	object type.

	* HACKING: minor update to the gcc version number.

2002-03-04  Rhys Weatherley  <rweather@southern-storm.com.au>

	* doc/pnettools.texi, image/image.h, image/java_loader.c,
	image/member.c, include/il_program.h: handle mangled types
	in field and method signatures; implement "ILMethodGetCode"

	* codegen/cg_library.c, codegen/cg_output.c, cscc/cs_gather.c:
	add support for "volatile" fields.

2002-01-11  Rhys Weatherley  <rweather@southern-storm.com.au>

	* cscc/cs_gather.c (CreateMethod, CreateProperty, CreateMembers):
	add the "specialname" property to the "get" and "set" accessor
	methods for a property.

	* codegen/jv_lvalue.tc, codegen/jv_output.c, codegen/jv_output.h:
	implement field access node types for JVM bytecode output.

	* codegen/jv_decls.tc, codegen/jv_lvalue.tc: implement "get" and
	"set" property accessors for JVM bytecode output.

	* codegen/jv_output.c (JavaGenNewArray): implement missing function.

	* codegen/cg_cast.tc, codegen/jv_cast.tc: implement the "String"
	to "Object" cast as a NOP.

	* image/types.c (ILTypeIsStringClass, ILTypeIsObjectClass):
	resolve the class type before testing it, to handle cross-image
	links correctly.

	* codegen/cg_output.c, codegen/jv_output.c, cscc/cs_lvalue.tc:
	expand constant fields inline into method code.

2002-01-10  Rhys Weatherley  <rweather@southern-storm.com.au>

	* cscc/cs_decls.tc (AddConstantValue): decimal attribute values
	were missing the trailing field/property count.

	* configure.in, engine/cvm.c, engine/lib_math.c,
	include/il_config.h.in, support/test_float.c: include the <ieeefp.h>
	header file on systems that have it; needed on Solaris 8 to define
	the "finite" function.

	* engine/lib_misc.c: remove the "IsLittleEndian" function, because
	it isn't actually used anywhere.

	* engine/cvm_dasm.c (CVMReadPointer): Solaris 8 was complaining
	about casting integers to pointers of different sizes; inserted
	an extra cast to "ILNativeUInt" to remove the problem.

	* image/pecoff_loader.c (ILImageLoad): do not update the "minAddress"
	and "maxAddress" values if the size of a section is zero; some
	files use a zero-size section with a zero base address, which messes
	up the address checks further along in the load process.

2002-01-09  Rhys Weatherley  <rweather@southern-storm.com.au>

	* engine/lib_string.c, engine/lib_type.c, ilasm/ilasm_grammar.y,

	the handling of hexadecimal and octal character constants.

	* cscc/cs_scanner.l: bug fix to parse verbatim string literals
	correctly.

	* cscc/cs_scanner.l (ParseLitString): don't use "ParseEncodedChar"
	if the code point is less than 0x80.

	* cscc/cs_preproc.c: rearrange the pre-processing condition
	grammar to match the latest C# specification; don't do short-cut
	evaluation for "&&" and "||" because it leads to parse errors.

	* cscc/cs_preproc.c (ParseIdentifier): inverted test when checking
	for identifier start characters.

	* cscc/cs_preproc.c (ParsePrimaryExpression): bug fix - (E) should
	be applied to "or expressions", not "equality expressions".

	* cscc/cs_preproc.c (RefillLineBuffer): don't process directives
	if they are in a suppressed #if block; fix the display of error
	and warning messages so we don't get "error: error" and
	"warning: warning".

	* doc/pnettools.texi: document differences in behaviour between what
	cscc accepts and what the C# standard defines.

	* cscc/cs_preproc.c (GetLines): abort recognition of a string quoted
	with "'" when the end of line is reached.

2002-01-08  Rhys Weatherley  <rweather@southern-storm.com.au>

	* cscc/cs_cast.tc, cscc/cs_lvalue.tc, cscc/cs_oper.tc,
	cscc/cs_stmt.tc: add "TODO" to items that are outstanding,
	to make it easier to re-find them later.

	* cscc/.cvsignore: add "csdoc" to the ignore file.

	* cscc/cs_scanner.l: remove high-bit characters from IDALPHA because
	it causes lock-ups in the identifier handling.

	* cscc/cs_scanner.l: remove the '@' from the front of a quoted
	keyword that is being used as an identifier.

	* cscc/cs_scanner.l: recognise Unicode character categories in
	identifiers when '\uHHHH' escapes are used.

	* cscc/cs_grammar.y, cscc/cs_internal.h, cscc/cs_modifiers.cs,
	cscc/cs_scanner.l: add the "volatile" keyword to the lexer and parser.

	* cscc/cs_decls.tc (FieldDeclaration): check the type of an
	initialization expression against the type of the field.

	* cscc/cs_decls.tc (AddConstantValue): boolean constants were
	being created incorrectly.

	from the "args" array was being indexed during signature checking.

	* codegen/cg_library.c: add the "DecimalConstantAttribute" class
	to the builtin library.

	* cscc/cs_decls.tc (AddConstantValue): attach an attribute to fields
	that have constants of type "Decimal".

	* cscc/cs_decls.tc (AddConstantValue): bug fix - use "0x80" for the
	negative sign indicator, instead of "0x01".

	* include/il_utils.h, support/Makefile.am, support/utf8.c,
	support/utf16.c: implement more helper functions for the
	UTF-8 and UTF-16 encodings.

	* include/il_utils.h, support/utf16.c: only return the length
	if NULL is supplied to the write functions.

2002-01-07  Rhys Weatherley  <rweather@southern-storm.com.au>

	* configure.in, NEWS: update for "0.2.8" release.

	* configure.in: update the working version to "0.2.9".

2001-12-29  Rhys Weatherley  <rweather@southern-storm.com.au>

	* include/il_values.h: modify "_IL_READ_BYTE" and "_IL_READ_BYTE_SHIFT"
	to explicitly cast the pointer to "ILUInt8 *" first, because some
	parts of the code use "void *" instead of "unsigned char *", which
	causes problems with some versions of gcc.

	* engine/cvm.c (ReadPointer): try to make the code sensitive to
	32-bit vs 64-bit system differences.

2001-12-28  Rhys Weatherley  <rweather@southern-storm.com.au>

	between an assembly and the ECMA specification, suitable for
	automated processing by other tools.

	* samples/README.mscorlib: add an explaination of where the
	"mscorlib.dll" file came from.

	* samples/mscorlib.dll: new version with "[TODO]" attributes
	tagging everything that is incomplete.

	* csdoc/status.dtd: document the "summary" element.

2001-12-18  Rhys Weatherley  <rweather@southern-storm.com.au>

	* engine/call.c (CallMethod, CallMethodV): throw a "missing method"
	exception when the bytecode verifier fails.

	exception had been thrown if "Main" returned a non-zero value.

	* samples/mscorlib.dll: new version with the recent pnetlib changes.

	* engine/lib_string.c: temporarily disable the default encoding
	because it doesn't work yet.

	* engine/lib_type.c (_ILGetClrType): lay out the class before
	converting it into an object.

	* engine/lib_type.c (_ILGetClrType): bug fix - reversed test.

	* engine/lib_type.c: incorrect signature for "ClrType.GetMemberImpl".

	* engine/lib_type.c (ClrType_GetMemberImpl): move the initialization
	of "foundItem" outside the outer loop so that it isn't accidentally
	reset when traversing ancestor classes.

	* engine/verify.c, image/types.c, include/il_types.h: modify
	assignment-compatibility testing so that interfaces can be
	properly assigned to "System.Object".

	* engine/verify_except.c (OutputExceptionTable): bug fix - the
	range for exception handler blocks was incorrect.

	* engine/lib_string.c (IsCharMatch): bug fix - was using
	"StringToBuffer" when it should have been "ArrayToBuffer".

	by "libgc" so that other parts of the system can adapt to
	the same thread model.

	* engine/engine.h, engine/lib_type.c, engine/process.c: implement
	"_ILClrToObject" and "_ILClrFromObject" to handle reflecting image
	program items to and from CLR objects.

	* ChangeLog: change the format to be consistent with what
	GNU Emacs expects.

2001-12-07  Rhys Weatherley  <rweather@southern-storm.com.au>

	* csdoc/doc_valil.c: validate custom attributes.

	* engine/lib_type.c: "ClrType.IsSubclassOf" should return false when
	the types are identical; "ClrType.GetMembersImpl" has a new parameter
	for the name.

2001-12-06  Rhys Weatherley  <rweather@southern-storm.com.au>

	* csdoc/Makefile.am, csdoc/doc_load.c, csdoc/doc_tree.h,

	implement "internalcall" methods for assembly and type reflection.

	* cscc/cs_grammar.y: fix a shift/reduce conflict in the grammar which
	caused it to complain about casts to array types.  e.g. "(A[]) expr".

	* samples/mscorlib.dll: new version that matches the engine changes
	for reflection.

2001-11-29  Rhys Weatherley  <rweather@southern-storm.com.au>

	* engine/engine.h, engine/internal.c, engine/lib_defs.h,
	engine/lib_object.c, engine/lib_type.c, engine/process.c:

	I/O, resources, etc.

2001-11-27  Rhys Weatherley  <rweather@southern-storm.com.au>

	* engine/verify.c, engine/verify_var.c: detect unsafe pointer types
	in arguments and locals and bail out of the verifier if found.

	* engine/verify_var.c: handle "byref" local variables correctly
	in "ldloc".

	* tests/test_vlocal.c, tests/test_verify.h, tests/test_verify.c,
	tests/ilunit.c, tests/Makefile.am: implement some unit tests for
	local variable and argument opcodes.

	* image/context.c (GetImageByName): use the token data blocks
	rather than the raw values, because the synthetic image doesn't
	have raw values.

	* image/link.c (ILPInvokeResolveModule): fix a bug that caused two '/'
	characters to be inserted into pathnames; improve the #ifdef's that
	detect if we are compiling on a Win32 platform.

	* cscc/cs_main.c (LoadLibraryFromPath): minor status check bug
	that was introduced when the source was updated to use
	"ILImageLoadFromFile".

	* configure.in, NEWS: update for "0.2.6" release.

	* configure.in: update the working version to "0.2.7".

2001-11-26  Rhys Weatherley  <rweather@southern-storm.com.au>

	correctly in "AssignCompatible"; pass the unsafe mode flag to
	"AssignCompatible" every time it is called.

	* image/member.c: nested classes can access private members within
	their nesting parents.

	* engine/asmfix.c: replace "incl %esi" with "addl $1, %esi", because
	Intel's performance guidelines suggest that increment instructions
	should be avoided.  This does produce a slight improvement in engine
	performance.

	* ilasm/ilasm_output.c: bug in "ILAsmOutVar", which caused it to
	output "ldarg" instead of "ldloc" in some cases.

2001-11-25  Rhys Weatherley  <rweather@southern-storm.com.au>

	* tests/Makefile.am, tests/ilunit.c, tests/test_varith.c,
	tests/test_vbranch.c, tests/test_vcompare.c, tests/test_vconst.c,
	tests/test_vconv.c, tests/test_verify.c, tests/test_verify.h:

	csdoc/doc_texi.c, csdoc/doc_tree.h: keep track of the assembly name
	for a type when the XML file is loaded; report the assembly name
	in generated documentation.

	* csdoc/doc_valil.c, csdoc/Makefile.am: begin writing "csdocvalil",
	which can be used to validate IL binaries such as "mscorlib.dll"
	against the ECMA-supplied XML documentation file.

	* samples/mscorlib.dll: new version with "System.Text" namespace.

2001-11-24  Rhys Weatherley  <rweather@southern-storm.com.au>

	* support/filemap.c: modify the #ifdef's according to suggestions from
	Volker Hahn <Volker.Hahn@bytesteps.net> so as to detect cygwin better.

	* engine/cvm.c, engine/cvm.h, engine/cvm_dasm.c, engine/cvm_inline.c,
	engine/cvmc.c, engine/cvmc_call.c, engine/ilverify.c,
	engine/lib_string.c, engine/verify_call.c, include/il_coder.h,
	include/il_engine.h: detect commonly-used methods in "System.String"

	tests/type_access.cs: remove some obsolete files.

	* engine/Makefile.am, engine/null_coder.c, engine/ilverify.c: split
	the null coder into a separate source file so it can be reused by
	other programs.

	* Makefile.am, configure.in, tests/.cvsignore, tests/Makefile.am,
	tests/ilunit.c, tests/ilunit.h, tests/test_verify.c: implement an
	XUnit-style testing framework to assist with testing the system;
	begin writing a test harness for the bytecode verifier.

	* engine/verify_var.c: fix the code that fetches 16-bit variable
	numbers in some of the prefixed opcodes.

	* engine/verify_arith.c: use "subUnsafeMatrix" instead of
	"addUnsafeMatrix" for verifying "sub" and "sub.ovf.un".

	* engine/verify_branch.c: "clt", "clt.un", and "cgt" are not valid on
	pointer arguments.

	* tests/test_verify.c: implement verification test cases for
	arithmetic, conversion, comparison, and illegal opcodes.

	* ilasm/ilasm_main.c: re-enable short instruction squashing;
	it got disabled at some point in the past, and it should not have been.

2001-11-22  Rhys Weatherley  <rweather@southern-storm.com.au>

	* engine/call.c, engine/engine.h, engine/cvm.c, engine/cvm_call.c,
	engine/cvm_except.c: implement exception handling opcodes in CVM.

	of the handler table for methods with try blocks.

	* engine/lib_string.c, engine/lib_defs.h: implement the "internalcall"
	methods that are needed to support "System.Text.StringBuilder".

	* samples/mscorlib.dll: new version with "System.Text.StringBuilder".

2001-11-21  Rhys Weatherley  <rweather@southern-storm.com.au>

	* samples/mscorlib.dll: new version with "UtcNow" fix.

	* include/il_coder.h, engine/cvmc.c, engine/cvmc_branch.c,
	engine/ilverify.c: implement the "Throw", "Jsr", and "RetFromJsr"
	coder API's.

	* engine/call.c, engine/cvm.h, engine/cvm_branch.c, engine/cvm_call.c,
	engine/cvm_dasm.c, engine/cvm_except.c, engine/cvmc.c,

	dump stream to be adjusted.

	* engine/verify_call.c: bug in the verification of "newobj" -

	ensure that primitive value types are converted properly.

	* engine/ilrun.c, engine/process.c, image/context.c, image/image.h,
	image/link.c, include/il_engine.h, include/il_image.h: add

	functions to support UTC vs local time zone differences.

	* samples/mscorlib.dll: new version with timezone fixes.

2001-11-19  Rhys Weatherley  <rweather@southern-storm.com.au>

	* image/Makefile.am, image/marshal.c, image/types.c,
	include/il_meta.h, include/il_program.h, include/il_types.h:
	implement "ILPInvokeGetMarshalType", which determines how a
	parameter should be marshalled to a PInvoke method.

	* cscc/cscc.c: print a warning message if "-fsyntax-check" is
	supplied to let users know that the C# compiler is still a work
	in progress.  Hopefully this will stop the newbies asking
	"why doesn't it compile?" all the time.

	* image/link.c: bug fix - don't search the parent assembly
	directory during dynamic linking if the filename is NULL.

	* image/marshal.c: the name of the attribute should end in "Attribute".

	* configure.in, image/Makefile.am, image/image.c, image/image.h,
	image/link.c, image/pecoff_loader.c, image/types.c, include/il_image.h,

	in the configure.in file.

	* engine/asmfix.c: changes to accomodate assembler issues that are

	the ugliness of prefixes and suffixes elsewhere.

	* engine/convert.c, image/link.c: change the PInvoke module loading so
	that it uses the "ILPInvokeResolveModule" function.

2001-11-18  Rhys Weatherley  <rweather@southern-storm.com.au>

	* engine/cvm.h, engine/cvm.c, engine/cvm_call.c, engine/cvm_dasm.c,
	engine/cvmc_setup.c: modify the argument packing for "ffi_call" so
	that arguments are pushed onto a "native argument stack" instead of
	the normal stack.  This is a little faster, and also avoids alignment
	problems on platforms with 32-bit pointers, but 64-bit alignment.

	* configure.in, include/il_system.h, include/il_config.h.in,
	support/dynlib.c, support/Makefile.am, engine/convert.c,

	"ILStringToUTF8" and "ILStringToAnsi" to the engine API.

	* engine/cvm.h, engine/cvm_conv.c, engine/cvm_dasm.c,
	engine/cvmc_setup.c: recognise string parameters to PInvoke
	functions and convert them into "char *" strings automatically.

2001-11-17  Rhys Weatherley  <rweather@southern-storm.com.au>

	* configure.in, NEWS: update for "0.2.4" release.

	* configure.in: change the working version to "0.2.5".

	* engine/Makefile.am, engine/engine.h, engine/internal.c,
	engine/lib_diag.c, engine/process.c, engine/thread.c: implement
	the "internalcall" methods for "System.Diagnostics".

	* samples/mscorlib.dll: new version with "System.Diagnostics" support.

	* engine/Makefile.am, engine/asmfix.c: fix a bug in the pass-through
	code in "asmfix" that caused it to output the same assembly code twice;
	recognise another form of loop top that gcc sometimes uses.

	* engine/cvm.h, engine/cvm_dasm.c, engine/cvm_ptr.c, engine/cvmc_obj.c:
	modify the handling of "ILTypedRef" structures so that they are aligned
	and used properly on 64-bit platforms.

2001-11-16  Rhys Weatherley  <rweather@southern-storm.com.au>

	* cscc/cs_invoke.tc, cscc/cs_internal.h, cscc/cs_lookup.c: add code
	to determine the "best" candidate method from amongst a group of
	candidates.

	* codegen/cg_gen.c: make "ILFindNonSystemType" look in the global
	scope before falling back to the library image.

	* codegen/cg_gen.h, codegen/cg_gen.c, cscc/cs_main.c, cscc/csdoc.c:
	don't create the builtin library image if "mscorlib" is being loaded.

	* dumpasm/dump_ident.c: try to print the assembly name rather than the
	module name when dumping class names.

	* cscc/cs_invoke.tc: favour non-"params" candidates over "params"
	candidates.

	* codegen/cg_output.c, codegen/jv_output.c: pass "info->image" to
	"ILDumpMethodType", "ILDumpType", and "ILDumpClassName", to ensure
	that the correct module/assembly qualifications are output.

	* cscc/cs_invoke.tc: slight bug with non-"params" favouring code -
	it didn't work if the first candidate was "params".

	* cscc/cscc.c, cscc/cs_options.h, cscc/cs_options.c: call the linker
	if we are building a final executable or library.

	* cscc/cs_options.c (CSAddLinkFile): the wrong array element in
	"files_to_link_temp" was being set.

	* cscc/cscc.c: add "-L ." to the end of the linker command-line to
	make it use the same library resolution code as "cscc-cs".

	* samples/fib.cs, samples/Makefile.am, samples/.cvsignore: modify the
	Fibonacci example program so that it is compiled all the way to an
	executable file.

	* image/member.c: bail out from "ILMethodGetCode" if the method has an
	RVA, but the code is native rather than IL.

	* image/meta_build.c: remember the original call site signature when
	a MemberRef points at a method.

	* dumpasm/dump_type.c: print "..." for sentinels.

	* ildasm/ildasm_method.c: dump the proper call site signature for
	"vararg" calls; print a message when native code is encountered.

	* engine/cvm.h: temporarily disable CVMWord structure alignment under
	cygwin because it gives the wrong value and causes problems with
	"libffi".

	* include/il_utils.h, support/cmdline.c, cscc/cs_options.c: implement
	and use the "ILCmdLineExpand" function to handle "@"-specified
	response files.

	* cscc/cscc.c: disable the final link if we are only performing a
	syntax or semantic check.

2001-11-15  Rhys Weatherley  <rweather@southern-storm.com.au>

	* cscc/cs_main.c: load library images into the C# compiler to assist
	with the resolution of library definitions.

	* cscc/cs_lookup.c: bug in "FilterStatic" and "FilterNonStatic"
	that caused it to use the wrong pointer for the method.

	* cscc/cs_grammar.y: make sure that the "System" namespace is always
	included at the global level of every source file.

	* cscc/cs_internal.h, cscc/cs_invoke.tc, cscc/cs_lookup.c: improve the
	method candidate testing so that it handles multiple candidates better.

	* ilnative/ilnative.c: don't report "runtime" methods as native,
	because they are usually delegate methods that aren't strictly native
	in the same way as "internalcall"'s are.

2001-11-14  Rhys Weatherley  <rweather@southern-storm.com.au>

	* image/sig_writer.c (WriteType): modify the representation of multi-
	dimensional arrays to match the recent change to "sig_parse.c".

	* image/misc.c: check for null in "ILTypeSpecGetClassRef".

	* image/assembly.c (ILAssemblyCreate): don't assign a real token if
	we are loading an image and the supplied token code is zero.  This is
	used to create pseudo assembly imports for synthetic types.

	* image/assembly.c: bug in previous check-in; we need to be careful
	not to create a real AssemblyRef for "$Synthetic" when images are
	built.

	* engine/cvmc_stack.c: adjust the stack height properly for
	"dup" and "pop".

	* engine/cvm_stack.c, engine/cvm_var.c: fix a bug in the usage of
	"MODIFY_PC_AND_STACK" where the stack is being adjusted by a value
	read from the instruction's arguments.  Previously, the program counter
	was being incremented before fetching the argument, when it should
	have been incremented *after* fetching the argument.

	* engine/cvm_call.c: add some extra debug code to dump the top 16
	items on the stack on entry and exit to every method.

	* engine/engine.h: increase the stack size so that we can run more
	involved examples.

	* engine/Makefile.am, engine/asmfix.c, engine/.cvsignore: check in an
	experimental program that can optimize the CVM interpreter on x86
	platforms better than gcc can.

	* image/meta_build.c: use "ILTypeSpecGetClassRef" to resolve TypeSpec
	MemberRef's instead of the original "ILTypeSpecGetClass".

	* engine/Makefile.am: temporarily disable the optimized runtime engine
	because it is messing up some people's builds.

	* samples/mscorlib.dll: new version with lots of new classes.

2001-11-13  Rhys Weatherley  <rweather@southern-storm.com.au>

	* engine/verify_var.c, engine/verify_call.c: handle value type "this"
	parameters better.

	* engine/cvm_call.c, engine/cvm_dasm.c: flush stdout after dumping
	CVM instruction data.

	* engine/cvmc_obj.c: bug in "CVMCoder_BoxSmaller" - the wrong constants
	were being used in the switch cases.

	* engine/verify.c: compute the size of the jump target mask better,
	and make sure that we clear temporary memory blocks when they are
	allocated.

	* engine/verify.c: modify the debug code so that it reports an accurate
	offset for failed instructions.

	* engine/verify_branch.c: reduce the stack size for "switch"
	instructions prior to validating stack heights.

	* engine/lib_string.c, engine/strapi.c: move the external string API's
	out of "strapi.c" and into "lib_string.c"; then implement them
	efficiently in terms of the existing "internalcall" representation.

	* engine/engine.h, engine/Makefile.am, engine/process.c,
	engine/lib_string.c: get the string class from the process,
	not from the executing method, because the string API's may
	not be running in the context of a method.

	* engine/engine.h, engine/process.c, engine/lib_string.c: implement
	string intern'ing.

	* engine/lib_string.c: implement new "internalcall" methods for
	string comparisons.

	* samples/mscorlib.dll: new version with updated "String" class.

	* image/sig_parse.c: bug in the parsing of sizes and lower bounds for
	multi-dimensional arrays.

2001-11-12  Rhys Weatherley  <rweather@southern-storm.com.au>

	* engine/cvm_dasm.c: dump the correct signature for constructors when
	"call_native" is used.

	* engine/cvmc_branch.c: bug - "CVMCoder_Label" wasn't handling multiple
	references for the same label properly.

	* include/il_engine.h, engine/lib_array.c: "ILExecThreadGetElem" and
	"ILExecThreadSetElem".

	* include/il_engine.h, engine/lookup.c, engine/lib_type.c: rename
	"ILExecThreadLookupType" to "ILExecThreadLookupClass", and then
	implement a new "ILExecThreadLookupType" that returns "ILType"
	instead of "ILClass".

	* engine/ilrun.c: construct an array with the command-line parameters,
	and pass it to the program's entry point.

	* engine/layout.c: record the interface properly in
	"ComputeInterfaceTable".

	* engine/verify_call.c: bug - "callvirt" was checking the wrong
	class to see if it is an interface.

	* engine/layout.c: lay out the static fields after the full object
	size has been computed, to get around circularity problems in value
	type classes.

	* engine/verify_obj.c: use "AssignCompatible" to test
	type-compatibility for stores into value type fields.

	* engine/lib_helpers.c, engine/Makefile.am, engine/internal.c,
	engine/lib_array.c, engine/lib_defs.h, engine/engine.h: implement the
	"InitializeArray" runtime helper method.

	* engine/verify_var.c: make "ldarg.0" work when it refers to a "this"
	parameter that is a managed value.

	* engine/cvmc_obj.c: incorrect size when storing "long" fields.

	* engine/cvm_dasm.c: missing instruction in the prefixed opcode table,
	which caused the disassembler to report the wrong instruction
	sometimes.

	* engine/layout.c: make sure that we resolve value type references
	in "LayoutType" before re-entering "LayoutClass".

	* engine/cvm_call.c: if we are dumping CVM instructions, then also
	dump the method we are returning to for a "return" instruction.

	* engine/cvm_dasm.c, engine/cvm_ptr.c, engine/cvmc_obj.c: modify the
	behaviour of the "padd_offset_n" instruction and fix some bugs with it.

	* engine/cvmc_obj.c: optimization - don't add an offset of 0 when
	loading value fields in "CVMLoadValueField".

	* engine/verify_obj.c: bug fix - "ldfld" was verifying fields within
	value types incorrectly.

	* samples/mscorlib.dll: new version with "DateTime" operator fix.

	* engine/verify_branch.c: fix the definition of "GET_SHORT_DEST" so
	that it computes the offset as signed instead of unsigned.

	* engine/layout.c: problem with the size of the interface table.

	* engine/cvm_call.c: dump the name of a method when it is entered.

	* samples/mscorlib.dll: new version with "TextWriter" fix.

2001-11-11  Rhys Weatherley  <rweather@southern-storm.com.au>

	* include/il_engine.h, engine/call.c: implement an alternative call
	API that uses structures instead of varargs.

	* engine/internal.c, engine/lib_defs.h, engine/lib_thread.c: implement
	more of the thread-related "internalcall" methods.

	* samples/mscorlib.dll: new version of "mscorlib" that contains the
	new resource and thread classes.

	* engine/layout.c: temporary disable "ComputeInterfaceTable" because
	it is causing "Hello World" to fail.

	* image/class.c: fix the implementation of "ILClassImplements" so that
	it recursively scans all interface parents that an interface has.

	* image/program.h, engine/engine.h, engine/call.c, engine/layout.c:
	change the representation of interface tables; compute interfaces that
	inherit from other interfaces properly; this also makes "Hello World"
	work again.

2001-11-10  Rhys Weatherley  <rweather@southern-storm.com.au>

	* engine/layout.c: compute the interface lookup tables for the class.

	* engine/call.c: resolve interface references during interface lookup;
	recognise 0xFFFF as an abstract interface slot.

	* engine/cvm_call.c: throw a "MissingMethodException" if interface
	method lookup fails.

	* engine/layout.c: modify the override detection logic to search on
	declaration, not body.

	* include/il_serialize.h, include/Makefile.am, image/ser_parse.c,
	image/Makefile.am: routines for parsing serialized attribute values.

	* ildasm/ildasm_attrs.c, image/ser_parse.c: dump a readable version
	of custom attribute values after the binary blob.

	* engine/lib_string.c, engine/strapi.c: make sure that integer values
	are cast to "ILVaInt" before being passed to "ILExecThreadNew".

	* codegen/cg_cast.tc: check for overflow during constant casts.

	* support/value.c: remove obsolete file.

	* configure.in, include/il_config.h.in, include/il_values.h: make
	native integers the same size as native pointers, to be consistent
	with the ECMA requirements.

	* engine/cvm.h, engine/engine.h: pad CVM stack words to a multiple of
	the best alignment so that 64-bit platforms always have an aligned
	stack.

	* engine/lib_defs.h, engine/heap.c: change the definition of the object
	header so that it is aligned on the machine's best alignment boundary.

	* Makefile.am, configure.in, libgc/*: check in the Hans-Boehm garbage
	collection library, version 6.0.

	* include/il_gc.h, include/Makefile.am, support/hb_gc.c,
	support/Makefile.am: implement the garbage collection API in terms
	of the Hans-Boehm collector.

	* include/il_engine.h, engine/engine.h, engine/heap.h, engine/heap.c,
	engine/process.c, engine/Makefile.am: modify the engine to use the
	garbage collector instead of the dummy heap implementation.

	* engine/ilrun.c: add the `-H' (heap size) option to the engine, and
	initialize the engine using "ILExecInit".

	* engine/engine.h, engine/heap.c, engine/lib_string.c,
	engine/lib_array.c: use atomic memory allocation for strings and
	arrays of non-pointer values so that the garbage collector can
	avoid wasting time scanning them for object pointer values.

	* engine/engine.h, engine/heap.c, engine/layout.c: detect the presence
	of non-trivial finalizers within classes and register a finalizer with
	any object that meets the conditions.

	* include/il_gc.h, support/hb_gc.c: implement "persistent" memory
	allocation within the garbage collector.

	* engine/Makefile.am, engine/ilverify.c, engine/layout.c,
	engine/process.c, engine/thread.c: use persistent memory
	allocation for all engine blocks that may contain object pointers
	that need to seen by the garbage collector.

	* engine/heap.c: bug - handle NULL class descriptors when checking
	for finalizers.

2001-11-08  Rhys Weatherley  <rweather@southern-storm.com.au>

	* csant/Makefile.am, csant/csant_fileset.h, csant/csant_fileset.c,
	csant/csant.c, csant/csant_build.c, csant/csant_cscc.c,

	and related elements.

	* csant/csant_build.c: length error in memory allocation.

	* csant/csant_fileset.c: introduce some robustness into the
	fileset API's.

	* csant/csant_fileset.c: fix the regular expression handling
	for filesets.

	* csant/csant_cscc.c: return the correct return code when the
	arguments have been parsed successfully.

	* csant/csant_cscc.c: check the input sources to see if they are newer
	than the output before building the output file.

	* csant/csant_cscc.c: adjust the output filename with respect to
	the base directory.

	* include/il_values.h, include/il_types.h, image/types.c,
	codegen/cg_arith.tc, codegen/cg_coerce.c, engine/verify_arith.c,
	cscc/cs_internal.h, cscc/cs_grammar.y, cscc/cs_scanner.l,
	cscc/cs_oper.tc, support/Makefile.am: remove all references to
	"ILValue" and "ILValueType" from the code, because they are
	now obsolete.

	* include/il_values.h, image/image.h: move the "IL_WRITE_*" macros
	from "image.h" to "il_values.h" so that they can be reused elsewhere
	in the code.

	* include/il_values.h, support/Makefile.am, support/mul_long.c,
	support/rem_float.c, codegen/cg_arith.tc, engine/cvm_arith.c: implement
	the and use helper functions "ILInt64MulOvf", "ILUInt64MulOvf", and

	engine/cvm_conv.c, codegen/cg_cast.tc: implement helper functions
	for difficult numeric conversions in "support".

	* include/il_align.h, support/mempool.c, support/memstack.c,
	engine/verify.c: detect the target platform's alignment better and
	then use it within various memory allocators in the code.

2001-11-07  Rhys Weatherley  <rweather@southern-storm.com.au>

	* doc/l10n.html: check in a proposal for a new resource system for C#.

2001-11-05  Rhys Weatherley  <rweather@southern-storm.com.au>

	* ilasm/ilasm_build.h, ilasm/ilasm_build.c, ilasm/ilasm_grammar.y:
	use a different nested class separator than '/' because Mercury wants
	to use that within its identifiers.

	* csant/Makefile.am, csant/.cvsignore, csant/csant.c,
	csant/csant_dir.c, csant/csant_dir.h, csant/csant_cscc.c,

2001-11-04  Rhys Weatherley  <rweather@southern-storm.com.au>

	* engine/verify_arith.c, engine/verify_const.c, engine/verify_ptr.c,
	engine/verify_branch.c, engine/verify_conv.c: make sure that the
	"typeInfo" part of a stack item is zeroed after arithmetic
	instructions.  This is needed to prevent confusion between "I" used
	as numeric, pointer, and delegate types.

	* engine/verify.c: modify "TypeToEngineType" and "AssignCompatible"
	to pass method pointers around the system as type "I".

	* include/il_coder.h, engine/ilverify.c, engine/verify_call.c,
	engine/cvmc.c, engine/cvmc_call.c: verification for "ldftn" and
	"ldvirtfn".

	* engine/verify.c: modify some comments.  The latest ECMA spec does
	allow verifiable method pointers after all.

	* engine/cvm.h, engine/cvm_dasm.c, engine/cvm_call.c,
	engine/cvmc_call.c: implement the CVM parts of "ldftn",
	"ldvirtfn", and "ldinterfftn".

	* libffi/x86/win32.S: include <ffi_private.h> to define constants
	such as "FFI_TYPE_FLOAT", etc.

2001-11-03  Rhys Weatherley  <rweather@southern-storm.com.au>

	* ChangeLog, doc/ChangeLog-1: move the contents of "ChangeLog" to
	"doc/ChangeLog-1", because it was starting to get too big to manage.
