35 2003-01-01 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
37 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path): Use g_ascii_strcasecmp().
39 Tue Dec 3 20:56:19 2002 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
41 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): Properly refcount the
42 main module if it is already open. (#98648)
44 Sat Mar 2 14:46:17 2002 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
46 * gmodule-beos.c (_g_module_build_path) * gmodule-dyld.c (_g_module_build_path)

50 Sun Feb 17 18:15:22 2002 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
52 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): Fix typo when checking
53 if file + module_suffix exists. (Miroslaw Dobrzanski-Neumann,
56 2001-11-24 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
58 * Makefile.am: Remove rule for testgmodule.exp, too.
60 2001-11-22 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
62 * gmodule-win32.c: Current w32api headers do include tlhelp32.h,
63 so no need to have an extract from it here.
65 Mon Nov 19 16:12:12 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
67 * Makefile.am makefile.msc.in makefile.mingw.in: Remove
68 testgmodule and associated plugin files; we don't need _both_ this
69 and ../tests/module-test.c
71 2001-11-16 Michael Meeks <michael@ximian.com>
73 * gmodule.c (parse_libtool_archive): fix leak.
75 2001-10-30 Dan Winship <danw@ximian.com>
77 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add gmodule-dyld.c
79 2001-10-23 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
81 * Makefile.am: (Win32): If we have built the MSVC import library,
82 install it. Install the gcc import library. Also support
85 2001-10-09 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
87 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path): More Unix compatibility:
88 Add "lib" prefix in case the module name doesn't already have it,
89 except if it ends with ".dll" (in which case it probably already
90 is the name of an existing DLL). This is needed for instance for
91 the gdk-pixbuf loaders, which are called "lib*.dll", but
92 gdk-pixbuf-io calls g_module_build_path without the "lib" prefix.
94 2001-10-03 jacob berkman <jacob@ximian.com>
96 * libgplugin_a.c: (gplugin_a_module_func):
97 * gmodule.h: s/retrive/retrieve/
99 2001-09-25 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
101 * makefile.mingw.in: Fix missing end @ in @LT_CURRENT@.
103 * makefile.msc.in: Use same DLL and import library names as
106 2001-09-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
108 * gmodule.rc.in: Correct InternalName and OriginalFilename to
109 match what we actually produce.
111 2001-09-18 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
113 * Makefile.am: On Win32, pass a dummy -rpath flag to libtool when
114 building libgplugin_[ab].la, otherwise libtool doesn't create a
115 DLL, but a static archive.
117 2001-07-20 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>
119 * makefile.msc.in : reflect glib move
121 2001-05-21 Mark Murnane <Mark.Murnane@ireland.sun.com>
123 * gmodule.c (g_str_check_suffix): Modified type of string_len
124 and suffix_len to be gsize. Properly accommodates return from
127 2001-05-29 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
129 * gmodule.c (g_module_set_error_unduped): Do not g_strdup, as
130 promised in the function name.
132 Tue May 29 12:57:51 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
134 * gmodule.c (g_module_symbol): erk, strconcat needs NULL as last arg.
135 make sure we pass module name with suffix into backend open.
137 Mon May 28 20:19:25 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
139 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): as a last resort, if we can't access()
140 the module, leave it up to the platform backends to find it.
141 (fixes implicit search patch loading i broke with my last
142 commit, spotted by Padraig O'Briain).
144 Thu May 24 03:43:12 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
146 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): reordered code so we have a single
147 module loading point (for reliable error messages). do access()
148 tests to figure plausible file names.
149 make error messages more verbose so users canfigure what's going on.
151 2001-04-20 Dan Winship <danw@ximian.com>
153 * gmodule-dyld.c: gmodule implementation for Darwin/Mac OS X
156 * gmoduleconf.h.in: Add gmodule-dyld support
158 * testgmodule.c (main): Fix spelling
160 2001-03-13 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
162 From Edward M. Lee <tailbert@yahoo.com>:
164 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path): use (cygwin friendly) dir
167 2001-03-12 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
169 * Makefile.am (libgplugin_a_la_LIBADD, libgplugin_b_la_LIBADD):
170 Link with the libgmodule la only on Win32.
172 2001-03-10 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
174 * Makefile.am: Use the _LIBADD dependency on libglib only on the
175 Win32 platform (including Cygwin).
177 2001-03-07 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
179 * Makefile.am, makefile.mingw.in, makefile.msc.in: Set
180 G_LOG_DOMAIN to \"GModule\" instead of g_log_domain_gmodule.
182 * gmodule.def, gmodule.h, gmodule.c: Removed g_log_domain_gmodule.
184 2001-02-21 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
186 * gmodule.h: Use G_BEGIN_DECLS and G_END_DECLS. Define
187 G_MODULE_EXPORT correctly on Cygwin, too.
189 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_open): Convert path to Windows format
192 * Makefile.am (libglib): Use libglib-1.3.la from
193 top_builddir. Invoke libtool with -no-undefined for Win32 and
196 2001-02-17 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>
198 Applied patch from Soeren Sandmann:
200 * gmodule.c (g_module_error): G_CONST_RETURN
201 (g_module_name): G_CONST_RETURN
203 Sat Feb 17 07:27:15 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
205 * gmodule.c: work around platforms that have broken RTLD_GLOBAL.
207 2001-01-27 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
209 * gmodule.c: (Win32) Need <io.h> for open() and close().
211 2000-12-22 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
213 * gmodule.c: Make g_module_open more tolerant wrt to the module
214 name. First it tries to open the module as named, if that fails,
215 it checks, whether it is a libtool archive and parses it, if that
216 fails it appends the systems shared library suffix
217 (i.e. ".so") (if not already found) and tries again and if that
218 fails it tries to append the ".la" libtool suffix (if not already
219 found) and parses it.
221 * gmodule.c: Lock recursive mutex during most module functions for
224 * gmodule-dl.c: Return an error from _g_module_symbol only, if
225 dlerror says so. All other functions return an error as well, if
226 dlerror returns NULL.
228 * testgmodule.c: Thanks to the above change the #ifdefs have
231 2000-10-15 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
233 * Makefile.am (BUILT_EXTRA_DIST): New variable.
234 (dist-hook): Handle $(BUILT_EXTRA_DIST).
236 2000-09-28 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
238 * gmodule.h: Moved declaration of g_log_domain_gmodule up before
239 the inclusion of glib.h to make it compile on non-gcc compilers.
241 2000-07-22 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
243 * makefile.mingw.in: Remove leftover gmodule-win32res.o stuff. The
244 build-dll script automagically handles resources.
246 2000-07-20 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
248 * libgplugin_a.c, testgmodule.c: Use g_path_get_basename instead
249 of the deprecated g_basename.
251 2000-07-19 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
253 * gmodule.h: include glib.h before doing extern "C". Makes some C++
254 compiler happy. Reported by Denis Vakatov
255 <vakatov@peony.nlm.nih.gov>.
257 2000-07-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
259 * gmodule-win32.c: Don't #include <tlhelp32.h> when compiling with
260 gcc, as it isn't provided. Declaration of a needed struct (from
261 www.microsoft.com) inserted instead.
263 2000-05-13 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
265 * makefile.mingw.in: New file, with gmodule stuff
266 moved from ../makefile.mingw.in.
268 * Makefile.am: Add to EXTRA_DIST, and add rule to make makefile.mingw.
270 2000-05-02 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
272 * gmodule-win32.c: No need to include <psapi.h>
274 2000-03-23 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
276 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_symbol): When looking for symbols in
277 the "main" module we must search both the main program and all
278 currently loaded DLLs. Not only the main program, or even just the
279 DLLs loaded as gmodules. Libglade requires this.
281 Thus we need to get a list of all modules in the current
282 process. There are two alternative APIs to do this: PSAPI and
283 Toolhelp. The former is only available on NT (including Win2k),
284 the latter on Win9x and Win2k. Check which one works, and use
287 First check for the symbol in the main program, and if not found
288 there, in all the modules.
290 Code for using PSAPI and Toolhelp was borrowed from the Dr. Mingw
291 tool written by José Fonseca <em96115@fe.up.pt>. Thanks.
293 2000-03-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
295 * gmodule-win32.c: Call g_win32_error_message() to get the error
300 * gmodule.c: Remove LibMain functions that were needed by LCC,
301 which is not a supported compiler.
303 * testgmodule.c (main): Test for G_MODULE_IMPL ==
304 G_MODULE_IMPL_WIN32, not G_OS_WIN32.
306 * gmoduleconf.h.win32: Remove LCC stuff from here, too.
308 Wed Mar 1 05:34:47 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
310 * gmodule-beos.c (_g_module_symbol): do not return NULL symbols.
312 * gmodule-os2.c: removed NetBSD specific defines.
313 (_g_module_self): set an error message for unsupported behaviour.
315 * gmodule-beos.c: many coding style fixups.
319 (_g_module_symbol): bunch of memory leaks plugged.
321 * gmodule-dl.c: make sure the error message returned from dlerror()
322 is always != NULL, by using a wrapper function fetch_dlerror(). based
323 on a patch to fix _g_module_symbol() for NetBSD from Scott Presnell
326 * gmodule-dld.c: minor indentation.
328 * gmodule-win32.c: minor cleanups.
330 * merges from glib-1-2.
332 Sat Feb 19 19:43:29 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
334 * testgmodule.c (main): added test to check that not yet bound symbols
335 in shared libraries of the main module are retrievable, from David Gero.
337 2000-01-13 Martin Baulig <martin@home-of-linux.org>
339 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): Check whether `check_init' is not NULL
340 before we attempt to call it.
342 Sun Oct 3 19:30:52 PDT 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
345 * testgmodule.c: use G_OS stuff
347 Sat Jul 24 20:47:18 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
349 * merged changes from GLib-1-2 branch.
351 1999-05-06 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
353 * gmodule.c: Remove LibMain.
355 Sat May 1 10:58:57 PDT 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
357 * Makefile.am: use -avoid-version and -module for test plugins
359 Mon Apr 19 08:43:59 1999 ape@lrdpf.spacetec.no (Asbjorn Pettersen)
361 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add gmodule-os2.c
363 Wed Apr 7 20:12:58 1999 ape@lrdpf.spacetec.no (Asbjorn Pettersen)
365 * gmodule-os2.c: OS/2 specific file for gmodule.
366 * gmodule.c (_g_module_open): Add gmodule-os2.c if G_MODULE_IMPL_OS2.
367 * gmoduleconf.h.in: Add G_MODULE_IMPL_OS2.
369 Fri Apr 23 09:03:48 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
371 * gmodule.c (g_module_symbol): removed inline variable assignment.
372 s/CHECK_ERROR/SUPPORT_OR_RETURN/ to make the code more self descriptive.
374 Wed Feb 10 12:06:30 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
376 * gmodule.c (CHECK_ERROR): be more descriptive on unsupported systems.
378 Wed Feb 10 07:56:33 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
380 * gmodule.c (g_module_error): fixed errernerous code wrt to thread
381 specific error string allocation handling.
383 Thu Jan 21 12:40:11 EST 1999 Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
385 * gmodule-dl.c (_g_module_build_path):
386 Add braces to eliminate an ambiguous else warning.
388 1999-01-16 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
390 * gmodule-dl.c gmodule-dld.c: In
391 _g_module_build_path, don't add the "lib" prefix and
392 ".so" or ".sl" suffix if already there.
394 * gmodule-win32.c: Likewise for the ".dll" suffix.
396 1998-12-10 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
398 * gmodule.c: Made it MT safe, the g_module_error() is now thread
401 Fri Nov 20 14:43:44 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
403 * gmodule.c (_g_module_build_path): added empty default imlementation
404 so gmodule.so compiles on systems that are not yet supported, fix from
405 Erik Bagfors <bagfors@hpc2n.umu.se>.
407 1998-11-13 Nuno Ferreira <nmrf@rnl.ist.utl.pt>
409 * Makefile.am (INCLUDES): The previous commit message is wrong
410 about the -I$(top_srcdir) being redundant. I put it back.
412 Wed Nov 11 23:23:22 EST 1998 Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
414 * Makefile.am : INCLUDES is the right way to add to CFLAGS, not
415 DEFS. Also there are bugs with '+=' in makefiles.
416 Got rid of DEFS line by moving G_LOG_DOMAIN setting into INCLUDES.
417 Removed redundant -I from INCLUDES.
419 Tue Oct 27 04:00:11 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
421 * testgmodule.c (main): changed the #ifdef WIN32 test to NATIVE_WIN32,
422 this needs to be more constistent throughout the code, do we go for
423 NATIVE_WIN32 or WIN32?
425 * gmodule.c (LibMain): special cased the #ifdef __LCC__ case for
426 NATIVE_WIN32, since lcc maybe used on other platforms as well.
427 * libgplugin_a.c (LibMain):
428 * libgplugin_b.c (LibMain):
429 likewise. not sure i like this special requirement for lcc in here.
431 * gmodule-dl.c (_g_module_build_path):
432 feature empty "" directories and prepend the module name with "lib".
434 * gmodule-dld.c (_g_module_build_path):
435 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path):
436 feature empty "" directories.
438 * we need some more magic in the _g_module_build_path variants
439 so we don't append/prepend lib and .so, .sl or .dll for those names
440 that already contain it.
442 * applied patch from Tor Lillqvist for g_module_build_path() and
445 1998-10-20: Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
447 * gmodule/gmodule-win32.c:
450 * gmodule/gmodule.c gmodule/gmodule.h:
451 Added the funcion g_module_build_path that builds the path to
452 a module file, decorating the name according to the system's
453 conventions. Added the Windows implementation.
455 * gmodule/libgplugin_a.c gmodule/libgplugin_b.c:
456 Added LibMain for LCC-Win32.
458 * gmodule/testgmodule.c:
459 Handle Windows dll names.
461 1998-10-25 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
463 * gmodule.h: Remove `#pragma }'.
464 * gmoduleconf.h.in: Likewise.
466 Wed Oct 21 19:58:27 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
468 * gmodule.c (g_module_symbol): fixed a string pointer bug that could
469 cause garbage error messages from g_module_symbol() for systems that
472 Mon Sep 21 01:54:48 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
475 * gmodule.c: renamed old _de_init functionality to _unload.
476 modules are now expected to export:
477 G_MODULE_EXPORT const gchar* g_module_check_init (GModule *module);
479 G_MODULE_EXPORT void g_module_unload (GModule *module);
480 returning a string other than NULL from g_module_check_init() will
481 prevent the module from being loaded. a call to g_module_make_resident()
482 from g_module_unload() will prevent the module from being unloaded and
483 still make it resident.
485 Thu Sep 17 06:34:22 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
488 * gmodule.c: implemented g_module_make_resident() which can be
489 used to make modules resident.
490 fixed a buglet about the optional "g_module_de_init" function in
491 modules, which could get invoked twice on very obscure occasions.
493 Tue Sep 15 14:57:30 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
495 * Makefile.am: Update to libtool-1.2b,
496 change library versioning scheme to drop LT_RELEASE
497 from the -l line, while keeping it in the soname.
499 Thu Aug 20 07:08:16 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
501 * gmodule.c: provide no operation implementation for the underlying
502 _g_module_* functions, so we at least compile on systems that have
503 neither of G_MODULE_IMPL_DL or G_MODULE_IMPL_DLD.
505 Mon Aug 17 03:41:52 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
508 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): changed the return type for the
509 GModuleCheckInit function to be a string, describing the error
511 (g_module_symbol): show the failing symbol on error messages.
513 Fri Aug 14 02:24:39 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
515 * Makefile.am: feature the G_LOG_DOMAIN macro to set the log domain
516 to "GModule" upon compilation. we currently have to add this definition
517 to the DEFS variable.
518 * testgmodule.c: we need an ugly #undef G_LOG_DOMAIN at the start
519 of this file currently, since automake doesn't support per target
522 Mon Aug 10 03:35:57 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
524 * gmodule.c: minor changes to internal interface.
526 * gmodule-dld.c: put some comments into the files, and provided
527 better error checking for shl_findsym(). whish i had a system to
530 Mon Aug 10 02:18:31 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
532 * Makefile.am (lib_LTLIBRARIES): for now, skip the dependency on
533 -lglib for libgmodule-1.1.la, libgplugin_a.la and libgplugin_b.la
534 since this clashes with inter-library-dependencies for not installed
535 libraries. glib-config takes care of this for the usuall case, but
536 there needs to be a better way...
538 Sun Aug 9 15:57:38 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
540 * testgmodule.c: test program for GModule.
542 * libgplugin_b.c: test plugins for testgmodule.c.
545 * gmodule.c: GModule library implementation, which is basically
546 a wrapper about system specifc dynamic loading facilities.
548 Sun Aug 9 10:31:05 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
550 * ChangeLog start for gmodule.
