        Windows.

        * glib/gspawn-win32.c: Fix #157255. Also some refactoring of this
        still very ugly source file.

2004-12-09  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/goption.c (print_help): Don't print help options
        if the options of a specific group have been 
        requested.  (#160645, Glynn Foster)

2004-12-07  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        binary compatibilty entries from the import library. They aren't
        used by newly compiled code, so no need to have them in the import
        library. (The "PRIVATE" keyword in the .def file is supposed to do
        this, but not implemented in the GNU linker yet.)

2004-12-04  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gqueue.c (g_queue_link_index): Return -1 if queue is

Wed Dec  1 17:04:37 2004  Manish Singh  <yosh@gimp.org>

        * glib/gstring.h (g_string_append_c_inline): actually enable (and
        fix up the length test).

2004-11-30  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

        * glib/Makefile.am (glib.def): gcc -E complains "linker input file
        unused because linking not done" if told to preprocess the
        glib.symbols file. Use '-' and redirection to pass it as standard
        input instead.

2004-11-30  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

2004-11-29  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gmarkup.c: Remove leftover noinline attributes.
        (is_name_start_char, is_name_char): Avoid possible reads
        beyond the end of g_ascii_table.

        * glib/Makefile.am: Use the perl found by configure.  (#149826,
        Morten Welinder)

Sun Nov 28 13:13:56 2004  Manish Singh  <yosh@gimp.org>

        * glib/abicheck.sh: filter G_GNUC before PRIVATE so $ is still true.

        * tests/utf8-validate.c: cast pointer math to gint for error print
        message.

Sun Nov 28 12:07:29 2004  Manish Singh  <yosh@gimp.org>

        * glib/gmacros.h (G_GNUC_MALLOC): Add a macro for 
        __attribute__((__malloc__)).  (#61780)

2004-11-28  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

        * glib/gutils.[hc]
        * glib/glib.symbols: [Win32] Make also g_get_user_name() and
        g_get_real() name return UTF-8. As for the similar changes to fix
        #101792, for DLL ABI stability we use preprocessor defines to get
        the new UTF-8 versions, and keep the old names for versions
        returning strings in the system codepage.

        Fix g_get_tmp_dir() and g_get_home_dir() to actually return UTF-8
        as was intended in the fix for bug #101792. (#159664, noticed by
        Robert Ögren)

2004-11-28  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gspawn.c (g_spawn_async_with_pipes): Update the @flags
        documentation with references to GChildWatch and 
        g_spawn_close_pid().  (#136255, noted by Owen Taylor)

2004-11-26  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_parse_value_as_string): 
        Don't access invalid memory address if p wasn't 
        increased.  (#159557, Frederic Crozat)

        * tests/strtod-test.c (main): Add a testcase for the previous fix.

        * glib/gstrfuncs.c (g_ascii_strtod): Make it work again for floats
        starting with a decimal point, like .75  (#156421, Hans Breuer)

Thu Nov 25 14:02:43 2004  Manish Singh  <yosh@gimp.org>

        * glib/abicheck.sh: filter out G_GNUC stuff when doing the compare.

        * glib/gmessages.c (g_assert_warning): call abort() at the end, so
        gcc doesn't warn.

2004-11-25  Kjartan Maraas  <kmaraas@gnome.org>

        * configure.in: Add «nb» to ALL_LINGUAS.

        get_package_directory_from_module,
        g_win32_get_package_installation_directory,
        g_win32_get_package_installation_subdirectory): Use wide character
        API when available. Document that string parameters and return
        values are in UTF-8.

2004-11-24  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gutf8.c: Replace g_utf8_validate() with an
        optimized version, and clarify the docs a bit.  (#159131,
        Owen Taylor)

        * tests/Makefile.am (test_programs): Add utf8-validate.

        * tests/utf8-validate.c: Unit tests for g_utf8_validate().

2004-11-23  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/goption.h: Don't mark g_option_error_quark() as const,
        to be consistent with all the other error_quark functions. 
        (technically they are const, but since these are called only
        in error paths, giving the compiler better optimization 
        opportunities doesn't matter much)

2004-11-23  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        Fix a problem with the PLT reduction changes which caused the
        internal aliases to lose all attributes.
        
        * glib/glib.symbols: Add attribute annotations.
        * glib/makegalias.pl: Keep attribute annotations, but strip PRIVATE.
        * glib/Makefile.am (glib.def): Strip attribute annotations, but keep

        * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST):

        * glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_load_from_fd): Use S_ISREG(), since

2004-11-10  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

        * glib/gconvert.c (g_get_filename_charsets): Fix typo in doc

        that we don't miss the very first child if it exits 
        before we set up the child watch. In that case we had 
        previously source->count == child_watch_count == 0, 
        causing g_child_watch_check() to skip the waitpid()

        in the main group which collects the non-option arguments.
        It must be of type G_OPTION_ARG_STRING_ARRAY or

         before trying to open file, to save an fd from being
         leaked (would probably be better to use fstat()). Close
         fd when done with it. Return TRUE on success and FALSE

         validation.  Don't leak copy of start_group_name.
         (g_key_file_to_data): serialize new comment field for
         groups.
         (g_key_file_get_keys): Remove convenience code to let
         NULL group mean start group.  Get rid of unneeded NULL
         check before g_strdup.
         (g_key_file_get_groups): Reverse groups list before
         sending to user because it is maintained in backward
         order internally.

         (g_key_file_remove_group_node): call
         g_key_file_remove_key_value_pair_node instead of 
         freeing the list immediately to get better statistics
         for approximate_size.
         (g_key_file_remove_group): use lookup_group_node instead
         of lookup_group to prevent a g_list_find call.
         (g_key_file_add_key): report group also when unable to
         find key.
         (g_key_file_lookup_group_node): new function to make
         getting the group node from a group name easier.
         (g_key_file_lookup_group): use lookup_group_node under
         the hood.
         (g_key_file_lookup_key_value_pair_node): new function to
         make getting the key-value pair from a group and key
         name eaiser.
         (g_key_file_parse_comment_as_value): new function to add '#' to the
         beginning of every line.
         (g_key_file_parse_value_as_comment): new function that
         attempts to be the inverse of comment as value.

        * glib/gmessages.c (g_logv): Fix the types of some variables
        to be GLogLevelFlags instead of guint.  (#153042, Philippe Blain)

2004-09-18  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * Version bump

        * === Released 2.5.3 ===

2004-09-17  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * NEWS: More updates.

Thu Sep 16 18:42:46 2004  Manish Singh  <yosh@gimp.org>

        * glib/abicheck.sh: don't hardcode lengths for cut, instead split on
        the third field.

Thu Sep 16 18:15:32 2004  Manish Singh  <yosh@gimp.org>

        * glib/gstrfuncs.c (g_strncasecmp): Make it take a guint for number
        of characters, instead of a gsize. Technically this is incorrect,
        but this makes it match the prototype, and this is a deprecated
        function anyway.

2004-09-16  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add abicheck.sh

Thu Sep 16 02:03:15 2004  Matthias Clasen  <maclas@gmx.de>

        Implement the same PLT reduction technique used in GTK+:
        
        * glib/glib.symbols: Master list of symbols

        * glib/makegalias.pl: Perl script which creates galias.h

        * glib/abicheck.sh: Compares actual exports against glib.symbols 

        * glib/glib.def: Removed. This file is now generated from
        glib.symbols
        
        * glib/Makefile.am: Add rules to generate galias.h and glib.def,
        and add abicheck.sh to TESTS. Don't export _-prefixed symbols.
        
        * configure.in: Add --disable-visibility to suppress the 
        use of ELF visibility attributes.

        * glib/*.c: Include galias.h

2004-09-15  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

        * glib/gwin32.c (g_win32_error_message): Convert message to
        UTF-8. Technically this breaks API, but the actual use cases in
        gdk/win32 have assumed it is UTF-8 anyway. Fix
        documentation. (#152618, Kazuki Iwamoto)

        * glib/gwin32.h: Don't define ftruncate as a macro. Was never a
        good idea, and it clashes with newest mingw headers, which have a
        ftruncate implementation as an inline function. Thanks to Dominik R.

        * glib/gwin32.c (g_win32_ftruncate): Simplify implementation, just
        call _chsize() in the C library.

        GTK+ uses for the PLT-reduction aliases. 

Thu Sep  9 13:52:26 2004  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

        * glib/gmessages.c (g_return_if_fail_warning):

Thu Sep  9 10:37:41 2004  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

        * glib/gmessages.h (g_return_[val_]if_fail): Use
        a helper function to reduce code size; omit FILE/LINE

        call g_win32_getlocale() to get the current thread locale. There
        usually aren't any POSIXish LANG or LC_* environment variables
        present on Windows machines.

        * glib/glib.def: Add g_get_language_names.

2004-09-07  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        * glib/gutils.h: 
        * glib/gutils.c (g_get_language_names): Add a function to

        Hidetoshi Tajima)
        (guess_category_value, compute_locale_variants):

        for precision correctly. (#142400)

        Reinstate LIBCHARSET_ALIAS_DIR support which got lost at some
        point.  (#139134, Piotr Klaban)

        * glib/gconvert.c (open_converter): Don't call g_strerror() here, 
        since it can lead to infinite recursion.  (#139133, Piotr Klaban)

2004-04-22  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

        calls.  (#139030, Christophe Saout)

        * glib/gmain.c
        * glib/gstrfuncs.c
        * glib/gthread.c: Decorating variable definitions with
        __declspec(dllexport) causes problems on Cygwin build, and isn't
        really needed for a native Win32 build with mingw or MSVC, so
        remove. (#138402, Roger Leigh)

        * glib/libcharset/localcharset.c: Use Win32-specific code also on
        Cygwin.
        * tests/uri-test.c: Don't assume that local filenames are in UTF-8
        on Cygwin, either. (#138412, Roger Leigh)

2004-04-08  Guntupalli Karunakar  <karunakar@freedomink.org>

        * configure.in: Added "gu" (Gujarati) to ALL_LINGUAS.

2004-04-03  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

        * glib/gutils.c (g_path_get_dirname): Fix Win32 behaviour in some
        cases where a drive letter is present. For 'a:' or 'a:foo', return
        'a:.'. This is mostly just for consistency with the behaviour
        without a drive letter. But very important is to for 'a:\foo' or
        'a:\', return 'a:\', and not 'a:'. (Ditto for forward slashes
        instead of backslashes.) (#137316)

        * tests/dirname-test.c (main): More complete testing on Win32. If
        a test fails, include expected and actual result in error message.

        * tests/atomic-test.c (main): Make computation
        of "biggest_pointer" vaguely more portable.
        (#137498, Jonas Jonsson)

2004-03-16  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

        * configure.in: Define HAVE_INT64_AND_I64 also in the mingw (gcc
        on Win32) case, where the 64-bit type is called long long, but the
        system printf/scanf format modifier for 64-bit integers is still I64.

2004-03-16  Gareth Owen  <gowen72@yahoo.com>

        * configure.in: Added en_GB to ALL_LINGUAS
