2000-02-10 Jeff Hobbs * unix/README: * unix/Makefile.in (dist): removed porting.notes and porting.old from distribution and CVS. The information was very outdated. Now refer to http://dev.scriptics.com/services/support/platforms.html * tests/unixInit.test: fixed japanese LANG encoding test [Bug: 3549] * unix/configure.in: * unix/tcl.m4: correct CFLAG_WARNING setting, fixed gcc config for AIX, added -export-dynamic to LDFLAGS for FreeBSD-3+ [Bug: 2998] * win/tclWinLoad.c (TclpLoadFile): improved error message for load failures, could perhaps be even more intelligent. 2000-02-09 Jim Ingham * mac/tclMacSock.c: Don't panic when you get an error closing an async socket. This doesn't seem to hurt anything, and we return the error so the caller can do the right thing. New Files: * mac/MW_TclHeader.h: * mac/MW_TclTestHeader.h: * mac/MW_TclTestHeader.pch: * mac/MW_TclAppleScriptHeader.h: More convenient to use .h prefix files in the preference panels... The above are curtesy of Daniel Steffen (steffen@math.mq.edu.au) 2000-02-08 Eric Melski * tests/clock.test: Added tests for "next monthname" constructs. * generic/tclDate.c: * generic/tclGetDate.y (Message): Added a grammar rule for "next monthname" so that we can handle "next january" and similar constructs (bug #4146). 2000-02-08 Jeff Hobbs * README: * tools/tcl.wse.in: * unix/configure.in: * win/configure.in: * win/README: * win/README.binary: * generic/tcl.h (TCL_RELEASE_SERIAL): Moved to 8.3.0 patchlevel * doc/library.n: * library/auto.tcl: fixed crufty puts code and docs [Bug: 4122] * library/tcltest1.0/tcltest.tcl: correctly protected searchDirectory list to allow dirnames with spaces * unix/tcl.m4: changed all -fpic to -fPIC * generic/tclDecls.h: * generic/tcl.decls: change Tcl_GetOpenFile to use decl of 'int forWriting' instead of 'int write' to avoid shadowing [Bug: 4121] * tests/httpold.test: changed test script to source in the httpd server procs from httpd instead of having its own set. * tests/httpd: improved query support in test httpd to handle fix in http.tcl. [Bug: 4089 change 2000-02-01] * unix/README: fixed notes about --enable-shared and add note about --disable-shared. 2000-02-07 Eric Melski * tests/package.test: * library/tclIndex: * library/package.tcl: Renamed ::package namespace to ::pkg. 2000-02-04 Eric Melski * doc/tree.n: * doc/stack.n: * doc/queue.n: docs for tree, stack, and queue. * win/Makefile.in: * unix/Makefile.in: Added struct1.0 to list of libraries to install. * tests/stackstruct.test: stack tests * tests/queue.test: queue tests * library/struct1.0/queue.tcl: queue data structure. * library/struct1.0/stack.tcl: stack data structure. * library/struct1.0/pkgIndex.tcl: * library/struct1.0/struct.tcl: data structure package 2000-02-03 Eric Melski * doc/Package.n: * doc/packagens.n: Renamed Package.n -> packagens.n because NT can't deal with case-sensitive names! 2000-02-02 Jeff Hobbs * tests/regexp.test: added tests for -all and -inline switches * doc/regexp.n: added docs for -all and -inline switches * generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_RegexpObjCmd): added extra comments for new -all and -inline switches to regexp command 2000-02-01 Eric Melski * library/init.tcl: Applied patch from rfe 1734 regarding auto_load errors not setting error message and errorInfo properly. 2000-02-01 Jeff Hobbs * win/Makefile.in (install-*): reduced verbosity of install * generic/tclFileName.c (Tcl_JoinPath): improved support for special QNX node id prefixes in pathnames [Bug: 4053] * library/http1.0/http.tcl: * library/http2.1/http.tcl: The query data POSTed was newline terminated when it shouldn't be altered [Bug: 4089] 2000-01-31 Eric Melski * tests/package.test: * library/tclIndex: * library/package.tcl: Added ::package namespace and ::package::create function. * library/init.tcl: Fixed problem with auto_load and determining if commands were loaded. * library/auto.tcl: "Fixed" issues with $ in files to be auto indexed. * doc/Package.n: New man page for package::create function. * doc/pkgMkIndex.n: Added additional information. * doc/library.n: Added additional qualification regarding auto_mkindex. 2000-01-28 Eric Melski * tests/pkg/magicchar2.tcl: * tests/autoMkindex.test: Test for auto loader fix (bug #2480). * library/init.tcl: auto_load was using [info commands $name] to determine if a given command was available; if the command name had * or [] it, this would fail because info commands uses glob-style matching. This is fixed. (Bug #2480). * tests/pkg/spacename.tcl: * tests/pkgMkIndex.test: Tests for fix for bug #2360. * library/package.tcl: Fixed to extract only the first element of the list returned by auto_qualify (bug #2360). * tests/pkg/magicchar.tcl: * tests/autoMkindex.test: Test for fix for bug #2611. * library/auto.tcl: Fixed the regular expression that performs $ escaping before sourcing a file to index. It was erroneously adding \ escapes even to $'s that were already escaped, effectively "un-escaping" those $'s. (bug #2611). 2000-01-27 Eric Melski * tests/autoMkindex.test: * library/auto.tcl: Applied patch (with slight modification) from bug #2701: auto_mkIndex uses platform dependent file paths. Added test for fix. 2000-01-27 Jennifer Hom * library/tcltest1.0/tcltest.tcl: Changed NormalizePath to normalizePath and exported it as a public proc. This proc creates an absolute path given the name of the variable containing the path to modify. The path is modified in place. * library/tcltest1.0/pkgIndex.tcl: Added normalizePath. * tests/all.tcl: Changed code to use normalizePath. 2000-01-27 Eric Melski * tests/pkg/samename.tcl: test file for bug #1983 * tests/pkgMkIndex.test: * doc/pkgMkIndex.n: * library/package.tcl: Per rfe #4097, optimized creation of direct load packages to bypass computing the list of commands added by the new package. Also made direct loading the default, and added a -lazy option. Fixed bug #1983, dealing with pkg_mkIndex incorrectly handling situations with two procs by the same name but in different namespaces (ie, foo::baz and bar::baz). 2000-01-26 Eric Melski * generic/tclNamesp.c: Undid fix for #956, which broke backwards compatibility. * doc/variable.n: * doc/trace.n: * doc/namespace.n: * doc/info.n: Added further information about differences between "namespace which" and "info exists". * doc/SetErrno.3: Added descriptions of ErrnoId() and ErrnoMsg() functions. 2000-01-25 Jeff Hobbs * unix/tcl.m4: modified EXTRA_CFLAGS to add -DHAVE_TZSET for OSF1-V* and ULTRIX-4.* when not using gcc. Also added higher min stack size for OSF1-V* when building with threads. [Bug: 4063] * generic/tclClock.c (FormatClock): inlined resultPtr, as it conflicted with var creation for HAVE_TZSET #def [Bug: 4063] * generic/tclCmdIL.c (Tcl_LsortObjCmd): fixed potential leak when calling lsort -command with bad command [Bug: 4067] * generic/tclFileName.c (Tcl_JoinPath): added support for special QNX node id prefixes in pathnames [Bug: 4053] * doc/ListObj.3: clarified Tcl_ListObjGetElements docs [Bug: 4080] * doc/glob.n: clarified Mac path separator determination docs. * win/makefile.vc: added some support for building helpfile on Windows 2000-01-23 Jeff Hobbs * library/init.tcl (auto_execok): added 'start' to list of recognized built-in commands for COMSPEC on NT. [Bug: 2858] * unix/tclUnixPort.h: moved include of lower since some systems (UTS) require sys/types.h to be included first [Bug: 4031] * unix/tclUnixChan.c (CreateSocketAddress): changed comparison with -1 to 0xFFFFFFFF, to ensure 32 bit comparison even on 64 bit systems. [Bug: 3878] * generic/tclFileName.c: improved guessing of path separator for the Mac. (Darley) * generic/tclInt.h: * generic/tcl.decls: moved Tcl_ProcObjCmd to stubs table [Bug: 3827] and removed 'register' from stub definition of Tcl_AppendUnicodeToObj [Bug: 4038] 2000-01-21 Eric Melski * unix/mkLinks: * doc/GetHostName.3: Man page for Tcl_GetHostName (bug #1817). * doc/lreplace.n: Corrected man page with respect to treatment of empty lists, and "prettied up" the page. (bug #1705). 2000-01-20 Eric Melski * tests/namespace.test: Added test for undefined variables with namespace which (bug #956). * generic/tclNamesp.c: Added check for undefined variables in NamespaceWhichCmd (bug #956). * tests/var.test: Added tests for corrected variable behavior (bug #981). * doc/upvar.n: Expanded explanation of upvar behavior with respect to variable traces. (bugs 3917 1433 2110). * generic/tclVar.c: Changed behavior of variable command when name refers to an element in an array (ie, "variable foo(x)") to always return an error, regardless of existance of that element in the array (now behavior is consistant with docs too) (bug #981). 2000-01-20 Jeff Hobbs * generic/tclCmdIL.c (InfoBodyCmd): made [info body] return a string if the body has been bytecompiled. * generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_EvalObjEx): added pedantic check for originating proc body of bytecompiled code, #def'd out as the change for [info body] should make it unnecessary * unix/tclUnixNotfy.c (Tcl_InitNotifier): added cast for tsdPtr * tests/set.test: added test for complex array elem name compiling * generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileSetCmd): Fixed parsing of array elements during compiling, and slightly optimised same [Bug: 3889] * doc/tclvars.n: added definitions for tcl_(non)wordchars * doc/vwait.n: added notes about requirement for vwait var being globally scoped [Bug: 3329] * library/word.tcl: changed tcl_(non)wordchars settings to use new unicode regexp char class escapes instead of char sequences 2000-01-14 Eric Melski * tests/var.test: Added a test for the array multiple delete protection in Tcl_UnsetVar2. * generic/tclVar.c: Added protection in Tcl_UnsetVar2 against attempts to multiply delete arrays when unsetting them (bug #3453). This could happen if there was an unset trace on an array element and the trace proc made a global or upvar link to the array, and then the array was unset at the global level. See the bug reference for more information. * unix/tclUnixTime.c: New clock format format. * compat/strftime.c: New clock format format. * generic/tclGetDate.y: New clock scan format. 2000-01-13 Jeff Hobbs * changes: updated changes file to reflect 8.3b2 mods * README: * generic/tcl.h: * tools/tcl.wse.in: * unix/configure.in: * unix/tcl.m4: * win/README.binary: * win/configure.in: updated to patchlevel 8.3b2 * generic/regexec.c: added var initialization to prevent compiler warning 2000-01-13 Eric Melski * tests/cmdIL.test: Added tests for lsort -dictionary with characters that occur between Z and a in ASCII. * generic/tclCmdIL.c: Modified DictionaryCompare function (used by lsort -dictionary) to do upper/lower case equivalency before doing character comparisons, instead of after. This fixes bug #1357, in which lsort -dictionary [list ` AA c CC] and lsort -dictionary [list AA c ` CC] gave different (and both wrong) results. 2000-01-12 Eric Melski * tests/clock.test: Added tests for "next " and "" Added tests for "monday 1 week ago", etc, from RFE #3671. * doc/tests/clock.test: Added numerous tests for clock scan. * doc/generic/tclGetDate.y: Fixed some shift/reduce conflicts in clock grammar. * doc/doc/clock.n: Added documentation for new supported clock scan formats and additional explanation of daylight savings time correction algorithm. 2000-01-12 Jeff Hobbs * doc/file.n: * tests/unixFCmd.test: * unix/tclUnixFCmd.c: added support for symbolic permissions setting in SetPermissionsAttribute (file attr $file -perm ...)

[Bug: 3797, 1966] 2000-01-11 Eric Melski * generic/tclGetDate.y: Added comments for the Convert function. Added a fix for daylight savings time handling for relative time spans of days, weeks or fortnights. (bug 3441, 3868). * generic/tclDate.c: Fixed compiler warning issues. 2000-01-10 Jeff Hobbs * compat/waitpid.c: use pid_t type instead of int [Bug: 3999] * tests/utf.test: fixed test that allowed \8 as octal value * generic/tclUtf.c: changed Tcl_UtfBackslash to not allow non-octal digits (8,9) in \ooo substs. [Bug: 3975] * generic/tcl.h: noted need to change win/tcl.m4 and tools/tclSplash.bmp for minor version changes * library/http2.1/http.tcl: trim value for $state(meta) key * unix/tclUnixFile.c: fixed signature style on functions * unix/Makefile.in: made sure tcl.m4 would be installed with dist * unix/tcl.m4: added ELF support for NetBSD [Bug: 3959] 2000-01-10 Eric Melski * generic/tclGetDate.y: Added rules for ISO 8601 formats (BUG #847): CCYY-MM-DD CCYYMMDD YY-MM-DD YYMMDD CCYYMMDDTHHMMSS CCYYMMDD HHMMSS CCYYMMDDTHH:MM:SS Fixed "clock scan " to scan the number as an hour for the current day, rather than a minute after 00:00 for the current day (bug #2732). 2000-01-07 Eric Melski * generic/tclClock.c: Changed switch in Tcl_ClockObjCmd to use enumerated values instead of constants. (ie, COMMAND_SCAN instead of 3). 1999-12-22 Jeff Hobbs * changes: updated changes file * tools/tclSplash.bmp: updated to show 8.3 1999-12-21 Jeff Hobbs * README: * generic/tcl.h: * mac/README: * unix/configure.in: * tools/tcl.wse.in: * win/README.binary: * win/configure.in: updated to patch level 8.3b1 * unix/Makefile.in: added -srcdir=... for 'make html' * doc/Hash.3: fixed reference to ckfree [Bug: 3912] * doc/RegExp.3: fixed calling params for Tcl_RegExecFromObj * doc/open.n: fixed minor formatting errors * doc/string.n: fixed minor formatting errors * doc/lsort.n: added -unique docs * tests/cmdIL.test: * generic/tclCmdIL.c: added -unique option to lsort * generic/tclThreadTest.c: changed thread ids to longs [Bug: 3902] * mac/tclMacOSA.c: fixed applescript for I18N [Bug: 3644] * win/mkd.bat: * win/rmd.bat: removed necessity of tag.txt [Bug: 3874] * win/tclWinThrd.c: changed CreateThread to _beginthreadex and ExitThread to _endthreadex 1999-12-12 Jeff Hobbs * doc/glob.n: * tests/fileName.test: * generic/tclInt.decls: * generic/tclInt.h: * generic/tclIntDecls.h: * generic/tclStubInit.c: * generic/tclEncoding.c: * generic/tclFileName.c: * mac/tclMacFile.c: * unix/tclUnixFile.c: * win/tclWinFile.c: enhanced the glob command with the new options -types -path -directory and -join. Deprecated TclpMatchFiles with TclpMatchFilesTypes, extended TclGlob and TclDoGlob and added GlobTypeData structure. [Bug: 2363] 1999-12-10 Jeff Hobbs * tests/var.test: * generic/tclCompile.c: fixed problem where setting to {} array would intermittently not work. (Fontaine) [Bug: 3339] * generic/tclCmdMZ.c: * generic/tclExecute.c: optimized INST_TRY_CVT_TO_NUMERIC to recognize boolean objects. (Spjuth) [Bug: 2815] * tests/info.test: * tests/parseOld.test: * generic/tclCmdAH.c: * generic/tclProc.c: changed Tcl_UplevelObjCmd (uplevel) and Tcl_EvalObjCmd (eval) to use TCL_EVAL_DIRECT in the single arg case as well, to take advantage of potential pure list input optimization. This means that it won't get byte compiled though, which should be acceptable. * generic/tclBasic.c: made Tcl_EvalObjEx pure list object aware in the TCL_EVAL_DIRECT case for efficiency. * generic/tclUtil.c: made Tcl_ConcatObj pure list object aware, and return a list object in that case [Bug: 2098 2257] * generic/tclMain.c: changed Tcl_Main to not constantly reuse the commandPtr object (interactive case) as it could be shared. (Fellows) * unix/configure.in: * unix/tcl.m4: * unix/tclUnixPipe.c: removed checking for compatible vfork function and use of the vfork function. Modern VM systems rarely suffer any performance degradation when fork is used, and it solves multiple problems with vfork. Users that still want vfork can add -Dfork=vfork to the compile flags. [Bug: 942 2228 1312] 1999-12-09 Jeff Hobbs * win/aclocal.m4: made it just include tcl.m4 * doc/exec.n: * doc/open.n: * win/tclWin32Dll.c: * win/tclWinChan.c: * win/tclWinFCmd.c: * win/tclWinInit.c: * win/tclWinPipe.c: * win/tclWinSock.c: removed all code that supported Win32s. It was no longer officially supported, and likely didn't work anyway. * win/makefile.vc: removed 16 bit stuff, cleaned up. * win/tcl16.rc: * win/tclWin16.c: * win/winDumpExts.c: these files have been removed from the source tree (no longer necessary to build) 1999-12-07 Jeff Hobbs * tests/io.test: removed 'knownBug' tests that were for unsupported0, which is now fcopy (that already has tests) * mac/tclMacPort.h: added utime.h include * generic/tclDate.c: * unix/Makefile.in: fixed make gendate to swap const with CONST so it uses the Tcl defined CONST type [Bug: 3521] * generic/tclIO.c: removed panic that could occur in FlushChannel when a "blocking" channel would receive EAGAIN, instead treating it the same as non-blocking. [Bug: 3773] * generic/tclUtil.c: fixed Tcl_ScanCountedElement to not step beyond the end of the counted string [Bug: 3336] 1999-12-03 Jeff Hobbs * doc/load.n: added note about NT's buggy handling of './' with LoadLibrary * library/http2.1/http.tcl: fixed error handling in http::Event [Bug: 3752] * tests/env.test: removed knownBug limitation from working test * tests/all.tcl: ensured that ::tcltest::testsDirectory would be set to an absolute path * tests/expr-old.test: * tests/parseExpr.test: * tests/string.test: * generic/tclGet.c: * generic/tclInt.h: * generic/tclObj.c: * generic/tclParseExpr.c: * generic/tclUtil.c: * generic/tclExecute.c: added TclCheckBadOctal routine to enhance error message checking for when users use invalid octal numbers (like 08), as well as replumbed the Expr*Funcs with a new VerifyExprObjType to simplify type handling. [Bug: 2467] * tests/expr.test: * generic/tclCompile.c: fixed 'bad code length' error for 'expr + {[incr]}' case, with new test case [Bug: 3736] and seg fault on 'expr + {[error]}' (different cause) that was caused by a correct optimization that didn't correctly track how it was modifying the source string in the opt. The optimization was removed, which means that: expr 1 + {[string length abc]} will be not be compiled inline as before, but this should be written: expr {1 + [string length abc]} which will be compiled inline for speed. This prevents expr 1 + {[mindless error]} from seg faulting, and only affects optimizations for degenerate cases [Bug: 3737] 1999-12-01 Scott Redman * generic/tcl.decls : * generic/tclMain.c : * unix/tclAppInit.c: * win/tclAppInit.c: Added two new internal functions, TclSetStartupScriptFileName() and TclGetStartupScriptFileName() and added hooks into the main() code for supporting TclPro and other "big" shells more easily without requiring a copy of the main() code. * generic/tclEncoding.c: * generic/tclEvent.c: Moved encoding-related startup code from tclEvent.c into the more appropriate tclEncoding.c. 1999-11-30 Jeff Hobbs * generic/tclIO.c: fix from Kupries for Tcl_UnstackChannel that correctly handles resetting translation and encoding. * generic/tclLoad.c: #def'd out the unloading of DLLs at finalize time for Unix in TclFinalizeLoad. [Bug: 2560 3373] Should be parametrized to allow for user to specify unload or not. * win/tclWinTime.c: fixed handling of %Z on NT for time zones that don't have DST. 1999-11-29 Jeff Hobbs * library/dde1.1/pkgIndex.tcl: * library/reg1.0/pkgIndex.tcl: added supported for debugged versions of the libraries * unix/tclUnixPipe.c: fixed PipeBlockModeProc to properly set isNonBlocking flag on pipe. [Bug: 1356 710] removed spurious fcntl call from PipeBlockModeProc * tests/scan.test: * generic/tclScan.c: fixed scan where %[..] didn't match anything and added test case [Bug: 3700] 1999-11-24 Jeff Hobbs * doc/open.n: * win/tclWinSerial.c: adopted patch from Schroedter to handle fconfigure $sock -lasterror on Windows. [RFE: 3368] * generic/tclCmdIL.c: made SORTMODE_INTEGER work with Longs [Bug: 3652] 1999-11-23 Scott Stanton * library/tcltest1.0/tcltest.tcl: Fixed bug where tcltest output went to stdout instead of the specified output file in some cases. 1999-11-19 Jeff Hobbs * generic/tclProc.c: backed out change from 1999-11-18 as it could affect return string from upvar as well. * tools/tcl.wse.in: added tcltest1.0 library to distribution list * doc/http.n: * library/http2.1/http.tcl: * library/http2.1/pkgIndex.tcl: updated http package to 2.2 1999-11-18 Jeff Hobbs * unix/tcl.m4: added defined for _THREAD_SAFE in --enable-threads case; added check for pthread_mutex_init in libc; in AIX case, with --enable-threads ${CC}_r is used; fixed flags when using gcc on SCO * generic/tclProc.c: corrected error reporting for default case at the global level for uplevel command. * generic/tclIOSock.c: changed int to size_t type for len in TclSockMinimumBuffers. * generic/tclCkalloc.c: fixed Tcl_DbCkfree to return a value on NULL input. [Bug: 3400] * generic/tclStringObj.c: fixed support for passing in negative length to Tcl_SetUnicodeObj, et al handling routines. [Bug: 3380] * doc/scan.n: * tests/scan.test: * generic/tclScan.c: finished support for inline scan by supporting XPG identifiers. * doc/http.n: * library/http2.1/http.tcl: added register and unregister commands to http:: package (better support for tls/SSL), as well as -type argument to http::geturl. [RFE: 2617] * generic/tclBasic.c: removed extra decr of numLevels in Tcl_EvalObjEx that could cause seg fault. (mjansen@wendt.de) * generic/tclEvent.c: fixed possible lack of MutexUnlock in Tcl_DeleteExitHandler [Bug: 3545] * unix/tcl.m4: Added better pthreads library check and inclusion of _THREAD_SAFE in --enable-threads case Added support for gcc config on SCO * doc/glob.n: added note about ..../ glob behavior on Win9* * doc/tcltest.n: fixed minor example errors [Bug: 3551] 1999-11-17 Brent Welch * library/http2.1/http.tcl: Correctly fixed the -timeout problem mentioned in the 10-29 change. Also added error handling for failed writes on the socket during the protocol. 1999-11-09 Jeff Hobbs * doc/open.n: corrected docs for 'a' open mode. * generic/tclIOUtil.c: changed Tcl_Alloc to ckalloc * generic/tclInt.h: * generic/tclObj.c: rolled back changes from 1999-10-29 Purify noted new leaks with that code * generic/tclParse.c: added code in Tcl_ParseBraces to test for possible unbalanced open brace in a comment * library/init.tcl: removed the installed binary directory from the auto_path variable * tools/tcl.wse.in: updated to 8.3a1, fixed install of twind.tcl and koi8-r.enc files * unix/tcl.m4: added recognition of pthreads library for AIX 1999-10-29 Brent Welch * generic/tclInt.h: Modified the TclNewObj and TclDecrRefCount in two ways. First, in the case of TCL_THREADS, we do not use the special Tcl_Obj allocator because that is a source of lock contention. Second, general code cleanup to eliminate duplicated code. In particular, TclDecrRefCount now uses TclFreeObj instead of duplicating that code, so it is now identical to Tcl_DecrRefCount. * generic/tclObj.c: Changed Tcl_NewObj so it uses the TclNewObj macro instead of duplicating the code. Adjusted TclFreeObj so it understands the TCL_THREADS case described above. * library/http2.1/http.tcl: Fixed a bug in the handling of the state(status) variable when the -timeout flag is specified.

Open issue, need to fix that hang. * tests/httpold.test: Add time delay in response from Http server so that test cases can properly detect timeout conditions with threads enabled on multi-CPU WinNT. * tests/winFCmd.test: Test case winFcmd-1.33 was looking for c:\windows, which may not exist. Instead, create a new directory on c:\ and use it for the test. * win/tclWinConsole.c: * win/tclWinPipe.c: * win/tclWinSock.c: Fix terminating helper threads by holding any mutexes from the primary thread while waiting for the helper thread to terminate. Without these changes, the test suite hangs on WinNT with 2 CPUs and threads enabled. Open issue, seems to be a sporadic hang on dual CPU systems still (very rare). 1999-07-26 Jennifer Hom * tests/tcltest.test: * library/tcltest1.0/tcltest.tcl: * doc/tcltest.n: Cleaned up code in ::tcltest::PrintError, revised documentation, and added tests for the tcltest package. 1999-07-23 * tests/info.test: * generic/tclParse.c: Removed patch for info command, breaks test cases on Unix.

[Bug: 2413] * tests/var.test: * generic/tclVar.c: Fixed bug that caused a seg. fault when using "array set a(b) {}", which is a bad array name anyway. Now the "array set" command will return an error in this case. Added test case and fixed existing test. [Bug: 2427] 1999-07-21 * tests/info.test: * generic/tclParse.c: Applied patch to fix "info complete" for the string {[a [b]}. Patch from Peter Spjuth. [Bug: 2382] * doc/Utf.3: * generic/tcl.decls: * generic/tclDecls.h: * generic/tclUtf.c: Changed function declarations in non-platform-specific public APIs to use "unsigned long" instead of "size_t", which may not be defined on certain compilers (rather than include sys/types.h, which may not exist). * unix/Makefile.in: Added the Windows configure script to the distribution file list, already shipping configure.in and the .m4 files, but needed the configure script itself. * win/makefile.vc: Changed version number of DDE package in VC++ makefile to use 1.1 instead of 1.0. * doc/open.n: Added documentation of \\.\comX notation for opening serial ports on Windows (alternative to comX:). * tests/ioCmd.test: * doc/open.n: * win/tclWinSerial.c: Applied patch from Rolf Schroedter to add -pollinterval option to fconfigure to modify the maxblocktime used in the fileevent polling. Added documentation and fixed the test case as well. * win/tclWinSock.c: Modified 8.1.0 version of the Win32 socket driver to move the handling of the socket event window in a separate thread. It also turned out that Win95 & Win98 were, in some cases, getting multiple FD_ACCEPTs but only handling one. Added a count for the FD_ACCEPT to take care of this. Tested on NT4 SP3, NT4 SP4, Win95, and Win98. [Bug: 2178 2256 2259 2329 2323 2355] 1999-07-21 * README: Small tweaks to clean up typos and wording. 1999-07-20 Melissa Hirschl * generic/tclInitScript.h: * unix/tclUnixInit.c: merged code with 8.0.5. We now use an intermediate global tcl var "tclDefaultLibrary" to keep the "tcl_library" var from being set by the default value in the Makefile. Also fixed a bug in which caused the value of TCL_LIBRARY env var to be ignored. * unix/tclWinInit.c: just updated some comments. 1999-07-19 Melissa Hirschl * library/http2.1/http.tcl: updated -useragent text to say version 2.1. 1999-07-16 * generic/tcl.decls: * generic/tclDecls.h: * generic/tclStubInit.c: Add Tcl_SetNotifier to stub table.

Modified the version numbers in the makefile to reflect the change to 8.2b1. 1999-07-09 * win/configure.in: Eval DLLSUFFIX, LIBSUFFIX, and EXESUFFIX in the configure script so that substitutions get expanded before being placed in the Makefile. The "d" portion for debug libraries and DLLs was not being set properly. 1999-07-08 * tests/string.test: * generic/tclCmdMZ.c: Fixed bug in string range bounds checking code. 1999-07-08 Jennifer Hom * doc/tcltest.n: * library/tcltest1.0/tcltest.tcl: Removed -asidefromdir and -relateddir flags, removed unused ::tcltest::dotests proc, cleaned up implementation of core file checking, and fixed the code that checks for 1-letter flag abbreviations. 1999-07-08 * win/Makefile.in: Added tcltest target so runtest works properly.

[Bug: 2335] 1999-07-06 * win/tclWinSerial.c: New implementation of serial port driver from Rolf Shroedter (Rolf.Schroedter@dlr.de) that allows more than one byte to be read from the port. Implemented using polling instead of threads, there is a max. 10ms latency between checking the port for file events. [Bug: 1980 2217] 1999-07-06 * library/http2.0/http.tcl: Fixed the -timeout option so it handles timeouts that occur during connection attempts to hosts that are down (the only case that really matters!) 1999-07-03 * doc/ChnlStack.3: * generic/tcl.decls: * generic/tclIO.c: Added a new variant of the "Trf patch" from Andreas Kupres that adds new C APIs Tcl_StackChannel, Tcl_UnstackChannel, and Tcl_GetStackedChannel. 1999-07-03 * generic/tclNotify.c: * unix/tclUnixNotfy.c: * unix/tclXtTest.c: * unix/tclXtNotify.c: * win/tclWinNotify.c: * mac/tclMacNotify.c: Added Tcl_SetNotifier and the associated hook points in the notifiers to be able to replace the notifier calls at runtime The Xt notifier and test program use this hook. 1999-07-03 * generic/tclParse.c: Changed parsing of variable names to allow empty array names. Now "$(foo)" is a variable reference! Previous you had to use something like $::(foo), which is slower. This change is requested by Jean-Luc Fontaine for his STOOOP package. 1999-07-01 * generic/tclCmdAH.c: * generic/tclFCmd.c: Call TclStat instead of TclpStat in order to allow Tcl_Stat hooks to work properly. 1999-06-29 Jennifer Hom * library/tcltest1.0/pkgIndex.tcl: * library/tcltest1.0/tcltest.tcl: * doc/tcltest.n: * tests/all.tcl: Added -preservecore, -limitconstraints, -help, -file, -notfile, -relateddir and -asidefromdir flags to the tcltest package along with exported proc ::tcltest::getMatchingFiles. The documentation was modified to match and all.tcl was modified to use the new functionality instead of implementing -file itself. 1999-06-28 * generic/tclIndexObj.c: * doc/GetIndex.3: * tests/binary.test: * tests/winDde.test: Applied patch from Peter Hardie (with changes) to fix problem with Tcl_GetIndexFromObj() when the key being passed is the empty string. It used to match "" and return TCL_OK, but it should have returned TCL_ERROR instead. Added test case to "binary" and "dde" commands to check the behavior. Added documentation note as well. 1999-06-26 * win/tclWinDde.c: Applied patch from Peter Hardie to add poke command to dde. Also rev'd version of dde package to 1.1. [Bug: 1738] 1999-06-25 Jennifer Hom * unix/Makefile.in: * win/Makefile.in: * library/tcltest1.0/pkgIndex.tcl: * library/tcltest1.0/tcltest.tcl: * library/tcltest1.0: Added initial implementation of the Tcl test harness package. This package was based on the defs.tcl file that was part of the tests directory. Reversed the way that tests were evaluated to fix a problem with false passes. * doc/tcltest.n: Added documentation for the tcltest package. * tests/README: * tests/defs.tcl: * tests/all.tcl: Modified all test files (tests/*.test) and all.tcl to use the new tcltest package and removed references to the defs.tcl file. Modified the README file to point to the man page for tcltest. 1999-06-25 * tests/reg.test: * generic/regexec.c: Fixed bugs in non-greedy quantifiers. 1999-06-23 * doc/re_syntax.n: * doc/switch.n: * doc/lsearch.n: * doc/RegExp.3: * doc/regexp.n: * doc/regsub.n: Moved information about syntax of 8.1 regular expressions from regexp(n) manpage into new re_syntax(n) page. Added pointers from other manpages to new re_syntax(n) page. 1999-06-23 * unix/Makefile.in: Changed install-doc to install-man. * tools/uniParse.tcl: * tools/uniClass.tcl: * tools/README: * tests/string.test: * generic/regc_locale.c: * generic/tclUniData.c: * generic/tclUtf.c: * doc/string.n: Updated Unicode character tables to reflect latest Unicode 2.1 data. Also rationalized "regexp" and "string is" definitions of character classes. 1999-06-21 * unix/tclUnixThrd.c (TclpThreadCreate): Fixed memory leak where thread attributes were not being released. [Bug: 2254] 1999-06-17 * tests/regexp.test: * generic/tclCmdMZ.c: * generic/tclCmdIL.c: Changed to use new regexp interfaces. Added -expanded, -line, -linestop, and -lineanchor switches to regsub. * doc/RegExp.3: Documented the new regexp interfaces and the compile/execute flags. * generic/tclTest.c: * generic/tclRegexp.h: * generic/tclRegexp.c: * generic/tcl.h: * generic/tcl.decls: Renamed Tcl_RegExpMatchObj to Tcl_RegExpExecObj and added a new Tcl_RegExpMatchObj that is equivalent to Tcl_RegExpMatch. Added public macros for the regexp compile/execute flags. Changed to store either an object pointer or a string pointer in the TclRegexp structure. Changed to avoid adding a reference to the object or copying the string. * generic/regcomp.c: lint * tests/reg.test: * generic/regex.h: * generic/regc_lex.c: Added REG_BOSONLY flag to allow Expect to iterate through a string an only find matches that start at the current position within the string. 1999-06-16 * unix/configure.in: * unix/Makefile.in: * unix/tcl.m4: * unix/aclocal.m4: Numerous build changes to make Tcl conform to the proposed TEA spec 1999-06-16 Melissa Hirschl * generic/tclVar.c (Tcl_VariableObjCmd): fixed premature increment in loop that was causing out-of-bounds reads on array "varName". 1999-06-16 * tests/execute.test: * generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): Fixed crash caused by a bug in INST_LOAD_SCALAR1 where the scalar index was read as a signed 1 byte value instead of unsigned. [Bug: 2243] 1999-06-14 Melissa Hirschl * doc/StringObj.3 * test/stringObj.test * unix/Makefile.in * win/Makefile.in * win/makefile.vc * generic/tclStringObj.c: Merged String and Unicode object types. Added new functions to the puplic API: Tcl_NewUnicodeObj, Tcl_SetUnicodeObj, Tcl_GetUnicode, Tcl_GetUniChar, Tcl_GetCharLength, Tcl_GetRange, Tcl_AppendUnicodeToObj. 1999-06-09 * generic/tclUnicodeObj.c: Lots of cleanup and simplification. Fixed several memory bugs. Added TclAppendUnicodeToObj. * generic/tclInt.h: Added declarations for various Unicode string functions. * generic/tclRegexp.c: * generic/tclCmdMZ.c: Changed to use new Unicode string interfaces for better performance. * generic/tclRegexp.h: * generic/tclRegexp.c: * generic/tcl.h: * generic/tcl.decls: Added Tcl_RegExpMatchObj and Tcl_RegExpGetInfo calls to access lower level regexp API. These features are needed by Expect. This is a preliminary implementation pending final review and cleanup. * generic/tclCmdMZ.c: * tests/string.test: Fixed bug where string map failed on null strings. * generic/regexec.c: * unix/tclUnixNotfy.c: lint * tools/genStubs.tcl: Changed to always write output in LF mode. 1999-06-08 * win/tclWinSock.c: Rolled back to the 8.1.0 implementation because of serious problems with the new driver. Basically no incoming socket connections would be reported to a server port. The 8.1.1 code needs to be redesigned and fixed correctly. 1999-06-07 Melissa Hirschl * tests/string.test: * generic/tclVar.c (Tcl_SetVar2Ex): * generic/tclStringObj.c (Tcl_AppendObjToObj): * generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_StringObjCmd): optimized the string index, string length, string range, and append command in cases where the object's internal rep is a bytearray. Objects with other internal reps are converted to have the new unicode internal rep. * unix/Makefile.in: * win/Makefile.in: * win/Makefile.vc: * tests/unicode.test: * generic/tclInt.h: * generic/tclObj.c: * generic/tclUnicodeObj.c: added a new object type to store the unicode representation of a string. * generic/tclTestObj.c: added the objtype option to the testobj command. This option returns the name of the type of internal rep an object has. 1999-06-04 * win/configure.in: * win/Makefile.in: Windows build now handles static/dynamic debug/nodebug builds and supports the standard targets using Cygwin user tools plus GNU make and autoconf. 1999-06-03 * generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_StringObjCmd): * tests/string.test: Fixed bug where string equal/compare -nocase reported wrong result on null strings. [Bug: 2138] 1999-06-02 * generic/tclUtf.c (Tcl_UtfNcasecmp): Fixed incorrect computation of relative ordering. [Bug: 2135] 1999-06-01 * unix/configure.in: Fixed various small configure.in patches submitted by Jan Nijtmans. [Bug: 2121] * tests/reg.test: * generic/regc_color.c: * generic/regc_cvec.c: * generic/regc_lex.c: * generic/regc_locale.c: * generic/regc_nfa.c: * generic/regcomp.c: * generic/regcustom.h: * generic/rege_dfa.c: * generic/regerror.c: * generic/regerrs.h: * generic/regex.h: * generic/regexec.c: * generic/regfree.c: * generic/regfronts.c: * generic/regguts.h: * generic/tclCmdMZ.c: * generic/tclRegexp.c: * generic/tclRegexp.h: * generic/tclTest.c: Applied Henry Spencer's latest regexp patches that fix an infinite loop bug and add support for testing whether a string could match with additional input. [Bug: 2117] 1999-05-28 * generic/tclObj.c: Changed to eliminate use of isupper/tolower in favor of the Unicode versions. * win/Makefile.in: * win/configure.in: Added preliminary TEA implementation. * win/tclWinDde.c: Fixed bug where dde calls were being passed an invalid dde handle because Initialize had not been called. [Bug: 2124] 1999-05-26 * generic/tclThreadTest.c: Fixed race condition in testthread code that showed up in the WinNT test suite intermittently. * win/tclWinSock.c: Fixed a hang in the WinNT socket driver, wake up the socket thread every 100ms to check for events on the sockets that did not wake up the thread (race condition). 1999-05-24 * tools/genStubs.tcl: Changed to allow a list of platforms instead of just one at a time. * generic/tcl.decls: * generic/tclCmdMZ.c: * generic/tclDecls.h: * generic/tclInt.decls: * generic/tclIntDecls.h: * generic/tclPort.h: * generic/tclStubInit.c: * generic/tclStubLib.c: Various header file related changes and other lint to try to get the Mac builds working. 1999-05-21 * win/tclWinPipe.c: Fix bug when launching command.com on Win95/98. Need to wait for the procInfo.hProcess of the process that was created, not the hProcess of the current process. [Bug: 2105] 1999-05-20 * library/init.tcl: Add the directory where the executable is, and the ../lib directory relative to that, to the auto_path variable. 1999-05-19 Merged in various changes submitted by Jeff Hobbs: * generic/tcl.decls: * generic/tclUtf.c: Added Tcl_UniCharIs* functions for control, graph, print, and punct classes. * generic/tclUtil.c: * doc/StrMatch.3: Added Tcl_StringCaseMatch() implementation to support case-insensitive globbing. * doc/string.n: * unix/mkLinks: * tests/string.test: * generic/tclCmdMZ.c: Added additional character class tests, added -nocase switch to "string match", changed string first/last to use offsets. 1999-05-19 * generic/tcl.h: Add extern "C" block around entire header file for C++ compilers to fix linkage issues. Submitted by Don Porter and Paul Duffin. * generic/tclRegexp.c: Fix bug when the regexp cache is empty and an empty pattern is used in regexp ( such as {} or "" ). 1999-05-18 * win/tclWinChan.c: Modified initialization code to avoid inherenting closed or invalid channels. If the standard input is anything other than a console, file, serial port, or pipe, then we fall back to the standard Tk window console. 1999-05-14 * generic/tclCmdAH.c (Tcl_ForObjCmd): Fixed crash caused by failure to reset the result before evaluating the test expression. 1999-05-14 * generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_CreateInterp): Added introspection variable for threaded interps. If the interp was compiled with threads enabled, the tcl_platform(threaded) variable will exist. 1999-05-14 * generic/tclDate.c: Applied patch to fix 100-year and 400-year boundaries in leap year code, from Isaac Hollander. [Bug: 2066] 1999-05-13 * unix/Makefile.in: * unix/tclAppInit.c: Minor cleanup related to Xt notifier. * unix/tclUnixInit.c (TclpSetInitialEncodings): Tcl now looks for an encoding subfield in the LANG/LC_ALL variables in cases where the locale is not found in the locale table. Ensure that setlocale() is called at least once so X11 will initialize properly. Also, forces the LC_NUMERIC locale to be "C" so numeric processing in scripts is not affected by the current locale setting. [Bug: 1989] * generic/tclRegexp.c: Increased per-thread regexp cache to 30 slots. This seems to be about the right number for larger applications like exmh. [Bug: 1063] 1999-05-12 * doc/tclsh.1: Updated references to rc script names to accurately reflect the platform differences on Windows. * tests/regexp.test: * generic/tclInt.h: * generic/tclBasic.c: * generic/tclRegexp.h: * generic/tclRegexp.c: Replaced the per-interpreter regexp cache with a per-thread cache. Changed the Regexp object to take advantage of this extra cache. Added a reference count to the TclRegexp type so regexps can be shared by multiple objects. Removed the per-interp regexp cache from the interpreter. Now regexps can be used with no need for an interpreter. [Bug: 1063] * win/tclWinInit.c (TclpSetVariables): Avoid calling GetUserName if the value can be determined from the USERNAME environment variable. GetUserName is very slow. 1999-05-07 * win/winDumpExts.c: * win/makefile.vc: Removed incorrect patch. [Bug: 1998] * generic/tcl.decls: Replaced const with CONST. * generic/tclResult.c (Tcl_AppendResultVA): * generic/tclStringObj.c (Tcl_AppendStringsToObjVA): Fixed to copy arglist using memcpy instead of assignment so it works properly on OS/390. [Bug: 1997] * generic/tclLoadNone.c: Updated to use current interfaces, added TclpUnloadFile. [Bug: 2003] * win/winDumpExts.c: * win/makefile.vc: Changed to emit library name in defs file. [Bug: 1998] * unix/configure.in: Added fix for OS/390. [Bug: 1976] 1999-05-06 * tests/string.test: * generic/tclCmdMZ.c: * doc/string.n: Fixed bug in string equal/compare code when using -length option. Cleaned up docs a bit more. * tests/http.test: Unset "data" array before running tests to avoid failures due to previous tests. * doc/string.n: * tests/cmdIL.test: * tests/cmdMZ.test: * tests/error.test: * tests/ioCmd.test: * tests/lindex.test: * tests/linsert.test: * tests/lrange.test: * tests/lreplace.test: * tests/string.test: * tests/cmdIL.test: * generic/tclUtil.c: * generic/tclCmdMZ.c: Replaced "string icompare/iequal" with -nocase and -length switches to "string compare/equal". Added a -nocase option to "string map". Changed index syntax to allow integer or end?-integer? instead of a full expression. This is much simpler with safeTcl scripts since it avoids double substitution issues. * doc/Utf.3: * generic/tclStubInit.c: * generic/tclDecls.h: * generic/tclUtf.c: * generic/tcl.decls: Added Tcl_UtfNcmp and Tcl_UtfNcasecmp. 1999-05-05 * win/makefile.vc: Added encoding directory to install-libraries target. 1999-05-03 * doc/string.n: * tests/cmdMZ.test: * tests/string.test: * generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_StringObjCmd): Changed "string length" to avoid regenerating the string rep of a ByteArray object. * tests/cmdIL.test: * tests/cmdMZ.test: * tests/error.test: * tests/lindex.test: * tests/linsert.test: * tests/lrange.test: * tests/lreplace.test: * tests/string.test: * generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_StringObjCmd): * generic/tclUtil.c (TclGetIntForIndex): Applied Jeff Hobbs's string patch which includes the following changes [Bug: 1845]: - string compare now takes optional length arg (for strncmp behavior) - added string equal (just a few lines of code blended in with string compare) - added string icompare/iequal for case-insensitive comparisons - string index's index can now be ?end[+-]?expression I made this change in the private TclGetIntForIndex, which means that the list commands also benefit, as well as string range, et al. - added [string repeat string count] Repeats given string number of times - added string replace, string equiv to lreplace (quasi opposite of string range): string replace first last ?string? Example of use, replacing end of string with ... should the string be more than 16 chars long: string replace $string 16 end "..." This just returns the string len < 16, so it will only affect the long strings. - added optional first and last args to string to* This allows you to just affect certain regions of a string with the command (like just capping the first letter). I found the original totitle to be too draconian to be useful. - added [string map charMap string] where charMap is a {from to from to} list that equates to what one might get from [array get]. Each and can be multiple chars (or none at all). For Tcl/CGI users, this is a MAJOR speed booster. * generic/tclParse.c (Tcl_ParseCommand): Changed to avoid modifying eval'ed strings that are already null terminated. [Bug: 1793] * tests/binary.test: * generic/tclBinary.c (DupByteArrayInternalRep): Fixed bug where type was not being set in duplicated object. [Bug: 1975, 2047] 1999-04-30 * Changed version to 8.1.1. 1999-04-30 * Merged changes from 8.1.0 branch: * generic/tclParse.c: Fixed memory leak in CommandComplete. * generic/tclPlatDecls.h: * generic/tclIntPlatDecls.h: * generic/tclIntDecls.h: * generic/tclDecls.h: * tools/genStubs.tcl: Added 'extern "C" {}' block around the stub table pointer declaration so the stub library can be used from C++. [Bug: 1934] * Lots of documentation and other release engineering fixes. 1999-04-28 * mac/tclMacResource.c: * generic/tclListObj.c: * generic/tclObj.c: * generic/tclStringObj.c: Changed to avoid freeing the string representation before freeing the internal rep. This helps with debugging since the string rep will still be valid when the free proc is invoked. 1999-04-27 * generic/tclLiteral.c (TclHideLiteral): Fixed so hidden literals get duplicated to avoid accidental sharing in the global object table. 1999-04-23 * generic/tclStubInit.c: * tools/genStubs.tcl: Changed to avoid the need for forward declarations in stub initializers. 1999-04-23 * library/encoding/koi8-r.enc: * tools/encoding/koi8-r.txt: Added support for the koi8-r Cyrillic encoding. [Bug: 1771] 1999-04-22 * win/tclWinFCmd.c: * win/tclWin32Dll.c: Changed uses of "try" to "__try", since that is the actual keyword. This eliminates the need for some -D flags from the makefile. * generic/tclPort.h: Added include of tcl.h since it defines various Windows macros that are needed before deciding which platform porting file to use. * generic/tclEvent.c: lint * win/tclWinInit.c (TclpInitPlatform): Added call to TclWinInit when building a static library since DllMain will not be invoked. This could break old code that explicitly called TclWinInit, but should be simpler in the long run. 1999-04-22 Scott Stanton * generic/tclInt.h: * generic/tclInt.decls: * generic/tclCompile.c: Added TclSetByteCodeFromAny that takes a hook procedure to invoke after compilation but before the byte codes are emitted. This makes it possible to do postprocessing on the compiled byte codes before the ByteCode is generated. * generic/tclLiteral.c: Added TclHideLiteral and TclAddLiteralObj to make it possible to create local unshared literal objects. * win/tclWinInit.c: * unix/tclUnixInit.c: Changed initial search path to match that found used by tcl_findLibrary. 1999-04-22 * win/tclWinPort.h: * win/tclWinSock.c: Added code to use WinSock 2.0 API on NT to avoid creating a window to handle sockets. API not available on Win95 and needs to be fixed on Win98, until then continue to use the older (window-based) scheme on those two OSes. 1999-04-15 * Merged 8.1 back into the main trunk 1999-04-13 * library/encoding/gb2312.enc: * library/encoding/euc-cn.enc: * tools/encoding/gb2312.txt: * tools/encoding/cp950.txt: * tools/encoding/Makefile: Restored the double byte definition of GB2312 and added the EUC-CN encoding. EUC-CN is a variant of GB2312 that shifts the characters into bytes with the high bit set and includes ASCII as a subset. [Bug: 632] 1999-04-13 * win/tclWinSock.c: Apply patch to allow write access to a socket if FD_WRITE is sent but FD_CONNECT is not. Some strange problem with either Win32 or a socket driver. [Bug: 1664 1776] 1999-04-09 * unix/tclUnixNotfy.c: Fixed notifier deadlock situation when the pipe used to talk back notifier thread is filled with data. When calling the write() function to feed data down that pipe, unlock the notifierMutex to allow the notifier to wake up again. Found as a result of the focus.test for Tk hanging. [Bug: 1700] 1999-04-06 * tests/unixNotfy.test: Fixed hang in tests when built with thread support. * tests/httpold.test: Fixed broken test that didn't wait long enough for events to arrive. * tests/unixInit.test: Fixed race condition in test. * tests/unixInit.test: * tests/fileName.test: Minor test nits. * unix/tclUnixInit.c (TclpSetInitialEncodings): Fixed bad initial encoding string. 1999-04-06 * generic/tclVar.c: * generic/tclEnv.c: Moved the "array set" C level code into a common routine (TclArraySet). The TclSetupEnv routine now uses this API to create an env array w/ no elements. * generic/tclEnv.c: * generic/tclWinInit.h: * generic/tclUnixInit.h: * generic/tclInt.h: Made the Env module I18N compliant. Changed the FindVariable routine to TclpFindVariable, that now does a case insensitive string comparison on Windows, and not on UNIX. [Bug: 1299, 1500] 1999-04-05 * tests/io.test: Minor test cleanup. * generic/tclEncoding.c (Tcl_CreateEncoding): Minor lint to make it easier to compile on Digital-unix. [Bug: 1659] * unix/configure.in: * unix/tclUnixPort.h: Applied patch for OS/390 to handle lack of sys/param.h. [Bug: 1725] * unix/configure.in: Fixed BSD/OS 4.* configuration to support shared libraries properly. [Bug: 1730] 1999-04-05 * win/tclWinDde.c: decrease timeout value for DDE calls to 30k [Bug: 1639] * generic/tcl.decls: * generic/tcl.h: * generic/tclDecls.h: * generic/tclInt.decls: * generic/tclInt.h: * generic/tclIntDecls.h: * generic/tclStubInit.c: * generic/tclUtil.c: Added more functions to the Tcl stubs table, including all Tcl_ functions not already in it (except Cmd functions) and Tcl_GetCwd() and Tcl_Chdir() (new functions). * tests/safe.test: * doc/safe.n: * generic/tclBasic.c: * library/safe.tcl: The encoding command is not safe as-is, so create a safe alias to mask out the "encoding system " but allow all other uses including "encoding system". Added test cases and updated the man page for Safe Tcl. 1999-04-05 * tests/winTime.test: * win/tclWinTime.c: Fixed crash in clock command that occurred when manipulating negative time values in timezones east of GMT. [Bug: 1142, 1458] * tests/platform.test: * tests/fileName.test: Fixed broken tests. * generic/tclFileName.c: Moved global regexps into thread local storage. * tests/socket.test: Changed so tests don't reuse sockets, since Windows is slow to release sockets. * win/tclWinConsole.c: * win/tclWinPipe.c: * win/tclWinSerial.c: Fixed race condition where background threads were terminated while they still held a lock in the notifier. 1999-04-02 * tests/http.test: Fixed bad test initialization code. * generic/tclThreadTest.c (ThreadExitProc): Fixed bug where static memory was being returned instead of a dynamically allocated result in error cases. 1999-04-02 * doc/dde.n: * tools/tcl.wse.in: * win/makefile.vc: * win/pkgIndex.tcl: * win/tclWinDde.c: Add new DDE package, code removed from Tk now separated into its own package. Changed DDE-based send code into "dde eval" command. Can be loaded into tclsh (not just wish). Windows only. 1999-04-02 * tests/expr.test: * tests/for-old.test: * tests/for.test: * tests/foreach.test: * tests/format.test: * tests/httpold.test: * tests/if.test: * tests/init.test: * tests/interp.test: * tests/while.test: Added some tests for known bugs (marked with knownBug constraint), and cleaned up a few bad tests. * generic/regc_locale.c: * generic/regcustom.h: * generic/tcl.decls: * generic/tclCmdIL.c: * generic/tclCmdMZ.c: * generic/tclInt.h: * generic/tclRegexp.c: * generic/tclScan.c: * generic/tclTest.c: * generic/tclUtf.c: * win/tclWinFCmd.c: * win/tclWinFile.c: Made various Unicode utility functions public. The following functions were made public and added to the stubs table: Tcl_UtfToUniCharDString, Tcl_UniCharToUtfDString, Tcl_UniCharLen, Tcl_UniCharNcmp, Tcl_UniCharIsAlnum, Tcl_UniCharIsAlpha, Tcl_UniCharIsDigit, Tcl_UniCharIsLower, Tcl_UniCharIsSpace, Tcl_UniCharIsUpper, Tcl_UniCharIsWordChar 1999-04-01 * tests/registry.test: * win/tclWinReg.c: Internationalized the registry code. It now uses Unicode interfaces on NT. [Bug: 1197] * tests/parse.test: * generic/tclParse.c: Fixed crash due to multiple frees in parser during error cleanup when parsing commands with more tokens than will fit in the static area of the parse structure. [Bug: 1681] * generic/tclInt.h: Removed duplicate declarations. * generic/tclInt.decls: * generic/tcl.decls: Added Tcl_WinUtfToTChar and Tcl_WinTCharToUtf to the tclPlat table. 1999-04-01 * generic/tcl.decls: * generic/tcl.h: * generic/tclBasic.c: * generic/tclDecls.h: * generic/StubInit.c: * tools/genStubs.tcl: * unix/Makefile.in: * win/makefile.vc: Applied patch from Jan Nijtmans to fix Ultrix multiple symbol definition problem. Now, even Tcl includes a copy of the Tcl stub library. Also fixed TCL_MEM_DEBUG mode (for Tk). 1999-03-31 * win/tclWinConsole.c: WinNT has a bug when reading a single character from the console. Rewrote the code for the console to read an entire line at a time using the reader thread. 1999-03-30 * unix/Makefile.in: Removed trailing backslash that broke the "depend" target. * unix/tclUnixInit.c (TclpSetInitialEncodings): Changed to avoid calling setlocale(). We now look directly at env(LANG) and env(LC_CTYPE) instead. [Bug: 1636] * generic/tclFileName.c: * generic/tclDecls.h: * generic/tcl.decls: Removed CONST from Tcl_JoinPath and Tcl_TranslateFileName because it changes the signature of Tcl_JoinPath in an incompatible manner. * generic/tclInt.h: * generic/tclLoad.c (TclFinalizeLoad): * generic/tclEvent.c (Tcl_Finalize): Defer unloading of loadable modules until all exit handlers have been invoked. [Bug: 998, 1273, 1573, 1593] 1999-03-29 * generic/tclFileName.c: * generic/tclDecls.h: * generic/tcl.decls: Added CONST to Tcl_JoinPath and Tcl_TranslateFileName. 1999-03-29 * tools/genStubs.tcl: * unix/configure.in: * unix/Makefile.in: * win/makefile.vc: * generic/tcl.h: * generic/tclBasic.c: * generic/tclDecls.h: * generic/tclIntDecls.h: * generic/tclPlatDecls.h: * generic/tclIntPlatDecls.h: Removed the stub functions and changed the stub macros to just use the name without params. Pass &tclStubs into the interp (don't use tclStubsPtr because of collisions with the stubs on Solaris). 1999-03-27 * win/makefile.bc: Removed makefile for Borland compiler, no longer supported. 1999-03-26 * win/tclWinSerial.c: * win/tclWinConsole.c: * win/tclWinPipe.c: Don't close the Win32 handle for a channel if it's a stdio handle (GetStdHandle()) during shutdown of a thread to prevent it from destroying the stdio of other threads. 1999-03-26 * unix/configure.in --nameble-shared is now the default and build Tcl as a shared library; specify --disable-shared to build a static Tcl library and shell. 1999-03-25 * tests/interp.test: * generic/tclInterp.c (AliasObjCmd): Changed so aliases are invoked at current scope in the target interpreter instead of at the global scope. This was an incompatibility introduced in 8.1 that is being removed. [Bug: 1153, 1556] * library/encoding/big5.enc: * library/encoding/gb2312.enc: * tools/encoding/big5.enc: * tools/encoding/gb2312.enc: Added ASCII to big5 and gb2312 encodings. [Bug: 632] * generic/tclPkg.c (Tcl_PkgRequireEx): Fixed broken clientData initialization in package code. * unix/Makefile.in (dist): Added tcl.decls and tclInt.decls to source distribution. [Bug: 1571] * doc/Thread.3: Updated documentation of Tcl_MutexLock to indicate that the recursive locking behavior is undefined. On Windows, it does not block, on Unix it deadlocks. [Bug: 1275] 1999-03-24 * tests/execute.test: * generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): Fixed expression code that incorrectly returned floating point values for integers if the internal rep happened to be a double. Now we check to see if the object has a string rep that looks like an integer before using the double internal rep. [Bug: 1516] 1999-03-24 * generic/tclAlloc.c: * generic/tclEncoding.c: * generic/tclProc.c: * unix/tclUnixTime.c: * win/tclWinSerial.c: Fixed compilation warnings/errors for VC++ 5.0 and 6.0 and HP-UX native compiler without -Aa or -Ae. [Bug: 1323 1518 1324 1583 1585 1586] * win/tclWinSock.c: Make sockets thread-safe on Windows. The current implementation uses windows to handle events on the socket, one for each thread (thread local storage). Previously, there was only one window shared between threads, which didn't work. [Bug: 1326] 1999-03-23 * tools/tcl.wse: Fixed file association to look in the right place for the wish icon. [Bug: 1544] * tests/winNotify.test: * tests/ioCmd.test: * tests/event.test: Changed to use new style conditionals. * tests/encoding.test: Fixed nonportable test. * unix/dltest/configure.in: * unix/dltest/Makefile.in: Added missing DBGX macros. [Bug: 1564] * tests/winNotify.test: * mac/tclMacNotify.c: * win/tclWinNotify.c: * unix/tclUnixNotfy.c: * generic/tclNotify.c: Added a new Tcl_ServiceModeHook interface that is invoked whenever the service mode changes. This is needed to allow the Windows notifier to create a communication window the first time Tcl is about to enter an external modal event loop instead of at startup time. This will avoid the various problems that people have been seeing where the system hangs when tclsh is running outside of the event loop. [Bug: 783] * generic/tclInt.h: * generic/tcl.decls: Renamed TclpAlertNotifier back to Tcl_AlertNotifier since it is part of the public notifier driver API. 1999-03-23 * win/tclWinSerial.c: Fixed problem with fileevent on the serial port and nonblocking mode. Gets no longer hangs, fileevents fire whenever there is any character data on the port. * tests/winConsole.test: * win/tclWinConsole.c: Fixed problem with fileevents and gets from a console stdin. Previously, fileevents were firing before an entire line was available for reading, which meant that when you did a gets or read, it blocked (even in nonblocking mode). Now, it should work the same as Unix: fileevents fire when an entire line is ready, and gets and read do not block in non-blocking mode. Added an interactive test case to check for this. 1999-03-22 * tests/reg.test: * generic/regc_color.c: Applied regexp bug fix from Henry Spencer. 1999-03-19 * generic/tclCmdIL.c: Fixed the initialization of an array so that the Sun 5.0 C compiler wouldn't complain. * unix/configure.in: Added support for --enable-64bit. For now, this is only supported on Solaris 7 64bit (SunOS 5.7) using the Sun compiler (not gcc). 1999-03-18 * win/tclWinChan.c (TclpOpenFileChannel, Tcl_MakeFileChannel): Changed to only test for console or comm handles when the type is FILE_TYPE_CHAR to avoid useless tests on simple files. Also reordered tests so consoles are tested first as this is more common. * win/makefile.vc: Regularized usage of mkd and rmd and rm. * library/encoding/shiftjis.enc: * tools/encoding/shiftjis.txt: Missing/incorrect characters in shift-jis table. [Bug: 1008, 1526] * generic/tclInt.decls: * generic/tcl.decls: Eliminated use of "string" and "list" from argument lists to avoid conflicts with C++ STL. [Bug: 1181] * win/tclWinFile.c (TclpMatchFiles): Changed to ignore the FS_CASE_IS_PRESERVED bit and always return exactly what we get from the system. 1999-03-17 * win/README.binary: * win/README: * unix/configure.in: * generic/tcl.h: * README: Updated version to 8.1b3. 1999-03-14 * win/tclWinConsole.c: * win/tclWinPipe.c: * win/tclWinSerial.c: Changed so channel drivers wait for the reader/writer threads to exit before returning during a close operation. This ensures that the main thread is the last thread to exit, so the process return value is set properly. * generic/tclIntDecls.h: * generic/tclIntPlatDecls.h: * generic/tclIntPlatStubs.c: * generic/tclIntStubs.c: * generic/tclPlatDecls.h: * generic/tclPlatStubs.c: * generic/tclStubInit.c: * generic/tclStubs.c: Fixed bad eol characters. * generic/tclInt.decls: Changed "const" to "CONST" in declarations for better portability. * generic/tcl.decls: Renamed panic and panicVA to Tcl_Panic and Tcl_PanicVA in the stub files. * generic/tclInterp.c (Tcl_MakeSafe): Remove tcl_platform(user) from safe interps. 1999-03-11 * unix/Makefile.in: * unix/configure.in: Include compat files in the stub library in addition to the main library. Compat files are now built for dynamic use in all cases. * generic/tcl.h: Changed magic number so it doesn't match the plus patch, at Jan's request. * unix/tclConfig.sh.in: * unix/dltest/Makefile.in: * unix/dltest/configure.in: * unix/dltest/pkga.c: * unix/dltest/pkgb.c: * unix/dltest/pkgc.c: * unix/dltest/pkgd.c: * unix/dltest/pkge.c: * unix/dltest/pkgf.c: Changed package tests to build against the stubs library. 1999-03-10 * generic/tcl.h: * generic/tcl.decls: Changed Tcl_ReleaseType from an enum to macros so it can be used in .rc files. Added Tcl_GetString. * mac/tclMacNotify.c: * generic/tclNotify.c: * generic/tclInt.h: * win/tclWinNotify.c: * generic/tcl.h: Renamed Tcl_AlertNotifier to TclpAlertNotifier. * generic/tclInt.decls: Added TclWinAddProcess to make it possible for expect to use Tcl_WaitForPid(). This patch is from Gordon Chaffee. * mac/tclMacPort.h: * win/tclWinInit.c: * unix/tclUnixPort.h: * generic/tclAsync.c: Added TclpAsyncMark to fix bug in async handling on Windows where async events don't wake up the event loop. This patch comes from Gordon Chaffee. * generic/tcl.decls: Fixed declarations of reserved slots. 1999-03-10 * generic/tclCompile.h: Ensure that the ByteCode struct is binary compatible with the version in 8.0.6. * generic/tcl.h: * generic/tclBasic.c: Add Tcl_GetVersion() function to the public C API to allow programs to check the version number of the Tcl library at runtime. Also added an enum to clarify the release level (alpha, beta, final). 1999-03-09 * Integrated changes from Tcl 8.0 including: stubs mechanism configure patches from Jan Nijtmans rename of panic to Tcl_Panic 1999-03-08 * win/tclWin32Dll.c: Removed Dll instance from thread-local storage. 1999-03-08 * generic/tcl.h: Moved Tcl_Mutex, etc. macros above the inclusion of tclDecls.h to avoid macro conflicts. * generic/tclInt.h: * generic/regc_color.c: * generic/regcomp.c: * generic/tclCmdIL.c: * generic/tclCmdAH.c: * generic/tclIOCmd.c: * generic/tclParse.c: * generic/tclStringObj.c: * unix/tclUnixNotfy.c: Cleaned up various compiler warnings, eliminated UCHAR bugs. * unix/tclUnixNotfy.c: * unix/tclUnixThrd.c: * generic/tclThreadTest.c: * mac/tclMacThrd.c: Changed TclpCondition*() to Tcl_Condition*(). * INTEGRATED PATCHES FROM 8.0.6: * generic/tcl.decls: * generic/tcl.h: * generic/tclBasic.c: * generic/tclDecls.h: * generic/tclInt.decls: * generic/tclInt.h: * generic/tclIntDecls.h: * generic/tclIntPlatDecls.h: * generic/tclIntPlatStubs.c: * generic/tclIntStubs.c: * generic/tclPlatDecls.h: * generic/tclPlatStubs.c: * generic/tclStubInit.c: * generic/tclStubLib.c: * generic/tclStubs.c: * tools/genStubs.tcl: * unix/configure.in: * unix/Makefile.in: * unix/tclConfig.sh.in: * win/makefile.vc: * win/tclWinPort.h: Added Tcl stubs implementation. There are now two new macros USE_TCL_STUBS and USE_TCL_STUB_PROCS that enable use of stubs and disable stub macros respectively. All of the public and private function declarations from tcl.h and tclInt.h have moved into the *.decls files and the *Stubs.c and *Decls.h files are generated using the genStubs.tcl script. * unix/Makefile.in: * unix/configure.in: * unix/ldAix: Enhanced AIX shared library support. * win/tclWinSock.c: Removed a bunch of extraneous PASCAL FAR attributes from internal functions. * win/tclWinReg.c: Changed registry package to use stubs mechanism so it no longer depends on the specific version of Tcl. * doc/AddErrInfo.3: * doc/Eval.3: * doc/PkgRequire.3: * doc/SetResult.3: * doc/StringObj.3: * generic/tcl.h: * generic/tclBasic.c: * generic/tclPanic.c: * generic/tclStringObj.c: * generic/tclUtil.c: * unix/mkLinks: Added va_list versions of all VARARGS functions so they can be invoked from the stub functions. * doc/package.n: * doc/PkgRequire.3: * generic/tclPkg.c: Added Tcl_PkgProvideEx, Tcl_RequireEx, Tcl_PresentEx, and Tcl_PkgPresent. Added "package present" command. * generic/tclFileName.c: * mac/tclMacFile.c: * mac/tclMacShLib.exp: * unix/tclUnixFile.c: * win/tclWinFile.c: Changed so TclGetUserHome is defined on all platforms, even though it is currently a noop on mac and windows, and renamed it to TclpGetUserHome. * generic/tclPanic.c: * generic/panic.c: Renamed panic to Tcl_Panic. 1999-02-25 * win/makefile.vc: Added tclWinConsole.c and tclWinSerial.c * win/tclWinConsole.c: New code to properly deal with fileevents and nonblocking mode on consoles. * win/tclWinSerial.c: New code to properly deal with fileevents and nonblocking mode on serial ports. * win/tclWinPipe.c: * win/tclWinPort.h: Exported functions to allow creation of pipe channels from tclWinChan.c * win/tclWinChan.c: Check the type of a channel, including for the standard (stdin/stdout/stderr), and use the correct channel type to create the channel (file, serial, console, or pipe). 1999-02-11 * README: * generic/tcl.h: * win/README.binary: * win/README: * unix/configure.in: * mac/README: Updated version numbers to 8.1b2. 1999-02-10 * library/auto.tcl: Fixed auto_mkindex so it handles .tbc files. Did some general cleanup to handle bad eval statements that didn't use "list". * unix/mkLinks: * doc/SetVar.3: * generic/tcl.h: * generic/tclVar.c: Restored Tcl_ObjGetVar2 and Tcl_ObjSetVar2 from 8.0. Renamed Tcl_Get/SetObjVar2 to Tcl_GetVar2Ex and Tcl_SetVar2Ex. 1999-02-10 INTEGRATED PATCHES FROM 8.0.5b2: * test/winPipe.test: Changed to remove echoArgs.tcl temporary file when done. * tests/cmdAH.test: * generic/tclFileName.c (TclGetExtension): Changed behavior so the split happens at the last period in the name instead of the first period of the last run of periods. So, "foo..o" is split into "foo." and ".o" now. [Bug: 1126] * win/makefile.vc: Added better support for paths with spaces in the name. Added .lib and support .dlls to the install-binaries target. Added generate of a pkgIndex.tcl script to the install-libraries target. * win/tclAppInit.c: * unix/tclAppInit.c: * mac/tclMacAppInit.c: * generic/tclTest.c: Changed some EXTERN declarations to extern since they are not defining exported interfaces. This avoids generating useless declspec() attributes and makes the windows makefile simpler. * generic/tcl.h: Moved Tcl_AppInit declaration to end and cleared out TCL_STORAGE_CLASS so it is not declared with a declspec(). * tests/interp.test: * generic/tclInterp.c (DeleteAlias): Changed to use Tcl_DeleteCommandFromToken so we handle renames properly. This avoids senseless panic. [Bug: 736] * unix/tclUnixChan.c: * win/tclWinSock.c: * doc/socket.n: Applied Gordon Chaffee's patch to handle failures during asynchronous socket connection operations. This adds a new "-error" fconfgure option to socket channels. [Bug: 893] * generic/tclProc.c: * generic/tclNamesp.c: * generic/tclInt.h: * generic/tclCmdIL.c: * generic/tclBasic.c: * generic/tclVar.c: Applied patch from Viktor Dukhovni to rationalize TCL_LEAVE_ERR_MSG behavior when creating variables. * generic/tclVar.c: Fixed bug in namespace tail computation. Fixed bug where upvar could resurrect a namespace variable whose namespace had been deleted. * generic/tclCompile.c (TclCompileExprCmd): Eliminated yet another bogus optimization in expression compilation. * unix/configure.in: Added branch for BSD/OS-4* to shared library case statement. [Bug: 975] Fixed to correctly handle IRIX 6.5 n32 library support. [Bug: 1117] * win/winDumpExts.c: Patched to be pickier about stripping @'s. [Bug: 920] * library/http2.0/http.tcl: Added catch around eof test in CopyDone since the user may have already called http::reset. [Bug: 1108] * unix/configure.in: Changed Linux and IRIX to set SHLIB_LIBS to LIBS so shared libraries are linked with the system libraries. [Bug: 1018] * generic/tclCompile.c (CompileExprWord): Fixed exception stack overflow bug caused by missing statement. [Bug: 928] * generic/tclIOCmd.c: * generic/tclBasic.c: Objectified the "open" command. [Bug: 1113] * generic/tclPosixStr.c (Tcl_ErrnoId, Tcl_ErrnoMsg): When using egcs, ENOTSUP and EOPNOTSUPP are the same, so now we handle that case. [Bug: 1137] * library/init.tcl: Various small changes requested by Jan Nijtmans. - If the variable $tcl_library contains the empty string, this empty string will be put in $auto_path. This is not useful at all, it only slows down later package processing. - If the variable tcl_pkgPath is not set, the "unset __dir" fails. Thich makes init.tcl totally unusable. Better put a "catch" around it. - In the function tcl_findLibraries, the "string match" function only works correctly if $tcl_patchLevel is in one of the forms "?.?a?", "?.?b?" or "?.?.?". Could a "regexp" be used instead, then it allows anything to be appended to the patchLevel string. And it is more efficient. - The tclPkgSetup function assumes that if $type != "load" then the type must be "source". This needn't be true. Some users want to add their own setup types. [RFE: 1138] [Bug: 978] * win/tclWinReg.c: * doc/registry.n: Added support for HKEY_PERFORMANCE_DATA and HKEY_DYN_DATA keys. [Bug: 1109] * win/tclWinInit.c (TclPlatformInit): Added code to ensure tcl_pkgPath is set to "" when no registry entry is found. [Bug: 978] 1999-02-01 * generic/tclBasic.c: * generic/tclCmdAH.c: * generic/tclCmdIL.c: * generic/tclCmdMZ.c: * generic/tclExecute.c: * generic/tclHistory.c: * generic/tclIO.c: * generic/tclIOUtil.c: * generic/tclInterp.c: * generic/tclMain.c: * generic/tclNamesp.c: * generic/tclParse.c: * generic/tclProc.c: * generic/tclTest.c: * generic/tclTimer.c: * generic/tcl.h: Made eval interfaces compatible with 8.0 by renaming Tcl_EvalObj to Tcl_EvalObjEx, renaming Tcl_Eval2 to Tcl_EvalEx and restoring Tcl_EvalObj and Tcl_GlobalEvalObj interfaces so they match Tcl 8.0. 1999-01-28 * Merged Tcl 8.0.5b1 changes. * generic/tclUtil.c (Tcl_DStringSetLength): Changed so the buffer overallocates in a manner similar to Tcl_DStringAppend. This should improve performance for TclUniCharToUtfDString. 1998-12-11 === Tcl 8.1b1 Release === 1998-12-10 * Fixed lots of files that used TCL_THREAD instead of TCL_THREADS. * generic/tclEncoding.c (Tcl_FreeEncoding): Moved most of the code into a static FreeEncoding routine that does not grab the encodingMutex to avoid deadlocks/races when called from other routines that already have the mutex. 1998-12-09 * library/msgcat1.0/msgcat.tcl: Fixed bad export list, fixed so all locale strings are converted to lower case, including file names. * generic/regcomp.c (makescan): Fixed bug in longest match case that caused anchored patterns to fail. [Bug: 897] 1998-12-08 * library/msgcat1.0/msgcat.tcl: changed mc to invoke mcunknown in the calling context, changed locale lookups to be case insensitive 1998-12-07 * generic/tclAlloc.c (TclpRealloc): Fixed a memory allocation bug where big blocks that were reallocated into a different heap location were not being placed into the bigBlocks list. [Bug: 933] * tests/msgcat.test: Added message catalog test suite. * library/msgcat1.0/msgcat.tcl: minor bug fixes, integrated latest changes from Mark Harrison. 1998-12-04 * library/msgcat1.0/msgcat.tcl: Changed code to conform to Tcl coding standards. Changed to use file join for portability. * library/msgcat1.0: Added initial implementaion of Tcl message catalog package contributed by Mark Harrison. 1998-12-03 * win/tclWinPipe.c (BuildCommandLine): Fixed bug that kept arguments containing spaces from being properly quoted. * tests/defs: Changed so auto_path is set to only contain the Tcl library directory. This keeps the tests from accidentally picking up stuff in installed packages. * generic/tclUtil.c (Tcl_StringMatch): Changed to match 8.0 behavior in corner case where there is no closing bracket. 1998-12-02 * win/tclWinPipe.c (TclpCreateCommandChannel): Changed reader/writer threads to have THREAD_PRIORITY_HIGHEST so they will have a chance to run whenever there is something to do. * generic/tclIO.c (WriteBytes, WriteChars): Fixed so extraneous flushes do not happen in line mode. (TranslateOutputEOL): Made translation more efficient in line mode and fixed a buffer overflow bug in CRLF translation. [Bug: 887] 1998-12-02 * Updated patchlevel to 8.1b1 1998-12-02 * generic/regc_color.c (subcolor): Added check for error case to avoid an out of bounds array reference. * generic/tclCmdAH.c (Tcl_EncodingObjCmd): Changed to avoid using Tcl_DStringResult because it is not binary clean. * generic/tclParse.c (Tcl_ParseCommand): Fixed bug in comment parsing where a trailing comment looked like an incomplete command. 1998-12-02 * Merged changes from 8.0.4, especially the new pkg_mkIndex 1998-12-01 * generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_ReadChars): Added a call to UpdateInterest so we don't block when there is data sitting in the buffers. * generic/tclTest.c (TestevalobjvObjCmd): Updated for EvalObjv change. * tests/parse.test: Updated tests for EvalObjv change. * generic/tclParse.c (EvalObjv, Tcl_EvalObjv): Changed Tcl_EvalObjv interface to remove string and length arguments, preserved original interface as EvalObjv for internal use. * generic/tcl.h: Changed Tcl_EvalObjv interface to remove string and length arguments. * doc/Eval.3: Updated documentation for Tcl_EvalObjv to remove string and length arguments. * generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileForeachCmd): Fixed code that corrupted the exceptDepth value in the compile environment when foreach failed to compile inline. [Bug: 884] * library/encoding/euc-kr.enc: * library/encoding/ksc5601.enc: * tools/encoding/ksc5601.txt: * unix/tclUnixInit.c: Added support for Korean EUC. * win/tclWinChan.c (TclpGetDefaultStdChannel): added check for a failure during Tcl_MakeFileChannel. 1998-11-30 * unix/tclUnixNotfy.c (Tcl_WaitForEvent): Fixed hang that occurs when trying to close a pipe that is currently being waited on by the notifier thread. [Bug: 607] * unix/tclUnixFCmd.c (GetPermissionsAttribute): Increase size of returnString buffer to avoid overflow. [Bug: 584] * generic/tclThreadTest.c (TclThreadSend): Fixed memory leak due to use of TCL_VOLATILE instead of TCL_DYNAMIC. * generic/tclThread.c (TclRememberSyncObject): Fixed memory leak caused by failure to reuse condition variables. * unix/tclUnixNotfy.c: (Tcl_AlertNotifier, Tcl_WaitForEvent, NotifierThreadProc, Tcl_InitNotifier): Fixed race condition caused by incorrect use of condition variables when sending messages between threads.. [Bug: 607] * generic/tclTestObj.c (TeststringobjCmd): MAX_STRINGS was off by one so the strings array was too small. * generic/tclCkalloc.c (Tcl_DbCkfree): Moved mutex lock so ValidateMemory is done inside the mutex to avoid a race condition when validate_memory is enabled. [Bug: 880] 1998-11-23 * regexec.c: more performance tuning from Henry Spencer. 1998-11-17 * tclScan.c: moved "scan" implementation out of tclCmdMZ.c and added Unicode support. This required a complete reimplementation of the command to avoid using scanf(), which isn't Unicode aware. Two new features were added in the process: %n to return the current number of characters consumed, and XPG3-style %n$ argument order specifiers similar to those provided by the "format" command. [Bug: 833] * tclAlloc.c: changed so allocated memory is always 8-byte aligned to improve memory performance and to ensure that it will work on systems that don't like accessing 4-byte aligned values (e.g. Solaris and HP-UX). [Bug: 834] 1998-11-06 * tclVar.c (TclGetIndexedScalar): Fixed bug 796, var name was getting lost before being passed to CallTraces. 1998-10-21 * added "encoding" command * Moved internal regexp declarations from tclInt.h to tclRegexp.h * integrated regexp updates from Henry Spencer 1998-10-15 * tclUtf.c: added Unicode character table support * tclInt.h: added TclUniCharIsWordChar * tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_StringObjCmd): added "totitle" subcommand, changed "wordend" and "wordstart" to properly handle Unicode word characters and connector punctuation 1998-10-05 * auto.tcl, package.tcl: fixed SCCS strings * tclIndex: updated index to reflect 8.1 files * tclCompile.c (TclCompileScript): changed to avoid modifying the input string in place because name lookup operations could have arbitrary side effects * tclInterp.c: added guard against deleting current interpreter * tclMacFile.c, tclUnixFile.c, tclWinFile.c, tclFileName.c: added warnings around code that modifies strings in place * tclExecute.c: fixed off-by-one copying error, fixed merge bugs * tclEvent.c: changed so USE_TCLALLOC is tested for value instead of definition * tclCompCmds.c: replaced SCCS strings, added warnings around code that modifies strings in place * interp.test: added test for interp deleting itself 1998-09-30 * makefile.vc: fixed so TCL_LIBRARY is set before running tcltest * tclWin32Dll.c: removed TclpFinalize, cleanup of merges
