TerminateThread is evil. No attempt has - been made to resolve [Bug 593810] which may need a new - channel driver version for adding a registering function - within the transfered thread to init the handler thread. - IOW, initialization of the TSD structure is getting bypassed - through the thread extension's [thread::transfer] command. - -2002-11-26 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com> - - * win/tclWinConsole.c: - * win/tclWinPipe.c: - * win/tclWinSerial.c: - * win/tclWinSock.c: - * win/tclWinThrd.c: - * win/tclWinTime.c: General cleanup of all worker threads used - by the channel drivers.

Only when the worker - thread is blocked on an I/O call is the thread terminated. - Essentially, this makes all other channel worker threads behave - like the PipeReaderThread() function for it's cleaner exit - behavior.

Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk> - - +----------------------+ - | TIP #72 IMPLEMENTED. | - +----------------------+ - - There are a lot of changes from this TIP, so please see - http://purl.org/tcl/tip/72.html for discussion of - backward-compatability issues, but the main ones modifications are - in: - - * generic/tcl.h: New types. - * generic/tcl.decls: New public functions. - * generic/tclExecute.c: 64-bit aware bytecode engine. - * generic/tclBinary.c: 64-bit handling in [binary] command. - * generic/tclScan.c: 64-bit handling in [scan] command. - * generic/tclCmdAH.c: 64-bit handling in [file] and [format] - commands. - * generic/tclBasic.c: New "wordSize" entry in ::tcl_platform. - * generic/tclFCmd.c: Large-file support (with many consequences.) - * generic/tclIO.c: Large-file support (with many consequences.) - * compat/strtoll.c, compat/strtoull.c: New support functions. - * unix/tcl.m4, unix/configure: 64-bit support and greatly enhanced - cacheing. - - Most other changes, including all those in doc/* and test/* as - well as the majority in the platform directories, follow on from - these. - - Also coming out of the woodwork: - * generic/tclIndex.c: Better support for Cray PVP. - * win/tclWinMtherr.c: Better Borland support. - - Note that, in a number of places through the Unix part of the - platform support, there are Tcl_Platform* references. These are - expanded into the correct way to call that particular underlying - function, i.e. with or without a '64' suffix, and should be used - by people working on the core in preference to the API functions - they overlay so that the code remains portable depending on the - presence or absence of 64-bit support on the underlying platform. - - ***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***: Extracted from the TIP - - SUMMARY OF INCOMPATIBILITIES AND FIXES - ====================================== - - The behaviour of expressions containing constants that appear - positive but which have a negative internal representation will - change, as these will now usually be interpreted as wide - integers. This is always fixable by replacing the constant with - int(constant). - - Extensions creating new channel types will need to be altered as - different types are now in use in those areas. The change to the - declaration of Tcl_FSStat and Tcl_FSLstat (which are the new - preferred API in any case) are less serious as no non-alpha - releases have been made yet with those API functions. - - Scripts that are lax about the use of the l modifier in format and - scan will probably need to be rewritten. This should be very - uncommon though as previously it had absolutely no effect. - - Extensions that create new math functions that take more than one - argument will need to be recompiled (the size of Tcl_Value - changes), and functions that accept arguments of any type - (TCL_EITHER) will need to be rewritten to handle wide integer - values. (I do not expect this to affect many extensions at all.) - -2002-02-14 Andreas Kupries <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net> - - * generic/tclIOCmd.c (Tcl_GetsObjCmd): Trivial fix for bug - #517503, a memory leak reported by Miguel Sofer - <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>.

Dynamic loading isn't working, yet. Requires watt32 - for the TCP/IP stack. No autoconf, yet. Barely tested, but - makes a working exe that runs Tcl in protected-mode, flat memory. - [exec] and pipes will need the most work as multi-tasking on DOS - has to be carefully. - -2002-02-10 Kevin Kenny <kennykb@acm.org> - - * doc/CrtObjCmd.3: - * doc/CrtTrace.3: - * generic/tcl.decls: - * generic/tcl.h: - * generic/tclBasic.c: - * generic/tclInt.h: - * generic/tclTest.c: - * tests/basic.test: Added Tcl_CreateObjTrace, - Tcl_GetCommandInfoFromToken and Tcl_SetCommandInfoFromToken. - (TIPs #32 and #79.) - - * generic/tclDecls.h: - * generic/tclStubInit.c: Regenerated Stubs tables. - -2002-02-08 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> - - * unix/configure: - * unix/tcl.m4: added -pthread for FreeBSD to EXTRA_CFLAGS and - LDFLAGS.

These are + expanded into the correct way to call that particular underlying + function, i.e. with or without a '64' suffix, and should be used + by people working on the core in preference to the API functions + they overlay so that the code remains portable depending on the + presence or absence of 64-bit support on the underlying platform. + + ***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***: Extracted from the TIP + + SUMMARY OF INCOMPATIBILITIES AND FIXES + ====================================== + + The behaviour of expressions containing constants that appear + positive but which have a negative internal representation will + change, as these will now usually be interpreted as wide + integers. This is always fixable by replacing the constant with + int(constant). + + Extensions creating new channel types will need to be altered as + different types are now in use in those areas. The change to the + declaration of Tcl_FSStat and Tcl_FSLstat (which are the new + preferred API in any case) are less serious as no non-alpha + releases have been made yet with those API functions. + + Scripts that are lax about the use of the l modifier in format and + scan will probably need to be rewritten. This should be very + uncommon though as previously it had absolutely no effect. + + Extensions that create new math functions that take more than one + argument will need to be recompiled (the size of Tcl_Value + changes), and functions that accept arguments of any type + (TCL_EITHER) will need to be rewritten to handle wide integer + values.
