63 Tue Feb 24 14:09:21 2004 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
65 * === Released 2.3.3 ===
67 Sun Feb 22 02:28:43 2004 Matthias Clasen <maclas@gmx.de>
69 Bug #85930, Laurent Vivier:
71 * gmodule-ar.c: Implementation of native module management for AIX.
73 * gmodule.c: Support gmodule-ar.c
75 2003-01-01 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
77 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path): Use g_ascii_strcasecmp().
79 Tue Dec 3 20:56:19 2002 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
81 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): Properly refcount the
82 main module if it is already open. (#98648)
84 Sat Mar 2 14:46:17 2002 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
86 * gmodule-beos.c (_g_module_build_path) * gmodule-dyld.c (_g_module_build_path)
87 gmodule-dl.c (_g_module_build_path): Use G_MODULE_SUFFIX rather than

90 Sun Feb 17 18:15:22 2002 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
92 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): Fix typo when checking
93 if file + module_suffix exists. (Miroslaw Dobrzanski-Neumann,
96 2001-11-24 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
98 * Makefile.am: Remove rule for testgmodule.exp, too.
100 2001-11-22 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
102 * gmodule-win32.c: Current w32api headers do include tlhelp32.h,
103 so no need to have an extract from it here.
105 Mon Nov 19 16:12:12 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
107 * Makefile.am makefile.msc.in makefile.mingw.in: Remove
108 testgmodule and associated plugin files; we don't need _both_ this
109 and ../tests/module-test.c
111 2001-11-16 Michael Meeks <michael@ximian.com>
113 * gmodule.c (parse_libtool_archive): fix leak.
115 2001-10-30 Dan Winship <danw@ximian.com>
117 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add gmodule-dyld.c
119 2001-10-23 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
121 * Makefile.am: (Win32): If we have built the MSVC import library,
122 install it. Install the gcc import library. Also support
125 2001-10-09 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
127 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path): More Unix compatibility:
128 Add "lib" prefix in case the module name doesn't already have it,
129 except if it ends with ".dll" (in which case it probably already
130 is the name of an existing DLL). This is needed for instance for
131 the gdk-pixbuf loaders, which are called "lib*.dll", but
132 gdk-pixbuf-io calls g_module_build_path without the "lib" prefix.
134 2001-10-03 jacob berkman <jacob@ximian.com>
136 * libgplugin_a.c: (gplugin_a_module_func):
137 * gmodule.h: s/retrive/retrieve/
139 2001-09-25 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
141 * makefile.mingw.in: Fix missing end @ in @LT_CURRENT@.
143 * makefile.msc.in: Use same DLL and import library names as
146 2001-09-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
148 * gmodule.rc.in: Correct InternalName and OriginalFilename to
149 match what we actually produce.
151 2001-09-18 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
153 * Makefile.am: On Win32, pass a dummy -rpath flag to libtool when
154 building libgplugin_[ab].la, otherwise libtool doesn't create a
155 DLL, but a static archive.
157 2001-07-20 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>
159 * makefile.msc.in : reflect glib move
161 2001-05-21 Mark Murnane <Mark.Murnane@ireland.sun.com>
163 * gmodule.c (g_str_check_suffix): Modified type of string_len
164 and suffix_len to be gsize. Properly accommodates return from
167 2001-05-29 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
169 * gmodule.c (g_module_set_error_unduped): Do not g_strdup, as
170 promised in the function name.
172 Tue May 29 12:57:51 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
174 * gmodule.c (g_module_symbol): erk, strconcat needs NULL as last arg.
175 make sure we pass module name with suffix into backend open.
177 Mon May 28 20:19:25 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
179 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): as a last resort, if we can't access()
180 the module, leave it up to the platform backends to find it.
181 (fixes implicit search patch loading i broke with my last
182 commit, spotted by Padraig O'Briain).
184 Thu May 24 03:43:12 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
186 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): reordered code so we have a single
187 module loading point (for reliable error messages). do access()
188 tests to figure plausible file names.
189 make error messages more verbose so users canfigure what's going on.
191 2001-04-20 Dan Winship <danw@ximian.com>
193 * gmodule-dyld.c: gmodule implementation for Darwin/Mac OS X
196 * gmoduleconf.h.in: Add gmodule-dyld support
198 * testgmodule.c (main): Fix spelling
200 2001-03-13 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
202 From Edward M. Lee <tailbert@yahoo.com>:
204 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path): use (cygwin friendly) dir
207 2001-03-12 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
209 * Makefile.am (libgplugin_a_la_LIBADD, libgplugin_b_la_LIBADD):
210 Link with the libgmodule la only on Win32.
212 2001-03-10 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
214 * Makefile.am: Use the _LIBADD dependency on libglib only on the
215 Win32 platform (including Cygwin).
217 2001-03-07 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
219 * Makefile.am, makefile.mingw.in, makefile.msc.in: Set
220 G_LOG_DOMAIN to \"GModule\" instead of g_log_domain_gmodule.
222 * gmodule.def, gmodule.h, gmodule.c: Removed g_log_domain_gmodule.
224 2001-02-21 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
226 * gmodule.h: Use G_BEGIN_DECLS and G_END_DECLS. Define
227 G_MODULE_EXPORT correctly on Cygwin, too.
229 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_open): Convert path to Windows format
232 * Makefile.am (libglib): Use libglib-1.3.la from
233 top_builddir. Invoke libtool with -no-undefined for Win32 and
236 2001-02-17 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>
238 Applied patch from Soeren Sandmann:
240 * gmodule.c (g_module_error): G_CONST_RETURN
241 (g_module_name): G_CONST_RETURN
243 Sat Feb 17 07:27:15 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
245 * gmodule.c: work around platforms that have broken RTLD_GLOBAL.
247 2001-01-27 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
249 * gmodule.c: (Win32) Need <io.h> for open() and close().
251 2000-12-22 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
253 * gmodule.c: Make g_module_open more tolerant wrt to the module
254 name. First it tries to open the module as named, if that fails,
255 it checks, whether it is a libtool archive and parses it, if that
256 fails it appends the systems shared library suffix
257 (i.e. ".so") (if not already found) and tries again and if that
258 fails it tries to append the ".la" libtool suffix (if not already
259 found) and parses it.
261 * gmodule.c: Lock recursive mutex during most module functions for
264 * gmodule-dl.c: Return an error from _g_module_symbol only, if
265 dlerror says so. All other functions return an error as well, if
266 dlerror returns NULL.
268 * testgmodule.c: Thanks to the above change the #ifdefs have
271 2000-10-15 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
273 * Makefile.am (BUILT_EXTRA_DIST): New variable.
274 (dist-hook): Handle $(BUILT_EXTRA_DIST).
276 2000-09-28 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
278 * gmodule.h: Moved declaration of g_log_domain_gmodule up before
279 the inclusion of glib.h to make it compile on non-gcc compilers.
281 2000-07-22 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
283 * makefile.mingw.in: Remove leftover gmodule-win32res.o stuff. The
284 build-dll script automagically handles resources.
286 2000-07-20 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
288 * libgplugin_a.c, testgmodule.c: Use g_path_get_basename instead
289 of the deprecated g_basename.
291 2000-07-19 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
293 * gmodule.h: include glib.h before doing extern "C". Makes some C++
294 compiler happy. Reported by Denis Vakatov
295 <vakatov@peony.nlm.nih.gov>.
297 2000-07-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
299 * gmodule-win32.c: Don't #include <tlhelp32.h> when compiling with
300 gcc, as it isn't provided. Declaration of a needed struct (from
301 www.microsoft.com) inserted instead.
303 2000-05-13 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
305 * makefile.mingw.in: New file, with gmodule stuff
306 moved from ../makefile.mingw.in.
308 * Makefile.am: Add to EXTRA_DIST, and add rule to make makefile.mingw.
310 2000-05-02 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
312 * gmodule-win32.c: No need to include <psapi.h>
314 2000-03-23 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
316 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_symbol): When looking for symbols in
317 the "main" module we must search both the main program and all
318 currently loaded DLLs. Not only the main program, or even just the
319 DLLs loaded as gmodules. Libglade requires this.
321 Thus we need to get a list of all modules in the current
322 process. There are two alternative APIs to do this: PSAPI and
323 Toolhelp. The former is only available on NT (including Win2k),
324 the latter on Win9x and Win2k. Check which one works, and use
327 First check for the symbol in the main program, and if not found
328 there, in all the modules.
330 Code for using PSAPI and Toolhelp was borrowed from the Dr. Mingw
331 tool written by José Fonseca <em96115@fe.up.pt>. Thanks.
333 2000-03-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
335 * gmodule-win32.c: Call g_win32_error_message() to get the error
340 * gmodule.c: Remove LibMain functions that were needed by LCC,
341 which is not a supported compiler.
343 * testgmodule.c (main): Test for G_MODULE_IMPL ==
344 G_MODULE_IMPL_WIN32, not G_OS_WIN32.
346 * gmoduleconf.h.win32: Remove LCC stuff from here, too.
348 Wed Mar 1 05:34:47 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
350 * gmodule-beos.c (_g_module_symbol): do not return NULL symbols.
352 * gmodule-os2.c: removed NetBSD specific defines.
353 (_g_module_self): set an error message for unsupported behaviour.
355 * gmodule-beos.c: many coding style fixups.
359 (_g_module_symbol): bunch of memory leaks plugged.
361 * gmodule-dl.c: make sure the error message returned from dlerror()
362 is always != NULL, by using a wrapper function fetch_dlerror(). based
363 on a patch to fix _g_module_symbol() for NetBSD from Scott Presnell
366 * gmodule-dld.c: minor indentation.
368 * gmodule-win32.c: minor cleanups.
370 * merges from glib-1-2.
372 Sat Feb 19 19:43:29 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
374 * testgmodule.c (main): added test to check that not yet bound symbols
375 in shared libraries of the main module are retrievable, from David Gero.
377 2000-01-13 Martin Baulig <martin@home-of-linux.org>
379 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): Check whether `check_init' is not NULL
380 before we attempt to call it.
382 Sun Oct 3 19:30:52 PDT 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
385 * testgmodule.c: use G_OS stuff
387 Sat Jul 24 20:47:18 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
389 * merged changes from GLib-1-2 branch.
391 1999-05-06 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
393 * gmodule.c: Remove LibMain.
395 Sat May 1 10:58:57 PDT 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
397 * Makefile.am: use -avoid-version and -module for test plugins
399 Mon Apr 19 08:43:59 1999 ape@lrdpf.spacetec.no (Asbjorn Pettersen)
401 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add gmodule-os2.c
403 Wed Apr 7 20:12:58 1999 ape@lrdpf.spacetec.no (Asbjorn Pettersen)
405 * gmodule-os2.c: OS/2 specific file for gmodule.
406 * gmodule.c (_g_module_open): Add gmodule-os2.c if G_MODULE_IMPL_OS2.
407 * gmoduleconf.h.in: Add G_MODULE_IMPL_OS2.
409 Fri Apr 23 09:03:48 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
411 * gmodule.c (g_module_symbol): removed inline variable assignment.
412 s/CHECK_ERROR/SUPPORT_OR_RETURN/ to make the code more self descriptive.
414 Wed Feb 10 12:06:30 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
416 * gmodule.c (CHECK_ERROR): be more descriptive on unsupported systems.
418 Wed Feb 10 07:56:33 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
420 * gmodule.c (g_module_error): fixed errernerous code wrt to thread
421 specific error string allocation handling.
423 Thu Jan 21 12:40:11 EST 1999 Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
425 * gmodule-dl.c (_g_module_build_path):
426 Add braces to eliminate an ambiguous else warning.
428 1999-01-16 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
430 * gmodule-dl.c gmodule-dld.c: In
431 _g_module_build_path, don't add the "lib" prefix and
432 ".so" or ".sl" suffix if already there.
434 * gmodule-win32.c: Likewise for the ".dll" suffix.
436 1998-12-10 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
438 * gmodule.c: Made it MT safe, the g_module_error() is now thread
441 Fri Nov 20 14:43:44 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
443 * gmodule.c (_g_module_build_path): added empty default imlementation
444 so gmodule.so compiles on systems that are not yet supported, fix from
445 Erik Bagfors <bagfors@hpc2n.umu.se>.
447 1998-11-13 Nuno Ferreira <nmrf@rnl.ist.utl.pt>
449 * Makefile.am (INCLUDES): The previous commit message is wrong
450 about the -I$(top_srcdir) being redundant. I put it back.
452 Wed Nov 11 23:23:22 EST 1998 Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
454 * Makefile.am : INCLUDES is the right way to add to CFLAGS, not
455 DEFS. Also there are bugs with '+=' in makefiles.
456 Got rid of DEFS line by moving G_LOG_DOMAIN setting into INCLUDES.
457 Removed redundant -I from INCLUDES.
459 Tue Oct 27 04:00:11 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
461 * testgmodule.c (main): changed the #ifdef WIN32 test to NATIVE_WIN32,
462 this needs to be more constistent throughout the code, do we go for
463 NATIVE_WIN32 or WIN32?
465 * gmodule.c (LibMain): special cased the #ifdef __LCC__ case for
466 NATIVE_WIN32, since lcc maybe used on other platforms as well.
467 * libgplugin_a.c (LibMain):
468 * libgplugin_b.c (LibMain):
469 likewise. not sure i like this special requirement for lcc in here.
471 * gmodule-dl.c (_g_module_build_path):
472 feature empty "" directories and prepend the module name with "lib".
474 * gmodule-dld.c (_g_module_build_path):
475 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path):
476 feature empty "" directories.
478 * we need some more magic in the _g_module_build_path variants
479 so we don't append/prepend lib and .so, .sl or .dll for those names
480 that already contain it.
482 * applied patch from Tor Lillqvist for g_module_build_path() and
485 1998-10-20: Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
487 * gmodule/gmodule-win32.c:
490 * gmodule/gmodule.c gmodule/gmodule.h:
491 Added the funcion g_module_build_path that builds the path to
492 a module file, decorating the name according to the system's
493 conventions. Added the Windows implementation.
495 * gmodule/libgplugin_a.c gmodule/libgplugin_b.c:
496 Added LibMain for LCC-Win32.
498 * gmodule/testgmodule.c:
499 Handle Windows dll names.
501 1998-10-25 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
503 * gmodule.h: Remove `#pragma }'.
504 * gmoduleconf.h.in: Likewise.
506 Wed Oct 21 19:58:27 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
508 * gmodule.c (g_module_symbol): fixed a string pointer bug that could
509 cause garbage error messages from g_module_symbol() for systems that
512 Mon Sep 21 01:54:48 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
515 * gmodule.c: renamed old _de_init functionality to _unload.
516 modules are now expected to export:
517 G_MODULE_EXPORT const gchar* g_module_check_init (GModule *module);
519 G_MODULE_EXPORT void g_module_unload (GModule *module);
520 returning a string other than NULL from g_module_check_init() will
521 prevent the module from being loaded. a call to g_module_make_resident()
522 from g_module_unload() will prevent the module from being unloaded and
523 still make it resident.
525 Thu Sep 17 06:34:22 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
528 * gmodule.c: implemented g_module_make_resident() which can be
529 used to make modules resident.
530 fixed a buglet about the optional "g_module_de_init" function in
531 modules, which could get invoked twice on very obscure occasions.
533 Tue Sep 15 14:57:30 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
535 * Makefile.am: Update to libtool-1.2b,
536 change library versioning scheme to drop LT_RELEASE
537 from the -l line, while keeping it in the soname.
539 Thu Aug 20 07:08:16 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
541 * gmodule.c: provide no operation implementation for the underlying
542 _g_module_* functions, so we at least compile on systems that have
543 neither of G_MODULE_IMPL_DL or G_MODULE_IMPL_DLD.
545 Mon Aug 17 03:41:52 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
548 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): changed the return type for the
549 GModuleCheckInit function to be a string, describing the error
551 (g_module_symbol): show the failing symbol on error messages.
553 Fri Aug 14 02:24:39 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
555 * Makefile.am: feature the G_LOG_DOMAIN macro to set the log domain
556 to "GModule" upon compilation. we currently have to add this definition
557 to the DEFS variable.
558 * testgmodule.c: we need an ugly #undef G_LOG_DOMAIN at the start
559 of this file currently, since automake doesn't support per target
562 Mon Aug 10 03:35:57 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
564 * gmodule.c: minor changes to internal interface.
566 * gmodule-dld.c: put some comments into the files, and provided
567 better error checking for shl_findsym(). whish i had a system to
570 Mon Aug 10 02:18:31 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
572 * Makefile.am (lib_LTLIBRARIES): for now, skip the dependency on
573 -lglib for libgmodule-1.1.la, libgplugin_a.la and libgplugin_b.la
574 since this clashes with inter-library-dependencies for not installed
575 libraries. glib-config takes care of this for the usuall case, but
576 there needs to be a better way...
