Refactoring of sized-integer discrimination, lots of fixes to makefiles, DMC++ workarounds, a few late additions, deprecation of a *log* of vestigial symbols.

Unless it is shown to contain any remaining issues, this should be the last beta.

============================================================================

Changes for 1.9.1 beta 41 (14th January 2006):

Changes
=======

 ~ refactored sized-integer detection:
    - The symbols
        STLSOFT_CF_8BIT_INT_EXTENDED_TYPE_IS_DISTINCT
        STLSOFT_CF_16BIT_INT_EXTENDED_TYPE_IS_DISTINCT
        STLSOFT_CF_32BIT_INT_EXTENDED_TYPE_IS_DISTINCT
      are removed. Instead use
        STLSOFT_CF_CHAR_DISTINCT_INT_TYPE
        STLSOFT_CF_SHORT_DISTINCT_INT_TYPE
        STLSOFT_CF_INT_DISTINCT_INT_TYPE
    ~ The symbols
        STLSOFT_CF_INT_DISTINCT_TYPE
        STLSOFT_CF_LONG_DISTINCT_TYPE
      are deprecated. Instead use
        STLSOFT_CF_INT_DISTINCT_INT_TYPE
        STLSOFT_CF_LONG_DISTINCT_INT_TYPE
    + The following symbols are added (and propagated through the codebase):
        STLSOFT_CF_CHAR_DISTINCT_INT_TYPE
        STLSOFT_CF_SHORT_DISTINCT_INT_TYPE
        STLSOFT_CF_INT_DISTINCT_INT_TYPE
        STLSOFT_CF_LONG_DISTINCT_INT_TYPE
        STLSOFT_CF_LONG_LONG_DISTINCT_INT_TYPE

 ~ A few last workarounds to ensure complete build/run of the
   unit-tests with DMC++

Additions:
==========

 + C compilation included in Unit-test builds

 ~ ensuring that all .h files are C-compilation compatible

 + stlsoft::limit_traits<bool> specialisation

 + stlsoft::sign_traits<long> and <unsigned long> specialisations

 + winstl::get_kernel_handle attribute shim overloads for
   winstl::event, winstl::process_mutex and winstl::semaphore

 + winstl::get_kernel_handle attribute shim overload for
   MFC types (in mfcstl/shims/attribute/get_kernel_handle.hpp)

 ~ winstl/time/format_functions.h => winstl/time/format_functions.hpp

Removals:
=========

Any ideas on this?  This is (again) Linux x86_64 gcc4.1.1

Sigh, I guess Linux 64 doesn't have asm/atomic.h.

There's a related issue I've wanted to sort for a while in the Pantheios core, and I guess this'll now prompt it.

For the moment, just try the included file. I've made a little mod, though it'll _only_ work on UNIX (I hope <g>) Please let me know how this goes.

If this works, I'll have a new Pantheios release v soon.

Cheers

Matthew

I'll have to check on this, but I think the deal isn't specific to x86_64 not having asm/atomic.h - it is probably that all modern linuxes are not going to have it.

Yes, it was always a punt on my part. It was convenient once, and has remained in there. I think I'll simply stop using it in any dependent projects - e.g. Pantheios - and work out either how to eliminate it or how to properly support it accross all (likely) architectures.

btw, did that new file enable you to compile Pantheios?
