1 2005-07-01 Daniel Drake <dsd@gentoo.org>
3 * Syscall.cs: The entire extended attribute API now goes through MPH, to
4 be shared between both Linux's and FreeBSD's similar EA implementations.
6 2005-06-29 Miguel de Icaza <miguel@ximian.com>
8 * StdioFileStream.cs: Only flush if we do not own the handle, as
9 fclose does a flush internally.
11 2005-06-29 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
13 * UnixEnvironment: Add User, Login properties.
14 * Syscall.cs: Add locking around cuserid, crypt, encrypt, getlogin.
16 2005-06-29 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
18 * Syscall.cs: SyslogFacility shouldn't be [Flags] either. Sigh.
19 Thanks to Vorobiev Maksim for pointing this out.
20 * make-map.cs: Don't generate conversion code for [Obsolete] enum members.
21 This assumes that (1) the enum member's value is invalid, or (2) a
22 corrected member with the same value exists. This fix allows us to
23 obsolete invalid members (instead of removing them) without screwing up
24 the generated code -- consider LOG_USRE, the mis-spelling of LOG_USER.
25 Since SyslogFacility was (incorrectly) a [Flags] enum, since both LOG_USER
26 and LOG_USRE had the same value, we'd get a EINVAL error trying to convert
27 a valid value, since LOG_USRE would exist, would be checked for, and the
28 check would succeed (since it had the same value as LOG_USER).
29 This change allows us to be slightly more permissive with versioning.
31 2005-06-28 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
33 * Syscall.cs: correct value of LOG_CRON (it shouldn't be identical to
34 LOG_UUCP). SyslogLevel shouldn't have [Flags]. Move LOG_USER to be
35 before LOG_USRE so that the generated map code doesn't return EINVAL when
36 LOG_USER is specified.
38 2005-06-15 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
40 * Syscall.cs: s/LOG_USRE/LOG_USER/. Fixes #75274.
41 Thanks to Martin Honermeyer.
43 2005-06-09 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
45 * make-map.cs: Look for [Obsolete] members, and mark the UnixConvert
46 conversion functions with the same [Obsolete] message. This should permit
47 more graceful deprecation of enumerations in the future (rather than just
50 2005-06-08 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
52 * Syscall.cs: Add execvp(2). (This should have been added with the other
53 exec(2) additions...).
55 2005-06-08 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
57 * Syscall.cs: Update comment with correct exception type.
58 * UnixConvert.cs: Rename ToFilePermissions(string) to
59 FromOctalPermissionString; Add ToOctalPermissionString,
60 FromUnixPermissionString, ToUnixPermissionString.
61 * UnixMarshal.cs: Remove ErrorMarshal.HaveStrerror_r and
62 UnixMarshal.IsErrorDescriptionThreadSafe. strerror(3) is now thread-safe
63 (from managed code, at least). Update comment.
65 2005-06-07 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
67 * UnixFileSystemInfo.cs: Don't use lstat(2), use stat(2). This fits with
68 expectations better -- if you create a UnixFileInfo() on a symlink, you
69 want to get the target's information, not the symlink's info. Add
70 GetFileStatus so UnixSymbolicLinkInfo can override this behavior.
71 * UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs: Implement GetFileStatus() (which calls lstat(2)).
73 2005-06-07 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
75 * Syscall.cs: Document naming conventions.
77 2005-06-05 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
79 * make-map.cs: Change automatic "ifdef HAVE_<header>" support prefix to
80 "ah:" from ">". I hadn't known about ">", and "ah:" is (somewhat) more
82 * Syscall.cs: Change IncludeAttribute to put all headers/defines one/line.
83 It's easier to read this way. Add "ah:sys/xattr.h" to the headers.
85 2005-06-03 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
87 * Stdlib.cs: Add sanity checking to snprintf(3) to avoid buffer overflows.
89 2005-06-02 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
91 * StdioFileStream.cs: Remove FilePosition property & replace with
92 SaveFilePosition/RestoreFilePosition methods. Since FilePosition has a
93 finalizer, it's not right to have implicitly created instances.
95 - FilePosition: GC.SuppressFinalize() should be last in Dispose()
96 (following .NET guidelines).
97 - Syscall: Add locking around functions most likely to be thread unsafe.
98 This should provide some level of thread-safety to managed code.
99 * Syscall.cs: Add locking around functions most likely to be thread unsafe;
100 add mkstemp(3) export.
101 * UnixEnvironment.cs: GetUserShells should be atomic (from managed code).
102 * UnixGroup.cs: GetLocalGroups should be atomic (from managed code).
103 * UnixGroupInfo.cs: Add ToGroup() method to retrieve underlying Group info.
104 * UnixUser.cs: GetLocalUsers should be atomic (from managed code).
105 * UnixUserInfo.cs: Add ToPasswd () method to retrieve underlying Passwd info.
106 * UnixDriveInfo.cs: GetDrives should be atomic (from managed code).
108 2005-05-31 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
110 * Stdlib.cs: Add comment for atexit(3) so I don't try to add it.
111 * Syscall.cs: Add fcntl(2) overload which takes DirectoryNotifyFlags (so
112 that *something* accepts a DirectoryNotifyFlags); Fix IncludeAttribute
113 header files (">sys/poll.h" doesn't exist);
114 Add additional <sys/mman.h> functions mmap, munmap, msync, mlock, munlock,
115 mlockall, munlockall, mremap, mincore, remap_file_pages.
116 * UnixConvert.cs: Add conversion functions for MmapFlags, MmapProt, MsyncFlags,
117 MlockallFlags, MremapFlags.
119 2005-05-31 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
121 * Syscall.cs, UnixConvert.cs: Rename LockFlags to LockfCommand. This is a more
122 consistent naming, and it's more correct (they weren't flags in the first place).
124 2005-05-18 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
126 * Stdlib.cs: Correct Mono_Posix_Stdlib_InvokeSignalHandler export.
128 2005-05-18 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
130 * make-map.cs: Process the Mono.Posix namespace as well as Mono.Unix; add
131 mapping for Boolean => int for native type conversion.
133 2005-05-18 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
135 * make-map.cs: Add a MphPrototypeFileGenerator, which looks for DllImport
136 methods across all types and generates a C header file declaration for
137 those methods. This allows us to ensure consistency between
138 Mono.Posix.dll and MonoPosixHelper.so. Rename WrapperFileGenerator to
139 ConvertFileGenerator (it generates UnixConvert).
140 * MapAttribute.cs, IncludeAttribute.cs: Make these internal -- there's no
141 reason for external users to even know these exist.
142 * StdioFileStream.cs: Move GC.SuppressFinalize call to be last Dispose()
143 call. This follows current design guidelines, and allows an exception to
144 be thrown from Dispose() without un-registering the finalizer.
145 * Syscall.cs: Change method declarations to match MonoPosixHelper, etc.
146 - posix_fallocate(P) takes a size_t
147 - mis-spelled settimeofday(2), sethostname(2)
148 - exec(2) can be public; it's safe to call
149 - change lseek(2) so int's are passed to MonoPosixHelper.so, not shorts
150 - We can't allow two incompatible prototypes to exist (since C allows
151 only one prototype, and we're cross-checking prototypes now). Change
152 utime(2) so only one prototype is needed.
153 * UnixMarshal.cs: ErrorMarshal.ErrorTranslator and ErrorMarshal.Translate
154 shouldn't be public; make them internal.
155 * UnixStream.cs: Remove `unsafe` code block when a "safe" alternative works;
156 Close() should also call GC.SuppressFinalize.
158 2005-05-12 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
160 * Syscall.cs: The Statvfs structure should contain a MountFlags enumeration,
161 not a ulong (we can "safely" do this since POSIX defines some values for
162 f_flag, so we should be kind and expose them).
163 * UnixConvert.cs: Add MountFlags conversion functions.
165 2005-05-02 Joe Shaw <joeshaw@novell.com>
167 * UnixListener.cs (Init): Remove the call to Cleanup() and the
168 method itself, which was not supposed to be here. We try to
169 connect to the socket if it exists instead of deleting it
172 2005-04-30 Ben Maurer <bmaurer@ximian.com>
174 * Stdlib.cs: Comment out usage of `UnmanagedFunctionPointer'. It
175 isn't supported in the runtime -- it throws an assert -- so better
176 not to use it at all for now.
178 2005-04-29 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
180 * UnixConvert.cs: Fix time_t -> DateTime conversions. time_t should be
181 assumed to be in the local time zone, so don't mess with UTC shifts.
182 This allows Mono.Unix to produce sane output (e.g. identical to ls(1) or
183 stat(1), instead of several hours different).
185 2005-04-29 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
187 * Stdlib.cs: Make FilePosition slightly more useful by providing a
188 ToString() override which dumps the fpos_t structure contents into a
189 hex string. Add Equals(), GetHashCode(), operator==, and operator!=
190 so FilePosition behaves like a value type.
192 2005-04-21 Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>
195 * UnixListener.cs: TcpListener/TcpClient clones from Jow Shaw.
197 2005-04-21 Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>
199 * Mono.Posix.dll.sources: added UnixListener and UnixClient from Joe
202 2005-04-21 Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>
204 * UnixEndPoint.cs: fix from Mono.Posix.
206 2005-04-20 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
208 * Syscall.cs: Make all fork(2) and exec(2) functions `private`. It
209 currently isn't safe to call these under *any* circumstances. See also
210 68141, and this pertinent quote from Butenhof's
211 "Programming with POSIX Threads", p197, s6.1:
213 "When a threaded process calls fork to create a child process,
214 Pthreads specifies that only the thread calling fork exists in the
215 child. ... Pthreads does not 'terminate' the other threads in a forked
216 process...They simply cease to exist. ... This is not a problem if
217 the child process is about to call exec to run a new program, but if
218 you use fork to clone a threaded program, beware that you may lose
219 access to memory, especially heap memory stored only as
220 thread-specific data values."
222 Since P/Invoke currently requires using thread local storage, once you
223 fork(2) you won't be able to invoke exec(2) from managed code (since that
224 would require a P/Invoke transition to call exec(2), which would require
225 TLS, which doesn't exist in the new process).
227 This can only be fixed by removing the TLS dependency on P/Invoke, which
228 isn't a priority (and may not be possible).
230 The workaround is to create a C function which does your fork(2)/exec(2)
231 (and any other functions such as daemon(3)) on your behalf, and P/Invoke
232 to call this C function.
234 2005-04-18 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
236 * Syscall.cs: Update comment specifying which functions belong in Syscall.
237 * UnixConvert.cs: Add XattrFlags conversion functions.
238 * UnixMarshal.cs: Remove warning about self-assignment.
240 2005-04-16 Daniel Drake <dsd@gentoo.org>
242 * Syscall.cs: Add bindings for extended attribute manipulation
244 2005-04-05 Miguel de Icaza <miguel@novell.com>
246 * Syscall.cs: Set entry point for sys_syslog to be syslog.
247 Include the syslog.h header in the generated map so that we
248 actually do the mapping.
250 2005-03-28 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
252 * UnixConvert.cs: Add ToFopenMode() methods, which convert FileMode/FileAccess
253 into an fopen(3) mode string. ToOpenFlags() should throw
254 ArgumentOutOfRangeException for argument violations.
255 * StdioFileStream.cs: Add constructor overloads accepting filename and
256 FileMode/FileAccess overloads; Compatibility fixes with regression tests;
257 remove IDisposable implementation since System.IO.Stream already
258 implements it (which calls Close() for us).
260 2005-03-17 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
262 * Stdlib.cs: Move Errno-related functionality into Stdlib from Syscall,
263 since (1) errno is part of C89, and (2) StdioFileStream will need it, and
264 StdioFileStream shouldn't use Syscall. Add [UnmanagedFunctionPointer]
265 attribute to SignalHandler for .NET 2.0 (since signal handlers use C
266 calling convention, not Stdcall).
267 * Syscall.cs: Move Errno-related functionality into Stdlib.
268 * UnixMarshal.cs: Use ERANGE not EPERM when figuring out appropriate
269 translator, since ERANGE is part of C99 and EPERM isn't. Use Stdlib
270 instead of Syscall for Errno-related functionality.
272 2005-02-02 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
274 * UnixFile.cs: Cope with changes in UnixStream.
275 * UnixStream.cs: Change FileDescriptor property to Handle for consistency.
276 * StdioFileStream.cs: Change FileStream property to Handle for consistency.
278 2005-02-02 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
280 * Syscall.cs: Remove public sys_ methods. Some were public by mistake, and
281 others so that users could manually marshal strings if desired. Manually
282 marshaling strings shouldn't be necessary, though, so remove them too.
284 2005-02-02 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
286 * StdioFileStream.cs: Fix Length property to actually return the size of the
287 file, not the # of bytes from the current position to EOF. Oops.
289 2005-01-31 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
291 * Stdlib.cs: Import "msvcrt", not "libc". These members are part of the
292 ANSI C standard, and thus should be present on Windows via msvcrt.dll
293 (except snprintf, until they catch up to C99). Change the calling
294 convention of all functions to Cdecl, as the .NET default is Stdcall.
295 Changing the calling convention isn't needed in Syscall, as it can only be
296 run on Unix platforms anyway, where the default is Cdecl.
297 * Syscall.cs: Add LIBC member that points to the real "libc"; we can't use
298 the imported definition from Stdlib as "msvcrt" doesn't exist on Unix.
300 2005-01-29 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
302 * Stdlib.cs: sys_* functions shouldn't be public.
304 2005-01-13 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
306 * make-map.cs: libMonoPosixHelper exports Mono_Posix prefixes, not Mono_Unix
307 prefixes, so change the type and namespace to generate compatible code.
308 * Syscall.cs: Change OpenFlags values so they match the Linux values.
310 2005-01-13 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
312 * Stdlib.cs: Use Stdlib.LIBC instead of "libc".
313 * StdioFileStream.cs: Add FilePosition property (not that I expect anyone to
314 use it) and Rewind() method.
316 2005-01-05 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
318 * StdioFileStream.cs: Added; System.IO.Stream wrapper for C FILE struct.
319 * Stdlib.cs: Correct visibility of ftell().
321 2005-01-05 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
323 * Stdlib.cs: Re-order declarations to match the order used in the
324 C99 Standard Annex B; Complete <stdio.h> exports (except for those not
325 worth supporting); Add non-"unsafe" versions of fread(3), fwrite(3) and
326 add some rudimentary buffer-overflow checking; Add <stdlib.h> exports such
327 as getenv(3), exit(3), rand(3), EXIT_SUCCESS, RAND_MAX, etc.
329 2005-01-03 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
331 * Syscall.cs: Update endfsent() and setfsent() declarations, as these must
332 now be implemented in MonoPosixHelper.
334 2005-01-01 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
336 * Stdlib.cs, Syscall.cs: Minimize duplicate declarations of
337 "MonoPosixHelper" for use in DllImport statements.
339 2005-01-01 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
341 * Stdlib.cs: Don't use C# v2 features; fixes build under CSC.EXE.
343 2004-12-30 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
345 * Stdlib.cs: On miguel's suggestion, rename Sighandler_t to SignalHandler.
347 2004-12-30 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
349 * Stdlib.cs: Implement all C89 <stdio.h> functions except for the scanf(3)
350 family. These are too dangerous to expose.
352 2004-12-30 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
354 * CdeclFunctions.cs: Remove warning about unused variable.
355 * Stdlib.cs: Make signal(2) sane and (hopefully) complete.
356 * Syscall.cs: Fix cuserid Obsolete message to reference correct class name.
357 * UnixProcess.cs: Remove warning about unused variable.
358 * UnixMarshal.cs: Remove warnings about unused variables.
360 2004-12-29 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
362 * UnixPath.cs: Add ReadSymbolicLink(), which takes an intelligent approach
363 to reading symlinks (since their contents may be any size, we grow the
364 buffer dynamically to fit them all, instead of assuming a maximum size).
365 * UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs: Remove MaxContentsSize.
367 2004-12-29 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
369 * UnixPath.cs: Add check for when symlink points to a full path name.
371 2004-12-29 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
373 * Syscall.cs: Fix Object.Equals implementations.
374 * UnixPath.cs: New & improved, with Testing! GetRealPath() is changed so
375 that it doesn't walk the entire path looking for symlinks, it just reads
376 the leaf. GetCompletRealPath() walks the entire path resolving symlinks.
377 GetCanonicalPath() added, which "cleans up" a path (removing extraneous
378 "." and ".." entries).
379 * UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs: Rename ContentsLength -> MaxContentsSize.
381 2004-12-28 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
383 * UnixFileSystemInfo.cs: Add a link(2) wrapper, CreateLink(). Strictly
384 speaking it's only "safe" to do this on files, but an exception will be
385 returned if the user tries to hard link directories (because of EPERM),
386 unless the user is root, in which case it should be allowed anyway...
388 2004-12-28 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
390 * CdeclFunctions.cs: Correct the comments for AMD64
391 * UnixDirectoryInfo.cs: override Name; add Parent & Root properties;
392 Correct Path usage (s/Path/FullPath/g).
393 * UnixDriveInfo.cs: Added. Based on .NET 2.0 System.IO.DriveInfo docs,
394 provides statvfs(2) and getfsfile(3) information about a mounted volume.
395 GetDrives() wraps getfsent(3), thus parsing /etc/fstab.
396 * UnixFile.cs: Use UnixConver.ToOpenFlags, deleting the local version.
397 * UnixFileInfo.cs: Use UnixConver.ToOpenFlags, deleting the local version;
398 override Name; add DirectoryName and Directory properties;
399 * UnixFileSystemInfo.cs: Make more .NET-like, using FullPath and
400 OriginalPath protected members, abstract Name property; Add
401 CreateSymbolicLink; Remove ReadLink (it's now
402 UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.Contents); Use lstat(2) for Create(string), so we
403 properly detect Symbolic Links.
404 * UnixPath.cs: Added; Path manipulation utility functions.
405 * UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs:
407 - override new abstract member Name;
408 - rename ReadLink to ContentsPath (and Contents) properties
409 (why "Contents"? Because readlink(2) says "readlink places the
410 contents of the symbolic link in the buffer...")
411 - Add CreateSymbolicLinkTo(), which creates a symlink to the specified
414 2004-12-28 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
416 * Stdlib.cs: Add syslog(3) to XPrintfFunctions; Add additional printf(3)
417 and fprintf(3) overload which properly escape the format string
418 (by using "%s" as the format for the user-supplied message).
419 * Syscall.cs: Add #regions for enummerations, structures, classes; Wrap
420 syslog(3) and related enumerations; fix operator!= on Dirent, Group;
421 wrap {f}statvfs(2); wrap <fstab.h> entries (getfsent(3), etc.).
422 * UnixConvert.cs: Add Syslog-releated enumeration translation functions;
423 Move ToOpenFlags here from UnixFile and UnixFileInfo.
424 * UnixMarshal.cs: Missing P/Invoke methods throw
425 EntryPointNotFoundException, not MissingMethodException; add
426 EscapeFormatString, which escapes printf-style format strings so that they
427 can be safely handed off to native code (avoiding stack overflow, etc);
428 make CreateExceptionForError internal.
430 2004-12-15 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
432 * Stdlib.cs: Add more <stdio.h> wrappers, such as fread(3) and fwrite(3).
433 These will be useful in implementing System.IO.Stream subclass for
434 reading/writing to a FILE*. Fix a typo in the realloc(3) DllImport.
435 * Syscall.cs: Fix the sys_kill and sys_crypt declarations.
436 * CdeclFunction.cs: Document calling convention problems on AMD64.
438 2004-11-18 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
440 * CdeclFunction.cs: Added.
441 * Stdlib.cs: Re-add printf(3) and fprintf(3). They may not be portable (the
442 jury is still out on that; the AMD64 SysV ABI looks like it should be
443 portable to AMD64 to my eyes), but they will work on *some* platforms, so
444 we should permit it. The new implementation takes a page out of
445 cocoa-sharp: use System.Reflection.Emit to generate a P/Invoke method at
446 runtime to invoke printf(3) or fprintf(3). This way, we can export a
447 params signature to C# code, permitting natural usage such as:
448 Stdlib.printf ("Hello, %s world! (%i)\n", "silly", 42);
449 * Syscall.cs: Mark which headers are complete, which functions still need
450 wrapping (for headers which have anything done to them), add #region
451 blocks for each header;
452 export mkfifo(3), fexecve(), getppid(2), setlogin(); fix sleep(3) export.
453 * UnixEnvironment.cs: Export a friendly getppid(2) wrapper.
454 GetParentProcessId isn't in UnixProcess as there's no way (that I know of)
455 to get the Parent's Parent, so it can't be a class member, and exposing it
456 as a static member of UnixProcess doesn't make sense to me, as it isn't
457 general. Added GetUserShells().
458 * UnixProcess.cs: Change constructor to internal, so it can be used from
461 2004-11-16 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
463 * Stdlib.cs: Remove printf(3) and fprintf(3). These are vararg/CDECL
464 functions, and it's not portable to call them in this manner.
465 (It's not portable because some architectures, such as AMD64, use a
466 "cookie" as part of the vararg calling sequence to help reduce buffer
467 overflow exploits. Trying to call vararg functions as if they were an
468 overloaded function will not properly set this hardware cookie, resulting
469 in a hardware exception. Talk to lupus for more information.)
471 2004-11-16 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
473 * Syscall.cs, UnixConvert.cs: Remove mount- and umount-related
474 functionality. Mount/umount is inherently non-portable (see the C code
475 for mount/umount), and trying to provide a consistent interface is
476 impossible. If you need mount/umount support, use the command-line
477 programs mount(1) and umount(1).
479 2004-11-16 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
481 + Lots o' Renames, as the namespace changed.
482 * PosixConvert.cs: Moved to UnixConvert.cs:
483 * PosixDirectory.cs: Moved to UnixDirectory.cs:
484 * PosixEnvironment.cs: Moved to UnixEnvironment.cs:
485 * PosixDirectoryInfo.cs: Moved to UnixDirectoryInfo.cs:
486 * PosixFile.cs: Moved to UnixFile.cs:
487 * PosixFileInfo.cs: Moved to UnixFileInfo.cs:
488 * PosixFileSystemInfo.cs: Moved to UnixFileSystemInfo.cs:
489 * PosixGroup.cs: Moved to UnixGroup.cs:
490 * PosixGroupInfo.cs: Moved to UnixGroupInfo.cs:
491 * PosixIOException.cs: Moved to UnixIOException.cs:
492 * PosixMarshal.cs: Moved to UnixMarshal.cs:
493 * PosixProcess.cs: Moved to UnixProcess.cs:

495 * PosixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs: Moved to UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs:
496 * PosixUser.cs: Moved to UnixUser.cs:
497 * PosixUserInfo.cs: Moved to UnixUserInfo.cs:
498 * Catalog.cs, IncludeAttribute.cs, MapAttribute.cs, PeerCred.cs, Stdlib.cs,
499 Syscall.cs, UnixConvert.cs, UnixDirectory.cs, UnixDirectoryInfo.cs,
500 UnixEndPoint.cs, UnixEnvironment.cs, UnixFile.cs, UnixFileInfo.cs,

505 2004-11-15 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
507 * PosixUserInfo.cs: Make the PosixUserInfo(Passwd) constructor public;
508 override Object.GetHashCode and Object.Equals.
509 * PosixGroupInfo.cs: Make the PosixGroupInfo(Group) constructor public;
510 override Object.GetHashCode and Object.Equals.
511 * PosixIOException.cs: Use PosixMarshal.GetErrorDescription instead of
512 calling Syscall.strerror_r directly
513 * PosixMarshal.cs: Add GetErrorDescription. Strerror_r() isn't portable, so
514 GetErrorDescription() first tries strerror_r(), and if it fails falls back
517 - Seal the Dirent class. It has no virtual members, so there's no point
518 in it being non-sealed. Override Object.GetHashCode and Object.Equals.
519 - Seal the Group class. It has no virtual members, so there's no point
520 in it being non-sealed. Override Object.GetHashCode and Object.Equals.
521 Provide operator== and operator!=.
522 - Seal the Passwd class. It has no virtual members, so there's no point
523 in it being non-sealed. Override Object.GetHashCode and Object.Equals.
524 Provide operator== and operator!=.
525 - Remove strerror_r() convenience overload. This is now
526 PosixMarshal.GetErrorDescription().
528 2004-11-12 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
530 * Syscall.cs: Export time-related functions (gettimeofday, settimeofday,
531 utime, utimes), mknod.
533 2004-11-07 Atsushi Enomoto <atsushi@ximian.com>
535 * PosixEnvironment.cs : csc build fix. see bug #69195.
536 * PosixStream.cs : csc build fix. see bug #69196.
538 2004-11-05 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
540 * PosixConvert.cs: New file; conversion functions for Mono.Posix types.
541 * PosixDirectory.cs: New file; Friendly wrapper over directory information.
542 * PosixDirectoryInfo.cs: New file; Friendly wrapper over directory information.
543 * PosixEnvironment.cs: New file; Friendly wrapper over environment information.
544 * PosixFile.cs: New file; Friendly wrapper over file information.
545 * PosixFileInfo.cs: New file; Friendly wrapper over file information.
546 * PosixFileSystemInfo.cs: New file; Friendly wrapper over `stat'.
547 * PosixGroup.cs: New file; User Group-related functionality
548 * PosixGroupInfo.cs: New file; User Group-related functionality
549 * PosixIOException.cs: New file; Exception for POSIX-generated exceptions.
550 * PosixMarshal.cs: New file; utility functions for marshaling, etc.
551 * PosixProcess.cs: New file; Friendly wrapper over process information.
552 * PosixStream.cs: New file; Friendly wrapper over file descriptors.
553 * PosixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs: New file; Friendly wrapper over symbolic links.
554 * PosixUser.cs: New file; Friendly wrapper over user information.
555 * PosixUserInfo.cs: New file; Friendly wrapper over user information.
556 * Stdlib.cs: New file; C standard library exports.
557 * Syscall.cs: Effective re-write.
558 - Organize exports by header file
559 - add additional enumerations (Error for the E* error values, etc.)
560 - always explicitly specify enumeration underlying type
561 - Use a new wrapping infrastructure so that ABI-stable types are exported
562 - For example, size_t is exported as ulong, not IntPtr.
563 - Wrap more functions, and wrap them better (such as getpwnam).
564 - This release is NOT backward compatible. Many names are the same, and
565 hopefully they're still compatible, but no effort was made to maintain
566 compatibility. For example, FileMode was removed and replaced with
567 FilePermissions, to avoid a name conflict with System.IO.FileMode.
568 - Change umount() to use MonoPosixHelper: portability fix for Mac OS X.
569 * make-map.cs: Another effective re-write, to clean up the code, produce
570 better output, and produce more output. For example, most of
571 PosixConvert can be auto-generated, so it is (modulo version delays and
572 bootstrap issues). `map.c' is now conditional on all macros, and has
573 error checking for invalid/unsupported values.
575 2004-09-18 Jackson Harper <jackson@ximian.com>
577 * Syscall.cs: Add support for poll ().
579 2004-09-18 Jackson Harper <jackson@ximian.com>
581 * make-map.cs: Use field value not name for #defines.
583 2004-09-14 Loren Bandiera <lorenb@mmgsecurity.com>
585 * Syscall.cs: Added method for getpwnam which uses Passwd
587 * macros.c: Helper function for getpwnam
588 (In committing, Josh Tauberer also added getpwuid.)
590 2004-07-09 Dick Porter <dick@ximian.com>
592 * PeerCred.cs: Get the unix socket peer credentials.
594 2004-05-26 Miguel de Icaza <miguel@ximian.com>
596 * Syscall.cs: Do not let the runtime handle strings, as we do not
597 own those strings, we must transform the char * into a string
600 2004-05-03 Miguel de Icaza <miguel@ximian.com>
602 * Syscall.cs: Add symlink
604 2004-04-19 Miguel de Icaza <miguel@ximian.com>
606 * Syscall.cs: Use hex values for FileMode, since C# does not have
607 an octal integer mode.
609 2004-03-30 Joshua Tauberer <tauberer@for.net>
611 * Added readlink, strerror, opendir, readdir, closedir
612 * Added Mono.Posix.Stat.UnixToDateTime(long unixtime) --> DateTime
614 2004-03-11 Joshua Tauberer <tauberer@for.net>
616 * Syscall.cs: Removed argument to getgid that shouldn't be there.
617 Added getusername, getgroupname which wrap getpwuid, getgrgid
618 without dealing with pointers to structures.
619 Removed duplicate FileMode enum nested in Syscall class.
620 Added stat and lstat, which use StatMode enumeration
621 (like FileMode but nicer and complete) and Stat struct.
622 * macros.c: Helper functions for getpwuid, getgrgid, stat, lstat.
624 2004-01-07 Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>
626 * Syscall.cs: moved the assembly attribute to a proper place
628 * make-map.cs: use reflection to invoke the properties, as it
629 fails under MS runtime.
632 2004-01-05 Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>
634 * Syscall.cs: moved assembly attribute and added unsafe block to fix
635 the build on windows.
637 2003-11-11 Wojciech Polak <polak@gnu.org
639 * Syscall.cs: Applied patch from Wojciech Polak <polak@gnu.org> to
642 2003-05-16 Dick Porter <dick@ximian.com>
644 * UnixEndPoint.cs: New property to get and set the filename, like
645 the IPEndPoint has for the IP address. Also implement ToString().
647 Tue Apr 29 16:53:56 CEST 2003 Paolo Molaro <lupus@ximian.com>
649 * Syscall.cs: remove the unsafe mess.
651 2003-02-05 Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>
654 * UnixEndPoint.cs: first file.
