Dick Borrett has pointed out
that the library no longer compiles in Ubuntu 9.x and later, due (apparently) to
changes in the native gettext,
getmaxx, and getmaxy functions and/or macros.
This is now hopefully fixed in the latest development snapshot.
I'm able to build in 64-bit Ubuntu 10.04, and to run the measily excuse
for test programs I've provided, but I admit that I've made no
extensive effort to test.

Fixed some instructions on the
home page, wherein "TurboC.a" was referenced rather than
"libTurboC.a". (Thanks to Swapnil Kamble for pointing this
problem out.)
|
02/18/04
|
Fixed PR #40, which doesn't
affect anybody but new users.
|
02/14/04
|
Fixed PR #39, which doesn't
affect anybody but new users, I think.
|
11/03/02
|
Fixed PR #38, which involved a gettext conflict in some newer
Linux versions.
|
12/16/02
|
Fixed PR #37, which keeps TurboC from compiling
with gcc 3.x and/or newer library versions.
|
| 06/09/02 |
Added outtext. |
| 06/08/02 |
outtextxy, textwidth, textheight,
settextstyle
, and settextjustify have now been implemented for DEFAULT_FONT
(the bitmapped font). Stroke fonts still need to be
implemented. |
| 06/02/02 |
20020602 snapshot released. The graphics.h
functionality is now essentially complete, except for the absence of
text-display functions (which can be worked around with Xib).
The
text-display functions are next on the to-do list. |
| 05/26/02 |
Added IBM-PC/Unicode translation table, in preparation for
implementing outtext. |
| 05/25/02 |
Added the functions getcolor, setallpalette,
sector, graphdefaults. |
| 05/24/02 |
Greatly improved the rationale for Pixmap allocation with getimage
, so that the freeimage function is no longer needed (and has
been dropped). Added the functions grapherrormsg, getpalettesize
, getmodename, getmaxmode, getmaxcolor. |
| 05/23/02 |
Added the getimage, putimage, and imagesize
functions. These functions need to be used wtih great care, and
unfortunately require image buffers to be explicitly freed with the
newly-invented
freeimage function. |
| 05/22/02 |
detectgraph now actually works more-or-less as
documented by
Borland, and is used by initgraph when appropriate. restorecrtmode
, setgraphmode, fillpoly have been added. A
fix was
made in closegraph. |
| 05/21/02 pm |
The user now cannot manually close the graphics window
(hopefully!). Added the functions bar3d, drawpoly,
getdrivername
. |
| 05/21/02 am |
The functions listed in the item below are still
"preliminary" but no
longer "buggy". Also, pieslice and fillellipse
now
correctly use the fill pattern/style, rather than just filling with the
solid
foreground color. |
| 05/20/02 |
Added preliminary but buggy versions of setfillstyle,
setfillpattern, getfillstyle, getfillsettings,
and
bar. |
| 05/19/02 |
Lots of stuff contributed by Igor Bujna was
added.
Thanks Igor! These include: sopen, struct
date
, dostounix,unixtodos, getdate, an
alternate version
of gettime (gettime_d), and biosprint.
As
a
side effect, there is now a bios.h header file. delay
was
added, and clock/CLK_TCK were adjusted to TurboC values
rather than
UNIX values. |
| 05/14/02 |
Added getpalette, getdefaultpalette, getcolor
, and getbkcolor. |
| 05/13/02 |
Fixed an unexpected interaction between setviewport
and
setvisualpage. Added the cleardevice and clearviewport
functions. |
| 05/10/02 |
Line-styles and write-modes now implemented. |
| 05/09/02 |
arc, circle, ellipse, fillellipse
, pieslice, getarccoords added. getch
now
works from within a graphics window, for "normal" keys. |
| 05/08/02 |
Added a lot of new graphics functions.Made
snapshot tarball much smaller by removing pointless Source Navigator
project files. |
| 05/07/02 |
Crude but workable support for a few graphics functions now
available. |
| 04/29/02 |
Began adding support for graphics.h. (Doesn't do
anything interesting yet.) |
| 04/20/02 |
Fixed some missing escape-key sequences for F1-F5,F10 when
running remotely.
Fixed a timing problem with initial screen sizing that appeared only
when
running remotely. Screen redraw after resizing finally reliable,
I
think. Fixed the FreeBSD compile, which was broken. Also, added
advice
on running in FreeBSD. |
| 04/19/02 |
20020419 snapshot released. Incorporated delays to
account for timing problems in screen resizing. |
| 04/18/02 |
The strcpy and strncpy now compile
correctly if implemented as macros. Big deal: The very
annoying screen-sizing problem is
apparently now fixed under xterm. |
| 03/31/02 |
A callback function, ConioResizeCallback is now
activated upon
console resizing. Apps no longer segfault on being resized too
small
(I think). ncurses is now terminated properly if
the
ported app is sent a KILL or TERM signal. |
| 03/24/02 |
Fixed PR#22 (strings like strcmp implemented as
macros fail to compile if optimization is on). Display speed
substantially increased by delaying wrefresh during cputs.
xterm screen
resizing is now bypassed if there's no TERM=xterm environment
variable. Fixed PR#21 (tabbing broken). |
| 03/23/02 |
Now builds under Mac OS X (but doesn't fully work) if ncurses
is installed. 20020323 snapshot released. Fixed PR#20
(improper update of non-fullscreen window after movetext
& puttext). The getftime function is now
working. Added the _setcursortype function.
Added the directvideo, _directvideo, and _wscroll
variables. |
| 03/21/02 |
Added the getpass function. Fixed cgets
bugs PR#17-19. In fact, cgets had been shockingly
screwed up. The functions insline and delline
have been added. |
| 03/20/02 |
The functions findfirst and findnext have
been added. |
| 03/19/02 |
Now provides a constant __libTurboC__ for Turbo C
backward compatibility. Now builds both libTurboC.a (translated
integer types) and libTurboCu.a (untranslated). |
| 03/18/02 |
Fixed TurboC header files so that they work with C++
programs. Fixed Makefile so that TurboC headers don't have
to be system headers to build
the library. |
| 03/17/02 |
20020317 snapshot released. Added the gettext,
puttext, and movetext functions.
Fixed
a serious bug (PR#14) in window management. Linedraw and
other
weird displayable characters added to putch et al. |
| 03/16/02 |
Greatly enhanced special-key support, including all Alt-keys
and improved Fn keys. Fixed PR#11 (non-working
unshifted keys on numeric
keypad). Partial fix PR#9: Physical console is now
automatically
resized with xterm. |
| 03/12/02 |
20020312 snapshot released. |
| 03/02/02 |
Many changes, particularly involving integer datatypes. |
| 02/03/02 |
Web page created. |
