Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/IOStream.h: removed DIGITAL_UNIX from #include decision, + so now it just depends on DEC_CXX and its version. Thanks to + Dani Flexer <danif@ivory-sw.com> for this fix. + + * netsvcs/lib/Server_Logging_Handler.cpp: updated template + instantiations to match recent change to Server_Logging_Handler_T.h. + +Sat Nov 22 19:16:35 1997 <irfan@TWOSTEP> + + * tests/Process_Strategy_Test.cpp: + + main: Removed signal handling code. It is unnecessary since we + do not use kill() anymore. + + Process_Strategy: This subclass of ACE_Process_Strategy + overwrites the process creation method to include connection + counting. + + connection_completed: Made sure that the Reactor is woken up + after all the connections have completed. + + * ace/Priority_Reactor.cpp (init_bucket): Removed extra code. + + * ace/Acceptor.cpp (activate_svc_handler): open svc_handler only + if result is 0. Also removed extra tracing code. + + * ace/Handle_Set.i (reset): Purify is reporting a UMR + (uninitialized memory copy) when copying a Handle_Set. This + comes from the mask fd_set not being memset to 0 by FD_ZERO. + This is therefore a harmless error. + + * tests/Priority_Reactor_Test.cpp (main): The ordering of + auto_ptrs is very subtle.... "auto_ptr<ACE_Reactor> reactor" + should come before "auto_ptr<ACE_Select_Reactor> impl", i.e., + the implementation should be destroyed *before* the forwarding + class. This is apparent when the implementation class is + removing registered event handlers that hold a pointer to the + forwarding class. + +Sat Nov 22 16:04:07 1997 Carlos O'Ryan <coryan@macarena.cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/Message_Queue.cpp: + Fixed some formating problems in the ACE_Message_Queue::dump + method, thanks to Arturo Montes <mitosys@colomsat.net.co> for + finding this one. + +Sat Nov 22 14:38:22 1997 Steve Huston <shuston@riverace.com> + + * ace/config-aix-4.2.x.h: Added ACE_TLI_TCP_DEVICE "/dev/xti/tcp". + This fixes Riverace problem ID P32; AIX now joins HP-UX in + supporting XTI/TLI, but not everything (problem P27). + + * ace/UPIPE_Connector.h: + * ace/TLI_Connector.h: Added meta-type information PEER_ADDR and + PEER_STREAM.

Fixes Riverace + problem P42. + * examples/Threads/Makefile: Make sure that, on AIX, the tempinc + directory is cleared before building each new program. + + * performance-tests/Synch-Benchmarks/Makefile: Changed SHLIB to use + $(SOEXT) rather than .so.

This is fun. + + * ace/Strategies_T.cpp (activate_svc_handler): Added an + ACE_UNUSED_ARG macro to muffle g++. + + * tests/Process_Strategy_Test.cpp (handle_close): Added a return + type specifier.

I think I get it right this time. + +Fri Nov 21 19:59:37 1997 Carlos O'Ryan <coryan@macarena.cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/IPC_SAP.cpp: + Added a couple of ACE_NOTREACHED protections. Thanks to Brian + Mendel <bmendel@mdc.com> for reporting this. + +Fri Nov 21 17:12:48 1997 <nw1@CHA-CHA> + + * ace/Thread_Manager.cpp (close): Deactivated automatic wait on + close for now. It doesn't seem to work on Solaris. + + * ace/Thread_Manager.{h,cpp} (wait): Added codes to remove detached + threads. This function can be activated selectively. I added + this so we can ignore detached threads when closing down the + default thread manager. + + (close): Activated the code to wait (join) all threads managed + by the thread manager. It will ask wait function to remove all + detached thread first (and so they won't be counted into threads + we are waiting for.) + +Fri Nov 21 13:22:25 1997 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ACE version 4.3.55, released Fri Nov 21 13:22:25 1997. + +Fri Nov 21 12:18:28 1997 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/Acceptor.cpp,Strategy_T.cpp: Removed the use of gotos. See + Dijkstra '67 for motivation... + + * tests/Process_Strategy_Test.cpp (open): Make sure that we set + the Reactor of the Svc_Handler to 0 if we're running the + threading test. + + * tests/Reactor_Notify_Test.cpp: Added back THR_BOUND to + make things work on Solaris. + +Fri Nov 21 02:23:47 1997 <irfan@TWOSTEP> + + * tests/Process_Strategy_Test.cpp: + + - The event loop execution was based on a fragile timeout + mechanism. This was changed to a more robust mechanism that + counts the connections. + + - The unlinking of the file was moved from the server to the + client. This is necessary since there maybe multiple server + processes that cannot really coordinate when the file should + be removed. + + * ace/Strategies_T.cpp (ACE_Concurrency_Strategy): + ACE_Concurrency_Strategy and all three of the subclasses + (ACE_Reactive_Strategy, ACE_Process_Strategy, and + ACE_Thread_Strategy) were messed up. Only ACE_Reactive_Strategy + was (trying) to set the correct blocking mode of the socket. + Therefore, moved the socket mode setting code to the base class, + ACE_Concurrency_Strategy, so that all the classes can share it. + + This did create one problem though. If the implementation of + the reactor uses event associations (i.e., WFMO_Reactor), we + cannot try to set the socket mode since the registration of the + svc_handler caused an event association to be created for the + socket and by default (thanks Microslush) the socket is set to + non-blocking mode. If the user is excepting to have a socket in + blocking mode, he is in for a surprise. Maybe we should return + a failure if the user is expecting a socket in blocking mode. + This is probably too harsh for now. + + * tests/Future_Test.cpp (open): Added THR_DETACHED since we don't + wait for this thread. + + * tests/Reactor_Notify_Test.cpp (open): Changed THR_BOUND to + THR_DETACHED since we don't wait for this thread. + + * tests/IOStream_Test.cpp (server): Make sure to close the socket + in ACE_SOCK_Acceptor and ACE_SOCK_IOStream. + + * ace/WFMO_Reactor.cpp (open): When I changed open() last, I + ignored the order of the registeration of notify_handler_ and + wakeup_all_threads_handler_. Unfortunately, the order of the + two registrations is very important since the optimization for + owner thread takes advantage of this ordering. Therefore, + revert the order of registertion to notify_handler_ followed by + wakeup_all_threads_handler_. + + * tests/version_tests/run_all_tests.bat: Added new bat file to + make the running of all the different configurations easier. + + * tests/version_tests/version_tests.{mak,mdp}: Added a mammoth + testing scheme that is used to test all 8 configurations of the + tests under Win32. These 8 configurations are: + + DLL Debug + DLL Release + DLL Unicode Debug + DLL Unicode Release + static Debug + static Release + static Unicode Debug + static Unicode Release + + run_tests.bat from the test directory can then be used to run + these various configurations. run_tests.bat was also extended + to allow the user to purify the tests. Simply execute + run_tests.bat with the purify command line option. + +Thu Nov 20 17:43:15 1997 <nw1@COYOTE> + + * ace/Thread_Manager.cpp (kill_thr): Changed to prevent thread + manager from "discard" a thread when a certain operation is not + supported by the operation system. Removed the mechanism that + preserves errno during "thread removal." We no longer remove + thread right after an error occured. + +Thu Nov 20 17:53:35 1997 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu> + + * examples/Shared_Malloc/test_multiple_mallocs.cpp (main): Make + sure make sure that the semaphores created by the program are + released as well as the storage files deleted. Thanks to Tom + Arbuckle <arbuckle@uran.informatik.uni-bonn.de> for reporting + this. + + * ace: Added a new version of config-osf1-3.2.h. Thanks to Dani + Flexer <danif@ivory-sw.com> for updating this. + +Thu Nov 20 18:22:24 1997 Steve Huston <shuston@riverace.com> + + * ace/README + ace/TLI.h + ace/TLI_Acceptor.h + ace/TLI_Connector.h + Changed from using hardcoded "/dev/tcp" as the XTI device name to + a new config-related define, ACE_TLI_TCP_DEVICE. If the config + doesn't set one, it defaults to "/dev/tcp". Thanks to Steve Coy + <stevec@magna.com.au> for zeroing in on this problem in HP-UX. + + ace/config-hpux-10.x.h: ACE_TLI_TCP_DEVICE is "/dev/inet_cots". + Note that XTI won't work 100% well on HP still - this is Riverace + problem ID P27. + + * netsvcs/lib/Server_Logging_Handler_T.h: Hardcoded to always use + ACE_SOCK_Stream (and friends) rather than ACE_TLI_Stream and friends. + XTI doesn't work real well on some platforms (particularly HP-UX + and AIX). When they're fixed, this can be undone (Riverace problem + ID P28). + + * examples/IPC_SAP/TLI_SAP/CPP-client.cpp: Changed 'char *host' to + 'const char *host' so it can be initialized from a const char string. + +Thu Nov 20 14:19:57 1997 Carlos O'Ryan <coryan@macarena.cs.wustl.edu> + + * tests/Priority_Reactor_Test.h: + * tests/Priority_Reactor_Test.cpp: + The test has a limited execution time now, and only reports a + warning if runs out of time. This may be due to some failed + connections, but it is hard to avoid that. On the other hand + the default time should be large enough, in our machines the + test only takes 14 seconds, so 60 seconds should be enough. + NOTE: this problem reveals a problem *only* in the test itself + not in ACE_Priority_Reactor. + +Thu Nov 20 11:29:51 1997 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/Timer_{Heap,List}_T.{h,cpp}: added + ACE_Timer_{Heap,List}::get_first () accessors. Thanks to + Stephen Henry <shenry@mdc.com> for this suggestion. + +Thu Nov 20 11:27:44 1997 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ACE version 4.3.54, released Thu Nov 20 11:27:44 1997. + +Thu Nov 20 10:45:08 1997 <irfan@TWOSTEP> + + * tests/MT_SOCK_Test.cpp: Uncommented socket close call. + + * ace/WFMO_Reactor.cpp (open): Open the notification handler + *after* the timer queue has been created. + + * ace/ACE.cpp (get_ip_interfaces): Changed rep() to fast_rep() to + prevent memory leak. + + * ace/Reactor.cpp (ACE_Reactor): Fixed error of not creating any + Reactors on UNIX. + +Thu Nov 20 08:36:54 1997 Nanbor Wang <nw1@merengue.cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/Thread_Manager.{h,cpp}: Added a dummy argument to internal + thread functions. Without them, MSVC wrongly optimizes codes + and the stack were all clobbered when entering these functions. + +Wed Nov 19 23:24:03 1997 <nw1@CHA-CHA> + + * ace/Reactor.cpp: Rearragned macros so we use Select_Reactor as + default if we don't have Winsock2. Irfan did it, not me. + +Wed Nov 19 22:11:20 1997 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ACE version 4.3.53, released Wed Nov 19 22:11:20 1997. + +Wed Nov 19 15:55:52 1997 Sumedh Mungee <sumedh@lindy.cs.wustl.edu> + + * config-netbsd.h: NetBSD 1.3alpha has a better MSYNC. Commented out + ACE_HAS_BROKEN_NETBSD_MSYNC + +Wed Nov 19 14:26:36 1997 Nanbor Wang <nw1@lindy.cs.wustl.edu> + + * stdcpp.h, OS.h: Changed ACE_CONFIG_H to ACE_USER_CONFIG_H. It + conflicts with the macro in various configuration files. + +Wed Nov 19 15:55:45 1997 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/config-sunos5.*.h: Replaced all uses of ACE_HAS_UNICODE with + ACE_HAS_XPG4_MULTIBYTE_CHAR. At this point, I think only NT has + the UNICODE macro now. Thanks to Steve Huston for validating + this. + + * STL/bstring.h: Added a special-case for BorlandC++. However, I + think this can be generalized for all compilers. Thanks to + Valik Solorzano Barboza <valik@xs4all.nl> for reporting this. + + * ace/OS: Fixed strpbrk() to handle the const char * and char * + cases of ANSI C++. Thanks to Valik Solorzano Barboza + <valik@xs4all.nl> for reporting this. + + * ace/OS.h: Added a special case for _MSC_VER since BC++ doesn't + have wchar.h! Thanks to Valik Solorzano Barboza + <valik@xs4all.nl> for reporting this. + +Wed Nov 19 13:43:33 1997 Darrell Brunsch <brunsch@cs.wustl.edu> + + * Merged the purify testing into run_tests. Just use + + "run_tests purify ..." + + to purify instead of running the tests. If you thought this + batch file looked bad before.... + +Wed Nov 19 12:17:50 1997 Nanbor Wang <nw1@merengue.cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/{OS,stdcpp}.h (ACE_CONFIG_H): Added this macro to protect + config.h from getting included multiple times. + + * ace/stdcpp.h: Reverted include OS.h back to config.h. + +Wed Nov 19 09:20:05 1997 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ACE version 4.3.52, released Wed Nov 19 09:20:05 1997. + +Wed Nov 19 07:54:44 1997 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/ACE.cpp (crc32): Reverted the COMPUTE macro back to its + original value. For some reason, the version given by Valik was + failing. + + * ace/SV_Semaphore_Complex.cpp (open): Make sure initialize the + sem_number_ data member, though this isn't actually used for + anything. + + * ace/ACE.cpp: Added a #ifdef for __unix since this is the only + case where we'll actually have the ifreq autoptr. Thanks to + Valik Solorzano Barboza <valik@xs4all.nl> for reporting this. + + * ace/Log_Record.cpp (print): Added a work around for a really + lame bug with BORLANDC. Thanks to Valik Solorzano Barboza + <valik@xs4all.nl> for reporting this. + +Wed Nov 19 04:22:38 1997 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ACE version 4.3.51, released Wed Nov 19 04:22:38 1997. + +Wed Nov 19 04:02:09 1997 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu> + + * include/makeinclude/rules.local.GNU (show_uninit): It seems + there was a missing '@' at the beginning of the line. Thanks to + Hans Rohnert for reporting this. + + * tests/Process_Strategy_Test.cpp (handle_input): Fixed Irfan's + code, which keeps breaking ACE ;-). + +Wed Nov 19 01:55:06 1997 <irfan@TWOSTEP> + + * ace/WFMO_Reactor.cpp (resume_handler_i, suspend_handler_i, + unbind_i): Since things don't happen immediately in the + WFMO_Reactor world, we must make sure that this request is not a + duplicate. If so we must ignore it. + + * ace/Asynch_Acceptor.cpp (open): Fixed addr type mismatch problem. + + * tests/UPIPE_SAP_Test.cpp (main): Make sure to close the socket + in ACE_UPIPE_Acceptor. + + * tests/SPIPE_Test.cpp (server): Make sure to close the socket in + ACE_SPIPE_Acceptor. + + * tests/SOCK_Test.cpp (spawn): Make sure to close the socket in + ACE_SOCK_Acceptor. + + * tests/Reactor_Notify_Test.cpp (Supplier_Task): Make sure to + close the pipe down. + + * tests/Process_Strategy_Test.cpp (handle_input): Fixed ACE_DEBUG + statement to pass the correct number of arguments. + + * tests/MT_SOCK_Test.cpp (spawn): Make sure to close the socket in + ACE_SOCK_Acceptor. + + * tests/Reactor_Exceptions_Test.cpp (main): Make sure to close the + socket in ACE_SOCK_Dgram. + + * tests/run_purify_tests.bat: Added "mkdir purify_results". + + * tests/run_tests.bat, run_purify_tests.bat: Changed explicit name + of bat file (e.g., run_tests, run_purify_tests) to %0. This + will allow the bat file to be used from other directories. + + * ace/config-win32-common.h: Removed extraneous define of + ACE_HAS_TEMPLATE_INSTANTIATION. + +Wed Nov 19 00:37:22 1997 <nw1@COYOTE> + + * ace/stdcpp.h: Changed to use "ace/OS.h" instead of using + "ace/config.h" directly to avoid redefinition of user defined + macros. + + * ace/Log_Msg.cpp (close): Disable Win32 to delete + ACE_Log_Msg::instance (). On Win32, this should be done by + ACE_TSS_Cleanup. + + * ace/OS.cpp (cleanup_tss): Enabled Win32 to call + ACE_Log_Msg::close. This is required to properly release + resourses held by ACE_Log_Msg_Manager. + +Tue Nov 18 19:28:36 1997 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/Select_Reactor.cpp (unbind), + ace/WFMO_Reactor.cpp (handle_signal): Fixed a large number of + bugs with non-portable "scope of the for loop counter"... + Thanks to Valik Solorzano Barboza <valik@xs4all.nl> for + reporting this. + + * ace/Thread_Manager: Added == and != operators for + ACE_Thread_Descriptor to fix things with BORLANDC's template + mechanism. Thanks to Valik Solorzano Barboza <valik@xs4all.nl> + for reporting this. + + * ace/Select_Reactor: Added == and != operators for + ACE_Event_Tuple to fix things with BORLANDC's template + mechanism. Thanks to Valik Solorzano Barboza <valik@xs4all.nl> + for reporting this. + + * ace/OS.i (tempnam): Fixed a typo -- WIN32 should be ACE_WIN32. + Thanks to Valik Solorzano Barboza <valik@xs4all.nl> for + reporting this. + + * ace/OS.h: Reordered the ACE_SEH_* macros so they work correctly + with BORLANDC. Thanks to Valik Solorzano Barboza + <valik@xs4all.nl> for reporting this. + + * ace/OS: Added operator== and operator!= for ACE_Cleanup_Info so + that it will work correctly with BORLANDC's template mechanism. + Thanks to Valik Solorzano Barboza <valik@xs4all.nl> for + reporting this. + + * ace/config-win32-common.h: Added + ACE_HAS_EXPLICIT_TEMPLATE_INSTANTIATION for BORLANDC. Thanks to + Valik Solorzano Barboza <valik@xs4all.nl> for reporting this. + + * ace/Filecache.cpp: Fixed a bug with BORLANDC. Thanks to Valik + Solorzano Barboza <valik@xs4all.nl> for reporting this. + + * ace/ACE.cpp (crc32): Added some parens to the COMPUTE macro to + make it easier to grok. Thanks to Valik Solorzano Barboza + <valik@xs4all.nl> for reporting this. + +Tue Nov 18 16:27:32 1997 <irfan@TWOSTEP> + + * ace/Log_Msg.cpp (log): Added a %D option to Log_Msg for + "month/day/year hour:minute:second:microsecond". Thanks to John + Mulhern <9107@MN3.LAWSON.lawson.com> for suggesting this. + + * ace/config-win32-common.h: If __ACE_INLINE__ is defined to be 0, + we will undefine it. + +Tue Nov 18 15:59:37 1997 Steve Huston <shuston@riverace.com> + + * ace/IOStream.cpp: In underflow() and overflow(), use base() to + check for buffer in use in every case - not just without + ACE_HAS_STANDARD_CPP_LIBRARY==1. Thanks to James CE Johnson + (jcej@lads.com) for this fix. + + * tests/MT_SOCK_Test.cpp: Allow the test to run even if not all of + the proceses can be forked. + +Tue Nov 18 15:27:37 1997 Nanbor Wang <nw1@merengue.cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/Timer_Queue_Adapters.cpp: Reordered include files. Thanks + to Torbjorn Lindgren <tl@funcom.no> for noticing the problem. + +Tue Nov 18 11:40:18 1997 Steve Huston <shuston@riverace.com> + + * ace/IOStream.(cpp h): Added: &&(ACE_HAS_STANDARD_CPP_LIBRARY != 0) + to the #if defined (ACE_HAS_STANDARD_CPP_LIBRARY) lines to only use + the new iostreams things if that's been selected by the config file. + In ACE_Streambuf::overflow(), changed: + if (!eback()) to if (!pbase()) + +Tue Nov 18 08:23:53 1997 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu> + + * tests/Thread_Pool_Test.cpp (open): Moved the activate() method + from the Thread_Pool constructor to the open() hook since the + Thread_Pool class invoked ACE_Task::activate, indirectly invokes + Thread_Pool::svc. There existed a miniscule probability this + code would have crashed since on extremely broken C++ compilers + the virtual member function Thread_Pool::svc may not correctly + initialized in Thread_Pool constructor (i.e., it might point to + ACE_Task_Base::svc() at this point). The chance of this + happening is incredibly remote, but it's still a good ideal to + put the call in the open() method so we can check the return + value in the application. Thanks to Arturo for pointing this + out. + +Tue Nov 18 05:40:53 1997 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/OS.cpp (inet_aton): on Chorus only, use the native + ::inet_aton (). Thanks to Wei for pointing this out. + + * ace/OS.cpp (gethostby{addr,name}): on VxWorks only, don't htonl + the input address because it already should be in network byte + order. Store the output address in network byte order. Thanks + to Wei for noticing this error. + + * include/makeinclude/wrapper_macros.GNU: add -DACE_PURIFY to + CFLAGS if purify make flag is set, and -DACE_QUANTIFY if + quantify is set. Thanks to Chris Cleeland for this suggestion. + + * ace/Memory_Pool.cpp (ACE_Shared_Memory_Pool): reordered + initializers to match declaration order. + + * etc/purify.solaris2: added suppression of pthread_setcanceltype + BSW. + +Tue Nov 18 00:11:26 1997 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ACE version 4.3.50, released Tue Nov 18 00:11:26 1997. + +Mon Nov 17 22:35:22 1997 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu> + + * examples/Shared_Malloc/test_malloc.cpp: Added some additional + calls to Malloc::instance ()->remove () to cleanup all the + semaphore locks. Thanks to Tom Arbuckle + <arbuckle@uran.informatik.uni-bonn.de> for reporting this. + + * ace/Memory_Pool.cpp (init_acquire): Fixed a problem caused by + failing to initialize the minimum_bytes_ field in the + ACE_Shared_Memory_Pool class. Thanks to Tom Arbuckle + <arbuckle@uran.informatik.uni-bonn.de> for reporting this. + + * examples/Shared_Malloc/test_malloc.cpp: Updated the Shared + Malloc test program to use the Singleton Thread Manager. + +Mon Nov 17 18:09:06 1997 <nw1@CUECA> + + * All eight different configurations of ACE passed all tests on + our Alpha/NT. + +Mon Nov 17 15:37:52 1997 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/INET_Addr.cpp (get_host_name): on VxWorks only, moved + ::hostGetByAddr code block to _after_ the check for the + address being INADDR_ANY. Without that check, get_host_name () + never returns the caller's own hostname. + + * netsvcs/lib/Makefile: the first line of the Local Target + (Server_Logging_Handler.*) override mysteriously disappeared. + +Mon Nov 17 02:09:57 1997 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ACE version 4.3.49, released Mon Nov 17 02:09:57 1997. + +Mon Nov 17 02:03:21 1997 Douglas C.

Schmidt <schmidt@merengue.cs.wustl.edu> + + * tests/SOCK_Connector_Test.cpp (fail_no_listener_nonblocking): + Changed the line + + status = con.complete (sock); + + to + + if (sock.get_handle () != ACE_INVALID_HANDLE) + status = con.complete (sock); + + The change worksaround a core dump due the the following + conditions: + + - the find_another_host function in SOCK_Connector_Test comes + up with the entry for an NT machine. + + - the ACE_OS::connect call at line 64 of SOCK_Connector.cpp + "successfully" fails returning -1 but in this case + errno is set to ECONNREFUSED. + + - Since errno is not EINPROGRESS or EWOULDBLOCK the + ACE_SOCK_Stream 'new_stream' close member function is called + which, besides closing the "handle", also sets it to + ACE_INVALID_HANDLE. + + - Since the errno was ECONNREFUSED the 'if' test at line 97 of + SOCK_Connector_Test.cpp is true and the next statement + + status = con.complete (sock); + + is called causing a core dump since sock.get_handle() is + ACE_INVALID_HANDLE (-1 on Solaris). + + Thanks to Jack Erickson <jack@pinion.com> for reporting this. + + * ace/OS: Cast away the constness of the parameters to _tempnam() + for Borland C++.

This compiler + bug is HP case SR5003396259 for future reference. + + * ace/config-hpux-10.x-hpc++.h: Added ACE_HAS_ANSI_CASTS; removed + ACE_HAS_HPUX_ACC_BROKEN_TEMPLATE_DESTRUCTOR (both for aC++ only). + + * ace/README: Removed ACE_HAS_HPUX_ACC_BROKEN_TEMPLATE_DESTRUCTOR, as + it is no longer used. + +Thu Nov 13 16:51:40 1997 <nw1@CHA-CHA> + + * ace/OS.h: Added two new macros ACE_FACTORY_DECLARE and + ACE_FACTORY_DEFINE. Changed definitions of + ACE_SVC_FACTORY_DECLARE AND ACE_SVC_FACTORY_DEFINE to use these + two macros. Refer to changes of the ACE_Export related macros + below, you can now declare/define your service factories as, + + ACE_FACTORY_DECLARE (FOOBAR, fac_class); + ACE_FACTORY_DEFINE (FOOBAR, fac_class); + + This will ensure they get define properly and proper decoration + will be added. + +Thu Nov 13 16:52:31 1997 Nanbor Wang <nw1@merengue.cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/Thread_Manager.cpp: Removed all ! defined + (ACE_HAS_FSU_PTHREAD). Thanks to ARTURO MONTES + <mitosys@colomsat.net.co> for reporting this. + + * ace/config-gcc-2.7.2.h: Added ACE_HAS_TEMPLATE_SPECIALIZATION. + Thanks to ARTURO MONTES <mitosys@colomsat.net.co> for reporting + this. + + * ace/config-fsu-pthread.h: added ACE_LACKS_THREAD_PROCESS_SCOPING. + Thanks to ARTURO MONTES <mitosys@colomsat.net.co> for reporting + this. + + * ace/OS.h: Separate definition of proper export flag for + platforms from setting these flags for building/not building + DLL. I keep ACE_Export and ACE_Svc_Export to remain backward + compatibality but now, they are defined using the new "common" + definition. This changes is made in hope that it will simplify + codes generated by TAO_IDL compiler. + + Several new directives are added to these file. These common + directives will be set to proper values (macros) according to + the platform we use. They are: + + ACE_Proper_Export_Flag + ACE_Proper_Import_Flag + ACE_EXPORT_SINGLETON_DECLATATION(T) + ACE_IMPORT_SINGLETON_DECLARATION(T) + ACE_PROPER_SINGLETON_INSTANTIATION(T) + + I use them to define ACE_Export and ACE_Svc_Export. I hope it + is easier to define your own export decoration flag now. Here + is an example. Say you want to define an export flag for your + DLL file : foobar.dll. First, you need to add the following to + a common header file: + + // Here are definition for FOO_BAR library. + #if defined (FOOBAR_HAS_DLL) && (FOOBAR_HAS_DLL == 1) + # if defined (FOOBAR_BUILD_DLL) + # define FOOBAR_Export ACE_Proper_Export_Flag + # define FOOBAR_SINGLETON_DECLARATION(T) ACE_EXPORT_SINGLETON_DECLARATION (T) + # define FOOBAR_SINGLETON_INSTANTIATION(T) ACE_PROPER_SINGLETON_INSTANTIATION (T) + # else + # define FOOBAR_Export ACE_Proper_Import_Flag + # define FOOBAR_SINGLETON_DECLARATION(T) ACE_IMPORT_SINGLETON_DECLARATION (T) + # define FOOBAR_SINGLETON_INSTANTIATION(T) + # endif /* FOOBAR_BUILD_DLL */ + #else /* ! FOOBAR_HAS_DLL */ + # define FOOBAR_Export + # define FOOBAR_SINGLETON_DECLARATION(T) + # define FOOBAR_SINGLETON_INSTANTIATION(T) + #endif /* FOOBAR_HAS_DLL */ + + Be sure to include "ace/OS.h" before these definitions so that + the macros they use will be properly initialized. After you've + done this, on Win32, define "FOOBAR_HAS_DLL=1" if you want to + build DLL, define it as "FOOBAR_HAS_DLL=0" if you want to build + static library. In your library project file, you must define + the directives FOOBAR_BUILD_DLL and decorate classes/objects you + want to export with FOOBAR_Export so that they can be declared + automatically according whether you are building/linking with + static library or dynamic library. + +Thu Nov 13 05:47:42 1997 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/Thread_Manager.cpp: added ACE_TSS_Singleton<ACE_Dynamic, + ACE_Null_Mutex> instantiation, for the recent Svc_Handler + change. + + * ace/Object_Manager.h (default_mask): moved out of ACE_MT_SAFE + protection. + + * ace/OS.{h,i},config-vxworks-ghs-1.8.h,README (strlen,strcpy): + protect declarations of wchar versions with + ACE_HAS_WCHAR_TYPEDEFS_CHAR.

This is the default signal mask employed + by ACE_Sig_Set. Moving the object into the OM saves cycles b/c we + only construct it once and just re-use every time. + + * ace/Handle_Set.cpp: Added two new macros--ACE_DIV_BY_WORDSIZE and + ACE_MULT_BY_WORDSIZE--which either divide or multiply the argument + by ACE_Handle_Set::WORDSIZE. The manner in which this is + accomplished is governed by the #define + ACE_USE_SHIFT_FOR_EFFICIENCY--when defined, ACE tries to use + shifts to implement multiplication and division rather than actual + multiply and divide operations. Currently this is disabled. + +Wed Nov 12 19:13:05 1997 <irfan@TWOSTEP> + + * ace/Svc_Handler: Changed hand written tss singleton to + ACE_TSS_Singleton.

Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/OS.cpp (inet_aton): declare local ip_addr as an ACE_UINT32 + instead of a long. Real programmers have 64-bit longs. + + * ace/INET_Addr.cpp (get_host_name): added ACE_UNUSED_ARG (len); + for VxWorks only. + +Tue Nov 11 13:19:46 1997 Torbjorn Lindgren <tl@funcom.com> + + * include/makeinclude/rules.local.GNU: Fixed so that the ACE + makefiles doesn't create circular symlinks (happens if + something fails when building libACE.* with "make -k", or when + doing parallel builds). It's now possible to do parallel + builds of libACE.* without having to clean up a mess afterwards. + + * include/makeinclude/platform_irix6.x-sgic++.GNU: Removed + .so build with links instead (ace/apps/examples/tests and my own + programs all work well with this, and the manual seems to suggest + that it hasn't ever been necessary on this platform) + + * ace/config-irix6.x-sgic++-nothreads.h: Added + ACE_HAS_XPG4_MULTIBYTE_CHAR for SGI IRIX 6.[2-5]. + +Tue Nov 11 04:50:06 1997 Nanbor Wang <nw1@merengue.cs.wustl.edu> + + * examples/Reactor/Multicast/server.cpp (handle_timeout): Fixed a + typo.

This is obviously incorrect as the mapping + address in already occupied by the first Name_Handler. + Therefore, the Naming_Context was changed into a Singleton + accessable by all Name_Handlers. + + * ace/WFMO_Reactor.cpp (handle_additions && handle_deletions): + Changed code to make sure that we should not make the upcall + until all the internal data structures have been updated. This + is to protect against upcalls that try to deregister again. + +Tue Nov 11 01:28:50 1997 Douglas C.

Schmidt <schmidt@macarena.cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/Thread_Manager.cpp: Added a missing '>' for one of the + template specializations.

Thanks to Steve Coy + <stevec@magna.com.au> for pointing out that the default + parameter const ACE_Addr &local_sap = ACE_Addr::sap_any will + cause a copy of sap_any to be made and passed to the method, + invalidating the memory address comparison. + + The following files were effected: + + Asynch_Acceptor.cpp + SOCK_Acceptor.cpp + SOCK_CODgram.cpp + SOCK_Dgram.cpp + TLI_Acceptor.cpp + TLI_Connector.cpp + + * ace/Addr.cpp: Made sure that the type and size of + ACE_Addr::sap_any does not match the type and size of any other + Addr type. This is necessary for local_addr==ACE_Addr::sap_any + to return 0 when local_addr is anything other than + ACE_Addr::sap_any. + + * ace/Synch_T.h: Fixed all the ACE_SYNCH_* defines. Thanks to + Matthias Kerkhoff <make@cs.tu-berlin.de> for pointing the + problems. + +Thu Nov 06 18:30:42 1997 Steve Huston <shuston@riverace.com> + + * ace/Addr.(h i), DEV_Addr.(h i), FILE_Addr.(h i), INET_Addr.(h + cpp), SPIPE_Addr.(h i), UNIX_Addr.(h i): Changed the operators + == and != to be non-virtual, and to accept the 'sap' argument as + its own type (not ACE_Addr for all of them). The + implementations of the operators compare type-specific data + without having to check the inherited type member. Thanks to + Steve Coy <stevec@magna.com.au> and Irfan and Nanbor for a huge + amount of work on these changes. *** NOTE - there is still some + SOCK_Connector problems related to these changes on HP-UX.

Schmidt <schmidt@macarena.cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/Service_Repository.cpp (close): Looking in the + Service_Repository while shutting it down does really bad + things. Some careful changes to the loop in + Service_Repository::close() fixed this. Thanks to Eric + C. Newton <ecn@smart.net> for reporting this. + + * Added new support for SCO UNIX with no threads. Thanks to + Arturo Montes <mitosys@colomsat.net.co> for reporting this. + +Wed Nov 05 20:31:36 1997 <irfan@TWOSTEP> + + * ace/Connector.cpp (close): Added an explicit close() method for + the Strategy_Connector.

We can no longer + remove thread descriptors directly from <thr_list_> because that + would clobber the integrity of the double-linked list. Changed + the data type of <terminated_thr_queue_> from + ACE_Unbounded_Queue<ACE_Thread_Descriptor> to + ACE_Unbounded_Queue<ACE_Descriptor*> to reduce the codes + generated. + + * ace/Thread_Manager.cpp: Reordered several thread operations so they + won't remove thread descriptor directly while traversing the + <thr_list_>. Removed #ifdef <VXWORKS> from template + instantiation section because now VxWorks needs it too. + + * ace/Container.{h,cpp}: Added more check on validities of passed in + node to ACE_Double_Linked_List::remove_element. Also changed + the function to reset a node's <prev_> and <next_> to prevent + double removal of a node, which messes up the list structure. + + * ace/ace_{dll,lib}.dsp: Excluded Acceptor.cpp from make + explicitly.

Go figure! + + * TAO/tests/IDL_Cubit/Makefile: Enhanced the "realclean" target to + remove the generated IDL stubs and skeletons. + + * ace/OS.cpp (ace_sysconf_dump): Made a minor change to OS.cpp + to fix some typos.

Thus + changing the bucket chains into doubly linked lists. Because of + this, it was necessary to change the way the list was being + managed. Sentinels were created for each bucket. + + This also changed (a) the way the iterators worked, (b) made it + easy to delete entries when you have one (this scheme allows the + entries to be easily used as ACTs). + + - New methods (bind, trybind, rebind, find): These methods allow + the users to get access to ACE_Hash_Map_Entry of the node in + question. This allows the user to treat the entry as an ACT and + get access to the key (in case the user is interested in + changing the key). These methods are only valid since the + implementation of Hash_Map_Manager uses linked lists where nodes + are never copied. These methods cannot be added to Map_Manager + since it uses an array of nodes, where the your data may get + copied to another node when the size of the Map_Manager changes. + + * ace/Strategies (ACE_Connection_Recycling_Strategy): Added a new + abstract strategy for recycling connections. + + * ace/Strategies_T: + + - ACE_Cached_Connect_Strategy: ACE_Cached_Connect_Strategy now + implements the ACE_Connection_Recycling_Strategy interface. + This allows Svc_Handlers to cache themselves with + ACE_Cached_Connect_Strategy when they become idle. It also + allows them to purge themselves from the connection cache when + the Svc_Handlers close down. + + Also added ~ACE_Cached_Connect_Strategy that will cleanup up the + connection cache. + + - ACE_Hash_Addr: ACE_Hash_Addr is the key for the hash map used by + ACE_Cached_Connect_Strategy. Previously it kept the Svc_Handler + pointer in the key in order to find out if it was busy or not. + Now the <in_use> flag has been moved from the Svc_Handler into + the key. The also saves the Hash_Addr from requiring + Svc_Handler as a template parameter. + + Also updated ACE_Hash_Addr::operator== such that if the + Svc_Handler is busy, it does not bother to check compare the + addresses but simply returns false. + + * ace/Svc_Handler.cpp: Added the ability for a Svc_Handler to + recycle itself. idle() can be called when the Svc_Handler is + done serving a particular connection and can how be recycled. + The Svc_Handler now also has a pointer to a recycler that is + responsible for managing the connections. The recycler is + usually a Cached_Connector. + + * ace/Filecache.cpp (ACE_Hash_Map_Entry): Added a new constructor + specialization as the ACE_Hash_Map_Entry now has two + constructors. + + * tests/Hash_Map_Manager_Test.cpp (ACE_Hash_Map_Entry): Added a + new constructor specialization as the ACE_Hash_Map_Entry now has + two constructors. + + * tests/Reactor_Exceptions_Test.cpp (class My_Reactor): Added the + other handle_events method. Thanks to Stephen Coy + (coys@mail.ns.wsa.com.au) for pointing this out. + + * ace/Strategies_T.cpp (hash_i): This default routine is no good. + It uses a complicated scheme that calculate a hash value. + Unfortunately, there is no guarantee that this hash algorithm + will produce the same hash value for the same address. + Therefore, it is better just to return a consistent hash value + rather than an erroneous one. I have choosen 0 of the return + value. Even though this will cause all the entries to be hashed + to the 0 bucket, atleast they will be found. Users should + override this to provide better hashing. + + (compare_i): Memcmp is not the correct default action. + !(b1==b2) is the correct comparison, though this will assume + that the addresses will have a comparison operation. + + * ace/Mem_Map.cpp (close and close_handle): close() is doing too + much.

With that assumption, we know that + there is only one (main) thread in the program prior to the + Object_Manager instance being constructed. At that time, + locking is not needed. The ACE_{TSS_}Singleton::instance () + methods rely on the state of the Object_Manager: if it has + not been constructed yet, then they don't guard allocation + of their singleton instance. + + The Object_Manager constructs four locks (of types ACE_Null_Mutex, + ACE_Thread_Mutex, ACE_Recursive_Thread_Mutex, and + ACE_RW_Thread_Mutex) for use only by ACE_Singleton classes. + After the Object_Manager has been constructed, ACE_{TSS_}Singleton + instantiations use one of those locks to guard their allocation of + a new instance, via double-checked locking. + + This change has one impact, then: + ACE_{TSS_}Singleton users are limited to the following types + for their ACE_LOCK instantiation parameters: ACE_Null_Mutex, + ACE_Thread_Mutex, ACE_Recursive_Thread_Mutex, and + ACE_RW_Thread_Mutex. If another type is needed, it can be + easily added to the ACE_Object_Manager: another overloaded + get_singleton_lock () function and preallocated lock would + have to be added. + + As noted in Singleton.h, the best types of ACE_LOCKs to use + for instantiating ACE_Singleton are ACE_Recursive_Thread_Mutex + and ACE_Null_Mutex. + + In addition to the above change, I made these two other + changes: + 1) ACE_Static_Object_Lock::instance (): dynamically allocate + a lock if the Object_Manager has not been constructed yet. + This approach replaces the static lock that was necessary + to allow the static services to be constructed. + + 2) Consolidated the singleton_ access in ACE_TSS_Singleton + via a singleton_i () internal accessor function.

This is essentially for compatibility with UNIX + programs. UNIX does not have a CLOSE_MASK and the notification + of the closing of a socket is implicit in the socket becoming + read ready. Therefore when you register for + ACE_Event_Handler::READ_MASK with WFMO_Reactor, you will + register for FD_READ and FD_CLOSE. When FD_CLOSE is triggered, + handle_input() will be called on the Event_Handler. As on UNIX, + read() will return 0 and the programmer will be able to tell + that the socket has actually closed down. + + Arguably, this is lame for Win32 programmers as they have the + explicit close notification, but portability and existing code + base wins in this case. + + One other change. When an event_handler returns -1 from the + callback, unbind() is called with ALL_EVENTS_MASK rather than + the NULL_MASK. + + The upcall routine still needs to threat the two masks + separately. (FD_CLOSE | FD_READ) will not work as both maybe + simultaneously enabled. Therefore handle_input() maybe be called + twice (once for FD_READ and once for FD_CLOSE) unless the user + returns -1 from the first callback. + + * ace/Event_Handler: Removed the CLOSE_MASK. + + * examples/Logger/simple-server/Logging_Handler.cpp: Minor fixes. + + * examples/Logger/Acceptor-server/server_loggerd.cpp: Minor + changes.

Each + of them takes one argument which is the ACE_Singleton class. + All these craps are needed because MSVCs very kindly instantiate + the template codes for you. This ends up producing two + ACE_Singleton objects, one in DLL and one in user program. What + these macros do is to supress the template code instantiation in + user program and force compilers to instantiate these codes in + DLL. On other platforms, these macros simply expand to empty + strings. Here is a simple use case. Say we have a class + called <foobar> which we want to make it a singleton using + ACE_Singleton template in our own DLL. In file <foobar.h>, add + a line like this, + + ACE_SVC_SINGLETON_DECLARATION (ACE_Singleton<foobar>); + + and it will be expanded to suitabe code to export the class or + supress another template instantiation outside DLL depending on + whether ACE_BUILD_SVC_DLL is defined or not. In file + <foobar.cpp>, add a line, + + ACE_SVC_SINGLETON_INSTANTIATION (ACE_Singleton<foobar>); + + at the end of the file to instantiate the template object in + DLL. Notice that there is a bug in MSVC 4.2 and you'll have to + write up a DEF file to export the template interface + explicitly. + + These macros should be integrated with the case when + ACE_HAS_EXPLICIT_TEMPLATE_INSTANTIATION but because of the VC + 4.2's bug, it will cause too much trouble to export all these + symbols for external access.

Schmidt <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/config-hpux-10.x.h: Added #define ACE_DEFAULT_BASE_ADDR + ((char *) 0x80000000) so that the various mmap() tests + will work on HP/UX.

With this change, we can cache the thread + descriptor entries in TSS area. Then, when accessing thread + descriptor from a spawned thread's context, we don't have to + search thru the whole list in order to find the corresponding + thread descriptor. Double-linked list and caching also make + adding/removing thread descriptor entries very fast. At this + moment, we need to do a linear search when we try to access the + cached pointer the first time. This overhead is expected to + removed shortly. The will be some memory leaks at this moment + because I haven't implemented the code to clean up the list when + a thread manager gets deleted. Will fix it soon. + + * Log_Msg.{h,cpp}: Removed thr_state methods, variable, and thr_id + methods and variable and replace them with thr_desc which cache + the pointer to the thread descriptor structure. + + * Containers.*: Added two new template classes + ACE_Double_Linked_List and ACE_Double_Linked_List_Iterator. + These two classes implement the very fundamental data structure + of double-linked list. Although this is not actually a + container class, I couldn't find a better place to put these + classes. + + * ace/Filecache.* + * ace/FIFO.* + * ace/FIFO_Send.* + * ace/FIFO_Recv.* + * ace/FIFO_Send_Msg.* + * ace/FIFO_Recv_Msg.* + * ace/Memory_Pool.* (ACE_MMAP_Memory_Pool_Options, + ACE_MMAP_Memory_Pool): Added one member variable to these class + so users can specify the LPSECURITY_ATTRIBUTES object they want + to use with them. + (map_file, init_inquire): Pass the security attribute to + underlying memory map object. + + * ace/Mem_Map.* (ACE_Mem_Map, map, open, map_it): Added a new + function parameter LPSECURITY_ATTRIBUTES.

Schmidt <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu> + + * examples/Makefile: Removed the Timer_Queue directory from the + Makefile until Sergio has fixed all the examples for GCC. + +Sun Oct 19 21:15:10 1997 Sergio Flores <sergio@polka.cs.wustl.edu> + + * examples/Timer_Queue: Added a new testing framework for + various types of ACE_Time_Queue usecases, e.g., threaded, + reactive, and asynchronous. + The new classes are: + <Timer_Queue_Test_Driver> which factors out the common code for + different type of Timer queue implementations, for example the parsing, + the input reading, and leaves the implementation of display_menu() for + example, to subclasses. + <Async_Timer_Queue_Test_Driver> the asynchronous version of the timer + queue, uses signals. + <Reactor_Timer_Queue_Test_Driver> implements the reactive timer queue + test driver using <ACE_Reactor> + <Thread_Timer_Queue_Test_Driver> the threaded implementation of the + timer queue. + <Command> this class is used to specify operations on the timer queue + independently of their implementation. Thsi allows different + implementations of the timer queue to have different ways of + doing the operations without the base class having to know that. + See the Command pattern. + Added some helper functions into the <Input_Task> class. + + +Sun Oct 19 18:07:31 1997 Douglas C.

Thanks to Matthias for suggesting this. + + * ace/Svc_Handler.{h,cpp},Object_Manager.{h,cpp}: moved + ace_svc_handler_lock_ to Object_Manager. This lock was + created once per Svc_Handler instantiation. It has been + replaced by a single lock for all instantiations.

To support this, added another + enum, ACE_EXCL = IPC_EXCL, to the class header. + Also, changed the ACE_SV_Semaphore_Simple::open( key_t, ... ) + method to use + + if (ACE_BIT_ENABLED (flags, IPC_CREAT)) + + rather than + + if (flags == IPC_CREAT) + + Thanks to Michael McKnight <mcknight@signalsoftcorp.com> for + reporting this. + + * ace: Replaced all uses of the template param LOCK with ACE_LOCK + to avoid conflicts with some systems that have a macro named + LOCK. + + * ace/IOStream_T.h: Added ACE_LACKS_ACE_IOSTREAM to the + IOStream_T.* files.

The set method + is protected and should be used with care, specially while + changing the implementation class midway through an + application. Also both the methods are virtual, and user can + subclass to change their behavior. The internal code of the + reactor also changed to now use these methods exclusively rather + than the the raw data variables. + + * ace/Acceptor.cpp (handle_input): When using the WFMO_Reactor, we + need to reset the event association for the newly created + handle. This is because the newly created handle will inherit + the properties of the listen handle, including its event + associations. Therefore two changes were made: + + - A new directive (flag) was added to all the acceptors + (LSOCK_Acceptor, SOCK_Acceptor, SPIPE_Acceptor, TLI_Acceptor, + and UPIPE_Acceptor) to reset the event associations of the + newly created handle. Currently only the SOCK_Acceptor pays + attentions to this directive, others just ignore it. This flag + had to be added to all the acceptors for interface + compatibility and also to make sure that the Acceptor template + code works correctly. + + - A dynamic_cast was necessary to determine at run-time which + implementation of the Reactor we are using. But because this + code is limited to Win32, there should be no problems doing + the dynamic_cast. + + The same thing as above needed to be done to: + + - ACE_Accept_Strategy::accept_svc_handler (ace/Strategies_T.cpp) + + - ACE_Service_Manager::handle_input (ace/Service_Manager.cpp) + + - LOCK_SOCK_Acceptor::accept (apps/JAWS/server/HTTP_Server_T.h) + + - Logging_Acceptor.cpp::handle_input (examples/Logger/simple-server/Logging_Acceptor.cpp) + + - Network_Listener::handle_input (examples/Reactor/ReactorEx/test_network_events.cpp) + + - Handle_R_Stream::handle_input (examples/Service_Configurator/IPC-tests/server/Handle_R_Stream.i) + +Sat Sep 27 20:03:29 1997 Carlos O'Ryan <coryan@macarena.cs.wustl.edu> + + * include/makeinclude/platform_sunos5_sunc++_orbix.GNU: + Activated exceptions by default too, since they are used by + Orbix anyway. + + * include/makeinclude/platform_sunos5_sunc++.GNU: + Some libraries were missing and the locations were not + completely accurate. + + * ace/config-sunos5.5-sunc++-4.x-orbix.h: + I let the MT Orbix as the default, since that is the + configuration here and that was implicit in the platform*.GNU + files. + + * include/makeinclude/wrapper_macros.GNU: + Added flags to the IDL compiler to emit support for both + CORBA::Any (-A) and the BOAImpl (-B) approach for the server + side implementations. + + * ace/CORBA_Handler.cpp: + The full definition for Thread_Manager was missing, I added an + include for it. + +Sat Sep 27 07:59:18 1997 David L.

This allows the + ACE make system to support the "optimize" flag. It operates + similar to the "debug" flag, i.e., you can set "optimize=1" + or "optimize=0" in your platform_macros.GNU file to enable + or disable optimization. You can use the same syntax to + get the same effect from the "make" command line, e.g., + "make optimize=1 debug=0". + + I added optimize=1 to platform_*.GNU files that had -O, etc., + in their C[C]FLAGS. Therefore, there should be no net effect + from this change on any platform. + + * include/makeinclude/wrapper_macros.GNU: + I _removed_ the disabling of "debug" when "optimize=1" is + enabled. This _will_ have a net effect: if you were relying + on "debug" to be disabled when you enabled "optimize=1", + you'll be surprised. The change supports platforms that + allow "debug" and "optimize" simultaneously. + + Because I had added the disabling of "debug" recently, + and because "optimize=1" wasn't supported well, if at all, + I'd be suprised if any is actually affected by this change. + +Sat Sep 20 11:47:14 1997 Carlos O'Ryan <coryan@macarena.cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/Timer_Queue_T.cpp: + Changed the return type to <int>, to match its declaration.

Instead of + keeping the "this" pointer of the object in question, we are now + simply keeping a flag that indicates whether the object was + dynamically created. The trick to this approach is to make sure + to reset the flag in the constructor. The "this" pointer + approach was broken when used with multiple inheritance, because + of "shearing" of the "this" pointer to get to the base + Svc_Handler class. + +Thu Sep 18 01:12:36 1997 Douglas C.

The #include + appears to be necessary with Digital Unix. But, it causes + inline functions warnings with g++, both with inlining + enabled and disabled. Circular #includes are evil :-) + + * ace/Select_Reactor.h: removed "," at end of DEFAULT_SIZE + enum definition. + + * ace/Select_Reactor.i (register_handler): added ACE_UNUSED_ARGS. + + * ace/Select_Reactor.i: moved ACE_Select_Reactor::size () after + ACE_Select_Reactor_Handler_Repository::size () to prevent use + before definition. + + * ace/Select_Reactor.cpp: added template instantiation. + + * ace/Svc_Conf_y.cpp: commented out unused args and wrapped + assignments in "if" conditionals to avoid g++ warnings. + + * ace/Token_Manager.h: inserting missing "public" access control + specifier for ACE_Cleanup. + + * ace/OS.{h,cpp} (gethrtime, Linux only): inlined and added Alpha + support. + + * ace/config-linux*.h: only define ACE_HAS_PENTIUM if i386 is defined. + +Sun Sep 14 10:35:57 1997 <irfan@TWOSTEP> + + * ace/Reactor: The Reactor classes (ACE_Reactor and ACE_ReactorEx) + have changed. The motivation for this change was to allow users + to program abstractly and use the most efficient implementation + available on their platform. At the same time, we wanted to + make the changes required by the users kept to a minimal. + + Here is a layout of the new Reactor hierarchy in ACE (an example + of the GOF Bridge Pattern). Thanks to Thomas Jordan + (Thomas_Jordan@deluxedata.com) for suggesting this new design. + + + Reactor -----> Reactor_Impl + ^ + | + -------------------- + ^ ^ + | | + Select_Reactor WFMO_Reactor + + Reactor: + + The Reactor class now becomes an interface class that contains + a pointer to an implementation class. All methods of the + Reactor class forward all calls to the appropriate + implementation class. Users can pass in their own + implementation class. If an implementation class is not + supplied at creation time, the following default rules apply: + + On non-Win32 platforms: An instance of the Select_Reactor + class will be created and used as the implementation. + + On Win32 platforms: An instance of the WFMO_Reactor class will + be created and used as the implementation. This default + behavior can be overwritten at compile-time by setting the + ACE_USE_SELECT_REACTOR_FOR_REACTOR_IMPL flag. In this case, an + instance of the Select_Reactor class will be created and used + as the implementation. + + Reactor_Impl: + + Reactor_Impl is an abstract class (i.e., the Bridge). + Select_Reactor and WFMO_Reactor inherit from this class. + + Select_Reactor: + + Previously known as the Reactor class. This class implements + the Reactor_Impl interface by using the select() system + call. This implementation is available on all platforms + (including Win32). + + WFMO_Reactor: + + WFMO (Wait For Multiple Objects) Reactor, previously known as + the ReactorEx class. This class implements the Reactor_Impl + interface by using the WaitForMultipleObjects() system call. + This implementation is currently only available on Win32 + platforms. + + Code changes for users: + + The higher authorities of ACE have decided that ReactorEx was + a "goofy" name and made little sense in the new hierarchy. + Therefore users using the old ReactorEx will have to change + over to start using the Reactor class (and make sure that the + implementation class being used is WFMO_Reactor). + + Also users that have extended Reactor or ReactorEx must + now subclass from Select_Reactor or WFMO_Reactor, + respectively. + + * ace/ReactorEx: + + The ReactorEx interface has been extended to be identical to the + Reactor interface. Some of these new operations will not be + supported in this version. However, we will have interface + compatability at this point. This allows the creation of the new + Reactor hierarchy in ACE. + + Removed all static (singleton) methods from ReactorEx. These are + not necessary anymore since ReactorEx will become an + implementation class. Reactor will take over this functionality. + + Changed methods names from resume_all to resume_handlers and + suspend_all to suspend_handlers. This increases the similarity + between ReactorEx and Reactor. + + Add a lock_adapter so that we can return an ACE_Lock form of our + internal lock. + + Added signal handling capabilities to ReactorEx. + + Added handler, requeue_position, mask_ops, and ready_ops + operations. However, they are not supported in this + version. They are mostly here for interface compatibility with + Reactor. + + Added a size() accessor that returns the current size of the + ReactorEx's internal descriptor table. + + Added an initialized() accessor that returns true if ReactorEx + has been successfully initialized, else false. + + * ace/Reactor: + + The Reactor interface has been extended to be identical to the + ReactorEx interface. Some of these new operations will not be + supported in this version. However, we will have interface + compatability at this point. This allows the creation of the new + Reactor hierarchy in ACE. + + Added resume_handler(ACE_Handle_Set &) and + suspend_handler(ACE_Handle_Set &) to the Reactor. This + increases the similarity between ReactorEx and Reactor. + + Add a lock_adapter so that we can return an ACE_Lock form of our + internal lock. This changes the signature of the return type + from ACE_Reactor_Lock to ACE_Lock. + + Added a size() accessor that returns the current size of the + Reactor's internal descriptor table. + + Added wakeup_all_thread() operation. Currently it just does a + notify. + + Added alertable_handle_events() operation. Currently it just + calls handle_events(). + + Added register_handler (that take event handles) operations. + However, they are not supported in this version. They are mostly + here for interface compatibility with ReactorEx. + + * ace/XtReactor: Now inherits from Select_Reactor instead of + Reactor. + + * ace/Timer_Queue_T.h: Removed the inclusion of Time_Value.h. This + file does not exist anymore + + * ace/Synch_T (ACE_Lock_Adapter): Changed the implementation of + the adapter such that the user is allowed to (optionally) pass + in the locking mechanism. + + * ace/Strategies: Removed ACE_ReactorEx_Notification_Strategy. + + * ace/Service_Config: Updated Service_Config so that all ReactorEx + and Proactor methods are removed. ReactorEx does not exist any + longer and Proactor methods are available as statics methods on + the Proactor class. + + * ace/OS.h (ACE_DEFAULT_SELECT_REACTOR_SIZE): Changed + ACE_DEFAULT_REACTOR_SIZE to ACE_DEFAULT_SELECT_REACTOR_SIZE. + There is no default size dictated by the Reactor class anymore. + + * ace/Local_Tokens,Token: Added new methods: acquire_read, + acquire_write, tryacquire_read, tryacquire_write. These methods + allow the Tokens to be used by the ACE_Lock_Adapter class. + + * ace/Handle_Set.h (MAXSIZE): Changed ACE_DEFAULT_REACTOR_SIZE to + ACE_DEFAULT_SELECT_REACTOR_SIZE. There is no default size + dictated by the Reactor class anymore. + + * ace/Event_Handler: Removed the Proactor and ReactorEx pointers + from Event_Handler. The Proactor has its own event handler + (ACE_Handler), and the ReactorEx does not exist anymore. + + * ace/Proactor: + + Changed Proactor to work with the new Reactor. + + Updated Proactor to bring it upto date with the recent changes + to the Timer_Queue. + + * tests: + + Removed the ACE_NEW_THREAD macro. With the new thread adapter, + the log stream for the new thread will automatically be set to + the creator thread's stream. Therefore, this macro is not + needed. + + Removed the inclusion of Service_Config.h. All tests are now + accessing the singletons that are supported by the class directly. + + * examples/Reactor/Proactor: Updated examples to use and access + the new Reactor class instead of the old ReactorEx. + + * examples/Reactor/ReactorEx: Updated examples to use and access + the new Reactor class instead of the old ReactorEx. + +Sun Sep 14 09:50:22 1997 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/Singleton.i (ACE_Singleton): Moved the definition of the + ACE_Singleton default constructor into the *.i file.

This is very odd but wait a whole lot + longer seems to solve the problem. + + * ace/Log_Msg.cpp (close): On Win32, ACE_Log_Msg_Manager needs to + delete main thread's ACE_Log_Msg instance also. + +Thu Sep 11 10:37:00 1997 Carlos O'Ryan <coryan@polka.cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/ACE.cpp: + * ace/INET_Addr.cpp: + * ace/Log_Msg.h: + * ace/Memory_Pool.h: + * ace/OS.h: + * ace/OS.i: + * ace/Parse_Node.cpp: + * ace/Strategies_T.h: + * bin/clone.cpp: + * netsvcs/clients/Naming/Dump_Restore/Dump_Restore.h: + I checked the use of MAXNAMELEN vs. MAXPATHLEN; all buffers + intended to keep full filenames should have at least + MAXPATHLEN+1 chars. + Only buffers that will keep basenames (without any directories) + should have MAXNAMELEN+1 bytes. + I also added a new macro ACE_MAX_FULLY_QUALIFIED_NAME_LEN which + is the maximum number of characters for a fully qualified + internet hostname. + There remain one obscure usage of these macros in ace/Malloc.h + and Local_Naming_Space_T.{h,cpp}, but a quick fix broke + something, I will try again soon. + +Thu Sep 11 08:52:36 1997 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/OS.cpp (thr_key_detach): check to see if the + ACE_TSS_Cleanup lock has been constructed, and not + destructed, before attempting to use it. Statics are evil. + + * ace/Log_Msg.cpp (~ACE_Log_Msg): release guard before calling + ACE_Log_Msg_Manager::close (), because that deletes the lock. + + * ace/Managed_Object.{h,cpp} (get_object): changed type of "id" + to int because it will often be passed an enum. Pass "id" by + value to get_object (int id), for preallocated objects. + + * ace/Object_Manager.{h,cpp}: added ACE_LOG_MSG_INSTANCE_LOCK, + and ACE_PREALLOCATE_OBJECT macro. + + * include/makeinclude/wrapper_macros.GNU: ignore shared_libs_only + in modules that only build a static lib. Fixed shared_libs_only + by removing OBJDIRS, unless BIN is undefined, and VDIR. Removed + SHOBJ from both shared_libs_only and static_libs_only because + they're unused. + + * include/makeinclude/rules.local.GNU: added lib*.*_pure* to + clean.local target, to remove Purified libraries. + + * examples/Connection/non_blocking/Makefile, + examples/Service_Configurator/IPC-tests/server/Makefile: + removed -L./ from LDFLAGS because it's redundant: + wrapper_macros.GNU adds it. + +Wed Sep 10 22:58:10 1997 Douglas C.

Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/config-sunos5.5-g++.h: added + ACE_HAS_RECURSIVE_THR_EXIT_SEMANTICS. + + * include/makeinclude/wrapper_macros.GNU: added PIC= with + static_libs_only, and added list of supported make flags. + + * include/makeinclude/wrapper_macros.GNU: added support for + debug=0, etc. Also, made debug, optimize, and profile + flags independent instead of exclusive. Thanks to Per + Andersson for suggesting this. + + * include/makeinclude/platform_*.GNU: replaced "CFLAGS += + $(DCFLAGS) with debug=1 so that debugging can easily be + disabled.

Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/OS.cpp (cleanup_tss): On WIN32 and with ACE_HAS_TSS_EMULATION, + delete the ACE_TSS_Cleanup instance instead of registering it for + cleanup via the ACE_Object_Manager's at_exit (). This should allow + applications to use ACE_Log_Msg in their at_exit () hooks. Thanks + to Wei Chiang <chiang@tele.nokia.fi> for reporting this problem. + + * ace/Object_Manager.{h,cpp}: added guard of internal structures. + (dtor): call at_exit hooks before calling cleanup_tss, now that + the ACE_TSS_Cleanup instance is no longer registered for an at_exit + call. (at_exit): set errno instead of returning different values + on error. Added ACE_Managed_Object template class, intended for + use in replacing static instances. + + * ace/Thread_Manager.cpp (exit): release guard before running the + thread exit hooks. This should help avoid deadlocks, in case + one of those hooks needs to operate on the Thread_Manager. + + * ace/CORBA_Handler.{h,cpp},Dump.{h,cpp},Object_Manager.{h,cpp}: + preallocate locks for CORBA_Handler and Dump in ACE_Object_Manager. + Statics are evil. + + * ace/Synch.{h,cpp},OS.cpp,Object_Manager.{h,cpp}: removed + ACE_TSS_Cleanup_Lock and replaced it with a preallocated mutex + in OS.cpp. Thanks to Nanbor for reporting problems at shutdown + with the old ACE_TSS_Cleanup_Lock static instance. + + * include/makeinclude/platform_sunos5_sunc++.GNU: when building + libraries only, don't use CC to create individual .shobj/*.so + files. The .so files are not needed to build libraries, because + libraries are built with -G.

Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> + + * OS.{h,cpp}: added ACE_Cleanup base class and + ace_cleanup_destroyer adapter. + + * Object_Manager.*: added at_exit () interface for ACE_Cleanup objects. + + * Singleton.{h,cpp},Token_Invariants.{h,cpp},Token_Manager.{h,cpp}: + base on ACE_Cleanup, so that simpler ACE_Object_Manager::at_exit () + can be used. + + * performance-tests/Misc/Makefile: moved $(BIN) files from FILES + to SRC so that they don't get put into libPerf. + +Sat Sep 6 02:36:31 1997 Nanbor Wang <nw1@cumbia.cs.wustl.edu> + + * tests/test_config.h (set_output): Added openning flag ios::trunc + explicitly if we are not appending to the opening ofstream. + This is required by standard CPP iostream libraries on NT (i.e., + we can't use ios::out alone when ofstream.open a file.) + +Sat Sep 6 00:21:33 1997 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/Synch_T.h: Added new constructors: + + ACE_Guard(ACE_LOCK& l) : lock_(&l) + { this->owner_ = this->acquire(); } + + ACE_Read_Guard(ACE_LOCK& m) : ACE_Guard(&m) + { this->owner_ = this->acquire_read(); } + + ACE_Write_Guard(ACE_LOCK& m) : ACE_Guard(&m) + { this->owner_ = this->acquire_write(); } + + Remove default argument to current Guard classes. + + ACE_Guard(ACE_LOCK&l, int block) + ACE_Read_Guard(ACE_LOCK& m, int block) + ACE_Write_Guard(ACE_LOCK&m, int block) + with the current semantic. + + This change allows OS platforms with + ACE_HAS_EXPLICIT_TEMPLATE_INSTANTIATION or ACE_HAS ??? PRAGMA + ???, to> invoke common case constructor in a more efficient + way. Thanks to Arturo for this. + + * ace/Synch_T.h: ACE_Guard's destructor should be: + + ~ACE_Guard() { this->release(); } + + and not + + ~ACE_Guard() { if (this->owner_ != -1) this->release(); } + + because ACE_Guard::release has this test. Thanks to Arturo for + reporting this. + + * ace/ARGV.cpp: Declared the char* parameters for the ACE_ARGV + class constructors as const. Since they are copied in the + constructors, this is a safe thing to do. This makes it easier + to pass the result of string::c_str() to it. Thanks to Stephen + Coy <stevec@magna.com.au> for this suggestion. + + * ace/Thread_Manager.cpp: We were missing a Guard in the + ACE_Thread_Manager::at_exit() method. + + * ace/config-sunos5.5-sunc++-4.x.h: It appears that we need to set + ACE_HAS_RECURSIVE_THR_EXIT_SEMANTICS for Solaris 2.5 since otherwise + wierd things happen randomly. This is based on the following man + page entry for pthread_exit(): + + Do not call pthread_exit() from a cancellation cleanup handler + or destructor function that will be invoked as a result of + either an implicit or explicit call to pthread_exit(). + + * ace/Thread_Manager.cpp (run_thread_exit_hooks): Once the cleanup + hook(s) are called we set the value of the cleanup hook variable + to 0 to avoid false matches later on. + +Fri Sep 5 21:57:44 1997 Nanbor Wang <nw1@cumbia.cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/Containers.i (is_empty): + * ace/Malloc.cpp (instance): Commented out ACE_TRACE in these + routines. They were causing recursive call if we used TRACE. + Thanks to Craig Perras <craig.perras@CyberSafe.COM> for solving + this. + + * ace/Handle_Set.i (fd_set *): Added conditional compilation code + for Win32 platforms.

Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/OS.cpp: (tss_open): removed paren from around type in "new" + statement, because GHS (and ANSI C++) compilers will choke on it. + Thanks to Brian Mendel <brian.r.mendel@boeing.com> for reporting + this. + + * ace/Thread_Manager.cpp: (ACE_Thread_Descriptor ctor): zero out + cleanup_hook_ in cleanup_info_ because we read it later on. + (dump): added guard because thr_table_ is accessed. (wait): + hacked in thr_yield () to give waited threads a chance to clean + up before continuing. + + * ace/OS.h (ACE_Cleanup_Info): added default ctor. + + * ace/Log_Msg.cpp (close): delete main thread's Log_Msg instance, + on Solaris if ACE_HAS_EXCEPTIONS is not defined, because main + thread TSS dtors apparently don't get called. + + * ace/Token_Manager.{h,cpp}: register ACE_Token_Manager singleton + for deletion with ACE_Object_Manager. + + * ace/Token_Invariants.{h,cpp}: register ACE_Token_Invariant_Manager + singleton for deletion with ACE_Object_Manager. + + * ace/Naming_Context.cpp (close) moved deletion of "name_options_" + from dtor to close (), because when Service_Repository is closed, + it calls close () instead of deleting the service. + + * ace/Process_Strategy.cpp (handle_signal): suppress printouts during + shutdown, to prevent using ACE_Log_Msg while it's being deleted. + + * ace/Timer_List.cpp: replace ACE_Recursive_Thread_Mutex with + ACE_SYNCH_RECURSIVE_MUTEX, for non-threaded platforms. + + * tests/Reactors_Test (~Test_Task): moved ASSERT after the printout, + so we can see why it failed. (svc): added printout with thread ID. + (main): deleted reactor at end of test to prevent leak. + + * tests/SPIPE_Test (client): increased sleep time to 10 sec, + because a long delay is needed with Purify. + + * tests/UPIPE_Test (connector): added 5 second sleep to give + acceptor a chance to start up. + + * include/makeinclude/wrapper_macros.GNU: added -max_threads=100 to + Quantify options. + + * include/makeinclude/rules.local.GNU: added *.sym to clean target. + +Thu Sep 04 09:39:08 1997 David L.

Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/Task: Revised the ACE_Task_Base::svc_run() method to + register a thread exit hook (ACE_Task_Base::cleanup()) + + * ace/Task: Added a static method called cleanup() that can serve + as a thread exit hook to ensure that close() is always called + when a task exits a thread. + + * ace/Thread_Manager: Added the first-cut implementation of the + thread exit hooks.

Now, if ACE_HAS_HANDLE_SET_OPTIMIZED_FOR_SELECT enabled + it will use a very fast loop that only runs for as many bits + that are enabled in the bitset. This approach also doesn't have + to access the Global Offset Table in shared libraries, which is + a win. Thanks to Arturo for contributing this. + + * tests/Async_Timer_Queue_Test.cpp: Generalized this test to use + the new ACE_Async_Timer_Queue_Adapter. + + * ace/Timer_Queue_T: Added the new ACE_Async_Timer_Queue_Adapter, + which makes it possible to encapsulate any of the ACE Timer + Queue mechanisms into a asynchronous signal-handling context. + + * ace/OS.i: If the platform doesn't support ualarm() (and it + doesn't lack UNIX signals) then we'll use alarm() rather + than ualarm().

This will help to optimize the + performance of the Reactor. Thanks to Arturo for suggesting + this. + + * ace/Handle_Set.cpp (count_bits): Added yet another improvement + to remove the "i" iterator. Thanks to Arturo for this! + + * ace/Log_Msg.cpp (log): Used the new ACE_Log_Record::priority() + method in place of the type() method so that the priorities are + handled correctly. + + * ace/Log_Record: Added two new methods that get/set the + "priority" of an ACE_Log_Record. This value computed as the + base 2 log of the value of the corresponding ACE_Log_Priority + enumeral (which are all powers of two). We need this mapping + function so that we can use the priorities as parameters to the + putpmsg() function (which can only map between 0-255).

This simplifies certain internal ACE code. + Thanks to David Levine for pointing this out. + + * ace/Handle_Set.cpp (count_bits): Changed the code from + + for (int i = 0; i < sizeof (u_long); i++) + { + rval += ACE_Handle_Set::nbits_[n & 0xff]; + n >>= 8; + } + + to + + for (int i = 0; n != 0; i++) + { + rval += ACE_Handle_Set::nbits_[n & 0xff]; + n >>= 8; + } + + in order to speed it up in the "best case."

This macro + takes four arguments, POINTER, DEALLOCATOR, CLASS, and + TEMPLATE_PARAMETER. To deallocate a pointer allocated by + ACE_NEW_MALLOC and you need to call FOO<BAR> class'es + destructor, you'll write: + + ACE_DES_FREE_TEMPLATE (ptr, alloc->free, FOO, <BAR>); + + * ace/Containers.cpp: Changed to use ACE_DES_FREE_TEMPLATE to iron + out differences among compilers. + +Fri Aug 29 15:31:50 1997 David L.

Schmidt <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/Thread_Manager.cpp: Added a new ace_thread_manager_adapter() + function, which is similar to the ace_thread_adapter function + used in ACE_OS::thr_create(). However, the new function ensures + that threads spawned by an ACE_Thread_Manager are automatically + registered and deregistered from the Thread Manager. + + * ace/ACE.h (inherit_log_msg): Factored out the functionality to + inherit the logging features if the parent thread has an + ACE_Log_Msg instance in thread-specific storage. This function + is called in several places (e.g., OS.cpp and + Thread_Manager.cpp), so it pays to factor it out. + + * ace/OS.h (ACE_Thread_Adapter): Added a new data member that + keeps track of which thread entry point function we will pass to + the underlying OS thread creation routine. The default value is + ace_thread_adapter, but this can be overridden to do different + things... + + * ace/OS, + ace/Thread: Extended thr_create() so that if an + ACE_Thread_Adapter is passed to it this is used in lieu of the + func and arg parameters. This reduces the amount of dynamic + allocation and indirection required with the new + ACE_Thread_Manager. + + * ace/Task.h: Removed the ACE_Thread_Control data member from the + ACE_Task_Exit class since it now belongs to the + ACE_Thread_Manager instead... + + * ace/OS.cpp: Move the ACE_Thread_Adapter out of the OS.cpp file + and made it a first-class citizen of ACE. We can put this + to good use in the new ACE_Thread_Manager. + + * ace/OS.cpp: The ACE_Thread_Adapter is now the default behavior + in ACE.

This is different from the strtok() family b/c + for the string ":/foo:/bar::boo", strtok() would return "/foo", + "/bar", "boo", while strsplit_r() returns "", "/foo", "/bar", + "", "boo". This method is also properly re-entrant, and thus + safe to use among multiple threads. + + * ace/ACE.cpp (ldfind): Fixed this so that it now properly deals + with paths containing empty components intended to indicate + 'current directory'. + +Thu Aug 14 17:30:36 1997 Steve Huston <shuston@riverace.com> + + * ace/config-hpux-10.x.h - Add ACE_LACKS_CONST_STRBUF_PTR, remove + ACE_HAS_POSIX_SEM, clarify comments regarding setting of + _CMA_NOWRAPPERS_ - thanks to Cary Clark <claca@iccokc.com> for + helping in this effort. + +Thu Aug 14 16:14:47 1997 David L.

We really don't need + to reset them when creating new threads. Once VxWorks can also + inherit ACE_Log_Msg's properties, we no longer need this macro. + + * ace/Log_Msg.h: Added trace_depth() functions. They are required + for inheriting ACE_Log_Msg's properties. + + * ace/OS.cpp: Changed ACE_Thread_Adapter implementation so that + newly created threads will inherit properties from their parent + threads. This is the default behavior and is valid on all + platform except VxWorks. If you don't want it and would like to + arrange the properties propagation yourself, you must define + ACE_THREADS_DONT_INHERIT_LOG_MSG in your ace/config.h file. Now, + creating a new thread will go thru ace_thread_adapter on all + platform except VxWorks. If ACE_THREADS_DONT_INHERIT_LOG_MSG is + defined but your platform defines ACE_HAS_THR_C_FUNC or + ACE_WIN32, creating new threads still need to use + ace_thread_adapter.

Thanks to Amos Shapira for reporting this. + + * ace/Reactor.cpp (close): Removed the #ifdefs around + notify_handler_.open () and notify_handler_.close() since this + is now supposed to be available on all build configurations. + Thansk to Stefan Ericsson for reporting this. + + * examples/Service_Configurator/IPC-tests/server/Handle_Thr_Stream.cpp: + Removed a static variable that seemed to be causing problems for + SGI C++. Also, removed the now unnecessary "inherited" from + Handle_Thr_Acceptor. + + * examples/ASX/UPIPE_Event_Server/Peer_Router.h, + * netsvcs/lib/Log_Message_Receiver.h: Added an + ACE_UNIMPLEMENTED_FUNC macro for the assignment operator to work + around silly "features" of SGI C++... + + * include/makeinclude/platform_irix6.[x-]32_sgic++.GNU: Added some + additional patches to suppress warning code.

Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> + + * include/makeinclude/platform_vxworks5.x_ghs.GNU: disabled + automatic template instantiation, because we use explicit + template instantiation, via a #pragma, with Green Hills. + Thanks to Brian Mendel <brian.r.mendel@boeing.com> for + finding the compiler options. + +Mon Aug 11 17:45:44 1997 Nanbor Wang <nw1@cumbia.cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/OS.cpp (ace_thread_adapter): Changed the code so that TSS + ACE_Log_Msg will get created and put into cleanup stack first no + matter there is other ACE_Log_Msg instances or not.

These implement the following methods: + + read, readv, write, writev, recv, recvfrom, recvmsg, send, sendto, sendmsg. + + The implementation provides two flavors: MIT pthread support, an + ACE portable support. To use MIT pthread support, you must to + define ACE_HAS_READ_TIMEDWAIT, ACE_HAS_READV_TIMEDWAIT, + ACE_HAS_WRITE_TIMEDWAIT, ACE_HAS_RECV_TIMEDWAIT, + ACE_HAS_RECVFROM_TIMEDWAIT, ACE_HAS_RECVMSG_TIMEDWAIT, + ACE_HAS_SEND_TIMEDWAIT, ACE_HAS_SENDTO_TIMEDWAIT and + ACE_HAS_SENDMSG_TIMEDWAIT respectively. See the config.h file + for SCO UNIX for an example. + + This new approach is not only more powerful (since it takes + advantage of OS-level mechanisms when they exist), but it also + greatly improves the modularity of the code and provides a + wider range of supported functionality. Thanks to Arturo + Montes <mitosys@colomsat.net.co> for this new feature. + + * ace/ACE.cpp: Added comments to the ACE_Object_Manager_Destroyer + class. + + * ace/OS.h: Redid all the function prototypes for class ACE_OS so + that it's easier to read the arguments. + + * ace/config-sco-5.0.0-mit-pthread.h: Added the new macros that + enable timed reads and writes.

On platforms like Win32, ACE uses + template specialization to use native implementations provided + by the OS to accelarate these operations. + + * ace/config-win32-common.h (ACE_HAS_INTERLOCKED_EXCHANGEADD): + Added macro to config file. This macro is automatically set true + for NT4.0 systems or greater. + + * ace/Atomic_Op.i: On Win32 platforms, this code will be included + as template source code and will not be inlined. Therefore, we + first turn off ACE_INLINE, set it to be nothing, include this + code, and then turn ACE_INLINE back to its original setting. All + this nonsense is necessary since the generic template code that + needs to be specialized cannot be inlined, else the compiler + will ignore the specialization code. Also, the specialization + code *must* be inlined or the compiler will ignore the + specializations. + + The creation of this new file is necessary for non-Win32 + platforms to continue to inline the code as before. + + * ace/Synch_T.cpp: This file must include Atomic_Op.i if + ACE_INLINE has not be turned on. If it is, this file must be + included by Synch_T.h. + + * ace/Synch.cpp: Moved the specialization code from Synch.cpp to + Atomic_Op.i.

Also, removed + LM_SHUTDOWN call, because the logger apparently gets shutdown + now with everything else (with ACE_Object_Manager). + + * ace/Object_Manager.* (delete_at_exit,delete_array_at_exit): + made these (inline) static functions, with return values. + + * tests/IOStream_Test.cpp (client,server): explicitly destroy + (and create) ACE_SOCK_IOStream instances, because they don't + get destroyed on Solaris. They're on the stack of separate + threads, so maybe the problem is related to not cleaning up + TSS on Solaris. Thanks to James CE Johnson <jcej@lads.com> + for some efficient debugging work, and for verifying that the + original code works properly on Linux. + +Mon Jul 28 21:59:09 1997 Nanbor Wang <nw1@cumbia.cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/ace.mak: Added file Object_Manager.cpp. + + * ace/OS.h: Added #define RTLD_LAZY when + ACE_HAS_SVR4_DYNAMIC_LINKING and RTLD_LAZY is not defined. + FreeBSD 2.2.1 "forgot" to put in this definition. Thanks to + Satoshi Ueno for reporting this. + +Mon Jul 28 13:27:21 1997 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/Object_Manager: Made a few minor stylistic updates. + + * netsvcs/servers/main.cpp (main): Updated this test program to + utilize the new ACE_Service_Object_Ptr class. + + * ace/Service_Object.h: Added a new smart pointer call + ACE_Service_Object_Ptr, which generalizes functionality that was + previously in the ./netsvcs/server/main.cpp file. Thanks to Wei + Chiang for this suggestion. + + * examples/Threads/process_manager.cpp (parse_args): Removed the + unused n_processes global variable. Thanks to Amos Shapira for + reporting this. + + * tests/SPIPE_Test.cpp (main): Cleaned up the #ifdef structure + to remove compiler warnings. Thanks to Amos Shapira for + this. + + * tests/Handle_Set_Test.cpp (test_performance): Removed an unused + ACE_HANDLE handle definition. Thanks to Amos Shapira for + reporting this. + + * ace/OS.i (sema_init): Swapped else and #endif to avoid + a compile error when ACE_LACKS_NAMED_POSIX_SEM is false. + Thanks to Wei Chiang for reporting this. + + * ace/OS.cpp (rwlock_init): Added a cast to (const void *) to keep + certain compilers from complaining. Thanks to Thilo and + Amos Shapira for reporting this. + + * ace/OS.i (sema_wait): *tv should have been &tv. Thanks to Thilo + for reporting this. + +Mon Jul 28 13:57:21 1997 James C Hu <jxh@swarm.cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/config-irix6.4-sgic++.h: Added template specialization #def. + +Sun Jul 27 20:47:01 1997 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> + + * tests/Handle_Set_Test.cpp: Instantiate templates with + ACE_HANDLE instead of int. + + * examples/IPC_SAP/SPIPE_SAP/NPServer.cpp (main): use + ACE_OS::fprintf () instead of cerr. + +Sun Jul 27 20:10:26 1997 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ACE version 4.2.24, released Sun Jul 27 20:10:26 1997. + +Sun Jul 27 16:03:30 1997 Nanbor Wang <nw1@cumbia.cs.wustl.edu> + + * tests/Handle_Set_Test.cpp (test_boundaries): Changed class of + queue from ACE_Unbounded_Queue<int> to + ACE_Unbounded_Queue<ACE_HANDLE> so it declares the right data + type. + + * ace/Synch.cpp (ACE_Process_Mutex): + * ace/OS.cpp (rwlock_init): + * ace/ACE.cpp (unique_name): Memories for placing unique_name are + now declared using ACE_UNIQUE_NAME_LEN. When calling + ACE::unique_name, the length is also specified using + ACE_UNIQUE_NAME_LEN because using "sizeof (buffer)" also caused + problem if we are using UNICODE. + + * ace/OS.h: Added a new directive ACE_UNIQUE_NAME_LEN to specified + the maximum length of an "unique name." + +Sun Jul 27 15:32:08 1997 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> + + * tests/Handle_Set_Test.cpp (main): uncommented + test_duplicates () and test_performance () calls, and added + ACE_Unbounded_Queue_Iterator<int> specialization. + +Sun Jul 27 14:25:33 1997 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@merengue.cs.wustl.edu> + + * tests/Handle_Set_Test.cpp (test_boundaries): Added a better test + to ensure that the ACE_Handle_Set_Iterators are working + correctly. This works by inserting the handles in a queue and + then making sure that they are the same values we receive from + the iterator. + + * ace/Handle_Set.i (operator): Fixed a subtle bug in the + ACE_Handle_Set_Iterator implementation. We need to make + sure that we increment the handle_index_ to the beginning + of the next word whenever we've examined all the bits in + the current word. Thanks to David Levine for noticing this + problem. + +Sun Jul 27 09:06:29 1997 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> + + * include/makeinclude/rules.lib.GNU: replaced hard-coded ".so" + with "$(SOEXT)". + + * include/makeinclude/rules.local.GNU: added/completed support + for "$(SOEXT)", and "$(VSHDIR)" instead of always hard-coding + them as ".so" and ".shobj/". + + * include/makeinclude/wrapper_macros.GNU: added support for + override of "$(VSHDIR)" in platform_macros.GNU. + + * apps/JAWS/clients/{Blobby,Caching}/Makefile, + apps/JAWS/stress_testing/Makefile, + apps/Orbix-Examples/Event_Comm/{Consumer,Supplier}/Makefile, + examples/ASX/Event_Server/Event_Server/Makefile, + examples/ASX/UPIPE_Event_Server/Makefile, + examples/Logger/simple-server/Makefile, + examples/Mem_Map/IO-tests/Makefile, + examples/Naming/Makefile, + examples/Reactor/Multicast/Makefile, + examples/Service_Configurator/Misc/Makefile, + examples/Shared_Malloc/Makefile: + replaced hard-coded ".shobj" with "$(VSHDIR)" in LDLIBS definitions. + + * include/makeinclude/platform_vxworks5.x_{g++,ghs}.GNU: + added overrides of .so build rules to change them .o builds. + + The above changes allow builds of modules that specify .shobj/*.so + on VxWorks, by mapping those objects to .obj/*.o. + +Sun Jul 27 03:07:35 1997 Nanbor Wang <nw1@cumbia.cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/ACE.cpp (unique_name): Added __TEXT macro to the format + string in sprintf to avoid a nasty problem when using UNICODE on + NT. + +Sat Jul 26 21:12:07 1997 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/ReactorEx.cpp: added a couple of ACE_UNUSED_ARG's. + + * examples/Logger/simple-server/Logging_Handler.cpp (handle_input): + replace use of cerr with stderr (by using default arg of + ACE_Log_Record::print ()). + + * examples/Shared_Malloc/test_multiple_mallocs.cpp (main): use + ACE_OS::printf () instead of cout. + + * examples/Shared_Malloc/test_persistence.cpp: added #include + of iostream.h with ACE_HAS_MINIMUM_IOSTREAMH_INCLUSION. + +Sat Jul 26 15:55:43 1997 <irfan@TWOSTEP> + + * ace/Malloc_T.cpp (ACE_Cached_Allocator): Changed (T *) to + (T*). VC++ did not like the former. + + * The entire ACE distribution was updated to use the new singleton + methods. The old singleton methods in Service_Config have been + deprecated and users are encouraged not to use these methods + anymore. It may not be supported in future releases. The + replacement is the instance() methods in the individual classes. + For example, ACE_Service_Config::reactor() is replaced by + ACE_Reactor::instance(). A perl script has been added + (ACE_wrappers/bin/Service_Config.perl) to allow users to change + their code over to the new methods. + + These changes will hopefully help in reducing the compile-time + dependencies in ACE source files and allow smaller custom ACE + libraries to be compiled. + + Thanks to Matthias Kerkhoff <make@cs.tu-berlin.de> for making + these changes. + +Sat Jul 26 15:44:45 1997 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@mambo.cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/Malloc_T.cpp (ACE_Cached_Allocator): I think we want to + say "sizeof (T)" rather than "sizeof (T *)". + + * ace/FILE_IO.i (recv_n): There is a minor bug fix to be made in + FILE_IO.i. The method ACE_FILE_IO::recv_n() should call + ACE::read_n(), not ACE::recv_n(). Similarly, the method + ACE_FILE_IO::send_n() should call ACE::write_n(), not + ACE::send_n(). The functions ::recv() and ::send() are intended + only for *socket* I/O, and return failure conditions when + applied to *file* I/O. Thanks to David Brackman + <dbrackman@OhioEE.com> for reporting this. + + * ace: Changed all LOCK names to ACE_LOCK to avoid clashes + with macros in the KAI C++ compiler. Thanks to Jeff + R. Hayes <Jeff.Hayes@osi.com> for pointing this out. + + * ace/Malloc_T.i: Added ACE_INLINE to some methods that weren't + getting inlined. + + * ace/OS.i: Added an implementation of timed semaphores for the + POSIX threading APIs. Also cleaned up the return values from + sema_wait() so that it always returns -1 if an error occurs + (originally, it was returning -2, which is confusing). Also + cleaned up the rd_lock() and wr_lock() methods in the same way. + +Sat Jul 26 16:00:05 1997 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> + + * Malloc_T.cpp (ACE_Cached_Allocator): fixed typo, sizeof (T*) + instead of sizeof (*T). + + * Proactor.cpp (instance): fixed signature in non-WIN32 + version. (run_event_loop): added ACE_UNUSED_ARG (tv). + +Fri Jul 25 12:08:47 1997 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/OS.[hi]: finished VxWorks (non-POSIX) semaphore implementation. + + * ace/Process.cpp (spawn): with GreenHills compiler only (for + VxWorks), call ACE_NOTSUP_RETURN instead of spawning via execve. + GreenHills 1.8.8 loses its lunch on the ACE_OS::execve () call. + Thanks to Dave Mayerhoefer <davem@lynx.com> for reporting + this problem. + + * tests/Mem_Map_Test.cpp (create_test_file): delete array "mybuf" + to prevent memory leak. + + * tests/Message_Queue_Test.cpp (main): delete "buffer" + elements at end of test to prevent memory leaks. + + * performance-tests/Misc/context_switch_time.cpp: use + ACE_Sched_Params for platform-independent thread priority + assignment. Also, modified Yield_Test so that only one thread + writes the test's timer. + + * examples/ASX/UPIPE_Event_Server/Peer_Router.cpp (svc): + replaced an iostream printout with an ACE_DEBUG call. + + * examples/ASX/UPIPE_Event_Server/event_server.cpp: added + #include of iostream.h with ACE_HAS_MINIMUM_IOSTREAMH_INCLUSION. + + * examples/IPC_SAP/FILE_SAP/client.cpp: require 2 args instead + of 1; mask file mode with 0777 (octal); and use + ACE_OS::printf () instead of cout. + +Fri Jul 25 00:46:22 1997 <irfan@TWOSTEP> + + * ace/Synch: Added documentation for Condition variables.

Notice tne + combined strings must be terminated with two null chars. I need + to use this class in ACE::get_ip_interfaces. + + * ace/Malloc_T.{h,i}: Changed the implementation of + ACE_Cached_Mem_Pool_Node from using union to a plain pointer. + This is because some C++ compilers don't allow union member to + have copy constructor. Thanks to Tim to dig this out. + +Wed Jul 23 12:58:04 1997 Steve Huston <shuston@riverace.com> + + * ace/CORBA_Ref.cpp: Added #include "ace/Log_Msg.h" to catch the + ACE_DEBUG macro. |
