5 * glib/gdate.c (g_date_set_time_t):
6 (g_date_set_time_val): Add functions to set a date from
7 a time_t and from a GTimeVal.
8 (g_date_set_time): Deprecate. (#314067, Roger Leigh)
11 * tests/utf8-pointer.c: Unit tests for g_utf8_pointer_to_offset
12 and g_utf8_offset_to_pointer.
14 * glib/gutf8.c (g_utf8_pointer_to_offset)
15 (g_utf8_offset_to_pointer): Handle negative offsets, and use
16 "stutter stepping" for going backwards. (#320638, Larry
21 * glib/gthread.c: const correctness fixes, found
22 by Arjan van de Ven and gcc.
24 2005-11-16 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
26 * docs/reference/glib/tmpl/unicode.sgml: Correct typo on mentioning
27 @G_UNICODE_BREAK_UNKNOWN that should be #G_UNICODE_BREAK_UNKNOWN.
29 2005-11-09 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
31 * glib/guniprop.c: Use bit hacks instead when checking a general
32 category value against multiple values.
34 * glib/gutf8.c: Change ISO10646 to Unicode in docs.
36 2005-11-10 Simos Xenitellis <simos@gnome.org>
38 * configure.in: Added tt (Tatar) to ALL_LINGUAS.
40 2005-11-05 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
42 * glib/giowin32.c (g_io_win32_set_flags): Don't call g_warning().
43 (#320688) Instead set error and return failure.
45 2005-11-07 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
47 * glib/gmain.c (g_main_dispatch): Don't call cb_funcs->unref
48 while holding the context lock. (#320886, Andy Wingo)
50 2005-11-07 Billy Biggs <vektor@dumbterm.net>
52 * tests/refcount/Makefile.am: Add a missing reference to libglib
53 in the LDADD for this test.
55 2005-11-07 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
57 * glib/gmem.c (g_allocator_new): We need to set n_preallocs to a
58 nonzero value, otherwise GTK+ 2.8 breaks when compiled against
59 GLib 2.9. (#320755, Luca Ferretti)
61 2005-11-04 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
63 * glib/Makefile.am: Apply a patch from Behdad Esfahbod to
64 use a faster lookup table for g_unichar_get_mirror_char().
65 * glib/gmirroringtable.h: The new table.
66 * glib/gunichartables.h: Remove bidi_mirroring_table.
67 * glib/gen-unicode-tables.pl: Don't generate the mirroring
69 * glib/glib-mirroring-tab/*: Sources for the program
70 which generated gmirroringtable.h.
72 * glib/glist.c: Avoid some code duplication.
74 * glib/gscanner.h: Include gdataset.h. (#320322)
76 * glib/gdebug.h: add new GDebugFlag for fatal_criticals
77 * glib/gmessages.c: (_g_debug_init): handle G_DEBUG=fatal_criticals,
78 to help find critical warnings in applications. (#320017,
81 2005-11-02 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
83 * glib/glib.symbols: Remove large amount of trailing whitespace
84 from one line. Remove #ifdef G_UNDEFINED from around
85 g_hash_table_new and g_hash_table_new_full symbols, what was the
86 purpose of that? Add the g_slice functions.
88 Tue Nov 1 16:24:20 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
90 * glib/gmem.[hc]: prepared deprecation of GMemChunk and GAllocator.
91 added g_slice_*() API to allocate and cache small bits of memory.
92 an actuall allocator implementation for g_slice_*() is still pending.
94 * glib/gthread.[hc]: changes from a patch by Matthias Clasen.
95 changed GRealThread list to use in-structure *next; fields instead
96 of GSList, in order for thread iteration to not depenend on g_slice_*()
98 _g_thread_mem_private_get():
99 _g_thread_mem_private_set(): added accessors for private memory,
100 needed because the ordinary GPrivate implementation relies on GArray
101 and GSList and therefore indirectly on working g_slice_*() allocations.
104 g_thread_foreach(): new public API function to loop over all existing threads.
118 removed GAllocator and free list usages and accompanying locks.
119 use g_slice_*() API to allocate and cache small bits of memory.
121 * glib/ghook.h: removed GMemChunk field from public API.
124 * glib/glist.h: deprecate allocator API, provide _free1() for consistency.
126 * glib/gnode.h: deprecate allocator API.
128 * glib/gmain.c: reordered GPollRec fields so g_slice_free_chain() can
129 be used for poll rec lists.
131 * glib/grel.c: removed mem chunk usage, and allocated tuples via g_slice_*().
132 g_relation_destroy(): free all tuples from the all_tuples hash table,
133 this effectively maintains the life time track keeping of tuples.
134 g_relation_delete_tuple(): free tuples which are removed from the
135 all_tuples hash table. this fixes a temporary leak that was present
136 in the memchunk code until the destruction of the relation.
138 2005-10-29 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
140 * tests/convert-test.c: Add some tests for conversions between
141 UTF-8, UCS-4 and UTF-16.
143 * glib/gutf8.c (g_utf8_to_ucs4, g_utf8_to_utf16): Fix handling
144 of len == -1, noticed by Morten Welinder.
146 2005-10-27 Erdal Ronahi <erdal.ronahi@gmail.com>
148 * configure.in: Added ku (Kurdish) to ALL_LINGUAS
150 2005-10-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
152 * glib/gutf8.c (g_ucs4_to_utf8): Don't set items_read twice
153 in the error case, and add some documentation. (#319806, Morten
156 2005-10-19 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
158 * configure.in: Use AC_CHECK_FUNCS for _NSGetEnviron, to get the
159 config.h symbol automatically. Fixes bug #313731.
161 2005-10-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
163 * glib/gwin32.c (g_win32_get_package_installation_directory):
164 Return a g_strdup()ed copy of the value stored in the hash table,
165 so that it can be g_free()d without leaving a dangling pointer in
166 the hash table. (#319232)
168 2005-10-06 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
170 * glib/gunicollate.c (g_utf8_collate_key_for_filename): Handle
171 all-zero sequences correctly. (#317930, Sebastien Bacher)
173 2005-10-05 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
175 * glib/gmarkup.c (g_markup_escape_text): Doc addition
177 * Makefile.am: Add Collation tests.
179 * tests/collate/*: Inputs and expected outputs for collation tests.
181 * tests/run-collate-tests.sh: Script to run collation tests.
183 * tests/unicode-collate.c (main): Rework slightly to make
184 it usable in unit tests. Also test g_utf8_collate_key_for_filename().
186 2005-10-01 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
188 * docs/reference/glib/tmpl/unicode.sgml:
189 * glib/gen-unicode-tables.pl:
191 * glib/gunichartables.h:
193 * tests/casefold.txt:
194 * tests/casemap.txt: Updated to Unicode 4.1. There are five new
195 GUnicodeBreakType types. That may break some applications, like
198 2005-09-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
200 * glib/gstrfuncs.c (g_ascii_strtoull): Add details to the
201 docs. (#314393, Matthew F. Barnes)
204 * glib/gprintf.h: Remove g_snprintf() and g_vsnprintf(), since
205 they are already declared in glib.h. This doesn't break documented
206 use of gprintf.h, but should probably be pointed out in the
207 release notes for 2.10. (#314232, Behdad Esfahbod)
209 Tue Sep 20 13:16:04 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
211 * glib/gpattern.c (g_pattern_ph_match): applied significant recursion
212 complexity optimization, based on a patch from Matthias Clasen.
214 * tests/patterntest.c: more tests, mostly from matthias.
216 2005-09-20 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
218 * glib/gqueue.c (g_queue_insert_sorted): Correct the docs.
219 (#316703, Mark Drago)
221 Mon Sep 19 17:23:23 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
223 * glib/gpattern.c: applied a patch from matthias which checks on the
224 upper bound of GPatternSpec length to optimize matches.
227 * tests/patterntest.c: added more match cases.
229 2005-09-16 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
231 * glib/gstrfuncs.c (g_ascii_strcasecmp, g_ascii_strncasecmp): Add
232 warning to doc comment that these functions should not be used on
233 encodings like CP932.
235 2005-09-14 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
237 * tests/keyfile-test.c: Add a test for grup names of length 1.
239 * glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_line_is_group): Accept group names
240 of length 1. (#316309)
242 2005-09-12 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
244 * glib/gmarkup.c (g_markup_escape_text): Clarify docs.
246 2005-09-11 Sebastian Wilhelmi <seppi@seppi.de>
248 * tests/refcount/Makefile.am (INCLUDES): Link the the refcount
249 tests to the system thread library $(G_THREAD_LIBS). Fixes #313744
252 2005-09-11 Kjartan Maraas <kmaraas@gnome.org>
254 * glib/gmain.c: (g_child_watch_prepare), (g_child_watch_check),
255 (child_watch_helper_thread): Remove some dead code. Closes
258 2005-09-07 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
260 * glib/Makefile.am: Create also a console version of the
261 gspawn-win32-helper program, gspawn-win32-helper-console.exe.
262 It's otherwise identical to gspawn-win32-helper.exe, except marked
263 as a console application (linked without the -mwindows option).
265 * glib/gspawn-win32.c (do_spawn_directly, do_spawn_with_pipes):
266 Drop the dont_wait parameter. Its truth value correlated 100% with
267 the NULLness of the exit_status parameter anyway, so it's enough
268 to check whether exit_status is NULL. Invert the sense of the
269 dont_return_handle parameter and rename it to do_return_handle, to
270 make the code easier to read by avoiding double negations.
272 (g_spawn_sync_utf8, g_spawn_async_with_pipes_utf8): Modify calls
273 to do_spawn_with_pipes() accordingly.
275 (do_spawn_with_pipes): If we have a console, use the console
276 version of the helper program, otherwise use the GUI one. This
277 avoids extra console windows opening up in some situations. (In
278 case a console application uses the GUI gspawn-win32-helper.exe to
279 spawn another console application we would get a separate console
280 for the spawned console application).
282 * glib-zip.in: Distribute also gspawn-win32-helper-console.exe.
284 2005-09-05 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
286 * glib/gmappedfile.c (g_mapped_file_new): Report an error
287 if the file is too large. (#315275, Kjartan Maraas)
289 * glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_load_from_fd): The return value
290 of read() is signed. (#315273, Kjartan Maraas)
292 2005-08-31 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
294 * glib/gutils.h: Wrapping atexit() is a bad idea on Windows, where
295 the EXE and each DLL have their own atexit function chains.
297 #define g_atexit as atexit instead. This means it has a
298 better chance of doing what the caller wants. For instance,
299 gtkhtml calls g_atexit() registering a function in gtkhtml
300 itself. This caused a crash when g_atexit() was implemented as a
301 function in the GLib DLL. The gtkhtml DLL was already unloaded by
302 the time the GLib DLL got unloaded.
304 * glib/gutils.c: #undef the #define mentioned above, to also get a
305 real g_atexit() into the DLL for backward compatibility. Document
306 the Windows behaviour of g_atexit(), and document the varying ways
307 atexit() can behave in the context of dynamically loaded modules
310 2005-08-31 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
314 * glib/gdataset.c: Add string interning functions.
316 2005-08-28 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
318 * glib/giochannel.c: Unify some near-duplicate strings. (#314654,
321 2005-08-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
323 * configure.in: Bump version to 2.9.0
325 2005-08-25 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
327 Make also the g_spawn*() functions take parameters in the GLib
328 file name encoding, i.e. UTF-8, on Windows. Has no impact on Unix
329 API or ABI. Like the other GLib API that was earlier changed to
330 use UTF-8 on Windows, the names of the functions that take UTF-8
331 have _utf8 suffixes added by using preprocessor macros in the
332 header file. The old names are kept for functions with the old
333 behaviour, taking parameters in the system codepage, for DLL ABI
336 * glib/gspawn.h: On Win32 add the suffix _utf8 to the names of the
337 g_spawn*() functions.
339 * glib/gspawn-win32.c: Use wide-char API on NT-based
340 Windows. Convert parameters from UTF-8 to wide chars (NT) or
341 system codepage (Win9x) and call the C library _wspawn*() or
342 spawn*() functions respectvely. Add DLL ABI stability versions
343 that take parameters in the system codepage.
345 * glib/gspawn-win32-helper.c: On NT-based Windows use the
346 wide-char versions of argv and envp, and use wide-char API to
347 change directory and spawn the program to run. Remove the verbose
348 debugging output, it was too complex to modify for the wide-char
349 features. (Just add temporary debugging printouts if needed, no
350 need to have them permanently in the source.)
352 * glib/gspawn.c: Corresponding documentation updates.
354 * glib/glib.symbols: Corresponding changes: Mark the ABI stability
355 symbols as PRIVATE, add the new _utf8-suffixed ones.
357 2005-08-24 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
359 * glib/gtypes.h (G_MININT64): Cast the constant to gint64; it is
360 guint64 otherwise and that can produce warnings about comparison
361 between signed and unsigned.
363 2005-08-23 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
365 * glib/gutils.c: Fix the crt_externs.h include.
367 2005-08-23 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
369 * NEWS: Fix spelling of my first name.
371 2005-08-23 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
375 * === Released 2.8.1 ===
379 2005-08-20 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>
381 * glib/makefile.msc.in : link with ws2_32.lib
383 2005-08-18 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
385 * configure.in: Check for <sys/wait.h>
387 * glib/gbacktrace.c: Include <sys/wait.h> on if HAVE_SYS_WAIT_H.
389 2005-08-18 Ross Burton <ross@burtonini.com>
392 Optimise single-character insertions.
397 * tests/string-test.c:
398 Add tests for new optimisation, and fix a leak.
400 2005-08-17 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
402 * configure.in: Check for crt_externs.h and _NSGetEnviron.
404 * glib/gutils.c: On Darwin, include crt-externs.h and
405 define environ using _NSGetEnviron(). (#313731)
407 2005-08-16 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
409 * glib/gutils.c (g_get_any_init): Move the body of the big if...
410 (g_get_any_init_do): ... to this new function.
411 (g_get_any_init): Declare as inline.
412 (g_get_any_init_locked): New inline function, does the locking.
413 Make use of these two throughout the code.
415 2005-08-15 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
417 * glib/gbacktrace.c (g_on_error_stack_trace): Wait for
418 the child process and then simply return. This makes
419 The "S" option work as documented in g_on_error_query().
420 (#313125, Matthew F. Barnes)
422 * glib/gunicode.h: Update the link to Unicode category
423 values. (#313369, Behnam Esfahbod)
425 * glib/gqueue.c (g_queue_find_custom): Clarify docs
426 a little. (#311727, Tristan van Berkom)
428 * glib/abicheck.sh, gobject/abicheck.sh: Make the
429 check work on ia64 too, where some symbols ended up
430 in yet another section.
