+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c:
+ * tests/expr-old.test: Re-wrote Tcl's [expr rand()] and
+ [expr srand($seed)] implementations, fixing a range error
+ on some 64-bit platforms. Added tests that detect the bug.
+ The rewrite changes the seed -> sequence map on 64-bit
+ platforms, only for seed >= 2^31, a slight incompatibility.
+ [Bug 121072, Patch 102781]
+
+2000-12-10 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * library/init.tcl:
+ * library/msgcat/msgcat.tcl:
+ * library/msgcat/pkgIndex.tcl:
+ * library/opt/optparse.tcl:
+ * library/opt/pkgIndex.tcl: Where [uplevel] is used in a proc
+ to evaluate a Tcl built-in command in the caller's context,
+ the built-in commands are now fully namespace-qualified. This
+ prevents problems when the caller context is in a namespace where
+ the built-in command name has been used by a command in the
+ namespace. (For example, [::ns::set] might be called instead
+ of the intended [::set]). [Bug #119422, Patch #102545]
+
+2000-12-09 jeff hobbs <jhobbs@interwoven.com>
+
+ * win/tclWinTime.c (CalibrationThread): added lint return value to
+ prevent compiler warning. [Bug #125005]
+
+ * docs/scan.n:
+ * tests/scan.test:
+ * generic/tclScan.c (Tcl_ScanObjCmd): changed %o and %x to use
+ strtoul instead of strtol to correctly preserve scan<>format
+ conversion of large integers. [Patch #102663, Bug #124600]
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): Commited patch fixing
+ handling of {!<boolean>} in expressions. [Patch #102702]
+
+2000-12-08 jeff hobbs <jhobbs@interwoven.com>
+
+ * library/init.tcl: Added support for PATHEXT variable in
+ auto_execok, recognizing the proper set of executable extensions
+ on Windows. [Patch #102719]
+
+2000-12-08 Andreas Kupries <a.kupries@westend.com>
+
+ * generic/tclEncoding.c (LoadTableEncoding): Changed dangerous
+ code to something less critical. This fixes bug 119417, part A
+ without affecting the speed when loading encodings.
+
+2000-12-08 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
+
+ * doc/open.n: Added xref to fconfigure and advice on the opening
+ of binary files. Should help prevent a recurrence of bugs like
+ #124558
+
+2000-12-07 jeff hobbs <jhobbs@interwoven.com>
+
+ * generic/tcl.h: added note about need to updated
+ library/dde/pkgIndex.tcl with minor version increment.
+
+ * library/dde/pkgIndex.tcl: updated to use 84 version to reflect
+ the makefile. Should probably be updated to use its real version
+ at some point. [Patch #102560, Bug #119421]
+
+2000-12-06 eric melski <ericm@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * generic/tcl.h (attemptckalloc): Fixed typo for #define of
+ attemptckalloc (was defined to Tcl_AttempDbCkalloc, should have
+ been Tcl_AttemptDbCkalloc). [Bug: 124384]
+
+ * generic/tclCkalloc.c: Added
+ TCL_MEM_DEBUG versions of Tcl_AttemptDbCkrealloc and
+ Tcl_AttemptDbCkalloc. [Bug: 124384].
+
+2000-11-24 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): Logical negation "!"
+ can now handle string booleans, provided those values are placed
+ in variables.
+
+ * tests/expr.test (expr-13.17): Check that [expr {!$var}] can
+ negate the string-versions of booleans "yes", "false", etc.
+
+ * library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl (getMatchingFiles,
+ getMatchingDirectories):
+ * tools/man2html.tcl (doDir):
+ * tools/man2help.tcl (doDir):
+ * library/package.tcl (tclPkgUnknown,tclMacPkgSearch):
+ * library/safe.tcl (AddSubDirs): [glob] uses -directory instead of
+ unsafe [file join] to fix Bug #123313
+
+ * generic/tclIndexObj.c:
+ * generic/tclTestObj.c (TestindexobjCmd): Changed internal
+ representation of index objects to fix Bug #119082; fix
+ shouldn't be visible to outside world...
+
+ * generic/tclTest.c (TestGetIndexFromObjStructObjCmd):
+ * tests/indexObj.test: (indexObj-6.*) Added to test for presence
+ of Bug #119082.
+
+2000-11-23 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
+
+ * generic/tclCmdIL.c (Tcl_LsortObjCmd): Fixed memory leak from Bug
+ #119398
+
+ * library/init.tcl (unknown): Added specific level parameters to
+ all uplevel invokations to boost performance; didn't dare touch
+ the "namespace inscope" stuff though, since it looks sensitive
+ to me! Should fix Bug #123217, though testing is tricky...
+
+2000-11-21 Andreas Kupries <a.kupries@westend.com>
+
+ * All of the changes below are described in TIP #7 ~ Specification
+ and result from the application of the patch contained
+ therein. Creator of the patch is Kevin Kenny
+ <kennykb@crd.ge.com>. The patch used here is actually a bit
+ different. Two MS specific constant values (format FOOui64) were
+ replaced with a more portable formatting of the values and an
+ additional cast to LONGLONG. My cross-compiling gcc was unable to
+ process the original form. The SF Id of the patch is 102459.
+
+ * tclWinTime.c: Add to the static data a set of variables that
+ manage the phase-locked techniques, including a
+ ''CRITICAL_SECTION'' to guard them so that multi-threaded code
+ is stable.
+
+ * tclWinTime.c: Modify ''TclpGetSeconds'' to call ''TclpGetTime''
+ and return the 'seconds' portion of the result. This change is
+ necessary to make sure that the two times are consistent near
+ the rollover from one second to another.
+
+ * tclWinTime.c: Modify ''TclpGetClicks'' to use TclpGetTime to
+ determine the click count as a number of microseconds.
+
+ * tclWinTime.c: Modify ''TclpGetTime'' to return the time as
+ M*Q+B, where Q is the result of ''QueryPerformanceCounter'', and
+ M and B are variables maintained by the phase-locked loop to
+ keep the result as close as possible to the system clock. The
+ ''TclpGetTime'' call will also launch the phase-lock management
+ in a separate thread the first time that it is invoked. If the
+ performance counter is unavailable, or if its frequency is not
+ one of the two common 8254-compatible rates, then
+ ''TclpGetTime'' will return the result of ''ftime'' as it does
+ in Tcl 8.3.2.
+
+ * tclWinTime.c: Add the clock calibration procedure. The
+ calibration is somewhat complex; to save space, the reader is
+ referred to the reference implementation for the details of how
+ the time base and frequency are maintained.
+
+ * tclWinNotify.c: Modify ''Tcl_Sleep'' to test that the process
+ has, in fact, slept for the requisite time by calling
+ ''TclpGetTime'' and comparing with the desired time. Otherwise,
+ roundoff errors may cause the process to awaken early.
+
+ * tclWinTest.c: Add a ''testwinclock'' command. This command
+ returns a four element list comprising the seconds and
+ microseconds portions of the system clock and the seconds and
+ microseconds portions of the Tcl clock.
+
+ * winTime.test: Add to the test suite a test that makes sure that
+ the Tcl clock stays within 1.1 ms of the system clock over the
+ duration of the test.
+
+2000-11-21 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
+
+ * doc/global.n:
+ * doc/upvar.n:
+ * doc/variable.n: Improved documentation to mention that variables
+ so created are listed in [info locals] and added a few more
+ cross-links between these commands. Fixes bug #119387
+
+2000-11-17 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
+
+ * tests/safe.test: (safe-4.3):
+ * generic/tclVar.c (TclLookupVar): Changed again. Now passes all
+ the tests, though one needed modifying since it required the
+ wrong answer. (Why on earth do we have inline modification of
+ argument strings? This sort of thing is horrendous to debug and
+ doesn't work well in a multithreaded environment!) Fixes bug
+ 119192.
+
+ * tests/var.test: (var-1.19) If my attempts to fix the problem
+ aren't right yet, my attempts to describe it look pretty good to
+ me...
+
+2000-11-16 Andreas Kupries <a.kupries@westend.com>
+
+ * win/tclWinPort.h (line 69): Changed reference to winsock2.h into
+ winsock.h. This was a leftover from a foray into using winsock
+ version 2 (History lesson from Scott Redman and Jeff
+ Hobbs). This code was no problem when compiling Tcl itself, but
+ could trip extensions. Fixes bug 122568.
+
+2000-11-15 jeff hobbs <jeff.hobbs@acm.org>
+
+ * unix/Makefile.in: removed bp.c references (hasn't existed in a
+ long time). Corrected 'make dist' to make dist with unversioned
+ library directories (same as out of cvs), so make install works
+ correctly with either source tree.
+
+2000-11-15 jeff hobbs <jeff.hobbs@acm.org>
+
+ * generic/tclVar.c (TclLookupVar): reverted fix below as it broke
+ all other array unset error reporting. Bug-119192 is still
+ open.
+
+2000-11-15 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
+
+ * generic/tclVar.c (TclLookupVar): Changed references to part2 to
+ use elName instead in various error message generating spots, so
+ as to fix Bug-119192.
+
+2000-11-03 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * win/.cvsignore: Removed 'configure' from the glob list now
+ that it's included.
+
+2000-11-03 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ 8.4a2 RELEASE
+
+ * unix/Makefile.in (install-libraries, dist):
+ * win/makefile.vc (install-libraries):
+ * win/Makefile.in (install-libraries): updated to install
+ unversioned library directories into versioned directories.
+
+ * tools/tcl.wse.in: updated for unversioning of library dirs
+
+ * unix/mkLinks: updated mkLinks with latest doc updates
+
+ * doc/Tcl_Main.3: added docs for Tcl_SetMainLoop
+
+ * generic/tclStubInit.c:
+ * generic/tclDecls.h:
+ * generic/tcl.decls: added Tcl_SetMainLoop proc that allows people
+ to set a main loop that will run for tclsh.
+ * generic/tcl.h: added Tcl_MainLoopProc typedef
+ * generic/tclMain.c (Tcl_SetMainLoop, StdinProc, Prompt): new
+ StdinProc and Prompt static procs and Tcl_SetMainLoop stubs proc.
+ The first two handle a fileevent based prompt (taken from
+ tkMain.c). Tcl_SetMainLoop enables the interactive setting of a
+ main loop procedure. This enables Tk to be a loadable package.
+
+2000-11-02 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * generic/tclEvent.c: tclLibraryPath Tcl_Obj didn't have a way
+ to share its data among threads. This caused Tcl_Init() to
+ always fail in threads. Added a way to pass the data around
+ with a global char*. [BUG: 5301]
+
+2000-11-02 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * unix/configure:
+ * unix/dltest/configure:
+ * win/configure:
+ * tools/configure: checked in configure scripts so people doing
+ CVS checkouts aren't required to have autoconf. Changes to
+ configure.in in the future will require the corresponding
+ configure script to also be re-autoconf'ed and checked in.
+
+ * win/makefile.vc:
+ * win/tcl.m4: makefile fixes for Win64 support
+
+ * generic/tclIndexObj.c (Tcl_GetIndexFromObjStruct): minor cast
+ changes.
+
+2000-11-01 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * unix/tcl.m4: removed use of -lbsd and -ldl for AIX-5.
+
+ * tests/subst.test: added tests for non-zero return code handling
+ by subst.
+ * generic/tclParse.c (Tcl_EvalEx): corrected handling of non-zero,
+ non-error return code cases for subst. [BUG: 119829]
+
+ * generic/tclVar.c (TclVarTraceExists): Corrected excessive mem
+ use when info exists was called on a non-existent array element.
+ [BUG: 119213, 119336]
+
+2000-10-30 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * win/configure.in:
+ * win/Makefile.in:
+ * win/makefile.vc:
+ * win/tcl.rc:
+ * win/tclsh.rc: Added logic to derive filenames better in the resource
+ scripts based on compile options.
+
+2000-10-30 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * unix/tclUnixInit.c: added default encoding map from
+ "ja_JP.eucJP" to "euc-jp". (takahashi)
+
+ * tests/clock.test: corrected clock-2.* test numbering
+
+ * unix/configure.in (SC_TCL_LINK_LIBS): removed code that was
+ commented out (it had been moved to tcl.m4's SC_TCL_LINK_LIBS
+ already).
+
+ * unix/tcl.m4: consolidated gettimeofday check for AIX.
+
+2000-10-27 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * unix/configure.in:
+ * unix/tcl.m4: added support for AIX-5.
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_NotifyChannel): removed #ifdef around code
+ for old channel structures, placed preserve/release around statePtr
+ * generic/tclIO.c (CloseChannel): the statePtr for a channel was
+ not being freed when the last channel in a stack was freed,
+ causing a mem leak.
+
+ * unix/tclUnixChan.c: updated channel types to strict
+ TCL_CHANNEL_VERSION_2 style to avoid compiler warnings. They work
+ either way, but this avoids compiler warnings (that worries people).
+
+2000-10-27 Jennifer Hom <jenn@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * library/tcltest1.0/tcltest.tcl: Removed a cd into the test
+ directory in runAllTests that screwed up the temporary directory
+ setting, effectively preventing users from running tests on
+ multiple platforms at the same time.
+
+2000-10-26 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * win/tclWinFile.c (TclpMatchFilesTypes): NULL was being set to
+ "attr" which was a DWORD. Changed NULL to zero because a 'void *'
+ can't be set to a DWORD to avoid the compiler warning.
+
+2000-10-24 Jennifer Hom <jenn@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * tests/all.tcl: Removed support for tcltest 1.0.
+
+ * tests/tcltest.test:
+ * library/tcltest1.0/tcltest.tcl:
+ * library/tcltest1.0/pkgIndex.tcl:
+ * docs/tcltest.n: Moved tcltest2 code so that it's the standard
+ version of tcltest. Removed all tcltest2 files
+ (tests/tcltest2.test, library/tcltest1.0/tcltest2.tcl,
+ docs/tcltest2.n).
+
+2000-10-20 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * win/tclWinFile.c (TclpMatchFilesTypes): made the stat call only
+ occur when necessary (for 'glob' command). Significantly speeds
+ up glob command from 8.3. [BUG: 6216]
+
+2000-10-19 Jennifer Hom <jenn@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * library/tcltest1.0/tcltest2.tcl:
+ * tests/tcltest2
+ * doc/tcltest2.n: Code and documentation cleanup. Modified
+ -verbose to take list of keywords as well as string of letters.
+ Removed Tcl version information from tcltest. Removed
+ tcltest::grep from tcltest package. Added optional 3rd directory
+ argument to makeFile/makeDirectory and removeFile/removeDirectory.
+
+ * tests/basic.test: Changed references to tcltest::tclVersion to
+ hardcoded numbers.
+ * generic/tcl.h: Changed reference to tcltest2.tcl and tcltest.tcl
+ in comments to tests/basic.test.
+
+2000-10-06 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * win/tclWinChan.c: moved Win2K bug case test with GetStdHandle()
+ from TclpGetDefaultStdChannel into Tcl_MakeFileChannel to enable
+ a more general method in detecting invalid OS handles rather than
+ just a specific known case. [BUG: 5971]
+
+2000-10-06 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * tests/cmdAH.test: extra tests for 'file channels' that include
+ multiple interpreter tests and channel sharing
+ * generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_GetChannelNamesEx): corrected function (and
+ consequently 'file channels') to return channels that are actually
+ registered for this specific interp, rather than this thread.
+
+ * doc/CrtChannel.3: fixed spelling mistakes
+
+2000-09-29 Jennifer Hom <jenn@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * library/tcltest1.0/tcltest2.tcl:
+ * tests/tcltest2.test:
+ * doc/tcltest2.n: Modified the new form of the test command to
+ accept both attribute-value pairs and command line options.
+ Updated the tests and the documentation for this new format.
+ Also changed the option names for the test command.
+
+2000-09-29 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * win/tclWinSerial.c (SerialGetOptionProc): corrected reporting of
+ space parity on Windows (Eason) [Bug 6057].
+
+ * win/Makefile.in: commented use of TESTFLAGS
+ * unix/Makefile.in: added TESTFLAGS to test target to
+ conform with Windows makefile and TEA style.
+
+ * tests/stack.test: prevented possible crash on systems with low
+ default stacksize (Tru64, AIX) in infinite recursion test. A
+ solution to check remaining stack space in the core is best, but
+ hard to do in a cross-platform manner.
+
+ * generic/tclIOGT.c (FLUSH_DELAY): renamed DELAY define to
+ FLUSH_DELAY to avoid defn conflict using Tru64's cc.
+
+2000-09-28 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * tools/tcl.wse.in: added tclPlatDecls.h and tkPlatDecls.h to the
+ Windows .exe install.
+
+ * tests/fCmd.test (fCmd-6.20): corrected test to remove
+ c:/tcl8975@ after creating it.
+
+ * tests/fileName.test: cleaned up the testing of glob patterns for
+ c:/globTest (Windows) to directly create/remove directory.
+
+2000-09-27 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * generic/tcl.decls:
+ * generic/tclIO.c: updated Tcl_IsChannelShared,
+ Tcl_IsChannelRegistered, Tcl_CutChannel, Tcl_SpliceChannel,
+ Tcl_IsChannelExisting, and Tcl_ClearChannelHandlers to conform to
+ the new stacked channel implementation. Their stub slots were
+ also moved to give preference to the new 8.3.2 stub functions.
+ This will cause an incompatability with 8.4a1 only.
+ (StopCopy): fixed a bug introduced by a partial fix in 8.3.2 that
+ didn't set nonBlocking correctly when resetting the flags for the
+ write side. [Bug: 6261]
+
+ * doc/ChnlStack.3:
+ * doc/CrtChannel.3:
+ * generic/tcl.decls:
+ * generic/tcl.h:
+ * generic/tclDecls.h:
+ * generic/tclIO.c:
+ * generic/tclIO.h:
+ * generic/tclIOGT.c:
+ * generic/tclInt.decls:
+ * generic/tclIntDecls.h:
+ * generic/tclStubInit.c:
+ * generic/tclTest.c:
+ * tests/iogt.test:
+ * unix/Makefile.in:
+ * win/Makefile.in:
+ * win/makefile.vc:
+ * win/tclConfig.sh.in:
+ * win/tclWinChan.c:
+ * win/tclWinConsole.c:
+ * win/tclWinPipe.c:
+ * win/tclWinSerial.c:
+ * win/tclWinSock.c: Up-port of changes made in 8.3.2 to 8.4a2 code
+ base. Most of these changes relate to the rewrite of the stacked
+ channel implementation, with a few config related fixes.
+
+ Following is an asynchronous include of the applicable ChangeLog
+ entries from 8.3.2.
+
+ ********************************************************
+ ** START OF ASYNCHRONOUS UP-PORT LOG (8.3.2 -> 8.4a2) **
+ ********************************************************
+
+2000-08-07 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * doc/ChnlStack.3:
+ * doc/CrtChannel.3: updated the docs to be aware of the
+ TCL_CHANNEL_VERSION_2 style of Tcl channels.
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_CreateChannel): added assertion to verify
+ that the new channel versioning will be binary compatible with
+ older channel drivers.
+
+2000-08-05 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * generic/tclIOGT.c (TclChannelTransform): fixed segfault that
+ would occur when transforming a channel with a proc that did not
+ yet exist. (Kupries)
+
+ * generic/tclTest.c (TestChannelCmd): added some lint init'ing of
+ statePtr and chan vars.
+
+2000-07-26 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * merged core-8-3-1-io-rewrite back into core-8-3-1-branch.
+ The core-8-3-1-io-rewrite branch should now be considered defunct.
+
+ * generic/tclStubInit.c:
+ * generic/tclDecls.h:
+ * generic/tcl.decls:
+ * generic/tcl.h:
+ * generic/tclIO.c: moved the Tcl_Channel* macros from tcl.h to
+ tclIO.c and made them proper stubbed functions. These are:
+ Tcl_ChannelName, Tcl_ChannelVersion, Tcl_ChannelBlockModeProc,
+ Tcl_ChannelCloseProc, Tcl_ChannelClose2Proc, Tcl_ChannelInputProc,
+ Tcl_ChannelOutputProc, Tcl_ChannelSeekProc, Tcl_ChannelSetOptionProc,
+ Tcl_ChannelGetOptionProc, Tcl_ChannelWatchProc,
+ Tcl_ChannelGetHandleProc, Tcl_ChannelFlushProc,
+ and Tcl_ChannelHandlerProc. These should be used to access the
+ Tcl_ChannelType structure instead of direct pointer dereferencing.
+
+ * tests/iogt.test: added RCS string, marked tests 2.* to be
+ unixOnly due to underlying system differences.
+
+2000-07-25 Andreas Kupries <a.kupries@westend.com>
+
+ * tests/iogt.test: (line 866f) New tests iogt-6.[01], highlighting
+ buffering trouble when stacking and unstacking transformations.
+ iogt-6.0 is solved, see the changes below. iogt-6.1 remains, for
+ now, due to the perceived complexity of solutions.
+
+ * generic/tclIO.h: (line 139f) struct Channel, added a buffer
+ queue, to hold data pushed back when stacking a transformation.
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c:
+ (line 91f, line 7434f) New internal function 'CopyBuffer'.
+ Derived from 'CopyAndTranslateBuffer', with translation
+ removed.
+ (line 1025f, line 1212f): Initialization of new queue.
+ (line 1164f, Tcl_StackChannel): Pushback of input queue.
+ (line 1293f, Tcl_UnstackChannel): Discard input and pushback.
+ (line 3748f, Tcl_ReadRaw): Modified to use data in the push back
+ area before going to the driver. Uses 'CopyBuffer', s.a.
+ (line 4702f, GetInput): Modified to use data in the push back
+ area before going to the driver.
+ (line 4867f, Tcl_Seek): Modified to take pushback of the topmost
+ channel in a stack into account.
+ (line 5620f, Tcl_InputBuffered): See above. Added
+ 'Tcl_ChannelBuffered'. Analogue to 'Tcl_InputBuffered' but for
+ the buffer area in the channel.
+
+ * generic/tcl.decls: New public API 'Tcl_ChannelBuffered'. S.a.
+
+2000-07-17 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * unix/Makefile.in:
+ * win/Makefile.in:
+ * win/makefile.vc: added tclIOGT.c to objects list to compile.
+
+ * generic/tclStubInit.c:
+ * generic/tclIntDecls.h:
+ * generic/tclInt.decls: commented out internal decls for
+ TclTestChannelCmd and TclTestChannelEventCmd as they were moved to
+ tclTest.c. Added new decls for TclChannelEventScriptInvoker and
+ TclChannelTransform.
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c (CloseChannel): stopped masking out of the
+ TCL_READABLE|TCL_WRITABLE bits from the state flags in
+ CloseChannel, instead adding extra intelligence to
+ CheckChannelErrors with a new CHANNEL_RAW_MODE bit for special
+ behavior when called from Raw channel APIs.
+
+2000-07-13 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c (StackSetBlockMode): moved set of chanPtr
+ outside of blockModeProc check to avoid infinite loop when
+ blockModeProc was NULL (Kupries). updated TransformSeekProc to
+ not call Tcl_Seek directly (Kupries).
+
+ * win/tclWinChan.c: updated fileChannelType to v2 channel struct
+ * win/tclWinConsole.c: updated consoleChannelType to v2 channel struct
+ * win/tclWinPipe.c: updated pipeChannelType to v2 channel struct
+ * win/tclWinSerial.c: updated serialChannelType to v2 channel struct
+ * win/tclWinSock.c: updated tcpChannelType to v2 channel struct
+
+2000-07-11 Brent Welch <welch@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * win/tclConfig.sh.in (TCL_LIBS): Cleaned up unix-specific
+ autoconf variables.
+
+2000-07-11 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * tests/iogt.test: made tests [345].0 not run by default as they
+ were failing in the new design, but I'm not convinced that the
+ returned result isn't correct.
+
+ * generic/tclDecls.h:
+ * generic/tclStubInit.c:
+ * generic/tcl.decls: added Tcl_GetTopChannel C API that returns
+ the current top channel of a channel stack. Tcl_GetChannel was
+ changed earlier to return the bottommost channel of a stack
+ because that is the one that is guaranteed to stay around the
+ longest, and this was needed to compensate for certain
+ operations that want to look at the state of the main channel.
+ Most channel APIs already compensate for grabbing the top, so it
+ shouldn't be needed often.
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_StackChannel, Tcl_UnstackChannel): Added
+ flushing of buffers (Kupries), removed use of DownChannel macro,
+ added Tcl_GetTopChannel public API to get to the top channel of
+ the channel stack (necessary for TLS). Rewrote Tcl_NotifyChannel
+ for new channel design (Kupries). Did some code cleanup in the
+ transform code. tclIO.c must still be broken into bits (separate
+ out test code and giot code, create tclIO.h).
+
+2000-07-10 Andreas Kupries <a.kupries@westend.com>
+
+ * tests/iogt.test: Reverted some earlier changes as a fix by Jeff
+ revived the original and correct behaviour. IOW, the tests showed
+ a genuine error and I didn't see it :(.
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_Read|Write_Raw): Changed to directly use
+ the drivers and not DoRead|DoWrite. The latter use the buffering
+ system, encoding and eol-translation and this wreaks havoc with
+ the data going through the transformations. Both procedures use
+ CheckForchannelErrors and let it believe that there is no
+ background copy in progress or else stacked channels could not
+ be used for that.
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c (TclCopyChannel, CopyData): Moved access to the
+ topmost channel from the first to the second procedure to make
+ the decision about that at the last possible time (Callbacks can
+ change the stacking).
+
+ test suite: failures of iogt-[345].0
+
+2000-07-06 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * tests/iogt.test: new tests for stacked channel stuff based off
+ new 'testchannel transform|unstack' code (Kupries IOGT extension).
+ * generic/tcl.decls:
+ * generic/tcl.h:
+ * generic/tclDecls.h:
+ * generic/tclStubsInit.c:
+ * generic/tclIO.c: complete rewrite of Tcl Channel code for
+ stacked channels. Channels are now designed to work in a more
+ stacked fashion with a shared ChannelState data structure.
+
+2000-06-02 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c (CloseChannel): removed the &ing out of
+ (TCL_READABLE|TCL_WRITABLE) from the flags, as CloseChannel does
+ this on the next pass through for the top channel, and it appeared
+ to be causing hangs by not allowing the final flush.
+
+2000-06-01 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c (CloseChannel): Rewrote CloseChannel code to
+ unstack a channel during the close process. Fixed a refcount bug
+ in Tcl_UnstackChannel. [Bug: 5623]
+ (CloseChannel): further extended CloseChannel in the stacked case
+ to effect certain operations on the next channel that would have
+ been done in Tcl_Close. Also added CHANNEL_CLOSED and removed
+ (TCL_READABLE|TCL_WRITABLE) bits from chanPtr->flags. Changed
+ final reset of the WatchProc to check the chanDownPtr's (next)
+ interestMask.

+2000-09-20 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * tests/socket.test: removed doTestsWithRemoteServer constraint
+ from socket-12.*. It requires 'exec', not a remote server.
+ Cleaned up some coding errors.
+
+2000-09-20 Jennifer Hom <jenn@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * library/tcltest1.0/pkgIndex.tcl: Updated to load tcltest 2.0.
+ * library/tcltest1.0/tcltest2.tcl: New version of tcltest.
+ Cleanup of command line parsing: allows users to specify command
+ line arguments through an environment variable named
+ TCLTEST_OPTIONS [RFE: 3748], does not respond to incorrect
+ arguments, and forces usage of entire flag name when using command
+ line arguments. Defines accessor procs for all tcltest
+ variables. Allows users to use 'return' in test scripts. Allow
+ users to specify whether test files should be sourced or run in a
+ separate process. 'all.tcl' code moved to tcltest package.
+ 'test' proc modified to use attribute-value pairs. Allow users to
+ specify what return codes, output, and errors can be compared and
+ whether these values should be compared using regexp, glob, or
+ exact matching. makeDirectory & removeDirectory now operate with
+ respect to temporaryDirectory [Bug: 6001]. Test results from
+ tests run in slave interpreters are now included in test totals
+ [Bug: 1493]. Test files that return error values are now reported.
+
+ * tests/all.tcl: Added code to check for the tcltest version
+ loaded; modified to figure out which tests to run based on the
+ tcltest version loaded.
+ * tests/tcltest.test: Modified to explicitly load version 1.0 of
+ tcltest.
+ * tests/tcltest2.test: New test suite for tcltest; includes all of
+ the old tests plus new ones reflecting changes made for version
+ 2.0.
+ * tests/cmdAH.test: Added singleTestInterp constraint to
+ cmdAH-31.2; this test does not run if tests aren't sourced into a
+ single interpreter.
+ * tests/socket.test: Fixed two tests that were referencing
+ variables outside of scope.
+
+ * tools/tcl.wse.in: Added code to install tcltest2.tcl.
+
+ * doc/tcltest2.n: New documentation for tcltest version 2.0.
+ Removes documentation for tcltest namespace variables. Adds
+ documentation for new tcltest procs.
+
+ * unix/mkLinks: Added code to link to tcltest2.n.
+
+ * generic/tcl.h: Added comment to modify tcltest2.tcl as well as
+ tcltest.tcl for version changes.
+
+2000-09-19 Eric Melski <ericm@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_RegexpObjCmd): When using -all, all
+ attempts after the first to match the regexp against the string
+ should include the TCL_REG_NOTBOL flag, to avoid erroneously
+ matching ^ in the middle of the string. Added code to set this
+ flag after the first pass through the matching loop. [Bug: 6284].
+
+2000-09-19 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * doc/Eval.3: Added a note about the script argument to Tcl_Eval()
+ should be in UTF-8 or risk implied conversion errors when possible
+ combinations of upper ascii can be valid UTF-8 special codes.
+
+2000-09-17 Eric Melski <ericm@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * tests/cmdIL.test: Added a test for fix for [Bug: 6212].
+
+ * generic/tclCmdIL.c (Tcl_LsortObjCmd): Applied patch from [Bug:
+ 6212], which corrected an error in the handling of the -index option.
+
+2000-09-14 Eric Melski <ericm@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * doc/Alloc.3: Added entries for Tcl_AttemptAlloc, Tcl_AttempRealloc.
+
+ * doc/StringObj.3: Added entry for Tcl_AttemptSetObjLength.
+
+ * generic/tclDecls.h:
+ * generic/tclStubInit.c: Regen'ed stubs files from new tcl.decls.
+
+ * generic/tcl.decls: Added stubs for the Tcl_Attempt* memory
+ allocators and for Tcl_AttemptSetObjLength.
+
+ * generic/tcl.h: Added #define's for attemptckalloc,
+ attemptckrealloc, which map to the Tcl_Attempt* memory allocators.
+
+ * generic/tclCkalloc.c: Added non-panic'ing versions of Tcl_Alloc,
+ Tcl_Realloc, etc.; these are called Tcl_AttemptAlloc,
+ Tcl_AttemptRealloc, etc. These are used by
+ Tcl_AttemptSetObjLength and the string obj append functions.
+
+ * generic/tclStringObj.c: Modified string growth algorithm to use
+ doubling algorithm as long as possible, and only fall back when
+ that fails. Added Tcl_AttemptSetObjLength, and modified
+ AppendUnicodeToUnicodeRep, AppendUtfToUtfRep, and
+ Tcl_AppendStringsToObjVA to support this.
+
+2000-09-07 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * win/.cvsignore: changed the glob patterns a bit to exclude VC++
+ project conversion backups.
+
+ * win/tclWinPipe.c: Stage-1 bug fix for TR#2460 "exec leaks memory".
+ Added more logic around the close-down of the pipe reader thread so
+ as to avoid, at all cost, a TerminateThread. Most cases with exec
+ are fixed, but I don't consider 2460 done yet. Closing down the
+ read side of a pipe before the child process, doesn't really fit
+ the windows model. [BUG: 2460]
+
+2000-09-07 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * doc/trace.n: minor doc cleanup
+
+2000-09-06 André Pönitz <poenitz@htwm.de>

+ * doc/*.n: added or changed "SEE ALSO:" section
+
+2000-09-06 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * win/tclWinLoad.c (TclpLoadFile): added special message for
+ ERROR_PROC_NOT_FOUND exception in loading a dll.
+ * win/tclWinError.c: changed ERROR_PROC_NOT_FOUND to map from
+ ESRCH (POSIX: no such process) to EINVAL because there is no good
+ mapping for "procedure not found".
+
+ * README:
+ * generic/tcl.h:

+
+ * unix/tclUnixPipe.c (TclpCreateProcess): Removed WNOHANG from
+ Tcl_WaitPid call in error case of process creation on Unix, as it
+ would lead to defunct processes. [Bug: 6148]
+
+ * tests/string.test: extended string repeat tests
+ * generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_StringObjCmd): changed STR_REPEAT to
+ preallocate the full space of the final string, avoided repeated
+ appends.
+
+ * doc/source.n:
+ * doc/Eval.3: added extra note about how to safe use ^Z in code,
+ as it is now a cross-platform (was just Windows) EOF char.
+
+2000-09-05 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * generic/tclHash.c: fixed pedantic warning of incorrectly placed
+ #endif
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): INST_STR_INDEX fixed
+ pedantic cast warning.
+ Corrected support for building with -DTCL_COMPILE_STATS.
+ Added efficiency check of object equality.
+
+2000-08-29 Eric Melski <ericm@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * generic/tclStringObj.c: Applied patch from Gerhard Hintermayer
+ to provide a more conservative string growth algorithm for strings
+ larger than one megabyte; this allows more efficient use of memory
+ for very large strings.
+
+2000-08-25 Eric Melski <ericm@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * tests/trace.test: Extended array tracing tests.
+
+ * doc/trace.n: Clarified information about when array traces will
+ be fired.
+
+ * generic/tclVar.c (Tcl_ArrayObjCmd): Corrected call to CallTraces
+ (for TCL_TRACE_ARRAY) to only be called when the variable is
+ either an array or is undefined, to ensure that array traces do
+ not fire for scalar variables.
+
+2000-08-24 Eric Melski <ericm@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * doc/man.macros: Tweaked tab settings for .SO (Standard Options)
+ sections, based on suggestion from Peter Spjuth.
+
+2000-08-24 Mo DeJong <mdejong@redhat.com>
+
+ * unix/README: Update to account for removal of --enable-gcc.
+ * unix/configure.in:
+ * unix/tcl.m4 (SC_ENABLE_GCC): Remove --enable-gcc option.
+ * win/README: Add note about building with Cygwin.
+ * win/configure.in:
+ * win/tcl.m4 (SC_ENABLE_GCC): Remove --enable-gcc option.
+ Remove quick hack that provided cross compile support for
+ windows builds.
+
+2000-08-24 Eric Melski <ericm@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ Overall change: Added support for command rename/delete traces
+ and new trace syntax, from patch from Vince Darley. Added support
+ for array traces for variables. [RFE: 5048, 5967].
+
+ * doc/trace.n: Updated documentation for new syntax; flagged old
+ syntax as deprecated; added documentation for command
+ rename/delete traces and variable array traces.
+
+ * tests/trace.test: Updated tests for new trace syntax; new tests
+ for command rename/delete traces; new tests for array traces.
+
+ * generic/tclVar.c: Support for new trace syntax; support for
+ TCL_TRACE_ARRAY.
+
+ * generic/tclStubInit.c:
+ * generic/tclDecls.h:
+ * generic/tcl.decls: Stub functions for command rename/delete traces.
+
+ * generic/tcl.h:
+ * generic/tclInt.h:
+ * generic/tclBasic.c: Support for command traces.
+
+ * generic/tclCmdMZ.c (TclTraceVariableObjCmd): Patched to support
+ new [trace] syntax:
+ trace {add|remove|list} {variable|command} name ops command
+ Added support for command traces (rename, delete operations).
+ Added support for TCL_TRACE_ARRAY at Tcl level (array operation
+ for variable traces).
+
+2000-08-20 Eric Melski <ericm@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * generic/tclVar.c: Added check for non-arrays for [array statistics]
+ command (patch from Mark Patton).
+
+2000-08-19 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * generic/tclPlatDecls.h: without a previous '#include <windows.h>',
+ tclPlatDecls.h can't be parsed due to a missing definition of TCHAR.
+ Added a check to include it when not defined.
+
+ ***POSSIBLE OBSCURE BUG*** could be caused when the compile flags
+ for the core happen to be different than a project who uses these
+ publics regarding -D_MBCS and -D_UNICODE. This added check might
+ have to be revisited later with a better understanding of the
+ reprocusions. I think TCHAR should be replaced with it's expansion.
+
+2000-08-18 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * win/.cvsignore (added): provides a cleaner build environment with
+ graphical CVS clients.
+
+2000-08-15 Eric Melski <ericm@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * library/tcltest1.0/tcltest.tcl: Set debug level in

+ in tcltest::saveState [Bug: 4505].
+
+2000-08-14 Eric Melski <ericm@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * win/makefile.vc:
+ * win/Makefile.in:
+ * unix/Makefile.in: Added tclPlatDecls.h to the list of installed
+ headers, for more complete stubs support. [Bug: 5241].
+
+ * generic/tcl.h: Added #include "tclPlatDecls.h" to get
+ platform-specific stubs declarations (Tcl_WinTCharToUtf, etc)
+ [Bug: 5241].
+
+ * README: Updated link for instructions on compiling Tcl from
+ sources to point to correct location
+ (http://dev.scriptics.com/doc/... instead of
+ http://dev.scriptics.com/support/...).
+
+2000-08-11 Eric Melski <ericm@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * generic/tclEnv.c (TclUnsetEnv): Changed declaration of length

+2000-08-10 Eric Melski <ericm@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * library/msgcat1.0/pkgIndex.tcl: Bumped version number to 1.2
+ [Bug: 6100].
+

+
+2000-08-10 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * generic/tclObj.c: r1.15 accidentally changed a global mutex

+
+2000-08-07 Eric Melski <ericm@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * tests/indexObj.test: Added tests using the [testwrongnumargs]

+ for the Tcl_WrongNumArgs function.
+
+ * generic/tclIndexObj.c (Tcl_WrongNumArgs): Corrected algorithm to

+ [Bug: 6078].
+
+2000-07-27 Mo DeJong <mdejong@redhat.com>
+
+ * win/configure.in: TCL_STUB_LIB_FLAG should not

+ before. Removed older Win hacks that would end-up waking the
+ wrong notifier in the presence of a threaded build. All tests
+ pass as before. New test cases will be added soon for the new
+ behavior. [BUG: 5791]
+
+2000-07-25 Eric Melski <ericm@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * generic/tclVar.c (CallTraces): Added check for VAR_TRACE_ACTIVE
+ on the array containing the variable before executing traces on
+ that array, to conform with normal variable traces and the
+ documentation, which states that while executing a trace, other
+ traces on that variable are disabled. [Bug: 6049].
+
+ * win/tclWinPipe.c (BuildCommandLine): Added Tcl_DStringFree call

+
+ * library/msgcat1.0/msgcat.tcl:

+
+ * tests/http.test
+ * doc/http.n
+ * library/http2.3/http.tcl: Fixed bug 5741, where unsuccessful
+ geturl calls sometimes leaked memory and resources (sockets).
+ Also, switched around some of the logic so that http::wait never
+ throws an exception. This is because in an asynchronous geturl,
+ the command callback will probably end up doing all the error
+ handling anyway, and in an asynchronous situation, the user
+ expects to check the state when the transaction completes, as
+ opposed to being thrown an exception. For the http package, this
+ menas the user can check http::status for "error" and http::error
+ for the error message after doing the http::wait.

+
+ * Overall changes:
+ (1) Implementation of joinable threads for all platforms.
+ (2) Additional API's for channels. Required to allow the
+ thread extension to move channels between threads.
+
+ * generic/tcl.decls (lines 1360f): Added Tcl_JoinThread,
+ Tcl_IsChannelShared, Tcl_IsChannelRegistered, Tcl_CutChannel,
+ Tcl_SpliceChannel, Tcl_IsChannelExisting and
+ Tcl_ClearChannelHandlers (slots 394 to 400).
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c: Implemented Tcl_IsChannelRegistered,
+ Tcl_IsChannelShared, Tcl_CutChannel, Tcl_SpliceChannel,
+ Tcl_IsChannelExisting and Tcl_ClearChannelHandlers.
+ Tcl_CutChannel uses code from CloseChannel. Replaced this code
+ by a call to Tcl_CutChannel. Replaced several code fragments
+ adding channels to the channel list with calls to
+ Tcl_SpliceChannel. Removed now unused variables from
+ CloseChannel and Tcl_UnstackChannel. Tcl_ClearChannelHandlers
+ uses code from Tcl_Close. Replaced this code by a call to
+ Tcl_ClearChannelHandlers. Removed now unused variables from
+ Tcl_Close. Added the subcommands 'cut', 'forgetch', 'splice' and
+ 'isshared' to the test code
+ (TclTestChannelCmd).
+
+ * unix/tclUnixThread.c: Implemented Tcl_JoinThread using the
+ pthread-functionality.
+
+ * win/tclWinThrd.c: Fixed several small typos in comments.
+ Implemented Tcl_JoinThread using a platform independent
+ emulation layer (see generic/tclThreadJoin.c below). Added
+ 'joinLock' to serialize Tcl_CreateThread and TclpExitThread to
+ prevent a race for joinable threads.
+
+ * mac/tclMacThrd.c: Implemented Tcl_JoinThread using a platform
+ independent emulation layer (see generic/tclThreadJoin.c
+ below). Due to the cooperative nature of threading on this
+ platform the race mentioned above is not present.
+
+ * generic/tclThreadJoin.c: New file. Contains a platform
+ independent emulation layer helping in the implementation of
+ joinable threads for the win and mac platforms.
+
+ * generic/tclInt.h: Added declarations for TclJoinThread,
+ TclRememberJoinableThread and TclSignalExitThread. These
+ procedures define the API of the emulation layer for joinable
+ threads (see generic/tclThreadJoin.c above).
+
+ * win/Makefile.in:
+ * win/makefile.vc: Added generic/tclTheadJoin.o to the rules.
+
+ * mac/: I don't know to which file generic/tclTheadJoin.o has to
+ be added to so that it compiles. Sorry.
+
+ * unix/tclUnixChan.c: #ifdef'd the thread-local list of file
+ channels as it prevents us from transfering channels. To restore
+ this we may need an extended interface to drivers in the
+ future. Target: 9.0. Found while testing the new transfer of
+ channels. The information in this list for a channel was left
+ behind and then crashed the system during finalization.
+
+ * generic/tclThreadTest.c: Added -joinable flag to 'testthread
+ create'. Added subcommand 'testthread join'.
+
+ * doc/CrtChannel.3: Added documentation for Tcl_IsChannelRegistered,

+ These changes make some error handling marginally better for Mac

+
+ * mac/tclMacSock.c (TcpClose): Add timeouts to the close - these
+ don't seem to be honored, however.
+ Use a separate PB for the release, since an async connect socket
+ will still be using the original buffer.
+ Make sure TCPRelease returns noErr before freeing the recvBuff.

+ * mac/tclMacSock.c (CreateSocket): Add timeouts to the async
+ create. These don't seem to trigger, however. Sigh...
+ * mac/tclMacSock.c (WaitForSocketEvent): If an TCP_ASYNC_CONNECT

+ * library/http2.1/http.tcl: Fixed a newly introduced bug where if
+ there's a -command callback and something goes wrong, geturl threw
+ an exception, called the callback, and unset the token. I changed
+ it so that it will not call the callback when throwing an
+ exception (so the caller only finds out about a given error from
+ one place). Also, fixed http::ncode so that it actually gives you
+ back the http return code (i.e. 200, 404, etc.) instead of the
+ first digit of the version of HTTP being used (i.e. 1).

+
+ * doc/regexp.n: doc clarification [Bug: 5037]
+ * doc/update.n: typo fix [Bug: 4996]
+
+ * unix/tcl.m4 (SC_ENABLE_THREADS): enhanced the detection of

+
+2000-04-12 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * doc/dde.n: corrected dde poke docs. [Bug: 4991]
+
+2000-04-11 Eric Melski <ericm@scriptics.com>
+
+ * win/tclWinPipe.c: Added "CONST" keyword to declaration of char

+
+2000-04-10 Brent Welch <welch@scriptics.com>
+
+ * generic/tcl.h: Fixed Tcl_CreateThread declaration.
+ * library/tcltest1.0/tcltest.tcl: Fixed the "mainThread"

+
+2000-04-10 Eric Melski <ericm@scriptics.com>
+
+ * win/tclWinPipe.c (TclpCreateTempFile): Added conversion of
+ contents string from UTF to native encoding [Bug: 4030].
+
+ * tests/regexp.test: Added tests for infinite looping in [regexp
+ -all].
+
+ * generic/tclCmdMZ.c: Fixed infinite loop bug with [regexp -all]
+ [Bug: 4981].
+
+ * tests/*.test: Changed all occurances of "namespace import

+
+2000-04-09 Brent Welch <welch@scriptics.com>
+
+ * lib/httpd2.1/http.tcl: Worked on the "server closes before
+ reading post data" case, which unfortunately causes different
+ error cases on Solaris, which can read the reply, and Linux
+ and Windows, which cannot read anything. This is all in the
+ loop-back case - client and server on the same host. Also
+ unified the error handling so the "ioerror" status goes away
+ and errors are reflected in a more uniform way. Updated the
+ man page to document the behavior.
+
+2000-04-09 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * tests/reg.test (matchexpected): corrected tests to use tcltest
+ constraint types to skip certain tests.
+
+ * generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_SetCommandInfo): comment fix
+
+ * unix/tclUnixThrd.c (Tcl_CreateThread): moved TCL_THREADS ifdef
+ inside of func as it is declared for non-threads builds as well.
+ In the non-threads case, it always returns TCL_ERROR (couldn't
+ create thread).
+
+2000-04-08 Andreas Kupries <a.kupries@westend.com>
+
+ * Overall change: Definition of a public API for the creation of
+ new threads.
+
+ * generic/tclInt.h (line 1802f): Removed the definition of
+ 'TclpThreadCreate'. (line 793f) Removed the definition of
+ 'Tcl_ThreadCreateProc'.
+
+ * generic/tcl.h (line 388f): Readded the definition of
+ 'Tcl_ThreadCreateProc'. Added Win32 stuff send in by David
+ Graveraux <davygrvy@bigfoot.com> to that too (__stdcall,
+ ...). Added macros for the default stacksize and allowed flags.
+
+ * generic/tcl.decls (line 1356f): Added definition of
+ 'Tcl_CreateThread', slot 393 of the stub table. Two new
+ arguments in the public API, for stacksize and flags.
+
+ * win/tclWinThrd.c:
+ * mac/tclMacThrd.c: Renamed TclpThreadCreate to Tcl_CreateThread,
+ added handling of the stacksize. Flags are currently ignored.
+
+ * unix/tclUnixThrd.c: See above, but handles joinable
+ flag. Ignores the specified stacksize if the macro
+ HAVE_PTHREAD_ATTR_SETSTACKSIZE is not defined.
+
+ * generic/tclThreadTest.c (line 363): See below.
+
+ * unix/tclUnixNotfy.c (line 210): Adapted to the changes
+ above. Uses default stacksize and no flags now.
+
+ * unic/tcl.m4 (line 382f): Added a check for
+ 'pthread_attr_setstacksize' to detect platforms not implementing
+ this feature of pthreads. If it is implemented, configure will
+ define the macro HAVE_PTHREAD_ATTR_SETSTACKSIZE (See
+ unix/tclUnixThrd.c too).
+
+ * doc/Thread.3: Added Tcl_CreateThread and its arguments to the
+ list of described functions. Removed stuff about not providing a
+ public C-API for thread-creation.
+
+2000-04-07 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * doc/binary.n: clarified docs on sign extension in binary scan
+ [Bug: 3466]
+
+ * library/tcltest1.0/tcltest.tcl (initConstraints): removed win32s
+ references (no longer supported)
+
+ * tests/fCmd.test: marked test 8.1 knownBug because it is
+ dangerous on poorly configured systems [Bug: 3881]
+ and added 8.2 to keep essence of 8.1 tested.
+
+2000-04-05 Andreas Kupries <a.kupries@westend.com>
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_UnstackChannel, line 1831): Forcing
+ interest mask to the correct value after an unstack and
+ re-initialization of the notifier via the watchProc. Without this
+ the first fileevent after an unstack will come through and be
+ processed, but no more. [Bug: ??].
+
+2000-03-04 Brent Welch <welch@scriptics.com>
+
+ * {win,unix}/Makefile.in: added dependency of tclStubInit.c on
+ tcl.decls and tclInt.decls
+ * generic/tclThread.c: Tweak so this compiles w/out TCL_THREADS
+ * generic/{tcl.decls,tclStubInit.c}: Just touched the tcl.decls and
+ regenerated the tclStubInit.c file
+
+2000-03-29 Sandeep Tamhankar <sandeep@scriptics.com>
+
+ * library/http2.1/http.tcl: For the -querychannel option,
+ fconfigure the socket to be binary so that we don't translate
+ anything while reading the data. This is because we determine the
+ content length of the data on the channel by using seek (to the end
+ of the file) and tell on the file handle, and we need the
+ content-length to match the amount of data actually sent, and
+ translation can affect the number of bytes posted.
+
+2000-04-03 Andreas Kupries <a.kupries@westend.com>
+
+ * Overall change: Definition of public API's for the finalization
+ of conditions and mutexes. [Bug: 4199].
+
+ * generic/tclInt.h: Removed definitions of TclFinalizeMutex and
+ TclFinalizeCondition.
+
+ * generic/tcl.decls: Added declarations of Tcl_MutexFinalize and
+ Tcl_ConditionFinalize.
+
+ * generic/tclThread.c: Renamed TclFinalizeMutex to
+ Tcl_MutexFinalize. Renamed TclFinalizeCondition to
+ Tcl_ConditionFinalize.
+
+ * generic/tclNotify.c: Changed usage of TclFinalizeMutex to
+ Tcl_MutexFinalize.
+
+ * unix/tclUnixNotfy.c:
+ * generic/tclThreadTest.c: Changed usages of TclFinalizeCondition to
+ Tcl_ConditionFinalize.
+
+ * generic/tcl.h: Added empty macros for Tcl_MutexFinalize and
+ Tcl_ConditionFinalize, to be used when the core is compiled
+ without threads.
+
+ * doc/Thread.3: Added description the new API's.
+
+2000-04-03 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>

+
+ * tests/foreach.test:

+
+ * tools/man2help2.tcl: fixed winhelp cross-linking error [Bug: 4156]
+ improved translation to winhelp [Bug: 3679]
+
+ * unix/Makefile.in (MAN_INSTALL_DIR): patch to accept --mandir
+ correctly [Bug: 4085]
+
+ * unix/dltest/pkg[a-e].c: Cleaned up test packages [Bug: 2293]
+
+2000-04-03 Eric Melski <ericm@scriptics.com>
+
+ * unix/tclUnixFCmd.c (SetGroupAttribute):
+ * unix/tclUnixFCmd.c (SetOwnerAttribute): Added (uid_t) and (gid_t)
+ casts to avoid compiler warnings.
+
+2000-03-31 Eric Melski <ericm@scriptics.com>
+
+ * generic/tclGet.c (Tcl_GetDouble): Added additional conditions to
+ error test (previously only errno was checked, but the return
+ value of strtod() should be checked as well). [Bug: 4118].
+
+ * tests/exec.test: Added test for proper conversion of UTF data
+ when used with "<< $dataWithUTF" on exec's.
+
+ * unix/tclUnixPipe.c (TclpCreateTempFile): Added
+ Tcl_UtfToExternalDString call, so that if there is UTF content in
+ the string it will be properly converted to the system encoding
+ before being written [Bug: 4030].
+ (TclpCreateTempFile): Added a check on the return value of tmpnam;
+ some systems (Linux, for example) will start to return NULL after
+ tmpnam has been called TMP_MAX times; not checking for this can
+ have bad results (overwriting temp files, core dumps, etc.)
+
+2000-03-30 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_DeleteCommandFromToken): Added comments
+ noting the need to pair ckalloc with ckfree. [Bug: 4262]
+
+ * generic/tclInt.decls:
+ * generic/tclIntPlatDecls.h:
+ * generic/tclStubInit.c:
+ * win/tclWin32Dll.c: removed TclWinSynchSpawn (vestige of Win32s
+ support).
+
+ * win/tclWinReg.c: made use of TclWinGetPlatformId instead of
+ getting info again
+
+ * win/tclWinPort.h:
+ * win/Makefile.in:
+ * win/configure.in:
+ * win/tcl.m4: Added support for gcc/mingw on Windows [Bug: 4234]
+
+2000-03-29 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * generic/tclCompile.c (TclCleanupByteCode): made ByteCode cleanup
+ more aware of TCL_BYTECODE_PRECOMPILED flagged structs (gen'd by
+ tbcload), to correctly clean them up.
+
+ * generic/tclClock.c (FormatClock): moved check for empty format
+ earlier, commented 0 result return value
+
+2000-03-29 Sandeep Tamhankar <sandeep@scriptics.com>
+
+ * library/http2.1/http.tcl: Removed an unnecessary fileevent
+ statement from the error processing part of the Write method.
+ Also, fixed two potential memory leaks in wait and reset, in which
+ the state array wasn't being unset before throwing an exception.
+ Prior to this version, Brent checked in a fix to catch a
+ fileevent statement that was sometimes causing a stack trace when
+ geturl was called with -timeout. I believe Brent's fix is
+ necessary because TLS closes bad sockets for secure connections,
+ and the fileevent was trying to act on a socket that no longer
+ existed.
+
+2000-03-27 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * tests/httpd: removed unnecessary 'puts stderr "Post Dispatch"'
+
+ * tests/namespace.test:
+ * generic/tclNamesp.c (Tcl_Export): added a uniq'ing test to the
+ export list so only one instance of each export pattern would
+ exist in the list.
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): optimized case for
+ the empty string in ==/!= comparisons
+
+2000-03-27 Eric Melski <ericm@scriptics.com>
+
+ * unix/tclUnixChan.c: Added (off_t) type casts in lseek() call
+ [Bug: 4409].
+
+ * unix/tclLoadAout.c:
+ * unix/tclUnixPipe.c: Added (off_t) type casts in lseek() calls
+ [Bug: 4410].
+
+2000-03-22 Sandeep Tamhankar <sandeep@scriptics.com>
+
+ * library/http2.1/http.tcl: Fixed a bug where string query data
+ that was bigger than queryblocksize would get duplicate characters
+ at block boundaries.
+
+2000-03-22 Sandeep Tamhankar <sandeep@scriptics.com>
+
+ * library/http2.1/http.tcl: Fixed bug 4463, where we were getting
+ a stack trace if we tried to publish a project to a good host but
+ a port where there was no server listening. It turned out the
+ problem was a stray fileevent that needed to be cleared. Also,
+ fixed a bug where http::code could stack trace if called on a bad
+ token (one which didn't represent a successful geturl) by adding
+ an http element to the state array in geturl.
+
+2000-03-21 Eric Melski <ericm@scriptics.com>
+
+ * tests/clock.test: Modified some tests that were not robust with
+ respect to the time zone in which they were run and were thus
+ failing.
+
+ * doc/clock.n: Clarified meaning of -gmt with respect to -base
+ when used with [clock scan] (-gmt does not affect the
+ interpretation of -base).
+
+2000-03-19 Sandeep Tamhankar <sandeep@scriptics.com>
+
+ * library/http2.1/http.tcl: geturl used to throw an exception when
+ the connection failed; I accidentally returned a token with the
+ error info, breaking backwards compatibility. I changed it back
+ to throwing an exception, but unsetting the state array first
+ (thus still eliminating the original memory leak problem).
+
+2000-03-19 Sandeep Tamhankar <sandeep@scriptics.com>
+
+ * library/http2.1/http.tcl: Added -querychannel option and altered
+ some of Brent's modifications to allow asynchronous posts (via
+ -command). Also modified -queryprogress so that it calls the
+ query callback as <callback> <token> <total size> <current size>
+ to be consistent with -progress. Added -queryblocksize option
+ with default 8192 bytes for post blocksize. Fixed a bunch of
+ potential memory leaks for the case when geturl receives bad args
+ or can't open a socket, etc. Overall, the package really rocks
+ now.
+
+ * doc/http.n: Added -queryblocksize, -querychannel, and
+ -queryprogress. Also, changed the description of -blocksize,
+ which states that the -progress callback will be called for each
+ block, to now qualify that with an "if -progress is specified".
+
+ * tests/http.test: Added a querychannel test for synchronous and
+ asynchronous posts, altered the queryprogress test such that the
+ callback conforms to the -progress format. Also, had to use the
+ -queryblocksize option to do the post 16K at a time to match
+ Brent's expected results (and to test that -queryblocksize works).
+
+2000-03-15 Brent Welch <welch@scriptics.com>
+
+ * library/http2.1/http.tcl: Added -queryprogress callback to
+ http::geturl and also changed it so that writing the post data
+ is event driven if the queryprogress callback or a timeout is given.
+ This allows a timeout to occur when writing lots of post data.
+ The queryprogress callback is called after each block of query
+ data is posted. It has the same signature as the -progress callback.
+
+2000-03-06 Eric Melski <ericm@scriptics.com>
+
+ * library/package.tcl: Applied patch from Bug: 2570; rather than
+ setting geometry of slave interp to 0x0 when Tk was loaded, it now
+ does "wm withdraw .". Both remove the main window from the
+ display, but the former caused some internal structures to get
+ initialized to zero, which caused crashes with some extensions.
+
+2000-03-02 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * library/package.tcl (tclPkgUnknown): extended to allow
+ recognizes changes in the auto_path while sourcing in other
+ pkgIndex.tcl files
+
+ * doc/FindExec.3: fixed doc for declaration of Tcl_FindExecutable
+ [Bug: 4275]
+
+ * generic/tclFileName.c (Tcl_TranslateFileName): Applied patch
+ from Newman to significantly speedup file split/join on Windows
+ (replaces regexp with custom parser). [Bug: 2867]
+
+ * win/README.binary: change mailing lists from @consortium.org
+ to @scriptics.com [Bug: 4173]
+
+2000-02-28 Eric Melski <ericm@scriptics.com>
+
+ * tests/clock.test: Added test for ISO bases < 100000
+
+ * generic/tclDate.c: (generated on Solaris)
+ * generic/tclGetDate.y: Changed condition for deciding if a number
+ is an ISO 8601 base from number >= 100000 to numberOfDigits >= 6.
+ Previously it would fail to recognize 000000 as an ISO base.
+
+2000-02-14 Eric Melski <ericm@scriptics.com>
+
+ * unix/Makefile.in: Added rpm target to generate Tcl binary RPM.
+
+ * unix/tcl.spec: RPM specification file for a Tcl binary RPM for
+ Linux.
+
+2000-02-10 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>

+ * tests/unixInit.test: fixed japanese LANG encoding test [Bug: 3549]
+
+ * unix/configure.in:

+ failures, could perhaps be even more intelligent.
+
+2000-02-09 Jim Ingham <jingham@cygnus.com>
+
+ * mac/tclMacSock.c: Don't panic when you get an error closing an async
+ socket. This doesn't seem to hurt anything, and we return the error so
+ the caller can do the right thing.
+
+ New Files:
+ * mac/MW_TclHeader.h:
+ * mac/MW_TclTestHeader.h:
+ * mac/MW_TclTestHeader.pch:

+
+ * tests/clock.test: Added tests for "next monthname" constructs.

+
+2000-01-31 Eric Melski <ericm@scriptics.com>
+

+
+ * tests/pkg/magicchar2.tcl:
+ * tests/autoMkindex.test: Test for auto loader fix (bug #2480).
+
+ * library/init.tcl: auto_load was using [info commands $name] to
+ determine if a given command was available; if the command name
+ had * or [] it, this would fail because info commands uses
+ glob-style matching. This is fixed. (Bug #2480).
+
+ * tests/pkg/spacename.tcl:
+ * tests/pkgMkIndex.test: Tests for fix for bug #2360.
+

+
+ * tests/pkg/magicchar.tcl:
+ * tests/autoMkindex.test: Test for fix for bug #2611.
+
+ * library/auto.tcl: Fixed the regular expression that performs $

+ adding \ escapes even to $'s that were already escaped,
+ effectively "un-escaping" those $'s. (bug #2611).
+
+2000-01-27 Eric Melski <ericm@scriptics.com>
+
+ * tests/autoMkindex.test:
+ * library/auto.tcl: Applied patch (with slight modification) from
+ bug #2701: auto_mkIndex uses platform dependent file paths.
+ Added test for fix.
+
+2000-01-27 Jennifer Hom <jenn@scriptics.com>
+
+ * library/tcltest1.0/tcltest.tcl: Changed NormalizePath to
+ normalizePath and exported it as a public proc. This proc
+ creates an absolute path given the name of the variable containing
+ the path to modify. The path is modified in place.
+ * library/tcltest1.0/pkgIndex.tcl: Added normalizePath.
+ * tests/all.tcl: Changed code to use normalizePath.

+2000-01-27 Eric Melski <ericm@scriptics.com>
+
+ * tests/pkg/samename.tcl: test file for bug #1983
+
+ * tests/pkgMkIndex.test:
+ * doc/pkgMkIndex.n:
+ * library/package.tcl: Per rfe #4097, optimized creation of direct

+ a -lazy option.
+ Fixed bug #1983, dealing with pkg_mkIndex incorrectly handling

+
+2000-01-26 Eric Melski <ericm@scriptics.com>

+
+2000-01-25 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * unix/tcl.m4: modified EXTRA_CFLAGS to add -DHAVE_TZSET for

+
+ * unix/tclUnixPort.h: moved include of <utime.h> lower since some
+ systems (UTS) require sys/types.h to be included first [Bug: 4031]
+
+ * unix/tclUnixChan.c (CreateSocketAddress): changed comparison
+ with -1 to 0xFFFFFFFF, to ensure 32 bit comparison even on 64 bit
+ systems. [Bug: 3878]

+
+ * generic/tclInt.h:

+
+ * doc/lreplace.n: Corrected man page with respect to treatment of
+ empty lists, and "prettied up" the page. (bug #1705).

+ NamespaceWhichCmd (bug #956).
+
+ * tests/var.test: Added tests for corrected variable behavior

+ return an error, regardless of existance of that element in the
+ array (now behavior is consistant with docs too) (bug #981).
+
+2000-01-20 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * generic/tclCmdIL.c (InfoBodyCmd): made [info body] return a
+ string if the body has been bytecompiled.
+ * generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_EvalObjEx): added pedantic check for

+
+ * tests/set.test: added test for complex array elem name compiling
+ * generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileSetCmd): Fixed parsing of array

+
+ * tests/var.test: Added a test for the array multiple delete
+ protection in Tcl_UnsetVar2.
+
+ * generic/tclVar.c: Added protection in Tcl_UnsetVar2 against
+ attempts to multiply delete arrays when unsetting them (bug
+ #3453). This could happen if there was an unset trace on an array
+ element and the trace proc made a global or upvar link to the
+ array, and then the array was unset at the global level. See the
+ bug reference for more information.
+
+ * unix/tclUnixTime.c: New clock format format.
+
+ * compat/strftime.c: New clock format format.

+ which lsort -dictionary [list ` AA c CC] and lsort -dictionary
+ [list AA c ` CC] gave different (and both wrong) results.
