485: - by default, RPL/2 uses "NONE" IMPLICIT when it's started in batch mode and
486: "ALL" IMPLICIT when it runs in interactive mode;
487: - when "NONE" IMPLICIT is set, STO intrinsic raises an error when it is used
488: to create or modify a global variable. Now, with "NONE" IMPLICIT, you have
489: to use SAVE to manipulate global variables;
490: - replace erroneous TAB by TBL in evaluation() and formateur_fichier()
491: subroutines;
492: - fix major memory access violation in evaluation subroutine. Only occurs
493: when 'X(i,j)' is evaluated on a matrix and when (i,j) points out of bounds;
494: - fix major bug in evaluation subroutine. 'X(i)' returns execution error
495: when X was a vector or a table.

526: - due to a very strange bug I've only seen on Solaris, ptmalloc3 is removed.
527: Solaris libresolv randomly uses ptmalloc3 and system allocator and makes heap
528: corruption. As internal memory management have been improved, a best fit
529: allocator like ptmalloc3 is not required anymore;
1.50 bertrand 530: - gnuplot is upgraded to 4.4.1;
531: - deadlock is fixed in signal handlers: same mutex was used in standard
532: subroutines (without protected sections by sigprocmask() or pthread_sigmask())

1.35 bertrand 579: - major bug is fixed in global variable creation subroutine. When a global
580: variable was created and when a local variable existed with the same name,
581: computed address of global variable was wrong;

588: caught;
589: - major bug is fixed in analyse() subroutine. When evaluation() returned error
590: in a compiled program, analyse() caught this error twice and randomly aborted
591: with a segmentation error;
592: - TRIM and TOKENIZE replace both '\n' and '\t' by regular spaces;

619: and to not use swap;
1.26 bertrand 620: - major bug is fixed in sql support. SQL connections were closed in all chield
621: process;
622: - standard allocator (malloc()/free()) is replaced by ptmalloc3 due to some bugs
623: discovered in Solaris thread safe allocators (libmalloc and libumem) that

642: information about shared variable was not copied to new processus structure;
1.19 bertrand 643: - some little memory leaks are fixed in evaluation(), recherche_type() and
644: sequenceur(). They only occured when syntax error were caught;
645: - IMPLICIT causes execution error instead system error;

1.13 bertrand 689: * Tue Mar 09 2010 BERTRAND Joël <rpl@systella.fr> rpl-4.0.12 (RPL/2)
690: - in formatted file, string format returned a variable length string even if
691: format was 'CHARACTER*(n)' (n characters string). Now, 'CHARACTER*(*)' returns
1.15 bertrand 692: a variable length string and 'CHARACTER*(n)' a fixed length string;
1.13 bertrand 693: - keyed access files support is added. Currently, only formatted files are
694: supported;

704: on a non recoverable system error;
705: - openssl and sqlite3 libraries are added;
706: - RPL_HOME env variable is added. When RPL/2 is called from librpl, this
707: variable indicates RPL/2 root directory. If it is not set, root path
708: is given by configure script (d_exec_path);
1.11 bertrand 709: * Thu Mar 03 2010 BERTRAND Joël <rpl@systella.fr> rpl-4.0.11 (RPL/2)

742: * Fri Jan 08 2010 BERTRAND Joël <rpl@systella.fr> rpl-4.0.8 (RPL/2)
743: - minor bug is fixed in DAEMON intrinsic. When a program was daemonized, all
744: signals sent to main process were not caught because DAEMON did not replace
745: old pid by new one;
746: - major bug is fixed in IFERR/THEN/ELSE/END. Only occurs in expression
747: evaluation when an error is reported from a subroutine in another subroutine.
748: For example, error was not caught in following program when it is executed with
749: -p option :
750: TEST << iferr TEST2 then end >>
751: TEST2 << 0 inv >>
752: - major bug is fixed in variable management. Some local variables were
753: seen as global ones;

755: script file contains a multibyte character;
756: - IN intrinsic is added;
757: - major bug is fixed in SAME intrinsic : << 1 >> DUP SAME and 'E' DUP SAME
758: returned false ;
759: - major bug is fixed in RETURN intrinsic. It only occurs in compiled
760: programs;
761: - major bug is fixed in NEG intrinsic. NEG did not make a copy of its arguments;
762: - regression is fixed in compilation(). "\\" was analysed as '"' '\' '\"' and

770: - major bug is fixed in OPEN (TCP/IPv4 sockets).
771: * Mon Nov 30 2009 BERTRAND Joël <rpl@systella.fr> rpl-4.0.7 (RPL/2)
772: - DISP now locks stdout;
773: - rpliconv is added to replace standard iconv provided by operating system.
774: Indeed, conversion between different encodages requires transliteration
775: that is not offered by some iconv utility;
776: - CURRENC and RECODE intrinsics have been written to allow strings conversions;
777: - bug is fixed in SYSEVAL. When execvp() returns (for example when arg[0] can
778: not be found), SYSEVAL enters in a dead lock;
779: - fprintf is replaced by some functions that allow transliterations between
780: locales;
781: - '"' can now be used in strings ("\"");
782: - iconv is called with -c in preprocessor stage. It is done to write
783: CGI scripts with RPL/2 because locale charset is set to ANSI_X3.4-1968;
784: - double free is fixed in liberation() (type SQL, only occurs when locale is
785: set);
786: - LOCALIZATION, UCASE and LCASE are added;
787: - major bug is fixed in EXIT intrinsic that was able to return a false
788: execution error in compiled scripts (only in DO/UNTIL and REPEAT/WHILE loops);

796: - pipe() is overwritten by a macro to avoid a system error. Communication
797: between process are done with pipes and these pipes are managed by a
798: specific asynchrone thread. If a script try to create more threads than
799: management thread can destroy, you can quickly achieve maximum number of
800: opened files and pipe() shall return a system error. This macro tries to create
801: pipes. If pipe() function returns an error, macro waits and retries. If
802: number of retries is greater than a hardcoded value, macro returns an error;
803: - major bug (deadlock) is fixed in process and thread management. I hope
804: this bug shall be the last one;
805: - major bug is fixed in DET intrinsic (determinant was computed without LU
806: diagonalization);

810: - some bugfixes are added in process management;
811: - all process management is rewritten to avoid usage of defunct process
812: or thread number;
813: - new major bug is fixed in interruptions.c. Sometimes, when retrait_thread()
814: was called before a pending interruption5 (SIGFSTOP), signal handler uses
815: a freed semaphore and corrupts heap;
816: - CLRERR is added to erase previous errors;
817: - ERRN and ERRM return exception message and number;
818: - major bug is fixed in interruptions.c. All signal are now bufferised
819: when semaphore_liste_threads is null to avoid deadlock. This bug only
820: occured when STOP was sent to a dying thread or process (when this thread or
821: process was running retrait_thread());
822: - matrix rank is computed before matrix inversion;
823: - file locks are added to stdin and stdout. stderr is not locked because
824: all messages written by signal handlers are sent to stderr;
825: - configure.in script is modified to test gcc version and avoid a bug in
826: gcc older than 4.4;

946: static variable that is shared by multiple threads;
947: - '->' intrinsic is improved. All object copies have been avoided;
948: - -n flag is added to catch HUP signal. stderr and stdout are redirected
949: to a file, stdin is redirected to /dev/null when control process is killed;

967: that all programs that worked with old SQL intrinsic can now work with
968: SQLQUERY. With all new programs, you can open a real connection to databases;
969: - NRPROC is added. This new intrinsic is used to catch error from child
970: process. Without NRPROC, any errors returned by child process cause
971: main process to abort;
972: - SPAWN is added. This new intrinsic is used to launch a new thread (DETACH
973: starts a new process). There are no mutexes in RPL/2 because all spawned process
974: use specific context. Nevertheless, shared variables and associated mutexes

1122: not support real time signals, RPL/2 cannot use multitasking functions;
1123: - error returned by preprocessor are now catched by RPL/2;
1124: - -p option is added. With this option, all scripts are compiled before
1125: RPL/2 starts evaluation. HALT cannot be used with -p, but all programs run
1126: 40% faster;
1127: - read and write operations in pipe() are rewritten to be sure that such
1128: operations are atomic;

1323: With STATIC, next variables created by '->' are static;
1324: - PROTECT and UNPROTECT are added to protect variables against write
1325: or purge actions. New PARAMETER and VARIABLE intrinsics are modified
1326: versions of PROTECT and UNPROTECT that only deal with global variables
1327: (see RCL/SAVE);
1328: - variable management routines have been rewritten. The new ones are
1329: uncompatible with the old ones. Before these changes, a local variable
1330: was exported to a child subroutine, but cannot be modified into this
1331: child subroutine. Now, a local variable is accessible only in its subroutine;
1332: - SAVE intrinsic is added to manipulate global variables;

1769: * Sun Apr 13 2003 BERTRAND Joël <rpl2@systella.fr> rpl-4.00pre6g (RPL/2)
1770: - a very minor bug is fixed in VISIT intrinsic. It only occurs when
1771: VISIT does not find a name in level 1;
1772: - configure.in script is modified to add a new test (--enable-debug
1773: flag). Configured with this fleg, RPL/2 will be built with electric-fences;
1774: - GETR (get row[s]) and GETC (get column[s]) are added. These new instructions
1775: extract a part of a matrix. Syntax: [[ 1 2 3 ][ 2 3 4 ]] { 1 } GETR or
1776: 'MATRIX' { 2 2 3 } GETR;
1777: - LOGSCALE intrinsic is improved and now, it can be used as
1778: { "main" "auxiliary" X Y } LOGSCALE;
1779: - SCALE intrinsic is used to fix the limits of a graphic. Its syntax is the
1780: same than AXES:
1781: { { 60 "ticsonly" 2 } { "automatic" "ticsonly" 10 } } axes
1782: { "auxiliary" { 60 "ticsonly" "default" } { "automatic" } } axes
1783: { { -10 10 } "automatic" } SCALE.
1784: Warning, it is not possible to ask a logarithmic scale with this intrinsic
1785: because it changes only the dimension of the screen. To have a logarithmic
1786: scale, you must use LOGSCALE intrinsic:
1787: { X } LOGSCALE gives a semi-log screen, { "auxiliary" X Y } gives a log-log
1788: screen on second scale;
1789: - { X X } autoscale and { Y Y } logscale are now invalid;
1790: - *D is added (depth multiplication, for 3D graphics);
1791: - a new intrinsic (*S) is added. It changes the scale of a graphic (X, Y
1792: and Z axes). The result of *S is the same than DUP DUP *H *W *D;
1793: - a major bug is fixed in GETI instrinsic when it is used with a name
1794: that contains a matrix or a vector (bad upper bounds conditions in
1795: incrementation);
1796: - DISP intrinsic now uses the 33-th flag. When it is not set
1797: (default), a final carriage return is sent to the terminal;
1798: - AXES intrinsic only takes a list that can contains the keywork
1799: "main" or "auxiliary". Before this modification, this keyword was in
1800: the first stack level;
1801: - vim syntax file is upgraded;
1802: - in appel_gnuplot(), stdin is closed when gnuplot is called with -raise
1803: option;
1804: - LAST is now disabled in the main loop of INT intrinsic;
1805: - expm1 and lnp1 are rewritten to use expm1 and log1p from math.h.
1806: * Sun Apr 6 2003 BERTRAND Joël <rpl2@systella.fr> rpl-4.00pre6f (RPL/2)
1807: - a major bug is fixed in evaluation() subroutine. It occurs with DRAW
1808: intrinsic when the equation cannot be evaluated (for example 'SIN(X)/X'
1809: in 0);
1810: - LAST is disabled in the main loop of DRAW intrinsic;
1811: - a major bug is fixed in DRAW intrinsic. When an error occurs in the
1812: evaluation of an equation, the system stack is returned corrupted to the
1813: sequencer;
1814: - the same minor bug is fixed in FOR and START. It only occurs when the limits
1815: of a loop are not integer or real.
1816: * Sun Mar 31 2003 BERTRAND Joël <rpl2@systella.fr> rpl-4.00pre6e (RPL/2)
1817: - the compilation stage aborts with an error message when two definitions
1818: have the same name. To improve the compilation() subroutine, I have to
1819: add some tests in gestion_variables.c;
1820: - recherche_type() subroutine ad some other connex subroutines are improved.
1821: Now, some syntax errors about object are caught and do not perform sequencer
1822: hangup;
1823: - readline is upgraded (minor compilation bug with recent gcc);
1824: - Makefile.am's and configure.in scripts are improved.
1825: * Fri Mar 14 2003 BERTRAND Joël <rpl2@systella.fr> rpl-4.00pre6d (RPL/2)
1826: - DRWS intrinsic is written. Two datastyles are associated: SCATTER (2D
1827: and 3D) and HISTOGRAM (only 2D, but 3 columns are accepted, the third shown
1828: the boxwidth, 1 by default);
1829: - recherche_type() is rewritten to be faster;
1830: - gsl is upgraded (release 1.3);
1831: - ncurses is upgraded and patched (release 5.3);
1832: - recherche_instruction_suivante() is fixed (string research with included
1833: '"') and rewritten to be faster;
1834: - appel_gnuplot() is fixed. When no graphic was available, it returned a
1835: segfault.
1836: * Sun Mar 9 2003 BERTRAND Joël <rpl2@systella.fr> rpl-4.00pre6c (RPL/2)

1844: - a minor bug is fixed in evaluation subroutine;
1845: - vim syntax file is improved;
1846: - DRAW (wireframe section) is fixed. When an error occurs in the evaluation
1847: of a 3D-graphic (for example 'SIN(R)/R' with 'R=SQRT(X**2+Y**2)' in X=0 and
1848: Y=0), no graph was procuced (it results from a bug in gnuplot, and this fix
1849: is a quick and dirty workaround...);
1850: - RETURN intrinsic is modified to fix a trouble in interactive mode;
1851: - rplconvert is improved.
1852: * Sun Dec 22 2002 BERTRAND Joël <rpl2@systella.fr> rpl-4.00pre6a (RPL/2)

1962: sparc v8 and sparc v9. Compilation of RPL/2 on my Sun Sparc 2 (sun4c,
1963: CPU 4/75, 64 MB, 40 MHz with FPU) is a very great mission :
1964:
1965: Newton:[~/rpl/rpl] > time make install
