2015-02-27GF shell: fixed problems with previous change of the -retain flaghallgren
Because the prompt included the name of the abstract syntax, the loading of the PGF was forced even if -retain was used. Even worse, if an error occured while loading the PGF, it was repeated and caught every time the prompt was printed, creating an infite loop. The solution is to not print the name of the abstract syntax when the grammar is imported with -retain, which is the way things were before anyway.
2015-02-27GF shell: create a PGF also when the -retain flag is usedhallgren
The commands available in the shell after import -retain are now a superset of the commands available after import without -retain. The PGF is created lazily, so there should be no performance penalty if the PGF isn't needed. If there are errors, they won't be reported until a command that uses the PGF is entered.

2013-11-05Eliminate mutual dependencies between the GF compiler and the PGF libraryhallgren
+ References to modules under src/compiler have been eliminated from the PGF library (under src/runtime/haskell). Only two functions had to be moved (from GF.Data.Utilities to PGF.Utilities) to make this possible, other apparent dependencies turned out to be vacuous. + In gf.cabal, the GF executable no longer directly depends on the PGF library source directory, but only on the exposed library modules. This means that there is less duplication in gf.cabal and that the 30 modules in the PGF library will no longer be compiled twice while building GF. To make this possible, additional PGF library modules have been exposed, even though they should probably be considered for internal use only. They could be collected in a PGF.Internal module, or marked as "unstable", to make this explicit. + Also, by using the -fwarn-unused-imports flag, ~220 redundant imports were found and removed, reducing the total number of imports by ~15%.
2012-11-08Eliminate warnings about deprecated use of catch and tryhallgren
This is also needed for compatibility with GHC 7.6.
2012-09-26SIO bug fixhallgren
Line breaks were missing when capturing stdout. (putStrLn acted like putStr.)
2012-09-25GF.Infra.SIO.hs: adding the SIO monad (where S = Shell or Safe)hallgren
The SIO monad is a restriction of the IO monad with two purposes: + Access to arbitrary IO operations can be turned off by setting the environment variable GF_RESTRICTED. There is a limited set of IO operations that are considered safe and always allowed. + It allows output to stdout to be captured. This can be used in gf -server mode, where output of GF shell commands is made part of HTTP responses returned to clients.
