2022-07-15

If the Tcl callback script closes the dbus connection, the Tcl_DBusBus structure is freed. Any further use of a pointer pointing to the structure may result in a segmentation fault or panic. check-in: 558c829857 user: schelte tags: trunk, master
2019-01-11
12:43
New dispatch status changes raised while in the process of closing the dbus connection could lead to a segfault. check-in: 18f14dff09 user: schelte tags: trunk, master
2018-09-28
09:26
- Bumped version to 3.0 - Each dbus connect command now creates a new connection to the dbus. This change was needed to be able to use the new preferred way of monitoring the dbus using the BecomeMonitor method. - Improve error reporting by providing useful errorCodes. check-in: 061ad2decf user: schelte tags: trunk, master
2018-06-21
19:46
- Prepare for releasing dbus 2.2 check-in: f1a507c194 user: schelte tags: trunk, dbus-2-2, master
19:25
- Tcl_DBusErrorCode() prototype is also needed when DBUS_MEM_DEBUG is not defined. check-in: cc408621f7 user: schelte tags: trunk, master
19:23
- Messages should not silently pile up when the DBus connection has been closed by the remote end. check-in: 670718ca75 user: schelte tags: trunk, master
2017-07-06
20:07
- Accept symbolic values (like true, false, on, off, y, n) for boolean dbus arguments. check-in: 92d71c1d63 user: schelte tags: trunk, master
19:47

Restore error reporting to the previous situation. check-in: ff701df22a user: schelte tags: trunk, master
2017-03-19
14:45
Patch provided by chw: To resolve another possible issue in a threaded environment, move the index variable for generating bus handles to the tsd structure as well. Fix a memory leak. check-in: 49fcc4d49b user: schelte tags: trunk, master
2017-03-18
22:23
Follow the Tcl appartment threading model by using per thread (private) DBUS connections. This is achieved by putting the formerly static "bus" hash table into a thread specific struct as suggested by chw. check-in: dd935abd7d user: schelte tags: trunk, master
2017-03-17
20:52
- Make sure the initial NameAcquired signal is delivered to the application. check-in: 258efbe993 user: schelte tags: trunk, master
2017-03-16
20:23
- Updated version to 2.2. - Assign symbolic names to dbus connections (possible incompatibility) - Attach data to the dbus connection instead of a separate hash table. That way the data can be found if a dbus has an alternative name (like starter). - Fix incorrect size of allocated memory - Make sure initial signals (like NameAcquired) are reported without delay. - Turn fd into a Tcl_Channel for attaching event handlers to avoid problems when using threads. - Switch off the default libdbus behavior to terminate the application when the connection to one of the standard dbusses breaks. Applications that want this behavior can set up a handler for the Disconnect signal. - Protect callback execution from interp deletion while it is running. - Duplicate the callback script on definition to prevent issues when using threads. check-in: 6086e8cf09 user: schelte tags: trunk, master
2017-02-27
16:52
Switch to watching for dbus messages using a select-based setup instead of by polling. check-in: e362e82eff user: schelte tags: trunk, master

14:40
Clean up the Tcl timer in case the dbus library cancels the timeout. check-in: 785487f7df user: schelte tags: trunk, master

15:28
- Update to the latest TEA check-in: bd6eece2ac user: schelte tags: trunk, master

14:53

2015-04-25
14:32
- Allow method scripts to decide at runtime if the response will be given asynchronous or not. - Accept server addresses as dbus identifiers for all commands. - Bump version to 2.1. check-in: 06ac7273ed user: schelte tags: trunk

Silence compiler warning: integer constant is too large for 'long' type. https://sourceforge.net/p/dbus-tcl/bugs/4/ Thanks to Stuart Cassoff for reporting and providing the patch. check-in: 6f22faf9bc user: schelte tags: trunk
19:20
- Make sure type signatures and object paths are valid before passing them to dbus functions, because the library will panic on invalid values. check-in: 1596f252f2 user: schelte tags: trunk
