80: * Thu May 09 2011 BERTRAND Joël <rpl@systella.fr> rpl-4.0.23 (RPL/2)
81: - major bug is fixed in STD format (1E7 sq prints 1);
82: - major bug is fixed in READ intrinsic (socket). This bug was introduced
83: by a new feature in glibc.
84: * Thu Apr 14 2011 BERTRAND Joël <rpl@systella.fr> rpl-4.0.22 (RPL/2)
85: - by default, RPL/2 uses "NONE" IMPLICIT when it's started in batch mode and
86: "ALL" IMPLICIT when it runs in interactive mode;
87: - when "NONE" IMPLICIT is set, STO intrinsic raises an error when it is used
88: to create or modify a global variable. Now, with "NONE" IMPLICIT, you have
89: to use SAVE to manipulate global variables;
90: - replace erroneous TAB by TBL in evaluation() and formateur_fichier()
91: subroutines;
92: - fix major memory access violation in evaluation subroutine. Only occurs
93: when 'X(i,j)' is evaluated on a matrix and when (i,j) points out of bounds;
94: - fix major bug in evaluation subroutine. 'X(i)' returns execution error
95: when X was a vector or a table.
96: * Sun Apr 04 2011 BERTRAND Joël <rpl@systella.fr> rpl-4.0.21 (RPL/2)

125: * Thu Sep 23 2010 BERTRAND Joël <rpl@systella.fr> rpl-4.0.19 (RPL/2)
126: - due to a very strange bug I've only seen on Solaris, ptmalloc3 is removed.
127: Solaris libresolv randomly uses ptmalloc3 and system allocator and makes heap
128: corruption. As internal memory management have been improved, a best fit
129: allocator like ptmalloc3 is not required anymore;
130: - gnuplot is upgraded to 4.4.1;
131: - deadlock is fixed in signal handlers: same mutex was used in standard
132: subroutines (without protected sections by sigprocmask() or pthread_sigmask())
133: and signal handlers. A new signal handler specific mutex is added;
134: - minor bug is fixed in evaluation() subroutine. In { X 0 PI }, PI is a function
135: that has to be evaluated by ->NUM;
136: - rplfile build process is modify to be sure that rplfile is not modified
137: after rpl build stage (to be sure that rplfile checksum is not modified after

145: parent process was not interrupted if it is not group master process. To fix
146: this bug, SIGINJECT signal is not sent by child process but by control thread
147: in parent process;
148: - minor bug is fixed in data injection (POKE) that does not work as expected
149: when child process is protected by NRPROC.
150: * Thu Aug 26 2010 BERTRAND Joël <rpl@systella.fr> rpl-4.0.18 (RPL/2)
151: - --enable-sysv-sems is added to configure script to use SystemV semaphores
152: functions instead of POSIX functions. This function is disabled or forced on
153: systems that does not provide correct POSIX or SysV semaphores subsystem;
154: - a dirty but not quick patch is written to workaround broken siginfo
155: structures. This patch has been successfully tested. It uses a segment of
156: shared memory (Posix or SysV) and some semaphores (Posix or SysV) by process
157: (Unix PID);
158: - some OpenBSD's hacks are added;
159: - broken siginfo->si_pid field is now checked by configure script;

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

185: - BACKTRACE intrinsic is added;
186: - major bug is fixed in SELECT/DEFAULT/END conditional structure. Only occurs
187: when this structure is included in IFERR/THEN/END structure and when an error is
188: caught;
189: - major bug is fixed in analyse() subroutine. When evaluation() returned error
190: in a compiled program, analyse() caught this error twice and randomly aborted
191: with a segmentation error;
192: - TRIM and TOKENIZE replace both '\n' and '\t' by regular spaces;
193: - ATEXIT subroutine begins with an implicit CSTOP to avoid multiple stop
194: signals;

215: format in FCH (file descriptor) and SCK (socket descriptor);
216: - debug routines are improved;
217: - PROCID is added;
218: - MEMLOCK and MEMUNLOCK are added. MEMLOCK forces a process to remain in memory
219: and to not use swap;
220: - major bug is fixed in sql support. SQL connections were closed in all chield
221: process;
222: - standard allocator (malloc()/free()) is replaced by ptmalloc3 due to some bugs
223: discovered in Solaris thread safe allocators (libmalloc and libumem) that
224: are first fit class allocators. Solaris libmtmalloc works better and is
225: a best fit class allocator but its performance is poor than ptmalloc3
226: performance;
227: - major bug is fixed in ROW+ intrinsic (new row was not added where it
228: should);
229: - minor bugs are fixed in interruptions.c (semaphores values when error is
230: caught);
231: - major bug is fixed in STOP intrinsic. STOP was unable to stop any process
232: created by SPAWN;

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

301: - RPL/2 tools (rpliconv, rplfile, rplpp and rplconvert) are now checked before
302: each execution (md5 and sha1 sums) to enhance security. If one of these tools
303: have been modified between RPL/2 compilation and current execution, RPL/2 aborts
304: on a non recoverable system error;
305: - openssl and sqlite3 libraries are added;
306: - RPL_HOME env variable is added. When RPL/2 is called from librpl, this

344: signals sent to main process were not caught because DAEMON did not replace
345: old pid by new one;
346: - major bug is fixed in IFERR/THEN/ELSE/END. Only occurs in expression
347: evaluation when an error is reported from a subroutine in another subroutine.
348: For example, error was not caught in following program when it is executed with

388: execution error in compiled scripts (only in DO/UNTIL and REPEAT/WHILE loops);
389: - major bug is fixed in wrapper_instruction_intrinseque(). When intrinsic() was
390: used in onLoading from shared library, USE was pushed on stack as algebraic
391: expression;
392: - libiconv is upgraded to 1.13.1;
393: - gnuplot is upgraded to 4.2.6;
394: - gsl is upgraded to 1.13.
395: * Mon Sep 28 2009 BERTRAND Joël <rpl@systella.fr> rpl-4.0.6 (RPL/2)
396: - pipe() is overwritten by a macro to avoid a system error. Communication
397: between process are done with pipes and these pipes are managed by a
398: specific asynchrone thread. If a script try to create more threads than
399: management thread can destroy, you can quickly achieve maximum number of
400: opened files and pipe() shall return a system error. This macro tries to create
401: pipes. If pipe() function returns an error, macro waits and retries. If
402: number of retries is greater than a hardcoded value, macro returns an error;
403: - major bug (deadlock) is fixed in process and thread management. I hope
404: this bug shall be the last one;
405: - major bug is fixed in DET intrinsic (determinant was computed without LU
406: diagonalization);
407: - SWAPCNTXT is added;
408: - minor bug is fixed in Makefile.am (licences rule).

410: - some bugfixes are added in process management;
411: - all process management is rewritten to avoid usage of defunct process
412: or thread number;
413: - new major bug is fixed in interruptions.c. Sometimes, when retrait_thread()
414: was called before a pending interruption5 (SIGFSTOP), signal handler uses
415: a freed semaphore and corrupts heap;
416: - CLRERR is added to erase previous errors;
417: - ERRN and ERRM return exception message and number;
418: - major bug is fixed in interruptions.c. All signal are now bufferised
419: when semaphore_liste_threads is null to avoid deadlock. This bug only
420: occured when STOP was sent to a dying thread or process (when this thread or
421: process was running retrait_thread());
422: - matrix rank is computed before matrix inversion;
423: - file locks are added to stdin and stdout. stderr is not locked because
424: all messages written by signal handlers are sent to stderr;
425: - configure.in script is modified to test gcc version and avoid a bug in
426: gcc older than 4.4;
427: - some benchmarks have been done :

499: SIGFSTP (with a nullified siginfo structure) instead of SIGHUP when control
500: process is killed;
501: - abs() macro is modified to avoid multiple evaluation. Your C compiler has to
502: know typeof() intrinsic function. This function is not standard but exists
503: under Sun Studio, gcc, and maybe some others compilers. If this function does
504: not exist on your compiler, you can change its definition by old one in
505: src/rpl.h;
506: - fflush() can now be interrupted by signal (SunOS);
507: - fflush(NULL) is called before all fork() occurrences;

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

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

567: that all programs that worked with old SQL intrinsic can now work with
568: SQLQUERY. With all new programs, you can open a real connection to databases;
569: - NRPROC is added. This new intrinsic is used to catch error from child
570: process. Without NRPROC, any errors returned by child process cause
571: main process to abort;
572: - SPAWN is added. This new intrinsic is used to launch a new thread (DETACH
573: starts a new process). There are no mutexes in RPL/2 because all spawned process
574: use specific context. Nevertheless, shared variables and associated mutexes
575: should be added;

664: workaround for this major bug. Nevertheless, all others capabilities seems to
665: work fine;
666: - '->' is modified to return error when program tries to initialiaze two

715: - -f parameter is added when iconv is called;
716: - as old file program was bugged, a new option is added to configure script.
717: When configure is called with --disable-encoding-autodetection, make does not
718: try to detect source encoding. Please, do not use if RPL/2 can be built
719: without this option !
720: - new garbage collector (and more efficient) is written;
721: - configure script is modified to be usable on NetBSD 4.0, but as NetBSD does
722: not support real time signals, RPL/2 cannot use multitasking functions;

724: - -p option is added. With this option, all scripts are compiled before
725: RPL/2 starts evaluation. HALT cannot be used with -p, but all programs run
726: 40% faster;
727: - read and write operations in pipe() are rewritten to be sure that such
728: operations are atomic;

870: - external wrapper (rplplot) is written to force usage of gnuplot provided
871: by RPL/2 if it is built during build process. If this build does not exist,
872: it tries to launch regular gnuplot;
873: - gnuplot is added to source tree to avoid some trouble between preinstalled
874: gnuplot and release used by RPL/2. This addition to source tree is
875: required by some incompatibility between gnuplot releases;
876: - Lapack is upgraded to 3.1.1 release;
877: - GSL is upgraded to 1.9 revision;

925: or purge actions. New PARAMETER and VARIABLE intrinsics are modified
926: versions of PROTECT and UNPROTECT that only deal with global variables
927: (see RCL/SAVE);
928: - variable management routines have been rewritten. The new ones are
929: uncompatible with the old ones. Before these changes, a local variable
930: was exported to a child subroutine, but cannot be modified into this
931: child subroutine. Now, a local variable is accessible only in its subroutine;
932: - SAVE intrinsic is added to manipulate global variables;

1253: fine...);
1254: - NOT is not correctly formatted in formateur.c:
1255: Z NOT -> 'NOT Z' but 'A+Z' NOT -> 'NOT A+Z' and 'NOT Z+A' -> 'NOTZ+A'
1256: with a NOTZ function !
1257: * Sun Aug 10 2003 BERTRAND Joël <rpl2@systella.fr> rpl-4.00pre7c (RPL/2)

1260: - RPL/2 is tested with efence and valgrind;
1261: - configure.in script is modified;
1262: - units.c is modified to be built by gcc-3.3. I only have removed a #if 0/#endif

1342: - SCLS is added;
1343: - DRWS now uses COLS to draw 2D graphics;
1344: - PPAR and SPAR are written. SPAR returns a list that contains the
1345: size of the statistical matrix (or "UNAVALAIBLE" if there is any
1346: statistical variable, or "DISABLED" if its type is not one of the type of
1347: a statistical matrix.) and XCOL and YCOL parameters. Warning: [[]] SIZE
1348: returns { 1 0 } and it is not a bug, because a null matrix contains _one_
1349: null line ! Thus, [[]] STOS SPAR returns { { 1 0 } 1 2 };
1350: - EXTERNAL intrinsic is added. Warning: by default, extern functions are
1351: disabled. Arguments of EXTERNAL are case sensitive because the external
1352: interface is written in C. { ext_sinus } EXTERNAL does not replace the list
1353: of known external functions but add the new list to the last. { "all" }
1354: EXTERNAL allows all external functions and { "none" } EXTERNAL removes all
1355: external names of the known functions;
1356: - mkrplso.in is modified.
1357: * Sun Apr 20 2003 BERTRAND Joël <rpl2@systella.fr> rpl-4.00pre6h (RPL/2)
1358: - vim syntax file is upgraded;
1359: - a minor mistake is fixed in recherche_instruction_suivante();

1370: - a very minor bug is fixed in VISIT intrinsic. It only occurs when
1371: VISIT does not find a name in level 1;
1372: - configure.in script is modified to add a new test (--enable-debug
1373: flag). Configured with this fleg, RPL/2 will be built with electric-fences;
1374: - GETR (get row[s]) and GETC (get column[s]) are added. These new instructions
1375: extract a part of a matrix. Syntax: [[ 1 2 3 ][ 2 3 4 ]] { 1 } GETR or
1376: 'MATRIX' { 2 2 3 } GETR;
1377: - LOGSCALE intrinsic is improved and now, it can be used as
1378: { "main" "auxiliary" X Y } LOGSCALE;
1379: - SCALE intrinsic is used to fix the limits of a graphic. Its syntax is the
1380: same than AXES:
1381: { { 60 "ticsonly" 2 } { "automatic" "ticsonly" 10 } } axes
1382: { "auxiliary" { 60 "ticsonly" "default" } { "automatic" } } axes
1383: { { -10 10 } "automatic" } SCALE.
1384: Warning, it is not possible to ask a logarithmic scale with this intrinsic
1385: because it changes only the dimension of the screen. To have a logarithmic
1386: scale, you must use LOGSCALE intrinsic:
1387: { X } LOGSCALE gives a semi-log screen, { "auxiliary" X Y } gives a log-log
1388: screen on second scale;
1389: - { X X } autoscale and { Y Y } logscale are now invalid;
1390: - *D is added (depth multiplication, for 3D graphics);
1391: - a new intrinsic (*S) is added. It changes the scale of a graphic (X, Y
1392: and Z axes). The result of *S is the same than DUP DUP *H *W *D;
1393: - a major bug is fixed in GETI instrinsic when it is used with a name
1394: that contains a matrix or a vector (bad upper bounds conditions in
1395: incrementation);
1396: - DISP intrinsic now uses the 33-th flag. When it is not set
1397: (default), a final carriage return is sent to the terminal;
1398: - AXES intrinsic only takes a list that can contains the keywork
1399: "main" or "auxiliary". Before this modification, this keyword was in
1400: the first stack level;
1401: - vim syntax file is upgraded;
1402: - in appel_gnuplot(), stdin is closed when gnuplot is called with -raise
1403: option;
1404: - LAST is now disabled in the main loop of INT intrinsic;
1405: - expm1 and lnp1 are rewritten to use expm1 and log1p from math.h.
1406: * Sun Apr 6 2003 BERTRAND Joël <rpl2@systella.fr> rpl-4.00pre6f (RPL/2)
1407: - a major bug is fixed in evaluation() subroutine. It occurs with DRAW
1408: intrinsic when the equation cannot be evaluated (for example 'SIN(X)/X'
1409: in 0);
1410: - LAST is disabled in the main loop of DRAW intrinsic;
1411: - a major bug is fixed in DRAW intrinsic. When an error occurs in the
1412: evaluation of an equation, the system stack is returned corrupted to the
1413: sequencer;
1414: - the same minor bug is fixed in FOR and START. It only occurs when the limits
1415: of a loop are not integer or real.
1416: * Sun Mar 31 2003 BERTRAND Joël <rpl2@systella.fr> rpl-4.00pre6e (RPL/2)
1417: - the compilation stage aborts with an error message when two definitions
1418: have the same name. To improve the compilation() subroutine, I have to
1419: add some tests in gestion_variables.c;
1420: - recherche_type() subroutine ad some other connex subroutines are improved.
1421: Now, some syntax errors about object are caught and do not perform sequencer
1422: hangup;
1423: - readline is upgraded (minor compilation bug with recent gcc);
1424: - Makefile.am's and configure.in scripts are improved.
1425: * Fri Mar 14 2003 BERTRAND Joël <rpl2@systella.fr> rpl-4.00pre6d (RPL/2)
1426: - DRWS intrinsic is written. Two datastyles are associated: SCATTER (2D
1427: and 3D) and HISTOGRAM (only 2D, but 3 columns are accepted, the third shown
1428: the boxwidth, 1 by default);
1429: - recherche_type() is rewritten to be faster;
1430: - gsl is upgraded (release 1.3);
1431: - ncurses is upgraded and patched (release 5.3);
1432: - recherche_instruction_suivante() is fixed (string research with included
1433: '"') and rewritten to be faster;

1447: of a 3D-graphic (for example 'SIN(R)/R' with 'R=SQRT(X**2+Y**2)' in X=0 and
1448: Y=0), no graph was procuced (it results from a bug in gnuplot, and this fix
1449: is a quick and dirty workaround...);
1450: - RETURN intrinsic is modified to fix a trouble in interactive mode;
1451: - rplconvert is improved.

1509: 'X' 0 + and 0 'X' + return 'X';
1510: 'X' 0 - returns 'X';
1511: 'X' 1 * and 1 'X' * return 'X';

1514: 'X' 1 ** returns 'X';
1515: 'NEG(X)' NEG returns 'X';
1516: - autoconf/automake scripts are improved: now, the size of the different types
1517: found by configure are used in rpltypes.h (rplconfig.h is written by configure);
1518: - rdynamic flag is added in src/Makefile.am. This flag is used in the first
1519: makefile, but forgotten in the new process;
1520: - Flag 31 is tested before saving any arguments in bibliotheques_externes.c;
1521: - POS can now be used on lists;

1533: deleted too!;
1534: - configure script is improved (and it seems to be good ;-) );
1535: - An --disable-experimental flag is added to the configure script. Thus, even
1536: if you compile a beta release, you can compile a stable RPL/2;
1537: - new syntax and ftplugin written for vim 6.0.

1550: that the RPL/2 seqencer must stop and must give a prompt. This
1551: signal is an asynchonous "HALT" command;
1552: - SIGINT (CTRL+C) variables stack corruption is fixed;
1553: - IFERR seems to be fixed (in equation evaluation routine);
1554: - Memory leak is fixed (ADR object type);

1561: i586, i686, K6, K7, alpha ev4, alpha ev5, alpha ev56, alpha ev6, sparc v7,
1562: sparc v8 and sparc v9. Compilation of RPL/2 on my Sun Sparc 2 (sun4c,
1563: CPU 4/75, 64 MB, 40 MHz with FPU) is a very great mission :
1564:
1565: Newton:[~/rpl/rpl] > time make install
1566: ...
1567: real 338m39.623s
1568: user 324m32.290s
1569: sys 10m47.380s
1570: Newton:[~/rpl/rpl] >
1571:
1572: I don't know if you will compile this language on old worstations, but
1573: it is usable ;-) ;
1574: - SYSEVAL is improved. An external program can be called without any shell.
