This error + causes an interesting situation with the pre-collected single-linked + list of states to be splitted: many items were added to the list, but + only several of them are accessible from the list beginning, + since the "tmp" member of struct state (which is used here to + hold a pointer to the next list item) gets overwritten, which + results in a "looped" chain. As a result, not all of states are + splitted, and one state is splitted two times, causing incorrect + "no-progress" flag values. + +2003-11-16 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk> + + * generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): Make sure that + Tcl_AsyncInvoke is called regularly when processing bytecodes. + * generic/tclTest.c (AsyncThreadProc, TestasyncCmd): Extended + testing harness to send an asynchronous marking without relying on + UNIX signals. + * tests/async.test (async-4.*): Tests to check that async events + are handled by the bytecode core.

Also reorganized to encourage optimizing compilers to + optimize heavily. + * generic/tclListObj.c (TclNewListObjDirect): New list constructor + that does not copy the array of objects.

Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk> + + * generic/tclCmdIL.c (SortInfo,etc): Reorganized so that SortInfo + carries an array of integer indices instead of a Tcl list.

Clean fix for [Bug 760872]. + + * generic/tclInt.h: Declarations for new internal routines. + + * generic/tclCmdMZ.c: Updated callers to use the new routines. + * generic/tclCompExpr.c: + * generic/tclCompile.c: + * generic/tclExecute.c: + * generic/tclIOUtil.c: + * generic/tclNamesp.c: + * generic/tclObj.c: + * generic/tclParseExpr.c: + * generic/tclProc.c: + * generic/tclStringObj.c: + * mac/tclMacResource.c: + + * library/init.tcl: Updated ::errorInfo cleanup in [unknown] to + reflect slight modifications to Tcl_LogCommandInfo().

This meant boundaries between different filesystems + were not seamless (e.g. 'glob */*' across a filesystem boundary + was wrong). Added new entry to Tcl_GlobTypeData in a totally + backwards compatible way. To allow listing of mounts, registered + filesystems must support the 'TCL_GLOB_TYPE_MOUNT' flag. If this + is not supported (e.g. in tclvfs 1.2) then mounts will simply not + be listed for that filesystem. + + Fixed [Bug 749876] 'file writable/readable/etc' (NativeAccess) + using correct permission checking code for Windows NT/2000/XP + where more complex user-based security/access priveleges are + available, particularly on shared volumes. The performance + impact of this extra checking will need further investigation. + Note: Win 95,98,ME have no support for this. + + Also made better use of normalized rather than translated paths + in the platform specific code. + +2003-10-12 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> + + * unix/tclUnixTest.c (TestalarmCmd): don't bother checking return + value of alarm.

This fixes a really + mysterious error that would show up when + exec'ing a 16 bit application under Win95 + or Win98 when Tcl was compiled with symbols. + The error seemed to indicate that the executable + could not be found, but it was actually the + Tcl pipe dll that could not be found. + +2003-01-26 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net> + + * win/README: Update msys+mingw URL to release 6. + This version bundles gcc 3. + +2003-01-26 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net> + + * win/configure: Regen. + * win/configure.in: Add test that checks to + see if the compiler can cast to a union type. + * win/tclWinTime.c: Squelch compiler warning + about union initializer by casting to union + type when compiling with gcc. + +2003-01-25 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net> + + * generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_CutChannel, Tcl_SpliceChannel): + Invoke TclpCutFileChannel and TclpSpliceFileChannel. + * generic/tclInt.h: Declare TclpCutFileChannel + and TclpSpliceFileChannel. + * unix/tclUnixChan.c (FileCloseProc, TclpOpenFileChannel, + Tcl_MakeFileChannel, TclpCutFileChannel, + TclpSpliceFileChannel): Implement thread load data + cut and splice for file channels.
