* win/tclWin32Dll.c (DllMain): Add HAVE_NO_SEH blocks in place of
__try and __except statements to support gcc builds. This is needed
after David's changes on 2003-12-21. [Patch 858493]
2003-12-23 David Gravereaux <[email protected]>
* generic/tclAlloc.c: All uses of 'panic' (the macro) changed to
* generic/tclBasic.c: 'Tcl_Panic' (the function). The #define of

2003-12-22 David Gravereaux <[email protected]>
* win/nmakehlp.c:
* win/rules.vc: New feature for extensions that use rules.vc. Now
reads header files for version strings. No more hard coding
TCL_VERSION = 8.5 and having to edit it when you swap cores.
* win/makefile.vc: VERSION macro now set by reading tcl.h for it.
* generic/tcl.h: Removed note that makefile.vc needs to have a version
number changed.
2003-12-21 David Gravereaux <[email protected]>
* win/tclWin32Dll.c: Structured Exception Handling added around
Tcl_Finalize called from DllMain's DLL_PROCESS_DETACH. 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 has not been
added yet. This is a first part change for [Patch 858493]
2003-12-17 Daniel Steffen <[email protected]>

properly refcounted path object. [Bug 861515]
2003-12-16 Vince Darley <[email protected]>
* tests/fCmd.test: marking fCmd-9.14.2, as nonPortable, since on
Solaris one can change the name of the current directory with 'file
rename'.
* doc/FileSystem.3: clarified documentation on ownership of return
objects/strings of some Tcl_FS* calls.
2003-12-16 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
* generic/tclThreadAlloc.c (binfo): Made variable file-local.
2003-12-15 David Gravereaux <[email protected]>
* win/tcl.rc:
* win/tclsh.rc: Slight modification to the STRINGIFY macro to support
Borland's rc tool.
* win/tclWinFile.c (TclpUtime) : utimbuf struct not a problem with
Borland.
* win/tclWinTime.c (TclpGetDate) : Borland's localtime() has a slight
behavioral difference.
From Helmut Giese <[email protected]> [Patch 758097].
2003-12-14 David Gravereaux <[email protected]>
* generic/tclInt.decls: commented-out entry for TclpCheckStackSpace,
removing it from the Stubs table. It's already declared in tclInt.h
and labeled as a function that is not to be exported. Regened tables.
2003-12-14 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_SwitchObjCmd): TIP#75 Implementation
* tests/switch.test: Can now get submatch information when using
* doc/switch.n: -regexp matching in [switch].
2003-12-14 Vince Darley <[email protected]>
* generic/tclPathObj.c: complete rewrite of generic file normalization
code to cope with links followed by '..'. [Bug 849514], and parts of
[Bug 859251]
2003-12-12 David Gravereaux <[email protected]>
* win/tclWinChan.c: Win32's SetFilePointer() takes LONGs not DWORDs (a
signed/unsigned mismatch). Redid local vars to avoid all casting
except where truly required.
2003-12-12 Vince Darley <[email protected]>
* generic/tclCmdAH.c: fix to normalization of non-existent user name
('file normalize ~nobody') [Bug 858937]
* doc/file.n: clarify behaviour of 'file link' when the target is not
an absolute path.
* doc/filename.n: correct documentation to say that Windows Tcl does
handle '~user', for recent Windows releases, and clarified distinction
between MacOS 'classic' and MacOS X.
* doc/glob.n: clarification of glob's behaviour when returning
filenames starting with a '~'.
* tests/fileSystem.test:
* tests/fileName.test: new tests added for the normalization problem
above and other recentlt reported issues.
* win/tclWinFile.c: corrected unclear comments
* unix/tclUnixFile.c: allow creation of relative links. [Bug 833713]
2003-12-11 David Gravereaux <[email protected]>
* win/tclWinSock.c (SocketThreadExitHandler) : added a TerminateThread
fallback just in case the socket handler thread is really in a paused
state. This can happen when Tcl is being unloaded by the OS from an
exception handler. See MSDN docs on DllMain, it states this behavior.
2003-12-09 Jeff Hobbs <[email protected]>
* unix/configure:
* unix/tcl.m4: updated OpenBSD build configuration based on
[Patch #775246] (cassoff)
2003-12-09 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
* unix/tclUnixPort.h: #ifdef'd out declarations of errno which are
* tools/man2tcl.c: known to cause problems with recent glibc.
[Bug 852369]
2003-12-09 Vince Darley <[email protected]>
* win/tclWinFile.c: fix to NT file permissions code [Bug 855923]
* tests/winFile.test: added tests for NT file permissions - patch and
test scripts supplied by Benny.
* tests/winFCmd.test: fixed one test for when not running in C:/
2003-12-02 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
* generic/tclBinary.c (DeleteScanNumberCache, ScanNumber): Made the
numeric scan-value cache have proper references to the objects within
it so strange patterns of writes won't cause references to freed
objects. Thanks to Paul Obermeir for the report. [Bug 851747]
2003-12-01 Miguel Sofer <[email protected]>
* doc/lset.n: fix typo [Bug 852224]
2003-11-24 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* generic/tclParse.c: Corrected faulty check for trailing white
space in {expand} parsing. Thanks Andreas Leitgeb. [Bug 848262]

2003-11-24 Vince Darley <[email protected]>
* generic/tclPathObj.c: fix to [Bug 845778] - Infinite recursion on
[cd] (Windows only bug), for which new tests have just been added.
2003-11-21 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* tests/winFCmd.test (winFCmd-16.10,11): Merged new tests from
core-8-4-branch.
2003-11-20 Miguel Sofer <[email protected]>

and TCL_PARSE_PART1 (deprecated) [Bug 835020]
2003-11-19 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* tests/compile.test (compile-16.22.0): Improved test for the recent
fix for Bug 845412.
2003-11-19 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
* generic/tclCompile.c (TclCompileScript): Added a guard for the
expansion code so that long non-expanding commands don't get expansion
infrastructure inserted in them, especially when that infrastructure
isn't initialised. [Bug 845412]
2003-11-18 David Gravereaux <[email protected]>
* contrib/djgpp/Makefile: Changes from Victor Wagner
* contrib/djgpp/langinfo.c (new): <[email protected]> for better
* contrib/djgpp/langinfo.h (new): DJGPP support.
* unix/tclUnixInit.c: .
* unix/tclUnixChan.c: .
* unix/tclUnixFCmd.c: .
2003-11-17 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* tests/reg.test: Added tests for [Bugs 230589, 504785, 505048, 840258]
recently fixed by 2003-11-15 commit to regcomp.c by Pavel Goran. His
notes on the fix: This bug results from an error in code that splits
states into "progress" and "no-progress" ones. This error causes an
interesting situation with the pre-collected single-linked list of
states to be splitted: many items were added to the list, but only
several of them are accessible from the list beginning, since the
"tmp" member of struct state (which is used here to hold a pointer to
the next list item) gets overwritten, which results in a "looped"
chain. As a result, not all of states are splitted, and one state is
splitted two times, causing incorrect "no-progress" flag values.
2003-11-16 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode): Make sure that
Tcl_AsyncInvoke is called regularly when processing bytecodes.
* generic/tclTest.c (AsyncThreadProc, TestasyncCmd): Extended testing
harness to send an asynchronous marking without relying on UNIX
signals.
* tests/async.test (async-4.*): Tests to check that async events are
handled by the bytecode core. [Bug 746722]
2003-11-15 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
* generic/tclTest.c (TestHashSystemHashCmd): Removed 'const' modifier
from hash type structure; it should be const and the hash code assumes
it behaves like const, but that's not how the API is defined. Like
this, we are following in the same footsteps as Tcl_RegisterObjType()
which has the same conditions on its argument. Stops VC++5.2 warning.
[Bug 842511]
2003-11-14 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
* generic/tclHash.c (Tcl_DeleteHashTable,Tcl_HashStats,RebuildTable):
* generic/tclTest.c (TestHashSystemHashCmd): TIP#138 implementation,
* tests/misc.test: plus a new chunk of stuff to test the hash
functions more thoroughly in the test suite.
[Patch 731356, modified]
* doc/Tcl.n: Updated Tcl version number and changebars.
2003-11-14 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* doc/ParseCmd.3: Implementation of TIP 157. Adds recognition
* doc/Tcl.n: of the new leading {expand} syntax on words.
* generic/tcl.h: Parses such words as the new Tcl_Token type
* generic/tclBasic.c: TCL_TOKEN_EXPAND_WORD. Updated Tcl_EvalEx and
* generic/tclCompile.c: the bytecode compiler/execution engine to
* generic/tclCompile.h: recognize the new token type. New opcodes
* generic/tclExecute.c: INST_LIST_VERIFY and INST_INVOKE_EXP and a new
* generic/tclParse.c: operand type OPERAND_ULIST1 are defined. Docs
* generic/tclTest.c: and tests are included.
* tests/basic.test:
* tests/compile.test:
* tests/parse.test:
* library/auto.tcl: Replaced several [eval]s used to perform
* library/package.tcl: argument expansion with the new syntax. In the
* library/safe.tcl: test files lindex.test and lset.test, replaced
* tests/cmdInfo.test: use of [eval] to force direct string
* tests/encoding.test: evaluation with use of [testevalex] which more
* tests/execute.test: directly and robustly serves the same purpose.

2003-11-12 Jeff Hobbs <[email protected]>
* tests/cmdMZ.test (cmdMZ-1.4): change to nonPortable as more systems
are using permissions caching, and this isn't really a Tcl controlled
issue.
2003-11-11 Jeff Hobbs <[email protected]>
* unix/configure:
* unix/tcl.m4: improve AIX --enable-64bit handling
remove -D__NO_STRING_INLINES -D__NO_MATH_INLINES from CFLAGS_OPTIMIZE
on Linux. Make default opt -O2 (was -O).
2003-11-11 David Gravereaux <[email protected]>

* win/tclWinInit.c (TclpInitLibraryPath): Fix for [Bug 832657]
that should not run afoul of startup constraints.
* library/dde/pkgIndex.tcl: Added safeguards so that registry and
* library/reg/pkgIndex.tcl: dde packages are not offered on
* win/tclWinDde.c: non-Windows platforms. Bumped to
* win/tclWinReg.c: registry 1.1.3 and dde 1.3.

* tests/fCmd.test: fix to misleading error message in 'file link'.
[Bug 836208]
2003-11-07 Vince Darley <[email protected]>
* generic/tclIOUtil.c: fix to compiler warning/error with some
compilers. [Bug 835918]
2003-11-07 Daniel Steffen <[email protected]>
* macosx/Makefile: optimized builds define NDEBUG to turn off
ThreadAlloc range checking.
2003-11-05 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* tests/unixInit.test (unixInit-2.10): New test to expose [Bug 832657]
failure of TclpInitLibraryPath() to properly handle .. in the path
of the executable.
2003-11-04 Daniel Steffen <[email protected]>
* macosx/Makefile: added 'test' target.
2003-11-03 Vince Darley <[email protected]>
* generic/tclIOUtil.c
* generic/tclInt.h: added comments and re-arranged code to clarify
distinction between Tcl_LoadHandle, ClientData for 'load'ed code, and
point out limitations of the design introduced with Tcl 8.4.
* unix/tclUnixFile.c: fix to memory leak
* generic/tclCmdIL.c: removed warning on Windows.
2003-11-01 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
* generic/tclCmdIL.c (Tcl_LrepeatObjCmd): Check for sensible list
lengths and allow for soft failure of the memory subsystem in the
[lconcat] command [Bug 829027]. Uses direct list creation to avoid
extra copies when working near the limit of available memory. Also
reorganized to encourage optimizing compilers to optimize heavily.
* generic/tclListObj.c (TclNewListObjDirect): New list constructor
that does not copy the array of objects. Useful for creating
potentially very large lists or where you are about to throw away the
array argument which is being used in its entirety.
2003-10-28 Miguel Sofer <[email protected]>
* generic/tclExecute.c (NEXT_INST macros): replaced macro variable
"result" by "resultHandling" to avoid confusion.
2003-10-23 Andreas Kupries <[email protected]>
* unix/tclUnixChan.c (Tcl_MakeFileChannel): Applied [Patch 813606]
fixing [Bug 813087]. 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.
* win/tclWinSock.c (TcpWatchProc): Watch for FD_CLOSE too when asked
for writable events by the generic layer.
(SocketEventProc): Generate a writable event too when a close is
detected.
Together the changes fix [Bug 599468].
2003-10-23 Vince Darley <[email protected]>
* tests/resource.test:
* mac/tclMacResource.c: fix to resource freeing problem in 'resource'
command reported by Bernard Desgraupes.

to stop symbol/#def clashes on Cygwin/Mingw32 on NT. [Bug 822528]
2003-10-21 Daniel Steffen <[email protected]>
* tools/tcltk-man2html.tcl: fixed incorrect html generated for
.IP/.TP lists, now use <DL><DT>...<DD>...<P><DT>...<DD>...</DL>
instead of illegal <DL><P><DT>...<DD>...<P><DT>...<DD>...</DL>.
Added skipping of directives directly after .TP to avoid them being
used as item descriptions, e.g. .TP\n.VS in clock.n.
2003-10-21 Andreas Kupries <[email protected]>
* win/tclWinPipe.c (BuildCommandLine): Applied the patch coming with
[Bug 805605] to the code, fixing the incorrect use of ispace noted by
Ronald Dauster <[email protected]>.
2003-10-20 Kevin B. Kenny <[email protected]>
* doc/msgcat.n:
* library/msgcat/msgcat.tcl (mclocale,mcload):
* tools/tcl.wse.in:
* unix/Makefile.in: Implementation of TIP#156, add a "root locale"
* win/makefile.bc: to the 'msgcat' package. Advanced msgcat
* win/Makefile.in: version number to 1.4
* win/Makefile.vc:
2003-10-15 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
* generic/tclCmdIL.c (SortInfo,etc): Reorganized so that SortInfo
carries an array of integer indices instead of a Tcl list. This nips
shimmering problems in the bud and simplifies SelectObjFromSublist at
the cost of making setup slightly more complex. [Bug 823768]
2003-10-14 David Gravereaux <[email protected]>
* win/tclAppInit.c (sigHandler): Punt gracefully if exitToken has
already been destroyed.
2003-10-14 Vince Darley <[email protected]>
* generic/tclCmdMZ.c:
* tests/regexp.test: fix to [Bug 823524] in regsub; added three new
tests.
2003-10-14 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* generic/tclBasic.c (TclAppendObjToErrorInfo): New internal routine
that appends a Tcl_Obj to the errorInfo, saving the caller the trouble
of extracting the string rep.
* generic/tclStringObj.c (TclAppendLimitedToObj): New internal
routine that supports truncated appends with optional ellipsis marking.
This single routine supports UTF-8-safe truncated appends needed in
several places throughout the Tcl source code, mostly for error and
stack messages. Clean fix for [Bug 760872].
* generic/tclInt.h: Declarations for new internal routines.
* generic/tclCmdMZ.c: Updated callers to use the new routines.
* generic/tclCompExpr.c:
* generic/tclCompile.c:
* generic/tclExecute.c:
* generic/tclIOUtil.c:
* generic/tclNamesp.c:
* generic/tclObj.c:
* generic/tclParseExpr.c:
* generic/tclProc.c:
* generic/tclStringObj.c:
* mac/tclMacResource.c:
* library/init.tcl: Updated ::errorInfo cleanup in [unknown] to
reflect slight modifications to Tcl_LogCommandInfo(). Corrects failing
init-4.* tests.
2003-10-14 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
TIP#127 IMPLEMENTATION FROM JOE MICHAEL SCHLENKER

* win/tclWinFCmd.c:
* win/tclWinFile.c:
* win/tclFileInt.h:
Fixed [Bug 800106] in which 'glob' was incapable of merging the
results of a directory listing (real or virtual) and any virtual
filesystem mountpoints in that directory (the latter were ignored).
This meant boundaries between different filesystems were not seamless
(e.g. 'glob */*' across a filesystem boundary was wrong). Added new
entry to Tcl_GlobTypeData in a totally backwards compatible way. To
allow listing of mounts, registered filesystems must support the
'TCL_GLOB_TYPE_MOUNT' flag. If this is not supported (e.g. in tclvfs
1.2) then mounts will simply not be listed for that filesystem.
Fixed [Bug 749876] 'file writable/readable/etc' (NativeAccess) using
correct permission checking code for Windows NT/2000/XP where more
complex user-based security/access priveleges are available,
particularly on shared volumes. The performance impact of this extra
checking will need further investigation. Note: Win 95,98,ME have no
support for this.
Also made better use of normalized rather than translated paths in the
platform specific code.
2003-10-12 Jeff Hobbs <[email protected]>
* unix/tclUnixTest.c (TestalarmCmd): don't bother checking return
value of alarm. [Bug #664755] (english)
2003-10-09 Pat Thoyts <[email protected]>
* win/makefile.vc: Applied patches for bug #801467 by Joe Mistachkin
* win/tclAppInit.c: to fix incompatible TCL_MEM_DEBUG handling in
* generic/tclObj.c: Win32 VC builds.
2003-10-08 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* generic/tclBasic.c: Save and restore the iPtr->flag bits that
control the state of errorCode and errorInfo management when calling
"leave" execution traces, so that all error information of the traced
command is still available whether traced or not. [Bug 760947]
Thanks to Yahalom Emet.
2003-10-08 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
* generic/tclTest.c (TestNumUtfCharsCmd): Command to allow finer
access to Tcl_NumUtfChars for testing.
* generic/tclUtf.c (Tcl_NumUtfChars): Corrected string length
determining when the length parameter is negative; the terminator is a
zero byte, not (necessarily) a \u0000 character. [Bug 769812]
2003-10-07 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* tests/cmdAH.test:
* tests/exec.test: Corrected temporary file management
* tests/fileSystem.test: issues uncovered by -debug 1 test
* tests/io.test: operations. Also backported some
* tests/ioCmd.test: other fixes from the HEAD.

* tests/pid.test: [Bugs 675605, 675655, 675659]
* tests/socket.test:

current directory, so that tests can depend on ability to write files.
[Bug 575837]
* doc/OpenFileChnl.3: Updated Tcl_Tell and Tcl_Seek documentation to
reflect that they now return Tcl_WideInt (TIP 72). [Bug 787537]
* tests/io.test: Corrected several tests that failed when paths
* tests/ioCmd.test: included regexp-special chars. [Bug 775394]
2003-10-06 Jeff Hobbs <[email protected]>
* win/configure:
* win/tcl.m4: removed incorrect checks for existence of optimization.
TCL_CFG_OPTIMIZED is now defined whenever the user does not build with
--enable-symbols.
2003-10-06 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* tests/regexp.test: Matched [makeFile] with [removeFile].
* tests/regexpComp.test: [Bug 675652]
* tests/fCmd.test (fCmd-8.2): Test only that tilde-substitution
happens, not for any particular result. [Bug 685991]
* unix/tcl.m4 (SC_PATH_TCLCONFIG): Corrected search path so that
alpha and beta releases of Tcl are not favored. [Bug 608698]
* tests/reg.test: Corrected duplicate test names.
* tests/resource.test: [Bugs 710370, 710358]
* tests/dict.test:
* tests/dict.test: Updated [package require tcltest] lines to
* tests/fileSystem.test: indiciate that these test files
* tests/lrepeat.test: use features of tcltest 2. [Bug 706114]
* tests/notify.test:
* tests/parseExpr.test:
* tests/unixNotfy.test:
* tests/winDde.test:
2003-10-04 Miguel Sofer <[email protected]>
* generic/tclExecute.c (TEBC):
* tests/execute.test (execute-8.2): fix for [Bug 816641] - faulty
execution and catch stack management.
2003-10-03 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* 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. [Bug 811483]
2003-10-02 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* generic/tclTrace.c: Corrected comingling of introspection results of
[trace info command] and [trace info execution]. [Bug 807243]
Thanks to Mark Saye.
2003-10-01 Daniel Steffen <[email protected]>
* macosx/Makefile: fixed redo prebinding bug when DESTDIR="".
* mac/tclMacResource.c: fixed possible NULL dereference (bdesgraupes).
2003-09-29 Vince Darley <[email protected]>
* generic/tclPathObj.c:
* tests/fileName.test: fix to inconsistent handling of backslash
path separators on Windows in 'file join' [Bug 813273]
2003-09-29 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
* generic/tclPathObj.c (TclNativePathInFilesystem,TclFSGetPathType):
* generic/tclIOUtil.c (TclNativeDupInternalRep,TclGetPathType): Rename
to make sure function names won't interfere with other non-Tcl code
(reported by George Staplin)
TIP#121 IMPLEMENTATION FROM JOE MISTACHKIN
* generic/tclEvent.c (Tcl_SetExitProc,Tcl_Exit): Implementation of
application exit handler scheme.
* generic/tcl.decls (Tcl_SetExitProc): Public declaration.
* doc/Exit.3: Documentation of new API function.
TIP#112 IMPLEMENTATION
* generic/tclNamesp.c: Core of implementation.
* generic/tclInt.h (Namespace,TclInvalidateNsCmdLookup): Add command
list epoch counter and list of ensembles to namespace structure, and
define a macro to ease update of the epoch counter.
* generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_CreateObjCommand,etc.): Update epoch counter
when list of commands in a namespace changes.
* generic/tclObj.c (TclInitObjSubsystem): Register ensemble subcommand
type.
* tests/namespace.test (42.1-47.6): Tests.
* doc/namespace.n: Documentation.
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* macosx/Makefile: ensure SYMROOT exists if OBJROOT is overridden on
command line. Replaced explict use of /usr/bin by ${BINDIR}.
2003-09-24 Vince Darley <[email protected]>
* library/package.tcl (tcl::MacPkgUnknown, tcl::MacOSXPkgUnknown):
Minor performance tweaks to reduce the number of [file] invocations.
Meant to improve startup times, at least a little bit. (The generic
equivalent patch was applied on 2003-02-21).
2003-09-24 Vince Darley <[email protected]>
* trace.test: removed 'knownBug' from a test which doesn't illustrate
a bug, just a bad test.
2003-09-23 Miguel Sofer <[email protected]>
* generic/tclExecute.c:
* generic/tclInt.h: changed the evaluation-stack addressing mode, from
array-style to pointer-style; the catch stack and evaluation stack are
now contiguous in memory. [Patch 457449]
2003-09-23 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* tests/trace.test (trace-31,32-*): Added tests for [Bug 807243] and
[Bug 811483].
* 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.
2003-09-20 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
* tests/expr.test (expr-23.4): Prevented accidental wrapping round of
exponential operation; it isn't portable, and not what I intended to
test either. [Bug 808244]
2003-09-19 Miguel Sofer <[email protected]>
* 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]
2003-09-17 Vince Darley <[email protected]>
* tclPathObj.c: fix to test-suite problem introduced by the bug fix
below. No problem in ordinary code, just test suite code which
manually adjusts tclPlatform. [Bug 808247]
2003-09-16 Vince Darley <[email protected]>
* doc/filename.n: documentation of Windows-specific feature as
discussed in [Bug 541989]
* generic/tclPathObj.c: fix for normalization of volume-relative paths
[Bug 767834]
* tests/winFCmd.test: new tests for both of the above.
* tests/cmdAH.test: fix for AFS problem in test suite [Bug 748960]
2003-09-13 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
TIP#123 IMPLEMENTATION BASED ON WORK BY ARJEN MARKUS
* generic/tclCompile.h (INST_EXPON): Implementation of
* generic/tclCompile.c (tclInstructionTable): exponential operator.
* generic/tclCompExpr.c (operatorTable):
* generic/tclParseExpr.c (ParseExponentialExpr, GetLexeme):
* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode, ExponWide, ExponLong):
(IllegalExprOperandType):
* tests/expr.test:
* tests/compExpr-old.test:
* doc/expr.n:
2003-09-10 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* library/opt/optparse.tcl: Latest revisions caused [OptGuessType]
to guess "int" instead of "string" for empty strings. Missed the
required "-strict" option to [string is]. Thanks to Revar Desmera.
[Bug 803968]
2003-09-08 David Gravereaux <[email protected]>
* win/tclWinLoad.c (TclpDlopen): Changed the error message for
ERROR_PROC_NOT_FOUND to be a bit more helpful in giving us clues.
"can't find specified procedure" means a function in the import table,
for implicit loading, couldn't be resolved and that's why the load
failed.
2003-09-04 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* doc/Tcl_Main.3:
* doc/FileSystem.3: Implementation of
* doc/source.n: TIPs 137/151. Adds a
* doc/tclsh.1: -encoding option to
* generic/tcl.decls: the [source] command
* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_SourceObjCmd): and a new C routine,
* generic/tclIOUtil.c (Tcl_FSEvalFileEx): Tcl_FSEvalFileEx(),
* generic/tclMain.c (Tcl_Main): that provides C access
* mac/tclMacResource.c (Tcl_MacSourceObjCmd): to the same function.
* tests/cmdMZ.test: Also adds command line
* tests/main.test: option handling in Tcl_Main() so that tclsh
* tests/source.test: and other apps built on Tcl_Main() respect a
-encoding command line option before a script filename. Docs and tests
updated as well. [Patch 742683]
This is a ***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY*** only for those C programs
that embed Tcl, build on Tcl_Main(), and make use of Tcl_Main's former
ability to pass a leading "-encoding" option to interactive shell
operations.
* generic/tclInt.decls: Added internal stub
* generic/tclMain.c (Tcl*StartupScript*): table entries for two
new functions Tcl_SetStartupScript() and Tcl_GetStartupScript() that
set/get the path and encoding for the startup script to be evaluated
by either Tcl_Main() or Tk_Main(). Given public names in anticipation
of their exposure by a followup TIP.
* generic/tclDecls.h: make genstubs
* generic/tclIntDecls.h:
* generic/tclStubInit.c:
2003-09-04 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* doc/SplitList.3: Implementation of TIP 148. Fixes [Bug 489537].
* generic/tcl.h: Updated Tcl_ConvertCountedElement() to quote
* generic/tclUtil.c: the leading "#" character of all list elements
unless the TCL_DONT_QUOTE_HASH flag is passed in.
* generic/tclDictObj.c: Updated Tcl_ConvertCountedElement() callers
* generic/tclListObj.c: to pass in the TCL_DONT_QUOTE_HASH flags
* generic/tclResult.c: when appropriate.
2003-08-31 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* doc/return.n: Updated [return] docs to cover new TIP 90 features.
* doc/break.n: Added SEE ALSO references to return.n
* doc/continue.n:
2003-09-01 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
* doc/Namespace.3: Basic documentation for the TIP#139 functions. This
will need improving, but the basic bits are there at least.
2003-08-31 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* doc/catch.n: Updated [catch] docs to cover new TIP 90 features.
2003-08-29 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* generic/tclCmdAH.c: Corrected bug in TIP 90 implementation where
* tests/cmdMZ.test: the default -errorcode NONE value was not
copied into the return options dictionary. This correction modified
one test result.
2003-08-27 David Gravereaux <[email protected]>
* compat/strftime.c (_fmt): Removed syst array intializer that
couldn't take variables within it under the watcom compiler:
'Initializers must be constant'. I believe Borland has this strictness
as well. VC++ must be non-standard about this.
Changed Win32 platform #ifdef from 'WIN32' to '__WIN32__' as this is
the correct one to use across the Tcl sources. Even though we do force
it in tcl.h, the true parent one is __WIN32__.
Added missing CONST'ification usage to match prototype listed in
tclInt.decls.
* win/tclWinPort.h: Added a block for OpenWatcom adjustments that
fixes 1) the same issue Mo did for MinGW lack of missing LPFN_*
typedefs in their WINE derived <winsock2.h> and 2) The need to be
strict about how the char type needs to be signed by default.
* win/tclWinSock.c: Added OpenWatcom to the commentary about the
#ifdef HAVE_NO_LPFN_DECLS block.
* win/tclWinTime.c: Changed use of '_timezone' to 'timezone' as this
difference is already adjusted for in tclWinPort.h. Removed
unreferenced posixEpoch file-scope global.
* win/tclWinFile.c (WinReadLinkDirectory): Fix for 'Initializers must
be constant' with the driveSpec array using OpenWatcom.
2003-08-27 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* generic/tclUtil.c: Corrected [Bug 411825] and other bugs in
TclNeedSpace() where non-breaking space (\u00A0) and backslash-escaped
spaces were handled incorrectly.
* tests/util.test: Added new tests util-8.[2-6].
2003-08-26 David Gravereaux <[email protected]>
* generic/tcl.h: Added some support for the LCC-Win32 compiler.
Unfortunetly, this compiler has a bug in its preprocessor and can't
build Tcl even with this minor patch. Also added some support for the
OpenWatcom compiler. A new win/makefile.wc to follow soon.
2003-08-25 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
* tools/genStubs.tcl (genStubs::makeDecl): A more subtle way of
generating stubbed declarations allows us to have declarations of a
function in multiple interfaces simultaneously.
* generic/tcl.decls: Duplicated some namespace declarations from
tclInt.decls here, as mandated by TIP #139. This is OK since the
declarations match and will end up using the declarations in the
public code from now on because of #include ordering. Keeping the old
declarations in tclInt.decls; there's no need to gratuitously break
compatability for those extensions which are already clients of the
namespace code.
2003-08-23 Zoran Vasiljevic <[email protected]>
* generic/tclIOUtil.c: merged fixes for thread-unsafe handling of
filesystem records [Bug 753315]. This also fixed the [Bug 788780]
* generic/tclPathObj.c: merged fixes for thread-unsafe handling of
filesystem records. [Bug 753315]
* generic/tclFileSystem.h: merged fixes for thread-unsafe handling of
filesystem records. [Bug 753315]
2003-08-19 Pat Thoyts <[email protected]>
* win/tclWinSerial.c (SerialErrorStr): Fixed a syntax error created in
the previous code cleanup.
2003-08-19 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
* win/tclWinSerial.c: Adjusted commenting and spacing usage to follow
the principles of the Style Guide better.
2003-08-18 Mo DeJong <[email protected]>
* win/configure: Regen.
* win/tcl.m4 (SC_ENABLE_SYMBOLS): Use test instead of -eq, which does
not work. [Bug 781109]
2003-08-13 Chengye Mao <[email protected]>
* win/tclWinPipe.c: fixed a bug in BuildCommandLine. 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]
2003-08-11 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
TIP #136 IMPLEMENTATION from Simon Geard <[email protected]>
* generic/tclCmdIL.c (Tcl_LrepeatObjCmd): Adapted version of Simon's
* doc/lrepeat.n: patch, updated to the HEAD
* tests/lrepeat.test: and matching the core style.
* generic/tclBasic.c (buildIntCmds): Splice into core.
* generic/tclInt.h:
* doc/list.n: Cross-reference.
2003-08-06 Jeff Hobbs <[email protected]>
* win/tclWinInit.c: recognize amd64 and ia32_on_win64 cpus.
2003-08-06 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* library/msgcat/msgcat.tcl: Added escape so that non-Windows
* library/msgcat/pkgIndex.tcl: platforms do not try to use the
registry package. 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 <[email protected]>
* 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]
2003-07-28 Vince Darley <[email protected]>
* doc/FileSystem.3:
* doc/Translate.3: better documentation of Tcl_TranslateFileName and
related functions. [Bug 775220]
2003-07-24 Mo DeJong <[email protected]>
* generic/tcl.h: Revert change made on 2003-07-21 since it made the
sizeof(Tcl_Obj) different for regular vs mem debug builds.
* generic/tclInt.h: Define TclDecrRefCount in terms of
Tcl_DbDecrRefCount which removes one layer of inderection.
* generic/tclObj.c (TclDbInitNewObj, Tcl_DbIncrRefCount,
(Tcl_DbDecrRefCount, Tcl_DbIsShared): Define ThreadSpecificData that
contains a hashtable. The table is used to ensure that a Tcl_Obj is
only acted upon in the thread that allocated it. This checking code is
enabled only when mem debug and threads are enabled.
2003-07-24 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* tests/async.test: Added several tests that demonstrate [Bug
* tests/basic.test: 489537], Tcl's longstanding failure to
* tests/dict.test: properly quote any leading '#' character when
* tests/dstring.test: generating the string rep of a list so that
* tests/list.test: the comment-power of that character is hidden
* tests/parse.test: from any [eval], in order to satisfy the
* tests/util.test: documentation that [list] does [eval]-safe
quoting.
2003-07-24 Reinhard Max <[email protected]>
* library/package.tcl: Fixed a typo that broke pkg_mkIndex -verbose.
* tests/pkgMkIndex.test: Added a test for [pkg_mkIndex -verbose].
* ChangeLog.2002 (new file):
* ChangeLog: broke changes from 2002 into ChangeLog.2002 to reduce
size of the main ChangeLog.
2003-07-23 Daniel Steffen <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* win/tclWinReg.c (OpenSubKey): Fixed 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 Mo DeJong <[email protected]>
Check that the thread incrementing or decrementing the ref count of a
Tcl_Obj is the thread that originally allocated the thread. This fail
fast behavior will catch programming errors that allow a single
Tcl_Obj to be accessed from multiple threads.
* generic/tcl.h (Tcl_Obj): Add allocThread member to Tcl_Obj. This
member records the thread id the Tcl_Obj was allocated. It is used to
check that any future ref count incr or decr is done from the same
thread that allocated the Tcl_Obj. This member is defined only when
threads and mem debug are enabled.
* generic/tclInt.h (TclNewObj, TclDbNewObj, TclDecrRefCount):
Define TclNewObj and TclDbNewObj using TclDbInitNewObj when mem debug
is enabled. This fixes a problem where TclNewObj calls did not work
the same as TclDbNewObj when mem debug was enabled.
* generic/tclObj.c (TclDbInitNewObj, Tcl_DbIncrRefCount,
(Tcl_DbDecrRefCount): Add new helper to init Tcl_Obj members when mem
debug is enabled. Init the allocThread member in TclDbInitNewObj and
check it in Tcl_DbIncrRefCount and Tcl_DbDecrRefCount to make sure a
Tcl_Obj allocated in one thread is not being acted upon in another
thread.
2003-07-21 Vince Darley <[email protected]>
* test/cmdAH.test: ensure certain tests run in local filesystem. [Bug
748960]
2003-07-18 Daniel Steffen <[email protected]>
* macosx/Makefile: added option to allow installing manpages in
addition to default html help.
2003-07-18 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
* doc/Utf.3: Tightened up documentation of Tcl_UtfNext and Tcl_UtfPrev
to better match the behaviour. [Bug 769895]
2003-07-18 Jeff Hobbs <[email protected]>
* library/http/pkgIndex.tcl: upped to http v2.4.4
* library/http/http.tcl: add support for user:pass info in URL.
* tests/http.test: [Bug 759888] (shiobara)
2003-07-18 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* 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
* doc/CrtTrace.3: using "null" everywhere to refer to the
* doc/Encoding.3: character '\0', and using "NULL" everywhere
* doc/Eval.3: to refer to the value of a pointer that points
* doc/GetIndex.3: to nowhere. Also dropped references to ASCII
* doc/Hash.3: that are no longer true, and standardized on
* doc/LinkVar.3: the 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 <[email protected]>
* unix/tclUnixFCmd.c: fix for compilation errors on platforms where
configure detects non-functional chflags(). [Bug 748946]
* 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. Added var to allow overriding of
tclsh used during html help building (Landon Fuller).
* 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.
2003-07-16 Mumit Khan <[email protected]>
* generic/tclPathObj.c (SetFsPathFromAny): Add Cygwin specific code to
convert POSIX filename to native format.
* generic/tclFileName.c (Tcl_TranslateFileName): And remove from here.
(TclDoGlob): Adjust for cygwin and append / for dirs instead of \
* win/tclWinFile.c (TclpObjChdir): Use chdir on Cygwin.
[Patch 679315]
2003-07-16 Jeff Hobbs <[email protected]>
* library/safe.tcl (FileInAccessPath): normalize paths before
comparison. [Bug 759607] (myers)
* unix/tclUnixNotfy.c (NotifierThreadProc): correct size of found and
word vars from int to long. [Bug 767578] (hgo)
* generic/tcl.h: Add recognition of -DTCL_UTF_MAX=6 on the make
* generic/regcustom.h: 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 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
* 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 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* generic/tclFileName.c (Tcl_GlobObjCmd): [Bug 771840]
* generic/tclPathObj.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]. Bumped to
version 2.2.4. [Bug 772333]
2003-07-15 Mo DeJong <[email protected]>
* unix/dltest/pkga.c (Pkga_EqObjCmd): Fix typo that was causing a
crash in load.test.
2003-07-15 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
* doc/array.n: Make sure docs are synched with the 8.4 release.
2003-07-15 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* doc/http.n: Updated SYNOPSIS to match actual syntax of commands.
[Bug 756112]
* unix/dltest/pkga.c: Updated to not use Tcl_UtfNcmp and counted
strings instead of strcmp (not defined in any #include'd header) and
presumed NULL-terminated strings.
* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileIfCmd): Prior fix of Bug 711371 on
2003-04-07 introduced a buffer overflow. Corrected. [Bug 771613]
2003-07-15 Kevin B. Kenny <[email protected]>
* win/rules.vc: Added a missing $(OPTDEFINES) which broke the build if
STATS=memdbg was specified.
2003-07-15 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
* generic/tclCmdIL.c (SortCompare): Cleared up confusing error
message. [Bug 771539]
2003-07-11 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* library/package.tcl: Corrected [pkg_mkIndex] bug reported on
comp.lang.tcl. The indexer was searching for newly indexed packages
instead of newly provided packages.
2003-07-08 Vince Darley <[email protected]>
* tests/winFCmd.test: fix for five tests under win98 [Bug 767679]
2003-07-07 Jeff Hobbs <[email protected]>
* doc/array.n: add examples from Welton
2003-06-23 Vince Darley <[email protected]>
* doc/file.n: clarification of 'file tail' behaviour [Bug 737977]
2003-07-04 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
* doc/expr.n: Tighten up the wording of some operations. [Bug 758488]
* tests/cmdAH.test: Made tests of [file mtime] work better on FAT
filesystems. [Patch 760768] Also a little general cleanup.
* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_StringObjCmd): Made [string map] accept
dictionaries for maps. This is much trickier than it looks, since map
entry ordering is significant. [Bug 759936]
* generic/tclVar.c (Tcl_ArrayObjCmd, TclArraySet): Made [array get]
and [array set] work with dictionaries, producing them and consuming
them. Note that for compatability reasons, you will never get a dict
from feeding a string literal to [array set] since that alters the
trace behaviour of "multi-key" sets. [Bug 759935]
2003-06-23 Vince Darley <[email protected]>
* generic/tclTrace.c: fix to Window debug build compilation error.
2003-06-27 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* tests/init.test: Added [cleanupTests] to report results of tests
* tests/pkg.test: that run in slave interps. [Bugs 761334,761344]
* tests/http.test: Used more reliable path to find httpd script.
2003-06-25 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* tests/init.test: Added tests init-4.6.* to illustrate [Bug 760872]
2003-06-25 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
* generic/tclTrace.c: New file, factoring out of virtually all the
various trace-related things from tclBasic.c and tclCmdMZ.c with the
goal of making this a separate maintenance area.
2003-06-25 Mo DeJong <[email protected]>
* unix/configure: Regen.
* unix/tcl.m4 (SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS): Add -ieee when compiling with cc and
add -mieee when compiling with gcc under OSF1-V5 "Tru64" systems. [Bug
748957]
2003-06-24 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
* doc/encoding.n: Corrected the docs to say that [source] uses the
system encoding, which it always did anyway (since 8.1) [Bug 742100]
2003-06-24 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
* generic/tclHash.c (Tcl_HashStats): Prevented occurrence of
division-by-zero problems. [Bug 759749]
2003-06-24 Mo DeJong <[email protected]>
* unix/tclUnixPort.h: #undef inet_ntoa before #define to avoid
compiler warning under freebsd. [Bug 745844]
2003-06-23 Pat Thoyts <[email protected]>
* doc/dde.n: Committed TIP #135 which changes the
* win/tclWinDde.c: -exact option to -force. Also cleaned a
* tests/winDde.test: bug in the tests.
* library/dde/pkgIndex.tcl: Incremented version to 1.2.5
* doc/dde.n: Committed TIP #120 which provides the
* win/tclWinDde.c: dde package for safe interpreters.
* tests/winDde.test: Incremented package version to 1.2.4
* library/dde/pkgIndex.tcl:
2003-06-23 Vince Darley <[email protected]>
* generic/tclFCmd.c: fix to bad error message when trying to do 'file
copy foo ""'. [Bug 756951]
* tests/fCmd.test: added two new tests for the bug.
* win/tclWinFile.c:
* win/tclWin32Dll.c: recommitted some filesystem globbing speed-ups,
but disabled some on the older Win 95/98/ME where they don't seem to
work.
* doc/FileSystem.3: documentation fix [Bug 720634]
2003-06-18 Miguel Sofer <[email protected]>
* generic/tclNamesp.c (Tcl_Export): removed erroneous comments. [Bug
756744]
2003-06-17 Vince Darley <[email protected]>
* win/makefile.vc: fixes to check-in below so compilation now works
again on Windows.
* generic/tclCmdMZ.c:
* tests/regexp.test: fixing of bugs related to regexp and regsub
matching of empty strings. Addition of a number of new tests. [Bug
755335]
2003-06-16 Andreas Kupries <[email protected]>
* win/Makefile.in: Haven't heard back from David for a week. Now
* win/configure: committing the remaining changes.
* win/configure.in: Note: In active contact with Helmut Giese about
* win/makefile.vc: the borland relatedchanges. This part will see
* win/rules.vc: future updates.
* win/tcl.m4:
* win/makefile.bc:
2003-06-10 Andreas Kupries <[email protected]>
* generic/tclConfig.c (ASSOC_KEY): Changed the key to
"tclPackageAboutDict" (tcl prefix) to make collisions with the keys of
other packages more unlikely.
2003-06-10 Miguel Sofer <[email protected]>
* generic/tclBasic.c:
* generic/tclExecute.c: let TclExecuteObjvInternal 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 Andreas Kupries <[email protected]>
* generic/tcl.decls: Ported the changes from the
* generic/tcl.h: 'tip-59-implementation' branch into the CVS
* generic/tclBasic.c: head. Regenerated stub table. Regenerated the
* generic/tclInt.h: configure's scripts, with help from Joe English.
* generic/tclDecls.h:
* generic/tclStubInit.c:
* generic/tclConfig.c:
* generic/tclPkgConfig.c:
* unix/Makefile.in:
* unix/configure.in: The changes in the windows section are not yet
* unix/tcl.m4: committed, they await feedback from David
* unix/mkLinks: Gravereaux.
* doc/RegConfig.3:
* mac/tclMacPkgConfig.c:
* tests/config.test:
2003-06-09 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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]
2003-06-02 Vince Darley <[email protected]>
* win/tclWinFCmd.c:
* tests/fCmd.test: fix to [Bug #747575] in which a bad error message
is given when trying to rename a busy directory to one with the same
prefix, but not the same name. Added three new tests.
2003-05-23 D. Richard Hipp <[email protected]>
* win/tclWinTime.c: Add tests to detect and avoid a division by zero
in the windows precision timer calibration logic.
2003-05-23 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* 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 726018]
Thanks to George Petasis for the bug report and Jacob Levy for testing
assistance.
2003-05-23 Mo DeJong <[email protected]>
* unix/mkLinks: Set the var S to "" at the top of the file to avoid
error when user has set S to something. [Tk Bug 739833]
2003-05-22 Daniel Steffen <[email protected]>
* macosx/Tcl.pbproj/project.pbxproj: added missing references to new
source files tclPathObj.c and tclMacOSXFCmd.c.
* macosx/tclMacOSXBundle.c: fixed a problem that caused only the first
call to Tcl_MacOSXOpenVersionedBundleResources() for a given bundle
identifier to succeed. This caused the tcl runtime library not to be
found in all interps created after the inital one.
2003-05-19 Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@hippolyta>
* unix/tclUnixTime.c: Corrected a bug in conversion of non-ASCII
chars in the format string.
2003-05-19 Daniel Steffen <[email protected]>
* macosx/Tcl.pbproj/project.pbxproj: changed tclConfig.sh location in
versioned framework subdirectories to be identical to location in
framework toplevel; fixed stub library symbolic links to be tcl
version specific.
* unix/tclUnixTime.c: fixed typo.
2003-05-18 Kevin Kenny <[email protected]>
* compat/strftime.c: Modified TclpStrftime to return its result in
* generic/tclClock.c: UTF-8 encoding, and removed the conversion from
* mac/tclMacTime.c: system encoding to UTF-8 from [clock format].
* unix/tclUnixTime.c: Needed to avoid double conversion of the
* win/tclWinTime.c: timezone name on Windows systems. [Bug 624408]
2003-05-16 Pat Thoyts <[email protected]>
* library/dde/pkgIndex.tcl: Applied TIP #130 which provides for
* tests/winDde.test: unique dde server names. Added some more
* win/tclWinDde.c: tests. Fixes [Bug 219293]
* doc/dde.n: Updated documentation re TIP #130.
* tests/winDde.test: Applied patch for [Bug 738929] by KKB and changed
to new-style tests.
2003-05-16 Kevin B. Kenny <[email protected]>
* unix/Makefile.in: Removed one excess source file tclDToA.c
2003-05-16 Daniel Steffen <[email protected]>
* macosx/Tcl.pbproj/project.pbxproj: updated copyright year.
2003-05-15 Kevin B. Kenny <[email protected]>
* generic/tclGetDate.y: added further hackery to the yacc
* generic/tclDate.c: post-processing to arrange for the code to set
* unix/Makefile.in: up exit handlers to free the stacks. [Bug
736425]
2003-05-15 Jeff Hobbs <[email protected]>
* win/tclWinFile.c (TclpMatchInDirectory): revert glob code to r1.44
as 2003-04-11 optimizations broke Windows98 glob'ing.
* doc/socket.n: nroff font handling correction
* library/encoding/gb2312-raw.enc (new): This is the original
gb2312.enc renamed to allow for it to still be used. This is needed by
Tk (unix) because X fonts with gb2312* charsets really do want the
original gb2312 encoding. [Bug 557030]
2003-05-14 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
* generic/tclCmdAH.c (Tcl_FormatObjCmd): Stop unwarranted demotion of
wide values to longs by formatting of int values. [Bug 699060]
2003-05-14 Jeff Hobbs <[email protected]>
* library/encoding/gb2312.enc: copy euc-cn.enc over original
gb2312.enc. gb2312.enc appeared to not work as expected, and most uses
of gb2312 really mean euc-cn (which may be the cause of the problem).
[Bug 557030]
2003-05-14 Daniel Steffen <[email protected]>
Implementation of TIP 118:
* generic/tclFCmd.c (TclFileAttrsCmd): return the list of attributes
that can be retrieved without error for a given file, instead of
aborting the whole command when any error occurs.
* unix/tclUnixFCmd.c: added support for new file attributes and for
copying Mac OS X file attributes & resource fork during [file copy].
* generic/tclInt.decls: added declarations of new external commands
needed by new file attributes support in tclUnixFCmd.c.
* macosx/tclMacOSXFCmd.c (new): Mac OS X specific implementation of
new file attributes and of attribute & resource fork copying.
* mac/tclMacFCmd.c: added implementation of -rsrclength attribute &
fixes to other attributes for consistency with OSX implementation.
* mac/tclMacResource.c: fixes to OSType handling.
* doc/file.n: documentation of [file attributes] changes.
* unix/configure.in: check for APIs needed by new file attributes.
* unix/Makefile.in:
* unix/tcl.m4: added new platform specifc tclMacOSXFCmd.c source.
* unix/configure:
* generic/tclStubInit.c:
* generic/tclIntPlatDecls.h: regen.
* tools/genStubs.tcl: fixes to completely broken code trying to
prevent overlap of "aqua", "macosx", "x11" and "unix" stub entries.
* tests/unixFCmd.test: added tests of -readonly attribute.
* tests/macOSXFCmd.test (new): tests of macosx file attributes and of
preservation of attributes & resource fork during [file copy].
* tests/macFCmd.test: restore -readonly attribute of test dir, as
otherwise its removal can fail on unices supporting -readonly.
2003-05-13 David Gravereaux <[email protected]>
* generic/tclEnv.c: Another putenv() copy behavior problem repaired
when compiling on windows and using microsoft's runtime. [Bug 736421]
2003-05-13 Jeff Hobbs <[email protected]>
* generic/tclIOUtil.c: ensure cd is thread-safe.
[Bug 710642] (vasiljevic)
2003-05-13 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
* generic/tclEvent.c (Tcl_Finalize): Removed unused variable to reduce
compiler warnings. [Bug 664745]
2003-05-13 Joe Mistachkin <[email protected]>
* generic/tcl.decls: Changed Tcl_JoinThread parameter name from
* generic/tclDecls.h: "id" to "threadId". [Bug 732477]
* unix/tclUnixThrd.c:
* win/tclWinThrd.c:
* mac/tclMacThrd.c:
2003-05-13 Daniel Steffen <[email protected]>
* generic/tcl.decls:
* macosx/tclMacOSXBundle.c: added extended version of the
Tcl_MacOSXOpenBundleResources() API taking an extra version number
argument: Tcl_MacOSXOpenVersionedBundleResources(). This is needed to
be able to access bundle resources in versioned frameworks such as Tcl
and Tk, otherwise if multiple versions were installed, only the latest
version's resources could be accessed. [Bug 736774]
* unix/tclUnixInit.c (Tcl_MacOSXGetLibraryPath): use new versioned
bundle resource API to get tcl runtime library for TCL_VERSION. [Bug
736774]
* generic/tclPlatDecls.h:
* generic/tclStubInit.c: regen.
* unix/tclUnixPort.h: worked around the issue of realpath() not
being thread-safe on Mac OS X by defining NO_REALPATH for threaded
builds on Mac OS X. [Bug 711232]
2003-05-12 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
* tests/cmdAH.test: General clean-up of tests so that all
tcltest-specific commands are protected by constraints and all
platforms see the same number of tests. [Bug 736431]
2003-05-12 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* generic/tclInterp.c: (AliasObjCmd): Added refCounting of the words
* tests/interp.test (interp-33.1): of the target of an interp
alias during its execution. Also added test. [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).
* tests/cmdMZ.test: Forgot to import [temporaryDirectory].
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 Jeff Hobbs <[email protected]>
* win/tclWinSerial.c (SerialCloseProc): correct mem leak on closing a
Windows serial port [Bug 718002] (schroedter)
* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_StringObjCmd): prevent string repeat crash
when overflow sizes were given (throws error). [Bug 714106]
2003-05-09 Joe Mistachkin <[email protected]>
* 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]
2003-05-09 Miguel Sofer <[email protected]>
* generic/tclCompile.c (TclCompileScript):
* tests/compile.test (compile-3.5): corrected wrong test and
behaviour in the earlier fix for [Bug 705406]; Don Porter reported
this as [Bug 735055], and provided the solution.
2003-05-09 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_ReturnObjCmd): The array of strings passed
to Tcl_GetIndexFromObj must be NULL terminated. [Bug 735186]
Thanks to Joe Mistachkin for spotting this.
2003-05-07 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
* doc/trace.n: Fixed very strange language in the documentation for
'trace add execution'. [Bug 729821]
* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_TraceObjCmd): Made error message for 'trace
info' more consistent with documentation. [Bug 706961]
* generic/tclDictObj.c (DictInfoCmd): Fixed memory leak caused by
confusion about string ownership. [Bug 731706]
2003-05-05 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* generic/tclBasic.c: Implementation of TIP 90, which
* generic/tclCmdAH.c: extends the [catch] and [return]
* generic/tclCompCmds.c: commands to enable creation of a
* generic/tclExecute.c: proc that is a replacement for
* generic/tclInt.h: [return]. [Patch 531640]
* generic/tclProc.c:
* generic/tclResult.c:
* tests/cmdAH.test:
* tests/cmdMZ.test:
* tests/error.test:
* tests/proc-old.test:
* 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 <[email protected]>
* generic/tclBasic.c (Tcl_HideCommand): Fixed error message for
grammar and spelling.
2003-04-28 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
* generic/tclDictObj.c (DictIncrCmd): Updated to reflect the behaviour
with wide increments of the normal [incr] command.
* generic/tclInt.decls: Added TclIncrWideVar2 to internal stub table
and cleaned up.
* tests/incr.test (incr-3.*):
* generic/tclVar.c (TclIncrWideVar2, TclPtrIncrWideVar):
* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode):
* generic/tclCmdIL.c (Tcl_IncrObjCmd): Make [incr] work when trying to
increment by wide values. [Bug 728838]
* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileSwitchCmd): Default mode of
operation of [switch] is exact matching. [Bug 727563]
2003-04-25 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* win/tclWinThrd.c: Applied SF 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).
2003-04-24 Vince Darley <[email protected]>
* 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.
* tests/fileName.test: added test for the above bug.
2003-04-22 Andreas Kupries <[email protected]>
* The changes below fix SF bugs [593810], and [718045].
* generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_CutChannel, Tcl_SpliceChannel): Invoke
TclpCutSockChannel and TclpSpliceSockChannel.
* generic/tclInt.h: Declare TclpCutSockChannel and
TclpSpliceSockChannel.
* unix/tclUnixSock.c (TclpCutSockChannel, TclpSpliceSockChannel):
Dummy functions, on unix the sockets are _not_ handled specially.
* mac/tclMacSock.c (TclpCutSockChannel, TclpSpliceSockChannel):
* win/tclWinSock.c (TclpCutSockChannel, TclpSpliceSockChannel): New
functions to handle socket specific cut/splice operations: auto-init
of socket system for thread on splice, management of the module
internal per-thread list of sockets, management of association of
sockets with HWNDs for event notification.
* win/tclWinSock.c (NewSocketInfo): Extended initialization
assignments to cover all items of the structure. During debugging of
the new code mentioned above I found that two fileds could contain
bogus data.
* win/tclWinFile.c: Added #undef HAVE_NO_FINDEX_ENUMS before
definition because when compiling in debug mode the compiler complains
about a redefinition, and this warning is also treated as an error.
2003-04-21 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* win/tclWinInt.h (VER_PLATFORM_WIN32_CE): conditionally define.
* win/tclWinInit.c: recognize Windows CE as a Win platform. This just
recognizes CE - full support will come later.
* win/configure: regen
* win/configure.in (SHELL): force it to /bin/sh as autoconf 2.5x
uses /bin/bash, which can fail to find exes in the path (ie: lib).
* generic/tclExecute.c (ExprCallMathFunc): remove incorrect
extraneous cast from Tcl_WideAsDouble.
2003-04-18 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
* doc/open.n: Moved serial port options from [fconfigure] to
* doc/fconfigure.n: [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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* doc/socket.n: Added a paragraph to remind people to specify their
encodings when using sockets. [Bug 630621]
2003-04-16 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
* doc/CrtMathFnc.3: Functions also have to deal with wide ints, but
this was not documented. [Bug 709720]
2003-04-16 Vince Darley <[email protected]>
* generic/tclPathObj.c: removed undesired 'static' for function which
is now shared (previously it was duplicated).
2003-04-15 Joe English <[email protected]>
* doc/namespace.n: added example section "SCOPED SCRIPTS", supplied by
Kevin Kenny. [Bug 219183]
2003-04-15 Kevin Kenny <[email protected]>
* makefile.vc: Updated makefile.vc to conform with Mo DeJong's changes
to Makefile.in and tclWinPipe.c on 2003-04-14. Now passes TCL_PIPE_DLL
in place of TCL_DBGX.
* win/tclWinTime.c: Corrected use of types to make compilation
compatible with VC++5.
2003-04-15 Vince Darley <[email protected]>
* generic/tclIOUtil.c: finished check-in from yesterday, removing
duplicate function definition.
2003-04-14 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* generic/tclClock.c: Corrected compiler warnings.
* generic/tclTest.c:
2003-04-14 Mo DeJong <[email protected]>
* 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/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.
2003-04-14 Kevin Kenny <[email protected]>
* win/tclWinFile.c: added conditionals to restore compilation on
VC++6, which was broken by recent changes.
2003-04-14 Vince Darley <[email protected]>
* generic/tclIOUtil.c:
* generic/tclPathObj.c:
* generic/tclFileSystem.h: overlooked one function which was
duplicated, so this is now shared between modules.
* win/tclWinFile.c: allow this file to compile with VC++ 5.2 again
since Mingw build fixes broke that.
2003-04-13 Mo DeJong <[email protected]>
* win/configure: Regen.
* win/configure.in: Add check for FINDEX_INFO_LEVELS from winbase.h,
known to be a problem in VC++ 5.2. Define HAVE_NO_FINDEX_ENUMS if the
define does not exist.
* win/tclWinFile.c: Put declarations for FINDEX_INFO_LEVELS and
FINDEX_SEARCH_OPS inside a check for HAVE_NO_FINDEX_ENUMS so that
these are not declared twice. This fixes the Mingw build.
* win/tclWinTime.c: Rework the init of timeInfo so that the number or
initializers matches the declaration. This was broken under Mingw. Add
cast to avoid compile warning when calling the AccumulateSample
function.
2003-04-12 Jeff Hobbs <[email protected]>
* win/Makefile.in (GENERIC_OBJS): add missing tclPathObj.c
2003-04-12 Kevin Kenny <[email protected]>
* doc/clock.n:
* generic/tclClock.c (Tcl_ClockObjCmd):
* tests/clock.test: Implementation of TIP #124. Also 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 :)
2003-04-11 Vince Darley <[email protected]>
* tests/cmdAH.test: fix 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:
* generic/tclPathObj.c: (new file)
* generic/tclFileSystem.h: (new file)
* win/makefile.vc:
Split path object handling out of the virtual filesystem layer, into
tclPathObj.c. This refactoring cleans up the internal filesystem code,
and will make any future optimisations and forthcoming better
thread-safety much easier.
* generic/tclTest.c:
* tests/reg.test: added some 'knownBug' tests for problems in Tcl's
regexp code with the TCL_REG_CAN_MATCH flag (see Bug 703709). Code too
impenetrable to fix right now, but a fix is needed for tip113 to work
correctly.
* tests/fCmd.test
* win/tclWinFile.c: added some filesystem optimisation to the 'glob'
implementation, and some new tests.
* generic/tclCmdMZ.c: fix typo in comment
* tests/winFile.test:
* tests/ioUtil.test:
* tests/unixFCmd.test: renumbered tests with duplicate numbers. [Bug
710361]
2003-04-10 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
* doc/binary.n: Fixed typo in [binary format w] desc. [Bug 718543]
2003-04-08 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileIfCmd): Corrected string limits of
arguments interpolated in error messages. [Bug 711371]
* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (TraceExecutionProc): Added missing
Tcl_DiscardResult() call to avoid memory leak.
2003-04-07 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
* generic/tclDictObj.c (Tcl_DictObjCmd): Stopped compilers from
moaning about switch fall-through. [Bug 716327]
(DictFilterCmd): Yet more warning killing, this time reported by
Miguel Sofer by private chat.
2003-04-07 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
* tests/dict.test (dict-2.6):
* generic/tclDictObj.c (Tcl_NewDictObj, Tcl_DbNewDictObj): Oops!
Failed to fully initialise the Dict structure.
(DictIncrCmd): Moved valueAlreadyInDictionary label to stop compiler
complaints. [Bug 715751]
* generic/tclDictObj.c (DictIncrCmd): Followed style in the rest of
the core by commenting out wide-specific operations on platforms where
wides are longs, and used longs more thoroughly than ints through
[dict incr] anyway to forestall further bugs.
* generic/tclObj.c: Made sure there's always a tclWideIntType
implementation available, not that it is always useful. [Bug 713562]
2003-04-05 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
* generic/tclDictObj.c: Removed commented out notes on declarations to
be moved to elsewhere in the Tcl core.
* generic/tclInt.h: Final stages of plumbing in.
* generic/tclBasic.c:
* generic/tclObj.c (TclInitObjSubsystem):
* unix/Makefile.in, win/Makefile.in, win/makefile.[bv]c: Build support.
* generic/tcl.decls: Added dict public API to stubs table.
* generic/tcl.h (Tcl_DictSearch): Added declaration of structure to
allow user code to iterate over dictionaries.
* doc/DictObj.3: New files containing dictionary implementation
* doc/dict.n: documentation and tests as as mandated by TIP
* generic/tclDictObj.c: #111.
* tests/dict.test:
2003-04-03 Mo DeJong <[email protected]>
* unix/configure:
* unix/tcl.m4 (SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS): Don't set TCL_LIBS if it is already
set to support use of TCL_LIBS var from tclConfig.sh in the Tk
configure script.
2003-04-03 Mo DeJong <[email protected]>
* unix/Makefile.in: Don't subst MATH_LIBS, LIBS, and DL_LIBS
separately. Instead, just subst TCL_LIBS since it includes the
others.
* unix/configure: Regen.
* unix/tcl.m4 (SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS, SC_TCL_LINK_LIBS): Set and subst
TCL_LIBS in SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS instead of SC_TCL_LINK_LIBS. Don't subst
MATH_LIBS since it is now covered by TCL_LIBS.
* unix/tclConfig.sh.in: Use TCL_LIBS instead of DL_LIBS, LIBS, and
MATH_LIBS.
* unix/dltest/Makefile.in: Ditto.
2003-04-03 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileReturnCmd): Now that [return]
compiles to INST_RETURN, it is safe to compile even outside a proc.
2003-04-02 Mo DeJong <[email protected]>
* 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.
2003-04-02 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* generic/tclParse.c (TclSubstTokens): Moved declaration of
utfCharBytes to beginning of procedure so that it does not go out of
scope (get free()d) while append is still pointing to it. [Bugs
703167, 713754]
2003-04-01 Mo DeJong <[email protected]>
* unix/configure: Regen.
* unix/tcl.m4 (SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS): Check for inet_ntoa in -lbind inside
the BeOS block since doing it later broke the build under SuSE 7.3.
[Bug 713128]
2003-04-01 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* tests/README: Direct [source] of *.test files is no longer
recommended. The tests/*.test files should only be evaluated under the
control of the [runAllTests] command in tests/all.tcl.
* generic/tclExecute.c (INST_RETURN): Bytecompiled [return] failed to
reset iPtr->returnCode, causing tests parse-18.17 and parse-18.21 to
fail strangely.
* tests/parse.test (parse-18.21): Corrected now functioning test.
Added further coverage tests.
2003-03-31 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* tests/parse.test (parse-18.*): Coverage tests for the new
implementation of Tcl_SubstObj(). Note that tests parse-18.17 and
parse-18.21 demonstrate some bugs left to fix in the current code.
2003-03-27 Mo DeJong <[email protected]>
* unix/configure: Regen.
* unix/tcl.m4 (SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS): Use -Wl,--export-dynamic instead of
-rdynamic for LDFLAGS. The -rdynamic is not documented so it seems
better to pass the --export-dynamic flag to the linker. [Patch 573395]
2003-03-27 Miguel Sofer <[email protected]>
* tests/encoding.test:
* tests/proc-old.test:

* unix/configure: Regen.
* unix/tcl.m4 (SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS, SC_TCL_LINK_LIBS): Add BeOS system to
SC_CONFIG_CFLAGS. Check for inet_ntoa in -lbind, needed for BeOS.
2003-03-26 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* doc/tcltest.n:
* library/tcltest/tcltest.tcl: Added reporting during [configure
-debug 1] operations to warn about multiple uses of the same test
name. [FRQ 576693]
* 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 <[email protected]>
* generic/tclVar.c:
* tests/var.test: fixing ObjMakeUpvar's lookup algorithm for the
created local variable. [Bug 631741] (Chris Darroch) and [Bug 696893]
(David Hilker)
2003-03-24 Pat Thoyts <[email protected]>
* library/dde/pkgIndex.tcl: bumped version to 1.2.2 in tclWinDde.c,
now adding here too.
2003-03-22 Kevin Kenny <[email protected]>
* 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.
2003-03-22 Pat Thoyts <[email protected]>
* win/tclWinDde.c: Make dde services conform the the documentation
such that giving only a topic name really returns all services with
that topic. [Bug 219155]
Prevent hangup caused by dde server applications failing to process
messages. [Bug 707822]
* tests/winDde.test: Corrected labels and added a test for search by
topic name.

* generic/tclInt.h (tclOriginalNotifier):

* 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 <[email protected]>
* generic/tclCompile.c:
* tests/compile.test: bad command count on TCL_OUT_LINE_COMPILE.
[Bug 705406] (Don Porter)
2003-03-19 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* library/auto.tcl: Replaced [regexp] and [regsub] with

* generic/tclCompile.h (INST_RETURN): bytecode INST_RETURN to
* generic/tclExecute.c (INST_RETURN): properly bytecode the [return]
command to something that returns TCL_RETURN.
2003-03-18 Mo DeJong <[email protected]>
* win/configure: Regen.
* win/configure.in: Don't run the AC_CYGWIN macro since it uses
AC_CANONICAL_HOST under autoconf 2.5X. Just check to see if __CYGWIN__
is defined by the compiler and set the ac_cv_cygwin variable based on
that. [Bug 705912]
2003-03-18 Kevin Kenny <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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.
2003-03-17 Mo DeJong <[email protected]>
* tests/format.test: Renumber tests, a bunch of tests all had the same
id.
2003-03-17 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
* 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

2003-03-14 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
* 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 Mo DeJong <[email protected]>
* win/tcl.m4 (SC_WITH_TCL): Port version number fix that was made in
tk instead of tcl sources.
2003-03-13 Mo DeJong <[email protected]>
Require autoconf 2.57 or newer, see TIP 34 for a detailed explanation
of why this is good. This will no doubt break the build on some
platforms, let the flaming begin.
* tools/configure: Regen with autoconf 2.57.
* tools/configure.in: Require autoconf 2.57.
* unix/configure: Regen with autoconf 2.57.
* unix/configure.in: Require autoconf 2.57.
Apply AC_LIBOBJ changes from patch 529884.
* unix/tcl.m4: Ditto.
* win/configure: Regen with autoconf 2.57.
* win/configure.in: Require autoconf 2.57.
Don't subst LIBOBJS since this happens by default, this avoids an
autoconf error.

* generic/tclParse.c (ParseTokens,Tcl_SubstObj,TclSubstTokens):
* tests/subst.test (2.4, 8.7, 8.8, 11.4, 11.5):
Substantial refactoring of Tcl_SubstObj to make use of the same
parsing and substitution procedures as normal script evaluation.
Tcl_SubstObj() moved to tclParse.c. New routine TclSubstTokens()
created in tclParse.c which implements all substantial functioning of
Tcl_EvalTokensStandard(). TclCompileScript() loses its "nested"
argument, the Tcl_Interp struct loses its termOffset field and the
TCL_BRACKET_TERM flag in the evalFlags field, all of which were only
used (indirectly) by Tcl_SubstObj(). Tests subst-8.7,8.8,11.4,11.5
modified to accomodate the only behavior change: reporting of parse
errors now takes precedence over [return] and [continue] exceptions.
All other behavior should remain compatible. [RFE 536831,684982] [Bug
685106]
* generic/tcl.h: Removed TCL_PREFIX_IDENT and TCL_DEBUG_IDENT
* win/tclWinPipe.c: from tcl.h -- they are not part of Tcl's
public interface. Put them in win/tclWinPipe.c where they are used.
* 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 <[email protected]>
* win/makefile.vc: Added two missing uses of $(DBGX) so that
tclpip8x.dll loads without panicking on Win9x.
2003-03-09 Kevin Kenny <[email protected]>
* generic/tclTest.c (TestChannelCmd): Removed an unused local variable
that caused compilation problems on some platforms.
2003-03-08 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* doc/tcltest.n: Added missing "-body" to example. Thanks to Helmut
Giese. [Bug 700011]
2003-03-07 Mo DeJong <[email protected]>
* tests/io.test:
* tests/ioCmd.test: Define a fcopy constraint and add it to the
constraint list of any test that depends on the fcopy command. This is
only useful to Jacl which does not support fcopy.
2003-03-07 Mo DeJong <[email protected]>
* tests/encoding.test: Name temp files *.tcltestout instead of *.out
so that when they are removed later, we don't accidently toast any
files named *.out that the user has created in the build directory.
2003-03-07 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
* generic/tclCmdAH.c (Tcl_FileObjCmd): Fix the setting of a file's
mtime and atime on 64-bit platforms. [Bug 698146]
2003-03-06 Mo DeJong <[email protected]>
* tests/io.test: Doh! Undo accidental commenting out of a couple of
tests.
2003-03-06 Mo DeJong <[email protected]>
* tests/io.test: Define a fileevent constraint and add it to the
constraint list of any test that depends on the fileevent command.
This is only useful to Jacl which does not support fileevent.
2003-03-06 Mo DeJong <[email protected]>
* tests/io.test: Define an openpipe constraint and add it to the
constraint list of any test that creates a pipe using the open
command. This is only useful to Jacl which does not support pipes.
2003-03-06 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* generic/TclUtf.c (Tcl_UniCharNcasecmp): Corrected failure to
* tests/utf.test (utf-25.*): properly compare Unicode strings of
different case in a case insensitive manner. [Bug 699042]
2003-03-06 Kevin Kenny <[email protected]>
* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileSwitchCmd):
Replaced a non-portable 'bzero' with a portable 'memset'. [Bug 698442]
2003-03-06 Mo DeJong <[email protected]>
* generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_Seek, Tcl_OutputBuffered): If there is data
buffered in the statePtr->curOutPtr member then set the BUFFER_READY
flag in Tcl_Seek. This is needed so that the next call to FlushChannel
will write any buffered bytes before doing the seek. The existing code
would set the BUFFER_READY flag inside the Tcl_OutputBuffered
function. This was a programming error made when Tcl_OutputBuffered
was originally created in CVS revision 1.35. The setting of the
BUFFER_READY flag should not have been included in the
Tcl_OutputBuffered function.
* generic/tclTest.c (TestChannelCmd): Use the Tcl_InputBuffered and
Tcl_OutputBuffered util methods to query the amount of buffered input
and output.
2003-03-06 Mo DeJong <[email protected]>
* generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_Flush): Compare the nextAdded member of the
ChannelBuffer to the nextRemoved member to determine if any output has
been buffered. The previous check against the value 0 seems to have
just been a coding error. See other methods like Tcl_OutputBuffered
for examples where nextAdded is compared to nextRemoved to find the
number of bytes buffered.
2003-03-06 Mo DeJong <[email protected]>
* generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_GetsObj): Check that the eol pointer has not
gone past the end of the string when in auto translation mode and the
INPUT_SAW_CR flag is set. The previous code worked because the end of
string value \0 was being compared to \n, this patch just skips that
pointless check.
2003-03-06 Mo DeJong <[email protected]>
* generic/tclIO.c (WriteBytes, WriteChars, Tcl_GetsObj, ReadBytes):
Rework calls to TranslateOutputEOL to make it clear that a boolean
value is being returned. Add some comments in an effort to make the
code more clear. This patch makes no functional changes.
2003-03-06 Mo DeJong <[email protected]>
* generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_SetChannelOption): Invoke the
Tcl_SetChannelBufferSize method as a result of changing the
-buffersize option to fconfigure. The previous implementation used
some inlined code that reset the buffer size to the default size
instead of ignoring the request as implemented in
Tcl_SetChannelBufferSize.
* tests/io.test: Update test case so that it actually checks the
implementation of Tcl_SetChannelBufferSize.
2003-03-05 David Gravereaux <[email protected]>
* win/rules.vc: updated default tcl version to 8.5.
2003-03-05 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileSwitchCmd): First attempt at a
bytecode-compiled switch command. It only handles the most common case
of switching, but that should be enough for this to speed up a lot of
people's code. It is expected that the speed gains come from two
things: better handling of the switch itself, and integrated
compilation of the arms instead of embedding separate bytecode
sequences (i.e. better local variable handling.)
* tests/switch.test (switch-10.*): Tests of both uncompiled and
compiled switch behaviour. [Patch #644819]
* generic/tclCompile.h (TclFixupForwardJumpToHere): Additional macro
to make the most common kind of jump fixup a bit easier.

with high performance clock.
2003-02-27 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
* tests/lsearch.test (lsearch-10.7):
* generic/tclCmdIL.c (Tcl_LsearchObjCmd): Stopped -start option from
causing an option when used with an empty list. [Bug 694232]
2003-02-26 Chengye Mao <[email protected]>
* win/tclWinInit.c: fixed a bug in TclpSetVariables by initializing
dwUserNameLen with the sizeof(szUserName) before calling GetUserName.
Don't know if this bug has been recorded: it caused crash in starting
Tcl or wish in Windows.
2003-02-26 Jeff Hobbs <[email protected]>
* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (TraceCommandProc): Fix mem leak when deleting a
command that had trace on it. [Bug 693564] (sofer)
2003-02-25 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* doc/pkgMkIndex.n: Modified [pkg_mkIndex] to use -nocase matching
* library/package.tcl: of -load patterns, to better accomodate common
user errors due to confusion between [package names] names and [info
loaded] names.
2003-02-25 Andreas Kupries <[email protected]>
* tests/pid.test: See below [Bug 678412].
* tests/io.test: Made more robust against spaces in paths [Bug 678400]
2003-02-25 Miguel Sofer <[email protected]>
* tests/execute.test: cleaning up testobj's at the end, to avoid
leak warning by valgrind.
2003-02-22 Zoran Vasiljevic <[email protected]>
* generic/tclEvent.c (Tcl_FinalizeThread): Fix [Bug 571002]
2003-02-21 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
* tests/binary.test (binary-44.[34]):
* generic/tclBinary.c (ScanNumber): Fixed problem with unwanted
sign-bit propagation when scanning wide ints. [Bug 690774]
2003-02-21 Daniel Steffen <[email protected]>
* mac/tclMacChan.c (TclpCutFileChannel, TclpSpliceFileChannel):
Implemented missing cut and splice procs for file channels.
2003-02-21 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* library/package.tcl (tclPkgUnknown): Minor performance tweaks to
reduce the number of [file] invocations. Meant to improve startup
times, at least a little bit. [Patch 687906]
2003-02-20 Daniel Steffen <[email protected]>
* unix/tcl.m4:
* unix/tclUnixPipe.c: (macosx) use vfork() instead of fork() to create
new processes, as recommended by Apple (vfork can be up to 100 times
faster thank fork on macosx).
* unix/configure: regen.
2003-02-20 Jeff Hobbs <[email protected]>
* generic/tclEncoding.c (LoadTableEncoding):
* library/encoding/cp932.enc: Correct jis round-trip encoding
* library/encoding/euc-jp.enc: by adding 'R' type to .enc files.
* library/encoding/iso2022-jp.enc: [Patch 689341] (koboyasi, taguchi)
* library/encoding/jis0208.enc:
* library/encoding/shiftjis.enc:
* tests/encoding.test:
* unix/tclUnixChan.c (Tcl_MakeTcpClientChannel): add
MakeTcpClientChannelMode that takes actual mode flags to avoid hang on
OS X (may be OS X bug, but patch works x-plat). [Bug 689835] (steffen)
2003-02-20 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>
* doc/regsub.n: Typo fix [Bug 688943]
2003-02-19 Jeff Hobbs <[email protected]>
* unix/tclUnixThrd.c (TclpReaddir):
* unix/tclUnixPort.h: update to Bug 689100 patch to ensure that there
is a defined value of MAXNAMLEN (aka NAME_MAX in POSIX) and that we
have some buffer allocated.
2003-02-19 Daniel Steffen <[email protected]>
* generic/tclStringObj.c: restored Tcl_SetObjLength() side-effect of
always invalidating unicode rep (if the obj has a string rep). Added
hasUnicode flag to String struct, allows decoupling of validity of
unicode rep from buffer size allocated to it (improves memory
allocation efficiency). [Bugs 686782, 671138, 635200]
* macosx/Tcl.pbproj/project.pbxproj:
* macosx/Makefile: reworked embedded build to no longer require
relinking but to use install_name_tool instead to change the
install_names for embedded frameworks. [Bug 644510]
* macosx/Tcl.pbproj/project.pbxproj: preserve mod dates when running
'make install' to build framework (avoids bogus rebuilds of dependent
frameworks because tcl headers appear changed).
* tests/ioCmd.test (iocmd-1.8): fix failure when system encoding is
utf-8: use iso8859-1 encoding explicitly.
2003-02-18 Miguel Sofer <[email protected]>
* generic/tclCompile.c (TclCompileExprWords): remove unused variable
"range" [Bug 664743]

"result" [Bug 664743]
* generic/tclStringObj.c (UpdateStringOfString): remove unused
variable "length" [Bug 664751]
* tests/execute.test (execute-7.30): fix for [Bug 664775]
2003-02-18 Andreas Kupries <[email protected]>
* unix/tcl.m4: [Bug #651811] Added definition of _XOPEN_SOURCE and
linkage of 'xnet' library to HP 11 branch. This kills a lot of
socket-related failures in the testsuite when Tcl was compiled in 64
bit mode (both PA-RISC 2.0W, and IA 64).
* unix/configure: Regenerated.
2003-02-18 Jeff Hobbs <[email protected]>
* generic/tclIO.c (HaveVersion): correctly decl static
* unix/tclUnixThrd.c (TclpReaddir): reduce size of name string in tsd
to NAME_MAX instead of PATH_MAX. [Bug 689100] (waters)
2003-02-18 Mo DeJong <[email protected]>
* unix/configure: Regen.
* unix/tcl.m4 (SC_ENABLE_THREADS): Make sure -lpthread gets passed on
the link line when checking for the pthread_attr_setstacksize symbol.
2003-02-18 Vince Darley <[email protected]>
* generic/tclTest.c: cleanup of new 'simplefs' test code, and better
documentation.
2003-02-17 Miguel Sofer <[email protected]>
* generic/tclBasic.c (TclRenameCommand): fixing error in previous
commit.
2003-02-17 Jeff Hobbs <[email protected]>
* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExecuteByteCode INST_STR_MATCH):
* generic/tclCmdMZ.c (Tcl_StringObjCmd STR_MATCH):
* generic/tclUtf.c (TclUniCharMatch):
* generic/tclInt.decls: add private TclUniCharMatch function that
* generic/tclIntDecls.h: does string match on counted unicode
* generic/tclStubInit.c: strings. Tcl_UniCharCaseMatch has the failing
* tests/string.test: that it can't handle strings or patterns with
* tests/stringComp.test: embedded NULLs. Added tests that actually try
strings/pats with NULLs. TclUniCharMatch should be TIPed and made
public in the next minor version rev.
2003-02-17 Miguel Sofer <[email protected]>
* generic/tclBasic.c (TclRenameCommand): 'oldFullName' object was not
being freed on all function exits, causing a memory leak. [Bug 684756]
2003-02-17 Mo DeJong <[email protected]>
* generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_GetsObj): Minor change so that eol is only
assigned at the top of the TCL_TRANSLATE_AUTO case block. The other
cases assign eol so this does not change any functionality.
2003-02-17 Kevin Kenny <[email protected]>

* tests/notify.test (new-file):
* generic/tclTest.c (TclTest_Init, EventtestObjCmd, EventtestProc,
(EventTestDeleteProc):
* generic/tclNotify.c (Tcl_DeleteEvents): Fixed Tcl_DeleteEvents not
to get a pointer smash when deleting the last event in the queue.
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 Kevin Kenny <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* tests/lsearch.test:
* generic/tclCmdIL.c (Tcl_LsearchObjCmd): protect against the case
that lsearch -regepx list and pattern objects are equal.
* tests/stringObj.test:

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 <[email protected]>
* generic/tclParse.c (CommandComplete):
* tests/parse.test: fix for [Bug 684744], by Don Porter.
2003-02-11 Jeff Hobbs <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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, and 634772 and marking as "Won't fix".
2003-02-10 Donal K. Fellows <[email protected]>

* generic/tclIOUtil.c:
* generic/tclInt.h:
* tests/fileSystem.test:
* unix/tclUnixFCmd.c:
* unix/tclUnixFile.c:
* win/tclWinFile.c: further filesystem optimization, applying [Patch
682500]. 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 <[email protected]>
* library/safe.tcl: code cleanup of eval and string comp use.
2003-02-07 Vince Darley <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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.

* win/tclWin32Dll.c:
* win/tclWinFCmd.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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* tests/main.test: Constrain tests that do not work on Windows. [Bug
674387]
2003-01-28 Vince Darley <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* win/README: Update msys+mingw URL to release 6. This version bundles
gcc 3.
2003-01-26 Mo DeJong <[email protected]>
* win/configure: Regen.
* win/configure.in: Add test that checks to see if the compiler can

by casting to union type when compiling with gcc.
2003-01-25 Mo DeJong <[email protected]>
* generic/tclIO.c (Tcl_CutChannel, Tcl_SpliceChannel): Invoke
TclpCutFileChannel and TclpSpliceFileChannel.

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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* doc/lset.n: Fixed fault in return values from lset in documentation
examples [SF Bug #658463] and tidied up a bit at the same time.
2003-01-21 Joe English <[email protected]>
* doc/namespace.n (namespace inscope): Clarified documentation
[Patch 670110]
2003-01-21 Mo DeJong <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* generic/tclCkalloc.c: change %ud to %u as appropriate.
2003-01-17 Mo DeJong <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* generic/tclStringObj.c: Tcl_SetObjLength fix for when the object has
a unicode string rep. [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 [Bug 655645], [Bug 615043], [Bug 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* generic/tclClock.c (FormatClock): corrected typo that incorrectly
conditionally defined savedTZEnv and savedTimeZone.
2003-01-13 Mo DeJong <[email protected]>
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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileReturnCmd): Corrected off-by-one
problem with recent commit. [Bug 633204]
2003-01-09 Vince Darley <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* generic/tclExecute.c (TclExprFloatError): Use the IS_NAN macro for
greater clarity of code.
2003-01-07 Don Porter <[email protected]>
* 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 <[email protected]>
* 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.
