Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net> - - * generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileTryCmd, IssueTryInstructions) - (IssueTryFinallyInstructions): Added compiler for the [try] command. - It is split into three pieces that handle the parsing of the tokens, - the issuing of instructions for finally-free [try], and the issuing of - instructions for [try] with finally; there are enough differences - between the all cases that it was easier to split the code rather than - have a single function do the whole thing. - -2010-02-09 Alexandre Ferrieux <ferrieux@users.sourceforge.net> - - * tools/genStubs.tcl: Remove dependency on 8.5+ idiom "in" in - expressions. - -2010-02-08 Donal K.

Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net> - - * generic/tclHash.c (HashStringKey): Replace Tcl's crusty old hash - * generic/tclObj.c (TclHashObjKey): function with the algorithm - due to Fowler, Noll and Vo. This is slightly faster (assuming the - presence of hardware multiply) and has somewhat better distribution - properties of the resulting hash values. Note that we only ever used - the 32-bit version of the FNV algorithm; Tcl's core hash engine - assumes that hash values are simple unsigned ints. - - ***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY*** - Code that depends on hash iteration order (especially tests) may well - be disrupted by this. Where a definite order is required, the fix is - usually to just sort the results after extracting them from the hash. - Where this is insufficient, the code that has ceased working was - always wrong and was only working by chance. - -2010-02-05 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net> - - * generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileErrorCmd): Added compilation of the - [error] command.

This - is because it doesn't require an additional memory allocation during - object creation. Also reduced the amount of string manipulation - performed during object creation to further streamline memory - handling; this is not backported to the 8.5 package as it breaks a - number of abstractions. - - * generic/tclOOBasic.c (TclOO_Object_Destroy): [Bug 2944404]: Do not - crash when a destructor deletes the object that is executing that - destructor. - -2010-02-01 Donal K.

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 part could be optimized - more by using more memory to keep all possibilities which occur - around, or by just adjusting the location information instead of a - total recompile. - - Reworked the handling of literal command arguments in bytecode to be - saved (compiler) and used (execution) per command (See the - TCL_INVOKE_STK* instructions), and not per the whole bytecode. This, - and the previous change remove the problems with location data caused - by literal sharing (across whole files, but also proc bodies). - Simplified the associated datastructures (ExtIndex is gone, as is the - function EnterCmdWordIndex). - - The last change causes the hashtable 'lineLABCPtr' to be state which - has to be kept per coroutine, like the CmdFrame stack. Reworked the - coroutine support code to create, delete and switch the information as - needed. Further reworked the tailcall command as well, it has to pop - its own arguments when run in a bytecode context to keep a proper - stack in 'lineLABCPtr'. - - Fixed the mishandling of line information in the NRE-enabled 'for' and - 'while' commands introduced when both were made to share their - iteration callbacks without taking into account that the loop body is - found in different words of the command. Introduced a separate data - structure to hold all the callback information, as we went over the - limit of 4 direct client-data values for NRE callbacks. - - The above fixes [Bug 1605269]. - -2009-07-12 Donal K.
