Fellows <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk> * generic/regguts.h, generic/regc_color.c, generic/regc_nfa.c: Fixes for problems created when processing regular expressions that generate very large automata. An enormous number of thanks to Will Drewry <wad@google.com>, Tavis Ormandy <taviso@google.com>, and Tom Lane <tgl@sss.pgh.pa.us> from the Postgresql crowd for their help in tracking these problems down. [Bug 1810264] 2007-12-14 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> * win/README: updated notes 2007-12-14 Zoran Vasiljevic <vasiljevic@users.sourceforge.net> * unix/tclUnixCompat.c (TclpGetHostByName): Really applied the change noted on 2007-11-13 by dkf below. 2007-12-13 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> * generic/tclIOUtil.c (TclGetOpenMode): Only set the O_APPEND flag * tests/ioUtil.test (ioUtil-4.1): on a channel for the 'a' mode and not for 'a+'.

[Bug 1844789] 2007-11-28 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> * win/tclWinSock.c (Tcl_GetHostName): update to previous fix to set hostname length appropriately, clean up check overall. 2007-11-27 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * win/tclWinSock.c: Add missing encoding conversion of the [info hostname] value from the system encoding to Tcl's internal encoding. This is important now that ICANN no longer limits host names to ASCII. [Bug 1823552] 2007-11-26 Zoran Vasiljevic <vasiljevic@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclThread.c: Back-port locking changes from Tcl8.5 in Tcl_Mutex/ConditionFinlize.

This check is new to 8.4 but exists in 8.5, so this is a backport or something. Thanks Gustaf Neumann. 2007-10-02 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> * generic/tcl.h (Tcl_DecrRefCount): Update change from 2006-05-29 to make macro more warning-robust in unbraced if code. 2007-10-02 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * README: Bump version number to 8.4.17 * generic/tcl.h: * tools/tcl.wse.in: * unix/configure.in: * unix/tcl.spec: * win/README.binary: * win/configure.in: * unix/configure: autoconf-2.13 * win/configure: 2007-09-20 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> *** 8.4.16 TAGGED FOR RELEASE *** * doc/load.n: Backport corrected example. 2007-09-19 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * unix/Makefile.in: Update `make dist` so that tclDTrace.d is included in the source code distribution. * generic/tclPkg.c: Backport fix for [1573844] to the * tests/pkg.test: TCL_TIP268 sections. 2007-09-18 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * changes: updates for 8.4.16 release. 2007-09-15 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net> * unix/tcl.m4 (SunOS-5.1x): replace direct use of '/usr/ccs/bin/ld' in SHLIB_LD by 'cc' compiler driver. * unix/configure: autoconf-2.13 2007-09-14 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclDTrace.d (new file): add DTrace provider for Tcl; allows * generic/tclCompile.h: tracing of proc and command entry & * generic/tclBasic.c: return, bytecode execution, object * generic/tclExecute.c: allocation and more; with essentially * generic/tclInt.h: zero cost when tracing is inactive; * generic/tclObj.c: enable with --enable-dtrace configure * generic/tclProc.c: arg (disabled by default, will only * unix/Makefile.in: enable if DTrace is present). * unix/configure.in: [Patch 1793984] * macosx/Makefile: enable DTrace support. * unix/configure: autoconf-2.13 2007-09-11 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl: Accept underscores and colons in * library/tcltest/pkgIndex.tcl: constraint names.

See discussion on Bug 1726873 for more information. 2007-06-29 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclAlloc.c: on Darwin, ensure memory allocated by * generic/tclThreadAlloc.c: the custom TclpAlloc()s is aligned to 16 byte boundaries (as is the case with the Darwin system malloc). 2007-06-27 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclCmdMZ.c: Corrected broken trace reversal logic in * generic/tclTest.c: TclCheckInterpTraces that led to infinite loop * tests/basic.test: when multiple Tcl_CreateTrace traces were set and one of them did not fire due to level restrictions. [Bug 1743941]. 2007-06-23 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net> * macosx/tclMacOSXNotify.c (AtForkChild): don't call CoreFoundation APIs after fork() on systems where that would lead to an abort(). 2007-06-10 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> * README: updated links. [Bug 1715081] 2007-06-06 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net> * unix/configure.in (Darwin): add plist for tclsh; link the * unix/Makefile.in (Darwin): Tcl and tclsh plists into their * macosx/Tclsh-Info.plist.in (new): binaries in all cases. * unix/tcl.m4 (Darwin): fix CF checks in fat 32&64bit builds. * unix/configure: autoconf-2.13 2007-06-05 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * tests/result.test (result-6.2): Add test for [Bug 1649062] so that 8.4 and 8.5 both test the same outcome and we verify compatibility. 2007-05-30 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * README: Bump version number to 8.4.16 * generic/tcl.h: * tools/tcl.wse.in: * unix/configure.in: * unix/tcl.spec: * win/README.binary: * win/configure.in: * unix/configure: autoconf-2.13 * win/configure: 2007-05-29 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> * unix/tclUnixThrd.c (Tcl_JoinThread): fix for 64-bit handling of pthread_join exit return code storage.

[Tcl Bug 1706140] * generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Trace*Proc): Update Tcl_VarTraceProcs so * generic/tclLink.c (LinkTraceProc): that they call * generic/tclUtil.c (TclPrecTraceProc): Tcl_InterpDeleted() for themselves, and do not rely on (frequently buggy) setting of the TCL_INTERP_DESTROYED flag by the trace core. * generic/tclVar.c: Update callers of CallVarTraces to not pass in the TCL_INTERP_DESTROYED flag. Also apply filters so that public routines only pass documented flag values down to lower level routines. * generic/tclVar.c (CallVarTraces): The setting of the TCL_INTERP_DESTROYED flag is now done entirely within the CallVarTraces routine, the only place it can be done right. 2007-04-30 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net> * unix/Makefile.in: add 'tclsh' dependency to install targets that rely on tclsh, fixes parallel 'make install' from empty build dir. 2007-04-29 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net> * unix/tclUnixFCmd.c: add workaround for crashing bug in fts_open() * unix/tclUnixInit.c: without FTS_NOSTAT on 64bit Darwin 8 or earlier. * unix/tclLoadDyld.c (TclpLoadMemory): fix (void*) arithmetic. * macosx/tclMacOSXNotify.c: fix warnings. * macosx/README: sync whitespace/formatting with HEAD. * macosx/tclMacOSXBundle.c: * macosx/tclMacOSXNotify.c: * unix/tclLoadDyld.c: * macosx/Makefile: fix/add copyright and license refs. * macosx/tclMacOSXBundle.c: * macosx/Tcl-Info.plist.in: * unix/Makefile.in (dist): copy license.terms to dist macosx dir. * unix/configure.in: install license.terms into Tcl.framework. * unix/configure: autoconf-2.13 2007-04-21 Kevin B. Kenny <kennyb@acm.org> * generic/tclClock.c: Restored Cygwin buildability [Bug 1387154] * generic/tclInt.decls: Yet another round of attempting * generic/tclInt.h: to get the correct type signature * unix/tclUnixPort.h: for TclpLocaltime and TclpGmtime. * unix/tclUnixTime.c: CONST TclpTime_t is a 'time_t *CONST' * win/tclWinTime.c: and not a 'CONST time_t*' [Bug 1677275] * generic/tclIntDecls.h: * generic/tclIntPlatDecls.h: Regenerated. 2007-03-24 Zoran Vasiljevic <vasiljevic@users.sourceforge.net> * win/tclWinThrd.c: Thread exit handler marks the current thread as un-initialized. This allows exit handlers that are registered later to re-initialize this subsystem in case they need to use some sync primitives (cond variables) from this file again. 2007-03-19 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclEvent.c (Tcl_CreateThread): Replaced some calls to * generic/tclPkg.c (CheckVersion): Tcl_Alloc() with calls to * unix/tclUnixTime.c (SetTZIfNecessary): ckalloc(), which better * win/tclAppInit.c (setargv): supports memory debugging. 2007-03-17 Kevin Kenny <kennykb@acm.org> * win/tclWinReg.c (GetKeyNames): Size the buffer for enumerating key names correctly, so that Unicode names exceeding 127 chars can be retrieved without crashing.

[Bug 1671087] * generic/tclVar.c (TclArraySet): Re-fetch pointers for the list * tests/var.test (var-17.1): argument of [array set] each time through the loop as defense against possible shimmer issues. [Bug 1669489]. 2007-03-10 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk> * generic/tclCmdIL.c (Tcl_LsortObjCmd): Handle tricky case with loss * tests/cmdIL.test (cmdIL-1.29):of list rep during sorting due to shimmering.

More notes in the comments to the test. 2007-02-20 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * doc/tcltest.n: Typo fix. [Bug 1663539] 2007-02-19 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> * generic/tclIOUtil.c (Tcl_FSEvalFile): safe incr of objPtr ref. * unix/tcl.m4: use SHLIB_SUFFIX=".so" on HP-UX ia64 arch. * unix/configure: autoconf-2.13 2007-02-12 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com> * generic/tclEncoding.c (EscapeFromUtfProc): Applied patch supplied by Mo DeJong to fix [Bug 1516109]. Backport from Tcl 8.5. Mo's description: Clear the TCL_ENCODING_END flag when end bytes are written. This fix keep this method from writing escape bytes for an encoding like iso2022-jp multiple times when the escape byte overlap with the end of the IO buffer. * tests/io.test: Add test case for escape byte overlap case. 2007-02-04 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net> * unix/configure.in: add caching to -pipe check. * unix/configure: autoconf-2.13 2007-01-30 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> * win/Makefile.in (install-private-headers): added target 2007-01-29 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * doc/fcopy.n: Typo fix. [Bug 1630627] 2007-01-25 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net> * unix/tcl.m4: integrate CPPFLAGS into CFLAGS as late as possible * unix/configure.in: and move (rather than duplicate) -isysroot flags from CFLAGS to CPPFLAGS to avoid errors about multiple -isysroot flags from some older gcc builds. * unix/configure: autoconf-2.13 2007-01-22 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com> * compat/memcmp.c (memcmp): Fixed the VOID / CONST typo introduced by the last checkin. 2007-01-22 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk> * compat/memcmp.c (memcmp): Reworked so that arithmetic is never performed upon void pointers, since that is illegal. [Bug 1631017] 2006-01-19 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net> * macosx/tclMacOSXNotify.c: accommodate changes to prototypes of OSSpinLock(Un)Lock API. * tests/env.test: add extra system env vars that need to be preserved on some Mac OS X versions for testsuite to work. * unix/tcl.m4: ensure CPPFLAGS env var is used when set. [Bug 1586861] (Darwin): add -isysroot and -mmacosx-version-min flags to CPPFLAGS when present in CFLAGS to avoid discrepancies between what headers configure sees during preprocessing tests and compiling tests. * unix/configure: autoconf-2.13 2006-12-19 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net> * unix/tclUnixThrd.c (TclpInetNtoa): fix for 64 bit. * unix/tcl.m4 (Darwin): --enable-64bit: verify linking with 64bit -arch flag succeeds before enabling 64bit build. * unix/configure: autoconf-2.13 2006-12-14 Donal K.

[Bug 1615277] 2006-12-05 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com> * tests/pkg.test: Backport to 8.4 (Don Porter's work): * generic/tclPkg.c: When no requirements are supplied to a [package require $pkg] and [package unknown] is invoked to find a satisfying package, pass the requirement argument "0-" (which means all versions are acceptable). This permits a registered [package unknown] command to call [package vsatisfies $testVersion {*}$args] without any special handling of the empty $args case. This fixes/avoids a bug in [::tcl::tm::UnknownHandler] that was causing old TM versions to be provided in preference to newer TM versions. Thanks to Julian Noble for discovering the issue. 2006-12-04 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk> * doc/file.n: Fix confusing wording for [file pathtype].

[Bug 1536142] 2006-08-21 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net> * macosx/tclMacOSXNotify.c (Tcl_WaitForEvent): if the run loop is already running (e.g. if Tcl_WaitForEvent was called recursively), re-run it in a custom run loop mode containing only the source for the notifier thread, otherwise wakeups from other sources added to the common run loop modes might get lost; sync panic msg changes from HEAD. * unix/tclUnixNotfy.c (Tcl_WaitForEvent): on 64-bit Darwin, pthread_cond_timedwait() appears to have a bug that causes it to wait forever when passed an absolute time which has already been exceeded by the system time; as a workaround, when given a very brief timeout, just do a poll on that platform. [Bug 1457797] * unix/tclUnixPort.h (Darwin): override potentially faulty configure detection of termios availability in all cases, since termios is known to be present on all Mac OS X releases since 10.0.

(rdar://4685553) * macosx/README: updates for x86_64 support and Xcode 2.4. * unix/tclUnixChan.c (TclUnixWaitForFile): with timeout < 0, if select() returns early (e.g. due to a signal), call it again instead of returning a timeout result.

Allows calling exeve() in processes where the event loop has not yet been run (Darwin's execve() fails in processes with more than one thread), in particular allows embedders to call fork() followed by execve(), previously the pthread_atfork() child handler's call to Tcl_InitNotifier() would immediately recreate the notifier thread in the child after a fork. * macosx/tclMacOSXNotify.c (Tcl_InitNotifier): add support for * unix/tclUnixFCmd.c (DoRenameFile, CopyFileAtts): weakly importing * unix/tclUnixInit.c (TclpSetInitialEncodings): symbols not available on OSX 10.2 or 10.3, enables binaires built on later OSX versions to run on earlier ones. * macosx/README: document how to enable weak-linking; cleanup. * unix/tclUnixPort.h: add support for weak-linking; conditionalize AvailabilityMacros.h inclusion; only disable realpath on 10.2 or earlier when threads are enabled. * unix/tclLoadDyld.c (TclpLoadMemoryGetBuffer): change runtime Darwin * unix/tclUnixInit.c (TclpInitPlatform): release check to use global initialized once * unix/tclUnixFCmd.c (DoRenameFile, TclpObjNormalizePath): add runtime Darwin release check to determine if realpath is threadsafe. * unix/configure.in: add check on Darwin for compiler support of weak * unix/tcl.m4: import and for AvailabilityMacros.h header; move Darwin specific checks & defines that are only relevant to the tcl build out of tcl.m4; restrict framework option to Darwin; cleanup quoting. * unix/configure: autoconf-2.13 * unix/tclLoadDyld.c (TclpLoadMemory): * unix/tclUnixPipe.c (TclpCreateProcess): fix signed-with-unsigned comparison and other warnings from gcc4 -Wextra. 2006-07-13 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com> * unix/tclUnixPort.h: Added the inclusion of <AvailabilityMacros.h>. The missing header caused the upcoming #if conditions to wrongly exclude realpath, causing file normalize to ignore symbolic links in the path. 2006-07-11 Zoran Vasiljevic <vasiljevic@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclAsync.c: Made Tcl_AsyncDelete() more tolerant when called after all thread TSD has been garbage-collected. 2006-07-10 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> * generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_CreateChannel): allow Tcl std channel inheritance to be #defined out (default remains in). 2006-06-15 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * changes: changes to start prep for an 8.4.14 release. 2006-06-14 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net> * unix/tclUnixPort.h (Darwin): support for MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED define from AvailabilityMacros.h: override configure detection and only use API available in the indicated OS version or earlier. 2006-06-14 Pat Thoyts <patthoyts@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/regerror.c: Enable building Tcl with Microsoft's latest * generic/tcl.h: compiler offering (VS2005).

Note that pthread_atfork() is available starting with Tiger only. Because vfork() is used by the core on Darwin, [exec]/[open] are not affected by this fix, only extensions or embedders that call fork() directly (such as TclX). However, this only makes fork() safe from corefoundation tcl with --disable-threads; as on all platforms, forked children may deadlock in threaded tcl due to the potential for stale locked mutexes in the child.

Fellows <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk> * unix/tcl.m4 (SC_CONFIG_SYSTEM): Fixed quoting of command script to awk; it was a rarely used branch, but it was wrong. [Bug 1494160] 2006-05-13 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclFileName.c (TclDoGlob): Disabled the partial normalization done by the recursive glob routine, since changing the precise string of the pathname broke [glob] on some Tcl_Filesystems. [Bug 943995] * generic/tclProc.c (ProcCompileProc): When a bump of the compile epoch forces the re-compile of a proc body, take care not to overwrite any Proc struct that may be referred to on the active call stack.

This further reduces the ***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY*** noted for that change. 2006-04-03 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com> * generic/tclIO.c (ReadChars): Added check, panic and commentary to a piece of code which relies on BUFFER_PADDING to create enough space at the beginning of each buffer for the insertion of partial multibyte data at the beginning of a buffer. Commentary explains why this code is OK, and the panic is as a precaution if someone twiddled the BUFFER_PADDING into uselessness. * generic/tclIO.c (ReadChars): Temporarily suppress the use of TCL_ENCODING_END set when EOF was reached while the buffer we are converting is not truly the last buffer in the queue. Together with the Utf bug below it was possible to completely wreck the buffer data structures, eventually crashing Tcl. [Bug 1462248] * generic/tclEncoding.c (UtfToUtfProc): Stop accessing memory beyond the end of the input buffer when TCL_ENCODING_END is set and the last bytes of the buffer start a multi-byte sequence.

Ensure that a second call with TCL_TRACE_DESTROYED does not lead to a second call to Tcl_EventuallyFree(). It is still true that that second call should not happen, so the bug is not completely fixed. * tests/trace.test (test-18.3-4): added tests for [Bugs 1337229 and 1338280]. 2005-10-27 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclExecute.c (ExprRoundFunc): Fix typo where number before rounding is compared with smallest integer instead of number after rounding.

[Bug 1222872] 2005-06-27 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> *** 8.4.11 TAGGED FOR RELEASE *** * library/auto.tcl: Reverted to Revision 1.12.2.3 (Tcl 8.4.9). Restores the (buggy) behavior of [auto_reset] that fails to clear away auto-loaded commands from non-global namespaces. Fixing this bug exposed an unknown number of buggy files out there (including at least portions of the Tk script library) that cannot tolerate double [source]-ing. The burden of fixing these exposed bugs will not be forced on package/extension/application authors until Tcl 8.5. 2005-06-24 Kevin Kenny <kennykb@acm.org> * generic/tclEvent.c (Tcl_Finalize): * generic/tclInt.h: * generic/tclPreserve.c (TclFinalizePreserve): Changed the finalization logic so that Tcl_Preserve finalizes after exit handlers run; a lot of code called from Tk's exit handlers presumes tha Tcl_Preserve will still work even from an exit handler. Also, made the assertion check that no exit handlers are created in Tcl_Finalize conditional on TCL_MEM_DEBUG to avoid spurious panics in the "stable" release. 2005-06-24 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * library/auto.tcl: Make file safe to re-[source] without destroying registered auto_mkindex_parser hooks. 2005-06-23 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net> * tools/tcltk-man2html.tcl: fixed useversion glob pattern to accept multi-digit patchlevels. 2005-06-23 Kevin Kenny <kennykb@acm.org> * win/tclWinChan.c: More rewriting of __asm__ blocks that * win/tclWinFCmd.c: implement SEH in GCC, because mingw's gcc 3.4.2 is not as forgiving of violations committed by the old code and caused panics. [Bug 1225957] 2005-06-23 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net> * unix/Makefile.in (install-private-headers): rewrite tclPort.h when installing private headers to remove ../unix relative #include path to tclUnixPort.h (which is incorrect at the installed location). 2005-06-22 Kevin Kenny <kennykb@acm.org> * generic/tclInt.h: Changed the finalization * generic/tclEvent.c (Tcl_Finalize): logic to defer the * generic/tclIO.c (TclFinalizeIOSubsystem): shutdown of the pipe * unix/tclUnixPipe.c (TclFinalizePipes): management until after * win/tclWinPipe.c (TclFinalizePipes): all channels have been closed, in order to avoid a situation where the Windows PipeCloseProc2 would re-establish the exit handler after exit handlers had already run, corrupting the heap. [Bug 1225727] Corrected a read of uninitialized memory in PipeCloseProc2, which (at least on certain configurations) caused a great number of tests to either fail or hang. [Bug 1225044] 2005-06-22 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com> * generic/tclInt.h: Followup to change made on 2005-06-18 by Daniel Steffen. There are compilers (*) who error out on the redefinition of WORDS_BIGENDIAN. We have to undef the previous definition (on the command line) first to make this acceptable. (*): AIX native. 2005-06-22 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * win/tclWinFile.c: Potential buffer overflow. [Bug 1225571] Thanks to Pat Thoyts for discovery and fix. * tests/safe.test: Backport performance improvement from reduced $::auto_path. 2005-06-21 Pat Thoyts <patthoyts@users.sourceforge.net> * tests/winDde.test: Added some waits to the dde server script to let event processing run after we create the dde server and before we exit the server process. This avoids 'server did not respond' errors. 2005-06-21 Kevin Kenny <kennykb@acm.org> * generic/tclFileName.c: Corrected a problem where a directory name containing a colon can crash the process on Windows [Bug 1194458] * tests/fileName.test: Added test for [file split] and [file join] with a name containing a colon. * win/tclWinPipe.c: Reverted davygrvy's changes of 2005-04-19; they cause multiple failures in io.test. [Bug 1225044, still open] 2005-06-21 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclBasic.c: Made the walk of the active trace list aware * generic/tclCmdMZ.c: of the direction of trace scanning, so the * generic/tclInt.h: proper correction can be made.

The windows pipe driver now has the same behavior as the UNIX side. This change is to avoid a hung shell when exiting due to open pipes that refuse to close in a graceful manner. * doc/open.n: Added a note about -blocking 0 and lack of exit status as it had never been documented. [Bug 947693] ***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY*** Scripts that use async pipes on windows, must (like the UNIX side) set -blocking to 1 before calling [close] to receive the exit status. * tests/winPipe.test (winpipe-6.1/2): added 'fconfigure $f -blocking 1' so the exit status can be acquired. 2005-04-13 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com> * generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_SetChannelBufferSize): Lowest size limit * tests/io.test: changed from ten bytes to one byte.

[Bug 770053] * tests/unixNotfy.test: rewritten to use tcltest::threadReap to gracefully wait for the test thread to exit.

To test this code in the common case of a single-processor machine, a 'testwincpuid' command was added to tclWinTest.c, and a test case in platform.test. Thanks to Jeff Godfrey and Richard Suchenwirth for reporting this bug. [Bug 976722] 2004-05-27 Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@acm.org> * tests/clock.test: Added a single test for the presence of %G in [clock format], and conditioned out the clock-10.x series if they're all going to fail because of a broken strftime() call. [Bug 961714] 2004-05-27 Reinhard Max <max@suse.de> * generic/tclEncoding.c: * tests/encoding.test: added support and tests for translating embedded null characters between real nullbytes and the internal representation on input/output.

[Bug 918267] 2004-05-24 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> * generic/tclExecute.c (VerifyExprObjType): use GET_WIDE_OR_INT to properly have tclIntType used for smaller values.

The consequences of [Bug 736729] should be the same as in tcl8.3 and previous versions. The use of tclNsVarNameType objs is still disabled, pending a decision by the release manager. 2004-05-19 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk> * win/tclWinFile.c (TclpMatchInDirectory): fix for an issue where there was a sneak path from Tcl_DStringFree to SetErrorCode(0). The result was that the error code could be reset between a call to FindFirstFile and the check of its status return, leading to a bizarre error return of {POSIX unknown {No error}}. (Found in unplanned test - no incident logged at SourceForge.) 2004-05-19 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com> * generic/tclIO.c: Fixed [SF Tcl Bug 943274]. This is the same problem * generic/tclIO.h: as [SF Tcl Bug 462317], see ChangeLog entry 2001-09-26. The fix done at that time is incomplete. It is possible to get around it if the actual read operation is defered and not executed in the event handler itself. Instead of tracking if we are in an read caused by a synthesized fileevent we now track if the OS has delivered a true event = actual data and bypass the driver if a read finds that there is no actual data waiting. The flag is cleared by a short or full read. [[this bug amended 2004-07-14]] 2004-05-18 Kevin B.

Added a check in front of those calls to make sure that the TZ env var hasn't changed since the last call to tzset, and repeat tzset if necessary. [Bug 940278] Removed a buggy test of the Daylight Saving Time information in 'gettimeofday' in favor of applying 'localtime' to a known value.

We can't be 100% assured that Tcl is being unloaded by the OS in a stable condition and we need to protect the exit handlers should the stack be in a hosed state. AT&T style assembly for SEH under MinGW included, too. [Patch 858493] Also added DisableThreadLibraryCalls() for the DLL_PROCESS_ATTACH case.

Tcl_Finalize called from DllMain will pause all threads. Trust that the thread will get the close notice at a later time if it does ever wake up before being cleaned up by the system anyway. (SocketEventProc): connect errors should fire both the readable and writable handlers because this is how it works on UNIX.

Detection of sockets was off for Mac OS X which implements pipes as local sockets. The new code ensures that only IP sockets are detected as such. 2003-10-22 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com> * win/tclWinSock.c (TcpWatchProc): Watch for FD_CLOSE too when asked for writable events by the generic layer.

This bug built a command line with a missing space between tclpipe.dll and the following arguments. It caused error in Windows 98 when exec command.com (e.g. dir) [Bug 789040] 2003-10-03 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclBasic.c: Fixed error in ref count management of command * generic/tclCmdMZ.c: and execution traces that caused access to freed memory in trace-32.1.

This does not fix [Bug 811483] but helps to contain some of its worst symptoms. Also backported the corrections to test trace-28.4 from Vince Darley. 2003-09-29 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk> * library/http/http.tcl (geturl): Correctly check the type of boolean-valued options. [Bug 811170] * unix/tcl.m4 (SC_ENABLE_FRAMEWORK): Added note to make it clearer that this is an OSX feature, not a general Unix feature. [Bug 619440] 2003-09-28 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com> * win/tclWinPipe.c: The windows port of expect can call TclWinAddProcess before any of the other pipe functions. Added a missing PipeInit() call to make sure the initialization happens. 2003-09-25 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net> * macosx/Makefile: ensure SYMROOT exists if OBJROOT is overridden on command line. Replaced explict use of /usr/bin by ${BINDIR}. 2003-09-23 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclCmdMZ.c: Fixed [Bug 807243] where * tests/trace.test (trace-31,32.*): the introspection results of both [trace info command] and [trace info execution] were getting co-mingled. Thanks to Mark Saye for the report. * library/init.tcl (auto_load, auto_import): Expanded Eric Melski's 2000-01-28 fix for [Bug 218871] to all potentially troubled uses of [info commands] on input data, where glob-special characters could cause problems. 2003-09-19 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net> * generic/tclExecute.c: adding (DE)CACHE_STACK_INFO() pairs to protect all calls that may cause traces on ::errorInfo or ::errorCode to corrupt the stack [Bug 804681] 2003-09-10 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * library/opt/optparse.tcl: Overlooked dependence of opt 0.4.4 * library/opt/pkgIndex.tcl: on Tcl 8.2.

This can save a costly and pointless package search. Bumped to 1.3.1. Thanks to Dave Bodenstab. [Bug 781609] 2003-08-05 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net> * generic/tclExecute.c (INST_INVOKE, INST_EVAL, INST_PUSH_RESULT): added a Tcl_ResetResult(interp) at each point where the interp's result is pushed onto the stack, to avoid keeping an extra reference that may cause costly Tcl_Obj duplication. Detected by Franco Violi, analyzed by Peter Spjuth and Donal Fellows. [Bug 781585] 2003-07-24 Reinhard Max <max@suse.de> * library/package.tcl: Fixed a typo that broke pkg_mkIndex -verbose. * tests/pkgMkIndex.test: Added a test for [pkg_mkIndex -verbose]. 2003-07-23 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net> * unix/Makefile.in: changes to html-tcl & html-tk targets for compatibility with non-gnu makes. * unix/Makefile.in: added macosx/README to dist target. 2003-07-23 Pat Thoyts <patthoyts@users.sourceforge.net> * win/tclWinReg.c (OpenSubKey): Backported fix for [Bug 775976] which causes the registry set command to fail when built with VC7. * library/reg/pkgIndex.tcl: Incremented the version to 1.1.2. 2003-07-21 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> *** 8.4.4 TAGGED FOR RELEASE *** * changes: updated for 8.4.4 release 2003-07-18 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net> * macosx/Makefile: added option to allow installing manpages in addition to default html help. 2003-07-18 Donal K.

[Bug 760872] * library/init.tcl: * tests/init.test: * doc/tcltest.n: Restored the [Eval] proc to replace * library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl: the [::puts] command when either the -output or -error option for [test] is in use, in order to capture data written to the output or error channels for comparison against what is expected. This is easier to document and agrees better with most user expectations than the previous attempt to replace [puts] only in the caller's namespace. Documentation made more precise on the subject. [Bug 706359] * doc/AddErrInfo.3: Improved consistency of documentation by using * doc/CrtTrace.3: "null" everywhere to refer to the character * doc/Encoding.3: '\0', and using "NULL" everywhere to refer to * doc/Eval.3: the value of a pointer that points to nowhere. * doc/GetIndex.3: Also dropped references to ASCII that are no * doc/Hash.3: longer true, and standardized on the * doc/LinkVar.3: hyphenated spelling of "null-terminated". * doc/Macintosh.3: * doc/OpenFileChnl.3: * doc/SetVar.3: * doc/StringObj.3: * doc/Utf.3: * doc/CrtSlave.3 (Tcl_MakeSafe): Removed warning about possible deprecation (no TIP on that). 2003-07-17 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net> * macosx/Makefile: added var to allow overriding of tclsh used during html help building (Landon Fuller). 2003-07-16 Mumit Khan <khan@nanotech.wisc.edu> * generic/tclIOUtil.c (SetFsPathFromAny): Add Cygwin specific code to convert POSIX filename to native format. * generic/tclFileName.c (Tcl_TranslateFileName): And remove from here.

Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk> * doc/CrtSlave.3 (Tcl_MakeSafe): Updated documentation to strongly discourage use. IMHO code outside the core that uses this function is a bug... [Bug 655300] 2003-07-16 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> * generic/tcl.h: Add recognition of -DTCL_UTF_MAX=6 on the * generic/regcustom.h: make line to support UCS-4 mode. No config arg at this time, as it is not the recommended build mode. * generic/tclPreserve.c: In Result and Preserve'd routines, do not * generic/tclUtil.c: assume that ckfree == free, as that is not * generic/tclResult.c: always true. [Bug 756791] (fuller) 2003-07-16 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net> * win/Makefile.in: Don't define TCL_DBGX symbol for every compile. Instead, define TCL_PIPE_DLL only when compiling tclWinPipe.c. This will break other build systems, so they will need to remove the TCL_DBGX define and replace it with a define for TCL_PIPE_DLL. * win/makefile.vc: Ditto. * win/tclWinPipe.c (TclpCreateProcess): Remove PREFIX_IDENT and DEBUG_IDENT from top of file. Use TCL_PIPE_DLL passed in from build env instead of trying to construct the dll name from already defined symbols. This approach is more flexible and better in the long run. 2003-07-16 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclFileName.c (Tcl_GlobObjCmd): [Bug 771840] * generic/tclIOUtil.c (Tcl_FSConvertToPathType):[Bug 771947] * unix/tclUnixFCmd.c (GetModeFromPermString): [Bug 771949] Silence compiler warnings about unreached lines. * library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl (ProcessFlags): Corrected broken call * library/tcltest/pkgIndex.tcl: to [lrange].

[Bug 771539] 2003-07-15 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net> * macosx/Makefile: Rewrote buildsystem for Mac OS X framework build to be purely make driven; in order to become independent of Apple's closed-source IDE and build tool. The changes are intended to be transparent to the Makefile user, all existing make targets and cmd line variable overrides should continue to work. Changed build to only include tcl specific html help in Tcl.framework, the tk specific html help is now included in Tk.framework. * macosx/Tcl.pbproj/project.pbxproj: * macosx/Tcl.pbproj/jingham.pbxuser: Changed to purely call through to the make driven buildsystem; Tcl.framework is no longer assembled by ProjectBuilder. Set default SYMROOT in target options to simplify setting up PB (manually setting common build folder for tcl & tk no longer needed). * tools/tcltk-man2html.tcl: Added options to allow building only the tcl or tk html help files; the default behaviour with none of the new options is to build both, as before. * unix/Makefile.in: Added targets for building only the tcl or tk help. * macosx/README (new): Tcl specific excerpts of tk/macosx/README. * generic/tcl.h: Updated reminder comment about editing macosx/Tcl.pbproj/project.pbxproj when version number changes. 2003-07-11 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk> * tests/binary.test (binary-46.*): Tests to help enforce the current behaviour. * doc/binary.n: Documented that [binary format a] and [binary scan a] do encoding conversion by dropping high bytes, unlike the rest of the core. [Bug 735364] 2003-07-11 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * library/package.tcl: Corrected [pkg_mkIndex] bug reported on comp.lang.tcl.

Addition of a number of new tests. 2003-06-10 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net> * generic/tclBasic.c: * generic/tclExecute.c: let TclEvalObjvInternal call TclInterpReady instead of relying on its callers to do so; fix for the part of [Bug 495830] that is new in 8.4. * tests/interp.test: Added tests 18.9 (knownbug) and 18.10 2003-06-09 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * tests/string.test (string-4.15): Added test for [string first] bug reported in Tcl 8.3, where test for all-single-byte-encoded strings was not reliable. 2003-06-04 Joe Mistachkin <joe@mistachkin.com> * tools/man2help.tcl: Added duplicate help section checking and * tools/index.tcl: corrected a comment typo for the getTopics proc in index.tcl. [Bug 748700] 2003-05-23 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclObj.c (tclCmdNameType): Converted internal rep management of the cmdName Tcl_ObjType the opposite way, to always use the twoPtrValue instead of always using the otherValuePtr. Previous fix on 2003-05-12 broke several extensions that wanted to poke around with the twoPtrValue.ptr2 value of a cmdName Tcl_Obj, like TclBlend and e4graph.

[Bug 730244]. * generic/tclBasic.c (TclInvokeObjectCommand): objv[argc] is no longer set to NULL (Tcl_CreateObjCommand docs already say that it should not be accessed). * generic/tclObj.c (tclCmdNameType): Corrected variable use of the otherValuePtr or the twoPtrValue.ptr1 fields to store a (ResolvedCmdName *) as the internal rep. [Bug 726018]. * doc/Eval.3: Corrected prototype for Tcl_GlobalEvalObj [Bug 727622]. 2003-05-12 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net> * generic/tclVar.c (TclObjLookupVar): [Bug 735335] temporary fix, disabling usage of tclNsVarNameType. * tests/var.test (var-15.1): test for [Bug 735335] 2003-05-10 Zoran Vasiljevic <zoran@archiware.com> * unix/tclUnixThrd.c: corrected [Bug 723502] 2003-05-10 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> * generic/tclIOUtil.c: ensure cd is thread-safe.

[Bug 714106] 2003-05-09 Joe Mistachkin <joe@mistachkin.com> * generic/tclThreadAlloc.c (TclFreeAllocCache): Fixed memory leak caused by treating cachePtr as a TLS index [Bug 731754]. * win/tclAppInit.c (Tcl_AppInit): Fixed memory leaks caused by not freeing the memory allocated by setargv and the async handler created by Tcl_AppInit. An exit handler has been created that takes care of both leaks. In addition, Tcl_AppInit now uses ckalloc instead of Tcl_Alloc to allow for easier leak tracking and to be more consistent with the rest of the Tcl core [Bugs 733156, 733221]. * tools/encoding/txt2enc.c (main): Fixed memory leak caused by failing to free the memory used by the toUnicode array of strings [Bug 733221] 2003-05-05 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl: The -returnCodes option to [test] failed to recognize the symbolic name "ok" for return code 0. 2003-05-05 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk> * generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_HideCommand): Fixed error message grammar and spelling. 2003-04-29 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclFileName.c: fix to bug reported privately by Jeff where, for example, 'glob -path {[tcl]} *' gets confused by the leading special character (which is escaped internally), and instead lists files in '/'. Bug only occurs on Windows where '\' is also a directory separator. (Bug has been around at least since Tcl 8.3.) * tests/fileName.test: added test for the above bug. 2003-04-25 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclBasic.c: Tcl_EvalObjv() failed to honor the TCL_EVAL_GLOBAL flag when resolving command names. Tcl_EvalEx passed a string rep including leading whitespace and comments to TclEvalObjvInternal(). 2003-04-25 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com> * win/tclWinThrd.c: Applied [Patch 727271]. This patch changes the code to catch any errors returned by the windows functions handling TLS ASAP instead of waiting to get some mysterious crash later on due to bogus pointers. Patch provided by Joe Mistachkin. This is a stop-gap measure to deal with the low number of ?TLS slots provided by some of the variants of Windows (60-80). 2003-04-21 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl: When the return code of a test does not meet expectations, report that as the reason for test failure, and do not attempt to check the test result for correctness. [Bug 725253] 2003-04-18 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> * generic/tclExecute.c (ExprCallMathFunc): remove incorrect extraneous cast from Tcl_WideAsDouble. 2003-04-18 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk> * doc/open.n: Moved serial port options from [fconfigure] * doc/fconfigure.n: to [open] as it is up to the creator of a channel to describe the channel's special config options. [Bug 679010] 2003-04-16 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tcl.h Made changes so that the "wideInt" Tcl_ObjType * generic/tclObj.c is defined on all platforms, even those where * generic/tclPort.h TCL_WIDE_INT_IS_LONG is defined. Also made the Tcl_Value struct have a wideValue field on all platforms. This is a ***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY*** for TCL_WIDE_INT_IS_LONG platforms because that struct changes size. This is the same TIP 72 incompatibility that was seen on other platforms at the 8.4.0 release, when this change should have happened as well. [Bug 713562] * generic/tclInt.h: New internal macros TclGetWide() and TclGetLongFromWide() to deal with both forms of the "wideInt" Tcl_ObjType, so that conditional TCL_WIDE_INT_IS_LONG code is confined to the header file. * generic/tclCmdAH.c: Replaced most coding that was conditional * generic/tclCmdIL.c: on TCL_WIDE_INT_IS_LONG with code that * generic/tclExecute.c: works across platforms, sometimes using * generic/tclTest.c: the new macros above to do it. * generic/tclUtil.c: * generic/tclVar.c: 2003-04-17 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk> * doc/socket.n: Added a paragraph to remind people to specify their encodings when using sockets. [Bug 630621] 2003-04-16 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk> * doc/CrtMathFnc.3: Functions also have to deal with wide ints, but this was not documented. [Bug 709720] 2003-04-15 Kevin Kenny <kennykb@acm.org> * win/tclWinTime.c: Corrected use of types to make compilation compatible with VC++5. 2003-04-14 Kevin Kenny <kennykb@acm.org> * win/tclWinFile.c: added conditionals to restore compilation on VC++6, which was broken by recent changes. 2003-04-14 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net> Merged various bug fixes from current cvs head: * tests/cmdAH.test: better fix to test suite problem if /home is a symlink [Bug 703264] * generic/tclIOUtil.c: fix bad error message with 'cd ""' [Bug 704917] * win/tclWinFile.c: * win/tclWin32Dll.c: * win/tclWinInt.h: allow Tcl to differentiate between reparse points which are symlinks and mounted volumes, and correctly handle the latter. This involves some elaborate code to find the actual drive letter (if possible) corresponding to a mounted volume. [Bug 697862] * tests/fileSystem.test: add constraints to stop tests running in ordinary tcl interpreter. [Bug 705675] * generic/tclIOUtil.c: Some re-arrangement of code to bring it closer to CVS HEAD. No functional changes. * tests/fCmd.test: * win/tclWinFile.c: added some filesystem optimisation to the 'glob' implementation, and some new tests. * tests/winFile.test: * tests/ioUtil.test: * tests/unixFCmd.test: renumbered tests with duplicate numbers. [Bug 710361] 2003-04-12 Kevin Kenny <kennykb@acm.org> * tests/clock.test: Renumbered test cases to avoid duplicates [Bug 710310]. * tests/winTime.test: * win/tclWinTest.c (TestwinclockCmd, TestwinsleepCmd): * win/tclWinTime.c (Tcl_WinTime, UpdateTimeEachSecond, (ResetCounterSamples, AccumulateSample, SAMPLES, TimeInfo): Made substantial changes to the phase-locked loop (replaced an IIR filter with an FIR one) in a quest for improved loop stability (Bug not logged at SF, but cited in private communication from Jeff Hobbs). 2003-04-11 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_StringObjCmd,STR_IS_INT): Corrected inconsistent results of [string is integer] observed on systems where sizeof(long) != sizeof(int). [Bug 718878] * tests/string.test: Added tests for Bug 718878. * doc/string.n: Clarified that [string is integer] accepts 32-bit integers. 2003-04-11 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com> * generic/tclIO.c (UpdateInterest): When dropping interest in TCL_READABLE now dropping interest in TCL_EXCEPTION too. This fixes a bug where Expect detects eof on a file prematurely on Solaris 2.6 and higher. A much more complete explanation is in the code itself (40 lines of comments for a one-line change :) 2003-04-10 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk> * doc/binary.n: Fixed typo in [binary format w] desc. [Bug 718543] 2003-04-08 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk> * generic/tclCmdAH.c (Tcl_ErrorObjCmd): Strings are only empty if they have zero length, not if their first byte is zero, so fix test guarding Tcl_AddObjErrorInfo to take this into account. [Bug reported by Don Porter; no bug-id.] 2003-04-07 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileIfCmd): Corrected string limits of arguments interpolated in error messages.

Fellows <zzcgudf@ernie.mvc.mcc.ac.uk> * generic/tclObj.c (tclWideIntType, TclInitObjSubsystem): (SetBooleanFromAny): Make sure that tclWideIntType is defined and somewhat sensible everywhere. [Bug 713562] 2003-04-02 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net> * win/configure: Regen. * win/configure.in: Set stub lib flag based on new LIBFLAGSUFFIX variable. * win/tcl.m4 (SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS): Set new LIBFLAGSUFFIX that works like LIBSUFFIX, it is used when creating library names. The previous implementation would generate -ltclstub85 instead of -ltclstub85s when configured with --disable-shared. 2003-04-01 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * tests/README: Direct [source] of *.test files is no longer recommended.

[FR 576693] Replaced [regexp] and [regsub] with [string map] where possible. Thanks to David Welton. [Bugs 667456,667558] * library/tcltest/pkgIndex.tcl: Bumped to tcltest 2.2.3 * tests/msgcat.test (msgcat-2.2.1): changed test name to avoid duplication. [Bug 710356] * unix/dltest/pkg?.c: Changed all Tcl_InitStubs calls to pass argument exact = 0, so that rebuilds are not required when Tcl bumps to a new version. [Bug 701926] 2003-03-24 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net> * generic/tclVar.c: * tests/var.test: fixing ObjMakeUpvar's lookup algorithm for the created local variable, [Bugs 631741] (Chris Darroch) and [696893] (David Hilker). 2003-03-22 Kevin Kenny <kennykb@acm.org> * library/dde/pkgIndex.tcl: * library/reg/pkgIndex.tcl: Fixed a bug where [package require dde] or [package require registry] attempted to load the release version of the DLL into a debug build. [Bug 708218] Thanks to Joe Mistachkin for the patch. * win/makefile.vc: Added quoting around the script name in the 'test' target; Joe Mistachkin insists that he has a configuration that fails to launch tcltest without it, and it appears harmless otherwise. 2003-03-20 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclInt.h (tclOriginalNotifier): * generic/tclStubInit.c (tclOriginalNotifier): * mac/tclMacNotify.c (Tcl_SetTimer,Tcl_WaitForEvent): * unix/tclUnixNotfy.c (Tcl_SetTimer,Tcl_WaitForEvent, (Tcl_CreateFileHandler,Tcl_DeleteFileHandler): * win/tclWinNotify.c (Tcl_SetTimer,Tcl_WaitForEvent): Some linkers apparently use a different representation for a pointer to a function within the same compilation unit and a pointer to a function in a different compilation unit. This causes checks like those in the original notifier procedures to fall into infinite loops. The fix is to store pointers to the original notifier procedures in a struct defined in the same compilation unit as the stubs tables, and compare against those values. [Bug 707174] * generic/tclInt.h: Removed definition of ParseValue struct that is no longer used. 2003-03-19 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net> * generic/tclCompile.c: * tests/compile.test: bad command count on TCL_OUT_LINE_COMPILE [Bug 705406] (Don Porter). 2003-03-19 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * doc/Eval.3 (Tcl_EvalObjEx): Corrected CONST and * doc/ParseCmd.3 (Tcl_EvalTokensStandard): return type errors in documentation. [Bug 683994] 2003-03-18 Kevin Kenny <kennykb@users.sourceforge.net> * tests/registry.test: Changed the conditionals to avoid an abort if [testlocale] is missing, as when running the test in tclsh rather than tcltest. [Bug 705677] 2003-03-18 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net> * tools/tcltk-man2html.tcl: added support for building 'make html' from inside distribution directories named with 8.x.x version numbers. tcltk-man2html now uses the latest tcl8.x.x resp. tk8.x.x directories found inside its --srcdir argument. 2003-03-18 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net> * tests/cmdAH.test: fix test suite problem if /home is a symlink * generic/tclIOUtil.c: fix bad error message with 'cd ""' * win/tclWinFile.c: allow Tcl to differentiate between reparse points which are symlinks and mounted drives. These changes fix [Bugs 703264, 704917, 697862] respectively. 2003-03-17 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk> * doc/lsearch.n: Altered documentation of -ascii options so * doc/lsort.n: they don't specify that they operate on ASCII strings, which they never did anyway. [Bug 703807] 2003-03-14 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk> * generic/tclCmdAH.c (Tcl_FileObjCmd): Remove assumption that file times and longs are the same size.

[Bug 699060] * generic/tclCmdAH.c (Tcl_FormatObjCmd): Only add the modifier that indicates we've got a wide int when we're formatting in an integer style. Stops some libc's from going mad. [Bug 702622] Also tidied whitespace. 2003-03-13 Kevin Kenny <kennykb@users.sourceforge.net> * win/makefile.vc: Backed the version to 8.4 on the 8.4 branch.

Put them in win/tclWinPipe.c where they are used. * generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_SubstObj): Corrected and added test for * tests/subst.test (subst-2.4): Tcl_SubstObj's incorrect halting of substitution at the first \x00 byte. [Bug 685106] * generic/tclInterp.c (Tcl_InterpObjCmd): Corrected and added * tests/interp.test (interp-2.13): test for option parsing beyond objc for [interp create --]. Thanks to Marco Maggi. [Bug 702383] 2003-03-11 Kevin Kenny <kennykb@users.sourceforge.net> * win/makefile.vc: Added two missing uses of $(DBGX) so that tclpip8x.dll loads without panicking on Win9x. 2003-03-08 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * doc/tcltest.n: Added missing "-body" to example.

Added test code in 'tcltest' and a new file of test cases 'notify.test' to exercise this functionality; several of the new test cases fail for the original code and pass for the corrected code. [Bug 673714] * unix/tclUnixTest.c (TestfilehandlerCmd): Corrected a couple of typos in error messages. [Bug 596027] 2003-02-14 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> * README: Bumped to version 8.4.2. * generic/tcl.h: * tools/tcl.wse.in: * unix/configure: * unix/configure.in: * unix/tcl.m4: * unix/tcl.spec: * win/README.binary: * win/configure: * win/configure.in: * macosx/Tcl.pbproj/project.pbxproj: * generic/tclStringObj.c (Tcl_GetCharLength): perf tweak * unix/tcl.m4: correct HP-UX ia64 --enable-64bit build flags 2003-02-14 Kevin Kenny <kennykb@users.sourceforge.net> * win/tclWinTime.c: Added code to test and compensate for forward leaps of the performance counter. See the MSDN Knowledge Base article Q274323 for the hardware problem that makes this necessary on certain machines. * tests/winTime.test: Revised winTime-2.1 - it had a tolerance of thousands of seconds, rather than milliseconds. (What's six orders of magnitude among friends? Both the above changes are triggered by a problem reported at http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Mail/Message/ActiveTcl/1536811 although the developers find it difficult to believe that it accounts for the observed behavior and suspect a fault in the RTC chip. 2003-02-13 Kevin Kenny <kennykb@users.sourceforge.net> * win/tclWinInit.c: Added conversion from the system encoding to tcl_platform(user), so that it works with non-ASCII7 user names. [Bug 685926] * doc/tclsh.1: Added language to describe the handling of the end-of-file character \u001a embedded in a script file. [Bug 685485] 2003-02-11 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net> * tests/fileName.test: * unix/tclUnixFile.c: fix for [Bug 685445] when using 'glob -l' on broken symbolic links. Added two new tests for this bug. 2003-02-11 Kevin Kenny <kennykb@users.sourceforge.net> * tests/http.test: Corrected a problem where http-4.14 would fail when run in an environment with a proxy server. Replaced references to scriptics.com by tcl.tk. 2003-02-11 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> * tests/lsearch.test: * generic/tclCmdIL.c (Tcl_LsearchObjCmd): protect against the case that lsearch -regepx list and pattern objects are equal. * tests/stringObj.test: * generic/tclStringObj.c (Tcl_GetCharLength): correct ascii char opt of 2002-11-11 to not stop early on \x00. [Bug 684699] * tests.parse.test: remove excess EOF whitespace * generic/tclParse.c (CommandComplete): more paranoid check to break on (p >= end) instead of just (p == end). 2003-02-11 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net> * generic/tclParse.c (CommandComplete): * tests/parse.test: fix for [Bug 684744], by Don Porter. 2003-02-11 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> * generic/tclIOUtil.c (Tcl_FSJoinPath, Tcl_FSGetNormalizedPath): (UpdateStringOfFsPath): revert the cwdLen == 0 check and instead follow a different code path in Tcl_FSJoinPath. (Tcl_FSConvertToPathType, Tcl_FSGetNormalizedPath): (Tcl_FSGetFileSystemForPath): Update string rep of path objects before freeing the internal object. (darley) * tests/fileSystem.test: added test 8.3 * generic/tclIOUtil.c (Tcl_FSGetNormalizedPath): (UpdateStringOfFsPath): handle the cwdLen == 0 case * unix/tclUnixFile.c (TclpMatchInDirectory): simplify the hidden file match check. 2003-02-10 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net> * win/configure: * win/configure.in: Generate error when attempting to build under Cygwin. The Cygwin port of Tcl/Tk does not build and people are filing bug reports under the mistaken impression that someone is actually maintaining the Cygwin port. A post to comp.lang.tcl asking someone to volunteer as an area maintainer has generated no results. Closing [Bugs 680840, 630199, 634772] and marking as "Won't fix". 2003-02-10 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk> * doc/append.n: Return value was not documented.

In particular, these code examples are faster now: foreach f $flist { if {[file exists $f]} {file stat $f arr;...}} foreach f [glob -dir $dir *] { # action and/or recursion on $f } cd $dir foreach f [glob *] { # action and/or recursion on $f } cd .. * generic/tclTest.c: Fix for [Bug 683181] where test suite left files in 'tmp'. 2003-02-08 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> * library/safe.tcl: code cleanup of eval and string comp use. 2003-02-07 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net> * win/tclWinFCmd.c: cleanup long lines * win/tclWinFile.c: sped up pure 'glob' by a factor of 2.5 ('foreach f [glob *] { file exists $f }' is still slow) * tests/fileSystem.text: * tests/fileName.test: added new tests to ensure correct behaviour in optimized filesystem code. 2003-02-07 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclTest.c: * tests/fileSystem.text: fixed test 7.2 to avoid a possible crash, and not change the pwd. * tests/http.text: added comment to test 4.15, that it may fail if you use a proxy server. 2003-02-06 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileIncrCmd): * tests/incr.test: Don't include the text "(increment expression)" in the errorInfo generated by the compiled version of the incr command since it does not match the message generated by the non-compiled version of incr. It is also not possible to match this error output under Jacl, which does not support a compiler. 2003-02-06 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): When an error is encountered reading the increment value during a compiled call to incr, add a "(reading increment)" error string to the errorInfo variable. This makes the errorInfo variable set by the compiled incr command match the value set by the non-compiled version. * tests/incr-old.test: Change errorInfo result for the compiled incr command case to match the modified implementation. * tests/incr.test: Add tests to make sure the compiled and non-compiled errorInfo messages are the same. 2003-02-06 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl: Filename arguments to [outputChannel] and [errorChannel] (also -outfile and -errfile) were [open]ed but never [closed]. Also, [cleanupTests] could remove output or error files. [Bug 676978]. * library/tcltest/pkgIndex.tcl: Bumped to version 2.2.2. 2003-02-05 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net> * tests/interp.test: * tests/set-old.test: Run test cases that depend on hash order through lsort so that the tests also pass under Jacl. Does not change test results under Tcl. 2003-02-04 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclIOUtil.c: * generic/tclEvent.c: * generic/tclInt.h: * mac/tclMacFCmd.c: * unix/tclUnixFCmd.c: * win/tclWin32Dll.c: * win/tclWinFCmd.c: * win/tclWinInit.c: * win/tclWinInt.h: * tests/fileSystem.test: fix to finalization/unloading/encoding issues to make filesystem much less dependent on encodings for its cleanup, and therefore allow it to be finalized later in the exit process. This fixes fileSystem.test-7.1. Also fixed one more bug in setting of modification dates of files which have undergone cross-platform copies. [Patch 676271] * tests/basic.test: * tests/exec.test: * tests/fileName.test: * tests/io.test: fixed some test failures when tests are run from a directory containing spaces. * tests/fileSystem.test: * generic/tclTest.c: added regression test for the modification date setting of cross-platform file copies. 2003-02-03 Kevin Kenny <kennykb@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclBasic.c: Changed [trace add command] so that 'rename' callbacks get fully qualified names of the command. [Bug 651271]. ***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY*** * tests/trace.test: Modified the test cases for [trace add command] to expect fully qualified names on the 'rename' callbacks. Added a case for renaming a proc within a namespace. * doc/trace.n: Added language about use of fully qualified names in trace callbacks. 2003-02-01 Kevin Kenny <kennykb@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclCompCmds.c: Removed an unused variable that caused compiler warnings on SGI. [Bug 664379] * generic/tclLoad.c: Changed the code so that if Tcl_StaticPackage is called to report the same package as being loaded in two interps, it shows up in [info loaded {}] in both of them (previously, it didn't appear in the static package list in the second. * tests/load.test Added regression test for the above bug. [Bug 670042] * generic/tclClock.c: Fixed a bug that incorrectly allowed [clock clicks {}] and [clock clicks -] to be accepted as if they were [clock clicks -milliseconds]. * tests/clock.test: Added regression tests for the above bug. [Bug 675356] * tests/unixNotfy.test: Added cleanup of working files [Bug 675609] * doc/Tcl.n: Added headings to the eleven paragraphs, to improve formatting in the tools that attempt to extract tables of contents from the manual pages. [Bug 627455] * generic/tclClock.c: Expanded mutex protection around the setting of env(TZ) and the thread-unsafe call to tzset(). [Bug 656660] 2003-01-31 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * tests/tcltest.test: Cleaned up management of file/directory creation/deletion to improve "-debug 1" output. [Bug 675614] The utility [slave] command failed to properly [list]-quote a constructed [open] command, causing failure when the pathname contained whitespace. [Bug 678415] * tests/main.test: Stopped main.test from deleting existing file. Test suite should not delete files that already exist. [Bug 675660] 2003-01-28 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * tests/main.test: Constrain tests that do not work on Windows. [Bug 674387] 2003-01-28 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclIOUtil.c: fix to setting modification date in TclCrossFilesystemCopy. Also added 'panic' in Tcl_FSGetFileSystemForPath under illegal calling circumstances which lead to hard-to-track-down bugs. * generic/tclTest.c: added test suite code to allow exercising a vfs-crash-on-exit bug in Tcl's finalization caused by the encodings being cleaned up before unloading occurs. * tests/fileSystem.test: added new 'knownBug' test 7.1 to demonstrate the crash on exit. 2003-01-28 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tcl.h: Add TCL_PREFIX_IDENT and TCL_DEBUG_IDENT, used only by TclpCreateProcess. * unix/Makefile.in: Define TCL_DBGX. * win/Makefile.in: Define TCL_DBGX. * win/tclWinPipe.c (TclpCreateProcess): Check that the Tcl pipe dll actually exists in the Tcl bin directory and panic if it is not found. Incorporate TCL_DBGX into the Tcl pipe dll name. This fixes a really mysterious error that would show up when exec'ing a 16 bit application under Win95 or Win98 when Tcl was compiled with symbols. The error seemed to indicate that the executable could not be found, but it was actually the Tcl pipe dll that could not be found. 2003-01-26 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net> * win/README: Update msys+mingw URL to release 6. This version bundles gcc 3. 2003-01-26 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net> * win/configure: Regen. * win/configure.in: Add test that checks to see if the compiler can cast to a union type. * win/tclWinTime.c: Squelch compiler warning about union initializer by casting to union type when compiling with gcc. 2003-01-25 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_CutChannel, Tcl_SpliceChannel): Invoke TclpCutFileChannel and TclpSpliceFileChannel. * generic/tclInt.h: Declare TclpCutFileChannel and TclpSpliceFileChannel. * unix/tclUnixChan.c (FileCloseProc, TclpOpenFileChannel, (Tcl_MakeFileChannel, TclpCutFileChannel, (TclpSpliceFileChannel): Implement thread load data cut and splice for file channels. This avoids an invalid memory ref when compiled with -DDEPRECATED. * win/tclWinChan.c (FileCloseProc, TclpCutFileChannel, (TclpSpliceFileChannel): Implement thread load data cut and splice for file channels. This avoids an invalid memory ref that was showing up in the thread extension. 2003-01-25 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net> * win/tclWin32Dll.c (TclpCheckStackSpace, squelch_warnings): * win/tclWinChan.c (Tcl_MakeFileChannel, squelch_warnings): * win/tclWinFCmd.c (DoRenameFile, DoCopyFile, squelch_warnings): Re-implement inline ASM SEH handlers for gcc. The esp and ebp registers are now saved on the stack instead of in global variables so that the code is thread safe. Add additional checks when TCL_MEM_DEBUG is defined to be sure the values were recovered from the stack properly. Remove squelch_warnings functions and add a dummy call in the handler methods to squelch compiler warnings. 2003-01-25 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net> * win/configure: * win/configure.in: Define HAVE_ALLOCA_GCC_INLINE when we detect that no alloca function is found in malloc.h and we are compiling with GCC. Remove HAVE_NO_ALLOC_DECL define. * win/tclWin32Dll.c (TclpCheckStackSpace): Don't define alloca as a cdecl function. Doing this caused a tricky runtime bug because the _alloca function expects the size argument to be passed in a register and not on the stack. To fix this problem, we use inline ASM when compiling with gcc to invoke _alloca with the size argument loaded into a register. 2003-01-24 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> * win/tclWinDde.c (Dde_Init): clarified use of tsdPtr. (DdeServerProc): better refcount handling of returnPackagePtr. * generic/tclEvent.c (Tcl_Finalize): revert finalize change on 2002-12-04 to correct the issue with extensions that have TSD needing to finalize that before they are unloaded. This issue needs further clarification. * tests/unixFCmd.test: only do groups check on unix 2003-01-24 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclStringObj.c: proper fixes for Tcl_SetObjLength and Tcl_AttemptSetObjectLength dealing with string objects with both pure-unicode and normal internal representations. Previous fix didn't handle all cases correctly. * generic/tclIO.c: Add 'Tcl_GetString()' to ensure the object has a valid 'objPtr->bytes' field before manipulating it directly. This fixes [Bug 635200] and [Bug 671138], but may reduce performance of Unicode string handling in some cases. A further patch will be applied to address this, once the code is known to be correct. 2003-01-24 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net> * win/configure: Regen. * win/configure.in: Add test to see if alloca is undefined in malloc.h. * win/tclWin32Dll.c (TclpCheckStackSpace): Rework the SEH exception handler logic to avoid using the stack since alloca will modify the stack. This was causing a nasty bug that would set the exception handler to 0 because it tried to pop the previous exception handler off the top of the stack. 2003-01-23 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk> * doc/lset.n: Fixed fault in return values from lset in documentation examples [Bug 658463] and tidied up a bit at the same time. 2003-01-21 Joe English <jenglish@users.sourceforge.net> * doc/namespace.n (namespace inscope): Clarified documentation [Patch 670110] 2003-01-21 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net> * win/configure: Regen. * win/tcl.m4 (SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS): Set SHLIB_SUFFIX so that TCL_SHLIB_SUFFIX will be set to a useful value in the generated tclConfig.sh. Set SHLIB_LD_LIBS to "" or '${LIBS}' based on the --enable-shared flag. This matches the UNIX implementation. 2003-01-18 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> * generic/tclCkalloc.c: change %ud to %u as appropriate. 2003-01-17 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net> * win/tclWinDde.c (DdeServerProc): Deallocate the Tcl_Obj returned by ExecuteRemoteObject if it was not saved in a connection object. 2003-01-17 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tcl.h: Revert earlier change that defined TCL_WIDE_INT_TYPE as long long and TCL_LL_MODIFIER as L when compiling with mingw. This change ended up causing some test case failures when compiling with mingw. * generic/tclObj.c (UpdateStringOfWideInt): Describe the warning generated by mingw and why it needs to be ignored so that someone is not tempted to "fix" this problem again in the future. 2003-01-16 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclStringObj.c: Tcl_SetObjLength fix for when the object has a unicode string rep. Fixes [Bug 635200] * tests/stringObj.test: removed 'knownBug' constraint from test 14.1 now that this bug is fixed. * generic/tclInt.h: * generic/tclBasic.c: * generic/tclCmdMZ.z: * tests/trace.test: execution and command tracing bug fixes and cleanup. In particular fixed [Bugs 655645, 615043, 571385] - fixed some subtle cleanup problems with tracing. This required replacing Tcl_Preserve/Tcl_Release with a more robust refCount approach. Solves at least one known crash caused by memory corruption. - fixed some confusion in the code between new style traces (Tcl 8.4) and the very limited 'Tcl_CreateTrace' which existed before. - made behaviour consistent with documentation (several tests even contradicted the documentation before). - fixed some minor error message details - added a number of new tests 2003-01-16 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> * win/tclWinSerial.c (SerialOutputProc): add casts for bytesWritten to allow strict compilation (no warnings). * tests/winDde.test: * win/tclWinDde.c (Tcl_DdeObjCmd): Prevent crash when empty service name is passed to 'dde eval' and goto errorNoResult in request and poke error cases to free up any allocated data. 2003-01-16 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net> * win/tclWin32Dll.c (squelch_warnings): Squelch compiler warnings from SEH ASM code. * win/tclWinChan.c (squelch_warnings): Squelch compiler warnings from SEH ASM code. * win/tclWinDde.c: Add casts to avoid compiler warnings. Pass pointer to DWORD instead of int to avoid compiler warnings. * win/tclWinFCmd.c (squelch_warnings): Add casts and fixup decls to avoid compiler warnings. Squelch compiler warnings from SEH ASM code. * win/tclWinFile.c: Add casts and fixup decls to avoid compiler warnings. Remove unused variable. * win/tclWinNotify.c: Declare as DWORD instead of int to avoid compiler warning. * win/tclWinReg.c: Add casts to avoid compiler warning. Fix assignment in if expression bug. * win/tclWinSerial.c: Add casts to avoid compiler warnings. Remove unused variable. * win/tclWinSock.c: Add casts and fixup decls to avoid compiler warnings. 2003-01-14 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> * generic/tclClock.c (FormatClock): corrected typo that incorrectly conditionally defined savedTZEnv and savedTimeZone. 2003-01-13 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net> Fix mingw build problems and compiler warnings. * generic/tcl.h: Add if defined(__MINGW32__) check to code that sets the TCL_WIDE_INT_TYPE and TCL_LL_MODIFIER. * generic/tclClock.c (FormatClock): Don't define savedTimeZone and savedTZEnv if we are not going to use them. * generic/tclEnv.c: Add cast to avoid warning. * win/tclWinChan.c: Use DWORD instead of int to avoid compiler warning * win/tclWinThrd.c: Only define allocLock, allocLockPtr, and dataKey when TCL_THREADS is defined. This avoid a compiler warning about unused variables. 2003-01-12 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net> * win/README: Update msys + mingw URL, the new release includes the released 1.0.8 version of msys which includes a number of bug fixes. 2003-01-12 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net> * win/configure: Regen. * win/tcl.m4 (SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS): Pull in addition of shell32.lib to LIBS_GUI that was added to the Tk tcl.m4 but never made it back into the Tcl version. 2003-01-12 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tcl.h: Skip Tcl's define of CHAR, SHORT, and LONG when HAVE_WINNT_IGNORE_VOID is defined. This avoids a bunch of compiler warnings when building with Cygwin or Mingw. * win/configure: Regen. * win/configure.in: Define HAVE_WINNT_IGNORE_VOID when we detect a winnt.h that still defines CHAR, SHORT, and LONG when VOID has already been defined. * win/tcl.m4 (SC_LOAD_TCLCONFIG): Subst the TCL_DEFS loaded from tclConfig.sh so that Tcl defines can make it into the Tk Makefile. 2003-01-12 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net> * win/configure: Regen. * win/configure.in: Check for typedefs like LPFN_ACCEPT in winsock2.h and define HAVE_NO_LPFN_DECLS if not found. * win/tclWinSock.c: Define LPFN_* typedefs if HAVE_NO_LPFN_DECLS is defined. This fixes the build under Mingw and Cygwin, it was broken by the changes made on 2002-11-26. 2003-01-10 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclIOUtil.c: * win/tclWinInt.h: * win/tclWinInit.c: fix to new WinTcl crash on exit with vfs, introduced on 2002-12-06. Encodings must be cleaned up after the filesystem. * win/makefile.vc: fix to minor VC++ 5.2 syntax problem 2003-01-09 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompilerReturnCmd): Corrected off-by-one problem with recent commit. [Bug 633204] 2003-01-09 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclFileName.c: remove unused variable 'macSpecialCase' [Bug 664749] * generic/tclIOUtil.c: * generic/tclInt.h: * unix/tclUnixFile.c: * mac/tclMacFile.c: * win/tclWinFile.c: * win/tclWinInt.h: * win/tclWin32Dll.c: * tests/cmdAH.test: fix to non-ascii chars in paths when setting mtime and atime through 'file (a|m)time $path $time'. [Bug 634151] 2003-01-08 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclExecute.c (TclExprFloatError): Use the IS_NAN macro for greater clarity of code. 2003-01-07 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileReturnCmd): * tests/compile.test: Corrects failure of bytecompiled [catch {return}] to have result TCL_RETURN (not TCL_OK) [Bug 633204]. This patch is a workaround for 8.4.X. A new opcode INST_RETURN is a better long term solution for 8.5 and later. 2003-01-04 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com> * win/makefile.vc: * win/rules.vc: Fixed INSTALLDIR macro problem that blanked itself by accident causing the install target to put the tree at the root of the drive built on. Whoops.. Renamed the 'linkexten' option to be 'staticpkg'. Added 'thrdalloc' to allow the switching _on_ of the thread allocator. Under testing, I found it not to be benificial under windows for the purpose of the application I was using it for. It was more important for this app that resources for tcl threads be returned to the system rather than saved/moved to the global recycler. Be extra clean or extra fast for the default threaded build? Let's move to clean and allow it to be switched on for users who find it benificial for their use of threads. 2002-12-18 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com> * win/makefile.vc: some uses of xcopy swapped to the @$(CPY) macro. Reported by Joe Mistachkin <joe@mistachkin.com>. 2002-12-17 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> * generic/tclNotify.c (TclFinalizeNotifier, Tcl_SetServiceMode): (Tcl_ThreadAlert): Check that the stub functions are non-NULL before calling them. They could be set to NULL by Tcl_SetNotifier. 2002-12-16 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com> * generic/tclPipe.c (TclCleanupChildren): * tests/winPipe.test: * win/tclWinPipe.c (Tcl_WaitPid): * win/tclWinTest.c: Gave Tcl_WaitPid the ability to return a Win32 exception code translated into a posix style SIG*. This allows [close] to report "CHILDKILLED" without the meaning getting lost in a truncated exit code. In TclCleanupChildren(), TclpGetPid() had to get moved to before Tcl_WaitPid() as the the handle is removed from the list taking away the ability to get the process id after the wait is done. This shouldn't effect the unix implimentaion unless waitpid is called with a pid of zero, meaning "any". I don't think it is.. 2002-12-13 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * unix/configure.in: Updated configure of CVS snapshots to reflect * win/configure.in: the 8.4.1.1 patchlevel. * unix/configure: autoconf * win/configure autoconf 2002-12-11 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclProc.c (ProcessProcResultCode): Fix failure to propagate negative return codes up the call stack. [Bug 647307] * tests/proc.test (proc-6.1): Test for Bug 647307 * generic/tclParseExpr.c (TclParseInteger): Return 1 for the string "0x" (recognize leading "0" as an integer). [Bug 648441]. * tests/parseExpr.test (parseExpr-19.1): Test for Bug 648441. 2002-12-09 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> * win/tclWinThrd.c (TclpMasterUnlock): * generic/tclThread.c (TclFinalizeThreadData): TclpMasterUnlock must exist and be called unconditional of TCL_THREADS. [Bug 651139] 2002-12-08 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com> * win/tclWinSock.c (SocketThreadExitHandler, InitSockets): Check that the tsdPtr is valid before dereferencing as we call it from the exit handler, too [Bug 650353]. Another WSAStartup() loaded version comparison byte swap issue fixed. Although 0x0101 byte swapped is still 0x0101, properly claiming which is major/minor is more correct. 2002-12-06 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> * generic/tclStubInit.c: regen * generic/tclIntPlatDecls.h: regen * generic/tclInt.decls: added TclWinResetInterface * win/tclWin32Dll.c (TclWinResetInterfaces): * win/tclWinInit.c (TclpSetInitialEncodings, WinEncodingsCleanup): add exit handler that resets the encoding information to a state where we can reuse Tcl. Following these changes, it is possible to reuse Tcl (following Tcl_FindExecutable or Tcl_CreateInterp) following a Tcl_Finalize. * generic/tclIOUtil.c (TclFinalizeFilesystem): reset statics to their original values on finalize to allow reuse of the library. 2002-12-04 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com> * win/tclWinPipe.c: reverted back to -r1.27 due to numerous test failures that need to be resolved first. The idea was good, but the details aren't. 2002-12-04 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com> * win/tclWinPipe.c (Tcl_WaitPid): When a process exits with an exception, pass this notice on to the caller with a SIG* code rather than truncating the exit code and missing the meaning. This allows TclCleanupChildren() to report "CHILDKILLED". This has a different behavior than unix in that closing the read pipe to a process sends the SIGPIPE signal which is returned as a SIGPIPE exit status. On windows, we send the process a CTRL_BREAK_EVENT and get back a CONTROL_C_EXIT which is documented to mean a SIGINT which seems wrong as a system, but is the correct exit status. 2002-12-04 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclIOUtil.c: fix to redirected 'load' in virtual filesystem for some Unix systems. * generic/tclEvent.c: the filesystem must be cleaned up before the encoding subsystem because it needs access to encodings. Fixes crash on exit observed in embedded applications. * generic/tclTestObj.c: patch omitted from previous change of 2002-11-13 2002-12-03 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> * generic/tclStubLib.c (Tcl_InitStubs): prevent the cached check of tclStubsPtr to allow for repeated load/unload of the Tcl dll by hosting apps. [Bug 615304] 2002-12-03 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com> * win/tclAppInit.c (sigHandler): Protect from trying to close a NULL handle. * win/tclWinPipe.c (PipeClose2Proc, TclpCreateProcess): Send a real Win32 signal (CTRL_C_EVENT) when the read channel is brought down to alert the child to close on its side. Start the process with CREATE_NEW_PROCESS_GROUP to allow the ability to send these signals. The following test case now brings down the child without the use of an external [kill] command. % set p [open "|[info name]" w+] file8d5380 % pid $p 2876 % close $p <- now doesn't block in Tcl_WaitPid() % * win/tclWinPipe.c (PipeClose2Proc): Changed CTRL_C_EVENT to CTRL_BREAK_EVENT as it can't be ignored by the child and proved to work on [open "|netstat 1" w+] where CTRL_C_EVENT didn't. 2002-11-27 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com> * win/tclWinPort.h: Don't turn off winsock prototypes! TclX didn't like it. Even though the core doesn't use the prototypes, do offer them. * win/tclWinSock.c: Removed shutdown() from the function table as it wasn't referenced anywhere and cleaned-up some casting that that wasn't needed. * win/tclWinSock.c: WSAStartup() loaded version comparison error which resulted in 2.0 looking less than 1.1. * win/tclWinChan.c (Tcl_MakeFileChannel): return of DuplicateHandle() incorrectly used [Bug 618852]. 2002-11-26 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> * generic/tclEncoding.c (TclFinalizeEncodingSubsystem): properly cleanup all encodings by using Tcl_FirstHashEntry in the while loop. * unix/Makefile.in (valgrind): add simple valgrind target * tests/exec.test: unset path var to allow singleproc testing * generic/tclInterp.c (AliasCreate): preserve/release interps to prevent possible FMR error in bad alias cases. 2002-11-26 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com> * win/tclWinPort.h: * win/tclWinSock.c: This patch does two things: 1) Cleans-up the winsock typedefs by using the typedefs provided by winsock2.h. This has no effect on how winsock is initialized; just makes the source code easier to read. [Patch 561305, 561301] 2) Revamps how the socket message handler thread is brought up and down to allow for cleaner exits without the use of TerminateThread(). TerminateThread is evil. No attempt has been made to resolve [Bug 593810] which may need a new channel driver version for adding a registering function within the transfered thread to init the handler thread. IOW, initialization of the TSD structure is getting bypassed through the thread extension's [thread::transfer] command. 2002-11-26 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com> * win/tclWinConsole.c: * win/tclWinPipe.c: * win/tclWinSerial.c: * win/tclWinSock.c: * win/tclWinThrd.c: * win/tclWinTime.c: General cleanup of all worker threads used by the channel drivers. Eliminates the normal case where the worker thread is terminated ('cept the winsock one). Instead, use kernel events to signal a clean exit. Only when the worker thread is blocked on an I/O call is the thread terminated. Essentially, this makes all other channel worker threads behave like the PipeReaderThread() function for it's cleaner exit behavior. This appears to fix [Bug 597924] but needs 3rd party confirmation to close the issue. 2002-11-26 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net> * win/README: Update msys build env URL. This release #4 build both tcl and tk without problems. 2002-11-22 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> * library/init.tcl: code cleanup to reduce use of * library/opt/optparse.tcl: string compare * tests/interp.test: interp-14.4 * generic/tclInterp.c (TclPreventAliasLoop): prevent seg fault when creating an alias command over the interp name. [Bug 641195] 2002-11-18 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> * generic/tclUtil.c (SetEndOffsetFromAny): handle integer offset after the "end-" prefix. * generic/get.test: * generic/string.test: * generic/tclObj.c (SetIntFromAny, SetWideIntFromAny): * generic/tclGet.c (TclGetLong, Tcl_GetInt): simplify sign handling before calling strtoul(l). [Bug 634856] 2002-11-18 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com> * win/tclWinThrd.c (Tcl_CreateThread/TclpThreadExit): Fixed improper compiler macros that missed the VC++ compiler. This resulted in VC++ builds using CreateThread()/ExitThread() in place of the proper _beginthreadex()/_endthreadex(). This was a large error and am surprised I missed seeing it earlier. 2002-11-13 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> * generic/regexpComp.test: added tests 22.* * generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileRegexpCmd): add left and right anchoring (^ and $) recognition and check starting or ending .* to extend the number of REs that can be compiled to string match or string equal. 2002-11-13 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclCmdMZ.c: * tests/trace.test: applied patch from Hemang Levana to fix [Bug 615043] in execution traces with 'return -code error'. * generic/tclTestObj.c: * tests/stringObj.test: added 'knownBug' test for [Bug 635200] * generic/tclStringObj.c: corrected typos in comments * generic/tclFileName.c: * tests/fileName.test: applied patch for bug reported against tclvfs concerning handling of Windows serial ports like 'com1', 'lpt3' by the virtual filesystem code. * doc/RegExp.3: clarification of the 'extendMatch' return values. 2002-11-11 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> * generic/tclUtil.c (Tcl_Backslash): use TclUtfToUniChar. (Tcl_StringCaseMatch): use TclUtfToUniChar and add further optimizations for the one-byte/char case. * generic/tclUtf.c: make use of TclUtfToUniChar macro throughout the functions, and add extra optimization to Tcl_NumUtfChars for one-byte/char case. * generic/tclVar.c (DisposeTraceResult, CallVarTraces): add proper static declarations. * generic/tclStringObj.c (Tcl_GetCharLength): optimize for the ascii char case. (Tcl_GetUniChar): remove unnecessary use of Tcl_UtfToUniChar. (FillUnicodeRep): Use TclUtfToUniChar. * generic/tclHash.c (HashStringKey): move string++ lower to save an instruction. * generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): improve INST_STR_CMP to use memcmp in the one-byte/char case, also use direct index for INST_STR_INDEX in that case. * generic/tclEncoding.c (UtfToUtfProc, UtfToUnicodeProc): (TableFromUtfProc, EscapeFromUtfProc): Use TclUtfToUniChar. (UnicodeToUtfProc, TableToUtfProc): add 1-byte char optimizations for Tcl_UniCharToUtf call. These improve encoded channel conversion speeds by up to 20%. * tests/split.test: added 1-char string split tests * generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_SplitObjCmd): Use TclUtfToUniChar. Also added a special case for single-ascii-char splits. (Tcl_StringObjCmd): Use TclUtfToUniChar. For STR_RANGE, support getting ranges of ByteArrays (reverts change from 2000-05-26). (TraceExecutionProc) add proper static declaration. * generic/tclInt.h: add macro version of Tcl_UtfToUniChar (TclUtfToUniChar) that does the one-byte utf-char check without calling Tcl_UtfToUniChar, for use by the core. This brings notable speedups for primarily ascii string handling. * generic/tcl.h (TCL_PATCH_LEVEL): bump to 8.4.1.1 for patchlevel only. This interim number will only be reflected by [info patchlevel] 2002-11-11 Kevin Kenny <kennykb@acm.org> * doc/Tcl.n: Corrected indentation of the new language. Oops. 2002-11-10 Kevin Kenny <kennykb@acm.org> * doc/Tcl.n: Added language to the Endekalogue to make it clear that substitutions always take place from left to right. [Bug 635644] 2002-11-06 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net> * changes: Note TclInExit TclInThreadExit changes. * generic/tclEvent.c (TclInExit, TclInThreadExit): Split out functionality of TclInExit to make it clear which one should be called in each situation. * generic/tclInt.decls: Declare TclInThreadExit. * generic/tclIntDecls.h: Regen. * generic/tclStubInit.c: Regen. * mac/tclMacChan.c (StdIOClose): * unix/tclUnixChan.c (FileCloseProc): * win/tclWinChan.c (FileCloseProc): * win/tclWinConsole.c (ConsoleCloseProc): * win/tclWinPipe.c (TclpCloseFile): * win/tclWinSerial.c (SerialCloseProc): Invoke the new TclInThreadExit method instead of TclInExit. 2002-11-06 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net> * unix/configure: Regen. * unix/tcl.m4 (SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS): Generate a fatal configure error if no ar program can be found on the path.

[Patch 479697] Also factored some additional macros that will be helpful for extension authors. Version grepping of tcl.h will need to be added to complete this. * win/buildall.vc.bat: Added more descriptive commentary. 2002-11-01 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com> * win/tclWinReg.c: Changed the Tcl_PkgProvide() line to declare the registry extension at version 1.1 from 1.0. 2002-10-31 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com> * library/word.tcl: Changed $tcl_platform to $::tcl_platform to avoid possible scope trouble. 2002-10-29 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net> * win/tclWinInt.h: * win/tclWin32Dll.c: added comments about certain NULL function pointers which will be filled in when Tcl_FindExecutable is called, so that users don't report invalid bugs on this topic.

[Tk Bug 592096] 2002-09-10 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net> * macosx/Tcl.pbproj/project.pbxproj: disabled building html documentation during embedded build. 2002-09-10 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net> * unix/Makefile.in: added DYLIB_INSTALL_DIR variable for macosx and set it to default value ${LIB_RUNTIME_DIR} * unix/tcl.m4 (Darwin): use DYLIB_INSTALL_DIR instead of LIB_RUNTIME_DIR in the -install_name argument to ld. * unix/configure: regen. * macosx/Tcl.pbproj/project.pbxproj: * macosx/Makefile: added support for building Tcl as an embedded framework, i.e. using an dyld install_name containing @executable_path/../Frameworks via the new DYLIB_INSTALL_DIR unix/Makefile variable. 2002-09-10 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> *** 8.4.0 TAGGED FOR RELEASE *** 2002-09-06 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * doc/file.n: Format correction, and clarified [file normalize] returns an absolute path. * doc/tcltest.n: Added examples section, as long promised. 2002-09-06 Reinhard Max <max@suse.de> * tests/tcltest.test: Added nonRoot flag to tests 8.3, 8.4, and 8.12. 2002-09-05 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * doc/tcltest.n: Clarified phrasing. * generic/tclBasic.c (TclRenameCommand,CallCommandTraces): * tests/trace.test (trace-27.1): Corrected memory leak when a rename trace deleted the command being traced. Test added. Thanks to Hemang Lavana for the fix. [Bug 604609] * generic/tclVar.c (TclDeleteVars): Corrected logic for setting the TCL_INTERP_DESTROYED flag when calling variable traces. [Tk Bug 605121] 2002-09-04 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclVar.c (DeleteArray): leak plug [Bug 604239].

[Bug 583445] * win/tclWinConsole.c (ConsoleCloseProc): only wait on writable pipe if there was something to write. This may prevent infinite wait on exit. * tests/exec.test: marked exec-18.1 unixOnly until the Windows incompatability (in the test, not the core) can be resolved. * tests/http.test (http-3.11): added close $fp that was causing an error on Windows because the file was not closed before deleting. * unix/tclUnixInit.c (Tcl_MacOSXGetLibraryPath): made this static function only appear when HAVE_CFBUNDLE is defined. 2002-08-31 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net> * unix/tcl.m4: added TK_SHLIB_LD_EXTRAS analogue of existing TCL_SHLIB_LD_EXTRAS for linker settings only used when linking Tk. * unix/configure: regen 2002-08-31 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net> *** macosx-8-4-branch merged into the mainline [Patch 602770] *** * generic/tcl.decls: added new macosx specific entry to stubs table. * tools/genStubs.tcl: added generation of platform guards for macosx. This is a little more complex than it seems, because MacOS X IS "unix" plus a little bit, for the purposes of Tcl. BUT unfortunately, Tk uses "unix" to mean X11. So added platform keys for macosx (the little added to "unix"), "aqua" and "x11" to distinguish these for Tk. * generic/tcl.h: added a #ifnded RESOURCE_INCLUDED so that tcl.h can be passed to the resource compiler. * generic/tcl.h: * generic/tclNotify.c: added a few Notifier procs, to be able to modify more bits of the Tcl notifier dynamically. Required to get Mac OS X Tk to live on top of the Tcl Unix threaded notifier. Changes the size of the Tcl_NotifierProcs structure, but doesn't move any elements around. * unix/tclUnixNotfy.c: moved the call to Tcl_ConditionNotify till AFTER we are done mucking with the pointer swap. Fixes cases where the thread waiting on the condition wakes & accesses the waitingListPtr before it gets reset, causing a hang. * library/auto.tcl (tcl_findLibrary): added checking the directories in the tcl_pkgPath for library files on macosx to enable support of the standard Mac OSX library locations * unix/Makefile.in: * unix/configure.in: * unix/tcl.m4: added MAC_OSX_DIR. Added PLAT_OBJS to the OBJS: there are some MacOS X specific files now for Tcl, and when I get he resource & applescript stuff ported over, and restore support for FindFiles, etc, there will be a few more. Added LD_LIBRARY_PATH_VAR configure variable to avoid having to set all possible LD_LIBRARY_PATH analogues on all platforms. LD_LIBRARY_PATH_VAR is "LD_LIBRARY_PATH" by default, "LIBPATH" on AIX, "SHLIB_PATH" on HPUX and "DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH" on Mac OSX. Added configure option to package Tcl as a framework on Mac OSX. * macosx/tclMacOSXBundle.c (new): support for finding Tcl extension packaged as 'bundles' in the standard Mac OSX library locations. * unix/tclUnixInit.c: added support for findig the tcl script library inside Tcl packaged as a framework on Mac OSX. * macosx/Tcl.pbproj/jingham.pbxuser (new): * macosx/Tcl.pbproj/project.pbxproj (new): project for Apple's ProjectBuilder IDE. * macosx/Makefile (new): simple makefile for building the project from the command line via the ProjectBuilder tool 'pbxbuild'. * unix/configure: * generic/tclStubInit.c: * generic/tclPlatDecls.h: regen 2002-08-29 Andreas Kupries <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net> * win/tclWinThrd.c (TclpFinalizeThreadData, TclWinFreeAllocCache): Applied patch for [Bug 599428] (sofer) 2002-08-28 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com> * generic/tclEnv.c: * unix/configure.in: * win/tclWinPort.h: putenv() on some systems copies the buffer rather than taking reference to it. This causes memory leaks and is know to effect mswindows (msvcrt) and NetBSD 1.5.2. This patch tests for this behavior and turns on -DHAVE_PUTENV_THAT_COPIES=1 when approriate. Thanks to David Welton for assistance. [Bug 414910] * unix/configure: regen'd 2002-08-28 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk> * doc/eval.n: Added mention of list command and corrected "SEE ALSO". * unix/configure.in: Cache handling of ac_cv_type_socklen_t was wrong. [Bug 600931] reported by John Ellson. Fixed by putting the brackets where they belong. 2002-08-26 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclCompCmds.c: fix for [Bug 599788] (error in element name causing segfault), reported by Tom Wilkason. Fixed by copying the tokens instead of the source string. 2002-08-26 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclThreadAlloc.c: small optimisation, reducing the new allocator's overhead. 2002-08-23 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclObj.c (USE_THREAD_ALLOC): fixed leak [Bug 597936]. Thanks to Zoran Vasiljevic. 2002-08-23 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclThreadAlloc.c (USE_THREAD_ALLOC): moving objects between caches as a block, instead of one-by-one. 2002-08-22 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclBasic.c: * generic/tclCmdMZ.c: fix for freed memory r/w in delete traces [Bug 589863], patch by Hemang Lavana. 2002-08-20 Andreas Kupries <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net> * win/Makefile.in (CFLAGS): * unix/Makefile.in (MEM_DEBUG_FLAGS): Added usage of @MEM_DEBUG_FLAGS@. * win/configure.in: * unix/configure.in: Added usage of SC_ENABLE_MEMDEBUG. * win/tcl.m4: * unix/tcl.m4: Added macro SC_ENABLE_MEMDEBUG. Allows a user of configure to (de)activate memory validation and debugging (TCL_MEM_DEBUG). No need to modify the makefile anymore. 2002-08-20 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclCkalloc.c: CONSTified MemoryCmd and CheckmemCmd. * README: Bumped version number to 8.4b3 to distinguish * generic/tcl.h: HEAD from the 8.4b2 release. * tools/tcl.wse.in: * unix/configure.in: * unix/tcl.spec: * win/README.binary: * win/configure.in: * unix/configure: autoconf * win/configure: * library/http/http.tcl: Corrected installation directory of * library/msgcat/msgcat.tcl: the package tcltest 2.2.

Fixes [Bug 596034] (lvirden) 2002-08-16 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk> * tests/fCmd.test: Added test to make sure that the cause of the problem is detectable with an unpatched Tcl. * doc/ObjectType.3: Added note on the root cause of this problem to the documentation, since it is possible for user code to trigger this sort of behaviour too. * generic/tclIOUtil.c (SetFsPathFromAny): Objects should only have their old representation deleted when we know that we are about to install a new one. This stops a weird TclX bug under Linux with certain kinds of memory debugging enabled which essentally came down to a double-free of a string. 2002-08-14 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclInt.h: * generic/tclObj.c: (code cleanup) factored the parts in the macros TclNewObj() / TclDecrRefCount() into a common part for all memory allocators and two new macros TclAllocObjStorage() / TclFreeObjStorage() that are specific to each allocator and fully describe the differences. Removed allocator-specific code from tclObj.c by using the macros. 2002-08-12 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclCmdMZ.c: fixing UMR in delete traces, [Bug 589863]. 2002-08-08 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com> * tools/man2help.tcl: Fixed $argv handling bug where if -bitmap wasn't specified $argc was off by one. 2002-08-08 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sourceforge.net> * tests/uplevel.test: added 6.1 to test [uplevel] with shadowed commands [Bug 524383] * tests/subst.test: added 5.8-10 as further tests for [Bug 495207] 2002-08-08 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * tests/README: Noted removal of defs.tcl. 2002-08-08 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> * doc/lsearch.n: corrected lsearch docs to use -inline in examples. *** 8.4b2 TAGGED FOR RELEASE *** * tests/fCmd.test: * tests/unixFCmd.test: updated tests for new link copy behavior. * generic/tclFCmd.c (CopyRenameOneFile): changed the behavior to follow links to endpoints and copy that file/directory instead of just copying the surface link. This means that trying to copy a link that has no endpoint (danling link) is an error. [Patch 591647] (darley) (CopyRenameOneFile): this is currently disabled by default until further issues with such behavior (like relative links) can be handled correctly. * tests/README: slight wording improvements 2002-08-07 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sourceforge.net> * docs/BoolObj.3: added description of valid string reps for a boolean object [Bug 584794] * generic/tclObj.c: optimised Tcl_GetBooleanFromObj and SetBooleanFromAny to avoid parsing the string rep when it can be avoided [Bugs 584650, 472576] 2002-08-07 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclCompile.h: * generic/tclObj.c: making tclCmdNameType static [Bug 584567] (dgp) 2002-08-07 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclObj.c (Tcl_NewObj): added conditional code for USE_THREAD_ALLOC; objects allocated through Tcl_NewObj() were otherwise being leaked. [Bug 587488] reported by Sven Sass. 2002-08-06 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclInt.decls: * unix/tclUnixThrd.c: Added stubs and implementations for non-threaded build for the tclUnixThrd.c procs TclpReaddir, TclpLocaltime, TclpGmtime and TclpInetNtoa. Fixes link errors in stubbed & threaded extensions that include tclUnixPort.h and use any of the procs readdir, localtime, gmtime or inet_ntoa (e.g. TclX 8.4) [Bug 589526] * generic/tclIntPlatDecls.h: * generic/tclStubInit.c: Regen. 2002-08-05 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl: The setup and cleanup scripts are now * library/tcltest/pkgIndex.tcl: skipped when a test is skipped, fixing * tests/tcltest.test: [Bug 589859].

Testsuite passed on linux/i386, compile-13.1 hung on linux/alpha. 2002-08-01 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclExecute.c: added a reference count for the complete execution stack, instead of Tcl_Preserve/Tcl_Release. 2002-08-01 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclCkalloc.c (TclFinalizeMemorySubsystem): Don't lock the ckalloc mutex before invoking the Tcl_DumpActiveMemory function since it also locks the same mutex. This code is only executed when "memory onexit filename" has been executed and Tcl is compiled with -DTCL_MEM_DEBUG. 2002-08-01 Reinhard Max <max@suse.de> * win/tclWinPort.h: The windows headers don't provide socklen_t, so we have to do it. 2002-07-31 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclInt.h (USE_THREAD_ALLOC): for unshared objects, TclDecrRefCount now frees the internal rep before the string rep - just like the non-macro Tcl_DecrRefCount/TclFreeObj [Bug 524802]. For the other allocators the fix was done on 2002-03-06. 2002-07-31 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclInterp.c: signed/unsigned comparison warning fixed (Vince Darley). 2002-07-31 Donal K.

Fixes [Bug 584603] partially. Added new test "io-60.1". Might need additional changes to Tcl_Main so that unprintable results are printed as binary data. 2002-07-29 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net> * unix/Makefile.in: Use CC_SEARCH_FLAGS instead of LD_SEARCH_FLAGS when linking with ${CC}. * unix/configure: Regen. * unix/configure.in: Don't subst CC_SEARCH_FLAGS or LD_SEARCH_FLAGS since this is now done in tcl.m4. * unix/tcl.m4 (SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS): Document and set CC_SEARCH_FLAGS whenever LD_SEARCH_FLAGS is set.

Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk> * generic/regc_locale.c (cclass): [[:xdigit:]] is only a defined concept on western characters, so should not allow any unicode digit, and hence number of ranges in [[:xdigit:]] is fixed. * tests/reg.test: Added test to detect the bug. * generic/regc_cvec.c (newcvec): Corrected initial size value in character vector structure. [Bug 578363] Many thanks to pvgoran@users.sf.net for tracking this down. 2002-07-28 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tcl.h: * generic/tclBasic.c: added the new flag TCL_EVAL_NO_TRACEBACK to the interface of the Tcl_Eval* functions. Modified the error message for too many nested evaluations. * generic/tclInterp.h: changed the Alias struct to be of variable length and store the prefix arguments directly (instead of a pointer to a Tcl_Obj list). Made AliasObjCmd call Tcl_EvalObjv instead of TclObjInvoke - thus making aliases trigger execution traces. [Bug 582522] * tests/interp.test: * tests/stack.test: adapted to the new error message. * tests/trace.test: added tests for aliases firing the exec traces. 2002-07-27 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net> * unix/Makefile.in: Revert fix for Tcl bug 529801 since it was incorrect and broke the build on other systems.

Move subst of a number of variables into tcl.m4 where they are defined. * unix/tcl.m4 (SC_ENABLE_SYMBOLS, SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS): Subst vars where they are defined. Add MAKE_LIB, MAKE_STUB_LIB, INSTALL_LIB, and INSTALL_STUB_LIB rules to deal with the ugly details of running ranlib on static libs at build and install time. Replace TCL_SHLIB_LD_EXTRAS with SHLIB_LD_FLAGS and use it when building a shared library. * unix/tclConfig.sh.in: Add TCL_CC_SEARCH_FLAGS. 2002-07-26 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclExecute.c: fixed Tcl_Obj leak in code corresponding to the macro NEXT_INST_V(x, 0, 1).

Supports creation of symbolic and * tests/fileName.test: hard links in the native filesystems and * tests/fileSystem.test: in vfs's, when the individual filesystem * generic/tclTest.c: supports the concept. * generic/tclCmdAH.c: * generic/tclIOUtil.c: * generic/tcl.h: * generic/tcl.decls: * doc/FileSystem.3: * doc/file.n: * mac/tclMacFile.c: * unix/tclUnixFile.c: * win/tclWinFile.c: Also enhanced speed of 'file normalize' on Windows 2002-06-20 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclBasic.c (TclEvalObjvInternal): fix for [Bug 571385] in the implementation of TIP#62 (command tracing). Vince Darley, Hemang Lavana & Don Porter: thanks. 2002-06-20 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclExecute.c (TclCompEvalObj): clarified and simplified the logic for compilation/recompilation. 2002-06-19 Joe English <jenglish@users.sourceforge.net> * doc/file.n: Fixed indentation. No substantive changes. 2002-06-19 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> * generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_RegexpObjCmd): get the resultPtr again as the Tcl_ObjSetVar2 may cause the result to change. [Patch 558324] (watson) 2002-06-19 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclExecute.c (TEBC): removing unused "for(;;)" loop; improved comments; re-indentation. 2002-06-18 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclExecute.c (TEBC): - elimination of duplicated code in the non-immediate INST_INCR instructions. - elimination of 103 (!) TclDecrRefCount macros. The different instructions now jump back to a common "DecrRefCount zone" at the top of the loop. The macro "ADJUST_PC" was replaced by two macros "NEXT_INST_F" and "NEXT_INST_V" that take three params (pcAdjustment, # of stack objects to discard, resultObjPtr handling flag). The only instructions that retain a TclDecrRefCount are INST_POP (for speed), the common code for the non-immediate INST_INCR, INST_FOREACH_STEP and the two INST_LSET. The object size of tclExecute.o was reduced by approx 20% since the start of the consolidation drive, while making room for some peep-hole optimisation at runtime. 2002-06-18 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclExecute.c (TEBC, INST_DONE): small bug in the panic code for tcl-stack corruption. 2002-06-17 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com> Trims to support the removal of RESOURCE_INCLUDED from rc scripts from [FRQ 565088]. * generic/tcl.h: moved the #ifndef RC_INVOKED start block up in the file. rc scripts don't need to know thread mutexes. * win/tcl.rc: * win/tclsh.rc: removed the #define RESOURCE_INCLUDED to let the built-in -DRC_INVOKED to the work. 2002-06-17 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> * doc/CrtTrace.3: Added TIP#62 implementation of command * doc/trace.n: execution tracing [FRQ 462580] (lavana). * generic/tcl.h: This includes enter/leave tracing as well * generic/tclBasic.c: as inter-procedure stepping. * generic/tclCmdMZ.c: * generic/tclCompile.c: * generic/tclExecute.c: * generic/tclInt.decls: * generic/tclInt.h: * generic/tclIntDecls.h: * generic/tclStubInit.c: * generic/tclVar.c: * tests/trace.test: 2002-06-17 Andreas Kupries <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net> * win/tclWinPipe.c (BuildCommandLine): Fixed [bug 554068] ([exec] on windows did not treat { in filenames well.). Bug reported by Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>, patch provided by Vince too. 2002-06-17 Joe English <jenglish@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tcl.h: #ifdef logic for K&R C backwards compatibility changed to assume modern C by default. See [FRQ 565088] for full details. 2002-06-17 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * doc/msgcat.n: Corrected en_UK references to en_GB. UK is not a country designation recognized in ISO 3166. * library/msgcat/msgcat.tcl: More Windows Registry locale codes from Bruno Haible. * doc/msgcat.n: * library/msgcat/msgcat.tcl: * library/msgcat/pkgIndex.tcl: * tests/msgcat.test: Revised locale initialization to interpret environment variable locale values according to XPG4, and to recognize the LC_ALL and LC_MESSAGES values over that of LANG. Also added many Windows Registry locale values to those recognized by msgcat. Revised tests and docs. Bumped to version 1.3. Thanks to Bruno Haible for the report and assistance crafting the solution. [Bug 525522, 525525] 2002-06-16 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclCompile.c (TclCompileTokens): a better algorithm for the previous bug fix. 2002-06-16 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclCompile.c (TclCompileTokens): * tests/compile.test: [Bug 569438] in the processing of dollar variables; report by Georgios Petasis. 2002-06-16 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclExecute.c: bug in the consolidation of the INCR_..._STK instructions; the bug could not be exercised as the (faulty) instruction INST_INCR_ARRAY_STK was never compiled-in (related to [Bug 569438]). 2002-06-14 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): runtime peep-hole optimisation of variables (INST_STORE, INST_INCR) and commands (INST_INVOKE); faster check for the existence of a catch. (TclExecuteByteCode): runtime peep-hole optimisation of comparisons. (TclExecuteByteCode): runtime peep-hole optimisation of INST_FOREACH - relies on peculiarities of the code produced by the bytecode compiler. 2002-06-14 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com> * win/rules.vc: The test for compiler optimizations was in error. Thanks goes to Roy Terry <royterry@earthlink.net> for his assistance with this. 2002-06-14 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk> * doc/trace.n, tests/trace.test: * generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_TraceObjCmd,TclTraceCommandObjCmd) (TclTraceVariableObjCmd): Changed references to "trace list" to "trace info" as mandated by TIP#102. 2002-06-13 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): consolidated code for the conditional branch instructions. 2002-06-13 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): fixed the previous patch - wouldn't compile with TCL_COMPILE_DEBUG set. 2002-06-13 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): consolidated the handling of exception returns to INST_INVOKE and INST_EVAL, as well as most of the code for INST_CONTINUE and INST_BREAK, in the new jump target "processExceptionReturn". 2002-06-13 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): consolidated variable handling opcodes, replaced redundant code with some 'goto'. All store/append/lappend opcodes on the same data type now share the main code; same with incr opcodes. * generic/tclVar.c: added the bit TCL_TRACE_READS to the possible flags to Tcl_SetVar2Ex - it causes read traces to be fired prior to setting the variable. This is used in the core for [lappend]. ***NOTE*** the usage of TCL_TRACE_READS in Tcl_(Obj)?GetVar.* is not documented; there, it causes the call to create the variable if it does not exist. The new usage in Tcl_(Obj)?SetVar.* remains undocumented too ... 2002-06-13 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net> * tests/fCmd.test: * tests/winFile.test: * tests/fileSystem.test: * generic/tclTest.c: * generic/tclCmdAH.c: * generic/tclIOUtil.c: * doc/FileSystem.3: * mac/tclMacFile.c: * unix/tclUnixFile.c: * win/tclWinFile.c: fixed up further so both compiles and actually works with VC++ 5 or 6. * win/tclWinInt.h: * win/tclWin32Dll.c: cleaned up code and vfs tests and added tests for the internal changes of 2002-06-12, to see whether WinTcl on NTFS can coexist peacefully with links in the filesystem. Added new test command 'testfilelink' to enable the newer code to be tested. * tests/fCmd.test: (made certain tests of 'testfilelink' not run on unix). 2002-06-12 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sourceforge.net> * tclBasic.c (Tcl_DeleteTrace): fixed [Bug 568123] (thanks to Hemang Lavana) 2002-06-12 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> * win/tclWinFile.c: corrected the symbolic link handling code to allow it to compile. Added real definition of REPARSE_DATA_BUFFER (found in winnt.h). Most of the added definitions appear to have correct, cross-Win-version equivalents in winnt.h and should be removed, but just making things "work" for now. 2002-06-12 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclIOUtil.c: * generic/tcl.decls: * generic/tclDecls.h: made code for Tcl_FSNewNativePath agree with man pages. * doc/FileSystem.3: clarified the circumstances under which certain functions are called in the presence of symlinks. * win/tclWinFile.c: * win/tclWinPort.h: * win/tclWinInt.h: * win/tclWinFCmd.c: Fix for Windows to allow 'file lstat', 'file type', 'glob -type l', 'file copy', 'file delete', 'file normalize', and all VFS code to work correctly in the presence of symlinks (previously Tcl's behaviour was not very well defined). This also fixes possible serious problems in all versions of WinTcl where 'file delete' on a NTFS symlink could delete the original, not the symlink. Note: symlinks cannot yet be created in pure Tcl. 2002-06-11 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclBasic.c: * generic/tclCompCmds.c: * generic/tclInt.h: reverted the new compilation functions; replaced by a more general approach described below. * generic/tclCompCmds.c: * generic/tclCompile.c: made *all* compiled variable access attempts create an indexed variable - even get or incr without previous set. This allows indexed access to local variables that are created and set at runtime, for example by [global], [upvar], [variable], [regexp], [regsub]. 2002-06-11 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sourceforge.net> * doc/global.n: * doc/info.n: * test/info.test: * generic/tclCmdIL.c: fix for [Bug 567386], [info locals] was reporting some linked variables. * generic/tclBasic.c: * generic/tclCompCmds.c: * generic/tclInt.h: added compile functions for [global], [variable] and [upvar]. They just declare the new local variables, the commands themselves are not compiled-in. This gives a notably faster read access to these linked variables. 2002-06-11 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclExecute.c: optimised algorithm for exception range lookup; part of [Patch 453709]. 2002-06-10 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net> * unix/tclUnixFCmd.c: fixed [Bug 566669] * generic/tclIOUtil.c: improved and sped up handling of native paths (duplication and conversion to normalized paths), particularly on Windows. * modified part of above commit, due to problems on Linux. Will re-examine bug report and evaluate more closely. 2002-06-07 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * tests/tcltest.test: More corrections to test suite so that tests of failing [test]s don't show up themselves as failing tests. 2002-06-07 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk> * generic/tclExecute.c: Tidied up headers in relation to float.h to cut the cruft and ensure DBL_MAX is defined since doubles seem to be the same size everywhere; if the assumption isn't true, the variant platforms had better have run configure... * unix/tclUnixPort.h (EOVERFLOW): Added code to define it if it wasn't previously defined. Also some other general tidying and adding of comments. [Bugs 563122, 564595] * compat/tclErrno.h: Added definition for EOVERFLOW copied from Solaris headers; I've been unable to find any uses of EFTYPE, which was the error code previously occupying the slot, in Tcl, or any definition of it in the Solaris headers. 2002-06-06 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net> * unix/dltest/Makefile.in: Remove hard coded CFLAGS=-g and add CFLAGS_DEBUG, CFLAGS_OPTIMIZE, and CFLAGS_DEFAULT varaibles.

Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk> * generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): * generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_StringObjCmd): Use the macro version. * generic/tclInt.h (TclUniCharNcmp): Optimised still further with a macro for use in sensitive places like tclExecute.c * generic/tclUtf.c (Tcl_UniCharNcmp): Use new flag to figure out when we can use an optimal comparison scheme, and default to the old scheme in other cases which is at least safe. * unix/configure.in (TCL_OPTIMIZE_UNICODE_COMPARE): New optional flag that indicates when we can use memcmp() to compare Unicode strings (i.e. when the high-byte of a Tcl_UniChar precedes the low-byte.) 2002-05-29 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> * generic/tclInt.decls: * generic/tclIntDecls.h: * generic/tclStubInit.c: * generic/tclUtf.c: added TclpUtfNcmp2 private command that mirrors Tcl_UtfNcmp, but takes n in bytes, not utf-8 chars. This provides a faster alternative for comparing utf strings internally. (Tcl_UniCharNcmp, Tcl_UniCharNcasecmp): removed the explicit end of string check as it wasn't correct for the function (by doc and logic). * generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_StringObjCmd): reworked the string equal comparison code to use TclpUtfNcmp2 as well as short-circuit for equal objects or unequal length strings in the equal case. Removed the use of goto and streamlined the other parts. * generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): added check for object equality in the comparison instructions. Added short-circuit for != length strings in INST_EQ, INST_NEQ and INST_STR_CMP. Reworked INST_STR_CMP to use TclpUtfNcmp2 where appropriate, and only use Tcl_UniCharNcmp when at least one of the objects is a Unicode obj with no utf bytes. * generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileStringCmd): removed error creation in code that no longer throws an error. * tests/string.test: * tests/stringComp.test: added more string comparison checks. * tests/clock.test: better qualified 9.1 constraint check for %s. 2002-05-28 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> * generic/tclThreadAlloc.c (TclpRealloc, TclpFree): protect against the case when NULL is based. * tests/clock.test: added clock-9.1 * compat/strftime.c: * generic/tclClock.c: * generic/tclInt.decls: * generic/tclIntDecls.h: * unix/tclUnixTime.c: fix for Windows msvcrt mem leak caused by using an env(TZ) setting trick for in clock format -gmt 1. This also makes %s seem to work correctly with -gmt 1 as well as making it a lot faster by avoid the env(TZ) hack. TclpStrftime now takes useGMT as an arg.

More changes need to done to the makehelp target to get to stop leaving build files in the tools/ directory. This does not address the syntax errors in the man files. Having the contents of tcl.hpj(.in) inside makefile.vc allows for version numbers to be replaced with macros. The new nmakehlp.c is built by rules.vc in preprocessing and removes the need to use tricky shell syntax that wasn't compatible on Win9x systems. Clean targets made Win9x complient.

Removed inconsistency betweens docs and the Tcl_Filesystem structure. Also fixed [Bug 523217] and corrected file normalization on Unix so that it expands symbolic links. Added some new tests of the filesystem code (in the new file 'fileSystem.test'), and some extra tests for correct handling of symbolic links. Fix to [Bug 530960] which shows up on Win98. Made comparison with ".com" case insensitive in tclWinPipe.c ***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***: But only between alpha releases (users of the new Tcl_Filesystem lookup table in Tcl 8.4a4 need to handle the new way in which Tcl may call Tcl_FSMatchInDirectory, and 'file normalize' on unix now behaves correctly).

[Bug 520304] * generic/tclDecls.h: make genstubs * generic/tclMain.c (Tcl_Main,StdinProc): Corrected some reference count management errors on the interactive command Tcl_Obj found by Purify. Thanks to Jeff Hobbs for the report and assistance. 2002-02-27 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> * generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_EvalTokensStandard): corrected mem leak in error case. * generic/tclTest.c (TestStatProc[123]): correct harmless UMRs. * generic/tclLink.c (Tcl_LinkVar): correct mem leak in error case. 2002-02-27 Andreas Kupries <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net> * tests/socket.test (2.7): Accepted and applied patch for [Bug 523470] provided by Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> to avoid timing problems in that test. * unix/tclUnixChan.c (TclpOpenFileChannel): Added code to regonize "/dev/tty" (by name) and to not handle it as tty / serial line. This is the controlling terminal and is special. Setting it into raw mode as is done for other tty's is a bad idea. This is a hackish fix for expect [Bug 520624]. The fix has limitation: Tcl_MakeFileChannel handles tty's specially too, but is unable to recognize /dev/tty as it only gets a file descriptor, and no name for it. 2002-02-26 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> * generic/tclCmdAH.c (StoreStatData): corrected mem leak. * generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_RegsubObjCmd): prevent obj leak in remedial regsub case. * generic/tclFileName.c (Tcl_TranslateFileName): decr refcount for error case to prevent mem leak. * generic/tclVar.c (Tcl_ArrayObjCmd): removed extra obj allocation. * unix/tclUnixSock.c (Tcl_GetHostName): added an extra gethostbyname check to guard against failure with truncated names returned by uname. * unix/configure: * unix/tcl.m4 (SC_SERIAL_PORT): added sys/modem.h check and defined _XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED for HP-11 to get updated header decls. * unix/tclUnixChan.c: added Unix implementation of TIP #35, serial port support. [Patch 438509] (schroedter) 2002-02-26 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclCmpCmds.c: (bugfix to the bugfix, hopefully the last) Bugfix to the new [for] compiling code: was setting a exceptArray parameter using another param which wasn't yet initialised, thus filling it with noise. 2002-02-25 Andreas Kupries <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net> * mac/tclMacSock.c (TcpGetOptionProc): Changed to recognize the option "-error". Essentially ignores the option, always returning an empty string. 2002-02-25 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> * doc/Alloc.3: * doc/LinkVar.3: * doc/ObjectType.3: * doc/PkgRequire.3: * doc/Preserve.3: * doc/TCL_MEM_DEBUG.3: Updated documentation to describe the ckalloc, ckfree, ckrealloc, attemptckalloc, and attemptckrealloc macros, and to accurately describe when and how they are used. [Bug 497459] (dgp) * generic/tclHash.c (AllocArrayEntry, AllocStringEntry): Before invoking ckalloc when creating a Tcl_HashEntry, check that the amount of memory being allocated is at least as large as sizeof(Tcl_HashEntry). The previous code was allocating memory regions that were one or two bytes short. [Bug 521950] (dejong) 2002-02-25 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_EvalEx): avoiding a buffer overrun reported by Joe English, and restoring tcl7.6 behaviour for [subst]: badly terminated nested scripts will raise an error and not be evaluated. [Bug 495207] 2002-02-25 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * unix/tclUnixPort.h: corrected strtoll prototype mismatch on Tru64. * compat/strtod.c (strtod): simplified #includes * compat/strtol.c (strtol): gather result in a long before returning as a long: necessary on platforms where sizeof(int) != sizeof(long). 2002-02-25 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net> * unix/tclLoadDyld.c: updated to use Mac OS X 10.1 dyld APIs that have more libdl-like semantics. [Bug 514392] 2002-02-25 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclCompCmds: fixing a bug in patch dated 2002-02-22, in the code for [for] and [while]. Under certain conditions, for long bodies, the exception range parameters were badly computed. Tests forthcoming: I still can't reproduce the conditions in the testsuite (!), although the bug (with assorted segfault or panic!) can be triggered from the console or with the new parse.bench in tclbench. 2002-02-25 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk> * compat/strtoul.c, compat/strtol.c, compat/strtod.c: Added UCHAR, CONST and #includes to clean up GCC output. 2002-02-23 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * compat/strtoull.c (strtoull): * compat/strtoll.c (strtoll): * compat/strtoul.c (strtoul): Fixed failure to handle leading sign symbols '+' and '-' and '0X' and raise overflow errors. [Bug 440916] Also corrects prototype and errno problems. 2002-02-23 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net> * configure: Regen. * unix/tcl.m4 (SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS): Link with -n32 instead of -32 when building on IRIX64-6.* system. [Bug 521707] 2002-02-22 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclInt.h: * generic/tclObj.c: renamed global variable emptyString -> tclEmptyString because it is no longer static. * generic/tclPkg.c: Fix for panic when library is loaded on a platform without backlinking without proper use of stubs. [Bug 476537] 2002-02-22 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> * tests/regexpComp.test: updated regexp-11.[1-4] to match changes in regexp.test for new regsub syntax * unix/configure: * unix/tcl.m4: added --enable-64bit support for AIX-4 (using -q64 flag) when using IBM's xlc compiler. * tests/safe.test: updated safe-8.5 and safe-8.7 * library/safe.tcl (CheckFileName): removed the limit on sourceable file names (was only *.tcl or tclIndex files with no more than one dot and 14 chars). There is enough internal protection in a safe interpreter already. Fixes [Tk Bug 521560]. 2002-02-22 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclCompCmds: [FR 465811]. Optimising [if], [for] and [while] for constant conditions; in addition, [for] and [while] are now compiled with the "loop rotation" optimisation (thanks to Kevin Kenny). 2002-02-22 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk> --- TIP#76 CHANGES --- * generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_RegsubObjCmd): Final-argument-less [regsub] returns the modified string. * doc/regsub.n: Updated docs. * tests/regexp.test: Updated and added tests. * compat/strtoll.c (strtoll): * compat/strtoull.c (strtoull): * unix/tclUnixPort.h: * win/tclWinPort.h: Const-ing 64-bit compatability declarations. Note that the return pointer is non-const because it is entirely legal for the functions to be called from somewhere that owns the string being passed. Fixes problem reported by Larry Virden. 2002-02-21 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com> * win/mkd.bat (removed): * win/coffbase.txt (new): * win/makefile.bc: * win/makefile.vc: Changed the 'setup' target to stop using the mkd.bat file and just make the directory right in the rule. Same change to makefile.bc. configure.in nor Makefile.in use it. coffbase.txt will be the master list for our "prefered base addresses" set by the linker. This should improve load-time (NT only) by avoiding relocations. Submissions to the list by extension authors are encouraged. Added a 'tidy' target to compliment 'clean' and 'hose' to remove just the outputs. Also removed the $(winlibs) macro as it wasn't being used. Stuff left to do: 1) get the winhelp target to stop building in the tools/ directory. 2) stop using rmd.bat 3) add more dependacy rules. * win/tclAppInit.c: Reverted back to -r1.6, as the header file change to tclPort.h won't allow for easy embedded support outside of the source dist. Thanks to Don Porter for pointing this out to me. 2002-02-21 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com> * win/makefile.vc: * win/rules.vc: Added a new "loimpact" option that sets the -ws:aggressive linker option. Off by default. It's said to keep the heap use low at the expense of alloc speed. * win/tclAppInit.c: Changed #include "tcl.h" to be tclPort.h to remove the raw windows.h include. tclPort.h brings in windows.h already and lessens the pre-compiled-header mush and the randomly useless #pragma comment (lib,...) references throughout the big windows.h tree (as observed at high linker warning levels). 2002-02-21 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk> * generic/tcl.h: Better guessing of LP64/ILP32 architecture, but now sensitive to presence of (suitable) <limits.h> 2002-02-20 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tcl.decls (Tcl_RegExpRange,Tcl_GetIndexFromObjStruct): Overlooked a few source incompatibilities. Now using CONST84. * generic/tclDecls.h: make genstubs * generic/tcl.h (Tcl_CmdObjTraceProc): silence warning from Sun Workshop compiler. 2002-02-20 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com> * win/buildall.vc.bat: * win/makefile.vc: * win/rules.vc: General clean-ups. Added compiler and linker tests for a) the pentium 0x0F errata, b) optimizing (not all have this), and c) linker v6 section alignment confusion. All these are tested first to make sure any D4002 or LNK1117 warnings aren't displayed. The pentium 0x0F errata is a recommended switch. The v5 linker's section alignment default is 512, but the v6 linker was changed to 4096 in an attempt to speed loading on Win98. I changed the default to always be 512 across both linkers, unless linking statically, then 4096 is used for the claimed speed effect. Using a 512 alignment saves 12k bytes of dead space in the DLL. Added IA64 B-stepping errata switch when the compiler supports it. Added profiling to $(lflags) when requested and also removed the explict -entry option as the default works fine as is. Removed win/tclWinInit.c from the special case section to let it use the common implicit rule as the $(EXTFLAGS) macro it had was never referenced anywhere. 2002-02-20 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk> * generic/tcl.h: Added code to guess the correct settings for TCL_WIDE_INT_IS_LONG and TCL_WIDE_INT_TYPE when configure doesn't tell us them, as can happen with extensions. 2002-02-19 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk> * doc/format.n: Updated docs to list the specification. * generic/tclCmdAH.c (Tcl_FormatObjCmd): Made behaviour on 64-bit platforms correctly meet the specification, that %d works with the native word-sized integer, instead of trying to guess (wrongly) from the value being passed. 2002-02-19 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * changes: First draft of updated changes for 8.4a4 release. 2002-02-15 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> * unix/tclUnixPort.h: add strtoll/strtoull declarations for platforms that do not define them. * generic/tclIndexObj.c (STRING_AT): removed ptrdiff_t cast and use of VOID* in default case (GNU-ism). 2002-02-15 Kevin Kenny <kennykb@acm.org> * compat/strtoll.c: * compat/strtoul.c: * compat/strtoull.c: * generic/tclIOUtil.c: * generic/tclPosixStr.c: * generic/tclTest.c: * generic/tclTestObj.c: * tests/get.test: * win/Makefile.vc: Further tweaks to the TIP 72 patch to make it compile under VC++. 2002-02-15 Andreas Kupries <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net> * tclExecute.c: * tclIOGT.c: * tclIndexObj.c: Touchups to the TIP 72 patch to make it compileable under Windows again. The changes are not complete, there is one nasty regarding _stati64 2002-02-15 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk> +----------------------+ | TIP #72 IMPLEMENTED. | +----------------------+ There are a lot of changes from this TIP, so please see http://tip.tcl.tk/72.html for discussion of backward-compatability issues, but the main ones modifications are in: * generic/tcl.h: New types. * generic/tcl.decls: New public functions. * generic/tclExecute.c: 64-bit aware bytecode engine. * generic/tclBinary.c: 64-bit handling in [binary] command. * generic/tclScan.c: 64-bit handling in [scan] command. * generic/tclCmdAH.c: 64-bit handling in [file] and [format] commands. * generic/tclBasic.c: New "wordSize" entry in ::tcl_platform. * generic/tclFCmd.c: Large-file support (with many consequences.) * generic/tclIO.c: Large-file support (with many consequences.) * compat/strtoll.c, compat/strtoull.c: New support functions. * unix/tcl.m4, unix/configure: 64-bit support and greatly enhanced cacheing. Most other changes, including all those in doc/* and test/* as well as the majority in the platform directories, follow on from these. Also coming out of the woodwork: * generic/tclIndex.c: Better support for Cray PVP. * win/tclWinMtherr.c: Better Borland support. Note that, in a number of places through the Unix part of the platform support, there are Tcl_Platform* references. These are expanded into the correct way to call that particular underlying function, i.e. with or without a '64' suffix, and should be used by people working on the core in preference to the API functions they overlay so that the code remains portable depending on the presence or absence of 64-bit support on the underlying platform. ***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***: Extracted from the TIP SUMMARY OF INCOMPATIBILITIES AND FIXES ====================================== The behaviour of expressions containing constants that appear positive but which have a negative internal representation will change, as these will now usually be interpreted as wide integers. This is always fixable by replacing the constant with int(constant). Extensions creating new channel types will need to be altered as different types are now in use in those areas. The change to the declaration of Tcl_FSStat and Tcl_FSLstat (which are the new preferred API in any case) are less serious as no non-alpha releases have been made yet with those API functions. Scripts that are lax about the use of the l modifier in format and scan will probably need to be rewritten. This should be very uncommon though as previously it had absolutely no effect. Extensions that create new math functions that take more than one argument will need to be recompiled (the size of Tcl_Value changes), and functions that accept arguments of any type (TCL_EITHER) will need to be rewritten to handle wide integer values. (I do not expect this to affect many extensions at all.) 2002-02-14 Andreas Kupries <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclIOCmd.c (Tcl_GetsObjCmd): Trivial fix for [Bug 517503], a memory leak reported by Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sourceforge.net>. The leak happens if an error occurs for "set var [gets $chan]" and leak one empty object. 2002-02-12 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com> * djgpp/ (new directory) * djgpp/Makefile (new): * unix/tclAppInit.c: * unix/tclMtherr.c: * unix/tclUnixFCmd.c: * unix/tclUnixFile.c: * unix/tclUnixInit.c: * unix/tclUnixPort.h: Early stage of DJGPP support for building Tcl on DOS. Dynamic loading isn't working, yet. Requires watt32 for the TCP/IP stack. No autoconf, yet. Barely tested, but makes a working exe that runs Tcl in protected-mode, flat memory. [exec] and pipes will need the most work as multi-tasking on DOS has to be carefully. 2002-02-10 Kevin Kenny <kennykb@acm.org> * doc/CrtObjCmd.3: * doc/CrtTrace.3: * generic/tcl.decls: * generic/tcl.h: * generic/tclBasic.c: * generic/tclInt.h: * generic/tclTest.c: * tests/basic.test: Added Tcl_CreateObjTrace, Tcl_GetCommandInfoFromToken and Tcl_SetCommandInfoFromToken. (TIPs #32 and #79.) * generic/tclDecls.h: * generic/tclStubInit.c: Regenerated Stubs tables. 2002-02-08 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> * unix/configure: * unix/tcl.m4: added -pthread for FreeBSD to EXTRA_CFLAGS and LDFLAGS. Also triggered nodots only for FreeBSD-3. Added AC_DEFINE(_POSIX_PTHREAD_SEMANTICS) for Solaris. * unix/tclUnixPort.h: * unix/tclUnixThrd.c: added thread-safe versions of readdir, localtime, gmtime and inet_ntoa for threaded build. (jgdavidson) * generic/tclScan.c (Tcl_ScanObjCmd): prevented ckfree being called on a pointer to NULL. 2002-02-07 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * doc/DString.3: * doc/Encoding.3: * doc/GetCwd.3: * doc/SplitPath.3: * doc/Translate.3: * doc/Utf.3: * generic/tcl.decls: * generic/tcl.h: * generic/tclEncoding.c: * generic/tclEnv.c: * generic/tclFileName.c: * generic/tclIOUtil.c: * generic/tclUtf.c: * generic/tclUtil.c: * mac/tclMacInit.c: * unix/tclUnixFile.c: * unix/tclUnixInit.c: * unix/tclUnixPipe.c: * win/tclWin32Dll.c: * win/tclWinFCmd.c: * win/tclWinFile.c: * win/tclWinInit.c: Partial TIP 27 rollback. Following routines restored to return (char *): Tcl_DStringAppend, Tcl_DStringAppendElement, Tcl_JoinPath, Tcl_TranslateFileName, Tcl_ExternalToUtfDString, Tcl_UtfToExternalDString, Tcl_UniCharToUtfDString, Tcl_GetCwd, Tcl_WinTCharToUtf. Also restored Tcl_WinUtfToTChar to return (TCHAR *) and Tcl_UtfToUniCharDString to return (Tcl_UniChar *). Modified some callers. This change recognizes that Tcl_DStrings are de-facto white-box objects. * generic/tclDecls.h: * generic/tclPlatDecls.h: make genstubs * generic/tclCmdMZ.c: corrected use of C++-style comment. 2002-02-06 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> * tests/scan.test: * generic/tclScan.c (Tcl_ScanObjCmd): corrected scan 0x... %x handling that didn't accept the 0x as a prelude to a base 16 number. [Bug 495213] * generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileRegexpCmd): made early check for bad RE to stop checking further. * generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_RegsubObjCmd): added special case to search for simple 'string map' style regsub calls. Delayed creation of resultPtr object until an initial match is made, as the input string object can then be reused for no matches. (Tcl_StringObjCmd): optimization improvements to the STR_MAP algorithm for zero-length and nocase cases. * tests/regexp.test: * tests/regexpComp.test: extra code coverage tests. * tests/string.test: added 10.18 and 10.19 extra tests. * generic/regc_locale.c (casecmp): slight performance improvement. 2002-02-05 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * library/http/http.tcl: * library/http/pkgIndex.tcl: Corrected use of http::error when ::error was intended. Bump to http 2.4.2. 2002-02-04 Andreas Kupries <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net> * unix/tclUnixChan.c (FileOutputProc): Fixed [bug 465765] reported by Dale Talcott <daletalcott@users.sourceforge.net>. Avoid writing nothing into a file as STREAM based implementations will consider this a EOF (if the file is a pipe). Not done in the generic layer as this type of writing is actually useful to check the state of a socket. * doc/open.n: Fixed [Bug 511540], added cross-reference to 'pid' as the command to use to retrieve the pid of a command pipeline created via 'open'. 2002-02-01 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> * generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_RegexpObjCmd): handle quirky about case earlier to avoid shimmering problem. 2002-02-01 Andreas Kupries <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net> * tests/io.test: io-39.22 split into two tests, one platform dependent, the other not. -eofchar is not empty on the windows platform. 2002-02-01 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclTest.c: fix to picky windows compiler problem with the 'MainLoop' function declaration. 2002-01-31 Andreas Kupries <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net> * win/tclWinFCmd.c: TIP 27: Applied patch fixing CONST warnings on behalf of Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>. 2002-01-30 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tcl.decls: * generic/tcl.h: * generic/tclInt.h: For each interface identified in the TIP 27 changes below as a POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY, the source of the incompatibility has been parameterized so that it can be removed. When compiling extension code against the Tcl header files, use the compiler flag -DUSE_NON_CONST to remove the irresolvable source incompatibilities introduced by the TIP 27 changes. Resolvable changes are left for extension authors to resolve. * generic/tclDecls.h: make genstubs 2002-01-30 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net> * doc/FileSystem.3: added documentation for 3 public functions which had been overlooked. Fixes [Bug 507701] * unix/mkLinks: make mklinks 2002-01-29 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> * tests/regexpComp.test: * generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileRegexpCmd): enhanced to support -nocase and -- options. 2002-01-28 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net> * unix/tcl.m4 (SC_LOAD_TCLCONFIG): * win/tcl.m4 (SC_LOAD_TCLCONFIG): Set TCL_LIB_SPEC, TCL_STUB_LIB_SPEC, and TCL_STUB_LIB_PATH to the values of TCL_BUILD_LIB_SPEC, TCL_BUILD_STUB_LIB_SPEC, and TCL_BUILD_STUB_LIB_PATH when tclConfig.sh is loaded from the build directory. A Tcl extension should make use of the non-build versions of these variables since they will work in both cases. This modification was described in TIP #34. 2002-01-28 Jeff Hobbs <jeffh@ActiveState.com> * win/tclWinReg.c (regConnectRegistryProc,RecursiveDeleteKey) (DeleteKey,GetKeyNames,GetType,GetValue,OpenSubKey,SetValue): redid the CONSTification as previous changes caused failing tests. * tests/regexpComp.test (new): * generic/tclInt.h: * generic/tclBasic.c: added TclCompileRegexpCmd entry * generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileStringCmd): corrected to return TCL_OUT_LINE_COMPILE instead of TCL_ERROR for parsing errors, so it only throws the error for runtime compile, in case the user modifies 'string'. (TclCompileRegexpCmd): first try at a byte-compiled regexp command. It handles static strings and ^$ bounded static strings. (TclCompileAppendCmd): made TclPushVarName call always use TCL_CREATE_VAR as numWords is always > 2 at that point. * generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode:INST_LIST): correct possibly dangerous decr in macro call. * win/tclWinInit.c (TclpFindVariable): CONSTification touch-up * win/tclWinReg.c (OpenSubKey): corrected bug introduced in CONSTification that dropped pointer reference. * ChangeLog.2000 (new file): * ChangeLog: broke changes from 2000 into ChangeLog.2000 to reduce size of the main ChangeLog. 2002-01-28 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com> * generic/tclPlatDecls.h: Added preprocessor logic to force a typedef of TCHAR when __STDC__ is defined when using the uncommon -Za compiler switch with the microsoft compiler. 2002-01-27 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * doc/package.n: Documented global namespace context for script evaluation by [package require]. 2002-01-27 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclInt.decls: * generic/tclIntPlatDecls.h: * mac/tclMacChan.c: * mac/tclMacFCmd.c: * mac/tclMacFile.c: * mac/tclMacInit.c: * mac/tclMacLoad.c: * mac/tclMacResource.c: * mac/tclMacSock.c: TIP 27 CONSTification induced changes * tests/event.test: * tests/main.test: added catches/constraints to test that use features that don't exist on the mac. 2002-01-25 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net> Make -eofchar and -translation options read only for server sockets.

[Patch 502488] 2002-01-21 Andreas Kupries <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclIO.c (WriteChars): Fix for [Bug 506297], reported by Martin Forssen <ruric@users.sourceforge.net>. The encoding chosen in the script exposing the bug writes out three intro characters when TCL_ENCODING_START is set, but does not consume any input as TCL_ENCODING_END is cleared. As some output was generated the enclosing loop calls UtfToExternal again, again with START set. Three more characters in the out and still no use of input ... To break this infinite loop we remove TCL_ENCODING_START from the set of flags after the first call (no condition is required, the later calls remove an unset flag, which is a no-op). This causes the subsequent calls to UtfToExternal to consume and convert the actual input. 2002-01-21 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> * generic/tclTest.c: Converted declarations of TestReport file system to more portable form.

Before the patch the generic I/O layer held an unannounced reference to the interp result to store the read line into. This unfortunately has disastrous results if the channel driver executes a Tcl script to perform its operation, this freeing the interp result. In that case we are dereferencing essentially a dangling reference. It is not truly dangling because the object is in the free list, but this only causes us to smash the free list and have the error occur later somewhere else. The patch simply creates a new object for the line and later sets it into the interp result when we are done with reading. 2002-01-16 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net> * unix/tcl.m4 (SC_LOAD_TCLCONFIG): * win/tcl.m4 (SC_LOAD_TCLCONFIG): Subst TCL_DBGX into TCL_STUB_LIB_FILE and TCL_STUB_LIB_FLAG variables so that an extension does not need to subst TCL_DBGX into its makefile.

Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk> * tests/basic.test (basic-39.4): Greatly simplified test while still leaving it so that it crashes when run without the fix to the [foreach] implementation. * generic/tclCmdAH.c (Tcl_ForeachObjCmd): Stopped [Bug 494348] from happening by not trying to be so clever with cacheing; if nothing untoward is happening anyway, the less efficient technique will only add a few instruction cycles (one function call and a few derefs/assigns per list per iteration, with no change in the number of tests) and if something odd *is* going on, the code is now far more robust. * tests/basic.test (basic-39.4): Reproducable script from [Bug 494348] 2002-01-02 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk> * tests/util.test (Wrapper_Tcl_StringMatch,util-5.*): Rewrote so the test is performed with the right internal function since [string match] no longer uses Tcl_StringCaseMatch internally. * tests/string.test (string-11.51): * generic/tclUtf.c (Tcl_UniCharCaseMatch): * generic/tclUtil.c (Tcl_StringCaseMatch): Fault with matching case-insensitive non-ASCII patterns containing upper case characters.
