There are many places where global variables are set or appended to. To reduce clutter and code size, encode the VAR_GLOBAL in the function name. The word Expand in the function names says that the variable name is expanded. In most of the cases, this is not necessary, but there are no corresponding functions Global_Set or Global_Append yet. Encoding the information whether the name is expanded or not in the function name will make inconsistencies obvious in future manual code reviews. Letting the compiler check this by using different types for unexpanded and expanded variable names is probably not worth the effort. There are still a few bugs to be fixed, such as in SetVar, which expands the variable name twice in a row. |

NetBSD
NetBSD is a free, fast, secure, and highly portable Unix-like Open Source operating system. It is available for a wide range of platforms, from large-scale servers and powerful desktop systems to handheld and embedded devices.
Building
You can cross-build NetBSD from most UNIX-like operating systems. To build for amd64 (x86_64), in the src directory:
./build.sh -U -u -j4 -m amd64 -O ~/obj release
Additional build information available in the BUILDING file.
Binaries
Testing
On a running NetBSD system:
cd /usr/tests; atf-run | atf-report
Troubleshooting
- Send bugs and patches via web form.
- Subscribe to the mailing lists. The netbsd-users list is a good choice for many problems; watch current-users if you follow the bleeding edge of NetBSD-current.
- Join the community IRC channel #netbsd @ freenode.
