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

41 2005-12-07 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
43 * glib-gettextize.in: Look up prefix at run-time on Win32,
44 assuming the standard directory structure with glib-gettextize in
47 2005-12-06 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
49 * glib/gmem.h: Exempt GTK+ from the mem chunk deprecation, since
50 we need GTK+ 2.8 to compile against GLib 2.10.
52 2005-12-05 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
54 * tests/run-collate-test.sh: set LC_COLLATE, not LANG, to be sure
55 to override any user settings.
57 2005-12-05 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
59 * configure.in: Revert an accidential commit
61 2005-12-05 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
63 * glib/gutf8.c: Documentation updates. (#323291, Morten Welinder)
65 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT):
66 * tests/gobject/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Set
67 MALLOC_CHECK_ and MALLOC_PERTURB_

84 * glib/gasyncqueue.[ch]:
85 - Added support for sorting async queues by with _push_sorted(),
86 _push_sorted_unlocked(), _sort() and _sort_unlocked() (#323047).
89 * tests/asyncqueue-test.c:
90 - Added test case for gasyncqueue.c
92 Mon Dec 5 15:53:20 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
94 * glib/gslice.c: implement chain walking for arbitrary ->next pointer
95 offsets in g_slice_free_chain_with_offset() based on a patch by behdad
96 in bug 323178. moved time consuming logic from g_slice_free() out of
97 the inner loop, so g_slice_free_chain_with_offset() provides a real
98 performance benefit over g_slice_free1() now.
100 * glib/gslice.h: renamed g_slice_free_chain() to
101 g_slice_free_chain_with_offset(). implemented g_slice_free_chain() as
102 a type-safe macro as suggested in bug 323178.
103 simplified the macro implementation of g_slice_free() and implemented
104 it in a type safe manner for all compliers as suggested by Morten
105 Welinder <mortenw@gnome.org>.
110 * glib/glib.symbols: s/g_slice_free_chain/g_slice_free_chain_with_offset/
112 2005-12-05 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>

116 * tests/libmoduletestplugin_a.c: Fix compiler warnings.
118 * glib/gatomic.c: In the ia64 implementation, use
119 __sync builtin without _si or _di suffix. (#321229,
120 Stanislav Brabec, patch by Andreas Schwab)
122 2005-12-04 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
124 * glib/gslice.h: Remove comma at the end of enum.
126 2005-12-04 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
128 Handle multiple user names with the same UID better.
129 (#319535, Laszlo Peter)
131 * glib/gutils.c (g_get_any_init_do): When determining user
132 data, first look up $LOGNAME. If the UID doesn't match
133 getuid(), fall back to the current behaviour of looking
134 up the user data based on getuid().
136 2005-12-04 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
138 * glib/gmacros.h (G_GNUC_WARN_UNUSED_RESULT): Add a macro
139 to make gcc warn if a function result is ignored. (#145466,
140 Arjan van de Ven, Alex Larsson)
142 * glib/gmem.h: Add the new attribute to g_realloc and
145 2005-12-03 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>

151 * glib/gmappedfile.c: Make mapping of empty files
154 * glib/gfileutils.c: Don't fork a new process just to
155 fix the permissions of the created temp file. (#321318,
156 Alexis S. L. Carvalho)
158 2005-12-02 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
160 * README.in: Add a note about Solaris threads.
163 * configure.in: Remove support for Solaris threads.
164 (#136971, Sebastian Wilhelmi, patch by Andrew Paprocki)
166 2005-12-02 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
168 * configure.in: Define G_GUINT64_CONSTANT in analogy to
169 G_GINT64_CONSTANT. (#322568, Andrew Paprocki)
171 2005-12-02 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
173 * glib/gslice.c: Win32 portability fixes and C99ism removal,
174 pointed out by Kazuki Iwamoto. (#323052)
176 2005-12-02 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
178 * glib/gatomic.c (g_atomic_int_add): Add a missing volatile for
179 the IA64 implementation.
181 Fri Dec 2 16:18:09 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
183 * glib/gslice.c: some naming and type size fixups.
185 Fri Dec 2 13:08:58 2005 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
187 * glib/gslice.h (g_slice_free): reworked GCC-specific type-safe macro
188 variant into something less verbose, but digestible for gcc-3.4.
190 Fri Dec 2 10:55:07 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
192 * tests/slice-test.c: extended to perform the benchmarking on the old
193 memchunk code if 'O' is selected.
195 * tests/memchunks.c: new file which contains the old GLib mem chunks
196 implementation with prefix old_mem_chunk_.
198 * tests/Makefile.am: added memchunks.c
200 Fri Dec 2 00:16:59 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
202 * glib/gslice.c: improved gettimeofday() timer resolution by maintaining
203 acceptable load distribution of the syscall.
204 (allocator_get_magazine_threshold): reduce minimum/single-thread magazine
205 sizes to approximately page_size/2.5 to avoid excessive startup allocations.
207 2005-12-01 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
209 * tests/gobject/ifacecheck.c (test_iface_base_init): Don't
210 double-free base interface members.
212 * tests/Makefile.am: Remove duplicate variable.
214 Thu Dec 1 17:32:46 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
216 * glib/gslice.[hc]: new slice allocator implementation.
218 * tests/slice-test.c: added random slice allocation test.
220 * glib/gthread.[hc]: removed newly added private thread mem API.
222 * glib/gthreadinit.h:
225 * glib/gmem.c: divided glib threading initialisation into three phases,
226 initialisation where private keys and messaging are not available (only
227 needed by gmem.c), initialisation without messaging but private keys
228 available (gslice.c, gmessage.c), and full fledged initialisers that
229 server the rest of glib. initialisation functions got renamed to reflect
230 the limitations of their corresponding phases.
232 * glib/gmem.c: removed memchunk code, defer allocations to
235 * glib/gmem.[hc]: removed g_slice_* skeletons.
237 * glib/glib.symbols: added g_slice_* symbols.
239 * configure.in: check for availability of posix_memalign(3), memalign(3)
242 * glib/Makefile.am: added gslice.[hc].
244 2005-12-01 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
246 * glib/gstdio.c (g_stat): In the Win32 implementation, strip
247 trailing slash(es) for non-root folders. stat() fails if non-root
248 folders are specified with trailing slashes. It's too much hassle
249 to demand that callers strip such slashes themselves, especially
250 as it is easy to get it wrong and strip the slash of a root
252 (g_rename): On NT-based Windows, use MoveFileEx() with
253 MOVEFILE_REPLACE_EXISTING to better match Unix behaviour.
255 2005-11-28 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
257 Fix G_STMT_START / G_STMT_END on Solaris. (#321972,
260 * configure.in: Check whether do { } while (0) works.
262 * glib/gmacros.h: Use do { } while (0) for G_STMT_START /
263 G_STMT_END if it works.
265 2005-11-28 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>

270 * glib/ghash.c (g_hash_table_unref, g_hash_table_destroy)
271 (g_hash_table_foreach_remove_or_steal): Silence compiler
274 2005-11-27 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
276 * glib/gunicollate.c (g_utf8_collate_key_for_filename):
277 Don't read beyond len. (#322520, Christian Persch)
279 Wed Nov 23 17:34:01 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
281 * glib/gdataset.c: access datalist flags via atomic pointer access
282 functions, instead of acquiring the dataset lock. this is faster and
283 also matches the atomic pointer readouts in gdatalistprivate.h and
284 direct pointer modifications required by gobject.c.
286 Wed Nov 23 13:35:31 2005 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
288 * glib/gdataset.c: streamlined initialization code somewhat,
289 removed GData node cache.
291 2005-11-22 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
293 * glib/ghash.c (g_hash_table_ref):
294 (g_hash_table_unref): Mark these as new API.
296 Avoid double locking in g_intern_string (#322133,
299 * glib/gdataset.c (g_quark_from_string_internal): New
300 internal function which factors out common parts of
301 g_quark_from[_static]_string.
302 (g_quark_from_string, g_quark_from_static_string):
303 Use g_quark_from_string_internal.
304 (g_intern_string, g_intern_static_string): Use
305 g_quark_from_string_internal, and only take the
307 (g_quark_new): Don't store the strings shifted by -1
308 in the g_quarks array.
309 (g_quark_to_string): Adapt to the previous change.
311 Tue Nov 22 14:04:26 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
315 g_hash_table_new_full(): create hash tables with a ref count of 1.
316 g_hash_table_ref(): atomically ref_count+=1
317 g_hash_table_unref(): atomically ref_count-=1, destroys hash table
318 when refcount reaches 0.
319 g_hash_table_destroy(): just destroy keys and values, unref by 1.
320 g_hash_table_insert():
321 g_hash_table_replace(): assert ref_count>0.
324 * glib/gatomic.c: added 'volatile' qualifier to all atomic pointer and
327 2005-11-20 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
329 * glib/guniprop.c (g_unichar_get_mirror_char): Remove unused
330 variables. (#321984, Andrew Paprocki)

349 * README.in: Updates.
353 * glib/gdate.c (g_date_set_time_t):
354 (g_date_set_time_val): Add functions to set a date from
355 a time_t and from a GTimeVal.
356 (g_date_set_time): Deprecate. (#314067, Roger Leigh)

360 and g_utf8_offset_to_pointer.
362 * glib/gutf8.c (g_utf8_pointer_to_offset)
363 (g_utf8_offset_to_pointer): Handle negative offsets, and use
364 "stutter stepping" for going backwards. (#320638, Larry
369 * glib/gthread.c: const correctness fixes, found
370 by Arjan van de Ven and gcc.
372 2005-11-16 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
374 * docs/reference/glib/tmpl/unicode.sgml: Correct typo on mentioning

388 2005-11-05 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
390 * glib/giowin32.c (g_io_win32_set_flags): Don't call g_warning().
391 (#320688) Instead set error and return failure.
393 2005-11-07 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
395 * glib/gmain.c (g_main_dispatch): Don't call cb_funcs->unref
396 while holding the context lock. (#320886, Andy Wingo)
398 2005-11-07 Billy Biggs <vektor@dumbterm.net>
400 * tests/refcount/Makefile.am: Add a missing reference to libglib
401 in the LDADD for this test.
403 2005-11-07 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
405 * glib/gmem.c (g_allocator_new): We need to set n_preallocs to a
406 nonzero value, otherwise GTK+ 2.8 breaks when compiled against
407 GLib 2.9. (#320755, Luca Ferretti)
409 2005-11-04 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
411 * glib/Makefile.am: Apply a patch from Behdad Esfahbod to
412 use a faster lookup table for g_unichar_get_mirror_char().
413 * glib/gmirroringtable.h: The new table.
414 * glib/gunichartables.h: Remove bidi_mirroring_table.
415 * glib/gen-unicode-tables.pl: Don't generate the mirroring
417 * glib/glib-mirroring-tab/*: Sources for the program
418 which generated gmirroringtable.h.
420 * glib/glist.c: Avoid some code duplication.
422 * glib/gscanner.h: Include gdataset.h. (#320322)

425 * glib/gmessages.c: (_g_debug_init): handle G_DEBUG=fatal_criticals,
426 to help find critical warnings in applications. (#320017,
429 2005-11-02 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
431 * glib/glib.symbols: Remove large amount of trailing whitespace
432 from one line. Remove #ifdef G_UNDEFINED from around
433 g_hash_table_new and g_hash_table_new_full symbols, what was the
434 purpose of that? Add the g_slice functions.
436 Tue Nov 1 16:24:20 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
438 * glib/gmem.[hc]: prepared deprecation of GMemChunk and GAllocator.
439 added g_slice_*() API to allocate and cache small bits of memory.
440 an actuall allocator implementation for g_slice_*() is still pending.
442 * glib/gthread.[hc]: changes from a patch by Matthias Clasen.
443 changed GRealThread list to use in-structure *next; fields instead
444 of GSList, in order for thread iteration to not depenend on g_slice_*()
446 _g_thread_mem_private_get():
447 _g_thread_mem_private_set(): added accessors for private memory,
448 needed because the ordinary GPrivate implementation relies on GArray
449 and GSList and therefore indirectly on working g_slice_*() allocations.
452 g_thread_foreach(): new public API function to loop over all existing threads.
466 removed GAllocator and free list usages and accompanying locks.
467 use g_slice_*() API to allocate and cache small bits of memory.
469 * glib/ghook.h: removed GMemChunk field from public API.
472 * glib/glist.h: deprecate allocator API, provide _free1() for consistency.
474 * glib/gnode.h: deprecate allocator API.
476 * glib/gmain.c: reordered GPollRec fields so g_slice_free_chain() can
477 be used for poll rec lists.
479 * glib/grel.c: removed mem chunk usage, and allocated tuples via g_slice_*().
480 g_relation_destroy(): free all tuples from the all_tuples hash table,
481 this effectively maintains the life time track keeping of tuples.
482 g_relation_delete_tuple(): free tuples which are removed from the
483 all_tuples hash table. this fixes a temporary leak that was present
484 in the memchunk code until the destruction of the relation.
486 2005-10-29 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
488 * tests/convert-test.c: Add some tests for conversions between
489 UTF-8, UCS-4 and UTF-16.
491 * glib/gutf8.c (g_utf8_to_ucs4, g_utf8_to_utf16): Fix handling
492 of len == -1, noticed by Morten Welinder.
494 2005-10-27 Erdal Ronahi <erdal.ronahi@gmail.com>
496 * configure.in: Added ku (Kurdish) to ALL_LINGUAS
498 2005-10-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
500 * glib/gutf8.c (g_ucs4_to_utf8): Don't set items_read twice
501 in the error case, and add some documentation. (#319806, Morten
504 2005-10-19 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
506 * configure.in: Use AC_CHECK_FUNCS for _NSGetEnviron, to get the
507 config.h symbol automatically. Fixes bug #313731.
509 2005-10-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
511 * glib/gwin32.c (g_win32_get_package_installation_directory):
512 Return a g_strdup()ed copy of the value stored in the hash table,
513 so that it can be g_free()d without leaving a dangling pointer in
514 the hash table. (#319232)
516 2005-10-06 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
518 * glib/gunicollate.c (g_utf8_collate_key_for_filename): Handle
519 all-zero sequences correctly. (#317930, Sebastien Bacher)
521 2005-10-05 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
523 * glib/gmarkup.c (g_markup_escape_text): Doc addition
525 * Makefile.am: Add Collation tests.
527 * tests/collate/*: Inputs and expected outputs for collation tests.
529 * tests/run-collate-tests.sh: Script to run collation tests.
531 * tests/unicode-collate.c (main): Rework slightly to make
532 it usable in unit tests. Also test g_utf8_collate_key_for_filename().
534 2005-10-01 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
536 * docs/reference/glib/tmpl/unicode.sgml:
537 * glib/gen-unicode-tables.pl:
539 * glib/gunichartables.h:
541 * tests/casefold.txt:
542 * tests/casemap.txt: Updated to Unicode 4.1. There are five new
543 GUnicodeBreakType types. That may break some applications, like
546 2005-09-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
548 * glib/gstrfuncs.c (g_ascii_strtoull): Add details to the
549 docs. (#314393, Matthew F. Barnes)
552 * glib/gprintf.h: Remove g_snprintf() and g_vsnprintf(), since
553 they are already declared in glib.h. This doesn't break documented
554 use of gprintf.h, but should probably be pointed out in the
555 release notes for 2.10. (#314232, Behdad Esfahbod)
557 Tue Sep 20 13:16:04 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
559 * glib/gpattern.c (g_pattern_ph_match): applied significant recursion
560 complexity optimization, based on a patch from Matthias Clasen.
562 * tests/patterntest.c: more tests, mostly from matthias.
564 2005-09-20 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
566 * glib/gqueue.c (g_queue_insert_sorted): Correct the docs.

569 Mon Sep 19 17:23:23 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
571 * glib/gpattern.c: applied a patch from matthias which checks on the
572 upper bound of GPatternSpec length to optimize matches.
575 * tests/patterntest.c: added more match cases.
577 2005-09-16 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
579 * glib/gstrfuncs.c (g_ascii_strcasecmp, g_ascii_strncasecmp): Add
580 warning to doc comment that these functions should not be used on
581 encodings like CP932.
583 2005-09-14 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
585 * tests/keyfile-test.c: Add a test for grup names of length 1.
587 * glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_line_is_group): Accept group names
588 of length 1. (#316309)

597 tests to the system thread library $(G_THREAD_LIBS). Fixes #313744
600 2005-09-11 Kjartan Maraas <kmaraas@gnome.org>
602 * glib/gmain.c: (g_child_watch_prepare), (g_child_watch_check),
603 (child_watch_helper_thread): Remove some dead code. Closes
606 2005-09-07 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
608 * glib/Makefile.am: Create also a console version of the
609 gspawn-win32-helper program, gspawn-win32-helper-console.exe.
610 It's otherwise identical to gspawn-win32-helper.exe, except marked
611 as a console application (linked without the -mwindows option).
613 * glib/gspawn-win32.c (do_spawn_directly, do_spawn_with_pipes):
614 Drop the dont_wait parameter. Its truth value correlated 100% with
615 the NULLness of the exit_status parameter anyway, so it's enough
616 to check whether exit_status is NULL. Invert the sense of the
617 dont_return_handle parameter and rename it to do_return_handle, to
618 make the code easier to read by avoiding double negations.
620 (g_spawn_sync_utf8, g_spawn_async_with_pipes_utf8): Modify calls
621 to do_spawn_with_pipes() accordingly.
623 (do_spawn_with_pipes): If we have a console, use the console
624 version of the helper program, otherwise use the GUI one. This
625 avoids extra console windows opening up in some situations. (In
626 case a console application uses the GUI gspawn-win32-helper.exe to
627 spawn another console application we would get a separate console
628 for the spawned console application).
630 * glib-zip.in: Distribute also gspawn-win32-helper-console.exe.
632 2005-09-05 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
634 * glib/gmappedfile.c (g_mapped_file_new): Report an error
635 if the file is too large. (#315275, Kjartan Maraas)
637 * glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_load_from_fd): The return value
638 of read() is signed. (#315273, Kjartan Maraas)
640 2005-08-31 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
642 * glib/gutils.h: Wrapping atexit() is a bad idea on Windows, where
643 the EXE and each DLL have their own atexit function chains.
645 #define g_atexit as atexit instead. This means it has a
646 better chance of doing what the caller wants. For instance,
647 gtkhtml calls g_atexit() registering a function in gtkhtml
648 itself. This caused a crash when g_atexit() was implemented as a
649 function in the GLib DLL. The gtkhtml DLL was already unloaded by
650 the time the GLib DLL got unloaded.
652 * glib/gutils.c: #undef the #define mentioned above, to also get a
653 real g_atexit() into the DLL for backward compatibility. Document
654 the Windows behaviour of g_atexit(), and document the varying ways
655 atexit() can behave in the context of dynamically loaded modules
658 2005-08-31 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
662 * glib/gdataset.c: Add string interning functions.
664 2005-08-28 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
666 * glib/giochannel.c: Unify some near-duplicate strings. (#314654,
669 2005-08-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
671 * configure.in: Bump version to 2.9.0
673 2005-08-25 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
675 Make also the g_spawn*() functions take parameters in the GLib
676 file name encoding, i.e. UTF-8, on Windows. Has no impact on Unix
677 API or ABI. Like the other GLib API that was earlier changed to
678 use UTF-8 on Windows, the names of the functions that take UTF-8
679 have _utf8 suffixes added by using preprocessor macros in the
680 header file. The old names are kept for functions with the old
681 behaviour, taking parameters in the system codepage, for DLL ABI
684 * glib/gspawn.h: On Win32 add the suffix _utf8 to the names of the
685 g_spawn*() functions.
687 * glib/gspawn-win32.c: Use wide-char API on NT-based
688 Windows. Convert parameters from UTF-8 to wide chars (NT) or
689 system codepage (Win9x) and call the C library _wspawn*() or
690 spawn*() functions respectvely. Add DLL ABI stability versions
691 that take parameters in the system codepage.
693 * glib/gspawn-win32-helper.c: On NT-based Windows use the
694 wide-char versions of argv and envp, and use wide-char API to
695 change directory and spawn the program to run. Remove the verbose
696 debugging output, it was too complex to modify for the wide-char
697 features. (Just add temporary debugging printouts if needed, no
698 need to have them permanently in the source.)
700 * glib/gspawn.c: Corresponding documentation updates.
702 * glib/glib.symbols: Corresponding changes: Mark the ABI stability
703 symbols as PRIVATE, add the new _utf8-suffixed ones.
705 2005-08-24 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
707 * glib/gtypes.h (G_MININT64): Cast the constant to gint64; it is
708 guint64 otherwise and that can produce warnings about comparison
709 between signed and unsigned.
711 2005-08-23 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
713 * glib/gutils.c: Fix the crt_externs.h include.
715 2005-08-23 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
717 * NEWS: Fix spelling of my first name.
719 2005-08-23 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
723 * === Released 2.8.1 ===
727 2005-08-20 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>
729 * glib/makefile.msc.in : link with ws2_32.lib
731 2005-08-18 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
733 * configure.in: Check for <sys/wait.h>
735 * glib/gbacktrace.c: Include <sys/wait.h> on if HAVE_SYS_WAIT_H.
737 2005-08-18 Ross Burton <ross@burtonini.com>
740 Optimise single-character insertions.
745 * tests/string-test.c:
746 Add tests for new optimisation, and fix a leak.
748 2005-08-17 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
750 * configure.in: Check for crt_externs.h and _NSGetEnviron.
752 * glib/gutils.c: On Darwin, include crt-externs.h and
753 define environ using _NSGetEnviron(). (#313731)
755 2005-08-16 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
757 * glib/gutils.c (g_get_any_init): Move the body of the big if...
758 (g_get_any_init_do): ... to this new function.
759 (g_get_any_init): Declare as inline.
760 (g_get_any_init_locked): New inline function, does the locking.
761 Make use of these two throughout the code.
763 2005-08-15 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
765 * glib/gbacktrace.c (g_on_error_stack_trace): Wait for
766 the child process and then simply return. This makes
767 The "S" option work as documented in g_on_error_query().
768 (#313125, Matthew F. Barnes)
770 * glib/gunicode.h: Update the link to Unicode category
771 values. (#313369, Behnam Esfahbod)
773 * glib/gqueue.c (g_queue_find_custom): Clarify docs
774 a little. (#311727, Tristan van Berkom)
776 * glib/abicheck.sh, gobject/abicheck.sh: Make the
777 check work on ia64 too, where some symbols ended up
778 in yet another section.
