1 Sat Mar 17 23:18:36 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
3 * gobject.c (g_object_get_property): minor bug-fix.
5 * gbsearcharray.[hc]: provide a macro for static initialization and
6 functions g_bsearch_array_new() and g_bsearch_array_destroy() for
9 * gboxed.c: introduce G_TYPE_GSTRING, boxed type for GString.
11 * gclosure.[hc]: naming corrections.
13 Fri Mar 9 16:42:08 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
15 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: moved g_strdup_value_contents() into this file as
16 a public function (was static in gobject.c before). it's a bit odd
17 to have that function here, especially since it requires extra includes,
18 but then it doesn't very well fit somewhere else either.
20 * gparamspecs.c: added default/max/min checks to param spec creation
23 2001-03-10 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
25 * gobject.def: Add a couple of missing entries.
27 * Makefile.am (libgobject_1_3_la_LIBADD): Use only on Win32.
29 Fri Mar 9 14:57:17 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
31 * testgruntime.c: test program. covers run first/last/cleanup signal
32 handlers, return value accumulator, signal string returns, and
33 interface types in signal arguments.
35 * gtype.c (g_type_value_table_peek): for interface types without
36 value table, try looking up a value table from an instantiatable
37 prerequisite type (this is safe as an interface may only have
38 one instantiatable prerequisiste).
39 (type_check_is_value_type_U): same here.
41 * gsignal.c (g_signal_newv): assert that return types never have
42 G_SIGNAL_TYPE_STATIC_SCOPE set.
43 (g_signal_newc): only create class closure if the class_offset is not
46 Fri Mar 9 10:14:00 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
48 * gparamspecs.c (g_param_spec_object): use g_type_is_a() to check
49 for object_type being a G_TYPE_OBJECT, not G_TYPE_IS_OBJECT(), since
50 that wouldn't allow interface types.
52 * gtype.c (g_type_interface_add_prerequisite): arg, fixed small cnp bug
53 with bad implications and an off-by-one error.
55 Thu Mar 8 16:34:22 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
57 * gvaluetransform.c: Include <string.h> for memcpy.
59 * gvaluetransform.c (DEFINE_SPRINTF): Remove unnecessary
60 and ANSI-illegal ## token pasting.
62 Thu Mar 8 18:11:52 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
64 * gsignal.c: eek, fixed old hook detail storage code.
66 Thu Mar 8 16:35:48 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
68 * gparamspecs.[hc]: s/g_param_spec_string_c/g_param_spec_stringc/.
70 * gsignal.[hc]: fixed accumulator invocation, implemented emission
71 hooks. and no, neither of these callbacks are called via a closure,
72 language bindings can wrap the accumulator and emission hook
73 interface, they already get parameters marshalled into a GValue array.
74 (g_signal_connect): removed this function as its C specific, doesn't
75 cover the swapped argument, is too close to its broken original
76 gtk_signal_connect() and creates demand for _swapped, _after and
77 _swapped_after variants <brrr>.
78 (g_signal_connectc): convenience macro to connect a C handler
79 func with data, like the old g_signal_connect() plus swapped
83 * gboxed.c: added G_TYPE_VALUE boxed type.
85 Wed Mar 7 19:02:51 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
87 * gtype.c (type_node_add_iface_entry_W): catch when adding an interface
88 to an ancestor of a child that already conforms to this interface.
89 currently we spew a warning here, should we be silent?
90 (g_type_interface_add_prerequisite): new function to add a prerequisite
91 type to an interface, that must succeed an instance is_a prerequisite
92 type check before the interface can be added to an instance. the
93 prerequisite types are also suuported in is_a checks of the interface.
94 (g_type_instance_is_a):
95 (g_type_check_instance_cast):
96 (g_type_check_instance): cleanups and optimizations.
98 (g_type_check_class_cast): same, also prevented these from accepting
99 interface types, as class structures don't nest interfaces.
101 2001-03-07 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
103 * Makefile.am: Avoid rebuilding everything everytime.
105 Wed Mar 7 09:36:33 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
107 * gboxed.[hc]: changed prototype of g_boxed_type_register_static()
108 to contain an optional init function and a hint at whether the
109 boxed structure uses ref counting internally.
110 added g_value_set_boxed_take_ownership().
111 made G_TYPE_BOXED an abstract value type.
113 * genums.[hc]: made G_TYPE_ENUM and G_TYPE_FLAGS abstract value
116 * glib-genmarshal.c: argument type changes, preparation for third-party
119 * gobject.[hc]: cleaned up get/set property code.
120 added g_strdup_value_contents() to improve warnings.
122 * gparam.[hc]: added g_param_value_convert(), taking over responsibility
123 of the old g_value_convert(). added G_PARAM_LAX_VALIDATION flag so
124 validation alterations may be valid a part of the property setting
127 * gparamspecs.[hc]: made value comparisons stable (for sort applications).
128 added GParamSpecValueArray, a param spec for value arrays and
129 GParamSpecClosure. nuked the value exchange functions and
132 * gtype.[hc]: catch unintialized usages of the type system with
133 g_return_val_if_uninitialized(). introduced G_TYPE_FLAG_VALUE_ABSTRACT
134 to flag types that introduce a value table, but can't be used for
135 g_value_init(). cleaned up reserved type ids.
137 * gvalue.[hc]: code cleanups and saner checking.
138 nuked the value exchange API. implemented value transformations, we
139 can't really "convert" values, rather transforms are an anylogy to
140 C casts, real conversions need a param spec for validation, which is
141 why g_param_value_convert() does real conversions now.
143 * gvaluearray.[hc]: new files that implement a GValueArray, a struct
144 that can hold inhomogeneous arrays of value (to that extend that it
145 also allowes undefined values, i.e. G_VALUE_TYPE(value)==0).
146 this is exposed to the type system as a boxed type.
148 * gvaluetransform.c: new file implementing most of the former value
149 exchange functions as single-sided transformations.
151 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: nuked G_TYPE_CCALLBACK, added
152 g_value_set_string_take_ownership().
154 * *.h: s/G_IS_VALUE_/G_VALUE_HOLDS_/.
156 * *.[hc]: many fixes and cleanups.
158 * many warning improvements.
160 Tue Feb 27 18:35:15 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
162 * gobject.c (g_object_get_valist): urg, pass G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS
163 into G_VALUE_LCOPY(), this needs proper documenting.
165 * gparam.c: fixed G_PARAM_USER_MASK.
167 * gtype.c (type_data_make_W):
168 (type_data_last_unref_Wm): fixed invalid memory freeing.
170 * gobject.c (g_object_last_unref): destroy signal handlers associated
171 with object, right before finalization.
173 * gsignal.c (g_signal_parse_name): catch destroyed nodes or signals
174 that don't actually support details.
176 * gobject.[hc]: got rid of property trailers. nuked GObject
177 properties "data" and the "signal" variants.
178 (g_object_connect): new convenience function to do multiple
179 signal connections at once.
180 (g_object_disconnect): likewise, for disconnections.
182 * gparam.[hc] (g_param_spec_pool_lookup): took out trailer support.
184 * gvalue.[hc]: marked g_value_fits_pointer() and g_value_peek_pointer()
185 as private (the latter got renamed from g_value_get_as_pointer()).
187 2001-02-21 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
189 * *.h: Use G_BEGIN_DECLS and G_END_DECLS.
191 * Makefile.am: Use libglib-1.3.la from top_builddir. Invoke
192 libtool with -no-undefined for Win32 and Cygwin.
194 Wed Feb 21 18:31:46 2001 Jonathan Blandford <jrb@redhat.com>
196 * gsignal.h (g_signal_connect): Add g_signal_connect define to
197 make porting from gtk_signal_connect easy.
199 * gsignal.c (g_signal_emit_valist): Use G_TYPE_FROM_INSTANCE
200 (instance) instead of node->itype when initting the value.
202 2001-02-17 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>
204 Applied patch from Soeren Sandmann:
206 * gvaluetypes.c (g_value_get_string): G_CONST_RETURN
208 * gtype.c (g_type_name): G_CONST_RETURN
210 * gsignal.c (g_signal_name): G_CONST_RETURN
212 * gobject-query.c (main): const fix
214 Sat Feb 17 07:58:46 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
216 * genums.h (G_TYPE_IS_FLAGS): patch from sven to fixup
217 G_ENUM_CLASS_TYPE() macro.
219 Sat Feb 17 04:55:35 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
221 * gtype.[hc]: changed collect_format, collect_value() and lcopy_format,
222 lcopy_value() in the GTypeValueTable. the collect functions are now
223 called only once per value, collect_format/lcopy_format are strings
224 that enlist all necessary GTypeCValues to be varargs-collected.
226 * gvalue.h: ranamed STATIC_TAG to G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS to indicate that
227 a value shouldn't copy its contents.
229 * gvaluecollector.h: changed G_VALUE_COLLECT() and G_VALUE_LCOPY()
230 macros to carry an additional argument (flags) that can be used
231 to pass G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS along to the collection functions.
233 * *.c: adapted collect_value() and lcopy_value() functions to the new
234 prototypes, support G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS where apropriate.
236 * gsignal.[hc]: introduced a G_SIGNAL_TYPE_STATIC_SCOPE flag that can
237 be passed along (ORed) with the parameter types, indicating that the
238 emission arguments are to be considered static for the scope of the
239 emission. should be used with care and only if the caller knows that
240 a parameter cannot be destroyed/freed from signal handlers connected
243 Fri Feb 16 07:10:44 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
247 (g_closure_sink): make closure sinking explicit.
250 (g_signal_connect_data):
251 (g_signal_connect_closure):
252 (g_signal_connect_closure_by_id):
253 (g_signal_newv): perform explicit closure sinking.
255 Thu Feb 8 00:31:45 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
257 * gtype.h: added G_TYPE_DEBUG_NONE for/from Eric Lemings ;)
259 2001-02-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
261 * gobject.def: Remove glib_debug_objects.
263 Sun Feb 4 07:30:53 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
265 * gtype.[hc]: changed g_type_init() to take debugging flags
266 initially, a combination of G_TYPE_DEBUG_OBJECTS and
267 G_TYPE_DEBUG_SIGNALS. using the G_TYPE_ prefix is a bit odd
268 here, but basically g_type_int() serves as initialization
269 fucntion for all of GType, GObject, GSignal, so what the heck.
271 * gobject.c: special case debugging code properly.
272 changed glib_trap_object_ref to g_trap_object_ref.
274 * gsignal.c: add signal emission debugging abilities, along with
275 a new trap object g_trap_instance_signals.
277 2001-02-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
279 * Makefile.am (progs_LDADD): Change order of libs to libgobject
280 first, then libglib. Needed for cygwin, says jbdoll@kepri.re.kr.
282 Wed Jan 31 06:19:49 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
284 * gparam.h: gtk-doc sucks for not dealing with #define inside enums.
286 * gtype.[hc]: added G_TYPE_FLAG_RESERVED_ID_BIT, a bit in the type
287 number that's supposed to be left untouched (preserved mainly
288 for the signal code).
290 * *.c: added thread safety code, based on an old patch from sebastian.
291 the remaining thread safety issues are now datalists on pspecs (to be
292 solved im gdataset.c) and gvalue.c where locking concerns value exchange
293 functionality only, and that's soon to be revised.
295 2001-01-27 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
297 * makefile.msc.in: Don't try to compile gmarshal.c on its own.
299 2001-01-24 <alexl@redhat.com>
301 * gclosure.c (g_closure_unref):
302 Don't leak closure->notifiers.
304 2001-01-05 Havoc Pennington <hp@redhat.com>
306 * gparamspecs.c (g_param_spec_enum): set the value_type in the
307 param spec; closes bug 40210
308 (g_param_spec_flags): ditto for flags
310 2001-01-03 Alexander Larsson <alexl@redhat.com>
313 Move glib_debug_objects out of the G_ENABLE_DEBUG #ifdef.
315 Thu Dec 28 11:36:44 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
317 * gbsearcharray.c (upper_power2): disable G_BSEARCH_ALIGN_POWER2
318 fucntionality if DISABLE_MEM_POOLS is defined.
320 * gtype.c: honour DISABLE_MEM_POOLS.
322 * gsignal.c (g_signal_init): flag signal key bsearch array with
323 G_BSEARCH_ALIGN_POWER2 to avoid excessive growth time. honour
326 * gparam.h: added G_PARAM_READWRITE alias for (G_PARAM_READABLE |
329 2000-12-15 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
331 * gobject.def: Update.
333 2000-12-15 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>
335 * gobject.c (g_object_do_class_init): use g_signal_newc
337 * gsignal.c (g_signal_newc): convenience function for signals
339 (g_signal_new_valist): added
340 (g_signal_new): removed
342 Fri Dec 15 04:40:23 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
344 * gparam.[hc]: add an instance member value_type so the default
345 value of the pspec class can be overridden.
347 2000-12-14 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
349 * makefile.mingw.in: Update, include parts from Makefile.am to
350 build gmarshal.[ch]. Some day, we won't need these separate
351 makefiles for Win32 compilation. I hope.
353 * makefile.msc.in: Update. No use trying to build gmarshal.[ch]
354 here, it would require Unixish tools. MSVC users building from CVS
355 sources are out of luck.
357 * gobject.def: Update.
359 Wed Dec 13 09:31:26 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
361 * gparamspecs.[hc]: add G_TYPE_PARAM_BOXED implementation.
363 * gobject.[hc]: minor fixes.
365 Tue Dec 12 23:38:02 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
367 * Makefile.am: _never_ touch oldest-source-stamp.
369 * gobject.[hc]: construct property handling fixes/improvements.
370 fixed trailer handling in get/set property.
372 * gparam.[hc]: implement param spec pool, got rid of param spec
373 hashtable. the most prominent change is that e deal with type
376 2000-12-12 Elliot Lee <sopwith@redhat.com>
379 . You have to 'touch oldest-source-stamp' if you want to avoid having
380 the Makefile constantly rebuild itself.
381 . Fix marshaller generation rules to work with srcdir != builddir
382 (there were issues with trying to run "./glib-genmarshal", etc.)
384 Mon Dec 11 04:44:11 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
386 * gboxed.c: fixed dealing with collection/lcopy of NULL values.
388 * gclosure.h: removed insane ramblings, added G_CALLBACK() a casting
391 * Makefile.am: cleanups, marshaller generation rules.
393 * gmarshal.[hc]: new files with GRuntime standard marshallers.
395 * glib-genmarshal.c: fix log domain, support gruntime standard
396 marshallers, suport G_TYPE_PARAM, come with extern "C" and
399 * glib-genmarshal.1: reflect glib-genmarshal.c updates.
401 * gobject.[hc]: implement object constructor. rework parameter
402 changed notification queueing, we support queue freezes now and
403 don't dispatch from an idle handler anymore.
404 parameter->property rename hassle.
405 implemented ::properties_changed and ::notify::* signals for
406 property change notification (the later supports property names
407 as details). added signal connection and named data properties.
408 (g_signal_connect_object): new function to setup while_alive
410 (g_object_class_install_property): sink properties now, since they
411 are initially floating.
412 (g_object_steal_data):
413 (g_object_set_data_full):
415 (g_object_get_data): set/get data by using g_datalist_*() functions
417 (g_object_queue_param_changed): nuked.
418 (g_object_freeze_notify): start queueing of property changes (freeze/
420 (g_object_notify): announce changes of a certain property directly.
421 (g_object_thaw_notify): process queue of property changes, therefore
422 emitting GObject::notify::detail with detail being the changed
424 (G_OBJECT_WARN_INVALID_PROPERTY_ID): saner macro variant of former
425 G_WARN_INVALID_PARAM_ID().
427 * gparam.[hc]: param specs are now initially floating and need to be
428 sunken with g_param_spec_sink(), support G_TYPE_PARAM values.
429 added G_PARAM_CONSTRUCT and G_PARAM_CONSTRUCT_ONLY parameter flags,
430 required by GObjectClass.constructor().
432 * gparamspecs.[hc]: added GParamSpecParam, GParamSpecPointer and
433 GParamSpecCCallback, param specs for G_TYPE_PARAM, G_TYPE_POINTER
434 and G_TYPE_CCALLBACK respectively.
436 * gsignal.[hc]: cleanups.
437 (signal_id_lookup): after walking the anchestry, try interfaces as well.
438 (g_signal_new): new function to create signals from varargs type list.
439 (g_signal_connect_closure): closure connection variant that works from
441 (g_signal_connect_data): c handler connection variant that works from
443 (g_signal_emit_valist): emit signal for an instance with paraneters
444 collected from a va_list.
445 (g_signal_emit): emit signal, taking parameters from varargs list.
446 (g_signal_emit_by_name): same as g_signal_emit, working from
448 (signal_emit_R): return whether return_value needs to be altered.
450 * gtype.[hc]: set log-domain to GRuntime, i'm slowly getting to all
451 the points that need to reflect the upcoming rename.
452 melt g_type_conforms_to() functionality into g_type_is_a(), as that
453 is what we really want (liskov substitution principle).
454 assorted changes to other files due to conforms_to->is_a.
456 * gvalue.[hc]: implemented g_value_set_instance() that sets a value
457 from an instantiatable type via the value_table's collect_value()
458 function (based on an idea from James Henstridge <james@daa.com.au>).
461 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: implement G_TYPE_CCALLBACK and G_TYPE_PARAM.
463 Wed Nov 29 13:30:05 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
465 * gsignal.c (handlers_find): fix elliots "logic fix" that dereferences
466 NULL nodes if C handlers are searched for specific signals.
468 2000-11-28 Elliot Lee <sopwith@redhat.com>
470 * gsignal.c: Fix warnings about possible use of uninitialized
471 variables, and fix logic that would leave 'node' unset in cases
472 that it might be used in.
474 * glib-genmarshal.c: Fix warning about printf format.
476 2000-11-28 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
478 * gboxed.c: Include <string.h> for memset ().
480 2000-11-22 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
482 * gobject.def: Update.
484 2000-11-20 Havoc Pennington <hp@redhat.com>
486 * gobject.c (g_object_get_data)
488 (g_object_set_data_full)
489 (g_object_steal_data): More convenient data-setting functions
491 Wed Nov 15 20:58:05 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
493 * gtypemodule.c (g_type_module_use): If loading the
494 module fails, don't increment the use count.
496 Thu Nov 9 01:49:43 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
498 * gobject.h (G_WARN_INVALID_PARAM_ID): doh,
499 s/BSE_OBJECT_TYPE_NAME/G_OBJECT_TYPE_NAME/; reported by Maas-Maarten
500 Zeeman <maas@wanadoo.nl>.
502 Mon Nov 13 00:48:39 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
504 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add glib-genmarshal.1
506 2000-11-11 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
508 * gtypemodule.c: Include stdlib.h for exit().
510 * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in (gobject_OBJECTS): Add gtypemodule.
512 * gobject.def: Add missing functions.
514 Sun Nov 5 13:21:28 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
516 * Makefile.am gtypemodule.[ch]: New basic implementation of
517 GTypePlugin interface as a GObject. Dynamically loaded modules can
518 register any number of types and interface on the module.
520 Sun Nov 5 10:25:40 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
522 * gsignal.c (handlers_find): When appending handlers and
523 not matching on signal_id, use hlist->signal_id instead of
524 signal_id. Having the correct signal_id when unreffing
525 the handlers makes things work a lot better.
527 2000-11-05 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
529 * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in (gobject_OBJECTS): Add gtypeplugin.
531 * gobject.def: Update.
533 Sun Nov 5 05:22:55 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
536 fixed a bag full of subtle bugs of immensive screw-up potential in
537 handlers_find(), luckily no one found out about them yet ;)
538 fixed signal_handlers_foreach_matched_R() so it operates on an
539 initial handler list snapshot provided by handlers_find() to work
540 around general reentrancy problems and to avoid multiple callback()
541 invocations on the same handlers.
542 this code is now officially 80% bug free (10% remaining for interface
543 types, and 10% remaining for destroyed signals ;)
545 Sat Nov 4 02:01:33 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
547 * gsignal.c (_g_signals_destroy): valid signal nodes start out at 1.
549 * gtypeplugin.[hc]: new files holding a GTypePlugin interface
550 implementation that provides the API required by GType to deal with
551 dynamically loadable types.
553 * gtype.[hc]: displace any GTypePlugin business to gtypeplugin.h.
555 Fri Nov 3 07:35:00 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
557 * gsignal.[hc]: prefix internal functions with '_'. renamed
558 g_signal_connect_closure() to g_signal_connect_closure_by_id().
559 added g_signal_parse_name() to retrive signal_id and detail quark
560 from a signal name (internal).
562 Wed Nov 1 03:36:54 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
564 * gobject.c (g_object_base_class_finalize): destroy all signals that
565 the finalized obejct type introduced.
567 * gsignal.c (g_signals_destroy): don't require itype to have
570 * gobject.c (g_object_do_finalize): make sure all signal handlers
574 (g_signal_handler_find): only match on non-0 masks.
575 (g_signal_handlers_block_matched):
576 (g_signal_handlers_unblock_matched):
577 (g_signal_handlers_disconnect_matched): new functions to block/unblock
578 or disconnect handlers in groups.
580 2000-10-30 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
582 * gvalue.c (exchange_entries_equal), gparam.c (param_spec_equals):
583 made both functions return gboolean just for the little extra
584 standard conformance now that GEqualFunc is introduced.
586 Mon Oct 30 05:52:45 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
588 * gsignal.c (g_signal_list_ids): get rid of inline documentation owen
589 added, the doc system would ignore it anyways (for some reason not
592 Mon Oct 30 03:00:07 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
594 * gsignal.[hc] (g_signal_list_ids): renamed owen's g_type_signals(),
595 added required mutex locks.
597 Sun Oct 29 02:31:03 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
599 * gsignal.c (g_type_signals): Fix problem where signals
600 with "_" in them appeared twice in the result array.
602 Sun Oct 29 01:58:44 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
604 * gsignal.h: Add g_type_signals() - a function to list
605 all signals for a given type.
607 Sat Oct 28 00:28:09 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
609 * gclosure.c (g_closure_add_marshal_guards): fixed notifier position
610 for post_marshal guard which was off at 0.
612 Fri Oct 27 21:49:31 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
614 * gobject.[hc]: doh, fix argument order in for
615 g_cclosure_new_object_swap and g_cclosure_new_object.
617 2000-10-28 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
619 * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in: Make glib-genmarshal.exe.
621 * glib-genmarshal.c: Conditionalise include of unistd.h.
622 Include <io.h> on Win32.
624 * gobject.def: Add some missing entry points.
626 Fri Oct 27 16:33:41 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
628 * gsignal.[hc]: publically define GSignalInvocationHint structure
629 that gets passed in to closure invocations. added signal details.
630 renamed GSignalType to GSignalFlags to comply with conventions.
631 quite some cleanups and minor fixes. avoid uneccessary handler list
632 walks upon invokation of after handlers. relookup handler list for
633 restarted emissions. preliminary abort normal handler invokation if
634 after handler is encountered.
637 * gclosure.[hc]: moved invocation_hint to the end of the
638 g_closure_invoke() arguments as sugegsted by kenelson.
639 also made it a gpointer to be more generic. the invocation_hint
640 is a caller specific thing that can be used to pass additional
641 data in to closure invocations as documented with the caller
642 invoking the closure.
644 Fri Oct 27 05:35:14 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
646 * gobject.c (g_object_watch_closure): fixed realloc bug, reported
649 * gsignal.c (g_signal_newv): fixed deadlock scenarion where
650 g_signal_lookup() would be called with the signal lock being
651 held. reported by james henstridge.
653 * gclosure.c (g_closure_set_meta_marshal): fixed memcpy/overwrite bug
656 2000-10-26 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
658 * gbsearcharray.c (bsearch_array_insert): Fix gccisms (pointer
659 arithmetic on void pointer, label without statement following.
661 * gtype.c (type_node_fundamental_info): Don't apply unary minus to
662 result of sizeof operator, it can be unsigned. Cast first to
665 * gobject.def: Add new functions.
667 * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in: Add new objects.
669 2000-10-26 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
671 * Makefile.am: Remove empty SUBDIRS line _again_, as that _still_
672 prevents 'make dist' from working.
674 Wed Oct 25 19:11:03 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
676 * gbsearcharray.h (g_bsearch_array_get_nth): Don't use implicit
677 casts from void * since this will get included from C++ too
680 Thu Oct 26 00:30:27 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
682 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: added g_value_set_static_string().
684 * gboxed.[hc]: const corrections. added g_value_set_static_boxed().
686 Wed Oct 25 20:27:02 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
688 * gtype.c (g_type_free_instance): for the moment, freeing object
689 structures will fill their memory portion with 0xAA. there's a
690 FIXME there, remove this line at a later point.
692 Tue Oct 24 23:10:26 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
695 * glib-genmarshal.c: added publically installed marshaller generator.
697 * gtype.h: added G_TYPE_INSTANCE_GET_INTERFACE() to retrive a certain
698 interface VTable from instances.
700 Mon Oct 23 08:28:15 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
702 * gobject.[hc]: new functions for closure maintenance:
703 (g_object_watch_closure): maintain validity of the object and
704 the closure for objects that are used as data part of a closure.
705 (g_cclosure_new_object): convenience function to create C closures
706 that have an object as data argument.
707 (g_closure_new_object): convenience function to create closures
708 that have an object as data argument.
710 * gclosure.[hc]: implementation of GClosure mechanism.
711 a closure is basically an encapsulation of a callback function
712 and its environment. ideally, most places supporting callback
713 functions will simply take a GClosure* pointer and thus unify
714 callback environments wrg destroy notification etc.
715 GClosure provides destroy notifiers for arbitrary data pointers,
716 reference counting, invalidation notification (it can be invalidated
717 which is merely a deactivate state) and a marshallinbg abstraction.
718 GCClosure is also provided in these files, they present a specialized
719 GClosure implementation for C language callbacks.
721 * genum.c: macro cleanups.
723 * gboxed.[hc]: new files, for boxed type abstraction.
724 (g_boxed_copy): copy a boxed structure
725 (g_boxed_free): free a boxed structure
727 (g_value_get_boxed): standard GValue functions for boxed types
728 (g_boxed_type_register_static): convenience function for easy
729 introduction of new G_TYPE_BOXED derivatives.
731 * gparam.[hc]: introduced g_param_type_register_static(), a short hand
732 for creation of new GParamSpec derived types.
734 * gtype.[hc]: many fixes, introduced ability to flag individual
735 type nodes as ABSTRACT upon registration, added value_peek_pointer()
736 to the value table to peek at GValue contents as a pointer for types
737 that support this. fixed up GValue checks.
739 * gvalue.[hc]: added g_value_fits_pointer() and g_value_get_as_pointer()
740 to peek at the value contents as pointer.
742 * *.[hc]: adaptions to type macro fixes and changes in the type
745 * many const corrections over the place.
747 Sat Oct 21 02:49:56 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
749 * gtype.c (g_type_conforms_to): this function basically behaves like
750 and is_a check, except that it _additionally_ features interfaces
751 for instantiatable types. enforce this in the second branch as well
752 (`type' conforms_to `type') even if `type' is not an interface type.
754 Fri Oct 20 15:31:04 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
756 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: added G_TYPE_POINTER implementation from jrb.
760 * gvaluetypes.c: added GTypeValueTable.value_peek_pointer and
761 suitable implementations of this for G_TYPE_STRING, G_TYPE_OBJECT
764 Mon Aug 21 04:13:37 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
766 * gbsearcharray.[hc]: long standing needed generic implementation
767 of a binary searchable, sorted and dynamically sized array.
769 2000-10-15 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
771 * Makefile.am (BUILT_EXTRA_DIST): New variable.
772 (dist-hook): Handle $(BUILT_EXTRA_DIST).
773 (*): Remove traces of @STRIP_{BEGIN,END}@.
775 2000-09-29 Martin Baulig <baulig@suse.de>
777 Several minor ANSI C fixes.
780 * gtype.c (type_class_init):
781 `(gpointer) bnode->data->class.class_init_base'
782 in call to g_slist_prepend() and
783 'GBaseInitFunc class_init_base = (GBaseInitFunc) slist->data'.
785 * gobject.c: Put text following #endif into comments.
787 2000-09-25 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
789 * Makefile.am: Remove empty SUBDIRS line, as that prevents make
792 Sat Sep 9 20:04:13 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
794 * gobject.c (g_object_last_unref): Move call to
795 g_type_free_instance() here from g_object_do_finalize,
796 since g_type_free_instance() can unload the object's
799 2000-07-27 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
801 * gobject.c: No, don't mark glib_debug_objects for export here,
802 it's handled specially in gtktypeutils.c.
804 * gobject.def: Export g_type_fundamental_last (the function).
806 2000-07-26 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
809 * gobject.c: Mark glib_debug_objects for export/import as it is
812 Sun Jul 23 17:23:35 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
814 * gtype.[hc]: make g_type_fundamental_last() a function, avoiding all
815 that extern variable clutter and avoiding further problems with thread
818 2000-07-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
823 * gtype.c: Shut up Sun's picky compiler.
825 2000-07-14 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
827 * gobject.def: Add g_type_get_plugin.
829 Thu Jul 13 02:07:54 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
831 * gparam.c (g_param_value_defaults): default initialize the temporary
832 default value, instead of nuking the caller's value contents.
834 2000-07-11 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
836 * gtype.c (g_type_get_plugin): Don't return just 0 or 1.
838 Tue Jul 11 02:48:13 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
840 * gtype.[hc]: removed g_type_is_dynamic() and added g_type_get_plugin().
842 2000-07-10 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
844 * gobject-query.c: Include ../config.h for HAVE_UNISTD_H. Use it
845 to guard inclusion of <unistd.h>.
847 * gtype.h: Fix copy-paste errors in the ifdefs on how to declare a
848 variable for export. Call the macro GOBJECT_VAR.
850 * gtype.c: Declare _g_type_fundamental_last for export here, too.
851 (type_node_any_new): Use only constant expressions for sizeof
852 operator (for instance MSVC requires this).
854 * makefile.mingw.in: Define GOBJECT_COMPILATION.
856 Sun Jul 9 21:21:46 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
858 * genums.c: Move string.h include into the .c file
859 instead of where it was in the .h file by mistake.
861 Thu Jul 6 15:30:27 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
863 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): dist fixes.
865 * gobject.c: Add a global variable glib_debug_objects
866 (not in header file) to control object tracing.
868 2000-07-01 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
870 * gobject.def: Update added and renamed entry points.
872 * makefile.mingw.in: Add gvaluetypes.o.
874 Thu Jun 29 16:02:07 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
876 * gobject.c:include string.h for memset
877 * genums.h: include string.h for strcpy
878 * gvalue.c: include string.h for memset, memcpy.
880 Sat Jun 24 23:03:04 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
882 * gtype.[hc]: provide G_TYPE_CHAR, G_TYPE_UCHAR, G_TYPE_BOOLEAN,
883 G_TYPE_INT, G_TYPE_UINT, G_TYPE_LONG, G_TYPE_ULONG, G_TYPE_FLOAT,
884 G_TYPE_DOUBLE and G_TYPE_STRING fundamental types.
885 added a GTypeValueTable* pointer to GTypeInfo structure for types
886 to implement GValue handling functions.
887 GTypeValueTable contains the following members:
888 value_init(): initialize a GValue structure.
889 value_free(): free GValue structure contents (optional).
890 value_copy(): copy one GValue contents to another GValue structure of
891 collect_type: varargs collection type for the first variable argument
892 to be collected by collect_value().
893 collect_value(): variable arguments collection function (optional).
894 lcopy_type: varargs collection type for the first variable argument
895 to be location copyied by lcopy_value().
896 lcopy_value(): variable arguments location copy function (optional).
897 g_type_value_table_peek(): new function to retrive the GTypeValueTable*
898 for a type node. ValueTables get inherited from parent types, unless
899 overridden through the GTypeInfo structure. internally, GTypeValueTable
900 support means an added overhead of one pointer per static or used
902 g_type_add_class_cache_func(): provide a cache_func/data pair to be
903 called prior to a type nodes last_unref() function, this can be used
904 to prevent premature class destruction. multiple installed cache_func()
905 will be chained upon last_unref() untill one of them returns TRUE.
906 the cache_func()s have to check the class id passed in to figure whether
907 they actually want to cache the class of this type (since all classes
908 are routed through the cache_func() chain).
909 g_type_remove_class_cache_func(): remove a previously installed
910 cache_func/data pair. the cache maintained by this function has to be
911 clear when calling g_type_remove_class_cache_func() to avoid leaks.
912 g_type_class_unref_uncached(): class unref function for cache_func()
913 implementations, unreferences a class omitting the cache chain (and
914 therefore unref->cache->unref->... loops).
916 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: provide the value setters/getters for the primitive
917 fundamental types boolean, char, uchar, int, uint, long, ulong, float,
920 * gvalue.[hc]: provide G_TYPE_IS_VALUE() in terms of whether a
921 GTypeValueTable is provided for this type.
922 removed g_value_init_default(), g_value_validate(), g_value_defaults(),
923 g_value_set_default() and g_values_cmp() as these are supplied by the
925 moved g_values_exchange() into the "implementation details" section,
926 since it just provides the underlying functionality for
929 * gvaluecollector.h: renamed the varargs value container from
930 GParamCValue to GTypeCValue as the value collection methods are
931 supplied by the type system now.
932 G_PARAM_COLLECT_VALUE() and G_PARAM_LCOPY_VALUE() got renamed to
933 G_VALUE_COLLECT() and G_VALUE_LCOPY() and operate without a
934 GParamSpec structure now.
936 * genums.h: macros cleanups/fixes.
938 * genum.c: provide G_TYPE_ENUM and G_TYPE_FLAGS type
939 and assorted g_value_{s|g}et_{enum|flags}() implementations.
942 provide G_IS_VALUE_OBJECT(), G_TYPE_OBJECT ValueTable methods
943 and g_value_{s|g}et_object().
945 * gparam.[hc]: reduced class to value_set_default(),
946 value_validate() and values_cmp(). also parameters now need to fill
947 in a GType value_type; field to indicate the GValue type they
948 are handling. provide g_param_value_set_default(),
949 g_param_value_defaults(), g_param_value_validate() and
950 g_param_values_cmp().
952 * gparamspecs.[hc]: got rid of the g_value_* functions and
953 the G_IS_VALUE_* macros. adapted param spec implementations
954 according to the GParamSpecClass changes.
956 Sat Jun 10 08:38:27 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
958 * gtype.c (type_class_init): fetch the nth iface entry of the
959 type node in the nth loop iteration, not alwys the first.
960 bug discovered by Walt Pohl <cher@suitware.com>.
961 (type_data_finalize_class_ifaces): same here, cut and paste
964 Wed Jun 7 09:21:05 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
966 * Makefile.am (INCLUDES): Add top_builddir so glibconfig.h
967 is found properly when build srcdir != builddir. (Patch from
970 2000-05-13 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
974 * gobject.rc.in: New files, for Win32 (mingw) build.
976 * Makefile.am: Add to EXTRA_DIST. Add rules to produce the
977 corresponding non-*.in files.
979 * gtype.h: (Win32:) Mark _g_type_fundamental_last for
980 export/import from DLL.
982 Fri May 5 01:15:48 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
984 * gtype.h: add reserved fundamental ids for gtk types (for transition
985 time). added G_TYPE_FUNDAMENTAL_MAX for gtk.
987 Mon Apr 17 20:45:50 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
989 * glib-gobject.c (g_object_base_class_finalize): oops, don't unset
990 n_params prior to destructing them.
992 Tue Apr 11 04:28:10 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
994 * fixed a couple of bugs in the initial parameter/object
995 implementations, after getting beast running on GObject and GValue.
997 Fri Apr 7 04:27:49 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
999 * glib-gobject.[hc]: completed parameter set/get implementations,
1000 along with asyncronous parameter changed notification queue.
1002 Sun Apr 2 04:54:36 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1004 * glib-gobject.[hc]: GObject implementation, that is facilities
1005 for setting/getting quarked data and reference counting.
1007 * glib-gparamspecs.[hc]: first actuall parameter implementations
1008 for GLib, so far we have: char, uchar, bool, int, uint, long,
1009 ulong, enum, flags, float, double, string and object. each of these
1010 GParamSpecs is a new instantiatable type in its own respect,
1011 so the .c file derives 13 new types from G_TYPE_PARAM and
1012 defines over 50 (*2) conversion facilities.
1014 * glib-gvaluecollector.h: generic varargs handling stubs for
1015 GParamSpecs, private header file (does get installed for
1016 inclusion into user code though).
1018 * glib-gvalue.[hc]: GValue functionality implementation.
1020 * glib-gparam.[hc]: basis GParamSpec implementation for
1021 the virtual base type G_TYPE_PARAM.
1023 * glib-genums.[hc]: enum/flags type implementation, based on
1026 * glib-gtype.[hc]: GLib Type System implementation, heavily
1027 based on BSE's dynamic type system.
