207: by a new feature in glibc.
208: * Thu Apr 14 2011 BERTRAND Joël <rpl@systella.fr> rpl-4.0.22 (RPL/2)
209: - by default, RPL/2 uses "NONE" IMPLICIT when it's started in batch mode and
210: "ALL" IMPLICIT when it runs in interactive mode;
211: - when "NONE" IMPLICIT is set, STO intrinsic raises an error when it is used
212: to create or modify a global variable. Now, with "NONE" IMPLICIT, you have
213: to use SAVE to manipulate global variables;
214: - replace erroneous TAB by TBL in evaluation() and formateur_fichier()
215: subroutines;
216: - fix major memory access violation in evaluation subroutine. Only occurs
217: when 'X(i,j)' is evaluated on a matrix and when (i,j) points out of bounds;
218: - fix major bug in evaluation subroutine. 'X(i)' returns execution error
219: when X was a vector or a table.

250: - due to a very strange bug I've only seen on Solaris, ptmalloc3 is removed.
251: Solaris libresolv randomly uses ptmalloc3 and system allocator and makes heap
252: corruption. As internal memory management have been improved, a best fit
253: allocator like ptmalloc3 is not required anymore;
254: - gnuplot is upgraded to 4.4.1;
255: - deadlock is fixed in signal handlers: same mutex was used in standard
256: subroutines (without protected sections by sigprocmask() or pthread_sigmask())
257: and signal handlers. A new signal handler specific mutex is added;
258: - minor bug is fixed in evaluation() subroutine. In { X 0 PI }, PI is a function
259: that has to be evaluated by ->NUM;
260: - rplfile build process is modify to be sure that rplfile is not modified
261: after rpl build stage (to be sure that rplfile checksum is not modified after

269: parent process was not interrupted if it is not group master process. To fix
270: this bug, SIGINJECT signal is not sent by child process but by control thread
271: in parent process;
272: - minor bug is fixed in data injection (POKE) that does not work as expected
273: when child process is protected by NRPROC.
274: * Thu Aug 26 2010 BERTRAND Joël <rpl@systella.fr> rpl-4.0.18 (RPL/2)
275: - --enable-sysv-sems is added to configure script to use SystemV semaphores
276: functions instead of POSIX functions. This function is disabled or forced on
277: systems that does not provide correct POSIX or SysV semaphores subsystem;
278: - a dirty but not quick patch is written to workaround broken siginfo
279: structures. This patch has been successfully tested. It uses a segment of
280: shared memory (Posix or SysV) and some semaphores (Posix or SysV) by process
281: (Unix PID);
282: - some OpenBSD's hacks are added;
283: - broken siginfo->si_pid field is now checked by configure script;

301: Level 0 and 1 variables adresses were swapped when a global variable masked
302: a name of RPL/2 routine;
303: - major bug is fixed in global variable creation subroutine. When a global
304: variable was created and when a local variable existed with the same name,
305: computed address of global variable was wrong;
306: - src/Makefile.am is modified to avoid a bug on several systems. libptmalloc3
307: is forced in front of all libraries.

310: - major bug is fixed in SELECT/DEFAULT/END conditional structure. Only occurs
311: when this structure is included in IFERR/THEN/END structure and when an error is
312: caught;
313: - major bug is fixed in analyse() subroutine. When evaluation() returned error
314: in a compiled program, analyse() caught this error twice and randomly aborted
315: with a segmentation error;
316: - TRIM and TOKENIZE replace both '\n' and '\t' by regular spaces;
317: - ATEXIT subroutine begins with an implicit CSTOP to avoid multiple stop
318: signals;
319: - memory leak is fixed in ROW+. It only occurs when a row is added to an empty
320: matrix.

339: format in FCH (file descriptor) and SCK (socket descriptor);
340: - debug routines are improved;
341: - PROCID is added;
342: - MEMLOCK and MEMUNLOCK are added. MEMLOCK forces a process to remain in memory
343: and to not use swap;
344: - major bug is fixed in sql support. SQL connections were closed in all chield
345: process;
346: - standard allocator (malloc()/free()) is replaced by ptmalloc3 due to some bugs
347: discovered in Solaris thread safe allocators (libmalloc and libumem) that
348: are first fit class allocators. Solaris libmtmalloc works better and is
349: a best fit class allocator but its performance is poor than ptmalloc3
350: performance;
351: - major bug is fixed in ROW+ intrinsic (new row was not added where it
352: should);
353: - minor bugs are fixed in interruptions.c (semaphores values when error is
354: caught);
355: - major bug is fixed in STOP intrinsic. STOP was unable to stop any process
356: created by SPAWN;

366: information about shared variable was not copied to new processus structure;
367: - some little memory leaks are fixed in evaluation(), recherche_type() and
368: sequenceur(). They only occured when syntax error were caught;
369: - IMPLICIT causes execution error instead system error;
370: - Hurd support is improved but currently broken because Hurd does not support
371: SIG_INFO. Work in progress;
372: - OpenBSD specific support is removed from sources;
373: - support for Mac OS X and Windows/Cygwin is added.

401: RPL/2 aborts because the last Z is undefined and not protected by ''.
402: By default, implicit is set to "ALL";
403: - sqlite is upgraded to 3.6.23.1;
404: - openssl is upgraded to 1.0.0;
405: - major bug is fixed in RETURN intrinsic. It only occurs in evaluation
406: subroutine;
407: - table variable can now be sorted by SORT;
408: - some regressions between libtool 1.x and 2.x are fixed by workarouds in
409: Makefiles;

411: sends preprocessor output to standard output. This option is used by
412: rplc (RPL/2 compiler).
413: * Tue Mar 09 2010 BERTRAND Joël <rpl@systella.fr> rpl-4.0.12 (RPL/2)
414: - in formatted file, string format returned a variable length string even if
415: format was 'CHARACTER*(n)' (n characters string). Now, 'CHARACTER*(*)' returns
416: a variable length string and 'CHARACTER*(n)' a fixed length string;
417: - keyed access files support is added. Currently, only formatted files are
418: supported;
419: - direct access files support is added. Currenlty, these files can only be used
420: in formatted mode;
421: - virtual variables are now writte in UTF-8 and all special characters
422: in string are escaped;
423: - all formatted files are now converted into UTF-8;
424: - all file and unix socket names created by RPL/2 are now UTF-8 compliant;
425: - RPL/2 tools (rpliconv, rplfile, rplpp and rplconvert) are now checked before
426: each execution (md5 and sha1 sums) to enhance security. If one of these tools
427: have been modified between RPL/2 compilation and current execution, RPL/2 aborts
428: on a non recoverable system error;
429: - openssl and sqlite3 libraries are added;
430: - RPL_HOME env variable is added. When RPL/2 is called from librpl, this
431: variable indicates RPL/2 root directory. If it is not set, root path
432: is given by configure script (d_exec_path);
433: * Thu Mar 03 2010 BERTRAND Joël <rpl@systella.fr> rpl-4.0.11 (RPL/2)
434: - configure.in and makefile.am's are modified to add Cygwin support. Interix

440: fraction intead real one;
441: - SIGN now returns (0,0) instead (nan,nan) when complex argument is null;
442: - Makefile.am are modified to authorize parallel builds;
443: - minor bug is fixed in CR intrinsic. CR sends a carriage return to printer
444: and writes warning to standard output;
445: * Wed Feb 10 2010 BERTRAND Joël <rpl@systella.fr> rpl-4.0.10 (RPL/2)

449: - file-5.03 is patched to avoid bus error on systems that require memory
450: alignment;
451: - minor bug is fixed in evaluation(). Error returned by RPL/C external functions
452: were able to be avoided by evaluation routine.

462: - sockets options are now set before bind();
463: - shutdown() is added to all connected sockets;
464: - minor bug is fixed in SUB intrinsic (segfault when SUB is called with
465: list argument and inexistant elements).
466: * Fri Jan 08 2010 BERTRAND Joël <rpl@systella.fr> rpl-4.0.8 (RPL/2)
467: - minor bug is fixed in DAEMON intrinsic. When a program was daemonized, all
468: signals sent to main process were not caught because DAEMON did not replace
469: old pid by new one;
470: - major bug is fixed in IFERR/THEN/ELSE/END. Only occurs in expression
471: evaluation when an error is reported from a subroutine in another subroutine.
472: For example, error was not caught in following program when it is executed with
473: -p option :
474: TEST << iferr TEST2 then end >>
475: TEST2 << 0 inv >>
476: - major bug is fixed in variable management. Some local variables were
477: seen as global ones;
478: - major bug is fixed in rplcore. Rplcore entered in dead lock when
479: script file contains a multibyte character;
480: - IN intrinsic is added;
481: - major bug is fixed in SAME intrinsic : << 1 >> DUP SAME and 'E' DUP SAME
482: returned false ;
483: - major bug is fixed in RETURN intrinsic. It only occurs in compiled
484: programs;
485: - major bug is fixed in NEG intrinsic. NEG did not make a copy of its arguments;
486: - regression is fixed in compilation(). "\\" was analysed as '"' '\' '\"' and
487: strings were never closed;
488: - some bugs have been fixed in file management;

490: - major bug is fixed in -A command line option (NULL character is missing);
491: - minor bug is fixed in rpliconv and RECODE intrinsic. All transliterations are
492: made by blocks (1024 bytes). When an incomplete multibyte sequence is
493: encountered at end of block, subroutine aborts with an execution error;
494: - major bug is fixed in OPEN (TCP/IPv4 sockets).
495: * Mon Nov 30 2009 BERTRAND Joël <rpl@systella.fr> rpl-4.0.7 (RPL/2)
496: - DISP now locks stdout;
497: - rpliconv is added to replace standard iconv provided by operating system.
498: Indeed, conversion between different encodages requires transliteration
499: that is not offered by some iconv utility;
500: - CURRENC and RECODE intrinsics have been written to allow strings conversions;
501: - bug is fixed in SYSEVAL. When execvp() returns (for example when arg[0] can
502: not be found), SYSEVAL enters in a dead lock;
503: - fprintf is replaced by some functions that allow transliterations between
504: locales;
505: - '"' can now be used in strings ("\"");
506: - iconv is called with -c in preprocessor stage. It is done to write
507: CGI scripts with RPL/2 because locale charset is set to ANSI_X3.4-1968;
508: - double free is fixed in liberation() (type SQL, only occurs when locale is
509: set);
510: - LOCALIZATION, UCASE and LCASE are added;
511: - major bug is fixed in EXIT intrinsic that was able to return a false
512: execution error in compiled scripts (only in DO/UNTIL and REPEAT/WHILE loops);
513: - major bug is fixed in wrapper_instruction_intrinseque(). When intrinsic() was
514: used in onLoading from shared library, USE was pushed on stack as algebraic
515: expression;
516: - libiconv is upgraded to 1.13.1;
517: - gnuplot is upgraded to 4.2.6;
518: - gsl is upgraded to 1.13.
519: * Mon Sep 28 2009 BERTRAND Joël <rpl@systella.fr> rpl-4.0.6 (RPL/2)
520: - pipe() is overwritten by a macro to avoid a system error. Communication
521: between process are done with pipes and these pipes are managed by a
522: specific asynchrone thread. If a script try to create more threads than
523: management thread can destroy, you can quickly achieve maximum number of
524: opened files and pipe() shall return a system error. This macro tries to create
525: pipes. If pipe() function returns an error, macro waits and retries. If
526: number of retries is greater than a hardcoded value, macro returns an error;
527: - major bug (deadlock) is fixed in process and thread management. I hope
528: this bug shall be the last one;
529: - major bug is fixed in DET intrinsic (determinant was computed without LU
530: diagonalization);
531: - SWAPCNTXT is added;
532: - minor bug is fixed in Makefile.am (licences rule).
533: * Wed Sep 09 2009 BERTRAND Joël <rpl@systella.fr> rpl-4.0.5 (RPL/2)
534: - some bugfixes are added in process management;
535: - all process management is rewritten to avoid usage of defunct process
536: or thread number;
537: - new major bug is fixed in interruptions.c. Sometimes, when retrait_thread()
538: was called before a pending interruption5 (SIGFSTOP), signal handler uses
539: a freed semaphore and corrupts heap;
540: - CLRERR is added to erase previous errors;
541: - ERRN and ERRM return exception message and number;
542: - major bug is fixed in interruptions.c. All signal are now bufferised
543: when semaphore_liste_threads is null to avoid deadlock. This bug only
544: occured when STOP was sent to a dying thread or process (when this thread or
545: process was running retrait_thread());
546: - matrix rank is computed before matrix inversion;
547: - file locks are added to stdin and stdout. stderr is not locked because
548: all messages written by signal handlers are sent to stderr;
549: - configure.in script is modified to test gcc version and avoid a bug in
550: gcc older than 4.4;
551: - some benchmarks have been done :

623: SIGFSTP (with a nullified siginfo structure) instead of SIGHUP when control
624: process is killed;
625: - abs() macro is modified to avoid multiple evaluation. Your C compiler has to
626: know typeof() intrinsic function. This function is not standard but exists
627: under Sun Studio, gcc, and maybe some others compilers. If this function does

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

691: that all programs that worked with old SQL intrinsic can now work with
692: SQLQUERY. With all new programs, you can open a real connection to databases;
693: - NRPROC is added. This new intrinsic is used to catch error from child
694: process. Without NRPROC, any errors returned by child process cause
695: main process to abort;
696: - SPAWN is added. This new intrinsic is used to launch a new thread (DETACH
697: starts a new process). There are no mutexes in RPL/2 because all spawned process
698: use specific context. Nevertheless, shared variables and associated mutexes
699: should be added;

785: - FUSE, RFUSE and CLRFUSE have been added;
786: - new bug discovered on NetBSD. sigpending() does not return any signal, thus
787: DETACH intrinsic enters in a definitive dead lock. I have no idea to write a
788: workaround for this major bug. Nevertheless, all others capabilities seems to
789: work fine;
790: - '->' is modified to return error when program tries to initialiaze two
791: variables with the same name like
792: 1 0 -> I I << ... >>;

838: before starting interrupt evaluation;
839: - -f parameter is added when iconv is called;
840: - as old file program was bugged, a new option is added to configure script.
841: When configure is called with --disable-encoding-autodetection, make does not
842: try to detect source encoding. Please, do not use if RPL/2 can be built
843: without this option !
844: - new garbage collector (and more efficient) is written;
845: - configure script is modified to be usable on NetBSD 4.0, but as NetBSD does
846: not support real time signals, RPL/2 cannot use multitasking functions;

848: - -p option is added. With this option, all scripts are compiled before
849: RPL/2 starts evaluation. HALT cannot be used with -p, but all programs run
850: 40% faster;
851: - read and write operations in pipe() are rewritten to be sure that such
852: operations are atomic;
853: - minor bug is fixed in LOGSCALE. With {} LOGSCALE, all scales have to be

1049: or purge actions. New PARAMETER and VARIABLE intrinsics are modified
1050: versions of PROTECT and UNPROTECT that only deal with global variables
1051: (see RCL/SAVE);
1052: - variable management routines have been rewritten. The new ones are
1053: uncompatible with the old ones. Before these changes, a local variable
1054: was exported to a child subroutine, but cannot be modified into this

1470: statistical variable, or "DISABLED" if its type is not one of the type of
1471: a statistical matrix.) and XCOL and YCOL parameters. Warning: [[]] SIZE
1472: returns { 1 0 } and it is not a bug, because a null matrix contains _one_
1473: null line ! Thus, [[]] STOS SPAR returns { { 1 0 } 1 2 };
1474: - EXTERNAL intrinsic is added. Warning: by default, extern functions are
1475: disabled. Arguments of EXTERNAL are case sensitive because the external
1476: interface is written in C. { ext_sinus } EXTERNAL does not replace the list
1477: of known external functions but add the new list to the last. { "all" }
1478: EXTERNAL allows all external functions and { "none" } EXTERNAL removes all
1479: external names of the known functions;
1480: - mkrplso.in is modified.
1481: * Sun Apr 20 2003 BERTRAND Joël <rpl2@systella.fr> rpl-4.00pre6h (RPL/2)

1495: VISIT does not find a name in level 1;
1496: - configure.in script is modified to add a new test (--enable-debug
1497: flag). Configured with this fleg, RPL/2 will be built with electric-fences;
1498: - GETR (get row[s]) and GETC (get column[s]) are added. These new instructions
1499: extract a part of a matrix. Syntax: [[ 1 2 3 ][ 2 3 4 ]] { 1 } GETR or
1500: 'MATRIX' { 2 2 3 } GETR;
1501: - LOGSCALE intrinsic is improved and now, it can be used as
1502: { "main" "auxiliary" X Y } LOGSCALE;
1503: - SCALE intrinsic is used to fix the limits of a graphic. Its syntax is the
1504: same than AXES:
1505: { { 60 "ticsonly" 2 } { "automatic" "ticsonly" 10 } } axes
1506: { "auxiliary" { 60 "ticsonly" "default" } { "automatic" } } axes
1507: { { -10 10 } "automatic" } SCALE.
1508: Warning, it is not possible to ask a logarithmic scale with this intrinsic
1509: because it changes only the dimension of the screen. To have a logarithmic
1510: scale, you must use LOGSCALE intrinsic:
1511: { X } LOGSCALE gives a semi-log screen, { "auxiliary" X Y } gives a log-log
1512: screen on second scale;
1513: - { X X } autoscale and { Y Y } logscale are now invalid;
1514: - *D is added (depth multiplication, for 3D graphics);
1515: - a new intrinsic (*S) is added. It changes the scale of a graphic (X, Y

1533: in 0);
1534: - LAST is disabled in the main loop of DRAW intrinsic;
1535: - a major bug is fixed in DRAW intrinsic. When an error occurs in the
1536: evaluation of an equation, the system stack is returned corrupted to the
1537: sequencer;
1538: - the same minor bug is fixed in FOR and START. It only occurs when the limits
1539: of a loop are not integer or real.
