### Note: try not to do things that might be slow due to network
### latency (think NFS).  For example, retrieving a list of available
### packages is potentially slow for this reason.


### Status: I'm mostly happy with things.  The only obvious
### improvement I can think of is figuring out when we are in
### continuation mode (R prompt == "+") and make use of previous lines
### in that case.  I haven't found a way to do that.



### Note: sprintf seems faster than paste based on naive benchmarking:

## > system.time(for (i in 1:100000) sprintf("foo%sbar%d", letters[1:26], 1:26) )
##            user          system           total   user.children system.children
##           4.796           0.088           4.887           0.000           0.000
## > system.time(for (i in 1:100000) paste("foo", letters[1:26], "bar", 1:26) )
##            user          system           total   user.children system.children
##           8.300           0.028           8.336           0.000           0.000

### so will change all pastes to sprintf.  However, we need to be
### careful because 0 length components in sprintf will cause errors.



## modifies settings:

rc.settings <- function(ops, ns, args, func, ipck, S3, data, help, argdb, files)
{
    checkAndChange <- function(what, value)
    {
        if ((length(value) == 1) &&
            is.logical(value) &&
            !is.na(value))
            .CompletionEnv$settings[[what]] <- value
    }
    if (!missing(ops))   checkAndChange(  "ops",   ops)
    if (!missing(ns))    checkAndChange(   "ns",    ns)
    if (!missing(args))  checkAndChange( "args",  args)
    if (!missing(func))  checkAndChange( "func",  func)
    if (!missing(ipck))  checkAndChange( "ipck",  ipck)
    if (!missing(S3))    checkAndChange(   "S3",    S3)
    if (!missing(data))  checkAndChange( "data",  data)
    if (!missing(help))  checkAndChange( "help",  help)
    if (!missing(argdb)) checkAndChange("argdb", argdb)
    if (!missing(files)) checkAndChange("files", files)
    invisible()
}





## modifies options (adapted from similar functions in lattice):

rc.getOption <- function(name)
{
    get("options", envir = .CompletionEnv)[[name]]
}

rc.options <- function(...)
{
    new <- list(...)
    if (is.null(names(new)) && length(new) == 1 && is.list(new[[1]]))
        new <- new[[1]]
    old <- .CompletionEnv$options

    ## if no args supplied, returns full options list
    if (length(new) == 0) return(old)
    ## typically getting options
    nm <- names(new)
    if (is.null(nm)) return(old[unlist(new)])

    isNamed <- nm != ""
    if (any(!isNamed)) nm[!isNamed] <- unlist(new[!isNamed])

    ## so now everything has non-"" names, but only the isNamed ones
    ## should be set.  Everything should be returned though.

    retVal <- old[nm]
    names(retVal) <- nm
    nm <- nm[isNamed]
    .CompletionEnv$options <- modifyList(old, new[nm])
    invisible(retVal)
}



## summarizes results of last completion attempt:

rc.status <- function()
{
    ## eapply(.CompletionEnv, function(x) x, all.names = TRUE)
    as.list(.CompletionEnv)
}


### Everything below is unexported


## accessors called from C (also .completeToken below):

.assignToken         <- function(text)  assign("token",      text,  envir = .CompletionEnv)
.assignLinebuffer    <- function(line)  assign("linebuffer", line,  envir = .CompletionEnv)
.assignStart         <- function(start) assign("start",      start, envir = .CompletionEnv)
.assignEnd           <- function(end)   assign("end",        end,   envir = .CompletionEnv)
.setFileComp         <- function(state) assign("fileName",   state, envir = .CompletionEnv)

.retrieveCompletions <- function()  unique(get("comps",             envir = .CompletionEnv))

## Note: Inside the C code, we redefine
## rl_attempted_completion_function rather than
## rl_completion_entry_function, which means that if
## retrieveCompletions() returns a length-0 result, by default the
## fallback filename completion mechanism will be used.  This is not
## quite the best way to go, as in certain (most) situations filename
## completion will definitely be inappropriate even if no valid R
## completions are found.  We could return "" as the only completion,
## but that produces an irritating blank line on
## list-possible-completions (or whatever the correct name is).
## Instead (since we don't want to reinvent the wheel), we use the
## following scheme: If the character just preceding our token is " or
## ', we immediately go to file name completion.  If not, we do our
## stuff, and disable file name completion (using
## .Call("RCSuppressFileCompletion")) even if we don't find any
## matches.

## Note that under this scheme, filename completion will fail
## (possibly in unexpected ways) if the partial name contains 'unusual
## characters', namely ones that have been set (see C code) to cause a
## word break because doing so is meaningful in R syntax (e.g. "+",
## "-" ("/" is exempt (and treated specially below) because of its
## ubiquitousness in UNIX file names (where this package is most
## likely to be used))
