3 Win32: With the latest gcc (2.95, pre-release), we can have binary
4 compatibility with MSVC by using the switch -fnative-struct. No
5 longer build DLLs with .gcc in the name when using gcc.
7 * README.win32: Renew gcc build instructions.
9 * build-dll: Comments change, handle also .a files.
12 * tests/makefile.cygwin.in: Remove .gcc from DLL name.
14 1999-07-13 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
16 * README.win32: Correct URL for mingw runtime sources.
18 * build-dll: Combine commands with &&.
20 * glib.h: Map also rmdir() and hypot() for MSVCRT library.
23 * tests/makefile.cygwin.in: New DLL naming style. GCC-compiled DLLs are
24 now called *.gcc.dll, to avoid binary incompatibilities with
25 MSVC-compiled versions.
27 * makefile.msc.in: Cosmetics.
29 1999-07-07 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
31 * configure.in: Test for pthread_join rather than for
32 pthread_create to determine the right thread-lib. Makes it work on
33 mips-sgi-irix6.5. Hitn from to Jari Vuoksenranta
34 <javu@piano.ux.phys.jyu.fi>.
36 1999-07-02 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
38 * README.win32: Note about need to fix another bug in the mingw32
41 * makefile.msc.in: Debugging turned on via an nmake variable,
42 no need to edit the makefile.
44 1999-07-01 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
46 * configure.in, acconfig.h, gutils.c: Added a g_memmove
47 replacement for platforms without memmove, where bcopy can't
48 handle overlapping copies and the corresponding checks, which is
49 taken form the PERL Configure routine.
51 * glib.h: Updated the commentary about g_memmove to be right and
54 * configure.in: Removed test for rand_r, as it isn't used anymore.
56 1999-06-30 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
58 * glib.h, grand.c: Finally removed the g_random_normal and
59 g_rand_normal functions.

84 using gcc on Win32, g_thread_functions_for_glib_use must be marked
87 * gtimer.c: Implement g_usleep on native Win32 using Sleep (which
88 only has millisecond granularity, though).
91 * makefile.msc.in: Update pthreads snapshot version. File
92 name changes. Remove testgthread.
94 * tests/makefile.cygwin.in
95 * tests/makefile.msc.in: Add thread-test. Link with gthread lib.

104 AC_TRY_COMPILE to AC_TRY_LINK.
106 1999-06-17 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
108 * configure.in, acglib.m4, acconfig.h, glib.h, gthread.c:
109 Completed the thread support in GLib. Thread creation,
110 prioritizing threads, yielding, joining threads as well as
111 reader/writer locks and recursive mutexes are now in place. Please
112 test heavily on your platform. It is so far tested on
113 Linux/i386/pthreads, Solaris/Sparc/pthreads and
114 Solaris/Sparc/solaristhreads.
116 * gtimer.c, glib.h: Implement g_usleep (gulong microseconds) for
117 thread safe sleeping. (sleep() is not MT-safe at all!)
119 * gutils.c: Avoid compiler warning.
121 * tests/Makefile.am, tests/thread-test.c: New program to test some
122 aspects of the thread implementation.
124 * gthread.c, Makefile.am: Renamed from gmutex.c to reflect the

149 patch to the egcs-1.1.2 spec file.
151 Wed May 12 00:23:55 CDT 1999 Shawn T. Amundson <amundson@gtk.org>
153 * gmodule/Makefile.am: Another small fix.
155 1999-05-08 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
157 * Makefile.am tests/Makefile.am: Correct rules for making the
158 win32-related files that are made from corresponding .in files.
159 Is there a cleaner way than explicitly writing rules that invoke
162 Sat May 8 06:00:17 CDT 1999 Shawn T. Amundson <amundson@gtk.org>
166 gthread/Makefile.am: Better testing reveals better
167 methods. Fixes for BeOS.

187 config.h.win32.in tests/makefile.msc.in tests/makefile.cygwin.in:
188 New files, used to generate corresponding non-.in files when
189 making a dist. This is just so the version numbers will be kept in
192 * configure.in: Also substitute @GLIB_MAJOR_VERSION@,
193 @GLIB_MINOR_VERSION@, and @GLIB_INTERFACE_AGE@.
195 * Makefile.am tests/Makefile.am: Also distribute makefile.cygwin.

218 * gutils.c: Remove old IO channel code (was in #if 0).
219 * makefile.cygwin: Don't need to link with kernel32 and msvcrt
220 explicitly, they are included anyway.
222 1999-04-24 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
224 Support added for building using a GNU toolchain on Win32,
225 i.e. gcc -mno-cygwin on cygwin (a.k.a. mingw32, using egcs-1.1.2).
227 * README.win32: Updated.
228 * build-dll makefile.cygwin tests/makefile.cygwin: New files.

241 Fri Apr 23 14:29:25 BST 1999 Tony Gale <gale@gtk.org>
243 * glib.h: Fix typo in g_string_ncasecmp macro (by me).
244 Add b_string_strncasecmp macro.
246 1999-04-22 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
248 * gutils.c (g_get_any_init): use sysconf (_SC_GETPW_R_SIZE_MAX) as
249 the new initinal bufsize for getpwuid_r on systems, that support
250 this. Hint from Holger Duerer <H.Duerer@zait.uni-bremen.de>.
252 Sat Apr 17 20:55:13 BST 1999 Tony Gale <gale@gtk.org>
254 * glib.h, gstring.c: Add new g_string functions for reading
255 from file/socket descriptors, and tokenising strings.

282 1999-04-09 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
284 * grand.c, tests/rand-test.c: New files to implement the Mersenne
285 Twister Pseudo Random Number Generator.
287 * glib.h, AUTHORS, Makefile.am, tests/Makefile.am: Changed
290 Thu Apr 8 21:12:30 CDT 1999 Shawn T. Amundson <amundson@gtk.org>
292 * Released GLib 1.3.0
294 1999-03-30 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
296 * configure.in: Added a check for the right format to printf and
297 scanf long longs. It is %qi instead of %lli on FreeBSD for
300 1999-03-28 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
302 * Makefile.am (glibconfig.h): Make sure `glibconfig.h' exists
303 after the rule is fired.
304 (install-exec-local): Install glibconfig.h only if the contents
305 are different from the currently installed glibconfig.h.
307 1999-03-26 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
309 * Makefile.am (configexecincludedir): Rename from
310 configincludedir so that glibconfig.h will be installed
311 as part of `make install-exec'.
313 Thu Mar 25 22:45:47 1999 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
315 * config.h.win32: Update version numbers.
317 * glibconfig.h.win32: Update version numbers and pthreads-win32-
318 related magic values.
320 * README.win32: Some improvements.
322 * makefile.msc: Add gqueue and gstack. Correct version number.
324 Fri Mar 19 16:29:50 PST 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
330 * ltmain.sh: upgrade to libtool 1.2f
332 * autogen.sh: libtool is not required to autogen glib
334 * acconfig.h: remove WITH_SYMBOL_UNDERSCORE (not explictly
337 1999-03-18 Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
339 * glib.def: Add new g_list, g_stack, g_queue functions.
341 1999-03-18 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
343 * configure.in: added new AC_SUBST(GTHREAD_COMPILE_IMPL_DEFINES)
344 to hold various defines to get the right thread implementation on
345 different platforms. Also look in -ldce for pthread_create. Should
346 make it work on HP-UX 10.x. Information from "D. Emilio Grimaldo
347 Tunon" <emilio_tunon@nl.compuware.com>.
349 1999-03-17 Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
351 * gstack.c, gqueue.c:
352 Add copyright, clean up code a bit.
354 1999-03-17 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

361 * glibconfig.h.win32, config.h.win32: Moved G_THREADS_IMPL_POSIX
362 from config.h.win32 to glibconfig.h.win32. Taken from glib 1.2
365 * configure.in: Also accept _Pctime_r instead of ctime_r, while
366 seraching for the right `_REENTRANT' flag. This is for Digital
367 UNIX 4.0d. Taken from glib 1.2 branch.
369 Wed Mar 17 03:14:56 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
371 * glib.h: added GLIB_CHECK_VERSION() macro similar to
374 Wed Mar 17 01:46:28 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
376 * merges from glib-1-2:
378 Sun Mar 14 17:50:35 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
380 * gmem.c (g_mem_chunk_*): changed a bunch of g_assert() statements
381 to g_return_if_fail().
384 (g_mem_chunk_info): removed some extraneous "\n"s at the end of the log
387 * gtimer.c (g_timer_*): changed a bunch of g_assert() statements
388 to g_return_if_fail().
389 * grel.c (g_*): changed a bunch of g_assert() statements to
390 g_return_if_fail() and added some extra ones to check relation != NULL.
392 Tue Mar 9 23:25:50 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
394 * configure.in: check for working realloc (NULL,).
395 * gmem.c (g_realloc): use malloc() for initial allocation on systems
396 where realloc(NULL,) will not work (this is the case on SunOS, reported
399 Mon Mar 8 07:42:08 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
401 * ghook.c (g_hook_unref): when !hook_list->is_setup, wrap the
402 flag around the call to g_hook_free() to avoid spurious
403 warnings (happens during destruction phase).
405 1999-03-02 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
407 * gmem.c: Fixed a stupid cut'n'paste error of mine. Thanks to
408 Friedrich Dominicus <Friedrich.Dominicus@inka.de>
410 1999-03-16 Timur Bakeyev <mc@bat.ru>
412 * configure.in: Fix problem with pthread_create in libc, as running
413 "gcc test.c -l " is not legal.
415 1999-03-16 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
417 * tests/type-test.c: Added a test for the
418 G_(U)?INT(16|32|64)_FORMAT and G_(MIN|MAX|MAXU)(SHORT|INT|LONG)
421 * configure.in: Removed G_(U)?INT8_FORMAT again, as it can't be
424 * configure.in: Added the macros G_MAXU(SHORT|INT|LONG). I do not
425 know how to handle these on platforms with /usr/include/values.h,
426 but without /usr/include/limits.h. Please someone add this.
429 1999-03-15 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
431 * configure.in: Added the macros G_(U)?INT(8|16|32|64)_FORMAT to
432 use for printf and (much more important) scanf format strings for
433 the corresponding GLib types.
435 * glib.h Added G_(U)?(SHORT|INT|LONG)_FORMAT for consistency. It
436 however makes no sense to also provide G_(FLOAT|DOUBLE)_FORMAT, as
437 they are different for printf (f for both) and scanf (f for float,
438 lf for double). Defining G_INT_FORMAT makes sense however, as we
439 might want to define gint to something different than int someday
440 in the future. Idea from Sascha Brawer <sb@adasys.ch>.
442 1999-03-14 Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
445 Commented out debugging output.
447 * tests/Makefile.am, tests/date-test.c:
448 Added test of the GDate module, based closely on testgdate.c.
451 Bugfix - compile tests with @GLIB_DEBUG_FLAGS@.
453 1999-03-14 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
455 * configure.in (glibconfig.h): Remove widechar tests and defines.
456 (fd_set): Change the grep for `fd_mask' to search for `fd_set'.
457 * gerror.c (fd_mask): Remove conditional typedef. It is not used
458 elsewhere in the file.
459 * gmain.c (fd_mask): Likewise.
461 1999-03-12 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
463 * configure.in: Test for posix threads first, then for dce threads.
465 1999-03-11 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
467 * configure.in: Revamped the thread configure stuff. Now dce
468 threads (old posix draft) are recogniced. This is necessary,
469 because dce threads are in fact working quite differently from
470 posix threads. Also changed the conditions for checking for MT
471 safe functions a bit, because G_THREADS_IMPL_NONE still have to
472 compile thread safe. NOTE: Please do not commit my change to
473 glib-1-2/{acconfig.h,configure.in,config.h.win32} from 1999-03-03,
474 as the current change will take care of that too.
476 Tue Mar 9 14:37:32 1999 Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
478 * Makefile.am, glib.h, gstack.c, gqueue.c,
479 tests/Makefile.am, tests/queue-test.c, tests/stack-test.c:
480 Added stack, queue ADTs and related tests.
483 New g_list_delete() function.
485 Sat Mar 6 11:03:08 1999 Asbjorn Pettersen <ape@lrdpf.spacetec.no>
487 * gutils.c (g_get_any_init): add OS/2 changes.
488 change '\\' in HOME to '/'.
490 1999-03-03 Josh MacDonald <jmacd@spin.dsl.pacbell.net>
492 * glib.def: g_spaced_primes_closest was omitted here, so I
493 couldn't build Xdelta on Windows.
495 1999-03-01 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
497 * gutils.c (g_get_any_init): Fixed yet another bloody
498 implementation of getpwuid_r on AIX. Thanks to Olaf Dietsche
499 <olaf.dietsche+list.gtk@netcologne.de>. I would like a configure
500 test better than that, but have no idea, how to do that easily.
502 Sat Feb 27 01:18:47 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
504 * ChangeLog: moved old ChangeLog to ChangeLog.pre-1-2, and started
507 * configure.in: set glib version to 1.3.0.
