+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c:
+ * tests/expr-old.test: Re-wrote Tcl's [expr rand()] and [expr
+ srand($seed)] implementations, fixing a range error on some 64-bit
+ platforms. Added tests that detect the bug. The rewrite changes the
+ seed -> sequence map on 64-bit platforms, only for seed >= 2^31, a
+ slight incompatibility. [Bug 121072, Patch 102781]

+ * library/init.tcl:
+ * library/msgcat/msgcat.tcl:
+ * library/msgcat/pkgIndex.tcl:
+ * library/opt/optparse.tcl:
+ * library/opt/pkgIndex.tcl: Where [uplevel] is used in a proc to
+ evaluate a Tcl built-in command in the caller's context, the built-in
+ commands are now fully namespace-qualified. This prevents problems
+ when the caller context is in a namespace where the built-in command
+ name has been used by a command in the namespace. (For example,
+ [::ns::set] might be called instead of the intended [::set]). [Bug
+ 119422, Patch 102545]
+
+2000-12-09 Jeff Hobbs <jhobbs@interwoven.com>
+
+ * win/tclWinTime.c (CalibrationThread): added lint return value to
+ prevent compiler warning. [Bug 125005]
+
+ * docs/scan.n:
+ * tests/scan.test:
+ * generic/tclScan.c (Tcl_ScanObjCmd): changed %o and %x to use strtoul
+ instead of strtol to correctly preserve scan<>format conversion of
+ large integers. [Patch 102663, Bug 124600]
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): Commited patch fixing
+ handling of {!<boolean>} in expressions. [Patch 102702]
+
+2000-12-08 Jeff Hobbs <jhobbs@interwoven.com>
+
+ * library/init.tcl: Added support for PATHEXT variable in auto_execok,
+ recognizing the proper set of executable extensions on Windows. [Patch
+ 102719]
+
+2000-12-08 Andreas Kupries <a.kupries@westend.com>
+
+ * generic/tclEncoding.c (LoadTableEncoding): Changed dangerous code to
+ something less critical. This fixes [Bug 119417], part A without
+ affecting the speed when loading encodings.
+
+2000-12-08 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
+
+ * doc/open.n: Added xref to fconfigure and advice on the opening of
+ binary files. Should help prevent a recurrence of bugs like [Bug
+ 124558]
+
+2000-12-07 Jeff Hobbs <jhobbs@interwoven.com>
+
+ * generic/tcl.h: added note about need to updated
+ library/dde/pkgIndex.tcl with minor version increment.
+
+ * library/dde/pkgIndex.tcl: updated to use 84 version to reflect the
+ makefile. Should probably be updated to use its real version at some
+ point. [Patch 102560, Bug 119421]
+
+2000-12-06 Eric Melski <ericm@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * generic/tcl.h (attemptckalloc): Fixed typo for #define of
+ attemptckalloc (was defined to Tcl_AttempDbCkalloc, should have been
+ Tcl_AttemptDbCkalloc). [Bug 124384]
+
+ * generic/tclCkalloc.c: Added TCL_MEM_DEBUG versions of
+ Tcl_AttemptDbCkrealloc and Tcl_AttemptDbCkalloc. [Bug 124384].
+
+2000-11-24 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): Logical negation "!" can
+ now handle string booleans, provided those values are placed in
+ variables.
+
+ * tests/expr.test (expr-13.17): Check that [expr {!$var}] can negate
+ the string-versions of booleans "yes", "false", etc.
+
+ * library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl (getMatchingFiles,
+ (getMatchingDirectories):
+ * tools/man2html.tcl (doDir):
+ * tools/man2help.tcl (doDir):
+ * library/package.tcl (tclPkgUnknown,tclMacPkgSearch):
+ * library/safe.tcl (AddSubDirs): [glob] uses -directory instead of
+ unsafe [file join]. [Bug 123313]
+
+ * generic/tclIndexObj.c:
+ * generic/tclTestObj.c (TestindexobjCmd): Changed internal
+ representation of index objects to fix [Bug 119082]; fix shouldn't be
+ visible to outside world...
+
+ * generic/tclTest.c (TestGetIndexFromObjStructObjCmd):
+ * tests/indexObj.test: (indexObj-6.*) Added to test for presence of
+ [Bug 119082].
+
+2000-11-23 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
+
+ * generic/tclCmdIL.c (Tcl_LsortObjCmd): Fixed memory leak from [Bug
+ 119398]
+
+ * library/init.tcl (unknown): Added specific level parameters to
+ all uplevel invokations to boost performance; didn't dare touch
+ the "namespace inscope" stuff though, since it looks sensitive
+ to me! Should fix [Bug 123217], though testing is tricky...
+

+
+ All of the changes below are described in TIP #7 ~ Specification and
+ result from the application of the patch contained therein. Creator of
+ the patch is Kevin Kenny <kennykb@crd.ge.com>. The patch used here is
+ actually a bit different. Two MS specific constant values (format
+ FOOui64) were replaced with a more portable formatting of the values
+ and an additional cast to LONGLONG. My cross-compiling gcc was unable
+ to process the original form. [Patch 102459]
+
+ * tclWinTime.c: Add to the static data a set of variables that manage
+ the phase-locked techniques, including a ''CRITICAL_SECTION'' to guard
+ them so that multi-threaded code is stable.
+
+ * tclWinTime.c: Modify ''TclpGetSeconds'' to call ''TclpGetTime'' and
+ return the 'seconds' portion of the result. This change is necessary
+ to make sure that the two times are consistent near the rollover from
+ one second to another.
+
+ * tclWinTime.c: Modify ''TclpGetClicks'' to use TclpGetTime to
+ determine the click count as a number of microseconds.
+
+ * tclWinTime.c: Modify ''TclpGetTime'' to return the time as M*Q+B,
+ where Q is the result of ''QueryPerformanceCounter'', and M and B are
+ variables maintained by the phase-locked loop to keep the result as
+ close as possible to the system clock. The ''TclpGetTime'' call will
+ also launch the phase-lock management in a separate thread the first
+ time that it is invoked. If the performance counter is unavailable, or
+ if its frequency is not one of the two common 8254-compatible rates,
+ then ''TclpGetTime'' will return the result of ''ftime'' as it does in
+ Tcl 8.3.2.
+
+ * tclWinTime.c: Add the clock calibration procedure. The calibration
+ is somewhat complex; to save space, the reader is referred to the
+ reference implementation for the details of how the time base and
+ frequency are maintained.
+
+ * tclWinNotify.c: Modify ''Tcl_Sleep'' to test that the process has,
+ in fact, slept for the requisite time by calling ''TclpGetTime'' and
+ comparing with the desired time. Otherwise, roundoff errors may cause
+ the process to awaken early.
+
+ * tclWinTest.c: Add a ''testwinclock'' command. This command returns a
+ four element list comprising the seconds and microseconds portions of
+ the system clock and the seconds and microseconds portions of the Tcl
+ clock.
+
+ * winTime.test: Add to the test suite a test that makes sure that the
+ Tcl clock stays within 1.1 ms of the system clock over the duration of
+ the test.
+
+2000-11-21 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
+
+ * doc/global.n:
+ * doc/upvar.n:
+ * doc/variable.n: Improved documentation to mention that variables so
+ created are listed in [info locals] and added a few more cross-links
+ between these commands. [Bug 119387]
+
+2000-11-17 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
+
+ * tests/safe.test: (safe-4.3):
+ * generic/tclVar.c (TclLookupVar): Changed again. Now passes all the
+ tests, though one needed modifying since it required the wrong answer.
+ (Why on earth do we have inline modification of argument strings? This
+ sort of thing is horrendous to debug and doesn't work well in a
+ multithreaded environment!) [Bug 119192]
+
+ * tests/var.test: (var-1.19) If my attempts to fix the problem aren't
+ right yet, my attempts to describe it look pretty good to me...
+
+2000-11-16 Andreas Kupries <a.kupries@westend.com>
+
+ * win/tclWinPort.h (line 69): Changed reference to winsock2.h into
+ winsock.h. This was a leftover from a foray into using winsock version
+ 2 (History lesson from Scott Redman and Jeff Hobbs). This code was no
+ problem when compiling Tcl itself, but could trip extensions. [Bug
+ 122568]
+
+2000-11-15 Jeff Hobbs <jeff.hobbs@acm.org>
+
+ * unix/Makefile.in: removed bp.c references (hasn't existed in a long
+ time). Corrected 'make dist' to make dist with unversioned library
+ directories (same as out of cvs), so make install works correctly with
+ either source tree.
+
+2000-11-15 Jeff Hobbs <jeff.hobbs@acm.org>
+
+ * generic/tclVar.c (TclLookupVar): reverted fix below as it broke all
+ other array unset error reporting. Bug 119192 is still open.
+
+2000-11-15 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
+
+ * generic/tclVar.c (TclLookupVar): Changed references to part2 to use
+ elName instead in various error message generating spots. [Bug 119192]
+
+2000-11-03 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * win/.cvsignore: Removed 'configure' from the glob list now that it's
+ included.
+
+2000-11-03 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ 8.4a2 RELEASE
+
+ * unix/Makefile.in (install-libraries, dist):
+ * win/makefile.vc (install-libraries):
+ * win/Makefile.in (install-libraries): updated to install unversioned
+ library directories into versioned directories.
+
+ * tools/tcl.wse.in: updated for unversioning of library dirs
+
+ * unix/mkLinks: updated mkLinks with latest doc updates
+
+ * doc/Tcl_Main.3: added docs for Tcl_SetMainLoop
+
+ * generic/tclStubInit.c:
+ * generic/tclDecls.h:
+ * generic/tcl.decls: added Tcl_SetMainLoop proc that allows people to
+ set a main loop that will run for tclsh.
+ * generic/tcl.h: added Tcl_MainLoopProc typedef
+ * generic/tclMain.c (Tcl_SetMainLoop, StdinProc, Prompt): new
+ StdinProc and Prompt static procs and Tcl_SetMainLoop stubs proc. The
+ first two handle a fileevent based prompt (taken from tkMain.c).
+ Tcl_SetMainLoop enables the interactive setting of a main loop
+ procedure. This enables Tk to be a loadable package.
+
+2000-11-02 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * generic/tclEvent.c: tclLibraryPath Tcl_Obj didn't have a way to
+ share its data among threads. This caused Tcl_Init() to always fail in
+ threads. Added a way to pass the data around with a global char*.
+ [BUG: 5301]
+
+2000-11-02 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * unix/configure:
+ * unix/dltest/configure:
+ * win/configure:
+ * tools/configure: checked in configure scripts so people doing CVS
+ checkouts aren't required to have autoconf. Changes to configure.in in
+ the future will require the corresponding configure script to also be
+ re-autoconf'ed and checked in.
+
+ * win/makefile.vc:
+ * win/tcl.m4: makefile fixes for Win64 support
+
+ * generic/tclIndexObj.c (Tcl_GetIndexFromObjStruct): minor cast
+ changes.
+
+2000-11-01 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * unix/tcl.m4: removed use of -lbsd and -ldl for AIX-5.
+
+ * tests/subst.test: added tests for non-zero return code handling by
+ subst.
+ * generic/tclParse.c (Tcl_EvalEx): corrected handling of non-zero,
+ non-error return code cases for subst. [Bug 119829]
+
+ * generic/tclVar.c (TclVarTraceExists): Corrected excessive mem use
+ when info exists was called on a non-existent array element. [Bug
+ 119213, 119336]
+
+2000-10-30 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * win/configure.in:
+ * win/Makefile.in:
+ * win/makefile.vc:
+ * win/tcl.rc:
+ * win/tclsh.rc: Added logic to derive filenames better in the resource
+ scripts based on compile options.
+
+2000-10-30 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * unix/tclUnixInit.c: added default encoding map from "ja_JP.eucJP" to
+ "euc-jp". (takahashi)
+
+ * tests/clock.test: corrected clock-2.* test numbering
+
+ * unix/configure.in (SC_TCL_LINK_LIBS): removed code that was
+ commented out (it had been moved to tcl.m4's SC_TCL_LINK_LIBS
+ already).
+
+ * unix/tcl.m4: consolidated gettimeofday check for AIX.
+
+2000-10-27 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * unix/configure.in:
+ * unix/tcl.m4: added support for AIX-5.
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_NotifyChannel): removed #ifdef around code for
+ old channel structures, placed preserve/release around statePtr
+ * generic/tclIO.c (CloseChannel): the statePtr for a channel was not
+ being freed when the last channel in a stack was freed, causing a mem
+ leak.
+
+ * unix/tclUnixChan.c: updated channel types to strict
+ TCL_CHANNEL_VERSION_2 style to avoid compiler warnings. They work
+ either way, but this avoids compiler warnings (that worries people).
+
+2000-10-27 Jennifer Hom <jenn@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * library/tcltest1.0/tcltest.tcl: Removed a cd into the test directory
+ in runAllTests that screwed up the temporary directory setting,
+ effectively preventing users from running tests on multiple platforms
+ at the same time.
+
+2000-10-26 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * win/tclWinFile.c (TclpMatchFilesTypes): NULL was being set to "attr"
+ which was a DWORD. Changed NULL to zero because a 'void *' can't be
+ set to a DWORD to avoid the compiler warning.
+
+2000-10-24 Jennifer Hom <jenn@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * tests/all.tcl: Removed support for tcltest 1.0.
+
+ * tests/tcltest.test:
+ * library/tcltest1.0/tcltest.tcl:
+ * library/tcltest1.0/pkgIndex.tcl:
+ * docs/tcltest.n: Moved tcltest2 code so that it's the standard
+ version of tcltest. Removed all tcltest2 files (tests/tcltest2.test,
+ library/tcltest1.0/tcltest2.tcl, docs/tcltest2.n).
+
+2000-10-20 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * win/tclWinFile.c (TclpMatchFilesTypes): made the stat call only
+ occur when necessary (for 'glob' command). Significantly speeds up
+ glob command from 8.3. [BUG: 6216]
+
+2000-10-19 Jennifer Hom <jenn@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * library/tcltest1.0/tcltest2.tcl:
+ * tests/tcltest2
+ * doc/tcltest2.n: Code and documentation cleanup. Modified -verbose to
+ take list of keywords as well as string of letters. Removed Tcl
+ version information from tcltest. Removed tcltest::grep from tcltest
+ package. Added optional 3rd directory argument to
+ makeFile/makeDirectory and removeFile/removeDirectory.
+
+ * tests/basic.test: Changed references to tcltest::tclVersion to
+ hardcoded numbers.
+ * generic/tcl.h: Changed reference to tcltest2.tcl and tcltest.tcl in
+ comments to tests/basic.test.
+
+2000-10-06 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * win/tclWinChan.c: moved Win2K bug case test with GetStdHandle() from
+ TclpGetDefaultStdChannel into Tcl_MakeFileChannel to enable a more
+ general method in detecting invalid OS handles rather than just a
+ specific known case. [BUG: 5971]
+
+2000-10-06 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * tests/cmdAH.test: extra tests for 'file channels' that include
+ multiple interpreter tests and channel sharing
+ * generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_GetChannelNamesEx): corrected function (and
+ consequently 'file channels') to return channels that are actually
+ registered for this specific interp, rather than this thread.
+
+ * doc/CrtChannel.3: fixed spelling mistakes
+
+2000-09-29 Jennifer Hom <jenn@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * library/tcltest1.0/tcltest2.tcl:
+ * tests/tcltest2.test:
+ * doc/tcltest2.n: Modified the new form of the test command to accept
+ both attribute-value pairs and command line options. Updated the tests
+ and the documentation for this new format. Also changed the option
+ names for the test command.
+
+2000-09-29 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * win/tclWinSerial.c (SerialGetOptionProc): corrected reporting of
+ space parity on Windows (Eason) [Bug 6057].
+
+ * win/Makefile.in: commented use of TESTFLAGS
+ * unix/Makefile.in: added TESTFLAGS to test target to conform with
+ Windows makefile and TEA style.
+
+ * tests/stack.test: prevented possible crash on systems with low
+ default stacksize (Tru64, AIX) in infinite recursion test. A solution
+ to check remaining stack space in the core is best, but hard to do in
+ a cross-platform manner.
+
+ * generic/tclIOGT.c (FLUSH_DELAY): renamed DELAY define to FLUSH_DELAY
+ to avoid defn conflict using Tru64's cc.
+
+2000-09-28 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * tools/tcl.wse.in: added tclPlatDecls.h and tkPlatDecls.h to the
+ Windows .exe install.
+
+ * tests/fCmd.test (fCmd-6.20): corrected test to remove c:/tcl8975@
+ after creating it.
+
+ * tests/fileName.test: cleaned up the testing of glob patterns for
+ c:/globTest (Windows) to directly create/remove directory.
+
+2000-09-27 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * generic/tcl.decls:
+ * generic/tclIO.c: updated Tcl_IsChannelShared,
+ Tcl_IsChannelRegistered, Tcl_CutChannel, Tcl_SpliceChannel,
+ Tcl_IsChannelExisting, and Tcl_ClearChannelHandlers to conform to the
+ new stacked channel implementation. Their stub slots were also moved
+ to give preference to the new 8.3.2 stub functions. This will cause an
+ incompatibility with 8.4a1 only.
+ (StopCopy): fixed a bug introduced by a partial fix in 8.3.2 that
+ didn't set nonBlocking correctly when resetting the flags for the
+ write side. [Bug: 6261]
+
+ * doc/ChnlStack.3:
+ * doc/CrtChannel.3:
+ * generic/tcl.decls:
+ * generic/tcl.h:
+ * generic/tclDecls.h:

+ * win/tclWinPipe.c:
+ * win/tclWinSerial.c:
+ * win/tclWinSock.c: Up-port of changes made in 8.3.2 to 8.4a2 code
+ base. Most of these changes relate to the rewrite of the stacked
+ channel implementation, with a few config related fixes.
+
+ Following is an asynchronous include of the applicable ChangeLog
+ entries from 8.3.2.

+ ********************************************************
+ ** START OF ASYNCHRONOUS UP-PORT LOG (8.3.2 -> 8.4a2) **
+ ********************************************************
+
+2000-08-07 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * doc/ChnlStack.3:
+ * doc/CrtChannel.3: updated the docs to be aware of the
+ TCL_CHANNEL_VERSION_2 style of Tcl channels.
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_CreateChannel): added assertion to verify that
+ the new channel versioning will be binary compatible with older
+ channel drivers.
+
+2000-08-05 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * generic/tclIOGT.c (TclChannelTransform): fixed segfault that would
+ occur when transforming a channel with a proc that did not yet exist.
+ (Kupries)
+
+ * generic/tclTest.c (TestChannelCmd): added some lint init'ing of
+ statePtr and chan vars.
+
+2000-07-26 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ Merged core-8-3-1-io-rewrite back into core-8-3-1-branch. The
+ core-8-3-1-io-rewrite branch should now be considered defunct.
+
+ * generic/tclStubInit.c:
+ * generic/tclDecls.h:
+ * generic/tcl.decls:
+ * generic/tcl.h:
+ * generic/tclIO.c: moved the Tcl_Channel* macros from tcl.h to tclIO.c
+ and made them proper stubbed functions. These are: Tcl_ChannelName,
+ Tcl_ChannelVersion, Tcl_ChannelBlockModeProc, Tcl_ChannelCloseProc,
+ Tcl_ChannelClose2Proc, Tcl_ChannelInputProc, Tcl_ChannelOutputProc,
+ Tcl_ChannelSeekProc, Tcl_ChannelSetOptionProc,
+ Tcl_ChannelGetOptionProc, Tcl_ChannelWatchProc,
+ Tcl_ChannelGetHandleProc, Tcl_ChannelFlushProc, and
+ Tcl_ChannelHandlerProc. These should be used to access the
+ Tcl_ChannelType structure instead of direct pointer dereferencing.
+
+ * tests/iogt.test: added RCS string, marked tests 2.* to be unixOnly
+ due to underlying system differences.
+
+2000-07-25 Andreas Kupries <a.kupries@westend.com>
+
+ * tests/iogt.test: (line 866f) New tests iogt-6.[01], highlighting
+ buffering trouble when stacking and unstacking transformations.
+ iogt-6.0 is solved, see the changes below. iogt-6.1 remains, for now,
+ due to the perceived complexity of solutions.
+
+ * generic/tclIO.h: (line 139f) struct Channel, added a buffer queue,
+ to hold data pushed back when stacking a transformation.
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c:
+ (line 91f, line 7434f) New internal function 'CopyBuffer'. Derived
+ from 'CopyAndTranslateBuffer', with translation removed.
+ (line 1025f, line 1212f): Initialization of new queue.
+ (line 1164f, Tcl_StackChannel): Pushback of input queue.
+ (line 1293f, Tcl_UnstackChannel): Discard input and pushback.
+ (line 3748f, Tcl_ReadRaw): Modified to use data in the push back area
+ before going to the driver. Uses 'CopyBuffer', s.a.
+ (line 4702f, GetInput): Modified to use data in the push back area
+ before going to the driver.
+ (line 4867f, Tcl_Seek): Modified to take pushback of the topmost
+ channel in a stack into account.
+ (line 5620f, Tcl_InputBuffered): See above. Added
+ 'Tcl_ChannelBuffered'. Analog to 'Tcl_InputBuffered' but for the
+ buffer area in the channel.
+
+ * generic/tcl.decls: New public API 'Tcl_ChannelBuffered'. S.a.
+
+2000-07-17 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * unix/Makefile.in:
+ * win/Makefile.in:
+ * win/makefile.vc: added tclIOGT.c to objects list to compile.
+
+ * generic/tclStubInit.c:
+ * generic/tclIntDecls.h:
+ * generic/tclInt.decls: commented out internal decls for
+ TclTestChannelCmd and TclTestChannelEventCmd as they were moved to
+ tclTest.c. Added new decls for TclChannelEventScriptInvoker and
+ TclChannelTransform.
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c (CloseChannel): stopped masking out of the
+ TCL_READABLE|TCL_WRITABLE bits from the state flags in CloseChannel,
+ instead adding extra intelligence to CheckChannelErrors with a new
+ CHANNEL_RAW_MODE bit for special behavior when called from Raw channel
+ APIs.
+
+2000-07-13 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c (StackSetBlockMode): moved set of chanPtr outside of
+ blockModeProc check to avoid infinite loop when blockModeProc was
+ NULL. Updated TransformSeekProc to not call Tcl_Seek directly
+ (Kupries).
+
+ * win/tclWinChan.c: updated fileChannelType to v2 channel struct
+ * win/tclWinConsole.c: updated consoleChannelType to v2 channel struct
+ * win/tclWinPipe.c: updated pipeChannelType to v2 channel struct
+ * win/tclWinSerial.c: updated serialChannelType to v2 channel struct
+ * win/tclWinSock.c: updated tcpChannelType to v2 channel struct
+
+2000-07-11 Brent Welch <welch@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * win/tclConfig.sh.in (TCL_LIBS): Cleaned up unix-specific autoconf
+ variables.
+
+2000-07-11 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * tests/iogt.test: made tests [345].0 not run by default as they were
+ failing in the new design, but I'm not convinced that the returned
+ result isn't correct.
+
+ * generic/tclDecls.h:
+ * generic/tclStubInit.c:
+ * generic/tcl.decls: added Tcl_GetTopChannel C API that returns the
+ current top channel of a channel stack. Tcl_GetChannel was changed
+ earlier to return the bottommost channel of a stack because that is
+ the one that is guaranteed to stay around the longest, and this was
+ needed to compensate for certain operations that want to look at the
+ state of the main channel. Most channel APIs already compensate for
+ grabbing the top, so it shouldn't be needed often.
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_StackChannel, Tcl_UnstackChannel): Added
+ flushing of buffers (Kupries), removed use of DownChannel macro, added
+ Tcl_GetTopChannel public API to get to the top channel of the channel
+ stack (necessary for TLS). Rewrote Tcl_NotifyChannel for new channel
+ design (Kupries). Did some code cleanup in the transform code.
+ tclIO.c must still be broken into bits (separate out test code and
+ giot code, create tclIO.h).
+
+2000-07-10 Andreas Kupries <a.kupries@westend.com>
+
+ * tests/iogt.test: Reverted some earlier changes as a fix by Jeff
+ revived the original and correct behaviour. IOW, the tests showed a
+ genuine error and I didn't see it :(.
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_Read|Write_Raw): Changed to directly use the
+ drivers and not DoRead|DoWrite. The latter use the buffering system,
+ encoding and eol-translation and this wreaks havoc with the data going
+ through the transformations. Both procedures use CheckForchannelErrors
+ and let it believe that there is no background copy in progress or
+ else stacked channels could not be used for that.
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c (TclCopyChannel, CopyData): Moved access to the
+ topmost channel from the first to the second procedure to make the
+ decision about that at the last possible time (Callbacks can change
+ the stacking).
+
+ test suite: failures of iogt-[345].0
+
+2000-07-06 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * tests/iogt.test: new tests for stacked channel stuff based off new
+ 'testchannel transform|unstack' code (Kupries IOGT extension).
+ * generic/tcl.decls:
+ * generic/tcl.h:
+ * generic/tclDecls.h:
+ * generic/tclStubsInit.c:
+ * generic/tclIO.c: complete rewrite of Tcl Channel code for stacked
+ channels. Channels are now designed to work in a more stacked fashion
+ with a shared ChannelState data structure.
+
+2000-06-02 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c (CloseChannel): removed the &ing out of
+ (TCL_READABLE|TCL_WRITABLE) from the flags, as CloseChannel does this
+ on the next pass through for the top channel, and it appeared to be
+ causing hangs by not allowing the final flush.
+
+2000-06-01 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c (CloseChannel): Rewrote CloseChannel code to unstack
+ a channel during the close process. Fixed a refcount bug in
+ Tcl_UnstackChannel. [Bug: 5623]
+ (CloseChannel): further extended CloseChannel in the stacked case to
+ effect certain operations on the next channel that would have been
+ done in Tcl_Close. Also added CHANNEL_CLOSED and removed
+ (TCL_READABLE|TCL_WRITABLE) bits from chanPtr->flags. Changed final
+ reset of the WatchProc to check the chanDownPtr's (next) interestMask.

+2000-09-20 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * tests/socket.test: removed doTestsWithRemoteServer constraint from
+ socket-12.*. It requires 'exec', not a remote server. Cleaned up some
+ coding errors.
+
+2000-09-20 Jennifer Hom <jenn@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * library/tcltest1.0/pkgIndex.tcl: Updated to load tcltest 2.0.
+ * library/tcltest1.0/tcltest2.tcl: New version of tcltest.
+ Cleanup of command line parsing: allows users to specify command line
+ arguments through an environment variable named TCLTEST_OPTIONS [RFE:
+ 3748], does not respond to incorrect arguments, and forces usage of
+ entire flag name when using command line arguments. Defines accessor
+ procs for all tcltest variables. Allows users to use 'return' in test
+ scripts. Allow users to specify whether test files should be sourced
+ or run in a separate process. 'all.tcl' code moved to tcltest package.
+ 'test' proc modified to use attribute-value pairs. Allow users to
+ specify what return codes, output, and errors can be compared and
+ whether these values should be compared using regexp, glob, or exact
+ matching. makeDirectory & removeDirectory now operate with respect to
+ temporaryDirectory [Bug: 6001]. Test results from tests run in slave
+ interpreters are now included in test totals [Bug: 1493]. Test files
+ that return error values are now reported.
+ * tests/all.tcl: Added code to check for the tcltest version loaded;
+ modified to figure out which tests to run based on the tcltest version
+ loaded.
+ * tests/tcltest.test: Modified to explicitly load version 1.0 of
+ tcltest.
+ * tests/tcltest2.test: New test suite for tcltest; includes all of the
+ old tests plus new ones reflecting changes made for version 2.0.
+ * tests/cmdAH.test: Added singleTestInterp constraint to cmdAH-31.2;
+ this test does not run if tests aren't sourced into a single
+ interpreter.
+ * tests/socket.test: Fixed two tests that were referencing variables
+ outside of scope.
+
+ * tools/tcl.wse.in: Added code to install tcltest2.tcl.
+
+ * doc/tcltest2.n: New documentation for tcltest version 2.0. Removes
+ documentation for tcltest namespace variables. Adds documentation for
+ new tcltest procs.
+
+ * unix/mkLinks: Added code to link to tcltest2.n.
+
+ * generic/tcl.h: Added comment to modify tcltest2.tcl as well as
+ tcltest.tcl for version changes.
+
+2000-09-19 Eric Melski <ericm@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_RegexpObjCmd): When using -all, all attempts
+ after the first to match the regexp against the string should include
+ the TCL_REG_NOTBOL flag, to avoid erroneously matching ^ in the middle
+ of the string. Added code to set this flag after the first pass
+ through the matching loop. [Bug: 6284].
+
+2000-09-19 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * doc/Eval.3: Added a note about the script argument to Tcl_Eval()
+ should be in UTF-8 or risk implied conversion errors when possible
+ combinations of upper ascii can be valid UTF-8 special codes.
+
+2000-09-17 Eric Melski <ericm@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * tests/cmdIL.test: Added a test for fix for [Bug: 6212].
+
+ * generic/tclCmdIL.c (Tcl_LsortObjCmd): Applied patch from [Bug:
+ 6212], which corrected an error in the handling of the -index option.
+
+2000-09-14 Eric Melski <ericm@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * doc/Alloc.3: Added entries for Tcl_AttemptAlloc, Tcl_AttempRealloc.
+
+ * doc/StringObj.3: Added entry for Tcl_AttemptSetObjLength.
+
+ * generic/tclDecls.h:
+ * generic/tclStubInit.c: Regen'ed stubs files from new tcl.decls.
+
+ * generic/tcl.decls: Added stubs for the Tcl_Attempt* memory
+ allocators and for Tcl_AttemptSetObjLength.
+
+ * generic/tcl.h: Added #define's for attemptckalloc, attemptckrealloc,
+ which map to the Tcl_Attempt* memory allocators.
+
+ * generic/tclCkalloc.c: Added non-panic'ing versions of Tcl_Alloc,
+ Tcl_Realloc, etc.; these are called Tcl_AttemptAlloc,
+ Tcl_AttemptRealloc, etc. These are used by Tcl_AttemptSetObjLength and
+ the string obj append functions.
+
+ * generic/tclStringObj.c: Modified string growth algorithm to use
+ doubling algorithm as long as possible, and only fall back when that
+ fails. Added Tcl_AttemptSetObjLength, and modified
+ AppendUnicodeToUnicodeRep, AppendUtfToUtfRep, and
+ Tcl_AppendStringsToObjVA to support this.
+
+2000-09-07 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * win/.cvsignore: changed the glob patterns a bit to exclude VC++
+ project conversion backups.
+
+ * win/tclWinPipe.c: Stage-1 bug fix for TR#2460 "exec leaks memory".
+ Added more logic around the close-down of the pipe reader thread so as
+ to avoid, at all cost, a TerminateThread. Most cases with exec are
+ fixed, but I don't consider 2460 done yet. Closing down the read side
+ of a pipe before the child process, doesn't really fit the windows
+ model. [BUG: 2460]
+
+2000-09-07 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * doc/trace.n: minor doc cleanup
+
+2000-09-06 André Pönitz <poenitz@htwm.de>

+ * doc/*.n: added or changed "SEE ALSO:" section
+
+2000-09-06 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * win/tclWinLoad.c (TclpLoadFile): added special message for
+ ERROR_PROC_NOT_FOUND exception in loading a dll.
+ * win/tclWinError.c: changed ERROR_PROC_NOT_FOUND to map from ESRCH
+ (POSIX: no such process) to EINVAL because there is no good mapping
+ for "procedure not found".
+
+ * README:

+ * win/configure.in: updated patchlevel to 8.4a2
+
+ * unix/tclUnixPipe.c (TclpCreateProcess): Removed WNOHANG from
+ Tcl_WaitPid call in error case of process creation on Unix, as it
+ would lead to defunct processes. [Bug: 6148]
+
+ * tests/string.test: extended string repeat tests
+ * generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_StringObjCmd): changed STR_REPEAT to
+ preallocate the full space of the final string, avoided repeated
+ appends.
+
+ * doc/source.n:
+ * doc/Eval.3: added extra note about how to safe use ^Z in code, as it
+ is now a cross-platform (was just Windows) EOF char.
+
+2000-09-05 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * generic/tclHash.c: fixed pedantic warning of incorrectly placed
+ #endif
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): INST_STR_INDEX fixed
+ pedantic cast warning.
+ Corrected support for building with -DTCL_COMPILE_STATS.
+ Added efficiency check of object equality.
+
+2000-08-29 Eric Melski <ericm@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * generic/tclStringObj.c: Applied patch from Gerhard Hintermayer to
+ provide a more conservative string growth algorithm for strings larger
+ than one megabyte; this allows more efficient use of memory for very
+ large strings.
+
+2000-08-25 Eric Melski <ericm@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * tests/trace.test: Extended array tracing tests.
+
+ * doc/trace.n: Clarified information about when array traces will be
+ fired.
+
+ * generic/tclVar.c (Tcl_ArrayObjCmd): Corrected call to CallTraces
+ (for TCL_TRACE_ARRAY) to only be called when the variable is either an
+ array or is undefined, to ensure that array traces do not fire for
+ scalar variables.
+
+2000-08-24 Eric Melski <ericm@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * doc/man.macros: Tweaked tab settings for .SO (Standard Options)
+ sections, based on suggestion from Peter Spjuth.
+
+2000-08-24 Mo DeJong <mdejong@redhat.com>
+
+ * unix/README: Update to account for removal of --enable-gcc.
+ * unix/configure.in:

+ * win/README: Add note about building with Cygwin.
+ * win/configure.in:
+ * win/tcl.m4 (SC_ENABLE_GCC): Remove --enable-gcc option. Remove quick
+ hack that provided cross compile support for windows builds.
+
+2000-08-24 Eric Melski <ericm@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ Overall change: Added support for command rename/delete traces and new
+ trace syntax, from patch from Vince Darley. Added support for array
+ traces for variables. [RFE: 5048, 5967].
+
+ * doc/trace.n: Updated documentation for new syntax; flagged old
+ syntax as deprecated; added documentation for command rename/delete
+ traces and variable array traces.
+
+ * tests/trace.test: Updated tests for new trace syntax; new tests for
+ command rename/delete traces; new tests for array traces.
+
+ * generic/tclVar.c: Support for new trace syntax; support for
+ TCL_TRACE_ARRAY.
+
+ * generic/tclStubInit.c:
+ * generic/tclDecls.h:
+ * generic/tcl.decls: Stub functions for command rename/delete traces.
+
+ * generic/tcl.h:
+ * generic/tclInt.h:
+ * generic/tclBasic.c: Support for command traces.
+
+ * generic/tclCmdMZ.c (TclTraceVariableObjCmd): Patched to support new
+ [trace] syntax:
+ trace {add|remove|list} {variable|command} name ops command
+ Added support for command traces (rename, delete operations).
+ Added support for TCL_TRACE_ARRAY at Tcl level (array operation for
+ variable traces).
+
+2000-08-20 Eric Melski <ericm@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * generic/tclVar.c: Added check for non-arrays for [array statistics]
+ command (patch from Mark Patton).
+
+2000-08-19 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * generic/tclPlatDecls.h: without a previous '#include <windows.h>',
+ tclPlatDecls.h can't be parsed due to a missing definition of TCHAR.
+ Added a check to include it when not defined.
+
+ ***POSSIBLE OBSCURE BUG*** could be caused when the compile flags for
+ the core happen to be different than a project who uses these publics
+ regarding -D_MBCS and -D_UNICODE. This added check might have to be
+ revisited later with a better understanding of the reprocusions. I
+ think TCHAR should be replaced with it's expansion.
+
+2000-08-18 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * win/.cvsignore (added): provides a cleaner build environment with
+ graphical CVS clients.
+
+2000-08-15 Eric Melski <ericm@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * library/tcltest1.0/tcltest.tcl: Set debug level in

+ tcltest::saveState [Bug: 4505].
+
+2000-08-14 Eric Melski <ericm@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * win/makefile.vc:
+ * win/Makefile.in:
+ * unix/Makefile.in: Added tclPlatDecls.h to the list of installed
+ headers, for more complete stubs support. [Bug: 5241].
+
+ * generic/tcl.h: Added #include "tclPlatDecls.h" to get
+ platform-specific stubs declarations (Tcl_WinTCharToUtf, etc)
+ [Bug: 5241].
+
+ * README: Updated link for instructions on compiling Tcl from sources
+ to point to correct location (http://dev.scriptics.com/doc/... instead

+
+2000-08-11 Eric Melski <ericm@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * generic/tclEnv.c (TclUnsetEnv): Changed declaration of length

+
+2000-08-10 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * generic/tclObj.c: r1.15 accidentally changed a global mutex name

+
+2000-08-07 Eric Melski <ericm@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * tests/indexObj.test: Added tests using the [testwrongnumargs]

+
+2000-07-27 Mo DeJong <mdejong@redhat.com>
+
+ * win/configure.in: TCL_STUB_LIB_FLAG should not include ${TCL_DBGX}

+ Removed older Win hacks that would end-up waking the wrong notifier in
+ the presence of a threaded build. All tests pass as before. New test
+ cases will be added soon for the new behavior. [BUG: 5791]
+
+2000-07-25 Eric Melski <ericm@ajubasolutions.com>
+
+ * generic/tclVar.c (CallTraces): Added check for VAR_TRACE_ACTIVE on

+ array, to conform with normal variable traces and the documentation,
+ which states that while executing a trace, other traces on that
+ variable are disabled. [Bug: 6049].
+
+ * win/tclWinPipe.c (BuildCommandLine): Added Tcl_DStringFree call to

+
+ * library/msgcat1.0/msgcat.tcl:

+
+ * tests/http.test
+ * doc/http.n
+ * library/http2.3/http.tcl: Fixed bug 5741, where unsuccessful geturl
+ calls sometimes leaked memory and resources (sockets). Also, switched
+ around some of the logic so that http::wait never throws an exception.
+ This is because in an asynchronous geturl, the command callback will
+ probably end up doing all the error handling anyway, and in an
+ asynchronous situation, the user expects to check the state when the
+ transaction completes, as opposed to being thrown an exception. For
+ the http package, this menas the user can check http::status for
+ "error" and http::error for the error message after doing the
+ http::wait.

+
+ Overall changes:
+ (1) Implementation of joinable threads for all platforms.
+ (2) Additional API's for channels. Required to allow the thread
+ extension to move channels between threads.
+
+ * generic/tcl.decls (lines 1360f): Added Tcl_JoinThread,
+ Tcl_IsChannelShared, Tcl_IsChannelRegistered, Tcl_CutChannel,
+ Tcl_SpliceChannel, Tcl_IsChannelExisting and Tcl_ClearChannelHandlers
+ (slots 394 to 400).
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c: Implemented Tcl_IsChannelRegistered,
+ Tcl_IsChannelShared, Tcl_CutChannel, Tcl_SpliceChannel,
+ Tcl_IsChannelExisting and Tcl_ClearChannelHandlers. Tcl_CutChannel
+ uses code from CloseChannel. Replaced this code by a call to
+ Tcl_CutChannel. Replaced several code fragments adding channels to
+ the channel list with calls to Tcl_SpliceChannel. Removed now unused
+ variables from CloseChannel and Tcl_UnstackChannel.
+ Tcl_ClearChannelHandlers uses code from Tcl_Close. Replaced this code
+ by a call to Tcl_ClearChannelHandlers. Removed now unused variables
+ from Tcl_Close. Added the subcommands 'cut', 'forgetch', 'splice' and
+ 'isshared' to the test code (TclTestChannelCmd).
+
+ * unix/tclUnixThread.c: Implemented Tcl_JoinThread using the
+ pthread-functionality.
+
+ * win/tclWinThrd.c: Fixed several small typos in comments.
+ Implemented Tcl_JoinThread using a platform independent emulation
+ layer (see generic/tclThreadJoin.c below). Added 'joinLock' to
+ serialize Tcl_CreateThread and TclpExitThread to prevent a race for
+ joinable threads.
+
+ * mac/tclMacThrd.c: Implemented Tcl_JoinThread using a platform
+ independent emulation layer (see generic/tclThreadJoin.c below). Due
+ to the cooperative nature of threading on this platform the race
+ mentioned above is not present.
+
+ * generic/tclThreadJoin.c: New file. Contains a platform independent
+ emulation layer helping in the implementation of joinable threads for
+ the win and mac platforms.
+
+ * generic/tclInt.h: Added declarations for TclJoinThread,
+ TclRememberJoinableThread and TclSignalExitThread. These procedures
+ define the API of the emulation layer for joinable threads (see
+ generic/tclThreadJoin.c above).
+
+ * win/Makefile.in:
+ * win/makefile.vc: Added generic/tclTheadJoin.o to the rules.
+
+ * mac/: I don't know to which file generic/tclTheadJoin.o has to be
+ added to so that it compiles. Sorry.
+
+ * unix/tclUnixChan.c: #ifdef'd the thread-local list of file channels
+ as it prevents us from transfering channels. To restore this we may
+ need an extended interface to drivers in the future. Target:
+ 9.0. Found while testing the new transfer of channels. The information
+ in this list for a channel was left behind and then crashed the system
+ during finalization.
+
+ * generic/tclThreadTest.c: Added -joinable flag to 'testthread
+ create'. Added subcommand 'testthread join'.
+
+ * doc/CrtChannel.3: Added documentation for Tcl_IsChannelRegistered,
+ Tcl_IsChannelShared, Tcl_CutChannel, Tcl_SpliceChannel,
+ Tcl_IsChannelExisting and Tcl_ClearChannelHandlers.
+
+ * doc/Thread.3: Added documentation for Tcl_JoinThread.

+
+ * doc/DumpActiveMemory.3: Man page for Tcl_DumpActiveMemory,

+
+ * generic/tclCkalloc.c: Fixed some function headers.
+
+ * unix/mkLinks: Regen'd with new mkLinks.tcl.
+
+ * unix/mkLinks.tcl: Fixed indentation, made link setup more
+ intelligent (only do one existance test per man page, instead of one
+ per function).
+
+ * doc/library.n: Fixed .SH NAME macro to include each function
+ documented on the page, so that mkLinks will know about the functions
+ listed there, and so that the Windows help file index will get set up
+ correctly [Bug: 1898, 5273].

+
+ These changes make some error handling marginally better for Mac
+ sockets. It is still somewhat flakey, however.
+
+ * mac/tclMacSock.c (TcpClose): Add timeouts to the close - these don't
+ seem to be honored, however. Use a separate PB for the release, since
+ an async connect socket will still be using the original buffer. Make
+ sure TCPRelease returns noErr before freeing the recvBuff. If the call
+ returns an error, then the buffer is not right.
+ * mac/tclMacSock.c (CreateSocket): Add timeouts to the async create.
+ These don't seem to trigger, however. Sigh...
+ * mac/tclMacSock.c (WaitForSocketEvent): If an TCP_ASYNC_CONNECT
+ socket errors out, then return EWOULDBLOCK & error out.
+ * mac/tclMacSock.c (NotifyRoutine): Added a NotifyRoutine for
+ experimenting with MacTCP.

+2000-04-21 Sandeep Tamhankar <sandeep@scriptics.com>
+
+ * library/http2.1/http.tcl: Fixed a newly introduced bug where if
+ there's a -command callback and something goes wrong, geturl threw an
+ exception, called the callback, and unset the token. I changed it so
+ that it will not call the callback when throwing an exception (so the
+ caller only finds out about a given error from one place). Also,
+ fixed http::ncode so that it actually gives you back the http return
+ code (i.e. 200, 404, etc.) instead of the first digit of the version
+ of HTTP being used (i.e. 1).
+
+2000-04-21 Brent Welch <welch@scriptics.com>

+
+ * doc/regexp.n: doc clarification [Bug: 5037]
+ * doc/update.n: typo fix [Bug: 4996]
+
+ * unix/tcl.m4 (SC_ENABLE_THREADS): enhanced the detection of
+ pthread_mutex_init [Bug: 4359] and (SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS) added
+ --enable-64bit-vis switch for Sparc VIS compilation [Bug: 4995]
+
+2000-04-12 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * doc/dde.n: corrected dde poke docs. [Bug: 4991]
+
+2000-04-11 Eric Melski <ericm@scriptics.com>
+
+ * win/tclWinPipe.c: Added "CONST" keyword to declaration of char
+ *native in TclpCreateTempFile, to supress compiler warnings.
+
+2000-04-10 Brent Welch <welch@scriptics.com>
+
+ * generic/tcl.h: Fixed Tcl_CreateThread declaration.
+ * library/tcltest1.0/tcltest.tcl: Fixed the "mainThread"

+
+2000-04-10 Eric Melski <ericm@scriptics.com>
+
+ * win/tclWinPipe.c (TclpCreateTempFile): Added conversion of contents
+ string from UTF to native encoding [Bug: 4030].
+
+ * tests/regexp.test: Added tests for infinite looping in [regexp
+ -all].
+
+ * generic/tclCmdMZ.c: Fixed infinite loop bug with [regexp -all]
+ [Bug: 4981].
+
+ * tests/*.test: Changed all occurrences of "namespace import
+ ::tcltest" to "namespace import -force ::tcltest" [Bug: 3948].
+
+2000-04-09 Brent Welch <welch@scriptics.com>
+
+ * lib/httpd2.1/http.tcl: Worked on the "server closes before reading
+ post data" case, which unfortunately causes different error cases on
+ Solaris, which can read the reply, and Linux and Windows, which cannot
+ read anything. This is all in the loop-back case - client and server
+ on the same host. Also unified the error handling so the "ioerror"
+ status goes away and errors are reflected in a more uniform way.
+ Updated the man page to document the behavior.
+
+2000-04-09 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * tests/reg.test (matchexpected): corrected tests to use tcltest
+ constraint types to skip certain tests.
+
+ * generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_SetCommandInfo): comment fix
+
+ * unix/tclUnixThrd.c (Tcl_CreateThread): moved TCL_THREADS ifdef
+ inside of func as it is declared for non-threads builds as well. In
+ the non-threads case, it always returns TCL_ERROR (couldn't create
+ thread).
+
+2000-04-08 Andreas Kupries <a.kupries@westend.com>
+
+ * Overall change: Definition of a public API for the creation of
+ new threads.
+
+ * generic/tclInt.h (line 1802f): Removed the definition of
+ 'TclpThreadCreate'. (line 793f) Removed the definition of
+ 'Tcl_ThreadCreateProc'.
+
+ * generic/tcl.h (line 388f): Readded the definition of
+ 'Tcl_ThreadCreateProc'. Added Win32 stuff send in by David Graveraux
+ <davygrvy@bigfoot.com> to that too (__stdcall, ...). Added macros for
+ the default stacksize and allowed flags.
+
+ * generic/tcl.decls (line 1356f): Added definition of
+ 'Tcl_CreateThread', slot 393 of the stub table. Two new arguments in
+ the public API, for stacksize and flags.
+
+ * win/tclWinThrd.c:
+ * mac/tclMacThrd.c: Renamed TclpThreadCreate to Tcl_CreateThread,
+ added handling of the stacksize. Flags are currently ignored.
+
+ * unix/tclUnixThrd.c: See above, but handles joinable flag. Ignores
+ the specified stacksize if the macro HAVE_PTHREAD_ATTR_SETSTACKSIZE is
+ not defined.
+
+ * generic/tclThreadTest.c (line 363): See below.
+
+ * unix/tclUnixNotfy.c (line 210): Adapted to the changes above. Uses
+ default stacksize and no flags now.
+
+ * unic/tcl.m4 (line 382f): Added a check for
+ 'pthread_attr_setstacksize' to detect platforms not implementing this
+ feature of pthreads. If it is implemented, configure will define the
+ macro HAVE_PTHREAD_ATTR_SETSTACKSIZE (See unix/tclUnixThrd.c too).
+
+ * doc/Thread.3: Added Tcl_CreateThread and its arguments to the list
+ of described functions. Removed stuff about not providing a public
+ C-API for thread-creation.
+
+2000-04-07 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * doc/binary.n: clarified docs on sign extension in binary scan [Bug:
+ 3466]
+
+ * library/tcltest1.0/tcltest.tcl (initConstraints): removed win32s
+ references (no longer supported)
+
+ * tests/fCmd.test: marked test 8.1 knownBug because it is dangerous on
+ poorly configured systems [Bug: 3881] and added 8.2 to keep essence of
+ 8.1 tested.
+
+2000-04-05 Andreas Kupries <a.kupries@westend.com>
+
+ * generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_UnstackChannel, line 1831): Forcing interest
+ mask to the correct value after an unstack and re-initialization of
+ the notifier via the watchProc. Without this the first fileevent after
+ an unstack will come through and be processed, but no more. [Bug: ??].
+
+2000-03-04 Brent Welch <welch@scriptics.com>
+
+ * {win,unix}/Makefile.in: added dependency of tclStubInit.c on
+ tcl.decls and tclInt.decls
+ * generic/tclThread.c: Tweak so this compiles w/out TCL_THREADS
+ * generic/{tcl.decls,tclStubInit.c}: Just touched the tcl.decls and
+ regenerated the tclStubInit.c file
+
+2000-03-29 Sandeep Tamhankar <sandeep@scriptics.com>
+
+ * library/http2.1/http.tcl: For the -querychannel option, fconfigure
+ the socket to be binary so that we don't translate anything while
+ reading the data. This is because we determine the content length of
+ the data on the channel by using seek (to the end of the file) and
+ tell on the file handle, and we need the content-length to match the
+ amount of data actually sent, and translation can affect the number of
+ bytes posted.
+
+2000-04-03 Andreas Kupries <a.kupries@westend.com>
+
+ * Overall change: Definition of public API's for the finalization of
+ conditions and mutexes. [Bug: 4199].
+
+ * generic/tclInt.h: Removed definitions of TclFinalizeMutex and
+ TclFinalizeCondition.
+
+ * generic/tcl.decls: Added declarations of Tcl_MutexFinalize and
+ Tcl_ConditionFinalize.
+
+ * generic/tclThread.c: Renamed TclFinalizeMutex to Tcl_MutexFinalize.
+ Renamed TclFinalizeCondition to Tcl_ConditionFinalize.
+
+ * generic/tclNotify.c: Changed usage of TclFinalizeMutex to
+ Tcl_MutexFinalize.
+
+ * unix/tclUnixNotfy.c:
+ * generic/tclThreadTest.c: Changed usages of TclFinalizeCondition to
+ Tcl_ConditionFinalize.
+
+ * generic/tcl.h: Added empty macros for Tcl_MutexFinalize and
+ Tcl_ConditionFinalize, to be used when the core is compiled without
+ threads.
+
+ * doc/Thread.3: Added description the new API's.
+
+2000-04-03 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>

+ prevent itcl info override crash [Bug: 4064]
+
+ * tests/foreach.test:
+ * tests/namespace.test:

+
+ * tools/man2help2.tcl: fixed winhelp cross-linking error [Bug: 4156]
+ improved translation to winhelp [Bug: 3679]
+
+ * unix/Makefile.in (MAN_INSTALL_DIR): patch to accept --mandir
+ correctly [Bug: 4085]
+
+ * unix/dltest/pkg[a-e].c: Cleaned up test packages [Bug: 2293]
+
+2000-04-03 Eric Melski <ericm@scriptics.com>
+
+ * unix/tclUnixFCmd.c (SetGroupAttribute):
+ * unix/tclUnixFCmd.c (SetOwnerAttribute): Added (uid_t) and (gid_t)
+ casts to avoid compiler warnings.
+
+2000-03-31 Eric Melski <ericm@scriptics.com>
+
+ * generic/tclGet.c (Tcl_GetDouble): Added additional conditions to
+ error test (previously only errno was checked, but the return value of
+ strtod() should be checked as well). [Bug: 4118]
+
+ * tests/exec.test: Added test for proper conversion of UTF data when
+ used with "<< $dataWithUTF" on exec's.
+
+ * unix/tclUnixPipe.c (TclpCreateTempFile): Added
+ Tcl_UtfToExternalDString call, so that if there is UTF content in the
+ string it will be properly converted to the system encoding before
+ being written [Bug: 4030].
+ (TclpCreateTempFile): Added a check on the return value of tmpnam;
+ some systems (Linux, for example) will start to return NULL after
+ tmpnam has been called TMP_MAX times; not checking for this can have
+ bad results (overwriting temp files, core dumps, etc.)
+
+2000-03-30 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_DeleteCommandFromToken): Added comments
+ noting the need to pair ckalloc with ckfree. [Bug: 4262]
+
+ * generic/tclInt.decls:
+ * generic/tclIntPlatDecls.h:
+ * generic/tclStubInit.c:
+ * win/tclWin32Dll.c: removed TclWinSynchSpawn (vestige of Win32s
+ support).
+
+ * win/tclWinReg.c: made use of TclWinGetPlatformId instead of getting
+ info again
+
+ * win/tclWinPort.h:
+ * win/Makefile.in:
+ * win/configure.in:
+ * win/tcl.m4: Added support for gcc/mingw on Windows [Bug: 4234]
+
+2000-03-29 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * generic/tclCompile.c (TclCleanupByteCode): made ByteCode cleanup
+ more aware of TCL_BYTECODE_PRECOMPILED flagged structs (gen'd by
+ tbcload), to correctly clean them up.
+
+ * generic/tclClock.c (FormatClock): moved check for empty format
+ earlier, commented 0 result return value
+
+2000-03-29 Sandeep Tamhankar <sandeep@scriptics.com>
+
+ * library/http2.1/http.tcl: Removed an unnecessary fileevent statement
+ from the error processing part of the Write method. Also, fixed two
+ potential memory leaks in wait and reset, in which the state array
+ wasn't being unset before throwing an exception. Prior to this
+ version, Brent checked in a fix to catch a fileevent statement that
+ was sometimes causing a stack trace when geturl was called with
+ -timeout. I believe Brent's fix is necessary because TLS closes bad
+ sockets for secure connections, and the fileevent was trying to act on
+ a socket that no longer existed.
+
+2000-03-27 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * tests/httpd: removed unnecessary 'puts stderr "Post Dispatch"'
+
+ * tests/namespace.test:
+ * generic/tclNamesp.c (Tcl_Export): added a uniq'ing test to the
+ export list so only one instance of each export pattern would exist in
+ the list.
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): optimized case for the
+ empty string in ==/!= comparisons
+
+2000-03-27 Eric Melski <ericm@scriptics.com>
+
+ * unix/tclUnixChan.c: Added (off_t) type casts in lseek() call [Bug:
+ 4409].
+
+ * unix/tclLoadAout.c:
+ * unix/tclUnixPipe.c: Added (off_t) type casts in lseek() calls [Bug:
+ 4410].
+
+2000-03-22 Sandeep Tamhankar <sandeep@scriptics.com>
+
+ * library/http2.1/http.tcl: Fixed a bug where string query data that
+ was bigger than queryblocksize would get duplicate characters at block
+ boundaries.
+
+2000-03-22 Sandeep Tamhankar <sandeep@scriptics.com>
+
+ * library/http2.1/http.tcl: Fixed bug 4463, where we were getting a
+ stack trace if we tried to publish a project to a good host but a port
+ where there was no server listening. It turned out the problem was a
+ stray fileevent that needed to be cleared. Also, fixed a bug where
+ http::code could stack trace if called on a bad token (one which
+ didn't represent a successful geturl) by adding an http element to the
+ state array in geturl.
+
+2000-03-21 Eric Melski <ericm@scriptics.com>
+
+ * tests/clock.test: Modified some tests that were not robust with
+ respect to the time zone in which they were run and were thus failing.
+
+ * doc/clock.n: Clarified meaning of -gmt with respect to -base when
+ used with [clock scan] (-gmt does not affect the interpretation of
+ -base).
+
+2000-03-19 Sandeep Tamhankar <sandeep@scriptics.com>
+
+ * library/http2.1/http.tcl: geturl used to throw an exception when the
+ connection failed; I accidentally returned a token with the error
+ info, breaking backwards compatibility. I changed it back to throwing
+ an exception, but unsetting the state array first (thus still
+ eliminating the original memory leak problem).
+
+2000-03-19 Sandeep Tamhankar <sandeep@scriptics.com>
+
+ * library/http2.1/http.tcl: Added -querychannel option and altered
+ some of Brent's modifications to allow asynchronous posts (via
+ -command). Also modified -queryprogress so that it calls the query
+ callback as <callback> <token> <total size> <current size> to be
+ consistent with -progress. Added -queryblocksize option with default
+ 8192 bytes for post blocksize. Fixed a bunch of potential memory leaks
+ for the case when geturl receives bad args or can't open a socket,
+ etc. Overall, the package really rocks now.
+
+ * doc/http.n: Added -queryblocksize, -querychannel, and
+ -queryprogress. Also, changed the description of -blocksize, which
+ states that the -progress callback will be called for each block, to
+ now qualify that with an "if -progress is specified".
+
+ * tests/http.test: Added a querychannel test for synchronous and
+ asynchronous posts, altered the queryprogress test such that the
+ callback conforms to the -progress format. Also, had to use the
+ -queryblocksize option to do the post 16K at a time to match Brent's
+ expected results (and to test that -queryblocksize works).
+
+2000-03-15 Brent Welch <welch@scriptics.com>
+
+ * library/http2.1/http.tcl: Added -queryprogress callback to
+ http::geturl and also changed it so that writing the post data is
+ event driven if the queryprogress callback or a timeout is given.
+ This allows a timeout to occur when writing lots of post data. The
+ queryprogress callback is called after each block of query data is
+ posted. It has the same signature as the -progress callback.
+
+2000-03-06 Eric Melski <ericm@scriptics.com>
+
+ * library/package.tcl: Applied patch from Bug: 2570; rather than
+ setting geometry of slave interp to 0x0 when Tk was loaded, it now
+ does "wm withdraw .". Both remove the main window from the display,
+ but the former caused some internal structures to get initialized to
+ zero, which caused crashes with some extensions.
+
+2000-03-02 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * library/package.tcl (tclPkgUnknown): extended to allow recognizes
+ changes in the auto_path while sourcing in other pkgIndex.tcl files
+
+ * doc/FindExec.3: fixed doc for declaration of Tcl_FindExecutable
+ [Bug: 4275]
+
+ * generic/tclFileName.c (Tcl_TranslateFileName): Applied patch from
+ Newman to significantly speedup file split/join on Windows (replaces
+ regexp with custom parser). [Bug: 2867]
+
+ * win/README.binary: change mailing lists from @consortium.org to
+ @scriptics.com [Bug: 4173]
+
+2000-02-28 Eric Melski <ericm@scriptics.com>
+
+ * tests/clock.test: Added test for ISO bases < 100000
+
+ * generic/tclDate.c: (generated on Solaris)
+ * generic/tclGetDate.y: Changed condition for deciding if a number is
+ an ISO 8601 base from number >= 100000 to numberOfDigits >= 6.
+ Previously it would fail to recognize 000000 as an ISO base.
+
+2000-02-14 Eric Melski <ericm@scriptics.com>
+
+ * unix/Makefile.in: Added rpm target to generate Tcl binary RPM.
+
+ * unix/tcl.spec: RPM specification file for a Tcl binary RPM for
+ Linux.
+
+2000-02-10 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>

+
+2000-02-09 Jim Ingham <jingham@cygnus.com>
+
+ * mac/tclMacSock.c: Don't panic when you get an error closing an async

+ the caller can do the right thing.
+
+ New Files:
+ * mac/MW_TclHeader.h:
+ * mac/MW_TclTestHeader.h:
+ * mac/MW_TclTestHeader.pch:

+
+ * tests/clock.test: Added tests for "next monthname" constructs.

+
+ * 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

+
+ * tests/pkg/spacename.tcl:
+ * tests/pkgMkIndex.test: Tests for fix for bug #2360.

+
+ * tests/pkg/magicchar.tcl:
+ * tests/autoMkindex.test: Test for fix for bug #2611.
+
+ * library/auto.tcl: Fixed the regular expression that performs $

+
+2000-01-27 Eric Melski <ericm@scriptics.com>
+
+ * tests/autoMkindex.test:
+ * library/auto.tcl: Applied patch (with slight modification) from bug

+
+2000-01-27 Jennifer Hom <jenn@scriptics.com>
+
+ * library/tcltest1.0/tcltest.tcl: Changed NormalizePath to

+ built-in commands for COMSPEC on NT. [Bug: 2858]
+
+ * unix/tclUnixPort.h: moved include of <utime.h> 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.

+ Mac. (Darley)
+
+ * generic/tclInt.h:

+
+ * doc/lreplace.n: Corrected man page with respect to treatment of
+ empty lists, and "prettied up" the page. (bug #1705).

+
+ * 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).
+

+ 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 <hobbs@scriptics.com>
+
+ * 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

+ 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.

+ which lsort -dictionary [list ` AA c CC] and lsort -dictionary [list
+ AA c ` CC] gave different (and both wrong) results.
