===========================
cc-mode-1.98-pkg.tar.gz upstream version: 5.32.5

I'm giving this a try (am I the only one?) and run into weird problems, even in
non-cc-mode buffers. I added this to the top of c-before-change

(unless (or c-buffer-is-cc-mode ;; why is this happening in non-c-mode?
(c-called-from-text-property-change-p)

which so far seems to "fix the issue" - at least in non-cc-mode buffers.

The "weird issue" is something I haven't cared to debug further, but
it caused an error and this was the function I thought responsible
because of the backtrace.

What do you see? I've had some problems with various things but never
quite reproducible. And never at a time where I can look in to it. I
just need to get something done.

Hi,

Post by Raymond Toy
What are you trying? The c-before-change below?

The 1.98 cc-mode package. The below "fix" makes sure I don't run into
issues with errors in looking-at in non-cc-mode buffers. Due to index
out of bounds or wrong or missing RE. I don't care to debug it
further if I don't run into it again. I added the following "check"
for c-buffer-is-cc-mode.

What do you see? I've had some problems with various things but never
quite reproducible. And never at a time where I can look in to it. I
just need to get something done.

What I saw related to the fix is described above. Other issue follows.

The issues with cc-mode I get are quire reproducible, except they do
not manifest in a "fresh" process. So, for example when XEmacs can't
eval t (yes, this happens, see backtrace below). If I restart a new
process and start to edit a file, there are no issues; it only happens
when I have a mixture of modes and/or buffers -- but seems
consistently related to cc-mode or its dependencies.

Can it be because the package is compiled with 21.5 and not 21.4? Is
there an easy way to recompile the package? Or all packages?

Backtrace, from trying to enter javascript mode, I just ran into
before replying.

That could easily be. Why the effects would leak out of cc-mode and
into other modes I'm not sure.

There are a number of changes in (relatively) recent 21.5 that require
a certain amount of working around in older XEmacsen. (These have to
do with HyperSpec conforming implementations of Common Lisp constructs
such as multiple values, which requires C-level changes.)

Post by Johann 'Myrkraverk' Oskarsson

To recompile a package in place, dired the directory containing the
Lisp files, mark all .els, and do dired-byte-compile.

It's possible that doing byte-compile-file on a directory does the
right thing, but I don't recall offhand. Check the docstring.
