3 * glib/glib.symbols: Updates
5 * glib/gutf8.c (g_utf8_offset_to_pointer): Add some performance
6 hints to the docs. (Paolo Borelli)
10 * glib/gthread.c (g_thread_foreach): Mark as new api.
16 * glib/gdate.c (g_date_set_time_t):
17 (g_date_set_time_val): Add functions to set a date from
18 a time_t and from a GTimeVal.
19 (g_date_set_time): Deprecate. (#314067, Roger Leigh)
22 * tests/utf8-pointer.c: Unit tests for g_utf8_pointer_to_offset
23 and g_utf8_offset_to_pointer.
25 * glib/gutf8.c (g_utf8_pointer_to_offset)
26 (g_utf8_offset_to_pointer): Handle negative offsets, and use
27 "stutter stepping" for going backwards. (#320638, Larry
32 * glib/gthread.c: const correctness fixes, found
33 by Arjan van de Ven and gcc.
35 2005-11-16 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
37 * docs/reference/glib/tmpl/unicode.sgml: Correct typo on mentioning
38 @G_UNICODE_BREAK_UNKNOWN that should be #G_UNICODE_BREAK_UNKNOWN.
40 2005-11-09 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
42 * glib/guniprop.c: Use bit hacks instead when checking a general
43 category value against multiple values.
45 * glib/gutf8.c: Change ISO10646 to Unicode in docs.
47 2005-11-10 Simos Xenitellis <simos@gnome.org>
49 * configure.in: Added tt (Tatar) to ALL_LINGUAS.
51 2005-11-05 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
53 * glib/giowin32.c (g_io_win32_set_flags): Don't call g_warning().
54 (#320688) Instead set error and return failure.
56 2005-11-07 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
58 * glib/gmain.c (g_main_dispatch): Don't call cb_funcs->unref
59 while holding the context lock. (#320886, Andy Wingo)
61 2005-11-07 Billy Biggs <vektor@dumbterm.net>
63 * tests/refcount/Makefile.am: Add a missing reference to libglib
64 in the LDADD for this test.
66 2005-11-07 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
68 * glib/gmem.c (g_allocator_new): We need to set n_preallocs to a
69 nonzero value, otherwise GTK+ 2.8 breaks when compiled against
70 GLib 2.9. (#320755, Luca Ferretti)
72 2005-11-04 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
74 * glib/Makefile.am: Apply a patch from Behdad Esfahbod to
75 use a faster lookup table for g_unichar_get_mirror_char().
76 * glib/gmirroringtable.h: The new table.
77 * glib/gunichartables.h: Remove bidi_mirroring_table.
78 * glib/gen-unicode-tables.pl: Don't generate the mirroring
80 * glib/glib-mirroring-tab/*: Sources for the program
81 which generated gmirroringtable.h.
83 * glib/glist.c: Avoid some code duplication.
85 * glib/gscanner.h: Include gdataset.h. (#320322)
87 * glib/gdebug.h: add new GDebugFlag for fatal_criticals
88 * glib/gmessages.c: (_g_debug_init): handle G_DEBUG=fatal_criticals,
89 to help find critical warnings in applications. (#320017,
92 2005-11-02 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
94 * glib/glib.symbols: Remove large amount of trailing whitespace
95 from one line. Remove #ifdef G_UNDEFINED from around
96 g_hash_table_new and g_hash_table_new_full symbols, what was the
97 purpose of that? Add the g_slice functions.
99 Tue Nov 1 16:24:20 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
101 * glib/gmem.[hc]: prepared deprecation of GMemChunk and GAllocator.
102 added g_slice_*() API to allocate and cache small bits of memory.
103 an actuall allocator implementation for g_slice_*() is still pending.
105 * glib/gthread.[hc]: changes from a patch by Matthias Clasen.
106 changed GRealThread list to use in-structure *next; fields instead
107 of GSList, in order for thread iteration to not depenend on g_slice_*()
109 _g_thread_mem_private_get():
110 _g_thread_mem_private_set(): added accessors for private memory,
111 needed because the ordinary GPrivate implementation relies on GArray
112 and GSList and therefore indirectly on working g_slice_*() allocations.
115 g_thread_foreach(): new public API function to loop over all existing threads.
129 removed GAllocator and free list usages and accompanying locks.
130 use g_slice_*() API to allocate and cache small bits of memory.
132 * glib/ghook.h: removed GMemChunk field from public API.
135 * glib/glist.h: deprecate allocator API, provide _free1() for consistency.
137 * glib/gnode.h: deprecate allocator API.
139 * glib/gmain.c: reordered GPollRec fields so g_slice_free_chain() can
140 be used for poll rec lists.
142 * glib/grel.c: removed mem chunk usage, and allocated tuples via g_slice_*().
143 g_relation_destroy(): free all tuples from the all_tuples hash table,
144 this effectively maintains the life time track keeping of tuples.
145 g_relation_delete_tuple(): free tuples which are removed from the
146 all_tuples hash table. this fixes a temporary leak that was present
147 in the memchunk code until the destruction of the relation.
149 2005-10-29 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
151 * tests/convert-test.c: Add some tests for conversions between
152 UTF-8, UCS-4 and UTF-16.
154 * glib/gutf8.c (g_utf8_to_ucs4, g_utf8_to_utf16): Fix handling
155 of len == -1, noticed by Morten Welinder.
157 2005-10-27 Erdal Ronahi <erdal.ronahi@gmail.com>
159 * configure.in: Added ku (Kurdish) to ALL_LINGUAS
161 2005-10-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
163 * glib/gutf8.c (g_ucs4_to_utf8): Don't set items_read twice
164 in the error case, and add some documentation. (#319806, Morten
167 2005-10-19 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
169 * configure.in: Use AC_CHECK_FUNCS for _NSGetEnviron, to get the
170 config.h symbol automatically. Fixes bug #313731.
172 2005-10-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
174 * glib/gwin32.c (g_win32_get_package_installation_directory):
175 Return a g_strdup()ed copy of the value stored in the hash table,
176 so that it can be g_free()d without leaving a dangling pointer in
177 the hash table. (#319232)
179 2005-10-06 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
181 * glib/gunicollate.c (g_utf8_collate_key_for_filename): Handle
182 all-zero sequences correctly. (#317930, Sebastien Bacher)
184 2005-10-05 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
186 * glib/gmarkup.c (g_markup_escape_text): Doc addition
188 * Makefile.am: Add Collation tests.
190 * tests/collate/*: Inputs and expected outputs for collation tests.
192 * tests/run-collate-tests.sh: Script to run collation tests.
194 * tests/unicode-collate.c (main): Rework slightly to make
195 it usable in unit tests. Also test g_utf8_collate_key_for_filename().
197 2005-10-01 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
199 * docs/reference/glib/tmpl/unicode.sgml:
200 * glib/gen-unicode-tables.pl:
202 * glib/gunichartables.h:
204 * tests/casefold.txt:
205 * tests/casemap.txt: Updated to Unicode 4.1. There are five new
206 GUnicodeBreakType types. That may break some applications, like
209 2005-09-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
211 * glib/gstrfuncs.c (g_ascii_strtoull): Add details to the
212 docs. (#314393, Matthew F. Barnes)
215 * glib/gprintf.h: Remove g_snprintf() and g_vsnprintf(), since
216 they are already declared in glib.h. This doesn't break documented
217 use of gprintf.h, but should probably be pointed out in the
218 release notes for 2.10. (#314232, Behdad Esfahbod)
220 Tue Sep 20 13:16:04 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
222 * glib/gpattern.c (g_pattern_ph_match): applied significant recursion
223 complexity optimization, based on a patch from Matthias Clasen.
225 * tests/patterntest.c: more tests, mostly from matthias.
227 2005-09-20 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
229 * glib/gqueue.c (g_queue_insert_sorted): Correct the docs.
230 (#316703, Mark Drago)
232 Mon Sep 19 17:23:23 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
234 * glib/gpattern.c: applied a patch from matthias which checks on the
235 upper bound of GPatternSpec length to optimize matches.
238 * tests/patterntest.c: added more match cases.
240 2005-09-16 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
242 * glib/gstrfuncs.c (g_ascii_strcasecmp, g_ascii_strncasecmp): Add
243 warning to doc comment that these functions should not be used on
244 encodings like CP932.
246 2005-09-14 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
248 * tests/keyfile-test.c: Add a test for grup names of length 1.
250 * glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_line_is_group): Accept group names
251 of length 1. (#316309)
253 2005-09-12 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
255 * glib/gmarkup.c (g_markup_escape_text): Clarify docs.
257 2005-09-11 Sebastian Wilhelmi <seppi@seppi.de>
259 * tests/refcount/Makefile.am (INCLUDES): Link the the refcount
260 tests to the system thread library $(G_THREAD_LIBS). Fixes #313744
263 2005-09-11 Kjartan Maraas <kmaraas@gnome.org>
265 * glib/gmain.c: (g_child_watch_prepare), (g_child_watch_check),
266 (child_watch_helper_thread): Remove some dead code. Closes
269 2005-09-07 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
271 * glib/Makefile.am: Create also a console version of the
272 gspawn-win32-helper program, gspawn-win32-helper-console.exe.
273 It's otherwise identical to gspawn-win32-helper.exe, except marked
274 as a console application (linked without the -mwindows option).
276 * glib/gspawn-win32.c (do_spawn_directly, do_spawn_with_pipes):
277 Drop the dont_wait parameter. Its truth value correlated 100% with
278 the NULLness of the exit_status parameter anyway, so it's enough
279 to check whether exit_status is NULL. Invert the sense of the
280 dont_return_handle parameter and rename it to do_return_handle, to
281 make the code easier to read by avoiding double negations.
283 (g_spawn_sync_utf8, g_spawn_async_with_pipes_utf8): Modify calls
284 to do_spawn_with_pipes() accordingly.
286 (do_spawn_with_pipes): If we have a console, use the console
287 version of the helper program, otherwise use the GUI one. This
288 avoids extra console windows opening up in some situations. (In
289 case a console application uses the GUI gspawn-win32-helper.exe to
290 spawn another console application we would get a separate console
291 for the spawned console application).
293 * glib-zip.in: Distribute also gspawn-win32-helper-console.exe.
295 2005-09-05 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
297 * glib/gmappedfile.c (g_mapped_file_new): Report an error
298 if the file is too large. (#315275, Kjartan Maraas)
300 * glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_load_from_fd): The return value
301 of read() is signed. (#315273, Kjartan Maraas)
303 2005-08-31 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
305 * glib/gutils.h: Wrapping atexit() is a bad idea on Windows, where
306 the EXE and each DLL have their own atexit function chains.
308 #define g_atexit as atexit instead. This means it has a
309 better chance of doing what the caller wants. For instance,
310 gtkhtml calls g_atexit() registering a function in gtkhtml
311 itself. This caused a crash when g_atexit() was implemented as a
312 function in the GLib DLL. The gtkhtml DLL was already unloaded by
313 the time the GLib DLL got unloaded.
315 * glib/gutils.c: #undef the #define mentioned above, to also get a
316 real g_atexit() into the DLL for backward compatibility. Document
317 the Windows behaviour of g_atexit(), and document the varying ways
318 atexit() can behave in the context of dynamically loaded modules
321 2005-08-31 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
325 * glib/gdataset.c: Add string interning functions.
327 2005-08-28 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
329 * glib/giochannel.c: Unify some near-duplicate strings. (#314654,
332 2005-08-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
334 * configure.in: Bump version to 2.9.0
336 2005-08-25 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
338 Make also the g_spawn*() functions take parameters in the GLib
339 file name encoding, i.e. UTF-8, on Windows. Has no impact on Unix
340 API or ABI. Like the other GLib API that was earlier changed to
341 use UTF-8 on Windows, the names of the functions that take UTF-8
342 have _utf8 suffixes added by using preprocessor macros in the
343 header file. The old names are kept for functions with the old
344 behaviour, taking parameters in the system codepage, for DLL ABI
347 * glib/gspawn.h: On Win32 add the suffix _utf8 to the names of the
348 g_spawn*() functions.
350 * glib/gspawn-win32.c: Use wide-char API on NT-based
351 Windows. Convert parameters from UTF-8 to wide chars (NT) or
352 system codepage (Win9x) and call the C library _wspawn*() or
353 spawn*() functions respectvely. Add DLL ABI stability versions
354 that take parameters in the system codepage.
356 * glib/gspawn-win32-helper.c: On NT-based Windows use the
357 wide-char versions of argv and envp, and use wide-char API to
358 change directory and spawn the program to run. Remove the verbose
359 debugging output, it was too complex to modify for the wide-char
360 features. (Just add temporary debugging printouts if needed, no
361 need to have them permanently in the source.)
363 * glib/gspawn.c: Corresponding documentation updates.
365 * glib/glib.symbols: Corresponding changes: Mark the ABI stability
366 symbols as PRIVATE, add the new _utf8-suffixed ones.
368 2005-08-24 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
370 * glib/gtypes.h (G_MININT64): Cast the constant to gint64; it is
371 guint64 otherwise and that can produce warnings about comparison
372 between signed and unsigned.
374 2005-08-23 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
376 * glib/gutils.c: Fix the crt_externs.h include.
378 2005-08-23 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
380 * NEWS: Fix spelling of my first name.
382 2005-08-23 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
386 * === Released 2.8.1 ===
390 2005-08-20 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>
392 * glib/makefile.msc.in : link with ws2_32.lib
394 2005-08-18 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
396 * configure.in: Check for <sys/wait.h>
398 * glib/gbacktrace.c: Include <sys/wait.h> on if HAVE_SYS_WAIT_H.
400 2005-08-18 Ross Burton <ross@burtonini.com>
403 Optimise single-character insertions.
408 * tests/string-test.c:
409 Add tests for new optimisation, and fix a leak.
411 2005-08-17 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
413 * configure.in: Check for crt_externs.h and _NSGetEnviron.
415 * glib/gutils.c: On Darwin, include crt-externs.h and
416 define environ using _NSGetEnviron(). (#313731)
418 2005-08-16 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
420 * glib/gutils.c (g_get_any_init): Move the body of the big if...
421 (g_get_any_init_do): ... to this new function.
422 (g_get_any_init): Declare as inline.
423 (g_get_any_init_locked): New inline function, does the locking.
424 Make use of these two throughout the code.
426 2005-08-15 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
428 * glib/gbacktrace.c (g_on_error_stack_trace): Wait for
429 the child process and then simply return. This makes
430 The "S" option work as documented in g_on_error_query().
431 (#313125, Matthew F. Barnes)
433 * glib/gunicode.h: Update the link to Unicode category
434 values. (#313369, Behnam Esfahbod)
436 * glib/gqueue.c (g_queue_find_custom): Clarify docs
437 a little. (#311727, Tristan van Berkom)
439 * glib/abicheck.sh, gobject/abicheck.sh: Make the
440 check work on ia64 too, where some symbols ended up
441 in yet another section.
