1 2006-10-24 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
3 * MapAttribute.cs: Moved to ../Mono.Unix.Native/MapAttribute.cs.
5 2006-08-21 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
7 * UnixStream.cs: .Close() shouldn't close(2) the fd unless owner==true;
8 .Flush() should be a no-op (as System.IO.Stream.Flush doesn't gaurantee
9 that .Flush() actually flush to disk, and .Flush() slows things down a
10 lot); see: http://joeshaw.org/2006/08/21/415.
12 2006-08-16 Alp Toker <alp@atoker.com>
15 * AbstractUnixEndPoint.cs: Second half of the fix for #79084.
16 Add support for the abstract namespace, and update existing file-based
17 UnixEndPoint (de)serialization to reflect changes in the runtime.
19 2006-07-02 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
21 * UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs: Oops. CreateSymbolicLinkTo() should create
22 FullPath, not OriginalName. This was fixed in one overload in January,
23 but I missed an overload. :-/
25 2006-07-02 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
27 * UnixPath.cs: Follow .NET's System.IO.Path.Combine() behavior, and "reset"
28 the generated path if any argument beings with a path root --
29 UnixPath.Combine("/a", "/b") should return "/b", not "/a/b". Fixes #78580.
31 2006-04-21 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
33 * UnixFileSystemInfo.cs: rename Create() to GetFileSystemEntry(), and make
34 it public (so that other's don't need to worry about the
35 Syscall.lstat()-and-switch to create a UnixFileSystemInfo instance).
36 * UnixDirectoryInfo.cs, UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs:
37 s/Create/GetFileSystemEntry/g (to cope with above change).
39 2006-03-09 Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>
41 * UnixEndPoint.cs: added GetHashCode/Equals.
43 2006-03-06 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
45 * UnixDriveInfo.cs: Remove requirement that mountPoints be avaible via
46 getfsfile(3). This isn't always the case -- in particular drives mounted
47 via HAL and other mechanisms won't be listed in /etc/fstab, and thus won't
48 be returned via getfsfile(3). If getfsfile(3) fails, then we "guess" on
49 the drive format and volume label.
50 * UnixStream.cs: RefreshStat() should assert that the instance hasn't been
52 * UnixEnvironment.cs (GetConfigurationValue, GetConfigurationString): Fix
55 2006-02-23 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
57 * UnixFileSystemInfo.cs: Create() should return a UnixFileInfo if the file
58 doesn't exist. This allows callers to use UnixFileInfo.Exists to see if
59 the file exists, and behaves more rationally e.g. if the directory
60 contents changes while calling UnixDirectoryInfo.GetFileSystemEntries(),
61 we'll get a UnixFileInfo entry that doesn't exist instead of an exception
62 terminating the entire array creation.
63 * UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs: [Obsolete] the Contents property -- this property
64 *always* creates a new object if HasContents=true, and since a
65 UnixFileSystemInfo instance is (104+2*(sizeof(void*))+1) bytes (~113 bytes
66 on 32-bit platforms), we don't want to create these frequently. Add a
67 GetContents() method as the replacement, to make it (slightly) more
68 explicit that information won't be cached (and thus should be cached by
69 the caller, if appropriate). GetContents() throws an exception if
70 HasContents=false instead of returning null; this change brings the
71 implementation in line with the documentation.
73 2006-02-18 Alp Toker <alp@atoker.com>
75 * UnixEndPoint.cs: Avoid truncation of last two bytes of SocketAddress
78 2006-01-26 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
80 * UnixMarshal.cs: Check for null arguments in PtrToString() and
83 2006-01-24 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
85 * UnixMarshal.cs (StringToHeap): Return IntPtr.Zero if `s' is null.
87 2006-01-24 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
89 * UnixMarshal.cs (StringToHeap): Check for null arguments.
91 2006-01-20 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
93 * UnixDriveInfo.cs: Properties should generate an InvalidOperationException,
94 not an IOException. Users can use IsReady to avoid exception generation.
95 * UnixIOException.cs: Create a custom message that embeds the error name
96 within the text, e.g. "Permission denied [EACCES]."
97 * UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs: This really should create the file FullPath, not
98 OriginalPath. Created files shouldn't ever be relative to the current
99 working directory, as this can change at any time.
101 2006-01-15 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
103 * UnixUserInfo.cs: The UnixUserInfo(Native.Passwd) constructor and
104 ToPasswd() should clone the underlying Native.Passwd, so
105 that it doesn't get changed from underneath it.
106 * UnixGroupInfo.cs: The UnixGroupInfo(Native.Group) constructor should also
107 clone the provided Native.Group instance.
109 2006-01-14 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
111 * UnixGroupInfo.cs: ToGroup() should clone the underlying Native.Group, so
112 that it doesn't get changed from underneath it.
114 2006-01-13 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
116 * Catalog.cs, UnixMarshal.cs: Throw `UnixIOException(Native.Errno.ENOMEM)`
117 instead of System.OutOfMemoryException. OOME should be reserved for use
118 by the CLR (according to FxDG).
120 2006-01-12 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
122 * UnixPath.cs: Add ReadLink() and TryReadLink() methods.
124 2006-01-12 Miguel de Icaza <miguel@novell.com>
126 * PeerCred.cs: Do not define PeerCredData as this is a structure
127 known to the runtime. Instead use the Mono.Posix.PeerCredData
130 2006-01-10 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
132 * Catalog.cs: Don't use
133 System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.StringToHGlobalAuto(), use
134 UnixMarshal.StringToHeap(). We require that the converted string be in
135 UTF-8 format, but .NET's Marshal.StringToHGlobalAuto converts to the local
136 code page, *not* UTF-8 (Mono's does UTF-8). UnixMarshal.StringToHeap
137 *always* does UTF-8, so use that instead.
139 2006-01-09 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
141 * FileTypes.cs: Remove [Flags] attribute -- these aren't bitfield values.
142 * UnixFileSystemInfo.cs: Fix Is<<Type>> properties -- before it would
143 erroneously say that a symlink was a character device. (This is because
144 device values are *not* [Flags] values, but code was assuming they were.)
145 * UnixGroupInfo.cs: Clone the string[] returned from GetMemberNames(). We
146 don't want callers to change the underlying list.
148 2006-01-07 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
150 * UnixMarshal.cs: *Actually* put things in alphabetical order (like the
151 comment says). I can speak english, really I can.
153 2006-01-06 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
155 * Catalog.cs: s/libintl/intl/g, since intl.dll is used by GTK+ on Windows,
156 not libintl.dll (according to
157 http://www.gimp.org/~tml/gimp/win32/downloads.html).
159 2006-01-03 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
161 * UnixMarshal.cs (CreateExceptionForError): Don't map ENOMEM to
162 System.OutOfMemoryException. OOME should be reserved for use by the CLR.
163 Return a UnixIOException instead (default behavior).
165 2006-01-02 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
167 * StdioFileStream.cs: Shut up FxCop - add a GC.KeepAlive to
169 * UnixClient.cs, UnixListener.cs: Use System.MarshalByRefObject as the base
170 class. These types implement IDisposable and have a finalizer, so if an
171 instance of these types were sent to another AppDomain they'd previously
172 marshal by copy, which could lead to a double release of an unmanaged
173 resource -- potential badness. Using MarshalByRefObject fixes this.
175 2006-01-02 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
177 * UnixMarshal.cs: s/EACCESS/EACCES/g. I can't read.
179 2006-01-02 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
181 * StdioFileStream.cs, UnixDirectoryInfo.cs, UnixEnvironment.cs,
182 UnixFileInfo.cs, UnixFileSystemInfo.cs, UnixGroupInfo.cs,
183 UnixIOException.cs, UnixMarshal.cs, UnixProcess.cs, UnixStream.cs,
184 UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs, UnixUserInfo.cs: Remove Obsolete API.
185 * CdeclFunction.cs, IncludeAttribute.cs, Stdlib.cs, Syscall.cs,
186 UnixConvert.cs, UnixDirectory.cs, UnixFile.cs, UnixGroup.cs,
188 * UnixPath.cs: Remove InvalidPathChars; use GetInvalidPathChars() instead.
189 * FileTypes.cs: Remove Obsolete API
191 2006-01-02 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
193 * FileAccessPermissions.cs: Remove UserMask, GroupMask, OtherMask values.
194 * FileSpecialAttributes.cs: Remove AllAttributes member; it shouldn't be
195 public. Use UnixFileSystemInfo.AllSpecialAttributes instead.
196 * StdioFileStream.cs: Open files in binary mode, not text;
197 Fix exception message for StdioFileStream(path, mode) mode param check.
198 * UnixDirectoryInfo.cs: Add Create(FileAccessPermissions) overload; change
199 GetFileSystemEntries() to include the directory name that the files came
200 from (otherwise they're in the current working direcetory, which they
202 * UnixFileInfo.cs: Add Create(FileAccessPermissions) overload; Add better
203 argument checking to several Open() overloads.
204 * UnixFileSystemInfo.cs: Add AllSpecialAttributes, AllFileTypes members;
205 FullPath member should invalidate instance if path changes; Change return
206 type of GetFileStatus for maintenance/better documentation; ToStat()
207 should ensure that the instance is valid first.
208 * UnixMarshal.cs: Add additional Errno values to CreateExceptionForError();
209 reformat CreateExceptionForError for maintenance.
210 * UnixPath.cs: Obsolete InvalidPathChars -- FxCop never liked it, and now I
211 know why it didn't like it (thank you Framework Design Guidelines!).
212 * UnixStream.cs: Use UnixFileSystemInfo.AllSpecialAttributes, not
213 FileSpecialAttributes.AllAttributes (which was removed).
214 * UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs: Change return type of GetFileStatus().
216 2005-12-28 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
218 * FileHandleOperations.cs: Check for null references.
220 2005-12-28 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
222 * UnixMarshal.cs: Errno.EBADF should also trigger a ArgumentException.
224 2005-12-27 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
226 * FileHandleOperations.cs, FileTypes.cs, Stdlib.cs, Syscall.cs,
227 UnixConvert.cs, UnixDirectory.cs, UnixDirectoryInfo.cs, UnixDriveInfo.cs,
228 UnixEnvironment.cs, UnixFile.cs, UnixFileInfo.cs, UnixFileSystemInfo.cs,
229 UnixGroup.cs, UnixGroupInfo.cs, UnixIOException.cs, UnixMarshal.cs,
230 UnixPath.cs, UnixPipes.cs, UnixProcess.cs, UnixStream.cs,
231 UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs, UnixUser.cs, UnixUserInfo.cs: Mark to-be-removed
232 API with [Obsolete(IsError=true)] (permits compiler assistance for finding
233 obsolete code); Migrate to the Mono.Unix.Native API.
234 * StdioFileStream.cs: Add non-Obsolete overloads for SaveFilePosition &
235 RestoreFilePosition (oops). Migrate to Mono.Unix.Native API.
237 2005-12-07 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
239 * UnixMarshal.cs: Add PtrToStringUnix() -- specialized PtrToString method
240 which is significantly faster than PtrToString(p, UnixEncoding.Instance).
241 Use System.String..ctor(sbyte*, int, int, Encoding) to avoid the byte[]
242 intermediate copy -- much faster. Fix PtrToString() so that it will
243 accept an IntPtr containing 0 characters, and don't duplicate strings
246 2005-11-18 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
248 * Catalog.cs, UnixDirectory.cs, UnixDirectoryInfo.cs, UnixDriveInfo.cs,
249 UnixEnvironment.cs, UnixFile.cs, UnixFileInfo.cs, UnixFileSystemInfo.cs,
250 UnixGroup.cs, UnixGroupInfo.cs, UnixProcess.cs, UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs,
251 UnixUser.cs, UnixUserInfo.cs: Change types of [Obsolete] members for
252 consistency and CLS compliance; Mono.Unix.Native type migration.
253 * FileTypes.cs: s/Special/Device/g (CharacterSpecial ==> CharacterDevice).
254 The *Special was a BSD convention, while UnixFileSystemInfo uses *Device
255 in property names, and these should be consistent. Changing the enum is
256 simpler than changing the UnixFileSystemInfo properties.
257 * UnixIOException.cs: s/error/errno/g (FxCop suggestion); change type of
259 * UnixMarshal.cs: s/error/errno/g (FxCop suggestion); Mono.Unix.Native
262 2005-11-08 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
264 * Catalog.cs: Exception safety improvements (don't let memory leak!); check
265 for errors with bindtextdomain(3) et. al.
267 2005-11-08 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
269 * UnixPipes.cs: Provide Equals, GetHashCode, and operator==/operator!= to
270 conform with FxCop guidelines for structures.
272 2005-11-03 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
274 * FileTypes.cs, UnixFileSystemInfo.cs: s/FIFO/Fifo/ to follow .NET
275 naming conventions (as reported by FxCop).
277 2005-11-01 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
279 * UnixDirectoryInfo.cs, UnixDriveInfo.cs, UnixEnvironment.cs,
280 UnixFileSystemInfo.cs, UnixGroupInfo.cs, UnixProcess.cs, UnixUserInfoc.cs:
281 Obsolete statements now specify in what way the return type will change.
282 * IncludeAttribute.cs: Obsoleted. It's an error to use it now.
284 2005-11-01 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
286 * FileAccessPattern.cs: Change enumeration names to match Robert Love's more
287 sensible names from his FileAdvise class used in Beagle
288 (UseSoon --> PreLoad, WillNotUse --> FlushCache).
289 * FileHandleOperations.cs: Added; contains AdviseFileAccessPattern()
290 (moved from UnixFile.cs).
291 * UnixDirectory.cs: Obsolete the class; use UnixDirectoryInfo instead.
292 * UnixDirectoryInfo.cs: Add GetCurrentDirectory(), SetCurrentDirectory().
293 * UnixFile.cs: Obsolete the class; use UnixFileInfo, FileHandleOperations,
294 or UnixPipes instead.
295 * UnixFileSystemInfo.cs: Add ToStat() method.
296 * UnixGroup.cs: Obsolete the class; use UnixGroupInfo instead.
297 * UnixGroupInfo.cs: Obsolete & Replace constructor, add GetMemberNames(),
299 * UnixPipes.cs: Added (type moved from UnixFile.cs).
300 * UnixStream.cs: AdviseFileAccessPattern() uses FileHandleOperations now.
301 * UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs: Implement TryReadLink() to avoid constant buffer
302 re-sizing. Stevens states that the file size of the symlink is the number
303 of bytes needed to hold the symlink, so this should be faster.
304 * UnixUser.cs: Obsolete the class; use UnixUserInfo instead.
305 * UnixUserInfo.cs: Obsolete & Replace constructor; add useful static members
306 from UnixUser such as GetLoginName(), GetLocalUsers(), etc.
308 2005-10-27 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
310 * UnixEnvironment.cs: Add RealUser, RealGroup, EffectiveUser, EffectiveGroup
311 properties; [Obsolete] necessary methods and provide replacements.
312 * UnixStream.cs: Add OwnerUser(Id), OwnerGroup(Id) properties;
313 improve Stat handling.
315 2005-10-26 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
317 * UnixEncoding.cs: Change EscapeByte to 0x0000, as suggested by Michal
319 * UnixPath.cs: Remove '\0' from InvalidPathChars, since U+0000 is now used
320 as the path escape character for marshaling purposes.
322 2005-10-26 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
324 * UnixMarshal.cs: Obsolete heap-related methods to have a Heap suffix
325 (AllocHeap, FreeHeap, etc.), and change StringToAlloc() to be
326 StringToHeap(). This creates a stronger name association between related
329 2005-10-26 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
331 * UnixIOException.cs: Add (string) and (string, Exception) constructors to
332 silence FxCop; re-work logic so we lookup the error string at construction
333 time and use this as the message for the base class.
335 2005-10-25 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
337 * Stdlib.cs, Syscall.cs: Filenames need to be marshaled through the
338 FileNameMarshaler, which will encode/decode filenames with UnixEncoding.
339 * UnixEncoding.cs: Added (copied from
340 ../../corlib/System.Text/UTF8Encoding.cs); a hack to permit handling of
341 arbitrarily encoded filenames. It attempts to decode a byte[] array as
342 UTF-8, and if the decode fails it prefixes each byte with
343 UnixEncoding.EscapeByte (\uFFFF).
344 * UnixMarshal.cs: Use UnixEncoding as the default encoding, and special-case
345 UnixEncoding to use Stdlib.strlen() for native string lengths.
347 2005-10-21 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
349 * FileAccessPattern.cs: Added
350 * UnixFile.cs, UnixStream.cs: Deprecate all the Advise* methods (lots!)
351 and replace with 6 methods which take a FileAccessPattern enum.
353 2005-10-19 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
355 * FileAccessPermissions.cs, FileSpecialAttributes.cs, FileTypes.cs: Added.
356 * UnixFileSystemInfo.cs, UnixStream.cs: Replace the old Permission property
357 with 4 new properties: Protection (for the Native.FilePermissions value),
358 FileAccessPermissions (for rwxrwxrwx info), FileSpecialAttributes (for
359 set-user-id, set-group-id, sticky), and FileTypes (directory, socket...).
360 The new enumeration types have nicer CLS-compliant names.
362 2005-10-17 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
364 * UnixMarshal.cs: Fix GetIntXxBufferLength to require fewer
365 Marshal.ReadIntXx() calls; Fix PtrToString so that
366 ``"foo" == PtrToString (StringToAlloc("foo",enc),enc)'' is true for
369 2005-10-17 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
371 * UnixFileSystemInfo.cs: Add OwnerUserId and OwnerGroupId properties.
373 2005-10-17 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
375 * UnixDriveInfo.cs, UnixEnvironment.cs, UnixFile.cs, UnixFileSystemInfo.cs,
376 UnixGroup.cs, UnixStream.cs, UnixUser.cs: Don't use SetLastError(), since
377 it's use is (1) incorrect, and (2) will be going away with the move to
378 Mono.Unix.Native.Syscall. Instead use the Native.Syscall.* APIs which
381 2005-10-17 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
383 * UnixGroup.cs, UnixGroupInfo.cs, UnixFile.cs, UnixFileSystemInfo.cs,
384 UnixStream.cs, UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs, UnixUser.cs, UnixUserInfo.cs:
385 Start migrating uid/gid to long (from uint) for CLS compliance.
386 (Full migration must wait 'til after the next release as this would
387 require changes to existing members.)
388 * UnixEnvironment.cs: Above, and add RealUserId/RealGroupId and
389 EffectiveUserId/EffectiveGroupId.
391 2005-10-14 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
393 * Catalog.cs: Create a constructor and mark it [Obsolete]. It will be made
394 private after the next release.
395 * UnixFile.cs, UnixStream.cs: Deal with Mono.Unix.Native type name changes.
396 * UnixFileSystemInfo.cs: [Obsolete] more members; Deal with Mono.Unix.Native
398 * Syscall.cs: Create maps for PathConf, SysConf, ConfStr again; fpathconf(),
399 pathconf(), and sysconf() should call Native.Syscall since the
400 MonoPosixHelper.so helpers have changed.
402 2005-10-13 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
404 * UnixMarshal.cs: More/better StringToAlloc/PtrToString which take a
405 System.Text.Encoding instance for proper string marshaling.
406 - PtrToString(string,Encoding) is particularly tricky due to variable
408 - Fix StringToAlloc so that it works properly with UTF-16 encodings
409 (we need a terminating null 16-bit word, not a null byte).
410 - StringToAlloc overload for doing substrings.
412 2005-10-12 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
414 * UnixStream.cs: Check for EROFS and EINVAL in Flush(). Snorp was getting
415 an exception when he created a UnixStream around a socket, because
416 sockets can't be flushed. It should be acceptable to create a UnixStream
417 around a socket, so don't throw an exception in this scenario.
419 2005-10-06 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
421 * UnixDirectory.cs, UnixDirectoryInfo.cs UnixFile.cs, UnixFileSystemInfo.cs,
422 UnixGroupInfo.cs, UnixIOException.cs, UnixStream.cs, UnixUserInfo.cs:
423 API Review: Obsolete appropriate members and add appropriate overloads for
424 pending move to Mono.Unix.Native types.
425 * UnixMarshal.cs: API Review; add StringToAlloc().
427 2005-09-26 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
429 * UnixFileSystemInfo.cs: Exists shouldn't use access(2), as (1) Exists isn't
430 virtual, and (2) access(2) errors if you try to access(2) a symlink which
431 points nowhere. Use (l)stat(2) instead, via GetFileStatus(), as this lets
432 UnixSymbolicLinkInfo behave properly.
433 * UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs: The Contents property should return null if the
434 symlink target doesn't exist.
436 2005-09-20 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
438 * Syscall.cs: Add [Map] to AccessMode and MmapProt, as the Mono.Unix.Native
439 replacements go by different names (AccessModes, MmapProts), but we need
440 to continue generating the mapping code for these types (backward compat).
442 2005-09-20 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
444 * CdeclFunction.cs: [Obsolete]d by Mono.Unix.Native.CdeclFunction.
445 * make-map.cs: Remove.
446 * Stdlib.cs: [Obsolete] the types; use the Mono.Unix.Native.* types instead.
447 * StdioFileStream.cs: Add GC.KeepAlive statements to prevent premature GC's
449 * Syscall.cs: Remove [Map] attribute from all types; [CLSCompliant(false)]
450 work; [Obsolete] all types and suggest using the Mono.Unix.Native.*
451 replacements; remove [IncludeAttribute] -- superseded by
452 Mono.Unix.Native/Syscall.cs's [HeaderAttribte] for CLS compliance.
453 * UnixConvert.cs: [Obsolete]d by Mono.Unix.Native.NativeConvert.
454 * UnixDirectory.cs, UnixDriveInfo.cs, UnixEnvironment.cs,
455 UnixGroup.cs, UnixGroupInfo.cs,
456 UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs, UnixUser.cs, UnixUserInfo.cs:
457 Add [CLSCompliant(false)] as necessary.
458 * UnixFile.cs, UnixDirectory.cs, UnixFileInfo.cs, UnixFileSystemInfo.cs:
459 [CLSCompliant(false)], addition of method overloads for [Obsolete]d types,
460 warn about changing return types.
461 * UnixProcess.cs, UnixStream.cs: Add [CLSCompliant(false)] as necessary,
462 and warn about changing property types.
464 2005-09-02 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
466 * Stdlib.cs: Cache delegates passed to Stdlib.signal() so that they survive
467 garbage collections. Delegates can be removed by calling Stdlib.signal()
468 again with one of the Stdlib.SIG_* values (or the original return value of
470 * UnixUser.cs, UnixGroup.cs, UnixEnvironment.cs: Clarify "Id" (int) vs.
471 "Name" (string) differences by always using a Id or Name suffix.
473 2005-07-01 Daniel Drake <dsd@gentoo.org>
475 * Syscall.cs: The entire extended attribute API now goes through MPH, to
476 be shared between both Linux's and FreeBSD's similar EA implementations.
478 2005-06-29 Miguel de Icaza <miguel@ximian.com>
480 * StdioFileStream.cs: Only flush if we do not own the handle, as
481 fclose does a flush internally.
483 2005-06-29 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
485 * UnixEnvironment: Add User, Login properties.
486 * Syscall.cs: Add locking around cuserid, crypt, encrypt, getlogin.
488 2005-06-29 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
490 * Syscall.cs: SyslogFacility shouldn't be [Flags] either. Sigh.
491 Thanks to Vorobiev Maksim for pointing this out.
492 * make-map.cs: Don't generate conversion code for [Obsolete] enum members.
493 This assumes that (1) the enum member's value is invalid, or (2) a
494 corrected member with the same value exists. This fix allows us to
495 obsolete invalid members (instead of removing them) without screwing up
496 the generated code -- consider LOG_USRE, the mis-spelling of LOG_USER.
497 Since SyslogFacility was (incorrectly) a [Flags] enum, since both LOG_USER
498 and LOG_USRE had the same value, we'd get a EINVAL error trying to convert
499 a valid value, since LOG_USRE would exist, would be checked for, and the
500 check would succeed (since it had the same value as LOG_USER).
501 This change allows us to be slightly more permissive with versioning.
503 2005-06-28 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
505 * Syscall.cs: correct value of LOG_CRON (it shouldn't be identical to
506 LOG_UUCP). SyslogLevel shouldn't have [Flags]. Move LOG_USER to be
507 before LOG_USRE so that the generated map code doesn't return EINVAL when
508 LOG_USER is specified.
510 2005-06-15 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
512 * Syscall.cs: s/LOG_USRE/LOG_USER/. Fixes #75274.
513 Thanks to Martin Honermeyer.
515 2005-06-09 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
517 * make-map.cs: Look for [Obsolete] members, and mark the UnixConvert
518 conversion functions with the same [Obsolete] message. This should permit
519 more graceful deprecation of enumerations in the future (rather than just
522 2005-06-08 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
524 * Syscall.cs: Add execvp(2). (This should have been added with the other
525 exec(2) additions...).
527 2005-06-08 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
529 * Syscall.cs: Update comment with correct exception type.
530 * UnixConvert.cs: Rename ToFilePermissions(string) to
531 FromOctalPermissionString; Add ToOctalPermissionString,
532 FromUnixPermissionString, ToUnixPermissionString.
533 * UnixMarshal.cs: Remove ErrorMarshal.HaveStrerror_r and
534 UnixMarshal.IsErrorDescriptionThreadSafe. strerror(3) is now thread-safe
535 (from managed code, at least). Update comment.
537 2005-06-07 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
539 * UnixFileSystemInfo.cs: Don't use lstat(2), use stat(2). This fits with
540 expectations better -- if you create a UnixFileInfo() on a symlink, you
541 want to get the target's information, not the symlink's info. Add
542 GetFileStatus so UnixSymbolicLinkInfo can override this behavior.
543 * UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs: Implement GetFileStatus() (which calls lstat(2)).
545 2005-06-07 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
547 * Syscall.cs: Document naming conventions.
549 2005-06-05 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
551 * make-map.cs: Change automatic "ifdef HAVE_<header>" support prefix to
552 "ah:" from ">". I hadn't known about ">", and "ah:" is (somewhat) more
554 * Syscall.cs: Change IncludeAttribute to put all headers/defines one/line.
555 It's easier to read this way. Add "ah:sys/xattr.h" to the headers.
557 2005-06-03 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
559 * Stdlib.cs: Add sanity checking to snprintf(3) to avoid buffer overflows.
561 2005-06-02 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
563 * StdioFileStream.cs: Remove FilePosition property & replace with
564 SaveFilePosition/RestoreFilePosition methods. Since FilePosition has a
565 finalizer, it's not right to have implicitly created instances.
567 - FilePosition: GC.SuppressFinalize() should be last in Dispose()
568 (following .NET guidelines).
569 - Syscall: Add locking around functions most likely to be thread unsafe.
570 This should provide some level of thread-safety to managed code.
571 * Syscall.cs: Add locking around functions most likely to be thread unsafe;
572 add mkstemp(3) export.
573 * UnixEnvironment.cs: GetUserShells should be atomic (from managed code).
574 * UnixGroup.cs: GetLocalGroups should be atomic (from managed code).
575 * UnixGroupInfo.cs: Add ToGroup() method to retrieve underlying Group info.
576 * UnixUser.cs: GetLocalUsers should be atomic (from managed code).
577 * UnixUserInfo.cs: Add ToPasswd () method to retrieve underlying Passwd info.
578 * UnixDriveInfo.cs: GetDrives should be atomic (from managed code).
580 2005-05-31 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
582 * Stdlib.cs: Add comment for atexit(3) so I don't try to add it.
583 * Syscall.cs: Add fcntl(2) overload which takes DirectoryNotifyFlags (so
584 that *something* accepts a DirectoryNotifyFlags); Fix IncludeAttribute
585 header files (">sys/poll.h" doesn't exist);
586 Add additional <sys/mman.h> functions mmap, munmap, msync, mlock, munlock,
587 mlockall, munlockall, mremap, mincore, remap_file_pages.
588 * UnixConvert.cs: Add conversion functions for MmapFlags, MmapProt, MsyncFlags,
589 MlockallFlags, MremapFlags.
591 2005-05-31 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
593 * Syscall.cs, UnixConvert.cs: Rename LockFlags to LockfCommand. This is a more
594 consistent naming, and it's more correct (they weren't flags in the first place).
596 2005-05-18 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
598 * Stdlib.cs: Correct Mono_Posix_Stdlib_InvokeSignalHandler export.
600 2005-05-18 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
602 * make-map.cs: Process the Mono.Posix namespace as well as Mono.Unix; add
603 mapping for Boolean => int for native type conversion.
605 2005-05-18 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
607 * make-map.cs: Add a MphPrototypeFileGenerator, which looks for DllImport
608 methods across all types and generates a C header file declaration for
609 those methods. This allows us to ensure consistency between
610 Mono.Posix.dll and MonoPosixHelper.so. Rename WrapperFileGenerator to
611 ConvertFileGenerator (it generates UnixConvert).
612 * MapAttribute.cs, IncludeAttribute.cs: Make these internal -- there's no
613 reason for external users to even know these exist.
614 * StdioFileStream.cs: Move GC.SuppressFinalize call to be last Dispose()
615 call. This follows current design guidelines, and allows an exception to
616 be thrown from Dispose() without un-registering the finalizer.
617 * Syscall.cs: Change method declarations to match MonoPosixHelper, etc.
618 - posix_fallocate(P) takes a size_t
619 - mis-spelled settimeofday(2), sethostname(2)
620 - exec(2) can be public; it's safe to call
621 - change lseek(2) so int's are passed to MonoPosixHelper.so, not shorts
622 - We can't allow two incompatible prototypes to exist (since C allows
623 only one prototype, and we're cross-checking prototypes now). Change
624 utime(2) so only one prototype is needed.
625 * UnixMarshal.cs: ErrorMarshal.ErrorTranslator and ErrorMarshal.Translate
626 shouldn't be public; make them internal.
627 * UnixStream.cs: Remove `unsafe` code block when a "safe" alternative works;
628 Close() should also call GC.SuppressFinalize.
630 2005-05-12 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
632 * Syscall.cs: The Statvfs structure should contain a MountFlags enumeration,
633 not a ulong (we can "safely" do this since POSIX defines some values for
634 f_flag, so we should be kind and expose them).
635 * UnixConvert.cs: Add MountFlags conversion functions.
637 2005-05-02 Joe Shaw <joeshaw@novell.com>
639 * UnixListener.cs (Init): Remove the call to Cleanup() and the
640 method itself, which was not supposed to be here. We try to
641 connect to the socket if it exists instead of deleting it
644 2005-04-30 Ben Maurer <bmaurer@ximian.com>
646 * Stdlib.cs: Comment out usage of `UnmanagedFunctionPointer'. It
647 isn't supported in the runtime -- it throws an assert -- so better
648 not to use it at all for now.
650 2005-04-29 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
652 * UnixConvert.cs: Fix time_t -> DateTime conversions. time_t should be
653 assumed to be in the local time zone, so don't mess with UTC shifts.
654 This allows Mono.Unix to produce sane output (e.g. identical to ls(1) or
655 stat(1), instead of several hours different).
657 2005-04-29 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
659 * Stdlib.cs: Make FilePosition slightly more useful by providing a
660 ToString() override which dumps the fpos_t structure contents into a
661 hex string. Add Equals(), GetHashCode(), operator==, and operator!=
662 so FilePosition behaves like a value type.
664 2005-04-21 Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>
667 * UnixListener.cs: TcpListener/TcpClient clones from Jow Shaw.
669 2005-04-21 Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>
671 * Mono.Posix.dll.sources: added UnixListener and UnixClient from Joe
674 2005-04-21 Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>
676 * UnixEndPoint.cs: fix from Mono.Posix.
678 2005-04-20 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
680 * Syscall.cs: Make all fork(2) and exec(2) functions `private`. It
681 currently isn't safe to call these under *any* circumstances. See also
682 68141, and this pertinent quote from Butenhof's
683 "Programming with POSIX Threads", p197, s6.1:
685 "When a threaded process calls fork to create a child process,
686 Pthreads specifies that only the thread calling fork exists in the
687 child. ... Pthreads does not 'terminate' the other threads in a forked
688 process...They simply cease to exist. ... This is not a problem if
689 the child process is about to call exec to run a new program, but if
690 you use fork to clone a threaded program, beware that you may lose
691 access to memory, especially heap memory stored only as
692 thread-specific data values."
694 Since P/Invoke currently requires using thread local storage, once you
695 fork(2) you won't be able to invoke exec(2) from managed code (since that
696 would require a P/Invoke transition to call exec(2), which would require
697 TLS, which doesn't exist in the new process).
699 This can only be fixed by removing the TLS dependency on P/Invoke, which
700 isn't a priority (and may not be possible).
702 The workaround is to create a C function which does your fork(2)/exec(2)
703 (and any other functions such as daemon(3)) on your behalf, and P/Invoke
704 to call this C function.
706 2005-04-18 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
708 * Syscall.cs: Update comment specifying which functions belong in Syscall.
709 * UnixConvert.cs: Add XattrFlags conversion functions.
710 * UnixMarshal.cs: Remove warning about self-assignment.
712 2005-04-16 Daniel Drake <dsd@gentoo.org>
714 * Syscall.cs: Add bindings for extended attribute manipulation
716 2005-04-05 Miguel de Icaza <miguel@novell.com>
718 * Syscall.cs: Set entry point for sys_syslog to be syslog.
719 Include the syslog.h header in the generated map so that we
720 actually do the mapping.
722 2005-03-28 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
724 * UnixConvert.cs: Add ToFopenMode() methods, which convert FileMode/FileAccess
725 into an fopen(3) mode string. ToOpenFlags() should throw
726 ArgumentOutOfRangeException for argument violations.
727 * StdioFileStream.cs: Add constructor overloads accepting filename and
728 FileMode/FileAccess overloads; Compatibility fixes with regression tests;
729 remove IDisposable implementation since System.IO.Stream already
730 implements it (which calls Close() for us).
732 2005-03-17 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
734 * Stdlib.cs: Move Errno-related functionality into Stdlib from Syscall,
735 since (1) errno is part of C89, and (2) StdioFileStream will need it, and
736 StdioFileStream shouldn't use Syscall. Add [UnmanagedFunctionPointer]
737 attribute to SignalHandler for .NET 2.0 (since signal handlers use C
738 calling convention, not Stdcall).
739 * Syscall.cs: Move Errno-related functionality into Stdlib.
740 * UnixMarshal.cs: Use ERANGE not EPERM when figuring out appropriate
741 translator, since ERANGE is part of C99 and EPERM isn't. Use Stdlib
742 instead of Syscall for Errno-related functionality.
744 2005-02-02 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
746 * UnixFile.cs: Cope with changes in UnixStream.
747 * UnixStream.cs: Change FileDescriptor property to Handle for consistency.
748 * StdioFileStream.cs: Change FileStream property to Handle for consistency.
750 2005-02-02 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
752 * Syscall.cs: Remove public sys_ methods. Some were public by mistake, and
753 others so that users could manually marshal strings if desired. Manually
754 marshaling strings shouldn't be necessary, though, so remove them too.
756 2005-02-02 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
758 * StdioFileStream.cs: Fix Length property to actually return the size of the
759 file, not the # of bytes from the current position to EOF. Oops.
761 2005-01-31 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
763 * Stdlib.cs: Import "msvcrt", not "libc". These members are part of the
764 ANSI C standard, and thus should be present on Windows via msvcrt.dll
765 (except snprintf, until they catch up to C99). Change the calling
766 convention of all functions to Cdecl, as the .NET default is Stdcall.
767 Changing the calling convention isn't needed in Syscall, as it can only be
768 run on Unix platforms anyway, where the default is Cdecl.
769 * Syscall.cs: Add LIBC member that points to the real "libc"; we can't use
770 the imported definition from Stdlib as "msvcrt" doesn't exist on Unix.
772 2005-01-29 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
774 * Stdlib.cs: sys_* functions shouldn't be public.
776 2005-01-13 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
778 * make-map.cs: libMonoPosixHelper exports Mono_Posix prefixes, not Mono_Unix
779 prefixes, so change the type and namespace to generate compatible code.
780 * Syscall.cs: Change OpenFlags values so they match the Linux values.
782 2005-01-13 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
784 * Stdlib.cs: Use Stdlib.LIBC instead of "libc".
785 * StdioFileStream.cs: Add FilePosition property (not that I expect anyone to
786 use it) and Rewind() method.
788 2005-01-05 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
790 * StdioFileStream.cs: Added; System.IO.Stream wrapper for C FILE struct.
791 * Stdlib.cs: Correct visibility of ftell().
793 2005-01-05 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
795 * Stdlib.cs: Re-order declarations to match the order used in the
796 C99 Standard Annex B; Complete <stdio.h> exports (except for those not
797 worth supporting); Add non-"unsafe" versions of fread(3), fwrite(3) and
798 add some rudimentary buffer-overflow checking; Add <stdlib.h> exports such
799 as getenv(3), exit(3), rand(3), EXIT_SUCCESS, RAND_MAX, etc.
801 2005-01-03 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
803 * Syscall.cs: Update endfsent() and setfsent() declarations, as these must
804 now be implemented in MonoPosixHelper.
806 2005-01-01 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
808 * Stdlib.cs, Syscall.cs: Minimize duplicate declarations of
809 "MonoPosixHelper" for use in DllImport statements.
811 2005-01-01 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
813 * Stdlib.cs: Don't use C# v2 features; fixes build under CSC.EXE.
815 2004-12-30 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
817 * Stdlib.cs: On miguel's suggestion, rename Sighandler_t to SignalHandler.
819 2004-12-30 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
821 * Stdlib.cs: Implement all C89 <stdio.h> functions except for the scanf(3)
822 family. These are too dangerous to expose.
824 2004-12-30 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
826 * CdeclFunctions.cs: Remove warning about unused variable.
827 * Stdlib.cs: Make signal(2) sane and (hopefully) complete.
828 * Syscall.cs: Fix cuserid Obsolete message to reference correct class name.
829 * UnixProcess.cs: Remove warning about unused variable.
830 * UnixMarshal.cs: Remove warnings about unused variables.
832 2004-12-29 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
834 * UnixPath.cs: Add ReadSymbolicLink(), which takes an intelligent approach
835 to reading symlinks (since their contents may be any size, we grow the
836 buffer dynamically to fit them all, instead of assuming a maximum size).
837 * UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs: Remove MaxContentsSize.
839 2004-12-29 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
841 * UnixPath.cs: Add check for when symlink points to a full path name.
843 2004-12-29 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
845 * Syscall.cs: Fix Object.Equals implementations.
846 * UnixPath.cs: New & improved, with Testing! GetRealPath() is changed so
847 that it doesn't walk the entire path looking for symlinks, it just reads
848 the leaf. GetCompletRealPath() walks the entire path resolving symlinks.
849 GetCanonicalPath() added, which "cleans up" a path (removing extraneous
850 "." and ".." entries).
851 * UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs: Rename ContentsLength -> MaxContentsSize.
853 2004-12-28 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
855 * UnixFileSystemInfo.cs: Add a link(2) wrapper, CreateLink(). Strictly
856 speaking it's only "safe" to do this on files, but an exception will be
857 returned if the user tries to hard link directories (because of EPERM),
858 unless the user is root, in which case it should be allowed anyway...
860 2004-12-28 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
862 * CdeclFunctions.cs: Correct the comments for AMD64
863 * UnixDirectoryInfo.cs: override Name; add Parent & Root properties;
864 Correct Path usage (s/Path/FullPath/g).
865 * UnixDriveInfo.cs: Added. Based on .NET 2.0 System.IO.DriveInfo docs,
866 provides statvfs(2) and getfsfile(3) information about a mounted volume.
867 GetDrives() wraps getfsent(3), thus parsing /etc/fstab.
868 * UnixFile.cs: Use UnixConver.ToOpenFlags, deleting the local version.
869 * UnixFileInfo.cs: Use UnixConver.ToOpenFlags, deleting the local version;
870 override Name; add DirectoryName and Directory properties;
871 * UnixFileSystemInfo.cs: Make more .NET-like, using FullPath and
872 OriginalPath protected members, abstract Name property; Add
873 CreateSymbolicLink; Remove ReadLink (it's now
874 UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.Contents); Use lstat(2) for Create(string), so we
875 properly detect Symbolic Links.
876 * UnixPath.cs: Added; Path manipulation utility functions.
877 * UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs:
879 - override new abstract member Name;
880 - rename ReadLink to ContentsPath (and Contents) properties
881 (why "Contents"? Because readlink(2) says "readlink places the
882 contents of the symbolic link in the buffer...")
883 - Add CreateSymbolicLinkTo(), which creates a symlink to the specified
886 2004-12-28 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
888 * Stdlib.cs: Add syslog(3) to XPrintfFunctions; Add additional printf(3)
889 and fprintf(3) overload which properly escape the format string
890 (by using "%s" as the format for the user-supplied message).
891 * Syscall.cs: Add #regions for enummerations, structures, classes; Wrap
892 syslog(3) and related enumerations; fix operator!= on Dirent, Group;
893 wrap {f}statvfs(2); wrap <fstab.h> entries (getfsent(3), etc.).
894 * UnixConvert.cs: Add Syslog-releated enumeration translation functions;
895 Move ToOpenFlags here from UnixFile and UnixFileInfo.
896 * UnixMarshal.cs: Missing P/Invoke methods throw
897 EntryPointNotFoundException, not MissingMethodException; add
898 EscapeFormatString, which escapes printf-style format strings so that they
899 can be safely handed off to native code (avoiding stack overflow, etc);
900 make CreateExceptionForError internal.
902 2004-12-15 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
904 * Stdlib.cs: Add more <stdio.h> wrappers, such as fread(3) and fwrite(3).
905 These will be useful in implementing System.IO.Stream subclass for
906 reading/writing to a FILE*. Fix a typo in the realloc(3) DllImport.
907 * Syscall.cs: Fix the sys_kill and sys_crypt declarations.
908 * CdeclFunction.cs: Document calling convention problems on AMD64.
910 2004-11-18 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
912 * CdeclFunction.cs: Added.
913 * Stdlib.cs: Re-add printf(3) and fprintf(3). They may not be portable (the
914 jury is still out on that; the AMD64 SysV ABI looks like it should be
915 portable to AMD64 to my eyes), but they will work on *some* platforms, so
916 we should permit it. The new implementation takes a page out of
917 cocoa-sharp: use System.Reflection.Emit to generate a P/Invoke method at
918 runtime to invoke printf(3) or fprintf(3). This way, we can export a
919 params signature to C# code, permitting natural usage such as:
920 Stdlib.printf ("Hello, %s world! (%i)\n", "silly", 42);
921 * Syscall.cs: Mark which headers are complete, which functions still need
922 wrapping (for headers which have anything done to them), add #region
923 blocks for each header;
924 export mkfifo(3), fexecve(), getppid(2), setlogin(); fix sleep(3) export.
925 * UnixEnvironment.cs: Export a friendly getppid(2) wrapper.
926 GetParentProcessId isn't in UnixProcess as there's no way (that I know of)
927 to get the Parent's Parent, so it can't be a class member, and exposing it
928 as a static member of UnixProcess doesn't make sense to me, as it isn't
929 general. Added GetUserShells().
930 * UnixProcess.cs: Change constructor to internal, so it can be used from
933 2004-11-16 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
935 * Stdlib.cs: Remove printf(3) and fprintf(3). These are vararg/CDECL
936 functions, and it's not portable to call them in this manner.
937 (It's not portable because some architectures, such as AMD64, use a
938 "cookie" as part of the vararg calling sequence to help reduce buffer
939 overflow exploits. Trying to call vararg functions as if they were an
940 overloaded function will not properly set this hardware cookie, resulting
941 in a hardware exception. Talk to lupus for more information.)
943 2004-11-16 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
945 * Syscall.cs, UnixConvert.cs: Remove mount- and umount-related
946 functionality. Mount/umount is inherently non-portable (see the C code
947 for mount/umount), and trying to provide a consistent interface is
948 impossible. If you need mount/umount support, use the command-line
949 programs mount(1) and umount(1).
951 2004-11-16 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
953 + Lots o' Renames, as the namespace changed.
954 * PosixConvert.cs: Moved to UnixConvert.cs:
955 * PosixDirectory.cs: Moved to UnixDirectory.cs:
956 * PosixEnvironment.cs: Moved to UnixEnvironment.cs:
957 * PosixDirectoryInfo.cs: Moved to UnixDirectoryInfo.cs:
958 * PosixFile.cs: Moved to UnixFile.cs:
959 * PosixFileInfo.cs: Moved to UnixFileInfo.cs:
960 * PosixFileSystemInfo.cs: Moved to UnixFileSystemInfo.cs:
961 * PosixGroup.cs: Moved to UnixGroup.cs:
962 * PosixGroupInfo.cs: Moved to UnixGroupInfo.cs:
963 * PosixIOException.cs: Moved to UnixIOException.cs:
964 * PosixMarshal.cs: Moved to UnixMarshal.cs:
965 * PosixProcess.cs: Moved to UnixProcess.cs:
966 * PosixStream.cs: Moved to UnixStream.cs:
967 * PosixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs: Moved to UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs:
968 * PosixUser.cs: Moved to UnixUser.cs:
969 * PosixUserInfo.cs: Moved to UnixUserInfo.cs:
970 * Catalog.cs, IncludeAttribute.cs, MapAttribute.cs, PeerCred.cs, Stdlib.cs,
971 Syscall.cs, UnixConvert.cs, UnixDirectory.cs, UnixDirectoryInfo.cs,
972 UnixEndPoint.cs, UnixEnvironment.cs, UnixFile.cs, UnixFileInfo.cs,
973 UnixFileSystemInfo.cs, UnixGroup.cs, UnixGroupInfo.cs, UnixIOException.cs,
974 UnixMarshal.cs, UnixProcess.cs, UnixStream.cs, UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs,
975 UnixUser.cs, UnixUserInfo.cs: Deal with renamed classes/members.
977 2004-11-15 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
979 * PosixUserInfo.cs: Make the PosixUserInfo(Passwd) constructor public;
980 override Object.GetHashCode and Object.Equals.
981 * PosixGroupInfo.cs: Make the PosixGroupInfo(Group) constructor public;
982 override Object.GetHashCode and Object.Equals.
983 * PosixIOException.cs: Use PosixMarshal.GetErrorDescription instead of
984 calling Syscall.strerror_r directly
985 * PosixMarshal.cs: Add GetErrorDescription. Strerror_r() isn't portable, so
986 GetErrorDescription() first tries strerror_r(), and if it fails falls back
989 - Seal the Dirent class. It has no virtual members, so there's no point
990 in it being non-sealed. Override Object.GetHashCode and Object.Equals.
991 - Seal the Group class. It has no virtual members, so there's no point
992 in it being non-sealed. Override Object.GetHashCode and Object.Equals.
993 Provide operator== and operator!=.
994 - Seal the Passwd class. It has no virtual members, so there's no point
995 in it being non-sealed. Override Object.GetHashCode and Object.Equals.
996 Provide operator== and operator!=.
997 - Remove strerror_r() convenience overload. This is now
998 PosixMarshal.GetErrorDescription().
1000 2004-11-12 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
1002 * Syscall.cs: Export time-related functions (gettimeofday, settimeofday,
1003 utime, utimes), mknod.
1005 2004-11-07 Atsushi Enomoto <atsushi@ximian.com>
1007 * PosixEnvironment.cs : csc build fix. see bug #69195.
1008 * PosixStream.cs : csc build fix. see bug #69196.
1010 2004-11-05 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
1012 * PosixConvert.cs: New file; conversion functions for Mono.Posix types.
1013 * PosixDirectory.cs: New file; Friendly wrapper over directory information.
1014 * PosixDirectoryInfo.cs: New file; Friendly wrapper over directory information.
1015 * PosixEnvironment.cs: New file; Friendly wrapper over environment information.
1016 * PosixFile.cs: New file; Friendly wrapper over file information.
1017 * PosixFileInfo.cs: New file; Friendly wrapper over file information.
1018 * PosixFileSystemInfo.cs: New file; Friendly wrapper over `stat'.
1019 * PosixGroup.cs: New file; User Group-related functionality
1020 * PosixGroupInfo.cs: New file; User Group-related functionality
1021 * PosixIOException.cs: New file; Exception for POSIX-generated exceptions.
1022 * PosixMarshal.cs: New file; utility functions for marshaling, etc.
1023 * PosixProcess.cs: New file; Friendly wrapper over process information.
1024 * PosixStream.cs: New file; Friendly wrapper over file descriptors.
1025 * PosixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs: New file; Friendly wrapper over symbolic links.
1026 * PosixUser.cs: New file; Friendly wrapper over user information.
1027 * PosixUserInfo.cs: New file; Friendly wrapper over user information.
1028 * Stdlib.cs: New file; C standard library exports.
1029 * Syscall.cs: Effective re-write.
1030 - Organize exports by header file
1031 - add additional enumerations (Error for the E* error values, etc.)
1032 - always explicitly specify enumeration underlying type
1033 - Use a new wrapping infrastructure so that ABI-stable types are exported
1034 - For example, size_t is exported as ulong, not IntPtr.
1035 - Wrap more functions, and wrap them better (such as getpwnam).
1036 - This release is NOT backward compatible. Many names are the same, and
1037 hopefully they're still compatible, but no effort was made to maintain
1038 compatibility. For example, FileMode was removed and replaced with
1039 FilePermissions, to avoid a name conflict with System.IO.FileMode.
1040 - Change umount() to use MonoPosixHelper: portability fix for Mac OS X.
1041 * make-map.cs: Another effective re-write, to clean up the code, produce
1042 better output, and produce more output. For example, most of
1043 PosixConvert can be auto-generated, so it is (modulo version delays and
1044 bootstrap issues). `map.c' is now conditional on all macros, and has
1045 error checking for invalid/unsupported values.
1047 2004-09-18 Jackson Harper <jackson@ximian.com>
1049 * Syscall.cs: Add support for poll ().
1051 2004-09-18 Jackson Harper <jackson@ximian.com>
1053 * make-map.cs: Use field value not name for #defines.
1055 2004-09-14 Loren Bandiera <lorenb@mmgsecurity.com>
1057 * Syscall.cs: Added method for getpwnam which uses Passwd
1059 * macros.c: Helper function for getpwnam
1060 (In committing, Josh Tauberer also added getpwuid.)
1062 2004-07-09 Dick Porter <dick@ximian.com>
1064 * PeerCred.cs: Get the unix socket peer credentials.
1066 2004-05-26 Miguel de Icaza <miguel@ximian.com>
1068 * Syscall.cs: Do not let the runtime handle strings, as we do not
1069 own those strings, we must transform the char * into a string
1072 2004-05-03 Miguel de Icaza <miguel@ximian.com>
1074 * Syscall.cs: Add symlink
1076 2004-04-19 Miguel de Icaza <miguel@ximian.com>
1078 * Syscall.cs: Use hex values for FileMode, since C# does not have
1079 an octal integer mode.
1081 2004-03-30 Joshua Tauberer <tauberer@for.net>
1083 * Added readlink, strerror, opendir, readdir, closedir
1084 * Added Mono.Posix.Stat.UnixToDateTime(long unixtime) --> DateTime
1086 2004-03-11 Joshua Tauberer <tauberer@for.net>
1088 * Syscall.cs: Removed argument to getgid that shouldn't be there.
1089 Added getusername, getgroupname which wrap getpwuid, getgrgid
1090 without dealing with pointers to structures.
1091 Removed duplicate FileMode enum nested in Syscall class.
1092 Added stat and lstat, which use StatMode enumeration
1093 (like FileMode but nicer and complete) and Stat struct.
1094 * macros.c: Helper functions for getpwuid, getgrgid, stat, lstat.
1096 2004-01-07 Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>
1098 * Syscall.cs: moved the assembly attribute to a proper place
1099 and added 'signal.h'
1100 * make-map.cs: use reflection to invoke the properties, as it
1101 fails under MS runtime.
1104 2004-01-05 Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>
1106 * Syscall.cs: moved assembly attribute and added unsafe block to fix
1107 the build on windows.
1109 2003-11-11 Wojciech Polak <polak@gnu.org
1111 * Syscall.cs: Applied patch from Wojciech Polak <polak@gnu.org> to
1114 2003-05-16 Dick Porter <dick@ximian.com>
1116 * UnixEndPoint.cs: New property to get and set the filename, like
1117 the IPEndPoint has for the IP address. Also implement ToString().
1119 Tue Apr 29 16:53:56 CEST 2003 Paolo Molaro <lupus@ximian.com>
1121 * Syscall.cs: remove the unsafe mess.
1123 2003-02-05 Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>
1126 * UnixEndPoint.cs: first file.
