This is now the official HP-UX 11 - config.h file for all compilers. - - * ace/config-hpux-11.x-hpc++.h: This file is no longer in use. It - generates a compiler error if used. It is planned to go away - for ACE 5.1. - -Fri Feb 18 10:25:45 2000 Carlos O'Ryan <coryan@cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace/OS.h: - Workaround MSVC5 bug when invoking explicit destructors. Thanks - to Achim Stindt <stindt@conbis.de> for this fix. - -Thu Feb 17 18:32:05 2000 Jeff Parsons <parsons@cs.wustl.edu> - - * OS.h: - Removed the ACE_GLOBAL_COLONS macro I added yesterday. - Found another way to generate code with the IDL compiler - that doesn't need it. - -Thu Feb 17 09:38:06 2000 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> - - * tests/Reader_Writer_Test.cpp: use default n_iterations - of 25 and n_loops of 10 on VxWorks. With the old defaults, - the test took too long, e.g., 7 minutes on a 450 MHz - Pentium. With the new defaults, it takes about 20 seconds. - Thanks to Dave Hall <David.Hall@grc.nasa.gov> for reporting this. - -Thu Feb 17 08:10:08 2000 Douglas C.

In certain cases in IDL files - where nested scoped names repeat (after skipping a scope so - it's legal), all comilers except SucCC 5.0 need the fully - scoped name with the global double colon in order to resolve - the name. SunCC 5.0, on the other hand, not only doesn't - need it, but outputs an error whenever it sees these global - double colons just inside an open paranthesis, for example, - (::foo::...). This macro is used in generating code in - just these instances so all comilers can be happy. - -Tue Feb 15 22:57:59 2000 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace/MEM_IO.h: - * ace/MEM_IO.cpp (send): Added a new method that sends a chain of - Message_Block.

This will not affect non-KCC builds on HP. - - * include/makeinclude/platform_hpux_kcc.GNU - - Added this file for building on HPUX with KCC. - - * include/makeinclude/platform_sunos5_kcc.GNU - - Modified to allow building static libraries. - - * include/makeinclude/platform_linux_kcc.GNU - - Modified to allow building static libraries. - -Mon Feb 14 08:43:31 2000 Ossama Othman <ossama@uci.edu> - - * acconfig.h: - - Changed ACE_HAS_POSITION_INDEPENDENT_MALLOC macro to - ACE_HAS_POSITION_INDEPENDENT_POINTERS since the name changed in - ACE as well. - - * configure.in (AC_LANG_CPLUSPLUS): - - Set the test language to C++ earlier in the configure script to - make sure all tests are done using the C++ compiler. - - (ACE_CONFIGURATION_OPTIONS, ACE_COMPILATION_OPTIONS): - - Moved configure script option macros to new `m4/ace.m4' M4 - macros file. - - (ACE_TEMPLATES_REQUIRE_SOURCE, - ACE_HAS_EXPLICIT_TEMPLATE_INSTANTIATION, - ACE_HAS_TEMPLATE_INSTANTIATION_PRAGMA): - - Overhauled the tests for these macros. Since there may be a - tight dependency between some of these macros, the - ACE_TEMPLATES_REQUIRE_SOURCE test also tests if either of the - other two macros are required. This fixes a problem that was - occurring with Sun C++ 5.0. - - Corrected a syntax error in the previous - ACE_HAS_TEMPLATE_INSTANTIATION_PRAGMA test, which is now part of - the ACE_TEMPLATES_REQUIRE_SOURCE test. - - (ACE_TEMPLATES_REQUIRE_PRAGMA): - - Added a test for this macro. It is only run if the - ACE_TEMPLATES_REQUIRE_SOURCE test failed. This should improve - AIX support. - - * m4/ace.m4 (ACE_CONFIGURATION_OPTIONS, ACE_COMPILATION_OPTIONS): - - Moved all configure script command line option macros to this - file and placed them in the above M4 macros. This makes things - a bit cleaner, and it also allows other macros to AC_REQUIRE the - above macros. - - * m4/compiler.m4 (ACE_SET_COMPILER_FLAGS): - - Made this macro depend on ACE_COMPILATION_OPTIONS - (i.e. AC_REQUIRE it). - - Moved more compiler specific variable settings from configure.in - to this macro. - -Sun Feb 13 11:17:33 2000 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu> - - * examples/Shared_Malloc/test_multiple_mallocs.cpp: - * examples/Shared_Malloc/test_position_independent_malloc.cpp: - * tests/Malloc_Test.cpp: Changed - ACE_HAS_POSITION_INDEPENDENT_MALLOC to - ACE_HAS_POSITION_INDEPENDENT_POINTERS. - -Sat Feb 12 20:35:23 2000 Douglas C.

Thanks to Marina and SunCC 5 for reporting the problem. - -Thu Feb 10 21:57:04 2000 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace/MEM_SAP.h - * ace/MEM_SAP.i (set_buf_len): Removed the const'ness of argument - <buf>. - -Thu Feb 10 14:09:56 2000 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace/ace_dll.dsp: - * ace/ace_lib.dsp: Added MEM_* files. - -Thu Feb 10 13:49:34 2000 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace/MEM_SAP.h: - * ace/MEM_SAP.i: - * ace/MEM_SAP.cpp: Implemented the adaptation layer for managing - shared memory in shared memory transport. - - * ace/MEM_Addr.h: - * ace/MEM_Addr.i: - * ace/MEM_Addr.cpp: Implemented the "endpoint" addressing - mechanism for shared memory transport. The ACE_MEM_Addr make - sure the "endpoint" is not on an interface that is accessable - outside of the running host. It also serves as endpoint - identification and provides the <same_host> checking method. - - * ace/MEM_IO.h: - * ace/MEM_IO.i: - * ace/MEM_IO.cpp: Implemented the IO routines for shared memory - transport. Currently, these IO routines treat shared memory - transport as a streaming devide and copy the data into its own - buffer before sending the data over. We'll add method for - acquiring and sending the internal buffer later. - - * ace/MEM_Acceptor.h: - * ace/MEM_Acceptor.i: - * ace/MEM_Acceptor.cpp: - * ace/MEM_Connector.h: - * ace/MEM_Connector.i: - * ace/MEM_Connector.cpp: - * ace/MEM_Stream.h: - * ace/MEM_Stream.i: - * ace/MEM_Stream.cpp: These classes emulate SOCK_* classes but use - shared memory as their transport mechanism. - - * ace/Malloc_T.cpp: Fixed a mis-matched ACE_TRACE message. - - * ace/OS.h: Added definitions of ACE_MEM_ACCEPTOR, - ACE_MEM_CONNECTOR and, ACE_MEM_STREAM. - - * ace/Makefile: Aded MEM_* files and updated dependencies. - - * tests/Malloc_Test.cpp: Removed explicit template instantiations - for ACE_Malloc[_T] as they are taken care of in MEM_SAP.cpp - now. - - * examples/IPC_SAP/SOCK_SAP/CPP-memclient.cpp: - * examples/IPC_SAP/SOCK_SAP/CPP-memserver.cpp: - * examples/IPC_SAP/SOCK_SAP/CPP_memclient.dsp: - * examples/IPC_SAP/SOCK_SAP/CPP_memserver.dsp: - * examples/IPC_SAP/SOCK_SAP/SOCK_SAP.dsw: Added a simple example - on how to use the shared-memory transport. - -Thu Feb 10 10:18:00 2000 Ossama Othman <ossama@uci.edu> - - * THANKS: - - Added Hajdukiewicz Markus <MHajdukiewic@heyde.de> and Gerwin - Robert <RGerwin@heyde.de> to the list of fame. - - * configure.in (ACE_LACKS_SETSCHED): - - Fixed test so that it defines ACE_LACKS_SETSCHED when - sched_setscheduler() isn't found. This was the intended - behavior. Thanks to Hajdukiewicz Markus <MHajdukiewic@heyde.de> - and Gerwin Robert <RGerwin@heyde.de> for providing a patch for - this problem. - - (ace_cv_feature_cxx_std_template_specialization): - - It appears that this variable had to be quoted when testing if - it was set to "yes" on AIX. Thanks again to Markus and Robert - for providing a patch. - -Wed Feb 09 00:41:36 2000 Irfan Pyarali <irfan@cs.wustl.edu> - - * tests/Pipe_Test.cpp (main): Spawn command should be - "./Pipe_Test" and not "Pipe_Test". Otherwise the test will fail - if the user does not have "." in his/her PATH. Thanks to Ossama - for reporting this problem. - -Tue Feb 08 21:22:45 2000 Irfan Pyarali <irfan@cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace/Token: Yesterday's change caused one problem. There was no - way to distinguish which thread was going to be the next owner. - So the following happened: - - Thread A had a read lock and was waiting in select(). Thread B - wanted a write lock, therefore it executed the sleep hook, and - then waited on the condition. Thread A got up through the sleep - hook, signaled thread B, released the lock and went back to grab - the read lock. Even though thread B was runnable, it hadn't - gotten a chance to become the owner and <in_use_> was still - zero. When thread A tried to reacquire the read lock, it - succeeded. Thread B finally ran to find out that the token was - in use and went back to sleep, and hence got starved in the - process. - - Therefore, the following changes were made to fix the above: - - - wakeup_next_waiter() always reset <in_use_> and <owner_>. If - there is a waiter, it sets <in_use_> and <owner_> for the next - owner. - - - release() doesn't reset <in_use_> and <owner_> since - wakeup_next_waiter() now does. - - - renew() doesn't set or reset <in_use_> and <owner_> since - wakeup_next_waiter() now does. - - - shared_acquire() doesn't set <in_use_> and <owner_> since - wakeup_next_waiter() now does. - - - The while loops in shared_acquire() and renew() now loop until - the calling thread becomes the owner. - - Note that this version of the Token implementation is still - better than the previous one since it does not double delete on - timeouts and wakes up the next waiter if it timed out and became - the owner simultaneously. - -Tue Feb 08 21:46:51 2000 Girish Birajdar <birajdar@lucent.com> - - * include/makeinclude/platform_vxworks5.x_g++.GNU: - added SIMSPARCSOLARIS support. - -Tue Feb 8 16:29:38 2000 Ossama Othman <ossama@uci.edu> - - * ltcf-cxx.sh: - * ltconfig: - * ltmain.sh: - - Updated from latest libtool multi-language branch versions. - -Tue Feb 8 14:25:46 2000 Ossama Othman <ossama@uci.edu> - - * ace/config-sunos5.5.h (ACE_HAS_TYPENAME_KEYWORD): - - According to ACE's configure script, Sun C++ 5.0 also supports - the typename keyword. - -Tue Feb 8 16:17:21 2000 Steve Huston <shuston@riverace.com> - - * ace/Thread_Manager.h: Added comment text to ACE_Thread_Manager::wait - noting that it doesn't wait during ACE_Object_Manager rundown. - -Tue Feb 8 14:16:50 2000 Ossama Othman <ossama@uci.edu> - - * ace/config-sunos5.5.h (ACE_HAS_USING_KEYWORD): - - Sun C++ 5.0 supports the `using' keyword. Thanks to David Wicks - <wicks@swbell.net> for pointing this out. - -Mon Feb 07 21:11:32 2000 Irfan Pyarali <irfan@cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace/Token: Bug 416 - (http://ace.cs.wustl.edu/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=416) was causing - problems for TAO/tests/Leader_Followers. The current owner of - the token was in the process of waking up the next thread. In - the meantime, the thread that was going to be woken up next - timed out. This lead to double deletes from queues and double - decrements of counters: one by the thread doing the signaling - and the other by the thread timing out. In addition, the other - threads waiting for token never woke up since there was nobody - to wake them up. - - The following changes were made to rectify this problem: - - - ACE_Token::ACE_Token_Queue::insert_entry() factored out common - code for adding followers to the queue. - - - The thread adding itself to the waiter queue and changing the - counters is the one responsible for undoing the state - changes. The thread doing to wake up is only responsible for - the signaling. - - - When a thread timeouts, it must check if it was also selected - as the next owner. If it was, it must wakeup another waiter. - - - renew() was simplified and made consistent with - shared_acquire() and release(). - - - wakeup_next_waiter() abstracted out the code for the selection - of the next owner. - - - Improved state management including values for <this->owner_> - and <this->in_use_>. - - - The wait() loop was not correct. We now loop until the token - is no longer in use. This way if the token ownership was taken - by another (new) waiter thread by the time we wake up, we simply - go back to sleep. - -Mon Feb 7 17:54:06 2000 Jeff Parsons <parsons@cs.wustl.edu> - - * bin/run_all_list.pm: - Added TAO/tests/DynAny_Test/run_test.pl to the general - and single-threaded test groups. - -Mon Feb 7 17:30:00 2000 Kirthika Parameswaran <kirthika@cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace/ACE.cpp (out_of_handles): Added ENOTSUP (Operation not - supported) check for SunOS. This helped in solving a bug when - the Cached_Conn_Test was executed using a single-threaded build. - Thanks to Steve Huston <shuston@riverace.com> for reporting this - bug. - -Mon Feb 7 17:28:40 2000 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu> - - * netsvcs/clients/Naming/Client/main.cpp (main): Removed two - warnings that crept in recently. Thanks to David Levine - for reporting this. - -Mon Feb 7 08:34:26 2000 Darrell Brunsch <brunsch@uci.edu> - - * docs/ACE-subsets.html: - Removed the instructions for subsets on Win32. Subsets are not - supported under MSVC Project files. - -Sun Feb 6 20:44:26 2000 Ossama Othman <ossama@uci.edu> - - * ace-config.1.in: - - Updated e-mail address of author (me). - - * configure.in: - - Updated e-mail address of configure script maintainer (me again). - - (PURE_CACHE_DIR): - - Fixed syntax of shell script variables. This fixes a problem - that occurred on FreeBSD. - - (LIBS): - - Removed manual addition of some thread related libraries. They - are now in the auto-detection list in threads.m4. - - * m4/compiler.m4 (ACE_SET_COMPILER_FLAGS): - - Improved support for HP aCC, and corrections. Set WERROR to - "+We67" to cause use of "#pragma once" to be an error instead of - a warning. - - * m4/features.m4 (ACE_CHECK_ASYNCH_IO): - - Reduce timeout value in test program from INT_MAX to 5 seconds. - - * m4/threads.m4 (ACE_CHECK_THREADS): - - Add "-xnolib" to CXXFLAGS when testing thread flag support using - Sun C++. Sun C++ links a thread function stub library in the - single-threaded case. The stubs are no-ops but they exist, - nonetheless. This causes the link tests used to determine if a - thread flag is needed to incorrectly pass. - -Sun Feb 6 14:52:28 2000 Ossama Othman <ossama@uci.edu> - - * ace/Makefile.am (libACE_Demux_la_SOURCES): - - Added `QtReactor.cpp' to list of sources. - - (libACE_Other_la_SOURCES): - - Added `QoS_Session_Impl.cpp' and `QoS_Session_Factory.cpp' to - the list of sources. - - (HEADER_FILES): - - Added `Min_Max.h', `QoS_Session_Impl.h' and - `QoS_Session_Factory.h' to the list of headers. - - (INLINE_FILES): - - Added `QoS_Session_Impl.i' to the list of inline files. - - * ace/OS.h (ACE_LOFF_T): - - HP-UX has a 64 bit offset type "off64_t." - -Sat Feb 5 20:49:50 2000 Ossama Othman <ossama@uci.edu> - - * ltcf-c.sh: - * ltcf-cxx.sh: - * ltconfig: - * ltmain.sh: - - Updated from latest libtool multi-language CVS branch. - - * m4/compiler.m4 (LDFLAGS): - - Remove "-xildoff" from the Sun C++ linker flags. It doesn't - seem to be needed since the compiler is smart enough to know - when to use it. - -Fri Feb 4 23:12:36 2000 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu> - - * netsvcs/lib/Client_Logging_Handler.cpp (handle_input): Added code to - handle the case where all the data isn't available when we do a - "recv()" from the socket. Thanks to David X. Callaway - <david.x.callaway@intel.com> for reporting this. - - * ace/Log_Msg.cpp (open): Add a special-purpose case for NT to make sure - that handles are reused in the client logging daemon. Thanks to - David X. Callaway <david.x.callaway@intel.com> for reporting - this. - -Fri Feb 4 19:29:31 2000 Darrell Brunsch <brunsch@uci.edu> - - * ace/Process.h: - * ace/Process.cpp: - The method command_line_argv () now returns a LPTSTR const * - instead of a char * const *. This enables it to compile under - UNICODE. Thanks to Steve Huston for pointing this out. - -Fri Feb 4 16:46:42 2000 Steve Huston <shuston@riverace.com> - - * tests/run_tests.sh: Added . to PATH to be sure that tests which - fork/exec and rely on PATH to find the program (like Pipe_Test) - run correctly. - -Fri Feb 4 16:31:22 2000 Steve Huston <shuston@riverace.com> - - * tests/Message_Queue_Notifications_Test.cpp: Use ACE_HAS_THREADS - rather than ACE_MT to leave out the ACE_Barriers in Watermark_Test - class when building without threads to avoid compile errors on - Sun C++ 4.2. - -Fri Feb 4 15:11:53 2000 Steve Huston <shuston@riverace.com> - - * ace/config-hpux-11.00.h: New config file to handle building on - HP-UX 11.00 with aCC, CC, or g++ (tested on 2.95.2). This file - will be the new file for this platform when autoconf is not used. - The other config-hpux-11* files will go away soon (maybe before - ACE 5.1 is released). - -Fri Feb 4 15:56:31 2000 Steve Huston <shuston@riverace.com> - - * include/makeinclude/platform_hpux_gcc.GNU: Added -fstrict-prototype - for HP-UX 11 - it resolves a pthread_atfork dispute between two - slightly different declarations in pthread.h and unistd.h. - -Thu Feb 3 11:38:15 2000 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace/Malloc_T.cpp (unbind): Removed the != 0 test since it was - causing ambiguity problems for G++. Thanks to David Levine for - reporting this. - - * ace/Malloc_T.cpp (unbind): Make sure to update the prev_ pointer - so that we don't end up with an improperly linked list. Thanks - to Sandro Doro <doro.s@flashnet.it> for reporting this. - - * examples/Shared_Malloc/test_position_independent_malloc.cpp: Only - explicitly instantiate a template for ACE_Malloc_T if we've got - ACE_HAS_POSITION_INDEPEDENT_MALLOC enabled. Thanks to David - Levine for reporting this. - -Thu Feb 3 11:40:27 2000 Ossama Othman <ossama@uci.edu> - - * docs/ACE-subsets.html: - - Added some notes about building ACE subsets using MSVC++. - Thanks to Paul von Behren <vonbepd@lmy-deja.com> for providing - the tips. - -Thu Feb 3 11:38:15 2000 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace/OS.i, - * ace/Synch.cpp: Added a cast of (short) to the use of USYNC_THREAD - in order to prevent ambiguity problems for KAI C++. Thanks to - Chad Elliott <elliott_c@ociweb.com> for reporting this. This - fixes bugid 418. - - * ace/OS.cpp (thr_create): Added yet another cast to (long) for - PRIORITY_MAX so that the types will be consistent for the - ace_min() function. Thanks to Stephen Moon <smoon@oxmol.co.uk> - for reporting this. - -Thu Feb 3 08:38:22 2000 Carlos O'Ryan <coryan@uci.edu> - - * bin/run_all_list.pm: - Disable the $TAO_ROOT/orbsvcs/tests/Event/* tests under single - threaded builds because the tests do indeed use threads. - -Wed Feb 2 23:35:19 2000 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace/OS.cpp (thr_create): Added a cast to (long) for - PRIORITY_MAX so that the types will be consistent for the - ace_min() function. Thanks to James Briggs - <James.Briggs@dsto.defence.gov.au> for reporting this. - -Wed Feb 02 21:56:32 2000 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> - - * bin/check_build_logs: added -p option to check Purify - output for anomaly and leak reports. - -Wed Feb 02 16:29:19 2000 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace/OS.cpp (lwp_getparam): if the LWP is in the TS - class, set the policy to ACE_SCHED_OTHER instead of - ACE_SCHED_RR. That's the only thread scheduling policy - that's supported in TS class on Solaris, where this function - can be used. Thanks to Chris Gill for tracking this bug down. - -Wed Feb 02 12:46:53 2000 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace/OS.cpp (open): Changed to determine whether files should be - opened using FILE_SHARE_DELETE flag on Win32 at runtime. This - allows ace libraries built for Win95/98 work correctly on NT. - Thanks to Alex Chachanashvili <achacha@panix.com> for reporting - this. [Bug 419] - - * ace/OS.{h,i,cpp}: Added a static data member of type - OSVERSIONINFO on win32 and initialize it in - ACE_OS_Object_Manager::init to cache the OS version - informaiton. - -Wed Feb 2 11:08:33 2000 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace/Thread.h: Clarified that cancel() is only portable - on platforms that support cancellation. Thanks to Jason - Czavislak <jczavislak@osprey.smcm.edu> for motivating this. - -Wed Feb 2 08:43:29 2000 Carlos O'Ryan <coryan@uci.edu> - - * include/makeinclude/platform_linux_lxpthread.GNU: - Add support for gprof, not very useful when compared to - Quantify, but helps. - - * bin/auto_compile: - Some tests print ERROR to indicate a failure. - -Tue Feb 1 12:59:28 2000 Ossama Othman <ossama@uci.edu> - - * ltcf-cxx.sh: - - Added HPUX shared library support for the aCC C++ compiler. - -Tue Feb 1 09:40:50 2000 Ossama Othman <ossama@uci.edu> - - * tests/Pipe_Test.cpp (main): - - Exit with error if child exited with error. Previously, the - test returned successfully which was misleading. - - * ltcf-cxx.sh: - * ltconfig: - * ltmain.sh: - - Updated from latest libtool multi-language branch sources. - -Mon Jan 31 00:09:11 2000 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu> - - * Added the following changes for Borland C++Builder 4: - - ace/OS.cpp: Removed processor architecture "hack" since - Borland C++Builder 4 supports the required structure definition, - and earlier versions are no longer supported. - - ace/OS.h: Do not define the ACE_No_Heap_Check class when - building with Borland C++Builder. - - ace/OS.h, OS.i, config-win32-borland.h: Updated compiler version - numbers for macro definitions. - - ace/Thread_Manager.h: ACE_Thread_Descriptor_Base class needs to - be exported when building a DLL. - - include/makeinclude/build_dll.bor, build_exe.bor, build_lib.bor: - Added makefile target for "clean". - - include/makeinclude/compiler.bor: Added -D_DEBUG compiler flag - when building debug configuration. - - include/makeinclude/outputdir.bor: Allow object directory to be - overridden. - - Thanks to Christopher Kohlhoff <chris@kohlhoff.com> for - contributing these. - - * ace/OS.i: Minor reformatting. - - * ace/SOCK_Dgram_Mcast: Updated the implementation comments related to - the subscribe_ifs() return value of 1 to indicate why this is - needed. Also, updated the documentation to indicate to check - for -1 on failure. Thanks to Mark Boriac for motivating this. - - * etc/Svc_Conf_l.cpp.diff: The context diff was incorrectly - written, therefore, the wrong ACE_YY_BREAK was being commented - out. This is now fixed. Thanks to David Levine for reporting - this. - - * examples/Shared_Malloc/test_position_independent_malloc.cpp: - Added a typedef to handle cases where - ACE_HAS_POSITION_INDEPENDENT_MALLOC is not set. Thanks to David - Levine for reporting this. - - * examples/Service_Configurator/Misc/main.cpp (main): Changed - int i to size_t i to avoid complaint about signed/unsigned - mismatch. Thanks to David Levine for reporting this. - -Sun Jan 30 12:35:20 2000 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace/Token.cpp (remove_entry): <tail_> should point to <prev> - entry if we are removing the last entry in the queue. Thanks to - Irfan for pointing this out. - -Sat Jan 29 12:56:16 2000 bala <bala@cs.wustl.edu> - - * ACE version 5.0.13 released. - -Fri Jan 28 20:14:20 2000 Carlos O'Ryan <coryan@uci.edu> - - * ace/RB_Tree.h: - * ace/RB_Tree.i: - current_size() was not const. - -Fri Jan 28 13:57:37 2000 Fred Kuhns <fredk@cs.wustl.edu> - - * fixed QoS realted bugs in QoS_Session_Impl.cpp QoS_Session_Impl.h - SOCK_Dgram_Mcast.cpp. Just added some error checking and - check errno after call to join_leaf. - -Thu Jan 27 20:25:37 2000 Irfan Pyarali <irfan@cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace/Token.cpp (shared_acquire and renew): Must decrement - <waiters_> in case of condition variable wait errors and - timeouts. - - * ace/TP_Reactor.cpp (handle_events): If the user gives us a - timeout, we must call <token_.acquire_read> with that timeout. - Also, we must be more careful when dealing with the return value - from <token_.acquire_read> to distinguish timeouts from errors. - -Thu Jan 27 16:52:40 2000 James Hu <jxh@entera.com> - - * ace/Message_Block.*: - Added a ACE_Message_Block::reset() method that puts the - rd_ptr() and wr_ptr() back to the beginning of the message - block. - -Thu Jan 27 16:38:03 2000 Steve Huston <shuston@riverace.com> - - * ace/Asynch_IO.h: Updated comments for ACE_Asynch_Read_Stream::read - and ACE_Asynch_Write_Stream::write to state that the affected - message block's wr_ptr and rd_ptr, respectively, are updated upon - successful completion of the operation. - -Thu Jan 27 11:06:22 2000 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace/Parse_Node.cpp: Strings duplicated using ACE::strnew() must - be deleted using delete[] instead of delete. Thanks to - Christopher Kohlhoff <chris@kohlhoff.com> for catching this. - -Thu Jan 27 09:11:52 2000 Steve Huston <shuston@riverace.com> - - * ace/Message_Block.h: Tried to clarify the comments regarding the - handling of the data block pointer in the <ACE_Data_Block> - manipulating functions. Thanks to Defang Zhou <dzhou@zoo.uvm.edu> - for pointing out the lack of documentation regarding this. - - * THANKS: Added Defang Zhou to the Hall of Fame. - -Thu Jan 27 00:15:08 2000 Irfan Pyarali <irfan@cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace/ACE.cpp (recv_n and send_n): There was a bug in these - methods introduced by the double while loops and the use of a - single break ;-) Changed break to a return. Thanks to the - HPUX_aCC auto compile build for leading me to this bug! - -Wed Jan 26 21:49:16 2000 James Hu <jxh@entera.com> - - * ace/Message_Block.*: - Added new methods mark(), capacity(), and ::total_capacity(). - mark() points at base_ + cur_size_, capacity_ returns - max_size_, and total_capacity_ sums all capcity()'s for all - MBs in the continuation. Changed space() to return - mark() - wr_ptr(). - -Wed Jan 26 21:03:43 2000 Darrell Brunsch <brunsch@uci.edu> - - * ace/High_Res_Timer.cpp: Thanks to Adamo, Vince <adamo@vignette.com> - who noticed that global_scale_factor_ wasn't being set on ACE_WIN32 - when QueryPerformanceFrequency () worked. Now the code sets it - to one when that happens. - -Wed Jan 26 17:04:24 2000 Steve Huston <shuston@riverace.com> - - * ace/Proactor.h: Changed some comments to work better with the - HTML man page generator. - -Tue Jan 25 16:23:52 2000 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu> - - * examples/Shared_Malloc/test_position_independent_malloc.cpp: Updated - this example to use the ACE_Malloc_T<> template with the - ACE_PI_Control_Block so that we get true "position-independent" - malloc behavior. Thanks to Rick Ohnemus - <rjohnemus@systemware-inc.com> for reporting this. - -Tue Jan 25 14:05:42 2000 Irfan Pyarali <irfan@cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace/Connector.cpp (connect_i): In addition to checking <sh_copy> - for a zero value, <*sh_copy> should also be checked for a zero - value. - -Mon Jan 24 12:09:14 2000 Irfan Pyarali <irfan@cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace/Connector.cpp (connect_i): - * ace/Strategies_T.cpp (ACE_Cached_Connect_Strategy::connect_svc_handler): - - Cannot use <sh> after the connector lock has been released since - other threads now have access to <sh> and can reset it. We must - use <sh_copy> instead (even when activating the newly connected - svc_handler). This should help with TAO/tests/MT_Client - crashes. - -Sun Jan 23 14:08:12 2000 Ossama Othman <ossama@uci.edu> - - * ace/OS.h (setgid): - - Added prototype for ACE_OS::setgid() method. - - * ace/OS.i (setgid): - - Added wrapper for setgid() system call. - - (getgid): - - Removed duplicate getgid() wrapper, and fixed it so that it - returns with ENOTSUP on Win32 platforms, just like the getuid() - wrapper. - -Sat Jan 22 21:10:49 2000 Ossama Othman <ossama@uci.edu> - - * configure.in: - - Moved check for old GNU C++ to m4/compilers.m4. - - * m4/acinclude.m4 (ACE_CONVERT_WARNINGS_TO_ERRORS): - - This macro depends on the compiler settings performed by the - ACE_SET_COMPILER_FLAGS macro, so added an - AC_REQUIRE([ACE_SET_COMPILER_FLAGS]). - - * m4/compiler.m4 (ACE_SET_COMPILER_FLAGS): - - Moved check for old GNU C++ from configure.in to here. - -Sat Jan 22 15:27:39 2000 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@danzon.cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace/Svc_Conf_l.cpp: Updated this file to use the new - "warning-free" generated file. - - * etc/Svc_Conf_l.cpp.diff: Commented out a YY_BREAK macro that was - causing an "unreached statement" warning on some C++ compilers. - Thanks to David Levine for reporting this. - - * tests/Thread_Pool_Test.cpp: In the method - test_empty_message_shutdown() we don't need to allocate a new - message block when sending a "null" message. This removes - another memory leak. Thanks to David Levine for reporting this. - -Sat Jan 21 12:30:33 2000 Ossama Othman <ossama@uci.edu> - - * ace/ACE.cpp: - * ace/Service_Config.cpp: - * ace/Template_Instantiations.cpp: - - Moved ACE_LOCAL_MEMORY_POOL/ACE_Null_Mutex related template - instantions to ACE.cpp. This fixes a single threaded build - problem. - -Thu Jan 20 09:15:50 2000 Ossama Othman <ossama@uci.edu> - - * bin/bootstrap: - - Create NEWS file before automake is run. Automake complains - about missing NEWS file. - -Thu Jan 20 09:03:37 2000 Ossama Othman <ossama@uci.edu> - - * NEWS: - - This file is currently generated during the autoconf support - bootstrapping process. As such, it shouldn't be placed under - version control. Removed this file from the repository. - - * configure.in: - - Added thread related preprocessor flags to CPPFLAGS prior to - running the tests that check for the pthread_cancel() strtok_r() - prototypes in case such flags are needed on some platforms. - - If the configure script determines that no usable thread library - was found it then removes any thread related preprocessor flags - from the CPPFLAGS preprocessor flags variable. - - * ace/README: - - Added description of ACE_HAS_ALT_CUSERID. - - * m4/threads.m4 (ACE_CHECK_THREADS): - - Remove any definitions of _REENTRANT and _THREAD_SAFE from the - preprocessor flags prior to checking if the compiler defines - either one, and prior to searching for compiler thread flags by - using the sed stream editor. This is done instead of using the - "-U" preproccesor flag since using that flag may undefine the - same preprocessor macros potentially defined by the thread flag - being tested. - - Added "kthread" to the list of thread flags to be searched. - FreeBSD uses "-kthread" to enable support for kernel threads. - - (ACE_CHECK_THREAD_FLAGS): - - Relaxed criteria used to determine if compiler provides thread - support by removing requirement that either _REENTRANT or - _THREAD_SAFE should be defined. - - (ACE_CHECK_THREAD_CPPFLAGS): - - Added this test. It checks if the compiler defines thread - related preprocessor flags, such as _REENTRANT and - _THREAD_SAFE. The test is a compile-time test that is performed - after the thread flag search test so that the thread flag (if - any) is used during this test in case it defines any - preprocessor flags. - -Wed Jan 19 23:21:07 2000 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu> - - * tests/Thread_Pool_Test.cpp (test_queue_deactivation_shutdown): Make - sure to release the message block once we've decided to shutdown - the message queue to avoid a memory leak. Thanks to David - Levine for reporting this. - -Tue Jan 19 13:33:08 2000 Joe Hoffert <joeh@cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace/ATM_Addr.cpp, ATM_QoS.cpp: - Fixing format characters for ACE_Log_Msg::log() method. - -Tue Jan 18 20:56:58 2000 Ossama Othman <ossama@uci.edu> - - * THANKS: - - Added Daniel Lang <dl@leo.org> to the list of contributors. - - * acconfig.h (ACE_HAS_ALT_CUSERID): - - Added this ACE macro to the list of macros. - - * configure.in: - - Thanks to Daniel Lang <dl@leo.org> for motivating the following - ACE+autoconf related FreeBSD 3.4 fixes. - - (ACE_LACKS_SEMBUF_T): - - Improved the test for this macro by including <sys/types.h> and - <sys/ipc.h> prior to <sys/sem.h>. It incorrectly failed on - FreeBSD. Presumably this change should correct the problem. - - (ACE_HAS_ALT_CUSERID): - - Added test for this macro. It should get defined for platforms - that lack support for or have deprecated support for the - cuserid() function, and have POSIX password file functions. - - (ACE_LACKS_PWD_FUNCTIONS): - - Added getpwuid() to list of functions necessary for - ACE_LACKS_PWD_FUNCTIONS to *not* be defined. - - (ACE_LACKS_PTHREAD_CANCEL): - - Added check for the pthread_cancel() prototype. If it doesn't - exist then don't use pthread_cancel(), i.e. define - ACE_LACKS_PTHREAD_CANCEL. It it probably a bad idea to create a - prototype for pthread_cancel in ACE, so just don't use - pthread_cancel(). FreeBSD 3.4 appears to have the - pthread_cancel() function but no prototype for it. - - * ace/OS.i (cuserid): - - Changed Linux implementation so that it can be used for other - platforms by simply defining ACE_HAS_ALT_CUSERID. - - Added preprocessor error if ACE_HAS_ALT_CUSERID and - ACE_LACKS_PWD_FUNCTIONS are both defined. ACE's alternate - cuserid() implementation requires that password file related - functions exist. - - * ace/config-linux-common.h: - - Define ACE_HAS_ALT_CUSERID on glibc 2.1.x since the use of the - system cuserid() is discouraged. - - * m4/acinclude.m4: - - Cosmetic updates. - -Tue Jan 18 22:53:18 2000 Toshio HORI <toshi@etl.go.jp> - - * include/makeinclude/platform_vxworks_5.x_g++.GNU: - added support for compiling ACE for VxWorks/SPARC target. - -Tue Jan 18 15:55:54 2000 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu> - - * netsvcs/ACE-netsvcs.html: Fixed a typo. Thanks to - Brian Jones <bjones@edgemail.com> for reporting this. - - * ACE-INSTALL.html: Updated the text from - Dr. Toshio HORI <toshi@etl.go.jp>. - -Tue Jan 18 15:37:25 2000 Joe Hoffert <joeh@cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace/ATM_Connector.{cpp,h,i}, ATM_QoS.{cpp,h}, ATM_Stream.{cpp,i}: - Adding changes to support FORE's latest WinSock2 ATM support. - -Tue Jan 18 13:44:34 2000 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu> - - * tests/Thread_Pool_Test.cpp: Replaced int with size_t to - prevent compiler warnings comparing signed and unsigned - quantities. - -Tue Jan 18 09:13:43 2000 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> - - * ACE-INSTALL.html: ACE works just fine on RedHat 5.1 and - later, not just 5.1 through 6.1. Thanks to Raj Narayanaswamy - <rnarayanaswamy@hologic.com> for asking about this. - -Mon Jan 17 18:03:17 2000 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace/Process_Manager.cpp: Under WIN32, the ACE_Process_Manager - registered itself as an event handler with ACE_Reactor, but did - not properly unregister itself when it closed. For error to be - noticed, you must instantiate ACE_Process_Manager with an - ACE_Reactor. ACE_Process_Manager should *not* be run as a - singleton. It must be instantiated such that it will be - destroyed *before* the ACE_Reactor is destroyed. - - When you call ACE_Process_Manager::spawn, the newly created - process is added to the ACE_Process_Manager's process table and - (under WIN32) the ACE_Process_Manager is registered as an event - handler for the new process (ace/Process_Manager.cpp, line 523) - using this call: - - r->register_handler (this, proc->gethandle ()); - - This will happen for every process spawned. Thus, - ACE_Process_Manager will potentially be associated with more - than one WIN32 process handle. - - When the ACE_Process_Manager was destroyed, the dtor calls - ACE_Process_Manager::close which (for WIN32) attempts to remove - ACE_Process_Manager as an Event_Handler from the ACE_Reactor - using the following code (ace/Process_Manager.cpp, line 256) - - this->reactor ()->remove_handler (this, 0); - - This version of ACE_Reactor::remove_handler is: - - int ACE_Reactor::remove_handler - ( - ACE_Event_Handler *event_handler, - ACE_Reactor_Mask mask - ); - - It calls event_handler->get_handle() to obtain the handle to - which 'event_handler' is associated. The problem is that - ACE_Process_Manager::get_handle returns ACE_INVALID_HANDLE, so - the ACE_Reactor never properly unregistered the - ACE_Process_Manager. This is now fixed and should work correctly - on Win32 and other platforms. - - Thanks to Greg Gallant <gcg@intercap.com> for tracking all this - down and providing the fix. - - * ace/Process_Manager.cpp (open): Wrapped the setpgid() call with a - #if !defined (ACE_LACKS_SETPGID) to remove spurious run-time - warnings on platforms that don't support setpgid(). Thanks to - Craig Perras <cperras@watchguard.com> for reporting this. - - * ace/NT_Service: Reformatted this head to conform to the ACE - programming guidelines. Also, replaced - - #if defined (ACE_HAS_WINNT4) && ACE_HAS_WINNT4 != 0) - - with - - #if defined (ACE_WIN32) - - This change allows a single dll to be built that supports both - NT and Win9x. The app can use GetVersionEx() to check whether - the platform is NT or not dynamically, or it can just call the - various service functions, which will return a function not - supported error. Thanks to Craig Perras - <cperras@watchguard.com> for reporting this. - - * tests/Thread_Pool_Test.cpp: Enhanced this test to illustrate how - to shut down Tasks using either the "empty message" strategy or - the "queue deactivation" strategy. - - * ace/Message_Queue.h: Updated the documentation of the enqueue*() - and dequeue*() methods to clarify which errno values are set - when the calls return -1. - - * examples/Threads/thread_pool.cpp: Updated this example to - remove the use of the now-defunct "wait_for_threads_to_shutdown" - feature of ACE_Task. - - * ace/Task_T: Removed the recent feature added on - - Sat Jan 8 09:44:51 2000 Douglas C. Schmidt - <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu> - - that allowed to an ACE_Task's destructor to wait for threads in - a task to exit. It turns out this is practically impossible to - use correctly because of the way that destructors are destroyed - from the "top down". However, it's trivial to get the same - behavior by simply calling the Tasks's wait() method whenever - you want to implement barrier synchronization on a Task's thread - exits. - - * tests/Thread_Pool_Test.cpp: Updated this test to illustrate - various strategies to wait for threads to exit. Thanks to Mark - C. Barnes <marcus@muse3d.com> for motivating this example. - -Mon Jan 17 14:20:17 2000 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace/OS.h: - * ace/OS.i: Changed the signature of isatty to (int) and added a - (ACE_HANDLE) version for Win32. - - * ace/Makefile: - * ace/Svc_Conf_l.cpp: Removed the explicit casting of fileno() - from int to ACE_HANDLE. - - * ace/config-WinCE.h: Added ACE_LACKS_ISATTY. - - * ace/OS.i (isatty): Removed WinCE specific section. - -Mon Jan 17 00:53:37 2000 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace/OS.h: Added a cast to (long) for ACE_THR_PRI_FIFO_MIN, - ACE_THR_PRI_FIFO_MAX ACE_THR_PRI_RR_MIN, ACE_THR_PRI_RR_MAX, - ACE_THR_PRI_OTHER_MIN, ACE_THR_PRI_OTHER_MAX since these are all - used as priority values, which is defined as a long. This - should solve a problem with the ACE_MAX()/ACE_MIN() templates on - Linux with G++. Thanks to Bala for reporting this problem. - - * netsvcs/lib/Logging_Strategy: Added a new '-w' option that - instructs the logging strategy to "wipeout", rather than append - to, an existing logfile. Thanks to David X. Callaway - <david.x.callaway@intel.com> for reporting this. - -Sun Jan 16 21:32:18 2000 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace/OS.h: Moved the #defines for ACE_MIN and ACE_MAX into the - new $ACE_ROOT/Min_Max.h file, along with their template function - definitions. - - * ace: Added a new file called Min_Max.h that uses templates, rather - than macros, to implement the ACE_MIN and ACE_MAX macros. This - is a "Good Thing" because the use of macros has undesirable - side-effects due to the "call-by-name" semantics of macro - paramter expansion... If for some reason your compiler can't - handle this, please #define ACE_LACKS_MIN_MAX_TEMPLATES in your - config.h file. Thanks to Derek Dominish - <Derek.Dominish@Australia.Boeing.com> for contributing this. - -Sun Jan 16 16:43:10 2000 Ossama Othman <ossama@uci.edu> - - * ace/config.h.in: - - Removed this file from the repository. It is automatically - generated when autoconf support is bootstrapped into a - workspace. - -Sun Jan 16 16:13:00 2000 Ossama Othman <ossama@uci.edu> - - * acconfig.h: - * configure.in: - - Added support/tests for: - - ACE_LACKS_SETREGID - ACE_LACKS_SETREUID - ACE_LACKS_SETREGID_PROTO - ACE_LACKS_SETREUID_PROTO - - * ace/ACE.cpp: - * ace/Configuration.cpp: - - Moved template instantiations related to ACE_LOCAL_MEMORY_POOL - to ACE.cpp, and fixed them so that they work in the single - threaded case. The idea is to place this set of template - instantiations in a "common" area, since TAO also needs these - templates instantations. - -Sun Jan 16 10:49:26 2000 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace/Makefile (Svc_Conf_l.cpp): Fixed the "isatty()" sed hack to - use fileno and then add a cast to (ACE_HANDLE) since this is - what the ACE_OS::isatty() wrapper expects Thanks to Nanbor and - Bala for reporting this. - - * etc/Svc_Conf_l.cpp.diff: Added a #define for ACE_YY_NO_UNPUT - to supress an unnecessary warning. - - * tests/ARGV_Test.cpp (main): Fixed several warnings. - - * ace/Process.i: Rearranged the order of the process_name() methods - so they are defined before being used/inlined. - -Sat Jan 15 19:59:00 2000 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace: Reran flex on Svc_Conf.y to generate the Svc_Conf_l.cpp file - with Darrell's fixes. - -Sat Jan 15 15:49:28 2000 Darrell Brunsch <brunsch@uci.edu> - - * ace/config-win32-common.h: - Readded the ACE_LACKS_FCNTL macro, since it seems to have been - missed in the latest changes to the config-win32 files. - - * ace/Makefile: - With Doug's help, added a couple of new commands to the generation - of the Svc_Conf_l.cpp, because the generated files were causing - a warning on NT. - -Sat Jan 15 00:41:12 2000 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace/ARGV: Added a new add() method that adds an entire argv - array in one fell swoop. - - * netsvcs/clients/Naming/Client/main.cpp (main): Replaced - the ad hoc use of argc/argv processing with the ACE_ARGV - approach. - - * examples/Service_Configurator/Misc/main.cpp (main): Replaced - the ad hoc use of argc/argv processing with the ACE_ARGV - approach. Note that this required the enhancement shown in the - following bullet. - - * ace/Svc_Conf.l: Updated the Service Configurator lexer so that - it will also accept strings that are delimited by single quotes, - as well as double quotes. This helps to simplify the use of - ACE_ARGV to create svc.conf entries "on-the-fly". - - * tests: Added a new test ARGV_Test.cpp that illustrates how to - use advanced features of <ACE_ARGV>. Thanks to Suresh Kannan - <kannan@uav.ae.gatech.edu> for contributing this. - - * ace/config-win32-common.h: Added - - #define ACE_LACKS_SETREGID - #define ACE_LACKS_SETREUID - - Thanks to Christopher Kohlhoff <chris@kohlhoff.com> for - reporting this. - - * ace/Task.h: Added a comment to the suspend() and resume() methods - encouraging developers not to use these methods unless - absolutely necessary. Thanks to Mark C. Barnes <marcus@muse3d.com> - for motivating this. - - * ace: Reorganized the config-win32*.h files - to insulate the different compiler configurations from each - other. The changes are as follows: - - * Concatenated config-win32.h and config-win32-common.h to form - the new config-win32-common.h. - - * Moved MSVC-specific language defines from config-win32-common.h - into config-win32-msvc.h - - * Updated the other compilers' files to add required language - defines originally in config-win32-common.h. - - Thanks to Christopher Kohlhoff <chris@kohlhoff.com> for - contributing this. - -Fri Jan 14 15:42:28 2000 Irfan Pyarali <irfan@cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace/Select_Reactor_T.cpp (work_pending): Made the code more - general such that any thread can call it, i.e., it is not - limited to the owner thread. This change alleviated the need - for the specialization in TP_Reactor. - -Fri Jan 14 01:48:26 2000 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace/Process: Moved the command_line_argv() from the - non-Win32 part of the ACE_Process class to the generic - part since it shouldn't depend on the platform. Thanks - to Michael Kircher for reporting this. - - * ace/Process: Consider a process that spawns a number of - processes using a same executable name but with different - arguments <say svc.conf file..>. Depending on the arguments, - each process does different things. Currently - <ACE_Process::spawn> calls <execvp> with argv[0] as the - exeutable name. Therefore, if you do a <ps> command now, all - these processes will look the same, since they are all launched - with the same command. - - But for <execvp> call, you could actually give a different - executable name and a different argv[0]. This helps us to have - the name for a process to be different from the executable - name. In this case, <ps> command will show the processes with - different argv[0] names. - - Therefore, we added a method called <process_name> to - ACE_Process_Options to specify the executable name. If you do - not call <process_name> method, argv[0] is taken as the - executable name. Thanks to Alex Arulanthu <alex@sylantro.com> - for these enhancements. - -Thu Jan 13 20:11:55 2000 Irfan Pyarali <irfan@cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace/TP_Reactor.cpp (work_pending): This version is similar to - the select reactor except there is no owner check. - - * ace/Select_Reactor_T.cpp (work_pending): The handle set must be - copied before calling select(). - -Thu Jan 13 16:06:19 2000 Balachandran Natarajan <bala@cs.wustl.edu> - - * bin/auto_compile: - * bin/run_all.pl: - * bin/run_all_list.pm: Added an AMI test case for testing in the - nightly builds. - -Wed Jan 12 23:46:36 2000 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace/Service_Config.h: Updated the - ACE_Service_Config::close_singletons() method documentation to - reflect the fact that it no longer deletes the Allocator, which - is deleted by the ACE_Object_Manager now. Thanks to Craig - Perras <cperras@watchguard.com> for reporting this. - -Wed Jan 12 09:49:57 2000 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> - - * bin/make_release: don't create diffs if not installing - the kit. - -Wed Jan 12 07:22:42 2000 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> - - * Makefile (CONTROLLED_FILES): removed - man/man3/Makefile.am and man/html/Makefile.am. There - addition in - Tue Jan 4 12:58:54 2000 Ossama Othman <othman@cs.wustl.edu> - caused creation of .zip files to break. zip doesn't like - multiple occurrences of a file, apparently. [Bug 408] - -Tue Jan 11 21:59:34 2000 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> - - * bin/make_release (create_kit): disable creation of - md5 files, because it didn't work: just empty files - were created. I think that it was looking in the wrong - directory. - -Tue Jan 11 21:26:14 2000 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> - - * bin/make_release (check_workspace): removed the bootstrap - invocation. That is done in create_kit (), and should only - be done once. (create_kit): set umask to 2, so that the - kits will have group write permission. - -Tue Jan 11 17:39:10 2000 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace/Service_Config.h: Updated the ACE_Service_Config::close() - method documentation to reflect the fact that it no longer - closes the singletons (these are closed by the - ACE_Object_Manager now). Thanks to Craig Perras - <cperras@watchguard.com> for reporting this. - -Tue Jan 11 17:22:21 2000 bala <bala@cs.wustl.edu> - - * ACE version 5.0.12 released. - -Mon Jan 10 12:50:10 2000 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace/Select_Reactor_T.h (class ACE_Select_Reactor_T): Reformatted the - documentation a bit... - -Mon Jan 10 15:37:22 2000 Irfan Pyarali <irfan@cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace/Pair_T: Added const accessors to the pair class. Also, - changed the Reference_Pair accessors to be const. Thanks to - Serge Kolgan <skolgan@cisco.com> for reporting this. - -Sun Jan 9 00:25:58 2000 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace/Process.i (setreugid): Added an ACE_UNUSED_ARG for the - ACE_LACKS_PWD_FUNCTIONS case. Thanks to David for catching - this! - - * ace/Process.i (setreugid): Guard against the case where - ACE_LACKS_PWD_FUNCTIONS. Thanks to David Levine for - reporting this problem with VxWorks. - - * ace/Pair_T.h: Reformatted to conform to the ACE style. - -Sat Jan 8 09:44:51 2000 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu> - - * examples/Threads/thread_pool.cpp: Revised the example to - illustrate the new "wait_for_threads_in_destructor" feature of - ACE_Task. - - * examples/Threads/task_four.cpp: Reformatted the code. - - * ace/Task_T: Added a new flag to the constructor that enables - applications to request that an ACE_Task will wait in its - destructor for any and all threads in the task to exit before - returning. Thanks to Valery Arkhangorodsky - <valerya@servicesoft.com> for suggesting this. - - * ace/OS.i: Needed to add an extern "C" {} block around the - setregid() and setreuid() functions. Thanks to David Levine - for reporting this. - -Fri Jan 7 20:01:48 2000 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace/OS.i, - ace/config-sunos5.5.h: Some platforms seem to lack function - prototypes for setreuid() and setregid(), even though they are - in the library. Therefore, I've added - - #define ACE_LACKS_SETREGID_PROTOTYPE - - and - - #define ACE_LACKS_SETREUID_PROTOTYPE - - macros to handle this case. - - * ace/Process: Added support to allow UNIX applications to - automagically set the real and effective user/group ids when - ACE_Process::spawn() is called. Thanks to Craig Perras - <cperras@watchguard.com> for contributing this. - - * ace: Updated the following files to include - - #define ACE_LACKS_SETREGID - #define ACE_LACKS_SETREUID - - config-chorus.h - config-cray.h:168 - config-cygwin32-common.h - config-freebsd-pthread.h - config-freebsd.h:33 - config-hpux-9.x.h - config-lynxos.h - config-netbsd.h - config-sunos4-g++.h - config-sunos4-sun4.1.4.h - config-win32-common.h - - Ideally, Ossama's autoconf stuff will auto-detect anything that - I'm missing. - - * ace/OS: Added wrapper facade methods for setregid() and - setregid(). - -Fri Jan 7 16:05:32 2000 Ossama Othman <ossama@uci.edu> - - * configure.in: - - Only define ACE_HAS_XT if both the Xt headers and libraries are - available. Previously, the existence of the Xt libraries was - not part of the XtReactor enable criterion. - - * m4/compiler.m4 (ACE_SET_COMPILER_FLAGS): - - Added C++ preprocessor flag documentation and trivial support. - - Many AIX related compiler flag updates. - - * m4/platform.m4 (ACE_SET_PLATFORM_MACROS): - - Moved/consolidated platform-specific settings from configure.in - to here. - - Improved AIX support (updates, fixes, etc). - -Fri Jan 7 10:48:55 2000 Nanbor Wang <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu> - - * bin/run_all_list.pm: Added missing commas. - -Thu Jan 06 22:26:42 2000 Irfan Pyarali <irfan@cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace/OS.i (fcntl): There was a special fcntl() for Win32. - Removed that special version and added ACE_LACKS_FCNTL to - config-win32-common.h. - - * ace/ACE.cpp: Removed the non-"_n" versions of send/recv - functions that deal with message blocks. Since we deal with - continuation chains and linked messages, we are essentially - dealing with "_n" style functions. Also, improved the error - handling in case of timeouts. - - * ace/Strategies_T.cpp - (ACE_Cached_Connect_Strategy::connect_svc_handler): If an error - occurs while activating the handler, the <activate_svc_handler> - method will close the handler. We must set the handler to zero - to make sure that the higher layer doesn't try to close the - handler again! - -Thu Jan 6 15:00:56 2000 Ossama Othman <othman@cs.wustl.edu> - - * aclocal.m4: - * configure: - * All Makefile.in: - - Removed these files. They are automatically generated, so they - should not be in the repository. Thanks to David for pointing - out that my ACE+autoconf updates caused CVS conflicts when - updating existing workspaces. - -Wed Jan 5 10:09:35 2000 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace/Dirent.h: Added an ACE_Export on the ACE_Dirent class. I'm - surprised this hasn't been a problem before... Thanks to - Dominic Williams <dom@connected-place.co.uk> for indirectly - motivating this change. - - * ace/SString.h: Updated the documentation for the various string - wrapper facades to clarify that they don't perform any locking. - Thanks to Jerry Jiang <javalist@21cn.com> for motivating this. - -Wed Jan 05 09:53:04 2000 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace/SOCK_Stream.[hi] (sendv_n): added const to iov[] - argument declaration. Thanks to Rob Ruff <rruff@scires.com> - for reporting that TAO's AV service failed to compile - with Sun CC 5.0 because of this. - -Tue Jan 4 15:06:41 2000 Ossama Othman <othman@cs.wustl.edu> - - * configure.in: - - Added note that asks user to use stock ACE build procedure - detailed in ACE-INSTALL.html in the event that the configure - script fails. - -Tue Jan 4 14:40:17 2000 Ossama Othman <othman@cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace/OS.h: - - AIX defines "off64_t" as its 64 bit offset type. Typedef - ACE_LOFF_T as that type if ACE_HAS_LLSEEK or ACE_HAS_LSEEK64 is - defined. This should correct a problem that occurred during an - AIX configure script run. Thanks to Mike Winter for pointing - this out. - -Tue Jan 4 14:09:51 2000 Ossama Othman <othman@cs.wustl.edu> - - * configure.in: - - Fixed test that checks if sched.h is needed for thread - scheduling definitions. This should correct problems discovered - on RedHat 6.1 installations. Thanks to - - Improved sys_nerr and sys_errlist[] tests by checking for - external global variables in libraries. This should correct a - problem discovered in an AIX configure script run. Thanks to - Mike Winter for providing feedback. - -Tue Jan 4 13:23:26 2000 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace/Service_Config: Updated the documentation for the various - open() methods and the constructors. Thanks to Christopher - Kohlhoff <chris@kohlhoff.com> for reporting this. - -Tue Jan 4 12:58:54 2000 Ossama Othman <othman@cs.wustl.edu> - - * Makefile (CONTROLLED_FILES): - - man/man3/Makefile.am and man/html/Makefile.am previously weren't - being labelled. Thanks to David for pointing this out. - -Mon Jan 3 21:01:53 2000 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu> - - * examples/Service_Configurator/IPC-tests: Updated the - README file so it'll point to the right documentation! Thanks - to John Buttitto for reporting this. - -Tue Jan 04 07:26:24 2000 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> - - * ACE version 5.0.11 released. - -Mon Jan 03 07:34:38 2000 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace/OS.i (gmtime_r): return res instead of *res, because - the function returns a struct tm *, not a struct tm. - -Sun Jan 2 11:02:54 2000 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace/OS.i (gmtime_r): We should return *res rather than - *result to make the behavior correct for Win32. Thanks to - J. Afshar <jafshar@vignette.com> for reporting this. - -Sun Jan 02 00:50:00 2000 Chris Gill <cdgill@cs.wustl.edu> - - * ace/OS.{cpp, h, i} - ace/Signal.cpp - ace/Synch.cpp - ace/config-psos-diab-ppc.h: Added support for native mutexs, - condition variables, and thread-specific storage in pSOS. Native - pSOS mutexes, where available, support several cool features, - including lock recursion and priority inheritance protocol and - priority ceiling protocol support. - -Sat Jan 01 09:16:39 2000 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu> - - * ChangeLog,Makefile: moved to ChangeLog-99b. |
