1 Mon Sep 21 02:22:12 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
3 * NEWS file update for upcoming release of GLib + GModule
4 version 1.1.3, binary age 0, interface age 0. (GModule uses
5 the same version numbers as GLib.)
7 * glib.h: swap the inclusion of of float.h and limits.h to work
8 around a egcs 1.1 oddity on Solaris 2.5.1 (fix provided by
9 Per Abrahamsen <abraham@dina.kvl.dk>).
12 * gscanner.c: renamed the GValue union to GTokenValue, this should
13 not affect source compatibility in most cases.
15 * ghash.c: added some g_return_if_fail() statements. make
16 g_hash_table_lookup_node() an inline function so we save an extra
17 function invokation on lookups.
19 Sun Sep 20 18:21:46 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
21 * ltconfig.sh: Patch to libtool-1.2b to make --disable-static
24 Sun Sep 20 02:09:44 1998 Josh MacDonald <jmacd@axis.hip.berkeley.edu>
26 * glib.h: New function g_hash_table_foreach_remove is similar to
27 g_hash_table_foreach, but the callback's return value indicates
28 whether to remove the element (if TRUE) or not (if FALSE).
29 Returns the number of elements deleted.
31 Fri Sep 18 11:31:50 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
34 * gstrfuncs.c: added g_memdup implementation
36 Fri Sep 18 18:46:14 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
39 * gdataset.c: make the datalists a safe type (not using a generic
40 gpointer) by expecting a GData* argument in the g_datalist functions.
41 provide g_dataset_foreach() and g_datalist_foreach() functions that
42 allow a GDataForeachFunc function to walk the data lists.
43 (g_dataset_destroy_internal): made this function truely reentrant (i.e.
44 can be called from within destroy notifiers as well).
45 the *_foreach functions are _not_ reentrant (unless all the other
46 dataset and datalist functions).
48 Fri Sep 18 03:41:20 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
50 * gtree.c (g_tree_new): check for key_compare_func != NULL (reported
53 Thu Sep 17 18:55:46 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
55 * config.h.in: removed from repository
59 * mkinstalldirs: updated to latest automake version
61 Thu Sep 17 06:36:25 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
64 * gdataset.c: implemented g_datalist_* along the lines of g_dataset,
65 but operates on an opaque gpointer *datalist; pointer, e.g. for the
66 implementation of GtkObject named data.
67 we cache a certain portion of the already freed data entries now, to
68 gain a slight performance improve with data reallocation.
70 Tue Sep 15 14:57:30 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
72 * Makefile.am glib-config.in l*: Update to libtool-1.2b,
73 change library versioning scheme to drop LT_RELEASE
74 from the -l line, while keeping it in the soname.
76 Fri Sep 11 02:11:46 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
78 * glib.h: explicitely include the prototypes for inline functions
79 to cure gcc warnings for -Wmissing-prototypes.
81 Wed Sep 9 02:52:04 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
83 * configure.in: added -posix check for NeXTStep
85 Tue Sep 8 05:04:06 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
87 * glib.h: abandon the use of ATEXIT(), we keep the fallback
88 macros for backwards compatibility. people ought to use g_atexit().
90 * gutils.c (g_atexit): new function to take over the implementation
91 of ATEXIT. this function is guarranteed to succeed, similar to
94 Mon Sep 7 20:07:38 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
96 * configure.in: comment the -std1 check and save LIBS properly
98 Mon Sep 7 07:53:21 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
100 * configure.in: check for all three inline keywords individually.
102 * glib.h: inlining hassle. for compilers that don't allow the `inline'
103 keyword, mostly because of strict ANSI C compliance or dumbness, we try
104 to fall back to either `__inline__' or `__inline'.
105 we define G_CAN_INLINE, if the compiler seems to be actually *capable*
106 to do function inlining, in which case inline function bodys do make
107 sense. we also define G_INLINE_FUNC to properly export the function
108 prototypes if no inlinig can be performed. we special case most of the
109 stuff, so inline functions can have a normal implementation by defining
110 G_INLINE_FUNC to extern and G_CAN_INLINE to 1.
112 * ltconfig: (compiler PIC flag test): special case linux for non
113 aout systems to honour lcc's position independant code (cases
114 "linux*aout)" and "linux*)" got added). (this needs to go into
115 libtool which does an advanced test, checking for __LCC__).
117 * autogen.sh: take $CC=lcc into account by invoking automake with
118 --include-deps so lcc isn't scared by gcc's auto-dependancy
119 generation code. care about $ACLOCAL_FLAGS. optionally feature
122 * minor fixups in other places to cure some of lcc's warnings.
124 Sun Sep 6 19:08:53 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
126 * configure.in: added -std1 check for ANSI compliance (from gtk)
128 Sun Sep 6 12:31:50 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
130 * glib.h: provide proper ATEXIT behavior on NeXTStep by !atexit
132 Sat Sep 5 18:03:36 1998 Tom Tromey <tromey@cygnus.com>
134 * gutils.c (GLIB_INLINE): Define.
135 * glib.h (GLIB_INLINE): New define.
136 (g_bit_nth_msf): Use it. Also, add prototype.
137 (g_bit_storage): Likewise.
138 (g_bit_storage): Likewise.
140 Sat Sep 5 04:40:02 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
143 (g_chunk_new0): use g_mem_chunk_alloc0() to allocate the memchunk,
144 so the correct size of the memchunk is allocated with 0's and not
145 a memory portion of the size of the desired type.
147 * gmem.c: new function g_mem_chunk_alloc0() which will initialize
148 a memory area allocated with g_mem_chunk_alloc() with 0's.
150 Wed Sep 2 19:13:28 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
152 * garray.c glib.h (g_array_[ap/pre]pend_vals): make
155 Wed Aug 26 06:32:40 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
158 * gstrfuncs.c: new function g_strnfill() to return a new string
159 of specified length, filled with a specific character.
161 Tue Sep 1 23:46:31 1998 Josh MacDonald <jmacd@axis.hip.berkeley.edu>
163 * testglib.c (main): Update the array tests. Reduce the number of
164 iterations for the prepend test from 10000 to 100 since it is
165 O(n^2) and was taking longer than I would like to wait.
167 * garray.c: I've worked on the GArray interface, mostly. It was
168 seriously broken before and I hate to do it, but this is going to
169 break some code. It is important to do this now, because more and
170 more people are starting to use glib and the interface was both
171 broken and inconsistent. First, rename the _truncate functions of
172 both the GArray and GPtrArray classes to _set_size, since this
173 function can also be used to extend the arrays. GArray now
174 accepts two more initialization arguments: clear and element_size.
175 Instead of providing the type to each access function, the array
176 now stores the element size. Clear, if set, causes the library to
177 zero element's memory as the array expands. The major broken-ness
178 here was that array->len was in bytes, not elements. Now, since
179 the array knows its element size, array->len is correct and I have
180 removed the g_array_length macro. The only macro which now
181 accepts the type as an argument is g_array_index, which casts the
182 element to the right type--this interface does not change. The
183 append and prepend functions simply need the types removed.
184 g_ptr_array_remove_index now returns the removed element.
186 * gprimes.c (g_spaced_primes_closest): Move this function out of
187 ghash.c and rename it from g_hash_closest_prime. Fix the primes
188 so that they are actually prime (they weren't all -- isn't that
191 Mon Aug 24 02:08:56 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
196 (g_vsprintf): removed this function which was not publically
197 exported in glib.h. to export it, it should have been named
198 differently in the first place, since its semantics differ from
199 vsprintf(). apart from that, it was a possible cause for
200 problems since it worked on a previously allocated memory area and
201 was used in a lot places of glib. exporting it would have been a
202 guararant for problems with threaded programs.
203 (g_printf_string_upper_bound): exported this function to return
204 a string size, guarranteed to be big enough to hold the fully
205 expanded format+args string. added 'q', 'L' and 'll' flag handling.
206 in fact, the newly allocated area is in most cases much bigger than
208 (g_strdup_vprintf()): new function returning a newly allocated string
209 containing the contents of *format and associated args (size is
210 calculated with g_printf_string_upper_bound()).
211 (g_strdup_printf): new function which wraps g_strdup_vprintf().
213 * configure.in: check for va_copy() or __va_copy() alternatively.
214 check whether va_lists can be copyied by value.
216 * glib.h: provide a definition for G_VA_COPY.
222 pass va_lists by value, not by reference, since this causes problems
223 on platforms that implement va_list as as arrays. internaly, use
224 G_VA_COPY (new_arg, org_arg); va_end (new_arg); to produce a second
225 va_list variable, if multiple passes are required. changed all
230 renamed g_debug() to g_on_error_query(), cleaned up a bit.
231 renamed g_stack_trace() to g_on_error_stack_trace() since both
232 functions cluttered different namespaces.
233 there is an appropriate comment in glib.h now that explains the
234 unix and gdb specific dependencies of both functions.
235 removed g_attach_process().
236 g_on_error_stack_trace() should probably be handled with caution,
237 i've seem several different linux versions (2.0.x) become unstable
238 after invokation of this function.
240 1998-08-18: Elliot Lee <sopwith@redhat.com>
242 . In gmem.c, add the ability to exclude memory chunks from the
243 memory profiling information.
245 Tue Aug 18 18:23:09 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
248 * gstrfuncs.c: added g_strndup
250 Tue Aug 18 04:40:17 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
253 * gmessages.c: new function g_log_set_always_fatal() to set an
254 additional fatal_mask for log levels that are considered to be fatal
255 globally (required by gtk). since this mask is not domain-associated,
256 it is restricted to the log levels, introduced by glib itself.
260 * gtree.c (g_tree_node_check):
261 don't use g_print() calls for informational/debugging output,
262 but log all this stuff through g_log() with G_LOG_LEVEL_INFO.
263 libraries shouldn't use printf(), g_print() or g_printerr() at all.
265 Tue Aug 18 02:46:44 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
268 * glib.h (__STRICT_ANSI__): if __STRICT_ANSI__ is defined, make
269 `inline' a noop, since strict ANSI rules don't permit `inline'.
271 Mon Aug 17 15:21:42 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
273 * grel.c: made private functions static.
275 Sun Aug 16 23:23:46 CDT 1998 Shawn T. Amundson <amundson@gtk.org>
277 * gmodule/Makefile.am: added gmodule-dl.c and gmodule-dld.c to
279 * glib.spec: version = 1.1.3
281 Mon Aug 17 01:46:14 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
283 * glib.m4: feature an extra MODULES parameter, so glib-config can
284 be invoked with the "gmodule" argument.
286 * glib.h: changed the log level to G_LOG_LEVEL_CRITICAL for all
287 g_return*_if_fail statements, and made them issue a message
288 like "assertion `%s' failed".
290 * gmessages.c (g_logv): ugh, don't pass log_domain as NULL to
293 Sun Aug 16 20:28:27 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
295 * version bump to 1.1.3, binary age 0, interface age 0.
297 * glib.h: be nice to platforms that don't have gint64 and don't
298 issue #warning on every compilation. since glib doesn't require
299 gint64 itself, packages that need gint64 should test for this
303 * gutils.c: added a new function g_vsnprintf().
305 Sun Aug 16 Elliot Lee
307 glib.h: #error out if we don't recognize the SIZEOF_VOID_P
308 #warning if no gint64
310 Fri Aug 14 16:41:53 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
312 * glib.h: added static inline functions for bit mask tests:
313 g_bit_nth_lsf, g_bit_nth_msf and g_bit_storage.
315 Fri Aug 13 14:23:37 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
319 revised the message handling system, which is now based on a new
320 mechanism g_log*. most of the assertment macros got adapted to
321 feature the new g_log() call with an additional specification of
322 the log level in a preprocessor macro G_LOG_DOMAIN. if G_LOG_DOMAIN
323 is undefined upon the includion of glib.h, it'll be defined with a
324 value of (NULL) and thus preserves the original bahaviour for
325 warning and error messages. the message handler setting functions
326 for g_warning, g_error and g_message are only provided for backwards
327 compatibility and might get removed somewhen.
329 * Makefile.am: feature the G_LOG_DOMAIN macro to set the log domain
330 to "GLib" upon compilation. we currently have to add this definition
331 to the DEFS variable.
332 * testglib.c: we need an ugly #undef G_LOG_DOMAIN at the start
333 of this file currently, since automake doesn't support per target
336 * glib.h: changed some gints to gbooleans, made a few const corrections,
337 removed some superfluous G_STMT_START{}G_STMT_END wrappers, added some
338 in other required places.
342 (g_node_insert_before):
344 (g_node_append_data):
345 (g_node_prepend_data):
346 (g_node_insert_data_before):
347 (g_node_insert_data):
349 return (node), so these macros/functions can be usefully chained with
352 Mon Aug 10 17:56:11 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
354 * glib.h: it's GTime now, and it's back!
356 Mon Aug 10 02:17:19 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
358 * Makefile.am: minor hack to cause SUBDIRS (gmodule) to be build
359 last. we do this by making all-recursive-am depend on all-am.
361 Sun Aug 9 15:56:11 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
363 * configure.in: added GModule checks. generate files in gmodule/.
364 * glib-config.in: support library specifications `glib' and `gmodule'.
365 * Makefile.am: feature the gmodule/ subdir.
367 Wed Aug 5 10:04:29 PDT 1998 Shawn T. Amundson <amundson@gtk.org>
369 * Released GLib 1.1.2
371 Wed Aug 05 01:15:36 1998 George Lebl <jirka@5z.com>
373 * testglib.c: fix 64-bitness in g_prints, sizeof doesn't
374 seem to return int so I cast it for printing, probably
377 Tue Aug 4 19:54:06 PDT 1998 Shawn T. Amundson <amundson@gkt.org>
379 * Released GLib 1.1.1
381 Tue Aug 4 15:17:54 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
383 * configure.in: version bump to 1.1.1, binary age 1, interface age 0.
386 * INSTALL: updates and fixes.
387 * COPYING: include the GNU LGPL, rather than shipping an empty file.
388 * AUTHORS: listed original authors here, and added people who made
389 significant improvements to glib.
392 * gutils.c: implement g_get_current_dir() which returns a newly
393 allocated string, instead of a g_getcwd() variant that operates
395 export glib_interface_age and glib_binary_age.
396 as a convenience, macro definitions have been added for
397 g_node_insert_data, g_node_insert_data_before, g_node_append_data and
400 * testglib.c: minor cleanups, print current dir.
402 Mon Aug 3 16:02:26 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
405 * gnode.c: change order of gpointer data; field in struct _GNode to
406 be partly binary compatible with GList and GSList.
408 1998-08-03 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
410 * garray.c (g_ptr_array_remove_index): bugfix: index check for
411 array has been wrong.
413 Fri Jul 31 22:17:05 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
415 * testglib.c (g_node_test): added a GNode test.
417 Fri Jul 31 09:08:16 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
419 * Makefile.am: compile gnode.c.
422 * gnode.c: added implementation of n-way trees.
424 * gtree.c (g_tree_traverse): added a warning to the switch() statement
425 which says that G_LEVEL_ORDER is not implemented.
427 Mon Jul 27 00:17:30 CDT 1998 Shawn T. Amundson <amundson@gtk.org>
429 * Released GLib 1.1.0
431 Mon Jul 27 01:02:27 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
433 * glib.h: #if 0'ed out the GTime definition, until it is definitively
434 needed. #if 0'ed out the g_getcwd() version, because it is the wrong
437 Sat Jul 25 16:09:00 1998 Mark Crichton <crichton@expert.cc.purdue.edu>
439 * glib.h: gtime changed to g_time. gtime is used in
440 /usr/include/time.h in NetBSD, causing multiple headaches.
441 If this isn't the right way of fixing it.... ;)
443 Thu Jul 23 00:29:14 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
446 * gscanner.c: new functions to make a scanner scope sensitive wrt
448 g_scanner_scope_foreach_symbol, g_scanner_scope_lookup_symbol,
449 g_scanner_scope_remove_symbol, g_scanner_scope_add_symbol and
451 g_scanner_add_symbol, g_scanner_remove_symbol and
452 g_scanner_foreach_symbol are now aliases for scope 0.
454 Mon Jul 20 23:05:34 1998 George Lebl <jirka@5z.com>
456 * glib.h: typo fixed for alphas for gint64
458 Tue Jul 14 09:05:18 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
461 * gutils.c: new fuction g_dirname() which returns a newlly
464 Fri Jul 10 06:33:43 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
467 * gutils.h: added a bunch of utility/wrapper functions:
468 g_basename(), g_getcwd(), g_get_user_name(), g_get_real_name(),
469 g_get_home_dir(), g_get_tmp_dir(), g_get_prgname() and g_set_prgname().
471 * gutils.c: removed all g_str* functions.
472 * gstrfuncs.c: moved the bunch g_str* functions from gutils.c in this
473 place. this file shall never include <unistd.h> to avoid clashes for
474 some of the g_str* functions on some OSes.
476 Fri Jul 10 00:29:03 EEST 1998 Lauri Alanko <nether@gimp.org>
479 * ghash.c: Renamed g_hash_table_lookup_full to
480 g_hash_table_lookup_extended to conform with naming conventions.
482 Tue Jul 7 03:18:58 EEST 1998 Lauri Alanko <nether@gimp.org>
485 * ghash.c: Generic cleanup, added a function:
486 (g_hash_table_lookup_full): Return whether the lookup succeeded,
487 and also retrieve the key and value. This allows one to
488 distinguish between failed lookup and finding a NULL, and also
489 allows one to free a key in the hash.
491 Mon Jul 6 10:12:05 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
493 * ltconfig: fix for properly detecting shared lib support on
494 SunPro cc (taken from libtool 1.2.a)
496 Sat Jul 4 13:38:52 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
498 * glib.h: added g_array_length
500 Tue Jun 30 11:58:25 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
502 * gscanner.c (g_scanner_unexp_token): take symbol_2_token into
503 account. react on valid/invalid string pairs.
505 Sat Jun 27 21:55:46 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
507 * glib.m4: ftp.glib.org -> ftp.gtk.org, since glib.org isn't
510 Fri Jun 19 03:11:02 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
512 * gdataset.c: removed g_dataset_try_key, g_dataset_force_id and
513 g_dataset_retrive_key in favour of GQuarks.
514 a GQuark is an numeric id wich is associated with a certain string.
515 (g_quark_try_string): try to get the quark associated with this string,
516 if the lookup failed return 0.
517 (g_quark_from_string): get the associated quark for a string, if there
518 isn't currently a GQuark associated with this string, then allocate a
519 new quark and return that.
520 (g_quark_from_static_string): like the above function, but the string
521 isn't strdup()ed to save memory.
522 (g_quark_to_string): get the string that is associated with a certain
525 * gdataset.c (g_dataset_id_set_data_full): invoke the destroy function
526 _after_ the new data has been setup.
528 Thu Jun 18 02:35:21 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@gtk.org>
530 * glib.h: Changed messages for g_return_[val]_if_fail to
531 be somewhat more clear: assertion "blah" failed.
533 1998-06-18 Federico Mena Quintero <federico@nuclecu.unam.mx>
535 * testglib.c (main): Use GINT_TO_POINTER casts to remove compiler
538 * grel.c: #include <string.h>
540 Fri Jun 12 15:39:06 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
542 * glib.h (GScanner): cleanups of the structure fields (binary
545 Fri Jun 12 00:39:28 1998 Josh MacDonald <jmacd@icw.EECS.Berkeley.EDU>
547 * glib.h: add new hash and equal functions g_int_*. complement
548 g_direct_hash with g_direct_equal.
550 * grel.c: new file, GRelations implement tuples of N-N mappings.
551 A comment in glib.h briefly describes the interface.
553 * ghash.c: new function, g_hash_table_size
555 * glib.h: new typedefs, gsize, gssize, gtime.
557 * garray.c: new functions implementing a simplified GArray. This
558 GPtrArray is an array of gpointers and has functions to add and
559 remove elements, much like java.lang.Vector.
561 * garray.c: new functions for the single-byte special case of
562 GArray. The functions g_byte_array* operate on arrays of bytes.

577 1998-06-10 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
579 * acinclude.m4: New file. Contains `libtool.m4' from libtool-1.2,
580 the version from which glib's libtool forked. Needed for people
581 who use post-1.2 alphas of libtool.
582 * configure.in (enable_mem_check, enable_mem_profile): Replace
583 `echo -n' with AC_MSG_CHECKING.

603 gtk-jbuhler-980516-0 (Jeremy Buhler <jbuhler@cs.washington.edu>) ]
605 * glib.h ghash.c gstring.c gdataset.c gutils.c:
606 - Added new typedef g_const_pointer; expunged all incorrect
607 uses of 'const gpointer'.
608 - Fixed up warnings that that created,
609 - Changed GHashFunc and GCompareFunc to take g_const_pointer
610 arguments. (Necessary, but will cause warnings in existing
612 - Added other new const in harmless positions.
614 Mon Jun 8 01:06:47 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
616 * glib.h: added enum-helper macros for code generation.

652 (g_chunk_free): new convenience macro to be consistent with g_chunk_new.
654 Tue, 19 May 1998 09:00:02 +0200 §Paolo Molaro <lupus@debian.org>
656 * gcompletion.c: generic functions for com<TAB>pletion...

668 * gscanner.c (g_scanner_unexp_token): removed spurious va_end(args)
669 that for some reason didn't produce a compiler wrning on my machine
670 (is va_end undefined for i386?).
672 Fri May 15 12:32:08 1998 rodo <doulik@karlin.mff.cuni.cz>

683 (g_scanner_foreach_symbol): new function to iterate over the symbol
684 table (GScanner does value-wrapping).
686 Thu May 14 04:14:12 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
688 * glib.h: typedef gint gboolean;
689 this is needed to provide portability with big-endian platforms (e.g.
690 try sizeof(bool) for c++ on big-endians - it's 4).
691 this is also needed to maintain some_union.d_gint==some_union.d_gboolean.
692 plus, gint to gboolean casts and vice versa need to be possible without
695 Tue May 12 19:22:58 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@gtk.org>
697 * glib/glib.h: Added macros G[U]INT_TO_POINTER() and
698 GPOINTER_TO_[U]INT for storing small integers integers
701 * glib/testglib.c: Print sizeof() results
702 as g_print("%ld", (glong)sizeof(foo)), to deal with
703 size_t being long on Alpha's.
705 Tue May 12 16:54:15 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@gtk.org>
706 (James A <jamesa@demon.net> : gtk-jamesa-980511-4.patch)
708 * glib.h gstring.c gmessages.c: Added some missing
711 * gutils.c (g_strsignal.c): Added missing return statements.
713 Mon May 11 21:11:54 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@gtk.org>
715 * gutils.c gmessages.c: Moved g_error, g_warning, g_message and
716 g_print from gutils.c to new file gmessages.c, to avoid having to
717 include <unistd.h> in gutils.c which was causing problems for the
718 g_strsignal implementation on FreeBSD boxes.
720 Mon May 11 09:53:43 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
722 * configure.in: preserve automake CFLAGS.
724 * Makefile.am: fully rename the created library to libglib-1.1.la.
725 this means we need to change certain portions of the Makefile.am on
726 major/minor version bumps.
728 * ltmain.sh: the -release option is not required anymore.
730 * glib.h: provide G_GNUC_FUNCTION and G_GNUC_PRETTY_FUNCTION to
731 avoid conditionals. unconditionally define NULL, TRUE, FALSE, MAX,
732 MIN, ABS and CLAMP, these macros might be screwed from other headers.
734 Mon May 11 01:44:10 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
736 * gdataset.c: new file, gdatasets implement the object data
737 mechanism from GtkObject. a generic data pointer is associated with
738 a certain location and a key id.
740 Sat May 9 20:08:12 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@gtk.org>
742 * glib/gmem.c: Experimentally restore GMemChunk
743 to its primeval state - where mem areas are
744 freed incrementally instead of searching the tree
745 every time a mem area is completely empty. Also,
746 always keep one mem chunk around. (Reduced calls
747 to malloc() a lot, but doesn't really improve
748 performance significiantly)
750 Thu May 7 08:17:28 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
752 * glib.h (G_GNUC_PRINTF):
753 (G_GNUC_SCANF): macros to facilitate the printf/scanf format argument

757 (g_string_down): new function for tolower(3) conversion.
758 (g_string_up): new function for toupper(3) conversion.
760 * gutils.c: const corrections.
761 (g_strdown): g_string_down() counterpart.

764 * gscanner.c (g_scanner_unexp_token):
766 (g_scanner_warn): new functions to let a scanner put out warnings
767 or errors, especially to react on unexpected tokens.

771 certain data pointer.
772 (g_slist_position): find out about about the position of a
776 (g_list_index): find out about about the position of a
777 certain data pointer.
779 Thu May 7 05:14:19 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
781 * ltmain.sh: added a new commandline flag -postfix similar to -release,
782 but will immediately change the library name.
784 * Makefile.am: specify -postfix and -version-info
786 * configure.in: version bump to 1.1.0. added GLIB_INTERFACE_AGE and
787 GLIB_BINARY_AGE. calculate LT_* variables for libtool.
789 Fri May 1 16:36:08 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@gtk.org>
791 * gutils.c: (g_strcasecmp). Check for isupper before
792 taking tolower, and account for macroized tolower.
794 * gutils.c (g_error): Check for recursion.
796 1998-04-27 Elliot Lee <sopwith@cuc.ml.org>
798 * glist.c (g_list_position): New function to find the position of
799 a link in a list - should be the inverse of g_list_nth(), but
800 haven't tested it so poof.
802 Thu Apr 30 21:41:30 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@gtk.org>
804 * gstring.c : Check arguments more carefully,
805 (gtk-draco-980423-1.patch; ramsey@rhrk.uni-kl.de)
807 Tue Apr 7 19:36:48 1998 Owen Taylor <owt1@cornell.edu>
809 * gutils.c (g_direct_compare): Removed, because that's what
810 a NULL comparison function means. And it wasn't 64 bit safe.
812 Mon Apr 6 18:43:25 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
814 * gscanner.c (g_scanner_get_token_ll): fixed a bug that caused floats
815 of the format ".xxx" to be parsed as "xxx".
817 Fri Apr 3 20:36:35 1998 Owen Taylor <owt1@cornell.edu>
819 * gutils.c (g_parse_debug_string): Make debug string
820 parsine case-insensitive
822 Fri Apr 3 17:03:18 PST 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
824 * gstring.c: corrected possible overrun when inserting into
825 GStrings (thanks Elrond)
827 Fri Apr 3 18:05:45 1998 Owen Taylor <owt1@cornell.edu>
829 * testglib.c: Removed literal german from strings
830 to appease SGI compiler.
832 Thu Mar 26 20:47:21 1998 Owen Taylor <owt1@cornell.edu>
834 * configure.in glib glibconfig.h.in: Add test for atexit/on_exit -
835 use on_exit if atexit not found in definition of ATEXIT.
837 Wed Mar 25 15:23:37 1998 Owen Taylor <owt1@cornell.edu>
839 * Makefile.am: Switched glibconfig.h rule from HEADERS
840 to DATA, so that it is not added to DISTFILES
842 Wed Mar 18 22:27:08 PST 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
844 * garray.c: g_rarray_truncate length done correctly
846 Sun Mar 15 07:13:34 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gimp.org>
848 * gutils.c: changed *_handler variables to be named glib_*_handler,
849 so you can easily access them from gdb.
851 Sat Mar 14 17:47:43 1998 Owen Taylor <owt1@cornell.edu>
853 * Makefile.am: Don't refer to current directory as $(top_builddir)
854 to avoid confusing non-gmakes
856 Sat Mar 14 01:37:35 1998 Owen Taylor <owt1@cornell.edu>
858 * Makefile.am (configincludedir): Moved glibconfig.h to

867 Mon Mar 9 15:02:21 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gimp.org>
869 * glib.h: changed *_length functions to return guint.
870 changed *_nth functions to take guint as argument.
872 * glist.c: adapted g_list_length and g_list_length.
874 * gslist.c: adapted g_slist_length and g_slist_length.
876 Mon Mar 2 17:51:18 1998 Owen Taylor <owt1@cornell.edu>

881 * testglib.c: Remove trailing ; after functions
883 Sun Mar 1 19:04:40 1998 Owen Taylor <owt1@cornell.edu>
885 * glib.h gstring.c: Added g_string_insert[_c]()
886 and g_string_erase().
888 From: Stefan Wille <1wille@vsys1.informatik.uni-hamburg.de>
890 Mon Feb 16 23:05:06 1998 Owen Taylor <owt1@cornell.edu>
892 * glist.c (g_list_insert_sorted): Changed function

928 Tue Jan 27 09:46:57 PST 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
930 * gstring.c: g_string_prepend and g_string_prepend_c had
931 interchanged src and dest parameters for g_memmove. Fixed.
933 Tue Jan 27 01:38:52 PST 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
935 * gslist.c: fixed a really, really lame error. g_slist_insert
936 didn't hook the data in! Reworked the routine to reflect the
937 functionality of g_list
939 Wed Jan 21 01:13:25 1998 Tim Janik <timj@psynet.net>

957 * gutils.c (g_strerror): changed message for EAGAIN from
958 "no more processes" to "try again" since EAGAIN is used with
959 functions else than fork().
961 * gscanner.c (g_scanner_get_token_ll): use strtol() instead of
962 strtoul() to avoid conflicts with solaris.
964 * merged the glib portions from Jan 2 to Jan 7 out of gtk+/ChangeLog
967 Wed Jan 7 02:14:30 PST 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>

989 Tue Dec 23 02:49:51 1997 Tim Janik <timj@psynet.net>
991 * gscanner.c: new file for GScanner: Flexible lexical scanner for

995 terminated parameter list.
996 (g_strtod): new function to perform best string to double conversion
997 with or without consideration of the current locale.
999 Mon Dec 15 19:33:58 1997 Tim Janik <timj@psynet.net>
1001 * glist.c: minor optimizations:
1002 (g_list_append): `if' optimized for common code path, commented out
1003 unneccessary `assert', saved one variable assignment.
1004 (g_list_prepend): saved two (conditioned) variable assignment.
1005 (g_list_insert): saved one (conditioned) variable assignment,
1006 saved one variable assignment.
1007 (g_list_remove): `if' optimized for common code path, saved two
1008 variable assignments by using `g_list_free_1' (which is even
1009 faster) instead of `g_list_free'.
1010 (g_list_reverse): saved allocation of one variable, saved one
1011 variable assignment.
1013 Wed Dec 10 23:27:20 1997 Tim Janik <timj@psynet.net>
1017 * glib.h: this file now gets concatenated by makeglib_h from
1018 glib_pre1.h and glib_pre2.h to merge in glibconfig.h wich got
1019 created by configure (done by Jay Painter).
1021 * glib_pre2.h: the g_assert*() and g_return_*_fail() macros
1022 are wrapped by G_STMT_START and G_STMT_END now, to avoid conflicts
1023 when used within if (...) g_macro(); else ... conditionals.
1025 Tue Dec 17 13:14:07 1996 Peter Mattis <pmattis@charnley.HIP.Berkeley.EDU>
1027 * glib.h: Changed 'g_return_if_fail' and 'g_return_val_if_fail' to
1028 not call 'g_string' but to simply stringify the
1029 expression. Calling 'g_string' causes the expression to be
1030 expanded which is undesired.
1032 Sun Dec 1 01:30:48 1996 Peter Mattis <pmattis@charnley.HIP.Berkeley.EDU>
