3 * glib/gtypes.h: Properly include gmacros.h
5 2008-10-06 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
7 Bug 555309 – giochannel breaks on error
8 Patch from Christian Persch
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 Don't shadow err. Oops!
14 2008-10-06 Christophe Fergeau <teuf@gnome.org>
16 Bug 555224 – Improve g_format_size_for_display doc
18 * glib/gfileutils.c: change g_format_size_for_display API doc to
19 explicitly say that the returned string has to be freed. Change
20 spelling of "newly allocated" to "newly-allocated" in g_file_read_link
21 API doc to be more consistent with what is done in that file.
23 2008-10-01 David Zeuthen <davidz@redhat.com>
25 * README.in: Add "Notes about glib 2.20" section detailing the
26 ramifications of the patch from bug #528670.

30 Bug 554092 – glib doesn't return G_FILE_ERROR_NOENT et al on OS X
32 * glib/giounix.c (g_io_unix_read), (g_io_unix_write),
33 (g_io_unix_seek), (g_io_unix_close), (g_io_unix_set_flags),
34 (g_io_unix_get_flags), (g_io_channel_new_file):
35 Like mclasen says: "well, thats the way errno works...,
36 save it or loose it". Save errno.

41 * glib/tests/Makefile.am: Bypass gtester related stuff on Windows.
43 2008-09-30 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
46 * glib/gnulib/vasnprintf.c: Don't define _GNU_SOURCE on Windows,
47 as _GNU_SOURCE has unintended side effects when compiling against
50 2008-09-26 Dan Winship <danw@gnome.org>
52 Bug 553447 – g_assert_no_error()
54 * glib/gtestutils.h (g_assert_no_error, g_assert_error): Macros to
55 assert that a GError is not set, or else is set to a particular
58 * glib/gtestutils.c (g_assertion_message_error): utility for
61 * glib/tests/keyfile.c:
62 * tests/asyncqueue-test.c:
63 * tests/bookmarkfile-test.c:
64 * tests/convert-test.c:
65 * tests/file-test.c: Use g_assert_error/g_assert_no_error
67 2008-09-26 Dan Winship <danw@gnome.org>
69 * glib/gthreadpool.c (wakeup_thread_marker): make this a "const
70 gpointer" rather than a gconstpointer to avoid warnings later
72 * glib/pcre/pcre_ucp_searchfuncs.c:
73 * glib/pcre/pcre_valid_utf8.c: #include "config.h"
75 * glib/tests/printf.c (test_d): fool gcc into not warning about
76 some printf format strings that we know are dubious
78 2008-09-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
80 Bug 553857 – gbacktrace.h requires signal.h
82 * glib/gbacktrace.h: Include signal.h for raise().
83 Pointed out by Sebastien Bacher
85 2008-09-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
87 Bug 553724 – python interpretter path not patched in correctly
89 * glib/Makefile.am: Fix the sed magic to replace python.
91 2008-09-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
93 * glib/gmain.c: Add some more docs.
95 * glib/giochannel.c: Move more docs inline, and improve them
98 2008-09-25 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
100 Bug 553820 - gpoll.c: undeclared identifier
103 * glib/gpoll.c: Make the g_poll() function non-static also on
104 Windows. Prefix an underscore to the g_main_poll_debug variable
105 and make it non-static in gmain.c so that it can be used in
106 gpoll.c. Add back missing variable declaration.
108 2008-09-25 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
110 * glib/gspawn-win32.c (do_spawn_with_pipes) (do_spawn_directly):
111 Just ignore the child_setup function, never call it. The is no
112 situation in which it could be useful on Windows. Do print a
113 warning, like before.
115 * glib/gspawn.c (g_spawn_async_with_pipes): Corresponding change
118 2008-09-24 Sven Herzberg <sven@imendio.com>
120 Be a little more explcit in the docs. Includes Owen's requested
123 * glib/gmain.c: improved documentation for g_source_attach() and
126 2008-09-23 Michael Natterer <mitch@imendio.com>
128 * glib/glib.h: #include <glib/gpoll.h>
130 * glib/gpoll.h: #error out if gpoll.h is included directly.
132 * glib/gpoll.c: remove trailing whitespace.
134 2008-09-23 Dan Winship <danw@gnome.org>
136 * glib/gpoll.[ch] (g_poll): Move this out of gmain.c and make it part
137 of the public API. (Part of Bug 505361 - gunixinputstream.c assumes
140 2008-09-23 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
142 * glib/gmain.c (poll_rest) [Win32]: Fix embarrassing bug: I was
143 passing an incorrect third parameter to memmove(), had forgotten
144 to multiply by the size of the table entry. Just use a for loop
145 instead, clearer. Odd I didn't notice when testing this code.

149 Rewrite most of GHashTable to use open addressing with quadratic
150 probing instead of chaining. This has the potential to reduce memory
151 fragmentation significantly, while being slightly faster due to
152 better locality and no need to call alloc/free functions for nodes.
153 Benchmarks suggest it also uses less memory overall.
155 * glib/ghash.c (prime_mod): Table of suitable primes for
156 initial-probe distribution.
157 (g_hash_table_set_shift): New function.
158 (g_hash_table_find_closest_shift): New function.
159 (g_hash_table_set_shift_from_size): New function.
160 (g_hash_table_lookup_node_for_insertion): New function.
161 (g_hash_table_lookup_node): Rewritten to return node index instead of
162 pointer, use quadratic probe on flat table, and not return insertion
163 data. The latter saves some computation for read-only lookups.
164 (g_hash_table_remove_node): Rewrite to take a pointer directly to the
165 node structure to remove, and clear that. Remove unlinking code.
166 (g_hash_table_remove_all_nodes): Rewrite to not clear nodes
167 individually, but en masse using memset () after potentially calling
169 (iter_remove_or_steal): Use new data structure and algorithm. Vastly
170 simplified - now just a call to g_hash_table_remove_node ().
171 (g_hash_table_resize): New resize code, re-indexing with new prime
172 and cleaning up tombstones.
173 (g_hash_table_maybe_resize): Table may hold 8 buckets minimum, no less
174 than 1/4 load excluding tombstones, and no more than 15/16 load
175 including tombstones. These numbers are the results of a lot of
176 benchmarking with multiple complex applications, and should not be

180 (g_hash_table_lookup_extended)

184 (g_hash_table_foreach)
186 (g_hash_table_get_keys)
187 (g_hash_table_get_values): Use new data structure and algorithm,
188 fairly trivial changes.
190 2008-09-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
192 * glib-zip.in: Look for man pages in share/man.
194 * glib/gutils.c (_glib_get_dll_directory)
195 * glib/gspawn-win32.c (do_spawn_with_pipes): Be a bit less
196 restrictive, look for the helper programs in the same folder where
197 the GLib DLL is, not necessarily in a "bin" subfolder of the top
198 GLib installation folder.

202 * configure.in: Bump version to 2.19.0
