Changes-WFEB.log ================ WFEB change log for mods to VMSGopherServer v1.2VMS-1 "base" distribution. Files in FoteMods-server.zip should replace those in the Gopher1_2VMS1.zip "base" distribution to implement these changes. Fote ============================================================================== Foteos Macrides Worcester Foundation for Experimental Biology MACRIDES@SCI.WFEB.EDU 222 Maple Avenue, Shrewsbury, MA 01545 ============================================================================== INDEX.C 21-Jun-1994 Added Bruce Tanner's trick for using '?' as IDENT.OPT a search selector synonym for tab to delimit the query, thus enabling Type=1 Path=7 tuples for building directories of indexed databases "on the fly". Set local code identifier to WFEB_j. LOOKASIDE.C 04-May-1994 Fixed up memory allocation for Access= fields in lookaside editor. IDENT.OPT Set local code identifier to WFEB_i. GOPHERDCONF.C 09-Apr-1994 Stan's fix of logfile rollover logic. [.INDEXING]* Bruce's update of indexed search engine. SERVER.DOC Dennis' update of docs for Bruce's engine. IDENT.OPT Set local code identifier to WFEB_h. FTP.C 21-Mar-1994 Additional mods for improved continuation line LINK.COM_GOPHERD handling in aFTP gateway. Fixed WINS typo to WOLLONGONG for gopherd link. Set local code identifier to WFEB_g. FTP.C 12-Mar-1994 Made continuation line handling in QuitClose() GSGOPHEROBJ.C fully RFC compliant, and added more binary extensions, in aFTP gateway. Rescinded change from creation date to last modification date in the date/size function. This is consistent with what is reported via dir/size, and the zip/unzip utilities. The modification date changes when files are moved in the data tree even if there is no change in their contents, and is misleading. (That'll teach *me* for going along with the majority opinion on VMSGopher-L 8-). Set local code identifier to WFEB_f. FTP.C 21-Feb-1994 Added code in QuitClose() to deal with GOPHERD.C continuation lines, and code to type Solaris. IDENT.OPT Added VMSdisableAllPrv() in GOPHERD.C for use when running under InetD. Set local code identifier to WFEB_e. FTP.C 19-Feb-1994 Fixed FTP.C's QuitClose() along the lines GSGOPHEROBJ.C suggested by J.M.Snyder. [.GOPHERD]COMPILE.COM The date/time function now uses the latest [.LOOKASIDE]COMPILE.COM modification date instead of creation date. IDENT.OPT Fixed more typos in COMPILE.COM's. Set local code identifier to WFEB_d. FTP.C 04-Jan-1994 Added binary extensions to aFTP gateway. SERVER.DOC Added Dennis' updates of the documentation. [.GOPHERD]MAKE.COM Added Lance's updates of MAKE.COM's and [.GOPHERD]DESCRIP.MMS DESCRIP.MMS's to go with my COMPILE.COM [.LOOKASIDE]MAKE.COM changes for UCX with DECC. [.LOOKASIDE]DESCRIP.MMS Set local code identifier to WFEB_c. GOPHERD.C 09-Dec-1993 Switched fgetpos() and fsetpos() to ftell() INDEX.C and fseek() in continuation(). [.GOPHERD]COMPILE.COM Modified SearchVersion() to deal with the [.LOOKASIDE]COMPILE.COM image header differences on VAX vs. AXP. Fixed prefixing in cc's for UCX with DECC. Corresponding changes need to be made in the DESCRIP.MMS's. Suppressed globalext message during cc for LOOKASIDE.C. Set local code identifier to WFEB_b. GOPHERD.C 03-Dec-1993 Switched fgetpos() and fsetpos() to ftell() INDEX.C and fseek() in LCLfromLink() so it will work QUERY.C right with VAR files. SERVER.DOC Fixed EGREP search path validation so it works IDENT.OPT equivalently to that for DCL searches. Can now do EGREP searches in any legal directory, specified in any legal manner. Added Bruce Tanner's fix for the problem with wildcard indexed searches on index sets built with different /MAX_TOPICS values, and removed the CAUTION: about that problem from the docs. Set local code identifier to WFEB_a. .
