We reimplemented some functions which can now be found in the OCaml
stdlib since 4.01 (or earlier). The functions I have dropped are:
- String.map
- |>
- iteri (replaced by List.iteri)
- mapi (replaced by List.mapi)
Note that our definition of iteri was slightly wrong: the type of the
function parameter was too wide, allowing (int -> 'a -> 'b) instead of
(int -> 'a -> unit).
I also added this new function to the Std_utils.String module as an
export from stdlib String:
- String.iteri
Thanks: Pino Toscano
The new module ‘Std_utils’ contains only functions which are pure
OCaml and depend only on the OCaml stdlib. Therefore these functions
may be used by the generator.
The new module is moved to ‘common/mlstdutils’.
This also removes the "<stdlib>" hack, and the code which copied the
library around.
Also ‘Guestfs_config’, ‘Libdir’ and ‘StringMap’ modules are moved
since these are essentially the same.
The bulk of this change is just updating files which use
‘open Common_utils’ to add ‘open Std_utils’ where necessary.
For a very long time we have maintained two sets of utility functions,
in mllib/common_utils.ml and generator/utils.ml. This changes things
so that the same set of utility functions can be shared with both
directories.
It's not possible to use common_utils.ml directly in the generator
because it provides several functions that use modules outside the
OCaml stdlib. Therefore we add some lightweight post-processing which
extracts the functions using only the stdlib:
(*<stdlib>*)
...
(*</stdlib>*)
and creates generator/common_utils.ml and generator/common_utils.mli
from that. The effect is we only need to write utility functions
once.
As with other tools, we still have generator-specific utility
functions in generator/utils.ml.
Also in this change:
- Use String.uppercase_ascii and String.lowercase_ascii in place
of deprecated String.uppercase/String.lowercase.
- Implement String.capitalize_ascii to replace deprecated
String.capitalize.
- Move isspace, isdigit, isxdigit functions to Char module.
This commit models libvirt authentication events through the API,
adding one new event (GUESTFS_EVENT_LIBVIRT_AUTH) and several new
APIs:
guestfs_set_libvirt_supported_credentials
guestfs_get_libvirt_requested_credentials
guestfs_get_libvirt_requested_credential_prompt
guestfs_get_libvirt_requested_credential_challenge
guestfs_get_libvirt_requested_credential_defresult
guestfs_set_libvirt_requested_credential
See the documentation and example which shows how to use the new API.
This commit also changes existing calls to virConnectOpen* within the
library so that the new API is used.
Also included is an example (but not a test, because it's hard to see
how to automatically test the libvirt API).
This is a simple renaming of the files/modules.
Note that in OCaml, module names are derived from filenames by
capitalizing the first letter. Thus the old module names had the form
"Generator_api_versions". The new modules names have the form
"Api_versions".
