Change Summary |
2002-06-10 |
- Added workarounds for Qt's rude introduction of keywords
signals and slots (patch by Thomas Witt)
|
2002-05-17 |
- Integrated into Boost CVS
- Document call behavior when no slots present (Thomas Witt)
- Document default combiner is
last_value
|
2002-04-10 |
- Added Frequently Asked Questions document.
- Added
visit_each discussion to the
design document.
- Made
deletion_test actually perform tests.
- Fixed
slot_call_iterator behavior when a slot
deletes the next slot after incrementing the
slot call iterator to that slot (i.e., when using the
*first++ syntax) again.
- Moved
last_value into the top-level Boost
directory and removed dependencies on Signals
library.
- Moved implementation detail headers
signal_base.hpp ,
signals_common.hpp and
slot_call_iterator.hpp into
boost/signals/detail .
- Moved
trackable and connection
classes into namespace
boost::signals .
- Moved implementation details from namespace
detail::signals to namespace
signals::detail .
- Fixed
signalN.hpp headers to use types
T1, T2, ..., TN instead of
T0, T1, ..., TN-1 . Added
appropriate typedefs argument_type ,
first_argument_type and
second_argument_type .
- Minor exception safety updates in constructors.
- Removed "controlling" connections from the public
interface. Added the
scoped_connection
class to pick up the slack, but with more obvious
semantics.
- Slot names have become connection groups. Slot call ordering
is now dependent on the connection group ordering, with
ungrouped slots being called last.
- Added testcase for slot call ordering.
|
2002-02-14 |
- Make sure all
shared_ptr copies are performed
only when complete types are available.
- Added test for dead slots.
- Removed use of
scoped_ptr (it made Borland C++
unhappy).
- Jamfile updates for the latest Jam changes in CVS.
- Validated HTML.
|
2002-01-19 |
- Refactored slot connection into
signal_base .
- Revisited exception safety in slot connection routines.
- Updated
slot_call_iterator to properly cache
values even when there are multiple input iterators.
- Changed
signal_base to use the handle/body idiom
via a shared_ptr . This enables safe recursive
deletion.
- Added a comprehensive connection-tracking test system based on
the Boost graph library. See
random_signal_system.cpp .
- Refactored slot class into a
slot_base class;
connection management code moved into slot.cpp .

- Added
slot class template so that slots may be
passed as arguments to non-template functions. (Karl
Nelson)
- Updated
signalN class templates to use the
new slot class template.
- Tutorial updated to contain information about
slot .
visit_each documentation added. (Karl
Nelson)
- More Borland C++ fixes.
|
2001-12-24 |
- Update to match
visit_each framework supported
by Boost.Bind
- Signals can be connected to other signals directly.
- Signals can be connected to references to slot function
objects (function objects are then not copied).
- Added
argI_type types to signal
classes, and cleaned up the corresponding
documentation (thanks to Bill Kempf).
- Document noncopyable requirement (thanks to Bill
Kempf).
- "Bindable" changed to "Trackable" (thanks to Peter Dimov).
- Added named slot connections (thanks for Peter Dimov for the suggestion, and Brad King for the push toward a small implementation).
- Trackable rationale documentation.
- Explicitly instantiate what Signals needs within the non-template source.
- Editorial fixes in the tutorial.
- Added examples directory.
- Added
SlotFunction template parameter to specify the type of object to hold the slot function objects (suggested by Peter Dimov).
- Documentation updates for
signalN classes.
- Link to all header files within the documentation for those header files.
- Moved all headers except
signal.hpp into signals subdirectory.
return_last_value renamed to last_value .
- Proper documentation for
last_value class.
|
2001-11-25 |
- Fixes for MSVC and Borland C++.
- Added Documentation: design rationale & comparisons with other signals & slots implementations.
- Signal connection now meets the strong exception guarantee.
- Jamfile fixes for building the "bindable.cpp" test
- Combined transform_iterator, skip_if_iterator, and
input_caching_iterator into a single
slot_call_iterator to reduce template depth and
compiler confusion.
|
2001-11-18 |
- Refactoring of signal connection management code.
- Exception safety greatly improved (it is now safe for slots to throw
exceptions)
- Uses Boost.Build
- Documentation (reference and tutorial)
- Updated to work with newer versions of Iterator
