Sat Apr 18 13:59:55 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Naming_Context.h: removed trailing ';' at end of
          ACE_FACTORY_DECLARE.

        * ace/High_Res_Timer.cpp (reset): initialize by assignment with
          0 instead of using memset.  Thanks to Carlos for noticing this.

Sat Apr 18 01:14:30 1998  Irfan Pyarali  <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.cpp (start and stop): start and stop should only be done
          when ACE_Countdown_Time::max_wait_time_ is non-zero.

        * ace/Acceptor.cpp (open): Only set the reactor if calls to open()
          and register_handler() succeeds.

Fri Apr 17 21:00:21 1998  Steve Huston  <shuston@riverace.com>

        * ace/config-hpux11.h: Changes and comments around the
          ACE_DEFAULT_BASE_ADDR definition for 64-bit HP-UX 11.

        * ace/Naming_Context.cpp
        * ace/Malloc_T.cpp
        * ace/Memory_Pool.cpp: Hacks to work around bugs in HP-UX aC++ in
          64-bit mode on HP-UX 11.

        * ace/OS.i: Addition of a facility that allows config.h to specify
          additional flags for ACE_OS::mmap, above what's set by the caller.
          It's done using a new definition, ACE_OS_EXTRA_MMAP_FLAGS.
          This was added primarily to allow setting of the MAP_ADDR32 flag
          on HP-UX 11 if the ACE_DEFAULT_BASE_ADDR is set in the 32-bit range
          to allow 32-bit and 64-bit programs to map the same region.

Fri Apr 17 11:40:38 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.cpp (invoke): Should check against null thr_desc, not
          thr_desc->flag ().  Thanks to "Erickson, Jack (CICG - NY GFX)"
          <JErickson@exchange.ml.com> for reporting this.

        * ace/OS.h (ACE_Service_Object_Exterminator): Typedef of ACE
          factory cleanup funciton.
          (ACE_FACTORY_{DECLARE,DEFINE}): Added an extra argument to pass
          back destructor for the object created by the factory.  Changed
          the ACE_FACTORY_DEFINE to generate this destructor function to
          pair with factory function so that we can deallocate the object
          in the same heap it was created.
          (ACE_SVC_INVOKE): This will now pass in 0, which means we don't
          want to use the destructor function.

        * ace/Parse_Node.{h,cpp} (symbol): Added an extra argument to get
          back the destructor function from ACE_FACTORY.  Only
          Function_Node actually uses it.
          (ACE_Function_Node::symbol): Initialize the Service_Object with
          added destructor function ptr so it will get destructed in the
          "right place".

        * ace/Service_Config.{h,cpp} (load_static_svcs): Invoke the
          factory method with added argument to get back the destructor
          function and then, pass it in to ace_create_service_type
          function.
          (ACE_Service_Manager): Changed to use the more generic
          ACE_FACTORY_DEFINE than using ACE_SVC_FACTORY_DEFINE.
          (ACE_SERVICE_ALLOCATOR): Must match with signature of the
          new factory method.

        * ace/Service_Type.{h,cpp}
          (ACE_Service_Object_Type,ACE_Service_Type_Impl): Keep the
          destruction function in these object, if use provides one, then
          use it to destruct the object, otherwise, just use delete.

        * ace/Naming_Context.{h,cpp}: Changed to use
          ACE_FACTORY_{DEFINE,DECLARE}.

        * ace/Object_Manager.cpp: Changed the signature of
          Service_Manager.

        * ace/Svc_Conf.h: Changed the signature of
          ace_create_service_type.

        * ace/Svc_Conf_y.cpp:
        * ace/Svc_Conf.y: Try to get the destruction function from
          factories in svc_location.
          (ace_create_service_type): Pass in the destruction function if
          provided one.

Fri Apr 17 08:31:38 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Signal.cpp (dispatch): Fixed a typo.  Thanks for David
          Levine's help pointing this out.

Thu Apr 16 21:12:48 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Signal.cpp: There was a major portability violation in the
          ACE_Sig_Handler::dispatch() method, which was previously
          acquiring a mutex lock.  This is NOT permitted in the POSIX
          signal handler spec.  In addition, the implementation had other
          nasty consequences related to dynamic allocation of memory in
          the signal handler, which has a bad habit of breaking
          non-reentrant uses of "new".  The consequence of all this is
          that you really shouldn't be modifying signal handlers via the
          Reactor in multiple threads of control.  In general, threads and
          signals are just plain evil, so they are best addressed via
          sigwait() anyhow...

          Thanks to Sumedh and Naga for first tracking this down.

Thu Apr 16 20:51:42 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/config-linux-pthread.h: added ACE_HAS_THREADS.
          ace/config-irix6.x-g++.h: added ACE_HAS_THREADS and ACE_MT_SAFE.
          Thanks to Dave Tallman <tallman@acsys.com> for reporting these.

Wed Apr 15 23:01:08 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Thread_Manager.cpp (exit): Don't delete the ACE_Thread_Exit
          object of the thread here.  ACE_Thread_Manager::exit will be
          called back again when performing TSS cleanup.  Thanks to Dave
          Tallman <tallman@acsys.com> for the bug report.

Wed Apr 15 17:12:14 1998  Steve Huston  <shuston@riverace.com>

        * ace/config-hpux-11.x-hpc++.h: Explicitly set ACE_SIZEOF_LONG based
          on compiler switch for processor/memory model.

Wed Apr 15 16:25:38 1998  Irfan Pyarali  <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/WFMO_Reactor.cpp (handle_signal): Changed break to return 0.

        * ace/OS.cpp (uname): We have to make sure that the size of
          (processor + subtype) is not greater than the size of
          name->machine.  So we give half the space to the processor and
          half the space to subtype.  The -1 is necessary for because of
          the space between processor and subtype in the machine name.

          Thanks to Andrew Marchewka
          (Andrew_Marchewka@SRT.CCMAIL.compuserve.com) for suggesting
          these changes.

Wed Apr 15 08:52:52 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/Reactor_Exceptions_Test (handle_input): removed
          ACE_NOTREACHED wrapper around return statement at end.
          Now that the previous statement is a function call, the
          compiler (cxx) doesn't detect that the statement can't
          be reached.

Wed Apr 15 01:03:42 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.i (ACE_SOCKCALL_RETURN): Added a work-around for a
          Borland 5.02 compiler bug.  The key turns out to be the
          throw-away intermediate assignment statement to correctly keep
          the value of WSAGetLastError().  Thanks to Dave Tallman
          <tallman@acsys.com> for reporting this.

Tue Apr 14 23:35:19 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Profile_Timer.cpp (elapsed_rusage): The differences of user
          time and system time for GETRUSAGE were not calculated.

        * performance-tests/Synch-Benchmarks/Options.cpp (print_results):
          Added dump code for ACE_HAS_GETRUSAGE.

        * ace/ace_{dll,lib}.dsp: Removed Service_Main.cpp from the
          projects.  We don't really need them in ACE DLL.

        * ace/Service_Main.cpp: Removed the file from CVS.  Lots of
          Service_Config examples can be found all round ACE directories
          so we really don't need it here anymore.

Tue Apr 14 20:30:53 1998  Steve Huston  <shuston@riverace.com>

        * ace/OS.i (mutex_init, cond_init): Added sections to properly
          handle error conditions on platforms which claim
          ACE_HAS_PTHREADS_1003_DOT_1C.

Tue Apr 14 16:39:42 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/ACE.cpp (ldfind): Fixed a miscalculated string size.
          Thanks to Jason Katz <Jason@rtswireless.com> for reporting the
          bug.

Tue Apr 14 14:33:33 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/Thread_Manager_Test.cpp (main): don't try to suspend/resume
          DCE threads, because they don't support it.  Added a start barrier,
          to ensure that worker threads set up their signal handlers before
          the main thread tries to signal them.  Drop DEFAULT_ITERATIONS from
          100000 to 10000 because 100000 takes a long time on a 200 MHz
          Pentium.

Tue Apr 14 12:59:04 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/Hash_Map_Manager_Test.cpp: Changed the consts to
          size_t, as well...

Tue Apr 14 11:40:23 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/Hash_Map_Manager.cpp: made type, size_t, of String_Table_size
          explicit, instead of using the default type of int.

Tue Apr 14 10:10:46 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.4.41 released.

Tue Apr 14 07:19:25 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * bin/make_release (create_kit): ACE+TAO instead of ACE_TAO.
          Thanks to Doug for reporting this.

        * ace/OS.h (ACE_Thread_Adapter): added friend class declaration
          to avoid g++ warning:  only defines a private destructor and
          has no friends.

        * ace/OS.cpp (ACE_Thread_Adapter::invoke): only declare local
          thr_desc if ACE_HAS_WIN32 and ACE_HAS_MFC.

Tue Apr 14 00:46:05 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.4.40 released.

Mon Apr 13 19:19:13 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS: Made the destructor of ACE_Thread_Adapter private to
          keep people like Russ from abusing this class... ;-)

        * ace/OS.cpp (invoke): We were incorrectly deleting this and then
          using one of its fields!  Thanks to the ever-vigilant Russ
          Noseworthy <rnosewor@objectsciences.com> for reporting this.

        * ace/Log_Record.cpp (print): Added VERBOSE_LITE support to the
          code so we don't spew out quite so much information.

        * ace/Log_Msg.cpp (log): Replaced all calls to
          ACE_Log_Record::print() so that they pass the
          ACE_Log_Msg::flags_ parameter.

        * ace/Log_Record.h: Changed the 'int verbose' parameter to 'u_long
          verbose_flag' parameter so that we can pass in the
          ACE_Log_Msg::flags_ and check to see what they are enabled with!

        * tests/test_config.h: Changed VERBOSE to VERBOSE_LITE so we don't
          have quite so much junk printed out for the tests!

        * ace/Log_{Priority,Record}: Added a new flag called VERBOSE_LITE
          that isn't quite as verbose as VERBOSE (it only prints things
          that can change between calls to the ACE_Log_Msg::log() method).
          In addition, also changed the ACE_Log_Record::print() method so
          it prints the string format for the ACE_Log_Priority types.
          This is a lot more legible than printing the numbers.

        * ace: Removed all uses of ACE_HAS_WILDCARD_BIND.  This is now the
          default behavior.  If there's some weird platform that DOESN'T
          have this behavior, we'll deal with that by setting the
          ACE_LACKS_WILDCARD_BIND flag.

        * ace/OS.cpp (invoke): Removed the (void *) cast on delete this.
          It wasn't necessary.  Thanks to Steve Huston and David Levine
          for reporting this.

Mon Apr 13 19:12:49 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/DEV_Connector.i (ACE_DEV_Connector):
        * ace/Asynch_IO.cpp (accept,addresses): UNICODE changes.

Mon Apr 13 18:05:26 1998  Steve Huston  <shuston@riverace.com>

        * tests/Thread_Manager_Test.cpp: Disabled the suspend/resume action
          for Pthreads platforms.

Mon Apr 13 10:18:59 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/High_Res_Timer.i (hrtime_to_tv): in tv.usec calculation,
          moved the cast to long to after the division by global_scale_factor_.
          This is necessary for compatibility with ACE_U_LongLong.

        * bin/make_release (get_versions): use $KIT instead of hard-coded
          ACE, so that it works with TAO.  (tag): translate dots to
          underscores, because CVS doesn't allow dots in tags.  Thanks to
          Doug and Hans Rohnert <rohnert@scr.siemens.com> for reporting these.

Sun Apr 12 21:11:53 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.h: Prevent using ACE_HAS_MOSTLY_UNICODE_APIS without UNICODE.

        * ace/OS.cpp (thr_create):
        * ace/Thread_Manager.cpp (spawn_i): Removed directive
          ACE_NO_THREAD_ADAPTER and its related code.

Sat Apr 11 22:20:51 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/Thread_Manager_Test.cpp (main): Don't check execute result
          of kill_grp statement if we are running on Win32 platforms.
          thr_kill is not supported there.

Sat Apr 11 20:00:12 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.4.39, released Sat Apr 11 20:00:12 1998.

Sat Apr 11 19:58:56 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * Nanbor removed a bunch of *.MAK files, which were quite large
          and taking up lots of space.

Sat Apr 11 18:58:24 1998  Steve Huston  <shuston@riverace.com>

        * ace/INET_Addr.cpp: Fixed missing paren.

        * netsvcs/servers/servers4.mdp: Added ..\lib to include directories
          for Release build.

Sat Apr 11 13:28:19 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.4.38, released Sat Apr 11 13:28:19 1998.

Sat Apr 11 12:46:08 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/config-mvs.h: Added some ACE_SIZEOF_* macros for MVS.
          Thanks to Chuck Gehr <gehr@sweng.stortek.com> for reporting
          this.

        * ace/INET_Addr.cpp: Added a newline and a better explanation of
          what went wrong if an error occurs.  Thanks to Luca for
          reporting this.

Fri Apr 10 02:42:35 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Log_Msg.{h,cpp} (log_hexdump):
        * ace/ACE.{h,cpp} (format_hexdump): The buffer to be hex-dumped should
          always be of type (const char *) no matter we have UNICODE
          system strings or not.

        * ace/OS.{h,cpp} (ACE_CE_Bridge): This new class bridges
          a text-based ACE programs with a default window that prints out
          the default ACE_Log_Msg output.

          CE always uses non-static object manager and we replace the
          original main function with a well know entry that the main
          window program can call back from to invoke the ACE program in a
          separate thread.

        * ace/Log_Record.{h,cpp}: Added support for passing strings as
          windows messages.

        * ace/Log_Msg.cpp (log): Specialized CE support.

        * windoezCE: The template windows program that receives ACE
          messages.  See CE-Status or README file for more info.

Fri Apr 10 00:41:23 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/Reactor_Exception_Test: Tidied the test up a bit.  Thanks
          to Bob Laferriere <laferrie@gsao.med.ge.com> for suggesting
          this.

        * tests/test_config.h: Enabled ACE_Log_Msg::VERBOSE since it gives
          more information that can be useful for debugging.

Fri Apr 10 00:04:03 1998  Irfan Pyarali  <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Proactor.cpp (post_completion): Added a new method to the
          Proactor. It can be used to post a result to the completion port
          of the Proactor.  If errors occur, the result will be deleted by
          this method.  If successful, the result will be deleted by the
          Proactor when the result is removed from the completion port.
          Therefore, the result should have been dynamically allocated and
          should be orphaned by the user once this method is called.

          Changed the timer mechanism to use this new method rather than
          posting to the completion port directly.

          Thanks to Jason Katz <Jason@rtswireless.com> for the
          improvements.

Thu Apr  9 17:31:47 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * Updated all the Makefile dependencies and also added the
          appropriate CVS strings to all Makefiles.

        * examples/IPC_SAP/SOCK_SAP: Improved both the CPP-unserver.cpp
          and CPP-inserver.cpp programs so they work identically wrt
          concurrency and logic.

        * ace/LSOCK_Stream.cpp: Fixed the get_remote_addr() and
          get_local_addr() methods to work correctly.  Apparently,
          getpeername() doesn't work appropriately for UNIX domain
          sockets, so we simply have both methods call getsockname().
          Thanks to Chuck Gehr for pointing out this problem.

        * ace/FILE_IO.cpp (get_local_addr): The RHS has an additional
          field that is the FILE name, which did not get copied.  Added an
          ACE_dynamic_cast() to do the right thing here.  Thanks to Ganesh
          Pai for reporting this.

        * ace/Malloc*: Factored out all the code in ACE_Static_Allocator
          into a new non-templatized base class called
          ACE_Static_Base_Allocator so that we don't trigger multiply
          defined symbols when we use this in TAO.  Thanks to Carlos for
          this very insightful trick!

        * tests/Thread_Manager_Test.cpp (main): Added ACE_ASSERT
          statements so that we bailout if things go awry.  Thanks to
          Robert J.  Laferriere <laferrie@gsao.med.ge.com> for reporting
          this.

Thu Apr 09 18:06:53 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/High_Res_Timer.i (hrtime_to_tv): Cast the parameter for usec
          to long.  It can be fixed because of Darrell's vigilance.

Thu Apr 09 17:55:21 1998  Steve Huston  <shuston@riverace.com>

        * ace/config-hpux-10.x.h, config-hpux11.h, config-aix-4.2.x.h:
          Added ACE_HAS_WILDCARD_BIND.

Thu Apr 09 16:43:26 1998  Irfan Pyarali  <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/ACE.*: Changed *_version() functions to be non-inlined.
          After this change, inclusion of ace/Version.h can be moved into
          ACE.cpp.  This change helps as all of ACE doesn't have to be
          compiled after Version.h changes (Version.h changes every time a
          new beta is produced).

Thu Apr  9 12:27:23 1998  Carlos O'Ryan  <coryan@swarm.cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/Hash_Map_Manager_Test.cpp: POOL_SIZE was simple "const
          POOL_SIZE" I changed that to "const int POOL_SIZE".  Added
          missing template instantiation for Static_Allocator.

Thu Apr 09 10:50:18 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/WFMO_Reactor.cpp (dump): Fixed signed/unsigned mismatched
          warnings on NT. Thanks to Darrell for noticing the bug.

Thu Apr  9 09:37:08 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Malloc_T: Moved the ACE_Static_Allocator::dump() method into
          the Malloc_T.cpp file so we'd get a vtable...  Thanks to David
          Levine for reporting this.

        * tests/Hash_Map_Manager_Test.cpp (run_test): Added a return
          value to make G++ and David Levine happy ;-).

Thu Apr 09 10:50:18 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/WFMO_Reactor.cpp (dump): Fixed signed/unsigned mismatched
          warnings on NT. Thanks to Darrell for noticing the bug.

Wed Apr 08 17:29:01 1998  Irfan Pyarali  <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/SOCK_Acceptor.cpp (open): There was a boo-boo in open() as
          we were only calling bind_port() and ignoring the port supplied
          by the user. Call bind_port only if port == 0.

Wed Apr  8 01:09:52 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Malloc_T: Added a new ACE_Static_Allocator class, which is
          highly optimized for allocations where (1) all the memory size
          is known in advance and (2) no deletions are done.  This class
          will ultimately be used in TAO to improve it's startup
          performance for operation tables initialization.

        * tests/Hash_Map_Manager_Test.cpp: Enhanced the test so that it
          uses the new ACE_Static_Allocator feature.

        * ace/OS: Added support for the rename() method.  Thanks to Ganesh
          Pai for suggesting this.

        * ace/config-win32-common.h,
              config-sunos*.h:
              config-irix-6*.h:
          Enable the ACE_HAS_WILDCARD_BIND macro.

        * ace/ACE.cpp: Modified the bind_port() method so that it is more
          efficient on platforms that interpret a 0 port to bind() as a
          request for the kernel to select the port.  Thanks to Chris
          Cleeland for pointing this out.

        * ace/Hash_Map_Manager: Made a bunch of minor changes to fix some
          subtle deadlocks with intra-class locking.

        * tests/Map_Manager_Test.cpp: Restructured the tests so that we
          don't keep recomputing end() and rend() of the map in each loop
          iteration!

Wed Apr 08 10:02:16 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * bin/make_release: added this script that creates ACE and/or
          TAO releases.

        * Makefile: added support for make_release.  See comments at
          the top of the Makefile.  The old release mechanism has
          been retained; to use it:  make release-old or
          make releaseall-old.

Wed Apr 08 00:37:33 1998  Irfan Pyarali  <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/ACE.cpp (bind_port): This call was not flexible enough as it
          always assumed that the user wanted INADDR_ANY.  Added an extra
          parameter to this function where the user can pass in the addr
          that she is interested in.  This extra parameter defaults to
          INADDR_ANY, so no existing should break.

        * ace/SOCK_Acceptor.cpp (open): Not enough information was being
          passed to the new ACE::bind_port() call.  Changed open() so that
          the sin_addr part of the address is passed along to
          ACE::bind_port().

Tue Apr 07 15:25:08 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/config-irix*.h: fixed determination of ACE_SIZEOF_LONG_DOUBLE,
          depending on system release and ABI.  Thanks to Robert J.
          Laferriere <laferrie@gsao.med.ge.com> for figuring it all out.

Mon Apr 06 01:29:35 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/ace_ce_dll.dsp: Update project files.  Rearrange dll filenames a
          bit so that it's eaier to have various ACE libraries for various
          CE supported CPUs.  Files for every supported CPU are generated
          under CPU specific directory as follow:

          CPU             Directory       Name
          Sh3 series      ace/WCE/SH      aced.{lib,dll} ace.{lib,dll}
          MIPS series     ace/WCE/MIPS    aced.{lib,dll} ace.{lib,dll}
          x86 emulation   ace/WCE/x86em   aced.{lib,dll} ace.{lib,dll}

        * ace/config-win32-common.h: Prevent CE from using wsock32.lib.

Sun Apr 05 16:44:31 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.h (ASYS_ONLY_MULTIBYTE_STRING): New macro.  Used to
          activate wchar string to char string conversion only under CE,
          under other cases, the argument to this macro is treated as
          a regular char string.

        * ace/INET_Addr.cpp (set): Changed to use
          ASYS_ONLY_MULTIBYTE_STRING.  This has gotten out of control
          now.  I need to think of a better name for these macros.

Tue Apr 07 09:30:28 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * include/makeinclude/platform_lynxos.GNU: set up PATH when
          cross-compiling.  With this change, users don't need to
          do anything special to their platform_macros.GNU or
          environment to cross-compile for LynxOS (assuming that
          the default platform_lynxos.GNU configuration is suitable).

Mon Apr 06 16:28:32 1998  Steve Huston  <shuston@riverace.com>

        * examples/Service_Configurator/IPC-tests/server/svc.conf: Corrected
          library name to load tests from.  Thanks to Sandro Doro
          <XDS@necsy.it> for noticing there was a problem here.

Sun Apr 05 10:20:26 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * include/makeinclude/platform_lynxos.GNU: only define
          CROSS-COMPILE if not building on LynxOS.

        * ace/OS.h: fixed ACE_CAST_CONST definition with Sun CC.

Sun Apr 05 00:20:52 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/ACE.h: Moved "#include "ace/OS.h" out of _ACE_H_ block to
          resolve the circular inclusion that occured when building ACE
          Unicode Release version.

Sat Apr 04 21:19:32 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.4.37, released Sat Apr 04 21:19:32 1998.

Sat Apr 04 19:41:03 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.cpp (thr_exit): Forgot to access creation flags thru
          the access function.

Sat Apr 04 14:01:53 1998  Steve Huston  <shuston@riverace.com>

        * performance-tests/Makefile: Put UDP back in dir list.

Sat Apr 04 07:45:33 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Basic_Types.h,config-sunos4*.h,README: don't use
          u_longlong_t on Suns if ACE_LACKS_U_LONGLONG_T is defined.
          Define ACE_LACKS_U_LONGLONG_T in all SunOS4 config files.
          Thanks to John Lindal <jafl@cco.caltech.edu> for reporting
          this.

Sat Apr  4 02:06:57 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.cpp (invoke,thr_exit): (*Win32*) We also need to consider
          threads that are not spawned by ACE_Thread_Manager by checking
          the validity of cached ACE_Thread_Descriptor.  In any rate,
          please avoid using thread functions in ACE_Thread::* and
          ACE_OS::thr_* directly.

Sat Apr  4 01:03:17 1998  Alexander Babu Arulanthu  <alex@merengue.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Map_Manager.cpp (map): Added map method for the iterator interface.

Sat Apr  4 00:55:30 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * netsvcs/clients/Naming/{Client,Dump_Restore}/Makefile:
          Moved all program source names to PSRC, not SRC, for
          'make depend'.

Fri Apr  3 21:18:51 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.cpp (cleanup): Moved ACE_Cleanup::cleanup() back into the
          *.cpp file so that we have at least one non-inline virtual
          function.

        * ace/OS (cleanup): Created a dummy ACE_Cleanup constructor since
          the lack of this may be causing a bug with CC and the linker for
          TAO's IDL compiler.  Also moved the constructor and destructor of
          ACE_Cleanup into the OS.i file and made them inline.  We'll fix
          this bug yet!!!!

Fri Apr 03 18:45:35 1998  Steve Huston  <shuston@riverace.com>

        * apps/JAWS/clients/Blobby/Makefile
        * apps/JAWS/clients/Caching/Makefile
        * examples/ASX/Event_Server/Event_Server/Makefile
        * examples/ASX/UPIPE_Event_Server/Makefile
        * examples/Logger/simple-server/Makefile
        * examples/Mem_Map/IO-tests/Makefile
        * examples/Reactor/Multicast/Makefile
        * examples/Service_Configurator/Misc/Makefile
        * examples/Shared_Malloc/Makefile
        * performance-tests/Synch-Benchmarks/Makefile
              Adjusted for corresponding changes to rules.bin.GNU and/or
              rules.lib.GNU, below.

        * examples/Connection/non_blocking/Makefile
        * examples/Service_Configurator/IPC-tests/server/Makefile
        * examples/Timer_Queue/Makefile
        * performance-tests/Misc/Makefile
              Moved all program source names to PSRC, not SRC, for
              'make depend'.

        * performance-tests/Makefile: Removed UDP from list of dirs to build.

        * include/makeinclude/rules.bin.GNU: Set OBJEXT and VOBJS from the
          SRC files in the Makefile (LSRC sets VLOBJS in rules.lib.GNU;
          SRC sets VOBJS in rules.bin.GNU).

        * include/makeinclude/rules.local.GNU: depend rule will also operate
          on $(PSRC) in addition to $(SRC).  PSRC is new - if you have more
          than one program to build in a makefile, set PSRC to the source
          files for make depend.

        * include/makeinclude/rules.lib.GNU: Use VLOBJS for archive lib object
          files; using VOBJS gets it confused with VOBJS in rules.bin.GNU and
          makes it very difficult to build lib and exe from same Makefile.

Fri Apr  3 10:40:10 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.cpp (invoke): We were using AfxGetThread to determine
          whether a thread was created with AfxBeginThread or
          _beginthreadex.  This seemed to cause some subtle problem with
          MSVC 4.2.  Since we always cached the Thread_Descriptor in TSS
          now, we can just check how a thread was created and use the
          appropriate thread exiting method.  Thanks to Detlef Becker
          <Becker.Detlef@med.siemens.de> for tracing down this obscure
          bug.

        * ace/Thread_Manager.{h,i} (flags): Added this new access function
          into ACE_Thread_Descriptor to get the creation flags for a
          thread.

Fri Apr 03 10:01:32 1998  Steve Huston  <shuston@riverace.com>

        * ace/ACE.cpp (handle_timed_complete): On AIX, always check a
          completed non-blocking connect() because AIX sets only the write
          handle from select regardless of whether the connect succeeded
          or not.

        * netsvcs/clients/Naming/Dump_Restore/Dump_Restore.cpp: Removed
          the #include <fstream.h> - this is taken care of via ace/OS.h.
          Having the #include in Dump_Restore.cpp caused some very weird
          compile errors on DG/UX.

        * netsvcs/lib/Server_Logging_Handler.cpp: Fixed template instantiations
          for Base_Optimizer, non-static logging cases.

Fri Apr 03 09:16:24 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.cpp (ACE_TSS_Info::key_in_use): return true if
          thread_count_ > 0, not if it is != -1.  Thanks to Chris
          Lahey <CLahey@cccis.com> for finding and reporting this.

        * ace/OS.i (thr_yield): on VxWorks, changed argument of
          ::taskDelay () from 0 to 1.  With an argument of 0,
          ::taskDelay () doesn't appear to yield the current thread.

        * tests/run_tests.vxworks: Reactor_Notify_Test is OK on
          VxWorks now.

        * ace/OS.h,config-sunos5.5-sunc++-4.x.h: added ACE_CAST_CONST,
          so that we can work around broken cast constness requirements
          with Sun CC 4.2.  It requires, for example, that a reinterpret
          cast to a local pointer variable in a const member function be
          const.  Wrong.

        * ace/Basic_Types.i (operator/ and %): fixed comments: former
          instead of latter.

Thu Apr 02 16:23:12 1998  Irfan Pyarali  <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/WFMO_Reactor.i (dump): Also changed the method from HANDLE
          to ACE_HANDLE.

Thu Apr  2 15:36:20 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace: Added

          #define ACE_HAS_STL_QUEUE_CONFLICT

          to the config files which had ACE_HAS_STL_MAP_CONFLICT defined,
          i.e.,
          config-sunos5.5-g++.h
          config-sunos5.5-sunc++-4.x.h

          Thanks to Russ Noseworthy <rnosewor@objectsciences.com> for
          reporting this.

Thu Apr  2 15:14:35 1998  Sumedh Mungee  <sumedh@lindy.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/WFMO_Reactor.h (dump): Renamed HANDLE to ACE_HANDLE.

Thu Apr 02 14:23:11 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/Reactor_Notify_Test.cpp (Supplier_Task::handle_output):
          added a thr_yield () so that the Supplier_Task always gets a
          chance to run.

        * tests/run_tests.sh: Reactor_Notify_Test is OK on Chorus now.

Wed Apr 01 18:59:42 1998  Irfan Pyarali  <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/WFMO_Reactor.cpp (dump): Added dump() methods.

        * ace/Msg_WFMO_Reactor.cpp (wait_for_multiple_events): Reverted
          Nanbor's change.  The flag is properly set in
          ACE_Msg_WFMO_Reactor::alertable_handle_events().

Wed Apr  1 15:40:01 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace: Made the WMFO_Reactor and Select_Reactor's dump() methods
          virtual to underscore the fact that the Reactor_Impl's new
          dump() method is also virtual.

        * ace/OS.h: Changed ACE_HAS_STL_MAP_CONFLICT to
          ACE_HAS_STL_QUEUE_CONFLICT for the appropriate cases in ACE.
          Thanks to Russ Noseworthy <rnosewor@objectsciences.com> for
          reporting this.

        * ace/CORBA_Handler.cpp (ACE_CORBA_Handler): The reference_count_
          data member wasn't being initialized correctly.  Thanks to
          Mahesh Chandwani <chandwani@lucent.com> for reporting this.

        * ace: Renamed config-sunos5.5-sunc++-4.x-orbix.h to
          config-sunos5.x-sunc++-4.x-orbix.h since this config file works
          with SunOS 5.5 and 5.6.  Thanks to Mahesh Chandwani
          <chandwani@lucent.com> for reporting this.

Wed Apr 01 16:28:30 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Reactor.{h,cpp},Reactor_Impl.h (dump): added dump ()
          method, which calls the (existing) dump () in the reactor
          implementation.

        * ace/High_Res_Timer.* (hrtime_to_tv): fixed conversion of
          ACE_hrtime_t to ACE_Time_Value to be compatible with
          ACE_U_LongLong.

Wed Apr 01 09:32:27 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Msg_WFMO_Reactor.cpp (wait_for_multiple_events): Should not
          wait for all objects in this function.

Tue Mar 31 15:27:25 1998  Steve Huston  <shuston@riverace.com>

        * apps/JAWS/server/JAWS_Pipeline_Handler.cpp: Defined 'status' in
          the put() function.

        * ace/config-dgux-4.x-ghs.h: Removed settings for ACE_SIZEOF_LONG_LONG
          since the compiler doesn't really support a long long that ACE
          is looking for (64-bit).  Use the ACE-supplied ACE_ULongLong type.

Tue Mar 31 10:46:23 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Msg_WFMO_Reactor.cpp: Changed to use
          MsgWaitForMultipleObjects if we are not under NT.  Also in
          MsgWaitForMultipleObjectsEx, we should use NT defined flags
          instead of the boolean "alertable" directly.

Tue Mar 31 07:22:09 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.i (cond_timedwait): restored ACE_HAS_DCE_DRAFT4_THREADS
          behavior to use absolute time.  Special-case only on LynxOS,
          which requires a relative time.  Thanks to Steve Coy
          <stevec@magna.com.au> for reporting this on HP-UX.

        * tests/Thread_Manager_Test.cpp (worker): cache the thread's
          Signal_Catcher on entry.  That way, we don't have to
          dereference it in the worker's loop.  It seems that a worker
          thread can continue to run after main exits (and cleans up
          TSS).  That shouldn't happen, but it looks like it does on
          Linux, LynxOS, and Digital Unix.  Thanks to James CE Johnson
          <jcej@lads.com> for verifying that the fix works on Linux/
          Intel and DU 4.0.

        * examples/Threads/task_five.cpp (main): wrapped return statement
          at end with ACE_NOTREACHED.  This will prevent compiler warnings
          from Green Hills and DEC CXX, and maybe SGI cc.

Fri Mar 27 23:04:08 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/config-linux-common.h: added ACE_DEFAULT_MAX_SOCKET_BUFSIZ
          65535, because some Linux 2.1.x kernels fail setsockopts if
          bigger than that.  Thanks to Ravi Nagabhyru <ravi@future-minds.com>
          for reporting that.  Also changed hard-code ACE_PAGESIZE to
          ACE_HAS_GETPAGESIZE, even though getpagesize () doesn't get
          used.  ACE_OS::getpagesize () uses sysconf on Linux.

        * performance-tests/UDP/udp_test.cpp (main): getopt.optarg instead
          of optarg, for -f option.

        * ace/IPC_SAP.cpp (enable,disable): removed the ACE_NOTREACHED
          wrappers around the return statements.  Seems that some versions
          of Green Hills complain about an unreachable statement, but
          we'll live with it.  This change is only visible with SGI,
          DEC CXX, and Green Hills.

        * include/makeinclude/platform_vxworks5.x_ghs.GNU: added missing
          close paren after ppc conditional.  Thanks to Brian Mendel for
          reporting this.

Fri Mar 27 16:47:26 1998  Steve Huston  <shuston@riverace.com>

        * tests/tests.mdp: Made settings for Env_Value_Test consistent with
          other tests, so that run_tests.bat can find it.

        * netsvcs/servers/servers4.mdp: Added ..\lib to Include directories
          when building in Release mode.

Fri Mar 27 13:55:13 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/High_Res_Timer.i (gettime): ACE_OS::gettimeofday doesn't
          take any argument.

Fri Mar 27 09:50:52 1998  Steve Huston  <shuston@riverace.com>

        * ace/Strategies_T.cpp: Added #include "ace/Service_Repository.h" for
          compile on HP.  Thanks to Steve Coy <stevec@magna.com.au> for this.

Fri Mar 27 09:21:21 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/test_config.h: with Green Hills on VxWorks, rename
          main to ace_main for compatibility with run_tests.vxworks.

        * ace/OS.{h,i},High_Res_Timer.* (gethrtime): added an optional
          argument to allow specifying start/increment/stop to a timer.
          It is currently only used on Chorus.  On Chorus, using
          the default ACE_HRTIMER_GETTIME will use clock_gettime ()
          instead of sysBench ().  sysBench () disables interrupts,
          so it must be used with care.

Thu Mar 26 21:18:57 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Basic_Types.h,config-g++-common.h,config-freebsd*.h,
          config-netbsd.h: moved setting of ACE_SIZEOF_LONG_DOUBLE to 12
          from Basic_Types.h to config-g++-common.h and the FreeBSD/NetBSD
          config files.

Thu Mar 26 20:53:30 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Containers.{h,i,cpp}: Changed the template parameter name
          <SIZE> to <ACE_SIZE> to avoid namespace polution.  Thank to John
          Mulhern <9107@MN3.LAWSON.lawson.com> for suggestion this.

Thu Mar 26 17:23:38 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.4.36, released Thu Mar 26 17:23:38 1998.

Thu Mar 26 12:54:57 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/IPC_SAP.cpp (enable,disable): wrapped return statement
          at end with ACE_NOTREACHED.

        * include/makeinclude/platform_vxworks5.x_ghs.GNU: added support
          for x86 targets.

        * ace/Basic_Types.h: sizeof (long double) is 8 on ghs/VxWorks/i386,
          not 12.

Wed Mar 25 10:10:04 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * include/makeinclude/platform_{chorus,vxworks5.x}_ghs.GNU:
          change OFLAGS to OCFLAGS.

        * include/makeinclude/platform_chorus_ghs.GNU: if debug is enabled,
          link with crth_d.s.o instead of crth.s.o.

        * ace/config-g++common.h: don't #define
          ACE_HAS_TEMPLATE_SPECIALIZATION with egcs 2.91.  Thanks to
          Sudish Joseph <sj@eng.mindspring.net> and
          Loren Rittle <rittle@comm.mot.com> for reporting this
          apparent bug with egcs 2.91.  (egcs 2.90 builds ACE cleanly
          with ACE_HAS_TEMPLATE_SPECIALIZATION.)

        * include/makeinclude/platform_vxworks5.x_g++.GNU: add VxWorks
          host bin directory to PATH if its not already there.

Tue Mar 24 19:48:44 1998  Irfan Pyarali  <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Proactor.cpp (timeout): Changed comparison from || to
          &&. Thanks to Jason Katz <Jason@email.rts-inc.com> for reporting
          this.

Tue Mar 24 18:14:18 1998  Steve Huston  <shuston@riverace.com>

        * ace/Env_Value_T.h: added #include "ace/OS.h" to get the definition
          for ACE_static_cast - AIX xlC needs it for auto template generation.

Tue Mar 24 09:00:36 1998  Carlos O'Ryan  <coryan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * bin/auto_compile:
          Missing newline after the "DISABLED" message.

Tue Mar 24 07:38:44 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/config-sunos5.5-g++.h: replaced ACE_PAGE_SIZE with
          ACE_HAS_GETPAGESIZE, and added ACE_HAS_STL_MAP_CONFLICT.
          Thanks to Loren Rittle <rittle@comm.mot.com> for reporting
          these.

Mon Mar 23 12:06:30 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * performance_tests/UDP/udp_test.cpp: made use of the Reactor
          optional.  With this change, the performance is comparable
          to the original C version.

        * ace/OS.{h,i} (wslen,wscpy): added these, and WChar typedef,
          for TAO.

        * include/makeinclude/platform_chorus_ghs.GNU: moved directories
          to /project/doc/mvme/.

        * ace/config-vxworks5.x.h: protected #define of ACE_MAIN so that
          it can be #defined on the command line.

Mon Mar 23 11:38:43 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.h (MAXPATHLEN): Guard the MAXPATHLEN definition with
          #ifndef in case if has already been defined.  Thanks to "Patrick
          J. McNerthney" <pat@thememedia.com> for reporting this.

Mon Mar 23 03:18:50 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.4.35, released Mon Mar 23 03:18:50 1998.

Mon Mar 23 00:03:37 1998  Irfan Pyarali  <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * examples/Reactor/ReactorEx/test_abandoned.cpp: Tests the
          WFMO_Reactor's ability to handle abandoned mutexes.

        * examples/Reactor/ReactorEx/test_apc.cpp: Tests the
          WFMO_Reactor's ability to handle regular APC notifications.

Sun Mar 22 23:47:00 1998  Irfan Pyarali  <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/WFMO_Reactor.cpp: Added code to the Reactor to make it more
          resilient when the wait() function returns WAIT_IO_COMPLETION
          and WAIT_ABANDONED.

          ok_to_wait: Keep waiting if wait() returns WAIT_IO_COMPLETION.

          dispatch: Return <handlers_dispatched> if wait() returns
          WAIT_IO_COMPLETION.

          dispatch_handles: Added code to correctly handle WAIT_ABANDONED
          and to correctly figure out the index of the handler to be
          dispatched.

          Thanks to Beskrovny Evgeny (evgeny_beskrovny@icomverse.com) of
          Comverse Network Systems for pointing out the problem with
          WAIT_IO_COMPLETION.

        * ace/Reactor.cpp (run_alertable_event_loop): Added new function
          that runs the Reactor using alertable_handle_events() instead of
          handle_events().

Sat Mar 21 19:58:42 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.i (flock_destroy): lock->lockname_ should be cast to
          LPTSTR instead of char*.  Thanks to Goran Lowkrantz
          <Goran.Lowkrantz@infologigruppen.se> for reporting this.

        * examples/Threads/task_five.cpp: Allow users to set thread stack
          size from command lines.  If a user doesn't give one, it will be
          set to 8k on non-Windows platforms.

Fri Mar 20 22:07:15 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/ACE_Library.{mak,mdp}: Added Msg_WFMO_Reactor.

        * ace/Asynch_IO.cpp (cancel): Added version check because MSVC 4.2
          doesn't support CancelIo.

Fri Mar 20 21:46:16 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.4.34, released Fri Mar 20 21:46:16 1998.

Fri Mar 20 20:53:27 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Parse_Node.cpp: Fixed typos.

Fri Mar 20 14:18:53 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * performance-tests/UDP/udp_test.cpp: Completed the ACE'ification
          of this test.

Fri Mar 20 09:31:22 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.h: with ACE_LACKS_WCHAR_T, changed wchar_t typedef
          from long to ACE_UINT32 to ensure that it is 4 bytes on
          any platform.

        * performance-tests/UDP/udp_test.cpp: added this test, which
          provides UDP performance statistics.  Thanks to Fred Kuhns
          <fredk@arl.wustl.edu> for contributing the test.

Thu Mar 19 10:15:27 1998  Steve Huston  <shuston@riverace.com>

        * ace/OS.i: Changed the dynamic library load/unload code so that
          on HP-UX, g++ does the same thing as aC++ (not like HP C++), using
          <dl.h> and shl_(un)load.  Thanks to Kirill Rybaltchenko
          <Kirill.Rybaltchenko@cern.ch> for this change.

Thu Mar 19 10:13:35 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * performance-tests/Misc/preempt.cpp: 1) Added -f option to fork
          instead of spawning new threads.  2) Added -l option for
          specifying number of iterations of low priority thread/process.
          3) On Solaris, print LWP ID.

Thu Mar 19 02:47:42 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/ace_dll.dsp: Link against user32.lib for all configurations
          for we now use Msg_WFMO and related APIs in ACE.  (We should do
          the same to ace_lib.dsp.)

        * ace/config-WinCE.h: Added dummy definition of stdin and stdout.
          They don't have any real effect.

        * ace/ACE.{h,cpp} (ldopen,ldfind): Made these functions visible
          under CE.  Modified them to work under CE.

        * ace/OS.cpp: Added scope name to day_of_week_name and
          month_name.  They are used only on CE.

        * ace/OS.{h,i}: Added some dummy C methods for CE.  Yacc and Lex
          generated codes use these functions, although we don't really
          use them in ACE.

        * ace/OS.i (exit): Added implementation of ACE_OS::exit under CE.  Since
          there's no ExitProcess available, I use TerminateProcess, which
          is not exactly the same as using ExitProcess but that's the
          closest thing I can think of.
          (open): Made the char version unsupported under CE.
          (fread,fwrite,...): Added dummy C methods definition for CE.

        * ace/Parse_Node.cpp: Regular CE stuff.  There's a boundary
          of char/wchar functions somewhere in this file.  Most Svc_Conf
          stuff uses char functions but the information gets converted to
          wchar later.

        * ace/Service_Config.{h,i}: Added char version function for
          Service_Type under CE.  Service_Type (and its subclasses) are
          the boundary of char/wchar functions.

        * ace/Service_Object.{h,i}: Added the chname method which always
          returns char value of a Service_Object under all platforms.

        * ace/Svc_Conf.y:
        * ace/Svc_Conf_y.cpp:
        * ace/Object_Manager.{cpp}: Regular CE stuff.

        * ace/Svc_Conf_l.cpp: Regular CE stuff.  Haven't figure out a way
          to modify this from Svc_Conf.l yet.

        * ace/Service_Config.cpp
        * ace/Object_Manager.{cpp}: Ifdef'ed inclusion of Naming Context
          related header files out.  Naming context uses Registry which
          uses iostream and STL, both are not available on CE (yet?).

        * ace/WFMO_Reactor.{h,cpp}:
        * ace/Proactor.{h,i,cpp}:
        * ace/Asynch_IO.{h,cpp}: Ifdef'ed the body so they are not visible
          under CE.  CE doesn't have asynchronous IO.

Wed Mar 18 21:30:39 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.4.33, released Wed Mar 18 21:30:39 1998.

Wed Mar 18 16:36:17 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * Makefile (releaseall): There is no more TAO.tar.gz.  There are
          now two tar files, ACE.tar.gz and ACE+TAO.tar.gz.
          ACE+TAO.tar.gz contains ALL of ACE.  In particular, it will
          always have the same version number and same ACE contents as
          ACE.tar.gz.  The intent here is that people who just want to use
          ACE will use ACE.tar.gz and people who want to use ACE and TAO
          will use ACE+TAO.tar.gz.  Thanks to David Levine and Irfan for
          helping with this.

Wed Mar 18 15:50:30 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Log_Msg.cpp (ACE_Log_Msg): Added codes to grab
          ACE_Log_Msg_Manager's lock while updating the instance_count_.
          There was a race condition without the change.  Thanks to Detlef
          Becker's <Detlef.Becker@med.siemens.de> thread creation stress
          test to reveal the bug.

Tue Mar 17 17:20:00 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * examples/Threads/test.dsw:
        * examples/Threads/task_five.cpp:
        * examples/Threads/task_five.dsp:
        * examples/Threads/Makefile: Added a new ACE_Task testing
          program. Thanks to Detlef Becker <Detlef.Becker@med.siemens.de>
          for providing the source.

Wed Mar 18 11:00:11 1998  Alexander Babu Arulanthu  <alex@merengue.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Hash_Map_Manager.cpp (map): This method has been added to
        the ACE_Hash_Map_Iterator_Base class.

Wed Mar 18 09:25:30 1998  Chris Gill  <cdgill@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/ace.dsw: added user32.lib to link for dynamic library on NT
          for all builds.

Wed Mar 18 09:22:13 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Containers.cpp,Hash_Map_Manager.cpp,Map_Manager.cpp
          (operator *): initialize retv to 0 to avoid warning about
          using it before setting its value.

        * tests/Thread_Mutex_Test.cpp (test): added no-op statement to
          suppress GHS warning about unused local variable "mutex".

        * tests/Priority_Buffer_Test.cpp (consumer): added no-op statement
          to suppress GHS warning about unused local variable "cur_priority".

        * ace/README: removed ACE_HAS_BOOL.  It was unused.

        * performance-tests/Misc/basic_func.{h,cpp},basic_perf.cpp:
          With MSVC 5.0, do something in the empty iteration because
          otherwise it gets completely optimized away.  Thanks to
          Alexander Ovsiankin <sasha@technologist.com> for providing
          this fix.

Tue Mar 17 23:53:56 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * examples/Threads/task_five.cpp (main): Reformatted Detlef's new
          torture test so that it conforms to ACE programming conventions.

Tue Mar 17 23:22:20 1998  Irfan Pyarali  <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Reactor.cpp (ACE_Reactor): If
          ACE_USE_MSG_WFMO_REACTOR_FOR_REACTOR_IMPL is defined, use
          ACE_Msg_WFMO_Reactor for ACE_Reactor::instance().

        * examples/Reactor/ReactorEx/test_window_messages.cpp: Tests
          Msg_WFMO_Reactor's ability to handle regular events and window
          messages.

Tue Mar 17 21:41:57 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * examples/Threads/task_five.cpp (svc): use ACE_OS::sleepq
          instead of ::Sleep.  (main): declare "ii" outside of the
          first loop because it is used in other loops.

Tue Mar 17 16:02:26 1998  Irfan Pyarali  <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/WFMO_Reactor: Changes were made to WFMO_Reactor to make it
          easier to extend it to handle window messages:

          - dispatch_handler() checks if there are window messages that
            need to be dispatched if the <index> matches <max_handlep1>.
            If there are, they are dispatched by calling
            dispatch_window_messages().

          - dispatch_window_messages() is a noop for WFMO_Reactor.

          - Checking the return values from Wait*() functions was changed
            as (WAIT_OBJECT_0 + nCount) is now a valid index.

          - Checking for remaining handles was abstracted into
            poll_remaining_handles().

          - Expiring of timer was abstracted out into expire_timers().
            Only the owner thread expires the timers.

          - calculate_timeout() was removed from
            wait_for_multiple_events().

        * ace/Msg_WFMO_Reactor: A new Reactor that specializes the
          WFMO_Reactor.  WFMO_Reactor uses WaitForMultipleObjects while
          Msg_WFMO_Reactor uses MsgWaitForMultipleObjects.  This allows
          the Msg_WFMO_Reactor to react to Windows and COM/DCOM messages
          in addition to the regular WFMO_Reactor events.

          Thanks to Beskrovny Evgeny (evgeny_beskrovny@icomverse.com) of
          Comverse Network Systems for contributing this to ACE.

Tue Mar 17 13:15:11 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Future.cpp: Added missing ACE_MT macros so that we now
          compile correctly if we don't have threads.  Thanks to Laura
          Paterno <lpaterno@d0chb.fnal.gov> for reporting this.

Tue Mar 17 15:13:17 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/High_Res_Timer.cpp (dump): fleshed out the implementation.

        * ace/Profile_Timer.{h,cpp} (dump): implemented for platforms
          w/o ACE_HAS_PRUSAGE_T and ACE_HAS_GETRUSAGE.

        * ace/OS.i (gethrtime): with ACE_HAS_CLOCK_GETTIME, carefully
          construct return value to avoid arithmetic overflow if
          ACE_LACKS_LONGLONG_T.

Mon Mar 16 22:18:07 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/IPC_SAP.cpp: Moved return values outside of the #ifdefs to
          quiet warning messages with KAI C++.  Thanks to Laura Paterno
          <lpaterno@d0chb.fnal.gov> for reporting this.

Tue Mar 17 00:04:53 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Svc_Conf.y:
        * ace/Svc_Conf_y.cpp: Applied "Regular CE Tricks [TM]".

Mon Mar 16 23:34:39 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/README:
        * ace/config-WinCE.h: Added ACE_LACKS_STRRCHR.

        * ace/OS.i: Added implementation of ACE_OS::strrchr () when
          platforms don't provide one.

Mon Mar 16 16:08:45 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/High_Res_Timer.cpp: set global_scale_factor_ to 1000 with
          ACE_HAS_CLOCK_GETTIME, because clock_gettime has nanosecond
          resolution, and with PSOS.

        * ace/Profile_Timer.{h,cpp},tests/Handle_Set_Test.cpp: use units
          of microseconds instead of seconds if ACE_LACKS_FLOATING_POINT.

        * ace/OS.i (hostname): on Chorus, try the HOST environment variable
          if ::gethostname () returns an empty string.

Mon Mar 16 13:04:58 1998  Seth Benjamin Widoff  <sbw1@waltz.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.h:
        Extended the ACE_HAS_STL_MAP_CONFLICT to include 'queue' as well
        as 'map.' 'queue' is defined in sys/stream.h, which is included in
        OS.h by netinet/in.h and sys/timod.h.

Mon Mar 16 00:22:40 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * CE-status: Updated CE port status.

        * ace/config-WinCE.h: Added macro definitions for EOF and BUFSIZ.

        * ace/OS.{h,i} (ace_isspace): Added both char and wchar version
          functions.  Notice that this can't be called isspace because
          most compilers implement isspace as a macro.
          (dlerror,dlsym): Added wchar version of these functions under CE.

        * ace/OS.cpp (fork_exec): Modified parameters passed to
          CreateProcess under CE.

        * ace/ARGV.{h,i,cpp}: Unicodize this class under CE.  Notice that
          under CE, you won't be able to use environment variable
          substitution since there's no environment variable at all.

        * ace/Reactor.cpp: Don't include Service_Config.h and
          WFMO_Reactor.h under CE for now. Prevent Reactor from
          reconfigure the service configurator.

        * ace/Task.cpp: Don't include Service_Config.h under CE for now.
          Prevent Task_Base from reconfigure the service configurator.

        * ace/SString.cpp: Don't include Service_Config.h under CE for
          now.

        * ace/Svc_Conf.h:
        * ace/Shared_Object.{h,cpp}:
        * ace/Service_Type.{h,i,cpp}:
        * ace/Service_Repository.{h,cpp}:
        * ace/Service_Object.{h,i,cpp}:
        * ace/Service_Manager.{h,cpp}:
        * ace/Service_Config.{h,i,cpp}: Unicodize service configurator
          related classes.  I still need to find a point which breaks the
          usage of char functions that flex and yacc use and wchar
          functions that most CE functions use.

        * ace/Get_Opt.{h,cpp}:
        * ace/Local_Token.{h,i,cpp}:
        * ace/Map_Manager.cpp:

        * ace/Stream_Module.{h,cpp}:
        * ace/Token_Manager.{h,cpp}:
        * ace/Activation_Queue.cpp: Unicodize classes. Regular CE stuff.

Sat Mar 14 06:43:32 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Basic_Types.h,config-win32-common.h,config-irix*.h:
          moved WIN32 and SGI-specific code out of Basic_Types.h and
          into their respective config files.

        * ace/Object_Manager.h: changed ACE_HAS_NON_STATIC_OBJECT_MANAGER
          to ACE_HAS_NONSTATIC_OBJECT_MANAGER in comments.  Thanks to
          Kirill Rybaltchenko <Kirill.Rybaltchenko@cern.ch> for reporting
          this.

        * include/makeinclude/platform_chorus_ghs.GNU: set PATH, and
          remove /tmp/gh_*.[os] files that GreenHills leaves.

        * ace/INET_ADDR.cpp (get_host_name): on Chorus, save errno in
          error so that it gets propagated back to the caller.

Sat Mar 14 00:13:22 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Task.h (ACE_Task_Base): Give a default value of 0 for the
          Thread Manager so we can use this as a base class.

        * tests/Future_Test.cpp: Since the Scheduler provides its own
          activation queue it doesn't make sense to inherit from ACE_Task
          (which provides its own queue) but instead ACE_Task_Base
          (which doesn't define its own queue).  Thanks to Loren Rittle
          <rittle@comm.mot.com> for reporting this.

        * examples/Threads/future[12].cpp: Since the Scheduler provides
          its own activation queue it doesn't make sense to inherit from
          ACE_Task (which provides its own queue) but instead
          ACE_Task_Base (which doesn't define its own queue).  Thanks to
          Loren Rittle <rittle@comm.mot.com> for reporting this.

        * examples/Threads/future[12].cpp: Removed the explicit call to
          scheduler_->close() to avoid closing the scheduler down twice.
          Thanks to Loren Rittle <rittle@comm.mot.com> for reporting this.

Fri Mar 13 23:41:44 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Process.cpp (ACE_Process_Options): Moved column out of
          ifdef'ed area.

Fri Mar 13 21:17:51 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Process.cpp (ACE_Process_Options): reordered initializers
          to match declaration order.

Fri Mar 13 17:30:16 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Process.{h,i,cpp}: As CE's CreateProcess is basically
          broken, you can only start a new process using ACE_Process.  You
          cannot set any of environment, process attributes, thread
          attributes, current directory, stratup info, and security
          attributes. I have modified these files so that most attribute
          access functions just do nothing.  Some of "do nothing"
          functions were defined as ACE_INLINE on CE.

        * ace/Memory_Pool.cpp:  Regular CE stuff.

Fri Mar 13 17:42:17 1998  Irfan Pyarali  <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/WFMO_Reactor.cpp (handle_signal): If there are still
          notification in the queue, we need to wake up again.

Fri Mar 13 09:09:08 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Profile_Timer.*,config-chorus.GNU,README,
          tests/Handle_Set_Test.cpp (test_performance): added
          ACE_LACKS_FLOATING_POINT support.

        * include/makeinclude/platform_chorus_ghs.GNU: removed
          -X445 from CFLAGS.  I don't know what it does.

Fri Mar 13 01:10:36 1998  Irfan Pyarali  <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/WFMO_Reactor: The following changes were made to make the
          registration and removal of event_handlers from WFMO_Reactor
          more robust. Thanks to Jonathan Biggar <jon@floorboard.com> for
          helping out.

          - ACE_WFMO_Reactor_Handler_Repository::Common_Info now contains
            the delete_entry_ and close_masks_ fields as these were now
            common to all three structures.

          - handle_additions() and handle_deletions() were changed to
            make_changes_in_current_infos(),
            make_changes_in_suspension_infos(), and
            make_changes_in_to_be_added_infos()

          - Correct range for suspend_handlers() is 0 to max_handlep1_
            rather than (max_handlep1_ - 1)

          - suspend_handlers(),
            resume_handlers(),
            add_network_events_i(),
            unbind_i(),
            suspend_handler_i(),
            resume_handler_i(),
            unbind_all(),

            now go through the to_be_add_info_ array when making changes.

        * examples/Reactor/ReactorEx/test_prerun_state_changes.cpp: New
          test added to check the Reactor's ability to handle state
          changes before getting a chance to run.

        * examples/Reactor/ReactorEx/test_talker.cpp (main): Remove the
          Procator from the Reactor so that the Proactor is not called
          after it has been destroyed.

Thu Mar 12 19:36:43 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE-INSTALL.html: Tidied up a bunch of things in this file.
          Also, created a new $ACE_ROOT/os-patches/ directory and moved
          the patches for Linux and LynxOS into this in order to
          consolidate the patches into one location.

        * ace/WFMO_Reactor.cpp (upcall): Cleaned up a bunch of code to (1)
          avoid a nasty "dangling else" bug and (2) simplify a bunch of
          if/if statements.  Thanks to Jonathan Biggar
          <jon@floorboard.com> for pointing this out.

Thu Mar 12 18:21:15 1998  James C Hu  <jxh@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/config-linux-common.h: Incorporated changes that were
          suggested by Robert Hanzlik <robi@codalan.cz> to get ACE to
          compile on Linux using glibc 2.1 and libg++/gcc 2.8.

Thu Mar 12 17:25:28 1998  James C Hu  <jxh@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE-INSTALL.html: Added a table to Supported Platforms and
          Compilers.

Thu Mar 12 16:28:32 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * Apply regular string manipulation for CE to following files:
          ACE.cpp ARGV.cpp Acceptor.cpp Activation_Queue.cpp

Thu Mar 12 15:37:14 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Read_Buffer.* (read): null terminate the result buffer.
          Also, changed "inline" to "ACE_INLINE" and updated #includes
          so that ACE inlining works.

Thu Mar 12 02:19:53 1998  Irfan Pyarali  <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/WFMO_Reactor.cpp (upcall): In the Select_Reactor, when it
          upcalls to an event_handler which returns a -1, the
          Select_Reactor only clears the specific mask bit for the
          handler.  For example, for a call to
          Event_Handler::handle_input() which returns -1, the
          Select_Reactor clears the READ_MASK bit.

          In the WFMO_Reactor, if any handler returns a -1, then it clears
          ALL of the mask bits for the event handler.

          So, fixed WFMO_Reactor so that it works like Select_Reactor in
          this regard.

          Thanks to Jonathan Biggar <jon@floorboard.com> for pointing this
          discrepancy out.

        * ace/WFMO_Reactor.cpp (dispatch_handles): The correct range check is
          {WAIT_OBJECT_0,WAIT_OBJECT_0 + this->handler_rep_.max_handlep1 () - index}
          and not
          {WAIT_OBJECT_0,WAIT_OBJECT_0 + this->handler_rep_.max_handlep1 ()}

          Thanks to Evgeny Beskrovny evgeny_beskrovny@icomverse.com for
          pointing this out.

Wed Mar 11 15:20:09 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.i (thr_getspecific): Added comments to the code to
          explain the unusual step of saving errno across calls to
          TlsGetValue() on Win32.  Thanks to Tim Harrison for clarifying
          this.

Wed Mar 11 00:39:29 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * CE-status: A temporary file to trace the progress of the CE
          port.

        * ace/ace_ce_dll.dsp: Added more .cpp files.

        * ace/High_Res_Timer.{h,cpp}: Undefined functions print_ave and
          print_total.  These two function use STDOUT which is not
          supported on CE.  We should probably modify the functions so
          they write results to Log_Msg.
          (get_register_scale_factor): This function always returns 1 on
          CE to prevent the use of High_Res_Timer.
          (get_env_global_scale_factor): Always returns -1 on CE because
          environment variables are not supported.

        * ace/Thread_Manager.cpp (spawn_i): WinCE doesn't support
          DuplicateHandle, therefore the best we can do now is just pass
          back the handle to the spawned thread.  Notice that you *can't*
          close the handle by yourself under CE.  Perhaps we shouldn't
          even try to pass this info back. ???
          Applied regular CE porting tricks.

        * ace/SOCK_Dgram_Mcast.{h,cpp}:
        * ace/SOCK_Dgram_Bcast.{h,cpp}: Changed some function signatures
          to use wchar on CE.  Applied regular CE porting tricks.

        * ace/IO_SAP.cpp:
        * ace/SOCK_CODgram.cpp:
        * ace/SOCK_Dgram.cpp:
        * ace/Select_Reactor.cpp:
        * ace/Timer_{Hash,Heap,List,Queue,Wheel}_T.cpp: Applied regular CE
          porting tricks.  Erm, I'm running out of tricks.

Tue Mar 10 20:27:57 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Reactor.h (reset_event_loop): Made the signature match with
          its definition in .cpp file.

Tue Mar 10 15:07:00 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Svc_Handler.cpp,
          ace/Module.cpp:
          Fixed some problems where Svc_Handlers in Modules were being
          deleted prematurely.  Thanks to Steve Coy <stevec@magna.com.au>
          for reporting this.

        * ace/Reactor.h (ACE_Reactor): Added a "reset_event_loop" method
          so that it's possible to reset the loop again once the
          end_event_loop() method is called.  Thanks to Eric Hopper
          <ehopper@globalmt.com> for reporting this.

        * ace/IOStream_T.cpp (ACE_IOStream): Moved some code to work
          around some bugs with MSVC++ 5.0.  Thanks to James CE Johnson
          <ace-users@lads.com> for reporting this.

Tue Mar 10 15:57:54 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Handle_Set.cpp (dump):  Cast mask_.fd_count to size_t.
          Depend on whether you are using standard C++ library, the type
          of fd_count count be size_t or ssize_t.  Thanks to Darrell for
          discovering this.

Tue Mar 10 13:22:24 1998  Irfan Pyarali  <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Asynch_IO.cpp (cancel): CancelIo is not supported on Win95.

        * ace/SString.cpp (set): Use ACE_WString::wstrlen().

Tue Mar 10 06:59:42 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/SString.cpp (WString::set): added support for platforms
          that don't have wchar_t, or that treat wchar_t and ACE_USHORT16
          as different types.

        * ace/OS.h,Basic_Types.h: moved ACE_USHORT16 typedef from OS.h to
          Basic_Types.h.

        * ace/High_Res_Timer.h: fixed comment:  timer.start () instead of
          timer.stop () (twice).

Mon Mar 09 22:15:43 1998  Irfan Pyarali  <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/SString.cpp (ACE_CString::operator=): Special cases have to
          considered carefully so that memory is managed properly.  This
          is specially true when the ACE_CString::NULL_CString_ is used.

        * ace/SString.h (ACE_CString and ACE_WString): Added set methods
          that allows the user to set the strings without having to use
          the assignment operator.

Mon Mar 09 16:11:16 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * examples/Map_Manager/test_hash_map_manager.cpp: added #include
          of ace/SString.h and template instantiations.  Replaced gets
          with ACE_OS::fgets.

        * examples/Makefile,examples/Map_Manager/Makefile: added
          Map_Manager to examples DIRS and added RCS keyword string.

Mon Mar  9 14:59:20 1998  Carlos O'Ryan  <coryan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * include/makeinclude/platform_irix6.x-sgic++.GNU:
          Added the definition for MATHLIB.

Mon Mar 09 01:23:49 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/ace_ce.dsw:
        * ace/ace_ce_dll.dsp: New project/workspace files for WinCE.  This
          is a temporary workspace only and should be merged into ACE mail
          Win32 project/workspace when the port is stable enough.

        * ace/config-WinCE.h: Added ACE_LACKS_GETS.

        * ace/Synch.i (get_nesting_level): Defined it as not supported on
          CE.  CE's CriticalSections don't have RecursionCount defined.
          We should be able to simulate this, however.

        * ace/Process.{h,cpp}:
        * ace/SString.{h,cpp}: Moved class ACE_Tokenizer from Process.* to
          SString.*.  Although ACE_Tokenizer is used in
          ACE_Process[_Options], it really is a more general utility
          class.
          (operator<<): Conditionally compile these functions only when we
          are not running ACE on CE.

        * ace/OS.i (atoi): Added inline implementation for wchar version.
          (gets): Remove condition !defined (ACE_HAS_WINCE).  This should
          be taken care of by ACE_LACKS_GETS.

        * ace/OS.h (atoi): Added wchar version of this function.
          (ASYS_WIDE_STRING): This macro converts char strings to
          wchar strings when ACE_HAS_MOSTLY_UNICODE_APIS is defined.
          (ASYS_MULTIBYTE_STRING): This macro converts wchar strings back
          to char strings *only* when ACE_HAS_MOSTLY_UNICODE_APIS is
          defined.

        * ace/INET_Addr.{h,cpp}: Redefined interface signatures on WinCE
          using ASYS_* macros.  The principle here is to pass wide char
          strings in and get char strings out.  That's because we will use
          mostly wchar strings in CE but most winsock APIs return (or uses
          char strings.)  Doing so should reduce conversion between them
          to minimum.
          Converting debug messages with ASYS_TEXT.

        * ace/Log_Msg.cpp (open):
        * ace/ACE.cpp (get_ip_interfaces): Only convert the wide character
          string to a char string when ACE_HAS_MOSTLY_UNICODE_APIS flag is
          not set using the ASYS_MULTIBYTE_STRING macro.

        * ace/SOCK.cpp:
        * ace/SOCK_Acceptor.cpp:
        * ace/Malloc.cpp:
        * ace/Malloc_T.cpp:
        * ace/Synch.cpp:
        * ace/Message_Block.cpp:
        * ace/IPC_SAP.cpp:
        * ace/Handle_Set.cpp:
        * ace/Addr.cpp: Converting debugging messages to wchar strings for
          CE using the ASYS_TEXT macro.

Sun Mar 08 14:29:30 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * apps/Gateway/Gateway/Event_Channel.cpp (initiate_acceptors):
          changed SUPPLIER_CONNECTOR to SUPPLIER_ACCEPTOR.  Thanks
          to Dani Flexer <danif@ivory-sw.com> for reporting this.

        * ace/OS.i (cond_timedwait): removed "struct" from declaration
          of local timespec_t relative_time, because timespec_t can
          be a typedef.  Thanks to Steve Coy <stevec@magna.com.au> for
          reporting this.

        * Makefile: tag from ACE_wrappers, not its parent directory,
          to avoid confusing CVS.

Sat Mar 07 16:46:58 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.4.32, released Sat Mar 07 16:46:58 1998.

Fri Mar 06 08:37:44 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * bin/ace_ld: made perl4-compatible.  Thanks to
          Jerry Bickle <glbick@most.fw.hac.com> for reporting this.

        * ace/os.i: (sigwait): removed "::" from before sigwait () call
          with ACE_HAS_ONEARG_SIGWAIT, in case it's a macro.  Thanks
          to Kirill Rybaltchenko <Kirill.Rybaltchenko@cern.ch> for
          reporting this.

        * bin/create_ace_build: made perl4-compatible.  Thanks to
          Carlos for noticing this.

        * include/makeinclude/platform_vxworks5.x_g++.GNU:  added
          WIN32 host support.  Thanks to Paul von Behren
          <Paul_von_Behren@stortek.com> for providing the patches.

        * ACE-INSTALL.html:  added information from Paul von Behren
          <Paul_von_Behren@stortek.com> on building on NT hosts for
          VxWorks targets.

        * tests/Recursive_Mutex_Test.cpp: 50 iterations instead of 100
          on Chorus.

        * include/makeinclude/platform_chorus_ghs.GNU: added -G to
          LDFLAGS.

        * tests/run_tests.sh: added capability for executing the tests
          on a remote (Chorus) target.

        * examples/System_V_IPC/Makefile: added clean and realclean targets
          for VXWORKS.

        * Makefile: cd .. before tagging.

Thu Mar 05 12:36:52 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.h (ACE_TRACE): Added a missing right paren.

Thu Mar 05 10:04:06 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * include/makeinclude/platform_chorus_ghs.GNU:  this works,
          though it may not be optimum.

Thu Mar 05 01:33:08 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/config-WinCE.h: Added more CE stuff.  Ostream is now
          redefined as FILE on CE.

        * ace/OS.{i,cpp}:
        * ace/Synch_T.cpp
        * ace/Message_Queue.cpp:
        * ace/SOCK_Connector.i: Added ASYS_TEXT to numerous
          ACE_DEBUG/ACE_ERROR macros.  We must use wide char strings in
          CE.

        * ace/ACE.{h,cpp}: Redefined sock_error to return wchar string on
          CE.  Added ASYS_TEXT to debugging messages.

        * ace/Trace.{h,cpp}:
        * ace/Log_Msg.{h,cpp}:  Made it UNICODE compatible.

        * ace/Log_Record.cpp: Changed how ostream is used on CE.  Although
          the code here become some how platform dependent, fortunately,
          it can be shielded out from the users thru various macros.
          Added ASYS_TEXT.

        * ace/SString.h: Undefined friend relations of ACE_?String with
          ostream on CE.  CE doesn't support <iostream>.

        * ace/OS.h: Changed the definition of ASYS_TEXT to use _TEXT.
          This macro can be used with other compiler defined macros
          (e.g. __FILE__.)  Added ASYS_TEXT to adorn parameters of
          ACE_TRACE so we don't need to modify our codes to make it
          portable to CE.

        * ace/Log_Msg.cpp: Removed macro definition of ACE_WSPRINTF.  It
          didn't appear to be used anywhere.

Wed Mar 04 09:32:32 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.cpp (readv,writev): added static cast of iov_len to int,
          to avoid unsigned comparison < 0.

        * ace/Containers.cpp (ACE_Fixed_Set_Iterator::done),
          ace/Map_Manager.cpp (ACE_Map_Iterator_Base::done):
          removed const from static cast to avoid warnings about
          meaningless type qualifier from GreenHills.

        * ace/Basic_Types.i (ACE_U_LongLong): added missing ACE_INLINE's.

        * ace/Svc_Conf.y,Svc_Conf_y.cpp, etc/Svc_Conf_y.cpp.diff
          (svc_location): delete svc_initializer after initializing
          svc_location.  Thanks to Tom Arbuckle
          <arbuckle@uran.informatik.uni-bonn.de> for reporting this.

        * include/makeinclude/platform_linux_lxpthreads.GNU: separated
          SOBUILD into compile and link steps because the
          Service_Configurator/server/* examples are unable to
          use files compiled with -fPIC and just labeled as .so as shared
          ELF objects.  Thanks to Tom Arbuckle
          <arbuckle@uran.informatik.uni-bonn.de> for reporting this.

        * include/makeinclude/platform_chorus_ghs.GNU: explicitly link
          in ioassign.o to resolve _cerr.

        * tests//SOCK_Connector_Test.cpp,
          ace/config-{chorus,lynxos,netbsd,psosim-g++,vxworks5.x,
          win32-common}.h:
          added ACE_LACKS_GETHOSTENT, so that SOCK_Connector_Test doesn't
          have to enumerate the platforms that don't have ::gethostent ().

        * tests/Basic_Types_Test.cpp (main): if ACE_LACKS_LONGLONG_T, use
          ACE_U_LongLong instead of long long.

Tue Mar 03 22:15:16 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Remote_Name_Space.cpp: Replaced a bunch of usages of
          ACE_WString::rep ().  They were passed to ACE_Name_Request which
          creates another copy for itself and nobody ever cleans up these
          memories.  Thanks to John Mulhern <9107@MN3.LAWSON.lawson.com>
          for reporting this.

        * ace/OS.h (THR_DETACHED): Defined this macro so that we can
          simulate detached threads on NT (Hi Irfan! ;-).  Thanks to Andre
          Arpin <arpin@adan.kingston.net> for prividing the use case of
          detached threads.

        * ace/Thread_Manager.cpp (exit): Added detached threads
          manipulating codes here.  We now can simulate behaviros of UNIX
          detached threads on NT (no one cares about their return status.)

Tue Mar 03 15:05:42 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Basic_Types.{h,i} (ACE_U_LongLong::operator *=): updated
          with James Hu's implementation.  Now it's fast :-)

        * tests/Time_Value_Test.cpp (test_ace_u_longlong): added another
          test of operator *=.

Mon Mar  2 19:21:36 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@waltz.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.h: Changed all uses of "/localname" and "/globalname" to
          "localname" and "globalname" to avoid problems on UNIX.  Thanks
          to John Mulhern <9107@MN3.LAWSON.lawson.com> for reporting this.

        * ace/OS.h: Changed "C:\\temp\\" to "C:\\temp" to avoid some minor
          problems on NT.  Thanks to John Mulhern
          <9107@MN3.LAWSON.lawson.com> for reporting this.

        * netsvcs/lib/Log_Message_Receiver.cpp
          (Log_Message_Receiver_Impl): Removed some stray inline keywords.
          Thanks to Russ Noseworthy <rnosewor@objectsciences.com> for
          reporting this.

        * ace/OS.i (sigwait): Added support for POSIX sigwait().  Thanks
          to Russ Noseworthy <rnosewor@objectsciences.com> for reporting
          this.

        * ace/Containers.cpp (done):
          ace/Map_Manager.cpp (done): Corrected some misplaced "consts" in
          the ACE_static_cast macro.  Thanks to Russ Noseworthy
          <rnosewor@objectsciences.com> for reporting this.

        * include/makeinclude/platform_sunos5_sunc++.GNU (CXX): Commented
          out the -pta option since it might not be necessary.  If this
          breaks code then we'll need to reevaluate this change.  Thanks
          to Russ Noseworthy <rnosewor@objectsciences.com> for suggesting
          this.

Mon Mar 02 17:06:46 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Thread_Manager.cpp (exit): Added Win32 thread exit
          functionality. When a thread function falls out of scope, this
          functions is called by ACE_Thread_Control::exit and it will not
          call ACE_OS::thr_exit from here.  Under this scenario, the
          ACE_Thread_Manager::exit simply falls thru the end.  If a user
          call this function directly, this function will delete
          ACE_Thread_Exit::instance() first, which simulate the cleanup
          routine executed when a thread fall out of end by calling
          ACE_Thread_Manager::exit recursively.  After this is done
          (returned from the second call,) this function will then call
          ACE_OS::exit, which clean up the TSS objects and then really
          exit the thread.  Thanks to Gordon Watts <gwatts@FNAL.GOV> for
          pointing this out.

        * ace/OS.cpp (thr_exit): Added Win32 thread exit functionality.
          ACE_OS::thr_exit now will try to clean up TSS objects by calling
          ACE_OS::cleanup_tss.  You really should _not_ calling this
          function directly.  Esp. from the main thread because I don't
          know how to tell if you are calling it from main thread thread
          or not and thus memory leak might occur.

Mon Mar 02 09:13:26 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/config-sunos5.5-sunc++-4.x.h: replaced ACE_PAGE_SIZE with
          ACE_HAS_GETPAGESIZE, and added ACE_HAS_STL_MAP_CONFLICT.
          Thanks to J. Russell Noseworthy <rnosewor@objectsciences.com>
          for these recommendations.

        * ace/config-sunos5.6-sunc++-4.x.h: just #include
          config-sunos5.5-sunc++-4.x.h.  There's no difference between
          the two at this point.

        * include/makeinclude/platform_sunos5_sunc++.GNU: added -R./ and
          -mt to LDFLAGS.  Added -fast to LDFLAGS if "fast" flag is
          enabled.  Thanks to J. Russell Noseworthy
          <rnosewor@objectsciences.com> for these recommendations.

        * include/makeinclude/platform_sunos5.6_sparc_sunc++.GNU: just
          include platform_sunos5_sunc++.GNU.  There's no difference between
          the two at this point.  There is one significant net change to
          the 5.6 platform:  -s is no longer included in LDFLAGS.

        * ace/config-chorus.h: added ACE_LACKS_ACE_IOSTREAM with ghs, because
          its iostream doesn't have separate operators for signed/unsigned
          char.

Sun Mar  1 13:54:02 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * Makefile: Added cvs commands to automatically tag the CVS
          repository with version number 'ACE_9_9_99' tag and 'Current'
          tag.

Sun Mar  1 12:26:13 1998  Alexander Babu Arulanthu  <alex@merengue.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Hash_Map_Manager.cpp (reset_i):
        * ace/Hash_Map_Manager.h:
        Added reset () method for the Hash_Map_Iterator.

Sun Mar 01 10:59:27 1998  Irfan Pyarali  <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Asynch_IO.cpp (cancel): Changed CancelIO to CancelIo.

        * ace/Synch.h (ACE_Lock): Added a virtual destructor to ACE_Lock.

Sun Mar 01 08:38:00 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.h: use the new ACE_DEFAULT_SYNCH_TYPE for the default
          mutex, etc., type, so that it can be set VxWorks.  The ACE default
          type on VxWorks is SEM_Q_FIFO, the same as VxWorks' default.
          The ACE default can be easily overridden in config.h by
          defining ACE_DEFAULT_SYNCH_TYPE.

        * ace/OS.i (sema_init): on VxWorks, use the type argument for the
          sema type, instead of hard-coding to SEM_Q_FIFO.

        * ACE-INSTALL.html: updated Linux/alpha "as" patch.

Sat Feb 28 12:20:57 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Message_Queue.cpp: Fixed the implementation of
          wait_not_{full,empty}_cond() so that they utilize the
          ACE_Time_Value it's passed.  In addition, revised the
          implementation of peek_dequeue_head() so that it uses the new
          wait_not_empty_cond() implementation.  Thanks to Thanks to Tom
          Venturella <tventurell@mdc.com> for reporting this.

Fri Feb 27 15:47:15 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE-INSTALL.html: added very useful information from
          Chris Ryan <cryan@qualcomm.com> about build ACE with
          NT/Tornado for VxWorks.

        * ace/config-chorus.h: use ACE_NEEDS_READV/WRITEV with GHS as well
          as with g++.

        * ace/Basic_Types.{h,i} (ACE_U_LongLong): added a bunch of arithmetic
          operators for Carlos :-)  The operator *= is _very_ slow, until we
          come up with the right way to do it.

        * tests/Time_Value_Test.cpp (test_ace_u_longlong): added some tests
          of the new operators.

Fri Feb 27 13:42:09 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/ACE.cpp (recv_n): Removed the MSG_PEEK flag since it didn't
          seem to work correctly.

Fri Feb 27 11:18:28 1998  Chris Cleeland  <cleeland@lambada.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Log_Msg.cpp: Added three new conversion operators: "%{"
        calls inc() to increase the trace_depth, "%}" calls dec() to
        decrease the trace_depth, and "%$" is used in place of "\n" to
        insert a newline followed by appropriate current indentation.

Thu Feb 26 21:36:27 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.4.31, released Thu Feb 26 21:36:27 1998.

Thu Feb 26 16:48:53 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.h: Added new macros for ACE_FILE_STREAM and
          ACE_FILE_CONNECTOR to be consistent with the ACE_SOCK_* stuff,
          etc.  Thanks to Ganesh Pai <gpai@voicetek.com> for reporting
          this.

Thu Feb 26 11:14:21 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Parse_Node.cpp (ACE_Location_Node): reordered initializers
          to match declaration order.

Thu Feb 26 02:42:57 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Service_Config.cpp (load_static_svcs): Removed explicit
          constness cast from the allocation function.

Wed Feb 25 23:08:44 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/MT_Reactor_Timer_Test.cpp: Made this test compile on
          platforms that lack threads and also updated the programming
          style to be consistent with other parts of ACE.

        * tests/Priority_Task_Test.cpp: Made this test compile on
          platforms that lack threads.

        * ace/Svc_Conf.h: Fixed the prototype for
          ace_create_service_type() to reflect the elimination of "const
          void *".

        * ace/Parse_Node: Eliminated more uses of "const void *" and
          changed them to plain ol' "void *".

        * ace/Service_Types.cpp (fini): Changed the "const void *" to be
          simply "void *" since it didn't seem to make any sense they way
          it was!  Thanks to Stephen Coy <stevec@magna.com.au> for
          insisting on this...

        * ace/config-sunos5.*.h: Moved the ACE_HAS_REENTRANT_FUNCTIONS
          into the section of #defines that should be commented out if
          we're not building a multi-threaded library.

        * ace/Service_Config.cpp (open): Tightened up the comparison of
          the key with the ACE_DEFAULT_LOGGER_KEY to use string equality
          rather than pointer equality.  Thanks to Stephen Coy
          <stevec@magna.com.au> for reporting this.

Wed Feb 25 10:50:17 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * include/makeinclude/platform_osf1_4.0.GNU: added suppression of
          "no corresponding delete" warning, until that is fixed in libTAO.
          Added -lm to LIBS for MT_Cubit client.

        * include/makeinclude/platform_chorus_ghs.GNU: we can link now.

        * ACE-INSTALL.html: added information on Linux v. 2.0.x
          getsockname () bug.

Tue Feb 24 15:07:50 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/test.{mdp,mak}: Added Env_Value_Test and OrdMultiSet_Test
          into the workspace.

          Removed all odbc libraries from all projects.  We don't really
          need them to run ACE.  Thanks to gonzo@ing.puc.cl (Gonzalo
          A. Diethelm) for pointing this out.

Tue Feb 24 07:14:16 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Asynch_Acceptor.cpp (handle_accept): Update the
          event_handler's proactor pointer once it is accepted.  Thanks to
          Jason Katz <Jason@email.rts-inc.com> for reporting this.

        * apps/Gateway/Gateway/Event.h (class Subscription): Moved the
          htonl of total_consumers_ to *after* the loop that uses it!
          Thanks to Jorn Jensen <jornj@funcom.com> for reporting this.

Tue Feb 24 05:08:31 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Asynch_Acceptor.i: Filled in some missing keywords.

        * ace/Log_Record.h (ACE_Log_Record): Hacked it to work for CE.
          Undefined the ostream version of print ().  I'm planning to drop
          iostream support on WinCE.  (Then, I don't have to write my
          own. ;-)

        * ace/ACE.{h,i} (timestamp, format_hexdump): Removed UNICODE_ONLY version.
          Changed to use ASYS_TCHAR to differentiate this condition.

        * ace/OS.h (ACE_OS): Undefined shm_{open,unlink} if
          ACE_HAS_MOSTLY_UNICODE_APIS.

        * ace/OS.cpp (ctime,ctime_r): Added CE implementation.

        * ace/streams.h: Added /**/ between #include and <..> in several
          places.

        * ace/*: Changed ACE_HAS_UNICODE_ONLY to
          ACE_HAS_MOSTLY_UNICODE_APIS.

Mon Feb 23 19:41:53 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Asynch_Acceptor.i (bytes_to_read): Added an inline accessor
          for the bytes_to_read_ field.  Thanks to Jason Katz
          <Jason@email.rts-inc.com> for suggesting this.

Mon Feb 23 12:26:06 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.cpp (sched_params): removed ACE_ADAPT_RETVAL from PTHREADS
          ::sched_setscheduler () call, because it returns the old scheduling
          policy, not 0, on success.

        * ace/config-osf1-4.0.h: removed ACE_HAS_EXCEPTIONS because that is
          enabled by platform_osf1_4.0{,_rcc}.GNU.

        * include/makeinclude/platform_osf1_4.0.GNU: added suppression of
          warning 835 because /usr/include/cxx/memory, line 505, triggers
          a warning about an unreferenced parameter.

        * include/makeinclude/platform_osf1_4.0{,_rcc}.GNU: added
          "exceptions = 1" so that ACE exception handling can be
          disabled on the make command line.

Mon Feb 23 11:27:10 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.4.30, released Mon Feb 23 11:27:10 1998.

Mon Feb 23 11:11:18 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Process.h: Define ACE_Process_Options::NO_EXEC as 0 on
          Win32.  It has no effect on NT anyway.

Sun Feb 22 21:37:43 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * include/makeinclude/platform_vxworks5.x_g++.GNU: updated
          comments to reflect that WIND_BASE and WIND_HOST_TYPE
          environment variables must be set.  Thanks to Nanbor for
          reporting that.  Also, set CROSS-COMPILE flag.

        * include/makeinclude/rules.lib.GNU: updated VOBJS so that it
          will build the fancy new TAO/orbsvcs hierarchy.

        * include/makeinclude/platform_{chorus*,lynxos,vxworks5.x_g*}.GNU:
          set CROSS-COMPILE flag.  It's only used by TAO at this point.

        * ace/Svc_Conf_y.cpp: updated based on new Svc_Conf.y.

        * etc/Svc_Conf_y.cpp.diff: regenerated for latest Svc_Conf_y.cpp.

        * ACE-INSTALL.html,include/makeinclude/platform_lynxos.GNU: moved
          LynxOS installation info from its platform file to ACE-INSTALL.html.

Sun Feb 22 21:26:19 1998  James CE Johnson <jcej@chiroptera.tragus.org>

        * tests/IOStream_Test.cpp (server): break out of while loop if
          read from client_handler fails.

Sun Feb 22 13:06:20 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Asynch_Acceptor.h (class ACE_Asynch_Acceptor): Made the
          accept method virtual so that users can override it and do
          things like enforce limits on the maximum number of simultaneous
          connections.  Thanks to Jason Katz <Jason@email.rts-inc.com> for
          suggesting this.

Sun Feb 22 13:22:30 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.h: Moved definition of ACE_MAP_{PRIVATE,SHARED,FIXED}
          down to where every platform can see.

Sun Feb 22 13:06:20 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Svc_Conf.y: Fixed a couple of places where we were
          potentially dereferencing NULL pointers when services failed to
          load.  Thanks to Eric C. Newton <ecn@smart.net> for reporting
          this.

Sat Feb 21 12:44:51 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.4.29, released Sat Feb 21 12:44:51 1998.

Sat Feb 21 11:53:45 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Hash_Map_Manager.cpp (close_i): Remember to reset the
          current size to 0 after deallocating all entries in the map.
          Thanks to Alex for noticing this.

Fri Feb 20 06:36:04 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Timer_Queue_Adapters (activate): added thread_names argument.

        * ace/OS.{h,i} (cond_timedwait): fixed on LynxOS (DCE_DRAFT4_THREADS),
          where pthread_cond_timedwait () expects a relative instead of
          absolute time.

        * tests/Buffer_Stream_Test (Consumer::svc): removed thr_yield for
          LynxOS, now that ACE_OS::cond_timedwait () is fixed.

        * ace/OS.i (mmap): use ACE_DEFAULT_FILE_PERMS on LynxOS for the
          shared memory object.

        * ace/Mem_Map.* (unmap): on LynxOS, write back the shared object to
          the plain file, if the mmap () protection included PROT_WRITE.

        * ace/README: added ACE_HAS_BOOL, which can be used by TAO.

Thu Feb 19 17:59:53 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * apps/JAWS/clients/Caching/*: Reworked and cleaned up these files a
          bit.  Added a test_URL.cpp file.  Notice that these file will
          finally be moved to other directory.

Thu Feb 19 15:52:50 1998  Stanley D Leeson <STANLEY.D.LEESON@cdev.com>

        * ace/Task.{h,cpp} (activate): added optional thread_names array
          argument.

Thu Feb 19 12:55:00 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.h: Added /**/ between #include and '<', Thanks to
          gonzo@ing.puc.cl (Gonzalo A. Diethelm) for providing the
          patches.

Thu Feb 19 11:18:08 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.h: added ACE_MAP_{PRIVATE,SHARED,FIXED}, and
          ACE_OS::shm_{open,unlink}.

        * ace/OS.i: added ACE_OS::shm_{open,unlink}, and mmap support on
          LynxOS.

        * ace/Mem_Map.*,Shared_Memory_MM.h,Filecache.cpp: default share
          value to ACE_MAP_PRIVATE instead of MAP_PRIVATE, to allow easy
          overriding in config files.

        * ace/config-lynxos.h: added ACE_HAS_SHM_OPEN, and map
          ACE_MAP_PRIVATE to ACE_MAP_SHARED because MAP_PRIVATE is
          not supported on LynxOS 2.5.0.

        * tests/Mem_Map_Test.cpp: replace file_size with line_length because
          that's more accurate.

        * tests/SOCK_Connector_Test.cpp: use ACE_DEFAULT_SERVER_HOST on
          LynxOS, and removed #include of sys/utsname.h because it's in OS.h.

        * include/makeinclude/platform_lynxos.GNU: added LYNXOS so that
          other Makefiles can easily know if where building for LynxOS.

        * ace/ACE.cpp (recv_n): commented out the MSG_PEEK flag check because
          it caused IOStream_Test to not terminate.

        * ace/Env_Value_T.{h,i}: moved ACE_Convert specializations from .i
          file to .h file, because the resulted in multiple instantiations
          with ACE_INLINE disabled, and missing specializations without
          ACE_HAS_TEMPLATES_REQUIRE_SOURCE and inlining enabled.

        * tests/TSS_Test.cpp: weakened to work with LynxOS.  It has a very
          limited number of keys, maybe 16, and can't free them.  And, the
          test always core dumps if we try to request more keys than it has
          available.

        * tests/run_tests.sh: disabled some tests on LynxOS.

Thu Feb 19 10:41:05 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/SOCK.cpp (open): It appears that we don't need to do
          SO_REUSEADDR if protocol_family != PF_UNIX.  Thanks to Chuck
          Gehr <gehr@sweng.stortek.com> for reporting this.

Wed Feb 18 22:34:40 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * examples/Reactor/Dgram/Dgram.dsw:
        * examples/Reactor/Dgram/Dgram.dsp:
        * examples/Reactor/Dgram/CODgram.dsp: Newly added files for NT.

        * examples/Reactor/Dgram/Dgram.cpp:
        * examples/Reactor/Dgram/CODgram.cpp: Made them runnable on NT.

        * ace/Process.h (ACE_Process_Options): Changed the definition of
          ACE_Process_Options::NO_EXEC to 0 for Win32 because it doesn't
          mean anything on NT (you must exec a new program on NT, no fork
          syntax available.)  With this, we can simulate the fork effect
          more or less (still not portable thou.  See
          examples/Reactor/Dgram/ for some examples.)

Wed Feb 18 16:07:14 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu>

        * netsvcs/lib/Log_Message_Receiver.cpp (log_output): There was a
          problem where "outputfile" can be NULL, which causes problems
          when it is dereferenced.  Thanks to Stephen Coy
          <stevec@magna.com.au> for reporting this.

        * ace/ACE.cpp (ldfind): modified the code to allow it to
          consistently return a status indicating whether or not a
          potential shared library file was found.  Thanks to Patrick
          J. McNerthney <pat@thememedia.com> for reporting this.

Wed Feb 18 15:30:48 1998  Carlos O'Ryan  <coryan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * include/makeinclude/rules.lib.GNU:
          Now we can create libraries with some files in
          subdirectories. Though the Makefile still needs to set VPATH.

Wed Feb 18 12:22:48 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/Buffer_Stream_Test.cpp (Consumer::svc): added a
          thr_yield so that the test magically works on LynxOS.
          ACE_OS::cond_timedwait is busted on LynxOS, we're investigating it.

Wed Feb 18 11:53:00 1998  Carlos O'Ryan  <coryan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * bin/auto_compile:
          Added netsvcs to auto_compile list.

Tue Feb 17 18:27:15 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.4.28, released Tue Feb 17 18:27:15 1998.

Tue Feb 17 17:59:32 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * examples/Reactor/Multicast/Multicast.dsw:
        * examples/Reactor/Multicast/client.dsp:
        * examples/reactor/multicast/server.dsp: New project files.

Tue Feb 17 15:53:41 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/ACE.cpp (recv_n): Added a check to drop out if the MSG_PEEK
          flag is set!  Thanks to Keith Brown <kalbrown@ix.netcom.com> for
          reporting this.

Tue Feb 17 12:56:24 1998  Chris Cleeland  <cleeland@cs.wustl.edu>

        * include/makeinclude/wrapper_macros.GNU: Broke the "purify"
        command out of PRELINK into its own variable: PURELINK.  This was
        done to quiet purify when building shared libraries.  It wasn't
        possible simply to remove the PRELINK reference from SOLINK.cc
        because PRELINK is also used for specifying quantify.

        Also added two new variables: PURE_CACHE_DIR and
        PURE_CACHE_BASE_DIR.  PURE_CACHE_DIR is the value of the
        purify/quantify '-cache-dir=' option, and PURE_CACHE_BASE_DIR is
        used as the base directory to build a user/compiler-specific cache
        directory.  In general, you probably want to use them like this:
        "make PURE_CACHE_BASE_DIR=~/mypurecache", which will end up
        creating the directory ~/mypurecache-<username>-<compiler>.

Tue Feb 17 09:23:05 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.h: there were two SIGCHLD #defines, if it was not
          already #defined.  I changed the second one to be SIGCLD instead.

        * ace/config-linux-common.h: removed ACE_LACKS_TCP_H on alpha because
          it's not necessary with glibc-2.0.6.

Tue Feb 17 08:41:06 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.h (ACE_PROPER_SINGLETON_INSTANTIATION): Changed spelling
          of SINGLETONE to SINGLETON.  Thanks to Mark Maris
          <maris@scgp.com> for reporting this.

Tue Feb 17 07:41:32 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.4.27, released Tue Feb 17 07:41:32 1998.

Tue Feb 17 03:32:30 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/ACE.*: Changes for Windows CE just keeps going and going and
          going...  All following functions are member functions of class
          ACE.

          This member funcion has wchar version _only_ when
          ACE_HAS_UNICODE_ONLY is defined:

                       timestamp

          I've added wchar version of the following member functions:

                       strecpy
                       strsplit_r
                       strrepl
                       basename
                       execname
                       format_hexdump

          These functions are not defined on CE because they make no sense
          on CE.

                       strenvdup
                       daemonize

          There is no stdin defined on CE.  Before we implement a stdin
          for CE, these functions don't make any sense.

                       read_adapter
                       register_stdin_handler
                       remove_stdin_handler

          Changing these functions to UNICODE will need to change the
          svc.conf parser.  Therefore, I'll leave them to a later point.

                       ldopen
                       ldfind

        * ace/README: Added a new directive ACE_HAS_UNICODE_ONLY which
          indicates that most APIs must use wchar instead of char.  (Note
          that on WinCE, only WinSock functions use the traditional char
          interfaces.  Most other functions only support wchar
          interfaces, include str* functions.)

Mon Feb 16 14:57:26 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/Priority_Task_Test.cpp (open): fallback to minimum
          ACE_SCHED_OTHER priority instead of 0.

        * tests/Priority_Task_Test.cpp (open): suppress warning message
          about retrying task activation with fallback priority unless -d
          option is specified.

        * ace/High_Res_Timer.cpp: initialize global_scale_factor_ to 1 if
          ACE_HAS_{,AIX_}HI_RES_TIMER and ACE_WIN32 are not defined.
          Thanks to Robert Olson <olson@mcs.anl.gov> for reporting a
          problem with bad hires time values on Irix.

Mon Feb 16 10:51:28 1998  Oliver Kellogg <Oliver.Kellogg@vs.dasa.de>

        * include/makeinclude/platform_osf1_4.0_rcc.GNU: added this
          new platform file for Rational rcc (2.4.1) on DU 4.0.

        * ace/config-osf1-4.0.h: added ACE_LACKS_SIGNED_CHAR to
          RATIONAL section.

        * ace/OS.h: added __rational__ to list of users of long
          ACE_UNUSED_ARG.

        * ace/OS.i (gethostbyname_r): added some ACE_UNUSED_ARGs for
          Digital Unix.

Sun Feb 15 16:32:52 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * netsvcs/clients/Naming/Client/svc.conf: Removed "-s" flag, which
          set the database name for local namespce.  This was causing
          grief if users forgot to set this environment variable.  Thanks
          to Johannes Gutleber <Johannes.Gutleber@cern.ch> for reporting
          this.

Sun Feb 15 15:55:47 1998  Darrell Brunsch <brunsch@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Timer_Hash_T.{cpp,h}: Timer Hash wasn't keeping the earliest
          node pointer up to date with cancels.

Sat Feb 14 21:12:52 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Synch_T.h (class ACE_Guard): this->acquire() already sets
          the owner, so we don't need to do it in the constructor.

Sat Feb 14 20:57:59 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * netsvcs/lib/Log_Message_Receiver.{h,cpp} (log_output): Added this to
          all receiver classes.  It allows writing messages to a user
          specified ostream.

        * netsvcs/lib/Server_Logging_Handler_T.cpp
          (handle_logging_record): * netsvcs/lib/Client_Logging_Handler.cpp
          (send): Use the above change to avoid missing data on NT.  Thanks
          to Greg White <gwhite@northlink.com> for providing the fix.

Sat Feb 14 18:34:37 1998  Darrell Brunsch <brunsch@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Timer_{Wheel,Hash}_T.cpp: Fixed a bug with earliest time
          pointers not being set correctly.  Thanks to Mark Evans
          <mark.evans@tandem.com> for reporting this.

        * tests/Timer_Queue_Test.cpp: Added a quick test to check to
          make sure the earliest time is reported correctly.

Sat Feb 14 18:28:19 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/SOCK_Dgram_Mcast.cpp (subscribe): Fixed a problem with the
          ACE_SOCK_Dgram_Mcast subscription method.  Originally, each time
          the ACE_SOCK_Dgram_Mcast subscribe() method was invoked, it
          created a new socket, did appropriate setsockopt calls
          (e.g. SO_USEPORT), did a bind() to that socket, and then did the
          setsockopt call that actually joins the mcast group.  The
          problem with this was that is wasn't possible to a single socket
          to subscribe to more than one multicast group.  Multiple calls
          to ACE_SOCK_Dgram_Mcast.subscribe() didn't work because the new
          socket descriptor that was issued didn't listen to the old
          multicast group(s).  The fix was to change the subscribe()
          method to only create, set up, and bind the socket if
          get_handle() == ACE_INVALID_HANDLE.  Thanks to Dave Meyer
          <dmeyer@std.saic.com> for reporting this.

Sat Feb 14 03:29:50 1998  Sergio Flores  <sergio@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/ACE.cpp (set_handle_limit): Fixed a couple of bugs setting
          the maximum number of file descriptors.  If we use setrlimit, we
          should first get the hard limit before calling it, or we get an
          EINVAL for trying to set a hard limit of 0 and a soft limit
          greater than that.  Also, for -1 the call was not setting the
          limit to the maximum allowable.

        * ace/OS.h (ACE_MAX_DGRAM_SIZE): Moved the #define
          ACE_MAX_DGRAM_SIZE from the PSOS specific part of OS.h.

Fri Feb 13 19:25:55 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Log_Record.cpp (ACE_Log_Record): Changed the "set" method
          for priority() so that it doesn't convert the priority into the
          base two logarithm of the parameter.  Instead, this is handled
          by the "get" method of priority().  Thanks to Eric C. Newton
          <ecn@smart.net> for reporting this.

        * ace/OS.h: Added a new #define called ACE_MAX_DGRAM_SIZE, which
          is set to 8k by default.  Naturally, this can be overwritten in
          platform-specific config.h files.

Fri Feb 13 10:40:36 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.4.26, released Fri Feb 13 10:40:36 1998.

Thu Feb 12 14:33:12 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.i (mktemp): I missed this one in Win32 section.

Fri Feb 13 09:04:13 1998  Oliver Kellogg <Oliver.Kellogg@vs.dasa.de>

        * ace/config-osf1-4.0.h: added Rational RCC support.

Wed Feb 11 09:50:27 1998  Steve Huston  <shuston@riverace.com>

        * ace/config-dgux-4.x-ghs.h
        * include/makeinclude/platform_dgux4_ghs.GNU: Configs for ACE on
          DG/UX 4 using Green Hills Multi C++ compiler, and draft 10 pthreads.

        * ace/README
        * ace/OS.h:  New macro ACE_NEEDS_SCHED_H for platforms which needs to
          #include <sched.h> to get complete defs for thread scheduling.

        * ace/OS.cpp: Added a DG/UX-specific pthread_wait function for use with
          draft 10 pthreads on DG/UX.

Wed Feb 11 09:32:10 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE-INSTALL.html: updated DU CXX and Linux info.

        * ace/Makefile: moved INSTALL= to before include of rules.local.GNU,
          so that the (unused) install command doesn't show up with make -n.

        * include/makeinclude/platform_chorus_ghs.GNU: put posix -I before
          stdc -I.

        * ace/OS.h: removed include of stdfileio.h on ghs/Chorus.  It's not
          necessary with the above change to platform_chorus_ghs.GNU.

Wed Feb 11 09:24:51 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.4.25, released Wed Feb 11 09:24:51 1998.

Tue Feb 10 14:58:00 1998  Chris Gill <cdgill@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Containers.cpp : removed unreachable break;

Tue Feb 10 09:34:27 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/INET_Addr.cpp (get_host_name): moved declaration of local
          "hentry" so that it's not seen on Chorus.

        * ace/OS.i (getprotoby{name,number}{,_r}): not supported on Chorus.

        * ace/Makefile: build Select_Reactor.o without -g on ghs/Chorus,
          because it causes GreenHills 1.8.8 to core dump.

        * ace/config-chorus.h: adjusted to work with GreenHills 1.8.8.

        * include/makeinclude/platform_chorus_ghs.GNU: use Gnu ar instead
          of ax, because we don't have a license for ax.

        * Timer_Queue_Adapters.{h,i} (activate): added stack and stack_size
          parameters to match declaration in ACE_Task_Base.

        * include/platform_linux{,_lxpthread}.GNU: removed
          -fno-strict-prototypes from CFLAGS because it is no longer needed.

        * include/makeinclude/platform_sunos5_g++.GNU: added -lposix4, to
          be consistent with the Sun C++ platform file.  Some of the TAO
          tests need it.

Mon Feb 09 18:10:37 1998  Chris Gill <cdgill@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Containers.{cpp,h} : made next () a const member function in
          ACE_Ordered_MultiSet_Iterator<T>

Mon Feb 09 14:52:25 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * include/makeinclude/platform_chorus_ghs.GNU: added include path.

        * ace/config-chorus.h: with GreenHills, removed
          ACE_HAS_WCHAR_TYPEDEFS_CHAR and ACE_LACKS_UNISTD_H.  We'll
          see if --multibyte_chars --wchar_t_keyword work.

        * ace/OS.h: added #include <stdfileio.h> with GreenHills/Chorus.

        * netsvcs/clients/Naming/Client/Client_Test.cpp (handle_input):
          get input from stdin, not ACE_STDIN.  Thanks to Jack Erickson
          <JErickson@exchange.ml.com> for reporting this.

Sun Feb  8 15:33:33 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * include/makeinclude/wrapper_macros.GNU:
        * include/makeinclude/rules.lib.GNU:
        * include/makeinclude/rules.local.GNU: Rename
          ACE_LDSO_Major_Minor_Version_Number to ACE_LDSO_Version_Number.

        * include/makeinclude/rules.local.GNU: Put back checking of
          current directory into library installation rules but with an
          extra check for null ACE_LDSO_Version_Number.

Sun Feb 08 12:06:30 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE-INSTALL.html: added Scott Snyder's egcs 1.0.1 patch, which
          allows netsvcs/lib/Server_Logging_Handler.cpp to build on
          Linux/RedHat 5.0.

        * include/makeinclude/wrapper_macros.GNU: protected ACE_ROOT...
          additions to INCLDIRS and LDFLAGS so they're only added once.
          Thanks to James CE Johnson <jcej@lads.com> for this addition.

        * ace/config-linux-common.h: added ACE_HAS_TERM_IOCTLS.  Thanks
          to James CE Johnson <jcej@lads.com> for this addition.

        * examples/Naming/test_multiple_contexts.cpp,test_non_existent.cpp,
          test_writers.cpp:
          replaced uses of cout with ACE_DEBUG.

        * examples/performance-tests/Misc/basic_perf.cpp,
          context_switch_time.cpp,preempt.cpp:
          divide ACE_hrtime_t by ACE_UINT32, to prevent ambiguity with
          ACE_U_LongLong operator / overloading.

Sun Feb  8 01:45:59 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * include/makeinclude/wrapper_macros.GNU (versioned_so):  Added
          a new directive to allow automatic installing of so libraries
          with version number.  This flag is default to 0.  Put this line,

                versioned_so = 1

          in your platform_*.GNU file to enable this feature.

          (ACE_LDSO_Major_Minor_Version_Number): Define the version number
          to be appended to versioned so libraries (Notice: it include a
          dot at the beginning.)  If versioned_so == 0, this macro expand
          to nothing.

        * include/makeinclude/rules.lib.GNU (INSTALL):
        * include/makeinclude/rules.local.GNU (INSTALL rules): Modified
          installation rules to allow installing so libraries with version
          numbers.

        * include/makeinclude/platform_netbsd.GNU:
        * include/makeinclude/platform_freebsd[_pthread].GNU: Enabled
          new versioned_so feature.

Sat Feb 07 05:51:15 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Synch_T.cpp (ACE_TSS): Changed to use MessageBox on WinCE.
          Because there's no console in WinCE, we can't output warning
          messages to stderr.

        * ace/README (ACE_HAS_UNICODE_ONLY): This new directive is used to
          removed some char version function definitions because it
          doesn't make too much sense to support these function when most,
          if not all, strings in the system are wchar strings.

        * ace/OS.{h,i} (ACE_DEFAULT_LOGGER_KEY): Added wchar definition if
          we are using UNICODE.
          (ACE_SHE_{TRY,FINALLY,EXCEPT}): WinCE doesn't support Win32
          structual exception, so these macros should be defined as on
          UNIX platforms.
          (mktime): Removed this function from WinCE.  Don't even think
          about using them.
          (ACE_HAS_UNICODE_ONLY): If this directive is defined, the char
          version of the following functions are not defined in ACE_OS:

             chdir
             mkdir
             mkfifo
             mktemp
             getcwd
             unlink
             tempnam

          Some of them has wchar version.

          (chdir,mkdir,getcwd): Added wchar version.  Unfortunately, getcwd
          still doesn't work for WinCE.

        * ace/OS.cpp (mktemp): Added wchar version of this function.
          Other changes added.  Please refer to the entry above.  If
          platform/compiler supports this function, then both char and
          wchar versions are defined as inline functions in OS.i.
          (socket_{init,fini}):  Removed leading :: from WSAStartup and
          WSACleanup because these two are implemented as macros on
          WinCE.  Changed to use MessageBox instead of cerr for outputing
          error messages.

        * ace/config-win32-common.h: Don't defined ACE_HAD_P_READ_WRITE on
          WinCE.

        * ace/config-WinCE.h: Defined directive ACE_HAS_UNICODE_ONLY.

        * ace/ace_dll.dsp: Adjusted CE project settings.

Fri Feb 06 15:28:11 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/config-sunos5.5-sunc++-4.x.h: disable explicit template
          instantiations with CC 4.2, because it still does implicit
          instantiation.  We need to figure out how to disable that.
          Then, we can enable -instances=global to get the real
          benefits of explicit template instantiation with CC.

        * tests/Barrier_Test.cpp: updated a comment re. the VxWorks
          task names test.

Fri Feb 06 10:42:22 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.4.24, released Fri Feb 06 10:42:22 1998.

Fri Feb 06 10:30:00 1998  Chris Gill <cdgill@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Containers.cpp: fixed error in
          ACE_Doubly_Linked_List_Iterator<T>::first (void);

Fri Feb 06 08:27:32 1998  Chris Gill <cdgill@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Containers.{cpp,h} : added "first" methods to all container
          iterators: each positions the iterator at the first element
          in the container and returns 1, or if the container is empty
          positions the iterator at a well defined "null" position for
          that container and returns 0:

          template <class T> int
          ACE_Unbounded_Set_Iterator<T>::first (void);

          template <class T> int
          ACE_Unbounded_Queue_Iterator<T>::first (void);

          template <class T> int
          ACE_Unbounded_Stack_Iterator<T>::first (void);

          template <class T> int
          ACE_Bounded_Set_Iterator<T>::first (void);

          template <class T> int
          ACE_Fixed_Set_Iterator<T>::first (void);

          template <class T> int
          ACE_Doubly_Linked_List_Iterator<T>::first (void);

Wed Feb 04 22:23:24 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * include/makeinclude/platform_linux*.GNU: commented out or
          removed SUPPRESS_DASH_G, because it's not needed with hacked
          gas on Linux/Alpha.

        * ACE-INSTALL.html: added some comments on Linux/RedHat 5.0,
          for both Intel and Alpha.  Thanks to James CE Johnson
          <jjohnson@lads.com>, Torbjorn Lindgren <tl@funcom.com>,
          and Oleg Krivosheev <kriol@fnal.gov> for this information.

        * ace/config-linux-common.h: replaced #define of ACE_HAS_EXCEPTIONS
          with a compile time check for egcs, which supports exceptions.
          Exceptions can now be enabled on the make command line.  Also,
          moved some comments on Linux system configuration up to
          ACE-INSTALL.html.

        * ace/config-linux-common.h,config-g++-common.h: moved
          ACE_HAS_EXCEPTIONS #define from config-linux-common.h to
          config-g++-common.h.

        * include/makeinclude/wrapper_macros.GNU: disabled exception handling,
          the default, on g++ >= 2.8.0.  On both Linux/alpha and
          Solaris 2.5.1/sparc, exception handling increased the size of
          libACE.so by about 25 percent.  Exception handling can easily
          be enabled on the make command line or by editing your
          include/makeinclude/platform_macros.GNU.

        * netsvcs/lib/TS_Server_Handler.cpp: instantiate
          ACE_Svc_Handler<ACE_SOCK_STREAM, ACE_NULL_SYNCH> if
          ACE_HAS_STREAM_PIPES, not if ACE_HAS_TLI.  Thanks to Oliver
          Kellogg <Oliver.Kellogg@vs.dasa.de> for reporting this problem.

        * Makefile: made ACE-INSTALL a dependency of release and
          cleanrelease so that it is only updated when necessary.

        * ace/OS.{h,i},README (gets): wrapped with !ACE_LACKS_GETS.

        * ace/config-g++-common.h: added ACE_LACKS_GETS for egcs.  It
          supports ::gets (), but warns about it at link time on Linux.
          The Solaris gets () man pages recommends using fgets () instead.

        * netsvcs/clients/Naming/Client/Client_Test.cpp: replaced use of
          ACE_OS::gets () with ACE_OS::fgets ().

Wed Feb 04 11:07:46 1998  Chris Gill  <cdgill@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Containers.cpp : fixed my "fix" to new_position pointer in
          ACE_Ordered_MultiSet<T>::find_from () - now checks the pointer
          before assigning something to it.

Tue Feb 03 15:11:00 1998  Chris Gill  <cdgill@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Containers.cpp : fixed order of member initialization list
          in ACE_DNode ctor, added update of new_position pointer in
          ACE_Ordered_MultiSet<T>::find_from ()

Mon Feb 02 21:26:30 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/Map_Manager_Test.cpp (test_map_manager): print out
          item.int_id_ instead of local i so that item gets used (CXX
          warned that it wasn't).

        * include/makeinclude/platform_osf1_4.0.GNU: added suppression of
          warning 610, nonoverriding_function_decl.

        * ace/config-chorus.h,config-freebsd*.h,,config-hpux-10.x-g++.h,
          config-irix{5.3,6.x}-g++.h,config-osf1-4.0.h,config-m88k.h,
          config-netbsd.h,config-psosim-g++.h,config-sco-4.2-nothread.h,
          config-sco-5.0.0-mit-pthread.h,config-sunos4-g++.h,
          config-sunos5.4-g++.h,config-unixware-2.*.h:
          migrated to config-g++-common.h.

        * ace/config-sunos5.5-egcs*.h: removed.  config-sunos5.5-g++.h
          now supports egcs, via config-g++-common.h.

        * ace/config-sco-5.0.0*.h: added RCS keyword string.

        * include/makeinclude/wrapper_macros.GNU: support "exceptions"
          make flag on all platform.  If enabled, it adds
          -DACE_HAS_EXCEPTIONS to CCFLAGS.  Not all platforms support
          exception handling, of course, and that is noted in the
          description of the "exceptions" make flag.

        * include/makeinclude/platform_sunos5_sunc++.GNU,
          platform_sunos5.6_sparc_sunc++_4.2.GNU:
          removed -DACE_HAS_EXCEPTIONS, because it's now done in
          wrapper_macros.GNU.

        * examples/Reactor/Misc/test_event_handler_t.cpp: renamed
          ACE_Sig_Handler to ACE_Test_Sig_Handler to avoid collision
          with ACE_Sig_Handler in ACE library.

        * tests/Env_Value_Test.cpp (main): print out signed instead of
          unsigned values.

Mon Feb 02 14:40:00 1998  Chris Gill  <cdgill@cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/OrdMultiSet_Test.cpp: added explicit template instantiation
          for ACE_DNode<int>

        * tests/OrdMultiSet_Test.dsp: new MSVC++ project for the test

        * tests/tests.dsw: added OrdMultiSet_Test.dsp project to workspace

        * tests/run_tests.{bat,sh,psosim,vxworks} : added OrdMultiSet_Test

        * tests/Makefile : added OrdMultiSet_Test

Mon Feb 02 02:42:30 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.h (ACE_NOTSUP_RETURN): Moved its definition to the end of
          this file where __TEXT has already been defined.  WinCE needs to
          use wchar.

          (struct utsname): Moved this definition after all datatypes are
          filled in.  Reverted my previous changed on it.

          Win32 only: Added wchar version of ACE_OS::{perror,fprintf,
          vsprintf,sprintf}.

          Windows CE only:  Undefined some char version function in class
          ACE_OS.  They are of no use on CE anyway.

        * ace/OS.i (fdopen): Added wchar version of ACE_OS::fdopen, it is
          only available on Win32.

          Windows CE only:  Added implementation for c-styled file
          functions.  Type FILE * is mapped to Win32 HANLDE under the hood
          and Win32 API's are used to emulate these functions.

        * ace/OS.cpp: Removed some char version functions and added some
          wchar functions.

Sun Feb 01 15:12:49 1998  Chris Gill  <cdgill@cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/OrdMultiSet_Test.cpp: added an ACE test for the
          ACE_Ordered_MultiSet and ACE_Ordered_MultiSet_Iterator
          class templates.

        * ace/Containers.i (ACE_Ordered_MultiSet<T>::is_empty ()):
          changed to return 1 rather than cause a SEGV when the
          container is in fact empty (the above test discovered the bug).

1998-02-01  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@fennec.wolfpack.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.h (struct utsname): Separated WCE's definition from
          ACE_LACKS_UTSNAME_T bacause VxWorks doesn't have TCHAR type.

Sun Feb 01 12:09:11 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Containers.cpp (ACE_Ordered_MultiSet::insert and find):
          expanded ITERATOR type of second argument, because g++ couldn't
          deal with it.  It can in the class declaration in Containers.h,
          so I didn't change that.

        * ace/config-sunos5.5-g++.h,config-lynxos.h,config-vxworks5.x.h:
          migrated to config-g++-common.h.

        * tests/run_tests.vxworks: disabled Message_Queue_Test because
          it sometimes page faults or hangs the target.

Fri Jan 30 15:35:30 1998  Chris Gill  <cdgill@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Containers.{cpp,h,i} : added class templates
          ACE_Ordered_MultiSet and ACE_Ordered_MultiSet_Iterator
          which respectively implement abstractions for containment
          of and iteration over an ordered set that allows multiple
          identical instances of a given item.

Fri Jan 30 02:42:30 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.cpp (uname): Made it comform with Unicode.

        * ace/OS.h (struct utsname): Changed the internal string type to
          TCHAR.

        * ace/OS.i (gettimeofday): Added Windows CE implementation.

Thu Jan 29 21:02:24 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/config-sunos5.5-g++.h: revert so that ACE_HAS_STRING_CLASS
          is #defined, regardless of g++ version.

        * ace/config-g++-common.h,config-gcc-2.7.2.h: replaced
          config-gcc-2.7.2.h with config-g++-common.h, which will support
          all g++ versions, including egcs.

        * ace/config-linux-common.h,config-sco-5.0.0-{fsu-pthread,nothread}.h:
          migrated to config-g++-common.h.

Thu Jan 29 20:28:30 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.4.23, released Thu Jan 29 20:28:30 1998.

Thu Jan 29 16:17:28 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Log_Msg.cpp (open): Always close down the logger connection
          before changing the setting.  Added codes to allow resetting
          logging endpoint back to STDERR from LOGGER.

        * ace/OS.h (ACE_DEFAULT_LOGGER_KEY):  Changed to localhost:10012
          so it can be used in both netsvcs/lib/ and netsvcs/client/.

        * netsvcs/client/Logger/indirect_logger.cpp: Added code to reset
          logging endpoint back to stderr.

        * netsvcs/lib/Client_Logging_Handler.cpp
          (ACE_Client_Logging_Acceptor):  Changed to initialize
          logger_key_ with ACE_DEFAULT_LOGGER_KEY.

        * netsvcs/lib/Client_Logging_Handler.h: Removed DEFAULT_LOGGER_KEY
          definition.

Thu Jan 29 12:32:32 1998  Carlos O'Ryan  <coryan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * include/makeinclude/platform_irix6.x-sgic++.GNU:
          Added support for debugging, somehow the DCCFLAGS were missing.

Thu Jan 29 10:52:34 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/config-lynxos.h: added putenv () declaration.

        * include/makeinclude/platform_sunos5_g++.GNU: added comment
          about disabling optimization with g++ 2.8.0.

        * ace/config-sunos5.5-g++.h: don't #define ACE_HAS_STRING_CLASS
          with g++ 2.8.0.

        * include/makeinclude/platform_sunos5_egcs.GNU: include
          the g++ platform file, it works just fine.  The net effect
          on egcs is these three changes:

          1) -fno-implicit-templates is included in CPPFLAGS.  That
             option is necessary with the egcs (egcs-2.90.23 980102
             (egcs-1.0.1 release)) that we use to save _much_ text
             space.

          2) Use -G instead of -shared in SOFLAGS.  That way,
             libstc++.so, etc., need not be built.

          3) The compiler is called g++ instead of c++.  I don't
             think this hurts anything.  And Purify knows about g++,
             but not g++.

          These (and any other) options can be overridden in
          platform_sunos5_egcs.GNU if necessary.  See the commented
          example there.

        * ace/config-sunos5.5-egcs.h: added
          ACE_HAS_EXPLICIT_TEMPLATE_INSTANTIATION to match
          -fno-implicit-templates in the platform_sunos5_egcs.GNU.

        * tests/Env_Value_Test.cpp: updated comment to explain why we
          can't use spawn with ACE_HAS_NONSTATIC_OBJECT_MANAGER.  We
          can, in general, but we can't on VxWorks because it doesn't
          have fork ().

Thu Jan 29 10:32:28 1998  Carlos O'Ryan  <coryan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * include/makeinclude/platform_sunos5_sunc++.GNU:
          The posix4 library is needed in some TAO examples.

        * ace/Module.h:
        * ace/Message_Queue.h:
          Workaround HP/C++ compiler bug, it does not support enums inside
          templates so we move them into base classes. Thanks to Sundar
          T.J <tjsundar@cisco.com> for reporting this problem.

Thu Jan 29 10:14:03 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/FIFO.h: Revised the comment at the beginning of ACE_FIFO to
          clearly indicate that it doesn't work portably to Win32.  Thanks
          to Thomas Hampson <thomas.hampson@lmco.com> for suggesting this.

Wed Jan 28 15:36:55 1998  Carlos O'Ryan  <coryan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * bin/auto_compile:
          We can use the top level Makefile on TAO now.

Wed Jan 28 11:59:41 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.i (isatty): Added conversion from a Win32 HANDLE to a C
          file handle. It works correctly now.  Thanks to Chuck R. Gehr
          <GehrCR@louisville.stortek.com> for noticing the problem.

Tue Jan 27 20:32:07 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Message_Block: Added an accessor to retrieve the reference
          count on an ACE_Data_Block.  Thanks to Dave Meyer
          <dmeyer@std.saic.com> for contributing this.

Tue Jan 27 15:09:08 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.i,
        * ace/Timer_Queue_Adapters.cpp:
          When using ACE_CLEANUP_???_POP macros, it was being called with
          argument 1, which should be 0 (don't execute the cleanup).
          Thanks to Arturo Montes <mitosys@colomsat.net.co> for reporting
          argument 1, which should be 0 (don't execute the cleanup).this.

Tue Jan 27 14:56:49 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Basic_Types.*: more cleanup: got rid of ACE_USES_ACE_U_LONGLONG,
          replaced VXWORKS && ghs with ACE_HAS_WCHAR_TYPEDEFS_CHAR, and
          factored out some common #defines.  Rearranged ACE_SIZEOF_LONG_LONG
          and ACE_UINT64 logic so that it works on NT.

Tue Jan 27 08:28:34 1998  Steve Huston  <shuston@riverace.com>

        * ace/Basic_Types.h: Simplified and changed so that the config.h file
          can pre-specify the ACE_SIZEOF_* macros in case the preprocessor
          has trouble calculating them.

Tue Jan 27 06:45:07 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * examples/IOStream/server/iostream_server.cpp: for egcs, use
          ACE_SOCK_IOSTREAM instead of its expansion in the ACE_Svc_Handler
          template instantiation.

        * ace/Event_Handler_T.h,examples/Reactor/Misc/test_event_handler_t.cpp:
          removed special-case support for ACE_HAS_SIGNFO_T, because ace/OS.h
          declares a siginfo_t without it.

        * tests/run_tests.vxworks: enabled Priority_Reactor_Test and
          Message_Queue_Test, because they appear to run successfully now.
          Most of the time, anyways.  Message_Queue_Test occasionally
          pages faults; there appears to be a memory management problem.

Tue Jan 27 02:38:16 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.{i,cpp}:
        * ace/config-WinCE.h: More Windows CE insanities.

Mon Jan 26 13:20:58 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * include/makeinclude/platform_osf1_4.0_g++.GNU: added $(ACELIB)
          to SOFLAGS.  Thanks to Oliver Kellogg <Oliver.Kellogg@vs.dasa.de>
          for reporting the problem with building shared libraries on
          g++/DU 4.0.

        * ace/config-linux-common.h: moved ACE_LACKS_TCP_H so that it is
          only seen on alphas (with glibc2).  Thanks to Edgar Villanueva
          <edgarvil@ix.netcom.com> for reporting this.

        * performance-tests/Misc/childbirth_time.cpp (prof_native_thread,
          prof_ace_os_thread): changed type of local j to int to avoid
          signed/unsigned comparison.

        * tests/Reactors_Test (Test_Task): changed type of member
          handled_ from int to size_t to avoid signed/unsigned comparison
          in Test_Task::handle_input ().

Mon Jan 26 11:35:54 1998  Carlos O'Ryan  <coryan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * bin/auto_compile:
          Added TAO_ROOT to the environment.

Mon Jan 26 10:28:57 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.4.22, released Mon Jan 26 10:28:57 1998.

Mon Jan 26 02:53:10 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.h: Namespace related macros are now ifdef'ed by
          ACE_HAS_BROKEN_NAMESPACES instead of ACE_ORBIX_HAS_NAMESPACES.

        * ace/README
        * ace/config-win32-common.h: Added a new flag
          ACE_HAS_BROKEN_NAMESPACES to deal with MSVC's broken namespace
          support.

        * ace/config-win32.h: Re-enable defining ACE_ORBIX_HAS_NAMESPACES
          for Win32.

        * ace/config-WinCE.h: Temporary file to hold WinCE specific
          configurations.  It will probably be merged with
          config-win32-common.h in some point.

        * ace/ace_dll.dsp: Added WinCE x86 emulation mode project
          definition.

        * ace/OS.{h.i} (ACE_OS): Added Windows CE macros madness.

        * ace/config-win32-common.h: Ifdef'ed out ACE_HAS_SIG_ATOMIC_T for
          WinCE.  Prevent repeat definition of STRICT.

Sun Jan 25 17:31:49 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/config-win32.h: Disabled setting ACE_ORBIX_HAS_NAMESPACES by
          default on NT.  MSVC's namespace support is buggy.

1998-01-25  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@fennec.wolfpack.cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/Conn_Test.cpp: Rearranged explicit template instantiations
          order to avoid errors from egcs.  Thanks to Gonzo for reporting
          the bug.

Fri Jan 23 12:24:05 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.i (sleep): Fixed a typo where tv_sec was being set rather
          than tv_usec.  Thanks to Gonzo for pointing this out.

Fri Jan 23 06:27:51 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/IOStream.h: use std::string if
          ACE_USES_STD_NAMESPACE_FORSTDCPP_LIB IOStream.h.  Thanks
          to Gonzo <gonzo@ing.puc.cl> for the patch.  Also, changed
          DEC_CXX to __DECCXX_VER because that's more accurate.

        * tests/Barrier_Test.cpp: specify thread name and stack size
          on VxWorks.  Thanks to Stan Leeson <STANLEY.D.LEESON@cdev.com>
          for suggesting this.

        * tests/Env_Value_Test.cpp (TEST_THIS): cast val to (type)
          before casting to (u_int), to try to avoid DEC CXX compiler
          warning about integer overflow.  Thanks to Frederic Andres
          <andres@rd.nacsis.ac.jp> for reporting this.

        * ace/config-osf1-4.0.h: added ACE_HAS_EXCEPTIONS, etc., with
          CXX 6.0.  Thanks to Torbjorn Lindgren <tl@funcom.com> for
          the patch.

        * ace/OS.i (thr_kill): removed ACE_ADAPT_RETVAL because
          ::taskNameToID returns the task ID, not success/fail.
          Thanks to Richard Keizer <RICHARD.L.KEIZER@cdev.com> for
          diagnosing the problem and providing the fix.

        * tests/run_tests.vxworks: enabled Thread_Manager_Test and
          Message_Block_Test now that they succeed.  Thanks to Richard Keizer
          <RICHARD.L.KEIZER@cdev.com> for the ACE_OS::thr_kill fix.

        * ace/OS.cpp (thr_create), ace/Thread_Manager.cpp (kill_thr):
          on VxWorks, use strncmp instead of strcmp to check for allocated
          thread ID.

Thu Jan 22 16:34:18 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * examples/Connection/misc/Connection_Handler.cpp (svc): Fixed a
          bug in the example where the global Singleton Reactor was being
          used rather than the object's Reactor.  Thanks to Peter Gross
          <pag@kokako.probita.com> for reporting this.

Thu Jan 22 09:04:13 1998  David L. Levine  <@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Hash_Map_Manager.cpp (ACE_Hash_Map_Iterator_Base ctor):
          added a cast of mm.total_size_ to ssize_t, to try to avoid
          a compiler warning.  Thanks to Brian Mendel <bmendel@mdc.com>
          for reporting this.

        * ace/config-osf1-4.0.h: updated g++ support.  Thanks to
          Oliver Kellogg <Oliver.Kellogg@vs.dasa.de> for the patch.

        Thanks to Tom Venturella <tventurell@mdc.com> and Dave Mayerhoefer
        <davem@lynx.com> (!) for requesting the following three changes:

        * ace/Thread_Manager.cpp: added support for a user-supplied
          thread (VxWorks task) name.  By itself, that means just passing
          the ACE_thread_t along to ACE_OS::thr_create ().  The tricky
          part was then handling the case where the user doesn't supply
          a name.  It would be cleaner if the ACE_thread_t and ACE_hthread_t
          typedefs were swapped on VxWorks, because the ACE_Thread_Manager
          keys off of the ACE_thread_t.  And in addition to being cleaner,
          it would be safer because ACE_thread_t's currently aren't
          guaranteed to be unique on VxWorks.

        * ace/OS.cpp (thr_create): on VxWorks only, use the t_id (task
          name) and stack_size if supplied.  Also added support for setting
          the stack, but commented it out because it doesn't seem to work.

        * tests/Conn_Test.cpp: on VxWorks, assign thread (VxWorks task)
          names to server and client threads, to test that feature.

        * ace/OS.cpp (spa [VxWorks only]): use ::taskSpawn () instead
          of ::sp () so that the task name, ace_main, can be specified.

        * ACE-INSTALL.html: added note about not linked the ACE library
          into every VxWorks executable.  It should work when running
          multiple ACE executables on a target, though I haven't tried it.

        * include/makeinclude/rules.local.GNU: set SOEXT if it was not set,
          so that it's always non-null for make depend.

        * ace/OS.h: #define ACE_THR_PRI_FIFO_DEF on all threaded platforms,
          if not already defined in OS.h or in the individual platform config
          file.  It should be used by applications for a default real-time
          thread priority.

        * ace/config-chorus.GNU: added GreenHills support.

        * include/makeinclude/platform_chorus_ghs.GNU: added platform file.

Wed Jan 21 21:37:03 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Hash_Map_Manager.cpp (close_i): Removed the HPUX_11
          destructor madness by saving the location to be destructed in a
          temporary reference instead of calling the destructor from the
          array directly.  Thanks to Istvan Buki <ibuki@fedex.com> for
          providing the patch.

Wed Jan 21 20:36:43 1998  Chris Cleeland  <cleeland@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.4.21, released Wed Jan 21 20:36:43 1998.

Wed Jan 21 10:39:12 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Task.cpp (activate): for builds without threads only,
          added ACE_UNUSED_ARG of stack and stack_size.

        * ace/High_Res_Timer.cpp: used unsigned constants instead of
          signed, to allow resolution of overloaded
          ACE_U_LongLong::operator/ ().

Tue Jan 20 21:15:01 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.4.20, released Tue Jan 20 21:15:01 1998.

Tue Jan 20 20:31:27 1998  Carlos O'Ryan  <coryan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/test_config.h:
          Changed several buffer sizes from BUFSIZ to MAXPATHLEN, they
          were used for storing pathnames, so the later is a proper size
          for them.

Tue Jan 20 15:54:44 1998  Darrell Brunsch  <brunsch@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Timer_Heap_T.cpp: Fixed a bug that was introduced on
          Sunday because of the non-use of position 0 (we have to
          grow the heap one node early).

        * ace/Timer_Queue_T.{h,cpp}: Added a return_node () method
          which is used to return a ACE_Timer_Node back into the
          control of the Timer Queue after it leaves via
          remove_first ().

Tue Jan 20 15:52:31 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.4.19, released Tue Jan 20 15:52:31 1998.

Tue Jan 20 12:49:05 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Hash_Map_Manager.cpp (ACE_Hash_Map_Manager): Member table_
          needs to be initialized to prevent deleting invalid memories.

Tue Jan 20 11:57:24 1998  Carlos O'Ryan  <coryan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * bin/auto_compile:
          Added several TAO components to the compile list.
          The regular expression for make errors was missing several of
          them.

Tue Jan 20 03:36:54 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Hash_Map_Manager.cpp (open): We should call close_i () to
          ensure previously allocated memory gets release before we
          allocate new one.

Mon Jan 19 22:21:34 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/Env_Value_Test.cpp (main): Added test codes for unsigned
          short.

        * ace/Env_Value_T.i (ACE_Convert): Added conversion function for
          unsigned short.

Mon Jan 19 15:13:47 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu>

        * bin/Makefile: Fixed a problem with the CCFLAGS definition that
          was causing circular macro expansion.  Thanks to Philippe
          O'Reilly <philippe@robot.ireq.ca> for reporting this.

Sun Jan 18 14:32:42 1998  Darrell Brunsch  <brunsch@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Timer_Heap_T.cpp: Problems were arising because of the
          use of negative numbers in the timer_id array of the timer
          heap for the free list.  When the 0th index is in the free
          list, pointers to it will show up as 0 (because 0 == -0).
          This will look the same as a timer_id for the top of the
          heap, and if cancel () was attempted on this invalid
          timer_id, bad things would happen.  To prevent this, index
          0 is now ignored so it doesn't show up in the free list.

Sun Jan 18 18:12:52 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * examples/Service_Configurator/Misc/*.ds?: Added new project
          files for this example.

Sun Jan 18 17:27:52 1998  Darrell Brunsch  <brunsch@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Timer_Wheel_T.cpp: Fixed a problem with Timer Wheel's
          expire().  The problem occured when the handle_timeout() method
          of the event handler used would return a 0.  This causes the
          Timer Queue to cancel all timers using that event handler.
          Because Timer Wheel's expire caches the position of some timers
          that will be expired, it was trying to expire timers that were
          already cancelled.  Now it checks the timer before it expires.

Sun Jan 18 16:08:36 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Thread_Manager: Modified the signature to the spawn_n()
          method so that it's possible to pass in an array of stack
          pointers and stack sizes.  Thanks to Thomas Venturella
          <tventurell@mdc.com> for requesting this.

        * ace/Task: Modified the signature to the activate() method so
          that it's possible to pass in an array of stack pointers and
          stack sizes.  Thanks to Thomas Venturella <tventurell@mdc.com>
          for requesting this.

Sun Jan 18 15:54:16 1998  Darrell Brunsch  <brunsch@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Timer_Wheel_T.h:
          ace/Timer_Hash_T.h:
          ace/Timer_Queue_T.h:
          ace/Timer_Wheel_T.cpp:
          ace/Timer_Hash_T.cpp:  Added pure virtual get_first() method to
          Timer_Queue_T.  Added implementations to Timer_Wheel and Timer_Hash.
          Timer_Heap and Timer_List already had implementations.

Sat Jan 17 23:40:02 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * netsvcs/VCAUTO.MAK:
        * netsvcs/lib/VCAUTO.MAK: Added directory information for easier
          debugging.

Sat Jan 17 16:10:04 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu>

        * examples/Service_Configurator/Misc/main.cpp (main): Replaced the
          buggy use of ACE_Service_Config daemon; with
          ACE_Service_Config::open().  We'll have to fix this properly
          some day, but for now this is the best solution.  Thanks to
          Pawel Roman <proman@npac.syr.edu> for reporting this.

Sat Jan 17 00:42:13 1998  Irfan Pyarali  <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/SString.cpp (substring): Fixed bug.  count should be
          initialized to length and not len_.

Fri Jan 16 15:52:34 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/IOStream.h (ACE_Streambuf):
        * ace/config-win32-common.h:
        * ace/iosfwd.h:
        * ace/streams.h: Applied IOStream patches from James CE Johnson
          <jcej@chiroptera.tragus.org>.

Fri Jan 16 01:42:52 1998  Irfan Pyarali  <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.h: Changed the definition of ACE_CORBA_* macros so that
          on non-Win32 platforms, they will be expand to the nested
          classes. Thanks to Jonathan Reis <reis@minniemouse.cemax.com>
          for reporting this.

        * ace/SString.h: Added the correct export macros.

Thu Jan 15 15:45:48 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu>

        * etc/ACE-guidelines.html: Reformatted this page a bit.

        * ace/Message_Queue.cpp (open): The fix from Slawomir Kuzniar was
          incorrect.  I reverted the change.

Thu Jan 15 12:43:23 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * /: Added a bunch of makefiles (*.MAK) for one button
          make-and-test on NT.

        * Makefile (FILTER): Added filter to remove VC one button related
          makefile from ACE release.

        * ace/ACE_Library.{mdp,mak}: Added Shared_Memory.cpp file into the
          project makefile.

Thu Jan 15 09:12:26 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/Barrier_Test.cpp,Message_Block_Test.cpp,Priority_Task_Test.cpp,
          Reactor_Exceptions_Test.cpp,Reactors_Test.cpp,Thread_Mutex_Test.cpp:
          (main): changed some local variables from int to size_t to avoid
          signed/unsigned comparison.

        * ace/OS.i,config-linux-common.h,README: aded ACE_HAS_SOCKLEN_T
          support for Linux/glibc2, which has a socklen_t type.

        * include/makeinclude/rules.local.GNU (depend.local): produce all 4
          combinations of .obj, .shobj, .o, and .so dependency targets.  This
          should take care of the problem of not rebuilding when a dependency
          has changed, after we regenerate all the Makefiles.

        * include/makeinclude/rules.local.GNU (depend.local): removed the sed
          rule that wiped out each Makefile line ending with :.  I don't know
          why that rule was there.  With it, if a Makefile had a target such
          as clean:, it got deleted.  Not any more.

        * many Makefiles: updated dependences with revised depend.local.

        * bin/g++dep: added lib/g++-include path to gcc -MM invocation, so
          that gcc can find all of its headers.  (It didn't help to replace
          gcc with g++, though I would have expected that to solve the
          problem.)

        * ace/Timer_Heap_T.cpp (get_first): fixed ACE_TRACE id string.

        * apps/Gateway/Gateway/Concrete_Connection_Handlers.cpp,
        * apps/Gateway/Peer/Peer.cpp (recv):
          changed type of HEADER_SIZE to size_t to avoid signed/unsigned
          comparison.

Wed Jan 14 20:41:35 1998  Carlos O'Ryan  <coryan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Signal.i (is_member):
          Fixed typo in new cast, the type is sigset_t not sigset.

Wed Jan 14 20:27:44 1998    <coryan@MILONGA>

        * ace/OS.h:
          The new location for AF_ANY and AF_FILE was in the middle of a
          big #if !ACE_WIN32, hence it was not working for NT, I moved it
          further down and now NT is happy.

Wed Jan 14 19:01:59 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Message_Queue.cpp (open): In Message_Queue::open
          deactivated_ flag is being set to 0 instead of
          WAS_INACTIVE. This is causing incorrect return value from
          first-time call to activate().  Thanks to Slawomir Kuzniar
          <kuzniar@Bear.COM> for reporting this.

        * ace/Signal.i (is_member): Added an ACE_const_cast().  Thanks to
          Oleg Krivosheev <kriol@fnal.gov> for reporting this.

Wed Jan 14 06:45:52 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.i: Fixed typo in ACE_Time_Value::operator const timeval *
          definition.  (select's): cast the ACE_Time_Value to a
          const timeval * and then to a timeval * so that they will
          compile.

        * tests/Time_Value_Test.cpp (test_ace_u_longlong): made divisors of
          operator/ tests explicitly unsigned, to avoid overloading problems
          now that there are two division operators.

Tue Jan 13 16:31:48 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.i: Changed the signature of ACE_Time_Value::operator
          timeval *() to return operator const timeval *().  Thanks to
          Oleg Krivosheev <kriol@fnal.gov> for reporting this.  Changed
          several other unsafe casts to use the ACE_const_cast() macro.

Tue Jan 13 13:30:23 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Profile_Timer.cpp (elapsed_time): use floating point
          arithmetic for real_time calculation, in case delta_t is
          less than ACE_ONE_SECOND_IN_NSECS (and for more precision
          otherwise).  Thanks to Brian Mendel for tripping over this.

        * ace/Basic_Types.{h,i} (ACE_U_LongLong): added
          operator/ (const double).

        * ace/OS.h: moved definition of AF_FILE, etc., to _after_ the
          #include of sys/socket.h.  That way, the #ifndef AF_FILE
          protection will work properly on Linux/glib2.  Thanks to
          Amos Shapira <amos@gezernet.co.il> for breaking silence and
          reporting this.

Mon Jan 12 20:19:54 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/SString.i: Replaced all uses of NULL with 0 since NULL
          causes problems with some lame C++ compilers.

        * ace/SString.i: Moved one of the inline find() methods down
          so that GCC doesn't complain anymore.

        * tests/Reactor_Timer_Test.cpp (main): Changed long i to size_t i
          to be consistent.

        * ace/Select_Reactor.h: Updated the explanation of how the
          ACE_Select_Reactor_Token works.  Thanks to Detlef Becker for
          explaining this in great detail.

        * tests/test_config.h: Changed the type of all the consts to
          size_t rather than int.  This may cause a bit of upheaval at
          first since we'll need to fix some other types.  But it's the
          "Right Thing"[TM] to do.

Mon Jan 12 18:31:23 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * Start renaming MSVC 4.2 workspace/makefile names.

        * apps/Gateway/Peer/Peer4.{mdp,mak}:
        * apps/Gateway/Gateway/Gateway4.{mdp,mak}: Made them in synch with
          VC 5.0's status.

Mon Jan 12 12:30:34 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/config-linux-common.h: moved
          ACE_LACKS_STATIC_DATA_MEMBER_TEMPLATES so that it isn't used
          with egcs.  Thanks to Gonzo for testing this.

        * tests/Service_Config.test: changed type of VARIETIES to u_int to
          avoid signed/unsigned comparison in main.  Thanks to Gonzo for
          reporting this.

        * ace/config-linux-common.h: added ACE_HAS_TEMPLATE_TYPEDEFS and
          ACE_HAS_TYPENAME_KEYWORD.  Thanks to Oleg Krivosheev
          <kriol@fnal.gov> for reporting these.

        * ace/config-vxworks5.x.h: merged the two VxWorks configs (g++ and
          ghs) into this new config for easier maintenance.  Added
          ACE_THR_PRI_FIFO_DEF, set to 6.

        * tests/Reactor_Timer_Test.cpp (main): cast i to u_long to avoid
          signed/unsigned comparison.

Sun Jan 11 23:02:07 1998  Irfan Pyarali  <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/SString_Test.cpp (main): Removed the "silly" strings from
          the tests.  They are annoying and cause memory leaks.

Sun Jan 11 22:16:28 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nw1@cs.wustl.edu>

        * apps/Gateway/Peer/Peer.{h,cpp} (transmit): Changed the function
          to return the result of transmission.
          (transmit_stdin): Make sure the function returns proper results
          of transmission.

Sun Jan 11 16:18:15 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.4.18, released Sun Jan 11 16:18:15 1998.

Sun Jan 11 00:00:26 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu>

        * apps/Gateway/Gateway/Gateway.cpp (parse_connection_config_file):
          Fixed a typo, == should be =.  Thanks to David Levine for
          reporting this.

        * apps/Gateway/Peer/Peer.cpp (recv),
          apps/Gateway/Gateway/Concrete_Connection_Handlers.cpp (recv):
          Added a cast to remove a GCC warning about signed/unsigned
          comparisons.  Thanks to David Levine for reporting this.

        * ace/Log_Msg.cpp (log): Made a minor change to move where the
          message is copied from thread-specific storage into the transfer
          buffer.  Thanks to Patrick J. McNerthney <pat@thememedia.com>
          for reporting this.

        * apps/Gateway/Peer/Peer: Added new logic to transmit subscription
          requests to the Gateway.

        * apps/Gateway/Gateway/Event.h (class Event_Header): Make sure
          that we correctly encode/decode the connection_id.

Sat Jan 10 18:17:06 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu>

        * apps/Gateway/Gateway/Event.h: Added the event priority_ field to
          the Event_Key.  We don't currently use this, but we may some
          day.

        * apps/Gateway/Gateway/Concrete_Connection_Handlers.cpp (put):
          Changed the forward() method to process() since our new scheme
          will need to do more than just forward, e.g., it will need to
          handle subscriptions.

        * apps/Gateway/Gateway/Connection_Handler: Made the accessors
          const member functions and also added accessors for the
          Event_Channel * so this can be set by the
          Connection_Handler_Acceptor::accept_svc_handler() method.

        * apps/Gateway/Gateway/Connection_Handler: Added mutators so that
          we can set the local and remote addresses outside of the
          constructor.

        * apps/Gateway/Gateway/Options: Added a connection_id() accessor
          to set/get the connection id.  This makes it possible to allow
          Peers to connection with the Gateway.

        * apps/Gateway/Gateway/Gateway.cpp (parse_connection_config_file):
          Added a sanity check to ensure that the connection ids start at
          1 and increment by 1.

Sat Jan 10 22:37:37 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/SString.i (find): changed type of local i to size_t to
          avoid signed/unsigned comparison.

Sat Jan 10 14:57:01 1998    <coryan@MILONGA>

        * ace/Env_Value_T.h:
          The return value for the assignment operator had no template
          parameter, ditto for the arguments of the copy constructor and
          the already mentioned operator.

Sat Jan 10 13:20:08 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nw1@cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/Conn_Test.cpp: Moved template instantiation codes around
          to avoid warnings.

Sat Jan 10 01:36:08 1998  Irfan Pyarali  <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/SString: Made the following changes to make the ACE string
          class look more like the STL string class:

          - Added npos to all classes.

          - Added non-const reference operator[].

          - Changed operator= and operator+= to return *this.

          - Added STL like find and rfind routines

          - Made the three classes be a similar as possible.

          - Changed the implementation of strstr to use the C library
            strstr function.

          - Added constructors from single characters.

          - Made substring a const method.

Fri Jan  9 19:11:39 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nw1@cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/Map_Manager_Test.cpp (test_hash_map_manager): Added
          ACE_UNUSED_ARG to eliminate warnings.

        * ace/Hash_Map_Manager.cpp (rbegin): Added more static cast to
          eliminate warning messages.

Fri Jan  9 11:35:53 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu>

        * examples/Service_Configurator/IPC-tests/server/server_test.cpp:
          Fixed a syntax error.  Thanks to John Mulhern
          <9107@MN3.LAWSON.lawson.com> for reporting this.

        * ace/Log_Msg.cpp (log): Changed abort_prog == 0 to abort_prog so
          that STDERR would be printed correctly.

        * ACE-categories: Added all the ACE files into the ACE-categories
          listing.  Thanks to Andres Kruse for motivating this.

        * include/makeinclude/platform_sunos5_egcs.GNU (CXX): Removed
          -pipe from CC and CXX.  It was already in CCFLAGS.

Fri Jan 09 11:56:44 1998  Irfan Pyarali  <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/config-win32.h (ACE_ORBIX_HAS_NAMESPACES): By default, you
          will get the proper namespace usage for Orbix.  If you don't
          like this, comment out the #define ACE_ORBIX_HAS_NAMESPACES line
          or #undef ACE_ORBIX_HAS_NAMESPACES in your config.h file after
          including this config-win32.h.

Fri Jan 09 07:04:47 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * include/makeinclude/platform_sunos5_g++.GNU: removed
          -pipe from CC and CXX.  It was already in CCFLAGS.

        * include/makeinclude/platform_vxworks5.x_g++.GNU: added
          target-dependent support for symbol table extractor, and
          disabled symbol table extraction (POSTLINK) by default.
          Thanks to Keith Nicewarner <knicewar@sanders.com> for
          reporting problems with this on PPC604 targets.

        * ace/config-linux-common.h: added ACE_HAS_STDCPP_STL_INCLUDES
          and removed ACE_LACKS_ACE_IOSTREAM.  Thanks to James CE Johnson
          <jcej@lads.com> for reporting these.

        * tests/run_tests.vxworks: added Env_Value_Test.

Fri Jan 09 00:14:20 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nw1@cs.wustl.edu>

        * apps/Gateway/Gateway/Connection_Handler_Acceptor.cpp:
        * apps/Gateway/Gateway/Config_Files.cpp:  Defined
          ACE_BUILD_SVC_DLL flag.  All declarations of an exported class
          must be declared with the same exporting flag.

        * apps/Gateway/Peer/Options.h: Updated the path of include file
          Event.h.

Thu Jan 08 22:11:57 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nw1@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Env_Value_T.i (ACE_Convert): Added static cast for int and
          short conversion funcions.

Thu Jan 08 21:37:30 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.4.17, released Thu Jan 08 21:37:30 1998.

Thu Jan  8 19:50:43 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Task: Added a virtual destructor for ~ACE_Task_Base.  Thanks
          to Oleg Krivosheev <kriol@fnal.gov> for suggesting this.

        * ace: Added a new config-sunos5.5-egcs.h for the EGCS compiler.
          Thanks to Oleg Krivosheev <kriol@fnal.gov> for contributing
          this.

        * include/makeinclude: Added a new platform macros file for the
          EGCS compiler on Solaris 2.x.  Thanks to Oleg Krivosheev
          <kriol@fnal.gov> for contributing this.

        * include/makeinclude/platform_sunos5_g++.GNU (CXX): Added the
          -pipe flag.

        * man: Updated all the manual pages.

        * ace/Log_Msg: Added changes to allow the logging of custom built
          log records.  The main reason for these changes is to allow code
          to handle the logging of out of memory conditions without
          allocating any additional memory.  Thanks to Patrick
          J. McNerthney <pat@thememedia.com> for this feature.

        * ace/Log_Msg: Added a new method called log_priority_enabled(),
          which returns true if the priority is enabled (gee, is *that*
          what it does? ;-)).  Thanks to Patrick J. McNerthney
          <pat@thememedia.com> for this feature.

        * examples/Service_Configurator/IPC-tests/server/server_test.cpp
          (main): Revised the driver program so that it doesn't create an
          explicit ACE_Service_Config object.  Thanks to John Mulhern
          <9107@MN3.LAWSON.lawson.com> for reporting this.

        * apps/Gateway/{Gateway,Peer}/Options.cpp: Oops, ACE_BUILD_DLL
          should be ACE_BUILD_SVC_DLL, yikes!  Thanks to Jeff Hellzen
          <JHellzen@hwdcsaws.cahwnet.gov> for reporting this.

        * apps/Gateway/{Peer,Gateway}/Options.{h,cpp}: Added a missing
          #define ACE_BUILD_DLL and a missing ACE_Svc_Export.  Thanks to
          Jeff Hellzen <JHellzen@hwdcsaws.cahwnet.gov> for reporting this.

        * ace/Select_Reactor.cpp (suspend_i): The clr_bit call was
          mistakenly made on the write mask, rather than the read mask.
          Thanks to Billy Quinn <ace-users@lads.com> for reporting this.

Thu Jan 08 16:02:33 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nw1@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Hash_Map_Manager.{h,cpp}: Added STL-styled iterator
          functions.

        * tests/Map_Manager_Test.cpp:
        * tests/Hash_Map_Manager_Test.cpp:
        * tests/Conn_Test.cpp:
        * ace/Local_Name_Space.cpp:
        * ace/Filecache.cpp: Added missing template instantiation codes.

Thu Jan 08 11:05:15 1998    <coryan@CHA-CHA>

        * ace/ace_dll.dsp:
        * ace/ace_lib.dsp:
          Added the new Shared_Memory.cpp file to the project.

Wed Jan 07 20:40:45 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.h: protect #define of AF_FILE, because Linux/RedHat 5.0
          #defines it in /usr/include/socketbits.h.  Thanks to James CE
          Johnson <jcej@lads.com> for reporting this.

        * tests/test_config.h (set_output): "if (! test_dir)" instead of
          "if (test_dir)" so the output filename ends up non-null.

        * ace/Shared_Memory.{h,cpp},Makefile (~ACE_Shared_Memory): made
          virtual and non-line.  Added file Shared_Memory.cpp to contain
          the definition.

Wed Jan 07 17:59:57 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nw1@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Free_List.i (add): Only delete freeed item when we hit the
          high water mark, not the other way around.  Thanks to Stuart
          Myles <smyles@wsj.dowjones.com> for pointing this out.

Wed Jan  7 17:46:09 1998  James C Hu  <jxh@cs.wustl.edu>

        * examples/Timer_Queue/Thread_Timer_Queue_Test.h:
        * examples/Timer_Queue/Thread_Timer_Queue_Test.cpp:
        * examples/Timer_Queue/Reactor_Timer_Queue_Test.h:
        * examples/Timer_Queue/Reactor_Timer_Queue_Test.cpp:
        * examples/Timer_Queue/Driver.h:
        * examples/Timer_Queue/Driver.cpp:
          Added virtual destructors to classes that needed them.

Wed Jan  7 16:28:16 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Event_Handler_T.cpp: Reordered the initializers in the
          ACE_Event_Handler_T constructor so G++ doesn't complain.  Thanks
          to Oleg Krivosheev <kriol@fnal.gov> for reporting this.

        * ace/Shared_Memory.h: Added a virtual destructor to the
          ACE_Shared_Memory abstract base class so that EGCS won't
          complain.  Thanks to Oleg Krivosheev <kriol@fnal.gov> for
          reporting this.

        * ace/Event_Handler_T.h: Had to include the *.cpp file into .h
          when ACE_TEMPLATES_REQUIRE_SOURCE is defined.  Thanks to Oleg
          Krivosheev <kriol@fnal.gov> for reporting this.

Wed Jan 07 14:31:34 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.4.16, released Wed Jan 07 14:31:34 1998.

Wed Jan  7 13:38:28 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/test_config.h (set_output): Added an environment variable
          to specify where to put the log directory: ACE_TEST_DIR.  Thanks
          to Keith Nicewarner <knicewar@sanders.com> for reporting this.

        * ace/Service_Repository.cpp (close): Removed a fragment of
          redundant code.  Thanks to Eric Newton <ecn@smart.net> and Alex
          Chan <Alex.Chan@Aspect.com> for reporting this.

Tue Jan 06 17:19:13 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nw1@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Containers.{h,cpp} (ACE_Unbounded_Set[_Iterator]):  Added
          STL-styled iterator functions.  Changed the internal
          representation of ACE_Unbounded_Set within iterators from a
          reference to a pointer.  We need this to compare if two
          iterators are refering to the same set or not.

Tue Jan  6 14:11:54 1998  Carlos O'Ryan  <coryan@swarm.cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/Reader_Writer_Test.cpp:
          Reverted to revision 4.21 since the latest one (4.23) fails;
          thanks to Irfan for this solution.

Tue Jan 06 10:37:49 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.i (rw_trywrlock_upgrade): moved the #if 0 up a bit so
          that it builds on Linux/non-glibc.  For some reason, its
          preprocessor was getting confused.

        * ace/OS.i (nanosleep): convert nanoseconds to microseconds
          by dividing by 1000, not multiplying.  Thanks to
          Mitch Kuninsky <Mitch_Kuninsky@avid.com> for reporting this.

        * ace/config-mvs.h: added ACE_LACKS_LONGLONG_T because MVS doesn't
          support it.  Thanks to Chuck Gehr <gehr@sweng.stortek.com> for
          confirming that.

Mon Jan  5 01:20:51 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nw1@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Map_Manager.{h,cpp}: Made operator == and != and their
          arguments const.

Sun Jan 04 19:45:47 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/IPC_SAP.cpp (enable,disable): moved return 0 at end
          to inside the #endif, to avoid warning about unreachable
          return statement on ghs/VxWorks.  Thanks to Brian Mendel
          for reporting this.

        * ace/OS.i (rw_trywrlock_upgrade): moved return 0 inside the
          #if 0 block to avoid warning about unreachable return statement
          on ghs/VxWorks.  Thanks to Brian Mendel for reporting this.

        * ace/OS.i (rw_trywrlock_upgrade): added ACE_UNUSED_ARG (rw)
          to temporary code.

        * ace/Basic_Types.{h,i},README: replaced ACE_HAS_LONGLONG_T with
          ACE_LACKS_LONGLONG_T.  ACE_HAS_LONGLONG_T was no longer
          being used on many platforms with the scheme in Basic_Types.h.
          From now on, we'll assume that a platform has long long
          (unless ACE_LACKS_LONGLONG_T is #defined), which should help
          porting to new platforms.

        * ace/config-aix-4.{1,2}.x.h,config-dgux-4.11-epc.h,
          config-linux-{common,kcc}.h,config-lynxos.h,config-m88k.h,
          config-osf1-*.h,config-sunos5.*.h,config-tandem.h:
          removed ACE_HAS_LONGLONG_T.

        * ace/config-chorus.h,config-psosim-g++.h,config-vxworks*.h:
          added ACE_LACKS_LONGLONG_T.

        * ace/Basic_Types.{h,i} (ACE_U_LongLong):  fixed operator/, and
          added operator% and operator--.

        * ace/High_Res_Timer.*: changed type of global_scale_factor_ from
          u_long to ACE_UINT32.  Removed some hacks now that ACE_U_LongLong
          has operator%.

        * tests/Time_Value_Test.cpp: added tests of ACE_U_LongLong
          operator/ and operator%.

        * ACE-INSTALL.html: added link to Cygus repo patches.  Thanks
          to Achint Sandhu <sandhu@nortel.ca> for providing the URL.

        * ace/OS.{h,i}: added ACE_OS::putenv ().

        * tests/Env_Value_Test.cpp: use ACE_OS::putenv ().

        * tests/Env_Value_Test.cpp: expect (unsigned long) -10 for
          TEST_VALUE_NEGATIVE converted to an unsigned long.
          Thanks to Jack Erickson <JErickson@exchange.ml.com> for
          verifying that it _should_ return (unsigned long) -10.

        * ace/OS.i (strtoul): on Linux with glibc, use ::strtol instead of
          ::strtoul and cast the result to an unsigned long.  Its ::strtoul
          always seems to return 0 for a negative number, at least on
          RedHat 4.2/Linux 2.0.30/Alpha with glibc 2.0 (0.961212-5).

        * ace/config-linux-common.h: factored out
          ACE_LACKS_SOME_POSIX_PROTOTYPES from glibc and non-glibc
          sections to common section.

        * etc/purify.solaris2: added suppression of MIU from putenv.

Sun Jan 04 17:19:31 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.4.15, released Sun Jan 04 17:19:31 1998.

Sun Jan  4 10:11:53 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.i (rw_trywrlock_upgrade): Temporarily comments out this
          method since we need to finish implementing it correctly.

        * ace/OS.i (rw_trywrlock_upgrade): Fixed a minor bug where we
          weren't releasing the lock correctly if there were competing
          readers.

        * apps/Gateway/Gateway/Event_Channel.cpp (put): Uncommented the
          code that sets the appropriate locking strategy for the Message
          Blocks.

        * apps/Gateway/Gateway/Connection_Handler.h: Made the
          remote_addr() and local_addr() accessor methods return
          const-correct values.

        * build/SunOS5.5/ace/OS: Revised a bunch of #ifdefs so that we can
          selectively enable the ACE rwlock emulation, even if we're
          compiling with ACE_HAS_STHREADS in order to get the native
          Solaris semaphores.

        * apps/Gateway/Peer/Makefile: Tweaked the Makefile rules to fix
          some minor problems.  Thanks to David Levine for showing the
          way...

Sun Jan 04 12:37:02 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/Env_Value_Test.cpp: hacked to work with
          ACE_HAS_NONSTATIC_OBJECT_MANAGER.  With that, it uses ::putenv (),
          which we should wrap in ACE_OS.  Also, expanded TEST_THIS to
          provide a more helpful log message than just the ASSERT output.

        * ace/config-vxworks5.x-g++.h: removed
          ACE_HAS_TEMPLATE_SPECIALIZATION.

        * tests/Hash_Map_Manager_Test.cpp (main): added casts of i->ext_id_
          and i->int_id_ to (char *) to force g++/VxWorks to apply the
          conversion from Dumb_String to char *.

Sun Jan 04 09:51:59 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nw1@cs.wustl.edu>

        * apps/Gateway/Gateway/Options.{h,cpp}: Removed macros to export
          this class out of DLL.  They are no longer needed.

        * apps/Gateway/Gateway/Gateway.dsp:  Updated source file listings.

Sat Jan  3 22:25:15 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * apps/Gateway/Gateway: Changed the name of the ACE_Event_Channel
          class to Event_Channel since this class wasn't a part of the ACE
          library.

        * apps/Gateway/Gateway/Event_Channel.h: Updated the inheritance
          relationship for Event_Channel so that it inherits from
          ACE_Event_Handler rather than ACE_Task.  ACE_Task was
          overkill...

        * apps/Gateway/Gateway: Removed the supplier_id from all the
          files.  We didn't use this anyway and it was just confusing.
          Also, renamed Proxy_* to Connection_* to underscore the fact
          that the Supplier_Handler and Consumer_Handler work atop
          *connections*.  The previous naming scheme was too abstract for
          its own good.

Sat Jan 03 14:16:40 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nw1@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Map_Manager.cpp (ACE_Map[_Reverse]_Iterator): Fixed the
          initial iterator position.

Fri Jan 02 18:43:14 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.4.14, released Fri Jan 02 18:43:14 1998.

Fri Jan  2 17:39:04 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * apps/Gateway/Peer/Options.cpp (Options): Rearranged the order of
          the parameters in the base/member initialization section to make
          GCC happy.  Thanks to David Levine for getting on me about this.

        * apps/Gateway/Gateway/Options.h: Changed DEFAULT_TIMEOUT
          to MAX_TIMEOUT to be consistent.  Thanks to David
          Levine for reporting this.

Fri Jan  2 17:25:05 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nw1@cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/Map_Manager_Test.cpp: Added codes to test STL-styled
          functions in ACE_Map_Manager.

        * apps/Gateway/Gateway/Proxy_Handler_Connector.cpp: Added some
          more explicit template instantiations.

        * ace/Map_Manager.{h,cpp}:  Added back comparison operators for
          ACE_Map_Iterator and ACE_Map_Reverse_Iterator.

        * ace/Token_Invariants.cpp:
        * ace/Token_Collection.cpp:
        * ace/Token_Manager.cpp: Added missing ACE_Map_Reverse_Iterator.

        * ace/Map_Manager.h: Remove unnecessary method declarations from
          ACE_Map_Iterator adn ACE_Map_Reverse_Iterator.

        * examples/Connection/non_blocking/test_tli_connector.cpp:
        * examples/Connection/non_blocking/test_sock_connector.cpp:

        * ace/Local_Name_Space.cpp: Added explicit template instantiation
          for ACE_Map_Iterator_Base.

        * ace/Map_Manager.{h,cpp}: Added a new class ACE_Map_Iterator_Base
          to abstract out most common functionalities from
          ACE_Map_Iterator and ACE_Map_Reverse_Iterator.  Added some
          missing functions to both iterator classes.

Fri Jan  2 12:39:45 1998  Carlos O'Ryan  <coryan@swarm.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Map_Manager.h:
          Another declaration removed from ACE_Map_Reverse_Iterator,
          operator* is defined in the base class.

        * tests/Conn_Test.cpp:
        * tests/Priority_Reactor_Test.cpp:
        * tests/Reactor_Performance_Test.cpp:
          The instantiation of ACE_Map_Manager *requires* instantiating
          ACE_Map_Reverse_Iterator.

        * ace/OS.i:
          Cannot use ACE_ASSERT in OS.i, at least it make SGI compiler
          unhappy.

        * ace/Map_Manager.cpp:
          Several methods for ACE_Map_Manager were not given their fully
          qualified name.

        * ace/OS.i:
          The error code should be stored in errno, not in "error".

Fri Jan  2 17:02:36 1998  Chris Cleeland  <cleeland@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/run_tests.sh: Added Env_Value_Test to the list of tests to
          run.

        * tests/Env_Value_Test.cpp (main): Fixed wrong test for negative
          values with unsigned longs.  Thanks to David Levine and
          Linux/Alpha for finding this.

        * tests/Env_Value_Test.cpp (main): Changed the definition of the
          TEST_THIS macro to be all on one line.  While ugly, this helps in
          locating the line when ACE_ASSERT fails, since allowing the macro
          to have multiple lines skews the line # reported by ACE_ASSERT.

        * ace/Env_Value_T.*: Fixed lots of little bugs that got past both
          g++ and Solaris compilers, but were caught by the ever-skeptical
          SGI compiler.  This included providing a definition for the missing
          'varname(void)' method.

Fri Jan 02 10:12:28 1998  Steve Huston  <shuston@riverace.com>

        * ace/config-hpux-10.x-g++.h: Added #define HPUX_10 to catch OS
          version-dependent code correctly.

Fri Jan 02 07:06:44 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * apps/Gateway/Gateway/Makefile: restored the .obj/*.o targets.
          They don't affect the build of the shared lib and are used if
          the unshared lib is built.

        * apps/Gateway/Gateway/Options.h: added missing , in enum definition.

        * apps/Gateway/Gateway/Options.cpp (Options ctor): reordered
          initializers to match declaration order.

        * apps/Gateway/Gateway/Config_Files.cpp (read_entry): fixed syntax
          error, missing "if" after "else".  Added #include of Options.h.

        * ace/OS.i (rw_trywrlock_upgrade): added ACE_UNUSED_ARG (rw) with
          STHREADS.

        * ace/Synch.i (tryacquire_write_upgrade): only define if
          ACE_HAS_THREADS.

        * tests/test_config.h: hacked ACE_INIT_LOG to work on VxWorks.
          VxWorks gets upset if its asked to unlink a nonexistant file.

        * ace/Basic_Types.*: if using ACE_U_LongLong, #define
          ACE_USES_ACE_U_LONGLONG and use that in the .i and .cpp files
          instead of repeating all of the complex preprocessor tests
          in Basic_Types.h.  Thanks to Carlos for suggesting this.

        * ace/Env_Value_T.cpp: added protection against multiple inclusion.

        * tests/Env_Value_Test.cpp: added ACE_Env_Value<long> instantiation.

Fri Jan 02 00:47:33 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.4.13, released Fri Jan 02 00:47:33 1998.

Fri Jan  2 00:17:04 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * Reader_Writer_Test.cpp: Changed from an ACE_RW_Mutex to an
          ACE_RW_Thread_Mutex so that we can use the new
          tryacquire_write_upgrade() method.

        * ace/Env_Value_T.h: Reformatted the file a bit to conform to
          ACE coding conventions.

Thu Jan  1 12:04:29 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu>

        * apps/Gateway/Peer/Options.cpp (parse_args): Changed the option
          to set the passive acceptor port from -p to -a.  This is now
          consistent with the option for active connector port number,
          which is -c.

        * apps/Gateway/Gateway/Gateway.cpp (fini): Added a call to
          ACE::remove_stdin_handler(), which removes the handler for
          ACE_STDIN so the gatewayd will shutdown cleanly.

        * ace/ACE: Added a new method, remove_stdin_handler(), which is
          the inverse of the register_stdin_handler() method.  However,
          I'm not sure how to make this work on NT!

        * examples/Reactor/Misc/notification.cpp: Removed some
          CHORUS-specific, which should be a no-op with our new signal()
          and sigaction() scheme.

        * ace/OS.i: Enhanced the signal() and sigaction() wrappers so that
          they simply ignore signums of 0.  This means that we don't need
          to special case all this stuff throughout ACE anymore.

        * ace/OS.h: Changed all the #defines for various SIG* so that they
          are all 0.  This way, we can ensure that the signal() functions
          in ACE_OS can correctly ignore these signals.  This should clean
          up a ton of platform-dependent code throughout ACE.

        * apps/Gateway/Gateway/File_Parser.cpp (getint): Added a new
          special-case check for the '*' character, which indicates "use
          the default value for this field."

        * apps/Gateway/Gateway/Options: Added a new option to provide a
          default max retry timeout.

        * tests/Reader_Writer_Test.cpp: Enhanced the test so that it
          exercises the new "upgrade" feature of RW_Thread_Mutexes.

        * ace/{OS,Synch}: Added new methods,
          ACE_OS::rw_trywrlock_upgrade() and
          ACE_RW_Thread_Mutex::tryacquire_write_upgrade() that
          conditionally upgrade a read lock to a write lock.  This only
          works if there are no other readers present, in which case the
          method returns 0.  Otherwise, the method returns -1 and sets
          errno to EBUSY.  Note that the caller of this method *must*
          already possess this lock as a read lock.

        * apps/Gateway/{Gateway,Peer}/Makefile: Removed the $(VLIB) macro
          so that we don't try to build the lib*.a files by default.
          Thanks to David Levine for explaining this.

        * apps/Gateway/Gateway: Added new Options.{h,cpp} files and
          rearranged the program to centralize all options processing in
          an Options Singleton.

        * apps/Gateway/Peer/Options.cpp (parse_args): Changed the
          connector and acceptor options to use a more generalizable
          format.  Now we can set the Consumer and Supplier port numbers
          independently.

        * apps/Gateway/Gateway/Event.h: This is currently where the macros
          from the following bullets have been moved, so they can be
          shared by the Peer and Gateway components.

        * ace/OS.h: Moved the ACE_DEFAULT_{GATEWAY,PEER}_SERVER_PORT
          macros into the Gateway application, where they belong.

        * apps/Gateway/Peer/Options.cpp (parse_args): Changed the option
          to set the passive acceptor port from -p to -a.  This is now
          consistent with the option for active connector port number,
          which is -c.

        * apps/Gateway/Gateway/Gateway.cpp (fini): Added a call to
          ACE::remove_stdin_handler(), which removes the handler for
          ACE_STDIN so the gatewayd will shutdown cleanly.

        * ace/ACE: Added a new method, remove_stdin_handler(), which is
          the inverse of the register_stdin_handler() method.  However,
          I'm not sure how to make this work on NT!

        * examples/Reactor/Misc/notification.cpp: Removed some CHORUS-specific
          code, which should be a no-op with our new signal() and sigaction()
          scheme.

        * ace/OS.i: Enhanced the signal() and sigaction() wrappers so that
          they simply ignore signums of 0.  This means that we don't need
          to special case all this stuff throughout ACE anymore.

        * ace/OS.h: Changed all the #defines for various SIG* so that they
          are all 0.  This way, we can ensure that the signal() functions
          in ACE_OS can correctly ignore these signals.  This should clean
          up a ton of platform-dependent code throughout ACE.

        * apps/Gateway/Gateway/Gateway.cpp (init): Revised the code a bit
          to factor out platform-dependent signal handling stuff in the
          right place.

        * apps/Gateway/Gateway/gatewayd.cpp: Cleaned up the gatewayd main
          program so that it reuses more ACE components and so that it is
          more portable.

Thu Jan 01 18:24:56 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nw1@cs.wustl.edu>

        * apps/Gateway/Gateway/Gateway.dsp:  Added new file Options.cpp.

        * apps/Gateway/Gateway/Options.cpp (ACE_BUILD_SVC_DLL): Added
          #define ACE_BUILD_SVC_DLL.

        * netsvcs/lib/Base_Optimizer.i: Removed this file.

        * netsvcs/lib/Base_Optimizer.h: Added codes to include in the
          source file conditionally if needed.

        * netsvcs/lib/Base_Optimizer.cpp: Moved template implementation
          from .i file.  Removed ACE_INLINE keyword.

        * netsvcs/lib/Server_Logging_Handler.cpp: Added explicit template
          instantiation macros.

Thu Jan 01 17:13:06 1998  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * apps/Gateway/Peer/Peer.cpp (Peer_Connector::open): added
          return 0 statement at end.

        * apps/Gateway/Gateway/Options.cpp (Options ctor): reordered
          initializers to match declaration order.

        * apps/Gateway/Gateway/Makefile: removed LOBJ and SHOBJ macros
          because they're not needed.  And, restored BUILD so that static
          lib will be built if requested.

        * include/makeinclude/rules.lib.GNU: added OBJEXT macro, defaulted
          to "o", and use it in VOBJS definition.

        * include/makeinclude/wrapper_macros.GNU: if building shared libs
          only, set OBJEXT to "so" and VDIR to .shobj/, so that only shared
          objects will be built.

        * apps/Gateway/Peer/Peer.cpp: added template instantiations.

        * netsvcs/lib/Base_Optimizer.*,Makefile: moved inline functions
          to .i file and changed inline to ACE_INLINE.

        * netsvcs/lib/Server_Logging_Handler_T.{h,cpp}: don't use
          Base_Optimizer with g++.  Some versions of g++ 2.7.x have
          trouble with its inline template member functions, especially
          if __ACE_INLINE__ is disabled.

Thu Jan 01 07:56:17 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.4.12, released Thu Jan 01 07:56:17 1998.

Thu Jan 01 00:28:46 1998  Nanbor Wang  <nw1@cs.wustl.edu>

        * apps/Gateway/Peer/Peer.dsp: Added a new file "Options.cpp" into
          this project.

        * tests/Env_Value_Test.cpp (main): Changed variable name: 'environ'
          to 'envp'.  Real OSes don't understand what the word means
          and Access Violations will occur.

        * tests/run_tests.bat: Added Env_Value_Test.

        * tests/version_tests/version_tests.dsw:
        * tests/tests.dsw: Added Env_Value_Test.dsp.

        * tests/version_tests/Env_Value_Test.dsp:
        * tests/Env_Value_Test.dsp:  New file.

Thu Jan  1 00:00:00 1998  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * Happy New Year!  Here's a thought for the new year, courtesy of
          Sumedh:

          Nothing in the world is permanent,
          and we're foolish when we ask anything to last;
          but surely we're still more foolish
          not to take delight in it while we have it.

                  - W.Somerset Maugham (Razor's Edge)

Wed Dec 31 19:10:59 1997  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu>

        * apps/Gateway/Peer/Peer: Added the hooks for making the Peer a
          Connector, as well as an Acceptor.  Now it's time to have some
          fun.

        * apps/Gateway/Peer/peerd.cpp: Cleaned up the peerd main program
          so that it reuses more ACE components and so that it is more
          portable.

        * netsvcs/servers/main.cpp (main): Revised the code a bit to
          factor out platform-dependent signal handling stuff in the right
          place.

        * apps/Gateway/Peer: Factored out some common initialization code
          to create an Options Singleton.  Yowza!

        * apps/Gateway/README: Improved the documentation so that its
          easier to tell what's supposed to happen and how to configure
          the system.

        * apps/Gateway/Peer/Peer: Moved the Peer_Acceptor into the Peer.h
          file and updated the documentation to clarify what's going on
          better.

        * examples/Reactor/Dgram/: Enhanced the examples to make sure they
          close() the dgram endpoint when the object is removed from the
          Reactor.  Thanks to Evgeny Beskrovny
          <evgeny_beskrovny@icomverse.com> for reporting this.

        * ace/Obstack.cpp: Fixed a stupid bug in the ACE_Obstack
          constructor.  Thanks to David Levine for reporting this.

        * ace/Local_Name_Space_T.h: Updated the documentation for class
          ACE_Name_Space_Map to make it more clear.

Wed Dec 31 21:21:50 1997  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * examples/Reactor/Dgram/{CO,Dgram.cpp} (handle_close): added
          ACE_UNUSED_ARG (handle).

        * tests/Env_Value_Test.cpp (main): removed unused arg argv and
          local envargv.  undef'ed ACE_HAS_NONSTATIC_OBJECT_MANAGER because
          it can't deal with the three arguments to main ().

Wed Dec 31 16:25:16 1997  Chris Cleeland  <cleeland@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Env_Value_T.*: Added a new template (ACE_Env_Value) which is
          a typesafe encapsulation of environment variables with the
          ability to provide a value to be used as a default if the
          variable isn't set.  An example of its use can be seen in the
          corresponding test, tests/Env_Value_Test.cpp.  Thanks to Carlos
          O'Ryan for giving me the seed that started this.

        * tests/Env_Value_Test.cpp: Added test for the new template added
          above.

        * tests/Makefile: Added new Env_Value_Test test to the Makefile.

        * ace/OS.{h,i} (strtod): Added new function for converting strings
          to doubles.

Tue Dec 30 22:07:44 1997  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/High_Res_Timer.cpp (elapsed_time): added a cast in
          calculation of useconds to avoid MSVC++ warning about narrowing.
          Thanks to Nanbor for reporting this.

        * ace/OS.i (gethrtime): commented out high-res tick counter on Linux
          because it doesn't seem to work properly.  Use ::gettimeofday ()
          instead.

        * tests/Basic_Types_Test.cpp (main): replaced #ifdef VXWORKS && ghs
          with !ifdef ACE_HAS_WCHAR_TYPEDEFS_CHAR.

        * ace/Map_Manager.cpp (operator*): fixed typo in "ACE_Map_Entry".

        * ace/OS.h: added ACE_NSIG.  In addition, I removed this:

            // Why is this defined?  It must be a std C library symbol.
            #if !defined (NSIG)
            #define NSIG 0
            #endif /* NSIG */

          We #define NSIG elsewhere on platforms (VxWorks, MVS) that need it.
          #defining it to be 0 isn't good; it's better to catch the lack of
          NSIG at compile time than at run time.

        * ace/{Log_Msg.cpp,OS.i,Select_Reactor.cpp,Signal.*,WFMO_Reactor.i},
          tests/Sigset_Ops_Test.cpp: replace NSIG with ACE_NSIG.

        * ace/Basic_Types.{h,i}: only use u_longlong_t on sun.  Added
          operator++ to ACE_U_LongLong, and tweaked calculation in operator/.

        * tests/Time_Value_Test.cpp (test_ace_u_longlong_): added test of
          operator+, and one simple test of operator/.

        * ace/Filecache.h: removed extra , in enum ACE_Filecache_Flag definition.

Tue Dec 30 20:32:03 1997  Nanbor Wang  <nw1@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Map_Manager.{h,cpp}: Added STL-styled iterator function.
          Changed the references to ACE_Map_Manager within interator
          classes to pointers so we can check errors.

Tue Dec 30 14:56:18 1997  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Obstack: Enhanced ACE_Obstack so that it can be given a
          pointer to an allocator strategy.  This allows users to take
          complete control of where the memory comes from for the Obstack.

        * ace/Obstack: Changed the default value of "size" so that it is
          (4096 - sizeof (ACE_Obstack)).

        * ace/Obstack: Added a new ACE_Obchunk constructor to simplify
          some of the code.

Mon Dec 29 20:21:32 1997  Steve Huston  <shuston@riverace.com>

        * include/makeinclude/rules.lib.GNU: Adjusted dependencies on building
          a shared library to be on the object modules it will link in, not
          necessarily $(VSJOBJ).

Mon Dec 29 18:53:35 1997  James C Hu  <jxh@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Filecache.h: Added an enum type, ACE_Filecache_Flag, which
          gets passed into the ACE_Filecache_Handle constuctor to help
          determine whether or not to use memory mapping (on Windows NT,
          we sometimes do not want to memory map).

        * ace/Filecache.cpp: Required modifications to accomodate the
          ACE_Filecache_Flag parameter.

Mon Dec 29 15:37:24 1997  Nanbor Wang  <nw1@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.i (event_timedwait): Added codes to guard against
          negative wait time since we are passing an absolute time value
          here, we may way past the target time when it gets called.
          Thanks to Norbert Rapp <NRapp@nexus-informatics.de> for pointing
          this.

Mon Dec 29 13:57:43 1997  Carlos O'Ryan  <coryan@macarena.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/XtReactor.cpp:
          Fixed syntax error, apparently some kind of typo.

        * ace/OS.h:
          The ACE_*_cast() macros had (IMHO) surprizing priority, added
          some parenthesis to make them behave as the new cast operators
          are supposed to do.

Mon Dec 29 08:59:28 1997  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Basic_Types.h: Linux w/o glibc 2.0 doesn't have u_longlong_t,
          so use "unsigned long long" for it.

        * ace/Task.cpp (activate): added ACE_UNUSED_ARG (thread_handles) on
          non-threaded platforms.

        * ace/Thread_Manager.cpp (wait): added ACE_UNUSED_ARG
          (abandon_detached_threads) on non-threaded platforms.

        * performance-tests/Misc/childbirth_time.cpp (prof_ace_os_thread):
          added ACE_UNUSED_ARG (iteration) on non-threaded platforms.

        * performance-tests/Misc/preempt.cpp (main): added ACE_UNUSED_ARG
          for argc and argv on non-threaded platforms.

        * include/makeinclude/platform_linux.GNU: enabled compiler warnings
          by replacing -w with -Wall -Wpointer-arith in CFLAGS.

        * ace/ACE.cpp (count_interface,get_handle,get_ip_interfaces): use
          same code for LynxOS as for __unix.

        * ace/OS.h: on LynxOS, redefine NSIG to be one greater than the
          highest-numbered signal.  LynxOS' signal.h #defines it to be
          equal to the highest-numbered signal, 64.

Mon Dec 29 08:35:17 1997  Steve Huston  <shuston@riverace.com>

        * include/makeinclude/platform_hpux_aCC.GNU: Removed the PRELIB
          and PRELIB_USES_OBJ_ONLY stuff; merged in macros for building
          on HP-UX 11.00.
        * include/makeinclude/platform_hpux11_aCC.GNU - Removed this file.
          The 10.x and 11.x builds are now both controlled by
          platform_hpux_aCC.GNU.

Sun Dec 28 10:50:54 1997  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.4.11, released Sun Dec 28 10:50:54 1997.

Sat Dec 27 18:03:52 1997  Nanbor Wang  <nw1@merengue.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Log_Msg.cpp (dump): Sould test if we have a valid thr_desc
          before dumping the information of it.  Thanks to Luca Priorelli
          <lucapri@mbox.vol.it> for pointing this out.

Sat Dec 27 16:13:59 1997  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/{OS.i,config-linux-common.h,README} (getrusage,{get,set}rlimit):
          added ACE_HAS_RUSAGE_WHO_ENUM and ACE_HAS_RLIMIT_RESOURCE_ENUM
          support.  glibc 2.0 for Linux uses enums for the first arguments
          to ::getrusage and ::{get,set}rlimit.

Fri Dec 26 18:04:06 1997    <nw1@JIG>

        * ace/Containers.h: Added iterator traits for following classes.
             ACE_Unbounded_Set
             ACE_Unbounded_Queue
             ACE_Unbounded_Stack
             ACE_Double_Linked_List
             ACE_Fixed_Set
             ACE_Bounded_Set
          Thanks to <???> for recommending this.

Fri Dec 26 12:03:05 1997  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/config-osf1-4.0.h: added support for DCE threads, and merged in
          config-osf1-4.0-g++.h.  Thanks to Frederic Andres
          <andres@rd.nacsis.ac.jp> for the DCE threads support #defines.

        * ace/config-osf1-4.0-g++.h: removed.  All Digital Unix 4.0 configs
          are now supported by config-osf1-4.0.h.

        * ace/platform_osf1_4.0.GNU: added comment on how to use DCE threads
          instead of POSIX threads.

        * ace/OS.i (thr_{get,set}prio): don't apply the
          !defined(ACE_LACKS_SETSCHED) test if ACE_HAS_DCETHREADS.

        * ace/OS.cpp (thr_create): added || ACE_HAS_DCETHREADS to
          #ifndef ACE_LACKS_SETSCHED, so that priority is set with DCETHREADS.

        * ace/OS.cpp (sched_params): moved paren so that DCETHREADS block
          will be executed even if ACE_LACKS_SETSCHED.

        * ace/Sched_Params.cpp ({next,previous)_priority): added
          ACE_HAS_DCETHREADS check before !defined(ACE_LACKS_SETSCHED).

        * ace/OS.i (cond_timedwait): wrapped first arg to ACE_OSCALL in
          parens because it confused cxx.

        * examples/System_V_IPC/SV_Message_Queues/{,T}MQ_Server.cpp: renamed
          variable msgque because it conflicted with a symbol in the DEC cxx
          w/DCE threads headers.

        * ACE-INSTALL.html: expanded discussion of gcc config.status file.
          Thanks to Hans Rohnert <rohnert@scr.siemens.com> for figuring
          out the role of the config.status file.

Fri Dec 26 06:44:25 1997    <nw1@JIG>

        * ace/OS.h (ACE_OS::ace_flock_t): Added a new field "lockname_" to
          remember the lock filename.

        * ace/OS.i (flock_init,flock_destroy): We need to remember the
          name of the lock file when initializing the lock and unlink the
          file when destroying the lock.

Thu Dec 25 18:08:42 1997  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/XtReactor.cpp: Removed g++ warning about initialization
          order, enabled read/write masks for
          ACE_Event_Handler::CONNECT_MASK; fixed typo that checks a write
          mask, but sets a read mask; removed unused variable "zero."
          Thanks to Eric Newton for these fixes.

Thu Dec 25 17:17:16 1997    <nw1@JIG>

        * ace/config-win32.h: * ace/config-win32-common.h: Added macro
          definitions not to use C++-styled castings on Win32 by default
          so that we don't depend on the RTTI support.

Thu Dec 25 16:18:03 1997    <irfan@PACHANGA>

        * ace/SString.h (ACE_CString and ACE_WString): Added c_str() to
          make it similar to STL's string class.

Wed Dec 24 19:59:15 1997  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/IOStream_Test.cpp (client): changed stream error message
          from "timeout" to "timed out", so that run_tests.check won't
          complain about it.

Wed Dec 24 18:37:49 1997    <nw1@JIG>

        * ace/Synch.i (get_thread_id,get_nesting_level): Added ACE_INLINE.

Wed Dec 24 18:31:31 1997  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.4.10, released Wed Dec 24 18:31:31 1997.

Wed Dec 24 14:27:33 1997    <nw1@JIG>

        * ace/Synch.{h,i,cpp} (ACE_Recursive_Thread_Mutex): Changed
          ACE_Recursive_Thread_Mutex to inherit from ACE_Thread_Mutex on
          Win32 because ACE_Thread_Mutex is already recusive on Win32.

Wed Dec 24 08:14:32 1997  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Log_Msg.cpp (instance): without threads, dynamically create
          the ACE_Log_Msg instance instead of using a static.  Now, without
          threads, the ACE library has no statics that require destruction
          (at least on Solaris/g++ and Linux).  And, all of the ACE tests
          Purify cleanly.

        * ace/OS.cpp (ACE_Thread_Adapter::invoke): wrapped
          rethrow_w32_structural_exception () call with #ifdef ACE_WIN32.
          It was eliminated by the ACE_SEH_EXCEPT macro on non-WIN32
          platforms, but some compilers (cxx) warned about the
          unreachable code.  This call is only supported on WIN32 anyways.

        * ace/OS.h: LynxOS has ACE_HAS_PTHREADS_1003_DOT_1C, but not
          ACE_HAS_PTHREAD_SIGMASK.

        * tests/Time_Value_Test.cpp: only test ACE_U_LongLong on Solaris,
          and other platforms with STHREADS.

Wed Dec 24 04:25:49 1997    <nw1@DINGO>

        * ace/OS.i (sema_init): Added checking for initial semaphore
          counts and set the semaphore to non-signaled state if the
          initial count is zero.  Changed the internal variable lock from
          a mutex to a thread_mutex (Critical Section.)

Tue Dec 23 21:06:14 1997  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/TLI_Stream.cpp (get_remote_addr): added ACE_UNUSED_ARG
          for the arg if ! ACE_HAS_SVR4_TLI.

        * examples/IPC_SAP/SOCK_SAP/CPP-inserver-poll.cpp (main): declare
          local "i" outside the for loop because it is used after the loop.

Tue Dec 23 19:34:10 1997    <nw1@JIG>

        * ace/OS.i: Added comments for semaphore simulation.

Tue Dec 23 19:33:59 1997  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.4.9, released Tue Dec 23 19:33:59 1997.

Tue Dec 23 19:05:32 1997  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/IOStream_Test.cpp (server): Changed sleep(30) to
          sleep(5).  This seems more reasonable.  Thanks to
          James Johnson for this suggestion.

Tue Dec 23 16:43:14 1997  Steve Huston  <shuston@riverace.com>

        * ace/README: Added descriptions for ACE_HAS_PTHREADS_1003_DOT_1C (this
          was in use previously but not documented), ACE_HAS_XTI (new; XTI is
          the POSIX superset of TLI - this implies ACE_HAS_TLI),
          ACE_NEW_THROWS_EXCEPTIONS (new; the compiler throws bad_alloc if
          a 'new' memory allocation fails).

        * ace/Hash_Map_Manager.cpp - Workaround for an aC++ bug in the HP-UX 11
          version of the compiler.

        * ace/INET_Addr.cpp: Note the failing host name in the error message
          from ACE_INET_Addr::ACE_INET_Addr(u_short, const char []).

        * ace/OS.h: Changes made while porting to HP-UX 11:
            - If ACE_HAS_PTHREADS_1003_DOT_1C (POSIX.1C), it implies (by
              way of POSIX.1C) that these also be set:
                ACE_HAS_PTHREAD_SIGMASK
                ACE_HAS_2_PARAM_ASCTIME_R_AND_CTIME_R
              This is intended to make the process of configuring a new
              new platform easier.
            - If the new config macro ACE_NEW_THROWS_EXCEPTIONS is set, include
              the file <new>.  The "proper" thing to do is to include
              <stdexcept>; however, at least on HP-UX 11, this will cause
              other things to get brought in, like <memory>, which will
              screw up auto_ptr.  The day that all this standard library and
              STL stuff is finally straight, there will be dancing in the
              streets...
            - Support including the proper header file for XTI when it's
              supposed to use <xti.h> rather than <tiuser.h> (POSIX specifies
              XTI, a superset of TLI, to have <xti.h>)
            - If ACE_NEW_THROWS_EXCEPTIONS is set, the ACE_NEW and
              ACE_NEW_RETURN macros handle the exception.

        * ace/OS.i: Fixed check for failure in ACE_OS::sema_init.

        * ace/config-hpux11.h:
        * ace/config-hpux11-hpc++.h: New configs for HP-UX 11.00

        * include/makeinclude/platform_hpux11_aCC.GNU: Platform macros for
          HP-UX 11.  It is set up for 32-bit build with comments for how to
          do a 64-bit build.

        * examples/Makefile: Added Naming to the directory list to build.

        * examples/IPC_SAP/SOCK_SAP/CPP-inserver-poll.cpp: Changed test from
          ACE_HAS_SVR4_POLL to ACE_HAS_POLL.

        * examples/IPC_SAP/SOCK_SAP/C-inclient.cpp:
        * examples/IPC_SAP/SOCK_SAP/CPP-unclient.cpp:
        * examples/IPC_SAP/SOCK_SAP/CPP-unserver.cpp:
        * examples/IPC_SAP/SOCK_SAP/FD-unserver.cpp: Fixed a char * being
          initialized by a string literal.

        * examples/Map_Manager/test_hash_map_manager.cpp: Added #include
          "ace/SString.h"

        * examples/Mem_Map/IO-tests/test_io.cpp: Fixed a char * being
          initialized by a string literal.  Fixed diagnostic statements.

        * examples/Naming/test_multiple_contexts.cpp:
        * examples/Naming/test_non_existent.cpp:
        * examples/Naming/test_writers.cpp:  Added Id line for CVS.

        * tests/Time_Value_Test.cpp: Added #include "test_config.h"

Tue Dec 23 16:12:28 1997    <nw1@DINGO>

        * ace/OS.i: Must use ACE_OS::sema_wait instead of waiting on the
          singling event when using simulated semaphores.

Tue Dec 23 08:32:00 1997  Chris Gill  <cdgill@cs.wustl.edu>

        * include/makeinclude/platform_sunos5_g++.GNU
          Removed trailing spaces from CC and CXX macros
          (the trailing space behind CXX was giving the TAO_IDL
           make fits)

Tue Dec 23 07:26:28 1997  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/TLI.cpp (get_local_addr): return -1, instead of 0, and
          set errno (with ACE_NOTSUP_RETURN) if ! ACE_HAS_SVR4_TLI.
          ({set,get}_option): added ACE_UNUSED_ARfor all
          arguments if ! ACE_HAS_SVR4_TLI.

        * ace/TLI_Stream.cpp (get_remote_addr): return -1, instead of 0,
          and set errno (with ACE_NOTSUP_RETURN) if ! ACE_HAS_SVR4_TLI.
          Declare and set local "name" only if ACE_HAS_SVR4_TLI.

        * ace/TLI_Acceptor.cpp (handle_asynch_event): initialize local
          "event" instead of defining it in the switch condition, to
          avoid compiler warning about not using it.

        * examples/IPC_SAP/TLI_SAP/db-server.cpp (lookup_name): removed
          unused local variable "len".

        * include/makeinclude/platform_osf1_4.0.GNU: removed some warning
          suppressions that are no longer needed.

        * ace/Log_Msg.cpp (~ACE_Log_Msg): clean up the message queue and
          allocated strings on non-threaded platforms.

        * tests/test_config.h (ACE_APPEND_LOG): added a close () of the
          ace_file_stream before opening it.  Forked children inherit the
          opened file stream, and fail on their attempt to open it if it
          is not explicitly closed.

Mon Dec 22 22:42:57 1997  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS: Added a few minor changes to Nanbor's Semaphore
          emulation for WinCE.

Mon Dec 22 11:39:19 1997    <irfan@PACHANGA>

        * OS.i (event_timedwait): Added code to handle timeouts.  Thanks
          to Luca Priorelli <lucapri@mbox.vol.it> for reporting this.

Mon Dec 22 07:03:13 1997  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/IOStream_Test.cpp (spawn): changed printout from
          "Process_Mutex_Test-children" to "IOStream_Test-children".

Mon Dec 22 03:08:22 1997    <nw1@DINGO>

        * ace/OS.i: Modified ACE_OS::cond_* for WinCE.

        * ace/config-win32-common.h:  Prevent ACE from using NT specific
          API on Win CE.

Sun Dec 21 16:19:40 1997  Nanbor Wang  <nw1@merengue.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.{h,i} (ACE_OS::sema_*): Added semaphore simulation code
          for WinCE.  This code is currently protected
          ACE_USES_WINCE_SEMA_SIMULATION for debugging the code on NT.
          This flag should soon be obsolete and changed to ACE_HAS_WINCE.

          Moved ACE_event_t macro definition for Win32 before ACE_sema_t
          definition for NT.  I need to use it in semaphore simulation.

        * ace/OS.h (class ACE_Cleanup_Info::operator ==, !=): Removed
          keyword struct.  ACE_Cleanup_Info is a class now.

        * ace/Containers.h (class ACE_Double_Linked_List): Removed
          unused function declarations.

        * ace/Containers.h (class ACE_DNode): Removed ACE_DNode class.

Sun Dec 21 18:47:09 1997  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.4.8, released Sun Dec 21 18:47:09 1997.

Sun Dec 21 12:39:38 1997  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.h (ACE_OS): Made the netdb_{acquire()/release()} methods
          public to help ACE users stuck on weird OS platforms.  Thanks to
          Arturo Montes <mitosys@colomsat.net.co> for this suggestion.

        * ace: Changed all ACE class documentation so that it puts the
          =TITLE and =DESCRIPTION comments *after* the opening '{' rather
          than before.  I did this since (1) it makes emacs C++ mode
          happier and (2) it makes Rational Rose reverse-engineering tool
          happier too.  Thanks to Thomas Jordan
          <Thomas_Jordan@deluxedata.com> for suggesting this.

        * ace/LOCK_SOCK_Acceptor.h: The accept() method of class
          ACE_LOCK_SOCK_Acceptor is no longer a virtual.  I don't know why
          this was made virtual in the first place, but it was a mistake.

Sun Dec 21 15:24:42 1997  Nanbor Wang  <nw1@merengue.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.h (class ACE_Cleanup_Info::operator ==, !=): Removed
          keyword struct.  ACE_Cleanup_Info is a class now.

        * ace/Containers.h (class ACE_Double_Linked_List): Removed
          unused function declarations.

        * ace/Containers.h (class ACE_DNode): Removed ACE_DNode class.

Sat Dec 20 11:05:45 1997  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/test_config.h (ACE_INIT_LOG): Added (%P|%t) to an
          ACE_DEBUG statement to make it consistent.

        * tests/IOStream_Test.cpp (spawn): Revised the test so that it
          prints data correctly to the child processes.

        * examples/Shared_Malloc/test_multiple_mallocs.cpp (main): Moved
          the final print statement inside one of the if blocks so that it
          appears only every second invocation to remind people to rerun
          the program to remove the leaks.  Thanks to Tom Arbuckle
          <arbuckle@uran.informatik.uni-bonn.de> for suggesting this.

        * ace/Malloc*: Changed ACE_MALLOC_STATS to ACE_HAS_MALLOC_STATS
          since this is more consistent with ACE conventions.  Also,
          added ACE_HAS_MALLOC_STATS to the ace/README file.  Thanks
          to Tom Arbuckle <arbuckle@uran.informatik.uni-bonn.de> for
          suggesting this.

        * ace/Memory_Pool.cpp (ACE_Shared_Memory_Pool): Fixed the logic
          for naming the backing store if the sscanf() call fails.  Thanks
          to Tom Arbuckle <arbuckle@uran.informatik.uni-bonn.de> for
          suggesting this.

Sat Dec 20 15:39:00 1997  Nanbor Wang  <nw1@merengue.cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/IOStream_Test.cpp (spawn): Changed ACE_LACKS_EXEC to
          ACE_LACKS_FORK.

Sat Dec 20 09:42:06 1997  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.h: changed ACE_SEH_FINALLY to be if (1) on Unix, not
         just pSOS.

Fri Dec 19 23:20:42 1997  Nanbor Wang  <nw1@merengue.cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/IOStream_Test.cpp (client): Removed an extra read.

        * ace/OS.h: ACE_SEH_FINALLY should always be executed on UNIX
          platforms.

Fri Dec 19 18:49:26 1997  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/IOStream_T.i: Enhanced ACE_IOStream and its companions as
          follows:

          - ACE_Streambuf_T<> now distinguishes recv() timeout failure from
            a "real" stream failure

          - ACE_IOStream::eof() honors the streambuf's recv_timeout() value
            and returns FALSE if the eof() check fails on timeout.

          - IOStream_Test.cpp tests the streambuf timeout via the stream eof()
            and retrys if possible.

          Thanks to James Johnson <jcej@lads.com> for these fixes.

        * ace/Log_Record.i: Removed a no-op assignment to Time_Value
          in the encode() method.    Thanks to Patrick J. McNerthney
          <pat@thememedia.com> for reporting this.

        * ace/Log_Record.i: The time stamp put into the ACE_Log_Record
          gets all messed up when the ACE_Log_Record is transmitted to the
          Server_Logging_Handler and the client is run on a little-endian
          architecture.  This is because the ACE_Log_Record::encode method
          does:

          this->time_stamp_ = ACE_Time_Value

          htonl (this->time_stamp_.sec ()),
          htonl (this->time_stamp_.usec ()));

          When the ACE_Time_Value is passed in the resulting values from
          "htonl", it calls "normalize" which totally messes with the
          values passed.  Thanks to Patrick J. McNerthney
          <pat@thememedia.com> for reporting this.

        * ace/OS.i: Fixed ctime_r() so that it doesn't crash if a NULL is
          returned from ctime_r().  Thanks to Patrick J. McNerthney
          <pat@thememedia.com> for reporting this.

Fri Dec 19 09:44:28 1997  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.{h,i}: fixed sigwait for DEC cxx, yet again for cxx
          V6.0-010.  cxx #defines sigwait, and was getting confused
          with ACE_OS::sigwait.  I replaced Thilo's #undef sigwait,
          and updated the ::sigwait declaration to what cxx uses internally.

        * examples/IPC_SAP/SOCK_SAP/CPP-inserver.cpp (server): cast arg
          to long before casting to ACE_HANDLE, and removed function-style
          cast.

Fri Dec 19 00:39:40 1997  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.4.7, released Fri Dec 19 00:39:40 1997.

Thu Dec 18 19:47:47 1997  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu>

        * examples/IPC_SAP/SOCK_SAP: Stripped the CPP-in{server,client}.cpp
          tests down to their bare essence to only test the core features
          of sockets.  Thanks to Bryan and Brian for suggesting this.

        * ace/Message_Queue.cpp (ACE_Message_Queue_Iterator): Changed
          queue to q to avoid clashes with STL.  Thanks to Brian Mendel
          <bmendel@mdc.com> for reporting this.

        * ace/OS.h: The server logging daemon is implemented using TCP/IP
          under Win32.  Therefore, we can simplify the creation of the
          ACE_DEFAULT_LOGGER_KEY.  Thanks to Patrick J. McNerthney
          <pat@thememedia.com> for reporting this problem.

Thu Dec 18 22:35:45 1997  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.h: fixed typo in end-of-comment marker.

        * ace/OS.h: on Digital Unix 4.0, only declare sigwait () with cxx,
          not with g++.  Thanks to Erik Margraf <erik@asgard.gud.siemens.co.at>
          for verifying this.

        * examples/IPC_SAP/SOCK_SAP/CPP-in{client,server}.cpp: tweaked
          so that they build on VxWorks (spawn needs the (ACE_THR_FUNC)
          cast), and without threads.

        * tests/run_tests.vxworks: updated VxWorks test status.

        * ace/Basic_Types.h: look for ULONGLONG_MAX, which Irix 6.x uses.
          And, hard-code ACE_SIZEOF_LONG_DOUBLE to be 16 on __sgi, because
          its float.h doesn't always allow us to distinguish them.
          Thanks to Carlos for reporting these.

        * ace/High_Res_Timer.cpp,Profile_Timer.cpp: removed dependence
          on ACE_U_LongLong.  Thanks to Carlos for reporting this.

        * tests/Time_Value_Test.cpp: fixed #ifdefs so that ACE_ULongLong
          isn't tested on Irix 6.x, etc.  Thanks to Carlos for tripping
          over this.

        * ace/IOStream_T.i (eof): made the return type, int, explicit.

        * ace/config-linux-common.h: started adding support for threads on
          alpha (glibc).

Thu Dec 18 21:17:46 1997    <nw1@DINGO>

        * ace/ace_dll.dsp: Added project files for Windows CE on SH3
          series CPU and x86 emulator.

        * ace/streams.h:
        * ace/OS.h: Added Windows CE flags.

        * ace/OS.cpp (invoke): Added a dummy return to shut gcc up.

        * ace/OS.cpp (invoke): Added a dummy return to shut gcc up.

        * ace/OS.{h,cpp} (rethrow_w32_structural_exception): Added this
          function, which prints out an error message to indicate the
          occurance of structural exception and rethrow it again.
          (ACE_Thread_Adapter::invoke): Rearranged try and except block
          for Win32 and added a finally block so when a structural
          exception occurs, a thread can clean it up properly, print out
          an error message, and rethrow the exception again.

Thu Dec 18 15:40:50 1997  James C Hu  <jxh@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Filecache.{cpp,h}:
          - debugged writing a file.
          - can select if mapping is desired.

        * ace/OS.h: Added new #defines to facilitate forward declarations
          of ACE_Export classes.

Thu Dec 18 00:15:02 1997  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.4.6, released Thu Dec 18 00:15:02 1997.

Wed Dec 17 19:42:38 1997  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu>

        * examples/IPC_SAP/SOCK_SAP: Enhanced the
          CPP-{inserver,inclient}.cpp tests so that they will spawn
          multiple client and server threads to perform the data transfer.
          Thanks to Brian Mendel and Bryan Doerr for suggesting this.

        * ace/OS.i: Fixed some very subtle bugs with cond_signal() and
          cond_broadcast().  Thanks to Patrick J. McNerthney
          <pat@thememedia.com> for reporting these and sending the fixes.

Wed Dec 17 19:27:06 1997  Nanbor Wang  <nw1@merengue.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE-INSTALL.html (HREF): Added an advise not to use VC5.0 SP3.

        * examples/OS/Process/Makefile: Removed inclusion of
          rules.lib.GNU. Thanks to Avi Nash <anash@RedBrick.Com> for
          noticing this.

Tue Dec 16 22:09:42 1997  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/Time_Value_Test.cpp: restored #include test_config.h,
          and changed #include ace/config.h to ace/inc_user_config.h.

        * examples/IPC_SAP/TLI_SAP/ftp-server.cpp,
          examples/Reactor/Misc/test_timer_queue.cpp,
          examples/Service_Configurator/IPC-tests/server/Handle_Timeout.i,
          examples/Shared_Malloc/test_malloc.cpp,
          examples/Threads/thread_specific.cpp: replaced ACE_HAS_64BIT_LONGS
          preprocessor logic with a cast through a long to an int.
          A void * is the same size as a long on all currently supported
          ACE platforms.  The int cast is also there, to avoid compiler
          warnings about narrowing.  As a side effect, the function-style
          casts were removed.

        * ace/config-osf1*.h,README: added comment stating that
          ACE_HAS_64BIT_LONGS is deprecated.

        * ace/config-tandem.h: removed commented-out line that mentioned
          ACE_HAS_64BIT_LONGS.

        * ace/OS.{h,i} (sigwait): removed DEC cxx version dependence.  The
          standard two-arg POSIX ::sigwait () seems to work just fine even
          on older releases of Digital Unix 4.0, with the sigwait declaration
          that we have in OS.h.  Thanks to Erik Margraf
          <erik@asgard.gud.siemens.co.at> and Thilo
          <kielmann@informatik.uni-siegen.de> for helping to sort this out.

          I did change the ACE_OS::sigwait () return value determination
          in OS.i.  It now depends on whether or not POSIX ::sigwait ()
          returns 0, to agree with the documenation for POSIX sigwait.
          Before, the code checked for a -1 return value from ::sigwait ().

Tue Dec 16 21:00:49 1997  Chris Gill  <cdgill@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        Single Threaded port of ACE to pSOSim - first checkin

        * psosim/Makefile: (new) make file for new psosim directory -
          builds the configured simulator components

        * psosim/drv_conf.c: (new) board driver configuration code for
          simulator

        * ace/sys_conf.h: (new) configuration settings for simulator, ACE

        * ace/config-psosim-g++.h: (new) config file for psosim w/ g++

        * ace/OS.cpp:
        * ace/OS.h:
        * ace/OS.i: Added psos and psosim specific code

        * ace/Mem_Map.cpp: Removed function style casts which were killing
          g++

        * ace/Message_Block.cpp: Removed function style casts which were
          killing g++

        * ace/Containers.cpp: Removed function style casts which were
          killing g++

        * ace/Map_Manager.cpp: Removed function style casts which were
          killing g++

        * tests/Handle_Set_Test.cpp: Added PSOS #defines, alongside those
          for VXWORKS

        * tests/SOCK_Connector_Test.cpp: Added PSOS #defines, alongside
          those for VXWORKS

        * tests/Priority_Reactor_Test.cpp: Added PSOS #defines, alongside
          those for VXWORKS

        * tests/MM_Shared_Memory_Test.cpp: Added PSOS #defines, alongside
          those for VXWORKS

        * tests/Conn_Test.cpp: Added PSOS #defines, alongside those for
          VXWORKS

        * tests/run_tests.psosim: (new) script to run only those tests
          that are relevant to pSOSim, in its current single threaded
          state

        * include/makeinclude/platform_psosim_g++.GNU (new) make macros
          for pSOSim using g++


Tue Dec 16 17:23:49 1997  Nanbor Wang  <nw1@merengue.cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/Time_Value_Test.cpp: Removed inclusion of "ace/config.h".

        * ace/inc_user_config.h:  Added this file to prevent multiple
          inclusions of config.h file.  Replace `#include "ace/config.h"'
          with `#include "ace/inc_user_config.h"'.

        * ace/Log_Msg.cpp:
        * ace/OS.h:
        * ace/Trace.cpp:
        * ace/streams.h:
        * ace/iosfwd.h:  Replace "config.h" with "inc_user_config.h".

Tue Dec 16 08:30:41 1997  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu>

        * examples/IPC_SAP/FILE_SAP/client.cpp (main): Fixed "lines" to
          "links."  Thanks to Istvan Buki <ibuki@fedex.com> for reporting
          this.

Tue Dec 16 14:15:48 1997    <irfan@TWOSTEP>

        * ace/OS.i (fstat): Fixed Dr. Schmidt's typo.

Tue Dec 16 09:17:53 1997  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Singleton.cpp (cleanup): set instance pointer to 0 after
          deleting it.  Thanks to Luca Priorelli <lucapri@mbox.vol.it>
          for suggesting this.

        * ace/Basic_Types.{h,i}: (ACE_U_LongLong): use ACE_UIN32 instead
          of u_long for data members, to ensure that its sizeof is 8 bytes.

        * ace/OS.h: except on WIN32 and Solaris (ACE_HAS_HI_RES_TIMER),
          always typedef ACE_hrtime_t to ACE_UINT64.  This changes removes
          the dependence on ACE_HAS_64BIT_LONGS.

        * ace/OS.cpp (ACE_TSS_Keys): replaced ACE_HAS_64BIT_LONGS
          dependence with ACE_SIZEOF_LONG == 8, and similarly for
          determination of 4-byte longs.

        * tests/TSS_Test.cpp (worker): replaced ACE_HAS_64BIT_LONGS
          preprocessor logic with a cast of the void * argument to a long.
          A void * is the same size as a long on all currently supported
          ACE platforms.  The int cast is also there, to avoid compiler
          warnings about narrowing.

        * tests/Time_Value_Test.cpp: replaced use of ! ACE_HAS_64BIT_LONGS
          with ACE_SIZEOF_LONG == 4.

Mon Dec 15 22:47:24 1997  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.4.5, released Mon Dec 15 22:47:24 1997.

Mon Dec 15 20:17:10 1997  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.cpp: Fixed pread() and pwrite() so that they work
          correctly even if we don't support threads.  Thanks to Irfan for
          finding this.

        * ace/OS.i: Tried to fix the fstat() wrapper on Win32 so that
          it does the right think for HANDLES.  Thanks to Lori Anderson
          <lori@probita.com> for pointing this out.

Mon Dec 15 15:36:07 1997  Nanbor Wang  <nw1@cumbia.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Thread_Manager.cpp (exit,wait): Changed these two functions
          more for Chorus.  Thanks again to Wei Chian
          <chiang@tele.nokia.fi> for providing the patch.

Mon Dec 15 06:42:42 1997  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Log_Msg.cpp (instance): on non-threaded platforms, only
          allocate a new ACE_Log_Msg_message_queue if the (static) pointer
          is 0.  Thanks to Stephen Coy <stevec@magna.com.au> for
          reporting this.

        * ace/config-linux-common.h: updated header comments about
          autosensing the platform capabilities.

        * tests/Process_Strategy_Test.cpp: (parse_args): added DEBUG
          message if an unsupported concurreny strategy is provided with
          a -c option.

Mon Dec 15 01:12:33 1997    <irfan@TWOSTEP>

        * ace/Synch_T.h (ACE_Atmoic_Op::value_i): Explicitly return
          <value_> (by reference).  This gives the user full, unrestricted
          access to the underlying value.  This method will usually be
          used in conjunction with explicit access to the lock.  Use with
          care ;-)

Sun Dec 14 21:37:08 1997  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.i (cond_wait,cond_timedwait): Fixed a missing return to
          handle the case where we're using USYNC_PROCESS for the external
          mutexes.

        * ace/OS: Made the use of the waiters_lock_ mutex consistent in
          the ACE_cond_t implementation.  This was broken since we used
          the external_mutex to serialize access to the waiters_ count
          inconsistently.  Thanks to Patrick J. McNerthney
          <pat@thememedia.com> for reporting this very subtle bug.

Sun Dec 14 12:29:26 1997  Nanbor Wang  <nw1@merengue.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Thread_Manager.cpp (exit,wait): Disabled thread join
          functionality in Chorus.  Thanks to Wei Chiang
          <chiang@tele.nokia.fi> for providing the fix.

Fri Dec 12 21:48:38 1997  Torbjorn Lindgren <tl@funcom.com>

        * ace/config-linux*.h: All Linux platform files except the
          Linux-KCC modified to use the upgraded common Linux
          configuration file. Linux-KCC looks reasonably easy to do,
          if no-one that actually have KCC takes care of it I can do
          this one later.

        * ace/config-linux-common.h: Modernized and updated the common
          Linux configuration file to handle more of the common
          configuration stuff. Also added the beginning of proper
          glibc and egcs support for Linux.

Sat Dec 13 14:22:28 1997    <irfan@TWOSTEP>

        * ace/Basic_Types.h: Changed _M_IX386 to _M_IX86.

Fri Dec 12 19:41:42 1997    <irfan@TWOSTEP>

        * ace, tests, version_tests: Updated Win32 makefiles (VC4.2 and
          VC5.0) to include new Basic_Types_Tests.

        * tests/Basic_Types_Test.cpp (main): Updated to use
          ACE_OS::getpagesize().

        * ace/ACE.cpp (round_to_pagesize): Updated to use
          ACE_OS::getpagesize().

        * ace/OS.i (getpagesize): Added this to ACE_OS.

Fri Dec 12 07:49:01 1997  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.i (inet_addr): changed type of "valid" from bool to u_int.
          This code is only seen on VxWorks.

        * ace/IOStream.h (ACE_Quoted_String::operator <): changed return
          type from bool to int.

        * ace/config-vxworks*.h,README: removed ACE_LACKS_SOCKET_BUFSIZ;
          added ACE_DEFAULT_MAX_SOCKET_BUFSIZ of 32768.

        * examples/IPC_SAP/SOCK_SAP/C-in{client,server}.cpp: added
          support to optionally set socket buffer sizes.

        * examples/System_V_IPC/SV_Semaphores/Semaphores_2.cpp:
          removed unused constant SHMSZ.

        * examples/Timer_Queue/Reactor_Timer_Queue_Test.cpp: removed
          unused constant NO_OF_IO_HANDLERS.

        * ace/IOStream_T.h (ipfx,ipfx1): don't call setstate () on WIN32,
          because MS VC++ 5.0 doesn't declare it.  Thanks to Irfan for
          reporting this.  This "fix" is temporary, maybe, until we
          figure out the proper fix.

        * ace/OS.h: cast the 1 in ACE_MSB_MASK to an fd_mask, to support
          64-bit fd_masks.  I suspect that with this change, the
          ACE_HAS_BROKEN_BITSHIFT used in config-tandem.h is no longer
          necessary.

        Added Basic_Types:
        * ace/Basic_Types.*,Makefile: Basic_Types defines the
          following preprocessor macros:

          Sizes of built-in types:
            ACE_SIZEOF_CHAR
            ACE_SIZEOF_WCHAR
            ACE_SIZEOF_SHORT
            ACE_SIZEOF_INT
            ACE_SIZEOF_LONG
            ACE_SIZEOF_LONG_LONG
            ACE_SIZEOF_VOID_P
            ACE_SIZEOF_FLOAT
            ACE_SIZEOF_DOUBLE
            ACE_SIZEOF_LONG_DOUBLE

          Wrappers for built-in types of specific sizes:
            ACE_INT16
            ACE_UINT16
            ACE_INT32
            ACE_UINT32
            ACE_UINT64
          (Note: ACE_INT64 is not defined, because there is no ACE_LongLong for
           platforms that don't have a native 8-byte integer type.)

          Byte-order (endian-ness) determination:
            ACE_BYTE_ORDER, to either ACE_BIG_ENDIAN or ACE_LITTLE_ENDIAN
            ACE_BIG_ENDIAN or ACE_LITTLE_ENDIAN

        * ace/OS.*: moved ACE_U_LongLong to Basic_Types.*.

        * ace/OS.h: added #include <float.h>.

        * ace/config-linux-common.h,README: added ACE_HAS_BYTESEX_H.

        * tests/Basic_Types_Test.cpp,run_tests.{bat,sh,vxworks),Makefile:
          added new Basic_Types_Test.

        * tests/Time_Value_Test.cpp: removed ACE Version printout because
          it is now in Basic_Types_Test.

Fri Dec 12 03:00:21 1997  James C Hu  <jxh@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/config-sunos5.5-egcs-1.0.h: Fundamemntally identical to g++
          version, except added ACE_HAS_STDCPP_STL_INCLUDES, which is
          taken to mean that the Standard C++ STL include files are
          supported.

        * IOStream.h: Added #if's to handle the case where
          ACE_HAS_STRING_CLASS, but if ACE_HAS_STDCPP_STL_INCLUDES, then
          the string class is found in <string>.  Otherwise, it looks for
          it in <String.h>.

        * ace/OS.i: Re-implemented strcasecmp methods.  Thought bad
          implementations were related to a JAWS bug, but the hand
          implementations are not used on Solaris.

Thu Dec 11 23:20:57 1997    <irfan@TWOSTEP>

        * ace/Strategies_T.cpp (activate_svc_handler): Changed the
          parameter that was been passed into the open routine of
          Svc_Handler.  The <arg> that was passed to us is passed through
          to open, rather than passing <this>.  Thanks to Mats Nilsson
          <mats.nilsson@xware.se> for pointing this out.

        * ace/Connector.cpp (activate_svc_handler): Made sure that we pass
          the connector pointer as the void* parameter to the svc_handler.

Thu Dec 11 23:35:04 1997  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.i. The code was always calling dlsum for the _init()
          hook, even if dlopen() failed.  In addition to fixing this, I
          also removed a potential handle leak. Thanks to Patrick
          J. McNerthney <pat@thememedia.com> for reporting this.

Thu Dec 11 13:13:17 1997  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/LSOCK.cpp (recv_handle): fixed to remove compile errors and
          warnings on platforms with both ACE_HAS_4_4BSD_SENDMSG_RECVMSG
          and ACE_HAS_THREADS.  The delta from version 4.3 of this file
          is very small.  Thanks to Kirill Rybaltchenko
          <Kirill.Rybaltchenko@cern.ch> for reporting this problem and
          verifying the fix on LynxOS, the only affected platform.

        * ace/config-linux-kcc.h,include/makeinclude/platform_linux_kcc.GNU:
          added linuxthreads support with the linux KAI C++ config.
          Thanks to Ben Eng <ben@jetpen.com> for the patches.

        * ace/IOStream_T.h: iostream fx emulation now skips whitespaces and
          flushes when tied.  Thanks to Ben Eng <ben@jetpen.com> for the patch.

        * tests/IOStream_Test.cpp (server): check for double-quote instead
          of newline as end-of-string character.  Thanks to Ben Eng
          <ben@jetpen.com> for the patch.

        * tests/SV_Shared_Memory_Test.cpp: renamed "allocator" to
          "myallocator" to avoid conflict with STL.  Thanks to Ben Eng
          <ben@jetpen.com> for the patch.

        * include/makeinclude/platform_linux_lxpthread.GNU: protect
          PRELIB definition with ifndef PRELIB, to allow overriding
          without modifying the platform_macros.GNU file.  Thanks to
          James Johnson <jcej@lads.com> for this suggestion.

        * ace/IOStream_T.cpp: restored ACE_HAS_IOSTREAMH_INCLUSION
          protection around the old g++ munch hack.  There's no need
          to trouble all (g++) platforms with its (4 byte) space penalty.

        * examples/IOStream/server/iostream_server.cpp (handle_input):
          removed unused local "addr".

        * examples/Reactor/Dgram/{CODgram,Dgram}.cpp (run_test): added
          return 0 at end so that the function always returns a value.

        * include/makeinclude/platform_lynxos.GNU: added comment indicator
          to comment describing POSTLINK.

        * ACE-INSTALL.html: updated DEC CXX 6.0 test status: all tests pass
          with the version of DIGITAL UNIX 4.0 and cxx 6.0 that we use.

Wed Dec 10 23:57:00 1997  Chris Cleeland  <cleeland@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.4.4, released Wed Dec 10 23:57:00 1997.

Wed Dec 10 16:24:09 1997    <irfan@TWOSTEP>

        * ace/Auto_Ptr.i: Apparently, the standard states that in order to
          access members of a templated superclass from a templated
          subclass, then the member name must be fully qualified.
          Therefore, changed access to p_ to ACE_Auto_Basic_Ptr<X>::p_.
          Thanks to Stephen Coy <stevec@magna.com.au> for reporting this.

Tue Dec 09 13:05:00 1997    <nw1@CHA-CHA>

        * ace/Containers.cpp (copy_all_nodes): Added a temporary
          ACE_Node<T> pointer to get around the macro side effects.

Sun Dec  7 10:20:46 1997  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Service_Config.cpp (parse_args): Added an appropriate macro
          to switch from char * to UNICODE.  Thanks to Timothy A. Brown
          <tabrown@montana.com> for reporting this.

        * ace/config-linux-*.h: Added ACE_HAS_GETRUSAGE_PROTO to all
          the linux config files.  Hopefully, this will help ACE to work
          better with glibc.  Thanks to Ernie Makris <emakris@ziplink.net>
          and Torbjorn Lindgren <tl@funcom.no> for their help.

Sat Dec 06 13:30:11 1997  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.4.3, released Sat Dec 06 13:30:11 1997.

Sat Dec  6 12:02:09 1997  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * examples/IOStream: Revised both the client and server to
          demonstrate the ACE_IOStream functionality correctly.  Also
          added a README file explaining how to run the examples.  Thanks
          to James Johnson and Dustin Laurence
          <laurence@alice.wonderland.caltech.edu> for suggesting this.

        * ace/IOStream_T: Added a new method eof() to the ACE_IOStream_T<>
          class.  This returns 1 if we've reached the end of the socket
          stream, else 0.

Fri Dec  5 16:58:29 1997  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Addr.h: Added a const ACE_Addr & instead of const ACE_Addr.
          This will avoid an extra copy.  Thanks to Irfan for noticing
          this.

        * examples/Reactor/Dgram/CODgram.cpp: Also updated the CODgram
          test to be just like the Dgram test.

        * examples/Reactor/Dgram/Dgram.cpp (main): Fixed a bug where it
          was sending a huge buffer instead of just the string size.
          Also, exit once we've finished the send.  Finally, revised the
          test so that it is easier to understand and so that it exits
          properly.  Thanks to Michael Hoffman
          <Hoffman_Michael@mac-mailserver.atc.ll.mit.edu> for reporting
          this.

Fri Dec 05 13:20:09 1997    David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * include/makeinclude/platform_vxworks5.x_ghs.GNU: added OFLAGS.
          Thanks to Brian Mendel for suggesting these.

        * tests/IOStream_Test.cpp: updated to work with the standard C++
          library version of iostreams.  That primarily involved not
          using operator>>(char& c) and operator>>(char* c) for C strings.
          Thanks to Ben Eng <ben@jetpen.com> for the patch.

        * ace/OS.{h,i},config-osf1-4.0.h: fixed sigwait on DEC CXX 6.0/
          recent DEC UNIX 4.0.  The fix keys off the compiler version,
          though it probably should depend on the OS.  It adds a
          sigwait declaration, which is a current signal.h deficiency.
          With this change, ACE builds and tests cleanly on DEC UNIX.

        * ace/config-vxworks5.x-g++.h: restored comment that explains
          ACE_HAS_MINIMUM_IOSTREAMH_INCLUSION.

        * netsvcs/lib/Makefile: the first line of the Local Target
          (Server_Logging_Handler.*) override mysteriously disappeared, again.

Fri Dec  5 12:15:49 1997  Chris Cleeland  <cleeland@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Select_Reactor.cpp: Made error messages on open failure more
          verbose.  Having these in place straightaway would have helped
          track down some problems at Boeing much more effectively.

Fri Dec  5 11:15:17 1997  Nanbor Wang  <nw1@merengue.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Log_Msg.h (callers.): Added documentation for %I and %D
          flags.  Thanks to John Morey <jmorey@tbi.com> for reosting
          this.

        * ace/Dynamic.h:
        * ace/CORBA_Ref.h:
        * ace/Token_Invariants.h:
        * ace/Token_Collection.h:
        * ace/Local_Tokens.h:
        * ace/Remote_Name_Space.h:
        * ace/Registry_Name_Space.h:
        * ace/Strategies.h:
        * ace/Name_Space.h:
        * ace/Name_Request_Reply.h:
        * ace/Naming_Context.h:
        * ace/Name_Proxy.h:
        * ace/Local_Name_Space.h:
        * ace/Local_Name_Space_T.h: Corrected erroneous comments.  These
          files all contain incorrect filename info in the preambles which
          make erroneous auto-generated man pages.

Fri Dec 05 00:00:53 1997    <irfan@TWOSTEP>

        * ace/OS.h: If the user wants minimum IOStream inclusion, i.e.,
          they have defined ACE_HAS_MINIMUM_IOSTREAMH_INCLUSION, we will
          just include the forward declarations, i.e., ace/iosfwd.h.  Else
          they will get all the stream header files, i.e., ace/streams.h.
          The positive thing about this change is that if your code was
          using stream classes and you were depending on OS.h to provide
          you the stream header files, you will not have to change your
          code, unless you have defined
          ACE_HAS_MINIMUM_IOSTREAMH_INCLUSION.  Thanks to Dr. Schmidt for
          suggesting this and thanks to David Levine for suggesting it to
          Dr. Schmidt ;-).

        * ace/config-vxworks5.x-g++.h: Restored
          ACE_HAS_MINIMUM_IOSTREAMH_INCLUSION.

        * ace/Asynch_IO.cpp (open): Fixed typo.

Thu Dec 04 21:20:47 1997  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.4.2, released Thu Dec 04 21:20:47 1997.

Thu Dec  4 19:45:04 1997  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Object_Manager.cpp (ACE_Object_Manager_Destroyer): Fixed a
          bug in the
          ACE_Object_Manager_Destroyer::~ACE_Object_Manager_Destroyer
          thread comparison routine.  Thanks to Steven Coy for this.  Also
          renamed _saved_main_thread_id to saved_main_thread_id_, which is
          proper ACE style.

        * Updated the ACE-INSTALL.html file to explain why you don't need
          to build everything all the time.  Thanks to Dustin Laurence
          <laurence@alice.wonderland.caltech.edu> for suggesting this.

        * tests/SOCK_Connector_Test.cpp (fail_no_listener_nonblocking):
          Added a check for ENETUNREACH.  Thanks to Dustin Laurence
          <laurence@alice.wonderland.caltech.edu> for reporting this.

        * ace/Asynch_Acceptor.cpp (open): Changed the local variable named
          sap_any to sa to avoid conflicts with the new sap_any macro.

        * ace/Asynch_IO: Made the ACE_Service_Hanlder::open() method
          non-virtual to work around bugs with Borland C++.  Thanks to
          Valik Solorzano Barboza <valik@geodan.nl> for suggesting this.

        * ace/ACE.cpp (COMPUTE): Put parens around elements the COMPUTE
          macros so that it will work on Borland C++.  Thanks to Valik
          Solorzano Barboza <valik@geodan.nl> for suggesting this.

        * ace/config-win32-common.h: Added ACE_HAS_BROKEN_SAP_ANY to deal
          with Borland C++ bugs.  Thanks to Valik Solorzano Barboza
          <valik@geodan.nl> for suggesting this.

        * ace/Addr: Added a workaround for the Borland C++ problems.  This
          introduces a new global macro called sap_any.  However, this is
          only used for Borland, so it should be ok.  Thanks to Valik
          Solorzano Barboza <valik@geodan.nl> for suggesting this.

        * ace/LSOCK.cpp (recv_handle): Make the code smarter if we've got
          both STREAMS and 4_4BSD_SENDMSG_RECVMSG.

        * Reran "make depend" over all of ACE.

        * netsvcs/clients/Logger/indirect_logging.cpp (main): Changed
          LOGGING to LOGGER.  Thanks to Irfan for noticing this.

        * netsvcs/lib/Client_Logging_Handler: Changed "rendezvous" to
          "logger."

        * netsvcs/clients/Logger/indirect_logging.cpp,
          netsvcs/lib/Client_Logging_Handler: Changed DEFAULT_RENDEZVOUS
          to DEFAULT_LOGGER_KEY.  Thanks to Steven Coy for pointing out
          this inconsistency.

        * ace/OS.h: Renamed ACE_LOGGER_KEY to ACE_DEFAULT_LOGGER_KEY to
          make it consistent with other ACE_DEFAULT_* names.

        * ace/OS.h: Changed the definition for ACE_LOGGER_KEY so that it
          defaults to "localhost:10015" on platforms that don't support
          ACE STREAM Pipes.  Thanks to Steven Coy for suggesting this.

        * ace/Service_Config.cpp: Added the -k option to parse_args() so
          that the user can set the logger key.  Thanks to Steven Coy for
          suggesting this.

        * ace/Service_Config: Added the logger_key as a parameter to the
          other open() method, as well.  Thanks to Steve Coy for being
          picky ;-).

        * netsvcs/clients/Logger/direct_logging.cpp (main): Modified the
          code to use the new framing scheme.

        * netsvcs/lib/Server_Logging_Handler_T.cpp
          (handle_logging_record): Updated the code to take advantage of
          our new framing scheme.

        * netsvcs/lib/Client_Logging_Handler.cpp (send): We can be smarter
          now about sending the ACE_Log_Record across the network since
          the length field is now fixed and it's guaranteed to be in the
          first 4 bytes.  Thanks to Steve Coy for suggesting this.

        * ace/Log_Record.h (ACE_Log_Record): Replaced the horribly
          non-portable "long length_" field with the "ACE_INT32 length_"
          field, which is nice because it is portable across platforms
          with different long-word sizes.

Thu Dec 04 09:57:40 1997  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * include/makeinclude/platform_osf1_4.GNU: allow enabling of
          WARNING_FLAGS by setting CXX_VER to POST_5X.  Thanks to
          James Johnson for this suggestion.

        * ace/Svc_Conf_l.cpp: rebuilt with Doug's flex.

Thu Dec 04 03:46:04 1997    <irfan@TWOSTEP>

        * ace/Makefile (Svc_Conf_l.cpp): Changed the sed macros to produce
          OS.h include instead of stdcpp.h.

        * ace/Svc_Conf_l.cpp: Updated after code was regenerated using the
          new sed changes in the Makefiles.  Currently there are two
          inclusions of OS.h in this file and an extra stdlib.h.  Maybe
          someone more experienced in sed can take these out by updating
          the Makefile.

        * ace/IOStream_T.h (stdcpp.h): Removed inclusion of stdcpp.h.  It
          is redundant because IOStream.h includes it.

        * ace/streams.h: New file.  This files tries to reduce the
          differences between the old and new stream libraries for the
          user.  This is done by automatically selecting the correct
          includes depending on the ACE_HAS_STANDARD_CPP_LIBRARY variable.
          This file also helps out by making commonly used classes (e.g.,
          ios, ostream, iostream, cin, cout, etc) available in the global
          name space when used with the Standard C++ Library. Use this
          file where you would usually include <iostream.h> or <iostream>.

        * ace/iosfwd.h: New file. This files deals with forward
          declaration for the stream classes.  Remember that since the new
          Standard C++ Library uses templates for the implementation of
          the streams, simple forward declaration will not work.  Classes
          forward declared by this class include:

          ios
          streambuf
          istream
          ostream
          iostream
          filebuf
          ifstream
          ofstream
          fstream

          Use this file where you would usually forward declare the
          classes listed above.

        * ace/stdcpp.h: Removed this file from the repository.  This file
          was trying to do too much.  All the inclusion of the C Library
          headers were unnecessary.  This is because the new C++ standard
          preserves the old C library include files.  The functions from
          those files will still be in the global namescape.  The new
          header files (e.g., cstdio), provides the same prototypes as the
          old files (e.g., stdio.h), except that all prototypes are in the
          std namespace.  Since we want the old behavior and global
          prototypes (for backward compatibility), inclusion of the new
          header files was incorrect.

          stdcpp.h was included by OS.h.  This caused almost all files to
          force the inclusion of the stream header files.  This was
          changed so that OS.h only includes the ace/iosfwd.h file.  This
          means that if your code was using stream classes and you were
          depending on OS.h to provide you the stream header files, you
          will have to change your code to either include iostream.h or
          iostream, or more portably ace/streams.h.

        * ace/OS.h: Removed stdcpp.h. Moved the standard C library
          includes from stdcpp.h to OS.h.  Also added ace/iosfwd.h to give
          forward declaration for the stream classes.

        * ACE: Added explicit inclusion of ace/streams.h to the following
          files:

          ace/IOStream.cpp
          ace/Log_Record.cpp
          ace/OS.cpp
          ace/SString.cpp
          ace/Log_Msg.cpp
          tests/test_config.h
          examples/Log_Msg/test_log_msg.cpp
          examples/Reactor/Misc/test_time_value.cpp
          examples/Threads/task_three.cpp
          netsvcs/lib/Logging_Strategy.cpp
          examples/Logger/Acceptor-server/server_loggerd.cpp
          examples/ASX/UPIPE_Event_Server/event_server.cpp
          examples/Reactor/Ntalker/ntalker.cpp
          examples/Shared_Malloc/test_persistence.cpp
          examples/System_V_IPC/SV_Message_Queues/MQ_Server.cpp
          examples/System_V_IPC/SV_Message_Queues/MQ_Client.cpp
          examples/System_V_IPC/SV_Message_Queues/TMQ_Server.cpp
          examples/System_V_IPC/SV_Message_Queues/TMQ_Client.cpp

        * Updated makefile dependencies throughout ACE to reflect the
          removal of stdcpp.h and the addition of streams.h.

        * examples/Threads/barrier2.cpp: Removed inclusion of stdcpp.h.

        * ace/IOStream_T.cpp: Reorganized include files so that inclusion
          of config.h is not necessary.

        * ace/IOStream.cpp: Changed inclusion of config.h to OS.h.

        * ace: Removed config.h from the following files.  It was
          redundant.

          Timer_Hash.cpp
          Timer_Heap.cpp
          Timer_List.cpp
          Timer_Queue.cpp
          Timer_Wheel.cpp

        * ace: Added code to protect against multiple inclusions of
          config.h.  Following files were effected:

          Trace.cpp
          Log_Msg.cpp

        * ace/config-win32-common.h: Removed redundant definitions of
          ACE_HAS_TYPENAME_KEYWORD and ACE_HAS_SIG_ATOMIC_T.  Thanks to
          Matthias Kerkhoff <make@cs.tu-berlin.de> for pointing this out.

Wed Dec  3 21:37:47 1997  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@flamenco.cs.wustl.edu>

        * Added the new ACE-inheritance.ps and pdf files, which show the
          class structure of ACE.  Thanks to John Lindal
          <jafl@cheshire-cat.caltech.edu> for generating this.

        * ace/Service_Config: Removed the static logger_key_ member and
          replaced it with a (defaulted) parameter to open().  This is
          more flexible.  Thanks to Steve Coy for the suggestion.

        * ace/Service_Config.h: Addressed all the "@@" questions.

        * examples/IPC_SAP/SOCK_SAP/CPP-inclient.cpp (main): Fixed a
          subtle bug in the "quit" logic.  Thanks to Michael Hoffman
          <Hoffman_Michael@mac-mailserver.atc.ll.mit.edu> for reporting
          this.

        * netsvcs/lib/Server_Logging_Handler_T.cpp (handle_logging_record),
          netsvcs/lib/Client_Logging_Handler.cpp (send):
          Changed the code so that we now always send ACE_UINT32 bytes
          worth of data for the length field.  This ensures we're portable
          across platforms.  Thanks to Steven Coy for noticing this.

Wed Dec 03 18:02:09 1997    <irfan@TWOSTEP>

        * performance-tests/Synch-Benchmarks/Benchmark.cpp: Added template
          instantiations for Atomic_Op.

Wed Dec  3 10:29:58 1997  Carlos O'Ryan  <coryan@macarena.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/ACE.cpp:
          Use ACE_UINT32 to compute the 32-bit CRC, on Alphas (and
          probably other 64 bit machines) u_long seems to be longer than
          that.

Wed Dec 03 07:39:15 1997  Steve Huston  <shuston@riverace.com>

        * include/makeinclude/platform_hpux.GNU:
        * include/makeinclude/platform_hpux_gcc.GNU: Moved some compile options
          from the DCFLAGS to the CCFLAGS to compile correctly with or without
          debugging.

Wed Dec 03 06:26:14 1997  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Future.cpp,
          tests/{Future_Test,Reactors_Test,Reader_Writer_Test.cpp,
          examples/Threads/manual_event.cpp:
          moved ACE_Atomic_Op<ACE_Thread_Mutex, int> instantiation from
          ace/Future.cpp to where it is used.

        * ace/OS.cpp (inet_aton): return 0 if addr argument is 0.  Thanks
          to Wei for reporting this.

        * ace/config-linux.common.h: set an ACE_DEFAULT_BASE_ADDR, on Alpha
          for now.  This might be necessary on Intel as well.

        * ace/OS.{h,i}, config-osf1-4.0.h: fixed use of ::sigwait with
          DIGITAL_UNIX's cxx 6.0, which now uses ACE_HAS_ONEARG_SIGWAIT.
          Also, added an ACE_DEFAULT_BASE_ADDR to the config file.

        * tests/{Priority_Reactor_Test,Reactor_Performance_Test}.cpp:
          instantiate ACE_Map_*, for use by ACE_Connector, with ACE_HANDLE
          instead of int.  That's the way it's declared in ace/Connector.h.

Wed Dec 03 00:17:50 1997    <irfan@TWOSTEP>

        * tests/test_config.h: Removed code for
          ACE_HAS_MINIMUM_IOSTREAMH_INCLUSION, as this option is no longer
          necessary.

        * ace/stdcpp.h: Removed code for
          ACE_HAS_MINIMUM_IOSTREAMH_INCLUSION, as this option is no longer
          necessary.

        * ace/config-vxworks5.x-g++.h: Removed
          ACE_HAS_MINIMUM_IOSTREAMH_INCLUSION.  This flag is no longer
          required.

        * ace/IOStream_T.cpp: Removed ACE_HAS_MINIMUM_IOSTREAMH_INCLUSION
          from #if defined.

        * ACE: Removed the explicit iostream.h inclusion from these:

          examples/ASX/UPIPE_Event_Server/event_server.cpp
          examples/Log_Msg/test_log_msg.cpp
          examples/Logger/Acceptor-server/server_loggerd.cpp
          examples/Reactor/Misc/test_time_value.cpp
          examples/Shared_Malloc/test_persistence.cpp
          examples/Threads/task_three.cpp
          netsvcs/lib/Logging_Strategy.cpp

        * ace/IOStream.h: Darrell missed removing this explicit iostream.h
          inclusion.

        * ace/Future.cpp: Removed template instantiation of Atomic_Op
          since Atomic_Op is not used by Future.

Fri Dec 02 11:46:17 1997    <nw1@CHA-CHA>

        * ace/Proactor.cpp (ACE_Proactor): Reenabled Proactor's thread
          manager to wait on its Timer_Handler thread.

        * ace/Thread_Manager.cpp (close_singleton): Removed Win32 specific
          codes.  This is no longer necessary with above changes.
          (wait): Close down thread handles when removing detached
          threads.  Avoid performing wait when the program is shutting
          down.
          (remove_thr_all):  Extracted out this protected member function.
          (close): Changed to use the new remove_thr_all function.

        * ace/Proactor.cpp (handle_events): Changed the magic number 258
          to WAIT_TIMEOUT.  Thanks to Mark Rabotnikov
          <mark@netmanage.co.il> for pointing this out.

Tue Dec 02 14:13:15 1997  Steve Huston  <shuston@riverace.com>

        * include/makeinclude/platform_hpux_aCC.GNU: Moved some compile options
          from the DCFLAGS to the CCFLAGS to compile correctly with or without
          debugging.  Thanks to Istvan Buki <ibuki@fedex.com> for reporting
          the problem.

Tue Dec 02 06:16:39 1997  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Object_Manager.cpp (~ACE_Object_Manager_Destroyer): don't
          delete the ACE_Object_Manager if not destroyed by the main
          thread.  That can cause problems, at least on WIN32.  And
          it should only happen under exceptional conditions, at least
          on WIN32.  Thanks to Ari Erev <ari_erev@icomverse.com> and
          John Neystadt <john_neystadt@icomverse.com> for suggesting this.

        * ace/IOStream.cpp (underflow,overflow): moved get_mode_ and
          put_mode_ accesses so that it now works on KAI C++.
          Thanks to Ben Eng <ben@jetpen.com> for the patch.

        * ace/config-linux-kcc.h: commented out ACE_TEMPLATES_REQUIRE_SOURCE.
          Thanks to Ben Eng <ben@jetpen.com> for this update.

        * ace/Profile_Timer.cpp (elapsed_time): changed
          ACE_ONE_SECOND_IN_USECS to ACE_ONE_SECOND_IN_NSECS.  Thanks
          to Wei for noticing this.

        * ace/OS.cpp (inet_aton): removed CHORUS specialization.
          Thanks to Wei for reporting this.

        * include/makeinclude/platform_chorus.GNU: added CHORUS = 1,
          for use by individual Makefiles.

        * examples/Shared_Malloc/test_persistence.cpp: removed
          ACE_Malloc<ACE_MMAP_MEMORY_POOL, ACE_Null_Mutex>
          instantiation because it's in ace/System_Time.cpp.

        * ace/config-lynxos.h: removed ACE_HAS_UALARM, because LynxOS
          apparently doesn't.

        * include/makeinclude/platform_lynxos.GNU: added -Winline and
          removed -fno-strict-prototypes.

        * tests/Message_Queue_Test.cpp (main): increased queue size from
          default of 16Kb to 32Kb, so that it runs on machines with 8Kb
          pagesizes.  And, added a check to see if the queue is full
          before enqueuing.

        * ace/OS.i, config-osf1-4.0.h: DECXX 6009006 has SIGWAIT.

        * ACE-INSTALL.html: updated DEC_UNIX test status.  Message_Queue_Test
          and all of the Mutex_Tests now pass.  Conn_Test no longer does.

Tue Dec 02 00:18:04 1997    <irfan@TWOSTEP>

        * ace/Memory_Pool.cpp (handle_signal): If guess_on_fault_ is true,
          then we cannot call remap(0).  This will always put the address
          out of range.  Therefore, we will shoot in the dark (user has
          instructed us to do so as guess_on_fault_ is true) and try to
          remap the file.  If the user does not want this behavior, the
          guess_on_fault_ flag should be turned off.  Thanks to Jon
          Prettyman <jonp@als.ameritech.com> for pointing this out.

Mon Dec 01 16:13:06 1997    <irfan@TWOSTEP>

        * ace/config-win32-common.h: Added back ACE_LACKS_ACE_IOSTREAM to
          the config file. The test is not compiling.

        * tests/run_tests.bat: Look for "Win32 structured exception" in
          the log files.

Mon Dec  1 14:01:02 1997  Darrell Brunsch <brunsch@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Log_Msg.cpp, ace/Log_Msg.h, ace/Log_Record.cpp,
          ace/Log_Record.h ace/OS.h, ace/stdcpp.h, tests/test_config.h:

          Changed use of ACE_HAS_MINIMUM_IOSTREAMH_INCLUSION in stdcpp.h
          to include iostream when the above is #defined.  Made
          changes to other files to accommodate this change.

Mon Dec 01 12:15:00 1997    <irfan@TWOSTEP>

        * ace/config-win32-common.h (ACE_LACKS_ACE_IOSTREAM): James CE
          Johnson claims that ACE_LACKS_ACE_IOSTREAM is no longer not
          necessary when using the ACE_HAS_STANDARD_CPP_LIBRARY.

        * ace/OS.h: Changed the definition of ACE_UNIMPLEMENTED_FUNC so
          that it just evaporates on platform that have
          ACE_REQUIRES_FUNC_DEFINITIONS defined.

          ACE_UNIMPLEMENTED_FUNC is only required for template classes and
          not for a normal class.  When the template is explicitly
          instantiated, it causes some compilers to look for the
          definition of all the declared methods.

          On platforms that have this behavior, we have decided to take
          out the declaration of this function.  This is necessary since
          an empty definition of {} usually does not work with some
          constructors.  And by providing a explicit definition of this
          function, will cause all platforms to suffer.

          Therefore, platforms with ACE_REQUIRES_FUNC_DEFINITIONS defined
          must be specially careful when using this.

Mon Dec 01 07:56:02 1997  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * include/makeinclude/platform_sunos5_sunc++.GNU: added
          -xildoff to LDFLAGS, to avoid occasional problems with
          the incremental linker.  Thanks to Hans Rohnert
          <Hans.Rohnert@mchp.siemens.de> for this suggestion.

        * include/makeinclude/platform_vxworks5.x_g++.GNU,
          etc/ace_ld, bin/ace_ld, ACE-INSTALL.html:
          moved ace_ld from etc/ to bin/.

        * Makefile: added etc/ to CLONE and RELEASE_FILES.

        * include/makeinclude/platform_lynxos.GNU: added -Wall to CFLAGS.

        * ace/ACE.cpp (set_handle_limit): only call setrlimit if
          RLIMIT_NOFILE is #defined.

        * ace/OS.h: removed ACE_HAS_STDARG_THR_DEST dependence for
          ACE_THR_DEST definition.

        * ace/OS.cpp (thr_keycreate): with ACE_HAS_DCETHREADS only, cast
          dest argument to ::pthread_keycreate if ACE_HAS_STDARG_THR_DEST.

        * ace/OS.i (get{host,proto,serv}by{addr,name}_r): with
          ACE_HAS_NONCONST_GETBY only, added some ACE_UNUSED_ARGS.

        * examples/Shared_Malloc/Malloc.cpp: removed
          ACE_Guard<ACE_Process_Mutex> instantiation because it's in
          ace/Synch.cpp.

        * ace/config-lynxos.h: added ACE_HAS_RECURSIVE_THR_EXIT_SEMANTICS.
          Without it, the Thread_Manager went recursively ballistic.

        * performance-tests/Misc/preempt.cpp (main): fixed printout if
          ACE_OS::sched_params () call failed.

Sun Nov 30 22:44:50 1997  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.4.1, released Sun Nov 30 22:44:50 1997.

Sun Nov 30 20:32:50 1997  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * include/makeinclude/platform_osf1_3.2.GNU: removed -ptr option
          from CCFLAGS, so the default template repository will be used.
          Thanks to Dani Flexer <danif@ivory-sw.com> for reporting this.

        * ace/Svc_Conf_l.cpp,Makefile:
          1) #include ace/stdcpp.h instead of stdio.h so that anything
             that needs to be #included with/before stdio.h can be.
          2) Changed ECHO to ACE_SVC_CONF_ECHO to avoid compiler warning if
             ECHO was #defined to be a constant.

        * ace/Makefile: set ACELIB to null so that it can be used to build
          shared libs, including libACE.$(SOEXT).

        * include/makeinclude/platform_osf1_4.0.GNU: added $(ACELIB) to
          SOFLAGS to avoid shared lib build warnings about undefined ACE
          symbols.

        * ace/Thread_Manager.h: declare ACE_THR_MEMBER_FUNC outside of
          ACE_Thread_Manager class with __GNUG__ instead of with
          VXWORKS || IRIX5.  The problem is with older versions of g++,
          not with the OS.

Sun Nov 30 14:13:09 1997  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@merengue.cs.wustl.edu>

        * netsvcs/servers/README: Clarified a bit more about how to
          configure the client and server logging processes.  Thanks to
          Neil Cohen for motivating this.

Sun Nov 30 17:36:35 1997  Sergio Flores  <sergio@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Synch.cpp (ACE_File_Lock): Fixed order of parameters in the
        call to this->open() and too many arguments in call to
        ACE_File_Lock::open().

Sun Nov 30 16:31:41 1997  Carlos O'Ryan  <coryan@macarena.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Synch.h:
        * ace/Synch.cpp:
          ACE_File_Lock should create the file if it does not exist, to do
          so the constructor takes the <flags> parameter to ACE_OS::open()
          and defaults to O_CREAT|O_RDWR.

Sat Nov 29 21:31:07 1997  Nanbor Wang  <nw1@merengue.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Proactor.cpp (~ACE_Proactor_Timer_Handler): Removed explicit
          call to thr_mgr_.close().
          (ACE_Proactor):  Be sure to ask Thread_Manager not to wait for
          the timer_handler_ thread.

        * ace/Thread_Manager.cpp (close_singleton):  Only reset
          exit_on_wait status if we are responsible for deleting the
          global thread manager.

Sat Nov 29 15:15:04 1997  Carlos O'Ryan  <coryan@swarm.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/IPC_SAP.cpp:
          Removed warning for functions not returning a value on SGI, it
          seems that the flow changed and the last return was reached
          sometimes, hence the ACE_NOTREACHED macro is no longer needed.

Sat Nov 29 13:12:47 1997  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Synch: Conditionally inlined all the ACE_Process_Mutex
          wrapper calls and moved them into the Synch.i file.  I'm not
          sure why there weren't here before.

        * ace/Synch: Reimplemented ACE_RW_Process_Mutex to use
          ACE_File_Lock, which provides the proper readers/writer
          semantics that had been lacking in the previous implementation.

Fri Nov 28 04:25:23 1997  Nanbor Wang  <nw1@merengue.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace: Removed redundant trailing commas from
          ACE_UNIMPLEMENTED_FUNC.

        * ace/Thread_Manager.{h,i,cpp}: Delete declaration of
          remove_thr_self.  It is no longer in use.
          (wait_on_exit): Added this function to let users specify whether
          they want their Thread_Manager wait for spawned threads on exit
          or not.
          (wait): On Win32, handles should be closed if we decide to let
          the thread go wild.
          (remove_thr): Added another parameter to control whether
          remove_thr should close the handle or not.  It is only used on
          Win32.
          (close):  Removed the <automatic_wait> parameter for it has been
          incoporated as a member.
          (close_singleton): Reset <automatic_wait_> on Win32. We'll never
          need to wait for unfinished threads on NT.
          (ACE_Thread_Manager): Added initialization of member
          <automatic_wait_>.  It is default to 1 (wait on exit.)

        * ace/Containers.h: Corrected erroneous comments.

Wed Nov 26 10:33:22 1997    <irfan@TWOSTEP>

        * ace/Log_Msg (msg): Changed the parameters from char * to const
          char *.

        * ace: Added unimplemented copy constructors and assignment
          operators to the following classes:

          ACE_Map_Manager
          ACE_Message_Block
          ACE_Data_Block
          ACE_Log_Msg
          ACE_Message_Queue
          ACE_Task
          ACE_Task_Base

          Added ACE_UNIMPLEMENTED_FUNC macros to these classes:

          ACE_Mem_Map
          ACE_Priority_Reactor
          ACE_Select_Reactor
          ACE_WFMO_Reactor
          ACE_XtReactor
          ACE_Reactor
          ACE_Read_Buffer
          ACE_CORBA_Handler
          ACE_TSS_TPQ_Entry
          ACE_Object_Manager
          ACE_File_Lock
          ACE_Semaphore
          ACE_RW_Mutex
          ACE_Mutex
          ACE_Null_Barrier
          ACE_Null_Condition
          ACE_Null_Mutex_Guard
          ACE_Event
          ACE_Thread_Mutex
          ACE_Thread_Mutex_Guard
          ACE_Condition_Thread_Mutex
          ACE_Recursive_Thread_Mutex
          ACE_Barrier
          ACE_Condition

          Thanks to Stanley D Leeson <STANLEY.D.LEESON@cdev.com> for these
          suggestions.

Sat Dec 20 14:57:30 1997    <nw1@CHA-CHA>

        * All MSVC 5.0 project files: Removed unnecessary library
          inclusions.  Most of them are not necessary. Thanks to
          Patrick J. McNerthney <pat@thememedia.com> for suggesting
          this.

Wed Nov 26 15:49:14 1997  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/IOStream_T.i (recv) affects WIN32 only: fixed typo,
          ACE_BIT_ENABLED instead of ACE_BIT_ENTABLED IOStream_T.i.
          Thanks to James CE Johnson <jcej@lads.com> for reporting this.

        * include/makeinclude/platform_lynxos.GNU: added information
          on necessary OS patches.

Wed Nov 26 09:45:43 1997  Chris Cleeland  <cleeland@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.h (ACE_PROPER_SINGLETON_INSTANTIATION): Corrected
          misspelling in the "! defined (MSC_VER)" branch.  I just happened
          to notice this, so I don't know if anybody ever tried it and it
          failed.

Tue Nov 25 12:07:07 1997  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * include/makeinclude/platform_osf1_3.2.GNU: updated for
          OSF/1 3.2g/CXX 5.7.  Thanks to Dani Flexer <danif@ivory-sw.com>
          for the updates.

Tue Nov 25 01:07:39 1997    <irfan@TWOSTEP>

        * examples/Reactor/Proactor/test_multiple_loops.cpp (main): Made
          sure that the Proactor was removed from reactor.

        * ace/WFMO_Reactor.cpp (remove_handler_i,
          remove_suspended_handler_i): Make sure to preserve DONT_CALL
          with normal event entries.

        * ace/Proactor.cpp:

        - A flag used to indicate when we are shutting down.

        - Made sure to signal the timer event when we are closing down.

        - Thread Manager: don't bother to wait (since the thread may have
          already gone). But make sure to close up the descriptor.  This
          may not be necessary in the future when THR_DETACHED is
          correctly implemented.

        * ace/Asynch_IO.h: Changed some code from protected to public.
          Even though these functions are really protected, sometimes it
          simplifies user code to be able to "fake" a result.  Users
          should use these with care.

        * examples/Reactor/Proactor/test_proactor.cpp
          (handle_write_stream): Added code for partial write to socket.
          However it ever seems to do a short write ;-). Also made sure
          that the initial data coming from the AcceptEx call is also
          dumped to the file.  Thanks to Mark Rabotnikov
          (mark@netmanage.co.il) for pointing this out.
