2003-12-25 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
* 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 <davygrvy@pobox.com>
* generic/tclAlloc.c: All uses of 'panic' (the macro) changed to
* generic/tclBasic.c: 'Tcl_Panic' (the function). The #define of
* generic/tclBinary.c: panic in tcl.h clearly states it is deprecated
* generic/tclCkalloc.c: in the comments. [Patch 865264]
* generic/tclCmdAH.c:
* generic/tclCmdIL.c:
* generic/tclCmdMZ.c:
* generic/tclCompCmds.c:

* win/tclWinSock.c:
* win/tclWinThrd.c:
* generic/tclInt.h: Deprecated use of Tcl_Ckalloc changed to
Tcl_Alloc in the TclAllocObjStorage macro.
2003-12-22 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
* 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 <davygrvy@pobox.com>
* 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 <das@users.sourceforge.net>
* generic/tclBinary.c (DeleteScanNumberCache): fixed crashing bug when
numeric scan-value cache contains NULL value.
2003-12-17 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
* generic/tclCmdAH.c:
* unix/tclUnixFile.c:
* win/tclWinFCmd.c:
* tests/fCmd.test:
* tests/fileSystem.test:
* doc/file.n: final fix to support for relative links and its
implications on normalization and other parts of the filesystem code.
Fixes [Bug 859251] and some Windows problems with recursive file
delete/copy and symbolic links.
2003-12-17 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
* generic/tclPathObj.c:
* tests/fileSystem.test: fix and tests for [Bug 860402] in new file
normalization code.
2003-12-17 Zoran Vasiljevic <zv@archiware.com>
* generic/tclIOUtil.c: fixed 2 memory (object) leaks. [Bug 839519]
* generic/tclPathObj.c: fixed Tcl_FSGetTranslatedPath to always return
properly refcounted path object. [Bug 861515]
2003-12-16 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
* 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 <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
* generic/tclThreadAlloc.c (binfo): Made variable file-local.
2003-12-15 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
* 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 <hgiese@ratiosoft.com> [Patch 758097].
2003-12-14 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
* 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 <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
* 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 <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
* 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 <davygrvy@pobox.com>
* 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 <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
* 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.

2003-12-11 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
* 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 <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
* unix/configure:
* unix/tcl.m4: updated OpenBSD build configuration based on
[Patch #775246] (cassoff)
2003-12-09 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
* unix/tclUnixPort.h: #ifdef'd out declarations of errno which are

2003-12-02 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
* 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 <msofer@users.sf.net>
* doc/lset.n: fix typo [Bug 852224]

fix for Bug 845412.
2003-11-19 Donal K. Fellows <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
* 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 <davygrvy@pobox.com>
* contrib/djgpp/Makefile: Changes from Victor Wagner
* contrib/djgpp/langinfo.c (new): <vitus@45.free.net> for better

* unix/tclUnixChan.c: .
* unix/tclUnixFCmd.c: .
2003-11-17 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
* 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 <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
* 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 <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
* 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 <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>
* 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.

* doc/Tcl.n: Updated Tcl version number and changebars.
2003-11-14 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
* 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 <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
* 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 <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
* 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 <davygrvy@pobox.com>

[Bug 836208]
2003-11-07 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
* generic/tclIOUtil.c: fix to compiler warning/error with some
compilers. [Bug 835918]
2003-11-07 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net>
* macosx/Makefile: optimized builds define NDEBUG to turn off
ThreadAlloc range checking.

* 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 <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
* 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 <msofer@users.sf.net>
* generic/tclExecute.c (NEXT_INST macros): replaced macro variable
"result" by "resultHandling" to avoid confusion.
2003-10-23 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
* 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 <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
* tests/resource.test:

to stop symbol/#def clashes on Cygwin/Mingw32 on NT. [Bug 822528]
2003-10-21 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net>
* 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 <andreask@pliers.activestate.com>
* win/tclWinPipe.c (BuildCommandLine): Applied the patch coming with
[Bug 805605] to the code, fixing the incorrect use of ispace noted by
Ronald Dauster <ronaldd@users.sourceforge.net>.
2003-10-20 Kevin B. Kenny <kennykb@users.sourceforge.net>
* 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 <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
* 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 <davygrvy@pobox.com>
* win/tclAppInit.c (sigHandler): Punt gracefully if exitToken has
already been destroyed.

* generic/tclCmdMZ.c:
* tests/regexp.test: fix to [Bug 823524] in regsub; added three new
tests.
2003-10-14 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
* 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:

reflect slight modifications to Tcl_LogCommandInfo(). Corrects failing
init-4.* tests.

* win/tclWin32Dll.c:
* 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 <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
* unix/tclUnixTest.c (TestalarmCmd): don't bother checking return
value of alarm. [Bug #664755] (english)

2003-10-08 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
* 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 <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
* 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 <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
* tests/cmdAH.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]

that this is an OSX feature, not a general Unix feature. [Bug 619440]
2003-09-28 David Gravereaux <davygrvy@pobox.com>
* win/tclWinPipe.c: The windows port of expect can call
TclWinAddProcess before any of the other pipe functions. Added a
missing PipeInit() call to make sure the initialization happens.
2003-09-25 Daniel Steffen <das@users.sourceforge.net>
* macosx/Makefile: ensure SYMROOT exists if OBJROOT is overridden on
command line. Replaced explict use of /usr/bin by ${BINDIR}.
2003-09-24 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
* 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

cause problems.
2003-09-20 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
* 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 <msofer@users.sf.net>
* generic/tclExecute.c: adding (DE)CACHE_STACK_INFO() pairs to protect
all calls that may cause traces on ::errorInfo or ::errorCode to
corrupt the stack. [Bug 804681]
2003-09-17 Vince Darley <vincentdarley@users.sourceforge.net>
* tclPathObj.c: fix to test-suite problem introduced by the bug fix

* generic/tclPathObj.c: fix for normalization of volume-relative paths
[Bug 767834]

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 <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
* 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 <davygrvy@pobox.com>
* 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 <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
* 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 <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
* 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 <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
* 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 <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
* 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 <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
* doc/catch.n: Updated [catch] docs to cover new TIP 90 features.
2003-08-29 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
* 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 <davygrvy@pobox.com>
* 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 <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
* 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 <davygrvy@pobox.com>
* 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 <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
* 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
compatibility for those extensions which are already clients of the
namespace code.
2003-08-23 Zoran Vasiljevic <zoran@archiwrae.com>
* 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 <patthoyts@users.sourceforge.net>
* win/tclWinSerial.c (SerialErrorStr): Fixed a syntax error created in
the previous code cleanup.
2003-08-19 Donal K. Fellows <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
* win/tclWinSerial.c: Adjusted commenting and spacing usage to follow
the principles of the Style Guide better.
2003-08-18 Mo DeJong <mdejong@users.sourceforge.net>
* 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 <chengye.geo@yahoo.com>
* 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 <fellowsd@cs.man.ac.uk>
TIP #136 IMPLEMENTATION from Simon Geard <simon.geard@ntlworld.com>
* 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 <jeffh@ActiveState.com>
* win/tclWinInit.c: recognize amd64 and ia32_on_win64 cpus.
