Branch: CURRENT, Version: 3.2nb1, Package name: gperf-3.2nb1, Maintainer: pkgsrc-users

The GPERF program creates perfect hash functions. From the author:

While teaching a data structures course at University of California,
Irvine, I developed a program called GPERF that generates perfect hash
functions for sets of key words. A perfect hash function is simply:

A hash function and a data structure that allows
recognition of a key word in a set of words using
exactly 1 probe into the data structure.

Output from the GPERF program is used to recognize reserved words in
the GNU C, GNU C++, and GNU Pascal compilers, as well as with the GNU
indent program.

gperf: merge upstream patch improving compatibility with c++ code

Bump PKGREVISION.

Log message:
gperf: update to 3.2.

Remove ancient unexplained patch.

New in 3.2:
* The input file may now use Windows line terminators (CR/LF) instead of
  Unix line terminators (LF).
  Note: This is an incompatible change. If you want to use a keyword that
  ends in a CR byte, such as xyz<CR>, write it as "xyz\r".
* The generated code avoids several types of warnings:
  - "implicit fallthrough" warnings in 'switch' statements.
  - "unused parameter" warnings regarding 'str' or 'len'.
  - "missing initializer for field ..." warnings.
  - "zero as null pointer constant" warnings.

All checksums have been double-checked against existing RMD160 and

Log message:
all: migrate several HOMEPAGEs to https

pkglint --only "https instead of http" -r -F

With manual adjustments afterwards since pkglint 19.4.4 fixed a few
indentations in unrelated lines.

This mainly affects projects hosted at SourceForce, as well as
freedesktop.org, CTAN and GNU.

Log message:
Updated gperf to 3.1.

Add test target.

New in 3.1:
* The generated C code is now in ANSI-C by default. If you want to support
  pre-ANSI-C compilers, you need to provide the option --language=C on the
  command line or %language=C in the source file.
* The 'len' parameter of the hash function and of the lookup function is now
  of type 'size_t' instead of 'unsigned int'. This makes it safe to call these
  functions with strings of length > 4 GB, on 64-bit machines.
* Added option --constants-prefix.
* Added declaration %define constants-prefix.

SHA1 digests retained for now as an audit trail.
