459: - by default, RPL/2 uses "NONE" IMPLICIT when it's started in batch mode and
460: "ALL" IMPLICIT when it runs in interactive mode;
461: - when "NONE" IMPLICIT is set, STO intrinsic raises an error when it is used
462: to create or modify a global variable. Now, with "NONE" IMPLICIT, you have
463: to use SAVE to manipulate global variables;
464: - replace erroneous TAB by TBL in evaluation() and formateur_fichier()
465: subroutines;
466: - fix major memory access violation in evaluation subroutine. Only occurs
467: when 'X(i,j)' is evaluated on a matrix and when (i,j) points out of bounds;
468: - fix major bug in evaluation subroutine. 'X(i)' returns execution error
469: when X was a vector or a table.

500: - due to a very strange bug I've only seen on Solaris, ptmalloc3 is removed.
501: Solaris libresolv randomly uses ptmalloc3 and system allocator and makes heap
502: corruption. As internal memory management have been improved, a best fit
503: allocator like ptmalloc3 is not required anymore;
1.50 bertrand 504: - gnuplot is upgraded to 4.4.1;
505: - deadlock is fixed in signal handlers: same mutex was used in standard
506: subroutines (without protected sections by sigprocmask() or pthread_sigmask())

527: systems that does not provide correct POSIX or SysV semaphores subsystem;
528: - a dirty but not quick patch is written to workaround broken siginfo
529: structures. This patch has been successfully tested. It uses a segment of
1.50 bertrand 530: shared memory (Posix or SysV) and some semaphores (Posix or SysV) by process

551: Level 0 and 1 variables adresses were swapped when a global variable masked
552: a name of RPL/2 routine;
1.35 bertrand 553: - major bug is fixed in global variable creation subroutine. When a global
554: variable was created and when a local variable existed with the same name,
555: computed address of global variable was wrong;
556: - src/Makefile.am is modified to avoid a bug on several systems. libptmalloc3
557: is forced in front of all libraries.

561: when this structure is included in IFERR/THEN/END structure and when an error is
562: caught;
563: - major bug is fixed in analyse() subroutine. When evaluation() returned error
564: in a compiled program, analyse() caught this error twice and randomly aborted
565: with a segmentation error;
566: - TRIM and TOKENIZE replace both '\n' and '\t' by regular spaces;
567: - ATEXIT subroutine begins with an implicit CSTOP to avoid multiple stop
568: signals;

593: and to not use swap;
1.26 bertrand 594: - major bug is fixed in sql support. SQL connections were closed in all chield
595: process;
596: - standard allocator (malloc()/free()) is replaced by ptmalloc3 due to some bugs
597: discovered in Solaris thread safe allocators (libmalloc and libumem) that

616: information about shared variable was not copied to new processus structure;
1.19 bertrand 617: - some little memory leaks are fixed in evaluation(), recherche_type() and
618: sequenceur(). They only occured when syntax error were caught;
619: - IMPLICIT causes execution error instead system error;

664: - in formatted file, string format returned a variable length string even if
665: format was 'CHARACTER*(n)' (n characters string). Now, 'CHARACTER*(*)' returns
1.15 bertrand 666: a variable length string and 'CHARACTER*(n)' a fixed length string;
1.13 bertrand 667: - keyed access files support is added. Currently, only formatted files are
668: supported;
669: - direct access files support is added. Currenlty, these files can only be used
670: in formatted mode;
671: - virtual variables are now writte in UTF-8 and all special characters
672: in string are escaped;
1.12 bertrand 673: - all formatted files are now converted into UTF-8;
1.17 bertrand 674: - all file and unix socket names created by RPL/2 are now UTF-8 compliant;
1.12 bertrand 675: - RPL/2 tools (rpliconv, rplfile, rplpp and rplconvert) are now checked before
676: each execution (md5 and sha1 sums) to enhance security. If one of these tools
677: have been modified between RPL/2 compilation and current execution, RPL/2 aborts
678: on a non recoverable system error;
679: - openssl and sqlite3 libraries are added;
680: - RPL_HOME env variable is added. When RPL/2 is called from librpl, this
681: variable indicates RPL/2 root directory. If it is not set, root path
682: is given by configure script (d_exec_path);
1.11 bertrand 683: * Thu Mar 03 2010 BERTRAND Joël <rpl@systella.fr> rpl-4.0.11 (RPL/2)
684: - configure.in and makefile.am's are modified to add Cygwin support. Interix

687: - TeX files are now written in UTF-8 even default locale differs;
688: - minor bug is fixed in ->STR (escaped characters);
1.9 bertrand 689: - minor bug is fixed in ->Q intrinsic. Resultat is returned as integer
690: fraction intead real one;
691: - SIGN now returns (0,0) instead (nan,nan) when complex argument is null;
1.8 bertrand 692: - Makefile.am are modified to authorize parallel builds;
1.7 bertrand 693: - minor bug is fixed in CR intrinsic. CR sends a carriage return to printer
694: and writes warning to standard output;

1.5 bertrand 696: - escape codes are now converted in formateur(), not in recherche_type() to
697: avoid a minor bug in EDIT and VISIT intrinsics;
1.4 bertrand 698: - minor bug is fixed in formateur_reel();
1.7 bertrand 699: - file-5.03 is patched to avoid bus error on systems that require memory
1.3 bertrand 700: alignment;
1.2 bertrand 701: - minor bug is fixed in evaluation(). Error returned by RPL/C external functions
702: were able to be avoided by evaluation routine.

708: Number of scalar operations per second and per core : 2383016
709:
710: - PULPRFL does not abort on BUG() but on execution error;
711: - TRIM, REPL and TOKENIZE are added;
712: - sockets options are now set before bind();
713: - shutdown() is added to all connected sockets;
714: - minor bug is fixed in SUB intrinsic (segfault when SUB is called with
715: list argument and inexistant elements).
716: * Fri Jan 08 2010 BERTRAND Joël <rpl@systella.fr> rpl-4.0.8 (RPL/2)
717: - minor bug is fixed in DAEMON intrinsic. When a program was daemonized, all
718: signals sent to main process were not caught because DAEMON did not replace
719: old pid by new one;
720: - major bug is fixed in IFERR/THEN/ELSE/END. Only occurs in expression
721: evaluation when an error is reported from a subroutine in another subroutine.
722: For example, error was not caught in following program when it is executed with
723: -p option :
724: TEST << iferr TEST2 then end >>
725: TEST2 << 0 inv >>
726: - major bug is fixed in variable management. Some local variables were
727: seen as global ones;
728: - major bug is fixed in rplcore. Rplcore entered in dead lock when
729: script file contains a multibyte character;
730: - IN intrinsic is added;
731: - major bug is fixed in SAME intrinsic : << 1 >> DUP SAME and 'E' DUP SAME
732: returned false ;
733: - major bug is fixed in RETURN intrinsic. It only occurs in compiled
734: programs;
735: - major bug is fixed in NEG intrinsic. NEG did not make a copy of its arguments;
736: - regression is fixed in compilation(). "\\" was analysed as '"' '\' '\"' and
737: strings were never closed;
738: - some bugs have been fixed in file management;
739: - RPL/2 can now be run on EBCDIC systems (OS/390);
740: - major bug is fixed in -A command line option (NULL character is missing);
741: - minor bug is fixed in rpliconv and RECODE intrinsic. All transliterations are
742: made by blocks (1024 bytes). When an incomplete multibyte sequence is
743: encountered at end of block, subroutine aborts with an execution error;
744: - major bug is fixed in OPEN (TCP/IPv4 sockets).
745: * Mon Nov 30 2009 BERTRAND Joël <rpl@systella.fr> rpl-4.0.7 (RPL/2)
746: - DISP now locks stdout;
747: - rpliconv is added to replace standard iconv provided by operating system.
748: Indeed, conversion between different encodages requires transliteration
749: that is not offered by some iconv utility;
750: - CURRENC and RECODE intrinsics have been written to allow strings conversions;
751: - bug is fixed in SYSEVAL. When execvp() returns (for example when arg[0] can
752: not be found), SYSEVAL enters in a dead lock;
753: - fprintf is replaced by some functions that allow transliterations between
754: locales;
755: - '"' can now be used in strings ("\"");
756: - iconv is called with -c in preprocessor stage. It is done to write
757: CGI scripts with RPL/2 because locale charset is set to ANSI_X3.4-1968;
758: - double free is fixed in liberation() (type SQL, only occurs when locale is
759: set);
760: - LOCALIZATION, UCASE and LCASE are added;
761: - major bug is fixed in EXIT intrinsic that was able to return a false
762: execution error in compiled scripts (only in DO/UNTIL and REPEAT/WHILE loops);
763: - major bug is fixed in wrapper_instruction_intrinseque(). When intrinsic() was
764: used in onLoading from shared library, USE was pushed on stack as algebraic
765: expression;
766: - libiconv is upgraded to 1.13.1;
767: - gnuplot is upgraded to 4.2.6;
768: - gsl is upgraded to 1.13.
769: * Mon Sep 28 2009 BERTRAND Joël <rpl@systella.fr> rpl-4.0.6 (RPL/2)
770: - pipe() is overwritten by a macro to avoid a system error. Communication
771: between process are done with pipes and these pipes are managed by a
772: specific asynchrone thread. If a script try to create more threads than
773: management thread can destroy, you can quickly achieve maximum number of
774: opened files and pipe() shall return a system error. This macro tries to create
775: pipes. If pipe() function returns an error, macro waits and retries. If
776: number of retries is greater than a hardcoded value, macro returns an error;
777: - major bug (deadlock) is fixed in process and thread management. I hope
778: this bug shall be the last one;
779: - major bug is fixed in DET intrinsic (determinant was computed without LU
780: diagonalization);
781: - SWAPCNTXT is added;
782: - minor bug is fixed in Makefile.am (licences rule).
783: * Wed Sep 09 2009 BERTRAND Joël <rpl@systella.fr> rpl-4.0.5 (RPL/2)
784: - some bugfixes are added in process management;
785: - all process management is rewritten to avoid usage of defunct process
786: or thread number;
787: - new major bug is fixed in interruptions.c. Sometimes, when retrait_thread()
788: was called before a pending interruption5 (SIGFSTOP), signal handler uses
789: a freed semaphore and corrupts heap;
790: - CLRERR is added to erase previous errors;
791: - ERRN and ERRM return exception message and number;
792: - major bug is fixed in interruptions.c. All signal are now bufferised
793: when semaphore_liste_threads is null to avoid deadlock. This bug only
794: occured when STOP was sent to a dying thread or process (when this thread or
795: process was running retrait_thread());
796: - matrix rank is computed before matrix inversion;
797: - file locks are added to stdin and stdout. stderr is not locked because
798: all messages written by signal handlers are sent to stderr;
799: - configure.in script is modified to test gcc version and avoid a bug in
800: gcc older than 4.4;
801: - some benchmarks have been done :

857: - branches prediction is added in THEN, ELSE, ELSEIF and REPEAT intrinsics;
858: - FORTRAN 77 file management subroutines are rewritten in pure C due to
859: FORTRAN string management. C/FORTRAN 77 string interfaces are broken
860: in some cases (gcc/gfortran/libc/OS and arch conjonction);
861: - a memory leak is fixed in REMOVE intrinsic;
862: - major bug is fixed in MySQL driver (segfault due to a bug in mysql_init()

873: SIGFSTP (with a nullified siginfo structure) instead of SIGHUP when control
874: process is killed;
875: - abs() macro is modified to avoid multiple evaluation. Your C compiler has to
876: know typeof() intrinsic function. This function is not standard but exists
877: under Sun Studio, gcc, and maybe some others compilers. If this function does
878: not exist on your compiler, you can change its definition by old one in

902: deadlock when a huge amount of threads is launched);
903: - minor bug is fixed in boath START and FOR intrinsic. Only occurs when
904: arguments types are unsupported;
905: - PLOT instrinsic is added (usage: LINE and MARK do not draw anything. All

920: static variable that is shared by multiple threads;
921: - '->' intrinsic is improved. All object copies have been avoided;
922: - -n flag is added to catch HUP signal. stderr and stdout are redirected
923: to a file, stdin is redirected to /dev/null when control process is killed;
924: - a mutex is added to each object (before this modification,
925: RPL/2 used a global mutex and performances in multithreaded programs were very
926: poor.);

940: in three new intrinsics : SQLCONNECT, SQLQUERY and SQLDISCONNECT. Please note
941: that all programs that worked with old SQL intrinsic can now work with
942: SQLQUERY. With all new programs, you can open a real connection to databases;
943: - NRPROC is added. This new intrinsic is used to catch error from child
944: process. Without NRPROC, any errors returned by child process cause
945: main process to abort;
946: - SPAWN is added. This new intrinsic is used to launch a new thread (DETACH
947: starts a new process). There are no mutexes in RPL/2 because all spawned process
948: use specific context. Nevertheless, shared variables and associated mutexes
949: should be added;

1035: - FUSE, RFUSE and CLRFUSE have been added;
1036: - new bug discovered on NetBSD. sigpending() does not return any signal, thus
1037: DETACH intrinsic enters in a definitive dead lock. I have no idea to write a
1038: workaround for this major bug. Nevertheless, all others capabilities seems to
1039: work fine;
1040: - '->' is modified to return error when program tries to initialiaze two

1093: without this option !
1094: - new garbage collector (and more efficient) is written;
1095: - configure script is modified to be usable on NetBSD 4.0, but as NetBSD does
1096: not support real time signals, RPL/2 cannot use multitasking functions;
1097: - error returned by preprocessor are now catched by RPL/2;
1098: - -p option is added. With this option, all scripts are compiled before
1099: RPL/2 starts evaluation. HALT cannot be used with -p, but all programs run
1100: 40% faster;
1101: - read and write operations in pipe() are rewritten to be sure that such
1102: operations are atomic;
1103: - minor bug is fixed in LOGSCALE. With {} LOGSCALE, all scales have to be

1297: With STATIC, next variables created by '->' are static;
1298: - PROTECT and UNPROTECT are added to protect variables against write
1299: or purge actions. New PARAMETER and VARIABLE intrinsics are modified
1300: versions of PROTECT and UNPROTECT that only deal with global variables
1301: (see RCL/SAVE);
1302: - variable management routines have been rewritten. The new ones are
1303: uncompatible with the old ones. Before these changes, a local variable
1304: was exported to a child subroutine, but cannot be modified into this
1305: child subroutine. Now, a local variable is accessible only in its subroutine;
1306: - SAVE intrinsic is added to manipulate global variables;

1628: - NOT is not correctly formatted in formateur.c:
1629: Z NOT -> 'NOT Z' but 'A+Z' NOT -> 'NOT A+Z' and 'NOT Z+A' -> 'NOTZ+A'
1630: with a NOTZ function !
1631: * Sun Aug 10 2003 BERTRAND Joël <rpl2@systella.fr> rpl-4.00pre7c (RPL/2)

1634: - RPL/2 is tested with efence and valgrind;
1635: - configure.in script is modified;
1636: - units.c is modified to be built by gcc-3.3. I only have removed a #if 0/#endif

1717: - DRWS now uses COLS to draw 2D graphics;
1718: - PPAR and SPAR are written. SPAR returns a list that contains the
1719: size of the statistical matrix (or "UNAVALAIBLE" if there is any
1720: statistical variable, or "DISABLED" if its type is not one of the type of
1721: a statistical matrix.) and XCOL and YCOL parameters. Warning: [[]] SIZE
1722: returns { 1 0 } and it is not a bug, because a null matrix contains _one_
1723: null line ! Thus, [[]] STOS SPAR returns { { 1 0 } 1 2 };
1724: - EXTERNAL intrinsic is added. Warning: by default, extern functions are
1725: disabled. Arguments of EXTERNAL are case sensitive because the external
1726: interface is written in C. { ext_sinus } EXTERNAL does not replace the list
1727: of known external functions but add the new list to the last. { "all" }
1728: EXTERNAL allows all external functions and { "none" } EXTERNAL removes all
1729: external names of the known functions;
1730: - mkrplso.in is modified.
1731: * Sun Apr 20 2003 BERTRAND Joël <rpl2@systella.fr> rpl-4.00pre6h (RPL/2)
1732: - vim syntax file is upgraded;
1733: - a minor mistake is fixed in recherche_instruction_suivante();

1744: - a very minor bug is fixed in VISIT intrinsic. It only occurs when
1745: VISIT does not find a name in level 1;
1746: - configure.in script is modified to add a new test (--enable-debug
1747: flag). Configured with this fleg, RPL/2 will be built with electric-fences;
1748: - GETR (get row[s]) and GETC (get column[s]) are added. These new instructions
1749: extract a part of a matrix. Syntax: [[ 1 2 3 ][ 2 3 4 ]] { 1 } GETR or
1750: 'MATRIX' { 2 2 3 } GETR;
1751: - LOGSCALE intrinsic is improved and now, it can be used as
1752: { "main" "auxiliary" X Y } LOGSCALE;
1753: - SCALE intrinsic is used to fix the limits of a graphic. Its syntax is the
1754: same than AXES:
1755: { { 60 "ticsonly" 2 } { "automatic" "ticsonly" 10 } } axes
1756: { "auxiliary" { 60 "ticsonly" "default" } { "automatic" } } axes
1757: { { -10 10 } "automatic" } SCALE.
1758: Warning, it is not possible to ask a logarithmic scale with this intrinsic
1759: because it changes only the dimension of the screen. To have a logarithmic
1760: scale, you must use LOGSCALE intrinsic:
1761: { X } LOGSCALE gives a semi-log screen, { "auxiliary" X Y } gives a log-log
1762: screen on second scale;
1763: - { X X } autoscale and { Y Y } logscale are now invalid;
1764: - *D is added (depth multiplication, for 3D graphics);
1765: - a new intrinsic (*S) is added. It changes the scale of a graphic (X, Y
1766: and Z axes). The result of *S is the same than DUP DUP *H *W *D;
1767: - a major bug is fixed in GETI instrinsic when it is used with a name
1768: that contains a matrix or a vector (bad upper bounds conditions in
