Lots and lots of changes, many of which were intended for 1.9, but they snuck in anyway. ;-)

Details as follows:



================================================================================ 27th July 2005 : STLSoft 1.8.3 => 1.8.4
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Summary:
========

 . several new components
 . some enhancements
 . some bug fixes
 . Mac compatibility
 . most comprehensively unit-tested release yet (on Linux, Win32 and
Mac OS-X)
 . documentation still pretty woeful (but work to address this for
1.9.1 is
    already underway)
 . support for new Pantheios logging library, which I will be
releasing some
   time in the next few weeks. (Will be at http://pantheios.org/
before end of
   August 2005)

Significant changes:
====================

 STLSoft main project
 --------------------
 ~ all stlsoft::ctype_traits<> method names are changed from
isalpha() form to
    is_alpha(), to avoid #define clashes with some C standard
libraries
 ~ STLSoft forward enums macros now define a class with a to_int()
method for
    conversion of the enum to int
 ~ stlsoft::member_selector_iterator now works, which is nice.
 ~ stlsoft/meta/yesno.hpp now defines stlsoft::value_to_yesno_type
value/type
    generator class template
 ~ stlsoft::scoped_handle class template now defines close() method
 ~ stlsoft/allocator_base.hpp now defines the allocator_base adaptor
class
    template, which will be used in the forthcoming (with v1.9.1)
rewrite of
 all the allocator classes.
 ~ stlsoft::pod_vector class template now works with Visual C++ 7.1
and 8.0 (I
    finally worked out what their inscrutible template parse problem
was <g>)
 ~ rewrite of stlsoft_limit_traits.h
 ~ stlsoft::proxy_iterator class template now takes an additional
two
    (defaulted) template parameters, for reference type and pointer
type

 ACESTL
 ------
 ~ acestl::custom_event_handler class can now return the
caller-supplied
    parameter associated with an event. Also can supply them for a
set of
    event instances for a given cancelled event code.

 RangeLib
 --------
 ~ rangelib::sequence_range class template adaptor has a new
constructor that
    takes a pair of iterators of the adapted sequence

 UNIXSTL
 -------
 ~ unixstl::spin_mutex now works with Mac OS-X native atomic
constructs

 WinSTL
 ------
 ~ winstl::shell_browse now takes the starting folder (thanks to
Pablo Aguilar
    for this enhancement)
 ~ winstl::filesystem_traits class template now defines the
str_n_cat() method
 ~ winstl::basic_module_filename class template now defines the
c_str() method
 ~ winstl::basic_reg_key class template now defines the swap()
method

Thank you!!! Much nicer looking code is coming out of this...

You're most welcome.

Sorry that some of your contributions haven't made it in yet, but 1.9.1 is not too far away.

FYI: in writing Extended STL, I am gradually going through all the STLSoft libraries and properly refactoring, categorising, documenting etc. I think this will help in (i) getting rid of obsolete, or just downright bad libraries, (ii) cleaning up and removing inconsistencies (i.e. wrt the standard) and bugs, and (iii) in getting better documentation. So far I've done a lot of cleaning up of the Allocators, Algorithms and Functors/Adaptors. I think 1.9.1 betas will start in a week or two, and I look forward to your prodding me about any contributions you've made that are missing, or any other ideas for inclusion. (And some help on the docs won't hurt <g>)

Cheers

Matthew

Ok, we moved at work today to the new release...

Here's the 2 things I've found so far:

1) listbox_sequence (and I'd say all of it's kin) is still missing reference/const_reference typedefs, that are required by sequence_range.

2) c_str_ptr(*findfile_sequence::iterator) now returns a file's name, and not it's path (it used to return it's full path). Now, there's likely a very good reason for this, but for the time being it broke some code

I'll get back with more news if there are any

No problem...

Here's what I can think of at the moment:
* There's inconsistent use of int vs. ws_int_t (and others I'd guess). I've
seen it mostly in WinSTL, though its probably elsewhere also.
* There's inconsistent use of ::SendMessage vs winstl_send_message (or
something likely, don't remember exactly right now)
* I think the new C-style headers have a slight (techincal) problem with the
standard, in that they use double underscores as substitute for the scope
operator, but then double underscore names are reserved by the standard
AFAIK
* I believe some [winstl, don't know about other] sequence classes could be
refactored to remove lots of duplicate nearly identical code, this is how
I've tried to write the sequences with string/value pairs (e-mail coming in
a few hours)

* The th_*_sequence classes are the only contribution I'd say is missing

> (And some help on the docs won't hurt <g>)

You say you've been upgrading some documentation already... which is it so I can take a look?

Eeek! That shouldn't be. Let me take a look ...

... gah! Total mistake. 1.8.5 will be with you later today. :-(

Oh! I thought it was on purpose... (otherwise I would've just patched my
copy)
Well, thanks a lot then...

Oh dear. This may be one of my silliest moves yet. :$

To workaround your problem, using the ctor overload that requires a directory (using ".") is likely to work, while I fix the problem properly.

Oh, don't worry about it...
I just changed from:

c_str_ptr(*it)

to

c_str_ptr((*it).get_path())

And that seemed to work fine...

Can't do that, it's a really bad break.

Am fixing now. Expect 1.8.5 to be uploaded (and 1.8.4 to be removed) later today.
