\item fixed a bug in calculating abstract overrides in child classes that could cause spurious errors (\href{https://github.com/qorelanguage/qore/issues/4338}{\texttt{ issue 4338}})
\item implemented the \mbox{\hyperlink{group__misc__functions_ga38a28ecec5a2dbd6c395ca90090f5d16}{Qore\+::parse\+\_\+url(string, \+\_\+\+\_\+7\+\_\+ int)}} variant to allow for percent decoding in URL strings (\href{https://github.com/qorelanguage/qore/issues/4332}{\texttt{ issue 4332}})
\item fixed C++ foreign thread registration APIs to support TID reuse to provide thread affinity for language modules such as Python and Java with successive rapid transitions into Qore in callbacks (\href{https://github.com/qorelanguage/qore/issues/4331}{\texttt{ issue 4331}})

\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item fixed stack size reporting for the initial thread on Linux; Linux autoextends the initial thread in any case, so a large stack size is reported (8MB) regardless of the actual stack size reported by pthreads APIs; this allows code that requires a larger stack to run normally on Linux platforms that allocate a small initial stack (such as Alpine, for example, current versions allocate a 128KiB stack which caused stack exceptions in Qore or recursion exceptions in Python to be thrown in the main thread with code that would otherwise work on Linux) (\href{https://github.com/qorelanguage/qore/issues/4325}{\texttt{ issue 4325}})

\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item fixed stack size reporting for the initial thread to reflect the actual stack size used instead of the default stack size for new threads; this allows the python module to correctly calculate the recusion depth for Python modules, allowing more Python modules to be loaded without changing the default stack size in single-\/threaded programs (\href{https://github.com/qorelanguage/qore/issues/4323}{\texttt{ issue 4323}})

\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item The \href{../../modules/ConnectionProvider/html/index.html}{\texttt{ Connection\+Provider}} module was updated with support for verbose option reporting and a connection cache; support for the deprecated constructor was removed from {\ttfamily Http\+Connection}, Http\+Based\+Connection, as well as from other connection classes
\item The \mbox{\hyperlink{group__filesystem__functions_ga834e1f95eb108bd6e4d564daecd68eda}{mkdir()}} function was modified to provide consistent behavior and a consistent return value with and without the {\itshape parents} argument; this function never throws an exception now, and always returns either {\ttfamily 0} (meaning no error occurred) or {\ttfamily 1} (meaning an error occurred) and no longer returns the number of directories created when {\itshape parents} = \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_True}{True}}. Use \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_dir_a9e9f05c88ac58cdbf027f8f4d8bcdc40}{Dir\+::create()}} to get the number of directories created as in previous versions of Qore; \begin{DoxySeeAlso}{See also}

\item Fixed broken \mbox{\hyperlink{group__list__functions_ga0bf214ec2c777032a6078bd979637e69}{range()}} and \mbox{\hyperlink{group__range__functions_gad5b4d3ad3f6c36d2e714bc6ed757a507}{xrange()}} where the upper limit of the range was included in the result for maximum compatibility with other languages. To get the old behavior, use the \mbox{\hyperlink{parse_directives_broken-range}{\%broken-\/range}} parse directive.
\item Floating-\/point values are always converted to strings with a decimal point; in previous releases of Qore, round floating-\/point values were converted to strings without any decimal point; i.\+e. {\ttfamily 1.\+0} will now be converted to {\ttfamily \char`\"{}1.\+0\char`\"{}} (in previous releases of Qore, it would be converted to simply {\ttfamily \char`\"{}1\char`\"{}})

\begin{DoxyParagraph}{Release Summary}
This is a major release of Qore with large portions of code subject to extensive optimizations leading to large memory and performance improvements along with more control of \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program}{Program}} logic containers, multithreading, and a \href{../../modules/reflection/html/index.html}{\texttt{ reflection API}}. This release breaks binary compatibility with older versions of Qore as well, requiring binary modules to support the new API and ABI.
\end{DoxyParagraph}
\hypertarget{release_notes_qore_09_compatibility}{}\doxysubsection{Changes That Can Affect Backwards-\/\+Compatibility}\label{release_notes_qore_09_compatibility}

\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{namespace_qore}{Qore}} classes and functions are now immutable once created; any attempt to add a new user variant to an existing function or method or to add new declarations to an existing class will result in a parse error.
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program}{Program}} objects now only support a single complete parse action (\mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program_a20eecce42e3661e7c837291b78c76006}{Program\+::parse()}} or \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program_a789d84e0f40137ad3b38064378b50e1b}{Program\+::parse\+Commit()}}); subsequent attempts to parse code into the same Program object will fail with an exception. If parsing fails due to a parse exception, the \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program}{Program}} object is generally no longer usable and must be recreated to be used.
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program_acc27af9225963f20947e0045186ecfb7}{Program\+::parse\+Rollback()}} is now deprecated; this action removes all user code and most builtin code from the \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program}{Program}} object; delete the object instead of using this method
\item the \mbox{\hyperlink{qore_classes_transient}{transient}} keyword has been introduced to support control over \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_serializable}{object serialization}}; see also \mbox{\hyperlink{parse_directives_no-transient}{\%no-\/transient}}

\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item Up to 70\% reduced memory usage in Qore programs through\+:
\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item Extensive memory optimizations
\item Changing the default thread stack size from 8 MB to 512 KB (\href{https://github.com/qorelanguage/qore/issues/2701}{\texttt{ issue 2701}})
\item Eliminating heap-\/allocated, atomic-\/reference-\/counted integer and floating-\/point values resulted in reduced memory usage as well as faster runtime execution
\end{DoxyItemize}
\item \href{../../modules/reflection/html/index.html}{\texttt{ Reflection API}}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_serializable}{Data and object serialization}} support\+:

\item All objects from classes inheriting \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_serializable}{Serializable}} can be serialized
\item Class members declared with the \mbox{\hyperlink{qore_classes_transient}{transient}} keyword (new in this release) will not be serialized but instead will get their default values when deserialized
\item Classes can define their own local serialization and deserialization logic by defining the \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_serializable_ac4fbeb5f2af542520106c448246a2fc0}{serialize\+Members()}} and \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_serializable_a7d59dd31c2e7f9a06eafb995db5b1381}{deserialize\+Members()}} methods, respectively

\begin{DoxyParagraph}{Release Summary}
Major new features and bug fixes including input and output stream support and sigificant new functionality including several new modules.

\hypertarget{release_notes_qore_0813_compatibility}{}\doxysubsection{Changes That Can Affect Backwards-\/\+Compatibility}\label{release_notes_qore_0813_compatibility}

\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item fixed broken \mbox{\hyperlink{statements_continue}{continue}} and \mbox{\hyperlink{statements_break}{break}} statements that were accepted anywhere in the source and behaved like a \mbox{\hyperlink{statements_return}{return}} statement; now such statements outside a loop context will result in a parse exception; to get the old behavior, use \mbox{\hyperlink{parse_directives_broken-loop-statement}{\%broken-\/loop-\/statement}} in your source code
\item fixed broken \mbox{\hyperlink{data_type_declarations_reference_type}{reference}} and \mbox{\hyperlink{data_type_declarations_reference_or_nothing_type}{$\ast$reference}} type restrictions which had no effect prior to this release; to get the old behavior, use \mbox{\hyperlink{parse_directives_broken-references}{\%broken-\/references}} in your source code
\item the random number generator is always seeded with a random number when the \mbox{\hyperlink{namespace_qore}{Qore}} library is initialized; to get a predictable sequence from \mbox{\hyperlink{group__library__functions_ga6ed36f08f41864dfe007504e8b4ff5c3}{rand()}}, you must explicitly seed the random number generator by calling \mbox{\hyperlink{group__library__functions_gae6dd9a1ccae25a097d61cf0575161075}{srand()}} with a predefined seed number
\item the \mbox{\hyperlink{threading_synchronized}{synchronized}} keyword now operates differently depending on the context; {\ttfamily {\bfseries{synchronized}}} functions have a global reentrant lock associated with the function (as in previous versions of Qore), whereas now {\ttfamily {\bfseries{synchronized}}} normal class methods share a reentrant lock associated with the object, while {\ttfamily {\bfseries{synchronized}}} static class methods share a reentrant lock associated with the class itself. This aligns Qore\textquotesingle{}s \mbox{\hyperlink{threading_synchronized}{synchronized}} behavior with that of Java and {\ttfamily \mbox{[}Method\+Impl(Method\+Impl\+Options.\+Synchronized)\mbox{]}} .NET/\+CLR (\href{https://github.com/qorelanguage/qore/issues/894}{\texttt{ issue 894}}).
\item classes may not have the name {\ttfamily \char`\"{}auto\char`\"{}} due to the introduction of this identifier as a special type name
\item a new keyword \mbox{\hyperlink{hashdecl}{hashdecl}} has been introduced to support type-\/safe hash declarations
\end{DoxyItemize}\hypertarget{release_notes_qore_0813_new_features}{}\doxysubsection{New Features in Qore}\label{release_notes_qore_0813_new_features}

\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item complex type support
\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{hashdecl}{type safe hashes}} (\mbox{\hyperlink{data_type_declarations_hash_hashdecl_type}{Type-\/\+Safe Hash Type}}); ex\+: 
\begin{DoxyCode}{0}
\DoxyCodeLine{hash<MyInfo> = get\_info(); }

\end{DoxyCode}

\item new system types\+:
\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{struct_qore_1_1_call_stack_info}{Call\+Stack\+Info}}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{struct_qore_1_1_date_time_info}{Date\+Time\+Info}}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{struct_qore_1_1_dir_stat_info}{Dir\+Stat\+Info}}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{struct_qore_1_1_exception_info}{Exception\+Info}}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{struct_qore_1_1_filesystem_info}{Filesystem\+Info}}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{struct_qore_1_1_iso_week_info}{Iso\+Week\+Info}}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{struct_qore_1_1_stat_info}{Stat\+Info}}
\end{DoxyItemize}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{data_type_declarations_hash_complex_type}{hash with type-\/safe values}}; ex\+: 
\begin{DoxyCode}{0}
\DoxyCodeLine{hash<string, int> h = (\textcolor{stringliteral}{"{}str"{}}: 1); }

\end{DoxyCode}

\item \mbox{\hyperlink{data_type_declarations_list_complex_type}{list with type-\/safe values}}; ex\+: 
\begin{DoxyCode}{0}
\DoxyCodeLine{list<int> l = (1); }

\end{DoxyCode}

\item \mbox{\hyperlink{data_type_declarations_reference_complex_type}{reference with type-\/safe lvalues}}; ex\+: 
\begin{DoxyCode}{0}
\DoxyCodeLine{int i = 1; reference<int> r = \(\backslash\)i; }

\end{DoxyCode}

\item \mbox{\hyperlink{data_type_declarations_auto_type}{auto}} (allows any value including complex types to be assigned without losing complex type information); ex\+: 
\begin{DoxyCode}{0}
\DoxyCodeLine{auto l = (1, 2); }

\end{DoxyCode}

\item improved \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_new}{new}}, \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_cast}{cast\texorpdfstring{$<$}{<}\texorpdfstring{$>$}{>}}}, and \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_instanceof}{instanceof}} operators
\item the \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_instanceof}{instanceof}} operator now works with any type; ex\+: 
\begin{DoxyCode}{0}
\DoxyCodeLine{bool b = v instanceof hash<string, int>; }

\end{DoxyCode}

\item note that complex type information is lost when assigning to an lvalue with a compatible but more generic type or by assigning to an untyped lvalue; this was necessary to allow complex types to be introduced in Qore without breaking backwards compatibility.

\hypertarget{release_notes_qore_0812_compatibility}{}\doxysubsection{Changes That Can Affect Backwards-\/\+Compatibility}\label{release_notes_qore_0812_compatibility}

\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item fixed broken list parsing; in previous releases, Qore\textquotesingle{}s parser re-\/wrote lists without parentheses used as top-\/level statements with certain assignment operators (\mbox{\hyperlink{operators_assignment_operator}{=}}, \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_plus_equals_operator}{+=}}, \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_minus_equals_operator}{-\/=}}, \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_multiply_equals_operator}{$\ast$=}}, and \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_divide_equals_operator}{/=}}, but not with others) so that statements like {\ttfamily list l = 1, 2, 3;} were valid assignments. Due to operator precedence, such statements should normally be interpreted as {\ttfamily (list l = 1), 2, 3;}, which is not a valid expression. Not only were the rules applied with only some assignment operators, but such lists were only rewritten if used as top-\/level statements, therefore the rules were applied inconsistenctly depending on where the expression was located in the parse tree. As of Qore 0.\+8.\+12, these inconsistencies have been eliminated by default from Qore; all lists are processed according to the precedence rules defined in \mbox{\hyperlink{operators}{Operators}}. This could break old code that relied on the old, broken behavior. To get the old behavior, use the \mbox{\hyperlink{parse_directives_broken-list-parsing}{\%broken-\/list-\/parsing}} parse directive.
\item fixed broken \mbox{\hyperlink{data_type_declarations_int_type}{int}} and \mbox{\hyperlink{data_type_declarations_softint_type}{softint}} assignments; previously runtime type errors with these type restrictions were ignored and all values were silently converted to integers for the assignment, now runtime type errors are thrown according to the original design. Parse errors are detected as before. This could break old code that relied on the old, broken behavior. To get the old behavior, use the \mbox{\hyperlink{parse_directives_broken-int-assignments}{\%broken-\/int-\/assignments}} parse directive.
\item fixed broken multi-\/character operator parsing; the Qore parser has been updated to no longer accept multi-\/character operators with whitespace between the chacters making up the operator; it is believed that this was never used and simply caused the parser to be needlessly complicated and caused Qore to be less compatible with other languages. To get the old behavior, use the \mbox{\hyperlink{parse_directives_broken-operators}{\%broken-\/operators}} parse directive.
\item the \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_push}{push}}, \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_unshift}{unshift}}, \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_pop}{pop}} and \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_shift}{shift}} operators now throw an exception when their first operand is not a list and \mbox{\hyperlink{parse_directives_strict-args}{\%strict-\/args}} is in effect
\end{DoxyItemize}\hypertarget{release_notes_qore_0812_new_features}{}\doxysubsection{New Features in Qore}\label{release_notes_qore_0812_new_features}

\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item Added the \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_value_coalescing_operator}{Value Coalescing Operator (?$\ast$)}} which checks first argument if it evaluates to \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_False}{False}} with \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1zzz8valuezzz9_a3a66486cee14aa073cf90fbed5a23edd}{Qore\+::zzz8valuezzz9\+::val()}} and if so assigns the second argument. The operator can be further chained; for example\+: 
\begin{DoxyCode}{0}
\DoxyCodeLine{expr1 ?* expr2 ?* expr3 }

\end{DoxyCode}

\item Added the \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_null_coalescing_operator}{Null Coalescing Operator (??)}} which checks the first operand for \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_nothing}{NOTHING}} or \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_null}{NULL}}; if true returns the second argument. The operator can be further chained, in which case the first operand with a value is returned; ex\+: 
\begin{DoxyCode}{0}
\DoxyCodeLine{expr1 ?? expr2 ?? expr3 }

\end{DoxyCode}

\item Qore identifiers can now begin with an underscore character {\ttfamily \char`\"{}\+\_\+\char`\"{}}; the following is now a valid (with \mbox{\hyperlink{parse_directives_new-style}{\%new-\/style}})\+: 
\begin{DoxyCode}{0}
\DoxyCodeLine{int \_var = 1;}

\end{DoxyCode}

\item hash enhancements\+:
\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item new syntax for an expression giving an empty hash\+: {\ttfamily \{\}}; for example\+: 
\begin{DoxyCode}{0}
\DoxyCodeLine{hash h = \{\};}

\end{DoxyCode}

\item new literal hash support\+: hashes can now be given as literal values as follows\+: 
\begin{DoxyCode}{0}
\DoxyCodeLine{(<key\_expr>: <val\_expr>, [...]) }

\end{DoxyCode}
 For example\+: 
\begin{DoxyCode}{0}
\DoxyCodeLine{\textcolor{keywordflow}{return} (get\_key(): get\_value()); }

\end{DoxyCode}
 in the past the keys in literal hashes had to be either a string or a constant; now any valid Qore expression can be used to generate the hash keys at runtime
\item new hash syntax; hash elements can now be enclosed by curly brackets as well as regular parentheses; the version with curly brackets when used with the \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_hmap}{map}} operator results in the hash version of the map operator being used
\item Added new \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_hmap}{hash version of the map}} operator to build a hash from a list or iterator expression; ex\+: 
\begin{DoxyCode}{0}
\DoxyCodeLine{hash h = map \{\$1, h2.\$1\}, i; }

\end{DoxyCode}

\end{DoxyItemize}
\item implemented support for loading user modules in a pre-\/defined \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program}{Program}} object (that can have a custom API) in the following new functions and methods\+:
\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{group__misc__functions_ga59d94b7cc4dfcc6e39030097458b8afe}{load\+\_\+user\+\_\+module\+\_\+with\+\_\+program()}}

\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program_a300ffe0abd0b09cc39feb637a9bab9ba}{Program\+::load\+Apply\+To\+User\+Module()}}

\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_data_line_iterator}{Qore\+::\+Data\+Line\+Iterator}}

\end{DoxyItemize}
\item removed support for the C++ {\ttfamily QDBI\+\_\+\+METHOD\+\_\+\+ABORT\+\_\+\+TRANSACTION\+\_\+\+START} DBI method; transactions are always assumed to be in progress even if an exec call throws an exception in the first statement in a new transaction; this is necessary to handle bulk DML where a single statement can partially succeed and partially fail; the ABI remains unchanged; drivers that set this DBI method will no longer have it called because it\textquotesingle{}s not necessary; in the upcoming API/\+ABI change this C++ DBI method will be removed entirely
\item added support for \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_unary_plus_operator}{unary plus}}
\item added support for empty private blocks in classes

\item \href{../../modules/HttpServer/html/index.html}{\texttt{ Http\+Server}} module fixes\+:
\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item fixed a bug setting the response encoding in Http\+Server\+::set\+Reply\+Headers() where the Socket encoding was not set properly and therefore the encoding in the Content-\/\+Type in the response header did not necessarily match the encoding of the response
\item fixed a socket / connection performance problem with HTTPS listeners where the SSL connection was being negotiated inline with the accept instead of in the connection thread, thereby blocking new connections from being accepted
\item fixed bugs where URI strings were improperly encoded and decoded (also fixed in the \href{../../modules/RestClient/html/index.html}{\texttt{ Rest\+Client}} module)
\item fixed a bug in the \href{../../modules/HttpServer/html/index.html}{\texttt{ Http\+Server}} module where chunked sends were not received and decoded properly in all cases for handlers that did not explicitly handle chunked messages
\item fixed a bug in Http\+Server\+::add\+Listener() with an integer argument; a UNIX socket was opened instead of a wildcard listener on the given port
\item fixed typos causing bugs in HTTP error logging (\href{https://github.com/qorelanguage/qore/issues/308}{\texttt{ issue 308}})
\item fixed a bug formatting IPv6 host addresses in the return value to {\ttfamily Http\+Server\+::http\+\_\+get\+\_\+url\+\_\+from\+\_\+bind()} (\href{https://github.com/qorelanguage/qore/issues/821}{\texttt{ issue 821}})
\end{DoxyItemize}
\item \href{../../modules/RestClient/html/index.html}{\texttt{ Rest\+Client}} module fixes\+:

\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item Abstract\+Schema\+::combine\+Options() fails when an option variable contains \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_nothing}{NOTHING}} instead of a valid hash
\item fixed a bug with {\itshape \char`\"{}insert-\/only reference data\char`\"{}} with the verbose option; the upsert strategy was changed to {\ttfamily Upsert\+Select\+First} which means that insert-\/only reference data could also be updated

\item fixed a bug retrieving foreign constraints; columns were not guaranteed to be returned in declaration order
\item fixed a bug handling tablespaces in unique constraints
\item fixed a bug handling {\ttfamily \char`\"{}time\char`\"{}} columns; they were being issued as {\ttfamily \char`\"{}time6\char`\"{}} instead of \char`\"{}time(6)\char`\"{} (\href{https://github.com/qorelanguage/qore/issues/385}{\texttt{ issue 385}})

\item fixed a bug where a class calling an overridden method in a base class constructor that referred to a member that should have been initialized in the subclass would be executed before the subclass\textquotesingle{}s members were initialized causing the method call to fail
\item fixed a memory leak in classes with multiple inheritance and base classes that are inherited multiple times with member initialization
\item fixed a bug in the \mbox{\hyperlink{parse_directives_include}{\%include}} and \mbox{\hyperlink{parse_directives_append-module-path}{\%append-\/module-\/path}} parse directives where relative paths were not calculated from the script\textquotesingle{}s directory but instead were calculated from the current working directory, causing such paths to fail
\item fixed a bug in \mbox{\hyperlink{group__misc__functions_gae26cd49aefdf85e6bb59cabe986515a0}{Qore\+::get\+\_\+qore\+\_\+library\+\_\+info()}} that could cause a crash due to treating the {\itshape Build} attribute as a string when it was an integer
\item fixed a bug in the \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_divide_equals_operator}{divide-\/equals (/=) operator}} where an exception was not thrown when an operand of zero with arbitrary-\/precision numeric arguments is used
\item fixed a bug where the connection mode would be reset for every connection in the \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_ftp_client}{Qore\+::\+Ftp\+Client}} class
\item fixed a bug in the \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_ftp_client}{Qore\+::\+Ftp\+Client}} class where connection problems in the data channel when executing certain FTP commands could cause a crash due to missing error checking
\item fixed a bug in \mbox{\hyperlink{namespace_qore}{Qore}}\textquotesingle{}s internal strcasestr() function on platforms that do not support this function (ex\+: Solaris) that could result in a crash
\item fixed a bug in \mbox{\hyperlink{namespace_qore}{Qore}} where string data formatted with {\ttfamily \%n}, {\ttfamily \%N}, or {\ttfamily \%y} could be added to another string with a different character encoding without any automatic conversions, therefore resulting in an improperly-\/encoded string
\item fixed a crash when parsing when parsing function, method, or closure arguments when either of the \mbox{\hyperlink{warnings_duplicate-local-vars}{duplicate-\/local-\/vars}} or \mbox{\hyperlink{warnings_duplicate-block-vars}{duplicate-\/block-\/vars}} warnings are set due to an error handling thread-\/local variable info in parse initialization
\item fixed a bug where code with mixed coding styles (old and new) could result in invalid parse errors when parsing base class constructor calls to a base class defined in another coding style
\item fixed a bug where an HTTP response with an unknown {\ttfamily Content-\/\+Encoding} header would cause a crash
\item fixed a memory error with receiving HTTP chunked data with receive callbacks where the buffer object was reset with reference counts \texorpdfstring{$>$}{>} 1
\item fixed a bug in the \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_ftp_client}{Ftp\+Client}} class where socket errors would not cause the connection to be closed automatically and therefore further use of the object required a manual disconnect even though the object supports transparent auto-\/reconnection
\item fixed a bug where conversions from float to number would introduce inaccuracy in the arbitrary-\/precision number; ex\+: {\ttfamily 737.\+38.\+to\+Number() -\/\texorpdfstring{$>$}{>} 737.\+3799999999999954525264911353588104248}

\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_dir}{Qore\+::\+Dir}}
\item module importing and include file handling
\end{DoxyItemize}

\item adjusted the stack guard buffer for x86\+\_\+64 from 20K -\/\texorpdfstring{$>$}{>} 32K which solved some rare crashes related to stack exhaustion (ex\+: make check works consistently now on x86\+\_\+64 Linux)
\item fixed a bug handling HTTP send callbacks that returned zero-\/length strings and binary objects which would cause invalid chunked data to be sent violating the HTTP protocol
\item fixed a bug in the \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_s_q_l_1_1_datasource_pool_a953480807dbdafae0808a6c47014c0d6}{Datasource\+Pool\+::get\+Server\+Version()}} method where the connection to the server was not guaranteed to be in place before the call, in case of connection errors in the pool a crash could result

\item fixed bugs in \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_socket_a39eb3993cde9b9e0096412d1edbc3a57}{Qore\+::\+Socket\+::accept()}} and \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_socket_adb234af8e02eee33b15a55f0ad37f690}{Qore\+::\+Socket\+::accept\+SSL()}} where the SSL configuration was not copied to the new \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_socket}{Qore\+::\+Socket}}
\item fixed some object encapsulation violation bugs where access to methods of a privately-\/inherited class was allowed from a subclass in certain situations
\item fixed inconsistent object encapsulation enforcement with method references; if a reference to a method is created inside the class, then when executed the call inherits the access rights at the time of creation
\item fixed inconsistent thread gating for code data structures in \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program}{Program}} containers that could have theoretically lead to crashes in \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program}{Program}} containers that parse code while threads are running
\item fixed a bug in \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program_a9a2e3da4029c50643169cbb72e57f494}{Qore\+::\+Program\+::import\+Function()}} with function names with a namespace path
\item fixed a bug in closure calls when a closure is called from within a closure and referes to closure-\/bound locally variables in the internal closure call which would previously result in a crash
\item fixed a parse-\/time memory leak in call reference calls when the callable object is resolved from a class constant
\item fixed a bug in maintaining the conditional compilation status when parsing \mbox{\hyperlink{parse_directives_include}{\%include}} directives and \mbox{\hyperlink{parse_directives_requires}{\%requires}} directives with user modules
\item fixed an obscure bug when a thread terminates in a \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program}{Program}} object after the Program container itself has already been deleted where the termination would hang while waiting for the Program\textquotesingle{}s thread count to reach zero while the last thread doing the waiting also held the last thread reference
\item fixed a bug where incompatible class definitions were not verified at parse time which could cause a crash in debug builds and unpredictable behavior in non-\/debug builds
\item fixed a race condition in finalizing thread-\/local data in \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program}{Program}} objects during Program destruction that could lead to a runtime crash
\item fixed a crash when user modules have recursive dependencies
\item fixed a bug with \mbox{\hyperlink{parse_directives_push-parse-options}{\%push-\/parse-\/options}} when used multiple times in the same file; now multiple appearances of this parse directive are ignored
\item fixed a bug initializing static class variables in the parse commit phase where a crash could result due to an error in managing parse commit dependencies
\item fixed \mbox{\hyperlink{group__filesystem__functions_ga1f94b219bfc67a292a80cafcd2416ee5}{Qore\+::is\+\_\+writable()}}\+:

\item fixed a bug in \mbox{\hyperlink{group__string__functions_ga3461a37dbd3d51bc03e58b85daae2466}{Qore\+::regex\+\_\+extract()}} and in the \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_regex_extract_operator}{Regular Expression Pattern Extraction Operator}} where the result buffer was not resized when it was too small, limiting regular expressions to nine subpatterns; the maximum has been raised to between 90 and 100 before an exception is raised (since the subpattern buffer is allocated on the stack, we need to enforce a limit)
\item fixed a bug with the \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_cast}{cast\texorpdfstring{$<$}{<}\texorpdfstring{$>$}{>}() operator where compatible classes were not recognized at runtime that would otherwise be recognized correctly without the cast}}
\item fixed the return type in \mbox{\hyperlink{group__filesystem__functions_ga891ce19bfbec289e7ef2a1e20d44ba4a}{Qore\+::getcwd()}} to \mbox{\hyperlink{data_type_declarations_string_or_nothing_type}{$\ast$string}}
\item fixed a bug in the \mbox{\hyperlink{statements_return}{return statement}} where the runtime return type was used at parse time which did not work when parsing embedded code
\item fixed a bug validating return values in method evaluation that could lead to a qore crash
\item fixed a bug in the \mbox{\hyperlink{parse_directives_requires}{\%requires}} directive when applied to builtin features where code to manage user module dependencies was inappropriately applied
\item fixed a bug nesting 3 levels or more of parse conditionals (\mbox{\hyperlink{parse_directives_ifdef}{\%ifdef}} and \mbox{\hyperlink{parse_directives_ifndef}{\%ifndef}}) where the conditional parse state could be lost (and an assertion was made in debug mode)
\item fixed a bug where ==, \texorpdfstring{$>$}{>}, and \texorpdfstring{$<$}{<} operators applied type precedence incorrectly when applying optimizations at parse time in relation to arbitrary-\/precision numeric values
\item fixed a static memory leak in the parser handling out of line method declarations
\item fixed a bug in handling socket disconnection errors in SSL operations where the SSL helper object was deleted and then used causing a crash
\item fixed a bug where \mbox{\hyperlink{deprecated}{Deprecated List}} and \mbox{\hyperlink{warnings_return-value-ignored}{return-\/value-\/ignored}} warnings were reported at the incorrect source location
\item fixed a bug in \mbox{\hyperlink{group__threading__functions_gae83c32576b59a1ecfa906d9b3c3af557}{Qore\+::set\+\_\+thread\+\_\+init()}} where thread initialization did not occur when foreign threads attached to a \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program}{Qore\+::\+Program}} object with thread initialization set
\item fixed a bug in call references and objects by replacing string references to the containing Program object with weak references which solved a recursive reference / memory leak issue
\item fixed a memory leak when a thread init call reference was used with \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program}{Qore\+::\+Program}} objects
\item fixed bugs in \mbox{\hyperlink{namespace_qore}{Qore}} SSL socket handling when the remote connection is disconnected while performing an SSL upgrade (client or server) that could cause a crash
\item fixed a bug where the sending an invalid HTTP header to the \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_socket_a3e3d6f1bda0a9b6aaf92c5859c94a01d}{Qore\+::\+Socket\+::send\+HTTPResponse()}} method could cause a crash
\item fixed bugs in \mbox{\hyperlink{group__library__functions_ga45e8c0b1cd4f673e5f72ce758bc84378}{system()}}\+:
\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item the shell was not being used to execute commands with commands where shell meta-\/characters were not found with a manual search which caused such commands to fail; additionally {\ttfamily \&} (ampersand) characters were not recognized as shell meta-\/characters
\item fixed problems with signal handling in child processes on UNIXes\+: \mbox{\hyperlink{group__library__functions_ga45e8c0b1cd4f673e5f72ce758bc84378}{system()}} now always performs a {\ttfamily fork(2)}, enables all signals, and calls {\ttfamily execl(\char`\"{}/bin/sh\char`\"{}, \char`\"{}sh\char`\"{}, \char`\"{}-\/c\char`\"{}, }{\itshape command}{\ttfamily , 0)} in the child process (on UNIX systems; on Windows, system(3) is used directly as before)
\end{DoxyItemize}
\item fixed a race condition in the \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_s_q_l_1_1_datasource_pool}{Datasource\+Pool}} class when opening new datasources after a connection error in the first datasource which could cause a crash. Now the first datasource is no longer a \char`\"{}special\char`\"{} datasource used for configuration information; configuration information is contained in a separate object which serves as an internal Datasource factory
\item fixed a problem where {\ttfamily SIGCHLD} was blocked by default which caused deadlocks when spawning child processes that in turn waited on grandchild processes -\/ now Qore no longer blocks {\ttfamily SIGCHLD} on UNIX platforms
\item fixed a bug in Binary\+Node\+::clear() where the internal pointer was freed but not set to 0 leading to a subsequent crash when the object is destroyed; affected HTTPClient chunked reads of binary data when used with a callback
\item fixed a bug where the runtime exception location could be reported in the wrong location
\item fixed a bug where the bzip2 library can request a buffer size that could not be handled by the bzip2 library which is not handled by qore and causes a crash while decompressing certain input
\item fixed a bug handling closure-\/bound local variables when closures are created in the background operator expression that caused a core dump
\item fixed the precedence of the \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_assignment_operator}{assignment operator (=)}}; now the precedence of this operator is the same as the other assignment operators (\mbox{\hyperlink{operators_plus_equals_operator}{+=}}, \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_minus_equals_operator}{-\/=}}, \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_multiply_equals_operator}{$\ast$=}}, and \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_divide_equals_operator}{/=}}, etc); this does not break any code, but does align Qore with other programming languages (such as C, among others) and allows for expressions such as 
\begin{DoxyCode}{0}
\DoxyCodeLine{a = b += 2}

\end{DoxyCode}
 to be correctly parsed
\item fixed a parse-\/time bug in the \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_trim}{trim operator}} where the operator\textquotesingle{}s return type was incorrectly returned as \mbox{\hyperlink{data_type_declarations_int_type}{int}} instead of the type of the lvalue
\item fixed a bug initializing object members with a closure that refers to {\itshape self} 
\item fixed bugs in the documentation and return types of\+:
\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_read_only_file_a149f83530ad4d521af205a711253662c}{Qore\+::\+Read\+Only\+File\+::read\+Binary\+File()}}

\end{DoxyItemize}
\item fixed a bug in \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_get_opt_a7cf8b59f132e46becf27c6fed8aca8c0}{Qore\+::\+Get\+Opt\+::parse(softlist$<$auto$>$)}}, \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_get_opt_a90201aa27548f5b48a3075de662f9af1}{Qore\+::\+Get\+Opt\+::parse2(softlist$<$auto$>$)}}, and \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_get_opt_a2379fe4c09b459371c9dc22d52f1dbf7}{Qore\+::\+Get\+Opt\+::parse3(softlist$<$auto$>$)}} where call-\/by-\/value and copy-\/on-\/write semantics were not enforced and a shared list argument could be modified
\item fixed a bug in zoneinfo file parsing where invalid bands with no UTC offset changes against the previous band could cause invalid date/time values to be displayed by \mbox{\hyperlink{namespace_qore}{Qore}} for dates on the invalid transition
\item fixed a bug where imported global variables (\mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program_a5db34046e2722a8519642ad98f412ed3}{Qore\+::\+Program\+::import\+Global\+Variable()}}) were added to the pending global variable list and therefore were removed if a parse exception occurred, hwoever the namespace indexes remained, which could lead to unexpected problems at runtime including a crash. Additionally the pending global variable list was not checked which could lead to a memory leak if the a single global variable name is pending, imported, and then committed to the \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program}{Program}} object.
\item fixed memory errors managing program feature lists in the Char\+Ptr\+List class by copying string memory instead of using sometimes temporary values in the list
\item fixed minor bugs with directive parsing, mostly related to error reporting
\item fixed bugs in relative date arithmetic where operands were swapped with the \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_minus_operator}{-\/ operator}} if the first operand was a \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_relative_dates}{relative date/time value}}, additionally an operation with the \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_minus_operator}{-\/ operator}} where the first operand is a \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_relative_dates}{relative date}} and the second operand is a \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_absolute_dates}{absolute date}} is now calculated using the \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_absolute_dates}{absolute date}}\textquotesingle{}s epoch offset (offset in seconds and microseconds from {\ttfamily 1970-\/01-\/01Z}), and a \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_relative_dates}{relative date/time value}} is produced
\item fixed a bug normalizing the result of date arithmetic between hour and minute components of \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_relative_dates}{relative date/time value}}
\item fixed a bug where time components of absolute date/time values before the UNIX epoch were returned with invalid values
\item fixed a bug where the \mbox{\hyperlink{parse_directives_exec-class}{\%exec-\/class}} directive did not check for classes with unimplemented abstract variants
\item fixed a bug where the \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_push}{push}} and \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_unshift}{unshift}} operators applied to a variable declared as softlist did not use the default value
\item fixed a bug where calls to \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_h_t_t_p_client_a59c32a1cb1c23f5616a57c7b349521ef}{Qore\+::\+HTTPClient\+::set\+Connect\+Timeout()}} had no effect (\href{https://github.com/qorelanguage/qore/issues/323}{\texttt{ issue 323}})
\item fixed several bugs with logical comparison operators and arbitrary-\/precision numeric values (\href{https://github.com/qorelanguage/qore/issues/330}{\texttt{ issue 330}})
\item fixed a bug where \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_hash_list_iterator}{Qore\+::\+Hash\+List\+Iterator}} (and therefore \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1zzz8hashzzz9_aab3d2e6e69d212dbe05de43136f14367}{Qore\+::zzz8hashzzz9\+::context\+Iterator()}}) would not iterate a simple hash with non-\/list values once but would instead silently ignore the hash (\href{https://github.com/qorelanguage/qore/issues/336}{\texttt{ issue 336}})
\item fixed a bug where a warning was not always issued when square brackets were used on unsuitable types (\href{https://github.com/qorelanguage/qore/issues/184}{\texttt{ issue 184}}), internally ported the square bracket operator to the C++ Qore\+Operator\+Node hierarchy
\item fixed a bug handling return type information for method and pseudo-\/method calls; uninitialized memory could be used which could cause a runtime crash (\href{https://github.com/qorelanguage/qore/issues/364}{\texttt{ issue 364}})
\item corrected the name of the \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_modulo_operator}{modulo operator}} (was incorrectly referred to as the \char`\"{}modula\char`\"{} operator earlier\+: \href{}{\texttt{ issue 389}})
\item fixed a bug handling identifiers in parentheses used to dereference hashes or objects; the identifer is not resolved properly whereas previoulsy it was incorrectly interpreted as a string literal (\href{https://github.com/qorelanguage/qore/issues/416}{\texttt{ issue 416}})
\item fixed a bug with handling local variables in const initializers (\href{https://github.com/qorelanguage/qore/issues/421}{\texttt{ issue 421}})
\item fixed a bug where {\ttfamily select(2)} was called after {\ttfamily EINTR} without reinitializing the descriptor array argument (\href{https://github.com/qorelanguage/qore/issues/435}{\texttt{ issue 435}})
\item fixed a crashing bug on all platforms where select(2) was being called with socket descriptor values \texorpdfstring{$>$}{>} {\ttfamily FD\+\_\+\+SETSIZE} (\href{https://github.com/qorelanguage/qore/issues/436}{\texttt{ issue 436}})
\item fixed inconsistencies \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_reldate_comparisons}{comparing relative date/time values}} (\href{https://github.com/qorelanguage/qore/issues/437}{\texttt{ issue 437}})
\item fixed a bug where \mbox{\hyperlink{statements_on_exit}{on\+\_\+exit Statements}} and \mbox{\hyperlink{statements_on_error}{on\+\_\+error Statements}} statements were not being executed if an exception was raised in an earlier-\/executed \mbox{\hyperlink{statements_on_exit}{on\+\_\+exit Statements}}, \mbox{\hyperlink{statements_on_error}{on\+\_\+error Statements}}, or \mbox{\hyperlink{statements_on_success}{on\+\_\+success Statements}} statement (\href{https://github.com/qorelanguage/qore/issues/380}{\texttt{ issue 380}})
\item fixed a bug where \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_h_t_t_p_client_a57659816b4f87cdffd79fbe58e5feecc}{Qore\+::\+HTTPClient\+::get()}} and \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_h_t_t_p_client_a5e17cd9c2e09d07c070d8c4d59ce15d8}{Qore\+::\+HTTPClient\+::post()}} would try to retrieve a message body even if {\ttfamily Content-\/\+Length\+: 0} was returned (or if no {\ttfamily Content-\/\+Length} header was returned at all) which would result in a deadlock until the server would close the connection (\href{https://github.com/qorelanguage/qore/issues/434}{\texttt{ issue 434}})
\item fixed a bug where regular expression substitution would go into an infinite loop when used with an empty pattern and the global flag (\mbox{\hyperlink{group__regex__constants_gaea655c36090c9f1e6bb24cb8de998a04}{Qore\+::\+RE\+\_\+\+Global}}, \href{https://github.com/qorelanguage/qore/issues/329}{\texttt{ issue 329}})
\item fixed a bug with connection handling in the \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_s_q_l_1_1_s_q_l_statement}{SQLStatement}} class; an exception is now thrown if a \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_s_q_l_1_1_s_q_l_statement}{SQLStatement}} object tries to execute its prepared SQL on a connection other than the original connection used to prepare the statement (\href{https://github.com/qorelanguage/qore/issues/465}{\texttt{ issue 465}})
\item fixed a bug where \mbox{\hyperlink{group__filesystem__functions_ga0255009acc4b2cb332fd3f9d2aae7c05}{Qore\+::is\+\_\+executable()}} would return NOTHING instead of False (as per documentation) when called with non-\/existent path as it\textquotesingle{}s parameter (\href{https://github.com/qorelanguage/qore/issues/470}{\texttt{ issue 470}})
\item fixed precedence of logical and bitwise \mbox{\hyperlink{operators}{Operators}} (\href{https://github.com/qorelanguage/qore/issues/481}{\texttt{ issue 481}})
\item fixed a bug where nested lists were not parsed correctly in some cases (\href{https://github.com/qorelanguage/qore/issues/320}{\texttt{ issue 320}})
\item fixed a bug where the type of catch parameter was ignored (\href{https://github.com/qorelanguage/qore/issues/28}{\texttt{ issue 28}})

\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item Windows fixes\+:
\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item fixed Time\+Zone copying to use the standard name instead of the display name so that the info can be found in the registry
\item \href{../../modules/Util/html/index.html}{\texttt{ Util}} module fixes\+:
\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item fixed get\+\_\+random\+\_\+string() on Windows
\item fixed absolute\+\_\+path\+\_\+windows()
\end{DoxyItemize}
\item \href{../../modules/HttpServer/html/index.html}{\texttt{ Http\+Server}} module fixes\+:
\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item when binding a wildcard address with \mbox{\hyperlink{group__network__address__family__constants_gac4f81abe9d374562b41117c51950fb80}{AF\+\_\+\+UNSPEC}} on Windows with Http\+Server\+::add\+Listeners() and both IPv6 and IPv4 addresses are returned, bind both addresses since Windows doesn\textquotesingle{}t direct the IPv4 requests to the wildcard-\/bound IPv6 listener
\end{DoxyItemize}
\item fixed file reading by always opening in binary mode
\item added support for the WSAECONNABORTED socket error
\item replaced Mime\+::\+Multi\+Part\+Message\+::get\+Random\+String() with Util\+::get\+\_\+random\+\_\+string() to make it work on Windows
\end{DoxyItemize}
\item fixed a bug in the DBI layer where calling \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_s_q_l_1_1_s_q_l_statement_a411ebe1b36f43e8c749f46fac1a95ea6}{SQLStatement\+::describe()}} would crash when called with an older module that did not implement this method
\item other fixes in the \href{../../modules/Util/html/index.html}{\texttt{ Util}} module (in addition to the Windows-\/specific fixes above)\+:
\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item fixed {\ttfamily parse\+\_\+to\+\_\+qore\+\_\+value()} with hashes with a comma in the first key name
\item read from /dev/urandom instead of /dev/random since reads from the latter can block for long periods to fill the entropy pool
\end{DoxyItemize}
\item do not start signal thread after a fork() if signal handling is enabled, pthread\+\_\+create() is not async-\/signal safe (on Free\+BSD at least this reliably causes segfaults)

\end{DoxyItemize}
\item function changes
\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item added optional {\itshape start} and {\itshape end} parameters to the \mbox{\hyperlink{group__string__functions_ga757f5b4682cb6787e7e186ddcc2b2b56}{replace()}} function
\end{DoxyItemize}
\item all \mbox{\hyperlink{data_type_declarations}{data type declarations}} that optionally accept \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_nothing}{NOTHING}} also now accept \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_null}{NULL}} and map \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_null}{NULL}} to \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_nothing}{NOTHING}}; this makes direct assignments from values derived from SQL queries much easier
\item added an optional reference to an integer to the \mbox{\hyperlink{group__misc__functions_ga1d71fa075b5fd841df08e05cfdfc95c6}{Qore\+::backquote()}} function to return the return code of the program executed

\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item fixed a bug where the ?\+: operator could thrown spurious exceptions when parsing because it would return the type of the initial boolean expression as the return type of the operator
\item fixed a bug where classes with unimplemented inherited abstract variants would sometimes cause runtime exceptions to be thrown when instantiated but should have instead been caught at parse time
\item fixed a parser bug where out-\/of-\/line class method definitions could not be defined in a namespace block
\item fixed a bug parsing arguments in parse\+\_\+uri\+\_\+query() in the \href{../../modules/HttpServer/html/index.html}{\texttt{ Http\+Server}} module
\item fixed several bugs where parse exceptions could show the wrong source location\+:
\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item with type errors in function calls
\item when resolving global variables
\item in base class constructor arguments
\item for empty blocks with a missing return statement
\item when validating types used with the return statement (also associated warnings)
\item in methods calls
\item in hash value expressions
\item with redeclaring local variable return types
\item in local variable object instantiations
\end{DoxyItemize}
\item really fixed the bug thought to be fixed in 0.\+8.\+7 \char`\"{}where SSL errors would cause the affected thread to go into a infinite loop using 100\% CPU\char`\"{} -\/ this turned out to be easily reproducible on all platforms; when the SSL connection was shut down cleanly by the remote end before a response message was returned, an infinite loop would result
\item fixed a bug where it was impossible to output a single \textquotesingle{}\textbackslash{}\textquotesingle{} character in regex substitution expressions; \textquotesingle{}\textbackslash{}\textquotesingle{} was taken as an escape character, and \textquotesingle{}\textbackslash{}\textbackslash{}\textquotesingle{} was output literally, now \textquotesingle{}\textbackslash{}\textbackslash{}\textquotesingle{} is output as \textquotesingle{}\textbackslash{}\textquotesingle{}
\item fixed a bug where a parse-\/time crash would occur when calling the copy() method for a class that does not implement an explicit copy() method
\item fixed a bug where arguments passed to a copy method were ignored; now an exception is thrown
\item fixed a bug where public members and static variables of privately-\/inherited classes were incorrectly treated as public attributes of the child class
\item fixed a bug where slices could be made of objects from outside the class including private members
\item fixed a bug where \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_s_q_l_1_1_s_q_l_statement_af7fe60e95959cc5eb6cf0046adcb9ec6}{member\+Gate() methods}} were not being respected when taking a slice of an object
\item fixed bugs in the integer Socket\+::recv$\ast$() methods where a {\ttfamily SOCKET-\/\+CLOSED} exception was not thrown when the remote end closed the connection
\item fixed a bug related to out-\/of-\/order parse initialization for functions and methods which resulted in the wrong return type being returned for a method with more than 1 variant where the variant could not be matched at parse time
\item fixed a bug where a non-\/variable-\/reference member of an \char`\"{}our\char`\"{} variable declaration list would cause a crash due to passing the incorrect argument in sprintf()
\item fixed sandboxing / protection errors with inherited code; subclasses inheriting code from a parent class with different parse options would cause the child parse options to be used when running the parent class code which caused errors; now parse options are enforced properly on the block level
\item fixed the \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_range_iterator}{Range\+Iterator}} class; it was still abstract due to a missing \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_range_iterator_ad235b23928683ba0929d97f6d6401bb9}{Qore\+::\+Range\+Iterator\+::valid()}} method
\item fixed a bug where the wrong error was being returned after a connection reset (remote connection close) in sockets with integer recv$\ast$() methods which could in some cases lead to an infinite loop
\item fixed a bug where private members of a common base class were not accessible by objects of subclasses sharing the common base class
\item fixed many bugs in \href{../../modules/CsvUtil/html/index.html}{\texttt{ Csv\+Util}} and updated the module version to 1.\+1
\item initialize static openssl crypto locks for multi-\/threaded openssl library access; without this crashes can result (for example in error queue management)
\item fixed a bug where \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_h_t_t_p_client_a9a9b553de7854b86ca978a8d10c3c9dd}{Qore\+::\+HTTPClient\+::get\+URL()}} returned an invalid URL when no URL was set; now it returns \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_nothing}{NOTHING}} in this case
\item fixed a bug managing feature/module lists in inherited \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program}{Program}} objects; user modules were listed in the child \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program}{Program}} object even though user module code is not imported in child \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program}{Program}} objects
\item fixed a bug where an invalid guard condition in critical lvalue storage code can cause unreferenced data to be returned while in a lock which can cause a crash in a multithreaded program
\item fixed a bug where references were not being written to the output variable if an exception was active when the code block exited
\item fixed a bug setting the precision for arbitrary-\/precision numbers with large exponents (like \char`\"{}1e100n\char`\"{})
\item implemented more strict adherence to \href{http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2616}{\texttt{ RFC 2616}} (HTTP 1.\+1) regarding message-\/body handling in requests and response message generation and parsing
\item fixed a bug with \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_thread_1_1_condition_a8f29b21d4146f40315e25d3bbf840196}{Condition\+::wait()}} on Darwin with negative timeout values where a short timeout was used instead of an indefinite wait
\item fixed bugs in the \href{../../modules/SmtpClient/html/index.html}{\texttt{ Smtp\+Client}} and \href{../../modules/MailMessage/html/index.html}{\texttt{ Mail\+Message}} modules where mail messages were being serialized incorrectly if there were no attachments (there was no possibility to set the content transfer encoding) and also where it was not possible to set the content-\/type for the message body when it was sent as a part of a multipart message
\item fixed bugs handling arguments declared as type \mbox{\hyperlink{data_type_declarations_reference_or_nothing_type}{$\ast$reference}} (reference or nothing)
\item fixed bugs in executing code accross \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program}{Program}} object barriers with reference arguments
\item fixed a bug with the switch statement where character encoding differences would cause strings to mismatch even if they were otherwise identical; now hard comparisons with strings allow for implicit automatic temporary character encoding conversions for the comparison
\item fixed a bug where qore failed to set the time zone region correctly when set from /etc/localtime and this file is a relative symlink rather than absolute
\item fixed a bug where substr() and \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1zzz8stringzzz9_ab5ad54b1fe38b46ee071e55563d9d245}{Qore\+::zzz8stringzzz9\+::substr()}} were returning \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_nothing}{NOTHING}} if the arguments could not be satisifed contrary to the documentation and the declared return type, now an empty string is returned in those cases
\item fixed bugs rounding number values between 10 and -\/10 (non-\/inclusive) for display, fixed bugs rounding number value regarding digits after the decimal point for display with \mbox{\hyperlink{group__number__formatting__constants_ga69cc628e70f6f1c4c9ba4997ac09e5b8}{Qore\+::\+NF\+\_\+\+Scientific}}
\item fixed a bug in the \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_dir}{Qore\+::\+Dir}} class where it was not possible to chdir to the root directory {\ttfamily \char`\"{}/\char`\"{}} 
\item fixed a bug where recursive references were allowed and memory leaks would occur due to recursive references; these are now caught at runtime and a {\ttfamily REFERENCE-\/\+ERROR} exception is thrown
\item fixed a configure bug with bison \texorpdfstring{$>$}{>}= 3
\item fixed a bug in the \href{../../modules/HttpServer/html/index.html}{\texttt{ Http\+Server}} module when automatically uncompressing supported content-\/encodings to set the resulting string\textquotesingle{}s character encoding correctly
\item fixed a bug in the \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_instanceof}{instanceof}} operator when working with objects and classes created from different source \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program}{Program}} objects
\item fixed a bug in $\ast$printf() formatting with floating-\/point and number values where no digits were displayed right of the decimal point unless a specific number of digits was specified in the format string
\item fixed the return type of \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1zzz8boolzzz9_ab1dbc0ed03411f54af90e04a8172a56a}{Qore\+::zzz8boolzzz9\+::type\+Code()}}; was returning a boolean instead of \mbox{\hyperlink{group__type__code__constants_ga2d3c90a766ca129ff13d243a27b41c90}{Qore\+::\+NT\+\_\+\+BOOLEAN}}
\item fixed a bug there \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_null}{NULL}} was evaluated as \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_True}{True}} in a boolean context rather than \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_False}{False}}
\item fixed a bug where \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_socket_aa255d1dcfbddb208e80684eebecc800d}{Qore\+::\+Socket\+::recv\+Binary()}} would ignore the first data read
\item fixed starting listeners on UNIX domain sockets on Soalris in the \href{../../modules/HttpServer/html/index.html}{\texttt{ Http\+Server}} module
\item fixed a bug where number(\char`\"{}\char`\"{}) was being converted to @NaN@n
\item fixed return type of \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_h_t_t_p_client_a1d0fef0b049abca0d26c931c5e8f020b}{HTTPClient\+::get\+Connection\+Path()}}
\item fixed several bugs with logical comparison operators and arbitrary-\/precision numeric values where arbitrary-\/precision numeric values were not being prioritized as numeric values and also in some cases were being first converted to doubles and then operated on
\item fixed a bug in the socket code where the socket close condition was not flagged with SSL connections when writes failed due to the remote end closing the connection; an error would only be raised on the following socket operation
\item fixed a mismatched delete/malloc error with time zone initialization and the localtime file

\begin{DoxyParagraph}{Release Summary}
Code embedding improvements
\end{DoxyParagraph}
\hypertarget{release_notes_qore_087_compatibility}{}\doxysubsection{Changes That Can Affect Backwards-\/\+Compatibility}\label{release_notes_qore_087_compatibility}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{Fixes for Code Inheritance in Program Objects}
The following changes are meant to sanitize code inheritance in child \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program}{Program}} objects to fix long-\/standing design bugs in code encapsulation by addressing the lack of fine-\/grained control over symbol visibility in inherited code.
\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{qore_modules_mod_public}{public}}\+: The \mbox{\hyperlink{qore_modules_mod_public}{public}} keyword\textquotesingle{}s usage in modules has now been expanded to provide the same functionality generically in \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program}{Program}} objects; if \mbox{\hyperlink{qore_classes}{classes}}, \mbox{\hyperlink{constants}{constants}}, \mbox{\hyperlink{qore_namespaces}{namespaces}}, \mbox{\hyperlink{qore_functions}{functions}}, or \mbox{\hyperlink{variables_global_variables}{global variables}} are defined with the \mbox{\hyperlink{qore_modules_mod_public}{public}} keyword, then these symbols will be inherited into child \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program}{Program}} objects as long as no \mbox{\hyperlink{group__parse__options}{parse options}} prohibit it.~\newline
~\newline
 This change was made to give programmers complete control over which symbols are inherited in child \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program}{Program}} objects, whereas because prior to this change, the control was very course.~\newline
~\newline

\item the default behavior of Qore regarding inherting global variables and functions with user variants was changed to be consistent with namespaces, classes, and constants; that is; public symbols are inherited by default.~\newline
~\newline
 The following constants were renamed\+:
\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item {\ttfamily PO\+\_\+\+INHERIT\+\_\+\+USER\+\_\+\+FUNC\+\_\+\+VARIANTS} is now\+: \mbox{\hyperlink{group__parse__options_ga972fcd1745cc3f4efb6cb2a6e53cd832}{PO\+\_\+\+NO\+\_\+\+INHERIT\+\_\+\+USER\+\_\+\+FUNC\+\_\+\+VARIANTS}}
\item {\ttfamily PO\+\_\+\+INHERIT\+\_\+\+GLOBAL\+\_\+\+VARS} is now\+: \mbox{\hyperlink{group__parse__options_ga7cd01bb8ba1560c7893cd9655894c550}{PO\+\_\+\+NO\+\_\+\+INHERIT\+\_\+\+GLOBAL\+\_\+\+VARS}}~\newline
~\newline
 This change was made to fix a long-\/standing design problem with symbol inheritance and make the implementation consistent.~\newline
~\newline

\end{DoxyItemize}
\item builtin symbols are no longer inherited from user modules; only independent user symbols; the main change is that if a user module adds new user methods to a builtin class or new user variants to a builtin function, these changes are no longer imported into target \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program}{Program}} objects.
\end{DoxyItemize}
\end{DoxyParagraph}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{File Method Changes}
The following methods were updated to throw exceptions on all errors rather than a return code for I/O errors in order to avoid hard to debug conditions due to ignoring I/O errors by forgetting to check the return value on the following methods\+:
\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_file_aa0124826c6cc0c6cfa2a81a4612d4844}{Qore\+::\+File\+::f\+\_\+printf()}}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_file_a04172f5443b2e559269849bf7e653219}{Qore\+::\+File\+::f\+\_\+vprintf()}}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_file_a96b440e3903aa9099cc312ea8c649beb}{Qore\+::\+File\+::print()}}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_file_a7fb81ceed3597d9424e9bbd5dd2e55c0}{Qore\+::\+File\+::printf()}}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_file_a8e508aabefedf9fa70c42d0e5fab5959}{Qore\+::\+File\+::vprintf()}}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_file_acd30e6f14435bae0393b1ed52bec502d}{Qore\+::\+File\+::write()}}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_file_ad4f67c2a247f4b7fb9c6e26b51106aba}{Qore\+::\+File\+::writei1()}}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_file_adcf79ce346b63b85ff517580fd96d0b0}{Qore\+::\+File\+::writei2()}}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_file_a82dee19cad26e011ba1a0970d42b2130}{Qore\+::\+File\+::writei4()}}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_file_a9de545742fe95945677bb3049a1900fc}{Qore\+::\+File\+::writei8()}}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_file_a9004f5ff77ea368263121c33f95c87c5}{Qore\+::\+File\+::writei2\+LSB()}}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_file_a6788f0f1bd5b015dd726a6b2d06077bf}{Qore\+::\+File\+::writei4\+LSB()}}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_file_aab6932b3995a5b0963e41ef41bdd0b36}{Qore\+::\+File\+::writei8\+LSB()}}
\end{DoxyItemize}Note that the above changes will hopefully only minimally impact backwards-\/compatibilty since the change is in error handling, and additionally each of the above methods could also throw an exception if called when the object was not open.
\end{DoxyParagraph}
\hypertarget{release_notes_qore_087_new_features}{}\doxysubsection{New Features in Qore}\label{release_notes_qore_087_new_features}

\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item new methods offering code encapsulation enhancements
\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program_a9bc54a95f735cdc10bfb52e5166259b2}{Program\+::load\+Module()}}\+: allows modules to be loaded in a \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program}{Program}} object directly
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program_abf634534cb29157d05aab5ff3ffd6bea}{Program\+::import\+Class()}}\+: allows classes to be individually imported in \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program}{Program}} objects
\end{DoxyItemize}
\item new pseudo-\/methods in \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1zzz8nothingzzz9}{Qore\+::zzz8nothingzzz9}} to allow for \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1zzz8hashzzz9}{Qore\+::zzz8hashzzz9}} pseudo-\/methods to be safely used with \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_nothing}{NOTHING}}
\begin{DoxyItemize}

\end{DoxyItemize}
\item removed most restrictions on embedded logic in user modules; user module \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program}{Program}} objects are subject to the same restrictions as the parent \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program}{Program}} object (if any)
\item added the get\+\_\+parse\+\_\+options() function so that parse options in the current \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program}{Program}} can be determined at runtime
\item added the get\+\_\+ex\+\_\+pos() function to help with formatting exception locations where the {\ttfamily source} and {\ttfamily offset} information is present

\item new location tags {\ttfamily \char`\"{}source\char`\"{}} and {\ttfamily \char`\"{}offset\char`\"{}} added for parse and runtime exceptions to allow for error-\/reporting to display information about files where sections of a source file are parsed; this allows both the label and line offset in the label and the file name and absolute file line position to be reported in exception information
\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item new parameters added to the following methods and function to accommodate the new location information\+:

\item \href{../../modules/SmtpClient/html/index.html}{\texttt{ Smtp\+Client}} module improvements\+:
\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item added automatic recognition and support of the {\ttfamily \char`\"{}\+STARTTLS\char`\"{}} command when connecting to an ESMTP server; this way the class will automatically upgrade the connection to a secure TLS/\+SSL connection if the server supports it
\item added support for SMTP server schemes in the URL in the constructor (ex\+: {\ttfamily \char`\"{}esmtptls\+://user@password\+:smtp.\+example.\+com\char`\"{}})
\item added support for the deprecated (but still in use) {\ttfamily \char`\"{}smtps\char`\"{}} scheme with a default port of 465
\item when throwing an exception when a Message cannot be sent because it is incomplete, the reason for the error is also included in the exception (previously the exception message was generic making problems with the Message object harder to debug)
\end{DoxyItemize}
\item C++ API Enhancements
\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item added C++ APIs to allow for Qore \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_file}{File}} and \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_thread_1_1_queue}{Queue}} object arguments to be used by modules
\item added C++ APIs for controlling openssl initialization and cleanup by the qore library
\item extended qpp to allow for parsing relative dates in qpp code for assignments/default argument values
\item made it possible to call the C++ function Qore\+Function\+::find\+Variant() from threads where there is no current Qore\+Program object (such as from a thread created by foreign code)
\item added APIs to allow foreign threads to be registered/deregistered as Qore threads (for example, to allow Qore code to be called in a callback in a foreign thread created by a library linked with a Qore binary module)
\item added APIs to allow for TID reservations to allow (for example) for a callback that is executed in the same foreign thread to always have the same TID
\item the old Datasource\+::exec\+Raw() function with the {\itshape args} parameter was deprecated since args was ignored anyway, a new Datasource\+::exec\+Raw() function was added that has no args parammeter

\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item fixed a runtime class matching bug when identical user classes were created in different \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program}{Program}} objects, the match could fail at runtime because the wrong APIs were being used
\item fixed a crashing bug in the \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_map}{map}} operator with a select expression when used with an \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_abstract_iterator}{Abstract\+Iterator}} object for the list operand
\item fixed a bug where the generation of internal strings for abstract method signatures tries to resolve class names that are declared out of order, which incorrectly resulted in a parse exception; the fix is to use the class name in the signature before class resolution; the class is resolved in the second stage of parsing (symbol resolution) anyway, if it can\textquotesingle{}t be resolved then the changes to the \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program}{Program}} are rolled back anyway
\item a potential deadlock was fixed when calling \mbox{\hyperlink{group__library__functions_ga3ec32747f455642fd9ce503094a5cc85}{exit()}} while background threads were running; it was possible for a thread to be canceled while holding a \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_thread_1_1_mutex}{Mutex}} (for example) and then for another thread to deadlock trying to acquire the \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_thread_1_1_mutex}{Mutex}} and therefore for the process to deadlock because pthread\+\_\+mutex\+\_\+lock() is not a cancellation point. The solution was to cancel all threads first, then wait half a second, then call exit()
\item fixed a bug where global variables were being evaluated with strict mathematical boolean evaluation even when \mbox{\hyperlink{parse_directives_perl-bool-eval}{\%perl-\/bool-\/eval}} was enabled (which is the default)
\item fixed bug in \mbox{\hyperlink{group__misc__functions_ga0c3bdfd8fb3a29af0d3bcd0ed3a05eb0}{Qore\+::parse\+Base64\+String()}} and \mbox{\hyperlink{group__misc__functions_ga8851e308445e0388408b8b2cca344088}{Qore\+::parse\+Base64\+String\+To\+String()}} when called with an empty string argument; in this case uninitialized memory was returned
\item fixed runtime dynamic memory leaks in the \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_select}{Select From List Operator (select)}} and \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_map}{Map Operator (map)}} operators when used with iterators
\item do thread-\/specific cleanup in the main thread when cleaning up/shutting down the qore library
\item added additional openssl cleanup code for thread-\/local data and when cleaning up the qore library
\item fixed a bug matching function/method variants at runtime
\item fixed a race condition deleting global dynamic handlers in the \href{../../modules/HttpServer/html/index.html}{\texttt{ Http\+Server}} module
\item fixed a bug where declaring an abstract method with parameters and then declaring a concrete reimplementation of the method in a child class with no parameters caused a parse-\/time crash
\item fixed a bug where trying to dynamically call a function that does not exist results in a deadlock due to an error where a mutex is not unlocked
\item fixed a bug in the \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_socket_adf437ed165c08a1d166756ebe7b5ed4d}{Qore\+::\+Socket\+::send\+HTTPMessage()}} and \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_socket_a3e3d6f1bda0a9b6aaf92c5859c94a01d}{Qore\+::\+Socket\+::send\+HTTPResponse()}} methods regarding the timeout parameter
\item fixed a bug in an socket SSL error message where the method name was printed from non-\/string memory (used wrong ptr for the {\ttfamily \%s} format argument)
\item fixed some major crashing bugs related to reference handling; a global variable assigned a reference to a reference to a local variable would cause a crash
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{data_type_declarations_reference_type}{reference}} and \mbox{\hyperlink{data_type_declarations_reference_or_nothing_type}{$\ast$reference}} type fixes\+: an error in \mbox{\hyperlink{data_type_declarations_reference_type}{reference}} type handling allowed non-\/reference values to be passed to builtin code expecing references which caused a crash; the \mbox{\hyperlink{data_type_declarations_reference_type}{reference}} and \mbox{\hyperlink{data_type_declarations_reference_or_nothing_type}{$\ast$reference}} types would accept any value type
\item attempted to fix a non-\/reproducible bug seen on rhel5 in the \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_socket}{Socket class}} where SSL errors would cause the affected thread to go into a infinite loop using 100\% CPU

\begin{DoxyParagraph}{Fixes for Iterator Class Design Bugs}
Iterators, particular regarding the \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_map}{map}} and \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_select}{select}} operators, were implemented in a confusing and inconsistent way; even the qore documentation was incorrect, and examples were given incorrectly. The following changes will break functionality using the badly-\/implemented behavior of iterators before, but since the fix comes fairly soon after the introduction, hopefully this change will not cause too many problems with existing code. All users polled about the iterator changes in this release saw them as positive and desired changes to the language.
\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item the \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_map}{map}} and \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_select}{select}} operators\textquotesingle{} behavior was changed when used with an \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_abstract_iterator}{Abstract\+Iterator}} object for the list operand; now the implied argument is the result of \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_abstract_iterator_aa01374b285003faa21b045082063ac12}{Abstract\+Iterator\+::get\+Value()}} instead of the iterator object itself. This addresses a confusing design choice in the original iterator integration with the \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_map}{map}} and \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_select}{select}} operators
\item the second boolean argument was removed from the \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_hash_iterator_a842d257239bb77f2989960dbe1ddabc9}{Qore\+::\+Hash\+Iterator\+::constructor}}(hash\texorpdfstring{$<$}{<}auto\texorpdfstring{$>$}{>}) \char`\"{}\+Hash\+Iterator\+::constructor(hash<auto>)\char`\"{} and \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_hash_reverse_iterator_aefb96e7e14db92d4e94f690e25965a86}{Qore\+::\+Hash\+Reverse\+Iterator\+::constructor}}(hash\texorpdfstring{$<$}{<}auto\texorpdfstring{$>$}{>}) \char`\"{}\+Hash\+Reverse\+Iterator\+::constructor(hash)\char`\"{} methods; use the new \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_hash_pair_iterator}{Hash\+Pair\+Iterator}} and \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_object_pair_iterator}{Object\+Pair\+Iterator}} classes instead (\mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1zzz8hashzzz9_aae2e67b218a51791103c21866df5217b}{Qore\+::zzz8hashzzz9\+::pair\+Iterator()}} and \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1zzz8objectzzz9_a7d6df627d80aa7f74c7e895fb352c837}{Qore\+::zzz8objectzzz9\+::pair\+Iterator()}})
\item the single boolean argument was removed from \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1zzz8hashzzz9_ad9c31b0d467e2a1496f57e3feff505ee}{Qore\+::zzz8hashzzz9\+::iterator()}} and \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1zzz8objectzzz9_a7f5a44cdfd0b417a750deafa46980ce8}{Qore\+::zzz8objectzzz9\+::iterator()}}; use \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1zzz8hashzzz9_aae2e67b218a51791103c21866df5217b}{Qore\+::zzz8hashzzz9\+::pair\+Iterator()}} and \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1zzz8objectzzz9_a7d6df627d80aa7f74c7e895fb352c837}{Qore\+::zzz8objectzzz9\+::pair\+Iterator()}} instead to get the old behavior

\item the internal C++ Qore\+Program\+Helper object has been updated to wait until all background threads in the Qore library have executed before taking the \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program}{Program}} object out of scope; this allows for callbacks and other code that might be needed by background threads started in user modules (for example) to stay valid until the threads in the user modules also have terminated. Note that this does not affect the case when using \mbox{\hyperlink{parse_directives_exec-class}{\%exec-\/class}} and an application program object goes out of scope with background threads in user modules having non-\/static method call references as callbacks to the application program; see \mbox{\hyperlink{qore_modules_user_module_program_scope}{Program Scope in Object-\/\+Oriented Programs Using User Modules Providing Their Own Threads}} for more information on this topic.

\hypertarget{release_notes_qore_086_compatibility}{}\doxysubsection{Changes That Can Affect Backwards-\/\+Compatibility}\label{release_notes_qore_086_compatibility}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{Perl-\/\+Style Boolean Evaluation}
Qore\textquotesingle{}s default boolean evaluation mode was changed from strict mathematical to a more intuitive perl-\/ (and Python-\/) like style. This change was implemented to address one of the oldest design bugs in Qore\+: strict mathematical boolean evaluation. See \mbox{\hyperlink{parse_directives_perl-bool-eval}{\%perl-\/bool-\/eval}} for a description of the new default boolean evaluation mode.~\newline
~\newline
 To get the old strict mathematical boolean evaluation, use the \mbox{\hyperlink{parse_directives_strict-bool-eval}{\%strict-\/bool-\/eval}} parse option.~\newline
~\newline
 An example of the change; now the following \mbox{\hyperlink{statements_if}{if statement}} block will be executed as the {\ttfamily {\bfseries{if}}} expression is now evaluated as \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_True}{True}}\+: 
\begin{DoxyCode}{0}
\DoxyCodeLine{string str = \textcolor{stringliteral}{"{}hello"{}};}
\DoxyCodeLine{\textcolor{keywordflow}{if} (str)}
\DoxyCodeLine{    printf(\textcolor{stringliteral}{"{}Qore says hello\(\backslash\)n"{}});}

\end{DoxyCode}
 Previously (i.\+e. with \mbox{\hyperlink{parse_directives_strict-bool-eval}{\%strict-\/bool-\/eval}}) the {\ttfamily {\bfseries{if}}} expression above would be evaluated as \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_False}{False}} because the string value was converted to an integer 0, however as of Qore 0.\+8.\+6 (with the default \mbox{\hyperlink{parse_directives_perl-bool-eval}{perl-\/bool-\/eval}}) it is \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_True}{True}} since the string is not empty; empty strings and string value {\ttfamily \char`\"{}0\char`\"{}} are evaluated as \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_False}{False}}.~\newline
~\newline
 Perhaps counterintuitively (and the reason this was changed to be the default in qore), the chance for regression errors in qore code is very small, because for all cases where the old logic could be applied (meaning excluding cases where the result was always \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_False}{False}} due to the data types or values being evaluated), the results are the same with the new logic, except for one case; the case where a string has more than one character and begins with a zero (ex\+: {\ttfamily \char`\"{}00\char`\"{}}). In this case, the old logic would always return \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_False}{False}}, because the value was first converted to an integer {\ttfamily 0}, whereas the new logic will return \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_True}{True}}. Note that in the case of a string with a single {\ttfamily \char`\"{}0\char`\"{}}, both the old and new boolean logic returns \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_False}{False}}.~\newline
~\newline
 Basically with this option set, qore\textquotesingle{}s boolean evaluation becomes like perl\textquotesingle{}s and Python\textquotesingle{}s, whereas any expression that has the following values is \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_False}{False}}\+: \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_nothing}{NOTHING}}, \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_string}{string}} {\ttfamily \char`\"{}0\char`\"{}} and \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_string}{empty strings}}, \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_integer}{integer}}, \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_float}{float}}, and \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_number}{number}} {\ttfamily 0} (zero), \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_absolute_dates}{absolute date}} {\ttfamily 1970-\/01-\/01Z} (ie the start of the epoch with an offset of 0), \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_relative_dates}{relative date}} {\ttfamily 0s} (or any \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_relative_dates}{relative date}} with a 0 duration), \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_null}{NULL}}, \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_binary}{empty binary objects}}, \mbox{\hyperlink{container_data_types_hash}{empty hashes}}, and \mbox{\hyperlink{container_data_types_list}{empty lists}}. All other values are \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_True}{True}}. 
\end{DoxyParagraph}
\begin{DoxyNote}{Note}
also affects the \mbox{\hyperlink{group__type__conversion__functions_ga22c89291d4105fcb558f49fe49aeae44}{boolean(any)}} function
\end{DoxyNote}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{Changes in the Socket Class}
The \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_socket}{Socket}} class was enhanced to support timeouts with non-\/blocking I/O on all send operations; many Socket methods that send data were originally implemented to return an error code on error, however they would also throw exceptions if the socket were not open, so the error handling was inconsistent (exceptions versus return codes).~\newline
~\newline
 Additionally it was not possible to get error information at all for SSL errors if the socket was connected with SSL, which, according to Qore\textquotesingle{}s socket design, should be transparent for the programmer.~\newline
~\newline
 For these reasons the implementation was deemed inconsistent and unintuitive; the change was to add optional timeout parameters to all send methods and to allow the methods to throw exceptions (instead of simply returning -\/1 and not being able to determine the cause of the error in many cases).~\newline
~\newline
 The following methods were updated to accept optional timeout parameters and throw exceptions on all errors rather than a return code for I/O errors\+:

\begin{DoxyParagraph}{New Abstract Method in Abstract\+Iterator}
The following abstract method was added\+:
\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_abstract_iterator_aee1def5d872b487b8917a166d9b263e8}{Qore\+::\+Abstract\+Iterator\+::valid()}} was added (with concrete implementations in all iterator classes derived from this base class delivered with Qore); this method tells if the object is currently pointing to a valid iterator.~\newline
~\newline
 For any user classes inherting \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_abstract_iterator}{Abstract\+Iterator}} directly (as opposed to another concrete iterator class in Qore, where the method has already been added), a concrete implementation of this method will have to be added as well or that class will become \mbox{\hyperlink{qore_classes_abstract}{abstract}} with this release of Qore.

\end{DoxyParagraph}
\hypertarget{release_notes_qore_086_new_features}{}\doxysubsection{New Features in Qore}\label{release_notes_qore_086_new_features}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{Arbitrary-\/\+Precision Numeric Support}
Qore now uses the \href{http://www.mpfr.org/}{\texttt{ MPFR}} and \href{http://gmplib.org}{\texttt{ GMP}} libraries to provide arbitrary-\/precision numeric support. This type can be used for high-\/precision mathematics or for storing {\ttfamily NUMERIC} (ie {\ttfamily DECIMAL} or {\ttfamily NUMBER}) column values when retrieved from databases by Qore DBI drivers that support the new capability \mbox{\hyperlink{group__dbi__capabilities_ga8394d1495944bf61d666de40489a038a}{DBI\+\_\+\+CAP\+\_\+\+HAS\+\_\+\+NUMBER\+\_\+\+SUPPORT}} (previously these values would be retrieved as Qore strings in order to avoid information loss).~\newline
~\newline
 For more information, see the new \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_number}{number}} type, \mbox{\hyperlink{data_type_declarations_number_type}{number}}, and \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1zzz8numberzzz9}{Qore\+::zzz8numberzzz9}}
\end{DoxyParagraph}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{New Csv\+Util Module}
The \href{../../modules/CsvUtil/html/index.html}{\texttt{ Csv\+Util}} module implements the Csv\+File\+Iterator class that allows for easy parsing of csv-\/like text files
\end{DoxyParagraph}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{\%try-\/module Parse Directive to Handle Module Load Errors at Parse Time}
The new \mbox{\hyperlink{parse_directives_try-module}{\%try-\/module}} parse directive allows for module load errors to be handled at parse time; ex\+: 
\begin{DoxyCode}{0}
\DoxyCodeLine{\%\textcolor{keywordflow}{try}-\/module(\$ex) some-\/module > 1.0}
\DoxyCodeLine{    printf(\textcolor{stringliteral}{"{}error loading module \%y: \%s: \%s\(\backslash\)n"{}}, ex.arg, ex.err, ex.desc);}
\DoxyCodeLine{    exit(1);}
\DoxyCodeLine{\%endtry}

\end{DoxyCode}

\end{DoxyParagraph}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{Abstract Class Hierarchy Improvement}
As of this version of qore, concrete implementations of \mbox{\hyperlink{qore_classes_abstract}{abstract methods}} no longer have to have exactly the same return type as the abstract method; it is now sufficient that the return type in the concrete method meets a compatibility test with the return type of the abstract method in the parent class.~\newline
~\newline
 For example the following is now valid (and {\ttfamily My\+Concrete\+Class} is not abstract, whereas previously because the return types in the child class were not exact, {\ttfamily My\+Concrete\+Class} would be considered abstract by qore)\+: 
\begin{DoxyCode}{0}
\DoxyCodeLine{\textcolor{keyword}{class }MyAbstractClass \{}
\DoxyCodeLine{    abstract any doSomething();}
\DoxyCodeLine{    abstract *string getString();}
\DoxyCodeLine{\}}
\DoxyCodeLine{}
\DoxyCodeLine{\textcolor{keyword}{class }MyConcreteClass inherits MyAbstractClass \{}
\DoxyCodeLine{    int doSomething() \{}
\DoxyCodeLine{        \textcolor{keywordflow}{return} 1;}
\DoxyCodeLine{    \}}
\DoxyCodeLine{    string getString() \{}
\DoxyCodeLine{        \textcolor{keywordflow}{return} \textcolor{stringliteral}{"{}hello"{}};}
\DoxyCodeLine{    \}}
\DoxyCodeLine{\}}

\end{DoxyCode}

\end{DoxyParagraph}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{DBI Improvements}
Three new DBI capabilities were implemented, including a new option API as follows\+:
\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{group__dbi__capabilities_ga8394d1495944bf61d666de40489a038a}{DBI\+\_\+\+CAP\+\_\+\+HAS\+\_\+\+NUMBER\+\_\+\+SUPPORT}}\+: DBI drivers declaring this capability can accept \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_number}{number}} values and can also return \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_number}{number}} values, if a DBI driver does not declare this capability, then \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_number}{number}} values sent for binding by value are automatically converted to \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_float}{float}} values before being sent to the driver
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{group__dbi__capabilities_ga428f8f4909b2737d03593d8808fe2227}{DBI\+\_\+\+CAP\+\_\+\+HAS\+\_\+\+OPTION\+\_\+\+SUPPORT}}\+: this indicates that the driver supports the new option API, allowing options to be set on each connection. See the following for more information\+:
\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_serializable_a7bbf6cf2d7ac53a80e8023790c540c5f}{Datasource\+::constructor(hash)}}\+: now passes options to the DBI driver if the driver supports the option API
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_serializable_a7bbf6cf2d7ac53a80e8023790c540c5f}{Datasource\+::constructor(string)}}\+: (new in 0.\+8.\+6) passes options to the DBI driver if the driver supports the option API

\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_serializable_a7bbf6cf2d7ac53a80e8023790c540c5f}{Datasource\+Pool\+::constructor(hash)}}\+: now passes options to the DBI driver if the driver supports the option API
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_serializable_a7bbf6cf2d7ac53a80e8023790c540c5f}{Datasource\+Pool\+::constructor(string)}}\+: (new in 0.\+8.\+6) passes options to the DBI driver if the driver supports the option API

This capability also implies that the driver supports the new {\ttfamily \char`\"{}timezone\char`\"{}} option.
\end{DoxyItemize}
\end{DoxyParagraph}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{Socket Improvements}
The \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_socket}{Socket}} class was updated to support non-\/blocking I/O on all send methods; the following methods were updated to accept optional timeout parameters\+:
\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_socket_ab98b2101a71b7660d6d2bad57988d0ef}{Qore\+::\+Socket\+::send2()}}

\end{DoxyItemize}
\end{DoxyParagraph}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{Iterator Improvements}
The following improvements were made in qore to support more flexible and ubiquitous iterators\+:
\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item new iterator classes\+:
\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_single_value_iterator}{Single\+Value\+Iterator}}\+: allows single values (or any value without an iterator class) to be iterated; this provides the basis for the return type for the new base \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1zzz8valuezzz9_a16b7eeea1bb08b7c3faa69b2aa602fbb}{Qore\+::zzz8valuezzz9\+::iterator()}} method for non-\/container types
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_file_line_iterator}{File\+Line\+Iterator}}\+: allows files to be iterated line by line
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_object_iterator}{Object\+Iterator}}\+: a generic iterator for objects
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_object_reverse_iterator}{Object\+Reverse\+Iterator}}\+: a generic reverse iterator for objects
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_range_iterator}{Range\+Iterator}}\+: a numerical sequence generator (the basis for the return type for the new \mbox{\hyperlink{group__range__functions_gad5b4d3ad3f6c36d2e714bc6ed757a507}{xrange()}} function
\end{DoxyItemize}
\item new pseudo-\/methods were added to return iterator objects based on the value type\+:
\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1zzz8valuezzz9_a16b7eeea1bb08b7c3faa69b2aa602fbb}{Qore\+::zzz8valuezzz9\+::iterator()}}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1zzz8hashzzz9_ad9c31b0d467e2a1496f57e3feff505ee}{Qore\+::zzz8hashzzz9\+::iterator()}}

\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1zzz8objectzzz9_a7f5a44cdfd0b417a750deafa46980ce8}{Qore\+::zzz8objectzzz9\+::iterator()}}
\end{DoxyItemize}The base pseudo-\/method (\mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1zzz8valuezzz9_a16b7eeea1bb08b7c3faa69b2aa602fbb}{Qore\+::zzz8valuezzz9\+::iterator()}}) ensures that any value can be iterated, and the type-\/specific methods ensure that the most suitable iterator for container types is returned for container values; values without an iterator class are iterated with the \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_single_value_iterator}{Single\+Value\+Iterator}}
\item the \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_hash_iterator}{Hash\+Iterator}} and \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_hash_reverse_iterator}{Hash\+Reverse\+Iterator}} classes had an additional optional boolean argument added to their constructors; if \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_True}{True}}, then the \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_hash_iterator_ac476d576e747b685d4284fb02a5cf83e}{Hash\+Iterator\+::get\+Value()}} and \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_abstract_iterator_aa01374b285003faa21b045082063ac12}{Hash\+Reverse\+Iterator\+::get\+Value()}} methods return a hash with the following keys\+: {\ttfamily \char`\"{}key\char`\"{}} and {\ttfamily \char`\"{}value\char`\"{}}, allowing for more convenient iteration with constructions that only use {\ttfamily get\+Value()} methods (such as the \mbox{\hyperlink{statements_foreach}{foreach statement}}); to accommodate this, two new methods were added to the \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_hash_iterator}{Hash\+Iterator}} base class\+:
\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_hash_iterator_a0d62ed2e642f1f9f0fc06cbd2d79b14b}{Qore\+::\+Hash\+Iterator\+::get\+Key\+Value()}}

\end{DoxyItemize}
\item all iterator classes had copy methods added to them (ex\+: \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_hash_iterator_ae35efa6b6afd35bc56fdddd9d5622059}{Qore\+::\+Hash\+Iterator\+::copy()}})
\item new Python-\/inspired \mbox{\hyperlink{group__list__functions_ga0bf214ec2c777032a6078bd979637e69}{range()}} and \mbox{\hyperlink{group__range__functions_gad5b4d3ad3f6c36d2e714bc6ed757a507}{xrange()}} functions (the latter returning a \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_range_iterator}{Range\+Iterator}} object to efficiently iterate large integral sequences or ranges
\end{DoxyItemize}
\end{DoxyParagraph}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{Text File Parsing Enhancements}
The following improvements were made in qore to support more flexible file parsing\+:
\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item the \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_read_only_file}{Qore\+::\+Read\+Only\+File}} class was added as a parent class of \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_file}{Qore\+::\+File}} to allow for a more convenient API for reading files (the \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_file}{Qore\+::\+File}} class\textquotesingle{}s API remains the same as it publically inherits \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_read_only_file}{Qore\+::\+Read\+Only\+File}})
\item the \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_read_only_file_a3407127e38d2a2ffe3c473d02561f788}{Read\+Only\+File\+::read\+Line()}} method (formerlly a method of the \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_file}{Qore\+::\+File}} class) was enhanced to accept 2 optional arguments, allowing the end of line character(s) to be stripped from the line returned, and also to allow the end of line characters to be specified. If no end of line characters are specified, then the method automatically determines the end of line characters (can be {\ttfamily \char`\"{}\textbackslash{}n\char`\"{}}, {\ttfamily \char`\"{}\textbackslash{}r\char`\"{}}, or {\ttfamily \char`\"{}\textbackslash{}r\textbackslash{}n\char`\"{}}; the last one only if the underlying file is not a TTY in order to avoid stalling I/O on an interactive TTY)
\item the \mbox{\hyperlink{group__file__stat__constants}{File Stat Constants}} were moved from the \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_file}{Qore\+::\+File}} class to the \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_read_only_file}{Qore\+::\+Read\+Only\+File}} class
\item added a new \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_file_line_iterator}{File\+Line\+Iterator}} iterator class
\item added a new optional parameter to \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1zzz8stringzzz9_a05074aea597c3d67c122714b6249790c}{Qore\+::zzz8stringzzz9\+::split(string, string, bool)}} and \mbox{\hyperlink{group__string__functions_ga9ab14520ba1ea2802b4c216f47a0f10d}{Qore\+::split(string, string, string, bool)}} to allow for automatic stripping unquoted fields of leading and trailing whitespace (the default is the old behavior; i.\+e. leave the whitespace as it is read)
\item added a new \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_time_zone}{Time\+Zone}} method for parsing string dates in a specific \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_time_zone}{Time\+Zone}}\+: \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_time_zone_ab22bd3acfbfb1d7b7ce56f54c81897c7}{Qore\+::\+Time\+Zone\+::date(string, string)}}
\item added a new function for parsing text as a boolean value\+: \mbox{\hyperlink{group__string__functions_ga774b6d0f9d5835de7d7362400aa2cdd1}{parse\+\_\+boolean()}}
\item as mentioned above, the new \href{../../modules/CsvUtil/html/index.html}{\texttt{ Csv\+Util}} module was added, implementing the Csv\+File\+Iterator class that allows for easy parsing of csv-\/like text files
\end{DoxyItemize}
\end{DoxyParagraph}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{Other Improvements and Changes}

\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item the \mbox{\hyperlink{statements_foreach}{foreach statement}} now iterates objects derived from \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_abstract_iterator}{Abstract\+Iterator}} automatically
\item added a \mbox{\hyperlink{group__option__constants_gaad0f8a0998b32e445a8708484acbd100}{HAVE\+\_\+\+SYMLINK}} constant for the symlink() function added in qore 0.\+8.\+5
\item added the \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_s_q_l_1_1_s_q_l_statement_af7fe60e95959cc5eb6cf0046adcb9ec6}{SQLStatement\+::member\+Gate()}} method so \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_s_q_l_1_1_s_q_l_statement}{SQLStatement}} objects can be dereferenced directly to a column value when iterated with \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_s_q_l_1_1_s_q_l_statement_a34dfdc4d3aa9d3c38817931986506fbd}{SQLStatement\+::next()}}; also this method will throw exceptions when an unknown column name is used so that typos in column names can be caught (instead of being silently ignored producing hard to find bugs)
\item implemented \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_serializable_a7bbf6cf2d7ac53a80e8023790c540c5f}{Datasource\+::constructor(string)}} and \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_serializable_a7bbf6cf2d7ac53a80e8023790c540c5f}{Datasource\+Pool\+::constructor(string)}} variants to allow for creating datasources from a string that can be parsed by \mbox{\hyperlink{group__dbi__functions_ga5bc0c2cfb4f1bfbf73c527f9441a6dbe}{Qore\+::\+SQL\+::parse\+\_\+datasource(string)}} \char`\"{}parse\+\_\+datasource(string)\char`\"{}
\item added the following new DBI-\/related functions\+:

\hypertarget{release_notes_qore_086_bug_fixes}{}\doxysubsection{Bug Fixes in Qore}\label{release_notes_qore_086_bug_fixes}

\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item fixed a bug in the \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_map}{map operator}} with a select expression when the list operand is \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_nothing}{NOTHING}}; it was returning a list with one \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_nothing}{NOTHING}} element instead of \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_nothing}{NOTHING}}
\item applied a patch by Reini Urban to allow for multi-\/arch builds on Debian
\item fixed bugs calculating the byte offset for string searches in the c++ Qore\+String\+::index() and Qore\+String\+::rindex() functions when the offset is negative and the strings have a multi-\/byte character encoding (such as UTF-\/8)
\item fixed a bug where calling an abstract method from a class where the abstract method is implemented was causing a parse error to be thrown
\item fixed a bug where the wrong source code location was displayed when raising a parse exception in operator expression parse initialization for some operators
\item fixed bugs in regexes in the Http\+Server\+::add\+Listeners() and Http\+Server\+::add\+Listeners\+With\+Handler() methods (\href{../../modules/HttpServer/html/index.html}{\texttt{ Http\+Server}} module version updated to 0.\+3.\+5)
\item fixed bugs handling non-\/blocking reads in the \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_socket}{Socket}} class; the timeout setting was only enforced for the first read; subsequent reads were made as blocking reads
\item fixed a bug in the \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_socket}{Socket}} class when the SSL session requires renegotiation during non-\/blocking I/O
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_abstract_pollable_io_object_base_a772a2dc97dddb19a647ccdc863068d57}{File\+::constructor()}} now throws an exception if called with a tty target and \mbox{\hyperlink{parse_directives_no-terminal-io}{\%no-\/terminal-\/io}} is set
\item fixed a bug in split with quote (\mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1zzz8stringzzz9_a05074aea597c3d67c122714b6249790c}{Qore\+::zzz8stringzzz9\+::split(string, string, bool)}} and \mbox{\hyperlink{group__string__functions_ga9ab14520ba1ea2802b4c216f47a0f10d}{Qore\+::split(string, string, string, bool)}}) if the separator pattern was not found and the single field was not quoted either
\item fixed a bug handling nested \mbox{\hyperlink{parse_directives_ifdef}{\%ifdef}} and \mbox{\hyperlink{parse_directives_ifndef}{\%ifndef}} blocks with \mbox{\hyperlink{parse_directives_else}{\%else}} in the inside block
\item fixed a crashing due to the failure to clear the \char`\"{}\+PF\+\_\+\+TOP\+\_\+\+LEVEL\char`\"{} flag when initializing statements, this could cause temporary variables in a statement to be marked as the start of the global thread-\/local variable list, and then after such variables are deleted, then a crash happens when trying to access the global thread-\/local variable list
\item fixed a crashing bug at parse time merging function lists in namespaces declared multiple times
\item fixed a bug in executing user module init() closures
\item fixed a bug where the qore library could crash when destroying a Program object due to a race condition in removing signal handlers managed by the Program object; the Program calls the signal handler manager to remove the signals, but the signals can be removed concurrently to the request while the Program object is iterating the signal set (ie it is modified while being iterated), which causes a crash
\item added code to detect when the same namespace is declared both with and without the \mbox{\hyperlink{qore_modules_mod_public}{public keyword}} when defining user modules which can result in entire namespaces being silently not exported (and can be difficult to debug); now a parse exception is thrown if this happens while parsing a user module
\item added code tags to \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_file}{File}} methods without side effects
\item made many minor documentation fixes

\begin{DoxyParagraph}{Release Summary}
Major new features and a few bug fixes
\end{DoxyParagraph}
\hypertarget{release_notes_qore_085_new_features}{}\doxysubsection{New Features in Qore}\label{release_notes_qore_085_new_features}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{Abstract Methods and Interfaces}
Qore now supports the {\bfseries{abstract}} keyword when declaring methods; an {\bfseries{abstract}} method has no implementation and must be implemented in child classes with the same signature for the child class to be instantiated.~\newline
~\newline
 Classes with {\bfseries{abstract}} methods define interfaces; a concrete implementation of the interface is a class that inherits the class with {\bfseries{abstract}} methods and implements all the {\bfseries{abstract}} methods.~\newline
~\newline
 Abstract methods are defined with the following syntax\+: 
\begin{DoxyCode}{0}
\DoxyCodeLine{\textcolor{keyword}{class }MyAbstractInterface \{}
\DoxyCodeLine{    abstract string doSomething(int param);}
\DoxyCodeLine{    abstract bool checkSomething(string arg);}
\DoxyCodeLine{\}}

\end{DoxyCode}
 The following abstract classes now exist in Qore\+:
\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_s_q_l_1_1_abstract_datasource}{Abstract\+Datasource}}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_abstract_iterator}{Abstract\+Iterator}}
\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_abstract_quantified_iterator}{Abstract\+Quantified\+Iterator}}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_abstract_bidirectional_iterator}{Abstract\+Bidirectional\+Iterator}}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_abstract_quantified_bidirectional_iterator}{Abstract\+Quantified\+Bidirectional\+Iterator}}
\end{DoxyItemize}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_thread_1_1_abstract_smart_lock}{Abstract\+Smart\+Lock}} (which was already present in Qore but now implements abstract methods)
\end{DoxyItemize}The following new iterator classes have been added to Qore\+:
\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_hash_iterator}{Hash\+Iterator}}
\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_hash_reverse_iterator}{Hash\+Reverse\+Iterator}}
\end{DoxyItemize}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_hash_list_iterator}{Hash\+List\+Iterator}}
\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_hash_list_reverse_iterator}{Hash\+List\+Reverse\+Iterator}}
\end{DoxyItemize}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_list_hash_iterator}{List\+Hash\+Iterator}}
\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_list_hash_reverse_iterator}{List\+Hash\+Reverse\+Iterator}}
\end{DoxyItemize}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_list_iterator}{List\+Iterator}}
\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_list_reverse_iterator}{List\+Reverse\+Iterator}}
\end{DoxyItemize}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_s_q_l_1_1_s_q_l_statement}{SQLStatement}} (which was already present in Qore but now implements the \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_abstract_iterator}{Abstract\+Iterator}} interface to allow query results to be iterated)
\end{DoxyItemize}Classes inheriting \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_abstract_iterator}{Abstract\+Iterator}} have special support so that objects can be easily iterated in the following list operators\+:
\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_map}{Map Operator (map)}}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_foldr}{Fold Right Operator (foldr)}} and \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_foldl}{Fold Left Operator (foldl)}}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_select}{Select From List Operator (select)}}
\end{DoxyItemize}
\end{DoxyParagraph}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{Universal References}
All restrictions on references have been removed from Qore; references to local variables may now be passed to the \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_background}{background operator}} and passed as arguments to \mbox{\hyperlink{expressions_closure}{closures}}.~\newline
~\newline
 Basically when a reference is taken of a local variable that could result in the local variable being accessed in a multi-\/threaded context, the variable is treated as a closure-\/bound local variable in the sense that it\textquotesingle{}s lifetime is reference-\/counted, and all accesses are wrapped in a dedicated mutual-\/exclusion lock to ensure thread safety.
\end{DoxyParagraph}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{Pop3\+Client Module}
A \href{../../modules/Pop3Client/html/index.html}{\texttt{ Pop3\+Client}} module has been added providing an API for communicating with \href{http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Post_Office_Protocol}{\texttt{ POP3}} servers and retrieving email messages.~\newline
~\newline
 The module uses functionality provided by the new \href{../../modules/MailMessage/html/index.html}{\texttt{ Mail\+Message}} module to represent email messages (and attachment data) downloaded from the server.
\end{DoxyParagraph}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{Mail\+Message Module}
The \href{../../modules/MailMessage/html/index.html}{\texttt{ Mail\+Message}} module provides common functionality to the \href{../../modules/Pop3Client/html/index.html}{\texttt{ Pop3\+Client}} and \href{../../modules/SmtpClient/html/index.html}{\texttt{ Smtp\+Client}} modules to represent email messages for receiving and sending, respectively. This module was created mostly from functionality removed from the \href{../../modules/SmtpClient/html/index.html}{\texttt{ Smtp\+Client}} and enhanced to provide support for reading email messages in the new \href{../../modules/Pop3Client/html/index.html}{\texttt{ Pop3\+Client}} module.
\end{DoxyParagraph}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{Smtp\+Client Module Changes}
The Message and Attachment classes were removed from the \href{../../modules/SmtpClient/html/index.html}{\texttt{ Smtp\+Client}} module to the \href{../../modules/MailMessage/html/index.html}{\texttt{ Mail\+Message}} module. Backwards-\/compatible definitions for the Message and Attachment classes are provided in the \href{../../modules/SmtpClient/html/index.html}{\texttt{ Smtp\+Client}} module to rexport the removed functionality for backwards compatibility.
\end{DoxyParagraph}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{Other Minor Improvements and Changes}

\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item qpp updated to support abstract methods and multiple inheritance (+ other minor qpp enhancements)
\item improved the {\ttfamily QOREADDRINFO-\/\+GETINFO-\/\+ERROR} exception description by adding information about the arguments passed

\item added a new parameter to parse\+\_\+url() and parse\+URL() to allow for any \mbox{[}\mbox{]} in the hostname to be included in the {\ttfamily \char`\"{}host\char`\"{}} output key for indicating that the \href{http://wikipedia.org/wiki/IPv6}{\texttt{ ipv6}} protocol be used
\item added the following pseudo-\/methods\+:

\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item fixed format\+\_\+date() output for {\ttfamily \char`\"{}\+MON\char`\"{}} and {\ttfamily \char`\"{}\+DAY\char`\"{}}, etc
\item fixed a memory leak in the parser related to parse exception handling with namespace members
\item fixed an invalid assert() in module handling when an error occurs loading the module (only affected debug builds)
\item tagged digest and crypto functions internally as \mbox{\hyperlink{code_flags_RET_VALUE_ONLY}{RET\+\_\+\+VALUE\+\_\+\+ONLY}}
\item do not kill TID 1 (the initial / main thread) when calling exit() in background threads as a crash can result with some 3rd party libraries that spawn their own threads on some platforms (observed on Darwin \& Solaris 10 at least)
\item fixed a memory bug in the new builtin function API used by modules built with qpp
\item fixed memory bugs in the type system where uninitialized type pointers could be used causing a crash
\item fixed a memory bug in handling \char`\"{}or nothing\char`\"{} types where a non-\/null pointer would be assumed to be a pointer to the type, however it could actually be a pointer to the NOTHING object, the fix was to ensure that any NOTHING objects in argument lists would be substituted with a null pointer
\item fixed a bug in parse-\/time variant matching where an argument with parse-\/time type \char`\"{}object\char`\"{} would be matched as a perfect match to any parameter with any class restriction; this would cause run-\/time type errors if another valid class was passed that matched another variant of the method or function
\item fixed a build bug that caused qore to be built twice

\begin{DoxyParagraph}{Release Summary}
Major new features and changes that can affect backwards-\/compatibility, plus 40 bug fixes
\end{DoxyParagraph}
\hypertarget{release_notes_qore_084_compatibility}{}\doxysubsection{Changes That Can Affect Backwards-\/\+Compatibility}\label{release_notes_qore_084_compatibility}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{Namespace Changes}
Qore\textquotesingle{}s internal namespace handling was nearly completely rewritten for Qore 0.\+8.\+4. This is because the old code was inefficient and applied namespaces inconsistently to \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program}{Program}} objects.~\newline
~\newline
 The main change that can cause backwards-\/compatibility issues is that now functions are full namespace members. If no namespace is explicitly given in a function definition, the function is a member of the unnamed root namespace.~\newline
~\newline
 Also the distinction between builtin and user functions was removed. Internally, there is only one kind of function object, which can contain both builtin and user function variants (overloaded variants of the same function with the same name but different arguments).~\newline
~\newline
 All Qore builtin functions were moved to the \mbox{\hyperlink{namespace_qore}{Qore}} namespace.~\newline
~\newline
 Other namespace changes\+:
\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item loading namespaces provided by builtin modules into a \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program}{Program}} object is now an atomic operation that may fail, if, for example, objects have already been defined in the target \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program}{Program}} with the same name as objects provided by the builtin module. Previously this could cause undefined behavior.
\item namespace lookups are now truly breadth-\/first as documented; previously the algorithm was depth-\/first (contrary to the documentation)
\item namespace lookups are now done (both at parse time and runtime) with the help of symbol lookup tables for fast lookups; tables are maintained for both committed and temporary uncomitted parse symbols; this leads to up to 3x faster parsing for Qore code
\item global variables are also now full namespace members, however this does not cause problems with backwards-\/compatibility
\end{DoxyItemize}
\end{DoxyParagraph}
\hypertarget{release_notes_qore_084_new_features}{}\doxysubsection{New Features in Qore}\label{release_notes_qore_084_new_features}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{User Modules}
It is now possible to develop user modules in Qore; several user modules are now included in the Qore distribution, forming Qore-\/language components of Qore\textquotesingle{}s runtime library.~\newline
~\newline
 User modules delivered with Qore 0.\+8.\+4\+:
\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item \href{../../modules/HttpServer/html/index.html}{\texttt{ Http\+Server}}\+: a multi-\/threaded HTTP server implementation
\item \href{../../modules/SmtpClient/html/index.html}{\texttt{ Smtp\+Client}}\+: an SMTP client library
\item \href{../../modules/TelnetClient/html/index.html}{\texttt{ Telnet\+Client}}\+: a TELNET client implementation
\item \href{../../modules/Mime/html/index.html}{\texttt{ Mime}}\+: a set of MIME definitions and functions for manipulating MIME data
\end{DoxyItemize}There are also new example programs for the above modules in the examples/ directory.~\newline
~\newline
 User modules are subject to Qore\textquotesingle{}s functional restriction framework.
\end{DoxyParagraph}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{Namespace Changes}
As listed above\+:~\newline

\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item global variables and functions are now full namespace members
\item all builtin functions are now in the \mbox{\hyperlink{namespace_qore}{Qore}} namespace
\item real depth-\/first searches are used for namespace symbols
\item symbols are resolved first in the current namespace when parsing declarations/code in a namespace
\end{DoxyItemize}
\end{DoxyParagraph}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{The $<$b$>$$<$tt$>$final$<$/tt$>$$<$/b$>$ Keyword}
Classes and methods can now be declared \char`\"{}final\char`\"{} to prevent subclassing or overriding in a subclass
\end{DoxyParagraph}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{Pseudo Methods}
Pseudo-\/methods are class methods that can be implemented on any value; they are also part of class hierarchy. The methods that can be executed on the value depend on the value\textquotesingle{}s type, and all \char`\"{}pseudo-\/classes\char`\"{} inherit methods from a common base class.~\newline
~\newline
 For example\+: 
\begin{DoxyCode}{0}
\DoxyCodeLine{\textcolor{stringliteral}{"{}string"{}}.strlen()}
\DoxyCodeLine{<abf05da3>.size()}
\DoxyCodeLine{500.typeCode()}

\end{DoxyCode}
 Are examples of pseudo-\/methods on literal values.~\newline
~\newline
 Some expensive operations such as getting the first or last key (or value) of a hash are now cheap using pseudo-\/methods, for example\+: 
\begin{DoxyCode}{0}
\DoxyCodeLine{hash.firstKey()}
\DoxyCodeLine{hash.lastValue()}

\end{DoxyCode}

\end{DoxyParagraph}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{New Doxygen-\/\+Based Documentation}
The Qore reference documentation is now generated by Doxygen, and is generated directly from the Qore sources. In fact, a new preprocessor known as \char`\"{}qpp\char`\"{} was developed for Qore 0.\+8.\+4 to facilitate and enforce doxygen documentation on Qore\textquotesingle{}s runtime library (as well as abstract the relatively complex APIs used to bind C++ code to the Qore runtime library from the C++ programmer).~\newline
~\newline
 The documentation is more comprehensive, and corresponds much closer to the actual internal implementation since the documentation is now also contained in and directly generated from the internal C++ implementation of Qore.~\newline
~\newline
 For example, there is the \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1zzz8valuezzz9_a3a66486cee14aa073cf90fbed5a23edd}{Qore\+::zzz8valuezzz9\+::val()}} method. This method is implemented in the base pseudo class and is reimplemented in other pseudo-\/classes for other runtime data types as necessary. This method returns \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_True}{True}} if the value has a value in the same sense as Perl\textquotesingle{}s boolean context evaluation. For example, if the value is a hash with no keys, it returns \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_False}{False}}; if it is a hash with keys, it returns \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_True}{True}}; if it is an empty string, it returns \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_False}{False}}; if it is a non-\/empty string, it returns \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_True}{True}}, etc.
\end{DoxyParagraph}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{LValue Handling Changes}
lvalue handling was rewritten as the old implementation was ugly and subject to deadlocks (in rare corner cases).~\newline
~\newline
 Furthermore, medium-\/term, an architectural goal of Qore is to store all ints, floats, and bools internally as the basic C++ type instead of using a class wrapper for each value, which needs dynamic allocation and destruction, which takes up more memory and negatively affects execution speed.~\newline
~\newline
 With Qore 0.\+8.\+4, all local and global variables are stored using optimized C++ types when declared with the appropriate type restrictions; for example\+: 
\begin{DoxyCode}{0}
\DoxyCodeLine{int i0;}
\DoxyCodeLine{our int i1;}

\end{DoxyCode}
 These declares local and global variables that can only be assigned integer values; in Qore 0.\+8.\+4 the value internally will be stored as an \char`\"{}int64\char`\"{} value (and not a dynamically-\/allocated Qore\+Big\+Int\+Node object).~\newline
~\newline
 The same holds for\+:
\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{data_type_declarations_int_type}{int}}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{data_type_declarations_softint_type}{softint}}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{data_type_declarations_float_type}{float}}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{data_type_declarations_softfloat_type}{softfloat}}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{data_type_declarations_bool_type}{bool}}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{data_type_declarations_softbool_type}{softbool}}
\end{DoxyItemize}Note that the optimized lvalue handling has not yet been applied to all lvalues, in particular non-\/static object members with declared types are not yet implemented with optimized storage; to do this requires a rewrite of Qore\textquotesingle{}s API and ABI (will happen in the next major release of Qore).~\newline
~\newline
 This change leads to improved integer and floating-\/point performance and a smaller runtime memory footprint.
\end{DoxyParagraph}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{Runtime Optimizations}
In addition to the up to 3x faster parsing (as decribed in the namespace changes above), Qore 0.\+8.\+4 contains many runtime optimizations designed to reduce the number of dynamic memory allocations performed at runtime.~\newline
~\newline
 The optimizations included in this version of Qore are only a half-\/measure compared to future changes that will necessitate a new binary Qore API.
\end{DoxyParagraph}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{Per-\/\+Thread Initialization}
the new set\+\_\+thread\+\_\+init() function allows a call reference or closure to be set which will be automatically executed when new threads are started (or a new thread accesses a \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program}{Program}} object) which can be used to transparently initialize thread-\/local data.
\end{DoxyParagraph}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{More Control Over Thread Resource Exceptions}
new functions\+:
\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item throw\+\_\+thread\+\_\+resource\+\_\+exceptions\+\_\+to\+\_\+mark()
\item mark\+\_\+thread\+\_\+resources()
\end{DoxyItemize}Allow for only thread resouces created after a certain point to be processed (for example only thread resources left after some embedded code was called)
\end{DoxyParagraph}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{New Socket Methods}
new methods\+:
\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_socket_ad471f7399655c3fb211c72b55ca568d9}{Qore\+::\+Socket\+::upgrade\+Client\+To\+SSL()}}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_socket_a83385d31d5b112409424269f025de5ea}{Qore\+::\+Socket\+::upgrade\+Server\+To\+SSL()}}
\end{DoxyItemize}Allow upgrading an already-\/existing socket connection to SSL
\end{DoxyParagraph}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{Better Socket Error Messages}
More information has been added to socket exceptions to provide better feedback when errors occur.
\end{DoxyParagraph}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{New Socket Event Fields}

\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item added {\ttfamily \char`\"{}type\char`\"{}} and {\ttfamily \char`\"{}typename\char`\"{}} keys to the \mbox{\hyperlink{event_handling_EVENT_HOSTNAME_RESOLVED}{EVENT\+\_\+\+HOSTNAME\+\_\+\+RESOLVED}} event
\item added {\ttfamily \char`\"{}type\char`\"{}}, {\ttfamily \char`\"{}typename\char`\"{}}, and {\ttfamily \char`\"{}address\char`\"{}} keys to the \mbox{\hyperlink{event_handling_EVENT_CONNECTING}{EVENT\+\_\+\+CONNECTING}} event
\end{DoxyItemize}
\end{DoxyParagraph}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{Support For Blocking Writes in the Queue Class}
\mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_thread_1_1_queue}{Queue}} objects can now be used as a blocking message channel (similar to a Go channel); if a maximum size is given to the \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_thread_1_1_queue}{Queue}} constructor, then trying to write data to the \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_thread_1_1_queue}{Queue}} when it is full will block until the \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_thread_1_1_queue}{Queue}}\textquotesingle{}s size goes below the maximum size; optional timeout parameters have been added to \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_thread_1_1_queue}{Queue}} methods that write to the \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_thread_1_1_queue}{Queue}}.
\end{DoxyParagraph}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{New Queue\+::clear() Method}
Does just what you think it does \+:)
\end{DoxyParagraph}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{date(string, string) Improvement}
added the possibility to specify microseconds when parsing dates against a mask with the date() function
\end{DoxyParagraph}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{New Support For ++ And -- Operators With Floating-\/\+Point Lvalues}
previously this would either convert the lvalue to an int or throw an exception if the lvalue could not be converted to an int due to type restrictions
\end{DoxyParagraph}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{Class Recognition/\+Compatibility Between Program Objects}
The problem is that a user class created from the same source code in two different \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program}{Program}} objects would be recognized as a different class with parameter and variable type restrictions -\/ ie you could not declare a variable or parameter with a class type restrictions and assign it an object created from the same class source code but created in another \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program}{Program}} object.~\newline
~\newline
 This problem is analogous to a similar problem with java in that classes built from the same source but from different classloaders are also recognized as different classes.~\newline
~\newline
 In Qore 0.\+8.\+4 a class signature is created of all public and private objects, and an SHA1 hash is maintained of the class signature, and if the class names and signatures match, then the classes are assumed to be identical, even if they have different internal class IDs (because they were created in different \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program}{Program}} objects, for example).
\end{DoxyParagraph}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{New Time\+Zone\+::date(string) Method}
to support creating arbitrary dates in a given \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_time_zone}{Time\+Zone}}
\end{DoxyParagraph}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{New Get\+Opt\+::parse3() method}
This method will display any errors on \mbox{\hyperlink{group__io__constants_ga697e4968984d273562f14bfed155b4a8}{stderr}} and exit the program (which is the most typical way of handling command line errors anyway)
\end{DoxyParagraph}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{+= Operator Optimization For object += hash}
this operation is faster in this release
\end{DoxyParagraph}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{New Parse Option PO\+\_\+\+NO\+\_\+\+MODULES}
Using this option disables module loading
\end{DoxyParagraph}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{New Parse Option PO\+\_\+\+NO\+\_\+\+EMBEDDED\+\_\+\+LOGIC}
Using this option disables all dynamic parsing
\end{DoxyParagraph}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{New Parse Directives}

\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{parse_directives_assume-global}{\%assume-\/global}}\+: the opposite of \mbox{\hyperlink{parse_directives_assume-local}{\%assume-\/local}}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{parse_directives_old-style}{\%old-\/style}}\+: the opposite of \mbox{\hyperlink{parse_directives_new-style}{\%new-\/style}}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{parse_directives_require-dollar}{\%require-\/dollar}}\+: the opposite of \mbox{\hyperlink{parse_directives_allow-bare-refs}{\%allow-\/bare-\/refs}}
\item \mbox{\hyperlink{parse_directives_push-parse-options}{\%push-\/parse-\/options}}\+: allows parse options to be saved and restored when the current file is done parsing; very useful for include files
\end{DoxyItemize}
\end{DoxyParagraph}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{New Context Functions}

\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item cx\+\_\+value()\+: returns the value of the given key
\item cx\+\_\+first()\+: returns \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_True}{True}} if iterating the first row
\item cx\+\_\+last()\+: returns \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_True}{True}} if iterating the last row
\item cx\+\_\+pos()\+: returns the current row number (starting from 0)
\item cx\+\_\+total()\+: returns the total number of rows in the set
\end{DoxyItemize}
\end{DoxyParagraph}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{SOCKET-\/\+HTTP-\/\+ERROR Exception Enhancement}
The invalid header info received is reported in the exception\textquotesingle{}s {\ttfamily \char`\"{}arg\char`\"{}} key
\end{DoxyParagraph}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{Improved Parse Error Messages}
Improved some parse error messages dealing with namespace and class declaration errors
\end{DoxyParagraph}
\begin{DoxyParagraph}{Added NT\+\_\+\+CLOSURE Constant}
type code for runtime closure values
\end{DoxyParagraph}
\hypertarget{release_notes_qore_084_bug_fixes}{}\doxysubsection{Bug Fixes in Qore}\label{release_notes_qore_084_bug_fixes}

\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item fixed a race condition with \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program}{Program}} objects when a signal handler is left active and the \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_program}{Program}} terminates
\item fixed a bug in the \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_file}{File}} class where the encoding given in the constructor was ignored; if no encoding was given in the File\+::open$\ast$() method then the \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_file}{File}}\textquotesingle{}s encoding would always be set to the default encoding, now it\textquotesingle{}s set to the encoding given in the constructor (as documented)
\item runtime checks have been implemented so that references to local variables cannot be passed to a closure; this would cause a runtime crash
\item a fix has been made to the \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_delete}{delete}} and \mbox{\hyperlink{operators_remove}{remove}} operators; lists will not be extended when trying to remove/delete list elements that do not exist
\item fixed some bugs showing the error location with bugs in the second stage of parsing (symbol resolution)
\item apply type filters to blocks with a designated return type but no \mbox{\hyperlink{statements_return}{return statement}}
\item fixed crashing bugs on some 32bit platforms where size\+\_\+t was assumed to be 64 bits
\item fixed a crashing bug parsing invalid \mbox{\hyperlink{parse_directives_requires}{\%requires}} directives in the scanner
\item fixed a bug in usleep() with relative date/time values (added a new usleep() variant to support this)
\item fixed a typo in the command-\/line help for the qore binary with unknown parse options
\item fixed \mbox{\hyperlink{group__option__constants_ga2b260e5d44de1d493adb8d97789f047f}{HAVE\+\_\+\+SIGNAL\+\_\+\+HANDLING}} to be \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_False}{False}} if signal handling is disabled on platforms where signal handling is otherwise available
\item fixed a scanner bug parsing out of line class definitions with a root-\/justified namespace path (ex\+: {\ttfamily \char`\"{}class \+::\+X\+::\+Class\+Name ...\char`\"{}})
\item merging code from binary modules at parse time and at runtime is now transaction-\/safe (before it would cause memory errors and/or a crash), now if errors are detected then an exception is raised and changes are not applied.
\item fixed a crashing bug in the C++ API function Qore\+Hash\+Node\+::set\+Key\+Value() when the value is 0 and an exception occurs or is already active before the call is made
\item fixed a bug in date parsing with a format string -\/ off by one with integer months -\/ added a regression test for this case
\item fixed a memory error with the \mbox{\hyperlink{statements_rethrow}{rethrow statement}} in enclosing but nested try-\/catch blocks
\item fixed a crashing bug where qore would try to instantiate a class for a type that did not represent a class (ex\+: {\ttfamily \char`\"{}int i();\char`\"{}})
\item fixed a memory leak in the \mbox{\hyperlink{data_type_declarations_softlist_type}{softlist}} and \mbox{\hyperlink{data_type_declarations_softlist_or_nothing_type}{$\ast$softlist}} type implementation
\item make sure and raise a {\ttfamily SOCKET-\/\+CLOSED} error when reading a HTTP header if no data is received
\item make sure and convert encodings with \mbox{\hyperlink{group__string__functions_gab2ccb59779f7860a4e67af5b5a3bc766}{index()}} and \mbox{\hyperlink{group__string__functions_ga390f6c11ecc55c179293de8e87605d2f}{rindex()}} functions if the encodings don\textquotesingle{}t match
\item build fix\+: only use a lib64 directory if the directory exists already
\item raise a parse exception in the scanner if a numeric overflow occurs in literal integer values
\item fixed a bug in \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_thread_1_1_abstract_smart_lock_afafe6ef19203993a7c5dd87e00068325}{Abstract\+Smart\+Lock\+::lock\+TID()}}
\item fixed a major crashing error in the C++ API function Qore\+String\+Node\+::create\+And\+Convert\+Encoding(); this function is used by the xml module when parsing XML-\/\+RPC sent in a non-\/\+UTF-\/8 character encoding
\item fixed \mbox{\hyperlink{class_qore_1_1_read_only_file_ab6946821b81fc2b9b4f07ef27ebacd45}{Qore\+::\+File\+::getchar()}} to always retrieve 1 character (even for multi-\/byte character encodings)
\item fixed string evaluation in a boolean context to return \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_True}{True}} with floating-\/point numbers between -\/1.\+0 and 1.\+0 exclusive
\item printf formatting fix\+: output YAML-\/style {\ttfamily \char`\"{}null\char`\"{}} for \mbox{\hyperlink{basic_data_types_nothing}{NOTHING}} with \%y
\item scanner fix\+: accept {\ttfamily \char`\"{}\textbackslash{}r\char`\"{}} as whitespace to allow better parsing of sources with Windows EOL markers
\item fixed parse-\/time type processing/checks for the keys, + and $\ast$ operators
\item foreach statement fix\+: unconditionally evaluate the hash when iterating as otherwise it could change during iteration which could cause a crash
\item fixed another parse-\/time variant matching bug where the variant-\/matching algorithm was too aggressive and excluded possible matches at parse time which could result in a false parse-\/time definitive match even though a better match could be available at runtime
\item fixed a static memory leak when signal handlers are left registered when the qore library terminates
\item fixed static memory leaks and 1 dynamic memory leak in strmul()
\item fixed a crashing bug in handling recursive constant references
\item fixed a bug in the C++ API function Hash\+Iterator\+::delete\+Key() when the node\textquotesingle{}s value is NULL
\item fixed time zone/\+DST calculations for time zone regions with DST with dates before the epoch but after the last DST transition before the epoch
\item fixed a memory error where invalid source expressions referenced in a regular expression substitution expression would cause a crash (ex\+: \begin{DoxyVerb}str =~ s/public (name)/$2/g \end{DoxyVerb}

\item fixed a memory error in regular expression substitution where the unconverted string (if not given in UTF-\/8 encoding) was used when copying source expressions to the target string
\item fixed a bug where a recursive class inheritance tree would cause a crash
\item fixed a bug where a static class method could not access private members of the class
