2025-08-19curses: fixed configuration for native netbsd-curses and ncurses (several ↵Robin Haberkorn1-1/+1
corner cases) * pkg-config check for `ncurses` fails if it failed previously for `ncursesw`. This is the case e.g. for ncurses from NetBSD's pkgsrc. * No longer assume that any libncurses is not enhanced (X/Open compatible). * SciTECO and Scinterm require to find a curses.h in the include paths. The ncurses check must therefore not be limited to the first best ncurses/ncurses.h and the like. * We now always check for X/Open compatibility and always require a curses.h in the standard directories or as given by pkg-config. * AX_WITH_CURSES was radically rewritten and is now called AX_WITH_NCURSES. * --with-interface=netbsd-curses gets its own detection code. It always requires a curses.h in the standard paths and a libcurses. It should now be fixed for real NetBSD installations if the ncurses port is installed as well. * Unified all of the curses-arguments to CURSES_CFLAGS and CURSES_LIBS. There is no reason we need PDCURSES_CFLAGS, XCURSES_CFLAGS etc.
2024-12-24added AX_WITH_CURSES for more robust ncurses checksRobin Haberkorn1-1/+1
* Turns out that on SunOS/OmniOS the ncurses port does not ship with a ncursesw pkg-config file, but the ncurses file is for a version, that does contain widechar support as well. * Instead of adding yet another recursive PKG_CHECK_MODULES() call, we now use the AX_WITH_CURSES() macro, which is probably more robust. This should at least fix ./configure on OmniOS. * It also adds a number of feature C macros, that could be useful to check in the future. * At the moment, we strive to support all X/Open-compatible Curses libraries, but both enhanced and color functions are required. Therefore plain SVr4 Curses is not supported. * source: https://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf-archive/ax_with_curses.html
2024-08-23fully support out of tree buildsRobin Haberkorn1-26/+39
* You no longer have to copy contrib/scintilla, contrib/scinterm and contrib/lexilla manually to the build directory. * It turns out, that Scintilla/Lexilla was supporting this since 2016. Scintilla allows pointing to a source directory (srdir) and Lexilla to a binary directory (DIR_O). * For Scinterm I opened a pull request in order to add srcdir/basedir variables: https://github.com/orbitalquark/scinterm/pull/21 * `make distcheck` is therefore now also fixed. * The FreeBSD package is now allowed to build out of source. I haven't tested it yet. * See also https://github.com/ScintillaOrg/lexilla/issues/266

2021-10-13build Lexilla with BASE_FLAGS='' - fixes Mac OS buildsRobin Haberkorn1-0/+6
* The default build system includes -arch arm64 -arch x86_64 (builds for both platforms). These flags are apparently not supported by the SDK on the build server.

2021-10-11upgraded to Scintilla 5.1.3 and Scinterm 3.1Robin Haberkorn1-0/+73
* Previous Scintilla version was 3.6.4 and Scinterm was 1.7 (with lots of custom patches). All of the patches are now either irrelevant or have been merged upstream. * Since Scintilla 5 requires C++17, this increases the minimum GCC version at least to 5.0. We may actually require even newer versions. * I could not upgrade the scintilla-mirror (which was imported from Mercurial), so the old sciteco-dev branch was renamed to sciteco-dev-pre-v2.0.0, master was deleted and I reimported the entire Scintilla repo using git-remote-hg. This means that scintilla-mirror now contains two entirely separate trees. But it is still possible to clone old SciTECO repos. * The strategy/workflow of maintaining hotfix branches on scintilla-mirror has been changed. Instead of having one sciteco-dev branch that is rebased onto new Scintilla upstream releases and tagging SciTECO releases in scintilla-mirror (to keep the commits referenced), we now create a branch for every Scintilla version we are based on (eg. sciteco-rel-5-1-3). This branch is never rebased or deleted. Therefore, we are guaranteed to be able to clone arbitrary SciTECO repo commits - not only releases. Releases no longer have to be tagged in scintilla-mirror. On the downside, fixup commits may accumulate in these new branches. They can only be squashed once a new branch for a new Scintilla release is created (e.g. by cherry-picking followed by rebase). * Scinterm does no longer have to reside in the Scintilla subdirectory, so we added it as a regular submodule. There are no more recursive submodules. The Scinterm build system has not been improved at all, but we use a trick based on VPATH to build Scinterm in scintilla/bin/. * Scinterm is now in Git and we reference the upstream repo for the time being. We might mirror it and apply the same branching workflow as with Scintilla if necessary. The scinterm-mirror repository still exists but has not been touched. We will also have to rewrite its master branch as it was a non-reproducible Mercurial import. * Scinterm now also comes with patches for Scintilla which we simply applied on our sciteco-rel-5-1-3 branch. * Scintilla 5 outsourced its lexers into the Lexilla project. We added it as yet another submodule. * All submodules have been moved into contrib/. * The Scintilla API for setting lexers has consequently changed. We now have to call SCI_SETILEXER(0, CreateLexer(name)). As I did not want to introduce a separate command for setting lexers, <ES> has been extended to allow setting lexers by name with the SCI_SETILEXER message which effectively replaces SCI_SETLEXERLANGUAGE. * The lexer macros (SCLEX_...) no longer serve any purpose - they weren't used in the SciTECO standard library anyway - and have consequently been removed from symbols-scilexer.c. The style macros from SciLexer.h (SCE_...) are theoretically still useful - even though they are not used by our current color schemes - and have therefore been retained. They can be specified as wParam in <ES>. * <ES> no longer allows symbolic constants for lParam. This never made any sense since all supported symbols were always wParam. * Scinterm supports new native cursor modes. They are not used for the time being and the previous CARETSTYLE_BLOCK_AFTER caret style is configured by default. It makes no sense to enable native cursor modes now since the command line should have a native cursor but is not yet a Scintilla view. * The Scintilla upgrade performed much worse than before, so some optimizations will be necessary.
