+Features you cannot find in the doco as working, should be mentioned
+here.
This is an assorted collection of stuff that will be done, might be
done, or is an idea that I want to think about
Most of the items are marked in the code as well, with full explanation.
grep for TODO and ugh/ugr/urg
- * fix plain tex footer line.
- * portable libs for flowerlib/lilylib
+**************
+I also found a few bugs:
- * install TeX stuff into tex/generic directory.
+* The examples in input/test/bar-scripts.ly and score-bar-scripts.ly
+ don't work. The problem seems to be that you can't define a
+ a score identifier and then use it in the \score block.
+* Instrument names in the margin. Example:
+ input/test/hara-kiri.ly. The text should of course
+ be to the left of the staff lines.
+**************
- * make GNU style webpages.
+ * check widths of TFM, something's wrong here.
- * There seems to be an install error in lilypond-1.0.0. Most of the
- files in the "init" directory don't get installed in the
- /usr/local/share/lilypond directory. The files installed are of
- the form feta*.ly. In particular init.ly doesn't get installed.
- I installed the files by hand and then the system seems to work.
+ * hang Item on Spanner
- * I things it's more than appropriate for an GNU project to ship Info
- files (and manpages) with the source package. The "Standard" tells to
- do so (ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/standards/standards.text):
+ * junk Text_def, use G_text_item in stead.
+ * remove Interval dim_ from Dimension_cache and rename the struct.
- * a `make check' target (without installing stuff!)
+ * do --safe for PS output?
- * midi_instrument -> midiInstrument
+ * staff_margin (with a partial measure.)
- * horizontal centering of dynamics
+ * fix "I've been drinking too much"
- * \font\fontA=feta20.afm (.afm?)
+ * add scripts to bars eg. |^"bla"
- * gzip RH manpage
+ * fix Staff_margin_engraver.
- * stable make/config stuff
+ * fix pletvisibility properties:
+ - bracket on/off/no-bracket-when-beam
+ - num on/off/no-num-when-beam
- * stemup/stemdown; see test/updown.fly
- - check examples; add \type Staff hither and thether
+ * fix: standchen.
- * $DEPENDENCIES_OUTPUT support
+ * junk backlinks?
- * use a fake-yodl.sh to mimick yodl when yodl is not installed
+ * junk text{sharp,flat,etc}
- * fix BUGs
+ * fix convert-mudela manpage
- * fix weird behaviour when .AFMs not found.

+> }
+
+Usually you can get away without having this interlinked structure.
+One piece of information you need when exporting objects to scheme is
+the smob tag for your class. You might store this value (a long) into
+a class static variable, or a file static variable. I'll use a class
+static variable in this example.
+
+I typically use code that works like this (untested code ahead):
+
+class Foo_class {
+ static long *Foo_smob_tag;
+ SCM obj; // representation as a scheme object, description comes later
+}
+
+// call this once on startup
+void init_Foo_class {
+ static scm_smobfuns type_rec;
+
+ type_rec.mark = foo_mark;
+ type_rec.free = foo_free;
+ type_rec.print = foo_display;
+ type_rec.equalp = 0;
+ Foo_class::Foo_smob_tag = new int(scm_new_smob(type_rec));
+}
+
+When you want to export an object to scheme, you put a pointer to the
+object itself in the cdr of the cell, and the tag in the car of the
+cell. The code looks like this:
+
+// Is this a Foo?
+static int
+foo_p(SCM obj)
+{
+ return(SCM_NIMP(obj) && SCM_CAR(obj) == Foo_class::Foo_smob_tag);
+}
+
+// given a Scheme representation, return, a C++ representation
+static Foo_class *
+foo_unbox(SCM obj)
+{
+ return((Foo_class*)SCM_CDR(obj));
+}
+
+// the SCM representation of the object is stored inside itself
+// this will become useful when destructor gets called
+static SCM
+foo_box(Foo_class *foo)
+{
+ SCM_DEFER_INTS;
+ SCM_NEWCELL(foo->obj);
+ SCM_SETCAR(foo->obj, Foo_class::Foo_smob_tag);
+ SCM_SETCDR(foo->obj, (SCM)foo);
+ SCM_ALLOW_INTS;
+ return foo->obj;
+}
+
+> C++ determines life time, so what is the strategy?
+
+What happens now when the destructor gets called? Lets set the cdr to
+NULL, and then check for that in all of the primitive functions that
+use your smob. We'll call this notion 'live'; a scheme object is
+'live' if the C++ representation still exists, it's dead if the C++
+object is gone. You can still have references to dead objects in
+scheme code; it's just an error to use them. This idea is stolen from
+Emacs's handling of buffers ('buffer-live-p' and friends).
+
+Add another function, foo_live_p:
+
+static int
+foo_live_p(SCM obj)
+{
+ return(foo_p(obj) && SCM_CDR(obj) != NULL);
+}
+
+In you destructor, you need to do:
+
+~Foo_class()
+{
+ SCM_CDR(this->obj, NULL);
+}
+
+When writing new primitives, now just check foo_live_p().
+
+I hope the above helps,
+
