* utils/hbmk/hbmk.prg
+ Added TODO
% Added ANNOUNCE HB_GTSYS / REQUEST HB_GT_STD_DEFAULT.
Since this tools doesn't need anything fullscreen, and
this way it's faster smaller, yet portable.
* ChangeLog
* Few old TODO/TOFIX statuses updated.
* utils/hbmk/hbmk.prg
+ Added -strip/nostrip switch and implemented for GCC/GPP.
+ Added -trace switch to see executed commands.
+ Added negative switches: -std, -st, -nodebug
+ Added detection whether Harbour is installed in default system
locations on *NIX systems. If it is, turn on shared libraries
by default for all *NIX systems.
+ Added support for GT selection with -gt??? switch.
(using .prg method, not .c as in hbmk bash script)
+ Added support for linux/gpp.
; NOTE: Some things still missing:
- details of *NIX stuff, systems libs, switches,
etc, etc.
- -fullstatic not yet supported.
- fmstat/nofmstat. It would be good to find a
more easily manageable way to influence that.
Current one is make system dependent and a bit hackish.
- handling 3rd party libs. These should be supported
by supplying proper parameter, and we can provide
example scripts for these libs. Hard-wiring them
into core Harbour is quite dangerous.
- "MAIN" function override. I'd rather leave this out,
and clear up the situation with entry procs.
- gtsln and gtcrs support.
- Watcom, OS/2, *NIX not tested.
- Built-in support for our contribs. For clear
separation of components contribs shouldn't be
referred to in this core component.
- Filtering foreign system libs passed on the command
line for platforms not needing them. The goal is to
be able to use as simple and _portable_ hbmk command
lines as possible.
- Support for POCC, DM.
; TODO:
- Switch to portable command lines in hbmk.bat files.
(Win9x will be supported again).
- Remove bin/hbmk*.bat, bin/hbmk*.cmd, util/hbmake/*.
- Cleanup on variable names in hbmk.prg.
* tests/testid.prg
* Minor cleanup.
* include/hbextern.ch
* source/rtl/seconds.c
+ implemented hb_milliseconds(). This function returns time value
from some moment in the past (not midnigth!). It does not start
to cound from zero in midnight, thus, can be safetly used to
measure time intervals.
+ tests/ticktime.c
+ Added nice test for hb_milliseconds().
Results on WinXP:
Ticks per second: 63.595
Min/avg/max interval (ms): 15.000 / 15.724 / 47.000
Loops per tick: 13035.09
Results on openSUSE on VirtualBox on WinXP:
Ticks per second: 384306.138

* harbour/doc/cmpopt.txt
* small cleanup
* harbour/include/hbvmpub.h
* harbour/source/vm/hvm.c
% some optimizations mostly for MT mode or compilers which do
not support function autoinline optimization
* harbour/include/hbsetup.h
* temporary disabled noreturn function attributes - we have some
code which puts references to some functions after hb_errInternal()
call to force link bindings which is fully optimized if hb_errInternal
is declared with noreturn attribute so we cannot use it as long as we
will not clean them.
* harbour/tests/speedtst.prg
* build default xHarbour binaries without support.
xHarbour needs separated version for MT and ST mode
because standard MT functions are not available in
ST libraries.
* source/common/hbverdsp.c
* Streamlined the /build information screen. It's now
more compact and now show if tracing is enabled. Max
symbol length got removed, ANSI C startup also, because
it needs a custom C flag anyway.
* include/hbvmpub.h
* include/hbsetup.h
* HB_SYMBOL_NAME_LEN moved away from custom setup.
This isn't an option users should normally tinker.

// Reconfigure browser/your screen accordingly
endif
* harbour/source/rtl/gtxwc/gtxwc.c
* added hack for problems with some XLIB versions in heavy stress
MT tests
* harbour/include/hbapigt.h
* harbour/source/vm/thread.c
* added parameter to hb_gtAlloc() C function
* harbour/include/hbapigt.h
* harbour/source/rtl/hbgtcore.c
+ added hb_gtCreate() and hb_gtSwap() C functions
+ added new .prg functions:
HB_GTCREATE( <cGtName> ) -> <pGT>
HB_GTSELECT( <pGT> ) -> <pPrevGT>
Using this functions is possible to create many console window
if GT supports such possibilities (f.e. GTXWC or GTWVT) even in
single thread programs and switch between them.
* harbour/source/rtl/box.c
! fixed one of recent DISPBOX() modifications - it should use:
hb_gtBoxEx() instead of hb_gtDrawBox() to set cursor position.
+ harbour/tests/gtwin.prg
+ added demonstration/test code for using more then one console window
also in single thread programs.
* tests/rto_get.prg
+ Added tests for assigments as function calls (o:col( 10 )
and some for assigments as _function calls (o:_col( 10 )).
* bin/hbmk.bat
* make_vc.mak
- Removed /subsystem:console from LDFLAGS. This seems to
be the default so it's not necessary.
* bin/hbmk.bat
+ Added L_USR support for MSVC. Now it's possible to
build GUI (and GTWVT) programs using
'set L_USR=/subsystem:WINDOWS' switch.
* contrib/gtwvg/tests/bld_vc.bat
! Using above method to make it work with MSVC.
* harbour/tests/wvtext.prg
Updated to demonstrate multi-windows GT capabilities.
A REMINDER : This development alone places Harbour much higher than
so many dialects. Mind-blowing feature. I had ever longed
for this functionality since I started with Xbase++.
But the ease of use of a MW-GT in Harbour is far superior
than in Xbase++. Spread this word. I am sure this feature
alone is going to add a handsome value to my applications.
I hope you all will be benefitted.
I have no word of appreciation for Przemyslaw Czerpak as
whatever I will say will fall short of weight. So...
* harbour/include/hbstack.h
* harbour/include/hbgtcore.h
* harbour/include/hbthread.h
* harbour/include/hbapigt.h
* harbour/source/vm/estack.c
* harbour/source/vm/hvm.c
* harbour/source/vm/thread.c
* harbour/source/rtl/hbgtcore.c
+ added support for optional allocating independent console window by
each thread. By default new thread inherits console Window from
parent thread. But each thread can allocate its own console window
by calling hb_gtReload( <cGtName> ) function, f.e. by:
hb_gtReload( hb_gtVersion() )
If GT driver supports such functionality then new it will allocate
new console windows.
Each console window has reference counter which is increased when
new thread starts and decreased when hb_gtReload() is executed or
thread terminates. When counter reach zero give console window is
destroyed.
* harbour/source/rtl/gtwvt/gtwvt.c
! use SendNotifyMessage() instead of SendMessage() to not block
threads which inherited GT from parent thread. Why non of MS-Win
users reported this problem?
+ added reference counter to window class for multi GT support
+ harbour/tests/mt/mttest10.prg
+ added demonstration/test code for using independent console window
in different threads. It needs GT driver which supports such
functionality, f.e GTXWC in *nixes or GTWVT in MS-Windows
* harbour/tests/mt/mttest09.prg
! fixed typo in comment
* harbour/source/vm/runner.c
* harbour/source/vm/codebloc.c
* harbour/source/vm/itemapi.c
* minor casting modification
* harbour/tests/speedtst.prg
* added workaround for timeout parameter not working in xHb Subscribe()
when 3-rd parameter is passed
* harbour/tests/speedtst.prg
* marked T054 as memory tests
* harbour/source/vm/hvm.c
* harbour/source/vm/thread.c
* added hb_threadOnce( @<onceControl> [, <bAction> ] ) -> <lFirstCall>
This function allow to execute some code only once. It's usefull in
MT environment for initialization.
<onceControl> is variable which holds the execution status and have
to be initialized to NIL. In most of cases it will be simple static
variable in user code.
<bAction> is optional codeblock which is executed only once (on 1-st
call with given <onceControl>)
* harbour/source/rtl/filesys.c
! do not make any file name conversions in hb_fsNameConv() if HVM stack
is not allocated
* harbour/source/rtl/gtcrs/gtcrs.c
* casting
* harbour/tests/speedtst.prg
+ added support for --scale switch - it enables special mode
which compare scalability, f.e.:
./speedtst --thread=4 --scale
executes each test loop 4 times by single thread then
by 4 simultaneous threads, counts total real times in both
cases and presents them with the scale factor.
Please note that exactly the same loop tests are executed
simultaneously so this test should well show all places which
are not well scalable.
This test allows me to locate yet another memory variable written by
each thread on each function call just like uiPolls in main HVM loop.
It's s_bDebugging which is not used in MT mode because we do not have
any MT debugger yet but is was effectively killing the scalability
in my hardware.
If possible I would like to see some Windows results from multi CPU
machine with --scale parameter, f.e.:
speedtst --thread=8 --scale > speedtst.log
Please make some tests.
* harbour/source/vm/hvm.c
% do not assign s_bDebugging in hb_vmDo()/hb_vmSend() when debugger
is not linked
* harbour/source/vm/garbage.c
% enabled spinlocks in all x86 GCC builds
* harbour/tests/speedtst.prg
+ added support for multiple usage of --exclude parameter
+ added support for --thread[=<num>] parameter which allows to set how
many threads will be used to execute speed test. When =<num> is not
given then each test loop is executed by separate thread, f.e.:
./speedtst --thread=3
Now you can make tests looking for optimal for your system values.
Please only remember that the total results shown by speedtst
can be highly bound with the most expensive test loop which is
finished only on one CPU
+ added support for --only=<testnums,...> parameter which allows to
chose requested tests
+ added restricted parameter validation and syntax info
* harbour/source/vm/fm.c
! do not build DL-MM when HB_FM_WIN32_ALLOC is set
* harbour/tests/speedtst.prg
+ added support for --exclude=<tests,...> option to exclude some tests,
f.e.:
./speetest --exclude=029.030.023.025.027.040.041.043.052.053.019.022.031.032
disables all tests which allocates memory. The same tests can be also
excluded by --exclude=mem
- harbour/tests/speedtst.prg
+ harbour/tests/speedold.prg
* renamed old speed test - I left it because some other xbase compiler
cannot compiple the new one due to not Clipper compatible PP
+ harbour/tests/speedtst.prg
* added new speed test which can also measure mutlithread performance.
When linked with MT HVM version then it can be executed with optional
parameter which causes that each test loop is executed by separate
thread. Please make such tests on different platforms.
* harbour/include/hbstack.h
% enable assembler inline function to access HVM thread stack pointer
without native compiler TLS support even if HB_STACK_PRELOAD is not
defined in MinGW builds. It gives some additional small speed
improvement in MT mode
* harbour/source/rtl/idle.c
* unlock HVM inside hb_releaseCPU() function
* harbour/contrib/hbwin/win_ole.c
! fixed casting and C++ compilation in some compilers
* harbour/include/Makefile
+ harbour/contrib/examples/rdddbt/hbrdddbt.h
- harbour/include/hbrdddbt.h
! moved hbrdddbt.h to correct location
* harbour/include/Makefile

* harbour/tests/rddtest/rddtst.prg
* harbour/tests/rddtest/cdxcl53.prg
! fixed description in header I wrongly copied without updating
from other files
+ harbour/tests/hsxtest.prg
+ added test code for HiPer-SEEK indexes
* harbour/source/rtl/filesys.c
+ added new functions: hb_fsExtName(), hb_fsReadAt(), hb_fsWriteAt(),
hb_fsTruncAt() to use with shared file handles.
Please test it in other *nixes. I used pread[64]()/pwrite[64]()
POSIX functions but I do not know if they are available by default
in other supported platforms like MacOSX, BSD, HPUX, SunOS.
If not they I will have to implement some workaround.
* harbour/common.mak
* harbour/source/rtl/Makefile
* harbour/include/hbapifs.h
+ harbour/source/rtl/filebuf.c
+ added set of new file functions (hb_file*()) which are designed to
use with shared file handles and locks (buffers in the future):
hb_fileExtOpen(), hb_fileCreateTemp(), hb_fileClose(), hb_fileLock(),
hb_fileReadAt(), hb_fileWriteAt(), hb_fileTruncAt(), hb_fileSize(),
hb_fileCommit(), hb_fileHandle()
These functions operate on PHB_FILE structure instead of HB_FHANDLE.
Now in POSIX systems they share file handle between aliased or
simultaneously open by other thread work areas. It resolves the
problem with releasing all process FCNTL locks by any close()
operation even on duplicated or open() separately handle.
Now DOS deny flags emulation works in single process even if
BSD locks are disabled (non Linux *nixes).
They also keep internal file lock list what allows to synchronize
threads and aliases with file locks in POSIX systems. In the future
it will be used also for internal locking to synchronize threads
without OS level locks - pseudo exclusive mode in cloned WA.
Finally these structures will be used also for file buffers
which will be shared between aliased WA and threads.

work areas
* harbour/include/hbvm.h
* harbour/include/hbthread.h
* harbour/source/vm/hvm.c
* harbour/source/vm/thread.c
+ added hb_vmThreadRegister() funtion which allows to register new
thread in HVM without HVM stack allocation
+ added hb_vmThreadRelease() which removes registered thread which
does not have allocated HVM stack yet
+ added hb_threadStateNew() which returns new thread control state
which can be used as parameter to hb_vmThreadInit(),
hb_vmThreadRegister(), hb_vmThreadRelease()
* register thread control state also for main thread
Now hb_threadSelf() returns thread pointer also for main thread
! fixed possible race condition in hb_threadWaitForAll() and
hb_threadTerminateAll() by using hb_vmThreadRegister() before
starting thread.
* harbour/source/rtl/idle.c

chance - want to change the default GT at Harbour build-time.
* tests/speedtst.prg
! Fixed to delete temp .dbf files before exiting.
* tests/memtst.prg
+ Added #include "simpleio.ch" to allow output redirection.
* bin/bld.bat
