- * generic/tclExecute.c:
- * tests/expr-old.test: Re-wrote Tcl's [expr rand()] and [expr
- srand($seed)] implementations, fixing a range error on some 64-bit
- platforms. Added tests that detect the bug. The rewrite changes the
- seed -> sequence map on 64-bit platforms, only for seed >= 2^31, a
- slight incompatibility. [Bug 121072, Patch 102781]

- * library/init.tcl:
- * library/msgcat/msgcat.tcl:
- * library/msgcat/pkgIndex.tcl:
- * library/opt/optparse.tcl:
- * library/opt/pkgIndex.tcl: Where [uplevel] is used in a proc to
- evaluate a Tcl built-in command in the caller's context, the built-in
- commands are now fully namespace-qualified. This prevents problems
- when the caller context is in a namespace where the built-in command
- name has been used by a command in the namespace. (For example,
- [::ns::set] might be called instead of the intended [::set]). [Bug
- 119422, Patch 102545]
-
-2000-12-09 Jeff Hobbs <jhobbs@interwoven.com>
-
- * win/tclWinTime.c (CalibrationThread): added lint return value to
- prevent compiler warning. [Bug 125005]
-
- * docs/scan.n:
- * tests/scan.test:
- * generic/tclScan.c (Tcl_ScanObjCmd): changed %o and %x to use strtoul
- instead of strtol to correctly preserve scan<>format conversion of
- large integers. [Patch 102663, Bug 124600]
-
- * generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): Commited patch fixing
- handling of {!<boolean>} in expressions. [Patch 102702]
-
-2000-12-08 Jeff Hobbs <jhobbs@interwoven.com>
-
- * library/init.tcl: Added support for PATHEXT variable in auto_execok,
- recognizing the proper set of executable extensions on Windows. [Patch
- 102719]
-
-2000-12-08 Andreas Kupries <a.kupries@westend.com>
-
- * generic/tclEncoding.c (LoadTableEncoding): Changed dangerous code to
- something less critical. This fixes [Bug 119417], part A without
- affecting the speed when loading encodings.
-
-2000-12-08 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
- * doc/open.n: Added xref to fconfigure and advice on the opening of
- binary files. Should help prevent a recurrence of bugs like [Bug
- 124558]
-
-2000-12-07 Jeff Hobbs <jhobbs@interwoven.com>
-
- * generic/tcl.h: added note about need to updated
- library/dde/pkgIndex.tcl with minor version increment.
-
- * library/dde/pkgIndex.tcl: updated to use 84 version to reflect the
- makefile. Should probably be updated to use its real version at some
- point. [Patch 102560, Bug 119421]
-
-2000-12-06 Eric Melski <ericm@ajubasolutions.com>
-
- * generic/tcl.h (attemptckalloc): Fixed typo for #define of
- attemptckalloc (was defined to Tcl_AttempDbCkalloc, should have been
- Tcl_AttemptDbCkalloc). [Bug 124384]
-
- * generic/tclCkalloc.c: Added TCL_MEM_DEBUG versions of
- Tcl_AttemptDbCkrealloc and Tcl_AttemptDbCkalloc. [Bug 124384].
-
-2000-11-24 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
- * generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): Logical negation "!" can
- now handle string booleans, provided those values are placed in
- variables.
-
- * tests/expr.test (expr-13.17): Check that [expr {!$var}] can negate
- the string-versions of booleans "yes", "false", etc.
-
- * library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl (getMatchingFiles,
- (getMatchingDirectories):
- * tools/man2html.tcl (doDir):
- * tools/man2help.tcl (doDir):
- * library/package.tcl (tclPkgUnknown,tclMacPkgSearch):
- * library/safe.tcl (AddSubDirs): [glob] uses -directory instead of
- unsafe [file join]. [Bug 123313]
-
- * generic/tclIndexObj.c:
- * generic/tclTestObj.c (TestindexobjCmd): Changed internal
- representation of index objects to fix [Bug 119082]; fix shouldn't be
- visible to outside world...
-
- * generic/tclTest.c (TestGetIndexFromObjStructObjCmd):
- * tests/indexObj.test: (indexObj-6.*) Added to test for presence of
- [Bug 119082].
-
-2000-11-23 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
-
- * generic/tclCmdIL.c (Tcl_LsortObjCmd): Fixed memory leak from [Bug
- 119398]
-
- * library/init.tcl (unknown): Added specific level parameters to
- all uplevel invokations to boost performance; didn't dare touch
- the "namespace inscope" stuff though, since it looks sensitive
- to me! Should fix [Bug 123217], though testing is tricky...

-
- 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. [Patch 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. [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!) [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. [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. [Bug 119192]
-
-2000-11-03 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@ajubasolutions.com>
-
- * win/.cvsignore: Removed 'configure' from the glob list now that it's
- included.
-
-2000-11-03 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@ajubasolutions.com>
-
- 8.4a2 RELEASE
-
- * unix/Makefile.in (install-libraries, dist):
- * win/makefile.vc (install-libraries):
- * win/Makefile.in (install-libraries): updated to install unversioned
- library directories into versioned directories.
-
- * tools/tcl.wse.in: updated for unversioning of library dirs
-
- * unix/mkLinks: updated mkLinks with latest doc updates
-
- * doc/Tcl_Main.3: added docs for Tcl_SetMainLoop
-
- * generic/tclStubInit.c:
- * generic/tclDecls.h:
- * generic/tcl.decls: added Tcl_SetMainLoop proc that allows people to
- set a main loop that will run for tclsh.
- * generic/tcl.h: added Tcl_MainLoopProc typedef
- * generic/tclMain.c (Tcl_SetMainLoop, StdinProc, Prompt): new
- StdinProc and Prompt static procs and Tcl_SetMainLoop stubs proc. The
- first two handle a fileevent based prompt (taken from tkMain.c).
- Tcl_SetMainLoop enables the interactive setting of a main loop
- procedure. This enables Tk to be a loadable package.
-
-2000-11-02 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@ajubasolutions.com>
-
- * generic/tclEvent.c: tclLibraryPath Tcl_Obj didn't have a way to
- share its data among threads. This caused Tcl_Init() to always fail in
- threads. Added a way to pass the data around with a global char*.
- [BUG: 5301]
-
-2000-11-02 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@ajubasolutions.com>
-
- * unix/configure:
- * unix/dltest/configure:
- * win/configure:
- * tools/configure: checked in configure scripts so people doing CVS
- checkouts aren't required to have autoconf. Changes to configure.in in
- the future will require the corresponding configure script to also be
- re-autoconf'ed and checked in.
-
- * win/makefile.vc:
- * win/tcl.m4: makefile fixes for Win64 support
-
- * generic/tclIndexObj.c (Tcl_GetIndexFromObjStruct): minor cast
- changes.
-
-2000-11-01 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@ajubasolutions.com>
-
- * unix/tcl.m4: removed use of -lbsd and -ldl for AIX-5.
-
- * tests/subst.test: added tests for non-zero return code handling by
- subst.
- * generic/tclParse.c (Tcl_EvalEx): corrected handling of non-zero,
- non-error return code cases for subst. [Bug 119829]
-
- * generic/tclVar.c (TclVarTraceExists): Corrected excessive mem use
- when info exists was called on a non-existent array element. [Bug
- 119213, 119336]
-
-2000-10-30 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@ajubasolutions.com>
-
- * win/configure.in:
- * win/Makefile.in:
- * win/makefile.vc:
- * win/tcl.rc:
- * win/tclsh.rc: Added logic to derive filenames better in the resource
- scripts based on compile options.
-
-2000-10-30 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@ajubasolutions.com>
-
- * unix/tclUnixInit.c: added default encoding map from "ja_JP.eucJP" to
- "euc-jp". (takahashi)
-
- * tests/clock.test: corrected clock-2.* test numbering
-
- * unix/configure.in (SC_TCL_LINK_LIBS): removed code that was
- commented out (it had been moved to tcl.m4's SC_TCL_LINK_LIBS
- already).
-
- * unix/tcl.m4: consolidated gettimeofday check for AIX.
-
-2000-10-27 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@ajubasolutions.com>
-
- * unix/configure.in:
- * unix/tcl.m4: added support for AIX-5.
-
- * generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_NotifyChannel): removed #ifdef around code for
- old channel structures, placed preserve/release around statePtr
- * generic/tclIO.c (CloseChannel): the statePtr for a channel was not
- being freed when the last channel in a stack was freed, causing a mem
- leak.
-
- * unix/tclUnixChan.c: updated channel types to strict
- TCL_CHANNEL_VERSION_2 style to avoid compiler warnings. They work
- either way, but this avoids compiler warnings (that worries people).
-
-2000-10-27 Jennifer Hom <jenn@ajubasolutions.com>
-
- * library/tcltest1.0/tcltest.tcl: Removed a cd into the test directory
- in runAllTests that screwed up the temporary directory setting,
- effectively preventing users from running tests on multiple platforms
- at the same time.
-
-2000-10-26 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@ajubasolutions.com>
-
- * win/tclWinFile.c (TclpMatchFilesTypes): NULL was being set to "attr"
- which was a DWORD. Changed NULL to zero because a 'void *' can't be
- set to a DWORD to avoid the compiler warning.
-
-2000-10-24 Jennifer Hom <jenn@ajubasolutions.com>
-
- * tests/all.tcl: Removed support for tcltest 1.0.
-
- * tests/tcltest.test:
- * library/tcltest1.0/tcltest.tcl:
- * library/tcltest1.0/pkgIndex.tcl:
- * docs/tcltest.n: Moved tcltest2 code so that it's the standard
- version of tcltest. Removed all tcltest2 files (tests/tcltest2.test,
- library/tcltest1.0/tcltest2.tcl, docs/tcltest2.n).
-
-2000-10-20 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@ajubasolutions.com>
-
- * win/tclWinFile.c (TclpMatchFilesTypes): made the stat call only
- occur when necessary (for 'glob' command). Significantly speeds up
- glob command from 8.3. [BUG: 6216]
-
-2000-10-19 Jennifer Hom <jenn@ajubasolutions.com>
-
- * library/tcltest1.0/tcltest2.tcl:
- * tests/tcltest2
- * doc/tcltest2.n: Code and documentation cleanup. Modified -verbose to
- take list of keywords as well as string of letters. Removed Tcl
- version information from tcltest. Removed tcltest::grep from tcltest
- package. Added optional 3rd directory argument to
- makeFile/makeDirectory and removeFile/removeDirectory.
-
- * tests/basic.test: Changed references to tcltest::tclVersion to
- hardcoded numbers.
- * generic/tcl.h: Changed reference to tcltest2.tcl and tcltest.tcl in
- comments to tests/basic.test.
-
-2000-10-06 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@ajubasolutions.com>
-
- * win/tclWinChan.c: moved Win2K bug case test with GetStdHandle() from
- TclpGetDefaultStdChannel into Tcl_MakeFileChannel to enable a more
- general method in detecting invalid OS handles rather than just a
- specific known case. [BUG: 5971]
-
-2000-10-06 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@ajubasolutions.com>
-
- * tests/cmdAH.test: extra tests for 'file channels' that include
- multiple interpreter tests and channel sharing
- * generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_GetChannelNamesEx): corrected function (and
- consequently 'file channels') to return channels that are actually
- registered for this specific interp, rather than this thread.
-
- * doc/CrtChannel.3: fixed spelling mistakes
-
-2000-09-29 Jennifer Hom <jenn@ajubasolutions.com>
-
- * library/tcltest1.0/tcltest2.tcl:
- * tests/tcltest2.test:
- * doc/tcltest2.n: Modified the new form of the test command to accept
- both attribute-value pairs and command line options. Updated the tests
- and the documentation for this new format. Also changed the option
- names for the test command.
-
-2000-09-29 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
-
- * win/tclWinSerial.c (SerialGetOptionProc): corrected reporting of
- space parity on Windows (Eason) [Bug 6057].
-
- * win/Makefile.in: commented use of TESTFLAGS
- * unix/Makefile.in: added TESTFLAGS to test target to conform with
- Windows makefile and TEA style.
-
- * tests/stack.test: prevented possible crash on systems with low
- default stacksize (Tru64, AIX) in infinite recursion test. A solution
- to check remaining stack space in the core is best, but hard to do in
- a cross-platform manner.
-
- * generic/tclIOGT.c (FLUSH_DELAY): renamed DELAY define to FLUSH_DELAY
- to avoid defn conflict using Tru64's cc.
-
-2000-09-28 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@ajubasolutions.com>
-
- * tools/tcl.wse.in: added tclPlatDecls.h and tkPlatDecls.h to the
- Windows .exe install.
-
- * tests/fCmd.test (fCmd-6.20): corrected test to remove c:/tcl8975@
- after creating it.
-
- * tests/fileName.test: cleaned up the testing of glob patterns for
- c:/globTest (Windows) to directly create/remove directory.
-
-2000-09-27 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@ajubasolutions.com>
-
- * generic/tcl.decls:
- * generic/tclIO.c: updated Tcl_IsChannelShared,
- Tcl_IsChannelRegistered, Tcl_CutChannel, Tcl_SpliceChannel,
- Tcl_IsChannelExisting, and Tcl_ClearChannelHandlers to conform to the
- new stacked channel implementation. Their stub slots were also moved
- to give preference to the new 8.3.2 stub functions. This will cause an
- incompatibility with 8.4a1 only.
- (StopCopy): fixed a bug introduced by a partial fix in 8.3.2 that
- didn't set nonBlocking correctly when resetting the flags for the
- write side. [Bug: 6261]
-
- * doc/ChnlStack.3:
- * doc/CrtChannel.3:
- * generic/tcl.decls:
- * generic/tcl.h:
- * generic/tclDecls.h:
- * generic/tclIO.c:
- * generic/tclIO.h:
- * generic/tclIOGT.c:

- * win/tclWinChan.c:
- * win/tclWinConsole.c:
- * win/tclWinPipe.c:
- * win/tclWinSerial.c:
- * win/tclWinSock.c: Up-port of changes made in 8.3.2 to 8.4a2 code
- base. Most of these changes relate to the rewrite of the stacked
- channel implementation, with a few config related fixes.
-
- Following is an asynchronous include of the applicable ChangeLog
- entries from 8.3.2.

- ** START OF ASYNCHRONOUS UP-PORT LOG (8.3.2 -> 8.4a2) **
- ********************************************************
-
-2000-08-07 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
-
- * doc/ChnlStack.3:
- * doc/CrtChannel.3: updated the docs to be aware of the
- TCL_CHANNEL_VERSION_2 style of Tcl channels.
-
- * generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_CreateChannel): added assertion to verify that
- the new channel versioning will be binary compatible with older
- channel drivers.
-
-2000-08-05 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
-
- * generic/tclIOGT.c (TclChannelTransform): fixed segfault that would
- occur when transforming a channel with a proc that did not yet exist.
- (Kupries)
-
- * generic/tclTest.c (TestChannelCmd): added some lint init'ing of
- statePtr and chan vars.
-
-2000-07-26 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
-
- Merged core-8-3-1-io-rewrite back into core-8-3-1-branch. The
- core-8-3-1-io-rewrite branch should now be considered defunct.
-
- * generic/tclStubInit.c:
- * generic/tclDecls.h:
- * generic/tcl.decls:
- * generic/tcl.h:
- * generic/tclIO.c: moved the Tcl_Channel* macros from tcl.h to tclIO.c
- and made them proper stubbed functions. These are: Tcl_ChannelName,
- Tcl_ChannelVersion, Tcl_ChannelBlockModeProc, Tcl_ChannelCloseProc,
- Tcl_ChannelClose2Proc, Tcl_ChannelInputProc, Tcl_ChannelOutputProc,
- Tcl_ChannelSeekProc, Tcl_ChannelSetOptionProc,
- Tcl_ChannelGetOptionProc, Tcl_ChannelWatchProc,
- Tcl_ChannelGetHandleProc, Tcl_ChannelFlushProc, and
- Tcl_ChannelHandlerProc. These should be used to access the
- Tcl_ChannelType structure instead of direct pointer dereferencing.
-
- * tests/iogt.test: added RCS string, marked tests 2.* to be unixOnly
- due to underlying system differences.
-
-2000-07-25 Andreas Kupries <a.kupries@westend.com>
-
- * tests/iogt.test: (line 866f) New tests iogt-6.[01], highlighting
- buffering trouble when stacking and unstacking transformations.
- iogt-6.0 is solved, see the changes below. iogt-6.1 remains, for now,
- due to the perceived complexity of solutions.
-
- * generic/tclIO.h: (line 139f) struct Channel, added a buffer queue,
- to hold data pushed back when stacking a transformation.
-
- * generic/tclIO.c:
- (line 91f, line 7434f) New internal function 'CopyBuffer'. Derived
- from 'CopyAndTranslateBuffer', with translation removed.
- (line 1025f, line 1212f): Initialization of new queue.
- (line 1164f, Tcl_StackChannel): Pushback of input queue.
- (line 1293f, Tcl_UnstackChannel): Discard input and pushback.
- (line 3748f, Tcl_ReadRaw): Modified to use data in the push back area
- before going to the driver. Uses 'CopyBuffer', s.a.
- (line 4702f, GetInput): Modified to use data in the push back area
- before going to the driver.
- (line 4867f, Tcl_Seek): Modified to take pushback of the topmost
- channel in a stack into account.
- (line 5620f, Tcl_InputBuffered): See above. Added
- 'Tcl_ChannelBuffered'. Analog 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. 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.

-
- * 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

- 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.
-

-
- * 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
-

-
- * 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".

- 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)

-
-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/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.

- 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

- 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/msgcat1.0/msgcat.tcl:
- * doc/msgcat.n:

- translations in a single function call, rather than requiring many
- calls to mcset. [RFE: 6000, 5993]. In addition, these patches correct

-2000-05-29 Sandeep Tamhankar <sandeep@scriptics.com>
-
- * tests/http.test
- * doc/http.n
- * library/http2.3/http.tcl: Fixed bug 5741, where unsuccessful geturl
- calls sometimes leaked memory and resources (sockets). Also, switched
- around some of the logic so that http::wait never throws an exception.
- This is because in an asynchronous geturl, the command callback will
- probably end up doing all the error handling anyway, and in an
- asynchronous situation, the user expects to check the state when the
- transaction completes, as opposed to being thrown an exception. For
- the http package, this menas the user can check http::status for
- "error" and http::error for the error message after doing the
- http::wait.

- byte-compiled [string] command. Not all subcommands are implemented;
- those that are not an out-line compiled.
-
- (TclCompileReturnCmd): Byte-compiled implementation of [return]
- command. Only "simple" returns are byte-compiled; in particular, if

-2000-05-02 Andreas Kupries <a.kupries@westend.com>
-
- 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.

- * generic/tclCkalloc.c: Fixed some function headers.
-
- * unix/mkLinks: Regen'd with new mkLinks.tcl.
-
- * unix/mkLinks.tcl: Fixed indentation, made link setup more
- intelligent (only do one existance test per man page, instead of one
- per function).
-
- * doc/library.n: Fixed .SH NAME macro to include each function
- 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.

-2000-04-21 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>

-
-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:

-
- * 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

-
- * unix/tclUnixNotfy.c:
- * generic/tclThreadTest.c: Changed usages of TclFinalizeCondition to

- threads.
-
- * doc/Thread.3: Added description the new API's.

-
- * 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

- 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.

-
-2000-02-09 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

-
- New Files:
- * mac/MW_TclHeader.h:

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

- * tests/autoMkindex.test: Test for fix for bug #2611.
-
- * library/auto.tcl: Fixed the regular expression that performs $
- escaping before sourcing a file to index. It was erroneously adding \
- escapes even to $'s that were already escaped, effectively
- "un-escaping" those $'s. (bug #2611).
-
-2000-01-27 Eric Melski <ericm@scriptics.com>
-
- * tests/autoMkindex.test:
- * library/auto.tcl: Applied patch (with slight modification) from bug

-
-2000-01-27 Jennifer Hom <jenn@scriptics.com>
-
- * library/tcltest1.0/tcltest.tcl: Changed NormalizePath to

- option.
- Fixed bug #1983, dealing with pkg_mkIndex incorrectly handling
- situations with two procs by the same name but in different namespaces
- (ie, foo::baz and bar::baz).
