June 17, 2004 - Defect 131 - There were problems generating the print tick
intervals when the axis specifications went in 'reverse'
(e.g. {100 -100 200}). Fixed in modifications to
griprint.cc I think.
- Fix build issues in TestFiles directory so that the
event test generting programs can be built again Yeah.

count on there being 8 bits per byte.
September 8, 2004 - Removed in-linedness of CGate::RecursiveReest I had
thought this was triggering a compiler error but
it was not in fact. Since this is a virt. there's no
gain to inlining it anyway.
September 23,2004 - NamedItem.h - decided to finally trust stl's string
constructors.. the way I was doing named item
constructors was giving Purify fits.
September 24,2004 - Added CalibrationDistribution to produce evenly spaced

October 20-22 2004 - Fix defect 145: Spaces and special characters in names
can make saveall loadall fail miserably...and other misc.
things uncovered while repairing the defect.
October 25,26 2004 - Optimize 1d long histogram increments. Note that many
but not all changes will help 2d word increments too, but
these (less often used) histograms won't get full benefit
as there are modifications to the Spectrum1DL file that
are deliberately not propagated back to Spectrum1DW
October 27, 2004 -Optimize2d short histogram increments

doing delete m_pBuffer -> delete [] m_pBuffer.
Decmeber 21,2006
- Ensure that the scriptable makefile also links in
the fits library.
Release Jan 15, 2007
Pre 2 starts.
January 18, 2007 - Defect 288 : applygate.tcl did not handle case of
multiple target spectra correctly.
February 12, 2007 - Enh Request 232 : when treevariable -set is invoked,
fire the traces on that variable so that any GUI elements
bound to that treevariable are updated
February 13, 2007 - Defect/enh. 234 : When a configuration is restored,
and the config script has an error, keep on trying to
execute the script but report all the errors in a dialog...
at present, hopefully there are not very many errors as
the dialog is not a scrolling dialog.
February 15,2007 - Synch gpVersion with VERSION symbol in config.h
Week of Feb 22, 2007 - BZ enhancement request 291 Gamma 2d deluxe
spectrum.
Week of Feb 26, 2007 - BZ 292? Ensure that tk app name is unique
so multiple tkcons will open.
- Fix inadvertent leaving of Gamma 2d as Ulong_t not
UInt_t and same for gamma deluxe, for 3.1 , Gamma 2dL
was already correct.
Week of March 5 - Add Splash screen.
- Adjust chisquare calculation to be correct for CGaussianFit
(thanks to Dirk Weisshaar).
Week of March 12, 2007-
- Ensure that SpecTcl does not crash if VERSION not readable.
(BZ 294).
Week of March 19, 2007
- Make CEvent::clear() O(1) time.bg
Week of April 2, 2007
- Add disclaimer to filterread.htm about data beyond the last used
position in filter buffers as someone made an assumption that is not
true about it.
- Added whatsnew3.1.htm page linked to front page that allows
users to see what's new in SpecTcl 3.1
Pre-released April 26, 2007
Pre-3.
Week of April 30, 2007
- Added observer capability to all dictionaries types. This will
allow support of traces on e.g. spectrum dictionary.
- Added tests for dictionary observers and the observer manager
helper classes.
- Added capability to add/remove observers from the spectrum dictionary
to CHistogrammer.
- Added API entries to add/remove spectrum observers.
- Added spectrum -trace command.
- Added docs for the -trace command.
- Made Xamine's Xamine_DrawFittedString also attempt truncation
rather than just leaving a string blank if it does not fit.
e.g. a title that is:
"this is a very long string that does not fit"
could get rendered/displayed as:
"this is a very lo..." if that's all the room there is
- Port in the jumbo buffer decoder and put it in scriptable unpacker
too
Week of May 7, 2007
- BZ 295 - add support for splitting/joining filter files. Note that
cat can join perfectly well, so this reduces to writing a program
filtsplit that can split. We'll choose to write:
filtspilt --size blocks_per_file --output stem_name input_file
blocks_per_file - number of input filter blocks per output file.
stem_name - Is the stem of the split output files which
will have names like stem_name_nnn.flt
input_file - Is the input file to split.
- Changed swrite format level to 3: Make NSCLAsciiFormatter able to read:
rev 2,1 and even 2 where summary spectra only have 1 coord.
- Fix some issues with Gamma Delux 2d spectrum classes that don't compile
on 4.x compilers
- get NSCLAsciiFormatter to properly read rev 2,3 and 'malformed rev2'
produced by the pre2 version of 3.2.
- Make the spectrum file read functions able to correctly report errors in
reads (e.g. not a spectrum file).
Week of May 14, 2007
- BZ 297 - Make axis tick marks draw correctly if there's only one channel in
the spectrum (well really just don't draw tick marks at all.
- Add code to support gate observers.. for new displayer.
- Add -trace subcommand to gate.
- Fix error in TreeParameter/SpectrumGenerator.tcl -state normal not
-state enabled.
- Fix error in TreeParameter/SpectrumGenerator.tcl - Duplicate button
did not correctly decode parameters of spectrum being duplicated.
- Add docs for the gate -trace subcommand to the web docs.
- Fix CNSCLJumboBuffer::size32() member, was not correctly picking up
the buffer revision level.
Week of May 24, 2007
- Only clear gates that are worth clearing.
Week of May 28,l 2007
- Fix channel position to pixel position coversions which had
the width of a channel to be too large (too few channels in displayed
range.
- Do some jiggerypokery with 1-d gates to make them more consistent with
their integration:
o On acceptance the right point is adjusted to the right by a channel.
o Gate checking is now exclusive of the right point.
o On entering in the display the adjustment is un-done so that
Xamine will display correctly.
Week of June 4, 2007
- Ensure that Xamine's SuperPrompt::SetList message boxes
from Xamine_error_msg() get displayed by making them
children of the prompter's parent rather than of the prompter
which, after all is hidden.
Week of June 11, 2007
- Get nice support for ubuntu edgy eft.
Week of June 25, 2007
- Begin adding the 'integrate' command.
Week of July 2, 2007
- 2-d integrations in Xamine had displayed standard deviations not
fwhm's as advertised.
- Add docs for integrate command.
Week of July 9, 2007
- Corrected CPacket.cpp for jumbos in scriptable.
Week of August 13, 2007
- BZ 318 - Old GUI SpectrumGenerator.tcl was not listing applied
gates correctly when the filter mask was not *
Week of Sept 10,2007
- BZ 318 revisited... need to use hash tables for the applied gates
rather than lists to be utterly reliable.
- Fix error in gamma 2d deluxe where if only one y parameter was specified
one of the constructors would segfault because it was mistakenly getting units
from y[1] not y[0].
- Fix error in swrite NSCLAsciiSpectrumFormatter...get axis limits directly from the
spectrum description rather than dorking around to get them from
the converter.
Pre3 released
October 11, 2007 Pre 4 (or possibly 3.2-001) opened.
October 12, 2007 - Make multicolored monster understand Gamman deluxe spectra.
October 15, 2007 - Redid a bunch of stuff with the test data sources to
allow attach, re-attach , re-re attach etc. Don't think there
are any memory leaks.
October 23, 2007 - Add detach menu entry.. really stops processing and does an
attach -file /dev/null
- added version specific daq locations to search path for
spectcldaq (gui).
November 6, 2007 - Convert to svn repository
November 26, 2007 - BZ 327 - Fix multicolored monster problems with changing spectra
in resopnse to tree parameter range changes.
December 4,2007 - Correct the Usage member of the calibration fit command so that
it reflects the change in the name of the command.
January 3, 2008 - Install splash/license.terms -> $(prefix)/splash.license
to comply with its license terms.
Finalized Pre-release 4 January 3, 2008
Start edit level 3.2-pre5 (may change to 3.2-001 midstream.. watch the log below).
January 7, 2008 - Fixed include license.terms in the build.
- GUI Attach -pipe was failing due to attempts to set
the value of the buffersize widget prior to the creation
of that widget's spinbox.
January 9, 2008 - Add needParameter virtual to CSpectrum class hierarchy.
this is used to know which list spectra belong in.
January 10, 2008 - Fix errors in 1d construction.
- Use spectra organized by parameter to make
increments a bit more efficent.
- Use observers to maintain the flattened gate lists
so there's no increment time overhead.
January 11, 2008 - Make CFlattenedGateList work even if the gate container
for the gate has changed from the inserted one..
that is match the name.
January 16, 2008 - Separate filter output formatting from the filter
class itself.
January 17, 2008 - Provide extensible filter format structure.
- Fix error in filter save in gui .. parameter list had
an extra layer of {}'s.
- Add ability to introspect filter format.
January 18, 2008 - Added support for the newer spectrum types to the API
- Added filter support to the API.
January 25, 2008 - Debugged filter support API
- Fixed error in gate flattener handling that was preventing
gate from being properly applied.
February 25,2008 - Work around lesstif file dialog bug..For each re-use of the file selection
dialog, explicitly set the search mask to the dirname of the mask with
*.win appended. lesstif has the tendency to store the selected file
in the filter path.
March 12, 2008 - Cosmetic changes to folder gui file menu and the prompter for the
which gui to use dialog.
March 21, 2008 - Fix error in MCM GUI where parameters with empty units could cause
errors in the data structures keeping track of the parameters.
Specifically, the entries in the units list would collapse out of
that list due to the use of append, rather than lappend to create those lists.
March 24, 2008 - Add spectrum memory usage to status line of folder GUI per Kevin Carnes
suggestion.
March 24,2008 tag release of 3.2
Start work on 3.2-001
March 27, 2008 - Correct error in spectrum observer. Don't try to enter a spectrum that is
not connected to all its parameters. This can happen in e.g. sread.
March 28, 2008 - BZ330 (hopefully)
o Added easy ability to remove callbacks.
o Registered all graphical input widgets to call
Xamine_DestroyGraphicalInput on both delete and popdown
o Have Xamine_DestroyGraphicalInput
* Kill mouse callbacks for graph input.
* Remove the callbacks for delete and popdown.
April 1, 2008 - Stop recycling properties dialog so it gets
properly recreated (lesstif mis-remanages it).
April 4, 2008 - BZ330 - Don't call cancel callback in
Xamine_DestroyGraphicalInput until the callbacks
are removed so we avoid recursion that will double
destroy the object.
April 22, 2008 - Fix slight errors in binning in SpecTcl.. correctly
compute the bin width for the integeristas.
Per Thomas Baumann.
May 7, 2008 - Fix defect in Xamine gate acceptor on m2 spectra.
Needed to select appropriately between adding the gate
and modifying the existing gate, rather than unconditionally
adding the gate.. which can throw an uncaught exception.
Thanks to Kevin Carnes KSU for stepping into this defect
and alerting me to it.
- Added Kevin Carnes and Dirk Weisshaar to the acknowledgements.
June 5, 2008 - Fix typeo in BufferAnalysis.h
July 11, 2008 - Gui/slice.tcl - re-init the browser on accepting a gate (reinit member)
that restores the parameters used to the list.
- Expose the treeview interface to clients of
Gui/browser.tcl
August 18, 2008 - Update to tkcon V2.4
September 17, 2008

"Inactive" on event source EOF. This is needed to
support batchmode processing of e.g. filter files.
Start on 3.3
September 17, 2008
- Added extensible factory template class directory
factories. This can be used both by new factories
and to refactor the code provided by existing factories.
- Use extensible factory to generate the buffer decoder
selected by the attach -format switch so that buffer decoders
are extensible.
September 18, 2008
- Registered default decoders with DataSourcePackage
September 22, 2008
- Added CRingBufferDecoder support so that ring buffer
data can be decoded.
September 26, 2008
- Provided mechanisms for buffer decoders to specify they
operate either on fixed sized blocks of data or on streams.
This is needed to ensure SpecTcl's input stage does not
get permanently blocked when data taking pauses or
a run ends on a stream oriented pipe data source.
- Indicated that the CRingBufferDecoder is a stream decoder.
- Documented SpecTcl::addBufferDecoder.
- Documented new behavior of the -format switch on the
attach command.
- Xamine - integrate superimposed spectra as well
as base spectra.
October 2, 2008 - Add ungate context menu option to new GUI.
- Don't write applications if the gate is -Ungated-
(spectrum was ungated).
- Correct the count of buffers analyzed to account for the
fact that the first buffer is sequence 0 so we need
the first buffer to increment our buffers analyzed -> 0.
January 5, 2009 - Added gamma summary spectrum.
January 15, 2009
- Fix Xamine compilation errors with -pedantic.
Need to use reinterpret_cast to cast XtPointer ->
function pointers.

or not SpecTcl is in a test system.
pre2:
March 6, 2009 - Make the rEvent array hold doubles not floats.
March 18, 2009 - Fix tkcon.tcl so it does not implement a clear command
that interferes with the SpecTcl clear command.
March 24, 2009 - Make the delgrob dialog a multiselect.
May 1, 2009 - CSpectrum2Dm.{h,cpp} Ensure these spectra get put in the
don't need a parameter list rather than some need a parameter list
which causes them to be grossly underincremented.
pre3:
May 2009 - Port to debian lenny with minimized compiler warnings.
May 20,2009 - In source files add back the newline after each lineof
a multiline command to prevent syntax errors on e.g.
pseudo defs.
May 27, 2009 - Fix error switch/case for handling gate point scaling.
gamma gates resulted in no points being accepted.
August 13, 2009 - Fix error in Strip chart spectrum was not requiring
that target parameter was defined.
- Fix error in strip chart shift. If shift is larger than spectrum
channel count would segfault.
Sep 4, 2009 - Fix BZ 378 - Segfaults can happen when cutting down the
Y parameters of a g2d spectrum to generate the title.
pre4:
October 11, 2009 - BZ 379 when SpecTcl started using double for parameters
in an event, filters broke. The fix allows both filters
from older and current versions of SpecTcl to be read.
October 14, 2009 - Strip chart spectrum was miscalculateing m_nOffset on
shifts to the left leaving gaps in the spectra for
continuously varying parameters.
December 4, 2009 - Fix error in XMWarningDialog::Create .. was referencing
button objects prior to ensuring they were created.
December 4, 2009 - BZ384 - Provide some fallback fonts in case the adobe-courier
family is not present.
BZ384 - Provide a const char* exception handler in main()
when caught displays a modal warning box with the
exception displayed and when dismissed exits Xamine.
- Throw an appropriate const char* exception when
no suitable fonts can be found in text.cc:LoadFonts
February 2, 2010 - Export CRingBufferDecoder.h to the world rather than
hiding it in noinst_HEADERS.
Feburary 11, 2010 - Modify data source GUI elements to include a data
format selector that includes support for ring so people
can attach to ring buffers or event files from the ring
buffer system.
pre6:
May 6, 2010 - Fold in KSU fix for tkcon problems on ubuntu 10.??
May 6, 2010 - Update to gri-2.12.20
May 14, 2010- Remove memswap usage in CIntegrateCommand.cpp.
- Remove all -lpub's from Makefile.am and includes.
- Fix buffer overflow (BZ 404) in griprint.c
pre7:
May 18, 2010 - Fix error in GUI spectrum usage calculation. Was under
calcluating summary spectrum usage.

3.3-004
November 14, 2011
- Increase the capacity of the integration widget in Xamine to
50,000 chars (Carpino request).
3.3-005
December 5, 2011
- TR 6912 - undo changes in dfltmgr.cc suggested by cppcheck specifically:
- assignment operator of win_*d infinitely recurses
- use memcpy instead which causes ccpcheck to complain about memcpy-ing objects
circumventing assignment. Must still see why the recursion occurs.
- The earlier assignment was ill motivated and did not actually change the caller's
win_xd for Xamine_CreatexdDefault.... functions as it just did pointer assignment
rather than actually transferring the attributes to the caller. This resulted in
unconditionally using a scatter plot rendition rather than the more usual color.
3.3-006
November 30-?? 2011
- Added flag to guistate.tcl so that new/treegui can ask it to
save without spectrum -delete and thus support the 'cumulate'
(sic) checkbutton.
- Fix errors in Stripchart spectrum shifting and channel caculation.
- Fix case in spectrum definition where we might ask Tcl to delete
storage we never allocated.

- Issue #1322 - Add product name to VERSION file e.g. SpecTcl-
3.3-013
- Issue #1451 - Re cast the Xamine shared memory region in terms of
the types in stdint.h - this due to observation that 64bit
shared memory requirements were significantly larger than
32 bit systems due to the use of architecture specific types.
- Issue #1328 - Remove SpecTcl's local instance of gri and require gri
be installed on systems using SpecTcl. Note that lack of gri will
result in warning at configuration/install time.
- Issue #1111 Add -rpaths in the case of links to shared libraries
that are may not be in the normal places (e.g. provided by --with
flags at build time).
- Issue #1142 - Remove all dependencies on BLT as this package will
likely become unavailable with Tcl 8.6 - which is now out of beta
test.
