1 2005-11-16 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
3 * docs/reference/glib/tmpl/unicode.sgml: Correct typo on mentioning
4 @G_UNICODE_BREAK_UNKNOWN that should be #G_UNICODE_BREAK_UNKNOWN.
6 2005-11-09 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
8 * glib/guniprop.c: Use bit hacks instead when checking a general
9 category value against multiple values.
11 * glib/gutf8.c: Change ISO10646 to Unicode in docs.
13 2005-11-10 Simos Xenitellis <simos@gnome.org>
15 * configure.in: Added tt (Tatar) to ALL_LINGUAS.
17 2005-11-05 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
19 * glib/giowin32.c (g_io_win32_set_flags): Don't call g_warning().
20 (#320688) Instead set error and return failure.
22 2005-11-07 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
24 * glib/gmain.c (g_main_dispatch): Don't call cb_funcs->unref
25 while holding the context lock. (#320886, Andy Wingo)
27 2005-11-07 Billy Biggs <vektor@dumbterm.net>
29 * tests/refcount/Makefile.am: Add a missing reference to libglib
30 in the LDADD for this test.
32 2005-11-07 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
34 * glib/gmem.c (g_allocator_new): We need to set n_preallocs to a
35 nonzero value, otherwise GTK+ 2.8 breaks when compiled against
36 GLib 2.9. (#320755, Luca Ferretti)
38 2005-11-04 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
40 * glib/Makefile.am: Apply a patch from Behdad Esfahbod to
41 use a faster lookup table for g_unichar_get_mirror_char().
42 * glib/gmirroringtable.h: The new table.
43 * glib/gunichartables.h: Remove bidi_mirroring_table.
44 * glib/gen-unicode-tables.pl: Don't generate the mirroring
46 * glib/glib-mirroring-tab/*: Sources for the program
47 which generated gmirroringtable.h.
49 * glib/glist.c: Avoid some code duplication.
51 * glib/gscanner.h: Include gdataset.h. (#320322)
53 * glib/gdebug.h: add new GDebugFlag for fatal_criticals
54 * glib/gmessages.c: (_g_debug_init): handle G_DEBUG=fatal_criticals,
55 to help find critical warnings in applications. (#320017,
58 2005-11-02 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
60 * glib/glib.symbols: Remove large amount of trailing whitespace
61 from one line. Remove #ifdef G_UNDEFINED from around
62 g_hash_table_new and g_hash_table_new_full symbols, what was the
63 purpose of that? Add the g_slice functions.
65 Tue Nov 1 16:24:20 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
67 * glib/gmem.[hc]: prepared deprecation of GMemChunk and GAllocator.
68 added g_slice_*() API to allocate and cache small bits of memory.
69 an actuall allocator implementation for g_slice_*() is still pending.
71 * glib/gthread.[hc]: changes from a patch by Matthias Clasen.
72 changed GRealThread list to use in-structure *next; fields instead
73 of GSList, in order for thread iteration to not depenend on g_slice_*()
75 _g_thread_mem_private_get():
76 _g_thread_mem_private_set(): added accessors for private memory,
77 needed because the ordinary GPrivate implementation relies on GArray
78 and GSList and therefore indirectly on working g_slice_*() allocations.
81 g_thread_foreach(): new public API function to loop over all existing threads.
95 removed GAllocator and free list usages and accompanying locks.
96 use g_slice_*() API to allocate and cache small bits of memory.
98 * glib/ghook.h: removed GMemChunk field from public API.
101 * glib/glist.h: deprecate allocator API, provide _free1() for consistency.
103 * glib/gnode.h: deprecate allocator API.
105 * glib/gmain.c: reordered GPollRec fields so g_slice_free_chain() can
106 be used for poll rec lists.
108 * glib/grel.c: removed mem chunk usage, and allocated tuples via g_slice_*().
109 g_relation_destroy(): free all tuples from the all_tuples hash table,
110 this effectively maintains the life time track keeping of tuples.
111 g_relation_delete_tuple(): free tuples which are removed from the
112 all_tuples hash table. this fixes a temporary leak that was present
113 in the memchunk code until the destruction of the relation.
115 2005-10-29 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
117 * tests/convert-test.c: Add some tests for conversions between
118 UTF-8, UCS-4 and UTF-16.
120 * glib/gutf8.c (g_utf8_to_ucs4, g_utf8_to_utf16): Fix handling
121 of len == -1, noticed by Morten Welinder.
123 2005-10-27 Erdal Ronahi <erdal.ronahi@gmail.com>
125 * configure.in: Added ku (Kurdish) to ALL_LINGUAS
127 2005-10-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
129 * glib/gutf8.c (g_ucs4_to_utf8): Don't set items_read twice
130 in the error case, and add some documentation. (#319806, Morten
133 2005-10-19 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
135 * configure.in: Use AC_CHECK_FUNCS for _NSGetEnviron, to get the
136 config.h symbol automatically. Fixes bug #313731.
138 2005-10-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
140 * glib/gwin32.c (g_win32_get_package_installation_directory):
141 Return a g_strdup()ed copy of the value stored in the hash table,
142 so that it can be g_free()d without leaving a dangling pointer in
143 the hash table. (#319232)
145 2005-10-06 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
147 * glib/gunicollate.c (g_utf8_collate_key_for_filename): Handle
148 all-zero sequences correctly. (#317930, Sebastien Bacher)
150 2005-10-05 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
152 * glib/gmarkup.c (g_markup_escape_text): Doc addition
154 * Makefile.am: Add Collation tests.
156 * tests/collate/*: Inputs and expected outputs for collation tests.
158 * tests/run-collate-tests.sh: Script to run collation tests.
160 * tests/unicode-collate.c (main): Rework slightly to make
161 it usable in unit tests. Also test g_utf8_collate_key_for_filename().
163 2005-10-01 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
165 * docs/reference/glib/tmpl/unicode.sgml:
166 * glib/gen-unicode-tables.pl:
168 * glib/gunichartables.h:
170 * tests/casefold.txt:
171 * tests/casemap.txt: Updated to Unicode 4.1. There are five new
172 GUnicodeBreakType types. That may break some applications, like
175 2005-09-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
177 * glib/gstrfuncs.c (g_ascii_strtoull): Add details to the
178 docs. (#314393, Matthew F. Barnes)
181 * glib/gprintf.h: Remove g_snprintf() and g_vsnprintf(), since
182 they are already declared in glib.h. This doesn't break documented
183 use of gprintf.h, but should probably be pointed out in the
184 release notes for 2.10. (#314232, Behdad Esfahbod)
186 Tue Sep 20 13:16:04 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
188 * glib/gpattern.c (g_pattern_ph_match): applied significant recursion
189 complexity optimization, based on a patch from Matthias Clasen.
191 * tests/patterntest.c: more tests, mostly from matthias.
193 2005-09-20 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
195 * glib/gqueue.c (g_queue_insert_sorted): Correct the docs.
196 (#316703, Mark Drago)
198 Mon Sep 19 17:23:23 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
200 * glib/gpattern.c: applied a patch from matthias which checks on the
201 upper bound of GPatternSpec length to optimize matches.
204 * tests/patterntest.c: added more match cases.
206 2005-09-16 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
208 * glib/gstrfuncs.c (g_ascii_strcasecmp, g_ascii_strncasecmp): Add
209 warning to doc comment that these functions should not be used on
210 encodings like CP932.
212 2005-09-14 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
214 * tests/keyfile-test.c: Add a test for grup names of length 1.
216 * glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_line_is_group): Accept group names
217 of length 1. (#316309)
219 2005-09-12 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
221 * glib/gmarkup.c (g_markup_escape_text): Clarify docs.
223 2005-09-11 Sebastian Wilhelmi <seppi@seppi.de>
225 * tests/refcount/Makefile.am (INCLUDES): Link the the refcount
226 tests to the system thread library $(G_THREAD_LIBS). Fixes #313744
229 2005-09-11 Kjartan Maraas <kmaraas@gnome.org>
231 * glib/gmain.c: (g_child_watch_prepare), (g_child_watch_check),
232 (child_watch_helper_thread): Remove some dead code. Closes
235 2005-09-07 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
237 * glib/Makefile.am: Create also a console version of the
238 gspawn-win32-helper program, gspawn-win32-helper-console.exe.
239 It's otherwise identical to gspawn-win32-helper.exe, except marked
240 as a console application (linked without the -mwindows option).
242 * glib/gspawn-win32.c (do_spawn_directly, do_spawn_with_pipes):
243 Drop the dont_wait parameter. Its truth value correlated 100% with
244 the NULLness of the exit_status parameter anyway, so it's enough
245 to check whether exit_status is NULL. Invert the sense of the
246 dont_return_handle parameter and rename it to do_return_handle, to
247 make the code easier to read by avoiding double negations.
249 (g_spawn_sync_utf8, g_spawn_async_with_pipes_utf8): Modify calls
250 to do_spawn_with_pipes() accordingly.
252 (do_spawn_with_pipes): If we have a console, use the console
253 version of the helper program, otherwise use the GUI one. This
254 avoids extra console windows opening up in some situations. (In
255 case a console application uses the GUI gspawn-win32-helper.exe to
256 spawn another console application we would get a separate console
257 for the spawned console application).
259 * glib-zip.in: Distribute also gspawn-win32-helper-console.exe.
261 2005-09-05 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
263 * glib/gmappedfile.c (g_mapped_file_new): Report an error
264 if the file is too large. (#315275, Kjartan Maraas)
266 * glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_load_from_fd): The return value
267 of read() is signed. (#315273, Kjartan Maraas)
269 2005-08-31 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
271 * glib/gutils.h: Wrapping atexit() is a bad idea on Windows, where
272 the EXE and each DLL have their own atexit function chains.
274 #define g_atexit as atexit instead. This means it has a
275 better chance of doing what the caller wants. For instance,
276 gtkhtml calls g_atexit() registering a function in gtkhtml
277 itself. This caused a crash when g_atexit() was implemented as a
278 function in the GLib DLL. The gtkhtml DLL was already unloaded by
279 the time the GLib DLL got unloaded.
281 * glib/gutils.c: #undef the #define mentioned above, to also get a
282 real g_atexit() into the DLL for backward compatibility. Document
283 the Windows behaviour of g_atexit(), and document the varying ways
284 atexit() can behave in the context of dynamically loaded modules
287 2005-08-31 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
291 * glib/gdataset.c: Add string interning functions.
293 2005-08-28 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
295 * glib/giochannel.c: Unify some near-duplicate strings. (#314654,
298 2005-08-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
300 * configure.in: Bump version to 2.9.0
302 2005-08-25 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
304 Make also the g_spawn*() functions take parameters in the GLib
305 file name encoding, i.e. UTF-8, on Windows. Has no impact on Unix
306 API or ABI. Like the other GLib API that was earlier changed to
307 use UTF-8 on Windows, the names of the functions that take UTF-8
308 have _utf8 suffixes added by using preprocessor macros in the
309 header file. The old names are kept for functions with the old
310 behaviour, taking parameters in the system codepage, for DLL ABI
313 * glib/gspawn.h: On Win32 add the suffix _utf8 to the names of the
314 g_spawn*() functions.
316 * glib/gspawn-win32.c: Use wide-char API on NT-based
317 Windows. Convert parameters from UTF-8 to wide chars (NT) or
318 system codepage (Win9x) and call the C library _wspawn*() or
319 spawn*() functions respectvely. Add DLL ABI stability versions
320 that take parameters in the system codepage.
322 * glib/gspawn-win32-helper.c: On NT-based Windows use the
323 wide-char versions of argv and envp, and use wide-char API to
324 change directory and spawn the program to run. Remove the verbose
325 debugging output, it was too complex to modify for the wide-char
326 features. (Just add temporary debugging printouts if needed, no
327 need to have them permanently in the source.)
329 * glib/gspawn.c: Corresponding documentation updates.
331 * glib/glib.symbols: Corresponding changes: Mark the ABI stability
332 symbols as PRIVATE, add the new _utf8-suffixed ones.
334 2005-08-24 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
336 * glib/gtypes.h (G_MININT64): Cast the constant to gint64; it is
337 guint64 otherwise and that can produce warnings about comparison
338 between signed and unsigned.
340 2005-08-23 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
342 * glib/gutils.c: Fix the crt_externs.h include.
344 2005-08-23 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
346 * NEWS: Fix spelling of my first name.
348 2005-08-23 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
352 * === Released 2.8.1 ===
356 2005-08-20 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>
358 * glib/makefile.msc.in : link with ws2_32.lib
360 2005-08-18 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
362 * configure.in: Check for <sys/wait.h>
364 * glib/gbacktrace.c: Include <sys/wait.h> on if HAVE_SYS_WAIT_H.
366 2005-08-18 Ross Burton <ross@burtonini.com>
369 Optimise single-character insertions.
374 * tests/string-test.c:
375 Add tests for new optimisation, and fix a leak.
377 2005-08-17 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
379 * configure.in: Check for crt_externs.h and _NSGetEnviron.
381 * glib/gutils.c: On Darwin, include crt-externs.h and
382 define environ using _NSGetEnviron(). (#313731)
384 2005-08-16 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
386 * glib/gutils.c (g_get_any_init): Move the body of the big if...
387 (g_get_any_init_do): ... to this new function.
388 (g_get_any_init): Declare as inline.
389 (g_get_any_init_locked): New inline function, does the locking.
390 Make use of these two throughout the code.
392 2005-08-15 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
394 * glib/gbacktrace.c (g_on_error_stack_trace): Wait for
395 the child process and then simply return. This makes
396 The "S" option work as documented in g_on_error_query().
397 (#313125, Matthew F. Barnes)
399 * glib/gunicode.h: Update the link to Unicode category
400 values. (#313369, Behnam Esfahbod)
402 * glib/gqueue.c (g_queue_find_custom): Clarify docs
403 a little. (#311727, Tristan van Berkom)
405 * glib/abicheck.sh, gobject/abicheck.sh: Make the
406 check work on ia64 too, where some symbols ended up
407 in yet another section.
