82 Bug 560569 – gkeyfile doesn't use the set list_separator in some cases
84 * glib/gkeyfile.c: (g_key_file_get_locale_string_list),
85 (g_key_file_set_locale_string_list), (g_key_file_set_integer_list),

124 Turn g_assert into g_warn_if_fail as advised

134 2008-10-29 16:11:14 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
136 * glib/gmacros.h: added G_PASTE() and G_STATIC_ASSERT(), based on

138 Bug 558381 - Add support for compile time assertions
140 2008-10-27 Joseph Pingenot <gnomesvn@digitasaru.net>
142 * glib/ghash.c: changed "#GHashTableIterator" to "#GHashTableIter"
143 in the documentation-comments above g_hash_table_foreach_remove()
144 and g_hash_table_foreach_steal() to correctly name and link to
145 GHashTableIter. This affects the GNOME documentation website
146 as well, so further steps are likely necessary beyond this subproject..

167 * gio/gcontenttype.c: Plug a mem leak.
169 2008-10-19 Michael Natterer <mitch@imendio.com>
171 Bug 556186 – gpoll.h breaks gmain.h inclusion
173 * glib/gpoll.h: different fix: disallow direct inclusion
174 unconditionally again but make an exception if included from
175 gmain.h to maintain compatibility.
177 2008-10-16 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
179 * configure.in: Bump version to 2.19.1

192 2008-10-13 Sven Herzberg <sven@imendio.com>
194 Bug 556101 – static mutex yields warnings with g++
195 Reviewed by Tim Janik
197 * configure.in: added an intermediate cast to gpointer
199 2008-10-13 Christian Persch <chpe@gnome.org>
201 Bug 555311 – format not a string literal and no format arguments
204 * glib/gshell.c: Use literal errors where appropriate.
206 2008-10-10 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
208 Bug 551355 – [PATCH] Make glib build with libtool 2.2
210 * autogen.sh: Accept libtool 2.2. We are moving towards having

229 Bug 552861 – glib-2.0.m4 calls system(3) without storing its result
231 * m4macros/glib-2.0.m4: Cosmetic change to make -Werror happy.
232 Patch by Andreas Köhler
234 2008-10-08 Christian Persch <chpe@gnome.org>
236 Bug 555313 – GFileAttribute boxed type get_type function should
237 use usual get_type pattern
239 * gio/gfileattribute.c (g_file_attribute_info_list_get_type): Use
240 g_once_init_enter/leave.

248 2008-10-08 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
250 Bug 554790 - g_convert() misbehaves with winiconv versions
252 * glib/win_iconv.c (kernel_mbtowc): If converting from ASCII,
253 explicitly check for and reject 8bit chars. MultiByteToWideChar()
254 doesn't, at least not on XP.
256 2008-10-06 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
258 * glib/gtypes.h: Properly include gmacros.h
260 2008-10-06 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>

266 (g_io_unix_seek), (g_io_unix_close), (g_io_unix_set_flags):
267 Don't shadow err. Oops!

273 * glib/gfileutils.c: change g_format_size_for_display API doc to
274 explicitly say that the returned string has to be freed. Change
275 spelling of "newly allocated" to "newly-allocated" in g_file_read_link
276 API doc to be more consistent with what is done in that file.
278 2008-10-01 David Zeuthen <davidz@redhat.com>
280 * README.in: Add "Notes about glib 2.20" section detailing the
281 ramifications of the patch from bug #528670.
283 2008-09-30 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>

288 (g_io_unix_seek), (g_io_unix_close), (g_io_unix_set_flags),
289 (g_io_unix_get_flags), (g_io_channel_new_file):
290 Like mclasen says: "well, thats the way errno works...,
291 save it or loose it". Save errno.
293 2008-09-30 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
296 * glib/tests/Makefile.am: Bypass gtester related stuff on Windows.
298 2008-09-30 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
301 * glib/gnulib/vasnprintf.c: Don't define _GNU_SOURCE on Windows,
302 as _GNU_SOURCE has unintended side effects when compiling against
303 newest mingw headers.
305 2008-09-26 Dan Winship <danw@gnome.org>
307 Bug 553447 – g_assert_no_error()
309 * glib/gtestutils.h (g_assert_no_error, g_assert_error): Macros to
310 assert that a GError is not set, or else is set to a particular
313 * glib/gtestutils.c (g_assertion_message_error): utility for

322 2008-09-26 Dan Winship <danw@gnome.org>
324 * glib/gthreadpool.c (wakeup_thread_marker): make this a "const
325 gpointer" rather than a gconstpointer to avoid warnings later
327 * glib/pcre/pcre_ucp_searchfuncs.c:
328 * glib/pcre/pcre_valid_utf8.c: #include "config.h"
330 * glib/tests/printf.c (test_d): fool gcc into not warning about
331 some printf format strings that we know are dubious

353 2008-09-25 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
355 Bug 553820 - gpoll.c: undeclared identifier
358 * glib/gpoll.c: Make the g_poll() function non-static also on
359 Windows. Prefix an underscore to the g_main_poll_debug variable
360 and make it non-static in gmain.c so that it can be used in
361 gpoll.c. Add back missing variable declaration.
363 2008-09-25 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
365 * glib/gspawn-win32.c (do_spawn_with_pipes) (do_spawn_directly):
366 Just ignore the child_setup function, never call it. The is no
367 situation in which it could be useful on Windows. Do print a
368 warning, like before.
370 * glib/gspawn.c (g_spawn_async_with_pipes): Corresponding change
373 2008-09-24 Sven Herzberg <sven@imendio.com>

391 * glib/gpoll.[ch] (g_poll): Move this out of gmain.c and make it part
392 of the public API. (Part of Bug 505361 - gunixinputstream.c assumes
395 2008-09-23 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
397 * glib/gmain.c (poll_rest) [Win32]: Fix embarrassing bug: I was
398 passing an incorrect third parameter to memmove(), had forgotten
399 to multiply by the size of the table entry. Just use a for loop
400 instead, clearer. Odd I didn't notice when testing this code.
402 2008-09-19 Hans Petter Jansson <hpj@novell.com>
404 Rewrite most of GHashTable to use open addressing with quadratic
405 probing instead of chaining. This has the potential to reduce memory
406 fragmentation significantly, while being slightly faster due to
407 better locality and no need to call alloc/free functions for nodes.
408 Benchmarks suggest it also uses less memory overall.
410 * glib/ghash.c (prime_mod): Table of suitable primes for
411 initial-probe distribution.
412 (g_hash_table_set_shift): New function.
413 (g_hash_table_find_closest_shift): New function.
414 (g_hash_table_set_shift_from_size): New function.
415 (g_hash_table_lookup_node_for_insertion): New function.
416 (g_hash_table_lookup_node): Rewritten to return node index instead of
417 pointer, use quadratic probe on flat table, and not return insertion
418 data. The latter saves some computation for read-only lookups.
419 (g_hash_table_remove_node): Rewrite to take a pointer directly to the
420 node structure to remove, and clear that. Remove unlinking code.
421 (g_hash_table_remove_all_nodes): Rewrite to not clear nodes
422 individually, but en masse using memset () after potentially calling
424 (iter_remove_or_steal): Use new data structure and algorithm. Vastly
425 simplified - now just a call to g_hash_table_remove_node ().
426 (g_hash_table_resize): New resize code, re-indexing with new prime
427 and cleaning up tombstones.
428 (g_hash_table_maybe_resize): Table may hold 8 buckets minimum, no less
429 than 1/4 load excluding tombstones, and no more than 15/16 load
430 including tombstones. These numbers are the results of a lot of
431 benchmarking with multiple complex applications, and should not be

435 (g_hash_table_lookup_extended)
436 (g_hash_table_insert_internal)
437 (g_hash_table_remove_internal)
438 (g_hash_table_foreach_remove_or_steal)
439 (g_hash_table_foreach)
441 (g_hash_table_get_keys)
442 (g_hash_table_get_values): Use new data structure and algorithm,
443 fairly trivial changes.
445 2008-09-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
447 * glib-zip.in: Look for man pages in share/man.
449 * glib/gutils.c (_glib_get_dll_directory)
450 * glib/gspawn-win32.c (do_spawn_with_pipes): Be a bit less
451 restrictive, look for the helper programs in the same folder where
452 the GLib DLL is, not necessarily in a "bin" subfolder of the top
453 GLib installation folder.
455 2008-09-18 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
457 * configure.in: Bump version to 2.19.0
459 * ChangeLog.pre-2-18: rotate ChangeLog
