This is the release history file for CDE. It will detail each release version and date, along with the highlights of the release. For more detailed information on changes between any given release, use 'git log', or peruse the commit history at: https://sourceforge.net/p/cdesktopenv/code/commit_browser # 2.2.2 07/27/2014 A lot of fixes and improvements in this release. CDE can be built on more modern Linuxes and BSDs. An initial stab at illimios support is also present. Here is the shortlog: Eugene Doudine (7): Fixes the bug #17 dtsession can't validate passwords longer than 8 characters when the session is locked Fixed bug #27 dtfile space handling bug Fixed bug #32 dtfile table formatting bug with non-latin filenames Fixes the off-by-one bug in RegisterInGrid(), which caused dtfile's desktop icons on the right edge of the screen (if desktop width is not a multiple of icon with) to be registered on the next workspace or (in the case of the last workspace) beyond the desktop_grid array (possibly causing segfaults). Fixes several issues with grid registration of the dtwm panel on dtfile startup and on workspace addition: Fixes a small bug in grid registration: when an object is placed over another object (can be done manually) and then removed from there, the registration of the covered object is removed as well (that is it's cell is considered empty). Fixes the bug, which caused dtterm to show stripes of wrong color between text lines when using fontsets that include fonts of slightly different heights. Jon Trulson (52): update HISTORY file for 2.2.1, though a little too late :) building_release_archive: add some steps and clean up linux depend: stop using makedepend, use gcc instead libDtTerm: add include so FILE is properly defined. linux: Use installed X11 header files rather than requiring /imports/x11/include nsgmls: fix up some gcc 4.8 warnings. linux.cf: fix typo and some formatting. linux: move dependancy handling out of linux.cf and into new lnxDep.rules file. mp_rpc_server.C: limit iteration of svc_fdset to FD_SETSIZE, as per spec. dtdocbook/instant: *always* link with local libtcl.a dtpad: stub out XmPrint stuff if there is no XmPrint support. dtmail: stub out XmPrint stuff if there is no XmPrint support. dtcm: stub out XmPrint stuff if there is no XmPrint support. dtinfo: stub out XmPrint stuff if there is no XmPrint support. linux: libDtSearch requires linking with -lm libcsa: fix up some stupidness. tt_xdr_utils.h: fix build error on linux/bsd introduced with illumos initial patch.

Oops. At any rate, only the git shortlogs for each release will be listed here in the future. Shortlog: Eugene Doudine (5): Bugfix for #9 Cut off fonts in titles Fix for several segfaults in dtwm that happen with UTF-8 locale and were caused by unckeked XmeRenderTableGetDefaultFont return value Fixes segfault in dtprintinfo when used UTF-8 locale, bug was caused by unchecked return value of XmeRenderTableGetDefaultFont() addition of en_US.UTF-8 locale: fonts.alias and fonts.dir files Addition of the en_US.UTF-8 locale: installation support Isaac Dunham (2): dtlogin: use proper path to getty and /usr/local/bin in path on Linux Add -quiet option to dtlogin.

It now mostly compiles but is not quite ready for prime time. It is not built be default. - dtksh now builds on linux systems. - We do not build Motif man pages anymore. - X11 screensaver extension support now works in dtsession on Linux. - Some screen locking issues on the BSD's have been fixed. - /usr/sbin/sendmail is now the default mailer on OpenBSD - Basic support for Xinerama has been added to dtlogin and dtsession using a new DtXinerama library. - Resolve many more more compiler warnings # 2.2.0c (alpha) 10/4/2012 - Many 64b issues have been fixed, related to XtVaGetValues(), missing prototypes, erroneous assumptions regarding the size of ints and pointers, etc. Many still lurk in the shadows. - help files should build now on 64b systems with compiler optimization enabled. - FreeBSD is pretty much fully functional now. OpenBSD and NetBSD are close behind. - FreeBSD uses a authorized FreeBSD Foundation specific logo on dtlogin. - a few hundred more compiler warnings fixed :) - more missing prototypes added to XmPrivate.h # 2.2.0b (alpha) 9/6/2012 - This release incoporates approximately 200 patches from various people around the planet. - initial BSD (OpenBSD, FreeBSD) support. - wider support for various Linux distributions - Redhat, Arch, Ubuntu/Kubuntu/Xubuntu. See a full list of currently operational platforms and their statuses at: https://sourceforge.net/p/cdesktopenv/wiki/SupportedPlatforms/ - many fixes to better support 64b systems. There is still much work needed in this regard. - most modules are operational. dtinfo is not operational on any platform yet. dtksh is not yet operational on linux systems. - several thousand compiler warnings have been addressed. Unfortunately, there are still several thousand more waiting :( Some of this code is *old*. # 2.2.0a (alpha) 8/6/2012 - This is the initial release of CDE form The Open Group based on 2.1.30. Minimal changes to get it compiling on some common linux distros, primarily 32bit.
