win32-api 1.4.1 → 1.4.2

data/CHANGES

@@ -1,102 +1,107 @@
-= 1.4.1 - 29-May-2009
-* Callback handling improvements.
-* Updated the gemspec description.
-
-= 1.4.0 - 19-Feb-2009
-* Now compatible with Ruby 1.9.x.
-* In what will go down as, "It seemed like a good idea at the time", I have
-  removed the feature where W (wide) character functions were used first if
-  your $KCODE environment variable was set to "UTF8". It caused too many
-  headaches in practice, especially amongst Rails users. You must now always
-  explicitly specify 'W' in the constructor if that's what you want.
-* Fixed RF bug #23944 - bad error message for MSVCRT functions that failed
-  to load properly.
-
-= 1.3.0 - 1-Jan-2009
-* Fixed RubyForge bug #23395, which was caused by inadvertently modifying
-  a variable within a loop. This caused callbacks to fail in certain
-  situations.
-* Added the Win32::API::LoadLibraryError and Win32::API::PrototypeError classes
-  to provide more fine grained handling of possible error conditions in the
-  constructor. These are both subclasses of Win32::API::Error.
-* Removed the Win32::API::CallbackError class.
-* Changed the upper limit on prototypes from 16 to 20. It turns out that
-  there are actually Windows functions with more than 16 prototypes.
-* Refactored a high iteration test so that it counts as only one test
-  instead of 1000.
-
-= 1.2.2 - 27-Nov-2008
-* Fixed bug in the error message for illegal prototypes and illegal return
-  types where the character in question would come out as empty or garbage.
-* Passing a bad return type to Win32::API::Callback now raises an error.
-* Updated the error message for illegal return types to say, "Illegal return
-  type" instead of "Illegal prototype" as it did previously.
-* The error message for a bad function name passed to Win32::API.new now
-  matches JRuby's FFI error message.
-* Improved the handling of msvcrt functions with regards to skipping 'A'
-  and 'W' checks. Previously it was checking against the literal string
-  'msvcrt'. Now it checks against any string that starts with 'msvcr'.
-* Added test-unit 2.x as a prerequisite.
-* Added tests for the Win32::API::Callback#address method.
-* Added tests to all Win32::API classes that explicitly check error messages.
-
-= 1.2.1 - 14-Nov-2008
-* Fixed and updated callback handling.
-* Fixed wide string return handling for pointers and strings.
-* Added the Win32::API::Callback#address instance method.
-* All errors are now in English instead of your native language, because
-  that's what Ruby itself does.
-
-= 1.2.0 - 22-Jul-2008
-* Added support for the 'S' (string) prototype and return type. It can be
-  used instead of 'P' (pointer) for const char*.
-* Some internal refactoring. The attempts to load ANSI and/or Wide character
-  versions of functions are skipped for MSVCRT functions, since they do not
-  exist. This eliminates some unnecessary LoadLibrary() calls.
-* Added a couple of gem building Rake tasks.
-* Added a few more tests.
-
-= 1.1.0 - 12-Jun-2008
-* Added the Windows::API::Function class. This is a subclass of Win32::API
-  meant only for use with raw function pointers.
-* Some documentation updates in the source and README files.
-
-= 1.0.6 - 18-Apr-2008
-* Added the effective_function_name method. This allows you to see what the
-  actual function name is that was defined, e.g. GetUserNameA vs GetUserNameW.
-* Replaced an instance of _tcscmp with strcmp. The case in question was always
-  going to be ASCII.
-* Cleaned up some -W3 warnings.
-* Added the build_manifest task to the Rakefile, which is automatically run if
-  you're using a version of Ruby built with VC++ 8 or later. This builds a
-  ruby.exe.manifest file (if it doesn't already exist).
-
-= 1.0.5 - 20-Nov-2007
-* The API.new method now defaults to "W" (wide character functions) before "A"
-  (ANSI functions) if the $KCODE global variable is set to 'u' (UTF8).
-* Minor improvements to the Rakefile.
-
-= 1.0.4 - 26-Oct-2007
-* Fixed a bug where methods that returned pointers ('P') could choke if the
-  resulting pointer was 0 or NULL. In this case, nil is now returned instead.
-* Tweak to the extconf.rb file that helps the gem build it from source
-  properly.
-
-= 1.0.3 - 28-Sep-2007
-* Fixed a subtle but dangerous copy-on-write bug in the API#call method.
-
-= 1.0.2 - 28-Sep-2007
-* Fixed a bug in an internal struct member that was causing segfaults. Thanks
-  go to Lars Olsson for the spot.
-* Fixed the 'install' task in the Rakefile. This only affected native builds,
-  not the prebuilt binary.
-* Added a few more tests.
-
-= 1.0.1 - 27-Sep-2007
-* Functions declared with a void prototype no longer require an explicit nil
-  argument to fulfill the arity requirement. You can still call them with an
-  explicit nil if you wish, however.
-* Fixed the gemspec for the native build.
-
-= 1.0.0 - 14-Sep-2007
-* Initial release
+= 1.4.2 - 31-May-2009

-= Description
-   This is a drop-in replacement for the Win32API library currently part of

-= Differences between win32-api and Win32API
-   * This library has callback support
-   * This library supports raw function pointers.
-   * This library supports a separate string type for const char* (S).
-   * Argument order change. The DLL name is now last, not first.
-   * Removed the 'N' and 'n' prototypes. Always use 'L' for longs now.
-   * Sensible default arguments for the prototype, return type and DLL name.
-   * Reader methods for the function name, effective function name, prototype,
-     return type and DLL.
-   * Removed the support for lower case prototype and return types. Always
-     use capital letters.
-   * Resorts to wide character functions (where possible) when $KCODE is set
-     to UTF8.
-   
-= Developer's Notes
-   The current Win32API library that ships with the standard library has been
-   slated for removal from Ruby 2.0 and it will not receive any updates in the
-   Ruby 1.8.x branch. I have far too many libraries invested in it to let it
-   die at this point.
-   
-   In addition, the current Win32API library was written in the bad old Ruby
-   1.6.x days, which means it doesn't use the newer allocation framework.
-   There were several other refactorings that I felt it needed to more closely
-   match how it was actually being used in practice.
-   
-   The first order of business was changing the order of the arguments. By
-   moving the DLL name from first to last, I was able to provide reasonable
-   default arguments for the prototype, return type and the DLL. Only the
-   function name is required now.
-   
-   There was a laundry list of other refactorings that were needed: sensical
-   instance variable names with proper accessors, removing support for lower
-   case prototype and return value characters that no one used in practice,
-   better naming conventions, the addition of RDoc ready comments and,
-   especially, callback and raw function pointer support.
-   
-   Most importantly, we can now add, modify and fix any features that we feel
-   best benefit our end users.
-
-= Documentation
-   The source file contains inline RDoc documentation. If you installed
-   this file as a gem, then you have the docs.
-   
-= Warranty
-   This package is provided "as is" and without any express or
-   implied warranties, including, without limitation, the implied
-   warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose.
-   
-= Known Issues
-   Possible callback issues when dealing with multi-threaded applications.
