17 Bug 552861 – glib-2.0.m4 calls system(3) without storing its result
19 * m4macros/glib-2.0.m4: Cosmetic change to make -Werror happy.
20 Patch by Andreas Köhler
22 2008-10-08 Christian Persch <chpe@gnome.org>
24 Bug 555313 – GFileAttribute boxed type get_type function should
25 use usual get_type pattern
27 * gio/gfileattribute.c (g_file_attribute_info_list_get_type): Use
28 g_once_init_enter/leave.
30 2008-10-08 Christian Persch <chpe@gnome.org>
32 Bug 555314 – mem leak in gmarkup
34 * glib/gmarkup.c: (g_markup_parse_context_parse): Plug a mem leak.
36 2008-10-08 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
38 Bug 554790 - g_convert() misbehaves with winiconv versions
40 * glib/win_iconv.c (kernel_mbtowc): If converting from ASCII,
41 explicitly check for and reject 8bit chars. MultiByteToWideChar()
42 doesn't, at least not on XP.
44 2008-10-06 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
46 * glib/gtypes.h: Properly include gmacros.h
48 2008-10-06 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
50 Bug 555309 – giochannel breaks on error
51 Patch from Christian Persch
53 * glib/giounix.c (g_io_unix_read), (g_io_unix_write),
54 (g_io_unix_seek), (g_io_unix_close), (g_io_unix_set_flags):
55 Don't shadow err. Oops!
57 2008-10-06 Christophe Fergeau <teuf@gnome.org>
59 Bug 555224 – Improve g_format_size_for_display doc
61 * glib/gfileutils.c: change g_format_size_for_display API doc to
62 explicitly say that the returned string has to be freed. Change
63 spelling of "newly allocated" to "newly-allocated" in g_file_read_link
64 API doc to be more consistent with what is done in that file.
66 2008-10-01 David Zeuthen <davidz@redhat.com>
68 * README.in: Add "Notes about glib 2.20" section detailing the
69 ramifications of the patch from bug #528670.
71 2008-09-30 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
73 Bug 554092 – glib doesn't return G_FILE_ERROR_NOENT et al on OS X
75 * glib/giounix.c (g_io_unix_read), (g_io_unix_write),
76 (g_io_unix_seek), (g_io_unix_close), (g_io_unix_set_flags),
77 (g_io_unix_get_flags), (g_io_channel_new_file):
78 Like mclasen says: "well, thats the way errno works...,
79 save it or loose it". Save errno.
81 2008-09-30 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
84 * glib/tests/Makefile.am: Bypass gtester related stuff on Windows.
86 2008-09-30 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
89 * glib/gnulib/vasnprintf.c: Don't define _GNU_SOURCE on Windows,
90 as _GNU_SOURCE has unintended side effects when compiling against
93 2008-09-26 Dan Winship <danw@gnome.org>
95 Bug 553447 – g_assert_no_error()
97 * glib/gtestutils.h (g_assert_no_error, g_assert_error): Macros to
98 assert that a GError is not set, or else is set to a particular
101 * glib/gtestutils.c (g_assertion_message_error): utility for
104 * glib/tests/keyfile.c:
105 * tests/asyncqueue-test.c:
106 * tests/bookmarkfile-test.c:
107 * tests/convert-test.c:
108 * tests/file-test.c: Use g_assert_error/g_assert_no_error
110 2008-09-26 Dan Winship <danw@gnome.org>
112 * glib/gthreadpool.c (wakeup_thread_marker): make this a "const
113 gpointer" rather than a gconstpointer to avoid warnings later
115 * glib/pcre/pcre_ucp_searchfuncs.c:
116 * glib/pcre/pcre_valid_utf8.c: #include "config.h"
118 * glib/tests/printf.c (test_d): fool gcc into not warning about
119 some printf format strings that we know are dubious
121 2008-09-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
123 Bug 553857 – gbacktrace.h requires signal.h
125 * glib/gbacktrace.h: Include signal.h for raise().
126 Pointed out by Sebastien Bacher
128 2008-09-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
130 Bug 553724 – python interpretter path not patched in correctly
132 * glib/Makefile.am: Fix the sed magic to replace python.
134 2008-09-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
136 * glib/gmain.c: Add some more docs.
138 * glib/giochannel.c: Move more docs inline, and improve them
141 2008-09-25 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
143 Bug 553820 - gpoll.c: undeclared identifier
146 * glib/gpoll.c: Make the g_poll() function non-static also on
147 Windows. Prefix an underscore to the g_main_poll_debug variable
148 and make it non-static in gmain.c so that it can be used in
149 gpoll.c. Add back missing variable declaration.
151 2008-09-25 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
153 * glib/gspawn-win32.c (do_spawn_with_pipes) (do_spawn_directly):
154 Just ignore the child_setup function, never call it. The is no
155 situation in which it could be useful on Windows. Do print a
156 warning, like before.
158 * glib/gspawn.c (g_spawn_async_with_pipes): Corresponding change
161 2008-09-24 Sven Herzberg <sven@imendio.com>
163 Be a little more explcit in the docs. Includes Owen's requested
166 * glib/gmain.c: improved documentation for g_source_attach() and
169 2008-09-23 Michael Natterer <mitch@imendio.com>
171 * glib/glib.h: #include <glib/gpoll.h>
173 * glib/gpoll.h: #error out if gpoll.h is included directly.
175 * glib/gpoll.c: remove trailing whitespace.
177 2008-09-23 Dan Winship <danw@gnome.org>
179 * glib/gpoll.[ch] (g_poll): Move this out of gmain.c and make it part
180 of the public API. (Part of Bug 505361 - gunixinputstream.c assumes
183 2008-09-23 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
185 * glib/gmain.c (poll_rest) [Win32]: Fix embarrassing bug: I was
186 passing an incorrect third parameter to memmove(), had forgotten
187 to multiply by the size of the table entry. Just use a for loop
188 instead, clearer. Odd I didn't notice when testing this code.

192 Rewrite most of GHashTable to use open addressing with quadratic
193 probing instead of chaining. This has the potential to reduce memory
194 fragmentation significantly, while being slightly faster due to
195 better locality and no need to call alloc/free functions for nodes.
196 Benchmarks suggest it also uses less memory overall.
198 * glib/ghash.c (prime_mod): Table of suitable primes for
199 initial-probe distribution.
200 (g_hash_table_set_shift): New function.
201 (g_hash_table_find_closest_shift): New function.
202 (g_hash_table_set_shift_from_size): New function.
203 (g_hash_table_lookup_node_for_insertion): New function.
204 (g_hash_table_lookup_node): Rewritten to return node index instead of
205 pointer, use quadratic probe on flat table, and not return insertion
206 data. The latter saves some computation for read-only lookups.
207 (g_hash_table_remove_node): Rewrite to take a pointer directly to the
208 node structure to remove, and clear that. Remove unlinking code.
209 (g_hash_table_remove_all_nodes): Rewrite to not clear nodes
210 individually, but en masse using memset () after potentially calling
212 (iter_remove_or_steal): Use new data structure and algorithm. Vastly
213 simplified - now just a call to g_hash_table_remove_node ().
214 (g_hash_table_resize): New resize code, re-indexing with new prime
215 and cleaning up tombstones.
216 (g_hash_table_maybe_resize): Table may hold 8 buckets minimum, no less
217 than 1/4 load excluding tombstones, and no more than 15/16 load
218 including tombstones. These numbers are the results of a lot of
219 benchmarking with multiple complex applications, and should not be
221 (g_hash_table_iter_next)
222 (g_hash_table_lookup)
223 (g_hash_table_lookup_extended)
224 (g_hash_table_insert_internal)
225 (g_hash_table_remove_internal)
226 (g_hash_table_foreach_remove_or_steal)
227 (g_hash_table_foreach)
229 (g_hash_table_get_keys)
230 (g_hash_table_get_values): Use new data structure and algorithm,
231 fairly trivial changes.
233 2008-09-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
235 * glib-zip.in: Look for man pages in share/man.
237 * glib/gutils.c (_glib_get_dll_directory)
238 * glib/gspawn-win32.c (do_spawn_with_pipes): Be a bit less
239 restrictive, look for the helper programs in the same folder where
240 the GLib DLL is, not necessarily in a "bin" subfolder of the top
241 GLib installation folder.
243 2008-09-18 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
245 * configure.in: Bump version to 2.19.0
247 * ChangeLog.pre-2-18: rotate ChangeLog
