3 Bug 555309 – giochannel breaks on error
4 Patch from Christian Persch
6 * glib/giounix.c (g_io_unix_read), (g_io_unix_write),
7 (g_io_unix_seek), (g_io_unix_close), (g_io_unix_set_flags):
8 Don't shadow err. Oops!

12 Bug 555224 – Improve g_format_size_for_display doc
14 * glib/gfileutils.c: change g_format_size_for_display API doc to
15 explicitly say that the returned string has to be freed. Change
16 spelling of "newly allocated" to "newly-allocated" in g_file_read_link
17 API doc to be more consistent with what is done in that file.
19 2008-10-01 David Zeuthen <davidz@redhat.com>
21 * README.in: Add "Notes about glib 2.20" section detailing the
22 ramifications of the patch from bug #528670.

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

37 * glib/tests/Makefile.am: Bypass gtester related stuff on Windows.
39 2008-09-30 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
42 * glib/gnulib/vasnprintf.c: Don't define _GNU_SOURCE on Windows,
43 as _GNU_SOURCE has unintended side effects when compiling against
46 2008-09-26 Dan Winship <danw@gnome.org>
48 Bug 553447 – g_assert_no_error()
50 * glib/gtestutils.h (g_assert_no_error, g_assert_error): Macros to
51 assert that a GError is not set, or else is set to a particular
54 * glib/gtestutils.c (g_assertion_message_error): utility for
57 * glib/tests/keyfile.c:
58 * tests/asyncqueue-test.c:
59 * tests/bookmarkfile-test.c:
60 * tests/convert-test.c:
61 * tests/file-test.c: Use g_assert_error/g_assert_no_error
63 2008-09-26 Dan Winship <danw@gnome.org>
65 * glib/gthreadpool.c (wakeup_thread_marker): make this a "const
66 gpointer" rather than a gconstpointer to avoid warnings later
68 * glib/pcre/pcre_ucp_searchfuncs.c:
69 * glib/pcre/pcre_valid_utf8.c: #include "config.h"
71 * glib/tests/printf.c (test_d): fool gcc into not warning about
72 some printf format strings that we know are dubious
74 2008-09-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
76 Bug 553857 – gbacktrace.h requires signal.h
78 * glib/gbacktrace.h: Include signal.h for raise().
79 Pointed out by Sebastien Bacher

83 Bug 553724 – python interpretter path not patched in correctly
85 * glib/Makefile.am: Fix the sed magic to replace python.
87 2008-09-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
89 * glib/gmain.c: Add some more docs.
91 * glib/giochannel.c: Move more docs inline, and improve them
94 2008-09-25 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
96 Bug 553820 - gpoll.c: undeclared identifier
99 * glib/gpoll.c: Make the g_poll() function non-static also on
100 Windows. Prefix an underscore to the g_main_poll_debug variable
101 and make it non-static in gmain.c so that it can be used in
102 gpoll.c. Add back missing variable declaration.
104 2008-09-25 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
106 * glib/gspawn-win32.c (do_spawn_with_pipes) (do_spawn_directly):
107 Just ignore the child_setup function, never call it. The is no
108 situation in which it could be useful on Windows. Do print a
109 warning, like before.
111 * glib/gspawn.c (g_spawn_async_with_pipes): Corresponding change
114 2008-09-24 Sven Herzberg <sven@imendio.com>
116 Be a little more explcit in the docs. Includes Owen's requested
119 * glib/gmain.c: improved documentation for g_source_attach() and
122 2008-09-23 Michael Natterer <mitch@imendio.com>
124 * glib/glib.h: #include <glib/gpoll.h>
126 * glib/gpoll.h: #error out if gpoll.h is included directly.
128 * glib/gpoll.c: remove trailing whitespace.
130 2008-09-23 Dan Winship <danw@gnome.org>
132 * glib/gpoll.[ch] (g_poll): Move this out of gmain.c and make it part
133 of the public API. (Part of Bug 505361 - gunixinputstream.c assumes
136 2008-09-23 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
138 * glib/gmain.c (poll_rest) [Win32]: Fix embarrassing bug: I was
139 passing an incorrect third parameter to memmove(), had forgotten
140 to multiply by the size of the table entry. Just use a for loop
141 instead, clearer. Odd I didn't notice when testing this code.

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

175 (g_hash_table_lookup)
176 (g_hash_table_lookup_extended)

178 (g_hash_table_remove_internal)
179 (g_hash_table_foreach_remove_or_steal)
180 (g_hash_table_foreach)
182 (g_hash_table_get_keys)
183 (g_hash_table_get_values): Use new data structure and algorithm,
184 fairly trivial changes.
186 2008-09-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
188 * glib-zip.in: Look for man pages in share/man.
190 * glib/gutils.c (_glib_get_dll_directory)
191 * glib/gspawn-win32.c (do_spawn_with_pipes): Be a bit less
192 restrictive, look for the helper programs in the same folder where
193 the GLib DLL is, not necessarily in a "bin" subfolder of the top
194 GLib installation folder.
196 2008-09-18 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
198 * configure.in: Bump version to 2.19.0
200 * ChangeLog.pre-2-18: rotate ChangeLog
