3 Bug 547637 – unconditional #include of sys/statfs.h in configure
4 impedes detection of statfs things if non-existant
6 * configure.in: Protect the statfs.h include by guards.
8 2008-08-12 Federico Mena Quintero <federico@novell.com>
10 * glib/gi18n-lib.h: In the #error about having to define
11 GETTEXT_PACKAGE, add a hint about a possibly-missing config.h.
13 2008-08-11 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
15 Bug 547200 – g_utf8_find_next_char() issues
17 * glib/gutf8.c: Improve wording about @end arguments in str funcs.
19 2008-08-10 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
21 * glib/gutf8.c: Fix docs to use "nul-terminated" consistently.
23 2008-08-08 Ryan Lortie <desrt@desrt.ca>
25 Fix 'fail' markup test cases to -not- be valid XML 1.1.
27 * tests/markups/fail-32.gmarkup: change  to � since the
28 former is no longer a failure.
30 2008-08-08 Ryan Lortie <desrt@desrt.ca>
32 Bug 546876 - Modify GMarkup parser to accept  .. 
34 * glib/gmarkup.c: previously the parser only accepted character
35 references for \t \n and \r (as per XML 1.0); now it accepts all
38 2008-08-07 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
40 * configure.in: Output comment clarifying GPid semantics to
43 * glibconfig.h.win32.in: Ditto here.
45 2008-08-04 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
47 Bug 546329 – API docs for g_utf8_normalize() are incorrect
49 * glib/gunidecomp.c: Remove inaccurate information about
50 g_utf8_collate() from g_utf8_normalize() docs.
51 Pointed out by Sven Neumann.
53 2008-08-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
55 * glibconfig.h.win32.in: Make the union _GSystemThread::data array
56 8 bytes on Win64. Not that it matters as the union contains a
57 pointer also anyway, but for equivalence with the configure-
58 generated glibconfig.h
60 2008-08-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
62 * glib/gmain.c (g_get_current_time): MSDN says: "Do not cast a
63 pointer to a FILETIME structure to either a LARGE_INTEGER* or
64 __int64* value because it can cause alignment faults on 64-bit
65 Windows." So don't do that then. Indeed the code did work randomly
66 on Win64 when compiled with optimisation.
68 2008-08-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
73 * glib/gspawn-win32-helper.c: Change gssize casts introduced on
74 2008-07-28 to gintptr casts now that we have that. gssize is as
75 such the same as gintptr on both 32- and 64-bit Windows, but the
76 gintptr name indicates that it is used to hold pointers, i.e. also
79 * tests/testglib.c: Avoid warning on Win64 by using gintptr cast
82 2008-08-04 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
84 * configure.in: Bump version
86 2008-08-04 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>

98 2008-08-02 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
100 * glibconfig.h.win32.in: Add gintptr and guintptr typedefs here,
101 too, appropriately ifdeffed for 32/64 bit, gcc/MSVC. Add 64-bit
102 versions of GPOINTER_TO_INT(), GPOINTER_TO_UINT() and vice versa,

111 Bug 545798 – "Since: 2.18" mark is missing in g_set_error_literal
114 * glib/gerror.c (g_set_error_literal): Add a Since: marker.
115 Pointed out by Kouhei Sutou
117 2008-07-30 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
119 Bug 545485 - Implicit declaration of utime()
121 * glib/gstdio.c: Include <utime.h> on POSIX.
123 2008-07-28 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
125 * configure.in: Output to glibconfig.h typedefs for gintptr as the
126 signed integer type that can hold a pointer, and guintptr as the
127 corresponding unsigned type. These types are portable equivalents
128 to intptr_t and uintptr_t which are not available in all
131 For all current platforms, they will presumably end up as the same
132 types as gssize and gsize, but in theory size_t can be smaller
133 than intptr_t. Also, the intended use case for gintptr and
134 guintptr is different from that of gssize and gsize. As the name
135 indicates, gintptr is for when one wants an integer type that can
136 hold a pointer, and gsize is for when one wants an integer type
137 that can hold the value of the sizeof operator.
139 2008-07-28 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
141 Bug 544465 – gmarkup makes it hard to use pre-rolled parsers
144 * glib/gmarkup.[hc]: Add g_markup_context_get_user_data.
147 2008-07-28 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
149 * glib-zip.in: Message catalogs should always get installed into
150 share/locale nowadays, don't bother with the convoluted logic
151 checking if they are in lib/locale instead. Put the correct helper
152 programs in the zipfile.
154 2008-07-28 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
156 Fix problems on 64-bit Windows. Avoid warnings, some of which
157 indicated actual problems, some which were just annoyances.
159 Where casts to an integer type are needed for pointers, use
160 gssize. Technically intptr_t would be the more proper type, but we
161 still want to be compilable with MSVS6 and 7 which don't have
162 intptr_t. MSVS8 and 9 do have intptr_t, but in <crtdefs.h>, not
165 Use %p to print out handles. Use gssize casts when assigning
168 Use G_GSIZE_FORMAT when printing size_t values.
170 * configure.in: Define automake conditional G_OS_WIN32_X64 which
173 * glib/giochannel.h: Use slightly different prototype for
174 g_io_channel_win32_new_messages() on Win64 with gsize instead of
179 * glib/gspawn-win32.c
180 * tests/testglib.c: Generic changes as described above.
182 * glib/gmain.h: Don't bother mentioning GIMP in comment.
184 * glib/grel.c (tuple_hash_2): Use all bits of pointer.
186 * glib/gspawn-win32.c
187 * glib/gspawn-win32-helper.c: Use gssize types in the
188 communication between parent and helper process, so that we can
189 pass process handles, which are pointers, also on Win64.
191 * glib/gtimer.c (g_time_val_to_iso8601): time_t is 64 bits on
192 Win64 so we can't pass the address of a GTimeVal::tv_sec which is
193 a long directly to gmtime(). On the other hand, changing
194 GTimeVal::tv_sec to be a gint64 on Win64 is not really feasible
195 either, as that would then require changes in much code that uses
198 * glib/gspawn-win32.c
199 * glib/Makefile.am: Call the helper programs
200 gspawn-win64-helper.exe and gspawn-win64-helper-console.exe on
201 Win64, to avoid potential risk of running a 32-bit version of the
204 2008-07-27 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
211 * glib/gspawn-win32.c
213 * glib/gwin32.c: Bypass the Windows "ABI compatibility" symbols on
214 _WIN64. As there hasn't been any widely deployed 64-bit Windows
215 builds of the really old GLib (pre-2.8.1) versions those refer to,
216 there is no need to have the "ABI compatibility" versions in the
219 * glib/makegalias.pl: Handle #ifndef _WIN64: Just output it, too.
221 2008-07-27 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
223 * configure.in: Set LIB_EXE_MACHINE_FLAG to either X86 or X64 on
224 Windows. AC_SUBST it.
226 * glib/Makefile.am (glib-2.0.lib): Pass appropriate -machine flag
229 2008-07-25 15:47:08 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
231 * glib/tests/testing.c (test_random_conversions): added new sample
232 test to prepare for extended range random tests.
234 2008-07-24 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
236 * glib/gdir.c: Include <stdio.h> for FILENAME_MAX on newer mingw
239 2008-07-24 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
241 * glib/gslice.c (smc_notify_free): Use G_GSIZE_FORMAT instead of
244 2008-07-24 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
246 * configure.in: Must output the GLIB_USING_SYSTEM_PRINTF to
247 glibconfig.h using the same two phase code as for the other
248 defines in it. Can't check enable_included_printf directly in the
249 shell code that is the first argument to AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS().
251 Preset glib_cv_stack_grows=no on Windows to help
254 * configure.in: Enhancements for 64-bit Windows:
256 Handle also size_t being larger than long. It is long long
257 a.k.a. __int64 on the LLP64 Win64.
259 Set glib_void_p and glib_long correctly. Their assignments were
260 crossed. It hasn't mattered on LP64 platforms like all (?) 64-bit
261 UNIXes, but on the LLP Win64 it was wrong.
263 * glibconfig.h.win32.in: Check also _WIN64.
265 2008-07-24 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
267 * glibconfig.h.win32.in: Patch for 64-bit Windows from Richard

339 * glib/giowin32.c (g_io_win32_prepare): Patch from Yu Kuan that
340 makes watched sockets behave much better. See gtk-devel-list
341 archives from May for the (unfortunately rather meager)

720 Patch by Hiroyuki Ikezoe
722 2008-06-11 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
724 * glib/giowin32.c: g_win32_error_message() works fine for the
725 Winsock WSA* error codes, too, so drop the winsock_error_message()
728 2008-06-11 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
730 Bug 455215 – g_get_user_special_dir: no reference about

746 Bug 511367 - add g_file_make_directory_with_parents.
750 * gio/gio.symbols: Add g_file_make_directory_with_parents.
752 2008-06-11 Sebastian Dröge <slomo@circular-chaos.org>

755 with gcc 4.0 or newer
757 * glib/gmacros.h: Use __builtin_offsetof for G_STRUCT_OFFSET if
758 building with gcc 4.0 or newer.
760 2008-06-11 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
763 * glib/gspawn.c: Clarify what a "child pid" is in the doc
766 2008-06-10 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>

780 Bug 531403 – g_utf8_collate broken on Mac.
782 * glib/gunicollate.c: (g_utf8_collate): use UCCompareTextDefault;
783 (collate_key_to_string), (carbon_collate_key_with_collator),
784 (carbon_collate_key), (carbon_collate_key_for_filename): new
785 functions using Carbon API to get collate key for g_utf8_collate_key()
786 and g_utf8_collate_key_for_filename();
787 (g_utf8_collate_key), (g_utf8_collate_key_for_filename): use those.
789 2008-05-30 Michael Natterer <mitch@imendio.com>
791 Bug 535628 - test/patterntest.c still includes gpattern.h
794 * tests/patterntest.c: don't include "glib/gpattern.h" directly.
795 Patch from Hiroyuki Ikezoe.
797 2008-05-30 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
799 Bug 535625 - alias.h:2648: error: 'utime' undeclared here (not in
802 * glib/glib.symbols: Move g_utime inside #if !defined(G_OS_UNIX)
803 || defined(G_STDIO_NO_WRAP_ON_UNIX).
805 2008-05-30 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
807 * glib/gstdio.c (g_access) [Win32]: Mask out X_OK to avoid problem
808 on Vista. X_OK was just ignored by access() in earlier Microsoft C
809 libraries. (Which is fine as executability has little meaning on
810 Windows.) The one on Vista returns an error if X_OK is passed.
812 2008-05-29 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
815 * glib/gstdio.c: Add g_utime(). No need to include <sys/utime.h>
816 in gstdio.h, just use a forward struct declaration.
818 * glib/glib.symbols: Add it.
820 2008-05-29 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
822 * glib/gnulib/printf-args.c (printf_fetchargs): wint_t is short on
823 Windows, and gcc warns: "wint_t is promoted to int when passed
824 through ... (so you should pass int not wint_t to va_arg)." And
825 indeed g_print("%C", L'a') crashes. So do as gcc says then.
827 2008-05-28 Michael Natterer <mitch@imendio.com>

879 2008-05-25 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
881 Bug 534319 - GLib's .pc files could use Libs.private
883 * glib-2.0-uninstalled.pc.in
885 * gmodule-2.0-uninstalled.pc.in
887 * gmodule-export-2.0.pc.in

895 2008-05-22 10:49:37 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
897 * glib/gmacros.h: implement G_STMT_START and G_STMT_END with
898 do{}while(0), which is believed to be widely portable, fixes:
899 Bug 519026 - G_STMT_START/G_STMT_END test a non-existent preprocessor symbol
901 2008-05-20 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>

924 Bug 459905 – Bug in wcwidth data
925 Bug 534085 – g_unichar_iswide_cjk() has a totally wrong table
926 * glib/guniprop.c (g_unichar_iswide), (g_unichar_iswide_cjk):
927 Regenrate wide and wide_cjk tables from Unicode 5.1.0 data directly.
928 Not using Markus Kuhn's tables anymore.
930 2008-05-20 14:31:18 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
932 * reverted recent unapproved changes by Yair Hershkovitz, regarding:
933 Bug 503071 – Application direction changes to right to left even if theres no translation.
935 2008-05-20 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
937 * configure.in: Don't need memory barriers when using a non-gcc
938 compiler on Windows either.
940 2008-05-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
942 * glib/gdir.c: Include the dirent.h and wdirent.c from
943 ../build/win32/dirent directly here when compiling with MSVC and
944 without HAVE_DIRENT_H.
946 2008-05-19 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>
948 * glib/makefile.msc : added gi18n.c
950 2008-05-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
952 * glib/Makefile.am: #define HELPER_CONSOLE in
953 gspawn-win32-helper-console.c
955 * glib/gspawn-win32-helper.c: Compile a main() instead of
956 WinMain() if HELPER_CONSOLE is defined. MSVC insists on a console
957 application having a main().
959 2008-05-18 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
961 Bug 527214 – g_timer_elapsed() returns random values.
963 * glib/gtimer.c (g_timer_new()):
964 Print warning if g_thread_init() has not been called yet.
965 Patch by Mathias Hasselmann
967 2008-05-12 Jeffrey Stedfast <fejj@novell.com>
969 * glib/gchecksum.c (g_checksum_reset): New function to reset the
970 state of a GChecksum.
971 (g_checksum_new): Call g_checksum_reset() instead of duplicating
974 2008-05-17 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
976 Bug 528667 – Typos in testing module documentation
978 * glib/gtestutils.c: Fix typos in the documentation.
980 2008-05-17 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
982 * glib/giowin32.c: Make debugging printout more compact and add
983 more information to it. No changes to actual functionality.
985 * glib/gmain.c: Improve debugging printouts. When
986 G_MAIN_POLL_DEBUG is defined, we check for an environment variable
987 of the same name to decide whether to print out debugging
988 information or not. G_MAIN_POLL_DEBUG is always defined on Windows
989 as there is more often a need to debug this stuff there. On Unix
990 the definition has to be uncommented (or done on the compile
993 2008-05-17 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
995 * build: Don't include the "build" module with svn:externals any
996 longer. Instead add the still relevant directories and files from
997 it for real here in GLib.
999 2008-05-17 Yair Hershkovitz <yairhr@gmail.com>
1001 * glib/glib.symbols:
1002 * glib/gi18n.h: Added g_disable_setlocale().
1004 * glib/gi18n.c: Added g_disable_setlocale() API to disable setting
1005 the locale in g_i18n_init(). Dont disable translations if textdomain
1006 was not set before calling g_i18n_init(). Dont disable translations if
1009 2008-05-16 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
1011 * config.h.win32.in: Update to match the configure-produced one.
1013 2008-05-14 Michael Natterer <mitch@imendio.com>
1015 * glib/gatomic.c: #include "config.h" before using G_ATOMIC_ARM.
1017 2008-05-13 Kjartan Maraas <kmaraas@gnome.org>
1019 * glib/gi18n.c: #include <locale.h> to fix the build.
1021 2008-05-12 Yair Hershkovitz <yairhr@gmail.com>
1023 * glib/gi18n.c (g_i18n_init): Coding convention fix. Space between
1024 a function name and its opening parenthesis.
1026 2008-05-12 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
1028 * glib/glib.symbols: Add g_i18n_init.
1030 2008-05-12 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
1032 Bug 530457 - G_USER_DIRECTORY_DOWNLOAD folder improperly mapped
1034 * glib/gutils.c (load_user_special_dirs): When running on Vista or
1035 later, use SHGetKnownFolderPath() to get the FOLDERID_Downloads
1036 folder for G_USER_DIRECTORY_DOWNLOAD, and FOLDERID_Public for
1037 G_USER_DIRECTORY_PUBLIC_SHARE.
1039 2008-05-11 Yair Hershkovitz <yairhr@gmail.com>
1041 Bug 503071 - Application direction changes to right to left even if
1042 theres no translation.
1044 * glib/gi18n.c: g_i18n_init() for initializing the glib i18n,
1045 checking if a translation is available for the calling app. wrappers for
1046 gettext, dgettext and dpgettext to check first if the application
1047 should be translated.
1049 * glib/gi18n.h: symbol declaration for gettext wrappers.
1051 * glib/gi18n-lib.h: include gi18n.h instead of libintl.h.
1053 * glib/gstrfuncs.c: moved g_dpgettext() to glib/gi18n.c.
1055 * glib/gutils.c: use g_dgettext() instead of dgettext().
1057 * glib/glibintl.h: include gi18n.h.
1059 * glib.symbols: added gettext wrappers.
1061 * glib/Makefile.am: added gi18n.c.
1063 2008-05-05 Michael Natterer <mitch@imendio.com>
1065 * glib/glib.h: #define __GLIB_H_INSIDE__ around including
1068 * glib/*.h: check for that define instead of __G_LIB_H__ if
1069 G_DISABLE_SINGLE_INCLUDES is defined.
1071 * glib/gdatasetprivate.h: #include <glib.h> instead of
1074 2008-05-02 13:24:13 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
1076 * glib/gmain.c: renamed GMainDispatch.dispatching_sources to be more
1077 descriptive and distinguishable within the source file.
1079 2008-04-21 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
1081 Bug 528752 - Win32 build and SSL not working
1083 This bug report against libsoup points out an issue with the use
1084 of bitfields in the GIOChannel struct that should really be taken
1085 care of here in GLib.
1087 * configure.in: Add Autoconf variable GLIB_EXTRA_CFLAGS which will
1088 contain the -mms-bitfields flag on Windows.
1090 * glib-2.0.pc.in: Add it to Cflags.
1092 2008-04-21 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
1095 * */Makefile.am: More work on enabling static building on
1096 Windows. When building statically: Also define
1097 GOBJECT_STATIC_COMPILATION in glibconfig.h so that also the
1098 variables in gparamspecs.h get declared without any
1099 dllimport/dllexport decorations. Don't install .def files which
1100 obviously have no meaning for static libraries. Don't create MS
1101 import libraries. Don't do any resource object files.
1103 2008-04-18 17:40:58 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
1105 * tests/testglib.c: fixed gstdio.h include.
1107 * tests/Makefile.am: properly list testglib.c SOURCES.
1109 2008-04-17 Emmanuele Bassi <ebassi@gnome.org>
1112 (sha_byte_reverse): Use the macro GLib provides for byte-swapping
1113 as it can be optimized.
1115 (g_checksum_update): Fix a compiler warning.
1117 2008-04-15 Mukund Sivaraman <muks@mukund.org>
1119 * gio/gfile.c: Fixed typos in gtk-doc comments.
1121 2008-04-10 Mathias Hasselmann <mathias@openismus.com>
1123 Bug 519137 – g_slice_dup macro needs cast for 64-bit platform
1125 * glib/gslice.h (g_slice_copy): Apply type casts needed
1126 for proper compilation on 64-bit platforms.
1128 2008-04-09 Federico Mena Quintero <federico@novell.com>
1130 * glib/gbookmarkfile.c (bookmark_metadata_free): Don't leak
1131 the apps_by_name hash table if the applications list is empty.
1133 2008-04-08 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
1135 * glib/gunicode.h: Add ISO 15924 code comments for new scripts.
1137 2008-04-07 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
1139 Bug 491554 – Update to Unicode 5.1.0
1141 * glib/gunichartables.h:
1144 * glib/gmirroringtable.h:
1145 * glib/gscripttable.h:
1146 * glib/gen-script-table.pl: Update to Unicode 5.1.0. Patch by
1149 2008-04-07 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
1151 Bug 526619 – make test-report crash
1153 * glib/gtester.c: Allocate enough space for argv. Patch by
1156 2008-04-04 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
1158 * glib/gmain.c: Make the fix for bug 448943 work.
1160 2008-04-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
1162 * configure.in: Make sure we don't build both shared and static at
1163 the same time on Windows. Put a #define for
1164 GLIB_STATIC_COMPILATION into glibconfig.h in the static case, so
1165 that the use of variables from libglib gets the GLIB_VAR macro in
1166 gtypes.h automatically correct. This means that a shared and
1167 static build of GLib can't be installed in the same prefix on
1168 Windows, which sucks a bit. But with variables in the GLib API,
1169 there isn't much we can do otherwise. The alternative would be to
1170 force the developer who compiles against a statically built GLib
1171 to use -DGLIB_STATIC_COMPILATION.
1173 * glibconfig.h.win32.in: Define GLIB_STATIC_COMPILATION here also,
1176 2008-04-03 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
1178 * configure.in: Don't enforce shared library build only on
1179 Windows. It might well make sense to build static libraries in
1182 * glib/gutils.c: Don't compile the DllMain if building libglib
1183 statically. Also in that case don't return NULL from
1184 _glib_get_installation_directory(), but return the installation
1185 directory of the program's .exe file.
1187 2008-04-03 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
1189 Bug 525972 - UCS-4 not in the new win_iconv implementation
1191 * glib/win_iconv.c: Add UCS-4. Also add spelling of UCS-2 without
1194 2008-04-03 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
1196 Bug 448943 – g_timeout_add_seconds() problems
1198 * glib/gmain.c (g_timeout_set_expiration): Prevent expiration
1199 time going negative. Reported by Cody Russell, analyzed by
1200 Olivier Crete, patch by Sjoerd Simons.
1202 2008-04-03 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
1204 Bug 525674 – A typo in gmarkup.c

1207 the docs, reported by Hiroyuki Ikezoe
1209 2008-04-03 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
1211 Bug 525732 – Error in documentation for g_list_first
1213 * glib/glist.c (g_list_first): Fix the docs, reported by
1216 2008-04-02 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
1218 Bug 524314 - g_convert() on Win32 implicitly converts full width
1219 alphanumerics into half width
1221 * glib/win_iconv.c: Update from Yukihiro Nakadaira. Use
1222 WC_NO_BEST_FIT_CHARS flag for WideCharToMultiByte() unless the
1223 //translit flag was suffixed to the codeset name.
1225 * glib/gconvert.c: Include win_iconv.c earlier so that its
1226 definition of WINVER before it includes <windows.h> is used.
1228 2008-03-31 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
1230 * glib/gmain.c (g_poll): Improve fix for #525192 below: Use
1231 SleepEx() so that the sleep is alertable. Thanks to John
1234 2008-03-31 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>

1267 2008-03-30 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
1271 * glib/gutils.c: Simple fixes to help building GLib on
1272 embedded systems without NLS. (#524350, Peter Kjellerstedt)
1274 2008-03-30 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
1276 * glib/ghash.c: Fix the build with -DG_DISABLE_ASSERT.
1277 (#525060, Arfrever Frehtes Taifersar Arahesis)
1279 2008-03-30 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
1281 * glib/gthread.h: Replace occurrances of G_GNUC_PRETTY_FUNCTION
1282 by G_STRFUNC. (#524344, Peter Kjellerstedt)
1284 2008-03-30 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>

1290 Bug 523877 – gbookmarkfile: avoid using g_string_append_printf() and
1293 * glib/gbookmarkfile.c: (bookmark_metadata_dump),
1294 (bookmark_item_dump), (g_bookmark_file_dump), (expand_exec_line):
1295 Replace all calls to g_string_append_printf with g_strconcat () or
1296 g_string_append () where appropriate, to reduce the file creation time.
1297 Also, use g_string_sized_new () with an appropriate buffer size instead
1298 of g_string_new (NULL), to reduce time spent in memory reallocation.
1299 (#523877, Claudio Saavedra, Emmanuele Bassi)
1301 2008-03-22 Emmanuele Bassi <ebassi@gnome.org>
1303 Bug 518160 - replace two g_strdup_printf calls in GBookmarkFile
1305 * glib/gbookmarkfile.c (is_element_full): Compare the fragments
1306 instead of building two strings; this avoids two g_strdup_printf()
1307 per namespaced element enountered. (#518160, Felix Riemann)
1309 2008-03-20 Alexander Larsson <alexl@redhat.com>
1312 Final fixes for struct statfs.f_fstypename checks (OpenBSD). (#521045)

1315 2008-03-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
1317 Bug 523298 - win_iconv can't convert from UTF-8 to GB18030 (or vice versa)
1319 * glib/win_iconv.c: Fixes for code page 54936 (GB18030)
1320 (mbtowc_flags): New function. Check if a code page is one of those
1321 for which the dwFlags parameter to MultiByteToWideChar() must be
1322 zero. Return 0 or MB_ERR_INVALID_CHARS.
1323 (mbcs_mblen): New function for multi-byte (more than two bytes for
1324 some characters) code pages. Only handles 54936 for now.
1325 (make_csconv): Use it for 54936.
1326 (kernel_mbtowc): Use mbtowc_flags().

1330 Bug 522292 - Gives warnings in glib/gutils.h with GCC in C99 mode
1332 * glib/gutils.h: Use "__attribute__ ((__gnu_inline__))" for inlining
1333 if either __GNUC_STDC_INLINE__ or __GNUC_GNU_INLINE__ are defined. In
1334 gcc version prior to 4.3 no correct C99-inline was implemented which
1335 has semantic differences to GNU inline.
1337 2008-03-16 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
1339 * configure.in: Don't bother defining Autoconf variables for
1340 glib.def, gmodule.def, gobject.def and gthread.def when this can
1341 be handled easily in */Makefile.am which are the only files that
1342 use them. Remove also TESTGMODULE_EXP which isn't used at all.
1344 * glib/Makefile.am: Corrsponding change.
1346 2008-03-14 Michael Natterer <mitch@imendio.com>
1348 * glib/*.h: make it possible to disable single-file includes by
1349 defining G_DISABLE_SINGLE_INCLUDES when building against GLib.
1350 Approved by Tim Janik.
1352 * glib/glib.h: include <glib/gslice.h>.
1356 * glib/gprintf.h: include <glib.h> so the above works when these
1357 files are included without including <glib.h> first.
1359 2008-03-14 Alexander Larsson <alexl@redhat.com>
1362 Add required includes for f_fstypename member check.
1364 2008-03-14 Alexander Larsson <alexl@redhat.com>
1367 Added checks for FEN (Solaris File Event Notification)
1369 2008-03-13 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
1371 * glib-zip.in: Add lib/gio-2.0.lib and lib/gio-2.0.def.
1373 2008-03-12 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
1375 * configure.in: Expand gio/win32/Makefile.
1377 2008-03-12 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
1379 * configure.in: Bump version to 2.17.0
1381 * ChangeLog.pre-2-16: rotate ChangeLog
1383 * === branch for 2.16 ===
