+ * generic/tclEncoding.c:
+ * generic/tclFileName.c:
+ * mac/tclMacFile.c:
+ * unix/tclUnixFile.c:
+ * win/tclWinFile.c: enhanced the glob command with the new options

+
+1999-12-10 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * tests/var.test:
+ * generic/tclCompile.c: fixed problem where setting to {} array
+ would intermittently not work. (Fontaine) [Bug: 3339]
+
+ * generic/tclCmdMZ.c:
+ * generic/tclExecute.c: optimized INST_TRY_CVT_TO_NUMERIC to
+ recognize boolean objects. (Spjuth) [Bug: 2815]
+
+ * tests/info.test:
+ * tests/parseOld.test:
+ * generic/tclCmdAH.c:
+ * generic/tclProc.c: changed Tcl_UplevelObjCmd (uplevel) and
+ Tcl_EvalObjCmd (eval) to use TCL_EVAL_DIRECT in the single arg
+ case as well, to take advantage of potential pure list input
+ optimization. This means that it won't get byte compiled though,
+ which should be acceptable.
+ * generic/tclBasic.c: made Tcl_EvalObjEx pure list object aware in
+ the TCL_EVAL_DIRECT case for efficiency.
+ * generic/tclUtil.c: made Tcl_ConcatObj pure list object aware,
+ and return a list object in that case [Bug: 2098 2257]
+
+ * generic/tclMain.c: changed Tcl_Main to not constantly reuse the
+ commandPtr object (interactive case) as it could be shared. (Fellows)
+
+ * unix/configure.in:
+ * unix/tcl.m4:
+ * unix/tclUnixPipe.c: removed checking for compatible vfork
+ function and use of the vfork function. Modern VM systems rarely
+ suffer any performance degradation when fork is used, and it
+ solves multiple problems with vfork. Users that still want vfork
+ can add -Dfork=vfork to the compile flags. [Bug: 942 2228 1312]
+
+1999-12-09 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * win/aclocal.m4: made it just include tcl.m4
+
+ * doc/exec.n:
+ * doc/open.n:
+ * win/tclWin32Dll.c:
+ * win/tclWinChan.c:
+ * win/tclWinFCmd.c:
+ * win/tclWinInit.c:
+ * win/tclWinPipe.c:
+ * win/tclWinSock.c: removed all code that supported Win32s. It
+ was no longer officially supported, and likely didn't work anyway.
+ * win/makefile.vc: removed 16 bit stuff, cleaned up.
+
+ * win/tcl16.rc:
+ * win/tclWin16.c:
+ * win/winDumpExts.c: these files have been removed from the
+ source tree (no longer necessary to build)
+
+1999-12-07 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * tests/io.test: removed 'knownBug' tests that were for
+ unsupported0, which is now fcopy (that already has tests)
+
+ * mac/tclMacPort.h: added utime.h include
+
+ * generic/tclDate.c:
+ * unix/Makefile.in: fixed make gendate to swap const with CONST
+ so it uses the Tcl defined CONST type [Bug: 3521]
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c: removed panic that could occur in FlushChannel
+ when a "blocking" channel would receive EAGAIN, instead treating
+ it the same as non-blocking. [Bug: 3773]
+
+ * generic/tclUtil.c: fixed Tcl_ScanCountedElement to not step
+ beyond the end of the counted string [Bug: 3336]
+
+1999-12-03 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * doc/load.n: added note about NT's buggy handling of './' with
+ LoadLibrary
+
+ * library/http2.1/http.tcl: fixed error handling in http::Event
+ [Bug: 3752]
+
+ * tests/env.test: removed knownBug limitation from working test
+ * tests/all.tcl: ensured that ::tcltest::testsDirectory would be
+ set to an absolute path
+
+ * tests/expr-old.test:
+ * tests/parseExpr.test:
+ * tests/string.test:
+ * generic/tclGet.c:
+ * generic/tclInt.h:
+ * generic/tclObj.c:
+ * generic/tclParseExpr.c:
+ * generic/tclUtil.c:
+ * generic/tclExecute.c: added TclCheckBadOctal routine to enhance
+ error message checking for when users use invalid octal numbers
+ (like 08), as well as replumbed the Expr*Funcs with a new
+ VerifyExprObjType to simplify type handling. [Bug: 2467]
+
+ * tests/expr.test:
+ * generic/tclCompile.c: fixed 'bad code length' error for
+ 'expr + {[incr]}' case, with new test case [Bug: 3736]
+ and seg fault on 'expr + {[error]}' (different cause) that
+ was caused by a correct optimization that didn't correctly
+ track how it was modifying the source string in the opt.
+ The optimization was removed, which means that:
+ expr 1 + {[string length abc]}
+ will be not be compiled inline as before, but this should be
+ written:
+ expr {1 + [string length abc]}
+ which will be compiled inline for speed. This prevents
+ expr 1 + {[mindless error]}
+ from seg faulting, and only affects optimizations for
+ degenerate cases [Bug: 3737]
+
+1999-12-01 Scott Redman <redman@scriptics.com>
+
+ * generic/tcl.decls :
+ * generic/tclMain.c :
+ * unix/tclAppInit.c:
+ * win/tclAppInit.c: Added two new internal functions,
+ TclSetStartupScriptFileName() and TclGetStartupScriptFileName()
+ and added hooks into the main() code for supporting TclPro and
+ other "big" shells more easily without requiring a copy of the
+ main() code.
+
+ * generic/tclEncoding.c:
+ * generic/tclEvent.c: Moved encoding-related startup code from
+ tclEvent.c into the more appropriate tclEncoding.c.
+
+1999-11-30 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c: fix from Kupries for Tcl_UnstackChannel that
+ correctly handles resetting translation and encoding.
+
+ * generic/tclLoad.c: #def'd out the unloading of DLLs at finalize
+ time for Unix in TclFinalizeLoad. [Bug: 2560 3373] Should be

+
+ * win/tclWinTime.c: fixed handling of %Z on NT for time zones
+ that don't have DST.

+
+ * library/tcltest1.0/tcltest.tcl: Fixed bug where tcltest output
+ went to stdout instead of the specified output file in some
+ cases.
+
+1999-11-19 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>

+
+ * doc/http.n:
+ * library/http2.1/http.tcl:

+1999-11-18 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * unix/tcl.m4: added defined for _THREAD_SAFE in --enable-threads
+ case; added check for pthread_mutex_init in libc; in AIX case,

+ * generic/tclScan.c: finished support for inline scan by
+ supporting XPG identifiers.
+
+ * doc/http.n:
+ * library/http2.1/http.tcl: added register and unregister
+ commands to http:: package (better support for tls/SSL),
+ as well as -type argument to http::geturl. [RFE: 2617]
+

+
+1999-11-17 Brent Welch <welch@scriptics.com>
+ * library/http2.1/http.tcl: Correctly fixed the -timeout
+ problem mentioned in the 10-29 change. Also added error
+ handling for failed writes on the socket during the protocol.
+
+1999-11-09 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * doc/open.n: corrected docs for 'a' open mode.
+
+ * generic/tclIOUtil.c: changed Tcl_Alloc to ckalloc
+
+ * generic/tclInt.h:
+ * generic/tclObj.c: rolled back changes from 1999-10-29
+ Purify noted new leaks with that code

+ * tools/tcl.wse.in: updated to 8.3a1, fixed install of twind.tcl
+ and koi8-r.enc files
+
+ * unix/tcl.m4: added recognition of pthreads library for AIX
+
+1999-10-29 Brent Welch <welch@scriptics.com>
+ * generic/tclInt.h: Modified the TclNewObj and TclDecrRefCount
+ in two ways. First, in the case of TCL_THREADS, we do not use
+ the special Tcl_Obj allocator because that is a source of
+ lock contention. Second, general code cleanup to eliminate
+ duplicated code. In particular, TclDecrRefCount now uses
+ TclFreeObj instead of duplicating that code, so it is now
+ identical to Tcl_DecrRefCount.
+
+ * generic/tclObj.c: Changed Tcl_NewObj so it uses the
+ TclNewObj macro instead of duplicating the code. Adjusted
+ TclFreeObj so it understands the TCL_THREADS case described
+ above.
+
+ * library/http2.1/http.tcl: Fixed a bug in the handling of
+ the state(status) variable when the -timeout flag is specified.
+ Previously it was possible to leave the status undefined
+ instead of empty, which caused errors in http::status

+ which is not portable).
+
+ * generic/tclEnv.c: fixed possible ABR error in environ array
+
+ * tests/scan.test:
+ * generic/tclScan.c: added support for use of inline scan,
+ XPG3 currently not included
+
+ * tests/incr.test:
+ * tests/set.test:
+ * generic/tclCompCmds.c: fixed improper bytecode handling of
+ 'eval {set array($unknownvar) 5}' (also for incr) [Bug: 3184]
+
+ * win/tclWinTest.c: added testvolumetype command, as atime is
+ completely ignored for Windows FAT file systems

+
+ * library/http2.1/http.tcl: protected gets with catch [Bug: 2665]
+
+1999-10-19 Jennifer Hom <jenn@scriptics.com>
+
+ * tests/tcltest.test:
+ * doc/tcltest.n:
+ * library/tcltest1.0/tcltest.tcl: Removed the extra return at the
+ end of the tcltest.tcl file, added version information about tcl.
+
+ Applied patches sent in by Andreas Kupries to add helper procs for
+ debug output, add 3 new flags (-testsdir, -load, -loadfile), and
+ internally refactors common code for dealing with paths into
+ separate procedures. [Bug: 2838, 2842]
+
+ Merged code from core-8-2-1 branch that changes the checks for the
+ value of tcl_interactive to also incorporate a check for the
+ existence of the variable.
+
+ * tests/autoMkindex.test:

+ ::tcltest::testsDirectory at the beginning of the test run
+

+ * tests/unixNotfy.test: Added explicit exits needed to avoid
+ problems when the tests area run in wish.
+
+1999-10-12 Jim Ingham <jingham@scriptics.com>
+
+ * mac/tclMacLoad.c: Stupid bug - we converted the filename to
+ external, but used the unconverted version.
+ * mac/tclMacFCmd.c: Fix a merge error in the bug fix for [Bug: 2869]
+

+
+ * unix/Makefile.in: Added the Windows configure script to the
+ distribution file list, already shipping configure.in and the .m4
+ files, but needed the configure script itself.
+

+ * tests/string.test:
+ * generic/tclVar.c (Tcl_SetVar2Ex):

+
+1999-05-18 <stanton@scriptics.com>
+
+ * win/tclWinChan.c: Modified initialization code to avoid

+
+ * unix/Makefile.in:
+ * unix/tclAppInit.c: Minor cleanup related to Xt notifier.
+
+ * unix/tclUnixInit.c (TclpSetInitialEncodings): Tcl now looks for
+ an encoding subfield in the LANG/LC_ALL variables in cases where
+ the locale is not found in the locale table. Ensure that
+ setlocale() is called at least once so X11 will initialize
+ properly. Also, forces the LC_NUMERIC locale to be "C" so numeric
+ processing in scripts is not affected by the current locale
+ setting. [Bug: 1989]
+
+ * generic/tclRegexp.c: Increased per-thread regexp cache to 30
+ slots. This seems to be about the right number for larger
+ applications like exmh. [Bug: 1063]
+
+1999-05-12 <stanton@scriptics.com>

+
+ * tests/regexp.test:
+ * generic/tclInt.h:
+ * generic/tclBasic.c:
+ * generic/tclRegexp.h:
+ * generic/tclRegexp.c: Replaced the per-interpreter regexp cache
+ with a per-thread cache. Changed the Regexp object to take
+ advantage of this extra cache. Added a reference count to the
+ TclRegexp type so regexps can be shared by multiple objects.
+ Removed the per-interp regexp cache from the interpreter. Now
+ regexps can be used with no need for an interpreter. [Bug: 1063]
+
+ * win/tclWinInit.c (TclpSetVariables): Avoid calling GetUserName
+ if the value can be determined from the USERNAME environment

+
+ * generic/tclLoadNone.c: Updated to use current interfaces, added
+ TclpUnloadFile. [Bug: 2003]
+

+ -nocase option to "string map". Changed index syntax to allow
+ integer or end?-integer? instead of a full expression. This is
+ much simpler with safeTcl scripts since it avoids double
+ substitution issues.
+
+ * doc/Utf.3:

+ * tests/string.test:
+ * generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_StringObjCmd):
+ * generic/tclUtil.c (TclGetIntForIndex): Applied Jeff Hobbs's
+ string patch which includes the following changes [Bug: 1845]:
+
+ - string compare now takes optional length arg (for strncmp
+ behavior)
+
+ - added string equal (just a few lines of code blended
+ in with string compare)
+
+ - added string icompare/iequal for case-insensitive comparisons
+
+ - string index's index can now be ?end[+-]?expression
+ I made this change in the private TclGetIntForIndex,
+ which means that the list commands also benefit, as
+ well as string range, et al.
+
+ - added [string repeat string count]
+ Repeats given string number of times
+
+ - added string replace, string equiv to lreplace
+ (quasi opposite of string range):
+ string replace first last ?string?
+ Example of use, replacing end of string with ...
+ should the string be more than 16 chars long:
+ string replace $string 16 end "..."
+ This just returns the string len < 16, so it
+ will only affect the long strings.
+
+ - added optional first and last args to string to*
+ This allows you to just affect certain regions of
+ a string with the command (like just capping the
+ first letter). I found the original totitle to
+ be too draconian to be useful.
+
+ - added [string map charMap string]
+ where charMap is a {from to from to} list that equates to
+ what one might get from [array get]. Each and
+ can be multiple chars (or none at all). For Tcl/CGI users,
+ this is a MAJOR speed booster.
+
+ * generic/tclParse.c (Tcl_ParseCommand): Changed to avoid
+ modifying eval'ed strings that are already null terminated.
+ [Bug: 1793]
+
+ * tests/binary.test:
+ * generic/tclBinary.c (DupByteArrayInternalRep): Fixed bug where
+ type was not being set in duplicated object. [Bug: 1975, 2047]
+
+1999-04-30 <stanton@scriptics.com>
+
+ * Changed version to 8.1.1.
+
+1999-04-30 <stanton@scriptics.com>
+
+ * Merged changes from 8.1.0 branch:
+
+ * generic/tclParse.c: Fixed memory leak in CommandComplete.
+
+ * generic/tclPlatDecls.h:
+ * generic/tclIntPlatDecls.h:
+ * generic/tclIntDecls.h:
+ * generic/tclDecls.h:
+ * tools/genStubs.tcl: Added 'extern "C" {}' block around the stub
+ table pointer declaration so the stub library can be used from
+ C++. [Bug: 1934]
+
+ * Lots of documentation and other release engineering fixes.
+
+1999-04-28 <stanton@scriptics.com>
+
+ * mac/tclMacResource.c:
+ * generic/tclListObj.c:
+ * generic/tclObj.c:
+ * generic/tclStringObj.c: Changed to avoid freeing the string
+ representation before freeing the internal rep. This helps with
+ debugging since the string rep will still be valid when the free
+ proc is invoked.
+
+1999-04-27 <stanton@scriptics.com>
+
+ * generic/tclLiteral.c (TclHideLiteral): Fixed so hidden literals
+ get duplicated to avoid accidental sharing in the global object
+ table.
+
+1999-04-23 <stanton@scriptics.com>
+
+ * generic/tclStubInit.c:
+ * tools/genStubs.tcl: Changed to avoid the need for forward

+
+1999-04-23 <stanton@scriptics.com>
+
+ * library/encoding/koi8-r.enc:
+ * tools/encoding/koi8-r.txt: Added support for the koi8-r Cyrillic
+ encoding. [Bug: 1771]
+
+1999-04-22 <stanton@scriptics.com>
+
+ * win/tclWinFCmd.c:
+ * win/tclWin32Dll.c: Changed uses of "try" to "__try", since that
+ is the actual keyword. This eliminates the need for some -D flags
+ from the makefile.
+
+ * generic/tclPort.h: Added include of tcl.h since it defines
+ various Windows macros that are needed before deciding which
+ platform porting file to use.
+
+ * generic/tclEvent.c: lint
+
+ * win/tclWinInit.c (TclpInitPlatform): Added call to TclWinInit
+ when building a static library since DllMain will not be invoked.
+ This could break old code that explicitly called TclWinInit, but
+ should be simpler in the long run.
+
+1999-04-22 Scott Stanton <stanton@scriptics.com>
+
+ * generic/tclInt.h:
+ * generic/tclInt.decls:
+ * generic/tclCompile.c: Added TclSetByteCodeFromAny that takes a
+ hook procedure to invoke after compilation but before the byte
+ codes are emitted. This makes it possible to do postprocessing on
+ the compiled byte codes before the ByteCode is generated.
+
+ * generic/tclLiteral.c: Added TclHideLiteral and TclAddLiteralObj
+ to make it possible to create local unshared literal objects.
+
+ * win/tclWinInit.c:
+ * unix/tclUnixInit.c: Changed initial search path to match that
+ found used by tcl_findLibrary.
+
+1999-04-22 <redman@scriptics.com>
+
+ * win/tclWinPort.h:
+ * win/tclWinSock.c: Added code to use WinSock 2.0 API on NT to
+ avoid creating a window to handle sockets. API not available on
+ Win95 and needs to be fixed on Win98, until then continue to use
+ the older (window-based) scheme on those two OSes.
+
+1999-04-15 <stanton@scriptics.com>

+ * library/encoding/euc-cn.enc:
+ * tools/encoding/gb2312.txt:
+ * tools/encoding/cp950.txt:
+ * tools/encoding/Makefile: Restored the double byte definition of
+ GB2312 and added the EUC-CN encoding. EUC-CN is a variant of
+ GB2312 that shifts the characters into bytes with the high bit set
+ and includes ASCII as a subset. [Bug: 632]
+
+1999-04-13 <redman@scriptics.com>
+
+ * win/tclWinSock.c: Apply patch to allow write access to a socket
+ if FD_WRITE is sent but FD_CONNECT is not. Some strange problem
+ with either Win32 or a socket driver. [Bug: 1664 1776]
+
+1999-04-09 <redman@scriptics.com>
+
+ * unix/tclUnixNotfy.c: Fixed notifier deadlock situation when the
+ pipe used to talk back notifier thread is filled with data. When
+ calling the write() function to feed data down that pipe, unlock
+ the notifierMutex to allow the notifier to wake up again. Found
+ as a result of the focus.test for Tk hanging. [Bug: 1700]
+
+1999-04-06 <stanton@scriptics.com>
+
+ * tests/unixNotfy.test: Fixed hang in tests when built with thread

+
+ * tests/unixInit.test: Fixed race condition in test.
+

+
+1999-04-06 <surles@scriptics.com>
+
+ * generic/tclVar.c:
+ * generic/tclEnv.c: Moved the "array set" C level code into a

+ this API to create an env array w/ no elements.
+
+ * generic/tclEnv.c:
+ * generic/tclWinInit.h:
+ * generic/tclUnixInit.h:
+ * generic/tclInt.h: Made the Env module I18N compliant. Changed the

+ 1299, 1500]
+
+1999-04-05 <stanton@scriptics.com>
+
+ * tests/io.test: Minor test cleanup.

+
+ * unix/configure.in:
+ * unix/tclUnixPort.h: Applied patch for OS/390 to handle lack of
+ sys/param.h. [Bug: 1725]

+
+ * tests/safe.test:
+ * doc/safe.n:
+ * generic/tclBasic.c:
+ * library/safe.tcl: The encoding command is not safe as-is, so
+ create a safe alias to mask out the "encoding system <name>" but
+ allow all other uses including "encoding system". Added test cases
+ and updated the man page for Safe Tcl.
+
+1999-04-05 <stanton@scriptics.com>
+
+ * tests/winTime.test:
+ * win/tclWinTime.c: Fixed crash in clock command that occurred

+ * tests/platform.test:
+ * tests/fileName.test: Fixed broken tests.
+
+ * generic/tclFileName.c: Moved global regexps into thread local

+ should work the same as Unix: fileevents fire when an entire line
+ is ready, and gets and read do not block in non-blocking mode.

+ * win/tclAppInit.c:
+ * unix/tclAppInit.c:
+ * mac/tclMacAppInit.c:
+ * generic/tclTest.c: Changed some EXTERN declarations to extern

+
+ * library/init.tcl: Various small changes requested by Jan Nijtmans.
+ - If the variable $tcl_library contains the empty string, this
+ empty string will be put in $auto_path. This is not useful at all,
+ it only slows down later package processing.
+ - If the variable tcl_pkgPath is not set, the "unset __dir"
+ fails. Thich makes init.tcl totally unusable. Better put a "catch"
+ around it.
+ - In the function tcl_findLibraries, the "string match" function
+ only works correctly if $tcl_patchLevel is in one of the forms
+ "?.?a?", "?.?b?" or "?.?.?". Could a "regexp" be used instead,
+ then it allows anything to be appended to the patchLevel
+ string. And it is more efficient.
+ - The tclPkgSetup function assumes that if $type != "load" then
+ the type must be "source". This needn't be true. Some users want
+ to add their own setup types.
+ [RFE: 1138] [Bug: 978]

+ changes from Mark Harrison.
+
+1998-12-04 <stanton@GASPODE>
+
+ * library/msgcat1.0/msgcat.tcl: Changed code to conform to Tcl

+1998-12-03 <stanton@GASPODE>
+
+ * win/tclWinPipe.c (BuildCommandLine): Fixed bug that kept
+ arguments containing spaces from being properly quoted.
+
+ * tests/defs: Changed so auto_path is set to only contain the Tcl
+ library directory. This keeps the tests from accidentally picking
+ up stuff in installed packages.
+
+ * generic/tclUtil.c (Tcl_StringMatch): Changed to match 8.0
+ behavior in corner case where there is no closing bracket.
+
+1998-12-02 <stanton@GASPODE>
+
+ * win/tclWinPipe.c (TclpCreateCommandChannel): Changed
+ reader/writer threads to have THREAD_PRIORITY_HIGHEST so they will
+ have a chance to run whenever there is something to do.
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c (WriteBytes, WriteChars): Fixed so extraneous
+ flushes do not happen in line mode.

+
+ * generic/tclCmdAH.c (Tcl_EncodingObjCmd): Changed to avoid using
+ Tcl_DStringResult because it is not binary clean.
+
+ * generic/tclParse.c (Tcl_ParseCommand): Fixed bug in comment
+ parsing where a trailing comment looked like an incomplete
+ command.
+
+1998-12-02 <welch@SAGE>
+
+ * Merged changes from 8.0.4, especially the new pkg_mkIndex
+
+1998-12-01 <stanton@GASPODE>
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_ReadChars): Added a call to UpdateInterest

+
+ * tests/parse.test: Updated tests for EvalObjv change.

+
+ * generic/tclTestObj.c (TeststringobjCmd): MAX_STRINGS was off by one
+ so the strings array was too small.
+
+ * generic/tclCkalloc.c (Tcl_DbCkfree): Moved mutex lock so
+ ValidateMemory is done inside the mutex to avoid a race condition
+ when validate_memory is enabled. [Bug: 880]
+
+1998-11-23 <stanton@GASPODE>
+
+ * regexec.c: more performance tuning from Henry Spencer.
+
+1998-11-17 <stanton@GASPODE>
+
+ * tclScan.c: moved "scan" implementation out of tclCmdMZ.c and
+ added Unicode support. This required a complete reimplementation
+ of the command to avoid using scanf(), which isn't Unicode aware.
+ Two new features were added in the process: %n to return the
+ current number of characters consumed, and XPG3-style %n$ argument
+ order specifiers similar to those provided by the "format"
+ command. [Bug: 833]
+
+ * tclAlloc.c: changed so allocated memory is always 8-byte aligned
+ to improve memory performance and to ensure that it will work on
+ systems that don't like accessing 4-byte aligned values
+ (e.g. Solaris and HP-UX). [Bug: 834]

+
+ * auto.tcl, package.tcl: fixed SCCS strings

+ arbitrary side effects
+
+ * tclInterp.c: added guard against deleting current interpreter
+
+ * tclMacFile.c, tclUnixFile.c, tclWinFile.c, tclFileName.c: added

+ * library/opt/pkgIndex.tcl: Where [uplevel] is used in a proc

+ 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

+
+2000-12-08 Andreas Kupries <a.kupries@westend.com>
+
+ * generic/tclEncoding.c (LoadTableEncoding): Changed dangerous

+ without affecting the speed when loading encodings.
+
+2000-12-08 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>

+
+ * generic/tclCkalloc.c: Added

+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.

+ * 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

+ 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

+
+ * tests/clock.test: corrected clock-2.* test numbering
+
+ * unix/configure.in (SC_TCL_LINK_LIBS): removed code that was

+
+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]

+ ** 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
+ tcltest::restoreState to 2, for consistancy with the debug level
+ 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
+ variable from "unsigned int" to "int", to match usage when passed
+ to TclpFindVariable [Bug: 6126].
+
+2000-08-10 Eric Melski <ericm@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * library/msgcat1.0/pkgIndex.tcl: Bumped version number to 1.2
+ [Bug: 6100].
+
+ * library/msgcat1.0/msgcat.tcl: Removed erroneous [package forget]
+ in msgcat namespace initializer. 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
+ name tclObjMutex to ObjMutex. Put the correct name back.
+
+2000-08-07 Eric Melski <ericm@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * tests/indexObj.test: Added tests using the [testwrongnumargs]
+ command to test Tcl_WrongNumArgs.
+
+ * generic/tclTest.c (TestWrongNumArgsObjCmd): Added test function
+ for the Tcl_WrongNumArgs function.
+
+ * generic/tclIndexObj.c (Tcl_WrongNumArgs): Corrected algorithm to
+ not insert a space before the message component when objc == 0
+ [Bug: 6078].
+
+2000-07-27 Mo DeJong <mdejong@redhat.com>
+
+ * win/configure.in: TCL_STUB_LIB_FLAG should not

+ * win/tclWinInit.c: Thread-safe rewrite for tclAsync.c. Added
+ notifier alerting on all platforms as it was only working on Win
+ 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].

+ * 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,
+ Tcl_IsChannelShared, Tcl_CutChannel, Tcl_SpliceChannel,
+ Tcl_IsChannelExisting and Tcl_ClearChannelHandlers.
+
+ * doc/Thread.3: Added documentation for Tcl_JoinThread.

+ documented on the page, so that mkLinks will know about the
+ functions listed there, and so that the Windows help file index
+ will get set up correctly [Bug: 1898, 5273].

+
+2000-04-23 Jim Ingham <jingham@cygnus.com>
+
+ These changes make some error handling marginally better for Mac
+ sockets. It is still somewhat flakey, however.
+
+ * 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.
+ If the call returns an error, then the buffer is not right.
+ * 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
+ socket errors out, then return EWOULDBLOCK & error out.
+ * mac/tclMacSock.c (NotifyRoutine): Added a NotifyRoutine for
+ experimenting with MacTCP.
+
+2000-04-22 Jim Ingham <jingham@cygnus.com>
+
+ * library/package.tcl (tclPkgUnknown): Fixed a typo in the Mac package
+ search part of tclPkgUnknown.
+
+2000-04-21 Sandeep Tamhankar <sandeep@scriptics.com>
+
+ * 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).
+
+2000-04-21 Brent Welch <welch@scriptics.com>
+
+ * library/http2.1/http.tcl: More thrashing with the "server closes
+ without reading post data" scenario. Reverted to the previous
+ filevent configuratiuon, which seems to work better with small
+ amounts of post data.
+
+2000-04-20 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * generic/tclAlloc.c: wrapped caddr_t define to not be done on Unix
+ * unix/tclUnixPort.h: added Tclp*Alloc defines to allow the use of
+ USE_TCLALLOC on Unix. [Bug: 4731]
+

+
+ * library/dde1.1/pkgIndex.tcl:
+ * library/reg1.0/pkgIndex.tcl:
+ * win/tclWinChan.c:

+
+ * doc/Thread.3: minor macro cleanup

+
+2000-04-11 Eric Melski <ericm@scriptics.com>
+
+ * win/tclWinPipe.c: Added "CONST" keyword to declaration of char
+ *native in TclpCreateTempFile, to supress compiler warnings.
+
+2000-04-10 Brent Welch <welch@scriptics.com>
+
+ * generic/tcl.h: Fixed Tcl_CreateThread declaration.
+ * library/tcltest1.0/tcltest.tcl: Fixed the "mainThread"

+ * unix/tclUnixThrd.c: Fixed compiler warning when compiling
+ with -DTCL_THREADS
+
+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
+ ::tcltest" to "namespace import -force ::tcltest" [Bug: 3948].
+
+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>
+
+ * generic/tclCmdIL.c (InfoVarsCmd): checked for non-NULL procPtr
+ to prevent itcl info override crash [Bug: 4064]
+
+ * tests/foreach.test:
+ * tests/namespace.test:
+ * tests/var.test: Added lsorts to avoid random sorted return
+ problems. [Bug: 2682]
+
+ * tests/fileName.test: fixed 14.1 test fragility [Bug: 1482]
+
+ * 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.

+
+2000-02-10 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>

+
+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:

+
+ * library/init.tcl: auto_load was using [info commands $name] to

+ protection in Tcl_UnsetVar2.
+
+ * generic/tclVar.c: Added protection in Tcl_UnsetVar2 against
+ attempts to multiply delete arrays when unsetting them (bug

+ array, and then the array was unset at the global level. See the
+ bug reference for more information.

+
+ * tools/tcl.wse.in: Fix for #495120. tcl.wse.in was

+
+ Up-port to 8.4 of mac code changes for 8.3.3 & various new
+ changes for 8.4, some already backported to 8.3.4 (patch #435658)
+
+ * generic/tclObj.c: added #include to fix missing prototype errors
+
+ * generic/tcl.h: MAC_TCL: addition of ConditionalMacros.h and use of
+ DLLIMPORT and DLLEXPORT like on other platforms. ( => no longer need
+ the .exp files and can remove use of #pragma export that never worked
+ well)
+ removed line continuation in #if clause as this breaks the mac
+ resource compiler (note that *.r files include tcl.h)
+
+ * mac/tclMacFile.c: fixed bug in permission checking code
+
+ * mac/tclMacLoad.c: corrected utf8 handling, comparison of
+ package names to code fragment names changed to only match on the
+ length of package name, this allows for fragment names with version
+ numbers appended
+
+ * mac/tclMacInt.h:
+ * generic/tclInt.h:
+ * mac/tclMacTime.c:
+ * generic/tclIOUtil.c: moved declaration of TclpGetGMTOffset()
+
+ * mac/tclMacShLib.exp:

+ * mac/MW_TclBuildLibHeader.pch:

+
+ * mac/MW_TclAppleScriptHeader.pch:
+ * mac/MW_TclHeader.pch:
+ * mac/MW_TclTestHeader.pch:
+ * mac/tclMacCommonPch.h: revised precompiled header handling: now
+ include a common header file 'MW_TclHeaderCommon.h' from all .pch
+ files, the .pch files themselves now only setup #defines (e.g.
+ BUILD_tcl, STATIC_BUILD, TCL_DEBUG, TCL_THREADS) like in makefiles on
+ other platforms.
+
+ * mac/tclMac.h:
+ * mac/tclMacPort.h:
+ * mac/tclMacInt.h: use of BUILD_tcl and TCL_STORAGE_CLASS like on other
+ platforms, standardize #include'd files to what's done on other
+ platforms, removed use of #pragma export.
+
+ * mac/tcltkMacBuildSupport.sea.hqx: new archive of mac build support
+ files & suggested build environment directory hierarchy:
+ 'Building MacTclTk' & 'CW Pro6 changes' readme's.
+ projects for MoreFiles 1.5.2 static & shared libraries.
+ project & sources for 'pseudoCarbonSupport', see below.
+ included XML versions of the projects for CW Pro5 or Pro7 users.
+
+ * mac/tclMacProjects.sea.hqx: updated mac build project files:
+ build support for CodeWarrior Pro6, UnivIntf 3.4 & shared runtime
+ libraries: the MSL libraries and MoreFiles are no longer compiled into
+ Tcl.shlb, all non-static binaries now use the Pro6 shared runtime
+ libraries and MoreFiles.shlb. These shlbs are merged into the standard
+ Wish and TclShell, but 3rd party applications linking with Tcl.shlb or
+ Tk.shlb need to setup access to them. (see the "(sh-ppc)" targets
+ for how to do this.)
+ included XML versions of the projects for CW Pro5 or Pro7 users.
+ use compat/strtod.c instead of MSL's strtod()
+ use WASTE versions of MSL for tcl test target to avoid text buffer
+ cutoff at 32k.
+ Merging the full MSL.shlb and the other shlbs into Wish & TclShell
+ makes them a bit larger than before, use unmerged binaries to avoid
+ copying the shared code with every application, e.g. when deploying
+ numerous Wish based droplets.
+ Note that using CW Pro5 to compile extensions is in principle still
+ possible, but need to link with Pro6 runtime libraries.
+ Tclapplescript now loads and runs on CFM68k.
+ Highly experimental "pseudoCarbon" support for Tcl only on OS 8/9:
+ binaries in "Build:(Carbon):" link against CarbonLib instead of
+ InterfaceLib, however the actual code has not been carbonized! i.e. it
+ will not run on OSX and may not even run properly with CarbonLib.
+ This should in principle allow you to build & test OS9 CFM Carbon
+ binaries that need to link with Tcl.shlb. On OSX you can use the
+ native Tcl.framework, but you have to build a MachO binary as there
+ is no CFM glue lib for Tcl.framework.
+ the library pseudoCarbonSupport.shlb manually loads the symbols
+ from InterfaceLib that are not in CarbonLib but are needed by the
+ uncarbonized code in Tcl.shlb and TclShell.
+
+ * generic/tclMain.c: MAC_TCL: workaround for broken/non-standard isatty
+ on MW Pro6, #include <unistd.h> instead of defining isatty
+
+ * mac/tclMacPort.h: MW Pro6 changes for MSL fcntl.h, stat.h & isatty
+
+ * mac/tclMacAppInit.c: add EXTERN to InstallConsole to enable DLL
+ export via the TCL_STORAGE_CLASS mechanism.
+
+ * mac/tclMacFCmd.c: fix for FSpDirectoryCopy API change
+
+ * mac/tclMacLibrary.c: emit compile time error when
+ TCL_REGISTER_LIBRARY and USE_TCL_STUBS are both defined at the same
+ time in an extension, this use is not currently supported and will
+ result in a crash when dynamically loading the extension.
+
+ * mac/tclMacApplication.r:
+ * mac/tclMacLibrary.r:
+ * mac/tclMacOSA.r:
+ * mac/tclMacResource.r: fixed obsolete copyrights/dates in version
+ strings; updated version strings to standard usage; added support for
+ '(Support Libraries)' subfolder for shared runtime libraries in
+ unmerged binaries; commented out demo setting of "Tcl Environment
+ Variables"; reorganized resources among these files to avoid
+ multiple copies in applications and shared libraries, the script
+ libraries are now no longer duplicated in Tclsh but are only included
+ in the resources of Tcl.shlb.
+
+ * mac/tclMacChan.c:
+ * mac/tclMacSock.c: cast for *BlockMode
+
+ * mac/tclMacUtil.c:
+ * mac/tclMacMath.h: removed obsolete hypot() definition
+
+ * generic/tclIntPlatDecls.h:

+ * generic/tclStubInit.c:
+ * mac/tclMacNotify.c:
+ * mac/tclMacOSA.c:
+ * mac/tclMacUtil.c:
+ * generic/tclThreadTest.c: renamed routines conflicting with standard
+ Apple or MoreFiles headers (at compile or link time):
+ GetGlobalMouse -> GetGlobalMouseTcl
+ FSpGetDirectoryID -> FSpGetDirectoryIDTcl
+ FSpOpenResFileCompat -> FSpOpenResFileCompatTcl
+ FSpCreateResFileCompat -> FSpCreateResFileCompatTcl
+ NewThread -> NewTestThread
+ the renamed MoreFiles *Tcl routines are just wrappers calling into the
+ MoreFiles DLL.
+
+ * mac/tclMacCommonPch.h:
+ * mac/tclMacThrd.c:
+ * mac/tclMacPanic.c: removed OLDROUTINENAMES define, renamed obsolete
+ apple API names to modern equivalents; UH3.4 support: added #include
+ <ControlDefinitions.h>, updated New*Proc() calls to New*UPP().
+
+ * mac/tclMacUnix.c: added missing (Tcl_Obj ***) cast to
+ Tcl_ListObjGetElements call
+
+ * mac/tclMacAlloc.c: modernized TclpSysAlloc() to use temporary
+ memory instead of system heap memory when available (MacOS
+ >= 7.5 and possibly earlier, use of system heap has been
+ discouraged for a long time and has many disadvantages, e.g. memory
+ isn't paged out, and errors can very easily bring the system down);
+ fixed crashing bug in TclpSysRealloc() and CleanUpExitProc() where
+ memory was being accessed after having been deallocated; fixed
+ memory leak in (de)allocation code (for every block ever allocated
+ with TclpSysAlloc, a Ptr was leaked), if temporary memory is
+ available, don't track allocated memory, instead use
+ RecoverHandle() to get Handle from Ptr, otherwise use doubly linked
+ list to correctly track memory and free all allocated memory; added
+ new option for ConfigureMemory: MEMORY_DONT_USE_TEMPMEM, disables
+ use of temporary memory even when it would be available, only
+ necessary when writing e.g. a driver (using tcl??); increased
+ fraction of application heap reserved for OS routines to 512K
+
+ * compat/strftime.c:
+ * mac/tclMacTime.c:
+ * mac/tclMacPort.h:
+ * generic/tclInt.decls:
+ * generic/tclIntPlatDecls.h:
+ * generic/tclStubInit.c: timezone support for mac via
+ TclpGetTZName() like on windows, using an inverse timezone table
+ adapted from tclDate.c to map gmtoffset in seconds gotten from
+ the MacOS APIs to a timezone string, as there is no good way to get
+ this info from MacOS. I had to make up some unusual timezones and
+ arbitrarily decide on the most standard of the multiple choices
+ available for every timezone.
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c: workaround for a MSL bug/misfeature: for
+ very small floats, MSL can return errno ERANGE but a
+ non-zero value ( < LDBL_MIN however)
+
+ * mac/tclMacAppInit.c: support for WASTE text library using
+ temporary memory, setting has no effect if WASTE is not used.
+
+ * mac/tclMacPanic.c: removed duplicate code from generic/tclPanic.c
+ and added that file to projects instead.
+
+ * tests/all.tcl: set tcltest::singleProcess 1 as multiple processes
+ are not available on the mac.
+
+ * tests/cmdAH.test: access time not available on the mac, skip the
+ atime touch test

+ extensions. [Patch #483500, TIP#73]
+
+ * generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_TimeObjCmd): Corrected an error in the

+
+ * generic/tclBasic.c
+ * generic/tclCompile.h:
+ * generic/tclExecute.c: moving all code relative to bytecodes from
+ tclBasic.c to tclExecute.c - the functions RecordTracebackInfo and
+ Tcl_ExprObj went to tclExecute.c, and new interface function was
+ defined (TclCompEvalObj).
+ The final objective of this sequence of moves is to provide a
+ clean, clear-cut interface between Tcl's core and the

+2001-11-20 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclBasic.c
+ * generic/tclCompile.h:

+ nesting level is acceptable). Passed the responsibility of calling
+ it to the *callers* of TclEvalObjvInternal.

+
+ * unix/tclUnixInit.c (TclpSetInitialEncodings): update of patch
+ from 2001-11-16 that uses the old Tcl encoding check mechanism as
+ a fallback to the original. Also added a TCL_DEFAULT_ENCODING
+ #define (defaults to iso8859-1). Tcl will first try setlocale and
+ nl_langinfo, and if that fails, guess based on certain LANG|LC_*

+ Tcl_GlobalEvalObj.

+ something is better than nothing...
+
+ * generic/tclVar.c (Tcl_TraceVar2, Tcl_UntraceVar2): Added missing

+ combination.
+ * generic/tclCmdMZ.c (TraceVarProc): Added missing test for NULL
+ when deleting a trace that doesn't cause an error.
+
+ * doc/TraceVar.3: Added documentation for change due to TIP#68.
+
+ * generic/tclCmdMZ.c (TraceVarInfo): Removed problematic errMsg
+ field from structure.
+ (TraceVarProc): Removed references to errMsg field and changed
+ handling of errors so that they returned a Tcl_Obj* containing the
+ error string. This minimizes the number of calls to the memory
+ management subsystem.
+ (TclTraceCommandObjCmd, TraceCommandProc): Removed references to
+ errMsg field which was never used in command traces in any case.
+ (Tcl_TraceObjCmd, TclTraceVariableObjCmd): Removed references to
+ errMsg field and made variable traces register with
+ TCL_TRACE_RESULT_OBJECT bit set.
+
+ * generic/tcl.h (TCL_TRACE_RESULT_DYNAMIC,TCL_TRACE_RESULT_OBJECT):
+ New constants to define how to handle the strings returned from

+ * win/tcl.dsp: winhelp target fixes for non-NT systems. It
+ seems NMAKE under these remembers changed directories during

+ <peter.spjuth@space.se> to specify a pattern file from the
+ commandline and redirecting output to a file when not under

+2001-11-08 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * unix/Makefile.in:
+ * unix/dltest/Makefile.in:
+ Avoid adding libc to the LIBS variable since it

+
+2001-11-08 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
+
+ * win/rules.vc:
+ * win/makefile.vc: Fixed install target to adjust for the
+ different build types. Added a 'linkexten' option to link the
+ win extensions inside the shell when built static. Placed
+ win/tclAppInit.c patch in SF patch DB for approval. 'profile'
+ option not hooked in yet. Everything else know is done.
+
+ * win/tcl.dsp(new):

+
+ * unix/Makefile.in:
+ * win/Makefile.in:
+ Print a message indicating that the user should

+ since there may be no tclsh on the system and that
+ would cause bootstrap problems. [Tcl bug 465874]

+ Define TCL_INCLUDE_SPEC in tclConfig.sh. It should be

+
+ * win/rules.vc:
+ * win/makefile.vc: Dropped the NOMSVCRT macro and put it on the

+ NOMSVCRT=0 would only be the valid setting. Fixed the dde and reg
+ extension for building static. Improved, but not perfected, the
+ winhelp target.
+
+2001-11-07 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * win/README: Change minimum VC++ version to 5.X since

+ * win/configure: Regen.
+ * win/configure.in: Error out if user tries to compile the

+
+2001-11-06 Andreas Kupries <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c (ReadChars): Fixed bug #478856 reported by
+ Stuart Cassoff <stwo@users.sourceforge.net>. The bug caused loss
+ of fileevents when [read]ing less data from the channel than
+ buffered. Due to an empty input buffer the flag
+ CHANNEL_NEED_MORE_DATA was set but never reset, causing the I/O
+ system to wait for more data instead of using a timer to
+ synthesize fileevents and to flush the pending data out of the
+ buffers.
+
+2001-11-06 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
+
+ * win/rules.vc (new):
+ * win/makefile.vc: Complete over/under rewrite to support numerous
+ build options all from the commandline itself without needing to
+ edit the makefile. Now requires vcvars32.bat to be run prior to
+ running nmake for bootstraping the environment. Fully doc'd usage
+ for it is in makefile.vc. Commentary welcome. Sticky points left
+ are:
+
+ 1) winhelp target shows errors in the converting script.
+ 2) .rc scripts aren't getting the right #defines to build the correct
+ "OriginalFilename" strings. (have patch, won't commit yet)
+ 3) Naming convention with suffixes describing the buildtype are 'tsdx'
+ which will need public acceptance. ie. tclsh84tsx.exe is a (t)
+ threaded shell (s) statically linked to the core and (x) uses
+ msvcrt instead of libcmt.

+
+2001-10-29 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
+
+ * unix/tclUnixFile.c (TclpMatchInDirectory): Argument to access()

+
+2001-10-25 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
+
+ * unix/tclUnixChan.c: Added stateUpdated member to struct TtyState.
+ (TtyCloseProc,TtySetOptionProc,TtyInit): Use stateUpdated member
+ of TtyState to decide whether it is necessary to reset a serial
+ port when Tcl closes it. Blindly resetting can cause Tcl to be
+ sent an unexpected SIGTSTP when it is executing in the background
+ [Bug 471374, reported by Chris Nelson]

+ <kevin@kosmanor.com>.
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_ReadRaw): Do not read from the driver if
+ the channel is non-blocking and the fileevent causing the read
+ was generated by a timer. We do not know if there is data
+ available from the OS. Instead of going to the OS for more and
+ potentially blocking we simply signal EWOULDBLOCK to the higher
+ levels to cause the system to wait for true fileevents.
+ (GetInput): Same as before.
+ (ChannelTimerProc): Added set and clear of CHANNEL_TIMER_FEV.
+
+ * generic/tclIO.h (CHANNEL_TIMER_FEV): New flag for channels. Is
+ set if a fileevent was generated by a timer, the channel is not
+ blocking and the driver did not provide a blockmodeproc. In that
+ case the I/O core has to be especially careful about going to
+ the driver for more data.

+
+ * All the changes below serve to fix bug [219148] which reports a
+ 80x performance hit for file I/O on Win* systems. On my system
+ it was closer to a 120x hit. Problem report by Uwe Traum <no
+ email address available>.
+
+ The fix goes like this: The obstacle is 'FlushFileBuffers',
+ executed whenever Tcl writes data to the OS, as Tcl has to wait
+ for the disk to complete I/O, and disks are slow. We remove that
+ obstacle. This opens another problem, [file size] reports back
+ wrong numbers. So for [file size] we add the call back in. As
+ optimization we keep track of the channels which were written to
+ and flush only these.
+
+ * win/tclWinFile.c (TclpObjStat): Added a call to
+ 'TclWinFlushDirtyChannels'. This ensures that [file size] and
+ related commands report the correct size of a file even if Tcl
+ has recently written to it. Unixoid OS's always report the
+ correct size even for files with pending data, but Win*
+ syssystem don't. They only report what is actually on disk.
+
+ * win/tclWinInt.h: Added declaration of
+ 'TclWinFlushDirtyChannels', making it available to other parts
+ of the tcl core.
+
+ * win/tclWinChan.c (TclWinFlushDirtyChannels): New, internal,
+ procedure. Goes through the list of open file channels and
+ forces the OS to flush its file buffers for all which were
+ written to since the last call of this function. This is an
+ expensive operation as Tcl has to wait for the OS to complete
+ actual writes to the disk.
+
+ (FileInfo): Added dirty flag required by the procedure above.
+
+ (FileOutputProc): Removed flushing of file buffers, setting the
+ dirty flag instead. This means that the previously incurred
+ delays do not happen anymore.
+
+ (TclWinOpenFileChannel): Added initialization of 'dirty' flag.

+
+ * generic/tcl.h:
+ * generic/tclPlatDecls.h: Borland compatibility change so

+
+ will have to be this with Borland:

+ * various platform-specific 'TclpLoadFile': fixed comments about
+ unload behaviour, and completed objectification of loading.
+ Required change to Tcl_Filesystem lookup table, so incompatible
+ with 8.4a3, but not older versions of Tcl. The change also
+ allows 'link' and 'reporting' filesystems to function correctly
+ when loading files. Implementation of 'file delete -force'
+ copes with case where cwd is inside the directory. Moved
+ overlooked Tcl_FSGetPathType from internal to external API.
+ Made sure filesystems which are registered and then unregistered
+ are only freed when all references to them are gone.
+ Documented changes.
+ * unix/tclUnixFCmd.c: when deleting directories recursively,
+ make sure permissions are ok. Together with the above, this
+ fixes [Bug: 219139]
+ * tests/winFCmd.test: differentiated test results for win2k
+ versus not. This fixes [Bug: 219239]
+ * tests/fCmd.test: added tests for 'file delete -force' where
+ the cwd is inside, and when permissions are inadequate.

+
+ Further fs updates. After examining the most common Tcl
+ extensions (TclX, BLT, Tk, TclPro, Mktclapp), it has been
+ determined that only TclpGetCwd and the Access/Stat/Open
+ insert/delete hooks of the internal fs functions are ever used.
+ The remaining functions from Tcl's internal interfaces have
+ therefore been removed, since Tcl now exports a more suitable
+ public API (Tcl_FS...)
+
+ * generic/tclInt.stubs:
+ * generic/tclInt.h: updated for removed internal functions.
+ Some new internal functions have been put in tclInt.h (and
+ not exported in the stub table because good public equivalents
+ exist).
+ * generic/tclTest.c: some test functions used the internal private
+ APIs. These tests have been retained, but modified to use
+ public APIs. Also objectified the internal filesystem tests.
+ * win/tclWinFile.c: removed TclpStat, TclpAccess and refactored
+ code to use NativeAccess, NativeStat. This should speed up
+ stat, access and glob commands.
+ * win/tclWinFCmd.c: removed all TclpCopy/Rename/Delete
+ File/Directory string-based procedures which aren't used any more.
+ Improved efficiency of some other procedures. Ensure that filename
+ conversions with a NULL interp do not crash Tcl.
+ * mac/tclMacFCmd.c: wrapped long lines and cleaned up
+ TclpObjNormalizePath, removed all TclpCopy/Rename/Delete
+ File/Directory string-based procedures which aren't used any more.
+ * mac/tclMacFile.c: removed obsolete TclpStat, TclpAccess, TclpChdir,

+ * various 'load' implementations all objectified.
+ * generic/tclFileName.c: removed redundant code.
+ * generic/tclIOUtil.c: removed TclStat, TclAccess, TclpListVolumes.
+ Fix to MatchInDirectory at the root of a volume. Also improved
+ some documentation, and improved default path joining behaviour
+ for virtual filesystems, especially regarding '~'.
+ * tests/fileName.test: added tests to check for bugs fixed above.

+
+ Variety of small filesystem and vfs issues fixed or improved.
+ The new fs code allows many new opportunities for efficiency
+ improvements through the objectified API. The main changes
+ integrated here are such efficiency improvements. Some
+ limitations of the original implementation have also now been
+ lifted. Meanwhile a variety of fs bugs (some old, some new)
+ have also been fixed.
+
+ * generic/tclFileName.c: Made Tcl_FSSplitPath more efficient,
+ and removed some static string-based procedures which are no
+ longer used. Much more objectification. Tcl_FSJoinPath
+ is now very efficient and more aware of virtual filesystems.
+ Clarified where the Mac-specific code attempts to interpret
+ Unix-style paths. Modified TclDoGlob to use lstat not
+ access to fix [Bug: 434876, L. Virden]
+ * tcl(Win|Unix|Mac)FCmd.c:
+ * tcl(Win|Unix|Mac)File.c: replaced TclpListVolumes with
+ TclpObjListVolumes with different signature, updated code due
+ to more efficient signature of Tcl_FSGetTranslatedPath. Used
+ cached native paths where possible to improve efficiency --
+ this was completed on MacOS, but on Unix and Win the traversal
+ functions make the task much more complex, so there are still
+ some improvements possible there. Removed unused
+ TclpNormalizePath which had been left in tclWinFCmd.c.
+ Objectified all 'file attributes' functions. Fixed the new
+ [Bug:451571, Bruce Stephens] which is most obvious on Unix,
+ but could occur on MacOS or Windows. This bug actually existed
+ in Tcl 8.3.x but was only made obvious by the recent filesystem
+ overhaul when the code was exercised more heavily.
+ * tests/fileName.test: Three new tests to exercise the above bug,
+ and make sure it is fixed correctly.
+ * unix/tclUnixFile.c: avoid panic in glob when a link
+ doesn't point anywhere. It would probably be good to define
+ exactly what Tcl should do in circumstances like these, and
+ make sure mac/win/unix all behave accordingly. [Bug: 417111,
+ Hemang Lavana]. Also fixed misleading/obsolete comment in the code.
+ * generic/tcl.stubs: changed signature of Tcl_FSGetTranslatedPath
+ and added Tcl_FSGetTranslatedStringPath.
+ These changes allow further optimisations in the FS code.
+ * generic/tcl.h: changed signature of Tcl_FSListVolumes so that
+ it doesn't require a Tcl interpreter plus result. Renamed
+ Tcl_FSReadLink to Tcl_FSLink with additional argument so
+ we can support making links in the future. [Patch: 450340]
+ * generic/tclInt.h:
+ added declaration for TclpObjListVolumes. Objectified
+ internal call signatures for 'file attributes' functions, and
+ added an internal objectified get path type function.
+ * generic/tclIOUtil.c: added the moved function TclpListVolumes
+ which calls platform specific code (needed for backwards
+ compatibility), and improved efficiency of parts of the FS
+ (particularly file normalization). Much less copying and
+ memory allocation is required now. added new GetPathType
+ so that changes in 'file volumes' can actually affect files'
+ types, and objectified more code. Made current code work
+ with test suite artificially changing current platform.
+ Added 'static' keywords where required.
+ * generic/tclIO.c:
+ * generic/tclTest.c: Added 'static' keywords, fixing
+ [Bug: 453872, Bob Techentin]
+ * generic/tclCmdAH.c: file command implementation updated for
+ API changes, removed unnecessary special-case SplitPath static
+ function, since it no longer helps prevent code duplication.
+ Moved setting of interpreter result to each individual location
+ that actually required it, to avoid very large code separation
+ between reading and setting the result.
+ * doc/FileSystem.3: updated documentation for the new or
+ changed APIs, and clarified some issues.
+ * doc/SplitPath.3: added pointer to newer APIs in FileSystem.3
+ * doc/filename.n: clarified current implementation of tilde
+ support on Mac/Win. [Bug:453514, Sergey Kuzmin]
+ * doc/glob.n: improved documentation for '-directory' and '-path'
+ options.
+
+ There are now many private, obsolete, platform-specific 'Tclp'
+ string-based filesystem APIs which could be removed. We should
+ check whether any of these are used by extensions and, at least
+ in Tcl 9, remove them.
+
+ The above changes signify a ***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
+ with 8.4a3, since signatures of two functions in the new API
+ have changed, but not with older versions of Tcl.

+
+ * generic/tclBinary.c (FormatNumber): Extract a long from the

+ * generic/tclPlatDecls.h: Define TCHAR by including

+ * generic/tclIO.c: Aftermath to [SF #427196]. Squash empty buffers

+ buffersize made by the user.
+
+2001-07-17 Mo DeJong <mdejong@redhat.com>
+
+ * win/tclWinFile.c (TclpReadlink): Add Cygwin specific definition

+2001-07-17 Andreas Kupries <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c (GetInput): Fixed [SF #427196]. Memory was
+ overwritten because a buffer was used after a change of the
+ requested buffersize together with that requested buffersize and
+ not its actual size, which was smaller. Note that the continous
+ reuse of the smaller buffer negatively impacts performance. The
+ system never allocates a buffer with the newly requested bigger
+ buffersize.

+ * win/configure: Regen.
+ * win/configure.in: Subst DEPARG.
+ * win/tcl.m4 (SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS): Move AC_MSG_CHECKING

+ results of the cygpath check so that we avoid using
+ an extra exec when it is not needed. Use ac_cv_cygwin

+ as well (when possible).
+ * generic/tclCompile.c: added new instruction enums
+ * generic/tclCompile.h: added debug info for new instructions
+ * generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): moved elemPtr to
+ toplevel var (oft-used). Added definitions for new bytecode
+ instructions INST_LIST_INDEX, INST_LIST_LENGTH, INST_APPEND_SCALAR1,
+ INST_APPEND_SCALAR4, INST_APPEND_ARRAY1, INST_APPEND_ARRAY4,

+ INST_LAPPEND_SCALAR4, INST_LAPPEND_ARRAY1, INST_LAPPEND_ARRAY4,

+ Refactored repititious code for reuse with INST_LOAD_STK (same as
+ INST_LOAD_SCALAR_STK), INST_STORE_STK (same as
+ INST_STORE_SCALAR_STK).
+ Updated INST_STR_CMP with style of fix of 2001-04-06 Fellows
+ [Bug #219201] as that fix only affected the runtime eval'ed
+ "string" (string compare is normally byte-compiled now). We
+ may want to back these out for speed in the future, noting the
+ problems with \x00 comparisons in the docs.
+ * generic/tclInt.h: declarations for new compile commands.
+ * generic/tclVar.c: change TclGetIndexedScalar,

+ install directory for the msgcat 1.2 package.

+
+ * generic/tclIO.c (CopyData): Moved code that updates the count
+ of how many bytes are left to copy. Corrects bug that when
+ writing occurs in the background, the copy loop could be
+ escaped without updating the count, causing CopyData() to try
+ to copy more bytes than the toRead value originally passed to
+ TclCopyChannel(), leading to hangs and misreporting of number
+ of bytes copied. [Bug 118203, Patch 103432]

+
+ * Everything below belongs together, it fixes bug #123153.
+
+ * generic/tcl.h (line 342): A bit more explanation about the
+ default value for TCL_PRESERVE_BINARY_COMPATABILITY.
+
+ * generic/tcl.h (line 1208): Define the macro 'Tcl_InitHashTable'
+ only when TCL_PRESERVE_BINARY_COMPATIBILITY is not set
+ as it kills binary compatibility to 8.3 and earlier
+ versions. This is the main part of the patch/change.
+
+ * generic/tcl.decls (line 1469):
+ * generic/tclHash.c (Tcl_InitHashTable):
+ * generic/tclHash.c (Tcl_InitHashTableEx):
+ * generic/tclObj.c (Tcl_InitObjHashTable): Changed
+ 'Tcl_InitHashTableEx' to 'Tcl_InitCustomHashTable'. This change
+ is more of an estethical nature, replacing the ubiquitous 'Ex'
+ suffix with a more meaningful name. The introduced binary
+ incompatibility is deemed acceptable as it is between alpha
+ versions. Updated callers.
+
+ * doc/Hash.3:
+ * unix/mkLinks: Changed 'Tcl_InitHashTableEx' to
+ 'Tcl_InitCustomHashTable'.

+
+ * tests/winPipe.test (winpipe-1.20):
+ * tests/winDde.test (createChildProcess):
+ * tests/pkgMkIndex.test (pkgtest::createIndex): Removed
+ assumption that paths contain no spaces which causes problems with
+ both [eval] and [open |...] due to the well-known differences
+ between lists and strings. Fixes bug #119406
+
+2001-01-04 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * tests/unixInit.test:
+ * unix/tclUnixInit.c (TclpInitLibraryPath):
+ * win/tclWinInit.c (TclpInitLibraryPath): Several entries in
+ the library path ($tcl_libPath) are determined relative to the
+ absolute path of the executable. When the executable is
+ installed in or near the root directory of the file system,
+ relative pathnames were being incorrectly generated, and in
+ the worst case, memory access violations were crashing the program.
