1998-10-14  Olaf Bachmann  <obachman@mathematik.uni-kl.de>
        * MP_Error.c: Added prefix MP: to error strings, added skip & init 
        message errors, added procedure MP_StatusErrorStr

        * MP_PariBigInt.[c,h]: Added memory management functions for Pari
        Bigints 

        * MP_TcpTransp.c: added MP_KillLink, -MPrsh option to MP_OpenLink

        * MP_Util.c: Added IMP_StrDup function

1998-04-16  Olaf Bachmann  <obachman@mathematik.uni-kl.de>

        * MP_Util.c (IMP_GetCmdlineArg): Allow long option names

        * MP_TcpTransp.c (open_tcp_launch_mode): When long option names
        were used for specification of MPapplication, use long option
        names for MP options which are appended to application. 

Mon Jun 30 17:46:17 1997  Olaf Bachmann  <obachman@ratchwum.mathematik.uni-kl.de (Olaf Bachmann)>

        * if no -MPhost spec is given, use env->thishost as default

        * got rid of RSH_N and
          RSH_HOST --- $rsh hostname -n command seems to work everywhere

        * MP_TcpTransp.c (open_tcp_launch_mode): incoporated
          MP_RSH_COMMAND which is set by configure; 

Wed Jun 25 09:04:25 1997  Olaf Bachmann  <obachman@ratchwum.mathematik.uni-kl.de (Olaf Bachmann)>

        * MP_Env.c: extern "C" wrapper for includes sys/stat.h 

        * MP_Put.c: changed bool identifier to mbool to avaoid clashes
          when compiling with g++

Fri Jun 20 11:24:18 1997  Olaf Bachmann  <obachman@ratchwum.mathematik.uni-kl.de (Olaf Bachmann)>

        * MP_Link.c: MP_SetLinkOptions: case MP_LINK_LOG_MASK_OPT,
          assigned oldval

Fri Jun  6 15:55:04 1997  Olaf Bachmann  <obachman@ratchwum.mathematik.uni-kl.de (Olaf Bachmann)>

        * MP_Env.c: Used RawMem function for allocation of
          env->logfilename

Tue May 27 13:57:13 1997  Olaf Bachmann  <obachman@ratchwu>

        * MP_TcpTransp.h: Added fork mode to MPtcp links

Tue May 27 13:57:13 1997  Olaf Bachmann  <obachman@ratchwu>

        * MP_TcpTransp.[h,c]: Added fork mode to MPtcp links

Tue May 20 17:38:53 1997  Olaf Bachmann  <obachman@ratchwum.mathematik.uni-kl.de (Olaf Bachmann)>

        * Makefile.in (target MP.h): explicitely user perl to call makeheaders

Sat May  3 19:55:06 1997  Olaf Bachmann  <obachman@ratchwum.mathematik.uni-kl.de (Olaf Bachmann)>

        * MP_BigNum.c Changed MP_DEFAULT_BIG* to MP_DEFAULT_AP to reflect
          names choosen in configure

        * MP_Memory.c (mrealloc): inserted return statements

        * MP_TcpTransp.c: added #include <string.h> for declaration of strcat
        
        * MP_TcpTransp.c: added stdlib.h which conatins declaration of
          atoi, strtol

        * MP_TcpTransp.c: added #include <unistd.h> which contains
          declaration of gethostname, vfork, execvp, close (at least on
          the HP's)

        * MP_Util.c, MP_Env.s: added */ at the end of intro header

        * MP_Get.c: (MP_GetApIntPacket, MP_GetApRealPacket) Fixed logging
          so that *num_annots instead of num_annot is printed

        * Makefile.in (CPPFLAGS): Put -I. before other CPPFLAGS

Fri May  2 14:18:02 1997  Simon Gray  (sgray@Pooh)

        * MP_Env.c, MPFileTransp.c, MP_Link.c, MP_PvmTransp.c,
          MP_TbTransp.c, MP_TcpTransp.c, MP_Env.h - Changed transp_type to
          transp_dev which is more accurate and descriptive and doesn't
          clash with the use of "type" in MP types (e.g., MP_Sint32Type).
          Also changed the defines in MP_Env.h from MP_<dev>TranspType to
          MP_<dev>TranspDev.

Fri Apr 18 12:21:41 1997  Olaf Bachmann  <obachman@ratchwum.mathematik.uni-kl.de
 (Olaf Bachmann)>

         * MP_TcpTransp.c (open_tcp_launch_mode): Determine the length of
           appstr using rsh_argv[3] instead of rsh_argv[2]


Fri Apr  11 17:06:35 1997  Simon Gray  (sgray@Pooh)

        * MP_Link.c: Changed order of cval and dtag for MP_PeekHeader() 
          to make it consistent with all the Put and Get routines.

Tue Apr  8 12:28:36 1997  Olaf Bachmann  <obachman@ratchwum.mathematik.uni-kl.de
 (Olaf Bachmann)>

        * MP_Get.c (MP_GetAnnotationPacket) Fixed logging so that *atype,
          *dtag is printed instead of atype, dtag

        * MP_TcpTransp.c (open_tcp_connect_mode): Used strtoul instead of
          sscanf to get the port number: sscanf chocked on the HP's if
          given a const string (believe it or not, it tried to do an
          ungetc in between!)

Fri Apr  4 17:42:35 1997  Simon Gray  (sgray@Pooh)

        * MP_SacBigInt.c: Completed changes and done testing.  

Sat Mar 29 10:11:05 1997  Simon Gray  (sgray@Pooh)

        * MP_Link.c: Changed logging code that could overflow the fixed
          size log_msg array to use a dynamically allocated msg array.

        * MP_TbTransp.c: Added mp_tb_flush() to the transport interface to
          make it consistent with the new ADI.  The routine is empty for
          now.  

        * MP_FileTransp.c: Fixed logging bug in file_open_connection() so
          now it allocates memory for the logging message.  If the
          filename is big, we were running out of room in the fixed-size
          log_msg char array.

        * MP_Env.c: Changed MP_SetEnvBigIntlFormat() and
          MP_SetEnvBigRealFormat() so that they will accept a set of
          user-supplied routines that is different from those already
          supported by MP (GMP, PARI, SAC).  We cannot make any check that
          the supplied routines are correct!

        * Makefile.in: Removed all references to $(MP_ARCH) which is
          obsolete because it is handled by configure.

Fri Mar 28 09:57:03 1997  Simon Gray  (sgray@Pooh)

        * Makefile.in: (in MP dir)  updated install to install the header
          files in the location specified by --prefix to configure.  Also
          updated uninstall to rm these files.

        * MP_Put.c, MP_Get.c: updated MP_Put/GetAnnotationPacket()
          logging.  Annotations are spread out through a variety of header
          files, so giving a string version of the annotation is not
          practical at this time.  Maybe have they are stable we can
          create function to do a (dtag, atype) mapping to a string.

        * MP_Put.c: Fixed ommission in MP_PutMetaType() so that it now
          sends the dictionary tag.

Fri Mar 28 21:53:37 1997  Olaf Bachmann <obachman@ratchwum.mathematik.uni-kl.de
 (Olaf Bachmann)>

        * MP_Util.c Added MP_ErrorStr() to return an error string.  This
          function returns the string that MP_PrintError() would have
          printed as determined by the value of link->errno.

Wed Mar 26 13:30:42 1997  Simon Gray  (sgray@Pooh)

        * MP_Util.c: - removed references to obsolete MpOperator.

Wed Mar 26 16:53:41 1997  Olaf Bachmann <obachman@ratchwum.mathematik.uni-kl.de
 (Olaf Bachmann)>

        * MP_Env.c: open_log_file: For Unix, added chmod a+rw for logfiles

Mon Mar 24 16:43:52 1997  Olaf Bachmann <obachman@ratchwum.mathematik.uni-kl.de
 (Olaf Bachmann)>

        * Introduced MP error MP_CantOpenFile to MP_Error.[h,c]

Sun Mar 23 10:59:20 1997  Simon Gray  (sgray@Pooh)

        * MP_GmpBigInt.c: fixed incorrect name for IMP_GmpIntAsciiSize().


        * MP_Env.c: Added MP_SetEnvBigRealFormat() and updated
          MP_SetEnvBigIntFormat(). 

Sat Mar 22 13:37:32 1997  Simon Gray  (sgray@Pooh)

        * MP_TcpTransp.c: set TCP_NODELAY option on the socket so that it
          won't attempt to coalesce small hunks of data (e.g., small MP
          trees) to fill a single TCP buffer.  We want to trees to be sent
          out, as promised, when the write operation is done and completed
          when the MP_EndMsg() call is done.

        * MP_FileTransp.[c,h]: Added file_flush() routine and updated code
          to use FILE * instead of int file descriptor.  This change was 
          made to support the new flush routine.

Mon Mar 17 16:54:52 1997  Simon Gray  (sgray@Pooh)

        * MP_Get.[c,h], MP_Put.[c.h], MP_Env.c, MP_Vector.c - updated
          routines to use the new ordering (dict, value) instead of
          (value, dict).
      
        * MP_Put.[c,h], MP_Get.[c,h] - "MetaPacket" changed to
          "MetaTypePacket" and parameter for dictionary added.

        * MP_Env.c, MP_Link.c - updated routines to use numeric values for
          transport types instead of string names.

        * MP_TcpTransp.c, MP_TbTransp.c, MP_FileTransp.c, MP_PvmTransp.c -
          dumped string name (e.g., "TCP", "FILE"), now using an int
          defined in MP_Env.h  


Sun Mar 16 10:39:20 1997  Olaf Bachmann  <obachman@schlupp.mathematik.uni-kl.de (Olaf Bachmann)>

        * Updated names of dict defined items to reflect agreed upon
          naming scheme

Sat Mar 15 16:53:46 1997  Olaf Bachmann  <obachman@schlupp.mathematik.uni-kl.de (Olaf Bachmann)>

        * Makefile.in (depend): added target "depend" to MP/Makefile.in and
          MPT/Makefile.in 

        * added MPT lib to MP distribution: *.c files into subdir MPT;
          MPT.h int include/; changed Makefile.in and configure to built
          MPT, as well.

        * added targets tar, star, tags to Makefile.in

        * Makefile.in, README: shortly explained how to customize
          compilation w.r.t. BigNum's, gave examples in Makefile.in

        * MP_Env.c: open_logfile: For Unix, use stat(...) to determine
          whether logfile exists (instead of fopen(..,"r")): The latter
          fails for cases where file exists but is not readable/writable
          by current user.

        * Tossed #include "MP_CommonConstantDict.h", and  #include
          "CommonOpDict.h" from MP.h

        * fixed logging of MetaOps

        * MP_Get.c, MP_Put.c MP_Util.c made independent of
          MP_MetaTypesDict.h and tossed #include "MP_MetaTypesDict.h" from
          MP.h


Fri Mar 14 10:28:57 1997  Olaf Bachmann  <obachman@schlupp.mathematik.uni-kl.de (Olaf Bachmann)>

        * MP_FileTransp.c: file_init_transport: initalize bignum format of
          link to GMP -- the "MP default" one

        * MP_GmpBigReal.c: changed determination of size of _mp_d to
          apreal->_mp_prec + 1 

        * MP_Error.c (MP_errlist): added MP_DummyBigNum

        * MP_Env.c: Initialization of bignum format when opening an Env
          set to imp_default_* 

Fri Mar 14 09:29:34 1997  Olaf Bachmann  <obachman@ratchwum.mathematik.uni-kl.de (Olaf Bachmann)>

        * MP_Put.c: Changed argument type of ApNum's from ApNum_pt to ApNum_t

Thu Mar 13 17:38:52 1997  Olaf Bachmann  <obachman@ratchwum.mathematik.uni-kl.de (Olaf Bachmann)>

        * updated Makefile.in to refelct new BigNum philosopy

        * Cleaned up logging in MP_Put.c MP_Get.c to use extended BigNum
          interface functions

        * added MP_PariBigInt.c

        * tore MP_BigNum.c apart into MP_BigNum.c, MP_GmpBigInt.c,
          MP_GmpBigReal.c


Mon Aug 19 15:31:27 1996  Marcus Thiessel  <thiessel@cochlea.e-technik.uni-kl.de>

        * MP_SacBigInt.c: Not really important changes. Only function
        definitions fixed to work with _ANSI_ARGS_ macro. Functions
        declared static are left out.

        * MP_TbTransp.c: Not really important changes. Only function
        definitions fixed to work with _ANSI_ARGS_ macro. Functions
        declared static are left out.

Fri Aug 16 17:09:39 1996  Marcus Thiessel  <thiessel@cochlea.e-technik.uni-kl.de>

        * Makefile: The Makefile is modified to support all feature of
        HP-UX A.09.05 environment.

        * MP_FileTransp.c: changes in progress for this file. The stuff
        about the WIN95/NT port. (done by Eckhard Hennig)

        * MP_Link.c: changes in progress for this file.
