578#

580#
581# | # foreach(VAR, (LIST), STMT)
582# | m4_define([foreach],
583# |        [m4_pushdef([$1])_foreach([$1], [$2], [$3])m4_popdef([$1])])

590#
591# But then if you run
592#
593# | m4_define(a, 1)
594# | m4_define(b, 2)
595# | m4_define(c, 3)

633# with always using an outermost pair of parens and an outermost pair

771## 8. Defining macros with bells and whistles.  ##
772## -------------------------------------------- ##
773
774# `m4_defun' is basically `m4_define' but it equips the macro with the
775# needed machinery for `m4_require'.  A macro must be m4_defun'd if
776# either it is m4_require'd, or it m4_require's.
777#
778# Two things deserve attention and are detailed below:
779#  1. Implementation of m4_require
780#  2. Keeping track of the expansion stack
781#
782# 1. Implementation of m4_require
783# ===============================
784#
785# Of course m4_defun AC_PROVIDE's the macro, so that a macro which has
786# been expanded is not expanded again when m4_require'd, but the
787# difficult part is the proper expansion of macros when they are
788# m4_require'd.
789#
790# The implementation is based on two ideas, (i) using diversions to
791# prepare the expansion of the macro and its dependencies (by Fran�ois
792# Pinard), and (ii) expand the most recently m4_require'd macros _after_
793# the previous macros (by Axel Thimm).
794#
795#
796# The first idea: why using diversions?
797# -------------------------------------
798#
799# When a macro requires another, the other macro is expanded in new
800# diversion, GROW.  When the outer macro is fully expanded, we first
801# undivert the most nested diversions (GROW - 1...), and finally
802# undivert GROW.  To understand why we need several diversions,
803# consider the following example:
804#
805# | m4_defun([TEST1], [Test...REQUIRE([TEST2])1])
806# | m4_defun([TEST2], [Test...REQUIRE([TEST3])2])
807# | m4_defun([TEST3], [Test...3])
808#
809# Because m4_require is not required to be first in the outer macros, we
810# must keep the expansions of the various level of m4_require separated.
811# Right before executing the epilogue of TEST1, we have:
812#
813# 	   GROW - 2: Test...3
814# 	   GROW - 1: Test...2
815# 	   GROW:     Test...1
816# 	   BODY:
817#
818# Finally the epilogue of TEST1 undiverts GROW - 2, GROW - 1, and
819# GROW into the regular flow, BODY.
820#
821# 	   GROW - 2:
822# 	   GROW - 1:
823# 	   GROW:
824# 	   BODY:        Test...3; Test...2; Test...1
825#
826# (The semicolons are here for clarification, but of course are not
827# emitted.)  This is what Autoconf 2.0 (I think) to 2.13 (I'm sure)
828# implement.
829#
830#
831# The second idea: first required first out
832# -----------------------------------------
833#
834# The natural implementation of the idea above is buggy and produces
835# very surprising results in some situations.  Let's consider the
836# following example to explain the bug:
837#
838# | m4_defun([TEST1],  [REQUIRE([TEST2a])REQUIRE([TEST2b])])
839# | m4_defun([TEST2a], [])
840# | m4_defun([TEST2b], [REQUIRE([TEST3])])
841# | m4_defun([TEST3],  [REQUIRE([TEST2a])])
842# |
843# | AC_INIT
844# | TEST1
845#
846# The dependencies between the macros are:
847#
848# 		 3 --- 2b
849# 		/        \              is m4_require'd by
850# 	       /          \       left -------------------- right
851# 	    2a ------------ 1
852#
853# If you strictly apply the rules given in the previous section you get:
854#
855# 	   GROW - 2: TEST3
856# 	   GROW - 1: TEST2a; TEST2b
857# 	   GROW:     TEST1
858# 	   BODY:
859#
860# (TEST2a, although required by TEST3 is not expanded in GROW - 3
861# because is has already been expanded before in GROW - 1, so it has
862# been AC_PROVIDE'd, so it is not expanded again) so when you undivert
863# the stack of diversions, you get:
864#
865# 	   GROW - 2:
866# 	   GROW - 1:
867# 	   GROW:
868# 	   BODY:        TEST3; TEST2a; TEST2b; TEST1
869#
870# i.e., TEST2a is expanded after TEST3 although the latter required the
871# former.
872#
873# Starting from 2.50, uses an implementation provided by Axel Thimm.
874# The idea is simple: the order in which macros are emitted must be the
875# same as the one in which macro are expanded.  (The bug above can
876# indeed be described as: a macro has been AC_PROVIDE'd, but it is
877# emitted after: the lack of correlation between emission and expansion
878# order is guilty).
879#
880# How to do that?  You keeping the stack of diversions to elaborate the
881# macros, but each time a macro is fully expanded, emit it immediately.
882#
883# In the example above, when TEST2a is expanded, but it's epilogue is
884# not run yet, you have:
885#
886# 	   GROW - 2:
887# 	   GROW - 1: TEST2a
888# 	   GROW:     Elaboration of TEST1
889# 	   BODY:
890#
891# The epilogue of TEST2a emits it immediately:
892#
893# 	   GROW - 2:
894# 	   GROW - 1:
895# 	   GROW:     Elaboration of TEST1
896# 	   BODY:     TEST2a
897#
898# TEST2b then requires TEST3, so right before the epilogue of TEST3, you
899# have:
900#
901# 	   GROW - 2: TEST3
902# 	   GROW - 1: Elaboration of TEST2b
903# 	   GROW:     Elaboration of TEST1
904# 	   BODY:      TEST2a
905#
906# The epilogue of TEST3 emits it:
907#
908# 	   GROW - 2:
909# 	   GROW - 1: Elaboration of TEST2b
910# 	   GROW:     Elaboration of TEST1
911# 	   BODY:     TEST2a; TEST3
912#
913# TEST2b is now completely expanded, and emitted:
914#
915# 	   GROW - 2:
916# 	   GROW - 1:
917# 	   GROW:     Elaboration of TEST1
918# 	   BODY:     TEST2a; TEST3; TEST2b
919#
920# and finally, TEST1 is finished and emitted:
921#
922# 	   GROW - 2:
923# 	   GROW - 1:
924# 	   GROW:
925# 	   BODY:     TEST2a; TEST3; TEST2b: TEST1
926#
927# The idea, is simple, but the implementation is a bit evolved.  If you
928# are like me, you will want to see the actual functioning of this
929# implementation to be convinced.  The next section gives the full
930# details.
931#
932#
933# The Axel Thimm implementation at work
934# -------------------------------------
935#
936# We consider the macros above, and this configure.ac:
937#
938# 	    AC_INIT
939# 	    TEST1
940#
941# You should keep the definitions of _m4_defun_pro, _m4_defun_epi, and
942# m4_require at hand to follow the steps.
943#
944# This implements tries not to assume that of the current diversion is
945# BODY, so as soon as a macro (m4_defun'd) is expanded, we first
946# record the current diversion under the name _m4_divert_dump (denoted
947# DUMP below for short).  This introduces an important difference with
948# the previous versions of Autoconf: you cannot use m4_require if you
949# were not inside an m4_defun'd macro, and especially, you cannot
950# m4_require directly from the top level.
951#
952# We have not tried to simulate the old behavior (better yet, we
953# diagnose it), because it is too dangerous: a macro m4_require'd from
954# the top level is expanded before the body of `configure', i.e., before
955# any other test was run.  I let you imagine the result of requiring
956# AC_STDC_HEADERS for instance, before AC_PROG_CC was actually run....
957#
958# After AC_INIT was run, the current diversion is BODY.

961#   diversion stack:     BODY |-
962#

964# The prologue of TEST1 sets AC_DIVERSION_DUMP, which is the diversion
965# where the current elaboration will be dumped, to the current
966# diversion.  It also m4_divert_push to GROW, where the full
967# expansion of TEST1 and its dependencies will be elaborated.
968#   DUMP:       BODY

970#   diversions: GROW, BODY |-

1067# 2. Keeping track of the expansion stack
1068# =======================================
1069#
1070# When M4 expansion goes wrong it is often extremely hard to find the
1071# path amongst macros that drove to the failure.  What is needed is
1072# the stack of macro `calls'. One could imagine that GNU M4 would
1073# maintain a stack of macro expansions, unfortunately it doesn't, so
1074# we do it by hand.  This is of course extremely costly, but the help
1075# this stack provides is worth it.  Nevertheless to limit the
1076# performance penalty this is implemented only for m4_defun'd macros,
1077# not for define'd macros.
1078#
1079# The scheme is simplistic: each time we enter an m4_defun'd macros,
1080# we prepend its name in m4_expansion_stack, and when we exit the
1081# macro, we remove it (thanks to pushdef/popdef).
1082#
1083# In addition, we want to use the expansion stack to detect circular
1084# m4_require dependencies.  This means we need to browse the stack to
1085# check whether a macro being expanded is m4_require'd.  For ease of
1086# implementation, and certainly for the benefit of performances, we
1087# don't browse the m4_expansion_stack, rather each time we expand a
1088# macro FOO we define _m4_expanding(FOO).  Then m4_require(BAR) simply
1089# needs to check whether _m4_expanding(BAR) is defined to diagnose a
1090# circular dependency.
1091#
1092# To improve the diagnostic, in addition to keeping track of the stack
1093# of macro calls, m4_expansion_stack also records the m4_require
1094# stack.  Note that therefore an m4_defun'd macro being required will
1095# appear twice in the stack: the first time because it is required,
1096# the second because it is expanded.  We can avoid this, but it has
1097# two small drawbacks: (i) the implementation is slightly more
1098# complex, and (ii) it hides the difference between define'd macros
1099# (which don't appear in m4_expansion_stack) and m4_defun'd macros
1100# (which do).  The more debugging information, the better.
