        removed warning about g_thread_init() being called after other glib
        functions (in particular g_slice* calls), because GSlice can cope
        with this now and the rest of glib is believed to cope as well.

        * tests/slice-threadinit.c: new test program which tests GSlice working
        across g_thread_init() calls.

2007-07-10  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gthread.[hc]: implemented g_once_init_enter(),
        g_once_init_enter_impl() and g_once_init_leave(), based on a patch by
        Antoine Tremblay, fixes #65041.
        adapted exported inline function mechanism from gutils.[hc] for inlining
        g_once_init_enter_impl() in gthread.[hc].

2007-07-09  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * NEWS: Updates

2007-07-09  Loïc Minier  <lool@dooz.org>

        * tests/refcount/closures.c: (main): Output newlines after thousand
        iterations of the inner-loop of the closures test; this helps having
        smaller lines and continuously outputting new lines.  (#447048).

2007-07-09  Ryan Lortie  <desrt@desrt.ca>

        * glib/gfileutils.c (write_to_temp_file): save errno to prevent it
        being clobbered by call to g_filename_display_name().  Bug #453796.

2007-07-09  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * m4macros/glib-gettext.m4: Fix a small problem with
        msgfmt -c detection.  (#341988, Laszlo Peter)

        * glib/gmarkup.c (g_markup_parse_context_end_parse): Handle
        all states.  (#454473)

2007-07-06  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

        * glib/giowin32.c (g_io_win32_check): When WSAEnumNetworkEvents()
        signals FD_CONNECT that means that the connection attempt
        finished, either successfully or failed. Test explicitly whether
        the connnection succeeded and set either G_IO_OUT if it did,
        G_IO_ERR|G_IO_HUP if it failed.

        Make sure we never set both G_IO_OUT and G_IO_HUP simultaneously
        because in Unix poll(2) POLLOUT and POLLHUP are mutually
        exclusive.

        Ignore whether the caller wants to watch G_IO_HUP or not. Always
        select for FD_CLOSE because Unix poll(2) also ignores whether
        POLLHUP in set the requested events bitmask or not.

        * glib/gstring.c: Restore old behaviour of 
        g_string_append_vprintf: g_vasprintf seems to be faster
        than g_printf_string_upper_bound (#57693).

2007-06-18  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gstring.[ch] (g_string_printf_internal): Improve
        performance by removing the use of an intermediate g_malloc'd

        that doesn't work in XP SP2 even.

2007-06-06  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gutils.c (g_get_user_special_dir): Fall back to

2007-05-17  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        a doc typo.  (#439232, Vincent Untz)

2007-05-17  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

2007-05-13  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

        * glib/gwin32.h: Drop the pipe() macro. Defining macros outside of
        its namespace that look like POSIX functions is not GLib's
        business in my opinion. This means pipe()-using code that has
        relied on this definition will need changing to call _pipe() on
        Windows, and make the decision itself on what size pipe buffer to
        use, and whether to use text or binary mode, and whether the pipe
        handles should be inheritable or not.

        * glib/gspawn-win32.c (make_pipe): Use _pipe() instead of pipe().

        * glib/gsequence.c (struct _GSequence): Add a new 'real_sequence'
        field.
        (g_sequence_new): Initialize real_sequence to the sequence
        (g_sequence_sort_iter): Set real_sequence of the temporary
        sequence to the real sequence.
        (g_sequence_sort_changed_iter): Same
        (g_sequence_insert_sorted_iter): Same
        (g_sequence_search_iter): Same
        (g_sequence_iter_get_sequence): Return real_sequence

        * tests/sequence-test.c (compare_iters): Insert assertions that
        the iters point to the sequence being manipulated.

2007-02-03  Soren Sandmann <sandmann@daimi.au.dk>

        * glib/gsequence.[ch]: New files implementing GSequence, a list
        implemented using a binary tree.
        * glib/glib.h, glib/glib.symbols: Update for GSequence.

        the GSequence API.

2007-01-30  Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/glib.symbols:
        * glib/gslice.h:
        * glib/gslice.c: Don't make ABI depend on G_ENABLE_DEBUG,
        just add an empty g_slice_debug_tree_statistics () implementation
        in the !G_ENABLE_DEBUG case.

2007-01-26  Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * configure.in: Define G_GNUC_INTERNAL for Sun Studio
        as __hidden.  (#342981, Brian Cameron)

        * glib/gconvert.c:
        * glib/gutf8.c: Move G_GNUC_INTERNAL uses to the right
        spot.

2007-01-26  Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * gmem.c:
        * gslice.c:
        * gmessages.c:

        non-static.

2007-01-24  Benjamin Otte <otte@gnome.org>

        * glib/gprintf.c (g_sprintf): Clarify the documentation
        regarding overflows (wording by Jan Schmidt)

2007-01-23  Roozbeh Pournader  <roozbeh@farsiweb.info>

        keyword in bugzilla. (#396899)

2007-01-23  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gutf8.c (g_utf8_get_char_validated): Clarify
        the behaviour is max_len is zero.  (#400044,
        Benjamin Dauvergne)

2007-01-23  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/goption.c (print_help): Use bitwise &
        when operating on flags.  (#399971, Jon Oberheide)

2007-01-19  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        Some file list updates (#398069, Owen Taylor)

        * glib/gwin32.c
        * glibconfig.h.win32.in
        * README.win32: More minor tweaks for Digital Mars
        compiler. (#346808, Serhat Sevki Dincer)

2007-01-17  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

        * glib-zip.in: DLLs are always installed in "bin" with current
        libtool, drop unnecessary logic to check where they are. Include
        also the COPYING file.

2007-01-17  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

        * glib/galloca.h: Use <malloc.h> also with Digital Mars compiler
        on Win32. (#346808, Serhat Sevki Dincer)

2007-01-16  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gthread.h:
        * glib/gthread.c:
        * glib/glib.symbols: Revert an accidental ABI break by
        moving gettime out of the GThreadFunctions struct and making
        it a separate variable.  (#397139, Joe Marcus Clarke)

        * gthread/*.c: Adapt.

2007-01-16  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

        * glib/gthread.c (gettime): GetSystemTimeAsFileTime() returns 100s
        of nanoseconds since 1601, so offset to Unix epoch (1970) and
        multiply by 100 to get nanoseconds which is what we want.

2007-01-15  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

        * glib/gmain.h (struct _GPollFD): Fix mistake in my last commit.

2005-01-15  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/giochannel.c:
        * glib/gbookmarkfile.c: Remove redundant NULL-checks.
        (#369668, Morten Welinder)

2005-01-15  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gthread.c:
        * gthread/gthread-posix.c: Correct the gettime calculations
        once more.  (#395203, Chris Wilson)

2007-01-15  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

        * glib/gmain.h (struct _GPollFD): Prepare for potential Win64
        build: Use gint64 for the fd field on Win64, as we want to be able
        to store a HANDLE in it. (#395422) (Other changes will surely also
        be necessary when building on Win64, at least in giowin32.c.)

2007-01-15  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

        * glib/gwin32.c (g_win32_getlocale): Simplify greatly. Instead of
        hardcoding a large switch statement, just ask Windows for the
        ISO639 and ISO3166 codes. Tack on @Latn or @Cyrl for those
        languages which can alternatively be written in Latin or
        Cyrillic. Fixes #395419.

2007-01-12  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gkeyfile.c: Rework the handling of invalid
        keys/groups again. We are back to being liberal about
        what we accept, and only reject things that would lead
        to non-rereadable keyfiles.

        * tests/keyfile-test.c: Adapt tests.

2007-01-12  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gutils.c (g_get_home_dir): Clarify docs.  (#394687,

2007-01-12  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * gthread/gthread-posix.c:
        * glib/gtimer.c:
        * glib/gthread.c: Fix errors in the recently moved
        time calculations.  (#395203, Chris Wilson)

2007-01-10  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * configure.in: Actually link gthread against librt.
        (#394641, Marco Pesenti Gritti)

2007-01-10  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_is_key_name): Grr, allow '*' in keys,
        too.  (#394262)

2007-01-09  Behdad Esfahbod  <behdad@gnome.org>

        * glib/gutils.h: Use a more optimized g_bit_storage() when gcc is
        available.  (#371670, Daniel Elstner)

2007-01-08  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * gthread/gthread-posix.c (g_thread_impl_init): Don't
        use _SC_MONOTONIC_CLOCK unless USE_CLOCK_GETTIME is
        defined.  (#394150)

2007-01-07  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        Don't link glib against libpthread.  (#393812)

        * configure.in: Link gthread against librt, not glib itself.

        * glib/gthread.h:
        * glib/gthread.c: Add a new thread function, gettime.

        * glib/gtimer.c: Use gettime instead of directly working with
        the various system interfaces.

        * gthread/gthread-impl.c:
        * gthread/gthread-posix.c:
        * gthread/gthread-win32.c: Implement gettime.

2007-01-07  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * m4macros/glib-2.0.m4: Use PKG_PROG_PKG_CONFIG.  (#392636,
        Yevgen Muntyan)

2007-01-07  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

        * glib/giowin32.c: Handle GIOChannels for file descriptors
        connected to the console separately. This would typically be the
        fd 0, 1, or 2 (if not redirected) in a console application. For
        such fds we don't need a separate thread, as console HANDLEs are
        waitable objects. (#359202, Michiel de Hoon)

2007-01-04  Behdad Esfahbod  <behdad@gnome.org>

        * tests/bit-test.c (builtin_bit_nth_lsf1), (builtin_bit_nth_lsf2),
        (builtin_bit_nth_msf): Fix tests on x86_64.

2007-01-03  Behdad Esfahbod  <behdad@gnome.org>

        * glib/goption.c (_g_unichar_get_width), (_g_utf8_strwidth),
        (calculate_max_length), (print_entry), (print_help): Take zerowidth
        and double-width chars into consideration when computing width of a
        string.  Also fix another bug in width computation. (#346955)

        * glib/guniprop.c (g_unichar_iszerowidth): Fix typo.  It was not
        working correctly.

2007-01-03  Behdad Esfahbod  <behdad@gnome.org>

        * glib/glib.symbols:
        * glib/gunicode.h:
        * glib/guniprop.c: Add g_unichar_iszerowidth(). (#347645)

2007-01-03  Behdad Esfahbod  <behdad@gnome.org>

        * glib/gutils.h: Fix bug in g_bit_nth_lsf (#371631) and use
        __builtin_clzl for g_bit_storage if available (#371670).

        * tests/Makefile.am:
        * tests/bit-test.c: New test, to test g_bit_* operations against
        naive and builtin implementations.

2007-01-02  Behdad Esfahbod  <behdad@gnome.org>

        * configure.in: Avoid more warnings from running libtool --config.
        (#391364)

2007-01-03  Michael Natterer  <mitch@imendio.com>

        * removed all .cvsignore files. SVN doesn't need them.

2007-01-02  Emmanuele Bassi  <ebassi@gnome.org>

        * glib/gbookmarkfile.c (expand_exec_line): Add support for
        expanding the desktop entry spec variables %U (list of URIs)
        and %F (list of filenames), so that using the command line
        from the Exec and TryExec key of a desktop entry file works
        as intended.

2007-01-02  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * configure.in: Avoid warnings from running libtool --config.
        (#391364, Loïc Minier)

2007-01-02  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gbookmarkfile.c (g_bookmark_file_get_app_info):

2007-01-02  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/glib.symbols: Guard g_slice_debug_tree_statistics
        by G_ENABLE_DEBUG.  (#390940, Kazuki Iwamoto)

2007-01-02  Michael Natterer  <mitch@imendio.com>

        * configure.in
        * Makefile.am: remove references to build/ until a proper decision
        has been made what to do with it.

2007-01-01  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib-gettextize.in: Silence autoconf warnings about
        datarootdir.  (#391367, Loïc Minier)

2006-12-31  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gslice.c: Fix some C99isms.  (#390913, Kazuki Iwamoto)

Fri Dec 29 13:28:07 2006  Tim Janik  <timj@imendio.com>

        * glib/gslice.c: turned detection of too late g_thread_init() calls
        into a warning. this is a temporary work-around for some head-room
        to fix affected programs, memory corruption still occours regardless.

2006-12-29  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * tests/gobject/Makefile.am:
        * tests/gobject/dynamictype.c: New test for dynamic type
        registration macros.

Thu Dec 28 21:14:45 2006  Tim Janik  <timj@imendio.com>

        * glib/gslice.c: removed pthread-dependant debugging bits, the code
        was already converted to GMutex. this obsoletes Tor's recent fixups.

2006-12-28  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

        * glib/gutils.h (G_WIN32_DLLMAIN_FOR_DLL_NAME)
        * glib/gutils.c (get_windows_directory_root): : Use only the wide
        character API here, too.

        * glib/gslice.c: Make it compile on Win32 without pthreads: Use a
        Win32 critical section instead.

        * glib/gmessages.c (g_logv): On Win32, if we get a fatal error
        message while being debugged we break into the debugger with
        G_BREAKPOINT(). Don't call abort() if the user is foolhardy enough
        to continue after the breakpoint. The user presumably knows what
        he is doing and deserves what he gets. (#376645, Andreas Köhler)

Thu Dec 28 12:50:31 2006  Tim Janik  <timj@imendio.com>

        * glib/gslice.h, glib/gslice.c: implemented static debugging
        hash-tree to validate slice adresses and sizes with G_SLICE=debug-blocks.
        use abort() to exit in mem_error() to allow catching of these in gdb.
        abort programs with a descriptive error message if g_thread_init() is
        called after GSlice was in use. previously this just silently corrupted
        the magazines.

        * glib/ghash.c (struct _GHashNode): reordered fields to keep 8-byte
        pointer alignment on 64bit systems and request smaller slice sizes
        on 32bit systems.

        * tests/slice-test.c: support '~' option flag to introduce slice
        allocation/release corruption with a significant probability. this
        allowes testing of G_SLICE=debug-blocks.

2006-12-27  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

2006-12-27  Ryan Lortie  <desrt@desrt.ca>

        * glib/ghash.c: cache the value of the hash function
        in the GHashNode.  this speeds up resizing the hash
        table and it also allows a slight optimisation on
        lookups.  (#388332)

2006-12-27  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gunicollate.c (g_utf8_collate_key): Don't modify

        return which was removed as dead code a while ago.
        icc may consider it dead, but gcc doesn't like non-void
        functions without a return...  (#354707)

2006-12-18  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        variants.  (#338134, Federico Mena Quintero)

        * configure.in: Make montonic clock test work again. Does
        AC_COMPILE_IFELSE not get confdefs ? Also, move the clock

        Remove support for Windows 9x/ME, as will be done also in Pango
        and GTK+. GTK+ hasn't worked on Win9x since 2.6 or 2.8 anyway, so
        it's pretty pointless to keep the Win9x code in here either. If
        somebody is interested, the code can always be found in older GLib
        versions, and in CVS.

        * glib/gdir.c
        * glib/gfileutils.c
        * glib/gspawn-win32-helper.c

        * glib/gutils.c
        * glib/gwin32.c
        * glib/gwin32.h: Remove the G_WIN32_IS_NT_BASED() and
        G_WIN32_HAVE_WIDECHAR_API() tests and their false (Win9x)
        branches, and any variables or static functions used only by the
        Win9x branches.

        * glib/gwin32.c (g_win32_windows_version_init): Call g_error() if
        run on Win9x.

2006-08-27  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gutils.h:

        * glib/gconvert.c (g_filename_display_name): Adjust callers.

        * glib/gkeyfile.c: Use _g_utf8_make_valid() in a number of
