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/tclTest.c (TestHashSystemHashCmd): Removed 'const' - modifier from hash type structure; it should be const and the hash - code assumes it behaves like const, but that's not how the API is - defined. Like this, we are following in the same footsteps as - Tcl_RegisterObjType() which has the same conditions on its - argument. Stops VC++5.2 warning. [Bug 842511] - -2003-11-14 Donal K.

Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk> - - * generic/tclCmdIL.c (Tcl_LrepeatObjCmd): Check for sensible list - lengths and allow for soft failure of the memory subsystem in the - [lconcat] command [Bug 829027]. Uses direct list creation to - avoid extra copies when working near the limit of available - memory. Also reorganized to encourage optimizing compilers to - optimize heavily. - * generic/tclListObj.c (TclNewListObjDirect): New list constructor - that does not copy the array of objects.

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. This avoids - an invalid memory ref when compiled with -DDEPRECATED. - * win/tclWinChan.c (FileCloseProc, TclpCutFileChannel, - TclpSpliceFileChannel): Implement thread load data - cut and splice for file channels. This avoids - an invalid memory ref that was showing up in the - thread extension. - -2003-01-25 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net> - - * win/tclWin32Dll.c (TclpCheckStackSpace, squelch_warnings): - * win/tclWinChan.c (Tcl_MakeFileChannel, squelch_warnings): - * win/tclWinFCmd.c (DoRenameFile, DoCopyFile, squelch_warnings): - Re-implement inline ASM SEH handlers for gcc. - The esp and ebp registers are now saved on the - stack instead of in global variables so that - the code is thread safe. Add additional checks - when TCL_MEM_DEBUG is defined to be sure the - values were recovered from the stack properly. - Remove squelch_warnings functions and add - a dummy call in the handler methods to squelch - compiler warnings. - -2003-01-25 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net> - - * win/configure: - * win/configure.in: Define HAVE_ALLOCA_GCC_INLINE - when we detect that no alloca function is found - in malloc.h and we are compiling with GCC. - Remove HAVE_NO_ALLOC_DECL define. - * win/tclWin32Dll.c (TclpCheckStackSpace): - Don't define alloca as a cdecl function. - Doing this caused a tricky runtime bug because - the _alloca function expects the size argument - to be passed in a register and not on the stack. - To fix this problem, we use inline ASM when - compiling with gcc to invoke _alloca with the - size argument loaded into a register. - -2003-01-24 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> - - * win/tclWinDde.c (Dde_Init): clarified use of tsdPtr. - (DdeServerProc): better refcount handling of returnPackagePtr. - - * generic/tclEvent.c (Tcl_Finalize): revert finalize change on - 2002-12-04 to correct the issue with extensions that have TSD - needing to finalize that before they are unloaded. This issue - needs further clarification. - - * tests/unixFCmd.test: only do groups check on unix - -2003-01-24 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net> - - * generic/tclStringObj.c: proper fixes for Tcl_SetObjLength and - Tcl_AttemptSetObjectLength dealing with string objects with - both pure-unicode and normal internal representations. - Previous fix didn't handle all cases correctly. - * generic/tclIO.c: Add 'Tcl_GetString()' to ensure the object has - a valid 'objPtr->bytes' field before manipulating it directly. - - This fixes [Bug 635200] and [Bug 671138], but may reduce performance - of Unicode string handling in some cases. A further patch will - be applied to address this, once the code is known to be correct. - -2003-01-24 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net> - - * win/configure: Regen. - * win/configure.in: Add test to see if alloca - is undefined in malloc.h. - * win/tclWin32Dll.c (TclpCheckStackSpace): Rework - the SEH exception handler logic to avoid using - the stack since alloca will modify the stack. - This was causing a nasty bug that would set the - exception handler to 0 because it tried to pop - the previous exception handler off the top of - the stack. - -2003-01-23 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk> - - * doc/lset.n: Fixed fault in return values from lset in - documentation examples [SF Bug #658463] and tidied up a bit at the - same time. - -2003-01-21 Joe English <jenglish@users.sourceforge.net> - * doc/namespace.n (namespace inscope): Clarified documentation - [SF Patch #670110] - -2003-01-21 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net> - - * win/configure: Regen. - * win/tcl.m4 (SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS): Set SHLIB_SUFFIX - so that TCL_SHLIB_SUFFIX will be set to a useful - value in the generated tclConfig.sh. - Set SHLIB_LD_LIBS to "" or '${LIBS}' based on - the --enable-shared flag. This matches the - UNIX implementation. - -2003-01-18 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> - - * generic/tclCkalloc.c: change %ud to %u as appropriate. - -2003-01-17 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net> - - * win/tclWinDde.c (DdeServerProc): Deallocate - the Tcl_Obj returned by ExecuteRemoteObject - if it was not saved in a connection object. - -2003-01-17 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net> - - * generic/tcl.h: Revert earlier change that - defined TCL_WIDE_INT_TYPE as long long and - TCL_LL_MODIFIER as L when compiling with - mingw. This change ended up causing some - test case failures when compiling with mingw. - * generic/tclObj.c (UpdateStringOfWideInt): - Describe the warning generated by mingw and - why it needs to be ignored so that someone - is not tempted to "fix" this problem again - in the future. - -2003-01-16 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net> - - * generic/tclStringObj.c: Tcl_SetObjLength fix for when - the object has a unicode string rep.

In particular fixed [Bug 655645], [Bug 615043], - [Bug 571385] - - fixed some subtle cleanup problems with tracing. This - required replacing Tcl_Preserve/Tcl_Release with a more - robust refCount approach. Solves at least one known crash - caused by memory corruption. - - fixed some confusion in the code between new style traces - (Tcl 8.4) and the very limited 'Tcl_CreateTrace' which existed - before. - - made behaviour consistent with documentation (several - tests even contradicted the documentation before). - - fixed some minor error message details - - added a number of new tests - -2003-01-16 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> - - * win/tclWinSerial.c (SerialOutputProc): add casts for - bytesWritten to allow strict compilation (no warnings). - - * tests/winDde.test: - * win/tclWinDde.c (Tcl_DdeObjCmd): Prevent crash when empty - service name is passed to 'dde eval' and goto errorNoResult in - request and poke error cases to free up any allocated data. - -2003-01-16 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net> - - * win/tclWin32Dll.c (squelch_warnings): Squelch - compiler warnings from SEH ASM code. - * win/tclWinChan.c (squelch_warnings): Squelch - compiler warnings from SEH ASM code. - * win/tclWinDde.c: Add casts to avoid compiler - warnings.

Whoops.. - - Renamed the 'linkexten' option to be 'staticpkg'. Added 'thrdalloc' - to allow the switching _on_ of the thread allocator. Under testing, - I found it not to be benificial under windows for the purpose of the - application I was using it for. It was more important for this app - that resources for tcl threads be returned to the system rather than - saved/moved to the global recycler. Be extra clean or extra fast - for the default threaded build? Let's move to clean and allow it to - be switched on for users who find it benificial for their use of - threads. - ****************************************************************** + *** CHANGELOG ENTRIES FOR 2003 IN "ChangeLog.2003" *** *** CHANGELOG ENTRIES FOR 2002 IN "ChangeLog.2002" *** *** CHANGELOG ENTRIES FOR 2001 IN "ChangeLog.2001" *** *** CHANGELOG ENTRIES FOR 2000 IN "ChangeLog.2000" *** |
