+2013-09-18 Donal Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ Bump TclOO version to 1.0.1 for release.
+
+2013-09-17 Donal Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclBinary.c (BinaryEncodeUu, BinaryDecodeUu): [Bug 2152292]:
+ Corrected implementation of the core of uuencode handling so that the
+ line length processing is correctly applied.
+ ***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
+ Existing code that was using the old versions and working around the
+ limitations will now need to do far less. The -maxlen option now has
+ strict limits on the range of supported lengths; this is a limitation
+ of the format itself.
+
+2013-09-09 Donal Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclOOMethod.c (CloneProcedureMethod): [Bug 3609693]: Strip
+ the internal representation of method bodies during cloning in order
+ to ensure that any bound references to instance variables are removed.
+
+2013-09-01 Donal Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclBinary.c (BinaryDecodeHex): [Bug b98fa55285]: Ensure that

+ last decoded byte.
+
+2013-08-03 Donal Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ * library/auto.tcl: [Patch 3611643]: Allow TclOO classes to be found

+
+2013-08-02 Donal Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclOODefineCmds.c (ClassSuperSet): Bug [9d61624b3d]: Stop
+ crashes when emptying the superclass slot, even when doing elaborate
+ things with metaclasses.
+
+2013-08-01 Harald Oehlmann <oehhar@users.sf.net>
+
+ * tclUnixNotify.c (Tcl_InitNotifier): Bug [a0bc856dcd]: Start notifier
+ thread again if we were forked, to solve Rivet bug 55153.
+
+2013-07-05 Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@acm.org>

+2013-07-03 Jan Nijtmans <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+ * unix/tclXtNotify.c: Bug [817249]: bring tclXtNotify.c up to date with
+ Tcl_SetNotifier() change.
+
+2013-07-02 Jan Nijtmans <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+ * unix/tcl.m4: Bug [32afa6e256]: dirent64 check is incorrect in tcl.m4
+ * unix/configure: (thanks to Brian Griffin)
+
+2013-06-27 Jan Nijtmans <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclConfig.c: Bug [9b2e636361]: Tcl_CreateInterp() needs
+ * generic/tclMain.c: initialized encodings.
+
+2013-06-18 Jan Nijtmans <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclEvent.c: Bug [3611974]: InitSubsystems multiple thread
+ issue.
+
+2013-06-17 Jan Nijtmans <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/regc_locale.c: Bug [a876646efe]: re_expr character class
+ [:cntrl:] should contain \u0000 - \u001f
+
+2013-06-09 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclCompCmdsSZ.c (TclCompileTryCmd): [Bug 779d38b996]:
+ Rewrote the [try] compiler to generate better code in some cases and
+ to behave correctly in others; when an error happens during the
+ processing of an exception-trap clause or a finally clause, the
+ *original* return options are now captured in a -during option, even
+ when fully compiled.
+
+2013-06-05 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c (INST_EXPAND_DROP): [Bugs 2835313, 3614226]:
+ New opcode to allow resetting the stack to get rid of an expansion,
+ restoring the stack to a known state in the process.
+ * generic/tclCompile.c, generic/tclCompCmds.c: Adjusted the compilers
+ for [break] and [continue] to get stack cleanup right in the majority
+ of cases.
+ * tests/for.test (for-7.*): Set of tests for these evil cases.
+
+2013-06-04 Jan Nijtmans <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+ * unix/tcl.m4: Eliminate NO_VIZ macro as current zlib uses HAVE_HIDDEN
+ instead. One more last-moment fix for FreeBSD by Pietro Cerutti
+
+2013-06-03 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c: fix for perf bug detected by Kieran
+ (https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!topic/comp.lang.tcl/vfpI3bc-DkQ),
+ diagnosed by dgp to be a close relative of [Bug 781585], which was
+ fixed by commit [f46fb50cb3]. This bug was introduced by myself in
+ commit [cbfe055d8c].
+
+2013-06-03 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileBreakCmd, TclCompileContinueCmd):
+ Added code to allow [break] and [continue] to be issued as a jump (in
+ the most common cases) rather than using the more expensive exception
+ processing path in the bytecode engine. [Bug 3614226]: Partial fix for
+ the issues relating to cleaning up the stack when dealing with [break]
+ and [continue].
+
+2013-05-27 Harald Oehlmann <oehhar@users.sf.net>
+
+ * library/msgcat/msgcat.tcl: [Bug 3036566]: Also get locale from
+ registry key HCU\Control Panel\Desktop : PreferredUILanguages to honor
+ installed language packs on Vista+.
+ Bumped msgcat version to 1.5.2
+
+2013-05-22 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
+
+ * tclCompile.c: Removed duplicate const qualifier causing the HP
+ native cc to error out.
+
+2013-05-22 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclUtf.c (TclUtfCasecmp): [Bug 3613609]: Replace problematic
+ uses of strcasecmp with a proper UTF-8-aware version. Affects both
+ [lsearch -nocase] and [lsort -nocase].
+
+2013-05-22 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ * doc/file.n: [Bug 3613671]: Added note to portability section on the
+ fact that [file owned] does not produce useful results on Windows.
+
+2013-05-20 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ * unix/tclUnixFCmd.c (DefaultTempDir): [Bug 3613567]: Corrected logic
+ for checking return code of access() system call, which was inverted.
+
+2013-05-19 Jan Nijtmans <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+ * unix/tcl.m4: Fix for FreeBSD, and remove support for older
+ * unix/configure: FreeBSD versions. Patch by Pietro Cerutti.
+
+2013-05-18 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclCompCmdsGR.c: Split tclCompCmds.c again to keep size of
+ code down.
+
+2013-05-16 Jan Nijtmans <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclBasic.c: Add panic in order to detect incompatible
+ mingw32 sys/stat.h and sys/time.h headers.
+
+2013-05-13 Jan Nijtmans <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+ * compat/zlib/*: Upgrade to zlib 1.2.8
+
+2013-05-10 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ Optimizations and general bytecode generation improvements.
+ * generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileAppendCmd, TclCompileLappendCmd):
+ (TclCompileReturnCmd): Make these generate bytecode in more cases.
+ (TclCompileListCmd): Make this able to push a literal when it can.
+ * generic/tclCompile.c (TclSetByteCodeFromAny, PeepholeOptimize):
+ Added checks to see if we can apply some simple cross-command-boundary
+ optimizations, and defined a small number of such optimizations.
+ (TclCompileScript): Added the special ability to compile the list
+ command with expansion ([list {*}blah]) into bytecode that does not
+ call an external command.
+
+2013-05-06 Jan Nijtmans <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclStubInit.c: Add support for Cygwin64, which has a 64-bit
+ * generic/tclDecls.h: "long" type. Binary compatibility with win64
+ requires that all stub entries use 32-bit long's, therefore the need
+ for various wrapper functions/macros. For Tcl 9 a better solution is
+ needed, but that cannot be done without introducing binary
+ incompatibility.
+
+2013-04-30 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
+
+ * library/platform/platform.tcl (::platform::LibcVersion):
+ * library/platform/pkgIndex.tcl: Followup to the 2013-01-30 change.
+ The RE become too restrictive again. SuSe added a timestamp after the
+ version. Loosened up a bit. Bumped package to version 1.0.12.
+
+2013-04-29 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileArraySetCmd): Generate better code
+ when the list of things to set is a literal.
+
+2013-04-25 Jan Nijtmans <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclDecls.h: Implement Tcl_NewBooleanObj, Tcl_DbNewBooleanObj
+ and Tcl_SetBooleanObj as macros using Tcl_NewIntObj, Tcl_DbNewLongObj
+ and Tcl_SetIntObj. Starting with Tcl 8.5, this is exactly the same, it
+ only eliminates code duplication.
+ * generic/tclInt.h: Eliminate use of NO_WIDE_TYPE everywhere: It's
+ exactly the same as TCL_WIDE_INT_IS_LONG
+
+2013-04-19 Jan Nijtmans <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclDecls.h: Implement many Tcl_*Var* functions and
+ Tcl_GetIndexFromObj as (faster/stack-saving) macros around resp their
+ Tcl_*Var*2 equivalent and Tcl_GetIndexFromObjStruct.
+
+2013-04-12 Jan Nijtmans <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclDecls.h: Implement Tcl_Pkg* functions as
+ (faster/stack-saving) macros around Tcl_Pkg*Ex functions.
+
+2013-04-08 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * generic/regc_color.c: [Bug 3610026]: Stop crash when the number of
+ * generic/regerrs.h: "colors" in a regular expression overflows a
+ * generic/regex.h: short int. Thanks to Heikki Linnakangas for
+ * generic/regguts.h: the report and the patch.
+ * tests/regexp.test:
+
+2013-04-04 Reinhard Max <max@suse.de>
+
+ * library/http/http.tcl (http::geturl): Allow URLs that don't have a
+ path, but a query query, e.g. http://example.com?foo=bar
+ * Bump the http package to 2.8.7.

+
+2013-02-11 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclZlib.c (ZlibTransformOutput): [Bug 3603553]: Ensure that
+ data gets written to the underlying stream by compressing transforms

+
+2013-02-05 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>

+
+2013-02-05 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclLoadNone.c (TclpLoadMemory): [Bug 3433012]: Added dummy

+
+ * generic/tclInt.decls: Put back Tcl[GS]etStartupScript(Path|FileName)

+
+ * Makefile.in: Allow win32 build with -DTCL_NO_DEPRECATED, just as
+ * generic/tcl.h: in the UNIX build. Define Tcl_EvalObj and
+ * generic/tclDecls.h: Tcl_GlobalEvalObj as macros, even when
+ * generic/tclBasic.c: TCL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, so Tk can benefit
+ from it too.
+
+2013-01-14 Jan Nijtmans <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+ * win/tcl.m4: More flexible search for win32 tclConfig.sh, backported

+
+2013-01-14 Jan Nijtmans <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclInt.decls: Put back Tcl_[GS]etStartupScript in internal

+
+2013-01-13 Alexandre Ferrieux <ferrieux@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * doc/fileevent.n: [Bug 3436609]: Clarify readable fileevent "false

+
+2013-01-07 Jan Nijtmans <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclOOStubLib.c: Restrict the stub library to only use
+ * generic/tclTomMathStubLib.c: Tcl_PkgRequireEx, Tcl_ResetResult and
+ Tcl_AppendResult, not any other function. This puts least restrictions
+ on eventual Tcl 9 stubs re-organization, and it works on the widest
+ range of Tcl versions.
+
+2013-01-06 Jan Nijtmans <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+ * library/http/http.tcl: Don't depend on Spencer-specific regexp

+ Bump http package to 2.8.6.
+
+2013-01-04 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclEnsemble.c (CompileBasicNArgCommand): Added very simple
+ compiler (which just compiles to a normal invoke of the implementation
+ command) for many ensemble subcommands where we can prove that there
+ is no way for scripts to detect the difference even through error
+ handling or [info level]/[info frame]. This improves the code produced
+ from some ensembles (e.g., [info], [string]) to the point where the
+ ensemble is now not normally seen at the bytecode level at all.

+ Bron on the Tcler's Chat.
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c (TEBCresume:INST_INVOKE_REPLACE):
+ * generic/tclEnsemble.c (TclCompileEnsemble): Added new mechanism to

+ of bytecode-compiled ensembles. This can provide substantial speed
+ benefits in some cases.
+
+2013-01-02 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclEnsemble.c: Remove stray calls to Tcl_Alloc and friends:

+2012-11-26 Reinhard Max <max@suse.de>
+
+ * unix/tclUnixSock.c: Factor out creation of the -sockname and

+
+2012-11-13 Joe Mistachkin <joe@mistachkin.com>

+
+ * library/http/http.tcl (http::Finish): [Bug 3581754]: Ensure that
+ callbacks are done at most once to prevent problems with timeouts on a
+ keep-alive connection (combined with reentrant http package use)
+ causing excessive stack growth. Not a fix for the underlying problem,
+ but ensures that pain will be mostly kept away from users.
+ Bump http package to 2.8.5.
+
+2012-11-05 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ Added bytecode compilation of many Tcl commands. Some of these are
+ total compilations and some are only partial (i.e., only compile in
+ some cases). The (sub-)commands affected are:
+ * array: exists, set, unset
+ * dict: create, exists, merge
+ * format: (simple cases only)
+ * info: commands, coroutine, level, object
+ * info object: class, isa object, namespace
+ * namespace: current, code, qualifiers, tail, which
+ * regsub: (only cases convertable to simple [string map])
+ * self: (only no-argument and [self object] cases)
+ * string: first, last, map, range
+ * tailcall:
+ * yield:
+
+ [This was work originally done on the 'dkf-compile-misc-info' branch.]
+
+2012-11-05 Jan Nijtmans <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+ IMPLEMENTATION OF TIP#413
+
+ Align the [string trim] and [string is space] commands, such that
+ [string trim] by default trims all characters for which [string is
+ space] returns 1, augmented with the NUL character.
+
+ * generic/tclUtf.c: Add NEL, BOM and two more characters to [string is
+ space]
+ * generic/tclCmdMZ.c: Modify [string trim] for Unicode modifications.
+ * generic/regc_locale.c: Regexp engine must match [string is space]
+ * doc/string.n
+ * tests/string.test
+ ***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
+ Code that relied on characters not previously trimmed being not
+ removed will notice a difference; it is believed that this is rare,
+ but a workaround to get the behavior in Tcl 8.5 is to use " \t\n\r" as
+ an explicit trim set.
+
+2012-10-31 Jan Nijtmans <nijtmans@users.sf.net>

+ the [dict unset] command (for scalar var in LVT only).
+
+2012-10-23 Jan Nijtmans <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclInt.h: Add "flags" parameter from Tcl_LoadFile to

+
+2012-10-17 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>

+
+2012-10-16 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ IMPLEMENTATION OF TIP#405
+
+ New commands for applying a transformation to the elements of a list
+ to produce another list (the [lmap] command) and to the mappings of a
+ dictionary to produce another dictionary (the [dict map] command). In
+ both cases, a [continue] will cause the skipping of an element/pair,
+ and a [break] will terminate the construction early and successfully.
+
+ * generic/tclCmdAH.c (Tcl_LmapObjCmd, TclNRLmapCmd): Implementation of
+ the new [lmap] command, based on (and sharing much of) [foreach].
+ * generic/tclDictObj.c (DictMapNRCmd): Implementation of the new [dict
+ map] subcommand, based on (and sharing much of) [dict for].
+ * generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileLmapCmd, TclCompileDictMapCmd):
+ Compilation engines for [lmap] and [dict map].
+
+ IMPLEMENTATION OF TIP#400
+
+ * generic/tclZlib.c: Allow the specification of a compression
+ dictionary (a binary blob used to seed the compression engine) in both
+ streams and channel transformations. Also some reorganization to allow
+ for getting gzip header dictionaries and controlling buffering levels
+ in channel transformations (allowing a trade-off between formal
+ correctness and speed).
+ (Tcl_ZlibStreamSetCompressionDictionary): New C API to allow setting
+ the compression dictionary without using a Tcl script.
+
+2012-10-14 Jan Nijtmans <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclDictObj.c: [Bug 3576509]: ::tcl::Bgerror crashes with

+
+2012-10-13 Jan Nijtmans <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
