        * UnmanagedMemoryStream.cs: Move the CLS attribute to the methods
        that are unsafe.

        * Path.cs (Combine):e Fix implementation to follow docs (we need
        to reset the path if any of the combined paths is rooted), and add a
        couple of overloads;

        into two methods (returning the path, fullpath or only the 
        filename). Default Moonlight to anonymous (not only for isolated
        storage) unless the coreclr is disable (e.g. smcs)

        implements FileInfo.Replace.

2009-04-25  Miguel de Icaza  <miguel@novell.com>

        * StreamReader.cs (DataAvailable): New internal function to work
        around the fact that StreamReaders are now blocking on Peek(), and
        that our own Console.TermInfoDriver used Peek() as a way of
        probing if there was data on a stream before to avoid blocking. o

2009-04-24 Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@novell.com>

        * StreamReader.cs: if Peek() needs to block, do it.
        Fixes bug #496905.

2008-12-20  Miguel de Icaza  <miguel@novell.com>

        * FileStream.cs: Found while debugging webcompare, we should add
        Obsoletes to the FileStream constructors that take IntPtrs.

2008-11-27  Sebastien Pouliot  <sebastien@ximian.com>

        * FileInfo.cs: Change ToString (in 2.1) not to return the full path
        of the filename (since it's not SecurityCritical).

2008-11-09  William Holmes  <billholmes54@gmail.com>

        * TextReader.cs : Adding the NullTextReader as a private class to
          the TestReader class for the Null field of the TestReader.

2008-08-22  Sebastien Pouliot  <sebastien@ximian.com>

        * FileStream.cs, MonoIO.cs: For Silverlight 2.0 (NET_2_1) we always
        throw IsolatedStorageException instead of FileNotFoundException and
        DirectoryNotFoundException.

2008-08-21  Sebastien Pouliot  <sebastien@ximian.com>

        * FileStream.cs: Adjust exception being thrown for Silverlight 2.0.
        * FileSystemInfo.cs: In Silverlight 2 this type does not inherit from

        MarshalByRefObject.
        * TextReader.cs: In Silverlight 2 this type does not inherit from

        path, as these checks are already done in FileStream .ctor. Removed
        parameter name from ArgumentException to match MS.

2008-07-28  Marek Safar <marek.safar@gmail.com>

        * File.cs: Delay DateTime .cctor invocation.

2008-07-04  Andreas Nahr <ClassDevelopment@A-SoftTech.com>

        contains invalid path characters.

2008-05-29  Robert Jordan  <robertj@gmx.net>

        * Path.cs (InsecureGetFullPath): Call CanonicalizePath for
        UNC paths as well.
        * Path.cs (GetServerAndShare): New helper method.
        * Path.cs (SameRoot, CanonicalizePath): Add UNC support.

2008-05-14  Andreas Nahr <ClassDevelopment@A-SoftTech.com>

        * DriveInfo.cs: Fix compiler warning

2008-05-07  Sebastien Pouliot  <sebastien@ximian.com>

        used are now inlined into Path.cs
        * CheckPermission.cs: Removed. Lots of unused code.
        * Path.cs: Inlined two checks.
        [Found using Gendarme]

2008-04-18  Sebastien Pouliot  <sebastien@ximian.com>

        * Path.cs: Change PathSeparatorChars from private to internal since
        it's needed for IsolatedStorage.

2008-04-17  Gert Driesen  <drieseng@users.sourceforge.net>

        * DirectoryInfo.cs: Added new internal ctor, which takes a bool that
        indicates whether the original path should only container the last
        part of the directory. Moved logic for determining the Name and
        Parent to Initialize method, to allow it to be re-used on
        deserialization. Renamed argument names to fix corcompare issues.
        Added missing argument checks.
        * Directory.cs (CreateDirectoriesInternal): Use internal ctor for
        DirectoryInfo to ensure OriginalPath only contains last part of
        the directory. 
        * File.cs: Removed redundant checks from Create. On 2.0 profile, pass
        FileOptions to FileStream. Removed redundant directory check from
        Delete and modified exceptions to more closely match MS.
        * FileInfo.cs: Added argument check to ctor to match MS. Added missing
        deserialization ctor. Modified argument checks in MoveTo, and removed
        redundant checks. Added missing argument checks in CopyTo. Code
        formatting.
        * FileSystemInfo.cs: Modified argument checks in CheckPath to more
        closely match MS.
        * MonoIO.cs: Added msg that does not disclose filename for 
        ERROR_FILE_EXISTS. 
        * Path.cs: Use String.Length instead of comparing with String.Empty.
        Removed exceptions argument names to match MS.

2008-04-16  Gert Driesen  <drieseng@users.sourceforge.net>

        * File.cs: Changed argument names and thrown exception to better match
        .NET. Use String.Length instead of comparison with empty string.
        * DirectoryInfo.cs: Added missing deserialization ctor.

2008-04-04  Dick Porter  <dick@ximian.com>

        * File.cs: Pretty up the file share exception with the path name.

2008-03-28  Sebastien Pouliot  <sebastien@ximian.com>

        * Directory.cs: Exception differs when deleting a directory if it 
        does not exists or if a file of the same name exists. Also don't 
        include path in exception if Delete fails.

2008-03-20  Marek Safar  <marek.safar@gmail.com>

        * Path.cs (Combine): Call ToString to optimize concatenation.

2008-03-02  Gert Driesen  <drieseng@users.sourceforge.net>

        * DriveInfo.cs: Removed debug code.

2008-02-15  Miguel de Icaza  <miguel@novell.com>

        * UnmanagedMemoryStream.cs: Implement few missing pieces.

2008-02-10  Zoltan Varga  <vargaz@gmail.com>

        * UnexceptionalStreamReader.cs (Read): Optimize this to avoid making a number of
        calls + creation of a string for each character read.

2008-02-03  Sebastien Pouliot  <sebastien@ximian.com>

        * MemoryStream.cs: Remove unused code found by Gendarme.

2008-01-16  Zoltan Varga  <vargaz@gmail.com>

        * BinaryReader.cs: Fix ReadCharBytes method to avoid non-linear behavior. 
        Fixes #352184.

2007-12-28  Zoltan Varga  <vargaz@gmail.com>

        * MemoryStream.cs: Fix crash if internalBuffer is null. Avoid calling
        unsafe icalls. Fixes #350860.

2007-11-21  Atsushi Enomoto  <atsushi@ximian.com>

        * FileStream.cs : Close() does not exist in 2.0 (Stream does).
          Move GC.SuppressFinalize() to Dispose(true).

2007-11-12  Juraj Skripsky  <js@hotfeet.ch>

        * Path.cs (GetRandomFileName): Return filenames containing only
        characters from the range [a..z0..9] as MS.NET does. 

2007-11-02  Atsushi Enomoto  <atsushi@ximian.com>

        * StreamReader.cs : Encoding.GetMaxCharCount() does not always return
          the maximum max char count for Decoder.GetChars() since it might
          contain pending buffer by flush. Fixed bug #338370.

2007-11-01  Miguel de Icaza  <miguel@novell.com>

        * Path.cs (GetDirectoryName): The paths returned from this routine
        should be canonical, not just a substring.   In addition to fixing
        this, it also fixes #324742.

2007-10-26  Atsushi Enomoto  <atsushi@ximian.com>

        * BinaryReader.cs, BinaryWriter.cs : use unsafe encoding that has ""
          for replacement fallback. Binary serialization regression is fixed.

2007-09-06  Atsushi Enomoto  <atsushi@ximian.com>

        * Stream.cs, BufferedStream.cs, MemoryStream.cs: in 2.0 override
          Dispose(bool) rather than Close().
          Stream.Dispose() is virtual in 2.0.

2007-08-24  Gert Driesen  <drieseng@users.sourceforge.net>

        * BinaryReader.cs: Fixed line endings.
        * FileStream.cs: Rename name argument to path. Spaces to tabs.

2007-08-20  William Holmes  <billholmes54@gmail.com>

        *File.cs:  Add implementation for IO.File.Replace methods.
        *MonoIO.cs: Declared an internal call for ReplaceFile

        Code is contributed under MIT/X11 license.

2007-07-31  Dick Porter  <dick@ximian.com>

        * MonoIO.cs: Fix formatting of 'access denied' exception when the
        path info isn't known.  Fixes bug 82141.

2007-07-08  Gert Driesen  <drieseng@users.sourceforge.net>

        * Directory.cs: Renamed Move arguments to match MS. Allow Move to be
        used to move files, patch by Robert Jordan. Fixes bug #81912. Spaces
        to tabs.

2007-06-21  Dick Porter  <dick@ximian.com>

        * FileStream.cs: Fix FileShare test, fixing better bug 79250.

2007-05-28  Atsushi Enomoto  <atsushi@ximian.com>

        * UnmanagedMemoryStream.cs : added Closed event for sys.Resources use.
        * IntPtrStream.cs : added internal get_BaseAddress(), for the same.

2007-05-25  Gert Driesen  <drieseng@users.sourceforge.net>

        * UnmanagedMemoryStream.cs: In Read and ReadByte, use Marshal.ReadByte
        to read bytes as this allows us to start reading from the current
        position. In Read, return 0 when reading beyond the end of the stream
        and only read bytes until the end of the stream (not capacity).
        In ReadByte, return -1 when reading beyond the end of the stream.
        In SetLength: changed argument validation (and reported exceptions) to
        match MS, removed duplicate access check and changed the current
        position if length is less than position. In Write: throw
        NotSupportedException when attempting to write beyond capacity, use
        Marshal.WriteByte since that allows us to start writing from the
        current position. Adjust length when position moves beyond length
        in both Write and WriteByte. Allow position to be moved beyond
        capacity of stream. Fixed position using Seek (=+ typo). Changed
        CanRead to ignore current position. Allow Position to be used to move
        beyond capacity of stream.

2007-05-24  Gert Driesen  <drieseng@users.sourceforge.net>

        * UnmanagedMemoryStream.cs: Changed argument names and exceptions 
        (msg, params) to match MS. Verify access argument in ctor. 

2007-05-23  Atsushi Enomoto  <atsushi@ximian.com>

        * UnmanagedMemoryStream.cs : couple of bugfixes. in Read(), don't
          return buffer beyond the requested length. Fixed .ctor() for wrong
          capacity initialization.

2007-05-12  Jonathan Chambers  <joncham@gmail.com>

        * FileStream.cs: Implement SafeHandle constructors.

2007-05-01  Dick Porter  <dick@ximian.com>

        * File.cs:
        * Stream.cs: Missed a few 2.0 methods

2007-04-30  Dick Porter  <dick@ximian.com>

        * Directory.cs: 
        * FileShare.cs: 
        * DirectoryNotFoundException.cs: 
        * SeekOrigin.cs: 
        * FileAttributes.cs: 
        * IOException.cs: 
        * MemoryStream.cs: 
        * FileMode.cs: 
        * BinaryWriter.cs: 
        * TextWriter.cs: 
        * File.cs: 
        * BinaryReader.cs: 
        * TextReader.cs: 
        * UnmanagedMemoryStream.cs: 
        * StringWriter.cs: 
        * FileAccess.cs: 
        * FileLoadException.cs: 
        * BufferedStream.cs: 
        * Stream.cs: 
        * FileInfo.cs: 
        * FileStream.cs:
        * StringReader.cs: 
        * StreamWriter.cs: 
        * EndOfStreamException.cs: 
        * DriveInfo.cs: 
        * StreamReader.cs: 
        * PathTooLongException.cs: 
        * DriveType.cs: 
        * FileNotFoundException.cs: 2.0 profile updates

2007-04-21  Alp Toker  <alp@atoker.com>

        * FileStream.cs: Respect request for buffering in all cases.

        Gonzalo added code in r42667 that disables buffering even when it is
        requested, in the case that ftype != MonoFileType.Disk. This was
        killing performance for users who do Console.OpenStandardOutput(1024)
        but were ending up with a non-buffered FileStream.

        The new behaviour appears correct but we should watch for any
        regressions.

2007-04-05  Dick Porter  <dick@ximian.com>

        * Directory.cs: Pass combined path and pattern to
        MonoIO.GetFileSystemEntries()

2007-04-03  Alp Toker  <alp@atoker.com>

        * UnmanagedMemoryStream.cs: Should not have a public Dispose().
        This behaviour is already provided by the base class.

2007-04-03  Alp Toker  <alp@atoker.com>

        * Stream.cs: CreateWaitHandle() obsolete in 2.0.

2007-03-18  Alp Toker  <alp@atoker.com>

        * UnmanagedMemoryStream.cs:
        * Directory.cs: Exception message typo fixes.

2007-03-11  Zoltan Varga  <vargaz@gmail.com>

        * UnmanagedMemoryStream.cs: Fix a warning.

2007-03-05  Miguel de Icaza  <miguel@novell.com>

        * Path.cs: Manually call FileStream and pass the new internal
        FileOptions.1 flag that means "This is a temporary file, use 600
        permissions". 

        * FileOptions.cs: Document the new private enum value.

2007-02-22  Dick Porter  <dick@ximian.com>

        * MonoIOError.cs: 
        * MonoIO.cs: Handle ERROR_CANNOT_MAKE.

2007-02-19      Eyal Alaluf <eyala@mainsoft.com>

        docs, UnauthorizedAccessException is thrown if the underlying
        platform does not support it and *also* if there are no

        PlatformNotSupportedException that only states that it needs Win2k
        or newer).

        is null. On 2.0 profile, use file/assembly load failure message when
        no message is set and a filename was specified. On 1.0 profile,
        always use file/assembly load failure message when no message is set
        (regardless of whether a filename was specified or not). Made some
        cosmetic changes to ToString to have it match MS.

        * MonoIO.cs: Update MonoIO.Open signature to drop the async
        argument and take FileOptions instead.

        * BinaryReader.cs (ReadByte): Check for exceptions here.

2004-12-06  Atsushi Enomoto  <atsushi@ximian.com>

        * TextWriter.cs : create CoreNewLine in another .ctor().

2004-12-05  Ben Maurer  <bmaurer@ximian.com>

        * TextWriter.cs (WriteLine): Use CoreNewLine so that this does
        not make a string out of the array every time it is called.

        Thanks to Atsushi for the idea.

2004-12-04  Ben Maurer  <bmaurer@ximian.com>

        * DirectoryInfo.cs (CreateSubDirectory): Check the input here.
        
        * FileSystemInfo.cs (CheckPath): Empty paths are invalid.

2004-11-19  Dick Porter  <dick@ximian.com>

        * MonoIOError.cs: 
        * MonoIO.cs: Add a proper message for sharing violation

2004-11-01  Ben Maurer  <bmaurer@ximian.com>

        * MonoIOError.cs: All of these fields just take up room in corlib,
        bloating things up. To make it worse, we need to malloc data at
        runtime about them. Since most are not used, am commenting them
        out

2004-09-19  Dick Porter  <dick@ximian.com>

        * UnexceptionalStreamWriter.cs: 
        * UnexceptionalStreamReader.cs: Wrappers around StreamWriter and
        StreamReader that catch IOException.  Used by System.Console so
        that graphical applications dont get IO errors when their
        stdin/out/err vanishes (ie when they spew debug output.)

2004-09-12 Ben Maurer  <bmaurer@ximian.com>

        * BinaryReader.cs: Use ReadByte when possible. Gives a tad
        of perf, and fixes a bug reported on mono-patches-list

2004-09-08  Miguel de Icaza  <miguel@ximian.com>

        * File.cs: Added Gettextification, provide a better error message
        for #62112

2004-09-08  Marek Safar  <marek.safar@seznam.cz>

        * Directory.cs,
        * File.cs: Class is static for NET_2_0.

2004-09-06 Ben Maurer  <bmaurer@users.sourceforge.net>

        * MemoryStream.cs (SetLength): Use Array.Clear here

2004-09-05 Ben Maurer  <bmaurer@users.sourceforge.net>

        * Path.cs (Combine): Array.IndexOf is slow (because of the
        special cases it must handle). So, rather than doing IndexOf
        just check each type of seperator.

2004-09-05 Ben Maurer  <bmaurer@users.sourceforge.net>

        * StringReader.cs (StreamReader): remove sourceChars and disposed
        variables
        (Read): Copy directly from the string, rather than a char []
        (Dispose, CheckObjectDisposedException): the flag for being
        disposed is now source == null.

2004-09-04 Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>

        * Stream.cs: Close() does not call Flush(). Fixes bug #65340.

2004-08-26 Ben Maurer  <bmaurer@users.sourceforge.net>

        * StreamWriter.cs: avoid String.ToCharArray for perf.

2004-08-18  Dick Porter  <dick@ximian.com>

        * StreamWriter.cs: Flush the buffer if AutoFlush is set to true.
        Fixes bug 63063, patch by Laurent Debacker (debackerl@yahoo.com).

2004-08-13  Dick Porter  <dick@ximian.com>

        * StreamWriter.cs: Allow FileShare.Read access to the underlying
        FileStream, to be compatible with MS.  Fixes bug 62152.

2004-07-06  Dick Porter  <dick@ximian.com>

        * MonoIO.cs: Add ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER to the exception list.
        Don't blow away the SetFileTime() error before the caller gets to
        see it.  Part of the bug fix to 60970.

2004-07-05  Dick Porter  <dick@ximian.com>

        * CheckPermission.cs:
        * File.cs:
        * FileInfo.cs:
        * MonoIO.cs:
        * FileStream.cs: Give the filename when throwing
        FileNotFoundException.  Fixes bug 61120, based on patch from
        Carlos Alberto Cesario <carloscesario@gmail.com>.

2004-07-05  Dick Porter  <dick@ximian.com>

        * File.cs: File.Move() should check that the destination doesn't
        already exist.  Fixes bug 60915, patch based on one from Carlos
        Alberto Cesario <carloscesario@gmail.com>.

2004-06-24 Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>

        * Directory.cs: implemented GetLogicalDrives.

2004-06-24  Lluis Sanchez Gual  <lluis@novell.com>

        * StreamReader.cs: In DiscardBufferedData(), reset the mayBlock flag.

2004-06-21  Atsushi Enomoto  <atsushi@ximian.com>

        * FileStream.cs :
          .ctor() should block write access when created with FileAccess.Write.

2004-06-21  Atsushi Enomoto  <atsushi@ximian.com>

        * FileStream.cs : Check buffer size before creating file.
        * StreamReader.cs : Check encoding!=null before creating file.
        * File.cs,
          MonoIO.cs : Convert DateTime to FileTime after checking
          file IO sharing violation (it just fixes the type of exception).

2004-06-15  Gert Driesen <drieseng@users.sourceforge.net>

        * MemoryStream.cs: added TODO for serialization

        59354.

2004-06-09  Duncan Mak  <duncan@ximian.com>

        * BufferedStream.cs (SetLength): Add checks and throw the
        appropriate Exceptions here instead.

        * FileStream.cs (SetLength): Revert part of my last patch, we're
        throwing ObjectDisposedException instead of IOException again.

2004-06-09  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>

        * FileStream.cs: re-enabled ignoring broken pipe errors when reading.
        Fixes bug #59639.

2004-06-08  Duncan Mak  <duncan@ximian.com>

        * Directory.cs (IsRootDirectory): New helper method for
        determining if a path is the root directory. Handles both Unix as
        well as Windows.
        (GetParent): Use IsRootDirectory for the check.

2004-06-08  Duncan Mak  <duncan@ximian.com>

        * File.cs: Fix line endings, took out ^Ms.

        * Directory.cs (GetParent): Return null if the specified path is
        the root directory.

        * StreamReader.cs (StreamReader):
        (Initialize): Add a check that buffer_size must not be less than
        or equal to zero.

2004-06-07  Duncan Mak  <duncan@ximian.com>

        * FileStream.cs (SetLength): The other exceptions have precendence
        over ObjectDisposedException, which is not one of the exceptions
        listed in the documentation). Also, instead of throwing an
        ObjectDisposedException, throw an IOException.

2004-06-03  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>

        * BufferedStream.cs: fixed typo that prevented Read() from working.
        This went out with beta 2. Closes bug #59534.

2004-05-31  Atsushi Enomoto  <atsushi@ximian.com>

        * Directory.cs, File.cs : Fixed Exists() that raised 
          DirectoryNotFoundException. Quick fix for bug #59354.

2004-05-30  Sebastien Pouliot  <sebastien@ximian.com>

        * BinaryReader.cs: Added missing disposed check for most methods. 
        Reordered some exceptions to match MS implementation. 
        * BufferedStream.cs: Fixed Seek logic (check for CanSeek and dispose).
        SetLength must also reset Position and check for dispose.
        * FileStream.cs: Added missing check for invalid SeekOrigin. Added
        missing validations.

2004-05-27  Dick Porter  <dick@ximian.com>

        * FileSystemInfo.cs: Take out the error checking in Refresh(), it
        broke other stuff
        
2004-05-27  Dick Porter  <dick@ximian.com>

        * MonoIO.cs: Define icalls for Lock() and Unlock()

        * Directory.cs: Improve IO error reporting

2004-05-27  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>

        * FileStream.cs: delay seeking to the end when FileMode.Append is
        specified until after buffer initialization. Fixes bug #59151.

2004-05-26  Sebastien Pouliot  <sebastien@ximian.com>

          This fixes bug #58804.

2004-05-25  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>

        * Directory.cs: ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND in FindFirstFile means there are

        condition to allow zeroization of existing data when we shrink the 
        stream.
        * StreamReader.cs: Add checks for null encoding. Fixed possible integer
        overflow and ArgumentNullException in Read.
        * StreamWriter.cs: Add dispose check to Write(char) and Write(char[]),
        AutoFlush. Fixed possible integer overflow in Write(char[],int,int).
        * StringWriter.cs: Fixed possible integer overflow in Write. Changed
        spaces for tabs.

2004-05-22  Duncan Mak  <duncan@ximian.com>

        * Directory.cs: Reformat the whole file to use Unix line endings
        for consistency.
        (GetFileSystemEntries): If pattern is String.Empty, always
        return an empty string array. Throw the ArgumentException if path
        is an empty string (determined using the new helper method)
        (IsEmptyString): Returns true on an empty string or a string with
        only whitespace characters.

2004-05-14  Marek Safar  <marek.safar@seznam.cz>

        * TextWriter.cs: Removed useless [CLSCompliant (false)]

2004-05-06  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>

        * Directory.cs: use the real wildcard for file names as it is supported
        now in io-layer. SearhPattern is not needed now.

2004-04-30 Ben Maurer  <bmaurer@users.sourceforge.net>

        * BinaryWriter.cs, Stream.cs: ensure we have beforefieldinit.

2004-04-29 Ben Maurer  <bmaurer@users.sourceforge.net>

        * FileSystemInfo.cs: Implemented ISerializable, corrected COM 
        visibility of UTC properties

2004-04-01  Lluis Sanchez Gual  <lluis@ximian.com>

        * BufferedStream.cs: On Position change, do not reset the buffer if the
        new position is in the limits of the buffer. This fixes #49403.

2003-04-03  Atsushi Enomoto <atsushi@ximian.com>

        * Path.cs : ChangeExtension() does not remove dot(.) when extension is
          an empty string.

2004-04-01  Lluis Sanchez Gual  <lluis@ximian.com>

        * FileSystemInfo.cs: Added InternalRefresh, a virtual method that derived
          classes can override to perform class specific refreshing.
        * FileInfo.cs: Refresh existence flag when Refresh is called.
        * TextWriter.cs: Applied patch by Benjamin Jemlich for bug #52512.
          The method Write(char) should do nothing by default.

        * BinaryReader.cs: don't modify the underlying stream in Peek(). Fixes
        bug #51741. Patch by Nick Vaughan.

2004-03-25  Lluis Sanchez Gual  <lluis@ximian.com>

        * FileStream.cs: ReadByte(): when buffering is disabled, read the byte
        with a direct call to ReadData. In InitBuffer(), if buffering is
        disabled, create a buffer of one byte, to be used in ReadByte.  This
        fixes bug #52361.

2004-03-25  Lluis Sanchez Gual  <lluis@ximian.com>

        * Path.cs: In GetDirectoryName, fixed check for volumeSeparator. This

        * File.cs: In Move, throw IOException instead of ArgumentException if 
          destination is a directory.
        * MonoIO.cs: In ExistsDirectory, return ERROR_PATH_NOT_FOUND instead of

        OS native libraries if available.

        * FileStreamAsyncResult.cs: IAsyncResult for asynch. I/O.

        * MonoIO.cs: added BeginRead/Write, GetSupportsAsync. Open has now a
        new parameter to tell ifthe file will be used for asynch operations.

        * Stream.cs: BeginRead/Write do not use delegates. They just are
        actually synchronous.

        * StreamAsyncResult.cs: IAsyncResult for Stream.

2004-03-04  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>

        * Directory.cs: check if the error returned in Exists is different
        from 'path not found' and throw the appropiate exception in that case.

2004-02-19  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>

        * FileStream.cs: (.ctor) Path.DirectoryName can be empty and make
        Path.GetFullPath crash. Fixed it.

        * MonoIO.cs: fixed typo.

2004-02-13  Jackson Harper  <jackson@ximian.com>

        * FileStream.cs: Throw some more exceptions for invalid
        params. Fixes some unit test failures.
        * BufferedStream.cs: If the stream is closed (can't read from it
        or write to it) throw an ObjectDisposedException.

        the stream is closed.

2004-01-18 Ben Maurer  <bmaurer@users.sourceforge.net>

        * FileStream.cs: Locking from bug #32344 removed. This is not
        necessary because the correct fix was actually in the console.
        This fixes bug #53026. Miguel de Icaza reviewed/approved this
        patch.

2004-01-14  Zoltan Varga  <vargaz@freemail.hu>

        * FileStream.cs (.ctor): Avoid allocating a large buffer when reading
        from small files.

2004-01-10  Atsushi Enomoto <atsushi@ximian.com>

        * Path.cs : GetDirectoryName ("c:\readme.txt") should return "c:\"
          instead of "c:" . This fixed bug #52735.

2004-01-04  Nick Drochak <ndrochak@gol.com>

        * Path.cs: Remove defined but unused variable, and also got rid of
        some unreachable code.  Eliminates some build warnings.

2003-12-28 Ben Maurer  <bmaurer@users.sourceforge.net>

        * BinaryWriter.cs: use one encoding buffer for writing
        strings rather than allocting one/string. HUGE perf
        boost when writing many strings.

2003-12-25  Atsushi Enomoto <atsushi@ximian.com>

        * Path.cs : Fixed GetFullPath() (and CanonicalizePath()), 
          HasExtension(), GetPathRoot() and IsPathRooted() to fit with tests.

2003-12-22  Bernie Solomon  <bernard@ugsolutions.com>

        * FileStream.cs: (.ctor) do not set handle
        in object until after it is validated via
        GetFileType so finalizer doesn't see bad handles and
        initialize this.handle to InvalidHandle

2003-12-19  Bernie Solomon  <bernard@ugsolutions.com>

        * MonoIO.cs: SetFileTime() Failed Open returns InvalidHandle
        not Zero

2003-12-17  Atsushi Enomoto <atsushi@ximian.com>

        * Directory.cs : SetCurrentDirectory() should raise errors for
          some kind of arguments.

2003-12-12  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>

        * Path.cs: GetTempPath () ends with DirectorySeparatorChar. Fixes bug
        #52056.

2003-12-06  Ravindra  <rkumar@novell.com>
        *MonoIO.cs: Added a new exception case. It is thrown 
        when a directory creation is attempted with a name that
        is already used by an existing file.

2003-11-28  Dick Porter  <dick@ximian.com>

        * Path.cs: Use the char form of LastIndexOf, so that the
        comparison is done with the Invariant culture.

2003-11-24  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>

2003-11-15  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>

        * StringReader.cs: fixed ReadLine for some cases where there are mixed
        '\r' and '\n'. Closes bug #51020.

2003-11-14 Ben Maurer  <bmaurer@users.sourceforge.net>

        * MemoryStream.cs (.ctor): We need to check if buffer is null
        before we get the Length of it.

2003-10-20  Miguel de Icaza  <miguel@ximian.com>

        * FileStream.cs public FileStream (string name, FileMode mode)
        constructor: If we pass FileMode.Append, we can not pass
        FileAccess.ReadWrite.  This fixes bug 44959

2003-09-26  Miguel de Icaza  <miguel@ximian.com>

        * BufferedStream.cs (Write): Use CanWrite in Write.  Patch from
        Francisco Figueiredo Jr.

        * BufferedStream.cs, FileStream.cs, MemoryStream.cs, Stream.cs:
          Added [In,Out] attributes to Read method.

2003-08-05  Martin Baulig  <martin@ximian.com>

        * StreamReader.cs (DiscardBufferedData): Do the same like on the
        ms runtime: just discard the buffered data, but don't modify the
        BaseStream.Position.

2003-08-04  Martin Baulig  <martin@ximian.com>

        * StreamReader.cs (DiscardBufferedData): Implemented.

2003-07-29  Miguel de Icaza  <miguel@ximian.com>

        code to use a byte* instead of an IntPtr to reduce the number of
        casts used. 

        (Read): Use Marshal.Copy instead of the now
        deprecated MemCopy.

        (IntPtrStream): New stream implementation, it maps to a region in
        memory.

2003-07-23  Duncan Mak  <duncan@ximian.com>

        * StreamReader.cs (Initialize): This method is not exposed in the
        API, mark as internal.

2003-06-30  Zoltan Varga  <vargaz@freemail.hu>

        * FileStream.cs (Dispose): Flush the buffer even if we don't own the
        handle.
        * FileStream.cs: Add a new constructor parameter to turn off buffering.
        This is used by the Console.OpenStandard...() methods. Also fix
        argument checking in InitBuffer(), so a zero buffer size is also 
        rejected.

2003-06-27  Dietmar Maurer  <dietmar@ximian.com>

        * Stream.cs: use async.delegate invoke 

2003-06-18  Nick Drochak <ndrochak@gol.com>

        * FileSystemInfo.cs: Refresh cache when changeing file times.

2003-06-11  Zoltan Varga  <vargaz@freemail.hu>

        * FileStream.cs: Fix errors in previous checkins:
        (Write): Only take the shortcut route if the data is longer than the
        buffer length.
        (Write): Flush the buffer before writing out the new data
        (Write): Flush the buffer after writing out a segment since otherwise
        we will go into an infinite loop.
        (FlushBuffer): Remove my last change since it was clearly wrong.
        (Seek): Run FlushBuffer () after the in-buffer seek optimization.
        (Seek): Only use the in-buffer optimization if the buffer is not
        empty.
        (Length): Call FlushBuffer () since buffer data might change the size
        of the stream.

2003-06-09  Ville Palo <vi64pa@kolumbus.fi>

        * FileStream.cs:
        - removed unusefull bugfix (DirectoryNotFoundException)
        - Flush before seek.
        
2003-06-09  Ville Palo <vi64pa@kolumbus.fi>

        * FileStream.cs: Check buffer size before append/read -exceptios

2003-05-21  Ben Maurer  <bmaurer@users.sourceforge.net>

        * StringWriter.cs: Fixed bug #43431: "StringWriter
        .ctor(CultureInfo) does not create a new StringBuilder ()"

2003-05-11  Zoltan Varga  <vargaz@freemail.hu>

        * FileStream.cs (FlushBuffer): After a flush, the buffer is
        advanced by buf_offset bytes, not buf_length bytes.

2003-05-16  Dick Porter  <dick@ximian.com>

        work with paths such as "/home/xxx/.".

2003-05-08  Ben Maurer <bmaurer@users.sourceforge.net>
        * Path.cs 
        (CanonicalizePath) Fixed bug #42631, which duplicated the
        root part of the path under Windows.

2003-05-08  Ville Palo <vi64pa@kolumbus.fi>

        * FileSystemInfo.cs: Added 1.1 properties LastAccessTimeUtc, 
        LastWriteTimeUtc and CreationTimeUtc

        (CanonicalizePath) Added optimizations per Miguel's requests.

2003-05-06  Ville Palo <vi64pa@kolumbus.fi>

        * BufferedStream.cs: 
          - Removed unusefull code.
          - Added ObjectDisposedException to Position
          - Dont flush if stream is allready closed.
          - Flush throws also ObjectDisposedException.
        * Directory.cs:
          - GetFileSystemEtries: ArgumentNullException if pattern is null
        * DirectoryInfo.cs: Fixed little MoveTo () bug.
        * FileInfo.cs:
          - Exists: If file does not exists when instance is created the
          value of the Exists property does not change even if file is created
          afterwards.
          - Delete: If path is a directory UnauthorizedException is thrown.
          - CopyTo: Now we can overwrite file if wanted.
        * Path.cs: 
          - GetFullPath: Now throws exception when path is "   ".
        
2003-05-04  Ben Maurer <bmaurer@users.sourceforge.net>
        * Directory.cs (GetLogicalDrives) Marked as MonoTODO
        because we need to implement the method on Windows.
        * Path.cs 
        (CanonicalizePath) Added new function to get
        rid of . and .. in path names. Need to figure out what
        other functions should call this.

2003-05-04  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>

        * StreamReader.cs:
        (.ctor): fixed parameters passed to FileNotFoundException.

2003-04-25  Dietmar Maurer  <dietmar@ximian.com>

        * BinaryReader.cs (Read): make sure the buffer is big enough (fix
        bug # 40702)

2003-04-24  Pedro Martinez Julia  <yoros@wanadoo.es>

        * BufferedStream.cs: Test if it's possible to seek in a Stream
        before access to Position. This prevents the exception thrown when
        the stream is System.Net.Sockets.NetworkStream.

2003-04-22  Ville Palo <vi64pa@kolumbus.fi>

        * Directory.cs: clean up --> performance improvment. Some exceptions

2003-04-20  Igor Nosyryev <nosyryev@attbi.com>

        * StringReader.cs (Read): Increment nextChar by charsToRead
        instead of count, that will guarantee that the next time the
        method is called, it will return 0 on an empty string rather than
        throwing an exception

2003-04-19  Ville Palo <vi64pa@kolumbus.fi>

        * BufferedStream.cs: Some fixes, mostly throwing exceptions.
        * MemoryStream.cs: Changed the order of exception checking

        * StringReader.cs: Throws exceptions if constructor parameter is null.
        
2003-04-11  Ville Palo <vi64pa@kolumbus.fi>

        * StringWriter.cs: Now throws an exception if StringBuilder parameter
        is null
        
2003-04-05  Miguel de Icaza  <miguel@ximian.com>

        ObjectDisposedException if the handle has been released.
        
        (Read): Throw exceptions specified in the spec.

        (Read, Write, ReadSegment, WriteSegment): There is no requirement for any
        instance methods of FileStream to be thread safe, so remove all
        the calls to lock on the object

2003-03-31  Nick Drochak <ndrochak@gol.com>

        * Path.cs (GetDirectoryName): Throw proper execption when path is empty.

2003-03-20  Lluis Sanchez Gual <lluis@ideary.com>

        * FileNotFoundException.cs: fixed serialization bug.

2003-03-18  Atsushi Enomoto <ginga@kit.hi-ho.ne.jp>

2003-03-07  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>

        the new MemoryStreamTest.

2003-03-05  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>

        * Directory.cs:
        (Move): don't use File.Move.

        Fixes bug #37755.

2003-03-02  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>

        * DirectoryInfo.cs: changed ToString to match MS behavior.
        * Path.cs: further fixes to GetDirectoryName to return null in the
        same cases that MS does.

        * File.cs: fix by Elan Feingold <efeingold@mn.rr.com> for
        SetCreationTime, SetLastAccessTime and SetLastWriteTime.

2003-02-26  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>

        * MemoryStream.cs:
        (ToArray): return only the portion of the buffer that contains
        data, not the whole buffer. (note: this makes XmlDocument.Load work
        again with documents that have a <?xml without the 'encoding'
        attribute, which makes gtk-sharp generator work again).

2003-02-25  Nick Drochak <ndrochak@gol.com>

        * File.cs (GetCreationTime): Throw proper execption when path is not
        found.

        32344

2003-02-18  Dick Porter  <dick@ximian.com>

        * FileStream.cs: Make FileMode.Append work, and check for Seeking
        back over old data (undocumented ms behaviour, throws an exception
        if you try).  Fixes bug 35975.

2003-02-17  Dick Porter  <dick@ximian.com>

        * FileStream.cs: Don't close the handle if the stream doesn't own
        it.  Patch from Raymond Penners (raymond@dotsphinx.com), bug
        35623.

2003-02-14  Zoltan Varga  <vargaz@freemail.hu>

        * MemoryStream.cs: create the buffer of the specified capacity.

2003-01-31  Patrik Torstensson

        * MemoryStream.cs: use BlockCopyInternal instead of Array.Copy, this is
        the same way as MS does it (performance improvement)

2003-01-29  Zoltan Varga  <vargaz@freemail.hu>

        * Directory.cs (GetFileSystemEntries): moved error handling to the
        correct instance of GetFileSystemEntries so all callers can enjoy it.

2003-01-28  Zoltan Varga  <vargaz@freemail.hu>

        * File.cs: add error handling to Get...Time methods.

        empty.

2003-01-23  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>

        * BufferedStream.cs: don't try to write a 0 sized array on when
        flushing the stream.
        
        Fixes bug #37045.

2003-01-18  Jonathan Pryor <jonpryor@vt.edu>

2002-12-16  Eduardo Garcia Cebollero <kiwnix@yahoo.es>
        
        * Directory.cs: Some fixes to SMB shares handling, and not compiling 
        with csc, mcs compiles it correctly (mcs bug 35652)

2002-12-14  Eduardo Garcia Cebollero <kiwnix@yahoo.es>

        * Directory.cs: Some fixes related to correct some exceptions thrown

2002-12-11  Eduardo Garcia Cebollero <kiwnix@yahoo.es>

        * Directory.cs: Some Exceptions added, fixed GetParent(),
        CreateDirectory() should work with unix, native windows and
        windows samba shares. Converted end-lines from dos-mode to unix-mode

2002-12-08  Eduardo Garcia Cebollero <kiwnix@yahoo.es>

        * Directory.cs: CreateDirectory  works now with Absolute paths
        too, not only with relative ones.

2002-12-07  Peter Williams  <peterw@ximian.com>

        * Directory.cs: Don't use the uninitialized pathsumm here.
        Don't try and create "" if we're using an absolute path.

2002-12-07  Eduardo Garcia Cebollero <kiwnix@yahoo.es>

        * Directory.cs: Now the creation of a new directory works recursively
        it will make parents as needed.

2002-11-21  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>

        * BufferedStream.cs: applied patch from <carlosga@telefonica.net> that
        fixes Flush ().

Tue Nov 19 13:01:22 CET 2002 Paolo Molaro <lupus@ximian.com>

        * StreamWriter.cs: Changed all Encoding.UTF8 to Encoding.UTF8Unmarked.

2002-10-31  Dick Porter  <dick@ximian.com>

        * FileStream.cs: Fix buffering properly this time.  Also kludge
        around broken pipe errors, treating them as EOF instead of
        throwing an IO exception.

        * MonoIO.cs: Return the error status in a parameter, as the
        GetLastError() value has long since been blown away if we try and
        look it up in a subsequent internal call invocation.

        * FileSystemInfo.cs: 
        * FileInfo.cs: 
        * File.cs: 
        * Directory.cs: MonoIO methods now have an error parameter

2002-10-31  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>

        * TextReader.cs: implemented ReadBlock ().

2002-10-30  Miguel de Icaza  <miguel@ximian.com>

        * StreamWriter.cs: Ditto for Null stream.

        * BinaryReader.cs: Use Unmarked here too.

        * BinaryWriter.cs: Use the UTF8Unmarker encoding by default, this
        is what .NET does.

2002-10-23  Dick Porter  <dick@ximian.com>

        * FileStream.cs: Implemented CanSeek, and used it around all the
        calls to MonoIO.Seek.  Fixed buffering in Read() so that it
        doesn't block forever on short reads.

        * MonoFileType.cs: New enum for GetFileType
        
        * MonoIO.cs: Added GetFileType

2002-10-21  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>

        * StreamReader.cs: ReadLine now treats a \r not followed by a \n as a
        \n (this is what MS does).

2002-10-18  Dick Porter  <dick@ximian.com>

        * FileStream.cs: SeekOrigin.End still calculates the offset from
        the end of the file with positive values extending the length.
        Fixes bug 32471.

2002-10-06  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>

        * Path.cs: some cleanup. Thanks to Martin Aliger.

2002-10-03  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>

        * FileStream.cs: throw an exception if trying to open a directory.
        Thanks to Martin Aliger.

2002-10-02  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>

        * Path.cs: fixes bug #28046.

2002-09-27  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>

        * StreamReader.cs: give more information when wrong parameters passed.

2002-09-21  Miguel de Icaza  <miguel@ximian.com>

        * FileStream.cs: Do not call FSync on the file.

2002-09-16  Miguel de Icaza  <miguel@ximian.com>

        * TextWriter.cs (Null): The Null field should be an instance of a
        TextWriter class that does nothing, so it is an instance of the
        NullTextWriter class.

2002-09-16  Nick Drochak  <ndrochak@gol.com>

        * MemoryStream.cs (Close): Don't throw an exception if the stream
        is already closed.

2002-09-15  Miguel de Icaza  <miguel@ximian.com>

        * FileStream.cs (Dispose): Call FlushBuffer(), and not Flush, as
        Flush calls fsync().  

        The API docs show no explicit mention that Flush() should even do
        an fsync, I am thinking that we should drop that from the
        runtime. 

2002-09-09  Miguel de Icaza  <miguel@ximian.com>

        * StreamWriter.cs: When no encoding is provided, create an
        encoding without markers, this is what MS does.

2002-09-06  Miguel de Icaza  <miguel@ximian.com>

        * StreamReader.cs: Implement detection of byte marks and skipping
        of byte marks at the beginning of the stream.

        (ReadToEnd): Use buffered read instead of char-by-char
        processing. 

        Correct the default arguments for creating the StreamReader.

2002-08-29  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>

        * CheckArgument.cs: fixed check for empty string.
        * Path.cs: various fixes. It passes all the tests in new PathTest.

2002-08-29  Duncan Mak  <duncan@ximian.com>

        * StreamWriter.cs: Set DisposedAlready after calling flush. Fixes
        the build for gtk#.

2002-08-27  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>

        * BinaryReader.cs:
        * BinaryWriter.cs:
        * MemoryStream.cs:
        * StreamReader.cs:
        * StreamWriter.cs:
        * StringReader.cs:
        * StringWriter.cs:
        * TextWriter.cs: IDisposable fixes.

2002-08-24  Miguel de Icaza  <miguel@ximian.com>

        * StreamReader.cs: Removed TODOs, as the code seems to be
        complete. 

        * Path.cs (GetTempFileName): Make this routine atomic by not
        testing and then creating, but using the create call to ensure
        that we own the filename.

2002-08-23  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>

        * FileLoadException.cs: implemented ToString.

2002-08-21  Miguel de Icaza  <miguel@ximian.com>

        * Path.cs (GetDirectoryName): Fix for filenames with size = 1

        * File.cs: Removed all references that threw exceptions when the
        paths contains a colon, as this is a valid part of an identifier
        on Unix.

        Everywhere: The String.Empty return from GetDirectoryName means
        that there is no directory information about the path.

2002-08-20  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>

        * FileNotFoundException.cs: use Message and InnerException from base
        class. Changed Message and ToString ().

2002-08-19  Dick Porter  <dick@ximian.com>

        * BinaryWriter.cs: The length of a string is counted in bytes, not
        chars

2002-08-03  Jason Diamond  <jason@injektilo.org>

        * StringWriter.cs: Return UnicodeEncoding for Encoding property.

2002-08-03  Jason Diamond  <jason@injektilo.org>

        * StreamWriter.cs: Use GetByteCount() to get exact length instead
        of GetMaxByteCount when converting chars to bytes.

2002-07-31  Duncan Mak  <duncan@ximian.com>

        * StreamReader.cs: 
        (Dispose): Added and implmented.

        * StreamWriter.cs: 
        (Dispose): Fixed visibility.
        (Initialize): Fixed visibility, made internal.

        * BinaryReader.cs:
        (Dispose): Fixed visibility.

2002-07-28  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>

        * File.cs:
        (Create): allow file names without path.

        (.ctor): call MonoIO.GetException with the file name.

2002-07-02  Mike Kestner  <mkestner@speakeasy.net>

        * StreamReader.cs: Guard against ^\n lines as pointed out by Gonzalo.

2002-07-02  Mike Kestner  <mkestner@speakeasy.net>

        * StreamReader.cs: Revert the last Peek change and fix the ReadLine
        end of line detection code instead.

2002-07-02  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>

        * StreamReader.cs:
        (Peek): no need to have seek capabilitites. 

2002-06-17  Dietmar Maurer  <dietmar@ximian.com>

        * Path.cs (ChangeExtension): handle some special cases (fixes bug #25319)

        * File.cs (Delete): only call Directory.Exists() if DirName != ""

2002-06-12  Gonzalo Paniagua Javier <gonzalo@ximian.com>

2002-05-19  Lawrence Pit  <loz@cable.a2000.nl>

        * Stream.cs: NullStream.ReadByte now returns -1 instead of 0 to
        prevent endless loops.

2002-05-17  Dan Lewis  <dihlewis@yahoo.co.uk>

        * FileStream.cs: Enforce lower bound on buffer size.

2002-05-10  Nick Drochak  <ndrochak@gol.com>

        * StreamWriter.cs (Flush): Throw proper exception if internal stream
        has already been closed when we try to flush.

2002/05/10  Nick Drochak <ndrochak@gol.com>

        * FileNotFoundException.cs (ToString): Don't try to use the inner
        exception, because it might be null.  Use the message instead.

2002-05-09  Nick Drochak  <ndrochak@gol.com>

        * File.cs (Delete): Do not throw an exception if the file does not
        exist.

2002-05-08  Mike Gray     <mikeg@mikegray.org>

        * File.cs: According to ECMA spec and MS docs Copy(src, dest)
        should not overwrite dest by default.

2002-05-08  Nick Drochak  <ndrochak@gol.com>

        * StreamWriter.cs: Add paramter check to constructors and throw
        exceptions where appropriate.

        use new internal class since null cannot be passed to constructor 
        anymore. Also, fix a coule of small bugs.

2002-05-03  Nick Drochak  <ndrochak@gol.com>

        * MemoryStream.cs: Refrain from allocating array until the space is
        really needed. This fixes a bug in the Length property when the
        constructor without the byte array is used.

2002-05-01  Duncan Mak  <duncan@ximian.com>

        * DirectoryNotFoundException.cs (constructor): Added missing

2002-04-30  Sergey Chaban  <serge@wildwestsoftware.com>

        * BinaryReader.cs: Allocate buffer before its first use.
        Handle end of stream properly. Methods to read native types
        (ReadInt* etc.) are little-endian (see Compact Framework docs).

        * BinaryWriter.cs: Store data in little-endian format.
        Use internal buffer for conversions.

2002-03-31  Dick Porter  <dick@ximian.com>

        (Read (char[], int, int)): Implemented.
        (DiscardBufferedData): Implemented.

2002-03-21  Mike Kestner <mkestner@speakeasy.net>

        * StreamReader.cs : Fill out, add buffering, and use encoding.

2002-03-19  Martin Baulig  <martin@gnome.org>

        * StreamWriter.cs (StreamWriter (string)): The default is to override
        the file, not to append to it.
        (StreamWriter (string path, bool append)): When appending, seek to the
        end of the file, otherwise truncate the file to zero length.
        (Dispose (bool)): Close the internalStream.
        (Flush): Flush the interalStream.
        (Write (char[], int, int)): Flush the internalStream in auto-flush-mode.

        * FileStream.cs: Flush buffer before FileSetLength.

2002-02-28  Miguel de Icaza  <miguel@ximian.com>

        * Stream.cs (NullStream): Do not track position, this beast does
        nothing in practice.

2002-03-15  Dan Lewis <dihlewis@yahoo.co.uk>

        * SearchPattern.cs: New class. Glob matching code for Directory.
        * Directory.cs: Changed to use SearchPattern instead of mono_glob_*()

2002/03/15 Nick Drochak <ndrochak@gol.com>

        * DirectoryInfo.cs: Fixed the overloaded GetDirectories and GetFiles.
        This code seemed to be copied from somewhere, and it was close,
        but didn't match the docs.  This was the last bit needed to get
        NAnt to compile with our class libs.

2002-03-12  Duncan Mak  <duncan@ximian.com>

        * EndOfStreamException.cs:

2002-03-07  Nick Drochak  <ndrochak@gol.com>

        * FileMode.cs: Docs don't say this should be explicitly derived from
        int, so just make it a normal Enum.

2002-03-02  Jason Diamond  <jason@injektilo.org>

        * StringReader.cs: Fixed off-by-one error in Peek() and Read().

2002-02-12  Nick Drochak  <ndrochak@gol.com>

        (GetFileSystemEntries): Implement.
        (GetFiles): Implement.

        * CheckArgument.cs (Path): Do not allow null by default.

        methods for both reading and writing are implemented.  I'll do the
        asynchronous methods in a bit.
        
Wed Jan  9 16:04:39 MST 2002 Matt Kimball <matt@kimball.net>

        * BinaryWriter.cs: Initial implementation.  And it's all there.

        not UTF8 always.

Wed Jan  9 13:54:28 MST 2002 Matt Kimball <matt@kimbal.net>

        * BinaryReader.cs: Initial implementation.  I think it's complete.

2002-01-04  Ravi Pratap  <ravi@ximian.com>

        * CheckArgument.cs, CheckPermission.cs, Directory.cs: MonoTODO
        attribute decorations.

        * System.IO.MemoryStream.cs: Added.  Had quite a few cases of
        "LAMESPEC", but the tests work against the MS implementation so
        the major functions are right (ie. Read/Write/Seek).  Some more
        tests required for the various constructors and exceptions.

2001-07-16  Marcin Szczepanski <marcins@zipworld.com.au>

        * StringReader.cs, StringWriter.cs, TextReader.cs, TextWriter.cs:
