1 Wed Oct 21 17:03:05 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
4 * gstrfuncs.c: API cleanups of the new g_str* functions for consistency
5 with the existing naming scheme for g_str* functions. grouped the g_str*
6 functions that will return a newly allocated string seperatedly. all of
7 the in_place arguments were skipped, the caller is supposed to pass a
8 g_strdup()ed string if he wants to retrive a new copy. indentation and
9 coding style fixups. added some g_return_if_fail() statements.
10 string array functions are prefixed with g_str_array_.
11 (g_strdelimit): return the modified string like all other g_str*
12 functions, that operate in place.
13 (g_strchug): renamed from g_str_chug(), removed in_place argument.
14 (g_strchomp): renamed from g_str_chomp(), removed in_place argument.
15 (g_strstrip): renamed from g_str_strip(), removed in_place argument.
16 (g_str_array_join): renamed from g_strconcatv(), since it actually
17 operates on a string array and has totaly different semantics from
18 g_strconcat(). check for separator != NULL, don't segfault if the first
19 string is NULL. removed the `const' from the string array that's passed,
20 so users can operate on gchar** string arrays.
21 (g_str_array_split): renamed from g_str_split() because we actually
22 produce a string array. reimplemented this function for efficiency.
23 removed macro aliases g_str_joinv and g_str_join.
25 1998-10-20 Elliot Lee <sopwith@redhat.com>
27 * glib.h, gstrfuncs.c: Move string join/split/free routines from
28 libgnome/gnome-string, rename, and add g_str_chug.
30 1998-10-20 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
32 * configure.in: made the check for needed _ in module's func-names
33 work on solaris. (G_MODULE_NEED_USCORE must be set outside
34 AC_CACHE_VAL, dlopen(0,0) refused to work on solaris).
36 Tue Oct 20 03:32:58 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
39 * acconfig.h: added test for endianness
41 * glib.h: #define endian macros for system and some conversions
44 Thu Oct 8 06:47:27 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
47 * gdataset.c: removed functions g_dataset_id_set_destroy and
48 g_datalist_id_set_destroy and macros g_dataset_set_destroy and
49 g_datalist_set_destroy.
50 added new functions g_dataset_id_remove_no_notify and
51 g_datalist_id_remove_no_notify plus associated macros
52 g_dataset_remove_no_notify and g_datalist_remove_no_notify, which
53 will remove a certain data portion without invokation of its destroy
54 notifier, this should only be used in very controled circumstances.
56 Wed Oct 7 05:31:24 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
59 removed the #pragma } statement after extern "C" {. use
60 (c-set-offset 'inextern-lang 0) to fixup emacs cc-mode indentation.
63 * ghook.c: API and code cleanups. changed the G_HOOK_ACTIVE and
64 G_HOOK_IN_CALL enum vals to G_HOOK_FLAG_ACTIVE and G_HOOK_FLAG_IN_CALL.
65 changed the G_HOOK_IS_ACTIVE() and G_HOOK_IS_IN_CALL() macros to
66 G_HOOK_ACTIVE() and G_HOOK_IN_CALL().
67 fixed the g_hook_find* functions, so they iterate over non-active
70 (g_hook_next_valid): added an extra argument gboolean may_be_in_call,
71 which indicates whether G_HOOK_IN_CALL() hooks are considered valid
72 or not. these two functions are meant as iterators for the hook list
73 invocation, so they need to a) provide functionality to implement
74 may_recurse bahaviour and b) only walk active hooks.
76 Tue Oct 6 14:29:47 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
78 * gmem.c (g_malloc0): fixed memory offsett when ENABLE_MEM_CHECK is
79 defined and ENABLE_MEM_PROFILE is not (patch from Martin Pool
80 <mbp@wistful.humbug.org.au>).
82 Sat Oct 3 01:18:10 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
88 (g_hook_list_marshal): properly handle the first valid hook to call,
89 it maybe IN_CALL already.
90 (g_hook_list_marshal): minor name change.
92 Fri Oct 2 23:21:21 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
95 * ghook.c: renamed GHook.id to GHook.hook_id so we don't get troubles
96 with ObjC which reserves "id" as a keyword (Raja R Harinath
97 <harinath@cs.umn.edu>).
99 Wed Sep 30 10:53:03 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
101 * Makefile.am: added ghook.c.
104 * ghook.c: generic callback maintenance functions.
106 * glib.h: define G_GNUC_UNUSED.
108 Fri Sep 25 00:04:37 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
110 * configure.in: version bump to 1.1.4, binary age 0, interface age 0.
112 * glib.h (struct _GScanner): dumped peeked_char and text_len in favour
113 of *text_end and *buffer for buffered read()s.
115 * gscanner.c: changed peeking and retrival of next character so we
116 have buffered reads. fixed minor bug with number parsing error
117 reporting. made some static!!! variables local ones (why did we use
118 static temporary variables in the lowlevel tokenization code anyways?).
120 Mon Sep 21 23:23:10 CDT 1998 Shawn T. Amundson <amundson@gtk.org>
122 * Released GLib 1.1.3
124 Mon Sep 21 07:43:13 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
126 * glib.h: added g_renew() which works as g_new() for g_realloc().
128 Mon Sep 21 02:22:12 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
130 * NEWS file update for upcoming release of GLib + GModule
131 version 1.1.3, binary age 0, interface age 0. (GModule uses
132 the same version numbers as GLib.)
134 * glib.h: swap the inclusion of of float.h and limits.h to work
135 around a egcs 1.1 oddity on Solaris 2.5.1 (fix provided by
136 Per Abrahamsen <abraham@dina.kvl.dk>).
139 * gscanner.c: renamed the GValue union to GTokenValue, this should
140 not affect source compatibility in most cases.
142 * ghash.c: added some g_return_if_fail() statements. make
143 g_hash_table_lookup_node() an inline function so we save an extra
144 function invokation on lookups.
146 Sun Sep 20 18:21:46 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
148 * ltconfig.sh: Patch to libtool-1.2b to make --disable-static
151 Sun Sep 20 02:09:44 1998 Josh MacDonald <jmacd@axis.hip.berkeley.edu>
153 * glib.h: New function g_hash_table_foreach_remove is similar to
154 g_hash_table_foreach, but the callback's return value indicates
155 whether to remove the element (if TRUE) or not (if FALSE).
156 Returns the number of elements deleted.
158 Fri Sep 18 11:31:50 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
161 * gstrfuncs.c: added g_memdup implementation
163 Fri Sep 18 18:46:14 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
166 * gdataset.c: make the datalists a safe type (not using a generic
167 gpointer) by expecting a GData* argument in the g_datalist functions.
168 provide g_dataset_foreach() and g_datalist_foreach() functions that
169 allow a GDataForeachFunc function to walk the data lists.
170 (g_dataset_destroy_internal): made this function truely reentrant (i.e.
171 can be called from within destroy notifiers as well).
172 the *_foreach functions are _not_ reentrant (unless all the other
173 dataset and datalist functions).
175 Fri Sep 18 03:41:20 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
177 * gtree.c (g_tree_new): check for key_compare_func != NULL (reported
180 Thu Sep 17 18:55:46 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
182 * config.h.in: removed from repository
186 * mkinstalldirs: updated to latest automake version
188 Thu Sep 17 06:36:25 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
191 * gdataset.c: implemented g_datalist_* along the lines of g_dataset,
192 but operates on an opaque gpointer *datalist; pointer, e.g. for the
193 implementation of GtkObject named data.
194 we cache a certain portion of the already freed data entries now, to
195 gain a slight performance improve with data reallocation.
197 Tue Sep 15 14:57:30 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
199 * Makefile.am glib-config.in l*: Update to libtool-1.2b,
200 change library versioning scheme to drop LT_RELEASE
201 from the -l line, while keeping it in the soname.
203 Fri Sep 11 02:11:46 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
205 * glib.h: explicitely include the prototypes for inline functions
206 to cure gcc warnings for -Wmissing-prototypes.
208 Wed Sep 9 02:52:04 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
210 * configure.in: added -posix check for NeXTStep
212 Tue Sep 8 05:04:06 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
214 * glib.h: abandon the use of ATEXIT(), we keep the fallback
215 macros for backwards compatibility. people ought to use g_atexit().
217 * gutils.c (g_atexit): new function to take over the implementation
218 of ATEXIT. this function is guarranteed to succeed, similar to
221 Mon Sep 7 20:07:38 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
223 * configure.in: comment the -std1 check and save LIBS properly
225 Mon Sep 7 07:53:21 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
227 * configure.in: check for all three inline keywords individually.
229 * glib.h: inlining hassle. for compilers that don't allow the `inline'
230 keyword, mostly because of strict ANSI C compliance or dumbness, we try
231 to fall back to either `__inline__' or `__inline'.
232 we define G_CAN_INLINE, if the compiler seems to be actually *capable*
233 to do function inlining, in which case inline function bodys do make
234 sense. we also define G_INLINE_FUNC to properly export the function
235 prototypes if no inlinig can be performed. we special case most of the
236 stuff, so inline functions can have a normal implementation by defining
237 G_INLINE_FUNC to extern and G_CAN_INLINE to 1.
239 * ltconfig: (compiler PIC flag test): special case linux for non
240 aout systems to honour lcc's position independant code (cases
241 "linux*aout)" and "linux*)" got added). (this needs to go into
242 libtool which does an advanced test, checking for __LCC__).
244 * autogen.sh: take $CC=lcc into account by invoking automake with
245 --include-deps so lcc isn't scared by gcc's auto-dependancy
246 generation code. care about $ACLOCAL_FLAGS. optionally feature
249 * minor fixups in other places to cure some of lcc's warnings.
251 Sun Sep 6 19:08:53 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
253 * configure.in: added -std1 check for ANSI compliance (from gtk)
255 Sun Sep 6 12:31:50 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
257 * glib.h: provide proper ATEXIT behavior on NeXTStep by !atexit
259 Sat Sep 5 18:03:36 1998 Tom Tromey <tromey@cygnus.com>
261 * gutils.c (GLIB_INLINE): Define.
262 * glib.h (GLIB_INLINE): New define.
263 (g_bit_nth_msf): Use it. Also, add prototype.
264 (g_bit_storage): Likewise.
265 (g_bit_storage): Likewise.
267 Sat Sep 5 04:40:02 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
270 (g_chunk_new0): use g_mem_chunk_alloc0() to allocate the memchunk,
271 so the correct size of the memchunk is allocated with 0's and not
272 a memory portion of the size of the desired type.
274 * gmem.c: new function g_mem_chunk_alloc0() which will initialize
275 a memory area allocated with g_mem_chunk_alloc() with 0's.
277 Wed Sep 2 19:13:28 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
279 * garray.c glib.h (g_array_[ap/pre]pend_vals): make
282 Wed Aug 26 06:32:40 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
285 * gstrfuncs.c: new function g_strnfill() to return a new string
286 of specified length, filled with a specific character.
288 Tue Sep 1 23:46:31 1998 Josh MacDonald <jmacd@axis.hip.berkeley.edu>
290 * testglib.c (main): Update the array tests. Reduce the number of
291 iterations for the prepend test from 10000 to 100 since it is
292 O(n^2) and was taking longer than I would like to wait.
294 * garray.c: I've worked on the GArray interface, mostly. It was
295 seriously broken before and I hate to do it, but this is going to
296 break some code. It is important to do this now, because more and
297 more people are starting to use glib and the interface was both
298 broken and inconsistent. First, rename the _truncate functions of
299 both the GArray and GPtrArray classes to _set_size, since this
300 function can also be used to extend the arrays. GArray now
301 accepts two more initialization arguments: clear and element_size.
302 Instead of providing the type to each access function, the array
303 now stores the element size. Clear, if set, causes the library to
304 zero element's memory as the array expands. The major broken-ness
305 here was that array->len was in bytes, not elements. Now, since
306 the array knows its element size, array->len is correct and I have
307 removed the g_array_length macro. The only macro which now
308 accepts the type as an argument is g_array_index, which casts the
309 element to the right type--this interface does not change. The
310 append and prepend functions simply need the types removed.
311 g_ptr_array_remove_index now returns the removed element.
313 * gprimes.c (g_spaced_primes_closest): Move this function out of
314 ghash.c and rename it from g_hash_closest_prime. Fix the primes
315 so that they are actually prime (they weren't all -- isn't that
318 Mon Aug 24 02:08:56 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
323 (g_vsprintf): removed this function which was not publically
324 exported in glib.h. to export it, it should have been named
325 differently in the first place, since its semantics differ from
326 vsprintf(). apart from that, it was a possible cause for
327 problems since it worked on a previously allocated memory area and
328 was used in a lot places of glib. exporting it would have been a
329 guararant for problems with threaded programs.
330 (g_printf_string_upper_bound): exported this function to return
331 a string size, guarranteed to be big enough to hold the fully
332 expanded format+args string. added 'q', 'L' and 'll' flag handling.
333 in fact, the newly allocated area is in most cases much bigger than
335 (g_strdup_vprintf()): new function returning a newly allocated string
336 containing the contents of *format and associated args (size is
337 calculated with g_printf_string_upper_bound()).
338 (g_strdup_printf): new function which wraps g_strdup_vprintf().
340 * configure.in: check for va_copy() or __va_copy() alternatively.
341 check whether va_lists can be copyied by value.
343 * glib.h: provide a definition for G_VA_COPY.
349 pass va_lists by value, not by reference, since this causes problems
350 on platforms that implement va_list as as arrays. internaly, use
351 G_VA_COPY (new_arg, org_arg); va_end (new_arg); to produce a second
352 va_list variable, if multiple passes are required. changed all
357 renamed g_debug() to g_on_error_query(), cleaned up a bit.
358 renamed g_stack_trace() to g_on_error_stack_trace() since both
359 functions cluttered different namespaces.
360 there is an appropriate comment in glib.h now that explains the
361 unix and gdb specific dependencies of both functions.
362 removed g_attach_process().
363 g_on_error_stack_trace() should probably be handled with caution,
364 i've seem several different linux versions (2.0.x) become unstable
365 after invokation of this function.
367 1998-08-18: Elliot Lee <sopwith@redhat.com>
369 * In gmem.c, add the ability to exclude memory chunks from the
370 memory profiling information.
372 Tue Aug 18 18:23:09 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
375 * gstrfuncs.c: added g_strndup
377 Tue Aug 18 04:40:17 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
380 * gmessages.c: new function g_log_set_always_fatal() to set an
381 additional fatal_mask for log levels that are considered to be fatal
382 globally (required by gtk). since this mask is not domain-associated,
383 it is restricted to the log levels, introduced by glib itself.
387 * gtree.c (g_tree_node_check):
388 don't use g_print() calls for informational/debugging output,
389 but log all this stuff through g_log() with G_LOG_LEVEL_INFO.
390 libraries shouldn't use printf(), g_print() or g_printerr() at all.
392 Tue Aug 18 02:46:44 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
395 * glib.h (__STRICT_ANSI__): if __STRICT_ANSI__ is defined, make
396 `inline' a noop, since strict ANSI rules don't permit `inline'.
398 Mon Aug 17 15:21:42 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
400 * grel.c: made private functions static.
402 Sun Aug 16 23:23:46 CDT 1998 Shawn T. Amundson <amundson@gtk.org>
404 * gmodule/Makefile.am: added gmodule-dl.c and gmodule-dld.c to
406 * glib.spec: version = 1.1.3
408 Mon Aug 17 01:46:14 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
410 * glib.m4: feature an extra MODULES parameter, so glib-config can
411 be invoked with the "gmodule" argument.
413 * glib.h: changed the log level to G_LOG_LEVEL_CRITICAL for all
414 g_return*_if_fail statements, and made them issue a message
415 like "assertion `%s' failed".
417 * gmessages.c (g_logv): ugh, don't pass log_domain as NULL to
420 Sun Aug 16 20:28:27 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
422 * version bump to 1.1.3, binary age 0, interface age 0.
424 * glib.h: be nice to platforms that don't have gint64 and don't
425 issue #warning on every compilation. since glib doesn't require
426 gint64 itself, packages that need gint64 should test for this
430 * gutils.c: added a new function g_vsnprintf().
432 Sun Aug 16 Elliot Lee
434 glib.h: #error out if we don't recognize the SIZEOF_VOID_P
435 #warning if no gint64
437 Fri Aug 14 16:41:53 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
439 * glib.h: added static inline functions for bit mask tests:
440 g_bit_nth_lsf, g_bit_nth_msf and g_bit_storage.
442 Fri Aug 13 14:23:37 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
446 revised the message handling system, which is now based on a new
447 mechanism g_log*. most of the assertment macros got adapted to
448 feature the new g_log() call with an additional specification of
449 the log level in a preprocessor macro G_LOG_DOMAIN. if G_LOG_DOMAIN
450 is undefined upon the includion of glib.h, it'll be defined with a
451 value of (NULL) and thus preserves the original bahaviour for
452 warning and error messages. the message handler setting functions
453 for g_warning, g_error and g_message are only provided for backwards
454 compatibility and might get removed somewhen.
456 * Makefile.am: feature the G_LOG_DOMAIN macro to set the log domain
457 to "GLib" upon compilation. we currently have to add this definition
458 to the DEFS variable.
459 * testglib.c: we need an ugly #undef G_LOG_DOMAIN at the start
460 of this file currently, since automake doesn't support per target
463 * glib.h: changed some gints to gbooleans, made a few const corrections,
464 removed some superfluous G_STMT_START{}G_STMT_END wrappers, added some
465 in other required places.
469 (g_node_insert_before):
471 (g_node_append_data):
472 (g_node_prepend_data):
473 (g_node_insert_data_before):
474 (g_node_insert_data):
476 return (node), so these macros/functions can be usefully chained with
479 Mon Aug 10 17:56:11 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
481 * glib.h: it's GTime now, and it's back!
483 Mon Aug 10 02:17:19 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
485 * Makefile.am: minor hack to cause SUBDIRS (gmodule) to be build
486 last. we do this by making all-recursive-am depend on all-am.
488 Sun Aug 9 15:56:11 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
490 * configure.in: added GModule checks. generate files in gmodule/.
491 * glib-config.in: support library specifications `glib' and `gmodule'.
492 * Makefile.am: feature the gmodule/ subdir.
494 Wed Aug 5 10:04:29 PDT 1998 Shawn T. Amundson <amundson@gtk.org>
496 * Released GLib 1.1.2
498 Wed Aug 05 01:15:36 1998 George Lebl <jirka@5z.com>
500 * testglib.c: fix 64-bitness in g_prints, sizeof doesn't
501 seem to return int so I cast it for printing, probably
504 Tue Aug 4 19:54:06 PDT 1998 Shawn T. Amundson <amundson@gkt.org>
506 * Released GLib 1.1.1
508 Tue Aug 4 15:17:54 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
510 * configure.in: version bump to 1.1.1, binary age 1, interface age 0.
513 * INSTALL: updates and fixes.
514 * COPYING: include the GNU LGPL, rather than shipping an empty file.
515 * AUTHORS: listed original authors here, and added people who made
516 significant improvements to glib.
519 * gutils.c: implement g_get_current_dir() which returns a newly
520 allocated string, instead of a g_getcwd() variant that operates
522 export glib_interface_age and glib_binary_age.
523 as a convenience, macro definitions have been added for
524 g_node_insert_data, g_node_insert_data_before, g_node_append_data and
527 * testglib.c: minor cleanups, print current dir.
529 Mon Aug 3 16:02:26 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
532 * gnode.c: change order of gpointer data; field in struct _GNode to
533 be partly binary compatible with GList and GSList.
535 1998-08-03 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
537 * garray.c (g_ptr_array_remove_index): bugfix: index check for
538 array has been wrong.
540 Fri Jul 31 22:17:05 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
542 * testglib.c (g_node_test): added a GNode test.
544 Fri Jul 31 09:08:16 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
546 * Makefile.am: compile gnode.c.
549 * gnode.c: added implementation of n-way trees.
551 * gtree.c (g_tree_traverse): added a warning to the switch() statement
552 which says that G_LEVEL_ORDER is not implemented.
554 Mon Jul 27 00:17:30 CDT 1998 Shawn T. Amundson <amundson@gtk.org>
556 * Released GLib 1.1.0
558 Mon Jul 27 01:02:27 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
560 * glib.h: #if 0'ed out the GTime definition, until it is definitively
561 needed. #if 0'ed out the g_getcwd() version, because it is the wrong
564 Sat Jul 25 16:09:00 1998 Mark Crichton <crichton@expert.cc.purdue.edu>
566 * glib.h: gtime changed to g_time. gtime is used in
567 /usr/include/time.h in NetBSD, causing multiple headaches.
568 If this isn't the right way of fixing it.... ;)
570 Thu Jul 23 00:29:14 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
573 * gscanner.c: new functions to make a scanner scope sensitive wrt
575 g_scanner_scope_foreach_symbol, g_scanner_scope_lookup_symbol,

600 place. this file shall never include <unistd.h> to avoid clashes for
601 some of the g_str* functions on some OSes.
603 Fri Jul 10 00:29:03 EEST 1998 Lauri Alanko <nether@gimp.org>
606 * ghash.c: Renamed g_hash_table_lookup_full to

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

639 * gdataset.c: removed g_dataset_try_key, g_dataset_force_id and
640 g_dataset_retrive_key in favour of GQuarks.
641 a GQuark is an numeric id wich is associated with a certain string.
642 (g_quark_try_string): try to get the quark associated with this string,
643 if the lookup failed return 0.
644 (g_quark_from_string): get the associated quark for a string, if there
645 isn't currently a GQuark associated with this string, then allocate a
646 new quark and return that.
647 (g_quark_from_static_string): like the above function, but the string
648 isn't strdup()ed to save memory.
649 (g_quark_to_string): get the string that is associated with a certain
652 * gdataset.c (g_dataset_id_set_data_full): invoke the destroy function
653 _after_ the new data has been setup.
655 Thu Jun 18 02:35:21 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@gtk.org>
657 * glib.h: Changed messages for g_return_[val]_if_fail to

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

686 remove elements, much like java.lang.Vector.
688 * garray.c: new functions for the single-byte special case of
689 GArray. The functions g_byte_array* operate on arrays of bytes.
690 Internally, a GArray is used.
692 * testglib.c: tests for g_ptr_array, g_byte_array, and g_relation...
694 1998-06-11 Federico Mena Quintero <federico@nuclecu.unam.mx>

702 sizes, to take up less space on initial allocation.
704 1998-06-10 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
706 * acinclude.m4: New file. Contains `libtool.m4' from libtool-1.2,
707 the version from which glib's libtool forked. Needed for people
708 who use post-1.2 alphas of libtool.
709 * configure.in (enable_mem_check, enable_mem_profile): Replace
710 `echo -n' with AC_MSG_CHECKING.

730 gtk-jbuhler-980516-0 (Jeremy Buhler <jbuhler@cs.washington.edu>) ]
732 * glib.h ghash.c gstring.c gdataset.c gutils.c:
733 - Added new typedef g_const_pointer; expunged all incorrect
734 uses of 'const gpointer'.
735 - Fixed up warnings that that created,
736 - Changed GHashFunc and GCompareFunc to take g_const_pointer
737 arguments. (Necessary, but will cause warnings in existing
739 - Added other new const in harmless positions.
741 Mon Jun 8 01:06:47 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
743 * glib.h: added enum-helper macros for code generation.

795 * gscanner.c (g_scanner_unexp_token): removed spurious va_end(args)
796 that for some reason didn't produce a compiler warning on my machine

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

842 * gutils.c gmessages.c: Moved g_error, g_warning, g_message and
843 g_print from gutils.c to new file gmessages.c, to avoid having to
844 include <unistd.h> in gutils.c which was causing problems for the
845 g_strsignal implementation on FreeBSD boxes.
847 Mon May 11 09:53:43 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
849 * configure.in: preserve automake CFLAGS.
851 * Makefile.am: fully rename the created library to libglib-1.1.la.
852 this means we need to change certain portions of the Makefile.am on
853 major/minor version bumps.
855 * ltmain.sh: the -release option is not required anymore.
857 * glib.h: provide G_GNUC_FUNCTION and G_GNUC_PRETTY_FUNCTION to
858 avoid conditionals. unconditionally define NULL, TRUE, FALSE, MAX,

863 * gdataset.c: new file, gdatasets implement the object data
864 mechanism from GtkObject. a generic data pointer is associated with

869 * glib/gmem.c: Experimentally restore GMemChunk
870 to its primeval state - where mem areas are
871 freed incrementally instead of searching the tree
872 every time a mem area is completely empty. Also,
873 always keep one mem chunk around. (Reduced calls
874 to malloc() a lot, but doesn't really improve
875 performance significiantly)
877 Thu May 7 08:17:28 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
879 * glib.h (G_GNUC_PRINTF):
880 (G_GNUC_SCANF): macros to facilitate the printf/scanf format argument

903 (g_list_index): find out about about the position of a
904 certain data pointer.
906 Thu May 7 05:14:19 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
908 * ltmain.sh: added a new commandline flag -postfix similar to -release,
909 but will immediately change the library name.
911 * Makefile.am: specify -postfix and -version-info
913 * configure.in: version bump to 1.1.0. added GLIB_INTERFACE_AGE and
914 GLIB_BINARY_AGE. calculate LT_* variables for libtool.
916 Fri May 1 16:36:08 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@gtk.org>
918 * gutils.c: (g_strcasecmp). Check for isupper before
919 taking tolower, and account for macroized tolower.
921 * gutils.c (g_error): Check for recursion.
923 1998-04-27 Elliot Lee <sopwith@cuc.ml.org>
925 * glist.c (g_list_position): New function to find the position of
926 a link in a list - should be the inverse of g_list_nth(), but
927 haven't tested it so poof.
929 Thu Apr 30 21:41:30 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@gtk.org>
931 * gstring.c : Check arguments more carefully,
932 (gtk-draco-980423-1.patch; ramsey@rhrk.uni-kl.de)
934 Tue Apr 7 19:36:48 1998 Owen Taylor <owt1@cornell.edu>
936 * gutils.c (g_direct_compare): Removed, because that's what
937 a NULL comparison function means. And it wasn't 64 bit safe.
939 Mon Apr 6 18:43:25 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
941 * gscanner.c (g_scanner_get_token_ll): fixed a bug that caused floats
942 of the format ".xxx" to be parsed as "xxx".
944 Fri Apr 3 20:36:35 1998 Owen Taylor <owt1@cornell.edu>
946 * gutils.c (g_parse_debug_string): Make debug string
947 parsine case-insensitive

1111 * glib.h: reverted glibconfig.h and glib.h files back to the
1112 way they were before my ugly hack.
1114 * gscanner.c: removed inlines from clist and gscanner
1116 Tue Dec 23 02:49:51 1997 Tim Janik <timj@psynet.net>
1118 * gscanner.c: new file for GScanner: Flexible lexical scanner for
1120 * glib_pre2.h: added GScanner includes. added g_strconcat and g_strtod.
1121 gutils.c (g_strconcat): new function for string concatenation of NULL
1122 terminated parameter list.
1123 (g_strtod): new function to perform best string to double conversion
1124 with or without consideration of the current locale.

1128 * glist.c: minor optimizations:
1129 (g_list_append): `if' optimized for common code path, commented out
1130 unneccessary `assert', saved one variable assignment.
1131 (g_list_prepend): saved two (conditioned) variable assignment.
1132 (g_list_insert): saved one (conditioned) variable assignment,
1133 saved one variable assignment.
1134 (g_list_remove): `if' optimized for common code path, saved two
1135 variable assignments by using `g_list_free_1' (which is even
1136 faster) instead of `g_list_free'.
1137 (g_list_reverse): saved allocation of one variable, saved one
1138 variable assignment.

1144 * glib.h: this file now gets concatenated by makeglib_h from
1145 glib_pre1.h and glib_pre2.h to merge in glibconfig.h wich got
1146 created by configure (done by Jay Painter).
1148 * glib_pre2.h: the g_assert*() and g_return_*_fail() macros
1149 are wrapped by G_STMT_START and G_STMT_END now, to avoid conflicts
1150 when used within if (...) g_macro(); else ... conditionals.

1154 * glib.h: Changed 'g_return_if_fail' and 'g_return_val_if_fail' to
1155 not call 'g_string' but to simply stringify the
1156 expression. Calling 'g_string' causes the expression to be
1157 expanded which is undesired.
