pike.git/CHANGES:1:
Changes since Pike 7.8.352 (third 7.8 release): ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Extensions and New Functions ----------------------------
-
FIXME: Complete to about 1 Apr 2010
-
+
o Added module Search. FIXME: Needs a couple of paragraphs of description.
-
o ADT.Heap->values and ->num_values can now be overloaded
-
FIXME: TOMUCHINFORMATION?
-
+
o has_prefix now works on objects. o Standards.JSON New module for encoding and decoding JSON data. Implemented in C. o Protocols.HTTP.Session will no longer override an existing content-type header in async_do_method_url.
-
o
Updated timezone data to tzdata2009u
.
+
o
Protocols
.
HTTP
-
+
Allow directly specifying the body of a POST request (needed for the Google
+
Apps API).
+
+
o Updated timezone data to tzdata2010l.
+
o String.normalize_space New and efficient C implementation; sanitises whitespace, even in wide strings. o String.trim_all_whites Extended to the entire range of Unicode white spaces. (And is faster.)
-
o Protocols.HTTP
-
-
Allow directly specifying the body of a POST request (needed for the Google
-
Apps API).
-
+
o Tools.PV and pike -x pv now works with GTK2 as well as GTK. o Integer constants exported by modules can now be used in cpp expressions.
-
+
o Modules/programs that have the constant "dont_dump_program" will not
+
be dumped on installation. This is used to prevent dumping of
+
programs that check for external dependencies at compile time such
+
as the MySQL module.
-
+
o Added Thread.Queue.peek_array.
+
+
o Fixed stack overrun bug in Nettle.CBC and Nettle.Proxy. This is not
+
belived to be a security issue.
+
+
o Added System.getloadavg() on platforms that support the getloadavg() call.
+
+
o SSL
+
+
Added support for AES to SSL3, and fixed bug that prevented some
+
handshake failure alers to be sent to the client.
+
+
o ADT.Heap->values and ->num_values can now be overloaded.
+
Optimizations ------------- o MIME should now use 1/3 less memory when decoding big messages.
-
+
o Improved performance of Process.run.
-
+
o Nettle.hash
+
+
Disallow threads during hashing of small strings (current threshold is
+
1 MB). This change improves ApacheBench numbers ~20% for a Roxen
+
benchmark on a quad-core Core i5.
+
+
Deprecations ------------ o The libpq based old Postgres driver is now deprecated. The new pgsql driver is faster, better tested, more stable, maintained, has more features, does not depend on external libraries and is less filling. Incompatible changes --------------------
pike.git/CHANGES:67:
now becomes int query_tooltip(GTK2.Widget w, int x, int y, int keyboard_tooltip, GTK2.GObject tooltip, mixed callback_arg) Bug fixes ---------
+
o Fixed backtraces when Protocols.HTTP.Query objects where garbage
+
collected. [bug 5730]
+
o Fixed problem with Calendar.month_from_yday() when applied on week 53. [bug 5303] o Fixed leak in the PNG decoder for images with tRNS chunk. o System.normalize_path no long fails for files with 8-bit chars in their names. o Support undocumented OS behaviour on out-of-band data returning EOPNOTSUPP and ECONNRESET when a stream is half closed.
pike.git/CHANGES:122:
http://pike.ida.liu.se/docs/tutorial/hello/window.xml now works again. o Fixed several issues related to lables on the X and Y axises and the calculation of xmaxvalue for the bars/line/linear case in Graphics.Graph. o Fixed encoding/decoding bug in "pike -x httpserver" that prevented files with space in the name for being accessable.
+
o Fixed bug that prevented literal zero to be considered a constant.
-
+
Building and installing ----------------------- o Fixed som library searchpath issues. o Some potential fixes for --enable-pikelib mode on platforms had problems with the final linking.
