+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/tclInt.h (PendingObjData,TclFreeObjMacro,etc): 
-	* generic/tclObj.c (TclFreeObj): Added scheme for making TclFreeObj()
-	avoid blowing up the C stack when freeing up very large object
-	trees. [Bug 886231]
+2013-09-19  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
 
-	* win/tclWinInit.c (SetDefaultLibraryDir): Fix logic, simplify and
-	add comments.
+	*** 8.6.1 TAGGED FOR RELEASE ***
 
-2004-06-17  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+	* generic/tcl.h:	Bump version number to 8.6.1.
+	* library/init.tcl:
+	* unix/configure.in:
+	* win/configure.in:
+	* unix/tcl.spec:
+	* README:
 
-	* generic/tclObj.c:	Added missing space in panic message.
+	* unix/configure:	autoconf-2.59
+	* win/configure:
 
-	* win/tclWinInit.c:	Inform [tclInit] about the default library
-	directory via the ::tclDefaultLibrary variable.  This should correct
-	a problem with my 2004-06-11 commit.  Better solutions still in the
-	works.  Thanks to Joe Mistachkin for pointing out the breakage.
+2013-09-19  Donal Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
 
-2004-06-16  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+	* doc/next.n (METHOD SEARCH ORDER): Bug [3606943]: Corrected
+	description of method search order.
 
-	* doc/library.n:	Moved variables ::auto_oldpath and
-	* library/auto.tcl:	::unknown_pending into ::tcl namespace.
-	* library/init.tcl:	[Bugs 808319, 948794]
+2013-09-18  Donal Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
 
-2004-06-15  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
+	Bump TclOO version to 1.0.1 for release.
 
-	* doc/binary.n: Added some notes to the documentation of the 'a'
-	format to address the point raised in [RFE 768852].
+2013-09-17  Donal Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
 
-2004-06-15  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
+	* 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.
 
-	* unix/tclConfig.sh.in (TCL_EXTRA_CFLAGS): set to @CFLAGS@, which
-	is the configure-time CFLAGS. Addendum to m4 change on 2004-05-26.
+2013-09-09  Donal Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
 
-2004-06-14  Kevin Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
+	* 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.
 
-	* win/Makefile.in: Corrected compilation flags for tclPkgConfig.c
-	so that it doesn't require Stubs.
-	* generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_CreateInterp): Removed comment stating
-	that TclInitEmbeddedConfigurationInformation needs Stubs; with the
-	change above, the comment is now erroneous.
-

+2013-09-01  Donal Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
 
-	* doc/Encoding.3:	Removed bogus claims about tcl_libPath.

+	whitespace at the end of a string don't cause the decoder to drop the
+	last decoded byte.
 
-	* generic/tclInterp.c (Tcl_Init):	Stopped setting the
-	tcl_libPath variable.  [tclInit] can get all its directories
-	without it.
+2013-08-03  Donal Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
 
-	* tests/unixInit.test:	Modified test code that made use of
-	tcl_libPath variable.
+	* library/auto.tcl: [Patch 3611643]: Allow TclOO classes to be found
+	by the autoloading mechanism.
 
-	* unix/tclUnixInit.c:	Stopped setting the tclDefaultLibrary variable,
-	execept on the Mac OS X platform with HAVE_CFBUNDLE.  In that
-	configuration we should seek some way to make use of the TIP 59
-	facilities and get rid of that usage of tclDefaultLibrary as well.
+2013-08-02  Donal Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
 
-	* generic/tclInterp.c:	Updated [tclInit] to make $env(TCL_LIBRARY) an

+
+2013-06-09  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclCompCmdsSZ.c (TclCompileTryCmd): [Bug 779d38b996]:
+	Rewrote the [try] compiler to generate better code in some cases and
+	to behave correctly in others; when an error happens during the
+	processing of an exception-trap clause or a finally clause, the
+	*original* return options are now captured in a -during option, even
+	when fully compiled.
+
+2013-06-05  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclExecute.c (INST_EXPAND_DROP): [Bugs 2835313, 3614226]:
+	New opcode to allow resetting the stack to get rid of an expansion,
+	restoring the stack to a known state in the process.
+	* generic/tclCompile.c, generic/tclCompCmds.c: Adjusted the compilers
+	for [break] and [continue] to get stack cleanup right in the majority
+	of cases.
+	* tests/for.test (for-7.*): Set of tests for these evil cases.
+
+2013-06-04  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+	* unix/tcl.m4: Eliminate NO_VIZ macro as current zlib uses HAVE_HIDDEN
+	instead. One more last-moment fix for FreeBSD by Pietro Cerutti
+
+2013-06-03  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclExecute.c: fix for perf bug detected by Kieran
+	(https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!topic/comp.lang.tcl/vfpI3bc-DkQ),
+	diagnosed by dgp to be a close relative of [Bug 781585], which was
+	fixed by commit	[f46fb50cb3]. This bug was introduced by myself in
+	commit [cbfe055d8c].
+
+2013-06-03  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileBreakCmd, TclCompileContinueCmd):
+	Added code to allow [break] and [continue] to be issued as a jump (in
+	the most common cases) rather than using the more expensive exception
+	processing path in the bytecode engine. [Bug 3614226]: Partial fix for
+	the issues relating to cleaning up the stack when dealing with [break]
+	and [continue].
+
+2013-05-27 Harald Oehlmann  <oehhar@users.sf.net>
+
+	* library/msgcat/msgcat.tcl: [Bug 3036566]: Also get locale from

+	Bumped msgcat version to 1.5.2
+
+2013-05-22  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
+
+	* tclCompile.c: Removed duplicate const qualifier causing the HP
+	native cc to error out.
+
+2013-05-22  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclUtf.c (TclUtfCasecmp): [Bug 3613609]: Replace problematic
+	uses of strcasecmp with a proper UTF-8-aware version. Affects both
+	[lsearch -nocase] and [lsort -nocase].
+
+2013-05-22  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+	* doc/file.n: [Bug 3613671]: Added note to portability section on the
+	fact that [file owned] does not produce useful results on Windows.
+
+2013-05-20  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+	* unix/tclUnixFCmd.c (DefaultTempDir): [Bug 3613567]: Corrected logic
+	for checking return code of access() system call, which was inverted.
+
+2013-05-19  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+	* unix/tcl.m4:     Fix for FreeBSD, and remove support for older
+	* unix/configure:  FreeBSD versions. Patch by Pietro Cerutti.
+
+2013-05-18  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclCompCmdsGR.c: Split tclCompCmds.c again to keep size of
+	code down.
+
+2013-05-16  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclBasic.c: Add panic in order to detect incompatible
+	mingw32 sys/stat.h and sys/time.h headers.
+
+2013-05-13  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+	* compat/zlib/*: Upgrade to zlib 1.2.8
+
+2013-05-10  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+	Optimizations and general bytecode generation improvements.
+	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileAppendCmd, TclCompileLappendCmd):
+	(TclCompileReturnCmd): Make these generate bytecode in more cases.
+	(TclCompileListCmd): Make this able to push a literal when it can.
+	* generic/tclCompile.c (TclSetByteCodeFromAny, PeepholeOptimize):
+	Added checks to see if we can apply some simple cross-command-boundary
+	optimizations, and defined a small number of such optimizations.
+	(TclCompileScript): Added the special ability to compile the list
+	command with expansion ([list {*}blah]) into bytecode that does not
+	call an external command.
+
+2013-05-06  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclStubInit.c: Add support for Cygwin64, which has a 64-bit
+	* generic/tclDecls.h: "long" type. Binary compatibility with win64
+	requires that all stub entries use 32-bit long's, therefore the need
+	for various wrapper functions/macros. For Tcl 9 a better solution is
+	needed, but that cannot be done without introducing binary
+	incompatibility.
+
+2013-04-30  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
+
+	* library/platform/platform.tcl (::platform::LibcVersion):
+	* library/platform/pkgIndex.tcl: Followup to the 2013-01-30 change.
+	The RE become too restrictive again. SuSe added a timestamp after the
+	version. Loosened up a bit. Bumped package to version 1.0.12.
+
+2013-04-29  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileArraySetCmd): Generate better code
+	when the list of things to set is a literal.
+
+2013-04-25  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclDecls.h: Implement Tcl_NewBooleanObj, Tcl_DbNewBooleanObj
+	and Tcl_SetBooleanObj as macros using Tcl_NewIntObj, Tcl_DbNewLongObj
+	and Tcl_SetIntObj. Starting with Tcl 8.5, this is exactly the same, it
+	only eliminates code duplication.
+	* generic/tclInt.h: Eliminate use of NO_WIDE_TYPE everywhere: It's
+	exactly the same as TCL_WIDE_INT_IS_LONG
+
+2013-04-19  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclDecls.h: Implement many Tcl_*Var* functions and
+	Tcl_GetIndexFromObj as (faster/stack-saving) macros around resp their
+	Tcl_*Var*2 equivalent and Tcl_GetIndexFromObjStruct.
+
+2013-04-12  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclDecls.h: Implement Tcl_Pkg* functions as
+	(faster/stack-saving) macros around Tcl_Pkg*Ex functions.
+
+2013-04-08  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* generic/regc_color.c:	[Bug 3610026]: Stop crash when the number of
+	* generic/regerrs.h:	"colors" in a regular expression overflows a
+	* generic/regex.h:	short int.  Thanks to Heikki Linnakangas for
+	* generic/regguts.h:	the report and the patch.
+	* tests/regexp.test:
+
+2013-04-04  Reinhard Max  <max@suse.de>
+
+	* library/http/http.tcl (http::geturl): Allow URLs that don't have a
+	path, but a query query, e.g. http://example.com?foo=bar
+	* Bump the http package to 2.8.7.
+

+
+	Align the [string trim] and [string is space] commands, such that
+	[string trim] by default trims all characters for which [string is
+	space] returns 1, augmented with the NUL character.
+
+	* generic/tclUtf.c: Add NEL, BOM and two more characters to [string is

+	* generic/regc_locale.c: Regexp engine must match [string is space]
+	* doc/string.n
+	* tests/string.test
 	***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
-	Attempts to directly run ./tclsh or ./tcltest out of a build
-	directory will either fail, or will make use of an installed
-	script library in preference to the one in the source tree.
-	Use `make shell` or `make runtest` instead.
+	Code that relied on characters not previously trimmed being not
+	removed will notice a difference; it is believed that this is rare,
+	but a workaround to get the behavior in Tcl 8.5 is to use " \t\n\r" as
+	an explicit trim set.

-
-	* generic/tclNamesp.c (Tcl_FindNamespaceVar): [Bug 959052] fixed,

-	* generic/tclVar.c (TclLookupSimpleVar): comments re [Bug 736729] 
-	(predecessor of [Bug 959052]) removed.
-	* tests/namespace.test: added tests 17.10-12 
-	
-	The patch modifies non-documented behaviour, and passes every test
-	in the testsuite. However, scripts relying on the old behaviour
-	may break.
-	Note that the only behaviour change concerns the creative writing
-	of unset variables. More precisely, which variable will be created
-	when neither a namespace variable nor a global variable by that
-	name exists, as defined by [info vars]. The new behaviour is that
-	the namespace resolution process deems a variable to exist exactly
-	when [info vars] finds it - ie, either it has value, or else it
-	was "fixed" by a call to [variable].
-	Note: this patch was removed on 2002-05-25.

-	("VAR ref absolute" benchmark down to 66 ms, from 230).

-
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): reorganised TEBC
-	automatic variables, defining them in tight blocks instead of at
-	the function level. This has three purposes:
-	- it simplifies the analysis of individual instructions
-	- it is preliminary work to the non-recursive engine
-	- it allows a better register allocation by the optimiser; under
-	gcc3.3, this results in up to 10% runtime in some tests

-	Patch 922727 committed.  Implements three changes:
+2011-09-27  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
 
-	* generic/tclInt.h:	Reworked the Tcl header files into a clean
-	* unix/tclUnixPort.h:	hierarchy where tcl.h < tclPort.h < tclInt.h 
-	* win/tclWinInt.h:	and every C source file should #include
-	* win/tclWinPort.h:	at most one of those files to satisfy its
-	declaration needs.  tclWinInt.h and tclWinPort.h also better organized
-	so that tclWinPort.h includes the Windows implementation of
-	cross-platform declarations, while tclWinInt.h makes declarations that
-	are available on Windows only.
+	* generic/tclIndexObj.c (Tcl_ParseArgsObjv): [Bug 3413857]: Corrected
+	the memory management for the code parsing arguments when returning
+	"large" numbers of arguments. Also unbroke the TCL_ARGV_AUTO_REST
+	macro in passing.
 
-	* generic/tclBinary.c (TCL_NO_MATH):	Deleted the generic/tclMath.h
-	* generic/tclMath.h (removed):		header file. The internal Tcl
-	* macosx/Makefile (PRIVATE_HEADERS):	header, tclInt.h, has a
-	* win/tcl.dsp:				#include <math.h> directly,
-	and file external to Tcl needing libm should do the same.
+2011-09-26  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
 
-	* win/Makefile.in (WIN_OBJS):	Deleted the win/tclWinMtherr.c file.
-	* win/makefile.bc (TCLOBJS):	It's a vestige from matherr() days
-	* win/makefile.vc (TCLOBJS):	gone by.
-	* win/tcl.dsp:
-	* win/tclWinMtherr.c (removed):
+	* generic/tclCmdAH.c (TclMakeFileCommandSafe): [Bug 3211758]: Also
+	make the main [file] command hidden by default in safe interpreters,
+	because that's what existing code expects. This will reduce the amount
+	which the code breaks, but not necessarily eliminate it...
 
-	End Patch 922727.
+2011-09-23  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
 
-	* tests/unixInit.test (unixInit-3.1):	Default encoding on Darwin
-	systems is utf-8.  Thanks to Steven Abner (tauvan).  [Bug 928808]
+	* generic/tclIORTrans.c: More revisions to get finalization of
+	ReflectedTransforms correct, including adopting a "dead" field as was
+	done in tclIORChan.c.
 
-2004-04-06  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
+	* tests/thread.test:	Stop using the deprecated thread management
+	commands of the tcltest package.  The test suite ought to provide
+	these tools for itself.  They do not belong in a testing harness.
 
-	* tests/cmdAH.test (cmdAH-18.2): Added constraint because
-	access(...,X_OK) is defined to be permitted to be meaningless when
-	running as root, and OSX exhibits this.  [Bug 929892]

+	data structures even when the thread exits for reasons other than the
+	[testthread exit] command.
 
-	* tests/tcltest.test: Corrected constraint typos: "nonRoot" ->

-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c:	 Fix to privately reported vfs bug with
-	'glob -type d -dir . *' across a vfs boundary.	No tests for
-	this are currently possible without effectively moving tclvfs
-	into Tcl's test suite.
+2011-09-20  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
 
-2004-03-31  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+	* generic/tclIORChan.c: Re-using the "interp" field to signal a dead
+	channel (via NULL value) interfered with conditional cleanup tasks
+	testing for "the right interp". Added a new field "dead" to perform
+	the dead channel signalling task so the corrupted logic is avoided.
 
-	* doc/msgcat.n:	Clarified message catalog file encodings. [Bug 811457]
-	* library/msgcat/msgcat.tcl:	
-	Updated internals to make use of [dict]s to store message catalog
-	data and to use [source -encoding utf-8] to access catalog files.
-	Thanks to Michael Sclenker.  [Patch 875055, RFE 811459]
-        Corrected [mcset] to be able to successfully set a translation to
-        the empty string.  [mcset $loc $src {}] was incorrectly set the
-        $loc translation of $src back to $src.  Also changed [ConvertLocale]
-        to minimally require a non-empty "language" part in the locale value.
-        If not, an error raised prompts [Init] to keep looking for a valid
-        locale value, or ultimately fall back on the "C" locale. [Bug 811461].
-	* library/msgcat/pkgIndex.tcl:	Bump to msgcat 1.4.1.  
+	* generic/tclIORTrans.c: Revised ReflectClose() and
+	FreeReflectedTransform() so that we stop leaking ReflectedTransforms,
+	yet free all Tcl_Obj values in the same thread that alloced them.

-	* generic/tclLiteral.c (HashString): Applied logic from HashObjKey.
-	* generic/tclObj.c (HashObjKey): Rewrote to fix fault which hashed

+	stops most memory leaks.
 
-2004-03-30  Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+	* tests/thread.test:	Plug most memory leaks in thread.test.
+	Constrain the rest to be skipped during `make valgrind'.  Tests using
+	the [testthread cancel] testing command are leaky.  Corrections wait
+	for either addition of [thread::cancel] to the Thread package, or
+	improvements to the [testthread] testing command to make leak-free
+	versions of these tests possible.
 
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TEBC): reverting to the previous method
-	for async tests in TEBC, as the new method turned out to be too
-	costly. Async tests now run every 64 instructions.
+	* generic/tclIORChan.c:	Plug all memory leaks in ioCmd.test exposed

-2004-03-30  Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>

-	* generic/tclCompile.c:     New instruction code INST_START_CMD
-	* generic/tclCompile.h:     that allows checking the bytecode's
-	* generic/tclExecute.c:     validity [Bug 729692] and the interp's
-	* tests/interp.test (18.9): readyness [Bug 495830] before running
-	* tests/proc.test (7.1):    the command. It also changes the

+
+	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c:	Revised TclFindElement() interface. The final
+	* generic/tclDictObj.c:	argument had been bracePtr, the address of a
+	* generic/tclListObj.c:	boolean var, where the caller can be told
+	* generic/tclParse.c:	whether or not the parsed list element was
+	* generic/tclUtil.c:	enclosed in braces.  In practice, no callers
+	really care about that.  What the callers really want to know is
+	whether the list element value exists as a literal substring of the
+	string being parsed, or whether a call to TclCopyAndCollpase() is
+	needed to produce the list element value.  Now the final argument is
+	changed to do what callers actually need. This is a better fit for the
+	calls in tclParse.c, where now a good deal of post-processing checking
+	for "naked backslashes" is no longer necessary.
+	***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
+	For any callers calling in via the internal stubs table who really do
+	use the final argument explicitly to check for the enclosing brace
+	scenario.  Simply looking for the braces where they must be is the
+	revision available to those callers, and it will backport cleanly.
+
+	* tests/parse.test:	Tests for expanded literals quoting detection.
+
+	* generic/tclCompCmdsSZ.c:	New TclFindElement() is also a better
+	fit for the [switch] compiler.
+
+	* generic/tclInt.h:	Replace TclCountSpaceRuns() with

-2004-01-18  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclCompile.c, generic/tclCompile.h: Two new opcodes,
-	INST_LIST_INDEX_IMM and INST_LIST_RANGE_IMM, that have operand(s)
-	of new type OPERAND_IDX4 which represents indexes into things like
-	lists (and perhaps other things eventually.)
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): Implementation of the
-	new opcodes.  INST_LIST_INDEX_IMM does a simple [lindex] with
-	either front- or end-based simple indexing.  INST_LIST_RANGE_IMM
-	does an [lrange] with front- or end-based simple indexing for both
-	the reference to the first and last items in the range.
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileLassignCmd): Generate bytecode
-	for the [lassign] command.
-
-2004-01-17  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* win/tclWinInit.c:  added #pragma comment(lib, "advapi32.lib")
-	when compiling under VC++ so we don't need to specify it
-	when linking.
-
-2004-01-17  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclCmdIL.c (Tcl_LassignObjCmd): Add more shimmering
-	protection for when the list is also one of the variables.
-
-	BASIC IMPLEMENTATION OF TIP#57
-	* generic/tclCmdIL.c (Tcl_LassignObjCmd): Implementation of the
-	[lassign] command that takes full advantage of Tcl's object API.
-	* doc/lassign.n: New file documenting the command.
-	* tests/cmdIL.test (cmdIL-6.*): Test suite for the command.
-
-2004-01-15  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* win/tclWinReg.c:  Placed the requirement for advapi.lib into
-	the object file itself with #paragma comment (lib, ...) when
-	built with VC++.  This will simplify linking for users of the
-	static library.
-
-	* win/rules.vc:  Added new 'fullwarn' to the CHECKS commandline
-	macro; sets $(FULLWARNINGS).
-
-	* win/makefile.vc:  Removed 'advapi.lib' from $(baselibs).
-	Added new logic to crank-up the warning levels for both compile
-	and link when $(FULLWARNINGS) is set.  Some clean-up with how
-	the resource files are built and how -DTCL_USE_STATIC_PACKAGES
-	is sent when compiling the shells.
-
-	* win/tclAppInit.c: Small change in how TCL_USE_STATIC_PACKAGES
-	is used.
-
-	* win/tcl.rc:
-	* win/tclsh.rc: Some clean-up with how the resource files are
-	built.  Fixed 'OriginalFilename' problem that still thought

-
-	* generic/tclDictObj.c (TraceDictPath, DictExistsCmd): Adjusted
-	behaviour of [dict exists] so a failure to look up a dictionary
-	along the path of dicts doesn't trigger an error.  This is how it
-	was documented to behave previously...  [Bug 871387]
-
-	* generic/tclDictObj.c: Assorted dict fixes from Peter Spjuth
-	relating to [Bug 876170].
-	(SetDictFromAny): Make sure that lists retain their ordering even
-	when converted to dictionaries and back.
-	(TraceDictPath): Correct object reference count handling!
-	(DictReplaceCmd, DictRemoveCmd): Stop object leak.
-	(DictIncrCmd,DictLappendCmd,DictAppendCmd,DictSetCmd,DictUnsetCmd): 
-	Simpler handling of reference counts when assigning to variables.
-	* tests/dict.test (dict-19.2): Memory leak stress test
-
-2004-01-13  Don Porter	<dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_SwitchObjCmd):  Silence compiler warnings.
-
-	Patch 876451: restores performance of [return].  Also allows forms
-	such as [return -code error $msg] to be bytecompiled.
-
-	* generic/tclInt.h:	Factored Tcl_ReturnObjCmd() into two pieces:
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c:	TclMergeReturnOptions(), which can parse the
-	options to [return], check their validity, and create the
-	corresponding return options dictionary, and TclProcessReturn(),
-	which takes that return options dictionary and performs the
-	[return] operation.
-
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c:	Rewrote TclCompileReturnCmd() to
-	call TclMergeReturnOptions() at compile time so the return options
-	dictionary is computed at compile time (when it is fully known).
-	The dictionary is pushed on the stack along with the result, and
-	the code and level values are included in the bytecode as operands.
-	Also supports optimized compilation of un-[catch]ed [return]s from
-	procs with default options into the INST_DONE instruction.
-	
-	* generic/tclExecute.c:	Rewrote INST_RETURN instruction to retrieve
-	the code and level operands, pop the return options from the stack,
-	and call TclProcessReturn() to perform the [return] operation.
-
-	* generic/tclCompile.h:	New utilities include TclEmitInt4 macro
-	* generic/tclCompile.c:	and TclWordKnownAtCompileTime().
-	
-	End Patch 876451.
-
-	* generic/tclFileName.c (Tcl_GlobObjCmd):  Latest changes to
-	management of the interp result by Tcl_GetIndexFromObj() exposed
-	improper interp result management in the [glob] command procedure.
-	Corrected by adopting the Tcl_SetObjResult(Tcl_NewStringObj) pattern.
-	This stopped a segfault in test filename-11.36. [Bug 877677]
-
-2004-01-13  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
-	* generic/tclIndexObj.c (Tcl_GetIndexFromObjStruct, Tcl_WrongNumArgs):
-	Create fresh objects instead of using the one currently in the
-	interpreter, which isn't guaranteed to be fresh and unshared. The
-	cost for the core will be minimal because of the object cache, and
-	this fixes [Bug 875395].

-
-2004-01-12  Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCompExpr.c (CompileLandOrLorExpr): new logic, fewer
-	instructions. As a side effect, the instructions INST_LOR and
-	INST_LAND are now never used.
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (INST_JUMP*): small optimisation; fix a

-
-2004-01-11  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>

-2004-01-09  David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
-	* generic/tcl.h: Renamed and deprecated #defines moved to within
-	the #ifndef TCL_NO_DEPRECATED block.  This allows us to build Tcl
-	to check for deprecated functions in use, such as panic() and
-	Tcl_Ckalloc().  By request from DKF.  Extensions that build
-	with -DTCL_NO_DEPRECATED now have these macros as restricted.
-	***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
+	* generic/tclMain.c: Added missing conditional on _WIN32 around code

+
+	[dogeen-assembler-branch]
+
+	* tests/assemble.test: Added more "white box" tests.
+	* generic/tclAssembly.c: Added the error checking and reporting
+	for undefined labels. Revised code so that no pointers into the
+	bytecode sequence are held (because the sequence can move!),
+	that no Tcl_HashEntry pointers are held (because the hash table
+	doesn't guarantee their stability!) and to eliminate the BBHash
+	table, which is merely additional information indexed by jump
+	labels and can just as easily be held in the 'label' structure.
+	Renamed shared structures to CamelCase, and renamed 'label' to
+	JumpLabel because other types of labels may eventually be possible.
+
+2010-09-27  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
+
+	[dogeen-assembler-branch]
+
+	* tests/assemble.test: Added more "white box" tests.
+	* generic/tclAssembly.c: Fixed bugs exposed by the new tests.
+	(a) [eval] and [expr] had incorrect stack balance computed if
+	the arg was not a simple word. (b) [concat] accepted a negative
+	operand count. (c) [invoke] accepted a zero or negative operand
+	count. (d) more misspelt error messages.
+	Also replaced a funky NRCallTEBC with the new call
+	TclNRExecuteByteCode, necessitated by a merge with changes on the
+	HEAD.
+
+2010-09-26  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclBasic.c:    [Patch 3072080] (minus the itcl
+	* generic/tclCmdIL.c:    update): a saner NRE.
+	* generic/tclCompExpr.c:
+	* generic/tclCompile.c:  This makes TclNRExecuteByteCode (ex TEBC)
+	* generic/tclCompile.h:  to be a normal NRE citizen: it loses its
+	* generic/tclExecute.c:  special status.
+	* generic/tclInt.decls:  The logic flow within the BC engine is
+	* generic/tclInt.h:      simplified considerably.
+	* generic/tclIntDecls.h:
+	* generic/tclObj.c:
+	* generic/tclProc.c:
+	* generic/tclTest.c:
+
+	* generic/tclVar.c: Use the macro HasLocalVars everywhere
+
+2010-09-26  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclOOMethod.c (ProcedureMethodVarResolver): avoid code
+	duplication, let the runtime var resolver call the compiled var
+	resolver.
+
+2010-09-26  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
+
+	[dogeen-assembler-branch]
+
+	* tests/assemble.test:	Added many new tests moving toward a more
+	comprehensive test suite for the assembler.
+	* generic/tclAssembly.c:	Fixed bugs exposed by the new tests:
+	(a) [bitnot] and [not] had incorrect operand counts. (b)
+	INST_CONCAT cannot concatenate zero objects. (c) misspelt error
+	messages. (d) the "assembly code" internal representation lacked
+	a duplicator, which caused double-frees of the Bytecode object
+	if assembly code ever was duplicated.
+
+2010-09-25  Kevin B. Kenny   <kennykb@acm.org>
+
+	[dogeen-assembler-branch]
+
+	* generic/tclAssembly.c:	Massive refactoring of the assembler
+	* generic/tclAssembly.h:	to use a Tcl-like syntax (and use
+	* tests/assemble.test:		Tcl_ParseCommand to parse it). The
+	* tests/assemble1.bench:	refactoring also ensures that
+	Tcl_Tokens in the assembler have string ranges inside the source
+	code, which allows for [eval] and [expr] assembler directives
+	that simply call TclCompileScript and TclCompileExpr recursively.
+
+2010-09-24  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
+
+	* tests/stringComp.test: improved string eq/cmp test coverage
+	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): merge INST_STR_CMP and
+	INST_STR_EQ/INST_STR_NEQ paths.  Speeds up eq/ne/[string eq] with
+	obj-aware comparisons and eq/==/ne/!= with length equality check.
+
+2010-09-24  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
+
+	* tclWinsock.c: [Bug 3056775]: Fixed race condition between thread and
+	internal co-thread access of a socket's structure because of the
+	thread not using the socketListLock in TcpAccept(). Added
+	documentation on how the module works to the top.
+
+2010-09-23  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclDecls.h: Make Tcl_SetPanicProc and Tcl_GetStringResult
+	* unix/tclAppInit.c:  callable without stubs, just as Tcl_SetVar.
+	* win/tclAppInit.c:
+
+2010-09-23  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* generic/tclCmdAH.c:   Fix cases where value returned by

+
+2010-09-22  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclExecute: [Bug 3072640]: One more DECACHE_STACK_INFO() was
+	missing.
+
+	* tests/execute.test: Added execute-10.3 for [Bug 3072640]. The test
+	causes a mem failure.
+
+	* generic/tclExecute: Protect all possible writes to ::errorInfo or
+	::errorCode with DECACHE_STACK_INFO(), as they could run traces. The
+	new calls to be protected are Tcl_ResetResult(), Tcl_SetErrorCode(),
+	IllegalExprOperandType(), TclExprFloatError(). The error was triggered
+	by [Patch 3072080].
+
+2010-09-22  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+	* win/tcl.m4:		Add kernel32 to LIBS, so the link line for
+	* win/configure:	mingw is exactly the same as for MSVC++.

-	causes an interesting situation with the pre-collected single-linked
-	list of states to be splitted: many items were added to the list, but 
-	only several of them are accessible from the list beginning, 
-	since the "tmp" member of struct state (which is used here to
-	hold a pointer to the next list item) gets overwritten, which 
-	results in a "looped" chain. As a result, not all of states are
-	splitted, and one state is splitted two times, causing incorrect
-	"no-progress" flag values.

+	lookup on 0.0.0.0 when calling [fconfigure -sockname] on an
+	universally-bound (default) server socket.
+
+	* generic/tclIndexObj.c: fix [AT 86258]: special-casing of empty
+	tables when generating error messages for [::tcl::prefix match].
+
+2010-02-28  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclCmdIL.c: More additions of {TCL LOOKUP} error-code

+
+2010-02-28  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>

+
+2010-02-27  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (StringFirstCmd, StringLastCmd): [Bug 2960021]:
+	Only search for the needle in the haystack when the needle isn't
+	larger than the haystack. Prevents an odd crash from sometimes
+	happening when things get mixed up (a common programming error).
+
+	* generic/tclMain.c (Tcl_Main): [Bug 801429]: Factor out the holding
+	of the client-installed main loop function into thread-specific data.
+
+	***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
+	Code that previously tried to set the main loop from another thread
+	will now fail. On the other hand, there is a fairly high probability
+	that such programs would have been failing before due to the lack of
+	any kind of inter-thread memory barriers guarding accesses to this
+	part of Tcl's state.
+
+2010-02-26  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclCompCmds.c:   Split this file into two pieces to make it
+	* generic/tclCompCmdsSZ.c: easier to work with. It's still two very
+				   long files even after the split.
+
+2010-02-26  Reinhard Max  <max@suse.de>
+
+	* doc/safe.n: Name the installed file after the command it documents.
+	Use "Safe Tcl" instead of the "Safe Base", "Safe Tcl" mixture.
+
+2010-02-26  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+	* unix/Makefile.in (NATIVE_TCLSH): Added this variable to allow for
+	better control of what tclsh to use for various scripts when doing
+	cross compiling. An imperfect solution, but works.
+
+	* unix/installManPage: Remap non-alphanumeric sequences in filenames
+	to single underscores (especially colons).
+
+2010-02-26  Pat Thoyts  <patthoyts@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* tests/zlib.test: Add tests for [Bug 2818131] which was crashing with

+
+2010-02-25  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>

+
+	* generic/tclDictObj.c (SetDictFromAny): Prevent the list<->dict
+	* generic/tclListObj.c (SetListFromAny): conversion code from taking
+	too many liberties. Stops loss of duplicate keys in some scenarios.
+	Many thanks to Jean-Claude Wippler for finding this.
+
+	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): Reduce ifdef-fery and
+	size of activation record. More variables shared across instructions
+	than before.
+
+	* doc/socket.n: [Bug 2957688]: Clarified that [socket -server] works
+	with a command prefix. Extended example to show this in action.
+
+2010-02-22  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
+
+	* generic/tclZlib.c (ZlibTransformInput): [Bug 2762041]: Added a hack
+	to work around the general problem, early EOF recognition based on the
+	base-channel, instead of the data we have ready for reading in the
+	transform. Long-term we need a proper general fix (likely tracking EOF
+	on each level of the channel stack), with attendant complexity.
+	Furthermore, Z_BUF_ERROR can be ignored, and must be when feeding the
+	zlib code with single characters.
+
+2010-02-22  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>

+2010-02-19  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+	* unix/installManPage: [Bug 2954638]: Correct behaviour of manual page

+
+2010-02-17  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclHash.c (HashStringKey):	Restore these hash functions
+	* generic/tclLiteral.c (HashString):	to use the classic algorithm.
+	* generic/tclObj.c (TclHashObjKey):	Community felt normal case
+	speed to be more important than resistance to malicious cases. For
+	now, hashes that need to deal with the malicious case can use a custom
+	hash table and install their own hash function, though that is not
+	functionality exposed to the script level.
+
+	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileDictUpdateCmd): Stack depth must be
+	correctly described when compiling a body to prevent crashes in some
+	debugging modes.
+
+2010-02-16  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclInt.h: Change order of various struct members,

+
+2010-02-16  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+	* unix/configure.in, generic/tclIOUtil.c (Tcl_Stat): Updated so that
+	we do not assume that all unix systems have the POSIX blkcnt_t type,
+	since OpenBSD apparently does not.
+
+	* generic/tclLiteral.c (HashString): Missed updating to FNV in one
+	place; the literal table (a copy of the hash table code...)
+
+2010-02-15  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+	* tools/genStubs.tcl:   Reverted earlier rename from tcl*Stubs to

+2010-02-15  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclOO.c (AllocObject, SquelchedNsFirst, ObjectRenamedTrace):
+	* generic/tclNamesp.c (Tcl_DeleteNamespace): [Bug 2950259]: Revised
+	the namespace deletion code to provide an additional internal callback
+	that gets triggered early enough in namespace deletion to allow TclOO
+	destructors to run sanely. Adjusted TclOO to take advantage of this,
+	so making tearing down an object by killing its namespace appear to
+	work seamlessly, which is needed for Itcl. (Note that this is not a
+	feature that will ever be backported to 8.5, and it remains not a
+	recommended way of deleting an object.)
+
+2010-02-13  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileSwitchCmd): Divided the [switch]
+	compiler into three pieces (after the model of [try]): a parser, an
+	instruction-issuer for chained tests, and an instruction-issuer for
+	jump tables.
+
+	* generic/tclEnsemble.c: Split the ensemble engine out into its own
+	file rather than keeping it mashed together with the namespace code.
+
+2010-02-12  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+	* win/tcl.m4:		Use -pipe for gcc on win32

+
+2010-02-11  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* tests/list.test: Add tests for explicit \0 in a string argument to
+	the list command.
+
+2010-02-11  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclIOCmd.c (Tcl_OpenObjCmd): [Bug 2949740]: Make sure that
+	we do not try to put a NULL pipeline channel into binary mode.
+
+2010-02-11  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	[Bug 2826551, Patch 2948425]: Assorted regexp bugs related to -all,
+	-line and -start options and newlines.
+	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_RegexpObjCmd): If -offset is given, treat it
+	as the start of the line if the previous character was a newline. Fix
+	nasty edge case where a zero length match would not advance the index.
+	* tests/regexp.test: Add regression tests back ported from Jacl.
+	Checks for a number of issues related to -line and newline handling. A
+	few of tests were broken before the patch and continue to be broken,
+	marked as knownBug.
+
+2010-02-11  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclOO.c (ObjectRenamedTrace): [Bug 2949397]: Prevent
+	destructors from running on the two core class objects when the whole
+	interpreter is being destroyed.
+
+2010-02-09  Donal K. 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/tclZlib.c (Tcl_ZlibDeflate, Tcl_ZlibInflate): [Bug 2947783]:
+	Make sure that the result is an unshared object before appending to it
+	so that nothing crashes if it is shared (use in Tcl code was not
+	affected by this, but use from C was an issue).
+
+2010-02-06  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. No new bytecodes.
+
+2010-02-05  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+	* tools/genStubs.tcl:	Follow-up to earlier commit today:
+	          Eliminate the need for an extra Stubs Pointer for adressing
+	          a static stub table: Just change the exported table from

+
+	* generic/tclVar.c: More consistency in errorcode generation.
+
+	* generic/tclOOBasic.c (TclOO_Object_Destroy): Rewrote to be NRE-aware
+	when calling destructors. Note that there is no guarantee that
+	destructors will always be called in an NRE context; that's a feature
+	of the 'destroy' method only.
+
+	* generic/tclEncoding.c: Add 'const' to many function-internal vars
+	that are never pointing to things that are written to.
+
+2010-02-05  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+	* tools/genStubs.tcl:	Follow-up to [2010-01-29] commit:

+
+2010-02-04  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclVar.c: Added more use of error-codes and reduced the

+2010-02-02  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclVar.c: Turned the [array] command into a true ensemble.
+
+	* generic/tclOO.c (AllocObject, MyDeleted): A slightly faster way to
+	handle the deletion of [my] is with a standard delete callback. 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. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclVar.c (Tcl_ArrayObjCmd): [Bug 2939073]: Stop the [array

+	thanks to Alexandre Ferrieux for the bulk of this fix.
+
+	* generic/regexec.c (ccondissect, crevdissect): [Bug 2942697]: Rework

+
+	* generic/tcl.h: [Bug 2942081]: Reverted Tcl_ThreadDataKey type change
+				Changed some Tcl_CallFrame fields from "char *"
+				to "void *". This saves unnecessary space on
+				Cray's (and it's simply more correct).
+
+	* tools/genStubs.tcl:	No longer generate a space after "*" and
+				immediately after a function name, so the
+				format of function definitions in tcl*Decls.h
+				match all other tcl*.h header files.
+	* doc/ParseArgs.3:	Change Tcl_ArgvFuncProc, Tcl_ArgvGenFuncProc
+	* generic/tcl.h:	and GetFrameInfoValueProc to be function

+
+	* generic/tclOOBasic.c (TclOO_Object_Destroy): Move the execution of
+	destructors to a point where they can produce an error. This will not
+	work for all destructors, but it does mean that more failing calls of
+	them will be caught.
+	* generic/tclOO.c (AllocObject, MyDeletedTrace, ObjectRenamedTrace):
+	(ObjectNamespaceDeleted): Stop various ways of getting at commands
+	with dangling pointers to the object. Also increases the reliability
+	of calling of destructors (though most destructors won't benefit; when
+	an object is deleted namespace-first, its destructors are not run in a
+	nice state as the namespace is partially gone).

-	Fixed [Bug 800106] in which 'glob' was incapable of merging the
-	results of a directory listing (real or virtual) and any virtual
-	filesystem mountpoints in that directory (the latter were
-	ignored).  This meant boundaries between different filesystems
-	were not seamless (e.g. 'glob */*' across a filesystem boundary
-	was wrong).  Added new entry to Tcl_GlobTypeData in a totally
-	backwards compatible way.  To allow listing of mounts, registered
-	filesystems must support the 'TCL_GLOB_TYPE_MOUNT' flag.  If this
-	is not supported (e.g. in tclvfs 1.2) then mounts will simply not
-	be listed for that filesystem.
-	
-	Fixed [Bug 749876] 'file writable/readable/etc' (NativeAccess)
-	using correct permission checking code for Windows NT/2000/XP
-	where more complex user-based security/access priveleges are
-	available, particularly on shared volumes.  The performance
-	impact of this extra checking will need further investigation.
-	Note: Win 95,98,ME have no support for this.
-
-	Also made better use of normalized rather than translated paths 
-	in the platform specific code.

-
-	Check that the thread incrementing or decrementing
-	the ref count of a Tcl_Obj is the thread that
-	originally allocated the thread. This fail fast
-	behavior will catch programming errors that
-	allow a single Tcl_Obj to be accessed from multiple
-	threads.
-
-	* generic/tcl.h (Tcl_Obj): Add allocThread member
-	to Tcl_Obj. This member records the thread id the
-	Tcl_Obj was allocated. It is used to check that
-	any future ref count incr or decr is done from
-	the same thread that allocated the Tcl_Obj.
-	This member is defined only when threads and
-	mem debug are enabled.
-	* generic/tclInt.h (TclNewObj, TclDbNewObj,
-	TclDecrRefCount):
-	Define TclNewObj and TclDbNewObj using TclDbInitNewObj
-	when mem debug is enabled. This fixes a problem where
-	TclNewObj calls did not work the same as TclDbNewObj
-	when mem debug was enabled.
-	* generic/tclObj.c (TclDbInitNewObj, Tcl_DbIncrRefCount,
-	Tcl_DbDecrRefCount): Add new helper to init Tcl_Obj
-	members when mem debug is enabled. Init the allocThread
-	member in TclDbInitNewObj and check it in

+	(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.

+	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

+	somebody needs to override it via the command line or an environment

+	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].

+	Further extended the bytecode compiler to track the start line in the
+	generated information, and modified the bytecode execution to
+	recompile an object if the location as per the calling context doesn't
+	match the location saved in the bytecode. This part could be optimized
+	more by using more memory to keep all possibilities which occur

+	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

-	* win/tclWinThrd.c: Applied SF patch #727271. This patch changes
-	  the code to catch any errors returned by the windows functions
-	  handling TLS ASAP instead of waiting to get some mysterious
-	  crash later on due to bogus pointers. Patch provided by Joe
-	  Mistachkin.
+	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'.
 
-	  This is a stop-gap measure to deal with the low number of ?TLS
-	  slots provided by some of the variants of Windows (60-80).
+	Fixed the mishandling of line information in the NRE-enabled 'for' and
+	'while' commands introduced when both were made to share their

-2003-04-24  Vince Darley  <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
+	The above fixes [Bug 1605269].
 
-	* generic/tclFileName.c: fix to bug reported privately by
-	Jeff where, for example, 'glob -path {[tcl]} *' gets confused
-	by the leading special character (which is escaped internally),
-	and instead lists files in '/'.  Bug only occurs on Windows 
-	where '\' is also a directory separator.
-	* tests/fileName.test: added test for the above bug.

-	* The changes below fix SF bugs [593810], and [718045].
+	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (StringIndexCmd, StringEqualCmd, StringCmpCmd):
+	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): [Bug 2637173]: Factor out
+	* generic/tclInt.h (TclIsPureByteArray):     the code to determine if
+	* generic/tclUtil.c (TclStringMatchObj):     it is safe to work with
+	byte arrays directly, so that we get the check correct _once_.
 
-	* generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_CutChannel, Tcl_SpliceChannel):
-	  Invoke TclpCutSockChannel and TclpSpliceSockChannel.
+	* generic/tclOOCall.c (TclOOGetCallContext): [Bug 1895546]: Changed
+	* generic/tclOO.c (TclOOObjectCmdCore):	     the way that the cache is
+	managed so that when itcl does cunning things, those cunning things
+	can be cached properly.
 
-	* generic/tclInt.h: Declare TclpCutSockChannel and
-	  TclpSpliceSockChannel.
+2009-07-11  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
 
-	* unix/tclUnixSock.c (TclpCutSockChannel, TclpSpliceSockChannel):
-	  Dummy functions, on unix the sockets are _not_ handled
-	  specially.
+	* doc/vwait.n: Substantially increased the discussion of issues and
+	work-arounds relating to nested vwaits, following discussion on the
+	tcl-core mailing list on the topic.
 
-	* mac/tclMacSock.c (TclpCutSockChannel, TclpSpliceSockChannel):
-	* win/tclWinSock.c (TclpCutSockChannel, TclpSpliceSockChannel):
-	  New functions to handle socket specific cut/splice operations:
-	  auto-initi of socket system for thread on splice, management of
-	  the module internal per-thread list of sockets, management of
-	  association of sockets with HWNDs for event notification.
+2009-07-10  Pat Thoyts  <patthoyts@users.sourceforge.net>
 
-	* win/tclWinSock.c (NewSocketInfo): Extended initialization
-	  assignments to cover all items of the structure. During
-	  debugging of the new code mentioned above I found that two
-	  fileds could contain bogus data.
+	* tests/zlib.test:   ZlibTransformClose may be called with a NULL
+	* generic/tclZlib.c: interpreter during finalization and
+	Tcl_SetChannelError requires a list. Added some tests to ensure error
+	propagation from the zlib library to the interp.
 
-	* win/tclWinFile.c: Added #undef HAVE_NO_FINDEX_ENUMS before
-	  definition because when compiling in debug mode the compiler
-	  complains about a redefinition, and this warning is also treated
-	  as an error.

-	not meet expectations, report that as the reason for test failure,
-	and do not attempt to check the test result for correctness.

-	* win/tclWinInt.h (VER_PLATFORM_WIN32_CE): conditionally define.

-	uses /bin/bash, which can fail to find exes in the path (ie: lib).
+	* generic/tclZlib.c (ZlibTransformWatch): Correct the handling of
+	events so that channel transforms work with things like an asynch

-2003-04-16  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tcl.h:	Made changes so that the "wideInt" Tcl_ObjType
-	* generic/tclObj.c:	is defined on all platforms, even those where
-	* generic/tclPort.h:	TCL_WIDE_INT_IS_LONG is defined.  Also made
-	the Tcl_Value struct have a wideValue field on all platforms.  This is
-	a ***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY*** for TCL_WIDE_INT_IS_LONG platforms
-	because that struct changes size.  This is the same TIP 72
-	incompatibility that was seen on other platforms at the 8.4.0 release,
-	when this change should have happened as well.	[Bug 713562]
+	* win/tclWinInt.h:   [Bug 2806622]: Handle the GetUserName API call
+	* win/tclWin32Dll.c: via the tclWinProcs indirection structure. This
+	* win/tclWinInit.c:  fixes a problem obtaining the username when the
+	USERNAME environment variable is unset.
 
-	* generic/tclInt.h:  New internal macros TclGetWide() and
-	TclGetLongFromWide() to deal with both forms of the "wideInt"
-	Tcl_ObjType, so that conditional TCL_WIDE_INT_IS_LONG code
-	is confined to the header file.
-
-	* generic/tclCmdAH.c:	Replaced most coding that was conditional
-	* generic/tclCmdIL.c:	on TCL_WIDE_INT_IS_LONG with code that
-	* generic/tclExecute.c: works across platforms, sometimes using

+2009-06-18  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
 
-	* win/Makefile.in: Don't define TCL_DBGX
-	symbol for every compile. Instead, define
-	TCL_PIPE_DLL only when compiling tclWinPipe.c.
-	This will break other build systems, so
-	they will need to remove the TCL_DBGX define
-	and replace it with a define for TCL_PIPE_DLL.
-	* win/tclWinPipe.c (TclpCreateProcess):
-	Remove PREFIX_IDENT and DEBUG_IDENT from
-	top of file. Use TCL_PIPE_DLL passed in
-	from build env instead of trying to construct
-	the dll name from already defined symbols.
-	This approach is more flexible and better
-	in the long run.
-
-2003-04-14  Kevin Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>

-
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c: 
-	* generic/tclPathObj.c: 
-	* generic/tclFileSystem.h: overlooked one function which
-	was duplicated, so this is now shared between modules.
-	* win/tclWinFile.c: allow this file to compile with VC++ 5.2 again
-	since Mingw build fixes broke that.
-	
-2003-04-13  Mo DeJong  <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* win/configure: Regen.
-	* win/configure.in: Add check for FINDEX_INFO_LEVELS
-	from winbase.h, known to be a problem in VC++ 5.2.
-	Define HAVE_NO_FINDEX_ENUMS if the define does not
-	exist.
-	* win/tclWinFile.c: Put declarations for
-	FINDEX_INFO_LEVELS and FINDEX_SEARCH_OPS inside
-	a check for HAVE_NO_FINDEX_ENUMS so that these are
-	not declared twice. This fixes the Mingw build.
-	* win/tclWinTime.c: Rework the init of timeInfo
-	so that the number or initializers matches the
-	declaration. This was broken under Mingw. Add
-	cast to avoid compile warning when calling the
-	AccumulateSample function.
-
-2003-04-12  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>

-
-	* doc/clock.n:
-	* generic/tclClock.c (Tcl_ClockObjCmd): 
-	* tests/clock.test: Implementation of TIP #124. Also renumbered
-	test cases to avoid duplicates [Bug 710310].
-	* tests/winTime.test:
-	* win/tclWinTest.c (TestwinclockCmd, TestwinsleepCmd):

-	                    ResetCounterSamples, AccumulateSample,
-	                    SAMPLES, TimeInfo): Made substantial changes
-	to the phase-locked loop (replaced an IIR filter with an FIR one)
-	in a quest for improved loop stability (Bug not logged at SF, but
-	cited in private communication from Jeff Hobbs).

-2003-04-11  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_StringObjCmd,STR_IS_INT):  Corrected
-	inconsistent results of [string is integer] observed on systems
-	where sizeof(long) != sizeof(int).  [Bug 718878]
-	* tests/string.test: Added tests for Bug 718878.
-	* doc/string.n: Clarified that [string is integer] accepts
-	32-bit integers.
-
-2003-04-11  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
-
-	* generic/tclIO.c (UpdateInterest): When dropping interest in
-	  TCL_READABLE now dropping interest in TCL_EXCEPTION too. This
-	  fixes a bug where Expect detects eof on a file prematurely on
-	  solaris 2.6 and higher. A much more complete explanation is in
-	  the code itself (40 lines of comments for a one-line change :)

-	[Bug #704917]
-	* win/tclWinFile.c: 
-	* win/tclWin32Dll.c: 
-	* win/tclWinInt.h: allow Tcl to differentiate between reparse
-	points which are symlinks and mounted volumes, and correctly
-	handle the latter. This involves some elaborate code to find
-	the actual drive letter (if possible) corresponding to a mounted
-	volume.  [Bug #697862]
-	* tests/fileSystem.test: add constraints to stop tests running
-	in ordinary tcl interpreter. [Bug #705675]
+	* generic/tclCkalloc.c (MemoryCmd): [Bug 988703]:
+	* generic/tclObj.c (ObjData, TclFinalizeThreadObjects): Add mechanism
+	for discovering what Tcl_Objs are allocated when built for memory
+	debugging. Developed by Joe Mistachkin.
 
-	* generic/tclIOUtil.c:
-	* generic/tclPathObj.c: (new file)
-	* generic/tclFileSystem.h: (new file)
-	* win/makefile.vc:
-	Split path object handling out of the virtual filesystem layer,
-	into tclPathObj.c.  This refactoring cleans up the internal
-	filesystem code, and will make any future optimisations and
-	forthcoming better thread-safety much easier.
-	
-	* generic/tclTest.c:
-	* tests/reg.test: added some 'knownBug' tests for problems in
-	Tcl's regexp code with the TCL_REG_CAN_MATCH flag (see Bug #703709).  
-	Code too impenetrable to fix right now, but a fix is needed 
-	for tip113 to work correctly.
-	
-	* tests/fCmd.test
-	* win/tclWinFile.c: added some filesystem optimisation to the
-	'glob' implementation, and some new tests.

-	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c: fix typo in comment
-	
-	* tests/winFile.test:
-	* tests/ioUtil.test:

-	(DictIncrCmd): Moved valueAlreadyInDictionary label to stop
-	compiler complaints.  [Bug 715751]
-
-	* generic/tclDictObj.c (DictIncrCmd): Followed style in the rest of
-	the core by commenting out wide-specific operations on platforms
-	where wides are longs, and used longs more thoroughly than ints
-	through [dict incr] anyway to forestall further bugs.
-	* generic/tclObj.c: Made sure there's always a tclWideIntType
-	implementation available, not that it is always useful.  [Bug 713562]

-2003-04-05  Donal K. Fellows  <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>

-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileSwitchCmd): First attempt at a

-	from two things: better handling of the switch itself, and
-	integrated compilation of the arms instead of embedding separate
-	bytecode sequences (i.e. better local variable handling.)

+	call: objPtr = Tcl_NewUnicodeObj(...,0); followed by a loop of calls:
+	Tcl_AppendUnicodeToObj(objPtr, u, n); will now grow and append to
+	the Unicode representation.  Before this commit, the sequence would

+	This is puzzling and likely a bug.  The performance of [string map]
+	is significantly improved by this change (according to the MAP

+
+	* generic/tclStringObj.c:	Pare back the length of the unicode

+	that T_ASTO can now allocate more space than is strictly required,
+	like all the other Tcl_Append* routines.  The incompatibility was
+	detected by test stringObj-6.5, which I've updated to reflect the
+	new behavior.
+
+	* generic/tclStringObj.c:	Revise buffer growth implementation
+	in ExtendStringRepWithUnicode.  Use cheap checks to determine that
+	no reallocation is necessary without cost of computing the precise

+	two-legged stork representation (objPtr->bytes = tclEmptyStringRep
+	and stringPtr->hasUnicode = 1).  In the situations where the strange
+	rep was treated differently, continue to do so by testing
+	stringPtr->numChars == 0 to detect it.  These changes make the code

+	New utility routine UnicodeLength(), to compute the length of unicode

-	* win/tclWinSock.c: Define LPFN_* typedefs if
-	HAVE_NO_LPFN_DECLS is defined. This fixes the build

-2003-01-08  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+	* generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_DeleteCommandFromToken):	Reverted most
+	of the substance of my 2009-01-12 commit. NULLing the objProc field of
+	a Command when deleting it is important so that tests for certain
+	classes of commands don't return false positives when applied to
+	deleted command tokens. Overall change is now just replacement of a
+	false comment with a true one.
 
-	* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExprFloatError):  Use the IS_NAN macro
-	for greater clarity of code.
+2009-01-13  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
 
-2003-01-07  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+	* unix/tcl.m4: [Bug 2502365]: Building of head on HPUX is broken when
+	using the native CC.
+	* unix/configure (autoconf-2.59)
 
-	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileReturnCmd): 
-	* tests/compile.test:	Corrects failure of bytecompiled 
-	[catch {return}] to have result TCL_RETURN (not TCL_OK) [Bug 633204].
-	This patch is a workaround for 8.4.X.  A new opcode INST_RETURN is a
-	better long term solution for 8.5 and later.

-2003-01-04  David Gravereaux  <davygrvy@pobox.com>
+	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_ThrowObjCmd):	Move implementation of [throw]
+	* library/init.tcl (throw):		to C from Tcl.
 
-	* win/makefile.vc:
-	* win/rules.vc:  Fixed INSTALLDIR macro problem that blanked itself
-	by accident causing the install target to put the tree at the root
-	of the drive built on.  Whoops..
-
-	Renamed the 'linkexten' option to be 'staticpkg'.  Added 'thrdalloc'
-	to allow the switching _on_ of the thread allocator.  Under testing,
-	I found it not to be benificial under windows for the purpose of the
-	application I was using it for.  It was more important for this app
-	that resources for tcl threads be returned to the system rather than
-	saved/moved to the global recycler.  Be extra clean or extra fast
-	for the default threaded build?  Let's move to clean and allow it to
-	be switched on for users who find it benificial for their use of
-	threads.
+2009-01-12  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* 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].
+
+2009-01-09  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* generic/tclStringObj.c (STRING_SIZE): [Bug 2494093]: Corrected
+	failure to limit memory allocation requests to the sizes that can be
+	supported by Tcl's memory allocation routines.
+
+2009-01-09  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclNamesp.c (NamespaceEnsembleCmd): [Bug 1558654]: Error out
+	when someone gives wrong # of args to [namespace ensemble create].
+
+2009-01-08  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* generic/tclStringObj.c (STRING_UALLOC): [Bug 2494093]: Added missing
+	parens required to get correct results out of things like
+	STRING_UALLOC(num + append).
+
+2009-01-08  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclDictObj.c, generic/tclIndexObj.c, generic/tclListObj.c,
+	* generic/tclObj.c, generic/tclStrToD.c, generic/tclUtil.c,
+	* generic/tclVar.c: Generate errorcodes for the error cases which
+	approximate to "I can't interpret that string as one of those" and
+	"You gave me the wrong number of arguments".
+
+2009-01-07  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+	* doc/dict.n: [Tk Bug 2491235]: Added more examples.
+
+	* tests/oo.test (oo-22.1): Adjusted test to be less dependent on the
+	specifics of how [info frame] reports general frame information, and
+	instead to focus on what methods add to it; that's really what the
+	test is about anyway.
+
+2009-01-06  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* tests/stringObj.test:	Revise tests that demand a NULL Tcl_ObjType
+	in certain values to construct those values with [testdstring] so
+	there's no lack of robustness depending on the shimmer history of
+	shared literals.
+
+2009-01-06  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclDictObj.c (DictIncrCmd): Corrected twiddling in internals
+	of dictionaries so that literals can't get destroyed.
+
+	* tests/expr.test: [Bug 2006879]: Eliminate non-ASCII char.
+
+	* generic/tclOOInfo.c (InfoObjectMethodsCmd,InfoClassMethodsCmd):
+	[Bug 2489836]: Only delete pointers that were actually allocated!
+
+	* generic/tclOO.c (TclNRNewObjectInstance, Tcl_NewObjectInstance):
+	[Bug 2481109]: Perform search for existing commands in right context.
+
+2009-01-05  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (TclNRSourceObjCmd): [Bug 2412068]: Make
+	* generic/tclIOUtil.c (TclNREvalFile):    implementation of the
+	[source] command be NRE enabled so that [yield] inside a script
+	sourced in a coroutine can work.
+
+2009-01-04  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclCmdAH.c: Tidy up spacing and code style.
+
+2009-01-03  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>
+
+	* library/clock.tcl (tcl::clock::add): Fixed error message formatting
+	in the case where [clock add] is presented with a bad switch.
+	* tests/clock.test (clock-65.1) Added a test case for the above
+	problem [Bug 2481670].
+
+2009-01-02  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+	* unix/tcl.m4 (SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS): [Bug 878333]: Force the use of the
+	compatibility version of mkstemp() on IRIX.
+	* unix/configure.in, unix/Makefile.in (mkstemp.o):
+	* compat/mkstemp.c (new file): [Bug 741967]: Added a compatibility
+	implementation of the mkstemp() function, which is apparently needed
+	on some platforms.

/* Magic for extension modules (built-in as well as dynamically

   once, we keep a static dictionary 'extensions' keyed by the tuple
   (module name, module name)  (for built-in modules) or by
   (filename, module name) (for dynamically loaded modules), containing these
   modules.  A copy of the module's dictionary is stored by calling
   _PyImport_FixupExtensionObject() immediately after the module initialization
   function succeeds.  A copy can be retrieved from there by calling
   _PyImport_FindExtensionObject().

   Modules which do support multiple initialization set their m_size

   module-specific state). They are still recorded in the extensions
