MinGW does not natively support the POSIX sleep() function so we have
had an override that was a part of the GR_PWIN32 macro and included in
the generated config.h file. When compiling for Windows on POSIX using
MinGW, Autotools will detect sleep() and set HAVE_SLEEP which prevented
the substitution from being included in the source. Adding a test for
_WIN32 (set by MinGW's gcc) then caused a warning from src/network.c on
POSIX about winsock2.h needing to be included before windows.h. As
config.h needed to be included first, the solution to break out the
substitution that includes windows.h into its own file. This patch
provides that solution and allows the code to compile cleanly on POSIX,
using MinGW on both POSIX and Windows, and on Cygwin.
The Automake manual makes it clear that certain user variables such as
CC, CFLAGS, CXXFLAGS, CPPFLAGS, and so on are to be preserved for the
user running configure. This patch cleans up such assignments and
assures that PTHREAD_CFLAGS and so forth are applied to those targets
that require it.
Trying to run the pthread enabled binaries on W2k resulted in an error
dialog with the text, "The procedure entry point freeaddrinfo could not be
located in ws2_32.dll". A Microsoft support page
(http://support.microsoft.com/kb/955045) hints that when 'ws2tcpip.h' is
included that 'wspiapi.h' should be included as well. Since MinGw
includes both files, this patch corrects the runtime error on W2k
The AX_PTHREAD macro sets the PTHREAD_LIBS variable, however we were not
providing this variable to the needed *_LDFLAGS variable. With the
addition of PTHREAD_LIBS, rigctld and rotctld are now multi-threaded on
MS Windows. Tested on Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows 7.
Setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH for testcpp and testrig in the generated test
shell scripts corrects a long-standing bug that broke 'make check'.
Add Hamlib_design.eps to allow 'make dvi' to succeed when running
'make distcheck'.
Document Readline and history additions to rotctl along with new
-i/--read-history and -I/--save-history options.
Document use of ROTCTL_HIST_DIR environment variable to set an alternate
path for the .rotctl_history file.
Other minor edits.
As commands from a previous session may not be desired, make reading the
history file at rotctl start and writing to it at rotctl close optional
by use of the -i/--read_history or -I/--save-history options.
Compilation is conditional on having Readline and Readline History
support detected at build system configuration time.
History is stored in '$HOME/.rotctl_history' by default. An alternate
path may be specified by setting the ROTCTL_HIST_DIR environment
variable:
$ ROTCTL_HIST_DIR=~/.rotctl rotctl -iI
will temporarily set the history directory to /home/USER/.rotctl and
create .rotctl_history if it does not exist. If the file cannot be read
or written a warning message will be given on stderr.
Implement first cut at storing and recalling history. At this point
history is retained for the current session only.
History is stored as complete command lines even if values are entered
at separate prompts. Readline allows editing and even deleting recalled
history lines.
Initial implementation of Readline input handling. Only if 'configure'
finds Readline will it be enabled and when enabled it will only be used
by rotctl in interactive mode. Passing rotator commands from the rotctl
command line and rotctld use the original input handling which has not
been modified.
Document Readline and history additions to rigctl along with new
-i/--read-history and -I/--save-history options.
Document use of RIGCTL_HIST_DIR environment variable to set an alternate
path for the .rigctl_history file.
Other minor edits.

The rigctl and rigctld programs support a so far undocumented feature of
being able to query supported modes in set_mode and set_split_mode,
Funcs in set_func and get_func, Levels in set_level and get_level, Parms
in set_parm and get_parm, as well as the vfo_op, scan, ans set_trn
functions. The query may be used to get a list of supported tokens for
a given function by a rig backend.
In response to a long standing request from Tor, N4OGW, and others, RIT
and XIT are added as members for the rig_set/get_func() members.
"RIT"/"XIT" have been added as tokens. The dummy rig backend and
testrig.c have been updated for these new functions.
Applications should test a backend with the rig_has_set/get_func() and
test for RIG_FUNC_RIT or RIG_FUNC_XIT. A non-zero result indicates
these functions are implemented by a given rig backend. It will take
some time for all backends to migrate to this new implementation. Once
implemented, RIT or XIT should be set to '0' to 'clear' the value
without deactivating the rig's RIT/XIT function. The dummy/dummy.c file
can be used as a simple guide for backend authors implementing this
behavior.
If libgd-dev is not installed, an Automake conditional will disable the
rigmatrix.html target in tests/Makefile. Optionally, this target may
also be disabled by use of the '--disable-html-matrix' option passed to
the configure script. By default the configure script will enable the
target if the libgd development files are found and disable it when they
are not.
Cleaned up M4sh syntax for variable quoting, replaced shell 'if'
conditionals with M4sh AS_IF macro and shell 'case' with AS_CASE macro.
Properly quoted macro variables. Added comments to configure.ac
describing actions, commented out obsolete macros, commented obsolecent
macros, and added comments for major sections.
Corrected a Mingw linker error on the .EXE files adding
'--enable-auto-import' to their LD flags. Testing this commit on win32
shows that rigctld is now working properly. Will need to port this to
the Stable branch and test.
Replaced older local macros with newer replacements from GNU Autoconf
archive.
The output from [rig|rot]ctl[d] using the -l|--list option is now sorted
by model number in ascending order. Document it.
(cherry picked from commit 45def7bbcf)
Implemented hash table to temporarily store and sort the rig models by ID
to print the --list by model numbers. Hash is implemented using
uthash.h, see http://uthash.sourceforge.net/
Suppressed rig backend register output by setting rig_debug_level to 0
for list output.
Removed riglist definition of RPC backend.

Implement several simple shell scripts to exercise various aspects of
Hamlib. The previous implementation relied on the installation of
DejaGNU and the tests/config and tests/*.test directories were not
distributed. Also, later Autotools documenation seems to suggest that
DejaGNU is to be replaced by Autotest. The generation and use of simple
scripts was chosen to provide a usable check target until Autotest can
be supported.
Various strncpy operations could result in a port pathname that is not a
NULL terminated string as the allowed string length is the same size as
the buffer per the strncpy manual page. This is corrected by assuring
that the allowed length is FILPATHLEN - 1.
