2014-09-09  Donal Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	=== RELEASE OF TCLOO VERSION 1.0.2 ===

	Patch release to correspond with Tcl 8.6.2.

	* generic/tclOO.c (InitFoundation): [7d52e1101b]: Ensure that
	oo::class is shown as a subclass of oo::object.
	* generic/tclOO.c (ReleaseClassContents): [75b8433707]: Plug a memory
	leak in the test suite related to destruction ordering.  (Thanks to
	Don Porter.)
	* generic/tclOO.h, generic/pkgoo.c: [f51efe99a7]: Adjustments to
	symbol exporting to ensure that the TclOO stub API is correctly
	provided to other packages. (Thanks to Jan Nijtmans.)

2013-09-19  Donal Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	=== RELEASE OF TCLOO VERSION 1.0.1 ===

	Patch release to correspond with Tcl 8.6.1.

	* doc/next.n (METHOD SEARCH ORDER): Bug [3606943]: Corrected
	description of method search order.

2013-08-02  Donal Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOODefineCmds.c (ClassSuperSet): Bug [9d61624b3d]: Stop
	crashes when emptying the superclass slot, even when doing elaborate
	things with metaclasses.

2013-02-09  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOOBasic.c (TclOO_Object_VarName): [Bug 3603695]: Change
	the way that the 'varname' method is implemented so that there are no
	longer problems with interactions due to the resolver. Thanks to
	Taylor Venable <tcvena@gmail.com> for identifying the problem.

2012-12-21  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	=== RELEASE OF TCLOO VERSION 1.0 ===

	This officially corresponds to the version of TclOO that is included
	with Tcl 8.6.0, except for features (notably coroutine support) that
	require the 8.6 runtime and not-officially-observable differences like
	the degree of bytecode compilation support.

2012-11-09  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* doc/OOInitStubs.3: Added description of how to use Tcl_OOInitStubs
	to initialize the TclOO C interface.

2012-07-26  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	=== RELEASE OF TCLOO VERSION 0.7 ===

	* generic/tclOO.c (ObjectRenamedTrace, ReleaseClassContents):
	[Bug 3547839]: Use the memory management scheme used in version of
	TclOO that is included in Tcl 8.6, as that doesn't crash when objects
	are ripped out from underneath its feet.
	(Tcl_NewObjectInstance): [Bug 2903011]: Improve fix of this bug; a
	reference must be held from before the constructor is invoked to after
	any resulting deletions are done.

2012-05-20  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOOBasic.c (TclOO_Class_Constructor): [Bug 2023112]: Cut
	the amount of hackiness in class constructors, and refactor some of
	the error message handling from [oo::define] to be saner in the face
	of odd happenings.

2012-04-10  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOODefineCmds.c (ClassVarsSet, ObjVarsSet): [Bug 3396896]:
	Ensure that the lists of variable names used to drive variable
	resolution will never have the same name twice.

2012-04-04  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOO.c (Tcl_NewObjectInstance, TclNRNewObjectInstance):
	[Bug 3514761]: Fixed bogosity with automated argument description
	handling when constructing an instance of a class that is itself a
	member of an ensemble. Thanks to Andreas Kupries for identifying that
	this was a problem case at all!
	(Tcl_CopyObjectInstance): Fix potential bleed-over of ensemble
	information into [oo::copy].

2012-03-27  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	IMPLEMENTATION OF TIP#397.

	* generic/tclOO.c (Tcl_CopyObjectInstance): [Bug 3474460]: Make the
	target object name optional when copying classes. [RFE 3485060]: Add
	callback method ("<cloned>") so that scripted control over copying is
	easier.
	***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
	If you'd previously been using the "<cloned>" method name, this now
	has a standard semantics and call interface. Only a problem if you are
	also using [oo::copy].

2012-03-23  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	IMPLEMENTATION OF TIP#380.

	* doc/define.n, doc/object.n, generic/tclOO.c, generic/tclOOBasic.c:
	* generic/tclOOCall.c, generic/tclOODefineCmds.c, generic/tclOOInt.h:
	* tests/oo.test: Switch definitions of lists of things in objects and
	classes to a slot-based approach, which gives a lot more flexibility
	and programmability at the script-level. Introduce new [::oo::Slot]
	class which is the implementation of these things.

	***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
	The unknown method handler now may be asked to deal with the case
	where no method name is provided at all. The default implementation
	generates a compatible error message, and any override that forces the
	presence of a first argument (i.e., a method name) will continue to
	function as at present as well, so this is a pretty small change.

2012-02-21  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* Makefile.in (install-package, install-libraries): [Bug 3490157]:
	Don't use ranlib during installation process. It's already been done
	during build.

2012-01-25  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOO.c (Tcl_CopyObjectInstance): [Bug 3474460]: When
	copying an object, make sure that the configuration of the variable
	resolver is also duplicated.

2011-08-07  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOOInfo.c (InfoClassCallCmd): [Bug 3387082]: Plug memory
	leak in call chain introspection.

2011-07-14  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOOCall.c (TclOORenderCallChain): [Bug 3365156]: Remove
	stray refcount bump that caused a memory leak.

2011-05-25  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	IMPLEMENTATION OF TIP#381.

	* doc/next.n, doc/ooInfo.n, doc/self.n, generic/tclOO.c,
	* generic/tclOOBasic.c, generic/tclOOCall.c, generic/tclOOInfo.c,
	* generic/tclOOInt.h, tests/oo.test, tests/ooNext2.test: Added
	introspection of call chains ([self call], [info object call], [info
	class call]) and ability to skip ahead in chain ([nextto]).

2011-03-11  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOO.c (Tcl_NewObjectInstance, TclNRNewObjectInstance)
	(TclOOObjectCmdCore, FinalizeObjectCall):
	* generic/tclOOBasic.c (TclOO_Object_Destroy, AfterNRDestructor):
	* generic/tclOOCall.c (TclOODeleteContext, TclOOGetCallContext):
	Reorganization of call context reference count management so that code
	is (mostly) simpler.

	* generic/tclOOMethod.c (ProcedureMethodCompiledVarConnect)
	(ProcedureMethodCompiledVarDelete): [Bug 3185009]: Keep references to
	resolved object variables so that an unset doesn't leave any dangling
	pointers for code to trip over.

2011-01-18  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOOMethod.c (PushMethodCallFrame): [Bug 3001438]: Make
	sure that the cmdPtr field of the procPtr is correct and relevant at
	all times so that [info frame] can report sensible information about a
	frame after a return to it from a recursive call, instead of probably
	crashing (depending on what else has overwritten the Tcl stack!)

2010-11-09  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* tests/oo.test: [Bug 3105999]: Backport of memory tests (issue itself
	did not exist in this branch of the code).

2010-03-24  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOOInfo.c (InfoObjectMethodTypeCmd)
	(InfoClassMethodTypeCmd): Added introspection of method types so that
	it is possible to find this info out without using errors.
	* generic/tclOOMethod.c (procMethodType): Now that introspection can
	reveal the name of method types, regularize the name of normal methods
	to be the name of the definition type used to create them.

2010-03-05  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOO.h, generic/tclOOInt.h: [Patch 2961556]: Change TclOO
	to use the same style of function typedefs as Tcl, as this is about
	the last chance to get this right.

	***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
	Source code that uses function typedefs from TclOO will need to update
	variables and argument definitions so that pointers to the function
	values are used instead. Binary compatibility is not affected.

2010-03-04  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOO.c (ObjectRenamedTrace): [Bug 2962664]: Add special
	handling so that when the class of classes is deleted, so is the class
	of objects. Immediately.

	* generic/tclOOInt.h (ROOT_CLASS): Add new flag for specially marking
	the root class. Simpler and more robust than the previous technique.

2010-02-02  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOO.c (AllocObject, MyDeleted): A slightly faster way to
	handle the deletion of [my] is with a standard delete callback. This
	is because it doesn't require an additional memory allocation during
	object creation.

	* generic/tclOOBasic.c (TclOO_Object_Destroy): [Bug 2944404]: Do not
	crash when a destructor deletes the object that is executing that
	destructor.

2010-01-28  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOOBasic.c (TclOO_Object_Destroy): Move the execution of
	destructors to a point where they can produce an error. This will not
	work for all destructors, but it does mean that more failing calls of
	them will be caught.
	* generic/tclOO.c (AllocObject, MyDeletedTrace, ObjectRenamedTrace):
	(ObjectNamespaceDeleted): Stop various ways of getting at commands
	with dangling pointers to the object. Also increases the reliability
	of calling of destructors (though most destructors won't benefit; when
	an object is deleted namespace-first, its destructors are not run in a
	nice state as the namespace is partially gone).

2009-11-27  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* doc/Class.3, doc/Method.3: [Patch 2903921]: Small spelling fixes
	from Larry Virden.

	BUMP VERSION TO 0.6.2. Too many people need accumulated small versions
	and bugfixes, so the version-bump removes confusion.

	* generic/tclOOBasic.c (TclOO_Object_LinkVar): [Bug 2903811]: Remove
	unneeded restrictions on who can usefully call this method.

2009-11-24  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOO.c (Tcl_NewObjectInstance): [Bug 2903011]: Make it an
	error to destroy an object in a constructor, and also make sure that
	an object is not deleted twice in the error case.

2009-11-02  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* doc/object.n (DESCRIPTION): Substantive revision to make it clearer
	what the fundamental semantics of an object actually are.

2009-10-22  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOOBasic.c (TclOO_Object_VarName): [Bug 2883857]: Allow
	the passing of array element names through this method.

2009-07-24  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* doc/self.n (self class): [Bug 2704302]: Add some text to make it
	clearer how to get the name of the current object's class.

2009-07-19  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOO.decls, generic/tclOO.c (Tcl_GetObjectName): Expose a
	function for efficiently returning the current name of an object.

2009-06-25  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* tests/oo.test: [Bug 2811598]: Improve fragile tests.

2009-06-08  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* doc/copy.n: Fix error in example spotted by Venkat Iyer.

2009-05-145 Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOOInfo.c (InfoObjectNsCmd): Added introspection mechanism
	for finding out what an object's namespace is. Experience suggests
	that it is just too useful to be able to do without it.

2009-05-05  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOO.c (InitFoundation, AllocObject, AllocClass):
	* generic/tclOODefineCmds.c (InitDefineContext): Make sure that when
	support namespaces are deleted, nothing bad can subsequently happen.
	Issue spotted by Don Porter.

2009-04-11  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOOMethod.c (InvokeForwardMethod): Clarify the resolution
	behaviour of the name of the command that is forwarded to: it's now
	resolved using the object's namespace as context, which is much more
	useful than the previous (somewhat random) behaviour of using the
	caller's current namespace. Alas, this takes a substantive performance
	hit for forwards to commands that are not fully qualified, but that is
	unavoidable due to the lack of certain internal APIs in Tcl 8.5.

2009-03-24  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOOBasic.c (TclOOSelfObjCmd): [Bug 2704302]: Make 'self
	class' better defined in the context of objects that change class.

2009-02-12  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOODefineCmds.c (TclOOGetDefineCmdContext): Use the
	correct field in the Interp structure for retrieving the frame to get
	the context object so that people can extend [oo::define] without deep
	shenanigans. Bug found by Federico Ferri.

2009-01-29  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOODecls.h (Tcl_OOInitStubs): [Bug 2537839]: Make the
	declaration of this macro work correctly in the non-stub case.

2009-01-27  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOODefineCmds.c (Tcl_ClassSetConstructor):
	[Bug 2531577]: Ensure that caches of constructor chains are cleared
	when the constructor is changed.

2009-01-06  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOOInfo.c (InfoObjectMethodsCmd,InfoClassMethodsCmd): Only
	delete pointers that were actually allocated! [Bug 2489836]

	* generic/tclOO.c (Tcl_NewObjectInstance): Perform search for existing
	commands in right context. [Bug 2481109]

2008-11-01  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@donal-k-fellowss-macbook-pro.local>

	* generic/tclOOBasic.c (TclOONRUpcatch): Reworked the code that does
	* generic/tclOO.c (InitFoundation):	 class constructor handling so
	that it is more robust and runs the constructor call in the context of
	the caller of the class's constructor method. Needed because the
	previously used code did not work at all after applying the fix below;
	no Tcl existing command could reliably do what was needed any more.

	* generic/tclOODefineCmds.c (GetClassInOuterContext): Rework and
	factor out the code to resolve class names in definitions so that
	classes are resolved from the perspective of the caller of the
	[oo::define] command, rather than from the oo::define namespace! This
	makes much code simpler by reducing how often fully-qualified names
	are required (previously always in practice, so no back-compat issues
	exist). [Bug 2200824]

2008-10-14  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	=== RELEASE OF TCLOO VERSION 0.6 ===

	* configure.in, README.txt, win/TclOO.rc: Bump version.
	* generic/tclOO.h (TCLOO_VERSION):

	Various minor fixes (ported from Tcl HEAD) to prepare for 0.6 release.
	* generic/tclOO.c (Tcl_ObjectContextInvokeNext): Added gracefulness in
	the face of interpreters being deleted.
	* generic/tclOO.c (InitFoundation):	Use INT2PTR/PTR2INT macros
	* generic/tclOODefineCmds.c (many):	instead of somewhat dodgy
	* generic/tclOOCall.c (TclOOGetSortedMethodList): casts.
	(TclOOGetSortedClassMethodList):
	* generic/tclOOBasic.c (TclOOSelfObjCmd): Clean up of code of [self]
	command to use names from Foundation. Don't write directly to the
	interpreter result object.
	(TclOO_Object_LinkVar): Application of the "do nothing gracefully"
	principle.
	* generic/tclOOInfo.c (various): Don't write directly to the
	interpreter result object.

	* generic/tclOOInt.h: Added macro magic to make things work with
	Objective C. [Bug 2163447]

2008-10-10  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOODefineCmds.c (TclOODefineUnexportObjCmd)
	(TclOODefineExportObjCmd): Corrected export/unexport record synthesis.
	[Bug 2155658]

2008-09-25  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOOCall.c (InitCallChain, IsStillValid):
	* tests/oo.test (oo-25.2): Revise call chain cache management so that
	it takes into account class-wide caching correctly. [Bug 2120903]

2008-09-24  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOOMethod.c (DBPRINT): Remove obsolete debugging macro.
	[Bug 2124814]

2008-09-23  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* doc/Method.3: Corrected documentation. [Patch 2082450]

2008-09-22  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* configure.in, README.txt, generic/tclOO.h, win/TclOO.rc: Bump
	version to 0.6a1.

	IMPLEMENTATION OF TIP#320.

	* generic/tclOODefineCmds.c (TclOODefineVariablesObjCmd):
	* generic/tclOOInfo.c (InfoObjectVariablesCmd, InfoClassVariablesCmd):
	* generic/tclOOMethod.c (TclOOSetupVariableResolver, etc):
	* doc/define.n, doc/ooInfo.n, benchmarks/cps.tcl:
	* tests/oo.test (oo-26.*): Allow the declaration of the common
	variables used in methods of a class or object. These are then mapped
	in using a variable resolver. This makes many class declarations much
	simpler overall, encourages good usage of variable names, and also
	boosts speed a bit.

	* generic/tclOOMethod.c (TclOOGetMethodBody): Factor out the code to
	get the body of a procedure-like method. Reduces the amount of "poking
	inside the abstraction" that is done by the introspection code.

2008-08-29  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOO.c (ObjectRenamedTrace): Backport of corrected handling
	of detection of when it is appropriate to run destructors.

2008-08-12  Jeff Hobbs  <jeffh@ActiveState.com>

	* generic/tclOOInfo.c (InfoObjectDefnCmd, InfoObjectMixinsCmd):
	fix # args displayed. [Bug 2048676]

2008-07-02  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* configure.in: Bump version number to 0.5.1.

	* aclocal.m4 (TEAX_SUBST_RESOURCE): Stop trying to build the resource
	descriptor in when using the VC toolchain for now; it seems to be
	causing problems with the versions built for the teapot.

2008-06-29  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* README.txt: Update to be more relevant to this distribution.
	* many files: Fix copyrights.

	* doc/object.n (EXAMPLES): Fix incorrect usage of oo::define to be
	done with oo::objdefine instead. [Bug 2004480]

2008-06-26  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	=== RELEASE OF TCLOO VERSION 0.5 ===

	* configure.in, generic/tclOO.h, tests/oo.test, win/TclOO.rc: Update
	version numbers for 0.5 release. This version constitutes the point
	where the merge to Tcl 8.6a0 (after TIP#257) was finalized;
	intermediate changes from 0.4 are corrected issues discovered during
	the merge and immediate wider-scale testing.

	* Makefile.in (genstubs):			 Change the stub table
	* generic/tclOOStubLib.c (TclOOInitializeStubs): generation to use the
	* generic/tclOO.c (Tcloo_Init):			 Tcl system, not the
	* generic/tclOO.decls:				 Tile system.
	* tools/genStubs.tcl: Removed no-longer-needed file.

	*** POTENTIAL INCOMPATABILITY ***
	If you use the TclOO C API, you *must* recompile against this new
	version. The layout of the stubs table is different. Many apologies.

2008-06-19  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOO.c (Tcl_ObjectContextInvokeNext): Corrected 'next' (at
	* tests/oo.test (oo-7.8):	end of a call chain) to make it
	* doc/next.n:			consistent with the TIP. [Bug 1998244]

	* generic/tclOOCall.c (AddSimpleClassChainToCallContext): Make sure
	* tests/oo.test (oo-14.8): that class mixins are processed in the
	documented order. [Bug 1998221]

2008-06-09  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOOCall.c (TclOOGetSortedMethodList): Plug memory leak
	that occurred when all methods were hidden. [Bug 1987817]

2008-06-02  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOO.c (ReleaseClassContents): Tidy up a bit by hiding more
	of the details of how lists work; they're not interesting, but they
	were verbose. No longer...

	* generic/tclOO.c (ReleaseClassContents): Fix reference counting
	problem identified by Keven Kenny through use of valgrind, which was
	caused by failing to protect the Object as well as the Class (attached
	to it) of a subclass being deleted and hence getting a freed-memory
	read when attempting to delete the class command. [Bug 1981001]

2008-06-01  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOOMethod.c (Tcl_NewMethod): Fix wrong initialization of
	reference counts when changing a method that is currently in use.
	Thanks to Kevin Kenny for spotting. [Bug 1981001]

2008-05-31  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOO.c (InitFoundation): Correct reference counting for
	strings used when creating the constructor for classes.
	* generic/tclOOMethod.c (TclOODelMethodRef): Correct fencepost error
	in reference counting of method implementation structures.
	* tests/oo.test (oo-0.5): Added a test to detect a memory leak problem
	relating to disposal of the core object system.

2008-05-30  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	=== RELEASE OF TCLOO VERSION 0.4 ===

	* configure.in, generic/tclOO.h, tests/oo.test, win/TclOO.rc: Update
	version numbers for 0.4 release. This version constitutes the point
	where a merge to Tcl 8.6a0 (after TIP#257) was carried out.

2008-05-29  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOOCall.c (TclOOGetSortedClassMethodList):
	* generic/tclOOInfo.c (InfoObjectMethodsCmd, InfoClassMethodsCmd):
	* tests/oo.test, doc/ooInfo.n: Corrected, simplified and systematized
	the code to introspect the list of methods supported by an object or
	class. Now, -all checks (super)classes and -private gets what is
	accepted by [my].

2008-05-28  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* tests/oo.test (oo-16.4): Deepen this test to make it clearer what
	the difference between a class and a metaclass is.
	(initInterpreter): Factor out the code to set up a sub-interpreter for
	loading TclOO, so that the tests work when run with TclOO not loaded
	from the current directory.

2008-05-26  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOO.c (InitFoundation): Make the counter that gives each
	object a unique serial number be a thread-local so that if a method
	chain reference in a Tcl_Obj internal representation crosses an
	interpreter boundary, it won't cause problems if it happens to
	coincide. Performance cost is almost nil (one extra pointer needs to
	be dereferenced during object creation, plus a bit more per-interp
	cost to initialize access to the thread-specific data).

2008-05-25  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOOCall.c (TclOOGetCallContext): Cache call chains at the
	class level when possible. This should speed up the case where an
	object is a "typical" member of the class quite a bit by not requiring
	a rebuild of the call chain for each instance. Will do quite a bit to
	reduce the memory consumption (fewer hash tables!) at a cost of some
	comparisons being marginally slower.

2008-05-24  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOOMethod.c (PushMethodCallFrame): Reduce number of
	different stack frame flags used. Just use two now, one to indicate
	that this is a method and one to indicate that this is a definition
	context.

	* configure.in: Bump version to pre-0.4.

	* generic/tclOOBasic.c: Factor out the implementations of commands and
	methods. Makes it easier to see which parts are script-level API.

	* generic/tclOO.c: Clean up responsibilities between InitFoundation
	and Tcloo_Init.

2008-05-23  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOO.c and others: Removed use of Tcl_Preserve for
	structure lifetime management and replaced with a reference counting
	scheme instead, for a small but consistent speed boost on all method
	calls and especially object destruction.

2008-05-22  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	=== RELEASE OF TCLOO VERSION 0.3 ===

	* configure.in, generic/tclOO.h, tests/oo.test, win/TclOO.rc: Update
	version numbers for 0.3 release.

2008-05-21  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOO.c (TclOOObjectCmdCore): Turn off caching in the
	primary case that causes problems when a method name mapper is
	installed. API will need rethinking, but it's very complex to handle
	efficiently. [Bug 1895546]

	* generic/tclOO.c (AllocObject): Directly allocate structures relating
	to the object's [my] command; we know that's a fresh namespace so the
	extra checks performed by Tcl_CreateObjCommand are pure overhead.
	(Tcl_NewObjectInstance): Remove bottlenecks relating to command
	renaming; using Tcl_FindCommand for the safety check is much faster!

	* generic/tclOODefineCmds.c (FindCommand): Factor out the code to do
	lookup of commands with abbreviations in the case where the definition
	command is not given a script.

2008-05-20  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOODefineCmds.c (TclOOUnknownDefinition): Added an unknown
	handler to the oo::define and oo::objdefine commands internal
	namespace processing so that you can use unique prefixes. Addresses
	[Bug 1962026] on a practical level (though not aesthetically).

	* generic/tclOOInt.h (Object): Put a reference to the object system
	foundation into the object structure so that fewer hash table lookups
	are required during the creation of objects and the invokation of
	methods upon objects.

2008-05-18  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOO.c (TclOOInvokeObject): Strip out one of the context
	caches (no longer needed because the key differences between public
	and private contexts are no longer cached anyway) and rename to better
	reflect the true nature.
	* generic/tclOOCall.c (TclOOGetCallContext): Revise flag handling to
	take account of the fact that public and private call chains are now
	cached together.

	* generic/tclOO.c, generic/tclOOMethod.c: Strip out overhead from the
	call path for the basic predefined methods.

2008-05-17  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOO.c (Tcloo_SafeInit): Defined this so that TclOO is
	loadable in safe interpreters; nothing it does is unsafe as it does
	not manipulate system resources.

	* generic/tclOODefineCmds.c (TclOODefineExportObjCmd)
	(TclOODefineUnexportObjCmd): Only invalidate method chains when the
	export status of a method is actually changed.

2008-05-16  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOOCall.c (TclOOInvokeContext): Relocate the special
	handling of the count of arguments to here from multiple other
	locations in the source code. It should only be special at the very
	first step in the call chain; after that, normal [next] processing
	should occur. [Bug 1965063]

2008-05-15  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOO.c (Tcl_GetObjectFromObj): Make sure that [namespace
	import] doesn't fool the code to determine if a command is an object.
	[Bug 1963130]

2008-05-13  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOOCall.c (TclOOGetCallContext, etc.): Rework the context
	management code so that call contexts are split into two parts: a part
	that is static over the lifetime of the context and which can be
	cached and shared between calls (allocated with ckalloc) and a part
	that varies during a call, which isn't shared or cached (and which is
	allocated with TclStackAlloc). This will make recursive calls to an
	object's methods *much* more efficient. No public API affected.

	*** POTENTIAL INCOMPATABILITY ***
	If you used the internal API and poked inside the call context, you
	will minimally need to recompile. Probably rewrite too; many fields
	have moved inwards into the shared part. Note that this part of the
	code is subject to change in the future, e.g. when class-level caches
	are created...

2008-05-12  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOO.c (ObjectNamespaceDeleted): Unstitch class from
	mixed in class correctly. [Bug 1905797]

	* generic/tclOOCall.c (TclOOGetCallContext): Get the creation epoch of
	the object referred to in a context and store that separately in the
	context so that we can safely find out whether a cached context refers
	to a deleted object without needing to read inside that object! This
	clears a FreeMemoryRead identified in [Bug 1959637]; might clear that
	bug in its entirety too, if it turns out to be a FMR fundamentally,
	which would also explain its heisenbug-ness.

2008-05-11  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOOCall.c (TclOOGetCallContext): Increase the amount of
	safety armouring on the cache contents reuse conditions. Hopefully (!)
	this will fix [Bug 1959637]

	* generic/tclOOInt.h (Class,Object): Tune down memory consumption by
	removing the pre-computed class hierarchy (useless because it was
	wrong) and changing the context caches to be allocated on the fly (as
	many objects won't need both of them).

	* generic/tclOOCall.c (AddSimpleClassChainToCallContext): Move mixin
	processing to here so that processing mixins of mixins works. [Bug
	1960703] Also enable mixin processing of constructors and destructors;
	these are sensible given that class-level mixins are supported.

	* generic/tclOODefineCmds.c (TclOODefineDeleteMethodObjCmd): Move the
	delete-a-method functionality into a new command, making the behaviour
	of the 'method' subcommand less horrible. [FRQ 1959483]
	(TclOODefineRenameMethodObjCmd, RenameDeleteMethod): Add a new command
	to allow methods to be renamed. Factor out the large amount of common
	code with the code to delete methods.

	*** POTENTIAL INCOMPATABILITY ***
	If you were relying on using 'oo::define method' to remove methods.

	* generic/tclOOMethod.c (InvokeProcedureMethod): Ensure that method
	implementations do not vanish from underneath our feet. Prevents some
	crashes found in the test suite when changing some things.

2008-05-08  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* configure.in:			   Bump version to pre-0.3 now that
	* generic/tclOO.h (TCLOO_VERSION): there's been an API change.

	* generic/tclOODefineCmds.c (TclOOObjDefObjCmd): Significant revision
	* generic/tclOO.c (InitFoundation, Tcloo_Init):	 that splits the
	* doc/define.n:					 oo::define machinery
	into two pieces, creating oo::objdefine for configuring objects and
	leaving oo::define for just classes. Gets rid of the nasty "self."
	prefixes. Many thanks to Don Porter for the suggestion. [FRQ 1959486]

	*** POTENTIAL INCOMPATABILITY ***
	If you were configuring objects (instead of just classes) this change
	will definitely affect you.

	* generic/tclOO.c (ObjectLinkVar): Simplify this method back so that
	it reflects what is documented. The extended version was never nice to
	use, and was somewhat surprising in edge cases. [Bug 1959457]

2008-04-30  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOOMethod.c (PushMethodCallFrame): Only recompile a method
	body when necessary, rather than over eagerly. This version is
	possibly a bit the other way; can tune later. [Bug 1945769]

2008-04-14  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* doc/class.n: Fix typo, reported by Corrado Ficicchia.

2008-04-08  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	=== RELEASE OF TCLOO VERSION 0.2 ===

	* configure.in, generic/tclOO.h, win/TclOO.rc: Update version number
	to release.

2008-04-04  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>

	* generic/tclOO.decls, generic/*.c, doc/Method.3: Renamed the methods
	so that confusion is reduced by eliminating the term "class method"
	and changing "object method" to "instance method". [Bug 1863645]

	***POTENTIAL INCOMPATABILITY*** for anyone using the C API.

2008-04-02  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>

	* tests/oo.test: Fixed crashing test by doing a version that works and
	marking the failing version as a known bug.

	* configure.in, config.h.in, generic/*.c: Changed to use autoheader
	rather than a slew of configure parameters.

2008-03-26  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* doc/*: Fixes for documentation bugs found when using Tcl's HTML
	scraper on the docs. Includes defining keywords for all pages.

2008-02-01  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOOCall.c: Adjust function declarations (to enable better
	optimization) and ensure that the declarations and function defs match
	correctly (VC is picky about this).

2008-02-01  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>

	* aclocal.m4: Adjusted to get quoting right.

2008-01-30  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>

	* aclocal.m4: Ugh, msys make does / munging! [Bug 1881216] again.

2008-01-29  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>

	* aclocal.m4 (TEAX_VC_MANIFEST): Added some code to switch between the
	gcc and vc ways of writing some flags.
	* configure.in: Move TEAX_SUBST_RESOURCE after TEA_CONFIG_CFLAGS so
	that the detection of the resource compiler is correct. [Bug 1881216]

2008-01-21  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>

	* configure.in, aclocal.m4, Makefile.in: Clean up the configure code
	so that it's possible to read the configure script again. Factor out
	ensuing macro definitions into aclocal.m4 for clarity.

2008-01-18  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>

	* configure.in, Makefile.in: Add code to make the resource compiler
	adapt to being used with the VC toolchain. Also adds some support for
	manifest generation (needed for Vista?) [Bug 1870456, part 3] (kbk)

2008-01-16  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>

	* generic/tclOOCall.c, tclOOInt.h: Add and fix types to make things
	quieter with VC2k5SP1. [Bug 1870456, part 2] (kbk)

	* generic/tclOODefineCmds.c (TclOOObjectSetFilters)
	(TclOOClassSetFilters, TclOOObjectSetMixins, TclOOClassSetMixins):
	Factor out the code to manage lists of filters and mixins so that they
	can be manipulated from the C level more easily. Now part of the
	"internal" API.

	* generic/tclOODefineCmds.c (BumpGlobalEpoch): Factor out the code to
	handle incrementing of the global epoch counter when a class is
	reconfigured. Allows us to put conditions on doing this that are easy
	to enforce and which should result in a performance boost in practice.

2008-01-12  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>

	* tests/oo.test (oo-23.1): Added new test that shows how to do
	Self-like object creation through prototypical objects. [Bug 1865054]

	* generic/tclOODefineCmds.c (TclOODefineMixinObjCmd): Stop classes
	from mixing in themselves as classes, which can lead to an infinite
	loop.

2008-01-09  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>

	* generic/tclOOCall.c (AddClassFiltersToCallContext): Add filters
	defined by classes mixed into classes. [Bug 1865053]

	* generic/tclOO.c (Tcl_ClassSetConstructor, Tcl_ClassSetDestructor):
	Factored out the code to install a constructor or destructor.

2008-01-06  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* configure.in:			   Bump version to pre-0.2 now that
	* generic/tclOO.h (TCLOO_VERSION): there's been an API change.

	* .../tclOO.h (Tcl_CloneProc, Tcl_MethodType, Tcl_ObjectMetadataType):
	* generic/tclOOMethod.c (CloneProcedureMethod, CloneForwardMethod):
	* generic/tclOO.c (Tcl_CopyObjectInstance, CloneObjectMethod)
	(CloneClassMethod): Redefined cloning system to allow user code to
	reject a request to create a copy of an object. Allows some objects to
	become genuinely unique, which is necessary when they contain really
	precious OS resources. [FRQ 1863642]

	***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
	For any code that used the old cloning functions.

	* generic/tclOO.h (TCLOO_VERSION): Rename of OO_VERSION.
	* generic/tclOOStubLib.c, generic/tclOODecls.h: Corrected macro usage
	so that only one #def is involved in stub usage. [Bug 1864851]

2008-01-06  Kevin B. Kenny  <kennykb@acm.org>

	* generic/tclOODecls.h: Removed superfluous '\r' characters that
	caused syntax errors when compiling with mingw.

2008-01-05  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOO.c (TclOOInvokeObject):		    New functions to
	* generic/tclOOMethod.c (TclOONewProcClassMethodEx) make itcl-ng
	(TclOONewProcInstanceMethodEx):			    integration much
	simpler. Adapted from [Patch 1791190], but with internal names as they
	expose concepts which do not square completely with the way TclOO
	officially "works".

2008-01-03  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOO.decls: Moved TclOONewForwardClassMethod and
	TclOONewForwardMethod to private stub API from pure-internal. [FRQ
	1842600]

	* generic/tclOO.c (TclOOObjectCmdCore): Tweaked the signature of
	the itcl-ng method remapping callback. [Patch 1791215]
	(Tcl_ObjectSetMethodNameMapper): Added getter and setter functions
	for the method remapping callback. [FRQ 1842588]

2007-12-30  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOOStubLib.c (TclOOInitializeStubs): Added more error
	checking. [Bug 1847313]

	* generic/tclOODecls.h: Added changes forgotten when adapting from the
	Tile sources. [Bug 1847318]

	* configure.in: Corrected which headers are installed by default and
	* Makefile.in:	factored out the private headers which are only
	installed if specially requested (use 'make install-private-headers'
	to get them). [Bug 1847311]

	* win/TclOO.rc: Relocated from top-level directory as it is only
	relevant to Windows builds. [Bug 1816147]

2007-12-02  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOOInfo.c (TclOOInitInfo): Updating the ensemble map now
	requires a non-NULL interp argument. [Bug 1841743]

2007-11-09  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>

	* generic/tclOOCall.c (TclOOGetSortedMethodList): Ensure that export
	cannot cause the wrong list of methods to be printed in error
	messages. [Bug 1824958]

2007-10-18  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>

	* generic/tclOO.h (OO_VERSION): Forgot to update this when bumping the
	version number.

2007-10-12  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>

	* generic/tclOO.c (TclOOObjectCmdCore): Added method name remapping
	support for Arnulf. [Patch 1791215]

2007-10-11  Daniel Steffen  <das@users.sourceforge.net>

	* Makefile.in:	RANLIB static libraries during install; add install
	* configure.in:	target dependencies; rename a few makefile vars to make
	overriding them the same as in TEA; distclean tclooConfig.sh; change
	stub lib install location from libdir to TEA standard pkglibdir.
	* configure:	autoconf-2.59

2007-10-03  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>

	* tclooConfig.sh.in, configure.in: Made more robust when configure is
	called with a relative directory name.

2007-10-01  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@man.ac.uk>

	=== RELEASE OF TCLOO VERSION 0.1 ===

	* Makefile.in (TCL_VERSION_REQ): Updated to require the correct
	public version instead of a private version that was never released.
	(dist): Updated so that manual pages are run through 'soelim'.

2007-10-01  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* README.txt: Added a readme as part of preparation for release.

	* configure.in (TCLOO_*_SPEC): Added more bits to make the config
	descriptor file much more likely to be relevant.

2007-09-28  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>

	* tclooConfig.sh.in: Added file that describes "useful" configuration
	about TclOO so that people can build against it.

2007-09-03  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOO.c (InitFoundation): Divide the initialization code
	into two more manageable pieces.

2007-08-21  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOOCall.c (AddMethodToCallChain): Prevent memory overruns
	that didn't really matter (except in certain very rare cases). Found
	by Arnulf Wiedemann and valgrind.

2007-08-20  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOOMethod.c (PushMethodCallFrame): Fix handling of things
	when the magical itcl mode takes over; random crashes really aren't
	much fun. Found by Arnulf Wiedemann.

2007-08-15  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>

	* generic/tclOOMethod.c (InvokeProcedureMethod): Plug a memory leak
	found by Arnulf Wiedemann.

2007-08-13  Donal K. Fellows  <donal.k.fellows@manchester.ac.uk>

	* generic/tclOOInfo.c (TclOOInitInfo): Stop a potential memory leak in
	the case when someone modifies the info ensemble before us.

2007-08-08  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOO.c (TclOOIsReachable): The is-a relationship should
	follow the class mixin hierarchy too, and this function is a
	reasonable addition to the exported API (currently private).

2007-08-07  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOO.c (TclOOObjectCmdCore): Renamed from ObjectCmd and
	exposed in stubs table. Added mechanism to allow callers to start the
	chain part way through, though this is not used in the TclOO core.

2007-08-06  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOO.decls (TclOONewProcMethod, TclOONewProcClassMethod):
	Added to internal stubs table.

	* generic/tclOOMethod.c (InvokeProcedureMethod, PushMethodCallFrame):
	Reorganize so that frame management is clearer and better supportive
	of Arnulf's requirements. This involves added a clientData pointer,
	moving a callback, and breaking out things so that less is held on the
	C stack, which is already fairly full...

2007-08-04  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOO.c (Tcl_InvokeNextContext): Added function to allow
	third party method implementations to traverse the call chain.

2007-08-03  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOOCall.c: Use 'inline' where possible.

	* generic/tclOOInfo.c (InfoObjectVarsCmd): Rewrote following Miguel
	Sofer's incompatible changes in the Tcl core's implementation of
	variables.

	* generic/tclOOMethod.c (TclOONewProcMethod)
	(TclOONewProcClassMethod, TclOOMakeProcObjectMethod)
	(TclOOMakeProcClassMethod): Split apart the code to create new
	procedure-like methods so that third-party code can plug into it more
	effectively, following suggestions from Arnulf Wiedemann.

2007-06-25  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOOInt.h, generic/tclOOMethod.c (InvokeProcedureMethod):
	Removed the FRAME_IS_FILTER flag; it was never queried anywhere since
	it proved more reliable to get the is-filter info from elsewhere.
	Documented the other call-frame flags.

2007-06-16  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOOMethod.c (InvokeProcedureMethod, TclOONewProcMethod)
	(TclOONewProcClassMethod, CloneProcedureMethod): Added a mechanism to
	allow control over whether a method is invoked in the namespace of the
	object that it was invoked upon (the old behaviour, and still the
	default) or the class that defined it (required for non-horrible
	support of Itcl). Not yet exposed to scripts.

	* generic/tclOO.c (Tcl_NewObjectInstance): When renaming an object
	during construction, make sure that it is not being renamed to itself.
	Thanks to Arnulf Wiedemann for spotting this.

2007-06-15  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOOCall.c (methodNameType, TclOOStashContext)
	(DupMethodNameRep, FreeMethodNameRep, TclOOGetCallContext):
	* generic/tclOO.c (AllocObject, ObjectCmd): Cache call contexts in
	* generic/tclOOInt.h: Tcl_Obj internal representations for (hopefully)
	some speedup of method invokation.

2007-06-14  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOOMethod.c (InvokeProcedureMethod):
	* tclOOInt.h: Adaptation to a change in Tcl HEAD: renumbering the
	FRAME_IS_... flag values, using the new shorter api to
	TclObjInterpProcCore.

2007-06-12  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* Makefile.in (gdb, gdbtest): Add targets for running a debugger that
	actually work on Windows.

	* generic/tclOOInfo.c (TclOOInitInfo): Plumb the introspection code
	into the Tcl core [info] command.

2007-06-11  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOO.c (ClassCreateNs): Exposed the ability to create
	* doc/class.n: objects with particular namespaces for names to scripts

	* generic/tclOO.c (Tcl_NewObjectInstance, Tcl_CopyObjectInstance):
	* doc/Class.3: Extended the C API to allow control over the naming of
	the object's namespace, exposing the change to AllocObject from
	yesterday. Not yet exposed to scripts.

	* generic/tclOOInfo.c (InfoObjectMethodsCmd): Enhanced the method
	* doc/ooInfo.n: introspection to make it easier for commands to find
	what the methods of an object are. Thanks to Mark Janssen for
	suggesting this.

2007-06-10  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOO.c (AllocObject): Started writing code to allow control
	over the name of the object's namespace generated during object
	creation. This feature is not yet exposed outside this file.

	* generic/tclOOMethod.c: Split out the method handling code into its
	own source file; it's long enough and complex enough to warrant it.

2007-06-08  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOO.c (Tcl_ObjectSetMetadata, Tcl_ClassSetMetadata): When
	deleting metadata, must delete the metadata. (Thanks to Arnulf
	Wiedemann for spotting!)

	* generic/tclOO.c (AllocClass, Tcl_NewObjectInstance): Make the class
	splicing work correctly so that the set of instances of oo::object and
	the set of subclasses of oo::class stay limited in size. Fixes the
	other part of the memory leak. [Bug 1732364]

2007-06-07  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* generic/tclOO.c (ObjectNamespaceDeleted): Try to make the code leak
	less. This doesn't seem to be a complete fix of [Bug 1732364] but is
	covering at least one case that might have been hit...

	* generic/tclOO.c (NextObjCmd): Make this behave consistently with
	documentation and what is most useful in practice.

	* generic/tclOO.c (TclOOObjectName, SelfObjCmd, ObjectRenamedTrace):
	Added code to manage a cache of the command name for the [self object]
	command. It seems that this was previously a very slow command. In so
	doing, allow simplification of a lot of code.

2007-06-06  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* Makefile.in (shell): Added target for convenience of interactive
	testing.

	* Makefile.in (benchmarks): Added some benchmarking scripts, based off
	* benchmarks/*.tcl:	    those in http://dada.perl.it/shootout/

	* doc/next.n: Substantial enhancements, including a demonstration of
	how a mixin and a filter can build a simple bolt-on method result
	memoization cache.

2007-06-05  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* Makefile.in: Added targets for building docs and distributions and
	installing documentation.

2007-06-04  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* doc/ooInfo.n: Added documentation for the introspection commands.

2007-06-03  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* doc/Method.3: The other half of the C interface, being the part
	dealing with methods.

2007-06-02  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* doc/Class.3: Started documenting the C interface.

2007-06-01  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* doc/next.n: Added documentation for [next].
	* doc/my.n: Added documentation for [my].

2007-05-31  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* doc/self.n: Added some documentation for [self].

	* generic/tclOO.c (InvokeForwardMethod, ObjectUnknown): Better fix for
	the unknown method handling.
	* doc/object.n: Document it correctly.

2007-05-30  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* doc/copy.n: Started work on documenting oo::copy.

	* generic/tclOO.c (ObjectUnknown): Fixed possible crash when unknown
	method used directly.

	* configure.in: Detect sdx during configure time, not make time.

2007-05-29  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* TclOO.rc, Makefile.in, configure.in: Horrific hacking to make the
	generated DLL have nice metadata on Windows.

	* doc/class.n: Started work on third documentation file.
	* doc/object.n: Started work on second documentation file.

2007-05-28  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* doc/define.n: Completed the list of define subcommands, but not yet
	documented what they all do. Added basic example.

2007-05-24  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* license.terms: Added, same license as Tcl/Tk.
	* doc/define.n: Started to write documentation.

2007-05-19  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* Makefile.in (kit): Rewrote to make the building of a starkit work
	for myself. Also tried to separate out things substituted by configure
	from things that are not substituted. The build now _requires_ GNU
	make to work, since it is easier to control substitution with it.

2007-05-18  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>

	* Makefile.in (kit): Added _experimental_ code to build a starkit
	distribution of the code.
	* configure.in (PLATFORM): Added code to determine what platform we
	are building for, needed for making the build of the kit work right.

	* Makefile.in (pkgIndex.tcl): Update the statement of what version

	* tests/oo.test: Convert {expand} to {*}.
	* generic/tclOOInt.h, generic/tclOO.h: Remove obsolete comments.

	* configure.in, Makefile.in: Updated to latest TEA and corrected build
	system to work on more platforms.
	* pkgIndex.tcl (removed): This file now generated automatically.

	* generic/tclOO.c (Tcloo_Init, ObjectDeletedTrace)
	(Tcl_CopyObjectInstance, ObjectCmd): Remove unused variables.

	Initial check-in as an extension.
