3 * README.in: Add "Notes about glib 2.20" section detailing the
4 ramifications of the patch from bug #528670.
6 2008-09-30 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
8 Bug 554092 – glib doesn't return G_FILE_ERROR_NOENT et al on OS X
10 * glib/giounix.c (g_io_unix_read), (g_io_unix_write),
11 (g_io_unix_seek), (g_io_unix_close), (g_io_unix_set_flags),
12 (g_io_unix_get_flags), (g_io_channel_new_file):
13 Like mclasen says: "well, thats the way errno works...,
14 save it or loose it". Save errno.
16 2008-09-30 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
19 * glib/tests/Makefile.am: Bypass gtester related stuff on Windows.
21 2008-09-30 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
24 * glib/gnulib/vasnprintf.c: Don't define _GNU_SOURCE on Windows,
25 as _GNU_SOURCE has unintended side effects when compiling against
28 2008-09-26 Dan Winship <danw@gnome.org>
30 Bug 553447 – g_assert_no_error()
32 * glib/gtestutils.h (g_assert_no_error, g_assert_error): Macros to
33 assert that a GError is not set, or else is set to a particular
36 * glib/gtestutils.c (g_assertion_message_error): utility for
39 * glib/tests/keyfile.c:
40 * tests/asyncqueue-test.c:
41 * tests/bookmarkfile-test.c:
42 * tests/convert-test.c:
43 * tests/file-test.c: Use g_assert_error/g_assert_no_error
45 2008-09-26 Dan Winship <danw@gnome.org>
47 * glib/gthreadpool.c (wakeup_thread_marker): make this a "const
48 gpointer" rather than a gconstpointer to avoid warnings later
50 * glib/pcre/pcre_ucp_searchfuncs.c:
51 * glib/pcre/pcre_valid_utf8.c: #include "config.h"
53 * glib/tests/printf.c (test_d): fool gcc into not warning about
54 some printf format strings that we know are dubious
56 2008-09-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
58 Bug 553857 – gbacktrace.h requires signal.h
60 * glib/gbacktrace.h: Include signal.h for raise().
61 Pointed out by Sebastien Bacher
63 2008-09-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
65 Bug 553724 – python interpretter path not patched in correctly
67 * glib/Makefile.am: Fix the sed magic to replace python.
69 2008-09-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
71 * glib/gmain.c: Add some more docs.
73 * glib/giochannel.c: Move more docs inline, and improve them
76 2008-09-25 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
78 Bug 553820 - gpoll.c: undeclared identifier
81 * glib/gpoll.c: Make the g_poll() function non-static also on
82 Windows. Prefix an underscore to the g_main_poll_debug variable
83 and make it non-static in gmain.c so that it can be used in
84 gpoll.c. Add back missing variable declaration.
86 2008-09-25 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
88 * glib/gspawn-win32.c (do_spawn_with_pipes) (do_spawn_directly):
89 Just ignore the child_setup function, never call it. The is no
90 situation in which it could be useful on Windows. Do print a
93 * glib/gspawn.c (g_spawn_async_with_pipes): Corresponding change
96 2008-09-24 Sven Herzberg <sven@imendio.com>
98 Be a little more explcit in the docs. Includes Owen's requested
101 * glib/gmain.c: improved documentation for g_source_attach() and
104 2008-09-23 Michael Natterer <mitch@imendio.com>
106 * glib/glib.h: #include <glib/gpoll.h>
108 * glib/gpoll.h: #error out if gpoll.h is included directly.
110 * glib/gpoll.c: remove trailing whitespace.
112 2008-09-23 Dan Winship <danw@gnome.org>
114 * glib/gpoll.[ch] (g_poll): Move this out of gmain.c and make it part
115 of the public API. (Part of Bug 505361 - gunixinputstream.c assumes
118 2008-09-23 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
120 * glib/gmain.c (poll_rest) [Win32]: Fix embarrassing bug: I was
121 passing an incorrect third parameter to memmove(), had forgotten
122 to multiply by the size of the table entry. Just use a for loop
123 instead, clearer. Odd I didn't notice when testing this code.

127 Rewrite most of GHashTable to use open addressing with quadratic
128 probing instead of chaining. This has the potential to reduce memory
129 fragmentation significantly, while being slightly faster due to
130 better locality and no need to call alloc/free functions for nodes.
131 Benchmarks suggest it also uses less memory overall.
133 * glib/ghash.c (prime_mod): Table of suitable primes for
134 initial-probe distribution.
135 (g_hash_table_set_shift): New function.
136 (g_hash_table_find_closest_shift): New function.
137 (g_hash_table_set_shift_from_size): New function.
138 (g_hash_table_lookup_node_for_insertion): New function.
139 (g_hash_table_lookup_node): Rewritten to return node index instead of
140 pointer, use quadratic probe on flat table, and not return insertion
141 data. The latter saves some computation for read-only lookups.
142 (g_hash_table_remove_node): Rewrite to take a pointer directly to the
143 node structure to remove, and clear that. Remove unlinking code.
144 (g_hash_table_remove_all_nodes): Rewrite to not clear nodes
145 individually, but en masse using memset () after potentially calling
147 (iter_remove_or_steal): Use new data structure and algorithm. Vastly
148 simplified - now just a call to g_hash_table_remove_node ().
149 (g_hash_table_resize): New resize code, re-indexing with new prime
150 and cleaning up tombstones.
151 (g_hash_table_maybe_resize): Table may hold 8 buckets minimum, no less
152 than 1/4 load excluding tombstones, and no more than 15/16 load
153 including tombstones. These numbers are the results of a lot of
154 benchmarking with multiple complex applications, and should not be
156 (g_hash_table_iter_next)
157 (g_hash_table_lookup)
158 (g_hash_table_lookup_extended)
159 (g_hash_table_insert_internal)
160 (g_hash_table_remove_internal)
161 (g_hash_table_foreach_remove_or_steal)
162 (g_hash_table_foreach)
164 (g_hash_table_get_keys)
165 (g_hash_table_get_values): Use new data structure and algorithm,
166 fairly trivial changes.
168 2008-09-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
170 * glib-zip.in: Look for man pages in share/man.
172 * glib/gutils.c (_glib_get_dll_directory)
173 * glib/gspawn-win32.c (do_spawn_with_pipes): Be a bit less
174 restrictive, look for the helper programs in the same folder where
175 the GLib DLL is, not necessarily in a "bin" subfolder of the top
176 GLib installation folder.
178 2008-09-18 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
180 * configure.in: Bump version to 2.19.0
182 * ChangeLog.pre-2-18: rotate ChangeLog
