4 * AbstractUnixEndPoint.cs: Second half of the fix for #79084.
5 Add support for the abstract namespace, and update existing file-based
6 UnixEndPoint (de)serialization to reflect changes in the runtime.
8 2006-07-02 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
10 * UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs: Oops. CreateSymbolicLinkTo() should create
11 FullPath, not OriginalName. This was fixed in one overload in January,
12 but I missed an overload. :-/
14 2006-07-02 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
16 * UnixPath.cs: Follow .NET's System.IO.Path.Combine() behavior, and "reset"
17 the generated path if any argument beings with a path root --
18 UnixPath.Combine("/a", "/b") should return "/b", not "/a/b". Fixes #78580.
20 2006-04-21 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
22 * UnixFileSystemInfo.cs: rename Create() to GetFileSystemEntry(), and make
23 it public (so that other's don't need to worry about the
24 Syscall.lstat()-and-switch to create a UnixFileSystemInfo instance).
25 * UnixDirectoryInfo.cs, UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs:
26 s/Create/GetFileSystemEntry/g (to cope with above change).
28 2006-03-09 Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>
30 * UnixEndPoint.cs: added GetHashCode/Equals.
32 2006-03-06 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
34 * UnixDriveInfo.cs: Remove requirement that mountPoints be avaible via
35 getfsfile(3). This isn't always the case -- in particular drives mounted
36 via HAL and other mechanisms won't be listed in /etc/fstab, and thus won't
37 be returned via getfsfile(3). If getfsfile(3) fails, then we "guess" on
38 the drive format and volume label.
39 * UnixStream.cs: RefreshStat() should assert that the instance hasn't been
41 * UnixEnvironment.cs (GetConfigurationValue, GetConfigurationString): Fix
44 2006-02-23 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
46 * UnixFileSystemInfo.cs: Create() should return a UnixFileInfo if the file
47 doesn't exist. This allows callers to use UnixFileInfo.Exists to see if
48 the file exists, and behaves more rationally e.g. if the directory
49 contents changes while calling UnixDirectoryInfo.GetFileSystemEntries(),
50 we'll get a UnixFileInfo entry that doesn't exist instead of an exception
51 terminating the entire array creation.
52 * UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs: [Obsolete] the Contents property -- this property
53 *always* creates a new object if HasContents=true, and since a
54 UnixFileSystemInfo instance is (104+2*(sizeof(void*))+1) bytes (~113 bytes
55 on 32-bit platforms), we don't want to create these frequently. Add a
56 GetContents() method as the replacement, to make it (slightly) more
57 explicit that information won't be cached (and thus should be cached by
58 the caller, if appropriate). GetContents() throws an exception if
59 HasContents=false instead of returning null; this change brings the
60 implementation in line with the documentation.
62 2006-02-18 Alp Toker <alp@atoker.com>
64 * UnixEndPoint.cs: Avoid truncation of last two bytes of SocketAddress
67 2006-01-26 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
69 * UnixMarshal.cs: Check for null arguments in PtrToString() and
72 2006-01-24 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
74 * UnixMarshal.cs (StringToHeap): Return IntPtr.Zero if `s' is null.
76 2006-01-24 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
78 * UnixMarshal.cs (StringToHeap): Check for null arguments.
80 2006-01-20 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
82 * UnixDriveInfo.cs: Properties should generate an InvalidOperationException,
83 not an IOException. Users can use IsReady to avoid exception generation.
84 * UnixIOException.cs: Create a custom message that embeds the error name
85 within the text, e.g. "Permission denied [EACCES]."
86 * UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs: This really should create the file FullPath, not
87 OriginalPath. Created files shouldn't ever be relative to the current
88 working directory, as this can change at any time.
90 2006-01-15 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
92 * UnixUserInfo.cs: The UnixUserInfo(Native.Passwd) constructor and
93 ToPasswd() should clone the underlying Native.Passwd, so
94 that it doesn't get changed from underneath it.
95 * UnixGroupInfo.cs: The UnixGroupInfo(Native.Group) constructor should also
96 clone the provided Native.Group instance.
98 2006-01-14 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
100 * UnixGroupInfo.cs: ToGroup() should clone the underlying Native.Group, so
101 that it doesn't get changed from underneath it.
103 2006-01-13 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
105 * Catalog.cs, UnixMarshal.cs: Throw `UnixIOException(Native.Errno.ENOMEM)`
106 instead of System.OutOfMemoryException. OOME should be reserved for use
107 by the CLR (according to FxDG).
109 2006-01-12 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
111 * UnixPath.cs: Add ReadLink() and TryReadLink() methods.
113 2006-01-12 Miguel de Icaza <miguel@novell.com>
115 * PeerCred.cs: Do not define PeerCredData as this is a structure
116 known to the runtime. Instead use the Mono.Posix.PeerCredData
119 2006-01-10 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
121 * Catalog.cs: Don't use
122 System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.StringToHGlobalAuto(), use
123 UnixMarshal.StringToHeap(). We require that the converted string be in
124 UTF-8 format, but .NET's Marshal.StringToHGlobalAuto converts to the local
125 code page, *not* UTF-8 (Mono's does UTF-8). UnixMarshal.StringToHeap
126 *always* does UTF-8, so use that instead.
128 2006-01-09 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
130 * FileTypes.cs: Remove [Flags] attribute -- these aren't bitfield values.
131 * UnixFileSystemInfo.cs: Fix Is<<Type>> properties -- before it would
132 erroneously say that a symlink was a character device. (This is because
133 device values are *not* [Flags] values, but code was assuming they were.)
134 * UnixGroupInfo.cs: Clone the string[] returned from GetMemberNames(). We
135 don't want callers to change the underlying list.
137 2006-01-07 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
139 * UnixMarshal.cs: *Actually* put things in alphabetical order (like the
140 comment says). I can speak english, really I can.
142 2006-01-06 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
144 * Catalog.cs: s/libintl/intl/g, since intl.dll is used by GTK+ on Windows,
145 not libintl.dll (according to
146 http://www.gimp.org/~tml/gimp/win32/downloads.html).
148 2006-01-03 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
150 * UnixMarshal.cs (CreateExceptionForError): Don't map ENOMEM to
151 System.OutOfMemoryException. OOME should be reserved for use by the CLR.
152 Return a UnixIOException instead (default behavior).
154 2006-01-02 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
156 * StdioFileStream.cs: Shut up FxCop - add a GC.KeepAlive to
158 * UnixClient.cs, UnixListener.cs: Use System.MarshalByRefObject as the base
159 class. These types implement IDisposable and have a finalizer, so if an
160 instance of these types were sent to another AppDomain they'd previously
161 marshal by copy, which could lead to a double release of an unmanaged
162 resource -- potential badness. Using MarshalByRefObject fixes this.
164 2006-01-02 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
166 * UnixMarshal.cs: s/EACCESS/EACCES/g. I can't read.
168 2006-01-02 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
170 * StdioFileStream.cs, UnixDirectoryInfo.cs, UnixEnvironment.cs,
171 UnixFileInfo.cs, UnixFileSystemInfo.cs, UnixGroupInfo.cs,
172 UnixIOException.cs, UnixMarshal.cs, UnixProcess.cs, UnixStream.cs,
173 UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs, UnixUserInfo.cs: Remove Obsolete API.
174 * CdeclFunction.cs, IncludeAttribute.cs, Stdlib.cs, Syscall.cs,
175 UnixConvert.cs, UnixDirectory.cs, UnixFile.cs, UnixGroup.cs,
177 * UnixPath.cs: Remove InvalidPathChars; use GetInvalidPathChars() instead.
178 * FileTypes.cs: Remove Obsolete API
180 2006-01-02 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
182 * FileAccessPermissions.cs: Remove UserMask, GroupMask, OtherMask values.
183 * FileSpecialAttributes.cs: Remove AllAttributes member; it shouldn't be
184 public. Use UnixFileSystemInfo.AllSpecialAttributes instead.
185 * StdioFileStream.cs: Open files in binary mode, not text;
186 Fix exception message for StdioFileStream(path, mode) mode param check.
187 * UnixDirectoryInfo.cs: Add Create(FileAccessPermissions) overload; change
188 GetFileSystemEntries() to include the directory name that the files came
189 from (otherwise they're in the current working direcetory, which they
191 * UnixFileInfo.cs: Add Create(FileAccessPermissions) overload; Add better
192 argument checking to several Open() overloads.
193 * UnixFileSystemInfo.cs: Add AllSpecialAttributes, AllFileTypes members;
194 FullPath member should invalidate instance if path changes; Change return
195 type of GetFileStatus for maintenance/better documentation; ToStat()
196 should ensure that the instance is valid first.
197 * UnixMarshal.cs: Add additional Errno values to CreateExceptionForError();
198 reformat CreateExceptionForError for maintenance.
199 * UnixPath.cs: Obsolete InvalidPathChars -- FxCop never liked it, and now I
200 know why it didn't like it (thank you Framework Design Guidelines!).
201 * UnixStream.cs: Use UnixFileSystemInfo.AllSpecialAttributes, not
202 FileSpecialAttributes.AllAttributes (which was removed).
203 * UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs: Change return type of GetFileStatus().
205 2005-12-28 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
207 * FileHandleOperations.cs: Check for null references.
209 2005-12-28 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
211 * UnixMarshal.cs: Errno.EBADF should also trigger a ArgumentException.
213 2005-12-27 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
215 * FileHandleOperations.cs, FileTypes.cs, Stdlib.cs, Syscall.cs,
216 UnixConvert.cs, UnixDirectory.cs, UnixDirectoryInfo.cs, UnixDriveInfo.cs,
217 UnixEnvironment.cs, UnixFile.cs, UnixFileInfo.cs, UnixFileSystemInfo.cs,
218 UnixGroup.cs, UnixGroupInfo.cs, UnixIOException.cs, UnixMarshal.cs,
219 UnixPath.cs, UnixPipes.cs, UnixProcess.cs, UnixStream.cs,
220 UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs, UnixUser.cs, UnixUserInfo.cs: Mark to-be-removed
221 API with [Obsolete(IsError=true)] (permits compiler assistance for finding
222 obsolete code); Migrate to the Mono.Unix.Native API.
223 * StdioFileStream.cs: Add non-Obsolete overloads for SaveFilePosition &
224 RestoreFilePosition (oops). Migrate to Mono.Unix.Native API.
226 2005-12-07 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
228 * UnixMarshal.cs: Add PtrToStringUnix() -- specialized PtrToString method
229 which is significantly faster than PtrToString(p, UnixEncoding.Instance).
230 Use System.String..ctor(sbyte*, int, int, Encoding) to avoid the byte[]
231 intermediate copy -- much faster. Fix PtrToString() so that it will
232 accept an IntPtr containing 0 characters, and don't duplicate strings
235 2005-11-18 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
237 * Catalog.cs, UnixDirectory.cs, UnixDirectoryInfo.cs, UnixDriveInfo.cs,
238 UnixEnvironment.cs, UnixFile.cs, UnixFileInfo.cs, UnixFileSystemInfo.cs,
239 UnixGroup.cs, UnixGroupInfo.cs, UnixProcess.cs, UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs,
240 UnixUser.cs, UnixUserInfo.cs: Change types of [Obsolete] members for
241 consistency and CLS compliance; Mono.Unix.Native type migration.
242 * FileTypes.cs: s/Special/Device/g (CharacterSpecial ==> CharacterDevice).
243 The *Special was a BSD convention, while UnixFileSystemInfo uses *Device
244 in property names, and these should be consistent. Changing the enum is
245 simpler than changing the UnixFileSystemInfo properties.
246 * UnixIOException.cs: s/error/errno/g (FxCop suggestion); change type of
248 * UnixMarshal.cs: s/error/errno/g (FxCop suggestion); Mono.Unix.Native
251 2005-11-08 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
253 * Catalog.cs: Exception safety improvements (don't let memory leak!); check
254 for errors with bindtextdomain(3) et. al.
256 2005-11-08 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
258 * UnixPipes.cs: Provide Equals, GetHashCode, and operator==/operator!= to
259 conform with FxCop guidelines for structures.
261 2005-11-03 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
263 * FileTypes.cs, UnixFileSystemInfo.cs: s/FIFO/Fifo/ to follow .NET
264 naming conventions (as reported by FxCop).
266 2005-11-01 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
268 * UnixDirectoryInfo.cs, UnixDriveInfo.cs, UnixEnvironment.cs,
269 UnixFileSystemInfo.cs, UnixGroupInfo.cs, UnixProcess.cs, UnixUserInfoc.cs:
270 Obsolete statements now specify in what way the return type will change.
271 * IncludeAttribute.cs: Obsoleted. It's an error to use it now.
273 2005-11-01 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
275 * FileAccessPattern.cs: Change enumeration names to match Robert Love's more
276 sensible names from his FileAdvise class used in Beagle
277 (UseSoon --> PreLoad, WillNotUse --> FlushCache).
278 * FileHandleOperations.cs: Added; contains AdviseFileAccessPattern()
279 (moved from UnixFile.cs).
280 * UnixDirectory.cs: Obsolete the class; use UnixDirectoryInfo instead.
281 * UnixDirectoryInfo.cs: Add GetCurrentDirectory(), SetCurrentDirectory().
282 * UnixFile.cs: Obsolete the class; use UnixFileInfo, FileHandleOperations,
283 or UnixPipes instead.
284 * UnixFileSystemInfo.cs: Add ToStat() method.
285 * UnixGroup.cs: Obsolete the class; use UnixGroupInfo instead.
286 * UnixGroupInfo.cs: Obsolete & Replace constructor, add GetMemberNames(),
288 * UnixPipes.cs: Added (type moved from UnixFile.cs).
289 * UnixStream.cs: AdviseFileAccessPattern() uses FileHandleOperations now.
290 * UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs: Implement TryReadLink() to avoid constant buffer
291 re-sizing. Stevens states that the file size of the symlink is the number
292 of bytes needed to hold the symlink, so this should be faster.
293 * UnixUser.cs: Obsolete the class; use UnixUserInfo instead.
294 * UnixUserInfo.cs: Obsolete & Replace constructor; add useful static members
295 from UnixUser such as GetLoginName(), GetLocalUsers(), etc.
297 2005-10-27 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
299 * UnixEnvironment.cs: Add RealUser, RealGroup, EffectiveUser, EffectiveGroup
300 properties; [Obsolete] necessary methods and provide replacements.
301 * UnixStream.cs: Add OwnerUser(Id), OwnerGroup(Id) properties;
302 improve Stat handling.
304 2005-10-26 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
306 * UnixEncoding.cs: Change EscapeByte to 0x0000, as suggested by Michal
308 * UnixPath.cs: Remove '\0' from InvalidPathChars, since U+0000 is now used
309 as the path escape character for marshaling purposes.
311 2005-10-26 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
313 * UnixMarshal.cs: Obsolete heap-related methods to have a Heap suffix
314 (AllocHeap, FreeHeap, etc.), and change StringToAlloc() to be
315 StringToHeap(). This creates a stronger name association between related
318 2005-10-26 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
320 * UnixIOException.cs: Add (string) and (string, Exception) constructors to
321 silence FxCop; re-work logic so we lookup the error string at construction
322 time and use this as the message for the base class.
324 2005-10-25 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
326 * Stdlib.cs, Syscall.cs: Filenames need to be marshaled through the
327 FileNameMarshaler, which will encode/decode filenames with UnixEncoding.
328 * UnixEncoding.cs: Added (copied from
329 ../../corlib/System.Text/UTF8Encoding.cs); a hack to permit handling of
330 arbitrarily encoded filenames. It attempts to decode a byte[] array as
331 UTF-8, and if the decode fails it prefixes each byte with
332 UnixEncoding.EscapeByte (\uFFFF).
333 * UnixMarshal.cs: Use UnixEncoding as the default encoding, and special-case
334 UnixEncoding to use Stdlib.strlen() for native string lengths.
336 2005-10-21 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
338 * FileAccessPattern.cs: Added
339 * UnixFile.cs, UnixStream.cs: Deprecate all the Advise* methods (lots!)
340 and replace with 6 methods which take a FileAccessPattern enum.
342 2005-10-19 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
344 * FileAccessPermissions.cs, FileSpecialAttributes.cs, FileTypes.cs: Added.
345 * UnixFileSystemInfo.cs, UnixStream.cs: Replace the old Permission property
346 with 4 new properties: Protection (for the Native.FilePermissions value),
347 FileAccessPermissions (for rwxrwxrwx info), FileSpecialAttributes (for
348 set-user-id, set-group-id, sticky), and FileTypes (directory, socket...).
349 The new enumeration types have nicer CLS-compliant names.
351 2005-10-17 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
353 * UnixMarshal.cs: Fix GetIntXxBufferLength to require fewer
354 Marshal.ReadIntXx() calls; Fix PtrToString so that
355 ``"foo" == PtrToString (StringToAlloc("foo",enc),enc)'' is true for
358 2005-10-17 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
360 * UnixFileSystemInfo.cs: Add OwnerUserId and OwnerGroupId properties.
362 2005-10-17 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
364 * UnixDriveInfo.cs, UnixEnvironment.cs, UnixFile.cs, UnixFileSystemInfo.cs,
365 UnixGroup.cs, UnixStream.cs, UnixUser.cs: Don't use SetLastError(), since
366 it's use is (1) incorrect, and (2) will be going away with the move to
367 Mono.Unix.Native.Syscall. Instead use the Native.Syscall.* APIs which
370 2005-10-17 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
372 * UnixGroup.cs, UnixGroupInfo.cs, UnixFile.cs, UnixFileSystemInfo.cs,
373 UnixStream.cs, UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs, UnixUser.cs, UnixUserInfo.cs:
374 Start migrating uid/gid to long (from uint) for CLS compliance.
375 (Full migration must wait 'til after the next release as this would
376 require changes to existing members.)
377 * UnixEnvironment.cs: Above, and add RealUserId/RealGroupId and
378 EffectiveUserId/EffectiveGroupId.
380 2005-10-14 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
382 * Catalog.cs: Create a constructor and mark it [Obsolete]. It will be made
383 private after the next release.
384 * UnixFile.cs, UnixStream.cs: Deal with Mono.Unix.Native type name changes.
385 * UnixFileSystemInfo.cs: [Obsolete] more members; Deal with Mono.Unix.Native
387 * Syscall.cs: Create maps for PathConf, SysConf, ConfStr again; fpathconf(),
388 pathconf(), and sysconf() should call Native.Syscall since the
389 MonoPosixHelper.so helpers have changed.
391 2005-10-13 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
393 * UnixMarshal.cs: More/better StringToAlloc/PtrToString which take a
394 System.Text.Encoding instance for proper string marshaling.
395 - PtrToString(string,Encoding) is particularly tricky due to variable
397 - Fix StringToAlloc so that it works properly with UTF-16 encodings
398 (we need a terminating null 16-bit word, not a null byte).
399 - StringToAlloc overload for doing substrings.
401 2005-10-12 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
403 * UnixStream.cs: Check for EROFS and EINVAL in Flush(). Snorp was getting
404 an exception when he created a UnixStream around a socket, because
405 sockets can't be flushed. It should be acceptable to create a UnixStream
406 around a socket, so don't throw an exception in this scenario.
408 2005-10-06 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
410 * UnixDirectory.cs, UnixDirectoryInfo.cs UnixFile.cs, UnixFileSystemInfo.cs,
411 UnixGroupInfo.cs, UnixIOException.cs, UnixStream.cs, UnixUserInfo.cs:
412 API Review: Obsolete appropriate members and add appropriate overloads for
413 pending move to Mono.Unix.Native types.
414 * UnixMarshal.cs: API Review; add StringToAlloc().
416 2005-09-26 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
418 * UnixFileSystemInfo.cs: Exists shouldn't use access(2), as (1) Exists isn't
419 virtual, and (2) access(2) errors if you try to access(2) a symlink which
420 points nowhere. Use (l)stat(2) instead, via GetFileStatus(), as this lets
421 UnixSymbolicLinkInfo behave properly.
422 * UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs: The Contents property should return null if the
423 symlink target doesn't exist.
425 2005-09-20 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
427 * Syscall.cs: Add [Map] to AccessMode and MmapProt, as the Mono.Unix.Native
428 replacements go by different names (AccessModes, MmapProts), but we need
429 to continue generating the mapping code for these types (backward compat).
431 2005-09-20 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
433 * CdeclFunction.cs: [Obsolete]d by Mono.Unix.Native.CdeclFunction.
434 * make-map.cs: Remove.
435 * Stdlib.cs: [Obsolete] the types; use the Mono.Unix.Native.* types instead.
436 * StdioFileStream.cs: Add GC.KeepAlive statements to prevent premature GC's
438 * Syscall.cs: Remove [Map] attribute from all types; [CLSCompliant(false)]
439 work; [Obsolete] all types and suggest using the Mono.Unix.Native.*
440 replacements; remove [IncludeAttribute] -- superseded by
441 Mono.Unix.Native/Syscall.cs's [HeaderAttribte] for CLS compliance.
442 * UnixConvert.cs: [Obsolete]d by Mono.Unix.Native.NativeConvert.
443 * UnixDirectory.cs, UnixDriveInfo.cs, UnixEnvironment.cs,
444 UnixGroup.cs, UnixGroupInfo.cs,
445 UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs, UnixUser.cs, UnixUserInfo.cs:
446 Add [CLSCompliant(false)] as necessary.
447 * UnixFile.cs, UnixDirectory.cs, UnixFileInfo.cs, UnixFileSystemInfo.cs:
448 [CLSCompliant(false)], addition of method overloads for [Obsolete]d types,
449 warn about changing return types.
450 * UnixProcess.cs, UnixStream.cs: Add [CLSCompliant(false)] as necessary,
451 and warn about changing property types.
453 2005-09-02 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
455 * Stdlib.cs: Cache delegates passed to Stdlib.signal() so that they survive
456 garbage collections. Delegates can be removed by calling Stdlib.signal()
457 again with one of the Stdlib.SIG_* values (or the original return value of
459 * UnixUser.cs, UnixGroup.cs, UnixEnvironment.cs: Clarify "Id" (int) vs.
460 "Name" (string) differences by always using a Id or Name suffix.
462 2005-07-01 Daniel Drake <dsd@gentoo.org>
464 * Syscall.cs: The entire extended attribute API now goes through MPH, to
465 be shared between both Linux's and FreeBSD's similar EA implementations.
467 2005-06-29 Miguel de Icaza <miguel@ximian.com>
469 * StdioFileStream.cs: Only flush if we do not own the handle, as
470 fclose does a flush internally.
472 2005-06-29 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
474 * UnixEnvironment: Add User, Login properties.
475 * Syscall.cs: Add locking around cuserid, crypt, encrypt, getlogin.
477 2005-06-29 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
479 * Syscall.cs: SyslogFacility shouldn't be [Flags] either. Sigh.
480 Thanks to Vorobiev Maksim for pointing this out.
481 * make-map.cs: Don't generate conversion code for [Obsolete] enum members.
482 This assumes that (1) the enum member's value is invalid, or (2) a
483 corrected member with the same value exists. This fix allows us to
484 obsolete invalid members (instead of removing them) without screwing up
485 the generated code -- consider LOG_USRE, the mis-spelling of LOG_USER.
486 Since SyslogFacility was (incorrectly) a [Flags] enum, since both LOG_USER
487 and LOG_USRE had the same value, we'd get a EINVAL error trying to convert
488 a valid value, since LOG_USRE would exist, would be checked for, and the
489 check would succeed (since it had the same value as LOG_USER).
490 This change allows us to be slightly more permissive with versioning.
492 2005-06-28 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
494 * Syscall.cs: correct value of LOG_CRON (it shouldn't be identical to
495 LOG_UUCP). SyslogLevel shouldn't have [Flags]. Move LOG_USER to be
496 before LOG_USRE so that the generated map code doesn't return EINVAL when
497 LOG_USER is specified.
499 2005-06-15 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
501 * Syscall.cs: s/LOG_USRE/LOG_USER/. Fixes #75274.
502 Thanks to Martin Honermeyer.
504 2005-06-09 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
506 * make-map.cs: Look for [Obsolete] members, and mark the UnixConvert
507 conversion functions with the same [Obsolete] message. This should permit
508 more graceful deprecation of enumerations in the future (rather than just
511 2005-06-08 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
513 * Syscall.cs: Add execvp(2). (This should have been added with the other
514 exec(2) additions...).
516 2005-06-08 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
518 * Syscall.cs: Update comment with correct exception type.
519 * UnixConvert.cs: Rename ToFilePermissions(string) to
520 FromOctalPermissionString; Add ToOctalPermissionString,
521 FromUnixPermissionString, ToUnixPermissionString.
522 * UnixMarshal.cs: Remove ErrorMarshal.HaveStrerror_r and
523 UnixMarshal.IsErrorDescriptionThreadSafe. strerror(3) is now thread-safe
524 (from managed code, at least). Update comment.
526 2005-06-07 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
528 * UnixFileSystemInfo.cs: Don't use lstat(2), use stat(2). This fits with
529 expectations better -- if you create a UnixFileInfo() on a symlink, you
530 want to get the target's information, not the symlink's info. Add
531 GetFileStatus so UnixSymbolicLinkInfo can override this behavior.
532 * UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs: Implement GetFileStatus() (which calls lstat(2)).
534 2005-06-07 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
536 * Syscall.cs: Document naming conventions.
538 2005-06-05 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
540 * make-map.cs: Change automatic "ifdef HAVE_<header>" support prefix to
541 "ah:" from ">". I hadn't known about ">", and "ah:" is (somewhat) more
543 * Syscall.cs: Change IncludeAttribute to put all headers/defines one/line.
544 It's easier to read this way. Add "ah:sys/xattr.h" to the headers.
546 2005-06-03 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
548 * Stdlib.cs: Add sanity checking to snprintf(3) to avoid buffer overflows.
550 2005-06-02 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
552 * StdioFileStream.cs: Remove FilePosition property & replace with
553 SaveFilePosition/RestoreFilePosition methods. Since FilePosition has a
554 finalizer, it's not right to have implicitly created instances.
556 - FilePosition: GC.SuppressFinalize() should be last in Dispose()
557 (following .NET guidelines).
558 - Syscall: Add locking around functions most likely to be thread unsafe.
559 This should provide some level of thread-safety to managed code.
560 * Syscall.cs: Add locking around functions most likely to be thread unsafe;
561 add mkstemp(3) export.
562 * UnixEnvironment.cs: GetUserShells should be atomic (from managed code).
563 * UnixGroup.cs: GetLocalGroups should be atomic (from managed code).
564 * UnixGroupInfo.cs: Add ToGroup() method to retrieve underlying Group info.
565 * UnixUser.cs: GetLocalUsers should be atomic (from managed code).
566 * UnixUserInfo.cs: Add ToPasswd () method to retrieve underlying Passwd info.
567 * UnixDriveInfo.cs: GetDrives should be atomic (from managed code).
569 2005-05-31 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
571 * Stdlib.cs: Add comment for atexit(3) so I don't try to add it.
572 * Syscall.cs: Add fcntl(2) overload which takes DirectoryNotifyFlags (so
573 that *something* accepts a DirectoryNotifyFlags); Fix IncludeAttribute
574 header files (">sys/poll.h" doesn't exist);
575 Add additional <sys/mman.h> functions mmap, munmap, msync, mlock, munlock,
576 mlockall, munlockall, mremap, mincore, remap_file_pages.
577 * UnixConvert.cs: Add conversion functions for MmapFlags, MmapProt, MsyncFlags,
578 MlockallFlags, MremapFlags.
580 2005-05-31 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
582 * Syscall.cs, UnixConvert.cs: Rename LockFlags to LockfCommand. This is a more
583 consistent naming, and it's more correct (they weren't flags in the first place).
585 2005-05-18 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
587 * Stdlib.cs: Correct Mono_Posix_Stdlib_InvokeSignalHandler export.
589 2005-05-18 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
591 * make-map.cs: Process the Mono.Posix namespace as well as Mono.Unix; add
592 mapping for Boolean => int for native type conversion.
594 2005-05-18 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
596 * make-map.cs: Add a MphPrototypeFileGenerator, which looks for DllImport
597 methods across all types and generates a C header file declaration for
598 those methods. This allows us to ensure consistency between
599 Mono.Posix.dll and MonoPosixHelper.so. Rename WrapperFileGenerator to
600 ConvertFileGenerator (it generates UnixConvert).
601 * MapAttribute.cs, IncludeAttribute.cs: Make these internal -- there's no
602 reason for external users to even know these exist.
603 * StdioFileStream.cs: Move GC.SuppressFinalize call to be last Dispose()
604 call. This follows current design guidelines, and allows an exception to
605 be thrown from Dispose() without un-registering the finalizer.
606 * Syscall.cs: Change method declarations to match MonoPosixHelper, etc.
607 - posix_fallocate(P) takes a size_t
608 - mis-spelled settimeofday(2), sethostname(2)
609 - exec(2) can be public; it's safe to call
610 - change lseek(2) so int's are passed to MonoPosixHelper.so, not shorts
611 - We can't allow two incompatible prototypes to exist (since C allows
612 only one prototype, and we're cross-checking prototypes now). Change
613 utime(2) so only one prototype is needed.
614 * UnixMarshal.cs: ErrorMarshal.ErrorTranslator and ErrorMarshal.Translate
615 shouldn't be public; make them internal.
616 * UnixStream.cs: Remove `unsafe` code block when a "safe" alternative works;
617 Close() should also call GC.SuppressFinalize.
619 2005-05-12 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
621 * Syscall.cs: The Statvfs structure should contain a MountFlags enumeration,
622 not a ulong (we can "safely" do this since POSIX defines some values for
623 f_flag, so we should be kind and expose them).
624 * UnixConvert.cs: Add MountFlags conversion functions.
626 2005-05-02 Joe Shaw <joeshaw@novell.com>
628 * UnixListener.cs (Init): Remove the call to Cleanup() and the
629 method itself, which was not supposed to be here. We try to
630 connect to the socket if it exists instead of deleting it
633 2005-04-30 Ben Maurer <bmaurer@ximian.com>
635 * Stdlib.cs: Comment out usage of `UnmanagedFunctionPointer'. It
636 isn't supported in the runtime -- it throws an assert -- so better
637 not to use it at all for now.
639 2005-04-29 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
641 * UnixConvert.cs: Fix time_t -> DateTime conversions. time_t should be
642 assumed to be in the local time zone, so don't mess with UTC shifts.
643 This allows Mono.Unix to produce sane output (e.g. identical to ls(1) or
644 stat(1), instead of several hours different).
646 2005-04-29 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
648 * Stdlib.cs: Make FilePosition slightly more useful by providing a
649 ToString() override which dumps the fpos_t structure contents into a
650 hex string. Add Equals(), GetHashCode(), operator==, and operator!=
651 so FilePosition behaves like a value type.
653 2005-04-21 Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>
656 * UnixListener.cs: TcpListener/TcpClient clones from Jow Shaw.
658 2005-04-21 Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>
660 * Mono.Posix.dll.sources: added UnixListener and UnixClient from Joe
663 2005-04-21 Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>
665 * UnixEndPoint.cs: fix from Mono.Posix.
667 2005-04-20 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
669 * Syscall.cs: Make all fork(2) and exec(2) functions `private`. It
670 currently isn't safe to call these under *any* circumstances. See also
671 68141, and this pertinent quote from Butenhof's
672 "Programming with POSIX Threads", p197, s6.1:
674 "When a threaded process calls fork to create a child process,
675 Pthreads specifies that only the thread calling fork exists in the
676 child. ... Pthreads does not 'terminate' the other threads in a forked
677 process...They simply cease to exist. ... This is not a problem if
678 the child process is about to call exec to run a new program, but if
679 you use fork to clone a threaded program, beware that you may lose
680 access to memory, especially heap memory stored only as
681 thread-specific data values."
683 Since P/Invoke currently requires using thread local storage, once you
684 fork(2) you won't be able to invoke exec(2) from managed code (since that
685 would require a P/Invoke transition to call exec(2), which would require
686 TLS, which doesn't exist in the new process).
688 This can only be fixed by removing the TLS dependency on P/Invoke, which
689 isn't a priority (and may not be possible).
691 The workaround is to create a C function which does your fork(2)/exec(2)
692 (and any other functions such as daemon(3)) on your behalf, and P/Invoke
693 to call this C function.
695 2005-04-18 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
697 * Syscall.cs: Update comment specifying which functions belong in Syscall.
698 * UnixConvert.cs: Add XattrFlags conversion functions.
699 * UnixMarshal.cs: Remove warning about self-assignment.
701 2005-04-16 Daniel Drake <dsd@gentoo.org>
703 * Syscall.cs: Add bindings for extended attribute manipulation
705 2005-04-05 Miguel de Icaza <miguel@novell.com>
707 * Syscall.cs: Set entry point for sys_syslog to be syslog.
708 Include the syslog.h header in the generated map so that we
709 actually do the mapping.
711 2005-03-28 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
713 * UnixConvert.cs: Add ToFopenMode() methods, which convert FileMode/FileAccess
714 into an fopen(3) mode string. ToOpenFlags() should throw
715 ArgumentOutOfRangeException for argument violations.
716 * StdioFileStream.cs: Add constructor overloads accepting filename and
717 FileMode/FileAccess overloads; Compatibility fixes with regression tests;
718 remove IDisposable implementation since System.IO.Stream already
719 implements it (which calls Close() for us).
721 2005-03-17 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
723 * Stdlib.cs: Move Errno-related functionality into Stdlib from Syscall,
724 since (1) errno is part of C89, and (2) StdioFileStream will need it, and
725 StdioFileStream shouldn't use Syscall. Add [UnmanagedFunctionPointer]
726 attribute to SignalHandler for .NET 2.0 (since signal handlers use C
727 calling convention, not Stdcall).
728 * Syscall.cs: Move Errno-related functionality into Stdlib.
729 * UnixMarshal.cs: Use ERANGE not EPERM when figuring out appropriate
730 translator, since ERANGE is part of C99 and EPERM isn't. Use Stdlib
731 instead of Syscall for Errno-related functionality.
733 2005-02-02 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
735 * UnixFile.cs: Cope with changes in UnixStream.
736 * UnixStream.cs: Change FileDescriptor property to Handle for consistency.
737 * StdioFileStream.cs: Change FileStream property to Handle for consistency.
739 2005-02-02 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
741 * Syscall.cs: Remove public sys_ methods. Some were public by mistake, and
742 others so that users could manually marshal strings if desired. Manually
743 marshaling strings shouldn't be necessary, though, so remove them too.
745 2005-02-02 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
747 * StdioFileStream.cs: Fix Length property to actually return the size of the
748 file, not the # of bytes from the current position to EOF. Oops.
750 2005-01-31 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
752 * Stdlib.cs: Import "msvcrt", not "libc". These members are part of the
753 ANSI C standard, and thus should be present on Windows via msvcrt.dll
754 (except snprintf, until they catch up to C99). Change the calling
755 convention of all functions to Cdecl, as the .NET default is Stdcall.
756 Changing the calling convention isn't needed in Syscall, as it can only be
757 run on Unix platforms anyway, where the default is Cdecl.
758 * Syscall.cs: Add LIBC member that points to the real "libc"; we can't use
759 the imported definition from Stdlib as "msvcrt" doesn't exist on Unix.
761 2005-01-29 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
763 * Stdlib.cs: sys_* functions shouldn't be public.
765 2005-01-13 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
767 * make-map.cs: libMonoPosixHelper exports Mono_Posix prefixes, not Mono_Unix
768 prefixes, so change the type and namespace to generate compatible code.
769 * Syscall.cs: Change OpenFlags values so they match the Linux values.
771 2005-01-13 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
773 * Stdlib.cs: Use Stdlib.LIBC instead of "libc".
774 * StdioFileStream.cs: Add FilePosition property (not that I expect anyone to
775 use it) and Rewind() method.
777 2005-01-05 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
779 * StdioFileStream.cs: Added; System.IO.Stream wrapper for C FILE struct.
780 * Stdlib.cs: Correct visibility of ftell().
782 2005-01-05 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
784 * Stdlib.cs: Re-order declarations to match the order used in the
785 C99 Standard Annex B; Complete <stdio.h> exports (except for those not
786 worth supporting); Add non-"unsafe" versions of fread(3), fwrite(3) and
787 add some rudimentary buffer-overflow checking; Add <stdlib.h> exports such
788 as getenv(3), exit(3), rand(3), EXIT_SUCCESS, RAND_MAX, etc.
790 2005-01-03 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
792 * Syscall.cs: Update endfsent() and setfsent() declarations, as these must
793 now be implemented in MonoPosixHelper.
795 2005-01-01 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
797 * Stdlib.cs, Syscall.cs: Minimize duplicate declarations of
798 "MonoPosixHelper" for use in DllImport statements.
800 2005-01-01 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
802 * Stdlib.cs: Don't use C# v2 features; fixes build under CSC.EXE.
804 2004-12-30 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
806 * Stdlib.cs: On miguel's suggestion, rename Sighandler_t to SignalHandler.
808 2004-12-30 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
810 * Stdlib.cs: Implement all C89 <stdio.h> functions except for the scanf(3)
811 family. These are too dangerous to expose.
813 2004-12-30 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
815 * CdeclFunctions.cs: Remove warning about unused variable.
816 * Stdlib.cs: Make signal(2) sane and (hopefully) complete.
817 * Syscall.cs: Fix cuserid Obsolete message to reference correct class name.
818 * UnixProcess.cs: Remove warning about unused variable.
819 * UnixMarshal.cs: Remove warnings about unused variables.
821 2004-12-29 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
823 * UnixPath.cs: Add ReadSymbolicLink(), which takes an intelligent approach
824 to reading symlinks (since their contents may be any size, we grow the
825 buffer dynamically to fit them all, instead of assuming a maximum size).
826 * UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs: Remove MaxContentsSize.
828 2004-12-29 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
830 * UnixPath.cs: Add check for when symlink points to a full path name.
832 2004-12-29 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
834 * Syscall.cs: Fix Object.Equals implementations.
835 * UnixPath.cs: New & improved, with Testing! GetRealPath() is changed so
836 that it doesn't walk the entire path looking for symlinks, it just reads
837 the leaf. GetCompletRealPath() walks the entire path resolving symlinks.
838 GetCanonicalPath() added, which "cleans up" a path (removing extraneous
839 "." and ".." entries).
840 * UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs: Rename ContentsLength -> MaxContentsSize.
842 2004-12-28 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
844 * UnixFileSystemInfo.cs: Add a link(2) wrapper, CreateLink(). Strictly
845 speaking it's only "safe" to do this on files, but an exception will be
846 returned if the user tries to hard link directories (because of EPERM),
847 unless the user is root, in which case it should be allowed anyway...
849 2004-12-28 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
851 * CdeclFunctions.cs: Correct the comments for AMD64
852 * UnixDirectoryInfo.cs: override Name; add Parent & Root properties;
853 Correct Path usage (s/Path/FullPath/g).
854 * UnixDriveInfo.cs: Added. Based on .NET 2.0 System.IO.DriveInfo docs,
855 provides statvfs(2) and getfsfile(3) information about a mounted volume.
856 GetDrives() wraps getfsent(3), thus parsing /etc/fstab.
857 * UnixFile.cs: Use UnixConver.ToOpenFlags, deleting the local version.
858 * UnixFileInfo.cs: Use UnixConver.ToOpenFlags, deleting the local version;
859 override Name; add DirectoryName and Directory properties;
860 * UnixFileSystemInfo.cs: Make more .NET-like, using FullPath and
861 OriginalPath protected members, abstract Name property; Add
862 CreateSymbolicLink; Remove ReadLink (it's now
863 UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.Contents); Use lstat(2) for Create(string), so we
864 properly detect Symbolic Links.
865 * UnixPath.cs: Added; Path manipulation utility functions.
866 * UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs:
868 - override new abstract member Name;
869 - rename ReadLink to ContentsPath (and Contents) properties
870 (why "Contents"? Because readlink(2) says "readlink places the
871 contents of the symbolic link in the buffer...")
872 - Add CreateSymbolicLinkTo(), which creates a symlink to the specified
875 2004-12-28 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
877 * Stdlib.cs: Add syslog(3) to XPrintfFunctions; Add additional printf(3)
878 and fprintf(3) overload which properly escape the format string
879 (by using "%s" as the format for the user-supplied message).
880 * Syscall.cs: Add #regions for enummerations, structures, classes; Wrap
881 syslog(3) and related enumerations; fix operator!= on Dirent, Group;
882 wrap {f}statvfs(2); wrap <fstab.h> entries (getfsent(3), etc.).
883 * UnixConvert.cs: Add Syslog-releated enumeration translation functions;
884 Move ToOpenFlags here from UnixFile and UnixFileInfo.
885 * UnixMarshal.cs: Missing P/Invoke methods throw
886 EntryPointNotFoundException, not MissingMethodException; add
887 EscapeFormatString, which escapes printf-style format strings so that they
888 can be safely handed off to native code (avoiding stack overflow, etc);
889 make CreateExceptionForError internal.
891 2004-12-15 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
893 * Stdlib.cs: Add more <stdio.h> wrappers, such as fread(3) and fwrite(3).
894 These will be useful in implementing System.IO.Stream subclass for
895 reading/writing to a FILE*. Fix a typo in the realloc(3) DllImport.
896 * Syscall.cs: Fix the sys_kill and sys_crypt declarations.
897 * CdeclFunction.cs: Document calling convention problems on AMD64.
899 2004-11-18 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
901 * CdeclFunction.cs: Added.
902 * Stdlib.cs: Re-add printf(3) and fprintf(3). They may not be portable (the
903 jury is still out on that; the AMD64 SysV ABI looks like it should be
904 portable to AMD64 to my eyes), but they will work on *some* platforms, so
905 we should permit it. The new implementation takes a page out of
906 cocoa-sharp: use System.Reflection.Emit to generate a P/Invoke method at
907 runtime to invoke printf(3) or fprintf(3). This way, we can export a
908 params signature to C# code, permitting natural usage such as:
909 Stdlib.printf ("Hello, %s world! (%i)\n", "silly", 42);
910 * Syscall.cs: Mark which headers are complete, which functions still need
911 wrapping (for headers which have anything done to them), add #region
912 blocks for each header;
913 export mkfifo(3), fexecve(), getppid(2), setlogin(); fix sleep(3) export.
914 * UnixEnvironment.cs: Export a friendly getppid(2) wrapper.
915 GetParentProcessId isn't in UnixProcess as there's no way (that I know of)
916 to get the Parent's Parent, so it can't be a class member, and exposing it
917 as a static member of UnixProcess doesn't make sense to me, as it isn't
918 general. Added GetUserShells().
919 * UnixProcess.cs: Change constructor to internal, so it can be used from
922 2004-11-16 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
924 * Stdlib.cs: Remove printf(3) and fprintf(3). These are vararg/CDECL
925 functions, and it's not portable to call them in this manner.
926 (It's not portable because some architectures, such as AMD64, use a
927 "cookie" as part of the vararg calling sequence to help reduce buffer
928 overflow exploits. Trying to call vararg functions as if they were an
929 overloaded function will not properly set this hardware cookie, resulting
930 in a hardware exception. Talk to lupus for more information.)
932 2004-11-16 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
934 * Syscall.cs, UnixConvert.cs: Remove mount- and umount-related
935 functionality. Mount/umount is inherently non-portable (see the C code
936 for mount/umount), and trying to provide a consistent interface is
937 impossible. If you need mount/umount support, use the command-line
938 programs mount(1) and umount(1).
940 2004-11-16 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
942 + Lots o' Renames, as the namespace changed.
943 * PosixConvert.cs: Moved to UnixConvert.cs:
944 * PosixDirectory.cs: Moved to UnixDirectory.cs:
945 * PosixEnvironment.cs: Moved to UnixEnvironment.cs:
946 * PosixDirectoryInfo.cs: Moved to UnixDirectoryInfo.cs:
947 * PosixFile.cs: Moved to UnixFile.cs:
948 * PosixFileInfo.cs: Moved to UnixFileInfo.cs:
949 * PosixFileSystemInfo.cs: Moved to UnixFileSystemInfo.cs:
950 * PosixGroup.cs: Moved to UnixGroup.cs:
951 * PosixGroupInfo.cs: Moved to UnixGroupInfo.cs:
952 * PosixIOException.cs: Moved to UnixIOException.cs:
953 * PosixMarshal.cs: Moved to UnixMarshal.cs:
954 * PosixProcess.cs: Moved to UnixProcess.cs:
955 * PosixStream.cs: Moved to UnixStream.cs:
956 * PosixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs: Moved to UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs:
957 * PosixUser.cs: Moved to UnixUser.cs:
958 * PosixUserInfo.cs: Moved to UnixUserInfo.cs:
959 * Catalog.cs, IncludeAttribute.cs, MapAttribute.cs, PeerCred.cs, Stdlib.cs,
960 Syscall.cs, UnixConvert.cs, UnixDirectory.cs, UnixDirectoryInfo.cs,
961 UnixEndPoint.cs, UnixEnvironment.cs, UnixFile.cs, UnixFileInfo.cs,
962 UnixFileSystemInfo.cs, UnixGroup.cs, UnixGroupInfo.cs, UnixIOException.cs,
963 UnixMarshal.cs, UnixProcess.cs, UnixStream.cs, UnixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs,
964 UnixUser.cs, UnixUserInfo.cs: Deal with renamed classes/members.
966 2004-11-15 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
968 * PosixUserInfo.cs: Make the PosixUserInfo(Passwd) constructor public;
969 override Object.GetHashCode and Object.Equals.
970 * PosixGroupInfo.cs: Make the PosixGroupInfo(Group) constructor public;
971 override Object.GetHashCode and Object.Equals.
972 * PosixIOException.cs: Use PosixMarshal.GetErrorDescription instead of
973 calling Syscall.strerror_r directly
974 * PosixMarshal.cs: Add GetErrorDescription. Strerror_r() isn't portable, so
975 GetErrorDescription() first tries strerror_r(), and if it fails falls back
978 - Seal the Dirent class. It has no virtual members, so there's no point
979 in it being non-sealed. Override Object.GetHashCode and Object.Equals.
980 - Seal the Group class. It has no virtual members, so there's no point
981 in it being non-sealed. Override Object.GetHashCode and Object.Equals.
982 Provide operator== and operator!=.
983 - Seal the Passwd class. It has no virtual members, so there's no point
984 in it being non-sealed. Override Object.GetHashCode and Object.Equals.
985 Provide operator== and operator!=.
986 - Remove strerror_r() convenience overload. This is now
987 PosixMarshal.GetErrorDescription().
989 2004-11-12 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
991 * Syscall.cs: Export time-related functions (gettimeofday, settimeofday,
992 utime, utimes), mknod.
994 2004-11-07 Atsushi Enomoto <atsushi@ximian.com>
996 * PosixEnvironment.cs : csc build fix. see bug #69195.
997 * PosixStream.cs : csc build fix. see bug #69196.
999 2004-11-05 Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>
1001 * PosixConvert.cs: New file; conversion functions for Mono.Posix types.
1002 * PosixDirectory.cs: New file; Friendly wrapper over directory information.
1003 * PosixDirectoryInfo.cs: New file; Friendly wrapper over directory information.
1004 * PosixEnvironment.cs: New file; Friendly wrapper over environment information.
1005 * PosixFile.cs: New file; Friendly wrapper over file information.
1006 * PosixFileInfo.cs: New file; Friendly wrapper over file information.
1007 * PosixFileSystemInfo.cs: New file; Friendly wrapper over `stat'.
1008 * PosixGroup.cs: New file; User Group-related functionality
1009 * PosixGroupInfo.cs: New file; User Group-related functionality
1010 * PosixIOException.cs: New file; Exception for POSIX-generated exceptions.
1011 * PosixMarshal.cs: New file; utility functions for marshaling, etc.
1012 * PosixProcess.cs: New file; Friendly wrapper over process information.
1013 * PosixStream.cs: New file; Friendly wrapper over file descriptors.
1014 * PosixSymbolicLinkInfo.cs: New file; Friendly wrapper over symbolic links.
1015 * PosixUser.cs: New file; Friendly wrapper over user information.
1016 * PosixUserInfo.cs: New file; Friendly wrapper over user information.
1017 * Stdlib.cs: New file; C standard library exports.
1018 * Syscall.cs: Effective re-write.
1019 - Organize exports by header file
1020 - add additional enumerations (Error for the E* error values, etc.)
1021 - always explicitly specify enumeration underlying type
1022 - Use a new wrapping infrastructure so that ABI-stable types are exported
1023 - For example, size_t is exported as ulong, not IntPtr.
1024 - Wrap more functions, and wrap them better (such as getpwnam).
1025 - This release is NOT backward compatible. Many names are the same, and
1026 hopefully they're still compatible, but no effort was made to maintain
1027 compatibility. For example, FileMode was removed and replaced with
1028 FilePermissions, to avoid a name conflict with System.IO.FileMode.
1029 - Change umount() to use MonoPosixHelper: portability fix for Mac OS X.
1030 * make-map.cs: Another effective re-write, to clean up the code, produce
1031 better output, and produce more output. For example, most of
1032 PosixConvert can be auto-generated, so it is (modulo version delays and
1033 bootstrap issues). `map.c' is now conditional on all macros, and has
1034 error checking for invalid/unsupported values.
1036 2004-09-18 Jackson Harper <jackson@ximian.com>
1038 * Syscall.cs: Add support for poll ().
1040 2004-09-18 Jackson Harper <jackson@ximian.com>
1042 * make-map.cs: Use field value not name for #defines.
1044 2004-09-14 Loren Bandiera <lorenb@mmgsecurity.com>
1046 * Syscall.cs: Added method for getpwnam which uses Passwd
1048 * macros.c: Helper function for getpwnam
1049 (In committing, Josh Tauberer also added getpwuid.)
1051 2004-07-09 Dick Porter <dick@ximian.com>
1053 * PeerCred.cs: Get the unix socket peer credentials.
1055 2004-05-26 Miguel de Icaza <miguel@ximian.com>
1057 * Syscall.cs: Do not let the runtime handle strings, as we do not
1058 own those strings, we must transform the char * into a string
1061 2004-05-03 Miguel de Icaza <miguel@ximian.com>
1063 * Syscall.cs: Add symlink
1065 2004-04-19 Miguel de Icaza <miguel@ximian.com>
1067 * Syscall.cs: Use hex values for FileMode, since C# does not have
1068 an octal integer mode.
1070 2004-03-30 Joshua Tauberer <tauberer@for.net>
1072 * Added readlink, strerror, opendir, readdir, closedir
1073 * Added Mono.Posix.Stat.UnixToDateTime(long unixtime) --> DateTime
1075 2004-03-11 Joshua Tauberer <tauberer@for.net>
1077 * Syscall.cs: Removed argument to getgid that shouldn't be there.
1078 Added getusername, getgroupname which wrap getpwuid, getgrgid
1079 without dealing with pointers to structures.
1080 Removed duplicate FileMode enum nested in Syscall class.
1081 Added stat and lstat, which use StatMode enumeration
1082 (like FileMode but nicer and complete) and Stat struct.
1083 * macros.c: Helper functions for getpwuid, getgrgid, stat, lstat.
1085 2004-01-07 Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>
1087 * Syscall.cs: moved the assembly attribute to a proper place
1088 and added 'signal.h'
1089 * make-map.cs: use reflection to invoke the properties, as it
1090 fails under MS runtime.
1093 2004-01-05 Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>
1095 * Syscall.cs: moved assembly attribute and added unsafe block to fix
1096 the build on windows.
1098 2003-11-11 Wojciech Polak <polak@gnu.org
1100 * Syscall.cs: Applied patch from Wojciech Polak <polak@gnu.org> to
1103 2003-05-16 Dick Porter <dick@ximian.com>
1105 * UnixEndPoint.cs: New property to get and set the filename, like
1106 the IPEndPoint has for the IP address. Also implement ToString().
1108 Tue Apr 29 16:53:56 CEST 2003 Paolo Molaro <lupus@ximian.com>
1110 * Syscall.cs: remove the unsafe mess.
1112 2003-02-05 Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>
1115 * UnixEndPoint.cs: first file.
