Sat Feb 27 08:02:52 1999  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * include/makeinclude/platform_linux_kcc.GNU:  added note
          that evaluation copies of KCC might come with libraries
          that were built with exception handling support.  To use
          them, ACE must be built with exception handling support
          (exceptions=1).  Thanks to John Lindal <jafl@cco.caltech.edu>
          for reporting this.

          Also, added support for the exceptions make flag.

Fri Feb 26 23:58:46 1999  Jeff Parsons  <parsons@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/CDR_Stream.{h,i,cpp}:
          Added some read- and write-pointer alignment
          functions, as proposed by Carlos. Also deleted some
          ACE_OutputCDR members that weren't being used.
          Checked the build on NT and suncc. Must come up with
          some kind of test for these new functions.

Fri Feb 26 21:56:05 1999  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Makefile: moved ACE_COMPONENTS to after include
          of wrapper_macros.GNU, so that users can set it in
          their platform_macros.GNU.  Also, added ACE_LACKS_ACE_OTHER
          to CFLAGS if Other ACE_COMPONENT is not built.

Fri Feb 26 17:48:32 1999  Steve Huston  <shuston@riverace.com>

        * include/makeinclude/platform_hpux_aCC.GNU: Added OCFLAGS
          value for optimize=1 builds; added support for distrib=1
          builds to build for off-site distribution.

Fri Feb 26 12:38:00 1999  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.cpp: added #include "ace/Thread_Manager.h" on
          WIN32, for ACE_Thread_Descriptor declaration.  Thanks
          to Barry Hoggard <hoggard@cfx.com> for reporting this.

        * ace/Managed_Object.h: fixed comments in description.

Fri Feb 26 11:56:08 1999  Ossama Othman  <othman@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Log_Priority.h (ACE_Log_Priority): Removed all references to
          ACE_HAS_BROKEN_ENUMS since it has been deprecated (see David's
          ChangeLog entries from Feb 5).

Fri Feb 26 11:09:47 1999  Ossama Othman  <othman@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.i (sema_destroy): ACE_OSCALL and ACE_OSCALL_RETURN macro
          calls for sem_destroy, sem_unlink and sem_close had too few
          arguments.  Added the missing arguments for the macros.

Fri Feb 26 10:59:45 1999  Alexander Babu Arulanthu  <alex@cs.wustl.edu>

        * examples/Reactor/WFMO_Reactor/test_talker.cpp (main): Fixed to
        use the new proactor interface.

Thu Feb 25 22:17:58 1999  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.cpp (spa, for VxWorks only): updated comment about
          ::sp () default values, and added comments for each argument
          to ::taskSpawn ().  Thanks to Tad Jarosinski <tadj@qualcomm.com>
          for asking about spa ().

Thu Feb 25 20:10:06 1999  Ossama Othman  <othman@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Synch.h:
        * ace/Synch.i:
        * ace/Synch_T.h:

        Added an ACE_Null_Semaphore class.  Thanks to Irfan for his guidance
        on this.  Also fixed ACE_SYNCH_SEMAPHORE to be ACE_Null_Semaphore
        when ACE is built without thread support.

Thu Feb 25 18:37:27 1999  Irfan Pyarali  <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/WFMO_Reactor (cancel_wakeup and masks_ops): Fixed the
          cancel_wakeup() method.  It was doing too much, i.e., if the
          masks were reduced to null, it was removing the event handler
          entry.  The new version behaves more like the Select Reactor in
          that it simply plays with the masks without removing the event
          handler.

          Also, implemented the mask_ops() operation.

          Thanks to Douglas C. Schmidt <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu> and Zoran
          Ivanovic <zorani@pathcom.com> for helping in pinpointing the
          problem.

        * ace/Service_Config.cpp (fini_svcs and close): Since the reactor
          and proactor singletons potentially call user code (in
          handle_close()), we must shut them down *before* the log msg is
          destroyed.  Therefore, moved the close_singletons() call from
          close() to fini_svcs().

        * ace/Select_Reactor_Base.cpp (bit_ops): Since we return the old
          masks everytime, find the old reactor masks at the start of the
          method.  This automatically does the work of the GET_MASK
          operation.

        * ace/Proactor.cpp: Added #include "ace/Object_Manager.h"

        * examples/Reactor/WFMO_Reactor/test_prerun_state_changes.cpp:
          handle_close() was getting called twice; changed code to prevent
          double deletion.

        * examples/Reactor/WFMO_Reactor/test_handle_close.cpp: Added the
          ability to cancel reads, change masks, and check for existing
          reactor masks.

Thu Feb 25 17:35:10 1999  Kirthika Parameswaran  <kirthika@cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/DLL_Test.cpp:
          Changed the OBJ_SUFFIX to ".so" as on Linux the .o file cannot
          be a shared object. Also the OBJ_PREFIX is now "./lib" for
          non-Win32 platforms.
        * tests/Makefile:
          Additional option DLL_TEST added so that a .so can be produced
          for DLL_Test.
        * tests/Makefile.DLL:
          This is the makefile which produces libDLL_Test.so for DLL_Test.

Wed Feb 24 23:47:22 1999  Alexander Babu Arulanthu  <alex@cs.wustl.edu>

        * examples/Reactor/Proactor/test_proactor.cpp:
        * ace/WIN32_Asynch_IO.h:
        * ace/Proactor.cpp:
        * ace/WIN32_Proactor.cpp:
        * ace/Proactor.h:
        * ace/Proactor_Impl.h:
        * ace/POSIX_Proactor.h:
        Changed the return values of the <ACE_Proactor::handle_events> API to
        return -1 on error, 0 on timeout, 1 on success. This has been done so
        that it looks like the <ACE_Reactor::handle_events>. Previously
        <ACE_Proactor::handle_events> was returning -1 on error, 0 on success
        and 0 on timeout also.

        Fixed the <ACE_POSIX_AIOCB_Proactor::handle_events> and
        <ACE_POSIX_SIG_Proactor::handle_events> to do indefinite blocking when
        ACE_INFINITE is passed. <sigwaitinfo> is used instead of
        <sigtimedwait>.

        Renamed the <ACE_AIO_Accept_Handler> class to more appropriate
        <ACE_Notify_Pipe_Manager>.

Wed Feb 24 22:08:50 1999  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.i: Fixed all the sem_* calls so that they no longer use
          the ACE_ADAPT_RETVAL() macro, which was broken since these calls
          all return -1 on failure.  Thanks to John E. Bossom
          <John.Bossom@cognos.com> for reporting this.

Wed Feb 24 17:40:49 1999  James CE Johnson  <jcej@chiroptera.tragus.org>

        * docs/tutorials/combine:
        * docs/tutorials/colorize:
          A few enhancements to make the colorization better.  Also, when
          #include "ace/something.h" is seen by the colorizer, it will
          create a link to ../../../ace/something.h.  That should give
          direct links from the tutorial pages to the ACE headers.

Wed Feb 24 16:56:51 1999  James CE Johnson  <jcej@chiroptera.tragus.org>

        * docs/tutorials/017/barrier2.cpp: Added this to show how you can
          change the thread count while threads are still active.

        * docs/tutorials/017/*.html: Regenerated due to the new file.

        * docs/tutorials/018/*.html: Added Kirthika's abstract &
          regenerated.

        * docs/tutorials/018/token.cpp:  Typo in the comments...

Wed Feb 24 14:57:10 1999  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.h (ASYS_ONLY_WIDE_STRING): New UNICODE macros to convert
          char* to wchar* when UNICODE is defined but not on CE.

        * ace/Service_Config.cpp (parse_args): Convert getopt.optarg using
          ASYS_ONLY_WIDE_STRING.

Wed Feb 24 13:54:15 1999  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/config-minimal.h: changed #include protection to
          ACE_CONFIG_MINIMAL_H, so that this config can be #included
          by others.

        * ace/OS.{h,cpp},Thread_Manager.h: moved ACE_Thread_Control and
          ACE_Thread_Exit class definitions from Thread_Manager.h to OS.h,
          so that Task.h no longer needs to be #included by OS.cpp.

        * ace/OS.cpp: protected #include of Containers_T.h with
          defined (ACE_WIN32) || defined (ACE_HAS_TSS_EMULATION).

Wed Feb 24 05:30:59 1999  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Message_Queue_T.i (dequeue): Replaced the improper
          self-recursive call to dequeue() with dequeue_head().  Thanks to
          Marc Engel <engelm@tlse.sofreavia.fr> for reporting this.

Tue Feb 23 20:58:17 1999  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.i: Make sure to do the right thang if we're compiling the
          ACE recursive thread mutexes on platforms that lack threading.

        * ace/Service_Object: Added a new ACE_Service_Object constructor
          that takes an ACE_Reactor * and passes this down to the
          ACE_Event_Handler base class.

        * ace/Event_Handler: Added a new ACE_Event_Handler constructor
          that takes an ACE_Reactor * and an int priority that default to
          the right values.

Tue Feb 23 21:53:32 1999  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.h,README: added ACE_HAS_MINIMAL_ACE_OS support.

        * ace/config-minimal.h: added this config file.  It defines
          ACE_HAS_MINIMAL_ACE_OS.  It is designed to build only
          the minimal ACE_OS adaptation layer.

Tue Feb 23 20:28:45 1999  Marina Spivak  <marina@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/SString.{h,i,cpp}: Added a private member <buf_len_> to the
          ACE_CString class to keep track of the size of data buffer, and
          avoid unnecessary memory reallocations.  Updated class methods
          to use buf_len_.

Tue Feb 23 19:54:55 1999  Alexander Babu Arulanthu  <alex@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/POSIX_Asynch_IO.h:
        * ace/POSIX_Asynch_IO.cpp:
          Fixed the potential dominance warnings in POSIX
          implementation. Updated the documentation.

Tue Feb 23 18:11:11 1999  Kirthika Parameswaran  <kirthika@cs.wustl.edu>

        * examples/DLL/DLL.dsw:
          examples/DLL/Main.dsp:
          examples/DLL/Newsweek.dsp:
          examples/DLL/Today.dsp:
          Added extra include and linker options to the projects.

        * tests/DLL_Test:
          Added OBJ_PREFIX to cater to the problem which arose due to the fact
          that the .o is produced under the .obj directory on SunOS.

        * tests/run_tests.sh:
          tests/run_tests.bat:
          Made an entry for DLL_Test.

Tue Feb 23 16:54:33 1999  Irfan Pyarali  <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.i (recursive_mutex_trylock and recursive_mutex_lock):
          Removed the "abandoned" versions of these routines.  Abandoned
          mutexes are only supported for process mutexes, but not for
          thread mutexes.

Tue Feb 23 15:50:40 1999  Alexander Babu Arulanthu  <alex@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Proactor.cpp:
        * ace/Proactor.h:
        * ace/Proactor_Impl.h:
        * ace/POSIX_Proactor.h:
        * ace/POSIX_Proactor.cpp:
        * ace/POSIX_Asynch_IO.h:
        * ace/POSIX_Asynch_IO.cpp:
        * ace/WIN32_Proactor.cpp:
        Implemented <post_completion> for POSIX platforms. Thanks to Irfan
        for the cool design. This API has been changed a little bit for
        portability. <post_completion> API now exists at
        <ACE_Asynch_Result_Impl> class. To post completions, users will have
        to get hold of an <ACE_Asynch_Result_Impl> class (either get it from
        the predefined factory methods at the Proactor or derive from
        <ACE_WIN32_Asynch_Result> or <ACE_POSIX_Asynch_Result>, then call
        <post_completion> on it passing in the <Proactor_Impl *> which can
        be got through <implementation> method in the <ACE_Proactor>.
        The need for RTTI has been avioded in this design.

Tue Feb 23 15:19:33 1999  Steve Huston  <shuston@riverace.com>

        * ace/NT_Service.(h cpp): Added two new methods:
          state (DWORD *, ACE_Time_Value * = 0) as an alternate way to get the
          service's state, with definite indication of error.  Also changed
          comments on the other state() method to clarify the return value.
          test_access (DWORD) tests caller's access to the service.
          Thanks to Martin Krumpolec <krumpo@pobox.sk> for these ideas and
          suggestions!

Tue Feb 23 14:12:52 1999  Irfan Pyarali  <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Active_Map_Manager_T.h (npos): Added a new static member
          function that returns a key that cannot be found in the map.
          Thanks to Fernando D. Mato Mira <matomira@acm.org> for
          suggesting this.

Tue Feb 23 12:15:09 1999  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Svc_Conf.y:
        * ace/Svc_Conf_y.cpp:
        * ace/Parse_Node.cpp (symbol):
        * ace/OS.cpp (fork_exec):
        * ace/INET_Addr.cpp (ACE_INET_Addr): More Unicode fixes.

Tue Feb 23 12:00:21 1999  Steve Huston  <shuston@riverace.com>

        * examples/NT_Service/main.cpp: Allow -i option without a value, and
          default to AUTO_START.  Also, added a README file to explain how to
          use the program.  Thanks to Zoran Ivanovic <zorani@pathcom.com> for
          the change and the README file!

Mon Feb 22 22:03:47 1999  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * bin/auto_compile_win32.pl: Perl script for compiling all the
          million different config. combination on Win32.  Hey, it also
          works on Alpha.  Thanks to Darrell Brunsch for testing it on
          Alpha/NT.

        * ace/ace_{dll,lib}.dsp: Fixed broken project settings.

Mon Feb 22 21:56:27 1999  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Sched_Params.cpp: removed #include of ACE.h because it's
          not necessary.

        * ace/Makefile: added ACE_COMPONENTS default definition.
          Moved Sched_Params from THREADS_FILES to OS_FILES because
          OS.cpp needs it.  It only contributes 172 bytes to libACE
          on VxWorks and 248 on LynxOS.

Sun Feb 21 18:52:17 1999  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.6.23 released.

Sun Feb 21 08:46:09 1999  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.i (recursive_mutex_{init,lock,trylock}: added some
          ACE_UNUSED_ARGS.

        * ace/OS.{i,cpp} (cond_*): uninlined the ACE_OS:cond_* function
          versions with ACE_LACKS_COND_T.  Most are too big to be
          good candidates for inlining.  And the others cause use-before-
          definition problems in OS.i.

Sun Feb 21 00:17:58 1999  Darrell Brunsch <brunsch@cs.wustl.edu>

        * websvcs/lib/URL_Addr.i: Can now copy null Addrs.  Also added
          hash function implementation.

        * websvcs/lib URL_Addr.h: Added hash function.

        * websvcs/lib/URL_Addr.cpp: Fixed a bug with
          ACE_HTTP_Addr::create_relative_address and urls beginning with
          "/".  It used to copy the first '/', which wasn't needed.

Sat Feb 20 15:39:16 1999  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.{h,cpp},Object_Manager.{h,cpp}: changed ACE_OS::exit ()
          to call an exit hook that is registered by the ACE_Object_Manager,
          instead of directly calling ACE_Object_Manager::fini ().

        * ace/OS.i (thr_self): moved definitions to before first use.

Sat Feb 20 11:50:30 1999  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.i (thr_equal): Moved the body of ACE_OS::thr_equal before
          recursive_mutex methods to avoid "function redefined as inline"
          problem.  Thanks to David Levine for reporting this.

Sat Feb 20 09:05:20 1999  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@ace.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.cpp: Changed the ACE_static_cast() in ACE_OS_Wstring to
          first use an ACE_const_cast().  Thanks to Andy Gokhale for
          reporting this.

Sat Feb 20 02:53:38 1999  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.cpp (ACE_OS_WString): Need to add a statis cast when
          converting from wchar to char to eliminate a warning from Win98.

        * ace/config-win32-common.h: Do not check for library type on CE.

        * ace/config-WinCE.h: Defined ACE_HAS_WINCE as 1.

Fri Feb 19 22:54:18 1999  Carlos O'Ryan  <coryan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.h:
          Fixed the return types for ACE_OS_WString and ACE_OS_CString
          assignment operators, even though they are not defined they
          should be declared to return something, otherwise egcs give us a
          ton of warnings.

Fri Feb 19 21:02:49 1999  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/config-win32-common.h: #define'd ACE_HAS_RECURSIVE_MUTEXES
          for Win32.

        * ace/OS.cpp: Removed the SString.h dependency in OS.cpp!

Fri Feb 19 21:44:31 1999  Darrell Brunsch <brunsch@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.i: Was using two many arguments to thread_mutex_lock ()
          and ACE_OS::thread_mutex_trylock ().

        * ace/Synch.i: Typo in comment

Fri Feb 19 18:18:13 1999  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.{h,i,cpp}: Added ACE_OS_WString and ACE_OS_CString which
          should only be used within ACE_OS to perform conversion between
          wchar strings and char string.
          Changed the wide/multibyte conversion macros to use
          ACE_OS_?String classes and removed dependencies to Auto_Ptr.h
          and SString.h.

        * ace/config-win32-common.h: Removed checked for (_DLL) if
          ACE_HAS_DLL = 0.  Otherwise, the static build won't compile.

        * ace/Token_Manager.cpp (release_token):
        * ace/Service_Manager.cpp (list_services): Changed
          ASYS_MULTIBYTE_STRING to ASYS_ONLY_MULTIBYTE_STRING.  Because
          the new conversion classes have stronger type checking, these
          errors weren't found until now.

Fri Feb 19 17:01:08 1999  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Makefile: moved ACE from OS_FILES to UTILS_FILES.

Fri Feb 19 15:44:23 1999  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS,
          ace/Synch: Moved the implementation of the
          ACE_Recursive_Thread_Mutex from the Synch.* files to
          the OS.* files in order to reduce coupling in OS.* and
          other parts of ACE.

Fri Feb 19 12:36:43 1999  Carlos O'Ryan  <coryan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.i:
          Fixed missing ACE_INLINE for ACE_OS::strenvdup()

Fri Feb 19 11:35:57 1999  Steve Huston  <shuston@riverace.com>

        * include/makeinclude/platform_sunos5_sunc++.GNU: Added new option
          "distrib".  If you do a "make distrib=1" the -R options won't be
          given when linking, which produces dynamic load records requiring
          objects/libraries in standard places, or use of LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
          The default is distrib=0, which is the existing behavior.

Fri Feb 19 11:22:48 1999  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.cpp (open): Don't call CreateFileA with FILE_SHARE_DELETE
          when compiled on Win95 because it doesn't support the flag.  The
          implication of this change is that unlink before close will not
          work on Win95.  So programs that are targeted to both NT and
          Win95 cannot depend on it.  Thanks to Rod Joseph
          <rodjoseph@adt.com> for reporting the bug.

Thu Feb 18 21:10:45 1999  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.cpp (string_to_argv): We no longer have to special case
          for WinCE since this logic has been moved into
          ACE_OS::strenvdup().

        * ace/ACE.cpp: Implemented ACE::strenvdup() using
          ACE_OS::strenvdup().

        * ace/OS: Move the implementation of strenvdup() from ACE to
          ACE_OS to remove another dependency from the OS wrappers.

        * ace/ARGV.cpp: Rewrote the ACE_ARGV::string_to_argv() and
          ACE_ARGV::argv_to_string() methods to use the new
          ACE_OS::string_to_argv() and ACE_OS::argv_to_string().

        * ace/OS.h: Added string_to_argv() and argv_to_string() methods to
          ACE_OS to remove the dependency on ACE_ARGV.

Thu Feb 18 19:21:03 1999  James CE Johnson  <jcej@chiroptera.tragus.org>

        * docs/tutorials/005/client_handler.cpp: Replaced the leading '_'
        in the open() method so that we can cast _acceptor to acceptor.

Thu Feb 18 14:12:28 1999  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * netsvcs/clients/Naming/Client/svc.conf: Changed to start up
          ACE_Naming_Context as dynamic service.  Thanks to Darren
          Whobrey <whobrey@fecit.co.uk> for reporting this problem.

        * ace/Name_Proxy.cpp (open): The timeout value was set upp
          ACE_Time_Value::zero accidentally when we want blocking
          connect.  Thanks to Darren Whobrey <whobrey@fecit.co.uk> for
          reporting the bug.

        * ace/CDR_Stream.{h,i} (ACE_InputCDR::do_byte_swap): Added
          accessor function for Flick.

        * ace/CORBA_macros.h (ACE_THROW_INT): This should return a new
          instance of the exception.  Thanks to Andy for pointing this
          out.

Wed Feb 17 16:40:56 1999  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.h (ACE_NEW_THROW_EX): A new ACE_NEW_THROW macro which
          makes ACE_NEW_THROW_EX behave like a exception-throwing
          function.  I.e., you need to follow ACE_NEW_THOW_EX with
          appropriate ACE_CHECK* macros.  The use of ACE_NEW_THROW,
          ACE_NEW_THROW_RETURN, ACE_NEW_TRY_THROW are deprecated.

        * docs/exceptions.html: Added documentation for
          ACE_DECLARE_NEW_CORBA_ENV.

        * ace/config-WinCE.h: Automatically define ACE_HAS_WINCE if it is
          not already defined.

        * ace/Synch.cpp: I had to shuffle the location of .i file around
          to avoid a warning from SH compiler for CE.

        * ace/config-win32-common.h: Disabled checking for DLL run-time,
          WIN32, and multi-threaded run-time on Windows CE.

        * ace/CORBA_macros.h (ACE_DECLARE_NEW_CORBA_ENV): Added this macro
          for declaring a new CORBA_Environment called ACE_TRY_ENV.
          ACE_TRY_NEW_ENV should now be avoided because it won't work if
          multiple try blocks are needed in the top-most functions.
          Instead, you can use the new macro to define the environment
          variable and use ACE_TRY/ACE_TRY_EX as usually.  This is even
          more intuitive than ACE_TRY_NEW_ENV. ;)  Thanks to Andy for
          reporting the problem.

Wed Feb 17 10:44:29 1999  Alexander Babu Arulanthu  <alex@cs.wustl.edu>

        * examples/Reactor/Proactor/test_proactor.dsp:
        * examples/Reactor/Proactor/test_proactor.cpp:
        * examples/Reactor/Proactor/Makefile:
        rtagged these files with "new_proactor"

Tue Feb 16 17:08:53 1999  Steve Huston  <shuston@riverace.com>

        * examples/ASX/Event_Server/Transceiver: Moved Event_Transceiver
          class definition to new file, transceiver.h, to build ok on AIX (P15)
          and fixed core dump if ctor fails to connect.

        * examples/Connection/misc: Moved some class definitions from
          test_upipe.cpp to new file test_upipe.h to build ok on AIX (P17).
          Same thing with Connection_Handler - new file Connection_Handler.h.

        * examples/Connection/misc/Makefile: Clean out tempinc directory
          between program compiles so AIX xlC doesn't freak out.

Tue Feb 16 16:42:23 1999  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/CORBA_macros.h (ACE_PRINT_EXCEPTION): A new macro that deal
          with printing out the exception for debugging.  Thanks to Lothar
          Werzinger <lwerzinger@krones.de> for suggesting this.

        * docs/exceptions.html: Added documentation for the new macro
          ACE_PRINT_EXCEPTION.  Since there's no portable way to print out
          the content of a CORBA_Exception, we use this macro to deal with
          differences among various ORB implementations.  This macro is
          user definable.

        Thanks to Eric Covington <eric@nowsol.com> for figuring out the
        following.

        * ace/ace_ce_dll.dsp: Added Functor.cpp and Message_Queue.cpp.

        * ace/High_Res_Timer.cpp (dump): Fixed Unicode problem.

        * ace/OS.i (truncate): WinCE does not have char* version of
          truncate.

Tue Feb 16 00:39:35 1999  Alexander Babu Arulanthu  <alex@cs.wustl.edu>
        * ace/ace_dll.dsp:

        Updated the files.
        * ace/WIN32_Asynch_IO.h:
        * ace/WIN32_Asynch_IO.cpp:
        * ace/WIN32_Asynch_IO.i:
        Added the files

        * ace/ace_lib.dsp:
        Updated these files
        * examples/Reactor/Proactor/Makefile:
        New make file which also compiles the test_aiosig_ace.cpp
        program.
        * ace/POSIX_Asynch_IO.i:
        Added the file.


        rTagged the ACE_wrappers repository with <before_proactor>
        After the following changes rtagged the repository with
        <after_proactor>

        Applied Bridge pattern to the POSIX implementation of the Proactor
        code. ACE_POSIX_AIOCB_Proactor works fine on Solaris
        2.6. ACE_POSIX_SIG_Proactor works on LynxOS. Take a look at the tests

Mon Feb 15 13:17:15 1999  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.6.22 released.

Sun Feb 14 15:25:27 1999  Ossama Othman  <othman@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE-configuration.txt:

        * ace/config.h.in:

        Started to introduce the work done by the ACE Configuration
        Project into the official ACE distribution.

        To help speed development, the work being done by the ACE
        Configuration Project is being slowly introduced into the official
        ACE distribution.  Some of the functionality in the work created by
        the ACE Configuration Project has been removed so that ACE may be
        built in the usual fashion.  Once the ACE Configuration Project
        work stabilizes on more platforms that removed functionality may be
        added to ACE.

        Currently the configure script contains most of the tests that are
        necessary to properly configure ACE on most platforms.  However,
        there are still some autoconf tests that are missing.  As such, you
        may encounter and most likely will have compilation problems.

        The `configure' script that is currently being used has been
        modified from the ACE Configuration Project's `configure' script to
        prevent makefiles from being automatically generated since there are
        still some issues that must be addressed before automatically
        generated makefiles are incorporated into the official ACE
        distribution.

Sun Feb 14 14:09:11 1999  James CE Johnson  <jcej@chiroptera.tragus.org>

        * docs/tutorials/015/server.cpp (main): Force the singleton to use
        the Select Reactor instead of the OS-default.  This should fix the
        problem this tutorial has on Win32 due to blocking vs non-blocking
        socket configuration.

        * docs/tutorials/015/Protocol_Task.h : Removed the ability to
        activate this task.  The code is now a little simpler and less
        likely to behave in unpredicatable ways.

        * docs/tutorials/015/* : A few typos fixed but mostly fallout from
        removing the ability to activate the Protocol_Task.

        * docs/tutorials/016/page01.html : Added Kirthika's abstract.

        * docs/tutorials/016/condition.cpp : Made max_threads_ a
        non-static member variable that is set by open().

        * docs/tutorials/017/page01.html : Added Kirthika's abstract.

Sun Feb 14 12:47:03 1999  Carlos O'Ryan  <coryan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/CDR_Stream.h:
        * ace/CDR_Stream.i:
        * ace/CDR_Stream.cpp:
          Minor cosmetic changes, mostly trailing spaces.

Sat Feb 13 22:06:17 1999  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        The following changes are based on the patch Eric Covington
        <eric@nowsol.com> submitted.  Thanks very much to Eric for
        bringing ACE/CE up-to-date.

        * ace/ace_ce_dll.dsp: Updated.

        * ace/OS.cpp: (open): CE doesn't support opening files with
          attribute FILE_SHARE_DELETE.

        * ace/OS.i (abort): CE doesn't support abort.

        * ace/Stats.cpp (print_summary): CE doesn't support strerror.

        * ace/Stats.i (dump): Changed to use ACE_DEBUG.

        * tests/Thread_Manager_Test.cpp (main):
        * ace/tests/SOCK_Connector_Test.cpp (find_another_host):
        * ace/Log_Msg.cpp (log):
        * ace/INET_Addr.cpp (addr_to_string): Fixed Unicode problems.

Fri Feb 12 16:14:47 1999  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Remote_Tokens.cpp: Replaced the typedef for
          ACE_TSS_CONNECTION_MUTEX with #define ACE_TSS_CONNECTION_MUTEX.
          Thanks to Arturo for reporting this.

Fri Feb 12 18:41:22 1999  Steve Huston  <shuston@riverace.com>

        * ace/SString.cpp: Added "ace/" to #include "Auto_Ptr.h" to conform
          to conding guidelines.

Fri Feb 12 17:16:17 1999  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/run_tests.vxworks: commented out Message_Queue_Test and
          Timeprobe_Test, because they lockup the machine.  And,
          fixed string length of DLL_Test printout.

Fri Feb 12 17:06:30 1999  Arturo Montes <mitosys@colomsat.com.co>

        * ace/config-sco-5.0.0-CC-fsu-pthread.h: removed this config
          file, because it's not used.

Fri Feb 12 16:36:55 1999  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/SOCK_IO.{h,i,cpp} (send,recv): Added back the iovec version
          of send/recv back to maintain backward compatibility.  Thanks to
          Steve for pointing this out.

Fri Feb 12 15:37:10 1999  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Makefile: split FILES up into subsets.  See
          docs/ACE-subsets.html for more information.

Fri Feb 12 12:31:29 1999  Ossama Othman  <othman@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Makefile: Removed blank line that was added when troubleshooting
          the cvs log problem.  The extra line cause Digital Unix's make to
          complain about a missing separator.

Fri Feb 12 09:19:21 1999  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/config-sunos5.5.h: added ACE_HAS_STANDARD_CPP_LIBRARY and
          ACE_USES_STD_NAMESPACE_FOR_STDCPP_LIB #defines with Sun CC 5.0.
          Thanks to Diethard Ohrt <Diethard.Ohrt@siemens.at> for
          providing these.

Thu Feb 11 15:05:42 1999  Darrell Brunsch <brunsch@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE-INSTALL.html: Reworded the first step of the Windows
          NT installation to be a bit clearer.

Thu Feb 11 14:30:35 1999  Darrell Brunsch <brunsch@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/ace_dll.dsp: Fixed Alpha Configuration.

Thu Feb 11 03:48:50 1999  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/CORBA_macros.h: Added #pragma once and ACE_CORBA_MACROS_H to
          prevent duplicate inclusion of this file.

          Added a new macro ACE_ANY_EXCEPTION to denote the name of the
          CORBA exception caught by the ACE_CATCHANY.  Thanks to Lothar
          Werzinger <lwerzinger@krones.de> for suggesting this.

Wed Feb 10 23:01:16 1999  Darrell Brunsch <brunsch@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/config-win32-common.h: Made a better effort at finding out
          if the files are compiled against the correct run-time
          libraries.  Now _DLL is checked to see if it is defined for
          ACE_HAS_DLL != 0 builds, and if it is not defined for static
          builds.

          This should help diagnose the problem of not using (Debug)
          Multithreaded DLL run-time libraries in clients that use DLL
          versions of ace (one symptom of this mistake is errno not
          working correctly because of one copy being defined in the DLL
          and one in the program itself).

Wed Feb 10 22:19:33 1999  James CE Johnson  <jcej@chiroptera.tragus.org>

        * docs/tutorials/014/stream.cpp : Removed the __LINE__ displays.
        * docs/tutorials/014/page01.html : Added Kirthika's abstract

        * docs/tutorials/015/page01.html : Added Kirthika's abstract
        * docs/tutorials/015/page12.html : Oops... Wrong intro text.
        * docs/tutorials/015/Protocol_Stream.cpp : Typos fixed
        * docs/tutorials/015/Protocol_Task.cpp : Typos fixed

Wed Feb 10 15:04:26 1999  Ossama Othman  <othman@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Makefile: added Pair_T.cpp and Template_Instantiations.cpp
          to the TEMPLATE_FILES list/variable.  They were missing.
        * tests/Conn_Test.cpp (spawn_processes): initialized
          pid_t *children_ptr to zero to prevent "uninitialized"
          warnings from egcs 1.1.1.

Wed Feb 10 14:16:25 1999  Ossama Othman  <othman@cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/Message_Queue_Test.cpp (performance_test): initialized
          ACE_Message_Block **send_block to zero to prevent "uninitialized"
          warnings from egcs 1.1.1.

Wed Feb 10 14:02:46 1999  Ossama Othman  <othman@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/ACE.cpp (get_ip_interfaces): initialized struct ifreq * ifs
          to zero to prevent "uninitialized" warnings from egcs 1.1.1.

Wed Feb 10 10:53:59 1999  Carlos O'Ryan  <coryan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * examples/IPC_SAP/TLI_SAP/ftp-server.cpp:
          Fixed several minor syntax errors.

Tue Feb 09 16:54:10 1999  Jeff Parsons  <parsons@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/CDR_Stream.cpp:
          Put the 'XXX_DISABLE_SWAP_ON_READ' code back into the
          ACE_INputCDR methods read_array(), read_2(), read_4(),
          read_8() and read_16(). I didn't realize at first how
          crucial that is to the Boeing folks. Thanks to Carlos
          for bringing this to my attention.

Tue Feb 09 16:07:32 1999  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Synch.{h,i,cpp}: Removed classes ACE_Null_Mutex_Guard and
          ACE_Thread_Mutex_Guard since there doesn't seem any need for
          them any more.  They should be replaced by
          ACE_Guard<ACE_Null_Mutex> and ACE_Guard<ACE_Thread_Mutex>.  If
          by any chance you still need to use them, add
          ACE_USES_OBSOLETE_GUARD_CLASSES into your config.h file.

        * ace/Local_Tokens.h: Replaced ACE_Null_Mutex_Guard and
          ACE_Thread_Mutex_Guard with ACE_Guard<ACE_Null_Mutex> and
          ACE_Guard<ACE_Thread_Mutex>.

Tue Feb  9 16:12:42 1999  James CE Johnson  <jcej@chiroptera.tragus.org>

        * docs/tutorials/{010|011}/task.{h|cpp} : barrier_ doesn't need to be a
        pointer since Doug moved n_threads to the ctor.  Minor typos
        corrected also.

        * docs/tutorials/010/message_queue.cpp :  Typos...

        * docs/tutorials/002/server.cpp: Added call to notify() in the
        signal handler so that ^C will exit as expected.

Tue Feb 09 13:57:23 1999  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/DLList_Test.cpp (main): The test should log the result to
          DLList_Test.log, not ACE_DLList_Test.log.

        * tests/run_tests.{sh,vxworks,psosim}: Added DLList_Test.

        * tests/run_tests.bat: Removed DLL_Test.

        * ace/ACE.cpp (ldfind): Win32 only.  Made sure we always look for
          the DLL at the current directory first on Win32 which is the
          default behavior on Win32.

        * ace/ace_{dll,lib}.dsp: Removed entries of Service_Record.{h,i}.
          Thanks to David for noticing this.

Tue Feb 09 10:21:33 1999  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Service_Types.{i,cpp},README: removed obsolete references to
          Service_Record.

        * tests/MT_Reactor_Timer_Test.cpp (main): added printout with numbers
          of expected and actual events, if result is not ACE_MAX_TIMERS + 2

        * include/makeinclude/wrapper_macros.GNU: added BUILD line with both
          shared_libs and static_libs enabled, so that individual Makefiles
          don't need a BUILD line.

        * docs/ACE-subsets.html: updated to reflect current ACE status.

Mon Feb 08 14:32:43 1999  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * docs/exceptions.html: Added guidelines of switching from TAO try
          macros to ACE try macros.  Other cosmetic changes.

Mon Feb  8 13:54:32 1999  Yamuna Krishnamurthy  <yamuna@cs.wustl.edu>

        * docs/tutorials/011/task.cpp :
        In the open return this->activate (THR_NEW_LWP,
        this->n_threads_); was taking an udefined variable threads.

        * docs/tutorials/011/message_queue.cpp:
        Corrected Compilation error due to a typo (static misspelt as
        statuc!!!)

Mon Feb  8 09:21:10 1999  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Map_T.h,
          ace/Pair_T.h: Aded parens around the #pragma implementation file
          names so the AIX compiler would be happy.  Thanks to Martin
          Krumpolec <krumpo@pobox.sk> for reporting this.

Mon Feb 08 00:39:49 1999  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.6.21 released.

Sun Feb  7 22:48:01 1999  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/CORBA_macros.h (ACE_THROW_RETURN): The second macro argument
          was missing.

Sun Feb  7 22:32:21 1999  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/CORBA_macros.h: It wasn't clear why the ACE_THROW_RETURN
          macro for non-NT platforms wasn't taking a second RETV
          parameter.  I've fixed this, however.

Sun Feb 07 13:55:15 1999  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * include/makeinclude/platform_sunos5_sunc++.GNU: added
          comment about possibly needing -compat=4 with Sun CC 5.0.
          Thanks to Sush Bankapura <Sush.Bankapura@sylantro.com> for
          reporting success with it.

Sun Feb  7 00:43:32 1999  Jeff Parsons  <parsons@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/CDR_Stream.cpp:
          Turns out that read_boolean_array was declared, but
          the body was missing (?).

Sat Feb  6 22:38:40 1999  Jeff Parsons <parsons@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE_wrappers/tests/CDR_Test.cpp:
          Changed #include file name to ace/CDR_Stream.h (the new
          source file name).

Sat Feb  6 22:21:14 1999  Carlos O'Ryan  <coryan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/CDR_Stream.h:
        * ace/CDR_Stream.cpp:
          Fixed the write_boolean_array() method; it only needs a const
          array of booleans.

Sat Feb  6 22:07:45 1999  Jeff Parsons <parsons@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/CDR.{h,i,cpp}:  Renamed these as...
        * ace/CDR_Stream.{h,i,cpp}:  Mustn't have files with the
          same name (the TAO files) for the sake of some compilers.
        * Makefile:
        * ace_dll.dsp:
          Changed to reflect the renaming above.

Sat Feb  6 20:30:51 1999  Carlos O'Ryan  <coryan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/CDR.h:
        * ace/CDR.i:
        * ace/CDR.cpp:
          Fixed some indentation and style problems.

Sat Feb 06 07:47:20 1999  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/test_config.h (~ACE_Test_Output): wrapped use of
          cerr with #ifndef ACE_LACKS_IOSTREAM_TOTALLY.

Sat Feb 06 02:41:07 1999  Irfan Pyarali  <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/Map_Test.cpp: The hell of explicit template instantiation.
          Someone please save me from these stupid compilers.

        * ace/Map: Broken g++ (2.7) has deformed my beautiful code based
          on typedefs and forced me to use their basic form.  However,
          users should continue to use the typedefs provided as I do in
          the Map_Test.

Fri Feb 05 21:57:24 1999  Irfan Pyarali  <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Map_T: Added a new Map mini framework to ACE.  The classes
          in this mini framework allows the Map interface to be used
          without caring about the specific Map implementation being used.
          There is the class hierarchy of the framework:

                        forwards
          ACE_Iterator  -------->  ACE_Iterator_Impl (abstract)

          ACE_Iterator_Impl is subclassed by:

          - ACE_Map_Impl_Iterator_Adapter<IMPLEMENTATION>
          - ACE_Active_Map_Manager_Iterator_Adapter
          - ACE_Hash_Map_Manager_Ex_Iterator_Adapter
          - ACE_Map_Manager_Iterator_Adapter

                                forwards
          ACE_Reverse_Iterator  -------->  ACE_Reverse_Iterator_Impl (abstract)

          ACE_Reverse_Iterator_Impl is subclassed by:

          - ACE_Map_Impl_Reverse_Iterator_Adapter<IMPLEMENTATION>
          - ACE_Active_Map_Manager_Reverse_Iterator_Adapter
          - ACE_Hash_Map_Manager_Ex_Reverse_Iterator_Adapter
          - ACE_Map_Manager_Reverse_Iterator_Adapter

          ACE_Map is subclassed by:

          - ACE_Map_Impl<IMPLEMENTATION>
          - ACE_Active_Map_Manager_Adapter
          - ACE_Hash_Map_Manager_Ex_Adapter
          - ACE_Map_Manager_Adapter

          Also included in the framework is a Key Generator class and a
          Key Adapter class.  The Key Generator class is used by some map
          adapters to generate keys since the maps they adapt do not
          generate keys. The Key Adapter class is used by the active map
          adapter to allow encoding and decoding of active keys into user
          keys.

          Note that the iterators use the bridge pattern while the map
          class uses an abstract base class based inheritance approach.
          The reason for this is that STL containers return the iterators
          by value.  An abstract base class cannot be returned by value.

          An alternative design would be to add an abstract base class
          that the ACE maps would derive from.  Unfortunately, this would
          break many things including the ability to add these maps to
          shared memory and explicit template instantiations.

          This mini framework would have been idle to apply the external
          polymorphism pattern.  However, the ACE map classes are
          different enough that adaption was necessary.  This turned out
          to be a blessing in disguise since I was able to add extra
          common functionality such as the key generator and key adapter
          to the map adapters.  I did add the external polymorphic
          subclasses to the framework for future use.

          The classes in this framework are as close STL containers as I
          would dare to make them ;) Thanks to Carlos for helping design
          them.

        * tests/Map_Test: New test to illustrate and test the workings of
          the new ACE Map classes. There are two aspect to this test:
          (a) functionality testing includes testing the iterators and
          various operations, and (b) performance testing to compare the
          relative performance of the maps.

        * ace/Pair: Added new Pair class to ACE that holds instances of
          the template arguments.  Also, added a Reference_Pair class that
          only hold references of the template arguments.

        * ace/Hash_Map_Manager_T.* (ACE_Hash_Map_Manager_Ex):
        * ace/Map_Manager.* (Map_Manager):
          Added new rebind() methods to make interface compatible with
          other maps.  Also, fixed the constness of some functions.

        * ace/Hash_Map_Manager.h: Fixed order of inclusion of template
          code.

        * ace/Active_Map_Manager_T.h (ACE_Active_Map_Manager): Added new
          versions of bind, find, and unbind to reduce the number of data
          copies.

        * ace/Active_Map_Manager.h (ACE_Active_Map_Manager_Key): Added the
          ability for the active key to encode and decode into and out of
          a data stream.  This relieves the developer from concerning
          herself about the internal structure of the active key.

        * ace/config-win32-common.h: Define WIN32 if not already defined.

        * tests/SString_Test.cpp: Added testing for substring creation and
          comparisons.

        * ace/OS.h (ACE_dynamic_cast_*_ptr and ACE_dynamic_cast_*_ref):
          Added new macros to handle casting of template class.

        * tests/test_config.h: Removed global KEY class that was not being
          used anymore anyway.

Fri Feb 05 21:12:56 1999  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.6.20 released.

Fri Feb 05 12:02:31 1999  Steve Huston  <shuston@riverace.com>

        * tests/run_tests.sh: Added SHLIB_PATH support for HP-UX. Fixed
          the LD_LIBRARY_PATH setting to work if there was no path set
          on entry to the script.

        * ace/config-hpux-9.x.h, config-hpux-(10,11).x-hpc++.h:
          Removed ACE_HAS_BROKEN_ENUMS.  This affects the HP C++ compiler, not
          aC++.  I made this change based on David's experience with the
          enums and Green Hills, below.  If it causes any problems, let me
          know and I'll reset it.

Fri Feb 05 10:11:18 1999  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Log_Priority.h: changed ENSURE_32_BITS to LM_ENSURE_32_BITS,
          and its value from 0xffffffff to 0x7fffffff.  Green Hills 1.8.9
          properly complained that 0xffffffff doesn't fit into an int.

        * ace/config-sco-5.0.0-CC-fsu-pthread.h,config-sunos5.5.h,
          config-vxworks5.x.h: removed ACE_HAS_BROKEN_ENUMS, because
          it's not necessary with 0x7fffffff.

Thu Feb  4 23:11:26 1999  Carlos O'Ryan  <coryan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * websvcs/lib/URL_Addr.h:
        * websvcs/lib/URL_Addr.i:
          Added operator= to the ACE_URL_Addr classes.

        * websvcs/lib/URL_Addr.cpp:
          Fixed minor memory allocation problem for invalid HTTP
          addresses.
          It removes './' when creating relative addresses.

Wed Feb 03 21:50:09 1999  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/config-vxworks5.x.h: added ACE_HAS_BROKEN_ENUMS with
          Green Hills, because it's needed with 1.8.9.  And, added
          ACE_HAS_STANDARD_CPP_LIBRARY #define to 1, for Green Hills 1.8.9
          (with __STANDARD_CXX #defined) only, because it doesn't work with
          1.8.8.  Thanks to Jacob Jones <Jacob.J.Jones@notesmta.gd-is.com> for
          reporting these.

        * ace/config-sunos5.5.h: with Green Hills 1.8.9 (with
          __STANDARD_CXX #defined), added ACE_HAS_STANDARD_CPP_LIBRARY
          #define to 1.

Wed Feb 03 14:57:21 1999  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Thread_Manager.h (ACE_At_Thread_Exit[_Func]): Added
          ACE_Export keywords.  Thanks to Terry Rosenbaum
          <Terry.Rosenbaum@Radiology.MSU.edu> for pointing this out.

        * ace/Service_Config.{h,i,cpp}: Added one more argument to open
          methods that allows ignoring the default svc.conf file.  You can
          still open svc.conf files using the -f option.

Wed Feb 03 10:12:14 1999  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * bin/make_release: fixed release_filter so that it doesn't put
          CVS files into the release.

        * ace/Object_Manager.h: updated comments to reflect that
          ACE_HAS_NONSTATIC_OBJECT_MANAGER is now #defined in
          several ace/config files, including that for Win32.
          Thanks to Dave Meyer <dmeyer@std.saic.com> for pointing
          that out.

Wed Feb  3 09:30:11 1999  Carlos O'Ryan  <coryan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * websvcs/lib/URL_Addr.cpp:
          Fixed some memory leaks.
          HTTP_Addr::create_relative_address supports the #label syntax.

Wed Feb 03 07:02:49 1999  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/CDR_Test.cpp: commented out ACE_Auto_Basic_Array_Ptr<CDR:Char>
          explicit instantiation, because it's in ace/Memory_Pool.cpp.

Tue Feb  2 21:35:21 1999  James CE Johnson  <jcej@chiroptera.tragus.org>

        * docs/tutorials/007/client_handler.h:
        * docs/tutorials/007/thread_pool.h:
          A couple of syntax goofs.  I'm surprised it compiled for anyone!

        * docs/tutorials/007/thread_pool.h:
          Changed ACE_Time_Value(0.25) to ACE_Time_Value(0,250000)

        * docs/tutorials/*/Makefile:
          Added '.depend' to the list of files removed by the CLEAN
          target.  I shoulda' done this the other day.

Tue Feb  2 20:02:22 1999  Darrell Brunsch <brunsch@cs.wustl.edu>

        * bin/make_release: Added .gz to the list of binary file extensions.

Tue Feb  2 19:28:46 1999  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@ace.cs.wustl.edu>

        * docs/tutorials: ACE-ified the first 11 tutorials.  I hope
          James still recognizes this stuff now ;-)

Tue Feb  2 19:12:50 1999  James CE Johnson  <jcej@chiroptera.tragus.org>

        * docs/tutorials/001/logger.h (class Logging_Handler):
          Incorporated Pradeep's suggestion to get rid of the memset() and
          use the recv() return value to drop in the null-termination.

Tue Feb  2 14:19:30 1999  Darrell Brunsch <brunsch@cs.wustl.edu>

        * websvcs/websvcs.dsw:
        * websvcs/lib/websvcs.dsw:
        * websvcs/lib/websvcs.dsp:
        * websvcs/tests/tests.dsw:
        * websvcs/tests/Test_URL_Addr.dsp:
          Added MSVC project files for the websvcs library.

        * websvcs/lib/URL_addr.cpp:
          Now correctly exports classes in DLLs.

Tue Feb  2 12:48:34 1999  Jeff Parsons  <parsons@cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/CDR_Test.cpp:
          Changed the template type of the auto_ptr for char. We were
          getting a Purify FMR message on Unix.

Tue Feb  2 12:27:13 1999  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/ACE.cpp: Added an ACE_UNUSED_ARG for program_name for
          ACE::daemonize().  Thanks to David Levine for reporting this.

        * ace/OS.h: Generalized the WIF* macros so that they will be
          defined on any platform that lacks them, not just NT.  Thanks to
          David Levine for reporting this.

Tue Feb 02 08:58:32 1999  Steve Huston  <shuston@riverace.com>

        * tests/MT_Reactor_Timer_Test.cpp: Moved definition of status outside
          of ACE_HAS_THREADS condition since it's used in either case.  Thanks
          to Frederic Andres <andres@rd.nacsis.ac.jp> for this fix.

Mon Feb 01 23:16:34 1999  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.6.19 released.

Mon Feb 01 22:06:40 1999  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * bin/make_release (create_kit): fixed typo, bin_files
          instead of binfiles.

Mon Feb 01 21:24:45 1999  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.6.18 released.

Mon Feb  1 21:02:26 1999  Darrell Brunsch <brunsch@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/ace_dll.dsp: Some template files were being compiled
          in the Release/Unicode/Alpha configs.  This is now not the
          case.

Mon Feb  1 13:49:11 1999  Carlos O'Ryan  <coryan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/config-linux-common.h:
          Added a definition for ACE_TIMER_SKEW, apparently it is only
          needed in multiple CPU machines (with SMP enabled); but it did
          solve the problems with MT_Reactor_Timer_Test.

Mon Feb 01 13:08:11 1999  Jeff Parsons <parsons@cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/CDR_Test.cpp:
          Used an auto_ptr to manage a string sent to string_read(). I
          had included the .h file for auto ptrs (Carlos corrected my
          typo, see below), but had never checked in the code using
          auto_ptr.

Mon Feb 01 12:54:11 1999  Steve Huston  <shuston@riverace.com>

        * ace/NT_Service.(h i): Some fixes provided by Martin Krumpolec
          <krumpo@pobox.sk> - thanks to Martin for these!
          - Supplied missing ctor for name/desc variant.
          - svc() method is not pure virtual any longer to prevent SCP-type
            applications from having to override it and never use it.

Mon Feb  1 12:04:35 1999  Darrell Brunsch <brunsch@cs.wustl.edu>

        * bin/make_release: Added zip and gif to the binary files in
          zips.

Mon Feb 01 12:00:55 1999  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/config-sunos5.5.h: With CC 5.0, enabled explicit template
          instantiation and added ACE_LACKS_ACE_IOSTREAM.  Early versions
          of CC 5.0 seem to have problems with automatic template
          instantiation and ACE_IOStream.

        * include/makeinclude/platform_sunos5_sunc++.GNU: added CC 5.0
          support to enable explicit template instantiation, and disable
          inlining by default.

        Thanks to Diethard Ohrt <Diethard.Ohrt@siemens.at> for confirming
        that above fixes allow ACE and TAO to build with CC 5.0.

        * include/makeinclude/platform_sunos5_{g++,ghs}.GNU: removed -lw
          from libs.  It's not necessary, and apparently causes problems
          on Solaris 2.6, because libc now includes the code that was
          formerly in libw.  Thanks to Steve Coleman <Steve.Coleman@jhuapl.edu>
          for reporting this.

Mon Feb  1 10:41:09 1999  Carlos O'Ryan  <coryan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/CDR_Test.cpp:
          There was a typo in a included filename.

Mon Feb  1 08:39:15 1999  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@ace.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Synch.h: Clarified that the ACE_Semaphore::acquire() is in
          absolute, rather than relative, time.  Thanks to Jacques
          Salerian <Jacques.Salerian@era.ericsson.se> for reporting this.

Sun Jan 31 20:10:23 1999  Jeff Parsons <parsons@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.h:
          Just renamed the CDR byte order macros to something more
          reasonable.

Sun Jan 31 18:19:45 1999  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@ace.cs.wustl.edu>

        * docs/tutorials/Makefile: Now we can build the UNSHAR SHAR HTML
          right from the top-level.  Thanks James!

        * tests/Process_Strategy_Test: Updated the test to use ACE::fork()
          and the new "avoid zombies" feature of ACE_Process_Strategy.

        * ace/ACE: Added a new version of fork() that can avoid creating
          zombies.  Thanks to Garry Brother <gmbroth@romulus.ncsc.mil> for
          this code.

        * ace/Strategies_T: Changed the ACE_Process_Strategy so that
          programmers can designate to not create zombies.  Thanks to
          Garry Brother <gmbroth@romulus.ncsc.mil> for this suggestion.

        * ace/ACE.cpp (daemonize): Only do a chdir if pathname != 0.

        * ace/ACE: Added a "program_name" argument to daemonize() so that
          we can set the program name.

        * docs/tutorials: Reformatted all the header files to conform
          to the ACE programming style.

Sun Jan 31 16:09:55 1999  Jeff Parswons >parsons@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE_wrappers/tests/CDR_Test.cpp:
          Plugged a memory leak in a string read from the CDR stream.
          Thanks to Sangwoo Jin <swjinjin@sei.co.kr> for pointing this out.

        * ace/CDR.{h,i,cpp}:
          Changed the name of the "base" class holding the constants to
          'CDR' from 'ACE_CDR'. In leveraging this code in the TAO cdr
          classes, I've discovered that there are many files that
          use these constants, so probably best to keep the original
          name. Also made minor changes to read_string, read_wstring,
          append_string and append_wstring to prevent a memeory leak
          if the operation fails.

Sun Jan 31 11:58:32 1999  James CE Johnson  <jcej@chiroptera.tragus.org>

        * docs/tutorials/{010|011|012|013|017}:
          In all of these, I'd overridden open() as open(int) to specify
          the number of threads in a thread-pool.  Steve Huston pointed
          out that this causes grief with some compilers.  I've changed
          all of these open(int) overrides to start(int) instead.

        * docs/tutorials/017/Barrier_i.cpp (threads):
          The thr_equal() call was changed to !thr_equal().

        * docs/tutorials/010/taks.cpp:
          Vishal recommended some extra commentation to make things a bit
          more clear WRT barrier synch.

        * docs/tutorials/013/page01.html:
          Added Kirthika's abstract.

Sat Jan 30 16:03:23 1999  Carlos O'Ryan  <coryan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * websvcs/lib/URL_Addr.h:
        * websvcs/lib/URL_Addr.cpp:
          The HTTP address class can create an URL_Addr from a path
          relative to it.  This is useful when interpreting an address
          inside an HTML document.

Sat Jan 30 13:34:00 1999  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * examples/Connection/non_blocking/test_sock_connector.cpp (main):
          Prevent the program from executing if compiled on non-NT Win32
          platform without Winsock2 installed.  Thanks to Greg Harrison
          <harrisog@erinet.com> for reporting ths problem.

1999-01-29  Irfan Pyarali  <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Mem_Map.cpp (map_it): NT makes no claims about replacing
          previous mapping at the specified address.  Therefore, I have
          added a new macro ACE_LACKS_AUTO_MMAP_REPLACEMENT which is
          defined if there is no system support for replacing any previous
          mappings. In this case, we unmap() before (potentially) mapping
          to the same location.  ACE_LACKS_AUTO_MMAP_REPLACEMENT is
          defined on NT.

Fri Jan 29 17:40:34 1999  Carlos O'Ryan  <coryan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * websvcs/lib/URL_Addr.h:
        * websvcs/lib/URL_Addr.cpp:
          We were not checking against nil strings in several places, also
          fixed some uninitialized members in the HTTP_Addr constructors.

        * bin/auto_compile:
          Added protection against simultaneous executions of the script;
          it checks for .disable file on the $LOGDIR directory, if present
          it does not execute; if not present it creates one; the file is
          deleted at program termination.

Fri Jan 29 16:25:22 1999  Steve Huston  <shuston@riverace.com>

        * ace/config-hpux-10.x-hpc++.h: Added ACE_HAS_GPERF.
        * apps/gperf/src/List_Node.cpp (ctor): Added ACE_const_cast to
          a char * initializer.
        * apps/gperf/src/Options.cpp: Fixed -j processing (typo).

        * docs/tutorials/017/barrier.cpp: Can't init a long with a thread ID.
          On HP-UX 10.20, it's a struct.
        * docs/tutorials/017/Barrier_i.cpp: Use ACE_OS::thr_equal to check
          equality of thread IDs.

        * docs/tutorials/019/server/cpp: Removed redefinition of char *s from
          'for' loop.  Works around a compiler issue, but isn't needed anyway.

        * include/makeinclude/platform_hpux_aCC.GNU: On HP-UX 10.20, suppress
          (future)error 667 and warning 495 to stop hearing about the problems
          with the system-supplied header files.  The compiler still says
          there was 1 future error, but at least it's easy to scan the output
          for real errors now.

Fri Jan 29 14:49:37 1999  Carlos O'Ryan  <coryan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/ACE.cpp:
        * ace/Basic_Types.h:
        * ace/INET_Addr.cpp:
        * ace/Memory_Pool.cpp:
        * ace/OS.cpp:

        * tests/Message_Queue_Test.cpp:
        * tests/SV_Shared_Memory_Test.cpp:
        * tests/run_tests.sh:
          Thanks to Doug Anderson <doug@clark.net> for this port of ACE to
          Cray machines.

Fri Jan 29 13:51:40 1999  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.h: Removed definition of ACE_Thread_State.

        * ace/Thread_Manager.*: Changed the ACE_Thread_State as a bunch of
          bit-masks so we don't overwrite the thread states accidentally.
          Thanks to Tom Dobridge <dobridge@persimmon.com> for reporting
          the bug.

1999-01-28  Irfan Pyarali  <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Hash_Map_Manager_T.cpp (open): this->close_i() must be
          called *before* the allocators are changed.

        * ace/Map_Manager.cpp (open): Close the old map (if any) before
          creating the new map.  This also make open() reentrant. Thanks
          to Zoran Ivanovic <zorani@pathcom.com> for reporting this bug.

Thu Jan 28 19:08:25 1999  Carlos O'Ryan  <coryan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Active_Map_Manager_T.h:
          Steve's change didn't make it, so I changed BASE to
          ACE_AMM_BASE, I don't know about the pragma.

Thu Jan 28 16:43:17 1999  Steve Huston  <shuston@riverace.com>

        * ace/Active_Map_Manager_T.(h i): Renamed BASE to ACE_AMM_BASE - BASE
          conflicted with something in AIX xlC.  Also fixed #pragma
          implementatation to work on xlC.

Thu Jan 28 10:04:39 1999  Carlos O'Ryan  <coryan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Hash_Map_Manager_T.cpp:
          Reverted to version 4.2, thanks to Kirthika for helping find
          this one.

Thu Jan 28 09:11:29 1999  Andreas Tobler <toa@pop.agri.ch>

        * ace/config-linuxppcr5.h: added this config file, for
          LinuxPPC R5 platforms.

Thu Jan 28 08:55:21 1999  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/config-mklinux.h: replaced ACE_HAS_SOCKLEN_T, removed
          __USE_XOPEN.  Thanks to Andreas Tobler <toa@pop.agri.ch> for
          these clarifying this.

Wed Jan 27 19:12:48 1999  James CE Johnson  <jcej@chiroptera.tragus.org>

        * docs/tutorials/008/*:
        * docs/tutorials/009/*:
        * docs/tutorials/011/*:
        * docs/tutorials/012/*:
          Updates from the reviewers.

Wed Jan 27 17:06:38 1999  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Makefile: removed some unprintable characters.

Wed Jan 27 16:31:01 1999  Ossama Othman  <othman@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Makefile: Added LOCK_SOCK_Acceptor to TEMPLATE_FILES list.

Wed Jan 27 14:50:13 1999  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * examples/Service_Configurator/Misc/main.cpp: Changed to open the
          Service_Config object with ignore_static_svc set to 0.  That
          allows this example to use static service.  (By default, static
          services are not loaded.)  Thanks to Arturo Montes
          <mitosys@colomsat.com.co> for reporting this.

Wed Jan 27 13:47:00 1999  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * include/makeinclude/platform_vxworks5.x_g++.GNU: use
          double double quotes around COMPILE argument to ace_ld,
          but only on WIN32 hosts.  Thanks to Peter Weat <weatp@syntron.com>
          for figuring this out.

Wed Jan 27 13:04:55 1999  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.6.17 released.

Wed Jan 27 12:32:22 1999  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE-INSTALL.html,include/makeinclude/platform_vxworks5.x_g++.GNU:
          default PERL_PATH to "perl", and added notes to set it to the full
          perl path if perl is not on your path.

Wed Jan 27 10:16:06 1999  Carlos O'Ryan  <coryan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * docs/ACE-guidelines.html:
          Added an entry for the creation of files containing template
          code.

Tue Jan 26 20:44:36 1999  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/SOCK_IO.cpp (send,recv): Changed to use sendv/recvv to
          handle variable arguments send/recv.

        * ACE-INSTALL.html: Fixed the dead link to CE-status.  Thanks to
          Mike Preradovic <michael_preradovic@epicdata.com> for reporting
          this.

Tue Jan 26 14:38:11 1999  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * include/makeinclude/platform_vxworks5.x_g++.GNU: expanded
          the information on the PERL_PATH environment variable for
          NT hosts.  Thanks to Peter Weat <weatp@syntron.com> for
          reporting this.

Tue Jan 26 13:40:51 1999  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/High_Res_Timer.cpp (elapsed_time_incr): Rearranged the
          formula to avoid compilation errors for platforms without
          ULONGLONG.  Thanks to David for the tip.

Tue Jan 26 12:01:19 1999  Jeff Parsons <parsons@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE_wrappers/tests/CDR_Test.dsp:
        * ACE_wrappers/tests/CDR_Test.cpp:
          Added lines to the test code to send the output to
          the log file, and deleted the unnecessary Header
          Files folder in the project.
        * ace/CDR.{i,cpp}:
          Relocated the longdouble comparison operators'
          definitions, and moved a misplaced '}', which
          were causing build errors.

Tue Jan 26 10:55:02 1999  Carlos O'Ryan  <coryan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Active_Map_Manager.h:
          The _T.h file has to be included *after* the inclusion of the .i
          file, otherwise the template may not see the inline functions;
          the problem only showed up on IRIX.

Mon Jan 25 22:11:36 1999  Jeff Parsons <parsons@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE_wrappers/tests/CDR_Test.dsp:
        * ACE_wrappers/tests/tests.dsw:
        * ACE_wrappers/tests/versions_tests/CDR_Test.dsp:
        * ACE_wrappers/tests/versions_tests/version_tests.dsw:
        * ACE_wrappers/tests/run_tests.sh:
        * ACE_wrappers/tests/run_tests.psosim:
        * ACE_wrappers/tests/run_tests.bat:
        * ACE_wrappers/tests/run_tests.vxworks:
          Fixed the project files (they had incorrrect project
          settings, I think) and updated the workspace files.
          Also, on a tip from Nanbor, added CDR_Test to the
          various run_tests files.

Mon Jan 25 20:22:01 1999  Jeff Parsons <parsons@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/CDR.{h,i,cpp}:
        * ace/Basic_Types.h:
        * ACE_Wrappers/tests/CDR_Test.cpp:
          Better design of ACE CDR, compiles and runs on NT, g++
          and CC.

Mon Jan 25 09:35:42 1999  Steve Huston  <shuston@riverace.com>

        * ace/ACE.cpp (handle_timed_complete): If connect times out, set
          errno to ETIMEDOUT, not ETIME.  Matches what will happen if a
          simple blocking connect times out.

        * ace/OS.i (ACE_OS::accept, ACE_OS::recv): (only non-Win32), if
          call fails and errno is EAGAIN, change it to EWOULDBLOCK.

        * tests/MT_SOCK_Test.cpp: Remove EAGAIN hacks; above changes fix
          this for all programs.

Sun Jan 24 22:04:42 1999  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * docs/ACE-guidelines.html: added operator==/!= guideline.

Sun Jan 24 20:25:44 1999  Irfan Pyarali  <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace: When a class provides operator==, it must also provide
          operator!=.  Also, both these operators should be const.

          Fixed the above violations in:

          ACE_TSS_Ref
          ACE_Thread_ID
          ACE_Registry::Binding
          ACE_Registry::Name_Component
          ACE_Active_Map_Manager_Key

        * ace/Map_Manager: Renamed methods that may become identical if
          INT_ID is the same as size_t.  Thanks to Ossama for helping with
          this.

Sun Jan 24 19:46:55 1999  Jeff Parsons <parsons@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/CDR.{h,i,cpp}:
        * ace/Basic_Types.h:
          Made some fixes to make DEC cxx happy, but I'm going to
          undo many of the typedefs and change the design. These
          changes will hopefully lead to a clean build with cxx,
          but the CDR classes are not yet in finished form.

Sun Jan 24 19:26:34 1999  Irfan Pyarali  <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/SString.cpp (set): Fixed usage case of when the incoming
          string is not zero but the length specified is zero.

        * tests/SString_Test.cpp (main): Added zero sized strings and
          single character strings to the test.

Sun Jan 24 19:09:45 1999  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/config-win32-common.h
          (ACE_HAS_WORKING_EXPLICIT_TEMPLATE_DESTRUCTOR): VC apparently
          does it right.

Sun Jan 24 17:22:02 1999  Ossama Othman  <othman@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/SString.cpp (substring): the variable "length" was misspelled
          on one of the lines in the method.

Sun Jan 24 16:17:58 1999  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/README:

        * ace/config-osf1-4.0.h:
        * ace/config-psos-diab.h:
        * ace/config-psos-tm.h: Replace ACE_HAS_BROKEN_EXPLICIT_DESTRUCTOR
          with ACE_HAS_WORKING_EXPLITCIT_TEMPLATE_DESTRUCTOR to reflect
          the true problem.  Thanks to Ossama for suggesting the name.

Sun Jan 24 16:20:17 1999  James CE Johnson  <jcej@chiroptera.tragus.org>

        * docs/ACE-FMM:
        Added an entry about the DONT_CALL flag to remove_handler().

        * docs/tutorials/00[45789]:
        * docs/tutorials/01[012]:
        Many changes from Yamuna, Pradeep, Kirthika and Ossama.  In all,
        there were 62 files changed.  Mostly the .html's due to
        recombination and colorization.

Sun Jan 24 14:23:07 1999  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/SString.cpp: The substring() method did not check for zero
          length.  Thanks to Mike Goldman for this fix.

Sun Jan 24 02:08:57 1999  Carlos O'Ryan  <coryan@cs.wus...tl.edu>

        * websvcs/lib/URL_Addr.cpp:
        * websvcs/lib/URL_Addr.h:
        * websvcs/lib/URL_Addr.i:
        * websvcs/tests/Test_URL_Addr.cpp:
          Added support for mailto: URLs

Sat Jan 23 23:53:29 1999  Carlos O'Ryan  <coryan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * websvcs/Makefile:
        * websvcs/lib/Makefile:
        * websvcs/lib/URL_Addr.h:
        * websvcs/lib/URL_Addr.i:
        * websvcs/lib/URL_Addr.cpp:
        * websvcs/tests/Makefile:
        * websvcs/tests/Test_URL_Addr.cpp:
          Added a small library to keep basic Web related wrappers. The
          first set is a small collection of URL address classes,
          including HTTP and FTP representations.

Sat Jan 23 23:26:17 1999  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/High_Res_Timer.{h,cpp} (elapsed_time_incr): Added a new
          function to access the incremental timer in nanosecond.

Sat Jan 23 23:08:27 1999  Jeff Parsons <parsons@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/CDR.{h,i,cpp}:
          Caught numerous inline ordering errors and mistakes in
          long double functions (not defined on NT) with g++.

Sat Jan 23 21:13:47 1999  Jeff Parsons <jp4@cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/tests.dsw:
        * tests/CDR_Test.dsp:
        * tests/Makefile:
        * tests/CDR_Test.cpp:
          New test in the suite for the new ACE CDR classes (see below).

        * TAO/TAOACE.dsw:
        * TAO/TAOACE_static.dsw:
        * ace/Makefile:
        * ace/CDR.{h,i,cpp}:
        * ace/OS.h:
        * ace/Basic_Types.h:
          CDR stuff modified from TAO library. Typedefs, default
          constants and macros added to OS.h and Basic_Types.h.
          There is now complete CDR functionality in ACE, except
          for the interpreter, and thus also no handling of Any
          or TypeCode types.

Sat Jan 23 17:50:22 1999  Steve Huston  <shuston@riverace.com>

        * tests/MT_SOCK_Test.cpp: 1. Check for EAGAIN as well as EWOULDBLOCK
          after an accept fail (this change will probably be removed at some
          point when we figure out how to handle EAGAIN/EWOULDBLOCK).
          2. Close the ACE_SOCK_Acceptor in the server before going into
          the "reap children" loop so any half-connected clients will get
          closed.

Sat Jan 23 17:25:48 1999  Kirthika Parameswaran  <kirthika@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Hash_Map_Manager_T.{h,cpp}: Reverted changes made since the
          ACE_Hash_Map_Manager_Ex was getting used in shared memory and
          hence could not have "virtual" methods.

Sat Jan 23 04:53:12 1999  Irfan Pyarali  <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Active_Map_Manager: Added a new associative container (map
          abstraction) that associates system generated keys with user
          specified values. Since the key is system generated, searches
          are very fast and take a constant amount of time.  This map uses
          a key that keeps information of the index and the generation
          count of the slot it represents.  Since the index information is
          part of the key, lookups are super fast and predictable.

          This performance of this map is truely awesome:

          - inserts O(1) worse case
          - lookups O(1) worse case
          - deletes O(1) worse case

        * ace/Map_Manager: Completely reworked the internals of the
          Map_Manager.  A number of problems were addressed:

          (a) Finding an empty slot took O(n).  New code takes O(1).

          (b) Resizing was lame as it increased by ACE_DEFAULT_MAP_SIZE
              everytime.  The new scheme is cool since it grows
              exponentially up to 64K and after that grow in chunks of
              32K.

          (c) Old scheme used a simple but inefficient <is_free_> flag.
              The new scheme uses two doubly linked list to track used and
              free slots. Note that this scheme still uses an array to
              manage the search structure but manages the two linked list
              on top of the array.  Thanks to Carlos for this cool idea.

          (d) current_sizewas broken.  This is fixed in the new code.

          (e) Inlined a bunch of small functions.

        * tests/SString_Test.cpp: Added empty string test.

        * ace/Containers_T.h (operator=): ACE_Array_Base must be fully
          qualified: ACE_Array_Base<T>.  Thanks to Susan Liebeskind
          <shl@janis.gtri.gatech.edu> for pointing this out.

        * tests/Map_Manager_Test.cpp (test_map_manager): Added
          Active_Map_Manager to the test.

Fri Jan 22 21:27:14 1999  Kirthika Parameswaran  <kirthika@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Hash_Map_Manager_T.h
          (class ACE_Hash_Map_Entry): Modified the destructor to be
          "virtual" so that it gets invoked on the destruction of its
          derived class objects.
          (class ACE_Hash_Map_Manager_Ex): Modified the destructor to be
          "virtual" so that it gets invoked on the destruction of its
          derived class objects.
          Modified shared_find () to be "virtual" so that it can be
          defined in its derived classes.
          Declared a virtual method for creating new entries for the map
          called create_entry ().

        * ace/Hash_Map_Manager_T.cpp
          (create_entry): Added this virtual method which creates a new
          map entry. This is necessary to allow the map to contain various
          types of map entries.
          (bind_i):
          (trybind_i):
          (unbind_i):
          Used create_entry () to obtain a new entry object.

        * ace/Hash_Purgable_Map_Manager_T.{h,i,cpp}:
          The ACE_Hash_Purgable_Map_Manager_Ex derives from
          ACE_Hash_Map_Manager_Ex and provides the feature of purging
          K entries from the map. The default purging algorithm is Least
          Recently Used, which has been implemented using a virtual timer
          that increments whenever an entry is looked up or used. Each
          entry has a purge_tag which is the timestamp updated by the
          timer value whenever it is referenced. The entry is an object of
          ACE_Hash_Purgable_Map_Entry class which is derived from
          ACE_Hash_Map_Entry.
          (purge): This is the method which flushes K entries from the
          map. Locks are held.
          (purge_i): This method also flushes K entries but w.o. locks
          being held.
          (create_entry): Creates an ACE_Hash_Purgable_Map_Entry object.
          (shared_find): This method is used to lookup and verify whether
          an entry is present in the map. Also, the purge_tag of the entry
          is updated with the current timer value.

        * tests/Purgable_Map_Manager.cpp: Added this test which
          illustrates the use of the Hash_Purgable_Map_Manager to maintain
          a cache map. Also displays the change in the map size on
          purging.

Fri Jan 22 16:10:35 1999  Steve Huston  <shuston@riverace.com>

        * ace/Select_Reactor_Base.cpp (ACE_Select_Reactor_Notify::handle_input)
          EAGAIN is also a legit errno value (not only EWOULDBLOCK) for end
          of data on pipe.  Makes count of dispatches returned from
          ACE_Select_Reactor's handle_events correct in the presence of
          notifications.

        * ace/OS.i (ACE_OS::sema_init): Always init s->name_ to 0, else it
          might be non-zero (and junk) when deleted.

        * ace/config-hpux11.h: Added an overrideable ACE_TIMER_SKEW of 10 msec.

Fri Jan 22 15:07:08 1999  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Containers_T.cpp: Yikes, don't delete the fixed stack since
          it wasn't allocated dynamically!  Thanks to Mike Goldman
          <whig@by.net> for this fix!

Fri Jan 22 13:08:00 1999  Chris Gill  <cdgill@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/ACE.{cpp, h}: added static methods ACE::gcd, which computes the
          greatest common divisor of two u_longs using Euclid's algorithm, and
          ACE::minimum_frame size, which computes the minimum enclosing frame
          size for two u_longs.

Thu Jan 21 14:25:58 1999  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/SString.h: changed !ACE_HAS_WINCE wrap of ostream
          operators to !ACE_LACKS_IOSTREAM_TOTALLY.

        * ace/OS.i (getuid): added static cast of -1 to uid_t on
          Chorus, to avoid compiler warning about change in sign.

        * ace/OS.h: moved (protected) MAXHOSTNAMELEN #define from
          pSOS and NT-only code to where its visible on all platforms.
          When we removed the #include of rpc.h, we lost the
          #define of MAXHOSTNAMELEN on Chorus.

Thu Jan 21 13:05:31 1999  Steve Huston  <shuston@riverace.com>

        * docs/tutorials/Makefile:  Removed include .depend to allow the
          whole set of tutorials to be built from the top.  Thanks to James
          Johnson for guiding this fix.

Wed Jan 20 19:47:16 1999  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.{h,i,cpp} (fopen): Reimplement fopen using Win32 APIs so
          ACE_OS::unlink behaves the same as it does on UNIX platforms.
          Both ACE_OS::open and ACE_OS::fopen have been corrected.
          There's also a ACE::open_temp_file which should be the prefered
          method to open temp files when ACE_HANDLE is used.  That's
          because Win32 tries to map the file opened by
          ACE::open_temp_file to memory.

        * ace/Parse_Node.cpp (symbol): <func> need to be initialized.
          Thanks to David for reporting the bug.

Wed Jan 20 17:37:21 1999  Steve Huston  <shuston@riverace.com>

        * ace/Log_Msg.h: Added "do {} while (0)" as defs for ACE_HEX_DUMP,
          ACE_ERROR, ACE_DEBUG when ACE_NLOGGING is defined.  Having null defs
          for these caused MSVC some problems.  Thanks to Doug Schmidt for
          giving (and explaining) the correct definitions.

Wed Jan 20 13:38:03 1999  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.i (readdir_r): added ACE_UNUSED_ARG (entry)
          without ACE_HAS_REENTRANT_FUNCTIONS.

        * docs/ACE-guidelines.html: added guideline for calling
          ACE_OS::unlink () immediately after opening a temporary file.

        * *.h: replaced () around #pragma implementation argument.  Thanks
          to Susan Liebeskind <susan.liebeskind@gtri.gatech.edu> and
          Steve Huston for reporting and confirming that it's necessary
          on AIX.

Wed Jan 20 01:48:21 1999  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Parse_Node.cpp (symbol): Remembered to pass down the
          "gobbler" in a Static_Function_Node.  Thanks to Eric C. Newton
          <ecn@smart.net> for reporting and providing the fix.

Tue Jan 19 17:52:49 1999  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/SString.h: Clarified the role of the <release> argument for
          the <set> method.  Thanks to Sudhanshu Garg
          <sg2@ladybug.cec.wustl.edu> for suggesting this.

Tue Jan 19 16:15:26 1999  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * OS.i,README,config-cygwin32-common.h,config-linux-common.h,
          config-psos-diab.h,config-psos-tm.h,config-psosim-g++.h,
          config-sco-5.0.0-mit-pthread.h,config-sco-5.0.0.h,
          config-tandem.h: removed removed include of rpc/rpc.h, and
          ACE_LACKS_RPC_H.  Thanks to Susan Liebeskind
          <susan.liebeskind@gtri.gatech.edu> for initially suggesting this,
          and to Russ Noseworthy for reporting another problem (on
          SunOS 5.6 w/o threads) with it.  ACE doesn't need it.

        * bin/g++dep: removed /project/doc/pkg/gnu/bin from PATH so that
          I can run make depend on Linux.

Tue Jan 19 12:14:09 1999  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@ace.cs.wustl.edu>

        * Makefile (CONTROLLED_FILES): Added ChangeLog-98b to the
          CONTROLLED_FILES macro.  Thanks to Susan Liebeskind
          <susan.liebeskind@gtri.gatech.edu> for suggesting this.

Tue Jan 19 10:24:00 1999  Chris Gill  <cdgill@cs.wustl.edu>

        * apps/JAWS/PROTOTYPE/HTTPU/HTTPU.{dsp, dsw}: converted to MSVC++ 6.0
          (and backward compatible) format.

        * apps/JAWS/PROTOTYPE/HTTPU/http_headers.{cpp, h}: fixed ACE_RB_Tree
          templates, template instantiations.  Thanks to Sridhar Sabella
          (ssabbella@cemax.com) for pointing this out.

Tue Jan 19 00:42:44 1999  Irfan Pyarali  <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * examples/Log_Msg/test_callback.cpp (log): Removed the use of
          cerr and used ACE_OS::printf() instead.

        * ace/Log_Record.cpp (print): Fixed comparison between signed and
          unsigned.  Thanks to David Levine for pointing this out.

Mon Jan 18 23:55:03 1999  Darrell Brunsch <brunsch@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE-INSTALL.html: Added more info on Alpha configuration
          problems and fixes.

Mon Jan 18 23:07:38 1999  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.cpp (open): Files opened with CreateFileA (on Win32 of
          course,) are now opened with FILE_SHARE_DELETE flag set.  This
          allows ACE_OS::unlink to work as it should.  However, I haven't
          figured out how to make unlink work with file opened with fopen
          yet.  Apparently, fopen does not open file with
          FILE_SHARE_DELETE.

Mon Jan 18 22:54:18 1999  Darrell Brunsch <brunsch@cs.w...ustl.edu>

        * ace/ace_dll.dsp:
        * ace/ace_lib.dsp:
          Updated NT Alpha configurations.

        * apps/gperf/src/gperf.dsp:
        * apps/gperf/src/gperf_lib.dsp:
          Added NT Alpha configurations.

Mon Jan 18 22:14:00 1999  James CE Johnson  <jcej@chiroptera.tragus.org>

        * docs/tutorials/011/message_queue.cpp:
        * docs/tutorials/011/page02.html:
        ACE_Message_Block::copy() will advance the wr_ptr() for us.
        Previously, I was doing that myself in run_test().  The test only
        worked because I never wrote data to the block after that.  If I
        had, things would have broken horribly.

Mon Jan 18 20:41:48 1999  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Message_Block.h: Clarified that the wr_ptr() is incremented
          by n as a result of the copy operation.  Thanks to Zoran
          Ivanovic <zorani@pathcom.com> for suggesting this.

        * ace/INET_Addr.h (ACE_INET_Addr): Changed the default for
          ipaddr_format to 1 (which is what it had been originally) rather
          than 0 since the original way is faster since it doesn't use
          DNS.  Thanks to Zoran Ivanovic <zorani@pathcom.com> for finding
          this.

Mon Jan 18 20:31:47 1999  James CE Johnson  <jcej@chiroptera.tragus.org>

        * docs/tutorials/006/client_handler.cpp:
        Typo...

        * docs/tutorials/006/*.html:
        * docs/tutorials/006/combine.shar:
        Colorized, added Kirthika's abstract.

Mon Jan 18 16:19:56 1999  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.cpp (open): If a file is open with _O_TEMPORARY flag set
          on Win32, we also set the FILE_ATTRIBUTE_TEMPORARY so OS will
          try to cache it in memory to speed up access.

        * ace/ACE.cpp (open_temp_file): On Win32, temporary file should be
          opened with _O_TEMPORARY flag set, not FILE_DELETE_ON_CLOSE.

        * include/makeinclude/wrapper_macros.GNU: My previous fix of
          avoiding multiple definition of ACE_NDEBUG was not correct.  Now
          the macro check where should the definition go to.  Thanks to
          David for showing me the right way to do this.

Mon Jan 18 11:23:06 1999  Carlos O'Ryan  <coryan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * include/makeinclude/platform_irix6.x-sgic++.GNU:
          Added the -multigot flag when building shared libraries,
          otherwise TAO/orbsvcs is too big.

Mon Jan 18 09:54:54 1999  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/config-sunos5.5.h: moved ACE_HAS_PRIOCNTL #define so
          that it's defined even without threads.  Thanks to
          Russ Noseworthy for reporting this.

        * ace/OS.cpp (lwp_getparams): removed ACE_MT_SAFE check
          that Doug added Saturday.  It's not necessary with the
          above fix to config-sunos5.5.h.

        * examples/Log_Msg/test_ostream.cpp: don't try to create the
          ofstream if ACE_LACKS_IOSTREAM_TOTALLY.  Also, removed
          declarations of unused argc/argv arguments because some
          g++ versions complain about them.

Mon Jan 18 08:17:49 1999  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/SOCK_IO.cpp,
          ace/SOCK_Dgram.cpp: Added

          ACE_UNUSED_ARG (timeout);

          to the #else part of the recv (iovec *) methods.  Thanks to Mike
          Goldman for reporting this.

Mon Jan 18 01:13:57 1999  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/CORBA_macros.h: ACE_TRY_NEW_ENV also needs to define a new
          CORBA::Environment even with native exceptions.  Mark exception
          caught by ACE_CATCH as unused arg to avoid compilation warnings.

Mon Jan 18 00:12:13 1999  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.6.16 released.

Sun Jan 17 16:40:22 1999  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/Reactor_Exceptions_Test.cpp (main): Changed the LM_INFO
          message to indicate that C++ exception support isn't ENABLED on
          a platform, rather than saying that it's not supported at all...

Sun Jan 17 15:35 1999  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/SString.cpp (operator<<): The operator<< used to print out
          ACE_WString caused an infinite loop on platform without UNICODE
          defined because we didn't convert the wide string on these
          platform.  However, since an ACE_WString always contains a wide
          string, the conversion from wide string to char string should
          always be done here.  Thanks to Scott Snyder
          <snyder@d0sgif.fnal.gov> for noticing this bug.

          (operator<<): Changed the ACE_SString and ACE_CString version to
          check against the case when the internal <rep_> contains 0.
          The ACE_CString version was printing out the string one char a
          time.  Can't see any reason why this is done like this.  Changed
          to print out the underlying <rep_> directly.

        Converted to the new (colorized) format used by T13 and beyond.
        I will convert the remaining tutorials (6-12) as each is reviewed.

Sat Jan 16 19:08:12 1999  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@ace.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/High_Res_Timer.cpp: Added #ifdef so high-res timers work
          correctly on KCC.  Thanks to Scott Snyder
          <snyder@d0sgif.fnal.gov> for contributing this.

        * tests/test_config.h: Updated randomize() so that it uses a
          "fixed" seed, so that it will produce "reusable" random numbers.

        * include/makeinclude/platform_linux_kcc.GNU (LD): Added the -lm
          flag.  Thanks to Scott Snyder <snyder@d0sgif.fnal.gov> for
          contributing this.

        * tests/run_tests.sh: Added an
          LD_LIBRARY_PATH=../netsvcs/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH so that we can
          use a relative name for the svc.conf files used in the
          Time_Service_Test and Tokens_Test.

        * ace/config-irix6.x-common.h: Added support for long double for
          KCC.  Thanks to Scott Snyder <snyder@d0sgif.fnal.gov> for
          contributing this.

        * ace/config-irix6.x-kcc.h: Added KCC support.  Thanks to Scott
          Snyder <snyder@d0sgif.fnal.gov> for contributing this.

        * ace/config-osf1-4.0.h: Added KCC support.  Thanks to Scott
          Snyder <snyder@d0sgif.fnal.gov> for contributing this.

        * ace/IOStream.h: Fixed up the PUT_CODE and GET_CODE macros so
          that they work with KCC.  Thanks to Scott Snyder
          <snyder@d0sgif.fnal.gov> for contributing this.

        * ace/Env_Value_T.h (ACE_Convert): Added a new ACE_Convert
          constructor for u_int so that TAO compiles correctly with KCC.
          Thanks to Scott Snyder <snyder@d0sgif.fnal.gov> for contributing
          this.

        * include/makeinclude/platform_osf1_4.0_kcc.GNU: Added a new
          platform config file for KCC.  Thanks to Scott Snyder
          <snyder@d0sgif.fnal.gov> for contributing this.

Sat Jan 16 18:13:29 1999  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * include/makeinclude/wrapper_macros.GNU: Commented out adding
          ACE_NDEBUG to CCFLAGS to avoid defining it twice.  Most (if not
          all) platforms include CFLAGS into CCFLAGS.  So, if "make
          debug=0" no longer work on your platform, then, you may need to
          add "CCFLAGS += $(CFLAGS)" into your platform_xxx.GNU.

Sat Jan 16 13:40:40 1999  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Proactor.cpp (schedule_timer): Had to add an
          ACE_SYNCH_RECURSIVE_THREAD_MUTEX in place of
          ACE_Recursive_Thread_Mutex to avoid problems when threads=0.

        * ace/OS.cpp (lwp_getparams): For some reason we had to
          add

          # if defined (ACE_HAS_STHREADS) || (defined (sun) && (ACE_MT_SAFE != 0))

          instead of

          # if defined (ACE_HAS_STHREADS) || defined (sun)

          to avoid problems when threads=0.

        * ace/Asynch_IO.cpp: Replaced some ACE_Thread_Mutex decls with
          ACE_SYNCH_MUTEX to avoid problems with threads=0.

        * ace/config-sunos5.6.h: If defined(_POSIX_C_SOURCE) &&
          _POSIX_C_SOURCE >= 199506L) || defined (__EXTENSIONS__) then
          #define ACE_HAS_SIGWAIT to avoid compilation errors.  Thanks to
          Russ Noseworthy for reporting this.

        * ace/OS.i: Fixed the ACE_OS::readdir_r() so that it doesn't fail
          if threads are disabled via "make threads=0".  Thanks to Russ
          Noseworthy for reporting this.

        * ace/FILE_Connector.h (ACE_FILE_Connector): Added the O_CREAT
          flag to the list of flags passed to connect().  This ensures
          that the file is created if it doesn't already exist.  Thanks to
          Pradeep Gore <pradeep@cs.wustl.edu> for reporting this.

Fri Jan 15 21:28:04 1999  Irfan Pyarali  <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Log_Msg (ACE_Log_Msg_Callback): Added an interface class
          used for getting logging callbacks.  Users who are interested in
          getting the logging messages directly, can subclass this
          interface and override the log() method. They must then register
          their subclass with the Log_Msg class and make sure that they
          turn on the ACE_Log_Msg::MSG_CALLBACK flag.

          Your log() routine is called with an instance of
          ACE_Log_Record.  From this class, you can get the log
          message, the verbose log message, message type, message
          priority, and so on.

          Remember that there is one Log_Msg object per thread.
          Therefore, you may need to register your callback object with
          many Log_Msg objects (and have the correct synchronization in
          the log() method) or have a separate callback object per
          Log_Msg object.

          Thanks to Chris Lahey <clahey@ix.netcom.com> for suggesting this
          and send patches.

        * examples/Log_Msg/test_callback.cpp: Added new example for
          Log_Msg. This program tests the Log_Msg abstraction wrt writing
          to user defined callback objects.

Fri Jan 15 21:10:25 1999  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/CORBA_macros.h: Made sure ACE_CORBA_HAS_EXCEPTIONS always
          gets set properly.  Added ACE_ADPOT_CORBA_ENV to reuse a
          existing CORBA::Environment variable.

Fri Jan 15 17:05:12 1999  Irfan Pyarali  <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Log_Record: Factored out the redundant formatting code.  The
          new scheme also allows the end user to get to verbose formatted
          string.  Thanks to Nanbor for helping out with this.

Fri Jan 15 17:15:18 EST 1999   James CE Johnson  <jcej@lads.com>

          Many changes from Ossama plus a new abstract (for T3) from
          Kirthika.

Fri Jan 15 14:40:26 1999  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/SOCK_IO,
          ace/SOCK_Dgram: Modified the recv(iovec *) and recvv(iovec *)
          methods so that they use select() to avoid spinning if no data
          is available.  Thanks to Mike Goldman <whig@by.net> for this
          fix.

Fri Jan 15 10:47:26 1999  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@ace.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Service_Repository.cpp: If a service being removed from the
          Service_Repository used the Service_Repository while being
          removed it could access objects that had already been deleted.
          Fix this by decrementing the current_size_ member in
          "real-time".  Thanks to Eric Newton for reporting this.

Fri Jan 15 08:08:31 1999  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.6.15 released.

Fri Jan 15 07:20:46 1999  Chris Gill  <cdgill@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.i: Fixed variable names in isatty () on NT

Fri Jan 15 03:45:46 1999  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * docs/exceptions.html: Rewrote the exception handling guildlines
          based on ACE's try macros.

Fri Jan 15 01:32:55 1999  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.6.14 released.

Fri Jan 15 00:03:32 1999  Irfan Pyarali  <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * examples/Log_Msg/test_ostream.cpp: Added new example for
          Log_Msg. This program tests the Log_Msg abstraction wrt writing
          to stderr and to a file.

Thu Jan 14 21:50:22 1999  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/CORBA_macros.h: Added a new set of try macros which help
          application developers write portable code that handles
          CORBA::Exception portably.  The macros will work with any ORB.

          The total number of macros has reduces significantly and they
          should be much easier to use because the rules all follow the
          same style.

          The new try macros should be prefered over the original try
          macro in $TAO_ROOT/TAO/try_macros.h because those macros will
          soon be *DEPRICATED* once we finished convert TAO to use the new
          macros.

          Please see ACE_wrappers/docs/exceptions.html for guidelines and
          rules of using ACE's try macros.

Thu Jan 14 20:41:33 1999  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@ace.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS: Moved some code around to consolidate the getuid() and
          isatty() functions.

        * ace/OS: Added support for the setuid() call.  Thanks to Susan
          Liebeskind <susan.liebeskind@gtri.gatech.edu> for suggesting
          this.

Thu Jan 14 16:18:37 EST 1999  James CE Johnson  <jcej@lads.com>

Thu Jan 14 11:46:25 1999  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@ace.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Synch_T.h: Pointed out that we can only parameterize
          ACE_Condition<> with ACE_Thread_Mutex and ACE_...Null_Mutex.
          Thanks to Knut-Havard Aksnes <knut@orion.no> for reporting
          this.

Thu Jan 14 02:33:37 1999  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.6.13 released.

Thu Jan 14 00:07:34 1999  Irfan Pyarali  <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * docs/tutorials/014/stream.cpp: Added #include "ace/streams.h".

          ChangeLog entry about the change.

Wed Jan 13 22:30:49 1999  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * include/makeinclude/platform_chorus_ghs.GNU: removed
          explicit link with libedgnoe.a, because GreenHills adds
          that implicitly.

        * ace/OS.h: added quick hack to ACE_HAS_BROKEN_EXPLICIT_DESTRUCTOR
          logic to allow compilation with g++.

Wed Jan 13 18:48:30 EST 1999  James CE Johnson  <jcej@lads.com>

          Fixed many NT issues found by Irfan.  Most are related to the
          fact that NT doesn't have SysV shared memory.

Wed Jan 13 04:45:59 1999  James C Hu  <jxh@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Cache_Object.{h,cpp}:

        * ace/Cache_Manager_T.{h,cpp}:
        * ace/Cache_Hash_T.{h,cpp}:
        * ace/Cache_Heap_T.{h,cpp}:
        * ace/Hash_Bucket_T.{h,cpp}:
          Supporting infrastructure for the new Filecache.  These classes
          form the basis of a generic in memory cache engine.

Wed Jan 13 02:17:57 1999  Irfan Pyarali  <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.cpp (writev): This function should use ACE::write_n
          instead of ACE::send_n.  Similarly, readv() should use
          ACE::read_n instead of ACE::recv_n.

        * ace/ACE.cpp (send): This function should use ACE_OS::sendv
          instead of ACE_OS::writev.  Similarly, recv() should use
          ACE_OS::recvv instead of ACE_OS::readv.

        * docs/tutorials:  Fixed all the NT project files.

Tue Jan 12 22:41:05 1999  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/config-freebsd.h: Uncommented ACE_HAS_SIGWAIT.  This is
          required for FreeBSD 2.2.8. Thanks to John Aughey
          <jha@FreeBSD.ORG> for reporting this.

        * ace/SOCK_IO.{h,i}:
        * ace/SOCK_Stream.{h,i} (sendv_n/recvv_n): Moved these functions
          from SOCK_IO to SOCK_Stream where it makes more sense to have
          the semantic of sending/receiving <n> bytes.

Tue Jan 12 19:52:26 1999  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE-INSTALL.html: Added more info on dynamically linking
          run-time libraries.

        * ace/SOCK_IO.{h,i,cpp} (sendv,recvv,sendv_n,recvv_n): Renamed
          vector send_n/recv_n.  There were name clashing since these
          methods have similar signatures to some send_n/recv_n in
          ACE_SOCK_Stream, they got hidden by the derived methods.
          Renaming them solve the problem.

Tue Jan 12 10:59:58 1999  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * include/makeinclude/platform_chorus_ghs.GNU: fixed location of
          libedgenoe.a, so that a symlink in $(GHS_DIR) is no longer necessary.
          Thanks to Steve Kay for reporting this.

        * ace/config-mklinux.h: removed ACE_HAS_SOCKLEN_T, addedUSE_XOPEN.
          Thanks to Andreas Tobler <toa@pop.agri.ch> for these updates.

Tue Jan 12 08:44:11 EST 1999  Aniruddha Gokhale  <gokhale@sahyadri.research.bell-labs.com>

        * ace/Acceptor.cpp (handle_close):

          Since the reactor_ data member is made private, we need to use
          its accessor method to retrieve it.

Tue Jan 12 02:12:38 1999  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.h (ACE_DES_NO_FREE,ACE_DES_FREE): These two macros
          shouldn't be treated differently no matter
          ACE_HAS_BROKEN_EXPLICIT_DESTRUCTOR is defined or not.
          Otherwise, virtual destructor won't work in one of the original
          definitions.

          There shouldn't be different different definitions for calling
          template destructor explicitly either.  However, we need to find
          that out.  The meaning of ACE_HAS_BROKEN_EXPLICIT_DESTRUCTOR
          seems to be reversed.  That needs to be fixed also.

Tue Jan 12 00:18:15 1999  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@ace.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Event_Handler.h: Moved the priority_ and reactor_ data
          members into the private section of the class since these can
          always be accessed via their accessor methods.  Thanks to Mike
          Goldman <whig@by.net> for reporting this.

Mon Jan 11 15:30:26 1999  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Process.{h,i} (get_process_attributes,get_thread_attributes):
          Removed the constness from the return value to avoid Intel C++
          warnings.  Thanks to Karel Zuiderveld
          <kzuiderveld@vitalimages.com> for reporting this.

        * bin/ADDIDL.DSM: A VB script to add new IDL files into DevStudio
          projects.   Thanks to Peter <weatp@syntron.com> for contributing
          this nice tool.

Mon Jan 11 12:54:26 1999  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@tango.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/SOCK_IO: Added const qualifiers to all the send*() and
          recv*() methods that take ACE_Time_Value values.  Thanks to Jody
          Hagins <jody@atdesk.com> for reporting this.

        * ace/SOCK_IO: Added a new send_n() method that uses the new
          ACE::sendv_n() method!

        * ace/ACE: Added a new sendv_n() and writev_n() method that sends
          all the bytes in the iovec!

        * ace/ACE.h (ACE): Added default values of 0 for ACE::writev() and
          ACE::readv().

        * examples/NT_Service: Tidied up the formatting to conform to the
          ACE programming guidelines.

Mon Jan 11 10:23:06 1999  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/config-freebsd-pthread.h: Added ACE_LACKS_READDIR_R.
        * ace/config-freebsd.h: Added ACE_LACKS_READDIR_R,
          ACE_HAS_NONCONST_MSGSND, ACE_LACKS_MALLOC_H.  ACE_HAS_SIGINFO_T
          only applies to 3.0 and above.  Thanks to Ivan Pascal
          <pascal@info.tsu.ru> for reporting the change.

Sun Jan 10 21:52:57 1999  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/Message_Queue_Notifications_Test.cpp (iterator_test):
          added comment explaining why a message queue size of 32 Kb
          is used, instead of the default of 16 Kb.

        * docs/ACE-guidelines.html: added guidelines for boolean types
          and function return values.

Sun Jan 10 17:33:29 1999  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@ace.cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/Message_Queue_Notifications_Test.cpp: Replaced delete mb
          with mb->release().  Thanks to Susan Liebeskind
          <susan.liebeskind@gtri.gatech.edu> for reporting this
          inconsistency.

        * ace/Task_T.h,
          ace/Message_Queue_T.h: Clarified the fact that the
          ACE_Time_Value arguments to the Message_Queue methods
          use absolute, rather than relative, time.  Thanks to
          Stanford S. Guillory <sguillory@vignette.com> for pointing out
          the need for this clarification.

Sun Jan 10 09:18:41 1999  Martin Krumpolec <krumpo@pobox.sk>

        * ace/Log_Msg.cpp (log): only re-enable tracing if it had
          not been explicitly disabled.

Sun Jan 10 01:06:18 1999  Irfan Pyarali  <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Log_Msg.cpp (log): Change call from exit() to abort().

        * ace/OS.i (abort): Added new function.

Sat Jan  9 22:05:07 1999  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * bin/tao_env.pl: A new perl script that help you translate _env
          to TAO_IN_ENV.

Sat Jan 09 10:53:37 1999  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Name_Proxy.cpp (open): swapped branches of conditional
          so that options.time_value () is used if USE_TIMEOUT is enabled.
          Thanks to Mike Goldman <whig@by.net> for reporting this.

Fri Jan 08 19:19:17 1999  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.h: Applied ACE_TEXT to the definition of
          ACE_DEFAULT_TEMP_FILE on Win32.  Thanks to
          <gwross@west.raytheon.com> for reporting this.

Fri Jan 08 13:24:12 1999  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Synch.h (ACE_Process_Mutex): made data members
          private instead of public.  Thanks to Peter Gross
          <pgross@signalsoftcorp.com> for reporting this.

        * examples/Threads/reader_writer.cpp: removed volatile
          qualifier from declaration of "shared_thr_id", so that
          the file will compile on DU 4.0 with DCE threads.  The
          volatile qualifier caused a type mismatch with
          ACE_thread_t.  And, it's not necessary, because all
          access of the shared_thr_id is guarded.

        * include/makeinclude/platform_chorus_ghs.GNU: added gnuch68
          to -alttools, and removed bin from AR; use libedgnoe.a instead
          of libedg.a with GHS 1.8.9.1.

        * ace/config-sunos5.5.h: don't define ACE_HAS_XPG4_MULTIBYTE_CHAR
          with ghs, because its version 1.8.9 doesn't seem to support it.
          Also, with ghs, replaced the __ctype [] declaration with an
          #include of <stdlib.h>, because that's cleaner.  Finally,
          added ACE_HAS_BROKEN_ENUMS for ghs (1.8.9).

Thu Jan 07 09:05:27 1999  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/config-sunos5.5.h: added ACE_HAS_SIG_C_FUNC with
          Sun CC >= 4.2.  Sun CC 5.0 needs it; Sun CC 4.2 doesn't
          object to it on SunOS 5.5.1, 5.6, and 5.7.  Thanks to
          Neil Cohen <nbc@aikisoft.com> for figuring out how to
          compile ACE with Sun CC 5.0.

        * include/makeinclude/platform_sunos5_sunc++.GNU: only
          use -features=castop and -rtti with Sun CC 4.2.  CC 5.0
          doesn't support them; I assume that it enables RTTI by
          default.  Thanks to Neil Cohen <nbc@aikisoft.com> for
          reporting this.

        * ACE-INSTALL.html: added ACE_HAS_REGEX #undef suggestion for
          shared lib link problems with egcs 1.1.x on Solaris 2.5.x.
          Thanks to Bob McWhirter <bob@werken.com> for reporting this
          problem.

Thu Jan 07 04:45:36 1999  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.6.12 released.

Thu Jan 07 04:01:08 1999  Irfan Pyarali  <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Containers_T.cpp (max_size): No need to reallocate if the
          new size is the same.  Thanks to Mike Goldman <whig@by.net> for
          pointing this out.

        * ace/Strategies_T.cpp (check_hint_i and cleanup_hint_i):
          purge_i() should be called after the entry is closed.

        * Select_Reactor_Base.cpp (unbind): The next <max_handlep1_>
          should be calculated not only based on the <wait_set> but also
          the <suspend_set>.

          Thanks to Mark L. Boriack <mboriack@std.saic.com> for providing
          a description of this bug.

Wed Jan 06 21:42:11 1999  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/OS.cpp (thr_create): moved #endif /* ACE_LACKS_SETDETACH */
          outside of }, to allow compilation on DU 4.0/cxx with DCE threads.

        * ace/config-osf1-4.0.h: with DCE threads only, added
          ACE_LACKS_THREAD_PROCESS_SCOPING.

Wed Jan 06 16:36:21 1999  David L. Levine  <schmidt@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ACE version 4.6.11 released.

Wed Jan 06 15:15:37 1999  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Service_Config.cpp (process_directive,close): Moved the
          deletion of <svc_conf_file_queue_> into close method.
          Otherwise, there's no way to reconfigure the service
          configuration once it get started.  Thanks to Mike Goldman
          <whig@by.net> for reporting the problem.

Wed Jan  6 14:27:24 EST 1999  James CE Johnson  <jcej@lads.com

        * docs/tutorials/021/*:
        Completed the ACE_Malloc<> tutorial.  It could be a lot better
        than it is but I'm still new to ACE_Malloc...

        * docs/tutorials/021/online-tutorials.html:
        Added the link for #21

Tue Jan 05 22:55:07 1999  Irfan Pyarali  <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Strategies_T.cpp (cleanup_hint_i and check_hint_i): Since we
          are holding the connection cache lock in these methods, the
          Svc_Handler should not call purge().  If it does, a deadlock
          will occur (unless we have recursive locks) since we are already
          holding the connection cache lock.  Therefore, we zero out the
          recycler before calling svc_handler->close() and purge out the
          svc_handler entry ourself (through purge_i()).

          Thanks to Mark L. Boriack <mboriack@std.saic.com> for providing
          a precise example illustrating this bug.

Tue Jan  5 18:48:47  James CE Johnson  <jcej@lads.com>

        * docs/tutorials/templates.html: Fixed a number of problems here.
          Thanks to Amos Shapira <Amos_Shapira@icomverse.com> for pointing
          them out.

        * docs/tutorials/colorize: I pulled out the colorization code from
          combine into this standalone script.  One of these days I'll fix
          combine so that the code isn't duplicated...

Tue Jan  5 16:14:00 1999  Carlos O'Ryan  <coryan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/config-irix6.x-common.h:
          Added ACE_TIMER_SKEW definition.

        * ace/FILE.cpp:
          Fixed the seek() prototype, is was declared as taking a "off_t"
          argument, but is was defined with a "long" argument,
          unfortunately in most platforms this was not a problem.

Tue Jan 05 13:15:35 1999  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Service_Config.i (open): Be sure to pass down the
          <ignore_static_svcs> argument down to the real open method.

Tue Jan 05 08:08:06 1999  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * tests/MM_Shared_Memory_Test.cpp (spawn): fixed syntax error
          by moving ) to end of ACE_ERROR invocation.

        * ace/config-osf1-4.0.h: added 10 ms ACE_TIMER_SKEW, so that
          MT_Reactor_Timer_Test passes.

        * ace/config-lynxos.h: added 10 ms ACE_TIMER_SKEW, so that
          MT_Reactor_Timer_Test comes closer to passing.  It now
          chokes on the wait () near the end.

        * ace/OS.i (thr_getspecific): moved return 0 statement inside
          the Draft 7/STD #else block, to avoid warning about unreachable
          statement with Draft 4/6.

        * ace/config-osf1-4.0.h: with Draft 4 pthreads, added
          ACE_LACKS_READDIR_R.

        * tests/MT_Reactor_Timer_Test.cpp (main): added printout if
          wait () fails.

Tue Jan  5 00:59:04 1999  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@ace.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Synch: Changed the remove() method of ACE_Thread_Mutex,
          ACE_Mutex, ACE_Semaphore, ACE_RW_Mutex, ACE_Event,
          ACE_Thread_Condition_Mutex, ACE_File_Lock, and
          ACE_Recursive_Thread_Mutex so that they check a flag to see if
          remove() has already been called.  If it has, then the remove()
          call does nothing.  This avoids nasty problems on platforms like
          Win95 that fail mysteriously if locks are destroyed multiple
          times.  Note that our solution isn't perfect since it won't
          protect against race conditions if multiple threads call
          remove() simultaneously.  However, if this happens it's a sign
          that the application was designed incorrectly...  Thanks to Paul
          Felix <pef@fluent.com> and Irfan for tracking this down....

        * ace/FILE: Added new methods, seek() and tell(), that are more
          intuitively named than the existing position() methods.  The
          position() methods have been retained for backwards
          compatiblity, but are now marked as deprecated.

        * ace/OS.h: Added a macro for ACE_DEFAULT_HTTP_PORT, which
          is 80 of course...

        * ace/INET_Addr.cpp: Make sure that addr_to_string() correctly
          checks the length of its buffer before doing a sprintf().  In
          addition, added an option to print the results in either ip-addr
          format or ip-name format.

        * ace/Mem_Map.cpp (map): where ace/Mem_Map.cpp mmap() will succeed
          if the length of the file mapping is 0, which will be the case
          if we've just created the file.  This was the wrong place to
          make this check.

        * tests/MM_Shared_Memory_Test.cpp: Cleaned up a few things
          in this test so that it'll be easier to maintain.

Mon Jan 04 08:45:45 1999  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/config-sunos5.7.h: only use the g++ hacks if the
          g++ version is prior to 2.8.  Assume that later versions
          were built on SunOS 5.7 host, and/or don't have header
          files that are incompatible with the system headers.

        * bin/create_ace_build: changed symlink creation failure from
          error (with termination) to warning create_ace_build.

Mon Jan  4 03:15:57 1999  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@ace.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Mem_Map: If we're remapping an already-mapped file
          (i.e., the base_addr_ != 0) && the addr parameter IS 0 (i.e.,
          the user isn't trying to respecify where to map this file), then
          we'll try to map over top of the existing region, which implies
          "MAP_FIXED".

Sun Jan 03 23:21:46 1999  Nanbor Wang  <nanbor@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Service_Config.cpp (initialize): Both initialize methods now
          remove the service object from the repository if its init()
          method failed.

Sun Jan  3 14:39:49 1999  Douglas C. Schmidt  <schmidt@ace.cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/ACE: Added a simple dirname() wrapper method.

        * ace/SString: The set(const char *, size_t, int = 1) and
          set(const char *, size_t) methods were inherently ambiguous.
          I've fixed this by changing removing the default parameters.
          Thanks to Irfan for suggesting this fix.

        * ace/Mem_Map.cpp: mmap() will fail if the length of the file
          mapping is 0, which will be the case if we've just created the
          file.  Therefore, don't even bother trying to mmap() in this
          case and return a successful result.

        * ace/FILE: Moved the get_remote_addr() and get_local_addr()
          methods from the FILE_IO class to the FILE class since that's
          more properly where they belong.  Also added a new remove()
          method that unlinks the file.

        * tests/Priority_Reactor_Test.cpp,
          tests/Conn_Test.cpp,
          tests/Notify_Performance_Test.cpp,
          Priority_Reactor_Test.cpp,
          Reactor_Performance_Test.cpp: Since the default is to skip argv0
          there's no sense explicitly saying this in the constructor of
          ACE_Get_Opt.

        * ace/FILE_Connector.h: Updated the comments to reflect recent
          changes.

        * ace/FILE.h: Added a new get_info() method that takes a reference
          to an ACE_FILE_Info rather than a pointer.  This is a cleaner
          API, IMHO.

        * ace/FILE_Connector.cpp (connect): When the <remote_sap> argument
          is ACE_Addr::sap_any, then connect will select a temporary
          filename using the new feature of ACE_FILE_Addr described below.

        * ace/FILE_Addr.cpp (set): When the address is ACE_Addr::sap_any,
          then we'll select a new temporary filename using the new
          ACE_DEFAULT_TEMP_FILE macro and ACE_OS::mktemp().

        * ace/OS.h: Added a new ACE_DEFAULT_TEMP_FILE macro that defaults
          to "/tmp/ace-fileXXXX" and is used by the ACE_FILE_Connector
          to create a temporary file when it's given an ACE_Addr::sap_any.

        * ace/FILE_Addr.h: The <set> accessor should return an int to be
          consistent.

        * ace/OS.h: Added a new ACE_sap_any_cast macro, which makes it
          much easier to cast the ACE_Addr::sap_any to the right subclass.

        * tests/Reactor_Performance_Test.cpp,
          tests/Reactor_Exceptions_Test.cpp,
          tests/Process_Strategy_Test.cpp,
          tests/Priority_Reactor_Test.cpp,
          tests/IOStream_Test.cpp,
          tests/Conn_Test.cpp: Replaced all the C-style casts for
          ACE_Addr::sap_any with the new ACE_sap_any_cast macro.

Sun Jan 03 21:48:37 1999  Irfan Pyarali  <irfan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Asynch_Acceptor.cpp: Since this is a template file, I
          removed it from the ace library build on NT.

        * ace/Asynch_Acceptor.cpp (open): Changed C-style cast to use the
          new ACE_sap_any_cast macro from Dr. Schmidt.

Sun Jan 03 09:12:23 1999  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/config-sunos5.5.h: with GreenHills, added
          ACE_LACKS_LINEBUFFERED_STREAMBUF and ACE_LACKS_SIGNED_CHAR.

        * ace/Basic_Types.* (ACE_U_LongLong): unioned the data members
          with a double, to ensure alignment on 8-byte boundaries.  It
          could matter when an ACE_U_LongLong is used as a true 8-byte
          quantity, such as in a call to Solaris ::gethrtime ().

        * tests/Time_Value_Test.cpp: replaced remaining #ifdef
          ACE_HAS_STHREADS with #ifdef sun.

Sat Jan  2 23:48:44 1999  James CE Johnson  <jcej@chiroptera.tragus.org>

        * docs/ACE-tutorials.html
        * docs/tutorials/guide-tutorials.html
        * docs/tutorials/new-tutorials.html
        * docs/tutorials/online-tutorials.html
        Converted some of the absolute URLs to relative.  I only have the
        docs/tutorials tree here at home so I couldn't do any more than
        these.

        * docs/tutorials/021/*
        New tutorial on ACE_Malloc<>.  I haven't begun the documentation
        yet but wanted to get the code commited so it doesn't get lost.

Sat Jan 02 08:34:27 1999  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * examples/ASX/Event_Server/Event_Server/event_server.cpp
          (handle_input),
          examples/Reactor/Misc/test_early_timeouts.cpp (main):
          added ACE_UNUSED_ARG (n), to avoid compile warning with ACE_NDEBUG.

        * performance-tests/Misc/test_naming.cpp (find): moved function
          call w/side effect out of ACE_ASSERT.  Thanks to DU 4.0 cxx
          for noticiing it, with ACE_NDEBUG.

Fri Jan 01 18:57:22 1999  David L. Levine  <levine@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Containers_T.i (ACE_Array,ACE_Array::operator=):
          added missing ACE_INLINE's.

        * ace/OS.{h,cpp} (ACE_TSS_Info::operator{==,!=}): added
          constness.  It's necessary with the ACE_Array changes,
          with ACE_HAS_TSS_EMULATION.

Fri Jan  1 12:22:14 1999  Carlos O'Ryan  <coryan@cs.wustl.edu>

        * ace/Containers_T.h:
        * ace/Containers_T.i:
        * ace/Containers_T.cpp:
        * bin/Array_Helper:
        * bin/Array.pl:
          Moved most of the implementation of ACE_Array into
          ACE_Array_Base this class does not require == or != operators
          defined for the template parameter.
          I also added methods to access and manipulate the capacity of
          the array (max_size) as opposed to always changing its size (the
          portion actually used).

        * ace/Object_Manager.cpp:
        * ace/Template_Instantiations.cpp:
        * ace/OS.cpp:
        * apps/JAWS/clients/Caching/URL_Properties.cpp:
          Fixed ACE_Array instantiations.
