5 04032007 - Added a "make dist" target for packing up source code releases.
6 Reverted Unix recursive mutex code. There were some portability
7 issues I didn't anticipate. Upped version to 1.1.1!
8 04022007 - Added wxWidgets-based test program (incomplete). Filled in and
9 corrected some Doxygen comments.
10 04012007 - Added PHYSFS_isInit() and PHYSFS_symbolicLinksPermitted() functions.
11 03312007 - Added a quick'n'dirty unpack utility to the extras directory. Moved
12 DIR archiver to start of the list, so we don't have to have every
13 other archiver fail to open a directory as a file before mounting
14 it. Fixed typos in makeos2.cmd and the Doxygen comments. Added
15 symlink support to windows.c for use on Vista-based systems.
16 03282007 - Logic bug in MVL/HOG/GRP archivers: only enumerated files when
17 looking in a directory other than the root, instead of enumerating
18 only for the root (thanks, Chris!). Minor fix for compilers that
19 don't like the BAIL_* macros with an empty argument
21 03262007 - Tons of Unicode work in windows.c ... should now use UCS-2 on
22 NT/XP/Vista/etc versions of the OS, and fallback to "ANSI" versions
23 for 95/98/ME, tapdancing around the system codepage if it has to.
24 Since the Unicode entry points are dynamically loaded, it won't
25 have issues with missing symbols on Win9x, nor does it need to be
26 built separately with #define UNICODE (although it will work the
27 same with or without this define, as it doesn't use TCHARs or
28 the non-[WA] versions of APIs. Other minor Windows cleanups and
30 03252007 - Improved dynamic loader and initial Unicode work in windows.c ...
31 03242007 - Replaced BeOS semaphores with BLockers for the mutex implementation.
32 It's much simpler, it has "benaphores" built in behind the scenes
33 for faster performance, and it's recursive...also, we were
34 previously setting the PhysicsFS error state if BeOS mutex grabbing
35 failed (a big no no!), and that's now fixed. Good wins all around.
36 03222007 - Replaced some Malloc and all the alloca() calls with
37 __PHYSFS_smallAlloc(), which will stack allocate small (128 or
38 less bytes) blocks and Malloc the rest...naturally these now have
39 to be paired with __PHYSFS_smallFree() calls, so you can't be as
40 lazy as a basic alloca() would let you be. The benefit is both less
41 malloc pressure for those temporary allocations and better stack
42 overflow safety (so if some jerk tries to push a 78 megabyte string
43 through the library as a filename, we won't try to strcpy it to
44 the stack). Hopefully some internal interfaces can now get
45 refactored to stop generating heap pointers and let the caller use
46 smallAlloc to further reduce malloc pressure.
47 03212007 - Replaced LONGLONGLITERAL with __PHYSFS_UI64/__PHYSFS_SI64 ...
48 03202007 - Removed platform/skeleton.c (it was out of date), added
49 platform/macosx.c (To further Macify the code and get the #ifdefs
50 out of unix.c), and refactored the platform layer to try and
51 make the unix/posix/macosx/beos sources try to find a split that
52 works. Moved the platform allocators to physfs.c, since all but
53 Mac OS X were using malloc()...there's now an interface for the
54 platform to supply a custom allocator if they don't want the malloc
55 version. Removed __PHYSFS_platformTimeslice(), as it's no longer
56 being used. Replaced manual management of pthread mutexes with
57 PTHREAD_MUTEX_RECURSIVE attribute...let's see what platforms
58 throw up on that. Handled documentation comment FIXME in physfs.h.
59 03192007 - Fixed two switched strings in CMakeLists.txt ... patch to compile
60 with latest Windows Platform SDK. Explicitly check for NULL in
61 PHYSFS_init() when we can't go on without a real string here.
62 Removed ANSI-C workaround for missing lstat() nonsense in posix.c
63 (POSIX != ANSI, time to give up here). Try to use /proc/self/exe
64 to find the base dir on Unix, so we can do without argv[0] on
65 systems with a Linux-like /proc filesystem.
66 03162007 - Changed PHYSFS_file from a typedef to a #define (in case it would
67 cause an aggressive compiler to think you're passing the wrong type
68 to a function) and added Doxygen comments to explain it.
69 03152007 - Bunch of work on Unicode...added case-folding stricmp, removed
70 platform-specific stricmp implementations, changed appropriate
71 calls to an ASCII-only stricmp that ignores locale. Fixed case on
72 UTF-8 API entry points.
73 03142007 - Dropped classic Mac OS support. It's just too hard to find a working
74 Mac OS 9 install and reasonable development tools, so it's not
75 worth it. If you still target OS 8 or 9, please use PhysicsFS 1.0.
76 03112007 - Removed zlib_license_change.txt ... it's in Subversion and the 1.0
77 branch for history's sake. Added shared and static build options
78 to CMakeLists.txt, and the expected "make install" target.
79 Renamed some FILENAME files to FILENAME.txt, removed physfs.rc.
80 Now compiles everything whether we need it or not, removing whole
81 files with #ifdefs...this will make it easier to "embed" this
82 library in other projects or use a different build system: just
83 push everything through the compiler with preprocessor defines for
84 the parts you want/need...platform modules are determined
85 automatically without the build system needing to intervene, so you
86 just have to #define the archivers, etc that you want.
87 Updated makeos2.cmd for newer Innotek toolchain (thanks, Dave!)
88 03082007 - Fixed a comment in physfs.h. Renamed win32.c to windows.c.
89 Cleaned up whitespace/formatting in pocketpc.c. Updated PocketPC
90 code to expect UTF-8 strings from the higher level. Changed
91 PHYSFS_SUPPORTS_LZMA to PHYSFS_SUPPORTS_7Z. Killed some #ifdefs
92 in physfs.c. Moved to CMake...so long, autotools! Killed MIX
94 11052006 - More 7zip archiver work (thanks, Dennis!). Initial Unicode work.
95 Minor BeOS realpath tweak.
96 09272006 - Reworked 7zip archiver (thanks, Dennis!).
97 09232006 - Fixed typo in doxygen comment.
98 04112006 - Added LZMA archiver...7zip support (thanks, Dennis!).
99 03232006 - Added -fvisibility for gcc4 (http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/Visibility)
100 01012006 - Cleaned up overflow checks in platform memory allocators (thanks to
101 Nicolas Lebedenco for pointing out the original issue with
102 long long literals). Added physfs.rc (thanks, Dennis!). Changed my
103 email address. Removed acconfig.h.
104 11282005 - Corrected docs on PHYSFS_setWriteDir().
105 10122005 - Fixed locateInStringList() in physfs.c (thanks, Matze!). Patched
106 archivers/wad.c to compile.
107 09192005 - Make unix mutexes recursive above pthread layer...fixes deadlock on
109 09182005 - API BREAKAGE: PHYSFS_enumerateFilesCallback() now passes the
110 original directory name back to the app in the callback. This
111 API was only in 1.1.0, and wasn't promised to be stable at this
112 point. Please update your apps! Cleaned out a FIXME in file
113 enumeration that would confuse the library under certain
115 09092005 - Some tweaks to PHYSFS_Allocator. Apparently configure.in doesn't
116 work like I thought for version bumps, so it thinks 1.1.0 isn't
117 binary compatible with 1.0...fixed, I think.
118 09062005 - Happy September. Changed the allocation abstraction to use
119 PHYSFS_uint64 instead of size_t, so we don't have to include
120 system headers inside physfs.h. Minor MingW fixes (but it's still
122 08202005 - Fixed bug in verifyPath() that was breaking PHYSFS_setSaneConfig()
123 and other corner cases.
124 07242005 - Patched to compile on BeOS.
125 07232005 - Fixed bug in zip archiver (thanks, Jörg Walter!).
126 More minor OS/2 tweaks. Updated zlib to 1.2.3, which properly
127 includes the security fix. Fixed "make dist" to handle .svn dirs
128 and other file changes. Removed "debian" directory. Allow a mount
129 point of NULL to be "/", per the documentation. Fixed warning in
130 physfs.c. Assert definition fix. Updated CWProjects.sit.
131 Upped version to 1.1.0 ... first release of 1.1 dev branch!
132 07212005 - Patched to compile on OS/2 again.
133 07132005 - Updated zlib to 1.2.2, and patched it for this security hole:
134 http://www.cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CAN-2005-2096
135 06122005 - Added support for mingw to Unix build process (thanks, Matze!).
136 03162005 - Added missing translation and Portuguese support (thanks, Danny!).
137 MPW support and several MacOS Classic fixes (thanks, Chris!).
138 Changed CWProjects from SITX to SIT format, so OS9 users can
140 03132005 - More mount work, added PHYSFS_getMountPoint() and more cleanups.
141 Replaced all the C runtime allocations with PhysFS allocation hooks.
142 Added pocketpc.c to EXTRA_DIST. Added allocation hooks to some
143 platform drivers. Updated Mac Classic build.
144 03122005 - Added evil GOTO_*_MACRO_* macros. Fixed unix.c to compile again on
145 MacOS X. Added PHYSFS_mount() (thanks, Philip!). Cleaned up the
146 INSTALL and CREDITS files a little. Split off start of
147 verifySecurity() into a path sanitizer and changed entry points to
148 sanitize input paths into a stack-allocated buffer before further
149 processing. This removes the need for a malloc() for almost all
150 file system operations, and generally cleaned things up. Added a
151 "mount" command to test_physfs. Other general cleanups.
152 02152005 - Minor comment fix in platform/pocketpc.c
153 01052005 - Fixed HOG archiver file lookup (thanks, Chris!)
154 12162004 - Fixed some documentation/header comment typos (thanks, Gaetan!)
155 10302004 - Fixed a strcpy that should have been a strcat. (thanks, Tolga!)
156 Build system respects external CFLAGS now. (thanks, Adam!)
157 Fixed infinite loop in new enumeration code. (thanks, Adam!)
158 10062004 - Removed profiling code from physfs.c.
159 09292004 - Every API that can return a list of strings can now use a
160 callback mechanism if the application wants to do it's own
161 allocation or handling on a per-item basis. The guts of those
162 APIs that create string lists now use the callbacks themselves to
163 build the lists, too. The callback functionality goes all the way
164 down to the archivers and platform drivers where appropriate, which
165 cleans things up and simplifies some internal tasks very nicely.
166 Got rid of all the annoying forward declarations in all the
167 archivers and moved their PHYSFS_Archiver data to the end of the
168 file, since this was annoying me and I was getting sick of updating
169 function signatures in two places when the internal API changed.
170 Removed the code/data for LinkedStringLists...it isn't used anymore
171 now that the callback code is in place.
172 09262004 - Did the same thing to FileHandles than I did to DirHandles, but
173 this triggered massive tweaking in physfs.c. A lot of code got
174 little cleanups, which was nice. Less malloc pressure, too, since
175 opening a file used to allocate a ton of crap and mush it
176 together...now it's basically down to one structure and the
177 instance data in whatever archiver. Minor varname tweak in win32.c
178 and pocketpc.c. Changed PHYSFS_file to PHYSFS_File to match the
179 rest of the API's naming scheme (but put a typedef for source
181 09252004 - Cleaned up archiver interface to not deal with DirHandles anymore,
182 which simplifies things, removes some responsibility and code
183 duplication from the archivers, and trims some malloc pressure.
184 Ripped up the allocation hook code a little. We'll try to screw
185 with memory locking later, since it makes everything ugly and
187 09232004 - Started adding allocation hooks.
188 09222004 - Happy September. Added Spanish translation back in.
189 04092004 - Added MIX support for legacy Westwood titles (Thanks, Sebastian!).
190 Made bootstrap script MacOSX-friendly. Moved byteorder defines into
191 physfs_internal.h ...
192 01152003 - Added Portuguese (Brazil) translation (Thanks, Danny!)
195 --- This is where the 1.1 development branch starts. ---
197 12292003 - Updated CodeWarrior projects from CW6 to CW7, and made a bunch of
198 patches to get the Mac Classic target building again. Removed
199 zlib114 from CVS repository. Updated OS/2 build batch file.
200 Added Z_PREFIX define to Unix builds that use internal zlib.
201 Patched up some (outdated?) Visual C project files for zlib121.
202 Patched Doxyfile and physfs.h for newer Doxygen. Fixed OS/2
203 build script. Tweaked Project Builder files to at least compile.
204 Added some last minute BeOS and Cygwin build fixes. Updated
205 Visual Studio projects and tweaked some Makefile.am crap. Made
206 changes so Visual Studio files would pack with DOS endlines and...
207 Upped version to 1.0.0 (woohoo!).
208 12222003 - Fixed a search-and-replace mistake in win32.c that preventing
209 compiling on Windows. (thanks, Brian!) Converted VC6 .dsp to use
210 zlib121; made Z_PREFIX=1 enabled by default to avoid link clashes;
211 put zlib files in separate logical folder in .dsp project; updated
212 zlib121/zconf.h to address remaining symbols that were still
213 causing link warnings.
214 12182003 - WAD archiver now puts maps into subdirectories, making them
215 accessible to the application. (Thanks, Travis!) RPM spec and
216 Makefile.am* now package zlib_license_change.txt (Thanks, Edward!)
217 12142003 - Added Doom WAD support (Thanks, Travis!)
218 12082003 - Fixed some win32.c deficiencies that Robby Dermody pointed
220 12072003 - Upgraded internal zlib to 1.2.1 (thanks, Adam!) Other
222 11112003 - Patches to make OS/2 support compile again.
223 11092003 - Added __PHYSFS_platformStrnicmp(), and made qpak.c case-insensitive.
224 09122003 - Happy September. Actually released current tree as 0.1.9.
225 08262003 - Added MiNT support to build process and fixed cross-compiling
226 (thanks Patrice Mandin!)
227 08092003 - Some Windows build fixes (thanks, Brian Hook!)
228 07232003 - Upped version to 0.1.9.
229 07202003 - Switched to zlib license (see new LICENSE text in root of source
230 tree, and zlib_license_switch.txt for details). Had to remove
231 archivers/qpak.c, the Ruby bindings from the extras directory, and
232 the Russian and Spanish translations, since those contributors
233 couldn't be contacted. If they show up, we'll readd them to the
234 project, otherwise we'll eventually replace their work...everyone
235 else signed on for the change. Committed a patch to convert all
236 tabs to spaces (Thanks, James!). Added patch to zip.c to fix
237 crash (thanks, dillo!). Reimplmented qpak.c, by welding together
238 bits of grp.c and zip.c. Ed contacted me, so I could readd his
239 contributions post-license change...I'm going to keep the new
240 qpak.c, but I've readded his Ruby bindings and Russian translations.
241 06112003 - Patches to globbing.c to handle corner cases (thanks, Bradley!).
242 06102003 - Added globbing.c to "extras" directory.
243 05232003 - Rewrote MacOSX/Darwin CD-ROM detection code to use IOKit, which is
244 much much more accurate than the previous code. Updated
245 configure.in and Makefile.am.newautomake for some MacOSX stuff.
246 05222003 - Fixed win32 crash if PHYSFS_init() is called with a NULL.
247 05182003 - PocketPC fixes (thanks, David Hedbor!)
248 05162003 - Compiler warning cleanup in HOG and MVL archivers (Thanks, Bradley!)
249 04082003 - Minor changes to extras/abs-file.h (Thanks, Adam!)
250 03302003 - Fixed seeking in uncompressed ZIP entries, and handle a
251 misbehaviour in Java's JAR creation tools. Thanks to "Tree" for
252 pointing these bugs out. Added HOG and MVL archive support for
253 Descent I and II (Thanks, Bradley Bell!). Added example code to
254 do case-insensitive file searches ("extras/ignorecase.*").
255 03192003 - Fixed problem in PHYSFS_mkdir() when dirs to be created already
256 exist. Fixed problem where PHYSFS_mkdir() incorrectly tripped an
257 alarm in __PHYSFS_verifySecurity().
258 03122003 - Attempt at cleaning up some type correctness for VC++6. Made QPAK
259 archiver case-insensitive (since Quake2 has problems without it).
260 01302003 - Added buffering API to OS/2 build's exported symbol list. Updated
261 CWProjects.sit and made several fixes to get physfs building on
263 01282003 - Fixed seeking in buffered files opened for read.
264 01072003 - .NET assembly and C# wrapper by Gregory S. Read in the extras dir.
265 01042003 - Added a hack for dealing with OSX bundles and newer PBProjects
266 (thanks, Eric Wing!). Added some missing files to "make dist".
267 Fixed minor Doxygen typo in PHYSFS_flush() docs. Upped version to
269 12172002 - Added Apple Project Builder support files (thanks, Eric Wing!).
270 12112002 - Added Ruby bindings to extras directory (thanks, Ed Sinjiashvili!).
271 Patched win32.c to compile with Mingw32 (thanks, Niels Wagenaar!).
272 12032002 - Adam updated his extras/abs-file.h for the new buffering API.
273 12022002 - German translation added, compliments of Michael Renner.
274 12012002 - Minor fix to configure.in: reported --enable-debug's default
275 setting incorrectly. Added buffering to the API: you can now
276 buffer a file with PHYSFS_setBuffer(), and flush the buffer to
277 disk with PHYSFS_flush(). PhysicsFS file handles are unbuffered
278 by default (as they were before this API addition), so this does
279 not break the API. Other fixes for bugs I stumbled upon during
280 this work are in CVS, too.
281 11292002 - Minor fix for strange PATH strings in unix.c (thanks, Alexander!)
282 11222002 - Initial PocketPC port by Corona688.
283 10222002 - Fixed segfault in test_physfs.c when user hits CTRL-D (and
284 readline() thus returns NULL)...now gracefully exits, as it should.
285 10142002 - Added check for AMD's x86-64 ("Hammer") architecture when
286 determining platform byte order.
287 10112002 - Fixed "setsaneconfig" command in test_physfs.c ...
288 09232002 - Happy September. Updated VC++6 project files, fixed some
289 VC++ compile nags (more work to be done in zip.c).
290 08302002 - Cleaned tab stops out of zip.c, and fixed a possible infinite loop
292 08292002 - Fixed a mistake in makeos2.cmd, and updated the INSTALL docs.
293 Added physfs.spec.in to EXTRA_DIST in Makefile.am*
294 08292002 - Added a physfs/stdio wrapper header to the "extras" dir,
295 compliments of Adam D. Moss (file is "abs-file.h").
296 08282002 - Cleanups in grp.c so that Visual C++ doesn't complain anymore.
297 zip.c now works correctly when PhysicsFS is disallowing symlinks.
298 A few minor optimizations in zip.c, with a few more to come later.
299 Added VS.NET project files to CVS.
300 08222002 - Fixed ZIP_exists() to work with directories. Now breaks out of
301 __PHYSFS_verifySecurity() early if a path element is missing
302 (since all the others will be, too)...this check is only done
303 if symlinks are disabled, but we might as well save easy cycles
305 08212002 - Did a couple tedious-for-small-rewards cleanups, optimizations,
306 corrections and streamlinings I've been meaning to do. Touched a
307 lot of code. One of the side results is that ZIP_isDirectory()
309 08192002 - Generalized sorting routines, moved them into physfs.c and removed
310 the multiple copies from the various archivers. Adding profiling
311 code (currently only for sort routines)...enable it with
312 --enable-profiling in the configure script. Fixed incorrect
313 behaviours in configure.in.
314 08172002 - Patched configure.in to work around buggy autoconfs.
315 08162002 - Fixed QPAK archiver, since I broke it (sorry!). Also fixed a
317 08092002 - Added Quake PAK archiver (qpak.c) by Ed Sinjiashvili. Thanks!
318 Made (successful?) attempt to fix pthread-to-ui64 cast problem.
319 Check for OS/2 in configure.in, in case anyone gets autoconf and
320 such to work right on their OS/2 box.
321 08012002 - Patched win32.c to compile.
322 07302002 - Minor error handling fix (thanks, Alexander!)
323 07292002 - Found some memory leaks, thanks to Valgrind (which rules, btw).
324 Added Russian translations (koi8-r, cp1251, cp866, and iso-8859-5)
325 by Ed Sinjiashvili. Added Spanish translation by Pedro J. Pérez.
326 Debian package support in CVS, thanks to Colin Bayer. French
327 translation by Stéphane Peter.
328 07282002 - macclassic.c now returns human readable error messages instead of
329 ERR_OS_ERROR. Closing files on MacOS no longer fails if the volume
330 info can't be flushed. Minor error message tweak in os2.c. All
331 possible human-readable literal strings (including all those OS/2
332 and MacOS error messages) have moved to constants in
333 physfs_internal.h...this allows the library to be translated to
334 other spoken languages fairly easily.
335 07272002 - Patched the OS/2 code to be useful...works pretty well, now. Added
336 makeos2.cmd for building (not an ideal solution, but oh well).
337 Initialized some variables in zip.c to prevent compiler whining.
338 07262002 - Fixed a typo in documentation. Archivers with matching file
339 extensions are now given first shot at opening an archive, but if
340 they fail, the other archivers are tried. More fixes to zip.c's
341 ZIP_enumerateFiles(). Wrote an OS/2 platform driver based on API
342 specs and a heavy pounding of Google Groups...as I don't have an
343 OS/2 compiler at the moment, it probably doesn't even compile. :)
344 07252002 - configure.in and unix.c now deal with platforms that lack a
345 functional pthread library. Edward Rudd sent in a patch to the RPM
346 specfile to have the build system set the correct version.
347 Clean ups in grp.c, beos.cpp and macclassic.c.
348 07242002 - Rewrote ZIP_enumerate(). Hopefully it sucks less this time.
349 unix.c and configure.in now have the infrastructure to disable
350 the CD-ROM detection code, and use a stub that successfully (and
351 unconditionally) reports no detected discs. Currently this is
352 used on AtheOS (which doesn't have CD-ROM support at the moment
353 anyhow), but it will be useful to get the library up on odd,
354 Unix-like systems that don't use either getmntinfo() or getmntent().
355 07232002 - Cleaned up the cut-and-pastes in the various file enumeration
356 routines and moved it into __PHYSFS_addToLinkedStringList().
357 Tons more ZIP file enhancing. I'm fairly certain it's robust and
358 fast in every reasonable respect, now. GRP archiver now caches
359 the file table...it was generally overhauled like the ZIP driver.
360 Added "ls" as an alias of "enumerate" in test_physfs.
361 I lied about zip.c's robustness; disabled the enumeration code.
362 07212002 - More FreeBSD build system patches. Added some new autoconf spew to
363 .cvsignore. bootstrap now copies the appropriate Makefile.am
364 instead of rename()ing it.
365 07192002 - Cleaned up configure.in and unix.c so that we check by available
366 header to determine the appropriate CD-ROM detection code...this
367 should make this more future-proof (and probably get it building
368 out of the box on other BSD platforms.)
369 07172002 - Fixed seeking backwards in ZIP_seek(). Changed the error message
370 ERR_TOO_MANY_SYMLINKS to ERR_SYMLINK_LOOP. Patches to build system
371 and unix.c for FreeBSD compatibility. Added physfs.spec to
372 "make dist" archives (thanks, Edward Rudd!).
373 07152002 - Symlinks in ZIP archives are detected correctly now, I think.
374 07142002 - Use GetVolumeInformation() instead of GetDiskFreeSpace() in
375 win32.c's mediaInDrive() function. This allows Windows NT 3.x to
376 correctly detect CD-ROM drives. Library now appears to be fully
377 functional on WinNT 3.51...need to try NT 3.1 still. :)
378 Patches to new ZIP code; cleaned up bugs in symlink reading code,
379 but we incorrectly identify some entries as symlinks, which doesn't
380 fly...for now, symlink code is commented out, so symlinks look
381 like regular files (and reading from a symlink entry gives you
382 the link as file data).
383 07122002 - Rewrote the ZIP archiver to no longer use Gilles Vollant's unzip.c
384 code. Losing that abstraction should make the ZIP archiver
385 significantly more efficient, and halved the amount of code used.
386 Plus, being a control freak, I like my coding style more than
387 Gilles's. :) There are still bugs to shake out, but this is good
389 07112002 - configure.in updated to make it happier on newer autoconfs
390 (thanks again, Alexander!). FIXME cleanups.
391 07102002 - Added a byteorder-friendly convenience API, so you can read/write
392 data and convert to the native byteorder without too much effort.
393 Upped version to 0.1.7.
394 Build system corrections for BeOS and Cygwin (thanks, Alexander!).
395 Added RPM specfile for PhysicsFS (thanks, Edward Rudd!).
396 06292002 - Fixed incorrect error message when opening a file for read without
397 defining a search path. LOTS of win32 updates and fixes; lots of
398 things that were broken work now, and we are slowly becoming
399 more compatible with legacy win32 systems. Builds on Cygwin again.
400 All platform drivers (except beos.cpp) had a buffer overflow when
401 detecting mounted CD-ROM drives...it only occurs when a drive is
402 detected, and it probably won't result in your box getting rooted,
403 but upgrade soon anyhow. Readded the .cvsignore files from the old
405 06282002 - Reworked build system _AGAIN_.
406 06222002 - Alexander Pipelka spotted a bug in the file open routines in
408 06152002 - Autoconf build system will now generate shared libraries on BeOS,
409 and (supposedly) Cygwin.
410 06142002 - Rewrote autoconf build system. It now works around the MacOS X bug
411 that prevented shared libraries from building.
412 06112002 - Updated CodeWarrior projects and added them to CVS. _Finally_
413 officially released 0.1.6.
414 06102002 - Major overhauls to platform/win32.c ... should work on all Windows
415 platforms, including 95/98/ME and NT/2K/XP flavors. Someone should
416 see if this builds on WinCE! :) You no longer need the latest
417 platform SDK to build it, either; the questionable DLL is accessed
418 with LoadLibrary() at runtime now, and handled if not present. This
419 now builds correctly on a freshly installed Visual Studio 6.0, and
420 the DLL it builds works everywhere. Plus, a bunch of other bugs
421 and incorrect behaviours were squashed. Visual Studio 6.0 project
423 06082002 - Fixes to __PHYSFS_platformEnumerateFiles() in win32.c: cleaned up
424 memory leak, handles paths more robustly, and prevents possible
425 skipped file entries. Removed AC_C_CONST and AC_TYPE_SIZE_T checks
426 from configure.in (not needed, and they broke BeOS build). Clean
427 out the docs/ directory when doing a "make dist". Fixed crashbug
428 when calling PHYSFS_deinit() more than once in a row. Tried to get
429 MacOS X to build a shared library, gave up; I'm doing something
430 wrong in my Makefile.am, I think. On MacOS X, running ./configure
431 --enable-static --disable-shared works, though. Hopefully someone
432 will fix this soon. In unix.c, the Darwin version of
433 __PHYSFS_platformDetectAvailableCDs() was free()ing a static
435 06072002 - Manpages! Finally installed Doxygen and scratched together a
436 Doxyfile. After some revision to physfs.h, we've got a rather
438 06062002 - Fixed __PHYSFS_platformSeek() in archivers/posix.c. Implemented the
439 getLastModTime method in archivers/zip.c (returns legitimate info)
440 and archivers/grp.c (returns lastmodtime of GRPfile itself in the
441 physical filesystem). Put a 64-bit _llseek() version of the seek()
442 and tell() methods in platform/posix.c, but you need to hack (or
443 rather, fix) configure.in to enable it. From Greg on win32.c: Fixed
444 file enumerator function (needed a wildcard '*' specification), CD
445 enumeration only reports CDs that have media, getLastModTime() has
447 06012002 - Added -Wall to debug builds. Removed ANSI stdio calls from
448 platform/posix.c, and replaced them with actual POSIX calls (that
449 is, fopen() became open(), fseek() became lseek(), etc...)
450 05272002 - Added some explicit casts when calling malloc() in platform/posix.c
451 05252002 - Added John Hall's file modification time patch, and added a
452 getlastmodtime command to test_physfs. Corrected error reporting
453 for missing files a little bit. Changed build system to only try
454 building beos.cpp if on a BeOS system (since we need a C++ compiler
455 available to do so). Implemented getLastModTime in macclassic.c.
456 05242002 - Upped version to 0.1.6 (not officially released yet).
457 05232002 - Fixed the build system to always package the complete source, not
458 just what we built for a given system, when doing a "make dist".
459 Updated INSTALL. Wrote BeOS platform code (platform/beos.cpp).
460 Split unix.c into unix.c and posix.c. Linux and BeOS both share
461 posix.c, although I don't think it's completely POSIX compliant at
462 this point (not that it matters much).
463 05212002 - Cleaned up some FIXMEs.
464 05202002 - Added .cvsignore files.
465 05162002 - Edward Rudd also caught an embarrassing screwup by me in
466 unix.c: the open-for-append call was using "wb+" instead of
467 "ab" when calling fopen(). Doh!
468 05152002 - configure script now deals with systems that have a readline
469 lib, but require it to be linked with curses. Thanks to Edward
471 05102002 - A trimmed-down zlib 1.1.4 is now included in the source distro, for
472 use by win32, MacOS, and Unix systems that don't have it installed
473 on the system. Autoconf support! Initial attempt at this. Lots of
474 stuff may be very broken.
475 05082002 - From Greg: More win32 work. Library is now 95% functional on win32.
476 Only known win32 problem is that the CD drives are reported whether
477 they contain a disc or not).
478 05062002 - From Greg: Win32 boxes without the latest Platform SDK can now
479 #define DISABLE_NT_SUPPORT. Other fixes.
480 04242002 - Updated win32 info in INSTALL to discuss Platform SDK issues.
481 04202002 - Added a (very) quick and (very) dirty http server to the
482 extras directory (public domain), as another example of using
484 04192002 - Corrected some win32 info in INSTALL. Changed Makefile to
485 package releases as .tar.gz instead of .tar.bz2.
486 04122002 - Some win32 cleanups and fixes across several files. Upped
488 04082002 - Fixed problem when calling __PHYSFS_setError before PHYSFS_init.
489 04062002 - Added MacOS info, etc to INSTALL. Patched unix.c and
490 test_physfs.c to compile on Darwin again.
491 04052002 - Added byte ordering API. Byte ordering fixes in grp.c, and some
492 cleanups in unzip.c. Mac work is more or less complete.
493 04042002 - Mac work continues. Almost complete, now. test_physfs now has
494 tests for write, append, and filelength, and most of the
495 commands can tolerate a quoted argument (although this is
496 hacky, it's good enough for these purposes). Upped test_physfs
497 version to 0.1.1. Added a malloc-failure check in the Unix
498 CD-ROM detection code.
499 04032002 - PHYSFS_init always makes sure the calling thread initializes its
500 error state. Win32 codebase is updated with mutex implementation
502 04022002 - Mac work continues. Found a bug where we put a double dir
503 separator in if we had to resort to the fallback userdir (if
504 __PHYSFS_platformGetUserDir() returned NULL to calculateUserDir().
505 Made note of potential infinite recursion in platform driver docs.
506 04012002 - (_NOT_ an April Fool's Joke:) Started working on MacOS Classic
507 port. Added skeleton.c to platform directory. Minor patches to
508 get things compiling on Mac (notably, DirInfo conflicts with
509 a type exposed by MacOS's namespace-polluting API, and some
510 typecasting issues). Found a call to ferror() I had missed in
512 03302002 - Mutexes! PhysicsFS should be thread safe now, so long as you
513 don't try to do something like close a file at the same time as
514 you are reading from it in another thread. All reasonable race
515 conditions should now be gone, but the new code will need some
516 eyeballing before we install it on life support systems or anything.
517 The mutex abstraction is implemented in unix.c, win32.c will be
519 03292002 - Fixed a potential problem in ZIP_realpath() and some byte order
520 issues in zip.c. Converted unzip.c to use physfs file i/o
521 abstractions. Converted CHANGELOG to list latest entries first.
522 03242002 - Added __PHYSFS_platformInit() and __PHYSFS_platformDeinit(). Win32
523 improvements by Gregory S. Read. Added PHYSFS_[us]int(8|16|32)
524 types...this breaks binary compatibility with previous PhysicsFS
525 releases! Added platform specific i/o functions, so we don't have
526 to rely on stdio anymore. Updated TODO with my comments on the
527 physfs mailing list. 1.0, here we come! Removed race condition from
528 grp.c and converted to file i/o abstraction layer calls from stdio.
529 Tons of other fixes and enhancements.
530 03202002 - Patched platform/win32.c to compile.
531 03152002 - PHYSFS_setSaneConfig() now handles failure to set the write dir
532 better. Patched makefile to link the test program. Changed all the
533 "write" functions to get data from a "const" buffer. Added an
534 "extras" dir, which currently contains PhysFS->SDL_RWops glue code.
535 03052002 - Made unix.c's timeslice implementation more portable, and added a
536 Darwin-specific means to detect CDs (thanks to Patrick Stein).
537 Minor cleanup in win32.c (changed "for (; condition ;)" into
538 "while (condition)" ...)
539 11142001 - Removed a redundant error check in platform/win32.c
540 10092001 - Syntax fixes in dir.c, a FIXME in grp.c, and a "cat" command in
541 the test program. Apparently I had accidentally removed a rather
542 crucial line from dir.c a few revisions ago, and no one noticed. :(
543 Fixed. The win32 userdir will default to the base dir, now.
544 09252001 - Changed API: PHYSFS_setSaneConfig() takes an organization name, and
545 sets up less directories. Be warned. Fixes from David Hedbor:
546 make setSaneConfig() set write directory correctly if it had to
547 create the directory, and make sure that the writing functions
548 get used in dir.c when a file is opened for writing/appending.
550 09142001 - David Hedbor submitted a patch to handle a case where the
551 current working directory has been deleted out from under the
552 process (both in platform/unix.c and physfs.c itself). Thanks,
553 David! Added a CREDITS file. Changed the format of the author field
554 in PHYSFS_ArchiveInfo to put the email address between "<>" instead
555 of "()" chars. Updated TODO. make install now deletes previous
556 revisions of the library. Changed version to 0.1.4.
557 09012001 - Happy September. Moved the Visual C project files and the zlib
558 source to a separate download. Look for it at
559 http://icculus.org/physfs/downloads/physfs-win32-support.zip ...
560 Updated the INSTALL doc for Win32 building. Rewrote win32.c's
561 __PHYSFS_platformRealPath() to not rely on Visual C's runtime lib,
562 which was the last Cygwin incompatibility (although the Makefile
563 needs to be updated to build a DLL under Cygwin). Tinkered with the
564 Makefile a little, but it needs more work. Started working on a
565 MacOS version. All I have is CodeWarrior 4, which is way out of
566 date, and (for what is supposed to be an ultra-user-friendly
567 environment) is completely uninituitive to me. Still, managed to
568 get most everything compiling, which improved the quality of the
569 code somewhat). Haven't tried to compile the zipfile support, and
570 I still can't link the library. Dunno what the hell I'm supposed
571 to do there. Isn't Unix supposed to be hard compared to this?
572 08312001 - Built PhysicsFS on Mandrake 8.0 for the PowerPC. Compiles clean,
573 but there's at least one byte-ordering issue in zip.c that needs
575 08292001 - win32.c calculates the base dir with GetModuleFileName() first, now,
576 and falls back to SearchPath() if there were problems. Changed an
577 occurence of _MAX_PATH to MAX_PATH, so both CygWin and Visual C can
579 08282001 - win32.c now checks HOMEDRIVE, HOMEPATH, and HOME when calculating
580 the userdir. Added include files that make it a little closer to
581 compiling under Cygwin. Added a TODO file. Fixed unix.c's
582 __PHYSFS_platformCalcBaseDir() so that it actually works. Fixed
583 Makefile so that it links the test program properly.
584 Changed version to 0.1.3.
585 08232001 - Fixed a potential free()ing of a NULL pointer in
586 __PHYSFS_platformEnumerateFiles() in platform/unix.c. Added
587 platform/win32.c. Other cleanups to get this compiling with
588 Visual C and CygWin. Added BAIL_MACRO for times when we were doing
589 BAIL_IF_MACRO(1, ...). Abstracted mkdir() in the platform drivers.
590 Added GRP setting output to showcfg in the Makefile. Updated INSTALL
591 with license info and Win32 build instructions. Dependency on the
592 readline library in test_physfs.c is now optional.
593 Changed version to 0.1.2.
594 08072001 - Changed version to 0.1.1.
595 08062001 - Added CD-ROM detection code to the unix platform driver.
596 08012001 - Added a safety memset in error setting, fixed URLs and email addr.
597 07282001 - Initial release.
