The Ruby bindings were missing a way to get all the tags of the
database. Now you should be able to access this with the public
instance method `all_tags` of your database object.
Example of use:
notmuchdb = Notmuch::Database.new path, { :create => false,
:mode => Notmuch::MODE_READ_ONLY }
my_tags = notmuchdb.all_tags
my_tags.each { |tag|
print tag
}
my_tags.destroy!
Amended by db: improve error reporting, add test
Some C compilers are stricter when it comes to (tentative) definition
of a variable -- in those compilers introducing variable without 'extern'
keyword always allocates new 'storage' to the variable and linking all
these modules fails due to duplicate symbols.
This is reimplementation of Charlie Allom's patch:
id:"1336481467-66356-1-git-send-email-charlie@mediasp.com",
written originally by Ali Polatel. This version has
more accurate commit message.
According to the common Ruby function naming convention, potentially
dangerous functions or functions which operate on the object itself are
suffixed with an exclamation mark. Both of these are true for object
destroying functions.
The following modules are affected:
- Notmuch::Directory
- Notmuch::FileNames
- Notmuch::Query
- Notmuch::Threads
- Notmuch::Thread
- Notmuch::Messages
- Notmuch::Message
- Notmuch::Tags
Let the user destroy objects that she wants explicitly.
It's not possible to specify the order objects are garbage collected.
