16 - Call g_queue_sort() instead of duplicating the code.
17 - Invert sort function results to make sure the same sort function
18 gives the same results across glist, gslist, gqueue and
21 * tests/asyncqueue-test.c:
22 - Updated the sort function to reflect the example in the
23 documentation for gasyncqueue.c.

27 * docs/reference/glib/glib-sections.txt:
28 * docs/reference/glib/tmpl/linked_lists_double.sgml:
29 * docs/reference/glib/tmpl/linked_lists_single.sgml:
32 - Added g_list_insert_sorted_with_data () and
33 g_slist_insert_sorted_with_data ().
34 - Removed the extra check in g_list_sort() and g_slist_sort() for
35 GCompareDataFunc vs. GCompareFunc.
37 2005-12-07 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
39 * glib-gettextize.in: Look up prefix at run-time on Win32,
40 assuming the standard directory structure with glib-gettextize in
43 2005-12-06 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
45 * glib/gmem.h: Exempt GTK+ from the mem chunk deprecation, since
46 we need GTK+ 2.8 to compile against GLib 2.10.
48 2005-12-05 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
50 * tests/run-collate-test.sh: set LC_COLLATE, not LANG, to be sure
51 to override any user settings.
53 2005-12-05 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
55 * configure.in: Revert an accidential commit
57 2005-12-05 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
59 * glib/gutf8.c: Documentation updates. (#323291, Morten Welinder)
61 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT):
62 * tests/gobject/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Set
63 MALLOC_CHECK_ and MALLOC_PERTURB_

81 - Added support for sorting async queues by with _push_sorted(),
82 _push_sorted_unlocked(), _sort() and _sort_unlocked() (#323047).
85 * tests/asyncqueue-test.c:
86 - Added test case for gasyncqueue.c
88 Mon Dec 5 15:53:20 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
90 * glib/gslice.c: implement chain walking for arbitrary ->next pointer
91 offsets in g_slice_free_chain_with_offset() based on a patch by behdad
92 in bug 323178. moved time consuming logic from g_slice_free() out of
93 the inner loop, so g_slice_free_chain_with_offset() provides a real
94 performance benefit over g_slice_free1() now.
96 * glib/gslice.h: renamed g_slice_free_chain() to
97 g_slice_free_chain_with_offset(). implemented g_slice_free_chain() as
98 a type-safe macro as suggested in bug 323178.
99 simplified the macro implementation of g_slice_free() and implemented
100 it in a type safe manner for all compliers as suggested by Morten
101 Welinder <mortenw@gnome.org>.
106 * glib/glib.symbols: s/g_slice_free_chain/g_slice_free_chain_with_offset/

115 __sync builtin without _si or _di suffix. (#321229,
116 Stanislav Brabec, patch by Andreas Schwab)
118 2005-12-04 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
120 * glib/gslice.h: Remove comma at the end of enum.
122 2005-12-04 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
124 Handle multiple user names with the same UID better.
125 (#319535, Laszlo Peter)
127 * glib/gutils.c (g_get_any_init_do): When determining user
128 data, first look up $LOGNAME. If the UID doesn't match
129 getuid(), fall back to the current behaviour of looking
130 up the user data based on getuid().
132 2005-12-04 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
134 * glib/gmacros.h (G_GNUC_WARN_UNUSED_RESULT): Add a macro
135 to make gcc warn if a function result is ignored. (#145466,
136 Arjan van de Ven, Alex Larsson)
138 * glib/gmem.h: Add the new attribute to g_realloc and

164 * configure.in: Define G_GUINT64_CONSTANT in analogy to
165 G_GINT64_CONSTANT. (#322568, Andrew Paprocki)
167 2005-12-02 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
169 * glib/gslice.c: Win32 portability fixes and C99ism removal,

174 * glib/gatomic.c (g_atomic_int_add): Add a missing volatile for
175 the IA64 implementation.
177 Fri Dec 2 16:18:09 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
179 * glib/gslice.c: some naming and type size fixups.
181 Fri Dec 2 13:08:58 2005 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
183 * glib/gslice.h (g_slice_free): reworked GCC-specific type-safe macro
184 variant into something less verbose, but digestible for gcc-3.4.
186 Fri Dec 2 10:55:07 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
188 * tests/slice-test.c: extended to perform the benchmarking on the old
189 memchunk code if 'O' is selected.
191 * tests/memchunks.c: new file which contains the old GLib mem chunks
192 implementation with prefix old_mem_chunk_.
194 * tests/Makefile.am: added memchunks.c
196 Fri Dec 2 00:16:59 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
198 * glib/gslice.c: improved gettimeofday() timer resolution by maintaining
199 acceptable load distribution of the syscall.
200 (allocator_get_magazine_threshold): reduce minimum/single-thread magazine
201 sizes to approximately page_size/2.5 to avoid excessive startup allocations.
203 2005-12-01 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
205 * tests/gobject/ifacecheck.c (test_iface_base_init): Don't
206 double-free base interface members.
208 * tests/Makefile.am: Remove duplicate variable.
210 Thu Dec 1 17:32:46 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
212 * glib/gslice.[hc]: new slice allocator implementation.
214 * tests/slice-test.c: added random slice allocation test.
216 * glib/gthread.[hc]: removed newly added private thread mem API.
218 * glib/gthreadinit.h:
221 * glib/gmem.c: divided glib threading initialisation into three phases,
222 initialisation where private keys and messaging are not available (only
223 needed by gmem.c), initialisation without messaging but private keys
224 available (gslice.c, gmessage.c), and full fledged initialisers that
225 server the rest of glib. initialisation functions got renamed to reflect
226 the limitations of their corresponding phases.
228 * glib/gmem.c: removed memchunk code, defer allocations to
231 * glib/gmem.[hc]: removed g_slice_* skeletons.
233 * glib/glib.symbols: added g_slice_* symbols.
235 * configure.in: check for availability of posix_memalign(3), memalign(3)
238 * glib/Makefile.am: added gslice.[hc].
240 2005-12-01 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
242 * glib/gstdio.c (g_stat): In the Win32 implementation, strip
243 trailing slash(es) for non-root folders. stat() fails if non-root
244 folders are specified with trailing slashes. It's too much hassle
245 to demand that callers strip such slashes themselves, especially
246 as it is easy to get it wrong and strip the slash of a root
248 (g_rename): On NT-based Windows, use MoveFileEx() with
249 MOVEFILE_REPLACE_EXISTING to better match Unix behaviour.
251 2005-11-28 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
253 Fix G_STMT_START / G_STMT_END on Solaris. (#321972,
256 * configure.in: Check whether do { } while (0) works.
258 * glib/gmacros.h: Use do { } while (0) for G_STMT_START /
259 G_STMT_END if it works.

270 2005-11-27 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
272 * glib/gunicollate.c (g_utf8_collate_key_for_filename):
273 Don't read beyond len. (#322520, Christian Persch)
275 Wed Nov 23 17:34:01 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
277 * glib/gdataset.c: access datalist flags via atomic pointer access
278 functions, instead of acquiring the dataset lock. this is faster and
279 also matches the atomic pointer readouts in gdatalistprivate.h and
280 direct pointer modifications required by gobject.c.
282 Wed Nov 23 13:35:31 2005 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
284 * glib/gdataset.c: streamlined initialization code somewhat,
285 removed GData node cache.
287 2005-11-22 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
289 * glib/ghash.c (g_hash_table_ref):
290 (g_hash_table_unref): Mark these as new API.
292 Avoid double locking in g_intern_string (#322133,
295 * glib/gdataset.c (g_quark_from_string_internal): New
296 internal function which factors out common parts of
297 g_quark_from[_static]_string.
298 (g_quark_from_string, g_quark_from_static_string):
299 Use g_quark_from_string_internal.
300 (g_intern_string, g_intern_static_string): Use
301 g_quark_from_string_internal, and only take the
303 (g_quark_new): Don't store the strings shifted by -1
304 in the g_quarks array.
305 (g_quark_to_string): Adapt to the previous change.
307 Tue Nov 22 14:04:26 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
311 g_hash_table_new_full(): create hash tables with a ref count of 1.
312 g_hash_table_ref(): atomically ref_count+=1
313 g_hash_table_unref(): atomically ref_count-=1, destroys hash table
314 when refcount reaches 0.
315 g_hash_table_destroy(): just destroy keys and values, unref by 1.
316 g_hash_table_insert():
317 g_hash_table_replace(): assert ref_count>0.
320 * glib/gatomic.c: added 'volatile' qualifier to all atomic pointer and

366 by Arjan van de Ven and gcc.
368 2005-11-16 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
370 * docs/reference/glib/tmpl/unicode.sgml: Correct typo on mentioning

384 2005-11-05 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
386 * glib/giowin32.c (g_io_win32_set_flags): Don't call g_warning().
387 (#320688) Instead set error and return failure.
389 2005-11-07 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
391 * glib/gmain.c (g_main_dispatch): Don't call cb_funcs->unref
392 while holding the context lock. (#320886, Andy Wingo)
394 2005-11-07 Billy Biggs <vektor@dumbterm.net>
396 * tests/refcount/Makefile.am: Add a missing reference to libglib
397 in the LDADD for this test.
399 2005-11-07 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
401 * glib/gmem.c (g_allocator_new): We need to set n_preallocs to a
402 nonzero value, otherwise GTK+ 2.8 breaks when compiled against
403 GLib 2.9. (#320755, Luca Ferretti)
405 2005-11-04 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
407 * glib/Makefile.am: Apply a patch from Behdad Esfahbod to
408 use a faster lookup table for g_unichar_get_mirror_char().
409 * glib/gmirroringtable.h: The new table.
410 * glib/gunichartables.h: Remove bidi_mirroring_table.
411 * glib/gen-unicode-tables.pl: Don't generate the mirroring

421 * glib/gmessages.c: (_g_debug_init): handle G_DEBUG=fatal_criticals,
422 to help find critical warnings in applications. (#320017,
425 2005-11-02 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
427 * glib/glib.symbols: Remove large amount of trailing whitespace
428 from one line. Remove #ifdef G_UNDEFINED from around
429 g_hash_table_new and g_hash_table_new_full symbols, what was the
430 purpose of that? Add the g_slice functions.
432 Tue Nov 1 16:24:20 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
434 * glib/gmem.[hc]: prepared deprecation of GMemChunk and GAllocator.
435 added g_slice_*() API to allocate and cache small bits of memory.
436 an actuall allocator implementation for g_slice_*() is still pending.
438 * glib/gthread.[hc]: changes from a patch by Matthias Clasen.
439 changed GRealThread list to use in-structure *next; fields instead
440 of GSList, in order for thread iteration to not depenend on g_slice_*()
442 _g_thread_mem_private_get():
443 _g_thread_mem_private_set(): added accessors for private memory,
444 needed because the ordinary GPrivate implementation relies on GArray
445 and GSList and therefore indirectly on working g_slice_*() allocations.
448 g_thread_foreach(): new public API function to loop over all existing threads.
462 removed GAllocator and free list usages and accompanying locks.
463 use g_slice_*() API to allocate and cache small bits of memory.
465 * glib/ghook.h: removed GMemChunk field from public API.
468 * glib/glist.h: deprecate allocator API, provide _free1() for consistency.
470 * glib/gnode.h: deprecate allocator API.
472 * glib/gmain.c: reordered GPollRec fields so g_slice_free_chain() can
473 be used for poll rec lists.
475 * glib/grel.c: removed mem chunk usage, and allocated tuples via g_slice_*().
476 g_relation_destroy(): free all tuples from the all_tuples hash table,
477 this effectively maintains the life time track keeping of tuples.
478 g_relation_delete_tuple(): free tuples which are removed from the
479 all_tuples hash table. this fixes a temporary leak that was present
480 in the memchunk code until the destruction of the relation.
482 2005-10-29 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
484 * tests/convert-test.c: Add some tests for conversions between
485 UTF-8, UCS-4 and UTF-16.
487 * glib/gutf8.c (g_utf8_to_ucs4, g_utf8_to_utf16): Fix handling
488 of len == -1, noticed by Morten Welinder.

492 * configure.in: Added ku (Kurdish) to ALL_LINGUAS
494 2005-10-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
496 * glib/gutf8.c (g_ucs4_to_utf8): Don't set items_read twice
497 in the error case, and add some documentation. (#319806, Morten
500 2005-10-19 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
502 * configure.in: Use AC_CHECK_FUNCS for _NSGetEnviron, to get the
503 config.h symbol automatically. Fixes bug #313731.
505 2005-10-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
507 * glib/gwin32.c (g_win32_get_package_installation_directory):
508 Return a g_strdup()ed copy of the value stored in the hash table,
509 so that it can be g_free()d without leaving a dangling pointer in
510 the hash table. (#319232)
512 2005-10-06 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
514 * glib/gunicollate.c (g_utf8_collate_key_for_filename): Handle
515 all-zero sequences correctly. (#317930, Sebastien Bacher)
517 2005-10-05 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
519 * glib/gmarkup.c (g_markup_escape_text): Doc addition
521 * Makefile.am: Add Collation tests.
523 * tests/collate/*: Inputs and expected outputs for collation tests.
525 * tests/run-collate-tests.sh: Script to run collation tests.
527 * tests/unicode-collate.c (main): Rework slightly to make
528 it usable in unit tests. Also test g_utf8_collate_key_for_filename().

533 * glib/gen-unicode-tables.pl:
535 * glib/gunichartables.h:
537 * tests/casefold.txt:
538 * tests/casemap.txt: Updated to Unicode 4.1. There are five new
539 GUnicodeBreakType types. That may break some applications, like
542 2005-09-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
544 * glib/gstrfuncs.c (g_ascii_strtoull): Add details to the
545 docs. (#314393, Matthew F. Barnes)
548 * glib/gprintf.h: Remove g_snprintf() and g_vsnprintf(), since
549 they are already declared in glib.h. This doesn't break documented
550 use of gprintf.h, but should probably be pointed out in the
551 release notes for 2.10. (#314232, Behdad Esfahbod)
553 Tue Sep 20 13:16:04 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
555 * glib/gpattern.c (g_pattern_ph_match): applied significant recursion
556 complexity optimization, based on a patch from Matthias Clasen.
558 * tests/patterntest.c: more tests, mostly from matthias.
560 2005-09-20 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
562 * glib/gqueue.c (g_queue_insert_sorted): Correct the docs.

565 Mon Sep 19 17:23:23 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
567 * glib/gpattern.c: applied a patch from matthias which checks on the
568 upper bound of GPatternSpec length to optimize matches.
571 * tests/patterntest.c: added more match cases.
573 2005-09-16 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
575 * glib/gstrfuncs.c (g_ascii_strcasecmp, g_ascii_strncasecmp): Add
576 warning to doc comment that these functions should not be used on
577 encodings like CP932.
579 2005-09-14 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
581 * tests/keyfile-test.c: Add a test for grup names of length 1.

598 * glib/gmain.c: (g_child_watch_prepare), (g_child_watch_check),
599 (child_watch_helper_thread): Remove some dead code. Closes
602 2005-09-07 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
604 * glib/Makefile.am: Create also a console version of the
605 gspawn-win32-helper program, gspawn-win32-helper-console.exe.
606 It's otherwise identical to gspawn-win32-helper.exe, except marked
607 as a console application (linked without the -mwindows option).
609 * glib/gspawn-win32.c (do_spawn_directly, do_spawn_with_pipes):
610 Drop the dont_wait parameter. Its truth value correlated 100% with
611 the NULLness of the exit_status parameter anyway, so it's enough
612 to check whether exit_status is NULL. Invert the sense of the
613 dont_return_handle parameter and rename it to do_return_handle, to
614 make the code easier to read by avoiding double negations.
616 (g_spawn_sync_utf8, g_spawn_async_with_pipes_utf8): Modify calls
617 to do_spawn_with_pipes() accordingly.
619 (do_spawn_with_pipes): If we have a console, use the console
620 version of the helper program, otherwise use the GUI one. This
621 avoids extra console windows opening up in some situations. (In
622 case a console application uses the GUI gspawn-win32-helper.exe to
623 spawn another console application we would get a separate console
624 for the spawned console application).
626 * glib-zip.in: Distribute also gspawn-win32-helper-console.exe.

630 * glib/gmappedfile.c (g_mapped_file_new): Report an error
631 if the file is too large. (#315275, Kjartan Maraas)
633 * glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_load_from_fd): The return value
634 of read() is signed. (#315273, Kjartan Maraas)
636 2005-08-31 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
638 * glib/gutils.h: Wrapping atexit() is a bad idea on Windows, where
639 the EXE and each DLL have their own atexit function chains.
641 #define g_atexit as atexit instead. This means it has a
642 better chance of doing what the caller wants. For instance,
643 gtkhtml calls g_atexit() registering a function in gtkhtml
644 itself. This caused a crash when g_atexit() was implemented as a
645 function in the GLib DLL. The gtkhtml DLL was already unloaded by
646 the time the GLib DLL got unloaded.
648 * glib/gutils.c: #undef the #define mentioned above, to also get a
649 real g_atexit() into the DLL for backward compatibility. Document
650 the Windows behaviour of g_atexit(), and document the varying ways
651 atexit() can behave in the context of dynamically loaded modules
654 2005-08-31 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
658 * glib/gdataset.c: Add string interning functions.
660 2005-08-28 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
662 * glib/giochannel.c: Unify some near-duplicate strings. (#314654,
665 2005-08-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
667 * configure.in: Bump version to 2.9.0
669 2005-08-25 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
671 Make also the g_spawn*() functions take parameters in the GLib
672 file name encoding, i.e. UTF-8, on Windows. Has no impact on Unix
673 API or ABI. Like the other GLib API that was earlier changed to
674 use UTF-8 on Windows, the names of the functions that take UTF-8
675 have _utf8 suffixes added by using preprocessor macros in the
676 header file. The old names are kept for functions with the old
677 behaviour, taking parameters in the system codepage, for DLL ABI
680 * glib/gspawn.h: On Win32 add the suffix _utf8 to the names of the
681 g_spawn*() functions.
683 * glib/gspawn-win32.c: Use wide-char API on NT-based
684 Windows. Convert parameters from UTF-8 to wide chars (NT) or
685 system codepage (Win9x) and call the C library _wspawn*() or
686 spawn*() functions respectvely. Add DLL ABI stability versions
687 that take parameters in the system codepage.
689 * glib/gspawn-win32-helper.c: On NT-based Windows use the
690 wide-char versions of argv and envp, and use wide-char API to
691 change directory and spawn the program to run. Remove the verbose
692 debugging output, it was too complex to modify for the wide-char
693 features. (Just add temporary debugging printouts if needed, no
694 need to have them permanently in the source.)
696 * glib/gspawn.c: Corresponding documentation updates.
698 * glib/glib.symbols: Corresponding changes: Mark the ABI stability
699 symbols as PRIVATE, add the new _utf8-suffixed ones.
701 2005-08-24 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
703 * glib/gtypes.h (G_MININT64): Cast the constant to gint64; it is
704 guint64 otherwise and that can produce warnings about comparison
705 between signed and unsigned.
707 2005-08-23 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
709 * glib/gutils.c: Fix the crt_externs.h include.
711 2005-08-23 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
713 * NEWS: Fix spelling of my first name.

719 * === Released 2.8.1 ===
723 2005-08-20 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>
725 * glib/makefile.msc.in : link with ws2_32.lib
727 2005-08-18 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
729 * configure.in: Check for <sys/wait.h>
731 * glib/gbacktrace.c: Include <sys/wait.h> on if HAVE_SYS_WAIT_H.

736 Optimise single-character insertions.
741 * tests/string-test.c:
742 Add tests for new optimisation, and fix a leak.
744 2005-08-17 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
746 * configure.in: Check for crt_externs.h and _NSGetEnviron.
748 * glib/gutils.c: On Darwin, include crt-externs.h and
749 define environ using _NSGetEnviron(). (#313731)
751 2005-08-16 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
753 * glib/gutils.c (g_get_any_init): Move the body of the big if...
754 (g_get_any_init_do): ... to this new function.
755 (g_get_any_init): Declare as inline.
756 (g_get_any_init_locked): New inline function, does the locking.
757 Make use of these two throughout the code.
759 2005-08-15 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
761 * glib/gbacktrace.c (g_on_error_stack_trace): Wait for
762 the child process and then simply return. This makes
763 The "S" option work as documented in g_on_error_query().
764 (#313125, Matthew F. Barnes)
766 * glib/gunicode.h: Update the link to Unicode category
767 values. (#313369, Behnam Esfahbod)
769 * glib/gqueue.c (g_queue_find_custom): Clarify docs
770 a little. (#311727, Tristan van Berkom)
772 * glib/abicheck.sh, gobject/abicheck.sh: Make the
773 check work on ia64 too, where some symbols ended up
774 in yet another section.
