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

18 * === Released 2.6.0 ===
20 2004-12-06 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>

34 2004-11-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
36 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_open): Argument is in UTF-8. Use wide
37 character Win32 API if present.
39 * gmodule.c (parse_libtool_archive, g_module_open): Convert file
40 name to UTF-8 before storing in the error message string.
42 * gmodule.c (parse_libtool_archive): Use g_open().

77 2004-03-31 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
79 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path): On Cygwin, use the "cyg"
80 prefix, and accept also the normal "lib". (#138403, Roger Leigh)
82 Tue Feb 24 14:09:21 2004 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
84 * === Released 2.3.3 ===
86 Sun Feb 22 02:28:43 2004 Matthias Clasen <maclas@gmx.de>
88 Bug #85930, Laurent Vivier:
90 * gmodule-ar.c: Implementation of native module management for AIX.
92 * gmodule.c: Support gmodule-ar.c
94 2003-01-01 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
96 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path): Use g_ascii_strcasecmp().
98 Tue Dec 3 20:56:19 2002 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
100 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): Properly refcount the
101 main module if it is already open. (#98648)
103 Sat Mar 2 14:46:17 2002 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
105 * gmodule-beos.c (_g_module_build_path) * gmodule-dyld.c (_g_module_build_path)
106 gmodule-dl.c (_g_module_build_path): Use G_MODULE_SUFFIX rather than
107 a hardcoded ".so". (#72803)
109 Sun Feb 17 18:15:22 2002 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
111 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): Fix typo when checking
112 if file + module_suffix exists. (Miroslaw Dobrzanski-Neumann,
115 2001-11-24 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
117 * Makefile.am: Remove rule for testgmodule.exp, too.
119 2001-11-22 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
121 * gmodule-win32.c: Current w32api headers do include tlhelp32.h,
122 so no need to have an extract from it here.
124 Mon Nov 19 16:12:12 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
126 * Makefile.am makefile.msc.in makefile.mingw.in: Remove
127 testgmodule and associated plugin files; we don't need _both_ this
128 and ../tests/module-test.c
130 2001-11-16 Michael Meeks <michael@ximian.com>
132 * gmodule.c (parse_libtool_archive): fix leak.
134 2001-10-30 Dan Winship <danw@ximian.com>
136 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add gmodule-dyld.c
138 2001-10-23 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
140 * Makefile.am: (Win32): If we have built the MSVC import library,
141 install it. Install the gcc import library. Also support
144 2001-10-09 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
146 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path): More Unix compatibility:
147 Add "lib" prefix in case the module name doesn't already have it,
148 except if it ends with ".dll" (in which case it probably already
149 is the name of an existing DLL). This is needed for instance for
150 the gdk-pixbuf loaders, which are called "lib*.dll", but
151 gdk-pixbuf-io calls g_module_build_path without the "lib" prefix.
153 2001-10-03 jacob berkman <jacob@ximian.com>
155 * libgplugin_a.c: (gplugin_a_module_func):
156 * gmodule.h: s/retrive/retrieve/
158 2001-09-25 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
160 * makefile.mingw.in: Fix missing end @ in @LT_CURRENT@.
162 * makefile.msc.in: Use same DLL and import library names as
165 2001-09-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
167 * gmodule.rc.in: Correct InternalName and OriginalFilename to
168 match what we actually produce.
170 2001-09-18 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
172 * Makefile.am: On Win32, pass a dummy -rpath flag to libtool when
173 building libgplugin_[ab].la, otherwise libtool doesn't create a
174 DLL, but a static archive.
176 2001-07-20 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>
178 * makefile.msc.in : reflect glib move
180 2001-05-21 Mark Murnane <Mark.Murnane@ireland.sun.com>
182 * gmodule.c (g_str_check_suffix): Modified type of string_len
183 and suffix_len to be gsize. Properly accommodates return from
186 2001-05-29 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
188 * gmodule.c (g_module_set_error_unduped): Do not g_strdup, as
189 promised in the function name.
191 Tue May 29 12:57:51 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
193 * gmodule.c (g_module_symbol): erk, strconcat needs NULL as last arg.
194 make sure we pass module name with suffix into backend open.
196 Mon May 28 20:19:25 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
198 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): as a last resort, if we can't access()
199 the module, leave it up to the platform backends to find it.
200 (fixes implicit search patch loading i broke with my last
201 commit, spotted by Padraig O'Briain).
203 Thu May 24 03:43:12 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
205 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): reordered code so we have a single
206 module loading point (for reliable error messages). do access()
207 tests to figure plausible file names.
208 make error messages more verbose so users canfigure what's going on.
210 2001-04-20 Dan Winship <danw@ximian.com>
212 * gmodule-dyld.c: gmodule implementation for Darwin/Mac OS X
215 * gmoduleconf.h.in: Add gmodule-dyld support
217 * testgmodule.c (main): Fix spelling
219 2001-03-13 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
221 From Edward M. Lee <tailbert@yahoo.com>:
223 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path): use (cygwin friendly) dir
226 2001-03-12 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
228 * Makefile.am (libgplugin_a_la_LIBADD, libgplugin_b_la_LIBADD):
229 Link with the libgmodule la only on Win32.
231 2001-03-10 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
233 * Makefile.am: Use the _LIBADD dependency on libglib only on the
234 Win32 platform (including Cygwin).
236 2001-03-07 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
238 * Makefile.am, makefile.mingw.in, makefile.msc.in: Set
239 G_LOG_DOMAIN to \"GModule\" instead of g_log_domain_gmodule.
241 * gmodule.def, gmodule.h, gmodule.c: Removed g_log_domain_gmodule.
243 2001-02-21 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
245 * gmodule.h: Use G_BEGIN_DECLS and G_END_DECLS. Define
246 G_MODULE_EXPORT correctly on Cygwin, too.
248 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_open): Convert path to Windows format
251 * Makefile.am (libglib): Use libglib-1.3.la from
252 top_builddir. Invoke libtool with -no-undefined for Win32 and
255 2001-02-17 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>
257 Applied patch from Soeren Sandmann:
259 * gmodule.c (g_module_error): G_CONST_RETURN
260 (g_module_name): G_CONST_RETURN
262 Sat Feb 17 07:27:15 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
264 * gmodule.c: work around platforms that have broken RTLD_GLOBAL.
266 2001-01-27 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
268 * gmodule.c: (Win32) Need <io.h> for open() and close().
270 2000-12-22 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
272 * gmodule.c: Make g_module_open more tolerant wrt to the module
273 name. First it tries to open the module as named, if that fails,
274 it checks, whether it is a libtool archive and parses it, if that
275 fails it appends the systems shared library suffix
276 (i.e. ".so") (if not already found) and tries again and if that
277 fails it tries to append the ".la" libtool suffix (if not already
278 found) and parses it.
280 * gmodule.c: Lock recursive mutex during most module functions for
283 * gmodule-dl.c: Return an error from _g_module_symbol only, if
284 dlerror says so. All other functions return an error as well, if
285 dlerror returns NULL.
287 * testgmodule.c: Thanks to the above change the #ifdefs have
290 2000-10-15 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
292 * Makefile.am (BUILT_EXTRA_DIST): New variable.
293 (dist-hook): Handle $(BUILT_EXTRA_DIST).
295 2000-09-28 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
297 * gmodule.h: Moved declaration of g_log_domain_gmodule up before
298 the inclusion of glib.h to make it compile on non-gcc compilers.
300 2000-07-22 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
302 * makefile.mingw.in: Remove leftover gmodule-win32res.o stuff. The
303 build-dll script automagically handles resources.
305 2000-07-20 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
307 * libgplugin_a.c, testgmodule.c: Use g_path_get_basename instead
308 of the deprecated g_basename.
310 2000-07-19 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
312 * gmodule.h: include glib.h before doing extern "C". Makes some C++
313 compiler happy. Reported by Denis Vakatov
314 <vakatov@peony.nlm.nih.gov>.
316 2000-07-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
318 * gmodule-win32.c: Don't #include <tlhelp32.h> when compiling with
319 gcc, as it isn't provided. Declaration of a needed struct (from
320 www.microsoft.com) inserted instead.
322 2000-05-13 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
324 * makefile.mingw.in: New file, with gmodule stuff
325 moved from ../makefile.mingw.in.
327 * Makefile.am: Add to EXTRA_DIST, and add rule to make makefile.mingw.
329 2000-05-02 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
331 * gmodule-win32.c: No need to include <psapi.h>
333 2000-03-23 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
335 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_symbol): When looking for symbols in
336 the "main" module we must search both the main program and all
337 currently loaded DLLs. Not only the main program, or even just the
338 DLLs loaded as gmodules. Libglade requires this.
340 Thus we need to get a list of all modules in the current
341 process. There are two alternative APIs to do this: PSAPI and
342 Toolhelp. The former is only available on NT (including Win2k),
343 the latter on Win9x and Win2k. Check which one works, and use
346 First check for the symbol in the main program, and if not found
347 there, in all the modules.
349 Code for using PSAPI and Toolhelp was borrowed from the Dr. Mingw
350 tool written by José Fonseca <em96115@fe.up.pt>. Thanks.
352 2000-03-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
354 * gmodule-win32.c: Call g_win32_error_message() to get the error
359 * gmodule.c: Remove LibMain functions that were needed by LCC,
360 which is not a supported compiler.
362 * testgmodule.c (main): Test for G_MODULE_IMPL ==
363 G_MODULE_IMPL_WIN32, not G_OS_WIN32.
365 * gmoduleconf.h.win32: Remove LCC stuff from here, too.
367 Wed Mar 1 05:34:47 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
369 * gmodule-beos.c (_g_module_symbol): do not return NULL symbols.
371 * gmodule-os2.c: removed NetBSD specific defines.
372 (_g_module_self): set an error message for unsupported behaviour.
374 * gmodule-beos.c: many coding style fixups.
378 (_g_module_symbol): bunch of memory leaks plugged.
380 * gmodule-dl.c: make sure the error message returned from dlerror()
381 is always != NULL, by using a wrapper function fetch_dlerror(). based
382 on a patch to fix _g_module_symbol() for NetBSD from Scott Presnell
385 * gmodule-dld.c: minor indentation.
387 * gmodule-win32.c: minor cleanups.
389 * merges from glib-1-2.
391 Sat Feb 19 19:43:29 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
393 * testgmodule.c (main): added test to check that not yet bound symbols
394 in shared libraries of the main module are retrievable, from David Gero.
396 2000-01-13 Martin Baulig <martin@home-of-linux.org>
398 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): Check whether `check_init' is not NULL
399 before we attempt to call it.
401 Sun Oct 3 19:30:52 PDT 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
404 * testgmodule.c: use G_OS stuff
406 Sat Jul 24 20:47:18 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
408 * merged changes from GLib-1-2 branch.
410 1999-05-06 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
412 * gmodule.c: Remove LibMain.
414 Sat May 1 10:58:57 PDT 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
416 * Makefile.am: use -avoid-version and -module for test plugins
418 Mon Apr 19 08:43:59 1999 ape@lrdpf.spacetec.no (Asbjorn Pettersen)
420 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add gmodule-os2.c
422 Wed Apr 7 20:12:58 1999 ape@lrdpf.spacetec.no (Asbjorn Pettersen)
424 * gmodule-os2.c: OS/2 specific file for gmodule.
425 * gmodule.c (_g_module_open): Add gmodule-os2.c if G_MODULE_IMPL_OS2.
426 * gmoduleconf.h.in: Add G_MODULE_IMPL_OS2.
428 Fri Apr 23 09:03:48 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
430 * gmodule.c (g_module_symbol): removed inline variable assignment.
431 s/CHECK_ERROR/SUPPORT_OR_RETURN/ to make the code more self descriptive.
433 Wed Feb 10 12:06:30 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
435 * gmodule.c (CHECK_ERROR): be more descriptive on unsupported systems.
437 Wed Feb 10 07:56:33 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
439 * gmodule.c (g_module_error): fixed errernerous code wrt to thread
440 specific error string allocation handling.
442 Thu Jan 21 12:40:11 EST 1999 Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
444 * gmodule-dl.c (_g_module_build_path):
445 Add braces to eliminate an ambiguous else warning.
447 1999-01-16 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
449 * gmodule-dl.c gmodule-dld.c: In
450 _g_module_build_path, don't add the "lib" prefix and
451 ".so" or ".sl" suffix if already there.
453 * gmodule-win32.c: Likewise for the ".dll" suffix.
455 1998-12-10 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
457 * gmodule.c: Made it MT safe, the g_module_error() is now thread
460 Fri Nov 20 14:43:44 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
462 * gmodule.c (_g_module_build_path): added empty default imlementation
463 so gmodule.so compiles on systems that are not yet supported, fix from
464 Erik Bagfors <bagfors@hpc2n.umu.se>.
466 1998-11-13 Nuno Ferreira <nmrf@rnl.ist.utl.pt>
468 * Makefile.am (INCLUDES): The previous commit message is wrong
469 about the -I$(top_srcdir) being redundant. I put it back.
471 Wed Nov 11 23:23:22 EST 1998 Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
473 * Makefile.am : INCLUDES is the right way to add to CFLAGS, not
474 DEFS. Also there are bugs with '+=' in makefiles.
475 Got rid of DEFS line by moving G_LOG_DOMAIN setting into INCLUDES.
476 Removed redundant -I from INCLUDES.
478 Tue Oct 27 04:00:11 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
480 * testgmodule.c (main): changed the #ifdef WIN32 test to NATIVE_WIN32,
481 this needs to be more constistent throughout the code, do we go for
482 NATIVE_WIN32 or WIN32?
484 * gmodule.c (LibMain): special cased the #ifdef __LCC__ case for
485 NATIVE_WIN32, since lcc maybe used on other platforms as well.
486 * libgplugin_a.c (LibMain):
487 * libgplugin_b.c (LibMain):
488 likewise. not sure i like this special requirement for lcc in here.
490 * gmodule-dl.c (_g_module_build_path):
491 feature empty "" directories and prepend the module name with "lib".
493 * gmodule-dld.c (_g_module_build_path):
494 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path):
495 feature empty "" directories.
497 * we need some more magic in the _g_module_build_path variants
498 so we don't append/prepend lib and .so, .sl or .dll for those names
499 that already contain it.
501 * applied patch from Tor Lillqvist for g_module_build_path() and
504 1998-10-20: Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
506 * gmodule/gmodule-win32.c:
509 * gmodule/gmodule.c gmodule/gmodule.h:
510 Added the funcion g_module_build_path that builds the path to
511 a module file, decorating the name according to the system's
512 conventions. Added the Windows implementation.
514 * gmodule/libgplugin_a.c gmodule/libgplugin_b.c:
515 Added LibMain for LCC-Win32.
517 * gmodule/testgmodule.c:
518 Handle Windows dll names.
520 1998-10-25 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
522 * gmodule.h: Remove `#pragma }'.
523 * gmoduleconf.h.in: Likewise.
525 Wed Oct 21 19:58:27 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
527 * gmodule.c (g_module_symbol): fixed a string pointer bug that could
528 cause garbage error messages from g_module_symbol() for systems that
531 Mon Sep 21 01:54:48 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
534 * gmodule.c: renamed old _de_init functionality to _unload.
535 modules are now expected to export:
536 G_MODULE_EXPORT const gchar* g_module_check_init (GModule *module);
538 G_MODULE_EXPORT void g_module_unload (GModule *module);
539 returning a string other than NULL from g_module_check_init() will
540 prevent the module from being loaded. a call to g_module_make_resident()
541 from g_module_unload() will prevent the module from being unloaded and
542 still make it resident.
544 Thu Sep 17 06:34:22 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
547 * gmodule.c: implemented g_module_make_resident() which can be
548 used to make modules resident.
549 fixed a buglet about the optional "g_module_de_init" function in
550 modules, which could get invoked twice on very obscure occasions.
552 Tue Sep 15 14:57:30 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
554 * Makefile.am: Update to libtool-1.2b,
555 change library versioning scheme to drop LT_RELEASE
556 from the -l line, while keeping it in the soname.
558 Thu Aug 20 07:08:16 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
560 * gmodule.c: provide no operation implementation for the underlying
561 _g_module_* functions, so we at least compile on systems that have
562 neither of G_MODULE_IMPL_DL or G_MODULE_IMPL_DLD.
564 Mon Aug 17 03:41:52 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
567 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): changed the return type for the
568 GModuleCheckInit function to be a string, describing the error
570 (g_module_symbol): show the failing symbol on error messages.
572 Fri Aug 14 02:24:39 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
574 * Makefile.am: feature the G_LOG_DOMAIN macro to set the log domain
575 to "GModule" upon compilation. we currently have to add this definition
576 to the DEFS variable.
577 * testgmodule.c: we need an ugly #undef G_LOG_DOMAIN at the start
578 of this file currently, since automake doesn't support per target
