	* Tools/AGSParser.m: Warn about private methods and ivars.

2002-10-12  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSProcessInfo.m: Make safe to reinitialise with args.

	* Tools/autogsdoc.m: Initialise NSProcessInfo explicitly.

2002-10-11  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSUserDefaults.m: ([-initWithContentsOfFile:]) check to see
	if the file is writable and the directory exists.
	If we can't operate properly, run in read-only ,mode where we try
	to read the file if possible, but never write defaults back.

2002-10-10  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSUserDefaults.m: ([-synchronize]) handle locking more
	carefully ... avoid cpu intensive busy loops and give up after
	a while.

	* Source/NSLog.m: Added GSPrintf()
	* Tools/defaults.m: Use GSPrintf()

	* Documentation/Functions.gsdoc: ditto
	* Documentation/TypesAndConstants.gsdoc: ditto
	* Source/NSLog.m: Fix typo in comment.
	* Tools/AGSOutput.m: Bump gsdoc version to 1.0.0
	* Tools/GNUmakefile: Add gsdoc 1.0.0 dtd
	* Tools/autogsdoc.m: Bump gsdoc version to 1.0.0
	* Tools/gsdoc-0_6_7.dtd: Revert to earlier version
	* Tools/gsdoc-1_0_0.dtd: New from latest update to 0.6.7
	I think the documentation dtd is pretty complete now.

2002-10-09  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Tools/GNUmakefile: revert ... can't build if base library isn't
	installed.

2002-10-09  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSLog.m: Lots of documentation added.
	* Tools/GNUmakefile: build autogsdoc documentation automatically
	if possible.
	* Tools/AGSOutput.m: Make automatic cross references for functions.
	* Source/Docmakefile: Use handcrafted template files.  Document the
	path utilities file.
	* Documentation/Functions.gsdoc: Handcrafted template.
	* Documentation/TypesAndConstants.gsdoc: Handcrafted template.

2002-10-08  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Headers/Foundation/NSDebug.h: Make warn logs de-selectable at
	runtime by setting the NoWarn debug level.  Document.  Say that
	debug levels can be added by putting them in the GNU-Debug
	array in the defaults database.
	* Source/NSUserDefaults.m: Add contents of the GNU-Debug array to
	the set of active debug levels.
	* Tools/AGSParser.m: Updated with support for documenting macros.
	* Tools/AGSOutput.m: ditto
	* Tools/AGSHtml.m: ditto

2002-10-07  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSData.m: Update logging after checks for results of memory
	allocation.
	* Source/NSTimeZone.m: Don't abort on failure to allocate memory ...
	just print a log and continue returning a null pointer.

2002-10-06  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSData.m: readContentsOfFile() fix use of atomic memory
	on GC systems ... problem noticed by Fred.

Sat Oct  5 19:53:03 2002  Nicola Pero  <n.pero@mi.flashnet.it>

	* Source/NSData.m ([NSDataMappedFile
	-initWithContentsOfMappedFile:]): release self and return nil -
	rather than returning NO, if the path is bad.

2002-10-05  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Tools/AGSOutput.m: Improve warning code, support text output
	in chapter/section/subsection.
	* Tools/AGSParser.m: move concatenation of comments into a single
	method, make it insert a linebreak between concatenated comments,
	and make it refrain from appending the same comment onto itsself
	(which would happen if the same file was parsed twice, as both a
	header and as source).
	Treat the 'main()' function specially ... don't document it as a
	function but insert its comments at the end of the 'chapter' part
	of the output document.  These modifications make it easy to
	document a directory containing tools, by listing the tool source
	files as arguments to autogsdoc.
	Tools/gsdoc_0_6_7.dtd: Fix bug preventing use of text in a chapter!
	* Source/GSString.m: Implement -UTF8String method for better
	performance.
	* Source/NSPortNameServer.m: Improve diagnostic message in exception
	when reporting failure to register ... try to provide all the info
	needed to begin diagnosing any problem.
	* Tools/gdomap.c: Make -M flag work with -N.  Make -M flag work when
	used after -N or -L.  Improve diagnostic messages on failure so
	people know what it is trying to do.

2002-10-04  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSArray.m: Tidied init from file to ensure that everything
	is released properly on failure, and we don't generate log messages
	where a lower level API should be doing it.  Added some documentation.
	* Source/NSDictionary.m: ditto
	* Source/NSString.m: ditto.  Also add support for understanding the
	unicode BOM at the start of UTF8 data and stripping it.
	* Source/NSData.m: Tidied read from and write to file,
	adding lots of logging information.  Also documented quite a bit.
	Resolved all conflicts found with Adam's change ... generally in
	favor of the most informative logging.
	* Source/NSPortNameServer.m: On failure to register name, make
	exception message provide lots of detail/advice for newbies.

2002-10-03  Adam Fedor  <fedor@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSData.m (readContentsOfFile): Change NSDebugLog(s) to
	NSWarnLog or NSLog.
	(-writeToFile:atomically:): Idem.
	([NSDataMappedFile -initWithContentsOfMappedFile:]): Idem.
	* Source/NSDictionary.m ([NSDictionary -initWithContentsOfFile:]):
	Release ourselves and return nil if file cannot be read.

2002-10-03  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSRunLoop.m: ([-runMode:beforeDate:]) permit the use of a
	nil date and document it.  This is the behavior MacOS seems to have
	and seems to be more useful than prohibiting nil dates.

2002-10-02  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSDistributedLock.m: Document and tidy.
	* Source/NSTimeZone.m: Don't set system zone prematurely.
	* Source/NSString.m: Don't bother to cache constant string
	class.  Document it.

2002-10-01  Adam Fedor  <fedor@gnu.org>

	* config/pathxml.m4: Filter -L/usr/lib out of XML_LIBS.
	* configure: Regenerate.

2002-10-01 02:21  Alexander Malmberg <alexander@malmberg.org>

	* Source/NSUserDefaults.m (-synchronize): Handle lockDate being nil.

2002-09-30  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* NSTimeZones/NSTimeZones.tar: Updated to latest information.
	* Source/NSCalendarDate.m: Tidy up a little.
	* Source/NSTimeZone.m: Rewrite main timezone code for performance -
	Roughly doubles speed of most NSCalendarDate stuff.
	* NSThread.m: Fix for single threaded operation ... suggested by
	Ludovic Marcotte.

2002-09-29  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/GSFileHandle.m: Encapsulate read and write operations in
	new low level methods to ease subclassing.
	* SSL/GSSSLHandle.m: Use new read and write methods to simplify. 

2002-09-28  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSCalendarDate.m: Fix problem with signed/unsigned type
	conversion when initialising a date at a daylight savings time
	boundary, and attempt to improve the code for adding offsets to
	dates.
	* Source/Makefile.postamble: patch to fix some warnings in
	uninstall (by David Ayers).

2002-09-27  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/GSTcpPort.m: ([GSTcphandle+initialize]) ignore SIGPIPE in
	case a socket gets closed while we are writing.

2002-09-26  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/Additions/GSMime.m: Fix typo.

Thu Sep 26 01:28:33 2002  Nicola Pero  <n.pero@mi.flashnet.it>

	* Tools/make_strings/GNUmakefile: Do not include ctool.make.

2002-09-25  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/Additions/GSXML.m: Added ([-previousElement]) to match the
	[(-nextElement]) method.

Wed Sep 25 02:46:28 2002  Nicola Pero  <n.pero@mi.flashnet.it>

	* Tools/make_strings/make_strings.m (main): Remove "" languages
	from the list of languages before processing.

2002-09-24  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/GSTcpHandle.m: ([-handleForPort:beforeDate:]) fix bug where
	we could end up using the last (non-matching) handle rather than
	creating a new one.

2002-09-20  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/GSTcpHandle.m: ([-connectToPort:beforeDate:]) Added more
	informative logging for problem condition reported by Nicila ...
	perhaps it will help tracking down cause.

2002-09-19  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/GSFormat.m: Where a %p format prints a null pointer,
	print the text (null).
	* Source/GSTcpHandle.m: Check port for invalidation while looping
	on write events, so we can fail if we become invalid while sending
	or connecting, before the port timeout expires.
	* Source/NSConnection.m: Check connection for invalidation while
	looping waiting for a reply, so we can fail if we become invalid
	before the timeout expires.
	* Source/DocMakefile: Specify template options
	* Tools/autogsdoc.m: Remove hack to turn templates on by default.
	Document the use of templates.
	* Tools/gsdoc-0_6_7.dtd: Hack in more types for indexing ... don't
	know if the software works for them though.

2002-09-17  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/Unicode.m: Restructure conversion from unicode slightly,
	to make it clearer and more readable and to include handling of
	lossy conversions.
	* Headers/gnustep/unicode/gsm0338.h: Added table for lossy conversion
	from unicode.

2002-09-16  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Tools/AGSParser.m: Bugfix ... look for source files more
	intelligently. Try both current directory and relative to header.
	* Tools/AGSOutput.m: When creating template output file for functions
	etc because none was supplied, take account of the -Up flag and
	create an up link in it.
	* Source/GSHTTPURLHandle.m: If response parsing fails, fail the
	load operation and (conditionally when debug enabled) log an error.

2002-09-16  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSFileManager.m: Basic/dummy implementations of new MacOS-X
	methods added. Attribute handling totally rewritten to work in a lazy
	way ... so we only set up attribute info in the dictionary when we
	actually need it.  Account 'Number' methods and dictionary keys changed
	to be account 'ID' instead ... in accordance with MacOS-X usage.
	Documented the class.
	* Source/NSData.m: ([-writeToFile:atomically:]) implement workaround
	for bug in windoze implementation of rename()
	* Source/NSString.m: Remove some redundant code duplicating stuff in
	GSMime.m

2002-09-15  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSFileManager.m: MacOS-X ([componentsToDisplayForPath:]) and
	([displayNameAtPath:]) methods implemented.  Creation date added.
	* Source/NSString.m: More alterations to GNUstep extension methods
	to make their names consistent with other methods.
	Q. Should we deprecate/remove them entirely?
	* Tools/gsdoc.m: Update for changes to extension methods... though
	this tool has been deprecated for some time now, so perhaps we
	should remove it?

2002-09-13  Adam Fedor  <fedor@gnu.org>

	* Source/cifframe.m (cifframe_guess_struct_size): Recurse if
	element contains structures.
	(cifframe_from_info): Alloc room for return value even if caller
	doesn't use it.

Thu Sep 12 11:02:03 2002  Nicola Pero  <n.pero@mi.flashnet.it>

	* Source/NSObject.m ([+_becomeMultiThreaded:]): Fixed typo - this
	method was declared to take a 'NSNotification' rather than a
	'NSNotification *' argument.

2002-09-10  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/GSLocale.m: Double locking check fix
	* Source/NSFileManager.m: Double locking check fix
	Fixes contributed by David Ayers <d.ayers@inode.at>

2002-09-08  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Headers/gnustep/base/GSIArray.h: Minor optimisation
	* Headers/gnustep/unicode/gsm0338.h: Correct unicode to gsm table
	* Source/Unicode.m: Correct gsm conversion and optimise unicode to
	8-bit charaacter conversion for other character sets. Also correct
	lossy/non-lossy conversion using iconv.

2002-08-30  Adam Fedor  <fedor@gnu.org>

	* Version: 1.5.0

2002-08-30  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSString.m: Implemented new MacOS-X methods -
	([-stringByPaddingToLength:withString:startingAtIndex:]), and
	([-stringByTrimmingCharactersInSet:])
	Tidied a couple of extension method names for consistency and
	documented several methods.

2002-08-29  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/Additions/GSXML.m: Get libxml to put filename in error
	messages when it is available.

2002-08-28  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/Unicode.m: Rewritten the way that iconv is used to decide
	upon the available encodings ... lazy evaluation so that we don't
	try to lookup an encoding until we have to.  This should improve
	process startup time (especially in gdb) since the iconv operations
	seem to be very slow.

2002-08-27  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/Additions/GSXML.m: Integrated GSXPath code by Nicola Pero
	provides an API to use the xpath support built into libxml from
	version 2.3 onwards.
	* Source/NSThread.m: Implement new priority methods.
	* Source/NSObject.m: Raise exception when passed null selector.

2002-08-27  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSData.m: ([-writeToFile:atomically:]) Removed bogus line
	which deleted files when it shouldn't.
	Added new MacOS-X methods supporting NSData objects where the bytes
	are not owned by the data object.  Removed GNUstep extension which
	provided this functionality before.
	* Source/NSUserDefaults.m: Use distributed lock to ensure that there
	is no possible window when the defaults file is invalid ... not all
	systems guarantee that the rename() system call is atomic.
	* Source/NSArray.m: New MacOS-X methods ([-initWithArray:copyItems:])
	([-exchangeObjectAtIndex:withObjectAtIndex:])
	* Source/NSTimer.m: Update for compatibility with latest MacOS-X
	* Source/NSObject.m: New ([+isSubclassOfClass:]) and perform
	cancellation from MacOS-X
	* Source/NSRunloop.m: New perform cancellation method from MacOS-X
	proofreading help/fixes from David Ayers.
 
2002-08-25  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/WindowsFileHandle.m: Removed ... no longer used.
	* Source/GSHTTPURLHandle.m: Don't use getpid() ... not portable.
	* Tools/gdomap.c: Don't use getuid() under windoze. 

2002-08-24  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSURL.m: ([-initFileURLWithPath:]) check to see if path is
	a directory and append a trailing slash if necessary.  Remove hack
	to refrain from stripping last patch component in file URLs.

2002-08-24  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSURL.m: Hacks for compatibility with MacOS-X in returning
	path of a file URL ... the RFC says we should only return a path
	for a generic URL (scheme://user:passwd@host:port/path#frag?query)
	which a file URL certainly isn't.  However, for compatibility we
	now treat a file URL more like a generic one.
	Also when creating absolute file URLs from base plus relative,
	the MacOS-X code doesn't strip the last path component of the
	base URL as it should ... we emulate that too.

2002-08-22  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSFileManager.m: Fix typo ... missing closing brace under
	windoze. Reported by Alex Stockdale.

2002-08-21  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSObject.m: ([-replacementObjectForPortCoder:])
	Documented method and removed unused/unwanted code dealing with
	NSDistantObject (NSDistantObject overrides the method).

2002-08-20  Alexander Malmberg <alexander@malmberg.org>

	* Source/NSObject.m: Fix silly typo.

2002-08-20  Alexander Malmberg <alexander@malmberg.org>

	This completes the transfer of all gsdoc documentation into
	the source code.
	* Documentation/gsdoc:  All obsolete files removed.

2002-08-19  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSProxy.m: Documented all methods and corrected implementation

	* Source/DocMakefile: New file for building refetrence documentation.
	* Documentation/Base.gsdoc: New from source directory.
	* Documentation/GNUmakefile: Set up installation directory name.
	* Documentation/Makefile.postamble: Use ../Source/DocMakefile to build
	library reference documentation and deal with installation.

2002-08-15  Adam Fedor  <fedor@gnu.org>

	* configure.ac: Add NetBSD header/ldflag support (Patch from
	Peter Cooper).

	* Headers/gnustep/base/GNUstep.h: New compatibility file.

2002-08-15  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* SSL/GNUmakefile: Added -lgnustep-base and -lobjc to SSL_BUNDLE_LIBS
	So that bundle is linked with a dependency on these libraries ... to
	ensure that dynamic linkage works when the bundle is loaded in from
	java via jigs.

2002-08-15  Adam Fedor  <fedor@gnu.org>

	* SSL/configure.ac: Simplified check for libraries. Added socket
	lib check for Solaris.

	* Headers/gnustep/base/NSDecimalNumber.h: Add NSNumber category
	for decimalValue.
	* Source/NSDecimalNumber.m ([NSNumber -decimalValue]): Implemented.

2002-08-14  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSConcreteNumber.m: Output 'YES' as boolean in description.
	* Source/NSNotificationCenter.m: Fix dumb memory leak.
	* Source/NSNumber.m: Output 'YES' as boolean in description.
	* Source/NSUserDefaults.m: Set 'YES' as boolean string.
	* Headers/Foundation/NSObject.h: Fix v dumb memory leak.
	* Source/GSHTTPURLHandle.m: Append crlf to separate headers from body

	([-initWithBytes:objCType:])

2002-08-09  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSNotificationCenter.m: ([-postNotification:]) Correct to

	initialisation.
	* Source/NSNotification.m: Rewritten as abstract/cluster class for
	implementation compatibility with MacOS-X
	* Source/NSNotificationCenter.m: Modified posting to behave like the
	MacOS-X implementation.  Implement concrete subclass of
	NSNotification.
	* Source/NSUserDefaults.m: Try to make creation of new defaults
	database an atomic operation.
	* Source/NSObject.m: Remove dealloc notifications hack ... the
	dealloc method can now safely be used to refrain from deallocating
	objects, so I don't think the hack is needed any more.
	* Source/NSProcessInfo.m: ([-globallyUniqueString]) Update to ensure
	uniqueness across all hosts, processes, and threads.
	* Tools/gdomap.c: Tidyup patch by Matthias Klose

2002-07-29  Adam Fedor  <fedor@gnu.org>

	* Merge changes from 1.4.0 onto main branch.

	([-deallocNotificationsActive]), ([setDeallocNotificationsActive:])
	as these methods are no longer necessary now that the dealloc method

	* Source/NSHashTable.m:
	* Source/NSMapTable.m:

	* Source/NSRunLoop.m:
	Applied patches by James Knight, to improve memory efficiency and
	insertion.deletion speed to hash and map tables.  Also fixes for
	some GC problems.
	Fixed minor problem in patch, and added code to call functions to
	clean up after hash and map enumerations.  Modified cleanup function
	to clear enumerator ... for memory release on GC system.
	Rewrote enumeration code so that it maintains the characteristic
	that objects can safely be removed from maps after being enumerated
	(this feature is used in several places).
	*WARNING* This introduces a binary incompatibility in that the size
	of the map table and hash table enumeration types has grown.
	If you have binaries which use the NSEnumerateHashTable() or the
	NSEnumeratemapTable() functions, you need to rebuild them.

2001-09-26  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

        * Source/GNUmakefile: install DistributedObjects.h in gnustep/base

	of the process so that the whole thing is thread-safe and we don't
	get cases where code in one place tries to work with an object that
	was released in another place.

	programs for maframe, and not at all for libffi.

	* Source/NSData.m: readContentsOfFile() hack added to permit reading
	of files like those in the /proc filesystem which don't support
	lengths.
	* Source/NSString.m: ([-initWithFormat:locale:]) use dummy local
	variable to try to get compilation to work on alpha ... untested
	as I don't have an alpha system.

2001-07-02  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSString.m: Never init nocopy with null pointer - increase
	chance of double initialisation being detected.

2001-06-27  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/callframe.m: callframe_do_call_opts(),
	callframe_build_return_opts() fixed memory leaks.

	run loop waits rather than polling as fast as the CPU allows.

2001-06-20  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

        * Source/NSTask.m: handleSignal() ... reset signal handler for
	systems that don't have BSD signal semantics.
	Report by jan trembulak
	* Source/GSString.m: getCString_c(), getCString_u() reverse logic
	of returning remaining range ... report by Michael Scheibler

        * Source/NSuserDefaults.m: Fix +resetUserDefaults to retain the
        NSRegistrationDomain information ... was losing it when this method
        was called in response to the user name being initially set.
        ([-registerDefaults:]) fix for when no dictionary found.
        Use NSLanguages rather than Languages as key for the languages list.
	* Source/NSUser.m: GSSetUserName() ... only reset the user defaults
	if the name is actually changed - and not if it is being initialised.
	When standardUserDefaults are first obtained, the user name should be
	initialised as part of that process anyway.
        * Source/NSFileManager.m: ([-removeFileAtpath:handler:])
        Fix this method so it *doesn't* follow symbolic links.
        This makes it conform to the documentation and prevents
        accidental removal of entire directory hierarchies!

Wed Jun 13 19:43:16 2001  Nicola Pero  <n.pero@mi.flashnet.it>

	* Source/NSFileManager.m
	([-createSymbolicLinkAtPath:pathContent:]): Fixed - the call to

	needs to source GNUstep.sh and then exit with an error.

2001-06-05  Nicola Pero  <n.pero@mi.flashnet.it>

	* Source/mframe.m: Disabled inlining of nested functions.  This
	should allow gnustep-base to be compiled using gcc 3.0.

	NSWarnMLog() message.
	* Source/NSDictionary.m: ([-initWithContentsOfFile:]) use NSWarnMLog

	* Source/NSObject.m: Removed some unused obsolete code.
	* Source/NSProxy.m: Modified ([methodSignatureForSelector:]) and
	([respondsToSelector:]) to work for existing methods and raise

	* Source/NSDate.m: GSTimeNow() remove volatile typespec and move
	initialisation of interval in the hope of fixing a problem with
	float operations.  In any case, the code is tidier.
	* Tools/gdomap.c: If started as root, try to become user nobody
	before resorting to uid -2 (like NFS).

2001-05-03  Adam Fedor  <fedor@gnu.org>

	* configure.in: Don't use -lobjc with NeXT_RUNTIME. Check for -lm.

	* Headers/gnustep/base/objc-gnu2next.h: Add sel_register_name
	* Source/behavior.m: Add define hacks for Darwin.

2001-05-03  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

2001-04-30  Adam Fedor  <fedor@gnu.org>

	* Source/behavior.m: Rewrite to work with NeXT runtime.
	* Headers/gnustep/base/objc-gnu2next.h: Add some extra translations.

2001-04-30  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSString.m: parseQuotedString() handle \U escape sequences
	of eight digit hex encoded unicode values.
	([descriptionWithLocale:indent:to@]) handle unicode strings by using
	\U escape sequences in output C string.

2001-04-28  Fred Kiefer <FredKiefer@gmx.de>

	* Source/NSString.m: 
	Corrected bug in last optimization for the parsing of property
	list. Now the bitmap representation is retained not the
	characterset itself. This did cause undeterministic problems when
	reading in the Info.plist.

2001-04-28  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSLog.m: Use RETAIN/RELEASE
	* Source/GSLocale.m: Set up NSDecimalSeparator and NSThousandsSeparator
	from locale if possible.  Fix bug dereferencing nil pointer.
	* Source/GSFormat.m: Hack to rewrite output from sprintf of floats and
	doubles to use the value in NSDecimalSeparator.

2001-04-27  Nicola Pero  <n.pero@mi.flashnet.it>

	* Source/NSString.m: Minor optimization for parsing property
	lists: cache the bitmap representation of hexdigit, quotable and
	whitespace character sets, and use it directly to determine
	whether a character is member or not of these sets.
	
2001-04-26  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSString.m: ([+initialize]) protect with flag so it is safe
	to call this method more than once.
	* Source/externs.m: GSBuildStrings() call +initialize method for
	NSString to ensure that the class is properly initialised even if
	this function has been called from NSObjects +initialize, which was
	in turn called in preparation for NSString initialisation!

2001-04-25  Adam Fedor  <fedor@gnu.org>

	* configure.in: Much simplified NeXT checks. Just use LIBRARY_COMBO
	to check runtime.
	* Source/o_vscanf.c: Remove objc-gnu2next.h

2001-04-25  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Headers/Foundation/GSXML.h: Many changes to restore encapsulation
	of libxml previously broken by someone...  Partly as a matter of
	good OO programming practice, partly so that the library can be
	used effectively from Java (via JIGS).
	Moved libxml header includes out of this file.
	Removed typedefs for libxml constants and changed 'type' methods
	to return 'int'.
	Added class methods for mapping between integer type values
	and constant string type values.
	Added a typeDescription method to GSXMLAttribute for consistency.
	* Source/GSXML.m: include required headers and update to implement
	changes in API.  Also fixed bug in implementation of typeDescription
	method for GSXMLNamespace.
	* Documentation/gsdoc/GSXMLNode.gsdoc: Updated to reflect current API
	* Documentation/gsdoc/GSXMLNamespace.gsdoc: ditto
	* Documentation/gsdoc/GSXMLAttribute.gsdoc: ditto

2001-04-25  Nicola Pero  <nicola@brainstorm.co.uk>

	* base.make.in: (GNUSTEP_BASE_VERSION),
	(GNUSTEP_BASE_MAJOR_VERSION), (GNUSTEP_BASE_MINOR_VERSION),
	(GNUSTEP_BASE_SUBMINOR_VERSION): New variables providing the
	gnustep-base version.
	
2001-04-24  Adam Fedor  <fedor@gnu.org>

	* Headers/gnustep/base/objc-gnu2next.h: Remove TypedStream defs

2001-04-24  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSObject.m: Fixes for string capitalisation in
	key-value methods.

2001-04-23  Adam Fedor  <fedor@gnu.org>

	* configure.in: Simplify NeXT checks.
	* Headers/gnustep/base/NSLock.h: Fix NeXT_RUNTIME typo.
	* Headers/gnustep/base/objc-gnu2next.h: Change *_EXPORT to extern
	* Source/o_vscanf.c: include objc-gnu2next.h
	* Source/NSConnection.m: Fix test for NeXT_RUNTIME define.
	* Source/NSDistantObject.m: Likewise.
	* Source/callframe.m: Likewise.
	* Source/cifframe.m: Likewise.
	* Source/mframe.m: Likewise.

2001-04-24   Nicola Pero  <n.pero@mi.flashnet.it>

	* Testing/benchmark.m (bench_object): Use a choice of the 10 more
	used classes when benchmarking class method invocation, rather
	than always using `NSObject'.  Added bench for NSClassFromString.

2001-04-23  Nicola Pero  <nicola@brainstorm.co.uk>

	* Source/GSValue.m ([-getValue:]): Fixed typo - was raising
	exception on non-NULL buffer rather than NULL.

2001-04-23  Nicola Pero  <nicola@brainstorm.co.uk>

	* Source/NSBundle.m ([+initialize]): Fixed segmentation fault when
	NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains returns an empty array.  This
	used to appear when GNUSTEP_SYSTEM_ROOT was unset.
	* Source/NSUser.m (NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains): Read
	GNUSTEP_SYSTEM_ROOT, GNUSTEP_LOCAL_ROOT, GNUSTEP_NETWORK_ROOT and
	GNUSTEP_USER_ROOT only once, then cache them.  Do not crash if
	some of them are nil.  If GNUSTEP_SYSTEM_ROOT is nil, fprintf a
	log message, and try using /usr/GNUstep/System.  Use new ADD_PATH
	macro to simplify code.  Autorelease returned array which was
	previously leaked.

2001-04-22  Georg Fleischmann

	* Source/GSAttributedString.m:
	([replaceCharactersInRange:withString:])
	recalculate effective range after removing attributes.

2001-04-23  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/GSLocale.m: Only call setlocale() in GSSetLocaleC()
	* Source/NSObject.m: ([+initialize]) call GSSetLocaleC() after other
	initialisation, to try to ensure that locale stuff is set up early
	before any attempt is made to use locale dependent code.
	* Source/NSString.m: ([-stringByExpandingTildeInPath:]) fix suggested
	by David Wetzel.
	* Source/GSValue.m: Fix abort when initialising value with illegal
	type.  Also fix all other uses of objc_sizeof_type(), add some checks
	to conform to documentation, and some optimisations.

2001-04-22  Nicola Pero  <n.pero@mi.flashnet.it>

	* Testing/benchmark.m: Modified messages to give a better idea of
	the order of magnitudes involved; added benchmarks for
	retain/release, autorelease/retain and locking/unlocking.

2001-04-21  Nicola Pero  <n.pero@mi.flashnet.it>

	* Source/NSString.m ([-fileSystemRepresentation]): Cache the
	default file manager.
	
2001-04-21  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* config/config.proccmd.c: New test for behavior of /proc cmdline
	* acconfig.h: New CMDLINE_TERMINATED constant
	* configure.in: Use test to set CMDLINE_TERMINATED
	* configure: regenerated
	* Headers/Foundation/config.h.in: regenerated
	* Source/NSProcessInfo.m : ([+load]) modified to use CMDLINE_TERMINATED
	to decide how to use /proc/$$/cmdline when determining process args.
	Should now work 100% on all linux versions I hope.

2001-04-20  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSData.m ([NSMutableDataMalloc
	-replaceBytesInRange:withBytes:]): Check length, not capacity!
	Conform to documentation, and avoid possibility of 'hole' in data.
	* Source/NSInvocation.m: _get_arg() indirection fix suggested by
	Michael Scheibler.

2001-04-20  Nicola Pero  <n.pero@mi.flashnet.it>

	* Source/NSFileManager.m (NSDirectoryEnumerator): Rewritten to be
	faster.  ([NSFileManager -directoryContentsAtPath:]),
	([NSFileManager -subpathsAtPath:]): Use the new init method for
	NSDirectoryEnumerator.  ([NSFileManager
	-contentsEqualAtPath:andPath:]): Spare some method calls.
	([NSFileManager -fileSystemRepresentationWithPath:]): Cleaned
	preprocessor directives.
	* Headers/gnustep/base/NSFileManager.h (NSDirectoryEnumerator):
	Changed ivars in sync.
	
2001-04-19  Nicola Pero  <nicola@brainstorm.co.uk>

	* Documentation/gsdoc/NSFunctions.gsdoc: Documented
	GSDebugAllocation* functions.
	* Documentation/gsdoc/NSRecursiveLock.gsdoc: Fixed syntax error.
	* Documentation/gsdoc/*.html: Regenerated.
	
2001-04-19  Nicola Pero  <nicola@brainstorm.co.uk>

	To help with debugging memory leaks, you can now ask to the
	library to track all allocated instances of a certain class.
	* Source/NSDebug.m (table_entry): Added fields to allow recording
	the list of allocated instances if required.
	(GSDebugAllocationActiveRecordingObjects): New function.  
	(GSDebugAllocationAdd): Modified to take an additional argument -
	the object being allocated -, and to record it in the list of
	instances for the class if recording instances of that class has
	been activated.
	(GSDebugAllocationRemote): Add a similar additional argument;
	remove the object from the list of instances if recording
	instances is activated.
	(GSDebugAllocationListRecordedObjects): New function.
	* Source/NSObject.m: Updated all occurrences of
	GSDebugAllocationAdd and GSDebugAllocationRemove to pass the 
	allocated/removed object as well.
	* Headers/gnustep/base/NSDebug.h: Updated.

2001-04-19  Nicola Pero  <nicola@brainstorm.co.uk>

	* Source/GSTcpPort.m ([GSTcpPort -dealloc]): Fixed memory leak:
	release address string.

2001-04-19  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSTask.m: Tidied code a little, added safety checks for
	usePseudoTerminal method.
	* Source/NSData.m: ([writeToFile:atomically:]) create new files
	with permission 0644 modified by umask.
	Init tmppath for MINGW.
	* Tools/gsdoc.m: Use memory management macros and attempt to get
	back to something like conformance with coding standards.
	* Documentation/gsdoc/NSTask.gsdoc: documentation fleshed out.

2001-04-16  Adam Fedor  <fedor@gnu.org>

	* aclocal.m4: Detect the xm2-config script.

2001-04-14  Mirko Viviani  <mirko.viviani@rccr.cremona.it>

	* configure.in: fixed fake main for 'new' FreeBSD targets.

2001-04-13  Adam Fedor  <fedor@gnu.org>

	* Source/GSFFCallInvocation.m (GSInvocationCallback): Generate
	an exception for an invalid selector.

2001-04-12  Adam Fedor  <fedor@gnu.org>

	* Headers/gnustep/base/NSObjCRuntime: Revert to using class_pointer.
	* Headers/gnustep/base/objc-gnu2next.h: Redefine class_pointer.

2001-04-12  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSProcessInfo.m ([load]): Fixed single line change somehow
	missed from last patch.

2001-04-12  Adam Fedor  <fedor@gnu.org>

	* Headers/gnustep/base/NSLock.h: Include thrmach.h if NeXT_RUNTIME.
	* Headers/gnustep/base/NSThread.h: Likewise.
	* Headers/gnustep/base/NSObjCRuntime: Include objc-gnu2next.h if
	NeXT_RUNTIME, use common objc functions for compatibility.
	* Headers/gnustep/base/objc-gnu2next.h: Update, simplify.
	* Headers/gnustep/base/thr-mach.h: New file
	* Source/thr-mach.m: New file
	* Source/GNUmakefile: Update to conditionally compile NeXT files

	* Documentation/gsdoc/NSRecursiveLock.gsdoc: Update.

2001-04-12  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSString.m: For efficiency, use _DefaultStringEncoding
	throughout, rather than calling +defaultCStringEncoding.  This is
	safe since the documentation explicitly states that the encoding
	cannot be changed programmatically ... so we don't have to worry
	about someone adding a category to change that.
	When converting data to/from strings, optimise to simple cString
	stuff if the specified encoding is the defautl encoding.
	Tidied some stuff to conform better to coding standards.
	* Source/Unicode.m GetDefEncoding(): prohibit UTF8 from being the
	default cString encoding ... the default cString encoding must
	consist of 7 or 8 bit characters, and must contain ASCII as a
	subset.  We really should think of a generalised test for that.
	Use GetDefEncoding() throughout rather than defaultCStringEncoding.
	* Source/GSString.m: Use GetDefEncoding() to get c string encoding.

2001-04-11  Nicola Pero  <nicola@brainstorm.co.uk>
	
	* Source/NSString.m ([-initWithData:encoding:]): When working with
	a generic but non-unicode encoding, do not treat a single
	character string with no null terminator as an empty string.  This
	should fix passing single character strings over DO.
	* Source/NSThread.m ([+registerCurrentThread]),
	([+unregisterCurrentThread]): Removed.

2001-04-11  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/GSFFCallInvocation.m: bugfix encoding ... pass correct
	method type information so that the other end knows whether this
	is a oneway message or not.  Corrects major memory leak.
	* Source/NSConnection.m: bugfix to handle situations where the
	other end sends a response and we are not expecting it.  Also
	added various bits of debugging and ensured that all NSPortCoder
	objects are cached.

2001-04-10  Adam Fedor  <fedor@gnu.org>

	* Headers/gnustep/base/preface.h.in: Correct NeXT_RUNTIME name

	* Documentation/gsdoc/NSLock.h: Documented.

2001-04-10  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSTask.m: Bugfix to send out task termination notification
	and clean up correctly when a task is killed by a signal rather than
	exiting cleanly.

2001-04-09  Adam Fedor  <fedor@gnu.org>

	* 1.0 branch merged into main.

2001-04-06  Nicola Pero  <n.pero@mi.flashnet.it>

	* Source/NSString.m (pathSepMember): Made trivial and inlined.
	([-stringsByAppendingPaths:]): Count the array only once, not for
	any loop in the cycle.
	
2001-04-05  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSUser.m: NSTemporaryDirectory() rewrite for improved
	security and reliability.  Expect MINGW update soon.

2001-04-02  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSUser.m: Tidied some stuff to conform to coding standards.
	Added FIXME where unsure of code.  Tidied code to get name of user.
	* configure.in: Added checks for a few functions needed to get user.

2001-03-37  Jonathan Gapen  <jagapen@home.com>

	* Source/NSString.m: New private function to compute the scalar value
	of a high-low surrogate pair.  New surrogate range class variables.
	Optimize ([-hasPrefix]) and ([-hasSuffix]) by using NSAnchoredSearch.
	Add UTF-8 code to ([-dataUsingEncoding:allowLossyConversion:]).

2001-03-26  Jonathan Gapen  <jagapen@home.com>

	* Source/Makefile.preamble: No need to define HAVE_LIBXML here.
	* Source/NSBundle.m: ([+initialize]) and ([+pathForGNUstepResource:
	ofType:inDirectory:]) now use NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains()
	to find directories, rather than use env vars directly.
	* Source/NSCharacterSet.m: Ditto for ([_-bitmapForSet:]).
	* Source/NSDictionary.m: Make NSLog() include the filename
	in ([-initWithContentsOfFile:]).
	* Source/NSUser.m: Re-implement NSStandardApplicationPaths() and
	NSStandardLibraryPaths() with NSSearchPathsForDirectoriesInDomains().
	In latter function, support $GNUSTEP_SYSTEM_ROOT/Developer/Demos.

2001-03-21  Jonathan Gapen  <jagapen@home.com>

	* config/nextcc.m4, config/objc-con-autoload.m4, config/procfs.m4,
	config/objc-sys-dynamic.m4, config/procfs-exe-link.m4: Autoconf
	macros used by configure.in.

2001-04-08  Adam Fedor  <fedor@gnu.org>

	* Version: 1.0.0
	* NEWS: Regenerated.

	* Source/NSLock.m (-tryLock): Return NO if our thread has
	already has the lock (like OpenStep).
	(-lockBeforeDate:): block until date if our thread already has 
	the lock (like OpenStep).

	* Source/NSData.m ([NSMutableDataMalloc
	-replaceBytesInRange:withBytes:]): Check capacity, not length.

2001-04-04  Adam Fedor  <fedor@gnu.org>

	* config.guess: Update to latest version
	* config.sub: Likewise.

2001-04-01 2001  Nicola Pero  <n.pero@mi.flashnet.it>

	* Source/GSValue.m ([-description]): Bug fix - was crashing upon
	using %@ instead of %s for a char *.

2001-03-31  Adam Fedor  <fedor@gnu.org>

	* Documentation/announce.texi: Update.
	* Documentation/install.texi: Likewise.

	* Testing/Makefile.preamble: Set BUNDLE_LIBS on mingw and cygwin.
	* Testing/nsbundle.m: add NSProcessInfo's initializeWithArguments:...

2001-03-28  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSProcessInfo.m: ([+load]) Fix in parsing of command line
	arguments from /proc filesystem.  On newer kernels the command line
	arguments are terminated by a nul, on older systems they are separated
	by a nul.  The old code would add an extra (empty) argument to all
	processes on newer kernels.  The new code will lose a trailing empty
	argument on older kernels :-(  I view it as the lesser of two evils
	since the extra empty arg confuses/breaks a lot of tools.

2001-03-27  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSFileManager.m: Fix file copying for MINGW by using
	windows native copy function - fix by Michael Scheibler.
	Also tidied to conform to coding standards, and fixed to use
	O_BINARY where the system defines it.

2001-03-26  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Headers/Foundation/NSObject.h: GS_EXPORT updates for MINGW
	* Headers/Foundation/NSObCRuntime.h: ditto
	* Headers/Foundation/NSRange.h: ditto
	* Source/NSRange.m: ditto
	Fixes suggested by Michael Scheibler
	
2001-03-24  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSData.m: ([-replaceBytesInRange:withBytes:]) bugfix ...
	revert to check using '>' rather than '>=' to conform to documentation
	and to be consistent with use of ranges in general.
	* Documentation/gsdoc/NSMutableData.gsdoc: documented primitive methods.
	* Documentation/gsdoc/NSFunctions.gsdoc: Some documentation for NSRange
	added.

2001-03-23  Adam Fedor  <fedor@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSData.m: ([-replaceBytesInRange:withBytes:]) Check location
	>= size.

2001-03-23  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSData.m: ([-replaceBytesInRange:withBytes:]) bugfix ...
	extend data if range has location in data, but extent beyond data.

2001-03-23  Adam Fedor  <fedor@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSSerializer.m (serializeToInfo): Use memcpy to serialize
	strings on machines that need word alignment.
	* Source/NSTimeZone.m (decode): For decoding, likewise.

	* Testing/thread-except.m: Use autorelease pools.

2001-03-23  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSFileManager.m: MINGW fixes by Michael Scheibler.
	([_attributesAtPath:traverseLink:forCopy:]) fix 'cos windows lacks
	symbolic links.  ([-changeFileAttributes:atPath:]) workaround for
	windows directories not having modification times.
	([-fileSystemAttributesAtPath:]) fix for large volumes (matching
	change for unix too ... use unsigned long long).

2001-03-23  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSObject.m: ([-methodSignatureForSelector:]) try to get a
	valid method signature any way we can ... check for a valid method
	first, use selector types next.  Avoid crash when given nul selector
	as an argument.
	* Source/NSMethodSignature.m: ([+signatureWithObjCTypes:]) don't
	crash when given nul pointer as argument.

2001-03-19  Jonathan Gapen  <jagapen@home.com>

	* Source/NSString.m: Implement ([-localizedStringWithFormat:]).
	Fix ([-localizedCompare:]) and ([-localizedCaseInsensitiveCompare:]).
	(They will work when ([-compare:options:range:locale:]) works.)
	Fix ([-initWithContentsOfFile:]) and ([-initWithContentsOfURL:]) so
	that they deal with 1 byte of data, and clarify Unicode BOM test with
	new class variables byteOrderMark and byteOrderMarkSwapped.
	In ([-initWithData:encoding:]) and ([-initWithCoder:]), don't treat
	the default C string encoding the same as ASCII.  GCC 3.0 supports
	UTF-8 as a C string encoding, so this behavior is undesirable.

2001-03-19  Jonathan Gapen  <jagapen@home.com>

	* Source/NSAutoreleasePool.m, Source/NSCharacterSet.m,
	Source/NSHashTable.m, Source/NSMapTable.m, Source/NSZone.m:
	Update from %s/([-cString]) to %@ for format strings.
	* Source/NSDecimal.m: In GSDecimalFromString(), use ([-lossyCString])
	instead of ([-cString]) which should (in the future) always return
	ASCII-range decimal digits in place of digits from other languages.

2001-03-19  Nicola Pero  <nicola@brainstorm.co.uk>

	* Source/NSThread.m: registerCurrentThread and
	unregisterCurrentThread turned into functions - called
	GSRegisterCurrentThread and GSUnregisterCurrentThread.
	* Headers/gnustep/base/NSThread.h: Updated for change.

	* Source/NSThread.m (GSRegisterCurrentThread): Call
	objc_thread_add before creating the NSThread object using a method
	call.  (GSUnregisterCurrentThread): Post the NSThreadWillExit
	notification.
	
2001-03-19  Jonathan Gapen  <jagapen@home.com>

	* Source/NSString.m: In ([-rangeOfComposedCharacterSequenceAtIndex:]),
	use the NSCharacterSet non-base character set to identify non-base
	characters.  In ([-cStringLength]), do not allow lossy string
	conversion.  In ([+localizedNameOfStringEncoding:]), use NSBundle's
	([-gnustepBundle]) rather than looking in root path.

2001-03-17  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Headers/Foundation/NSThread.h: Remove unused ivar.
	* Source/NSThread.m: Revise scheme for deallocation of thread
	dictionary ... keep it operating to avoid problems with stuff
	trying to use it while deing deallocated.  Log memory leaks.
	* Source/NSRunLoop.m: ([+currentRunLoop]) return nil if there is
	no thread dictionary available (shouldn't happen).
	* Source/NSString.m: MINGW path handling fixes by Michael Scheibler
	stringByAppendingPath, isAbsolurtePath, and stringByStandardizingPath.
	
2001-03-16  Nicola Pero  <n.pero@mi.flashnet.it>

	* Source/Makefile.postamble (after-install): Removed old 
	code for creating /etc/services.add when packaging.
	
	* Makefile.postamble
	($(INSTALL_ROOT_DIR)$(GNUSTEP_MAKEFILES)/Additional): New target;
	create the directory.  (before-install): Don't create the
	directory, but depend on the new target.
	* Resources/GNUmakefile.postamble: Idem for $(languagedir).
	* NSCharacterSets/Makefile.postamble: Idem for $(charsetdir).
	* NSTimeZones/Makefile.postamble: Idem for $(timezonedir).
	
2001-03-16  Manuel Guesdon <mguesdon@orange-concept.com>

	* Tools/pl*.m: added #include <Foundation/Foundation.h> to avoid 
		GNUSTEP Internal Error

2001-03-14  Adam Fedor  <fedor@gnu.org>

	* Source/libgnustep-base.def: Remove some classes that aren't
	used on MinGW32.

2001-03-13  Adam Fedor  <fedor@gnu.org>

	* configure.in: Check and set EXEEXT needed by some tests.
	* aclocal.m4: Fixes for constructor test.

2001-03-12  Jonathan Gapen  <jagapen@home.com>

	* Headers/gnustep/base/NSString.h: Change NSCyrillicStringEncoding
	to NSISOCyrillicStringEncoding, and likewise for Greek, Arabic, and
	Hebrew, to avoid ambiguity.  Add enum values for all remaining
	ISO-8859 character sets, plus UTF-7.
	* Source/GSXML.m: Update pursuant to above changes.
	* Source/NSString.m: Ditto.
	* Source/Unicode.m: Ditto.

2001-03-11  Adam Fedor  <fedor@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSThread.m: Remove runtime.h include since this isn't
	normally installed by objc, add back in extern variables.

2001-03-10  Adam Fedor  <fedor@gnu.org>

	* Version 0.9.2
	* Makefile.postamble (before-install): Remove extra '/' before
	GNUSTEP_MAKEFILES

	* configure.in: Check for objc_thread_add in runtime.
	* Source/NSThread.m (objc_thread_add): Define only if not in runtime
	(objc_thread_remove): Likewise.

2001-03-10  Manuel Guesdon <mguesdon@orange-concept.com>

	* GSXML.m/.h: added errer, warning and fatal error methods with 
		line and col parameters in GSSAXHandler.

2001-03-08  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Headers/gnustep/base/NSCalendarDate.h:
	* Headers/gnustep/base/NSTimeZone.h: New files for MacOS-X compatibility

	decodePort() added new parameter so that an empty string can be
	decoded as the host to which the GSTcpHandle is talking.
	Modified in various places to keep a record of the IP address of the
	remote end of the connection, so we can pass this to decodePort()
	([-getFds:count:]) fixed error in determining set of file descriptors
	to listen to - resulted in two threads listening to the same descriptor
	at the same time!

2000-11-13  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

        * Source/NSGAttributedString.m: partial rewrite to cache/unique

	Documentation/Developer/Base/Manual.
	* Documentation/gsdoc/GNUmakefile
	(Base_DOCUMENTATION_INSTALL_DIR): Install gsdoc reference in
	Documentation/Developer/Base/Reference.

2000-11-06 Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSString.m: handle_printf_atsign() - use lossyCString to
	get string to print.  This is a temporary *HACK* - we need a proper
	unicode supporting initWithFormat:
	* Source/GSString.m: ([GSMutableString substringWithRange:]) fix to
	allocate inline string classes for substrings.

2000-11-04 Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSCalendarDate.m ([NSCalendarDate -initWithString:
	calendarFormat:locale:]): try getting timezone by name before
	attempting by abbreviation - thus preserving exact name isf possible.

2000-11-03  Mirko Viviani  <mirko.viviani@rccr.cremona.it>

	* Source/NSCalendarDate.m ([NSCalendarDate -initWithString:

		propertiesAsDictionaryWithKeyTransformationSel:
	* Source/GSXML.m: added GSXMLNode 
		propertiesAsDictionaryWithKeyTransformationSel:

	([-initWithCStringNoCopy:length:freeWhenDone:]) for NSString.

2000-10-31  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	Loads of files modified, fast.x removed.
	Found it unexpectedly easy to tidy up so that all functions for
	accessing the runtime are now in NSObjCRuntime.h.
	Now all :-) we need are Apple runtime implementations, configuration
	auto-detect for the apple runtime, and loads of updating of any
	bits of code that call the runtime directly.

2000-10-31  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Headers/gnustep/base/NSGString.h:
	* Headers/gnustep/base/NSGCString.h:

	* Source/NSObject.m:
	* Source/NSScanner.m:
	* Source/NSSerializer.m:
	* Source/NSSet.m:
	* Source/NSUnarchiver.m:
	Changed calls to 'fastClass()' to use 'GSObjCClassOfObject()' and
	added that to NSObjCRuntime.h.  Removed central class and
	implementation caching from NSObject.m and fast.x since it was not
	being effectively used.  New intention to do removal of fast.x and
	add similar functionality to NSObjCRuntime.h - intention being to
	combine functionality of fast access to the runtime, and hiding both
	GNU and Apple runtime behind a single interface.

2000-10-30  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSURLHandle.m: Wrap all locking with exception handlers to
	ensure that locks are released.

	* Source/NSRunLoop.m:
	* Source/NSScanner.m:
	* Source/NSSerializer.m:
	* Source/NSString.m:
	* Source/NSUnarchiver.m:
	* Source/NSUserDefaults.m:
	Updated to move static SEL variable initialisation to +initialize
	methods so that it should (I think) work with the Apple runtime.

2000-10-29  Adam Fedor  <fedor@gnu.org>

	* configure.in: Check for langinfo.
	* Source/GSLocale.m (GSDomainFromDefaultLocale): Return nil
	dict if langinfo info not available.

	* acconfig.h: Add HAVE_DLADDR
	* Headers/gnustep/base/config.h.in: Regenerate.
	* Source/simple-load.h (__objc_dynamic_get_symbol_path): Return
	nil if not HAVE_DLADDR.

2000-10-29  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/GSString.m: New inline string classes added to avoid calls
	to malloc in some cases.  Changed all deallocation methods to call
	NSDeallocateObject() directy for efficiency.
	* Source/NSString.m: Use new inline string classes for creation of
	strings where we know the length of the data in advaance.

2000-10-28  Mirko Viviani  <mirko.viviani@rccr.cremona.it>

	* Headers/gnustep/base/NSBundle.h: added ivar.
	* Source/NSBundle.m ([NSBundle +_addFrameworkFromClass:]): new private
	method to parse NSFramework_* classes.
	(_bundle_load_callback): added framework support. Wrap classes in a
	NSValue to avoid implicit initialization.
	([NSBundle +allBundles]): added framework support.
	([NSBundle +allFrameworks]): implemented.
	([NSBundle +bundleForClass:]): get classes from NSValue object.
	([NSBundle -classNamed:]): likewise.

	* Headers/gnustep/base/objc-load.h (LINKER_GETSYMBOL): new define.
	* Source/objc-load.m (objc_get_symbol_path): get lib path of a Class
	or Category.
	* Source/simple-load.h (__objc_dynamic_get_symbol_path): indentifies
	lib path of a symbol.
	* Source/dld-load.h (__objc_dynamic_get_symbol_path): not supported.
	* Source/hpux-load.h (__objc_dynamic_get_symbol_path): not implemented.

	added -I/usr/local/include and -L/usr/local/lib for FreeBSD.

2000-10-27  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSObject.m: Reverted last change -
        +new has to do alloc, init or break classes that expect to use their
	own allocation mechanisms.  Similarly, +alloc must call the
	([+allocWithZone:]) method.  We can't make optimisations that
	break with the OpenStep spec and MacOS documentation - they would
	break production code.  Of course, private classes can do this.

2000-10-27  Lyndon Tremblay  <humasect@home.com>

	* Source/NSObject.m ([NSObject +new]): No longer sends 2 messages,
	uses NSAllocateObject().
	([NSObject +alloc]): Likewise, no message sending within the method.

2000-10-27  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSURLHandle.m: Make class registration thread safe.
	Tidy initialisation to use designated initialiser.

	keys.
	* Source/GSLocale.m: New functions for dealing with locales.
	* Source/NSUserDefaults.m (-_unlocalizedDefaults): New method.
	(-sharedUserDefaults): Set up Language domain. 
	(-userLanguages): Create our own defaults, if necessary, to avoid
	recursion with sharedUserDefaults.
	(__createStandardSearchList): Put NSGlobalDomain before Language
	domain to match MacOSX docs (wasn't specified in OpenStep docs).
	* Documentation/gsdoc/NSUserDefaults.m: Updated.

	* Tools/locale_alias.m: New test-tool mostly for maintainance use.

2000-10-26  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSData.m: When deserialising selectors, register new
	selectors if they don't already exist - so we can unarchive a
	selector into a program where no objects implements it (we might
	still want to use it over DO or to store in another archive).
	Change suggested by N.Pero.
	* Source/GSMime.m: Mime parser classes partially written.
	* Headers/Foundation/GSMime.h: mime class headers
	* Documentation/gsdoc/GSMime.gsdoc: documentation
	* Documentation/gsdoc/GSMimeDocument.gsdoc: documentation

	* Source/NSCalendarDate.m (-initWithString:calendarFormat:locale:): 
	Set format if nil.
	(-addYear:month:day:hour:minute:second:): Use signed ints.

2000-10-24  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/GSString.m: Implement ([-substringWithRange:]) and
	([-substringFromRange:]) equally.  The 'from' method is the
	'official OpenStep' one, the 'with' method is a MacOS-X compatibility
	addition.
	* Source/NSAttributedString.m: Added ([-attributedSubstringWithRange:])
	in the expectation that Apple will rename the method and remove
	([-attributedSubstringFromRange:])
	* Source/NSScanner.m: Use substringWithRange.
	* Source/NSProxy.m: Implement ([-forward::]) to use
	([-forwardInvocation:]).  Implement ([-conformsToProtocol:]) to raise
	exception, Implement ([-respondsToSelector:]) to raise exception.
	* Source/NSDistantObject.m: Implement ([-conformsToProtocol:]) to
	forward to remote.  Implement ([-respondsToSelector:]) to forward.

2000-10-24  Fred Kiefer <FredKiefer@gmx.de>

	* Source/NSAttributedString.m: Added begin/endEditing to all
	complex methods on NSMutableAttributedString as necessary for
	NSTextStorage. 
	* Source/GSString.m: Changed all substringFromRange: to
	substringWithRange: as this is the basic method.

2000-10-23  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSString.m: ([-fastestEncoding]), ([-smallestEncoding])
	implemented to return NSUnicodeStringEncoding.  Use new string
	classes more effectively - let GSString turn itsself into either
	GSCString or GSUstring when initialised.
	Merged in code from propList.h
	* Source/GSString.m: ([-dataUsingEncoding:allowLossyConversion:])
	bugfixes for cString reported by Freed Kiefer
	Removed 'ascii' flag - more trouble than a minor optimisation is
	worth.
	Fixed transmute() to be careful about freeing old string.
	* Source/Unicode.m: encode_ustrtostr_strict() return 0 on failure.

2000-10-21  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Headers/Foundation/NSNull.h: New placeholder class.
	* Source/NSNull.m: New placeholder class.
	* Source/GNUmakefile: Build NSNull and install header.
	* Documentation/gsdoc/GNUmakefile: Build NSNull documentation
	* Documentation/gsdoc/NSNull.gsdoc: NSNull documentation

2000-10-20  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	* Source/NSString.m: ([-initWithCharacters:length:]) use
	([-initWithCStringNoCopy:length:freeWhenDone:]) if possible.
	* Source/GSString.m: Much tidying up.  Added two new concrete
	classes for substrings.
	* Source/NSCalendarDate.m: ([-initWithString:calendarFormat:locale:])
	avoid any attempt to read beyond the supplied string.

2000-10-16  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	Attempts to make sure that when members of a class cluster are encoded
	(either for archiving or for sending over DO), they are encoded as
	the abstract class hiding the other classes in the cluster - this
	should mean that (in future) changes in the private concrete classes
	used should not effect existing archives and running DO applications.

	* Source/NSGAttributedString.m: ([-setAttributes:range:])
	Fixed obscure bug - use ASSIGNCOPY rather than ASSIGN to prevent

2000-10-09  Richard Frith-Macdonald <rfm@gnu.org>

	Major rewrite of NSString.
	There was a fundamental architectural problem in the old
	implementation ...  if you had an NSGMutableCString object,
	and used any method that appends (or replaces) characters in
	that string, there was a problem in that the characters being
	added may not be representable in the default character set.

	This means that we needed the concrete mutable strring class to
	be able to mutate itsself from an 8-bit string to a 16-bit string
	when necessary (we can't just allocate a new object, because we
	have no way of returning it to the caller).

	We could not handle this simply by changing the class pointer in
	the instance (and reallocating and modifying the memory actually
	storing the characters of course).  The problem with this is that
	the method implementations of the object may have been cached in
	the user code (quite likely if you want high performance from a
	mutable string) - and subsequent use of those cached implementations
	would still try to treat the contents of the string as 8-bit characters.

	The solution adopted was to make the standard mutable string class
	contain a flag to adjust its behavior so that each method treats
	the char data as either 8 or 16 bit.
	This makes for ugly code, partially tidied by use of inline functions.

	For most of the methods implemented for the constant strings
	(rather than being inherited from the abstract class) we now
	have two inline functions for 8-bit and 16-bit implementations.
	The GSUString and GSCString objects have method implementations
	that simply called the appropriate function.  The GSMString
	implementation of each method tests the flag and calls the
	appropriate inline function.

	* Source/TcpPort.m: Removed some unused code.
	* Source/GSTcpPort.m: Added new port implementation - non-functional

	report and add thread-safety.  Modified by me to automatically use
	locking if necessary, to tidy up, and to fix a couple of bugs in
	lock/unlock sequencing.  All new stuff - but since the previous
	version was completely unusable in a multithreaded environment I
	don't think we are running any risk by adding this here.

Thu Feb 10 15:00:00 2000  Richard Frith-Macdonald <richard@brainstorm.co.uk>

	Changes to fix possible crashes where task completion notifications
	are sent at inappropriate times due to SIGCHLD.
	* Source/NSTask.m: Move signal handler code to GSChecktasks() and
	have the signal handler simply set a flag to say work needs doing.
	* Source/NSRunLoop.m: Add calls to GSCheckTasks() so that we notice
	the death of a child.

Thu Feb 10 14:13:00 2000  Richard Frith-Macdonald <richard@brainstorm.co.uk>

	* Source/UnixFileHandle.m: ([-receivedEvent:type:extra: forMode:])

	is deallocated.

Thu Feb 10  9:34:00 2000  Richard Frith-Macdonald <richard@brainstorm.co.uk>

	* Headers/gnustep/base/preface.h.in: Added tests to see if _C_LNG_LNG
	and _C_ULNG_LNG are defined in the objc compiler headers and, if not,

	Patch by David Relson <relson@expressgate.net>

2000-01-27  Adam Fedor  <fedor@gnu.org>

	* Tools/gdomap.c (init_iface): Check to see if an
	interface is up (using SIOCGIFFLAGS), and then get the address
	information before checking whether the address is in the AF_INET
	family (patch from Jonathan Gapen <jagapen@whitewater.chem.wisc.edu>).
	
Sun Jan 16  9:10:00 1999  Richard Frith-Macdonald <richard@brainstorm.co.uk>

	Moved objc-load.c to objc-load.m and filnd-exec.c to find-exec.m

Sun Jan  9 15:20:00 2000  Richard Frith-Macdonald <richard@brainstorm.co.uk>

	* Source/NSGAttributedString.m: ([-attributesAtIndex:effectiveRange:])
	fixed illegal parameter - reported by jagapen@whitewater.chem.wisc.edu

Wed Jan  5 16:22:00 2000  Richard Frith-Macdonald <richard@brainstorm.co.uk>

	* Source/NSData.m: when serializing selectors, cope with untyped
	selectors instead of crashing.

Wed Jan  5 14:37:00 2000  Richard Frith-Macdonald <richard@brainstorm.co.uk>

	* Source/NSTimeZone.m: Changed order of lookup to determine the local
	timezone:
	1. User defaults with key 'Local Time Zone'
	2. GNUSTEP_TZ environment variable
	3. $GNUSTEP_SYSTEM_ROOT/Libraries/Resources/NSTimeZones/localtime
	4. TZ environment variable
	5. Use UTC
	This means that the TZ environment variable can now safely be used for
	non-GNUstep timezones as long as GNUSTEP_TZ is defined (or a localtime)
	file exists.

Wed Jan  5 10:00:00 2000  Richard Frith-Macdonald <richard@brainstorm.co.uk>

	* NSTimeZones/NSTimeZones.tar: Made a revised set of timezones with
	timezone names offset from GMT corresponding to common usage
	(as in OPENSTEP) rather than strict Posix interpretation.
	Also added detailed instructions to the README file and added a
	small makefile to build the abbreviations/regions tools.

Tue Jan  4 22:40:00 2000  Richard Frith-Macdonald <richard@brainstorm.co.uk>

	* Source/NSCalendarDate.m: ([-yearOfCommonEra]) fix rounding error.

Tue Dec 21 13:27:00 1999  Richard Frith-Macdonald <richard@brainstorm.co.uk>

	Fixes suggested by karl@nfox.com
	* Source/propList.h: Bugfix parsing larger lists.
	* Source/NSProcessInfo.m: Avoid use of freopen()
	* Source/GSeq.h: for ranges not found, return NSNotFound as the
	location rather than 0 - for compatibility with Apple.
	* NSDeserializer.m: Return nil if given nil data or an object that
	is not a data object.

1999-12-19  David Lazaro  <khelekir@encomix.es>

	* configure.in (objc_thread_lib): Added support for FreeBSD native
	POSIX threads (from the reentrant C library, libc_r).  Made this the
	first option to test as this is the best working one.
	* configure: New build to support the above mentioned.

Fri Dec 17 17:55:00 1999  Richard Frith-Macdonald <richard@brainstorm.co.uk>

	to permit setting attributes on an empty string (as a no-op).

Wed Dec 15 18:50:00 1999  Richard Frith-Macdonald <richard@brainstorm.co.uk>

	* Source/NSHost.m: Update again - record current host name for duration
	of process and cache hosts keyed on the name under which they were
	created.  This can result in multiple cache entries for the same host,
	but this seems to be necessary as DNS name <--> address mappings can
	be asymmetric.
	Thanks to dan@services.iiruc.ro for pointing this out.

Wed Dec 15 17:30:00 1999  Richard Frith-Macdonald <richard@brainstorm.co.uk>

	and hack.
	([+timeZoneWithName:]) Fixed bug in loading timezone data file (unusual
	formats could cause a crash).
	* Source/NSScanner.m: ([-initWithString:]) fix to handle being passed
	a nil string (use an empty string and log an error).
	* NSTimeZones/NSTimeZones.tar: updated to latest info and made sure
	files are in the correct place.

Mon Dec 13 13:31:00 1999  Chris Ball <cball@fmco.com>

	* Source/NSTimeZone.m: Replaced the original, correct comment and
		removed Richard's replacement incorrect comment.

Fri Dec  9 17:00:00 1999  Chris Ball <cball@fmco.com>

	Sorry, I did a commit one directory to deep.

		on removal.  This causes real problems on SMP machines.
	* Source/NSGarray.m
	* Source/NSCalendarDate.m: DateByAddingYears lost timeZone info.
		InitWithString didn't deal with adjacent format specifiers.
	* Source/NSDate.m: addTimeInterval messed up timeZone if used with
		calendarDate
	* Source/NSLock.m: Trylock was broken and lockBeforeDate was 
		unimplemented
	* Source/NSObject.m: The release code was broken for SMP machine use.
	* Source/NSTimeZone.m: The GMT+-** files are in the root directory on
		OpenStep and are in Etc/ on GNUstep so check both.

Mon Dec 13 12:20:00 1999  Richard Frith-Macdonald <richard@brainstorm.co.uk>

	Fixes for cball's changes (who is cball?, and why didn't s/he produce
	a ChangeLog entry or conform to GNU indentation?  It took me hours to
	tidy this up).
	* Source/NSDate.m: ([NSGDate -addTimeInterval:]) removed bogus
	implementation of method (inherits from NSDate).
	* Source/NSCalendarDate.m: Added implementation of ([-addTimeInterval:])
	with specific code for NSCalendarDate.  Reformatted code to GNUstep
	style.
	* Source/NSGArray.m: ([-removeObjectIdenticalTo:]) and
	([-removeObjectIdenticalTo:inRange:]) reverted to correct code.
	([-removeObject:]) and ([-removeObjectIdenticalTo:inRange:]) removed
	changes and added fixes so that methods are safe where multiple objects
	equal to the object to be removed are present in the array.
	* Source/NSArray.m: Similar fixes for object removal.
	* Source/NSObject.m: Rewritten mutex code so that mutexes are not used
	for retain/release unless the app is multi-threaded.

Wed Dec  1 19:36:00 1999  Richard Frith-Macdonald <richard@brainstorm.co.uk>

	* Source/NSArray.m: When sorting, treat illegal return values from the

	data is availabvle on a comms channel - as per spec.  This bug was
	also reported by Dan <dan@services.iirux.ro>
	* Source/NSHost.m: Use inet_aton() if available.

1999-11-18  Adam Fedor  <fedor@gnu.org>

Sun Nov  7 14:04:00 1999  Richard Frith-Macdonald <richard@brainstorm.co.uk>

	* Source/o_vscanf.c Reverted to earlier version - the last fix was
	causing distributed objects to fail!  I don't know why, but DO seems
	more important than the bugfix - so, pending a rewrite of DO
	encoding/decoding to remove the dependency on the old stream code,
	we need to leave this as it is.

1999-11-09  Adam Fedor  <fedor@gnu.org>

	* Source/o_vscanf.c (o_vscanf): Don't count '\n' as whitespace.

	* Source/NSObject.m: added FreeBSD specific code in
	initialization so that the FPU is intialized with the correct
	exception flag. This allows NSConnection to work on FreeBSD (gdnc,
	gdomap, gpbs.)

Thu Nov  4 10:52:00 1999  Richard Frith-Macdonald <richard@brainstorm.co.uk>

	* Source/NSArray.m: use NSLog() to warn about attempts to remove nil.

Tue Sep 12 14:00:00 1999  Richard Frith-Macdonald <richard@brainstorm.co.uk>

	* Source/NSConnection.m: Removed pointer cross-reference support as it
	provided little performance improvement and was responsible for a few
	bugs I've never been able to track down, and major problems if the maps
	at either end of the link get out of sync (which is unavoidable in some
	rare circumstances).
	* Headers/Foundation/NSConnection.h: Removed cross-reference maps
	* Source/ConnectedCoder.m: Removed pointer cross-reference support
	* Source/NSPortCoder.m: Removed pointer cross-reference support

	* src/o_map.m:  Don't use o_map_key_callbacks() - access the field
	in the structure directly to avoid the function-call overhead as this
	function was being called LOTS of times.  Only a tiny performance
	improvement - but every little helps.

	* Tools/gdomap.m: Modified code so that we make sure we have at least
	one valid route to any gdomap process which has probed us.  This is
	to cope with machines which send out info about all their interfaces
	when one or more of the interfaces is not working.

	* src/checks/nstask.m: added test for environment setting.

	* src/NSCalendarDate.m: Fixed bug in initialisation where daylight
	savings time is in operation - was adjusting in wrong direction.

	* src/NSRunLoop.m: Added NSObject catagory for the methods -
	([NSObject +cancelPreviousPerformRequestsWithTarget:selector:object:]),
	([NSObject -performSelector:withObject:afterDelay:]), and
	([NSObject -performSelector:withObject:afterDelay:inModes:])

	* src/NSTask.m: Various bug fixes as a result of running the test
 	suite.  All seems to work ok now.

	* src/NSDate.h: Changed order of declaractions so this can be included
	within NSObject.h

	* src/NSObject.h: Added run-loop integration methods -
	([NSObject +cancelPreviousPerformRequestsWithTarget:selector:object:]),
	([NSObject -performSelector:withObject:afterDelay:]), and
	([NSObject -performSelector:withObject:afterDelay:inModes:])
	
	* src/NSRunLoop.h: Added an instance variable to keep track of
	queued delayed actions to be performed on objects.

	for indicator functions.
	* configure: Regenerate.

	* checks/GNUmakefile (LoadMe_RESOURCE_FILES): Changed name.

	* doc/gnustep-howto.tmpl.texi: Update.
	* doc/status.tmpl.texi: Likewise.

Wed Mar 11 11:56:00 1998  Richard Frith-Macdonald  <richard@brainstorm.co.uk>

	* src/NSArray.m: ([-copyWithZone:]) changed to use the
	NSShouldRetainWithZone() function.

	* src/NSCalendarDate.m: ([-dealloc]) don't release the timezone -
	we never retain it anyway (should we?)
	([-setCalendarFormat:]) make a copy of the string we are given in
	case it gets changed or deleted.

	* src/NSConcreteNumber.m: ([-copyWithZone:]) fixed to use the
	NSShouldRetainWithZone() function.

	* src/NSData.m: ([-copyWithZone:]) fixed to use the
	NSShouldRetainWithZone() function.

	* src/TcpPort.m: Commented out unnecessary warning message.

	* src/NSTimeZone.m: Modified ([-encodeWithCoder:]) and
	([-awakeAfterUsingCoder:]) so that the local timezone is encoded
	specially and is restored as whatever the local timezone of the
	restoring application is.

	* src/NSValue.m: Added ([-copy]) and ([-isEqualToValue:])

Tue Mar 10 17:05:00 1998  Richard Frith-Macdonald  <richard@brainstorm.co.uk>

	* src/NSArray.m: ([-copyWithZone:]) rewritten to avoid doing
	unnecessary copy of non-mutable objects and to fix memory leak.

	implemented.

	* src/NSCalendarDate.m: ([-initWithCoder:]) and ([-encodeWithCoder:])
	implemented.

	* src/NSConcreteNumber.m: ([-copy]) and ([-copyWithZone:])
	implemented to do simple retains.
