This is a log of changes that ncurses has gone through since Zeyd started
Changes through 1.9.9e did not credit all contributions;
it is not possible to add this information.
+20080308
+ + start modifying test/rain.c for threading demo.
+ + modify test/ncurses.c to make 'f' test accept the f/F/b/F/</> toggles
+ that the 'F' accepts.
+ + modify test/worm.c to show trail in reverse-video when other threads
+ are working concurrently.
+ + fix a deadlock from improper nesting of mutexes for windowlist and
+ window.
+
+20080301
+ + fixes from 20080223 resolved issue with mutexes; change to use
+ recursive mutexes to fix memory leak in delwin() as called from
+ _nc_free_and_exit().
+
+20080223
+ + fix a size-difference in _nc_globals which caused hanging of mutex
+ lock/unlock when termlib was built separately.
+
+20080216
+ + avoid using nanosleep() in threaded configuration since that often
+ is implemented to suspend the entire process.
+
+20080209
+ + update test programs to build/work with various UNIX curses for
+ comparisons. This was to reinvestigate statement in X/Open curses
+ that insnstr and winsnstr perform wrapping. None of the Unix-branded
+ implementations do this, as noted in manpage (cf: 20040228).
+
20080203
+ modify _nc_setupscreen() to set the legacy-coding value the same
for both narrow/wide models. It had been set only for wide model,
projects / ncurses.git / blobdiff
