From 9095101743b2606fb1d5f7a5a1216f22d2fb2b4a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sean Dewar Date: Wed, 18 Nov 2020 03:11:00 +0000 Subject: vim-patch:8.1.0735: cannot handle binary data Problem: Cannot handle binary data. Solution: Add the Blob type. (Yasuhiro Matsumoto, closes vim/vim#3638) https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/6e5ea8d2a995b32bbc5972edc4f827b959f2702f Nvim-specific Blob conversions are implemented in future commits. Refactor write_blob() to use a FileDescriptor, as f_writefile() was refactored to use one (does not apply to read_blob()). Use var_check_lock() in f_add() for Blobs from v8.1.0897. Add a modeline to test_blob.vim and fix some doc typos. Include if_perl.txt's VIM::Blob() documentation. Interestingly, this function already worked before this port, as it just returns a Blob string literal, not an actual Blob object. N/A patches for version.c: vim-patch:8.1.0741: viminfo with Blob is not tested Problem: Viminfo with Blob is not tested. Solution: Extend the viminfo test. Fix reading a blob. Fixed storing a special variable value. https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/8c8b8bb56c724cc1bfc3d8520eec33f2d399697c vim-patch:8.1.1022: may use NULL pointer when out of memory Problem: May use NULL pointer when out of memory. (Coverity) Solution: Check for blob_alloc() returning NULL. https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/e142a9467a7f6845a426d8db6efedf246d3c13ac --- src/nvim/vim.h | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) (limited to 'src/nvim/vim.h') diff --git a/src/nvim/vim.h b/src/nvim/vim.h index c719c064e2..d84979f6fe 100644 --- a/src/nvim/vim.h +++ b/src/nvim/vim.h @@ -102,6 +102,7 @@ typedef enum { #define VAR_TYPE_FLOAT 5 #define VAR_TYPE_BOOL 6 #define VAR_TYPE_SPECIAL 7 +#define VAR_TYPE_BLOB 10 // values for xp_context when doing command line completion -- cgit
