        * appdomain.c (mono_domain_transfer_object): impl. hack for Arrays
        and String - but we will need generic marshalling support in the
        future. 
        (mono_init): set the domain name in a ms compatible way

        * object.c (mono_string_new_utf16): bug fix: use char[] instead of

        * socket-io.c (convert_sockopt_level_and_name): If the system
        doesn't define SOL_IP or SOL_TCP, get them by hand using
        getprotobyname() and caching the values (because this could be a
        slow operation).
        (ves_icall_System_Net_Sockets_Socket_SetSocketOption_internal):
        Use the appropriate struct when the system does support it. Ie,
        not all systems have struct ip_mreqn so use struct ip_mreq when

        truth statement in the for-loop.

        * unicode.c (iconv_convert): Got rid of a compiler warning about
        int i being unused when the system has a new iconv.
        (iconv_get_length): Same.

        * image.c (load_class_names): Cast the second argument to
        g_hash_table_insert() to char* to hush compiler warnings about the
        arg being a const.
        (mono_image_open): Same here.

        * socket-io.c: Don't conditionally include sys/filio.h or
        sys/sockio.h here anymore since we now get them from
        io-layer/io-layer.h
        (inet_pton): If the system doesn't support inet_aton, implement
        using inet_addr and also #define INADDR_NONE if it isn't defined
        by the system.

Thu Feb 14 19:01:06 CET 2002 Paolo Molaro <lupus@ximian.com>

        * metadata.c, metadata.h: added function to get packing and size info
        of a typedef.
        * reflection.h, reflection.c: handle field RVA data. Save info about

        before dumping the info about them to avoid forward reference problems.

2002-02-14  Dietmar Maurer  <dietmar@ximian.com>

        * socket-io.c (convert_sockopt_level_and_name): ifdef
        SO_ACCEPTCONN because it is not defined on my system (old debian)

        * opcode.c: use stddef.h to get NULL.

2002-02-14  Jeffrey Stedfast  <fejj@ximian.com>

        * socket-io.c: conditionally include sys/filio.h and sys/sockio.h
        for FIONBIO, FIONREAD and SIOCATMARK.
        (ves_icall_System_Net_Dns_GetHostByAddr_internal): SunOS doesn't
        define INADDR_NONE and besides, inet_addr() is deprecated and
        should not be used. Use inet_pton() instead - it also has the
        added bonus that it can easily handle IPv6 addresses as well.
        (inet_pton): Implement using inet_aton() ifndef HAVE_INET_PTON.

Wed Feb 13 23:00:21 CET 2002 Paolo Molaro <lupus@ximian.com>

        code.

Wed Feb 13 18:25:55 CET 2002 Paolo Molaro <lupus@ximian.com>

        * reflection.c: the best way to speed-up the compiler is to avoid
        infinite loops.

2002-02-13  Dietmar Maurer  <dietmar@ximian.com>

        * class.c (mono_class_vtable): changed the object layout

        * icall.c (ves_icall_appdomain_get_default_assemblies): put this
        code back.  This should return the assemblies that are loaded by
        the runtime on behalf of an application domain. 

        The current implementation is still broken, it just returns every
        assembly loaded, but until we get real applications domain this
        will do.

        with the class library's

        Fix a particularly egregious bug in mono_thread_cleanup(). That

2001-12-21  Miguel de Icaza  <miguel@ximian.com>

        * rawbuffer.cs: Added native Win32 implementation, avoids using

        * icall.c (ves_icall_System_DateTime_GetNow): impl.

Mon Dec 3 17:02:01 CET 2001 Paolo Molaro <lupus@ximian.com>

        * class.c: init enum types right away and register the
        token->MonoClass map in mono_class_create_from_typedef ().
        * verify.h, verify.c: first cut of the verifier.
        * pedump.c: add --verify switch to verify metadata tables.

        add mono-endian.c back

        * mono-endian.c: returned back, as Paolo pointed out, it's needed
        for unaligned access, I've mistaked it with endianess. I am
        sorry.
        (mono_read16): fix reverted endianess
        (mono_read64): ditto
        (mono_read32): ditto

        interp.

2001-11-29  Radek Doulik  <rodo@ximian.com>

        * object.c (mono_ldstr): swap bytes here, it's probably not the
        best place, but works for me now, I'll redo it once I know mono
        better, also note that I add PROT_WRITE and don't reset back, also
        note that it's only affects big endians, so x86 should be OK

        * mono-endian.h (read16): use just glib macros for both endians

        * mono-endian.c: removed as glib macros are used in in
        mono-endian.h so we don't need to care about endianess for read
        macros as glib does that for us already

Thu Nov 29 18:20:58 CET 2001 Paolo Molaro <lupus@ximian.com>

        * class.h, class.h: take minimum alignment into consideration so

        a single file that uses the new wrapper library

Mon Nov 19 11:37:14 CET 2001 Paolo Molaro <lupus@ximian.com>

        * class.c, class.h: add mono_install_trampoline() so that the runtime
        can register a function to create a trampoline: removes the ugly
        requirement that a runtime needed to export arch_create_jit_trampoline.
        * object.h, object.c: added mono_install_handler() so that the runtime
        can install an handler for exceptions generated in C code (with
        mono_raise_exception()). Added C struct for System.Delegate.
        * pedump.c: removed arch_create_jit_trampoline.
        * reflection.c: some cleanups to allow registering user strings and
        later getting a token for methodrefs and fieldrefs before the assembly
        is built.
        * row-indexes.h: updates and fixes from the new ECMA specs.

Thu Nov 15 17:44:49 CET 2001 Paolo Molaro <lupus@ximian.com>

        to get index in the constant table reated to a field, param or
        property.
        * reflection.h, reflection.c: handle constructors. Set public-key and
        version number of the built assembly to 0.
        * row-indexes.h: update from new ECMA spec.

Wed Nov 14 19:26:06 CET 2001 Paolo Molaro <lupus@ximian.com>

        * icall.c: rename my_mono_new_object() to my_mono_new_mono_type()
        since it's used to do that. Added mono_type_type_from_obj().
        Make GetType() return NULL instead of segfaulting if the type was not
        found. Handle simple arrays in assQualifiedName.
        * object.h: add a struct to represent an Exception.
        * reflection.c: output call convention in method signature.
        Add code to support P/Invoke methods and fixed offsets for fields.

Mon Nov 12 12:41:32 CET 2001 Paolo Molaro <lupus@ximian.com>

        * decimal.c, decimal.h: mono_double2decimal() get the sign bit from
        the value.
        * icall.c: use mono_array_addr instead of array->vector: fixes the
        reflection image writing.
        * reflection.c: init call convention byte to 0 in method signature.
        Encode the property signature. Don't output property-related methods
        twice. Really process the properties for a type (don't cast a field to
        a property, my mom always told me that).
        Fix 64 bit issues in pointer alignment in a different and more
        readable way.

2001-11-10  Sean MacIsaac  <macisaac@ximian.com>

        * loader.h: Removed type class from MonoDefaults, added monotype

        * loader.c: Loaded MonoType, removed loading of Type

        * icall.c (my_mono_new_object): Now returns a System.MonoType,
        and fills in System.Type._impl with a RuntimeTypeHandle rather
        than the actual MonoClass *

        (ves_icall_type_from_handle): change from type_class to
        monotype_class

        Changes to match the new MonoArray structure.
        * object.h, object.c: an array object doesn't allocate an extra

        MonoString instead of MonoObject.
        * reflection.c, reflection.h: updates for changes in the reflection
        code in corlib: we use C structures that map to the actual C# classes.
        Handle SZARRAYs when encoding types. Handle locals in methods. Use a
        fat method header if needed and use the info from the ILGenerator for
        methods. Handle fields in types. Misc fixes.

        contains pointers into the vtable - this is more efficient for the jit

2001-10-12  Dietmar Maurer  <dietmar@ximian.com>

        * class.c (mono_class_metadata_init): use a temporary vtable (the
        old algorithm only worked for the interpreter, but not for the jit)

2001-10-11  Dietmar Maurer  <dietmar@ximian.com>

        * loader.c (method_from_memberref): use mono_class_get to get the

        Provide macros to do the interesting things on arrays in a portable way.
        * threads-pthread.c: updates for the API changes and #include <sched.h>

Thu Oct 4 19:10:30 CEST 2001 Paolo Molaro <lupus@ximian.com>

        * class.c: MonoTypes stored in MonoClass are stored as
        fundamental MonoTypes when the class represents a
        fundamental type (System.Int32, ...).
        The TypeHandle return by ldtoken is a MonoType*.
        * icall.c: ves_icall_get_data_chunk () write out all the
        PE/COFF stuff. Implement ves_icall_define_method (),
        ves_icall_set_method_body (), ves_icall_type_from_handle ().

        We don't need a MonoMetadata pointer anymore to compare signatures in
        mono_metadata_signature_equal (), update callers.
        Reduced memory usage an number of allocations for MonoMethodHeader and
        MonoMethodSignature.

Sun Aug 26 23:03:09 CEST 2001 Paolo Molaro <lupus@ximian.com>

Sun Aug 26 11:34:24 CEST 2001 Paolo Molaro <lupus@ximian.com>

        * class.h, class.c, loader.h, loader.c: export mono_class_from_mono_type ()
        and add a couple more types to it and mono_defaults. Give an hint on
        classes that need implementing in our corlib and are referenced
        in mscorlib.

Sat Aug 25 12:52:54 CEST 2001 Paolo Molaro <lupus@ximian.com>

        * class.h, class.c: keep track if a class is also an Enum.
        * loader.c: Implement a couple more types for use in libffi
        marshalling. Gives better diagnostics when failing to dlopen

        * class.c, class.h: add a MonoType this_arg to MonoClass that
        represents a pointer to an object of the class' type that
        can be used by the interpreter and later the type cache.
        Add best guess alignment info for valuetype objects.

Fri Aug 24 15:50:31 CEST 2001 Paolo Molaro <lupus@ximian.com>

        * metadata.h, metadata.c, class.h, class.c: squeezed MonoParam
        into MonoType: one less level of indirection and allocation and
        simplifies quite a bit of code. Added cache for MonoTypes that are
        used frequently, so that we don't need to allocate them all the time.

2001-08-24  Dietmar Maurer  <dietmar@ximian.com>

        * class.c (mono_class_create_from_typedef): System.Enum is also a
        value type, although it does not derive from System.ValueType
        (maybe a bug in the ms compiler?)

        * metadata.c (mono_type_size): return the right size for value types

        * loader.c (mono_get_method): only initialize method header if not abstract

        * class.c (mono_class_metadata_init): impl.
        (mono_class_instance_size): impl.
        (mono_class_data_size): impl.

Wed Aug 22 16:27:30 CEST 2001 Paolo Molaro <lupus@ximian.com>

        * metadata.c, loader.h, loader.c, image.h, image.c, class.h, class.c:
        MonoClass now has the name and name_space fields. 
        MonoMethod has a pointer to its MonoClass, instead of MonoImage.
        mono_get_method () takes and optional MonoClass as argument.
        Removed mono_typedef_from_name() and added mono_class_token_from_name()
        instead that takes advantage of a map from class names to typedef
        tokens in MonoImage.

Tue Aug 21 18:54:58 CEST 2001 Paolo Molaro <lupus@ximian.com>

        * metadata.c: zero is not a valid alignment boundary.
        Merge MONO_TYPE_VOID in default decoding code.

2001-08-21  Dietmar Maurer  <dietmar@ximian.com>

        * image.h: merged MonoMetadata into MonoImage

        add explanation for the locator routine.
        Fix decoding of size in method header.
        
2001-08-20  Miguel de Icaza  <miguel@ximian.com>

        * assembly.c    (g_concat_dir_and_file): Use _S for string concat.
        (g_concat_dir_and_file): Bring g_concat_dir_and_file
        function from gnome-libs.  This uses the right path separator
        based on the OS, and also works around a bug in some systems where
        a double slash is not allowed. 
        (default_assembly_name_resolver): Use g_concat_dir_and_file
        (mono_assembly_open): ditto.

2001-08-20  Dietmar Maurer  <dietmar@ximian.com>

        * metadata.c (mono_metadata_signature_equal): impl.

        * metadata.c (do_mono_metadata_parse_type): use
        mono_metadata_parse_type to parse void value.

Sat Aug 18 12:51:28 CEST 2001 Paolo Molaro <lupus@ximian.com>

        only the space required for holding the loca vars and incoming arguments.

2001-08-15  Dietmar Maurer  <dietmar@ximian.com>

        * metadata.c (do_mono_metadata_parse_type): treat void like any
        other type (instead of assigning NULL);

2001-08-14  Dietmar Maurer  <dietmar@ximian.com>

        * metadata.c (mono_metadata_parse_mh): fixxed pinned/byref value

2001-08-09  Dietmar Maurer  <dietmar@ximian.com>

        * image.c (do_mono_image_open): added a cache for arrays.

Sat Aug 4 12:46:02 CEST 2001 Paolo Molaro <lupus@ximian.com>

        * metadata.h, metadata.c: add mono_metadata_decode_row_col () to
        decode a single column from a row in a metadata table and changes
        to take advantage of it in the typedef locator (gives a nice speed up).
        Store offset info for function params.

2001-08-02  Dietmar Maurer  <dietmar@ximian.com>

        * image.h (MONO_IMAGE_IS_CORLIB): removed 

Wed Aug 1 22:54:08 CEST 2001 Paolo Molaro <lupus@ximian.com>

        * assembly.c: how could mono_assembly_close () had ever worked?
        * metadata.c, metadata.h: provide offset info for local vars.
        Implement mono_type_size () to take care of alignment as well
        as size (it was mono_field_type_size in cli/class.c before).

2001-08-01  Dietmar Maurer  <dietmar@ximian.com>

        * image.h (MONO_IMAGE_IS_CORLIB): new macro to check root image

        * assembly.h (CORLIB_NAME): set to corlib.dll

        * assembly.c (mono_assembly_open): replaced strcmp() with !strcmp()

Tue Jul 31 17:54:02 CEST 2001 Paolo Molaro <lupus@ximian.com>

        * metadata.h, metadata.c, Makefile.am, private.h, assembly.c, blob.h,
        cil-coff.h, image.c, image.h, pedump.c, rawbuffer.c, rawbuffer.h, row-indexes.h,

Thu Jul 26 19:11:19 CEST 2001 Paolo Molaro <lupus@ximian.com>

        * metadata.h, row_indexes.h: added header with enumerations to use
        to index in the columns from tables in metadata and to decode coded
        tokens: we should start using this instead of embedding magic numbers
        all over the code.

Thu Jul 26 13:03:27 CEST 2001 Paolo Molaro <lupus@ximian.com>

        * assembly.c, cil-coff.h, image.c, image.h, pedump.c, typedef.c:
        Move metadata_t info from cli_image_info_t to MonoImage, where
        it's easily accessible. Changed all the uses accordingly.
        Added the method and class caches to MonoImage.
        * metadata.c, metadata.h: Changed mono_metadata_decode_blob_size ()
        and mono_metadata_decode_value () signature to be more consistent
        with the other parse functions (and simplify code). Taken advantage
        of zero-length array allocation with GCC. Removed reduntant (and
        wrong) MonoFieldType struct and use MonoParam instead. Changed
        mono_metadata_parse_field_type () to use common code for parsing.
        Added mono_metadata_typedef_from_field () and
        mono_metadata_typedef_from_method () to lookup a typedef index from a
        field or method token.
        Pack the MonoRetType structure more tightly (fits in 8 bytes now).

2001-07-23  Miguel de Icaza  <miguel@ximian.com>

        * metadata.c (mono_metadata_parse_field_type): Implement. 
        (do_mono_metadata_parse_type): Split engine from
        mono_metadata_parse_type, so that we can create smaller structures

        the MonoFieldType)

2001-07-20  Miguel de Icaza  <miguel@ximian.com>

        * metadata.c (mono_metadata_parse_mh): Correct the implementation,
        as Jan Gray found out, it is incorrect. 

2001-07-18  Miguel de Icaza  <miguel@ximian.com>

        * assembly.c: Implement asssembly loading.  This loads an image
        and loads all the referenced assemblies.  Come to think of it, we
        could always do lazy loading of the assemblies. 

        * image.c (mono_image_open): Keep loaded images in a hashtable.

        * image.h (MonoImage): Add reference count.

2001-07-17  Miguel de Icaza  <miguel@ximian.com>

        * assembly.c (mono_assembly_open): Keep track of the file name in
        case the assembly has no ASSEMBLY table.

        * metadata.c, metadata.h: decode local vars in method header
        parse function. Change callers accordingly.

Sun Jul 15 17:40:47 CEST 2001 Paolo Molaro <lupus@ximian.com>

        * metadata.h, cil-coff.h: protect against multiple inclusion.
        Added some new structures to hold information decoded from metadata:
        MonoType, MonoParam, MonoArray, MonoMethod, MonoMethodSignature
        and relevant decoding/free functions.
        * metadata.c: implement decoding functions. Add warning for out of bounds
        index in mono_metadata_locate(). Implement mono_get_method () to retreive
        all the info about a method signature and invocation. Remove check on
        uninitialized local var in parse_mh() and fix memory leak.

2001-07-12  Miguel de Icaza  <miguel@ximian.com>

        * metadata.h: More macros.

        and add other checks for out-of bound access to metadata.

Thu Jul  5 22:34:21 CEST 2001 Paolo Molaro <lupus@ximian.com>

        * metatada.c: fix bugs computing table sizes. Spew a

        * metadata.h: Add a couple of macros to manipulate tokens. 

Tue Jul  3 18:33:32 CEST 2001 Paolo Molaro <lupus@ximian.com>

        * assembly.c: g_free(ii->cli_sections) (and avoid double free of
        cli_section_tables).

2001-07-01  Miguel de Icaza  <miguel@ximian.com>

        * metadata.c (mono_metadata_user_string): New function, provides
