34 2004-03-31 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
36 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path): On Cygwin, use the "cyg"

45 Bug #85930, Laurent Vivier:
47 * gmodule-ar.c: Implementation of native module management for AIX.
49 * gmodule.c: Support gmodule-ar.c
51 2003-01-01 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
53 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path): Use g_ascii_strcasecmp().
55 Tue Dec 3 20:56:19 2002 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
57 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): Properly refcount the
58 main module if it is already open. (#98648)
60 Sat Mar 2 14:46:17 2002 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
62 * gmodule-beos.c (_g_module_build_path) * gmodule-dyld.c (_g_module_build_path)
63 gmodule-dl.c (_g_module_build_path): Use G_MODULE_SUFFIX rather than
64 a hardcoded ".so". (#72803)
66 Sun Feb 17 18:15:22 2002 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
68 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): Fix typo when checking
69 if file + module_suffix exists. (Miroslaw Dobrzanski-Neumann,
72 2001-11-24 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
74 * Makefile.am: Remove rule for testgmodule.exp, too.
76 2001-11-22 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
78 * gmodule-win32.c: Current w32api headers do include tlhelp32.h,
79 so no need to have an extract from it here.
81 Mon Nov 19 16:12:12 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
83 * Makefile.am makefile.msc.in makefile.mingw.in: Remove
84 testgmodule and associated plugin files; we don't need _both_ this
85 and ../tests/module-test.c
87 2001-11-16 Michael Meeks <michael@ximian.com>
89 * gmodule.c (parse_libtool_archive): fix leak.
91 2001-10-30 Dan Winship <danw@ximian.com>
93 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add gmodule-dyld.c
95 2001-10-23 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
97 * Makefile.am: (Win32): If we have built the MSVC import library,
98 install it. Install the gcc import library. Also support
101 2001-10-09 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
103 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path): More Unix compatibility:
104 Add "lib" prefix in case the module name doesn't already have it,
105 except if it ends with ".dll" (in which case it probably already
106 is the name of an existing DLL). This is needed for instance for
107 the gdk-pixbuf loaders, which are called "lib*.dll", but
108 gdk-pixbuf-io calls g_module_build_path without the "lib" prefix.
110 2001-10-03 jacob berkman <jacob@ximian.com>
112 * libgplugin_a.c: (gplugin_a_module_func):
113 * gmodule.h: s/retrive/retrieve/
115 2001-09-25 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
117 * makefile.mingw.in: Fix missing end @ in @LT_CURRENT@.
119 * makefile.msc.in: Use same DLL and import library names as
122 2001-09-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
124 * gmodule.rc.in: Correct InternalName and OriginalFilename to
125 match what we actually produce.
127 2001-09-18 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
129 * Makefile.am: On Win32, pass a dummy -rpath flag to libtool when
130 building libgplugin_[ab].la, otherwise libtool doesn't create a
131 DLL, but a static archive.
133 2001-07-20 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>
135 * makefile.msc.in : reflect glib move
137 2001-05-21 Mark Murnane <Mark.Murnane@ireland.sun.com>
139 * gmodule.c (g_str_check_suffix): Modified type of string_len
140 and suffix_len to be gsize. Properly accommodates return from
143 2001-05-29 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
145 * gmodule.c (g_module_set_error_unduped): Do not g_strdup, as
146 promised in the function name.
148 Tue May 29 12:57:51 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
150 * gmodule.c (g_module_symbol): erk, strconcat needs NULL as last arg.
151 make sure we pass module name with suffix into backend open.
153 Mon May 28 20:19:25 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
155 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): as a last resort, if we can't access()
156 the module, leave it up to the platform backends to find it.
157 (fixes implicit search patch loading i broke with my last
158 commit, spotted by Padraig O'Briain).
160 Thu May 24 03:43:12 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
162 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): reordered code so we have a single
163 module loading point (for reliable error messages). do access()
164 tests to figure plausible file names.
165 make error messages more verbose so users canfigure what's going on.
167 2001-04-20 Dan Winship <danw@ximian.com>
169 * gmodule-dyld.c: gmodule implementation for Darwin/Mac OS X
172 * gmoduleconf.h.in: Add gmodule-dyld support
174 * testgmodule.c (main): Fix spelling
176 2001-03-13 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
178 From Edward M. Lee <tailbert@yahoo.com>:
180 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path): use (cygwin friendly) dir
183 2001-03-12 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
185 * Makefile.am (libgplugin_a_la_LIBADD, libgplugin_b_la_LIBADD):
186 Link with the libgmodule la only on Win32.
188 2001-03-10 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
190 * Makefile.am: Use the _LIBADD dependency on libglib only on the
191 Win32 platform (including Cygwin).
193 2001-03-07 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
195 * Makefile.am, makefile.mingw.in, makefile.msc.in: Set
196 G_LOG_DOMAIN to \"GModule\" instead of g_log_domain_gmodule.
198 * gmodule.def, gmodule.h, gmodule.c: Removed g_log_domain_gmodule.
200 2001-02-21 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
202 * gmodule.h: Use G_BEGIN_DECLS and G_END_DECLS. Define
203 G_MODULE_EXPORT correctly on Cygwin, too.
205 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_open): Convert path to Windows format
208 * Makefile.am (libglib): Use libglib-1.3.la from
209 top_builddir. Invoke libtool with -no-undefined for Win32 and
212 2001-02-17 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>
214 Applied patch from Soeren Sandmann:
216 * gmodule.c (g_module_error): G_CONST_RETURN
217 (g_module_name): G_CONST_RETURN
219 Sat Feb 17 07:27:15 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
221 * gmodule.c: work around platforms that have broken RTLD_GLOBAL.
223 2001-01-27 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
225 * gmodule.c: (Win32) Need <io.h> for open() and close().
227 2000-12-22 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
229 * gmodule.c: Make g_module_open more tolerant wrt to the module
230 name. First it tries to open the module as named, if that fails,
231 it checks, whether it is a libtool archive and parses it, if that
232 fails it appends the systems shared library suffix
233 (i.e. ".so") (if not already found) and tries again and if that
234 fails it tries to append the ".la" libtool suffix (if not already
235 found) and parses it.
237 * gmodule.c: Lock recursive mutex during most module functions for
240 * gmodule-dl.c: Return an error from _g_module_symbol only, if
241 dlerror says so. All other functions return an error as well, if
242 dlerror returns NULL.
244 * testgmodule.c: Thanks to the above change the #ifdefs have
247 2000-10-15 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
249 * Makefile.am (BUILT_EXTRA_DIST): New variable.
250 (dist-hook): Handle $(BUILT_EXTRA_DIST).
252 2000-09-28 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
254 * gmodule.h: Moved declaration of g_log_domain_gmodule up before
255 the inclusion of glib.h to make it compile on non-gcc compilers.
257 2000-07-22 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
259 * makefile.mingw.in: Remove leftover gmodule-win32res.o stuff. The
260 build-dll script automagically handles resources.
262 2000-07-20 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
264 * libgplugin_a.c, testgmodule.c: Use g_path_get_basename instead
265 of the deprecated g_basename.
267 2000-07-19 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
269 * gmodule.h: include glib.h before doing extern "C". Makes some C++
270 compiler happy. Reported by Denis Vakatov
271 <vakatov@peony.nlm.nih.gov>.
273 2000-07-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
275 * gmodule-win32.c: Don't #include <tlhelp32.h> when compiling with
276 gcc, as it isn't provided. Declaration of a needed struct (from
277 www.microsoft.com) inserted instead.
279 2000-05-13 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
281 * makefile.mingw.in: New file, with gmodule stuff
282 moved from ../makefile.mingw.in.
284 * Makefile.am: Add to EXTRA_DIST, and add rule to make makefile.mingw.
286 2000-05-02 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
288 * gmodule-win32.c: No need to include <psapi.h>
290 2000-03-23 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
292 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_symbol): When looking for symbols in
293 the "main" module we must search both the main program and all
294 currently loaded DLLs. Not only the main program, or even just the
295 DLLs loaded as gmodules. Libglade requires this.
297 Thus we need to get a list of all modules in the current
298 process. There are two alternative APIs to do this: PSAPI and
299 Toolhelp. The former is only available on NT (including Win2k),
300 the latter on Win9x and Win2k. Check which one works, and use
303 First check for the symbol in the main program, and if not found
304 there, in all the modules.
306 Code for using PSAPI and Toolhelp was borrowed from the Dr. Mingw
307 tool written by José Fonseca <em96115@fe.up.pt>. Thanks.
309 2000-03-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
311 * gmodule-win32.c: Call g_win32_error_message() to get the error
316 * gmodule.c: Remove LibMain functions that were needed by LCC,
317 which is not a supported compiler.
319 * testgmodule.c (main): Test for G_MODULE_IMPL ==
320 G_MODULE_IMPL_WIN32, not G_OS_WIN32.
322 * gmoduleconf.h.win32: Remove LCC stuff from here, too.
324 Wed Mar 1 05:34:47 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
326 * gmodule-beos.c (_g_module_symbol): do not return NULL symbols.
328 * gmodule-os2.c: removed NetBSD specific defines.
329 (_g_module_self): set an error message for unsupported behaviour.
331 * gmodule-beos.c: many coding style fixups.
335 (_g_module_symbol): bunch of memory leaks plugged.
337 * gmodule-dl.c: make sure the error message returned from dlerror()
338 is always != NULL, by using a wrapper function fetch_dlerror(). based
339 on a patch to fix _g_module_symbol() for NetBSD from Scott Presnell
342 * gmodule-dld.c: minor indentation.
344 * gmodule-win32.c: minor cleanups.
346 * merges from glib-1-2.
348 Sat Feb 19 19:43:29 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
350 * testgmodule.c (main): added test to check that not yet bound symbols
351 in shared libraries of the main module are retrievable, from David Gero.
353 2000-01-13 Martin Baulig <martin@home-of-linux.org>
355 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): Check whether `check_init' is not NULL
356 before we attempt to call it.
358 Sun Oct 3 19:30:52 PDT 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
361 * testgmodule.c: use G_OS stuff
363 Sat Jul 24 20:47:18 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
365 * merged changes from GLib-1-2 branch.
367 1999-05-06 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
369 * gmodule.c: Remove LibMain.
371 Sat May 1 10:58:57 PDT 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
373 * Makefile.am: use -avoid-version and -module for test plugins
375 Mon Apr 19 08:43:59 1999 ape@lrdpf.spacetec.no (Asbjorn Pettersen)
377 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add gmodule-os2.c
379 Wed Apr 7 20:12:58 1999 ape@lrdpf.spacetec.no (Asbjorn Pettersen)
381 * gmodule-os2.c: OS/2 specific file for gmodule.
382 * gmodule.c (_g_module_open): Add gmodule-os2.c if G_MODULE_IMPL_OS2.
383 * gmoduleconf.h.in: Add G_MODULE_IMPL_OS2.
385 Fri Apr 23 09:03:48 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
387 * gmodule.c (g_module_symbol): removed inline variable assignment.
388 s/CHECK_ERROR/SUPPORT_OR_RETURN/ to make the code more self descriptive.
390 Wed Feb 10 12:06:30 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
392 * gmodule.c (CHECK_ERROR): be more descriptive on unsupported systems.
394 Wed Feb 10 07:56:33 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
396 * gmodule.c (g_module_error): fixed errernerous code wrt to thread
397 specific error string allocation handling.
399 Thu Jan 21 12:40:11 EST 1999 Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
401 * gmodule-dl.c (_g_module_build_path):
402 Add braces to eliminate an ambiguous else warning.
404 1999-01-16 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
406 * gmodule-dl.c gmodule-dld.c: In
407 _g_module_build_path, don't add the "lib" prefix and
408 ".so" or ".sl" suffix if already there.
410 * gmodule-win32.c: Likewise for the ".dll" suffix.
412 1998-12-10 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
414 * gmodule.c: Made it MT safe, the g_module_error() is now thread
417 Fri Nov 20 14:43:44 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
419 * gmodule.c (_g_module_build_path): added empty default imlementation
420 so gmodule.so compiles on systems that are not yet supported, fix from
421 Erik Bagfors <bagfors@hpc2n.umu.se>.
423 1998-11-13 Nuno Ferreira <nmrf@rnl.ist.utl.pt>
425 * Makefile.am (INCLUDES): The previous commit message is wrong
426 about the -I$(top_srcdir) being redundant. I put it back.
428 Wed Nov 11 23:23:22 EST 1998 Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
430 * Makefile.am : INCLUDES is the right way to add to CFLAGS, not
431 DEFS. Also there are bugs with '+=' in makefiles.
432 Got rid of DEFS line by moving G_LOG_DOMAIN setting into INCLUDES.
433 Removed redundant -I from INCLUDES.
435 Tue Oct 27 04:00:11 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
437 * testgmodule.c (main): changed the #ifdef WIN32 test to NATIVE_WIN32,
438 this needs to be more constistent throughout the code, do we go for
439 NATIVE_WIN32 or WIN32?
441 * gmodule.c (LibMain): special cased the #ifdef __LCC__ case for
442 NATIVE_WIN32, since lcc maybe used on other platforms as well.
443 * libgplugin_a.c (LibMain):
444 * libgplugin_b.c (LibMain):
445 likewise. not sure i like this special requirement for lcc in here.
447 * gmodule-dl.c (_g_module_build_path):
448 feature empty "" directories and prepend the module name with "lib".
450 * gmodule-dld.c (_g_module_build_path):
451 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path):
452 feature empty "" directories.
454 * we need some more magic in the _g_module_build_path variants
455 so we don't append/prepend lib and .so, .sl or .dll for those names
456 that already contain it.
458 * applied patch from Tor Lillqvist for g_module_build_path() and
461 1998-10-20: Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
463 * gmodule/gmodule-win32.c:
466 * gmodule/gmodule.c gmodule/gmodule.h:
467 Added the funcion g_module_build_path that builds the path to
468 a module file, decorating the name according to the system's
469 conventions. Added the Windows implementation.
471 * gmodule/libgplugin_a.c gmodule/libgplugin_b.c:
472 Added LibMain for LCC-Win32.
474 * gmodule/testgmodule.c:
475 Handle Windows dll names.
477 1998-10-25 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
479 * gmodule.h: Remove `#pragma }'.
480 * gmoduleconf.h.in: Likewise.
482 Wed Oct 21 19:58:27 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
484 * gmodule.c (g_module_symbol): fixed a string pointer bug that could
485 cause garbage error messages from g_module_symbol() for systems that
488 Mon Sep 21 01:54:48 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
491 * gmodule.c: renamed old _de_init functionality to _unload.
492 modules are now expected to export:
493 G_MODULE_EXPORT const gchar* g_module_check_init (GModule *module);
495 G_MODULE_EXPORT void g_module_unload (GModule *module);
496 returning a string other than NULL from g_module_check_init() will
497 prevent the module from being loaded. a call to g_module_make_resident()
498 from g_module_unload() will prevent the module from being unloaded and
499 still make it resident.
501 Thu Sep 17 06:34:22 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
504 * gmodule.c: implemented g_module_make_resident() which can be
505 used to make modules resident.
506 fixed a buglet about the optional "g_module_de_init" function in
507 modules, which could get invoked twice on very obscure occasions.
509 Tue Sep 15 14:57:30 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
511 * Makefile.am: Update to libtool-1.2b,
512 change library versioning scheme to drop LT_RELEASE
513 from the -l line, while keeping it in the soname.
515 Thu Aug 20 07:08:16 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
517 * gmodule.c: provide no operation implementation for the underlying
518 _g_module_* functions, so we at least compile on systems that have
519 neither of G_MODULE_IMPL_DL or G_MODULE_IMPL_DLD.
521 Mon Aug 17 03:41:52 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
524 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): changed the return type for the
525 GModuleCheckInit function to be a string, describing the error
527 (g_module_symbol): show the failing symbol on error messages.
529 Fri Aug 14 02:24:39 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
531 * Makefile.am: feature the G_LOG_DOMAIN macro to set the log domain
532 to "GModule" upon compilation. we currently have to add this definition
533 to the DEFS variable.
534 * testgmodule.c: we need an ugly #undef G_LOG_DOMAIN at the start
535 of this file currently, since automake doesn't support per target
538 Mon Aug 10 03:35:57 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
540 * gmodule.c: minor changes to internal interface.
542 * gmodule-dld.c: put some comments into the files, and provided
543 better error checking for shl_findsym(). whish i had a system to
546 Mon Aug 10 02:18:31 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
548 * Makefile.am (lib_LTLIBRARIES): for now, skip the dependency on
549 -lglib for libgmodule-1.1.la, libgplugin_a.la and libgplugin_b.la
550 since this clashes with inter-library-dependencies for not installed
551 libraries. glib-config takes care of this for the usuall case, but
552 there needs to be a better way...
554 Sun Aug 9 15:57:38 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
556 * testgmodule.c: test program for GModule.
558 * libgplugin_b.c: test plugins for testgmodule.c.
561 * gmodule.c: GModule library implementation, which is basically
562 a wrapper about system specifc dynamic loading facilities.
564 Sun Aug 9 10:31:05 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
566 * ChangeLog start for gmodule.
