3 * glib/Makefile.am: Apply a patch from Behdad Esfahbod to
4 use a faster lookup table for g_unichar_get_mirror_char().
5 * glib/gmirroringtable.h: The new table.
6 * glib/gunichartables.h: Remove bidi_mirroring_table.
7 * glib/gen-unicode-tables.pl: Don't generate the mirroring
9 * glib/glib-mirroring-tab/*: Sources for the program
10 which generated gmirroringtable.h.
12 * glib/glist.c: Avoid some code duplication.
14 * glib/gscanner.h: Include gdataset.h. (#320322)
16 * glib/gdebug.h: add new GDebugFlag for fatal_criticals
17 * glib/gmessages.c: (_g_debug_init): handle G_DEBUG=fatal_criticals,
18 to help find critical warnings in applications. (#320017,
21 2005-11-02 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
23 * glib/glib.symbols: Remove large amount of trailing whitespace
24 from one line. Remove #ifdef G_UNDEFINED from around
25 g_hash_table_new and g_hash_table_new_full symbols, what was the
26 purpose of that? Add the g_slice functions.
28 Tue Nov 1 16:24:20 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
30 * glib/gmem.[hc]: prepared deprecation of GMemChunk and GAllocator.
31 added g_slice_*() API to allocate and cache small bits of memory.
32 an actuall allocator implementation for g_slice_*() is still pending.
34 * glib/gthread.[hc]: changes from a patch by Matthias Clasen.
35 changed GRealThread list to use in-structure *next; fields instead
36 of GSList, in order for thread iteration to not depenend on g_slice_*()
38 _g_thread_mem_private_get():
39 _g_thread_mem_private_set(): added accessors for private memory,
40 needed because the ordinary GPrivate implementation relies on GArray
41 and GSList and therefore indirectly on working g_slice_*() allocations.
44 g_thread_foreach(): new public API function to loop over all existing threads.
58 removed GAllocator and free list usages and accompanying locks.
59 use g_slice_*() API to allocate and cache small bits of memory.
61 * glib/ghook.h: removed GMemChunk field from public API.
64 * glib/glist.h: deprecate allocator API, provide _free1() for consistency.
66 * glib/gnode.h: deprecate allocator API.
68 * glib/gmain.c: reordered GPollRec fields so g_slice_free_chain() can
69 be used for poll rec lists.
71 * glib/grel.c: removed mem chunk usage, and allocated tuples via g_slice_*().
72 g_relation_destroy(): free all tuples from the all_tuples hash table,
73 this effectively maintains the life time track keeping of tuples.
74 g_relation_delete_tuple(): free tuples which are removed from the
75 all_tuples hash table. this fixes a temporary leak that was present
76 in the memchunk code until the destruction of the relation.
78 2005-10-29 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
80 * tests/convert-test.c: Add some tests for conversions between
81 UTF-8, UCS-4 and UTF-16.
83 * glib/gutf8.c (g_utf8_to_ucs4, g_utf8_to_utf16): Fix handling
84 of len == -1, noticed by Morten Welinder.
86 2005-10-27 Erdal Ronahi <erdal.ronahi@gmail.com>
88 * configure.in: Added ku (Kurdish) to ALL_LINGUAS
90 2005-10-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
92 * glib/gutf8.c (g_ucs4_to_utf8): Don't set items_read twice
93 in the error case, and add some documentation. (#319806, Morten
96 2005-10-19 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
98 * configure.in: Use AC_CHECK_FUNCS for _NSGetEnviron, to get the
99 config.h symbol automatically. Fixes bug #313731.
101 2005-10-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
103 * glib/gwin32.c (g_win32_get_package_installation_directory):
104 Return a g_strdup()ed copy of the value stored in the hash table,
105 so that it can be g_free()d without leaving a dangling pointer in
106 the hash table. (#319232)
108 2005-10-06 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
110 * glib/gunicollate.c (g_utf8_collate_key_for_filename): Handle
111 all-zero sequences correctly. (#317930, Sebastien Bacher)
113 2005-10-05 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
115 * glib/gmarkup.c (g_markup_escape_text): Doc addition
117 * Makefile.am: Add Collation tests.
119 * tests/collate/*: Inputs and expected outputs for collation tests.
121 * tests/run-collate-tests.sh: Script to run collation tests.
123 * tests/unicode-collate.c (main): Rework slightly to make
124 it usable in unit tests. Also test g_utf8_collate_key_for_filename().
126 2005-10-01 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
128 * docs/reference/glib/tmpl/unicode.sgml:
129 * glib/gen-unicode-tables.pl:
131 * glib/gunichartables.h:
133 * tests/casefold.txt:
134 * tests/casemap.txt: Updated to Unicode 4.1. There are five new
135 GUnicodeBreakType types. That may break some applications, like
138 2005-09-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
140 * glib/gstrfuncs.c (g_ascii_strtoull): Add details to the
141 docs. (#314393, Matthew F. Barnes)
144 * glib/gprintf.h: Remove g_snprintf() and g_vsnprintf(), since
145 they are already declared in glib.h. This doesn't break documented
146 use of gprintf.h, but should probably be pointed out in the
147 release notes for 2.10. (#314232, Behdad Esfahbod)
149 Tue Sep 20 13:16:04 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
151 * glib/gpattern.c (g_pattern_ph_match): applied significant recursion
152 complexity optimization, based on a patch from Matthias Clasen.
154 * tests/patterntest.c: more tests, mostly from matthias.
156 2005-09-20 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
158 * glib/gqueue.c (g_queue_insert_sorted): Correct the docs.
159 (#316703, Mark Drago)
161 Mon Sep 19 17:23:23 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
163 * glib/gpattern.c: applied a patch from matthias which checks on the
164 upper bound of GPatternSpec length to optimize matches.
167 * tests/patterntest.c: added more match cases.
169 2005-09-16 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
171 * glib/gstrfuncs.c (g_ascii_strcasecmp, g_ascii_strncasecmp): Add
172 warning to doc comment that these functions should not be used on
173 encodings like CP932.
175 2005-09-14 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
177 * tests/keyfile-test.c: Add a test for grup names of length 1.
179 * glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_line_is_group): Accept group names
180 of length 1. (#316309)
182 2005-09-12 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
184 * glib/gmarkup.c (g_markup_escape_text): Clarify docs.
186 2005-09-11 Sebastian Wilhelmi <seppi@seppi.de>
188 * tests/refcount/Makefile.am (INCLUDES): Link the the refcount
189 tests to the system thread library $(G_THREAD_LIBS). Fixes #313744
192 2005-09-11 Kjartan Maraas <kmaraas@gnome.org>
194 * glib/gmain.c: (g_child_watch_prepare), (g_child_watch_check),
195 (child_watch_helper_thread): Remove some dead code. Closes
198 2005-09-07 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
200 * glib/Makefile.am: Create also a console version of the
201 gspawn-win32-helper program, gspawn-win32-helper-console.exe.
202 It's otherwise identical to gspawn-win32-helper.exe, except marked
203 as a console application (linked without the -mwindows option).
205 * glib/gspawn-win32.c (do_spawn_directly, do_spawn_with_pipes):
206 Drop the dont_wait parameter. Its truth value correlated 100% with
207 the NULLness of the exit_status parameter anyway, so it's enough
208 to check whether exit_status is NULL. Invert the sense of the
209 dont_return_handle parameter and rename it to do_return_handle, to
210 make the code easier to read by avoiding double negations.
212 (g_spawn_sync_utf8, g_spawn_async_with_pipes_utf8): Modify calls
213 to do_spawn_with_pipes() accordingly.
215 (do_spawn_with_pipes): If we have a console, use the console
216 version of the helper program, otherwise use the GUI one. This
217 avoids extra console windows opening up in some situations. (In
218 case a console application uses the GUI gspawn-win32-helper.exe to
219 spawn another console application we would get a separate console
220 for the spawned console application).
222 * glib-zip.in: Distribute also gspawn-win32-helper-console.exe.
224 2005-09-05 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
226 * glib/gmappedfile.c (g_mapped_file_new): Report an error
227 if the file is too large. (#315275, Kjartan Maraas)
229 * glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_load_from_fd): The return value
230 of read() is signed. (#315273, Kjartan Maraas)
232 2005-08-31 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
234 * glib/gutils.h: Wrapping atexit() is a bad idea on Windows, where
235 the EXE and each DLL have their own atexit function chains.
237 #define g_atexit as atexit instead. This means it has a
238 better chance of doing what the caller wants. For instance,
239 gtkhtml calls g_atexit() registering a function in gtkhtml
240 itself. This caused a crash when g_atexit() was implemented as a
241 function in the GLib DLL. The gtkhtml DLL was already unloaded by
242 the time the GLib DLL got unloaded.
244 * glib/gutils.c: #undef the #define mentioned above, to also get a
245 real g_atexit() into the DLL for backward compatibility. Document
246 the Windows behaviour of g_atexit(), and document the varying ways
247 atexit() can behave in the context of dynamically loaded modules
250 2005-08-31 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
254 * glib/gdataset.c: Add string interning functions.
256 2005-08-28 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
258 * glib/giochannel.c: Unify some near-duplicate strings. (#314654,
261 2005-08-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
263 * configure.in: Bump version to 2.9.0
265 2005-08-25 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
267 Make also the g_spawn*() functions take parameters in the GLib
268 file name encoding, i.e. UTF-8, on Windows. Has no impact on Unix
269 API or ABI. Like the other GLib API that was earlier changed to
270 use UTF-8 on Windows, the names of the functions that take UTF-8
271 have _utf8 suffixes added by using preprocessor macros in the
272 header file. The old names are kept for functions with the old
273 behaviour, taking parameters in the system codepage, for DLL ABI
276 * glib/gspawn.h: On Win32 add the suffix _utf8 to the names of the
277 g_spawn*() functions.
279 * glib/gspawn-win32.c: Use wide-char API on NT-based
280 Windows. Convert parameters from UTF-8 to wide chars (NT) or
281 system codepage (Win9x) and call the C library _wspawn*() or
282 spawn*() functions respectvely. Add DLL ABI stability versions
283 that take parameters in the system codepage.
285 * glib/gspawn-win32-helper.c: On NT-based Windows use the
286 wide-char versions of argv and envp, and use wide-char API to
287 change directory and spawn the program to run. Remove the verbose
288 debugging output, it was too complex to modify for the wide-char
289 features. (Just add temporary debugging printouts if needed, no
290 need to have them permanently in the source.)
292 * glib/gspawn.c: Corresponding documentation updates.
294 * glib/glib.symbols: Corresponding changes: Mark the ABI stability
295 symbols as PRIVATE, add the new _utf8-suffixed ones.
297 2005-08-24 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
299 * glib/gtypes.h (G_MININT64): Cast the constant to gint64; it is
300 guint64 otherwise and that can produce warnings about comparison
301 between signed and unsigned.
303 2005-08-23 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
305 * glib/gutils.c: Fix the crt_externs.h include.
307 2005-08-23 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
309 * NEWS: Fix spelling of my first name.
311 2005-08-23 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
315 * === Released 2.8.1 ===
319 2005-08-20 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>
321 * glib/makefile.msc.in : link with ws2_32.lib
323 2005-08-18 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
325 * configure.in: Check for <sys/wait.h>
327 * glib/gbacktrace.c: Include <sys/wait.h> on if HAVE_SYS_WAIT_H.
329 2005-08-18 Ross Burton <ross@burtonini.com>
332 Optimise single-character insertions.
337 * tests/string-test.c:
338 Add tests for new optimisation, and fix a leak.
340 2005-08-17 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
342 * configure.in: Check for crt_externs.h and _NSGetEnviron.
344 * glib/gutils.c: On Darwin, include crt-externs.h and
345 define environ using _NSGetEnviron(). (#313731)
347 2005-08-16 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
349 * glib/gutils.c (g_get_any_init): Move the body of the big if...
350 (g_get_any_init_do): ... to this new function.
351 (g_get_any_init): Declare as inline.
352 (g_get_any_init_locked): New inline function, does the locking.
353 Make use of these two throughout the code.
355 2005-08-15 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
357 * glib/gbacktrace.c (g_on_error_stack_trace): Wait for
358 the child process and then simply return. This makes
359 The "S" option work as documented in g_on_error_query().
360 (#313125, Matthew F. Barnes)
362 * glib/gunicode.h: Update the link to Unicode category
363 values. (#313369, Behnam Esfahbod)
365 * glib/gqueue.c (g_queue_find_custom): Clarify docs
366 a little. (#311727, Tristan van Berkom)
368 * glib/abicheck.sh, gobject/abicheck.sh: Make the
369 check work on ia64 too, where some symbols ended up
370 in yet another section.
