190 upstream CI machines, and downstream packagers may want to not run them (or
191 not treat those test failures as package build failures) on their test
192 machines either. They are in the `flaky` test suite. (!579)

260 Overview of changes in GLib 2.59.0
261 ==================================
263 * This will be the last development release with autotools support. As our
264 Meson support has been around since 2.56.x, and was used to release tarballs
265 in 2.58.x, the next development release (2.59.1) will drop autotools as used
266 to build GLib. The macros installed for other packages to use will remain.
268 * Add `G_TEST_OPTION_ISOLATE_DIRS` to redirect `XDG_*_HOME` to a temporary
269 directory for each unit test. (#538)
271 * Support `Property.EmitsChangedSignal` annotations in `gdbus-codegen`. (#542)
273 * Add `g_assert_cmpvariant()` API for unit tests. (#1191)
275 * Hide bind mounts from GIO mount listings. (#1271)
277 * Automatically realign data passed to `g_variant_new_from_bytes()` or
278 `g_variant_new_from_data()` if it is not correctly aligned. This prevents
279 misaligned accesses on architectures which don’t support them. Callers should
280 still aim to correctly align data to get higher performance. (#1342)
282 * Support `ld -b binary` (on platforms which support it; i.e. Linux) to provide
283 large pre-compiled `GResource` resources with a fast compilation time. (#1489)
285 * Unconditionally install GLib m4 macros, so that projects which depend on GLib
286 and which still build using autotools can continue to build even once GLib has
287 ported entirely to Meson. (#1520)
289 * Various fixes to the Meson build.
291 * Drop Python 2 support and require Python 3.4+. See discussion on
292 https://mail.gnome.org/archives/desktop-devel-list/2018-July/msg00004.html.
295 * `GHashTable` performance and memory improvements for common cases. See
296 https://hpjansson.org/blag/2018/07/24/a-hash-table-re-hash/. (!208)
298 * Add flags that allow a `GApplication` to signal and replace a currently
299 running other instance of the same `GApplication`. This will be used for app
300 upgrades with flatpak. (!250)
302 * Autostart xdg-desktop-portal when using the network monitor and proxy monitor
303 portal backends. (!317)
305 * Add a g_task_set_name() API to allow `GTask`s to be described; useful for
308 * Enable FreeBSD CI on every commit for upstream GLib. (!387)
310 * Various GVariant, GMarkup and GDBus fuzzing fixes, including buffer overflow
313 * Various fixes to eliminate thread races, found by thread sanitizer (tsan).
315 * Deprecate TLS/DTLS rehandshaking, as it has been removed from the protocol in
318 * Support reading arguments from a file with `glib-mkenums`, which is useful
319 for long argument lists due to having deeply nested build directories, on
320 systems with a low limit on the command line length. (!489)
322 * Make `g_environ_*()` case-insensitive on Windows, as the environment itself
323 is case-insensitive on Windows. (!500)
325 * Add Application Layer Protocol Negotiation (ALPN) support to `GTlsConnection`
326 and `GDtlsConnection`, so that higher layer protocols can be negotiated when
327 setting up a TLS connection, without additional round trips and latency. This
328 is needed for eventual HTTP/2 support. (!520)
330 * Add support for TPM keys in PEM files when loading TLS certificates. (!522)
332 * Add a `GRecMutexLocker` auto-pointer wrapper for `GRecMutex`. (!528)

541 Overview of changes in GLib 2.58.0
542 ==================================
544 * Tarball built with `ninja dist`, so if you want to build this release with
545 autotools (which is supported), you will need to re-run autogen.sh. This
546 release, and all micro releases in the 2.58.x series, support being built
547 with Meson or autotools. See:
548 https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-devel-list/2018-June/msg00012.html
550 * Fix cancellation of g_subprocess_communicate_async() calls. See !266.
552 * Drop support for the __int64 type, which further breaks compilation on old
553 MSVC versions (before VS2013). See #1313.
555 * Expose GSettings schema directory in gio-2.0.pc as `schemasdir`. See !274.
557 * Support v3 of the xdg-desktop-portal network monitor API. See !265, !279.
559 * Fix G_MODULE_SUFFIX on macOS when GLib is built with Meson — it should be `so`
560 rather than `dylib`. Projects that use Meson and the `g_module_build_path()`
561 API such as glib-networking should pass `name_suffix:` to `shared_module()` to
562 ensure that plugins continue to be called libfoo.so on macOS. See !280.
565 !280 meson: Always set G_MODULE_SUFFIX to `so` on macOS
566 !266 subprocess: Fix communicate_cancelled signature
567 !279 Revert "Add a gnet utility" (see !265)
568 !265 Network monitor again
569 !274 gio: Provide schemas directory information in pkg-config file
570 !239 gvariant: Fix more bounds checking in GVariant text format parser
571 !195 garray: add overflow checks before expanding array
572 #1497 g_strdup_printf warns on invalid format specifier with G_GUINT64_FORMAT on Win32
573 !270 autotools: remove support for the __int64 type. See #1313
574 !267 ci: Add an autotools job
576 * Translation updates:
586 Overview of changes in GLib 2.57.3
587 ==================================
589 * G_GNUC_MALLOC’s definition has been tightened up to match an updated
590 definition from GCC. Many uses of G_GNUC_MALLOC which were previously
591 appropriate may cause miscompilation with newer GCC versions. Check your uses
592 of it against the updated documentation. See #1465.
594 * Many minor documentation fixes.
596 * Fix for gint64 and int64_t compatibility on macOS and BSD. See #972.
598 * Fix free space metadata on some file systems (notably FAT). See #328.
600 * Support installed-tests with our Meson build system. See #1444.
602 * Forbid @filename@/@basename@ in glib-mkenums templates, which is a change to
603 its long-standing behaviour (which was long-standing nonsensical). See !241.
605 * Various stat() fixes on Windows. See #1452, #1476.
607 * MinGW-w64 ABI warning: In case you build 64 bit glib without LFS support by
608 passing --disable-largefile (not the default) and use GStatBuf, you need to
609 rebuild your application as the size of GStatBuf has changed for this case.
612 * Improve TAP compatibility of g_test_incomplete(). See #1474.
614 * Change fallback preferences when loading icons. See !72.
617 !263 build: Clean files left behind after gio/tests/gresource.c test
618 !262 gmem: Only evaluate pointer argument to g_clear_pointer() once
619 #1465 Many uses of G_GNUC_MALLOC are incorrect
620 #1448 g_error does not abort() as documented
621 #1494 g_clear_pointer may not use the correct calling convention with its callback
622 #972 Mismatch between gint64 and int64_t on 64-bit macOS/BSD

652 #1446 Follow-up from "Document difference between g_assert() and g_assert_*() wrt G_DISABLE_ASSERT"
653 !206 grefstring: Avoid an unnecessary NUL assignment
654 #1458 g_volume_get_mount returns NULL value after g_volume_mount_finish is called with no error

1797 are now supported on Solaris as well, and the Linux support no longer

1801 environment variable.

2027 symbols from libglib-2.0.so. It is unlikely that this will have caused
2028 any problems because these symbols were only backup symbols for
2029 definitions exported as inlines in the header files, but ABI is ABI.
2031 This release corrects only this problem.
2033 Overview of changes in GLib 2.47.2
2034 ==================================
2036 * We have formalised the assumption that all compilers that are
2037 interested in support 'static inline' and simplified the macros around
2038 this considerably. Please watch for and report unintentional fallout.
2040 * New API: hardware-assisted helpers for overflow-checked integer math.

2386 Overview of changes in GLib 2.45.1
2387 ==================================
2389 * The GSettings schema compiler, glib-compile-schemas has been changed
2390 to reject schema xml that has duplicate <summary> or <description>
2391 elements. Such elements typically occur when translations are merged
2392 into the schema, with xml:lang attributes. This is not the correct
2393 way to translate schemas. Instead keep the translations in the .mo
2394 file and set the gettext-domain attribute on the <schemalist> element.
2396 * The file monitoring infrastructure has been rewritten, and all backends
2397 have seen major improvements.
2399 The inotify backend is reporting events with less delay (no event will
2400 be delayed more than 10ms) and wakeups due to file monitoring have been
2401 significantly reduced. A CHANGES_DONE event will also be sent when new
2404 The poll implementation is now using the thread default main context.
2406 The fam implmentation is now running in the worker thread.
2408 The fen implementation has been removed, since it was unmaintained.
2410 * The GSettings schema compiler, glib-compile-schemas, is more strict
2411 about rejecting schemas with xml:lang style merged translations.
2412 Schema translations should be done by specifying the gettext domain
2413 in the xml, and keeping the translations in gettext. To avoid breaking
2414 already-installed schemas, this change is only taking effect when
2415 you use the --strict option.
2417 * The hardcoded 10-thread limit of GTask's thread pool has been removed,
2418 since it was prone to causing deadlocks. The thread pool is now allowed
2419 to grow dynamically and will shrink back over time.
2421 * GSimpleAsyncResult has been deprecated in favor of GTask.
2423 * The algorithm used by GAppInfo to find default handlers for mime types
2424 has been tweaked to prefer apps that handle the specific subtype over
2425 default handlers for a generic supertype.

2471 ===================================
2473 GLib is now considered frozen. We do not expect any major changes
2474 before the release of 2.44.0.
2476 * GUnixMountMonitor now properly supports multiple main contexts
2478 * many documentation improvements and cleanups. We are now
2479 approaching a point where the documentation is 100% complete and the
2480 xml will build without warnings. This will probably be enabled by
2481 default in the next cycle.
2483 * new support for HTTP proxies in GIO
2485 * new GTask:completed property
2487 * use "private" futexes in order to further improve the performance of
2488 the contended case of GMutex and g_bit_lock()

2528 ===================================
2530 We have now added 'g_autofree' as a libgsystem-style autocleanup macro
2531 that calls g_free() on the content of a local variable when it leaves
2532 scope (working only on GCC and clang).
2534 GApplication now has an "is-busy" property, allowing one to query the
2535 effective busy state.

2591 cleanup. They only work with gcc and clang.
2593 * GListModel is a new interface that represents a dynamic list of GObjects.

3077 release is known to be broken with at least GNU/Hurd, pending addition
3078 of working pthread_condattr_setclock(CLOCK_MONOTONIC) there.

3333 Overview of changes from GLib 2.39.0 to GLib 2.39.1
3334 ====================================================
3336 * GSettings fixes/improvements
3338 - GSettingsSchema API is now more powerful and consistent
3340 - new GSettingsSchemaKey API allows accessing metadata for keys:
3341 type, default value, range and the long-awaited support for summary
3344 - GSettingsSchemaSource gains support for listing schemas within a
3345 source. Deprecate the global API that did this for the default
3348 - 'gsettings list-schemas' now works properly with --schemadir
3350 - deprecate a bunch of now-redundant functionality on GSettings
3352 - add API to GSettings for getting the default value of a key (as set
3355 - add API to GSettings for determining if the user has assigned a
3356 particular value to a key (ie: we are not just reading the default)
3358 - ignore qualified tags and attributes appearing in schema files
3360 * Applications/Actions
3362 - make GSimpleAction a bit more strict with respect to state changes
3363 that would violate the interface (ie: by changing the state type
3366 - throw an error when attempting to 'Describe' a non-existent action
3367 via D-Bus instead of returning a bogus description
3369 - throw an error when attempting to invoke unsupported methods on an
3370 Application (eg: 'Open' on an app that doesn't HANDLES_OPEN)
3371 instead of emitting a g_critical() in context of the app (which is
3372 not itself at fault for the errant call)
3376 - substantially rework GDesktopAppInfo to reduce the amount of disk
3377 accesses that are performed in common situations
3379 - add a new class: GAppInfoMonitor for discovering when applications
3380 are installed/removed
3382 - add a new g_desktop_app_info_search() API for searching for
3383 installed applications by name, keywords, etc.
3385 * GMarkup: add new G_MARKUP_IGNORE_QUALIFIED flag for skipping over
3386 "qualified" tags and attributes (those with a colon in the name, such
3391 - ignore qualified tags, as above
3393 - GTestDBus: unset all D-Bus addresses (such as STARTER) to ensure
3394 that test programs don't pick them up
3396 - add new session_bus_run() convenience in the tests and use it
3398 * GRand: use real random data as a seed on win32 and use the
3399 timestamp/pid/uid fallback only on UNIX machines where we can't open
3400 '/dev/urandom'. This may cause issues with older mingw32 releases
3401 due to a missing prototype for the rand_s() API.
3403 * Many win32 (and particularly MSVC) portability fixes. Many
3404 additional tests are now runnable when building with MSVC.
3406 * Due to early testing of the (soon to land) GCleanup framework, a very
3407 large number of memory errors have been found and fixed (mostly in
3408 the testcases, but some in glib itself).
3412 - some more seeking cleanups: particularly on GLocalFileInputStream
3414 - don't leave a .trashinfo file around if trashing a file fails
3416 - Add a request_certificate virtual method to GTlsInteraction
3418 Translations updated:

3468 Overview of changes from GLib 2.38.0 to GLib 2.39.0
3469 ====================================================
3471 * prep for the 2.40 series (version macros, docs index, etc.)
3475 - new API for sending persistent notifications via the desktop shell
3477 - notifications persist when the application has quit and clicking on
3478 them can restart the application with an action (via
3483 - new API for launching subprocesses
3485 - nice GIO integration like async functions, cancellability, etc.
3487 - a convenient communicate() API inspired by the same API in Python
3489 - related: the gspawn API now has a CLOEXEC flag for the created
3490 pipes for stdin/stdout/stderr
3492 * New gapplication(1) commandline tool
3494 - intended to be used with DBusActivatable apps
3496 - can be used for launching apps, opening files, invoking application
3497 actions and listing apps and actions
3499 - bash tab completion is supported
3501 * GDesktopAppInfo changes:
3503 - g_file_get_path() can implicitly cause a FUSE mount so don't call
3504 it until we know we need it (for an app that doesn't support URIs)
3506 - don't crash when trying to load from a keyfile with
3507 DBusActivatable=true
3509 - remove some dead code, refactor the search path handling a bit and
3510 do a large-scale whitespace cleanup (prep work for the pending
3515 - fix broken handling of mount point monitoring
3517 - remove some strange use of GObject::constructor() from the base
3518 class and inotify backend
3520 - fix GFileMonitor to work in the non-default main context even when
3521 the main context is not running (or is blocked)
3523 - add internal private API for easily creating a file monitor in the
3528 - g_settings_list_children: only list viable schemas. This fixes a
3529 longstanding issue where 'gsettings list-recursively' will crash
3530 when there are invalid schemas installed
3532 - don't accept invalid paths on g_settings_new_with_path, etc.
3536 - GFile now has a thumbnail::is-valid attribute to check if the
3537 thumbnail in thumbnail::path needs to be regenerated
3539 - GDBusProxy now has a flag to control autostarting of services at
3542 - for GSeekable, properly introduce the concept of "resizable" vs.
3543 "fixed-sized" streams in the docs, explaining the expected
3544 semantics of the interface in each case
3546 - fix some cases in GMemoryOutputStream that were violating the above
3547 expectations (which may cause a slight API incompatibility)
3549 - clean up GCredentials code and add support for Hurd and Solaris
3551 - improve splicing by using different codepaths for the case where we
3552 have real _read_async() and _write_async() implementations on the
3553 stream vs. the case where they are internally emulated (via
3554 dispatching the sync variant of the call in a thread)
3558 - fix a leak in g_key_file_get_(u)int64 when we fail to parse the
3561 - add long-requested API g_key_file_save_to_file()
3563 * Portability improvements
3565 - avoid using O_DIRECTORY on platforms that don't have it
3567 - be careful about systems that define SOCK_CLOEXEC but don't
3568 actually support it (like Hurd)
3570 - only use SA_RESTART if it exists
3572 * Other small API changes/additions
3574 - a pair of functions to support matching strings for the type of
3575 search functionality that you'd expect to have with things like
3576 GtkSearchBar. This will also be used by the desktop file index.
3578 - g_str_is_ascii() with obvious purpose
3580 - g_test_expect_message() no longer appears to allow you to catch
3581 G_LOG_ERROR messages
3583 * GMainContext/GSource
3585 - fix handling of overflowing the 'next source id' counter
3587 - g_source_remove() will now throw a critical in the case that you
3588 try to remove a non-existent source. We expect that there is some
3589 code in the wild that will fall afoul of this new critical but
3590 considering that we now reuse source IDs, this code is already
3591 broken and should probably be fixed.
3593 - simplify handling of the 'current dispatching source' to not
3594 require use of a linked list
3598 - the long-broken (and leaky) pattern of destroying a just-allocated
3599 object from inside of a custom GObject::constructor is now
3600 officially completely illegal and will abort the program
3602 * Unicode: update to 6.3.0
3606 - g_file_copy() now falls back to pathname queryinfo. This should
3607 clear up the bugs with copying from some GVfs backends (afp,
3608 gphoto, archive, at least).
3610 - fix an out-of-bounds read in the xdgmime code
3612 - fix a typo in the /org/freedesktop/DBus path on the object manager
3615 - skip emitting path_namespace='/' in match rules in order to
3616 workaround a bug in the D-Bus daemon and fix our own implementation
3617 (which shared exactly the same bug)
3619 - fix crashes on precondition violations for GParamSpec constructors
3621 - many other small fixups (see bug list)
3623 * Many documentation improvements
3626 309224 g_key_file_save_to_file missing
3627 583321 QNX: no SA_RESTART
3628 661576 fix handling of constructors that destroy half-constructed objects

3681 What's new in Glib 2.38
3682 ========================
3684 * Application support
3686 - GIO now provides an implementation of Desktop Actions from the
3687 desktop entry specification
3689 - GApplication now implements the org.freedesktop.Application
3690 interface as per the desktop entry specification, allowing for
3691 standards-based D-Bus launching of GLib-based applications
3693 - GDesktopAppInfo now supports DBusActivatable as per the desktop
3694 entry specification, allowing GLib-based applications to use D-Bus
3695 to launch other applications
3697 - GApplication now has a "busy" flag that can be set on an application
3698 to allow the shell to show that it is busy
3702 - the private offset for a given class type is now always constant.
3703 This was done by reorganising the memory layout of instances so that
3704 the private data comes before the "official" pointer for the object
3705 (ie: at a negative offset). Valgrind macros were added to mitigate
3706 any problems that this may have caused.
3708 - a new G_DEFINE_TYPE_WITH_PRIVATE has been added along with a
3709 generated function *_get_instance_private() that can now serve as an
3710 equally-performing alternative to ->priv pointers in instances
3711 (allowing memory savings)
3713 - new G_PRIVATE_FIELD, G_PRIVATE_FIELD_P and G_PRIVATE_OFFSET macros
3714 provide a convenient method of converting between named variables in
3715 private structures and their (now constant) offsets
3717 - installing properties on a GObjectClass must now be done from
3718 class_init. It is no longer valid to install them after class_init
3721 - it is now possible to manually break a GObject property binding
3722 without destroying one of the objects involved
3726 - the requirements for implementing the GIcon interface have changed
3727 in order to make it possible to consume all implementations of GIcon
3728 with a finite number of cases
3730 - a new GBytesIcon type was added for an icon represented by an
3731 in-memory binary blob in a known image format (ideally png).
3733 - new APIs g_icon_serialize() and g_icon_deserialize() replace the old
3734 to/from_string APIs and will always work, irrespective of which
3735 types have been initialised in the calling process, allowing for a
3736 serialised GdkPixbuf to be deserialised in a process that doesn't
3739 - support for icons has been added to GMenuModel using the new APIs
3743 - GPropertyAction provides a convenient way of creating a stateful
3744 property corresponding to a property on a GObject, such as the
3745 "visible-child-name" property of a GtkStack
3747 - new API g_menu_remove_all()
3749 - we now have established rules about what is a "valid" action name
3750 and an API to check them
3752 - a new API for converting detailed action names to and from the
3753 split-out name and parameter value (as GVariant)
3755 - for backwards compatibility, invalid action names can still be used
3756 with most functions, but this is not recommended
3760 - GDBus now supports services that wish to handle some of all
3761 properties on an interface asynchronously, without requiring the
3762 service to reimplement the entire org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties
3765 - GFile now has a new _measure_disk_usage() (and async) API for
3766 recursively determining the amount of disk space used by a
3767 particular directory (akin to 'du').
3769 - asynchronous version of g_file_trash() and g_file_make_directory()
3774 - GRegex has a new function to query the maximum lookbehind length to
3775 allow for regexp matching on streams
3777 - GVariant has two new APIs for constructing strings that allow
3778 avoiding copies in some cases: g_variant_new_take_string() and
3779 g_variant_new_printf()
3783 - we can now generate TAP output
3785 - new support functions for simplifying the process of dealing with
3786 data files for srcdir != builddir and installed test cases
3788 - g_test_trap_subprocess() provides a portable alternative to
3793 - GLib now builds on Android against the bionic C library

3918 * Implement the Desktop Action specification: In the case that the
3919 application is a GApplication and DBusActivatable, actions from the
3920 desktop file are translated into GActions that have been added to
3921 the application with g_action_map_add_action().

4014 * The GLib test utilities have grown some file-related APIs
4015 to support tests that can be used installed and uninstalled.
4017 * Installing properties after class initialization is deprecated,
4018 and will trigger a warning.

4062 replacement for the (now deprecated) g_test_trap_fork()
4064 * support for explicitly cancelling a gobject property binding
4066 * performance improvements for signal argument handling
4068 * stop using `quotes' in very many log messages generated by GLib, for
4069 favour of 'this style'. This may cause testcases in other packages
4070 to fail if they were matching on the previous text.

4103 Overview of changes fron GLib 2.36.0 to 2.37.0
4104 ==============================================
4106 * The syntax for detailed action names has been documented,
4107 and a parser API for them is now provided
4109 * GApplication has gained a busy state. This feature is intended for
4110 clients that want to signal a desktop shell their busy state, for
4111 instance because a long-running operation is pending.

4174 This release contains only small bugfixes and translations updates.
4176 - g_file_copy(): fix bug where attributes were not applied properly to
4177 the destination file
4179 - fix some 'available since' annotations

4203 Overview of changes from GLib 2.35.8 to 2.35.9
4204 ==============================================
4206 This release drops the old codepage ABI from gutils.c. This is a
4207 source-compatible change and only breaks ABI with respect to truly
4208 ancient binaries (and those binaries are already broken for other
4209 reasons). This change only affects Windows.

4263 Overview of changes from GLib 2.35.7 to 2.35.8
4264 ==============================================
4266 This release contains one major change that may cause problems: type
4267 modules are now never unloaded. This is implemented by (effectively)
4268 leaking the last reference on dynamic types. Some testcases that check
4269 for unloading of types have been observed to be broken by this change,
4270 but we know of no actual cases of "real code" breaking. Please report
4274 * A couple of build fixes for Solaris
4275 * Fix signal emission for GDBusObjectManagerClient
4277 * new API: g_dbus_address_escape_value()
4278 * GSocketClient: add proxy-resolver property
4279 * GSimpleProxyResolver: new simple GProxyResolver class
4280 * documentation fixes
4281 * gnetworkaddress: preserve IPv6 scope ID in IP literals
4284 691105 Allow GSocketClient to override GProxyResolver for per client proxy settings.

4298 Overview of changes from GLib 2.35.6 to 2.35.7
4299 ==============================================
4301 This is a quick follow-up release with a few bug fixes.
4303 * Fix the build on systems with strict linkers by adding -pthread back
4304 to the LDFLAGS for a testcase.
4306 * Re-enable native atomic operations on some buggy versions of clang
4307 that ship as part of the MacOS X SDK.
4309 * Make G_IO_FLAG_IS_WRITEABLE an enum again (the #define broke bindings)
4322 Overview of changes from GLib 2.35.4 to 2.35.6
4323 ==============================================
4325 * GUnixFdSource is a new way to add file descriptors
4328 * g_source_set_ready_time lets you mark a source to become
4329 ready at a specified monotonic time
4331 * The internal visibility handling of GLib has been reworked
4333 * GFileMonitor will now automatically use fam instead of inotify
4336 * The file monitor implementation can now be overridden with
4337 the GIO_USE_FILE_MONITOR environment variable

4435 * Translation updates:
4450 Overview of changes from GLib 2.35.2 to 2.35.3
4451 ==============================================
4453 * This release contains an incompatible change to the g_get_home_dir()
4454 function. Previously, this function would effectively ignore the HOME
4455 environment variable and always return the value from /etc/password.
4456 As of this version, the HOME variable is used if it is set and the
4457 value from /etc/passwd is only used as a fallback.
4459 * We now install a public "gnetworking.h" header that can be used to
4460 include the relevant OS-dependent networking headers. This does not
4461 really abstract away unix-vs-windows however; error codes, in
4462 particular, are incompatible.
4464 * Bugs fixed in this release:

4509 Overview of changes from GLib 2.35.1 to 2.35.2
4510 ==============================================
4512 Note that the incompatible change to the ->constructed() vfunc that was
4513 made in the last unstable release (2.35.1) has been reverted due to
4514 causing regressions in applications.
4516 A new incompatible change has been introduced in this version: it is no
4517 longer permitted to add interfaces to a class after the first
4518 instantiation (or more strictly: after g_type_class_ref()). Bug #687659
4521 Two private symbols (g_menu_{attribute,link}_hash_iter_get_type) which
4522 were accidentally exported have also been properly hidden. This may
4523 cause some tools to issue warnings about ABI mismatch.
4525 The remaining changes should be relatively harmless:
4527 * GIO now has kqueue support for GFileMonitor (BSDs, Mac OS)
4529 * New g_variant_new_from_bytes() API
4531 * UNIX signal sources now allow watching SIGUSR1 and SIGUSR2
4533 * Many pedantic cleanups to adhere to a higher level of -W use
4535 * GTask changes to avoid a deadlock
4537 * many cleanups/fixes for Windows
4539 * Boxing for GPollFD, GIOChannel, GBytes, GByteArray
4541 * Fix URL-encoding of trashed files
4543 * Many other docs and annotations fixes

4593 Overview of changes from GLib 2.34.0 to 2.35.1
4594 ==============================================
4596 These two changes in particular may be slightly incompatible. Please
4597 give feedback if they cause trouble:
4599 * Signal handlers connected with g_signal_connect_object() are now
4600 automatically disconnected on target object destruction
4602 * The ->constructed vfunc is now called after all properties are set
4604 The remaining changes should not cause problems.

5436 Overview of changes from GLib 2.31.6 to 2.31.8
5437 ==============================================
5440 - The type checks for overriding properties have been loosened.
5441 In particular, it is now possible to add the CONSTRUCT flag
5442 to an overridden property
5443 - GWeakRef is a new API for weak references; unlike g_object_weak_ref
5444 and g_object_add_weak_pointer, it is thread-safe.
5446 * GHashTable has grown new convenience api for use as a set:
5447 g_hash_table_add, g_hash_table_contains

5491 Overview of changes from GLib 2.31.4 to 2.31.6
5492 ==============================================
5494 * GApplication no longer has APIs for setting menus. Those have been
5495 moved to GtkApplication.
5497 * the GActionGroup import/export functionality has been decoupled from
5498 GApplication by the introduction of a new interface for the purpose of
5499 handling platform data: GRemoteActionGroup. This allows Gtk to
5500 properly deal with platform data (and gdk threads) on window actions.
5502 * lots of documentation improvements
5504 * bug fixes and a huge number of memory leak fixes
5506 * the test suite now passes on ARM and some of the GDBus testcase hangs
5507 we've been seeing have been resolved (although others could remain)
5509 * g_bytes_get_data() API changed: now includes 'size' out parameter
5511 * new g_queue_free_full() API similar to g_[s]list_free_full()
5513 * desktop files: use standard "Keywords" now, not "X-GNOME-Keywords"
5515 * gsettings commandline tool now has --schemadir option for schemas not
5516 installed in the usual place (ie: as part of plugins)
5519 643736 GApplication doesn't emit dbus signals on action updates
5520 657433 g_queue_free_full() missing

5524 666113 various leaks in GLib, GIO are visible in the regression tests
5525 666115 various tests leak memory, obscuring real leaks in the library
5526 666145 Doc could be more explicite that g_thread_init calls can be droped
5527 666173 Configure warning - linux/netlink.h usability... no
5528 666296 Race condition in g_thread_xp_get_srwlock
5529 666415 Settings tools should allow specifying a schema directory
5531 * Translations updated:
5535 Overview of changes from GLib 2.31.2 to 2.31.4
5536 ==============================================
5538 * EXPERIMENTAL: Menu support has been added to GApplication. Menus
5539 are exported on the bus, alongside the actions that are already there.
5540 There have also been many related improvements to action group
5543 These new APIs are subject to changes in the coming releases. In
5544 particular, it seems somewhat likely that the APIs for registering
5545 menubars may change in order to accommodate windows with different
5548 * GDBusConnection previously directly dispatched destroy notifies when
5549 unregistering objects if the current main context was the same context
5550 the object was exported on. It now unconditionally dispatches these
5551 through an idle on the context.
5553 * Clean up Requires in pc files. Linking against GIO no
5554 longer drags in gmodule. This may require dependency
5555 fixes here and there.
5557 * Introduce GBytes, a data type for immutable, fixed-size
5558 byte sequences. This makes the pre-existing GBuffer
5559 API available outside GLib
5561 * GDBusInterfaceSkeleton can now be exported on multiple

5595 Overview of changes from GLib 2.31.0 to 2.31.2
5596 ==============================================
5598 * Monotonic time is now properly supported on Windows
5600 * glib-mkenums: fix @ENUMPREFIX@ with /*< underscore_name=... >*/
5602 * EXPERIMENTAL: introduce new GSettingsSchema and GSettingsSchemaSource
5603 APIs for the convenience of plugin system authors and those who wish
5604 to introspect the contents of schemas. This API may change.
5606 * Improve the performance of GObject property notifies.
5609 - fix a race when unowning a name immediately after owning it
5610 - thread safety improvements on GDBusConnection
5611 - fixes for exit-on-close functionality
5614 - add G_SIGNAL_DEPRECATED
5615 - don't use G_DISABLE_DEPRECATED masking for functions anymore
5618 - tmpl/ is finally dead for glib
5621 - GInetAddressMask: new type for internet address range matching
5622 - various GIO file and stream fixes
5623 - improvements to attribute and fileinfo handling
5625 Overview of changes from GLib 2.29/2.30 to 2.31.0
5626 =================================================
5628 This release contains a huge number of changes (500 commits worth). The
5629 list below attempts to summarise, but not every change is listed.
5631 * Major changes to threading and synchronisation
5632 - threading is now always enabled in GLib
5633 - support for custom thread implementations (including our own internal
5634 support for errorcheck mutexes) has been removed
5635 - a whole lot of dead code (to deal with the non-threaded case) has
5636 been ripped out. This includes the racy path of GMainContext that
5637 caused deadlocks with respect to child process exits in
5638 single-threaded programs (such as gtester).
5639 - libgthread is now an empty shell and g_thread_init() is no longer
5640 required (and has been deprecated)
5641 - GMutex and GCond can now be statically allocated without explicit
5642 initialisation. Dynamic allocation for these types is deprecated.
5643 - new types GRecMutex and GRWLock can also be statically allocated
5644 without explicit initialisation.
5645 - GPrivate can now be statically allocated and has an improved API.
5646 Dynamic allocation of GPrivate is deprecated.
5647 - GStaticMutex, GStaticRecMutex, GStaticRwLock, GStaticPrivate are
5649 - GCond now uses monotonic time internally and a new API takes
5650 monotonic time for timed waits, deprecating the wallclock API
5651 - removal of the insane macro indirection used in the previous
5652 implementation of threading and synchronisation APIs
5653 - use SRWLock and CONDITION_VARIABLE APIs when available on Windows
5654 (Vista and later) and emulate them on XP
5655 - leaks of G(Static)Private-allocated data on some cases of thread exit
5657 - simplified new thread creation API with the old API deprecated. The
5658 concept of joinability has disappeared (all threads are joinable) as
5659 have priority levels, 'bound'ness (ie: kernel vs. userspace threads)
5660 and ability to manipulate the stack size.
5661 - GThread is now a refcounted type
5662 - other implementation details changed
5664 * Move headers for some deprecated functionality to a separate
5665 deprecated/ directory.
5667 * New support for attribute-based deprecations to issue compiler
5668 warnings instead of breaking the build and/or giving warnings about
5669 implicit declarations (and possibly miscompiling).
5671 * GCache has been deprecated (after its last use was removed from our
5672 platform over a year ago).
5674 * It is no longer possible to include individual headers (like
5675 "ghash.h") -- you must #include <glib.h>.
5677 * The misguided experiment of allowing the program to stumble along with
5678 missing GSettings schemas is now over -- the abort is back.
5680 * Clarify that fork() is not valid while using GMainContext. This is
5681 because the internal resources of the GMainContext end up being shared
5682 by both processes. We had an assert here but it was breaking existing
5683 (valid) use cases as well, so it has been removed for now.
5686 - add ::shutdown signal as logical dual to ::startup
5687 - don't use a GMainLoop: iterate the GMainContext directly (improves
5690 * Several portability fixes for Windows, OpenBSD, Solaris
5692 * Add new GValue API to specifically deal in signed chars (in case the
5693 platform defines 'char' as unsigned)
5695 * some new API to mitigate the problems associated with calling setenv()
5696 in a multi-threaded program
5698 * Use CLOCK_MONOTONIC unconditionally if the libc has support at compile
5699 time (ie: stop checking for kernel support at runtime).
5702 - drop -uninstalled variants
5703 - remove gobject dependency on gthread
5705 * New macro G_ATOMIC_LOCK_FREE is defined if the atomic operations are
5706 implemented without use of a mutex. Cleaned up atomic-related
5707 compilation issues with mingw compilers on win32 systems.
5709 * SOCKS proxy and resolver improvements
5711 * Fix the spelling of G_IO_FLAG_IS_WRITABLE (was WRITEABLE) and
5712 introduce a macro for backwards compatibility.
5715 - many code generation updates and improvements
5716 - some race condition fixes, including testcase hangs
5719 - new g_variant_new_from_fixed_array() API
5720 - substantial docs improvements/clarifications
5722 * GKeyFile is now refcounted and boxed
5724 * mount monitoring is now based on /proc/mounts (where available)
5727 * new macros G_SOURCE_CONTINUE and G_SOURCE_REMOVE for returning from
5728 GSourceFunc (so you don't have to remember what TRUE and FALSE mean)
5730 * use xlocale functions where available to avoid too much heavy lifting
5731 in functions like g_ascii_strtod()
5733 * GMappedFile can now be created from an fd
5735 * error message strings grammar/i18n fixes
5739 * Partial list of bugs closed:
5740 70598 Unify GStaticMutex and GMutex.

6165 Overview of changes from GLib 2.29.4 to 2.29.6
6166 ==============================================
6168 * Atomic operations have been rewritten from scratch to make use
6169 of gcc builtins where possible. As a side-effect of this, calls
6170 to g_atomic_ API with explicit casts may now be problematic; if
6171 that happens to you, try first to remove the casts. Another
6172 side-effect of the rewrite is that g_atomic_int_exchange_and_add
6173 has been deprecated in favor of g_atomic_int_add.
6175 * A full set of atomic operations on pointers has been added,
6176 including bit locks in pointer-size locations.
6178 * Access to quarks is now lockless
6180 * GObject data scalability has been greatly improved
6182 * g_data_time_format now supports alternative digits and padding
6184 * Introspection improvements:
6185 - Add a boxed type for GVariantBuilder
6186 - Annotation fixes in GDBus, GVariant, g_base64_

6233 * Updated translations:
6242 Overview of changes from GLib 2.29.2 to 2.29.4
6243 ==============================================
6246 - Includes several new types to support modeling D-Bus
6247 objects and interfaces more fully, and also introduces
6248 an 'object manager' pattern:
6249 GDBusInterface, GDBusObject, GDBusObjectManager
6250 These interfaces have client-side implementations:
6251 GDBusProxy, GDBusObjectProxy, GDBusObjectManagerClient
6252 And server-side implementations:
6253 GDBusInterfaceSkeleton, GDBusObjectSkeleton, GDBusObjectManagerServer
6254 - The new gdbus-codegen utility uses these new classes
6255 to generate C code and documentation from D-Bus interface
6259 - There is now a g_test_fail() function to mark
6263 - Now has a binding-friendly filename property
6264 - Other new API to more fully expose desktop file contents:
6265 g_desktop_app_info_get_categories(),
6266 g_desktop_app_info_get_generic_name()
6269 - Several optimizations to reduce space consumption of
6270 large hash tables, in particular tables that are used
6273 * Unix-specific APIs:
6274 GLib now installs a separate header, glib-unix.h, that is
6275 meant to collect Unix-specific APIs. For now, it contains
6276 g_unix_open_pipe(), g_unix_set_fd_non_blocking() for dealing
6277 with pipes and fds, as well as APIs to create mainloop
6278 sources which can trigger callbacks on certain Unix
6279 signals (SIGTERM, SIGHUP, SIGINT).

6294 647602 Cannot connect to remote message bus via TCP
6295 647746 The GSocketService documentation is incomplete.
6296 647826 API: gtester: Add g_test_fail()
6297 647903 GDesktopAppInfo: Add g_desktop_app_info_get_categories()
6298 648416 g_app_info_create_from_commandline ignores SUPPORTS_STARTUP_NOTIFICATION

6301 648966 Update g_unichar_iswide and g_unichar_iswide_cjk
6303 * Updated translations
6310 Overview of Changes from GLib 2.28.0 to 2.29.2
6311 ==============================================
6314 - The documentation has been enhanced and clarified
6315 - An opt-out for uniqueness has been added: G_APPLICATION_NON_UNIQUE
6316 - GApplication now syncs settings before g_application_run() returns
6319 - Interface lookups are now happening in constant time
6320 - Signature checking and handling of various unexpected
6321 situations has been improved
6324 - The format accepted by the GVariant parser has beend documented
6325 - GVariant accepts G_VARIANT_TYPE_VARDICT for a{sv}
6328 - The return value of g_datetime_compare() has been fixed to
6329 match strcmp() semantics
6330 - In order to handle problems with changing timezones, a GTimeZoneMonitor
6331 has been added to GIO, and g_time_zone_refresh_local() can be
6332 called to update the cached information about the local timezone
6334 * GOption now uses /proc/self/cmdline to set the program name instead
6335 and only falls back to "<unknown>" if that is unavailable
6338 - The schema compiler now warns about references to non-existing schemas
6340 * Commandline utilities are now fully translated
6342 * Signals can now indicate that collecting their arguments must
6343 always happen, even in the absence of connected signal handlers,
6344 using the G_SIGNAL_MUST_COLLECT flag.

6624 * The GTimeSpec type that was introduced in the 2.27.2 has been
6625 dropped again in favour of APIs that return microseconds as
6630 g_get_monotonic_time
6632 The similar GTimeVal struct is still around, but its use is
6635 * GTimer is now using monotonic time unconditionally
6637 * There are some new functions to facilitate error reporting
6639 g_simple_async_result_take_error
6640 g_simple_async_result_new_take_error
6641 g_simple_async_report_take_gerror_in_idle
6643 * There is new convenience API to us GVariant dictionaries:
6646 * It is now possible to delay sending match rules to the
6647 D-Bus daemon in GDBus:
6648 G_DBUS_SIGNAL_FLAGS_NO_MATCH_RULE
6650 * Support has been added for XDG_RUNTIME_DIR:
6651 g_get_user_runtime_dir

6670 Overview of Changes from GLib 2.27.1 to 2.27.2
6671 ==============================================
6674 - Export actions over DBus and support activating them from remote instances
6675 - Support environment passing
6678 - The gsettings utility has a list-recursively command
6679 - The gsettings utility has commandline completion for enum values
6681 * GLib is now linked against librt and uses monotonic time for
6682 timeouts and GPeriod sources. GSource has a new g_source_get_time()
6683 which returns monotonic time, and g_source_get_current_time() has
6687 158725 free linked list with data
6688 626320 GVariant: Avoid locking in g_variant_get_child_value() if possible

6697 633339 support more complex gapplication setups
6698 633356 Make timeout G_MAXINT mean "no timeout"
6700 * Translation updates:
6706 Overview of Changes from GLib 2.27.0 to 2.27.1
6707 ==============================================
6709 * GDateTime now has full week number support.
6710 New API: g_date_time_get_week_numbering_year
6712 * The GSettings schema compiler will now skip over
6713 broken .xml schema files instead of aborting altogether
6715 * GSettings now works properly on bigendian systems
6717 * GSettings has more complete support for ranges
6719 g_settings_get_range
6720 g_settings_range_check
6721 The gsettings commandline tool supports ranges too.
6723 * GApplication has been rewritten; see the API docs for details
6724 and examples. The action support is not complete yet.
6726 * The GLib mainloop has gained 'dispatch to context' functionality,
6727 which can replace manually created idles in many cases.
6729 g_main_context_invoke
6730 g_main_context_invoke_full
6732 * The gio-desktop-app-info-lookup extension point has been
6733 removed from GIO. GIO now uses x-scheme-handler mimetypes when
6734 looking for default applications.
6736 * On win32, make g_get_user_data_dir() return the CSIDL_LOCAL_APPDATA
6737 folder on Windows, and not CSIDL_PERSONAL. This matches what Qt does,
6738 and has been widely requested. Also make g_get_user_config_dir() return
6739 this and not the (roaming) CSIDL_APPDATA folder.

7000 +-------------------------------------------------------------------+
7001 | WARNING: There have been no breaks in API or ABI. Weird, eh? |
7002 +-------------------------------------------------------------------+
7004 The primary purpose of this release is to fix a serious problem with
7005 glib 2.25.12: glibconfig.h (as generated on a Fedora amd64 system) was
7006 being distributed in the tarball. It was being used to build some parts
7007 of glib on other systems (eg: 32bit ones). This was causing some very
7010 There have been many other improvements, however:
7013 - vastly improved test coverage
7014 - old tests moved to the gtester framework
7015 - gtester Makefile modified so that the tests only run once
7016 - cleanup of how we handle includes while building glib

7065 =====================================================
7067 +-------------------------------------------------------------------+
7068 | WARNING: There have been many API changes in GDBus -- sending |
7069 | messages, subscribing to signals, closing connections and |
7070 | registering subtrees are affected. The ABI for GSettingsBackend |
7071 | has also been changed. For both reasons, a new dconf release is |
7072 | required (and will be along soon). |
7073 +-------------------------------------------------------------------+
7076 - cleanup automake setup
7077 - rename configure.in to configure.ac
7078 - various docs fixups
7079 - move glibconfig.h to glib/

7097 - constness fixes for introspection structures
7098 - clean ups to subtree registration API
7101 - fix divide by zero bug in g_malloc_n functions

7133 Overview of Changes from GLib 2.25.10 to GLib 2.25.11
7134 =====================================================
7136 +-------------------------------------------------------------------+
7137 | WARNING: There have been minor API changes in GDBus and GVariant. |
7138 | These API changes will not affect many users, but they do require |
7139 | a new version of GTK+ to be installed. |
7140 +-------------------------------------------------------------------+
7143 - add a --disable-Bsymbolic configure flag to disable linking with
7144 -Bsymbolic-functions
7145 - this release sees the complete removal of the old 'g*alias' hacks
7146 - honour the NOCONFIGURE environment variable from autogen.sh
7147 - use proper feature test macros for isnan
7148 - use pkg-config to check for zlib
7149 - add ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS to Makefile.am
7152 - hide Class and instance structures for all GDBus types except
7153 GDBusProxy. This breaks API by preventing subclassing, but probably
7154 nobody was doing that.
7155 - add new GDBusConnection call to support flushing all pending
7157 - change the register_object API to add a reference to the
7158 GDBusInterfaceInfo object so the caller need not keep it alive
7160 - don't rewrite the serial number when sending messages that already
7161 have a serial number
7162 - better error checking for DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS environment
7164 - switch to g_parse_debug_string for G_DBUS_DEBUG and add a lot of new
7166 - add support for temporarily freezing a freshly created
7167 GDBusConnection. Do this until after the ::new-connection signal
7168 has finished running on GDBus services.
7169 - never require non-closed connections (the user is incapable of doing
7170 this due to the obvious race)
7171 - remove weird/misleading redundant check on NameOwnerChanged signal
7172 - emit GDBusProxy::g-properties-changed on NameOwnerChanged
7175 - the 'g_variant_{new,get}_byte_array' APIs have been removed
7176 - g_variant_{new,get,dup}_bytestring has been added, with different
7177 arguments and different behaviour
7178 - g_variant_{new,get,dup}_bytestring_array has been added, doing
7179 essentially the same thing as the 'strv' functions, but with byte
7180 strings instead of utf8 strings
7181 - G_VARIANT_TYPE_BYTESTRING ('ay'), BYTESTRING_ARRAY ('aay') and
7182 STRING_ARRAY ('as') constants have been added
7183 - the undocumented behaviour that g_variant_get_strv() deserialised
7184 arrays of object paths or signature strings has been dropped
7185 - additional varargs support for converting bytestrings or bytestring
7186 arrays with ^ay ^aay ^&ay and ^a&ay
7187 - improved gobject-introspection annotation
7188 - fix a problem with GBuffer calling g_slice_free for the wrong type
7189 - fix leaks in the type inferencing code of the parser
7192 - improved documentation
7193 - updated schema XML DTD, now xincluded into the docs
7194 - added support for schemas that extend other schemas (using the
7195 'extends=' attribute). Values of keys in the base schema can be
7196 overridden using <override>.
7197 - added theoretical support for lists (using the 'list-of=' attribute)
7199 - add support for flags (implemented similarly to enums)
7200 - add support for generating .enums.xml files to gsettings.m4:
7201 gsettings_ENUM_NAMESPACE = org.example.myapp
7202 gsettings_ENUM_FILES = ../path/to/*.h
7203 will generate org.example.myapp.enums.xml with mappings for all
7204 enums and flags in the specified .h files.
7205 - warn with g_message() if the 'memory' backend is used by default
7206 (ie: because no other GSettings backends are installed)
7207 - fix get_property() for GSettings::schema
7208 - command line tool: fix a bug that prevented non-basic values from
7209 being set due to a premature free
7210 - command line tool: bash completion support
7211 - chain up in _finalize
7212 - add a new g_settings_get_mapped API to read settings that require
7214 - retry with the translated or schema default value if the
7215 GSettingsBindGetMapping function fails
7216 - schema compiler: never fail due to empty schema directories (but
7218 - peek rather than ref/unref the GEnumClass in the mapping function
7219 - schema compiler: compile *.enums.xml before *.gschemas.xml to ensure
7220 that we have all the enums that the schemas may reference
7221 - schema compiler: improve accuracy of line numbers in error reports
7222 - fix crashes in the keyfile backend caused by invalid group names in
7226 - always intern GBinding prop names
7227 - base64: remove asserts preventing conversion of empty strings
7228 - document NULL special-cases for GValueArray
7229 - GNode docs improvements
7230 - improve detection of 'system internal' mounts
7231 - fix leaks in the inotify GFileMonitor implementation
7232 - annotate all custom GIO GSources to improve debugging (e.g. using
7236 - Turn on glibc malloc checking features for make check
7237 - improvements for GSettings tests, plus new tests
7238 - improved tests for GKeyfile
7239 - new tests for GDir, GSList, GSList, GAppLaunchContext,
7240 CharsetConverter, GIcon, ...
7241 - move some tests to GTester (tree tests, uri tests)
7242 - generally, really an awful lot of new tests
7243 - don't try to allocate 2gigs of memory anymore for the array test
7245 552363 g_value_array_{insert,prepend,append}'s special cases for NULL
7246 561248 Improve return value description from g_node_prev/next_sibling()
7247 570036 Add ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS to Makefile.am
7248 576833 g_sprintf add a reference to g_strdup_printf
7249 576854 g_strconcat() documentation should provide a hint about bad l10n
7250 582227 reference: add other URI functions to 'URI Functions' section
7251 599223 should provide g_spawn_* variants that take a GAppLaunchContext
7252 610784 array test failing

7936 ===================================================
7939 - GConverter: a generic interface for stateful conversions of data,
7940 suitable for charset conversion, compression, decompression, regexp
7941 replacement. Concrete implementations are GCharsetConverter,
7942 GZlibCompressor and GZlibDecompressor. GConverterInputStream,
7943 GConverterOutputStream are stream implementations that convert data
7944 while loading or saving it.
7945 - GMounts can now have a 'default location': a path that reflects
7946 the main entry point for the user (e.g. the home directory).
7947 - As a consequence of the compression support, GIO depends on zlib now.
7950 - G_IMPLEMENT_INTERFACE_DYNAMIC: a convenience macro for adding
7951 interfaces to dynamic types.
7954 - The -pthread flag has been added to all gmodule .pc files, because
7955 it is not generally permissible to load modules that are linked
7956 against libpthread if the program has not been compiled with threading

10274 been added to allow GAsyncQueue to be used as a priority
10275 queue, together with the corresponding _unlocked
10276 variants [Martyn Russell]
10279 - The concept of a floating initial reference has been
10280 moved from GtkObject to GObject [Tim]

10308 =================================================
10310 - The Unicode tables have been updated to Unicode 4.1,
10311 adding several new values to the GUnicodeBreakType
10312 enumeration. This breaks Pango <= 1.10
10314 - The various Unicode character predicate functions
10315 (g_unichar_isalpha, g_unichar_isdigit,...) have
10318 - g_utf8_pointer_to_offset, g_utf8_offset_to_pointer:
10319 These functions handle negative offsets now, and
10320 going backwards in g_utf8_offset_to_pointer uses
10321 "stutter stepping".
10322 [Larry Ewing, Matthias Clasen]
10324 * Memory management:
10325 - Mem chunks are no longer used internally in GLib and
10326 GObject. GMemChunk will be deprecated in GLib 2.10
10327 - All APIs based on GAllocator (g_list_push/pop_allocator,
10328 and similar push/pop_allocator functions for other
10329 data structures) have been deprecated, since they
10330 never worked as intended.
10331 - The g_slice_* functions have been added as a
10332 new API for fast allocation of small memory blocks.
10333 The implementation in GLib 2.9.0 is just a simple
10334 wrapper around malloc. GLib 2.10 will have an
10335 efficient and scalable implementation.
10336 [Tim Janik, Matthias]
10338 * Pattern matching:
10339 - g_pattern_match has been optimized to avoid
10340 unnecessary recursion.
10343 * g_intern_string, g_intern_static_string:
10344 - New functions to intern strings. These are now used
10345 by GObject to avoid duplicating static strings
10348 * g_thread_foreach:
10349 - New function to iterate over all GThreads
10352 * g_date_set_time_t, g_date_set_time_val:
10353 - New functions to set a GDate from a time_t or
10354 GTimeVal value. g_date_set_time has been deprecated
10358 * g_snprintf and g_vsnprintf:
10359 - These functions are no longer declared in gprintf.h,
10360 since they are in glib.h
