86 main module if it is already open. (#98648)
88 Sat Mar 2 14:46:17 2002 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
90 * gmodule-beos.c (_g_module_build_path) * gmodule-dyld.c (_g_module_build_path)
91 gmodule-dl.c (_g_module_build_path): Use G_MODULE_SUFFIX rather than

94 Sun Feb 17 18:15:22 2002 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
96 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): Fix typo when checking
97 if file + module_suffix exists. (Miroslaw Dobrzanski-Neumann,
100 2001-11-24 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
102 * Makefile.am: Remove rule for testgmodule.exp, too.
104 2001-11-22 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
106 * gmodule-win32.c: Current w32api headers do include tlhelp32.h,
107 so no need to have an extract from it here.
109 Mon Nov 19 16:12:12 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
111 * Makefile.am makefile.msc.in makefile.mingw.in: Remove
112 testgmodule and associated plugin files; we don't need _both_ this
113 and ../tests/module-test.c
115 2001-11-16 Michael Meeks <michael@ximian.com>
117 * gmodule.c (parse_libtool_archive): fix leak.
119 2001-10-30 Dan Winship <danw@ximian.com>
121 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add gmodule-dyld.c
123 2001-10-23 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
125 * Makefile.am: (Win32): If we have built the MSVC import library,
126 install it. Install the gcc import library. Also support
129 2001-10-09 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
131 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path): More Unix compatibility:
132 Add "lib" prefix in case the module name doesn't already have it,
133 except if it ends with ".dll" (in which case it probably already
134 is the name of an existing DLL). This is needed for instance for
135 the gdk-pixbuf loaders, which are called "lib*.dll", but
136 gdk-pixbuf-io calls g_module_build_path without the "lib" prefix.
138 2001-10-03 jacob berkman <jacob@ximian.com>
140 * libgplugin_a.c: (gplugin_a_module_func):
141 * gmodule.h: s/retrive/retrieve/
143 2001-09-25 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
145 * makefile.mingw.in: Fix missing end @ in @LT_CURRENT@.
147 * makefile.msc.in: Use same DLL and import library names as
150 2001-09-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
152 * gmodule.rc.in: Correct InternalName and OriginalFilename to
153 match what we actually produce.
155 2001-09-18 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
157 * Makefile.am: On Win32, pass a dummy -rpath flag to libtool when
158 building libgplugin_[ab].la, otherwise libtool doesn't create a
159 DLL, but a static archive.
161 2001-07-20 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>
163 * makefile.msc.in : reflect glib move
165 2001-05-21 Mark Murnane <Mark.Murnane@ireland.sun.com>
167 * gmodule.c (g_str_check_suffix): Modified type of string_len
168 and suffix_len to be gsize. Properly accommodates return from
171 2001-05-29 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
173 * gmodule.c (g_module_set_error_unduped): Do not g_strdup, as
174 promised in the function name.
176 Tue May 29 12:57:51 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
178 * gmodule.c (g_module_symbol): erk, strconcat needs NULL as last arg.
179 make sure we pass module name with suffix into backend open.
181 Mon May 28 20:19:25 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
183 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): as a last resort, if we can't access()
184 the module, leave it up to the platform backends to find it.
185 (fixes implicit search patch loading i broke with my last
186 commit, spotted by Padraig O'Briain).
188 Thu May 24 03:43:12 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
190 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): reordered code so we have a single
191 module loading point (for reliable error messages). do access()
192 tests to figure plausible file names.
193 make error messages more verbose so users canfigure what's going on.
195 2001-04-20 Dan Winship <danw@ximian.com>
197 * gmodule-dyld.c: gmodule implementation for Darwin/Mac OS X
200 * gmoduleconf.h.in: Add gmodule-dyld support
202 * testgmodule.c (main): Fix spelling
204 2001-03-13 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
206 From Edward M. Lee <tailbert@yahoo.com>:
208 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path): use (cygwin friendly) dir
211 2001-03-12 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
213 * Makefile.am (libgplugin_a_la_LIBADD, libgplugin_b_la_LIBADD):
214 Link with the libgmodule la only on Win32.
216 2001-03-10 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
218 * Makefile.am: Use the _LIBADD dependency on libglib only on the
219 Win32 platform (including Cygwin).
221 2001-03-07 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
223 * Makefile.am, makefile.mingw.in, makefile.msc.in: Set
224 G_LOG_DOMAIN to \"GModule\" instead of g_log_domain_gmodule.
226 * gmodule.def, gmodule.h, gmodule.c: Removed g_log_domain_gmodule.
228 2001-02-21 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
230 * gmodule.h: Use G_BEGIN_DECLS and G_END_DECLS. Define
231 G_MODULE_EXPORT correctly on Cygwin, too.
233 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_open): Convert path to Windows format
236 * Makefile.am (libglib): Use libglib-1.3.la from
237 top_builddir. Invoke libtool with -no-undefined for Win32 and
240 2001-02-17 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>
242 Applied patch from Soeren Sandmann:
244 * gmodule.c (g_module_error): G_CONST_RETURN
245 (g_module_name): G_CONST_RETURN
247 Sat Feb 17 07:27:15 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
249 * gmodule.c: work around platforms that have broken RTLD_GLOBAL.
251 2001-01-27 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
253 * gmodule.c: (Win32) Need <io.h> for open() and close().
255 2000-12-22 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
257 * gmodule.c: Make g_module_open more tolerant wrt to the module
258 name. First it tries to open the module as named, if that fails,
259 it checks, whether it is a libtool archive and parses it, if that
260 fails it appends the systems shared library suffix
261 (i.e. ".so") (if not already found) and tries again and if that
262 fails it tries to append the ".la" libtool suffix (if not already
263 found) and parses it.
265 * gmodule.c: Lock recursive mutex during most module functions for
268 * gmodule-dl.c: Return an error from _g_module_symbol only, if
269 dlerror says so. All other functions return an error as well, if
270 dlerror returns NULL.
272 * testgmodule.c: Thanks to the above change the #ifdefs have
275 2000-10-15 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
277 * Makefile.am (BUILT_EXTRA_DIST): New variable.
278 (dist-hook): Handle $(BUILT_EXTRA_DIST).
280 2000-09-28 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
282 * gmodule.h: Moved declaration of g_log_domain_gmodule up before
283 the inclusion of glib.h to make it compile on non-gcc compilers.
285 2000-07-22 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
287 * makefile.mingw.in: Remove leftover gmodule-win32res.o stuff. The
288 build-dll script automagically handles resources.
290 2000-07-20 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
292 * libgplugin_a.c, testgmodule.c: Use g_path_get_basename instead
293 of the deprecated g_basename.
295 2000-07-19 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
297 * gmodule.h: include glib.h before doing extern "C". Makes some C++
298 compiler happy. Reported by Denis Vakatov
299 <vakatov@peony.nlm.nih.gov>.
301 2000-07-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
303 * gmodule-win32.c: Don't #include <tlhelp32.h> when compiling with
304 gcc, as it isn't provided. Declaration of a needed struct (from
305 www.microsoft.com) inserted instead.
307 2000-05-13 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
309 * makefile.mingw.in: New file, with gmodule stuff
310 moved from ../makefile.mingw.in.
312 * Makefile.am: Add to EXTRA_DIST, and add rule to make makefile.mingw.
314 2000-05-02 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
316 * gmodule-win32.c: No need to include <psapi.h>
318 2000-03-23 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
320 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_symbol): When looking for symbols in
321 the "main" module we must search both the main program and all
322 currently loaded DLLs. Not only the main program, or even just the
323 DLLs loaded as gmodules. Libglade requires this.
325 Thus we need to get a list of all modules in the current
326 process. There are two alternative APIs to do this: PSAPI and
327 Toolhelp. The former is only available on NT (including Win2k),
328 the latter on Win9x and Win2k. Check which one works, and use
331 First check for the symbol in the main program, and if not found
332 there, in all the modules.
334 Code for using PSAPI and Toolhelp was borrowed from the Dr. Mingw
335 tool written by José Fonseca <em96115@fe.up.pt>. Thanks.
337 2000-03-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
339 * gmodule-win32.c: Call g_win32_error_message() to get the error
344 * gmodule.c: Remove LibMain functions that were needed by LCC,
345 which is not a supported compiler.
347 * testgmodule.c (main): Test for G_MODULE_IMPL ==
348 G_MODULE_IMPL_WIN32, not G_OS_WIN32.
350 * gmoduleconf.h.win32: Remove LCC stuff from here, too.
352 Wed Mar 1 05:34:47 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
354 * gmodule-beos.c (_g_module_symbol): do not return NULL symbols.
356 * gmodule-os2.c: removed NetBSD specific defines.
357 (_g_module_self): set an error message for unsupported behaviour.
359 * gmodule-beos.c: many coding style fixups.
363 (_g_module_symbol): bunch of memory leaks plugged.
365 * gmodule-dl.c: make sure the error message returned from dlerror()
366 is always != NULL, by using a wrapper function fetch_dlerror(). based
367 on a patch to fix _g_module_symbol() for NetBSD from Scott Presnell
370 * gmodule-dld.c: minor indentation.
372 * gmodule-win32.c: minor cleanups.
374 * merges from glib-1-2.
376 Sat Feb 19 19:43:29 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
378 * testgmodule.c (main): added test to check that not yet bound symbols
379 in shared libraries of the main module are retrievable, from David Gero.
381 2000-01-13 Martin Baulig <martin@home-of-linux.org>
383 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): Check whether `check_init' is not NULL
384 before we attempt to call it.
386 Sun Oct 3 19:30:52 PDT 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
389 * testgmodule.c: use G_OS stuff
391 Sat Jul 24 20:47:18 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
393 * merged changes from GLib-1-2 branch.
395 1999-05-06 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
397 * gmodule.c: Remove LibMain.
399 Sat May 1 10:58:57 PDT 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
401 * Makefile.am: use -avoid-version and -module for test plugins
403 Mon Apr 19 08:43:59 1999 ape@lrdpf.spacetec.no (Asbjorn Pettersen)
405 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add gmodule-os2.c
407 Wed Apr 7 20:12:58 1999 ape@lrdpf.spacetec.no (Asbjorn Pettersen)
409 * gmodule-os2.c: OS/2 specific file for gmodule.
410 * gmodule.c (_g_module_open): Add gmodule-os2.c if G_MODULE_IMPL_OS2.
411 * gmoduleconf.h.in: Add G_MODULE_IMPL_OS2.
413 Fri Apr 23 09:03:48 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
415 * gmodule.c (g_module_symbol): removed inline variable assignment.
416 s/CHECK_ERROR/SUPPORT_OR_RETURN/ to make the code more self descriptive.
418 Wed Feb 10 12:06:30 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
420 * gmodule.c (CHECK_ERROR): be more descriptive on unsupported systems.
422 Wed Feb 10 07:56:33 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
424 * gmodule.c (g_module_error): fixed errernerous code wrt to thread
425 specific error string allocation handling.
427 Thu Jan 21 12:40:11 EST 1999 Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
429 * gmodule-dl.c (_g_module_build_path):
430 Add braces to eliminate an ambiguous else warning.
432 1999-01-16 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
434 * gmodule-dl.c gmodule-dld.c: In
435 _g_module_build_path, don't add the "lib" prefix and
436 ".so" or ".sl" suffix if already there.
438 * gmodule-win32.c: Likewise for the ".dll" suffix.
440 1998-12-10 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
442 * gmodule.c: Made it MT safe, the g_module_error() is now thread
445 Fri Nov 20 14:43:44 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
447 * gmodule.c (_g_module_build_path): added empty default imlementation
448 so gmodule.so compiles on systems that are not yet supported, fix from
449 Erik Bagfors <bagfors@hpc2n.umu.se>.
451 1998-11-13 Nuno Ferreira <nmrf@rnl.ist.utl.pt>
453 * Makefile.am (INCLUDES): The previous commit message is wrong
454 about the -I$(top_srcdir) being redundant. I put it back.
456 Wed Nov 11 23:23:22 EST 1998 Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
458 * Makefile.am : INCLUDES is the right way to add to CFLAGS, not
459 DEFS. Also there are bugs with '+=' in makefiles.
460 Got rid of DEFS line by moving G_LOG_DOMAIN setting into INCLUDES.
461 Removed redundant -I from INCLUDES.
463 Tue Oct 27 04:00:11 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
465 * testgmodule.c (main): changed the #ifdef WIN32 test to NATIVE_WIN32,
466 this needs to be more constistent throughout the code, do we go for
467 NATIVE_WIN32 or WIN32?
469 * gmodule.c (LibMain): special cased the #ifdef __LCC__ case for
470 NATIVE_WIN32, since lcc maybe used on other platforms as well.
471 * libgplugin_a.c (LibMain):
472 * libgplugin_b.c (LibMain):
473 likewise. not sure i like this special requirement for lcc in here.
475 * gmodule-dl.c (_g_module_build_path):
476 feature empty "" directories and prepend the module name with "lib".
478 * gmodule-dld.c (_g_module_build_path):
479 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path):
480 feature empty "" directories.
482 * we need some more magic in the _g_module_build_path variants
483 so we don't append/prepend lib and .so, .sl or .dll for those names
484 that already contain it.
486 * applied patch from Tor Lillqvist for g_module_build_path() and
489 1998-10-20: Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
491 * gmodule/gmodule-win32.c:
494 * gmodule/gmodule.c gmodule/gmodule.h:
495 Added the funcion g_module_build_path that builds the path to
496 a module file, decorating the name according to the system's
497 conventions. Added the Windows implementation.
499 * gmodule/libgplugin_a.c gmodule/libgplugin_b.c:
500 Added LibMain for LCC-Win32.
502 * gmodule/testgmodule.c:
503 Handle Windows dll names.
505 1998-10-25 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
507 * gmodule.h: Remove `#pragma }'.
508 * gmoduleconf.h.in: Likewise.
510 Wed Oct 21 19:58:27 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
512 * gmodule.c (g_module_symbol): fixed a string pointer bug that could
513 cause garbage error messages from g_module_symbol() for systems that
516 Mon Sep 21 01:54:48 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
519 * gmodule.c: renamed old _de_init functionality to _unload.
520 modules are now expected to export:
521 G_MODULE_EXPORT const gchar* g_module_check_init (GModule *module);
523 G_MODULE_EXPORT void g_module_unload (GModule *module);
524 returning a string other than NULL from g_module_check_init() will
525 prevent the module from being loaded. a call to g_module_make_resident()
526 from g_module_unload() will prevent the module from being unloaded and
527 still make it resident.
529 Thu Sep 17 06:34:22 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
532 * gmodule.c: implemented g_module_make_resident() which can be
533 used to make modules resident.
534 fixed a buglet about the optional "g_module_de_init" function in
535 modules, which could get invoked twice on very obscure occasions.
537 Tue Sep 15 14:57:30 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
539 * Makefile.am: Update to libtool-1.2b,
540 change library versioning scheme to drop LT_RELEASE
541 from the -l line, while keeping it in the soname.
543 Thu Aug 20 07:08:16 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
545 * gmodule.c: provide no operation implementation for the underlying
546 _g_module_* functions, so we at least compile on systems that have
547 neither of G_MODULE_IMPL_DL or G_MODULE_IMPL_DLD.
549 Mon Aug 17 03:41:52 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
552 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): changed the return type for the
553 GModuleCheckInit function to be a string, describing the error
555 (g_module_symbol): show the failing symbol on error messages.
557 Fri Aug 14 02:24:39 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
559 * Makefile.am: feature the G_LOG_DOMAIN macro to set the log domain
560 to "GModule" upon compilation. we currently have to add this definition
561 to the DEFS variable.
562 * testgmodule.c: we need an ugly #undef G_LOG_DOMAIN at the start
563 of this file currently, since automake doesn't support per target
566 Mon Aug 10 03:35:57 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
568 * gmodule.c: minor changes to internal interface.
570 * gmodule-dld.c: put some comments into the files, and provided
571 better error checking for shl_findsym(). whish i had a system to
574 Mon Aug 10 02:18:31 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
576 * Makefile.am (lib_LTLIBRARIES): for now, skip the dependency on
577 -lglib for libgmodule-1.1.la, libgplugin_a.la and libgplugin_b.la
578 since this clashes with inter-library-dependencies for not installed
