1 Fri Mar 9 16:42:08 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
3 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: moved g_strdup_value_contents() into this file as
4 a public function (was static in gobject.c before). it's a bit odd
5 to have that function here, especially since it requires extra includes,
6 but then it doesn't very well fit somewhere else either.
8 * gparamspecs.c: added default/max/min checks to param spec creation
11 2001-03-10 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
13 * gobject.def: Add a couple of missing entries.
15 * Makefile.am (libgobject_1_3_la_LIBADD): Use only on Win32.
17 Fri Mar 9 14:57:17 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
19 * testgruntime.c: test program. covers run first/last/cleanup signal
20 handlers, return value accumulator, signal string returns, and
21 interface types in signal arguments.
23 * gtype.c (g_type_value_table_peek): for interface types without
24 value table, try looking up a value table from an instantiatable
25 prerequisite type (this is safe as an interface may only have
26 one instantiatable prerequisiste).
27 (type_check_is_value_type_U): same here.
29 * gsignal.c (g_signal_newv): assert that return types never have
30 G_SIGNAL_TYPE_STATIC_SCOPE set.
31 (g_signal_newc): only create class closure if the class_offset is not
34 Fri Mar 9 10:14:00 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
36 * gparamspecs.c (g_param_spec_object): use g_type_is_a() to check
37 for object_type being a G_TYPE_OBJECT, not G_TYPE_IS_OBJECT(), since
38 that wouldn't allow interface types.
40 * gtype.c (g_type_interface_add_prerequisite): arg, fixed small cnp bug
41 with bad implications and an off-by-one error.
43 Thu Mar 8 16:34:22 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
45 * gvaluetransform.c: Include <string.h> for memcpy.
47 * gvaluetransform.c (DEFINE_SPRINTF): Remove unnecessary
48 and ANSI-illegal ## token pasting.
50 Thu Mar 8 18:11:52 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
52 * gsignal.c: eek, fixed old hook detail storage code.
54 Thu Mar 8 16:35:48 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
56 * gparamspecs.[hc]: s/g_param_spec_string_c/g_param_spec_stringc/.
58 * gsignal.[hc]: fixed accumulator invocation, implemented emission
59 hooks. and no, neither of these callbacks are called via a closure,
60 language bindings can wrap the accumulator and emission hook
61 interface, they already get parameters marshalled into a GValue array.
62 (g_signal_connect): removed this function as its C specific, doesn't
63 cover the swapped argument, is too close to its broken original
64 gtk_signal_connect() and creates demand for _swapped, _after and
65 _swapped_after variants <brrr>.
66 (g_signal_connectc): convenience macro to connect a C handler
67 func with data, like the old g_signal_connect() plus swapped
71 * gboxed.c: added G_TYPE_VALUE boxed type.
73 Wed Mar 7 19:02:51 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
75 * gtype.c (type_node_add_iface_entry_W): catch when adding an interface
76 to an ancestor of a child that already conforms to this interface.
77 currently we spew a warning here, should we be silent?
78 (g_type_interface_add_prerequisite): new function to add a prerequisite
79 type to an interface, that must succeed an instance is_a prerequisite
80 type check before the interface can be added to an instance. the
81 prerequisite types are also suuported in is_a checks of the interface.
82 (g_type_instance_is_a):
83 (g_type_check_instance_cast):
84 (g_type_check_instance): cleanups and optimizations.
86 (g_type_check_class_cast): same, also prevented these from accepting
87 interface types, as class structures don't nest interfaces.
89 2001-03-07 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
91 * Makefile.am: Avoid rebuilding everything everytime.
93 Wed Mar 7 09:36:33 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
95 * gboxed.[hc]: changed prototype of g_boxed_type_register_static()
96 to contain an optional init function and a hint at whether the
97 boxed structure uses ref counting internally.
98 added g_value_set_boxed_take_ownership().
99 made G_TYPE_BOXED an abstract value type.
101 * genums.[hc]: made G_TYPE_ENUM and G_TYPE_FLAGS abstract value
104 * glib-genmarshal.c: argument type changes, preparation for third-party
107 * gobject.[hc]: cleaned up get/set property code.
108 added g_strdup_value_contents() to improve warnings.
110 * gparam.[hc]: added g_param_value_convert(), taking over responsibility
111 of the old g_value_convert(). added G_PARAM_LAX_VALIDATION flag so
112 validation alterations may be valid a part of the property setting
115 * gparamspecs.[hc]: made value comparisons stable (for sort applications).
116 added GParamSpecValueArray, a param spec for value arrays and
117 GParamSpecClosure. nuked the value exchange functions and
120 * gtype.[hc]: catch unintialized usages of the type system with
121 g_return_val_if_uninitialized(). introduced G_TYPE_FLAG_VALUE_ABSTRACT
122 to flag types that introduce a value table, but can't be used for
123 g_value_init(). cleaned up reserved type ids.
125 * gvalue.[hc]: code cleanups and saner checking.
126 nuked the value exchange API. implemented value transformations, we
127 can't really "convert" values, rather transforms are an anylogy to
128 C casts, real conversions need a param spec for validation, which is
129 why g_param_value_convert() does real conversions now.
131 * gvaluearray.[hc]: new files that implement a GValueArray, a struct
132 that can hold inhomogeneous arrays of value (to that extend that it
133 also allowes undefined values, i.e. G_VALUE_TYPE(value)==0).
134 this is exposed to the type system as a boxed type.
136 * gvaluetransform.c: new file implementing most of the former value
137 exchange functions as single-sided transformations.
139 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: nuked G_TYPE_CCALLBACK, added
140 g_value_set_string_take_ownership().
142 * *.h: s/G_IS_VALUE_/G_VALUE_HOLDS_/.
144 * *.[hc]: many fixes and cleanups.
146 * many warning improvements.
148 Tue Feb 27 18:35:15 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
150 * gobject.c (g_object_get_valist): urg, pass G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS
151 into G_VALUE_LCOPY(), this needs proper documenting.
153 * gparam.c: fixed G_PARAM_USER_MASK.
155 * gtype.c (type_data_make_W):
156 (type_data_last_unref_Wm): fixed invalid memory freeing.
158 * gobject.c (g_object_last_unref): destroy signal handlers associated
159 with object, right before finalization.
161 * gsignal.c (g_signal_parse_name): catch destroyed nodes or signals
162 that don't actually support details.
164 * gobject.[hc]: got rid of property trailers. nuked GObject
165 properties "data" and the "signal" variants.
166 (g_object_connect): new convenience function to do multiple
167 signal connections at once.
168 (g_object_disconnect): likewise, for disconnections.
170 * gparam.[hc] (g_param_spec_pool_lookup): took out trailer support.
172 * gvalue.[hc]: marked g_value_fits_pointer() and g_value_peek_pointer()
173 as private (the latter got renamed from g_value_get_as_pointer()).
175 2001-02-21 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
177 * *.h: Use G_BEGIN_DECLS and G_END_DECLS.
179 * Makefile.am: Use libglib-1.3.la from top_builddir. Invoke
180 libtool with -no-undefined for Win32 and Cygwin.
182 Wed Feb 21 18:31:46 2001 Jonathan Blandford <jrb@redhat.com>
184 * gsignal.h (g_signal_connect): Add g_signal_connect define to
185 make porting from gtk_signal_connect easy.
187 * gsignal.c (g_signal_emit_valist): Use G_TYPE_FROM_INSTANCE
188 (instance) instead of node->itype when initting the value.
190 2001-02-17 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>
192 Applied patch from Soeren Sandmann:
194 * gvaluetypes.c (g_value_get_string): G_CONST_RETURN
196 * gtype.c (g_type_name): G_CONST_RETURN
198 * gsignal.c (g_signal_name): G_CONST_RETURN
200 * gobject-query.c (main): const fix
202 Sat Feb 17 07:58:46 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
204 * genums.h (G_TYPE_IS_FLAGS): patch from sven to fixup
205 G_ENUM_CLASS_TYPE() macro.
207 Sat Feb 17 04:55:35 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
209 * gtype.[hc]: changed collect_format, collect_value() and lcopy_format,
210 lcopy_value() in the GTypeValueTable. the collect functions are now
211 called only once per value, collect_format/lcopy_format are strings
212 that enlist all necessary GTypeCValues to be varargs-collected.
214 * gvalue.h: ranamed STATIC_TAG to G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS to indicate that
215 a value shouldn't copy its contents.
217 * gvaluecollector.h: changed G_VALUE_COLLECT() and G_VALUE_LCOPY()
218 macros to carry an additional argument (flags) that can be used
219 to pass G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS along to the collection functions.
221 * *.c: adapted collect_value() and lcopy_value() functions to the new
222 prototypes, support G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS where apropriate.
224 * gsignal.[hc]: introduced a G_SIGNAL_TYPE_STATIC_SCOPE flag that can
225 be passed along (ORed) with the parameter types, indicating that the
226 emission arguments are to be considered static for the scope of the
227 emission. should be used with care and only if the caller knows that
228 a parameter cannot be destroyed/freed from signal handlers connected
231 Fri Feb 16 07:10:44 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
235 (g_closure_sink): make closure sinking explicit.
238 (g_signal_connect_data):
239 (g_signal_connect_closure):
240 (g_signal_connect_closure_by_id):
241 (g_signal_newv): perform explicit closure sinking.
243 Thu Feb 8 00:31:45 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
245 * gtype.h: added G_TYPE_DEBUG_NONE for/from Eric Lemings ;)
247 2001-02-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
249 * gobject.def: Remove glib_debug_objects.
251 Sun Feb 4 07:30:53 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
253 * gtype.[hc]: changed g_type_init() to take debugging flags
254 initially, a combination of G_TYPE_DEBUG_OBJECTS and
255 G_TYPE_DEBUG_SIGNALS. using the G_TYPE_ prefix is a bit odd
256 here, but basically g_type_int() serves as initialization
257 fucntion for all of GType, GObject, GSignal, so what the heck.
259 * gobject.c: special case debugging code properly.
260 changed glib_trap_object_ref to g_trap_object_ref.
262 * gsignal.c: add signal emission debugging abilities, along with
263 a new trap object g_trap_instance_signals.
265 2001-02-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
267 * Makefile.am (progs_LDADD): Change order of libs to libgobject
268 first, then libglib. Needed for cygwin, says jbdoll@kepri.re.kr.
270 Wed Jan 31 06:19:49 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
272 * gparam.h: gtk-doc sucks for not dealing with #define inside enums.
274 * gtype.[hc]: added G_TYPE_FLAG_RESERVED_ID_BIT, a bit in the type
275 number that's supposed to be left untouched (preserved mainly
276 for the signal code).
278 * *.c: added thread safety code, based on an old patch from sebastian.
279 the remaining thread safety issues are now datalists on pspecs (to be
280 solved im gdataset.c) and gvalue.c where locking concerns value exchange
281 functionality only, and that's soon to be revised.
283 2001-01-27 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
285 * makefile.msc.in: Don't try to compile gmarshal.c on its own.
287 2001-01-24 <alexl@redhat.com>
289 * gclosure.c (g_closure_unref):
290 Don't leak closure->notifiers.
292 2001-01-05 Havoc Pennington <hp@redhat.com>
294 * gparamspecs.c (g_param_spec_enum): set the value_type in the
295 param spec; closes bug 40210
296 (g_param_spec_flags): ditto for flags
298 2001-01-03 Alexander Larsson <alexl@redhat.com>
301 Move glib_debug_objects out of the G_ENABLE_DEBUG #ifdef.
303 Thu Dec 28 11:36:44 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
305 * gbsearcharray.c (upper_power2): disable G_BSEARCH_ALIGN_POWER2
306 fucntionality if DISABLE_MEM_POOLS is defined.
308 * gtype.c: honour DISABLE_MEM_POOLS.
310 * gsignal.c (g_signal_init): flag signal key bsearch array with
311 G_BSEARCH_ALIGN_POWER2 to avoid excessive growth time. honour
314 * gparam.h: added G_PARAM_READWRITE alias for (G_PARAM_READABLE |
317 2000-12-15 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
319 * gobject.def: Update.
321 2000-12-15 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>
323 * gobject.c (g_object_do_class_init): use g_signal_newc
325 * gsignal.c (g_signal_newc): convenience function for signals
327 (g_signal_new_valist): added
328 (g_signal_new): removed
330 Fri Dec 15 04:40:23 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
332 * gparam.[hc]: add an instance member value_type so the default
333 value of the pspec class can be overridden.
335 2000-12-14 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
337 * makefile.mingw.in: Update, include parts from Makefile.am to
338 build gmarshal.[ch]. Some day, we won't need these separate
339 makefiles for Win32 compilation. I hope.
341 * makefile.msc.in: Update. No use trying to build gmarshal.[ch]
342 here, it would require Unixish tools. MSVC users building from CVS
343 sources are out of luck.
345 * gobject.def: Update.
347 Wed Dec 13 09:31:26 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
349 * gparamspecs.[hc]: add G_TYPE_PARAM_BOXED implementation.
351 * gobject.[hc]: minor fixes.
353 Tue Dec 12 23:38:02 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
355 * Makefile.am: _never_ touch oldest-source-stamp.
357 * gobject.[hc]: construct property handling fixes/improvements.
358 fixed trailer handling in get/set property.
360 * gparam.[hc]: implement param spec pool, got rid of param spec
361 hashtable. the most prominent change is that e deal with type
364 2000-12-12 Elliot Lee <sopwith@redhat.com>
367 . You have to 'touch oldest-source-stamp' if you want to avoid having
368 the Makefile constantly rebuild itself.
369 . Fix marshaller generation rules to work with srcdir != builddir
370 (there were issues with trying to run "./glib-genmarshal", etc.)
372 Mon Dec 11 04:44:11 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
374 * gboxed.c: fixed dealing with collection/lcopy of NULL values.
376 * gclosure.h: removed insane ramblings, added G_CALLBACK() a casting
379 * Makefile.am: cleanups, marshaller generation rules.
381 * gmarshal.[hc]: new files with GRuntime standard marshallers.
383 * glib-genmarshal.c: fix log domain, support gruntime standard
384 marshallers, suport G_TYPE_PARAM, come with extern "C" and
387 * glib-genmarshal.1: reflect glib-genmarshal.c updates.
389 * gobject.[hc]: implement object constructor. rework parameter
390 changed notification queueing, we support queue freezes now and
391 don't dispatch from an idle handler anymore.
392 parameter->property rename hassle.
393 implemented ::properties_changed and ::notify::* signals for
394 property change notification (the later supports property names
395 as details). added signal connection and named data properties.
396 (g_signal_connect_object): new function to setup while_alive
398 (g_object_class_install_property): sink properties now, since they
399 are initially floating.
400 (g_object_steal_data):
401 (g_object_set_data_full):
403 (g_object_get_data): set/get data by using g_datalist_*() functions
405 (g_object_queue_param_changed): nuked.
406 (g_object_freeze_notify): start queueing of property changes (freeze/
408 (g_object_notify): announce changes of a certain property directly.
409 (g_object_thaw_notify): process queue of property changes, therefore
410 emitting GObject::notify::detail with detail being the changed
412 (G_OBJECT_WARN_INVALID_PROPERTY_ID): saner macro variant of former
413 G_WARN_INVALID_PARAM_ID().
415 * gparam.[hc]: param specs are now initially floating and need to be
416 sunken with g_param_spec_sink(), support G_TYPE_PARAM values.
417 added G_PARAM_CONSTRUCT and G_PARAM_CONSTRUCT_ONLY parameter flags,
418 required by GObjectClass.constructor().
420 * gparamspecs.[hc]: added GParamSpecParam, GParamSpecPointer and
421 GParamSpecCCallback, param specs for G_TYPE_PARAM, G_TYPE_POINTER
422 and G_TYPE_CCALLBACK respectively.
424 * gsignal.[hc]: cleanups.
425 (signal_id_lookup): after walking the anchestry, try interfaces as well.
426 (g_signal_new): new function to create signals from varargs type list.
427 (g_signal_connect_closure): closure connection variant that works from
429 (g_signal_connect_data): c handler connection variant that works from
431 (g_signal_emit_valist): emit signal for an instance with paraneters
432 collected from a va_list.
433 (g_signal_emit): emit signal, taking parameters from varargs list.
434 (g_signal_emit_by_name): same as g_signal_emit, working from
436 (signal_emit_R): return whether return_value needs to be altered.
438 * gtype.[hc]: set log-domain to GRuntime, i'm slowly getting to all
439 the points that need to reflect the upcoming rename.
440 melt g_type_conforms_to() functionality into g_type_is_a(), as that
441 is what we really want (liskov substitution principle).
442 assorted changes to other files due to conforms_to->is_a.
444 * gvalue.[hc]: implemented g_value_set_instance() that sets a value
445 from an instantiatable type via the value_table's collect_value()
446 function (based on an idea from James Henstridge <james@daa.com.au>).
449 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: implement G_TYPE_CCALLBACK and G_TYPE_PARAM.
451 Wed Nov 29 13:30:05 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
453 * gsignal.c (handlers_find): fix elliots "logic fix" that dereferences
454 NULL nodes if C handlers are searched for specific signals.
456 2000-11-28 Elliot Lee <sopwith@redhat.com>
458 * gsignal.c: Fix warnings about possible use of uninitialized
459 variables, and fix logic that would leave 'node' unset in cases
460 that it might be used in.
462 * glib-genmarshal.c: Fix warning about printf format.
464 2000-11-28 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
466 * gboxed.c: Include <string.h> for memset ().
468 2000-11-22 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
470 * gobject.def: Update.
472 2000-11-20 Havoc Pennington <hp@redhat.com>
474 * gobject.c (g_object_get_data)
476 (g_object_set_data_full)
477 (g_object_steal_data): More convenient data-setting functions
479 Wed Nov 15 20:58:05 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
481 * gtypemodule.c (g_type_module_use): If loading the
482 module fails, don't increment the use count.
484 Thu Nov 9 01:49:43 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
486 * gobject.h (G_WARN_INVALID_PARAM_ID): doh,
487 s/BSE_OBJECT_TYPE_NAME/G_OBJECT_TYPE_NAME/; reported by Maas-Maarten
488 Zeeman <maas@wanadoo.nl>.
490 Mon Nov 13 00:48:39 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
492 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add glib-genmarshal.1
494 2000-11-11 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
496 * gtypemodule.c: Include stdlib.h for exit().
498 * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in (gobject_OBJECTS): Add gtypemodule.
500 * gobject.def: Add missing functions.
502 Sun Nov 5 13:21:28 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
504 * Makefile.am gtypemodule.[ch]: New basic implementation of
505 GTypePlugin interface as a GObject. Dynamically loaded modules can
506 register any number of types and interface on the module.
508 Sun Nov 5 10:25:40 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
510 * gsignal.c (handlers_find): When appending handlers and
511 not matching on signal_id, use hlist->signal_id instead of
512 signal_id. Having the correct signal_id when unreffing
513 the handlers makes things work a lot better.
515 2000-11-05 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
517 * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in (gobject_OBJECTS): Add gtypeplugin.
519 * gobject.def: Update.
521 Sun Nov 5 05:22:55 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
524 fixed a bag full of subtle bugs of immensive screw-up potential in
525 handlers_find(), luckily no one found out about them yet ;)
526 fixed signal_handlers_foreach_matched_R() so it operates on an
527 initial handler list snapshot provided by handlers_find() to work
528 around general reentrancy problems and to avoid multiple callback()
529 invocations on the same handlers.
530 this code is now officially 80% bug free (10% remaining for interface
531 types, and 10% remaining for destroyed signals ;)
533 Sat Nov 4 02:01:33 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
535 * gsignal.c (_g_signals_destroy): valid signal nodes start out at 1.
537 * gtypeplugin.[hc]: new files holding a GTypePlugin interface
538 implementation that provides the API required by GType to deal with
539 dynamically loadable types.
541 * gtype.[hc]: displace any GTypePlugin business to gtypeplugin.h.
543 Fri Nov 3 07:35:00 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
545 * gsignal.[hc]: prefix internal functions with '_'. renamed
546 g_signal_connect_closure() to g_signal_connect_closure_by_id().
547 added g_signal_parse_name() to retrive signal_id and detail quark
548 from a signal name (internal).
550 Wed Nov 1 03:36:54 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
552 * gobject.c (g_object_base_class_finalize): destroy all signals that
553 the finalized obejct type introduced.
555 * gsignal.c (g_signals_destroy): don't require itype to have
558 * gobject.c (g_object_do_finalize): make sure all signal handlers
562 (g_signal_handler_find): only match on non-0 masks.
563 (g_signal_handlers_block_matched):
564 (g_signal_handlers_unblock_matched):
565 (g_signal_handlers_disconnect_matched): new functions to block/unblock
566 or disconnect handlers in groups.
568 2000-10-30 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
570 * gvalue.c (exchange_entries_equal), gparam.c (param_spec_equals):
571 made both functions return gboolean just for the little extra
572 standard conformance now that GEqualFunc is introduced.
574 Mon Oct 30 05:52:45 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
576 * gsignal.c (g_signal_list_ids): get rid of inline documentation owen
577 added, the doc system would ignore it anyways (for some reason not
580 Mon Oct 30 03:00:07 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
582 * gsignal.[hc] (g_signal_list_ids): renamed owen's g_type_signals(),
583 added required mutex locks.
585 Sun Oct 29 02:31:03 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
587 * gsignal.c (g_type_signals): Fix problem where signals
588 with "_" in them appeared twice in the result array.
590 Sun Oct 29 01:58:44 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
592 * gsignal.h: Add g_type_signals() - a function to list
593 all signals for a given type.
595 Sat Oct 28 00:28:09 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
597 * gclosure.c (g_closure_add_marshal_guards): fixed notifier position
598 for post_marshal guard which was off at 0.
600 Fri Oct 27 21:49:31 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
602 * gobject.[hc]: doh, fix argument order in for
603 g_cclosure_new_object_swap and g_cclosure_new_object.
605 2000-10-28 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
607 * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in: Make glib-genmarshal.exe.
609 * glib-genmarshal.c: Conditionalise include of unistd.h.
610 Include <io.h> on Win32.
612 * gobject.def: Add some missing entry points.
614 Fri Oct 27 16:33:41 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
616 * gsignal.[hc]: publically define GSignalInvocationHint structure
617 that gets passed in to closure invocations. added signal details.
618 renamed GSignalType to GSignalFlags to comply with conventions.
619 quite some cleanups and minor fixes. avoid uneccessary handler list
620 walks upon invokation of after handlers. relookup handler list for
621 restarted emissions. preliminary abort normal handler invokation if
622 after handler is encountered.
625 * gclosure.[hc]: moved invocation_hint to the end of the
626 g_closure_invoke() arguments as sugegsted by kenelson.
627 also made it a gpointer to be more generic. the invocation_hint
628 is a caller specific thing that can be used to pass additional
629 data in to closure invocations as documented with the caller
630 invoking the closure.
632 Fri Oct 27 05:35:14 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
634 * gobject.c (g_object_watch_closure): fixed realloc bug, reported
637 * gsignal.c (g_signal_newv): fixed deadlock scenarion where
638 g_signal_lookup() would be called with the signal lock being
639 held. reported by james henstridge.
641 * gclosure.c (g_closure_set_meta_marshal): fixed memcpy/overwrite bug
644 2000-10-26 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>

647 arithmetic on void pointer, label without statement following.
649 * gtype.c (type_node_fundamental_info): Don't apply unary minus to
650 result of sizeof operator, it can be unsigned. Cast first to
653 * gobject.def: Add new functions.
655 * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in: Add new objects.
657 2000-10-26 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
659 * Makefile.am: Remove empty SUBDIRS line _again_, as that _still_
660 prevents 'make dist' from working.
662 Wed Oct 25 19:11:03 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
664 * gbsearcharray.h (g_bsearch_array_get_nth): Don't use implicit
665 casts from void * since this will get included from C++ too
668 Thu Oct 26 00:30:27 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
670 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: added g_value_set_static_string().
672 * gboxed.[hc]: const corrections. added g_value_set_static_boxed().
674 Wed Oct 25 20:27:02 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
676 * gtype.c (g_type_free_instance): for the moment, freeing object
677 structures will fill their memory portion with 0xAA. there's a
678 FIXME there, remove this line at a later point.
680 Tue Oct 24 23:10:26 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
683 * glib-genmarshal.c: added publically installed marshaller generator.
685 * gtype.h: added G_TYPE_INSTANCE_GET_INTERFACE() to retrive a certain
686 interface VTable from instances.
688 Mon Oct 23 08:28:15 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
690 * gobject.[hc]: new functions for closure maintenance:
691 (g_object_watch_closure): maintain validity of the object and
692 the closure for objects that are used as data part of a closure.
693 (g_cclosure_new_object): convenience function to create C closures
694 that have an object as data argument.
695 (g_closure_new_object): convenience function to create closures
696 that have an object as data argument.
698 * gclosure.[hc]: implementation of GClosure mechanism.
699 a closure is basically an encapsulation of a callback function
700 and its environment. ideally, most places supporting callback
701 functions will simply take a GClosure* pointer and thus unify
702 callback environments wrg destroy notification etc.
703 GClosure provides destroy notifiers for arbitrary data pointers,
704 reference counting, invalidation notification (it can be invalidated
705 which is merely a deactivate state) and a marshallinbg abstraction.
706 GCClosure is also provided in these files, they present a specialized
707 GClosure implementation for C language callbacks.
709 * genum.c: macro cleanups.
711 * gboxed.[hc]: new files, for boxed type abstraction.
712 (g_boxed_copy): copy a boxed structure
713 (g_boxed_free): free a boxed structure
715 (g_value_get_boxed): standard GValue functions for boxed types
716 (g_boxed_type_register_static): convenience function for easy
717 introduction of new G_TYPE_BOXED derivatives.
719 * gparam.[hc]: introduced g_param_type_register_static(), a short hand
720 for creation of new GParamSpec derived types.
722 * gtype.[hc]: many fixes, introduced ability to flag individual
723 type nodes as ABSTRACT upon registration, added value_peek_pointer()
724 to the value table to peek at GValue contents as a pointer for types
725 that support this. fixed up GValue checks.
727 * gvalue.[hc]: added g_value_fits_pointer() and g_value_get_as_pointer()
728 to peek at the value contents as pointer.
730 * *.[hc]: adaptions to type macro fixes and changes in the type
733 * many const corrections over the place.
735 Sat Oct 21 02:49:56 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
737 * gtype.c (g_type_conforms_to): this function basically behaves like
738 and is_a check, except that it _additionally_ features interfaces
739 for instantiatable types. enforce this in the second branch as well
740 (`type' conforms_to `type') even if `type' is not an interface type.
742 Fri Oct 20 15:31:04 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
744 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: added G_TYPE_POINTER implementation from jrb.
748 * gvaluetypes.c: added GTypeValueTable.value_peek_pointer and
749 suitable implementations of this for G_TYPE_STRING, G_TYPE_OBJECT
752 Mon Aug 21 04:13:37 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
754 * gbsearcharray.[hc]: long standing needed generic implementation
755 of a binary searchable, sorted and dynamically sized array.
757 2000-10-15 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
759 * Makefile.am (BUILT_EXTRA_DIST): New variable.
760 (dist-hook): Handle $(BUILT_EXTRA_DIST).
761 (*): Remove traces of @STRIP_{BEGIN,END}@.
763 2000-09-29 Martin Baulig <baulig@suse.de>
765 Several minor ANSI C fixes.
768 * gtype.c (type_class_init):
769 `(gpointer) bnode->data->class.class_init_base'
770 in call to g_slist_prepend() and
771 'GBaseInitFunc class_init_base = (GBaseInitFunc) slist->data'.
773 * gobject.c: Put text following #endif into comments.
775 2000-09-25 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
777 * Makefile.am: Remove empty SUBDIRS line, as that prevents make
780 Sat Sep 9 20:04:13 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
782 * gobject.c (g_object_last_unref): Move call to
783 g_type_free_instance() here from g_object_do_finalize,
784 since g_type_free_instance() can unload the object's
787 2000-07-27 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
789 * gobject.c: No, don't mark glib_debug_objects for export here,
790 it's handled specially in gtktypeutils.c.
792 * gobject.def: Export g_type_fundamental_last (the function).
794 2000-07-26 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
797 * gobject.c: Mark glib_debug_objects for export/import as it is
800 Sun Jul 23 17:23:35 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
802 * gtype.[hc]: make g_type_fundamental_last() a function, avoiding all
803 that extern variable clutter and avoiding further problems with thread
806 2000-07-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
811 * gtype.c: Shut up Sun's picky compiler.
813 2000-07-14 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
815 * gobject.def: Add g_type_get_plugin.
817 Thu Jul 13 02:07:54 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
819 * gparam.c (g_param_value_defaults): default initialize the temporary
820 default value, instead of nuking the caller's value contents.
822 2000-07-11 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
824 * gtype.c (g_type_get_plugin): Don't return just 0 or 1.
826 Tue Jul 11 02:48:13 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
828 * gtype.[hc]: removed g_type_is_dynamic() and added g_type_get_plugin().
830 2000-07-10 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
832 * gobject-query.c: Include ../config.h for HAVE_UNISTD_H. Use it
833 to guard inclusion of <unistd.h>.
835 * gtype.h: Fix copy-paste errors in the ifdefs on how to declare a
836 variable for export. Call the macro GOBJECT_VAR.
838 * gtype.c: Declare _g_type_fundamental_last for export here, too.
839 (type_node_any_new): Use only constant expressions for sizeof
840 operator (for instance MSVC requires this).
842 * makefile.mingw.in: Define GOBJECT_COMPILATION.
844 Sun Jul 9 21:21:46 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
846 * genums.c: Move string.h include into the .c file
847 instead of where it was in the .h file by mistake.
849 Thu Jul 6 15:30:27 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
851 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): dist fixes.
853 * gobject.c: Add a global variable glib_debug_objects
854 (not in header file) to control object tracing.
856 2000-07-01 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
858 * gobject.def: Update added and renamed entry points.
860 * makefile.mingw.in: Add gvaluetypes.o.
862 Thu Jun 29 16:02:07 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
864 * gobject.c:include string.h for memset
865 * genums.h: include string.h for strcpy
866 * gvalue.c: include string.h for memset, memcpy.
868 Sat Jun 24 23:03:04 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
870 * gtype.[hc]: provide G_TYPE_CHAR, G_TYPE_UCHAR, G_TYPE_BOOLEAN,
871 G_TYPE_INT, G_TYPE_UINT, G_TYPE_LONG, G_TYPE_ULONG, G_TYPE_FLOAT,
872 G_TYPE_DOUBLE and G_TYPE_STRING fundamental types.
873 added a GTypeValueTable* pointer to GTypeInfo structure for types
874 to implement GValue handling functions.
875 GTypeValueTable contains the following members:
876 value_init(): initialize a GValue structure.
877 value_free(): free GValue structure contents (optional).
878 value_copy(): copy one GValue contents to another GValue structure of
879 collect_type: varargs collection type for the first variable argument
880 to be collected by collect_value().
881 collect_value(): variable arguments collection function (optional).
882 lcopy_type: varargs collection type for the first variable argument
883 to be location copyied by lcopy_value().
884 lcopy_value(): variable arguments location copy function (optional).
885 g_type_value_table_peek(): new function to retrive the GTypeValueTable*
886 for a type node. ValueTables get inherited from parent types, unless
887 overridden through the GTypeInfo structure. internally, GTypeValueTable
888 support means an added overhead of one pointer per static or used
890 g_type_add_class_cache_func(): provide a cache_func/data pair to be
891 called prior to a type nodes last_unref() function, this can be used
892 to prevent premature class destruction. multiple installed cache_func()
893 will be chained upon last_unref() untill one of them returns TRUE.
894 the cache_func()s have to check the class id passed in to figure whether
895 they actually want to cache the class of this type (since all classes
896 are routed through the cache_func() chain).
897 g_type_remove_class_cache_func(): remove a previously installed
898 cache_func/data pair. the cache maintained by this function has to be
899 clear when calling g_type_remove_class_cache_func() to avoid leaks.
900 g_type_class_unref_uncached(): class unref function for cache_func()
901 implementations, unreferences a class omitting the cache chain (and
902 therefore unref->cache->unref->... loops).
904 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: provide the value setters/getters for the primitive
905 fundamental types boolean, char, uchar, int, uint, long, ulong, float,
908 * gvalue.[hc]: provide G_TYPE_IS_VALUE() in terms of whether a
909 GTypeValueTable is provided for this type.
910 removed g_value_init_default(), g_value_validate(), g_value_defaults(),
911 g_value_set_default() and g_values_cmp() as these are supplied by the
913 moved g_values_exchange() into the "implementation details" section,
914 since it just provides the underlying functionality for
917 * gvaluecollector.h: renamed the varargs value container from
918 GParamCValue to GTypeCValue as the value collection methods are
919 supplied by the type system now.
920 G_PARAM_COLLECT_VALUE() and G_PARAM_LCOPY_VALUE() got renamed to
921 G_VALUE_COLLECT() and G_VALUE_LCOPY() and operate without a
922 GParamSpec structure now.
924 * genums.h: macros cleanups/fixes.
926 * genum.c: provide G_TYPE_ENUM and G_TYPE_FLAGS type
927 and assorted g_value_{s|g}et_{enum|flags}() implementations.
930 provide G_IS_VALUE_OBJECT(), G_TYPE_OBJECT ValueTable methods
931 and g_value_{s|g}et_object().
933 * gparam.[hc]: reduced class to value_set_default(),
934 value_validate() and values_cmp(). also parameters now need to fill
935 in a GType value_type; field to indicate the GValue type they
936 are handling. provide g_param_value_set_default(),
937 g_param_value_defaults(), g_param_value_validate() and
938 g_param_values_cmp().
940 * gparamspecs.[hc]: got rid of the g_value_* functions and
941 the G_IS_VALUE_* macros. adapted param spec implementations
942 according to the GParamSpecClass changes.
944 Sat Jun 10 08:38:27 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
946 * gtype.c (type_class_init): fetch the nth iface entry of the
947 type node in the nth loop iteration, not alwys the first.
948 bug discovered by Walt Pohl <cher@suitware.com>.
949 (type_data_finalize_class_ifaces): same here, cut and paste
952 Wed Jun 7 09:21:05 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
954 * Makefile.am (INCLUDES): Add top_builddir so glibconfig.h
955 is found properly when build srcdir != builddir. (Patch from
958 2000-05-13 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
962 * gobject.rc.in: New files, for Win32 (mingw) build.
964 * Makefile.am: Add to EXTRA_DIST. Add rules to produce the
965 corresponding non-*.in files.
967 * gtype.h: (Win32:) Mark _g_type_fundamental_last for
968 export/import from DLL.
970 Fri May 5 01:15:48 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
972 * gtype.h: add reserved fundamental ids for gtk types (for transition
973 time). added G_TYPE_FUNDAMENTAL_MAX for gtk.
975 Mon Apr 17 20:45:50 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
977 * glib-gobject.c (g_object_base_class_finalize): oops, don't unset
978 n_params prior to destructing them.
980 Tue Apr 11 04:28:10 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
982 * fixed a couple of bugs in the initial parameter/object
983 implementations, after getting beast running on GObject and GValue.
985 Fri Apr 7 04:27:49 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
987 * glib-gobject.[hc]: completed parameter set/get implementations,
988 along with asyncronous parameter changed notification queue.
990 Sun Apr 2 04:54:36 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
992 * glib-gobject.[hc]: GObject implementation, that is facilities
993 for setting/getting quarked data and reference counting.
995 * glib-gparamspecs.[hc]: first actuall parameter implementations
996 for GLib, so far we have: char, uchar, bool, int, uint, long,
997 ulong, enum, flags, float, double, string and object. each of these
998 GParamSpecs is a new instantiatable type in its own respect,
999 so the .c file derives 13 new types from G_TYPE_PARAM and
1000 defines over 50 (*2) conversion facilities.
1002 * glib-gvaluecollector.h: generic varargs handling stubs for
1003 GParamSpecs, private header file (does get installed for
1004 inclusion into user code though).
1006 * glib-gvalue.[hc]: GValue functionality implementation.
1008 * glib-gparam.[hc]: basis GParamSpec implementation for
1009 the virtual base type G_TYPE_PARAM.
1011 * glib-genums.[hc]: enum/flags type implementation, based on
1014 * glib-gtype.[hc]: GLib Type System implementation, heavily
1015 based on BSE's dynamic type system.
