1 2005-06-24 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
3 * Makefile.am (install-libtool-import-lib): Current GNU tools do
4 understand the PRIVATE keyword.
6 2005-06-10 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
8 * === Released 2.7.0 ===
10 2005-01-07 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
12 * === Released 2.6.1 ===
14 2004-12-31 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
16 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): It's wrong to call g_file_test() with
17 more than one test (both G_FILE_TEST_EXISTS and _IS_REGULAR). (It
18 would succeed even if the pathname existed as a nonregular file.)
19 Just G_FILE_TEST_IS_REGULAR works fine. (#162594)
21 2004-12-16 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
23 * === Released 2.6.0 ===
25 2004-12-06 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>

33 * === Released 2.5.7 ===
35 2004-11-12 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
37 * === Released 2.5.6 ===
39 2004-11-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
41 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_open): Argument is in UTF-8. Use wide
42 character Win32 API if present.
44 * gmodule.c (parse_libtool_archive, g_module_open): Convert file
45 name to UTF-8 before storing in the error message string.
47 * gmodule.c (parse_libtool_archive): Use g_open().

71 * === Released 2.5.0 ===
73 Mon May 31 00:09:10 2004 Matthias Clasen <maclas@gmx.de>
75 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add gmodule-ar.c. (#85930, Tomas Ă–gren)
77 Tue May 11 23:23:21 2004 Matthias Clasen <maclas@gmx.de>
79 * gmodule-ar.c (_g_module_open): Make it compile on AIX.
80 (#141159, Michael Wilson)
82 2004-03-31 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
84 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path): On Cygwin, use the "cyg"
85 prefix, and accept also the normal "lib". (#138403, Roger Leigh)
87 Tue Feb 24 14:09:21 2004 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
89 * === Released 2.3.3 ===
91 Sun Feb 22 02:28:43 2004 Matthias Clasen <maclas@gmx.de>
93 Bug #85930, Laurent Vivier:
95 * gmodule-ar.c: Implementation of native module management for AIX.
97 * gmodule.c: Support gmodule-ar.c
99 2003-01-01 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
101 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path): Use g_ascii_strcasecmp().
103 Tue Dec 3 20:56:19 2002 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
105 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): Properly refcount the
106 main module if it is already open. (#98648)
108 Sat Mar 2 14:46:17 2002 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
110 * gmodule-beos.c (_g_module_build_path) * gmodule-dyld.c (_g_module_build_path)
111 gmodule-dl.c (_g_module_build_path): Use G_MODULE_SUFFIX rather than
112 a hardcoded ".so". (#72803)
114 Sun Feb 17 18:15:22 2002 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
116 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): Fix typo when checking
117 if file + module_suffix exists. (Miroslaw Dobrzanski-Neumann,
120 2001-11-24 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
122 * Makefile.am: Remove rule for testgmodule.exp, too.
124 2001-11-22 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
126 * gmodule-win32.c: Current w32api headers do include tlhelp32.h,
127 so no need to have an extract from it here.
129 Mon Nov 19 16:12:12 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
131 * Makefile.am makefile.msc.in makefile.mingw.in: Remove
132 testgmodule and associated plugin files; we don't need _both_ this
133 and ../tests/module-test.c
135 2001-11-16 Michael Meeks <michael@ximian.com>
137 * gmodule.c (parse_libtool_archive): fix leak.
139 2001-10-30 Dan Winship <danw@ximian.com>
141 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add gmodule-dyld.c
143 2001-10-23 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
145 * Makefile.am: (Win32): If we have built the MSVC import library,
146 install it. Install the gcc import library. Also support
149 2001-10-09 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
151 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path): More Unix compatibility:
152 Add "lib" prefix in case the module name doesn't already have it,
153 except if it ends with ".dll" (in which case it probably already
154 is the name of an existing DLL). This is needed for instance for
155 the gdk-pixbuf loaders, which are called "lib*.dll", but
156 gdk-pixbuf-io calls g_module_build_path without the "lib" prefix.
158 2001-10-03 jacob berkman <jacob@ximian.com>
160 * libgplugin_a.c: (gplugin_a_module_func):
161 * gmodule.h: s/retrive/retrieve/
163 2001-09-25 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
165 * makefile.mingw.in: Fix missing end @ in @LT_CURRENT@.
167 * makefile.msc.in: Use same DLL and import library names as
170 2001-09-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
172 * gmodule.rc.in: Correct InternalName and OriginalFilename to
173 match what we actually produce.
175 2001-09-18 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
177 * Makefile.am: On Win32, pass a dummy -rpath flag to libtool when
178 building libgplugin_[ab].la, otherwise libtool doesn't create a
179 DLL, but a static archive.
181 2001-07-20 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>
183 * makefile.msc.in : reflect glib move
185 2001-05-21 Mark Murnane <Mark.Murnane@ireland.sun.com>
187 * gmodule.c (g_str_check_suffix): Modified type of string_len
188 and suffix_len to be gsize. Properly accommodates return from
191 2001-05-29 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
193 * gmodule.c (g_module_set_error_unduped): Do not g_strdup, as
194 promised in the function name.
196 Tue May 29 12:57:51 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
198 * gmodule.c (g_module_symbol): erk, strconcat needs NULL as last arg.
199 make sure we pass module name with suffix into backend open.
201 Mon May 28 20:19:25 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
203 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): as a last resort, if we can't access()
204 the module, leave it up to the platform backends to find it.
205 (fixes implicit search patch loading i broke with my last
206 commit, spotted by Padraig O'Briain).
208 Thu May 24 03:43:12 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
210 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): reordered code so we have a single
211 module loading point (for reliable error messages). do access()
212 tests to figure plausible file names.
213 make error messages more verbose so users canfigure what's going on.
215 2001-04-20 Dan Winship <danw@ximian.com>
217 * gmodule-dyld.c: gmodule implementation for Darwin/Mac OS X
220 * gmoduleconf.h.in: Add gmodule-dyld support
222 * testgmodule.c (main): Fix spelling
224 2001-03-13 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
226 From Edward M. Lee <tailbert@yahoo.com>:
228 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path): use (cygwin friendly) dir
231 2001-03-12 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
233 * Makefile.am (libgplugin_a_la_LIBADD, libgplugin_b_la_LIBADD):
234 Link with the libgmodule la only on Win32.
236 2001-03-10 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
238 * Makefile.am: Use the _LIBADD dependency on libglib only on the
239 Win32 platform (including Cygwin).
241 2001-03-07 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
243 * Makefile.am, makefile.mingw.in, makefile.msc.in: Set
244 G_LOG_DOMAIN to \"GModule\" instead of g_log_domain_gmodule.
246 * gmodule.def, gmodule.h, gmodule.c: Removed g_log_domain_gmodule.
248 2001-02-21 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
250 * gmodule.h: Use G_BEGIN_DECLS and G_END_DECLS. Define
251 G_MODULE_EXPORT correctly on Cygwin, too.
253 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_open): Convert path to Windows format
256 * Makefile.am (libglib): Use libglib-1.3.la from
257 top_builddir. Invoke libtool with -no-undefined for Win32 and
260 2001-02-17 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>
262 Applied patch from Soeren Sandmann:
264 * gmodule.c (g_module_error): G_CONST_RETURN
265 (g_module_name): G_CONST_RETURN
267 Sat Feb 17 07:27:15 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
269 * gmodule.c: work around platforms that have broken RTLD_GLOBAL.
271 2001-01-27 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
273 * gmodule.c: (Win32) Need <io.h> for open() and close().
275 2000-12-22 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
277 * gmodule.c: Make g_module_open more tolerant wrt to the module
278 name. First it tries to open the module as named, if that fails,
279 it checks, whether it is a libtool archive and parses it, if that
280 fails it appends the systems shared library suffix
281 (i.e. ".so") (if not already found) and tries again and if that
282 fails it tries to append the ".la" libtool suffix (if not already
283 found) and parses it.
285 * gmodule.c: Lock recursive mutex during most module functions for
288 * gmodule-dl.c: Return an error from _g_module_symbol only, if
289 dlerror says so. All other functions return an error as well, if
290 dlerror returns NULL.
292 * testgmodule.c: Thanks to the above change the #ifdefs have
295 2000-10-15 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
297 * Makefile.am (BUILT_EXTRA_DIST): New variable.
298 (dist-hook): Handle $(BUILT_EXTRA_DIST).
300 2000-09-28 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
302 * gmodule.h: Moved declaration of g_log_domain_gmodule up before
303 the inclusion of glib.h to make it compile on non-gcc compilers.
305 2000-07-22 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
307 * makefile.mingw.in: Remove leftover gmodule-win32res.o stuff. The
308 build-dll script automagically handles resources.
310 2000-07-20 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
312 * libgplugin_a.c, testgmodule.c: Use g_path_get_basename instead
313 of the deprecated g_basename.
315 2000-07-19 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
317 * gmodule.h: include glib.h before doing extern "C". Makes some C++
318 compiler happy. Reported by Denis Vakatov
319 <vakatov@peony.nlm.nih.gov>.
321 2000-07-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
323 * gmodule-win32.c: Don't #include <tlhelp32.h> when compiling with
324 gcc, as it isn't provided. Declaration of a needed struct (from
325 www.microsoft.com) inserted instead.
327 2000-05-13 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
329 * makefile.mingw.in: New file, with gmodule stuff
330 moved from ../makefile.mingw.in.
332 * Makefile.am: Add to EXTRA_DIST, and add rule to make makefile.mingw.
334 2000-05-02 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
336 * gmodule-win32.c: No need to include <psapi.h>
338 2000-03-23 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
340 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_symbol): When looking for symbols in
341 the "main" module we must search both the main program and all
342 currently loaded DLLs. Not only the main program, or even just the
343 DLLs loaded as gmodules. Libglade requires this.
345 Thus we need to get a list of all modules in the current
346 process. There are two alternative APIs to do this: PSAPI and
347 Toolhelp. The former is only available on NT (including Win2k),
348 the latter on Win9x and Win2k. Check which one works, and use
351 First check for the symbol in the main program, and if not found
352 there, in all the modules.
354 Code for using PSAPI and Toolhelp was borrowed from the Dr. Mingw
355 tool written by José Fonseca <em96115@fe.up.pt>. Thanks.
357 2000-03-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
359 * gmodule-win32.c: Call g_win32_error_message() to get the error
364 * gmodule.c: Remove LibMain functions that were needed by LCC,
365 which is not a supported compiler.
367 * testgmodule.c (main): Test for G_MODULE_IMPL ==
368 G_MODULE_IMPL_WIN32, not G_OS_WIN32.
370 * gmoduleconf.h.win32: Remove LCC stuff from here, too.
372 Wed Mar 1 05:34:47 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
374 * gmodule-beos.c (_g_module_symbol): do not return NULL symbols.
376 * gmodule-os2.c: removed NetBSD specific defines.
377 (_g_module_self): set an error message for unsupported behaviour.
379 * gmodule-beos.c: many coding style fixups.
383 (_g_module_symbol): bunch of memory leaks plugged.
385 * gmodule-dl.c: make sure the error message returned from dlerror()
386 is always != NULL, by using a wrapper function fetch_dlerror(). based
387 on a patch to fix _g_module_symbol() for NetBSD from Scott Presnell
390 * gmodule-dld.c: minor indentation.
392 * gmodule-win32.c: minor cleanups.
394 * merges from glib-1-2.
396 Sat Feb 19 19:43:29 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
398 * testgmodule.c (main): added test to check that not yet bound symbols
399 in shared libraries of the main module are retrievable, from David Gero.
401 2000-01-13 Martin Baulig <martin@home-of-linux.org>
403 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): Check whether `check_init' is not NULL
404 before we attempt to call it.
406 Sun Oct 3 19:30:52 PDT 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
409 * testgmodule.c: use G_OS stuff
411 Sat Jul 24 20:47:18 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
413 * merged changes from GLib-1-2 branch.
415 1999-05-06 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
417 * gmodule.c: Remove LibMain.
419 Sat May 1 10:58:57 PDT 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
421 * Makefile.am: use -avoid-version and -module for test plugins
423 Mon Apr 19 08:43:59 1999 ape@lrdpf.spacetec.no (Asbjorn Pettersen)
425 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add gmodule-os2.c
427 Wed Apr 7 20:12:58 1999 ape@lrdpf.spacetec.no (Asbjorn Pettersen)
429 * gmodule-os2.c: OS/2 specific file for gmodule.
430 * gmodule.c (_g_module_open): Add gmodule-os2.c if G_MODULE_IMPL_OS2.
431 * gmoduleconf.h.in: Add G_MODULE_IMPL_OS2.
433 Fri Apr 23 09:03:48 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
435 * gmodule.c (g_module_symbol): removed inline variable assignment.
436 s/CHECK_ERROR/SUPPORT_OR_RETURN/ to make the code more self descriptive.
438 Wed Feb 10 12:06:30 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
440 * gmodule.c (CHECK_ERROR): be more descriptive on unsupported systems.
442 Wed Feb 10 07:56:33 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
444 * gmodule.c (g_module_error): fixed errernerous code wrt to thread
445 specific error string allocation handling.
447 Thu Jan 21 12:40:11 EST 1999 Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
449 * gmodule-dl.c (_g_module_build_path):
450 Add braces to eliminate an ambiguous else warning.
452 1999-01-16 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
454 * gmodule-dl.c gmodule-dld.c: In
455 _g_module_build_path, don't add the "lib" prefix and
456 ".so" or ".sl" suffix if already there.
458 * gmodule-win32.c: Likewise for the ".dll" suffix.
460 1998-12-10 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
462 * gmodule.c: Made it MT safe, the g_module_error() is now thread
465 Fri Nov 20 14:43:44 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
467 * gmodule.c (_g_module_build_path): added empty default imlementation
468 so gmodule.so compiles on systems that are not yet supported, fix from
469 Erik Bagfors <bagfors@hpc2n.umu.se>.
471 1998-11-13 Nuno Ferreira <nmrf@rnl.ist.utl.pt>
473 * Makefile.am (INCLUDES): The previous commit message is wrong
474 about the -I$(top_srcdir) being redundant. I put it back.
476 Wed Nov 11 23:23:22 EST 1998 Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
478 * Makefile.am : INCLUDES is the right way to add to CFLAGS, not
479 DEFS. Also there are bugs with '+=' in makefiles.
480 Got rid of DEFS line by moving G_LOG_DOMAIN setting into INCLUDES.
481 Removed redundant -I from INCLUDES.
483 Tue Oct 27 04:00:11 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
485 * testgmodule.c (main): changed the #ifdef WIN32 test to NATIVE_WIN32,
486 this needs to be more constistent throughout the code, do we go for
487 NATIVE_WIN32 or WIN32?
489 * gmodule.c (LibMain): special cased the #ifdef __LCC__ case for
490 NATIVE_WIN32, since lcc maybe used on other platforms as well.
491 * libgplugin_a.c (LibMain):
492 * libgplugin_b.c (LibMain):
493 likewise. not sure i like this special requirement for lcc in here.
495 * gmodule-dl.c (_g_module_build_path):
496 feature empty "" directories and prepend the module name with "lib".
498 * gmodule-dld.c (_g_module_build_path):
499 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path):
500 feature empty "" directories.
502 * we need some more magic in the _g_module_build_path variants
503 so we don't append/prepend lib and .so, .sl or .dll for those names
504 that already contain it.
506 * applied patch from Tor Lillqvist for g_module_build_path() and
509 1998-10-20: Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
511 * gmodule/gmodule-win32.c:
514 * gmodule/gmodule.c gmodule/gmodule.h:
515 Added the funcion g_module_build_path that builds the path to
516 a module file, decorating the name according to the system's
517 conventions. Added the Windows implementation.
519 * gmodule/libgplugin_a.c gmodule/libgplugin_b.c:
520 Added LibMain for LCC-Win32.
522 * gmodule/testgmodule.c:
523 Handle Windows dll names.
525 1998-10-25 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
527 * gmodule.h: Remove `#pragma }'.
528 * gmoduleconf.h.in: Likewise.
530 Wed Oct 21 19:58:27 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
532 * gmodule.c (g_module_symbol): fixed a string pointer bug that could
533 cause garbage error messages from g_module_symbol() for systems that
536 Mon Sep 21 01:54:48 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
539 * gmodule.c: renamed old _de_init functionality to _unload.
540 modules are now expected to export:
541 G_MODULE_EXPORT const gchar* g_module_check_init (GModule *module);
543 G_MODULE_EXPORT void g_module_unload (GModule *module);
544 returning a string other than NULL from g_module_check_init() will
545 prevent the module from being loaded. a call to g_module_make_resident()
546 from g_module_unload() will prevent the module from being unloaded and
547 still make it resident.
549 Thu Sep 17 06:34:22 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
552 * gmodule.c: implemented g_module_make_resident() which can be
553 used to make modules resident.
554 fixed a buglet about the optional "g_module_de_init" function in
555 modules, which could get invoked twice on very obscure occasions.
557 Tue Sep 15 14:57:30 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
559 * Makefile.am: Update to libtool-1.2b,
560 change library versioning scheme to drop LT_RELEASE
561 from the -l line, while keeping it in the soname.
563 Thu Aug 20 07:08:16 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
565 * gmodule.c: provide no operation implementation for the underlying
566 _g_module_* functions, so we at least compile on systems that have
567 neither of G_MODULE_IMPL_DL or G_MODULE_IMPL_DLD.
569 Mon Aug 17 03:41:52 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
572 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): changed the return type for the
573 GModuleCheckInit function to be a string, describing the error
575 (g_module_symbol): show the failing symbol on error messages.
577 Fri Aug 14 02:24:39 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
579 * Makefile.am: feature the G_LOG_DOMAIN macro to set the log domain
580 to "GModule" upon compilation. we currently have to add this definition
