(redman) --------------- Released 8.2b2, August 5, 1999 ---------------------- + +8/9/99 (internal api change) Removed the TclpMutexLock and TclpMutexUnlock +APIs and added a new exported api, Tcl_GetAllocMutex. These APIs are all for +the mutex used in the simple memory allocators. By making this change +we are able to substitute different implementations of the thread-related +APIs without having to recompile the Tcl core. (welch) + +8/9/99 (new C API) Tcl_GetChannelNames returns a list of open channel +names in the interpreter result. Still no Tcl-level version of this, +but server-like applications can use this to clean up files without +deleting interpreters. (welch) + +8/9/99 (bug fix) Traces were not firing on "info exists", which used to +happen in Tcl 7.6 and earlier. An "info exists" now fires a read trace, +if defined. This makes it possible to fully implement variables that +are defined via traces. (welch) |
