2000-12-14 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* 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]
2000-12-10 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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...
2000-11-21 Andreas Kupries <[email protected]>
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 <[email protected]>. 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* win/.cvsignore: Removed 'configure' from the glob list now that it's
included.
2000-11-03 Jeff Hobbs <[email protected]>
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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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
incompatability 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:
* generic/tclIO.c:
* generic/tclIO.h:
* generic/tclIOGT.c:
* generic/tclInt.decls:
* generic/tclIntDecls.h:
* generic/tclStubInit.c:
* generic/tclTest.c:
* tests/iogt.test:
* unix/Makefile.in:
* win/Makefile.in:
* win/makefile.vc:
* win/tclConfig.sh.in:
* win/tclWinChan.c:
* win/tclWinConsole.c:
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* win/tclConfig.sh.in (TCL_LIBS): Cleaned up unix-specific autoconf
variables.
2000-07-11 Jeff Hobbs <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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.
******************************************************
** END OF ASYNCHRONOUS UP-PORT LOG (8.3.2 -> 8.4a2) **
******************************************************
2000-09-20 Jeff Hobbs <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* doc/trace.n: minor doc cleanup
2000-09-06 Andr��z <[email protected]>

* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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.

2000-08-29 Eric Melski <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* doc/man.macros: Tweaked tab settings for .SO (Standard Options)
sections, based on suggestion from Peter Spjuth.
2000-08-24 Mo DeJong <[email protected]>
* unix/README: Update to account for removal of --enable-gcc.
* unix/configure.in:
* unix/tcl.m4 (SC_ENABLE_GCC): Remove --enable-gcc option.
* 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 <[email protected]>
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.

[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 <[email protected]>
* generic/tclVar.c: Added check for non-arrays for [array statistics]
command (patch from Mark Patton).
2000-08-19 David Gravereaux <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* win/.cvsignore (added): provides a cleaner build environment with
graphical CVS clients.
2000-08-15 Eric Melski <[email protected]>

* 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
of http://dev.scriptics.com/support/...).
2000-08-11 Eric Melski <[email protected]>
* generic/tclEnv.c (TclUnsetEnv): Changed declaration of length
variable from "unsigned int" to "int", to match usage when passed to
TclpFindVariable [Bug: 6126].
2000-08-10 Eric Melski <[email protected]>
* library/msgcat1.0/pkgIndex.tcl: Bumped version number to 1.2 [Bug:
6100].
* library/msgcat1.0/msgcat.tcl: Removed erroneous [package forget] in
msgcat namespace initializer. Bumped version number to 1.2 [Bug: 6100]
2000-08-10 David Gravereaux <[email protected]>
* generic/tclObj.c: r1.15 accidentally changed a global mutex name
tclObjMutex to ObjMutex. Put the correct name back.
2000-08-07 Eric Melski <[email protected]>
* tests/indexObj.test: Added tests using the [testwrongnumargs]
command to test Tcl_WrongNumArgs.

* win/tclWinInit.c: Thread-safe rewrite for tclAsync.c. Added notifier
alerting on all platforms as it was only working on Win before.
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 <[email protected]>
* generic/tclVar.c (CallTraces): Added check for VAR_TRACE_ACTIVE on
the array containing the variable before executing traces on that
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
prevent potential memory leaks [Bug: 6041].
2000-07-24 Eric Melski <[email protected]>

allow custom key types, such as Tcl_Obj *'s, and others.
* tests/pkgMkIndex.test: Added tests for pkg_compareExtension.
* library/package.tcl: Enhanced pkg_compareExtension to handle Unixes
which tack the version number on to the end of library names (eg,
foo.so.1.2); such filenames will be correctly matched. (Patch from
Vince Darley).
* win/makefile.vc: Applied patch from Don Porter to provide better
nmake support for NT/Alpha [RFE: 5938].
2000-07-18 Mo DeJong <[email protected]>
* unix/configure.in:
* unix/tcl.m4:
* win/tcl.m4: Properly quote arguments to m4 macros. This allows Tcl
to work with the new version of autoconf.
2000-07-18 Eric Melski <[email protected]>
* tests/opt.test: Removed references to Lfirst, Lrest functions.
* library/opt0.4/optparse.tcl: Applied patch from Chris Nelson, which
replaces the [Lfirst] function with an inline [lindex ... 0] and

* win/tclWinChan.c: Win2K OS bug with GetStdHandle(STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE)
giving the wrong answer. This made TclpGetDefaultStdChannel grab what
it thought was a valid native stdout handle. Added a new WriteFile()
test to make sure it's really valid. This OS bug doesn't affect the
shells. Only -subsystem:windows (aka WinMain) application that
dynamically load tclXX.dll [BUG: 5971]
2000-07-17 Eric Melski <[email protected]>
* library/msgcat1.0/msgcat.tcl:
* doc/msgcat.n:
* tests/msgcat.test: Applied patches from Chris Nelson, to provide the
mcmset function, which allows the translator to set multiple string
translations in a single function call, rather than requiring many
calls to mcset. [RFE: 6000, 5993]. In addition, these patches correct
mcload to use utf-8 encoding on when reading message catalog files,
and provides for better default behavior for determining the locale on
a Windows system.
2000-07-17 Mo DeJong <[email protected]>

provide extended args support for msgcat::unknown, which is used for
strings without a known translation in the current locale [Bug: 5984].
2000-06-29 Eric Melski <[email protected]>
* doc/msgcat.n: Doc's for mcmax function.
* library/msgcat1.0/msgcat.tcl: Applied patches from Laurent Duperval,
to add mcmax function, which computes the length of the longest of
several translated strings. Bumped version number to 1.1.
2000-06-27 Eric Melski <[email protected]>
* tests/stringObj.test: Tweaked tests to avoid hardcoded high-ASCII

2000-06-06 Jeff Hobbs <[email protected]>
8.4a1 RELEASE
* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode INST_STR_CMP): added test
of iResult return from memcmp, as memcmp isn't required to return only
-1,0,1.
2000-06-03 Jeff Hobbs <[email protected]>
* generic/tclIndexObj.c (Tcl_GetIndexFromObjStruct): Corrected caching
of the index ptr to account for offsets != sizeof(char *). [Bug: 5153]
2000-05-29 Sandeep Tamhankar <[email protected]>
* 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.
2000-05-27 Jeff Hobbs <[email protected]>
* tests/info.test:
* doc/info.n:
* generic/tclIOUtil.c (Tcl_EvalFile):
* generic/tclCmdIL.c (InfoScriptCmd): added ability to set the info

beneficial for virtual file system programs. [Bug: 4225]
2000-05-26 Jeff Hobbs <[email protected]>
* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_RegsubObjCmd): reworked to operate in
Unicode, tweaked for performance.
(Tcl_StringObjCmd) changed STR_FIRST/STR_LAST error message to
something more understandable, reworked STR_FIRST, STR_LAST, STR_MAP,
STR_MATCH, STR_RANGE, STR_REPLACE to operate in Unicode. Removed
inneffectual STR_RANGE "special" ByteArray support. Optimized STR_MAP
algorithm, especially optimized for one-pair case. Fixed possible mem
overrun in STR_INDEX bytearray case.
* generic/tclCompExpr.c: changed INST_STREQ -> INST_STR_EQ,
INST_STRNEQ -> INST_STR_NEQ
* generic/tclCompile.c: added streq, strneq, strcmp, strlen &
strmatch to the compiled stats instructionTable
* generic/tclCompile.h: added instructions INST_STR_CMP,
INST_STR_INDEX, INST_STR_MATCH
* generic/tclCompCmds.c: added byte compiler support for [string
compare|match|index].
* generic/tclExecute.c: Changed INST_STR_(N)EQ to return an Int object
and not bother trying to reuse the top stack object. Added
INST_STR_CMP, INST_STR_INDEX, INST_STR_MATCH bytecode ops. Extended
evalstats output info with Tcl_IsShared stat info.
* generic/tclInt.h:
* generic/tclObj.c (Tcl_DbIsShared): added support for checking result
of Tcl_IsShared in evalstats (TCL_COMPILE_STATS).
* generic/tclStringObj.c (Tcl_AppendUnicodeToObj): removed dead code.
(AppendUnicodeToUnicodeRep) removed overallocation by extra
sizeof(Tcl_UniChar) multiplier.
* tests/string.test: added string map tests for the one-pair case,
corrected tests to reflect improved error messages in first/last.
Added tests against mem overrun in string index bytearray case.
2000-05-23 Eric Melski <[email protected]>

TclCompileReturnCmd to BuiltInCmds table.
* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): Added support for the
INST_STRLEN opcode.
* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileStringCmd): Basic implementation of
byte-compiled [string] command. Not all subcommands are implemented;
those that are not an out-line compiled.
(TclCompileReturnCmd): Byte-compiled implementation of [return]
command. Only "simple" returns are byte-compiled; in particular, if
the -code, -errorinfo or -errorcode flags are used, the command is not
byte-compiled.
2000-05-22 Jeff Hobbs <[email protected]>

keyword when it follows multiple relative unit specifiers, as in "2
days 2 hours ago". [Bug: 5497]
2000-05-18 Jeff Hobbs <[email protected]>
* win/{tcl.m4,Makefile.in,configure.in}: added support for mingw
compile env and cross-compiling. [Bug: 5499]
* generic/tclClock.c (FormatClock): correct code to handle locale
specific return values from strftime, if any. [Bug: 3345]
* unix/tclUnixInit.c (TclpSetInitialEncodings): attempt to correct
setlocale calls for XIM support and locale issues. [BUG: 5422 3345
4236 2522 2521]
2000-05-17 Jeff Hobbs <[email protected]>
* library/init.tcl (auto_import): added check to see if a valid
pattern was coming in, to avoid simple error cases [Bug: 3326]
* doc/regsub.n: correct regsub docs [Bug: 5346]
2000-05-15 Eric Melski <[email protected]>
* library/history.tcl: Corrected an off-by-one error in HistIndex,
which was causing [history redo] to start its search at the wrong
event index. [Bug: 1269].
2000-05-10 Jeff Hobbs <[email protected]>
* generic/tclPosixStr.c (Tcl_SignalMsg): clarified #defines for Linux
on Sparc to compile correctly. [Bug: 5364]
* doc/namespace.n:
* tests/namespace.test:
* generic/tclNamesp.c (Tcl_NamespaceObjCmd): added 'namespace exists'
command. [Bug: 4665]
* doc/source.n:
* doc/Eval.3:
* tests/source.test:
* generic/tclIOUtil.c (Tcl_EvalFile): added explicit \32 (^Z) eofchar
(affects Tcl_EvalFile in C, "source" in Tcl). This was implicit on
Windows already, and is now cross-platform to allow for scripted
documents.
2000-05-09 Andreas Kupries <[email protected]>
operating as proxy for David Gravereaux <[email protected]>
* win/tclWinThrd.c (TclpInitLock, TclpMasterLock): Added missing
initialization of joinLock.
2000-05-09 Eric Melski <[email protected]>
* tests/lsearch.test:
* doc/lsearch.n:
* generic/tclCmdIL.c (Tcl_LsearchObjCmd): Extended [lsearch] to
support sorted list searching and typed list searching. [RFE: 4098].
2000-05-08 Jeff Hobbs <[email protected]>
* doc/expr.n:
* tests/expr.test:
* tests/expr-old.test: added tests for 'eq' and 'ne'
* generic/tclExecute.c:
* generic/tclCompile.h: added INST_STREQ and INST_STRNEQ opcodes that
do strict string comparisons.
* generic/tclCompExpr.c: added 'eq' and 'ne' string comparison
operators.
* generic/tclParseExpr.c (GetLexeme): added 'eq' and 'ne' expr parse
terms (string (in)equality check).
* generic/tclCmdIL.c (Tcl_LinsertObjCmd): made use of
Tcl_DuplicateObj where code was otherwise duplicated. Made special
case of inserting one element at the end work again (where index ==
len).
(Tcl_LreplaceObjCmd): moved Tcl_DuplicateObj call lower and cleaned
up use of other arguments.
* generic/tclObj.c (Tcl_DuplicateObj): simplified code to call
TclInitStringRep, which the code was just duplicating in part.
* doc/Utf.3:
* generic/tclStubInit.c:
* generic/tcl.decls:
* generic/tclDecls.h:
* generic/tclUtf.c: Added new functions Tcl_UniCharNcasecmp and
Tcl_UniCharCaseMatch (unicode parallel to Tcl_StringCaseMatch)
* generic/tclUtil.c: rewrote Tcl_StringCaseMatch algorithm for
optimization and made Tcl_StringMatch just call Tcl_StringCaseMatch
* tests/string.test: extended string match tests
2000-05-08 Eric Melski <[email protected]>
* tests/set-old.test:
* doc/array.n:
* generic/tclVar.c: Added [array statistics] command [RFE: 4557]
2000-05-06 Andreas Kupries <[email protected]>
operating as proxy for David Gravereaux <[email protected]>
* tclThreadJoin.c: Fixed several places with missing a & in arguments
to calls of Tcl_Mutex(Un)lock and Tcl_ConditionNotify functions.

2000-05-02 Andreas Kupries <[email protected]>
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.
* tests/thread.test: Added tests for joining of threads.
2000-04-27 Eric Melski <[email protected]>
* doc/library.n: Added entries for auto_qualify and auto_import
[Bug: 1271].
* doc/Init.3: Manual entry for Tcl_Init [Bug: 1820].
* doc/expr.n: Added documentation for each of the math library
functions that expr supports [Bug: 1054].
2000-04-26 Eric Melski <[email protected]>
* doc/memory.n: Man page for Tcl "memory" command, which is created
when TCL_MEM_DEBUG is defined at compile time.
* doc/TCL_MEM_DEBUG.3: Man page with overall information about
TCL_MEM_DEBUG usage.
* doc/DumpActiveMemory.3: Man page for Tcl_DumpActiveMemory,
Tcl_InitMemory, and Tcl_ValidateAllMemory [Bug: 1816, 1835].
* 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].

added write of 'q' into triggerPipe for notifier in threaded case, so
that Tcl doesn't hang when children are still running [Bug: 4139]
* unix/tclUnixThrd.c (Tcl_MutexLock): minor comment fixes.
2000-04-23 Jim Ingham <[email protected]>
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.
2000-04-22 Jim Ingham <[email protected]>
* library/package.tcl (tclPkgUnknown): Fixed a typo in the Mac package
search part of tclPkgUnknown.
2000-04-21 Sandeep Tamhankar <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* library/http2.1/http.tcl: More thrashing with the "server closes
without reading post data" scenario. Reverted to the previous filevent
configuratiuon, which seems to work better with small amounts of post
data.
2000-04-20 Jeff Hobbs <[email protected]>
* generic/tclAlloc.c: wrapped caddr_t define to not be done on Unix
* unix/tclUnixPort.h: added Tclp*Alloc defines to allow the use of
USE_TCLALLOC on Unix. [Bug: 4731]
2000-04-19 Jeff Hobbs <[email protected]>
* library/dde1.1/pkgIndex.tcl:
* library/reg1.0/pkgIndex.tcl:
* win/tclWinChan.c:
* win/tclWinThrd.c: converted CRLF to LF the */tcl.hpj.in files were
not converted, as it confuses hcw locally. [Bug: 5096]
* win/Makefile.in: expanded cleanup target for help files
* doc/Thread.3: minor macro cleanup
* generic/tclFileName.c (SplitUnixPath): added support for QNX node
ids.

* unix/tclUnixChan.c (CreateSocket): force a socket back into blocking
mode (default state) after a -async connect succeeds. [Bug: 4388]
* generic/tclEvent.c (TclInitSubsystems): Moved tclLibraryPath to
thread-local storage to prevent thread-related race condition.
[Bug: 5033]
* unix/tclAppInit.c (main): removed #ifdef TCL_TEST that sets the
library path as it was unnecessary and conflicts with move of
tclLibraryPath to thread-local storage.

proc.
2000-04-14 Jeff Hobbs <[email protected]>

* 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 <[email protected]>
* doc/dde.n: corrected dde poke docs. [Bug: 4991]
2000-04-11 Eric Melski <[email protected]>
* win/tclWinPipe.c: Added "CONST" keyword to declaration of char
*native in TclpCreateTempFile, to supress compiler warnings.
2000-04-10 Brent Welch <[email protected]>
* generic/tcl.h: Fixed Tcl_CreateThread declaration.
* library/tcltest1.0/tcltest.tcl: Fixed the "mainThread"
initialization to work with either testthread or the thread extension
* unix/tclUnixThrd.c: Fixed compiler warning when compiling with
-DTCL_THREADS
2000-04-10 Eric Melski <[email protected]>
* 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 occurances of "namespace import
::tcltest" to "namespace import -force ::tcltest" [Bug: 3948].
2000-04-09 Brent Welch <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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
<[email protected]> 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* {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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* generic/tclCmdIL.c (InfoVarsCmd): checked for non-NULL procPtr to
prevent itcl info override crash [Bug: 4064]
* tests/foreach.test:
* tests/namespace.test:
* tests/var.test: Added lsorts to avoid random sorted return
problems. [Bug: 2682]
* tests/fileName.test: fixed 14.1 test fragility [Bug: 1482]
* 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 <[email protected]>
* unix/tclUnixFCmd.c (SetGroupAttribute):
* unix/tclUnixFCmd.c (SetOwnerAttribute): Added (uid_t) and (gid_t)
casts to avoid compiler warnings.
2000-03-31 Eric Melski <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>

* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 ([email protected])
2000-02-08 Eric Melski <[email protected]>
* 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).

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 <[email protected]>
* tests/package.test:
* library/tclIndex:
* library/package.tcl: Renamed ::package namespace to ::pkg.
2000-02-03 Eric Melski <[email protected]>
* doc/Package.n:
* doc/packagens.n: Renamed Package.n -> packagens.n because Windows
can't deal with case-sensitive names.
2000-02-02 Jeff Hobbs <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* library/init.tcl: Applied patch from rfe 1734 regarding auto_load
errors not setting error message and errorInfo properly.
2000-02-01 Jeff Hobbs <[email protected]>

terminated when it shouldn't be altered [Bug: 4089]
2000-01-31 Eric Melski <[email protected]>
* tests/package.test:
* library/tclIndex:
* library/package.tcl: Added ::package namespace and ::package::create
function.

* doc/pkgMkIndex.n: Added additional information.
* doc/library.n: Added additional qualification regarding auto_mkindex.
2000-01-28 Eric Melski <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* generic/tclNamesp.c: Undid fix for #956, which broke backwards
compatibility.
* doc/variable.n:
* doc/trace.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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <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.
[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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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.

warning
2000-01-13 Eric Melski <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* tests/clock.test: Added tests for "next <day-of-week>" and
"<day-of-week>"
Added tests for "monday 1 week ago", etc, from RFE #3671.

formats and additional explanation of daylight savings time correction
algorithm.
2000-01-12 Jeff Hobbs <[email protected]>

* tests/unixFCmd.test:
* unix/tclUnixFCmd.c: added support for symbolic permissions setting
in SetPermissionsAttribute (file attr $file -perm ...) [Bug: 3970]
* generic/tclClock.c: fixed support for 64bit handling of clock values
[Bug: 1806]
* generic/tclThreadTest.c: upped a buffer size to hold double

compile proc [Bug: 2100]
* tests/expr.test:
* unix/Makefile.in:
* unix/configure.in:
* unix/tcl.m4: recognize strtod bug on Tru64 v5.0 [Bug: 3378] and
added tests to prevent unnecessary chmod +x in sources while
installing, as well as more intelligent setsockopt/gethostbyname
checks [Bug: 3366, 3389]
* unix/tclUnixThrd.c: added compile time support (through use of the
TCL_THREAD_STACK_MIN define) for increasing the default stack size for
a thread. [Bug: 3797, 1966]
2000-01-11 Eric Melski <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <number>" 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 <[email protected]>
* generic/tclClock.c: Changed switch in Tcl_ClockObjCmd to use
enumerated values instead of constants. (ie, COMMAND_SCAN instead of
3).
