**** TCLX 8.4.0 RELEASE ****

* generic/tclXstring.c (TclX_CrangeObjCmd): 64-bit cast fix

* generic/tclXmath.c (TclX_MathInit): restrict to only add min/max
	expr funcs in <= 8.4

* generic/tclXkeylist.c: 64-bit cast warning squash

* library/tclx.tcl: protect scope of variables in init

2005-11-20  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>

* Makefile.in: correct dist target

* README:       updated readme and install notes to TclX 8.4 std.
	* unix/INSTALL: Windows nmake makefile still needs fixing, but
	* unix/INSTALL.generic (removed):    TEA-based system works across
	* win/INSTALL.txt, win/makefile.vc:  the board.
	* win/common.bc, win/makefile.bc, win/makefile.vc.sub (removed):

2005-11-17  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>

* library/tclx.tcl: unused sample pure Tcl readdir

* tests/cmdtrace.test (cmdtrace-3.2): remove errorInfo, as that
	varies between Tcl versions, but main error is correct.

* tests/keylist.test:
	* generic/tclXkeylist.c (DeleteKeyedListEntry): keep hash entries
	in sync even if the deleted item was not in the hash.

* generic/tclXlist.c (TclX_LemptyObjCmd): simplify to force list
	conversion, but ignore errors on bad lists.

* tests/fmath.test (fmath-1.21): adjust for bignum math in 8.5

2005-10-07  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>

* unix/tclXunixPort.h: Correct INADDR_NONE define. [Bug 1242825]

* configure, configure.in, tclconfig/tcl.m4: updated to 3.3,
	support for Solaris 5.10 and amd64 64-bit builds.

2005-07-27  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>

* generic/tclXselect.c: use unsigned int on Windows for fd type,
	as that is what Windows expects.  Not strictly correct, but select
	usage on Windows is iffy anyways.

2005-07-12  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>

* generic/tclExtdInt.h (TclXOSGetSelectFnum): use int for fd
	* unix/tclXunixOS.c (TclXOSGetSelectFnum):    (reverses change from
	* win/tclXwinOS.c (TclXOSGetSelectFnum):      2005-04-26) as TclX
	* generic/tclXselect.c: 	              uses -1 in handles
	to indicate unused fd for select.

2005-07-07  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>

* unix/tclXunixOS.c (TclXOSWalkDir): undef readdir as Tcl 8.4 did
	ifdef'ery that was unnecessary and screwed up threaded builds.

2005-04-26  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>

* generic/tclXbsearch.c (ReadAndCompare): Fix Tcl_Tell return casts
	* generic/tclXdup.c (DupFileChannel):     as it take Tcl_WideInt,
	* generic/tclXfilescan.c (ScanFile):      but off_t is long on Win.
	* generic/tclXselect.c (ParseSelectFileList):

* generic/tclExtdInt.h (TclXOSGetSelectFnum): take unsigned int
	* unix/tclXunixOS.c (TclXOSGetSelectFnum):    for fd
	* win/tclXwinOS.c (TclXOSGetSelectFnum):
	(TclXOSftruncate): fix cast from Tcl_Tell

2005-03-28  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>

* configure, configure.in:
	* Makefile.in (PKG_OBJECTS): add @LIBOBJS@ to needed objects.

2005-03-25  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>

* configure, configure.in: AC_PROG_LN_S no longer needed
	* tests/help.test: correct help tests to use correct help dir
	* Makefile.in: doc target cleanup (das)
	Add helpclean target and make help not rebuild always.
	Add TCLX_HELP_DIR to TCLSH_ENV.

* license.terms (new): minimal license terms file

* library/buildhelp.tcl (buildhelp): redir 2>/dev/null for exec
	col check. (das)

* unix/tclXunixPort.h: undef panic for __APPLE__ (das)

2005-03-24  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>

* Makefile.in, tclconfig/tcl.m4: Get AIX wide int type right.
	* configure, configure.in:       Use 'tclx' PACKAGE_NAME, but load
	'Tclx'.

2005-03-23  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>

* Makefile.in, tclconfig/tcl.m4: Update to TEA 3.2, refactoring
	* configure, configure.in:       some #defines.  Still needs to
	have header usage on AIX checked, where 'kill' in tclXsignal is
	crashing the test suite.
	* pkgIndex.tcl.in, tclconfig/ChangeLog (removed):
	* generic/tclXinit.c: use TEA3 define names (PACKAGE_*)
	* generic/tclXselect.c: remove NO_SYS_SELECT_H, rely on
	HAVE_SYS_SELECT_H from tcl's tclUnixPort.h
	* win/tclXwinPort.h: remove NO_SYS_SELECT_H define
	* unix/tclXunixPort.h: remove NO_FLOOR_PROTO_ check

* generic/tclXkeylist.c (DeleteKeyedListEntry): fix hash
	consistency checks when missing cached entry.

* generic/tclXlib.c: remove trailing , in enum typdef

2005-03-18  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>

* Makefile.in (AR): use @AR@

2005-03-16  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>

* generic/tclXmath.c: add ability to handle wide values in min/max
	math functions and commands.
	Merged TclX_MinFunc and TclX_MaxFunc into TclX_MinMaxFunc.

2005-02-07  Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>

* generic/tclXkeylist.c (FindKeyedListEntry): Moved a C99 specific
	  variable declaration to the top of its block, making it C89
	  compatible.

2005-02-03  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>

* tests/keylist.test, generic/tclXkeylist.c: improve efficiency of
	keyed lists by layering a hash table over the existing linear
	list.  This has significant performance improvements for larger
	lists.  To avoid use of the hash table, add
	-DNO_KEYLIST_HASH_TABLE to your CFLAGS.

* tests/profile.test: update to pass 8.4 bcc changes

* generic/tclXsignal.c (FormatSignalListEntry): dup string passed
	to TclX_KeyedListSet to ensure we don't break const-ness.

* configure, tclconfig/tcl.m4: increase Linux default opt level to
	-O2.

2005-01-21  Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>

* unix/tclXunixOS.c: Converted both implementations of TclXOSsleep
	* win/tclXwinOS.c:   from direct access to native time functions
	                     to the use of Tcl's more abstract interface
	                     (Tcl_Sleep). For the reason behind _this_
	                     change see TIP #233. Our change here now
	                     causes TclX to be automatically in sync
	                     with any virtualization set up in the core.

2005-01-18  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>

* generic/tclXfcntl.c: make attrNames static

2004-12-21  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>

* tests/cmdtrace.test: updated for minor whitespace changes in Tcl
	8.4 results.  Will fail on 8.3, but that's not a concern.

2004-12-02  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>

* Makefile.in: cygpath a few required buildhelp vars
	* configure, configure.in: refactor --with-help check to add 'col'
	prog check and defer them until TclX help is requested.
	* library/buildhelp.tcl (buildhelp): convert system call to exec
	to allow it to work on Windows

2004-12-01  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>

* unix/tools/tclmanpages: note resource.n last appears and lset.n
	first appears in 8.4 docs.

2004-11-23  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>

* generic/tclXfilescan.c (TclX_ScanfileObjCmd): watch for scanfile
	closing the open channel. [Bug 1045190] (hellstroem)

* configure.in, configure: add check for NO_UNION_WAIT for
	Solaris, HP and related systems

2004-11-22  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>

* library/tclx.tcl: Reintroduce the addition of the 'help' command
	* library/help.tcl: as tclx::help* (they can be namespace imported).
	* configure:        Adjust the configure to allow --with-help, which
	* configure.in:     is required to build the TclX help files.  This
	* Makefile.in:      still needs work on how users would build and
	install the help depending on whether it was a CVS or general
	source distribution.

* library/edprocs.tcl (edprocs): harden tmpfile security access

* Makefile.in: remove TCL_DEFS dependency
	* configure.in: add TEA_TIME_HANDLER checks to no longer rely on
	TCL_DEFS (not good for 8.5).

* generic/tclXprofile.c (ProfStrCommandEval): CONST84-ify it

* unix/tclXunixSock.c (BindFileHandles): remove impotent channel
	code on channel2.

* doc/TclX.n: minor typo fixes

* generic/tclExtdInt.h: compat defines to support building against
	Tcl 8.5a2+. [Bug 1066799] (dgp)

2004-07-14  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>

* generic/tclXselect.c: undef panic on __APPLE__ (steffen)

2004-06-04  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>

* generic/tclExtdInt.h: Changed when 'tclInt.h' is included. Have
	  to be done before 'tcl*Port.h', to prevent a clash over
	  'TclpPanic'. Don Porter claims that this is ok in general as
	  well. A comment in the file seems to contradict this, but the
	  compilation I tried was ok. If this becomes truly a problem then
	  we may have to refactor the TclX headers to ensure that both Tcl
	  and TclX dependencies are resolved correctly.

2004-05-24  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>

* generic/tclXsocket.c (InfoGetHost): read host after arg count
	check. [Bug 930035] (teterin)

* doc/TclX.n: doc and comment fixes
	* unix/tclXunixOS.c:
	* win/tclXwinOS.c:

2004-02-12  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>

* win/tclXwinOS.c (TclXOSkill): close process handle

2003-04-04  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>

* configure.in:
	* tclconfig/tcl.m4: Updated to newest tcl.m4, regenerated
	  configure's.

2002-12-17  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>

* generic/tclXkeylist.c (ValidateKey): move isPath check outside
	of for loop.
	(DupKeyedListInternalRep): duplicate value object instead of
	directly incrementing refcount of existing object to stop memleak.
	(TclX_KeyedListGetKeys): simplify list result obj creation.
	(TclX_KeylkeysObjCmd): use obj-ified var set/get routines.

* Makefile.in: add valgrind and valgrindtest targets

* unix/INSTALL: remove references to Tk-required build

2002-11-12  Karl Lehenbauer <karl@procplace.com>

* Makefile.in: Put some variables back in that were previously
	    found in Config.mk.  "make buildhelp" now works again.
	* configure:
	* configure.in: Moved the help dir to the top directory of the
	    TclX source code.  It was using a subdir that no longer exists.
	* unix/tools/bldmanhelp.tcl: Add "package require Tclx" and source
	    the help tools.
	* unix/tools/instcopy.tcl: Add "package require Tclx" and source
	    the TclX build utilities.
	* unix/tools/runbuildhelp.tcl: "driver" to run buildhelp since
	    we don't have a Tcl command line that can take the command
	    on the command line.

2002-11-03  Karl Lehenbauer <karl@procplace.com>

* generic/tclXfilescan.c:    Applied patch to fileparse to use 
	  the public Tcl_RegExp interface instead of the private TclRegexp.  
	  Submitted by Reinhard Max (rmax) [Patch #631096]

2002-10-15  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>

* tclconfig/tcl.m4:
	* configure:
	* configure.in: move the CFLAGS definition into TEA_ENABLE_SHARED
	and make it pick up the env CFLAGS at configure time.

2002-10-15  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@pliers.activestate.com>

* configure.in: Changed to propagate an initial CFLAGS value to
	  the final definition. A TEA condition (SHARED_BUILD == 1)
	  squashed it, causing it the build system to loose the
	  +DAportable we specify for the AS PA-RISC2.2 build host. This is
	  a problem for _all_ TEA and TEA 2 based configure files.

2002-09-25  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>

* generic/tclExtdInt.h: added TclX_(Struct)Offet header
	* generic/tclXutil.c: added TclX_StructOffset to handle the
	changes in the size of Tcl_HashTable when embedded in a structure.

* generic/tclExtend.h: added support for 8.4 CONSTification (TIP 27)
	* generic/tclXbsearch.c:
	* generic/tclXcmdloop.c:
	* generic/tclXdebug.c:
	* generic/tclXdup.c:
	* generic/tclXfilecmds.c:

	* tests/string.test:
	* tests/tcllib.test:

2002-04-11  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>

* configure:
	* tcl.m4: Enabled COFF as well as CV style debug info with
	--enable-symbols to allow Dr. Watson users to see function info.
	More info on debugging levels can be obtained at:
	http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/dnvc60/html/gendepdebug.asp

2002-04-03  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>

* generic/tclXgeneral.c (TclX_EchoObjCmd): use encoding aware
	functions in 8.1+. [Bug #514053]

2002-04-02  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>

* doc/TclX.n: updated to note lack of shell stuff in 8.4.

* configure:
	* configure.in: added FULL_VERSION info

* generic/tclExtdInt.h: removed TclX_WriteStr, TclX_Eval and
	TclX_VarEval as they simply shadowed Tcl commands.  Removed
	TclX_ShellExit (no longer needed).  Updated files with Tcl equivs.
	* generic/tclExtend.h:
	* generic/tclXcmdloop.c:
	* generic/tclXdebug.c:

2001-10-24  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>

**** POTENTIAL INCOMPATABILITY ****
	* MASSIVE restructuring underway.  Reorganizing into a simple TclX
	only extension - no more tkx or shell builds.  You can retrieve
	the latest of the old style TclX from the tclx-8-3-0-branch.
	**** POTENTIAL INCOMPATABILITY ****

2001-09-11  Andreas Kupries  <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net>

* tcl/generic/tclXlib.c (MakeAbsFile): Replaced a call to the
	  internal 'TclpGetCwd' with an access to the public API
	  'Tcl_GetCwd'. [457266]. Reported by Vincent Darley.

2001-08-01  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>

* doc/TclX.n: 
	* tcl/generic/tclXoscmds.c: allowed sleep to accept double values,
	to match the Expect sleep command.  This prevents conflicts that
	depended on the order of package requires.  [Patch #444332]

2001-05-24  Andreas Kupries  <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net>

* unix/tools/tclmanpages: Added "re_syntax.n" to the list of
	  processed manpages [#405956].

2001-05-19  Andreas Kupries  <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net>

* All of the changes below are there to fix bug [418295].

* tcl/generic/tclXoscmds.c (TclX_OsCmdsInit): "system" and
	  "sleep" now use the new command creation procedure.

* tcl/generic/tclXprocess.c (TclX_ProcessInit): "fork" and
	  "wait" now use the new command creation procedure.

* tcl/generic/tclXutil.c (TclX_CreateObjCommand): Added
	  the implementation of this new procedure.

* tcl/generic/tclExtdInt.h: Added TclX_CreateObjCommand to
	  encapsulate the logic for the creation of commands FOO and
	  tclx_FOO.

2001-05-15  Andreas Kupries  <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net>

* tcl/generic/tclXlist.c (TclX_LassignObjCmd): Added
	  TCL_LEAVE_ERR_MSG to call of 'Tcl_SetVar2Ex'. This
	  fixes the bug [227478].

2001-05-07  Andreas Kupries  <andreas_kupries@users.sourceforge.net>

* tcl/generic/tclXgeneral.c (TclX_LoopObjCmd): Changed
	  'Tcl_AppendStringsToObj' into 'Tcl_AddErrorInfo'.

Fixes bug [226388]. Associated patch is [403050]. No need to
	  extend the testsuite, it already contained a test exercising the
	  bug.

2000-08-01 Brent Welch <welch@ajubasolutions.com>
	* tcl/unix/Makefile.in:
	* tk/unix/Makefile.in:
	Fixed bogus "test -f" on the new HELP_DIR directory, which should
	be "test -d".

2000-07-30 Brent Welch <welch@ajubasolutions.com>
	* win/Makefile.in - fixed because of new definition of
	TCL_SRC_DIR and TK_SRC_DIR

2000-07-12 Brent Welch <welch@ajubasolutions.com>
	* Changed the HELP_DIR to be configurable so I could have parallel
		builds not all trying to create the same help files.

2000-07-12 Brent Welch <welch@ajubasolutions.com>
	* tcl/win/configure.in, common.bc, common.vc
	    Fixed version number to 8.3
	* {tcl,tk}/unix/Makefile.in, tweaks to get references to LIB_RUNTIME_DIR
	    properly expanded on irix builds.  Also added BUILDHELP macro
	    that is conditional on nroff being present so we don't try to
	    build help files on systems with out nroff.

2000-07-10 Brent Welch <welch@ajubasolutions.com>
	* tcl/win/tclXAppInit.c, tk/generic/tkXshell.c, tk/win/tkXAppInit.c
	    - turn off USE_TCL_STUBS
	* win/Makefile.in, win/configure.in: Cleanup use of stubs library.

2000-04-03  Lee Bernhard  <lfb@scriptics.com>

* tcl/win/tclXwinOS.c (TclXOSkill): Added support for "kill"
	command on Windows platforms.

* win/aclocal.m4: Updated from latest tcl.m4.

* win/Makefile.in: Various changes to support Windows builds.
	Fixed to properly generate pkgIndex.tcl for tkx.  Added
	Makefile/configure rules.
