/*

* CHANGELOG.

*/

01042003 - Added a hack for dealing with OSX bundles and newer PBProjects

(thanks, Eric Wing!). Added some missing files to "make dist".

Fixed minor Doxygen typo in PHYSFS_flush() docs. Upped version to

0.1.8.

12012002 - Minor fix to configure.in: reported --enable-debug's default

setting incorrectly. Added buffering to the API: you can now

buffer a file with PHYSFS_setBuffer(), and flush the buffer to

disk with PHYSFS_flush(). PhysicsFS file handles are unbuffered

by default (as they were before this API addition), so this does

not break the API. Other fixes for bugs I stumbled upon during

this work are in CVS, too.

10222002 - Fixed segfault in test_physfs.c when user hits CTRL-D (and

readline() thus returns NULL)...now gracefully exits, as it should.

10142002 - Added check for AMD's x86-64 ("Hammer") architecture when

determining platform byte order.

09232002 - Happy September. Updated VC++6 project files, fixed some

VC++ compile nags (more work to be done in zip.c).

08302002 - Cleaned tab stops out of zip.c, and fixed a possible infinite loop

in zip_find_entry().

08292002 - Added a physfs/stdio wrapper header to the "extras" dir,

compliments of Adam D. Moss (file is "abs-file.h").

zip.c now works correctly when PhysicsFS is disallowing symlinks.

A few minor optimizations in zip.c, with a few more to come later.

Added VS.NET project files to CVS.

08222002 - Fixed ZIP_exists() to work with directories. Now breaks out of

__PHYSFS_verifySecurity() early if a path element is missing

(since all the others will be, too)...this check is only done

if symlinks are disabled, but we might as well save easy cycles

where we can.

08212002 - Did a couple tedious-for-small-rewards cleanups, optimizations,

corrections and streamlinings I've been meaning to do. Touched a

lot of code. One of the side results is that ZIP_isDirectory()

got fixed.

08192002 - Generalized sorting routines, moved them into physfs.c and removed

the multiple copies from the various archivers. Adding profiling

code (currently only for sort routines)...enable it with

--enable-profiling in the configure script. Fixed incorrect

behaviours in configure.in.

08162002 - Fixed QPAK archiver, since I broke it (sorry!). Also fixed a

qpak memory leak.

Made (successful?) attempt to fix pthread-to-ui64 cast problem.

Check for OS/2 in configure.in, in case anyone gets autoconf and

such to work right on their OS/2 box.

Added Russian translations (koi8-r, cp1251, cp866, and iso-8859-5)

by Ed Sinjiashvili. Added Spanish translation by Pedro J. Pérez.

Debian package support in CVS, thanks to Colin Bayer. French

translation by Stéphane Peter.

ERR_OS_ERROR. Closing files on MacOS no longer fails if the volume

info can't be flushed. Minor error message tweak in os2.c. All

possible human-readable literal strings (including all those OS/2

and MacOS error messages) have moved to constants in

physfs_internal.h...this allows the library to be translated to

07262002 - Fixed a typo in documentation. Archivers with matching file

extensions are now given first shot at opening an archive, but if

ZIP_enumerateFiles(). Wrote an OS/2 platform driver based on API

specs and a heavy pounding of Google Groups...as I don't have an

OS/2 compiler at the moment, it probably doesn't even compile. :)

07252002 - configure.in and unix.c now deal with platforms that lack a

functional pthread library. Edward Rudd sent in a patch to the RPM

specfile to have the build system set the correct version.

unix.c and configure.in now have the infrastructure to disable

the CD-ROM detection code, and use a stub that successfully (and

unconditionally) reports no detected discs. Currently this is

used on AtheOS (which doesn't have CD-ROM support at the moment

anyhow), but it will be useful to get the library up on odd,

Unix-like systems that don't use either getmntinfo() or getmntent().

07232002 - Cleaned up the cut-and-pastes in the various file enumeration

routines and moved it into __PHYSFS_addToLinkedStringList().

Tons more ZIP file enhancing. I'm fairly certain it's robust and

fast in every reasonable respect, now. GRP archiver now caches

the file table...it was generally overhauled like the ZIP driver.

.cvsignore. bootstrap now copies the appropriate Makefile.am

instead of rename()ing it.

07192002 - Cleaned up configure.in and unix.c so that we check by available

header to determine the appropriate CD-ROM detection code...this

should make this more future-proof (and probably get it building

out of the box on other BSD platforms.)

and unix.c for FreeBSD compatibility. Added physfs.spec to

"make dist" archives (thanks, Edward Rudd!).

07142002 - Use GetVolumeInformation() instead of GetDiskFreeSpace() in

win32.c's mediaInDrive() function. This allows Windows NT 3.x to

correctly detect CD-ROM drives. Library now appears to be fully

functional on WinNT 3.51...need to try NT 3.1 still. :)

Patches to new ZIP code; cleaned up bugs in symlink reading code,

but we incorrectly identify some entries as symlinks, which doesn't

fly...for now, symlink code is commented out, so symlinks look

like regular files (and reading from a symlink entry gives you

the link as file data).

07122002 - Rewrote the ZIP archiver to no longer use Gilles Vollant's unzip.c

code. Losing that abstraction should make the ZIP archiver

significantly more efficient, and halved the amount of code used.

Plus, being a control freak, I like my coding style more than

Gilles's. :) There are still bugs to shake out, but this is good

progress.

07102002 - Added a byteorder-friendly convenience API, so you can read/write

data and convert to the native byteorder without too much effort.

Upped version to 0.1.7.

Build system corrections for BeOS and Cygwin (thanks, Alexander!).

Added RPM specfile for PhysicsFS (thanks, Edward Rudd!).

06292002 - Fixed incorrect error message when opening a file for read without

defining a search path. LOTS of win32 updates and fixes; lots of

things that were broken work now, and we are slowly becoming

more compatible with legacy win32 systems. Builds on Cygwin again.

All platform drivers (except beos.cpp) had a buffer overflow when

detecting mounted CD-ROM drives...it only occurs when a drive is

detected, and it probably won't result in your box getting rooted,

but upgrade soon anyhow. Readded the .cvsignore files from the old

build system.

06222002 - Alexander Pipelka spotted a bug in the file open routines in

posix.c; patched.

06152002 - Autoconf build system will now generate shared libraries on BeOS,

and (supposedly) Cygwin.

06142002 - Rewrote autoconf build system. It now works around the MacOS X bug

that prevented shared libraries from building.

06112002 - Updated CodeWarrior projects and added them to CVS. _Finally_

officially released 0.1.6.

06102002 - Major overhauls to platform/win32.c ... should work on all Windows

platforms, including 95/98/ME and NT/2K/XP flavors. Someone should

see if this builds on WinCE! :) You no longer need the latest

platform SDK to build it, either; the questionable DLL is accessed

with LoadLibrary() at runtime now, and handled if not present. This

now builds correctly on a freshly installed Visual Studio 6.0, and

and incorrect behaviours were squashed. Visual Studio 6.0 project

file added to CVS.

06082002 - Fixes to __PHYSFS_platformEnumerateFiles() in win32.c: cleaned up

memory leak, handles paths more robustly, and prevents possible

skipped file entries. Removed AC_C_CONST and AC_TYPE_SIZE_T checks

from configure.in (not needed, and they broke BeOS build). Clean

out the docs/ directory when doing a "make dist". Fixed crashbug

when calling PHYSFS_deinit() more than once in a row. Tried to get

MacOS X to build a shared library, gave up; I'm doing something

wrong in my Makefile.am, I think. On MacOS X, running ./configure

--enable-static --disable-shared works, though. Hopefully someone

will fix this soon. In unix.c, the Darwin version of

__PHYSFS_platformDetectAvailableCDs() was free()ing a static

buffer; fixed.

06072002 - Manpages! Finally installed Doxygen and scratched together a

Doxyfile. After some revision to physfs.h, we've got a rather

nice API reference.

getLastModTime method in archivers/zip.c (returns legitimate info)

and archivers/grp.c (returns lastmodtime of GRPfile itself in the

physical filesystem). Put a 64-bit _llseek() version of the seek()

and tell() methods in platform/posix.c, but you need to hack (or

rather, fix) configure.in to enable it. From Greg on win32.c: Fixed

file enumerator function (needed a wildcard '*' specification), CD

enumeration only reports CDs that have media, getLastModTime() has

been implemented.

06012002 - Added -Wall to debug builds. Removed ANSI stdio calls from

platform/posix.c, and replaced them with actual POSIX calls (that

is, fopen() became open(), fseek() became lseek(), etc...)

05252002 - Added John Hall's file modification time patch, and added a

getlastmodtime command to test_physfs. Corrected error reporting

for missing files a little bit. Changed build system to only try

building beos.cpp if on a BeOS system (since we need a C++ compiler

Updated INSTALL. Wrote BeOS platform code (platform/beos.cpp).

Split unix.c into unix.c and posix.c. Linux and BeOS both share

posix.c, although I don't think it's completely POSIX compliant at

this point (not that it matters much).

05202002 - Added .cvsignore files.

05162002 - Edward Rudd also caught an embarrassing screwup by me in

unix.c: the open-for-append call was using "wb+" instead of

"ab" when calling fopen(). Doh!

05152002 - configure script now deals with systems that have a readline

lib, but require it to be linked with curses. Thanks to Edward

05102002 - A trimmed-down zlib 1.1.4 is now included in the source distro, for

use by win32, MacOS, and Unix systems that don't have it installed

on the system. Autoconf support! Initial attempt at this. Lots of

stuff may be very broken.

05082002 - From Greg: More win32 work. Library is now 95% functional on win32.

Only known win32 problem is that the CD drives are reported whether

they contain a disc or not).

05062002 - From Greg: Win32 boxes without the latest Platform SDK can now

#define DISABLE_NT_SUPPORT. Other fixes.

04202002 - Added a (very) quick and (very) dirty http server to the

extras directory (public domain), as another example of using

the library.

04042002 - Mac work continues. Almost complete, now. test_physfs now has

tests for write, append, and filelength, and most of the

commands can tolerate a quoted argument (although this is

hacky, it's good enough for these purposes). Upped test_physfs

version to 0.1.1. Added a malloc-failure check in the Unix

CD-ROM detection code.

error state. Win32 codebase is updated with mutex implementation

(thanks, Greg!).

04022002 - Mac work continues. Found a bug where we put a double dir

separator in if we had to resort to the fallback userdir (if

__PHYSFS_platformGetUserDir() returned NULL to calculateUserDir().

Made note of potential infinite recursion in platform driver docs.

04012002 - (_NOT_ an April Fool's Joke:) Started working on MacOS Classic

port. Added skeleton.c to platform directory. Minor patches to

get things compiling on Mac (notably, DirInfo conflicts with

a type exposed by MacOS's namespace-polluting API, and some

typecasting issues). Found a call to ferror() I had missed in

unzip.c.

don't try to do something like close a file at the same time as

you are reading from it in another thread. All reasonable race

conditions should now be gone, but the new code will need some

eyeballing before we install it on life support systems or anything.

The mutex abstraction is implemented in unix.c, win32.c will be

updated shortly.

03292002 - Fixed a potential problem in ZIP_realpath() and some byte order

issues in zip.c. Converted unzip.c to use physfs file i/o

abstractions. Converted CHANGELOG to list latest entries first.

03242002 - Added __PHYSFS_platformInit() and __PHYSFS_platformDeinit(). Win32

improvements by Gregory S. Read. Added PHYSFS_[us]int(8|16|32)

types...this breaks binary compatibility with previous PhysicsFS

releases! Added platform specific i/o functions, so we don't have

to rely on stdio anymore. Updated TODO with my comments on the

physfs mailing list. 1.0, here we come! Removed race condition from

grp.c and converted to file i/o abstraction layer calls from stdio.

03202002 - Patched platform/win32.c to compile.

03152002 - PHYSFS_setSaneConfig() now handles failure to set the write dir

better. Patched makefile to link the test program. Changed all the

"write" functions to get data from a "const" buffer. Added an

"extras" dir, which currently contains PhysFS->SDL_RWops glue code.

03052002 - Made unix.c's timeslice implementation more portable, and added a

Darwin-specific means to detect CDs (thanks to Patrick Stein).

Minor cleanup in win32.c (changed "for (; condition ;)" into

"while (condition)" ...)

11142001 - Removed a redundant error check in platform/win32.c

10092001 - Syntax fixes in dir.c, a FIXME in grp.c, and a "cat" command in

the test program. Apparently I had accidentally removed a rather

crucial line from dir.c a few revisions ago, and no one noticed. :(

Fixed. The win32 userdir will default to the base dir, now.

09252001 - Changed API: PHYSFS_setSaneConfig() takes an organization name, and

sets up less directories. Be warned. Fixes from David Hedbor:

make setSaneConfig() set write directory correctly if it had to

create the directory, and make sure that the writing functions

get used in dir.c when a file is opened for writing/appending.

Updated CREDITS.

09142001 - David Hedbor submitted a patch to handle a case where the

current working directory has been deleted out from under the

process (both in platform/unix.c and physfs.c itself). Thanks,

David! Added a CREDITS file. Changed the format of the author field

in PHYSFS_ArchiveInfo to put the email address between "<>" instead

of "()" chars. Updated TODO. make install now deletes previous

revisions of the library. Changed version to 0.1.4.

09012001 - Happy September. Moved the Visual C project files and the zlib

source to a separate download. Look for it at

http://icculus.org/physfs/downloads/physfs-win32-support.zip ...

Updated the INSTALL doc for Win32 building. Rewrote win32.c's

__PHYSFS_platformRealPath() to not rely on Visual C's runtime lib,

which was the last Cygwin incompatibility (although the Makefile

needs to be updated to build a DLL under Cygwin). Tinkered with the

Makefile a little, but it needs more work. Started working on a

MacOS version. All I have is CodeWarrior 4, which is way out of

date, and (for what is supposed to be an ultra-user-friendly

environment) is completely uninituitive to me. Still, managed to

get most everything compiling, which improved the quality of the

code somewhat). Haven't tried to compile the zipfile support, and

I still can't link the library. Dunno what the hell I'm supposed

to do there. Isn't Unix supposed to be hard compared to this?

08312001 - Built PhysicsFS on Mandrake 8.0 for the PowerPC. Compiles clean,

but there's at least one byte-ordering issue in zip.c that needs

to be fixed.

08292001 - win32.c calculates the base dir with GetModuleFileName() first, now,

and falls back to SearchPath() if there were problems. Changed an

occurence of _MAX_PATH to MAX_PATH, so both CygWin and Visual C can

handle it.

08282001 - win32.c now checks HOMEDRIVE, HOMEPATH, and HOME when calculating

the userdir. Added include files that make it a little closer to

compiling under Cygwin. Added a TODO file. Fixed unix.c's

__PHYSFS_platformCalcBaseDir() so that it actually works. Fixed

Makefile so that it links the test program properly.

Changed version to 0.1.3.

08232001 - Fixed a potential free()ing of a NULL pointer in

__PHYSFS_platformEnumerateFiles() in platform/unix.c. Added

platform/win32.c. Other cleanups to get this compiling with

Visual C and CygWin. Added BAIL_MACRO for times when we were doing

BAIL_IF_MACRO(1, ...). Abstracted mkdir() in the platform drivers.

Added GRP setting output to showcfg in the Makefile. Updated INSTALL

with license info and Win32 build instructions. Dependency on the

readline library in test_physfs.c is now optional.

Changed version to 0.1.2.

08072001 - Changed version to 0.1.1.

08062001 - Added CD-ROM detection code to the unix platform driver.

08012001 - Added a safety memset in error setting, fixed URLs and email addr.

07282001 - Initial release.
