-
- * server/IO.cpp:
- * PROTOTYPE/JAWS/IO.cpp:
- Revert back to iovec. Also added some missing casts.

-
- * server/IO.cpp:
- * PROTOTYPE/JAWS/IO.cpp:
- Use ACE_IO_Vector instead of iovec, because it is more
- protable.

-
- * clients/Caching/URL_Properties.cpp: removed explicit
- ACE_Auto_Basic_Array_Ptr <char> instantiation because it's
- now in libACE. This file doesn't compile with g++/Solaris,
- but the Makefile doesn't build it anyways.

- get away with a compilation error.
-
-Wed Feb 18 12:31:28 1998 Carlos O'Ryan <coryan@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * server/JAWS_Pipeline.cpp:
- Removed extra definitions for default arguments.
-
-Sun Feb 15 08:05:28 1998 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * server/JAWS_Pipeline.h: added missing ; at end of constructor
- declaration.
-
-Wed Jan 7 17:26:43 1998 James C Hu <jxh@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * server/Pipeline.cpp: Put base class initialization of
- JAWS_Protocol_Filter ahead of data members.
-

-
- * clients/Caching/http_handler.cpp: Idem to previous change.
-
-Mon Dec 29 18:50:02 1997 James C Hu <jxh@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * server/IO.cpp: Idem to previous change, but fixes to improve
- compatibility and portability to Windows NT.
-
-Thu Dec 18 15:37:36 1997 James C Hu <jxh@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * server/IO.cpp: Modified to account for changes in ACE_Filecache
- to not map file on NT.
-
-Tue Dec 16 09:29:11 1997 David L. Levine <levine@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * server/Makefile: expanded rules.bin.GNU, but without
- $(VOBJS), to avoid make warnings.
-
- * client/WebSTONE/src/nsapi-includes/base/systems.h:
- #ifdef linux, not LINUX.
-
-Fri Dec 12 03:06:16 1997 James C Hu <jxh@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * server/Parse_Headers.cpp: Many things have been touched, but
- only a few things have significantly changed. I originally
- attempted to change the implementation entirely to use
- Hash_Map_Manager instead, but it was getting more complicated
- than I wanted, so I went back to debugging.
-
- - Trailing whitespace has been removed.
- - A couple of debug messages have been added the
- Headers::parse_header_line ().
- - Method declarations had to be changed to account for the
- fact that the Map_Item class (which had previously
- been declared inside of Headers_Map) is now in global
- scope and has been renamed to Headers_Map_Item.
- - The no_value_ data member and the char* cast operator of
- Map_Item have been removed.
- - The assignment operator for Map_Item has been made a bit
- tidier in its memory management (say no to memory
- leaks!).
- - Debugged the Headers_Map data structure. This involved
- the following:
- . Re-implementation of strcasecmp (red-herring).
- . Re-implementation of Headers::compare (). This is
- needed because empty table entries need to compare as
- infinity against real strings, so that real strings get
- inserted correctly.
- . Debugging the Headers_Map::find () method by
- implementing first a linear search, and then my own binary
- search. It turns out the C library ::bsearch() does work,
- but I will leave in my implementation for now, since
- ::bsearch () is not in ACE_OS yet.
- . Re-implementation of Headers::place (). The old one
- was badly written. The new one is more efficient, and
- less error prone. This method turned out to be the main
- problem. It was the reason that binary search was
- previously failing (but linear search worked). The
- reason? It was corrupting memory, believe it or not.
- No longer!
-
- In addition, Headers::place () had a serious bug in which a call
- to ACE_OS::free () was added, but included the ++ operator on
- the pointer from the previous line. Ug.
-
- * server/Parse_Headers.h: See comments for HTTP_Request.cpp.
-
- * server/HTTP_Request.cpp: Removed extraneous whitespace. It's
- not what you think Doug! Just trailing whitespace at the end of
- lines that somehow get added on when people use LoseNT editors.
- Also, changes were made to Parse_Headers which made it necessary
- to explicitly use the value () accessor method when examining
- parsed headers. There use to be a operator char* () method.
-
- * server/HTTP_Response.cpp: See comments for HTTP_Request.cpp.
-
- * server/HTTP_Helpers.cpp: Added a comment to
- HTTP_Helper::fixyear ().
-
-Tue Dec 9 01:19:09 1997 James C Hu <jxh@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * stress_testing/util.cpp: Off by one errors when parsing a URL.
- Did I write this code? I don't think so. Thanks to Valik
- Solorzano Barboza <valik@geodan.nl> for pointing this out.
-
-Thu Nov 20 00:36:34 1997 James C Hu <jxh@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * server/Pipeline.h: Added methods and members so that the
- pipeline can be both push and pull driven.
-
- * server/Pipeline.cpp: Made the pipeline a doubly linked list of
- components, so that it can be operated as push-driven or
- pull-driven pipelines.
-
-Wed Nov 19 05:10:38 1997 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * server/HTTP_Handler.h: Added the keyword "virtual" on the open()
- method which is inherited from ACE_Sevice_Handler. Perhaps this
- will fix a bug with BORLANDC reported by Valik Solorzano Barboza
- <valik@xs4all.nl>.
-
-Mon Nov 17 07:34:09 1997 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * server/Parse_Headers.cpp (end_of_line): Replaced a const char *
- with a char * to work with the new ACE_OS::strchr() signature.
- Thanks to James for finding this.
-
-Tue Nov 11 19:52:38 1997 James C Hu <jxh@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * server/Pipeline.{h,cpp}: The beginning of a new Pipeline
- framework has been added.
-
-Sun Oct 12 16:21:32 1997 Carlos O'Ryan <coryan@macarena.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * clients/Caching/Makefile:
- * stress_testing/Makefile:
- There is no need to set LDLIBS to add local object files
- anymore, using FILES is enough.
-
-Fri Oct 10 18:41:47 1997 Carlos O'Ryan <coryan@macarena.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * clients/Blobby/Makefile:
- Fixed problem that made compilation fail.
-
-Thu Sep 11 10:40:38 1997 Carlos O'Ryan <coryan@polka.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * server/HTTP_Request.cpp:
- I checked the use of MAXNAMELEN vs. MAXPATHLEN; all buffers
- intended to keep full filenames should have at least
- MAXPATHLEN+1 chars.
- Only buffers that will keep basenames (without any directories)
- should have MAXNAMELEN+1 bytes.
- I also added a new macro ACE_MAX_FULLY_QUALIFIED_NAME_LEN which
- is the maximum number of characters for a fully qualified
- internet hostname.
- There remain one obscure usage of these macros in ace/Malloc.h
- and Local_Naming_Space_T.{h,cpp}, but a quick fix broke
- something, I will try again soon.
-
-Tue Sep 9 22:08:36 1997 James C Hu <jxh@lambada.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * server/HTTP_Server.{cpp,h}: Changes which answer questions
- brought up in design review. Mostly additional comments. Also
- changes to have a task spawn a number of threads rather than
- iterating through calls to the activate method.
-
-Fri Aug 29 11:07:43 1997 James C Hu <jxh@lambada.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * server/*.{cpp,h}: Changes to make JAWS comply with ACE
- coding standards. In particular, broke up CGI method in
- HTTP_Request, remove dependency on static object in
- HTTP_Config, and answered all questions from Doug.
-
-Tue Aug 26 21:34:11 1997 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * clients/Caching/ID_Generator.h: Made some minor changes to
- the programming style.
-
-Sun Aug 10 13:44:14 1997 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * server/HTTP_Helpers.cpp (HTTP_date): We can't use
- ACE_Thread_Mutex directly in the code since that breaks
- platforms that lack threads.
-
-Wed Aug 6 16:45:48 1997 James C Hu <jxh@lambada.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * server/main.cpp: Added another signal handler so I can kill JAWS
- when purifying.
-
-Mon Aug 4 00:07:24 1997 Nanbor Wang <nw1@cumbia.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * server/main.cpp (main): Service configurator now doesn't return
- -1 when errors occur. Therefore, we check for not success
- instread of fail when opening the service contifurator.
-
-Mon Jul 28 04:54:01 1997 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * server/Parse_Headers.cpp (place): Reformatted the same
- stuff again...
-
-Mon Jul 28 01:48:40 1997 James C Hu <jxh@lambada.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * server/README: Updated the README file to reflect new features
- and server flags.
-
- * server/Parse_Headers.cpp (place): Fixed a compile error found by
- David Levine. I don't know why this was compiling for me.
-
-Sun Jul 27 21:56:12 1997 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * server/Parse_Headers.cpp (place): Reformatted a few things
- to make them easier to read.
-
-Fri Jul 25 02:05:20 1997 James C Hu <jxh@lambada.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * server/HTTP_Server.cpp: Changes to allow the thread creation
- flags to be specified from the command line. Removed some code
- that was used to track down memory leaks.
-
- * server/HTTP_Helpers.{h,cpp}: Added another method
- HTTP_date (char *), so that a buffer to which the date will be
- written to can be passed into the HTTP_date routine.
-
- * server/HTTP_Response.cpp: Changed some code so that the baseline
- implementation can be created at compile time.
-
- * server/IO.cpp: Changed some code so that the baseline
- implementation can be created at compile time.
-
- * server/main.cpp: Changed the signal handler to wait for threads
- to die. However, this code will remain dormant for now, until
- we design a nice way to shut down a thread pool.
-
- * server/svc.conf: Changes to add some other entries people can
- try.
-
- * server/Makefile: Changes to allow JAWS to be built with static
- linking only, to ease the process of using Purify and Quantify.
- Dynamic linking will be re-configured in the future when we have
- all the memory leaks worked out.
-
-Mon Jul 22 16:55:00 1997 Chris Cleeland <cleeland@cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * Changed references to WRAPPER_ROOT to ACE_ROOT in every
- place except ChangeLog entries.
-
-Mon Jul 21 15:09:03 1997 James C Hu <jxh@lambada.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * server/HTTP_Server.{h,cpp}: Got rid of Solaris specific
- debugging code (thr_create, thr_join).
-
-Fri Jul 11 02:15:12 1997 James C Hu <jxh@lambada.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * server/HTTP_Response.cpp: Changes so that the HEADER is not
- rebuilt all the time.
-
- * server/IO.cpp (JAWS_Synch_IO::transmit_file): Changed to use
- writev () instead of multiple send ()s.
-
-Thu Jul 10 01:53:48 1997 James C Hu <jxh@lambada.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * server/HTTP_Helpers.{h,cpp}: Changed so that creating the date
- header is less expensive.
-
- * server/HTTP_Response.cpp: Changes to match above.
-
- * clients/Caching/README: Added to the repository.
-
- * clients/Caching/http_handler.{h,cpp}: Added some comments to the
- code. Also, moved the code to check to see if the file is in
- cache already into the connector, so that a connect is not
- done if the file is cached. This required a filename ()
- accessor method to be added to the handler.
-
-Wed Jul 9 13:08:00 1997 James C Hu <jxh@lambada.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * clients/Caching/http_handler.cpp (svc): Added code to check to
- see if the file is already cached before trying to cache it.
-
- * clients/Caching/http_client.cpp (main): Added a comment block at
- the top of the file.
-
- * server/HTTP_Handler.cpp and IO.cpp: Changes that were needed
- since JAWS_File is now integrated into ACE (as ACE_Filecache).
-
- * server/HTTP_Server.*: Attempting to track down memory leak.
- This code may be in a state a flux for the next week or so.
-
-Mon Jul 7 23:40:13 1997 Nanbor Wang <nw1@cumbia.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * clients/WebSTONE/src/webclient.c: Removed a bunch of THREAD
- storage class decorators from function makeload() because auto
- variables can't be declared as TSS. Also #ifdef random number
- generation code so it uses rand_r on Solaris() and rand() on NT.
-
- * clients/WebSTONE/src/rexec.c: Modified prototypes for
- PassOutputThread() and PassErrorThread() to avoid warnings from
- MSVC. Still need more refinement on this one. ;(
-
- * clients/WebSTONE/src/webmaster.c: Added prototype for
- HostEntCpy() and a null statement to avoid warning from MSVC.
-
- * clients/WebSTONE/src/gendata/genrand.mak:
- * clients/WebSTONE/src/master/webmaster.mak:
- * clients/WebSTONE/src/client/webclient.mak: Updated file paths
- and dependencies.
-
-Sat Jul 5 14:19:20 1997 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * Renamed the client directory "clients" to reflect the fact that
- we've got multiple client tests now. Also, moved the original
- contents of the client directory into a new clients/Blobby
- directory and added Caching and WebSTONE.
-
- * Moved the ChangeLog from the ./server directory into the ./JAWS
- directory since we want to apply ChangeLog entries to all
- aspects of JAWS, not just the server.
-
- * HTTP_Server.cpp (open): Added THR_DETACHED as a flag to
- activate(). This should prevent a memory leak that was
- occurring since no thread was ever "joining" the threads that
- were spawned.
-
-Thu Jul 3 23:33:47 1997 James C Hu <jxh@lambada.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * HTTP_Response.cpp (~HTTP_Response): changed delete to delete [],
- removing a major memory leak from JAWS. Still to find is a
- memory lead associated with thread per request. Nanbor's fix is
- about what I did to EMPTY_HEADER too.
-
- * JAWS_File.cpp: David points out I need to add specializations
- for the GNU C++ compiler.
-
-Thu Jul 3 22:38:04 1997 Nanbor Wang <nw1@cumbia.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * HTTP_Response.cpp (build_headers): Added explicit cast for
- EMPTY_HEADER from (const char *) to (char *) in order to make
- MSVC happy. This is probably very badly styled. But
- HTTP_HEADER is only used in places that require (const char *),
- so I think it's safe to do so.
-
-Thu Jul 3 15:34:30 1997 James C Hu <jxh@lambada.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * HTTP_Response.cpp (HTTP_Response): Moved a call to delete out of
- constructor into the destructor where it belongs.
-
-Thu Jul 3 12:28:44 1997 Sumedh Mungee <sumedh@lindy.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * Parse_Headers.cpp: Line 137, Changed pt to ptr (it was a typo)
-
-Wed Jul 2 22:33:52 1997 James C Hu <jxh@lambada.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * JAWS_File.{h,cpp}: Fixed deadlock bug, since RW_MUTEX's are not
- recursive (drat!).
-
-Wed Jul 2 21:03:12 1997 Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * Made a major pass through all the code and made the style
- consistent with that found in ACE.
-
-Wed Jul 2 14:33:27 1997 James C Hu <jxh@lambada.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * JAWS_File.cpp: Added double check locking pattern to the fetch
- routine of the virtual filesystem. This slows things down
- considerably for files which change frequently and for cache
- misses in general, but it should be correct.
-
-Wed Jul 2 14:59:29 1997 Nanbor Wang <nw1@cumbia.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * HTTP_Helpers.cpp (HTTP_decode_string): Added cast from strtol to
- char explicitly to prevent NT from complaining.
-
-Wed Jul 2 14:33:27 1997 James C Hu <jxh@lambada.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * JAWS_File.{h.cpp}: Modifications to support RW_MUTEX for both
- the virtual filesystem and the low level ACE_File. Next major
- change will be to re-implement the virtual filesystem to use a
- hash table ala ACE_Hash_Map_Manager.
-
-Wed Jul 2 00:23:22 1997 James C Hu <jxh@polka.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * HTTP_Server.{h,cpp}: Changed parsing of options to use
- mnemonic names rather than numbers. Added a new thread
- strategy, THROTTLE. This is thread-per-request until some
- maximum number. Unfortunately, it does not become thread-pool
- at this point... yet :-). Added a new option to pass in a
- backlog value.
-
- * svc.conf: adjusted to account for the changed options.
-
- * README: changed to explain new svc.conf options.
-
- * JAWS_File.cpp: Changed it so that when the file is added to the
- cache, it is also acquired. When it is removed from the cache,
- it is released. This is so that the reference count is at least
- one while the file is in the cache. Also, fixed the virtual
- filesystem by giving it a simple replacement strategy if the
- table is full. For now, it will replace the largest file in the
- cache with the request for the current file.
-
-Tue Jul 1 19:13:44 1997 Nanbor Wang <nw1@cumbia.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * JAWS_File.cpp (JAWS_File): Changes the creation method of a
- cached copy from using plain file copy to using mmap and memcpy.
- This avoid the extra complexity caused by FILE_FLAG_OVERLAPPED.
-
-Sat Jun 28 11:55:38 1997 James C Hu <jxh@tango.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * HTTP_Handler.cpp (open): fixed a typo
-
- * HTTP_Handler.cpp (cgi): fixed a bug, strdup fails on NULL
-
-Sat Jun 28 16:14:38 1997 Sumedh Mungee <sumedh@cumbia.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * HTTP_Handler.cpp (open): Changed socket send-buffer to 64k
-
-Wed Jun 25 01:11:50 1997 Nanbor Wang <nw1@dingo.wolfpack.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * JAWS_File.cpp: Removed initialization of vfs_ (see below) and
- changed all references of vfs_ to
- JAWS_Virtual_Filesystem::instance (). Thanks to Detlef Becker
- <detlef.becker@med.siemens.de> for pointing this out.
- (init): Added initialization of reference_count_ to 0.
-
- * JAWS_File.h: Removed private member JAWS_Virtual_Filesystem vfs_
- since JAWS_Virtual_Filesystem is a singleton already. Caching
- it doesn't seem to win much and depends on the order of static
- variables initialization, which is non-portable.
-
-Fri Jun 13 02:42:39 1997 Nanbor Wang <nw1@dingo.wolfpack.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * jaws.{mdp,mak}: Updated to incoporate latest changes.
-
-Thu Jun 5 14:13:22 1997 James C Hu <jxh@lambada.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * HTTP_Server.cpp: Added more informative comments to the
- asynch_thread_pool() method due to comments posed by Mehul
- (MehulM@spa-marketing.com).
-
-Wed Jun 4 23:00:47 1997 James C Hu <jxh@lambada.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * JAWS_File.cpp (JAWS_File): Fixed a bug where JAWS_File wanted
- the file to have write permissions before openning it. This is
- now only true if the file is to be written to.
-
-Wed Jun 4 22:30:41 1997 Nanbor Wang <nw1@dingo.wolfpack.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * main.cpp (main): Changed SIGCLD to SIGCHLD for better
- portability.
-
- * IO.cpp (transmit_file): The third argument passed
- ACE_Asynch_Transmit_File::Header_And_Trailer() should be an
- address (&).
-
-Mon Jun 2 16:35:18 1997 James C Hu <jxh@lambada.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * HTTP_Helpers.cpp: Serious bug in base64 decoder routine
- squashed. Didn't initialize an array with 0's. The original
- source had them declared static. Also, changed sizeof alphabet_
- to strlen (alphabet_), because original code had alphabet_ as an
- array, but my translation has alphabet_ as a pointer.
-
- * HTTP_Response.cpp: Added some code to check to see if the
- decoder returns 0. If it does, flag this as a failed
- authorization attempt.
-
- * HTTP_Handler.cpp: Added a "\r\n" to the confirmation message in
- receive_file_complete () method.
-
- * HTTP_Request.cpp: In parse_request_line (), created conditional
- expressions in the debugging print statement so that a null
- string will not cause the server to crash.
-
- * HTTP_Response.cpp:
- (1) cgi_resposnse () no longer has to wait for the process to
- die. The fix to ACE_Process of closing down child handles was
- enough to get the connection to die on its own.
- (2) Mike (mrm@cisco.com) pointed out that the output for CGI
- responses was not create. The fix was to output a small header
- before execing the CGI program.
-
- * test.cgi: a sample cgi program to use when testing the JAWS
- server.
-
-Sat May 31 13:34:14 1997 James C Hu <jxh@lambada.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * *.h, *.cpp: Changed include lines from "apps/JAWS/server/..." to
- "..." to avoid dependencies on the WRAPPER_ROOT tree.
-
- * jaws.auth: This file is added to be a sample authorization
- file. This is the file which JAWS is currently hardcoded to use
- to verify authenticated PUT requests.
-
- * HTTP_Response.cpp: Added code to normal_response () and to
- error_response () to better handle authentication. Now, all PUT
- methods are required to be authenticated. The strategy now is
- very simple, there is only one authorization file and only one
- realm of authorization. This will be easy to bring up to spec
- later, though.
-
- * HTTP_Helpers.h: Added alphabet_ data member for the
- decode/encode base64 methods.
-
- * HTTP_Helpers.cpp: Added HTTP_decode_base64 and
- HTTP_encode_base64 methods. HTTP_encode_base64 is currently not
- used, but HTTP_decode_base64 is being used for Basic
- authentication.
-
- * *.h, *.cpp: Changed include lines from "JAWS/server/..." to
- "apps/JAWS/server/..." to fix an error reported by Rob Payne
- <repayne@jeeves.net>. This was really due to a bug in the
- platform_macros.GNU file not adding INCLDIRS to the CCFLAGS
- during compilation, but in the case other platforms have the
- same problem, changing the source is a better fix.

-
- * README: updated to better reflect the status of JAWS.
-
- * main.cpp (handler): Added a signal handler for SIGINT, and also
- set SIG_IGN for SIGCLD. The first handler calls exit (0) if
- SIGINT is received, so that static destructors are called. The
- second is so that zombies are not formed.
-
- * HTTP_Response.cpp (cgi_response): Debugging. (1) The CGI
- program spewed output on the server side instead of the client.
- (2) The CGI program had environment variable being set even
- though there was no associated value. (3) The client connection
- was not being closed after the CGI program executed. Problem
- (1) was fixed by using set_handles () in cgi_options. Problem
- (2) was fixed by testing to see if the header had an associated
- value before assigning it to the environment. Problem (3) was
- fixed by sending an empty confirmation message after waiting for
- the CGI process to exit.
-
- * HTTP_Request.cpp (cgi): Debugging. It was not looking for a
- ".cgi" extension during the stage of determining if a URI is a
- CGI script. This will later be fixed when a full mime-type
- facility is implemented.
-

-
- * JAWS/server: Debugged HTTP/0.9 GET requests, and HTTP/1.0 PUT
- requests. Both work now, with minor problems: e.g. the
- Content-type header doesn't really work (always sends text/html
- as the content type). What it should do is see if the request
- included a content type header, and use it, otherwise, resort to
- some file suffix and mimetype matching algorithm.
-
- * Parse_Headers.h (complete_header_line): Added comments
- explaining the new return values of -1, 0 and 1 (see comments
- for Parse_Headers.cpp below).
-
- * Parse_Headers.cpp (complete_header_line): modified so that it
- returns three values instead of two. -1 means that an end of
- line was encountered, but nothing after it yet to verify if it
- is really a complete header line. 0 means the read cut off in
- the middle of a line (no end of line character found). 1 means
- the line is verified to be a complete header line.
-
- * HTTP_Request.cpp (parse_request): Changed the test so that an
- HTTP/0.9 request would be sent immediately after being issued.
- This involved changes to Parse_Headers.
-
- * JAWS_File.cpp (acquire): Changes involved adding some debugging
- statements to understand why PUT was not working. Discovered a
- bug in how ACE_Mem_Map was being used.
-
- * HTTP_Request.cpp (content_length): Changed to extract value from
- the headers, if available.
-
-Thu May 22 16:22:03 1997 James C. Hu <jxh@pride.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * HTTP_Request.cpp (cgi_env): Added a cast so that a warning
- generated by SGI C++ compiler goes away.
-
- * Makefile: Reordered the way the files are compiled/linked so
- that useless warnings about object files not resolving any
- symbols go away.
-
-Wed May 21 15:33:33 1997 James C Hu <jxh@polka.cs.wustl.edu>
-
- * JAWS_File.{h,cpp}: Added some comments. Will add a copy ()
- method soon, after I move my workspace over to lambada.
-
- * JAWS_Tilde.{h,cpp}: This class is being implemented but has not
- been added to the repository yet, since JAWS as yet does not use
- it, and it is still being developed. This will be a cache of
- the expansions from ~foo to the home directory of foo.

-
- * JAWS_File.{h,cpp}: New class created to replace the old kludgy
- VFS thingy. This new cached virtual filesystem is way cool: a
- file which is being retrieved can be simultaneously replaced
- without causing either reader or writer to wait. Reference
- counts are maintained now, which was missing in VFS. Also,
- there is no longer a dependency on the JXH_List template now,
- which is a plus.
-
- * IO.cpp: Changes to adapt to the new virtual filesystem. The
- changes all involved simplifications to the programming
- interface.
-
- * HTTP_Handler.cpp: Changes required to deal with the more
- generic error responses returned from the JAWS_File/JAWS_IO
- interface. This generality will make it easier to adapt
- JAWS_File and JAWS_IO into ACE.
-
- * test_JAWS_File.cpp: A test program written to see if the new
- virtual filesystem works the way I expect it to.
