Added a new ACE_Time_Value derived template class (Time_Value_T.h): + + template <class TIME_POLICY> class ACE_Time_Value_T + + This template class overloads 4 new virtual methods from + the ACE_Time_Value base class to provide time policy aware + time values: + to_relative_time () + to_absolute_time () + now () + duplicate () + +. Updated time policy classes to return ACE_Time_Value_T<> instantiations + for the corresponding time policy instead of 'common' time values. + +. Added new ACE_Monotonic_Time_Policy (Monotonic_Time_Policy.h). + This class provides a monotonic time source for supported + platforms (Windows and POSIX platforms providing the required + clock_gettime() time source; currently verified for Windows and + Linux) + +. Updated OS_NS_Thread to use the new time policy support in ACE_Time_Value + for (relative) time calculations and added new ACE_OS::condattr_setclock () + method. + +. Added TIME_POLICY support to ACE_Condition_Attributes to allow for + monotonic timer support for ACE_Condition. + +. Added TIME_POLICY support to ACE_Message_Queue-s, ACE_Task-s and + related classes to enable support for monotonic timers in the timed + wait methods (ACE_Condition based). See docs/ACE-monotonic-timer.html + for how to use this. + +. Added two new regression tests: + Monotonic_Task_Test + Monotonic_Message_Queue_Test + and updated the Bug_4055_Regression_Test to a fixed state. + +USER VISIBLE CHANGES BETWEEN ACE-6.1.2 and ACE-6.1.3 +==================================================== + +. Added support for Oracle Solaris Studio 12 Update 3 (SunCC 5.12) + +. Added new XML_Utils library which comes from DAnCE but is now also used + by OpenDDS + +USER VISIBLE CHANGES BETWEEN ACE-6.1.1 and ACE-6.1.2 +==================================================== + +. Added compile time support for Windows CE 7, no runtime testing has + been performed + +. The High Res Timer global scale factor on Windows is now 64bit, see bugzilla + 3703 for the background of this. If you use the gsf in your code, use the + new ACE_High_Res_Timer::global_scale_factor_type type trait to not get + any conversion warnings + +. Removed Tandem NSK v2/v3 support which resulted in cleanup throughout all + code. The emulations for ACE_INT64/ACE_UINT64 have been removed because no + platform is using them anymore + +USER VISIBLE CHANGES BETWEEN ACE-6.1.0 and ACE-6.1.1 +==================================================== + +. Minor bug fixes + +USER VISIBLE CHANGES BETWEEN ACE-6.0.8 and ACE-6.1.0 +==================================================== + +. Added compilation support for VxWorks 6.9, no runtime + testing has been performed + +. Added ACE Run-length encoding compressor + +. Fixed several Coverity reported issues + +USER VISIBLE CHANGES BETWEEN ACE-6.0.7 and ACE-6.0.8 +==================================================== + +. Added support for MPC's new feature that creates dependency files for IDL + files when generating '-type gnuace' projects. Turned off by default, it + can be enabled in a features file or on the command line with + '-features ace_idl_dependencies=1'. + +USER VISIBLE CHANGES BETWEEN ACE-6.0.6 and ACE-6.0.7 +==================================================== + +. Added a new method to ACE_Atomic_Op<LOCK, TYPE>, TYPE exchange (TYPE newval) + which does an atomic exchange of the new value with ACE_Atomic_Op's value + and returns the old value. The tests/Atomic_Op_Test.cpp test program has a + test case that exemplifies its usage; see the Exchange_Tester class. + +. Added a new feature to timer queue templates classes: TIME_POLICY. + This feature is specified through a new template argument and provides the + timer queue with a policy for a timer (time of day) value. This feature is + intended to replace (in time) the gettimeofday setter method which has been + marked @deprecated. For now backwards compatibility is guaranteed. + The TIME_POLICY feature provides flexibility with regards to providing a timer + source to the timer queues as well as the possibility for a fully optimized + calling path. + A number of standard time policies are provided in ace/Time_Policy.h. + The tests/Timer_Queue_Test.cpp has been updated to reflect and exemplify these + changes. + +. Added the TIME_POLICY feature also to countdown time class which has now + become a template (ace/Countdown_Time_T.h) + +. Initial support for Microsoft Visual Studio 11 + +. Increased overall code quality by using Coverity and Klocwork + +USER VISIBLE CHANGES BETWEEN ACE-6.0.5 and ACE-6.0.6 +==================================================== + +. Removed autoconf support, only traditional way of + compilation is shipped from now + +. Add support for RHEL 6.1 64bit + +USER VISIBLE CHANGES BETWEEN ACE-6.0.4 and ACE-6.0.5 +==================================================== + +. Improved support for Android and added the ability to run all ACE/TAO tests + automatically using the Android emulator + +USER VISIBLE CHANGES BETWEEN ACE-6.0.3 and ACE-6.0.4 +==================================================== + +. Removed support for C++ Builder + +. Added support for building with the Android NDK, at least r5c. This + is currently available for linux host platforms. + +USER VISIBLE CHANGES BETWEEN ACE-6.0.2 and ACE-6.0.3 +==================================================== + +. Added support for GCC 4.6 + +USER VISIBLE CHANGES BETWEEN ACE-6.0.1 and ACE-6.0.2 +==================================================== + +. The ACE_wrappers/ace/OS.h file has been restored in order to ensure + build-time compatibility with older ACE versions. Its use will still + cause your build to incur more processing time than using the needed + ace/OS_NS_*.h files; however, you should be able to build OS.h-including + code without needing to replace it with OS_NS_* includes. + +. Improved and simplified QNX support + +. Changed rand_r() and getpwnam_r() to conform Single UNIX Specification. + +. Fixed performance of send_v on windows when individual iovec elements + are particularly large. + +USER VISIBLE CHANGES BETWEEN ACE-6.0.0 and ACE-6.0.1 +==================================================== + +. Added support for MinGW with GCC 4.5 + +USER VISIBLE CHANGES BETWEEN ACE-5.8.3 and ACE-6.0.0 +==================================================== + +. Changed the string format produced by ACE::timestamp() from the ctime + format "Day Mon dd hh:mm:ss yyyy" to ISO-8601 yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss.mmmmmm. + This makes the time easier to collate and removes any dependence on locale. + The change affects the output from ACE_Log_Msg's %D format and both VERBOSE + and VERBOSE_LIGHT timestamps in addition to application-made direct calls + to ACE::timestamp(). + +. Removed GCC < 3 support + +. A new build system hook was added for users to include site-private rules + in a build. If a file named "rules.private.GNU" in located in any build + directory it will get included from + $ACE_ROOT/include/makeinclude/rules.local.GNU. The "private_rules_file" + make variable can be set to override the name and/or location of the file. + If no such rules file exists, its absence is silently ignored. This + facility can be used, for example, to integrate a specialized code checker + into the build process. + USER VISIBLE CHANGES BETWEEN ACE-5.8.2 and ACE-5.8.3 ==================================================== |
