        * glib/gdataset.c:
        moved G_DATALIST_*_POINTER() macros here, because proper use requires
        the global g_dataset_global mutex to be acquired.
        g_datalist_id_get_data():
        g_datalist_unset_flags():
        g_datalist_set_flags(): properly acquire and release dataset mutex.

        * glib/gdatasetprivate.h: implement G_DATALIST_GET_FLAGS() via atomic
        pointer access to account for memory barriers. moved all other macros.

2005-07-26  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/goption.c: Include glibintl.h, not gi18n.h, noticed

        * glib/goption.h (G_OPTION_FLAG_NOALIAS): 
        * glib/goption.c: Add and implement a new flag

        * glib/giowin32.c: Totally rewritten socket channel
        implementation. See discussion in bug #147392.

        * configure.in: Don't use autoconf variables for the resource
        object files on Win32 any longer. Instead handle that in the
        Makefile.am files. Check for windres.

        * glibconfig.h.win32.in: Minor tuning to match the
        configure-produced glibconfig.h closely.

        * glib/Makefile.am: Don't use the scripts in build/win32 to
        compile glib.rc into a resource object file. (This means we lose
        the build number increment magic, but I doubt it was that useful
        anyway.) Instead use windres directly. To pass the normal .o file
        produced by windres through libtool, which wants .lo files, pass
        it directly to the linker using a -Wl option.

        * glib/glib.rc.in: Thus replace BUILDNUMBER with 0.

        * glib/gmain.c: Update the BeOS includes.

        * glib/gstdio.c: 
        * glib/gutils.c (g_find_program_in_path): 
        * glib/gbacktrace.c (g_on_error_stack_trace): Use the UNIX
        implementation on BeOS, as well.

        * configure.in: Don't put glib 1.0 into G_MODULE_LIBS, even
        on BeOS.

        * NEWS: Updates

2005-06-26  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

        * glib/Makefile.am: libtool installs/uninstalls the import
        library, no need to do it ourselves. Do still install/uninstall
        the .def file, though.

        * glib/gmappedfile.c: Add Win32 implementation.
        (g_mapped_file_free): Don't mention writable shared mappings in
        the doc comment. Free the GMappedFile struct.

        * tests/mapping-test.c (main): No kill() or SIGUSR1 on Win32, use
        a flag file instead to stop the child. Use g_usleep() instead of

2005-06-24  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        Add an mmap() wrapper called GMappedFile. (#148218,
        David Schleef, Behdad Esfahbod)

        * glib/gfileutils.c: g_build_filename_va is only use in the G_OS_WIN32
        case, so compile it conditionally.

2005-06-23  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * tests/keyfile-test.c (test_group_remove): Don't leak
        memory here.

        * glib/gfileutils.c (g_build_pathv, g_build_filenamev): 
        Variants of g_build_path() and g_build_filename()
        which take a string array instead of varargs.  
        (#149092, Todd A. Fisher)

        * tests/strfunc-test.c: Add tests for g_build_pathv() 
        and g_build_filenamev().

        Roger Leigh)

2005-06-22  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

        * glib/gfileutils.c (g_makepath): New function. Creates a
        directory including intermediate parent directories as
        needed. (#60509)

        * glib/gfileutils.h: Declare it.

        * glib/gutils.c (g_get_host_name): New function. Returns the
        machine's name, or one of its names. Document that it is
        best-effort only, and not guaranteed to be unique or anything.
        (g_get_any_init): Get the host name here. On Unix use
        gethostname(), on Windows use GetComputerName(). (#5200)

        * glib/gutils.h: Declare it.

        * glib/glib.symbols: Add new functions.

        * tests/testglib.c: Test g_makepath() and g_get_host_name().
        
2005-06-18  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/goption.h: 
        * glib/goption.c: Add G_OPTION_FLAG_NO_ARG and
        G_OPTION_FLAG_FILENAME to allow greater control of
        G_OPTION_ARG_CALLBACK options. (#302632, Dan Winship)

        * tests/option-test.c: test callback args

2005-06-14  Theppitak Karoonboonyanan  <thep@linux.thai.net>

        * configure.in: Added 'th' (Thai) to ALL_LINGUAS.

2005-06-10  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * configure.in: Bump version

        * === Released 2.7.0 ===

        * NEWS: Updates

2005-06-09  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_parse_value_as_integer): Better
        error checking. (#306389, Morten Welinder)

        * glib/goption.c (parse_int): Set errno to 0 before calling
        strtol.  (#306388, Morten Welinder)

2005-06-09  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

        * glib/gstdio.h
        * glib/gstdio.c
        * glib/glib.symbols: Add a chdir() wrapper, too.

        * glib/glib.symbols: Add g_win32_locale_filename_from_utf8().

        comment.

2005-06-08  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

        * glib/gutils.c (get_windows_directory_root): New helper function
        on Win32, returns the root of the drive (or possibly share) where
        the Windows directory is. (In the case of Terminal Server sessions
        the Windows directory is a per-user folder.)
        (g_get_any_init): Use get_windows_directory_root() as last resort
        for both temp directory and home directory. g_get_home_dir() now
        never returns NULL on Win32. Don't look at HOMEDRIVE and
        HOMEPATH. HOME, USERPROFILE, CSIDL_PROFILE and Windows directory
        drive root should be enough.

2005-06-08  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/glib.symbols: 
        * glib/gunicode.h: 
        * glib/gunicollate.c (g_utf8_collate_key_for_filename): 
        New function to calculate collation keys which are more

2005-05-27  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/goption.c (parse_short_option, parse_long_option):
        Return an error if an option is missing its argument.  (#305576,
        Björn Lindqvist)

        * tests/option-test.c (missing_arg_test): Add a testcase.

Wed May 25 15:33:51 2005  Manish Singh  <yosh@gimp.org>

        * glib/goption.c (print_help): rest_description should be const.

2005-05-25  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gunidecomp.c (combine_hangul): Don't eat Hangul 
        when normalizing.  (#301742, reported by Christian Biere,
        patch by Noah Levitt)

2005-05-24  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/goption.c (print_help): If the remaining argument
        has an arg_description, display the synopsis as
        PROGNAME [OPTION...] REST  (#305346, Noah Levitt)

2005-05-20  Federico Mena Quintero  <federico@ximian.com>

        Merged from glib-2-6:

        * glib/gspawn.c (g_spawn_command_line_sync): Clarify the meaning
        of exit_status(); it's not the return code from the child, but
        rather the waitpid() status.

2005-05-18  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gunidecomp.c: Correct the end of the Hangul 
        Syllables range, from 0xd7af to 0xd7a3, in several
        places.  (#301984, Changwoo Ryu)

2005-05-17  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * tests/tree-test.c (main): Check the return values of
        g_tree_remove().

        * glib/gtree.c (g_tree_remove, g_tree_steal): Return
        a boolean indicating wether the key was found.  (#302545,
        Matthew F. Barnes)

2005-05-06  Brian Cameron  <brian.cameron@sun.com>

        * configure.in, gmodule-no-export-2.0-uninstalled.pc.in,
          Makefile.am:  Added gmodule-no-export-2.0-uninstalled.pc.in
          to allow building of other libraries like pango when 
          glib is uninstalled.

2005-05-06  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * tests/option-test.c: Add a testcase.
        
        * glib/goption.c (g_option_context_parse): Treat '-'
        on its own as a non-option argument.  (#168008, Tim Musson,
        Thomas Leonard and others)

2005-05-05  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

        * glib/gdataset.[ch] glib/gdatasetprivate.h: Add 
        g_datalist_set/unset_flags(), g_datalist_get_flags() functions
        to squeeze some bits into a GDataSet... this is needed for
        efficient implementation of toggle references in GObject.

        * tests/gobject/references.c tests/gobject/Makefile.am:
        Add a test case for weak and toggle references.

        * glib/gfileutils.[ch]: Rename g_file_replace() back
        to g_file_set_contents().

        * glib/glib.symbols: Update.

2005-05-02  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gstring.c (g_str_equal, g_str_hash): Move docs
        inline.

2005-05-01  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/ghash.h: Rename some parameters to make gtk-doc
        happy.

        * glib/gutils.c: 
        * glib/gwin32.c: 
        * glib/gstdio.c: Fix some typos, mark new API as "Since 2.8".

2005-04-29  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gtree.c: Clarify some docs. (#302062, Matthew F. Barnes)

2005-04-28  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gstrfuncs.c (g_strcompress): Warn and don't crash
        when meeting a trailing \\.  (#301373, Benjamin Otte)

2005-04-27  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

        * glib/gconvert.c (open_converter, g_convert_with_iconv): Don't
        call g_set_error() unless the GError pointer is non-NULL. This
        avoids infinite recursion problems in certain rare situations on
        Windows, when g_locale_from_utf8() is called from
        _glib_get_locale_dir() after the change below. It's the
        _glib_gettext() calls to translate error messages that are
        parameters to g_set_error() that cause the recursion, not
        g_set_error() itself.

        * glib/gwin32.c (g_win32_locale_filename_from_utf8): New
        function. Converts a filename to the system codepage, and if a
        straight conversion isn't possible (because the filename contains
        characters not in the system codepage), try looking up the
        filename (which should refer to an existing file for this to
        succeed) with short (8.3) pathname components.

        * glib/gutils.c (_glib_get_locale_dir): No need to cache the
        result, this function is normally called only once. Return the
        path to the locale directory in system codepage, not UTF-8. The
        path is passed to bindtextdomain(), which doesn't use UTF-8 file
        names. Use g_win32_locale_filename_from_utf8(). (#301772)

        Don't do run-time lookup of message catalog directory on
        Cygwin. Cygwin is supposed to look and feel like Unix, and on Unix
        we use paths fixed at configure time.

2005-04-19  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

        * glib/gutils.h: Minor comment improvement.

2005-04-18  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

        * glib/gfileutils.c: No <sys/wait.h> on Win32. Definition of
        save_errno was missing in one place.

Sat Apr 16 20:15:44 2005  Soeren Sandmann  <sandmann@redhat.com>

        * glib/gfileutils.c (g_file_replace): Save the errno in various
        places

        * glib/gfileutils.c (set_umask_permissions): Fork a child and do
        chmod() to the umask() permissions there.

2005-04-10  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gmessages.h (g_debug): Use G_LOG_LEVEL_DEBUG in
        both definitions.  (#300071, Tommi Komulainen)

2005-04-09  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

        * glib/gutils.c: Include <process.h> on Win32 for getpid(). (#173094)

2005-04-08  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

        * glib/gstdio.h
        * glib/gstdio.c
        * glib/glib.symbols (g_access, g_chmod, g_creat): Wrap also
        access(), chmod() and creat(). (#169623, #171285)

2005-04-08  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

        Improve g_get_system_data_dirs() on Windows. A library that calls
        g_get_system_data_dirs() might be installed in a different
        top-level prefix than GLib or the application being run.

        * glib/gutils.h (g_win32_get_system_data_dirs): New static
        function defined in this header. Calls
        g_win32_get_system_data_dirs_for_module() passing the address of
        itself as parameter. g_get_system_data_dirs() is #defined as this
        function.

        * glib/gutils.c (g_win32_get_system_data_dirs_for_module): New
        function. If the address parameter is non-NULL, the corresponding
        module's installation location is used for one of the returned
        path names, in addition to the COMMON_APPDATA, COMMON_DOCUMENTS,
        glib top-level and application top-level folders.
        (g_get_system_data_dirs): Now just for backward compatibility on
        Win32. Just call g_win32_get_system_data_dirs_for_module(NULL).

        * glib/glib.symbols: Add g_win32_get_system_data_dirs_for_module.

        * glib/gutils.c (read_aliases): Not used on Windows.
        (unalias_lang): Don't do anything on Windows, there is no
        /usr/share/locale/locale.alias file..
        
Thu Apr  7 22:51:15 2005  <yosh@gimp.org>

        * glib/gutils.c (g_get_system_data_dirs): Declare glib_top_share_dir
        and exe_top_share_dir only in G_OS_WIN32.

2005-04-08  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

        * glib/gutils.c (g_get_system_data_dirs): After investigating more
        closely the actual use cases of this function, I understand better
        what it needs to do on Windows. In addition to the Windows
        COMMON_APPDATA and COMMON_DOCUMENTS folders, also return the
        "share" subfolders of GLib's installation location and the
        application .exe's installation location, hoping that either
        matches what the function's caller is looking for.

        * glib/gutils.h (G_WIN32_DLLMAIN_FOR_DLL_NAME): Use wide char API
        if available, and store dll name in UTF-8.

2005-04-05  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gfileutils.c (get_contents_stdio): Avoid memory 
        leaks in borderline cases.  (#172612, Morten Welinder)

2005-04-04  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gconvert.c: Clarify docs in some places. (#172404, 
        Morten Welinder)

2005-04-03  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gutils.h: Undef G_CAN_INLINE if G_IMPLEMENT_INLINES is 
        defined. This was the pre-2.6 behaviour, and without it,
        G_IMPLEMENT_INLINES cannot be used in multiple .c files
        at all.  (#165852, Dave Benson)

2005-04-01  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gmain.c (g_child_watch_source_new): Add a note regarding
        waitpid(-1).
        (g_child_watch_source_init_multi_threaded): 
        (g_child_watch_source_init_single): Don't use SA_RESTART,
        since it causes problems on at least one platform. (#168352)

2005-03-30  Steve Murphy  <murf@e-tools.com>

        * configure.in: Added "rw" to ALL_LINGUAS.

2005-03-30  Sven Neumann  <sven@gimp.org>

        * glib/gfileutils.c (get_contents_stdio): handle the unlikely case
        that no bytes are read from the file and allocate an empty string.

2005-03-30  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

        * glib/giowin32.c (g_io_win32_fd_get_flags_internal): Always claim
        file descriptors open to devices are readable, since we can't
        know. fstat() doesn't give any useful information. (#145326)

2005-03-29  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

        * glib/gmain.c (g_poll): [Win32] If the event fired, assign
        f->revents=f->events. We can't know whether the upper layer using
        the event actually is readable, writeable or what, so say that all
        the conditions hold. Remove the ResetEvent() call that has been
        ifdeffed out anyway for a long time. Remove an "#ifdef 1" and
        #endif pair of lines, that code is not optional.
        (g_get_current_time): [Win32] Use GetSystemTimeAsFileTime()
        instead of time() and GetTickCount(). Much simpler.

2005-03-28  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * tests/date-test.c: 
        * tests/testgdate.c: Add tests for 
        g_date_get_iso8601_week_of_year().

        * glib/gdate.c (g_date_get_iso8601_week_of_year): 
        Fix the calculation.  (#169858, Jon-Kare Hellan)

2005-03-27  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

        * configure.in: Apparently AC_LIBTOOL_WIN32_DLL isn't deprecated
        after all, and in fact necessary with HEAD libtool.

2005-03-23  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

        * glib/gutils.c (g_getenv): [Win32] Fix corner case bug when
        environment variable value is exactly one character.

2005-03-21  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/glib.symbols: Add g_try_malloc0

        * glib/gmem.h: Add g_try_new, g_try_new0, g_try_renew and
        g_try_malloc0.  (#169611, Stefan Kost)

        * glib/gmem.c: Implement g_try_malloc0.

2005-03-20  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

        * glib/gspawn-win32.c (do_spawn_with_pipes): Close the process
        handle if the caller doesn't want it also in the case without a
        helper process.
        (g_spawn_sync): Don't ask for a child pid which we don't need.

        * glib/gtimer.c: On Win32, use GetSystemTimeAsFileTime() instead
        of GetTickCount(). (#159507)

        * glib/gmessages.c (g_log_default_handler)
        * glib/gutils.c (g_get_prgname): Move the Win32 code that asks the
        program name from the system to g_get_prgname(). Do output the pid
        also on Win32 (useful in case there are several instances of the
        same program running).

        * tests/testglib.c (main): Print more detailled output from the
        timer tests. Don't print home directory twice. Test
        g_win32_error_message().

        * tests/spawn-test.c (run_tests): On Win32, run netstat instead of
        ipconfig. On Windows XP collecting output from ipconfig doesn't
        seem to work for some reason.

2005-03-18  Hans Breuer  <hans@breuer.org>

        * glib/makefile.msc.in : handle galiasdef.c (although completely 
        useless for msvc build)

        * glib/gbacktrace.c glib/gmessage.c : need at least _WIN_VER 0x0401
        for IsDebuggerPresent()

2005-03-17  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gkeyfile.c: Update the documentation, reflecting the
        fact that the special case for !group_name --> start_group
        got removed.  (#170566, Tim-Philipp Müller)

2005-03-15  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/goption.c (g_option_context_set_main_group): Warn 
        if there already is a main group.  (#170445, Jeff Franks)

Sun Mar 13 22:01:17 2005  Manish Singh  <yosh@gimp.org>

        * tests/array-test.c: delete a bunch of dead code.

Sun Mar 13 21:28:47 2005  Manish Singh  <yosh@gimp.org>

        * glib/gdataset.c: remove spurious IA prefix from g_quark_try_string.

2005-03-13  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gatomic.c:
        * glib/gcache.c: Small fixes to the previous commit.

2005-03-13  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        Make PLT-reduction work with gcc4, and don't include
        everything in galias.h:
        
        * glib/glib.symbols: Group symbols by header and source file.
        * glib/makegalias.pl: Protect definitions by the same 
        preprocessor symbols used to guard the headers. Move
        the alias declarations to a separate file which is 
        produced when calling makegalias.pl -def
        * glib/Makefile.am (galiasdef.c): Add a rule to generate this
        file.
        * glib/*.c: Include galias.h after the other GLib headers,
        include galiasdef.c at the bottom.

        * glib/glib.symbols: Add g_listenv and g_file_replace.

Fri Mar 11 23:51:12 2005  Soeren Sandmann  <sandmann@redhat.com>

        * glib/gfileutils.c (write_to_temp_file): Don't try and generate
        a dotfile from the name -- it doesn't work with absolute
        paths. Also make documentation indicate that symlinks will be
        overwritten. Both pointed out by Alexis S. L. Carvalho.

2005-03-11  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * m4macros/glib-gettext.m4: Avoid stupid compiler complaints
        about precision loss.

2005-03-10  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gdate.c: Remove a lot of pointless g_return_if_fail()
        checks.  (#169859, Morten Welinder)

2005-03-10  Sven Neumann  <sven@gimp.org>

        * tests/file-test.c: include <gstdio.h>.

2005-03-10  Sven Neumann  <sven@gimp.org>

        * glib/gfileutils.c (get_contents_stdio): delay memory allocation
        until after the first read. Saves a bunch of reallocs. Also
        increased the buffer size to 4096 bytes. (bug #165954)

        * tests/file-test.c (test_get_contents): added a (very basic) test
        for g_file_get_contents().

Wed Mar  9 19:06:45 2005  Manish Singh  <yosh@gimp.org>

        * glib/glib.symbols: Add g_file_replace.

2005-03-09  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * configure.in: Bump version

2005-03-09  Sven Neumann  <sven@gimp.org>

        * glib/gfileutils.c (g_file_replace): avoid unnecessary filename
        conversions.

2005-03-09  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

        * glib/gutils.c (g_get_user_data_dir, g_get_user_config_dir,
        g_get_user_cache_dir, g_get_system_data_dirs,
        g_get_system_config_dirs): [Win32] Don't leak return value from
        get_special_folder(). (#169348, Daniel Atallah) Guard against
        g_home_dir being NULL, use g_tmp_dir/g_user_name in that case.

Tue Mar  8 15:46:54 2005  Søren Sandmann  <sandmann@redhat.com>

        * glib/gfileutils.c (g_file_replace): New API. A function to
        atomically create a file.

2005-03-08  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/glib.symbols: Add the new attributes here too.

        * glib/gmacros.h: Define G_GNUC_NULL_TERMINATED.
        (#164706, Marc Meissner)

        * glib/gstrfuncs.h: 
        * glib/gfileutils.h: Use G_GNUC_NULL_TERMINATED where
        appropriate.

        * glib/goption.c (parse_int): Fix an error message.  
        (#168751, Hazael Maldonado Torres)

2005-03-07  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gdebug.h: Small cleanup (use G_BEGIN/END_DECLS).
        (#168474, Fabricio Barros Cabral)

2005-03-07  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gutils.c (g_find_program_in_path): Mark the last
        paragraph of the docs as Windows-specific.  (#169433)

2005-03-06  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gmarkup.c: Add G_GNUC_PRINTF attribute
        to set_error.
        (g_markup_parse_context_end_parse): Fix an
        error message, noticed by Tim Janik.

2005-02-24  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

        * glib/Makefile.am (BUILT_EXTRA_DIST): Don't distribute
        glib.def. (#167496, J. Ali Harlow)

        * glib/gfileutils.c (get_contents_win32): Use g_fopen(). (#168341,
        Daniel Atallah)

2005-02-23  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * configure.in: Don't forget to set G_THREAD_LIBS_FOR_GTHREAD 
        on non-linux platforms.  (#168177, Michael Banck)

        * tests/keyfile-test.c (test_locale_string): Set LANGUAGE 
        instead of LC_ALL to shield against LANGUAGE being set in 
        the environment.  (#168311, Suren A. Chilingaryan)

Tue Feb 22 22:03:38 2005  Manish Singh  <yosh@gimp.org>

        * glib/gstdio.h: On G_OS_UNIX, simple #define g_open and co. as
        aliases for their respective C library functions, instead of
        using the function wrappers. This avoids library users having to
        care about matching large file support with whatever glib has been
        built with. Fixes bug #167942.

        * glib/gstdio.c
        * glib/abicheck.sh
        * glib/glib.symbols
        * glib/makegalias.pl: Logic to make the gstdio wrappers still
        available for compatibility, but not used in new code.

Tue Feb 22 18:33:07 2005  Manish Singh  <yosh@gimp.org>

        * glib/gtimer.c (g_usleep): Simplify the loop for the fix below.

2005-02-20  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gqueue.c (g_queue_new): Use a memchunk for
        sizeof(GQueue)-sized chunks.  (#167984, Fabrício Barros Cabral)

        * glib/gtimer.c (g_usleep): Fix usage of 
        nanosleep().  (#163039, Bastien Nocera)

2005-02-16  Adi Attar  <aattar@cvs.gnome.org>

        * configure.in: Added "xh" to ALL_LINGUAS.

2005-02-11  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

        * glib/giowin32.c: Include winsock2.h before windows.h, to avoid
        compilation errors with MSVC. (#167105)

2005-02-10  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/goption.c (print_help): Take main group options into
        account when calculating column size.  (#166921)
        (g_option_context_parse): Accept -? as documented.  (#166977)

2005-02-09  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>
        * glib/gkeyfile.c (find_file_in_data_dirs): Don't leak path
        here.  (#166801, Kjartan Maraas)

2005-02-08  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_parse_value_as_string): Don't
        write out of bounds.

        * glib/goption.c (g_option_context_parse): Fix a 
        one-too-short memory allocation.  (#166609, Nicolas Laurent)

        * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Add tests with
        MALLOC_CHECK_.

        * tests/option-test.c: Add a test for unkown short options.

2005-02-07  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/glib.symbols: 
        * glib/gutils.h: 
        * glib/gutils.c (g_listenv): New function to list all 
        environment variables.  (#166327, Hans Petter Jansson)

2005-02-07  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

        * glib-zip.in: Add gmodule-no-export-2.0.pc.

Sun Feb  6 21:59:09 2005  Manish Singh  <yosh@gimp.org>

        * glib/abicheck.sh: feed the contents of config.h and glibconfig.h
        into the preprocessor, since glib.symbols could need #defines
        from them.

Sun Feb  6 12:09:55 2005  Manish Singh  <yosh@gimp.org>

        * glib/gatomic.c: Don't use matching constraints for asm mem
        parameters. This makes the code match with current glibc, and
        quiets some warnings with gcc 3.4.

2005-02-05  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

        * configure.in (G_LIBS_EXTRA)
        * glib/giowin32.c: I think we can include <winsock2.h> and link
        with -lws2_32. Only Windows 95 originally didn't have Winsock 2,
        and it's available as an update for it. Not that we use any actual
        Winsock 2 -only features, but still, simpler to link directly with
        ws2_32.dll instead of going through wsock32.dll.

        * glib/gfileutils.c (g_file_get_contents): In the Win32 ABI
        stability version, call g_file_get_contents_utf8(), not
        itself. (#166386, Bill Skaggs)

2005-02-04  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * configure.in: Remove the --enable-ansi option  (#160469)

        * configure.in: Define a HAVE_GNUC_VISIBILITY automake
        conditional.

        * glib/Makefile.am (TESTS): Only check the abi if
        the compiler supports visibility, otherwise we
        know there will be (harmless) extra symbols.  
        (#166181, Ed Avis)

2005-02-02  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

        * glib/gwin32.h: Remove unnecessary MSVC-only typedef for
        pid_t. (#165910) GLib does not pretend to be a POSIX emulation
        library.

        * glib/gstdio.c: In the Win32 part of all functions, handle
        invalid UTF-8 more robustly. Don't pass the resulting NULL
        wide-char or codepage strings on to C library functions, but bail
        out early. (#166084)

        * glib/gfileutils.c: Don't use potentially incorrect errno in
        several places. (#165951)
        (g_mkstemp): Set errno appropriately.

2005-02-02  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gutils.c: Move doc comments inline.

        * glib/ghash.h: Adjust some argument names.

        * configure.in: Give meaningful names to g_memmove() 
        arguments.

2005-02-01  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * tests/keyfile-test.c (test_key_remove): Add test case for
        key removal.

        * glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_remove_key): Actually remove 
        the key from the list of pairs.  (#165980, David Hoover)

        * glib/gkeyfile.c: Doc clarifications.  (#165907, Vincent Untz)

        * tests/keyfile-test.c (test_group_remove): Add test case for
        group removal.

        * glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_remove_group): Don't segfault
        if the group doesn't exist.  (#165887, Mathias Hasselmann)

2005-01-30  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * tests/keyfile-test.c: Some more unit tests.

2005-01-28  Christian Rose  <menthos@menthos.com>

        * configure.in: Added "tl" to ALL_LINGUAS.

2005-01-24  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * tests/run-markup-tests.sh: Let $srcdir default to .

        * tests/markups/fail-40.gmarkup: Add a test with a long entity
        name.

        * glib/gmarkup.c (unescape_text_state_inside_entity_name): Don't
        copy the entity name into a short buffer of fixed length. Instead,
        compare it in place with strncmp(), and do a full strdup() in the
        error path.  (#165100, Simon Budig)

2005-01-22  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

        * glib/gdate.c (g_date_set_time): Don't g_assert that localtime()
        returns non-NULL. It does return NULL at least on Win32 if you
        pass it a negative time_t, which although wrong, shouldn't cause
        an application to abort. Instead return 2000-01-01 as a default
        date. Print a warning unless G_DISABLE_CHECKS. (#164622)

2005-01-20  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_parse_value_as_integer): Don't
        interpret leading zeros as octal. The specification requires
        %f parsing, and %f doesn't allow octal.  

        * tests/keyfile-test.c: Add some more tests.

        * glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_get_keys): Return keys in
        the order found in the file, rather than the opposite.
        (g_key_file_parse_value_as_string): Fix error reporting.

2005-01-19  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_parse_data): Accept \r\n as 
        line end.  (#163030, Bastian Nocera)
        (g_key_file_load_from_data): Make -1 work as a size.
        
        * tests/keyfile-test.c: Some unit tests for the keyfile
        parser.  

        * tests/Makefile.am (test_programs): Add keyfile-test.

2005-01-19  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

        * glib/gbacktrace.c (g_on_error_stack_trace): On Win32 call
        G_BREAKPOINT() if being debugged.

        * glib/gmessages.c (g_logv): For fatal messages on Win32, use
        G_BREAKPOINT() also without G_ENABLE_DEBUG, but only if being
        debugged. Suggestion by Ulf Lamping.

2005-01-18  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gqsort.c: Don't include alloca.h. It is not needed,
        and does not exist on win32.  (#164468, Kazuki IWAMOTO)

        * glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_get_boolean_list): Fix a
        sparse warning.  (#164467, Kjartan Maraas)

2005-01-17  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gconvert.c (g_get_filename_charsets): Don't crash
        if G_FILENAME_ENCODING is empty.  (#164330, Pawel Sakowski)

2005-01-15  Tor Lillqvist  <tlillqvist@novell.com>

        * configure.in: sh portability fix. Use "test" and not [.
        (#163144, Robert Ögren)

2005-01-13  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gqsort.c: Sync to glibc.  (#133994, Morten Welinder, 
        patch by Kjartan Maraas)

2005-01-11  Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>

        * configure.in: Add gmodule-export-2.0.pc to AC_CONFIG_FILES.

        * glib/Makefile.am gobject/Makefile.am gthread/Makefile.am:
        Use grep | head -n 1 instead of grep -m 1 which doesn't work
        with slightly older versions of GNU grep in 
        install-libtool-import-lib rule.

2005-01-11  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gdir.c (g_dir_open): Typo fix.

2005-01-10  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

        * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add missing ChangeLog.pre*

2005-01-09  Hans Breuer  <hans@breuer.org>

        * glib/gfileutils.c : make it compile with mvc6 default sdk,
        (#define INVALID_FILE_ATTRIBUTES, FILE_ATTRIBUTE_DEVICE)

2005-01-09  Tor Lillqvist  <tlillqvist@novell.com>

        * glib/gwin32.c: Include also wchar.h for wcslen on
        Cygwin.
        (g_win32_error_message): Fix cast. (#163133, Roger Leigh)

        * glib/gfileutils.c: Include <io.h> on Windows for
        prototypes. (#163390, Kazuki Iwamoto)

2005-01-07  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * NEWS: Typo fixes.

        * configure.in: Bump version

        * === Released 2.6.1 ===

2005-01-07  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * configure.in: 
        * Makefile.am: Generate and distribute gmodule-export-2.0.pc,
        which is currently just a copy of gmodule-2.0.pc, but makes
        it explicit that it adds --export-dynamic.
        
        * gmodule-export-2.0.pc.in: Copy of gmodule-2.0.pc.in.

2005-01-06  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

        * glib/Makefile.am
        * gobject/Makefile.am: glib.def and gobject.def are generated, not
        in $(srcdir). (#163143, J. Ali Harlow)

        * configure.in
        * glib/Makefile.am
        * gobject/Makefile.am: Win32 cross-compilation fixes. (#163144,
        J. Ali Harlow)

2005-01-05  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gutils.h: Simplify the inlining magic to make it
        work at Oh zero.  (#162990, Kalpesh Shah) 

2005-01-04  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

        * glib/guniprop.c (get_locale_type): Use g_win32_getlocale()
        instead of setlocale() on Windows. setlocale() returns strings
        like "Turkish_Turkey".

2005-01-04  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        Fix the inlining magic.  (#157536, Jens Hatlak, and
        #149907, Morten Welinder)
        
        * configure.in: Define G_CAN_INLINE in glibconfig.h

        * glib/gutils.h: Streamline the inlining magic a bit,
        don't use extern when implementing the non-inlined 
        version.

2005-01-03  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gutils.c (g_find_program_in_path): Don't return
        directories.  (#160738, Tommi Komulainen)

        * glib/gfileutils.c (g_file_get_contents): Clarify the 
        documentation.  (#162251, Mariano Suárez-Alvarez)

2005-01-02  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gutils.c (g_setenv, g_unsetenv): Clarify the 
        docs.  (#162747, Crispin Flowerday)

2005-01-01  J. Ali Harlow  <ali@juiblex.co.uk>

        * configure.in: Don't use AC_TRY_RUN to test for long long format
        when using the MSVCRT.DLL runtime since we know the answer anyway
        and it causes some mild inconvience when cross compiling.

        * README.win32: Add a reference to the cross compiling section
        of the reference manual.

        * docs/reference/glib/cross.sgml: MinGW uses MSVCRT.DLL which
        requires %I64i instead of %lli. (#161306)

2005-01-01  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

        * glib/gutils.c: Make the g_getenv() ABI backward compatibility
        wrapper more robust.

2005-01-01  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

        * glib/glib.symbols
        * glib/gutils.h
        * glib/gutils.c: Make also g_getenv(), g_setenv(), g_unsetenv()
        and g_find_program_in_path() take and return UTF-8 strings on
        Win32. Implement DLL ABI backward compatility for them, too. Move
        all the DLL ABI stability wrappers to the end of the file. Use
        wide character API when available in inner_find_program_in_path().

        * glib/gfileutils.c: With the UTF-8ness of g_getenv() above, just
        use g_getenv() to get PATHEXT. (Yeah, it's probably overdoing it
        to consider somebody actually having anything else than ASCII
        in PATHEXT, but...)

2004-12-31  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

        * glib/gfileutils.c (g_file_test): Rewrite the Win32 version to
        use GetFileAttributes() instead of stat(). stat() is unreliable
        for corner cases like '\\server\share' or '.\'. Part of fixing
        #161797. When testing for executability, in addition to the fixed
        set of executable file name extensions also check the PATHEXT
        environment variable.

2004-12-30  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

        * glib/gutils.c (g_get_current_dir): In the Win32 version, use
        GetCurrentDirectory() directly for simpler buffer length
        management. I don't trust getcwd() getting it right all the time.

2004-12-30  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gfileutils.c (g_file_test): Typo fix.

2004-12-30  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

        * glib/gutils.c (g_path_skip_root): Require UNC paths to start
        with exactly two slashes.
        (g_get_current_dir): Use wide character API when available.
        (g_path_get_dirname): Handle UNC paths better. Part of fix for
        #161797.

2004-12-27  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * configure.in: Add an OS_LINUX conditional.

        * glib/Makefile.am (TESTS): Only check the ABI on 
        linux, since the shell script is not portable, and libtool
        deficiencies may distort the ABI on other platforms.  (#161741)

2004-12-21  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/goption.c (print_entry): Don't show
        the special G_OPTION_REMAINING entry.  (#161934,
        Matthew F. Barnes)

2004-12-20  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

        * glib/gconvert.c (g_locale_to_utf8, g_filename_to_uri): Improve
        docs.

2004-12-20  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * tests/option-test.c: Add some tests for '--' 
        stripping.

        * glib/goption.c (g_option_context_parse): Don't
        strip '--' if it would be needed by a second option
        parser.  (#161701)

        * glib/gunicollate.c (g_utf8_collate): Make docs 
        more accurate.  (#161683, Marcin Krzyzanowski)

2004-12-19  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/goption.c (g_option_context_parse): Call
        post-parse hooks also if argv is NULL.  (#161668,
        Marcin Krzyzanowski)
