1 2005-09-02 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
3 * Stdlib.cs: Cache delegates passed to Stdlib.signal() so that they survive
4 garbage collections. Delegates can be removed by calling Stdlib.signal()
5 again with one of the Stdlib.SIG_* values (or the original return value of
7 * UnixUser.cs, UnixGroup.cs, UnixEnvironment.cs: Clarify "Id" (int) vs.
8 "Name" (string) differences by always using a Id or Name suffix.
10 2005-07-01 Daniel Drake <dsd@gentoo.org>
12 * Syscall.cs: The entire extended attribute API now goes through MPH, to
13 be shared between both Linux's and FreeBSD's similar EA implementations.
15 2005-06-29 Miguel de Icaza <miguel@ximian.com>
17 * StdioFileStream.cs: Only flush if we do not own the handle, as
18 fclose does a flush internally.
20 2005-06-29 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
22 * UnixEnvironment: Add User, Login properties.
23 * Syscall.cs: Add locking around cuserid, crypt, encrypt, getlogin.
25 2005-06-29 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
27 * Syscall.cs: SyslogFacility shouldn't be [Flags] either. Sigh.
28 Thanks to Vorobiev Maksim for pointing this out.
29 * make-map.cs: Don't generate conversion code for [Obsolete] enum members.
30 This assumes that (1) the enum member's value is invalid, or (2) a
31 corrected member with the same value exists. This fix allows us to
32 obsolete invalid members (instead of removing them) without screwing up
33 the generated code -- consider LOG_USRE, the mis-spelling of LOG_USER.
34 Since SyslogFacility was (incorrectly) a [Flags] enum, since both LOG_USER
35 and LOG_USRE had the same value, we'd get a EINVAL error trying to convert
36 a valid value, since LOG_USRE would exist, would be checked for, and the
37 check would succeed (since it had the same value as LOG_USER).
38 This change allows us to be slightly more permissive with versioning.
40 2005-06-28 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
42 * Syscall.cs: correct value of LOG_CRON (it shouldn't be identical to
43 LOG_UUCP). SyslogLevel shouldn't have [Flags]. Move LOG_USER to be
44 before LOG_USRE so that the generated map code doesn't return EINVAL when
45 LOG_USER is specified.
47 2005-06-15 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
49 * Syscall.cs: s/LOG_USRE/LOG_USER/. Fixes #75274.
50 Thanks to Martin Honermeyer.
52 2005-06-09 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
54 * make-map.cs: Look for [Obsolete] members, and mark the UnixConvert
55 conversion functions with the same [Obsolete] message. This should permit
56 more graceful deprecation of enumerations in the future (rather than just
59 2005-06-08 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
61 * Syscall.cs: Add execvp(2). (This should have been added with the other
62 exec(2) additions...).
64 2005-06-08 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
66 * Syscall.cs: Update comment with correct exception type.
67 * UnixConvert.cs: Rename ToFilePermissions(string) to
68 FromOctalPermissionString; Add ToOctalPermissionString,
69 FromUnixPermissionString, ToUnixPermissionString.
70 * UnixMarshal.cs: Remove ErrorMarshal.HaveStrerror_r and
71 UnixMarshal.IsErrorDescriptionThreadSafe. strerror(3) is now thread-safe
72 (from managed code, at least). Update comment.
74 2005-06-07 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
76 * UnixFileSystemInfo.cs: Don't use lstat(2), use stat(2). This fits with
77 expectations better -- if you create a UnixFileInfo() on a symlink, you
78 want to get the target's information, not the symlink's info. Add
79 GetFileStatus so UnixSymbolicLinkInfo can override this behavior.
80 * UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs: Implement GetFileStatus() (which calls lstat(2)).
82 2005-06-07 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
84 * Syscall.cs: Document naming conventions.
86 2005-06-05 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
88 * make-map.cs: Change automatic "ifdef HAVE_<header>" support prefix to
89 "ah:" from ">". I hadn't known about ">", and "ah:" is (somewhat) more
91 * Syscall.cs: Change IncludeAttribute to put all headers/defines one/line.
92 It's easier to read this way. Add "ah:sys/xattr.h" to the headers.
94 2005-06-03 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
96 * Stdlib.cs: Add sanity checking to snprintf(3) to avoid buffer overflows.
98 2005-06-02 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
100 * StdioFileStream.cs: Remove FilePosition property & replace with
101 SaveFilePosition/RestoreFilePosition methods. Since FilePosition has a
102 finalizer, it's not right to have implicitly created instances.
104 - FilePosition: GC.SuppressFinalize() should be last in Dispose()
105 (following .NET guidelines).
106 - Syscall: Add locking around functions most likely to be thread unsafe.
107 This should provide some level of thread-safety to managed code.
108 * Syscall.cs: Add locking around functions most likely to be thread unsafe;
109 add mkstemp(3) export.
110 * UnixEnvironment.cs: GetUserShells should be atomic (from managed code).
111 * UnixGroup.cs: GetLocalGroups should be atomic (from managed code).
112 * UnixGroupInfo.cs: Add ToGroup() method to retrieve underlying Group info.
113 * UnixUser.cs: GetLocalUsers should be atomic (from managed code).
114 * UnixUserInfo.cs: Add ToPasswd () method to retrieve underlying Passwd info.
115 * UnixDriveInfo.cs: GetDrives should be atomic (from managed code).
117 2005-05-31 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
119 * Stdlib.cs: Add comment for atexit(3) so I don't try to add it.
120 * Syscall.cs: Add fcntl(2) overload which takes DirectoryNotifyFlags (so
121 that *something* accepts a DirectoryNotifyFlags); Fix IncludeAttribute
122 header files (">sys/poll.h" doesn't exist);
123 Add additional <sys/mman.h> functions mmap, munmap, msync, mlock, munlock,
124 mlockall, munlockall, mremap, mincore, remap_file_pages.
125 * UnixConvert.cs: Add conversion functions for MmapFlags, MmapProt, MsyncFlags,
126 MlockallFlags, MremapFlags.
128 2005-05-31 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
130 * Syscall.cs, UnixConvert.cs: Rename LockFlags to LockfCommand. This is a more
131 consistent naming, and it's more correct (they weren't flags in the first place).
133 2005-05-18 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
135 * Stdlib.cs: Correct Mono_Posix_Stdlib_InvokeSignalHandler export.
137 2005-05-18 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
139 * make-map.cs: Process the Mono.Posix namespace as well as Mono.Unix; add
140 mapping for Boolean => int for native type conversion.
142 2005-05-18 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
144 * make-map.cs: Add a MphPrototypeFileGenerator, which looks for DllImport
145 methods across all types and generates a C header file declaration for
146 those methods. This allows us to ensure consistency between
147 Mono.Posix.dll and MonoPosixHelper.so. Rename WrapperFileGenerator to
148 ConvertFileGenerator (it generates UnixConvert).
149 * MapAttribute.cs, IncludeAttribute.cs: Make these internal -- there's no
150 reason for external users to even know these exist.
151 * StdioFileStream.cs: Move GC.SuppressFinalize call to be last Dispose()
152 call. This follows current design guidelines, and allows an exception to
153 be thrown from Dispose() without un-registering the finalizer.
154 * Syscall.cs: Change method declarations to match MonoPosixHelper, etc.
155 - posix_fallocate(P) takes a size_t
156 - mis-spelled settimeofday(2), sethostname(2)
157 - exec(2) can be public; it's safe to call
158 - change lseek(2) so int's are passed to MonoPosixHelper.so, not shorts
159 - We can't allow two incompatible prototypes to exist (since C allows
160 only one prototype, and we're cross-checking prototypes now). Change
161 utime(2) so only one prototype is needed.
162 * UnixMarshal.cs: ErrorMarshal.ErrorTranslator and ErrorMarshal.Translate
163 shouldn't be public; make them internal.
164 * UnixStream.cs: Remove `unsafe` code block when a "safe" alternative works;
165 Close() should also call GC.SuppressFinalize.
167 2005-05-12 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
169 * Syscall.cs: The Statvfs structure should contain a MountFlags enumeration,
170 not a ulong (we can "safely" do this since POSIX defines some values for
171 f_flag, so we should be kind and expose them).
172 * UnixConvert.cs: Add MountFlags conversion functions.
174 2005-05-02 Joe Shaw <joeshaw@novell.com>
176 * UnixListener.cs (Init): Remove the call to Cleanup() and the
177 method itself, which was not supposed to be here. We try to
178 connect to the socket if it exists instead of deleting it
181 2005-04-30 Ben Maurer <bmaurer@ximian.com>
183 * Stdlib.cs: Comment out usage of `UnmanagedFunctionPointer'. It
184 isn't supported in the runtime -- it throws an assert -- so better
185 not to use it at all for now.
187 2005-04-29 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
189 * UnixConvert.cs: Fix time_t -> DateTime conversions. time_t should be
190 assumed to be in the local time zone, so don't mess with UTC shifts.
191 This allows Mono.Unix to produce sane output (e.g. identical to ls(1) or
192 stat(1), instead of several hours different).
194 2005-04-29 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
196 * Stdlib.cs: Make FilePosition slightly more useful by providing a
197 ToString() override which dumps the fpos_t structure contents into a
198 hex string. Add Equals(), GetHashCode(), operator==, and operator!=
199 so FilePosition behaves like a value type.
201 2005-04-21 Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>
204 * UnixListener.cs: TcpListener/TcpClient clones from Jow Shaw.
206 2005-04-21 Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>
208 * Mono.Posix.dll.sources: added UnixListener and UnixClient from Joe
211 2005-04-21 Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>
213 * UnixEndPoint.cs: fix from Mono.Posix.
215 2005-04-20 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
217 * Syscall.cs: Make all fork(2) and exec(2) functions `private`. It
218 currently isn't safe to call these under *any* circumstances. See also
219 68141, and this pertinent quote from Butenhof's
220 "Programming with POSIX Threads", p197, s6.1:
222 "When a threaded process calls fork to create a child process,
223 Pthreads specifies that only the thread calling fork exists in the
224 child. ... Pthreads does not 'terminate' the other threads in a forked
225 process...They simply cease to exist. ... This is not a problem if
226 the child process is about to call exec to run a new program, but if
227 you use fork to clone a threaded program, beware that you may lose
228 access to memory, especially heap memory stored only as
229 thread-specific data values."
231 Since P/Invoke currently requires using thread local storage, once you
232 fork(2) you won't be able to invoke exec(2) from managed code (since that
233 would require a P/Invoke transition to call exec(2), which would require
234 TLS, which doesn't exist in the new process).
236 This can only be fixed by removing the TLS dependency on P/Invoke, which
237 isn't a priority (and may not be possible).
239 The workaround is to create a C function which does your fork(2)/exec(2)
240 (and any other functions such as daemon(3)) on your behalf, and P/Invoke
241 to call this C function.
243 2005-04-18 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
245 * Syscall.cs: Update comment specifying which functions belong in Syscall.
246 * UnixConvert.cs: Add XattrFlags conversion functions.
247 * UnixMarshal.cs: Remove warning about self-assignment.
249 2005-04-16 Daniel Drake <dsd@gentoo.org>
251 * Syscall.cs: Add bindings for extended attribute manipulation
253 2005-04-05 Miguel de Icaza <miguel@novell.com>
255 * Syscall.cs: Set entry point for sys_syslog to be syslog.
256 Include the syslog.h header in the generated map so that we
257 actually do the mapping.
259 2005-03-28 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
261 * UnixConvert.cs: Add ToFopenMode() methods, which convert FileMode/FileAccess
262 into an fopen(3) mode string. ToOpenFlags() should throw
263 ArgumentOutOfRangeException for argument violations.
264 * StdioFileStream.cs: Add constructor overloads accepting filename and
265 FileMode/FileAccess overloads; Compatibility fixes with regression tests;
266 remove IDisposable implementation since System.IO.Stream already
267 implements it (which calls Close() for us).
269 2005-03-17 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
271 * Stdlib.cs: Move Errno-related functionality into Stdlib from Syscall,
272 since (1) errno is part of C89, and (2) StdioFileStream will need it, and
273 StdioFileStream shouldn't use Syscall. Add [UnmanagedFunctionPointer]
274 attribute to SignalHandler for .NET 2.0 (since signal handlers use C
275 calling convention, not Stdcall).
276 * Syscall.cs: Move Errno-related functionality into Stdlib.
277 * UnixMarshal.cs: Use ERANGE not EPERM when figuring out appropriate
278 translator, since ERANGE is part of C99 and EPERM isn't. Use Stdlib
279 instead of Syscall for Errno-related functionality.
281 2005-02-02 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
283 * UnixFile.cs: Cope with changes in UnixStream.
284 * UnixStream.cs: Change FileDescriptor property to Handle for consistency.
285 * StdioFileStream.cs: Change FileStream property to Handle for consistency.
287 2005-02-02 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
289 * Syscall.cs: Remove public sys_ methods. Some were public by mistake, and
290 others so that users could manually marshal strings if desired. Manually
291 marshaling strings shouldn't be necessary, though, so remove them too.
293 2005-02-02 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
295 * StdioFileStream.cs: Fix Length property to actually return the size of the
296 file, not the # of bytes from the current position to EOF. Oops.
298 2005-01-31 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
300 * Stdlib.cs: Import "msvcrt", not "libc". These members are part of the
301 ANSI C standard, and thus should be present on Windows via msvcrt.dll
302 (except snprintf, until they catch up to C99). Change the calling
303 convention of all functions to Cdecl, as the .NET default is Stdcall.
304 Changing the calling convention isn't needed in Syscall, as it can only be
305 run on Unix platforms anyway, where the default is Cdecl.
306 * Syscall.cs: Add LIBC member that points to the real "libc"; we can't use
307 the imported definition from Stdlib as "msvcrt" doesn't exist on Unix.
309 2005-01-29 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
311 * Stdlib.cs: sys_* functions shouldn't be public.
313 2005-01-13 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
315 * make-map.cs: libMonoPosixHelper exports Mono_Posix prefixes, not Mono_Unix
316 prefixes, so change the type and namespace to generate compatible code.
317 * Syscall.cs: Change OpenFlags values so they match the Linux values.
319 2005-01-13 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
321 * Stdlib.cs: Use Stdlib.LIBC instead of "libc".
322 * StdioFileStream.cs: Add FilePosition property (not that I expect anyone to
323 use it) and Rewind() method.
325 2005-01-05 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
327 * StdioFileStream.cs: Added; System.IO.Stream wrapper for C FILE struct.
328 * Stdlib.cs: Correct visibility of ftell().
330 2005-01-05 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
332 * Stdlib.cs: Re-order declarations to match the order used in the
333 C99 Standard Annex B; Complete <stdio.h> exports (except for those not
334 worth supporting); Add non-"unsafe" versions of fread(3), fwrite(3) and
335 add some rudimentary buffer-overflow checking; Add <stdlib.h> exports such
336 as getenv(3), exit(3), rand(3), EXIT_SUCCESS, RAND_MAX, etc.
338 2005-01-03 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
340 * Syscall.cs: Update endfsent() and setfsent() declarations, as these must
341 now be implemented in MonoPosixHelper.
343 2005-01-01 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
345 * Stdlib.cs, Syscall.cs: Minimize duplicate declarations of
346 "MonoPosixHelper" for use in DllImport statements.
348 2005-01-01 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
350 * Stdlib.cs: Don't use C# v2 features; fixes build under CSC.EXE.
352 2004-12-30 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
354 * Stdlib.cs: On miguel's suggestion, rename Sighandler_t to SignalHandler.
356 2004-12-30 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
358 * Stdlib.cs: Implement all C89 <stdio.h> functions except for the scanf(3)
359 family. These are too dangerous to expose.
361 2004-12-30 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
363 * CdeclFunctions.cs: Remove warning about unused variable.
364 * Stdlib.cs: Make signal(2) sane and (hopefully) complete.
365 * Syscall.cs: Fix cuserid Obsolete message to reference correct class name.
366 * UnixProcess.cs: Remove warning about unused variable.
367 * UnixMarshal.cs: Remove warnings about unused variables.
369 2004-12-29 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
371 * UnixPath.cs: Add ReadSymbolicLink(), which takes an intelligent approach
372 to reading symlinks (since their contents may be any size, we grow the
373 buffer dynamically to fit them all, instead of assuming a maximum size).
374 * UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs: Remove MaxContentsSize.
376 2004-12-29 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
378 * UnixPath.cs: Add check for when symlink points to a full path name.
380 2004-12-29 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
382 * Syscall.cs: Fix Object.Equals implementations.
383 * UnixPath.cs: New & improved, with Testing! GetRealPath() is changed so
384 that it doesn't walk the entire path looking for symlinks, it just reads
385 the leaf. GetCompletRealPath() walks the entire path resolving symlinks.
386 GetCanonicalPath() added, which "cleans up" a path (removing extraneous
387 "." and ".." entries).
388 * UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs: Rename ContentsLength -> MaxContentsSize.
390 2004-12-28 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
392 * UnixFileSystemInfo.cs: Add a link(2) wrapper, CreateLink(). Strictly
393 speaking it's only "safe" to do this on files, but an exception will be
394 returned if the user tries to hard link directories (because of EPERM),
395 unless the user is root, in which case it should be allowed anyway...
397 2004-12-28 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
399 * CdeclFunctions.cs: Correct the comments for AMD64
400 * UnixDirectoryInfo.cs: override Name; add Parent & Root properties;
401 Correct Path usage (s/Path/FullPath/g).
402 * UnixDriveInfo.cs: Added. Based on .NET 2.0 System.IO.DriveInfo docs,
403 provides statvfs(2) and getfsfile(3) information about a mounted volume.
404 GetDrives() wraps getfsent(3), thus parsing /etc/fstab.
405 * UnixFile.cs: Use UnixConver.ToOpenFlags, deleting the local version.
406 * UnixFileInfo.cs: Use UnixConver.ToOpenFlags, deleting the local version;
407 override Name; add DirectoryName and Directory properties;
408 * UnixFileSystemInfo.cs: Make more .NET-like, using FullPath and
409 OriginalPath protected members, abstract Name property; Add
410 CreateSymbolicLink; Remove ReadLink (it's now
411 UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.Contents); Use lstat(2) for Create(string), so we
412 properly detect Symbolic Links.
413 * UnixPath.cs: Added; Path manipulation utility functions.
414 * UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs:
416 - override new abstract member Name;
417 - rename ReadLink to ContentsPath (and Contents) properties
418 (why "Contents"? Because readlink(2) says "readlink places the
419 contents of the symbolic link in the buffer...")
420 - Add CreateSymbolicLinkTo(), which creates a symlink to the specified
423 2004-12-28 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
425 * Stdlib.cs: Add syslog(3) to XPrintfFunctions; Add additional printf(3)
426 and fprintf(3) overload which properly escape the format string
427 (by using "%s" as the format for the user-supplied message).
428 * Syscall.cs: Add #regions for enummerations, structures, classes; Wrap
429 syslog(3) and related enumerations; fix operator!= on Dirent, Group;
430 wrap {f}statvfs(2); wrap <fstab.h> entries (getfsent(3), etc.).
431 * UnixConvert.cs: Add Syslog-releated enumeration translation functions;
432 Move ToOpenFlags here from UnixFile and UnixFileInfo.
433 * UnixMarshal.cs: Missing P/Invoke methods throw
434 EntryPointNotFoundException, not MissingMethodException; add
435 EscapeFormatString, which escapes printf-style format strings so that they
436 can be safely handed off to native code (avoiding stack overflow, etc);
437 make CreateExceptionForError internal.
439 2004-12-15 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
441 * Stdlib.cs: Add more <stdio.h> wrappers, such as fread(3) and fwrite(3).
442 These will be useful in implementing System.IO.Stream subclass for
443 reading/writing to a FILE*. Fix a typo in the realloc(3) DllImport.
444 * Syscall.cs: Fix the sys_kill and sys_crypt declarations.
445 * CdeclFunction.cs: Document calling convention problems on AMD64.
447 2004-11-18 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
449 * CdeclFunction.cs: Added.
450 * Stdlib.cs: Re-add printf(3) and fprintf(3). They may not be portable (the
451 jury is still out on that; the AMD64 SysV ABI looks like it should be
452 portable to AMD64 to my eyes), but they will work on *some* platforms, so
453 we should permit it. The new implementation takes a page out of
454 cocoa-sharp: use System.Reflection.Emit to generate a P/Invoke method at
455 runtime to invoke printf(3) or fprintf(3). This way, we can export a
456 params signature to C# code, permitting natural usage such as:
457 Stdlib.printf ("Hello, %s world! (%i)\n", "silly", 42);
458 * Syscall.cs: Mark which headers are complete, which functions still need
459 wrapping (for headers which have anything done to them), add #region
460 blocks for each header;
461 export mkfifo(3), fexecve(), getppid(2), setlogin(); fix sleep(3) export.
462 * UnixEnvironment.cs: Export a friendly getppid(2) wrapper.
463 GetParentProcessId isn't in UnixProcess as there's no way (that I know of)
464 to get the Parent's Parent, so it can't be a class member, and exposing it
465 as a static member of UnixProcess doesn't make sense to me, as it isn't
466 general. Added GetUserShells().
467 * UnixProcess.cs: Change constructor to internal, so it can be used from
470 2004-11-16 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
472 * Stdlib.cs: Remove printf(3) and fprintf(3). These are vararg/CDECL
473 functions, and it's not portable to call them in this manner.
474 (It's not portable because some architectures, such as AMD64, use a
475 "cookie" as part of the vararg calling sequence to help reduce buffer
476 overflow exploits. Trying to call vararg functions as if they were an
477 overloaded function will not properly set this hardware cookie, resulting
478 in a hardware exception. Talk to lupus for more information.)
480 2004-11-16 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
482 * Syscall.cs, UnixConvert.cs: Remove mount- and umount-related
483 functionality. Mount/umount is inherently non-portable (see the C code
484 for mount/umount), and trying to provide a consistent interface is
485 impossible. If you need mount/umount support, use the command-line
486 programs mount(1) and umount(1).
488 2004-11-16 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
490 + Lots o' Renames, as the namespace changed.
491 * PosixConvert.cs: Moved to UnixConvert.cs:
492 * PosixDirectory.cs: Moved to UnixDirectory.cs:

514 2004-11-15 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
516 * PosixUserInfo.cs: Make the PosixUserInfo(Passwd) constructor public;
517 override Object.GetHashCode and Object.Equals.
518 * PosixGroupInfo.cs: Make the PosixGroupInfo(Group) constructor public;
519 override Object.GetHashCode and Object.Equals.
520 * PosixIOException.cs: Use PosixMarshal.GetErrorDescription instead of
521 calling Syscall.strerror_r directly
522 * PosixMarshal.cs: Add GetErrorDescription. Strerror_r() isn't portable, so
523 GetErrorDescription() first tries strerror_r(), and if it fails falls back
526 - Seal the Dirent class. It has no virtual members, so there's no point
527 in it being non-sealed. Override Object.GetHashCode and Object.Equals.
528 - Seal the Group class. It has no virtual members, so there's no point
529 in it being non-sealed. Override Object.GetHashCode and Object.Equals.
530 Provide operator== and operator!=.
531 - Seal the Passwd class. It has no virtual members, so there's no point
532 in it being non-sealed. Override Object.GetHashCode and Object.Equals.
533 Provide operator== and operator!=.
534 - Remove strerror_r() convenience overload. This is now
535 PosixMarshal.GetErrorDescription().
537 2004-11-12 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
539 * Syscall.cs: Export time-related functions (gettimeofday, settimeofday,
540 utime, utimes), mknod.
542 2004-11-07 Atsushi Enomoto <atsushi@ximian.com>
544 * PosixEnvironment.cs : csc build fix. see bug #69195.
545 * PosixStream.cs : csc build fix. see bug #69196.
547 2004-11-05 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
549 * PosixConvert.cs: New file; conversion functions for Mono.Posix types.
550 * PosixDirectory.cs: New file; Friendly wrapper over directory information.
551 * PosixDirectoryInfo.cs: New file; Friendly wrapper over directory information.
552 * PosixEnvironment.cs: New file; Friendly wrapper over environment information.
553 * PosixFile.cs: New file; Friendly wrapper over file information.
554 * PosixFileInfo.cs: New file; Friendly wrapper over file information.
555 * PosixFileSystemInfo.cs: New file; Friendly wrapper over `stat'.
556 * PosixGroup.cs: New file; User Group-related functionality
557 * PosixGroupInfo.cs: New file; User Group-related functionality
558 * PosixIOException.cs: New file; Exception for POSIX-generated exceptions.
559 * PosixMarshal.cs: New file; utility functions for marshaling, etc.
560 * PosixProcess.cs: New file; Friendly wrapper over process information.
561 * PosixStream.cs: New file; Friendly wrapper over file descriptors.
562 * PosixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs: New file; Friendly wrapper over symbolic links.
563 * PosixUser.cs: New file; Friendly wrapper over user information.
564 * PosixUserInfo.cs: New file; Friendly wrapper over user information.
565 * Stdlib.cs: New file; C standard library exports.
566 * Syscall.cs: Effective re-write.
567 - Organize exports by header file
568 - add additional enumerations (Error for the E* error values, etc.)
569 - always explicitly specify enumeration underlying type
570 - Use a new wrapping infrastructure so that ABI-stable types are exported
571 - For example, size_t is exported as ulong, not IntPtr.
572 - Wrap more functions, and wrap them better (such as getpwnam).
573 - This release is NOT backward compatible. Many names are the same, and
574 hopefully they're still compatible, but no effort was made to maintain
575 compatibility. For example, FileMode was removed and replaced with
576 FilePermissions, to avoid a name conflict with System.IO.FileMode.
577 - Change umount() to use MonoPosixHelper: portability fix for Mac OS X.
578 * make-map.cs: Another effective re-write, to clean up the code, produce
579 better output, and produce more output. For example, most of
580 PosixConvert can be auto-generated, so it is (modulo version delays and
581 bootstrap issues). `map.c' is now conditional on all macros, and has
582 error checking for invalid/unsupported values.
584 2004-09-18 Jackson Harper <jackson@ximian.com>
586 * Syscall.cs: Add support for poll ().
588 2004-09-18 Jackson Harper <jackson@ximian.com>
590 * make-map.cs: Use field value not name for #defines.
592 2004-09-14 Loren Bandiera <lorenb@mmgsecurity.com>
594 * Syscall.cs: Added method for getpwnam which uses Passwd
596 * macros.c: Helper function for getpwnam
597 (In committing, Josh Tauberer also added getpwuid.)
599 2004-07-09 Dick Porter <dick@ximian.com>
601 * PeerCred.cs: Get the unix socket peer credentials.
603 2004-05-26 Miguel de Icaza <miguel@ximian.com>
605 * Syscall.cs: Do not let the runtime handle strings, as we do not
606 own those strings, we must transform the char * into a string
609 2004-05-03 Miguel de Icaza <miguel@ximian.com>
611 * Syscall.cs: Add symlink
613 2004-04-19 Miguel de Icaza <miguel@ximian.com>
615 * Syscall.cs: Use hex values for FileMode, since C# does not have
616 an octal integer mode.
618 2004-03-30 Joshua Tauberer <tauberer@for.net>
620 * Added readlink, strerror, opendir, readdir, closedir
621 * Added Mono.Posix.Stat.UnixToDateTime(long unixtime) --> DateTime
623 2004-03-11 Joshua Tauberer <tauberer@for.net>
625 * Syscall.cs: Removed argument to getgid that shouldn't be there.
626 Added getusername, getgroupname which wrap getpwuid, getgrgid
627 without dealing with pointers to structures.
628 Removed duplicate FileMode enum nested in Syscall class.
629 Added stat and lstat, which use StatMode enumeration
630 (like FileMode but nicer and complete) and Stat struct.
631 * macros.c: Helper functions for getpwuid, getgrgid, stat, lstat.
633 2004-01-07 Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>
635 * Syscall.cs: moved the assembly attribute to a proper place
637 * make-map.cs: use reflection to invoke the properties, as it
638 fails under MS runtime.
641 2004-01-05 Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>
643 * Syscall.cs: moved assembly attribute and added unsafe block to fix
644 the build on windows.
646 2003-11-11 Wojciech Polak <polak@gnu.org
648 * Syscall.cs: Applied patch from Wojciech Polak <polak@gnu.org> to
651 2003-05-16 Dick Porter <dick@ximian.com>
653 * UnixEndPoint.cs: New property to get and set the filename, like
654 the IPEndPoint has for the IP address. Also implement ToString().
656 Tue Apr 29 16:53:56 CEST 2003 Paolo Molaro <lupus@ximian.com>
658 * Syscall.cs: remove the unsafe mess.
660 2003-02-05 Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>
663 * UnixEndPoint.cs: first file.
