1 1998-12-16 Joel Becker <jlbec@ocala.cs.miami.edu>
3 * glib.h, gscanner.c: changed func_data to user_data in
4 g_scanner_scope_symbol_foreach and associated friends, because
5 AIX headers #define func_data.
7 1998-12-16 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
9 * configure.in: Fixed stupid bug, that made
10 g_static_mutex_lock(*mutex) not work as expected.
12 * docs/glib-config.1: Updated to reflect the existence of gthread.
14 * gmain.c (g_main_poll_add_unlocking): Changed
15 g_main_poll_add_unlocked to g_main_poll_add_unlocking to match
16 semantic, (indeed, main_loop must be locked, when calling this
17 function). Removed the unlocking from the end of that function, as
18 that is not right. Made a 'HOLDS' comment above the function.
20 Wed Dec 16 03:16:58 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
22 * configure.in: version bump to 1.1.8, binary age 0, interface age 0.
24 * glib.h: changed g_lock() to G_LOCK(), g_unlock() to G_UNLOCK() and
25 g_trylock() to G_TRYLOCK(), since these are macros that expand to
26 nothing with --disable-threads.
27 changed G_LOCK_DEFINE() to G_LOCK_DECLARE() and introduced
28 G_LOCK_DECLARE_STATIC() to achive the results of static G_LOCK_DECLARE().
29 changed semantics of g_thread_supported to g_thread_supported() so it
30 can be used as a function like g_module_supported(). the actuall
31 definition is still a macro that expands into a variable for
32 performance reasons though.
33 various indentation and coding style cleanups.
35 * configure.in: added --enable-threads that defaults to yes.
37 * gmutex.c: changed tests g_thread_supported to g_thread_supported (),
38 changed variable settings of g_thread_supported
39 to g_threads_got_initialized.
53 changed s/g_lock/G_LOCK/, s/g_unlock/G_UNLOCK/,
54 s/static G_LOCK_DEFINE/G_LOCK_DECLARE_STATIC/.
56 Tue Dec 15 23:16:05 CST 1998 Shawn T. Amundson <amundson@gtk.org>
65 docs/glib-config.1: Incremented version
67 Wed Dec 16 22:29:48 1998 Joel Becker <jlbec@ocala.cs.miami.edu>
69 * configure.in: fixed the AIX thread checking.
70 Just an error on the wildcard. BTW, -D_THREAD_SAFE
73 Wed Dec 16 02:02:48 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
75 * glib-config.in (lib_glib): fixed library and flag ordering for
78 Tue Dec 15 17:17:46 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
80 * glib.h giounix.c giochannel.c: Use an "inheritance"
81 scheme for IO channel memory allocation.h
83 1998-12-15 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>
85 * gdate.c (g_date_prepare_to_parse): Solaris has a broken strftime
86 that produced garbage output for the test date I was using to
87 set up the parser. So use a different date that Solaris seems
90 1998-12-15 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
92 * configure.in: Dont complain, if --without-threads or
93 --with-threads=none is supplied; Test for pthread_attr_init
94 instead of pthread_cond_init, if threads seems to be supported by
95 standard glib. (CFLAGS): Use G_THREAD_CFLAGS for compiling of glib
98 * glib.h, gmutex.c: Changed private to private_key to avoid
99 problems when compiling with under C++.
101 1998-12-15 Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@Pobox.com>
104 bugfixes, correctly support --without-threads and friends
106 * gthread/testgthread.c: corrected 64-bitness problem
108 Tue Dec 15 10:40:09 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
110 * gnode.c glist.c gslist.c: Make sure all
111 calls to g_node_validate_allocator are within
112 current_allocator lock, so we have consistency
113 on that point. (Should not really matter,
114 but this way we match the comments)
116 * glist.c (g_list_free_1): Removed some lines
117 that should never have been committed. (For
120 1998-12-11 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
122 * gthread/gthread-nspr.c, configure.in: Added new default thread
123 implementation on top of the mozilla nspr library.
125 * gmem.c, gmessaged.c, gthread/gthread.c, gthread/gthread-*.c:
126 Changed GStaticMutex and GStaticPrivate in gmem.c and gmessages.c
127 into GMutex and GPrivate resp. to make error reporting and use of
128 gmem possible in most (not all, though) gthread functions. Also
129 initialized the modules via new init functions.
131 * configure.in: Fixed syntax bug in definition of type
134 * gthread/testgthread.c: Updated to work with nspr, but see note
135 there for remaining problems.
137 1998-12-10 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
139 * gmutex.c, glib.h: Now abort, if a mutex/cond/private is
140 allocated before the thread system is set up.
142 * gthread/gthread.c (g_thread_init): Removed g_thread_try_init(),
143 as it is not necessary. Changed the error message. Corrected logic
144 for g_thread_use_default_impl.
146 * gmutex.c (g_mutex_init): Keep the thread private data array
147 after calling g_thread_init().
149 1998-12-09 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
151 * gthread/testgthread.c (new_thread): Now also working for posix
152 threads; (wait_thread): Now a better implementation, that does not
155 * Made the thread related code follow GNU coding standard.
157 * Made a comment (HOLDS:) above each function, that expects the
158 given locks to be held.
160 * Changed try_lock to trylock throughout.
162 * glib.c: Eventually removed the #if 0'ed code for old GStaticMutex.
164 * glib.c: Corrected g_trylock macro for G_DEBUG_LOCKS.
166 * gmain.c (g_main_poll_add_unlocked): first take a new poll record
167 form the poll_free_list.
169 * gmem.c, gstrfuncs.c, gutils.c: Made it MT safe.
171 * gthraed/*.c: Added copyright headers.
173 * gthread/gthread-solaris.c: do not use g_log for errors, as g_log
174 uses these module and endless recursions might happen, just use a
175 plain fprintf(stderr,...).
177 * gthread/gthread.c (g_thread_try_init): Call g_mutex_init().
179 * gthread/testgthread.c: updated test program.
181 Tue Dec 8 18:49:56 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
183 * Start at adding thread-safety. (mostly work
184 of Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>)
186 - configure.in now looks for a system thread implementation.
187 Currently support is included for POSIX threads
188 and Solaris threads. The default support is built
189 into a separate library -lgthread.
191 - The thread implementation can be modified by passing
192 a vector of functions g_thread_init().
194 - The default or supplied functions are used to
195 implement a small set of thread functions for
196 mutexes, condition variables, and thread-private
199 - GLib now uses these functions to provide thread
200 safety. (In the sense that all global static
201 data is locked... individual structures must still
202 be locked by the caller.)
204 Sat Dec 12 19:08:59 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
206 * configure.in: always define G_HAVE_INLINE if __cplusplus is
207 defined, reported by Wan-Teh Chang <wtc@netscape.com>.
209 Thu Dec 10 21:49:39 CST 1998 Shawn T. Amundson <amundson@gtk.org>
211 * Released GLib 1.1.7
218 docs/glib-config.1: Increased version to 1.1.7
220 Wed Dec 9 22:44:44 EST 1998 Joel Becker <jlbec@ocala.cs.miami.edu>
222 * Removed #define of G_COMPILED_WITH_DEBUGGING from glibconfig.h
223 It shouldn't be there, and it was causing a double #define.
224 (config.h defines it also)
226 Tue Dec 8 12:18:38 CST 1998 Shawn T. Amundson <amundson@gtk.org>
228 * Released GLib 1.1.6
232 Mon Dec 7 23:10:41 PST 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
234 * gmain.c: fixes to #undef HAVE_POLL case
236 1998-12-02 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>
238 * gdate.c (g_date_set_month): If Julian is valid, we have to
239 update the dmy representation before setting the components
241 (g_date_set_day): Same.
242 (g_date_set_year): Same.
244 1998-12-02 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>
246 * testgdate.c, testgdateparser.c: Two new files. This is kind of
247 ugly code, but I want to go ahead and make the tests available.
248 It isn't contaminating any other code. :-) Since one of these
249 is interactive and the other takes a while to run, I've kept
250 them separate from testglib for now.
251 * Makefile.am: Build gdate test programs.
253 1998-12-02 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>
255 * gdate.c (g_date_valid): Rely on GDate::dmy and GDate::Julian
256 flags, rather than re-checking the validity of the actual
257 values. This should be the correct behavior, the old way was
260 * glib.h, gdate.c: Changed MDY to DMY throughout.
262 Sat Nov 28 12:53:47 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
264 * Makefile.am configure.in acconfig.h giochannel.c
265 glib.h glist.c gmain.c gutils.c:
267 - Revised GIOChannel to provide a generic virtual-function
269 - Added unix fd-based GIOChannel's
270 - Added generic main-loop abstraction
271 - Added timeouts and idle functions using main-loop abstraction.
273 1998-12-02 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
276 * gdate.c: changed `gpointer struct_tm_p' parameter of
277 g_date_to_struct_tm back to `struct tm *tm' and forward declared
278 `struct tm' in glib.h; yes, this is nice, we still need not
281 Tue Dec 1 23:01:44 CST 1998 Shawn T. Amundson <amundson@gtk.org>
287 docs/glib-config.1: Incremented versions to 1.1.6.
289 Wed Dec 2 02:10:59 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
291 * gdate.c: s/time_t/GTime/ and s/g_print/g_message/
294 * glib.h: removed #include <time.h>, changed time_t paramter of
295 g_date_set_time() to time_t, changed struct tm parameter of
296 g_date_to_struct_tm to `gpointer struct_tm_p'. yes, this is not
297 nice, but including time.h actually breaks a bunch of code.
299 * incremented GLib version to 1.1.6.
301 1998-11-30 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>
303 * gdate.c: New file, implements calendrical calculations.
305 * glib.h: Added declarations for GDate module.
307 Mon Nov 30 07:12:10 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
310 * ghook.c: added g_hook_list_marshal_check() to eventually destroy
311 hooks after they got marshalled.
313 Sun Nov 29 17:31:43 EST 1998 Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
315 * configure.in, Makefile.am, gmodule/Makefile.am:
316 Put -DFOO stuff into Makefile.am INCLUDES.
318 Sun Nov 29 14:17:09 PST 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
320 * configure.in: put debug -DFOO stuff into CPPFLAGS, not CFLAGS,
321 so CFLAGS can be overridden at make time properly
323 Sat Nov 28 01:23:25 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
325 * ghash.c: implemented incremental freezing facility.
327 Thu Nov 26 01:36:20 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
330 * ghash.c: reverted the g_hash_table_set_key_freefunc() addition,
331 since it's to specialized and needs to be resolved in a generic
334 Tue Nov 24 18:57:59 PST 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
336 * applied glib-tml-981120-0, change log appended below.
338 * glibconfig.h.win32: passthrough 64-bit constants unchanged, VC++
341 Fri Nov 20 22:26:43 1998 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
343 * glib.h: Moved MSC pragmas from glib.h to glibconfig.h.win32.
344 peer_offset field in WIN32 part of GIOChannel removed, need_wakeups
345 added. Added "extern" to __declspec(dllimport).
347 * gutils.c: Initialise need_wakeups.
349 * glibconfig.h.win32: Pragmas moved here. Define G_GINT64_CONSTANT.
351 * gmodule/gmodule.def: Added g_module_build_path.
353 * gscanner.c: (g_scanner_cur_value) Move initailisation of v
356 * glib.def: Added g_(s)list_sort.
358 * makefile.msc: A few more comments.
360 Tue Nov 24 14:05:47 EST 1998 Michael K. Johnson <johnsonm@redhat.com>
362 * glib.h: added GFreeFunc and g_hash_table_set_key_freefunc()
364 * ghash.c: added g_hash_table_set_key_freefunc() implementation.
365 Modified the prototypes of the functions g_hash_node_destroy() and
366 g_hash_nodes_destroy(), and changed the functions that call them
367 to match the new definitions.
368 This changes no external interfaces, and should create no binary
369 or source incompatibilities. It does add a member to the
370 GHashTable structure.
372 Tue Nov 24 09:40:00 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
374 * glib.h: removed the GListAllocator type and its g_*_allocator_*()
375 function variants (which weren't working anyways) in favour of a
376 generic GAllocator type. new functions:
377 g_allocator_new, g_allocator_free, g_slist_push_allocator,
378 g_slist_pop_allocator, g_list_push_allocator, g_list_pop_allocator,
379 g_node_push_allocator and g_node_pop_allocator.
381 * gstring.c: removed bogus slist allocator code.
382 * gtree.c: maintain own list of free tree nodes and don't waste
383 GSLists for that, removed bogus slist allocator code.
384 * glist.c: use GAllocators for node allocation.
385 * gslist.c: use GAllocators for node allocation.
386 * gnode.c: use GAllocators for node allocation.
388 * gdataset.c: cleanups wrt automatic initialization.
390 Mon Nov 23 10:03:58 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@gtk.org>
392 * glib.h garray.[ch]: added g_array_insert_vals() to
393 insert elements at an arbitrary index, and
394 g_array_insert_val() macro.
396 Sun Nov 22 17:07:03 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
399 * gslist.c: new function g_slist_copy() to duplicate a list with all its
401 * glist.c: new function g_list_copy.
403 Sat Nov 21 14:57:39 CST 1998 Shawn T. Amundson <amundson@gtk.org>
409 glib.spec: Updated to version 1.1.5
411 * Released GLib 1.1.5
413 Wed Nov 18 1998 Elliot Lee <sopwith@redhat.com>
415 * gdataset.c: There was a code path into g_data_set_internal
416 through a function (g_datalist_id_set_full). Neither function
417 checked for g_dataset_init having been run, but
418 g_data_set_internal used the memchunk. I added
419 a check into g_data_set_internal so it will do the
420 initialization if needed. (There's probably a better way.)
422 Mon Nov 16 07:48:06 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
424 * glib.h (g_bit_nth_msf): fixed off-by-one error, so we don't waste
425 a loop iteration if (-1) was passed, reported by Andreas Bombe
426 <andreas.bombe@munich.netsurf.de>.
428 Fri Nov 13 15:17:34 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
430 * glist.c gslist.c glib.h: Added g_list_sort() and
431 g_slist_sort() to merge sort GLists and GSLists.
432 Submitted by Sven Over <sven.over@ob.kamp.net>
435 * testglib.c: Test the new sort functions.
437 Wed Nov 11 23:23:22 EST 1998 Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
439 * Makefile.am : INCLUDES is the right way to add to CFLAGS, not
440 DEFS. Also there are bugs with '+=' in makefiles.
441 Got rid of DEFS line by moving G_LOG_DOMAIN setting into INCLUDES.
442 Removed redundant -I from INCLUDES.
444 Wed Nov 11 18:11:24 EST 1998 Gregory McLean <gregm@comstar.net>
446 * docs/*.sgml : Batch of new documentation that should be easier
447 to maintain and extend. Plus generate whatever sort of doc file
448 you would like. I didn't change the Makefile stuff as I'm not sure
449 what default doc type people want. Oh and this is all DocBook format.
452 Tue Nov 10 17:12:45 PST 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
454 * configure.in: use __extension__ for long long on gcc >= 2.8 and
455 egcs, and provide a G_GINT64_CONSTANT wrapper so -ansi -pedantic
458 * glib.h: make the endian x86 asm __const__ so the compiler can do
459 better optimizations. Also remove the cc clobber, these shouldn't
460 be changing condition codes. Ditch some redundant casts. Add an
461 optimization for 64-bit endian conversions in x86. Use constant
462 wrapper for the generic method.
464 * testglib.c: use constant wrappers for 64-bit constants
466 1998-11-04 Phil Schwan <pschwan@cmu.edu>
468 * configure.in: Added 'strncasecmp' to the list of functions to be
470 * glib.h: Added a prototype for 'g_strncasecmp'
471 * gstrfuncs.c: (g_strncasecmp) new function modeled closely after
474 Wed Nov 4 15:06:44 PST 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
476 * config.h.win32 (new file)
479 * makefile.msc: applied glib-tml-981104, win32 sync
481 1998-11-03 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
485 (g_array_remove_index): new function for removing an entry from an
486 array while preserving the order
487 (g_array_remove_index_fast): new function for removing an entry
488 from an array. the order might be distorted
489 (g_ptr_array_remove_index_fast, g_ptr_array_remove_fast): new
490 functions; working similiar to the above. (they have the semantic
491 of the old g_ptr_array_remove[_index] functions)
492 (g_ptr_array_remove_index, g_ptr_array_remove): new semantic. now
493 the order of the elements in the array is not changed
494 (g_byte_array_remove_index, g_byte_array_remove_index_fast): new
495 functions; byte_array wrapper for g_array_remove_index[_fast]
497 Sun Nov 1 23:00:18 PST 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
500 * configure.in: endian macros defined using the glibconfig.h
503 * ghook.c: casts for GHookFunc and GHookCheckFunc to avoid warnings
505 Sat Oct 31 20:14:22 PST 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
507 * applied glib-tml-981101-1 patch from Tor Lillqvist (ChangeLog
508 entry appended below)
512 * glib.h: use G_HAVE_GINT64, since HAVE_GINT64 is gone
515 * gscanner.c: #include <config.h> in here too, for HAVE_UNISTD_H
517 1998-11-01 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
519 * glib.def: Added the new functions.
522 (g_getenv): Better implementation on Win32. No loop necessary.
523 (g_get_any_init): Use P_tmpdir if defined as tmp directory. Don't
524 set home dir always to NULL on Win32. Don't use tmp directory as
525 last resort home directory, but return NULL if no home
526 directory is known (application must check).
528 * makefile.msc: Better touch command, just COPYing a single file
529 sets the timestamp from that file, which isn't what touching should
532 1998-10-31 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
534 Land glib-rrh-19981025-0.patch.
535 * Makefile.am (glibconfig.h): New rule.
536 (stamp-gc-h): New rule. Generate `glibconfig.h'.
537 * configure.in (AM_CONFIG_HEADER): It is now `config.h'.
538 (HAVE_BROKEN_WCTYPE): On Solaris, look for iswalnum in -lw before
539 concluding "broken wctype".
540 (glibconfig.h): Use AC_OUTPUT_COMMANDS to put generation code into
542 * glib.h: Remove a lot of tests and defines. All these have been
543 moved to `configure.in (glibconfig.h)'.
544 * gerror.c: Include <config.h>.
546 * gstrfuncs.c: Likewise.
547 * gutils.c: Likewise.
549 Sat Oct 31 05:08:26 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
551 * glib.h: removed old G_ENUM(), G_FLAGS(), G_NV() and G_SV() macros.
552 added macros G_STRUCT_OFFSET(), G_STRUCT_MEMBER_P() and
553 G_STRUCT_MEMBER() for handling structure fields through their offsets.
554 (struct _GHookList): added a hook_free function member, that can be used
555 to free additional fields in derived hook structures.
556 g_hook_free(): if hook_list->hook_free != NULL, call this function prior
557 to freeing the hook. (this functionality should have been there in the
558 first place, it just got forgotten as an implementation detail).
560 Wed Oct 28 00:49:32 PST 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
562 * glib.h: G_BREAKPOINT for alpha from Robert Wilhelm
563 <robert@physiol.med.tu-muenchen.de>
565 Tue Oct 27 07:25:53 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
569 (g_scanner_sync_file_offset): new function for file input.
570 rewind the filedescriptor to the current buffer position and blow
571 the file read ahead buffer. usefull for third party uses of our
572 filedescriptor, which hooks onto the current scanning position.
573 (this became neccessary with the implementation of buffered
575 (g_scanner_input_file):
576 (g_scanner_input_text): automatically blow the read ahead buffer.
577 (g_scanner_get_char): blow the read ahead buffer when the end of
578 input is reached, i.e. a '\000' char is read.
580 Tue Oct 27 00:27:31 PST 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
582 * glib.h: get rid of duplicate #g_htonl and friends in the
585 Mon Oct 26 22:42:01 PST 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
589 * makefile.msc: win32 patch from Tor Lillqvist (glib-tml-981027-0),
590 fixes some minor win32 buglets
592 Mon Oct 26 22:12:03 PST 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
594 * glib.h: reimplemented the endian stuff, using inline asm
595 for x86. #define g_htonl and friends.
597 * testglib.c: new tests for the endian stuff
599 * configure.in: care for AIX in gmodule linker flags test (from
600 Joel Becker <jlbec@raleigh.ibm.com>). Check $host_os for linux
601 instead of existance of /usr/include/linux
603 * gutils.c: buh-bye evil warning. Thou hast been #ifdef'd out
606 Tue Oct 27 03:00:50 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
608 * glib.h: removed dummy structure definitions for struct _GCache,
609 _GTree, _GTimer, _GMemChunk, _GListAllocator and _GStringChunk.
611 * gutils.c: implement glib's inline functions _after_ all include
612 statements have been processed.
613 removed Tor's MAXPATHLEN check since there already was one supplied
614 further down in this file.
615 (LibMain): special cased the #ifdef __LCC__ case for NATIVE_WIN32,
616 since lcc maybe used on other platforms as well. why in hell is this
618 (g_get_any_init): for windows, if the user name is supplied, use it as
620 in general, if there is no homedir specified, use the tmpdir that
623 * gtimer.c (g_timer_elapsed): changed a g_assert() statement to
626 * applied glib-tml-981020-0.patch for WIN32 portability, added some
627 comments and g_return_if_fail() statements, minor indentation fixes.
628 ChangeLog entry from Tor Lillqvist is appended.
630 * glib.h (struct dirent): use lower case structure members.
635 s/COMPILING_GLIB/GLIB_COMPILATION/
637 1998-10-20: Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
639 * README.win32 glib.def gmodule.def
640 * glibconfig.h.win32 gmodule/gmoduleconf.h.win32:
641 New files for the Windows port. The .def files list exported
642 symbols for the Microsoft linker and compatibles.
645 Added checks for some platform-dependent headers: pwd.h sys/param.h
646 sys/select.h sys/time.h sys/times.h unistd.h, and the function lstat.
649 Conditionalized inclusion of system-dependent headers. Changes
650 for Windows: no gdb to do a stack trace. Just call abort().
655 Added macros G_DIR_SEPARATOR, G_DIR_SEPARATOR_S for
656 platform-dependent file name syntax elements. Added macros
657 G_SEARCHPATH_SEPARATOR, G_SEARCHPATH_SEPARATOR_S for
658 platform-dependent search path syntax conventions.
660 Added pragmas for Microsoft C to make it more pedantic.
662 Marked GLib's global variables for export from DLL.
664 Added the function g_strescape that escapes backslashes.
666 Added functions g_path_is_absolute and g_path_skip_root to
667 handle platform-dependent file name syntax.
669 Added the function g_getenv that expands environment variables
670 that contain references to other environment variables, as is
671 typical on Windows NT.
673 Added the GIOChannel structure which is used to encapsulate the
674 IPC mechanism used by the GIMP's plug-ins, and possibly other
675 things later. On Unix a GIOChannel encapsulates just a file
676 descriptor. On Windows it contains a file handle from _pipe() and a
677 few other things related to the implementation of gdk_input_add
678 and GIMP plug-in communication. Subject to change.
680 Removed duplicate declarations of the version variables.
682 For the Microsoft compiler, declare own implementation of
683 ftruncate and the <dirent.h> functions.
686 Define a symbolic name for the profiling table size.
689 Conditionalized inclusion of unistd.h. On Windows, output using
693 Conditionalized inclusion of unistd.h. Added changes for
694 Microsoft C. Added CR to the skipped character set. Added small
695 workaround for MSC compiler bug in g_scanner_cur_value.
698 Added the function g_strescape, which escapes the backslash
699 character. Needed especially when printing Windows filenames.
702 Conditionalized inclusion of unistd.h and sys/time.h. Added
703 implementations for Windows.
706 Conditionalized inclusion of platform-dependent headers. Use
707 the platform-independent file name syntax macros.
708 Conditionalize code on platform-dependent features. Added the
709 functions g_path_is_absolute g_path_skip_root and g_getenv.
710 Added the GIOChannel-related functions. Added
711 compiler-dependent Unix compatibility functions for Windows.
713 * makefile.lcc makefile.msc:
714 New files. Compiler-specific makefiles for LCC-Win32 and
715 Microsoft C. Only Microsoft C is actually supported currently.
718 Added pathname check cases for Windows. Added workaround for
719 bug in the Microsoft runtime library. Improved some tests a bit.
721 Sun Oct 25 01:24:01 CST 1998 Shawn T. Amundson <amundson@gtk.org>
723 * Released GLib 1.1.4
727 * docs/glib-config.1:
728 * docs/glib.texi: Moved docs from gtk and created glib-config.1
729 from gtk-config.1 in gtk
733 * sanity_check: added in docs directory, change rule 'release'
734 to 'snapshot' and created a new 'release' rule for doing the
735 distribution. Added in a 'sanity' rule.
739 * INSTALL: Updated for the release
741 Sun Oct 25 07:30:10 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
744 (g_scanner_peek_next_char):
745 (g_scanner_get_char): no more characters are available if read() returns
746 anything less than 1, not only on 0 return.
749 * gstrfuncs.c: final API cleanup of string arrays to suit sopwith's
750 argument order requirements.
751 (g_strsplit): renamed from g_str_array_split().
752 (g_strjoinv): renamed from g_str_array_joinv(), string array is
753 now passed as last parameter. removed `const' qualifier from string
754 array pointer (again).
755 (g_strjoin): new function from sopwith to concatenate strings with
756 an additional seperator.
757 (g_strfreev): renamed from g_str_array_free.
759 Sat Oct 24 22:23:04 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
761 * gnode.c: small fix to g_node_children_foreach to make it work right.
762 From Paco Moya <paco@cadnotebk17.eecs.berkeley.edu>
764 Wed Oct 21 19:22:58 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
766 * configure.in (G_MODULE_HAVE_DLERROR): reverted part of the changes
767 from Sebastian Wilhelmi (1998-10-20). don't specify a specific loading
768 behaviour (i.e. RTLD_NOW) when we are not sure whether it is supplied.
769 changed the return value from (!f2 && f1) to (!f2 || f1) so we default
770 to not needing an underscore. reverted the extra plugin.c building,
771 because .lo files are not ELF libraries, this can't work. This needs
772 further investigation on Solaris...
774 Wed Oct 21 17:03:05 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
777 * gstrfuncs.c: API cleanups of the new g_str* functions for consistency
778 with the existing naming scheme for g_str* functions. grouped the g_str*
779 functions that will return a newly allocated string seperatedly. all of
780 the in_place arguments were skipped, the caller is supposed to pass a
781 g_strdup()ed string if he wants to retrive a new copy. indentation and
782 coding style fixups. added some g_return_if_fail() statements.
783 string array functions are prefixed with g_str_array_.
784 (g_strdelimit): return the modified string like all other g_str*
785 functions, that operate in place.
786 (g_strchug): renamed from g_str_chug(), removed in_place argument.
787 (g_strchomp): renamed from g_str_chomp(), removed in_place argument.
788 (g_strstrip): renamed from g_str_strip(), removed in_place argument.
789 (g_str_array_join): renamed from g_strconcatv(), since it actually
790 operates on a string array and has totaly different semantics from
791 g_strconcat(). check for separator != NULL, don't segfault if the first
792 string is NULL. removed the `const' from the string array that's passed,
793 so users can operate on gchar** string arrays.
794 (g_str_array_split): renamed from g_str_split() because we actually
795 produce a string array. reimplemented this function for efficiency.
796 removed macro aliases g_str_joinv and g_str_join.
798 1998-10-20 Elliot Lee <sopwith@redhat.com>
800 * glib.h, gstrfuncs.c: Move string join/split/free routines from
801 libgnome/gnome-string, rename, and add g_str_chug.
803 1998-10-20 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
805 * configure.in: made the check for needed _ in module's func-names
806 work on solaris. (G_MODULE_NEED_USCORE must be set outside
807 AC_CACHE_VAL, dlopen(0,0) refused to work on solaris).
809 Tue Oct 20 03:32:58 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
812 * acconfig.h: added test for endianness
814 * glib.h: #define endian macros for system and some conversions
817 Thu Oct 8 06:47:27 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
820 * gdataset.c: removed functions g_dataset_id_set_destroy and
821 g_datalist_id_set_destroy and macros g_dataset_set_destroy and
822 g_datalist_set_destroy.
823 added new functions g_dataset_id_remove_no_notify and
824 g_datalist_id_remove_no_notify plus associated macros
825 g_dataset_remove_no_notify and g_datalist_remove_no_notify, which
826 will remove a certain data portion without invokation of its destroy
827 notifier, this should only be used in very controled circumstances.
829 Wed Oct 7 05:31:24 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
832 removed the #pragma } statement after extern "C" {. use
833 (c-set-offset 'inextern-lang 0) to fixup emacs cc-mode indentation.
836 * ghook.c: API and code cleanups. changed the G_HOOK_ACTIVE and
837 G_HOOK_IN_CALL enum vals to G_HOOK_FLAG_ACTIVE and G_HOOK_FLAG_IN_CALL.
838 changed the G_HOOK_IS_ACTIVE() and G_HOOK_IS_IN_CALL() macros to
839 G_HOOK_ACTIVE() and G_HOOK_IN_CALL().
840 fixed the g_hook_find* functions, so they iterate over non-active
842 (g_hook_first_valid):
843 (g_hook_next_valid): added an extra argument gboolean may_be_in_call,
844 which indicates whether G_HOOK_IN_CALL() hooks are considered valid
845 or not. these two functions are meant as iterators for the hook list
846 invocation, so they need to a) provide functionality to implement
847 may_recurse bahaviour and b) only walk active hooks.
849 Tue Oct 6 14:29:47 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
851 * gmem.c (g_malloc0): fixed memory offsett when ENABLE_MEM_CHECK is
852 defined and ENABLE_MEM_PROFILE is not (patch from Martin Pool
853 <mbp@wistful.humbug.org.au>).
855 Sat Oct 3 01:18:10 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
859 (g_hook_list_invoke):
860 (g_hook_list_invoke):
861 (g_hook_list_marshal): properly handle the first valid hook to call,
862 it maybe IN_CALL already.
863 (g_hook_list_marshal): minor name change.
865 Fri Oct 2 23:21:21 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
868 * ghook.c: renamed GHook.id to GHook.hook_id so we don't get troubles
869 with ObjC which reserves "id" as a keyword (Raja R Harinath
870 <harinath@cs.umn.edu>).
872 Wed Sep 30 10:53:03 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
874 * Makefile.am: added ghook.c.
877 * ghook.c: generic callback maintenance functions.
879 * glib.h: define G_GNUC_UNUSED.
881 Fri Sep 25 00:04:37 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
883 * configure.in: version bump to 1.1.4, binary age 0, interface age 0.
885 * glib.h (struct _GScanner): dumped peeked_char and text_len in favour
886 of *text_end and *buffer for buffered read()s.
888 * gscanner.c: changed peeking and retrival of next character so we
889 have buffered reads. fixed minor bug with number parsing error
890 reporting. made some static!!! variables local ones (why did we use
891 static temporary variables in the lowlevel tokenization code anyways?).
893 Mon Sep 21 23:23:10 CDT 1998 Shawn T. Amundson <amundson@gtk.org>
895 * Released GLib 1.1.3
897 Mon Sep 21 07:43:13 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
899 * glib.h: added g_renew() which works as g_new() for g_realloc().
901 Mon Sep 21 02:22:12 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
903 * NEWS file update for upcoming release of GLib + GModule
904 version 1.1.3, binary age 0, interface age 0. (GModule uses
905 the same version numbers as GLib.)
907 * glib.h: swap the inclusion of of float.h and limits.h to work
908 around a egcs 1.1 oddity on Solaris 2.5.1 (fix provided by
909 Per Abrahamsen <abraham@dina.kvl.dk>).
912 * gscanner.c: renamed the GValue union to GTokenValue, this should
913 not affect source compatibility in most cases.
915 * ghash.c: added some g_return_if_fail() statements. make
916 g_hash_table_lookup_node() an inline function so we save an extra
917 function invokation on lookups.
919 Sun Sep 20 18:21:46 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
921 * ltmain.sh: Patch to libtool-1.2b to make --disable-static
924 Sun Sep 20 02:09:44 1998 Josh MacDonald <jmacd@axis.hip.berkeley.edu>
926 * glib.h: New function g_hash_table_foreach_remove is similar to
927 g_hash_table_foreach, but the callback's return value indicates
928 whether to remove the element (if TRUE) or not (if FALSE).
929 Returns the number of elements deleted.
931 Fri Sep 18 11:31:50 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
934 * gstrfuncs.c: added g_memdup implementation
936 Fri Sep 18 18:46:14 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
939 * gdataset.c: make the datalists a safe type (not using a generic
940 gpointer) by expecting a GData* argument in the g_datalist functions.
941 provide g_dataset_foreach() and g_datalist_foreach() functions that
942 allow a GDataForeachFunc function to walk the data lists.
943 (g_dataset_destroy_internal): made this function truely reentrant (i.e.
944 can be called from within destroy notifiers as well).
945 the *_foreach functions are _not_ reentrant (unless all the other
946 dataset and datalist functions).
948 Fri Sep 18 03:41:20 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
950 * gtree.c (g_tree_new): check for key_compare_func != NULL (reported
953 Thu Sep 17 18:55:46 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
955 * config.h.in: removed from repository
959 * mkinstalldirs: updated to latest automake version
961 Thu Sep 17 06:36:25 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
964 * gdataset.c: implemented g_datalist_* along the lines of g_dataset,
965 but operates on an opaque gpointer *datalist; pointer, e.g. for the
966 implementation of GtkObject named data.
967 we cache a certain portion of the already freed data entries now, to
968 gain a slight performance improve with data reallocation.
970 Tue Sep 15 14:57:30 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
972 * Makefile.am glib-config.in l*: Update to libtool-1.2b,
973 change library versioning scheme to drop LT_RELEASE
974 from the -l line, while keeping it in the soname.
976 Fri Sep 11 02:11:46 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
978 * glib.h: explicitely include the prototypes for inline functions
979 to cure gcc warnings for -Wmissing-prototypes.
981 Wed Sep 9 02:52:04 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
983 * configure.in: added -posix check for NeXTStep
985 Tue Sep 8 05:04:06 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
987 * glib.h: abandon the use of ATEXIT(), we keep the fallback
988 macros for backwards compatibility. people ought to use g_atexit().
990 * gutils.c (g_atexit): new function to take over the implementation
991 of ATEXIT. this function is guarranteed to succeed, similar to
994 Mon Sep 7 20:07:38 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
996 * configure.in: comment the -std1 check and save LIBS properly
998 Mon Sep 7 07:53:21 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1000 * configure.in: check for all three inline keywords individually.
1002 * glib.h: inlining hassle. for compilers that don't allow the `inline'
1003 keyword, mostly because of strict ANSI C compliance or dumbness, we try
1004 to fall back to either `__inline__' or `__inline'.
1005 we define G_CAN_INLINE, if the compiler seems to be actually *capable*
1006 to do function inlining, in which case inline function bodys do make
1007 sense. we also define G_INLINE_FUNC to properly export the function
1008 prototypes if no inlinig can be performed. we special case most of the
1009 stuff, so inline functions can have a normal implementation by defining
1010 G_INLINE_FUNC to extern and G_CAN_INLINE to 1.
1012 * ltconfig: (compiler PIC flag test): special case linux for non
1013 aout systems to honour lcc's position independant code (cases
1014 "linux*aout)" and "linux*)" got added). (this needs to go into
1015 libtool which does an advanced test, checking for __LCC__).
1017 * autogen.sh: take $CC=lcc into account by invoking automake with
1018 --include-deps so lcc isn't scared by gcc's auto-dependancy
1019 generation code. care about $ACLOCAL_FLAGS. optionally feature
1022 * minor fixups in other places to cure some of lcc's warnings.
1024 Sun Sep 6 19:08:53 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
1026 * configure.in: added -std1 check for ANSI compliance (from gtk)
1028 Sun Sep 6 12:31:50 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
1030 * glib.h: provide proper ATEXIT behavior on NeXTStep by !atexit
1032 Sat Sep 5 18:03:36 1998 Tom Tromey <tromey@cygnus.com>
1034 * gutils.c (GLIB_INLINE): Define.
1035 * glib.h (GLIB_INLINE): New define.
1036 (g_bit_nth_msf): Use it. Also, add prototype.
1037 (g_bit_storage): Likewise.
1038 (g_bit_storage): Likewise.
1040 Sat Sep 5 04:40:02 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1043 (g_chunk_new0): use g_mem_chunk_alloc0() to allocate the memchunk,
1044 so the correct size of the memchunk is allocated with 0's and not
1045 a memory portion of the size of the desired type.
1047 * gmem.c: new function g_mem_chunk_alloc0() which will initialize
1048 a memory area allocated with g_mem_chunk_alloc() with 0's.
1050 Wed Sep 2 19:13:28 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
1052 * garray.c glib.h (g_array_[ap/pre]pend_vals): make
1053 data argument const.
1055 Wed Aug 26 06:32:40 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1058 * gstrfuncs.c: new function g_strnfill() to return a new string
1059 of specified length, filled with a specific character.
1061 Tue Sep 1 23:46:31 1998 Josh MacDonald <jmacd@axis.hip.berkeley.edu>
1063 * testglib.c (main): Update the array tests. Reduce the number of
1064 iterations for the prepend test from 10000 to 100 since it is
1065 O(n^2) and was taking longer than I would like to wait.
1067 * garray.c: I've worked on the GArray interface, mostly. It was
1068 seriously broken before and I hate to do it, but this is going to
1069 break some code. It is important to do this now, because more and
1070 more people are starting to use glib and the interface was both
1071 broken and inconsistent. First, rename the _truncate functions of
1072 both the GArray and GPtrArray classes to _set_size, since this
1073 function can also be used to extend the arrays. GArray now
1074 accepts two more initialization arguments: clear and element_size.
1075 Instead of providing the type to each access function, the array
1076 now stores the element size. Clear, if set, causes the library to
1077 zero element's memory as the array expands. The major broken-ness
1078 here was that array->len was in bytes, not elements. Now, since
1079 the array knows its element size, array->len is correct and I have
1080 removed the g_array_length macro. The only macro which now
1081 accepts the type as an argument is g_array_index, which casts the
1082 element to the right type--this interface does not change. The
1083 append and prepend functions simply need the types removed.
1084 g_ptr_array_remove_index now returns the removed element.
1086 * gprimes.c (g_spaced_primes_closest): Move this function out of
1087 ghash.c and rename it from g_hash_closest_prime. Fix the primes
1088 so that they are actually prime (they weren't all -- isn't that
1091 Mon Aug 24 02:08:56 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1096 (g_vsprintf): removed this function which was not publically
1097 exported in glib.h. to export it, it should have been named
1098 differently in the first place, since its semantics differ from
1099 vsprintf(). apart from that, it was a possible cause for
1100 problems since it worked on a previously allocated memory area and
1101 was used in a lot places of glib. exporting it would have been a
1102 guararant for problems with threaded programs.
1103 (g_printf_string_upper_bound): exported this function to return
1104 a string size, guarranteed to be big enough to hold the fully
1105 expanded format+args string. added 'q', 'L' and 'll' flag handling.
1106 in fact, the newly allocated area is in most cases much bigger than
1108 (g_strdup_vprintf()): new function returning a newly allocated string
1109 containing the contents of *format and associated args (size is
1110 calculated with g_printf_string_upper_bound()).
1111 (g_strdup_printf): new function which wraps g_strdup_vprintf().
1113 * configure.in: check for va_copy() or __va_copy() alternatively.
1114 check whether va_lists can be copyied by value.
1116 * glib.h: provide a definition for G_VA_COPY.
1122 pass va_lists by value, not by reference, since this causes problems
1123 on platforms that implement va_list as as arrays. internaly, use
1124 G_VA_COPY (new_arg, org_arg); va_end (new_arg); to produce a second
1125 va_list variable, if multiple passes are required. changed all
1130 renamed g_debug() to g_on_error_query(), cleaned up a bit.
1131 renamed g_stack_trace() to g_on_error_stack_trace() since both
1132 functions cluttered different namespaces.
1133 there is an appropriate comment in glib.h now that explains the
1134 unix and gdb specific dependencies of both functions.
1135 removed g_attach_process().
1136 g_on_error_stack_trace() should probably be handled with caution,
1137 i've seem several different linux versions (2.0.x) become unstable
1138 after invokation of this function.
1140 1998-08-18: Elliot Lee <sopwith@redhat.com>
1142 * In gmem.c, add the ability to exclude memory chunks from the
1143 memory profiling information.
1145 Tue Aug 18 18:23:09 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
1148 * gstrfuncs.c: added g_strndup
1150 Tue Aug 18 04:40:17 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1153 * gmessages.c: new function g_log_set_always_fatal() to set an
1154 additional fatal_mask for log levels that are considered to be fatal
1155 globally (required by gtk). since this mask is not domain-associated,
1156 it is restricted to the log levels, introduced by glib itself.
1160 * gtree.c (g_tree_node_check):
1161 don't use g_print() calls for informational/debugging output,
1162 but log all this stuff through g_log() with G_LOG_LEVEL_INFO.
1163 libraries shouldn't use printf(), g_print() or g_printerr() at all.
1165 Tue Aug 18 02:46:44 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1168 * glib.h (__STRICT_ANSI__): if __STRICT_ANSI__ is defined, make
1169 `inline' a noop, since strict ANSI rules don't permit `inline'.
1171 Mon Aug 17 15:21:42 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1173 * grel.c: made private functions static.
1175 Sun Aug 16 23:23:46 CDT 1998 Shawn T. Amundson <amundson@gtk.org>
1177 * gmodule/Makefile.am: added gmodule-dl.c and gmodule-dld.c to
1179 * glib.spec: version = 1.1.3
1181 Mon Aug 17 01:46:14 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1183 * glib.m4: feature an extra MODULES parameter, so glib-config can
1184 be invoked with the "gmodule" argument.
1186 * glib.h: changed the log level to G_LOG_LEVEL_CRITICAL for all
1187 g_return*_if_fail statements, and made them issue a message
1188 like "assertion `%s' failed".
1190 * gmessages.c (g_logv): ugh, don't pass log_domain as NULL to
1193 Sun Aug 16 20:28:27 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1195 * version bump to 1.1.3, binary age 0, interface age 0.
1197 * glib.h: be nice to platforms that don't have gint64 and don't
1198 issue #warning on every compilation. since glib doesn't require
1199 gint64 itself, packages that need gint64 should test for this
1203 * gutils.c: added a new function g_vsnprintf().
1205 Sun Aug 16 Elliot Lee
1207 glib.h: #error out if we don't recognize the SIZEOF_VOID_P
1208 #warning if no gint64
1210 Fri Aug 14 16:41:53 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1212 * glib.h: added static inline functions for bit mask tests:
1213 g_bit_nth_lsf, g_bit_nth_msf and g_bit_storage.
1215 Fri Aug 13 14:23:37 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1219 revised the message handling system, which is now based on a new
1220 mechanism g_log*. most of the assertment macros got adapted to
1221 feature the new g_log() call with an additional specification of
1222 the log level in a preprocessor macro G_LOG_DOMAIN. if G_LOG_DOMAIN
1223 is undefined upon the includion of glib.h, it'll be defined with a
1224 value of (NULL) and thus preserves the original bahaviour for
1225 warning and error messages. the message handler setting functions
1226 for g_warning, g_error and g_message are only provided for backwards
1227 compatibility and might get removed somewhen.
1229 * Makefile.am: feature the G_LOG_DOMAIN macro to set the log domain
1230 to "GLib" upon compilation. we currently have to add this definition
1231 to the DEFS variable.
1232 * testglib.c: we need an ugly #undef G_LOG_DOMAIN at the start
1233 of this file currently, since automake doesn't support per target
1236 * glib.h: changed some gints to gbooleans, made a few const corrections,
1237 removed some superfluous G_STMT_START{}G_STMT_END wrappers, added some
1238 in other required places.
1242 (g_node_insert_before):
1244 (g_node_append_data):
1245 (g_node_prepend_data):
1246 (g_node_insert_data_before):
1247 (g_node_insert_data):
1249 return (node), so these macros/functions can be usefully chained with
1252 Mon Aug 10 17:56:11 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
1254 * glib.h: it's GTime now, and it's back!
1256 Mon Aug 10 02:17:19 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1258 * Makefile.am: minor hack to cause SUBDIRS (gmodule) to be build
1259 last. we do this by making all-recursive-am depend on all-am.
1261 Sun Aug 9 15:56:11 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1263 * configure.in: added GModule checks. generate files in gmodule/.
1264 * glib-config.in: support library specifications `glib' and `gmodule'.
1265 * Makefile.am: feature the gmodule/ subdir.
1267 Wed Aug 5 10:04:29 PDT 1998 Shawn T. Amundson <amundson@gtk.org>
1269 * Released GLib 1.1.2
1271 Wed Aug 05 01:15:36 1998 George Lebl <jirka@5z.com>
1273 * testglib.c: fix 64-bitness in g_prints, sizeof doesn't
1274 seem to return int so I cast it for printing, probably
1277 Tue Aug 4 19:54:06 PDT 1998 Shawn T. Amundson <amundson@gkt.org>
1279 * Released GLib 1.1.1
1281 Tue Aug 4 15:17:54 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1283 * configure.in: version bump to 1.1.1, binary age 1, interface age 0.
1286 * INSTALL: updates and fixes.
1287 * COPYING: include the GNU LGPL, rather than shipping an empty file.
1288 * AUTHORS: listed original authors here, and added people who made
1289 significant improvements to glib.
1292 * gutils.c: implement g_get_current_dir() which returns a newly
1293 allocated string, instead of a g_getcwd() variant that operates
1295 export glib_interface_age and glib_binary_age.
1296 as a convenience, macro definitions have been added for
1297 g_node_insert_data, g_node_insert_data_before, g_node_append_data and
1298 g_node_prepend_data.
1300 * testglib.c: minor cleanups, print current dir.
1302 Mon Aug 3 16:02:26 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1305 * gnode.c: change order of gpointer data; field in struct _GNode to
1306 be partly binary compatible with GList and GSList.
1308 1998-08-03 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
1310 * garray.c (g_ptr_array_remove_index): bugfix: index check for
1311 array has been wrong.
1313 Fri Jul 31 22:17:05 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1315 * testglib.c (g_node_test): added a GNode test.
1317 Fri Jul 31 09:08:16 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1319 * Makefile.am: compile gnode.c.
1322 * gnode.c: added implementation of n-way trees.
1324 * gtree.c (g_tree_traverse): added a warning to the switch() statement
1325 which says that G_LEVEL_ORDER is not implemented.
1327 Mon Jul 27 00:17:30 CDT 1998 Shawn T. Amundson <amundson@gtk.org>
1329 * Released GLib 1.1.0
1331 Mon Jul 27 01:02:27 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1333 * glib.h: #if 0'ed out the GTime definition, until it is definitively
1334 needed. #if 0'ed out the g_getcwd() version, because it is the wrong
1337 Sat Jul 25 16:09:00 1998 Mark Crichton <crichton@expert.cc.purdue.edu>
1339 * glib.h: gtime changed to g_time. gtime is used in
1340 /usr/include/time.h in NetBSD, causing multiple headaches.
1341 If this isn't the right way of fixing it.... ;)
1343 Thu Jul 23 00:29:14 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1346 * gscanner.c: new functions to make a scanner scope sensitive wrt
1348 g_scanner_scope_foreach_symbol, g_scanner_scope_lookup_symbol,
1349 g_scanner_scope_remove_symbol, g_scanner_scope_add_symbol and
1350 g_scanner_set_scope.
1351 g_scanner_add_symbol, g_scanner_remove_symbol and
1352 g_scanner_foreach_symbol are now aliases for scope 0.
1354 Mon Jul 20 23:05:34 1998 George Lebl <jirka@5z.com>
1356 * glib.h: typo fixed for alphas for gint64
1358 Tue Jul 14 09:05:18 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1361 * gutils.c: new fuction g_dirname() which returns a newlly
1364 Fri Jul 10 06:33:43 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1367 * gutils.h: added a bunch of utility/wrapper functions:
1368 g_basename(), g_getcwd(), g_get_user_name(), g_get_real_name(),
1369 g_get_home_dir(), g_get_tmp_dir(), g_get_prgname() and g_set_prgname().
1371 * gutils.c: removed all g_str* functions.
1372 * gstrfuncs.c: moved the bunch g_str* functions from gutils.c in this
1373 place. this file shall never include <unistd.h> to avoid clashes for
1374 some of the g_str* functions on some OSes.
1376 Fri Jul 10 00:29:03 EEST 1998 Lauri Alanko <nether@gimp.org>
1379 * ghash.c: Renamed g_hash_table_lookup_full to
1380 g_hash_table_lookup_extended to conform with naming conventions.
1382 Tue Jul 7 03:18:58 EEST 1998 Lauri Alanko <nether@gimp.org>
1385 * ghash.c: Generic cleanup, added a function:
1386 (g_hash_table_lookup_full): Return whether the lookup succeeded,
1387 and also retrieve the key and value. This allows one to
1388 distinguish between failed lookup and finding a NULL, and also
1389 allows one to free a key in the hash.
1391 Mon Jul 6 10:12:05 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
1393 * ltconfig: fix for properly detecting shared lib support on
1394 SunPro cc (taken from libtool 1.2.a)
1396 Sat Jul 4 13:38:52 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
1398 * glib.h: added g_array_length
1400 Tue Jun 30 11:58:25 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1402 * gscanner.c (g_scanner_unexp_token): take symbol_2_token into
1403 account. react on valid/invalid string pairs.
1405 Sat Jun 27 21:55:46 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
1407 * glib.m4: ftp.glib.org -> ftp.gtk.org, since glib.org isn't
1410 Fri Jun 19 03:11:02 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1412 * gdataset.c: removed g_dataset_try_key, g_dataset_force_id and
1413 g_dataset_retrive_key in favour of GQuarks.
1414 a GQuark is an numeric id wich is associated with a certain string.
1415 (g_quark_try_string): try to get the quark associated with this string,
1416 if the lookup failed return 0.
1417 (g_quark_from_string): get the associated quark for a string, if there
1418 isn't currently a GQuark associated with this string, then allocate a
1419 new quark and return that.
1420 (g_quark_from_static_string): like the above function, but the string
1421 isn't strdup()ed to save memory.
1422 (g_quark_to_string): get the string that is associated with a certain
1425 * gdataset.c (g_dataset_id_set_data_full): invoke the destroy function
1426 _after_ the new data has been setup.
1428 Thu Jun 18 02:35:21 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@gtk.org>
1430 * glib.h: Changed messages for g_return_[val]_if_fail to
1431 be somewhat more clear: assertion "blah" failed.
1433 1998-06-18 Federico Mena Quintero <federico@nuclecu.unam.mx>
1435 * testglib.c (main): Use GINT_TO_POINTER casts to remove compiler
1438 * grel.c: #include <string.h>
1440 Fri Jun 12 15:39:06 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1442 * glib.h (GScanner): cleanups of the structure fields (binary
1445 Fri Jun 12 00:39:28 1998 Josh MacDonald <jmacd@icw.EECS.Berkeley.EDU>
1447 * glib.h: add new hash and equal functions g_int_*. complement
1448 g_direct_hash with g_direct_equal.
1450 * grel.c: new file, GRelations implement tuples of N-N mappings.
1451 A comment in glib.h briefly describes the interface.
1453 * ghash.c: new function, g_hash_table_size
1455 * glib.h: new typedefs, gsize, gssize, gtime.
1457 * garray.c: new functions implementing a simplified GArray. This
1458 GPtrArray is an array of gpointers and has functions to add and
1459 remove elements, much like java.lang.Vector.
1461 * garray.c: new functions for the single-byte special case of
1462 GArray. The functions g_byte_array* operate on arrays of bytes.
1463 Internally, a GArray is used.
1465 * testglib.c: tests for g_ptr_array, g_byte_array, and g_relation...
1467 1998-06-11 Federico Mena Quintero <federico@nuclecu.unam.mx>
1469 * gdataset.c: #include <string.h>
1471 Thu Jun 11 04:15:31 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1474 * gdataset.c: new function g_dataset_retrive_key. adjusted prealloc
1475 sizes, to take up less space on initial allocation.
1477 1998-06-10 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
1479 * acinclude.m4: New file. Contains `libtool.m4' from libtool-1.2,
1480 the version from which glib's libtool forked. Needed for people
1481 who use post-1.2 alphas of libtool.
1482 * configure.in (enable_mem_check, enable_mem_profile): Replace
1483 `echo -n' with AC_MSG_CHECKING.
1484 (fd_set): Explain test for `fd_set' better.
1486 Wed Jun 10 19:29:51 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@gtk.org>
1488 * Makefile.am glib.m4 configure.in:
1490 Moved out from GTK+; added AM_PATH_GLIB macro.
1492 Wed Jun 10 12:56:07 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@gtk.org>
1494 * glib.h: renamed g_const_pointer => gconstpointer
1496 Tue Jun 9 17:47:33 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@gtk.org>
1498 * glib.h: Remove #error - HP/UX.
1500 Sat May 23 19:00:01 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@gtk.org>
1502 gtk-rrh-980412-0.patch (Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>)
1503 gtk-jbuhler-980516-0 (Jeremy Buhler <jbuhler@cs.washington.edu>) ]
1505 * glib.h ghash.c gstring.c gdataset.c gutils.c:
1506 - Added new typedef g_const_pointer; expunged all incorrect
1507 uses of 'const gpointer'.
1508 - Fixed up warnings that that created,
1509 - Changed GHashFunc and GCompareFunc to take g_const_pointer
1510 arguments. (Necessary, but will cause warnings in existing
1512 - Added other new const in harmless positions.
1514 Mon Jun 8 01:06:47 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1516 * glib.h: added enum-helper macros for code generation.
1517 added G_BREAKPOINT().
1519 Sat Jun 6 14:09:22 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
1521 * gmem.c: commented out MEM_PROFILE and MEM_CHECK, causing weird
1524 Wed Jun 3 06:19:42 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1526 * glib.h (g_chunk_new0): convenience macro, for allocating small chunks
1527 like g_chunk_new() with additional 0 initialization.
1529 Mon Jun 1 04:43:27 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1531 * ghash.c (g_hash_table_insert): wrote a comment describing why
1532 a hash node's key should not also get replaced when overriding
1535 Tue May 26 18:30:06 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1537 * glib.h (g_string_sized_new): new function to controll the preallocated
1540 * glib.h (g_strreversed): new function to reverse a string.
1542 Mon May 18 22:14:39 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@gtk.org>
1543 (Yasuhiro SHIRASAKI <joke@awa.tohoku.ac.jp> : gtk-joke-980517-0.patch)
1545 * gutils.c: Restored a missing prototype for g_vsprintf.
1547 Wed May 20 05:02:26 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1549 * glib.h: conditionally define NULL, FALSE and TRUE.
1550 (g_mem_chunk_create): new convenience macro as a short hand for
1552 (g_chunk_free): new convenience macro to be consistent with g_chunk_new.
1554 Tue, 19 May 1998 09:00:02 +0200 Paolo Molaro <lupus@debian.org>
1556 * gcompletion.c: generic functions for com<TAB>pletion...
1558 Sun May 17 10:48:27 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1560 * gscanner.c (g_scanner_unexp_token): provide usefull default
1561 specifications for identifier_spec and symbol_spec.
1563 * glib.h: new functions g_slist_nth_data and g_list_nth_data to return
1564 the data of the nth element in the list.
1566 Fri May 15 22:31:49 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1568 * gscanner.c (g_scanner_unexp_token): removed spurious va_end(args)
1569 that for some reason didn't produce a compiler warning on my machine
1570 (is va_end defined to nothing for i386?).
1572 Fri May 15 12:32:08 1998 rodo <doulik@karlin.mff.cuni.cz>
1574 * gscanner.c: replaced some snprintf with g_snprintf
1576 Fri May 15 00:56:59 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1578 * glib.h: further support for gcc function attributes: G_GNUC_FORMAT,
1579 G_GNUC_NORETURN and G_GNUC_CONST.
1581 * gscanner.c (g_scanner_stat_mode): changed stat() to lstat().
1582 (g_scanner_msg_handler): "\n" at end of line!
1583 (g_scanner_foreach_symbol): new function to iterate over the symbol
1584 table (GScanner does value-wrapping).
1586 Thu May 14 04:14:12 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1588 * glib.h: typedef gint gboolean;
1589 this is needed to provide portability with big-endian platforms (e.g.
1590 try sizeof(bool) for c++ on big-endians - it's 4).
1591 this is also needed to maintain some_union.d_gint==some_union.d_gboolean.
1592 plus, gint to gboolean casts and vice versa need to be possible without
1595 Tue May 12 19:22:58 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@gtk.org>
1597 * glib/glib.h: Added macros G[U]INT_TO_POINTER() and
1598 GPOINTER_TO_[U]INT for storing small integers integers
1601 * glib/testglib.c: Print sizeof() results
1602 as g_print("%ld", (glong)sizeof(foo)), to deal with
1603 size_t being long on Alpha's.
1605 Tue May 12 16:54:15 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@gtk.org>
1606 (James A <jamesa@demon.net> : gtk-jamesa-980511-4.patch)
1608 * glib.h gstring.c gmessages.c: Added some missing
1611 * gutils.c (g_strsignal.c): Added missing return statements.
1613 Mon May 11 21:11:54 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@gtk.org>
1615 * gutils.c gmessages.c: Moved g_error, g_warning, g_message and
1616 g_print from gutils.c to new file gmessages.c, to avoid having to
1617 include <unistd.h> in gutils.c which was causing problems for the
1618 g_strsignal implementation on FreeBSD boxes.
1620 Mon May 11 09:53:43 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1622 * configure.in: preserve automake CFLAGS.
1624 * Makefile.am: fully rename the created library to libglib-1.1.la.
1625 this means we need to change certain portions of the Makefile.am on
1626 major/minor version bumps.
1628 * ltmain.sh: the -release option is not required anymore.
1630 * glib.h: provide G_GNUC_FUNCTION and G_GNUC_PRETTY_FUNCTION to
1631 avoid conditionals. unconditionally define NULL, TRUE, FALSE, MAX,
1632 MIN, ABS and CLAMP, these macros might be screwed from other headers.
1634 Mon May 11 01:44:10 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1636 * gdataset.c: new file, gdatasets implement the object data
1637 mechanism from GtkObject. a generic data pointer is associated with
1638 a certain location and a key id.
1640 Sat May 9 20:08:12 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@gtk.org>
1642 * glib/gmem.c: Experimentally restore GMemChunk
1643 to its primeval state - where mem areas are
1644 freed incrementally instead of searching the tree
1645 every time a mem area is completely empty. Also,
1646 always keep one mem chunk around. (Reduced calls
1647 to malloc() a lot, but doesn't really improve
1648 performance significiantly)
1650 Thu May 7 08:17:28 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1652 * glib.h (G_GNUC_PRINTF):
1653 (G_GNUC_SCANF): macros to facilitate the printf/scanf format argument
1656 * gstring.c: const corrections, string!=NULL checks at function entry.
1657 (g_string_down): new function for tolower(3) conversion.
1658 (g_string_up): new function for toupper(3) conversion.
1660 * gutils.c: const corrections.
1661 (g_strdown): g_string_down() counterpart.
1662 (g_strup): g_string_up() counterpart.
1664 * gscanner.c (g_scanner_unexp_token):
1666 (g_scanner_warn): new functions to let a scanner put out warnings
1667 or errors, especially to react on unexpected tokens.
1670 (g_slist_index): find out about about the position of a
1671 certain data pointer.
1672 (g_slist_position): find out about about the position of a
1676 (g_list_index): find out about about the position of a
1677 certain data pointer.
1679 Thu May 7 05:14:19 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1681 * ltmain.sh: added a new commandline flag -postfix similar to -release,
1682 but will immediately change the library name.
1684 * Makefile.am: specify -postfix and -version-info
1686 * configure.in: version bump to 1.1.0. added GLIB_INTERFACE_AGE and
1687 GLIB_BINARY_AGE. calculate LT_* variables for libtool.
1689 Fri May 1 16:36:08 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@gtk.org>
1691 * gutils.c: (g_strcasecmp). Check for isupper before
1692 taking tolower, and account for macroized tolower.
1694 * gutils.c (g_error): Check for recursion.
1696 1998-04-27 Elliot Lee <sopwith@cuc.ml.org>
1698 * glist.c (g_list_position): New function to find the position of
1699 a link in a list - should be the inverse of g_list_nth(), but

1702 Thu Apr 30 21:41:30 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@gtk.org>
1704 * gstring.c : Check arguments more carefully,
1705 (gtk-draco-980423-1.patch; ramsey@rhrk.uni-kl.de)
1707 Tue Apr 7 19:36:48 1998 Owen Taylor <owt1@cornell.edu>
1709 * gutils.c (g_direct_compare): Removed, because that's what

1712 Mon Apr 6 18:43:25 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1714 * gscanner.c (g_scanner_get_token_ll): fixed a bug that caused floats

1746 Sun Mar 15 07:13:34 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gimp.org>
1748 * gutils.c: changed *_handler variables to be named glib_*_handler,

1751 Sat Mar 14 17:47:43 1998 Owen Taylor <owt1@cornell.edu>
1753 * Makefile.am: Don't refer to current directory as $(top_builddir)

1758 * Makefile.am (configincludedir): Moved glibconfig.h to
1759 $(pkglibdir)/include
1761 Tue Mar 10 02:03:12 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gimp.org>
1763 * gscanner.c (g_scanner_destroy_symbol_table_entry): new function to
1764 free symbol table entries upon destruction

1790 Mon Feb 16 23:05:06 1998 Owen Taylor <owt1@cornell.edu>
1792 * glist.c (g_list_insert_sorted): Changed function
1793 so elements are always inserted, even if they compare
1796 Thu Feb 12 22:48:11 1998 Owen Taylor <owt1@cornell.edu>

1833 Tue Jan 27 01:38:52 PST 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
1835 * gslist.c: fixed a really, really lame error. g_slist_insert
1836 didn't hook the data in! Reworked the routine to reflect the
1837 functionality of g_list
1839 Wed Jan 21 01:13:25 1998 Tim Janik <timj@psynet.net>

1855 Fri Jan 9 20:03:46 1998 Tim Janik <timj@psynet.net>
1857 * gutils.c (g_strerror): changed message for EAGAIN from
1858 "no more processes" to "try again" since EAGAIN is used with
1859 functions else than fork().
1861 * gscanner.c (g_scanner_get_token_ll): use strtol() instead of
1862 strtoul() to avoid conflicts with solaris.
1864 * merged the glib portions from Jan 2 to Jan 7 out of gtk+/ChangeLog
1867 Wed Jan 7 02:14:30 PST 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>

1878 (Bitfields must be int or unsigned int?)
1880 Fri Jan 2 23:52 PST 1998 Jay Painter <jpaint@serv.net>
1884 * glib.h: reverted glibconfig.h and glib.h files back to the
1885 way they were before my ugly hack.

1891 * gscanner.c: new file for GScanner: Flexible lexical scanner for
1893 * glib_pre2.h: added GScanner includes. added g_strconcat and g_strtod.
1894 gutils.c (g_strconcat): new function for string concatenation of NULL
1895 terminated parameter list.
1896 (g_strtod): new function to perform best string to double conversion
1897 with or without consideration of the current locale.
1899 Mon Dec 15 19:33:58 1997 Tim Janik <timj@psynet.net>
1901 * glist.c: minor optimizations:
1902 (g_list_append): `if' optimized for common code path, commented out
1903 unneccessary `assert', saved one variable assignment.
1904 (g_list_prepend): saved two (conditioned) variable assignment.
1905 (g_list_insert): saved one (conditioned) variable assignment,
1906 saved one variable assignment.
1907 (g_list_remove): `if' optimized for common code path, saved two
1908 variable assignments by using `g_list_free_1' (which is even
1909 faster) instead of `g_list_free'.
1910 (g_list_reverse): saved allocation of one variable, saved one
1911 variable assignment.
1913 Wed Dec 10 23:27:20 1997 Tim Janik <timj@psynet.net>
1917 * glib.h: this file now gets concatenated by makeglib_h from
1918 glib_pre1.h and glib_pre2.h to merge in glibconfig.h wich got
1919 created by configure (done by Jay Painter).
1921 * glib_pre2.h: the g_assert*() and g_return_*_fail() macros
1922 are wrapped by G_STMT_START and G_STMT_END now, to avoid conflicts
1923 when used within if (...) g_macro(); else ... conditionals.
1925 Tue Dec 17 13:14:07 1996 Peter Mattis <pmattis@charnley.HIP.Berkeley.EDU>
1927 * glib.h: Changed 'g_return_if_fail' and 'g_return_val_if_fail' to
1928 not call 'g_string' but to simply stringify the
1929 expression. Calling 'g_string' causes the expression to be
1930 expanded which is undesired.
1932 Sun Dec 1 01:30:48 1996 Peter Mattis <pmattis@charnley.HIP.Berkeley.EDU>
