Kenny <kennykb@acm.org> - - * generic/tclDate.c: Regen - * generic/tclGetDate.y (TclDatelex): Fixed a problem where a - four-digit group with >=2 leading zeroes appeared to be a two-digit - group, leading to misinterpreting the time 0012 as 1200. [Bug 1090413] - * library/clock.tcl: Added code to interpret correctly months outside - the range 01-12 as reduced modulo 12 with a corresponding adjustment - to the year. [Bug 1092789] - * tests/clock.test: Added regression test cases for the above two bugs - * unix/Makefile.in: Added --no-lines to the 'bison' command line to - * win/Makefile.in: help constrain the number of diffs in a cvs checkin - -2004-12-24 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net> - - * generic/tclCompile.c: - * generic/tclCompile.h: - * generic/tclExecute.c: - * generic/tclInt.h: - * generic/tclLiteral.c: - * generic/tclProc.c: - Avoid sharing cmdName literals accross namespaces, and generalise - usage of the TclRegisterNewLiteral macro.

TclObjInterpProc() now allocates the - compiledLocals on the tcl execution stack, using the new - TclStackAlloc/Free functions. - -2004-12-16 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk> - - * generic/tclInterp.c (Tcl_LimitSetTime, TimeLimitCallback): - (TclLimitRemoveAllHandlers, TclInitLimitSupport): Set a timer event to - trigger when the time limit runs out. All the time limit actually does - is check to see if the time limit has been exceeded, but this is - enough to fix [Bug 1085023]. - * generic/tclInt.h (struct Interp): Added a field to hold the token - for the timer event handler associated with the current time limit. - * generic/tclEvent.c (Tcl_UpdateObjCmd, Tcl_VwaitObjCmd): Add error - message when limit exceeded. - * tests/interp.test (interp-34.[89]): Check that time limits handle - the two cases reported in [Bug 1085023] - - * generic/tclTimer.c (TclCreateAbsoluteTimerHandler): New internal - function that allows setting a timer handler that will be triggered at - (or after) a specific time instead of at some number of milliseconds - in the future.

Added functions - TclPushStackFrame and TclPopStackFrame that do the work of - Tcl_PushCallFrame and Tcl_PopCallFrame, but using frames allocated in - the execution stack - i.e., heap instead of C-stack. The core uses - these two new functions exclusively; the old ones remain for backwards - compat, as at least two popular extensions (itcl, xotcl) are known to - use them. - -2004-12-14 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net> - - * generic/tclCmdIL.c: - * generic/tclInt.h: - * generic/tclProc.c: - * generic/tclVar.c: changing the isProcCallFrame field of the - CallFrame struct from a 0/1 field to flags. Should be perfectly - backwards compatible. - -2004-12-14 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> - - * unix/configure.in: Added special processing to remove "$U" from - libraries in the LIBOBJS value.

Made - the TclpSetInterfaces call part of TclInitSubsystems so it cannot be - overlooked. - -2004-12-03 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> - - * changes: updated for 8.5a2 release - -2004-12-02 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> - - * generic/tclUtil.c (TclSetProcessGlobalValue): Handle the case where - a ProcessGlobalValue might be assigned to itself. - - * generic/tclEncoding.c (MakeFileMap): Correct refcounting errors - managing values returned by TclPathPart (with refCount of 1!) that led - to a memory leak. [Bug 1077474]. - -2004-12-02 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net> - - * generic/tclPathObj.c: fix and new tests for [Bug 1074671] to ensure - * tests/fileSystem.test: tilde paths are not returned specially by - 'glob'. - -2004-12-02 Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@acm.org> - - * win/Makefile.in: Added a 'sed' in the setting of ROOT_DIR_NATIVE to - compensate for a bug in cygpath (at least version 1.36) that leaves a - trailing backslash on the end of the converted path. - -2004-12-02 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk> - - * generic/tclInterp.c (Alias,Target,Master): Rewrote these so that the - aliases that refer to an interpreter are stored in a list and not a - hashtable (which was only ever a convenience, and forced the use of a - global mutex to generate keys!) [FRQ 1077210] - * generic/tclNamesp.c (numNsCreated): Moved into thread-local storage - to remove a global mutex. [FRQ 1077210] - -2004-12-01 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> - - * generic/tclUtil.c (TclGetProcessGlobalValue): Narrowed the scope of - mutex locks. - - * generic/tclUtil.c: Updated Tcl_GetNameOfExecutable() to - * generic/tclEncoding.c: make use of a ProcessGlobalValue for - * generic/tclEvent.c: storing the executable name. Added - internal routines Tcl(Get|Set)ObjNameOfExecutable() to access that - storage in Tcl_Obj, rather than string format. - - * unix/tclUnixFile.c: Rewrote TclpFindExecutable() to use - * win/tclWinFile.c: TclSetObjNameOfExecutable to store the - executable name it computes. - - * generic/tclInt.h: Added internal stub entries for - * generic/tclInt.decls: TclpFindExecutable and - Tcl(Get|Set)ObjNameOfExecutable. - - * generic/tclIntDecls.h: make genstubs - * generic/tclStubInit.c: - - * generic/tclCmdIL.c: Retrieve executable name in Tcl_Obj form - * win/tclWinPipe.c: instead of string form. - - * unix/tclUnixTest.c: Update [testfindexecutable] command to use new - internal interfaces. - - * generic/tclEncoding.c: Moved TclpSetInitialEncodings() call - from Tcl_FindExecutable() into TclInitEncodingSubsystem(). This is - important on Windows where it establishes whether the "ascii" or - "unicode" set of system routines will be used, and that needs to be - done earlier to support filesystem operations. [Bug 1077005] - -2004-12-01 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk> - - * tests/winDde.test: Rewritten to use tcltest2 features more - thoroughly (reducing the [catch] count!) and fix the problem with - winDde-6.1 being out of synch with the implementation. - -2004-11-30 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> - - * library/init.tcl ([unknown]): Restored the save/restore of the - variables ::errorCode and ::errorInfo. This is needed when the - [::bgerror] command is auto-loaded (as it is by Tk). - - Patch 976520 reworks several of the details involved with - startup/initialization of the Tcl library, focused on the activities - of Tcl_FindExecutable(). - - * generic/tclIO.c: Removed bogus claim in comment that encoding - "iso8859-1" is "built-in" to Tcl. - - * generic/tclInt.h: Created a new struct ProcessGlobalValue, - * generic/tclUtil.c: routines Tcl(Get|Set)ProcessGlobalValue, and - function type TclInitProcessGlobalValueProc. Together, these take care - of the housekeeping for "values" (things that can be held in a - Tcl_Obj) that are global across a whole process. That is, they are - shared among multiple threads, and epoch and mutex protection must - govern the validity of cached copies maintained in each thread. - - * generic/tclNotify.c: Modified TclInitNotifier() to tolerate being - called multiple times in the same thread. - * generic/tclEvent.c: Dropped the unused argv0 argument to - TclInitSubsystems(). Removed machinery to unsure only one - TclInitNotifier() call per thread, now that that is safe. Converted - Tcl(Get|Set)LibraryPath to use a ProcessGlobalValue, and moved them to - tclEncoding.c. - * generic/tclBasic.c: Updated caller. - - * generic/tclInt.h: TclpFindExecutable now returns void. - * unix/tclUnixFile.c: - * win/tclWinFile.c: - * win/tclWinPipe.c: - - * generic/tclEncoding.c: Built new encoding search initialization on a - foundation of ProcessGlobalValues, exposing new routines - Tcl(Get|Set)EncodingSearchPath. A cache of a map from encoding name to - directory pathname keeps track of where encodings are available for - loading. Tcl_FindExecutable greatly simplified into just three - function calls. The "library path" is now misnamed, as its only - remaining purpose is as a foundation for the default encoding search - path. - - * generic/tclInterp.c: Inlined the initScript that is evaluated by - Tcl_Init(). Added verification after initScript evaluation that Tcl - can find its installed *.enc files, and that it has initialized - [encoding system] in agreement with what the environment expects. - [tclInit] no longer driven by the value of $::tcl_libPath; it largely - constructs its own search path now, rather than attempt to share one - with the encoding system. - - * unix/tclUnixInit.c: TclpSetInitialEncodings factored so that a new - * win/tclWinInit.c: routine TclpGetEncodingNameFromEnvironment can - reveal that Tcl thinks the [encoding system] should be, even when an - incomplete encoding search path, or a missing *.enc file won't allow - that initialization to succeed. TclpInitLibraryPath reworked as an - initializer of a ProcessGlobalValue. - - * unix/tclUnixTest.c: Update implementations of [testfindexecutable], - [testgetdefenc], and [testsetdefenc]. - - * tests/unixInit.test: Corrected tests to operate properly even when - a value of TCL_LIBRARY is required to find encodings. - - * generic/tclInt.decls: New internal stubs: TclGetEncodingSearchPath, - TclSetEncodingSearchPath, TclpGetEncodingNameFromEnvironment. These - are candidates for public exposure by future TIPs. - - * generic/tclIntDecls.h: make genstubs - * generic/tclStubInit.c: - - * generic/tclTest.c: Updated [testencoding] to use - * tests/encoding.test: Tcl(Get|Set)EncodingSearchPath. Updated tests. - -2004-11-30 Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@acm.org> - - * library/clock.tcl: Corrected the regular expressions that match a - time zone to allow for time zones specified as +HH or -HH. - * tests/clock.test: Added regression test case for the above issue. - Thanks to Rolf Ade for reporting this issue [http://wiki.tcl.tk/13094] - * win/tclWinDde.c (Tcl_DdeObjCmd): Corrected a typo that caused a - compilation failure on VC++. - -2004-11-29 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com> - - * win/Makefile.in (install-libraries): Brought entry '2004-10-26 Don - Porter (Tcl Modules)' into the windows world, actually the - win/configure buildsystem. The other windows buildsystems (.vc, .bc) - still have to be updated as well. - -2004-11-26 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com> - - * win/tclWinDde.c (ExecuteRemoteObject): Removed bogus semicolon found - at the end of the header for the function definition, terminating it - early and preventing a compile. This is likely a fix for '2004-11-25 - Donal'. I have to conclude that it is also unknown if the other - changes to this file actually pass the testsuite. Running testsuite - ... They don't. winDde-6.1 fails. This is only a message discrepance, - i.e. not too bad. Leaving resolution of that to Pat and Donal. - -2004-11-26 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> - - * library/auto.tcl (tcl_findLibrary): Made sure the uniquifying - operations on the search path does not also normalize. [Bug 1072136] - -2004-11-26 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk> - - * unix/configure.in: Simplify the code to check for correctness of - strstr, strtoul and strtod. - * unix/tcl.m4 (SC_TCL_CHECK_BROKEN_FUNC): Split a complex stanza out - of configure.in into its own function. Also force it to do the right - thing with cacheing of results of AC_TRY_RUN to deal with issue raised - in [Patch 1073524] - - * doc/foreach.n: Added simple example. [FRQ 1073334] - -2004-11-25 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk> - - * generic/tclProc.c (TclObjInterpProc): Make it so that only - * generic/tclIndexObj.c (Tcl_WrongNumArgs): [proc] instances do - * tests/indexObj.test (indexObj-5.7): quoting of their first - arguments, so keeping [Bug 942757] fixed and making [Bug 1066837] be - fixed as well. Done with a load of #ifdef-ery because this hack is so - ugly nobody should keep it around once Itcl's fixed. - -2004-11-25 Reinhard Max <max@suse.de> - - * tests/tcltest.test: The order in which [glob] returns the file names - is undefined, so tests should not depend on it. - -2004-11-25 Zoran Vasiljevic <vasiljevic@users.sf.net> - - * doc/Thread.3: - * doc/Notifier.3: Added changes from the core-8-4-branch - -2004-11-25 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk> - - * doc/dde.n: Synchronized the documentation of the commands with the - header of the docs and what the package actually does. Thanks to - Andreas Kupries for spotting this. - * win/tclWinDde.c (Tcl_DdeObjCmd): Much cleanup of argument parsing - code. - -2004-11-24 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com> - - * generic/tclPort.h: Relative include of tclWinPort.h returned as it - was requiring me set -I$(tcl_root)/win for my extensions that need to - include tclInt.h and doesn't appear to serve any purpose for windows - builds. - -2004-11-24 Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@acm.org> - - * unix/tcl.m4 (SC_ENABLE_THREADS): Corrected bad check for 3-argument - readdir_r [Bug 1001325]. - * unix/configure: Regenerated. - * unix/tclUnixNotfy.c: Corrected all uses of 'select' to manage their - masks using the FD_CLR, FD_ISSET, FD_SET, and FD_ZERO macros rather - than bit-whacking that failed under Solaris-Sparc-64. [Bug 1071807] - * win/tclWinInit.c (TclpInitLibraryPath): Removed unused vars 'pathc' - and 'pathv' that caused compilation problems on VC++ with - --enable-symbols. - -2004-11-24 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> - - * unix/tcl.m4 (SC_ENABLE_THREADS): Corrected failure to determine the - number of arguments for readdir_r on SunOS systems. [Bug 1071701] - - * unix/configure: autoconf-2.57 - - * generic/tclCmdIL.c (InfoVarsCmd): Corrected segfault in new - * tests/info.test (info-19.6): trivial matching branch [Bug 1072654] - -2004-11-24 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk> - - * tools/man2html.tcl, tools/man2html1.tcl: Update to use Tcl 8.4. - * tools/man2html2.tcl: Fix broken .SS handling. - -2004-11-23 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk> - - * unix/Makefile.in: Add (commented-out) code to integrate tclConfig.h - into the dependency tree and 'make distclean'. [Bug 1068171] - - * generic/tclResult.c (Tcl_AppendResultVA): Remove call to - Tcl_GetStringResult to speed up repeated calls to Tcl_AppendResult - with the side effect that code that wants to access interp->result - should always call Tcl_GetStringResult first. See [Patch 1041072] - discussion for more details. - -2004-11-22 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net> - - * unix/configure: Regen. - * unix/tcl.m4 (SC_TCL_64BIT_FLAGS): Define HAVE_TYPE_OFF64_T only when - off64_t, open64(), and lseek64() are defined. IRIX 5.3 is known to not - include an open64 function. [Bug 1030465] - -2004-11-22 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net> - - * unix/configure: Regen. - * unix/tcl.m4 (SC_ENABLE_THREADS): Check for a 2 argument version of - readdir_r that is known to exists under IRIX 5.3. - * unix/tclUnixThrd.c (TclpReaddir): Use either 2 arg or 3 arg version - of readdir_r. [Bug 1001325] - -2004-11-22 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> - - * unix/tclUnixInit.c (TclpInitLibraryPath): Purged dead code that used - * win/tclWinInit.c (TclpInitLibraryPath): to extend the "library - path". Search path construction for init.tcl is now done within the - [tclInit] proc. - * generic/tclInterp.c: Restored several directories to the search - * tests/unixInit.test: path used to locate init.tcl within [tclInit]. - This change does not restore any directories to the encoding search - path, so should still avoid the price of an unreasonably large number - of filesystem accesses during encoding initialization at startup - [Bug 976438] - -2004-11-22 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net> - - * generic/tclPathObj.c: fix and new test for [Bug 1043129] in the - * tests/fileSystem.test: treatment of backslashes in file join on - Windows. - -2004-11-21 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> - - * doc/AddErrInfo.3: Typo corrections (Thanks Daniel South). - * doc/interp.n: - -2004-11-19 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> - - * doc/AddErrInfo.3: Docs for Tcl_(Get|Set)ReturnOptions. [TIP 227] - - * doc/AddErrInfo.3: - * doc/Async.3: Documentation updates to replace references - * doc/BackgdErr.3: to global variable ::errorInfo and ::errorCode - * doc/SaveResult.3: and to the ::bgerror command with references - * doc/after.n: to their preferred replacements, the - * doc/bgerror.n: -errorinfo and -errorcode return options, - * doc/error.n: the Tcl_*InterpState routines, and the - * doc/exec.n: [interp bgerror] command. - * doc/exit.n: - * doc/fileevent.n: - * doc/interp.n: - * doc/return.n: - * doc/tclvars.n: - * doc/update.n: - - * tests/unixInit.test: Removed "knownBug" constraints to prompt bug - fixing before 8.5a2 release. - -2004-11-19 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net> - - * macosx/Makefile: - * unix/configure.in: - * unix/tclUnixInit.c (MacOSXGetLibraryPath): changed detection of tcl - framework build when determining tclLibPath from overloaded - TCL_LIBRARY to configuration define TCL_FRAMEWORK. [Bug 1068088] - - * unix/configure: autoconf-2.57 - * unix/tclConfig.h.in: autoheader-2.57 - -2004-11-18 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> - - * doc/SaveResult.3: Documentation for Tcl_*InterpState (TIP 226). - - * generic/tclEvent.c (HandleBgErrors): Simplified program flow. - - * tests/basic.test: Updated functional (not testing) uses of - * tests/io.test: [bgerror] to make use of [interp bgerror]. - * tests/socket.test: - * tests/timer.test: - - * tests/interp.test (interp-36.*): [interp bgerror] tests. - - * generic/tclInterp.c: Corrected [interp bgerror] error messages. - -2004-11-18 Reinhard Max <max@suse.de> - - * unix/tcl.m4 (SC_CONFIG_MANPAGES): Applied an improved version of - * unix/configure.in: [Patch 996085], that introduces - * unix/Makefile.in: --enable-man-suffix. - - * unix/installManPage: added - * unix/mkLinks.tcl: removed - * unix/mkLinks: removed - * unix/configure: generated - - * unix/Makefile.in: Don't install tclConfig.h . - -2004-11-17 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> - - * unix/configure.in: The change below reveals that the public data - type Tcl_StatBuf relies on config information. For now, disabled the - use of the tclConfig.h file until its full impact on Tcl's interface - can be assessed. - - * unix/configure: autoconf-2.57 - - * generic/tcl.h: Moved the #include "tclConfig.h" out of - * generic/tclInt.h: tcl.h.
