3 * === Released 2.6.1 ===
5 2004-12-31 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
7 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): It's wrong to call g_file_test() with
8 more than one test (both G_FILE_TEST_EXISTS and _IS_REGULAR). (It
9 would succeed even if the pathname existed as a nonregular file.)
10 Just G_FILE_TEST_IS_REGULAR works fine. (#162594)

14 * === Released 2.6.0 ===
16 2004-12-06 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>

28 * === Released 2.5.6 ===
30 2004-11-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
32 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_open): Argument is in UTF-8. Use wide
33 character Win32 API if present.
35 * gmodule.c (parse_libtool_archive, g_module_open): Convert file
36 name to UTF-8 before storing in the error message string.
38 * gmodule.c (parse_libtool_archive): Use g_open().

62 * === Released 2.5.0 ===
64 Mon May 31 00:09:10 2004 Matthias Clasen <maclas@gmx.de>
66 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add gmodule-ar.c. (#85930, Tomas Ă–gren)

71 (#141159, Michael Wilson)
73 2004-03-31 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
75 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path): On Cygwin, use the "cyg"
76 prefix, and accept also the normal "lib". (#138403, Roger Leigh)
78 Tue Feb 24 14:09:21 2004 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
80 * === Released 2.3.3 ===
82 Sun Feb 22 02:28:43 2004 Matthias Clasen <maclas@gmx.de>
84 Bug #85930, Laurent Vivier:
86 * gmodule-ar.c: Implementation of native module management for AIX.
88 * gmodule.c: Support gmodule-ar.c
90 2003-01-01 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
92 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path): Use g_ascii_strcasecmp().
94 Tue Dec 3 20:56:19 2002 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
96 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): Properly refcount the
97 main module if it is already open. (#98648)
99 Sat Mar 2 14:46:17 2002 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
101 * gmodule-beos.c (_g_module_build_path) * gmodule-dyld.c (_g_module_build_path)
102 gmodule-dl.c (_g_module_build_path): Use G_MODULE_SUFFIX rather than
103 a hardcoded ".so". (#72803)
105 Sun Feb 17 18:15:22 2002 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
107 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): Fix typo when checking
108 if file + module_suffix exists. (Miroslaw Dobrzanski-Neumann,
111 2001-11-24 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
113 * Makefile.am: Remove rule for testgmodule.exp, too.
115 2001-11-22 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
117 * gmodule-win32.c: Current w32api headers do include tlhelp32.h,
118 so no need to have an extract from it here.
120 Mon Nov 19 16:12:12 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
122 * Makefile.am makefile.msc.in makefile.mingw.in: Remove
123 testgmodule and associated plugin files; we don't need _both_ this
124 and ../tests/module-test.c
126 2001-11-16 Michael Meeks <michael@ximian.com>
128 * gmodule.c (parse_libtool_archive): fix leak.
130 2001-10-30 Dan Winship <danw@ximian.com>
132 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add gmodule-dyld.c
134 2001-10-23 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
136 * Makefile.am: (Win32): If we have built the MSVC import library,
137 install it. Install the gcc import library. Also support
140 2001-10-09 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
142 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path): More Unix compatibility:
143 Add "lib" prefix in case the module name doesn't already have it,
144 except if it ends with ".dll" (in which case it probably already
145 is the name of an existing DLL). This is needed for instance for
146 the gdk-pixbuf loaders, which are called "lib*.dll", but
147 gdk-pixbuf-io calls g_module_build_path without the "lib" prefix.
149 2001-10-03 jacob berkman <jacob@ximian.com>
151 * libgplugin_a.c: (gplugin_a_module_func):
152 * gmodule.h: s/retrive/retrieve/
154 2001-09-25 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
156 * makefile.mingw.in: Fix missing end @ in @LT_CURRENT@.
158 * makefile.msc.in: Use same DLL and import library names as
161 2001-09-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
163 * gmodule.rc.in: Correct InternalName and OriginalFilename to
164 match what we actually produce.
166 2001-09-18 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
168 * Makefile.am: On Win32, pass a dummy -rpath flag to libtool when
169 building libgplugin_[ab].la, otherwise libtool doesn't create a
170 DLL, but a static archive.
172 2001-07-20 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>
174 * makefile.msc.in : reflect glib move
176 2001-05-21 Mark Murnane <Mark.Murnane@ireland.sun.com>
178 * gmodule.c (g_str_check_suffix): Modified type of string_len
179 and suffix_len to be gsize. Properly accommodates return from
182 2001-05-29 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
184 * gmodule.c (g_module_set_error_unduped): Do not g_strdup, as
185 promised in the function name.
187 Tue May 29 12:57:51 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
189 * gmodule.c (g_module_symbol): erk, strconcat needs NULL as last arg.
190 make sure we pass module name with suffix into backend open.
192 Mon May 28 20:19:25 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
194 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): as a last resort, if we can't access()
195 the module, leave it up to the platform backends to find it.
196 (fixes implicit search patch loading i broke with my last
197 commit, spotted by Padraig O'Briain).
199 Thu May 24 03:43:12 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
201 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): reordered code so we have a single
202 module loading point (for reliable error messages). do access()
203 tests to figure plausible file names.
204 make error messages more verbose so users canfigure what's going on.
206 2001-04-20 Dan Winship <danw@ximian.com>
208 * gmodule-dyld.c: gmodule implementation for Darwin/Mac OS X
211 * gmoduleconf.h.in: Add gmodule-dyld support
213 * testgmodule.c (main): Fix spelling
215 2001-03-13 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
217 From Edward M. Lee <tailbert@yahoo.com>:
219 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path): use (cygwin friendly) dir
222 2001-03-12 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
224 * Makefile.am (libgplugin_a_la_LIBADD, libgplugin_b_la_LIBADD):
225 Link with the libgmodule la only on Win32.
227 2001-03-10 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
229 * Makefile.am: Use the _LIBADD dependency on libglib only on the
230 Win32 platform (including Cygwin).
232 2001-03-07 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
234 * Makefile.am, makefile.mingw.in, makefile.msc.in: Set
235 G_LOG_DOMAIN to \"GModule\" instead of g_log_domain_gmodule.
237 * gmodule.def, gmodule.h, gmodule.c: Removed g_log_domain_gmodule.
239 2001-02-21 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
241 * gmodule.h: Use G_BEGIN_DECLS and G_END_DECLS. Define
242 G_MODULE_EXPORT correctly on Cygwin, too.
244 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_open): Convert path to Windows format
247 * Makefile.am (libglib): Use libglib-1.3.la from
248 top_builddir. Invoke libtool with -no-undefined for Win32 and
251 2001-02-17 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>
253 Applied patch from Soeren Sandmann:
255 * gmodule.c (g_module_error): G_CONST_RETURN
256 (g_module_name): G_CONST_RETURN
258 Sat Feb 17 07:27:15 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
260 * gmodule.c: work around platforms that have broken RTLD_GLOBAL.
262 2001-01-27 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
264 * gmodule.c: (Win32) Need <io.h> for open() and close().
266 2000-12-22 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
268 * gmodule.c: Make g_module_open more tolerant wrt to the module
269 name. First it tries to open the module as named, if that fails,
270 it checks, whether it is a libtool archive and parses it, if that
271 fails it appends the systems shared library suffix
272 (i.e. ".so") (if not already found) and tries again and if that
273 fails it tries to append the ".la" libtool suffix (if not already
274 found) and parses it.
276 * gmodule.c: Lock recursive mutex during most module functions for
279 * gmodule-dl.c: Return an error from _g_module_symbol only, if
280 dlerror says so. All other functions return an error as well, if
281 dlerror returns NULL.
283 * testgmodule.c: Thanks to the above change the #ifdefs have
286 2000-10-15 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
288 * Makefile.am (BUILT_EXTRA_DIST): New variable.
289 (dist-hook): Handle $(BUILT_EXTRA_DIST).
291 2000-09-28 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
293 * gmodule.h: Moved declaration of g_log_domain_gmodule up before
294 the inclusion of glib.h to make it compile on non-gcc compilers.
296 2000-07-22 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
298 * makefile.mingw.in: Remove leftover gmodule-win32res.o stuff. The
299 build-dll script automagically handles resources.
301 2000-07-20 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
303 * libgplugin_a.c, testgmodule.c: Use g_path_get_basename instead
304 of the deprecated g_basename.
306 2000-07-19 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
308 * gmodule.h: include glib.h before doing extern "C". Makes some C++
309 compiler happy. Reported by Denis Vakatov
310 <vakatov@peony.nlm.nih.gov>.
312 2000-07-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
314 * gmodule-win32.c: Don't #include <tlhelp32.h> when compiling with
315 gcc, as it isn't provided. Declaration of a needed struct (from
316 www.microsoft.com) inserted instead.
318 2000-05-13 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
320 * makefile.mingw.in: New file, with gmodule stuff
321 moved from ../makefile.mingw.in.
323 * Makefile.am: Add to EXTRA_DIST, and add rule to make makefile.mingw.
325 2000-05-02 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
327 * gmodule-win32.c: No need to include <psapi.h>
329 2000-03-23 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
331 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_symbol): When looking for symbols in
332 the "main" module we must search both the main program and all
333 currently loaded DLLs. Not only the main program, or even just the
334 DLLs loaded as gmodules. Libglade requires this.
336 Thus we need to get a list of all modules in the current
337 process. There are two alternative APIs to do this: PSAPI and
338 Toolhelp. The former is only available on NT (including Win2k),
339 the latter on Win9x and Win2k. Check which one works, and use
342 First check for the symbol in the main program, and if not found
343 there, in all the modules.
345 Code for using PSAPI and Toolhelp was borrowed from the Dr. Mingw
346 tool written by José Fonseca <em96115@fe.up.pt>. Thanks.
348 2000-03-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
350 * gmodule-win32.c: Call g_win32_error_message() to get the error
355 * gmodule.c: Remove LibMain functions that were needed by LCC,
356 which is not a supported compiler.
358 * testgmodule.c (main): Test for G_MODULE_IMPL ==
359 G_MODULE_IMPL_WIN32, not G_OS_WIN32.
361 * gmoduleconf.h.win32: Remove LCC stuff from here, too.
363 Wed Mar 1 05:34:47 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
365 * gmodule-beos.c (_g_module_symbol): do not return NULL symbols.
367 * gmodule-os2.c: removed NetBSD specific defines.
368 (_g_module_self): set an error message for unsupported behaviour.
370 * gmodule-beos.c: many coding style fixups.
374 (_g_module_symbol): bunch of memory leaks plugged.
376 * gmodule-dl.c: make sure the error message returned from dlerror()
377 is always != NULL, by using a wrapper function fetch_dlerror(). based
378 on a patch to fix _g_module_symbol() for NetBSD from Scott Presnell
381 * gmodule-dld.c: minor indentation.
383 * gmodule-win32.c: minor cleanups.
385 * merges from glib-1-2.
387 Sat Feb 19 19:43:29 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
389 * testgmodule.c (main): added test to check that not yet bound symbols
390 in shared libraries of the main module are retrievable, from David Gero.
392 2000-01-13 Martin Baulig <martin@home-of-linux.org>
394 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): Check whether `check_init' is not NULL
395 before we attempt to call it.
397 Sun Oct 3 19:30:52 PDT 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
400 * testgmodule.c: use G_OS stuff
402 Sat Jul 24 20:47:18 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
404 * merged changes from GLib-1-2 branch.
406 1999-05-06 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
408 * gmodule.c: Remove LibMain.
410 Sat May 1 10:58:57 PDT 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
412 * Makefile.am: use -avoid-version and -module for test plugins
414 Mon Apr 19 08:43:59 1999 ape@lrdpf.spacetec.no (Asbjorn Pettersen)
416 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add gmodule-os2.c
418 Wed Apr 7 20:12:58 1999 ape@lrdpf.spacetec.no (Asbjorn Pettersen)
420 * gmodule-os2.c: OS/2 specific file for gmodule.
421 * gmodule.c (_g_module_open): Add gmodule-os2.c if G_MODULE_IMPL_OS2.
422 * gmoduleconf.h.in: Add G_MODULE_IMPL_OS2.
424 Fri Apr 23 09:03:48 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
426 * gmodule.c (g_module_symbol): removed inline variable assignment.
427 s/CHECK_ERROR/SUPPORT_OR_RETURN/ to make the code more self descriptive.
429 Wed Feb 10 12:06:30 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
431 * gmodule.c (CHECK_ERROR): be more descriptive on unsupported systems.
433 Wed Feb 10 07:56:33 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
435 * gmodule.c (g_module_error): fixed errernerous code wrt to thread
436 specific error string allocation handling.
438 Thu Jan 21 12:40:11 EST 1999 Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
440 * gmodule-dl.c (_g_module_build_path):
441 Add braces to eliminate an ambiguous else warning.
443 1999-01-16 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
445 * gmodule-dl.c gmodule-dld.c: In
446 _g_module_build_path, don't add the "lib" prefix and
447 ".so" or ".sl" suffix if already there.
449 * gmodule-win32.c: Likewise for the ".dll" suffix.
451 1998-12-10 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
453 * gmodule.c: Made it MT safe, the g_module_error() is now thread
456 Fri Nov 20 14:43:44 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
458 * gmodule.c (_g_module_build_path): added empty default imlementation
459 so gmodule.so compiles on systems that are not yet supported, fix from
460 Erik Bagfors <bagfors@hpc2n.umu.se>.
462 1998-11-13 Nuno Ferreira <nmrf@rnl.ist.utl.pt>
464 * Makefile.am (INCLUDES): The previous commit message is wrong
465 about the -I$(top_srcdir) being redundant. I put it back.
467 Wed Nov 11 23:23:22 EST 1998 Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
469 * Makefile.am : INCLUDES is the right way to add to CFLAGS, not
470 DEFS. Also there are bugs with '+=' in makefiles.
471 Got rid of DEFS line by moving G_LOG_DOMAIN setting into INCLUDES.
472 Removed redundant -I from INCLUDES.
474 Tue Oct 27 04:00:11 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
476 * testgmodule.c (main): changed the #ifdef WIN32 test to NATIVE_WIN32,
477 this needs to be more constistent throughout the code, do we go for
478 NATIVE_WIN32 or WIN32?
480 * gmodule.c (LibMain): special cased the #ifdef __LCC__ case for
481 NATIVE_WIN32, since lcc maybe used on other platforms as well.
482 * libgplugin_a.c (LibMain):
483 * libgplugin_b.c (LibMain):
484 likewise. not sure i like this special requirement for lcc in here.
486 * gmodule-dl.c (_g_module_build_path):
487 feature empty "" directories and prepend the module name with "lib".
489 * gmodule-dld.c (_g_module_build_path):
490 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path):
491 feature empty "" directories.
493 * we need some more magic in the _g_module_build_path variants
494 so we don't append/prepend lib and .so, .sl or .dll for those names
495 that already contain it.
497 * applied patch from Tor Lillqvist for g_module_build_path() and
500 1998-10-20: Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
502 * gmodule/gmodule-win32.c:
505 * gmodule/gmodule.c gmodule/gmodule.h:
506 Added the funcion g_module_build_path that builds the path to
507 a module file, decorating the name according to the system's
508 conventions. Added the Windows implementation.
510 * gmodule/libgplugin_a.c gmodule/libgplugin_b.c:
511 Added LibMain for LCC-Win32.
513 * gmodule/testgmodule.c:
514 Handle Windows dll names.
516 1998-10-25 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
518 * gmodule.h: Remove `#pragma }'.
519 * gmoduleconf.h.in: Likewise.
521 Wed Oct 21 19:58:27 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
523 * gmodule.c (g_module_symbol): fixed a string pointer bug that could
524 cause garbage error messages from g_module_symbol() for systems that
527 Mon Sep 21 01:54:48 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
530 * gmodule.c: renamed old _de_init functionality to _unload.
531 modules are now expected to export:
532 G_MODULE_EXPORT const gchar* g_module_check_init (GModule *module);
534 G_MODULE_EXPORT void g_module_unload (GModule *module);
535 returning a string other than NULL from g_module_check_init() will
536 prevent the module from being loaded. a call to g_module_make_resident()
537 from g_module_unload() will prevent the module from being unloaded and
538 still make it resident.
540 Thu Sep 17 06:34:22 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
543 * gmodule.c: implemented g_module_make_resident() which can be
544 used to make modules resident.
545 fixed a buglet about the optional "g_module_de_init" function in
546 modules, which could get invoked twice on very obscure occasions.
548 Tue Sep 15 14:57:30 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
550 * Makefile.am: Update to libtool-1.2b,
551 change library versioning scheme to drop LT_RELEASE
552 from the -l line, while keeping it in the soname.
554 Thu Aug 20 07:08:16 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
556 * gmodule.c: provide no operation implementation for the underlying
557 _g_module_* functions, so we at least compile on systems that have
558 neither of G_MODULE_IMPL_DL or G_MODULE_IMPL_DLD.
560 Mon Aug 17 03:41:52 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
563 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): changed the return type for the
564 GModuleCheckInit function to be a string, describing the error
566 (g_module_symbol): show the failing symbol on error messages.
568 Fri Aug 14 02:24:39 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
570 * Makefile.am: feature the G_LOG_DOMAIN macro to set the log domain
571 to "GModule" upon compilation. we currently have to add this definition
572 to the DEFS variable.
573 * testgmodule.c: we need an ugly #undef G_LOG_DOMAIN at the start
574 of this file currently, since automake doesn't support per target
577 Mon Aug 10 03:35:57 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
579 * gmodule.c: minor changes to internal interface.
