Fri Dec 31 08:07:18 1999 David L. Levine * all Makefiles: updated dependencies. Thu Dec 30 11:17:27 1999 David L. Levine * etc/ACE-development-process.html: fixed some typos. Wed Dec 29 15:42:21 1999 David L. Levine * ace/OS.h: added null definition of ACE_ENDLESS_LOOP, if not already #defined. * ace/config-cxx-common.h: added definition of ACE_ENDLESS_LOOP to avoid compiler warning about unreachable statement following the loop. * examples/IPC_SAP/SOCK_SAP/CPP-inserver-poll.cpp (main): inserted ACE_ENDLESS_LOOP. Wed Dec 29 13:21:48 1999 David L. Levine * include/makeinclude/platform_linux_cxx.GNU: added MATHLIB and test -f cxx_repository/*.o. Wed Dec 29 09:11:46 1999 David L. Levine * ace/config-cxx-common.h: enable ACE_USES_OLD_IOSTREAMS without __USE_STD_IOSTREAM. Removed ACE_HAS_STRING_CLASS on Linux, because IOStream_Test won't compile with it. * include/makeinclude/platform_linux_cxx.GNU: removed -D__USE_STD_IOSTREAM test, because IOStream_Test failed with it. * include/makeinclude/platform_linux_cxx.GNU: Removed -use_ld_input because it has no effect on Linux. Thanks to Ken Block for pointing that out. Tue Dec 28 18:32:02 1999 Vishal Kachroo * ace/QoS_Session_Impl.cpp: Added a comment for get qos(). * examples/QOS/Receiver_QOS_Event_Handler.cpp: * examples/QOS/Receiver_QOS_Event_Handler.h: * examples/QOS/server.cpp: Changed the server of the GQoS example to use the newly added QoS classes of ACE. The program structure has changed to reflect the abstractness of the ACE QoS API. The final goal is to remove all the GQoSisms from the applications, even if this means constraining it by the granularity provided by RAPI. Tue Dec 28 15:50:46 1999 David L. Levine * tests/test_config.h (set_output): removed the flags local variable, with its conditionally compiled type determination. The absorbed code is much cleaner. Tue Dec 28 15:37:11 1999 Chris Gill * ace/Log_Msg.cpp ace/Malloc.cpp ace/OS.{cpp, h, i} ace/Process_Manager.cpp ace/SOCK_Dgram_Mcast.cpp ace/Service_Config.{cpp, h} ace/Task.cpp ace/Thread.i ace/Thread_Manager.{cpp, h} ace/config-psos-diab-ppc.h: merged in changes for pSOS (Diab PPC) to support additional pHILE+ file system capabilities, and to deal with the limitations on sharing file and socket handles across pSOS tasks. Thanks to Sarmeesha Reddy and Steve Tine of Motorola for contributing these changes to ACE. Tue Dec 28 15:32:55 1999 David L. Levine * tests/Makefile: build libDLL_Test.so before building any executables, so that it doesn't see the template instantiations from all of the tests (after a make realclean, anyways). Tue Dec 28 08:55:23 1999 David L. Levine * include/makeinclude/platform_linux_cxx.GNU: added -D__USE_STD_IOSTREAM. * ace/config-cxx-common.h,ace/config-linux-common.h: added support for __USE_STD_IOSTREAM. Tue Dec 28 02:03:11 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/Container_T.i (remove): Changed to call the method using the in ACE_DLList[_Reverse]_Iterator, otherwise, the in the ACE_Double_Linked_List got called which incurred memory leaks. Thanks to Lorin Hochstein for reporting the bug. Mon Dec 27 21:29:25 1999 David L. Levine * tests/Log_Msg_Test.cpp (test_ostream): removed local variable flags, because cxx X6.3/Linux doesn't like it as an int. Mon Dec 27 19:17:46 1999 Vishal Kachroo * ace/SOCK.cpp: Added #pragma template instantiations for g++. Mon Dec 27 16:24:09 1999 David L. Levine * ace/IOStream.h (setb): commented out declaration of unused arg a. Mon Dec 27 15:51:39 1999 David L. Levine * tests/test_config.h (set_output): with __USE_STD_OSTREAM (with Compaq cxx X6.3 on Linux), declare variable flags as std::ios_base::openmode instead of int. Otherwise, it complained about a type mismatch. Other compilers may need this eventually, as well. egcs didn't like it, so let's wait to see how best to generalize it. Mon Dec 27 13:03:50 1999 Vishal Kachroo * ace/QoS_Session_Impl.cpp: fixed the "pragma once is obsolete" warning thrown by Sung++. Mon Dec 27 12:27:33 1999 Nanbor Wang * tests/run_tests.bat: Changed to allow _Borland 4_ users to set the PATH environment variable to include the path to the appropriate ACE dll if necessary, and it sets the PATH environment variable to the correct directory depending on the "build options". Thanks to Charles Frasch for contributing this fix. Mon Dec 27 11:29:20 1999 David L. Levine * include/makeinclude/platform_linux_cxx.GNU: removed -I/usr/include/g++. (It's not needed with\end{verbatim} ACE_HAS_CPLUSPLUS_HEADERS.) Thanks to Judy Ward for pointing out that cxx should not be using the g++ headers. * ace/config-cxx-common.h: on Linux, #define ACE_HAS_CPLUSPLUS_HEADERS instead of ACE_LACKS_ACE_IOSTREAM. Mon Dec 27 09:28:40 1999 Balachandran Natarajan * QoS_Session_Impl.h: Fixed a warning in g++. Sun Dec 26 23:45:44 1999 Vishal Kachroo * QoS_Session.h: Provided a definition for the virtual destructor of ACE_QoS_Session. * QoS_Session_Impl.{cpp,h}: Replaced the ACE_LACKS_INLINE_FUNCTIONS macro with __ACE_INLINE__. * ace/ace_dll.dsp: Added the new QoS files to the NT DLL project. Sun Dec 26 21:50:46 1999 Vishal Kachroo The following existing files were changed for the ACE QoS API. * SOCK.h: * SOCK.cpp: Added a QoS session set to the ACE_SOCK. Also methods to join a new QoS session. * SOCK_Dgram_Mcast.h: * SOCK_Dgram_Mcast.cpp: The QoS subscribe method was changed to accommodate QoS. The following new files were added. * QoS_Session.h: Has the abstract base class for concrete QoS implementations. * QoS_Session_Factory.{h,cpp}: Concrete Factory for QoS implementations. Currently two implementations are supported, RAPI and GQoS. * QoS_Session_Impl.{h,cpp,i}: Has the QoS implementation classes. RAPI and GQoS are supported. * ace/Makefile: Added the new QoS classes. * include/makeinclude/wrapper_macros.GNU (): Added the ACE_HAS_RAPI flag. For ACE to have RAPI support it should be built with "make rapi=1". The platform_macros.GNU should have PLATFORM_RAPI_CPPFLAGS= PLATFORM_RAPI_LIBS=-lrsvp PLATFORM_RAPI_LDFLAGS= Sun Dec 26 16:43:16 1999 Yamuna Krishnamurthy * ace/OS.i: Replaced malloc with ACE_NEW_RETURN Fri Dec 24 16:33:48 1999 Ossama Othman * acconfig.h: Added ACE_HAS_RECURSIVE_MUTEXES to list of macros. * configure.in: Fixed ACE_LACKS_SETSCHED test. It previously didn't check that sched_setscheduler() existed. Both sched_setscheduler() and either pthread_attr_setschedpolicy() or pthread_attr_setsched() must be defined. This was an AIX related fix. Initialized variables in all compile-time tests. This fixes compile-time test warnings on AIX. Fri Dec 24 13:06:59 1999 Ossama Othman The following fixes were motivated by problems discovered in a configure script log file (config.log) that was generated on AIX, and sent in by Mike Winter . * THANKS: Added my Mike Winter to the THANKS list. * acconfig.h: Removed an extraneous comment. * configure.in: Added tests for ACE_HAS_BROKEN_XTI_MACROS and ACE_HAS_BROKEN_T_ERROR. Updated TLI/XTI preprocessor directives in TLI/XTI related tests. Fixed pthread_rwlock_t and pthread_rwlockattr_t structure tests. Previously the tests were missing the header files to search in. AIX defines _THREAD_SAFE in . Check if it is defined after including . * ltcf-cxx.sh: Added Digital/Compaq C++ libtool support. Minor Sun C++ updates. * ace/OS.h: AIX defines TCP_NODELAY and TCP_MAXSEG in tiuser.h so undefine them if ACE_HAS_BROKEN_XTI_MACROS is defined before including tiuser.h. Simplified TLI/XTI related macros. Fri Dec 24 08:04:58 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace: tests: Moved ace/Auto_IncDec_T.cpp to tests/Auto_IncDec_Test.cpp, which is where it belongs. Thanks to David for reporting this. Thu Dec 23 13:57:04 1999 David L. Levine * include/makeinclude/rules.local.GNU: uncommented the rules for building .o files from .C and .cc files. They've been commented out since this file was put under CVS control, so it's not obvious why they can't be used. Thanks to Wei.Chiang@nokia.com for suggesting this. Thu Dec 23 12:16:38 1999 Christopher Kohlhoff * ace: Added missing files Capabilities.cpp and Configuration.cpp to $ACE_ROOT/ace/Makefile.bor. * ACE/tests: Added new tests Auto_IncDec_Test and Capabilities_test to Makefile.bor. * ACE/tests: Fixed syntax error in a Borland C++Builder specific section of Auto_IncDec_Test.cpp. * ACE/tests: Fixed Malloc_Test so that it does not fail with Borland C++Builder. * ACE/tests/ Changed run_tests.bat so that it does not invoke ACE_Init_Test when run with the "bor" command line argument. This test uses MFC and need not be built or run. Thu Dec 23 11:46:38 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/OS.h: Moved #if defined (ACE_HAS_SYS_FILIO_H) # include /**/ #endif /* ACE_HAS_SYS_FILIO_H */ from OS.i to OS.h so that the FIONREAD macro will be defined for the ACE_SOCK_Dgram::recv() method even if inline = 0. Thanks to Alain Sauron for reporting this. Wed Dec 22 11:29:43 1999 Nanbor Wang * bin/auto_compile_win32.pl: Renamed ImplRepo.dsw to ImplRepo_Service.dsw. Thanks to Derek Dominish for reporting this. Wed Dec 22 08:44:56 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * tests/Log_Msg_Test.cpp: Conditionally compiled the iostream print statements so that the test builds correctly if ACE_LACKS_IOSTREAM_TOTALLY is defined. Thanks to David Levine for reporting this. Wed Dec 22 08:22:24 1999 David L. Levine * tests/CDR_File_Test.cpp: disabled with ACE_LACKS_IOSTREAM_TOTALLY. Tue Dec 21 21:27:48 1999 David L. Levine * ace/config-cxx-common.h: enable ACE_LACKS_ACE_IOSTREAM on Linux. cxx 6.3 generates unresolved streambuf symbols, otherwise. * include/makeinclude/platform_linux_cxx.GNU: added. * include/makeinclude/platform_osf1_4.0.GNU: changed comment now that cxx code is in ace/config-cxx-common.h. Tue Dec 21 08:02:43 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Log_Msg.h (ACE_Log_Msg): Clarified that the ACE_Log_Msg_Callbacks are not inherited when a new thread is spawned. Thanks to Airat A. Sadreev for reporting this. Tue Dec 21 11:31:18 1999 bala * ACE version 5.0.10 released. Tue Dec 21 01:04:55 1999 Ossama Othman * ACE-configuration.txt: Updated information about using ACE+autoconf. * configure.in: Moved AC_{EXE,OBJ}EXT tests before C++ linker flags since these tests require C linker flags. * Makefile (release, releaseall): ACE-INSTALL should be a dependency of these targets in order for it to be generated. This fixes a "no such file or directory" error that occurs when making an ACE beta/release. Note that this fix is unrelated to the ACE+autoconf bootstrapping support that was recently added. * bin/bootstrap: Output message that lets the user know that bootstrapping is done. Mon Dec 20 23:55:18 1999 Ossama Othman * Makefile (release, releaseall): Removed ACE+autoconf bootstrapping commands. Bootstrapping must be done later in the process (i.e. in bin/make_release). * bin/make_release: Fixed MD5 checksum generation. Added temporary hacks to bootstrap ACE+autoconf support into the release. Mon Dec 20 22:15:45 1999 Ossama Othman * Makefile: Added ACE-configuration.txt, ltcf-c.sh, ltcf-cxx.sh and Makefile.in to the list of CONTROLLED_FILES. Added ACE+autoconf bootstrapping commands the release and releaseall targets. This allows a bootstrapped ACE+autoconf setup to be shipped with ACE, thus allowing the configure script to work "out of the box." * bin/bootstrap: Added bootstrapping options that enable or disable certain types of workspaces. By default, automatic dependency tracking is disabled by default. * bin/make_release: If path to additional GNU tools is broken, default to existing PATH and hope for the best. Fixed MD5 checksum generation. Mon Dec 20 21:14:41 1999 Ossama Othman * configure.in: Disabled maintainer mode check that prevented users from running the configure script. Added experimental libtool C++ support. Replaced CVS directory check with top-level source directory check to prevent stock ACE makefiles from being overwritten during configuration. * ltcf-c.sh: * ltcf-cxx.sh: Adding these files to the CVS repository. They will soon be merged into the upstream libtool package. Local copies will no longer be necessary. * m4/acinclude.m4: Alot of M4 quoting fixes/improvements. Reduced size ACE_CONVERT_WARNINGS_TO_ERRORS Autoconf macro. It still needs to be refined a bit (e.g. AC_REQUIREing compiler flag setups). (ACE_CHECK_SETRLIMIT_ENUM, ACE_CHECK_GETRUSAGE_ENUM): Added regex for one or more spaces before function name to prevent functions such as "__getrusage" from matching the regex. This fixes a problem on platforms that have both "getrusage," and "__getrusage," for example. (ACE_CHECK_TOP_SRCDIR): Added this autoconf macro. It prevents ACE from being configured in the top-level source directory. Configuring ACE in the top-level source directory would cause the stock ACE makefiles to be overwritten. Since autoconf support in ACE is still in the testing stages, we need to make sure that users can fall back on the stock ACE build procedure. This "feature" can be overridden by using the "--enable-maintainer-mode" configure script option. * m4/compiler.m4: Set variable "WERROR" that contains the compiler flags to convert warnings to errors. Eventually, this support should be moved to its own macro that is AC_REQUIREd by ACE_CONVERT_WARNINGS_TO_ERRORS. * m4/features.m4 (ACE_CHECK_ASYNCH_IO): Minor M4 quoting fixes/improvements. Sun Dec 19 09:34:49 1999 David L. Levine * bin/g++dep: set TAO_ROOT to $ACE_ROOT/TAO if it was unset. Thanks to Darrell for reporting that TAO_ROOT wasn't being substituted if it wasn't set. Sat Dec 18 01:16:20 1999 Irfan Pyarali * ace/ACE.cpp (recv_i and send_i): The selection of the next message block to send/recv was incorrect. The correct way is to chase the continuation chain and then go to the next continuation chain. Fri Dec 17 22:25:56 1999 David L. Levine * ace/config-cxx-common.h: added, to factor out common configuration for Compaq cxx. * ace/config-osf1-4.0.h,config-linux-common.h: updated to use config-cxx-common.h. Fri Dec 17 21:32:48 1999 David L. Levine * ace/config-linux-common.h: added support for Compaq (Digital) cxx. Currently, that just means allowing compilation to succeed. Fri Dec 17 21:29:19 1999 David L. Levine * ace/OS.h: use __DECCXX instead of DEC_CXX to detect that the compiler is Compaq (Digital) cxx. DEC_CXX is #defined in ACE config files for cxx, but __DECCXX is #defined by the compiler. Only the latter should be used. Fri Dec 17 21:20:48 1999 David L. Levine * ace/TTY_IO.cpp (control): added static cast of TCSETS to int to avoid cxx 6.3 warning about conversion of unsigned int to int. Also added the cast to TCGETS. Fri Dec 17 14:40:02 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/Local_Tokens.h (ACE_TSS_TPQ_Entry): Made the destructor virtual to avoid warnings from egcs. Fri Dec 17 13:27:24 1999 Steve Huston * ace/config-pharlap.h: Added ACE_LACKS_TCP_NODELAY. Thanks to David Hauck for this. Fixes bugzilla #270. Fri Dec 17 11:38:09 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * We just reached our 800th external contributor: Andrey Nechypurenko . Andrey gets a free copy of ACE+TAO as a prize! * ace/config-linux-common.h: Wrapped the #define ACE_DEFAULT_SELECT_REACTOR_SIZE with a #if !defined() so that users can override this. Thanks to Charlie Duke for suggesting this. Thu Dec 16 12:26:36 1999 Nanbor Wang * bin/auto_compile_win32.pl: Took out Concurrency Service from the build list. Wed Dec 15 21:24:05 1999 Irfan Pyarali * ace/config-win32-common.h (ACE_DEFAULT_MAX_SOCKET_BUFSIZ): Windows doesn't like 65536 ;-) If 65536 is specified, it is listenly ignored by the OS, i.e., setsockopt does not fail, and you get stuck with the default size of 8k. Tue Dec 14 08:57:03 1999 Vishal Kachroo * ace/OS.h: Added a #ifdef for WINSOCK2_GQOS for removing the errors on NT due to the previous change in ACE_Flow_Spec class. Tue Dec 14 07:49:58 1999 Vishal Kachroo * ace/OS.i: * ace/OS.h: Extended the ACE_Flow_Spec and ACE_QoS classes to accommodate the use of such classes for non-Win32 platforms. These changes are motivated by the new ACE QoS classes that will soon be included with ACE. Mon Dec 13 16:23:22 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/Malloc.{h,cpp}: Made print_alignment_info available for all configuration. Mon Dec 13 02:49:04 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/Memory_Pool.cpp (remap): Commented out the printout of remap message in MMAP_Memory_Pool as this function is called from the signal handler. (It didn't really cause any problem but we shouldn't use ACE_DEBUG from signal handlers anyway.) Mon Dec 13 01:12:00 1999 Irfan Pyarali * ace/WFMO_Reactor.cpp (update_state): make_changes() calls into user code which can request other changes. So keep looping until all requested changes are completed. Thanks to Edan Ayal for reporting this problem! Sun Dec 12 20:10:23 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/config-hpux-10.x.h: Tweaked ACE_MALLOC_PADDING, ACE_MALLOC_ALIGN, and ACE_CONTROL_BLOCK_ALIGN_LONGS manually for HPUX. * tests/Malloc_Test.cpp: Added an ACE_TEST_REMAP_ON_FAULT macro which is not defined on linux only. Linux seems to have problem calling mmap from within the signal handler. Sat Dec 11 15:00:43 1999 Nanbor Wang * tests/Malloc_Test.cpp (main): Alignment information should only be printed when ACE_NDEBUG is not defined. Sat Dec 11 14:27:27 1999 Ossama Othman * ace/Makefile.am (pkginclude_HEADERS): Split header file list into `.h' files (HEADER_FILES) and `.i' (INLINE_FILES). This gets around a limitation on Solaris. Sat Dec 11 10:40:38 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/config-lynxos.h: Added ACE_HAS_TYPENAME_KEYWORD. Fri Dec 11 11:13:54 1999 James Hu * ace/Dirent.i: Constructor with a path passed in was not initializing dirp_. Fri Dec 10 17:29:54 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/Malloc.h: * ace/Malloc.cpp: Added methods for both control block. They are only available for debug version. * tests/Malloc_Test.cpp: Removed temporary debug print out and changed to use . This test no longer forces the mmap to remap. Linux doesn't handle the case correctly. Fri Dec 10 15:37:09 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ACE-INSTALL.html: Clarified how the clone procedure should work. Thank to Jerry D. De Master for suggesting this. * ace/OS.h: Changed the value of O_NDELAY from 0 to 1 on Windows NT. Thanks to Craig Perras for reporting this. Fri Dec 10 15:55:53 1999 Ossama Othman * ace/Configuration.cpp: Added a comment stating that ACE_SYNCH_MUTEX should not be used in the template instantiations because the resulting template instantiation for the single-threaded case already exists in ACE. Thanks to Doug for letting me know about this. * m4/compiler.m4 (CXXFLAGS): Added missing flags that fix Sun C++ 5.0 weirdness on Solaris. Fri Dec 10 14:35:26 1999 Ossama Othman * acconfig.h (_RWSTD_NO_EXCEPTIONS): Sun CC 5.0 without exception support needs this macro to be defined to prevent warnings from occurring due to its broken header. * configure.in: Added a few "checkpoints" where the cache is saved to aid in debugging. (ACE_HAS_THREAD_SPECIFIC_STORAGE): Added check for pthread_keycreate(). Old POSIX threads implementations used pthread_keycreate() instead of pthread_key_create(). (ACE_HAS_SIG_C_FUNC): (ACE_HAS_THR_C_FUNC): (ACE_HAS_THR_C_DEST): Added tests that check if signal handlers, thread start routines, and thread destructors should be declared `extern "C"'. These changes allow clean builds on Solaris 7 with Sun CC 5.0. (ACE_HAS_STDARG_THR_DEST): Check if thread destructor argument to pthread_key_create (or pthread_keycreate) should be of type `void(*)(...)'. * m4/compiler.m4 (_RWSTD_NO_EXCEPTIONS): Define _RWSTD_NO_EXCEPTIONS when compiling on Solaris with Sun CC 5.0 without exceptions. Fri Dec 10 11:43:50 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * tests/run_tests.lst: Disabled the MT_Reactor_Timer_Test until Darrell can fix the timer queue. Fri Dec 10 07:24:12 1999 David L. Levine * ACE-INSTALL.html: on VxWorks, automatic construction/destruction of static objects should be enabled. Thanks to Erik Johannes for reminding me of this. Thu Dec 9 17:18:57 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Acceptor.cpp (handle_input): Only printout a diagnostic message if ACE::debug () > 0. Thanks to Chris Uzdavinis for reporting this. Thu Dec 9 19:55:58 1999 Ossama Othman * acconfig.h: * configure.in: Added checks/support for the ACE_HAS_PTHREADS_UNIX98_EXT macro. * ace/OS.h (ACE_rwlock_t): * ace/OS.i (rw_tryrdlock, rw_trywrlock, rw_rdlock, rw_wrlock, rw_unlock): ACE_LACKS_RWLOCK_T should not imply !ACE_HAS_PTHREADS_UNIX98_EXT because the pthread_rwlock_t type exist despite the fact that rwlock_t doesn't. Thu Dec 09 15:53:20 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/Malloc.cpp: * ace/Malloc.h: * ace/Malloc.i: Separated the control block implementation into "position independent control block" and "lean and mean control block." Each control block implementation has its own definitions of Malloc_Header and Name_Node as inner classes. ACE_Control_Block implements the "old, lean and mean" control structure for ACE_Malloc_T and ACE_PI_Control_Block implements the "new, position independent" control structure for ACE_Malloc_T. Added several macros to finer control the padding and alignment because calculating the padding requires using some operations that can not be evaluated during the compile time and the original padding length calculation don't always work. Usually, you don't have to worry about the padding. But if you are interested in tweaking these parameters, here are some hints. - (ACE_MALLOC_PADDING): defines the minimum size of a Malloc_Header. The actual size of Malloc_Header should always be the a multiple of ACE_MALLOC_ALIGN and may be larger then ACE_MALLOC_PADDING. - (ACE_MALLOC_PADDING_SIZE): define the actual size of the array of long used to pad the ACE_Control_Block::ACE_Malloc_Header. If it is not defined by the user, ACE will try to calculate it for you. If it is defined as 0, there'll be no padding at all. This macro is compiler/platform dependent. - (ACE_CONTROL_BLOCK_ALIGN_LONGS): define the actual size of the array of long used to pad the ACE_Control_Block so that the first Malloc_Header always starts from the alignment boundary. If it is not defined by the user, ACE will try to calculate it for you. If it is defined as 0, there'll be no padding at all. This macro is compiler/platform dependent. - (ACE_PI_MALLOC_PADDING_SIZE): similar to ACE_MALLOC_PADDING_SIZE but applied to ACE_PI_Control_Block::ACE_Malloc_Header. - (ACE_PI_CONTROL_BLOCK_ALIGN_LONGS): similar to ACE_CONTROL_BLOCK_ALIGN_LONGS but applied to ACE_PI_Control_Block. * ace/Malloc_T.cpp: * ace/Malloc_T.h: * ace/Malloc_T.i: Parameterized the type of control block used in ACE_Malloc, which is now renamed to ACE_Malloc_T, as a template parameter so that we can control tradeoff between efficiency and flexibility. Another ACE_Malloc template class was added which simply use ACE_Malloc_T with ACE_Control_Block as its internal control structure so that we don't have to change the existing programs using ACE_Malloc. However, for platforms/compilers using explicit template instantiation, you still need to add the instantiations for the based template class. For example, if you instantiated "ACE_Malloc", you'll need to add "ACE_Malloc_T". Likewise for ACE_Malloc_LIFO_Iterator and ACE_Malloc_FIFO_Iterator. * ace/Based_Pointer_T.h: Renamed arguments "overload" to "o". KCC complained about using "overload" as variable names * ace/Configuration.cpp: * ace/Naming_Context.cpp: * ace/Service_Config.cpp: * ace/System_Time.cpp: * ace/Template_Instantiations.cpp: * docs/tutorials/021/client.cpp: * docs/tutorials/021/server.cpp: * examples/Reactor/Misc/demuxing.dsp: * examples/Shared_Malloc/Malloc.cpp: * examples/Shared_Malloc/test_persistence.cpp: * examples/System_V_IPC/SV_Semaphores/Semaphores.cpp: * examples/System_V_IPC/SV_Semaphores/Semaphores_1.cpp: * examples/System_V_IPC/SV_Semaphores/Semaphores_2.cpp: * performance-tests/TCP/TCP.dsp: * tests/Malloc_Test.cpp: * tests/SV_Shared_Memory_Test.cpp: Added explicit template instantiations for base malloc class in corresponding with the above change. Thu Dec 09 15:40:03 1999 David L. Levine * ace/OS.i (mmap): on LynxOS, fixed use of file_mapping argument. It it was 0, set it equal to the address of an int on the stack. Thanks to Chad Elliott for reporting a problem with ACE_OS::mmap on LynxOS. And thanks to Chad for an explanation of why Malloc_Test and TAO's Naming_Service -f don't work: it's because they require that the mapped object be changed. LynxOS 3.0.x and earlier don't support that. Thu Dec 09 07:30:12 1999 David L. Levine * Makefile (CONTROLLED_FILES): added ChangeLog-99a. Thanks to Pierre Oberson for reporting that it was missing. Wed Dec 8 13:36:59 1999 Ossama Othman * configure.in (ACE_SYS_RESTARTABLE_SYSCALLS): Disabled ACE_SYS_RESTARTABLE_SYSCALLS test. On platforms where it detects restartable system calls, it defines ACE_HAS_SIGNAL_SAFE_OS_CALLS. This causes the ACE_OSCALL* macros in OS.h to use "ACE_LOG_MSG->restart()" before ace/Log_Msg.h is included, ending up in ACE_LOG_MSG being an unknown macro. Currently, none of ACE's supported platforms actually define ACE_HAS_SIGNAL_SAFE_OS_CALLS so disabling this test okay for now. * ace/OS.i (ioctl): Commented out ACE_DEBUG call. ACE_OS should not depend on ACE_Log_Msg in any way. Wed Dec 8 10:15:20 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * bin/clone.cpp: The definition of mk_symbolic_link() was missing the third argument 'int level'. Thanks to Jerry De Master for reporting this. * ace/Synch.h: Added comments to ACE_Thread_Mutex_Guard and ACE_Null_Mutex_Guard explaining that they were obsolete and should be replaced by ACE_Guard and ACE_Guard, respectively. Thanks to Pierre Oberson for reporting this. Tue Dec 7 22:53:01 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * netsvcs/lib/Client_Logging_Handler.cpp (send): Clarified that *someday* we'll improve the implementation to queue data when a connection is lost and automagically reinitiate the connection. Thanks to David X Callaway for motivating this. Tue Dec 07 22:14:15 1999 David L. Levine * docs/ACE-guidelines.html: added a guideline about signal handlers. Tue Dec 7 21:39:42 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/OS.i: Fixed the definition of ACE_NETDBCALL_RETURN so that memcpy (TARGET,ace_result_,SIZE); is changed to memcpy (TARGET,ace_result_, SIZE < sizeof(TYPE) ? SIZE : sizeof(TYPE)); This fixes a bug with UnixWare. Thanks to Phil Mesnier for reporting this. Tue Dec 07 21:20:37 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/ace_dll.dsp: * ace/ace_lib.dsp: Added ace.rc to project files. One can use GetFileVersionInfo on Win32 to get the ACE library version info now. Thanks to David Hauck for suggesting this. Tue Dec 07 15:27:24 1999 David L. Levine * docs/ACE-guidelines.html: added guideline to use THR_BOUND for time-critical threads. Thanks to Marina for reminding me about this, and for running some experiments on Solaris that demonstrate that it's necessary (and really works :-). Tue Dec 07 13:25:53 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/Based_Pointer_T.{h,cpp}: Added two constructors that take a base pointer for base_offset_ calculation. They can be used when we already know the base address of the pointer to avoid an extra lookup from the Based_Pointer_Repository. * ace/Malloc_T.i (init_malloc_header_ptr): Changed to initialize the pointer using the address of control block. Notice that the address of the control block should never change during the lifetime of ACE_Malloc. Thanks to Irfan for noticing the performance issue. Mon Dec 06 21:16:53 1999 Irfan Pyarali * ace/SOCK_Dgram.cpp (send): Added missing timed send. Thanks to Yuval Yosef for motivating this. * ace/SOCK_IO.h (ACE_SOCK_IO): Most methods now support an optional timeout parameter. * ace/SOCK_Stream.h (ACE_SOCK_Stream): All methods now support an optional timeout parameter. Also fixed the parameter type in recv_urg and send_urg to be size_t instead of int. * ace/ACE: - All the I/O function were made consistent in ACE. This included matching send and recv functions, all of which now support timeouts. - Many of the timed functions, e.g., ACE::readv() and ACE::sendto(), were changed such that the case was made common between the code that expected OS provided timed functions and the other where the timed function was simulated by ACE. - Certain file I/O operation were made simple by removing the extra parameter. Timeouts are not supported in file I/O. In some cases, e.g., the timed writev and readv functions, the function was removed since it was not necessary as taking the parameter made it redundant with the function in ACE_OS. - The "_n" methods were given a performance boost when they are used with timeouts. We only set the handle into non-blocking mode only once rather than for every iteration in the loop. - Added send/recv/send_n/recv/recv_n methods that take a message block as the data container. - Here is the description of the updated functions from the documentation: ________________________________________ The parameter in the following methods indicates how long to blocking trying to transfer data. If == 0, then the call behaves as a normal send/recv call, i.e., for blocking sockets, the call will block until action is possible; for non-blocking sockets, EWOULDBLOCK will be returned if no action is immediately possible. If != 0, the call will wait until the relative time specified in * elapses. Errors are reported by -1 and 0 return values. If the operation times out, -1 is returned with . If it succeeds the number of bytes transferred is returned. The "_n" I/O methods keep looping until all the data has been transferred. These methods also work for sockets in non-blocking mode i.e., they keep looping on EWOULDBLOCK. is used to make sure we keep making progress, i.e., the same timeout value is used for every I/O operation in the loop and the timeout is not counted down. If the transfer times out, the number of bytes transferred so far are returned. Methods with parameter are I/O vector variants of the I/O operations. ________________________________________ * ace/config-win32-common.h: Set IOV_MAX on Win32 to be 1024. It seems like Win32 does not have a limit on the number of buffers that can be transferred by the scatter/gather type of I/O functions, e.g., WSASend and WSARecv. We are arbitrarily setting this to be 1k for now. The typically use case is to create an I/O vector array of size IOV_MAX on the stack and then filled in. Note that we probably don't want too big a value for IOV_MAX since it may mostly go to waste or the size of the activation record may become excessively large. * ace/OS: The "faked" readv() in ACE for operating systems without it was calling read_n(). This was changed to call read() since readv() makes no guarantee that everything requested will be read. Same changes applied for writev(). send_n() does not belong in the OS class. It belongs in the ACE class. Therefore, it was moved. read_n() is only called for file handles (and not for socket handles). Therefore, there is no point in checking for EWOULDBLOCK. Same change was made to write_n(). * ace/Handle_Set.h (ACE_Handle_Set): Added an explicit fdset() function to get to the fd_set *. This eliminates the need for the stupid cast operator. Mon Dec 6 21:13:08 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Configuration.cpp (set_string_value): When setting a value in the registry, the specified length must include the NUL terminating character. Thanks to Chris Hafey for reporting this. Mon Dec 6 11:06:43 1999 Ossama Othman * m4/acinclude.m4 (ACE_TRY_COMPILE): Make choice of compiler flags to use dependent on the current autoconf test language. This fixes a problem with C++ compiler flags potentially passed as C flags to libtool. (ACE_USE_TEMP_FILE): Added checks for existing files that should be directories and vice versa. If the file passed as argument is in a directory and the directory doesn't exist then create the directory. In order to be as general as possible a script fragment was implemented with the same functionality as "mkdir -p" because "mkdir -p" may not be portable. * m4/threads.m4 (ACE_SEARCH_THREAD_FLAGS): Make choice of compiler flags to use dependent on the current autoconf test language. This fixes a problem with C++ compiler flags potentially passed as C flags to libtool. Mon Dec 06 08:25:22 1999 David L. Levine * include/makeinclude/platform_sunos5_sunc++.GNU: added more comments about support of 64-bit binaries with Sun CC 5.0. Thanks to Dani Flexer for providing them. Mon Dec 6 07:55:05 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/config-sunos5.7.h: Added several new #defines needed to port ACE to 64 bit Solaris. Thanks to Dani Flexer for these. * ace/ACE.cpp: Changed the implementation of count_interfaces() to handle the fact that size_t is a 64 bit type but the parameter to ioctl needs to be an int, which according to LP64 is 32 bits. Thanks to Dani Flexer for reporting this. * netsvcs/lib/Client_Logging_Handler.cpp (handle_signal): If SIGPIPE occurs, ACE_Client_Logging_Handler::handle_signal() returns -1, thus removing svc handler from reactor. Since svc handler is implemented as a singleton here, all next incoming SPIPE connections operate on object that is already destroyed -> SIGSEGV/SIGBUS. Therefore, we now return 0 in handle_signal(). Thanks to Alexander Dergatch for reporting this. * netsvcs/lib/Server_Logging_Handler_T.cpp (svc): The following loop while ((result = this->handle_input ()) > 0) continue; causes server thread to leave its execution loop, because handle_input() always returns 0 or -1. This should be replaced with while ((result = this->handle_input ()) == 0) Thanks to Alexander Dergatch for reporting this. Sun Dec 05 21:54:47 1999 David L. Levine * ace/Dump.cpp (ACE_ODB ctor): initialize current_size_ data member, so that examples/misc/test_dump will pass on MSVC 6.0/NT 4.0, at least. Thanks to Soren Ilsoe for reporting this. Sun Dec 5 16:50:37 1999 Ossama Othman * ace/OS.h: Some compilers were picky about the circular dependency fix. Moved inclusion of ace/Log_Msg.h after ace/OS.i yet again. Sat Dec 04 21:14:37 1999 Nanbor Wang * tests/Malloc_Test.cpp (init_test): Need to call init_acquire to make sure the old mapfile does get removed. Added more printout items in the normally disabled debug section. Sat Dec 04 19:45:49 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/Memory_Pool.cpp: Conditionally bind/unbind the Pagefile_Memory_Pool with the Based_Pointer_Repository depends on whether position independent pointers are used or not. Sat Dec 4 16:59:08 1999 Ossama Othman Circular dependency fixes/updates: * ace/OS.h: Include "ace/Log_Msg.h" before "ace/OS.i" because the methods in ACE_OS depend on ACE_Log_Msg for output and error reporting. * ace/Log_Record.h: Include "ace/OS.h" instead of "ace/ACE.h." OS.h is needed to pull in the definition of ACE_Export. ACE.h was overkill. This change is at the core of the circular dependency fix. * ace/Log_Record.cpp: Include "ace/ACE.cpp" to pull in definition of ACE::log2(). The above changes made the following changes necessary. They also corrected an annoying circular dependency problem that was occurring when using an automatically generated ace/config.h. The below changes are actually legitimate fixes since the source files in question unnecessarily relied on other headers to pull in ACE class definitions. * ace/DLL.cpp: Include "ace/ACE.h" because ACE_DLL::open() uses ACE::ldfind(). * ace/Functor.h: Include "ace/ACE.h" instead of "ace/OS.h" because "ace/Functor.i" needs the hash functions in the ACE class. All of the above changes nicely reduced the number of source files that depend on ace/ACE.{h,i}! * ace/Makefile: * apps/gperf/src/Makefile: Updated dependencies. Fri Dec 3 21:51:38 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/Malloc_T.cpp (shared_malloc): Changed the for loop to while(1) so the compilers can identify the control will never fall off the end of the loop and apply ACE_NOTREACHED to the final return statement. Fri Dec 03 12:14:31 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/Malloc_T.i (init_malloc_header_ptr): Applied ACE_UNUSED_ARG when we are not using position independent pointers. * ace/Malloc_T.cpp (shared_malloc): Split the structural exception try block into two to avoid warnings from the OSF compiler. Thanks to David for reporting this. Thu Dec 2 22:42:53 1999 James Hu * ace/TP_Reactor.cpp: Instead of setting suspend_set_ and wait_set_ both all the time, try to determine whether or not the handler is suspended and choose one of the sets to do the bit_ops on. Thu Dec 2 22:41:53 1999 Yamuna Krishnamurthy * ace/OS.i: Added the bug fix to the SIO_GET_QOS call in ACE::ioctl () for RC2 release. This involved removing explicit buffer allocation for the provider specific buffer and just allocating one contiguos buffer for the QOS structure. Thu Dec 02 18:16:27 1999 James Hu * ace/Filecache.cpp: Make it possible to remove something from the Filecache. Thu Dec 02 18:03:27 1999 Nanbor Wang * tests/Malloc_Test.cpp (parent): Before binding the name "bar", do a series of small malloc and a huge malloc to make sure the child process will segfault and the remapping is tested on the child process. * ace/Memory_Pool.h: * ace/Memory_Pool.cpp: Added a no-op method to Local_Memory_Pool because we might call remap from ACE_Malloc on Win32. (Win32 only) Added a new function that takes a pointer to an EXCEPTION_POINTERS and is responsible to determine if remapping of the memory map file is required or not. * ace/Malloc_T.h: * ace/Malloc_T.i (init_malloc_header_ptr): Added a new inline function which simply initializes a (position independent) pointer pointing to a Malloc_Header. This is required because the placement new in this function makes MSVC think we are creating a new object and disallow the use of ACE_SEH_TRY in functions that use placement new. * ace/Malloc_T.cpp: Added the use of ACE_SEH_TRY in several ACE_Malloc::shared_* methods so we can catch the potential access violations and force remapping of memory maps. On UNIX, this is done thru in Memory_Pool. Thu Dec 2 09:17:02 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/config-win32-borland.h: Apparently, the Borland BC4 compiler lacks operator placement delete, so I added #define ACE_LACKS_PLACEMENT_OPERATOR_DELETE to handle this case. Thanks to Mike Gingell . Wed Dec 1 22:26:06 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * tests/MM_Shared_Memory_Test.cpp: Make sure to force the test to use System V Semaphores if the OS platform supports POSIX semaphores natively (since these don't have the right semantics for this test). Thanks to Steve Huston for reporting this bug. This fix should clear BUG ID 382. Wed Dec 01 06:16:34 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/Malloc.h (ACE_MALLOC_PADDING): Restored default value to 1. Added a new macro ACE_MALLOC_HEADER_SIZE which serves the same function as ACE_MALLOC_PADDING (both specify the minimum malloc header size) but ACE_MALLOC_HEADER_SIZE is normalized to be multiple of ACE_MALLOC_ALIGN. (ACE_CONTROL_BLOCK_ALIGN_LONGS): Changed back to use ACE_MALLOC_ALIGN to calculate the starting malloc header alignment. * tests/Malloc_Test.cpp: Expanded the memory offset between parent and child mmap base address so there'll be no overlap even when we use a larger ACE_MALLOC_PADDING. Wed Dec 1 02:10:51 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * tests/Auto_IncDec_Test.cpp: The main() function was missing a return type. Also, don't run the test with output logged to stderr. Thanks to David Levine for reporting this. Tue Nov 30 16:11:52 1999 Steve Huston * tests/run_tests.sh: Made the check for libDLL_Test use a configurable suffix rather than hardcoded .so so it works on platforms like HP-UX (which uses .sl). Tue Nov 30 14:24:31 1999 Ossama Othman * acconfig.h: Minor cosmetic updates. * configure.in: Only enable POSIX semaphore support if process shared semaphores are supported. Presumably process shared semaphores are only available if the _POSIX_THREAD_PROCESS_SHARED macro is defined by the platform. [Bug 304] Tue Nov 30 00:22:48 1999 Nanbor Wang * tests/Malloc_Test.cpp: Changed to store the mmap allocator in an auto_ptr instead of as a static object so we can be absolutely sure about the creation order. Added an init_test method which creates a mmap memory pool and releases it immediately to make sure the test won't crash/deadlock due to previous crashes. Mon Nov 29 16:36:06 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/Malloc.h (ACE_MALLOC_PADDING): Changed the default value of ACE_MALLOC_PADDING to 16 to avoid some some alignment problem. Fixed the padding size calculation in ACE_Malloc_Header. * tests/Malloc_Test.cpp (main): Added some debug printout which is commented out for now (they are not used for regular test.) Mon Nov 29 14:34:16 1999 Ossama Othman * ace/config-win32-borland.h: * ace/config-win32-common.h: The ACE_HAS_BROKEN_IMPLICIT_CONST_CAST macro I previously removed is used in TAO's IDL_Test. Thanks to Jeff for pointing this out. * ace/OS.i (sema_init): The call to sem_init() for the process shared case incorrectly used USYNC_THREAD for the second argument. For the USYNC_PROCESS case, the second argument to ::sem_init() should be "type == USYNC_PROCESS" since it will evaluate to "1" in this case. A conditional is used since some platforms may not define USYNC_PROCESS to be a non-zero value. Mon Nov 29 12:15:56 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * tests/Auto_IncDec_Test.cpp: Updated this test to use multiple threads, if available. Thanks to Edan Ayal for this. Mon Nov 29 11:47:55 1999 Ossama Othman * ace/OS.h: Backed out the inline related changes I made. Some compilers have a problem with them. Sun Nov 28 20:03:03 1999 Ossama Othman * ace/OS.i (sema_init): According UNIX Network Programming V2 by Stevens, sem_init() is currently not required to return zero on success, but it *does* return -1 upon failure. For this reason, check for failure by comparing to -1, instead of checking for success by comparing to zero. Sun Nov 28 19:05:31 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/Process_Manager.cpp (open): Fixed an ASYS_TEXT usage. ASYS_TEXT can not enclose several string literals. Sun Nov 28 18:09:49 1999 Ossama Othman * m4/acinclude.m4 (ACE_USE_TEMP_FILE): Check that the source directory is not the current directory before moving a file in the current directory out of the way. Previously an attempt to move the same file out of the way was performed to twice. Sun Nov 28 17:06:00 1999 Ossama Othman * acconfig.h: Added ACE_HAS_POSITION_INDEPENDENT_MALLOC macro. * configure.in: Dropped AC_ISC_POSIX macro in favor of an AC_CHECK_LIB strerror test. Disabled exception handling support by default. Added "--enable-pi-malloc" configure script option to enable/disable ACE's position independent malloc feature. By default, this feature will be enabled. Added a run-time test for sem_open(). glibc() apparently defines a stub for this function in the pthread library but there is no entry in for it. As such, the configure script assumed that it is a working function. It turns out it is not (on Linux with glibc <= 2.1.2). Generalized/improved setrlimit and getrusage tests that check if the first argument is an enum. The tests now determine exactly what the enum type is. Previously, the test was specific to Linux/glibc platforms. Fixed some tests that didn't initialize a const variable before it was used. Added a test that checks the integrity of the generated configuration. The test attempts to compile ace/OS.cpp. If it fails then the rest of ACE won't compile, indicating that the automatic configuration wasn't successful. Upon failure, some diagnostic information is output, and a request to submit a bug report is made. Flush the cached configuration test results to the cache file. This is mainly useful for configure script debugging purposes. * ace/Log_Msg.h (ACE_Log_Msg): Added additional spaces before comments describing each format specifier since the single quote "'" at the beginning of each description was interpreted as a troff comment. Thanks to Kevin Dalley for pointing this out and suggesting a fix. * ace/OS.h: Consolidated some ACE_INLINE macro preprocessor conditionals. Moved inclusion of Log_Msg.h and OS.i to the end of the file in case some declarations or definitions found earlier in OS.h are ever needed in the future by these two files. * ace/Trace.h: * ace/Trace.cpp: Removed inclusion of Log_Msg.h from Trace.cpp and included OS.h in Trace.h. OS.h is needed for the definition of ACE_Export. * ace/config-win32-borland.h: * ace/config-win32-common.h: Removed ACE_HAS_BROKEN_IMPLICIT_CONST_CAST macro. This macro isn't used anywhere in ACE or TAO. * ace/Makefile: Updated dependencies. * bin/am_edit: This script is generates IDL source file targets and dependencies in Makefile.in files. It is essentially the same script that the KDE developers use for their IDL sources except that it is has been customised for TAO_IDL generated sources. Thanks to Stephan Kulow for pointing out the availability of this script. * bin/make_release: Archive list should be concatenated instead replaced. This list is currently only used by the MD5 checksum generation support. * bin/generate_html_windex: Created this script to generate the acewindex.html file. It generates the acewindex.html directly from the man pages instead of an intermediate windex file. Some platforms don't have a "catman -w" equivalent command since the man database is generated automatically by the OS (e.g. Debian GNU/Linux). This script allows the acewindex.html file to be generated on such platforms. The windex file (not acewindex.html) isn't generated but this typically isn't a problem since it is not the ACE install system's responsibility to (re)generate a windex file at install time. It is up to the sysadmin to do so. Thanks to Kevin Dalley for motivating the creation of this script. * bin/bootstrap: The list of ROFF and HTML man pages is now automatically generated and inserted into the appropriate Makefile.am file in this script. This allows the removal of the non-portable "$(shell ...)" expression from the Makefile.am files. It also improves build performance in the man directories since the list is only evaluate at bootstrap time instead of each time the directory is built. * man/Makefile.am (acewindex.html): Use the newly created `generate_html_windex' script to create the acewindex.html file since not all platforms support "catman -w" windex file generation. * man/html/Makefile.am (html_DATA): * man/man3/Makefile.am (man_MANS): Removed the commands that generate the man pages lists. The `bootstrap' script now takes care of substituting what each of the Makefile.am variables should contain. * m4/acinclude.m4: Improved ACE_USE_TEMP_FILE macro. It now checks for the existence of a file with the same name as the temporary file in the current directory, in addition to the top-level source directory. Moved the setrlimit and getrusage enum tests into Autoconf macros in this file. The macros are ACE_CHECK_SETRLIMIT_ENUM and ACE_CHECK_GETRUSAGE_ENUM. Fixed AC_SYS_RESTARTABLE_SYSCALLS and added it to this file. The patched version compiles and runs, whereas the existing/old version doesn't even compile on some platforms. The AC_SYS_RESTARTABLE_SYSCALLS test is broken in GNU Autoconf 2.13. I use this test to determine if the ACE_HAS_SIGNAL_SAFE_OS_CALLS macro should be defined for ACE. I patched it so that it works, at least platforms that expect a signal handler that expects an int argument. * m4/subsets.m4: Disable building of all subset libraries by default. Sun Nov 28 09:45:36 1999 Darrell Brunsch * netsvcs/lib/Logging_Strategy.cpp: ACE_Logging_Strategy::fini () now returns a value. Sun Nov 28 02:41:02 1999 Nanbor Wang * tests/Reactor_Notify_Test.cpp (run_test): Only print out the error message when the notification pipe is not disable. Otherwise, when the notification pipe gets disabled, the event loop depends purely on the OS scheduling policy to determine how many times to gets to run. Since the Supplier_Task removes itself from the reactor, there could be no active event handler available in the reactor when the gets called if the task finishes before the event loop has a chance to finish its iterations. Another way to solve this is to add a thr_yield after every notification but that seems to defeat the intention of the test. Thanks to Ivan Murphy for reporting the false error output. Sat Nov 27 22:06:26 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/OS.cpp: Defined ACE_ENDTHREADEX and ACE_BEGINTHREADEX to use ExitThread and BeginThread for WinCE 2.11 and above. Thanks to Peter C. Chien for the tip. * ace/ace_ce_dll.dsp: Reworked for WinCE 2.11. More configurations are added and the distributed token related files are removed from the project. * ace/OS.{h,cpp}: WinCE 2.11 and above does implement exit method so we don't need to provide our own for them. * ace/config-WinCE.h: Updated configuration settings for WinCE 2.11. * ace/Memory_Pool.{h,i}: Added the method for accessing the base address information of the memory pool. Sat Nov 27 18:36:48 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * tests/Priority_Buffer_Test.cpp (consumer): Revised the test so that it doesn't bother to check the priority in the ACE_ASSERT macro if we're sending a shutdown message. Thanks to Ivan Murphy and Darrell Brunsch for narrowing this down. Thu Nov 25 13:32:00 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * netsvcs/lib/Client_Logging_Handler.cpp (parse_args): Make sure to free() the host or logger key before calling strdup()! * netsvcs/lib/Logging_Strategy.cpp (parse_args): Fixed up this code so that we correctly allocated and deallocate filename_ using strdup()/free() to prevent weird memory problems. Thanks to Alexander Dergatch for reporting this. Sat Nov 27 15:01:44 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * ACE version 5.0.9 released. Sat Nov 27 14:59:27 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * bin/make_release: There was a non-scoped variable. Thu Nov 25 13:24:37 1999 Darrell Brunsch * tests/Capabilities_Test.cpp: Changed a variable from int to ACE_HANDLE. Thu Nov 25 02:17:34 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/Malloc.h: Added back some apparent bug fixes during the alignment change. Thu Nov 25 01:41:33 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/Malloc.h: Removed the alignment change for now. Wed Nov 24 14:41:14 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/Process.i (wait): Changed to use the process handle to wait for process termination. * ace/OS.h: * ace/OS.i (wait,waitpid): Added an extra argument that takes the process handle of the waited process. On Win32, is ignored if the is not equal to 0. Passing the process is prefer on Win32 because using to wait on the project doesn't always work correctly if the waited process has already terminated. Wed Nov 24 08:30:52 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * examples/Shared_Malloc/test_malloc.cpp (malloc_recurse): Fixed the AMS macro to be ACE_MALLOC_STATS. Thanks to David Levine for reporting this. Tue Nov 23 12:47:39 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Malloc.h: Modified the definition and use of ACE_MALLOC_PADDING_SIZE so that it works correctly and the code that uses it compiles... Thanks to Alexander Belopolsky for reporting this. * ace/Malloc: Replaced the AMS macro, which polluted the global namespace, with ACE_MALLOC_STATS, which doesn't... Thanks to Alexander Belopolsky for reporting this. * ace/OS.h: Modified ACE_MIN macro so that it uses the > operator to be consistent with the ACE_MAX macro. Thanks to Derek Dominish for reporting this. * tests/Malloc_Test: Updated the Malloc_Test so that it'll allocate and test doubles to make sure they work correctly. * ace/Malloc.h: Modified the alignment logic to make things work properly for datatypes like doubles. Thanks to Alexander Belopolsky for working this out. Tue Nov 23 12:02:53 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/OS.i: Moved the inline methods for sec()/usec()/msec() so that are defined *before* they are used... Tue Nov 23 11:34:40 1999 Nanbor Wang * tests/Malloc_Test.cpp (myallocator): Applied ACE_TEXT to several malloc argument. Thanks to Ivan Murphy for reporting this. Tue Nov 23 11:06:13 1999 Nanbor Wang * tests/CDR_File_Test.cpp (run_test): Changed to LPCTSTR so the test compile with UNICODE. Thanks to Ivan Murphy for reporting this. Mon Nov 22 18:02:19 1999 Irfan Pyarali * ace/Strategies_T.cpp: * ace/Cached_Connect_Strategy_T.cpp: There was a strange interaction in find_or_create_svc_handler_i() because of these two changes: Fri Nov 12 00:30:41 1999 Irfan Pyarali and Mon Jul 19 22:46:54 1999 Irfan Pyarali Basically, was assigned to the newly created svc_handler. It had, however, not been added to the connection map nor had it been assigned a hint or recycler, i.e., it was partially initialized. However, we let go of the connector lock during the OS level connect call, hence exposing the partially initialized svc_handler to other threads. The solution is to use a temporary variable until the svc_handler is completely initialized. After this we can assign to . Note that making a new svc_handler, connecting remotely, binding to the map, and assigning of the hint and recycler should be atomic to the outside world. Mon Nov 22 17:06:34 1999 Darrell Brunsch * bin/auto_compile_win32.pl: Changed the project file for ImplRepo_Service. Thanks to Derek Dominish for pointing this out. Mon Nov 22 14:15:23 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * examples/Configuration/config_test.cpp: ACE-ified this example. * ace/OS.i: Replaced all the uses of ACE_Time_Value private methods within the overloaded global relational operator to use inline methods. This change should work around bugs with MSVC++. Thanks to Alok Gupta for reporting this. * ace/Service_Config.cpp (parse_args): Reverted the behavior of parse_args() so that it doesn't return an error when it runs across an option that it doesn't recognize. This is necessary to support certain use-cases where the Service Configurator is part of an application-specific configuration process. We do, however, print a warning message if ACE::debug() > 0. Thanks to Ivan Murphy for reporting this and suggesting a fix. Sat Nov 20 10:16:07 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Configuration.cpp: Moved DEFBUFSIZE into the Win32-specific part of the code and changed the name to ACE_DEFAULT_BUFSIZE so that it won't conflict with any global names. Thanks to David Levine for reporting this. Fri Nov 19 17:25:13 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace: Double checked that ACE builds correctly when threads are disabled. * ace/Local_Tokens.cpp (client_id): Had to futz with the code a bit to get it to work for both the threaded and non-threaded case. * ace/Activation_Queue.h: Added a #define of ACE_Activation_List to ACE_Activation_Queue to be compatible with the terminology used in the POSA2 book! * ace/Message_Queue_T: Moved message_bytes(size_t) and message_length(size_t) from the *.i file to the *.cpp file to workaround bugs with SunC++ 5.0. Thanks to Rick Weisner and John Tucker for reporting this problem and providing the fix. * ace/Configuration.cpp: There were inconsistencies in the explicit template instantiations where ACE_Thread_Mutex should have been ACE_SYNCH_MUTEX so that the code will work when threading is disabled. In addition, we must be careful to conditionally compile certain ACE_Allocator<> and ACE_Malloc<> template instantiations since they are only valid when ACE_HAS_THREADS is defined. * include/makeinclude/platform_irix6.x_sgic++.GNU, * ace/Local_Tokens, * ace/Synch_T.i: Made a number of minor changes so that ACE will compile/work when threading is not enabled. Thanks to Extern Chatterji for reporting this. * ace/Message_Block.h: Clarified the comment for space(). Thanks to Eric Newton for reporting this. Fri Nov 19 02:21:11 1999 Darrell Brunsch * ace/Configuration.h: * ace/Configuration.cpp: Altered the Unicode macros used so it compiles in the two Unicode configurations. Thanks to Ruibiao Qiu for noticing this. Thu Nov 18 22:49:09 1999 David L. Levine * tests/run_tests.lst: DISABLED Process_Manager_Test because it fails on Solaris and HPUX_aCC. Thu Nov 18 20:47:49 1999 Krishnakumar Elakkara Pathayapura * THANKS: added Marcelo Matus Thu Nov 18 19:44:04 1999 David L. Levine * ace/OS.i (ACE_TSS_Emulation::tss_base,ts_object): on VxWorks, if ACE_VXWORKS_SPARE is 0, allocate a TSS array (and zero it out) in tss_object () instead of tss_base (). This allow tss_base () to still be used on the left-hand side. The only way that tss_base () should be called on VxWorks with 0 ACE_VXWORKS_SPARE is through ts_object (). Thanks to Dave Steele and Dale Wood for further discussion and insight. Thu Nov 18 19:20:16 1999 Ossama Othman * ace/OS.h (SEM_FAILED): Changed SEM_FAILED from ((sem_t *) 0) to ((sem_t *) -1). Although it makes more sense to have a zero fail value, it appears that many OSes are still brain damaged enough to use -1 instead. This change is consistent with what ACE expected as the sem_open() fail value prior to my updates. Thu Nov 18 16:37:55 1999 Ossama Othman * ace/OS.h: If a platform has named POSIX semaphores, define SEM_FAILED if it isn't already defined. * ace/OS.i (sema_init): Cast MAP_FAILED to (sem_t *) when comparing to sem_t pointer. Check sem_open() failure against SEM_FAILED macro instead of ((sem_t *) -1) since sem_open() in some named POSIX semaphore implementations returns ((sem_t *) 0) on failure (e.g. glibc 2.1.x on Linux). Thu Nov 18 08:19:39 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/SOCK_Dgram_Bcast.cpp: Some systems seem to generate 0 (AF_UNDEF) for the sa_family, even when there are no errors! Thus, we only print an error if this is not the case, or if we're in "debugging" mode. Thanks to Extern Chatterji for reporting this. Thu Nov 18 12:08:20 1999 Balachandran Natarajan * ace/Configuration.cpp: Added missing template instantiations for SunCC5.0 Thu Nov 18 11:49:39 1999 Ossama Othman * bin/make_release: Added MD5 checksum generation support. Each ACE/TAO archive will now have an associated file that contains its MD5 checksum. [Bug 48] Thu Nov 18 08:19:39 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Log_Msg.cpp: Added a new flag to win32 FormatMessage call, which removes unneccessary newlines in resulting message. So whole logged message fits on one line and logs are then nicer and easier to parse. Thanks to Martin Krumpolec for contributing this. Wed Nov 17 22:45:01 1999 David L. Levine * ace/OS.i (ACE_TSS_Emulation::tss_base): on VxWorks, if ACE_VXWORKS_SPARE is 0, allocate a TSS array. This can happen if the task wasn't spawned through ACE, but then tries to use ACE's TSS emulation. Thanks to Dave Steele for the excellent detective work and patch. * ace/config-vxworks5.x.h: added ACE_VXWORKS_SPARE, defaulted to spare4. Wed Nov 17 17:36:25 1999 Steve Huston * ace/config-hpux-11.x-hpc++.h: Added ACE_LACKS_PLACEMENT_OPERATOR_DELETE for aC++. This is a known bug by HP, at least at aC++ A.03.10. Wed Nov 17 16:33:40 1999 Ossama Othman * ace/Makefile.am: Added Auto_IncDec_T.*, Capabilities.* and Configuration.* to list of sources. * tests/Makefile.am: Added Auto_IncDec_Test, Capabilities_Test and Process_Manager_Test to list of tests. * tests/Capabilities_Test.cpp: Create the config file within the test itself instead of having a seperate config file. This makes the test self-contained, and also allows the test to be run in a build environment where the sources are in a different directory from the binaries (e.g. a "VPATH" build). This change was motivated by a problem that occurred in an ACE+autoconf VPATH build. * tests/Capabilities_Test.cfg: Removed this file. It is now created at run-time by the Capablities_Test itself. Wed Nov 17 13:45:25 1999 Ossama Othman * acconfig.h: * configure.in: * ace/OS.h: * ace/OS.i: Added support for two additional macros, namely ACE_HAS_LSEEK64 and ACE_LACKS_LLSEEK_PROTOTYPE. This make it easier to customize llseek support for a given platform. * ace/config-linux-common.h: Define ACE_HAS_LSEEK64 and ACE_LACKS_LSEEK64_PROTOTYPE for glibc 2.1.x, and define ACE_HAS_LLSEEK and ACE_LACKS_LLSEEK_PROTOTYPE for glibc 2.0.x. [Bug 375] Wed Nov 17 07:36:04 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * tests: Removed the Cache_Manager_Test.cpp since Cache_Manager.* is no longer in ACE. Thanks to Airat A. Sadreev for reporting this. * netsvcs/lib/Client_Logging_Handler.cpp (fini): Added a void * cast to the arguments to ACE_OS::free(). Thanks to David Levine for reporting this. Tue Nov 16 07:58:11 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * netsvcs/lib/Client_Logging_Handler.cpp (fini): Make sure to dynamically allocate the logger_key_ and server_host_ so that we don't end up with weird memory problems. Thanks to Alexander Dergatch for reporting this. * ace/config-irix6.x-common.h: Added ACE_LACKS_PLACEMENT_OPERATOR_DELETE to keep Irix compilers from complaining! Thanks to David for reporting this. Mon Nov 15 20:44:04 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/OS.cpp (inherit_log_msg): Added a comment explaining why we don't inherit the callback when a new thread is created - since all hell would break loose otherwise if it came off the stack! Thanks to Sangwoo Jin for motivating this clarification. Mon Nov 15 19:54:36 1999 Ossama Othman * ace-config.in: Added missing "-lACE" to the library list. Thanks to Benedikt Eric Heinen for pointing this out. Mon Nov 15 13:28:03 1999 Luther J Baker * ace/Log_Msg.cpp (priority_mask_): Added delete_ostream_(0) to ctor. Mon Nov 15 09:33:49 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Synch.h (ACE_Mutex): changed protected: to public: in ACE_Mutex so that certain compilers would be happy. Thanks to Ivan Murphy for reporting this. * ace/Configuration.h (ACE_Configuration_Section_Key): The reserved word "operator" has a typo and is typed as "Operator". Thanks to Andy Gokhale for reporting this. Sun Nov 14 20:20:13 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Configuration.h: Improved the ACE-ification of this file. Sun Nov 14 18:13:37 1999 Ossama Othman * ACE-configuration.txt: Updated with information about bootstrapping autoconf support in ACE since it is currently not enabled by default in ACE. * configure.in: User must now specify the "--enable-maintainer-mode" configure script option in order to be able to use the configure script. If an attempt is made to run the configure script with this option, the configure script will immediately exit with a summary that states that ACE stock build procedure should be used until autoconf support is fully integrated into ACE. Once autoconf support is fully integrated into ACE, this requirement will be removed. Sun Nov 14 15:22:29 1999 Darrell Brunsch * ace/Configuration.cpp: Fixed a statement unreachable in expand_path (). Sat Nov 13 19:55:17 1999 Luther J Baker * ace/SString.cpp (next): Removed a buggy line for Tokenizer. Thanks to Sangwoo Jin for reporting this. Sat Nov 13 18:38:21 1999 Darrell Brunsch * ace/Configuration.cpp: Fixed some compiler problems with the ACE_Malloc template instantiations and pointer casting. Sat Nov 13 11:29:20 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * tests/run_tests.lst: Re-enabled the Process_Manager_Test to see if it Dave Madden's fixes worked. Fri Nov 12 21:26:58 1999 David L. Levine * ace/OS.h: without threads, added #ifndef protection for all of the THR_* macros that didn't already have it. And, with ACE_HAS_PRIOCNTL on sun, #include before #including sys/rtpriocntl.h. That ensures that the THR_* macros are defined first by the system header file. Thanks to Timothy Canham for reporting this. Also, changed a couple of #includes to "ace/sys_conf.h", because that file is not a system header. Fri Nov 12 00:30:41 1999 Irfan Pyarali * ace/Connector.cpp (connect_i): Since we should change only in the confines on the connector lock, it is not proper to use the copy of and assign it to when the connect succeeds. The removal of should not change the algorithm (famous last words ;) since not really be considered in the case of failures. * ace/Strategies_T.cpp (ACE_Cached_Connect_Strategy): * ace/Cached_Connect_Strategy_T.cpp: If the new connection fails, close out the svc_handler and set it to zero. Also in cleanup_hint_i(), reset the <*act_holder> in the confines and protection of the lock. * ace/Svc_Handler.cpp (cleanup_hint): Expanded the interface to allow the resetting of the in an atomic manner wrt the lock of the connector. The above changes should fix BUG 310. Thanks to Eric Mitchell for reporting it. Fri Nov 12 12:13:29 1999 Steve Huston * ace/config-aix-4.x.h: Made _BSD_INCLUDES and ACE_HAS_CHARPTR_DL be defined only for pre-AIX 4.3. Thanks to Greg Siebers for these changes. Set ACE_LACKS_PLACEMENT_OPERATOR_DELETE for IBM C++ 3.6 and prior. Fri Nov 12 11:50:19 1999 Nanbor Wang * ACE-INSTALL.html: Added ACE lib/dll naming rules. Fri Nov 12 10:02:10 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/config-win32-common.h, * ace/config-win32.h: Fixed inconsistent use of <> and "" for ACE-specific #includes. Thanks to Dave Delano for reporting this. Fri Nov 12 08:25:25 1999 David L. Levine * ace/Log_Msg.cpp (open,log,dump): ensure that there is a message_queue_ by calling get_lock () in multithreaded applications. This solves the problem where the first thread that uses a Log_Msg terminates before any other threads create a Log_Msg instance. Thanks to Mike Mazurek for reporting this. Thu Nov 11 20:46:29 1999 Ossama Othman * examples/Configuration/Makefile: Added a Makefile for this example. * examples/Configuration/config_test.cpp: ACEified this example, and corrected several errors and warnings. Thu Nov 11 20:28:44 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * ace/Local_Tokens.cpp: * ace/OS.cpp: Removed gcc-2.95 warnings about mismatch format and arguments, the warning only shows up under gcc-2.95 for alphas. We use to print the addresses which produces correct results in all the platforms we have access to. Thanks to Cristian Ferretti for pointing this out. Thu Nov 11 19:55:52 1999 Darrell Brunsch * ace/Configuration.h: * ace/Configuration.cpp: * examples/Configuration/config_test.cpp: MSVC doesn't like _export and _import so changed them to export_config and import_config. Thu Nov 11 18:41:24 1999 Ossama Othman * ace/Configuration.h: * ace/Configuration.cpp: "path_" variable was allocated with strdup(), but deallocated with delete(). free() should be used instead. Added missing class members to member initializer lists. Changed name of export() to _export(). "export" is a C++ keyword, and shouldn't be used as function name. The import() method was changed to _import() for sake of being consistent. Removed duplicate template instantiations. Thu Nov 11 17:09:19 1999 Darrell Brunsch * ace/Configuration.h: * ace/Configuration.cpp: ACE-ified the code. Also fixed miscellaneous compiler warnings and put in template specialization code. Thu Nov 11 12:10:40 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Process_Manager.cpp, ace/Process.cpp: It looks like the thread that's going to use the Process_Manager object must do a setpgid (0, 0) in order to establish a process group for its children. Apparently, when you run the test program from the command line, the shell sets the process up in a group of its own, but when you run it from the test script, it's a member of the script's group. In the latter case, when you spawn a child process, you can't add it to your own group (because your group doesn't exist!). Thanks to Dave Madden for contributing this fix. Thu Nov 11 01:54:55 1999 Luther J Baker * ace/Log_Msg.h (msg_ostream): * ace/Log_Msg.cpp (msg_ostream): * ace/Log_Msg.cpp (~ACE_Log_Msg): Added a member to flag whether or not Log_Msg object assumes responsibility for destroying its ostream_*. Wed Nov 10 23:29:25 1999 Darrell Brunsch * ace/Configuration.cpp: * ace/Configuration.h: * ace/Configuration.i: * examples/Configuration/Configuration.dsw: * examples/Configuration/Test.dsp: * examples/Configuration/config_test.cpp: Added the ACE Configuration class files. Thanks to Chris Hafey for submitting them. * ace/ace_dll.dsp: * ace/ace_lib.dsp: * ace/Makefile: * examples/Configuration/Makefile: Added the Configuration files to the projects and Makefiles. * ace/config-win32.h: MSVC only supports operator placement delete as of version 6. Wed Nov 10 22:12:32 1999 Ossama Othman * configure.in: Enabled the CVS directory check so that ACE's stock Makefiles won't get inadvertently clobbered by developers who want to experiment with the configure script. * m4/acinclude.m4: Made CVS directory check more verbose. It now provides an example of how to avoid the error it detects, i.e. it provides an example that demonstrates to do a build without affecting the source. * Makefile.in: * ace/Makefile.in: * ace/config.h.in: * apps/gperf/src/Makefile.in: * apps/gperf/Makefile.in: * apps/Makefile.in: * netsvcs/clients/Logger/Makefile.in: * netsvcs/clients/Naming/Client/Makefile.in: * netsvcs/clients/Naming/Dump_Restore/Makefile.in: * netsvcs/clients/Naming/Makefile.in: * netsvcs/clients/Tokens/collection/Makefile.in: * netsvcs/clients/Tokens/deadlock/Makefile.in: * netsvcs/clients/Tokens/invariant/Makefile.in: * netsvcs/clients/Tokens/manual/Makefile.in: * netsvcs/clients/Tokens/mutex/Makefile.in: * netsvcs/clients/Tokens/rw_lock/Makefile.in: * netsvcs/clients/Tokens/Makefile.in: * netsvcs/clients/Makefile.in: * netsvcs/lib/Makefile.in: * netsvcs/servers/Makefile.in: * netsvcs/Makefile.in: * man/html/Makefile.in: * man/man3/Makefile.in: * man/Makefile.in: * tests/Makefile.in: Added these files so that developers who don't have GNU Autoconf, Automake and Libtool can run the configure script and attempt builds to provide feedback to us. Wed Nov 10 21:35:47 1999 Ossama Othman * m4/compiler.m4: Added some default flags for compilers on IRIX. * m4/threads.m4: Added more thread library checks in an effort to figure out if a thread library really is needed, in the case that the initial check for pthread_create succeeds without the need of a thread library. Such a problem occurred on IRIX. This modification should correct the problem. Wed Nov 10 10:55:34 1999 Ossama Othman * ace/OS.i (memset, thr_self, thr_getspecific): Commented the ACE_TRACE statements. On some compiler/platform combinations these methods get called before the Object Manager is initialized, which causes the ACE_TRACE call to seg fault when tracing is enabled in ACE. Tue Nov 9 17:50:01 1999 Darrell Brunsch * ace/config-hpux-10.x-hpc++.h: Added ACE_LACKS_PLACEMENT_OPERATOR_DELETE since it doesn't seem to be supported on aCC. Tue Nov 9 15:47:10 1999 Ossama Othman * ace/XtReactor.cpp (TimerCallbackProc): Fixed "unused argument" warning. Tue Nov 9 14:57:51 1999 Ossama Othman * configure.in: Minor comment updates. * m4/features.m4: Fixed asynchronous IO tests. The tests now properly detect working asynchronous IO on Linux, for example. Force asynchronous IO tests to be performed after the thread detection tests in case the real time functions depend on the thread library. Tue Nov 9 10:11:22 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/config-g++-common.h: Added ACE_LACKS_PLACEMENT_OPERATOR_DELETE for the GCC 2.8 and earlier family of compilers since they don't seem to support this feature. Mon Nov 8 09:41:34 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Svc_Handler.cpp: Removed the unused parameter `n'. Thanks to David Levine for reporting this. Mon Nov 8 16:34:27 1999 Ossama Othman * acconfig.h: * configure.in: Added autoconf support/tests for the following ACE macros: ACE_HAS_STRPTIME ACE_LACKS_NATIVE_STRPTIME ACE_LACKS_PLACEMENT_OPERATOR_NEW ACE_LACKS_PLACEMENT_OPERATOR_DELETE Mon Nov 8 09:41:34 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/config-g++-common.h: Added ACE_LACKS_PLACEMENT_OPERATOR_NEW for older versions of G++. Thanks to David Levine for reporting this. * ace/config-sunos5.5.h: Added a #define for ACE_LACKS_PLACEMENT_OPERATOR_DELETE to handle problems with SunC++ 4.2. * ace/Svc_Handler: Not all C++ compilers support placement operator delete, so we need to #ifdef for it. Thanks to Andy Gokhale for reporting this. Sun Nov 07 23:36:51 1999 Nanbor Wang * tests/run_tests.bat: * tests/tests.dsw: * tests/Auto_IncDec.dsp: * tests/version_tests/version_tests.dsw: * tests/version_tests/Auto_IncDec_Test.dsp: Added Auto_IncDec_Test for MSVC workspaces. Sun Nov 7 12:03:31 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Svc_Handler: Added two new placement operator new() and delete() operations so that it is possible to allocate an ACE_Svc_Handler from a custom allocator. Thanks to Edan Ayal for contributing this. * tests/run_tests.lst: Added Auto_IncDec_Test to the tests. * ace/Makefile, tests/Makefile: Added the new Auto_IncDec* stuff to the makefiles. * ace: Added Auto_IncDec_T.{h,i,cpp} to the ACE release. This class automatically increments and decrements a parameterized counter. Thanks to Edan Ayal for contributing this. * tests/Auto_IncDec_Test.cpp: Added a test for the ACE_Auto_IncDec class. Thanks to Edan Ayal for contributing this. Fri Nov 05 14:26:38 1999 Jim Buck * ace/OS.cpp (ACE_Time_Value::set): fixed calculation of microsecond part. This change restores the correct pre-ACE 5.0 behavior. Fri Nov 5 07:58:14 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Memory_Pool.i: Fixed stupid typos in Memory_Pool.i. Thanks to Jeff Parsons for reporting this. * ace/Memory_Pool.i: Default arguments shouldn't be in the *.i signatures. Thanks to Andy Gokhale for reporting this. Thu Nov 4 08:36:34 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Memory_Pool: Moved the sync() and protect() methods from ACE_Pagefile_Memory_Pool into the *.i file and made their parameter names anonymous since these methods are no-ops. Thanks to Martin Krumpolec for suggesting this. * include/makeinclude/compiler.bor: Changed MISC_CFLAGS to -a8 -b- -Ve -Vx. Thanks to Jody Hagins for this suggestion. Thu Nov 04 15:19:54 1999 David L. Levine * ACE version 5.0.8 released. Thu Nov 04 08:16:25 1999 David L. Levine * config-linux-common.h: only enabled ACE_HAS_SIGTIMEDWAIT with glibc. RedHat 5.2 doesn't have sigtimedwait. Mon Nov 01 14:29:04 1999 David L. Levine * ace/Filecache.cpp,Capabilities.cpp,Makefile: moved ACE_Hash and ACE_Equal_To explicit instantiations from Filecache.cpp to Capabilities.cpp, because it needs them and is used with FOR_TAO. Mon Nov 01 15:05:44 1999 Steve Huston * THANKS: Added Greg Siebers Mon Nov 01 15:02:31 1999 Steve Huston * ace/config-aix-4.x.h: Added definition of ACE_LD_SEARCH_PATH. Thanks to Greg Siebers for this fix. Mon Nov 01 10:11:36 1999 David L. Levine * ace/Capabilities.{i,cpp}: unlined definition of ~ACE_CapEntry. It caused an internal compiler error with g++ 2.7.2.3, and it is a good idea to not inline it because it's virtual. Also, prepended ACE_ to enum values. Sun Oct 31 22:46:17 1999 David L. Levine * tests/Capabilities_Test.cpp (main): removed declarations of unused argc and argv arguments. Sun Oct 31 16:39:53 1999 Darrell Brunsch * ace/Capabilities.cpp: Added ACE_BUILD_DLL so the class is properly exported on NT. * ace/ace_dll.dsp: * ace/ace_lib.dsp: Added Capabilities files to MSVC projects. * tests/Capabilities_Test.cpp: Was loading the wrong file, changed to loading Capabilites_Test.cfg instead of captest.cfg. * tests/Capabilities_Test.dsp: * tests/version_tests/Capabilities_Test.dsp: * tests/tests.dsw: Added Capabilities_Test project files. * tests/run_tests.bat: Added Capabilities_Test to the list of tests. Sun Oct 31 15:29:08 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Capabilities.cpp: Cleaned up some of the explicit template instantiations so they will work on all platforms. Thanks to Bala for pointing this out. * ace/Makefile, * tests/run_tests.lst, tests/Makefile (BIN): Added an entry for the new ACE_Capabilities classes. Fri Oct 29 21:09:49 1999 Ossama Othman * man/html/Makefile.am: For some reason Automake couldn't automatically copy the HTML man pages to the distribution directory when doing a `make dist' so do it manually. Fri Oct 29 19:53:59 1999 Ossama Othman * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Removed ACE.DSW from the distribution list. * configure.in: Removed test for necessity of _GNU_SOURCE macro. All uses and need of that feature test macro have been removed from ACE. If a thread library was detected, define _REENTRANT in the command line, not the generated config.h header. The user can use the ace-config script to determine what other flags are needed to compile ACE. Check for sched_yield in the librt library, if it exists, in addition to the others listed. Solaris 7 moves sched_yield from the libposix4 library to librt. Added libsocket to list of libraries to search for getservbyname(). If check for socket() results in unresolved symbols, add `-lnsl' to library search. Improved ACE_HAS_PTHREAD_PROCESS_ENUM test. Added checks for getpgid, strtok_r, strptime and lseek64 prototypes. The old getpgid test is superceded by a new one. A prototype is declared if the checks determine that certain feature test macros are needed to enable them. Added man directory Makefiles to list of files to generate. * ace-config.in: Minor updates. Modified so that "ace" is the default library if one isn't specified. * ace-config.1.in: Minor updates. * ace/config-linux-common.h: * ace/OS.h: Moved all prototypes to OS.h. Only macros should be defined config headers. Each of the moved prototypes are enabled by using the following newly added macros: ACE_LACKS_GETPGID_PROTOTYPE ACE_LACKS_STRPTIME_PROTOTYPE ACE_LACKS_STRTOK_R_PROTOTYPE ACE_LACKS_LSEEK64_PROTOTYPE All prototypes in ace/OS.h should come after the inclusion of ace/Basic_Types.h since the prototypes may need types that are only available after that inclusion. Also added a ACE_LACKS_PREAD_PROTOTYPE that is used to enable make both pread() and pwrite() protypes. Recent glibc libraries have pread() and pwrite() but only enable the prototypes if _XOPEN_SOURCE=500 is defined (Single Unix specification). Now define ACE_HAS_P_READ_WRITE and ACE_LACKS_PREAD_PROTOTYPE on Linux. * bin/bootstrap: Added ACE man page generation. Generating the man pages during the bootstrapping process allows the man page list in man/man3/Makefile.am to be generated by a shell command instead of having to explicitly specify each man page in that Makefile. The man pages will only be generated if the ACE.3 man page doesn't exist. That man page should be representative of the existence of the rest of the man pages. * man/Makefile.am: * man/html/Makefile.am: * man/man3/Makefile.am: Added Automake input files for the ACE man pages. The man pages will now be installed during a `make install'. This is an ACE Configuration Project specific enhancement. ACE's current man page scheme is unchanged, and doesn't support this feature. * m4/features.m4: Delete test_aio.log when the test is done. Fri Oct 29 17:01:58 1999 Kirthika Parameswaran * ace/OS.h: Added ACE_DEFAULT_SHLIB_MODE for KCC. Since this mode wasnt right the DLL_Test failed when compiled using the KAI compiler. This change fixes this problem too. Thanks to Nanbor and Michael Kircher for helping me on this task. Fri Oct 29 07:08:16 1999 David L. Levine * include/makeinclude/rules.local.GNU, include/makeinclude/wrapper_macros.GNU include/makeinclude/platform_vxworks5.x_g++.GNU: fixed typo: COMSPEC instead of COMPSPEC. Thu Oct 28 11:15:43 1999 Nanbor Wang * docs/ACE-guidelines.html: Added a new guideline on avoiding multicharacter format specifiers in ACE_DEBUG/ACE_ERROR. Thu Oct 28 10:54:42 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/Message_Block.cpp: * ace/Name_Request_Reply.cpp: * ace/Time_Request_Reply.cpp: * ace/Token_Request_Reply.cpp: Replaced the use of %ld or %lu with %d or %u in ACE_DEBUG/ACE_ERROR. * ace/config-kcc-common.h: Undefined ACE_HAS_NONSTATIC_OBJECT_MANAGER. Thanks to Russ Noseworthy for noticing this. Thu Oct 28 10:49:51 1999 Darrell Brunsch * ACE.dsw: This is an internal file that I last updated in 1997 (I don't think it ever got included in the releases). Being out of date and not used, I removed it. Thu Oct 28 09:31:19 1999 David L. Levine * tests/SOCK_Send_Recv_Test.cpp (client): if len is not 255, print out its value. Thu Oct 28 09:27:47 1999 David L. Levine * include/makeinclude/rules.local.GNU, include/makeinclude/wrapper_macros.GNU include/makeinclude/platform_vxworks5.x_g++.GNU: support ComSpec as well as COMSPEC environment variable (on Windows). Thanks to Tom Venturella for reporting that ComSpec was defined on the system that he was using. Wed Oct 27 20:31:22 1999 Luther J Baker * ace/Arg_Shifter.h (ACE_Arg_Shifter): Spelling errors. Wed Oct 27 16:45:56 1999 David L. Levine * ace/OS.cpp (ACE_Thread_Adapter::invoke): use an ACE_reinterpret_cast instead of an ACE_static_cast to cast func (of type ACE_THR_FUNC_INTERNAL) to ACE_THR_FUNC. Thanks to Tom Venturella for reporting that the static_cast didn't compile on Tornado II. Wed Oct 27 16:40:07 1999 David L. Levine * ace/OS.h,ACE.h: added newline before ACE_CLASS_IS_NAMESPACE. This might solve the problem with the ACE_OS man page generation failure. Thanks to Samuel Stickland for reporting this problem. Wed Oct 27 12:53:15 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/Object_Manager.h: * ace/config-win32.h: The instructions on how to disable the use of nonstatic object manager were not consistent for NT and other platforms. Thanks to Russ Noseworthy for reporting this. Wed Oct 27 09:48:41 1999 David L. Levine * include/makeinclude/wrapper_macros.GNU: changed check for whether exceptions are enabled from ifndef exceptions to ifeq ($(exceptions),). That allows use of exceptions=0. Thanks to Phil Mesnier for reporting this. Wed Oct 27 09:46:05 1999 David L. Levine * include/makeinclude/platform_qnx_neutrino.GNU: removed -Winline, because it was complaining about operator<< in generated code. Wed Oct 27 08:32:47 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/OS.i (timezone): Added an ACE_UNUSED_ARG to please KCC. Thanks to Dave Madden for reporting this. Tue Oct 26 14:56:15 1999 Balachandran Natarajan * ace/FlReactor.cpp (reset_timer_interval): Fixed a compile error with Sun_Egcs. Thanks to Thomas Groth for reporting this problem & also for giving a fix. Sat Oct 23 19:11:51 1999 Nanbor Wang * ACE version 5.0.7 released. Fri Oct 22 16:58:44 1999 Darrell Brunsch * ace/Dynamic_Service.h: Added an include for OS.h so the Dynamic_Service.cpp will always get included on platforms that need it (ie. win32). Thanks to Paulo Breda Vieira for spotting this problem in the AV Streaming code on NT. Thu Oct 21 20:21:13 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Memory_Pool.cpp (map_file): Make sure to update the base_addr_ with the new mem_map_.addr() before the call to update the ACE based pointer. Thanks to Damien Dufour for reporting this. Thu Oct 21 17:10:17 1999 Vishal Kachroo * ace/OS.i (ioctl): Corrected the implementation of ACE_OS::ioctl () call with ACE_SIO_GET_QOS io control code. Thanks to Vidya Narayanan for reporting this. * ACE_wrappers/examples/QOS/server.cpp: * ACE_wrappers/examples/QOS/client.cpp: * ACE_wrappers/examples/QOS/Sender_QOS_Event_Handler.cpp: * ACE_wrappers/examples/QOS/Receiver_QOS_Event_Handler.cpp: Changed the QOS example to GET-QOS only on receipt of a QoS event. Also tested the changes made to the ioctl (GET_QOS) in OS.i. Thu Oct 21 15:46:08 1999 David L. Levine * tests/run_tests.lst: disabled Process_Manager_Test, for now, because it asserts on Solaris, Irix, Linux, and HP/UX. Wed Oct 21 14:05:00 1999 Ruibiao Qiu * ace/examples/IPC_SAP/ATM_SAP/CPP_{client,server}.dsp: Added configurations for building static executables on NT. Wed Oct 20 00:05:34 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/OS.i: Replaced 0666 wit ACE_DEFAULT_FILE_PERMS. Thanks to Dave Delano for reporting this. Tue Oct 19 13:31:15 1999 Joe Hoffert * ace/ATM_Params.h, ATM_QoS.{h,i}: Cleaned up comments, removed ACE_ATM_QoS::get_options_params method (since it's not used), and made changes for UNIX build. Tue Oct 19 12:55:16 1999 Ossama Othman * ace/Codeset_IBM1047.h: Include `ace/inc_user_config.h' before check for definition of ACE_MVS macro since otherwise ACE_MVS may not get defined. * ace/Codeset_IBM1047.cpp: Moved inclusion of `ace/Codeset_IBM1047.h' ahead of ACE_MVS macro definition check, and removed inclusing of `ace/inc_user_config.h' * ace/OS.i (llseek): Reenabled lseek64() on Linux. If _LARGEFILE64_SOURCE is not defined then an external declaration for lseek64() is made in the config-linux-common.h header. * ace/config-linux-common.h: Minor comment update. Added extern declaration of lseek64() if _LARGEFILE64_SOURCE is not defined. * ace/Handle_Set.cpp: Check if _XOPEN_SOURCE is #defined instead of _GNU_SOURCE to determine if the fd_set structure has an fds_bits member. * ace/Makefile: Updated dependencies. * ace/Makefile.am: Added ATM files to source lists. * acconfig.h: Added entries for some additional "feature test" macros, such as _XOPEN_SOURCE. * bin/g++dep: * include/makeinclude/rules.local.GNU: Incorporated Jody Hagins patches that get around a trailing backslash problem in generated Makefile dependencies. Thanks Jody! Tue Oct 19 12:30:00 1999 Kirthika Parameswaran * examples/Web_Crawler.dsp: Changed the settings to make the executable name as main.exe. * examples/Web_Crawler/URL_Visitor.cpp (~URL_Validation_Visitor): Removed double deletion of the which is the Strategy Connector. Tue Oct 19 11:24:16 1999 Nanbor Wang * include/makeinclude/wrapper_macros.GNU: Commented out an out-dated OBJEXT definition. If a rule requires to generated *.so, then it should specify the extension using SOEXT. Thanks to Aniruddha Gokhale for reporting this. Tue Oct 19 10:27:37 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * bin/run_all_list.pm: Added TAO/tests/DSI_Gateway to the list of tests Tue Oct 19 00:43:34 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/config-win32-common.h: Undefined ACE_HAS_EXCEPTIONS under WinCE. The following changes are contributions from James Buck and Peter C. Chien . * ace/config-WinCE.h (ACE_LACKS_SOCKET_BUFSIZ): We cannot change the socket buffer size on WinCE. * ace/OS.h: * ace/OS.i: * ace/OS.cpp: Added a customized TSS errno implementation for WinCE version 2.10 and above based on James and Peter's patch. ACE_Errno_Guard also had to be changed when using this implementation. However, this code is not active by default because I don't know how to detect CE's OS and platform configuration automatically. To use the code, define ACE_HAS_WINCE_BROKEN_ERRNO. * ace/OS.i(cond_wait,cond_timedwait): On WinCE, we must tweak the returning result from the semaphore if timeout occurred. Because CE uses the simulated semaphore, the returning value is not the same as that returned by a native semaphore. Tue Oct 19 00:03:57 1999 Nanbor Wang * include/makeinclude/wrapper_macros.GNU: * include/makeinclude/rules.bin.GNU: * include/makeinclude/rules.lib.GNU: * include/makeinclude/rules.local.GNU: Chaged the following settings to be platform configurable: OBJDIRS: Names of directories to keep obj files. Default is '.obj' and '.shobj'. OBJEXT: Extension name for obj files. Default is 'o'. SOEXT: Extension name for so files. Default is 'so'. LIBEXT: Extension name for lib files. Default is 'a'. CC_OUTPUT_FLAG: LINK_OUTPUT_FLAG: SO_OUTPUT_FLAG: Flags to specify output file name for cc, linker and so_linker. Defaults are '-o'. Mon Oct 18 23:46:00 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/config-freebsd-pthread.h: Undefined ACE_HAS_PENTIUM for freebsd. The high resolution timer doesn't seem to work on this platfrom. * ace/OS.i (cuserid): Added missing ACE_UNUSED_ARG (maxlen) statement. * ace/Log_Msg.cpp (log): FreeBSD defines sys_nerr as a const int. Mon Oct 18 23:13:55 1999 Kirthika Parameswaran * examples/Web_Crawler/URL_Visitor.cpp: Updated some broken template instantiations. Thanks to Bruce Alderson for reporting this. Mon Oct 18 21:32:29 1999 Ossama Othman Updates that remove need to use _GNU_SOURCE macro on Linux/glibc systems [Bug 167]: * ace/OS.i: Return ACE_static_cast (off_t, -1), instead of just -1 in ACE_OS::lseek(). (not related to _GNU_SOURCE updates) Only enable lseek64() on Linux/glibc systems if _LARGEFILE64_SOURCE is defined. Don't use cuserid() on Linux/glibc systems. It was dropped from POSIX.1 back in 1990. Instead, extract the user name from getpwuid(geteuid()), as suggested by the glibc cuserid() man pages and Stevens' Advanced programming in the UNIX Environment. * ace/Handle_Set.cpp: XPG4.2 declares an fds_bit member in the fd_set structure. Since _GNU_SOURCE is being disabled in ACE, use the __fds_bits member. It's not pretty, but it works. * ace/config-linux-common.h: strptime() is an XOPEN function. It is only enabled if _XOPEN_SOURCE or _GNU_SOURCE is defined (_GNU_SOURCE causes _XOPEN_SOURCE to be defined on Linux/glibc systems). If _XOPEN_SOURCE is not defined, create an external declaration for it. Mon Oct 18 18:41:38 1999 Steve Huston * ace/OS.h: Add #include for HP-UX 10.x, and... * ace/OS.i (ACE_OS::sigwait): On HP-UX 10.x, call cma_sigwait directly. Fixes bug #66. Mon Oct 18 15:45:08 1999 Irfan Pyarali * ace/OS.i (event_wait): The following changes are incorrect and have been reverted: http://ace.cs.wustl.edu/cvsweb/ace-cvs.cgi/ACE_wrappers/ace/OS.i?r1=4.796&r2=4.797. Remember that is only turned on to remember state, i.e., when == 0. In the case when there are waiters, i.e., != 0, is not turned on, and therefore breaks the wait function since while (event->is_signaled_ == 0) never becomes false. We need a better way to protect against to guard against spurious wakeups. Mon Oct 18 13:42:37 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/OS.h: Added extra parentheses to avoid operator precedence mix-up. Thanks to JM Strauss for reporting this. Mon Oct 18 13:30:08 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/OS.h: Removed a whole bunch of extra blank in ACE_DES_*FREE* macro definitions. Thanks to JM Strauss for pointing this out. Sun Oct 17 19:08:51 1999 Balachandran Natarajan * ace/QtReactor.cpp: Fixed a bug in remove_handle_i () method. I found this when I was testing the test for the QtReactor. Sun Oct 17 11:00:46 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * include/makeinclude/platform_sunos5_sunc++.GNU (LD): Added a fix so that SunC++ 5.0 will work correctly when it's used in "compat" mode with SunC++ 4.2. Thanks to Susan Liebeskind for reporting this fix. * ace/Malloc_T.cpp (remove): Need to call the destructor of ACE_Malloc_Stats explicitly in remove(). Thanks to Jean-Marc Strauss for reporting this. * ace/Containers_T.i (get): ACE_DLList::get() didn't check the return value from ACE_Double_Linked_List::get() so it was possible for the node variable to be NULL. Now it checks for the error case explicitly. Thanks to Boris Sukholitko for reporting this bug. * ace/Containers_T.cpp (get): The ACE_Double_Linked_List::get() method should return -1 on error but it was returning 1. Now, the implementation matches the documentation. Thanks to Boris Sukholitko for reporting this bug. Sat Oct 16 17:10:23 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Makefile: * ace/Svc_Conf_l.cpp: Replace exit(1) with ACE_OS::exit(1) so that CodeWarrior doesn't get confused. Thanks to David Delano for reporting this. * ace/OS.cpp: Removed the '&' in front of thread_args to make CodeWarrior happier. Thanks to David Delano for reporting this. * ace/OS.cpp: Removed the table_() "initialization" for ACE_TSS_Cleanup since this breaks the CodeWarrior C++ compiler. Thanks to David Delano for reporting this. * ace/OS.i: There was a bug with the ACE_OS::truncate() emulation for Win32. We need to check for ACE_INVALID_HANDLE and NOT < 0! Thanks to David Delano for reporting this. Sat Oct 16 11:17:10 1999 Irfan Pyarali * TAO/tao/Sync_Strategies.cpp (buffering_constraints_reached): Changed the signature of TAO_Flush_Sync_Strategy::buffering_constraints_reached() to match the base class. Fri Oct 15 17:28:05 1999 Irfan Pyarali * ace/Connector.cpp (connect_i): Only close if we have a valid . Thanks to Yury Kuznesov for reporting this problem. Fri Oct 15 17:26:08 1999 Balachandran Natarajan * include/makeinclude/wrapper_macros.GNU: Added a new flag that would help conditional compilation compilation of the QtReactor. * ace/QtReactor.cpp: * ace/QtReactor.h: Files for the QtReactor. Thanks to Hamish Friedlander for donating this to ACE. For the sake of record, Qt is a multiplatform C++ GUI toolkit. * ace/Makefile: Added the above files to Makefile. Changes were also made to generate files from moc (Meta Object Compiler, that comes with Qt libraries) and include them with the build. Fri Oct 15 01:03:13 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Activation_Queue: ACE_Activation_Queue has no methods for inspecting the size of the queue. The solution was to add the methods: method_count(), is_empty(), and is_full(). Thanks to Travis Shirk for contributing this. Fri Oct 15 00:36:35 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * tests/Process_Manager_Test.cpp (main): Replaced ACE_OS::exit(secs) with return secs so that Purify will be happy. Thu Oct 14 14:30:06 1999 David L. Levine * tests/Process_Manager_Test.cpp: use u_int instead of bool. Make ~Exit_Handler () public so that g++ doesn't complain about a private destructor with no friends. Commented out unused local variable child7. Thu Oct 14 14:25:44 1999 Dave Madden * tests/Process_Manager_Test.cpp: fixed the memory leaks, and most of the "unused variable" warnings should be gone. I've added, but left commented out, ASSERTs for the child process' exit codes. The reason is that, on Unix, the exit code contains extra information (exited, traced, stopped, signaled, etc.) that causes the exit code from wait() to be different from what the child's main() returned. Wed Oct 13 20:23:58 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/config-WinCE.h: Added ACE_LACKS_ACE_TOKEN and ACE_LACKS_ACE_OTHER to reduce CE dll's footprint. * ace/Memory_Pool.cpp (ACE_Pagefile_Memory_Pool::map): The SECURITY_DESCRIPTOR and its management routines are only supported on NT. Changed to pass a NULL security attribute on non-NT platforms (95, 98, CE.) Wed Oct 13 10:50:39 1999 David L. Levine * tests/run_tests.sh: use uname -s without checking to see if /bin/uname, etc., exist. Redirect stderr to the sysname string. It works. Wed Oct 13 10:39:50 1999 David L. Levine * ace/OS.h: ensure that ACE_THR_PRI_FIFO_DEF and ACE_THR_PRI_OTHER_DEF are defined on non-threaded platforms, to support application source code compatibility. Wed Oct 13 10:11:47 1999 David L. Levine * tests/Malloc_Test.cpp: fixed preprocessor logic so that the test is neutered on LynxOS. [Bug 224] Wed Oct 13 01:15:45 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/Parse_Node.cpp: Made sure we don't try to duplicate a null string. This was causing problem when the initialization string was missing from a service entry. Thanks to Chris Hafey for reporting this. Tue Oct 12 15:05:12 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * tests/run_tests.lst: Reenabed Dave Madden's new Process_Manager_Test so that we can see if it works on various platforms. * tests/Process_Manager_Test.cpp (main): Added a new one-button test for the ACE_Process_Manager. Thanks to Dave Madden for contributing this test. * ace/Process_Manager.cpp (wait): Fixed a bug triggered by a process-specific wait. Thanks to Dave Madden for contributing this fix. * ace/ACE.cpp (format_hexdump): Replaced textver[i] = (c < 0x20 || c > 0x7e) ? '.' : c; with textver[i] = isprint (c) ? c : '.'; since this is more portable. Thanks to Jim Rogers for reporting this. * ace/Memory_Pool.i: Changed implementation to round_to_chunk_size() to ACE::round_to_pagesize(), which appears to be the "Right Thing"[TM] on NT. Tue Oct 12 14:49:00 1999 Ruibiao Qiu * ace/ATM_Stream.h * ace/ATM_Acceptor.h: Moved #pragma after ACE include so that g++ would not give warning messages. Thanks to Dr. David L. Levine for pointing this out. Tue Oct 12 14:26:15 1999 David L. Levine * ace/config-qnx-neutrino.h: added #define of ACE_THR_PRI_FIFO_DEF. This allows us to easily set a thread priority (10) that's lower the the TCP service threads (17) in tests. Thanks to Sean Boudreau for suggesting that. Tue Oct 12 14:16:18 1999 David L. Levine * etc/purify.solaris2: added some more UMR suppressions for SunOS 5.7 (with Sun CC 4.2). Tue Oct 12 13:22:22 1999 David L. Levine * include/makeinclude/platform_sunos5.6_sparc_sunc++_4.2.GNU: removed to avoid confusion. It just included platform_sunos5_sunc++.GNU; that should be used directly, instead. Thanks to Dan Butler for reporting this. Tue Oct 12 12:40:41 1999 Jeff Parsons * ace/Memory_Pool.i: * ace/Memory_Pool.cpp: Fixed some errors in Win32 specific code. Tue Oct 12 12:20:08 1999 David L. Levine * docs/ACE-subsets.html: updated status, and added some missing motivation sections. Thanks to Wei Chiang for reporting that the document was out-of-date. Tue Oct 12 11:57:21 1999 David L. Levine * ace/config-sunos5.6-sunc++-4.x.h: removed because it #included a header that no longer exists in the distribution. ace/config-sunos5.6.h should be used instead. Thanks to Dan Butler for reporting this. Tue Oct 12 11:48:00 1999 Ruibiao Qiu * ace/ATM_Addr.{h,cpp,i}: * ace/ATM_Stream.{h,cpp,i}: * ace/ATM_Connector.{h,cpp,i}: * ace/ATM_Acceptor.{h,cpp,i}: * ace/ATM_QoS.{h,cpp,i}: * ace/ATM_Params.{h,cpp,i}: Added support for Fore ATM on Windows platform. Enabled when ACE_HAS_ATM and ACE_HAS_FORE_ATM_WS2 are defined. * ace/config-win32-common.h: Added needed header include when ACE_HAS_FORE_ATM_WS2 is defined. * ace/ace_dll.dsp: * ace/ace_lib.dsp: Included ATM_* classes files in the porject files. * examples/IPC_SAP/ATM_SAP/CPP-client.cpp * examples/IPC_SAP/ATM_SAP/CPP-server.cpp: Changed example codes so that they can be run on Windows. They are now non-interactive, and show data rates at each end. * examples/IPC_SAP/ATM_SAP/CPP_client.dsp * examples/IPC_SAP/ATM_SAP/CPP_server.dsp * examples/IPC_SAP/ATM_SAP/ATM_SAP.dsw: Created MSVC project files and workspace file for these examples. Tue Oct 12 11:37:56 1999 David L. Levine * tests/run_tests.sh: export ACE_ROOT if setting it. Tue Oct 12 11:32:23 1999 David L. Levine * tests/run_tests.pl,run_tests.sh: don't print "Skipping test on this platform" message for DISABLED tests. Set ACE_ROOT to .. if it wasn't set. * tests/run_tests.sh: don't invoke uname command on Neutrino, because it's not supported. Tue Oct 12 08:53:52 1999 Irfan Pyarali * ace/Message_Queue.cpp (enqueue): and should increase by total_size() and total_length() respectively. And in dequeue(), should decrease by total_length(). Thanks to Christopher Kohlhoff for pointing this out. Tue Oct 12 10:00:52 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Memory_Pool (ACE_Pagefile_Memory_Pool):Added a new memory pool that uses the Win32 page file. Thanks to Dieter Quehl for contributing this. Mon Oct 11 17:07:46 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Message_Queue.cpp (enqueue): ACE fails to compile because of a for-loop scoping problem in the method ACE_Message_Queue_NT::enqueue. Thanks to Christopher Kohlhoff for reporting this. * ace/Activation_Queue.cpp (enqueue): Changed the creation of the ACE_Message_Block so that it uses the sizeof (ACE_Method_Request) to ensure the queue's flow control mechanism works properly. Thanks to Dan Gilboa for reporting this. Mon Oct 11 17:36:15 1999 Nanbor Wang Thanks to Wei Chiang for the following patches. * ace/Thread_Manager.cpp (kill_thr): Chorus only supports SIGTHREADKILL here. Made sure we remove the killed thread from the managed thread list. * tests/Thread_Manager_Test.cpp: Changed the test to check for cooperative cancellation even if the platform doesn't support sending signaling to a specific thread. On Chorus, this signal has to be SIGTHREADKILL. Mon Oct 11 17:35:51 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/config-kcc-common.h: Added ACE_HAS_STD_TEMPLATE_SPECIALIZATION for KCC. Mon Oct 11 12:05:31 1999 Wei Chiang * ace/Signal.cpp (ACE_Sig_Action ctors), ace/Select_Reactor_T.cpp (register_handler,remove_handler): disabled signal-related operations on Chorus. Mon Oct 11 10:15:28 1999 David L. Levine * bin/check_build_logs: suppress some Purify warnings. Purify says that it's ignoring the problem; so will we. Mon Oct 11 10:09:56 1999 David L. Levine * ACE version 5.0.6 released. Mon Oct 11 07:34:34 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/OS.h: Removed a stray '>' that was causing OS.h not to compile. Thanks to Marvin Allen Wolfthal for reporting this. Fri Oct 8 07:47:08 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/OS.h: Removed the word "defined" since that was breaking SunCC 4.2. Thanks to Andy Gokhale for reporting this. Thu Oct 07 18:47:03 1999 Irfan Pyarali * ace/OS.h (ACE_NOTSUP): Added new macro. This one is similar to ACE_NOTSUP_RETURN, except that there is no return value (similar to ACE_GUARD and ACE_GUARD_RETURN). * ace/Message_Queue (message_length): Returns the total length on the queue, i.e., sum of the message block lengths. Since manual changes to these stats might be necessary, specially when queued message blocks change size or lengths (without dequeuing the messages from the queue), we also provide methods for setting these stats. * ace/Message_Block.i (total_length): This new method is similar to except that it deals with the length of the message blocks and not the size of the message blocks. It returns the length of the message blocks, including chained message blocks. Thu Oct 7 13:17:29 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ACE-INSTALL.html: Changed the word "compiler" to "linker". Thanks to George Ball for reporting this. Thu Oct 07 11:35:13 1999 Steve Huston * ace/streams.h: Added #include in the non-Win32 section of the !ACE_HAS_STANDARD_CPP_LIBRARY section, for systems like Solaris w/ SC4.2. Wed Oct 6 21:36:18 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Log_Msg.cpp (log): Forgot to remove a stray %s. Thanks to Kitty Krishnakumar for reporting this. Wed Oct 06 16:42:56 1999 Nanbor Wang * examples/Reactor/Misc/Misc.dsw: * examples/Reactor/Misc/demuxing.dsp: Added the demuxing test project file. * examples/Reactor/Misc/test_demuxing.cpp: MS Windows only supports a limited set of signals. Made sure we use them in the examples. Wed Oct 06 16:20:28 1999 David L. Levine * tests/CDR_File_Test.cpp (run_test): when reading, ensure that the message block has sufficient space to properly align the 64-bit double on LynxOS and Neutrino. Thanks to Jeff for helping to track this down, and for Carlos for providing the fix. Wed Oct 6 15:40:11 1999 Vishal Kachroo * ace/OS.i : Initialised the qos_len variable to sizeof (QOS) within the ioctl () method for ACE_SIO_GET_QOS. * ACE_wrappers/examples/QOS/client.cpp: * ACE_wrappers/examples/QOS/server.cpp: Added a test for the ACE_SIO_GET_QOS io control code. The Sending and Receiving QOS flowspec parameters are extracted and printed for both the sender and receiver using this control code. Wed Oct 6 08:36:17 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/OS.h: Changed # if defined (__SUNPRO_CC < 0x500) to this # if defined (__SUNPRO_CC < 0x500) || ((__SUNPRO_CC == 0x500 && > __SUNPRO_CC_COMPAT == 4)) to work around compilation problems with Sun CC 5.0 when used in Sun CC 4 compatibilty mode. Thanks to Erik Koerber for this fix. * ace/Log_Msg.cpp (log): Added support for a %m option that behaves like strerror() rather than perror(). Thanks to Kitty Krishnakumar for this feature. * ace/OS.i (event_wait): We need to put the call to ACE_OS::cond_wait() in a loop to guard against spurious wakeups. Thanks to Sergey Nemanov and Vladimir Kondratiev for reporting this and suggesting a fix. * tests/Malloc_Test.cpp: Don't run the Malloc_Test on LynxOS. * tests/MM_Shared_Memory_Test.cpp: Fixed the code so that it'll compile correctly on platforms that lack fork(), such as VxWorks. Thanks to David Levine for reporting this. Tue Oct 5 16:17:57 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * tests/MM_Shared_Memory_Test.cpp (spawn): Make sure to delete the synchronizer in both the parent and the child processes since otherwise we get a memory leak! Thanks to David Levine for pointing this out. * tests/Task_Test.cpp (main): Make sure to delete the thread hook before exiting the process to avoid a memory leak. Thanks to David Levine for pointing this out. Tue Oct 5 15:04:03 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/[Active_|Hash_]Map_Manager: Modified these classes so that the find() methods are all "const". Thanks to Jody Hagins for reporting this. Tue Oct 05 21:58:06 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/config-WinCE.h: Reenabled ACE_HAS_MFC. This should be the most portable configuration. If you insist not to use MFC at all, define ACE_HAS_MFC=0 in your config.h file. * ace/OS.h: * ace/OS.cpp (set_window): Removed the MFC specific set_window method so we can use ACE in both MFC and non-MFC applications. * ace/INET_Addr.h: Applied ASYS_TEXT to several default string literals. * ace/DLL.h: * ace/DLL.cpp: Changed the type of in ctor and the open method to ASYS_TCHAR to minimize string conversion. * tests/DLL_Test.cpp: Applied ASYS_TEXT to the name of the DLL file. Tue Oct 5 19:01:43 1999 Jeff Parsons * ace/CDR_Stream.i: Changed << for bounded (w)strings to marshal only 'length' bytes, instead of 'bound' bytes. The previous method could cause an access violation if the string fits near the end of a system page, but the 'bound' extends beyond it. Thanks to Brian Wright for reporting this bug. Mon Oct 4 08:31:58 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * examples/Shared_Malloc/test_persistence.cpp: Enhanced the list_employees() method so that it'll print the contents of ACE_Malloc<> in FIFO and LIFO order. * ace/Malloc[_T].{h,cpp}: Added a new iterator for ACE_Malloc<> called ACE_Malloc_FIFO_Iterator, which prints out the ACE_Name_Node entries in FIFO order. In addition, renamed ACE_Malloc_Iterator to be ACE_Malloc_LIFO_Iterator because it prints the ACE_Name_Node entries in LIFO order. Also added a #define of ACE_Malloc_Iterator to ACE_Malloc_LIFO_Iterator to ensure backwards compatibility. Thanks to Wenli Bai for this enhancements. * tests/MM_Shared_Memory_Test.cpp: Fixed the test so that it should work correctly for platforms that use either processes or threads. Also, make sure to call remove() on the ACE_Process_Semaphore so that stray semaphores aren't left around. Thanks to David Levine for helping to track this down. * ace/Synch.h: Updated the documentation for the ACE_Process_Semaphore destructor to indicate that it doesn't remove the semaphore. Instead, you must call remove() explicitly. Thanks to David Levine for helping to track this down. * ace/Malloc_T.cpp (print_stats): Added a cast for the ACE_LOCK to work around the fact that the print_stats() method is const. Thanks to Jean-Marc Strauss for reporting this. * ace/INET_Addr.cpp (set): Added ACE_UNUSED_ARG so the compiler won't complain about the protocol paraemter in parts of the code where it's not used. * tests/MM_Shared_Memory_Test.cpp (spawn): Added ACE_UNUSED_ARG so the compiler won't complain about process_synchronizer in parts of the code where it's not used. Sun Oct 3 12:47:35 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * tests/Process_Mutex_Test.cpp (main): Renamed the confusing "server" stuff to "parent" where appropriate. * tests/MM_Shared_Memory_Test.cpp: Don't call ACE_OS::exit() in the child since this won't clean up the Object_Manager correctly. Thanks to David Levine for reporting this. However, we'll still have two "end" statements, but only one begin statement, which is confusing. I'm not sure how to solve this, but it won't break anything. * tests/MM_Shared_Memory_Test.cpp: Oops, only do the acquire()/release() of the Process_Semaphore if we have fork()! * tests/MM_Shared_Memory_Test.cpp: Added an ACE_Process_Semaphore so we no longer need to sleep in order to wait for the server to be initialized. * tests/Process_Strategy_Test.cpp (main): Switched the processes in which the client and server are run so that the server is now run in the parent and the client is run in the child. This made it possible to remove the ACE_OS::sleep(1) call because the acceptor is created before the fork, so the client should always be able to connect to the server, even if the server isn't scheduled to run again before the client. * tests/Process_Mutex_Test.cpp, * tests/SV_Shared_Memory_Test.cpp: Fixed some improper style problems with these tests. Sun Oct 03 10:34:19 1999 David L. Levine * tests/SV_Shared_Memory_Test.cpp (main): only delete parent_mutex and parent_synch in the parent, to prevent double deletion by the child. [Bug 91] Sun Oct 03 10:21:15 1999 David L. Levine * tests/SV_Shared_Memory_Test.cpp: create parent_mutex and parent_synch before forking, to avoid race condition between their creation in the parent and use in the child. This allowed us to remove the sleep (1) in the child. [Bug 91] Sun Oct 03 10:17:21 1999 David L. Levine * ace/OS.cpp (ACE_Thread_Adapter::invoke): added casts of func (to ACE_THR_FUNC) and its return value (to void *) so that this function will compile for VxWorks and pSOS. Sat Oct 2 18:54:38 1999 Vishal Kachroo * ace/SOCK_Dgram_Mcast.{cpp,h}: Added ACE_Protocol_info as a parameter to the QoS enabled private method subscribe_ifs. This allows the use of ACE_Protocol_Info->iAddressFamily in the call to join_leaf (). Thanks to Vidya Narayanan for pointing this out. Sat Oct 2 16:20:33 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/config-kcc-common.h: The macro __KCC_VERSION was not available in 3.3e so we switched to check the existence of this macro to decide the availability of auto_ptr::reset(). Thanks to Ossama for noticing this bug. Sat Oct 2 16:10:26 1999 Ossama Othman * ace/config-linux-common.h: Linux (glibc 2.x) has lseek64() so define ACE_HAS_LLSEEK. * ace/OS.i (llseek): Removed external declaration for llseek() on Linux. Linux uses lseek64(), not llseek(). Updated macro checks to use lseek64() for Linux. [Bug 276] Sat Oct 2 16:01:50 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/INET_Addr.h (ACE_INET_Addr): Removed an unnecessary "protocol" string. Thanks to Jeff and Ossama for reporting this. Sat Oct 2 12:50:43 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/INET_Addr: Previous, it was not possible to specify the proto argument in the ACE_INET_Addr constructor because it was hard-coded to "tcp". Now, this can be passed as a parameter. Thanks to Jaymes Galvin for this suggestion. Fri Oct 1 14:44:12 1999 Vishal Kachroo * ace/OS.h : Added the Winsock2 GQOS related #defines to this file. The #defines are limited to the ones used in the ACE QOS example. * ACE_wrappers/examples/QOS/server.cpp: * ACE_wrappers/examples/QOS/client.cpp: * ACE_wrappers/examples/QOS/QosEvent.h: Changed the QOS example to use the ACE flags instead of Windows flags. Removed the #defines from the example and moved them to OS.h Fri Oct 1 13:14:17 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ChangeLog: Added more Borland support. Thanks to Christopher Kohlhoff for this. Fri Oct 01 13:05:24 1999 David L. Levine * Makefile: move instructions for creating kits down in the file, and added note that they're intended for ACE+TAO developers and maintainers, only. Thanks to Rick Hess for pointing out that that wasn't clear. Fri Oct 1 08:23:36 1999 Joe Hoffert * ace/ATM_Connector.{h,i}: Added add_leaf method and functionality. Thu Sep 30 16:55:41 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * tests/Task_Test.cpp (main): Added a short example illustrating how the new ACE_Thread_Hook mechanism works. * ace/OS.cpp: Added new support for the thread_hook to ACE_OS_Object_Manager. * ace/OS.cpp (invoke): Added support for a virtual "start_hook()" method in a new ACE_Thread_Hook class. This makes it possible for users to subclass ACE_Thread_Hook perform initialization operations before the thread entry point method is called back. Thanks to Chris Hafey for this suggestion. Thu Sep 30 20:40:42 1999 Marina Spivak * bin/run_all_list.pm: Added TAO/examples/Load_Balancing demo to the list of daily executed tests. Thu Sep 30 11:36:20 1999 Charles Frasch * include/makeinclude/wrapper_macros.GNU: in checks for ACE_HAS_GNUG_PRE_2_8, use $(notdir $(CXX)) to properly handle case where CXX has a directory part. Thu Sep 30 11:13:14 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Pipe.cpp (open): Don't use socketpair() for pipes on LynxOS since this doesn't work for some reason. Instead, use the socket emulation. Thanks to David Levine for reporting this. Thu Sep 30 10:30:00 1999 Kirthika Parameswraan * ace/README: Added documentation for: ACE_HAS_BROEN_EXTENDED_TEMPLATES Thanks to Fritz Bosch for suggesting this. Thu Sep 30 10:07:38 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Strategies_T.h: Added #define ACE_Refcounted_Hash_Recyclable ARHR to work around broken linkers that can't handle long symbol names. Thanks to Fritz Bosch for this suggestion. Wed Sep 29 20:58:45 1999 Darrell Brunsch * ace/config-win32.h: * ace/config-win32-common.h: Winsock2.h wasn't being included before my checks of the winsock version, so I moved it to -common.h instead. Wed Sep 29 16:40:45 1999 Nanbor Wang The following changes fix the Service_Configurator on Windows CE. Thanks very much to Kirthika for her help on making this work. * tests/WinCE/DLL_Test.dsp: * tests/WinCE/ce_tests.dsw: Added the DLL_Test project. * ace/ace_ce_dll.dsp: Added DLL.cpp into the project. * ace/Service_Types.i (name): * ace/Service_Object.i (name): Changed to use ACE::strnew to duplicate the name string. * ace/Parse_Node.cpp: Changed all the ACE_*_Node classes to make copies of all string variables and release when they get destructed. This is necessary because on Windows CE, the strings passed into these classes are very short-lived (we use ASCII to UNICODE conversion macros which make temporary copies only.) The change shouldn't affect the performance of ACE since parsing the svc.conf entries should never be in the critical path. * ace/Parse_Node.h: The comments for in ACE_Location_Node is completely outdated. It now specifies whether the Service_Object generated by this Location_Node should be removed or not when it is no longer in use, not the . * ace/OS.i (access): Added a temporary implementation for CE here. ACE::ldfind check the file accessibility using this function. Currently, we hard-code the method to check for read-access only (i.e., the argument is not used) which needs to be fixed. * ace/OS.cpp (fopen): Check for invalid handle and return NULL if handle is invalid on CE. Otherwise, CE programs get totally confused. * ace/Malloc.cpp (dump): I added some more operations in the dump methods but forgot to make them UNICODE friendly. * ace/config-WinCE.h: Added the macro definition for ACE_DEFAULT_LD_SEARCH_PATH since CE doesn't support environment variables at all and we need to hard-code the search path on CE. * ace/README: Added documentation for ACE_DEFAULT_LD_SEARCH_PATH. * ace/ACE.cpp (ldfind): When the macro ACE_DEFAULT_LD_SEARCH_PATH is defined, we should use the hard-coded search path instead of trying to use getenv to acquire the search path. * examples/Service_Configurator/Misc/Timer_Service.cpp: * examples/Service_Configurator/Misc/Timer_Service.h: Made the services UNICODE and CE friendly by applying ASYS_TEXT and using ASYS_TCHAR liberally. * examples/Service_Configurator/Misc/README: Added instructions on how to run the example on Windows CE. Tue Sep 28 15:46:23 1999 Darrell Brunsch * ace/OS.i: Fixed some GQOS stuff for the older versions of WinSock 2. * ace/config-win32.h: Uses a better detection technique to figure out whether we are compiling with WinSock 2's newer headers or not. Tue Sep 28 14:48:26 1999 Irfan Pyarali * ace/WFMO_Reactor.cpp (handler): Implemented previously unimplemented function. Tue Sep 28 15:02:33 1999 Vishal Kachroo * ace/OS.i (ioctl): Added the #if def ACE_HAS_WINSOCK2_GQOS for the extra fields in struct _flowspec. Mon Sep 27 19:16:34 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/OS.i (timezone): SunOS 4 needs to use gettimeofday() to find the current timezone. Thanks to Kamen Penev for reporting this fix. Mon Sep 27 19:30:54 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * THANKS: Added Dennis to the hall of fame list. Mon Sep 27 17:12:51 1999 Vishal Kachroo * ace/OS.i: * ace/OS.h: Added an overloaded ioctl () that is used when the io control code is one of SIO_SET_QOS or SIO_GET_QOS. Thanks to Vidya Narayanan for help with this feature. * ACE_wrappers/examples/QOS/server.cpp: * ACE_wrappers/examples/QOS/client.cpp: Made changes to the usage of ioctl () in the above files to reflect the corresponding changes in ACE. Mon Sep 27 13:11:02 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/config-sunos5.5.h: Wrap the define statement in a conditional that prevents declaration of #define ACE_HAS_STL_QUEUE_CONFLICT for gcc 2.95. We don't know if this is a problem in newer versions of Solaris but this will get rid of it for 5.5.1. Thanks to Siegurd Weber for this fix. Mon Sep 27 16:56:10 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * ace/OS.cpp: ACE_OS::cond_init() has two completely separate versions, i forgot to fix the NT version too, thanks to Vishal for pointing this out. Mon Sep 27 16:05:35 1999 Darrell Brunsch * tests/Object_Manager_Test.dsp: * tests/run_tests.bat: * tests/tests.dsw: * tests/version_tests/Object_Manager_Test.dsp: * tests/version_tests/version_tests.dsw: Added Object_Manager_Test support on Win32 and MSVC. Mon Sep 27 15:23:47 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * ace/OS.h: * ace/OS.i: Fixed overloading problems for cond_init() under LynxOS and Chorus, thanks to John K. Black for reporting the problem and providing a fix. This fixes [BUGID:342] Mon Sep 27 13:11:02 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/SString.h: Added the default value for the ACE_CString method set (const char *, int = 1). We had removed the default values from both the set() methods in order to remove an ambiguity. However, it appears that it's ok to give just this method a default value. Moreover, this prevents existing code from breaking. Thanks to Giga Giguashvili and Ivan Murthy for reporting this. Sat Sep 25 17:09:57 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * ACE version 5.0.5 released. Fri Sep 24 17:20:41 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/config-kcc-common.h: KCC does support auto_ptr::reset after 3.4. Made sure we don't define ACE_AUTO_PTR_LACKS_RESET for newer version of KCC. Thanks to Ossama for reporting the problem. Fri Sep 24 08:59:13 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/config-sunos4-g++.h: Added ACE_HAS_DIRENT. Thanks to Kamen Penev for reporting this. * tests/Handle_Set_Test.cpp (test_boundaries): Added some casts and parens so that the code will compile with MSVC++ 5.0. Thanks to Carlos O'Ryan for reporting this. * examples/Connection/blocking/SPIPE-{acceptor,connector}.cpp: Reformatted some of the code. Fri Sep 24 08:27:28 1999 David L. Levine * ace/OS.*,Synch.cpp: reverted changes of: Thu Sep 23 11:13:38 1999 Wei Chiang because Bug 342 proposes a more general fix. Thu Sep 23 19:02:47 1999 Vishal Kachroo * examples/QOS/server.cpp (main): * examples/QOS/server.cpp (main): Removed the instantiation of ACE_OS_Object_Manager from the above files. This is done automagically in ACE. * examples/QOS/Sender_QOS_Event_Handler.h: Fixed a warning regarding the #def of MY_DEFPORT. Thu Sep 23 14:12:58 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * bin/auto_compile: It was reporting success even when things failed. Thu Sep 23 11:13:38 1999 Wei Chiang * ace/OS.*,Synch.cpp: Chorus compiler (g++) seems to be confused by "int" and "int&" in overloaded operations. A dummy variables to full Chorus compiler is added to cond_init (ACE_cond_t*, ACE_condattr_t&, LPCTSTR void*). * include/makeinclude/rules.bin.GNU,platform_chorus.GNU: updated to support linking of TAO executables for Chorus. Wed Sep 22 19:30:49 1999 Randall Sharo * ace/OS.i (sema_wait): on VxWorks, update tv to return the wait time. [Bug 339] * ace/Synch.h (ACE_Semaphore::acquire): updated comment to show that the absolute acquisition time is returned, not the elapsed time while waiting. Wed Sep 22 16:59:19 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/config-win32-common.h: Added definition of ACE_AUTO_PTR_LACKS_RESET when ACE_HAS_STANDARD_CPP_LIBRARY is defined. Thanks to Ossama for the quick hint. Wed Sep 22 13:05:55 1999 Jim Rogers * ace/Codeset_IBM1047.cpp: added #include "ace/inc_user_config.h" at the beginning, to properly pick up the ACE_MVS #define on MVS. Wed Sep 22 11:20:39 1999 David L. Levine * ace/Basic_Types.h: use u_long for ptr_arith_t, even with 64-bit ints, with Sun CC. For unknown reasons, Sun CC 5.0 won't allow a reintepret cast of a 64-bit pointer to a 64-bit int (with -xtarget=ultra -xarch=v9a). Thanks to Giga Giguashvili for reporting this. 1999-09-21 James CE Johnson * docs/tutorials/Makefile * docs/tutorials/???/* Added a number of notes about proper usage of THR_NEW_LWP and THR_DETACHED. Rebuilt all of the .html and .shar files. Probably touched too many along the way but better safe than sorry. Tue Sep 21 21:56:10 1999 David L. Levine * docs/ACE-subsets.html: replaced absolute link to ../ACE-INSTALL.html#repo with a relative link. And, added "typically" to the 25 percent size reduction figure. Tue Sep 21 16:49:36 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * docs/ACE-subsets.html,ACE-INSTALL.html: Updated the document to point to the -frepo discussion. Thanks to Timothy Canham for motivating this. Tue Sep 21 16:07:26 1999 David L. Levine * docs/ACE-subsets.html: fixed size comparison chart; the For TAO entry was missing for SunOS 5.7/egcs 2.91.60. Thanks to Timothy Canham for reporting this. Tue Sep 21 15:34:16 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Service_Config.cpp (process_directives_i): Added a fix so that the Service_Config allows one level of reentrancy. Thanks to Jonathan Reis for suggesting this. Tue Sep 21 11:35:57 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * examples/Threads/tss1.cpp (main): Need to rearrange where the explicit template instantiations are to make certain compilers happy. Thanks to Jeffrey Franks for reporting the problem. * tests/Makefile.bor: Updated ACE tests makefile to build (almost) all of the tests. Thanks to Christopher Kohlhoff for this fix. * examples/Reactor/Misc/test_signals_2.cpp (main), * examples/Reactor/WFMO_Reactor/test_talker.cpp (STDIN_Handler): Preemptively fixed a couple more potential problems that might trigger the type of problem reported in the next entry below. Tue Sep 21 11:41:33 1999 Ossama Othman * apps/Gateway/Gateway/Event_Channel.cpp (open): Changed cast style to make gcc 2.95.1 happy. Thanks to Jeffrey Franks for reporting the problems. Tue Sep 21 11:25:32 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * bin/auto_compile: Print the most recent ChangeLog entries in the log file. Report successful builds by default. Reformat email to make Darrell happier, btw, he made most of these suggestions. Tue Sep 21 11:13:21 1999 Steve Huston * ace/streams.h: Added includes/using to pick up strstream for istrstream, ostrstream classes when ACE_HAS_STD_CPP_LIBRARY is set. Tue Sep 21 09:38:20 1999 David L. Levine * tests/run_tests.lst: disabled Signal_Test. [Bug 309] Tue Sep 21 08:33:21 1999 David L. Levine * ACE-INSTALL.html: use shared_libs=1, not shared_libs_only=1, to build shared libs on VxWorks. That avoids missing libACE.a, for example, when linking other libraries. Thanks to Uwe Landrock for reporting this. Mon Sep 20 10:52:37 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ACE-INSTALL.html: Clarified that the --unix flag must be given for Cygwin tools on Vxworks and NT. Thanks to Uwe Landrock for reporting this. Mon Sep 20 10:34:51 1999 Steve Huston * ACE-INSTALL.html: Fixed broken link to Riverace's HP-UX info. Thanks to Doug for finding this. Sun Sep 19 12:48:31 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * tests/Signal_Test.cpp: Only send outselves a signal if we're running the signal handler in a separate thread. Sun Sep 19 10:39:30 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * tests/Signal_Test.cpp: Changed the type of shut_down indicator from ACE_Atomic_Op<> to sig_atomic_t. This prevents some nasty deadlocks. * tests/run_tests.lst: Reenabled Signal_Test so we can see if it's still working. * tests/Signal_Test.cpp: Changed the worker_child() function so that just before its thread exits, it will sent its process a signal to the signal handling thread to dislodge it if it hasn't shutdown on its own accord yet. Thanks to David Levine for reporting this. This fixes [BUGID:309]. * ACE/Handle_Set.h: Updated the documentation to point out that it's the *caller's* responsibility to ensure handles aren't added/cleared from the set if their values are larger than ACE_DEFAULT_SELECT_REACTOR_SIZE. This behavior is necessary to ensure efficiency. * tests/Handle_Set_Test.cpp (test_boundaries): Fixed the test so that it will correctly ignore any handle values >= ACE_DEFAULT_SELECT_REACTOR_SIZE. Thanks to David Levine for reporting this. This fixes [BUGID:315]. Sat Sep 18 18:49:31 1999 Jeff Parsons * ace/config-win32-borland.h: Undefined ACE_HAS_BROKEN_IMPLICIT_CONST_CAST as suggested by Christopher Kohlhoff . Sat Sep 18 17:31:52 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * examples/QOS: Improved the conformance to ACE programming guidelines a bit. * ace/Message_Block.cpp: Whenever a ACE_Message_Block accepts a ACE_Data_Block that was produced by someone else, it should verify that the allocator is non-NULL and if it is, then it should allocate the ACE_ALLOCATOR_RETURN on it. Thanks to Pierre Grondin for reporting this. * docs/tutorials/006: Fixed the activate() method so that it uses THR_DETACHED. Thanks to Shafiek Savahl for reporting this. Sat Sep 18 16:17:34 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * bin/auto_compile: The messages include the build name in the subject line. Thanks to Darrell for suggesting this idea. Sat Sep 18 12:00:28 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Message_Block.h: Changed all the ACE_Message_Block constructors so that the priority parameter defaults to ACE_DEFAULT_MESSAGE_BLOCK_PRIORITY, rather than 0. Thanks to Detlef Becker for this suggestion. * ace/OS.h: Added a new macro called ACE_DEFAULT_MESSAGE_BLOCK_PRIORITY, which defaults to 0 but which can be overridden in a config.h file to a different value so it's possible to transparently choose default priorities that are > 0. Thanks to Detlef Becker for this suggestion. Fri Sep 17 19:49:15 1999 Kirthika Parameswaran * tests/Hash_Map_Manager_Test.cpp: Repositioned template instantiations and static variables to make the debug=0 build happy with SunCC5.0. Fri Sep 17 15:34:46 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/Malloc.cpp (dump): * ace/Malloc_T.cpp (dump): Enriched various dump methods a bit. Thu Sep 16 17:53:57 CDT 1999 Loren Rittle * bin/update-ace+tao.sh: Added force option. Thu Sep 16 17:43:02 CDT 1999 Loren Rittle * bin/update-ace+tao.sh: Improve portability. Thu Sep 16 11:08:45 1999 Ossama Othman * ace/Makefile: * tests/Makefile: Updated dependencies. Wed Sep 15 21:42:08 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * ace/OS.h: Removed extra "typedef" in the declaration of the ACE_Protocol_Info structure, it was causing a large number of warnings in several platforms. Wed Sep 15 15:08:33 1999 Ossama Othman * bin/run_all_list.pm: Run the newly added TAO/tests/ORB_init/run_test.pl script when executing the ORB_init test. Wed Sep 15 14:49:50 1999 Balachandran Natarajan * ace/Hash_Map_With_Allocator_T.h: * ace/Hash_Map_With_Allocator_T.i: Added a method unbind () which unbinds an entry by only taking a key. Wed Sep 15 13:19:36 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/Service_Config.cpp (process_directive): Added ace_yyrestart to make sure the service config parser has a valid buffer to work on. Thanks to Lothar Werzinger for reporting this. Wed Sep 15 10:50:21 1999 James Hu * ace/TP_Reactor.{cpp,h,i} (mask_ops): Fixed a problem where cancel_wakeup would fail. Since an event handler is suspended for the duration of the up-call, the wait_mask_ was being over-written by the suspend_mask_ when the event handler was resumed. This fixes the problem by extending TP_Reactor with its own implementations of mask_ops that operate on both wait_mask_ and suspend_mask_. Wed Sep 15 10:14:21 1999 Ossama Othman * docs/exceptions.html: Corrected some ACE_TRY_THROW examples. The exception being thrown must have a parameter list, even if it is empty (e.g.: ACE_TRY_THROW (CORBA::BAD_PARAM ());) Tue Sep 14 22:10:24 1999 Kristopher Johnson * ace/Process_Manager.cpp (wait): changed array index from i to idx. Thanks to Dave Madden for confirming this fix. Reverted this change: Tue Sep 14 16:01:04 1999 Christopher Kohlhoff because it's no longer necessary. Tue Sep 14 21:00:45 1999 Vishal Kachroo * ace/OS.h: Added a typedef for ACE_Protocol_Info for non-Win32 platforms. Defined it as a struct (with limited fields) instead of u_long because applications using ACE_Protocol_Info on non-Win32 platforms expect this to be a structure instead of a u_long. * ACE_wrappers/examples/QOS/Makefile: Added this for the test to compile on non-Win32 platforms. * ACE_wrappers/examples/QOS/server.cpp: * ACE_wrappers/examples/QOS/client.cpp: * ACE_wrappers/examples/QOS/QosEvent.h: * ACE_wrappers/examples/QOS/Sender_QOS_Event_Handler.cpp: Removed the last remains of win32isms from the test. The QoS test now compiles clean on non-Win32 platforms. Tue Sep 14 17:49:33 1999 Luther J Baker * ace/Arg_Shifter.cpp (get_the_parameter): removed an errant return 0; Tue Sep 14 16:01:04 1999 Christopher Kohlhoff * ace/Process_Manager.cpp (wait): moved declaration of loop index i out of the loop, because it is used outside the scope of the loop. Tue Sep 14 15:03:21 1999 Ossama Othman * bin/run_all_list.pm: Added ORB_init test to the list of tests to run. * configure.in: * configure: Do not define ACE_USE_POLL, even if system poll() works. Tue Sep 14 11:02:06 1999 Balachandran Natarajan * ace/Hash_Map_With_Allocator_T.h: * ace/Hash_Map_With_Allocator_T.cpp:Added a find () method that would lookup at the underlying Hash_Map_Manager_Ex to do the find. Sat Sep 11 12:18:22 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Pipe.cpp: Make sure to use SOCK_STREAM rather than SOCK_DGRAM when creating a socketpair. Thanks to Dave Madden for reporting this. Mon Sep 13 13:31:23 1999 Luther J Baker * ace/Arg_Shifter.cpp (get_the_parameter): continued -ORB parsing fixes. Allows one simple method to return a parameter value for defined flag is it exists. Mon Sep 13 11:01:24 1999 Nanbor Wang * examples/Shared_Malloc/test_persistence.cpp: Added comments on the use of scanf. Thanks to Wenli Bai for reporting the problem. Sun Sep 12 19:23:51 1999 Nanbor Wang * ACE version 5.0.4 released. Sat Sep 11 12:18:22 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Process_Manager.cpp: Reverted the following change so that we just add a fake "friend" to keep G++ happy... Also, fixed a typo where we should have allocated an ACE_Managed_Process rather than an ACE_Process. Thanks to Dave Madden for reporting this. * ace/Process_Manager.cpp: Added the ACE_CLASS_IS_NAMESPACE method to ACE_Managed_Process to make G++ happy. Also, removed the trailing '_' since we don't need this because we've prefixed "ACE_" already. Fri Sep 10 16:58:34 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/Malloc_T.cpp (open,shared_malloc): Added several placement new's if position independent malloc is enabled to avoid reading uninitialized memory. Fri Sep 10 16:39:13 1999 Vishal Kachroo * examples/QOS/README: * examples/QOS/server.cpp: * examples/QOS/client.cpp: * examples/QOS/Sender_QOS_Event_Handler.h: * examples/QOS/Sender_QOS_Event_Handler.cpp: Removed the Win32-isms from the above files and used cleaner ACE interfaces. Added a README file that describes the test. Fri Sep 10 16:38:51 1999 Nanbor Wang * tests/WinCE/*.dsp: VC 6 changed all the dsp files format. Fri Sep 10 11:20:47 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/SOCK_Acceptor.h, ace/SOCK_Connector.h: Updated the documentation to clarify what happens wrt blocking vs. non-blocking connects and accepts. Thanks to Jose Rubio for motivating this change. Thu Sep 9 16:27:56 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Process_Manager, ace/Process: Added some new patches from Dave Madden to obtain greater control over the spawn() behavior. Fri Sep 10 14:30:17 1999 Vishal Kachroo * ace/SOCK_Dgram_Mcast.i: * ace/SOCK_Dgram_Mcast.h: Added two send () functions using overlapped I/O to the ACE_SOCK_Dgram_Mcast class. These simply call the parent class functions with the same signature. The recv () functions need not be added as there is currently no recv () function within SOCK_Dgram_Mcast class to hide any parent class recv () functions. Fri Sep 10 12:24:17 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * THANKS: Added Joerg Pommnitz to the list of contributors. Thu Sep 9 22:48:56 1999 Darrell Brunsch * ace/config-hpux-10.x-hpc++.h: * ace/config-hpux-11.x-hpc++.h: Fixed spelling of ACE_PREPROCESSOR_ARGS to ACE_CC_PREPROCESSOR_ARGS. Thu Sep 9 18:22:21 CDT 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * ace/Future.cpp: HP/aCC was giving bogus warning about function without a return statement (the function only has a throw). Thu Sep 09 14:56:29 1999 David L. Levine * ACE-INSTALL.html: we now fully support QNX Neutrino 2.0. * ACE-INSTALL.html: expanded repo=1 discussion. [Bug 248] Thu Sep 09 13:21:03 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/ace_ce.dsw: * ace/ace_ce_dll.dsp: Changed to use the project file format for CE Toolkit for VC 6. * ace/config-WinCE.h: Added some macros definitons for POSIX error codes. They are removed for Palm-size CE v2.01. This configuration is still not working because its compilers don't support placement new, which I don't know how to work around. * ace/Process_Manager.cpp (wait): Applied ASYS_TEXT macros. * ace/OS.cpp (init,fini): Applied ACE_TEXT macros around error message print out. (print_error_message): Added a WinCE specialized implementation. Thu Sep 09 12:45:06 1999 David L. Levine * ace/config-qnx-neutrino.h: added ACE_HAS_SIGISMEMBER_BUG. Sigset_Ops_Test passes with that. Thu Sep 09 12:31:51 1999 David L. Levine * tests/Handle_Set_Test (handle_vector[]): limit the maximum handle in handle_vector to 31, 63, 127, and 254 if ACE_DEFAULT_REACTOR_SIZE is less than or equal to 32, 64, 128, and 256, respectively. [Bug 315] Thu Sep 9 09:39:46 1999 Kirthika Parameswaran * etc/purify.solaris2: Added suppression for MLK due to OS accept call. [Bug 227] Thu Sep 09 09:24:29 1999 David L. Levine * tests/run_tests.lst: disabled Signal_Test. [Bug 309] Thu Sep 9 08:46:58 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * tests/Lazy_Map_Manager_Test.cpp (main): ACEified this a bit and fixed a typo for the argv argument in main(). * Updated the ACE-mail.html file to put the *-request addresses first. Thanks to Lorin Hochstein for this suggestion. Wed Sep 08 23:01:22 1999 Nanbor Wang * examples/Service_Configurator/Misc/Timer_Service.h: Added ACE_Svc_Export specifiers. * examples/Service_Configurator/Misc/Misc.dsw: * examples/Service_Configurator/Misc/Timer.dsp: Added a new project file for the dll file. Wed Sep 08 22:19:47 1999 David L. Levine * ace/config-qnx-neutrino.h: added some magic to allow compilation to succeed when optimization is enabled, for x86 targets. The egcs 1.1.2 string.h #includes x86/string.h, which has anti-social #defines for memcmp, memcpy, and memset. Therefore, they can't be used as C++ member functions, such as in ACE_OS. The hack is to disable optimization just when #including string.h. * include/makeinclude/platform_qnx_neutrino.GNU: default both optimize and repo to 1. Wed Sep 8 17:25:07 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/OS.h (ACE_FACTORY_DEFINE): It shouldn't be necessary to use ACE_dynamic_cast() or ACE_static_cast() for the ACE_FACTORY_DEFINE macro because ACE_Service_Object's destructor is virtual. Thanks to Carlos for pointing this out. Wed Sep 8 16:51:45 1999 Kirthika Parameswaran * ace/Acceptor.cpp (handle_close): Removed a unnecessary check for which was causing UMR to occur. Wed Sep 08 16:48:55 1999 David L. Levine * include/makeinclude/wrapper_macros.gnu (purify): moved -ignore-signals option to tests/Makefile, because that's where it's needed. * tests/Makefile (purify): added SIGHUP and SIGTERM to -ignore-signals, to prevent warnings from Signal_Test. [Bug 309] Wed Sep 8 15:58:07 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * tests/Log_Msg_Test.cpp (test_ostream): Make sure to add 1 to the buffer we allocate dynamically so we can put a NUL at the end of it! Thanks to David Levine for reporting this. [Bug 312] * examples/Service_Configurator/Misc/main.cpp (main): Changed the test of the -f Service Configurator option so that it links two different svc.conf files to avoid reentrancy problems. * examples/Service_Configurator/Misc/svc.conf: Revised this svc.conf file (and the application) to illustrate the use of both static *and* dynamic service. Thanks to Amir Bahmanyari for motivating this. Wed Sep 8 14:05:00 1999 Kirthika Parameswaran * ace/Log_Msg.cpp: Shifted the instantiations to the top to keep SunCC5.0 debug=0 build happy. * tests/Cached_Accept_Conn_Test.cpp: Repositioned global declarations to ward off compilation errors on HP-UX. Wed Sep 8 13:13:18 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Process.h (ACE_Process): Made the spawn() method virtual so code can be executed just before and/or after the actual fork(). Thanks to Dave Madden for this fix. Tue Sep 07 19:55:52 1999 Irfan Pyarali * ace/Map_Manager.h (ACE_Map_Manager): The old map manager (the one before the changes made to support the active map manager) used to allow deletion of entries from the map during iteration (note that this feature was accidental since typically changes to container invalidates the iterators). The new design did not support this "feature". However, some users had come to depend on this feature. The solution was to delay the movement of freed slots from the occupied list to the free list until we run out of free slots in the free list when binding new entries into the map. However, this change requires additional state in each entry that keeps track of whether this entry has been freed. Also, the time required for binding new entries is less predictable since the bind may require moving of freed slots from the occupied list to the free list because of the initial lazy unbind. Changes were also required to the Active_Map_Manager since it directly depends on the internals of the Map_Manager. Since this lazy feature is not required in the majority of cases and results in increased memory consumption, this feature is only support if ACE_HAS_LAZY_MAP_MANAGER is defined. A new test Lazy_Map_Manager_Test.cpp was added to check the new changes. Thanks for Dr. Schmidt for helping with this solution and to Murphy Ivan for pointing out this problem. Bug fixed: id 228. Tue Sep 7 15:19:33 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * tests/Log_Msg_Test.cpp (test_ostream): NUL-terminated the buffer to avoid an array bounds overflow! Thanks to David Levine for reporting this. Tue Sep 7 12:38:37 1999 Darrell Brunsch * tests/Reactor_Timer_Test.cpp: Purify was showing an UMR in test_registering_one_handler(). This was because Time_Handler didn't have a constructor that initialized its timer_id_ member and it wasn't being set in this method (like the others). I added a default constructor to Time_Handler. [Bug 249] Tue Sep 7 08:04:41 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/OS.i (isatty): Fixed this code so that it doesn't use osf_handle() anymore on NT, but instead just casts the ACE_HANDLE to an int. Thanks to Mark Winrock for suggesting this fix and testing it out. * tests/run_tests.lst: Added Signal_Test. 1999-09-07 Douglas C. Schmidt * tests/Signal_Test.cpp (main): Fixed the test so that it won't try to run the "synchronous signal handler in a separate thread" on Linux because Linux threads are non-standard wrt signals. Mon Sep 6 21:19:27 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * tests/Signal_Test.cpp (run_test): Added an ACE_UNUSED_ARG for the synchronous_signal_handler pointer-to-function for the case where ACE_HAS_THREADS is disabled. Otherwise, we get a warning. Mon Sep 6 18:47:18 1999 Darrell Brunsch * ace/Process_Manager.h: Moved handle_signal outside of a !defined ACE_WIN32 block and moved handle_input inside of it, and this fixes some errors on MSVC. Mon Sep 6 14:19:14 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * tests/Reactor_Notify_Test.cpp (main): Added a hyphen to the ACE_DEBUG printout "with timeout =" so that it says "with time-out =" to avoid confusing the run_tests.sh script! Thanks to David Levine for reporting this. * ace/Process_Manager.cpp: Integrated more patches from Dave Madden so that the correct register_handler() method is used on Win32. Mon Sep 06 15:05:17 1999 David L. Levine * ace/Makefile: moved ACELIB setting (to null) to before include of rules.lib.GNU. That way, rules.lib.GNU can use the value of $(ACELIB) to determine whether the ACE library object files should be linked into the library, with repo=1. [Bug 248] * include/makeinclude/rules.lib.GNU: with repo=1 when building static libs, except for libACE, include all of the ACE lib's object files. The prevents multiple instantiations, by GNU repo, of templates that are used in the ACE library. See the gcc info pages, Template Instantiation node, for more information. [Bug 248] Mon Sep 6 08:45:31 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * examples/Reactor/WFMO_Reactor: Cleaned up some of the coding in the examples. * ace/Profile_Timer.cpp: Reformatted the code a bit. * examples/Threads/process_manager.cpp (main): Fixed some warnings and errors. Thanks to David for reporting this. * ace/OS.i: Fixed ACE_UNUSED_ARG(options) to be ACE_UNUSED_ARG(wait_options). Thanks to David's build logs for reporting this. * tests/Signal_Test.cpp: Changed the types of parameters passed to run_test() from int to long so that we can safely cast them to and from void *'s. Thanks to David Levine for pointing this out. * ace/Process_Manager.cpp (notify_proc_handler): Removed the now unused parameter h. Thanks to David for pointing this out. Mon Sep 06 07:25:01 1999 David L. Levine * ace/OS.h: added ACE_Export to ACE_OS_Exit_Info class declaration. It shouldn't be necessary, but Dmitry Goldshtain reports that Builder 4 needs it. Mon Sep 06 03:31:34 1999 Nanbor Wang * tests/Signal_Test.cpp (run_test): Removed a redundant use of ACE_UNUSED_ARG (synchronous_signal_handler). Thanks to KCC 3.3e for pointing this out. Mon Sep 6 01:03:03 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * examples/Threads/Makefile (BIN): Added process_manager.cpp back into the list of programs that get built automagically. * ace/Process_Manager: Added some new patches from Dave Madden that continue to improve the ACE_Process_Manager and make it portable between NT and UNIX. * examples/Threads: Readded process_manager.cpp now that Dave Madden has updated it. Sun Sep 05 23:52:16 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/OS.h (WIFEXITED,WEXITSTATUS): On platforms that do not define these macros, we should always assume the child process exit properly because the return status does not tell us how the process exited. Likewise, the WEXITSTATUS macro should simply return the status we got from ACE_OS::wait because it only contains the exit status of child process. Sun Sep 5 23:40:25 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * examples/QOS: Continued to improve the coding style so it'll look like normal "ACE" code. Sun Sep 05 21:32:40 1999 David L. Levine * ace/Synch.cpp: removed unnecessary #include of ace/Object_Manager.h. 1999-09-05 Vishal Kachroo Made the receiver of QOS test portable by removing Win32-isms from it. Files modified : * examples/QOS/QosEvent.h: * examples/QOS/server.cpp: Sun Sep 5 13:40:18 1999 Michael Kircher * ace/ACE.cpp: Made the status code to be of type ACE_exitcode instead of int. This is necessary because of the change on waitpid (). Sun Sep 5 10:59:18 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Process.i (wait): Removed the ACE_static_cast() Michael had added recently because the change below makes it unnecessary. * ace/OS.h (ACE_OS): Modified the 3-arg wait() and the waitpid() methods to take an ACE_exitcode* rather than int* so this will work on Win32. * ace/Log_Msg.cpp: Added a new explicit template instantiation for template class ACE_Guard >; to fix compiler errors that showed up with EGCS. * tests/Signal_Test.cpp (run_test): Added ACE_UNUSED_ARG macros for several symbols that aren't used when the test is compiled single threaded. Sat Sep 05 02:05:00 1999 Michael Kircher * ace/OS.cpp: Fixed a missing "#else". * ace/Process.i, ace/Process_Manager.h, ace/Process_Manager.cpp: Fixed an "int" versus "ACE_exitcode" conversion problem. Sat Sep 4 23:37:29 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/config-win32-common.h: Missing a '&&' that was causing problems on Win32. Thanks to Michael Kircher for reporting this. Sat Sep 04 20:24:32 1999 David L. Levine * ace/Handle_Gobbler.i (close_remaining_handles,free_handles): moved the function definitions ahead of their first use in the file. Sat Sep 04 20:17:49 1999 David L. Levine * ace/Pipe.cpp (open): added ACE_UNUSED_ARG (buffer_size) for all platforms that #define ACE_LACKS_SOCKET_BUFSIZ. Sat Sep 4 14:43:36 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * tests/Signal_Test.cpp: Finished off the test so that it now works for all the various combinations of synchronous and asynchronous tests. Now, to make it work on Linux... * ace/OS.h: The use of ACE_static_cast in the ACE_FACTORY_DEFINE macro didn't make any sense, so I've replaced it with ACE_dynamic_cast. * ace/Process_Manager.*, * ace/Process.*, * ace/OS.h: Created a new typedef called ACE_exitcode that factors out the difference between Win32 and UNIX exit codes from wait() operations. Thanks to Dave Madden for suggesting this. Sat Sep 04 12:22:38 1999 David L. Levine * ace/OS.i (shm_open,close,filesize,ftruncate,mmap): moved these functions up in the file so that they're defined before being used by ACE_OS::sema_init (). Fri Sep 3 11:57:24 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Event_Handler.h (ACE_Event_Handler): Added the new handle_exit() method, which is called by the ACE_Process_Manager when a process exits. Thanks to Dave Madden for contributing this. * ace/Process.*, ace/Process_Manager.*: Integrated a new round of changes from Dave Madden that factor out most of the remaining differences between Win32 and UNIX. * ace/OS.h, * ace/config-win32-common.h: Added a #ifndef for __IBMCPP__ to make things work for Visual Age C++. Thanks to Boris Kaminer for reporting this. * ace/{ACE,OS}: Added ACE_HAS_UNICODE to conditionally compile the strnew() definition. Thanks to Boris Kaminer for reporting this. * ace: Added a new optimized ace-dll.icc file so that ACE will build better with IBM's Visual Age C++. Thanks to Boris Kaminer for contributing this. * ace/OS.h, * ace/config-win32-common.h: Added a #ifndef for __IBMCPP__ to make things work for Visual Age C++. Thanks to Boris Kaminer for reporting this. * ace/{ACE,OS}: Added ACE_HAS_UNICODE to conditionally compile the strnew() definition. Thanks to Boris Kaminer for reporting this. * ace: Added a new optimized ace-dll.icc file so that ACE will build better with IBM's Visual Age C++. Thanks to Boris Kaminer for contributing this. 1999-09-03 Vishal Kachroo * ace/OS.i: * ace/OS.h: Added a new overloaded ACE_OS::ioctl () function that takes in ACE_QoS as one of the parameters, constructs a windows QOS from it and passes it to WSAIoctl (). This function can be used when the I/O control code is SIO_SET_QOS. Fri Sep 3 14:58:51 1999 Darrell Brunsch * config-aix-4.x.h: * config-hpux-10.x-hpc++.h: * config-hpux-11.x-hpc++.h: * config-mvs.h: * config-win32-borland.h: * config-win32.h: Moved many of the preprocessor information for various platforms from TAO_IDL to here (in ACE_CC_PREPROCESSOR and ACE_CC_PREPROCESSOR_ARGS). Fri Sep 3 13:52:43 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * bin/auto_compile: Fixed the implementation of the -dont_run option. Fri Sep 3 09:05:20 1999 Kirthika Parameswaran * ace/Containers_T.cpp (delete_nodes): Removed the redundant check which was verifying that was always > 0. But itself is unsigned so thsi check was redundant causing warnings with egcs. Thu Sep 2 23:54:49 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/Containers_T.h (class ACE_Double_Linked_List): Added more comments to stress that this is not a general purpose container class. Thanks to Rusty Conover for suggesting this. Thu Sep 2 18:39:23 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Process_Manager.cpp (handle_close): Did a better job of fixing the use of ACE_UNUSED_ARG to make EGCS happy. Thu Sep 2 12:21:41 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Select_Reactor_Base: Renamed the notify_set_, alloc_set_, and free_set_ to *_queue_ since that's what they really are! Thu Sep 2 17:42:22 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * ace/Malloc_T.cpp: Eliminated UMR problem with the position independent malloc support. Thanks to Doug for figuring this stuff out. Thu Sep 2 12:21:41 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * tests/Log_Msg_Test.cpp (test_log_msg_features): Changed the use of %p to prevent an error message from being printed that'll confuse the run_tests script. * Just added the 700th non-DOC group individual who has contributed to ACE+TAO over the years. In the last year, we've gone from 400 to 700 contributors, which is great! * tests/CDR_File_Test.cpp (main): Fixed a signed/unsigned warning and removed the unreferenced argc/argv parameters. * tests{run_tests.lst,Makefile}: Added the new ACE_Log_Msg.cpp test. * tests: Added a new test called Log_Msg_Test.cpp. This exercises the many features of the ACE_Log_Msg class. * tests/Object_Manager_Test.cpp (main): Just reformatted some stuff. Thu Sep 2 14:42:31 1999 Kirthika Parameswaran * tests/Cached_Accept_Conn_Test.cpp: Repositioned ACE_HAS_BROKEN_EXTENDED_TEMPLATES macro before the inclusion of the header since thats where the typedefs had been shifted. Also, to keep both gcc2.7.3 and sunCC5.0 w.o debugging symbols happy it was necessary to move the definitions of methods before the instantiations. Thu Sep 2 12:21:41 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/OS.h: Added an ACE_static_cast in the ACE_FACTORY_DEFINE macro to let the compiler catch "bad casts," i.e., when X isn't allow to be cast from an ACE_Service_Object. Thanks to Jody Hagins for suggesting this. * ace/config-win32-common.h: Deleted #define ACE_LACKS_STRPTIME and added #define ACE_HAS_STRPTIME #define ACE_LACKS_NATIVE_STRPTIME In addition, I removed the wday and yday stuff in ACE_OS::strptime(). Thanks to Kevin Lyda for suggesting this. * ace/OS.h: Make sure to add a cast to ACE_Service_Object * in the ACE_FACTORY_DEFINE macro so that the offset will be corrected automagically. Thanks to Eric C. Newton for reporting this and suggesting a fix. * ace/Log_Msg: Modified the msg_callback(ACE_Log_Msg_Callback *) method to return the existing ACE_Log_Msg_Callback * so we can support "chaining". * ace/Log_Msg.cpp: Added explicit template instantiations for ACE_Reverse_Lock. * ace/Log_Msg.cpp: Changed the implementation described below to use an ACE_Reverse_Lock, which is cool ;-). Thanks to Carlos for explaining how this worked. * ace/Log_Msg.cpp: Don't hold the lock during a msg_callback() to avoid deadlock. Thanks to Matthew Davis for reporting this. * tests/Cached_Accept_Conn_Test.cpp: Removed a "static" from int debug so that the friggin' SunC++ compiler will link... Thu Sep 02 11:04:18 1999 David L. Levine * bin/check_build_logs: added /dev/null to egrep invocation so that it always shows the file name. Thanks to Doug for reporting this. Thu Sep 02 11:02:25 1999 David L. Levine * ace/config-qnx-neutrino.h: added ACE_LACKS_SOCKET_BUFSIZ. Thu Sep 2 08:56:39 1999 Jeff Parsons * ace/CDR_Stream.h: * ace/CDR_Stream.i: Added << and >> operators for ACE_CDR::Char. These are not to be used by TAO or the IDL compiler, they are solely for use with the ACE library, so that 1-byte values can be streamed without using the CORBAisms to_char and from_char. Otherwise, if a 1-byte value were on the rhs of a CDR operator, the compiler will probably promote the operator to the one using ACE_CDR::Short, which is not at all what we want. Wed Sep 1 21:37:59 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * tests/Makefile (BIN): Added the new CDR_File_Test.cpp to the list of files that are automatically built. Also, added this to run_tests.lst. * tests: Added a new test called CDR_File_Test, which exercises the ACE_CDR_Stream features in conjunction with file I/O. Thanks to Giga Giguashvili . * tests/CDR_Test.cpp: Moved the main() function to the end of the file. * ace/OS.i: Moved the new ACE_OS::filesize() method down in this file until *after* the ACE_OS::close() method to prevent a "used before being inlined" error on DU. Thanks to David for reporting this. Wed Sep 1 20:41:03 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * tests/run_tests.lst: Disabled the Time_Service_Test, it was crashing the parent process. Wed Sep 01 19:46:30 1999 David L. Levine * bin/check_build_logs: allow log directory (-l option argument) to start with anything except -. Wed Sep 1 17:15:25 1999 Kirthika Parameswaran * ace/Arg_Shifter.cpp (get_current_parameter): Removed egcs warnings by making int and also cleaned up the code. Wed Sep 1 15:51:41 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * examples/Timer_Queue/Thread_Timer_Queue_Test.cpp: Fixed a typo where ACE_reinterpret_cast() was misspelled. Thanks to David for reporting this. * examples/QOS/server.cpp: "ACE"-ified this example. * ace/OS: Added a new method called ACE_OS::filesize() that takes a LPCTSTR so that we can pass a file name to this. * ace/config-win32-borland.h: Changed ACE_CC_COMPILER to CPP32.EXE on the recommendation of Christopher Kohlhoff . * ace/Synch.h: Updated the documentation of ACE_Semaphore::remove() to clarify that it should only be called by one thread to avoid race conditions. Thanks to Clarence Bishop for mentioning this. 1999-09-01 Vishal Kachroo * ACE_wrappers/ace/OS.h: * ACE_wrappers/ace/OS.i: Added a wrapper ACE_OS::enum_protocols () for WSAEnumProtocols(). Tested this function with the ACE QOS test. * examples/QOS/client.cpp: * examples/QOS/server.cpp: Replaced the occurences of WSAEnumProtocols with ACE_OS::enum_protocols () and successfully ran the QOS test. Wed Sep 1 15:51:41 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/OS.i: Ensure that ACE_OS::localtime_r() does the "Right Thing"[TM], i.e., returns the pointer in the buffer provided by the user, even if there's no native support for localtime_r() on the OS platform. In addition, added an ACE_OS_GUARD for this use-case so that we don't have race conditions in MT programs. This necessitated moving the localtime_r() wrapper facade into the OS.cpp file. Thanks to Jody Hagins for these suggestions. * ace/SV_Semaphore_Complex: Improved the documentation a bit based on comments from Herbert . Wed Sep 1 15:15:00 1999 Luther Baker * ace/Arg_Shifter.h: Added function (get_current_parameter(offset) to return parameters that may be mangled with flags. * ace/Arg_Shifter.cpp: Implemented function above. Wed Sep 1 14:50:48 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/OS.h: Added definitions for _O_BINARY, _O_TEXT, and _O_RAW if they are not defined. Thanks to Kevin Lyda for pointing this out. Wed Sep 1 14:30:58 1999 Darrell Brunsch * ace/Process_Manager.cpp: Typo fixed. Wed Sep 1 11:18:26 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * tests/Reactor_Notify_Test.cpp: Fixed an erroneous use of = rather than != and added another pair of explicit template instantiations for ACE_Auto_Basic_Ptr<>. Thanks to Carlos for reporting this. * ace/Process_Manager.cpp (handle_close): Removed a warning about unused parameter. Thanks to David for reporting this. * tests/Reactor_Notify_Test.cpp: I needed to add #elif defined (ACE_HAS_TEMPLATE_INSTANTIATION_PRAGMA) rather than #else Wed Sep 01 11:55:31 1999 Steve Huston * ace/CORBA_Handler.{h cpp} (ACE_ST_CORBA_Handler): Made the ACE_ST_CORBA_Handler instance get cleaned up via object manager at rundown, giving it a chance to clean up it's reactor registrations and reset its Orbix callbacks. Also added a new capability of allowing the ACE_ST_CORBA_Handler to daisy-chain the Orbix callbacks - this is only enabled if ACE_TAKEOVER_ORBIX_CALLBACKS is set in the config.h file, and its use is highly discouraged unless you really know what you're doing and can account for all of the callbacks. Wed Sep 1 11:18:26 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt Thanks to David for reporting this. * tests/run_tests.lst: Disabled the Process_Manager_Test until it's stable. Thanks to David for reporting this. Wed Sep 1 00:05:04 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/config-win32-borland.h: Added a #define for ACE_CC_COMPILER so that things will work properly on Borland. Thanks to Goldshtain Dmitry and Adrian Mercieca for reporting this. Wed Sep 01 10:45:15 1999 David L. Levine * ace/OS.{h,cpp} (ACE_OS_Object_Manager::init,fini): replaced use of ACE_ERROR with a new, private method (print_error_message). If one of the operations in init () fails, then the Log_Msg instance might not work properly. Thanks to Alain Magloire for noting this. print_error_message also consolidates the common const char strings into one place. This entire changes reduces the size of OS.o by about 900 bytes. Wed Sep 1 00:05:04 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * tests/Reactor_Notify_Test.cpp: Only run the iterations in this test for 2000 times, not 10000 times. Wed Sep 1 07:41:58 1999 Jeff Parsons * ace/Process_Manager.cpp (wait): An ACE_NEW_RETURN needed ACE_INVALID_PID for the return value instead of ACE_INVALID_HANDLE. Wed Sep 1 00:05:04 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * tests/Process_Manager_Test.cpp: Made some minor changes in this test so that it'll compile. We still need to update it so it'll run correctly with the new version of ACE_Process_Manager, however. * ace/Process_Manager: Integrated the latest and greatest ACE_Process_Manager from Dave Madden . This should now work relatively transparently on all OS platforms that support processes. We'll be adding a new Process_Manager_Test.cpp shortly... * tests/Reactor_Notify_Test.cpp: Modified this test to exercise the new user-level notification queueing in the ACE_Reactor. Tue Aug 31 16:05:14 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Process_Manager.cpp (handle_close): Added an ACE_UNUSED_ARG to keep the compiler from warning that the "handle" parameter isn't used. * ace/OS.h: Added a new #defined called ACE_REACTOR_NOTIFICATION_ARRAY_SIZE that designates the size of the array of ACE_Notification_Buffers used by the new Reactor user-level notification queue feature. * ace/Select_Reactor_Base: Added support for a user-level notification queue that can buffer very large amounts of pending notifications, i.e., well beyond the 64 kbyte limit imposed by the use of a socket. This feature is only enabled if ACE_HAS_REACTOR_NOTIFICATION_QUEUE is enabled in a config.h file. Thanks to Detlef Becker for suggesting this and contributing a prototype implementation. Tue Aug 31 20:10:49 1999 Yamuna Krishnamurthy * ace/OS.h: Added the ACE_HAS_NO_THROW_SPEC check in order to suppress the generation of throw specs to placate some compilers and make it easier for CORBA developers to by lazy wrt C++ exception throw specs ;-). Thank to Andreas Geisler for suggesting this addition 1999-08-31 Vishal Kachroo Modified the ACE GQoS test to use a single handler registered for QOS_MASK|READ_MASK instead of two separate handlers. Had to remove the following files and add other files. * ACE_wrappers/examples/QOS/QOS_Event_Handler.cpp * ACE_wrappers/examples/QOS/Read_Handler.h * ACE_wrappers/examples/QOS/QOS_Event_Handler.h * ACE_wrappers/examples/QOS/Read_Handler.cpp Added the following files : The Sender event handler is only registered for QOS events. It uses the ACE_OS::sendto () as soon as it receives a QOS event. * ACE_wrappers/examples/QOS/Sender_QOS_Event_Handler.cpp * ACE_wrappers/examples/QOS/Sender_QOS_Event_Handler.h The Receiver event handler is registered for both QOS as well as READ events since it has to initially wait for a PATH RSVP message from the sender (QOS event, finally!!) and then read from the same QOS enabled socket. * ACE_wrappers/examples/QOS/Receiver_QOS_Event_Handler.cpp * ACE_wrappers/examples/QOS/Receiver_QOS_Event_Handler.cpp The client and server have been modified to subscribe to the same multicast session. The RSVP SP on the receiver side sends RESV messages at the earliest indication of QOS parameters AND existence of a matching PATH state. This state is found only if a multicast socket has been created (by the sender) with a matching "multicast session" address. * ACE_wrappers/examples/QOS/server.cpp: * ACE_wrappers/examples/QOS/client.cpp: Modified the following to incorporate the removal and addition of files listed above. * ACE_wrappers/examples/QOS/QOS.dsw * ACE_wrappers/examples/QOS/client.dsp * ACE_wrappers/examples/QOS/server.dsp Tue Aug 31 16:05:14 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Malloc_T, * ace/Malloc: For historical reasons, we'd had a nested class called ACE_Malloc_Control_Block within ACE_Malloc_Header. This was redundant and confusing, so I merged the fields of ACE_Malloc_Control_Block into ACE_Malloc_Header. In addition, I also added a constructor that initialized the fields to 0 so that we won't have problems with Purify complaining about uninitialized memory reads. Thanks to Carlos for reporting this. Tue Aug 31 15:54:56 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Process_Manager.h: There was a bizarre default value for the pid parameter, which was helping to cause ambiguity warnings from the C++ compiler. I've removed this. Tue Aug 31 00:16:34 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * build/egcs/tests/Cached_Accept_Conn_Test.h: Moved the template class into the header file so that IBM C++ will be happy. * tests/Cached_*_Test.h: Updated these files to include the proper descriptive information. * tests/Upgradable_RW_Test.h: Cleaned up the formatting for this test. * tests/Cached_Accept_Conn_Test.cpp, * tests/Cached_Conn_Test.cpp, * tests/Conn_Test.cpp, * tests/DLList_Test.cpp, * tests/Hash_Map_Manager_Test.cpp: Fixed some "order of definition" problems caused by the workarounds for SunC++ 5.0 -g bugs. Also replaced the use of ADDR and STRING with ACE_ADDR and ACE_STRING to avoid potential clashes with symbols in the global name space. Thanks to David for reporting this. 1999-08-31 Vishal Kachroo * ACE_wrappers/examples/QOS/server.cpp * ACE_wrappers/examples/QOS/client.cpp * ACE_wrappers/examples/QOS/QOS_Event_Handler.cpp * ACE_wrappers/examples/QOS/QosEvent.h * ACE_wrappers/examples/QOS/Read_Handler.h * ACE_wrappers/examples/QOS/QOS_Event_Handler.h * ACE_wrappers/examples/QOS/Read_Handler.cpp * ACE_wrappers/examples/QOS/QOS.dsw * ACE_wrappers/examples/QOS/client.dsp * ACE_wrappers/examples/QOS/server.dsp: These files test the new ACE GQoS features, which implement IntServ features over WinNT 2000. Tue Aug 31 14:47:54 1999 Kirthika Parameswaran * ACE-INSTALL.html: Added a note on building egcs with the -fsquangle option contributed by Skye Sweeney . Tue Aug 31 00:16:34 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * bin/clone.cpp: Modified this program so that it'll work more flexibly with symbolic links. In particular, clone can now generate symbolic links with relative pathnames to the source. Thus, you can now call it like this: % clone -s ../../foo . and all of the cloned links will properly refer to ../../foo (adding the appropriate number of extra '..'s to handle directory nesting). Thanks to Jonathan Biggar for these fixes. * ace/Process.cpp: Need to #include "ace/Signal.h". * Added a series of fixes that allow ACE to build and run cleanly with SunC++ 5.0 and Solaris 7 even when debugging is NOT enabled. These changes require moving the explicit template instantiations from the BOTTOM of the *.cpp files to near the top. Thanks to Robert Shewan for reporting this. * ace/Process_Manager.cpp: Fixed some warnings. Thanks to Carlos for reporting this. Mon Aug 30 21:14:46 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Process_Manager.cpp: Added the destructor for ACE_Process_Descriptor. Thanks to David for reporting this. Mon Aug 30 17:20:56 1999 David L. Levine * ace/config-qnx-neutrino.h: added ACE_LACKS_MUTEXATTR_PSHARED. * ace/OS.i (mutex_init): enable the ACE_UNUSED_ARG (type) statement with ACE_LACKS_MUTEXATTR_PSHARED. Mon Aug 30 17:10:00 1999 Kirthika Parameswaran * ACE-INSTALL.html: Added a note about the "-fsquangle" option to be used with egcs to shorten long symbol names. Mon Aug 30 16:12:36 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Process.i: Oops, the implementation of gethandle() was in a Win32-specific part of the code... * ace/Msg_WFMO_Reactor.h: Fixed a problem that was causing ACE_Msg_WFMO_Reactor from being included in the documentation windex files. Thanks to Jody Hagins for reporting this. Mon Aug 30 16:16:46 1999 Ossama Othman * PROBLEM-REPORT-FORM: Updated to point to refer reports ace-bugs mailing list. Mon Aug 30 14:27:26 1999 David L. Levine * tests/Cached_Accept_Conn_Test.cpp,Cached_Conn_Test.cpp, Map_Manager.cpp: use the explicit template instantiations even with ACE_HAS_GNU_REPO. g++ 2.91.66 misses some of them with -frepo. Mon Aug 30 15:23:12 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Process_Manager: Integrated the new features that make it possible to notify a Reactor when a process exits. Thanks to Dave Madden for contributing this. * ace/Process: Added a more portable timed wait() operation for UNIX platforms. However, this method has the following two limitations: (1) on UNIX platforms this function uses , i.e., it overwrites any existing alarm and (2) it steals all SIGCHLDs during the timeout period, which will break another ACE_Process_Manager in the same process that's expecting SIGCHLD to kick off process reaping. If you know a good solution to this please let us know. Thanks to Dave Madden for contributing this. * ace/Process: Added setgroup() and getgroup() methods to ACE_Process_Options so that we can manage groups of processes. Thanks to Dave Madden for contributing this. * examples/OS/Process/process.cpp: Added a new version that tests the various wait() methods on ACE_Process. Thanks to Dave Madden for contributing this. * config-chorus.h, config-cray.h, config-cygwin32-common.h, config-freebsd-pthread.h, config-freebsd.h, config-hpux-9.x.h, config-hpux-9.x.h, config-lynxos.h, config-netbsd.h, config-sunos4-g++.h, config-sunos4-lucid3.2.h, config-sunos4-sun3.x.h, config-sunos4-sun4.1.4.h, config-sunos4-sun4.x-orbix.h, config-sunos4-sun4.x.h, config-win32-common.h: Added ACE_LACKS_SETPGID on the assumption that platforms lacking getpgid() won't have setpgid() either. If this turns out to be incorrect, please let me know. * ace/OS: Added a new wrapper facade method for setpgid(). Thanks to Dave Madden for contributing this. * ace/OS.h: Added a new macro called ACE_INVALID_PID. Thanks to Dave Madden for contributing this. * ace/Local_Tokens.h: Added a comment explaining that these locking classes aren't intended as general-purpose synchronization mechanisms. Thanks to Brian Wright * examples/Misc/test_trace.cpp (main): Added a call to ACE_OS::atexit() to make sure we test this someplace. Mon Aug 30 12:11:06 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * ace/Strategies.i: Once a Recyclable object reaches the ACE_RECYCLABLE_CLOSED state its state cannot change. This eliminates a nasty race condition where one thread detects that the connection is closed (and sets the state accordingly), but another thread changes the state to IDLE, based on old information. Thanks to Mark L Boriack for reporting this problem and helping us debug it. Mon Aug 30 10:43:08 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * ace/config-irix6.x-common.h: Added ACE_HAS_SIGSUSPEND and ACE_HAS_TIMEDWAIT Mon Aug 30 10:18:52 1999 Ossama Othman * PROBLEM-REPORT-FORM: Fixed typo. * acconfig.h: * configure.in: Removed ACE_LACKS_ATEXIT test since the macro no longer exists. Added test for ACE_HAS_SIGSUSPEND. Mon Aug 30 07:38:11 1999 David L. Levine * tests/Message_Block_Test.cpp, examples/Reactor/Misc/test_event_handler_t.cpp: use the explicit template instantiations even with ACE_HAS_GNU_REPO. g++ 2.91.66 misses some of them with -frepo. Sun Aug 29 22:57:26 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * tests/Signal_Test.cpp (worker_parent): Revised the test so that we transmit the parent process ID in argv so that the child doesn't have to "guess." This solves the annoying problems with Linux threads... Sun Aug 29 21:35:17 1999 David L. Levine * ace/config-g++-common.h: 1) Don't #define ACE_HAS_EXPLICIT_INSTANTIATION with ACE_HAS_GNU_REPO, so that -frepo can do its thing. [Bug 248] 2) #undef ACE_HAS_STRING_CLASS with ACE_HAS_GNU_REPO, because egcs 2.91.66 can't build IOStream test (due to an unresolved basic_string method instantiation) otherwise. * ace/config-aix-4.x.h,ace/config-cygwin32-common.h, ace/config-hpux-10.x-g++.h,ace/config-irix5.3-g++.h, ace/config-irix6.x-g++.h,ace/config-linux-common.h, ace/config-lynxos.h,ace/config-osf1-4.0.h,ace/config-sunos4-g++.h, ace/config-sunos5.4-g++.h,ace/config-sunos5.5.h, ace/config-unixware-2.*-g++.h: moved ACE_HAS_STRING_CLASS #define before #include of config-g++common.h, so that config-g++-common.h can #undef it with ACE_HAS_GNU_REPO. * include/makeinclude/rules.lib.GNU: when ace_lib_prelink is enabled, add a link step before building a library. This is used, for example, to insert template instantiations into object files. [Bug 248] * include/makeinclude/wrapper_macros.GNU: set ace_lib_prelink to 1 when repo is enabled. Added ACE_NUL and ACE_NUL_STDERR macros, for internal use to support the prelink step. [Bug 248] Sun Aug 29 07:53:33 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * tests/Signal_Test.cpp: Linux threads are problematic because getppid() isn't the process id of your parent PROCESS, it's the "process" id of your parent THREAD. Yikes! Therefore, I had to rearrange this test so that it'll work on Linux. * ace/config-qnx-neutrino.h, * ace/config-vxworks5.x.h, * ace/config-osf1-4.0.h, * ace/config-sunos5.5.h, * ace/config-linux-common.h: Added support for the ACE_HAS_SIGTIMEDWAIT and ACE_HAS_SIGSUSPEND macros. * ace/OS: Added a new sigsuspend() wrapper to class ACE_OS. This implementation is "smarter" than the default behavior of sigsuspend(2) because it'll handle NULL sigset_t *'s gracefully. * ace/Signal: Make the use of ACE_Sig_Set & parameters const-correct. * ace/Signal: Added a new method for ACE_Sig_Action that'll register an ACE_Sig_Set's worth of signals simultaneously. * ace/Signal: Updated the documentation to explain what the various constructors do. * ace/Process.h: Updated the documentation for ACE_Process::spawn() to explain what the return values are. * tests/Makefile: Added Signal_Test to the list of tests that are built automatically. * tests: Added a new test, Signal_Test.cpp, that exercises the various signal handling capabilities supported by ACE on various OS platforms. * ace/OS.h, * ace/README, * ace/config-vxworks5.x.h: Removed all mention of the ACE_LACKS_ATEXIT feature. This is now the default behavior because we ACE_OS_Object_Manager::at_exit() to get consistent semantics, as described below. Thanks to David for pointing this out. * ace/OS.i: Changed the implementation of ACE_OS::atexit() to always use the ACE_OS_Object_Manager::instance ()->at_exit() method so that we get consistent semantics across platforms. Sun Aug 29 18:27:38 1999 Ossama Othman * ACE.ifnames: * ace-diff-config.in: Removed ace-diff-config.in and ACE.ifnames from the repository. They are only used for internal ACE Configuration Project testing. * Makefile.am: * configure.in: Removed references to ace-diff-config.in and ACE.ifnames. * acconfig.h: * configure.in: Added entries and tests for the following macros: ACE_AUTO_PTR_LACKS_RESET ACE_HAS_LLSEEK ACE_HAS_EXPLICIT_KEYWORD ACE_HAS_MUTABLE_KEYWORD ACE_HAS_STD_TEMPLATE_SPECIALIZATION ACE_HAS_STD_TEMPLATE_METHOD_SPECIALIZATION ACE_HAS_SIGTIMEDWAIT ACE_LACKS_ATEXIT ACE_LACKS_GETPPID * configure.in: Fixed auto_ptr test. auto_ptr was being used incorrectly. Sun Aug 29 07:53:33 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * tests/Process_Manager_Test.cpp: Changed the names of the signal handlers to one_child_synchronous_signal_handler() and multiple_children_synchronous_signal_handler() to reflect how they are used. * ace/OS.[hi]: Added a new wrapper for sigtimedwait() so that we can encapsulate this. To make programming more consistent, the encapsulation uses an ACE_Time_Value, rather than a struct timespec. * ace/config-linux-pthread.h, * ace/config-linux-lxpthreads.h: Removed the #define ACE_HAS_SIGWAIT macro since this was already defined in config-linux-common.h. * tests/Malloc_Test.cpp: Improved the test by printing out additional diagnostic information. Also validated that it works when ACE_DEFAULT_BASE_ADDR == 0 on Solaris using SunCC (with purify) and EGCS. * ace/Malloc: Added a dump() method to ACE_Malloc_Header. * ace/Process_Manager.cpp (ACE_Process_Descriptor): Changed a -1 to a 0 to prevent a compiler warning. Thanks to David Levine and DEC UNIX for reporting this. Sun Aug 29 00:14:09 1999 Luther Baker * ace/Arg_Shifter.h (cur_arg_strncasecmp): Removed and replaced earlier method 'is_or_contains_ignore_case' with 'cur_arg_strncasecmp.' This method does less and it is more self-contained, adding protection and greater flexibility for the program program using it. * ace/Arg_Shifter.cpp (cur_arg_strncasecmp): Implementation corresponding with changes in ACE_Arg_Shifter class. Sun Aug 29 00:13:35 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Process_Manager.i: Moved the destructor for ACE_Process_Descriptor out of the *.i file since it's always called by vector delete and therefore inlining it is pointless. Sat Aug 28 23:46:55 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Process_Manager.cpp (resize): The loop should run from 0 < this->current_count_ rather than 0 < this->max_process_table_size_. Sat Aug 28 16:28:33 1999 David L. Levine * ace/Synch_T.i: reordered some methods to avoid use before definition. Fri Aug 27 18:52:00 1999 Luther Baker * ace/Arg_Shifter.h (is_or_contains_ignore_case): added method to facilitate CORBA spec in ORB_init. * ace/Arg_Shifter.cpp (is_or_contains_ignore_case): implemented the method added. Part of a larger project to implement CORBA spec regarding -ORB parsing in ORB_init. Fri Aug 27 18:58:50 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * tests/run_tests.lst: Reenabled the Process_Manager_Test since it now seems to work fine with EGCS after the fix noted below. Fri Aug 27 18:39:14 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Process_Manager.cpp (wait): Fixed a mistake in the coding logic whereby we were returning from the function in a loop even when there was no error. Thanks to David Levine and DEC UNIX for pointing this out. Fri Aug 27 16:05:49 1999 David L. Levine * ace/OS.*,Log_Msg.cpp,Synch_T.i: reverted changes of Fri Aug 27 11:29:21 1999 David L. Levine to see if they caused problems on NT. Thanks to Michael and Jeff for reporting this. Fri Aug 27 12:01:37 1999 David L. Levine * ace/OS.cpp (mktime): added static cast of -1 return value to time_t to avoid warnings on VxWorks. Fri Aug 27 11:38:36 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/Service_Config.cpp (process_directives): Remember to close down the svc.conf file pointers once they are processed. Thanks to Lothar Werzinger for pointing this out. Fri Aug 27 11:29:21 1999 David L. Levine * ace/OS.*: moved ACE_OS_Recursive_Thread_Mutex_Guard from OS.cpp to OS.h so that Log_Msg.cpp can use it. * ace/Log_Msg.cpp: replaced use of ACE_Guards with ACE_OS_Thread_Recursive_Mutex. [Bug 262] * ace/OS.h (ACE_OS_Recursive_Thread_Mutex_Guard::lock): added this method. * ace/OS.cpp (ACE_OS_GUARD,ACE_TSS_CLEANUP_GUARD, ACE_TSS_BASE_GUARD): fixed to use ACE_OS_Recursive_Thread_Mutex_Guard::lock. Added _RETURN versions. * ace/Synch_T.i: reordered some methods to avoid use before definition. Fri Aug 27 09:53:09 1999 Joe Hoffert * ace/ATM_Stream.{h,cpp}: added get_vpi_vci method. * examples/IPC_SAP/ATM_SAP/CPP-{client,server}.cpp: Changed tests to print out VPI and VCI after connected. Fri Aug 27 10:50:10 1999 David L. Levine * ACE version 5.0.3 released. Fri Aug 27 09:32:26 1999 David L. Levine * bin/make_release: added some diagnostics to see why diffs aren't being created. Fri Aug 27 07:17:58 1999 Toshio Hori * ACE-INSTALL.html: fixed a typo, missing ; after < and >. Thu Aug 26 21:01:02 1999 Jim Rucker * ace/Thread_Manager.cpp (spawn_i): on VxWorks, if t_handle is non-0, set it with thr_handle. Thu Aug 26 16:33:42 1999 David L. Levine * ace/Log_Msg.cpp: removed unnecessary #include "ace/Synch_T.h". [Bug 262] Thu Aug 26 13:49:00 1999 David L. Levine * examples/Threads/Makefile: removed process_manager from BIN. See Sat Aug 21 12:36:40 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt. Thu Aug 26 12:22:55 1999 David L. Levine * ace/config-ghs-common.h: on Sun, added ACE_HAS_NONSTATIC_OBJECT_MANAGER. It's necessary to prevent seg fault on startup. Thanks to David Sunwall for reporting this problem. Thu Aug 26 12:11:09 1999 David L. Levine * docs/ACE-guidelines.html: added guidelines to avoid default arguments, and favor narrow interfaces. Thu Aug 26 11:44:26 1999 David L. Levine * tests/Time_Value_Test.cpp (main): added static casts of the doubles to longs. g++ 2.7.2.3 warned about passing a double to a long :-) Thu Aug 26 11:20:55 1999 David L. Levine * tests/Time_Value_Test.cpp (main): added a test showing that ACE_Time_Value (2.5) == ACE_Time_Value (2). The 2.5 gets coerced to a long with value 2. Beware . . . Thu Aug 26 10:43:04 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * ace/config-sunos5.6.h: egcs-2.95 under Solaris 5.6 does not need ACE_HAS_STL_QUEUE_CONFLICT, thanks to Krishnakumar B. for reporting this problem. This fixes [BUGID:264] Thu Aug 26 07:29:42 1999 David L. Levine * ace/OS.{h,i} (ACE_Time_Value): reverted Wed Aug 25 22:05:54 1999 David L. Levine change. It caused overload ambiguity when the types of sec and usec didn't match, and on Sun CC 4.2/SunOS 5.6. Thanks to Andy for reporting that. Wed Aug 25 22:05:54 1999 David L. Levine * ace/OS.{h,i} (ACE_Time_Value): added four new constructors. One takes a double, to avoid surprises (truncation) when constructing an ACE_Time_Value from a double. The other three constructors take two unsigned longs, ints, and unsigned ints. They avoid the ambiguity introduced by the new double constructor. Thanks to Dave Meyer for starting this :-) The double constructor is wrapped with #ifndef ACE_LACKS_FLOATING_POINT. * tests/Time_Value_Test.cpp (main): removed cast of 2.0 to long. Wed Aug 25 16:15:07 1999 David L. Levine * docs/ACE-subsets.html: removed spurious LOGGING_FILES text. Wed Aug 25 15:55:05 1999 David L. Levine * ace/OS.{h,cpp},Object_Manager.*,Signal.i (default_mask): moved the default_mask () static method from ACE_Object_Manager to ACE_OS_Object_Manager, so that it can be used by Log_Msg.cpp without layer inversion. (Left a deprecated, inline ACE_Object_Manager::default_mask (), for backward compatibility.) default_mask () now returns a sigset_t * instead of an ACE_Sig_Set *, again to avoid layer inversion. * ace/Log_Msg.cpp (log): replaced use of ACE_Sig_Guard with a bare-bones ACE_Log_Msg_Sig_Guard. [Bug 262] Wed Aug 25 14:53:58 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * bin/run_all.pl: * bin/auto_compile: The script did not start with the canonical trick to run perl from [t]csh, [ba]sh or perl itself. Wed Aug 25 14:45:06 1999 Ossama Othman * tests/Process_Manager_Test.cpp: Explicitly include "ace/Signal.h" to make declaration of ACE_Sig_Set class visible. return statement at end of multiple_children_sig_handler() function is never reached. It was commented out to prevent compiler warnings. Wed Aug 25 13:34:07 1999 Narendra Ravi * ACE-INSTALL.html: added information about -j GNU make option. Wed Aug 25 12:26:49 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * ace/OS.h: On Borland C++ (and other platforms) we should use std::bad_alloc instead of bad_alloc for the ACE_bad_alloc exception. We use the ACE_USES_STD_NAMESPACE_FOR_STDCPP_LIB macro to detect this. Thanks to Jody Hagins for this fix. * tests/run_tests.lst: Disabled the Token test, it is more trouble that it is worth. It hangs and tends to freeze the complete testsuite. Wed Aug 25 12:09:32 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * Makefile: Include (conditionally) the $TAO_ROOT/tao/tao_targets.GNU file, that defines the targets required to compile just TAO. Tue Aug 24 21:47:44 1999 David L. Levine * ace/Synch_Options.{h,cpp} (timeout): added const to ACE_Time_Value & argument, because it's not modified. Thanks to John Lindal for suggesting this. Tue Aug 24 10:02:51 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * tests/Process_Manager_Test.cpp: Fixed a number of warnings caused by unused args and signed/unsigned mismatches. Thanks to David Levine for reporting this. * ace/Service_Repository.h, ace/Service_Config.h, ace/OS.h: Changed the default number of entries in the ACE_Service_Repository from ACE_DEFAULT_SELECT_REACTOR_SIZE to ACE_DEFAULT_SERVICE_REPOSITORY_SIZE, which defaults to 1024. Thanks to Ivan Murthy for suggesting this. Tue Aug 24 16:23:07 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * bin/make_release: Use an explicit temporary file to create the ChangeLog, i had some problems with the previous scheme, but it could be my shell. When tagging TAO we have to change directories. Tue Aug 24 12:19:29 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * tests/Makefile: Updated dependencies * performance-tests/TCP/tcp_test.cpp: Fixed argument parsing. Tue Aug 24 10:37:02 1999 David L. Levine * bin/cvslog (find_changelogs): one more time: append /$file to `pwd`, so that we can find ChangeLogs in child directories. Always call basename (), again. Tue Aug 24 09:10:58 1999 David L. Levine * bin/cvslog (find_changelogs): don't call basename () immediately after calling `pwd`, so that ChangeLogs in current directory will be found. Tue Aug 24 07:11:52 1999 David L. Levine * ace/OS.*,Object_Manager.{h,cpp},README: with ACE_LACKS_ATEXIT, use ACE_OS_Object_Manager::at_exit () to emulate atexit (). [Bug 246] * tests/Object_Manager_Test.cpp,tests/Makefile, tests/run_pharlap_tests.bat,tests/run_tests.bat, tests/run_tests.lst,tests/run_tests.psosim, tests/run_tests.vxworks,tests/t.icc,tests/icc.bat: added Object_Manager_Test. Mon Aug 23 22:03:24 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * include/makeinclude/rules.lib.GNU: * include/makeinclude/rules.local.GNU: When compiling both shared and static libraries only one of them was installed. Thanks to Paul Calabrese for providing this fix. Mon Aug 23 21:41:43 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * tests/run_tests.pl: We search for "Starting" instead of "starting" because that's what the tests print out now. Mon Aug 23 21:20:28 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * docs/ACE-guidelines.html: Added new guidelines relevant to ACE+TAO. Mon Aug 23 16:57:13 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * performance-tests/RPC/README: * performance-tests/RPC/client.cpp: Changed the options to make it more consistent with other tests like this one. Added a README file Mon Aug 23 16:53:00 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * performance-tests/Makefile: * performance-tests/TCP/README: Added a README file for the test * performance-tests/TCP/tcp_test.cpp: Added options to pace the events and to control the message size on the server side. * performance-tests/RPC/Makefile: * performance-tests/RPC/client.cpp: * performance-tests/RPC/ping.x: * performance-tests/RPC/server.c: Added a simple RPC test to compare sockets (ACE), RPC and TAO. Mon Aug 23 13:30:32 1999 Nanbor Wang * include/makeinclude/platform_sunos5_kcc.GNU: The optimization flag for KCC should be +K3, not -K2. Mon Aug 23 10:56:40 1999 David L. Levine * bin/cvslog: added this wrapper around cvs log. It expands ChangeLogTags to their ChangeLog entries. Thanks to Luther for helping greatly with it. Mon Aug 23 08:46:37 1999 David L. Levine * ace/Object_Manager.{h,cpp}: replaced the use of ACE_Unbounded_Queue with a new ACE_Cleanup_Info_Node private helper class. The reduces the size of libACE by over 4 Kb, and is the first step towards moving the Object_Manager's atexit () support to OS. [Bug 246] Mon Aug 23 07:28:02 1999 David L. Levine * tests/run_tests.check: changed "starting" to "Starting", to match a recent change to test_config.h. * tests/test_config.h: changed one remaining "starting" to "Starting", to be consistent. Mon Aug 23 07:08:17 1999 David L. Levine * tests/run_tests.lst: disabled Process_Manager_Test, because it never terminates when built with egcs on both Solaris 7 and Linux. Sun Aug 22 21:15:13 1999 David L. Levine * ace/Makefile: with Green Hills for x86 target, use $(MAKE) instead of make to build .obj/gethrtime.o. Thanks to Cliff_H_Campbell for reporting this. Sun Aug 22 21:02:26 1999 David L. Levine * ace/config-vxworks5.x.h: added ACE_LACKS_ATEXIT. Sun Aug 22 21:01:18 1999 David L. Levine * ace/README: added ACE_LACKS_ATEXIT. Sun Aug 22 14:51:56 1999 Vishal Kachroo * ace/OS.i (join_leaf): Constructed a winsock2 QOS structure within ACE_OS::join_leaf () from the corresponding ACE QOS classes. Passed this QOS structure to WSAJoinLeaf (). Sun Aug 22 12:18:42 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/Process.i (wait): Fixed a typo. * ace/Process.cpp (ACE_Process): Removed an extra underscore. * ace/OS.i (getppid): Removed undefined variable . Sat Aug 21 12:36:40 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/OS.h: Moved the ACE_OS::set_exit_hook() static method into the OS.i file so be more consistent with the other ACE_OS methods. Also, changed the signature of extern "C" void ACE_OS_Object_Manager_Internal_Exit_Hook () to void ACE_OS_Object_Manager_Internal_Exit_Hook (void) so that this will match the type declaration for ACE_EXIT_HOOK. [NOTE: that's not really a signature change. g++ needs the "void", however, to avoid a bug without -pedantic.] * ace/Process_Manager.cpp: Use the new ACE_OS::wait() method, which is portable to Win32, rather than ACE_OS::waitpid(). * tests/Process_Manager_Test.cpp: Completed the first major enhancement to the test that exercises the new ACE_Process_Manager features. This test builds and runs cleanly on Solaris using CC and should run on other versions of UNIX that support threads and processes. It would be great if someone could improve it to run on Win32, as well. * ace/Process_Manager: Added support for the spawn_n() method, which creates N new processes. * tests: Cleaned up the use of ACE_INIT_LOG/ACE_APPEND_LOG in Process_Manager_Test.cpp and Malloc_Test.cpp so we don't lose information. Both these tests now write their child processes' output to "-child.log". * ace/Thread_Manager.h: Added a default value of 0 to the exit() method since this is a common return status. * ace/config-win32-common.h: Added ACE_LACKS_GETPPID. * ace: Added a new wrapper for getppid(). For platforms that don't support this system call, please add ACE_LACKS_GETPPID. * tests: Moved the $ACE_ROOT/examples/Threads/process_manager.cpp example into the $ACE_ROOT/tests directory, renamed it to Process_Manager_Test.cpp, and revised the test to illustrate the new ACE_Process_Manager features. * tests/run_tests.lst: Added the Process_Manager_Test to the list of tests to run. * tests/Malloc_Test.cpp (main): Added some necessary ASYS_TEXT macros. * ace/Process.i: Rather than replicate the #ifdef logic in ACE_OS::kill() within ACE_Process:kill(), we just forward to ACE_OS::kill() and let it sort this out! * ace/Process: Moved several of the short wait() methods from the *.cpp file to the *.i file and inlined them. * ace/Process_Manager.cpp: The logic for the implementation of terminate() was incorrect, i.e., the process table entry should be removed *if* ACE::terminate_process() succeeds but *not* if it fails! * ace/OS.h: Added a new method called wait() that works portably on Win32 and UNIX/POSIX platforms. * ace/Process: Added an optional "options" parameter to the former "blocking" wait() method on ACE_Process. This allows clients to use the WNOHANG option to avoid blocking if the child process hasn't exited yet. Also changed the type of the return value to pid_t rather than int. Finally, added an optional status pointer to the "timed" wait() method (which only works on Win32). * ace/OS.h: On platforms that do not define WNOHANG natively, changed #ifdef of WNOHANG to 0100 (which can be used in bitmask comparisons) rather than Douglas Adams favorite constant: 42. Sat Aug 21 14:13:46 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * ACE version 5.0.2 released. Sat Aug 21 11:52:51 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * Makefile: Fixed small problem in the releaseall target. * bin/make_release: The shell did not like the embedded script to print the ChangeLog entry. Fri Aug 20 15:40:58 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Process_Manager: Added a new method called wait() that's just syntactic sugar for ACE_Process_Manager::reap(). Thanks to Dave Madden for suggesting this. * ace/OS: Added support for ACE_OS::atexit(), which necessitated changing the extern "C" signature for ACE_EXIT_HOOK to typedef void (*ACE_EXIT_HOOK) (void) so that this will be consistent with the signature expected by the ISO/ANSI C atexit() call. At the moment, ACE_OS::atexit just calls ::atexit() (unless a platform's config.h file #defines ACE_LACKS_ATEXIT). Ultimately, we might want to have this hook into the ACE_OS_Object_Manager's at_exit() support, which may be more portable and reliable. * ace/ACE_Process_Manager.h: Made the destructor virtual so it's possible to subclass from this class. * ace/Process_Manager.h: Updated the comments on the wait() method to indicate that a signal handler must be used to keep track of the number of remaining child processes. Thanks to Dave Binder for motivating this. Thu Aug 19 18:45:00 1999 Chris Gill * ace/Auto_Ptr.h: modified ACE_AUTO_PTR_RESET macro, to pass the type of the pointer. This is needed for the case where ACE_AUTO_PTR_LACKS_RESET is defined, in order to explicitly convert the pointer into an auto_ptr for assignment. Thu Aug 19 17:26:50 1999 John Heitmann * docs/ACE-SSL.html: Cleaned up the auto generated errors. Thu Aug 19 16:47:21 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ACE-INSTALL.html: Added a reference to $ACE_ROOT/docs/ACE-SLL.html. * docs: Added a new ACE-SSL.html file that explains how to participate in the ACE SSL project. Thanks to John Heitmann for adding this. Thu Aug 19 15:31:58 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/OS.h (ACE_OSTREAM_TYPE): Removed the redundant trailing * for the defintion when ACE_LACKS_IOSTREAM_TOTALLY is defined. Thu Aug 19 14:16:37 1999 David L. Levine * include/makeinclude/rules.nested.GNU: added ACE_NESTED_COMMAND hook. Users can set it to whatever they like (preferably in include/makeinclude/platform_macros.GNU). One example is to set it to: ACE_NESTED_COMMAND := || break $? to terminate building if a build in one subdirectory fails. Thanks to Lothar Werzinger for suggesting this addition. Thu Aug 19 13:06:00 1999 Michael Kircher * ace/Read_Buffer.cpp: Fixed a bug in rec_read () method which prohibited reading more than 1024 bytes at once. Thu Aug 19 13:03:07 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/ACE.h (ACE): Fixed a "cut & paste" error in the comment -- basename should have been dirname. Thanks to Mark Hyett for reporting this. * ace/ACE.cpp: Fixed a bug in ACE::dirname() that was causing problems if the pathname didn't have a delim character. Thanks to Russ Noseworthy for reporting this and providing a fix. Thu Aug 19 12:59:56 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * ace/Message_Block.i: Moved ACE_Message_Block::replace_data_block() down in the file because it was using inline functions that were defined after it was. Thanks to David for pointing this out. Thu Aug 19 10:53:50 1999 David L. Levine * ace/OS.i (setuid): added ACE_UNUSED_ARG (uid) for VxWorks, pSOS, WIN32, and Chorus. Thanks to Garry Brother for reporting this. Thu Aug 19 10:04:12 1999 David L. Levine * include/makeinclude/platform_vxworks5.x_g++.GNU: added trap to cause builds to fail if the exceptions flag is enabled. The VxWorks libraries don't support exceptions. And, exceptions give the (Tornado II) compiler fits, e.g., with ACE_wrappers/TAO/tao/IORManipulation.cpp. Thanks to Erik Johannes for this nifty preemptive solution, and to Nick Sawadsky for motivating its implementation. Thu Aug 19 09:34:41 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/WFMO_Reactor.h, * ace/WFMO_Reactor.cpp, * ace/Select_Reactor_T.h, * ace/Select_Reactor_T.cpp, * ace/Reactor_Impl.h, * ace/Reactor.h, * ace/Reactor.cpp: Added a pair of restart() methods that can be used to set/get the restart_ flag, which controls whether the handle_events() event loop is restarted automatically when select() is interrpted. Thanks to Erik Koerber for suggesting this. * ace/Service_Config: Updated the failure result comment for open() and cleaned up the return value and errno propagation for open_i() when process_commandline_directives() fails. Thanks to Jerry D. De Master for reporting the bug and suggesting a fix. * ace/Service_Config.h: Moved the process_directives() method used to parse the svc.conf files out of the protected part of the class to the public part so that application programmers can call this directly to reconfigure services from the svc.conf files. Thanks to John Mink for suggesting this. Wed Aug 18 22:45:24 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/WFMO_Reactor.h, * ace/WFMO_Reactor.cpp, * ace/XtReactor.h, * ace/XtReactor.cpp, * ace/TkReactor.h, * ace/TkReactor.cpp, * ace/FlReactor.h, * ace/FlReactor.cpp, * ace/Select_Reactor_T.h, * ace/Select_Reactor_T.cpp, * ace/Reactor_Impl.h, * ace/Reactor.h, * ace/Reactor.cpp: * ace/Timer_Hash_T.h: * ace/Timer_Heap_T.h: * ace/Timer_List_T.h: * ace/Timer_Queue_T.h: * ace/Timer_Wheel_T.h: * ace/Timer_Hash_T.cpp: * ace/Timer_Heap_T.cpp: * ace/Timer_List_T.cpp: * ace/Timer_Wheel_T.cpp: Changed all uses of const long to long... Wed Aug 18 22:15:58 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * tests/run_tests.sh: It was running the DISABLED tests, thanks to David for pointing this out. Wed Aug 18 21:48:52 1999 David L. Levine * ACE-INSTALL.html: added Toshio Hori suggestions (in a new section) on building just what's needed for TAO, and his tips for reducing disk space usage on Unix platforms. Wed Aug 18 21:32:56 1999 Ossama Othman * docs/usage-bugzilla.html: Added a simple document explaining basic usage of our installation of bugzilla. * ACE-INSTALL.html: * PROBLEM-REPORT-FORM: Updated with information about the bugzilla usage documentation. Wed Aug 18 20:28:23 1999 David L. Levine * bin/check_build_logs: check for just Stop, not [Ss]top, to avoid snagging top output. Gnu make says "Stop" when it can't find a dependency. Wed Aug 18 19:08:08 1999 David L. Levine * ace/OS.{h,cpp},Object_Manager.{h,cpp},Log_Msg.cpp: moved ACE_LOG_MSG_INSTANCE_LOCK from ACE_Object_Manager to ACE_OS_Object_Manager, so that Log_Msg.cpp needn't to depend on Object_Manager for it. Wed Aug 18 18:20:11 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * tests/SOCK_Send_Recv_Test.cpp: Fixed typo. Wed Aug 18 17:58:06 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * THANKS: * ace/README: * ace/config-irix6.x-common.h: Added new macro (ACE_HAS_BROKEN_DGRAM_SENDV) to handle platforms where using sendmsg with exactly IOV_MAX elements in the iovec fails (normally the number of elements can be up to and including IOV_MAX). Thanks to Tobin Bergen-Hill for tracking this down. Wed Aug 18 16:08:46 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * tests/SOCK_Send_Recv_Test.cpp: Reformatted this test so that it conforms to ACE programming guidelines. Wed Aug 18 13:49:30 1999 David L. Levine * ace/Makefile: if ACE_COMPONENTS = FOR_TAO, don't include Filecache in UTILS_FILES. TAO doesn't need Filecache. And, its ACE_Hash and ACE_Equal_To explicit template instantiations collide with those in ACE_wrappers/TAO/tao/POA.cpp. That precludes building a shared libTAO for VxWorks, for example. And, it costs 14 Kb. Thanks to Erik Johannes for helping to find this solution. And reminding me to implement it :-) Wed Aug 18 13:16:09 1999 David L. Levine * ACE-INSTALL.html: clarify that PERL_PATH must include the full path, including the perl.exe filename. Thanks to Walter Welzel for reporting this. Wed Aug 18 13:11:30 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * ace/OS.h: * ace/OS.i: The new methods to manipulate condition variable attributes were not compiling on single threaded platforms. Wed Aug 18 13:09:36 1999 David L. Levine * tests/Makefile: don't add libDLL_Test.$(SOEXT) to BUILD on VxWorks. Thanks to Walter Welzel for reporting that it did get build for VxWorks with shared libs enabled, but not successfully (or usefully). Wed Aug 18 10:36:16 1999 Nanbor Wang * ACE-INSTALL.html: Updated all references to MSVC 4.x. We no longer support the compiler. Thanks to Welzel Walter for pointing this out. Wed Aug 18 10:42:13 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Timer_List_T.cpp (reset_interval): Added a constcast to make SunC++ 4.2 happy. Thanks to Andy for reporting this. * ace/WFMO_Reactor.i (reset_timer_interval): The return type was incorrect... Thanks to Andy and Jeff for reporting this. Wed Aug 18 09:47:51 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * tests/run_tests.pl: The disabled tests were executed anyway, thanks to David for pointing this out. Wed Aug 18 09:34:46 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * ace/FlReactor.cpp: * ace/XtReactor.cpp: Fixed typos in the code, this is only used in a few platforms, that's why it didn't show up before. Tue Aug 17 20:02:55 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * tests/Reactor_Timer_Test.cpp: Enhanced this test to exercise the new reset_timer_interval() feature that Darrell added. It appears to work quite well. Also, make the test easier to understand by adding more structure. * ace/WFMO_Reactor.h, * ace/WFMO_Reactor.cpp, * ace/XtReactor.h, * ace/XtReactor.cpp, * ace/TkReactor.h, * ace/TkReactor.cpp, * ace/FlReactor.h, * ace/FlReactor.cpp, * ace/Select_Reactor_T.h, * ace/Select_Reactor_T.cpp, * ace/Reactor_Impl.h, * ace/Reactor.h, * ace/Reactor.cpp: Exposed the new reset_interval() method Darrell added to all the Timer mechanisms via a method in each of these Reactor's called reset_timer_interval(). * ace/Timer_Hash_T.h: * ace/Timer_Heap_T.h: * ace/Timer_List_T.h: * ace/Timer_Queue_T.h: * ace/Timer_Wheel_T.h: * ace/Timer_Hash_T.cpp: * ace/Timer_Heap_T.cpp: * ace/Timer_List_T.cpp: * ace/Timer_Wheel_T.cpp: Changed the return values of to be (1) consistent (i.e., to return a value through all paths in the method) and (2) to return -1 on failure and 0 on success. Also replaced a number of C-style casts with ACE_reinterpret_casts. Tue Aug 17 20:51:35 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * ace/TP_Reactor.h: * ace/TP_Reactor.cpp: The TP Reactor also experiences a performance hit if signal masking is enabled. Therefore, we can now make this optional. Tue Aug 17 19:10:00 1999 Darrell Brunsch * ace/OS.cpp: Fixed typo. * ace/Stats.cpp: Removed some warnings showing up in MSVC when assigning ACE_UINT64 values to ACE_UINT32 variables. Used ACE_U64_TO_U32 to remove these warnings. * ace/Timer_Hash_T.h: * ace/Timer_Heap_T.h: * ace/Timer_List_T.h: * ace/Timer_Queue_T.h: * ace/Timer_Wheel_T.h: * ace/Timer_Hash_T.cpp: * ace/Timer_Heap_T.cpp: * ace/Timer_List_T.cpp: * ace/Timer_Wheel_T.cpp: Added a new method, which can be used to change the interval of a timer represented by a timer_id. Tue Aug 17 18:43:53 1999 Jeff Parsons * ace/OS.h: * ace/OS.i: Added wscmp and wsncmp functions to go with the existing wslen and wscpy functions. These all use WChar*, so arg size is independent of platform. These are to be used for all manipulations of CORBA::WString. The two that were added were needed for wstring tests in Param_Test. WChar* versions of the other string manipulation functions will be added as needed. Tue Aug 17 17:49:33 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/config-sunos5.5.h: If (_LARGEFILE_SOURCE) || (_FILE_OFFSET_BITS==64) are enabled then #undef ACE_HAS_PROC_FS and ACE_HAS_PRUSAGE_T to work around problems with Solaris 7. Thanks to Sridhara Rao Dasu for reporting this. * ace/OS.i: Updated the readdir_r() conditional compilation so that it'll work when _FILE_OFFSET_BITS == 64. Thanks to Sridhara Rao Dasu for reporting this. Tue Aug 17 17:17:13 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * ace/OS.h: * ace/OS.i: * ace/OS.cpp: Added new data type to handle condition variable attributes (ACE_condattr_t). New methods to manipulate that data type (ACE_OS::cond_attr_init and destroy) Add new method to create a condition variable from a pre-initialized attribute. * ace/Synch.h: * ace/Synch.i: * ace/Synch.cpp: Added new wrapper for the ACE_condattr_t structure. * ace/Token.h: * ace/Token.cpp: Use ACE_Condition_Attributes to minimize the number of memory allocations and locks in the critical path of the TP_Reactor. Tue Aug 17 15:55:17 1999 Nanbor Wang * performance-tests/TCP/TCP.{dsw,dsp}: * performance-tests/TCP/Makefile: * performance-tests/TCP/tcp_test.cpp: Added the new test modified by Carlos and a bit further by me. The test measures TCP performance of a platform. We can also use it to test the performance of various reactors. Tue Aug 17 14:52:40 1999 Darrell Brunsch * ace/config-win32.h: Added ACE_CC_COMPILER definition for MSVC. ACE_CC_COMPILER is a string containing the compiler program. Tue Aug 17 13:48:27 CDT 1999 Loren Rittle * bin/update-ace+tao.sh: Use authoritative name list instead of ad hoc list to update file. Tue Aug 17 06:33:05 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Task.h: Clarified the comment regarding open() and close() on ACE_Task_Base. Thanks to Jeff Franks for suggesting this. Tue Aug 17 11:56:33 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * ace/Select_Reactor_T.h: * ace/Select_Reactor_T.cpp: Added option in the constructor to disable the signal handling features in the select reactor. This eliminates a couple of kernel level locks that are not needed in all applications. * ace/Stats.h: * ace/Stats.cpp: Now we keep track of the iteration where the minimum and maximum latencies were achieved. Tue Aug 17 06:33:05 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * bin: Added a new shell script called update-ace+tao.sh that updates the ACE/TAO source tree to the latest numeric-assigned version. Thanks to Loren Rittle for contributing this. Mon Aug 16 20:09:12 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * ace/CDR_Stream.h: * ace/CDR_Stream.i: * ace/CDR_Stream.cpp: Added new method to transfer the contents of one CDR stream into another. This is used in the implementation of the ORB to minimize the number of data copies, memory allocations and locks. * ace/Message_Block.h: * ace/Message_Block.i: Added new method to replace the Data_Block, this method returns the old one, letting the user decide how to deallocated the Data block, possibly transfering it to another Message_Block. Mon Aug 16 15:58:12 1999 Steve Huston * ace/config-sunos5.5.h: * include/makeinclude/platform_sunos5_sunc++.GNU: Added support for using "compat=4" mode for Sun CC 5. To use this, do "make compat4=1", or equivalent. Compat 4 uses -compat=4 with its old iostreams, but the newer Sun CC 5 scheme of explicit template instantiation. Mon Aug 16 11:59:18 1999 Vishal Kachroo * ace/SOCK_Dgram_Mcast.cpp (subscribe): Constructed and passed a complete sockaddr_in to the ACE_OS::join_leaf () call. This was just being passed sockaddr_in.sin_addr.s_addr. Sat Aug 14 18:01:27 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * tests/run_tests.pl: Fixed some output messages that were going to stdout. Sat Aug 14 15:20:27 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/SOCK_Dgram_Mcast.cpp (subscribe): It looks like there was a bug where we were passing an s_addr to ACE_OS::join_leaf() rather than a sockaddr *. Fixing this also cleaned up some code that was #ifdef'd for UNICOS. Thanks to Vishal for reporting this. * ace/Process.h: Added a virtual to ~ACE_Process so that it can be used for subclassing more readily. Thanks to Zoran Ivanovic for suggesting this. Sat Aug 14 14:11:25 1999 Everett Anderson * ace/Remote_Tokens.cpp (tryacquire): Fixed so that it uses ACE_Token_Request::TRY_ACQUIRE instead of RELEASE. Fri Aug 13 18:55:51 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Handle_Set.h (ACE_Handle_Set): Clarified the meaning of the nbits_ array. Thanks to Hao Ruan for motivating this. Fri Aug 13 21:18:40 1999 David L. Levine * ace/OS.i (llseek): on Linux, moved extern "C" llseek () declaration out of the function. Thanks to Tal Lev-Ami for this fix. Fri Aug 13 20:50:02 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/Select_Reactor_T.cpp (handle_events): Added a deactivation check for non-threaded case. The original check was mixed with thread owner check and thus got disabled under single-threaded configurations. Thanks to Kirthika for reporting the problem. Fri Aug 13 13:11:16 1999 David L. Levine * bin/make_release: moved ACE_wrappers/TAO addition to $release_files so that it's only done for the ACE+TAO kit. Fri Aug 13 12:44:08 1999 David L. Levine * Makefile,bin/make_release: added support (and documentation) for creating kits with or without new tags, or using an old tag; generated man pages; installation to the public ftp/http site on ace; and zip files. Fri Aug 13 07:58:12 1999 David L. Levine * ace/OS.{h,i},README,config-osf1-4.0.h (llseek): added ACE_HAS_LLSEEK support. Thanks to Tal Lev-Ami for providing this. Thu Aug 12 22:05:37 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/OS.i (sema_wait, rw_tryrdlock, rw_trywrlock): Replaced more ad hoc uses of the int error = 0; ... error = errno; ... errno = error; idiom with the ACE_Errno_Guard. * ace/Synch.h: Updated the comment to remind folks who would like to have a working ACE_Process_Condition to contact us if they know how to do this. Thanks to Craig Anderson for motivating this. * tests/Process_Strategy_Test.cpp (open): Clarified the behavior of the code that's run when fork() is used. Thanks to Umar Syyid for motivating this. Thu Aug 12 21:30:09 1999 Alexander Babu Arulanthu * include/makeinclude/platform_vxworks5.x_g++.GNU: added SIMNT support. Thu Aug 12 20:54:40 1999 David L. Levine * ace/config-osf1-4.0.h: added ACE_HAS_USING_KEYWORD for cxx and Rational compilers. [Bug 163] Thu Aug 12 20:47:13 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * tests/Cached_Accept_Conn_Test.cpp: Made the and variables global instead of static, because otherwise Sun/CC automatic template instantiation cannot find them at link time. The variables are used in template code that is defined and used in the same file, but Sun/CC does not seem to understand that. Thu Aug 12 17:14:35 1999 Jeff Parsons * ace/OS.h: Changed typedef of WChar to ACE_UINT16. The CDR operations are already using write_2, read_2 and SHORT_SIZE, and in the process of implementing wchars and wstrings in IDL, it's going to be important to optimize for the Unicode common case. Thu Aug 12 16:24:16 1999 David L. Levine * bin/make_release: chdir up a level before removing the staging directory. Thanks to Carlos for pointing out that it's necessary, because we had chdir'd into it. And for noticing that $build_commands got clobbered in create_kit (). Obey $generate_man_pages setting. Thu Aug 12 16:03:03 1999 David L. Levine * ACE version 5.0.1 released. Thu Aug 12 15:49:00 1999 David L. Levine * Makefile,bin/make_release: build kits in /tmp staging area, and copy to ace's ftp pub/ACE directory. Thu Aug 12 11:36:46 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * ace/OS.h: * ace/Svc_Handler.cpp: * ace/Future.cpp: Some platforms require arguments in the exception thrown from operator new. The standard (std::bad_alloc) does not require any. Added a new macro (ACE_throw_bad_alloc) that takes care of these differences, including platforms that don't throw exceptions but return something. Wed Aug 11 17:00:00 1999 Kirthika Parameswaran * tests/Cached_Accept_Conn_Test.cpp: Removed run_event_loop and end_event_loop and put in handle_events with a flag to stop the loop. This is a bug fix for Bug183. Wed Aug 11 15:49:37 1999 David L. Levine * docs/ACE-guidelines.html: cleaned up ACE doc tool discussion. Added Carlos' inlining heuristics. Wed Aug 11 13:53:20 1999 David L. Levine * ace/config-win32.h,config-win32-borland.h: added ACE_HAS_MUTABLE_KEYWORD. Thanks to Jody for this request. Wed Aug 11 13:15:26 1999 David L. Levine * ace/config-g++-common.h,config-win32.h,config-win32-borland.h: added ACE_HAS_EXPLICIT_KEYWORD (for egcs only, in config-g++-common.h). Thanks to Jody Hagins for this update. * ace/config-g++-common.h: added ACE_HAS_MUTABLE_KEYWORD. Wed Aug 11 13:10:32 1999 David L. Levine * ace/OS.h,README: added ACE_HAS_MUTABLE_KEYWORD support. Thanks to Jody Hagins for providing it. Wed Aug 11 12:55:23 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * ace/Svc_Handler.cpp: * ace/Future.cpp: The throw expressions require a constructor, not just the type, thanks to David for pointing this out. Wed Aug 11 10:12:11 1999 David L. Levine * ace/OS.h,Auto_Ptr.h,SString.h,README: added support for ACE_HAS_EXPLICIT_KEYWORD. Thanks to Jody Hagins for suggesting this. Wed Aug 11 10:07:36 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * ace/Future.cpp: * ace/Local_Tokens.cpp: * ace/Log_Msg.cpp: * ace/Log_Record.cpp: * ace/Svc_Handler.cpp: * netsvcs/lib/Token_Handler.cpp: Fixed several warnings and errors with gcc-2.95 * include/makeinclude/wrapper_macros.GNU: Add -fcheck-new to the command-line of g++ when compiling with exceptions disabled. In that case new operators could return 0 and without this option the constructor will surely be invoked on invalid data. * bin/auto_compile: Use LOGNAME instead of USER to get the username because it is more portable. Tue Aug 10 23:47:32 1999 Kirthika Parameswaran * ace/Cached_Connect_Strategy_T.h: * ace/Caching_Utility_T.h: * ace/Caching_Strategies_T.h: * ace/Cleanup_Strategies_T.h: * ace/Cache_Map_Manager_T.h: * ace/Hash_Cache_Map_Manager_T.h: Defined macros to shorten lengthy class names for linkers which couldnt grok long names (example: Sun Linker). Thanks to Dr.Schmidt for this cool idea. Tue Aug 10 19:07:32 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * tests/run_tests.sh: * tests/run_tests.pl: * tests/run_tests.lst: Move the list of tests to a separate file. This file is used to drive both a perl version of the script and the old shell version. The new perl version is able to terminate programs that hang, but still has problem with processes that fork children who then hang for some reason. The perl script has to be ported to Win32 too. * bin/run_all_list.pm: Use the new tests/run_tests.pl script on Unix. * bin/run_all.pl: Run all the test scripts in ACE and TAO, much like run_all_win32 but for unix systems. * bin/auto_compile: Remember to remove the disable file in case of errors. Tue Aug 10 18:08:30 1999 Jeff Parsons * ace/CDR_Stream.h: * ace/CDR_STream.i: Added all the necessary stuff for wstrings. Tue Aug 10 15:36:02 1999 David L. Levine * tests/Malloc_Test.cpp (main): removed unused argc declaration, with ACE_LACKS_FORK && ! ACE_HAS_WIN32. Tue Aug 10 15:26:43 1999 David L. Levine * ace/OS.cpp (strptime): removed unreachable break after return statement, in default case of switch statement. Tue Aug 10 14:46:12 1999 David L. Levine * ace/OS.{h,cpp},README: Changed support for ACE_OS::strptime () to be configurable. VxWorks, LynxOS, and Chorus, for example, don't have a native ::strptime (). The current emulation cost 2 Kb, which will be objectionable to some embedded systems developers. Replaced ACE_LACKS_STRPTIME with a combination ACE_HAS_STRPTIME/ACE_LACKS_NATIVE_STRPTIME. ACE_HAS_STRPTIME enables ACE_OS::strptime () support. ACE_LACKS_NATIVE_STRPTIME lets ACE know that there's no native ::strptime (), so it then uses its emulation. This has two advantages: it minimizes footprint in the default case, and doesn't break builds on platforms that don't have ::strptime (). It easily allows developers to configure ACE identically, with respect to strptime, on their Unix, NT, and embedded platforms. [Bug 219] * ace/config-sunos5.5.h,config-linux-common.h,config-osf1-4.0.h, config-irix6.x-common.h: added #define ACE_HAS_STRPTIME. [Bug 219] Tue Aug 10 12:28:54 1999 Jeff Parsons * bin/run_all_list.pm: Added IDL test to the list. Mon Aug 09 16:49:45 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/Process.{h,cpp} (wait): Re-visited the implementation so it behaves the same on both UNIX and Win32. Thanks to Doug for suggesting this. Mon Aug 09 16:30:24 1999 David L. Levine * docs/ACE-guidelines.html: added note to follow the ACE documentation tools guidelines and restrictions. Thanks to Doug for pointing this out. Mon Aug 09 16:06:01 1999 Nanbor Wang * include/makeinclude/wrapper_macros.GNU: Applied smart eg++ recognizer. Thanks to Craig Anderson for providing the patch. Mon Aug 9 11:29:36 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * bin: Fixed html-windex so that it works when class names contain the digit '3' in them, e.g., ACE_WIN32_Asynch_Accept, etc. Thanks to Jody Hagins for reporting this problem. Mon Aug 09 15:10:27 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/Process.h (wait): Rewrote comments. * ace/Service_Config.h (open): Revised the comments for several service_config flags. Thanks to Doug for pointing this out. Mon Aug 9 11:29:36 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * examples/Reactor/Misc/test_demuxing.cpp: Added a destructor to ~STDIN_Handler that will remove the event handler for STDIN and the registered timer. Mon Aug 9 10:45:24 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Memory_Pool.cpp (handle_signal): When working with an MMAP memory pool, a "real" segmentation fault (not related to updating the memory mapping) will cause the process to fail but not write a core file. This is because that on linux (and possibly other flavours of UNIX) core file writing is a default behaviour which is disabled once you register a signal handler. Even if the signal handler returns a bad return value which crashes the program, a core file will not be written. The fix for this is to modify the mmap() signal handler so that it de-registers the signal handler when detecting a segfault with the mapping up to date and return an "ok" answer. the program will attempt to access the illegal address again and dump core. Thanks to Joseph Weihs for contributing this fix. * ace/Signal: Changed the new handle_i() and register_handler_i() methods to be static member functions so they can be called from the static dispatch() member function. Thanks to Andreas Geisler for reporting this. Mon Aug 9 10:33:50 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * examples/ASX/CCM_App/SC_Server.cpp: Make sure to enable the appropriate parameter for ACE_Service_Config::open() so that static services will be enabled. Thanks to Michael Roth for reporting this. Mon Aug 09 10:21:37 1999 David L. Levine * include/makeinclude/wrapper_macros.GNU (INCLDIRS): removed "-I.". It's not necessary, because the preprocessor will first look for headers in the current directory, when appropriate. It causes trouble, for example, on NT for VxWorks with Green Hills. Instead of including the system's Signal.h, ACE's signal.h gets #included with "-I.". Thanks to Dale Wood for helping to track this down. [Bug 35] * include/makeinclude/platform_vxworks5.x_ghs.GNU: no longer need to override INCLDIRS, now that it doesn't contain "-I.". [Bug 35] Mon Aug 09 10:09:57 1999 David L. Levine * ace/OS.h,streams.h: moved ACE_OSTREAM_TYPE #define from streams.h to OS.h, so that it is seen with ACE_LACKS_IOSTREAM_TOTALLY. And, provide default value for ACE_DEFAULT_LOG_STREAM. [Bug 208] * ace/Log_Msg.cpp: changed a couple remaining ostream occurrences to ACE_OSTREAM_TYPE. Replaced conditional use of ACE_DEFAULT_LOG_STREAM/&cerr with ACE_DEFAULT_LOG_STREAM, now that it's always defined. [Bug 208] Mon Aug 09 09:47:06 1999 David L. Levine * ace/Log_Msg.{h,cpp}: replaced the ACE_Log_Msg_key_created_ and ACE_Log_Msg_key_ file static variables with static class members ACE_Log_Msg::key_created_ and ACE_Log_Msg::log_msg_tss_key_, respectively. Only declare ACE_Log_Msg::log_msg_tss_key_ if the platform supports TSS (native or emulated). Replaced the ACE_Log_Msg_message_queue file static variable with ACE_Log_Msg_Manager::message_queue_. Cleaned up Log_Msg.cpp. [Bug 86] Thanks to Umar Syyid for suggesting that we remove the file static variables. Mon Aug 09 09:33:43 1999 David L. Levine * ace/OS.h: #define ECOMM (to ECONNABORTED) if it's not already #defined. This allows support on NT. Thanks to Andy for reporting this. Mon Aug 9 07:45:19 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Signal.h: Modified the behavior of the ACE_Sig_Handler::dispatch() method so that on Win32 it'll automagically re-register the signal handler after the handler_signal() method returns with a non -1 value. Thanks to Andreas Geisler for suggesting this. * tests/Malloc_Test.cpp: Win32 didn't seem to like a 32k offset for the virtual address. Let's try 64k instead. Thanks to Nanbor for reporting this. * tests/Malloc_Test.cpp: Changed the sense of the conditional compilation test from && !defined (ACE_WIN32) to || defined (ACE_WIN32) so that this will run on Win32. Thanks to Nanbor for reporting this. * ace/OS.i: Cleaned up the coding style for the sigset* wrapper functions. Sun Aug 08 21:19:42 1999 David L. Levine * ace/config-osf1-4.0.h: removed unreferenced_function_param warning suppression. It's no longer needed with the fixes to avoid unreferenced function parameters. [Bug 217] Fri Aug 06 15:20:00 1999 Kirthika Parameswaran * ACE-INSTALL.html: added information about compilation on SunOS5.6 using egcs1.1.2. Fri Aug 06 13:47:51 1999 David L. Levine * ACE-INSTALL.html: added note about disabling optimization for some files with Tornado II. Fri Aug 06 13:39:48 1999 David L. Levine * ACE-INSTALL.html: updated VxWorks build information, specifically, the instructions for building on NT host. And, added information about linking libACE.so and libTAO.so into the VxWorks kernel. Thanks to Erik Johannes and Stephane Chatre for helping to clarify and verify. Fri Aug 06 12:10:19 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/config-win32-common.h: Added ACE_HAS_POSITION_INDEPENDENT_MALLOC. * ace/OS.cpp (strptime_getnum): getnum should be strptim_getnum. * ace/config-win32-common.h: Added ACE_LACKS_STRPTIME. Thanks to Andy for pointing this out. Fri Aug 06 11:13:27 1999 David L. Levine * ace/streams.h,OS.h,Log_Msg.h: with ACE_LACKS_IOSTREAM_TOTALLY, removed the hack that re-#defined ostream. Replaced that with an ACE_OSTREAM_TYPE macro. [Bug 208] Fri Aug 06 10:49:34 1999 David L. Levine * ACE-INSTALL.html: updated egcs versions that we use (1.1.1 and 1.1.2). Fri Aug 6 08:43:22 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * examples/Log_Msg/test_log_msg.cpp (main): Changed this test so that it no longer abort()s, but instead calls ACE_OS::_exit(). This should help avoid confusion when it's run. Thanks to Kevin Lyda for reporting this. This fixes [BUGID:211]. * ace/SOCK_Dgram_Mcast: The QoS-enabled subscribe() call must call the QoS-enabled open() call, rather than the "regular" open() call because otherwise QoS information isn't initialized! Thanks to Vishal for pointing this out. Fri Aug 06 08:22:00 1999 David L. Levine * ace/Object_Manager.cpp: with ACE_SHOULD_MALLOC_STATIC_OBJECT_LOCK, made the ACE_Static_Object_Lock_lock instance static, to match the non-ACE_SHOULD_MALLOC_STATIC_OBJECT_LOCK behavior. Thanks to Jody for this change. Also, consolidated the code to alway use the ACE_Static_Object_Lock_Type typedef. Fri Aug 06 06:55:49 1999 Jody Hagins * include/makeinclude/rules.local.GNU (depend.local): added ACE_DEPEND_SED_CMD hook, so that users can add sed scripts. An example is to use relative instead of absolute paths in dependencies. I put this into it to get the desired (site-specific) functionality: USER_DEPEND_SED_CMD=-e "s;$(PRISM_ROOT);\$$(PRISM_ROOT);g" Thu Aug 5 22:26:18 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/OS.h (ACE_OS): Added support for strptime() for platforms that lack it. Thanks to Kevin Lyda for contributing this. Note that if a platform fails to compile because it doesn't support this function, please enable ACE_LACKS_STRPTIME in the config.h file and send us email. Thu Aug 05 21:37:05 1999 David L. Levine * ace/Object_Manager.cpp (ACE_Static_Object_Lock_lock, ACE_Static_Object_Lock::instance, cleanup_lock): added support for ACE_SHOULD_MALLOC_STATIC_OBJECT_LOCK. It's not (currently) used by ACE. But, applications may find it useful for avoiding recursive calls if they have overridden operator new. Thanks to Jody Hagins for contributing it. Thu Aug 05 21:04:20 1999 David L. Levine * ace/streams.h: removed #includes of istream.h and ostream.h with ACE_HAS_STD_CPP_LIBRARY and ACE_USES_OLD_IOSTREAMS. Those headers aren't available with Sun CC. I think that they might be unnecessary with egcs for Tornado II. Thanks to Doug for reporting this. Ref. Thu Aug 05 14:31:48 1999 David L. Levine . Thu Aug 5 16:43:29 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * tests/Malloc_Test.cpp: Rearranged the #ifdefs so that we don't do much of anything if the platform doesn't support processes. Thanks to David Levine for reporting this. Thu Aug 5 16:27:15 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * include/makeinclude/rules.lib.GNU: * include/makeinclude/wrapper_macros.GNU: Added new macro (ACE_SHLIBS) to control the final link line of shared libraries. Use this macro to list the -l options required by your shared library that are *not* included in the system LIBS macro, for example "-lTAO -lACE"; the system will automagically change that to be "-lTAOshr -lACEshr" on AIX. This also decouples the shared library link line from the binaries, which use LDLIBS and ACELIB, allowing the application developers to easily mix shared libraries and binaries in the same directory, even if the binaries depend on the generated shared library. Thu Aug 05 15:44:39 1999 David L. Levine * include/makeinclude/platform_vxworks5.x_g++.GNU: on WIN32 host, assume that $(CC) is on the user's path (or is a full pathname). That way, we don't need to determine ACE_CC dynamically, which causes trouble with the WIN32 shell. Thanks to Erik Johannes for reporting this. [NOTE: this had been committed on a branch, but never on the main line.] Thu Aug 05 15:35:21 1999 Nanbor Wang * apps/gperf/src/gperf.dsp: * apps/gperf/src/gperf_lib.dsp: * ace/ace_lib.dsp: * ace/ace_dll.dsp: Changed the default configuration to Win32 Debug so if anyone doesn't know what he is doing, he'll most likely to success. Thu Aug 05 15:30:32 1999 David L. Levine * ace/streams.h: with ACE_LACKS_IOSTREAMS_TOTALLY, always #define ostream FILE *. [Bug 208] Thu Aug 05 15:13:01 1999 David L. Levine * ace/config-lynxos.h: added note on why we don't #define ACE_HAS_POSIX_SEM for LynxOS. [Bug 164] Thu Aug 05 14:53:44 1999 David L. Levine * ace/config-vxworks5.x.h: added support for the Diab compiler, version 4.2a or later. Compilation succeeds but links still have unresolved symbols related to new and delete. [Bug 207] * ace/OS.h,README: added support for ACE_LACKS_NEW_H. [Bug 207] * ace/OS.h: for VxWorks, use the ANSI prototypes for inet_ntoa.h, etc., for all VxWorks compilers, not just Green Hills. This allows compilation to succeed with Diab 4.2a. [Bug 207] Thanks to Erik Johannes for helping with this quick port to Diab 4.2a for VxWorks. Thu Aug 05 14:31:48 1999 David L. Levine * ace/iosfwd.h: #include iosfwd with ACE_HAS_MINIMUM_IOSTREAMH_INCLUSION as well as without ACE_HAS_OLD_IOSTREAMS. This allows builds to succeed for Tornado II with its egcs. [Bug 206] * ace/streams.h: added #includes of istream.h, ostream.h, and iomanip.h with ACE_HAS_STD_CPP_LIBRARY and ACE_USES_OLD_IOSTREAMS. It's necessary for builds for Tornado II, but should be harmless and helpful on other platforms. [Bug 206] Thanks to Matthias Schumann for first reporting the solution to the build problem for Tornado II. Thu Aug 5 13:03:28 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Malloc_T.cpp (shared_free): Looks like ACE_reinterpret_cast isn't the right thing to do... Let's just use good ol' fashioned C-style casts instead. Thanks to Bala for reporting this. Thu Aug 05 12:05:42 1999 David L. Levine * include/makeinclude/wrapper_macros.GNU: moved minimum_corba make flag support from wrapper_macros.GNU to TAO/rules.tao.GNU. Thanks to Bala for noticing this. [Bug 204] Thu Aug 05 12:01:14 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/Malloc_T.cpp (shared_free): Applied ACE_reinterpret_cast (ACE_Malloc_Header*, yadda) to serveral pointer comparisons. MSVC was complaining because the pointers are of different types. Thu Aug 5 11:57:23 1999 Balachandran Natarajan * include/makeinclude/wrapper_macros.GNU (YACC): Removed the definition of interface_repo a command line option with 'make' to $TAO_ROOT/rules.tao.GNU as per Dr.Levine's suggestions. Thu Aug 05 08:43:27 1999 David L. Levine * include/makeinclude/platform_vxworks5.x_diab.GNU: added. Thanks to Erik Johannes for helping to figure out its contents. Note that compiles succeed with Diab 4.2a for VxWorks, but links do not, yet. Thu Aug 05 08:37:09 1999 David L. Levine * ACE-INSTALL.html: added Kirk Davies' notes for running the ACE tests on Tornado II, without NFS installed. Thu Aug 5 00:15:45 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Based_Pointer_T: Changed the type of index for operator[] and operator+= to be int instead of long so that it'll work correctly when constant values are used. Thanks to Nanbor and KCC for pointing this out! Wed Aug 4 19:46:33 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * tests/run_tests.sh: Disabled the New_Fail_Test because it breaks other compilations. Wed Aug 4 15:56:51 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * tests/Malloc_Test.cpp: Make this test work even if ACE_HAS_POSITION_INDEPENDENT_MALLOC isn't set for a particular platform. * tests/Malloc_Test.h: Added a #include for "ace/Based_Pointer_T.h". Thanks to Carlos for pointing out the need for this. Wed Aug 4 17:07:12 1999 Balachandran Natarajan * include/makeinclude/wrapper_macros.GNU : Made the interface repository files to be compiled by default. If the user does not want these files to be compiled he can turn it off by issuing interface_repo=1 with the 'make' command. Wed Aug 4 15:56:51 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Task.h (ACE_Task_Base): Changed the parameter name to , which is more descriptive. Thanks to John Forest for motivating this. Wed Aug 4 15:54:51 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * netsvcs/clients/Naming/Client/Makefile: * netsvcs/clients/Naming/Dump_Restore/Makefile: If the libraries are specified as dependencies then they don't need to be listed in LDLIBS Wed Aug 4 13:20:54 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Malloc.h: Ok, let's try this again ;-). Removed the forward declarations and typedefs and replaced them with #defines. Hopefully, this will make all the compilers happy! Wed Aug 04 12:58:53 1999 Nanbor Wang * tests/*.dsp: Fixed Alpha configurations. Wed Aug 4 12:26:53 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * ace/Malloc.h: Added more forward declarations for the compilations that enabled PIM. Wed Aug 4 11:59:57 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * ace/Malloc.h: The previous fix did not work, i used forward declarations to make it work. Wed Aug 4 09:28:35 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * ace/Malloc.h: Replaced the use of typedefs for macros to define ACE_MALLOC_HEADER_PTR ACE, ACE_NAME_NODE_PTR, ACE_CHAR_PTR to try to avoid "incomplete type" messages from certain versions of G++. Macros are "later binding" than typedefs for this situation. * ace/Asynch_Acceptor.cpp (handle_accept): Fixed an expression that had incorrect parentheses. Thanks to David Digby for reporting this. Wed Aug 04 02:40:45 1999 Nanbor Wang * tests/run_tests.bat: * tests/tests.dsw: * tests/Malloc_Test.dsp: * tests/version_tests/Malloc_Test.dsp: Added project files for the Malloc_Test and added the test in run_test.bat. Tue Aug 3 22:39:34 1999 Douglas C. Schmidt * tests/{Makefile,run_tests.sh}: Added support for the new Malloc_Test. * tests/Malloc_Test.cpp: Added a new test that exercises the new position-independent ACE_Malloc with ACE_MMAP_Memory_Pool and ACE_Process_Mutex. * ace/Malloc_T: Added an accessor called mutex() to allow applications to acquire()/release() the lock used to provide mutual exclusion to an allocator. * tests/SV_Shared_Memory_Test.cpp: Reformatted this test to conform to ACE programming guidelines. * ace/Memory_Pool: The void * and char * arguments to the various ACE_*_Memory_Pool_Options constructors should be const; now they are! * examples/Shared_Malloc/test_position_independent_malloc.cpp (main): Added auto_ptr support to this test, as well. * examples/Shared_Malloc/test_multiple_mallocs.cpp: Enhanced this test so that it uses auto pointers and also now takes advantage of position-independent malloc, when possible. * examples/Shared_Malloc/test_position_independent_malloc.cpp: Finished integrating all the features of this test. It's pretty cool now! * examples/Shared_Malloc/Makefile: Updated the LSRC target so 'make depend' works correctly... * ace/Select_Reactor_Base.cpp (find): Don't set errno = ENOENT if we find a valid mapping of handle to Event_Handler. Thanks to Hao Ruan for reporting this. * ace/Based_Pointer_T: Added support for operator= (const ACE_Based_Pointer_Basic &). * ace/Based_Pointer_T: Added definitions for ACE_Based_Pointer::operator= and ACE_Based_Pointer_Basic::operator= to make EGCS happy. * ace/Malloc.h: Factored out the common code for ACE_Based_Pointer<> and the underlying types, thereby reducing the number of #ifdef's. * ace/Based_Pointer_T: Added an operator CONCRETE *() method * ace/Based_Pointer_Repository.cpp: The original implementation of this classes stored a pointer to the size of each mapped address, rather than just the value. This was causing problems when used for shared memory because the memory was allocated in one process and freed in another. This is now fixed by not storing a pointer, but by storing the value instead. Thanks to Nanbor for reporting this. Tue Aug 3 23:43:47 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * netsvcs/clients/Naming/Client/Makefile: * netsvcs/clients/Naming/Dump_Restore/Makefile: Fixed dependencies so parallel compilations (using the -j option) will work correctly. This fixes [BUGID:187] Tue Aug 3 23:23:18 1999 Kirthika Parameswaran * ace/Cached_Connect_Strategy_T.{h,cpp} (cleanup): Added a specialised method to prevent memory leaks with old versions of g++. This method calls the underlying iterator and does the cleanup. * ace/run_tests.sh: Removed purify check over Cached_Accept_Conn_Test and Cached_Conn_Test since they no longer leak memory when built using old version of g++. Tue Aug 3 22:23:18 1999 Balachandran Natarajan * include/makeinclude/wrapper_macros.GNU: Added an ifeq flag for the interface repository. Compiling with interface_repo=1 will compile the files for interface repository. Tue Aug 03 21:17:00 1999 Nanbor Wang * tests/SOCK_Connector_Test.cpp (host_is_up): Added a time out value of 5 second to spped up the test. Thanks to Jody Hagins for submitting the patch. Tue Aug 03 18:30:47 1999 Kirthika Parameswaran * ace/Strategies.h (ACE_Connection_Recycling_Strategy): Added a new pure virtual method which will provide a non-locking implementation of the method. * ace/Strategies_T.h (ACE_Cached_Connect_Strategy): * ace/Cached_Connect_Strategy_T.h (ACE_Cached_Connect_Strategy_Ex): Made public. * ace/Caching_Utility_T.{h,cpp} (ACE_Refcounted_Recyclable_Caching_Utility): Added this class which caters to purging of refcounted and recyclable handlers. * ace/Cleanup_Strategy_T.{h,cpp}: (ACE_Refcounted_Recyclable_Cleanup_Strategy): Added this class which caters to the cleanup of handlers which are refcounted and recyclable. Heres where the necessity of making the non-locking version of public arose in the first place. * ace/OS.h (ACE_Recyclable_State): Removed hardcoded values and left the enum values to the discretion of the compiler. Tue Aug 03 16:58:08 1999 Joe Hoffert * ace/ATM_Acceptor.{h,cpp}: * ace/ATM_Connector.{h,cpp}: * ace/ATM_Stream.{h,i,cpp}: * ace/ATM_Params.cpp: * ace/ATM_QoS.cpp: * ace/XTI_ATM_Mcast.{h,i,cpp}: Fixed inlining errors. Tue Aug 03 16:15:00 1999 Chris Gill * ace/Auto_Ptr.h: created ACE_AUTO_PTR_RESET macros, which depend on whether or not ACE_AUTO_PTR_LACKS_RESET is defined. * ace/config-kcc-common.h: defined ACE_AUTO_PTR_LACKS_RESET, because KCC native auto_ptr support is difficult to disable, and implements an older version of auto_ptr (without the reset method). Tue Aug 03 13:26:47 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/Service_Repository.cpp (instance): Check to see if the ACE_Object_Manager is being shutting down before creating a new instance of Service_Repository. Otherwise, we may be creating a new service repository just for shutting it down. Thanks to Doug for noticing this. * ace/Service_Config.cpp (fini_svcs): Since it is now possible for ACE_Service_Repository::instance to return 0 during program shutdown, we must check its value before using it. Notice that the change assumes people don't do stupid things like initializing the Service_Config during program shutdown. Mon Aug 2 23:21:01 1999 Carlos O'Ryan * bin/auto_compile: Added several flags to: disable test execution, specify the list of build directories on the command line, send email on successful compilation, keep a more detailed history, etc. Mon Aug 02 18:38:37 1999 Joe Hoffert * ace/ATM_Acceptor.{h,i,cpp} : * ace/ATM_Connector.{h,i,cpp} : * ace/ATM_Params.{h,i,cpp} : * ace/ATM_QoS.{h,i,cpp} : * ace/ATM_Stream.{h,i,cpp} : * ace/XTI_ATM_Mcast.{h,i,cpp} : * ace/ATM_Addr.{h,cpp}: * ace/Makefile: * ace/TLI_Connector.i: Added new ATM wrapper files to make the mechanism of sockets or XTI transparent when using the ATM protocol. Modified existing files to take advantage of these wrapper classes. * examples/IPC_SAP/ATM_SAP : * examples/IPC_SAP/ATM_SAP/CPP-client.cpp : * examples/IPC_SAP/ATM_SAP/CPP-server.cpp : * examples/IPC_SAP/ATM_SAP/Makefile : Added new test directory and programs to test ATM wrapper classes. * examples/IPC_SAP/TLI_SAP/CPP-ATM-client.cpp: Modified existing test program to utilize new ATM_QoS class. Mon Aug 02 17:24:05 1999 Nanbor Wang * ace/OS.h (ACE_DL_TYPE): Only WinCE uses wchar_t DL type, we'll just deal with this in ACE_OS::dlsym instead of defining different types here. * ace/OS.i (dlsym): GetProcAddress is defined differently on Windows CE and other Win32 platforms so we need to treat them differently. * ace/Malloc.h (ACE_Malloc_Header): Added a dummy member function to prevent egcs from complaining "all member functions are private." * ace/Based_Pointer_Repository.cpp: Fixed the use of map iterators. * examples/Shared_Malloc/test_position_independent_malloc.cpp (main): Delete the allocator before exiting from main. * ace/Malloc.h (ACE_Malloc_Header,ACE_Name_Node,ACE_Control_Block): Added an unimplemented assignment operator for this class. Otherwise, some compilers will try to use ACE_Based_Pointer_Base::operator= which is not implemented. Mon Aug 2 09:58:20 1999 Ossama Othman * netsvcs/lib/Name_Handler.cpp (init): * netsvcs/lib/Server_Logging_Handler_T.cpp (init): * netsvcs/lib/TS_Clerk_Handler.cpp (init): Changed cast to ACE_SignalHandler to allow it to compile under gcc 2.95. Thanks to Jeffrey Franks for reporting the problem. Sun Aug 1 15:58:39 1999 James CE Johnson * docs/tutorials/colorize: Added 
 wrapper around generated output.

          in Win32, the app must be executed once in server mode
          (argv[1] == 's') and again in client mode.

        * ace/Memory_Pool.cpp: If the base_addr is 0 for the
          ACE_MMAP_Memory_Pool_Options, then we will disable the
          "use_fixed_addr" option since it's going to cause big trouble to
          mmap() at location 0!  Plus, when 0 is used it's intended as an
          indication that the application wants the OS to choose the
          appropriate mapping.  This minor change in semantics works
          particularly well with the new
          ACE_HAS_POSITION_INDEPENDENT_MALLOC feature, because we can now
          let the OS choose the mapping location with out fear of begin
          mapped to a different location!

        * ace  /Memory_Pool.cpp: Conditionally include
          ace/Based_Pointer_Repository.h when
          ACE_HAS_POSITION_INDEPENDENT_MALLOC is defined.

        * ace/config-sunos5.5.h: Enabled the
          ACE_HAS_POSITION_INDEPENDENT_MALLOC macro by default.  Let's see
          whether this breaks lots of stuff ;-).

        * ace/OS.h: Moved the definition of ACE_IPPROTO_TCP down
          further in this file so that the IPPROTO_TCP macro would be
          defined.

        * ace/Based_Pointer_T.cpp: Removed an inappropriate use of
          ACE_INLINE in the *.cpp file.  Thanks to DEC UNIX C++ for
          reporting this!

        * examples/Shared_Malloc/Shared_Malloc.dsw
        * examples/Shared_Malloc/position_independent_malloc.dsp: Added
          this new project file for position independent malloc test.
