Thanks to + Barry Hoggard <hoggardb@panix.com> for reporting this. + +Fri Dec 25 01:55:32 1998 Irfan Pyarali <irfan@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/Hash_Map_Manager: There are two problems with the current + implementation of Hash_Map_Manager: + + (a) It requires a hash() method on the key type. If it is not + possible for the key type to have a hash() function (e.g., + the key is a primitive type such as an int, or is a pointer + type, or a three party class), the usual solution is to do + partial template specialization. + + This is usually not a very good option since some compilers + do not support partial template specialization. + + (b) The second problem is with comparing two keys. + Hash_Map_Manager assumes that keys can be compared using + operator==. This assumption causes problems in some cases, + e.g., when using char * as the key. Usually with char *, + you want to use strcmp and not compare pointers. + + Solution to these two problems is the new Hash_Map_Manager_Ex + class. Problem (a) is addressed by using a function object - the + type of which is specified by the user as an additional template + parameter. Problem (b) is addressed by using another function + object - the type of which is specified by the user as an + additional template parameter. So the new Hash_Map_Manager_Ex + takes five template parameters: + + <key, value, hash_key, compare_keys, mutex> + + Backward compatibility: Hash_Map_Manager now inherits from + Hash_Map_Manager_Ex, fixing the hash_key function object (which + simply calls key.hash()) and fixing compare_keys (which simply + uses operator== on the keys). + + There will be one problem: Users of compilers that do not + implicitly instantiate templates will have to update their list + of template instantiations. To help with this, please see + $ACE_ROOT/bin/Hash_Map_Manager_Helper.csh + + Other miscellaneous changes: Added two new classes: ACE_Hash<T> + and ACE_Equal_To<T>. ACE_Hash assumes a hash() method on T. + ACE_Equal_To compares by using operator==. However, the + ACE_Hash class has been specialized to work with: + + char, signed char, unsigned char, + short, unsigned short, + int, unsigned int, + long, unsigned long, + const char *, char *, + const wchar_t *, wchar_t *, + const ACE_USHORT16 *, ACE_USHORT16 *, + + Also, ACE_Equal_To has been specialized to work with: + + const char *, char *, + const wchar_t *, wchar_t *, + const ACE_USHORT16 *, ACE_USHORT16 *, + + Remember, you don't have to use these specialization. You can + always create your own. + + If we had default template parameters, we could default hash_key + to ACE_Hash<key> and compare_keys could default to + ACE_Equal_To<key>. + + BTW, note that the specialization with ACE_Hash and ACE_Equal_To + is not partial template specialization. It is complete template + specialization, and we don't know of compilers that cannot + handle complete template specialization. + + Since we now have template specialization, Hash_Map_Manager_T.* + files were created. I also took this opportunity to inline most + of the Hash_Map_Manager functions. + + Also, update the makefiles and project files. + + BTW, these changes grossly simplified + tests/Hash_Map_Manager_Test.cpp and tests/Map_Manager_Test.cpp. + These tests will now work with compilers that do not support + partial template specialization. Maybe James can change + Filecache to take advantage of these changes. + + Updated the following files with the new template instantiations: + + ace/Filecache.cpp + ace/Local_Name_Space.cpp + ace/Template_Instantiations.cpp + tests/Conn_Test.cpp + tests/Hash_Map_Manager_Test.cpp + tests/Map_Manager_Test.cpp + TAO/examples/Callback_Quoter/Notifier_i.cpp + TAO/examples/POA/On_Demand_Loading/Servant_Manager.cpp + TAO/examples/Simple/bank/AccountManager_i.cpp + TAO/orbsvcs/orbsvcs/AV/AVStreams_i.cpp + TAO/orbsvcs/orbsvcs/Event/EC_Gateway_UDP.cpp + TAO/orbsvcs/orbsvcs/Log/Logger_i.cpp + TAO/orbsvcs/orbsvcs/Property/CosPropertyService_i.cpp + TAO/orbsvcs/orbsvcs/Naming/CosNaming_i.cpp + TAO/orbsvcs/orbsvcs/Trader/Service_Type_Repository.cpp + TAO/orbsvcs/orbsvcs/Trader/Trader.cpp + TAO/orbsvcs/orbsvcs/Trader/Trader_Utils.cpp + TAO/tao/ORB.cpp + TAO/tao/ORB_Core.cpp + TAO/tao/Object_Table.cpp + TAO/tao/Operation_Table.cpp + TAO/tao/POA.cpp + examples/Map_Manager/test_hash_map_manager.cpp + + Thanks to Carlos for suggesting these changes. Most of these + were inspired by SGI's STL. + + If these changes are successful (i.e., nobody is hunting me down + for breaking their code ;-)), we should add a similar comparison + function object to Map_Manager, Collections in Containers_T that + require an operator==() (typically for remove() and find()) and + the RB_Tree. + + * ace/ACE (hash_pjw): hash_pjw is now available for char *, + wchar_t *, and ACE_UINT16 *. + + * ace/OS (strlen, strcpy, strcmp): These functions are now + available for char *, wchar_t *, and ACE_UINT16 *. + + * ace/SString.cpp (ACE_WString::strlen): Simply calls + ACE_OS::strlen. + + * ace/config-win32-common.h (ACE_HAS_WCHAR_TYPEDEFS_USHORT): Since + Win32 typedefs wchar_t as a 16 bit unsigned short, this can + potentially cause problems with function overloading. + Therefore, I added ACE_HAS_WCHAR_TYPEDEFS_USHORT to the Win32 + config file. This is very similar to + ACE_HAS_WCHAR_TYPEDEFS_CHAR. Thanks to David Levine for helping + with this. + +Thu Dec 24 09:37:32 1998 Douglas C.

Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ACE-INSTALL.html: updated egcs version information. + + * VERSION: added ace-users/comp.soft-sys.ace info. + + * include/makeinclude/platform_osf1_4.0.GNU: added suppression + of warning 1136, conversion to integral type of smaller size + could lose data. cxx V6.1-029 spews out a bunch of them, + otherwise. + + * tests/Time_Value_Test.cpp: protected definition of __ACE_INLINE__. + Thanks to Ossama for reporting this. + +1998-12-11 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/Message_Queue.{h,i,cpp} (ACE_Message_Queue_Base): Added a + bunch of pure virture functions in the class to define the + common interface functions of a message queue. This allows up + to experiment different message queue implementations easily. + Most significantly, all queueing operations are simplified into + <enqueue> and <dequeue> method in ACE_Message_Queue_Base as + "standard" queueing operations. Inherited class, of course, can + add fancier queueing operations (as in ACE_Message_Queue.) + + (ACE_Message_Queue_NT): A new adapter class inherited from + ACE_Message_Queue_Base that implement a message queue using NT's + IO completion ports. As it's name implies, this is a + specialized version for NT. It is not as versatile as ACE's + general MQ implementation. However, this implementation + consumes less NT handles which in some circumstances may be a + big win (because ACE_Message_Queue uses cv and on NT, cv is + simulated and consumes 4 handles per cv. ACE_Message_Queue_NT + only uses one handle and one critical section.) + + Several features inherited from IO completion port are, the + waiting threads are release in LIFO order, and you can control + (at initialization time,) the max number of threads that can be + release by the message queue to run concurrently. + + Notice that the constructor and the <open> method have different + signature compared with those of ACE_Message_Queue. You should + use ACE_Message_Queue_Factory to create a message queue on the + fly if so desired. + + Thanks to Mark Lucovsky <markl@microsoft.com> and Karlheinz Dorn + <Karlheinz.Dorn@med.siemens.de> for providing the idea. + + * ace/Message_Queue_T.h (dequeue): Added the new method to match + with the changes in ACE_Message_Queue_Base. + (create_NT_message_queue): A wrapper function to manufacture an + ACE_Message_Queue_NT. + + +Thu Dec 10 09:08:26 1998 David L.

Thanks to David + O'Farrell <dave.ofarrell@aersoft.ie> for suggesting this. + + * tests/Upgradable_RW_Test.cpp: Revised the programming style ;-). + + * tests/Map_Manager_Test.cpp: Replaced all uses of postfix ++ + operators with prefix ++ operators because they are faster when + iterating over the various Maps. + + * ace/[Hash_]Map_Manager: Today we decided to remove the use of + locking for the ACE[_Hash]_Map_Manager Iterators. The original + scheme acquired the mutex of the [Hash_]Map_Manager on every + ++operator++/--operator-- call. Not only was this very + inefficient, but it was also essentially useless since it + doesn't protect against arbitrary insertions/deletions in the + underlying map during the iteration. + + Our first thought was to put an ACE_Read_Guard into the iterator + itself and acquire this for the duration of the iteration. + However, this approach is totally broken when using STL-style + iterators since the postfix ++ and -- operators return a copy of + the iterator, which easily causes deadlocks if non-recursive + mutexes are used. + + After much discussion, we decided it's better to let users + figure out their own locking usecase, rather than have the + iterators guess wrong and either screw up their code or yield + substantial inefficiencies. Therefore, the right approach is to + do something like this: + + typedef ACE_Map_Manager <TYPE1, TYPE2, ACE_Thread_Mutex> MAP_MANAGER; + typedef ACE_Map_Iterator <TYPE1, TYPE2, ACE_Thread_Mutex> ITERATOR; + typedef ACE_Map_Entry <TYPE1, TYPE2> ENTRY; + + void + foo (MAP_MANAGER &map) + { + // ... + { + // Explicitly grab the lock and hold it for the duration of + // the iteration. + ACE_READ_GUARD (ACE_Thread_Mutex, ace_mon, map.mutex ()); + + ITERATOR end = map.end (); + + for (ITERATOR iter = map.begin (); + iter != end; + ++iter) + { + ENTRY &entry = *iter; + ++i; + } + // ... + } + + Note that as a general rule, it's better to use ++i rather than + i++ to avoid unnecessary copies. + +Fri Oct 16 14:57:58 1998 Irfan Pyarali <irfan@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/Hash_Map_Manager and Map_Manager: Fixed the operator++ and + operator--.

Now, if ACE_HAS_TSS_EMULATION + is used and ACE_HAS_THREAD_SPECIFIC_STORAGE is #defined, then + the ACE TSS emulation will use one native TSS key. + + ACE_TSS_EMULATION may be useful even on platforms that + have native thread specific storage. It offers these + advantages: + + 1) ACE's TSS emulation offers a configurable number of TSS + keys, via ACE_DEFAULT_THREAD_KEYS. Most (all?) native TSS + implementations have a fixed number of keys. LynxOS 3.0.0, + for example, only has three keys available to applications. + + ACE_DEFAULT_THREAD_KEYS defaults to 64, to match the + number of native keys on Windows NT. + + 2) ACE's TSS emulation recycles deleted keys. Some native TSS + implementations, such as POSIX Draft 4, POSIX Draft 6, and + Solaris, do not allow deletion of TSS keys. Therefore, + unused keys cannot be recycled. + + 3) ACE's TSS emulation calls destructors on TSS objects in the + main thread. Solaris' native TSS, for example, does not. + + There is one known drawback to using ACE's TSS emulation: it is + slower than using native TSS. The performance penalty is + probably negligible for most applications, however. It involves + just an additional function call, an array index, and three numeric + comparisons beyond the native TSS call. The function call is + _not_ a virtual function call. (On MVS, there's an additional + memcpy of the TSS key with TSS emulation.) + + TSS emulation is enabled by default in the ACE configurations + for VxWorks, pSOS, and LynxOS. + + Many thanks to Arturo Montes <mitosys@colomsat.net.co> for + expanding TSS emulation to platform that have native TSS. + +Sun Sep 27 20:12:13 EDT 1998 James CE Johnson <jcej@chiroptera.tragus.org> + + * docs/tutorials/index.html: Linked in Tutorial 13 + +Sun Sep 27 18:53:25 1998 Carlos O'Ryan <coryan@cs.wustl.edu> + + * tests/Map_Manager_Test.cpp: + Instead of clearing the capacity and size in the + free_search_structure() method we do it on the close() + method.

ACE_AIO_Accept_Handler + holds the notification pipe and does a read on it to handle the + <ACE_Asynch_Accept::Result> coming from Asynch_Accept_handler. + + THANKS to Doug and Irfan for suggesting this 'notification pipe' based + implementation for AIO_CONTROL_BLOCKS strategy, so that Proactor will + work on platforms where POSIX4 RT_Signals are broken (Solaris 2.6 !) + + Note : Proactor uses AIO_CONTROL_BLOACKS strategy by default on + POSIX4 platforms. Call the constructor with RT_SIGNALS to enable + Real Time singal implementation. + + This should become very easier when we finish organizing these + files according to the Bridge pattern. + +Fri Sep 25 12:40:45 1998 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/config-sunos5.{5,6}.h: removed #define/#undef of + ACE_THR_PRI_FIFO_DEF.

Thanks + to Ossama for reporting this. + + * ace/ACE.cpp (set_handle_limit): on platforms with + ACE_LACKS_RLIMIT or ! RLIMIT_NOFILE, don't use + ACE_NOTSUP_RETURN if the new_limit is <= the cur_limit. + On those platforms, the limit can't be changed anyways, + and the request was _not_ to increase the limit.

EINTR is from LynxOS. + Thanks to David Levine for this fix. + + * tests/Semaphore_Test.cpp: Remove the assertion that a timed out + semaphore will return EINTR for ACE_HAS_PTHREADS_DRAFT4. All + platforms expect ETIME, which is normalized in + ACE_OS::cond_timedwait. + +Thu Sep 24 22:31:30 1998 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/OS.h: hard-coded the ACE_THR_PRI_* values on suns. + SunOS 5.6 could use sched_get_priority_min/max () for FIFO + and RR. But for OTHER, it returns negative values, which + can't be used. And, sched_get_priority_min/max () aren't + supported in SunOS 5.5.1. It would really be helpful + if SunOS defined PRI_FIFO_MIN, etc., in sched.h, but + it doesn't, probably because its process scheduling is + so flexible. Thanks to Russ Noseworthy + <rnosewor@objectsciences.com> for helping to figure this + out. + +Thu Sep 24 17:54:26 1998 Carlos O'Ryan <coryan@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/Asynch_IO.cpp: + Removed duplicate instantiation of a template, IRIX does not + like this.

Template typedefs in Strategies_T.cpp + broke the VC4.2 compiler. Therefore, ACE_HAS_TEMPLATE_TYPEDEFS + was deprecated for VC4.1 and VC4.2. I also checked VC5.0 and it + didn't work. Therefore, for the time being, none of the VC + compilers support ACE_HAS_TEMPLATE_TYPEDEFS. I didn't try + VC6.0. + + * ace/Strategies_T.cpp (check_hint_i ): Changed the signature so + that it is identical to find_or_create_svc_handler_i(). For + some strange freakin reason, the VC4.2 could not gork + check_hint_i() but was able to gork + find_or_create_svc_handler_i. + + * ace/ACE_Library.mdp: Added Select_Reactor_Base.cpp and + Container.cpp to make ACE build with VC4.2. + +Thu Sep 24 13:30:00 CDT 1998 Chris Gill <cdgill@cs.wustl.edu> + + * examples/Bounded_Packet_Relay/README + examples/Bounded_Packet_Relay/Bounded_Packet_Relay.{dsp,dsw} + + Updated README, added in MSVC++ project, workspace files. + +Thu Sep 24 12:48:58 1998 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/Containers_T.cpp (ACE_{Bounded,Fixed}_Set_Iterator::done), + ace/Map_Manager.cpp (ACE_Map_Iterator_Base::done): + added ACE_CAST_CONST to the static cast. Thanks to Ossama for + reporting a compilation failure on Sun C++ 4.2/Solaris 2.6 + without it. + + * ace/High_Res_Timer.cpp (global_scale_factor): on Linux, + only use BogoMips if the CPU is an alpha. It would also + work directly on Pentium Pro, but not other Pentiums. With + a little effort, it could be made to work there, see the + BogoMips mini-HOWTO. Thanks to Ossama for enlightening me + on this corner of Linux. + + * tests/Upgradable_RW_Test.cpp (main): delete dynamically + allocated reader_tasks and writer_tasks, and arrays, at end of test. + +Thu Sep 24 09:17:32 1998 Steve Huston <shuston@riverace.com> + + * ace/Containers_T.h: Added #include "ace/Containers.h" - AIX xlC + needs this when instantiating templates. + + * ace/Dirent.cpp: Do the HP check using only compiler-defined + preprocessor macros since config.h isn't included. + + * ace/OS.i: Fixed comments that referenced DCE threads. + Changed readdir_r #ifdefs to handle pthreads drafts 4 and 6 + the same, and split HP-UX 10.x off as a non-conformant player. + Thanks to David Levine for sorting this out with LynxOS. + + * ace/Thread_Manager.cpp: Changed occurrences of + ACE_HAS_DCE_DRAFT4_THREADS to ACE_HAS_PTHREADS_DRAFT4. Corrected + a call to pthread_detach. Changed a couple of calls to + pthread_detach on HP-UX 10.x to duplicate the thread handle before + the call because pthread_detach on HP-UX 10.x clears the handle + and it was still needed. + On AIX, xlC doesn't match the call to + ACE_Thread::join(ACE_hthread_t, void ** = 0) correctly when the + second arg is specified.

Also + ~ACE_Service_Type() now calls this->fini(). + + * ace/Svc_Handler: + * ace/Dynamic: + + Patrick J. McNerthney <pat@cartia.com> described this problem: + ________________________________________ + + ACE_Svc_Handler creates an + ACE_TSS_Singleton<ACE_Dynamic,ACE_SYNCH_NULL_MUTEX> singleton + object to determine if the ACE_Svc_Handler is a dynamically + created object or not. ACE_TSS_Singleton declares the internal + single instance of the ACE_Dynamic object as a + ACE_TSS<ACE_Dynamic> data type. + + The first time this object is "referenced", + ACE_TSS<ACE_Dynamic>::ts_init() is called, which in turn calls + ACE_Thread::keycreate and registers + ACE_TSS<ACE_Dynamic>::cleanup with it. Since ACE_TSS is a + template class, the vtable and the code of this object resides + in the dynamically loaded service DLL. + + During termination, the Object Manager closes down the Service + Configurator, causing all services to be shutdown, and their + DLLs are unloaded. + + The Object Manager then calls ACE_OS::cleanup_tss which attempts + to call the above registered ACE_TSS<ACE_Dynamic>::cleanup + method. Since the DLL has already been unloaded, the + application faults trying to access the vtable. + ________________________________________ + + My earlier solution addressed this problem but only in + ~Object_Manager(), i.e., at the end of the application, by + carefully ordering the cleanup of singletons, tss, and the + unlinking of libraries. To solve this more generically and to + address this problem when DLLs are unlinked arbitrarily (and not + only at the end of applications), I moved the typedef of + ACE_TSS_Singleton<ACE_Dynamic> from Svc_Handler.h to + Dynamic.h. Then the access to this singleton was changed from + DYNAMIC::instance() to ACE_Dynamic::instance(). + + This will force the generation of the code for this class to be + in the ACE library rather than in a user's DLL. Hence when TSS + cleanup hooks and Object Manager are trying to clean this object + up from ~Object_Manager, it won't crash as the code for this + class is in ACE and not in the unlinked DLL. + + This issue raised a couple of interesting observations about + ACE_Singleton and ACE_TSS_Singleton and DLLs: + + It is ok to use ACE_Singleton and ACE_TSS_Singleton in DLLs that + are going to be unlinked at the end of the program. For DLLs + that may get unlinked *before* the end of the program, they must + not use ACE_Singleton or ACE_TSS_Singleton. ACE_Singleton + registers with the Object_Manager for deletion and therefore is + accessed at the end of the application. ACE_TSS_Singleton is + very similar to ACE_Singleton. Moreover, it uses tss cleanup + hooks to clean up the thread specific storage. Therefore, if + the DLL lives shorter than the thread and/or the application, it + must *not* use ACE_Singleton and ACE_TSS_Singleton. + + This motivates the need for ACE_DLL_Singleton<T>. As usual, + contributions to ACE are always welcome ;-) Many, many thanks to + Patrick J. McNerthney <pat@cartia.com> for all his help! + +Sat Aug 29 19:22:22 1998 Douglas C.

The only downside to this order of things is that + Log_Msg will also get cleaned up by TSS cleanup, and we need to + make sure that we do not access Log_Msg after TSS cleanup. + + For this to work, we need to make sure of two things: user code + is not called and ACE does not use Log_Msg after this after TSS + resources have been cleaned up.

All at_exit methods and thr_self + don't really need to hold Thread_Manager's lock. + + Notice that after the newly spawned thread enters the + ACE_Thread_Adapter::invoke routine, we can safely manipulate its + Thread_Deacriptor because it has been registered properly.

This + is usually used when using ACE with MFC/Windows programs. + Because the main function is defined by MFC/Windows libraries, + ACE has no way to instantiate object manager in these programs. + For programs using MFC, a good place to instantiate Object + Manger will be to define ACE_Object_Manager a member of + CApplication derived classes so it gets instantiated/destructed + properly. + + * ace/config-win32.h: Revised the comment about + ACE_HAS_NONSTATIC_OBJECT_MANAGER + +Wed Aug 19 17:15:00 1998 Douglas C.

Now all code must + declare the pthreads draft, and handle any platform/implementation + oddities as such. + As time goes on, I will remove more of the ACE_HAS_... and ACE_LACKS... + things that are actually changes with the pthreads drafts. + I tested these on Solaris 2.5.1 (CC), HP-UX 10.20 and 11.00, AIX 4.2.1, + and sanity-tested on NT/MSVC (though no changes affected the WTHREADS + parts). + + * ace/README: Clarified use of Pthreads macros. + + * ace/config-hpux-10.x.h: + * ace/config-lynxos.h: + * ace/config-osf1-3.2.h: + * ace/config-osf1-4.0.h: + Changed from DCE threads to ACE_HAS_PTHREADS_DRAFT4. + + * ace/config-fsu-pthread.h: + * ace/config-m88k.h: + * ace/config-mvs.h: Added ACE_HAS_PTHREADS_DRAFT6. + + * ace/config-aix-4.1.x.h: + * ace/config-aix-4.2.x.h: Added ACE_HAS_PTHREADS_DRAFT7. + + * ace/config-chorus.h: + * ace/config-dgux-4.x-ghs.h: + * ace/config-hpux11.h: + * ace/config-irix6.x-g++.h: + * ace/config-irix6.x-sgic++.h: + * ace/config-linux-lxpthreads.h: + * ace/config-linux-pthread.h: + * ace/config-mit-pthread.h: + * ace/config-osf1-4.0.h: + * ace/config-sco-5.0.0-mit-pthread.h: + * ace/config-sunos-5.5.h: (also remove ACE_HAS_STHREADS if + _POSIX_PTHREAD_SEMANTICS is defined by user). + * ace/config-sunos5.6.h: + + Changed to / added ACE_HAS_PTHREADS_STD. + + * ace/config-hpux-10.x-g++.h: Changed over to use the base file + config-hpux-10.x.h. + + * ace/OS.h: + * ace/OS.i: + * ace/OS.cpp: + Unified the compile ifdefs for pthreads around ACE_HAS_PTHREADS, + ACE_HAS_PTHREADS_DRAFT{4, 6, 7} and ACE_HAS_PTHREADS_STD. + Removed all use of ACE_HAS_DCETHREADS; put in platform-specific + settings where needed. + + * ace/Sched_Params.cpp: + * ace/Synch.cpp: Removed the use of ACE_HAS_DCETHREADS. + +Mon Aug 17 12:10:54 1998 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/ace_{dll,lib}.dsp: Removed Message_Queue_T.cpp from and included + Message_Queue.cpp into source files that get build. Hmm, I + thought I made this change long ago. + + * ace/ace_ce_dll.dsp: Changed the DLL output directories for some + configurations. + +Mon Aug 17 11:25:18 1998 Carlos O'Ryan <coryan@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/Strategies_T.h: + In some platforms we need to include "ace/Thread_Manager.h" + because its definition is used in the inline methods of some + templates, and a few platform actually check the syntax of + template code, even if the template is not used. + +Mon Aug 17 10:06:01 1998 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> + + * netsvcs/lib/Server_Logging_Handler_T.cpp: replaced + #include <string.h> with #include "ace/OS.h", so that + _REENTRANT gets defined with g++. + + * apps/Gateway/Peer/Peer.{h,cpp} (Peer_Connector::open): added + (unused) arguments to this function. They are only provided to + avoid a compiler warning about hiding the virtual function + ACE_Connector<Peer_Handler, ACE_SOCK_CONNECTOR>::open (ACE_Reactor *, + int). + + * tests/Dynamic_Priority_Test.cpp (run_performance_test): + added delete of time_offsets array. The test Purifies + cleanly now. + +Mon Aug 17 00:05:02 1998 Irfan Pyarali <irfan@cs.wustl.edu> + + * examples/Reactor/ReactorEx/test_removals.cpp (main): Fixed + signed/unsigned mismatch. + + * examples/Reactor/ReactorEx/test_talker.cpp (handle_read_stream): + Fixed incorrect unary minus operator application. + +Sun Aug 16 20:57:12 1998 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/OS.i (dlerror): Fixed a typo.

If shl_unload is called, it unloads the library, regardless of + the reference count. This has the affect of never unloading a + library that's been loaded more than once, until the OS unloads it + at process run-down. Better than invalidating references to it, + though. The wonder of wrappers at work for you... + +Fri Aug 14 10:01:05 1998 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/Basic_Types.h (ACE_UINT64_DBLCAST_ADAPTER): with + ACE_LACKS_LONGLONG_T, only use low 32 bits. We could devise + a conversion from ACE_U_LongLong to double that uses all + 64 bits; but, it's probably easier for users to upgrade + their hardware and/or compilers to ones that support 64 + bit ints :-) + +Thu Aug 13 19:29:33 1998 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/Message_Queue_T.i: Changed the is_empty_i() method to check + if this->tail_ == 0 rather than this->cur_bytes_ <= 0 && + this->cur_count_ <= 0. Thanks to Dirk Broer + <Dirk.Broer@gsfc.nasa.gov> for suggesting this. + +Thu Aug 13 17:45:00 1998 Chris Gill <cdgill@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/Basic_Types.h: added ACE_UINT64_DBLCAST_ADAPTER macro + to patch unimplemented UINT64 to double casts + +Thu Aug 13 13:34:52 1998 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> + + * os-patches/linux-patches.html: the af_inet.c patch is only + needed through Linux kernel version 2.0.34. + + * tests/Conn_Test.cpp: disabled ACE_Hash_Addr template + specialization on non-egcs g++. + + * tests/Process_Strategy_Test.{h,cpp} (~Process_Strategy): + added an explicit destructor. g++ 2.7.2.3 got very + confused ("Internal compiler error") without it, apparently + when generating it implicitly. + + * tests/ MsgQueue_Notifications_Test.cpp (producer): removed + unused local "result". + +Wed Aug 12 22:45:50 1998 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu> + + * tests/MsgQueue_Notifications_Test.cpp: Added an explicit + template instantiation. + +Wed Aug 12 21:32:05 1998 Carlos O'Ryan <coryan@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/Message_Block.h: + * ace/Message_Block.i: + * ace/Message_Block.cpp: + Enabled the base() method, it replaces the internal buffer and + resets the Message_Block. There were other ways to do this (like + calling data_block->base()), but some users find it convenient. + I also modified the Data_Block::base() method to release any + memory held by the class before the method is called. Thanks to + Peter.Gorgia@libnet.com for pointing this out. + +Wed Aug 12 17:43:33 1998 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu> + + * tests/MsgQueue_Notifications_Test.cpp: The watermark test which + uses cv's signaling to notify other threads is also merged into + this file. + + * tests/MsgQueue_Water_Mark_Test.{dsp,cpp}: Removed. + +Wed Aug 12 17:12:57 1998 Darrell Brunsch <brunsch@cs.wustl.edu> + + * APC.DSP: + * Abondoned.dsp: + * Console_Input.dsp: + * Directory_Changes.dsp: + * Exceptions.dsp: + * Multithreading.dsp: + * Network_Events.dsp: + * Prerun_State_Changes.dsp: + * Registration.dsp: + * Registry_Changes.dsp: + * Removals.dsp: + * Talker.dsp: + * Timeouts.dsp: + * Window_Messages.dsp: + * test_abandoned.cpp: + * test_apc.cpp: + * test_window_messages.cpp: + Added updated versions of project files (with correct include + directories).

Thanks to Jeff Hellzen <JHellzen@hwdcsaws.cahwnet.gov> + for submitting these changes. + +Wed Aug 12 16:16:38 1998 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu> + + * tests/MsgQueue_Notifications_Test.cpp: Since this test doesn't + use threads at all, I removed the #if ACE_HAS_THREADS macro. + +Wed Aug 12 14:57:51 1998 Jonathan Biggar <jon@floorboard.com> + + * ace/config-sunos5.5.h: wrapped thread-related defines with + "#ifdef _REENTRANT". + + * include/makeinclude/platform_sunos5_sunc++.GNU,wrapper_macros.GNU, + ACE-INSTALL.html: added support for "threads" make option. + +Wed Aug 12 02:06:02 1998 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu> + + * tests/test_config.h (ACE_Test_Output): It seemed like redirecting + the Log_Msg output back to stderr in close was a bit too early + and some messages popped out after some tests ran successfully. + Moved the redirecting code into the destructor. + +Tue Aug 11 22:47:49 1998 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/TP_Reactor.cpp (dispatch_io_set): added + ACE_UNUSED_ARG (ready_mask). + + * tests/test_config.h: added + ACE_Singleton<ACE_Test_Output, ACE_Null_Mutex> template + instantiation. This shouldn't be done in a header, and + I wouldn't be surprised if it breaks somewhere. But, we + don't have any other need for a .cpp file to link into all tests. + +Tue Aug 11 17:30:32 1998 Steve Huston <shuston@riverace.com> + + * tests/test_config.h: Fixed ACE_Test_Output to get torn down clean + in all cases by changing it from a static to an ACE_Singleton. + Re-enabled it for Win32, non-WinCE. + +Tue Aug 11 15:51:47 1998 Irfan Pyarali <irfan@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/XtReactor.h (ACE_XtReactor): Changed the constructor so that + the XtAppContext can be passed later. This scheme allows for a + default constructor. Thanks to J-M Strauss + <strauss@limeil.cea.fr> for suggesting this. + +Tue Aug 11 12:35:10 1998 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/OS.i (fopen): On WinCE, reset the handle to 0 if CreateFile + fails so we can detect errors when using the emulated FILE + pointer on CE. + + * tests/test_config.h (~ACE_Test_Output): Changed !defined + (ACE_HAS_WINCE) to !defined (ACE_WIN32). When using non-static + object manager, the singleton ACE_Log_Msg may no longer exist + here and the reseting here just causes access violations. Other + platforms which use non-static might suffer the same sympton. + +Tue Aug 11 12:29:03 1998 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> + + * os-patches/linux-patches.html: the gas patch on alphas + isn't necessary with binutils-2.9.1. + +Tue Aug 11 12:23:09 1998 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/ARGV.{h,cpp}: Made a series of changes to make the file CE + friendly. + + * ace/Message_Queue_T.cpp: Adjusted the indentation. + +Tue Aug 11 02:06:55 1998 Irfan Pyarali <irfan@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/WFMO_Reactor.cpp (dispatch_handles): Because dispatch_index + is absolute, nCount should be set to + (max_handlep1 - dispatch_index) instead of (nCount - + dispatch_index). Thanks to Alberto Villarica + <Alberto.Villarica.rav@nt.com> for pointing this out. + +Mon Aug 10 20:12:21 1998 Steve Huston <shuston@riverace.com> + + * ace/Log_Msg.cpp: On HP-UX 10.x, display thread's readable number + rather than an int represenation of a pointer. + + * tests/test_config.h (ACE_Test_Output): When destroying + ACE_Test_Output, make sure to remove all traces of it from + ACE_Log_Msg instance. + + * tests/Dynamic_Priority_Test.cpp: Don't try to set process-wide + scheduling if it's not supported on the platform. + + * tests/Thread_Manager_Test.cpp: Don't do a kill on pthreads draft + 4 platforms. This is a NOP for now - it will make a difference when + I check in more threads-related changes later. + +Mon Aug 10 10:35:26 1998 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu> + + * Added the ACE-subsets.html file to the ACE directory so that + we can all modify it. + +Mon Aug 10 10:29:29 1998 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/OS.i (shm_open): There's no need to mess with the security + attribute here. + +Mon Aug 10 01:09:05 1998 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/OS.{h,i}: Added a new function + "default_win32_security_attributes" to return the defualt + security setting of kernel objects. By default, this function + is a no-op. You must define + ACE_DEFINES_DEFAULT_WIN32_SECURITY_ATTRIBUTES for this function + to return a SECURITY_ATTRIBUTES object that has no access + restriction. + + Modified all functions that use Win32 kernel objects to invoke + this new function to get the appropriate security attributes. + Thanks to Ivan Murphy <Ivan.Murphy@med.siemens.de> for + suggesting this. + + +Sun Aug 09 23:26:39 1998 Douglas C.

Same + thing for ACE_Write_Guard and ACE_Read_Guard. + +Fri Aug 7 23:18:53 1998 Carlos O'Ryan <coryan@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/config-sunos5.5.h: + Updated the new ACE_CC_NAME macros (and friends) so they work + with egcs (and hopefully g++). + + * tests/MT_SOCK_Test.cpp: + Removed double comma in function call. + +Fri Aug 7 21:39:26 1998 Carlos O'Ryan <coryan@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/INET_Addr.cpp: + Compare the fields of in_addr instead of calling memcmp. + + * ace/Message_Block.cpp: + * ace/Message_Block.h: + * ace/Message_Block.i: + The Message_Block can receive an allocator for the data block, + so instead of creating them on the heap they can be allocated + from a TSS allocator or other memory pool.

The idea is to use this when posting + to the ACE mailing list. + + * ace/ACE.h: + * ace/ACE.cpp: + Added static methods to retrieve compiler information (name, major + version, minro version, beta version). + + * ace/config-sunos5.5.h: + Defined the compiler information macros for this platform. + + * bin/Makefile: + Modified the Makefile to support multiple binaries in the + directory (according to tests/Makefile). + + * bin/clone.cpp: + Added RCS Id. + +Fri Aug 7 12:46:42 1998 Douglas C.

Also inlined a shit + load of small methods. + + * ace/Strategies_T.cpp (connect_svc_handler): If <sh> is not + connected to the correct address or is busy, we will not use it. + Therefore we need to set it to zero. + + * ace/Synch: Added template specializations for + ACE_Guard<ACE_Null_Mutex>, ACE_Write_Guard<ACE_Null_Mutex>, and + ACE_Read_Guard<ACE_Null_Mutex>. + +Thu Aug 06 14:59:22 1998 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/Thread_Manager.cpp: Updated all uses of cancel_thr for the + various apply*() methods so that they pass along the + async_cancel flag. + + * ace/Thread_Manager.cpp: Added a new ARG to the ACE_EXECUTE_OP + macro. Believe it or not, this change actually reduced the + amount of special-case code because we can now treat kill_thr() + just like the other *_thr() methods. Irfan was amazed ;-). + + * ace/Thread_Manager: Added a new flag called "async_cancel" to + all the Thread Manager cancel*() methods. This flag is disabled + by default (hence, there are no changes to the ACE Thread + Manager semantics).

We would either find them a non-busy one, or will + create a new one. + + Unfortunately, the svc_handler lookup was taking too long. + Therefore, the following change was made to the + connect_svc_handler algorithm: the user is now allowed to pass + in the svc_handler that they used last as a "hint". The + algorithm first checks to see if the "hint" svc_handler is + connected to the correct address and is recyclable. If it is, + then it recycles the "hint" svc_handler and gives it back to the + user. This should improve the lookups in most cases. + + * ace/Svc_Handler.cpp (recycling_act): Added accessor to get the + <recycling_act_>. + + * tests/Conn_Test.cpp (idle): Added method so that we can tell + when a Svc_Handler is being set to idle.

Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/Service_Manager: Cleaned up the documentation and formatting + a bit. + + * ace/Message_Queue_T.i: Changed the computation of is_empty_i() + so that it's + + return this->cur_bytes_ <= this->low_water_mark_ || this->cur_count_ <= 0; + + i.e., we use an || rather than a &&. Thanks to Umar for + reporting this. + + * ace/Message_Queue_T.i: Changed the computation of is_empty_i() so + that it doesn't consider the queue to be empty unless the + cur_bytes_ <= the low_water_mark_ (which defaults to 0 so that + no existing code is affected).

This is more flexible and + allows the user to redefine some of the ACE configuration + parameters. + + * ace/config-linux-common.h: + As an example of the above, now the user can #define + ACE_HAS_IP_MULTICAST in his config.h file to 0, and he won't be + using multicast under linux. This is clearer than having to edit + the config-linux-common.h file, which will now respect the user's + settings (if any).. + +Tue Aug 4 17:39:12 1998 Steve Huston <shuston@riverace.com> + + * ace/ACE_Library.{mak mdp}: Added TP_Reactor.cpp to the project. + + * tests/Aio_Platform_Test.cpp: Don't try to sysconf() for the AIO + values if there's no chance of AIO on the system (_POSIX_ASYNC_IO + not defined at compile time). + + * examples/OS/Process/Process.dsp: Link against ace.lib for Release, + aced.lib for Debug (these were reversed). + +Tue Aug 4 12:09:51 1998 Douglas C.

The last + thread waiting for the token will reset the signal state + (therefore, there's NO cancel_signal_all_threads method.) + (shared_acquire): Return 2 if the token is signaled after + acquiring the token successfully. + (release): If the token is signaled and there's no other thread + waiting to acquire the token, reset the signal state. + + * ace/TP_Reactor.{h,i,cpp} (wakeup_all_threads): Added + implementation for this virtual function. It "signals" the + token threads are waiting on and wake them up by notifying the + reactor. + (handle_events): Check to see if the reactor token is signaled + after acquiring it. If the the token is signaled, it will not + proceed to handle events (by calling select) but instead return + successfully. This allow the thread the chance to check if it's + time to shut down the event loop. + +Mon Aug 3 17:53:48 1998 Gonzalo Diethelm <gonzo@tango.cs.wustl.edu> + + * performance-tests/Makefile: + * performance-tests/Misc/basic_func.cpp: + * performance-tests/Misc/basic_perf.cpp: + * performance-tests/Misc/childbirth_time.cpp: + * performance-tests/Misc/context_switch_time.cpp: + * performance-tests/Misc/preempt.cpp: + * performance-tests/Misc/test_mutex.cpp: + * performance-tests/Misc/test_naming.cpp: + * performance-tests/Misc/test_singleton.cpp: + * performance-tests/Synch-Benchmarks/Benchmark_Base.cpp: + * performance-tests/Synch-Benchmarks/Benchmark_Performance.cpp: + * performance-tests/Synch-Benchmarks/Options.cpp: + * performance-tests/Synch-Benchmarks/Performance_Test.cpp: + * performance-tests/Synch-Benchmarks/condb_test.cpp: + * performance-tests/Synch-Benchmarks/conds_test.cpp: + * performance-tests/Synch-Benchmarks/context_test.cpp: + * performance-tests/Synch-Benchmarks/memory_test.cpp: + * performance-tests/Synch-Benchmarks/mutex_test.cpp: + * performance-tests/Synch-Benchmarks/pipe_proc_test.cpp: + * performance-tests/Synch-Benchmarks/pipe_thr_test.cpp: + * performance-tests/Synch-Benchmarks/recursive_lock_test.cpp: + * performance-tests/Synch-Benchmarks/rwrd_test.cpp: + * performance-tests/Synch-Benchmarks/rwwr_test.cpp: + * performance-tests/Synch-Benchmarks/sema_test.cpp: + * performance-tests/Synch-Benchmarks/synch_driver.cpp: + * performance-tests/Synch-Benchmarks/sysvsema_test.cpp: + * performance-tests/Synch-Benchmarks/token_test.cpp: + * performance-tests/TTCP/ACE-C++/wrapper-new-ttcp.cpp: + * performance-tests/TTCP/C/new-ttcp.cpp: + * performance-tests/TTCP/ORBeline/ttcp_i.cpp: + * performance-tests/TTCP/Orbix/ttcpC.cpp: + * performance-tests/TTCP/Orbix/ttcpS.cpp: + * performance-tests/TTCP/Orbix/ttcp_i.cpp: + * performance-tests/UDP/udp_test.cpp: + Added ACE_RCSID to these files. + +Sun Aug 2 19:43:04 1998 Darrell Brunsch <brunsch@cs.wustl.edu> + + * tests/Reactor_Performance_Test.cpp: Made a change suggested by + Irfan to allow this test to work in Windows 95. + +Sat Aug 1 20:35:32 1998 Douglas C.

Therefore, the flock methods were changed + to use the non-Ex versions on Win95. Thanks to XuYifeng + <xuyf@pop.zg169.net> for pointing this out. + + While making the changes, I found that there were a couple bugs + in the code: (a) the <whence> parameter was being ignored and + (b) the adjustment for <len> == 0 was incorrect. I think I have + fixed both of these also in ACE_OS::adjust_flock_params(). + + One last thing: I changed flock_unlock() to use UnLockFile() + instead of UnLockFileEx(). UnLockFileEx() is also not supported + on Win95. Hopefully, it is ok to lock with LockFileEx() and + unlock with UnLockFile() instead of UnLockFileEx(). + + * ace/OS.cpp (pread): Changed bytes_written to bytes_read. + +Fri Jul 31 23:47:50 1998 Carlos O'Ryan <coryan@cs.wustl.edu> + + * bin/auto_compile: + We now run several on-button tests in TAO, though it is still + hard to detect any errors. + +Fri Jul 31 21:33:22 1998 Douglas C.

This is not true on Windows95. + Therefore, code had to be added to make sure that on + Windows95, WriteFile and ReadFile were called without an + OVERLAPPED struct. + + - We were assuming that if we used the OVERLAPPED struct, the + file pointer would not move. It turns out that the OVERLAPPED + struct has nothing with whether the file pointer moves or not. + It has to do with whether the file was opened with + FILE_FLAG_OVERLAPPED or not. Since it is not possible to + figure whether the file handle we got was opened with this + flag or not, we have to program defensively and reset the file + pointer in any case. + + - Also the !ACE_HAS_P_READ_WRITE implementation was not + restoring the file pointer to its original position.

Major framwork designed by + Irfan. Here's his changelog: + + * ace/TP_Reactor.h (ACE_TP_Reactor): One of the short comings of + the Select_Reactor in ACE was that it did not support a thread + pool based event dispatching model, similar to the one in + WFMO_Reactor. In Select_Reactor, only thread can be blocked + in handle_events() at any given time. + + A new Reactor has been added to ACE that removes this + short-coming. TP_Reactor is a specialization of Select + Reactor to support thread-pool based event dispatching. This + Reactor takes advantage of the fact that events reported by + select() are persistent if not acted upon immediately. It + works by remembering the event handler that just got + activated, releasing the internal lock (so that some other + thread can start waiting in the event loop) and then + dispatching the event handler outside the context of the + Reactor lock. + + This Reactor is best suited for situations when the callbacks + to event handlers can take arbitrarily long and/or a number of + threads are available to run the event loops. + + Note that callback code in Event Handlers + (e.g. Event_Handler::handle_input) does not have to be + modified or made thread-safe for this Reactor. This is + because an activated Event Handler is suspended in the Reactor + before the upcall is made and resumed after the upcall + completes. Therefore, one Event Handler cannot be called by + multiple threads simultaneously. + + * ace/Reactor.cpp (ACE_Reactor): + ACE_USE_TP_REACTOR_FOR_REACTOR_IMPL can be used to make the + TP_Reactor the default Reactor implementation that will be + used by ACE_Reactor. + + I still need to add the reliable shutdown method and a + TP_Reactor_Test. + + * ace/Select_Reactor.{h,i,cpp} (renew): Moved decision of renew + supression from ACE_Select_Reactor_Notify::handle_input to this + method, which is a more appropriate place. + + * ace/Token.h (ACE_Token): Added more comprehensive comments about + the recent changes of reader/writer semantic. + +Tue Jul 28 12:36:18 1998 Irfan Pyarali <irfan@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/Service_Config.cpp (~ACE_Service_Config): Removed the call + to ACE_Service_Config::close () from the destructor. This will + be called by the Object Manager upon destruction. + +Tue Jul 28 11:34:15 1998 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/OS.{h,i} (strpbrk): Added a const wchar_t version of this + function.

Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/Thread_Manager.cpp (exit): only declare local close_handle + if ACE_USE_ONE_SHOT_AT_THREAD_EXIT.

If you want to maintain previous compatibility use + ACE_USE_ONE_SHOT_AT_THREAD_EXIT. The new code maintaing + compatibility with the old code, ACE_Task::svc_run has not been + altered. + + We resolve a problem with ACE_TSS_cleanup, some platform + using Thread_Manager could be experimenting memory corruption because + of ACE_TSS_cleanup was being invoked before Thread_Manager exit + code. Now, if ACE_TSS_cleanup is called before of Thread_Manager + exit code, ACE_TSS_cleanup delegate ACE_Log_Msg delete instance + to Thread_Descriptor. + + Really, at_exit code is implemented in ACE_Thread_Descriptor, I + strongly recommend use at_exit code from Thread_Descriptor, + however in ACE_Thread_Manager we provide at_exit hook. + + Use of at_exit(void* object,ACE_CLEANUP_FUNC cleanup_hook,void* + param) is deprecated. We maitain it for compatibility and it + will be forever, however if you want implement new at_exit hook, + look into Thread_Manager.h and specialize ACE_At_Thread_Exit + class for your needs. + + If you want to allocate an ACE_At_Thread_Exit hook in stack, you + can do it. The at_exit code use at_exit overloading to take care + of this. Equally dynamic creation of at_exit hook is supported + too. + +Mon Jul 27 14:25:15 1998 Chris Gill <cdgill@cs.wustl.edu> + + * tests/Dynamic_Priority_Test.cpp: Changed C-Style casts to + ACE_static_casts, documented argument structure members + +Mon Jul 27 12:23:55 1998 Douglas C.

(E.g., aced.dll + v.s. ace.dll.) This was causing some problem in managing the + svc.conf files because we need to link the matching DLL with the + executables regarding of how they get compiled. + + I modified the ldfind so that when a debug version ACE is + searching for a DLL file, it will first try to find the debug + version of that DLL by suffixing the name with 'd'. If it can't + be found, it then searches for the name specified. The release + version doesn't try to do this. Now, we can specify only the + "normal" dll names in svc.conf files and ACE can pick up the + right dlls for you without changing svc.conf files. However, + you need to follow the Win32 DLL naming convention as described + above. + + I don't expect this feature to cause any backward compatibility + problem. However, if in the rare event, it does cause you + problem, you can disable it by defining + ACE_DISABLE_DEBUG_DLL_CHECK in your config.h file. Notice that + this change only affects Win32 platforms. + +Thu Jul 16 08:55:48 1998 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/Dynamic_Service.cpp (instance): removed const-ness + from local void * obj, because the function return value + isn't const.

Now, it is set to "changed" (=1) + after each run of the event loop. This fixed a nested + upcalls bug, which was caused by overwriting this + flag each time entering the event loop. So that, + when poping one level of the handle_events call + stack information was lost about changes.

The base class (ACE_Scheduling_Strategy) was + keeping a pointer to the SVC_HANDLER in order to enable the + derived classes to get to the Reactor and Thread Manager. Also, + if the user did not pass in an instance of SVC_HANDLER, one was + created dynamically ;-( Another problem was that the Reactor + field was set on the SVC_HANDLER, but the SVC_HANDLER was never + registered with the Reactor. So when the SVC_HANDLER was + deleted, it tried to remove itself from a potentially + non-existent Reactor. + + Solution: Removed scheduler_ as protected member of the base + class. Added thr_mgr_ to ACE_Schedule_All_Threaded_Strategy and + reactor_ to ACE_Schedule_All_Reactive_Strategy.

David pointed out that + without this flag, size of ACE increases even when time probes + are not being used. Therefore, users must compile ACE with + this flag defined if they want to use time probes. This can + be achieved by doing one of the following: + + . Use make probe = 1, if you are using the make utility. + + . Define ACE_COMPILE_TIMEPROBES in config.h + + . Define ACE_COMPILE_TIMEPROBES in the VC project file. + + . Other regular methods will also work. + + It is not necessary to define ACE_COMPILE_TIMEPROBES when + using time probes, you simply need ACE_ENABLE_TIMEPROBES. You + can use the ACE_TIMEPROBE_* macros to program the time probes, + and use the ACE_ENABLE_TIMEPROBE to enable the time probes. + If you define ACE_ENABLE_TIMEPROBE in your code, but forget to + compile ACE with ACE_COMPILE_TIMEPROBES, you will end up with + linker errors. + + Remember that ACE_COMPILE_TIMEPROBES means that the ACE + library will contain code for time probes. This is only + useful when compiling ACE. ACE_ENABLE_TIMEPROBES means that + the ACE_TIMEPROBE_* macros should spring to life. + + - Added inclusion of OS.h. This way the ACE_COMPILE_TIMEPROBES + can be specified in the config file. + + * include/makeinclude/wrapper_macros.GNU: probe = 1 no longer + means ACE_ENABLE_TIMEPROBE. It only means + ACE_COMPILE_TIMEPROBES. This was changed because defining + ACE_ENABLE_TIMEPROBE here is too broad. ACE_ENABLE_TIMEPROBE is + cleverly designed so that it allows only some time probes to be + enabled (where ACE_ENABLE_TIMEPROBE is defined), while others to + be disabled (where ACE_ENABLE_TIMEPROBE is not defined). + + Example: IDL_Cubit time probes can be enabled without enabling + TAO time probes. Or TAO time probes can be enabled without + enabling IDL_Cubit time probes. TAO time probes are controlled + through TAO/tao/Timeprobes.h. + + * tests/Timeprobe_Test.cpp: + + - Defining ACE_ENABLE_TIMEPROBES is not forced. Users can + uncomment this at the top of the file. This relieves us from + trying to include the symbols of ACE_Timeprobes from ACE if + ACE was compiled without using ACE_COMPILE_TIMEPROBES (the + #include ace/Timeprobe.cpp trick did not work on all 8 + different ways of compiling ACE on NT). + + - Made the registration of the description arrays similar to the + real use cases (in TAO). + + - Introduced enums and took the magic numbers out. + +Fri Jun 26 20:37:06 1998 Matthew J Braun <mjb2@cec.wustl.edu> + * tests/Logger/clnt.h + * tests/Logger/clnt.cpp + * tests/Logger/svr.cpp + * orbsvcs/orbsvcs/Log/Logger_i.h + * orbsvcs/orbsvcs/Log/Logger_i.cpp + * orbsvcs/orbsvcs/Logger.idl + + The current status of this is incomplete.

ACE_Recyclable adds a recyclable flag + to the class it is instantiated with. ACE_Hash_Recyclable + inherits from ACE_Recyclable and forces the class it is + instantiated with to have a hash() method. + + Also, the Hash_Addr was fixed so that it does not have the + recyclable flag anymore, since the Hash_Addr can be used even + when there is no recycling. + + Also updated the ACE_Cached_Connect_Strategy to reflect these + changes. + + * tests/Conn_Test.cpp: Fixed the template instantiations in lieu + of the changes to Hash_Addr. + +Wed Jun 10 11:05:39 1998 David L.

Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> + + * tests/Timeprobe_Test.cpp: removed trailing ; from template + instantation pragmas. + + * tests/Conn_Test.cpp,MM_Shared_Memory_Test.cpp, + Priority_Reactor_Test.cpp,SOCK_Test.cpp: replaced + !defined (ACE_WIN32) && !defined (VXWORKS) with + !defined (ACE_LACKS_FORK). + +Sun May 31 23:05:10 1998 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ACE-INSTALL.html,include/makeinclude/wrapper_macros.GNU: + added repo=1 make option support. It only helps when + building ACE applications. ACE and TAO still use explicit + instantiation when building their libraries, because it's + easiest to avoid link collisions that way.

This + hack could cause memory leaks, though currently ACE_DES_FREE_TEMPLATE + is only used to call empty, non-virtual destructors (in + Containers.cpp, Hash_Map_Manager.cpp, and Map_Manager.cpp). + Also, added ACE_DES_FREE_TEMPLATE2 macro for use with two + template arguments. There's got to be a better way. + + * include/makeinclude/platform_lynxos.GNU: added LynxOS Version 3.0.0 + support. It's optional at this point: add VERSION=3.0.0 to your + make invocation to enable. Disabled -Wall with LynxOS 3.0.0. + Enabled optimization. + +Thu May 28 07:47:41 1998 Steve Huston <shuston@riverace.com> + + * tests/SOCK_Connector_Test.cpp: Changed the "should succeed" test + from port 25 (smtp) to 7 (echo) to try and get a higher success + rate. Thanks to David Levine for this suggestion. + +Wed May 27 13:45:24 1998 Steve Huston <shuston@riverace.com> + + * ace/ACE.cpp (handle_timed_complete): Fixed problem where + successful connect was being reported as a failure (P90). + + * tests/SOCK_Connector_Test.cpp: Added a test for a successful + non-blocking connect (tests fix from above). + +Wed May 27 07:04:42 1998 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/Service_Config.cpp: default debug_ to 1 instead + of 0. And the -d option now disables debug messages, + instead of enabling them. Thanks to Irfan for reporting + that LM_DEBUG messages were lost without this fix. + + * ace/High_Res_Timer (calibrate): added calibrate () method + to calculate the global scale factor on Pentiums. It's + called by the constructor for the first instantiation + in a process. (On WIN32, get_registry_scale_factor () is + called instead of calibrate ().) + + * ace/Stats.cpp (sample): continue aggregating data even + if there is overflow. This allows, e.g., a mean to be + calculated even if the standard deviation calculation overflow. + + * performance-tests/Misc/context_switch_time.cpp: don't run the + Yield_Test on VxWorks because it takes too long. + + * ace/High_Res_Timer.*: moved calibration from constructor to + global_scale_factor () accessor. + + * ace/Timeprobe.cpp: no longer need to explicitly calibrate the + High_Res_Timer. + +Tue May 26 22:25:18 1998 Stephen Coy <stevec@wsa.com.au> + + * ace/Log_Msg.{h,cpp},Service_Config.cpp: added support for + -d in Service_Config files to enable/disable LM_DEBUG messages. + +Tue May 26 14:53:21 1998 Steve Huston <shuston@riverace.com> + + * ace/SOCK_Dgram_Mcast.cpp (subscribe): Fixed use of uninitialized + variable, nr_subscribed.

Multiple maps can be used to chunk up the time + probes. Each one can be added by calling event_descriptions(). + Different tables are used internally by consulting the + minimum_id for each table. It is up to the user to make sure + that multiple tables do not share the same event id range. + +Sat May 23 21:52:49 1998 Carlos O'Ryan <coryan@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/Message_Block.h: + * ace/Message_Block.i: + The rd_ptr() and wr_ptr() are const methods now. + +Sat May 23 00:18:58 1998 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/ace_ce_dll.dsp: Updated settings for MIPS CPU. + + * tests/WinCE/*.dsp: Updated settings for MIPS CPU. + +Fri May 22 16:00:03 1998 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu> + + * tests/MT_SOCK_Test.cpp (spawn): We must check for !defined + (ACE_LACKS_FORK) rather test for VxWorks or Win32. Thanks to + Steven Coy for reporting this. + +Fri May 22 20:01:40 1998 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/OS.h: moved ACE_IO_Vector declaration ahead of OS.i #include. + + * ace/OS.i (ACE_IO_Vector::buffer): added static cast of new_buffer + to char *. + + * ace/OS.i (writev): changed return type from int to ssize_t to + match declaration in OS.h. + +Fri May 22 12:20:11 1998 Irfan Pyarali <irfan@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace: Other parts of ACE were modified to use the new + ACE_IO_Vector class. + + * ace/OS.h (ACE_IO_Vector): Added a new class that inherits from + the correct IO_Vector class provided by the platform. + + writev() and readv() were being emulated on Win32 in ACE. A new + ACE_OS::writev() and ACE_OS::readv() has been added to ACE + that uses WSASend() and WSARecv() respectively. However, in + order for you to exploit these new functions, you must use + ACE_IO_Vector instead of iovec. The ideal situation would have + been to totally replace iovec with ACE_IO_Vector but that would + break too much code. So, if you keep using iovec, you will use + the expenses and slow emulations. If you want to use WSASend() + and WSARecv(), switch over to ACE_IO_Vector. It will work on + both Win32 and non-Win32 platforms. + +Fri May 22 07:53:03 1998 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/config-linux-pthread.h: removed two + ACE_LACKS_CONDATTR_PSHARED #defines. That leaves just + one, that's commented out. + + * performance-tests/Misc/context_switch_time.cpp: create all + threads as detached so they don't have to be joined. They + test was using up resources on LynxOS, if a high -c option + was used, without this change. + + * ace/config-sunos5.5-{g++,sunc++-4.x}.h,config-sunos5.5.h: + merged config-sunos5.5-g++.h and config-sunos5.5-sunc++-4.x.h + into config-sunos5.5.h. That new file should be maintained + for both compilers from now on. The old files have been + retained for backward compatibility. The just #include + config-sunos5.5.h. + + * ace/config-sunos5.6.h: #include config-sunos5.5.h instead + of the separate Sun C++ and g++ configs. + + * include/makeinclude/platform_sunos5_sunc++.GNU: + updated comment to reflect change to config-sunos5.5.h. + +Fri May 22 07:30:23 1998 David L.

Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/config-sunos5.6.h: added support for POSIX 199506 + extensions. Thanks to J. Russell Noseworthy + <rnosewor@objectsciences.com> for providing this support. + + * ace/Local_Tokens.{h,i}: inlined ACE_Null_Token ctor and dtor + in class header because the clone () method needs the ctor + inlined, and it's too difficult to get it right with macros. + + * tests/SString_Test.cpp (main): added ACE_ASSERT with s4 in + it, because it was unused otherwise. + + * performance-tests/Synch-Benchmarks/Options.cpp (print_results): + changed #else to #elif, because it has a condition after it. + +Thu May 21 15:28:07 1998 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu> + + * tests/test_config.h: Modified to write output from tests into + log file. Notice that log files on CE have extension name + ".txt" instead of ".log". + + * ace/OS.i (strrchr): Added UNICODE version of this function. + + * ace/Log_Record.{h,cpp}: Generalized message formatting on CE by + adding a new method format_msg(). + + * ace/Reactor_Impl.h: Removed an extra comma. + + * ace/XtReactor.cpp: Include "ace/Reactor.h" + + * tests/Recursive_Mutex_Test.cpp: + * tests/Future.cpp: Removed iteration restriction on CE. + +Thu May 21 12:13:36 1998 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/ace_{dll,lib}.dsp: Added Stats.cpp into projects. + +Wed May 20 23:02:41 1998 Steve Huston <shuston@riverace.com> + + * ace/SOCK_Dgram_Mcast.cpp (subscribe): On Win32, if + ACE::get_ip_interfaces finds less than 2 interfaces, call + subscribe with "0.0.0.0". This is sort of a hack and is meant + only to help get things working again until ACE::get_ip_interfaces + can be made to work correctly in all cases. + +Wed May 20 10:42:12 1998 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/config-mvs.h: enabled ACE_LACKS_CONDATTR_PSHARED and + ACE_LACKS_MUTEXATTR_PSHARED.

Thanks to Ki-hyun Yoon + <abird@nextware.co.kr> for suggesting this. + + * ace/config-sunos5.6.h: Added an #define for + ACE_THREAD_POSIX_SEM.

Although it doesn't make any sense to + spawn a thread just to let it return immediately, a middleware + shouldn't restrict the way how users want to use it. + + I got around this problem by adding a lock into + Thread_Descriptor. Before spawning a thread, the Thread Manager + will first grab the lock. It won't release the lock until + calling append thread, at which point, the Thread_Descriptor of + the thread has been stashed into the table. Removing the + Thread_Descriptor also requires to hold this lock and release + the lock before the Thread_Descriptor is "freed." Therefore, + if a thread exit before its Thread_Manager ever gets a chance to + register it, it will block and waiting. + + The type of the lock is defined by ACE_DEFAULT_THREAD_MANAGER_LOCK + which, by default, is ACE_Thread_Mutex. User can change the + definition by defining in their config.h file. For example, if + you can be sure that all your threads will run for an extended + long time (which, in most case, should be true,) you can disable + this feature by defining this as a ACE_Null_Mutex to speed up + spawning and termination of threads. + + (thread_desc_freelist_): Added a free list to Thread_Manager to + recycle Thread_Descriptor. By default, this free list + pre-allocate 0 Thread_Descriptor and has low-water-mark of 1, + increment count 1 and a huge (25000) high water mark. That is, + if you use a Thread_Manager for an extended period of time, you + won't have to dynamically allocate memory for Thread_Descriptor + for every thread after your system is stable (the thread count + fluctuates between some certain values.) + + There are two ways to change the settings. First, by defining + ACE_DEFAULT_THREAD_MANAGER_LWM, ACE_DEFAULT_THREAD_MANAGER_HWM, + ACE_DEFAULT_THREAD_MANAGER_INC, and + ACE_DEFAULT_THREAD_MANAGER_PREALLOC in your <config.h> file. + This changes the default setting of your ACE. (The global + Thread_Manager use this setting.) Or, you can specify these + values when creating a Thread_Manager. + + * ace/Free_List.cpp (alloc,dealloc): Don't grab the lock in these + two functions. They only get called from add() and remove() + which hold the lock before making the call. Actually, they also + gets called from the constructor and destructor. But that + shouldn't be a problem. + + * tests/Reactor_Notify_Test.cpp (run_test): Moved the #endif of + ACE_HAS_THREADS down to avoid compilation error on non-threaded + platforms. + +Tue May 5 14:12:08 1998 Douglas C.

The main changes were the use of ACE_THR_PRI_FIFO_DEF + for the default therad priority, and removal of some + unnecessary thr_yield () calls. + + * tests/Aio_Platform_Test.cpp: added arguments to main (), + removed #includes that are already in ace/OS.h, and added + ACE_START_TEST/ACE_END_TEST calls. + +Mon May 4 13:08:18 1998 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/config-sunos5.6.h: Removed a mysterious "30" at the end of + an #undef. Thanks to J. Russell Noseworthy + <rnosewor@objectsciences.com> for reporting this problem. + +Mon May 04 08:49:09 1998 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/OS.cpp (ACE_Thread_Adapter::invoke): with ACE_NEEDS_LWP_PRIO_SET, + added the call to ACE_OS::thr_setprio () so that the LWP priority + will be set if running in the RT class. Applications no longer + have to be concerned with this. + + * performance-tests/Misc/preempt.cpp (svc): removed + ACE_OS::thr_setprio () calls to set LWP priority, now that ACE + handles that internally. + + * include/makeinclude/platform_*linux.GNU: added "s" to + ARFLAGS, so that ranlib is no longer necessary. + +Sun May 03 22:37:38 1998 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/Parse_Node.cpp (open_handle): WinCE doesn't support + ExpandEnvironmentStringA. + + * ace/config-win32-common.h: Only define ACE_HAS_GETRUSAGE when + ACE_HAS_WINNT4 != 0. Thanks to Paul Motuzenko + <p_motuzenko@hotmail.com> for reporting this. + +Sun May 03 01:58:47 1998 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ACE version 4.5.1 released. + +Sat May 2 14:35:04 1998 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu> + + * tests/Reactor_Notify_Test.cpp: Factored out some common code to + make the test more concise. + + * tests/Reactor_Notify_Test.cpp: Modified the test to check + whether our new mechanism for disabling the notify pipe works + correctly. + + * ace/{WFMO,Select}_Reactor[_Impl]: Added the + "disable_notify_pipe" flag in the constructor in order to + disable this feature and save on descriptors if they aren't + required. Thanks to Tom Venturella <tventurell@mdc.com> for + motivating this. + +Sat May 02 Alexander Babu Arulanthu <alex@merengue.cs.wustl.edu> + + * tests/Aio_Platform_Test.cpp: Included this test program for + testing a platform for Asynchronous I/O options. + * tests/Makefile (BIN): Added Aio_Platform_Test. + +Fri May 01 17:52:32 1998 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/Arg_Shifter.{h,cpp}: Added macros ACE_Export and + ACE_BUILD_DLL respectively. + + * ace/ACE_Library.mak: + * ace/ace_{dll,lib}.dsp: Added Arg_Shifter.cpp into project. + +Fri May 1 13:52:32 1998 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/Addr: Made the destructor for ACE_Addr virtual so that + subclasses can be deleted correctly. Thanks to Wei Chiang + <chiang@horizon.ntc.nokia.com> for reporting this. + + * ace: Added Arg_Shifter from TAO and renamed it to + ACE_Arg_Shifter. + + * ace/IOStream_T.i (recv_n): ACE_IOStream<STREAM>::eof (void) had + a subtle bug if it is called when a get operation (>>) has not + failed. Thanks to James CE Johnson <ace-users@lads.com> for + reporting this bug. + + * examples/Connection/misc/Connection_Handler.cpp: Make sure to + activate() each active object using THR_DETACHED so we don't run + out of threading resources. Thanks to Brad Walton + <brad.walton@transnexus.com> for reporting this. + + * ace/Timer_Queue_Adapters.cpp: Rather than returning the result + of schedule_ualarm(), the + ACE_Async_Timer_Queue_Adapter<TQ>::schedule() method should + return the timer id. Thanks to James Garrison + <jhg@austx.tandem.com> for reporting this. + + * examples/System_V_IPC/SV_Message_Queues: Renamed the so-called + "ACE_Message_Block" to "Message_Block" so it wouldn't be as + confusing. Thanks to Ganapathi <guns@fs.IConNet.NET> for this + suggestion. + +Fri May 01 17:52:32 1998 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/ACE_Library.mak: + * ace/ace_{dll,lib}.dsp: Added Arg_Shifter.cpp into project. + +Fri May 01 14:09:21 1998 Steve Huston <shuston@riverace.com> + + * ace/OS.h: Changed ACE_hrtime_t from signed to unsigned on Win32 + to insure correct results from ACE_High_Res_Timer::elapsed_time + calculations. Fixes bug P87. + +Fri May 01 11:52:47 1998 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/OS.h: Forgot to redefine ASYS_INLINE after #undef it. + + * ace/OS.i (last_error): On Win32, this should also update errno + after calling SetLastError (). Thanks to Steve for pointing + this out. Fixes bug P88. + +Fri May 01 10:01:09 1998 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ace/config-sunos5.6.h: replaced config-sunos5.6-sunc++-4.x.h + with this config file, which supports both Sun C++ and g++. + + * ace/OS.i (gethrtime): for the default (::gettimeofday) case, + use 64-bit instead of 32-bit arithmetic by casting to ACE_hrtime_t. + + * ace/Basic_Types.{h,i}: added ACE_U_LongLong::operator *. + + * ace/Env_Value_T.cpp: added #include of Env_Value_T.h. + +Fri May 1 00:35:40 1998 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu> + + * include/makeinclude/wrapper_macros.GNU + (ACE_LDSO_Version_Number): Fixed the problem of not able to + parse a formal release number from ace/VERSION. + +Thu Apr 30 15:53:58 1998 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu> + + * ACE.{h,i,cpp}: + * DEV.{h,i,cpp}: + * DEV_Connector.{h,i,cpp}: + * DEV_IO.{h,i,cpp}: + * Date_Time.{h,i,cpp}: + * FIFO_Recv.{h,i,cpp}: + * FIFO_Recv_Msg.{h,i,cpp}: + * FIFO_Send.{h,i,cpp}: + * FIFO_Send_Msg.{h,i,cpp}: + * FILE.{h,i,cpp}: + * FILE_Connector.{h,i,cpp}: + * FILE_IO.{h,i,cpp}: + * IO_SAP.{h,i,cpp}: + * IPC_SAP.{h,i,cpp}: + * LSOCK.{h,i,cpp}: + * LSOCK_CODgram.{h,i,cpp}: + * LSOCK_Connector.{h,i,cpp}: + * LSOCK_Dgram.{h,i,cpp}: + * LSOCK_Stream.{h,i,cpp}: + * Log_Record.{h,i,cpp}: + * Pipe.{h,i,cpp}: + * SOCK.{h,i,cpp}: + * SOCK_CODgram.{h,i,cpp}: + * SOCK_Connector.{h,i,cpp}: + * SOCK_Dgram.{h,i,cpp}: + * SOCK_Dgram_Bcast.{h,i,cpp}: + * SOCK_Dgram_Mcast.{h,i,cpp}: + * SOCK_IO.{h,i,cpp}: + * SOCK_Stream.{h,i,cpp}: + * SPIPE.{h,i,cpp}: + * SPIPE_Connector.{h,i,cpp}: + * SPIPE_Stream.{h,i,cpp}: + * SV_Message_Queue.{h,i,cpp}: + * SV_Semaphore_Complex.{h,i,cpp}: + * SV_Semaphore_Simple.{h,i,cpp}: + * UPIPE_Acceptor.{h,i,cpp}: + * UPIPE_Connector.{h,i,cpp}: Added inline control for these + supposedly default inline functions. + + * ace/config-WinCE.h: Added ACE_LACKS_INLINE_FUNCTIONS. + + * ace/OS.h: Added a new macro ASYS_INLINE for platforms that don't + support inline properly.
