Normally a single spell checker can't find all the mistakes or check all types of code.
These mistakes were found by another spell checker inside my editor with a more manual sift / find.
Instead of including `mruby/presym.h` everywhere, we provided the
fallback `mruby/presym.inc` under `include/mruby` directory, and specify
`-I<build-dir>/include` before `-I<top-dir>/include` in `presym.rake`.
So even when someone drops `-I<build-dir>/include` in compiler options,
it just compiles without failure.
In addition, update the documents referring `build_config.rb` which is
no longer used. The new `build_config.rb` describes the new configuration
structure in the comment.
- `mrb_check_intern()` to return `mrb_value`
- `mrb_intern_check()` to return `mrb_sym` [NEW]
Other new functions:
- `mrb_intern_check_cstr()`
- `mrb_intern_check_str()`
They used to return `mrb_value` but now return `mrb_sym` for consistency
with other `intern` functions. If symbols are not defined, `check`
functions return `0`, instead of `nil` in the past.
It causes API incompatibility but I believe few people use those
functions out of the core, and those changes are very easy to handle,
hopefully.
The addresses for packed inline symbols reference `mrb->symbuf` that
could be overridden by the later call of `mrb_sym2name_len`. Since
file names in call stack information are kept as symbols, keeping the
address in the C structures could cause problems like #4342.
This changes small incompatible changes in function prototypes:
* `mrb_parser_get_filename`: return value changed to `mrb_sym`.
* `mrb_debug_get_filename`: add `mrb_state*` as a first argument.
* `mrb_debug_get_line`: ditto.
I believe above functions are almost internal, and no third-party
mrbgem use them.
Now the method tables (in classes/modules and caches) keeps C function
pointers without wrapping in `struct RProc` objects. For the sake of
portability, `mrb_method_t` is represented by the struct and union, but
if the most significant bit of the pointer is not used by the platform,
`mrb_method_t` should be packed in `uintptr_t` to reduce memory usage.
`MRB_METHOD_TABLE_INLINE` is turned on by default for linux.
The change removes several internal instance variables used by
class name management. The variables `__classid__` and `__classpath__`
are no longer available. `__outer__` is used only for unnamed outer
classes/modules (and will be removed after they are named).
[Important note]
Along with this change we removed several public functions.
- mrb_class_outer_module()
- mrb_class_sym()
We believe no one have used those functions, but if you do, please
ask us for the workaround.
