Tue, Nov 21, 2006: Released Check 0.9.5

* Fixed code coverage support to work with gcc4 and buggy libtool.

* Changed loop test iteration variable from i to _i.  Added example of
  loop test usage to documentation.

* Fixed distcheck target by adding SVNChangeLog added to EXTRA_DIST.

* Fixed signal string problem in tests.  Strings differed between
  OSes, now we use strsignal().  Fixes Sourceforge bug #1539828. 

* Fixed problem with process group ID, especially visible on Solaris
  and LynxOS.  Fixes Sourceforge bugs #1407360 and #1539828.

Fri, Oct 13, 2006: Released Check 0.9.4

* Updated manual and converted from DocBook to Texinfo.

* Added pkg-config support.

* Added Libtool support to build both static and shared libraries.

* Removed debian/ and rpm/ directories for building packages.
  Downstream maintainers can easily handle this.

* Updated GNU Build System to use modern Autotools.

* Fixed sourceforge bug #1327225, two teardown checked fixtures
  segfaults.

* Added a new kind of test, looping tests, which are called with a new
  context for each loop iteration. This makes them ideal for table
  based tests. Previously, with the loop in the test itself, only the
  first error was caught and then the test would exit. Now all errors
  are shown at once which should help in debugging

* Added possibility to turn off timeout tests in check's own unit tests
  through configure option --disable-timeout-tests.

* Added coverage analysis for check's own unit tests.

Thu, Aug 25, 2005: Released Check 0.9.3

Applied debian patches from debian maintainer.

Fixed documentation bug #1216502.

gcc 2.95.3 compatibility fixed (patch #1161654, bug #1211672).

Messaging refactored to make it  work with forking tests, and also with
threading tests on linux 2.4. Added check_fork and check_waitpid_and_exit
to be used for forking tests. (bug # 1233585)

Timeout error message changed (feature request #1121452, bug #1160305).

Fix check.spec for fc3 x86_64 (patch #1111782)


Fri, Nov 12, 2004: Released Check 0.9.2

Use strsignal to print describing text for signals.
Documented signals handling and timeouts.
Changed failure message for fail_if.
Added support for timeouts on tests, enabling detection of eternal loops.
Changed name on function list_create to check_list_create to avoid name clash.
Applied ANSI C99 patch (#1047014) for macro var args.
Cleaned up the self test verification to simplify merging of new tests.
Fixed debian and rpm targets

Added support for testing on expected signals. Implementation courtesy of
Lucas Di Pentima and Cesar Ballardini. 


Fri, Sep 3, 2004: Released Check 0.9.1

Updated tutorial with new features.
Added support for XML output of the test results, courtesy of Frederic Peters.
Fixed setup bug from forum, failure in setup did not abort test in nofork mode.
Applied varargs patch (#933411) and added test cases.
Applied fail_if (#709167) patch.
Applied 'newbies' patch #995028 for autoconf doc.
Applied doc patch #995028 from Bill Barnard.
Fixed portability problems tests by changing == to =.
Changed copyright according to bug report.
Applied patch 796705. Replacing _exit with exit.
Applied patch for bug 793671.


Mon, May 17, 2004: Released Check 0.9.0

Run fixture teardowns in reverse order to setup
Plugged some memory leaks.
Added test name to log outputs.
Applied patch (802160) for distcheck bug (579604).
Fixed log printouts for nofork mode.
Updated documentation and converted to DocBook.

Added a new print mode, CK_ENV, that gets the print mode from the
environment variable CK_VERBOSITY.

Made tcase_free and suite_free static. This may break existing test
programs. Everything is now freed when srunner_free is called.


Mon Oct 21, 2002: Released Check 0.8.4

Fixed pipe issues.
Allow to use check.h from C++.
Plugged some memory leaks.


Fri May 24, 2002: Released Check 0.8.3

Fixed various build problems. Fixed a problem with check.m4.
Documentation updates.


Mon Apr 15, 2002: Released Check 0.8.2

Added version information to headers and library. Added an autoconf
macro to easily integrate check into projects that use autoconf.

Removed limitations on line number, message and buffer sizes.

Declared constant string parameters as const.


Sat Mar 2, 2002: Released Check 0.8.1

Changed license to LGPL.

Fixed bug in running checked setup in nofork mode.


Wed Oct 24, 2001: Released Check 0.8.0

Support running in a nofork mode. Defined a checked fixture as well as
an unchecked fixture, support failing in checked and uncheck fixture
functions, and errors in checked fixture functions. Rewrote the
back-end to use pipes, rather than message queues.

Reimplemented printing functions in terms of string formatting
functions, to allow better testing of output without full end-to-end
testing.

Renamed some public constants to use the CK_ naming convention. This
will break existing test programs.

Documented the new features, and changed the distribution to include
sgml and html files, as well as lyx files, as many people don't have
lyx.


Thu Aug 23, 2001: Released Check 0.7.3

Fixed the Autoconf Lyx check in acinclude.m4 so that configure works
on Solaris systems (and hopefully others), and cleaned up a minor
problem in Debian packaging.


Fri Aug 17, 2001: Released Check 0.7.2

Automated RPM packaging, and included debian packaging. The makefiles
now has an rpm target (the RPMFLAGS variable can be set to add
additional flags to RPM). Debian packages are built the ordinary way
(dpkg-buildpackage).

Moved the example*.* files to tutorial*.*, since the docs really are
tutorials. Beefed up the tutorial docs to add clarity to the behavior
of fixture setup/teardown (based on a helpful critique by Fred Drake),
and to document the static nature of unit tests demanded by the bug
fix below.

Many bugfixes: added -Wall to the CCFLAGS for gcc, and fixed a mess of
warnings that resulted. Changed a bizarre naming mismatch in
tcase_set_fixture (masked by the lack of compile warnings), and made
unit tests static (both bugfixes suggested by Fred Drake). Also added
a more sophisticated test of Lyx to (hopefully) ensure that Lyx
supports linuxdoc (but it's not clear to me how to test that for
sure).


Wed Jul 30, 2001: Released Check 0.7.1

Reorganized printing and logging functions to allow for a less
primitive logging function. Logging is now documented in the tutorial
documentation.


Wed Jul 11, 2001: Released Check 0.7.0

Included a primitive logging function (at the moment, it only prints a
copy of the CRVERBOSE output to the log file), added the ability for
an SRunner to run multiple suites (and reorganized the Check tests to
take advantage of that), and added the magic to allow Check to be used
with C++.

Also added Doxygen markup to the header file, but I'm not terribly
satisfied withe clarity of the output. I may switch to CWEB... Next
release should include API docs and improved logging, if nothing else
comes up...


Wed Jun 27, 2001: Released Check 0.6.1

Bug fix for srunner_failures (bad version actually returned all
results), added srunner_results to do what srunner_failures used to
do, and added corrected unit tests for both.

Also changed the API for reporting the number of failed tests from
srunner_nfailed to srunner_ntests_failed, to harmonized better with
new function srunner_ntests_run. This unfortunately may break some
unit tests slightly -- that's why the major release number is 0 :-)


Thu Jun 21, 2001: Released Check 0.6.0

Features improved unit test reporting options, more complete unit
tests, and end-to-end test, and a full API into TestResults
