- 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.

-
- * 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
- * win/tclWinInit.c (TclpInitLibraryPath): used 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
- * tests/fileSystem.test: the treatment of backslashes in file
- join on Windows.

-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/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. The config settings are not part of
- * generic/tclPort.: the public interface, and having it there
- breaks compiled against uninstalled Tcl and extensions using
- autoconf-2.5*.
-
-2004-11-16 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
- * unix/tclUnixChan.c (TtySetOptionProc): fixed crash configuring
- -ttycontrol on a channel. [Bug 1067708]
-
-2004-11-16 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * generic/tclIOUtil.c (TclFSEpochOk): There were two code paths
- via which the thread copy of filesystemEpoch could be synched with
- the master copy, but only one kept the filesystem list cache up
- to date. Fix routes everything through a single code path.
- [Bug 1035775].
-
-2004-11-16 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * unix/tcl.m4 (SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS): Stop architecture flags to 'ld'
- from getting lost when [load] is disabled. [Bug 1016796]
-
-2004-11-16 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * generic/tcl.h:
- * unix/configure.in: changed HAVE_CONFIG_H to HAVE_TCL_CONFIG_H.
-
- * unix/configure: autoconf-2.57
-
-2004-11-15 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * generic/tclInt.h: Added comment warning that the old
- ERR_IN_PROGRESS and ERROR_CODE_SET flag values should not be re-used
- for the sake of those extensions that have accessed them.
-
- * generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_TraceObjCmd): Fixed Bug 1065378 which failed
- * tests/trace.test (trace-33.1): to permit a variable trace
- created with [trace variable] to be destroyed with [trace remove].
- Thanks to Keith Vetter for the report.
-
-2004-11-15 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>

-
-2004-11-12 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- TIP #221 IMPLEMENTATION
- * generic/tclBasic.c: Define [::tcl::Bgerror] in new interps.

- * generic/tclMain.c:
-
- * generic/tclDecls.h: make genstubs
- * generic/tclStubInit.c:
-
- * unix/tclAppInit.c: Removed tclConfig.h #include, now that tcl.h
- takes care of it for us.
-
- * generic/tclInt.h: Moved verification of ptrdiff_t typedef from
- * generic/tclExecute.c: multiple .c files into one common header where
- * generic/tclVar.c: it is verifiably after tclConfig.h inclusion.
-
-2004-11-12 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * generic/tcl.h:
- * generic/tclInt.h:
- * unix/Makefile.in: include tclConfig.h from tcl.h and install it
- as a public header. Normalized compiler include path order to
- -I${BUILD_DIR} -I${UNIX_DIR} -I${GENERIC_DIR}.
-
- * unix/dltest/Makefile.in: add ${BUILD_DIR}/.. to include path
- to pick up tclConfig.h.
-
- * unix/tclUnixInit.c: moved check for HAVE_CFBUNDLE define after
- #include "tclInt.h" to ensure tclConfig.h has been included.
-
-2004-11-12 Reinhard Max <max@suse.de>
-
- * unix/config.h.in:
- * unix/tclConfig.h.in: renamed
-
- * unix/Makefile.in: Completed support for config header,
- * unix/configure.in: fixed building outside of the unix dir,
- * unix/tclAppinit.c: and reflected the name change of config.h.
- * generic/tclInt.h:
-
- * unix/configure: generated
-
-2004-11-12 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * unix/config.h.in: Allow configure to put all the C #defs into
- * unix/configure.in: a file (called config.h) so that Unix builds
- * unix/tcl.m4: now take far fewer lines of scrollback to
- * unix/Makefile.in: proceed (making it less likely that any errors
- * generic/tclInt.h: or warnings will get missed).
- * unix/tclAppInit.c: Part of the TIP#34 upgrades.
-
- * unix/tcl.m4, unix/tclUnixPort.h: Check for pthread_attr_get_np
- in <pthread.h> before forcing the use of <pthread_np.h> to make
- things work on NetBSD 2.0. [Bug 1064882]
-
- * doc/binary.n, doc/upvar.n: More minor fixes.
-
-2004-11-12 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * doc/CrtChannel.3:
- * doc/Interp.3:
- * doc/Limit.3:
- * doc/binary.n:
- * doc/dict.n:
- * doc/tm.n:
- * doc/upvar.n: fixed *roff errors uncovered by running 'make html'.
-
- * tools/tcltk-man2html.tcl: added faked support for bullet point
- lists, i.e. *nroff ".IP \(bu" syntax.
-
-2004-11-11 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * tests/fCmd.test:
- * unix/tclUnixFCmd.c (TraverseUnixTree): added option to rewind()
- the readdir() loop whenever the source hierarchy has been modified
- by traverseProc (e.g. by deleting files); this is required to ensure
- complete traversal of the source hierarchy on certain filesystems
- like HFS+. Added test for failing recursive delete on Mac OS X that
- was due to this. [Bug 1034337]
-
- * generic/tclListObj.c (Tcl_ListObjReplace): use memmove() instead
- of manual copy loop to shift list elements. Decreases time spent in
- Tcl_ListObjReplace() from 5.2% to 1.7% of overall runtime of
- tclbench on a ppc 7455 (i.e. 200% speed increase). [Patch 1064243]
-
- * generic/tclHash.c: hoisted some constant pointer dereferences out
- of loops to eliminate redundant loads that the gcc optimizer didn't
- deal with. Decreases time spend in Tcl_FindHashEntry() by 10% over a
- full run of the tcl testuite on a ppc 7455. [Patch 1064243]
-
- * tests/fileName.test:
- * tests/fileSystem.test:
- * tests/io.test:
- * tests/msgcat.test:
- * tests/tcltest.test:
- * tests/unixInit.test: fixed bugs causing failures when running
- tests with -tmpdir arg not set to working dir.
-
- * macosx/Makefile: corrected path to html help inside framework.
- Prevent parallel make from building several targets at the same
- time.
-
- * macosx/tclMacOSXFCmd.c (struct fileinfobuf): force struct to be
- packed to prevent failures when builing with -malign=natural.
-
-2004-11-10 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
-
- * unix/tclUnixChan.c: [Bug 727786]. Exterminated the code marked
- DEPRECATED. This code has not been used in over a year now, and
- we have no complaints.
-
-2004-11-08 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
- * win/tclWinPipe.c: The pipe channel driver now respects
- the -blocking option when closing is the same way the UNIX
- side works. This is to avoid a hung shell when exiting due
- to open pipes that refuse to close in a graceful manner.
- * doc/open.n: Added a note about -blocking 0 and lack of
- exit status as it had never been documented. [Bug 947693]
-
- ***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
-
- Scripts that use async pipes on windows, must (like the
- UNIX side) set -blocking to 1 before calling [close] to
- receive the exit status.
-
-2004-11-07 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
- * tests/winFile.test: added contraint to winFile-4.0 to prevent
- it being run on NT4 [Bug 981829]
-
-2004-11-05 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * tests/reg.test: Major reorganization so that this file is much
- easier for a normal Tcl maintainer to comprehend. The test flags
- are still very cryptic, but they appear to have to be that way.
- The number of skipped tests has increased, but now the skipped
- tests have much more meaningful content.
-
- * tests/tm.test (genpaths): Add a [file normalize] so we pick up
- Windows drive letters, etc. [Bug 1053568]
-
-2004-11-04 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * changes: Updates toward an 8.5a2 release.
-
-2004-11-03 Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
-
- * library/clock.tcl (FreeScan): Fixed a bug where scanning
- "Monday" with a base time other than midnight incorrectly carried
- the base time forward.
-
- * test/clock.test (clock-33.{5,5a}): Made the test failure more
- informative.
-
- * tests/clock.test (clock-34.{28,44,45,46}): Removed 'knownBug'
- constraints from tests that no longer fail.
-
- Thanks to Don Porter for reporting these.
-
-2004-11-03 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
- * generic/tcl.h: Moved the preprocessor logic
- * generic/tclDecls.h: from tclInt.h of setting the
- * generic/tclInt.h: TCL_STORAGE_CLASS macro to the
- * generic/tclIntDecls.h: tcl*Decls.h files now that no
- * generic/tclIntPlatDecls.h: use of EXTERN is left in tclInt.h.
- * generic/tclPlatDecls.h: Proto for Tcl_Main moved in tcl.h
- * win/tclWinPort.h: to prior the inclusion of the Stubs
- headers as they are now resetting TCL_STORAGE_CLASS. Removed
- extrainious reset from tclWinPort.h. [Patch 1055668]
-
- * generic/tclCompile.h: Removed extrainious reset of
- TCL_STORAGE_CLASS missed in my last edit.
-
-2004-11-03 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * library/init.tcl ([unknown]): Corrections to the 2004-10-25 mods
- to Aunt ??? in [unknown]. Flaws revealed by Itcl test suite, which
- still apparently relies on this brokenness. Also added comment
- suggesting the error message that any code using this hack *ought*
- to receive in reply.
-
- * generic/tclTrace.c (TclCallVarTraces): Improved ability to debug
- * tests/incr-old.test (incr-old-2.6): errors during variable
- * tests/incr.test (incr-{1,2}.28): traces by preserving the

-2004-11-02 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
- * generic/tclInt.h: added a check for #ifdef __cplusplus around
- the #define of MODULE_SCOPE. About the only time it would be
- problem is when someone is statically linking to Tcl and accessing
- internals from a C++ file and has name mangling issues from the
- lack of "C" after 'extern' [Patch 1055668].
- * generic/tclCompile.h: Exchanged use of the EXTERN macro to the
- new MODULE_SCOPE macro. Lowered exported internals count by 35.
- [Patch 1055668]
- * win/tclWinInt.h:
- * win/tclWinPort.h: exported internals dropped by a count of 14.
- * generic/tclFileSystem.h: Added use of MODULE_SCOPE on protos.
- * generic/tclRegexp.h: manipulating TCL_STORAGE_CLASS unnecessary.
-
-2004-11-02 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl: Corrected some misleading
- * tests/tcltest.test (tcltest-26.1,2): displays of ::errorInfo and
- ::errorCode information when the -setup, -body, and/or -cleanup scripts
- return an unexpected return code. Thanks to Robert Seeger for the
- fix. [RFE 1017151].
-
-2004-11-02 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): Improved version of
- the NaN fix from Miguel Sofer. [Bug 761471]
-
-2004-11-02 Kevin Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
-
- * library/tzdata/America/Cuiaba: Change to DST rules for
- * library/tzdata/America/Havana: autumn of 2004.

- and add comments.
-
-2004-11-02 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * generic/tclInt.h: Change uses of EXTERN to MODULE_SCOPE (defined
- in this file too to be 'extern' if not overridden) as nothing
- declared in tclInt.h is supposed to be visible outside the Tcl
- core. If there *is* anything that extensions are actually using,
- we can open this up later on. [Patch 1055668]
-
- * doc/CrtChannel.3 (Tcl_GetChannelMode): Add synopsis. [Bug 1058446]
-
-2004-11-01 Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
-
- * win/tclWinFile.c (FromCTime, TclpUtime): Replaced a call to the
- Posix 'utime' function with calls to Windows-API equivalents, to
- avoid a bug where the VC++ versions misconvert times across a
- Daylight Saving Time boundary. [Bug 926106]
- * win/tclWinInt.h (TclWinProcs):
- * win/tclWin32Dll.c (asciiProcs, unicodeProcs): Removed now-unused
- reference to 'utime'.
- * tests/cmdAH.test (cmdAH-24.12): Added test case for the
- above bug.
-
-2004-11-01 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>

- friends handle NaN correctly in all cases. [Bug 761471]
-
- * generic/tclNamesp.c (NamespaceInscopeCmd): Make the error
- message generation the same as in NamespaceEvalCmd().
- (Tcl_Import): Rationalized to use Tcl_EvalObjv().
-
-2004-10-31 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * tests/io.test (io-40.3): Convert umask2 test constraint into a
- form that most people will be able to satisfy.
-
- * tests/cmdAH.test (cmdAH-8.45): Removed broken test constraint.
- It didn't do what it was intended to do, and it implied the other
- correct constraint. [Bug 1053908]
-
- * generic/tclCmdIL.c (InfoGlobalsCmd):
- * tests/info.test (info-8.4): Strip leading global-namespace
- specifiers from the pattern argument. [Bug 1057461]
-
-2004-10-30 Kevin Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
-
- * generic/clock.c: Replaced WIN32 macro with __WIN32__.
- [Bug 1054357]. Thanks to David Gravereaux for the patch.
- * win/tclWinFile.c: Removed a long-standing bug that causes
- incorrect conversion between file time and UTC time if
- the file time is recorded in a different Daylight Saving Time
- status than the current one. [Bug 926106]
-
-2004-10-29 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl: Correct reaction to errors in the
- obsolete processCmdLineArgsHook. [Bug 1055673]
- * library/tcltest/pkgIndex.tcl: Bump to tcltest 2.2.7
- * unix/Makefile.in:
- * tests/all.tcl: Update to use [tcltest::configure].
-
-2004-10-29 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * library/tm.tcl (::tcl::tm::*): Use the core proc engine to
- generate the wrong-num-args error messages for the path ensemble.
-
- Ensembles can now (sometimes) rewrite the error messages of their
- subcommands so they appear more like the arguments that the user
- passed to the ensemble. Below is a description of changes involved
- in doing this.
-
- * tests/namespace.test (namespace-50.*): Tests of ensemble
- subcommand error message rewriting.
- * generic/tclProc.c (TclObjInterpProc): Make procedures implement
- their wrong-num-args message using Tcl_WrongNumArgs instead of
- something baked-at-home.
- * generic/tclNamesp.c (TclIsEnsemble, NsEnsembleImplementationCmd):
- Added test of ensemble-hood (available to rest of core) and made
- ensembles set up the rewriting for Tcl_WrongNumArgs to take
- advantage of.
- * generic/tclInt.h (Interp.ensembleRewrite): Extra fields.
- * generic/tclIndexObj.c (Tcl_WrongNumArgs): Add knowledge of what
- is going on in ensembles' command rewriting so this command can
- generate the right error message itself.
- * generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_CreateInterp, TclEvalObjvInternal):
- Added code to initialize (as empty) the rewriting fields and reset
- them when we leak outside an ensemble implementation.
-
-2004-10-28 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
- * generic/tclExecute.c (INST_START_CMD):
- * tests/execute.test (execute-8.3): fix for execution stack
- corruption [Bug 1055676]. Credit dgp for detective work and fix.
-
-2004-10-27 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * tests/socket.test (socket-13.1): Balanced [makeFile] and
- [removeFile] commands.
-
- * tests/clock.test: Correct duplicate test names.
- * tests/namespace.test:
- * tests/string.test:
- * tests/io.test (io-50.4): Use namespace variables.
-
-2004-10-27 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
- * generic/tclInt.decls: The following 9 functions were moved from
- * generic/tclInt.h: tclInt.h to the private/int Stubs table for
- * generic/tclIntDecls.h: use by the test suite. As tclTest.obj is
- * generic/tclStubInit.c: linked to the shell, these functions need
- "blessed" status so as to always be exported from the library. Being
- placed in the Stubs table guarantees this [Bug 1054748]:
- TclpObjRemoveDirectory, TclpObjCopyDirectory,
- TclpObjCreateDirectory, TclpObjDeleteFile,
- TclpObjCopyFile, TclpObjRenameFile,
- TclpObjStat, TclpObjAccess,
- TclpOpenFileChannel
-
- * tests/registry.test: Fixed test files to load the correct
- * tests/winDde.test: registry and dde packages by using the info
- * win/Makefile.in: from makefiles to tell tcltest where to load
- * win/makefile.vc: them from. This avoids grabbing the wrong
- package from $auto_path which might be the install point rather than
- the dev location. Kudos to Jennifer Hom for adding -load and
- -loadfile to the tcltest package. [Bug 926088]
-
- * win/tclWinThrd.c (TclFinalizeLock): release the critical section
- before deleting it. [Bug 731778]
-
- * generic/tcl.h: Removed the file level 'extern "C" {' and the
- coresponding closing block as it serves no purpose given that all
- the function prototypes have the proper extern usage already.
-
- * unix/tclAppInit.c: When built as tcltest, TclThread_Init was
- * win/tclAppInit.c: getting called twice. First by
- Tcltest_Init, then again in Tcl_AppInit. The call from Tcl_AppInit
- is now removed.
-
-2004-10-27 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
-
- * tests/tm.test: Expanded on the testsuite entered by Donal.
- * library/tm.tcl: Even found bugs, these have been corrected.
-
-2004-10-26 Kevin Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
-
- * tests/format.test (format-19.1): Additional regression test for
- Bug 868489.
-
-2004-10-27 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * doc/*.n: Many small general documentation fixes.
-
-2004-10-26 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
- * generic/tclPipe.c (TclCleanupChildren): bad cast of resolvedPid
- caused PIDs on win95 to go negative. winpipe-4.2 brought this to
- the surface. Fixed with sprintf in place of TclFormatInt. Thanks
- to hgiese [Patch 767676]
-
-2004-10-26 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
-
- * library/tm.tcl (::tcl::tm::Defaults): Added a second [file
- dirname] around the location of the executable. This fixes [Tcl
- SF Bug 1038705]. Instable of a bogus "foo/bin/lib" we now have
- the correct "foo/lib" as a base path for modules.
-
-2004-10-26 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * generic/tclParse.c (Tcl_SubstObj): Fix for failed subst-12.3 test.
- * tests/subst.test (subst-12.3-5): More tests for Bug 1036649.
-
- * unix/Makefile.in (install-libraries): Updated the installation
- of the http, msgcat, and tcltest packages to install as Tcl Modules
- on Unix systems. Other platform Makefiles still need updating.
- [Patch 1054370]
-
- * tests/basic.test: Added missing constraints.
- * tests/compile.test:
- * tests/fileSystem.test:
-
- * tests/init.test (init-2.8): Updated to not rely on http package.
-
-2004-10-26 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
- * generic/tclInt.h:
- * generic/tclVar.c: removed more direct references to the VAR
- flags, replaced with access macros.
-
-2004-10-26 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * doc/expr.n: Clarified that non-num/non-bool literals require
- quoting. [Bug 1027849]. Also listed booleans as acceptable values.
-
-2004-10-26 Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
-
- * library/clock.tcl (FreeScan): Fixed a bug that caused relative
- days of the week in free-form [clock scan] to be evaluated in the
- wrong time zone.
- * tests/clock.test (clock-31.[456]): Made sure that there
- isn't an env(TZ) or env(TCL_TZ) lying around that will
- override the time zone that we're trying to establish with
- the simulated registry.
- Both problems reported as [Bug 1054101].
-
-2004-10-25 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * doc/string.n (map): Rewrote to clarify that we don't just map
- single characters. [Bug 1048005]
- * doc/info.n (procs): Clarified that the pattern argument may have
- namespace separators in it. [Bug 1047928]
-
- * tests/cmdAH.test (cmdAH-8.45): Simplify in the hope that the
- reasons for [Bug 1053908] will become clearer.
-
-2004-10-25 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * generic/tclExecute.c (IllegalExprOperandType,TclExecuteByteCode):
- Removed several DECACHE_INFO/CACHE_INFO pairs that are no longer
- needed for protection because routines like Tcl_SetErrorCode() and
- Tcl_AddErrorInfo() can no longer re-enter bytecode execution.
-
- * generic/tclResult.c (TclProcessReturn): Bug fix. Be sure that
- a missing -errorinfo option when code == TCL_ERROR causes the
- errorInfo field to get reset.
-
- * tests/thread.test (thread-4.4): Test depended on a ::errorInfo
- value initialized to "". Added code to test to setup that requirement.
-
- * library/auto.tcl Purged Tcl's script library of all
- * library/clock.tcl remaining references to global vars
- * library/init.tcl ::errorInfo and ::errorCode.
-
- * generic/tclMain.c (Tcl_Main): Updated to make use of
- TclGetReturnOptions instead of ::errorInfo variable.
-
- * generic/tclInterp.c (tclInit): Bug fix. Access dict variables
- with [dict get], not array syntax.
-
-2004-10-25 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * tests/tm.test: Rewrote the tests to actually perform syntax
- checks on the public API. Added a new test (currently failing) to
- indicate that the test suite is not complete yet.
- * library/tm.tcl (path): Rewrote to turn this command into an
- ensemble to make it faster and simpler.
-
-2004-10-24 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
- * generic/tclCmdIL.c:
- * generic/tclExecute.c:
- * generic/tclInt.h:
- * generic/tclTrace.c: defined new macros to get/set the flags of
- variables. The only files that still access the flag values
- directly are tclCompCmds.c, tclCompile.c, tclProc.c and tclVar.c
-
-2004-10-24 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_LogCommandInfo,Tcl_AddObjErrorInfo):
- Shift the initialization of errorCode to NONE to more central
- location.
-
- * generic/tclEvent.c (BgError,Tcl_BackgroundError,HandleBgErrors):
- Rewrite to build on the new TclGet/SetReturnOptions routines.
-
- * generic/tclResult.c (TclGetReturnOptions): Add call to
- Tcl_AddObjErrorInfo to be sure error fields are initialized.
-
- * generic/tclResult.c (TclTransferResult):
- Rewrite to build on the new TclGet/SetReturnOptions routines.
-
-2004-10-22 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * doc/tm.n: Tightened up the documentation.
- * tests/tm.test: Created (with partially dummy content) so TIP#189
- can be marked Final.
-
- * generic/tclNamesp.c (NsEnsembleImplementationCmd): Make
- ensembles cut their implementations out of error traces. This is
- the right thing to do more often than not.
-
-2004-10-22 Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
-
- * library/clock.tcl: Fixed a typo where the fallback time zone
- became ::localtime instead of :localtime. Fixed a bug where
- time zone names containing hyphens could not be loaded.
- * tests/clock.test: Added regression test cases that covers
- both bugs.
- Thanks to Todd M. Helfter <tmh@jumpgate.itsp.purdue.edu> for
- finding these bugs.
-
-2004-10-22 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * generic/tclExecute.c (TclCompEvalObj, Tcl_ExprObj):
- * generic/tclProc.c (TclProcCompileProc): Always call object
- freeIntRepProc's in the same way.
-
-2004-10-22 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
- * generic/tclVar.c: fixed bug in commit of 2004-07-23, which was
- causing a leak of Proc structures and failure of compile-12.1. Two
- lines were 'zombies' from the previous way localVarNames
- worked. Credit dgp for finding this.
-
-2004-10-21 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * generic/tclInt.h (Interp):
- * generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_CreateInterp,Tcl_DeleteInterp):
- * generic/tclResult.c (GetKeys,ReleaseKeys,etc.):
- Moved the key values of the return options dictionary out of
- private fields of the Interp struct and into thread-static
- values managed in tclResult.c.
-
- * generic/tclCmdAH.c (Tcl_CatchObjCmd, Tcl_ErrorObjCmd):
- Updated to call the new TclGet/SetReturnOptions routines to do
- much of their work.
-
- * generic/tclInt.h (TclGetReturnOptions,TclSetReturnOptions):
- * generic/tclResult.c (TclGetReturnOptions,TclSetReturnOptions):
- New utility routines to get/set the return options of an interp.
- Intent is that these routines will be converted to public routines
- after TIP approval.
-
- * generic/tclCmdMZ.c (TclProcessReturn,TclMergeReturnOptions):
- * generic/tclResult.c (TclProcessReturn,TclMergeReturnOptions):
- Move internal utility routines from tclCmdMZ.c to tclResult.c.
-
- * generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_CreateInterp, Tcl_DeleteInterp):
- * generic/tclResult.c (TclTransferResult): Rework so that
- iPtr->returnOpts can be NULL when there are no special options.
-
- * generic/tclResult.c (TclRestoreInterpState): Plug potential
- memory leak.
-
-2004-10-21 Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
-
- * generic/tclBasic.c: Various changes to [clock format] that,
- * generic/tclClock.c: together, make it roughly twice as fast
- * generic/tclInt.h: while all tests in the test suite
- * library/clock.tcl: continue to pass.
-
-2004-10-20 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
-
- * win/Makefile.in (install-msgs): Fixed a problem with the
- * win/Makefile.in (install-tzdata): installation of timezone data
- and message catalogs. They used the installed tcl library
- directory, not the source library. Before it was installed.
- Switched to source lib dir. Thanks to Kevin for the help in
- figuring this out.
-
-2004-10-20 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * generic/tclThreadTest.c (ThreadEventProc): Corrected subtle
- bug where the returned (char *) from Tcl_GetStringResult(interp)
- continued to be used without copying or refcounting, while
- activity on the interp continued. That's not safe, and recent
- changes demonstrated the lack of safety with failing tests
- thread-4.3 and thread-4.5.
-
-2004-10-19 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * generic/tclDictObj.c (DictWithCmd): Make sure all paths (that
- are not themselves error paths) do not lose the result code.
-
-2004-10-19 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * generic/tclInt.h (Tcl*InterpState): New internal routines
- * generic/tclResult.c (Tcl*InterpState): TclSaveInterpState,
- TclRestoreInterpState, and TclDiscardInterpState are superior
- replacements for Tcl_(Save|Restore|Discard)Result. Intent is that
- these routines will be converted to public routines after TIP approval.
- Interfaces for these routines were shamelessly stolen from Itcl.
-
- * generic/tclBasic.c (TclEvalObjvInternal):
- * generic/tclDictObj.c (DictUpdateCmd, DictWithCmd):
- * generic/tclIOGT.c (ExecuteCallback):
- * generic/tclTrace.c (Trace*Proc,TclCheck*Traces,TclCallVarTraces):
- Callers of Tcl_*Result updated to call the new routines. The
- calls were relocated in several cases to perform save/restore
- operations only when needed.
-
- * generic/tclEvent.c (HandleBgErrors):
- * generic/tclFCmd.c (CopyRenameOneFile):
- Calls to Tcl_*Result that were eliminated because they appeared
- to serve no useful purpose, typically saving/restoring an error
- message, only to throw it away.
-
-2004-10-18 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_CreateInterp,Tcl_DeleteInterp):
- * generic/tclCmdAH.c (Tcl_CatchObjCmd):

- * generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileReturnCmd):
- * generic/tclExecute.c (TclCompEvalObj):
- * generic/tclInt.h (Interp):
- * generic/tclProc.c (TclUpdateReturnInfo):
- Place primary storage of the -level and -code information in private
- fields of the Interp struct, rather than in a DictObj. This should
- significantly improve performance of TclUpdateReturnInfo.
-
-2004-10-17 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
- * generic/tclResult.c: removed unused variable [Bug 1048588].
- Thanks to Daniel South.
-
-2004-10-15 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * generic/tclCmdMZ.c (TclProcessReturn): Now that primary
- * generic/tclProc.c (TclUpdateReturnInfo): storage for the
- errorInfo and errorCode values are internal fields, we can set
- them at the time of the [return] command, and not have to wait
- until the specified number of "-level"s have popped.
-
- * generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_CreateInterp,Tcl_DeleteInterp,
- TclEvalObjvInternal,Tcl_LogCommandInfo,TclAddObjErrorInfo):
- * generic/tclCmdAH.c (Tcl_CatchObjCmd):
- * generic/tclEvent.c (BgError,ErrAssocData,Tcl_BackgroundError,
- HandleBgErrors,BgErrorDeleteProc):
- * generic/tclExecute.c (TclCreateExecEnv,TclDeleteExecEnv):
- * generic/tclIOUtil.c (comments only):
- * generic/tclInt.h (ExecEnv,Interp, ERR_IN_PROGRESS):
- * generic/tclInterp.c ([tclInit]):
- * generic/tclMain.c (comments only):
- * generic/tclNamesp.c
- (Tcl_CreateNamespace,Tcl_DeleteNamespace,TclTeardownNamespace):
- * generic/tclProc.c (TclUpdateReturnInfo):
- * generic/tclResult.c
- (Tcl_ResetResult,TclTransferResult):
- * generic/tclTrace.c (CallVarTraces):
- Reworked management of the "errorInfo" data of an interp.
- That information is now primarily stored in a new private
- (Tcl_Obj *) field of the Interp struct, rather than using a
- global variable ::errorInfo as the primary storage. The
- ERR_IN_PROGRESS flag bit value is no longer required to manage
- the value in its new location, and is removed. Variable traces
- are established to support compatibility for any code expecting
- the ::errorInfo variable to hold the information.
-
- ***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
- Code that sets traces on the ::errorInfo variable may notice a
- difference in timing of the firing of those traces. Code that
- uses the value ERR_IN_PROGRESS.

- hacks that it has to have.
-
- * doc/man.macros, *.3: Update .AS macro so it can know how wide to

-
- * generic/tclFileName.c (DoGlob, TclGlob): Stop messy sharing of
- interpreter result and instead use a private object for collecting
- the result of the glob. This simplifies TclGlob quite a lot.
- * generic/tclIOUtil.c (Tcl_FSMatchInDirectory): Simplify by
- removing some nesting. Also standardize variable names.
- (FsAddMountsToGlobResult): Force updates to the list to be done
- in-place, putting a side-condition of non-shared-ness on the
- resultPtr argument to Tcl_FSMatchInDirectory, but everything would
- have broken before if that was shared *anyway*.
-
- * generic/tclEncoding.c (LoadTableEncoding): Removed reference to
- Tcl interpreter; it wasn't needed as direct object use is more
- efficient.
-
- * generic/tclPathObj.c: Made this file follow the style rules in
- the Engineering Manual more closely, and also take advantage of
- the internal object manipulation macros more.
-
- * generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_SwitchObjCmd): Reorganized to have fewer
- magic flag variables and to separate the code that scans for a
- match from the code that processes a match body.

- It is a poor practice to directly set or append to the value
- of the objResult of an interp, because that value might be
- shared, and in that circumstance a Tcl_Panic() will be the

- with safer alternatives, often using the Tcl_AppendResult()

- Reworked management of the "errorCode" data of an interp.
- That information is now primarily stored in a new private
- (Tcl_Obj *) field of the Interp struct, rather than using a
- global variable ::errorCode as the primary storage. The
- ERROR_CODE_SET flag bit value is no longer required to manage
- the value in its new location, and is removed. Variable traces
- are established to support compatibility for any code expecting

-
- ***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
- Code that sets traces on the ::errorCode variable may notice a
- difference in timing of the firing of those traces.

-
- * tests/clock.test (clock-34.*): Removed an antibug that forced

-
- * doc/DictObj.3, doc/dict.n: Clarified that a dictionary is not

- (Tcl_DictObjNext): Make calling this after Tcl_DictObjDone non-fatal
- as that simplifies a number of internal APIs. This doesn't break any
- existing working code as it is a case which previously caused a panic.

-
- * generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_EvalObjEx): Removed the flag bit value

- Continued refactoring of [clock] for TIP 173 changes.
- Broke the free-form parser apart so that the Bison parser
- is responsible for only parsing, while clock.tcl handles
- relative times like "next Thursday", "next January". This
- change is needed to make timezones other than :localtime
- and :Etc/UTC work with free-form scanning. This change closes
- out the issue identified as being "for another day" in
- my log message of 2004-09-08. The refactored code also
- eliminates the last known references to TclpStrftime and
- TclGetDate, so those routines (including compat/strftime.c)
- have been removed. The refactoring also has the benefit
- that all storage in the Bison parser is now on the C stack,
- eliminating any need for mutex protection around [clock scan].
- Also, changed the Makefiles so that 'make gendate' is
- available on Windows as well as Unix.
-
- * generic/tclCmdAH.c (Tcl_FormatObjCmd): Removed some grubby
- * generic/tclObj.c (SetBooleanFromAny): work-around code

-
- * generic/tclCompCmds.c: Tolerate [append] syntax errors
- * tests/appendComp.test (8.1): at compile time, and allow runtime
- to raise the error (or succeed if a redefined [append] allows).
-
- * generic/tclBasic.c: Reworked management of the interp
- * generic/tclCompile.c: flag ERR_ALREADY_LOGGED, to reduce
- * generic/tclExecute.c: its exposure. Still left several
- * generic/tclNamesp.c: references that are just too nice
- on performace to do away with. These changes also resolve
- an inconsistency in the ::errorInfo values produced by
- [namespace eval x error foo bar] and
- [namespace eval x {error foo bar}].
-
- * generic/tclExecute.c (TclCompEvalObj): Simplified
- the TclCompEvalObj routine. Much housekeeping now reliably
- happens elsewhere. [Patch 1031949]
-
-2004-09-21 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>

- * generic/tclCmdMZ.c ([return]):
- * generic/tclProc.c (TclUpdateReturnInfo):
- * generic/tclResult.c (Tcl_SetErrorCodeVA, Tcl_SetObjErrorCode)
- (TclTransferResult): Refactored so that all errorCode setting
- flows through Tcl_SetObjErrorCode(). This greatly reduces the
- number of different places in the code that need to know details
- about an internal bitflag field of the Interp struct. Also
- places errorCode setting in one place for easier future mods.
-
-2004-09-17 Kevin B.Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
-
- * generic/tclDate.c: Revised tclGetDate.y to use bison instead
- * generic/tclGetDate.y: of yacc to build the parser, eliminating

- * unix/Makefile.in: 'sed' postprocessing. Rebuilt the parser.
-
-2004-09-14 Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
-
- * generic/tclClock.c (ClockOldscanObjCmd): Silenced a compiler
- warning (long passed as a param where unsigend long was
- expected). 'Unsigned long' is wrong, but the fix is really
- to change the signature of TclGetDate to return a structure of
- its 'yy' variables and then do the remaining work inside
- clock.tcl. But, as I said on 2004-09-08, that's a job for

-
-2004-09-11 Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
-
- * generic/tclClock.c (TclMktimeObjCmd): Corrected a bad check

- representations. Thanks to KBK for this! [Bug 868489]
-
- * generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_Seek): Make sure wide seeks do not fail to

-
-2004-09-10 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
-
- * generic/tcl.h: Micro formatting fixes.

-
-2004-09-11 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * generic/tclNamespace.c (TclGetNamespaceForQualName): Resolved
- longstanding inconsistency in the treatment of the TCL_NAMESPACE_ONLY
- flag revealed by testing the 2004-09-09 commits against Itcl.
- TCL_NAMESPACE_ONLY now acts as specified in the pre-function
- comment, forcing resolution in the passed in context namespace.
- It has been incorrectly forcing resolution in the interp's current
- namespace.
-
-2004-09-10 Kevin Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
-
- * library/clock.tcl: Fixed a bug where %z always put a plus
- sign on the time zone in :localtime.
- * tests/clock.test: Added test case for the above bug.
-
-2004-09-10 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
- * generic/tclExecute.c (INST_CONCAT1): added a peephole
- optimisation for concatting an empty string. This enables

- fastest execution.
-
-2004-09-09 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>

-
-2004-09-09 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * generic/tclNamesp.c (Tcl_ForgetImport): Corrected faulty
- * tests/namespace.test: logic that relied exclusively on string
- matching and failed in the presence of [rename]s. [Bug 560297]
- Also corrected faulty prevention of [namespace import] cycles.
- [Bug 1017299]
-
-2004-09-08 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_CreateInterp): Removed obsolete
- field for storing the string-based command procedure of built-in
- commands. We no longer have any string-based built-in commands!
-
-2004-09-08 Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
-
- * compat/strftime.c (_conv): Corrected a problem where hour 0
- would format as a blank format group with %k.
- * doc/clock.n: Corrected a buglet in the header information.
- [Bug 1024058]
- * generic/tclClock.c (TclClockMktimeObjCmd): Fixed a bug where
- the month was scanned incorrectly in -timezone :localtime.
- * tests/clock.test (clock-34.*,clock-40.1, clock-41.1): Adjusted the
- clock-34.* test cases so that the consistency check is performed
- in :localtime rather than the current time zone. This change
- allows dealing with issues where the C library has a different
- idea of DST conversion than Tcl. (Real fix would be to break
- TclGetDate into separate parser and time converter, and do
- the time conversion in clock.tcl. That's for another day.)
- Added regression test case for the bug where month was scanned
- incorrectly in -timezone :localtime. [Bug 1023779] Added
- regression test case for %k at the zero hour.
-
-2004-09-07 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>

-
-2004-09-07 Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
-
- * doc/clock.n: Documented the default -format, and changed
- references to a (nonexistent) msgcat command to refer to
- the msgcat package. [Bug 1023870]
- * generic/tclTimer.c: Removed a premature optimisation that
- attempted to store the assoc data in the client data; the

- Implementation of TIPs #173 and #209.
-
- The [clock] command is now a Tcl ensemble, with most of its
- functionality written in Tcl and callouts to C code only to
- access low-level functions such as localtime, mktime and
- tzset.
-
- In addition to the functionality changes called out in the two
- TIPs, it is worth noting that the [clock] command in a safe
- slave interpreter is now an alias to the [clock] command in the
- master, and that [clock] is otherwise not expected to function
- entirely correctly in safe interps. C code that simply does
- Tcl_MakeSafe needs to be aware that [clock] may need special
- handling. (It appears unlikely that such code actually exists.)
-
- One incompatibility of note is that if the time zone cannot
- be determined from the TZ, TCL_TZ environment variables, or
- from the Windows control panel, so that the C library must be
- used for date and time conversions, then times outside the
- range of time_t will fail; they used to return bad data silently.
-
- Many thanks to all the many people who assisted with testing,
- debugging, criticism of the specification, and localisation.
- Deserving of particular mention are Joe English, Clif Flynt, Donal
- K. Fellows, Jeff Hobbs, Cameron Laird, Arjen Markus, Reinhard Max,
- Christopher Nelson, Steve Offutt, Donald G. Porter, Pascal
- Scheffers, Peter da Silva and Richard Suchenwirth-Bauersachs.

-
- * generic/tclEvent.c (Tcl_Finalize): stuffed memory leak

- TclFinalizeThreadData (done from within Tcl_FinalizeThread()).
- We basically just repeat the TclFinalizeThreadData() once more
- before tearing down TSD keys in TclFinalizeSynchronization().
- There should be more elaborate mechanism in place for handling
- such issues, based on thread cleanup handlers registered on the
- OS level. Such change requires much more work and would also
- require TIP because some visible parts of Tcl API would have to
- be modified. In the meantime, this will do.
-
- * generic/tclNotify.c (TclFinalizeNotifier): Added conditional

- * generic/tclBasic.c (DeleteInterpProc): reverted the modification
- of 3 days ago, as the leak of [Bug 983660] is now handled by the
- change in TclCleanupByteCode.
- * generic/tclCompile.c (TclCleanupByteCode): let each bytecode
- remove its references to literals at interp deletion, without
- updating the dying literal table.
- * generic/tclLiteral.c (TclDeleteLiteralTable): with the above
- change to TclCleanupByteCode, this function now removes a single
- reference to the literal object and cleans up its own structures.
-
-2004-07-08 Kevin Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
-
- * win/tclWinInit.c (AppendEnvironment): Silenced a compilation
- warning about a type mismatch.
-
-2004-07-07 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
- * generic/tclCompile.c (TclCompileScript): fix for [Bug 458361].
- Single-word scripts are compiled with an unshared cmdName to avoid
- shimmering between bytecode and cmdName reps.
-
-2004-07-07 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * generic/tclCmdMZ.c (TclMergeReturnOptions): Simplified logic and
- removed potential memory leak. [Bug 986257].
-
-2004-07-07 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * tools/man2help2.tcl (setTabs, IPmacro): Added support for the
- more advanced *roff macros used in Tk's doc/bind.n
-
- * generic/tclObj.c (TclInitObjSubsystem): Declare all current
- object types.
-
-2004-07-06 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * tests/cmdMZ.test (cmdMZ-return-2.17): Added a test that a word
- containing backslash-quoted value is treated correctly.
-
- * generic/tclCompile.c (TclWordKnownAtCompileTime): [Bug 986196]
- Corrected flaw above and the flaw that caused TCL_TOKEN_SIMPLE_WORDs
- to have their original word value copied ( "{a b}" ) rather than the
- actual value ( "a b" ). Thanks to Kevin Kenny for report and tests.
-
-2004-07-06 Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
-
- * tests/cmdMZ.test (cmdMZ-return-2.15,cmdMZ-return-2.16):
- Added a test that a return code containing spaces is correctly
- returned.
-
-2004-07-06 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * tools/man2html2.tcl (IPmacro, setTabs): Added support for the
- more advanced *roff macros used in Tk's doc/bind.n
-
-2004-07-05 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
- * generic/tclBasic.c (DeleteInterpProc): fix for [Bug 983660],
- found by pspjuth. Tear down the global namespace before freeing
- the interp handle, to allow the bytecodes to free their non-shared
- literals.
- * generic/tclLiteral.c (TclReleaseLiteral): moved special code for
- self-ref so that it is also used for non-shared literals. Possible
- bug found by inspection.
-
-2004-07-03 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
- * generic/tclExecute.c (ExprRoundFunc):
- * tests/expr-old.test (39.1): added support for wide integers to
- round(); [Bug 908375], reported by Hemang Lavana.
-
-2004-07-03 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
- * generic/tclCompile.h:
- * generic/tclInt.decls:
- * generic/tclIntDecls.h:
- * generic/tclStubInit.c: Moved declaration of TclCompEvalObj()
- from tclCompile.h to the internal stubs table, for compiler
- experimentation.
-
-2004-07-02 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
- * generic/regcomp.c (stid): correct minor pointer size error
-
- * generic/tclPipe.c (TclCreatePipeline): applied TIP #202 patch
- * doc/exec.n, tests/exec.test: that adds 2>@1 as a
- special case redirection of stderr to the result output.
-
-2004-07-02 Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
-
- * tests/io.test: Changed several tests to run the event
- loop rather than just calling [update] periodically, avoiding
- intermittent failures (usually in io-29.32) that stemmed from
- unreaped processes on Windows.
- * tests/winPipe.test (winpipe-1.11): Fixed a bug that caused
- test to fail if the path name of the working directory contained
- whitespace [Bug 678430]
-
-2004-07-01 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * tests/fileSystem.test: Added test for [Bug 970529]
-
-2004-07-01 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * win/README.binary, win/README: Updated references to Tcl and Tk
- 8.4 to point to 8.5 instead. Thanks to Theo Verelst for spotting
- this.
- * generic/tcl.h: Added note to help prevent those changes from
- getting missed in the future.
-
- * doc/Namespace.3, doc/load.n, doc/Limit.3: Typo fixes and remove
- duplicate documentation. [Bug 983146]
-
-2004-06-30 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>

-
-2004-06-30 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- TIP#188 IMPLEMENTATION
-
- * doc/string.n, tests/string.test: Add 'wideinteger' to things
- * generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_StringObjCmd): that can be tested for with
- the [string is] subcommand. [Patch 940915, by Kevin Kenny]
-
-2004-06-29 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * win/tclWinInit.c: Corrected reference counting flaw in
- recent changes. Thanks to Pat Thoyts. [Bug 981893].
-
-2004-06-29 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * win/tclWin32Dll.c: fix to compilation with VC++ 5.2
-
-2004-06-29 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * library/safe.tcl: Make sure that the temporary variable is
- local to the namespace and not inadvertently global. [Bug 981733]
-
-2004-06-24 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * tests/unixNotfy.test: Modified constraints so that testing with
- a threaded tclsh (not tcltest) will not hang.
-
-2004-06-23 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * generic/tclThreadStorage.c: Corrected type casting errors that led
- to calculation of a negative index value, thus accesses outside the
- threadStorageCache array, thus memory corruption. Crash observed on
- Mac OS X platform.
-
-2004-06-23 Joe Mistachkin <joe@mistachkin.com>
-
- * generic/tclThread.c: Implements platform independent thread storage
- * generic/tclThreadStorage.c: mechanism and fixes associated bugs on
- platforms where there is limited thread local storage space
- (Win98/WinNT4). [Patch 976496]
-
- * generic/tclInt.decls:
- * generic/tclIntDecls.h: Added thread storage functions to the
- * generic/tclStubInit.c: internal stubs table.
-
- * unix/Makefile.in:
- * unix/configure:
- * unix/tcl.m4:
- * win/makefile.vc:
- * win/rules.vc:
- * win/Makefile.in: Modified the unix, VC++, and Cygwin build systems
- * win/configure: to include the new "tclThreadStorage.c" and the new
- * win/tcl.m4: USE_THREAD_STORAGE define.
-
-2004-06-23 Pat Thoyts <patthoyts@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * tests/io.test: Added -force to 18.1 and 18.2. This was failing
- on WinXP.
-
- * tests/winFCmd.test: Added a cleanup to winFCmd-16.11 to avoid a
- failure in 16.12.
-
- * tests/eofchar.data: Added -kb option to ensure a binary checkout
- to win32 systems. This fixes a failure in io-61.1
-
- * win/makefile.vc: fix for bug #977369 about launching tclsh to
- generate a tclConfig.sh with the nmake build system
-
-2004-06-23 Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
-
- * tests/winDde.test (createChildProcess): Added a 200-ms delay
- (with the event loop live) when shutting down the test DDE server
- process, With the delay in place, nuisance failures of tests
- winDde-4.2, -6.5, and -6.6 appear to be much less frequent.
- [Bug #957449]
-
-2004-06-23 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * tests/*.test: Standardize use of platform constraints.
-
- * unix/tclUnixInit.c (GetStackSize, TclpCheckStackSpace):
- * unix/tclUnixThrd.c (TclpThreadGetStackSize): Added code to check
- whether the C stack is about to be exceeded, from [Patch 746378]
- by Joe Mistachkin but with substantial revisions.
-
-2004-06-22 Kevin Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
-
- * generic/tclEvent.c (NewThreadProc): Fixed broken build on
- Windows caused by missing TCL_THREAD_CREATE_RETURN.
-
- * tests/stack.test (stack-3.1): Corrected nuisance error in
- threaded builds.
-
-2004-06-22 Zoran Vasiljevic <vasiljevic@users.sf.net>
-
- * generic/tclEvent.c:
- * generic/tclInt.h:
- * unix/tclUnixNotfy.c:
- * unix/tclUnixThrd.c:
- * win/tclWinThrd.c: [Bug #770053]. See bug report for
- more information about what it does.
-
- * tests/unixNotfy.test: rewritten to use tcltest::threadReap
- to gracefully wait for the test thread to exit. Otherwise
- we got a race condition with main thread exiting before the
- test thread. This exposed the long-standing Tcl lib issue
- with resource garbage-collection on application exit.
-
-2004-06-21 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * win/tclWin32Dll.c (DllMain, _except_dllmain_detach_handler,
- TclpCheckStackSpace, _except_checkstackspace_handler,
- TclWinCPUID, _except_TclWinCPUID_detach_handler):
- * win/tclWinChan.c (Tcl_MakeFileChannel,
- _except_makefilechannel_handler):
- * win/tclWinFCmd.c (DoRenameFile,
- _except_dorenamefile_handler, DoCopyFile,
- _except_docopyfile_handler):
- Rework pushing of exception handler function pointer
- so that compiling with gcc -O3 works. Remove empty
- function call to avoid compiler warning. Mark the
- DllMain function as noinline to avoid compiler
- error from duplicated asm labels in generated code.
-
-2004-06-21 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * generic/tclThreadAlloc.c (Ptr2Block): Rewrote so as to maximize
- the chance of detecting and reporting a memory inconsistency without
- relying on things being consistent. [Bug 975895]
-
-2004-06-18 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * tests/load.test: Relaxed strictness of error message matching
- for test load-2.3 so that it will pass on Mac OSX.
-
- * generic/tclEncoding.c: Static TclFindEncodings -> FindEncodings.
- * generic/tclInt.h: Updated TclpFindExecutable() so that failed
- * generic/tclUtil.c: attempts to find the executable are saved
- * unix/tclUnixFile.c: just as successful finds are. [Patch 966053]
- * unix/tclUnixTest.c:
-
-2004-06-18 Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
-
- * tests/winFCmd.test (winFCmd-16.12): Changed test to
- compute the target directory, so as not to fail if the
- user's HOME isn't the root.
-
-2004-06-19 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * unix/tcl.m4: autoconf 2.5 fixes in Darwin section.
- * unix/configure: autoconf-2.57
-
-2004-06-18 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * unix/tclUnixInit.c (localeTable): Added some more locale to
- encoding mapping info from Jim Huang <jserv@kaffe.org>
-
- * 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]
-
- * win/tclWinInit.c (SetDefaultLibraryDir): Fix logic, simplify and
- add comments.
-
-2004-06-17 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * generic/tclObj.c: Added missing space in panic message.
-
- * 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.
-
-2004-06-16 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * doc/library.n: Moved variables ::auto_oldpath and
- * library/auto.tcl: ::unknown_pending into ::tcl namespace.
- * library/init.tcl: [Bugs 808319, 948794]
-
-2004-06-15 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * doc/binary.n: Added some notes to the documentation of the 'a'
- format to address the point raised in [RFE 768852].
-
-2004-06-15 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
- * unix/tclConfig.sh.in (TCL_EXTRA_CFLAGS): set to @CFLAGS@, which
- is the configure-time CFLAGS. Addendum to m4 change on 2004-05-26.
-
-2004-06-14 Kevin Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
-
- * 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.
-
-2004-06-11 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * doc/Encoding.3: Removed bogus claims about tcl_libPath.
-
- * generic/tclInterp.c (Tcl_Init): Stopped setting the
- tcl_libPath variable. [tclInit] can get all its directories
- without it.
-
- * tests/unixInit.test: Modified test code that made use of
- tcl_libPath variable.
-
- * 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.
-
- * generic/tclInterp.c: Updated [tclInit] to make $env(TCL_LIBRARY) an
- absolute path, and to include the scriptdir,runtime configuration value
- on the search path for init.tcl.
-
- * unix/tclUnixInit.c: The routines Tcl_Init() and TclSourceRCFile()
- * win/tclWinInit.c: had identical implementations for both win and
- * generic/tclInterp.c: unix. Moved to a single generic implementation.
- * generic/tclMain.c:
- * library/init.tcl:
- * generic/tclInitScript.h (removed):
- * unix/Makefile.in:
- * win/tcl.dsp:
-
- * unix/configure.in: Updated TCL_PACKAGE_PATH value to
- * win/configure.in: handle --libdir configuration.
-
- * unix/configure.in: autoconf-2.57
- * win/configure.in:
-
- * generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_CreateInterp): Moved call to
- TclInitEmbeddedConfigurationInformation() earlier in
- Tcl_CreateInterp() so that other parts of interp creation
- and initialization may access and use the config values.
-
-2004-06-11 Kevin Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
-
- * win/tclAppInit.c: Restored the 'setargv' procedure when
- compiling with mingw. Apparently, the command line parsing in
- mingw doesn't work as well as that in vc++, and the result was
- (1) that winPipe-8.19 failed, and (2) that 'make test' would
- work at all only with TESTFLAGS='-singleproc 1'. [Bug 967195]
-
-2004-06-10 Zoran Vasiljevic <vasiljevic@users.sf.net>
-
- * generic/tclIOUtil.c: removed forceful setting of the
- private cached current working directory rep from
- within the Tcl_FSChdir(). We delegate this task to
- the Tcl_FSGetCwd() which does this task anyway.
- The relevant code is still present but disabled
- temporarily until the change proves correct. The Tcl
- test suite passes all test with the given change so
- I suppose it is good enough.
-
-2004-06-10 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * unix/tclUnixInit.c (TclpInitLibraryPath): Disabled addition of
- * win/tclWinInit.c (TclpInitLibraryPath): relative-to-executable
- directories to the library search path. A first step in reform of
- Tcl's startup process.
-
- ***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.
-
- * tests/unixInit.test: Modified tests to suit above changes.
-
- * generic/tclPathObj.c: Corrected [file tail] results when operating
- on a path produced by TclNewFSPathObj(). [Bug 970529]
-
-2004-06-09 Zoran Vasiljevic <vasiljevic@users.sf.net>
-
- * generic/tclIOUtil.c: partially corrected [Bug 932314].
- Also, corrected return values of Tcl_FSChdir() to
- reflect those of the underlying platform-specific call.
- Originally, return codes were mixed with those of Tcl.
-
-2004-06-08 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
- * generic/tclCompile.c:
- * generic/tclExecute.c: handle warning [Bug 969066]
-
-2004-06-08 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * generic/tclHash.c (RebuildTable): Move declaration of variable
- so it is only declared when it is used. [Bug 969068]
-
-2004-06-07 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * doc/lsearch.n: Added correct option to example. [Bug 968219]
-
-2004-06-05 Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
-
- * generic/tcl.h: Corrected Tcl_WideInt declarations so that the mingw
- build works again.
- * generic/tclDecls.h: Changes to the tests for
- * generic/tclInt.decls: clock frequency in
- * generic/tclIntDecls.h: Tcl_WinTime
- * generic/tclIntPlatDecls.h: so that any clock frequency
- * generic/tclPlatDecls.h: is accepted provided that
- * generic/tclStubInit.c: all CPU's in the system share
- * tests/platform.test (platform-1.3): a common chip, and hence,
- * win/tclWin32Dll.c (TclWinCPUID): presumably, a common clock.
- * win/tclWinTest.c (TestwincpuidCmd) This change necessitated a
- * win/tclWinTime.c (Tcl_GetTime): small burst of assembly code
- to read CPU ID information, which was added as TclWinCPUID in the
- internal Stubs. To test this code in the common case of a
- single-processor machine, a 'testwincpuid' command was added to
- tclWinTest.c, and a test case in platform.test. Thanks to Jeff
- Godfrey and Richard Suchenwirth for reporting this bug. [Bug
- #976722]
-
-2004-06-04 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * generic/tcl.h: Restored #include <stdio.h> to tcl.h,
- rejecting the "fix" for "Bug" 945570. Tcl_FSSeek() needs the
- values of SEEK_SET, etc. and too many extensions rely on tcl.h
- providing stdio.h for them.
-
-2004-06-02 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
- * win/tclWinFile.c (TclpFindExecutable): when using
- GetModuleFileNameA (Win9x), convert from CP_ACP to WCHAR then
- convert back to utf8. Adjunct to 2004-04-07 fix.
-
-2004-06-02 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
- * tests/winPipe.test (winpipe-6.1): blocking set to 1 before
- closing to ensure we get an exitcode. The windows pipe channel
- driver doesn't differentiate between a blocking and non-blocking
- close just yet, but will soon. Part of [Bug 947693]
-
-2004-06-02 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * doc/file.n: fix to documentation of 'file volumes' (Bug 962435)
-
-2004-06-01 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
- * win/makefile.vc: check for either MSDEVDIR or MSVCDIR being in
- the environment, for VC7. [Bug 942214]
-
- * generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_SetChannelOption): -buffersize wasn't
- understanding hexidecimal notation nor was reporting number
- conversion errors. The behavior to silently ignore settings
- outside the acceptable range of Tcl_SetChannelBufferSize
- (<10 or >1M) is unchanged. This silent ignoring behavior
- might be up for review soon..
-
-2004-05-30 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
- * win/tclWinPipe.c:
- * win/tclWinPort.h: Reworked the win implementation of
- Tcl_WaitPid to support exitcodes in the 'signed short' range.
- Even though this range is non-portable, it is valid on windows.
- Detection of exception codes are now more accurate. Previously,
- an application that exited with ExitProcess((DWORD)-1); was
- improperly reported as exiting with SIGABRT.
-
-2004-05-30 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * generic/tclInterp.c: Added comments describing the purposes of
- each function in the limit implementation and rewrote the names of
- some non-public functions for greater clarity of purpose.
- * doc/interp.n: Added note about what happens when a limited
- interpreter creates a slave interpreter.
- * doc/Limit.3: Added manual page for the resource limit
- subsystem's C API. [Bug 953903]
-
-2004-05-29 Joe English <jenglish@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * doc/global.n, doc/interp.n, doc/lrange.n:
- Fix minor markup errors.
-
-2004-05-28 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * doc/*.n: Added examples to many (too many to list) more man pages.
-
-2004-05-25 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
- * generic/tclExecute.c:
- * generic/tclVar.c: using (ptrdiff_t) instead of (int) casting to
- correct compiler warnings [Bug 961657], reported by Bob Techentin.
-
-2004-05-27 Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
-
- * tests/clock.test: Added a single test for the presence of %G
- in [clock format], and conditioned out the clock-10.x series if
- they're all going to fail because of a broken strftime() call.
- [Bug 961714]
-
-2004-05-27 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * generic/tclHash.c (CompareStringKeys): Added #ifdef to allow
- people to instruct this function to use strcmp(). [FRQ 951168]
-
- * generic/tclVar.c: Moved declarations into #if guards so they
- only happen when required.
- * unix/tclUnixPort.h: Guard declaration of strtod() so it is only
- enabled when we don't have a declaration in stdlib.h
- * unix/tclUnixThrd.c (Tcl_CreateThread): Added declarations
- * unix/tclUnixTest.c (AlarmHandler): and casts so that
- * unix/tclUnixChan.c (TtyModemStatusStr): all functions are
- * generic/tclScan.c (Tcl_ScanObjCmd): defined before use
- * generic/tclDictObj.c (InvalidateDictChain): and no cross-type
- * generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_StringObjCmd): uses are performed.
-
- The overall effect is to make building with gcc with the
- additional flags -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes produce
- no increase in the total number of warnings (except for main(),
- which is undeclared for traditional reasons.)
-
-2004-05-26 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
- * unix/Makefile.in: Rework configure ordering to TCL_LINK_LIBS,
- * unix/tcl.m4: ENABLE_SHARED, CONFIG_CFLAGS, & ENABLE_SYMBOLS
- * unix/configure: before TCL_EARLY_FLAGS and TCL_64BIT_FLAGS
- * unix/configure.in: (about 400 lines earlier) in configure.in.
- This forces CFLAGS configuration to be done before many tests,
- which is needed for 64-bit builds and may affect other builds.
- Also make CONFIG_CFLAGS append to CFLAGS directly instead of using
- EXTRA_CFLAGS, and have LDFLAGS append to any existing value.
- [Bug #874058]
- * unix/dltest/Makefile.in: change EXTRA_CFLAGS to DEFS
-
-2004-05-26 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl: Correction to debug prints and testing
- * library/tcltest/pkgIndex.tcl: if TCLTEST_OPTIONS value. Corrected
- * tests/tcltest.test: double increment of numTestFiles in
- -singleproc 1 configurations. Updated tcltest-19.1 to tcltest 2.1
- behavior. Corrected tcltest-25.3 to not falsely report a failure
- in tcltest.test. Bumped to tcltest 2.2.6. [Bugs 960560, 960926]

-
- * doc/http.n (http::config): add -urlencoding option (default utf-8)
- * library/http/http.tcl: that specifies encoding conversion of
- * library/http/pkgIndex.tcl: args for http::formatQuery. Previously
- * tests/http.test: undefined, RFC 2718 says it should be
- utf-8. 'http::config -urlencoding {}' returns previous behavior,
- which will throw errors processing non-latin-1 chars.
- Bumped http package to 2.5.0.

- the entries are correctly removed at the right time. [Bug 960410]
-

-2004-05-25 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
- * generic/tclNamesp.c (Tcl_FindNamespaceVar):
- * tests/namespace.test (namespace-17.10-12): reverted commit of
- 2004-05-23 and removed the tests, as it interferes with the
- varname resolver and there are apps that break (AlphaTk). A fix
- will have to wait for Tcl9.
-
- * generic/tclVar.c: Caching of namespace variables disabled: no
- simple way was found to avoid interfering with the resolver's idea
- of variable existence. A cached varName may keep a variable's name
- in the namespace's hash table, which is the resolver's criterion
- for existence.
-
- * tests/namespace.c (namespace-17.10): testing for interference
- between varname caching and name resolver.
-
-2004-05-25 Kevin Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
-
- * tests/winFCmd.test: Correct test for the presence of a CD-ROM so
- that it doesn't misdetect some other sort
- of filesystem with a write-protected root as
- being a CD-ROM drive. [Bug 918267]
-
-2004-05-25 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * tests/winPipe.test: Protect against path being set
- * tests/unixInit.test: Unset path when done.
- * tests/unload.test (unload-3.1): Verify [pkgb_sub] does not exist.
- Delete interps when done.
- * tests/stringComp.test: stop re-use of string.test test names
- * tests/regexpComp.test: stop re-use of regexp.test test names
- * tests/namespace.test (namespace-46.3): Verify [p] does not exist.
- * tests/http.test: Clear away the custom [bgerror] when done.
- * tests/io.test: Take care to use namespace variables.
- * tests/autoMkindex.test (autoMkindex-5.2): Use variable "result"
- that gets cleaned up.
- * tests/exec.test: Clean up the "path" array.
- * tests/interp.test (interp-9.3): Initialize res, so prior values
- cannot make the test fail.
- * tests/execute.test (execute-8.1): Updated to remove the trace
- set on ::errorInfo . When left in place, that trace can cause
- later tests to fail.
-
-2004-05-25 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * generic/tclBasic.c: Removed references to Tcl_RenameCommand from
- * generic/tcl.h: comments. [Bug 848440, second part]
-
- * tests/fCmd.test: Rewrote tests that failed consistently on NFS
- so they either succeed (through slightly more liberal matching of
- the results) or are constrained to not run. [Bug 931312]
-
- * doc/bgerror.n: Use idiomatic open flags for working with log
- files. [Bug 959602]
-
-2004-05-24 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
- * generic/tclExecute.c (VerifyExprObjType): use GET_WIDE_OR_INT to
- properly have tclIntType used for smaller values. This corrects
- TclX bug 896727 and any other 3rd party extension that created
- math functions but was not yet WIDE_INT aware in them.
-
-2004-05-24 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * generic/tclInterp.c (TclInitLimitSupport): Made limits work on
- platforms where sizeof(void*)!=sizeof(int). [Bug 959193]
-
-2004-05-24 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
- * doc/set.n: accurate description of name resolution process,
- referring to namespace.n for details [Bug 959180]
-
-2004-05-23 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
- * generic/tclNamesp.c (Tcl_FindNamespaceVar): [Bug 959052] fixed,
- insuring that no "zombie" variables are found.
- * 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.
-
-2004-05-22 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
- * generic/tclVar.c (TclObjLookupVar, TclObjUnsetVar2): fix for new
- (in tcl8.4) exteriorisations of [Bug 736729] due to the use of
- tclNsVarNameType obj types. Reenabling the use of this objType
- ("VAR ref absolute" benchmark down to 66 ms, from 230).
- Added comments in TclLookupSimpleVar explaining my current
- understanding of [Bug 736729].
-
-2004-05-22 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
- * generic/tclVar.c: fix for [Bug 735335]. The use of
- tclNsVarNameType objs is still disabled, pending resolution of
- [Bug 736729].
-
-2004-05-21 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
- * tests/namespace.test (namespace-41.3): removed the {knownBug}
- constraint: [Bug 231259] is closed since nov 2001, and the fix of
- [Bug 729692] (INST_START_CMD) makes the test succeed.
-
-2004-05-21 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): Move a few
- declarations a short distance so pre-C99 compilers can cope. Also
- fix so TCL_COMPILE_DEBUG path compiles...
-
-2004-05-21 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
- * 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
-
-2004-05-20 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * generic/tclInterp.c (TclLimitRemoveAllHandlers):
- * generic/tclBasic.c (DeleteInterpProc):
- * tests/interp.test (interp-34.7):
- Ensure that all limit callbacks are deleted when their interpreters
- are deleted. [Bug 956083]
-
-2004-05-19 Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
-
- * win/tclWinFile.c (TclpMatchInDirectory): fix for an issue
- where there was a sneak path from Tcl_DStringFree to
- SetErrorCode(0). The result was that the error code could
- be reset between a call to FindFirstFileEx and the check
- of its status return, leading to a bizarre error return of
- {POSIX unknown {No error}}. (Found in unplanned test -
- no incident logged at SourceForge.)
-
-2004-05-19 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * tests/interp.test (interp-34.3): Rewrite this test to see if a
- time limit can catch a tight bytecode loop, a maximally aggressive
- denial-of-service attack.
- * generic/tclInterp.c (Tcl_LimitCheck): Fix the sense of checks to
- see whether a time limit has been extended.
-
- * tests/*.test: Many minor fixes, including ensuring that every
- test is run (so constraints control whether the test is doing
- anything) and making sure that constraints are always set using
- the API instead of poking around inside tcltest's internal
- datastructures. Also got rid of all trailing whitespace lines
- from the test suite!
-
-2004-05-19 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
-
- * generic/tclIO.c: Fixed [SF Tcl Bug 943274]. This is the same problem
- * generic/tclIO.h: as [SF Tcl Bug 462317], see ChangeLog entry
- 2001-09-26. The fix done at that time is incomplete. It
- is possible to get around it if the actual read
- operation is defered and not executed in the event
- handler itself. Instead of tracking if we are in an
- read caused by a synthesized fileevent we now track if
- the OS has delivered a true event = actual data and
- bypass the driver if a read finds that there is no
- actual data waiting. The flag is cleared by a short or
- full read.
-
- ***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY*** for channel drivers.
-
-2004-05-17 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * generic/tclPathObj.c: fix to (Bug 956063) in 'file dirname'.
- * tests/cmdAH.test: added test for this bug.
-
- * doc/FileSystem.3: better documentation of refCount requirements
- of some FS functions (Bug 956126)
-
-2004-05-19 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * generic/tclTest.c (TestgetintCmd): Made the tests in get.test check
- * tests/get.test: Tcl_GetInt() since the core now
- avoids that function.
-
-2004-05-18 Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
-
- * compat/strftime.c (_fmt, ISO8601Week):
- * doc/clock.n:
- * tests/clock.test: Major rework to the handling of ISO8601
- week numbers. Now passes all the %G and %V test cases on
- Windows, Linux and Solaris [Bugs #500285, #500389, and #852944]
-
-2004-05-18 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * doc/append.n, doc/upvar.n: Added example.
-
-2004-05-18 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-

- [Patch 909911]
-
-2004-05-18 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-

-
- * doc/interp.n: Added user documentation for the TIP#143 resource
- limits and some examples.
-
- * generic/tclInterp.c (Tcl_LimitCheck, Tcl_LimitTypeReset): Reset
- the limit-exceeded flag when removing a limit.
-
-2004-05-18 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
- * generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): added comments to
- classify the variables according to their use in TEBC.
-
-2004-05-17 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * doc/global.n, doc/uplevel.n: Added an example.
-
- * tests/info.test (info-3.1): Corrected test result back to what
- it used to be in Tcl 7.* now that command counts are being
- correctly kept.
-
- * generic/tclExecute.c (TEBC:INST_START_CMD): Make sure that the
- command-count is always advanced. Allows TIP#143 limits to tell
- that work is being done.
-
- * doc/list.n: Updated example to fit with the unified format.
- * doc/seek.n: Added some examples.
-
-2004-05-17 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * win/tclWinFile.c:
- * tests/cmdAH.test: fix to (Bug 954263) where 'file executable'
- was case-sensitive.

-2004-05-17 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * doc/OpenFileChnl.3: Documented type of 'offset' argument to

- indirection for compiledLocals addressing.
-
-2004-05-16 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
- * generic/tclExecute.c (INST_CALL_FUNC1): bugfix; restored
- (DE)CACHE_STACK_INFO pair around the call - the user defined math
- function could cause a recursive call to TEBC.
-
-2004-05-16 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
- * generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_DeleteInterp):
- * generic/tclExecute.c (INST_START_CMD): interp deletion now
- modifies the compileEpoch, eliminating the need for the check for
- interp deletion in INST_START_CMD.
-
-2004-05-16 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
- * generic/tclCompile.h:
- * generic/tclCompile.c:
- * generic/tclExecute.c: changed implementation of {expand}, last
- chance while in alpha as ...
-
- ***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
- Scripts precompiled with ProComp under previous tcl8.5a versions
- may malfunction due to changed instruction numbers for
- INST_LIST_INDEX_IMM, INST_LIST_RANGE_IMM and INST_START_CMD.
-
-2004-05-14 Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
-
- * generic/tclInt.decls: Promoted TclpLocaltime and TclpGmtime
- * generic/tclIntDecls.h: from Unix-specific stubs to the generic
- * generic/tclIntPlatDecls.h: internal Stubs table. Reran 'genstubs'
- * generic/tclStubInit.c:
- * unix/tclUnixPort.h:
-
- * generic/tclClock.c: Changed a buggy 'GMT' timezone specification
- to the correct 'GMT0'. [Bug #922848]
-
- * unix/tclUnixThrd.c: Moved TclpGmtime and TclpLocaltime to
- unix/tclUnixTime.c where they belong.
-
- * unix/tclUnixTime.c (TclpGmtime, TclpLocaltime, TclpGetTimeZone,
- ThreadSafeGMTime [removed],
- ThreadSafeLocalTime [removed],
- SetTZIfNecessary, CleanupMemory):
- Restructured to make sure that the same mutex protects
- all calls to localtime, gmtime, and tzset. Added a check
- in front of those calls to make sure that the TZ env var
- hasn't changed since the last call to tzset, and repeat
- tzset if necessary. [Bug #942078] Removed a buggy test
- of the Daylight Saving Time information in 'gettimeofday'
- in favor of applying 'localtime' to a known value.
- [Bug #922848]
-
- * tests/clock.test (clock-3.14): Added test to make sure that
- changes to $env(TZ) take effect immediately.
-
- * win/tclWinTime.c (TclpLocaltime, TclpGmtime):
- Added porting layer for 'localtime' and 'gmtime' calls.
-
-2004-05-14 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
- * generic/tclExecute.c:
- * generic/tclCompile.h: the math functions receive a pointer to
- top of the stack (tosPtr) instead of the execution environment
- (eePtr). First step towards a change in the execution stack
- management - it is now only used within TEBC.
-
-2004-05-13 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- TIP#143 IMPLEMENTATION
-
- * generic/tclExecute.c (TclCompEvalObj, TclExecuteByteCode):

- * generic/tclInterp.c (Tcl_Limit*): Public limit API.
- * generic/tcl.decls:
- * tests/interp.test: Basic tests of command limits.
-
- * doc/binary.n: TIP#129 IMPLEMENTATION [Patch 858211]
- * generic/tclBinary.c: Note that the test suite probably has many more
- * tests/binary.test: failures now due to alterations in constraints.
-
-2004-05-12 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
- Optimisations for INST_START_CMD [Bug 926164].
- * generic/tclCompile.c (TclCompileScript): avoid emitting
- INST_START_CMD as the first instruction in a bytecoded Tcl_Obj. It
- is not needed, as the checks are done before calling TEBC.
- * generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): runtime peephole
- optimisation: check at INST_POP if the next instruction is
- INST_START_CMD, in which case we fall through.
-
-2004-05-11 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * doc/split.n, doc/join.n: Updated examples and added more.

-2004-05-10 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * doc/scan.n: Added examples.
-
-2004-05-10 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
- * win/tclWinPipe.c (BuildCommandLine): Moved non-obvious appending
- logic to outside the loop and added commentary for its purpose. Also
- use the existence of contents in the linePtr rather than the scratch
- DString post the append, as this more clear.
-
- (TclpCreateProcess): When under NT, with no console, and executing a
- DOS application, the path priming does not need an ending space as
- BuildCommandLine() will do this for us.
-
-2004-05-08 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * generic/tclFileName.c:
- * generic/tclIOUtil.c: remove some compiler warnings on MacOS X.
-
-2004-05-07 Chengye Mao <chengye.geo@yahoo.com>
-
- * win/tclWinPipe.c: refixed bug 789040 re-entered in rev 1.41.
- Let's be careful and don't re-enter previously fixed bugs.
-
-2004-05-08 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * doc/format.n: Added examples.

-
- * generic/tclFileName.c:
- * generic/tclIOUtil.c:

- registered root volumes were not handled correctly as glob
- patterns in all circumstances.
-
-2004-05-06 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
- * generic/tclInt.h:
- * generic/tclObj.c (TclFreeObj): made TclFreeObj use the new macro
- TclFreeObjMacro(), so that the allocation and freeing of Tcl_Obj
- is defined in a single spot (the macros in tclInt.h), with the
- exception of the TCL_MEM_DEBUG case.
- The #ifdef logic for the corresponding macros has been reformulated
- to make it clearer.

-
-2004-05-05 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
- * win/tclWinSock.c (SocketEventProc) : connect errors should
- fire both the readable and writable handlers because this is
- how it works on UNIX [Bug 794839]
-
- * generic/tclEncoding.c (TclFinalizeEncodingSubsystem):
- FreeEncoding(systemEncoding); moved to before the hash table
- itereation as it was causing a double free attempt under some
- conditions.
-
- * win/coffbase.txt: Added the tls extension to the list of
- preferred load addresses.
-
-2004-05-04 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
- * tests/fileSystem.test (filesystem-1.39): replace 'file volumes'

- more permanent replacement.
-
-2004-04-30 Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
-

-
- * doc/open.n, doc/close.n: Updated (thanks to David Welton) to be
- clearer about pipeline errors and added example to open(n) that shows
- simple pipeline use. [Patches 941377,941380]

- about DLL_THREAD_ATTACH, so disable the notices.
-
-2004-04-24 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * generic/tclPort.h:
- * macosx/Makefile:
- * unix/Makefile.in: followup on tcl header reform [FR 922727]:
- removed use of relative #include paths in tclPort.h to allow
- installation of private headers outside of tcl source tree; added
- 'unix' dir to compiler header search path; add newly required
- tcl private headers to Tcl.framework on Mac OSX.
-
-2004-04-23 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
-
- * generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_SetChannelOption): Fixed [SF Tcl Bug
- 930851]. When changing the eofchar we have to zap the related

-
-2004-04-25 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * generic/tclPathObj.c: fix to [Bug 940281]. Tcl_FSJoinPath
- will now always return a valid Tcl_Obj when the input is valid.
- * generic/tclIOUtil.c: fix to [Bug 931823] for a more consistent
- Tcl_FSPathSeparator() implementation which allows filesystems
- not to implement their Tcl_FSFilesystemSeparatorProc if they
- wish to use the default '/'. Also fixed associated memory leak
- seen with, e.g., tclvfs package.
- * doc/FileSystem.3: documented Tcl_FSJoinPath return values
- more clearly, and Tcl_FSFilesystemSeparatorProc requirements.
-
-2004-04-23 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
- * win/tclWin32Dll.c: Removed my mistake from 4/19 of adding an
- exit handler to TclWinInit. TclWinEncodingsCleanup called from
- TclFinalizeFilesystem does the Tcl_FreeEncoding for us.
-
- * win/tclWinChan.c (Tcl_MakeFileChannel) : Case for CloseHandle
- returning zero and not throwing a
- RaiseException(EXCEPTION_INVALID_HANDLE) now being done.
-
-2004-04-22 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
- * generic/tclEvent.c: TclSetLibraryPath's use of caching the
- stringrep of the pathPtr object to TclGetLibraryPath called from
- another thread was ineffective if the original's stringrep had
- been invalidated as what happens when it gets muted to a list.
-
- * win/tclWinTime.c: If the Tcl_ExitProc (StopCalibration) is
- called from the stack frame of DllMain's PROCESS_DETACH, the
- wait operation should timeout and continue.
-
- * generic/tclInt.h:

-2004-04-21 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * doc/Hash.3: Added note to Tcl_{First,Next}HashEntry docs that
- deleting the element they return is supported (and is in fact the
- only safe update you can do to the structure of a hashtable while
- an iteration is going over it.)
-
- * doc/bgerror.n: Added example from David Welton. [Patch 939473]
-
- * doc/after.n: Added examples from David Welton. [Patch 938820]
-
-2004-04-19 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
- * win/tclWin32Dll.c: Added an exit handler in TclWinInit() so
- tclWinTCharEncoding could be freed during Tcl_Finalize().
-
- * generic/tclEncoding.c: Added FreeEncoding(systemEncoding) in
- TclFinalizeEncodingSubsystem because its ref count was incremented
- in TclInitEncodingSubsystem.

- * win/configure: define TCL_LIB_FLAG, TCL_BUILD_LIB_SPEC,
- * win/configure.in: TCL_LIB_SPEC, TCL_PACKAGE_PATH in tclConfig.sh.
-
-2004-04-06 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- Patch 922727 committed. Implements three changes:
-
- * 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/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.
-
- * 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):
-
- End Patch 922727.
-
- * tests/unixInit.test (unixInit-3.1): Default encoding on Darwin
- systems is utf-8. Thanks to Steven Abner (tauvan). [Bug 928808]
-
-2004-04-06 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * 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]
-
-2004-04-02 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
- * generic/tclCompile.c:
- * generic/tclInt.h: removed the macro TCL_ALIGN() from tclInt.h,
- replaced by the static macro ALIGN() in tclCompile.c [Bug 926445]
-
-2004-04-02 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
- * generic/tclCompile.h: removed redundant #ifdef _TCLINT
- [Bug 928415], reported by tauvan.
-
-2004-04-02 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * tests/tcltest.test: Corrected constraint typos: "nonRoot" ->
- "notRoot". Thanks to Steven Abner (tauvan). [Bug 928353]
-
-2004-04-01 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * generic/tclInt.h: Removed obsolete tclBlockTime* declarations.
- [Bug 926454]
-
-2004-04-01 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * 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.
-
-2004-03-31 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * 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.
-
-2004-03-30 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * generic/tclHash.c (HashStringKey): Cleaned up. This function is
- not faster, but it is a little bit clearer.
- * generic/tclLiteral.c (HashString): Applied logic from HashObjKey.
- * generic/tclObj.c (HashObjKey): Rewrote to fix fault which hashed
- every single-character object to the same hash bucket. The new
- code is shorter, simpler, clearer, and (happily) faster.
-
-2004-03-30 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
- * 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.
-
-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
- * tests/rename.test (6.1): mechanics of the async tests in TEBC,
- doing it now at command start instead of every 16 instructions.
-
-2004-03-30 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * generic/tclFileName.c: Fix to Windows glob where the pattern is
- * generic/tclIOUtil.c: a volume relative path or a network
- * tests/fileName.test: share [Bug 898238]. On windows 'glob'
- * tests/fileSystem.test: will now return the results of
- 'glob /foo/bar' and 'glob \\foo\\bar' as 'C:/foo/bar', i.e. a
- correct absolute path (rather than a volume relative path).
-
- Note that the test suite does not test commands like
- 'glob //Machine/Shared/*' (on a network share).
-
-2004-03-30 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * generic/tclPathObj.c: Fix to filename bugs recently
- * tests/fileName.test: introduced [Bug 918320].
-
-2004-03-29 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * generic/tclMain.c (Tcl_Main, StdinProc): Append newline only
- * tests/basic.test (basic-46.1): to incomplete scripts
- as part of multi-line script construction. Do not add an extra
- trailing newline to the complete script. [Bug 833150]
-
-2004-03-28 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
- * generic/tclCompile.c (TclCompileScript): corrected possible
- segfault when a compilation returns TCL_OUTLINE_COMPILE after
- having grown the compile environment [Bug 925121].
-
-2004-03-27 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
-
- * doc/array.n: added documentation for trace-realted behaviour of
- 'array get' [Bug 449893]
-

- * tests/fileSystem.test: path normalization. [Bug 923568].
- Also fixed another volume relative bug found while testing.
-
-2004-03-24 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * generic/tclNamesp.c (NsEnsembleImplementationCmd): Fix messed up
- handling of strncmp result which just happened to work in some
- libc implementations. [Bug 922752]
-
-2004-03-23 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>

- * doc/StringObj.3: Inverted the sense of the documentation of how

- * generic/tclGetDate.y (TclGetDate): Fix so that
- [clock scan <timeOfDay> -gmt true] uses the GMT base date
- instead of the local one. [Bug 913513]
- * tests/clock.test: Added test cases for wrong ISO8601 week number
- [Bug 500285] and wrong GMT base date [Bug 913513]. Several tests
- still fail on Windows, and these are actual faults in [clock scan].
- Fix is still pending.
- * generic/tclDate.c: Regenerated.
-
-2004-03-08 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * generic/tclFileName.c: Fix to 'glob -path' near the root
- * tests/fileName.test: of the filesystem. [Bug 910525]
-
-2004-03-08 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * generic/tclParse.c (TclParseInit): Modified TclParseInit so
- * generic/tclTest.c ([testexprparser]): that Tcl_Parse initialization
- conforms to documented promised about what fields will not be
- modified by what Tcl_Parse* routines. [Bug 910595]
-
-2004-03-05 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * win/configure: Regen.
- * win/configure.in: Check for define of
- MWMO_ALERTABLE in winuser.h.
- * win/tclWinPort.h: If MWMO_ALERTABLE
- is not defined in winuser.h then define it.
- This is needed for Mingw.
-
-2004-03-05 Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
-
- * generic/tclTest.c: Modified TesteventObjCmd to use
- a Tcl_QueuePosition in place of an 'int' for the enumerated
- queue position, to avoid a compiler warning on SGI.
- (Bug #771960).
-
-2004-03-05 Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
-
- * tests/registry.test: Applied fix from Patch #910174 to
- make the test for an English-language system include any
- country code, rather than just English-United States.1252.
- Thanks to Pat Thoyts for the changes.
-
-2004-03-04 Pat Thoyts <patthoyts@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * tests/registry.test: Applied fixed from #766159 to skip two
- tests on Win98 that depend on a Unicode registry (NT specific).
-
-2004-03-04 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * generic/tclInt.h (TclParseInit): Factored the common code
- * generic/tclParse.c (TclParseInit): for initializing a Tcl_Parse
- * generic/tclParseExpr.c: struct into one routine.
-
-2004-03-04 Pat Thoyts <patthoyts@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * library/reg/pkgIndex.tcl: Added TIP #100 support to the
- * win/tclWinReg.c: registry package (patch #903831)
- This provides a Windows test of the TIP #100 mechanism and
- a sample to show how unloading an extension can be done.
-
-2004-03-04 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * unix/dltest/pkgua.c: Fix minor syntax problems. [Bug 909288]
-
-2004-03-03 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
- *** 8.5a1 TAGGED FOR RELEASE ***
-
- * changes: updated for 8.5a1
-
-2004-03-03 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
- * win/makefile.vc: default environment variable for VC++ is
- %MSDevDir% not %MSVCDir%, although vcvars32.bat sets both.
-
- * win/tclWinNotify.c (Tcl_WaitForEvent) : Allows an idling
- notifier to service "Asynchronous Procedure Calls" from its wait
- state. Only useful for extension authors who decide they might
- want to try "completion routines" with WriteFileEx(), as an
- example. From experience, I recommend that "completion ports"
- should be used instead as the execution of the callbacks are more
- managable.
-
-2004-03-01 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com>

-
- * unix/tcl.m4 (SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS): Allow 64-bit enabling on
- IRIX64-6.5* systems. [Bug 218561]
- * unix/configure: autoconf-2.57
-
- * generic/tclTrace.c (TclCheckInterpTraces): The TIP 62
- * generic/tclTest.c (TestcmdtraceCmd): implementation introduced a
- * tests/trace.test (trace-29.10): bug by testing the CallFrame
- level instead of the iPtr->numLevels level when deciding what traces
- created by Tcl_Create(Obj)Trace to call. Added test to expose the
- error, and made fix. [Request 462580]
-

- very long hostnames. [Bug 888777]
-
-2004-02-25 Pat Thoyts <patthoyts@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * win/tclWinDde.c: Removed some gcc warnings - except for the
- -Wconversion warning for GetGlobalAtomName. gcc is just wrong
- about this.
-
-2004-02-24 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- IMPLEMENTATION OF TIP#100 FROM GEORGIOS PETASIS
- * generic/tclLoad.c (Tcl_UnloadObjCmd): Implementation.
- * tests/unload.test: Test suite.
- * unix/dltest/pkgua.c: Helper for test suite.
- * doc/unload.n: Documentation.
- Also assorted changes (mostly small) to several other files.
-
-2004-02-23 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * generic/regc_locale.c (cclass): Buffer was having its size reset
- instead of being released => memleak. [Bug 902562]
-
-2004-02-21 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * generic/tclLoad.c (Tcl_LoadObjCmd): Fixed memory leak due to
- an improper error exit route.
-
-2004-02-20 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
- * win/tclWinSock.c (SocketThreadExitHandler): Don't call
- TerminateThread when WaitForSingleObject returns a timeout.
- Tcl_Finalize called from DllMain will pause all threads. Trust
- that the thread will get the close notice at a later time if it
- does ever wake up before being cleaned up by the system anyway.
-
-2004-02-17 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * doc/tcltest.n:
- * library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl: Changed -verbose default value to
- {body error} so that detailed information on unexpected errors in
- tests is provided by default, even after the fix for [Bug 725253]
-
-2004-02-17 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
- * tests/unixInit.test (unixInit-7.1):
- * unix/tclUnixInit.c (TclpInitPlatform): ensure the std fds exist
- to prevent crash condition [Bug #772288]
-
-2004-02-17 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileSwitchCmd): Bozo mistake in
- memory releasing order when in an error case. [Bug 898910]
-
-2004-02-16 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
-
- * generic/tclTrace.c (TclTraceExecutionObjCmd)
- (TclTraceCommandObjCmd): fix possible mem leak in trace info.
-
-2004-02-12 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * win/tclWinInit.c (AppendEnvironment):
- Use the tail component of the passed in
- lib path instead of just blindly using
- lib+4. That worked when lib was "lib/..."
- but fails for other values. Thanks go to
- Patrick Samson for pointing this out.
-
-2004-02-10 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
- * win/nmakehlp.c: better macro grepping logic.
-
-2004-02-07 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
- * win/makefile.vc:
- * win/rules.vc:
- * win/tcl.rc:
- * win/tclsh.rc: Added an 'unchecked' option to the OPTS macro so a
- core built with symbols can be linked to the non-debug enabled C
- run-time. As per discussion with Kevin Kenny. Called like this:
-
- nmake -af makefile.vc OPTS=unchecked,symbols
-
- This clarifies the meaning of the 'g' naming suffix to mean only that
- the binary requires the debug enabled C run-time. Whether the binary
- contains symbols or not is a different condition.
-
-2004-02-06 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * doc/clock.n: Removed reference to non-existent [file ctime].
-
-2004-02-05 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
- * docs/tclvars.n: Added clarification of the tcl_platform(debug)
- var that it only refers to the flavor of the C run-time, and not
- whether the core contains symbols.
-
-2004-02-05 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * generic/tclFileName.c (SkipToChar): Corrected CONST and
- type-casting issues that caused compiler warnings.
-
-2004-02-04 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * generic/tclCmdAH.c (StoreStatData): Removed improper refcount
- decrement of the varName parameter. This error was causing
- segfaults following test cmdAH-28.7.
-
- * library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl: Corrected references to
- non-existent $name variable in [cleanupTests]. [Bug 833637]
-
-2004-02-03 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl: Corrected parsing of single
- command line argument (option with missing value) [Bug 833910]
- * library/tcltest/pkgIndex.tcl: Bump to version 2.2.5.
-
-2004-02-02 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
- * generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_Ungets): Fixes improper filling of the
- channel buffer. This is the buffer before the splice. [Bug 405995]
-
-2004-02-01 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
- * tests/winPipe.test: more pass-thru commandline verifications.
- * win/tclWinPipe.c (BuildCommandLine): Special case quoting for
- '{' not required by the c-runtimes's parse_cmdline().
- * win/tclAppInit.c: Removed our custom setargv() in favor of
- the work provided by the c-runtime. [Bug 672938]
-
- * win/nmakehlp.c: defensive techniques to avoid static buffer
- overflows and a couple envars upsetting invokations of cl.exe
- and link.exe. [Bug 885537]
-
- --------
- * tests/winPipe.test: Added proof that BuildCommandLine() is not
- doing the "N backslashes followed a quote -> insert N * 2 + 1
- backslashes then a quote" rule needed for the crt's
- parse_cmdline().
- * win/tclWinPipe.c: Fixed BuildCommandLine() to pass the new
- cases.
-
-2004-01-30 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
- * win/makefile.vc: Use the -GZ compiler switch when building for
- symbols. This is supposed to emulate the release build better to
- avoid hiding problems that only show themselves in a release
- build.
-
-2004-01-29 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * generic/tclPathObj.c: fix to [Bug 883143] in file normalization
-
-2004-01-29 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * doc/file.n:
- * generic/tclFCmd.c
- * generic/tclTest.c
- * library/init.tcl
- * mac/tclMacFile.c
- * tests/fileSystem.test: fix to [Bug 886352] where 'file copy
- -force' had inconsistent behaviour wrt target files with
- insufficient permissions, particular from vfs->native fs.
- Behaviour of '-force' is now always consistent (and now
- consistent with behaviour of 'file delete -force'). Added new
- tests and documentation and cleaned up the 'simplefs' test
- filesystem.
-
- * generic/tclIOUtil.c
- * unix/tclUnixFCmd.c
- * unix/tclUnixFile.c
- * win/tclWinFile.c: made native filesystems more robust to C code
- which asks for mount lists.
-
- * generic/tclPathObj.c: fix to [Bug 886607] removing warning/error
- with some compilers.
-
-2004-01-28 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * generic/tclObj.c (SetBooleanFromAny): Rewrite to do more
- efficient string->bool conversion.
- Many other minor whitespace/style fixes to this file too.
-
-2004-01-27 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
- * win/nmakehlp.c: Use '.\nul' as the sourcefile name instead of
- 'nul' so VC 5.2 doesn't try searching the path for it and failing
- with a possible dialogbox popping up about having to add a CD to
- an empty drive. Also added a SetErrorMode() call to disable any
- dialogs that cl.exe or link.exe might create. [Bug 885537]
-
-2004-01-22 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * doc/file.n: clarified documentation of 'file system' [Bug 883825]
- * tests/fCmd.test: improved test result in failure case.
-
-2004-01-22 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * tests/fileSystem.test: 3 new tests
- * generic/tclPathObj.c: fix to [Bug 879555] in file normalization.
- * doc/filename.n: small clarification to Windows behaviour with
- filenames like '.....', 'a.....', '.....a'.
-
- * generic/tclIOUtil.c: slight improvement to native cwd caching
- on Windows.
-
-2004-01-21 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
- * doc/Panic.3: Mentions of 'panic' and 'panicVA' removed from
- the documentation.
-
-2004-01-21 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * doc/FileSystem.3:
- * generic/tcl.decls:
- * generic/tclCmdAH.c
- * generic/tclDecls.h
- * generic/tclFCmd.c
- * generic/tclFileName.c
- * generic/tclFileSystem.h
- * generic/tclIOUtil.c
- * generic/tclInt.decls

- * unix/tclUnixFile.c
- * win/tclWin32Dll.c
- * win/tclWinFCmd.c
- * win/tclWinFile.c
- * win/tclWinInt.h
-
- Three main issues accomplished: (1) cleaned up variable names in
- the filesystem code so that 'pathPtr' is used throughout. (2)
- applied a round of filesystem optimisation with better handling
- and caching of relative and absolute paths, requiring fewer
- conversions. (3) clarifications to the documentation,
- particularly regarding the acceptable refCounts of objects.
- Some new tests added. Tcl benchmarks show a significant
- improvement over 8.4.5, and on Windows typically a small
- improvement over 8.3.5 (Unix still appears to require
- optimisation). TCL_FILESYSTEM_VERSION_2 introduced, but for
- internal use only. There should be no public incompatibilities
- from these changes. Thanks to dgp for extensive testing.
-
-2004-01-19 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
- * win/tclWinPipe.c (Tcl_WaitPid): Fixed a thread-safety problem
- with the process list. The delayed cut operation after the wait
- was going stale by being outside the list lock. It now cuts
- within the lock and does a locked splice for when it needs to
- instead. [Bug 859820]
-
-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
- a debug suffix was still 'd', now is 'g'.
-
-2004-01-14 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
-
- * 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): cosmetic changes.
-
-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
- bug in debug code.
-
-2004-01-11 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
-
- * win/tclWinThrd.c (Tcl_ConditionNotify): condPtr must be
- dereferenced to see if there are waiters else uninitialized
- datum is manipulated. [Bug 849007 789338 745068]
-
-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***
-
- * win/makefile.vc:
- * win/rules.vc: Added -DTCL_NO_DEPRECATED usage to makefile.vc.
- Called like this: nmake -af makefile.vc CHECKS=nodep
-
-2004-01-09 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
-
- * generic/tclIOUtil.c: fix to infinite loop in
- TclFinalizeFilesystem [Bug 873311]
