3 * gmodule.c: Make g_module_open more tolerant wrt to the module
4 name. First it tries to open the module as named, if that fails,
5 it checks, whether it is a libtool archive and parses it, if that
6 fails it appends the systems shared library suffix
7 (i.e. ".so") (if not already found) and tries again and if that
8 fails it tries to append the ".la" libtool suffix (if not already
11 * gmodule.c: Lock recursive mutex during most module functions for
14 * gmodule-dl.c: Return an error from _g_module_symbol only, if
15 dlerror says so. All other functions return an error as well, if
18 * testgmodule.c: Thanks to the above change the #ifdefs have
21 2000-10-15 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
23 * Makefile.am (BUILT_EXTRA_DIST): New variable.
24 (dist-hook): Handle $(BUILT_EXTRA_DIST).
26 2000-09-28 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
28 * gmodule.h: Moved declaration of g_log_domain_gmodule up before
29 the inclusion of glib.h to make it compile on non-gcc compilers.
31 2000-07-22 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
33 * makefile.mingw.in: Remove leftover gmodule-win32res.o stuff. The
34 build-dll script automagically handles resources.
36 2000-07-20 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
38 * libgplugin_a.c, testgmodule.c: Use g_path_get_basename instead
39 of the deprecated g_basename.
41 2000-07-19 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
43 * gmodule.h: include glib.h before doing extern "C". Makes some C++
44 compiler happy. Reported by Denis Vakatov
45 <vakatov@peony.nlm.nih.gov>.
47 2000-07-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
49 * gmodule-win32.c: Don't #include <tlhelp32.h> when compiling with
50 gcc, as it isn't provided. Declaration of a needed struct (from
51 www.microsoft.com) inserted instead.
53 2000-05-13 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
55 * makefile.mingw.in: New file, with gmodule stuff
56 moved from ../makefile.mingw.in.
58 * Makefile.am: Add to EXTRA_DIST, and add rule to make makefile.mingw.
60 2000-05-02 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
62 * gmodule-win32.c: No need to include <psapi.h>
64 2000-03-23 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
66 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_symbol): When looking for symbols in
67 the "main" module we must search both the main program and all
68 currently loaded DLLs. Not only the main program, or even just the
69 DLLs loaded as gmodules. Libglade requires this.
71 Thus we need to get a list of all modules in the current
72 process. There are two alternative APIs to do this: PSAPI and
73 Toolhelp. The former is only available on NT (including Win2k),
74 the latter on Win9x and Win2k. Check which one works, and use
77 First check for the symbol in the main program, and if not found
78 there, in all the modules.
80 Code for using PSAPI and Toolhelp was borrowed from the Dr. Mingw
81 tool written by José Fonseca <em96115@fe.up.pt>. Thanks.
83 2000-03-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
85 * gmodule-win32.c: Call g_win32_error_message() to get the error
90 * gmodule.c: Remove LibMain functions that were needed by LCC,
91 which is not a supported compiler.
93 * testgmodule.c (main): Test for G_MODULE_IMPL ==
94 G_MODULE_IMPL_WIN32, not G_OS_WIN32.
96 * gmoduleconf.h.win32: Remove LCC stuff from here, too.
98 Wed Mar 1 05:34:47 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
100 * gmodule-beos.c (_g_module_symbol): do not return NULL symbols.
102 * gmodule-os2.c: removed NetBSD specific defines.
103 (_g_module_self): set an error message for unsupported behaviour.
105 * gmodule-beos.c: many coding style fixups.
109 (_g_module_symbol): bunch of memory leaks plugged.
111 * gmodule-dl.c: make sure the error message returned from dlerror()
112 is always != NULL, by using a wrapper function fetch_dlerror(). based
113 on a patch to fix _g_module_symbol() for NetBSD from Scott Presnell
116 * gmodule-dld.c: minor indentation.
118 * gmodule-win32.c: minor cleanups.
120 * merges from glib-1-2.
122 Sat Feb 19 19:43:29 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
124 * testgmodule.c (main): added test to check that not yet bound symbols
125 in shared libraries of the main module are retrievable, from David Gero.
127 2000-01-13 Martin Baulig <martin@home-of-linux.org>
129 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): Check whether `check_init' is not NULL
130 before we attempt to call it.
132 Sun Oct 3 19:30:52 PDT 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
135 * testgmodule.c: use G_OS stuff
137 Sat Jul 24 20:47:18 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
139 * merged changes from GLib-1-2 branch.
141 1999-05-06 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
143 * gmodule.c: Remove LibMain.
145 Sat May 1 10:58:57 PDT 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
147 * Makefile.am: use -avoid-version and -module for test plugins
149 Mon Apr 19 08:43:59 1999 ape@lrdpf.spacetec.no (Asbjorn Pettersen)
151 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add gmodule-os2.c
153 Wed Apr 7 20:12:58 1999 ape@lrdpf.spacetec.no (Asbjorn Pettersen)
155 * gmodule-os2.c: OS/2 specific file for gmodule.
156 * gmodule.c (_g_module_open): Add gmodule-os2.c if G_MODULE_IMPL_OS2.
157 * gmoduleconf.h.in: Add G_MODULE_IMPL_OS2.
159 Fri Apr 23 09:03:48 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
161 * gmodule.c (g_module_symbol): removed inline variable assignment.
162 s/CHECK_ERROR/SUPPORT_OR_RETURN/ to make the code more self descriptive.
164 Wed Feb 10 12:06:30 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
166 * gmodule.c (CHECK_ERROR): be more descriptive on unsupported systems.
168 Wed Feb 10 07:56:33 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
170 * gmodule.c (g_module_error): fixed errernerous code wrt to thread
171 specific error string allocation handling.
173 Thu Jan 21 12:40:11 EST 1999 Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
175 * gmodule-dl.c (_g_module_build_path):
176 Add braces to eliminate an ambiguous else warning.
178 1999-01-16 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
180 * gmodule-dl.c gmodule-dld.c: In
181 _g_module_build_path, don't add the "lib" prefix and
182 ".so" or ".sl" suffix if already there.
184 * gmodule-win32.c: Likewise for the ".dll" suffix.
186 1998-12-10 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
188 * gmodule.c: Made it MT safe, the g_module_error() is now thread
191 Fri Nov 20 14:43:44 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
193 * gmodule.c (_g_module_build_path): added empty default imlementation
194 so gmodule.so compiles on systems that are not yet supported, fix from
195 Erik Bagfors <bagfors@hpc2n.umu.se>.
197 1998-11-13 Nuno Ferreira <nmrf@rnl.ist.utl.pt>
199 * Makefile.am (INCLUDES): The previous commit message is wrong
200 about the -I$(top_srcdir) being redundant. I put it back.
202 Wed Nov 11 23:23:22 EST 1998 Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
204 * Makefile.am : INCLUDES is the right way to add to CFLAGS, not
205 DEFS. Also there are bugs with '+=' in makefiles.
206 Got rid of DEFS line by moving G_LOG_DOMAIN setting into INCLUDES.
207 Removed redundant -I from INCLUDES.
209 Tue Oct 27 04:00:11 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
211 * testgmodule.c (main): changed the #ifdef WIN32 test to NATIVE_WIN32,
212 this needs to be more constistent throughout the code, do we go for
213 NATIVE_WIN32 or WIN32?
215 * gmodule.c (LibMain): special cased the #ifdef __LCC__ case for
216 NATIVE_WIN32, since lcc maybe used on other platforms as well.
217 * libgplugin_a.c (LibMain):
218 * libgplugin_b.c (LibMain):
219 likewise. not sure i like this special requirement for lcc in here.
221 * gmodule-dl.c (_g_module_build_path):
222 feature empty "" directories and prepend the module name with "lib".
224 * gmodule-dld.c (_g_module_build_path):
225 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path):
226 feature empty "" directories.
228 * we need some more magic in the _g_module_build_path variants
229 so we don't append/prepend lib and .so, .sl or .dll for those names
230 that already contain it.
232 * applied patch from Tor Lillqvist for g_module_build_path() and
235 1998-10-20: Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
237 * gmodule/gmodule-win32.c:
240 * gmodule/gmodule.c gmodule/gmodule.h:
241 Added the funcion g_module_build_path that builds the path to
242 a module file, decorating the name according to the system's
243 conventions. Added the Windows implementation.
245 * gmodule/libgplugin_a.c gmodule/libgplugin_b.c:
246 Added LibMain for LCC-Win32.
248 * gmodule/testgmodule.c:
249 Handle Windows dll names.
251 1998-10-25 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
253 * gmodule.h: Remove `#pragma }'.
254 * gmoduleconf.h.in: Likewise.
256 Wed Oct 21 19:58:27 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
258 * gmodule.c (g_module_symbol): fixed a string pointer bug that could
259 cause garbage error messages from g_module_symbol() for systems that
262 Mon Sep 21 01:54:48 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
265 * gmodule.c: renamed old _de_init functionality to _unload.
266 modules are now expected to export:
267 G_MODULE_EXPORT const gchar* g_module_check_init (GModule *module);
269 G_MODULE_EXPORT void g_module_unload (GModule *module);
270 returning a string other than NULL from g_module_check_init() will
271 prevent the module from being loaded. a call to g_module_make_resident()
272 from g_module_unload() will prevent the module from being unloaded and
273 still make it resident.
275 Thu Sep 17 06:34:22 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
278 * gmodule.c: implemented g_module_make_resident() which can be
279 used to make modules resident.
280 fixed a buglet about the optional "g_module_de_init" function in
281 modules, which could get invoked twice on very obscure occasions.
283 Tue Sep 15 14:57:30 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
285 * Makefile.am: Update to libtool-1.2b,
286 change library versioning scheme to drop LT_RELEASE
287 from the -l line, while keeping it in the soname.
289 Thu Aug 20 07:08:16 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
291 * gmodule.c: provide no operation implementation for the underlying
292 _g_module_* functions, so we at least compile on systems that have
293 neither of G_MODULE_IMPL_DL or G_MODULE_IMPL_DLD.
295 Mon Aug 17 03:41:52 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
298 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): changed the return type for the
299 GModuleCheckInit function to be a string, describing the error
301 (g_module_symbol): show the failing symbol on error messages.
303 Fri Aug 14 02:24:39 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
305 * Makefile.am: feature the G_LOG_DOMAIN macro to set the log domain
306 to "GModule" upon compilation. we currently have to add this definition
307 to the DEFS variable.
308 * testgmodule.c: we need an ugly #undef G_LOG_DOMAIN at the start
309 of this file currently, since automake doesn't support per target
312 Mon Aug 10 03:35:57 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
314 * gmodule.c: minor changes to internal interface.
316 * gmodule-dld.c: put some comments into the files, and provided
317 better error checking for shl_findsym(). whish i had a system to
320 Mon Aug 10 02:18:31 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
322 * Makefile.am (lib_LTLIBRARIES): for now, skip the dependency on
323 -lglib for libgmodule-1.1.la, libgplugin_a.la and libgplugin_b.la
324 since this clashes with inter-library-dependencies for not installed
325 libraries. glib-config takes care of this for the usuall case, but
326 there needs to be a better way...
328 Sun Aug 9 15:57:38 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
330 * testgmodule.c: test program for GModule.
332 * libgplugin_b.c: test plugins for testgmodule.c.
335 * gmodule.c: GModule library implementation, which is basically
336 a wrapper about system specifc dynamic loading facilities.
338 Sun Aug 9 10:31:05 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
340 * ChangeLog start for gmodule.
