- * CHANGELOG.
- */
+
+The changelog is no longer maintained by hand. It made sense to have a single
+ timeline when we were using CVS, but modern revision control tools make this
+ redundant, at best.
-11022008 - iPhone support (thanks, Christian!). Added struct typedefs that
- are friendlier to predeclaring and fixed example in docs (thanks,
- Olivier!).
-04032008 - Fixed PHYSFS_openAppend() to work as documented on Unix.
-03122008 - Fixed aliasing bug in Windows platform layer (thanks, Dennis!).
-03102008 - Changed some text files from ISO-8859-1 to UTF-8. Replaced all the
- translations with UTF-8 encoded equivalents.
-03082008 - Fixed compiler warnings in Windows platform layer (thanks, Dennis!).
-02202008 - Various archiver swap and compare functions now check if they are
- swapping/comparing an item against itself, for efficiency and
- to prevent overlapping memcpy() calls.
-02132008 - Minor Windows fix (thanks, fydo!).
-02012008 - lzma fixes (thanks, eH!).
-01222008 - Upgraded lzma sdk, lzma.c improvements (thanks, Dennis!).
- Added zlib README, and updated LICENSE.txt.
-01212008 - Fixed HTTP header in physfshttpd.c. Fixed utf-8 to UCS-2 allocation
- size in Windows code.
-12112007 - Fixed incorrect directory test in Windows code (thanks, Buginator!).
-10012007 - More mingw32 fixes.
-07122007 - Maybe fixed compile on mingw32.
-07112007 - Fixed crash on zero-byte read/write (thanks, Ensiform!).
-05272007 - FIXME removal: Replaced a strncpy() with a memcpy().
-05112007 - Minor documentation correction.
-05052007 - Fixed zip archiver: could do bogus seek if a small, non-zip file
- got put through isArchive().
-04292007 - Minor const correctness tweak in zip archiver.
-04032007 - Added a "make dist" target for packing up source code releases.
- Reverted Unix recursive mutex code. There were some portability
- issues I didn't anticipate. Upped version to 1.1.1!
-04022007 - Added wxWidgets-based test program (incomplete). Filled in and
- corrected some Doxygen comments.
-04012007 - Added PHYSFS_isInit() and PHYSFS_symbolicLinksPermitted() functions.
-03312007 - Added a quick'n'dirty unpack utility to the extras directory. Moved
- DIR archiver to start of the list, so we don't have to have every
- other archiver fail to open a directory as a file before mounting
- it. Fixed typos in makeos2.cmd and the Doxygen comments. Added
- symlink support to windows.c for use on Vista-based systems.
-03282007 - Logic bug in MVL/HOG/GRP archivers: only enumerated files when
- looking in a directory other than the root, instead of enumerating
- only for the root (thanks, Chris!). Minor fix for compilers that
- don't like the BAIL_* macros with an empty argument
- (thanks, Chris!)
-03262007 - Tons of Unicode work in windows.c ... should now use UCS-2 on
- NT/XP/Vista/etc versions of the OS, and fallback to "ANSI" versions
- for 95/98/ME, tapdancing around the system codepage if it has to.
- Since the Unicode entry points are dynamically loaded, it won't
- have issues with missing symbols on Win9x, nor does it need to be
- built separately with #define UNICODE (although it will work the
- same with or without this define, as it doesn't use TCHARs or
- the non-[WA] versions of APIs. Other minor Windows cleanups and
- corrections.
-03252007 - Improved dynamic loader and initial Unicode work in windows.c ...
-03242007 - Replaced BeOS semaphores with BLockers for the mutex implementation.
- It's much simpler, it has "benaphores" built in behind the scenes
- for faster performance, and it's recursive...also, we were
- previously setting the PhysicsFS error state if BeOS mutex grabbing
- failed (a big no no!), and that's now fixed. Good wins all around.
-03222007 - Replaced some Malloc and all the alloca() calls with
- __PHYSFS_smallAlloc(), which will stack allocate small (128 or
- less bytes) blocks and Malloc the rest...naturally these now have
- to be paired with __PHYSFS_smallFree() calls, so you can't be as
- lazy as a basic alloca() would let you be. The benefit is both less
- malloc pressure for those temporary allocations and better stack
- overflow safety (so if some jerk tries to push a 78 megabyte string
- through the library as a filename, we won't try to strcpy it to
- the stack). Hopefully some internal interfaces can now get
- refactored to stop generating heap pointers and let the caller use
- smallAlloc to further reduce malloc pressure.
-03212007 - Replaced LONGLONGLITERAL with __PHYSFS_UI64/__PHYSFS_SI64 ...
-03202007 - Removed platform/skeleton.c (it was out of date), added
- platform/macosx.c (To further Macify the code and get the #ifdefs
- out of unix.c), and refactored the platform layer to try and
- make the unix/posix/macosx/beos sources try to find a split that
- works. Moved the platform allocators to physfs.c, since all but
- Mac OS X were using malloc()...there's now an interface for the
- platform to supply a custom allocator if they don't want the malloc
- version. Removed __PHYSFS_platformTimeslice(), as it's no longer
- being used. Replaced manual management of pthread mutexes with
- PTHREAD_MUTEX_RECURSIVE attribute...let's see what platforms
- throw up on that. Handled documentation comment FIXME in physfs.h.
-03192007 - Fixed two switched strings in CMakeLists.txt ... patch to compile
- with latest Windows Platform SDK. Explicitly check for NULL in
- PHYSFS_init() when we can't go on without a real string here.
- Removed ANSI-C workaround for missing lstat() nonsense in posix.c
- (POSIX != ANSI, time to give up here). Try to use /proc/self/exe
- to find the base dir on Unix, so we can do without argv[0] on
- systems with a Linux-like /proc filesystem.
-03162007 - Changed PHYSFS_file from a typedef to a #define (in case it would
- cause an aggressive compiler to think you're passing the wrong type
- to a function) and added Doxygen comments to explain it.
-03152007 - Bunch of work on Unicode...added case-folding stricmp, removed
- platform-specific stricmp implementations, changed appropriate
- calls to an ASCII-only stricmp that ignores locale. Fixed case on
- UTF-8 API entry points.
-03142007 - Dropped classic Mac OS support. It's just too hard to find a working
- Mac OS 9 install and reasonable development tools, so it's not
- worth it. If you still target OS 8 or 9, please use PhysicsFS 1.0.
-03112007 - Removed zlib_license_change.txt ... it's in Subversion and the 1.0
- branch for history's sake. Added shared and static build options
- to CMakeLists.txt, and the expected "make install" target.
- Renamed some FILENAME files to FILENAME.txt, removed physfs.rc.
- Now compiles everything whether we need it or not, removing whole
- files with #ifdefs...this will make it easier to "embed" this
- library in other projects or use a different build system: just
- push everything through the compiler with preprocessor defines for
- the parts you want/need...platform modules are determined
- automatically without the build system needing to intervene, so you
- just have to #define the archivers, etc that you want.
- Updated makeos2.cmd for newer Innotek toolchain (thanks, Dave!)
-03082007 - Fixed a comment in physfs.h. Renamed win32.c to windows.c.
- Cleaned up whitespace/formatting in pocketpc.c. Updated PocketPC
- code to expect UTF-8 strings from the higher level. Changed
- PHYSFS_SUPPORTS_LZMA to PHYSFS_SUPPORTS_7Z. Killed some #ifdefs
- in physfs.c. Moved to CMake...so long, autotools! Killed MIX
- archiver, too.
-11052006 - More 7zip archiver work (thanks, Dennis!). Initial Unicode work.
- Minor BeOS realpath tweak.
-09272006 - Reworked 7zip archiver (thanks, Dennis!).
-09232006 - Fixed typo in doxygen comment.
-04112006 - Added LZMA archiver...7zip support (thanks, Dennis!).
-03232006 - Added -fvisibility for gcc4 (http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/Visibility)
-01012006 - Cleaned up overflow checks in platform memory allocators (thanks to
- Nicolas Lebedenco for pointing out the original issue with
- long long literals). Added physfs.rc (thanks, Dennis!). Changed my
- email address. Removed acconfig.h.
-11282005 - Corrected docs on PHYSFS_setWriteDir().
-10122005 - Fixed locateInStringList() in physfs.c (thanks, Matze!). Patched
- archivers/wad.c to compile.
-09192005 - Make unix mutexes recursive above pthread layer...fixes deadlock on
- MacOS X, for now.
-09182005 - API BREAKAGE: PHYSFS_enumerateFilesCallback() now passes the
- original directory name back to the app in the callback. This
- API was only in 1.1.0, and wasn't promised to be stable at this
- point. Please update your apps! Cleaned out a FIXME in file
- enumeration that would confuse the library under certain
- circumstances.
-09092005 - Some tweaks to PHYSFS_Allocator. Apparently configure.in doesn't
- work like I thought for version bumps, so it thinks 1.1.0 isn't
- binary compatible with 1.0...fixed, I think.
-09062005 - Happy September. Changed the allocation abstraction to use
- PHYSFS_uint64 instead of size_t, so we don't have to include
- system headers inside physfs.h. Minor MingW fixes (but it's still
- broken, I think).
-08202005 - Fixed bug in verifyPath() that was breaking PHYSFS_setSaneConfig()
- and other corner cases.
-07242005 - Patched to compile on BeOS.
-07232005 - Fixed bug in zip archiver (thanks, Jörg Walter!).
- More minor OS/2 tweaks. Updated zlib to 1.2.3, which properly
- includes the security fix. Fixed "make dist" to handle .svn dirs
- and other file changes. Removed "debian" directory. Allow a mount
- point of NULL to be "/", per the documentation. Fixed warning in
- physfs.c. Assert definition fix. Updated CWProjects.sit.
- Upped version to 1.1.0 ... first release of 1.1 dev branch!
-07212005 - Patched to compile on OS/2 again.
-07132005 - Updated zlib to 1.2.2, and patched it for this security hole:
- http://www.cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CAN-2005-2096
-06122005 - Added support for mingw to Unix build process (thanks, Matze!).
-03162005 - Added missing translation and Portuguese support (thanks, Danny!).
- MPW support and several MacOS Classic fixes (thanks, Chris!).
- Changed CWProjects from SITX to SIT format, so OS9 users can
- unpack it.
-03132005 - More mount work, added PHYSFS_getMountPoint() and more cleanups.
- Replaced all the C runtime allocations with PhysFS allocation hooks.
- Added pocketpc.c to EXTRA_DIST. Added allocation hooks to some
- platform drivers. Updated Mac Classic build.
-03122005 - Added evil GOTO_*_MACRO_* macros. Fixed unix.c to compile again on
- MacOS X. Added PHYSFS_mount() (thanks, Philip!). Cleaned up the
- INSTALL and CREDITS files a little. Split off start of
- verifySecurity() into a path sanitizer and changed entry points to
- sanitize input paths into a stack-allocated buffer before further
- processing. This removes the need for a malloc() for almost all
- file system operations, and generally cleaned things up. Added a
- "mount" command to test_physfs. Other general cleanups.
-02152005 - Minor comment fix in platform/pocketpc.c
-01052005 - Fixed HOG archiver file lookup (thanks, Chris!)
-12162004 - Fixed some documentation/header comment typos (thanks, Gaetan!)
-10302004 - Fixed a strcpy that should have been a strcat. (thanks, Tolga!)
- Build system respects external CFLAGS now. (thanks, Adam!)
- Fixed infinite loop in new enumeration code. (thanks, Adam!)
-10062004 - Removed profiling code from physfs.c.
-09292004 - Every API that can return a list of strings can now use a
- callback mechanism if the application wants to do it's own
- allocation or handling on a per-item basis. The guts of those
- APIs that create string lists now use the callbacks themselves to
- build the lists, too. The callback functionality goes all the way
- down to the archivers and platform drivers where appropriate, which
- cleans things up and simplifies some internal tasks very nicely.
- Got rid of all the annoying forward declarations in all the
- archivers and moved their PHYSFS_Archiver data to the end of the
- file, since this was annoying me and I was getting sick of updating
- function signatures in two places when the internal API changed.
- Removed the code/data for LinkedStringLists...it isn't used anymore
- now that the callback code is in place.
-09262004 - Did the same thing to FileHandles than I did to DirHandles, but
- this triggered massive tweaking in physfs.c. A lot of code got
- little cleanups, which was nice. Less malloc pressure, too, since
- opening a file used to allocate a ton of crap and mush it
- together...now it's basically down to one structure and the
- instance data in whatever archiver. Minor varname tweak in win32.c
- and pocketpc.c. Changed PHYSFS_file to PHYSFS_File to match the
- rest of the API's naming scheme (but put a typedef for source
- compatibility).
-09252004 - Cleaned up archiver interface to not deal with DirHandles anymore,
- which simplifies things, removes some responsibility and code
- duplication from the archivers, and trims some malloc pressure.
- Ripped up the allocation hook code a little. We'll try to screw
- with memory locking later, since it makes everything ugly and
- complex. Oh well.
-09232004 - Started adding allocation hooks.
-09222004 - Happy September. Added Spanish translation back in.
-04092004 - Added MIX support for legacy Westwood titles (Thanks, Sebastian!).
- Made bootstrap script MacOSX-friendly. Moved byteorder defines into
- physfs_internal.h ...
-01152003 - Added Portuguese (Brazil) translation (Thanks, Danny!)

---- This is where the 1.1 development branch starts. ---
-
-12292003 - Updated CodeWarrior projects from CW6 to CW7, and made a bunch of
- patches to get the Mac Classic target building again. Removed
- zlib114 from CVS repository. Updated OS/2 build batch file.
- Added Z_PREFIX define to Unix builds that use internal zlib.
- Patched up some (outdated?) Visual C project files for zlib121.
- Patched Doxyfile and physfs.h for newer Doxygen. Fixed OS/2
- build script. Tweaked Project Builder files to at least compile.
- Added some last minute BeOS and Cygwin build fixes. Updated
- Visual Studio projects and tweaked some Makefile.am crap. Made
- changes so Visual Studio files would pack with DOS endlines and...
- Upped version to 1.0.0 (woohoo!).
-12222003 - Fixed a search-and-replace mistake in win32.c that preventing
- compiling on Windows. (thanks, Brian!) Converted VC6 .dsp to use
- zlib121; made Z_PREFIX=1 enabled by default to avoid link clashes;
- put zlib files in separate logical folder in .dsp project; updated
- zlib121/zconf.h to address remaining symbols that were still
- causing link warnings.
-12182003 - WAD archiver now puts maps into subdirectories, making them
- accessible to the application. (Thanks, Travis!) RPM spec and
- Makefile.am* now package zlib_license_change.txt (Thanks, Edward!)
-12142003 - Added Doom WAD support (Thanks, Travis!)
-12082003 - Fixed some win32.c deficiencies that Robby Dermody pointed
- out (thanks!)
-12072003 - Upgraded internal zlib to 1.2.1 (thanks, Adam!) Other
- Unix build fixes.
-11112003 - Patches to make OS/2 support compile again.
-11092003 - Added __PHYSFS_platformStrnicmp(), and made qpak.c case-insensitive.
-09122003 - Happy September. Actually released current tree as 0.1.9.
-08262003 - Added MiNT support to build process and fixed cross-compiling
- (thanks Patrice Mandin!)
-08092003 - Some Windows build fixes (thanks, Brian Hook!)
-07232003 - Upped version to 0.1.9.
-07202003 - Switched to zlib license (see new LICENSE text in root of source
- tree, and zlib_license_switch.txt for details). Had to remove
- archivers/qpak.c, the Ruby bindings from the extras directory, and
- the Russian and Spanish translations, since those contributors
- couldn't be contacted. If they show up, we'll readd them to the
- project, otherwise we'll eventually replace their work...everyone
- else signed on for the change. Committed a patch to convert all
- tabs to spaces (Thanks, James!). Added patch to zip.c to fix
- crash (thanks, dillo!). Reimplmented qpak.c, by welding together
- bits of grp.c and zip.c. Ed contacted me, so I could readd his
- contributions post-license change...I'm going to keep the new
- qpak.c, but I've readded his Ruby bindings and Russian translations.
-06112003 - Patches to globbing.c to handle corner cases (thanks, Bradley!).
-06102003 - Added globbing.c to "extras" directory.
-05232003 - Rewrote MacOSX/Darwin CD-ROM detection code to use IOKit, which is
- much much more accurate than the previous code. Updated
- configure.in and Makefile.am.newautomake for some MacOSX stuff.
-05222003 - Fixed win32 crash if PHYSFS_init() is called with a NULL.
-05182003 - PocketPC fixes (thanks, David Hedbor!)
-05162003 - Compiler warning cleanup in HOG and MVL archivers (Thanks, Bradley!)
-04082003 - Minor changes to extras/abs-file.h (Thanks, Adam!)
-03302003 - Fixed seeking in uncompressed ZIP entries, and handle a
- misbehaviour in Java's JAR creation tools. Thanks to "Tree" for
- pointing these bugs out. Added HOG and MVL archive support for
- Descent I and II (Thanks, Bradley Bell!). Added example code to
- do case-insensitive file searches ("extras/ignorecase.*").
-03192003 - Fixed problem in PHYSFS_mkdir() when dirs to be created already
- exist. Fixed problem where PHYSFS_mkdir() incorrectly tripped an
- alarm in __PHYSFS_verifySecurity().
-03122003 - Attempt at cleaning up some type correctness for VC++6. Made QPAK
- archiver case-insensitive (since Quake2 has problems without it).
-01302003 - Added buffering API to OS/2 build's exported symbol list. Updated
- CWProjects.sit and made several fixes to get physfs building on
- MacOS Classic again.
-01282003 - Fixed seeking in buffered files opened for read.
-01072003 - .NET assembly and C# wrapper by Gregory S. Read in the extras dir.
-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.
-12172002 - Added Apple Project Builder support files (thanks, Eric Wing!).
-12112002 - Added Ruby bindings to extras directory (thanks, Ed Sinjiashvili!).
- Patched win32.c to compile with Mingw32 (thanks, Niels Wagenaar!).
-12032002 - Adam updated his extras/abs-file.h for the new buffering API.
-12022002 - German translation added, compliments of Michael Renner.
-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.
-11292002 - Minor fix for strange PATH strings in unix.c (thanks, Alexander!)
-11222002 - Initial PocketPC port by Corona688.
-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.
-10112002 - Fixed "setsaneconfig" command in test_physfs.c ...
-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 - Fixed a mistake in makeos2.cmd, and updated the INSTALL docs.
- Added physfs.spec.in to EXTRA_DIST in Makefile.am*
-08292002 - Added a physfs/stdio wrapper header to the "extras" dir,
- compliments of Adam D. Moss (file is "abs-file.h").
-08282002 - Cleanups in grp.c so that Visual C++ doesn't complain anymore.
- 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.
-08172002 - Patched configure.in to work around buggy autoconfs.
-08162002 - Fixed QPAK archiver, since I broke it (sorry!). Also fixed a
- qpak memory leak.
-08092002 - Added Quake PAK archiver (qpak.c) by Ed Sinjiashvili. Thanks!
- 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.
-08012002 - Patched win32.c to compile.
-07302002 - Minor error handling fix (thanks, Alexander!)
-07292002 - Found some memory leaks, thanks to Valgrind (which rules, btw).
- 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.
-07282002 - macclassic.c now returns human readable error messages instead of
- 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
- other spoken languages fairly easily.
-07272002 - Patched the OS/2 code to be useful...works pretty well, now. Added
- makeos2.cmd for building (not an ideal solution, but oh well).
- Initialized some variables in zip.c to prevent compiler whining.
-07262002 - Fixed a typo in documentation. Archivers with matching file
- extensions are now given first shot at opening an archive, but if
- they fail, the other archivers are tried. More fixes to zip.c's
- 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.
- Clean ups in grp.c, beos.cpp and macclassic.c.
-07242002 - Rewrote ZIP_enumerate(). Hopefully it sucks less this time.
- 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.
- Added "ls" as an alias of "enumerate" in test_physfs.
- I lied about zip.c's robustness; disabled the enumeration code.
-07212002 - More FreeBSD build system patches. Added some new autoconf spew to
- .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.)
-07172002 - Fixed seeking backwards in ZIP_seek(). Changed the error message
- ERR_TOO_MANY_SYMLINKS to ERR_SYMLINK_LOOP. Patches to build system
- and unix.c for FreeBSD compatibility. Added physfs.spec to
- "make dist" archives (thanks, Edward Rudd!).
-07152002 - Symlinks in ZIP archives are detected correctly now, I think.
-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.
-07112002 - configure.in updated to make it happier on newer autoconfs
- (thanks again, Alexander!). FIXME cleanups.
-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.
-06282002 - Reworked build system _AGAIN_.
-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
- the DLL it builds works everywhere. Plus, a bunch of other bugs
- 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.
-06062002 - Fixed __PHYSFS_platformSeek() in archivers/posix.c. Implemented the
- 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...)
-05272002 - Added some explicit casts when calling malloc() in platform/posix.c
-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
- available to do so). Implemented getLastModTime in macclassic.c.
-05242002 - Upped version to 0.1.6 (not officially released yet).
-05232002 - Fixed the build system to always package the complete source, not
- just what we built for a given system, when doing a "make dist".
- 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).
-05212002 - Cleaned up some FIXMEs.
-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
- 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.
