- provides expect,printerr_match for matching printerr output
- fails tests if printerr is called outside the printerr_match wrapper
- changes api of expect.error_match to mirror the new printerr_match api
This allows tests to test these functions without needing to include the test
wrapper directly (now ci/test.lua, formerly test/main.lua). Hopefully this
location is also more stable, similar to other libraries that are already tested.
this allows callers of Buildings::setSize() to "pre-initialize" the
extents to declare non-rectangular structures. this allows quickfort to
create non-rectangular stockpiles, farm plots, zones, etc. the extents
are still reset as before if the size of the building doesn't match the
caller's expectations.
this commit also fixes a memory leak when setSize() allocates memory for
extents, but the memory is not deallocated if the building is ultimately
invalid for some reason.
Objects with links like `job` output way too much. With this change, it's possible to provide an optional filter and exclude the `list_link`.
```
[lua]# j = dfhack.gui.getSelectedJob()
[lua]# printall_recurse(j, {[tostring(j.list_link)]=true, [tostring(j.pos)]=true})
```
I often want to see multiple items quickly when trying to figure out
what states actually matter to an issue that I debug. I decided to make
it easier to quickly dump df structures with substructures and
containers. It will generate large amount of data which can be sometimes
slow to process manually. But processing can be automated using
dfhack-run lua ^<df data to inspect> and pipe to other tools (eg grep,
sed, perl, sort, uniq etc)
Console::lineedit can return -1 to indicate input error and -2 to
indicate the program is closing. But most users don't check possible
unusual return values which can lead to exit hang.
Changes include
* table.getn(obj) -> #obj
* Making sure string.rep gets an integer parameter
* Optimized profiling hooks (call profiler cost from factor 40 to 10)
* Specialized parameter name lookup code for c++ __index metamod calls
* Collect source lines in time sampling variant
* Simplified prevent to always filter all children
