-Fri May 29 17:52:37 1998 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * ACE version 4.5.9 released.
-
-Fri May 29 16:19:34 1998 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * ace/Synch_T.h (class ACE_Guard): ACE_Guard's destructor was
- changing the errno value. Fixed this to avoid doing so...
- Thanks to Arturo Montes <mitosys@colomsat.net.co> for reporting
- this.
-
-Fri May 29 15:33:41 1998 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * performance-tests/Misc/context_switch_time.cpp:
- added Synchronized Suspend-Resume Test.
-
-Fri May 29 14:46:49 1998 James C Hu <jxh@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * ace/Makefile
- * ace/RB_Tree.h
- * ace/RB_Tree.cpp: Added changes to RB_Tree to enable overloading
- of the comparison method. Added class RB_Tree to the UNIX
- Makefile.
-
- * ace/OS.cpp: Added some minor fixes to the difftime implementation.
-
- * ace/OS.cpp:
- * ace/OS.i:
- * ace/README:
- * ace/config-sunos4*:
- Added ACE_LACKS_DIFFTIME macro because SunOS4 does not support
- the Standard C difftime function. Added a difftime
- implementation for when such is the case.
-
-Fri May 29 08:22:36 1998 Steve Huston <shuston@riverace.com>
-
- * ace/Log_Msg.cpp, Trace.cpp: Changed decision for
- order-of-include/inline from ACE_WIN32 to
- ACE_HAS_ONE_DEFINITION_RULE. This completes the changes needed
- to be able to use the newer versions of HP aC++.
-
- * ace/config-win32.h: Set ACE_HAS_ONE_DEFINITION_RULE.
-
-Thu May 28 16:17:41 1998 Steve Huston <shuston@riverace.com>
-
- * ace/README: Added ACE_HAS_ONE_DEFINITION_RULE.
- * ace/config-hpux-10.x-hpc++.h:
- * ace/config-hpux-11.x-hpc++.h: Added ACE_HAS_ONE_DEFINITION_RULE
- for aC++. This is part of a set of changes to make ACE work
- with HP aC++ A.01.09 (10.20) and A.03.05 (11.00). The other
- changes are being tested still. Thanks _very_ much to Steve Coy
- for digging through this with HP and working out a solution!
-
-Thu May 28 15:55:48 1998 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * Added new configuration files for SCO. Thanks to Arturo for
- this.
-
-Thu May 28 13:57:50 1998 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * ace/Filecache.cpp: removed redundant template instantiations.
-
- * ace/config-lynxos.cpp: added undef ACE_HAS_TEMPLATE_SPECIALIZATION
- for LynxOS 3.0.0.
-
- * ace/Hash_Map_Manager.cpp,Map_Manager.cpp: replaced bare explicit
- destructor calls with ACE_DES_FREE_TEMPLATE{,2} macro invocations.
-
- * ace/OS.h: #define ACE_DES_FREE_TEMPLATE to be null on LynxOS.
- Without it, the g++ that's distributed with LynxOS 3.0.0 hopelessly
- chokes on explicit calls to template class destructors. 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. Thanks to Nanbor for finding this.
-
-Tue May 26 13:39:21 1998 Carlos O'Ryan <coryan@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * ace/Timeprobe.cpp:
- * tests/Timeprobe_Test.cpp:
- Now egcs and Sun/CC are happy with this files.
-
-Tue May 26 00:35:49 1998 Irfan Pyarali <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * tests/Timeprobe_Test.cpp: Added new test.
-
- * ace/Timeprobe: Added the ability to have multiple event tables
- for time probes. 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 version 4.5.8 released.
-
-Fri May 22 07:26:06 1998 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * ace/Stats.cpp: added some casts to avoid MSVC++ warnings
- about narrowing.
-
- * ace/config-osf1-4.0.h: removed commented-out
- ACE_LACKS_{COND,MUTEX}ATTR_PSHARED.
-
-Fri May 22 00:09:15 1998 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * ace/Local_Tokens.{h,cpp} (ACE_Null_Token): Only defined default
- ctor/dtor explicitly when ACE_LACKS_INLINE_FUNCTIONS.
-
- * ace/Stats.cpp: Defined ACE_BUILD_DLL at the beginning.
- Win32 needs to define ULONGLONG literals as 999ui64.
- This is the only place that uses i64 literals.
-
-Thu May 21 21:55:09 1998 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * ACE version 4.5.7 released.
-
-Thu May 21 17:36:37 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 Chuck Gehr
- <GehrCR@LOUISVILLE.STORTEK.COM> for advising on this.
-
- * ace/config-linux-lxpthreads.h,config-lynxos.h: removed
- commented-out ACE_LACKS_{COND,MUTEX}ATTR_PSHARED #defines.
-
- * ace/config-sunos5.5-{sunc++-4.x,g++}.h: removed
- commented-out ACE_LACKS_{COND,MUTEX}ATTR_PSHARED. Enabled
- ACE_HAS_CLOCK_GETTIME, because we always link with -lposix4.
- Thanks to J. Russell Noseworthy <rnosewor@objectsciences.com>
- for inspiring the ACE_HAS_CLOCK_GETTIME enable.
-
- * ace/config-osf1-4.0.h: removed uncommented
- ACE_LACKS_CONDATTR_PSHARED, so that we can test whether
- it's necessary.
-
- * ace/Stats.*,Makefile: added ACE_Stats class.
-
- * performance-tests/Misc/context_switch_time.cpp: use
- ACE_Stats to calculate standard deviations.
-
-Tue May 19 21:24:50 1998 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * tests/Future_Test.cpp: Reduced the number of iterations on CE.
-
- * ace/Synch.i: Added #ifdef (ACE_HAS_THREADS) to make it compile
- on non-threaded platforms.
-
-Tue May 19 10:05:07 1998 Irfan Pyarali <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * ace/SString.cpp (strlen): Renamed ACE_WString::wstrlen to
- ACE_WString::strlen.
-
- * ace/SString.i: Reordered functions to make g++ happy.
-
- * ace/ACE.cpp (hash_pjw): Changed ACE_OS::strlen to
- ACE_WString::strlen.
-
-Tue May 19 09:52:08 1998 Carlos O'Ryan <coryan@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * ace/config-irix6.x-g++.h:
- * ace/config-irix6.x-sgic++-nothreads.h:
- * ace/config-irix6.x-sgic++.h:
- Added ACE_LACKS_MUTEXATTR_PSHARED
-
-Mon May 18 16:37:36 1998 Irfan Pyarali <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * ace/SString.h (ACE_CString): Added the ability to hold on to
- user supplied character strings without having to make a copy.
-
- * ace/OS.h (ACE_OS): Added implementations for strrchr, strnchr,
- strnstr, and strstr.
-
- * ace/ACE.cpp (hash_pjw): Added new versions of these that work
- with user specified string length.
-
-Mon May 18 12:24:40 1998 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * ace/config-*.h: Commented out most of the
- ACE_LACKS_CONDATTR_PSHARED so we can see what platforms really
- DON'T support this...
-
- * ace/OS.i (mutex_init): Added support for
- pthread_mutexattr_setpshared() so we can initialize POSIX
- pthreads process-wide mutexes. 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. Thanks to Ki-hyun Yoon
- <abird@nextware.co.kr> for reporting this.
-
- * ace/config-sunos5*.h: Removed the ACE_LACKS_RWLOCK_T stuff since
- it's unnecessary. Thanks to Chris Lahey for reminding me of
- this...
-
-Mon May 18 13:48:14 1998 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * ace/Synch.i: Added #ifdef (ACE_HAS_THREADS) to make it compile
- on non-threaded platforms.
-
-Mon May 18 12:31:32 1998 Darrell Brunsch <brunsch@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * ace/Service_Config.{h,i,cpp}: Added an accessor debug() for
- external access to the <debug_> variable. More debug messages
- check this before displaying.
-
- * ace/Parse_Node.cpp: Checks Service_Config's debug flag before
- outputting debug messages.
-
-Sun May 17 23:14:32 1998 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * tests/Wince/*.dsp: Disabled precompiled headers. They ate up
- all my disk space.
-
- * ace/Service_Config.cpp: <process_directive> takes a string of
- type ASYS_TCHAR. Use ACE_WIDE_STRING to do the conversion.
-
- * ace/Log_Msg.{h,cpp} (ACE_ASSERT): Use unicode in ACE_ASSERT.
- (log): Don't exit the program for now. Exiting program here
- destroys all debugging message in the window.
-
- * tests/Reader_Writer_Test.cpp: Reduced the number of iterations
- on WinCE.
-
- * ace/OS.i: Added ACE_OS::time () implementation for CE.
-
-Sun May 17 21:45:07 1998 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * performance-tests/Misc/childbirth_time.cpp: changed type of
- MULTIPLY_FACTOR from int to size_t to avoid signed/unsigned
- comparison.
-
- * tests/Tokens_Test.cpp: synchronize start of thread svc ()
- routines. Occasionally, the first thread would finish before
- any others had started. The TSS objects would get cleaned
- up. Then, the remaining threads would start up and make a big
- mess.
-
-Sat May 16 15:10:46 1998 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * ace/Service_Config.h (ACE_Service_Config): Moved the
- process_directive() into the public part of the class so this
- can be called by applications one the Service Configurator is
- open. Thanks to Tom Arbuckle
- <arbuckle@uran.informatik.uni-bonn.de> for suggesting this.
-
-Sat May 16 14:12:09 1998 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * ace/Thread_Manager.{h,i,cpp} (class ACE_Thread_Descriptor_Base):
- Extract thread handle and thread creation flags out from
- Thread_Descriptor into this new class. This is necessary
- because after my last round of changes to improve
- ACE_Thread_Manager, I changed the <terminated_queue_> from
- holding Thread_Descriptor's to holding pointers to descriptor.
- This was a bad move because the address of these pointers had
- already been "freed." The <terminated_queue_> now holds
- ACE_Thread_Descriptor_Base which contains only the information
- needed for manipulating <terminated_queue_>. Thanks to Arturo
- for noticing this.
-
-Sat May 16 03:23:35 1998 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * performance-tests/Misc/childbirth_time.cpp (main): Added a new
- function to test the performance of ACE_Thread_Mutex in single
- thread _without_ any contention.
-
-Fri May 15 22:55:51 1998 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * tests/Recursive_Mutex_Test.cpp: Only iterate the test 50 times
- on CE as on Chorus. Otherwise, as I'm using a CEdit to hold the
- test output, CEdit would overflow.
-
- * ace/OS.i (thr_getspecific): Don't check for return value of
- TlsGetValue on CE because CE doesn't seem to set the LastError
- correspondingly.
- (strchr): Added implementation on CE.
-
- * Added Activation_Queue.i and Strategies.i.
-
- * Combed thru all these files and added difinitions for ctor/dtor
- for a bunch of classes explicitly. CE needs them.
-
- Activation_Queue.cpp Activation_Queue.h Dynamic.h Dynamic.i
- Event_Handler.h Event_Handler.i Get_Opt.h Get_Opt.i Handle_Set.h

-Fri May 15 16:55:34 1998 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * ace/config-sunos5*.h: Automatically enable ACE_LACKS_RWLOCK_T if
- we're NOT using Solaris threads (since pthreads doesn't support
- readers/writer locks).
-
- * ace/Service_Config.cpp: Removed a duplicate template
- instantiation of template class
- ACE_Unbounded_Queue_Iterator<ACE_CString>. Thanks to Ben Eng
- <ben@jetpen.com> for reporting this.
-
- * ace/OS: Fixed a number of problems that occurred when trying to
- use the PTHREAD implementation on Solaris without using
- ACE_HAS_STHREADS. The problems related primarily to the
- ACE_OS::rw*() functions. To fix the problems, the following
- changes were made.
-
- Remove the #if defined (ACE_HAS_STHREADS) from the case where we
- have the native rw*() functions. We just use the
- ACE_LACKS_RWLOCK_T compile flag to determine whether we have the
- native functions.
-
- Without the ACE_HAS_STHREAD flag, ACE_rwlock_t comes up
- undefined. To fix this, moved the definition at approx. line
- 1868 above the #else at approx. line 1865 as the following:
-
- #if ! defined (ACE_LACKS_RWLOCK_T)
- #include <synch.h>
- typedef rwlock_t ACE_rwlock_t;
- #endif // ! ACE_LACKS_RWLOCK_T
-
- Finally, the ACE_idtype_t type was also undefined. To fix this,
- moved the typedef from within the #if defined (ACE_HAS_STHREADS) ||
- defined (DIGITAL_UNIX) block and create a new ifdef block:
-
- #if defined (ACE_HAS_IDTYPE_T)
- typedef idtype_t ACE_idtype_t;
- #else
- typedef int ACE_idtype_t;
- #endif
-
- Thanks to Chris Lahey <CLahey@cccis.com> for his through help at
- recognizing and fixing these problems.
-
-Fri May 15 09:38:37 1998 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * bin/make_release: redirect cvs tag output to /dev/null.
-
- * performance-tests/Misc/context_switch_time (main): fixed
- printout of yield test time for other than the default
- number of iterations.
-

- * ace/Svc_Conf_y.cpp,etc/Svc_Conf_y.cpp.diff: removed compile
- warnings.
-
- * include/makeinclude/platform_sunos5_g++.GNU: use PIC instead of pic,

-
- * ace/config-kcc-common.h: Added the ACE_HAS_USING_KEYWORD to the
- config file. Thanks to Ben Eng <ben@jetpen.com> for reporting
- this.
-
- * examples/Service_Configurator/Misc: Updated the Timer_Service
- test to demonstrate the new service configurator feature. It's
- AWESOME!
-
- * ace/Svc_Conf.h,
- ace/Svc_Conf.l:
- Added a super-cool new feature that allows us to parse service
- configurator directives from a string rather than from a
- svc.conf file.
-
- * ace/Svc_Conf.l (yywrap): Free up ace_yy_current_buffer in yywrap
- to prevent a memory leak. Thanks to Paul Motuzenko
- <p_motuzenko@hotmail.com> for reporting this.
-
- * examples/IPC_SAP/SOCK_SAP/CPP-inserver-poll.cpp: Enhanced the
- implementation to make it easier to follow and to support the
- latest features of CPP-inclient.cpp.
-
- * ace/OS.h (ACE_OS): Added a wrapper for strcspn(3s).
-
- * examples/IPC_SAP/SOCK_SAP/CPP-inserver-fancy.cpp: Added more

-
- * examples/IPC_SAP/SOCK_SAP/CPP-{inserver,inclient}.cpp: Added
- profile timing to the server so we can compute socket
- performance metrics. Also generalized the tests so we can
- experiment with both oneway and twoway calls.
-
-Wed May 13 19:20:27 1998 James C Hu <jxh@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * ace/OS.h:
- * ace/OS.i:
- * ace/OS.cpp: Added a substitute gets implementation for when
- ACE_LACKS_GETS. The substitute is actually safer than gets, so
- I may end up making gets call the new routine instead of
- Standard C's.
-
- * ace/config-g++-common.h: Changed the g++ common file so that
- 2.8.1 acts like EGCS does. This worked on Solaris 2.5.1. We'll
- see how other's fare.
-
-Wed May 13 18:13:12 1998 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>
-

- My previous change to add print_results functionality when
- ACE_HAS_GETRUSAGE broke this on Win32.
-
- * ace/config-g++-common.h (ACE_HAS_GNUC_BROKEN_TEMPLATE_INLINE_FUNCTIONS):
- Made this macro defined for all versions of g++.
-
-Wed May 13 09:26:48 1998 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * many *.{h,i,cpp,idl} files: inserted RCS keyword string.
-
-Wed May 13 00:35:25 1998 Irfan Pyarali <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * ace: Added ACE_Export to a bunch of class in ACE. Thanks to
- Gonzalo A. Diethelm (gonzo@ing.puc.cl) for pointing this out.
-
-Tue May 12 15:16:04 1998 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * ace/config-WinCE.h:
- * ace/OS.h: Stopped using non-static object manager for CE. This
- is causing some problem at process shutdown.
-
- * ace/Acceptor.cpp: Made CE friendly.
-
- * ace/Process.cpp ([~]ACE_Process_Options): Moved things around to
- avoid compilation errors on CE. Secret: CE doesn't have
- environment variables.
-
-Tue May 12 13:28:05 1998 Carlos O'Ryan <coryan@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * ace/OS.h:
- The ACE_INLINE_FOR_GNUC macro must be defined (as the null
- token) if ACE_HAS_GNUC_BROKEN_TEMPLATE_INLINE_FUNCTION is not
- defined.
-
-Tue May 12 12:30:55 1998 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * ace/README:
- * ace/config-g++-common.h (ACE_HAS_GNUC_BROKEN_TEMPLATE_INLINE_FUNCTIONS):
- Added this new macro to get around a bug which only happens in
- GNUC 2.7.xx. It mistakenly refers to the template definition as
- the place where a function is used.
-
- * ace/OS.h (ACE_INLINE_FOR_GNUC): Added the macro to fix the GNUC
- bug.
-
- * ace/Thread_Manager.h: Added above macro to set_next and
- get_next.
-
-Tue May 12 12:11:36 1998 Bob Laferriere <laferrie@gsao.med.ge.com>
-
- * ace/Process.{h,cpp}: modifications to make the environment buffer
- and number of environment variables tunable in the constructor.
- I also fixed a logic error which previously attempted to write
- beyond an array bounds of the array of pointers into the
- environment buffer. I made the environment_argv_ buffer tunable
- as well. The new constructor takes the old hardcoded static sizes
- as the default dynamic sizes for backwards compatiblity.
- The behavior is to return -1 if the maximum buffer size or
- maximum number of environment arguments has been reached in
- following with the prior behavior. I opted not to make the members
- grow as needed so the class would still follow it's prior behavior.
- This would be simple to add, however.
-
-Tue May 12 08:29:50 1998 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * ace/Malloc.cpp (ACE_Allocator::instance): replaced dynamic
- allocation of the default ACE_Allocator with allocation from
- the data segment. Thanks to Ben Eng <ben@jetpen.com> for
- providing the stack trace that revealed the problem.
-
- * ace/Malloc.h: added comments to not add data members to
- ACE_Allocator or ACE_New_Allocator.
-
- * bin/g++dep: changed PATH to pick up /project/doc/pkg/gnu/bin/g++,
- and removed GNUG_INCLUDE. Thanks to Ganesh Pai <gpai@voicetek.com>
- for reporting problems with the old version on Linux.
-
-Tue May 12 02:59:27 1998 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * performance-tests/Misc/childbirth_time.cpp: Added ACE_OS::sleep
- (0) before all timing sections start. This ensures we own a
- fresh time slice when the timing begin and reduce the chances of
- getting preempted
-
-Tue May 12 00:42:05 1998 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * bin/dsp2dsp.pl: This file clones a new MSVC 5.0 dsp file based

-
-Mon May 11 15:15:24 1998 Carlos O'Ryan <coryan@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * ace/Thread_Manager.h:
- Removed bogus ACE_INLINE macros in class declaration, they were
- making the SGI compiler *very* unhappy.
-
-Mon May 11 15:11:11 1998 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * ace/OS.cpp (ctime_r): Renamed the fmtstr to
- ACE_OS_CTIME_R_FMTSTR for we may need to use similar scheme to
- fix other bugs in the future.
-
-Mon May 11 14:50:47 CDT 1998 Everett Anderson <eea1@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * ace/Name_Proxy.cpp: Changed one last recv to recv_n.
-
-Mon May 11 13:14:22 1998 Chris Gill <cdgill@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * ace/RB_Tree.{cpp,h,i}: (new) Red-Black Tree data structure
- implementation. A Red-Black Tree is an efficient
- self-balancing binary tree that uses recoloring to
- minimize rotations while rebalancing on insertion or
- deletion of a tree node. Items in the tree are stored
- according to a key provided at insertion. This
- implementation is an OO rendition of the ADT described
- in Cormen, Leiserson, Rivest, "Introduction to Algorithms"
- (c) 1990, MIT.
-
-Mon May 11 12:31:41 1998 Steve Huston <shuston@riverace.com>
-
- * ace/OS.h: Made ACE_LD_SEARCH_PATH, ACE_LD_SEARCH_PATH_SEPARATOR_STR,
- ACE_DLL_PREFIX, ACE_DLL_SUFFIX settable via config.h.
-
- * ace/config-hpux-10.x.h:
- ace/config-hpux11.h: Set ACE_LD_SEARCH_PATH, ACE_DLL_SUFFIX.
- Thanks to Kirill Rybaltchenko and David Levine for identifying
- this problem.
-
-Mon May 11 12:27:05 1998 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * ace/ACE.cpp (send_n): retry if ACE::send () fails due to
- EWOULDBLOCK. Thanks to Dave Brackman <dbrackma@OhioEE.com>
- for reporting this.
-
- * tests/Env_Value_Test.cpp (main): check return values of
- options.setenv () calls. Thanks to Bob Laferriere
- <laferrie@gsao.med.ge.com> for recommending this.
-
- * include/makeinclude/platform_vxworks5.x_ghs.GNU: instead of
- using GNU ranlib386 after using GHS ax for i386 targets, just
- use GNU ar386.
-
- * ace/gethrtime.cpp: added some comments about GHS asm support.
-
- * java/netsvcs/{Logger,Time}/Makefile,
- java/tests/netsvcs/Logger/Makefile:
- replaced WRAPPER_ROOT with ACE_ROOT.
-
-Mon May 11 05:14:18 1998 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * ace/config-WinCE.h: Added ACE_HAS_NON_STATIC_OBJECT_MANAGER. CE
- console programs have to set this flag because the main
- functions is actually renamed and running in a threads.
-
- * tests/test_config.h: Excluded class and macros to redirect
- debugging messages to files under CE. This make debugging a bit
- easier but we should eventually put them back under CE.
-
- * tests/Map_Manager_Test.cpp: Made CE friendly.
-
- * ace/Hash_Map_Manager.cpp: Some ACE_ERROR were not CE friendly.
-
- * ace/Profile_Timer.{h,i}:
- * ace/Synch.{h,i}: Moved inline function definitions to Synch.i
- file. Windows CE can't grok any inline at all.
-
-Mon May 11 02:43:45 1998 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * performance-tests/Misc/childbirth_time.cpp (main): Added
- a new method for benchmarking ACE_Thread_Manager::spawn_n.
- Added other cosmetic changes.
-
-Sun May 10 23:20:36 1998 Irfan Pyarali <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * ace/Token.cpp: Adding more debugging statements.
-
- * ace/Asynch_Acceptor.cpp (should_reissue_accept): Added template
- method that decides whether a new asynchronous accept should be
- issued.
-
-Sun May 10 23:28:57 1998 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * ace/OS.cpp(inherit_log_msg):
- * ace/Log_Msg.cpp (thr_desc): Wait on Thread_Descriptor's lock
- instead of the "global" Thread_Manager lock.
-
- * ace/Thread_Manager.cpp: Moved acquire_release() from
- ACE_Thread_Manager to ACE_Thread_Descriptor. This method is
- called from ACE_Log_Msg::thr_desc to prevent a thread from using
- its thread descriptor before it is fully built. The change
- relieve spwaned threads from waiting for other threads created
- in the same spwan_n call to be created before it can start
- running.
-
- (insert): Added an extra argument to control whether we want to
- insert the newly created thread into ACE_Thread_Manager's thread
- table or not. Notice that it is default to 1 to remain the
- original behavior in case anyone is using this class/function
- directly in their code. However, in ACE_Thread_Manager, we
- always prevent it from inserting because we always register
- thread descriptors from spawn_i.
-
-Sun May 10 01:51:29 1998 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * ace/OS.h: Renamed ACE_OS::Time_To_The_Beginning to
- ACE_OS::FILETIME_to_timval_skew.
-
- * ace/OS.cpp: Found the problem in ACE_OS::ctime_r. An internal
- compiler bug (?) caused the bug. The solution: move the format
- string out as a const string instead of putting it in sprintf
- directly. Weird.
-
- * ace/Log_Record.{h,cpp}: Made priority_name_ and its access
- function CE friendly.
-
-Sat May 9 20:09:13 1998 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * ace/Thread_Manager.h: Changed the type of lock used by
- <thread_desc_freelist_> to ACE_SYNCH_MUTEX. Or else, it won't
- compile on platforms that doesn't support thread. Thanks to
- Woody Zenfell <woody@arl.wustl.edu> for reporting this.
-
-Fri May 08 22:29:01 1998 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>
-

-
-Fri May 8 14:18:46 1998 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * ace/Thread_Manager.h (ACE_Thread_Descriptor): Added ACE_INLINE
- to declarations of set_next and get_next to get around a bug in
- a version of g++.
-
-Fri May 8 11:57:23 1998 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * ace/Map_Manager.cpp: Fixed a bug where we weren't calling
- close_i() when resizing the buffer.
-
- * ace/Thread_Manager.cpp (set_grp): In
- ACE_Thread_Manager::{get,set}_grp we must check to see that we
- have a valid pointer after the ACE_FIND. Otherwise a seg fault
- occurs. Thanks to Chris Lahey <CLahey@cccis.com> for reporting
- this.
-
-Fri May 08 09:47:50 1998 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * ace/config-linux-common.h: only use ACE_HAS_POLL with glibc2.
- Thanks to Saneyasu <sane@sail.t.u-tokyo.ac.jp> for reporting
- this.
-
- * ace/OS.i (sleep): On Linux without ::poll () (prior to glibc),
- copy the ACE_Time_Value argument because the system modifies it.
-
- * include/makeinclude/platform_osf1_4.0.GNU: moved -lm from LIBS
- to MATHLIB.
-
- * performance-tests/UDP/Makefile: added $(MATHLIB) to LDLIBS.
-
- * tests/Aio_Platform_Test.cpp (have_asynchio): use
- _SC_LISTIO_AIO_MAX instead of _SC_AIO_LISTIO_MAX if it's
- #defined. It is on DU 4.0.
-
-Fri May 08 08:43:42 1998 Steve Huston <shuston@riverace.com>
-
- * include/makeinclude/platform_hpux_gcc.GNU: Added $(PIC) to
- definition of SOFLAGS. Thanks to Kirill Rybaltchenko
- <Kirill.Rybaltchenko@cern.ch> for this fix.
-
- * ace/SOCK_Dgram_Mcast.cpp (subscribe): Added code for Win32 so that
- if a subscribe is done without specifying an interface, the mcast
- address is subscribed to on each non-loopback interface. This works
- around a bug in NT's winsock in the presence of multiple IP
- interfaces. Won't hurt 95 - will just run a bit slower than it
- otherwise would.
-
- * examples/Reactor/Multicast/Multicast.{mdp,mak}: Added MSVC 4.2
- workspace for this example.
-
-Fri May 8 03:43:25 1998 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * ace/Thread_Manager.{h,cpp}: Added yet one more member variable
- into Thread_Descriptor to keep track of registration of
- Thread_Descriptors. By adding this variable, we can avoid an
- extra locking in remove_thr for most cases (normal cases ;-).
- Thanks to the inspiration from Arturo Montes
- <mitosys@colomsat.net.co>.
-
-Thu May 07 22:06:13 1998 Ben Eng <ben@jetpen.com>
-
- * ace/config-kcc-common.h,config-linux-{common,kcc}.h: updated
- KCC/Linux support, and integrated into config-linux-common.h.
-
-Thu May 7 20:32:20 1998 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * examples/Service_Configurator/IPC-tests/client/local_dgram_client_test.cpp
- (main): Oops, we need to move the unlink() AFTER we create the
- file... Thanks to Sandro Doro <doros@aureus.sublink.org> for
- reporting this.
-
-Thu May 07 19:08:22 1998 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * ACE version 4.5.2 released.
-
-Thu May 7 14:10:41 1998 Carlos O'Ryan <coryan@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * ace/Timer_Hash_T.h:
- * ace/Timer_Hash_T.cpp:
- * ace/Timer_Heap_T.cpp:
- * ace/Timer_Wheel_T.cpp:
- The classes had a INHERITED typedef for the base class, but
- Solaris defines a macro by the same name. This causes very weird
- problems with EGCS (and probably other g++ versions).
-
-Thu May 07 04:15:23 1998 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * ace/Profile_Timer.cpp (elapsed_time): Treat Win32 differently
- so I can use this function with WinCE Emulation build. The
- problem is that Win32 can't convert __int64 to double.
-
- * ace/OS.{h,cpp} (ACE_Time_Value): (Win32 only) Added a new static
- const member (Time_To_The_Beginning) of type DWORDLONG (unsigned
- _int64) to adjust the time skew between FILETIME and POSIX time.
- Changed the type of _100ns to ULARGE_INTEGER to eliminate
- unnecessary computation.
-
-Wed May 6 23:58:40 1998 Carlos O'Ryan <coryan@swarm.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * ace/XtReactor.cpp:
- The signature for the open() method of the notify pipe has been
- modified.
-
-Wed May 6 23:28:47 1998 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * examples/Service_Configurator/IPC-tests/client/local_dgram_client_test.cpp:
- Fixed a couple of mistakes that were causing the UNIX domain
- sockets not to work. Thanks to Sandro Doro
- <doros@aureus.sublink.org> for recommending this.
-
- * performance-tests/Misc/context_switch_time.cpp (svc): An 'i'
- was being defined twice, gorp! It's fixed now!
-
-Wed May 06 22:00:14 1998 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * ace/config-linux-common.h: only #define
- ACE_HAS_4_4BSD_SENDMSG_RECVMSG with __GLIBC__. Thanks
- to Chanaka Liyanaarachchi <chanakal@ittc.ukans.edu> for
- reporting the lack of CMSG_DATA support on RedHat 4.2.
-
-Wed May 06 18:35:21 1998 Steve Huston <shuston@riverace.com>
-
- * ace/ACE.cpp (get_ip_interfaces): Reset buf_len before each call to
- get_reg_key to get registry value for device's IP address. It gets
- overwritten on each call to get_reg_key.
-
- * include/makeinclude/platform_mvs.GNU: Added definition for PIC.
- Though not related to position-independent-code, it is a switch that
- makes shared lib builds work right. Removed the old SOBUILD def.
- Thanks to Chuck Gehr for helping with this strategy.
-
-Wed May 06 16:32:53 1998 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * ace/Filecache.h (ACE_Filecache_Handle): Removed
- ACE_EXPORT_DECLARE and specified ACE_Export directly for
- ACE_Filecache_Handle and ACE_Filecache in calss declarations.
-
- * ace/Thread_Manager.{h,i,cpp}: A bug was found by Arturo Montes
- <mitosys@colomsat.net.co> who noticed that when a thread was
- spawned and then exited immediately, its thread descriptor might
- get freed before even get registered into the thread table kept
- by the Thread_Manager. 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. Schmidt <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * include/makeinclude/platform_sco5.0.0-fsu-pthread.GNU: Added a
- platform config file courtesy of Arturo Montes
- <mitosys@colomsat.net.co>.
-
-Tue May 05 08:35:18 1998 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * ace/config-irix6.x-sgic++-nothreads.h: updated the determination
- of ACE_SIZEOF_LONG_DOUBLE. Thanks to Bob Laferriere
- <laferrie@gsao.med.ge.com> for providing the fix.
-
- * include/makeinclude/platform_sunos5_g++.GNU: use -gstabs+ instead
- of -g on Solaris86.
-
- * etc/Svc_Conf_l.cpp.diff: updated. It's magic, Nanbor :-)
- The problem seems to be due to an old version left in
- /tmp/Svc_Conf_l.cpp, which confuses flex.
-
- * ace/config-linux-common.h,config-g++-common.h: moved
- ACE_HAS_PENTIUM (with i386) from config-linux-common.h
- to config-g++-common.h.
-
- * ace/config-linux-common.h: added ACE_HAS_POLL, so we
- don't use ::select () in ACE_OS::sleep (). Linux's
- ::select () modifies its timeout argument!
-
- * ace/OS.i (gethrtime): added RDTSC support for all g++
- _and_ ACE_HAS_PENTIUM platforms.
-
- * ace/config-vxworks5.x.h: added ACE_HAS_PENTIUM with GHS
- on Intel platforms.
-
- * ace/Makefile: for GHS on Intel 8086, build gethrtime.cpp.
- It's used to provide a high-resolution time using the
- Pentium RDTSC instruction. I don't know how to get
- GHS' asm to do it, so it uses g++.
-
- * ACE-INSTALL.html: added note about carefully installing
- egcs on Linux. Thanks to Kurt Sussman <kls@best.com> for
- tracking down the cause of mysterious link failures.
-
-Tue May 05 02:15:49 1998 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * ace/Svc_Conf_l.cpp: I know, I know. I shouldn't mess with this
- file directly. But I couldn't manufacture this file even with
- the stock Svc_Conf.l using Doug's flex. So, I reckon I'll just
- check this in now and fix the Svc_Conf_l.diff later.
-
- * ace/Service_Config.{h,cpp} (process_directive): Standard CE
- stuff.
-
- * WindozeCE/WinAdapter*.*:
- * WindozeCE/WindozeCE*.*: Replaced the old adapter for CE with a
- new one. The new version allows uses to scroll thru the
- "console" output.
-
-Mon May 04 17:09:39 1998 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * performance-tests/Misc/context_switch_time.cpp: lots of
- cleanup. 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.
