5 * glib/gthread.c: const correctness fixes, found
6 by Arjan van de Ven and gcc.
8 2005-11-16 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
10 * docs/reference/glib/tmpl/unicode.sgml: Correct typo on mentioning
11 @G_UNICODE_BREAK_UNKNOWN that should be #G_UNICODE_BREAK_UNKNOWN.
13 2005-11-09 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
15 * glib/guniprop.c: Use bit hacks instead when checking a general
16 category value against multiple values.
18 * glib/gutf8.c: Change ISO10646 to Unicode in docs.
20 2005-11-10 Simos Xenitellis <simos@gnome.org>
22 * configure.in: Added tt (Tatar) to ALL_LINGUAS.
24 2005-11-05 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
26 * glib/giowin32.c (g_io_win32_set_flags): Don't call g_warning().
27 (#320688) Instead set error and return failure.
29 2005-11-07 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
31 * glib/gmain.c (g_main_dispatch): Don't call cb_funcs->unref
32 while holding the context lock. (#320886, Andy Wingo)
34 2005-11-07 Billy Biggs <vektor@dumbterm.net>
36 * tests/refcount/Makefile.am: Add a missing reference to libglib
37 in the LDADD for this test.
39 2005-11-07 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
41 * glib/gmem.c (g_allocator_new): We need to set n_preallocs to a
42 nonzero value, otherwise GTK+ 2.8 breaks when compiled against
43 GLib 2.9. (#320755, Luca Ferretti)
45 2005-11-04 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
47 * glib/Makefile.am: Apply a patch from Behdad Esfahbod to
48 use a faster lookup table for g_unichar_get_mirror_char().
49 * glib/gmirroringtable.h: The new table.
50 * glib/gunichartables.h: Remove bidi_mirroring_table.
51 * glib/gen-unicode-tables.pl: Don't generate the mirroring
53 * glib/glib-mirroring-tab/*: Sources for the program
54 which generated gmirroringtable.h.
56 * glib/glist.c: Avoid some code duplication.
58 * glib/gscanner.h: Include gdataset.h. (#320322)
60 * glib/gdebug.h: add new GDebugFlag for fatal_criticals
61 * glib/gmessages.c: (_g_debug_init): handle G_DEBUG=fatal_criticals,
62 to help find critical warnings in applications. (#320017,
65 2005-11-02 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
67 * glib/glib.symbols: Remove large amount of trailing whitespace
68 from one line. Remove #ifdef G_UNDEFINED from around
69 g_hash_table_new and g_hash_table_new_full symbols, what was the
70 purpose of that? Add the g_slice functions.
72 Tue Nov 1 16:24:20 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
74 * glib/gmem.[hc]: prepared deprecation of GMemChunk and GAllocator.
75 added g_slice_*() API to allocate and cache small bits of memory.
76 an actuall allocator implementation for g_slice_*() is still pending.
78 * glib/gthread.[hc]: changes from a patch by Matthias Clasen.
79 changed GRealThread list to use in-structure *next; fields instead
80 of GSList, in order for thread iteration to not depenend on g_slice_*()
82 _g_thread_mem_private_get():
83 _g_thread_mem_private_set(): added accessors for private memory,
84 needed because the ordinary GPrivate implementation relies on GArray
85 and GSList and therefore indirectly on working g_slice_*() allocations.
88 g_thread_foreach(): new public API function to loop over all existing threads.
102 removed GAllocator and free list usages and accompanying locks.
103 use g_slice_*() API to allocate and cache small bits of memory.
105 * glib/ghook.h: removed GMemChunk field from public API.
108 * glib/glist.h: deprecate allocator API, provide _free1() for consistency.
110 * glib/gnode.h: deprecate allocator API.
112 * glib/gmain.c: reordered GPollRec fields so g_slice_free_chain() can
113 be used for poll rec lists.
115 * glib/grel.c: removed mem chunk usage, and allocated tuples via g_slice_*().
116 g_relation_destroy(): free all tuples from the all_tuples hash table,
117 this effectively maintains the life time track keeping of tuples.
118 g_relation_delete_tuple(): free tuples which are removed from the
119 all_tuples hash table. this fixes a temporary leak that was present
120 in the memchunk code until the destruction of the relation.
122 2005-10-29 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
124 * tests/convert-test.c: Add some tests for conversions between
125 UTF-8, UCS-4 and UTF-16.
127 * glib/gutf8.c (g_utf8_to_ucs4, g_utf8_to_utf16): Fix handling
128 of len == -1, noticed by Morten Welinder.
130 2005-10-27 Erdal Ronahi <erdal.ronahi@gmail.com>
132 * configure.in: Added ku (Kurdish) to ALL_LINGUAS
134 2005-10-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
136 * glib/gutf8.c (g_ucs4_to_utf8): Don't set items_read twice
137 in the error case, and add some documentation. (#319806, Morten
140 2005-10-19 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
142 * configure.in: Use AC_CHECK_FUNCS for _NSGetEnviron, to get the
143 config.h symbol automatically. Fixes bug #313731.
145 2005-10-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
147 * glib/gwin32.c (g_win32_get_package_installation_directory):
148 Return a g_strdup()ed copy of the value stored in the hash table,
149 so that it can be g_free()d without leaving a dangling pointer in
150 the hash table. (#319232)
152 2005-10-06 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
154 * glib/gunicollate.c (g_utf8_collate_key_for_filename): Handle
155 all-zero sequences correctly. (#317930, Sebastien Bacher)
157 2005-10-05 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
159 * glib/gmarkup.c (g_markup_escape_text): Doc addition
161 * Makefile.am: Add Collation tests.
163 * tests/collate/*: Inputs and expected outputs for collation tests.
165 * tests/run-collate-tests.sh: Script to run collation tests.
167 * tests/unicode-collate.c (main): Rework slightly to make
168 it usable in unit tests. Also test g_utf8_collate_key_for_filename().
170 2005-10-01 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
172 * docs/reference/glib/tmpl/unicode.sgml:
173 * glib/gen-unicode-tables.pl:
175 * glib/gunichartables.h:
177 * tests/casefold.txt:
178 * tests/casemap.txt: Updated to Unicode 4.1. There are five new
179 GUnicodeBreakType types. That may break some applications, like
182 2005-09-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
184 * glib/gstrfuncs.c (g_ascii_strtoull): Add details to the
185 docs. (#314393, Matthew F. Barnes)
188 * glib/gprintf.h: Remove g_snprintf() and g_vsnprintf(), since
189 they are already declared in glib.h. This doesn't break documented
190 use of gprintf.h, but should probably be pointed out in the
191 release notes for 2.10. (#314232, Behdad Esfahbod)
193 Tue Sep 20 13:16:04 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
195 * glib/gpattern.c (g_pattern_ph_match): applied significant recursion
196 complexity optimization, based on a patch from Matthias Clasen.
198 * tests/patterntest.c: more tests, mostly from matthias.
200 2005-09-20 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
202 * glib/gqueue.c (g_queue_insert_sorted): Correct the docs.
203 (#316703, Mark Drago)
205 Mon Sep 19 17:23:23 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
207 * glib/gpattern.c: applied a patch from matthias which checks on the
208 upper bound of GPatternSpec length to optimize matches.
211 * tests/patterntest.c: added more match cases.
213 2005-09-16 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
215 * glib/gstrfuncs.c (g_ascii_strcasecmp, g_ascii_strncasecmp): Add
216 warning to doc comment that these functions should not be used on
217 encodings like CP932.
219 2005-09-14 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
221 * tests/keyfile-test.c: Add a test for grup names of length 1.
223 * glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_line_is_group): Accept group names
224 of length 1. (#316309)
226 2005-09-12 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
228 * glib/gmarkup.c (g_markup_escape_text): Clarify docs.
230 2005-09-11 Sebastian Wilhelmi <seppi@seppi.de>
232 * tests/refcount/Makefile.am (INCLUDES): Link the the refcount
233 tests to the system thread library $(G_THREAD_LIBS). Fixes #313744
236 2005-09-11 Kjartan Maraas <kmaraas@gnome.org>
238 * glib/gmain.c: (g_child_watch_prepare), (g_child_watch_check),
239 (child_watch_helper_thread): Remove some dead code. Closes
242 2005-09-07 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
244 * glib/Makefile.am: Create also a console version of the
245 gspawn-win32-helper program, gspawn-win32-helper-console.exe.
246 It's otherwise identical to gspawn-win32-helper.exe, except marked
247 as a console application (linked without the -mwindows option).
249 * glib/gspawn-win32.c (do_spawn_directly, do_spawn_with_pipes):
250 Drop the dont_wait parameter. Its truth value correlated 100% with
251 the NULLness of the exit_status parameter anyway, so it's enough
252 to check whether exit_status is NULL. Invert the sense of the
253 dont_return_handle parameter and rename it to do_return_handle, to
254 make the code easier to read by avoiding double negations.
256 (g_spawn_sync_utf8, g_spawn_async_with_pipes_utf8): Modify calls
257 to do_spawn_with_pipes() accordingly.
259 (do_spawn_with_pipes): If we have a console, use the console
260 version of the helper program, otherwise use the GUI one. This
261 avoids extra console windows opening up in some situations. (In
262 case a console application uses the GUI gspawn-win32-helper.exe to
263 spawn another console application we would get a separate console
264 for the spawned console application).
266 * glib-zip.in: Distribute also gspawn-win32-helper-console.exe.
268 2005-09-05 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
270 * glib/gmappedfile.c (g_mapped_file_new): Report an error
271 if the file is too large. (#315275, Kjartan Maraas)
273 * glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_load_from_fd): The return value
274 of read() is signed. (#315273, Kjartan Maraas)
276 2005-08-31 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
278 * glib/gutils.h: Wrapping atexit() is a bad idea on Windows, where
279 the EXE and each DLL have their own atexit function chains.
281 #define g_atexit as atexit instead. This means it has a
282 better chance of doing what the caller wants. For instance,
283 gtkhtml calls g_atexit() registering a function in gtkhtml
284 itself. This caused a crash when g_atexit() was implemented as a
285 function in the GLib DLL. The gtkhtml DLL was already unloaded by
286 the time the GLib DLL got unloaded.
288 * glib/gutils.c: #undef the #define mentioned above, to also get a
289 real g_atexit() into the DLL for backward compatibility. Document
290 the Windows behaviour of g_atexit(), and document the varying ways
291 atexit() can behave in the context of dynamically loaded modules
294 2005-08-31 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
298 * glib/gdataset.c: Add string interning functions.
300 2005-08-28 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
302 * glib/giochannel.c: Unify some near-duplicate strings. (#314654,
305 2005-08-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
307 * configure.in: Bump version to 2.9.0
309 2005-08-25 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
311 Make also the g_spawn*() functions take parameters in the GLib
312 file name encoding, i.e. UTF-8, on Windows. Has no impact on Unix
313 API or ABI. Like the other GLib API that was earlier changed to
314 use UTF-8 on Windows, the names of the functions that take UTF-8
315 have _utf8 suffixes added by using preprocessor macros in the
316 header file. The old names are kept for functions with the old
317 behaviour, taking parameters in the system codepage, for DLL ABI
320 * glib/gspawn.h: On Win32 add the suffix _utf8 to the names of the
321 g_spawn*() functions.
323 * glib/gspawn-win32.c: Use wide-char API on NT-based
324 Windows. Convert parameters from UTF-8 to wide chars (NT) or
325 system codepage (Win9x) and call the C library _wspawn*() or
326 spawn*() functions respectvely. Add DLL ABI stability versions
327 that take parameters in the system codepage.
329 * glib/gspawn-win32-helper.c: On NT-based Windows use the
330 wide-char versions of argv and envp, and use wide-char API to
331 change directory and spawn the program to run. Remove the verbose
332 debugging output, it was too complex to modify for the wide-char
333 features. (Just add temporary debugging printouts if needed, no
334 need to have them permanently in the source.)
336 * glib/gspawn.c: Corresponding documentation updates.
338 * glib/glib.symbols: Corresponding changes: Mark the ABI stability
339 symbols as PRIVATE, add the new _utf8-suffixed ones.
341 2005-08-24 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
343 * glib/gtypes.h (G_MININT64): Cast the constant to gint64; it is
344 guint64 otherwise and that can produce warnings about comparison
345 between signed and unsigned.
347 2005-08-23 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
349 * glib/gutils.c: Fix the crt_externs.h include.
351 2005-08-23 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
353 * NEWS: Fix spelling of my first name.
355 2005-08-23 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
359 * === Released 2.8.1 ===
363 2005-08-20 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>
365 * glib/makefile.msc.in : link with ws2_32.lib
367 2005-08-18 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
369 * configure.in: Check for <sys/wait.h>
371 * glib/gbacktrace.c: Include <sys/wait.h> on if HAVE_SYS_WAIT_H.
373 2005-08-18 Ross Burton <ross@burtonini.com>
376 Optimise single-character insertions.
381 * tests/string-test.c:
382 Add tests for new optimisation, and fix a leak.
384 2005-08-17 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
386 * configure.in: Check for crt_externs.h and _NSGetEnviron.
388 * glib/gutils.c: On Darwin, include crt-externs.h and
389 define environ using _NSGetEnviron(). (#313731)
391 2005-08-16 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
393 * glib/gutils.c (g_get_any_init): Move the body of the big if...
394 (g_get_any_init_do): ... to this new function.
395 (g_get_any_init): Declare as inline.
396 (g_get_any_init_locked): New inline function, does the locking.
397 Make use of these two throughout the code.
399 2005-08-15 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
401 * glib/gbacktrace.c (g_on_error_stack_trace): Wait for
402 the child process and then simply return. This makes
403 The "S" option work as documented in g_on_error_query().
404 (#313125, Matthew F. Barnes)
406 * glib/gunicode.h: Update the link to Unicode category
407 values. (#313369, Behnam Esfahbod)
409 * glib/gqueue.c (g_queue_find_custom): Clarify docs
410 a little. (#311727, Tristan van Berkom)
412 * glib/abicheck.sh, gobject/abicheck.sh: Make the
413 check work on ia64 too, where some symbols ended up
414 in yet another section.
