1 Sun Oct 25 01:24:01 CST 1998 Shawn T. Amundson <amundson@gtk.org>
8 * docs/glib.texi: Moved docs from gtk and created glib-config.1
9 from gtk-config.1 in gtk
13 * sanity_check: added in docs directory, change rule 'release'
14 to 'snapshot' and created a new 'release' rule for doing the
15 distribution. Added in a 'sanity' rule.
19 * INSTALL: Updated for the release
21 Sun Oct 25 07:30:10 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
24 (g_scanner_peek_next_char):
25 (g_scanner_get_char): no more characters are available if read() returns
26 anything less than 1, not only on 0 return.
29 * gstrfuncs.c: final API cleanup of string arrays to suit sopwith's
30 argument order requirements.
31 (g_strsplit): renamed from g_str_array_split().
32 (g_strjoinv): renamed from g_str_array_joinv(), string array is
33 now passed as last parameter. removed `const' qualifier from string
34 array pointer (again).
35 (g_strjoin): new function from sopwith to concatenate strings with
36 an additional seperator.
37 (g_strfreev): renamed from g_str_array_free.
39 Sat Oct 24 22:23:04 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
41 * gnode.c: small fix to g_node_children_foreach to make it work right.
42 From Paco Moya <paco@cadnotebk17.eecs.berkeley.edu>
44 Wed Oct 21 19:22:58 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
46 * configure.in (G_MODULE_HAVE_DLERROR): reverted part of the changes
47 from Sebastian Wilhelmi (1998-10-20). don't specify a specific loading
48 behaviour (i.e. RTLD_NOW) when we are not sure whether it is supplied.
49 changed the return value from (!f2 && f1) to (!f2 || f1) so we default
50 to not needing an underscore. reverted the extra plugin.c building,
51 because .lo files are not ELF libraries, this can't work. This needs
52 further investigation on Solaris...
54 Wed Oct 21 17:03:05 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
57 * gstrfuncs.c: API cleanups of the new g_str* functions for consistency
58 with the existing naming scheme for g_str* functions. grouped the g_str*
59 functions that will return a newly allocated string seperatedly. all of
60 the in_place arguments were skipped, the caller is supposed to pass a
61 g_strdup()ed string if he wants to retrive a new copy. indentation and
62 coding style fixups. added some g_return_if_fail() statements.
63 string array functions are prefixed with g_str_array_.
64 (g_strdelimit): return the modified string like all other g_str*
65 functions, that operate in place.
66 (g_strchug): renamed from g_str_chug(), removed in_place argument.
67 (g_strchomp): renamed from g_str_chomp(), removed in_place argument.
68 (g_strstrip): renamed from g_str_strip(), removed in_place argument.
69 (g_str_array_join): renamed from g_strconcatv(), since it actually
70 operates on a string array and has totaly different semantics from
71 g_strconcat(). check for separator != NULL, don't segfault if the first
72 string is NULL. removed the `const' from the string array that's passed,
73 so users can operate on gchar** string arrays.
74 (g_str_array_split): renamed from g_str_split() because we actually
75 produce a string array. reimplemented this function for efficiency.
76 removed macro aliases g_str_joinv and g_str_join.
78 1998-10-20 Elliot Lee <sopwith@redhat.com>
80 * glib.h, gstrfuncs.c: Move string join/split/free routines from
81 libgnome/gnome-string, rename, and add g_str_chug.
83 1998-10-20 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
85 * configure.in: made the check for needed _ in module's func-names
86 work on solaris. (G_MODULE_NEED_USCORE must be set outside
87 AC_CACHE_VAL, dlopen(0,0) refused to work on solaris).
89 Tue Oct 20 03:32:58 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
92 * acconfig.h: added test for endianness
94 * glib.h: #define endian macros for system and some conversions
97 Thu Oct 8 06:47:27 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
100 * gdataset.c: removed functions g_dataset_id_set_destroy and
101 g_datalist_id_set_destroy and macros g_dataset_set_destroy and
102 g_datalist_set_destroy.
103 added new functions g_dataset_id_remove_no_notify and
104 g_datalist_id_remove_no_notify plus associated macros
105 g_dataset_remove_no_notify and g_datalist_remove_no_notify, which
106 will remove a certain data portion without invokation of its destroy
107 notifier, this should only be used in very controled circumstances.
109 Wed Oct 7 05:31:24 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
112 removed the #pragma } statement after extern "C" {. use
113 (c-set-offset 'inextern-lang 0) to fixup emacs cc-mode indentation.
116 * ghook.c: API and code cleanups. changed the G_HOOK_ACTIVE and
117 G_HOOK_IN_CALL enum vals to G_HOOK_FLAG_ACTIVE and G_HOOK_FLAG_IN_CALL.
118 changed the G_HOOK_IS_ACTIVE() and G_HOOK_IS_IN_CALL() macros to
119 G_HOOK_ACTIVE() and G_HOOK_IN_CALL().
120 fixed the g_hook_find* functions, so they iterate over non-active
122 (g_hook_first_valid):
123 (g_hook_next_valid): added an extra argument gboolean may_be_in_call,
124 which indicates whether G_HOOK_IN_CALL() hooks are considered valid
125 or not. these two functions are meant as iterators for the hook list
126 invocation, so they need to a) provide functionality to implement
127 may_recurse bahaviour and b) only walk active hooks.
129 Tue Oct 6 14:29:47 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
131 * gmem.c (g_malloc0): fixed memory offsett when ENABLE_MEM_CHECK is
132 defined and ENABLE_MEM_PROFILE is not (patch from Martin Pool
133 <mbp@wistful.humbug.org.au>).
135 Sat Oct 3 01:18:10 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
139 (g_hook_list_invoke):
140 (g_hook_list_invoke):
141 (g_hook_list_marshal): properly handle the first valid hook to call,
142 it maybe IN_CALL already.
143 (g_hook_list_marshal): minor name change.
145 Fri Oct 2 23:21:21 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
148 * ghook.c: renamed GHook.id to GHook.hook_id so we don't get troubles
149 with ObjC which reserves "id" as a keyword (Raja R Harinath
150 <harinath@cs.umn.edu>).
152 Wed Sep 30 10:53:03 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
154 * Makefile.am: added ghook.c.
157 * ghook.c: generic callback maintenance functions.
159 * glib.h: define G_GNUC_UNUSED.
161 Fri Sep 25 00:04:37 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
163 * configure.in: version bump to 1.1.4, binary age 0, interface age 0.
165 * glib.h (struct _GScanner): dumped peeked_char and text_len in favour
166 of *text_end and *buffer for buffered read()s.
168 * gscanner.c: changed peeking and retrival of next character so we
169 have buffered reads. fixed minor bug with number parsing error
170 reporting. made some static!!! variables local ones (why did we use
171 static temporary variables in the lowlevel tokenization code anyways?).
173 Mon Sep 21 23:23:10 CDT 1998 Shawn T. Amundson <amundson@gtk.org>
175 * Released GLib 1.1.3
177 Mon Sep 21 07:43:13 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
179 * glib.h: added g_renew() which works as g_new() for g_realloc().
181 Mon Sep 21 02:22:12 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
183 * NEWS file update for upcoming release of GLib + GModule
184 version 1.1.3, binary age 0, interface age 0. (GModule uses
185 the same version numbers as GLib.)
187 * glib.h: swap the inclusion of of float.h and limits.h to work
188 around a egcs 1.1 oddity on Solaris 2.5.1 (fix provided by
189 Per Abrahamsen <abraham@dina.kvl.dk>).
192 * gscanner.c: renamed the GValue union to GTokenValue, this should
193 not affect source compatibility in most cases.
195 * ghash.c: added some g_return_if_fail() statements. make
196 g_hash_table_lookup_node() an inline function so we save an extra
197 function invokation on lookups.
199 Sun Sep 20 18:21:46 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
201 * ltconfig.sh: Patch to libtool-1.2b to make --disable-static
204 Sun Sep 20 02:09:44 1998 Josh MacDonald <jmacd@axis.hip.berkeley.edu>
206 * glib.h: New function g_hash_table_foreach_remove is similar to
207 g_hash_table_foreach, but the callback's return value indicates
208 whether to remove the element (if TRUE) or not (if FALSE).
209 Returns the number of elements deleted.
211 Fri Sep 18 11:31:50 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
214 * gstrfuncs.c: added g_memdup implementation
216 Fri Sep 18 18:46:14 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
219 * gdataset.c: make the datalists a safe type (not using a generic
220 gpointer) by expecting a GData* argument in the g_datalist functions.
221 provide g_dataset_foreach() and g_datalist_foreach() functions that
222 allow a GDataForeachFunc function to walk the data lists.
223 (g_dataset_destroy_internal): made this function truely reentrant (i.e.
224 can be called from within destroy notifiers as well).
225 the *_foreach functions are _not_ reentrant (unless all the other
226 dataset and datalist functions).
228 Fri Sep 18 03:41:20 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
230 * gtree.c (g_tree_new): check for key_compare_func != NULL (reported
233 Thu Sep 17 18:55:46 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
235 * config.h.in: removed from repository
239 * mkinstalldirs: updated to latest automake version
241 Thu Sep 17 06:36:25 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
244 * gdataset.c: implemented g_datalist_* along the lines of g_dataset,
245 but operates on an opaque gpointer *datalist; pointer, e.g. for the
246 implementation of GtkObject named data.
247 we cache a certain portion of the already freed data entries now, to
248 gain a slight performance improve with data reallocation.
250 Tue Sep 15 14:57:30 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
252 * Makefile.am glib-config.in l*: Update to libtool-1.2b,
253 change library versioning scheme to drop LT_RELEASE
254 from the -l line, while keeping it in the soname.
256 Fri Sep 11 02:11:46 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
258 * glib.h: explicitely include the prototypes for inline functions
259 to cure gcc warnings for -Wmissing-prototypes.
261 Wed Sep 9 02:52:04 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
263 * configure.in: added -posix check for NeXTStep
265 Tue Sep 8 05:04:06 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
267 * glib.h: abandon the use of ATEXIT(), we keep the fallback
268 macros for backwards compatibility. people ought to use g_atexit().
270 * gutils.c (g_atexit): new function to take over the implementation
271 of ATEXIT. this function is guarranteed to succeed, similar to
274 Mon Sep 7 20:07:38 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
276 * configure.in: comment the -std1 check and save LIBS properly
278 Mon Sep 7 07:53:21 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
280 * configure.in: check for all three inline keywords individually.
282 * glib.h: inlining hassle. for compilers that don't allow the `inline'
283 keyword, mostly because of strict ANSI C compliance or dumbness, we try
284 to fall back to either `__inline__' or `__inline'.
285 we define G_CAN_INLINE, if the compiler seems to be actually *capable*
286 to do function inlining, in which case inline function bodys do make
287 sense. we also define G_INLINE_FUNC to properly export the function
288 prototypes if no inlinig can be performed. we special case most of the
289 stuff, so inline functions can have a normal implementation by defining
290 G_INLINE_FUNC to extern and G_CAN_INLINE to 1.
292 * ltconfig: (compiler PIC flag test): special case linux for non
293 aout systems to honour lcc's position independant code (cases
294 "linux*aout)" and "linux*)" got added). (this needs to go into
295 libtool which does an advanced test, checking for __LCC__).
297 * autogen.sh: take $CC=lcc into account by invoking automake with
298 --include-deps so lcc isn't scared by gcc's auto-dependancy
299 generation code. care about $ACLOCAL_FLAGS. optionally feature
302 * minor fixups in other places to cure some of lcc's warnings.
304 Sun Sep 6 19:08:53 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
306 * configure.in: added -std1 check for ANSI compliance (from gtk)
308 Sun Sep 6 12:31:50 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
310 * glib.h: provide proper ATEXIT behavior on NeXTStep by !atexit
312 Sat Sep 5 18:03:36 1998 Tom Tromey <tromey@cygnus.com>
314 * gutils.c (GLIB_INLINE): Define.
315 * glib.h (GLIB_INLINE): New define.
316 (g_bit_nth_msf): Use it. Also, add prototype.
317 (g_bit_storage): Likewise.
318 (g_bit_storage): Likewise.
320 Sat Sep 5 04:40:02 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
323 (g_chunk_new0): use g_mem_chunk_alloc0() to allocate the memchunk,
324 so the correct size of the memchunk is allocated with 0's and not
325 a memory portion of the size of the desired type.
327 * gmem.c: new function g_mem_chunk_alloc0() which will initialize
328 a memory area allocated with g_mem_chunk_alloc() with 0's.
330 Wed Sep 2 19:13:28 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
332 * garray.c glib.h (g_array_[ap/pre]pend_vals): make
335 Wed Aug 26 06:32:40 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
338 * gstrfuncs.c: new function g_strnfill() to return a new string
339 of specified length, filled with a specific character.
341 Tue Sep 1 23:46:31 1998 Josh MacDonald <jmacd@axis.hip.berkeley.edu>
343 * testglib.c (main): Update the array tests. Reduce the number of
344 iterations for the prepend test from 10000 to 100 since it is
345 O(n^2) and was taking longer than I would like to wait.
347 * garray.c: I've worked on the GArray interface, mostly. It was
348 seriously broken before and I hate to do it, but this is going to
349 break some code. It is important to do this now, because more and
350 more people are starting to use glib and the interface was both
351 broken and inconsistent. First, rename the _truncate functions of
352 both the GArray and GPtrArray classes to _set_size, since this
353 function can also be used to extend the arrays. GArray now
354 accepts two more initialization arguments: clear and element_size.
355 Instead of providing the type to each access function, the array
356 now stores the element size. Clear, if set, causes the library to
357 zero element's memory as the array expands. The major broken-ness
358 here was that array->len was in bytes, not elements. Now, since
359 the array knows its element size, array->len is correct and I have
360 removed the g_array_length macro. The only macro which now
361 accepts the type as an argument is g_array_index, which casts the
362 element to the right type--this interface does not change. The
363 append and prepend functions simply need the types removed.
364 g_ptr_array_remove_index now returns the removed element.
366 * gprimes.c (g_spaced_primes_closest): Move this function out of
367 ghash.c and rename it from g_hash_closest_prime. Fix the primes
368 so that they are actually prime (they weren't all -- isn't that
371 Mon Aug 24 02:08:56 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
376 (g_vsprintf): removed this function which was not publically
377 exported in glib.h. to export it, it should have been named
378 differently in the first place, since its semantics differ from
379 vsprintf(). apart from that, it was a possible cause for
380 problems since it worked on a previously allocated memory area and
381 was used in a lot places of glib. exporting it would have been a
382 guararant for problems with threaded programs.
383 (g_printf_string_upper_bound): exported this function to return
384 a string size, guarranteed to be big enough to hold the fully
385 expanded format+args string. added 'q', 'L' and 'll' flag handling.
386 in fact, the newly allocated area is in most cases much bigger than
388 (g_strdup_vprintf()): new function returning a newly allocated string
389 containing the contents of *format and associated args (size is
390 calculated with g_printf_string_upper_bound()).
391 (g_strdup_printf): new function which wraps g_strdup_vprintf().
393 * configure.in: check for va_copy() or __va_copy() alternatively.
394 check whether va_lists can be copyied by value.
396 * glib.h: provide a definition for G_VA_COPY.
402 pass va_lists by value, not by reference, since this causes problems
403 on platforms that implement va_list as as arrays. internaly, use
404 G_VA_COPY (new_arg, org_arg); va_end (new_arg); to produce a second
405 va_list variable, if multiple passes are required. changed all
410 renamed g_debug() to g_on_error_query(), cleaned up a bit.
411 renamed g_stack_trace() to g_on_error_stack_trace() since both
412 functions cluttered different namespaces.
413 there is an appropriate comment in glib.h now that explains the
414 unix and gdb specific dependencies of both functions.
415 removed g_attach_process().
416 g_on_error_stack_trace() should probably be handled with caution,
417 i've seem several different linux versions (2.0.x) become unstable
418 after invokation of this function.
420 1998-08-18: Elliot Lee <sopwith@redhat.com>
422 * In gmem.c, add the ability to exclude memory chunks from the
423 memory profiling information.
425 Tue Aug 18 18:23:09 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
428 * gstrfuncs.c: added g_strndup
430 Tue Aug 18 04:40:17 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
433 * gmessages.c: new function g_log_set_always_fatal() to set an
434 additional fatal_mask for log levels that are considered to be fatal
435 globally (required by gtk). since this mask is not domain-associated,
436 it is restricted to the log levels, introduced by glib itself.
440 * gtree.c (g_tree_node_check):
441 don't use g_print() calls for informational/debugging output,
442 but log all this stuff through g_log() with G_LOG_LEVEL_INFO.
443 libraries shouldn't use printf(), g_print() or g_printerr() at all.
445 Tue Aug 18 02:46:44 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
448 * glib.h (__STRICT_ANSI__): if __STRICT_ANSI__ is defined, make
449 `inline' a noop, since strict ANSI rules don't permit `inline'.
451 Mon Aug 17 15:21:42 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
453 * grel.c: made private functions static.
455 Sun Aug 16 23:23:46 CDT 1998 Shawn T. Amundson <amundson@gtk.org>
457 * gmodule/Makefile.am: added gmodule-dl.c and gmodule-dld.c to
459 * glib.spec: version = 1.1.3
461 Mon Aug 17 01:46:14 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
463 * glib.m4: feature an extra MODULES parameter, so glib-config can
464 be invoked with the "gmodule" argument.
466 * glib.h: changed the log level to G_LOG_LEVEL_CRITICAL for all
467 g_return*_if_fail statements, and made them issue a message
468 like "assertion `%s' failed".
470 * gmessages.c (g_logv): ugh, don't pass log_domain as NULL to
473 Sun Aug 16 20:28:27 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
475 * version bump to 1.1.3, binary age 0, interface age 0.
477 * glib.h: be nice to platforms that don't have gint64 and don't
478 issue #warning on every compilation. since glib doesn't require
479 gint64 itself, packages that need gint64 should test for this
483 * gutils.c: added a new function g_vsnprintf().
485 Sun Aug 16 Elliot Lee
487 glib.h: #error out if we don't recognize the SIZEOF_VOID_P
488 #warning if no gint64
490 Fri Aug 14 16:41:53 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
492 * glib.h: added static inline functions for bit mask tests:
493 g_bit_nth_lsf, g_bit_nth_msf and g_bit_storage.
495 Fri Aug 13 14:23:37 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
499 revised the message handling system, which is now based on a new
500 mechanism g_log*. most of the assertment macros got adapted to
501 feature the new g_log() call with an additional specification of
502 the log level in a preprocessor macro G_LOG_DOMAIN. if G_LOG_DOMAIN
503 is undefined upon the includion of glib.h, it'll be defined with a
504 value of (NULL) and thus preserves the original bahaviour for
505 warning and error messages. the message handler setting functions
506 for g_warning, g_error and g_message are only provided for backwards
507 compatibility and might get removed somewhen.
509 * Makefile.am: feature the G_LOG_DOMAIN macro to set the log domain
510 to "GLib" upon compilation. we currently have to add this definition
511 to the DEFS variable.
512 * testglib.c: we need an ugly #undef G_LOG_DOMAIN at the start
513 of this file currently, since automake doesn't support per target
516 * glib.h: changed some gints to gbooleans, made a few const corrections,
517 removed some superfluous G_STMT_START{}G_STMT_END wrappers, added some
518 in other required places.
522 (g_node_insert_before):
524 (g_node_append_data):
525 (g_node_prepend_data):
526 (g_node_insert_data_before):
527 (g_node_insert_data):
529 return (node), so these macros/functions can be usefully chained with
532 Mon Aug 10 17:56:11 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
534 * glib.h: it's GTime now, and it's back!
536 Mon Aug 10 02:17:19 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
538 * Makefile.am: minor hack to cause SUBDIRS (gmodule) to be build
539 last. we do this by making all-recursive-am depend on all-am.
541 Sun Aug 9 15:56:11 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
543 * configure.in: added GModule checks. generate files in gmodule/.
544 * glib-config.in: support library specifications `glib' and `gmodule'.
545 * Makefile.am: feature the gmodule/ subdir.
547 Wed Aug 5 10:04:29 PDT 1998 Shawn T. Amundson <amundson@gtk.org>
549 * Released GLib 1.1.2
551 Wed Aug 05 01:15:36 1998 George Lebl <jirka@5z.com>
553 * testglib.c: fix 64-bitness in g_prints, sizeof doesn't
554 seem to return int so I cast it for printing, probably

573 allocated string, instead of a g_getcwd() variant that operates
575 export glib_interface_age and glib_binary_age.
576 as a convenience, macro definitions have been added for
577 g_node_insert_data, g_node_insert_data_before, g_node_append_data and

609 * Released GLib 1.1.0
611 Mon Jul 27 01:02:27 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
613 * glib.h: #if 0'ed out the GTime definition, until it is definitively
614 needed. #if 0'ed out the g_getcwd() version, because it is the wrong
617 Sat Jul 25 16:09:00 1998 Mark Crichton <crichton@expert.cc.purdue.edu>
619 * glib.h: gtime changed to g_time. gtime is used in
620 /usr/include/time.h in NetBSD, causing multiple headaches.
621 If this isn't the right way of fixing it.... ;)
623 Thu Jul 23 00:29:14 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
626 * gscanner.c: new functions to make a scanner scope sensitive wrt

662 Tue Jul 7 03:18:58 EEST 1998 Lauri Alanko <nether@gimp.org>
665 * ghash.c: Generic cleanup, added a function:
666 (g_hash_table_lookup_full): Return whether the lookup succeeded,
667 and also retrieve the key and value. This allows one to
668 distinguish between failed lookup and finding a NULL, and also
669 allows one to free a key in the hash.

692 * gdataset.c: removed g_dataset_try_key, g_dataset_force_id and
693 g_dataset_retrive_key in favour of GQuarks.
694 a GQuark is an numeric id wich is associated with a certain string.
695 (g_quark_try_string): try to get the quark associated with this string,
696 if the lookup failed return 0.
697 (g_quark_from_string): get the associated quark for a string, if there
698 isn't currently a GQuark associated with this string, then allocate a
699 new quark and return that.
700 (g_quark_from_static_string): like the above function, but the string
701 isn't strdup()ed to save memory.
702 (g_quark_to_string): get the string that is associated with a certain
705 * gdataset.c (g_dataset_id_set_data_full): invoke the destroy function
706 _after_ the new data has been setup.
708 Thu Jun 18 02:35:21 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@gtk.org>
710 * glib.h: Changed messages for g_return_[val]_if_fail to

725 Fri Jun 12 00:39:28 1998 Josh MacDonald <jmacd@icw.EECS.Berkeley.EDU>
727 * glib.h: add new hash and equal functions g_int_*. complement
728 g_direct_hash with g_direct_equal.
730 * grel.c: new file, GRelations implement tuples of N-N mappings.
731 A comment in glib.h briefly describes the interface.
733 * ghash.c: new function, g_hash_table_size
735 * glib.h: new typedefs, gsize, gssize, gtime.
737 * garray.c: new functions implementing a simplified GArray. This

739 remove elements, much like java.lang.Vector.
741 * garray.c: new functions for the single-byte special case of
742 GArray. The functions g_byte_array* operate on arrays of bytes.
743 Internally, a GArray is used.
745 * testglib.c: tests for g_ptr_array, g_byte_array, and g_relation...
747 1998-06-11 Federico Mena Quintero <federico@nuclecu.unam.mx>

759 * acinclude.m4: New file. Contains `libtool.m4' from libtool-1.2,
760 the version from which glib's libtool forked. Needed for people
761 who use post-1.2 alphas of libtool.
762 * configure.in (enable_mem_check, enable_mem_profile): Replace
763 `echo -n' with AC_MSG_CHECKING.

783 gtk-jbuhler-980516-0 (Jeremy Buhler <jbuhler@cs.washington.edu>) ]
785 * glib.h ghash.c gstring.c gdataset.c gutils.c:
786 - Added new typedef g_const_pointer; expunged all incorrect
787 uses of 'const gpointer'.
788 - Fixed up warnings that that created,
789 - Changed GHashFunc and GCompareFunc to take g_const_pointer
790 arguments. (Necessary, but will cause warnings in existing
792 - Added other new const in harmless positions.
794 Mon Jun 8 01:06:47 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
796 * glib.h: added enum-helper macros for code generation.

864 table (GScanner does value-wrapping).
866 Thu May 14 04:14:12 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
868 * glib.h: typedef gint gboolean;
869 this is needed to provide portability with big-endian platforms (e.g.
870 try sizeof(bool) for c++ on big-endians - it's 4).
871 this is also needed to maintain some_union.d_gint==some_union.d_gboolean.
872 plus, gint to gboolean casts and vice versa need to be possible without
875 Tue May 12 19:22:58 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@gtk.org>

898 g_strsignal implementation on FreeBSD boxes.
900 Mon May 11 09:53:43 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
902 * configure.in: preserve automake CFLAGS.
904 * Makefile.am: fully rename the created library to libglib-1.1.la.
905 this means we need to change certain portions of the Makefile.am on
906 major/minor version bumps.
908 * ltmain.sh: the -release option is not required anymore.
910 * glib.h: provide G_GNUC_FUNCTION and G_GNUC_PRETTY_FUNCTION to

922 * glib/gmem.c: Experimentally restore GMemChunk
923 to its primeval state - where mem areas are
924 freed incrementally instead of searching the tree
925 every time a mem area is completely empty. Also,
926 always keep one mem chunk around. (Reduced calls
927 to malloc() a lot, but doesn't really improve
928 performance significiantly)
930 Thu May 7 08:17:28 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
932 * glib.h (G_GNUC_PRINTF):

962 but will immediately change the library name.
964 * Makefile.am: specify -postfix and -version-info
966 * configure.in: version bump to 1.1.0. added GLIB_INTERFACE_AGE and
967 GLIB_BINARY_AGE. calculate LT_* variables for libtool.
969 Fri May 1 16:36:08 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@gtk.org>
971 * gutils.c: (g_strcasecmp). Check for isupper before
972 taking tolower, and account for macroized tolower.
974 * gutils.c (g_error): Check for recursion.
976 1998-04-27 Elliot Lee <sopwith@cuc.ml.org>
978 * glist.c (g_list_position): New function to find the position of
979 a link in a list - should be the inverse of g_list_nth(), but

984 * gstring.c : Check arguments more carefully,
985 (gtk-draco-980423-1.patch; ramsey@rhrk.uni-kl.de)
987 Tue Apr 7 19:36:48 1998 Owen Taylor <owt1@cornell.edu>
989 * gutils.c (g_direct_compare): Removed, because that's what
990 a NULL comparison function means. And it wasn't 64 bit safe.
992 Mon Apr 6 18:43:25 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
994 * gscanner.c (g_scanner_get_token_ll): fixed a bug that caused floats
995 of the format ".xxx" to be parsed as "xxx".
997 Fri Apr 3 20:36:35 1998 Owen Taylor <owt1@cornell.edu>
999 * gutils.c (g_parse_debug_string): Make debug string
1000 parsine case-insensitive

1110 * gstring.c: g_string_prepend and g_string_prepend_c had
1111 interchanged src and dest parameters for g_memmove. Fixed.
1113 Tue Jan 27 01:38:52 PST 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
1115 * gslist.c: fixed a really, really lame error. g_slist_insert
1116 didn't hook the data in! Reworked the routine to reflect the
1117 functionality of g_list
1119 Wed Jan 21 01:13:25 1998 Tim Janik <timj@psynet.net>
1121 * Applied patch from (Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>)
1122 to add function g_snprintf.
1123 * configure.in (AC_CHECK_FUNCS): Check for vsnprintf.
1124 * glib.h: Add prototype for g_snprintf.
1125 * glibconfig.h.in: Add HAVE_VSNPRINTF.
1126 * gutils.c (g_snprintf): new function.
1128 Sat Jan 17 23:52:40 1998 Owen Taylor <owt1@cornell.edu>
1130 * gstring.{c,h} gscanner.c:
1131 renamed g_string_equal => g_str_equal
1132 renamed g_string_hash => g_str_hash
1133 And const corrected. Old functions left in for now.
1135 Fri Jan 9 20:03:46 1998 Tim Janik <timj@psynet.net>
1137 * gutils.c (g_strerror): changed message for EAGAIN from
1138 "no more processes" to "try again" since EAGAIN is used with
1139 functions else than fork().
1141 * gscanner.c (g_scanner_get_token_ll): use strtol() instead of
1142 strtoul() to avoid conflicts with solaris.
1144 * merged the glib portions from Jan 2 to Jan 7 out of gtk+/ChangeLog
1147 Wed Jan 7 02:14:30 PST 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
1152 * testglib.c: Added g_[s]list_insert_sorted function
1153 and appropriate tests in testglib
1155 Sat Jan 3 20:23:25 1998 Owen Taylor <owt1@cornell.edu>
1157 * glib.h: Changed guint32 -> guint for bitfields.
1158 (Bitfields must be int or unsigned int?)
1160 Fri Jan 2 23:52 PST 1998 Jay Painter <jpaint@serv.net>
1164 * glib.h: reverted glibconfig.h and glib.h files back to the
1165 way they were before my ugly hack.
1167 * gscanner.c: removed inlines from clist and gscanner
1169 Tue Dec 23 02:49:51 1997 Tim Janik <timj@psynet.net>
1171 * gscanner.c: new file for GScanner: Flexible lexical scanner for
1173 * glib_pre2.h: added GScanner includes. added g_strconcat and g_strtod.
1174 gutils.c (g_strconcat): new function for string concatenation of NULL
1175 terminated parameter list.
1176 (g_strtod): new function to perform best string to double conversion
1177 with or without consideration of the current locale.
1179 Mon Dec 15 19:33:58 1997 Tim Janik <timj@psynet.net>
1181 * glist.c: minor optimizations:
1182 (g_list_append): `if' optimized for common code path, commented out
1183 unneccessary `assert', saved one variable assignment.
1184 (g_list_prepend): saved two (conditioned) variable assignment.
1185 (g_list_insert): saved one (conditioned) variable assignment,
1186 saved one variable assignment.
1187 (g_list_remove): `if' optimized for common code path, saved two
1188 variable assignments by using `g_list_free_1' (which is even
1189 faster) instead of `g_list_free'.
1190 (g_list_reverse): saved allocation of one variable, saved one
1191 variable assignment.
1193 Wed Dec 10 23:27:20 1997 Tim Janik <timj@psynet.net>
1197 * glib.h: this file now gets concatenated by makeglib_h from
1198 glib_pre1.h and glib_pre2.h to merge in glibconfig.h wich got
1199 created by configure (done by Jay Painter).
1201 * glib_pre2.h: the g_assert*() and g_return_*_fail() macros
1202 are wrapped by G_STMT_START and G_STMT_END now, to avoid conflicts
1203 when used within if (...) g_macro(); else ... conditionals.
1205 Tue Dec 17 13:14:07 1996 Peter Mattis <pmattis@charnley.HIP.Berkeley.EDU>
1207 * glib.h: Changed 'g_return_if_fail' and 'g_return_val_if_fail' to
1208 not call 'g_string' but to simply stringify the
1209 expression. Calling 'g_string' causes the expression to be
1210 expanded which is undesired.
