138 2008-10-29 16:11:14 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
140 * glib/gmacros.h: added G_PASTE() and G_STATIC_ASSERT(), based on

142 Bug 558381 - Add support for compile time assertions
144 2008-10-27 Joseph Pingenot <gnomesvn@digitasaru.net>
146 * glib/ghash.c: changed "#GHashTableIterator" to "#GHashTableIter"
147 in the documentation-comments above g_hash_table_foreach_remove()
148 and g_hash_table_foreach_steal() to correctly name and link to
149 GHashTableIter. This affects the GNOME documentation website
150 as well, so further steps are likely necessary beyond this subproject..

173 2008-10-19 Michael Natterer <mitch@imendio.com>
175 Bug 556186 – gpoll.h breaks gmain.h inclusion
177 * glib/gpoll.h: different fix: disallow direct inclusion
178 unconditionally again but make an exception if included from
179 gmain.h to maintain compatibility.
181 2008-10-16 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
183 * configure.in: Bump version to 2.19.1

196 2008-10-13 Sven Herzberg <sven@imendio.com>
198 Bug 556101 – static mutex yields warnings with g++
199 Reviewed by Tim Janik
201 * configure.in: added an intermediate cast to gpointer
203 2008-10-13 Christian Persch <chpe@gnome.org>
205 Bug 555311 – format not a string literal and no format arguments
208 * glib/gshell.c: Use literal errors where appropriate.
210 2008-10-10 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
212 Bug 551355 – [PATCH] Make glib build with libtool 2.2
214 * autogen.sh: Accept libtool 2.2. We are moving towards having

233 Bug 552861 – glib-2.0.m4 calls system(3) without storing its result
235 * m4macros/glib-2.0.m4: Cosmetic change to make -Werror happy.
236 Patch by Andreas Köhler
238 2008-10-08 Christian Persch <chpe@gnome.org>

241 use usual get_type pattern
243 * gio/gfileattribute.c (g_file_attribute_info_list_get_type): Use

252 2008-10-08 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
254 Bug 554790 - g_convert() misbehaves with winiconv versions
256 * glib/win_iconv.c (kernel_mbtowc): If converting from ASCII,
257 explicitly check for and reject 8bit chars. MultiByteToWideChar()
258 doesn't, at least not on XP.
260 2008-10-06 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
262 * glib/gtypes.h: Properly include gmacros.h

270 (g_io_unix_seek), (g_io_unix_close), (g_io_unix_set_flags):

277 * glib/gfileutils.c: change g_format_size_for_display API doc to
278 explicitly say that the returned string has to be freed. Change
279 spelling of "newly allocated" to "newly-allocated" in g_file_read_link
280 API doc to be more consistent with what is done in that file.
282 2008-10-01 David Zeuthen <davidz@redhat.com>
284 * README.in: Add "Notes about glib 2.20" section detailing the
285 ramifications of the patch from bug #528670.
287 2008-09-30 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
289 Bug 554092 – glib doesn't return G_FILE_ERROR_NOENT et al on OS X

292 (g_io_unix_seek), (g_io_unix_close), (g_io_unix_set_flags),
293 (g_io_unix_get_flags), (g_io_channel_new_file):
294 Like mclasen says: "well, thats the way errno works...,
295 save it or loose it". Save errno.
297 2008-09-30 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
300 * glib/tests/Makefile.am: Bypass gtester related stuff on Windows.
302 2008-09-30 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
305 * glib/gnulib/vasnprintf.c: Don't define _GNU_SOURCE on Windows,
306 as _GNU_SOURCE has unintended side effects when compiling against
307 newest mingw headers.
309 2008-09-26 Dan Winship <danw@gnome.org>
311 Bug 553447 – g_assert_no_error()

328 * glib/gthreadpool.c (wakeup_thread_marker): make this a "const
329 gpointer" rather than a gconstpointer to avoid warnings later

359 Bug 553820 - gpoll.c: undeclared identifier
362 * glib/gpoll.c: Make the g_poll() function non-static also on
363 Windows. Prefix an underscore to the g_main_poll_debug variable
364 and make it non-static in gmain.c so that it can be used in
365 gpoll.c. Add back missing variable declaration.
367 2008-09-25 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
369 * glib/gspawn-win32.c (do_spawn_with_pipes) (do_spawn_directly):
370 Just ignore the child_setup function, never call it. The is no
371 situation in which it could be useful on Windows. Do print a
372 warning, like before.

396 of the public API. (Part of Bug 505361 - gunixinputstream.c assumes
399 2008-09-23 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
401 * glib/gmain.c (poll_rest) [Win32]: Fix embarrassing bug: I was
402 passing an incorrect third parameter to memmove(), had forgotten
403 to multiply by the size of the table entry. Just use a for loop
404 instead, clearer. Odd I didn't notice when testing this code.
406 2008-09-19 Hans Petter Jansson <hpj@novell.com>
408 Rewrite most of GHashTable to use open addressing with quadratic
409 probing instead of chaining. This has the potential to reduce memory
410 fragmentation significantly, while being slightly faster due to
411 better locality and no need to call alloc/free functions for nodes.
412 Benchmarks suggest it also uses less memory overall.
414 * glib/ghash.c (prime_mod): Table of suitable primes for
415 initial-probe distribution.
416 (g_hash_table_set_shift): New function.
417 (g_hash_table_find_closest_shift): New function.
418 (g_hash_table_set_shift_from_size): New function.
419 (g_hash_table_lookup_node_for_insertion): New function.
420 (g_hash_table_lookup_node): Rewritten to return node index instead of
421 pointer, use quadratic probe on flat table, and not return insertion
422 data. The latter saves some computation for read-only lookups.
423 (g_hash_table_remove_node): Rewrite to take a pointer directly to the
424 node structure to remove, and clear that. Remove unlinking code.
425 (g_hash_table_remove_all_nodes): Rewrite to not clear nodes
426 individually, but en masse using memset () after potentially calling
428 (iter_remove_or_steal): Use new data structure and algorithm. Vastly
429 simplified - now just a call to g_hash_table_remove_node ().
430 (g_hash_table_resize): New resize code, re-indexing with new prime
431 and cleaning up tombstones.
432 (g_hash_table_maybe_resize): Table may hold 8 buckets minimum, no less
433 than 1/4 load excluding tombstones, and no more than 15/16 load
434 including tombstones. These numbers are the results of a lot of
435 benchmarking with multiple complex applications, and should not be

443 (g_hash_table_foreach)
445 (g_hash_table_get_keys)
446 (g_hash_table_get_values): Use new data structure and algorithm,
447 fairly trivial changes.
449 2008-09-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
451 * glib-zip.in: Look for man pages in share/man.
453 * glib/gutils.c (_glib_get_dll_directory)
454 * glib/gspawn-win32.c (do_spawn_with_pipes): Be a bit less
455 restrictive, look for the helper programs in the same folder where
456 the GLib DLL is, not necessarily in a "bin" subfolder of the top
457 GLib installation folder.
459 2008-09-18 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
461 * configure.in: Bump version to 2.19.0
