3 Applied patch from Soeren Sandmann:
5 * gmodule.c (g_module_error): G_CONST_RETURN
6 (g_module_name): G_CONST_RETURN
8 Sat Feb 17 07:27:15 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
10 * gmodule.c: work around platforms that have broken RTLD_GLOBAL.
12 2001-01-27 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
14 * gmodule.c: (Win32) Need <io.h> for open() and close().
16 2000-12-22 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
18 * gmodule.c: Make g_module_open more tolerant wrt to the module
19 name. First it tries to open the module as named, if that fails,
20 it checks, whether it is a libtool archive and parses it, if that
21 fails it appends the systems shared library suffix
22 (i.e. ".so") (if not already found) and tries again and if that
23 fails it tries to append the ".la" libtool suffix (if not already
26 * gmodule.c: Lock recursive mutex during most module functions for
29 * gmodule-dl.c: Return an error from _g_module_symbol only, if
30 dlerror says so. All other functions return an error as well, if
33 * testgmodule.c: Thanks to the above change the #ifdefs have
36 2000-10-15 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
38 * Makefile.am (BUILT_EXTRA_DIST): New variable.
39 (dist-hook): Handle $(BUILT_EXTRA_DIST).
41 2000-09-28 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
43 * gmodule.h: Moved declaration of g_log_domain_gmodule up before
44 the inclusion of glib.h to make it compile on non-gcc compilers.
46 2000-07-22 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
48 * makefile.mingw.in: Remove leftover gmodule-win32res.o stuff. The
49 build-dll script automagically handles resources.
51 2000-07-20 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
53 * libgplugin_a.c, testgmodule.c: Use g_path_get_basename instead
54 of the deprecated g_basename.
56 2000-07-19 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
58 * gmodule.h: include glib.h before doing extern "C". Makes some C++
59 compiler happy. Reported by Denis Vakatov
60 <vakatov@peony.nlm.nih.gov>.
62 2000-07-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
64 * gmodule-win32.c: Don't #include <tlhelp32.h> when compiling with
65 gcc, as it isn't provided. Declaration of a needed struct (from
66 www.microsoft.com) inserted instead.
68 2000-05-13 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
70 * makefile.mingw.in: New file, with gmodule stuff
71 moved from ../makefile.mingw.in.
73 * Makefile.am: Add to EXTRA_DIST, and add rule to make makefile.mingw.
75 2000-05-02 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
77 * gmodule-win32.c: No need to include <psapi.h>
79 2000-03-23 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
81 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_symbol): When looking for symbols in
82 the "main" module we must search both the main program and all
83 currently loaded DLLs. Not only the main program, or even just the
84 DLLs loaded as gmodules. Libglade requires this.
86 Thus we need to get a list of all modules in the current
87 process. There are two alternative APIs to do this: PSAPI and
88 Toolhelp. The former is only available on NT (including Win2k),
89 the latter on Win9x and Win2k. Check which one works, and use
92 First check for the symbol in the main program, and if not found
93 there, in all the modules.
95 Code for using PSAPI and Toolhelp was borrowed from the Dr. Mingw
96 tool written by José Fonseca <em96115@fe.up.pt>. Thanks.
98 2000-03-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
100 * gmodule-win32.c: Call g_win32_error_message() to get the error
105 * gmodule.c: Remove LibMain functions that were needed by LCC,
106 which is not a supported compiler.
108 * testgmodule.c (main): Test for G_MODULE_IMPL ==
109 G_MODULE_IMPL_WIN32, not G_OS_WIN32.
111 * gmoduleconf.h.win32: Remove LCC stuff from here, too.
113 Wed Mar 1 05:34:47 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
115 * gmodule-beos.c (_g_module_symbol): do not return NULL symbols.
117 * gmodule-os2.c: removed NetBSD specific defines.
118 (_g_module_self): set an error message for unsupported behaviour.
120 * gmodule-beos.c: many coding style fixups.
124 (_g_module_symbol): bunch of memory leaks plugged.
126 * gmodule-dl.c: make sure the error message returned from dlerror()
127 is always != NULL, by using a wrapper function fetch_dlerror(). based
128 on a patch to fix _g_module_symbol() for NetBSD from Scott Presnell
131 * gmodule-dld.c: minor indentation.
133 * gmodule-win32.c: minor cleanups.
135 * merges from glib-1-2.
137 Sat Feb 19 19:43:29 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
139 * testgmodule.c (main): added test to check that not yet bound symbols
140 in shared libraries of the main module are retrievable, from David Gero.
142 2000-01-13 Martin Baulig <martin@home-of-linux.org>
144 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): Check whether `check_init' is not NULL
145 before we attempt to call it.
147 Sun Oct 3 19:30:52 PDT 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
150 * testgmodule.c: use G_OS stuff
152 Sat Jul 24 20:47:18 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
154 * merged changes from GLib-1-2 branch.
156 1999-05-06 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
158 * gmodule.c: Remove LibMain.
160 Sat May 1 10:58:57 PDT 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
162 * Makefile.am: use -avoid-version and -module for test plugins
164 Mon Apr 19 08:43:59 1999 ape@lrdpf.spacetec.no (Asbjorn Pettersen)
166 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add gmodule-os2.c
168 Wed Apr 7 20:12:58 1999 ape@lrdpf.spacetec.no (Asbjorn Pettersen)
170 * gmodule-os2.c: OS/2 specific file for gmodule.
171 * gmodule.c (_g_module_open): Add gmodule-os2.c if G_MODULE_IMPL_OS2.
172 * gmoduleconf.h.in: Add G_MODULE_IMPL_OS2.
174 Fri Apr 23 09:03:48 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
176 * gmodule.c (g_module_symbol): removed inline variable assignment.
177 s/CHECK_ERROR/SUPPORT_OR_RETURN/ to make the code more self descriptive.
179 Wed Feb 10 12:06:30 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
181 * gmodule.c (CHECK_ERROR): be more descriptive on unsupported systems.
183 Wed Feb 10 07:56:33 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
185 * gmodule.c (g_module_error): fixed errernerous code wrt to thread
186 specific error string allocation handling.
188 Thu Jan 21 12:40:11 EST 1999 Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
190 * gmodule-dl.c (_g_module_build_path):
191 Add braces to eliminate an ambiguous else warning.
193 1999-01-16 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
195 * gmodule-dl.c gmodule-dld.c: In
196 _g_module_build_path, don't add the "lib" prefix and
197 ".so" or ".sl" suffix if already there.
199 * gmodule-win32.c: Likewise for the ".dll" suffix.
201 1998-12-10 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
203 * gmodule.c: Made it MT safe, the g_module_error() is now thread
206 Fri Nov 20 14:43:44 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
208 * gmodule.c (_g_module_build_path): added empty default imlementation
209 so gmodule.so compiles on systems that are not yet supported, fix from
210 Erik Bagfors <bagfors@hpc2n.umu.se>.
212 1998-11-13 Nuno Ferreira <nmrf@rnl.ist.utl.pt>
214 * Makefile.am (INCLUDES): The previous commit message is wrong
215 about the -I$(top_srcdir) being redundant. I put it back.
217 Wed Nov 11 23:23:22 EST 1998 Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
219 * Makefile.am : INCLUDES is the right way to add to CFLAGS, not
220 DEFS. Also there are bugs with '+=' in makefiles.
221 Got rid of DEFS line by moving G_LOG_DOMAIN setting into INCLUDES.
222 Removed redundant -I from INCLUDES.
224 Tue Oct 27 04:00:11 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
226 * testgmodule.c (main): changed the #ifdef WIN32 test to NATIVE_WIN32,
227 this needs to be more constistent throughout the code, do we go for
228 NATIVE_WIN32 or WIN32?
230 * gmodule.c (LibMain): special cased the #ifdef __LCC__ case for
231 NATIVE_WIN32, since lcc maybe used on other platforms as well.
232 * libgplugin_a.c (LibMain):
233 * libgplugin_b.c (LibMain):
234 likewise. not sure i like this special requirement for lcc in here.
236 * gmodule-dl.c (_g_module_build_path):
237 feature empty "" directories and prepend the module name with "lib".
239 * gmodule-dld.c (_g_module_build_path):
240 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path):
241 feature empty "" directories.
243 * we need some more magic in the _g_module_build_path variants
244 so we don't append/prepend lib and .so, .sl or .dll for those names
245 that already contain it.
247 * applied patch from Tor Lillqvist for g_module_build_path() and
250 1998-10-20: Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
252 * gmodule/gmodule-win32.c:
255 * gmodule/gmodule.c gmodule/gmodule.h:
256 Added the funcion g_module_build_path that builds the path to
257 a module file, decorating the name according to the system's
258 conventions. Added the Windows implementation.
260 * gmodule/libgplugin_a.c gmodule/libgplugin_b.c:
261 Added LibMain for LCC-Win32.
263 * gmodule/testgmodule.c:
264 Handle Windows dll names.
266 1998-10-25 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
268 * gmodule.h: Remove `#pragma }'.
269 * gmoduleconf.h.in: Likewise.
271 Wed Oct 21 19:58:27 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
273 * gmodule.c (g_module_symbol): fixed a string pointer bug that could
274 cause garbage error messages from g_module_symbol() for systems that
277 Mon Sep 21 01:54:48 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
280 * gmodule.c: renamed old _de_init functionality to _unload.
281 modules are now expected to export:
282 G_MODULE_EXPORT const gchar* g_module_check_init (GModule *module);
284 G_MODULE_EXPORT void g_module_unload (GModule *module);
285 returning a string other than NULL from g_module_check_init() will
286 prevent the module from being loaded. a call to g_module_make_resident()
287 from g_module_unload() will prevent the module from being unloaded and
288 still make it resident.
290 Thu Sep 17 06:34:22 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
293 * gmodule.c: implemented g_module_make_resident() which can be
294 used to make modules resident.
295 fixed a buglet about the optional "g_module_de_init" function in
296 modules, which could get invoked twice on very obscure occasions.
298 Tue Sep 15 14:57:30 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
300 * Makefile.am: Update to libtool-1.2b,
301 change library versioning scheme to drop LT_RELEASE
302 from the -l line, while keeping it in the soname.
304 Thu Aug 20 07:08:16 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
306 * gmodule.c: provide no operation implementation for the underlying
307 _g_module_* functions, so we at least compile on systems that have
308 neither of G_MODULE_IMPL_DL or G_MODULE_IMPL_DLD.
310 Mon Aug 17 03:41:52 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
313 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): changed the return type for the
314 GModuleCheckInit function to be a string, describing the error
316 (g_module_symbol): show the failing symbol on error messages.
318 Fri Aug 14 02:24:39 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
320 * Makefile.am: feature the G_LOG_DOMAIN macro to set the log domain
321 to "GModule" upon compilation. we currently have to add this definition
322 to the DEFS variable.
323 * testgmodule.c: we need an ugly #undef G_LOG_DOMAIN at the start
324 of this file currently, since automake doesn't support per target
327 Mon Aug 10 03:35:57 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
329 * gmodule.c: minor changes to internal interface.
331 * gmodule-dld.c: put some comments into the files, and provided
332 better error checking for shl_findsym(). whish i had a system to
335 Mon Aug 10 02:18:31 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
337 * Makefile.am (lib_LTLIBRARIES): for now, skip the dependency on
338 -lglib for libgmodule-1.1.la, libgplugin_a.la and libgplugin_b.la
339 since this clashes with inter-library-dependencies for not installed
340 libraries. glib-config takes care of this for the usuall case, but
341 there needs to be a better way...
343 Sun Aug 9 15:57:38 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
345 * testgmodule.c: test program for GModule.
347 * libgplugin_b.c: test plugins for testgmodule.c.
350 * gmodule.c: GModule library implementation, which is basically
351 a wrapper about system specifc dynamic loading facilities.
353 Sun Aug 9 10:31:05 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
355 * ChangeLog start for gmodule.
