+A NOTE ON THE CHANGELOG:
+Starting in early 2011, Tcl source code has been under the management of
+fossil, hosted at http://core.tcl.tk/tcl/ . Fossil presents a "Timeline"
+view of changes made that is superior in every way to a hand edited log file.
+Because of this, many Tcl developers are now out of the habit of maintaining
+this log file. You may still find useful things in it, but the Timeline is
+a better first place to look now.
+============================================================================
- * generic/tclCompile.h: add support for debug logging of DTrace
- * generic/tclBasic.c: 'proc', 'cmd' and 'inst' probes (does
- _not_ require a platform with DTrace).
+2013-09-19 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
- * generic/tclCmdIL.c (TclInfoFrame): check fPtr->line before
- dereferencing as line info may
- not exists when TclInfoFrame()
- is called from a DTrace probe.
+ *** 8.6.1 TAGGED FOR RELEASE ***
- * tests/msgcat.test: fix for ::tcl::mac::locale with
- @modifier (HEAD backport 2008-06-01).
+ * generic/tcl.h: Bump version number to 8.6.1.
+ * library/init.tcl:
+ * unix/configure.in:
+ * win/configure.in:
+ * unix/tcl.spec:
+ * README:
- * tests/fCmd.test (fCmd-6.23): made result matching robust when test
- workdir and /tmp are not on same FS.
+ * unix/configure: autoconf-2.59
+ * win/configure:
- * unix/Makefile.in: ensure Makefile shell is /bin/bash for
- * unix/configure.in (SunOS): DTrace-enabled build on Solaris.
- (followup to 2008-06-12) [Bug 2016584]
+2013-09-19 Donal Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
- * unix/tcl.m4 (SC_PATH_X): check for libX11.dylib in addition to
- libX11.so et al.
+ * doc/next.n (METHOD SEARCH ORDER): Bug [3606943]: Corrected
+ description of method search order.
- * unix/configure: autoconf-2.59
+2013-09-18 Donal Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
-2008-08-13 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+ Bump TclOO version to 1.0.1 for release.
- * generic/tclFileName.c: Fix for errors handling -types {}
- * tests/fileName.test: option to [glob]. [Bug 1750300]
- Thanks to Matthias Kraft and George Peter Staplin.
+2013-09-17 Donal Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
-2008-08-12 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+ * generic/tclBinary.c (BinaryEncodeUu, BinaryDecodeUu): [Bug 2152292]:
+ Corrected implementation of the core of uuencode handling so that the
+ line length processing is correctly applied.
+ ***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
+ Existing code that was using the old versions and working around the
+ limitations will now need to do far less. The -maxlen option now has
+ strict limits on the range of supported lengths; this is a limitation
+ of the format itself.
- *** 8.5.4 TAGGED FOR RELEASE ***
+2013-09-09 Donal Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
- * changes: Update for 8.5.4 release.
+ * generic/tclOOMethod.c (CloneProcedureMethod): [Bug 3609693]: Strip
+ the internal representation of method bodies during cloning in order
+ to ensure that any bound references to instance variables are removed.
-2008-08-11 Pat Thoyts <patthoyts@users.sourceforge.net>
+2013-09-01 Donal Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
- * library/http/http.tcl: Remove 8.5 requirement.
- * library/http/pkgIndex.tcl:
- * unix/Makefile.in:
- * win/Makefile.in:
- * win/makefile.vc:
+ * generic/tclBinary.c (BinaryDecodeHex): [Bug b98fa55285]: Ensure that
+ whitespace at the end of a string don't cause the decoder to drop the
+ last decoded byte.
-2008-08-11 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
+2013-08-03 Donal Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
- * library/tm.tcl: Added a 'package provide' command to the
- generated ifneeded scripts of Tcl Modules, for early detection of
- conflicts between the version specified through the file name and
- a 'provide' command in the module implementation, if any. Note
- that this change also now allows Tcl Modules to not provide a
- 'provide' command at all, and declaring their version only through
- their filename.
+ * library/auto.tcl: [Patch 3611643]: Allow TclOO classes to be found
+ by the autoloading mechanism.
- * generic/tclProc.c (Tcl_ProcObjCmd): Fixed memory leak triggered
- * tests/proc.test: by procbody::test::proc. See [Bug 2043636].
- Added a test case demonstrating the leak before the fix. Fixed a
- few spelling errors in test descriptions as well.
+2013-08-02 Donal Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
-2008-08-11 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+ * generic/tclOODefineCmds.c (ClassSuperSet): Bug [9d61624b3d]: Stop

- Modules pointed out by Don Porter. By using plain 'source' we were at
- the mercy of 'encoding system', making modules less portable than they
- could be. The exact scenario: A writes a TM in some weird encoding
- which is A's system encoding, distributes it, and somewhere else it
- cannot be read/used because the system encoding is different. Forcing
- the use of utf-8 makes the module portable.

+ target object name optional when copying classes. [RFE 3485060]: Add
+ callback method ("<cloned>") so that scripted control over copying is
+ easier.
+ ***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
+ If you'd previously been using the "<cloned>" method name, this now

- * generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_CreateInterp): Simplify the setting up of

+ * generic/tclOOCall.c, generic/tclOODefineCmds.c, generic/tclOOInt.h:
+ * tests/oo.test: Switch definitions of lists of things in objects and
+ classes to a slot-based approach, which gives a lot more flexibility
+ and programmability at the script-level. Introduce new [::oo::Slot]
+ class which is the implementation of these things.
- * generic/tclNamesp.c (TclMakeEnsemble): Added missing release of a
- DString. [Bug 1845397]
+ ***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
+ The unknown method handler now may be asked to deal with the case
+ where no method name is provided at all. The default implementation
+ generates a compatible error message, and any override that forces the
+ presence of a first argument (i.e., a method name) will continue to
+ function as at present as well, so this is a pretty small change.
+
+ * generic/tclOOBasic.c (TclOO_Object_Destroy): Made it easier to do a
+ tailcall inside a normally-invoked destructor; prevented leakage out
+ to calling command.

- *** POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY *** (tclInt.h and tclCompile.h)
- Extensions that access internals defined in tclInt.h and/or
- tclCompile.h may lose both binary and source compatibility. The
- relevant changes are:
- 1. 'struct Var' is completely changed, all acceses to its internals
- (either direct or via the TclSetVar* and TclIsVar* macros) will
- malfunction. Var flag values and semantics changed too.
- 2. 'struct Bytecode' has an additional field that has to be
- initialised to NULL
- 3. 'struct Namespace' is larger, as the varTable is now one pointer
- larger than a Tcl_HashTable. Direct access to its fields will
- malfunction.
- 4. 'struct CallFrame' grew one more field (the second such growth with
- respect to Tcl8.4).
- 5. API change for the functions TclFindCompiledLocal, TclDeleteVars
- and many internal functions in tclVar.c
+2011-03-04 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
- Additionally, direct access to variable hash tables via the standard
- Tcl_Hash* interface is to be considered as deprecated. It still works
- in the present version, but will be broken by further specialisation
- of these hash tables. This concerns especially the table of array
- elements in an array, as well as the varTable field in the Namespace
- struct.

- * generic/tclBasic.c, generic/tclNamesp.c, generic/tclProc.c:
- * generic/tclInt.h: Removed the callObjc and callObjv fields from the
- Interp structure. They did not function correctly and made other parts
- of the core amazingly complex, resulting in a substantive change to
- [info level] behaviour. [Bug 1587618]
- * library/clock.tcl: Removed use of [info level 0] for calculating the
- command name as used by the user and replace with a literal. What's
- there now is sucky, but at least appears to be right to most users.
- * tests/namespace.test (namespace-42.7,namespace-47.1): Reverted
- changes to these tests.
- * tests/info.test (info-9.11,info-9.12): Added knownBug constraint
- since these tests require a different behaviour of [info level] than
- is possible because of other dependencies.
+ * generic/tclExecute.c: Fix panic in http11.test caused by buggy
+ earlier commits in coroutine management.

+ comments to describe when the function can be entered for the same
+ Tcl_Obj* multiple times. This is a continuation of the 2009-11-10

- extensions. TOIPC is now in the internal stub table.
- (MakeProcError, MakeLambdaError): Refactored ProcessProcResultCode to

+2009-11-05 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
+
+ * library/safe.tcl: A series of patches which bring the SafeBase up to
+ date with code guidelines, Tcl's features, also eliminating a number
+ of inefficiencies along the way.
+ (1) Changed all procedure names to be fully qualified.
+ (2) Moved the procedures out of the namespace eval. Kept their
+ locations. IOW, broke the namespace eval apart into small sections not
+ covering the procedure definitions.
+ (3) Reindented the code. Just lots of whitespace changes.
+ Functionality unchanged.
+ (4) Moved the multiple namespace eval's around. Command export at the
+ top, everything else (var decls, argument parsing setup) at the
+ bottom.
+ (5) Moved the argument parsing setup into a procedure called when the
+ code is loaded. Easier management of temporary data.
+ (6) Replaced several uses of 'Set' with calls to the new procedure
+ 'InterpState' and direct access to the per-slave state array.
+ (7) Replaced the remaining uses of 'Set' and others outside of the
+ path/token handling, and deleted a number of procedures related to
+ state array access which are not used any longer.
+ (8) Converted the path token system to cache normalized paths and path
+ <-> token conversions. Removed more procedures not used any longer.
+ Removed the test cases 4.3 and 4.4 from safe.test. They were testing
+ the now deleted command "InterpStateName".
+ (9) Changed the log command setup so that logging is compiled out
+ completely when disabled (default).
+ (10) Misc. cleanup. Inlined IsInterp into CheckInterp, its only user.
+ Consistent 'return -code error' for error reporting. Updated to use
+ modern features (lassign, in/ni, dicts). The latter are used to keep a
+ reverse path -> token map and quicker check of existence.
+ (11) Fixed [Bug 2854929]: Recurse into all subdirs under all TM root
+ dirs and put them on the access path.

+
+ * doc/Cancel.3: Minor cosmetic fixes.
+ * win/makefile.vc: Make htmlhelp target work again. An extra set of
+ double quotes around the definition of the HTML help compiler tool
+ appears to be required. Previously, there was one set of double
+ quotes around the definition of the tool and one around the actual
+ invocation. This led to confusion because it was the only such tool
+ path to include double quotes around its invocation. Also, it was
+ somewhat inflexible in the event that somebody needed to override the
+ tool command to include arguments. Therefore, even though it may look
+ "wrong", there are now two double quotes on either side of the tool
+ path definition. This fixes the problem that currently prevents the
+ htmlhelp target from building and maintains flexibility in case
+ somebody needs to override it via the command line or an environment
+ variable.

-2006-10-01 Pat Thoyts <patthoyts@users.sourceforge.net>
+ * generic/tcl.h: Changed the typedef for the mp_digit type
+ from:
+ typedef unsigned long mp_digit;
+ to:
+ typedef unsigned int mp_digit;
+ For 32-bit builds where "long" and "int" are two names for the same
+ thing, this is no change at all. For 64-bit builds, though, this
+ causes the dp[] array of an mp_int to be made up of 32-bit elements
+ instead of 64-bit elements. This is a huge improvement because
+ details elsewhere in the mp_int implementation cause only 28 bits of
+ each element to be actually used storing number data. Without this
+ change bignums are over 50% wasted space on 64-bit systems. [Bug
+ 2800740].
- * win/tclWinFile.c: Handle possible missing define.
+ ***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
+ For 64-bit builds, callers of routines with (mp_digit) or (mp_digit *)
+ arguments *will*, and callers of routines with (mp_int *) arguments
+ *may* suffer both binary and stubs incompatibilities with Tcl releases
+ 8.5.0 - 8.5.7. Such possibilities should be checked, and if such
+ incompatibilities are present, suitable [package require] requirements
+ on the Tcl release should be put in place to keep such built code
+ [load]-ing only in Tcl interps that are compatible.

+ * generic/tclLiteral.c: [Bug 2888044]: Fixed 2 bugs.
+ * tests/info.test: First, as noted in the comments of the
+ TclCleanupLiteralTable routine, since the teardown of the intrep of
+ one Tcl_Obj can cause the teardown of others in the same table, the
+ full table cleanup must be done with care, but the code did not
+ contain the same care demanded in the comment. Second, recent
+ additions to the info.test file had poor hygiene, leaving an array
+ variable ::a lying around, which breaks later interp.test tests during
+ a -singleproc 1 run of the test suite.
- * generic/tclPkg.c (CompareVersions): Bugfix. Check string lengths
- * tests/pkg.test: before comparison. The shorter string is the smaller
- number. Added testcases as well. Interestingly all existing test cases

+ its own arguments when run in a bytecode context to keep a proper
+ stack in 'lineLABCPtr'.

- * generic/tclParseExpr.c: Completely new expression parser that
- builds a parse tree instead of operating with deep recursion. This
- corrects reports of stack-blowing crashes parsing long expressions
- [Bug 906201] and replaces a fundamentally O(N^2) algorithm with an
- O(N) one [RFE 903765]. The new parser is better able to generate error
- messages that clearly report both the nature and context of the syntax
- error [Bugs 1029267, 1381715]. For now, the code for the old parser is
- still present and can be activated with a "#define OLD_EXPR_PARSER
- 1". This is for the sake of a clean implementation patch, and for ease
- of benchmarking. The new parser is non-recursive, so much lighter in
- stack consumption, but it does use more heap, so there may be cases

- Breaking whitespace runs at newlines is useful only to the command
- parsing function, and it can call the file scoped routine
- ParseWhiteSpace() to do that.

- * macosx/tclMacOSXNotify.c: implemented pthread_atfork() handler that
- * unix/tcl.m4 (Darwin): recreates CoreFoundation state and
- notifier thread in the child after a fork(). Note that pthread_atfork
- is available starting with Tiger only. Because vfork() is used by the
- core on Darwin, [exec]/[open] are not affected by this fix, only
- extensions or embedders that call fork() directly (such as TclX).
- However, this only makes fork() safe from corefoundation tcl with
- --disable-threads; as on all platforms, forked children may deadlock
- in threaded tcl due to the potential for stale locked mutexes in the

+ enough for the right TclInitCompileEnv() call to re-stash it into
+ envPtr->procPtr. Once that is done, the CompileEnv controls. If we
+ let the value of iPtr->compiledProcPtr linger, though, then any other
+ bytecode compile operation that takes place will also have its
+ CompileEnv initialized with it, and that's not correct. The value is
+ meant to control the compile of the proc body only, not other compile
+ tasks that happen along. Thanks to Carlos Tasada for discovering and

+ * generic/tclStringObj.c: Rewrites of the routines
+ Tcl_GetCharLength, Tcl_GetUniChar, Tcl_GetUnicodeFromObj,
+ Tcl_GetRange, and TclStringObjReverse to use the new macro, and
+ to more simply and clearly split the cases depending on whether
+ a valid unicode rep is present or needs to be created.
+ New utility routine UnicodeLength(), to compute the length of unicode
+ buffer arguments when no length is passed in, with built-in
+ overflow protection included. Update three callers to use it.
+
+ * generic/tclInt.h: New macro TclNumUtfChars meant to be a faster
+ replacement for a full Tcl_NumUtfChars() call when the string has all
+ single-byte characters.
+
+ * generic/tclStringObj.c: Simplified Tcl_GetCharLength by
+ * generic/tclTestObj.c: removing code that did nothing.
+ Added early returns from Tcl_*SetObjLength when the desired length
+ is already present; adapted test command to the change.
+
+ * generic/tclStringObj.c: Re-implemented AppendUtfToUnicodeRep
+ so that we no longer pass through Tcl_DStrings which have their own
+ sets of problems when lengths overflow the int range. Now AUTUR and
+ FillUnicodeRep share a common core routine.
+
+2009-02-12 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclOODefineCmds.c (TclOOGetDefineCmdContext): Use the
+ correct field in the Interp structure for retrieving the frame to get
+ the context object so that people can extend [oo::define] without deep
+ shenanigans. Bug found by Federico Ferri.

-2006-01-26 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>
+ * generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_DeleteCommandFromToken): One consequence of
+ the NRE rewrite is that there are now situations where a NULL objProc
+ field in a Command struct is perfectly normal. Removed an outdated
+ comment in Tcl_DeleteCommandFromToken that claimed we use
+ cmdPtr->objPtr==NULL as a test of command validity. In fact we use
+ cmdPtr->flags&CMD_IS_DELETED to perform that test. Also removed the
+ setting to NULL, since any extension following the advice of the old
+ comment is going to be broken by NRE anyway, and needs to shift to
+ flag-based testing (or stop intruding into such internal matters).
+ Part of [Bug 2486550].
- * unix/tclUnixChan.c (TclpOpenFileChannel): Tidy up and comment the
- mess to do with setting up serial channels. This (deliberately) breaks
- a broken FreeBSD port, indicates what we're really doing, and reduces
- the amount of conditional compilation sections for better maintenance.

+
+ * generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileDictAppendCmd): Fix bug in [dict
+ append] compiler which caused strange stack corruption. [Bug 1837392]
+
+2007-11-23 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
+
+ * generic/tclIORChan.c: Fixed a problem with reflected channels. 'chan
+ postevent' is defined to work only from within the interpreter
+ containing the handler command. Sensible, we want only handler
+ commands to use it. It identifies the channel by handle. The channel
+ moves to a different interpreter or thread. The interpreter containing
+ the handler command doesn't know the channel any longer. 'chan
+ postevent' fails, not finding the channel any longer. Uhm.
+
+ Fixed by creating a second per-interpreter channel table, just for
+ reflected channels, where each interpreter remembers for which
+ reflected channels it has the handler command. This info does not move
+ with the channel itself. The table is updated by 'chan create', and
+ used by 'chan postevent'.
+
+ * tests/ioCmd.test: Updated the testsuite.

+
+2007-11-22 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclDictObj.c (Dict*Cmd,TclInitDictCmd): Rebuilt the [dict]

+
+2007-11-21 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileEnsemble): Rewrote the ensemble
+ compiler to remove many of the limitations. Can now compile scripts
+ that use unique prefixes of subcommands, and which have mappings of a

+ mainly on assorted lookup failures.
+
+2007-11-20 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclDictObj.c: Changed the underlying implementation of the
+ hash table used in dictionaries to additionally keep all entries in
+ the hash table in a linked list, which is only ever added to at the
+ end. This makes iteration over all entries in the dictionary in
+ key insertion order a trivial operation, and so cleans up a great deal
+ of complexity relating to dictionary representation and stability of
+ iteration order.
+
+ ***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
+ For any code that depended on the (strange) old iteration order.

+
+2007-11-15 Pat Thoyts <patthoyts@users.sourceforge.net>

+
+ * generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileInfoCmd): Simple compiler for the

+
+2007-11-14 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>

+
+2007-11-14 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>

+
+2007-11-13 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com>

+
+2007-11-13 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileSwitchCmd, TclCompileRegexpCmd):
+ Extend [switch] compiler to handle regular expressions as long as

+
+ * doc/mathop.n: Clarify definitions of some operations.
+
+2007-11-13 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+ * unix/tclUnixInit.c: the TCL_NO_STACK_CHECK was being incorrectly

+
+2007-11-13 Pat Thoyts <patthoyts@users.sourceforge.net>

+2007-11-13 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
+
+ * unix/tclUnixChan.c (CreateSocketAddress): Rewrote to use the

+ 1618235].
+
+2007-11-12 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
+
+ * generic/tclGet.c (Tcl_Get, Tcl_GetInt): revert use of TclGet* macros

+
+2007-11-12 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclBasic.c: New macro TclResetResult, new iPtr

+
+2007-11-10 Kevin Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
+
+ * win/tclWin32Dll.c: Rewrote the Windows stack checking algorithm to
+ use information from VirtualQuery to determine the bound of the stack.
+ This change fixes a bug where the guard page of the stack was never
+ restored after an overflow. It also eliminates a nasty piece of
+ assembly code for structured exception handling on mingw. It
+ introduces an assumption that the stack is a single memory arena
+ returned from VirtualAlloc, but the code in MSVCRT makes the same
+ assumption, so it should be fairly safe.

+2007-09-06 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclInterp.c (Tcl_Init): Removed constraint on ability

+ custom command had to be a proc. Now it can be any command.
+
+ * generic/tclInt.decls: New internal routine TclBackgroundException()
+ * generic/tclEvent.c: that for the first time permits non-TCL_ERROR
+ exceptions to trigger [interp bgerror] handling. Closes a gap in TIP

+2007-08-19 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c: changed the check for overflow in sums,
+ reducing objsize, number of branches and cache misses (according to
+ cachegrind). Non-overflow for s=a+b:
+ previous
+ ((a >= 0 || b >= 0 || s < 0) && (s >= 0 || b < 0 || a < 0))
+ now
+ (((a^s) >= 0) || ((a^b) < 0))
+ This expresses: "a and s have the same sign or else a and b have
+ different sign".
+
+2007-08-19 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ * doc/interp.n (RESOURCE LIMITS): Added text to better explain why
+ time limits are described using absolute times. [Bug 1752148]
+
+2007-08-16 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclVar.c: improved localVarNameType caching to leverage
+ the new availability of Tcl_Obj in variable names, avoiding string
+ comparisons to verify that the cached value is usable.
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c: check the two most frequent instructions
+ before the switch. Reduces both runtime and obj size a tiny bit.
+
+2007-08-16 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclCompExpr.c: Added a "constant" field to the OpNode
+ struct (again "free" due to alignment requirements) to mark those
+ subexpressions that are completely known at compile time. Enhanced
+ CompileExprTree() and its callers to precompute these constant
+ subexpressions at compile time. This resolves the issue raised in [Bug
+ 1564517].
+
+2007-08-15 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
+
+ * generic/tclIOUtil.c (TclGetOpenModeEx): Only set the O_APPEND flag
+ * tests/ioUtil.test (ioUtil-4.1): on a channel for the 'a'
+ mode and not for 'a+'. [Bug 1773127]
+
+2007-08-14 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c (INST_INVOKE*): peephole opt, do not get the
+ interp's result if it will be pushed/popped.
+
+2007-08-14 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclBasic.c: Use fully qualified variable names for
+ * tests/thread.test: ::errorInfo and ::errorCode so that string
+ * tests/trace.test: reported to variable traces are fully
+ qualified in agreement with Tcl 8.4 operations.
+
+2007-08-14 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net>

+ leak.
+
+2007-08-10 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclCompExpr.c: Revise CompileExprTree() to use the
+ OpNode mark field scheme of tree traversal. This eliminates the need
+ to use magic values in the left and right fields for that purpose.
+ Also stop abusing the left field within ParseExpr() to store the
+ number of arguments in a parsed function call. CompileExprTree() now
+ determines that for itself at compile time. Then reorder code to
+ eliminate duplication.
+
+2007-08-09 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclProc.c (TclCreateProc): better comments on the required
+ varflag values when loading precompiled procs.
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c (INST_STORE_ARRAY):
+ * tests/trace.test (trace-2.6): whole array write traces on compiled
+ local variables were not firing. [Bug 1770591]
+
+2007-08-08 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com>

+
+2007-08-07 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclInt.h: remove comments refering to VAR_SCALAR, as that
+ flag bit does not exist any longer.
+ * generic/tclProc.c (InitCompiledLocals): removed optimisation for
+ non-resolved case, as the function is never called in that case.
+ Renamed the function to InitResolvedLocals to calrify the point.

+
+ * unix/Makefile.in: add support for compile flags specific to
+ object files linked directly into executables.
+
+ * unix/configure.in (Darwin): only use -seg1addr flag when prebinding;
+ use -mdynamic-no-pic flag for object files linked directly into exes;
+ support overriding TCL_PACKAGE_PATH/TCL_MODULE_PATH in environment.
+
+ * unix/configure: autoconf-2.59
+
+2007-08-06 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * tests/parseExpr.test: Update source file name of expr parser code.
+
+ * generic/tclCompExpr.c: Added a "mark" field to the OpNode
+ struct, which is used to guide tree traversal. This field costs
+ nothing since alignement requirements used the memory already.
+ Rewrote ConvertTreeToTokens() to use the new field, which permitted
+ consolidation of utility routines CopyTokens() and
+ GenerateTokensForLiteral().

+
+ *** POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY *** (tclInt.h and tclCompile.h)
+ Extensions that access internals defined in tclInt.h and/or
+ tclCompile.h may lose both binary and source compatibility. The
+ relevant changes are:
+ 1. 'struct Var' is completely changed, all acceses to its internals
+ (either direct or via the TclSetVar* and TclIsVar* macros) will
+ malfunction. Var flag values and semantics changed too.
+ 2. 'struct Bytecode' has an additional field that has to be
+ initialised to NULL
+ 3. 'struct Namespace' is larger, as the varTable is now one pointer
+ larger than a Tcl_HashTable. Direct access to its fields will
+ malfunction.
+ 4. 'struct CallFrame' grew one more field (the second such growth with
+ respect to Tcl8.4).
+ 5. API change for the functions TclFindCompiledLocal, TclDeleteVars
+ and many internal functions in tclVar.c
+
+ Additionally, direct access to variable hash tables via the standard
+ Tcl_Hash* interface is to be considered as deprecated. It still works
+ in the present version, but will be broken by further specialisation
+ of these hash tables. This concerns especially the table of array
+ elements in an array, as well as the varTable field in the Namespace
+ struct.
+
+2007-07-31 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+ * unix/configure.in: allow use of 'inline' in Tcl sources. [Patch

+2007-07-31 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>

+ * generic/tclExecute.c (TEBC, TclGetSrcInfoForCmd):
+ * generic/tclInt.h:
+ * generic/tclTrace.c (TclCheck(Interp|Execution)Traces):
+ Removed the need for TEBC to inspect the command before calling TEOvI,

+ into TEOvI/GetCommandSource.
+
+2007-07-20 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
+
+ * library/platform/platform.tcl: Fixed bug in 'platform::patterns'
+ * library/platform/pkgIndex.tcl: where identifiers not matching
+ * unix/Makefile.in: the special linux and solaris forms would not
+ * win/Makefile.in: get 'tcl' as an acceptable platform added to
+ * doc/platform.n: the result. Bumped package to version 1.0.3 and

+ fixed bad version info in the documentation of platform::shell.
+
+2007-07-19 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclParse.c: In contexts where interp and parsePtr->interp
+ might be different, be sure to use the latter for error reporting.
+ Also pulled the interp argument back out of ParseTokens() since we
+ already had a parsePtr->interp to work with.
+
+2007-07-18 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclCompExpr.c: Removed unused arguments and variables
+
+2007-07-17 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclCompExpr.c (ParseExpr): While adding comments to
+ explain the operations of ParseExpr(), made significant revisions to
+ the code so it would be easier to explain, and in the process made the
+ code simpler and clearer as well.
+
+2007-07-15 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclCompExpr.c: More commentary.
+ * tests/parseExpr.test: Several tests of syntax error messages
+ to check that when expression substrings are truncated they leave
+ visible the context relevant to the reported error.
+
+2007-07-12 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclCompExpr.c: Factored out, corrected, and commented

+
+2007-07-11 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileWhileCmd):
+ * generic/tclCompile.c (TclCompileScript):
+ Corrected faulty avoidance of INST_START_CMD when the first opcode in
+ a script is within a loop (as produced by 'while 1'), so that the
+ corresponding command is properly counted. [Bug 1752146]
+
+2007-07-11 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclCompExpr.c: Added a "parseOnly" flag argument to
+ ParseExpr() to indicate whether the caller is Tcl_ParseExpr(), with an
+ end goal of filling a Tcl_Parse with Tcl_Tokens representing the
+ parsed expression, or TclCompileExpr() with the goal of compiling and
+ executing the expression. In the latter case, more aggressive
+ conversion of QUOTED and BRACED lexeme to literals is done. In the
+ former case, all such conversion is avoided, since Tcl_Token
+ production would revert it anyway. This enables simplifications to the
+ GenerateTokensForLiteral() routine as well.
+
+2007-07-10 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclCompExpr.c: Added a field for operator precedence
+ to be stored directly in the parse tree. There's no memory cost to
+ this addition, since that memory would have been lost to alignment
+ issues anyway. Also, converted precedence definitions and lookup
+ tables to use symbolic constants instead of raw number for improved
+ readability, and continued extending/improving/correcting comments.
+ Removed some unused counter variables. Renamed some variables for
+ clarity and replaced some cryptic logic with more readable macros.
+
+2007-07-09 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclCompExpr.c: Revision so that the END lexeme never
+ gets inserted into the parse tree. Later tree traversal never reaches
+ it since its location in the tree is not variable. Starting and
+ stopping with the START lexeme (node 0) is sufficient. Also finished
+ lexeme code commentary.
+
+ * generic/tclCompExpr.c: Added missing creation and return of
+ the Tcl_Parse fields that indicate error conditions. [Bug 1749987]
+
+2007-07-05 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * library/init.tcl (unknown): Corrected inconsistent error message

+
+2007-07-02 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclHash.c (CompareStringKeys): Always use the strcmp()

+ identical (up to measurement limitations), and yet the code is
+ simpler. [FRQ 951168]
+
+2007-07-02 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tcl.h: Removed TCL_PRESERVE_BINARY_COMPATIBILITY and
+ * generic/tclHash.c: any code enabled when it is set to 0. We will
+ * generic/tclStubInit.c: always want to preserve binary compat
+ of the structs that appear in the interface through the 8.* series of

+ alternative.
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c: Removed dead code.
+ * unix/tclUnixChan.c:
+
+ * generic/tclCompExpr.c: Removed dead code, old implementations

+
+2007-06-29 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net>
+

+
+ * generic/tclObj.c (Tcl_GetCommandFromObj): rewritten to make the

+
+ * generic/tclBasic.c: Split TEOv in two, by separating a processor
+ for non-TCL_OK returns. Also split TEOvI in a full version that
+ handles non-existing and traced commands, and a separate shorter
+ version for the regular case.
+
+ * generic/tclBasic.c: Moved the generation of command strings for
+ * generic/tclTrace.c: traces: previously in Tcl_EvalObjv(), now in
+ TclCheck[Interp|Execution]Traces(). Also insured that the strings are
+ properly NUL terminated at the correct length. [Bug 1693986]
+
+ ***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY in internal API***
+ The functions TclCheckInterpTraces() and TclCheckExecutionTraces() (in
+ internal stubs) used to be noops if the command string was NULL, this
+ is not true anymore: if the command string is NULL, they generate an
+ appropriate string from (objc,objv) and use it to call the traces. The
+ caller might as well not call them with a NULL string if he was

+ Deleted an entirely superfluous (and also incorrect) remark about the
+ effect of Daylight Saving Time on relative times in [clock scan]. [Bug
+ 1582951]
+ * library/clock.tcl: Corrected an error in skipping over the %Ey field
+ on input.
+ * library/msgs/ja.msg:

+ * generic/tclPathObj.c: Corrected a 'const'ness fault that caused
+ bitter complaints from MSVC.
+ * tests/clock.test (clock-40.1, clock-58.1, clock-59.1): Corrected a
+ test case that depended on ":localtime" being able to handle dates
+ prior to the Posix epoch. [Bug 1618445] Added a test case for the
+ dates of the Japanese emperors. [Bug 1637471] Added a regression test
+ for military time zone input conversion. [Bug 1586828]

+2007-04-18 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c (INST_LSHIFT): fixed a mistake introduced in

+
+2007-04-10 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
+
+ * generic/tclInt.h (TclNewLiteralStringObj): New macro to make

+ of the length argument. Based on [Patch 1529526] (afredd)
+ * generic/*.c: Make use of this (in many files).

+2007-03-24 Zoran Vasiljevic <vasiljevic@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * win/tclWinThrd.c: Thread exit handler marks the current thread as

+ Tcl's evaluation stack.
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c: Revised GrowEvaluationStack to take an

+
+2007-03-08 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>

+2006-10-16 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * changes: updates for 8.5a5 release.
+
+ * unix/tclUnixThrd.c (TclpThreadGetStackSize): Darwin: fix for main

+
+ * macosx/GNUmakefile: don't redo prebinding of non-prebound binaires.
+
+2006-10-16 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclPkg.c (ExactRequirement): Plugged memory leak. Also
+ changed Tcl_Alloc()/Tcl_Free() calls to ckalloc()/ckfree() for easier
+ memory debugging in the future. [Bug 1568373]
+
+ * library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl: Revise tcltest bump to 2.3a1.
+ * library/tcltest/pkgIndex.tcl: This permits more features to be
+ * unix/Makefile.in: added to tcltest before we reach version 2.3.0
+ * win/Makefile.in: best timed to match the release of Tcl 8.5.0.
+ * win/makefile.vc: This also serves as a demo of TIP 268 features
+
+2006-10-13 Colin McCormack <coldstore@users.sf.net>
+
+ * win/tclWinFile.c: corrected erroneous attempt to protect against
+ NULL return from Tcl_FSGetNormalizedPath per [Bug 1548263] causing
+ [Bug 1575837].
+ * win/tclWinFile.c: alfredd supplied patch to fix [Bug 1575837]
+
+2006-10-13 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net>

+2006-10-12 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclInterp.c (ApplyObjCmd):

+
+2006-10-12 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
+
+ * win/nmakehlp.c: Replaced all wnsprintf() calls with snprintf().

+
+2006-10-10 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * changes: Updates for 8.5a5 release.
+
+ * generic/tclNamespace.c (TclTeardownNamespace): After the
+ commandPathSourceList of a namespace is cleared, set the
+ commandPathSourceList to NULL so we don't try to walk the list a
+ second time, possibly after it is freed. [Bug 1566526]
+ * tests/namespace.test (namespace-51.16): Added test.
+
+2006-10-09 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+ * doc/UpVar.3: brough the docs in accordance to the code. Ever since
+ 8.0, Tcl_UpVar(2)? accepts TCL_NAMESPACE_ONLY as a flag value, and
+ var-3.4 tests for proper behaviour. The docs only allowed 0 and
+ TCL_GLOBAL_ONLY. [Bug 1574099]
+
+2006-10-09 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+ * tests/*.test: updated all tests to refer explicitly to the global
+ variables ::errorInfo, ::errorCode, ::env and ::tcl_platform: many
+ were relying on the alternative lookup in the global namespace, that
+ feature is tested specifically in namespace and variable tests.
+
+ The modified testfiles are: apply.test, basic.test, case.test,
+ cmdIL.test, cmdMZ.test, compExpr-old.test, error.test, eval.test,

+ * tzdata/: Olson's tzdata2006m.
+
+2006-10-01 Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>

+
+2006-10-01 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+ * doc/Eval.3 (TclEvalObjv): added note on refCount management for the

+
+2006-10-01 Pat Thoyts <patthoyts@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * win/tclWinFile.c: Handle possible missing define.

+
+2006-09-30 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+

+
+ * generic/tclInt.decls:
+ * generic/tclInt.h:
+ * generic/tclIntDecls.h:
+ * generic/tclObj.c:
+ * generic/tclStubInit.c: added an internal function TclObjBeingDeleted

+ 1512138]
+
+ * generic/tclCompile.c:
+ * generic/tclHistory.c:
+ * generic/tclInt.h:
+ * generic/tclProc.c: made Tcl_RecordAndEvalObj not call "history" if

+ when debugging [FR 1190441]. Moved TclCompileNoOp from tclProc.c to
+ tclCompile.c
+
+2006-09-28 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
+
+ * generic/tclPkg.c (CompareVersions): Bugfix. Check string lengths
+ * tests/pkg.test: before comparison. The shorter string is the smaller
+ number. Added testcases as well. Interestingly all existing test cases
+ for vcompare compared numbers of the same length with each other. [Bug
+ 1563836]
+
+2006-09-28 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_GetsObj): added two test'n'panic guards for
+ possible NULL derefs, [Bug 1566382] and coverity #33.
+
+2006-09-27 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c: Corrected error in INST_LSHIFT in the
+ * tests/expr.test: calculation done to determine whether a shift
+ in the (long int) type is possible. The calculation had literal value
+ "1" where it needed a value "1L" to compute the correct result. Error
+ detected via testing with the math::bigfloat package [Bug 1567222]
+
+ * generic/tclPkg.c (CompareVersion): Flatten strcmp() results to
+ {-1, 0, 1} to match expectations of CompareVersion() callers.
+
+2006-09-27 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/regc_color.c (singleton):
+ * generic/regc_cvec.c (addmcce):
+ * generic/regcomp.c (compile, dovec): the static function addmcce does
+ nothing when called with two NULL pointers; the only call is by
+ compile with two NULL pointers (regcomp.c #includes regc_cvec.c).
+ Large parts (all?) the code for mcce (multi character collating
+ element) that we do not use is ifdef'ed out with the macro
+ REGEXP_MCCE_ENABLE.
+ This silences coverity bugs 7, 16, 80
+
+ * generic/regc_color.c (uncolorchain):
+ * generic/regc_nfa.c (freearc): changed tests and asserts to
+ equivalent formulation, designed to avoid an explicit comparison to
+ NULL and satisfy coverity that 6 and 9 are not bugs.
+
+2006-09-27 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
+
+ * tests/pkg.test: Added test for version comparison at the 32bit
+ boundary. [Bug 1563836]
+
+ * generic/tclPkg.c: Rewrote CompareVersion to perform string
+ comparison instead of numeric. This breaks through the 32bit limit on
+ version numbers. See code for details (handling of leading zeros,
+ signs, etc.). un-CONSTed some arguments of CompareVersions,
+ RequirementSatisfied, and AllRequirementsSatisfied. The new compare
+ modifies the string (temporary string terminators). All callers use
+ heap-allocated ver-intreps, so we are good with that. [Bug 1563836]
+
+2006-09-27 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclFileName.c (TclGlob): added a panic for a call with
+ TCL_GLOBMODE_TAILS and pathPrefix==NULL. This would cause a segfault,
+ as found by coverity #26.
+
+2006-09-26 Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
+
+ * doc/Encoding.3: Added covariant 'const' qualifier for the
+ * generic/tcl.decls: Tcl_EncodingType argument to
+ * generic/tclEncoding.c: Tcl_CreateEncoding. [Further TIP#27 work.]
+ * generic/tclDecls.h: Reran 'make genstubs'.
+
+2006-09-26 Pat Thoyts <patthoyts@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * win/makefile.vc: Additional compiler flags and amd64 support.
+ * win/nmakehlp.c:
+ * win/rules.vc:
+
+2006-09-26 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tcl.h: As 2006-09-22 commit from Donal K. Fellows
+ demonstrates, "#define NULL 0" is just wrong, and as a quotable chat
+ figure observed, "If NULL isn't defined, we're not using a C compiler"
+ Improper fallback definition of NULL removed.
+
+2006-09-25 Pat Thoyts <patthoyts@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tcl.h: More fixing which struct stat to refer to.
+ * generic/tclGetDate.y: Some casts from time_t to int required.
+ * generic/tclTimer.c: Tcl_Time structure members are longs.
+ * win/makefile.vc: Support for varying compiler options
+ * win/rules.vc: and build to platform-specific subdirs.
+
+2006-09-25 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_StackChannel): Fixed [Bug 1564642], aka
+ coverity #51. Extended loop condition, added checking for NULL to
+ prevent seg.fault.
+
+2006-09-25 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
+
+ * doc/package.n: Fixed nits reported by Daniel Steffen in the TIP#268

+
+2006-09-25 Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
+
+ * generic/tclNotify.c (Tcl_DeleteEvents): Simplified the code in hopes

+ event queue memory is managed correctly.
+
+2006-09-25 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclNotify.c (Tcl_DeleteEvents): Make it clear what happens

+
+2006-09-24 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclParse.c (Tcl_ParseCommand): also return an error if
+ start==NULL and numBytes<0. This is coverity's bug #20
+
+ * generic/tclStringObj.c (STRING_SIZE): fix allocation for 0-length
+ strings. This is coverity's bugs #54-5
+
+2006-09-22 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>

+ string. [Bug 1547681]
+
+2006-08-27 Joe Mistachkin <joe@mistachkin.com>

+
+2006-08-23 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclParseExpr.c: Minimal collection of new tests
+ * tests/parseExpr.test: testing the error messages of the new

+ during that effort.
+
+2006-08-21 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>

+
+2006-08-21 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * macosx/tclMacOSXNotify.c (Tcl_WaitForEvent): if the run loop is
+ already running (e.g. if Tcl_WaitForEvent was called recursively),
+ re-run it in a custom run loop mode containing only the source for the
+ notifier thread, otherwise wakeups from other sources added to the
+ common run loop modes might get lost.
+
+ * unix/tclUnixNotfy.c (Tcl_WaitForEvent): on 64-bit Darwin,
+ pthread_cond_timedwait() appears to have a bug that causes it to wait
+ forever when passed an absolute time which has already been exceeded
+ by the system time; as a workaround, when given a very brief timeout,
+ just do a poll on that platform. [Bug 1457797]

+
+ * generic/tclTomMath.h: on Darwin 64-bit, for now disable use of

+ link errors due to missing fallbacks. (rdar://4685527)
+
+ * macosx/Tcl.xcodeproj/project.pbxproj: add x86_64 to universal build,

+
+ * macosx/Tcl.xcodeproj/default.pbxuser: add test suite target that

+ window.
+
+ * tests/macOSXFCmd.test: fix use of deprecated resource fork paths.
+
+ * unix/tclUnixInit.c (TclpInitLibraryPath): move code that is only

+
+ * generic/tclLink.c (LinkTraceProc): fix 64-bit signed-with-unsigned
+ comparison warning from gcc4 -Wextra.
+
+ * unix/tclUnixChan.c (TclUnixWaitForFile): with timeout < 0, if
+ select() returns early (e.g. due to a signal), call it again instead
+ of returning a timeout result. Fixes intermittent event-13.8 failures.

+ 1526581]
+
+2006-08-03 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * unix/tclUnixPipe.c (TclpCreateProcess): for USE_VFORK: ensure

+ doesn't potentially corrupt global state in the parent's address space
+
+ * tests/compExpr-old.test: add 'oldExprParser' constraint to all tests
+ * tests/compExpr.test: that depend on the exact format of the
+ * tests/compile.test: error messages of the pre-2006-07-05
+ * tests/expr-old.test: expression parser. The constraint is on by
+ * tests/expr.test: default (i.e those tests still fail), but
+ * tests/for.test: can be turned off by passing '-constraints
+ * tests/if.test: newExprParser' to tcltest, which will skip
+ * tests/parseExpr.test: the 196 failing tests in the testsuite that
+ * tests/while.test: are caused by the new expression parser
+ error messages.
+
+2006-07-31 Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
+
+ * generic/tclClock.c (ConvertLocalToUTCUsingC): Corrected a regression
+ that caused dates before 1969 to be one day off in the :localtime time
+ zone if TZ is not set. [Bug 1531530]
+
+2006-07-30 Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
+
+ * generic/tclClock.c (GetJulianDayFromEraYearMonthDay): Corrected
+ several errors in converting dates before the Common Era [Bug 1426279]
+ * library/clock.tcl: Corrected syntax errors in generated code for %EC
+ %Ey, and %W format groups [Bug 1505383]. Corrected a bug in cache
+ management for format strings containing [glob] metacharacters [Bug
+ 1494664]. Corrected several errors in formatting/scanning of years
+ prior to the Common Era, and added the missing %EE format group to
+ indicate the era.
+ * tools/makeTestCases.tcl: Added code to make sure that %U and %V
+ format groups are included in the tests. (The code depends on %U and
+ %V formatting working correctly when 'makeTestCases.tcl' is run,
+ rather than making a completely independent check.) Added tests for
+ [glob] metacharacters in strings. Added tests for years prior to the
+ Common Era.
+ * tests/clock.test: Rebuilt with new test cases for all the above.
+
+2006-07-30 Joe English <jenglish@users.sourceforge.net>

+ * doc/AppInit.3: Fix typo [Bug 1496886]
+
+2006-07-26 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c: Corrected flawed overflow detection in
+ * tests/expr.test: INST_EXPON that caused [expr 2**64] to return
+ 0 instead of the same value as [expr 1<<64].
+
+2006-07-24 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * win/tclWinSock.c: Correct un-initialized Tcl_DString. Thanks to

+
+2006-07-21 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c:
+ * tests/execute.test (execute-9.1): dgp's fix for [Bug 1522803].
+
+2006-07-20 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * macosx/tclMacOSXNotify.c (Tcl_InitNotifier, Tcl_WaitForEvent):
+ create notifier thread lazily upon first call to Tcl_WaitForEvent()
+ rather than in Tcl_InitNotifier(). Allows calling exeve() in processes
+ where the event loop has not yet been run (Darwin's execve() fails in
+ processes with more than one thread), in particular allows embedders
+ to call fork() followed by execve(), previously the pthread_atfork()
+ child handler's call to Tcl_InitNotifier() would immediately recreate
+ the notifier thread in the child after a fork.
+
+ * macosx/tclMacOSXFCmd.c (TclMacOSXCopyFileAttributes): add support
+ * macosx/tclMacOSXNotify.c (Tcl_InitNotifier): for weakly
+ * unix/tclUnixInit.c (Tcl_GetEncodingNameFromEnvironment): importing
+ symbols not available on OSX 10.2 or 10.3, enables binaires built on
+ later OSX versions to run on earlier ones.
+ * macosx/Tcl.xcodeproj/project.pbxproj: enable weak-linking; turn on
+ extra warnings.
+ * macosx/README: document how to enable weak-linking; cleanup.
+ * unix/tclUnixPort.h: add support for weak-linking; conditionalize
+ AvailabilityMacros.h inclusion; only disable realpath on 10.2 or
+ earlier when threads are enabled.
+ * unix/tclLoadDyld.c (TclpLoadMemoryGetBuffer): change runtime Darwin
+ * unix/tclUnixInit.c (TclpInitPlatform): release check to use
+ global initialized
+ once
+ * unix/tclUnixFCmd.c (DoRenameFile, TclpObjNormalizePath): add runtime
+ Darwin release check to determine if realpath is threadsafe.
+ * unix/configure.in: add check on Darwin for compiler support of weak
+ * unix/tcl.m4: import and for AvailabilityMacros.h header; move
+ Darwin specific checks & defines that are only relevant to the tcl
+ build out of tcl.m4; restrict framework option to Darwin; clean up
+ quoting and help messages.
+ * unix/configure: autoconf-2.59
+ * unix/tclConfig.h.in: autoheader-2.59

+
+2006-07-13 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
+
+ * unix/tclUnixPort.h: Added the inclusion of <AvailabilityMacros.h>.
+ The missing header caused the upcoming #if conditions to wrongly
+ exclude realpath, causing file normalize to ignore symbolic links in
+ the path.
+
+2006-07-11 Zoran Vasiljevic <vasiljevic@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclAsync.c: Made Tcl_AsyncDelete() more tolerant when called
+ after all thread TSD has been garbage-collected.
+
+2006-07-05 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclParseExpr.c: Completely new expression parser that
+ builds a parse tree instead of operating with deep recursion. This
+ corrects reports of stack-blowing crashes parsing long expressions
+ [Bug 906201] and replaces a fundamentally O(N^2) algorithm with an
+ O(N) one [RFE 903765]. The new parser is better able to generate error
+ messages that clearly report both the nature and context of the syntax
+ error [Bugs 1029267, 1381715]. For now, the code for the old parser is
+ still present and can be activated with a "#define OLD_EXPR_PARSER
+ 1". This is for the sake of a clean implementation patch, and for ease
+ of benchmarking. The new parser is non-recursive, so much lighter in
+ stack consumption, but it does use more heap, so there may be cases
+ where parsing of long expressions that succeeded with the old parser
+ will lead to out of memory panics with the new one. There are still
+ more improvements possible on that point, though significant progress
+ may require changes to the Tcl_Token specifications documented for the
+ public Tcl_Parse*() routines.
+ ***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY*** for any callers that rely on the exact
+ (usually terrible) error messages generated by the old parser. This
+ includes a large number of tests in the test suite.
+
+ * generic/tclInt.h: Replaced TclParseWhiteSpace() with
+ * generic/tclParse.c: TclParseAllWhiteSpace() which is what
+ * generic/tclParseExpr.c: all the callers really needed.
+ Breaking whitespace runs at newlines is useful only to the command
+ parsing function, and it can call the file scoped routine
+ ParseWhiteSpace() to do that.
+
+ * tests/expr-old.test: Removed knownBug constraints that masked
+ * tests/expr.test: failures due to revised error messages.
+ * tests/parseExpr.test:
+
+2006-06-20 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclIOUtil.c: Changed default configuration to
+ * generic/tclInt.decls: #undef USE_OBSOLETE_FS_HOOKS which disables
+ * generic/tclTest.c: access to the Tcl 8.3 internal routines for
+ hooking into filesystem operations. Everyone ought to have migrated to
+ Tcl_Filesystems by now.
+ ***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY*** for any code still stuck in the
+ pre-Tcl_Filesystem era.
+
+ * generic/tclIntDecls.h: make genstubs
+ * generic/tclStubInit.c:
+
+ * generic/tclStrToD.c: Removed dead code that permitted disabling of
+ recognition of the new 0b and 0o numeric formats.
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c: Removed dead code that implemented alternative
+ * generic/tclObj.c: design where numeric values did not
+ automatically narrow to the smallest Tcl_ObjType required to hold them
+
+ * generic/tclCmdAH.c: Removed dead code that was old implementation
+ of [format].
+
+2006-06-14 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * unix/tclUnixPort.h (Darwin): support MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED
+ define from AvailabilityMacros.h: override configure detection and
+ only use API available in the indicated OS version or earlier.
+
+2006-06-14 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>
+
+ * doc/format.n, doc/scan.n: Added examples for converting between
+ characters and their numeric interpretations following user prompting.
+
+2006-06-13 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ * unix/tclLoadDl.c (TclpDlopen): Workaround for a compiler bug in Sun
+ Forte 6. [Bug 1503729]
+
+2006-06-06 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * doc/GetStdChan.3: Added recommendation that each call to

+
+2006-06-05 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>
+
+ * doc/Alloc.3: Added documentation of promise that Tcl_Realloc(NULL,x)
+ is the same as Tcl_Alloc(x), as discussed in comp.lang.tcl. Also fixed
+ nonsense sentence to say something meaningful.
+
+2006-05-29 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
+
+ * generic/tcl.h (Tcl_DecrRefCount): use if/else construct to allow
+ placement in unbraced outer if/else conditions. (jcw)
+
+2006-05-27 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * macosx/tclMacOSXNotify.c: implemented pthread_atfork() handler that
+ * unix/tcl.m4 (Darwin): recreates CoreFoundation state and
+ notifier thread in the child after a fork(). Note that pthread_atfork
+ is available starting with Tiger only. Because vfork() is used by the
+ core on Darwin, [exec]/[open] are not affected by this fix, only
+ extensions or embedders that call fork() directly (such as TclX).
+ However, this only makes fork() safe from corefoundation tcl with
+ --disable-threads; as on all platforms, forked children may deadlock
+ in threaded tcl due to the potential for stale locked mutexes in the
+ child. [Patch 923072]

+
+2006-05-23 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>
+
+ * doc/chan.n, doc/refchan.n: Tighten up the documentation to follow a
+ slightly more consistent style with regard to argument capitalization.
+
+2006-05-13 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclProc.c (ProcCompileProc): When a bump of the compile
+ epoch forces the re-compile of a proc body, take care not to overwrite
+ any Proc struct that may be referred to on the active call stack. Note
+ that the fix will not be effective for code that calls the private
+ routine TclProcCompileProc() directly. [Bug 1482718]
+
+2006-05-13 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclEvent.c (HandleBgErrors): fix leak. [Coverity issue 86]

+2006-05-05 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclMain.c (Tcl_Main): Corrected flaw that required

+ * win/tclWinInit.c: More careful calls to Tcl_DStringSetLength()
+ * win/tclWinSock.c: to avoid creating invalid DString states. Bump
+ * win/tclWinDde.c: to version 1.3.2. [RFE 1366195]
+ * library/dde/pkgIndex.tcl:
+
+ * library/reg/pkgIndex.tcl: Bump to registry 1.2 because

+
+ * generic/tclIndexObj.c (Tcl_GetIndexFromObjStruct): Allow empty

+
+2006-04-03 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c (ReadChars): Added check, panic and commentary to a
+ piece of code which relies on BUFFER_PADDING to create enough space at
+ the beginning of each buffer for the insertion of partial multibyte
+ data at the beginning of a buffer. Commentary explains why this code
+ is OK, and the panic is as a precaution if someone twiddled the
+ BUFFER_PADDING into uselessness.
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c (ReadChars): Temporarily suppress the use of
+ TCL_ENCODING_END set when EOF was reached while the buffer we are
+ converting is not truly the last buffer in the queue. Together with
+ the Utf bug below it was possible to completely wreck the buffer data
+ structures, eventually crashing Tcl. [Bug 1462248]
+
+ * generic/tclEncoding.c (UtfToUtfProc): Stop accessing memory beyond
+ the end of the input buffer when TCL_ENCODING_END is set and the last
+ bytes of the buffer start a multi-byte sequence. This bug contributed
+ to [Bug 1462248].

+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c: Merge INST_MOD computation in with the

+2006-03-22 Reinhard Max <max@suse.de>
+
+ * tests/stack.test: Run the stack tests in subshells, so that they are

+2006-03-20 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
+
+ * win/Makefile.in (install-libraries): Generate tcl8/8.4 directory
+ under Windows as well (cygwin Makefile). Related entry: 2006-03-07,
+ dgp. This moved the installation of http from 8.2 to 8.4, partially. A
+ fix of the required directory creation was done for unix on Mar 10,
+ without entry in the Changelog. This entry is for the fix of the
+ directory creation under Windows.
+
+ * unix/installManPage: There is always one even more broken "sed".
+ Moved the # comment starting character in the sed script to the
+ beginning of their respective lines. The AIX sed will not recognize
+ them as comments otherwise :( The actual text stays indented for
+ better association with the commands they belong to.

+ * doc/FileSystem.3:
+ * tests/fileName.test: Fix to [Bug 1084705] so that 'glob -nocomplain'
+ finally agrees with its documentation and doesn't swallow genuine

+
+ ***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY*** for scripts that assumed '-nocomplain'
+ removes the need for 'catch' to deal with non-understood path names.
+
+ Small optimisation to implementation of pattern==NULL case of TclGlob,
+ and clarification to the documentation. [Tclvfs bug 1405317]

+
+ * tests/io.test (io-43.1 io-44.[1234]): Rewritten to be self-contained
+ with regard to setup and cleanup. [Bug 681793]
+
+ * generic/tclIOUtil.c (TclGetOpenMode): Added the flag O_APPEND to the
+ list of POSIX modes used when opening a file for 'a'ppend. This
+ enables the proper automatic seek-to-end-on-write by the OS. See [Bug
+ 680143] for longer discussion.
+
+ * tests/ioCmd.test (iocmd-13.7.*): Extended the testsuite to check the
+ new handling of 'a'.
+
+2006-03-15 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
+
+ * tests/socket.test: Extended the timeout in socket-11.11 from 10 to
+ 40 seconds to allow for really slow machines. Also extended
+ actual/expected results with value of variable 'done' to make it
+ clearer when a test fails due to a timeout. [Bug 792159]
+
+2006-03-15 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@sourceforge.net>
+
+ * win/fCmd.test: add proper test constraints so the new tests don't

+ [Bug 768659]
+
+2006-03-14 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
+
+ * doc/fconfigure.n: Clarified that -translation is binary is reported

+ special additional behaviour when setting it. [Bug 666770]
+
+2006-03-14 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
+
+ * doc/clock.n: Removed double-quotes around section title NAME; not

+
+ -- Summary of changes fixing [Bug 1437595] --
+
+ * generic/tclEvent.c: Cosmetic touches and identation
+ * generic/tclInt.h: Added TclpFinalizeSockets() call.
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c: Calls TclpFinalizeSockets() as part of the
+ TclFinalizeIOSubsystem().
+
+ * unix/tclUnixSock.c: Added no-op TclpFinalizeSockets().
+
+ * win/tclWinPipe.c, win/tclWinSock.c: Finalization of sockets/pipes is
+ now solely done in TclpFinalizeSockets() and TclpFinalizePipes() and
+ not over the thread-exit handler, because the order of actions the Tcl
+ generic core will impose may result in cores/hangs if the thread exit
+ handler tears down corresponding subsystem(s) too early.
+
+2006-03-10 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@sourceforge.net>

+
+ * changes: Update in prep. for 8.5a4 release.
+
+ * unix/Makefile.in: Package http 2.5.2 requires Tcl 8.4, so the

+
+2006-02-22 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>

+2006-01-26 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>
+
+ * unix/tclUnixChan.c (TclpOpenFileChannel): Tidy up and comment the
+ mess to do with setting up serial channels. This (deliberately) breaks
+ a broken FreeBSD port, indicates what we're really doing, and reduces

+
+2006-01-25 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>

+ * win/tclAppInit.c: WIN32 native console signal handler removed. This
+ was found to be interfering with TWAPI extension one. IMO, special
+ services such as signal handlers should best be done with extensions
+ to the core after discussions on c.l.t. about Roy Terry's tclsh
+ children of a real windows service shell.

+ * generic/tclZlib.c (ZlibStreamCmd): Fix compilation consistency. [Bug
+ * generic/tcl.decls: 2470237]
+
+ * generic/tclZlib.c (Tcl_ZlibStreamGet): Corrected the semantics of
+ this function to be useful to the PNG implementation. If the argument
+ object is empty, this gives the previous semantics.
+ (Tcl_ZlibStreamChecksum): Corrected name to be less misleading; it
+ only produced Adler-32 checksums when the stream was processing the
+ right type of compressed data format.
+ (Tcl_ZlibAdler32, Tcl_ZlibCRC32): Corrected types so that they work
+ naturally with the results of Tcl_GetByteArrayFromObj().

+ effort correlating with TIPs and ChangeLogs.

+
+ * win/Makefile.in: Renamed the static library libtcl86s.a to
+ * win/configure.in: have a name distinct from the import library
+ libtcl86.a. This renaming dodges an ancient
+ bug in the Makefile revealed by the last
+ commit where the $(TCL_LIB_FILE) rule can
+ fire to try to build the static library in a
+ --enable-shared build (and create a static
+ library that subsequently fails to link).
+ Revised the zlib objects so that they are
+ built directly into the build dir, without
+ building an intermediate static library.

+
+2008-11-04 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
+
+ * generic/tclPort.h: Remove the ../win/ header dir as the build system

+
+2008-10-31 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclOOBasic.c (TclOONRUpcatch): Reworked the code that does
+ * generic/tclOO.c (InitFoundation): class constructor handling so
+ that it is more robust and runs the constructor call in the context of

+ previously used code did not work at all after applying the fix below;
+ no Tcl existing command could reliably do what was needed any more.
+
+ * generic/tclOODefineCmds.c (GetClassInOuterContext): Rework and
+ factor out the code to resolve class names in definitions so that
+ classes are resolved from the perspective of the caller of the
+ [oo::define] command, rather than from the oo::define namespace! This
+ makes much code simpler by reducing how often fully-qualified names
+ are required (previously always in practice, so no back-compat issues
+ exist). [Bug 2200824]

+ built in to the C source code for Tcl now, there's no availability
+ issue, and it has the good feature of "identity" that we must have

+2008-08-01 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclBasic.c: Revised timing of the CmdFrame stack
+ * tests/info.test: management in TclEvalEx so that the CmdFrame
+ will still be on the stack at the time Tcl_LogCommandInfo is called to
+ append another level of -errorinfo information. Sets the stage to add

+
+2008-07-31 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+ * tests/NRE.test: Replaced all deep-recursing tests by shallower

+
+ * generic/tclBasic.c: Made use of the thread's alloc cache stored in
+ * generic/tclInt.h: the ekeko at interp creation to avoid hitting
+ * generic/tclNRE.h: the TSD each time an NRE callback is pushed or
+ * generic/tclThreadAlloc.c: pulled; the approach is suitably general

+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c: Fix [Bug 2030670] that cause TclStackRealloc
+ to panic on rare corner cases. Thx ajpasadyn for diagnose and patch.
+
+ * generic/tcl.decls: Completely revamped NRE implementation, with
+ * generic/tclBasic.c: (almost) unchanged API.
+ * generic/tclCompile.h:
+ * generic/tclExecute.c: TEBC will require a bit of a facelift, but
+ * generic/tclInt.decls: TEOV at least looks great now. There are new
+ * generic/tclInt.h: tests (incomplete!) to verify that execution
+ * generic/tclInterp.c: is indeed in the same TEBC instance, at the
+ * generic/tclNRE.h: same level in all stacks involved. Tailcalls
+ * generic/tclNamesp.c: are still a bit leaky, still deserving to be
+ * generic/tclOOBasic.c: in tcl::unsupported.
+ * generic/tclOOMethod.c:
+ * generic/tclProc.c: Uninit'd var warnings in TEBC with -O2, no
+ * generic/tclTest.c: warnings otherwise.

+2008-07-28 Jan Nijtmans <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+ * doc/FileSystem.3: CONSTified many functions using

+ This change complies with TIP #27.
+ ***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
+
+2008-07-28 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
+
+ * generic/tclBasic.c: Added missing ref count when creating an empty
+ string as path (TclEvalEx). In 8.4 the missing code caused panics in
+ the testsuite. It doesn't in 8.5. I am guessing that the code path
+ with the missing the incr-refcount is not invoked any longer. Because
+ the bug in itself is certainly the same.
+
+2008-07-27 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>

+2008-07-27 Jan Nijtmans <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+ * doc/Object.3: CONSTified 3 functions using Tcl_ObjType

+ * generic/tcl.h: Tcl_RegisterObjType, Tcl_ConvertToType,
+ * generic/tclDecls.h: Tcl_GetObjType
+ * generic/tclObj.c: Introduced a CONST86_RETURN, so extensions
+ * generic/tclCompCmds.c: which use Tcl_ObjType directly can be
+ * generic/tclOOMethod.c: modified to compile against both Tcl 8.5 and
+ * generic/tclTestobj.c: Tcl 8.6. tclDecls.h regenerated

+2008-07-25 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
+
+ * test/info.test: More work on singleTestInterp usability. [1605269]
+
+ * tests/info.test: Tests 38.* added, exactly testing the tracking of
+ location for uplevel scripts. Resolved merge conflict on info-37.0,
+ switched !singleTestInterp constraint to glob matching instead. Ditto
+ info-22.8, removed constraint, more glob matching, and reduced the
+ depth of the stack we check. More is coming, right now I want to
+ commit the bug fixes.
+
+ * tests/oo.test: Updated oo-22.1 for expanded location tracking.
+
+ * generic/tclCompile.c (TclInitCompileEnv): Reorganized the
+ initialization of the #280 location information to match the flow in
+ TclEvalObjEx to get more absolute contexts.
+
+ * generic/tclBasic.c (TclEvalObjEx): Added missing cleanup of extended
+ location information.
+
+2008-07-25 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * tests/info.test (info-37.0): Add !singleTestInterp constraint;

+ to tcltest.tcl line number changes, remove knownBug constraint, fix
+ expected result. [Bug 1605269]
+
+2008-07-24 Jan Nijtmans <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+ * doc/Notifier.3: CONSTified 4 functions in the Notifier which

+ * generic/tcl.h: reflected in the API:

+
+ * tests/info.test: Reordered the tests to have monotonously increasing

+
+ * generic/tclBasic.c: Modified TclArgumentGet to reject pure lists
+ * generic/tclCmdIL.c: immediately, without search. Reworked setup of
+ * generic/tclCompile.c: eoFramePtr, doesn't need the line information,
+ * tests/info.test: more sensible to have everything on line 1 when
+ eval'ing a pure list. Updated the users of the line information to
+ special case this based on the frame type (i.e.
+ TCL_LOCATION_EVAL_LIST). Added a testcase demonstrating the new
+ behaviour.

+ * generic/tclCompile.h: ansified.
+
+ * generic/tclBasic.c: Ansified the new functions. Added missing
+ function comments.
+
+ * generic/tclBasic.c: Reworked the handling of bytecode literals for
+ * generic/tclCompile.c: #280 to fix the abysmal performance for deep
+ * generic/tclCompile.h: recursion, replaced the linear search through
+ * generic/tclExecute.c: the whole stack with another hashtable and
+ * generic/tclInt.h: simplified the data structure used by the compiler
+ by using an array instead of a hashtable. Incidentially this also
+ fixes the memory leak reported via [Bug 2024937].
+
+2008-07-22 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>

+ * generic/tclCompile.c: making this information available to uplevel

+ transformation not lossy of internal representations and hence more
+ efficient. [Bug 2008248] (ajpasadyn) but using a more efficient patch.
+
+ * tests/fileName.test: Revise to reduce the obscurity of tests. In
+ particular, all tests should now produce informative messages on

+
+ * library/package.tcl: Removed [file readable] testing from

+
+ * generic/tclPathObj.c: Fixed bug in Tcl_GetTranslatedPath() when

+
+ TIP #285 IMPLEMENTATION
+
+ * doc/Eval.3: Added documentation for the Tcl_CancelEval and
+ Tcl_Canceled functions and the TCL_CANCEL_UNWIND flag bit.
+ * doc/after.n: Corrected the spelling of 'canceled' in the
+ documentation.
+ * doc/interp.n: Added documentation for [interp cancel].
+ * generic/tcl.decls: Added the Tcl_CancelEval and Tcl_Canceled
+ functions to the stubs table.
+ * generic/tcl.h: Added the TCL_CANCEL_UNWIND flag bit.
+ * generic/tclBasic.c: The bulk of the script cancellation
+ functionality is defined here. Added code to initialize and manage the
+ script cancellation hash table in a thread-safe manner. Reset script
+ cancellation flags prior to increasing the nesting level (if the
+ nesting level is currently zero) and always cooperatively check for
+ script cancellation near the start of TclEvalObjvInternal and after
+ invoking async handlers.
+ * generic/tclDecls.h: Regenerated.
+ * generic/tclEvent.c: Call TclFinalizeEvaluation during finalization
+ to cleanup the script cancellation hash table. During [vwait], always
+ cooperatively check for script cancellation. Corrected the spelling of
+ 'canceled' in comments to be consistent with the documentation.
+ * generic/tclExecute.c: Reset script cancellation flags prior to
+ increasing the nesting level (if the nesting level is currently zero)
+ and always cooperatively check for script cancellation after invoking
+ async handlers. Prevent [catch] from catching script cancellation when
+ the TCL_CANCEL_UNWIND flag is set (similar to the manner used by TIP
+ 143 when a limit has been exceeded).
+ * generic/tclInt.decls: Added TclResetCancellation to the internal
+ stubs table.
+ * generic/tclInt.h: Added asyncCancel and asyncCancelMsg fields to the
+ private Interp structure. Added private interp flag value CANCELED to
+ help control script cancellation.
+ * generic/tclIntDecls.h: Regenerated.
+ * generic/tclInterp.c (Tcl_InterpObjCmd): Added [interp cancel]
+ subcommand.
+ * generic/tclNotify.c (Tcl_DeleteEventSource): Corrected the spelling
+ of 'canceled' in comments to be consistent with the documentation.
+ * generic/tclParse.c: Reset script cancellation flags prior to
+ * generic/tclProc.c: increasing the nesting level (if the nesting
+ level is currently zero) and cooperatively check for script
+ cancellation prior to evaluating commands.
+ * generic/tclStubInit.c: Regenerated.
+ * generic/tclThreadTest.c (Tcl_ThreadObjCmd): Added script
+ cancellation support ([testthread cancel]).
+ Modified [testthread id] to allow querying of the 'main' thread ID.
+ Corrected comments to reflect the actual command syntax. Made
+ [testthread wait] cooperatively check for script cancellation. Added
+ [testthread event] to allow for processing one pending event without
+ blocking.
+ * generic/tclTimer.c: Delay for a maximum of 500 milliseconds prior to
+ checking for async handlers and script cancellation.
+ * tests/cmdAH.test: Changed [interp c] to [interp create].
+ * tests/interp.test: Added and fixed tests for [interp cancel].
+ * tests/thread.test: Added tests for script cancellation via
+ [testthread cancel].
+ * tools/man2help2.tcl: Fixed problems with WinHelp target (see
+ * tools/man2tcl.c: [Bug 1934200], [Bug 1934265], and [Bug 1934272]).
+ * win/makefile.vc: Added 'pdbs' option for Windows build rules to
+ * win/rules.vc: allow for non-debug builds with full symbols.
+ * win/tcl.hpj.in: Corrected version for WinHelp target.
+ * win/tclWinNotify.c: Used SleepEx and WaitForSingleObjectEx on
+ * win/tclWinThrd.c: Windows because they are alertable.
+
+2008-06-12 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * unix/Makefile.in: Add complete deps on tclDTrace.h.
+
+ * generic/tclOO.c: Use TclOOStubs hooks field to retrieve

+2008-06-10 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
+
+ * tests/ioTrans.test (iortrans.tf-6.1): Fixed the [Bug 1988552],
+ reported by Kevin. Have to close the channel before removal of the
+ file. Fixed same bug in test 'iortrans.tf-11.0', after fixing missing
+ cleanup of the file in 'iortrans.tf-11.*'. Lastly fixed the names of
+ the threaded tests 'iortrans-8.*' to the correct 'iortrans.tf-8.*'.
+
+2008-06-09 Andreas Kupries <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclIORTrans.c (ReflectInput): Fixed a bug triggered by Pat
+ Thoyts <patthoyts@users.sourceforge.net>. Reset the EOF flag after
+ draining the Tcl level into the result buffer, to make sure that the
+ result buffer will be drained as well by repeated calls to
+ ReflectInput should it contain more than one buffer-full of data.
+ Without that reset the higher I/O system will not call on ReflectInput
+ anymore due to the assumed EOF, thus losing the data which did not fit
+ in the buffer of the call which caused the eof and drain.
+
+2008-06-09 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>

+
+ * generic/tclBasic.c: Compilation of uplevel scripts, allow

+ by Alexander Pasadyn. [Bug 1964803]
+
+2008-05-15 Pat Thoyts <patthoyts@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * win/makefile.vc: We should use the thread allocator for threaded
+ * win/rules.vc: builds. Added 'tclalloc' option to disable.
+
+2008-05-09 George Peter Staplin <georgeps@xmission.com>
+
+ * tools/tsdPerf.c: A loadable Tcl extension for testing TSD
+ performance.
+ * tools/tsdPerf.tcl: A simplistic tool that uses the thread
+ extension and tsdPerf.so to get some performance metrics by,
+ simulating, simple TSD contention.
+
+2008-05-09 George Peter Staplin <georgeps@xmission.com>
+
+ * generic/tcl.h: Make Tcl_ThreadDataKey a void *.
+ * generic/tclInt.h: Change around some function names and add some
+ new per-platform declarations for thread-specific data functions.
+ * generic/tclThread.c: Make use of of the new function names that no
+ longer have a Tclp prefix.
+ * generic/tclThreadStorage.c: Replace the core thread-specific data
+ (TSD) mechanism with an array offset solution that eliminates the hash
+ tables, and only uses one slot of native TSD. Many thanks to Kevin B.
+ Kenny for his help with this.
+
+ * unix/tclUnixThrd.c: Add platform-specific TSD functions for use by
+ * win/tclWinThrd.c: tclThreadStorage.c.
+
+2008-05-09 Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
+
+ * tests/dict.test (dict-19.2): Corrected a bug where the test was
+ changed to use [apply] instead of a temporary proc, but the cleanup
+ script still attempted to delete the temporary proc.
+
+2008-05-07 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@cspool38.cs.man.ac.uk>
+
+ * generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileDictAppendCmd): Fix silly off-by
+ one error that caused a crash every time a compiled 'dict append' with
+ more than one argument was used. Found by Colin McCormack.
+
+2008-05-02 Pat Thoyts <patthoyts@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclBasic.c: Converted the [binary] command into an
+ * generic/tclBinary.c: ensemble.
+ * generic/tclInt.h:
+ * test/binary.test: Updated the error tests for ensemble errors.
+
+ * generic/tclFileName.c: Reverted accidental commit of TIP 316 APIs.
+
+2008-04-27 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ * */*.c: A large tranche of getting rid of pre-C89-isms; if your
+ compiler doesn't support things like proper function declarations,
+ 'void' and 'const', borrow a proper one when building Tcl. (The header
+ files allow building things that link against Tcl with really ancient
+ compilers still; the requirement is just when building Tcl itself.)
+
+2008-04-26 Zoran Vasiljevic <vasiljevic@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclAsync.c: Tcl_AsyncDelete(): panic if attempt to locate
+ handler token fails. Happens when some other thread attempts to delete
+ somebody else's token.
+
+ Also, panic early if we find out the wrong thread attempting to delete
+ the async handler (common trap). As, only the one that created the
+ handler is allowed to delete it.
+
+2008-04-24 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
+
+ * tests/ioCmd.test: Extended testsuite for reflected channel
+ implementation. Added test cases about how it handles if the rug is
+ pulled out from under a channel (= killing threads, interpreters
+ containing the tcl command for a channel, and channel sitting in a
+ different interpreter/thread.)
+
+ * generic/tclIORChan.c: Fixed the bugs exposed by the new testcases,
+ redone most of the cleanup and exit handling.
+
+2008-04-21 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclIOUtil.c: Removed all code delimited by
+ * generic/tclTest.c: USE_OBSOLETE_FS_HOOKS, completing
+ * tests/ioCmd.test: the deprecation path for these
+ * tests/ioUtil.test (removed): obsolete interfaces. (Code was active
+ in Tcl 8.4, present but enabled only by customized compile switch in
+ Tcl 8.5, and now completely gone for Tcl 8.6). Also removed all tests
+ relevant only to the removed interfaces.
+
+2008-04-19 George Peter Staplin <georgeps@xmission.com>

+ * doc/Ensemble.3: Fix a typo: s/defiend/defined/
+ Thanks to hat0 for spotting this.
+
+2008-04-16 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclInt.h: Make stubs tables 'static const' and
+ * generic/tclStubInit.c: export only module-scope pointers to
+ * generic/tclStubLib.c: the main stubs tables (for package
+ * tools/genStubs.tcl: initialization). [Patch 1938497]
+ * generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_CreateInterp):
+ * generic/tclTomMathInterface.c (TclTommath_Init):
+
+ * generic/tclInt.h: Revise Tcl_SetNotifier() to use a

+ * generic/tclStubInit.c: runtime stubs-table modification;
+ * macosx/tclMacOSXNotify.c: ensure all hookable notifier functions
+ * win/tclWinNotify.c: check for hooks; remove hook checks in
+ * unix/tclUnixNotfy.c: notifier API callers. [Patch 1938497]
+
+2008-04-15 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c (CopyData): Applied another patch by Alexandre
+ * io.test (io-53.8a): Ferrieux <ferrieux@users.sf.net>,
+ * chanio.test (chan-io-53.8a): to shift EOF handling to the async
+ part of the command if a callback is specified, should the channel be
+ at EOF already when fcopy is called. Testcase by myself.
+
+2008-04-15 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * unix/Makefile.in: Adjust tclDTrace.h dependencies for removal
+ of tclStubLib.o from TCL_OBJS. [Bug 1942795]
+
+2008-04-14 Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
+
+ * unix/tclUnixTime.c (NativeGetTime): Removed obsolete use of
+ 'struct timezone' in the call to 'gettimeofday'. [Bug 1942197]
+
+ * tests/clock.test (clock-33.5, clock-33.5a, clock-33.8, clock-33.8a):
+ Added comments to the test that it can fail on a heavily loaded
+ system.
+
+2008-04-10 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
+
+ * generic/tclIOCmd.c (Tcl_FcopyObjCmd): Keeping check for negative
+ values, changed to not be an error, but behave like the special value
+ -1 (copy all, default).
+
+ * tests/iocmd.test (iocmd-15.{12,13}): Removed.
+
+ * tests/io.test (io-52.5{,a,b}): Reverted last change, added
+ * tests/chanio.test (chan-io-52.5{,a,b}): comment regarding the
+ meaning of -1, added two more testcases for other negative values,
+ and input wrapped to negative.
+
+2008-04-09 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ * tests/{fCmd,unixFCmd,winFCmd,winFile}.test: Tidying up of the test
+ suite to make better use of tcltest2 and be clearer about what is
+ being tested.
+
+ * win/Makefile.in (html): Added target for doing convenient
+ documentation builds, mirroring the one from unix/Makefile.
+
+2008-04-09 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
+
+ * tests/chanio.test (chan-io-52.5): Removed '-size -1' from test,
+ * tests/io.test (io-52.5): does not seem to have any bearing, and was
+ an illegal value. Test case is not affected by the value of -size,
+ test flag restoration and that evrything was properly copied.
+
+ * generic/tclIOCmd.c (Tcl_FcopyObjCmd): Added checking of -size value
+ * tests/ioCmd.test (iocmd-15.{13,14}): to reject negative values, and
+ values overflowing 32-bit signed. Basic patch by Alexandre Ferrieux
+ <ferrieux@users.sourceforge.net>, with modifications from me to
+ separate overflow from true negative value. Extended testsuite. [Bug
+ 1557855]
+
+2008-04-09 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * tests/chanio.test (chan-io-53.8,53.9,53.10): Fix typo & quoting for
+ * tests/io.test (io-53.8,53.9,53.10): spaces in builddir path
+
+2008-04-08 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c: Added comments to the alignment macros used in
+ GrowEvaluationStack() and friends.
+
+2008-04-08 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * tools/genStubs.tcl: Revert erroneous 2008-04-02 change marking

+
+2008-04-07 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
+
+ * tests/io.test (io-53.10): Testcase for bi-directional fcopy.
+ * tests/chanio.test:
+ * generic/tclIO.c: Additional changes to data structures for fcopy and
+ * generic/tclIO.h: channels to perform proper cleanup in case of a
+ channel having two background copy operations running as is now
+ possible.
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c (BUSY_STATE, CheckChannelErrors, TclCopyChannel):
+ New macro, and the places using it. This change allows for
+ bi-directional fcopy on channels. Thanks to Alexandre Ferrieux
+ <ferrieux@users.sourceforge.net> for the patch. [Bug 1350564]
+
+2008-04-07 Reinhard Max <max@suse.de>
+
+ * generic/tclStringObj.c (Tcl_AppendFormatToObj): Fix [format {% d}]
+ so that it behaves the same way as in 8.4 and as C's printf().
+ * tests/format.test: Add a test for '% d' and '%+d'.
+
+2008-04-05 Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
+
+ * win/tclWinFile.c: (WinSymLinkDirectory): Fixed a problem that Tcl
+ was creating an NTFS junction point (IO_REPARSE_TAG_MOUNT_POINT) but
+ filling in the union member for a Vista symbolic link. We had gotten
+ away with this error because the union member
+ (SymbolicLinkReparseBuffer) was misdefined in this file and in the
+ 'winnt.h' in early versions of MinGW. MinGW 3.4.2 has the correct
+ definition of SymbolicLinkReparseBuffer, exposing the mismatch, and
+ making tests cmdAH-19.4.1, fCmd-28.*, and filename-11.* fail.
+ * tests/chanio.test (chan-io-53.9):
+ * tests/io.test (io-53.9): Made test cleanup robust against the
+ possibility of slow process shutdown on Windows.
+
+ * win/tcl.m4: Added -D_CRT_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE and
+ -DCRT_NONSTDC_NO_DEPRECATE to the MSVC compilation flags so that the
+ compilation doesn't barf on perfectly reasonable Posix system calls.
+ * win/configure: Manually patched (don't have the right autoconf to
+ hand).
+
+2008-04-04 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
+
+ * tests/io.test (io-53.9): Added testcase for [Bug 780533], based
+ * tests/chanio.test: on Alexandre's test script. Also fixed problem
+ with timer in preceding test, was not canceled properly in the ok case
+
+2008-04-04 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
+
+ * generic/tclIORChan.c (ReflectOutput): Allow zero return from write
+ when input was zero-length anyway. Otherwise keept it an error, and
+ separate the message from 'written too much'.
+
+ * tests/ioCmd.test (iocmd-24.6): Testcase updated for changed message.
+
+ * generic/tclIORChan.c (ReflectClose): Added missing removal of the
+ now closed channel from the reflection map. Before we could crash the
+ system by invoking 'chan postevent' on a closed reflected channel,
+ dereferencing the dangling pointer in the map.
+
+ * tests/ioCmd.test (iocmd-31.8): Testcase for the above.
+
+2008-04-03 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c (CopyData): Applied patch [Bug 1932639] to

+ * tests/chanio.test: the first time. Thanks to Alexandre Ferrieux
+ <ferrieux@users.sourceforge.net> for report and patch.
+
+2008-04-02 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tcl.decls: Remove 'export' declarations of symbols now
+ only in libtclstub and no longer in libtcl.
+
+ * generic/tclStubLib.c: Make symbols in libtclstub.a MODULE_SCOPE to
+ * tools/genStubs.tcl: avoid exporting them from libraries that link

+
+ * generic/tclInt.h (TclIsNaN):
+ * unix/configure.in: Added code to the configurator to check for a

+
+ * generic/tcl.h, generic/tclThreadAlloc.c: Tidied up the declarations

+
+2008-03-18 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
+
+ * library/tm.tcl (::tcl::tm::UnknownHandler): Changed 'source' to
+ 'source -encoding utf-8'. This fixes a portability problem of Tcl
+ Modules pointed out by Don Porter. By using plain 'source' we were at
+ the mercy of 'encoding system', making modules less portable than they
+ could be. The exact scenario: A writes a TM in some weird encoding
+ which is A's system encoding, distributes it, and somewhere else it
+ cannot be read/used because the system encoding is different. Forcing
+ the use of utf-8 makes the module portable.
+
+ ***INCOMPATIBILITY*** for all Tcl Modules already written in non-utf-8

+ * macosx/Tcl-Common.xcconfig: to ${builddir} and
+ * unix/Makefile.in: ${INSTALL_ROOT} to contain
+ * unix/configure.in: spaces.
+ * unix/install-sh:
+ * unix/tcl.m4:
+ * tests/ioCmd.test:
+
+ * unix/configure: autoconf-2.59
+
+ * unix/Makefile.in (install-strip): Strip non-global symbols from
+ dynamic library.
+
+ * unix/tclUnixNotfy.c: Fix warning.
+
+ * tests/exec.test (exec-9.7): Reduce timing sensitivity
+ * tests/socket.test (socket-2.11): (esp. on multi-proc machines).
+
+ * tests/fCmd.test (fCmd-9.4): Skip on Darwin 9 (xfail).
+
+2008-03-11 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclVar.c (TclDeleteNamespaceVars):
+ * tests/var.test (var-8.2): Unset traces on vars should be called with
+ a FQ named during namespace deletion. This was causing infinite loops
+ when unset traces recreated the var, as reported by Julian Noble. [Bug
+ 1911919]
+
+2008-03-10 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * changes: Updated for 8.5.2 release.
+
+ * doc/http.n: Revised to indicate that [package require http 2.5.5]
+ is needed to get all the documented commands ([http::meta]).
+
+ * generic/tclEvent.c (TclDefaultBgErrorHandlerObjCmd): Added error
+ * tests/event.test (event-5.*): checking to protect against callers
+ passing invalid return options dictionaries. [Bug 1901113]
+
+ * generic/tclBasic.c (ExprAbsFunc): Revised so that the abs()
+ * tests/expr.test: function and the [::tcl::mathfunc::abs]
+ command do not return the value of -0, or equivalent values with more
+ alarming string reps like -1e-350. [Bug 1893815]
+
+2008-03-07 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
+
+ * generic/tclResult.c (ReleaseKeys): Workaround for [Bug 1904907].
+ Reset the return option keys to NULL to allow full re-initialization
+ by GetKeys(). This introduces a memory leak for the key objects, but
+ gets us around a crash in the finalization of reflected channels when
+ handling returns, either at compile- or runtime. In both cases we
+ access the keys after they have been released by their thread exit
+ handler. A proper fix is entangled with the untangling of the
+ finalization ordering and attendant issues. For now we choose the
+ lesser evil.
+
+2008-03-07 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c (Tcl_ExprObj): Revised expression bytecode
+ compiling so that bytecodes invalid due to changing context or due to
+ the difference between expressions and scripts are not reused. [Bug
+ 1899164]
+
+ * generic/tclCmdAH.c: Revised direct evaluation implementation of
+ [expr] so that [expr $e] caches compiled bytecodes for the expression
+ as the intrep of $e.
+
+ * tests/execute.test (execute-6.*): More tests checking that
+ script bytecode is invalidated in the right situations.
+
+2008-03-07 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
+
+ * win/configure.in: Add AC_HEADER_STDC to support msys/win64.
+
+2008-03-06 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ * doc/namespace.n: Minor tidying up. [Bug 1909019]
+
+2008-03-04 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * tests/execute.test (6.3,4): Added tests for [Bug 1899164].
+
+2008-03-03 Reinhard Max <max@suse.de>
+
+ * unix/tclUnixChan.c: Fix mark and space parity on Linux, which uses
+ CMSPAR instead of PAREXT.
+
+2008-03-02 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclNamesp.c (GetNamespaceFromObj):
+ * tests/interp.test (interp-28.2): Spoil the intrep of an nsNameType
+ obj when the reference crosses interpreter boundaries.
+
+2008-02-29 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclResult.c (Tcl_SetReturnOptions): Revised the refcount
+ management of Tcl_SetReturnOptions to become that of a conventional
+ Consumer routine. Thanks to Peter Spjuth for pointing out the
+ difficulties calling Tcl_SetReturnOptions with non-0-count value for
+ options.
+ * generic/tclExecute.c (INST_RETURN_STK): Revised the one caller
+ within Tcl itself which passes a non-0-count value to
+ Tcl_SetReturnOptions().
+
+ * generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_AppendObjToErrorInfo): Revised the
+ refcount management of Tcl_AppendObjToErrorInfo to become that of a
+ conventional Consumer routine. This preserves the ease of use for the
+ overwhelming common callers who pass in a 0-count value, but makes the
+ proper call with a non-0-count value less surprising.
+ * generic/tclEvent.c (TclDefaultBgErrorHandlerObjCmd): Revised the
+ one caller within Tcl itself which passes a non-0-count value to
+ Tcl_AppendObjToErrorInfo().
+
+2008-02-28 Joe English <jenglish@users.sourceforge.net>
+

+ Don't let the second pass lose commandPtr value allocated during the
+ first pass.
+
+ * generic/tclCompExpr.c (ParseExpr): Plug memory leak in error
+ message generation.
+
+ * generic/tclStringObj.c (Tcl_AppendFormatToObj): [format %llx $big]

+
+ * generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileReturnCmd): The 2007-10-18 commit
+ to optimize compiled [return -level 0 $x] [RFE 1794073] introduced a
+ memory leak of the return options dictionary. Fixing that.

+ * library/clock.tcl (::tcl::clock::format, ::tcl::clock::scan,
+ (::tcl::clock::add, ::tcl::clock::LocalizeFormat): Fixed bugs in

+ * tests/clock.test (clock-61.*, clock-62.1): Regression tests for [Bug

+
+ * library/http/pkgIndex.tcl: Set version 2.5.5
