1.39 +Release 145 made by Graham Asher on 7th October 1999
1.40 +====================================================
1.41 +
1.42 +This release is intended for Text 6.0.
1.43 +
1.44 +Fixed the following defects reported in Symbian Defect Tracking:
1.45 +
1.46 +EDNGASR-4BWKHA: ETEXT test code ought not to depend on the text window server
1.47 +EDNGASR-4CFD6Q: Import and export of Unicode plain text doesn't conform to the Unicode standard
1.48 +
1.49 +Release 144 made by Graham Asher on 27th September 1999
1.50 +=======================================================
1.51 +
1.52 +This release is intended for Text 6.0.
1.53 +
1.54 +Removed ancient history from this file (release.txt). You can still look at it by getting older versions.
1.55 +
1.56 +Fixed the following defects reported in Symbian Defect Tracking:
1.57 +
1.58 +EDNGASR-4C2EHD: ETEXT should build for WINC platform
1.59 +EDNGASR-4C2EE5: CParaFormat::CopyL uses the heap unnecessarily.
1.60 +EDNGASR-4C2ECH: TBullet's character code ought to be initialised to a bullet
1.61 +
1.62 +While fixing the problem with CParaFormat::CopyL I was able to tidy up the construction and freeing of heap-based attributes: tabs, bullets and borders. I also removed or corrected many redundant and misleading comments.
1.63 +
1.64 +

1.68 +This version is intended for ER5u.
1.69 +
1.70 +Removed Standard Unicode Compression Scheme code. This is now in STORE 061. Changed txtetext.cpp to use the STORE version. Made ETEXT dependent on STORE 061.
1.71 +
1.72 +Release 104 made by Lane Roberts on 28th January 1999
1.73 +=====================================================
1.74 +
1.75 +- Changed copyright messages to refer to Symbian.
1.76 +- Upgraded MNT VALID to use EVALID.

1.87 +Fixed the following bugs (see 'ER5 defects'):
1.88 +
1.89 +EDN108721: Unicode byte order mark is the wrong value
1.90 +EDN724804: CRichText::RemoveSpecificParaFormatL fails in debug mode if aLength is zero
1.91 +EDN342775: mnt file problems (gets pdb files for release versions & getrel doesn't work)
1.92 +
1.93 +Release 101 made by Graham Asher on 11th January 1999
1.94 +=====================================================
1.95 +
1.96 +Fixed the following bugs (see 'ER5 defects'):
1.97 +
1.98 +EDN642121: Panic when deleting an unused, user-defined style
1.99 +EDN700414: CBase 21 panic, Word (ETEXT internalising a corrupt file)
1.100 +EDN815855: Corrupt file
1.101 +EDN211326: CStyleList::Remove fails to nullify iStyleForNextPara and iBasedOn pointers
1.102 +EDN458446: Category() is not used and should be removed
1.103 +EDN533608: Export as text doesn't output a BOM marker
1.104 +
1.105 +Release 100 made by Graham Asher on 30th November 1998
1.106 +======================================================
1.107 +
1.108 +Two important bug fixes (see the 'ER5 defects' database on Notes)
1.109 +
1.110 +ETEXT appears to store text on the clipboard differently to older roms
1.111 +Word panic USER-CBase 21 importing text files
1.112 +
1.113 +Release 099 made by David Batchelor on 12th November 1998
1.114 +=========================================================
1.115 +
1.116 +* Backwards compatible with 098
1.117 +* WINS built with VC5
1.118 +* Now dependent on BRDCST and FEPBASE
1.119 +
1.120 +- Support for front-end-processor inline editing added in CEditableText. This
1.121 + consists of 6 new exported functions in that class:
1.122 + ~CEditableText // calls CancelFepInlineEdit
1.123 + StartFepInlineEditL // cannot be called more than once without an intervening CommitFepInlineEditL or CancelFepInlineEdit
1.124 + UpdateFepInlineTextL // can only be called once StartFepInlineEditL has been called
1.125 + CommitFepInlineEditL // can only be called once StartFepInlineEditL has been called
1.126 + CancelFepInlineEdit // can be called regardless of whether StartFepInlineEditL has been called
1.127 + OverrideFormatOfInlineTextIfApplicable // (protected) to be called by MLayDoc-deriving classes at the end of their GetChars implementations
1.128 + Unfortunately, ETEXT clients won't call the new destructor without
1.129 + rebuilding :-(. Not much can be done about that. It shouldn't be very
1.130 + problematic if it's not called though. (In fact it should never need to
1.131 + be called if front-end processors do what their supposed to.)
1.132 +
1.133 +- In order to add new member data to CEditableText in a binary-compatible
1.134 + way, I had to do a bit of awkward coding using thread-local storage. This
1.135 + is in TXTFEP.H and TXTFEP.CPP.
1.136 +
1.137 +- Added a number of bug-fixes as advised by Graham Asher and Andrew Thoelke
1.138 + (defect-numbers are from the "EPOC Software Defects" database): SW1-267,
1.139 + SW1-316, SW1-323 and SW1-347.
1.140 +
1.141 +- Added a cast at line 296 of TXTPLAIN.CPP to prevent a compiler warning.
1.142 +
1.143 +- Fixed a bug where "mnt gete32" and "mnt getf32" were both getting WINC
1.144 + releasables without the necessary directories having been created in the
1.145 + epoc32 directory tree. This was causing all the WINC stuff to overwrite the
1.146 + contents of \epoc32\release\wins\udeb :-(.
1.147 +
1.148 +- Rearranged "mnt getbld" to a more standard order, and passed the version
1.149 + number on to "getsrc". Thus doing a "pgetbld" on versions before the tip
1.150 + revision should now work.
1.151 +
1.152 +- Commented out the initial "ebld cleantest" call inside "ebld testall".
1.153 +
1.154 +- "ebld makeworkdir" now creates \epoc32\include before calling makmake's
1.155 + "makework" to prevent makmake errors.
1.156 +
1.157 +- No changes were made to the test-code other than getting it to build
1.158 + without errors/warnings (well, very nearly without warnings). In order to
1.159 + get over the problem of the name clashes of EGray4 etc, it is necessary to
1.160 + hack the values of TVideoMode in \epoc32\include\e32twin.h to something
1.161 + else (e.g. add an initial '_'). (Test-code for the front-end-processor
1.162 + inline editing stuff is planned to be added at a later date.) All the
1.163 + WINS DEB and WINS REL test-code completes. However, a fair bit of
1.164 + WINS UDEB fails, and I haven't got time to look into this for this release.
1.165 + No MARM test-code was run (again, to speed up the release).
1.166 +
1.167 +
1.168 +Release 097 made by Graham Asher on 7th September 1998
1.169 +======================================================
1.170 +
1.171 +The main change, and the reason for this release, is to compress externalized text in the Unicode
1.172 +build to allay the fears of licensees about the size of stored text. The compression method is
1.173 +the Standard Compression Scheme for Unicode, described in the Unicode Consortium's web site
1.174 +at http://www.unicode.org/unicode/reports/tr6.html. It is relatively easy to implement, fast,
1.175 +and compresses even very short pieces of text significantly. Text mainly in small alphabetic scripts
1.176 +(Latin, Greek, Cyrillic, Hebrew, Arabic, Devanagari, Thai, etc.) is compressed to about half its
1.177 +original size, while pure Chinese text, which is probably the most difficult case, is expanded by
1.178 +the single byte required to switch to plain uncompressed Unicode.
1.179 +
1.180 +I have made some other small changes, mainly to allow the ARM version to buld cleanly.
1.181 +
1.182 +Major changes in detail:
1.183 +
1.184 +Added UNICOMP.CPP and UNICODE.H to the ETEXT source files; these implement Unicode
1.185 +compression. All their code is #ifdef'd out in the narrow build.
1.186 +
1.187 +Added TXTPLAIN.CPP and TXTPLAIN.H to the ETEXT source files; they replace TXTTRAN.CPP and TXTTRAN.H,
1.188 +which is no longer exported (it was exported erroneously).
1.189 +
1.190 +TXTETEXT.CPP: changed CPlainText::InternalizePlainTextL(RReadStream& aStream),
1.191 +CPlainText::InternalizePlainTextL(RReadStream& aStream,TInt aLength),
1.192 +and CPlainText::PasteFromStreamL(RReadStream& aStream,TInt aPos) to expand Unicode text according
1.193 +to the compression scheme;
1.194 +changed CPlainText::ExternalizePlainTextL(RWriteStream& aStream) const,
1.195 +CPlainText::ExternalizePlainTextNoLengthCountL(RWriteStream& aStream) const,
1.196 +and CPlainText::CopyToStreamL(RWriteStream& aStream,TInt aPos,TInt aLength) const
1.197 +to compress Unicode text according to the compression scheme.
1.198 +
1.199 +Added new exported functions, CPlainText::ImportTextL and CPlainText::ExportTextL, to import and export text in
1.200 +CR-LF-delimited form. The existing functions work only with files; the new functions work with arbitrary streams.
1.201 +
1.202 +TXTETEXT.H: added declarations for CPlainText::ImportTextL and CPlainText::ExportTextL.
1.203 +
1.204 +Added a missing DEF file entry to the WINS debug builds: CRichTextStoreMap<CParagraphStyle>::__DbgTestInvariant.
