Pike 8.0.610 beta/release candidate: https://pike.lysator.liu.se/pub/pike/beta/8.0.610/Pike-v8.0.610.tar.gz Other builds: https://pike.lysator.liu.se/pub/pike/beta/8.0.610/Pike-v8.0.610-Darwin-15.4… https://pike.lysator.liu.se/pub/pike/beta/8.0.610/Pike-v8.0.610-win32-oldli… Changes since Fridays build: Solaris build fix. If you have time you can rebuild for this Bill, but I'm actually quite OK with using the Friday binary builds for Mac and RH with this release if needed. Regards, -- Peter Bortas

Compile problem on illumos for 8.0.608
by H. William Welliver III 13 May '18

13 May '18

There seems to be one, possibly two compile problems on illumos (ex-opensolaris). I just verified that 8.0.498 compiles without error, however a fresh download of 8.0.608 fails with this error: #### Making dynamic: post_modules/Shuffler There's no master to handle the error. Dumping it raw: ({ /* 2 elements */ "Failed to fetch current path.\n", ({ /* 4 elements */ object(home/zino/hack/pike8-rel/pike/src/builtin.cmod:2442), object(home/zino/hack/pike8-rel/pike/src/builtin.cmod:2442), object(home/zino/hack/pike8-rel/pike/src/builtin.cmod:2442), object(home/zino/hack/pike8-rel/pike/src/builtin.cmod:2442) }) }) Makefile:89: recipe for target 'override' failed make[4]: *** [override] Error 10 Makefile:100: recipe for target 'Shuffler' failed make[3]: *** [Shuffler] Error 1 I have output of the pike invocation with -t saved here: http://bill.welliver.org/dist/pike/8.0.608-shuffler-trace.txt I haven’t tried to find the source of the problem yet; just wanted to signal that there might be an issue.

Pike 8.0.528 release candidate
by Peter Bortas 11 May '18

11 May '18

As is tradition a release has been prepared at the new years party with Champagne in one hand and keyboard in the other waiting for the clock to hit 24:00. Pike 8.0.528 release candidate: https://pike.lysator.liu.se/pub/pike/beta/8.0.528/Pike-v8.0.528.tar.gz Other builds: https://pike.lysator.liu.se/pub/pike/beta/8.0.528/Pike-v8.0.528-Darwin-15.4… https://pike.lysator.liu.se/pub/pike/beta/8.0.528/Pike-v8.0.528-win32-oldli… Real Mac build comes when Bill has time to have a look at that. Changes since Pike 8.0.498 (release 11) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- New Features ------------ o Sql.pgsql - Added support for PostgreSQL 10's stronger password authentication (SCRAM-SHA-256). - Slightly reduced overhead. - Support IEEE binary float database-wireformat. - Prevent new queries from starting in the local_backend. o Crypto.Hash.SCRAM New class to support SCRAM authentication. o Thread.ResourceCount New module to allow threadsafe race-condition-free counting of resources. o SSL.File Support query_fd() and set_buffer_mode() methods. o Toole.Standalone.check_http - Allow redirect responses. - Support --expect option. Bug fixes --------- o Compiler Improved variant robustness. o Calendar Updated tzdata to 2017c. o Crypto.CCM Fixed initialization of the iv. o Filesystem.Monitor - Fixed issue with next_poll being set to zero causing polling every second. - Fixed indexing the NULL value error when InotifyMonitor was used in combination with a filter_file() that doesn't accept everything. o HTTPLoop: Fixed some potential race conditions. o Image.Image - Improved argument checking in apply_curve(). Non-integer array values lead to use of uninitialized curve values. o Image.PVR Fixed size check for twiddled images. o MIME Support trailing newline in MIME part epilogues. o Protocols.HTTP Fixed incoming chunked transfers (timed async works now, chunk options are properly 'parsed'). o Protocols.LDAP Fixed race condition on initializing LDAPS. o Search.Utils Updated debug string format. o Sql.pgsql - Suppress spurious 'File not open' blurts on stderr when the connection is still pending and we inspect the connection object. - Signal EOF early before closing the SQL result portal and thoroughly cleanup bufcon/stashcount to prevent occasional deadlocks on asynchronous object destructions. - Suppress rare "access in destructed object" messages. - Rip out fundamentally flawed reconnect logic, made failures consistent. - Repair SSL connect logic. - Update documentation. - Repair fetch_row_array(). o mktime/System.TM Make timezone management consistent (especially UTC handling). o Standards.IIM Disabled debug output for unknown segment markers. o Stdio.send_file Improved support for TLS/SSL; wait for TLS handshake to complete before calling the sendfile done callback when sending an empty string. This fixes the issue where the connection got closed before TLS handshaking was completed, confusing the other side. o Image Creating images with mode "grey" now works as documented, e.g. Image.Image(10,10,"grey",123); Optimizations ------------- o mktime/System.TM Considerable speedup and a reduction in codesize. Building & Tools ---------------- o Image.SVG Fall back to using the unprefixed pkg-config if the arch-prefixed doesn't exist. o Mysql Support MariaDB 10.2 headerfiles. o precompile Support precompilation with Pike 8.1 again. o smartlink Fixed multiple issues on Darwin & NetBSD. o Whitefish Use the standard VPATH. o Yp Support using libtirpc. Glibc 2.26 has removed the Sun RPC implementation... Regards, -- Peter Bortas
