Thu Nov  9 19:09:48 PST 2000                    Michael Jennings (mej)

Added name- and version-setting functions since we can't just use
PACKAGE and VERSION any more.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Nov  9 19:19:31 PST 2000                    Michael Jennings (mej)

It usually helps if you finish writing the code BEFORE you commit it.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Nov 16 16:38:55 PST 2000                    Michael Jennings (mej)

Insure++ found a small logic error here that could result in a tiny
leak under certain circumstances.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Jan  2 18:22:25 PST 2001                    Michael Jennings (mej)

Added file.c for any file routines I write.  The first one is a secure
temp file generator.  If portability issues arise from non-POSIX
systems, they will be addressed here.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon May  7 19:08:45 PDT 2001                    Michael Jennings (mej)

I have created a testbed for libast.  You can now run "make test" to
run a series of tests which will test some of the functionality of the
library.  I didn't finish all the tests I'll eventually have; I just
wanted to get the stuff that's immediately important.

I also added a new split() function, which functions somewhat like its
Perl counterpart, although there are differences.  This function will
be used in the remaining Eterm work I must do before release.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon May  7 22:16:11 PDT 2001                    Michael Jennings (mej)

Moved chomp() to libast.  It's awfully handy.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue May  8 19:51:51 PDT 2001                    Michael Jennings (mej)

Added two more convenience functions:  join(), also borrowed from
Perl, and free_array() for freeing lists.  I also threw in a USE_VAR()
macro for getting rid of bogus unused variable warnings.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed May  9 17:20:46 PDT 2001                    Michael Jennings (mej)

Better handling of NULL values all around.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu May 17 10:27:02 PDT 2001                    Michael Jennings (mej)

Fixed "make distcheck."

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Jun 11 16:57:40 PDT 2001                    Michael Jennings (mej)

I moved the config file code from Eterm to libast.  I also relocated
some of the generic macros (MIN(), MAX(), BOUND(), etc.).  Version up
to 0.3 now.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Jun 15 16:50:54 PDT 2001                    Michael Jennings (mej)

Cleaned up spec file in preparation for release.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Jun 15 17:31:34 2001                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Converted the ChangeLog to Avalon's log format.  Yay! :-)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Jun 15 23:40:45 2001                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Moved the parsing of each config file line into a separate function.
You'll see why in a moment.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Jun 18 13:49:24 2001                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Oops.  ChangeLog entries were ending up in the bit-bucket.  Fixed and
re-synced. :)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Jun 29 10:02:34 2001                        Michael Jennings (mej)

I think we can call this finished.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Jul 23 18:01:37 2001                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Well that was dumb.  Comments are supposed to be *ignored*. :P
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Jul 23 23:25:13 2001                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Damnit.  It was screwing up on blank lines too. >:I
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Sat Sep 22 09:24:41 2001                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Fixed a compilation issue on some systems where libX11 would not be
linked in with the test program.  This is libast 0.4.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Jan 21 18:02:20 2002                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Don't try this at home.  This package has been discombobulated by
trained professionals.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Feb 12 00:03:12 2002                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Please ignore the warnings during compile.  I didn't want to check
this in just yet, but I kinda broke Eterm and committed it. :(
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Feb 12 00:23:36 2002                        Michael Jennings (mej)

...and then I came to my senses....  :-P
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Feb 12 10:40:37 2002                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Still not fleshed out, but at least the warnings are gone. :-)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Sun Feb 17 12:10:59 2002                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Hopefully now this will make more sense.  The string class is now
fleshed out...along with a complete set of unit tests. :)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Feb 18 21:54:25 2002                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Mmmmm...reusability. :-)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Sun Mar  3 01:44:51 2002                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Added precision to the profiling stuff, and threw in the beginnings of
support for interface classes.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Apr  4 20:45:30 2002                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Lots of updates.  This should compile, but if it doesn't, don't blame
me.  (Well, blame me, just don't whine at me.) :-)

Also a bit of a design doc here...hopefully it will clarify some
things.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Apr  4 21:13:01 2002                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Re-indenting code.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Apr  4 22:24:36 2002                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Oops...
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Apr 11 18:03:46 2002                        Michael Jennings (mej)

The list interface is complete (for now) as is its first
implementation:  the linked_list class.  Unit tests are also in.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Apr 11 18:15:11 2002                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Fix "make distcheck"
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Apr 11 23:47:26 2002                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Not needed...
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Apr 15 23:50:40 2002                        Michael Jennings (mej)

A doubly-linked list implementation of the list interface.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Apr 16 16:23:42 2002                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Another obvious list implementation...an array.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Apr 19 18:35:21 2002                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Working tokenizer.  The question is, how much do I need to add in the
way of flexibility....  Shell-style parsing?  Null-field support?
*ponders*
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Apr 26 15:13:27 2002                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Working on some new stuff here, and just wanted to get this stuff in
in case my laptop croaks or something.  The new code doesn't work,
but at least it doesn't break the compile. :)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Apr 26 15:24:02 2002                        Michael Jennings (mej)

I spoke too soon....
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Apr 29 15:25:01 2002                        Michael Jennings (mej)

The options parser seems to be working now.  It's fairly extensible
and fixes a lot of the problems with the old one.  It was rewritten
more or less from scratch.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Apr 30 22:17:27 2002                        Michael Jennings (mej)

I really should be more careful when creating test cases.  This
should fix the parsing of boolean options with values.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed May  1 23:21:23 2002                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Fleshed out the URL class.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue May  7 16:37:40 2002                        Michael Jennings (mej)

A few small bugfixes and some touchups.  Also work on the socket
object.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue May 21 00:15:37 2002                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Fixed a number of memory leaks in both the testing code and the object
classes themselves.

Also rearranged some header stuff and created a few new helper macros
for object declarations.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed May 22 00:16:31 2002                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Brought the performance tests up to date and cleaned up some memory
leaks in them.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed May 22 08:59:38 2002                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Stupid typo.  Doing too much perl, I guess.  cpp uses "#elif," not
"#elsif."
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Sun May 26 22:37:43 2002                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Updated performance testing to be scaled.  The default is a quicker
performance test than before, but now we can also choose to run
anywhere from scratching the surface to a very thorough pounding.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Sun Jun  9 14:16:38 2002                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Return on failed assert.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Sat Jul 13 23:26:12 2002                        Michael Jennings (mej)

New function, version_compare(), which accurately compares package
version numbers.  Take a look at the various test cases to see what
kinds of comparisons it can accurately make, and if you see any that
aren't there, let me know.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Jul 26 00:12:25 2002                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Mmmm, sockets that connect. :)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Jul 26 16:52:40 2002                        Michael Jennings (mej)

More socket work.  Also, permit muting of error/warning messages by
supplying a NULL value for the program name.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Jul 30 17:34:38 2002                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Send/receive on the socket works now.  Also cleaned up the show method
for strings to eliminate the 4K length limit.

The current socket test will actually download the HTML for my home
page.  Uncomment the SPIF_SHOW() call in test_socket() to see it work.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Jul 31 17:49:17 2002                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Added the _reverse() and _to_array() routines to all 3 list classes
(finally).  Also added unit tests for those.

The tests for the socket code no longer download my home page.  Now,
I create a listening socket and a sending socket for a TCP/IP and a
UNIX socket.  Then I send/receive data across the socket and compare
what I received with what I sent.  Self-contained is better. :-)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Sun Aug  4 20:11:38 2002                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Did a complete overhaul of the configure.in script.  Moved everything
to macros in libast.m4, which is now installed by the package.  That
will facilitate easier development of libast-based programs.

Also added the beginnings of a regexp class with support for PCRE,
POSIX-, and BSD-style regular expressions.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Sun Aug  4 22:38:47 2002                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Apparently shared library building breaks if AC_PROG_CC isn't directly
in configure.in.... :(
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Sun Aug  4 22:47:33 2002                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Fix the cache variable name.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Sat Aug 10 12:06:50 2002                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Undefined symbol fix.  Got overzealous with my s///.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Aug 13 21:38:04 2002                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Working implementation of a regular expression object which supports
(and abstracts) PCRE, POSIX, or BSD regular expression functionality.
Also fixed some bugs with the list code and the cpp stuff.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Aug 13 22:47:45 2002                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Oops, disable those old functions for now.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Aug 19 21:02:56 2002                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Added a macro to permit client apps a simple way to detect libast.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Sep 25 00:01:29 2002                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Patch from Kirby Kuehl <kkuehl@cisco.com> for compilation on FreeBSD.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Sep 30 11:53:59 2002                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Final commit for release of libast 0.5.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Oct 25 15:07:21 2002                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Patch from Darren Stuart Embry <dse@webonastick.com> to fix building
on Debian systems with ash installed.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Nov  5 14:57:46 2002                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Solaris fixes (I hope) thanks to Kevin Doherty <kdoherty@uu.net>.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Dec 30 17:49:43 2002                        Michael Jennings (mej)

I added a new interface, this one called a "vector."  The difference
between a vector and a list is that a vector, as the name implies, is
guaranteed to be "pointing in one direction," i.e. ordered.  This
interface should be used in preference to the "list" interface for
ordered lists, specifically where search speed is vastly more
important than insertion/deletion speed.

The array implementation is now doing double-duty, as it implements
both the list and the vector interfaces.

Most of an AVL tree implementation is included in this commit as well.
Brian Schenkenfelder <brians@nplus1.net> graciously offered me an AVL
tree implementation that he'd written awhile back, which I modified to
use the libast semantics.  Unfortunately, he never implemented the
removal code, so I'm hoping that some kind soul who has had a data
structures class more recently than I have will jump in and finish it
for me.  (*hint hint*)  :-)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Dec 30 18:10:42 2002                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Pass "make distcheck" please and thank you. :)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Dec 30 18:26:55 2002                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Update spec file.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Feb 20 00:44:26 2003                        Michael Jennings (mej)

The beginnings of doxygen documentation.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Sun Feb 23 22:00:55 2003                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Still working on the documentation.  If you run "doxygen" from the
top-level directory, you can see what's there so far.

At some point, I'll be needing a logo.  So if you're artistically
inclined, feel free to take a stab at one. :)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Mar  7 23:52:30 2003                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Definitely making progress on the documentation, but there's still a
long way to go.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Sat Mar  8 00:01:20 2003                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Let's try not to break stuff, shall we?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Mar 17 16:27:53 2003                        Michael Jennings (mej)

More work on docs.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Apr  1 23:07:15 2003                        Michael Jennings (mej)

More documentation work.  libast.h is almost finished.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Apr  4 22:59:45 2003                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Finally finished documenting libast.h.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Apr  8 17:14:32 2003                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Finished documenting libast_internal.h.  Also some 64-bit cleanliness
fixes.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Apr 10 17:54:19 2003                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Docs for some of the .c files.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Apr 11 17:10:15 2003                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Completed documentation of the memory management system.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Jun 16 20:43:43 2003                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Additional documentation.

Added support for versions containing "rc."
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Jun 27 17:53:29 2003                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Starting in on the docs for the object system.  Yum.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Jul  1 15:50:57 2003                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Finished the type docs.  Still working on the object docs.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Jul  3 15:27:36 2003                        Michael Jennings (mej)

More object docs.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Jul  3 23:37:45 2003                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Forgot to fix these before committing. :(
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Jul  9 19:49:39 2003                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Some minor rearranging.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Oct 30 16:03:29 2003                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Make SPIF_STR_STR() convenience macro *always* return a string, even
if the str object is NULL.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Oct 30 18:12:35 2003                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Added support for object "properties."  A property is a member
variable with corresponding get/set methods.

I'll probably flesh this out more as I use it more.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Oct 31 15:21:53 2003                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Fixes to string class find/splice routines.

Added SPIF_DEFINE_PROPERTY_FUNC_NONOBJ() macro for defining get/set
methods of a property which is not an object.  It should be used in
place of SPIF_DEFINE_PROPERTY_FUNC() for spif_*_t types that are not
objects, such as spif_int32_t and spif_sockport_t.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Sat Nov  1 13:56:22 2003                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Documentation updates for doxygen 1.3.x.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Nov  5 15:05:35 2003                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Oops.  Forgot to fix a couple.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Nov  5 15:13:24 2003                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Let's try that again, shall we?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Nov 10 14:28:09 2003                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Added assertions/requirements for string member functions.

Changed pointer printouts to %010p instead of %8p, since the latter
didn't account for the possibility of a leading "0x".

Fixed typos in hex_dump().
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Nov 18 23:15:59 2003                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Added D_*_IF macros for doing debugging conditionals more cleanly.

Removed the bogus "next" member function from the array and vector
interface classes.

Fleshed out the iterator interface and implemented it for arrays.

Fixed stupid mistake that made property functions overly type-strict.

Cleaned up the "show" member functions.

Added a routine for testing a regexp vs. a C string.

Property-ized the URL class objects.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Nov 19 17:39:01 2003                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Added linked_list and dlinked_list implementations of the vector
interface.

Added iterator functionality for linked_list and dlinked_list.

Added unit tests for the above.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Nov 21 16:39:23 2003                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Tasty new goodies thanks to Graphviz.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Nov 21 18:40:52 2003                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Added more docs to obj.c.  I need to go back and be more verbose on
some things, though.

These can be viewed online at http://www.eterm.org/libast/ for those
who'd like to get a sneak peak at them.  Please report any obvious
errors, typos, etc.  Those with developer access, feel free to
contribute or correct any errors or inconsistencies you find.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Sun Nov 23 15:57:55 2003                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Cleanups required by doxygen 1.3.x.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Nov 26 17:18:20 2003                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Added sysdefs.h so that client programs who don't employ some/all of
the AST_* m4 macros can still get all the #define's they need for the

Adding hash functions in preparation for a hash table implementation.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Jan 22 20:42:40 2004                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Added a few new hashes.

Fixed a typo in the old hashes.

LibAST-ized the hash tests and made new performance tests.

Anybody care to comment on the validity of my performance tests?  All
6 algorithms end up with pretty much the same results.  Do I need to
use a dictionary instead of random "words?"  That's kinda what I'm
thinking....
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Jan 22 22:35:43 2004                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Fixed the Imlib2 linking problem pointed out by Mike Frysinger
<vapier@gentoo.org>.

Applied kwo's libast-config.patch.  Note that this patch breaks the
libast compile.  I'll have to fix it tomorrow.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Jan 23 01:42:05 2004                        Michael Jennings (mej)

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Jan 30 17:55:47 2004                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Working on adding assertions/requires for NULL object checks.

Also making sure list elements can be NULL so insert_at() can resize
a list.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Feb  2 17:22:42 2004                        Michael Jennings (mej)

More cleanups.  And yes, I know "make test" doesn't work.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Feb  3 18:18:32 2004                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Cleanups are done.  Almost done with the NULL handling for lists too.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Feb  4 10:53:04 2004                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Should be all fixed now.

Upon return from spifopt_parse()'s postparsing run, argv[] will now
contain only the non-option arguments left on the command line.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Oct 26 12:18:14 2004                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Fix spec.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Oct 26 13:58:45 2004                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Pre-parsing is kinda unique, and most applications probably won't need
it.  So now pre-parsing of options must be specifically requested.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Dec 14 17:12:13 2004                        Michael Jennings (mej)

0.6.1 release
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Dec 14 17:51:20 2004                        Michael Jennings (mej)

More work from my vacation.  Turned the string class into both an
interface and an implementation, and created a new multipurpose buffer
class (untested) for arbitrary text/binary data.  (Think "strings with
embedded newlines" if that helps.)

Now, if someone were so inclined, (s)he could create a LibAST
implementation of the "str" interface based on glib strings, or
QStrings, or whatever with almost no changes to the code using the
libast string API (once the function calls like spif_str_new() are
replaced with macro calls like SPIF_STR_NEW()).

A UTF-8-based string implementation is forthcoming.

Added mbuff and ustr to testing routines.

Fleshed out ustr class; doesn't do UTF-8 yet though.

Fixed array removal code.  I have no idea how that was working before.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Apr 25 10:19:10 2006                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Added sprintf() routines for string classes.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Jul 13 14:02:08 2006                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Added thread, mutex, and condition interfaces along with their
corresponding pthreads-based implementations.  Not quite done yet, and
not tested.

Added dynamically-loadable module object class along with
corresponding unit tests.  Appears to work fine.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Sun Oct 26 15:56:20 2008                        Michael Jennings (mej)

Remove unnecessary typecasting macros.  They were supposed to save
typing and improve readability, but I've concluded that they tend to
do neither.  More cleanups to come; there appear to be some new
warnings I need to deal with.
