 CHANGES TO SOCKETSHR 0.9D   O This file describes changes to the SOCKETSHR interface to NETLIB that have been K made since version 0.9D, The Andy Harper modifications to the last official & release from the author Eckhart Meyer.   0.9D-5?  -------  * 01-Dec-1998 : INET.C8 		inet_addr() is not working for pure numeric addresses.+ 		Problem traced to uninitialized variable. . 		Have to be able to rebuid it with GCC 2.8.1.  : 		Location before beginning of array was being written to.  & 		Converted to compile with GCC 2.8.1.  
 		READDB.C, 		TRUE/FALSE are not defined in GCC headers.  
 		SI_SOCKET.C & 		Converted to compile with GCC 2.8.1.  5 		Added warning about getenv() in a loop to translate  		logical names.  
 		TRNLNM.C% 		Converted to compile with GCC 2.8.1    		SOCKET_NETLIB.C  		Misc. fixes.< 		SAMBA is doing a close(0).  Have to open("NLA0:") instead.     0.9D-4 ------  K * 10-JUN-1997 : Incorporated further fix from Michael Stenns to improve the A 		fix to the bind problem. This uses the underlying port if a non ; 		zero one is returned by the underlying stack otherwise it 5 		generates the random one in the range 30001->60000.   N * 10-JUN-1997 : Minor bug fixed up in LINK.COM whereby a missing close bracket< 		on the f$search call to find the DEC C compiler caused the> 		symbol HAVEDECC to be undefined. This could cause later link 		problems.      0.9D-3 ------  F * 04-JUN-1997 : Problem reported by Michael Stenns when BIND is calledA 		specifying a port of zero.  This is supposed to return a random > 		unused port by the underlying stack. Some, including CMU, do@ 		not, so SOCKETSHR attempts to allocate one when a zero port is; 		returned. The code to do this always returns a fixed port 7 		number (as long as no other sockets are opened in the > 		meantime). This prevents multiple copies of the same program@ 		running (since the local port is global) and also prevents the9 		same program being run until TCP times out the old port ; 		connection (can be up to 4 minutes). Fixed up the code to @ 		generate a more random port above 30000 based upon the current> 		time. There is a small probability that it might still clash< 		with someone else's port but that probability is much much 		lower than before.     0.9D-2 ------  E * 03-JUN-1997 : Modified the build procedure to take into account the < 		definition of the logical name DECC$CC_DEFAULT. If this isA 		defined to "/VAXC" or if DEC C is not found, then VAX C is used  		for compilation.  L * 03-JUN-1997 : Problem reported by Rob Puller that TYPES.H gave compilation= 		errors under VAX C.  Fixed this up by properly ifdefing the  		definition of time_t.   J * 03-JUN-1997 : Problem reported by Rob Puller that the changes to support@ 		VAX and ALPHA distinction (IE use of f$getsyi("ARCH_NAME")) do? 		not work on VMS 5.4-2 as this lexical does not exist. Changed + 		this to use f$getsyi("HW_MODEL") instead.      0.9D-1 ------  N * 02-JUN-1997 : Fixed problems with the getsockname and getpeername functions.A 		They were returning zeroes in the 1st two digits of the address ? 		due to the wrong type of parameter being passed to the netlib A 		routine NET_GET_INFO. The port paramters should be longword but 3 		were actually word, so overwriting was occurring.   M * 02-JUN-1997 : Modified various build procedures and header files to get the @ 		software to compile properly under Both VAX C and DEC C on VAX 		and ALPHA.   Andy Harper  Kings College London
