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.
