Kenny <kennykb@acm.org> - - * library/clock.tcl: Continued rationalizing the code, eliminating - numerous redundant [mc] calls. Added another time boost by precompiling - a [::format] command to do the bulk of the work of [clock format]. - -2005-12-01 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk> - - * unix/Makefile.in: Add remaining dependency info. While automated - maintenance of this information would be good, having it at all is much - better than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick... - -2005-12-01 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net> - - * generic/tclClock.c: fix warning. - - * unix/tcl.m4 (Darwin): fix error when MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET unset - * unix/configure: regen. - -2005-11-30 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk> - - * unix/Makefile.in: Add dependency information relating to tclCompile.h - since when the list of opcodes changes it is usually useful to rebuild - everything that depends on it (but which is nonetheless a small - fraction of the total set of Tcl source files). - - ***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY*** for bytecode savers/loaders. See below - - * generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileSwitchCmd): Arrange for very simple - [switch] invokations to be compiled into hash lookups into jump tables; - only a very specific kind of [switch] can be safely compiled this way, - but that happens to be the most common kind. This makes around 5-10% - difference to the speed of execution of clock.test. - * generic/tclExecute.c (TEBC:INST_JUMP_TABLE): New instruction to allow - for jumps to locations looked up in a hashtable. Requires a new AuxData - type, tclJumptableInfoType (supported by the functions DupJumptableInfo - and FreeJumptableInfo in tclCompCmds.c) so anything that saves bytecode - containing this *must* be updated! - -2005-11-30 Kevin Kenny <kennykb@acm.org> - - * generic/tclClock.c: Fixed a bad refcount in previous commit that led - to a corrupted heap. Also silenced a warning that some compilers gave - about the excessively long constant for JULIAN_SEC_POSIX_EPOCH. Also - fixed a bug where [clock format] would fail in the :localtime zone for - times before the Posix Epoch. Thanks to Miguel Sofer for pointing out - all of these. Also rationalized the code a little bit by moving parts - of [clock scan] into C, eliminating some code that was duplicated in - the C and Tcl layers. - -2005-11-29 Kevin Kenny <kennykb@acm.org> - - * generic/tclBasic.c: Moved a big part of [clock format] down - * generic/tclClock.c: to the C level in order to make it go faster. - * generic/tclInt.h: Preliminary measurements suggest that it - * generic/clock.tcl: more than doubles in speed with this change. - -2005-11-29 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk> - - * generic/tclCmdIL.c (Tcl_LsearchObjCmd): Allow [lsearch -regexp] to - process REs that contain backreferences. This expensive mode of - operation is only used if the RE would otherwise cause a compilation - failure. [Bug 1366683] - -2005-11-28 Kevin Kenny <kennykb@acm.org> - - * tools/tclZIC.tcl (convertTimeOfDay): Corrected a typo that caused - wrong DST transitions in any time zone where the transition is - specified as local Standard Time (as opposed to wall-clock or UTC). - (Also updated the code to be bignum-safe.) - * tests/clock.test (clock-51.1): Added regression test for the above. - * library/tzdata: Updated to Olson's 'tzdata2005o' (changes for Cuba, - Nicaragua, Jordan, and Georgia) and regenerated. Thanks to Paul - Mackerras for reporting this problem. - -2005-11-27 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net> - - * unix/tcl.m4 (Darwin): add 64bit support, check for Tiger copyfile(), - add CFLAGS to SHLIB_LD to support passing -isysroot in env(CFLAGS) to - configure (flag can't be present twice, so can't be in both CFLAGS and - LDFLAGS during configure), don't use -prebind when deploying on 10.4, - define TCL_IO_TRACK_OS_FOR_DRIVER_WITH_BAD_BLOCKING (rdar://3171542). - (SC_ENABLE_LANGINFO, SC_TIME_HANDLER): add/fix caching, fix obsolete - autoconf macros. Sync with tk/unix/tcl.m4. - - * unix/configure.in: fix obsolete autoconf macros, sync gratuitous - formatting/ordering differences with tk/unix/configure.in. - - * unix/Makefile.in: add CFLAGS to tclsh/tcltest link to make executable - linking the same as during configure (needed to avoid losing any linker - relevant flags in CFLAGS, in particular flags that cannot be in - LDFLAGS). Avoid concurrent linking of tclsh and compiling of - tclTestInit.o or xtTestInit.o during parallel make. - (checkstubs, checkdoc, checkexports): dependency and Darwin fixes - (dist): add new macosx files. - - * unix/tclLoadDyld.c (TclpDlopen): use NSADDIMAGE_OPTION_WITH_SEARCHING - on second NSAddImage only.

The test is still marked as knownbug, pending - resolution of what is actually the correct return value ([Bug - 1354540]) - -2005-11-09 Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@acm.org> - - * generic/tclTimer.c: Changed [after] so that it behaves correctly - * tests/timer.test: with negative arguments [Bug 1350293] and - arguments that overflow a 32-bit word. [Bug 1350291] - -2005-11-08 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> - - * tests/compile.test: Updated tests with changed behavior - * tests/execute.test: due to addition of bignums. - * tests/expr-old.test: - * tests/expr.test: - * tests/parseExpr.test: - * tests/platform.test: - * tests/string.test: - -2005-11-08 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> - - * unix/tclUnixFCmd.c (MAX_READDIR_UNLINK_THRESHOLD): reduce to 130 - based on errors seen on OS X 10.3 with lots of links in a dir. - [Bug 1034337 followup] - -2005-11-09 Donal K.

[Bug 1162286]. - -2005-11-08 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk> - - * generic/tclTrace.c (TraceVarEx): Factor out heart of Tcl_TraceVar2 - (TclTraceVariableObjCmd,TraceVarProc): Use the new internal API to - arrange for the clientData to be cleaned up at the same time as the - rest of the main trace record. This simplifies the code a bit at the - same time. - -2005-11-07 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net> - - * tests/trace.test (trace-13.2-4): added tests to detect leak, see [Bug - 1348775].
