34 and g_utf8_offset_to_pointer.
36 * glib/gutf8.c (g_utf8_pointer_to_offset)
37 (g_utf8_offset_to_pointer): Handle negative offsets, and use
38 "stutter stepping" for going backwards. (#320638, Larry
43 * glib/gthread.c: const correctness fixes, found
44 by Arjan van de Ven and gcc.
46 2005-11-16 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
48 * docs/reference/glib/tmpl/unicode.sgml: Correct typo on mentioning

51 2005-11-09 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
53 * glib/guniprop.c: Use bit hacks instead when checking a general
54 category value against multiple values.

58 2005-11-10 Simos Xenitellis <simos@gnome.org>
60 * configure.in: Added tt (Tatar) to ALL_LINGUAS.
62 2005-11-05 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
64 * glib/giowin32.c (g_io_win32_set_flags): Don't call g_warning().
65 (#320688) Instead set error and return failure.
67 2005-11-07 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
69 * glib/gmain.c (g_main_dispatch): Don't call cb_funcs->unref
70 while holding the context lock. (#320886, Andy Wingo)
72 2005-11-07 Billy Biggs <vektor@dumbterm.net>
74 * tests/refcount/Makefile.am: Add a missing reference to libglib
75 in the LDADD for this test.
77 2005-11-07 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
79 * glib/gmem.c (g_allocator_new): We need to set n_preallocs to a
80 nonzero value, otherwise GTK+ 2.8 breaks when compiled against
81 GLib 2.9. (#320755, Luca Ferretti)
83 2005-11-04 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
85 * glib/Makefile.am: Apply a patch from Behdad Esfahbod to
86 use a faster lookup table for g_unichar_get_mirror_char().
87 * glib/gmirroringtable.h: The new table.
88 * glib/gunichartables.h: Remove bidi_mirroring_table.
89 * glib/gen-unicode-tables.pl: Don't generate the mirroring

92 which generated gmirroringtable.h.
94 * glib/glist.c: Avoid some code duplication.
96 * glib/gscanner.h: Include gdataset.h. (#320322)
98 * glib/gdebug.h: add new GDebugFlag for fatal_criticals
99 * glib/gmessages.c: (_g_debug_init): handle G_DEBUG=fatal_criticals,
100 to help find critical warnings in applications. (#320017,
103 2005-11-02 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
105 * glib/glib.symbols: Remove large amount of trailing whitespace
106 from one line. Remove #ifdef G_UNDEFINED from around
107 g_hash_table_new and g_hash_table_new_full symbols, what was the
108 purpose of that? Add the g_slice functions.
110 Tue Nov 1 16:24:20 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
112 * glib/gmem.[hc]: prepared deprecation of GMemChunk and GAllocator.
113 added g_slice_*() API to allocate and cache small bits of memory.
114 an actuall allocator implementation for g_slice_*() is still pending.
116 * glib/gthread.[hc]: changes from a patch by Matthias Clasen.
117 changed GRealThread list to use in-structure *next; fields instead
118 of GSList, in order for thread iteration to not depenend on g_slice_*()
120 _g_thread_mem_private_get():
121 _g_thread_mem_private_set(): added accessors for private memory,
122 needed because the ordinary GPrivate implementation relies on GArray
123 and GSList and therefore indirectly on working g_slice_*() allocations.
126 g_thread_foreach(): new public API function to loop over all existing threads.
140 removed GAllocator and free list usages and accompanying locks.
141 use g_slice_*() API to allocate and cache small bits of memory.
143 * glib/ghook.h: removed GMemChunk field from public API.
146 * glib/glist.h: deprecate allocator API, provide _free1() for consistency.
148 * glib/gnode.h: deprecate allocator API.
150 * glib/gmain.c: reordered GPollRec fields so g_slice_free_chain() can
151 be used for poll rec lists.
153 * glib/grel.c: removed mem chunk usage, and allocated tuples via g_slice_*().
154 g_relation_destroy(): free all tuples from the all_tuples hash table,
155 this effectively maintains the life time track keeping of tuples.
156 g_relation_delete_tuple(): free tuples which are removed from the
157 all_tuples hash table. this fixes a temporary leak that was present
158 in the memchunk code until the destruction of the relation.
160 2005-10-29 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
162 * tests/convert-test.c: Add some tests for conversions between
163 UTF-8, UCS-4 and UTF-16.
165 * glib/gutf8.c (g_utf8_to_ucs4, g_utf8_to_utf16): Fix handling
166 of len == -1, noticed by Morten Welinder.
168 2005-10-27 Erdal Ronahi <erdal.ronahi@gmail.com>
170 * configure.in: Added ku (Kurdish) to ALL_LINGUAS
172 2005-10-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
174 * glib/gutf8.c (g_ucs4_to_utf8): Don't set items_read twice
175 in the error case, and add some documentation. (#319806, Morten
178 2005-10-19 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
180 * configure.in: Use AC_CHECK_FUNCS for _NSGetEnviron, to get the
181 config.h symbol automatically. Fixes bug #313731.
183 2005-10-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
185 * glib/gwin32.c (g_win32_get_package_installation_directory):
186 Return a g_strdup()ed copy of the value stored in the hash table,
187 so that it can be g_free()d without leaving a dangling pointer in
188 the hash table. (#319232)
190 2005-10-06 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
192 * glib/gunicollate.c (g_utf8_collate_key_for_filename): Handle
193 all-zero sequences correctly. (#317930, Sebastien Bacher)
195 2005-10-05 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
197 * glib/gmarkup.c (g_markup_escape_text): Doc addition
199 * Makefile.am: Add Collation tests.
201 * tests/collate/*: Inputs and expected outputs for collation tests.
203 * tests/run-collate-tests.sh: Script to run collation tests.
205 * tests/unicode-collate.c (main): Rework slightly to make
206 it usable in unit tests. Also test g_utf8_collate_key_for_filename().
208 2005-10-01 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
210 * docs/reference/glib/tmpl/unicode.sgml:
211 * glib/gen-unicode-tables.pl:
213 * glib/gunichartables.h:
215 * tests/casefold.txt:
216 * tests/casemap.txt: Updated to Unicode 4.1. There are five new
217 GUnicodeBreakType types. That may break some applications, like
220 2005-09-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
222 * glib/gstrfuncs.c (g_ascii_strtoull): Add details to the
223 docs. (#314393, Matthew F. Barnes)
226 * glib/gprintf.h: Remove g_snprintf() and g_vsnprintf(), since
227 they are already declared in glib.h. This doesn't break documented
228 use of gprintf.h, but should probably be pointed out in the
229 release notes for 2.10. (#314232, Behdad Esfahbod)
231 Tue Sep 20 13:16:04 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
233 * glib/gpattern.c (g_pattern_ph_match): applied significant recursion
234 complexity optimization, based on a patch from Matthias Clasen.
236 * tests/patterntest.c: more tests, mostly from matthias.
238 2005-09-20 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
240 * glib/gqueue.c (g_queue_insert_sorted): Correct the docs.
241 (#316703, Mark Drago)
243 Mon Sep 19 17:23:23 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
245 * glib/gpattern.c: applied a patch from matthias which checks on the
246 upper bound of GPatternSpec length to optimize matches.
249 * tests/patterntest.c: added more match cases.
251 2005-09-16 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
253 * glib/gstrfuncs.c (g_ascii_strcasecmp, g_ascii_strncasecmp): Add
254 warning to doc comment that these functions should not be used on
255 encodings like CP932.
257 2005-09-14 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
259 * tests/keyfile-test.c: Add a test for grup names of length 1.
261 * glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_line_is_group): Accept group names
262 of length 1. (#316309)
264 2005-09-12 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
266 * glib/gmarkup.c (g_markup_escape_text): Clarify docs.
268 2005-09-11 Sebastian Wilhelmi <seppi@seppi.de>
270 * tests/refcount/Makefile.am (INCLUDES): Link the the refcount
271 tests to the system thread library $(G_THREAD_LIBS). Fixes #313744
274 2005-09-11 Kjartan Maraas <kmaraas@gnome.org>
276 * glib/gmain.c: (g_child_watch_prepare), (g_child_watch_check),
277 (child_watch_helper_thread): Remove some dead code. Closes
280 2005-09-07 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
282 * glib/Makefile.am: Create also a console version of the
283 gspawn-win32-helper program, gspawn-win32-helper-console.exe.
284 It's otherwise identical to gspawn-win32-helper.exe, except marked
285 as a console application (linked without the -mwindows option).
287 * glib/gspawn-win32.c (do_spawn_directly, do_spawn_with_pipes):
288 Drop the dont_wait parameter. Its truth value correlated 100% with
289 the NULLness of the exit_status parameter anyway, so it's enough
290 to check whether exit_status is NULL. Invert the sense of the
291 dont_return_handle parameter and rename it to do_return_handle, to
292 make the code easier to read by avoiding double negations.
294 (g_spawn_sync_utf8, g_spawn_async_with_pipes_utf8): Modify calls
295 to do_spawn_with_pipes() accordingly.
297 (do_spawn_with_pipes): If we have a console, use the console
298 version of the helper program, otherwise use the GUI one. This
299 avoids extra console windows opening up in some situations. (In
300 case a console application uses the GUI gspawn-win32-helper.exe to
301 spawn another console application we would get a separate console
302 for the spawned console application).
304 * glib-zip.in: Distribute also gspawn-win32-helper-console.exe.
306 2005-09-05 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
308 * glib/gmappedfile.c (g_mapped_file_new): Report an error
309 if the file is too large. (#315275, Kjartan Maraas)
311 * glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_load_from_fd): The return value
312 of read() is signed. (#315273, Kjartan Maraas)
314 2005-08-31 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
316 * glib/gutils.h: Wrapping atexit() is a bad idea on Windows, where
317 the EXE and each DLL have their own atexit function chains.
319 #define g_atexit as atexit instead. This means it has a
320 better chance of doing what the caller wants. For instance,
321 gtkhtml calls g_atexit() registering a function in gtkhtml
322 itself. This caused a crash when g_atexit() was implemented as a
323 function in the GLib DLL. The gtkhtml DLL was already unloaded by
324 the time the GLib DLL got unloaded.
326 * glib/gutils.c: #undef the #define mentioned above, to also get a
327 real g_atexit() into the DLL for backward compatibility. Document
328 the Windows behaviour of g_atexit(), and document the varying ways
329 atexit() can behave in the context of dynamically loaded modules
332 2005-08-31 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
336 * glib/gdataset.c: Add string interning functions.
338 2005-08-28 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
340 * glib/giochannel.c: Unify some near-duplicate strings. (#314654,
343 2005-08-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
345 * configure.in: Bump version to 2.9.0
347 2005-08-25 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
349 Make also the g_spawn*() functions take parameters in the GLib
350 file name encoding, i.e. UTF-8, on Windows. Has no impact on Unix
351 API or ABI. Like the other GLib API that was earlier changed to
352 use UTF-8 on Windows, the names of the functions that take UTF-8
353 have _utf8 suffixes added by using preprocessor macros in the
354 header file. The old names are kept for functions with the old
355 behaviour, taking parameters in the system codepage, for DLL ABI
358 * glib/gspawn.h: On Win32 add the suffix _utf8 to the names of the
359 g_spawn*() functions.
361 * glib/gspawn-win32.c: Use wide-char API on NT-based
362 Windows. Convert parameters from UTF-8 to wide chars (NT) or
363 system codepage (Win9x) and call the C library _wspawn*() or
364 spawn*() functions respectvely. Add DLL ABI stability versions
365 that take parameters in the system codepage.
367 * glib/gspawn-win32-helper.c: On NT-based Windows use the
368 wide-char versions of argv and envp, and use wide-char API to
369 change directory and spawn the program to run. Remove the verbose
370 debugging output, it was too complex to modify for the wide-char
371 features. (Just add temporary debugging printouts if needed, no
372 need to have them permanently in the source.)
374 * glib/gspawn.c: Corresponding documentation updates.
376 * glib/glib.symbols: Corresponding changes: Mark the ABI stability
377 symbols as PRIVATE, add the new _utf8-suffixed ones.
379 2005-08-24 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
381 * glib/gtypes.h (G_MININT64): Cast the constant to gint64; it is
382 guint64 otherwise and that can produce warnings about comparison
383 between signed and unsigned.
385 2005-08-23 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
387 * glib/gutils.c: Fix the crt_externs.h include.
389 2005-08-23 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
391 * NEWS: Fix spelling of my first name.
393 2005-08-23 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
397 * === Released 2.8.1 ===
401 2005-08-20 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>
403 * glib/makefile.msc.in : link with ws2_32.lib
405 2005-08-18 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
407 * configure.in: Check for <sys/wait.h>
409 * glib/gbacktrace.c: Include <sys/wait.h> on if HAVE_SYS_WAIT_H.
411 2005-08-18 Ross Burton <ross@burtonini.com>
414 Optimise single-character insertions.
419 * tests/string-test.c:
420 Add tests for new optimisation, and fix a leak.
422 2005-08-17 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
424 * configure.in: Check for crt_externs.h and _NSGetEnviron.
426 * glib/gutils.c: On Darwin, include crt-externs.h and
427 define environ using _NSGetEnviron(). (#313731)
429 2005-08-16 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
431 * glib/gutils.c (g_get_any_init): Move the body of the big if...
432 (g_get_any_init_do): ... to this new function.
433 (g_get_any_init): Declare as inline.
434 (g_get_any_init_locked): New inline function, does the locking.
435 Make use of these two throughout the code.
437 2005-08-15 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
439 * glib/gbacktrace.c (g_on_error_stack_trace): Wait for
440 the child process and then simply return. This makes
441 The "S" option work as documented in g_on_error_query().
442 (#313125, Matthew F. Barnes)
444 * glib/gunicode.h: Update the link to Unicode category
445 values. (#313369, Behnam Esfahbod)
447 * glib/gqueue.c (g_queue_find_custom): Clarify docs
448 a little. (#311727, Tristan van Berkom)
450 * glib/abicheck.sh, gobject/abicheck.sh: Make the
451 check work on ia64 too, where some symbols ended up
452 in yet another section.
