15 Bug 554557 – Patch to fix gcc warnings about missing format
20 * glib/grel.c: Fix gcc warnings. Patch by Kjartan Maraas
22 2008-10-10 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
24 Bug 552861 – glib-2.0.m4 calls system(3) without storing its result
26 * m4macros/glib-2.0.m4: Cosmetic change to make -Werror happy.
27 Patch by Andreas Köhler
29 2008-10-08 Christian Persch <chpe@gnome.org>
31 Bug 555313 – GFileAttribute boxed type get_type function should
32 use usual get_type pattern
34 * gio/gfileattribute.c (g_file_attribute_info_list_get_type): Use
35 g_once_init_enter/leave.
37 2008-10-08 Christian Persch <chpe@gnome.org>
39 Bug 555314 – mem leak in gmarkup
41 * glib/gmarkup.c: (g_markup_parse_context_parse): Plug a mem leak.
43 2008-10-08 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
45 Bug 554790 - g_convert() misbehaves with winiconv versions
47 * glib/win_iconv.c (kernel_mbtowc): If converting from ASCII,
48 explicitly check for and reject 8bit chars. MultiByteToWideChar()
49 doesn't, at least not on XP.
51 2008-10-06 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
53 * glib/gtypes.h: Properly include gmacros.h
55 2008-10-06 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
57 Bug 555309 – giochannel breaks on error
58 Patch from Christian Persch
60 * glib/giounix.c (g_io_unix_read), (g_io_unix_write),
61 (g_io_unix_seek), (g_io_unix_close), (g_io_unix_set_flags):
62 Don't shadow err. Oops!
64 2008-10-06 Christophe Fergeau <teuf@gnome.org>
66 Bug 555224 – Improve g_format_size_for_display doc
68 * glib/gfileutils.c: change g_format_size_for_display API doc to
69 explicitly say that the returned string has to be freed. Change
70 spelling of "newly allocated" to "newly-allocated" in g_file_read_link
71 API doc to be more consistent with what is done in that file.
73 2008-10-01 David Zeuthen <davidz@redhat.com>
75 * README.in: Add "Notes about glib 2.20" section detailing the
76 ramifications of the patch from bug #528670.
78 2008-09-30 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
80 Bug 554092 – glib doesn't return G_FILE_ERROR_NOENT et al on OS X
82 * glib/giounix.c (g_io_unix_read), (g_io_unix_write),
83 (g_io_unix_seek), (g_io_unix_close), (g_io_unix_set_flags),
84 (g_io_unix_get_flags), (g_io_channel_new_file):
85 Like mclasen says: "well, thats the way errno works...,
86 save it or loose it". Save errno.
88 2008-09-30 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
91 * glib/tests/Makefile.am: Bypass gtester related stuff on Windows.
93 2008-09-30 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
96 * glib/gnulib/vasnprintf.c: Don't define _GNU_SOURCE on Windows,
97 as _GNU_SOURCE has unintended side effects when compiling against
100 2008-09-26 Dan Winship <danw@gnome.org>
102 Bug 553447 – g_assert_no_error()
104 * glib/gtestutils.h (g_assert_no_error, g_assert_error): Macros to
105 assert that a GError is not set, or else is set to a particular
108 * glib/gtestutils.c (g_assertion_message_error): utility for
111 * glib/tests/keyfile.c:
112 * tests/asyncqueue-test.c:
113 * tests/bookmarkfile-test.c:
114 * tests/convert-test.c:
115 * tests/file-test.c: Use g_assert_error/g_assert_no_error
117 2008-09-26 Dan Winship <danw@gnome.org>
119 * glib/gthreadpool.c (wakeup_thread_marker): make this a "const
120 gpointer" rather than a gconstpointer to avoid warnings later
122 * glib/pcre/pcre_ucp_searchfuncs.c:
123 * glib/pcre/pcre_valid_utf8.c: #include "config.h"
125 * glib/tests/printf.c (test_d): fool gcc into not warning about
126 some printf format strings that we know are dubious
128 2008-09-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
130 Bug 553857 – gbacktrace.h requires signal.h
132 * glib/gbacktrace.h: Include signal.h for raise().
133 Pointed out by Sebastien Bacher
135 2008-09-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
137 Bug 553724 – python interpretter path not patched in correctly
139 * glib/Makefile.am: Fix the sed magic to replace python.
141 2008-09-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
143 * glib/gmain.c: Add some more docs.
145 * glib/giochannel.c: Move more docs inline, and improve them
148 2008-09-25 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
150 Bug 553820 - gpoll.c: undeclared identifier
153 * glib/gpoll.c: Make the g_poll() function non-static also on
154 Windows. Prefix an underscore to the g_main_poll_debug variable
155 and make it non-static in gmain.c so that it can be used in
156 gpoll.c. Add back missing variable declaration.
158 2008-09-25 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
160 * glib/gspawn-win32.c (do_spawn_with_pipes) (do_spawn_directly):
161 Just ignore the child_setup function, never call it. The is no
162 situation in which it could be useful on Windows. Do print a
163 warning, like before.
165 * glib/gspawn.c (g_spawn_async_with_pipes): Corresponding change
168 2008-09-24 Sven Herzberg <sven@imendio.com>
170 Be a little more explcit in the docs. Includes Owen's requested
173 * glib/gmain.c: improved documentation for g_source_attach() and
176 2008-09-23 Michael Natterer <mitch@imendio.com>
178 * glib/glib.h: #include <glib/gpoll.h>
180 * glib/gpoll.h: #error out if gpoll.h is included directly.
182 * glib/gpoll.c: remove trailing whitespace.
184 2008-09-23 Dan Winship <danw@gnome.org>
186 * glib/gpoll.[ch] (g_poll): Move this out of gmain.c and make it part
187 of the public API. (Part of Bug 505361 - gunixinputstream.c assumes
190 2008-09-23 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
192 * glib/gmain.c (poll_rest) [Win32]: Fix embarrassing bug: I was
193 passing an incorrect third parameter to memmove(), had forgotten
194 to multiply by the size of the table entry. Just use a for loop
195 instead, clearer. Odd I didn't notice when testing this code.
197 2008-09-19 Hans Petter Jansson <hpj@novell.com>
199 Rewrite most of GHashTable to use open addressing with quadratic
200 probing instead of chaining. This has the potential to reduce memory
201 fragmentation significantly, while being slightly faster due to
202 better locality and no need to call alloc/free functions for nodes.
203 Benchmarks suggest it also uses less memory overall.
205 * glib/ghash.c (prime_mod): Table of suitable primes for
206 initial-probe distribution.
207 (g_hash_table_set_shift): New function.
208 (g_hash_table_find_closest_shift): New function.
209 (g_hash_table_set_shift_from_size): New function.
210 (g_hash_table_lookup_node_for_insertion): New function.
211 (g_hash_table_lookup_node): Rewritten to return node index instead of
212 pointer, use quadratic probe on flat table, and not return insertion
213 data. The latter saves some computation for read-only lookups.
214 (g_hash_table_remove_node): Rewrite to take a pointer directly to the
215 node structure to remove, and clear that. Remove unlinking code.
216 (g_hash_table_remove_all_nodes): Rewrite to not clear nodes
217 individually, but en masse using memset () after potentially calling
219 (iter_remove_or_steal): Use new data structure and algorithm. Vastly
220 simplified - now just a call to g_hash_table_remove_node ().
221 (g_hash_table_resize): New resize code, re-indexing with new prime
222 and cleaning up tombstones.
223 (g_hash_table_maybe_resize): Table may hold 8 buckets minimum, no less
224 than 1/4 load excluding tombstones, and no more than 15/16 load
225 including tombstones. These numbers are the results of a lot of
226 benchmarking with multiple complex applications, and should not be
228 (g_hash_table_iter_next)
229 (g_hash_table_lookup)
230 (g_hash_table_lookup_extended)
231 (g_hash_table_insert_internal)
232 (g_hash_table_remove_internal)
233 (g_hash_table_foreach_remove_or_steal)
234 (g_hash_table_foreach)
236 (g_hash_table_get_keys)
237 (g_hash_table_get_values): Use new data structure and algorithm,
238 fairly trivial changes.
240 2008-09-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
242 * glib-zip.in: Look for man pages in share/man.
244 * glib/gutils.c (_glib_get_dll_directory)
245 * glib/gspawn-win32.c (do_spawn_with_pipes): Be a bit less
246 restrictive, look for the helper programs in the same folder where
247 the GLib DLL is, not necessarily in a "bin" subfolder of the top
248 GLib installation folder.
250 2008-09-18 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
252 * configure.in: Bump version to 2.19.0
254 * ChangeLog.pre-2-18: rotate ChangeLog
256 * === branch for 2.18 ===
