6.80 Released 4/2/2018

  • Added the html/muscle-by-example tour MkDocs-source sub-directory.
  • Added ReadFrom() and WriteTo() methods to the PacketDataIO API
    (as convenient alternatives to calling SetPacketDestination()
    and/or GetSourceOfLastReadPacket())
  • PlainTextMessageIOGateway now properly supports packet-based I/O.
  • MessageIOGateway, PlainTextMessageIOGateway, and
    RawDataMessageIOGateway all now support a
    PR_NAME_PACKET_REMOTE_LOCATION field which can be used to
    determine a UDP packet's source and/or destination when the
    gateway is being used in conjunction with a PacketDataIO.
  • Added a GetFieldTypeForName(const String &) convenience method to
    the Message class.
  • Added an IPAddress(const String &) constructor.
  • Added a GetPrettyTypeCodeString() function to Message.h, that returns
    a String object (instead of writing into a char[] buf), because really.
  • Added the IHostNameResolver interface, and the PutHostNameResolver(),
    RemoveHostNameResolver(), and ClearHostNameResolvers() functions,
    so that programs can add their own custom back-end functionality
    to the GetHostByName() function if they want to.
  • Added a GetHostByNameNative() function that does hostname lookup
    without any IHostNameResolver callbacks.
  • Added a Set() method to the IPAddressAndPort class.
  • Changed UDPSocketDataIO::Write()'s multi-target behavior to
    try to send to all targets even if some of the sends fail.
  • Moved SeekableDataIO and PacketDataIO subclasses into their
    own separate header files.
  • Updated test/testudp.cpp to support PlainTextMessageIOGateway also.
  • Fixed hexterm.vcproj to include some .cpp files that were missing.
  • muscled and libmuscle.a are now compiled without the
    DMUSCLE_SINGLE_THREAD_ONLY and DMUSCLE_ENABLE_MEMORY_TRACKING
    flags, so that libmuscle.a can be used as-is in more projects.
  • The PRINT_CALLS_PER_SECOND macro in TimeUtilityFunctions.h was
    broken, and printed more often than it was supposed to. Fixed.
  • Fixed a bug in SysLog.cpp's log-rotator code that could cause
    it to delete log-files prematurely under certain circumstances.
  • Fixed a bug that could cause Message::FindData(fn, B_ANY_TYPE, ...)
    to crash.
  • Added a number of additional .cpp files to the libmuscle.a
    file generated in the server folder.
  • Fixed an out-of-date comment in StdinDataIO.h
  • Half-specified numeric-range clauses in StringMatcher strings
    weren't being matched correctly. Fixed.
  • The default value of the (launchBits) argument in some of the
    ChildProcessDataIO::System() methods was set incorrectly. Fixed.
