(in the long run..., billions of records) I guess the best alternative then is to use smob with e.g. a 4-word (SCM) vector. which implies 6 scm_t_bits, but if a 4 word vector is equally space efficient I may better go for that. On Tue, Oct 29, 2013 at 6:17 PM, Mark H Weaver wrote: > Rola

Sorry, double cells are even encouraged to use according the manual under "Allocating cells" (I had missed that) and no specific cares as long as they contain only SCM. On Tue, Oct 29, 2013 at 11:15 AM, Roland Orre wrote: > I consider using double cells for efficient implementat

are double cells safe to use?

2013-10-29 Thread Roland Orre
I consider using double cells for efficient implementation of binary trees. Is this safe? (i.e. no pre-assumptions made somewhere what these are used for) For prototyping I intended to add double-cons set-cbr! set-ccr! cbr ccr to the scheme level. Is this safe? They will only contain or refer to

for guile-2.0.9 OK, there is a Makefile examples/Makefile which is possibly intended to replace the separate makefiles in box, box-dynamic, box-dynamic-module but then the README files under the box directories need to be updated. On Thu, Jul 11, 2013 at 1:52 AM, Roland Orre wrote: > On Thu, Jul

Sabotage against guile users?

I now intended to start using guile again. I used guile daily for my R&D from 1995 to 2008. The last guile I built for was guile-1.8.5 However, my old module build does no longer work with guile-1.8.8 (the latest stable downloaded from savannah.gnu.org) Previously the guile dist contained an exam
