3 Bug 554790 - g_convert() misbehaves with winiconv versions
5 * glib/win_iconv.c (kernel_mbtowc): If converting from ASCII,
6 explicitly check for and reject 8bit chars. MultiByteToWideChar()
7 doesn't, at least not on XP.
9 2008-10-06 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
11 * glib/gtypes.h: Properly include gmacros.h
13 2008-10-06 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
15 Bug 555309 – giochannel breaks on error
16 Patch from Christian Persch
18 * glib/giounix.c (g_io_unix_read), (g_io_unix_write),
19 (g_io_unix_seek), (g_io_unix_close), (g_io_unix_set_flags):
20 Don't shadow err. Oops!
22 2008-10-06 Christophe Fergeau <teuf@gnome.org>
24 Bug 555224 – Improve g_format_size_for_display doc
26 * glib/gfileutils.c: change g_format_size_for_display API doc to
27 explicitly say that the returned string has to be freed. Change
28 spelling of "newly allocated" to "newly-allocated" in g_file_read_link
29 API doc to be more consistent with what is done in that file.
31 2008-10-01 David Zeuthen <davidz@redhat.com>
33 * README.in: Add "Notes about glib 2.20" section detailing the
34 ramifications of the patch from bug #528670.

38 Bug 554092 – glib doesn't return G_FILE_ERROR_NOENT et al on OS X
40 * glib/giounix.c (g_io_unix_read), (g_io_unix_write),
41 (g_io_unix_seek), (g_io_unix_close), (g_io_unix_set_flags),
42 (g_io_unix_get_flags), (g_io_channel_new_file):
43 Like mclasen says: "well, thats the way errno works...,
44 save it or loose it". Save errno.

49 * glib/tests/Makefile.am: Bypass gtester related stuff on Windows.
51 2008-09-30 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
54 * glib/gnulib/vasnprintf.c: Don't define _GNU_SOURCE on Windows,
55 as _GNU_SOURCE has unintended side effects when compiling against
58 2008-09-26 Dan Winship <danw@gnome.org>
60 Bug 553447 – g_assert_no_error()
62 * glib/gtestutils.h (g_assert_no_error, g_assert_error): Macros to
63 assert that a GError is not set, or else is set to a particular
66 * glib/gtestutils.c (g_assertion_message_error): utility for
69 * glib/tests/keyfile.c:
70 * tests/asyncqueue-test.c:
71 * tests/bookmarkfile-test.c:
72 * tests/convert-test.c:
73 * tests/file-test.c: Use g_assert_error/g_assert_no_error
75 2008-09-26 Dan Winship <danw@gnome.org>
77 * glib/gthreadpool.c (wakeup_thread_marker): make this a "const
78 gpointer" rather than a gconstpointer to avoid warnings later
80 * glib/pcre/pcre_ucp_searchfuncs.c:
81 * glib/pcre/pcre_valid_utf8.c: #include "config.h"
83 * glib/tests/printf.c (test_d): fool gcc into not warning about
84 some printf format strings that we know are dubious
86 2008-09-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
88 Bug 553857 – gbacktrace.h requires signal.h
90 * glib/gbacktrace.h: Include signal.h for raise().
91 Pointed out by Sebastien Bacher
93 2008-09-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
95 Bug 553724 – python interpretter path not patched in correctly
97 * glib/Makefile.am: Fix the sed magic to replace python.
99 2008-09-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
101 * glib/gmain.c: Add some more docs.
103 * glib/giochannel.c: Move more docs inline, and improve them
106 2008-09-25 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
108 Bug 553820 - gpoll.c: undeclared identifier
111 * glib/gpoll.c: Make the g_poll() function non-static also on
112 Windows. Prefix an underscore to the g_main_poll_debug variable
113 and make it non-static in gmain.c so that it can be used in
114 gpoll.c. Add back missing variable declaration.
116 2008-09-25 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
118 * glib/gspawn-win32.c (do_spawn_with_pipes) (do_spawn_directly):
119 Just ignore the child_setup function, never call it. The is no
120 situation in which it could be useful on Windows. Do print a
121 warning, like before.
123 * glib/gspawn.c (g_spawn_async_with_pipes): Corresponding change
126 2008-09-24 Sven Herzberg <sven@imendio.com>
128 Be a little more explcit in the docs. Includes Owen's requested
131 * glib/gmain.c: improved documentation for g_source_attach() and
134 2008-09-23 Michael Natterer <mitch@imendio.com>
136 * glib/glib.h: #include <glib/gpoll.h>
138 * glib/gpoll.h: #error out if gpoll.h is included directly.
140 * glib/gpoll.c: remove trailing whitespace.
142 2008-09-23 Dan Winship <danw@gnome.org>
144 * glib/gpoll.[ch] (g_poll): Move this out of gmain.c and make it part
145 of the public API. (Part of Bug 505361 - gunixinputstream.c assumes
148 2008-09-23 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
150 * glib/gmain.c (poll_rest) [Win32]: Fix embarrassing bug: I was
151 passing an incorrect third parameter to memmove(), had forgotten
152 to multiply by the size of the table entry. Just use a for loop
153 instead, clearer. Odd I didn't notice when testing this code.

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

188 (g_hash_table_lookup_extended)

190 (g_hash_table_remove_internal)

192 (g_hash_table_foreach)
194 (g_hash_table_get_keys)
195 (g_hash_table_get_values): Use new data structure and algorithm,
196 fairly trivial changes.
198 2008-09-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
200 * glib-zip.in: Look for man pages in share/man.
202 * glib/gutils.c (_glib_get_dll_directory)
203 * glib/gspawn-win32.c (do_spawn_with_pipes): Be a bit less
204 restrictive, look for the helper programs in the same folder where
205 the GLib DLL is, not necessarily in a "bin" subfolder of the top
206 GLib installation folder.
208 2008-09-18 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
210 * configure.in: Bump version to 2.19.0
