25

- get rid of getstubs

26

- provide actual pkgIndex files

27

31

32

2014-10-27 ssoberni <stefan.sobernig@wu-wien.ac.at>

33

34

36

files present in generic/* for the build machinery to work properly

37

- Done revising license statements in generic/*

38

39

2014-10-27 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

40

64

2014-10-24 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

65

66

- set the right version number to 2.0.0

67

- Make dtplite configurable in Makefile, e.g. make

71

- add Changelog for 2.0 release

72

- updated for mongo-c-driver 1.0.2 and MongoDB 2.6.5

73

- minor changes were necessary: MongogDB does not allow to delete a

74

capped collection, one has to use drop

75

- white-space changes

76

- move variable declaration to the front

77

78

2014-10-23 ssoberni <stefan.sobernig@wu-wien.ac.at>

79

80

- Fixing listings in shell-wrapper manpages

81

- Fix a typo reported by lintian

82

- Fix two more wordings lintian complained about

83

- Revise manpages; add copyright notes

84

85

2014-10-22 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

86

87

- reduce number of unused symbols

88

- fix a possible double refcount increment for argument converter (e.g.

89

for normalizing input values). This could lead to small memory leaks.

90

91

2014-10-22 ssoberni <stefan.sobernig@wu-wien.ac.at>

92

93

- Continue man corrections

94

- Work on corrections for Object.man & friends, based on Thorsten's

95

proof-reading

96

- Remove an nxdoc artifact

97

- Remove unneeded make variables

98

- Revive nsfConfig.sh: The paths expanded during a configure run were

99

broken, partly due to substituting obsolete variables

100

101

2014-10-21 ssoberni <stefan.sobernig@wu-wien.ac.at>

102

103

- Use revised interpreter directive throughout

104

105

2014-10-21 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

106

107

- fix final refcounting bug: it was possible that classes contained in

108

Tcl_Objs of type mixinreg were not freed, although their

109

reference-counter became 0; now all test cases free all tcl_objs and

110

referenced data structures allocated from nsf

111

112

2014-10-21 ssoberni <stefan.sobernig@wu-wien.ac.at>

113

114

- First solution to provide a multi-step resolution of a Tcl interpreter

115

in our shell wrappers. Uses some bash scripting to walk a list of

116

candidates: 1) interp in build directory, 2) interp in install

117

directory, 3) tcl interp in PATH. Where appropriate (cases 2 & 3),

118

restricts search to a specific tinterp version. By relying on a generic

119

shebang line (/bin/sh) we do not run into package-dependency

120

restrictions on Debian. So a win-win?

121

122

2014-10-21 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

123

124

- fix (probably quite old) memory leak when parameter passing fails to

125

reclaim temporary Tcl_Objs

126

- fix memory leak with virtual parameters (resolved via args) with

127

ref-counting

128

129

2014-10-21 ssoberni <stefan.sobernig@wu-wien.ac.at>

130

131

- Adding man pages for shell wrappers

132

- Adjust file extension for nroff files to reflect manpage section

133

134

2014-10-20 ssoberni <stefan.sobernig@wu-wien.ac.at>

135

136

- Fix the remaining shebangs

137

- Fix shebang lines

138

- Remove any nxdoc artifacts from repo, to ease Debian packaging (incl.

139

binary js is not accepted by lintian

140

141

2014-10-20 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

142

143

- fix execution with --enable-memcount=yes: second argument of

144

NsfMemCountAlloc() and NsfMemCountFree() may be empty

145

- don't put macro arguments between parens when these are used for

146

concatenation

147

- remove // comments

148

149

2014-10-19 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

150

151

build system:

152

- don't call genstubs from configure, since Debian does not seem to

153

have genstubs.tcl installed. Now, we pre-generate the stub files for

154

tcl8.5 and tcl8.6 and copy the "right" version depending on the

155

configured version.

156

- avoid old-style prototypes

157

158

2014-10-15 ssoberni <stefan.sobernig@wu-wien.ac.at>

159

160

- Done with basic princexml integration, improve Makefile integration

173

- Reflect plural reform in all doc items

174

175

2014-10-10 ssoberni <stefan.sobernig@wu-wien.ac.at>

176

177

- Doc item on nx::configure

178

- Doc item on nx::current

179

- Doc item for nx::next

180

181

2014-10-10 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

182

183

- minor cleanup of "//"-comments

184

185

2014-10-07 ssoberni <stefan.sobernig@wu-wien.ac.at>

186

187

- Add some documentation on 'info info'

188

- Make 'info info' behaving as expected again

189

190

2014-10-06 ssoberni <stefan.sobernig@wu-wien.ac.at>

191

192

- Minuscule refactoring, have DispatchUnknownMethod() reset the interp

193

unknown-state directly, rather than its clients.

194

195

2014-10-06 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

196

197

nsf.c:

198

- make types for bit operations unsigned (mostly flags)

199

200

2014-10-05 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

201

202

nx.tcl:

203

- simplify the info ensembles on nx::Object or nx::Class

204

significantly, by making use if ensemble-next.

205

- delete "info unknown", since this is not called.

206

- extend regression test

207

208

nsf.c:

209

- implement a new approach to error reporting in ensembles: instead of

210

trying to find the "right" place to report the best "error", compute

211

the longest valid ensemble prefix from all the stack frames.

212

213

2014-09-29 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

214

215

- make compilation clean again

216

- improve safety of macro arguments

217

218

2014-09-29 ssoberni <stefan.sobernig@wu-wien.ac.at>

219

221

ensembles

222

223

2014-09-28 ssoberni <stefan.sobernig@wu-wien.ac.at>

224

225

- Work-in-progress on sanitizing unknown handling in ensembles

226

227

2014-09-28 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

228

229

- remove useless distinction from the past

230

- revise sanity check for tcl _objs in 8.6 once one: length field might

231

be garbage

232

- add alternative test for sanity checking of tcl_objs: when bytes not

233

NULL, length must be 0 or higher

234

235

2014-09-27 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

236

237

nsf.c:

238

- remove redundant definition

239

- reduce variable scope

240

- make sure to follow nonnull assumptions

241

- improve cppcheck flags

242

243

nsf.h

244

- In Tcl 8.6.1 it might be that a Tcl_Obj has length > 0 but bytes ==

245

NULL. We have to relax out tcl_obj-sanity test for this case to avoid

246

false-positives from assertions()

247

248

2014-09-22 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

249

250

- documentation update to reflect recent changes

251

257

calledclass"

258

259

nsf.c:

260

- remove redundant null check for object and add assertion

261

- remove duplicate entry for returns_nonnull

262

- serializer: keep parameter properties in xotcl parameter lists

263

264

265

266

- Revise Object documentation, align with output from quant.tcl helper

267

- Reflect recent parameter syntax change in corresponding test

268

- Revise Class documentation, align with output from quant.tcl helper

269

- Provide corrections for some syntax strings

270

271

2014-07-09 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

272

273

- no need to "set nodashalnum for int types"

274

- extended regression test

275

276

2014-06-23 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

277

278

nsf.c:

279

- provide error messages for ambiguous abbreviations

280

- extend regression test (now 5460 tests)

281

282

2014-06-23 ssoberni <stefan.sobernig@wu-wien.ac.at>

283

284

Revised life-cycle section further

285

286

2014-06-23 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

287

288

nsf.c:

289

- dropped unused object::info::is

290

- renamed ::nsf::methods::class::info::filtermethods ->

291

::nsf::methods::class::info::filters

292

::nsf::methods::object::info::filtermethods ->

293

::nsf::methods::object::info::filters

294

::nsf::methods::class::info::mixinclasses ->

295

::nsf::methods::class::info::mixins

296

::nsf::methods::object::info::mixinclasses ->

297

::nsf::methods::object::info::mixins

298

299

2014-06-23 ssoberni <stefan.sobernig@wu-wien.ac.at>

300

301

- Change overview illustration on object life cycle in Class.man

302

- Adjust for changes in plural reform

303

304

2014-06-22 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

305

306

nx.tcl: pluralism reform part 3

307

- introduced simple plural form "mixins" and "filters" for

308

introspection

309

- moved differentiated interface into slot methods. the

310

slot methods "get" stay symmetrically to "set", but

311

additional methods "classes" or "methods" are used like

312

"guard" to obtain partial results of the mixin and filter

313

specs

314

- changed info methods /cls/ info mixin classes -> /cls/

315

info mixins /cls/ info filter methods -> /cls/ info

316

filters /obj/ info object mixin classes -> /obj/ info

317

object mixins /obj/ info object filter methods -> /obj/

318

info object filters

319

- dropped /cls/ info mixin guard /cls/ info filter guard

320

/obj/ info object mixin guard /obj/ info object filter

321

guard

322

- added /cls/ mixin classes /cls/ filter methods /obj/ object filter

323

methods /obj/ object mixin classes

324

325

2014-06-21 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

326

327

nx.tcl:

328

- make all __* system methods in nx redefine-protected

329

- let "nsf::configure objectsystem" return handles and protections as

330

well

331

332

2014-06-20 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

333

334

nx.tcl: pluralism reform part 2

335

- changed methods /cls/ info subclass -> /cls/ info

336

subclasses /cls/ info superclass -> /cls/ info

337

superclasses /cls/ mixin ... -> /cls/ mixins /cls/ filter

338

... -> /cls/ filters /cls/ object mixin ... -> /cls/

339

object mixins /cls/ object filter ... -> /cls/ object

340

filters

341

- changed configure parameters /cls/ configure -mixin ->

342

/cls/ configure -mixins /cls/ configure -filter -> /cls/

343

configure -filters /obj/ configure -object-mixin -> /obj/

344

configure -object-mixins /obj/ configure -object-filter

345

-> /obj/ configure -object-filters

346

- added handling for calling relation slot with unknown sub method

347

348

2014-06-20 ssoberni <stefan.sobernig@wu-wien.ac.at>

349

350

- Revising lifecycle section; adding TODOs

351

- Restructuring __* doc fragments to an life-cycle section

352

353

2014-06-19 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

354

355

nsf.c:

356

- allow abbreviated nonpos args

357

- change name of relation slot "superclass" to "superclasses". (part of

358

a planned change to use plural for setvalued parameters, "info

359

superclasses" and similar changes for mixins/filters will probably

360

follow)

361

362

2014-06-18 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

363

364

nsf.c:

365

- define means to protect "undefined" internally-directly

366

called methods __alloc and __dealloc in nx. This is

367

achieved mostly via a an additional value in a method

368

declaration in ::nsf::objectsystem::create. Example:

369

-class.dealloc {__dealloc ::nsf::methods::class::dealloc

370

1}

371

- extend regression test

372

373

2014-06-18 ssoberni <stefan.sobernig@wu-wien.ac.at>

374

375

- Adding missing doc fragments on __* methods for Object and Class

376

377

2014-06-17 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

378

379

nsf.c:

380

- relax the meaning of noleadingdash to allow negative

381

numbers

382

- rename noleadingdash to e.g. nodashalnum

383

384

2014-06-16 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

385

386

- extend regression test

387

- update parse context

388

- remove debugging output

389

- improve argument name

390

391

2014-06-15 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

392

393

- extended regression test

394

- cleanup, reduce verbosity

395

- minor cleanup

396

- allow to configure verbosity in test sets

397

398

genttclAPI.tcl:

399

- added option "-flags", which can be used for every

400

parameter. example: .... -flags NSF_ARG_NOLEADINGDASH ....

401

- experimental: use NSF_ARG_NOLEADINGDASH for pattern "info subclass"

402

to improve error messages.

403

404

nsf.c:

405

- checked, that all CallDirectly() cases, where method is

406

dispatched (no direct call) are covered by the regression

407

tests

408

- avoid double memcpy() in dispatch recreate by using

409

ObjectDispatch() rather than CallMethod()

410

- removed memcpy() in call-directy for "create"

411

- some more cleanup

412

413

2014-06-14 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

414

415

nsf.c: parameter passing reform

416

- don't pass full argument list for filtering methods calle

417

further methods from C (such as new/create/... ) to allow

418

processing of e.g. "--" in "new" to separate arguments to

419

"new" cleanly from arguments passed to "create". Now we

420

can use e.g. "C new -- -childof 123" in case class C has

421

a property "childof".

422

- extend c-generator to accept option "-objv0" to pass the

423

original "objv[0]" to the called command. Since we had

424

previously "allargs", we have to pass the objv[0] now

425

differently

426

- more thorough checking ISOBJ(someObj) macro for asserts

427

(use "assert(ISOBJ(someObj))" instead of just

428

"assert(someObj)")

429

- extend regression test

430

431

2014-06-13 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

443

- add assertions for class colorings

444

445

459

460

- Add basic test for unexpected-#-args error in ensembles

461

- Adding to the state of the method-path introspection reform;

462

introducing CallStackGetFrame() which can also be used to implement

463

CallStackGetTopFrame

464

465

2014-06-10 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

466

467

nsf.c:

468

- fix name paths in error messages triggered from ArgumentParse()

469

- move NsfMethodNamePath() out of NsfUnexpectedArgumentError() and

470

NsfUnexpectedNonposArgumentError()

471

- no need to call NsfMethodNamePath in NsfArgumentError()

472

- move NsfMethodNamePath() out of NsfUnexpectedArgumentError() and

473

NsfUnexpectedNonposArgumentError()

474

- move NsfMethodNamePath() out of NsfObjWrongArgs()

475

- added option "-dependent" to "info subclass"

476

- extended regression test

477

478

2014-06-10 ssoberni <stefan.sobernig@wu-wien.ac.at>

479

480

- Working on info sub-methods for Class

481

482

2014-06-09 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

483

484

- white-space change

485

486

nsf.c

487

- base MixinInvalidateObjOrders() on DependentSubClasses()

488

and avoid the need of using a separate hash table for

489

class-mixin handling. The new implementation is several

490

times faster and improves the speed of the functions

491

CleanupDestroyClass(), SuperclassAdd() and

492

NsfRelationClassMixinsSet(). Adding a class-mixin to

493

::xotcl::Object in OpenACS is more than 4x faster.

494

- remove obsolete function MixinResetOrderForInstances()

495

- rename ResetOrderOfClassesUsedAsMixins() to

496

ResetOrderOfObjectsUsingThisClassAsObjectMixin()

497

- used consistently DependentSubClasses() instead of

498

TransitiveSubClasses() for invalidations.

499

- extend regression test

500

501

2014-06-08 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

502

503

- fix a few more cases, where required accessor method "get" was missing

504

- omit warnings, when value of "expected" looks like a non-positional

505

parameter

506

507

2014-06-07 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

508

509

nsf.c:

510

- improve performance of MixinInvalidateObjOrders() by

511

about 30% by recompiling the list of the dependent classes

512

over and over again, since MixinInvalidateObjOrders()

513

iterates over the full list already.

514

- Document NsfRelationClassMixinsSet() and add nonnull declarations and

515

the usual assertions()

516

517

2014-06-06 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

518

519

- added experimental code feature CYCLIC_MIXIN_ERROR

520

521

2014-06-05 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

522

523

nsf.c:

524

- new function DependentSubClasses() to determine all

525

classes that inherit from a given class. The result

526

extend TransitiveSubClasses() by including class mixin

527

relationships.

528

- simplify NsfParameterCacheClassInvalidateCmd() by using the new

529

function DependentSubClasses(). With the new implementation,

530

NsfParameterCacheClassInvalidateCmd() is as efficient as before without

531

to MostGeneralSuperclass optimization (but being complete now) when

532

working on the root classes (an more efficient on subclasses).

533

534

2014-06-04 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

535

536

- fixed error message for forward ... onerror and method paths. The

537

command "C object mixin" returns now "::C object mixin

538

539

540

541

2014-06-03 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

542

543

- add ".add" file for mongodb interface

544

- use cget interface

545

- rename nsf::parameter:invalidate::classcache ->

546

nsf::parameter::cache::classinvalidate

547

nsf::parameter:invalidate::objectcache ->

548

nsf::parameter::cache::objectinvalidate

549

reasons: (a) remove single colon inside the name,

550

(b) put verb to the end

551

552

- use functions IsRootClass(), IsRootMetaClass() and

553

IsBaseClass() to access object/class properties

554

- add gcc attribute "pure"

555

556

nsf.c:

557

- cleanup of NsfParameterInvalidateClassCacheCmd(): performance

558

improvements. After the fixing of indirect mixin validation,

559

performance of invalidation went up by a factor of 5. At least, in some

560

important cases (invalidation of rootclasses like nx::Object /

561

xotcl::Object), we are again on the same level as before (actually

562

slightly faster).

563

564

2014-06-02 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

565

566

- reduce variable scopes

567

- fix error message

568

- add target for cppcheck with same arguments as for compilation

569

570

2014-06-02 ssoberni <stefan.sobernig@wu-wien.ac.at>

571

572

- Removing traces of nxdoc

573

574

2014-06-01 ssoberni <stefan.sobernig@wu-wien.ac.at>

575

576

- Fixing an example script for changes in getter/setter reform

577

578

2014-06-01 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

579

580

- updated migration guide and tutorial to reflect recent changes

581

- minor cleanup

582

- improve spelling

583

- update of TODO and regression test

584

- adapt mixinof.test to the additional information

585

- transform mixinof.test to newer style regression test with automated

586

object deletion

587

- add test file nsf-cmd.test

588

- ignore generated .txt files

589

590

nx.tcl:

591

- removed /cls/ info configure parameters /cls/ info configure /cls/

592

info syntax Use e.g. "/cls/ info lookup parameters create" instead

593

594

2014-06-01 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

595

596

- nsf.c:

597

- Let "/cls/ info mixinof -closure" return as well implicit mixin

598

classes to make it easier to determine class dependencies.

599

Example:

600

nx::Class create M0

601

nx::Class create M1 -superclass M0

602

nx::Class create M2 -superclass M1

603

nx::Class create C

604

nx::Class create D -superclass C

605

C mixin add M2

606

# M2 is mixed into C, and implicitly into D

607

#

608

# Since M2 is a subclass of M1, classes C and D depend as well

609

# on M1 and M0, as seen in the heritage:

610

? {C info heritage} ":M2 ::M1 ::M0 ::nx::Object"

611

? {D info heritage} ":M2 ::M1 ::M0 ::C ::nx::Object"

612

# previously, only "M2 info mixinof -closure" showed the

613

# mixin relations, even with "-closure", while M1 and M0 did not.

614

? {M2 info mixinof -closure} "::C ::D"

615

# now these show the same relations (in this example).

616

? {M1 info mixinof -closure} "::C ::D"

617

? {M0 info mixinof -closure} "::C ::D"

618

619

2014-06-01 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

620

621

- handle ensembles in info nx::help

622

- harden code

623

624

mongodb:

625

- upgrade to the newly released version 0.96 of the c-driver

626

- replace deprecated function mongoc_collection_delete by

627

mongoc_collection_remove

628

- tested with MongoDB v2.6.1

629

630

2014-05-31 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

631

632

- provide a minimal nx::help

633

- provide contextObj when required argument is missing

634

635

nsf.c:

636

- added options to filter output from ::nsf::cmd::info

637

parameter options (args, syntax, parameter)

638

- deleted:

639

- "/obj/ info lookup configure parameters ?pattern?"

640

- "/obj/ info lookup configure syntax"

641

- added:

642

- "/obj/ info lookup parameters /methodName/ ?pattern?"

643

- "/obj/ info lookup syntax /methodName/ ?pattern?" This

644

covers as well

645

- "/obj/ info lookup parameters configure|create|new|...

646

?pattern?"

647

648

- extend regression test

649

- remove dead code

650

- white-space change

651

- improve error message

652

653

nsf.c, gentclAPI.tcl:

654

- new argument types "virtualobjectargs" and

655

"virtualclassargs" for context-specific argument

656

resolutions: when a context object is provided, arguments

657

of type "virtualobjectargs" are determined based on the

658

slots applicable for the object (like "... lookup ..."),

659

arguments of type "virtualclassargs" are resolved against

660

a class. These types are used as follows: /obj/ configure

661

/virtualobjectargs/ /cls/ create /name/

662

/virtualclassargs/ /cls/ recreate /name/

663

/virtualclassargs/ /cls/ new ?-childof /obj/?

664

/virtualclassargs/ This new feature allows us to provide

665

better error messages and to make much of the "... info

666

... configure parameter ..." infrastructure much less

667

important.

668

- For "virtualclassargs" we need the functionality to

669

obtain from the C-Code based on a class the configure

670

parameters applicable to objects of this class.

671

- add argument "-context ..." to "cmd::info" to pass the

672

context object (so far the only place where the

673

context-object is used)

674

- object system configuration parameters changes: new:

675

-class.configureparameter new: -object.configureparameter removed:

676

-class.objectparameter

677

678

2014-05-30 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

679

680

nsf.c

681

- renamed parameter::get -> parameter::info

682

- renamed method::get -> cmd::info

683

684

gentclAPI.tcl:

685

- handle duplicated domains by folding these to a single definition

686

687

nsf.c:

688

- added command nsf::method::get.

689

Rationale: provide a central place to obtain information

690

about all kind of method handles, which might be

691

- scripted and c-based methods

692

- nsf::procs

693

- plain tcl procs

694

- cmds (with and without parameter definitions)

695

- make results of ListMethod() robust against missing

696

information (e.g. plain tcl cmds, missing object registrations,

697

etc.)

698

- factor out common code for ListMethod call sites

699

for per-object methods, instance methods and procs/cmds

700

to ListMethodResolve()

701

- return errors from failing converter registrations

702

- extend regression test (new test set nsf-method.test)

703

704

2014-05-30 ssoberni <stefan.sobernig@wu-wien.ac.at>

705

706

- Done with first version of Class.man

707

708

2014-05-29 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

709

710

- also drop class level "info configure"

711

712

nx.tcl

713

- drop short form "/obj/ info configure" for now

714

- make output of "/obj/ info lookup configure syntax" equivalent to

715

"/obj/ info configure"

716

- updated TODOs

717

- updated documentation

718

- simplify slot parameter settings for object-mixins and object-filter

719

lightly by omitting redundant method name

720

- minor cleanup

721

722

2014-05-29 ssoberni <stefan.sobernig@wu-wien.ac.at>

723

724

- Some polishing of Object.man

725

- Done with 'info method *' ensemble

726

- Working on 'info object *' ensemble

727

728

2014-05-28 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

729

730

- make error-checks as unlikely to succeed

731

- we must replace ::get command with ::set commands for reestablishing

732

relationships

733

- return class of desired object in nsf::parameter::get when provided

734

735

nsf.c:

736

- extend nsf::parameter::get to obtained more detailed

737

information for objects/classes/metaclasses/baseclasses

738

and specified types

739

- extend regression test

740

741

2014-05-28 ssoberni <stefan.sobernig@wu-wien.ac.at>

742

743

- Add doc fragment about 'info variable *'

744

745

2014-05-28 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

746

747

nx.tcl

748

- switch from "/obj/ info parameter" -> "nsf::parameter::get" to reduce

749

potential semantic confusion of info options. "info parameter" was

750

not object/class specific at all, but is just a syntax extractor

751

752

nsf.c

753

- force again literal "-guard" in a "mixinreg" type to

754

avoid potential confusions

755

- Base nsfRelationSet for mixins on cmds rather than

756

TclObjs to avoid confusions and duplication of guard

757

detection logic

758

- Add interp to NsfMixinregGet() and NsfFilterregGet() to

759

be able to return error messages

760

- return more error message from mixinreg converter

761

- provide at least minimal support for "funny class names"

762

(i.e. containing spaces)

763

- FinalObjectDeletion: don't enforce namespace = 1 for

764

cases with weird namespace deletion order

765

- extended regression test

766

767

2014-05-28 ssoberni <stefan.sobernig@wu-wien.ac.at>

768

769

- Amend doc of filter|mixin clear, re-instate -guard in filter|mixin set

770

- Adding doc for the two new lookup sub-methods

771

772

2014-05-27 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

773

774

- added methods "info lookup filters ?-guards? ?/pattern/?"

775

and "info lookup methods *-guards? ?/pattern/?"

776

- extended regression test

777

- have "filter|mixin clear" return the list of former|removed

778

filters|mixins.

779

- disallow arguments for "... info configure"

780

781

2014-05-27 ssoberni <stefan.sobernig@wu-wien.ac.at>

782

783

- Complete info lookup doc

784

- Adjust filter|mixin method for recent changes; working on info ensemble

785

doc

786

787

2014-05-27 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

788

789

- improve handling of space in object names

790

791

nsfObj.c:

792

- allow to omit "-guard" within arguments to flag

793

definition of a filter/mixin guard

794

- extended regression test

795

796

- name parameter option "slotset" instead of "slotassign"

797

- use "mixin|filter clear" instead of "mixin|filter unset"

798

799

2014-05-26 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

800

801

nsf.c:

802

- fixed unary argument passing notation for "-nocomplain" of nsf::var

803

and for 42 other options of other commands

804

805

nx.tcl:

806

- added flag -nocomplain to "/obj/ /prop/ unset ?-nocomplain?"

807

- renamed nsf::relation to nsf::relation::set and added

808

nsf::relation::get in accordance with nsf::var::get

809

810

nsf.c:

811

- added nsf::var::get and "::nx::var get" to provide selector based

812

interface for variable reading (used in slot-method get of

813

nx::VariableSlot)

814

- cleanup of nx.tcl and TODO

815

816

2014-05-26 ssoberni <stefan.sobernig@wu-wien.ac.at>

817

818

- Updated doc fragments to reflect recent changes

819

820

2014-05-26 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

821

822

nsf.c:

823

- finish implementation of NsfForwardPrintError()

824

- use NsfForwardPrintError() in ForwardArg() for all error messages

825

826

traits:

827

- define simple setter methods "requiredMethods" and

828

"requiredVariables" to avoid to "set" these explicitly

829

- fix compilation for OpenSolaris (e.g. OmniOS)

830

831

2014-05-25 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

832

833

- fix compilation for OpenSolaris (e.g. OmniOS)

834

835

2014-05-23 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

836

837

- cleaned up relation slot mixin variants

838

839

nx.tcl:

840

- reworked error message generation of slot-forwarder (list all

841

available slot methods with prefix value=)

842

843

xotcl2:

844

- use xotcl::RelationSlot instead of nx::Relationslot in xotcl2

845

(we can more value=assign here).

846

- fix load paths for sub-libs (e.g. mongodb) in regression test

847

848

nx.tcl:

849

- add slot method value=unset to nx::RelationSlot and

850

nx::VariableSlot

851

- extended regression test

852

- added likely/unlikely to result == TCL_OK etc.

853

854

xotcl2:

855

- use value=set instead of value=assign

856

- simplify "-parameter" implementation

857

- add setters for "name", "domain", and "default" to xotcl::Attribute

858

for backward compatibility

859

860

mongodb:

861

- by directing calls to the setter, it is now more complex

862

to determine the true calling object for an converter,

863

since the set operation might be routed though the slot

864

object. It would be nice to have framework support for

865

this.

866

- fix 2 error messages

867

- provide shorter tracebacks by using "return -code error ..." rather

868

than "error ..."

869

870

nsf.c:

871

- fix one more subtle case of an error being swallowed: for xotcl, the

872

constructor returns the list of residual arguments. In case there was

873

an error, it was possible that the returned residual arguments

874

overwrote the error message in the interp result

875

876

2014-05-23 ssoberni <stefan.sobernig@wu-wien.ac.at>

877

878

- Adjust variable doc for recent changes

879

- Extending mixin/filter doc to cover guards

880

- Adding filter doc fragment

881

- Adjust mixin doc for recent changes

882

- Adjusting property doc to reflect recent changes

883

884

2014-05-22 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

885

886

- don't delete system slot ::xotcl::Attribute on cleanup

887

888

nx.tcl, xotcl2.tcl:

889

- use value=* as names for internally called and

890

forwarder-called accessor methods

891

- disallow "assign" for nx::variableSlots

892

893

nsf.c:

894

- rename default slot methods add/get to value=add/value=get

895

- provide an error message, when referring to a non-existing slot object

896

897

2014-05-21 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

898

899

nx.tcl:

900

- use set/get/add as slot methods for

901

get/configure/incremental operations

902

- demangle slots for nx/xotcl2 further

903

904

xotcl2:

905

- use assign/get/add as slot methods for get/configure/incremental

906

operations

907

- use object system configuration for -slot.get and -slot.set

908

- allow configuration of internally called "slot.get" and "slot.assign"

909

methods via objectsystem::create

910

911

2014-05-20 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

912

913

- enforce usage of "get" for all slots in nx

914

- TODO: check, what in detail "parameter" in xtocl2 inherit from

915

nx::variableslot (e.g. needsForwarder?)

916

- enforce using "set" for filter/object-filter in slot operations (same

917

as for mixins)

918

919

nx.tcl:

920

- remove setter methods from BootstrapVariableSlots

921

- reducing interface of BootstrapVariableSlots by setting methods

922

protected

923

924

2014-05-18 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

925

926

- put test cases for all kind of mix setter / getter together in one

927

test case

928

- reduce verbosity

929

930

nx.tcl:

931

- add "set" as a method name for relation slots

932

- implemented relation slot "mixin" and "object-mixin" via

933

"slotassign" to disallow "/obj/ mixin /value/" and "/obj/

934

object mixin /value/" to use instead "/obj/ mixin set

935

/value/" and "/obj/ object mixin set /value/" while

936

keeping "configure" and "cget" working. This has the

937

advantage that "/obj/ mixin set" does not try to replace

938

the mixin chain by "set"

939

- adapted regression test

940

- TODO: check, if we need the explicit "slotassign"? isn't

941

the presence of the slotObj sufficient? maybe

942

"-forwardToSlot" in relationSlots?

943

- TODO: demangle "slotassign" in "ObjectParameterSlot

944

protected method getParameterOptions" and check

945

interactions

946

- TODO: to the same as -mixin and -object-mixin to -filter

947

and -object-filter

948

- TODO: clean up relation slot mixin variants

949

- TODO: do we really like the fact that we have to write

950

now "B mixin set M2" instead of "B mixin M2"?

951

- TODO: should we disallow "B mixin" and enforce instead of

952

"B mixin get" ?

953

- TODO: we could as well allow "B mixin clear" instead of

954

"B mixin set {}"

955

- TODO: allow "set" for variable slots as well. Do we need "assign"?

956

957

nsf.c:

958

- allow parameter option "method=" for slotassign as well.

959

rationale: this allows to use the parameter

960

"forwardername" to specify a different forwarder target

961

method (e.g. in case of object-mixins). The method is

962

used both in "configure" and "cget".

963

- allow method name to consist of max tow words in relation slots (e.g.

964

"-methodname {mixin set}"}

965

966

2014-05-17 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

967

968

- extend bagel example slightly

969

- finalize dropping of setter methods for nx

970

- show info line for every test case

971

972

2014-05-16 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

973

974

- add flag "-onerror" to nsf::forward::method to handle

975

errors during dispatch of a forwarder (not all error

976

messages of forwarder are already transformed)

977

- added log-level Info which prints always, e.g. for

978

"-verbose" flag of forwarder

979

- drop setter-rule from properties (use always forwarder)

980

981

- drop "/obj/ /prop/" and "/obj/ /prop/ /value/" in favor of

982

"/obj/ /prop/ get" and "/obj/ /prop/ assign /value/"

983

to achieve better orthogonality with e.g. incremental properties

984

985

2014-05-14 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

986

987

- replace empty-named arrays by dicts

988

989

2014-05-13 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

990

991

- fix change of semantics when default multiplicity (1..1) is combined

992

with lower bound preserving incremental (results in 1..n instead of

993

0..n previously)

994

995

2014-05-12 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

996

997

- make sure that nsfDtrace.h has a newer timestamp than nsfDtrace.d

998

- preserve lower bound of multiplicity when incremental is

999

added

1000

- extend regression test

1001

- added more test cases for multiplicity and incremental

1002

1003

nx.tcl:

1004

- Define method "value" as a slot forwarder to allow for

1005

calling value-less slot methods like e.g. "get" despite

1006

of the arity-based forward dispatcher.

1007

- extend regression test

1008

1009

2014-05-12 ssoberni <stefan.sobernig@wu-wien.ac.at>

1010

1011

2014-05-10 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1025

1026

- complete nonnull assertion cleanup to 80% of nsf.c

1027

- complete nonnull assertion cleanup to 33% of nsf.c

1028

- complete nonnull assertion cleanup to 33% of nsf.c

1035

1036

2014-05-09 ssoberni <stefan.sobernig@wu-wien.ac.at>

1037

1038

- Add argument to last discussion item

1039

- Add another incremental TODO

1040

- Adding discussion items

1041

1042

2014-05-09 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1043

1044

- finishing checking of first 25% of of nonnull assertions in nsf.c

1045

- added still more nonnull assertions

1046

1047

2014-05-09 ssoberni <stefan.sobernig@wu-wien.ac.at>

1048

1049

- Drafted a variable doc fragment, and revised the property's one to make

1050

the (subtle) difference clear

1051

1052

2014-05-09 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1053

1054

- added shortcut for MixinSearchProc when mixinOrder is NULL

1055

- work on nonnull

1056

1057

2014-05-08 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1058

1059

1063

1064

2014-05-08 ssoberni <stefan.sobernig@wu-wien.ac.at>

1065

1066

- Adding incremental doc to property doc fragment

1068

2014-05-08 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1069

1070

- complete nonnull+assert adding in .c-files other than nsf.c

1071

1072

2014-05-08 ssoberni <stefan.sobernig@wu-wien.ac.at>

1073

1074

- Adding todo on multiplicities

1075

1076

2014-05-08 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1077

1078

- add asserts to nsfError.c

1079

- fixed all over-eager nonnull cases for optimizing with gcc and clang

1080

(works up to -O3 except gcc 4.9.0)

1081

1082

2014-05-07 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1083

1084

- added nonnull for args of type Tcl_Command and ClientData

1085

- add asserts for nonnull

1086

1087

2014-05-07 ssoberni <stefan.sobernig@wu-wien.ac.at>

1088

1089

- Starting documenting info ensemble

1090

1091

2014-05-06 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1092

1093

- provide nonnull statements for all functions in nsf.c

1094

- some more code cleanup

1095

- complete asserts due to nonnull

1096

1097

2014-05-05 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1098

1099

- update more copyright notices

1100

- update copyright notices

1101

- update copyright notice

1102

1103

nsf.c:

1104

- simplify few inner code pieces based on assertions

1105

- add several more assertions based on nonnull specifications.

1106

- use nx rather than xotcl2 terminology in nsf::method::forward

1107

1108

2014-05-04 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1109

1110

- renamed "-methodprefix" to "-prefix" in nx, since the prefix can be

1111

applied as well applied to a cmd.

1112

1113

2014-05-04 ssoberni <stefan.sobernig@wu-wien.ac.at>

1114

1115

- Adding doc fragment about require method

1116

1117

2014-05-03 ssoberni <stefan.sobernig@wu-wien.ac.at>

1118

1119

- Adding a todo

1120

- nsf.c, NsfForwardMethod(): Make sure that a 2nd argument

1121

is available for prepending the methodprefix. Earlier,

1122

NSF crashed in case of a missing 2nd arg.

1123

- Added some basic tests on -methodprefix.

1124

1125

2014-05-03 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1126

1127

- use nonnull variable attributes for prototypes (nsf.h, nsfInt.h,

1128

nsf.c)

1129

1130

nsf.c:

1131

- de-spaghetti precedence computations for multiple

1132

inheritance and improve documentation

1133

- get rid of // comments

1134

- stubsPtr can't be NULL there

1135

1136

2014-05-02 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1137

1138

- remove false alarm

1139

- deactivated "-onerror", since its semantics are expressible via

1140

try/catch, and there are no regression tests for xotcl and nx, and we

1141

could not find any script that uses this

1142

1143

2014-05-01 ssoberni <stefan.sobernig@wu-wien.ac.at>

1144

1145

- Adjusting forward doc, adding TODO

1146

- forward.test: Adding some tests

1147

1148

2014-05-01 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1149

1150

- use in forwarders "-frame object" instead of "-objframe" in nx for

1151

consistency with other calls (e.g. dispatch). Other values for

1152

"-frame" are not allowed. (btw, XOTcl has "-objscope")

1153

- move "checkalways for forwarders and aliases" to RFEs and comment it

1154

1155

forwarders:

1156

- use for output of forward ... -verbose NsfLog(...NSF_LOG_NOTICE...)

1157

instead of fprintf() to make it redirect-able

1158

- RFE "provide %method" as keyword like %proc" was already

1159

implemented. Dropping %proc would break XOTcl2

1160

compatibility.

1161

- adding a test case

1162

1163

2014-04-30 ssoberni <stefan.sobernig@wu-wien.ac.at>

1164

1165

- Continue working on forward doc, adding some tests

1166

- Adding some todos

1167

- Working on Object.man, in particular forward

1168

- library/nx/nx.tcl: Pulling out method contracts (pre- and

1169

postconditions) from NX for the time being. Corresponding tests have

1170

been commented out or, if applicable, turned into XOTcl2-specific tests.

1171

1172

2014-04-30 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1173

1174

- finalize autoconf quoting

1175

1176

2014-04-29 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1177

1178

- fix configure.ac quoting

1179

- stick closer to TEA conventions (keep tclconfig-sh in

1180

tclconfig directory)

1181

- remove obsolete version of install-sh, copy manifested

1182

version to mongodb library

1183

- fix more configure quoting

1184

1185

2014-04-18 ssoberni <stefan.sobernig@wu-wien.ac.at>

1186

1187

- Adding doc fragment on 'method'

1188

1189

2014-04-14 ssoberni <stefan.sobernig@wu-wien.ac.at>

1190

1191

- doc/Object.man: Adding documentation on alias (doc/alias.man.inc) and

1192

delete (doc/delete.man.inc)

1193

1194

2014-04-14 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1195

1196

small introspection reform:

1197

- Introspection for commands and arguments did not work for

1198

cmds defined in sub-packages (such as mongodb). We keep

1199

now this information in hash tables and maintain a slim

1200

interface for this.

1201

- fix generation of pkgIndex.tcl for mongodb

1202

1203

2014-04-08 ssoberni <stefan.sobernig@wu-wien.ac.at>

1204

1205

- Some more refactoring

1206

- Refactor the include file slightly, so that Object/Class-specific

1207

parameters etc. of a shared method documentation can be provided in the

1208

respective Object.man/Class.man files

1209

- Continue working in man pages, introducing a first shared section using

1210

[include] and [vset]

1211

1212

2014-04-06 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1213

1214

- tested with MongoDB v2.4.10 and J mongodb-c-driver 0.94.1

1215

- moving .m4 files to subdirectory as recommended

1216

- update generated configure files

1217

- replace obsolete autoconf macros

1218

- replace obsolete autoconf macros

1219

- update to must recent build files (tcl.m4 and install-sh) from tcl

1220

source repository

1221

1222

2014-04-05 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1223

1224

build-process:

1225

- replace make.tcl by the much simpler mkIndex.tcl:

1226

* Does not use pkg_mkIndex

1227

* Does not load binary files (problem for cross compiling)

1228

* Requires package provide with constant in one line.

1229

1230

2014-04-03 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1231

1232

- reduce variable scope

1233

- remove redundant NULL tests

1234

- improve safety mof macro ObjStr()

1235

1236

2014-03-31 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1237

1238

- improve code documentation

1239

- add some more tests to the regression test suite

1240

1241

2014-03-29 ssoberni <stefan.sobernig@wu-wien.ac.at>

1242

1243

- generic/nsf.c: Avoiding excessive allocation/deallocation of

1244

temporary hash tables when invalidating per-class objparam caches in

1245

NsfParameterInvalidateClassCacheCmd().

1246

1247

2014-03-29 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1248

1249

- extend regression test

1250

1251

2014-03-29 ssoberni <stefan.sobernig@wu-wien.ac.at>

1252

1253

- generic/nsf.c: Use GetAllClassMixinsOf() instead of

1254

TransitiveSubClasses() when invalidating per-class caches. Added two

1255

tests.

1256

1257

2014-03-28 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1258

1259

nsf.c:

1260

- remove obsolete code

1261

- invalidate parameter caches of subclasses on

1262

NsfParameterInvalidateClassCacheCmd unless during

1263

shutdown. Otherwise some classes might not become aware

1264

of properties added later to superclasses.

1265

- extended regression test

1266

1267

2014-03-25 ssoberni <stefan.sobernig@wu-wien.ac.at>

1268

1269

- Adding to Object.man: cget, configure, move, copy, ...

1270

1271

2014-03-23 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1272

1273

nx-mongo:

1274

- added command "::mongo::status /mongoConn/"

1275

- extended regression test

1276

1277

2014-03-22 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1278

1279

nsf.c:

1280

- fix case, where NsfDStringPrintf() failed (when print

1281

llength including \0 was 1 byte longer than print buffer)

1282

- make sure, that the list kept for the cached parameter is just built

1283

from unshared objects; otherwise Tcl append will abort

1284

1285

nx.tcl:

1286

- new package "nx::volatile"

1287

- don't define configure parameter "-volatile" per default;

1288

use "package req nx::volatile" instead

1289

- don't define per method "volatile" per default;

1290

use "::nsf::method::require ::nx::Object volatile" instead

1291

- get rid of -volatile in nx.tcl and serializer

1292

- update/extend regression test

1293

1294

nsf.c:

1295

- fix case, where NsfDStringPrintf() failed (when print llength

1296

including \0 was 1 byte longer than print buffer)

1297

- added mongo::cursor::aggregate

1298

1299

2014-03-21 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1300

1301

- added mongo::collection::stats

1302

- extended regression test

1303

1304

2014-03-19 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1305

1306

nx-mongo:

1307

- fixed surprising compiler message "alignment of array

1308

elements is greater than element size" when using e.g.

1309

"bson_iter_t i[1]"

1310

- some c-code cleanup

1311

- tested with mongodb-c-driver 0.92.3

1312

1313

2014-03-17 ssoberni <stefan.sobernig@wu-wien.ac.at>

1314

1315

- Started working on an authoritative man page for nx::Object, still

1316

cleaning up and still tweaking the doctools markup

1317

1318

2014-03-15 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1319

1320

- mongodb's c-driver changed version number from 0.93.0 to 0.92.1;

1321

followed the change in README

1322

1323

2014-03-14 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1324

1325

- tested with mongodb-c-driver 0.93.0

1326

1327

2014-03-12 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1328

1329

- since mongoc_gridfs_get_files is supported since today by the

1330

mongo-c-driver, we do not need it private implementation any more.

1331

all dependencies on private header files are removed by now.

1332

1333

2014-03-09 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1334

1335

- adjust to newest version of mongo-c-driver

1336

- remove one dependency for private header file

1337

1338

2014-03-07 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1339

1340

- move close of the pseudo comment for syntax highlighter out of quoted

1341

block

1342

1343

2014-03-04 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1344

1345

xotcl2:

1346

- prevent strange error messages, when "abstract" is called with quotes

1347

in the argument list.

1348

1349

2014-03-02 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1350

1351

- represent BSON_TYPE_REGEX as pairs (regexp + options) in

1352

the Tcl representation to preserve regular expression

1353

options

1354

- update to newest version of mongo-c-driver and libbson from Github

1355

1356

nx-mongo:

1357

- optional support for mongodb connection pools (compile

1358

time macro USE_CLIENT_POOL controls this, per default,

1359

this is on)

1360

- allow to pass "-metadata" to gridfile::create to ease

1361

metadata attachment to grid-files

1362

- some convenience improvements in nx-mongo.tcl (ability to

1363

ignore attributes in "bson encode", ability to unset

1364

attributes in gridfs, ...)

1365

- bump version numbers of nsfmongo to 0.3 and nx-monogo to 0.5

1366

1367

2014-02-26 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1368

1369

nsf.c:

1370

- let [current methodpath] return full path (similar to

1371

-path option in "info methods"

1372

- handle collateral damage in regression test due to changed result of

1373

"current methodpath"

1374

- add traits.test to the regression tests

1375

1376

nx::traits:

1377

- handle ensemble methods correctly (use full method path

1378

for resolution)

1379

- add new regression tests for traits

1380

1381

nsf.c:

1382

- fix small memory leak in multiple inheritance code.

1383

- all regression tests rerun cleanly with --enable-memcount=yes

1384

1385

2014-02-25 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1386

1387

- raise an error, when an ensemble methods redefined a plain method

1388

- add incr/decr refcount for callInfoObj in unknown handling

1389

- deactivated suspicious assert() in NsfMethodNamePath()

1390

1391

nsf.c:

1392

- change name of enumeratorConverterEntry to

1393

Nsf_EnumeratorConverterEntry, move it with NSF_ARG_*

1394

flags to tcl.h to make it available in derived modules

1395

using the converter

1396

- Added editor hints for a more uniform appearance

1397

1398

- change configure flags from --with-mongodb to --with-mongoc=... and

1399

--with-bson

1400

1401

nx-monogo:

1402

- Updated the mongo-c-driver and libbson to the actual tip

1403

version from Github (this is a significant change, since

1404

10gen essentially changed the officially supported

1405

c-driver of MongoDB)

1406

- mongo-c-driver was more or less new-implementation, since

1407

structure and names changed in the mongo-c-driver

1408

substantially, several functions were added, several

1409

were dropped. The new interface supports now e.g. mongo

1410

URIs, and should be faster (by using collection objects

1411

instead of connection handles)

1412

- Although the low-level nsf interface changed

1413

significantly, the high level (nx level) interface

1414

remained unaffected.

1415

- Configure has now --with-mongoc=... and --with-bson

1416

instead of --with-mongodb

1417

- New commands: mongo::collection::open /mongoConn/

1418

/dbName/ /collectionName/ mongo::collection::close

1419

/collection/ mongo::gridfs::store_string /content/ /name/

1420

/contentType/

1421

- Make use of the new collection handle mongo::count

1422

/mongoConn/ /ns/ ... -> mongo::collection::count

1423

/collection/ ... mongo::index /mongoConn/ /ns/ ... ->

1424

mongo::collection::index /collection/ ... mongo::insert

1425

/mongoConn/ /ns/ ... -> mongo::collection::insert

1426

/collection/ ... mongo::query /mongoConn/ /ns/ ... ->

1427

mongo::collection::query /collection/ ... mongo::remove

1428

/mongoConn/ /ns/ ... -> mongo::collection::delete

1429

/collection/ ... mongo::update /mongoConn/ /ns/ ... ->

1430

mongo::collection::update /collection/ ...

1431

mongo::cursor::find /mongoConn/ /ns/ ... ->

1432

mongo::cursor::find /collection/ ...

1433

- nsf::mongo::connect receives now a mongoc_uri

1434

https://github.com/mongodb/mongo-c-driver/blob/master/doc/mongoc_uri.txt

1435

- The gridfs interface allows now to store multiple

1436

revisions of a file

1437

- The gridfs interface allows now upload files from a string

1438

- The gridfs interface allows to refer to files by other

1439

attributes than just the filename (e.g. the mongo id).

1440

- Modified/new grid-file functions mongo::gridfile::create

1450

- nx.tcl: Throw error exceptions using "return -code error", to exclude

1451

the unevaluated error cmd statement from the trace message

1452

- At two or three locations, we used to compute the method path using

1453

different helpers (CallStackMethodPath, NsfMethodNamePath) etc. I

1454

tried to unify this by revising NsfMethodNamePath to accomodate the

1455

different uses.

1456

- Besides, for required-argument checks, I included the method path

1457

(for ensemble invocations) into the error messages.

2014-02-17 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1460

1461

- improve performance of mongo->tcl conversion by using predefined

1462

global strings

1463

1464

nx-mongo:

1465

- updated documentation (switch back to mongo-c-driver, but

1466

comment usage of tagged version v0.8.1)

1467

- added support for rep types (allow for mappings between

1468

certain instance variables such as arrays or dicts to

1469

customizable representations in MongoDB)

1470

- added nx-serialize to test cases (simple state

1471

persistance for nx objects)

1472

- added nx-rep to test cases (rep types for "array" and "dict")

1473

- provide datarootdir to get rid of warning during configure

1474

1475

2014-02-14 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1476

1477

- fix bug in interaction between up-level method from tcl procs

1478

1479

-nsf.c:

1480

- fix bug in interaction between uplevel method and

1481

interceptor transparency

1482

- extend regression test

1483

1484

2014-02-07 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1485

1486

- in case of multiple inheritance, make sure that all supporting

1487

classes haver already a precedence order defined

1488

1489

2014-02-04 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1490

1491

- implement simple persistent handle management based on per-thread

1492

objects

1493

- reduce verbosity for FreeUnsetTraceVariable

1494

- return TCL_OK, even when FreeUnsetTraceVariable() fails (warning

1495

stays)

1496

- improve worrying in comments

1497

- fix stub provisioning for Tcl 8.6.*

1498

- change macro name from XOTCL to NSF

1499

1500

2014-01-26 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1501

1502

nx:

1503

- allow copy of objects with required arguments

1504

- use ::nsf::object::alloc in "copy" method

1505

- don't depend on method "trace", use directdispatch instead

1506

- remove method "-noinit" (nsf::object::alloc makes it

1507

obsolete)

1508

- extend regression test

1509

- restore traces after object-serialize

1510

1511

nsf.c:

1512

- when ::nsf::object::alloc is passed an empty name (2nd argument),

1513

behave like "new" method

1514

1515

2014-01-25 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1516

1517

- don't rely on the existence of a "trace" method

1518

1519

nsf.c:

1520

- new command ::nsf::object::alloc /class/ /obj/ ?/script/? alloc an

1521

object and execute script in the context. Can be used to regenerate

1522

an object in a old state.

1523

serializer:

1524

- fixed loading of objects with required data in the blueprint

1525

(many thanks for david hopfmueller for reporting this)

1526

- make use of nsf::object::alloc (1 command instead of 1 create + 2

1527

evals)

1528

- these changes improved loading time of blueprint by about 25%

1529

for OpenACS+xowiki

1530

1531

2014-01-21 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1532

1533

- make test for retrieving parsed parameters more safe

1534

1535

2014-01-08 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1536

1537

- update hint at end of build for NaviServer

1538

- strip trailing spaces

1539

- silence cppcheck

1540

1541

2014-01-07 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1542

1543

mongodb:

1544

- add flag "-puts" to method "show" of nx::mongo::Class to

1545

turnoff output to stdout

1546

- handle empty find operations for "find first"

1547

- added method pretty_variables to output available

1548

variables of a class in a similar style as in the

1549

definition

1550

- added low-level method "close" to nx::mongo

1551

1552

2014-01-01 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1553

1554

- Tcl's "package present" raises an error if the package is not present

1555

1556

2013-12-26 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1557

1558

- add more assertions

1559

- ensure computation of requires orders for recursive merges

1560

- make test more robust

1561

- strip trailing spaces

1562

- get rid of potentially uninitialized variables

1563

- make compilation more clean

1564

- add assertion for validity checking of precedence lists

1565

- improve error message

1566

- remove trailing space

1567

1568

2013-12-23 ssoberni <stefan.sobernig@wu-wien.ac.at>

1569

1570

- Fixing a mini-typo in nsf.c: unlinkely -> unlikely

1571

1572

2013-12-23 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1573

1574

- made linearization monotonic (for multiple inheritance)

1575

via single-inheritance linearization merging while

1576

preserving overall linearization rules

1577

- added flag NSF_LINEARIZER_TRACE

1578

- extended regression test

1579

- upgrade to mongo-c-driver to 0.8.1

1580

- added new flag "-ttl" to mongo::index

1581

- there seems to be now a different mongo-c-driver to be the

1582

preferred one, the old one is renamed to

1583

mongo-c-driver-legacy

1584

- link against nsf-stublib

1585

- bump version number to 0.2

1586

- don't try to load nx when building pkgindex for a binary package (.so

1587

or dylib)

1588

1589

generic/nsfPointer.c:

1590

- add reference counter to avoid double-inits and double-frees in case

1591

the table of converters is used from multiple interpreters

1592

1593

2013-12-22 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1594

1595

- change base stub table from XOTcl to NSF.

1596

- improve wording of error messages.

1597

- add parameter parser and converter to stub tables

1598

- make converter usable from c-based packages compiled with subs

1599

activated

1600

1601

2013-11-12 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1602

1603

xotcl2:

1604

- fixed "... info defaults ..." and "... info instdefaults

1605

..." emulation in XOTcl 2

1606

- fixed error message

1607

- extended regression test

1608

- bumped revision of nsf/xotcl/nx to 2.0b6

1609

1610

2013-10-22 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1611

1612

- nsf: added switch "-checkalways" to nsf::method::create

1613

- nx: added switch "checkalways" to "method" and "object

1614

method"

1615

- extended regression test

1616

1617

2013-10-19 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1618

1619

- minor cleanup:

1620

* reduce variable scope

1621

* remove uncalled static function

1622

1623

- added flag -checkalways to nsf::proc and nsf::asm::proc (for the

1624

latter just a placeholder for now). If the flag is used, it will cause

1625

argument testing independently from the "configure checkarguments"

1626

setting. To force argument checking always is useful e.g. for checking

1627

external values (e.g. in a web server)

1628

1629

2013-09-15 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1630

1631

- fix object method serializeExportedMethod: targetName might have been

1632

uninitialized

1633

1634

2013-08-27 ssoberni <stefan.sobernig@wu-wien.ac.at>

1635

1636

- Explored assertion support from an NX perspective, by reviewing the

1637

current implementation against Eiffel's RAC; along the way, I made

1638

::nsf::current more robust when being used in assertions

1639

1640

2013-08-08 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1641

1642

- don't call postcondition, when the command/invariant have returned

1643

already an error

1644

1645

nsf.c

1646

- fixed a bug where turning on assertions could swallow

1647

result-codes

1648

- extended regression test

1649

- fix potential crash when preconditions are empty

1650

- fix typo

1651

1652

2013-08-03 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1653

1654

- added sample script doc/example-scripts/tk-geo.tcl

1655

- minor cleanup of configure script

1656

- bump version number of mongo support to 0.2

1657

1658

2013-08-01 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1659

1660

mongodb:

1661

- integrated configuration of mongodb into toplevel

1662

configfile option:

1663

--with-mongodb=MONGO_INCLUDE_DIR,MONGO_LIB_DIR

1664

- added regression test files for mongodb support (low level

1665

(tcl-only) and high level (nx based oo support))

1666

- integrated mongodb-testfiles with "make test"

1667

- reduced verbosity of nx-mongo.tcl (added verbosity variable)

1668

1669

2013-07-31 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1670

1671

- added example scripts rosetta-sudoku.{tcl,html} and tk-ludo.{tcl,html}

1672

1673

mongodb:

1674

- don't call NsfLog() in Nsfmongo_Exit, since interp-data might be

1675

already cleaned up

1676

- improve robustness

1677

- added flag for verbosity

1678

1679

2013-07-30 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1680

1681

mongodb:

1682

- updated to most recent version of c-driver (0.7.1)

1683

- adapted to nx 2.0b5 (use everywhere cget interface)

1684

- tested with mongodb 2.4.5

1685

1686

- updated locomotive example to use nx::callback

1687

1688

2013-07-16 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1689

1690

- updated TODO

1691

1692

2013-07-15 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1693

1694

- prepare for providing nx as a tcl module (.tm file). this is just a

1695

preparation, since for testing, one cannot set up a path that prefers

1696

a local copy over a global installed one (the global tcl-site is

1697

preferred over the one specified in e.g. TCL8_5_TM_PATH)

1698

1699

2013-07-08 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1700

1701

- explore the usage of dict instead of anonymous array

1702

1703

nsf.c:

1704

- dont't use the default of a invocation parameter in

1705

"configure" when the object is already initialized. The

1706

default is in general only used when the parameter is not

1707

specified. We do not want e.g. superclass to be reset to

1708

::nx::Object, when configure is called on a class without

1709

arguments.

1710

- extended regression test

1711

1712

2013-07-02 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1713

1714

- remove debug statement

1715

1716

2013-06-24 Gustaf Neumann <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>

1717

1718

- keep this single pkgIndex.tcl

1719

- keep packages versions from 2.0 and 1.0 disjoint

1720
