2015-08-16	Thread safety update for the previous commit. I left one structure access	Mike Buland
	unprotected, but fortunately this time I was able to use a read lock which is much lest nasty and persistant.
2015-08-16	Fixed a highly essoteric issue. The ReadWriteMutex was locked in write while	Mike Buland
	syncing changes. That was important so that more changes wouldn't be added while we're writing, but it also meant that in a very particular circumstance where one thread was syncing changes, another was marking changes as having happened, and another locked an object that was being written because it had changes they would all deadlock. This should be fixed now.
2015-08-16	Couldn't print out the minimum value for any given signed integer. I fixed the	Mike Buland
	code, but I have a feeling the fix could be much better. I'll look into it later on.
2015-07-20	Added a close function. It's nice to be able to close your connection whenever	Mike Buland
	you want to.
2015-07-14	constant cache pointers can now be bound and unbound. It may seem odd, but it's	Mike Buland
	important, they are references to constant data, weather they should be able to become bound still.
2015-07-07	In theory the protocol client shouldn't send a backspace to indicate that a	Mike Buland
	backspace key was pressed, backspace is to move the cursor back one non-destructively, DEL is sent to indicate that a backspace was pressed. I now treat BS as DEL when serving because some clients (windows), send the BS instead of DEL key and everything else just seems to take it. I think there's a way to negotiate that, which I'll look into later.
2015-07-07	Fixed the buffering code in ProtocolTelnet to clear the buffer before handing	Mike Buland
	you the next line.
2015-06-16	Const chnaged functions. I think this makes sense.	Mike Buland

2014-11-28	Heh, autoconfig didn't work on systems without /dev/null	Mike Buland
	(caugh windows caugh)
2014-11-28	Autoconfig now detects libraries that libbu++ can use and generates the	Mike Buland
	appropriate headers. bin2cpp now uses those headers to compile correctly despite having missing filters.
2014-11-28	Minor tweak to bin2cpp, it now will now include a comment showing you the name	Mike Buland
	of each file in the source. It would be nice to have an enumeration or something at some point too.
2014-10-03	Tweaked Bu::Uuid loading to pad it's data more cleanly. This will help ensure	Mike Buland
	that we don't get valgrind errors, and is probably safer in general. Added Bu::ArchiveStream. It could use some tweaks, but as a quick hack it's handy to allow systems that can only read/write from/to streams to work with archives.
2014-08-14	Neither the Bu::Client class or the Bu::ProtocolTelnet class were threadsafe	Mike Buland
	and both really need to be. Bu::Client is used in multi-threaded applications and has been for a while, so it's a no brainer. It may need a little bit more safety added around variable access, but all the buffers are safe now. ProtocolTelnet has it's own issus, and I should probably rework a few parts of it before too long so we can better accomidate things like line editing.
2014-08-12	Minor tweak to the read/write mutex test.	Mike Buland

2014-08-08	The cache didn't handle syncing objects that were marked changed and then	Mike Buland
	deleted before the sync could occur properly. They are now ignored during sync.
2014-07-22	Deferred erase now works on cache entries. You can erase a cache entry while	Mike Buland
	it still has active references, and it will be safely cleaned up when the last reference is released.
2014-06-13	Telnet really needed a flush function. Now it has one.	Mike Buland
	We can't be waiting for an update later on to flush our buffers all the time!
2014-03-05	Added a method to null/clear a cache pointer, and one to see if it's set at all.	Mike Buland

2014-02-03	Corrected Myriad unit test on 64 bit platforms.	Mike Buland
	I assumed a long would be 4 bytes, that was silly!
2014-02-03	Changed copyright to 2007-2014.	Mike Buland

2014-02-03	We needed a new pregenerated signals.h for make builds.	Mike Buland

2014-02-03	Compiles with LLVM 3.4 as well now.	Mike Buland

2014-02-02	I can make it compile with gcc or LLVM, but not both yet.	Mike Buland

2014-01-30	Updated Makefile, I used g++ instead of ${CXX} in several places.	Mike Buland

2014-01-30	Attempting to fix OSX compatibility, it's not 100%, but it builds and most ↵	Mike Buland
	things seem to work. We've also tested against LLVM.
2014-01-22	Updated the cache system. It now ensures that objects are initialized with	Mike Buland
	cache information before they are deserialized from storage. This changed the signature of the cache loading template function, but the new function isn't harder to use, and provides the key information as well.
2013-07-26	Got rid of the last non-const formatter << operator references.	Mike Buland

2013-07-26	Fixed some random whining issues, dropped extra char * formatter references,	Mike Buland
	and fixed a null/integer issue in Bu::Hash
2013-07-26	Removed an incorrect formatter << operator, and corrected a const_iterator vs	Mike Buland
	iterator issue in Bu::String.
2013-07-20	Added a Locker class to the Bu::CacheObject base class. This is a super simple	Mike Buland
	wrapper that lets you take advantage of nifty Locker based mutex locking when in a CacheObject subclass.
2013-07-18	Fixed caching changed issue. The cache now marks objects as unchanged for you	Mike Buland
	after they are saved. It needs some more testing, but the theory is sound.
2013-07-03	Modified the Bu::CacheBase API, what was erase is eraseNow, and erase is about	Mike Buland
	to be re-engineered to actually do a lazy erase like removing an iNode in a posix filesystem. While the file remains open it exists, but the references visible to the user on disk are gone.
2013-04-08	Minor tweaks to the cache object base class. The per-object mutex is actually	Mike Buland
	in the CacheEntry class, not the CacheObject, so you can't lock it until you have an entry. This isn't a big deal unless your objects aren't actually part of a cache yet. I changed it so that lock/unlock have no effect if you haven't joined to a cache yet, probably not ideal, I'll think about moving that mutex. I also fixed it so you can lock/unlock even when const.
2013-03-25	Corrected a pure virtual call issue while destroying caches.	Mike Buland

2013-03-21	The Bu::MyriadCache now ensures that it saves the myriad structure after	Mike Buland
	saving an entry or syncing.
2013-03-18	Cache object handles changed() events when no cache has been set cleanly now.	Mike Buland

2013-03-18	Added the has function to the new cache system. If the object identified by	Mike Buland
	key is loaded then the query doesn't even get to the superclass.
2013-03-18	Corrected compliation issue in the new cache with older GCC versions.	Mike Buland

2013-03-17	The new cache system has been broken out into it's individual headers, and is	Mike Buland
	now ready for actual use.
2013-03-17	The new cache system is tested and ready, it just needs to be put in it's place.	Mike Buland
	The old cache system will be going away now, so if you need it for anything, grab a version before this commit. Oh, also, happy 1,000th commit!
2013-03-13	Added bind/unbind to the Cache system. Fixed typo in docs of heap.	Mike Buland

2013-03-13	The new caching system is almost there. It's more elaborate internally, and	Mike Buland
	it works very, very differently, but the interface is proving much easier to use and it should be much faster, not to mention thread-safe.
2013-03-12	Bu::Uuid now supports being formatted, it uses the standard toString() method.	Mike Buland
	The new cache is really coming along now.
2013-03-12	Mostly planning changes, nothing real functional but I want to commit and change	Mike Buland
	computers.
2013-03-03	Adding the Bu::DualFilter which could work out really well, it's going in for	Mike Buland
	testing now. The idea is that it makes it easy to use a bi-directional stream like a tcpstream that requires a seperate filter instance for each read and write side.
2013-02-27	Added a unit test for Bu::SynchroHash. It's just a tweaked copy of the test	Mike Buland
	for Bu::Hash, which tests the basics alright, but not the synchro part. I'm still trying to figure out a good test for that.
2013-02-26	Added auto-lock classes to the Bu::ReadWriteMutex, I think I like that type of	Mike Buland
	encapsulation, at least for the read/write guy. Also started work on a thread-safe wrapper for the standard hash. There is a lot of functionality we just have to leave out in this, it's just too dangerous in a thread-safe class.
2013-02-25	Really minor addition to the new cache system. I think I will split it into	Mike Buland
	two classes, one for the store, one for the cache itself. The index will have to go with the store, which I find a little odd, but it'll...probably work out.
2013-02-25	More things in the default.bld just include pthreads now. It just makes sense.	Mike Buland

2013-02-23	Just made all tests include libpthread, it makes sense these days.	Mike Buland
	Creating an experimental new cache system that's controlled primarily with a subclass. This should cut down significantly on the amount of code needed to use the cache. The new one also features a required (for now) base class for objects that use the cache. This simplifies so many different things.
