3 * gmodule.c: work around platforms that have broken RTLD_GLOBAL.
5 2001-01-27 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
7 * gmodule.c: (Win32) Need <io.h> for open() and close().
9 2000-12-22 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
11 * gmodule.c: Make g_module_open more tolerant wrt to the module
12 name. First it tries to open the module as named, if that fails,
13 it checks, whether it is a libtool archive and parses it, if that
14 fails it appends the systems shared library suffix
15 (i.e. ".so") (if not already found) and tries again and if that
16 fails it tries to append the ".la" libtool suffix (if not already
19 * gmodule.c: Lock recursive mutex during most module functions for
22 * gmodule-dl.c: Return an error from _g_module_symbol only, if
23 dlerror says so. All other functions return an error as well, if
26 * testgmodule.c: Thanks to the above change the #ifdefs have
29 2000-10-15 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
31 * Makefile.am (BUILT_EXTRA_DIST): New variable.
32 (dist-hook): Handle $(BUILT_EXTRA_DIST).
34 2000-09-28 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
36 * gmodule.h: Moved declaration of g_log_domain_gmodule up before
37 the inclusion of glib.h to make it compile on non-gcc compilers.
39 2000-07-22 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
41 * makefile.mingw.in: Remove leftover gmodule-win32res.o stuff. The
42 build-dll script automagically handles resources.
44 2000-07-20 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
46 * libgplugin_a.c, testgmodule.c: Use g_path_get_basename instead
47 of the deprecated g_basename.
49 2000-07-19 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
51 * gmodule.h: include glib.h before doing extern "C". Makes some C++
52 compiler happy. Reported by Denis Vakatov
53 <vakatov@peony.nlm.nih.gov>.
55 2000-07-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
57 * gmodule-win32.c: Don't #include <tlhelp32.h> when compiling with
58 gcc, as it isn't provided. Declaration of a needed struct (from
59 www.microsoft.com) inserted instead.
61 2000-05-13 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
63 * makefile.mingw.in: New file, with gmodule stuff
64 moved from ../makefile.mingw.in.
66 * Makefile.am: Add to EXTRA_DIST, and add rule to make makefile.mingw.
68 2000-05-02 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
70 * gmodule-win32.c: No need to include <psapi.h>
72 2000-03-23 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
74 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_symbol): When looking for symbols in
75 the "main" module we must search both the main program and all
76 currently loaded DLLs. Not only the main program, or even just the
77 DLLs loaded as gmodules. Libglade requires this.
79 Thus we need to get a list of all modules in the current
80 process. There are two alternative APIs to do this: PSAPI and
81 Toolhelp. The former is only available on NT (including Win2k),
82 the latter on Win9x and Win2k. Check which one works, and use
85 First check for the symbol in the main program, and if not found
86 there, in all the modules.
88 Code for using PSAPI and Toolhelp was borrowed from the Dr. Mingw
89 tool written by José Fonseca <em96115@fe.up.pt>. Thanks.
91 2000-03-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
93 * gmodule-win32.c: Call g_win32_error_message() to get the error
98 * gmodule.c: Remove LibMain functions that were needed by LCC,
99 which is not a supported compiler.
101 * testgmodule.c (main): Test for G_MODULE_IMPL ==
102 G_MODULE_IMPL_WIN32, not G_OS_WIN32.
104 * gmoduleconf.h.win32: Remove LCC stuff from here, too.
106 Wed Mar 1 05:34:47 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
108 * gmodule-beos.c (_g_module_symbol): do not return NULL symbols.
110 * gmodule-os2.c: removed NetBSD specific defines.
111 (_g_module_self): set an error message for unsupported behaviour.
113 * gmodule-beos.c: many coding style fixups.
117 (_g_module_symbol): bunch of memory leaks plugged.
119 * gmodule-dl.c: make sure the error message returned from dlerror()
120 is always != NULL, by using a wrapper function fetch_dlerror(). based
121 on a patch to fix _g_module_symbol() for NetBSD from Scott Presnell
124 * gmodule-dld.c: minor indentation.
126 * gmodule-win32.c: minor cleanups.
128 * merges from glib-1-2.
130 Sat Feb 19 19:43:29 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
132 * testgmodule.c (main): added test to check that not yet bound symbols
133 in shared libraries of the main module are retrievable, from David Gero.
135 2000-01-13 Martin Baulig <martin@home-of-linux.org>
137 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): Check whether `check_init' is not NULL
138 before we attempt to call it.
140 Sun Oct 3 19:30:52 PDT 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
143 * testgmodule.c: use G_OS stuff
145 Sat Jul 24 20:47:18 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
147 * merged changes from GLib-1-2 branch.
149 1999-05-06 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
151 * gmodule.c: Remove LibMain.
153 Sat May 1 10:58:57 PDT 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
155 * Makefile.am: use -avoid-version and -module for test plugins
157 Mon Apr 19 08:43:59 1999 ape@lrdpf.spacetec.no (Asbjorn Pettersen)
159 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add gmodule-os2.c
161 Wed Apr 7 20:12:58 1999 ape@lrdpf.spacetec.no (Asbjorn Pettersen)
163 * gmodule-os2.c: OS/2 specific file for gmodule.
164 * gmodule.c (_g_module_open): Add gmodule-os2.c if G_MODULE_IMPL_OS2.
165 * gmoduleconf.h.in: Add G_MODULE_IMPL_OS2.
167 Fri Apr 23 09:03:48 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
169 * gmodule.c (g_module_symbol): removed inline variable assignment.
170 s/CHECK_ERROR/SUPPORT_OR_RETURN/ to make the code more self descriptive.
172 Wed Feb 10 12:06:30 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
174 * gmodule.c (CHECK_ERROR): be more descriptive on unsupported systems.
176 Wed Feb 10 07:56:33 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
178 * gmodule.c (g_module_error): fixed errernerous code wrt to thread
179 specific error string allocation handling.
181 Thu Jan 21 12:40:11 EST 1999 Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
183 * gmodule-dl.c (_g_module_build_path):
184 Add braces to eliminate an ambiguous else warning.
186 1999-01-16 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
188 * gmodule-dl.c gmodule-dld.c: In
189 _g_module_build_path, don't add the "lib" prefix and
190 ".so" or ".sl" suffix if already there.
192 * gmodule-win32.c: Likewise for the ".dll" suffix.
194 1998-12-10 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
196 * gmodule.c: Made it MT safe, the g_module_error() is now thread
199 Fri Nov 20 14:43:44 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
201 * gmodule.c (_g_module_build_path): added empty default imlementation
202 so gmodule.so compiles on systems that are not yet supported, fix from
203 Erik Bagfors <bagfors@hpc2n.umu.se>.
205 1998-11-13 Nuno Ferreira <nmrf@rnl.ist.utl.pt>
207 * Makefile.am (INCLUDES): The previous commit message is wrong
208 about the -I$(top_srcdir) being redundant. I put it back.
210 Wed Nov 11 23:23:22 EST 1998 Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
212 * Makefile.am : INCLUDES is the right way to add to CFLAGS, not
213 DEFS. Also there are bugs with '+=' in makefiles.
214 Got rid of DEFS line by moving G_LOG_DOMAIN setting into INCLUDES.
215 Removed redundant -I from INCLUDES.
217 Tue Oct 27 04:00:11 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
219 * testgmodule.c (main): changed the #ifdef WIN32 test to NATIVE_WIN32,
220 this needs to be more constistent throughout the code, do we go for
221 NATIVE_WIN32 or WIN32?
223 * gmodule.c (LibMain): special cased the #ifdef __LCC__ case for
224 NATIVE_WIN32, since lcc maybe used on other platforms as well.
225 * libgplugin_a.c (LibMain):
226 * libgplugin_b.c (LibMain):
227 likewise. not sure i like this special requirement for lcc in here.
229 * gmodule-dl.c (_g_module_build_path):
230 feature empty "" directories and prepend the module name with "lib".
232 * gmodule-dld.c (_g_module_build_path):
233 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path):
234 feature empty "" directories.
236 * we need some more magic in the _g_module_build_path variants
237 so we don't append/prepend lib and .so, .sl or .dll for those names
238 that already contain it.
240 * applied patch from Tor Lillqvist for g_module_build_path() and
243 1998-10-20: Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
245 * gmodule/gmodule-win32.c:
248 * gmodule/gmodule.c gmodule/gmodule.h:
249 Added the funcion g_module_build_path that builds the path to
250 a module file, decorating the name according to the system's
251 conventions. Added the Windows implementation.
253 * gmodule/libgplugin_a.c gmodule/libgplugin_b.c:
254 Added LibMain for LCC-Win32.
256 * gmodule/testgmodule.c:
257 Handle Windows dll names.
259 1998-10-25 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
261 * gmodule.h: Remove `#pragma }'.
262 * gmoduleconf.h.in: Likewise.
264 Wed Oct 21 19:58:27 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
266 * gmodule.c (g_module_symbol): fixed a string pointer bug that could
267 cause garbage error messages from g_module_symbol() for systems that
270 Mon Sep 21 01:54:48 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
273 * gmodule.c: renamed old _de_init functionality to _unload.
274 modules are now expected to export:
275 G_MODULE_EXPORT const gchar* g_module_check_init (GModule *module);
277 G_MODULE_EXPORT void g_module_unload (GModule *module);
278 returning a string other than NULL from g_module_check_init() will
279 prevent the module from being loaded. a call to g_module_make_resident()
280 from g_module_unload() will prevent the module from being unloaded and
281 still make it resident.
283 Thu Sep 17 06:34:22 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
286 * gmodule.c: implemented g_module_make_resident() which can be
287 used to make modules resident.
288 fixed a buglet about the optional "g_module_de_init" function in
289 modules, which could get invoked twice on very obscure occasions.
291 Tue Sep 15 14:57:30 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
293 * Makefile.am: Update to libtool-1.2b,
294 change library versioning scheme to drop LT_RELEASE
295 from the -l line, while keeping it in the soname.
297 Thu Aug 20 07:08:16 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
299 * gmodule.c: provide no operation implementation for the underlying
300 _g_module_* functions, so we at least compile on systems that have
301 neither of G_MODULE_IMPL_DL or G_MODULE_IMPL_DLD.
303 Mon Aug 17 03:41:52 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
306 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): changed the return type for the
307 GModuleCheckInit function to be a string, describing the error
309 (g_module_symbol): show the failing symbol on error messages.
311 Fri Aug 14 02:24:39 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
313 * Makefile.am: feature the G_LOG_DOMAIN macro to set the log domain
314 to "GModule" upon compilation. we currently have to add this definition
315 to the DEFS variable.
316 * testgmodule.c: we need an ugly #undef G_LOG_DOMAIN at the start
317 of this file currently, since automake doesn't support per target
320 Mon Aug 10 03:35:57 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
322 * gmodule.c: minor changes to internal interface.
324 * gmodule-dld.c: put some comments into the files, and provided
325 better error checking for shl_findsym(). whish i had a system to
328 Mon Aug 10 02:18:31 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
330 * Makefile.am (lib_LTLIBRARIES): for now, skip the dependency on
331 -lglib for libgmodule-1.1.la, libgplugin_a.la and libgplugin_b.la
332 since this clashes with inter-library-dependencies for not installed
333 libraries. glib-config takes care of this for the usuall case, but
334 there needs to be a better way...
336 Sun Aug 9 15:57:38 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
338 * testgmodule.c: test program for GModule.
340 * libgplugin_b.c: test plugins for testgmodule.c.
343 * gmodule.c: GModule library implementation, which is basically
344 a wrapper about system specifc dynamic loading facilities.
346 Sun Aug 9 10:31:05 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
348 * ChangeLog start for gmodule.
