5 (g_closure_sink): make closure sinking explicit.
8 (g_signal_connect_data):
9 (g_signal_connect_closure):
10 (g_signal_connect_closure_by_id):

13 Thu Feb 8 00:31:45 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
15 * gtype.h: added G_TYPE_DEBUG_NONE for/from Eric Lemings ;)
17 2001-02-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
19 * gobject.def: Remove glib_debug_objects.
21 Sun Feb 4 07:30:53 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
23 * gtype.[hc]: changed g_type_init() to take debugging flags
24 initially, a combination of G_TYPE_DEBUG_OBJECTS and
25 G_TYPE_DEBUG_SIGNALS. using the G_TYPE_ prefix is a bit odd
26 here, but basically g_type_int() serves as initialization
27 fucntion for all of GType, GObject, GSignal, so what the heck.
29 * gobject.c: special case debugging code properly.
30 changed glib_trap_object_ref to g_trap_object_ref.
32 * gsignal.c: add signal emission debugging abilities, along with
33 a new trap object g_trap_instance_signals.
35 2001-02-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
37 * Makefile.am (progs_LDADD): Change order of libs to libgobject
38 first, then libglib. Needed for cygwin, says jbdoll@kepri.re.kr.
40 Wed Jan 31 06:19:49 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
42 * gparam.h: gtk-doc sucks for not dealing with #define inside enums.
44 * gtype.[hc]: added G_TYPE_FLAG_RESERVED_ID_BIT, a bit in the type
45 number that's supposed to be left untouched (preserved mainly
48 * *.c: added thread safety code, based on an old patch from sebastian.
49 the remaining thread safety issues are now datalists on pspecs (to be
50 solved im gdataset.c) and gvalue.c where locking concerns value exchange
51 functionality only, and that's soon to be revised.
53 2001-01-27 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
55 * makefile.msc.in: Don't try to compile gmarshal.c on its own.
57 2001-01-24 <alexl@redhat.com>
59 * gclosure.c (g_closure_unref):
60 Don't leak closure->notifiers.
62 2001-01-05 Havoc Pennington <hp@redhat.com>
64 * gparamspecs.c (g_param_spec_enum): set the value_type in the
65 param spec; closes bug 40210
66 (g_param_spec_flags): ditto for flags
68 2001-01-03 Alexander Larsson <alexl@redhat.com>
71 Move glib_debug_objects out of the G_ENABLE_DEBUG #ifdef.
73 Thu Dec 28 11:36:44 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
75 * gbsearcharray.c (upper_power2): disable G_BSEARCH_ALIGN_POWER2
76 fucntionality if DISABLE_MEM_POOLS is defined.
78 * gtype.c: honour DISABLE_MEM_POOLS.
80 * gsignal.c (g_signal_init): flag signal key bsearch array with
81 G_BSEARCH_ALIGN_POWER2 to avoid excessive growth time. honour
84 * gparam.h: added G_PARAM_READWRITE alias for (G_PARAM_READABLE |
87 2000-12-15 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
89 * gobject.def: Update.
91 2000-12-15 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>
93 * gobject.c (g_object_do_class_init): use g_signal_newc
95 * gsignal.c (g_signal_newc): convenience function for signals
97 (g_signal_new_valist): added
98 (g_signal_new): removed
100 Fri Dec 15 04:40:23 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
102 * gparam.[hc]: add an instance member value_type so the default
103 value of the pspec class can be overridden.
105 2000-12-14 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
107 * makefile.mingw.in: Update, include parts from Makefile.am to
108 build gmarshal.[ch]. Some day, we won't need these separate
109 makefiles for Win32 compilation. I hope.
111 * makefile.msc.in: Update. No use trying to build gmarshal.[ch]
112 here, it would require Unixish tools. MSVC users building from CVS
113 sources are out of luck.
115 * gobject.def: Update.
117 Wed Dec 13 09:31:26 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
119 * gparamspecs.[hc]: add G_TYPE_PARAM_BOXED implementation.

125 * Makefile.am: _never_ touch oldest-source-stamp.
127 * gobject.[hc]: construct property handling fixes/improvements.
128 fixed trailer handling in get/set property.
130 * gparam.[hc]: implement param spec pool, got rid of param spec
131 hashtable. the most prominent change is that e deal with type
134 2000-12-12 Elliot Lee <sopwith@redhat.com>
137 . You have to 'touch oldest-source-stamp' if you want to avoid having
138 the Makefile constantly rebuild itself.
139 . Fix marshaller generation rules to work with srcdir != builddir
140 (there were issues with trying to run "./glib-genmarshal", etc.)
142 Mon Dec 11 04:44:11 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
144 * gboxed.c: fixed dealing with collection/lcopy of NULL values.
146 * gclosure.h: removed insane ramblings, added G_CALLBACK() a casting
149 * Makefile.am: cleanups, marshaller generation rules.
151 * gmarshal.[hc]: new files with GRuntime standard marshallers.
153 * glib-genmarshal.c: fix log domain, support gruntime standard
154 marshallers, suport G_TYPE_PARAM, come with extern "C" and
157 * glib-genmarshal.1: reflect glib-genmarshal.c updates.
159 * gobject.[hc]: implement object constructor. rework parameter
160 changed notification queueing, we support queue freezes now and
161 don't dispatch from an idle handler anymore.
162 parameter->property rename hassle.
163 implemented ::properties_changed and ::notify::* signals for
164 property change notification (the later supports property names
165 as details). added signal connection and named data properties.
166 (g_signal_connect_object): new function to setup while_alive
168 (g_object_class_install_property): sink properties now, since they
169 are initially floating.
170 (g_object_steal_data):
171 (g_object_set_data_full):
173 (g_object_get_data): set/get data by using g_datalist_*() functions
175 (g_object_queue_param_changed): nuked.
176 (g_object_freeze_notify): start queueing of property changes (freeze/
178 (g_object_notify): announce changes of a certain property directly.
179 (g_object_thaw_notify): process queue of property changes, therefore
180 emitting GObject::notify::detail with detail being the changed
182 (G_OBJECT_WARN_INVALID_PROPERTY_ID): saner macro variant of former
183 G_WARN_INVALID_PARAM_ID().
185 * gparam.[hc]: param specs are now initially floating and need to be
186 sunken with g_param_spec_sink(), support G_TYPE_PARAM values.
187 added G_PARAM_CONSTRUCT and G_PARAM_CONSTRUCT_ONLY parameter flags,
188 required by GObjectClass.constructor().
190 * gparamspecs.[hc]: added GParamSpecParam, GParamSpecPointer and
191 GParamSpecCCallback, param specs for G_TYPE_PARAM, G_TYPE_POINTER
192 and G_TYPE_CCALLBACK respectively.
194 * gsignal.[hc]: cleanups.
195 (signal_id_lookup): after walking the anchestry, try interfaces as well.
196 (g_signal_new): new function to create signals from varargs type list.
197 (g_signal_connect_closure): closure connection variant that works from
199 (g_signal_connect_data): c handler connection variant that works from
201 (g_signal_emit_valist): emit signal for an instance with paraneters
202 collected from a va_list.
203 (g_signal_emit): emit signal, taking parameters from varargs list.
204 (g_signal_emit_by_name): same as g_signal_emit, working from
206 (signal_emit_R): return whether return_value needs to be altered.
208 * gtype.[hc]: set log-domain to GRuntime, i'm slowly getting to all
209 the points that need to reflect the upcoming rename.
210 melt g_type_conforms_to() functionality into g_type_is_a(), as that
211 is what we really want (liskov substitution principle).
212 assorted changes to other files due to conforms_to->is_a.
214 * gvalue.[hc]: implemented g_value_set_instance() that sets a value
215 from an instantiatable type via the value_table's collect_value()
216 function (based on an idea from James Henstridge <james@daa.com.au>).
219 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: implement G_TYPE_CCALLBACK and G_TYPE_PARAM.
221 Wed Nov 29 13:30:05 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
223 * gsignal.c (handlers_find): fix elliots "logic fix" that dereferences
224 NULL nodes if C handlers are searched for specific signals.
226 2000-11-28 Elliot Lee <sopwith@redhat.com>
228 * gsignal.c: Fix warnings about possible use of uninitialized
229 variables, and fix logic that would leave 'node' unset in cases
230 that it might be used in.
232 * glib-genmarshal.c: Fix warning about printf format.
234 2000-11-28 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>

247 (g_object_steal_data): More convenient data-setting functions
249 Wed Nov 15 20:58:05 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
251 * gtypemodule.c (g_type_module_use): If loading the
252 module fails, don't increment the use count.
254 Thu Nov 9 01:49:43 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
256 * gobject.h (G_WARN_INVALID_PARAM_ID): doh,
257 s/BSE_OBJECT_TYPE_NAME/G_OBJECT_TYPE_NAME/; reported by Maas-Maarten
258 Zeeman <maas@wanadoo.nl>.
260 Mon Nov 13 00:48:39 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
262 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add glib-genmarshal.1

274 * Makefile.am gtypemodule.[ch]: New basic implementation of
275 GTypePlugin interface as a GObject. Dynamically loaded modules can
276 register any number of types and interface on the module.
278 Sun Nov 5 10:25:40 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
280 * gsignal.c (handlers_find): When appending handlers and
281 not matching on signal_id, use hlist->signal_id instead of
282 signal_id. Having the correct signal_id when unreffing
283 the handlers makes things work a lot better.
285 2000-11-05 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
287 * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in (gobject_OBJECTS): Add gtypeplugin.
289 * gobject.def: Update.
291 Sun Nov 5 05:22:55 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
294 fixed a bag full of subtle bugs of immensive screw-up potential in
295 handlers_find(), luckily no one found out about them yet ;)
296 fixed signal_handlers_foreach_matched_R() so it operates on an
297 initial handler list snapshot provided by handlers_find() to work
298 around general reentrancy problems and to avoid multiple callback()
299 invocations on the same handlers.
300 this code is now officially 80% bug free (10% remaining for interface
301 types, and 10% remaining for destroyed signals ;)
303 Sat Nov 4 02:01:33 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
305 * gsignal.c (_g_signals_destroy): valid signal nodes start out at 1.
307 * gtypeplugin.[hc]: new files holding a GTypePlugin interface
308 implementation that provides the API required by GType to deal with
309 dynamically loadable types.
311 * gtype.[hc]: displace any GTypePlugin business to gtypeplugin.h.
313 Fri Nov 3 07:35:00 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
315 * gsignal.[hc]: prefix internal functions with '_'. renamed
316 g_signal_connect_closure() to g_signal_connect_closure_by_id().
317 added g_signal_parse_name() to retrive signal_id and detail quark
318 from a signal name (internal).
320 Wed Nov 1 03:36:54 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
322 * gobject.c (g_object_base_class_finalize): destroy all signals that
323 the finalized obejct type introduced.
325 * gsignal.c (g_signals_destroy): don't require itype to have
328 * gobject.c (g_object_do_finalize): make sure all signal handlers
332 (g_signal_handler_find): only match on non-0 masks.
333 (g_signal_handlers_block_matched):
334 (g_signal_handlers_unblock_matched):
335 (g_signal_handlers_disconnect_matched): new functions to block/unblock
336 or disconnect handlers in groups.
338 2000-10-30 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
340 * gvalue.c (exchange_entries_equal), gparam.c (param_spec_equals):
341 made both functions return gboolean just for the little extra
342 standard conformance now that GEqualFunc is introduced.
344 Mon Oct 30 05:52:45 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
346 * gsignal.c (g_signal_list_ids): get rid of inline documentation owen
347 added, the doc system would ignore it anyways (for some reason not
350 Mon Oct 30 03:00:07 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
352 * gsignal.[hc] (g_signal_list_ids): renamed owen's g_type_signals(),
353 added required mutex locks.
355 Sun Oct 29 02:31:03 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
357 * gsignal.c (g_type_signals): Fix problem where signals
358 with "_" in them appeared twice in the result array.
360 Sun Oct 29 01:58:44 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>

370 Fri Oct 27 21:49:31 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
372 * gobject.[hc]: doh, fix argument order in for
373 g_cclosure_new_object_swap and g_cclosure_new_object.
375 2000-10-28 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
377 * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in: Make glib-genmarshal.exe.
379 * glib-genmarshal.c: Conditionalise include of unistd.h.
380 Include <io.h> on Win32.

384 Fri Oct 27 16:33:41 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
386 * gsignal.[hc]: publically define GSignalInvocationHint structure
387 that gets passed in to closure invocations. added signal details.
388 renamed GSignalType to GSignalFlags to comply with conventions.
389 quite some cleanups and minor fixes. avoid uneccessary handler list
390 walks upon invokation of after handlers. relookup handler list for
391 restarted emissions. preliminary abort normal handler invokation if
392 after handler is encountered.
395 * gclosure.[hc]: moved invocation_hint to the end of the
396 g_closure_invoke() arguments as sugegsted by kenelson.
397 also made it a gpointer to be more generic. the invocation_hint
398 is a caller specific thing that can be used to pass additional
399 data in to closure invocations as documented with the caller
400 invoking the closure.
402 Fri Oct 27 05:35:14 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
404 * gobject.c (g_object_watch_closure): fixed realloc bug, reported
407 * gsignal.c (g_signal_newv): fixed deadlock scenarion where
408 g_signal_lookup() would be called with the signal lock being
409 held. reported by james henstridge.
411 * gclosure.c (g_closure_set_meta_marshal): fixed memcpy/overwrite bug
414 2000-10-26 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
416 * gbsearcharray.c (bsearch_array_insert): Fix gccisms (pointer
417 arithmetic on void pointer, label without statement following.
419 * gtype.c (type_node_fundamental_info): Don't apply unary minus to
420 result of sizeof operator, it can be unsigned. Cast first to
423 * gobject.def: Add new functions.
425 * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in: Add new objects.
427 2000-10-26 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
429 * Makefile.am: Remove empty SUBDIRS line _again_, as that _still_
430 prevents 'make dist' from working.
432 Wed Oct 25 19:11:03 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
434 * gbsearcharray.h (g_bsearch_array_get_nth): Don't use implicit
435 casts from void * since this will get included from C++ too
438 Thu Oct 26 00:30:27 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
440 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: added g_value_set_static_string().
442 * gboxed.[hc]: const corrections. added g_value_set_static_boxed().
444 Wed Oct 25 20:27:02 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
446 * gtype.c (g_type_free_instance): for the moment, freeing object
447 structures will fill their memory portion with 0xAA. there's a
448 FIXME there, remove this line at a later point.
450 Tue Oct 24 23:10:26 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
453 * glib-genmarshal.c: added publically installed marshaller generator.
455 * gtype.h: added G_TYPE_INSTANCE_GET_INTERFACE() to retrive a certain
456 interface VTable from instances.
458 Mon Oct 23 08:28:15 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
460 * gobject.[hc]: new functions for closure maintenance:
461 (g_object_watch_closure): maintain validity of the object and
462 the closure for objects that are used as data part of a closure.
463 (g_cclosure_new_object): convenience function to create C closures
464 that have an object as data argument.
465 (g_closure_new_object): convenience function to create closures
466 that have an object as data argument.
468 * gclosure.[hc]: implementation of GClosure mechanism.
469 a closure is basically an encapsulation of a callback function
470 and its environment. ideally, most places supporting callback
471 functions will simply take a GClosure* pointer and thus unify
472 callback environments wrg destroy notification etc.
473 GClosure provides destroy notifiers for arbitrary data pointers,
474 reference counting, invalidation notification (it can be invalidated
475 which is merely a deactivate state) and a marshallinbg abstraction.
476 GCClosure is also provided in these files, they present a specialized
477 GClosure implementation for C language callbacks.
479 * genum.c: macro cleanups.
481 * gboxed.[hc]: new files, for boxed type abstraction.
482 (g_boxed_copy): copy a boxed structure
483 (g_boxed_free): free a boxed structure
485 (g_value_get_boxed): standard GValue functions for boxed types
486 (g_boxed_type_register_static): convenience function for easy
487 introduction of new G_TYPE_BOXED derivatives.
489 * gparam.[hc]: introduced g_param_type_register_static(), a short hand
490 for creation of new GParamSpec derived types.
492 * gtype.[hc]: many fixes, introduced ability to flag individual
493 type nodes as ABSTRACT upon registration, added value_peek_pointer()
494 to the value table to peek at GValue contents as a pointer for types
495 that support this. fixed up GValue checks.
497 * gvalue.[hc]: added g_value_fits_pointer() and g_value_get_as_pointer()
498 to peek at the value contents as pointer.
500 * *.[hc]: adaptions to type macro fixes and changes in the type
503 * many const corrections over the place.
505 Sat Oct 21 02:49:56 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
507 * gtype.c (g_type_conforms_to): this function basically behaves like
508 and is_a check, except that it _additionally_ features interfaces
509 for instantiatable types. enforce this in the second branch as well
510 (`type' conforms_to `type') even if `type' is not an interface type.
512 Fri Oct 20 15:31:04 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
514 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: added G_TYPE_POINTER implementation from jrb.
518 * gvaluetypes.c: added GTypeValueTable.value_peek_pointer and
519 suitable implementations of this for G_TYPE_STRING, G_TYPE_OBJECT
522 Mon Aug 21 04:13:37 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
524 * gbsearcharray.[hc]: long standing needed generic implementation
525 of a binary searchable, sorted and dynamically sized array.
527 2000-10-15 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
529 * Makefile.am (BUILT_EXTRA_DIST): New variable.
530 (dist-hook): Handle $(BUILT_EXTRA_DIST).
531 (*): Remove traces of @STRIP_{BEGIN,END}@.
533 2000-09-29 Martin Baulig <baulig@suse.de>
535 Several minor ANSI C fixes.
538 * gtype.c (type_class_init):
539 `(gpointer) bnode->data->class.class_init_base'
540 in call to g_slist_prepend() and
541 'GBaseInitFunc class_init_base = (GBaseInitFunc) slist->data'.
543 * gobject.c: Put text following #endif into comments.
545 2000-09-25 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
547 * Makefile.am: Remove empty SUBDIRS line, as that prevents make
550 Sat Sep 9 20:04:13 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
552 * gobject.c (g_object_last_unref): Move call to
553 g_type_free_instance() here from g_object_do_finalize,
554 since g_type_free_instance() can unload the object's
557 2000-07-27 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
559 * gobject.c: No, don't mark glib_debug_objects for export here,
560 it's handled specially in gtktypeutils.c.
562 * gobject.def: Export g_type_fundamental_last (the function).
564 2000-07-26 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
567 * gobject.c: Mark glib_debug_objects for export/import as it is
570 Sun Jul 23 17:23:35 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
572 * gtype.[hc]: make g_type_fundamental_last() a function, avoiding all
573 that extern variable clutter and avoiding further problems with thread
576 2000-07-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
581 * gtype.c: Shut up Sun's picky compiler.
583 2000-07-14 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
585 * gobject.def: Add g_type_get_plugin.
587 Thu Jul 13 02:07:54 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
589 * gparam.c (g_param_value_defaults): default initialize the temporary
590 default value, instead of nuking the caller's value contents.
592 2000-07-11 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
594 * gtype.c (g_type_get_plugin): Don't return just 0 or 1.
596 Tue Jul 11 02:48:13 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
598 * gtype.[hc]: removed g_type_is_dynamic() and added g_type_get_plugin().
600 2000-07-10 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
602 * gobject-query.c: Include ../config.h for HAVE_UNISTD_H. Use it
603 to guard inclusion of <unistd.h>.
605 * gtype.h: Fix copy-paste errors in the ifdefs on how to declare a
606 variable for export. Call the macro GOBJECT_VAR.
608 * gtype.c: Declare _g_type_fundamental_last for export here, too.
609 (type_node_any_new): Use only constant expressions for sizeof
610 operator (for instance MSVC requires this).
612 * makefile.mingw.in: Define GOBJECT_COMPILATION.
614 Sun Jul 9 21:21:46 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
616 * genums.c: Move string.h include into the .c file
617 instead of where it was in the .h file by mistake.
619 Thu Jul 6 15:30:27 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
621 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): dist fixes.
623 * gobject.c: Add a global variable glib_debug_objects
624 (not in header file) to control object tracing.
626 2000-07-01 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
628 * gobject.def: Update added and renamed entry points.
630 * makefile.mingw.in: Add gvaluetypes.o.
632 Thu Jun 29 16:02:07 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
634 * gobject.c:include string.h for memset
635 * genums.h: include string.h for strcpy
636 * gvalue.c: include string.h for memset, memcpy.
638 Sat Jun 24 23:03:04 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
640 * gtype.[hc]: provide G_TYPE_CHAR, G_TYPE_UCHAR, G_TYPE_BOOLEAN,
641 G_TYPE_INT, G_TYPE_UINT, G_TYPE_LONG, G_TYPE_ULONG, G_TYPE_FLOAT,
642 G_TYPE_DOUBLE and G_TYPE_STRING fundamental types.
643 added a GTypeValueTable* pointer to GTypeInfo structure for types
644 to implement GValue handling functions.
645 GTypeValueTable contains the following members:
646 value_init(): initialize a GValue structure.
647 value_free(): free GValue structure contents (optional).
648 value_copy(): copy one GValue contents to another GValue structure of
649 collect_type: varargs collection type for the first variable argument
650 to be collected by collect_value().
651 collect_value(): variable arguments collection function (optional).
652 lcopy_type: varargs collection type for the first variable argument
653 to be location copyied by lcopy_value().
654 lcopy_value(): variable arguments location copy function (optional).
655 g_type_value_table_peek(): new function to retrive the GTypeValueTable*
656 for a type node. ValueTables get inherited from parent types, unless
657 overridden through the GTypeInfo structure. internally, GTypeValueTable
658 support means an added overhead of one pointer per static or used
660 g_type_add_class_cache_func(): provide a cache_func/data pair to be
661 called prior to a type nodes last_unref() function, this can be used
662 to prevent premature class destruction. multiple installed cache_func()
663 will be chained upon last_unref() untill one of them returns TRUE.
664 the cache_func()s have to check the class id passed in to figure whether
665 they actually want to cache the class of this type (since all classes
666 are routed through the cache_func() chain).
667 g_type_remove_class_cache_func(): remove a previously installed
668 cache_func/data pair. the cache maintained by this function has to be
669 clear when calling g_type_remove_class_cache_func() to avoid leaks.
670 g_type_class_unref_uncached(): class unref function for cache_func()
671 implementations, unreferences a class omitting the cache chain (and
672 therefore unref->cache->unref->... loops).
674 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: provide the value setters/getters for the primitive
675 fundamental types boolean, char, uchar, int, uint, long, ulong, float,
678 * gvalue.[hc]: provide G_TYPE_IS_VALUE() in terms of whether a
679 GTypeValueTable is provided for this type.
680 removed g_value_init_default(), g_value_validate(), g_value_defaults(),
681 g_value_set_default() and g_values_cmp() as these are supplied by the
683 moved g_values_exchange() into the "implementation details" section,
684 since it just provides the underlying functionality for
687 * gvaluecollector.h: renamed the varargs value container from
688 GParamCValue to GTypeCValue as the value collection methods are
689 supplied by the type system now.
690 G_PARAM_COLLECT_VALUE() and G_PARAM_LCOPY_VALUE() got renamed to
691 G_VALUE_COLLECT() and G_VALUE_LCOPY() and operate without a
692 GParamSpec structure now.
694 * genums.h: macros cleanups/fixes.
696 * genum.c: provide G_TYPE_ENUM and G_TYPE_FLAGS type
697 and assorted g_value_{s|g}et_{enum|flags}() implementations.
700 provide G_IS_VALUE_OBJECT(), G_TYPE_OBJECT ValueTable methods
701 and g_value_{s|g}et_object().
703 * gparam.[hc]: reduced class to value_set_default(),
704 value_validate() and values_cmp(). also parameters now need to fill
705 in a GType value_type; field to indicate the GValue type they
706 are handling. provide g_param_value_set_default(),
707 g_param_value_defaults(), g_param_value_validate() and
708 g_param_values_cmp().
710 * gparamspecs.[hc]: got rid of the g_value_* functions and
711 the G_IS_VALUE_* macros. adapted param spec implementations
712 according to the GParamSpecClass changes.
714 Sat Jun 10 08:38:27 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
716 * gtype.c (type_class_init): fetch the nth iface entry of the
717 type node in the nth loop iteration, not alwys the first.
718 bug discovered by Walt Pohl <cher@suitware.com>.
719 (type_data_finalize_class_ifaces): same here, cut and paste
722 Wed Jun 7 09:21:05 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
724 * Makefile.am (INCLUDES): Add top_builddir so glibconfig.h
725 is found properly when build srcdir != builddir. (Patch from
728 2000-05-13 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
732 * gobject.rc.in: New files, for Win32 (mingw) build.
734 * Makefile.am: Add to EXTRA_DIST. Add rules to produce the
735 corresponding non-*.in files.
737 * gtype.h: (Win32:) Mark _g_type_fundamental_last for
738 export/import from DLL.
740 Fri May 5 01:15:48 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
742 * gtype.h: add reserved fundamental ids for gtk types (for transition
743 time). added G_TYPE_FUNDAMENTAL_MAX for gtk.
745 Mon Apr 17 20:45:50 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
747 * glib-gobject.c (g_object_base_class_finalize): oops, don't unset
748 n_params prior to destructing them.
750 Tue Apr 11 04:28:10 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
752 * fixed a couple of bugs in the initial parameter/object
753 implementations, after getting beast running on GObject and GValue.
755 Fri Apr 7 04:27:49 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
757 * glib-gobject.[hc]: completed parameter set/get implementations,
758 along with asyncronous parameter changed notification queue.
760 Sun Apr 2 04:54:36 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
762 * glib-gobject.[hc]: GObject implementation, that is facilities
763 for setting/getting quarked data and reference counting.
765 * glib-gparamspecs.[hc]: first actuall parameter implementations
766 for GLib, so far we have: char, uchar, bool, int, uint, long,
767 ulong, enum, flags, float, double, string and object. each of these
768 GParamSpecs is a new instantiatable type in its own respect,
769 so the .c file derives 13 new types from G_TYPE_PARAM and
770 defines over 50 (*2) conversion facilities.
772 * glib-gvaluecollector.h: generic varargs handling stubs for
773 GParamSpecs, private header file (does get installed for
774 inclusion into user code though).
776 * glib-gvalue.[hc]: GValue functionality implementation.
778 * glib-gparam.[hc]: basis GParamSpec implementation for
779 the virtual base type G_TYPE_PARAM.
781 * glib-genums.[hc]: enum/flags type implementation, based on
784 * glib-gtype.[hc]: GLib Type System implementation, heavily
785 based on BSE's dynamic type system.
