...ouch this was insidious: the STL implementation for list does not
return a pointer to the element just allocated, but rather retrieves
and dereferences the back() / front() iterator after returning from emplace_back|front()
...which in case of re-entrant allocations is something wildly different
than the initial allocation. Thus a *cheap* and dirty placeholder implementation
just using a STL container is not possible, and we need at least
to code up likewise cheesy placeholder implementation by hand.
- separate allocation and ctor all
- use an inline buffer in the STL container
- explicitly handle ctor failures to discard allocation
- NOT THREADSAFE and likely WASTFUL in terms of performance
==> MockSupport_test now back to GREEN after complete refactoring
usually the ID is hard coded, but when re-throwing errors, it might be
from "somewhere else", which means it is possibly a NULL ptr.
In those cases we fall back to the cannonical ID of the error class.
this includes a reorganisation concept for the header includes,
a minimal version (with minimal include dependencies), and
a generic ostream inserter operator<<
right now we have to defeat an unfortunate static assertion in
the standard library, which is expected to go away in the future.
We use a hack to hijack the problematic definition with the preprocessor,
which requires our header to be first.
to make them stand out more prominently, some entity comments
where started with a line of starts. Unfortunately, doxygen
(and javadoc) only recogise comments which are started exactly
with /**
This caused quite some comments to be ignored by doxygen.
Credits to Hendrik Boom for spotting this problem!
A workaround is to end the line of stars with *//**
the buildsystem will now pick up and link
all test cases according to the layer, e.g.
backend tests will automatically be linked
against the backend + library solely.
* error::Runtime exception class which transports the C error code
* lumiera::throwOnError() which throws when there is a pending
lumiera error, otherwise it does nothing
Seemingly I've hit a nasty problem here, because PlacementIndex
should return an Placement&, but this is being fetched
after-the fact from within the iterator.
