/*

* CHANGELOG.

*/

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

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

Rudd for the patch.

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.

04242002 - Updated win32 info in INSTALL to discuss Platform SDK issues.

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

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

the library.

04192002 - Corrected some win32 info in INSTALL. Changed Makefile to

package releases as .tar.gz instead of .tar.bz2.

04122002 - Some win32 cleanups and fixes across several files. Upped

version to 0.1.5.

04082002 - Fixed problem when calling __PHYSFS_setError before PHYSFS_init.

04062002 - Added MacOS info, etc to INSTALL. Patched unix.c and

test_physfs.c to compile on Darwin again.

04052002 - Added byte ordering API. Byte ordering fixes in grp.c, and some

cleanups in unzip.c. Mac work is more or less complete.

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.

04032002 - PHYSFS_init always makes sure the calling thread initializes its

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.

03302002 - Mutexes! PhysicsFS should be thread safe now, so long as you

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.

Tons of other fixes and enhancements.

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.
