CHANGELOG

1.6.3

Add hashmap_foreach utility function to call a function for each value in a hashmap

1.6.2

Make radixsort have a dynamic index type based on max size during initialization. Returned
data type from radixsort_sort should be cast to the correct type (uint16_t or uint32_t) based
on sort context indextype (RADIXSORT_INDEX16 or RADIXSORT_INDEX32 respectively)

Use clang format for automatic source formatting (many whitespace changes), and rename
"num" variables and arguments to "count" for counting items/things, and "size" for byte
size of things.

Add a bucketized array for lower cost growing for large arrays

Add function to query if a thread has finished execution (thread_is_finished)

Added macro for more readable uuid constant declarations (uuid_decl)

Buffer stream path now includes address for end of buffer

Added a compressed flag to stream flag bitfield

Updated ninja build script to support Visual Studio 2022


1.6.1

Add uuidmap for mapping UUIDs to pointer values

Added fs_matching_subdirs and fs_matching_subdirs_regex for finding matching subdirectories

Change object map to use external ID and ref count representation for object, allowing
pointers to any type to be stored in map. Rename the objectmap_lookup_ref and objectmap_lookup_unref
to better named objectmap_acquire and objectmap_release

Rename library_unload to library_release to match object map function naming

Bugfix on macOS/iOS where main thread did not properly initialize memory subsystem if
other than the default system was used

Add thread_is_entered to query if thread_enter has been called on the calling thread

Bugfix in macOS file system watcher, correctly bootstrapping thread memory handling for cleanup
if needed

Fix path_base_file_name to return name up to last dot in filename, not first dot. A file
"path/to/foo.bar.ext" will thus return "foo.bar" instead of "foo"


1.6.0

Use pthread_exit to terminate threads on POSIX for compatibility with libs overriding
pthread_exit or using pthread_cleanup_push.

Add thread_enter and memory_thread_initialize to provide optional entry points for
memory system per-thread initialization.

Add hint flags to memory reallocation to optionally avoid copying to preserve old content.

Make memory reallocation respect 32bit flag and fall back to alloc and copy.

Fix parsing of negative numbers in JSON/SJSON parser.

Unify macOS/iOS delegate_nswindow and delegate_uiwindow functions to delegate_window.

Support using SetThreadDescription (if present) to set thread name on Windows.

Change MacOSX platform names and identifiers to macOS (FOUNDATION_PLATFORM_MACOS).

Fix race condition in ring buffer streams read/write.

Use C11 atomics for all compilers (except Microsoft) instead of builtin or own implementations.
Add memory ordering to all atomic entry points.

semaphore_initialize and semaphore_initialize_named now return boolean success/fail indicator

Change object map to use semaphore for write operation instead of atomics. Also change
object map index to 32 bit, and object_t type to 32 bit.

Add a mock system to tests to simulate failing system calls.

Remove flag to memory allocation to allocate in low 32-bit address range on 64-bit systems.


1.5.3

Added thread finalizer to memory system to clean up resources on thread exit.

Use built in thread local storage introduced in XCode 8 on Apple platforms.

Fixed race condition in default memory tracker implementation of deallocation tracking.

Fixed error_context_buffer to always return string without trailing whitespace.

Change macOS implementation of unnamed semaphore to use GCD dispatch_semaphore instead
of deprecated MPCreateSemaphore

Bumped iOS default target to 9.0 and changed system_message_box to use UIAlertController

Bump Visual Studio projects to 2017

Moved Android jar signing in ninja builds to separate codesign script to unify with
iOS/macOS and to allow secrets to be stored in separate private codesign JSON


1.5.2

Unified adding remote sources as input to a beacon. The add/remove functions of a beacon
are now named beacon_add_<type> and beacon_remove_<type>. All platforms can add/remove
a remote beacon source. Windows and Posix targets can add/remove file descriptors. Windows
can also add/remove a OS handle.

Changed pipe to always provide a file descriptor, and renamed function to
pipe_read_fd/pipe_write_fd to match new beacon function naming. Windows platform still
has pipe_read_handle/pipe_write_handle to access the OS handles.

Fix an uninitialized variable in event streams causing beacon to not be fired before first
process to event_steam_process on the event stream.

Change path_clean to always uppercase Windows drive letters.

Add stderr to process standard streams interface.

Fix time_system on Apple platforms to return time since Epoch like other platforms.


1.5.1

Added string utility functions for converting from/to 256 and 512 bit unsigned int.
Fixed function for converting string to 128-bit unsigned int to correctly parse
strings shorter than 32 characters.

Added stream utility functions for reading/writing 256 and 512 bit unsigned int.

Added stream utility functions for calculating 256 and 512 bit SHA-2 digests (line ending
agnostic as stream_md5 function).

Clarified byte order of 256/512 bit integer representation, and fixed documentation.

Changed json_handler_fn to take source path arguments to let handler deal with
relative paths in json data.

Rename fs_post_event to fs_event_post for naming consistency, added fs_event_path
function to get file path from a file event.

Added event handler to test suite declaration.

Changed string_to_uuid to only convert fully convertible strings (no partial conversion)

Added stream_copy to copy content of one stream to another.

Added stream_read_uuid and stream_write_uuid to read/write UUID values from/to stream

Added stream_write_separator and stream_skip_whitespace to conditionally write a
separator and skip whitespace based on text/binary mode.


1.5.0

Added a minimal in-place JSON parser. Also parses simplified JSON.

Added implementation SHA-2 256 and 512 bit algorithms, including uint256_t and uint512_t
representation data types with string conversions.

Removed configuration repository since it is mostly replaced by JSON parser.

Changed byte order representation of raw digest from md5_get_digest_raw to generate
correct string representation using string_from_uint128.

Changed environment_home_directory to environment_application_directory and modify
implementations to generate a application-specific path for persistent storage. Removed
application config_dir declaration.

Changed crash_* functions to more aptly named exception_* and added support for
non-Microsoft compilers on Windows.

Changed name of error callback and log callback to "handler" to unify naming with
exception handling.

Support for building as a shared object (dynamic library).

Support for Intel, clang and gcc compilers on Windows.

Android build now requires NDK r11 and uses clang by default, with built in
thread local storage support instead of old pthread api wrappers.

Refactored the ninja build generator into modules to be easier to extend and maintain
instead of a single monolithic file. Minor changes in generator interface. Build only
x86-64 target on Windows by default (x86 still supported).


1.4.1

Thread API change. Threads are now explicit structures instead of reference counted
resources. Thread notification changed to a signal beacon. Finalizing a thread will
join the thread and free resources.

Added beacon, a compound synchronization primitive unifying WaitForMultipleObjects
and epoll in a platform abstraction interface. Extended event streams to be able to
fire a beacon on event post.

path_directory_name now preserves protocols, path_subdirectory_name changed into
path_subpath which matches protocols and returns subpaths instead of subdirectories.


1.4.0

Major API changes, 1.4.x is not in any way compatible with previous releases.

All string APIs and functions taking string arguments have been extended to take and supply
an explicit length argument/result, in order to avoid extra strlen calls to determine an
already known length. All length arguments are explicit, zero no longer implicitly mean
length of zero-terminated string passed in pointer. Pointer is assumed to be valid if length
is non-zero, no additional null pointer checks are done.

Path and string functions no longer automagically reallocate passed arguments. Functions
now exist in two flavours, one acting on a passed buffer (best effort) and one allocating
a new buffer.

Size of buffers and objects are now denoted by size_t type arguments, not unsigned int.

Functions returning arrays as result now generally take a preallocated array of given size
as argument to avoid extra memory allocations.

Build time size limit configuration in build.h have been moved to a run time configuration
block passed to foundation_initialize.

All shutdown functions have been renamed to finalize to better match the initialize function
naming scheme.

system_* functions returning strings now take a buffer argument for thread safety. Returned
string will be in supplied buffer.
