0.1.7 2004/10/10
- added commands: display, ldisplay, undisplay to dump
specified memory locations after each single step
(thanks to ziberpunk <ziberpunk =at= ziberghetto dhis org>
for the suggestion and code)
- all Makefiles are now based on automake in the hopes
that this will fix some of the problems integrating
ald into the *BSD ports systems
- bug fix where a pointer wasn't set to NULL after
clearing program arguments with the "set args" command
- this is related to the previous feature: if the effective
address lies inside a symbol/function, the corresponding
symbol is now displayed
- for CALL and JMP instructions, exact target/effective
addresses are now computed
(code for this was contributed by Samuel Falvo II
<kc5tja =at= arrl net>)
- upgraded all configure scripts to autoconf v2.59
0.1.6 2004/07/23
- 2 bug fixes in "examine" command relating to dumping large
numbers of bytes
(found by mbe21 <mbe21 =at= o2 pl>)
- bug fix where ~/.aldrc was not saved on ^D
- minor memory leak fix which would occur in the loading
of ~/.aldrc on startup
(found by Alfredo Beaumont <ziberpunk =at= ziberghetto dhis org>)
- more graceful handling of when the debugged program
receives an unknown signal
- "examine" command can now take section and symbol
names in addition to numerical addresses
- fix for libreadline detection in autoconf
- ripped out all ncurses related code
- minor memory leak fix: During print bursts, users may
hit 'q' or ^C to stop the burst. This is implemented
via a longjmp() call, but if memory was allocated
beforehand, it would not have been freed since longjmp()
alters the path of execution. A simple list structure
was implemented to fix this.
- fixed some issues related to upgrade to autoconf 2.58
- bumped LICENSE up to GPL v2
- "register" command now defaults to compact output format
- fixed some minor disassembly bugs
- got ald to compile on NetBSD 1.6.2
(many thanks to Brad Spencer for providing me with
a NetBSD shell account)
0.1.5p1 2003/10/14
- bandaid to top level Makefile.in to make ald compile
in OpenBSD's ports system
0.1.5 2003/10/11
- "file secinfo" command can now output information on
a.out sections
- added TODO and BUGS files
- fixed problems relating to changing values of fpu
special purpose registers
- added some missing SSE instructions to libDASM
- OpenBSD support is back: fixed compile problems relating to
fpu code, tested on 3.3 release
- bug fixes in disassembling various MMX instructions
(thanks to Peter Boettcher for patch)
- changed library libDisasm to libDASM (Debugger's Assembler
Library) in anticipation of its new capability to assemble
instructions
- added OSABI information to elf header parsing in libOFF
(someone sent me a patch for this ages ago - sorry for
taking so long!)
- added -DNDEBUG to turn off assert() in out-of-the-box
compiles
- bug fix in a.out parser: now checks for QMAGIC binaries
- "file symbols" command has changed to "file syminfo" and you
can now use "file syminfo [symbol name]" to get information for
a specific symbol
- added libOFF to handle all the object file format stuff
0.1.4 2003/07/09
- libOp has been replaced with the rewritten library libDisasm
which has a better overall design
- incorporated hp's patch:
. "disassemble" command now shows symbol information.
Also added "set disasm-show-syms" to toggle this feature on/off.
. added ascii output for all size memory dumps
. bug fix in elf header parsing
- added ~/.aldrc configuration file to save settings
- fixed MSB problem when setting register values
0.1.3 2002/06/29
- added "set step-display-mmxregs" option to display mmx registers after single
stepping
- "lbreak" command now shows the name of the symbol containing each breakpoint, if
any
0.1.2 2002/06/14
- added "set step-display-fpregs" option to display fpu registers after single
stepping
- added "-all" flag to "register" command to output fpu registers
- fix for disassembling fld opcodes
- fix in elf parser for executables with no section name string table present
0.1.1 2002/04/24
- bug fix in disassembling opcodes with /digit fields
- bug fix in setting breakpoints which are close together
- bug fix in handling of runtime arguments
- new man page
0.1.0 2002/04/13
- added attach/detach commands
- added human readable flags register output
- minor bugfixes

developer is officially maintaining the package.
The rationale for changing this from "tech-pkg" to "pkgsrc-users" is
that it implies that any user can try to maintain the package (by
submitting patches to the mailing list). Since the folks most likely
to care about the package are the folks that want to use it or are
already using it, this would leverage the energy of users who aren't
developers.

${PKGNAME}, so that the WRKSRC definition is immune from any subsequent
PKGREVISION changes. With thanks to jmc for the nudge.

Should anybody feel like they could be the maintainer for any of thewe packages,
please adjust.

ALD is an Assembly Language Debugger written by Patrick Alken. It's
released under the GPL and has a familiar feel to it if you're used
to GDB. Primary features include stepping, tracing, disassembly, a
nice curses-based display, breakpoints, temporary breakpoints, and
some library abstractions that people can use in their own software.
This package is x86 only at the moment.
Modified slightly by myself to conform to pkgsrc standards.
