3 * === Released 2.7.1 ===
5 2005-06-30 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
7 * gmodule-ar.c: Include stdlib.h
9 2005-06-26 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
11 * Makefile.am: libtool installs/uninstalls the import library, no
12 need to do it ourselves. Do still install/uninstall the .def file,
15 2005-06-24 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
17 * Makefile.am (install-libtool-import-lib): Current GNU tools do
18 understand the PRIVATE keyword.
20 2005-06-10 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
22 * === Released 2.7.0 ===
24 2005-01-07 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
26 * === Released 2.6.1 ===
28 2004-12-31 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
30 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): It's wrong to call g_file_test() with
31 more than one test (both G_FILE_TEST_EXISTS and _IS_REGULAR). (It
32 would succeed even if the pathname existed as a nonregular file.)
33 Just G_FILE_TEST_IS_REGULAR works fine. (#162594)
35 2004-12-16 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
37 * === Released 2.6.0 ===
39 2004-12-06 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
43 * gmodule.[hc]: Win32 DLL ABI stability cruft like in ../glib.

47 * === Released 2.5.7 ===
49 2004-11-12 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
51 * === Released 2.5.6 ===
53 2004-11-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
55 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_open): Argument is in UTF-8. Use wide
56 character Win32 API if present.
58 * gmodule.c (parse_libtool_archive, g_module_open): Convert file
59 name to UTF-8 before storing in the error message string.
61 * gmodule.c (parse_libtool_archive): Use g_open().

85 * === Released 2.5.0 ===
87 Mon May 31 00:09:10 2004 Matthias Clasen <maclas@gmx.de>

91 Tue May 11 23:23:21 2004 Matthias Clasen <maclas@gmx.de>
93 * gmodule-ar.c (_g_module_open): Make it compile on AIX.
94 (#141159, Michael Wilson)
96 2004-03-31 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
98 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path): On Cygwin, use the "cyg"
99 prefix, and accept also the normal "lib". (#138403, Roger Leigh)
101 Tue Feb 24 14:09:21 2004 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
103 * === Released 2.3.3 ===
105 Sun Feb 22 02:28:43 2004 Matthias Clasen <maclas@gmx.de>
107 Bug #85930, Laurent Vivier:
109 * gmodule-ar.c: Implementation of native module management for AIX.
111 * gmodule.c: Support gmodule-ar.c
113 2003-01-01 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
115 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path): Use g_ascii_strcasecmp().
117 Tue Dec 3 20:56:19 2002 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
119 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): Properly refcount the
120 main module if it is already open. (#98648)
122 Sat Mar 2 14:46:17 2002 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
124 * gmodule-beos.c (_g_module_build_path) * gmodule-dyld.c (_g_module_build_path)
125 gmodule-dl.c (_g_module_build_path): Use G_MODULE_SUFFIX rather than
126 a hardcoded ".so". (#72803)
128 Sun Feb 17 18:15:22 2002 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
130 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): Fix typo when checking
131 if file + module_suffix exists. (Miroslaw Dobrzanski-Neumann,
134 2001-11-24 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
136 * Makefile.am: Remove rule for testgmodule.exp, too.
138 2001-11-22 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
140 * gmodule-win32.c: Current w32api headers do include tlhelp32.h,
141 so no need to have an extract from it here.
143 Mon Nov 19 16:12:12 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
145 * Makefile.am makefile.msc.in makefile.mingw.in: Remove
146 testgmodule and associated plugin files; we don't need _both_ this
147 and ../tests/module-test.c
149 2001-11-16 Michael Meeks <michael@ximian.com>
151 * gmodule.c (parse_libtool_archive): fix leak.
153 2001-10-30 Dan Winship <danw@ximian.com>
155 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add gmodule-dyld.c
157 2001-10-23 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
159 * Makefile.am: (Win32): If we have built the MSVC import library,
160 install it. Install the gcc import library. Also support
163 2001-10-09 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
165 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path): More Unix compatibility:
166 Add "lib" prefix in case the module name doesn't already have it,
167 except if it ends with ".dll" (in which case it probably already
168 is the name of an existing DLL). This is needed for instance for
169 the gdk-pixbuf loaders, which are called "lib*.dll", but
170 gdk-pixbuf-io calls g_module_build_path without the "lib" prefix.
172 2001-10-03 jacob berkman <jacob@ximian.com>
174 * libgplugin_a.c: (gplugin_a_module_func):
175 * gmodule.h: s/retrive/retrieve/
177 2001-09-25 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
179 * makefile.mingw.in: Fix missing end @ in @LT_CURRENT@.
181 * makefile.msc.in: Use same DLL and import library names as
184 2001-09-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
186 * gmodule.rc.in: Correct InternalName and OriginalFilename to
187 match what we actually produce.
189 2001-09-18 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
191 * Makefile.am: On Win32, pass a dummy -rpath flag to libtool when
192 building libgplugin_[ab].la, otherwise libtool doesn't create a
193 DLL, but a static archive.
195 2001-07-20 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>
197 * makefile.msc.in : reflect glib move
199 2001-05-21 Mark Murnane <Mark.Murnane@ireland.sun.com>
201 * gmodule.c (g_str_check_suffix): Modified type of string_len
202 and suffix_len to be gsize. Properly accommodates return from
205 2001-05-29 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
207 * gmodule.c (g_module_set_error_unduped): Do not g_strdup, as
208 promised in the function name.
210 Tue May 29 12:57:51 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
212 * gmodule.c (g_module_symbol): erk, strconcat needs NULL as last arg.
213 make sure we pass module name with suffix into backend open.
215 Mon May 28 20:19:25 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
217 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): as a last resort, if we can't access()
218 the module, leave it up to the platform backends to find it.
219 (fixes implicit search patch loading i broke with my last
220 commit, spotted by Padraig O'Briain).
222 Thu May 24 03:43:12 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
224 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): reordered code so we have a single
225 module loading point (for reliable error messages). do access()
226 tests to figure plausible file names.
227 make error messages more verbose so users canfigure what's going on.
229 2001-04-20 Dan Winship <danw@ximian.com>
231 * gmodule-dyld.c: gmodule implementation for Darwin/Mac OS X
234 * gmoduleconf.h.in: Add gmodule-dyld support
236 * testgmodule.c (main): Fix spelling
238 2001-03-13 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
240 From Edward M. Lee <tailbert@yahoo.com>:
242 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path): use (cygwin friendly) dir
245 2001-03-12 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
247 * Makefile.am (libgplugin_a_la_LIBADD, libgplugin_b_la_LIBADD):
248 Link with the libgmodule la only on Win32.
250 2001-03-10 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
252 * Makefile.am: Use the _LIBADD dependency on libglib only on the
253 Win32 platform (including Cygwin).
255 2001-03-07 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
257 * Makefile.am, makefile.mingw.in, makefile.msc.in: Set
258 G_LOG_DOMAIN to \"GModule\" instead of g_log_domain_gmodule.
260 * gmodule.def, gmodule.h, gmodule.c: Removed g_log_domain_gmodule.
262 2001-02-21 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
264 * gmodule.h: Use G_BEGIN_DECLS and G_END_DECLS. Define
265 G_MODULE_EXPORT correctly on Cygwin, too.
267 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_open): Convert path to Windows format
270 * Makefile.am (libglib): Use libglib-1.3.la from
271 top_builddir. Invoke libtool with -no-undefined for Win32 and
274 2001-02-17 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>
276 Applied patch from Soeren Sandmann:
278 * gmodule.c (g_module_error): G_CONST_RETURN
279 (g_module_name): G_CONST_RETURN
281 Sat Feb 17 07:27:15 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
283 * gmodule.c: work around platforms that have broken RTLD_GLOBAL.
285 2001-01-27 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
287 * gmodule.c: (Win32) Need <io.h> for open() and close().
289 2000-12-22 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
291 * gmodule.c: Make g_module_open more tolerant wrt to the module
292 name. First it tries to open the module as named, if that fails,
293 it checks, whether it is a libtool archive and parses it, if that
294 fails it appends the systems shared library suffix
295 (i.e. ".so") (if not already found) and tries again and if that
296 fails it tries to append the ".la" libtool suffix (if not already
297 found) and parses it.
299 * gmodule.c: Lock recursive mutex during most module functions for
302 * gmodule-dl.c: Return an error from _g_module_symbol only, if
303 dlerror says so. All other functions return an error as well, if
304 dlerror returns NULL.
306 * testgmodule.c: Thanks to the above change the #ifdefs have
309 2000-10-15 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
311 * Makefile.am (BUILT_EXTRA_DIST): New variable.
312 (dist-hook): Handle $(BUILT_EXTRA_DIST).
314 2000-09-28 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
316 * gmodule.h: Moved declaration of g_log_domain_gmodule up before
317 the inclusion of glib.h to make it compile on non-gcc compilers.
319 2000-07-22 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
321 * makefile.mingw.in: Remove leftover gmodule-win32res.o stuff. The
322 build-dll script automagically handles resources.
324 2000-07-20 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
326 * libgplugin_a.c, testgmodule.c: Use g_path_get_basename instead
327 of the deprecated g_basename.
329 2000-07-19 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
331 * gmodule.h: include glib.h before doing extern "C". Makes some C++
332 compiler happy. Reported by Denis Vakatov
333 <vakatov@peony.nlm.nih.gov>.
335 2000-07-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
337 * gmodule-win32.c: Don't #include <tlhelp32.h> when compiling with
338 gcc, as it isn't provided. Declaration of a needed struct (from
339 www.microsoft.com) inserted instead.
341 2000-05-13 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
343 * makefile.mingw.in: New file, with gmodule stuff
344 moved from ../makefile.mingw.in.
346 * Makefile.am: Add to EXTRA_DIST, and add rule to make makefile.mingw.
348 2000-05-02 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
350 * gmodule-win32.c: No need to include <psapi.h>
352 2000-03-23 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
354 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_symbol): When looking for symbols in
355 the "main" module we must search both the main program and all
356 currently loaded DLLs. Not only the main program, or even just the
357 DLLs loaded as gmodules. Libglade requires this.
359 Thus we need to get a list of all modules in the current
360 process. There are two alternative APIs to do this: PSAPI and
361 Toolhelp. The former is only available on NT (including Win2k),
362 the latter on Win9x and Win2k. Check which one works, and use
365 First check for the symbol in the main program, and if not found
366 there, in all the modules.
368 Code for using PSAPI and Toolhelp was borrowed from the Dr. Mingw
369 tool written by José Fonseca <em96115@fe.up.pt>. Thanks.
371 2000-03-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
373 * gmodule-win32.c: Call g_win32_error_message() to get the error
378 * gmodule.c: Remove LibMain functions that were needed by LCC,
379 which is not a supported compiler.
381 * testgmodule.c (main): Test for G_MODULE_IMPL ==
382 G_MODULE_IMPL_WIN32, not G_OS_WIN32.
384 * gmoduleconf.h.win32: Remove LCC stuff from here, too.
386 Wed Mar 1 05:34:47 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
388 * gmodule-beos.c (_g_module_symbol): do not return NULL symbols.
390 * gmodule-os2.c: removed NetBSD specific defines.
391 (_g_module_self): set an error message for unsupported behaviour.
393 * gmodule-beos.c: many coding style fixups.
397 (_g_module_symbol): bunch of memory leaks plugged.
399 * gmodule-dl.c: make sure the error message returned from dlerror()
400 is always != NULL, by using a wrapper function fetch_dlerror(). based
401 on a patch to fix _g_module_symbol() for NetBSD from Scott Presnell
404 * gmodule-dld.c: minor indentation.
406 * gmodule-win32.c: minor cleanups.
408 * merges from glib-1-2.
410 Sat Feb 19 19:43:29 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
412 * testgmodule.c (main): added test to check that not yet bound symbols
413 in shared libraries of the main module are retrievable, from David Gero.
415 2000-01-13 Martin Baulig <martin@home-of-linux.org>
417 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): Check whether `check_init' is not NULL
418 before we attempt to call it.
420 Sun Oct 3 19:30:52 PDT 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
423 * testgmodule.c: use G_OS stuff
425 Sat Jul 24 20:47:18 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
427 * merged changes from GLib-1-2 branch.
429 1999-05-06 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
431 * gmodule.c: Remove LibMain.
433 Sat May 1 10:58:57 PDT 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
435 * Makefile.am: use -avoid-version and -module for test plugins
437 Mon Apr 19 08:43:59 1999 ape@lrdpf.spacetec.no (Asbjorn Pettersen)
439 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add gmodule-os2.c
441 Wed Apr 7 20:12:58 1999 ape@lrdpf.spacetec.no (Asbjorn Pettersen)
443 * gmodule-os2.c: OS/2 specific file for gmodule.
444 * gmodule.c (_g_module_open): Add gmodule-os2.c if G_MODULE_IMPL_OS2.
445 * gmoduleconf.h.in: Add G_MODULE_IMPL_OS2.
447 Fri Apr 23 09:03:48 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
449 * gmodule.c (g_module_symbol): removed inline variable assignment.
450 s/CHECK_ERROR/SUPPORT_OR_RETURN/ to make the code more self descriptive.
452 Wed Feb 10 12:06:30 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
454 * gmodule.c (CHECK_ERROR): be more descriptive on unsupported systems.
456 Wed Feb 10 07:56:33 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
458 * gmodule.c (g_module_error): fixed errernerous code wrt to thread
459 specific error string allocation handling.
461 Thu Jan 21 12:40:11 EST 1999 Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
463 * gmodule-dl.c (_g_module_build_path):
464 Add braces to eliminate an ambiguous else warning.
466 1999-01-16 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
468 * gmodule-dl.c gmodule-dld.c: In
469 _g_module_build_path, don't add the "lib" prefix and
470 ".so" or ".sl" suffix if already there.
472 * gmodule-win32.c: Likewise for the ".dll" suffix.
474 1998-12-10 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
476 * gmodule.c: Made it MT safe, the g_module_error() is now thread
479 Fri Nov 20 14:43:44 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
481 * gmodule.c (_g_module_build_path): added empty default imlementation
482 so gmodule.so compiles on systems that are not yet supported, fix from
483 Erik Bagfors <bagfors@hpc2n.umu.se>.
485 1998-11-13 Nuno Ferreira <nmrf@rnl.ist.utl.pt>
487 * Makefile.am (INCLUDES): The previous commit message is wrong
488 about the -I$(top_srcdir) being redundant. I put it back.
490 Wed Nov 11 23:23:22 EST 1998 Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
492 * Makefile.am : INCLUDES is the right way to add to CFLAGS, not
493 DEFS. Also there are bugs with '+=' in makefiles.
494 Got rid of DEFS line by moving G_LOG_DOMAIN setting into INCLUDES.
495 Removed redundant -I from INCLUDES.
497 Tue Oct 27 04:00:11 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
499 * testgmodule.c (main): changed the #ifdef WIN32 test to NATIVE_WIN32,
500 this needs to be more constistent throughout the code, do we go for
501 NATIVE_WIN32 or WIN32?
503 * gmodule.c (LibMain): special cased the #ifdef __LCC__ case for
504 NATIVE_WIN32, since lcc maybe used on other platforms as well.
505 * libgplugin_a.c (LibMain):
506 * libgplugin_b.c (LibMain):
507 likewise. not sure i like this special requirement for lcc in here.
509 * gmodule-dl.c (_g_module_build_path):
510 feature empty "" directories and prepend the module name with "lib".
512 * gmodule-dld.c (_g_module_build_path):
513 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path):
514 feature empty "" directories.
516 * we need some more magic in the _g_module_build_path variants
517 so we don't append/prepend lib and .so, .sl or .dll for those names
518 that already contain it.
520 * applied patch from Tor Lillqvist for g_module_build_path() and
523 1998-10-20: Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
525 * gmodule/gmodule-win32.c:
528 * gmodule/gmodule.c gmodule/gmodule.h:
529 Added the funcion g_module_build_path that builds the path to
530 a module file, decorating the name according to the system's
531 conventions. Added the Windows implementation.
533 * gmodule/libgplugin_a.c gmodule/libgplugin_b.c:
534 Added LibMain for LCC-Win32.
536 * gmodule/testgmodule.c:
537 Handle Windows dll names.
539 1998-10-25 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
541 * gmodule.h: Remove `#pragma }'.
542 * gmoduleconf.h.in: Likewise.
544 Wed Oct 21 19:58:27 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
546 * gmodule.c (g_module_symbol): fixed a string pointer bug that could
547 cause garbage error messages from g_module_symbol() for systems that
550 Mon Sep 21 01:54:48 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
553 * gmodule.c: renamed old _de_init functionality to _unload.
554 modules are now expected to export:
555 G_MODULE_EXPORT const gchar* g_module_check_init (GModule *module);
557 G_MODULE_EXPORT void g_module_unload (GModule *module);
558 returning a string other than NULL from g_module_check_init() will
559 prevent the module from being loaded. a call to g_module_make_resident()
560 from g_module_unload() will prevent the module from being unloaded and
561 still make it resident.
563 Thu Sep 17 06:34:22 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
566 * gmodule.c: implemented g_module_make_resident() which can be
567 used to make modules resident.
568 fixed a buglet about the optional "g_module_de_init" function in
569 modules, which could get invoked twice on very obscure occasions.
571 Tue Sep 15 14:57:30 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
573 * Makefile.am: Update to libtool-1.2b,
574 change library versioning scheme to drop LT_RELEASE
575 from the -l line, while keeping it in the soname.
577 Thu Aug 20 07:08:16 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
579 * gmodule.c: provide no operation implementation for the underlying
580 _g_module_* functions, so we at least compile on systems that have
581 neither of G_MODULE_IMPL_DL or G_MODULE_IMPL_DLD.

586 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): changed the return type for the
587 GModuleCheckInit function to be a string, describing the error
589 (g_module_symbol): show the failing symbol on error messages.

593 * Makefile.am: feature the G_LOG_DOMAIN macro to set the log domain
594 to "GModule" upon compilation. we currently have to add this definition

610 * Makefile.am (lib_LTLIBRARIES): for now, skip the dependency on
611 -lglib for libgmodule-1.1.la, libgplugin_a.la and libgplugin_b.la

613 libraries. glib-config takes care of this for the usuall case, but
614 there needs to be a better way...

618 * testgmodule.c: test program for GModule.
620 * libgplugin_b.c: test plugins for testgmodule.c.
