Chakravarty <chak@cse.unsw.edu.au> * Previous four improvements are courtesy Donald Stewart <dons@cse.unsw.edu.au> * tests/test.sh: Regress script * package.conf.in: Added package spec * lib/Makefile: Needs a name in the ghc package system * lib/Processes.hs (forkExec): fix code to follow semantics of post 6.2 forkProcess * lib/PortsVersion.hs (versnum): 0.4.3 2003-07-07 Manuel M T Chakravarty <chak@cse.unsw.edu.au> * lib/Processes.hs (procGrpKill): added (procGrp): added 2003-06-23 Manuel M T Chakravarty <chak@cse.unsw.edu.au> * lib/Ports.hs (waitForThread): added (waitForPort): added (waitForPortThread): added (closeAndWaitForPort): added (openPort): added (closePort): repeated closing is offset by opening of ports * lib/PortsVersion.hs (versnum): 0.4.2 * tests/ProcPipe.hs: using `PortThreads' * tests/TestProcesses.hs: using `PortThreads' * lib/Processes.hs (procKill): Added the signal type as an argument 2003-06-22 Manuel M T Chakravarty <chak@cse.unsw.edu.au> * lib/Ports.hs (closePort): Explicitly allow repeated calls to this routine. * lib/Processes.hs (proc): redid the process fork()ing and exec()ing (using a scheme gleaned from David Sankel's `shell-haskell') plus assorted other cleanup 2003-06-18 Manuel M T Chakravarty <chak@cse.unsw.edu.au> * lib/PortThreads.hs: new experimental API that couples port creation with spawning a listener thread * lib/SVars.hs (valV): Needs a NOINLINE 2003-06-17 Manuel M T Chakravarty <chak@cse.unsw.edu.au> * lib/Processes.hs: Two fixes due to changes in GHC 6.0's libraries * lib/PortsVersion.hs (versnum): 0.4.1 2003-02-28 Manuel M T Chakravarty <chak@cse.unsw.edu.au> * lib/ThreadUtils.hs: (<&>), (&>) courtesy of Duncan Coutts * lib/PortsVersion.hs (versnum): 0.4.0 "A Cold Southerly" 2002-09-15 Manuel M T Chakravarty <chak@AttitudeAdjuster> * aclocal.m4 (PORTS_GHC_VERSION): made Solaris and FreeBSD friendly * lib/PortsVersion.hs (versnum): 0.3.4 2001-07-04 Manuel M. T. Chakravarty <chak@cse.unsw.edu.au> * lib/Processes.hs (procKill): added 2001-07-03 Manuel M. T. Chakravarty <chak@cse.unsw.edu.au> * lib/Processes.hs (proc): gracefully handle the case where child processes vanish; eg, because SIGCHLD is set to SIG_IGN (runProcess): make this more save re execve() failing 2001-06-30 Manuel M. T. Chakravarty <chak@cse.unsw.edu.au> * lib/Ports.hs (withPorts): added (keepAlivePort): added (keepAliveForkIO): added * lib/SVars.hs (&): made exception safe 2001-06-29 Manuel M. T. Chakravarty <chak@cse.unsw.edu.au> * lib/Processes.hs (toProc): adapt to change in (<==) * lib/Ports.hs (<==): doesn't use a fork anymore; it's too unintuitive * configure.in (GHC): debugged * Makefile (TARFILES): debugged * lib/PortsVersion.hs (versnum): 0.3.3 2001-06-24 Manuel M. T. Chakravarty <chak@cse.unsw.edu.au> * ports-config.in (syslibs): updated * lib/Ports.hs (waitUntilClosedPort): added (setupPort): revised port creation code and thereby removed a bug in `newProxyPort' * lib/PortsVersion.hs (versnum): 0.3.2 2001-06-19 Manuel M. T. Chakravarty <chak@cse.unsw.edu.au> * ports-config.in: corrected 2001-06-04 Manuel M. T. Chakravarty <chak@cse.unsw.edu.au> * lib/PortsConfig.hs.in: added * lib/Ports.hs (newFilteringPort): worked around the problem with finalisers not counting as threads when the GC determines indefinitely blocked threads and whether the program is deadlocked 2001-06-03 Manuel M. T. Chakravarty <chak@cse.unsw.edu.au> * configure.in: added --enable-debug 2001-06-02 Manuel M. T. Chakravarty <chak@cse.unsw.edu.au> * lib/Ports.hs (newFilteringPort): ports are automagically closed when garbage collected (ensureRegularGC): kludge to avoid deadlocks due to delay in running finalisers * lib/Processes.hs (Proc): changed type to use explicit ports for output * lib/Ports.hs (chainPorts): added (<==): clarified semantics and reduced deadlock potential * lib/PortsVersion.hs (versnum): 0.3.1 2001-05-25 Manuel M. T. Chakravarty <chak@cse.unsw.edu.au> * lib/Processes.hs (proc): added (toProc): added 2001-05-14 Manuel M. T.

Chakravarty <chak@cse.unsw.edu.au> * Added space characters after backslashes used for multiline strings; otherwise, the sources can't be run through cpp - as pointed out by Michael Weber <michael.weber@post.rwth-aachen.de> * aclocal.m4: stole PORTS_GHC_VERSION from fptools * lib/PortsVersion.hs (versnum): 0.2.1 2000-07-05 Manuel M. T. Chakravarty <chak@cse.unsw.edu.au> * lib/Ports.hs (PortNotifier): added (newProxyPort): added (listenToPort): added (linkPorts): added * lib/PortsVersion.hs (versnum): 0.2.0 "Pacific Air" 2000-06-14 Manuel M. T. Chakravarty <chak@cse.unsw.edu.au> * lib/Ports.hs: debugged * lib/PortsVersion.hs (versnum): 0.1.2 2000-06-08 Manuel M. T. Chakravarty <chak@cse.unsw.edu.au> * lib/Ports.hs: Changed the representation of empty closed ports to avoid races 2000-06-07 Manuel M. T.
