3 * tests/gobject/ifacecheck.c (test_iface_base_init): Don't
4 double-free base interface members.
6 * tests/Makefile.am: Remove duplicate variable.
8 Thu Dec 1 17:32:46 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
10 * glib/gslice.[hc]: new slice allocator implementation.
12 * tests/slice-test.c: added random slice allocation test.
14 * glib/gthread.[hc]: removed newly added private thread mem API.
19 * glib/gmem.c: divided glib threading initialisation into three phases,
20 initialisation where private keys and messaging are not available (only
21 needed by gmem.c), initialisation without messaging but private keys
22 available (gslice.c, gmessage.c), and full fledged initialisers that
23 server the rest of glib. initialisation functions got renamed to reflect
24 the limitations of their corresponding phases.
26 * glib/gmem.c: removed memchunk code, defer allocations to
29 * glib/gmem.[hc]: removed g_slice_* skeletons.
31 * glib/glib.symbols: added g_slice_* symbols.
33 * configure.in: check for availability of posix_memalign(3), memalign(3)
36 * glib/Makefile.am: added gslice.[hc].
38 2005-12-01 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
40 * glib/gstdio.c (g_stat): In the Win32 implementation, strip
41 trailing slash(es) for non-root folders. stat() fails if non-root
42 folders are specified with trailing slashes. It's too much hassle
43 to demand that callers strip such slashes themselves, especially
44 as it is easy to get it wrong and strip the slash of a root
46 (g_rename): On NT-based Windows, use MoveFileEx() with
47 MOVEFILE_REPLACE_EXISTING to better match Unix behaviour.
49 2005-11-28 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
51 Fix G_STMT_START / G_STMT_END on Solaris. (#321972,
54 * configure.in: Check whether do { } while (0) works.
56 * glib/gmacros.h: Use do { } while (0) for G_STMT_START /
57 G_STMT_END if it works.

68 2005-11-27 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
70 * glib/gunicollate.c (g_utf8_collate_key_for_filename):
71 Don't read beyond len. (#322520, Christian Persch)
73 Wed Nov 23 17:34:01 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
75 * glib/gdataset.c: access datalist flags via atomic pointer access
76 functions, instead of acquiring the dataset lock. this is faster and
77 also matches the atomic pointer readouts in gdatalistprivate.h and
78 direct pointer modifications required by gobject.c.
80 Wed Nov 23 13:35:31 2005 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
82 * glib/gdataset.c: streamlined initialization code somewhat,
83 removed GData node cache.
85 2005-11-22 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
87 * glib/ghash.c (g_hash_table_ref):
88 (g_hash_table_unref): Mark these as new API.
90 Avoid double locking in g_intern_string (#322133,
93 * glib/gdataset.c (g_quark_from_string_internal): New
94 internal function which factors out common parts of
95 g_quark_from[_static]_string.
96 (g_quark_from_string, g_quark_from_static_string):
97 Use g_quark_from_string_internal.
98 (g_intern_string, g_intern_static_string): Use
99 g_quark_from_string_internal, and only take the
101 (g_quark_new): Don't store the strings shifted by -1
102 in the g_quarks array.
103 (g_quark_to_string): Adapt to the previous change.
105 Tue Nov 22 14:04:26 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
109 g_hash_table_new_full(): create hash tables with a ref count of 1.
110 g_hash_table_ref(): atomically ref_count+=1
111 g_hash_table_unref(): atomically ref_count-=1, destroys hash table
112 when refcount reaches 0.
113 g_hash_table_destroy(): just destroy keys and values, unref by 1.
114 g_hash_table_insert():
115 g_hash_table_replace(): assert ref_count>0.
118 * glib/gatomic.c: added 'volatile' qualifier to all atomic pointer and
121 2005-11-20 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
123 * glib/guniprop.c (g_unichar_get_mirror_char): Remove unused
124 variables. (#321984, Andrew Paprocki)
126 2005-11-18 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>

147 * glib/gdate.c (g_date_set_time_t):
148 (g_date_set_time_val): Add functions to set a date from
149 a time_t and from a GTimeVal.
150 (g_date_set_time): Deprecate. (#314067, Roger Leigh)
153 * tests/utf8-pointer.c: Unit tests for g_utf8_pointer_to_offset
154 and g_utf8_offset_to_pointer.
156 * glib/gutf8.c (g_utf8_pointer_to_offset)
157 (g_utf8_offset_to_pointer): Handle negative offsets, and use
158 "stutter stepping" for going backwards. (#320638, Larry
163 * glib/gthread.c: const correctness fixes, found
164 by Arjan van de Ven and gcc.
166 2005-11-16 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
168 * docs/reference/glib/tmpl/unicode.sgml: Correct typo on mentioning
169 @G_UNICODE_BREAK_UNKNOWN that should be #G_UNICODE_BREAK_UNKNOWN.
171 2005-11-09 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
173 * glib/guniprop.c: Use bit hacks instead when checking a general
174 category value against multiple values.
176 * glib/gutf8.c: Change ISO10646 to Unicode in docs.
178 2005-11-10 Simos Xenitellis <simos@gnome.org>
180 * configure.in: Added tt (Tatar) to ALL_LINGUAS.
182 2005-11-05 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
184 * glib/giowin32.c (g_io_win32_set_flags): Don't call g_warning().
185 (#320688) Instead set error and return failure.
187 2005-11-07 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
189 * glib/gmain.c (g_main_dispatch): Don't call cb_funcs->unref
190 while holding the context lock. (#320886, Andy Wingo)
192 2005-11-07 Billy Biggs <vektor@dumbterm.net>
194 * tests/refcount/Makefile.am: Add a missing reference to libglib
195 in the LDADD for this test.
197 2005-11-07 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
199 * glib/gmem.c (g_allocator_new): We need to set n_preallocs to a
200 nonzero value, otherwise GTK+ 2.8 breaks when compiled against
201 GLib 2.9. (#320755, Luca Ferretti)
203 2005-11-04 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
205 * glib/Makefile.am: Apply a patch from Behdad Esfahbod to
206 use a faster lookup table for g_unichar_get_mirror_char().
207 * glib/gmirroringtable.h: The new table.
208 * glib/gunichartables.h: Remove bidi_mirroring_table.
209 * glib/gen-unicode-tables.pl: Don't generate the mirroring
211 * glib/glib-mirroring-tab/*: Sources for the program
212 which generated gmirroringtable.h.
214 * glib/glist.c: Avoid some code duplication.
216 * glib/gscanner.h: Include gdataset.h. (#320322)
218 * glib/gdebug.h: add new GDebugFlag for fatal_criticals
219 * glib/gmessages.c: (_g_debug_init): handle G_DEBUG=fatal_criticals,
220 to help find critical warnings in applications. (#320017,
223 2005-11-02 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
225 * glib/glib.symbols: Remove large amount of trailing whitespace
226 from one line. Remove #ifdef G_UNDEFINED from around
227 g_hash_table_new and g_hash_table_new_full symbols, what was the
228 purpose of that? Add the g_slice functions.
230 Tue Nov 1 16:24:20 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
232 * glib/gmem.[hc]: prepared deprecation of GMemChunk and GAllocator.
233 added g_slice_*() API to allocate and cache small bits of memory.
234 an actuall allocator implementation for g_slice_*() is still pending.
236 * glib/gthread.[hc]: changes from a patch by Matthias Clasen.
237 changed GRealThread list to use in-structure *next; fields instead
238 of GSList, in order for thread iteration to not depenend on g_slice_*()
240 _g_thread_mem_private_get():
241 _g_thread_mem_private_set(): added accessors for private memory,
242 needed because the ordinary GPrivate implementation relies on GArray
243 and GSList and therefore indirectly on working g_slice_*() allocations.
246 g_thread_foreach(): new public API function to loop over all existing threads.
260 removed GAllocator and free list usages and accompanying locks.
261 use g_slice_*() API to allocate and cache small bits of memory.
263 * glib/ghook.h: removed GMemChunk field from public API.
266 * glib/glist.h: deprecate allocator API, provide _free1() for consistency.
268 * glib/gnode.h: deprecate allocator API.
270 * glib/gmain.c: reordered GPollRec fields so g_slice_free_chain() can
271 be used for poll rec lists.
273 * glib/grel.c: removed mem chunk usage, and allocated tuples via g_slice_*().
274 g_relation_destroy(): free all tuples from the all_tuples hash table,
275 this effectively maintains the life time track keeping of tuples.
276 g_relation_delete_tuple(): free tuples which are removed from the
277 all_tuples hash table. this fixes a temporary leak that was present
278 in the memchunk code until the destruction of the relation.
280 2005-10-29 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
282 * tests/convert-test.c: Add some tests for conversions between
283 UTF-8, UCS-4 and UTF-16.
285 * glib/gutf8.c (g_utf8_to_ucs4, g_utf8_to_utf16): Fix handling
286 of len == -1, noticed by Morten Welinder.
288 2005-10-27 Erdal Ronahi <erdal.ronahi@gmail.com>
290 * configure.in: Added ku (Kurdish) to ALL_LINGUAS
292 2005-10-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
294 * glib/gutf8.c (g_ucs4_to_utf8): Don't set items_read twice
295 in the error case, and add some documentation. (#319806, Morten
298 2005-10-19 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
300 * configure.in: Use AC_CHECK_FUNCS for _NSGetEnviron, to get the
301 config.h symbol automatically. Fixes bug #313731.
303 2005-10-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
305 * glib/gwin32.c (g_win32_get_package_installation_directory):
306 Return a g_strdup()ed copy of the value stored in the hash table,
307 so that it can be g_free()d without leaving a dangling pointer in
308 the hash table. (#319232)
310 2005-10-06 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
312 * glib/gunicollate.c (g_utf8_collate_key_for_filename): Handle
313 all-zero sequences correctly. (#317930, Sebastien Bacher)
315 2005-10-05 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
317 * glib/gmarkup.c (g_markup_escape_text): Doc addition
319 * Makefile.am: Add Collation tests.
321 * tests/collate/*: Inputs and expected outputs for collation tests.
323 * tests/run-collate-tests.sh: Script to run collation tests.
325 * tests/unicode-collate.c (main): Rework slightly to make
326 it usable in unit tests. Also test g_utf8_collate_key_for_filename().
328 2005-10-01 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
330 * docs/reference/glib/tmpl/unicode.sgml:
331 * glib/gen-unicode-tables.pl:
333 * glib/gunichartables.h:
335 * tests/casefold.txt:
336 * tests/casemap.txt: Updated to Unicode 4.1. There are five new
337 GUnicodeBreakType types. That may break some applications, like
340 2005-09-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
342 * glib/gstrfuncs.c (g_ascii_strtoull): Add details to the
343 docs. (#314393, Matthew F. Barnes)
346 * glib/gprintf.h: Remove g_snprintf() and g_vsnprintf(), since
347 they are already declared in glib.h. This doesn't break documented
348 use of gprintf.h, but should probably be pointed out in the
349 release notes for 2.10. (#314232, Behdad Esfahbod)
351 Tue Sep 20 13:16:04 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
353 * glib/gpattern.c (g_pattern_ph_match): applied significant recursion
354 complexity optimization, based on a patch from Matthias Clasen.
356 * tests/patterntest.c: more tests, mostly from matthias.
358 2005-09-20 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
360 * glib/gqueue.c (g_queue_insert_sorted): Correct the docs.
361 (#316703, Mark Drago)
363 Mon Sep 19 17:23:23 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
365 * glib/gpattern.c: applied a patch from matthias which checks on the
366 upper bound of GPatternSpec length to optimize matches.
369 * tests/patterntest.c: added more match cases.
371 2005-09-16 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
373 * glib/gstrfuncs.c (g_ascii_strcasecmp, g_ascii_strncasecmp): Add
374 warning to doc comment that these functions should not be used on
375 encodings like CP932.
377 2005-09-14 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
379 * tests/keyfile-test.c: Add a test for grup names of length 1.
381 * glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_line_is_group): Accept group names
382 of length 1. (#316309)
384 2005-09-12 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
386 * glib/gmarkup.c (g_markup_escape_text): Clarify docs.
388 2005-09-11 Sebastian Wilhelmi <seppi@seppi.de>
390 * tests/refcount/Makefile.am (INCLUDES): Link the the refcount
391 tests to the system thread library $(G_THREAD_LIBS). Fixes #313744
394 2005-09-11 Kjartan Maraas <kmaraas@gnome.org>
396 * glib/gmain.c: (g_child_watch_prepare), (g_child_watch_check),
397 (child_watch_helper_thread): Remove some dead code. Closes
400 2005-09-07 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
402 * glib/Makefile.am: Create also a console version of the
403 gspawn-win32-helper program, gspawn-win32-helper-console.exe.
404 It's otherwise identical to gspawn-win32-helper.exe, except marked
405 as a console application (linked without the -mwindows option).
407 * glib/gspawn-win32.c (do_spawn_directly, do_spawn_with_pipes):
408 Drop the dont_wait parameter. Its truth value correlated 100% with
409 the NULLness of the exit_status parameter anyway, so it's enough
410 to check whether exit_status is NULL. Invert the sense of the
411 dont_return_handle parameter and rename it to do_return_handle, to
412 make the code easier to read by avoiding double negations.
414 (g_spawn_sync_utf8, g_spawn_async_with_pipes_utf8): Modify calls
415 to do_spawn_with_pipes() accordingly.
417 (do_spawn_with_pipes): If we have a console, use the console
418 version of the helper program, otherwise use the GUI one. This
419 avoids extra console windows opening up in some situations. (In
420 case a console application uses the GUI gspawn-win32-helper.exe to
421 spawn another console application we would get a separate console
422 for the spawned console application).
424 * glib-zip.in: Distribute also gspawn-win32-helper-console.exe.
426 2005-09-05 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
428 * glib/gmappedfile.c (g_mapped_file_new): Report an error
429 if the file is too large. (#315275, Kjartan Maraas)
431 * glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_load_from_fd): The return value
432 of read() is signed. (#315273, Kjartan Maraas)
434 2005-08-31 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
436 * glib/gutils.h: Wrapping atexit() is a bad idea on Windows, where
437 the EXE and each DLL have their own atexit function chains.
439 #define g_atexit as atexit instead. This means it has a
440 better chance of doing what the caller wants. For instance,
441 gtkhtml calls g_atexit() registering a function in gtkhtml
442 itself. This caused a crash when g_atexit() was implemented as a
443 function in the GLib DLL. The gtkhtml DLL was already unloaded by
444 the time the GLib DLL got unloaded.
446 * glib/gutils.c: #undef the #define mentioned above, to also get a
447 real g_atexit() into the DLL for backward compatibility. Document
448 the Windows behaviour of g_atexit(), and document the varying ways
449 atexit() can behave in the context of dynamically loaded modules
452 2005-08-31 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
456 * glib/gdataset.c: Add string interning functions.
458 2005-08-28 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
460 * glib/giochannel.c: Unify some near-duplicate strings. (#314654,
463 2005-08-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
465 * configure.in: Bump version to 2.9.0
467 2005-08-25 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
469 Make also the g_spawn*() functions take parameters in the GLib
470 file name encoding, i.e. UTF-8, on Windows. Has no impact on Unix
471 API or ABI. Like the other GLib API that was earlier changed to
472 use UTF-8 on Windows, the names of the functions that take UTF-8
473 have _utf8 suffixes added by using preprocessor macros in the
474 header file. The old names are kept for functions with the old
475 behaviour, taking parameters in the system codepage, for DLL ABI
478 * glib/gspawn.h: On Win32 add the suffix _utf8 to the names of the
479 g_spawn*() functions.
481 * glib/gspawn-win32.c: Use wide-char API on NT-based
482 Windows. Convert parameters from UTF-8 to wide chars (NT) or
483 system codepage (Win9x) and call the C library _wspawn*() or
484 spawn*() functions respectvely. Add DLL ABI stability versions
485 that take parameters in the system codepage.
487 * glib/gspawn-win32-helper.c: On NT-based Windows use the
488 wide-char versions of argv and envp, and use wide-char API to
489 change directory and spawn the program to run. Remove the verbose
490 debugging output, it was too complex to modify for the wide-char
491 features. (Just add temporary debugging printouts if needed, no
492 need to have them permanently in the source.)
494 * glib/gspawn.c: Corresponding documentation updates.
496 * glib/glib.symbols: Corresponding changes: Mark the ABI stability
497 symbols as PRIVATE, add the new _utf8-suffixed ones.
499 2005-08-24 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
501 * glib/gtypes.h (G_MININT64): Cast the constant to gint64; it is
502 guint64 otherwise and that can produce warnings about comparison
503 between signed and unsigned.
505 2005-08-23 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
507 * glib/gutils.c: Fix the crt_externs.h include.
509 2005-08-23 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
511 * NEWS: Fix spelling of my first name.

539 * tests/string-test.c:
540 Add tests for new optimisation, and fix a leak.
542 2005-08-17 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
544 * configure.in: Check for crt_externs.h and _NSGetEnviron.
546 * glib/gutils.c: On Darwin, include crt-externs.h and
547 define environ using _NSGetEnviron(). (#313731)
549 2005-08-16 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
551 * glib/gutils.c (g_get_any_init): Move the body of the big if...
552 (g_get_any_init_do): ... to this new function.
553 (g_get_any_init): Declare as inline.
554 (g_get_any_init_locked): New inline function, does the locking.
555 Make use of these two throughout the code.
557 2005-08-15 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
559 * glib/gbacktrace.c (g_on_error_stack_trace): Wait for
560 the child process and then simply return. This makes
561 The "S" option work as documented in g_on_error_query().
562 (#313125, Matthew F. Barnes)
564 * glib/gunicode.h: Update the link to Unicode category
565 values. (#313369, Behnam Esfahbod)
567 * glib/gqueue.c (g_queue_find_custom): Clarify docs
568 a little. (#311727, Tristan van Berkom)
570 * glib/abicheck.sh, gobject/abicheck.sh: Make the
571 check work on ia64 too, where some symbols ended up
572 in yet another section.
