The changelog for 0.2.7 in terms meaningful to technical end-users.
+
This is the changelog for ReactOS™ version 0.2.7 (released August 22, 2005), an open-source operating system designed to be binary executable- and device driver-compatible with Microsoft™ Windows NT™ and subsequent Microsoft operating systems such as Windows 2000™ and Windows XP™.  ReactOS is written by the ReactOS development team, and the last previous version of ReactOS was [[ChangeLog-0.2.6|version 0.2.6]] (released April 10, 2005).

==General==
=== Overview ===
+
With the release of 0.2.7, ReactOS has again gained further compatibility with Microsoft™ Windows™The headers for ReactOS have been aligned with those of the Windows Software Development Kit (SDK), which gives us a greater range of driver compatibility.  ReactOS has also been updated to be compliant with the latest GNU™ C Compiler (GCC)—''i.e.'', GCC version 4—which, with our new build system provides a faster and more efficient build process.  We have elected a new user interface (UI) coordinator, and work has begun to modify the interfaces seen by the user.
With the release of 0.2.7 we, the ReactOS Team, have once again gained further compatibility with Microsoft Windows.  We have aligned our headers with those of the Windows SDK which gives us a greater range of driver compatibility.  We have also keep ourselves compliant with the latest GCC compiler which with our new build system provides a faster and more efficient building processing.  We have elected a new UI coordinator and work has begun to redo the interfaces seen by the user. Many of our advancements not be easily seen by the end user, rest assured that the inter workings are coming together with work in USB, Plug and Play, and networking that will blow you away in our next release.
+
 
 +
Apart from the UI work, many of these improvements are of an "under-the-hood" nature and, while quite important to the rapid progress of the project, are not necessarily obvious to the end user.  However, these refinements to the ReactOS infrastructure facilitate the ongoing advancements in USB, Plug and Play, and networking functionality that will be prominent features of the next upcoming release.

* Added SVN rev. 15043 and userhooks only for the mouse&mdash;the mouse now works in tribles in windowed mode, but in full screen it is a bit choppy; however, this has not been tested in tribles on ReactOS with the new code

Add svn rev 15043 + only userhooks for the mouse
 
at last the mouse are working in tribles windows mode
 
but in full screen it is bit chopy. Not tested tribles

Latest revision as of 13:44, 7 September 2008

This is the changelog for ReactOS™ version 0.2.7 (released August 22, 2005), an open-source operating system designed to be binary executable- and device driver-compatible with Microsoft™ Windows NT™ and subsequent Microsoft operating systems such as Windows 2000™ and Windows XP™. ReactOS is written by the ReactOS development team, and the last previous version of ReactOS was version 0.2.6 (released April 10, 2005).

General

With the release of 0.2.7, ReactOS has again gained further compatibility with Microsoft™ Windows™. The headers for ReactOS have been aligned with those of the Windows Software Development Kit (SDK), which gives us a greater range of driver compatibility. ReactOS has also been updated to be compliant with the latest GNU™ C Compiler (GCC)—i.e., GCC version 4—which, with our new build system provides a faster and more efficient build process. We have elected a new user interface (UI) coordinator, and work has begun to modify the interfaces seen by the user.

Apart from the UI work, many of these improvements are of an "under-the-hood" nature and, while quite important to the rapid progress of the project, are not necessarily obvious to the end user. However, these refinements to the ReactOS infrastructure facilitate the ongoing advancements in USB, Plug and Play, and networking functionality that will be prominent features of the next upcoming release.

Main 0.2.7 Changes

  • Header clean-up for compatibility with Windows SDK headers; implemented and used NDK; ReactOS is now built with our own headers (Alex Ionescu, Filip Navara, and Steven Edwards)
  • New My Computer, command prompt, and ReactOS logo icons (Mindflyer)
  • New build system called rbuild which is based on the eXtensible Markup Language (XML), and which allows for automatically generated makefiles (Casper Hornstup)
  • Improved appearance of the first-stage installer (Alex Ionescu)
  • GCC 4.x.x build fixes (Thomas Weidenmueller and Alex Ionescu)

Known Bugs

  • ReactOS fails to boot on some hardware and reports an AllocConsole error when no PS/2-style mouse is attached (see Bug 688)
  • This ReactOS release requires 64 MB of RAM to complete the first-stage installer (see Bug 703)

    • Cleaned up IopAllocateVpb
    • Optimized IoCreateDevice, added support for more flags and removed hard-coded sector size and incorrect sizes which were previously set
    • Fixed IRP Code not to zero out the IRP, to free MDLs in failure cases, to set the correct IRP flags and to set the I/O object type
    • Reimplemented second-stage completion for IRPs to free ALL MDLs, to free memory depending on the flags used, not to call I/O Completion if an APC is registered, not to set event/call APCs in some failure cases, and not to use certain fields after the pointer can become invalid
    • Uses the correct stack count in I/O operations
    • Fixed IopDeleteFile to fix a memory leak and to dereference the completion port
    • Fixed IopCloseFile, NtQueryInformationFile, NtFlushBuffersFile, NtQueryDirectoryFile, NtReadFile, NtWriteFile, NtSetInformationFile, IopSecurityFile, IopQueryFileName, NtDeviceIoControlFile, NtLockFile, and NtUnlockFile, which contained several bugs related to IRPs and completion, were making assumptions or not supporting all the appropriate possibilities, were signaling the wrong event or making the wrong kind of call, or were using the wrong device object
    • Implemented lookaside lists for IRP packets to increase the allocation/deallocation speed by over 400%
    • Optimized completion packets by piggybacking them on IRP packets if possible, and added the correct memory flags to free them properly

    • Implemented MmCreateKernelStack and MmDeleteKernelStack
    • Took out many system structures from non-paged pool to paged pool, to reduce physical memory consumption
    • Removed pool debugging functions in retail builds to increase execution speed
    • Prohibit NtQueryVirtualMemory for kernel-mode addresses
    • Fixed bug in memory mapping which caused large applications to trigger the “blue screen of death” (BSOD)

  • Executive (Ex)
    • Fixed the lookaside functions, their macros and the way the functions were being exported

    • Implemented Object Create Information structure and semantics when capturing data from user-mode, securing and removing a lot of potential kernel exploits
    • Fixed ObCreateObject and ObInsertObject to work as in Microsoft Windows— ObCreateObject only allocates the object, while ObInsertObject does everything else
  • File System Runtime (FsRtl)
    • FsRtlMdlRead, FsRtlMdlReadComplete, FsMdlReadCompleteDev, FsRtlMdlWRiteComplete, FsRtlMdlWriteCompleteDev, FsRtlPrepareMdlWrite, CcMdlReadCompleted, CcMdlWriteComplete, CcMdlReadCompleteDev, FsRtlAllocateResource, FsRtlIsPagingFile, FsRtlBalanceReads

    • left to do: check that all CMD commands are set to the correct value

  • Bugfix: date now prints out the names of the days of the week
