Change History (most recent first):
<16> 2/5/91 Lai BM,#81596,81597: Also for bug jfr101 on whiteboard. For 81597,
hintIndex is now invalidated for regular and meta parameter
writes. For 81586, roundup is used in SetMsgAddr. In SetMsgAddr
and PutAttribute, GetDescInfo is used to obtain the correct
offset and size for list/reco.
<15> 1/18/91 Lai When adding a list/record to an attribute, skip the header.
<14> 1/11/91 Lai Fix bug of adding a null desc to AppleEvent and GetArray with
array type kAEDataArray
<13> 12/13/90 Lai Separation of the main files into separate modules
<12> 10/29/90 Lai Get around change in GetHandleSize glue
<11> 10/10/90 Lai MakeReturnID should take a parameter of LONGINT
<10> 9/21/90 Lai Fix bug that access mask and data available is only check when
doing GetPtr but not GetDesc.
<9> 9/20/90 Lai Do not allow adding a descriptor with key into an ordinary list
<8> 9/20/90 Lai When doing a Put N, return error if (N - number of items in
List) > 1
<7> 9/19/90 Lai Fix bug that in CreateMessage, extrabytes is not passed to
CreateBuffer
<6> 9/18/90 Lai transaction ID is now back as a meta parameter. More robust 'tid
' to 'sect' coercion.
<5> 9/15/90 ngk Fix for name changes in PPCToolbox.p
<4> 9/15/90 Lai Post code review clean-up, Coercion from tid to sect
<3+> 9/13/90 Lai Post code review clean-up
<3> 9/10/90 Lai Type case OSType to LONGINT for better compilation with 3.0
compiler.
<2> 9/7/90 Lai Fix comment
<1> 9/7/90 Lai first checked in
<0> 9/7/90 Lai First Checked in to BBS
---------------------
3-13 Mike Farr. I added wantAEDF to GlobalRec.
3-16 Mike Farr. Added clientsAddr to GlobalRec. Initialized in AEInit.
3-16 Eric House. Commented some code. Fixed bug in storing factored lists.
3-16 EKL CreateList, CreateMessage, CreateBuffer now return an OSErr, and
a var adddescparameter is used for the result
3-16 EKL AEPutPtr/AEPutDesc now returns an error when adding parameter to record/message
3-16 EKL Can now use AEPutPtr/AEPutDesc to record/message for replacing parameter
3-16 EKL AEInit has an additional procPtr for handling non-aevt high level event
3-19 EKL Now keep track of number of parameters in message
3-19 EKL Add AEListItemCount to return number of items in a list or a message
3-19 EKL Add AEQuit to terminate use of AEM
3-20 EKL Use Nick's Header file names
3-20 EKL Add counter for generating refcon
3-23 EKL In AEPutXXXX a nil ptr/handle is treated as 0 byte data rather than delete.
3-23 EKL Add AEDeteleXXXX to do the actual delete.
3-23 EKL CreateList is renamed to AECreateList and only create an empty list
3-23 EKL AEPutArray is used to write an array of data to a list
Currently if there is an error in middle of AEPutArray, it is possible to
have a partial addition, this will be improved in future.
3-23 EKL AEGetArray is for reading an array from a list.
3-26 EKL AERef is now a parameter in AEDisposeDesc
3-27 EKL AEInit now set AETable to nil
3-27 EKL Remove aMetaProto from Glboal, minimize the need to use global.
3-30 EKL Check if message end exactly at end of handle, otherwise it is error.
3-30 EKL Reclassify the error codes.
3-30 EKL Make AEDescCoercion public in stead of StdCoercion.
3-30 EKL In coercion, source = destination means change in place.
4-06 EJL In standard coercion, bug of not returning proper error fixed
To Do:
