Eelco Dolstra 9fa07b376d * String/path concatenation operator (`+'). 2004-10-26 17:01:35 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra bbfdd64741 * Allow primops with more that 1 arguments. 2004-08-04 10:59:20 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 59b94ee18a * When something goes wrong in the evaluation of a Nix expression,
print a nice backtrace of the stack, rather than vomiting a gigantic
  (and useless) aterm on the screen.  Example:

    error: while evaluating file `.../pkgs/system/test.nix':
    while evaluating attribute `subversion' at `.../pkgs/system/all-packages-generic.nix', line 533:
    while evaluating function at `.../pkgs/applications/version-management/subversion/default.nix', line 1:
    assertion failed at `.../pkgs/applications/version-management/subversion/default.nix', line 13

  Since the Nix expression language is lazy, the trace may be
  misleading.  The purpose is to provide a hint as to the location of
  the problem.

Eelco Dolstra 9b44480612 * Use a map to lookup primops.
* Various performance improvements in the evaluator.
* Do not link against unused (and missing!) libraries (-lsglr, etc.).

Eelco Dolstra c4f7ae4aa5 * Verify that all variables in a Nix expression are defined. 2004-02-03 14:45:34 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra ac68840e79 * Refactoring: put the Nix expression evaluator in its own library so
that it can be used by multiple programs.
