196 Tue Dec 20 18:14:14 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
198 * glib/gslice.[hc]: added mem_error() and mem_assert() to test and
199 handle errors without depending on gmessage.c which might not be
200 setup when the error occours.
201 removed G_SLICE_CONFIG_ALWAYS_FREE config option, fixed the code so
202 always freeing can be achieved by adjusting the working set time to
203 0 with G_SLICE_CONFIG_WORKING_SET_MSECS.
204 added G_SLICE_CONFIG_COLOR_INCREMENT to test different color increments
205 (mainly 0 and 1). reduced the minimum block size to 128 bytes, to
206 minimize wastage if small amounts of differently sized structrues are
207 allocated, this does come at a performance cost of roughly 5% though.
208 fixed up block alignment calculation, so it works for varying
209 block sizes. only use strerror() not g_strerror() since the latter
210 depends on working GQuark and GSlice.
211 mem_error(): implemented in terms of fprintf and vfprintf.
213 * tests/slice-color.c: new program to test cache colorization effects.
215 * tests/slice-test.c: trade G_SLICE_CONFIG_ALWAYS_FREE for 0 duration
216 G_SLICE_CONFIG_WORKING_SET_MSECS.

226 and g_atomic_pointer_get. Add g_atomic_int_set and
227 g_atomic_pointer_set implementations for the !DEFINE_WITH_MUTEXES &&
228 G_ATOMIC_OP_MEMORY_BARRIER_NEEDED case, as well as defining them
229 as functions (additionally to the macros in the header) for the
230 !G_ATOMIC_OP_MEMORY_BARRIER_NEEDED case.
232 2005-12-16 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
234 * glib/gmem.c (g_allocator_new): Don't return a pointer to
235 a const struct, since apps expect to be able to modify it.
236 (#324179, J. Ali Harlow)
238 Tue Dec 13 10:13:32 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
240 * glib/gatomic.h: added g_atomic_pointer_set() and g_atomic_int_set()
241 for systems where the initialization of atomic variables requires a
242 write memory barrier.

264 - Call g_queue_insert_sorted() instead of duplicating the code.
265 - Call g_queue_sort() instead of duplicating the code.
266 - Invert sort function results to make sure the same sort function
267 gives the same results across glist, gslist, gqueue and

271 - Updated the sort function to reflect the example in the
272 documentation for gasyncqueue.c.

277 * docs/reference/glib/tmpl/linked_lists_double.sgml:
278 * docs/reference/glib/tmpl/linked_lists_single.sgml:
281 - Added g_list_insert_sorted_with_data () and
282 g_slist_insert_sorted_with_data ().
283 - Removed the extra check in g_list_sort() and g_slist_sort() for
284 GCompareDataFunc vs. GCompareFunc.

292 2005-12-06 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
294 * glib/gmem.h: Exempt GTK+ from the mem chunk deprecation, since
295 we need GTK+ 2.8 to compile against GLib 2.10.
297 2005-12-05 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
299 * tests/run-collate-test.sh: set LC_COLLATE, not LANG, to be sure

329 * glib/gasyncqueue.[ch]:
330 - Added support for sorting async queues by with _push_sorted(),
331 _push_sorted_unlocked(), _sort() and _sort_unlocked() (#323047).
334 * tests/asyncqueue-test.c:
335 - Added test case for gasyncqueue.c
337 Mon Dec 5 15:53:20 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
339 * glib/gslice.c: implement chain walking for arbitrary ->next pointer
340 offsets in g_slice_free_chain_with_offset() based on a patch by behdad
341 in bug 323178. moved time consuming logic from g_slice_free() out of
342 the inner loop, so g_slice_free_chain_with_offset() provides a real
343 performance benefit over g_slice_free1() now.
345 * glib/gslice.h: renamed g_slice_free_chain() to
346 g_slice_free_chain_with_offset(). implemented g_slice_free_chain() as
347 a type-safe macro as suggested in bug 323178.
348 simplified the macro implementation of g_slice_free() and implemented
349 it in a type safe manner for all compliers as suggested by Morten
350 Welinder <mortenw@gnome.org>.

373 Handle multiple user names with the same UID better.
374 (#319535, Laszlo Peter)
376 * glib/gutils.c (g_get_any_init_do): When determining user
377 data, first look up $LOGNAME. If the UID doesn't match
378 getuid(), fall back to the current behaviour of looking
379 up the user data based on getuid().
381 2005-12-04 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
383 * glib/gmacros.h (G_GNUC_WARN_UNUSED_RESULT): Add a macro
384 to make gcc warn if a function result is ignored. (#145466,

437 * tests/slice-test.c: extended to perform the benchmarking on the old
438 memchunk code if 'O' is selected.
440 * tests/memchunks.c: new file which contains the old GLib mem chunks
441 implementation with prefix old_mem_chunk_.
443 * tests/Makefile.am: added memchunks.c
445 Fri Dec 2 00:16:59 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>

461 * glib/gslice.[hc]: new slice allocator implementation.
463 * tests/slice-test.c: added random slice allocation test.
465 * glib/gthread.[hc]: removed newly added private thread mem API.
467 * glib/gthreadinit.h:
470 * glib/gmem.c: divided glib threading initialisation into three phases,
471 initialisation where private keys and messaging are not available (only
472 needed by gmem.c), initialisation without messaging but private keys
473 available (gslice.c, gmessage.c), and full fledged initialisers that
474 server the rest of glib. initialisation functions got renamed to reflect
475 the limitations of their corresponding phases.
477 * glib/gmem.c: removed memchunk code, defer allocations to
480 * glib/gmem.[hc]: removed g_slice_* skeletons.
482 * glib/glib.symbols: added g_slice_* symbols.

489 2005-12-01 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
491 * glib/gstdio.c (g_stat): In the Win32 implementation, strip
492 trailing slash(es) for non-root folders. stat() fails if non-root
493 folders are specified with trailing slashes. It's too much hassle
494 to demand that callers strip such slashes themselves, especially
495 as it is easy to get it wrong and strip the slash of a root
497 (g_rename): On NT-based Windows, use MoveFileEx() with
498 MOVEFILE_REPLACE_EXISTING to better match Unix behaviour.

524 Wed Nov 23 17:34:01 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
526 * glib/gdataset.c: access datalist flags via atomic pointer access
527 functions, instead of acquiring the dataset lock. this is faster and
528 also matches the atomic pointer readouts in gdatalistprivate.h and
529 direct pointer modifications required by gobject.c.

609 "stutter stepping" for going backwards. (#320638, Larry
614 * glib/gthread.c: const correctness fixes, found
615 by Arjan van de Ven and gcc.
617 2005-11-16 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
619 * docs/reference/glib/tmpl/unicode.sgml: Correct typo on mentioning
620 @G_UNICODE_BREAK_UNKNOWN that should be #G_UNICODE_BREAK_UNKNOWN.
622 2005-11-09 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
624 * glib/guniprop.c: Use bit hacks instead when checking a general
625 category value against multiple values.
627 * glib/gutf8.c: Change ISO10646 to Unicode in docs.
629 2005-11-10 Simos Xenitellis <simos@gnome.org>
631 * configure.in: Added tt (Tatar) to ALL_LINGUAS.
633 2005-11-05 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
635 * glib/giowin32.c (g_io_win32_set_flags): Don't call g_warning().
636 (#320688) Instead set error and return failure.
638 2005-11-07 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
640 * glib/gmain.c (g_main_dispatch): Don't call cb_funcs->unref
641 while holding the context lock. (#320886, Andy Wingo)
643 2005-11-07 Billy Biggs <vektor@dumbterm.net>
645 * tests/refcount/Makefile.am: Add a missing reference to libglib
646 in the LDADD for this test.
648 2005-11-07 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
650 * glib/gmem.c (g_allocator_new): We need to set n_preallocs to a
651 nonzero value, otherwise GTK+ 2.8 breaks when compiled against
652 GLib 2.9. (#320755, Luca Ferretti)
654 2005-11-04 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
656 * glib/Makefile.am: Apply a patch from Behdad Esfahbod to
657 use a faster lookup table for g_unichar_get_mirror_char().
658 * glib/gmirroringtable.h: The new table.
659 * glib/gunichartables.h: Remove bidi_mirroring_table.
660 * glib/gen-unicode-tables.pl: Don't generate the mirroring
662 * glib/glib-mirroring-tab/*: Sources for the program
663 which generated gmirroringtable.h.
665 * glib/glist.c: Avoid some code duplication.
667 * glib/gscanner.h: Include gdataset.h. (#320322)
669 * glib/gdebug.h: add new GDebugFlag for fatal_criticals
670 * glib/gmessages.c: (_g_debug_init): handle G_DEBUG=fatal_criticals,
671 to help find critical warnings in applications. (#320017,
674 2005-11-02 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
676 * glib/glib.symbols: Remove large amount of trailing whitespace
677 from one line. Remove #ifdef G_UNDEFINED from around
678 g_hash_table_new and g_hash_table_new_full symbols, what was the
679 purpose of that? Add the g_slice functions.
681 Tue Nov 1 16:24:20 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
683 * glib/gmem.[hc]: prepared deprecation of GMemChunk and GAllocator.
684 added g_slice_*() API to allocate and cache small bits of memory.
685 an actuall allocator implementation for g_slice_*() is still pending.
687 * glib/gthread.[hc]: changes from a patch by Matthias Clasen.
688 changed GRealThread list to use in-structure *next; fields instead
689 of GSList, in order for thread iteration to not depenend on g_slice_*()
691 _g_thread_mem_private_get():
692 _g_thread_mem_private_set(): added accessors for private memory,
693 needed because the ordinary GPrivate implementation relies on GArray
694 and GSList and therefore indirectly on working g_slice_*() allocations.
697 g_thread_foreach(): new public API function to loop over all existing threads.
711 removed GAllocator and free list usages and accompanying locks.
712 use g_slice_*() API to allocate and cache small bits of memory.
714 * glib/ghook.h: removed GMemChunk field from public API.
717 * glib/glist.h: deprecate allocator API, provide _free1() for consistency.
719 * glib/gnode.h: deprecate allocator API.
721 * glib/gmain.c: reordered GPollRec fields so g_slice_free_chain() can
722 be used for poll rec lists.
724 * glib/grel.c: removed mem chunk usage, and allocated tuples via g_slice_*().
725 g_relation_destroy(): free all tuples from the all_tuples hash table,
726 this effectively maintains the life time track keeping of tuples.
727 g_relation_delete_tuple(): free tuples which are removed from the
728 all_tuples hash table. this fixes a temporary leak that was present
729 in the memchunk code until the destruction of the relation.
731 2005-10-29 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
733 * tests/convert-test.c: Add some tests for conversions between
734 UTF-8, UCS-4 and UTF-16.
736 * glib/gutf8.c (g_utf8_to_ucs4, g_utf8_to_utf16): Fix handling
737 of len == -1, noticed by Morten Welinder.
739 2005-10-27 Erdal Ronahi <erdal.ronahi@gmail.com>
741 * configure.in: Added ku (Kurdish) to ALL_LINGUAS
743 2005-10-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
745 * glib/gutf8.c (g_ucs4_to_utf8): Don't set items_read twice
746 in the error case, and add some documentation. (#319806, Morten
749 2005-10-19 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
751 * configure.in: Use AC_CHECK_FUNCS for _NSGetEnviron, to get the
752 config.h symbol automatically. Fixes bug #313731.
754 2005-10-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
756 * glib/gwin32.c (g_win32_get_package_installation_directory):
757 Return a g_strdup()ed copy of the value stored in the hash table,
758 so that it can be g_free()d without leaving a dangling pointer in
759 the hash table. (#319232)
761 2005-10-06 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
763 * glib/gunicollate.c (g_utf8_collate_key_for_filename): Handle
764 all-zero sequences correctly. (#317930, Sebastien Bacher)
766 2005-10-05 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
768 * glib/gmarkup.c (g_markup_escape_text): Doc addition
770 * Makefile.am: Add Collation tests.
772 * tests/collate/*: Inputs and expected outputs for collation tests.
774 * tests/run-collate-tests.sh: Script to run collation tests.
776 * tests/unicode-collate.c (main): Rework slightly to make
777 it usable in unit tests. Also test g_utf8_collate_key_for_filename().
779 2005-10-01 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
781 * docs/reference/glib/tmpl/unicode.sgml:
782 * glib/gen-unicode-tables.pl:
784 * glib/gunichartables.h:
786 * tests/casefold.txt:
787 * tests/casemap.txt: Updated to Unicode 4.1. There are five new
788 GUnicodeBreakType types. That may break some applications, like
791 2005-09-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
793 * glib/gstrfuncs.c (g_ascii_strtoull): Add details to the
794 docs. (#314393, Matthew F. Barnes)
797 * glib/gprintf.h: Remove g_snprintf() and g_vsnprintf(), since
798 they are already declared in glib.h. This doesn't break documented
799 use of gprintf.h, but should probably be pointed out in the
800 release notes for 2.10. (#314232, Behdad Esfahbod)
802 Tue Sep 20 13:16:04 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
804 * glib/gpattern.c (g_pattern_ph_match): applied significant recursion
805 complexity optimization, based on a patch from Matthias Clasen.
807 * tests/patterntest.c: more tests, mostly from matthias.
809 2005-09-20 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
811 * glib/gqueue.c (g_queue_insert_sorted): Correct the docs.
812 (#316703, Mark Drago)
814 Mon Sep 19 17:23:23 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
816 * glib/gpattern.c: applied a patch from matthias which checks on the
817 upper bound of GPatternSpec length to optimize matches.
820 * tests/patterntest.c: added more match cases.
822 2005-09-16 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
824 * glib/gstrfuncs.c (g_ascii_strcasecmp, g_ascii_strncasecmp): Add
825 warning to doc comment that these functions should not be used on
826 encodings like CP932.
828 2005-09-14 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
830 * tests/keyfile-test.c: Add a test for grup names of length 1.
832 * glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_line_is_group): Accept group names
833 of length 1. (#316309)
835 2005-09-12 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
837 * glib/gmarkup.c (g_markup_escape_text): Clarify docs.
839 2005-09-11 Sebastian Wilhelmi <seppi@seppi.de>
841 * tests/refcount/Makefile.am (INCLUDES): Link the the refcount
842 tests to the system thread library $(G_THREAD_LIBS). Fixes #313744
845 2005-09-11 Kjartan Maraas <kmaraas@gnome.org>
847 * glib/gmain.c: (g_child_watch_prepare), (g_child_watch_check),
848 (child_watch_helper_thread): Remove some dead code. Closes
851 2005-09-07 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
853 * glib/Makefile.am: Create also a console version of the
854 gspawn-win32-helper program, gspawn-win32-helper-console.exe.
855 It's otherwise identical to gspawn-win32-helper.exe, except marked
856 as a console application (linked without the -mwindows option).
858 * glib/gspawn-win32.c (do_spawn_directly, do_spawn_with_pipes):
859 Drop the dont_wait parameter. Its truth value correlated 100% with
860 the NULLness of the exit_status parameter anyway, so it's enough
861 to check whether exit_status is NULL. Invert the sense of the
862 dont_return_handle parameter and rename it to do_return_handle, to
863 make the code easier to read by avoiding double negations.
865 (g_spawn_sync_utf8, g_spawn_async_with_pipes_utf8): Modify calls
866 to do_spawn_with_pipes() accordingly.
868 (do_spawn_with_pipes): If we have a console, use the console
869 version of the helper program, otherwise use the GUI one. This
870 avoids extra console windows opening up in some situations. (In
871 case a console application uses the GUI gspawn-win32-helper.exe to
872 spawn another console application we would get a separate console
873 for the spawned console application).
875 * glib-zip.in: Distribute also gspawn-win32-helper-console.exe.
877 2005-09-05 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
879 * glib/gmappedfile.c (g_mapped_file_new): Report an error
880 if the file is too large. (#315275, Kjartan Maraas)
882 * glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_load_from_fd): The return value
883 of read() is signed. (#315273, Kjartan Maraas)
885 2005-08-31 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
887 * glib/gutils.h: Wrapping atexit() is a bad idea on Windows, where
888 the EXE and each DLL have their own atexit function chains.
890 #define g_atexit as atexit instead. This means it has a
891 better chance of doing what the caller wants. For instance,
892 gtkhtml calls g_atexit() registering a function in gtkhtml
893 itself. This caused a crash when g_atexit() was implemented as a
894 function in the GLib DLL. The gtkhtml DLL was already unloaded by
895 the time the GLib DLL got unloaded.
897 * glib/gutils.c: #undef the #define mentioned above, to also get a
898 real g_atexit() into the DLL for backward compatibility. Document
899 the Windows behaviour of g_atexit(), and document the varying ways
900 atexit() can behave in the context of dynamically loaded modules
903 2005-08-31 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
907 * glib/gdataset.c: Add string interning functions.
909 2005-08-28 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
911 * glib/giochannel.c: Unify some near-duplicate strings. (#314654,
914 2005-08-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
916 * configure.in: Bump version to 2.9.0
918 2005-08-25 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
920 Make also the g_spawn*() functions take parameters in the GLib
921 file name encoding, i.e. UTF-8, on Windows. Has no impact on Unix
922 API or ABI. Like the other GLib API that was earlier changed to
923 use UTF-8 on Windows, the names of the functions that take UTF-8
924 have _utf8 suffixes added by using preprocessor macros in the
925 header file. The old names are kept for functions with the old
926 behaviour, taking parameters in the system codepage, for DLL ABI
929 * glib/gspawn.h: On Win32 add the suffix _utf8 to the names of the
930 g_spawn*() functions.
932 * glib/gspawn-win32.c: Use wide-char API on NT-based
933 Windows. Convert parameters from UTF-8 to wide chars (NT) or
934 system codepage (Win9x) and call the C library _wspawn*() or
935 spawn*() functions respectvely. Add DLL ABI stability versions
936 that take parameters in the system codepage.
938 * glib/gspawn-win32-helper.c: On NT-based Windows use the
939 wide-char versions of argv and envp, and use wide-char API to
940 change directory and spawn the program to run. Remove the verbose
941 debugging output, it was too complex to modify for the wide-char
942 features. (Just add temporary debugging printouts if needed, no
943 need to have them permanently in the source.)
945 * glib/gspawn.c: Corresponding documentation updates.
947 * glib/glib.symbols: Corresponding changes: Mark the ABI stability
948 symbols as PRIVATE, add the new _utf8-suffixed ones.
950 2005-08-24 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
952 * glib/gtypes.h (G_MININT64): Cast the constant to gint64; it is
953 guint64 otherwise and that can produce warnings about comparison
954 between signed and unsigned.
956 2005-08-23 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
958 * glib/gutils.c: Fix the crt_externs.h include.
960 2005-08-23 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
962 * NEWS: Fix spelling of my first name.
964 2005-08-23 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
968 * === Released 2.8.1 ===
972 2005-08-20 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>

982 2005-08-18 Ross Burton <ross@burtonini.com>
985 Optimise single-character insertions.
990 * tests/string-test.c:
991 Add tests for new optimisation, and fix a leak.
993 2005-08-17 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
995 * configure.in: Check for crt_externs.h and _NSGetEnviron.
997 * glib/gutils.c: On Darwin, include crt-externs.h and
998 define environ using _NSGetEnviron(). (#313731)
1000 2005-08-16 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
1002 * glib/gutils.c (g_get_any_init): Move the body of the big if...
1003 (g_get_any_init_do): ... to this new function.
1004 (g_get_any_init): Declare as inline.
1005 (g_get_any_init_locked): New inline function, does the locking.
1006 Make use of these two throughout the code.
1008 2005-08-15 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
1010 * glib/gbacktrace.c (g_on_error_stack_trace): Wait for
1011 the child process and then simply return. This makes
1012 The "S" option work as documented in g_on_error_query().
1013 (#313125, Matthew F. Barnes)
1015 * glib/gunicode.h: Update the link to Unicode category
1016 values. (#313369, Behnam Esfahbod)
1018 * glib/gqueue.c (g_queue_find_custom): Clarify docs
1019 a little. (#311727, Tristan van Berkom)
1021 * glib/abicheck.sh, gobject/abicheck.sh: Make the
1022 check work on ia64 too, where some symbols ended up
1023 in yet another section.
