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.
