3 * changes: updated changes file
4 * tools/tclSplash.bmp: updated to show 8.3
6 1999-12-21 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
14 * win/configure.in: updated to patch level 8.3b1
16 * unix/Makefile.in: added -srcdir=... for 'make html'
18 * doc/Hash.3: fixed reference to ckfree [Bug: 3912]
19 * doc/RegExp.3: fixed calling params for Tcl_RegExecFromObj
20 * doc/open.n: fixed minor formatting errors
21 * doc/string.n: fixed minor formatting errors
23 * doc/lsort.n: added -unique docs
25 * generic/tclCmdIL.c: added -unique option to lsort
27 * generic/tclThreadTest.c: changed thread ids to longs [Bug: 3902]
29 * mac/tclMacOSA.c: fixed applescript for I18N [Bug: 3644]
32 * win/rmd.bat: removed necessity of tag.txt [Bug: 3874]
34 * win/tclWinThrd.c: changed CreateThread to _beginthreadex and
35 ExitThread to _endthreadex
37 1999-12-12 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
40 * tests/fileName.test:
41 * generic/tclInt.decls:
43 * generic/tclIntDecls.h:
44 * generic/tclStubInit.c:
45 * generic/tclEncoding.c:
46 * generic/tclFileName.c:
49 * win/tclWinFile.c: enhanced the glob command with the new options
50 -types -path -directory and -join. Deprecated TclpMatchFiles with
51 TclpMatchFilesTypes, extended TclGlob and TclDoGlob and added
52 GlobTypeData structure. [Bug: 2363]
54 1999-12-10 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
57 * generic/tclCompile.c: fixed problem where setting to {} array
58 would intermittently not work. (Fontaine) [Bug: 3339]
61 * generic/tclExecute.c: optimized INST_TRY_CVT_TO_NUMERIC to
62 recognize boolean objects. (Spjuth) [Bug: 2815]
65 * tests/parseOld.test:
67 * generic/tclProc.c: changed Tcl_UplevelObjCmd (uplevel) and
68 Tcl_EvalObjCmd (eval) to use TCL_EVAL_DIRECT in the single arg
69 case as well, to take advantage of potential pure list input
70 optimization. This means that it won't get byte compiled though,
71 which should be acceptable.
72 * generic/tclBasic.c: made Tcl_EvalObjEx pure list object aware in
73 the TCL_EVAL_DIRECT case for efficiency.
74 * generic/tclUtil.c: made Tcl_ConcatObj pure list object aware,
75 and return a list object in that case [Bug: 2098 2257]
77 * generic/tclMain.c: changed Tcl_Main to not constantly reuse the
78 commandPtr object (interactive case) as it could be shared. (Fellows)
82 * unix/tclUnixPipe.c: removed checking for compatible vfork
83 function and use of the vfork function. Modern VM systems rarely
84 suffer any performance degradation when fork is used, and it
85 solves multiple problems with vfork. Users that still want vfork
86 can add -Dfork=vfork to the compile flags. [Bug: 942 2228 1312]
88 1999-12-09 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
90 * win/aclocal.m4: made it just include tcl.m4
99 * win/tclWinSock.c: removed all code that supported Win32s. It
100 was no longer officially supported, and likely didn't work anyway.
101 * win/makefile.vc: removed 16 bit stuff, cleaned up.
105 * win/winDumpExts.c: these files have been removed from the
106 source tree (no longer necessary to build)
108 1999-12-07 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
110 * tests/io.test: removed 'knownBug' tests that were for
111 unsupported0, which is now fcopy (that already has tests)
113 * mac/tclMacPort.h: added utime.h include
116 * unix/Makefile.in: fixed make gendate to swap const with CONST
117 so it uses the Tcl defined CONST type [Bug: 3521]
119 * generic/tclIO.c: removed panic that could occur in FlushChannel
120 when a "blocking" channel would receive EAGAIN, instead treating
121 it the same as non-blocking. [Bug: 3773]
123 * generic/tclUtil.c: fixed Tcl_ScanCountedElement to not step
124 beyond the end of the counted string [Bug: 3336]
126 1999-12-03 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
128 * doc/load.n: added note about NT's buggy handling of './' with
131 * library/http2.1/http.tcl: fixed error handling in http::Event
134 * tests/env.test: removed knownBug limitation from working test
135 * tests/all.tcl: ensured that ::tcltest::testsDirectory would be
136 set to an absolute path
138 * tests/expr-old.test:
139 * tests/parseExpr.test:
144 * generic/tclParseExpr.c:
146 * generic/tclExecute.c: added TclCheckBadOctal routine to enhance
147 error message checking for when users use invalid octal numbers
148 (like 08), as well as replumbed the Expr*Funcs with a new
149 VerifyExprObjType to simplify type handling. [Bug: 2467]
152 * generic/tclCompile.c: fixed 'bad code length' error for
153 'expr + {[incr]}' case, with new test case [Bug: 3736]
154 and seg fault on 'expr + {[error]}' (different cause) that
155 was caused by a correct optimization that didn't correctly
156 track how it was modifying the source string in the opt.
157 The optimization was removed, which means that:
158 expr 1 + {[string length abc]}
159 will be not be compiled inline as before, but this should be
161 expr {1 + [string length abc]}
162 which will be compiled inline for speed. This prevents
163 expr 1 + {[mindless error]}
164 from seg faulting, and only affects optimizations for
165 degenerate cases [Bug: 3737]
167 1999-12-01 Scott Redman <redman@scriptics.com>
169 * generic/tcl.decls :
170 * generic/tclMain.c :
172 * win/tclAppInit.c: Added two new internal functions,
173 TclSetStartupScriptFileName() and TclGetStartupScriptFileName()
174 and added hooks into the main() code for supporting TclPro and
175 other "big" shells more easily without requiring a copy of the
178 * generic/tclEncoding.c:
179 * generic/tclEvent.c: Moved encoding-related startup code from
180 tclEvent.c into the more appropriate tclEncoding.c.
182 1999-11-30 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
184 * generic/tclIO.c: fix from Kupries for Tcl_UnstackChannel that
185 correctly handles resetting translation and encoding.
187 * generic/tclLoad.c: #def'd out the unloading of DLLs at finalize
188 time for Unix in TclFinalizeLoad. [Bug: 2560 3373] Should be
189 parametrized to allow for user to specify unload or not.
191 * win/tclWinTime.c: fixed handling of %Z on NT for time zones
194 1999-11-29 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
196 * library/dde1.1/pkgIndex.tcl:
197 * library/reg1.0/pkgIndex.tcl: added supported for debugged
198 versions of the libraries
200 * unix/tclUnixPipe.c: fixed PipeBlockModeProc to properly set
201 isNonBlocking flag on pipe. [Bug: 1356 710]
202 removed spurious fcntl call from PipeBlockModeProc
205 * generic/tclScan.c: fixed scan where %[..] didn't match anything
206 and added test case [Bug: 3700]
208 1999-11-24 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
211 * win/tclWinSerial.c: adopted patch from Schroedter to handle
212 fconfigure $sock -lasterror on Windows. [RFE: 3368]
214 * generic/tclCmdIL.c: made SORTMODE_INTEGER work with Longs
217 1999-11-23 Scott Stanton <stanton@scriptics.com>

220 went to stdout instead of the specified output file in some
223 1999-11-19 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
225 * generic/tclProc.c: backed out change from 1999-11-18 as it
226 could affect return string from upvar as well.
228 * tools/tcl.wse.in: added tcltest1.0 library to distribution list
231 * library/http2.1/http.tcl:
232 * library/http2.1/pkgIndex.tcl: updated http package to 2.2
234 1999-11-18 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
236 * unix/tcl.m4: added defined for _THREAD_SAFE in --enable-threads
237 case; added check for pthread_mutex_init in libc; in AIX case,
238 with --enable-threads ${CC}_r is used; fixed flags when using gcc
241 * generic/tclProc.c: corrected error reporting for default case
242 at the global level for uplevel command.
244 * generic/tclIOSock.c: changed int to size_t type for len
245 in TclSockMinimumBuffers.
247 * generic/tclCkalloc.c: fixed Tcl_DbCkfree to return a value
248 on NULL input. [Bug: 3400]
250 * generic/tclStringObj.c: fixed support for passing in negative
251 length to Tcl_SetUnicodeObj, et al handling routines. [Bug: 3380]
255 * generic/tclScan.c: finished support for inline scan by
256 supporting XPG identifiers.
259 * library/http2.1/http.tcl: added register and unregister
260 commands to http:: package (better support for tls/SSL),
261 as well as -type argument to http::geturl. [RFE: 2617]
263 * generic/tclBasic.c: removed extra decr of numLevels in
264 Tcl_EvalObjEx that could cause seg fault. (mjansen@wendt.de)
266 * generic/tclEvent.c: fixed possible lack of MutexUnlock in
267 Tcl_DeleteExitHandler [Bug: 3545]

276 1999-11-17 Brent Welch <welch@scriptics.com>
277 * library/http2.1/http.tcl: Correctly fixed the -timeout
278 problem mentioned in the 10-29 change. Also added error
279 handling for failed writes on the socket during the protocol.
281 1999-11-09 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
283 * doc/open.n: corrected docs for 'a' open mode.
285 * generic/tclIOUtil.c: changed Tcl_Alloc to ckalloc
288 * generic/tclObj.c: rolled back changes from 1999-10-29
289 Purify noted new leaks with that code
291 * generic/tclParse.c: added code in Tcl_ParseBraces to test for
292 possible unbalanced open brace in a comment
294 * library/init.tcl: removed the installed binary directory from
295 the auto_path variable
297 * tools/tcl.wse.in: updated to 8.3a1, fixed install of twind.tcl
300 * unix/tcl.m4: added recognition of pthreads library for AIX
302 1999-10-29 Brent Welch <welch@scriptics.com>
303 * generic/tclInt.h: Modified the TclNewObj and TclDecrRefCount
304 in two ways. First, in the case of TCL_THREADS, we do not use
305 the special Tcl_Obj allocator because that is a source of
306 lock contention. Second, general code cleanup to eliminate
307 duplicated code. In particular, TclDecrRefCount now uses
308 TclFreeObj instead of duplicating that code, so it is now
309 identical to Tcl_DecrRefCount.
311 * generic/tclObj.c: Changed Tcl_NewObj so it uses the
312 TclNewObj macro instead of duplicating the code. Adjusted
313 TclFreeObj so it understands the TCL_THREADS case described
316 * library/http2.1/http.tcl: Fixed a bug in the handling of
317 the state(status) variable when the -timeout flag is specified.
318 Previously it was possible to leave the status undefined
319 instead of empty, which caused errors in http::status
321 1999-10-28 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
323 * unix/aclocal.m4: made it just include tcl.m4
325 * library/tcltest1.0/tcltest.tcl: updated makeFile to return
326 full pathname of file created
328 * generic/tclStringObj.c: fixed Tcl_AppendStringsToObjVA so it only
329 iterates once over the va_list (avoiding a memcpy of it,
330 which is not portable).
332 * generic/tclEnv.c: fixed possible ABR error in environ array
335 * generic/tclScan.c: added support for use of inline scan,
336 XPG3 currently not included
340 * generic/tclCompCmds.c: fixed improper bytecode handling of
341 'eval {set array($unknownvar) 5}' (also for incr) [Bug: 3184]
343 * win/tclWinTest.c: added testvolumetype command, as atime is
344 completely ignored for Windows FAT file systems
345 * win/tclWinPort.h: added sys/utime.h to includes
346 * unix/tclUnixPort.h: added utime.h to includes
349 * generic/tclCmdAH.c: added time arguments to atime and mtime
350 file command methods (support 'touch' functionality)

354 * unix/tclUnixNotfy.c: fixed event/io threading problems by
355 making triggerPipe non-blocking [Bug: 2792]
357 * library/tcltest1.0/tcltest.tcl:
358 * generic/tclThreadTest.c: fixed mem leaks in threads
360 * generic/tclResult.c: fixed Tcl_AppendResultVA so it only
361 iterates once over the va_list (avoiding a memcpy of it,
362 which is not portable).
364 * generic/regc_color.c: fixed mem leak and assertion, from HS
366 * generic/tclCompile.c: removed savedChar trick that appeared to
367 be causing a segv when the literal table was released
370 * generic/tclCmdMZ.c: fixed [string index] to return ByteArrayObj
371 when indexing into one (test case string-5.16) [Bug: 2871]
373 * library/http2.1/http.tcl: protected gets with catch [Bug: 2665]
375 1999-10-19 Jennifer Hom <jenn@scriptics.com>
377 * tests/tcltest.test:
379 * library/tcltest1.0/tcltest.tcl: Removed the extra return at the
380 end of the tcltest.tcl file, added version information about tcl.
382 Applied patches sent in by Andreas Kupries to add helper procs for
383 debug output, add 3 new flags (-testsdir, -load, -loadfile), and
384 internally refactors common code for dealing with paths into
385 separate procedures. [Bug: 2838, 2842]
387 Merged code from core-8-2-1 branch that changes the checks for the
388 value of tcl_interactive to also incorporate a check for the
389 existence of the variable.
391 * tests/autoMkindex.test:
392 * tests/pkgMkIndex.test: Explicitly cd to
393 ::tcltest::testsDirectory at the beginning of the test run
395 * tests/basic.test: Use version information defined in tcltest
396 instead of hardcoded version number
398 * tests/socket.test: package require tcltest before attempting to
399 use variable defined in tcltest namespace
401 * tests/unixInit.test:
402 * tests/unixNotfy.test: Added explicit exits needed to avoid
403 problems when the tests area run in wish.
405 1999-10-12 Jim Ingham <jingham@scriptics.com>
407 * mac/tclMacLoad.c: Stupid bug - we converted the filename to
408 external, but used the unconverted version.
409 * mac/tclMacFCmd.c: Fix a merge error in the bug fix for [Bug: 2869]
411 1999-10-12 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
413 * generic/regc_color.c:
414 * generic/regc_cvec.c:
415 * generic/regc_lex.c:
416 * generic/regc_locale.c:
418 * generic/regcustom.h:
423 * generic/tclRegexp.c:
425 * tests/reg.test: updated to Henry Spencer's new regexp engine

487 * generic/tclPkg.c: fixed package version check to disallow 1.2..3
490 * unix/Makefile.in: fixed gendate target - this never worked
491 since RCS was intro'd.
492 * generic/tclGetDate.y: updated to reflect previous changes
493 to tclDate.c (leap year calc) and added CEST and UCT time zone
494 recognition. Fixed 4 missing UCHAR() casts. [Bug: 2717, 954,
497 * generic/tclCkalloc.c: changed Tcl_DumpActiveMemory to really
498 dump to stderr and close it [Bug: 725] and changed Tcl_Ckrealloc
499 and Tcl_Ckfree to not bomb when NULL was passed in [Bug: 1719]
500 and changed Tcl_Alloc, et al to not panic when a alloc request
501 for zero came through and NULL was returned (valid on AIX, Tru64)
506 * generic/tclClock.c: added -milliseconds switch to clock clicks
507 to guarantee that the return value of clicks is in the millisecs
508 granularity [Bug: 2682, 1332]
510 1999-09-15 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>

523 [Bug: 2070] and fix for IRIX SHLIB_LB_LIBS. [Bug: 2610]
528 * generic/tclVar.c: added an array unset operation, with docs
529 and tests. Variation of [Bug: 1775]. Added fix in TclArraySet
530 to check when trying to set in a non-existent namespace. [Bug: 2613]
532 1999-09-14 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
534 * tests/linsert.test:

618 testencoding path command, and put unixOrPc constraints on tests
621 1999-08-21 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
623 * unix/aclocal.m4: Changed AIX-4.[2-9] check to AIX-4.[1-9]

650 * tclCmdAH.c: added "file channels ?pattern?" tcl command, with
651 associated Tcl_GetChannelNames and Tcl_GetChannelNamesEx public
652 C APIs (added to tcl.decls as well), with docs and tests.
655 * generic/tclCompile.c: add TCL_TOKEN_VARIABLE to the part types
656 that cause differed compilation for exprs, to correct the expr
657 double-evaluation problem for vars. Added test cases.
658 Related to [Bug: 732]

682 * /: 8.2.0 tagged for final release
684 1999-08-12 Scott Stanton <stanton@scriptics.com>
686 * win/Makefile.in: Added COMPILE_DEBUG_FLAGS macro to make it
687 easier to turn on compiler tracing.
690 * generic/tclParse.c: Fixed bug in Tcl_EvalEx where the termOffset
691 was not being updated in cases where the evaluation returned a non
692 TCL_OK error code. [Bug: 2535]
694 1999-08-12 Scott Redman <redman@scriptics.com>
696 * win/tclWinSerial.c: Applied patch from Petteri Kettunen to
697 remove compiler warning.

724 and tclCkalloc.c so they can be linked against alternate thread
725 packages. Added Tcl_GetChannelNames to tclIO.c. Added
726 TclVarTraceExists hook so "info exists" triggers read traces
727 exactly like it did in Tcl 7.6. Stubs table changes to reflect new
728 internal and external APIs.
730 1999-08-09 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>

748 for Windows (already mentioned in init.tcl) [Bug: 2455]
749 * generic/tclLiteral.c: fixed reference to bytes that might
750 not be null terminated (using objPtr->bytes, which is) [Bug: 2496]
751 * library/http2.1/http.tcl: Made use of "i" in init section use
752 local var and start at 0 (was 1). [Bug: 2502]

786 stub tables (from this and previous changes) from the original
789 1999-08-01 Scott Redman <redman@scriptics.com>
791 * win/tclWinSock.c: Added comment block to SocketThread()
792 function. Added code to avoid calling TerminateThread(), but
793 instead to send a message to the socket event window to tell it to
794 terminate its thread.
796 1999-07-30 Jennifer Hom <jenn@scriptics.com>
798 * tests/tcltest.test:
799 * library/tcltest1.0/tcltest.tcl: Exit with non-zero status if
800 there were problems with the way the test suite was started
801 (e.g. wrong # arguments).
803 1999-07-30 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
805 * generic/tclInt.decls: added declaractions necessary for the
806 Tcl test code to work wth stubs [Bug: 2445]
808 1999-07-30 <redman@scriptics.com>
811 * win/Makefile.in: Fixing launching of 16-bit apps on Win9x from
812 wish. The command line was primed with tclpip82.dll, but it was
813 ignored. Fixed that, then fixed the gmake makefile to build
814 tclpip82.dll as an executable.
816 * win/tclWinSock.c: Applied small patch to get thread-specific
817 data after initializing the socket driver.
819 * unix/tclUnixThrd.c: Applied patch to fix threads on Irix 6.5.

830 brackets [Bug: 2382, 2466]
832 1999-07-29 <redman@scriptics.com>
834 * win/tclWinChan.c: Allow tcl to open CON and NUL, even for std
835 channels. Checking for bad/unusable std channels was moved to Tk
836 since its only purpose was to check whether to use the Tk Console
837 Window for the std channels. [Bug: 2393 2392 2209 2458]
839 * unix/mkLinks.tcl: Applied patch to avoid linking pack.n to
840 pack-old.n. Patch from Don Porter. [Bug: 2469]

850 * tests/tcltest.test:
851 * library/tcltest1.0/tcltest.tcl: Fixed the condition under which
852 ::tcltest::PrintError had an infinite loop problem and added a
853 test case for it. Added an optional argument to
854 ::tcltest::getMatchingFiles telling it where to search for test
857 1999-07-27 <redman@scriptics.com>
859 * tools/tclSplash.bmp: Updated Windows installer bitmap
860 to ready Tcl/Tk Version 8.2.
862 1999-07-26 <redman@scriptics.com>
864 * tests/tcltest.test: Need to close the new core file, there
865 seems to be a hang in threaded WinNT if the file isn't closed.
866 Open issue, need to fix that hang.
868 * tests/httpold.test: Add time delay in response from Http server
869 so that test cases can properly detect timeout conditions with
870 threads enabled on multi-CPU WinNT.
872 * tests/winFCmd.test: Test case winFcmd-1.33 was looking for
873 c:\windows, which may not exist. Instead, create a new directory
874 on c:\ and use it for the test.
876 * win/tclWinConsole.c:
878 * win/tclWinSock.c: Fix terminating helper threads by holding any
879 mutexes from the primary thread while waiting for the helper
880 thread to terminate. Without these changes, the test suite hangs
881 on WinNT with 2 CPUs and threads enabled. Open issue, seems to be
882 a sporadic hang on dual CPU systems still (very rare).
884 1999-07-26 Jennifer Hom <jenn@scriptics.com>
886 * tests/tcltest.test:
887 * library/tcltest1.0/tcltest.tcl:
888 * doc/tcltest.n: Cleaned up code in ::tcltest::PrintError, revised
889 documentation, and added tests for the tcltest package.
891 1999-07-23 <redman@scriptics.com>
894 * generic/tclParse.c: Removed patch for info command, breaks test
895 cases on Unix. Patch was bad and needs to be redone
896 properly. [Bug: 2382]
898 1999-07-22 <redman@scriptics.com>
900 * Changed version to 8.2b2.
902 * win/tclWinSock.c: Fixed hang with threads enabled, fixed
903 semaphores with threads disabled.
905 * win/safe.test: Fixed safe-6.3 with threads enabled.
907 * win/Makefile.in: Fixed calling of tcltest to fix safe.test
908 failures due to path TCL_LIBRARY path.
910 * win/tclWinPort.h: Block out include of sys/*.h in order to
911 build extensions with MetroWerks compiler for Win32. [Bug: 2385]
913 * generic/tclCmdMZ.c:
914 * generic/tclIO.c: Fix ANSI-style prototypes based on patch from
915 Ulrich Ring. [Bug: 2391]
917 * unix/Makefile.in: Need to make install-sh executable before
918 calling (with chmod +x). [Bug: 2413]
921 * generic/tclVar.c: Fixed bug that caused a seg. fault when using
922 "array set a(b) {}", which is a bad array name anyway. Now the
923 "array set" command will return an error in this case. Added test
924 case and fixed existing test. [Bug: 2427]
926 1999-07-21 <redman@scriptics.com>
929 * generic/tclParse.c: Applied patch to fix "info complete"
930 for the string {[a [b]}. Patch from Peter Spjuth. [Bug: 2382]
934 * generic/tclDecls.h:
935 * generic/tclUtf.c: Changed function declarations in
936 non-platform-specific public APIs to use "unsigned long" instead of
937 "size_t", which may not be defined on certain compilers (rather
938 than include sys/types.h, which may not exist).
940 * unix/Makefile.in: Added the Windows configure script to the
941 distribution file list, already shipping configure.in and the .m4
942 files, but needed the configure script itself.
944 * win/makefile.vc: Changed version number of DDE package in VC++
945 makefile to use 1.1 instead of 1.0.
947 * doc/open.n: Added documentation of \\.\comX notation for opening
948 serial ports on Windows (alternative to comX:).
952 * win/tclWinSerial.c: Applied patch from Rolf Schroedter to add
953 -pollinterval option to fconfigure to modify the maxblocktime used
954 in the fileevent polling. Added documentation and fixed the test
957 * win/tclWinSock.c: Modified 8.1.0 version of the Win32 socket
958 driver to move the handling of the socket event window in a
959 separate thread. It also turned out that Win95 & Win98 were, in
960 some cases, getting multiple FD_ACCEPTs but only handling one.
961 Added a count for the FD_ACCEPT to take care of this. Tested on
962 NT4 SP3, NT4 SP4, Win95, and Win98.
963 [Bug: 2178 2256 2259 2329 2323 2355]
965 1999-07-21 <jpeek@scriptics.com>
967 * README: Small tweaks to clean up typos and wording.
969 1999-07-20 Melissa Hirschl <hershey@matisse.scriptics.com>
971 * generic/tclInitScript.h:
972 * unix/tclUnixInit.c: merged code with 8.0.5. We now use an
973 intermediate global tcl var "tclDefaultLibrary" to keep the
974 "tcl_library" var from being set by the default value in the
975 Makefile. Also fixed a bug in which caused the value of
976 TCL_LIBRARY env var to be ignored.
977 * unix/tclWinInit.c: just updated some comments.
979 1999-07-19 Melissa Hirschl <hershey@matisse.scriptics.com>
981 * library/http2.1/http.tcl: updated -useragent text to say version
984 1999-07-16 <redman@scriptics.com>
987 * generic/tclDecls.h:
988 * generic/tclStubInit.c: Add Tcl_SetNotifier to stub table.
992 * unix/tcl.m4: Add check for Alpha/Linux to correct the IEEE
993 floating flag to the compiler, should be -mieee. Patch from Don
996 * tools/tcl.hpj.in: Change version number of .cnt file referenced
999 1999-07-15 <redman@scriptics.com>
1001 * tools/tcl.wse.in: Fixed naming of target files for Windows.
1003 1999-07-14 <jpeek@scriptics.com>
1005 * doc/re_syntax.n: Deleted sentence as suggested by Scott S.
1007 1999-07-12 <jpeek@scriptics.com>
1009 * doc/re_syntax.n: Removed two notes to myself (oops), cleaned
1010 up wording, fixed changebars, made two examples easier to read.
1012 1999-07-11 <redman@scriptics.com>
1014 * win/makefile.vc: Since the makefile.vc should continue to work
1015 while we're working out bugs/issues in the new TEA-style
1016 autoconf/configure/gmake build mechanism for Windows, the version
1017 numbers of the Tcl libraries need to remain in sync. Modified the
1018 version numbers in the makefile to reflect the change to 8.2b1.
1020 1999-07-09 <redman@scriptics.com>
1022 * win/configure.in: Eval DLLSUFFIX, LIBSUFFIX, and EXESUFFIX in
1023 the configure script so that substitutions get expanded before
1024 being placed in the Makefile. The "d" portion for debug libraries
1025 and DLLs was not being set properly.
1027 1999-07-08 <stanton@scriptics.com>
1029 * tests/string.test:
1030 * generic/tclCmdMZ.c: Fixed bug in string range bounds checking
1033 1999-07-08 Jennifer Hom <jenn@scriptics.com>
1036 * library/tcltest1.0/tcltest.tcl: Removed -asidefromdir and
1037 -relateddir flags, removed unused ::tcltest::dotests proc, cleaned
1038 up implementation of core file checking, and fixed the code that
1039 checks for 1-letter flag abbreviations.
1041 1999-07-08 <stanton@scriptics.com>
1043 * win/Makefile.in: Added tcltest target so runtest works
1044 properly. Added missing names to the clean/distclean targets.
1047 * generic/rege_dfa.c: Applied fix supplied by Henry Spencer for
1048 bug in DFA state caching under lookahead conditions. [Bug: 2318]
1050 1999-07-07 <stanton@scriptics.com>
1052 * doc/fconfigure.n: Clarified default buffering behavior for the
1053 standard channels. [Bug: 2335]
1055 1999-07-06 <redman@scriptics.com>
1057 * win/tclWinSerial.c: New implementation of serial port driver
1058 from Rolf Shroedter (Rolf.Schroedter@dlr.de) that allows more than
1059 one byte to be read from the port. Implemented using polling
1060 instead of threads, there is a max. 10ms latency between checking the
1061 port for file events. [Bug: 1980 2217]
1063 1999-07-06 <welch@scriptics.com>
1065 * library/http2.0/http.tcl: Fixed the -timeout option so it
1066 handles timeouts that occur during connection attempts to
1067 hosts that are down (the only case that really matters!)
1069 1999-07-03 <welch@scriptics.com>
1072 * generic/tcl.decls:
1073 * generic/tclIO.c: Added a new variant of the "Trf patch"
1074 from Andreas Kupres that adds new C APIs Tcl_StackChannel,
1075 Tcl_UnstackChannel, and Tcl_GetStackedChannel.
1077 1999-07-03 <welch@scriptics.com>
1079 * generic/tclNotify.c:
1080 * unix/tclUnixNotfy.c:
1082 * unix/tclXtNotify.c:
1083 * win/tclWinNotify.c:
1084 * mac/tclMacNotify.c: Added Tcl_SetNotifier and the associated
1085 hook points in the notifiers to be able to replace the notifier
1086 calls at runtime The Xt notifier and test program use this hook.
1088 1999-07-03 <welch@scriptics.com>
1090 * generic/tclParse.c: Changed parsing of variable names to
1091 allow empty array names. Now "$(foo)" is a variable reference!
1092 Previous you had to use something like $::(foo), which is slower.
1093 This change is requested by Jean-Luc Fontaine for his STOOOP
1096 1999-07-01 <redman@scriptics.com>
1098 * generic/tclCmdAH.c:
1099 * generic/tclFCmd.c: Call TclStat instead of TclpStat in order to
1100 allow Tcl_Stat hooks to work properly.
1102 1999-06-29 Jennifer Hom <jenn@scriptics.com>
1104 * library/tcltest1.0/pkgIndex.tcl:
1105 * library/tcltest1.0/tcltest.tcl:
1107 * tests/all.tcl: Added -preservecore, -limitconstraints, -help,
1108 -file, -notfile, -relateddir and -asidefromdir flags to the
1109 tcltest package along with exported proc
1110 ::tcltest::getMatchingFiles. The documentation was modified to
1111 match and all.tcl was modified to use the new functionality
1112 instead of implementing -file itself.
1114 1999-06-28 <redman@scriptics.com>
1116 * generic/tclIndexObj.c:
1118 * tests/binary.test:
1119 * tests/winDde.test: Applied patch from Peter Hardie (with
1120 changes) to fix problem with Tcl_GetIndexFromObj() when the key
1121 being passed is the empty string. It used to match "" and return
1122 TCL_OK, but it should have returned TCL_ERROR instead. Added test
1123 case to "binary" and "dde" commands to check the behavior. Added
1124 documentation note as well.
1126 1999-06-26 <redman@scriptics.com>
1128 * win/tclWinDde.c: Applied patch from Peter Hardie to add poke
1129 command to dde. Also rev'd version of dde package to 1.1.
1132 1999-06-25 Jennifer Hom <jenn@scriptics.com>
1136 * library/tcltest1.0/pkgIndex.tcl:
1137 * library/tcltest1.0/tcltest.tcl:
1138 * library/tcltest1.0: Added initial implementation of the Tcl test
1139 harness package. This package was based on the defs.tcl file that
1140 was part of the tests directory. Reversed the way that tests were
1141 evaluated to fix a problem with false passes.
1143 * doc/tcltest.n: Added documentation for the tcltest package.
1147 * tests/all.tcl: Modified all test files (tests/*.test) and
1148 all.tcl to use the new tcltest package and removed references to
1149 the defs.tcl file. Modified the README file to point to the man
1152 1999-06-25 <stanton@scriptics.com>
1155 * generic/regexec.c: Fixed bugs in non-greedy quantifiers.
1157 1999-06-23 <jpeek@scriptics.com>
1164 * doc/regsub.n: Moved information about syntax of 8.1 regular
1165 expressions from regexp(n) manpage into new re_syntax(n) page.
1166 Added pointers from other manpages to new re_syntax(n) page.
1168 1999-06-23 <stanton@scriptics.com>

1177 * generic/tclUniData.c:
1179 * doc/string.n: Updated Unicode character tables to reflect latest
1180 Unicode 2.1 data. Also rationalized "regexp" and "string is"
1181 definitions of character classes.
1183 1999-06-21 <stanton@scriptics.com>
1185 * unix/tclUnixThrd.c (TclpThreadCreate): Fixed memory leak where
1186 thread attributes were not being released. [Bug: 2254]
1188 1999-06-17 <stanton@scriptics.com>
1190 * tests/regexp.test:
1191 * generic/tclCmdMZ.c:
1192 * generic/tclCmdIL.c: Changed to use new regexp interfaces. Added
1193 -expanded, -line, -linestop, and -lineanchor switches to regsub.
1195 * doc/RegExp.3: Documented the new regexp interfaces and
1196 the compile/execute flags.
1198 * generic/tclTest.c:
1199 * generic/tclRegexp.h:
1200 * generic/tclRegexp.c:
1202 * generic/tcl.decls: Renamed Tcl_RegExpMatchObj to
1203 Tcl_RegExpExecObj and added a new Tcl_RegExpMatchObj that is
1204 equivalent to Tcl_RegExpMatch. Added public macros for the regexp
1205 compile/execute flags. Changed to store either an object pointer
1206 or a string pointer in the TclRegexp structure. Changed to avoid
1207 adding a reference to the object or copying the string.
1209 * generic/regcomp.c: lint
1213 * generic/regc_lex.c: Added REG_BOSONLY flag to allow Expect to
1214 iterate through a string an only find matches that start at the
1215 current position within the string.

1227 * generic/tclVar.c (Tcl_VariableObjCmd): fixed premature increment
1228 in loop that was causing out-of-bounds reads on array "varName".
1230 1999-06-16 <stanton@scriptics.com>
1232 * tests/execute.test:
1233 * generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): Fixed crash caused by
1234 a bug in INST_LOAD_SCALAR1 where the scalar index was read as
1235 a signed 1 byte value instead of unsigned. [Bug: 2243]
1237 1999-06-14 Melissa Hirschl <hershey@matisse.scriptics.com>
1240 * test/stringObj.test
1244 * generic/tclStringObj.c:
1245 Merged String and Unicode object types. Added new functions to
1246 the puplic API: Tcl_NewUnicodeObj, Tcl_SetUnicodeObj,
1247 Tcl_GetUnicode, Tcl_GetUniChar, Tcl_GetCharLength, Tcl_GetRange,
1248 Tcl_AppendUnicodeToObj.
1250 1999-06-09 <stanton@scriptics.com>
1252 * generic/tclUnicodeObj.c: Lots of cleanup and simplification.
1253 Fixed several memory bugs. Added TclAppendUnicodeToObj.
1255 * generic/tclInt.h: Added declarations for various Unicode string
1258 * generic/tclRegexp.c:
1259 * generic/tclCmdMZ.c: Changed to use new Unicode string interfaces
1260 for better performance.
1262 * generic/tclRegexp.h:
1263 * generic/tclRegexp.c:
1265 * generic/tcl.decls: Added Tcl_RegExpMatchObj and
1266 Tcl_RegExpGetInfo calls to access lower level regexp API. These
1267 features are needed by Expect. This is a preliminary
1268 implementation pending final review and cleanup.
1270 * generic/tclCmdMZ.c:
1271 * tests/string.test: Fixed bug where string map failed on null
1274 * generic/regexec.c:
1275 * unix/tclUnixNotfy.c: lint
1277 * tools/genStubs.tcl: Changed to always write output in LF mode.
1279 1999-06-08 <stanton@scriptics.com>
1281 * win/tclWinSock.c: Rolled back to the 8.1.0 implementation
1282 because of serious problems with the new driver. Basically no
1283 incoming socket connections would be reported to a server port.
1284 The 8.1.1 code needs to be redesigned and fixed correctly.
1286 1999-06-07 Melissa Hirschl <hershey@matisse.scriptics.com>
1288 * tests/string.test:
1289 * generic/tclVar.c (Tcl_SetVar2Ex):
1290 * generic/tclStringObj.c (Tcl_AppendObjToObj):
1291 * generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_StringObjCmd): optimized the string
1292 index, string length, string range, and append command in cases
1293 where the object's internal rep is a bytearray. Objects with
1294 other internal reps are converted to have the new unicode internal
1300 * tests/unicode.test:
1303 * generic/tclUnicodeObj.c: added a new object type to store the
1304 unicode representation of a string.
1306 * generic/tclTestObj.c: added the objtype option to the testobj
1307 command. This option returns the name of the type of internal rep
1310 1999-06-04 <stanton@scriptics.com>
1313 * win/Makefile.in: Windows build now handles static/dynamic
1314 debug/nodebug builds and supports the standard targets using
1315 Cygwin user tools plus GNU make and autoconf.
1317 1999-06-03 <stanton@scriptics.com>
1319 * generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_StringObjCmd):
1320 * tests/string.test: Fixed bug where string equal/compare -nocase
1321 reported wrong result on null strings. [Bug: 2138]
1323 1999-06-02 <stanton@scriptics.com>
1325 * generic/tclUtf.c (Tcl_UtfNcasecmp): Fixed incorrect computation
1326 of relative ordering. [Bug: 2135]
1328 1999-06-01 <stanton@scriptics.com>
1330 * unix/configure.in: Fixed various small configure.in patches
1331 submitted by Jan Nijtmans. [Bug: 2121]
1334 * generic/regc_color.c:
1335 * generic/regc_cvec.c:
1336 * generic/regc_lex.c:
1337 * generic/regc_locale.c:
1338 * generic/regc_nfa.c:

1343 * generic/regerrs.h:
1345 * generic/regexec.c:
1346 * generic/regfree.c:
1347 * generic/regfronts.c:
1348 * generic/regguts.h:
1349 * generic/tclCmdMZ.c:
1350 * generic/tclRegexp.c:
1351 * generic/tclRegexp.h:
1352 * generic/tclTest.c: Applied Henry Spencer's latest regexp patches
1353 that fix an infinite loop bug and add support for testing whether
1354 a string could match with additional input. [Bug: 2117]
1356 1999-05-28 <stanton@scriptics.com>
1358 * generic/tclObj.c: Changed to eliminate use of isupper/tolower in
1359 favor of the Unicode versions.
1362 * win/configure.in: Added preliminary TEA implementation.
1364 * win/tclWinDde.c: Fixed bug where dde calls were being passed an
1365 invalid dde handle because Initialize had not been called.
1368 1999-05-26 <redman@scriptic.com>
1370 * generic/tclThreadTest.c: Fixed race condition in testthread
1371 code that showed up in the WinNT test suite intermittently.
1373 * win/tclWinSock.c: Fixed a hang in the WinNT socket driver, wake
1374 up the socket thread every 100ms to check for events on the
1375 sockets that did not wake up the thread (race condition).
1377 1999-05-24 <stanton@scriptics.com>
1379 * tools/genStubs.tcl: Changed to allow a list of platforms instead
1380 of just one at a time.
1382 * generic/tcl.decls:
1383 * generic/tclCmdMZ.c:
1384 * generic/tclDecls.h:
1385 * generic/tclInt.decls:
1386 * generic/tclIntDecls.h:
1387 * generic/tclPort.h:
1388 * generic/tclStubInit.c:
1389 * generic/tclStubLib.c: Various header file related changes and other
1390 lint to try to get the Mac builds working.
1392 1999-05-21 <redman@scriptics.com>
1394 * win/tclWinPipe.c: Fix bug when launching command.com on
1395 Win95/98. Need to wait for the procInfo.hProcess of the process that
1396 was created, not the hProcess of the current process. [Bug: 2105]
1398 1999-05-20 <redman@scriptics.com>
1400 * library/init.tcl: Add the directory where the executable is, and
1401 the ../lib directory relative to that, to the auto_path variable.
1403 1999-05-19 <stanton@scriptics.com>
1405 Merged in various changes submitted by Jeff Hobbs:
1407 * generic/tcl.decls:
1408 * generic/tclUtf.c: Added Tcl_UniCharIs* functions for control,
1409 graph, print, and punct classes.
1411 * generic/tclUtil.c:
1412 * doc/StrMatch.3: Added Tcl_StringCaseMatch() implementation to
1413 support case-insensitive globbing.
1417 * tests/string.test:
1418 * generic/tclCmdMZ.c: Added additional character class tests,
1419 added -nocase switch to "string match", changed string first/last
1422 1999-05-19 <redman@scriptics.com>
1424 * generic/tcl.h: Add extern "C" block around entire header file for
1425 C++ compilers to fix linkage issues. Submitted by Don Porter and
1428 * generic/tclRegexp.c: Fix bug when the regexp cache is empty
1429 and an empty pattern is used in regexp ( such as {} or "" ).
1431 1999-05-18 <stanton@scriptics.com>
1433 * win/tclWinChan.c: Modified initialization code to avoid
1434 inherenting closed or invalid channels. If the standard input is
1435 anything other than a console, file, serial port, or pipe, then we
1436 fall back to the standard Tk window console.
1438 1999-05-14 <stanton@scriptics.com>
1440 * generic/tclCmdAH.c (Tcl_ForObjCmd): Fixed crash caused by
1441 failure to reset the result before evaluating the test
1444 1999-05-14 <surles@scriptics.com>
1446 * generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_CreateInterp): Added introspection
1447 variable for threaded interps. If the interp was compiled with
1448 threads enabled, the tcl_platform(threaded) variable will exist.
1450 1999-05-14 <redman@scriptics.com>
1452 * generic/tclDate.c: Applied patch to fix 100-year and 400-year
1453 boundaries in leap year code, from Isaac Hollander. [Bug: 2066]
1455 1999-05-13 <stanton@scriptics.com>
1458 * unix/tclAppInit.c: Minor cleanup related to Xt notifier.
1460 * unix/tclUnixInit.c (TclpSetInitialEncodings): Tcl now looks for
1461 an encoding subfield in the LANG/LC_ALL variables in cases where
1462 the locale is not found in the locale table. Ensure that
1463 setlocale() is called at least once so X11 will initialize
1464 properly. Also, forces the LC_NUMERIC locale to be "C" so numeric
1465 processing in scripts is not affected by the current locale
1466 setting. [Bug: 1989]
1468 * generic/tclRegexp.c: Increased per-thread regexp cache to 30
1469 slots. This seems to be about the right number for larger
1470 applications like exmh. [Bug: 1063]
1472 1999-05-12 <stanton@scriptics.com>
1474 * doc/tclsh.1: Updated references to rc script names to accurately
1475 reflect the platform differences on Windows.
1477 * tests/regexp.test:
1479 * generic/tclBasic.c:
1480 * generic/tclRegexp.h:
1481 * generic/tclRegexp.c: Replaced the per-interpreter regexp cache
1482 with a per-thread cache. Changed the Regexp object to take
1483 advantage of this extra cache. Added a reference count to the
1484 TclRegexp type so regexps can be shared by multiple objects.
1485 Removed the per-interp regexp cache from the interpreter. Now
1486 regexps can be used with no need for an interpreter. [Bug: 1063]
1488 * win/tclWinInit.c (TclpSetVariables): Avoid calling GetUserName
1489 if the value can be determined from the USERNAME environment
1490 variable. GetUserName is very slow.
1492 1999-05-07 <stanton@scriptics.com>
1494 * win/winDumpExts.c:
1495 * win/makefile.vc: Removed incorrect patch. [Bug: 1998]
1497 * generic/tcl.decls: Replaced const with CONST.
1499 * generic/tclResult.c (Tcl_AppendResultVA):
1500 * generic/tclStringObj.c (Tcl_AppendStringsToObjVA): Fixed to copy
1501 arglist using memcpy instead of assignment so it works properly on
1504 * generic/tclLoadNone.c: Updated to use current interfaces, added
1505 TclpUnloadFile. [Bug: 2003]
1507 * win/winDumpExts.c:
1508 * win/makefile.vc: Changed to emit library name in defs
1511 * unix/configure.in: Added fix for OS/390. [Bug: 1976]
1513 1999-05-06 <stanton@scriptics.com>
1515 * tests/string.test:
1516 * generic/tclCmdMZ.c:
1517 * doc/string.n: Fixed bug in string equal/compare code when using
1518 -length option. Cleaned up docs a bit more.
1520 * tests/http.test: Unset "data" array before running tests to
1521 avoid failures due to previous tests.
1528 * tests/lindex.test:
1529 * tests/linsert.test:
1530 * tests/lrange.test:
1531 * tests/lreplace.test:
1532 * tests/string.test:
1534 * generic/tclUtil.c:
1535 * generic/tclCmdMZ.c: Replaced "string icompare/iequal" with
1536 -nocase and -length switches to "string compare/equal". Added a
1537 -nocase option to "string map". Changed index syntax to allow
1538 integer or end?-integer? instead of a full expression. This is
1539 much simpler with safeTcl scripts since it avoids double
1540 substitution issues.
1543 * generic/tclStubInit.c:
1544 * generic/tclDecls.h:
1546 * generic/tcl.decls: Added Tcl_UtfNcmp and Tcl_UtfNcasecmp.
1548 1999-05-05 <stanton@scriptics.com>
1550 * win/makefile.vc: Added encoding directory to install-libraries
1553 1999-05-03 <stanton@scriptics.com>
1557 * tests/string.test:
1558 * generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_StringObjCmd): Changed "string length"
1559 to avoid regenerating the string rep of a ByteArray object.
1564 * tests/lindex.test:
1565 * tests/linsert.test:
1566 * tests/lrange.test:
1567 * tests/lreplace.test:
1568 * tests/string.test:
1569 * generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_StringObjCmd):
1570 * generic/tclUtil.c (TclGetIntForIndex): Applied Jeff Hobbs's
1571 string patch which includes the following changes [Bug: 1845]:
1573 - string compare now takes optional length arg (for strncmp
1576 - added string equal (just a few lines of code blended
1577 in with string compare)
1579 - added string icompare/iequal for case-insensitive comparisons
1581 - string index's index can now be ?end[+-]?expression
1582 I made this change in the private TclGetIntForIndex,
1583 which means that the list commands also benefit, as
1584 well as string range, et al.
1586 - added [string repeat string count]
1587 Repeats given string number of times
1589 - added string replace, string equiv to lreplace
1590 (quasi opposite of string range):
1591 string replace first last ?string?
1592 Example of use, replacing end of string with ...
1593 should the string be more than 16 chars long:
1594 string replace $string 16 end "..."
1595 This just returns the string len < 16, so it
1596 will only affect the long strings.
1598 - added optional first and last args to string to*
1599 This allows you to just affect certain regions of
1600 a string with the command (like just capping the
1601 first letter). I found the original totitle to
1602 be too draconian to be useful.
1604 - added [string map charMap string]
1605 where charMap is a {from to from to} list that equates to
1606 what one might get from [array get]. Each and
1607 can be multiple chars (or none at all). For Tcl/CGI users,
1608 this is a MAJOR speed booster.
1610 * generic/tclParse.c (Tcl_ParseCommand): Changed to avoid
1611 modifying eval'ed strings that are already null terminated.
1614 * tests/binary.test:
1615 * generic/tclBinary.c (DupByteArrayInternalRep): Fixed bug where
1616 type was not being set in duplicated object. [Bug: 1975, 2047]
1618 1999-04-30 <stanton@scriptics.com>
1620 * Changed version to 8.1.1.
1622 1999-04-30 <stanton@scriptics.com>
1624 * Merged changes from 8.1.0 branch:
1626 * generic/tclParse.c: Fixed memory leak in CommandComplete.
1628 * generic/tclPlatDecls.h:
1629 * generic/tclIntPlatDecls.h:
1630 * generic/tclIntDecls.h:
1631 * generic/tclDecls.h:
1632 * tools/genStubs.tcl: Added 'extern "C" {}' block around the stub
1633 table pointer declaration so the stub library can be used from
1636 * Lots of documentation and other release engineering fixes.
1638 1999-04-28 <stanton@scriptics.com>
1640 * mac/tclMacResource.c:
1641 * generic/tclListObj.c:
1643 * generic/tclStringObj.c: Changed to avoid freeing the string
1644 representation before freeing the internal rep. This helps with
1645 debugging since the string rep will still be valid when the free
1648 1999-04-27 <stanton@scriptics.com>
1650 * generic/tclLiteral.c (TclHideLiteral): Fixed so hidden literals
1651 get duplicated to avoid accidental sharing in the global object
1654 1999-04-23 <stanton@scriptics.com>
1656 * generic/tclStubInit.c:
1657 * tools/genStubs.tcl: Changed to avoid the need for forward
1658 declarations in stub initializers.
1660 1999-04-23 <stanton@scriptics.com>
1662 * library/encoding/koi8-r.enc:
1663 * tools/encoding/koi8-r.txt: Added support for the koi8-r Cyrillic
1664 encoding. [Bug: 1771]
1666 1999-04-22 <stanton@scriptics.com>
1669 * win/tclWin32Dll.c: Changed uses of "try" to "__try", since that
1670 is the actual keyword. This eliminates the need for some -D flags
1673 * generic/tclPort.h: Added include of tcl.h since it defines
1674 various Windows macros that are needed before deciding which
1675 platform porting file to use.
1677 * generic/tclEvent.c: lint
1679 * win/tclWinInit.c (TclpInitPlatform): Added call to TclWinInit
1680 when building a static library since DllMain will not be invoked.
1681 This could break old code that explicitly called TclWinInit, but
1682 should be simpler in the long run.
1684 1999-04-22 Scott Stanton <stanton@scriptics.com>
1687 * generic/tclInt.decls:
1688 * generic/tclCompile.c: Added TclSetByteCodeFromAny that takes a
1689 hook procedure to invoke after compilation but before the byte
1690 codes are emitted. This makes it possible to do postprocessing on
1691 the compiled byte codes before the ByteCode is generated.
1693 * generic/tclLiteral.c: Added TclHideLiteral and TclAddLiteralObj
1694 to make it possible to create local unshared literal objects.
1697 * unix/tclUnixInit.c: Changed initial search path to match that
1698 found used by tcl_findLibrary.
1700 1999-04-22 <redman@scriptics.com>
1703 * win/tclWinSock.c: Added code to use WinSock 2.0 API on NT to
1704 avoid creating a window to handle sockets. API not available on
1705 Win95 and needs to be fixed on Win98, until then continue to use
1706 the older (window-based) scheme on those two OSes.
1708 1999-04-15 <stanton@scriptics.com>
1710 * Merged 8.1 back into the main trunk
1712 1999-04-13 <stanton@scriptics.com>
1714 * library/encoding/gb2312.enc:
1715 * library/encoding/euc-cn.enc:
1716 * tools/encoding/gb2312.txt:
1717 * tools/encoding/cp950.txt:
1718 * tools/encoding/Makefile: Restored the double byte definition of
1719 GB2312 and added the EUC-CN encoding. EUC-CN is a variant of
1720 GB2312 that shifts the characters into bytes with the high bit set
1721 and includes ASCII as a subset. [Bug: 632]
1723 1999-04-13 <redman@scriptics.com>
1725 * win/tclWinSock.c: Apply patch to allow write access to a socket
1726 if FD_WRITE is sent but FD_CONNECT is not. Some strange problem
1727 with either Win32 or a socket driver. [Bug: 1664 1776]
1729 1999-04-09 <redman@scriptics.com>
1731 * unix/tclUnixNotfy.c: Fixed notifier deadlock situation when the
1732 pipe used to talk back notifier thread is filled with data. When
1733 calling the write() function to feed data down that pipe, unlock
1734 the notifierMutex to allow the notifier to wake up again. Found
1735 as a result of the focus.test for Tk hanging. [Bug: 1700]
1737 1999-04-06 <stanton@scriptics.com>
1739 * tests/unixNotfy.test: Fixed hang in tests when built with thread
1742 * tests/httpold.test: Fixed broken test that didn't wait long
1743 enough for events to arrive.
1745 * tests/unixInit.test: Fixed race condition in test.
1747 * tests/unixInit.test:
1748 * tests/fileName.test: Minor test nits.
1750 * unix/tclUnixInit.c (TclpSetInitialEncodings): Fixed bad initial
1753 1999-04-06 <surles@scriptics.com>
1756 * generic/tclEnv.c: Moved the "array set" C level code into a
1757 common routine (TclArraySet). The TclSetupEnv routine now uses
1758 this API to create an env array w/ no elements.
1761 * generic/tclWinInit.h:
1762 * generic/tclUnixInit.h:
1763 * generic/tclInt.h: Made the Env module I18N compliant. Changed the
1764 FindVariable routine to TclpFindVariable, that now does a case
1765 insensitive string comparison on Windows, and not on UNIX. [Bug:
1768 1999-04-05 <stanton@scriptics.com>
1770 * tests/io.test: Minor test cleanup.
1772 * generic/tclEncoding.c (Tcl_CreateEncoding): Minor lint to make
1773 it easier to compile on Digital-unix. [Bug: 1659]
1775 * unix/configure.in:
1776 * unix/tclUnixPort.h: Applied patch for OS/390 to handle lack of
1777 sys/param.h. [Bug: 1725]
1779 * unix/configure.in: Fixed BSD/OS 4.* configuration to support
1780 shared libraries properly. [Bug: 1730]
1782 1999-04-05 <redman@scriptics.com>
1784 * win/tclWinDde.c: decrease timeout value for DDE calls to 30k
1787 * generic/tcl.decls:
1789 * generic/tclDecls.h:
1790 * generic/tclInt.decls:
1792 * generic/tclIntDecls.h:
1793 * generic/tclStubInit.c:
1794 * generic/tclUtil.c: Added more functions to the Tcl stubs table,
1795 including all Tcl_ functions not already in it (except Cmd
1796 functions) and Tcl_GetCwd() and Tcl_Chdir() (new functions).
1800 * generic/tclBasic.c:
1801 * library/safe.tcl: The encoding command is not safe as-is, so
1802 create a safe alias to mask out the "encoding system <name>" but
1803 allow all other uses including "encoding system". Added test cases
1804 and updated the man page for Safe Tcl.
1806 1999-04-05 <stanton@scriptics.com>
1808 * tests/winTime.test:
1809 * win/tclWinTime.c: Fixed crash in clock command that occurred
1810 when manipulating negative time values in timezones east of
1811 GMT. [Bug: 1142, 1458]
1813 * tests/platform.test:
1814 * tests/fileName.test: Fixed broken tests.
1816 * generic/tclFileName.c: Moved global regexps into thread local
1819 * tests/socket.test: Changed so tests don't reuse sockets,
1820 since Windows is slow to release sockets.
1822 * win/tclWinConsole.c:
1824 * win/tclWinSerial.c: Fixed race condition where background
1825 threads were terminated while they still held a lock in the
1828 1999-04-02 <stanton@scriptics.com>
1830 * tests/http.test: Fixed bad test initialization code.
1832 * generic/tclThreadTest.c (ThreadExitProc): Fixed bug where static
1833 memory was being returned instead of a dynamically allocated
1834 result in error cases.
1836 1999-04-02 <redman@scriptics.com>
1842 * win/tclWinDde.c: Add new DDE package, code removed from Tk now
1843 separated into its own package. Changed DDE-based send code into
1844 "dde eval" command. Can be loaded into tclsh (not just wish).
1847 1999-04-02 <stanton@scriptics.com>
1850 * tests/for-old.test:
1852 * tests/foreach.test:
1853 * tests/format.test:
1854 * tests/httpold.test:
1857 * tests/interp.test:
1858 * tests/while.test: Added some tests for known bugs (marked with
1859 knownBug constraint), and cleaned up a few bad tests.
1861 * generic/regc_locale.c:
1862 * generic/regcustom.h:
1863 * generic/tcl.decls:
1864 * generic/tclCmdIL.c:
1865 * generic/tclCmdMZ.c:
1867 * generic/tclRegexp.c:
1868 * generic/tclScan.c:
1869 * generic/tclTest.c:
1872 * win/tclWinFile.c: Made various Unicode utility functions
1873 public. The following functions were made public and added to the
1875 Tcl_UtfToUniCharDString, Tcl_UniCharToUtfDString,
1876 Tcl_UniCharLen, Tcl_UniCharNcmp, Tcl_UniCharIsAlnum,
1877 Tcl_UniCharIsAlpha, Tcl_UniCharIsDigit, Tcl_UniCharIsLower,
1878 Tcl_UniCharIsSpace, Tcl_UniCharIsUpper, Tcl_UniCharIsWordChar
1880 1999-04-01 <stanton@scriptics.com>
1882 * tests/registry.test:
1883 * win/tclWinReg.c: Internationalized the registry code. It now
1884 uses Unicode interfaces on NT. [Bug: 1197]
1887 * generic/tclParse.c: Fixed crash due to multiple frees in parser
1888 during error cleanup when parsing commands with more tokens than
1889 will fit in the static area of the parse structure. [Bug: 1681]
1891 * generic/tclInt.h: Removed duplicate declarations.
1893 * generic/tclInt.decls:
1894 * generic/tcl.decls: Added Tcl_WinUtfToTChar and Tcl_WinTCharToUtf
1895 to the tclPlat table.
1897 1999-04-01 <redman@scriptics.com>
1899 * generic/tcl.decls:
1901 * generic/tclBasic.c:
1902 * generic/tclDecls.h:
1903 * generic/StubInit.c:
1904 * tools/genStubs.tcl:
1906 * win/makefile.vc: Applied patch from Jan Nijtmans to fix Ultrix
1907 multiple symbol definition problem. Now, even Tcl includes a copy
1908 of the Tcl stub library. Also fixed TCL_MEM_DEBUG mode (for Tk).
1910 1999-03-31 <redman@scriptics.com>
1912 * win/tclWinConsole.c: WinNT has a bug when reading a single
1913 character from the console. Rewrote the code for the console to
1914 read an entire line at a time using the reader thread.
1916 1999-03-30 <stanton@scriptics.com>
1918 * unix/Makefile.in: Removed trailing backslash that broke the
1921 * unix/tclUnixInit.c (TclpSetInitialEncodings): Changed to avoid
1922 calling setlocale(). We now look directly at env(LANG) and
1923 env(LC_CTYPE) instead. [Bug: 1636]
1925 * generic/tclFileName.c:
1926 * generic/tclDecls.h:
1927 * generic/tcl.decls: Removed CONST from Tcl_JoinPath and
1928 Tcl_TranslateFileName because it changes the signature of
1929 Tcl_JoinPath in an incompatible manner.
1932 * generic/tclLoad.c (TclFinalizeLoad):
1933 * generic/tclEvent.c (Tcl_Finalize): Defer unloading of loadable
1934 modules until all exit handlers have been invoked.
1935 [Bug: 998, 1273, 1573, 1593]
1937 1999-03-29 <stanton@scriptics.com>
1939 * generic/tclFileName.c:
1940 * generic/tclDecls.h:
1941 * generic/tcl.decls: Added CONST to Tcl_JoinPath and
1942 Tcl_TranslateFileName.

1953 * generic/tclIntDecls.h:
1954 * generic/tclPlatDecls.h:
1955 * generic/tclIntPlatDecls.h: Removed the stub functions and
1956 changed the stub macros to just use the name without params. Pass
1957 &tclStubs into the interp (don't use tclStubsPtr because of
1958 collisions with the stubs on Solaris).
1960 1999-03-27 <redman@scriptics.com>
1962 * win/makefile.bc: Removed makefile for Borland compiler, no
1965 1999-03-26 <redman@scriptics.com>
1967 * win/tclWinSerial.c:
1968 * win/tclWinConsole.c:
1969 * win/tclWinPipe.c: Don't close the Win32 handle for a channel if
1970 it's a stdio handle (GetStdHandle()) during shutdown of a thread
1971 to prevent it from destroying the stdio of other threads.
1973 1999-03-26 <suresh@scriptics.com>
1976 --nameble-shared is now the default and build Tcl as a shared
1977 library; specify --disable-shared to build a static Tcl library
1980 1999-03-25 <stanton@scriptics.com>
1982 * tests/interp.test:
1983 * generic/tclInterp.c (AliasObjCmd): Changed so aliases are
1984 invoked at current scope in the target interpreter instead of at
1985 the global scope. This was an incompatibility introduced in 8.1
1986 that is being removed. [Bug: 1153, 1556]
1988 * library/encoding/big5.enc:
1989 * library/encoding/gb2312.enc:
1990 * tools/encoding/big5.enc:
1991 * tools/encoding/gb2312.enc: Added ASCII to big5 and gb2312
1992 encodings. [Bug: 632]
1994 * generic/tclPkg.c (Tcl_PkgRequireEx): Fixed broken clientData
1995 initialization in package code.
1997 * unix/Makefile.in (dist): Added tcl.decls and tclInt.decls to
1998 source distribution. [Bug: 1571]
2000 * doc/Thread.3: Updated documentation of Tcl_MutexLock to indicate
2001 that the recursive locking behavior is undefined. On Windows, it
2002 does not block, on Unix it deadlocks. [Bug: 1275]
2004 1999-03-24 <stanton@scriptics.com>
2006 * tests/execute.test:
2007 * generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): Fixed expression code
2008 that incorrectly returned floating point values for integers if
2009 the internal rep happened to be a double. Now we check to see if
2010 the object has a string rep that looks like an integer before
2011 using the double internal rep. [Bug: 1516]
2013 1999-03-24 <redman@scriptics.com>
2015 * generic/tclAlloc.c:
2016 * generic/tclEncoding.c:
2017 * generic/tclProc.c:
2018 * unix/tclUnixTime.c:
2019 * win/tclWinSerial.c: Fixed compilation warnings/errors for VC++
2020 5.0 and 6.0 and HP-UX native compiler without -Aa or -Ae.
2021 [Bug: 1323 1518 1324 1583 1585 1586]
2023 * win/tclWinSock.c: Make sockets thread-safe on Windows. The
2024 current implementation uses windows to handle events on the
2025 socket, one for each thread (thread local storage). Previously,
2026 there was only one window shared between threads, which didn't
2029 1999-03-23 <stanton@scriptics.com>
2031 * tools/tcl.wse: Fixed file association to look in the right place
2032 for the wish icon. [Bug: 1544]
2034 * tests/winNotify.test:
2036 * tests/event.test: Changed to use new style conditionals.
2038 * tests/encoding.test: Fixed nonportable test.
2040 * unix/dltest/configure.in:
2041 * unix/dltest/Makefile.in: Added missing DBGX macros. [Bug: 1564]
2043 * tests/winNotify.test:
2044 * mac/tclMacNotify.c:
2045 * win/tclWinNotify.c:
2046 * unix/tclUnixNotfy.c:
2047 * generic/tclNotify.c: Added a new Tcl_ServiceModeHook interface
2048 that is invoked whenever the service mode changes. This is needed
2049 to allow the Windows notifier to create a communication window the
2050 first time Tcl is about to enter an external modal event loop
2051 instead of at startup time. This will avoid the various problems
2052 that people have been seeing where the system hangs when tclsh
2053 is running outside of the event loop. [Bug: 783]
2056 * generic/tcl.decls: Renamed TclpAlertNotifier back to
2057 Tcl_AlertNotifier since it is part of the public notifier driver
2060 1999-03-23 <redman@scriptics.com>
2062 * win/tclWinSerial.c: Fixed problem with fileevent on the serial
2063 port and nonblocking mode. Gets no longer hangs, fileevents fire
2064 whenever there is any character data on the port.
2066 * tests/winConsole.test:
2067 * win/tclWinConsole.c: Fixed problem with fileevents and gets from
2068 a console stdin. Previously, fileevents were firing before an
2069 entire line was available for reading, which meant that when you
2070 did a gets or read, it blocked (even in nonblocking mode). Now, it
2071 should work the same as Unix: fileevents fire when an entire line
2072 is ready, and gets and read do not block in non-blocking mode.
2073 Added an interactive test case to check for this.
2075 1999-03-22 <stanton@scriptics.com>
2078 * generic/regc_color.c: Applied regexp bug fix from Henry Spencer.
2080 1999-03-19 <redman@scriptics.com>
2082 * generic/tclCmdIL.c: Fixed the initialization of an array so that
2083 the Sun 5.0 C compiler wouldn't complain.
2085 * unix/configure.in: Added support for --enable-64bit. For now,
2086 this is only supported on Solaris 7 64bit (SunOS 5.7) using the Sun
2089 1999-03-18 <stanton@scriptics.com>
2091 * win/tclWinChan.c (TclpOpenFileChannel, Tcl_MakeFileChannel):
2092 Changed to only test for console or comm handles when the type is
2093 FILE_TYPE_CHAR to avoid useless tests on simple files. Also
2094 reordered tests so consoles are tested first as this is more
2097 * win/makefile.vc: Regularized usage of mkd and rmd and rm.
2099 * library/encoding/shiftjis.enc:
2100 * tools/encoding/shiftjis.txt: Missing/incorrect characters in
2101 shift-jis table. [Bug: 1008, 1526]
2103 * generic/tclInt.decls:
2104 * generic/tcl.decls: Eliminated use of "string" and "list" from
2105 argument lists to avoid conflicts with C++ STL. [Bug: 1181]
2107 * win/tclWinFile.c (TclpMatchFiles): Changed to ignore the
2108 FS_CASE_IS_PRESERVED bit and always return exactly what we get
2111 1999-03-17 <stanton@GASPODE>
2113 * win/README.binary:
2115 * unix/configure.in:
2117 * README: Updated version to 8.1b3.
2119 1999-03-14 <stanton@GASPODE>
2121 * win/tclWinConsole.c:
2123 * win/tclWinSerial.c: Changed so channel drivers wait for the
2124 reader/writer threads to exit before returning during a close
2125 operation. This ensures that the main thread is the last thread
2126 to exit, so the process return value is set properly.
2128 * generic/tclIntDecls.h:
2129 * generic/tclIntPlatDecls.h:
2130 * generic/tclIntPlatStubs.c:
2131 * generic/tclIntStubs.c:
2132 * generic/tclPlatDecls.h:
2133 * generic/tclPlatStubs.c:
2134 * generic/tclStubInit.c:
2135 * generic/tclStubs.c: Fixed bad eol characters.
2137 * generic/tclInt.decls: Changed "const" to "CONST" in
2138 declarations for better portability.
2140 * generic/tcl.decls: Renamed panic and panicVA to Tcl_Panic and
2141 Tcl_PanicVA in the stub files.
2143 * generic/tclInterp.c (Tcl_MakeSafe): Remove tcl_platform(user)
2146 1999-03-11 <stanton@GASPODE>
2149 * unix/configure.in: Include compat files in the stub library in
2150 addition to the main library. Compat files are now built for
2151 dynamic use in all cases.
2153 * generic/tcl.h: Changed magic number so it doesn't match the plus
2154 patch, at Jan's request.
2156 * unix/tclConfig.sh.in:
2157 * unix/dltest/Makefile.in:
2158 * unix/dltest/configure.in:

2164 * unix/dltest/pkgf.c: Changed package tests to build against the
2167 1999-03-10 <stanton@GASPODE>
2170 * generic/tcl.decls: Changed Tcl_ReleaseType from an enum to
2171 macros so it can be used in .rc files.
2172 Added Tcl_GetString.
2174 * mac/tclMacNotify.c:
2175 * generic/tclNotify.c:
2177 * win/tclWinNotify.c:
2178 * generic/tcl.h: Renamed Tcl_AlertNotifier to TclpAlertNotifier.
2180 * generic/tclInt.decls: Added TclWinAddProcess to make it possible
2181 for expect to use Tcl_WaitForPid(). This patch is from Gordon
2186 * unix/tclUnixPort.h:
2187 * generic/tclAsync.c: Added TclpAsyncMark to fix bug in async
2188 handling on Windows where async events don't wake up the event
2189 loop. This patch comes from Gordon Chaffee.
2191 * generic/tcl.decls: Fixed declarations of reserved slots.
2193 1999-03-10 <redman@scriptic.com>
2195 * generic/tclCompile.h: Ensure that the ByteCode struct is binary
2196 compatible with the version in 8.0.6.
2199 * generic/tclBasic.c: Add Tcl_GetVersion() function to the public
2200 C API to allow programs to check the version number of the Tcl
2201 library at runtime. Also added an enum to clarify the release
2202 level (alpha, beta, final).
2204 1999-03-09 <stanton@GASPODE>
2206 * Integrated changes from Tcl 8.0 including:
2208 configure patches from Jan Nijtmans
2209 rename of panic to Tcl_Panic
2211 1999-03-08 <lfb@scriptics.com>
2213 * win/tclWin32Dll.c: Removed Dll instance from thread-local
2216 1999-03-08 <stanton@GASPODE>
2218 * generic/tcl.h: Moved Tcl_Mutex, etc. macros above the inclusion
2219 of tclDecls.h to avoid macro conflicts.
2222 * generic/regc_color.c:
2223 * generic/regcomp.c:
2224 * generic/tclCmdIL.c:
2225 * generic/tclCmdAH.c:
2226 * generic/tclIOCmd.c:
2227 * generic/tclParse.c:
2228 * generic/tclStringObj.c:
2229 * unix/tclUnixNotfy.c: Cleaned up various compiler warnings,
2230 eliminated UCHAR bugs.
2232 * unix/tclUnixNotfy.c:
2233 * unix/tclUnixThrd.c:
2234 * generic/tclThreadTest.c:
2235 * mac/tclMacThrd.c: Changed TclpCondition*() to Tcl_Condition*().
2237 * INTEGRATED PATCHES FROM 8.0.6:

2254 * tools/genStubs.tcl:
2255 * unix/configure.in:
2257 * unix/tclConfig.sh.in:
2259 * win/tclWinPort.h: Added Tcl stubs implementation. There are
2260 now two new macros USE_TCL_STUBS and USE_TCL_STUB_PROCS that
2261 enable use of stubs and disable stub macros respectively. All of
2262 the public and private function declarations from tcl.h and
2263 tclInt.h have moved into the *.decls files and the *Stubs.c and
2264 *Decls.h files are generated using the genStubs.tcl script.
2267 * unix/configure.in:
2268 * unix/ldAix: Enhanced AIX shared library support.
2270 * win/tclWinSock.c: Removed a bunch of extraneous PASCAL FAR
2271 attributes from internal functions.
2273 * win/tclWinReg.c: Changed registry package to use stubs mechanism
2274 so it no longer depends on the specific version of Tcl.
2282 * generic/tclBasic.c:
2283 * generic/tclPanic.c:
2284 * generic/tclStringObj.c:
2285 * generic/tclUtil.c:
2286 * unix/mkLinks: Added va_list versions of all VARARGS
2287 functions so they can be invoked from the stub functions.
2291 * generic/tclPkg.c: Added Tcl_PkgProvideEx, Tcl_RequireEx,
2292 Tcl_PresentEx, and Tcl_PkgPresent. Added "package present"
2295 * generic/tclFileName.c:
2297 * mac/tclMacShLib.exp:
2298 * unix/tclUnixFile.c:
2299 * win/tclWinFile.c: Changed so TclGetUserHome is defined on
2300 all platforms, even though it is currently a noop on mac and
2301 windows, and renamed it to TclpGetUserHome.
2303 * generic/tclPanic.c:
2304 * generic/panic.c: Renamed panic to Tcl_Panic.
2306 1999-02-25 <redman@scriptics.com>
2308 * win/makefile.vc: Added tclWinConsole.c and tclWinSerial.c
2310 * win/tclWinConsole.c: New code to properly deal with fileevents
2311 and nonblocking mode on consoles.
2313 * win/tclWinSerial.c: New code to properly deal with fileevents
2314 and nonblocking mode on serial ports.
2317 * win/tclWinPort.h: Exported functions to allow creation of pipe
2318 channels from tclWinChan.c
2320 * win/tclWinChan.c: Check the type of a channel, including for the
2321 standard (stdin/stdout/stderr), and use the correct channel type
2322 to create the channel (file, serial, console, or pipe).
2324 1999-02-11 <stanton@GASPODE>
2328 * win/README.binary:
2330 * unix/configure.in:
2331 * mac/README: Updated version numbers to 8.1b2.
2333 1999-02-10 <stanton@GASPODE>
2335 * library/auto.tcl: Fixed auto_mkindex so it handles .tbc files.
2336 Did some general cleanup to handle bad eval statements that didn't
2342 * generic/tclVar.c: Restored Tcl_ObjGetVar2 and Tcl_ObjSetVar2
2343 from 8.0. Renamed Tcl_Get/SetObjVar2 to Tcl_GetVar2Ex and
2346 1999-02-10 <stanton@GASPODE>
2348 INTEGRATED PATCHES FROM 8.0.5b2:
2350 * test/winPipe.test: Changed to remove echoArgs.tcl temporary file
2354 * generic/tclFileName.c (TclGetExtension): Changed behavior so the
2355 split happens at the last period in the name instead of the first
2356 period of the last run of periods. So, "foo..o" is split into
2357 "foo." and ".o" now. [Bug: 1126]
2359 * win/makefile.vc: Added better support for paths with spaces in
2360 the name. Added .lib and support .dlls to the install-binaries
2361 target. Added generate of a pkgIndex.tcl script to the
2362 install-libraries target.
2365 * unix/tclAppInit.c:
2366 * mac/tclMacAppInit.c:
2367 * generic/tclTest.c: Changed some EXTERN declarations to extern
2368 since they are not defining exported interfaces. This avoids
2369 generating useless declspec() attributes and makes the windows
2372 * generic/tcl.h: Moved Tcl_AppInit declaration to end and cleared
2373 out TCL_STORAGE_CLASS so it is not declared with a declspec().
2375 * tests/interp.test:
2376 * generic/tclInterp.c (DeleteAlias): Changed to use
2377 Tcl_DeleteCommandFromToken so we handle renames properly. This
2378 avoids senseless panic. [Bug: 736]
2380 * unix/tclUnixChan.c:
2382 * doc/socket.n: Applied Gordon Chaffee's patch to handle failures
2383 during asynchronous socket connection operations. This adds a new
2384 "-error" fconfgure option to socket channels. [Bug: 893]
2386 * generic/tclProc.c:
2387 * generic/tclNamesp.c:
2389 * generic/tclCmdIL.c:
2390 * generic/tclBasic.c:
2391 * generic/tclVar.c: Applied patch from Viktor Dukhovni to
2392 rationalize TCL_LEAVE_ERR_MSG behavior when creating variables.
2394 * generic/tclVar.c: Fixed bug in namespace tail computation.
2395 Fixed bug where upvar could resurrect a namespace variable whose
2396 namespace had been deleted.
2398 * generic/tclCompile.c (TclCompileExprCmd): Eliminated yet another
2399 bogus optimization in expression compilation.
2401 * unix/configure.in: Added branch for BSD/OS-4* to shared library
2402 case statement. [Bug: 975]
2403 Fixed to correctly handle IRIX 6.5 n32 library support. [Bug: 1117]
2405 * win/winDumpExts.c: Patched to be pickier about stripping
2408 * library/http2.0/http.tcl: Added catch around eof test in
2409 CopyDone since the user may have already called http::reset.
2412 * unix/configure.in: Changed Linux and IRIX to set SHLIB_LIBS to
2413 LIBS so shared libraries are linked with the system
2414 libraries. [Bug: 1018]
2416 * generic/tclCompile.c (CompileExprWord): Fixed exception stack
2417 overflow bug caused by missing statement. [Bug: 928]
2419 * generic/tclIOCmd.c:
2420 * generic/tclBasic.c: Objectified the "open" command. [Bug: 1113]
2422 * generic/tclPosixStr.c (Tcl_ErrnoId, Tcl_ErrnoMsg): When using
2423 egcs, ENOTSUP and EOPNOTSUPP are the same, so now we handle that
2426 * library/init.tcl: Various small changes requested by Jan Nijtmans.
2427 - If the variable $tcl_library contains the empty string, this
2428 empty string will be put in $auto_path. This is not useful at all,
2429 it only slows down later package processing.
2430 - If the variable tcl_pkgPath is not set, the "unset __dir"
2431 fails. Thich makes init.tcl totally unusable. Better put a "catch"
2433 - In the function tcl_findLibraries, the "string match" function
2434 only works correctly if $tcl_patchLevel is in one of the forms
2435 "?.?a?", "?.?b?" or "?.?.?". Could a "regexp" be used instead,
2436 then it allows anything to be appended to the patchLevel
2437 string. And it is more efficient.
2438 - The tclPkgSetup function assumes that if $type != "load" then
2439 the type must be "source". This needn't be true. Some users want
2440 to add their own setup types.
2441 [RFE: 1138] [Bug: 978]
2444 * doc/registry.n: Added support for HKEY_PERFORMANCE_DATA and
2445 HKEY_DYN_DATA keys. [Bug: 1109]
2447 * win/tclWinInit.c (TclPlatformInit): Added code to ensure
2448 tcl_pkgPath is set to "" when no registry entry is found. [Bug: 978]
2450 1999-02-01 <stanton@GASPODE>
2452 * generic/tclBasic.c:
2453 * generic/tclCmdAH.c:
2454 * generic/tclCmdIL.c:
2455 * generic/tclCmdMZ.c:
2456 * generic/tclExecute.c:

2464 * generic/tclProc.c:
2465 * generic/tclTest.c:
2466 * generic/tclTimer.c:
2467 * generic/tcl.h: Made eval interfaces compatible with 8.0 by
2468 renaming Tcl_EvalObj to Tcl_EvalObjEx, renaming Tcl_Eval2 to
2469 Tcl_EvalEx and restoring Tcl_EvalObj and Tcl_GlobalEvalObj
2470 interfaces so they match Tcl 8.0.
2472 1999-01-28 <stanton@GASPODE>
2474 * Merged Tcl 8.0.5b1 changes.
2476 * generic/tclUtil.c (Tcl_DStringSetLength): Changed so the buffer
2477 overallocates in a manner similar to Tcl_DStringAppend. This
2478 should improve performance for TclUniCharToUtfDString.
2480 1998-12-11 === Tcl 8.1b1 Release ===
2482 1998-12-10 <stanton@GASPODE>
2484 * Fixed lots of files that used TCL_THREAD instead of TCL_THREADS.
2486 * generic/tclEncoding.c (Tcl_FreeEncoding): Moved most of the code
2487 into a static FreeEncoding routine that does not grab the
2488 encodingMutex to avoid deadlocks/races when called from other
2489 routines that already have the mutex.
2491 1998-12-09 <stanton@GASPODE>
2493 * library/msgcat1.0/msgcat.tcl: Fixed bad export list, fixed so
2494 all locale strings are converted to lower case, including file
2497 * generic/regcomp.c (makescan): Fixed bug in longest match case
2498 that caused anchored patterns to fail. [Bug: 897]
2500 1998-12-08 <stanton@GASPODE>
2502 * library/msgcat1.0/msgcat.tcl: changed mc to invoke mcunknown in
2503 the calling context, changed locale lookups to be case insensitive
2505 1998-12-07 <stanton@GASPODE>
2507 * generic/tclAlloc.c (TclpRealloc): Fixed a memory allocation bug
2508 where big blocks that were reallocated into a different heap
2509 location were not being placed into the bigBlocks list. [Bug: 933]
2511 * tests/msgcat.test: Added message catalog test suite.
2513 * library/msgcat1.0/msgcat.tcl: minor bug fixes, integrated latest
2514 changes from Mark Harrison.
2516 1998-12-04 <stanton@GASPODE>
2518 * library/msgcat1.0/msgcat.tcl: Changed code to conform to Tcl
2519 coding standards. Changed to use file join for portability.
2521 * library/msgcat1.0: Added initial implementaion of Tcl message
2522 catalog package contributed by Mark Harrison.
2524 1998-12-03 <stanton@GASPODE>
2526 * win/tclWinPipe.c (BuildCommandLine): Fixed bug that kept
2527 arguments containing spaces from being properly quoted.
2529 * tests/defs: Changed so auto_path is set to only contain the Tcl
2530 library directory. This keeps the tests from accidentally picking
2531 up stuff in installed packages.
2533 * generic/tclUtil.c (Tcl_StringMatch): Changed to match 8.0
2534 behavior in corner case where there is no closing bracket.
2536 1998-12-02 <stanton@GASPODE>
2538 * win/tclWinPipe.c (TclpCreateCommandChannel): Changed
2539 reader/writer threads to have THREAD_PRIORITY_HIGHEST so they will
2540 have a chance to run whenever there is something to do.
2542 * generic/tclIO.c (WriteBytes, WriteChars): Fixed so extraneous
2543 flushes do not happen in line mode.
2544 (TranslateOutputEOL): Made translation more efficient in line mode
2545 and fixed a buffer overflow bug in CRLF translation. [Bug: 887]
2547 1998-12-02 <welch@SAGE>
2549 * Updated patchlevel to 8.1b1
2551 1998-12-02 <stanton@GASPODE>
2553 * generic/regc_color.c (subcolor): Added check for error case to
2554 avoid an out of bounds array reference.
2556 * generic/tclCmdAH.c (Tcl_EncodingObjCmd): Changed to avoid using
2557 Tcl_DStringResult because it is not binary clean.
2559 * generic/tclParse.c (Tcl_ParseCommand): Fixed bug in comment
2560 parsing where a trailing comment looked like an incomplete
2563 1998-12-02 <welch@SAGE>
2565 * Merged changes from 8.0.4, especially the new pkg_mkIndex
2567 1998-12-01 <stanton@GASPODE>
2569 * generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_ReadChars): Added a call to UpdateInterest
2570 so we don't block when there is data sitting in the buffers.
2572 * generic/tclTest.c (TestevalobjvObjCmd): Updated for EvalObjv
2575 * tests/parse.test: Updated tests for EvalObjv change.
2577 * generic/tclParse.c (EvalObjv, Tcl_EvalObjv): Changed
2578 Tcl_EvalObjv interface to remove string and length arguments,
2579 preserved original interface as EvalObjv for internal use.
2581 * generic/tcl.h: Changed Tcl_EvalObjv interface to remove string
2582 and length arguments.
2584 * doc/Eval.3: Updated documentation for Tcl_EvalObjv to remove
2585 string and length arguments.
2587 * generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileForeachCmd): Fixed code that
2588 corrupted the exceptDepth value in the compile environment when
2589 foreach failed to compile inline. [Bug: 884]
2591 * library/encoding/euc-kr.enc:
2592 * library/encoding/ksc5601.enc:
2593 * tools/encoding/ksc5601.txt:
2594 * unix/tclUnixInit.c: Added support for Korean EUC.
2596 * win/tclWinChan.c (TclpGetDefaultStdChannel): added check for a
2597 failure during Tcl_MakeFileChannel.
2599 1998-11-30 <stanton@GASPODE>
2601 * unix/tclUnixNotfy.c (Tcl_WaitForEvent): Fixed hang that occurs
2602 when trying to close a pipe that is currently being waited on by
2603 the notifier thread. [Bug: 607]
2605 * unix/tclUnixFCmd.c (GetPermissionsAttribute): Increase size of
2606 returnString buffer to avoid overflow. [Bug: 584]
2608 * generic/tclThreadTest.c (TclThreadSend): Fixed memory leak due
2609 to use of TCL_VOLATILE instead of TCL_DYNAMIC.
2611 * generic/tclThread.c (TclRememberSyncObject): Fixed memory leak
2612 caused by failure to reuse condition variables.
2614 * unix/tclUnixNotfy.c: (Tcl_AlertNotifier, Tcl_WaitForEvent,
2615 NotifierThreadProc, Tcl_InitNotifier): Fixed race condition caused
2616 by incorrect use of condition variables when sending messages
2617 between threads.. [Bug: 607]
2619 * generic/tclTestObj.c (TeststringobjCmd): MAX_STRINGS was off by one
2620 so the strings array was too small.
2622 * generic/tclCkalloc.c (Tcl_DbCkfree): Moved mutex lock so
2623 ValidateMemory is done inside the mutex to avoid a race condition
2624 when validate_memory is enabled. [Bug: 880]
2626 1998-11-23 <stanton@GASPODE>
2628 * regexec.c: more performance tuning from Henry Spencer.
2630 1998-11-17 <stanton@GASPODE>
2632 * tclScan.c: moved "scan" implementation out of tclCmdMZ.c and
2633 added Unicode support. This required a complete reimplementation
2634 of the command to avoid using scanf(), which isn't Unicode aware.
2635 Two new features were added in the process: %n to return the
2636 current number of characters consumed, and XPG3-style %n$ argument
2637 order specifiers similar to those provided by the "format"
2640 * tclAlloc.c: changed so allocated memory is always 8-byte aligned
2641 to improve memory performance and to ensure that it will work on
2642 systems that don't like accessing 4-byte aligned values
2643 (e.g. Solaris and HP-UX). [Bug: 834]
2645 1998-11-06 <stanton@GASPODE>
2647 * tclVar.c (TclGetIndexedScalar): Fixed bug 796, var name was
2648 getting lost before being passed to CallTraces.
2650 1998-10-21 <stanton@GASPODE>
2652 * added "encoding" command
2654 * Moved internal regexp declarations from tclInt.h to tclRegexp.h
2656 * integrated regexp updates from Henry Spencer
2658 1998-10-15 <stanton@GASPODE>
2660 * tclUtf.c: added Unicode character table support
2662 * tclInt.h: added TclUniCharIsWordChar
2664 * tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_StringObjCmd): added "totitle" subcommand,
2665 changed "wordend" and "wordstart" to properly handle Unicode word
2666 characters and connector punctuation
2668 1998-10-05 <stanton@GASPODE>
2670 * auto.tcl, package.tcl: fixed SCCS strings
2672 * tclIndex: updated index to reflect 8.1 files
2674 * tclCompile.c (TclCompileScript): changed to avoid modifying the
2675 input string in place because name lookup operations could have
2676 arbitrary side effects
2678 * tclInterp.c: added guard against deleting current interpreter
2680 * tclMacFile.c, tclUnixFile.c, tclWinFile.c, tclFileName.c: added
2681 warnings around code that modifies strings in place
2683 * tclExecute.c: fixed off-by-one copying error, fixed merge bugs
2685 * tclEvent.c: changed so USE_TCLALLOC is tested for value instead
2688 * tclCompCmds.c: replaced SCCS strings, added warnings around code
2689 that modifies strings in place
2691 * interp.test: added test for interp deleting itself
2693 1998-09-30 <stanton@GASPODE>
2695 * makefile.vc: fixed so TCL_LIBRARY is set before running tcltest
2697 * tclWin32Dll.c: removed TclpFinalize, cleanup of merges
