1999-12-22 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
* changes: updated changes file
* tools/tclSplash.bmp: updated to show 8.3
1999-12-21 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
* README:
* generic/tcl.h:
* mac/README:
* unix/configure.in:
* tools/tcl.wse.in:
* win/README.binary:
* win/configure.in: updated to patch level 8.3b1
* unix/Makefile.in: added -srcdir=... for 'make html'
* doc/Hash.3: fixed reference to ckfree [Bug 3912]
* doc/RegExp.3: fixed calling params for Tcl_RegExecFromObj
* doc/open.n: fixed minor formatting errors
* doc/string.n: fixed minor formatting errors
* doc/lsort.n: added -unique docs
* tests/cmdIL.test:
* generic/tclCmdIL.c: added -unique option to lsort
* generic/tclThreadTest.c: changed thread ids to longs [Bug 3902]
* mac/tclMacOSA.c: fixed applescript for I18N [Bug 3644]
* win/mkd.bat:
* win/rmd.bat: removed necessity of tag.txt [Bug 3874]
* win/tclWinThrd.c: changed CreateThread to _beginthreadex and
ExitThread to _endthreadex
1999-12-12 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
* doc/glob.n:
* tests/fileName.test:
* generic/tclInt.decls:
* generic/tclInt.h:
* generic/tclIntDecls.h:
* generic/tclStubInit.c:
* generic/tclEncoding.c:
* generic/tclFileName.c:
* mac/tclMacFile.c:
* unix/tclUnixFile.c:
* win/tclWinFile.c: enhanced the glob command with the new options
-types -path -directory and -join. Deprecated TclpMatchFiles with
TclpMatchFilesTypes, extended TclGlob and TclDoGlob and added
GlobTypeData structure. [Bug 2363]
1999-12-10 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
* tests/var.test:
* generic/tclCompile.c: fixed problem where setting to {} array would
intermittently not work. [Bug 3339] (Fontaine)
* generic/tclCmdMZ.c:
* generic/tclExecute.c: optimized INST_TRY_CVT_TO_NUMERIC to recognize
boolean objects. [Bug 2815] (Spjuth)
* tests/info.test:
* tests/parseOld.test:
* generic/tclCmdAH.c:
* generic/tclProc.c: changed Tcl_UplevelObjCmd (uplevel) and
Tcl_EvalObjCmd (eval) to use TCL_EVAL_DIRECT in the single arg case as
well, to take advantage of potential pure list input optimization.
This means that it won't get byte compiled though, which should be
acceptable.
* generic/tclBasic.c: made Tcl_EvalObjEx pure list object aware in the
TCL_EVAL_DIRECT case for efficiency.
* generic/tclUtil.c: made Tcl_ConcatObj pure list object aware, and
return a list object in that case [Bug 2098 2257]
* generic/tclMain.c: changed Tcl_Main to not constantly reuse the
commandPtr object (interactive case) as it could be shared. (Fellows)
* unix/configure.in:
* unix/tcl.m4:
* unix/tclUnixPipe.c: removed checking for compatible vfork function
and use of the vfork function. Modern VM systems rarely suffer any
performance degradation when fork is used, and it solves multiple
problems with vfork. Users that still want vfork can add -Dfork=vfork
to the compile flags. [Bug 942 2228 1312]
1999-12-09 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
* win/aclocal.m4: made it just include tcl.m4
* doc/exec.n:
* doc/open.n:
* win/tclWin32Dll.c:
* win/tclWinChan.c:
* win/tclWinFCmd.c:
* win/tclWinInit.c:
* win/tclWinPipe.c:
* win/tclWinSock.c: removed all code that supported Win32s. It was no
longer officially supported, and likely didn't work anyway.
* win/makefile.vc: removed 16 bit stuff, cleaned up.
* win/tcl16.rc:
* win/tclWin16.c:
* win/winDumpExts.c: these files have been removed from the source
tree (no longer necessary to build)
1999-12-07 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
* tests/io.test: removed 'knownBug' tests that were for unsupported0,
which is now fcopy (that already has tests)
* mac/tclMacPort.h: added utime.h include
* generic/tclDate.c:
* unix/Makefile.in: fixed make gendate to swap const with CONST so it
uses the Tcl defined CONST type [Bug 3521]
* generic/tclIO.c: removed panic that could occur in FlushChannel when
a "blocking" channel would receive EAGAIN, instead treating it the
same as non-blocking. [Bug 3773]
* generic/tclUtil.c: fixed Tcl_ScanCountedElement to not step beyond
the end of the counted string. [Bug 3336]
1999-12-03 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
* doc/load.n: added note about NT's buggy handling of './' with
LoadLibrary
* library/http2.1/http.tcl: fixed error handling in http::Event. [Bug
3752]
* tests/env.test: removed knownBug limitation from working test
* tests/all.tcl: ensured that ::tcltest::testsDirectory would be set
to an absolute path
* tests/expr-old.test:
* tests/parseExpr.test:
* tests/string.test:
* generic/tclGet.c:
* generic/tclInt.h:
* generic/tclObj.c:
* generic/tclParseExpr.c:
* generic/tclUtil.c:
* generic/tclExecute.c: added TclCheckBadOctal routine to enhance
error message checking for when users use invalid octal numbers (like
08), as well as replumbed the Expr*Funcs with a new VerifyExprObjType
to simplify type handling. [Bug 2467]
* tests/expr.test:
* generic/tclCompile.c: fixed 'bad code length' error for 'expr +
{[incr]}' case, with new test case [Bug 3736] and seg fault on 'expr
+ {[error]}' (different cause) that was caused by a correct
optimization that didn't correctly track how it was modifying the
source string in the opt. The optimization was removed, which means
that:
expr 1 + {[string length abc]}
will be not be compiled inline as before, but this should be written:
expr {1 + [string length abc]}
which will be compiled inline for speed. This prevents:
expr 1 + {[mindless error]}
from seg faulting, and only affects optimizations for degenerate cases
[Bug 3737]
1999-12-01 Scott Redman <redman@scriptics.com>
* generic/tcl.decls:
* generic/tclMain.c:
* unix/tclAppInit.c:
* win/tclAppInit.c: Added two new internal functions,
TclSetStartupScriptFileName() and TclGetStartupScriptFileName() and
added hooks into the main() code for supporting TclPro and other "big"
shells more easily without requiring a copy of the main() code.
* generic/tclEncoding.c:
* generic/tclEvent.c: Moved encoding-related startup code from
tclEvent.c into the more appropriate tclEncoding.c.
1999-11-30 Jeff Hobbs <hobbs@scriptics.com>
* generic/tclIO.c: fix from Kupries for Tcl_UnstackChannel that
correctly handles resetting translation and encoding.

1999-10-29 Brent Welch <welch@scriptics.com>
* generic/tclInt.h: Modified the TclNewObj and TclDecrRefCount in two
ways. First, in the case of TCL_THREADS, we do not use the special
Tcl_Obj allocator because that is a source of lock contention. Second,
general code cleanup to eliminate duplicated code. In particular,
TclDecrRefCount now uses TclFreeObj instead of duplicating that code,
so it is now identical to Tcl_DecrRefCount.

instead of duplicating the code. Adjusted TclFreeObj so it understands
the TCL_THREADS case described above.

debug output, add 3 new flags (-testsdir, -load, -loadfile), and
internally refactors common code for dealing with paths into separate
procedures. [Bug 2838, 2842]
Merged code from core-8-2-1 branch that changes the checks for the
value of tcl_interactive to also incorporate a check for the existence
of the variable.
* tests/autoMkindex.test:
* tests/pkgMkIndex.test: Explicitly cd to ::tcltest::testsDirectory at
the beginning of the test run

1999-07-26 Scott Redman <redman@scriptics.com>
* tests/tcltest.test: Need to close the new core file, there seems to
be a hang in threaded WinNT if the file isn't closed. Open issue, need
to fix that hang.
* tests/httpold.test: Add time delay in response from Http server so
that test cases can properly detect timeout conditions with threads
enabled on multi-CPU WinNT.
* tests/winFCmd.test: Test case winFcmd-1.33 was looking for
c:\windows, which may not exist. Instead, create a new directory on
c:\ and use it for the test.
* win/tclWinConsole.c:
* win/tclWinPipe.c:
* win/tclWinSock.c: Fix terminating helper threads by holding any
mutexes from the primary thread while waiting for the helper thread to
terminate. Without these changes, the test suite hangs on WinNT with 2
CPUs and threads enabled. Open issue, seems to be a sporadic hang on
dual CPU systems still (very rare).
1999-07-26 Jennifer Hom <jenn@scriptics.com>
* tests/tcltest.test:
* library/tcltest1.0/tcltest.tcl:
* doc/tcltest.n: Cleaned up code in ::tcltest::PrintError, revised
documentation, and added tests for the tcltest package.
1999-07-23 Scott Redman <redman@scriptics.com>
* tests/info.test:
* generic/tclParse.c: Removed patch for info command, breaks test
cases on Unix. Patch was bad and needs to be redone properly. [Bug
2382]
1999-07-22 Scott Redman <redman@scriptics.com>
* Changed version to 8.2b2.
* win/tclWinSock.c: Fixed hang with threads enabled, fixed semaphores
with threads disabled.
* win/safe.test: Fixed safe-6.3 with threads enabled.
* win/Makefile.in: Fixed calling of tcltest to fix safe.test failures
due to path TCL_LIBRARY path.
* win/tclWinPort.h: Block out include of sys/*.h in order to build
extensions with MetroWerks compiler for Win32. [Bug 2385]
* generic/tclCmdMZ.c:
* generic/tclIO.c: Fix ANSI-style prototypes based on patch from
Ulrich Ring. [Bug 2391]
* unix/Makefile.in: Need to make install-sh executable before calling
(with chmod +x). [Bug 2413]
* tests/var.test:
* generic/tclVar.c: Fixed bug that caused a seg. fault when using
"array set a(b) {}", which is a bad array name anyway. Now the "array
set" command will return an error in this case. Added test case and
fixed existing test. [Bug 2427]
1999-07-21 Scott Redman <redman@scriptics.com>
* tests/info.test:
* generic/tclParse.c: Applied patch to fix "info complete" for the
string {[a [b]}. Patch from Peter Spjuth. [Bug 2382]
* doc/Utf.3:
* generic/tcl.decls:
* generic/tclDecls.h:
* generic/tclUtf.c: Changed function declarations in
non-platform-specific public APIs to use "unsigned long" instead of
"size_t", which may not be defined on certain compilers (rather than
include sys/types.h, which may not exist).
* unix/Makefile.in: Added the Windows configure script to the
distribution file list, already shipping configure.in and the .m4
files, but needed the configure script itself.
* win/makefile.vc: Changed version number of DDE package in VC++
makefile to use 1.1 instead of 1.0.
* doc/open.n: Added documentation of \\.\comX notation for opening
serial ports on Windows (alternative to comX:).
* tests/ioCmd.test:
* doc/open.n:
* win/tclWinSerial.c: Applied patch from Rolf Schroedter to add
-pollinterval option to fconfigure to modify the maxblocktime used in
the fileevent polling. Added documentation and fixed the test case as
well.
* win/tclWinSock.c: Modified 8.1.0 version of the Win32 socket driver
to move the handling of the socket event window in a separate thread.
It also turned out that Win95 & Win98 were, in some cases, getting
multiple FD_ACCEPTs but only handling one. Added a count for the
FD_ACCEPT to take care of this. Tested on NT4 SP3, NT4 SP4, Win95, and
Win98. [Bug 2178 2256 2259 2329 2323 2355]
1999-07-21 Jerry Peek <jpeek@scriptics.com>
* README: Small tweaks to clean up typos and wording.
1999-07-20 Melissa Hirschl <hershey@matisse.scriptics.com>
* generic/tclInitScript.h:
* unix/tclUnixInit.c: merged code with 8.0.5. We now use an
intermediate global tcl var "tclDefaultLibrary" to keep the
"tcl_library" var from being set by the default value in the Makefile.
Also fixed a bug in which caused the value of TCL_LIBRARY env var to
be ignored.
* unix/tclWinInit.c: just updated some comments.
1999-07-19 Melissa Hirschl <hershey@matisse.scriptics.com>
* library/http2.1/http.tcl: updated -useragent text to say version
2.1.
1999-07-16 Scott Redman <redman@scriptics.com>
* generic/tcl.decls:
* generic/tclDecls.h:
* generic/tclStubInit.c: Add Tcl_SetNotifier to stub table. [Bug 2364]
* unix/aclocal.m4:
* unix/tcl.m4: Add check for Alpha/Linux to correct the IEEE floating
flag to the compiler, should be -mieee. Patch from Don Porter.
* tools/tcl.hpj.in: Change version number of .cnt file referenced in
.HPJ file.
1999-07-15 Scott Redman <redman@scriptics.com>
* tools/tcl.wse.in: Fixed naming of target files for Windows.
1999-07-14 Jerry Peek <jpeek@scriptics.com>
* doc/re_syntax.n: Deleted sentence as suggested by Scott S.
1999-07-12 Jerry Peek <jpeek@scriptics.com>
* doc/re_syntax.n: Removed two notes to myself (oops), cleaned up
wording, fixed changebars, made two examples easier to read.
1999-07-11 Scott Redman <redman@scriptics.com>
* win/makefile.vc: Since the makefile.vc should continue to work while
we're working out bugs/issues in the new TEA-style
autoconf/configure/gmake build mechanism for Windows, the version
numbers of the Tcl libraries need to remain in sync. Modified the
version numbers in the makefile to reflect the change to 8.2b1.
