5 * glib/gthread.c (g_thread_foreach): Mark as new api.
11 * glib/gdate.c (g_date_set_time_t):
12 (g_date_set_time_val): Add functions to set a date from
13 a time_t and from a GTimeVal.
14 (g_date_set_time): Deprecate. (#314067, Roger Leigh)
17 * tests/utf8-pointer.c: Unit tests for g_utf8_pointer_to_offset
18 and g_utf8_offset_to_pointer.
20 * glib/gutf8.c (g_utf8_pointer_to_offset)
21 (g_utf8_offset_to_pointer): Handle negative offsets, and use
22 "stutter stepping" for going backwards. (#320638, Larry
27 * glib/gthread.c: const correctness fixes, found
28 by Arjan van de Ven and gcc.
30 2005-11-16 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
32 * docs/reference/glib/tmpl/unicode.sgml: Correct typo on mentioning
33 @G_UNICODE_BREAK_UNKNOWN that should be #G_UNICODE_BREAK_UNKNOWN.
35 2005-11-09 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
37 * glib/guniprop.c: Use bit hacks instead when checking a general
38 category value against multiple values.
40 * glib/gutf8.c: Change ISO10646 to Unicode in docs.
42 2005-11-10 Simos Xenitellis <simos@gnome.org>
44 * configure.in: Added tt (Tatar) to ALL_LINGUAS.
46 2005-11-05 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
48 * glib/giowin32.c (g_io_win32_set_flags): Don't call g_warning().
49 (#320688) Instead set error and return failure.
51 2005-11-07 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
53 * glib/gmain.c (g_main_dispatch): Don't call cb_funcs->unref
54 while holding the context lock. (#320886, Andy Wingo)
56 2005-11-07 Billy Biggs <vektor@dumbterm.net>
58 * tests/refcount/Makefile.am: Add a missing reference to libglib
59 in the LDADD for this test.
61 2005-11-07 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
63 * glib/gmem.c (g_allocator_new): We need to set n_preallocs to a
64 nonzero value, otherwise GTK+ 2.8 breaks when compiled against
65 GLib 2.9. (#320755, Luca Ferretti)
67 2005-11-04 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
69 * glib/Makefile.am: Apply a patch from Behdad Esfahbod to
70 use a faster lookup table for g_unichar_get_mirror_char().
71 * glib/gmirroringtable.h: The new table.
72 * glib/gunichartables.h: Remove bidi_mirroring_table.
73 * glib/gen-unicode-tables.pl: Don't generate the mirroring
75 * glib/glib-mirroring-tab/*: Sources for the program
76 which generated gmirroringtable.h.
78 * glib/glist.c: Avoid some code duplication.
80 * glib/gscanner.h: Include gdataset.h. (#320322)
82 * glib/gdebug.h: add new GDebugFlag for fatal_criticals
83 * glib/gmessages.c: (_g_debug_init): handle G_DEBUG=fatal_criticals,
84 to help find critical warnings in applications. (#320017,
87 2005-11-02 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
89 * glib/glib.symbols: Remove large amount of trailing whitespace
90 from one line. Remove #ifdef G_UNDEFINED from around
91 g_hash_table_new and g_hash_table_new_full symbols, what was the
92 purpose of that? Add the g_slice functions.
94 Tue Nov 1 16:24:20 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
96 * glib/gmem.[hc]: prepared deprecation of GMemChunk and GAllocator.
97 added g_slice_*() API to allocate and cache small bits of memory.
98 an actuall allocator implementation for g_slice_*() is still pending.
100 * glib/gthread.[hc]: changes from a patch by Matthias Clasen.
101 changed GRealThread list to use in-structure *next; fields instead
102 of GSList, in order for thread iteration to not depenend on g_slice_*()
104 _g_thread_mem_private_get():
105 _g_thread_mem_private_set(): added accessors for private memory,
106 needed because the ordinary GPrivate implementation relies on GArray
107 and GSList and therefore indirectly on working g_slice_*() allocations.
110 g_thread_foreach(): new public API function to loop over all existing threads.
124 removed GAllocator and free list usages and accompanying locks.
125 use g_slice_*() API to allocate and cache small bits of memory.
127 * glib/ghook.h: removed GMemChunk field from public API.
130 * glib/glist.h: deprecate allocator API, provide _free1() for consistency.
132 * glib/gnode.h: deprecate allocator API.
134 * glib/gmain.c: reordered GPollRec fields so g_slice_free_chain() can
135 be used for poll rec lists.
137 * glib/grel.c: removed mem chunk usage, and allocated tuples via g_slice_*().
138 g_relation_destroy(): free all tuples from the all_tuples hash table,
139 this effectively maintains the life time track keeping of tuples.
140 g_relation_delete_tuple(): free tuples which are removed from the
141 all_tuples hash table. this fixes a temporary leak that was present
142 in the memchunk code until the destruction of the relation.
144 2005-10-29 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
146 * tests/convert-test.c: Add some tests for conversions between
147 UTF-8, UCS-4 and UTF-16.
149 * glib/gutf8.c (g_utf8_to_ucs4, g_utf8_to_utf16): Fix handling
150 of len == -1, noticed by Morten Welinder.
152 2005-10-27 Erdal Ronahi <erdal.ronahi@gmail.com>
154 * configure.in: Added ku (Kurdish) to ALL_LINGUAS
156 2005-10-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
158 * glib/gutf8.c (g_ucs4_to_utf8): Don't set items_read twice
159 in the error case, and add some documentation. (#319806, Morten
162 2005-10-19 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
164 * configure.in: Use AC_CHECK_FUNCS for _NSGetEnviron, to get the
165 config.h symbol automatically. Fixes bug #313731.
167 2005-10-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
169 * glib/gwin32.c (g_win32_get_package_installation_directory):
170 Return a g_strdup()ed copy of the value stored in the hash table,
171 so that it can be g_free()d without leaving a dangling pointer in
172 the hash table. (#319232)
174 2005-10-06 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
176 * glib/gunicollate.c (g_utf8_collate_key_for_filename): Handle
177 all-zero sequences correctly. (#317930, Sebastien Bacher)
179 2005-10-05 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
181 * glib/gmarkup.c (g_markup_escape_text): Doc addition
183 * Makefile.am: Add Collation tests.
185 * tests/collate/*: Inputs and expected outputs for collation tests.
187 * tests/run-collate-tests.sh: Script to run collation tests.
189 * tests/unicode-collate.c (main): Rework slightly to make
190 it usable in unit tests. Also test g_utf8_collate_key_for_filename().
192 2005-10-01 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
194 * docs/reference/glib/tmpl/unicode.sgml:
195 * glib/gen-unicode-tables.pl:
197 * glib/gunichartables.h:
199 * tests/casefold.txt:
200 * tests/casemap.txt: Updated to Unicode 4.1. There are five new
201 GUnicodeBreakType types. That may break some applications, like
204 2005-09-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
206 * glib/gstrfuncs.c (g_ascii_strtoull): Add details to the
207 docs. (#314393, Matthew F. Barnes)
210 * glib/gprintf.h: Remove g_snprintf() and g_vsnprintf(), since
211 they are already declared in glib.h. This doesn't break documented
212 use of gprintf.h, but should probably be pointed out in the
213 release notes for 2.10. (#314232, Behdad Esfahbod)
215 Tue Sep 20 13:16:04 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
217 * glib/gpattern.c (g_pattern_ph_match): applied significant recursion
218 complexity optimization, based on a patch from Matthias Clasen.
220 * tests/patterntest.c: more tests, mostly from matthias.
222 2005-09-20 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
224 * glib/gqueue.c (g_queue_insert_sorted): Correct the docs.
225 (#316703, Mark Drago)
227 Mon Sep 19 17:23:23 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
229 * glib/gpattern.c: applied a patch from matthias which checks on the
230 upper bound of GPatternSpec length to optimize matches.
233 * tests/patterntest.c: added more match cases.
235 2005-09-16 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
237 * glib/gstrfuncs.c (g_ascii_strcasecmp, g_ascii_strncasecmp): Add
238 warning to doc comment that these functions should not be used on
239 encodings like CP932.
241 2005-09-14 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
243 * tests/keyfile-test.c: Add a test for grup names of length 1.
245 * glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_line_is_group): Accept group names
246 of length 1. (#316309)
248 2005-09-12 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
250 * glib/gmarkup.c (g_markup_escape_text): Clarify docs.
252 2005-09-11 Sebastian Wilhelmi <seppi@seppi.de>
254 * tests/refcount/Makefile.am (INCLUDES): Link the the refcount
255 tests to the system thread library $(G_THREAD_LIBS). Fixes #313744
258 2005-09-11 Kjartan Maraas <kmaraas@gnome.org>
260 * glib/gmain.c: (g_child_watch_prepare), (g_child_watch_check),
261 (child_watch_helper_thread): Remove some dead code. Closes
264 2005-09-07 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
266 * glib/Makefile.am: Create also a console version of the
267 gspawn-win32-helper program, gspawn-win32-helper-console.exe.
268 It's otherwise identical to gspawn-win32-helper.exe, except marked
269 as a console application (linked without the -mwindows option).
271 * glib/gspawn-win32.c (do_spawn_directly, do_spawn_with_pipes):
272 Drop the dont_wait parameter. Its truth value correlated 100% with
273 the NULLness of the exit_status parameter anyway, so it's enough
274 to check whether exit_status is NULL. Invert the sense of the
275 dont_return_handle parameter and rename it to do_return_handle, to
276 make the code easier to read by avoiding double negations.
278 (g_spawn_sync_utf8, g_spawn_async_with_pipes_utf8): Modify calls
279 to do_spawn_with_pipes() accordingly.
281 (do_spawn_with_pipes): If we have a console, use the console
282 version of the helper program, otherwise use the GUI one. This
283 avoids extra console windows opening up in some situations. (In
284 case a console application uses the GUI gspawn-win32-helper.exe to
285 spawn another console application we would get a separate console
286 for the spawned console application).
288 * glib-zip.in: Distribute also gspawn-win32-helper-console.exe.
290 2005-09-05 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
292 * glib/gmappedfile.c (g_mapped_file_new): Report an error
293 if the file is too large. (#315275, Kjartan Maraas)
295 * glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_load_from_fd): The return value
296 of read() is signed. (#315273, Kjartan Maraas)
298 2005-08-31 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
300 * glib/gutils.h: Wrapping atexit() is a bad idea on Windows, where
301 the EXE and each DLL have their own atexit function chains.
303 #define g_atexit as atexit instead. This means it has a
304 better chance of doing what the caller wants. For instance,
305 gtkhtml calls g_atexit() registering a function in gtkhtml
306 itself. This caused a crash when g_atexit() was implemented as a
307 function in the GLib DLL. The gtkhtml DLL was already unloaded by
308 the time the GLib DLL got unloaded.
310 * glib/gutils.c: #undef the #define mentioned above, to also get a
311 real g_atexit() into the DLL for backward compatibility. Document
312 the Windows behaviour of g_atexit(), and document the varying ways
313 atexit() can behave in the context of dynamically loaded modules
316 2005-08-31 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
320 * glib/gdataset.c: Add string interning functions.
322 2005-08-28 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
324 * glib/giochannel.c: Unify some near-duplicate strings. (#314654,
327 2005-08-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
329 * configure.in: Bump version to 2.9.0
331 2005-08-25 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
333 Make also the g_spawn*() functions take parameters in the GLib
334 file name encoding, i.e. UTF-8, on Windows. Has no impact on Unix
335 API or ABI. Like the other GLib API that was earlier changed to
336 use UTF-8 on Windows, the names of the functions that take UTF-8
337 have _utf8 suffixes added by using preprocessor macros in the
338 header file. The old names are kept for functions with the old
339 behaviour, taking parameters in the system codepage, for DLL ABI
342 * glib/gspawn.h: On Win32 add the suffix _utf8 to the names of the
343 g_spawn*() functions.
345 * glib/gspawn-win32.c: Use wide-char API on NT-based
346 Windows. Convert parameters from UTF-8 to wide chars (NT) or
347 system codepage (Win9x) and call the C library _wspawn*() or
348 spawn*() functions respectvely. Add DLL ABI stability versions
349 that take parameters in the system codepage.
351 * glib/gspawn-win32-helper.c: On NT-based Windows use the
352 wide-char versions of argv and envp, and use wide-char API to
353 change directory and spawn the program to run. Remove the verbose
354 debugging output, it was too complex to modify for the wide-char
355 features. (Just add temporary debugging printouts if needed, no
356 need to have them permanently in the source.)
358 * glib/gspawn.c: Corresponding documentation updates.
360 * glib/glib.symbols: Corresponding changes: Mark the ABI stability
361 symbols as PRIVATE, add the new _utf8-suffixed ones.
363 2005-08-24 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
365 * glib/gtypes.h (G_MININT64): Cast the constant to gint64; it is
366 guint64 otherwise and that can produce warnings about comparison
367 between signed and unsigned.
369 2005-08-23 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
371 * glib/gutils.c: Fix the crt_externs.h include.
373 2005-08-23 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
375 * NEWS: Fix spelling of my first name.
377 2005-08-23 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
381 * === Released 2.8.1 ===
385 2005-08-20 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>
387 * glib/makefile.msc.in : link with ws2_32.lib
389 2005-08-18 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
391 * configure.in: Check for <sys/wait.h>
393 * glib/gbacktrace.c: Include <sys/wait.h> on if HAVE_SYS_WAIT_H.
395 2005-08-18 Ross Burton <ross@burtonini.com>
398 Optimise single-character insertions.
403 * tests/string-test.c:
404 Add tests for new optimisation, and fix a leak.
406 2005-08-17 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
408 * configure.in: Check for crt_externs.h and _NSGetEnviron.
410 * glib/gutils.c: On Darwin, include crt-externs.h and
411 define environ using _NSGetEnviron(). (#313731)
413 2005-08-16 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
415 * glib/gutils.c (g_get_any_init): Move the body of the big if...
416 (g_get_any_init_do): ... to this new function.
417 (g_get_any_init): Declare as inline.
418 (g_get_any_init_locked): New inline function, does the locking.
419 Make use of these two throughout the code.
421 2005-08-15 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
423 * glib/gbacktrace.c (g_on_error_stack_trace): Wait for
424 the child process and then simply return. This makes
425 The "S" option work as documented in g_on_error_query().
426 (#313125, Matthew F. Barnes)
428 * glib/gunicode.h: Update the link to Unicode category
429 values. (#313369, Behnam Esfahbod)
431 * glib/gqueue.c (g_queue_find_custom): Clarify docs
432 a little. (#311727, Tristan van Berkom)
434 * glib/abicheck.sh, gobject/abicheck.sh: Make the
435 check work on ia64 too, where some symbols ended up
436 in yet another section.
