Kenny <kennykb@acm.org> - - * library/clock.tcl: Continued rationalizing the code, eliminating - numerous redundant [mc] calls.

Fellows <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk> - - * unix/Makefile.in: Add remaining dependency info.

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

The test is still marked as knownbug, pending - resolution of what is actually the correct return value ([Bug - 1354540]) - -2005-11-09 Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@acm.org> - - * generic/tclTimer.c: Changed [after] so that it behaves correctly - * tests/timer.test: with negative arguments [Bug 1350293] and - arguments that overflow a 32-bit word.

Fellows <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk> - - * generic/tclTrace.c (TraceVarEx): Factor out heart of Tcl_TraceVar2 - (TclTraceVariableObjCmd,TraceVarProc): Use the new internal API to - arrange for the clientData to be cleaned up at the same time as the - rest of the main trace record.

+ * generic/tclClock.c: Moved a tiny bit more of [clock format] from run
+ * library/clock.tcl: time to compile time, and fixed a l10n bug in the
+ process. [Bug 1371446]. Also, conditoned the call to SetupTimeZone to
+ speed the common case where TZData($timezone) already exists, and
+ achieved a puny speedup by making ::tcl::clock::getenv not throw
+ errors.
+ * unix/Makefile.in: Made some changes to support a 'make' command that
+ is present on some antiquated versions of Solaris.
+
+2005-12-01 Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
+
+ * library/clock.tcl: Continued rationalizing the code, eliminating
+ numerous redundant [mc] calls. Added another time boost by precompiling

+2005-12-01 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>

+
+ * generic/tclClock.c: fix warning.

+ * unix/tcl.m4 (Darwin): fix error when MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET unset
+ * unix/configure: regen.
+
+2005-11-30 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>
+
+ * unix/Makefile.in: Add dependency information relating to tclCompile.h
+ since when the list of opcodes changes it is usually useful to rebuild
+ everything that depends on it (but which is nonetheless a small
+ fraction of the total set of Tcl source files).
+
+ ***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY*** for bytecode savers/loaders. See below
+
+ * generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileSwitchCmd): Arrange for very simple
+ [switch] invokations to be compiled into hash lookups into jump tables;
+ only a very specific kind of [switch] can be safely compiled this way,
+ but that happens to be the most common kind. This makes around 5-10%
+ difference to the speed of execution of clock.test.
+ * generic/tclExecute.c (TEBC:INST_JUMP_TABLE): New instruction to allow
+ for jumps to locations looked up in a hashtable. Requires a new AuxData
+ type, tclJumptableInfoType (supported by the functions DupJumptableInfo
+ and FreeJumptableInfo in tclCompCmds.c) so anything that saves bytecode
+ containing this *must* be updated!
+
+2005-11-30 Kevin Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
+
+ * generic/tclClock.c: Fixed a bad refcount in previous commit that led
+ to a corrupted heap. Also silenced a warning that some compilers gave
+ about the excessively long constant for JULIAN_SEC_POSIX_EPOCH. Also
+ fixed a bug where [clock format] would fail in the :localtime zone for
+ times before the Posix Epoch. Thanks to Miguel Sofer for pointing out
+ all of these. Also rationalized the code a little bit by moving parts
+ of [clock scan] into C, eliminating some code that was duplicated in
+ the C and Tcl layers.
+
+2005-11-29 Kevin Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
+
+ * generic/tclBasic.c: Moved a big part of [clock format] down
+ * generic/tclClock.c: to the C level in order to make it go faster.
+ * generic/tclInt.h: Preliminary measurements suggest that it
+ * generic/clock.tcl: more than doubles in speed with this change.
+
+2005-11-29 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>
+
+ * generic/tclCmdIL.c (Tcl_LsearchObjCmd): Allow [lsearch -regexp] to
+ process REs that contain backreferences. This expensive mode of
+ operation is only used if the RE would otherwise cause a compilation
+ failure. [Bug 1366683]
+
+2005-11-28 Kevin Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
+
+ * tools/tclZIC.tcl (convertTimeOfDay): Corrected a typo that caused
+ wrong DST transitions in any time zone where the transition is
+ specified as local Standard Time (as opposed to wall-clock or UTC).
+ (Also updated the code to be bignum-safe.)
+ * tests/clock.test (clock-51.1): Added regression test for the above.
+ * library/tzdata: Updated to Olson's 'tzdata2005o' (changes for Cuba,
+ Nicaragua, Jordan, and Georgia) and regenerated. Thanks to Paul
+ Mackerras for reporting this problem.

+
+ * unix/configure.in: fix obsolete autoconf macros, sync gratuitous
+ formatting/ordering differences with tk/unix/configure.in.
+
+ * unix/Makefile.in: add CFLAGS to tclsh/tcltest link to make executable
+ linking the same as during configure (needed to avoid losing any linker
+ relevant flags in CFLAGS, in particular flags that cannot be in
+ LDFLAGS). Avoid concurrent linking of tclsh and compiling of
+ tclTestInit.o or xtTestInit.o during parallel make.
+ (checkstubs, checkdoc, checkexports): dependency and Darwin fixes
+ (dist): add new macosx files.
+
+ * unix/tclLoadDyld.c (TclpDlopen): use NSADDIMAGE_OPTION_WITH_SEARCHING

+
+ * generic/tcl.h: add Darwin specifc configure overrides for TCL_WIDE
+ defines to support fat compiles of ppc and ppc64 at the same time,
+ (replaces Darwin CVS fix by emoy, rdar://3693001). add/correct location
+ of version numbers in macosx files.
+
+ * generic/tclInt.h: clarify fat compile comment.
+
+ * unix/tclUnixPort.h: add Darwin specifc configure overrides to support

+
+ * unix/Makefile.in (install-libraries): Updated Makefile to new

+ This fixes the ifneeded/provide mismatch reported when trying to

+
+2005-11-18 Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
+

+ (the corresponding branch is eliminated by the optimiser otherwise).
+
+2005-11-18 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c (TclFinalizeIOSubsystem): Applied Pat Thoyts' patch
+ for [Bug 1359094]. This moves the retrieval of the next channel state
+ to the end of the loop, as the called closeproc may close other
+ channels, i.e. modify the list we are iterating, invalidating any
+ pointer retrieved earlier.
+
+2005-11-18 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclListObj.c: Restored the SetListFromAny routine to the
+ * generic/tclObj.c: "list" Tcl_ObjType, and restored the

+
+ * generic/tclInt.h:
+ * generic/tclNamesp.c:
+ * tests/namespace.test: fix for [Bug 1354540] and [Bug 1355942]. The
+ new tests 7.3-6 and the modified 51.13 fail due to the unrelated [Bug
+ 1355342]
+
+ * tests/trace.test: added tests 20.13-16 for [Bug 1355342]
+
+2005-11-12 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_DeleteCommandFromToken):
+ * generic/tclObj.c (Tcl_GetCommandFromObj): more partial fixes for
+ [Bug 1354540] - making sure that cached references to a command being
+ deleted cannot be made reusable by a delete trace.
+
+2005-11-12 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclNamesp.c (Tcl_FindCommand): Do not find commands in dead
+ namespaces on the path. Partial fix for [Bug 1354540].
+
+2005-11-11 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclInt.h: Revised TclParseNumber interface to enable
+ * generic/tclScan.c: revision to the [scan] command implementation
+ * generic/tclStrToD.c: to permit tests scan-4.44,55 to pass again.
+ [Bug 1348067].
+
+2005-11-11 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_DeleteCommandFromToken):
+ * generic/tclObj.c (Tcl_GetCommandFromObj): bump the cmd epoch early
+ to insure that cached references to this command are invalidated.
+ Partial fix for [Bug 1352734] - at least insures that namespace-51.13
+ does not cause a panic. The test is still marked as knownbug, pending

+ 1354540])
+
+2005-11-09 Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
+
+ * generic/tclTimer.c: Changed [after] so that it behaves correctly
+ * tests/timer.test: with negative arguments [Bug 1350293] and
+ arguments that overflow a 32-bit word. [Bug 1350291]
+
+2005-11-08 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * tests/compile.test: Updated tests with changed behavior

+ * tests/expr-old.test:
+ * tests/expr.test:
+ * tests/parseExpr.test:

+ * tests/string.test:
+
+2005-11-08 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
+
+ * unix/tclUnixFCmd.c (MAX_READDIR_UNLINK_THRESHOLD): reduce to 130
+ based on errors seen on OS X 10.3 with lots of links in a dir.
+ [Bug 1034337 followup]
+
+2005-11-09 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>
+
+ * unix/Makefile.in (gdb-test): Added a new target to make it easier to
+ run the test suite inside a debugger.
+
+2005-11-08 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * tests/compExpr-old.test: Updated tests with changed behavior due
+ to addition of bignums.
+
+ * tests/expr.test: Portable tests expr-46.13-18 [Bug 1341368]
+
+ * generic/tclPkg.c: Corrected inconsistencies in the value returned
+ * tests/pkg.test: by Tcl_PkgRequire(Ex) so that the returned
+ values will always agree with what is stored in the package database.
+ This way repeated calls to Tcl_PkgRequire(Ex) have the same results.
+ Thanks to Hemang Lavana. [Bug 1162286].
+
+2005-11-08 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>
+
+ * generic/tclTrace.c (TraceVarEx): Factor out heart of Tcl_TraceVar2
+ (TclTraceVariableObjCmd,TraceVarProc): Use the new internal API to
+ arrange for the clientData to be cleaned up at the same time as the
+ rest of the main trace record. This simplifies the code a bit at the
+ same time.
+
+2005-11-07 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+ * tests/trace.test (trace-13.2-4): added tests to detect leak, see [Bug
+ 1348775]. The recently added trace-8.9 test is now 13.4.
+
+2005-11-07 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>
+
+ * tests/dict.test (dict-19.2): arrange for the stress testing code to
+ only stress test the dict code and not the trace code as well. [Bug
+ 1342858]
+
+2005-11-05 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+ * tests/trace.test (trace-8.9): added test to detect leak, see [Bug
+ 1348775].
+
+2005-11-04 Pat Thoyts <patthoyts@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * win/tclWinPort.h: Applied [Patch 1267871] by Matt Newman for
+ * win/tclWinPipe.c: extended error code support on Windows.
+ * tests/exec.test: Tests for extended error codes.

+ * generic/tclExecute.c:
+ * generic/tclIOCmd.c:
+ * generic/tclLink.c:
+ * generic/tclTest.c:
+ * generic/tclVar.c: fix for [Bug 1334947]. The functions TclPtrSetVar,
+ Tcl_ObjSetVar2 and Tcl_SetVar2Ex now always consume the newValuePtr
+ argument - i.e., they will free a 0-refCount object if they failed to
+ set the variable. Fixed all callers in the core.
+
+2005-11-04 Kevin Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
+
+ * generic/tclGetDate.y: Added abbreviations for the Korean
+ * library/clock.tcl: timezone. [Patch 1298737]
+ * generic/tclDate.c: Regenerated.
+
+ * tools/findBadExternals.tcl: Added this script, which locates external
+ symbols that do not begin with 'Tcl' or 'tcl' and hence might be in
+ conflict with other link libraries. Thanks to George Peter Staplin for
+ the idea and the initial version of the script. [Bug 1263012]
+
+ * unix/Makefile.in: Trimmed a bunch of fat out of the tommath/
+ directory in 'make dist'. [RFE 1333318]
+
+ * unix/tcl.m4: Added code to enable [load] on LynxOS. Thanks to
+ heidibr@users.sf.net for the patch. [Bug 1163896]. Removed the last
+ vestiges of GNU dld from the Unix build [RFE 1071992].
+
+ * unix/tclLoadDld.c: Removed.
+ * unix/configure: Regenerated.
+
+2005-11-04 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclInt.h:
+ * generic/tclNamesp.c:
+ * generic/tclVar.c:
+ * tests/trace.test: fix for [Bugs 1338280/1337229]; changed to use the
+ same approach as the 8.4 patch in the ticket (i.e., removed the patch
+ committed on 2005-31-10).
+
+2005-11-03 Pat Thoyts <patthoyts@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * win/tclWin32Dll.c: Applied [Patch 1256872] to provide unicode

+ * win/tclWinInt.h: Patch by Anton Kovalenko
+
+2005-11-02 Pat Thoyts <patthoyts@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ Applied [Patch 1096916] to support building with MSVC 8.
+ * generic/regerror.c: Avoid use of reserved word.
+ * generic/tcl.h: Select the right Tcl_Stat structure
+ * generic/tclDate.c: Casts to handle 64 bit time_t case.
+ * tests/env.test: Include essential envvar on Win32
+ * win/nmakehlp.c: Handle new return codes.
+ * win/makefile.vc: Use the selected options.
+ * win/rules.vc: Check options are applicable
+ * win/tclWinPort.h: Disable deprecated function warnings
+ * win/tclWinSock.c: Provide default value to avoid warning.
+ * win/tclWinTime.c: Add casts to handle 64bit time_t type.
+
+2005-11-01 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclTrace.c (TclCheckExecutionTraces): Corrected mistaken
+ assumption that all command traces are set at the script level.
+ Report/fix from Jacques H. de Villiers. [Bug 1337941]
+
+ * tests/unixNotfy.test (1.1,2): Update error message whitespace to
+ match changes in code.
+
+ * tests/expr-old.test (expr-32.52): Use int(.) to restrict result of
+ left shift to the C long range.
+
+ * expr.test (expr-46.13): Added test that illustrates shortcoming of
+ [Patch 1340260].
+
+2005-10-31 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclNamesp.c: fix for [Bugs 1338280/1337229]. Thanks Don.

+
+2005-10-31 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>
+
+ * win/tclWinSerial.c (SerialSetOptionProc): Cleaned up option parsing
+ to produce more informative error messages and separate error and
+ non-error code paths better.
+ * tests/ioCmd.test (iocmd-8-19): Updated.
+
+2005-10-29 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclTrace.c (TraceVarProc): [Bug 1337229], partial fix. Ensure
+ that a second call with TCL_TRACE_DESTROYED does not lead to a second
+ call to Tcl_EventuallyFree(). It is still true that that second call
+ should not happen, so the bug is not completely fixed.
+ * tests/trace.test (test-18.3-4): added tests for [Bug 1337229] and
+ [Bug 1338280].
+
+2005-10-23 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclFileName.c: fix to memory leak in glob [Bug 1335006] Obj
+ leak detection and patch by Eric Melbardis.
+
+ * tests/fCmd.test:
+ * win/tclWinFile.c: where appropriate windows API is available, try to

+ 1325803]
+
+2005-10-22 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+ * tests/foreach.test (foreach-8.1): added test for [Bug 1189274]
+
+2005-10-22 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c (INST_INCR_*): fixed [Bug 1334570]. Obj leak
+ detection and patch by Eric Melbardis.
+
+2005-10-21 Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
+
+ * generic/tclStrToD.c (RefineApproximation): Plugged a memory leak
+ where two intermediate results were not freed on one return path. [Bug
+ 1334461]. Thanks to Eric Melbardis for the patch.
+
+2005-10-21 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ * doc/binary.n: Clarify that virtually all code that uses the 'h'
+ format in [binary scan] should be using the 'H' format instead. It is
+ nearly always a bug to use the other!
+
+2005-10-20 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclListObj.c (TclLsetFlat):
+ * tests/lset.test (lset-10.3): fixed handling of unshared lists with
+ shared sublists, [Bug 1333036] reported by neuronstorm.
+
+2005-10-19 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclIORChan.c (PassReceivedError,PassReceivedErrorInterp):
+ Fix crash caused by passing -1 as the length to TclNewStringObj(). Only
+ Tcl_NewStringObj (the function call, not the macro) handles that sort
+ of thing correctly. This makes ioCmd.test pass again.
+
+2005-10-19 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclClock.c: Removed some dead code.
+ * generic/tclCmdIL.c:

+ * generic/tclVar.c:
+
+2005-10-19 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>
+
+ * generic/tclIORChan.c: General cleanup, removing checks that are
+ unnecessary due to the general contracts of other functions in the
+ core, converting to using ANSI declarations, etc. Note that nearly the
+ whole file has changed, but it is often just cosmetic.
+
+2005-10-19 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c (INST_DICT_APPEND, INST_DICT_LAPPEND): fixed
+ faulty peephole optimisation that can cause crashes, [Bug 1331475]
+ reported by Aric Bills.
+
+2005-10-18 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c: Added optimization for I32L64 systems to avoid
+ using bignums to perform int multiplies. The improvement shows up most
+ dramatically in tclbench's matrix.bench.
+
+2005-10-15 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c: Restored some optimizations of the
+ INST_INCR_SCALAR1_IMM opcode.
+
+2005-10-14 Zoran Vasiljevic <vasiljevic@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_ClearChannelHandlers): removed change dated
+ 2005-10-04 (see below). Look into [Bug 1323992] for detailed
+ discussion.
+
+ * generic/tcl.h: Fixed bad definition of CRTEXPORT which should have
+ been CRTIMPORT rather. This broke compilation of generic/tclMain.c and
+ was probably introduced by mistake while applying the fix for [Bug
+ 1256937] below.
+
+2005-10-14 Kevin Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c (TclIncrObj, TclExecuteByteCode): Tidied up a
+ couple of infelicitous do {...} while(0) constructs.
+
+2005-10-14 Pat Thoyts <patthoyts@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tcl.h: Fix for [Bug 1256937] - correctly decorate
+ * generic/tclMain.c: imported functions from msvcrt in static builds.
+
+2005-10-13 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
+
+ * tests/format.test: "Forward"-port of test updates relating to [Bug
+ 1284178]. The bug itself was fixed by TIP#237.
+
+2005-10-13 Zoran Vasiljevic <vasiljevic@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_ClearChannelHandlers): temporary ifdef
+ TCL_THREADS changes done to de-activate pending event processing when
+ channel is being closed/cutted.
+
+2005-10-13 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c: Removed obsolete use of NO_ERRNO_H.

+ parsing "Na". [Bug 1325833]
+
+2005-10-12 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c (GetNumberFromObj): Restored some lost
+ optimizations for empty string values. We avoid cost of a call to
+ TclParseNumber just to tell us an empty string isn't a number.
+
+2005-10-12 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclPathObj.c (SetFsPathFromAny): TclGetString macro must not
+ be combined with post-increment arguments. [Bug 1325099]
+
+2005-10-12 Kevin Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c (Tcl_ExecuteByteCode, TclIncrObj): Several

+
+2005-10-10 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclCompCmds.c: New convenience macro CompileTokens().
+
+2005-10-10 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c: Corrections to the NO_WIDE_TYPE build. Also
+ added missing "break" to a switch that broke wide XOR operations.
+
+2005-10-10 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
+
+ * generic/tclInterp.c (DeleteScriptLimitCallback)
+ (SetScriptLimitCallback): Improve the interlocking between the script
+ limit callback record and the hash table of current such records, to
+ prevent crashes in callbacks that create callbacks.
+ (Tcl_LimitSetTime): Reset the correct flag. Problem reported by
+ Nicolas Castagne <castagne@imag.fr> on comp.lang.tcl
+
+2005-10-10 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>

+
+2005-10-07 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ [kennykb-numerics-branch]
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c: Macro GetNumberFromObj() is version of
+ TclGetNumberFromObj() that saves a function call for common uses.
+
+ * generic/tclInt.h: Made #undef NO_WIDE_TYPE the default on 32-bit
+ systems. Being able to use 64-bit values without leaping to mp_int
+ should help with performance.
+
+ * generic/tclObj.c: Bug fixes in the #undef NO_WIDE_TYPE
+ * generic/tclExecute.c: configuration.
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c: Improved performance of comparison opcodes and

+
+2005-10-05 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ [kennykb-numerics-branch]
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c: Improved performance of INST_MULT, INST_DIV,

+ from loop" in TclIncrObj() and removed some dead code.
+
+2005-10-05 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>

+ Welton's patch for it, and added a note about wideSeekProc.
+
+ * generic/tclIORChan.c (RcClose): Removed unreachable panic/return
+ statements. This fixes the remainder of [Bug 1286256].
+
+2005-10-05 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
+
+ * tests/env.test (env-6.1):
+ * win/tclWinPort.h: define USE_PUTENV_FOR_UNSET 1
+ * generic/tclEnv.c (TclSetEnv, TclUnsetEnv): add USE_PUTENV_FOR_UNSET
+ to existing USE_PUTENV define to account for various systems that have
+ putenv(), but can't unset env vars with it. Note difference between
+ Windows and Linux for actually unsetting the env var (use of '=').
+ Correct the resizing of the environ array. We assume that we are in

+
+2005-10-04 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ [kennykb-numerics-branch]
+ * generic/tclExecute.c: Updated TclIncrObj() to more efficiently add

+
+2005-10-04 Zoran Vasiljevic <vasiljevic@users.sourceforge.net>

+ event queue from triggering on the current channel.
+
+ * generic/tclTimer.c (Tcl_DeleteTimerHandler): bail out early if passed
+ NULL argument.
+
+2005-10-03 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ [kennykb-numerics-branch]
+
+ * generic/tclBasic.c: Re-implemented ExprRoundFunc and
+ ExprEntierFunc to use TclGetNumberFromObj.
+
+ * generic/tclInt.h: Added new routine TclGetNumberFromObj to

+ poor test coverage in those areas.
+ * generic/tclParseExpr.c: Reworked parsing of numbers to call
+ TclParseNumber rather than trying to do things locally.
+ * generic/tclStrToD.c: Corrected a comment. Changed so that *endPtrPtr
+ does not include any trailing whitespace.

+2005-08-17 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ [kennykb-numerics-branch]
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c: New routine TclIncrObj to centralize the

+ [kennykb-numerics-branch]
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c: Made bit shifting opcodes and INST_MOD
+ bignum-aware.

+
+ [kennykb-numerics-branch]

+2005-08-13 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ [kennykb-numerics-branch]
+
+ * generic/tclObj.c: Extended Bignum auto-narrowing to auto-narrow
+ to tclWideIntType when appropriate; this helps keep things working as
+ the bytecode execution code is migrated to supporting bignums.
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c: Major overhaul of IllegalExprOperandType.
+ Changed several TclNewFooObj() calls to more logically appropriate
+ ones. Added several TODO comments marking opportunies for future work.
+ Made more use of the eePtr->constants. Made INST_UMINUS bignum aware.

+
+ * generic/tclClock.c (MktimeObjCmd):
+ * library/clock.tcl (GetSystemTimeZone, LoadZoneinfoFile)
+ (ReadZoneinfoFile):
+ * tests/clock.test (clock-50.1):
+ Added functionality to read /etc/localtime if it exists, so that Tcl's

+ ::tcl::clock::Mktime to check for failure, and added a test case that
+ mimics failure but is really success.
+
+2005-08-11 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ [kennykb-numerics-branch]
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c: Rewrite of INST_LAND/INST_LOR to take advantage
+ of loss of "pure double" issues. Merged INST_UPLUS with
+ INST_TRY_CVT_TO_NUMERIC and updated to use improved rules for impure
+ "double"s as well.
+
+ * generic/tclStrToD.c: Restored conditional generation of
+ tclWideIntType values by TclParseNumber so that Tcl's not completely
+ broken while bignum calculation support is incomplete. The NO_WIDE_TYPE
+ macro can be used to disable this.
+
+ * generic/tclBasic.c (ExprAbsFunc): First pass making [expr abs(.)]

+2005-08-11 Kevin Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
+
+ * generic/tclEvent.c: Eliminated the USE_THREAD_STORAGE option

+ * generic/tclThreadStorage.c: Eliminated the code for thread specific

+ * win/makefile.vc:
+
+ * generic/tommath.h: make gentommath_h
+
+ * generic/tclObj.c: Substantial rewrite to make all number parsing

+ portions of the code.
+
+ * generic/tclInt.h: Added NO_WIDE_TYPE #ifdefs
+
+2005-08-10 Kevin Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>
+
+ * generic/tclEvent.c (Tcl_Finalize): Pushed Tcl_FinalizeLoad and
+ Tcl_ResetFilesystem down after Tcl_FinalizeThreadAlloc because we can't
+ unload DLL's until after their TSD keys are finalized. (Note that we'll
+ still see aborts if an unloaded DLL has TSD - that still needs to be
+ fixed.
+
+ * tests/compExpr-old.test (compExpr-3.8): Made tests conditional on

+ * tests/listObj.test: empty => emptyTest; winOnly => win
+ * tests/obj.test: intsAre64bit => longIs64bit
+ Also updated some "nonPortable" tests to use constraints that mark

+
+2005-05-19 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+

+
+2005-05-19 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * macosx/tclMacOSXNotify.c (Tcl_InitNotifier): fixed crashing CFRelease

+
+2005-05-18 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_ExprBoolean): Rewrite as wrapper around

+
+ * generic/tclCmdMZ.c ([string is boolean/true/false]): Rewrite dropping
+ string-based Tcl_GetBoolean call, so that internal reps are kept for
+ subsequent quick boolean operations.
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c: Dropped most special handling of the "boolean"
+ Tcl_ObjType, since that type should now be rarely encountered.
+
+ * doc/BoolObj.3: Rewrite of documentation dropping many details
+ about the internals of Tcl_Objs. Shorter documentation focuses on the
+ function and use of the routines.
+
+ * generic/tclInt.h: Revision to the "boolean" Tcl_ObjType, so that
+ * generic/tclObj.c: only string values like "yes" and "false" are
+ * tests/obj.test: kept as the "boolean" Tcl_ObjType. The string
+ values "0" and "1" are kept as "int" Tcl_ObjType, which also produce
+ quick calls to Tcl_GetBooleanFromObj(). Since this internal change
+ means a Tcl_ConvertToType to a "boolean" Tcl_ObjType might not produce
+ a Tcl_Obj of type "boolean", the registration of the "boolean" type is
+ also removed.
+ ***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
+ For callers of Tcl_GetObjType on the type name "boolean".
+
+2005-05-17 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/tclObj.c (TclInitObjSubsystem): Removed the
+ * tests/listObj.test: registration of the Tcl_ObjType's "list",
+ * tests/obj.test: "procbody", "index", "ensembleCommand",
+ "localVarName", and "levelReference". The only reason to register a
+ Tcl_ObjType is to have it returned by Tcl_GetObjType, and the only
+ reason for that is to retrieve a (Tcl_ObjType *) to pass to
+ Tcl_ConvertToType(). None of the types above can support a
+ Tcl_ConvertToType() call; they panic. Better not to offer something
+ than to lead users into a panic.
+ ***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
+ For callers of Tcl_GetObjType on the type names listed above.

+
+ * macosx/tclMacOSXBundle.c:
+ * unix/tclUnixInit.c:
+ * unix/tcl.m4 (Darwin): made use of CoreFoundation API configurable and
+ added test of CoreFoundation availablility to allow building on ppc64,
+ replaced HAVE_CFBUNDLE by HAVE_COREFOUNDATION; test for availability of
+ Tiger or later OSSpinLockLock API.
+
+ * unix/tclUnixNotfy.c:
+ * unix/Makefile.in:
+ * macosx/tclMacOSXNotify.c (new file): when CoreFoundation is
+ available, use new CFRunLoop based notifier: allows easy integration
+ with other event loops on Mac OS X, in particular the TkAqua Carbon
+ event loop is now integrated via a standard tcl event source (instead
+ of TkAqua upon loading having to finalize the exsting notifier and
+ replace it with its custom version). [Patch 1202052]
+
+ * tests/unixNotfy.test: don't run unthreaded tests on Darwin since
+ notifier may be using threads even in unthreaded core.
+
+ * unix/tclUnixPort.h:
+ * unix/tcl.m4 (Darwin): test for thread-unsafe realpath during

+ * macosx/Makefile: enable configure caching.
+
+ * unix/configure.in: wrap tclConfig.h header in #ifndef _TCLCONFIG so

+

+ The 2005-04-21 changes to Tcl_GetBooleanFromObj were done to bring it

+ docs that were incorrect.
+
+ * doc/BoolObj.3: Corrections to the documentation of

+
+ * doc/GetInt.3: Convert argument "string" to "str" to agree with code.
+ Also clarified a few details on int and double formats.
+ * generic/tclGet.c: Radical code simplification. Converted
+ Tcl_GetFoo() routines into wrappers around Tcl_GetFooFromObj(). Reduces
+ code duplication, and the resulting potential for inconsistency.
+
+ * generic/tclObj.c: Several changes:
+
+ - Re-ordered error detection code so all values with trailing garbage
+ receive a "not an integer" message instead of an "integer too large"
+ message.
+ - Removed inactive code meant to deal with strtoul* routines that fail
+ to parse leading signs. All of them do, and if any are detected that
+ do not, the correct fix is replacement with compat/strtoul*.c, not a
+ lot of special care by the callers.
+ - Tcl_GetDoubleFromObj now avoids shimmering away a "wideInt" intrep.
+ - Fixed Tcl_GetBooleanFromObj to agree with its documentation and with
+ Tcl_GetBoolean, accepting only "0" and "1" and not other numeric
+ strings. [Bug 1187123]
+ - Added new private routine TclGetTruthValueFromObj to perform the more
+ permissive conversion of numeric values to boolean that is needed by
+ the [expr] machinery.
+
+ * generic/tclInt.h (TclGetTruthValueFromObj): New routine.
+ * generic/tclExecute.c: Updated callers to call new routine.
+ * generic/tclBasic.c: Updated callers to call new routine.
+ * generic/tclCompCmds.c: Updated callers to call new routine.
+ * generic/tclDictObj.c: Updated callers to call new routine.
+ * tests/obj.test: Corrected bad tests that actually expected
+ values like "47" and "0xac" to be accepted as booleans.
+
+ * generic/tclLiteral.c: Disabled the code that forces some literals
+ into the "int" Tcl_ObjType during registration. We can re-enable it if
+ this change causes trouble, but it seems more sensible to let Tcl's
+ "on-demand" shimmering rule, and not try to pre-guess things.
