Only allow string mutation that is certain not to require string data to be resized and reallocated: writing bytes into a unibyte string, and changing ASCII to ASCII in a multibyte string. This ensures that mutation will never transform a unibyte string to multibyte, that the size of a string in bytes never changes, and that the byte offsets of characters remain the same. Most importantly, it removes a long-standing obstacle to reform of string representation and allow for future performance improvements. * src/data.c (Faset): Disallow resizing string mutation. * src/fns.c (clear_string_char_byte_cache): * src/alloc.c (resize_string_data): Remove. * test/src/data-tests.el (data-aset-string): New test. * test/lisp/subr-tests.el (subr--subst-char-in-string): Skip error cases. * test/src/alloc-tests.el (aset-nbytes-change): Remove test that is no longer relevant. * doc/lispref/strings.texi (Modifying Strings): * doc/lispref/sequences.texi (Array Functions): * doc/lispref/text.texi (Substitution): Update manual. * etc/NEWS: Announce. |
