[TCLCORE] Tcl/Tk 8.6.13 Release Candidates

[Donald G P. <don...@ni...>]

Now available at

https://sourceforge.net/projects/tcl/files/Tcl/8.6.13/ <https://sourceforge.net/projects/tcl/files/Tcl/8.6.12/>

are candidate files making up the RC0 pre-releases of Tcl and Tk 8.6.13.

These pre-releases are in somewhat crude condition, minimally tested and missing elements of release polish.  There are no bundled packages included.  The changes file is not up to date. No release notes are yet written.

Testing of builds and operations on multiple platforms is invited.  Open tickets on any problems discovered, or raise the issue in a reply to this message.  If there are any other reasons Tcl/Tk 8.6.13 releases should not proceed, now is the time to offer them.

Thank you for your contributions.

[TCLCORE] Tcl/Tk 8.6.13 Release Candidates

[Donald G P. <don...@ni...>]

Now available at
https://sourceforge.net/projects/tcl/files/Tcl/8.6.13/
are candidate files making up the RC2 pre-releases of Tcl and Tk 8.6.13.
The pre-release of Tcl 8.6.13 includes pre-releases of packages sqlite3.39.4, Itcl 4.2.3, tdbc* 1.1.5, and Thread 2.8.8 .
I believe these files are ready to become the official releases.  If you find a reason that should not happen, please let me know.

Thank you for great release candidates, I appreciate.

I hope, this will be the last run I am testing MS-VC6 with TCL.

SQLite does not compile due to the same issues as with tcl8.6.12.
Perhaps, Jan may fix it or not. Here are the errors:

Can you try this fix:?

Upstream SQLite doesn't support MS-VC6 any more, so I don't know
how long it is possible to keep fixing SQLite with minor patches.

Don,
thanks for great RC2.
When compiling with MS-VC32 and nmake, I get the following build error 
with TDBC:

Could Jan/Ashok look into this?

I have git on windows installed. So the git command is executed but

This is a packaging error: The file manifest.uuid is lacking from the

Dear Jan,

thank you for the light speed action. Here are the results:

a) replace pkgs\tdbc1.1.5 contents by this download:
https://core.tcl-lang.org/tdbc/zip/7c69ad21e3/TDBC-7c69ad21e3.zip
(excluding folders .fossil-settings and .github)

Now tdbc main package builds fine, but we have different errors in the 
other tdbc packages:

Dear Don,

When building with MS-VC+nmake, I get the following error when compiling

I thought, I had already fixed that...

Thanks for taking a look,

Thank you, Don, I appreciate.

Here are my test results on MS-VC6 + PSDK2003SP2.
I hope, I will annoy you the last time with this old compiler.
But it is my role ;-).

1) Build
- Tcl and Tk builds fine. There are some notes about unsupported 
options, but this is harmless and ok.

Test results compared to TCL 8.6.12:

Still failing: winFCmd-6.1. winFCmd-6.9, winFCmd-6.13

So, TCL and Tk is ok, also the tclthread package.

Work will be done on the tdbc and sqlite packages.
Jan has already given solutions for TDBC.
Perhaps, sqlite will follow to. It is clearly a compiler issue and the 
use of modern features.
Otherwise, an older version must be used with MS-VC6, what is ok too.

Then, I will do real program tests.

Thank you, great work !
Harald

Looks good to me. I have not encountered any issues when running my most 
complicated application with Tcl/Tk 8.6.13.

I have just one remark. The Tcl changes file says:

2022-05-04 (bug)[8eb64b] http package support for Content-encoding: br

However, looking at the diff, it only seems that the error message was 
changed from: 'unsupported content-encoding "br"' to 'content-encoding 
"br" not implemented'. Calling that support seems a bit of a stretch to me.


Schelte.

Schelte,
I have made this modification in http. It was due to a client request, 
to ignore invalid http encoding methods. That is the only change.

So, a good changelog would be:

2022-05-04 (bug)[8eb64b] http package tolerant again invalid reply header

(what is the title of the ticket).

I don't want to make this change in fossil now, as Donald is in the 
release process.

Thank you, that you verified the changes file, I appreciate !
Harald

N.B.
After 8 month, the client reported to me, that this was due to a 
configuration error in SAP. But anyway, all web-servers behave like 
that, so it is a good change...

Yes, but if manifest.uuid is in the wrong place .....   should be fixed now.

This should be fixed now as well.

Thanks, Jan, great !

Action (in addition to tdbc replacement):

- replace content of pkgs\tdbcodbc1.1.5 by
https://core.tcl-lang.org/tdbcodbc/zip/5e20abf65a/tdbc__odbc-5e20abf65a.zip
(excluding folder .fossil-settings)
-> compiles correctly

- replace content of pkgs\tdbcmysql1.1.5 by
https://core.tcl-lang.org/tdbcmysql/zip/45eaed0c32/tdbc__mysql-45eaed0c32.zip
(excluding folder .fossil-settings)
-> compiles correctly

- replace content of pkgs\tdbcpostgres1.1.5 by
https://core.tcl-lang.org/tdbcpostgres/info/09741d43927e4567
(excluding folder .fossil-settings)
-> compiles correctly

- replace content of pkgs\sqlite3.39.4 by
https://cyqlite.sourceforge.io/cgi-bin/sqlite/zip/4c5b3d03bc/tclsqlite-4c5b3d03bc.zip
(excluding folder .fossil-settings)
-> compiles correctly

The tests are still running. I will drop an E-Mail if there are any 
negative test results.

All fixed in some hours ! Great work !

Thank you and take care,
Harald

Dear Donald,

including the changes in the bundled packages (tdbc,sqlite), all is ok 
from my side. So, go for the release.

I only tested on Windows 64 bit system with 32 bit TCL build with MS-VC6.

Thanks to the light-speed team to make this happen!

[TCLCORE] Tcl/Tk 8.6.13 Release Candidates

[Harald O. <har...@el...>]

Now available at

https://sourceforge.net/projects/tcl/files/Tcl/8.6.13/

are candidate files making up the RC3 pre-releases of Tcl and Tk 8.6.13.

The pre-release of Tcl 8.6.13 includes pre-releases of packages 
sqlite3.40.0, Itcl 4.2.3, tdbc* 1.1.5, and Thread 2.8.8 .

The changes since RC2 include the new sqlite3.40.0 release, some 
packaging troubles with the tdbc* packages, and a few test suite corner 
cases.

The RC3 files should become the release on Nov. 22, when release notes 
will also be published.  Please report any release-blocking troubles you 
discover.

Dear Donald,

thanks for the great release candidates.
Here is the usual test report on WIndows 10 64 bit with tcl 32 bit 
compiled with prehistoric MS-VC6+SDK:

Please allow me to report the following build issues of bundeled packages:

1) tdbcmysql does not compile

I diffed this with:
https://core.tcl-lang.org/tdbcmysql/zip/45eaed0c32/tdbc__mysql-45eaed0c32.zip
The files:
win/gitmanifest.in
win/svnmanifest.in
win/tdbcMysqlUuid.h.in
are not in the distribution.
I manually added "win/tdbcMysqlUuid.h.in".
-> this change makes it compile

2) sqlite3 does not compile

As it compiled for me to have win/tdbcMysqlUuid.h.in added, I don't 
think, this makefile changes are necessary.
Nevertheless, here is the test result:
Take:
https://core.tcl-lang.org/tdbcmysql/zip/c9ac47315e/tdbc__mysql-c9ac47315e.zip
and replace tcl8.6.13_rc3 folder pkgs\tdbcmysql1.1.5 by its contents
(excluding .fossil-settings)

-> this compiles and installs well. Thank you, great !

Thank you Jan. Here is your work. You basically restored the old makefile:
https://cyqlite.sourceforge.io/cgi-bin/sqlite/zip/9398afb86f/tclsqlite-9398afb86f.zip

Ok, sourceforge. I took:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/tcl/files/Tcl/8.6.13/sqlite3.40.0.tar.gz/download
and replaced tcl8.6.13rc2 folder pkgs\sqlite3.40.0
with its contents.

--> compiles well, thank you, great !

I have only retested tcl+bundled packages. All ok (same as tcl8.6.12).

Thank you, great,

Hi Ashok,

https://sourceforge.net/projects/tcl/files/TDBC/
displays only up to 1.1.1, and
https://sourceforge.net/projects/tcl/files/Thread%20Extension/

Haven't tested all tdbc yet but Tcl/Tk 8.6.13 is good for me on obsd

All good on FreeBSD 13.1, amd64, except from a minor thing.

unixInit-3.2 fails: [encoding system] inside the spawned interpreter is 
iso8859-1. This gets fixed if I re-run the test after installation, so I 
guess somehow the test can't resolve the encoding files before they are 
installed. As a double check, I have renamed the installed encodings/ 
directory, re-run the test, and reproduced the failure.

As a double check, I have renamed the installed encodings/ directory, re-run the test, and reproduced the failure.

I have just seen this test failing and opened a ticket about it, but when I see it fail, the failure is always associated with the encoding directory being in the zipfs, so I see the failure only when testing Tcl 8.7.

To be sure, you are seeing this failure from the 8.6.13 rc?  And not customizing it somehow to graft on any zipfs capability?

If that is right, can you take another moment to try the 8.6.12 release (one release older) and test for the same thing?  I want to see if some change in Tcl between releases is being seen, or whether some other cause is in play.

I will also try a build of RC3 where I use —exec-prefix to direct the install to unused filesystem space so prior installs of encoding files do not mask the issue.

I think I am willing to release 8.6.13 without a fix for this (only seems to cause problem pre-install, and only for systems not yet using utf-8 as a system encoding), but having more failure modes should speed the location of the issue.
