1 Tue Nov 13 23:18:10 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
3 * gsignal.[hc]: add API for chaining:
4 g_signal_chain_from_overridden() and g_signal_override_class_closure(),
5 implementation yet to come.
7 * gtype.[hc], Makefile.am: provide G_LOG_DOMAIN as compile flag.
9 * gparam.[hc]: s/g_param_get/g_param_spec_get/ for get_nick,
10 get_name and get_blurb, to be consistent with the rest of the
11 g_param_spec_*() functions.
13 * gparamspecs.[hc]: got rid of bogus GClosure paramspec.
14 G_TYPE_CLOSURE is a boxed type already.
16 Tue Nov 13 22:16:41 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
18 * gtype.[hc]: API cleanups.
19 remove g_type_check_flags(), provide g_type_test_flags() as
21 s/g_type_check_is_a/g_type_check_class_is_a/, private function.
22 s/g_type_instance_is_a/g_type_check_instance_is_a/, also private.

30 * gclosure.h: provide G_CLOSURE_N_NOTIFIERS() for people that need
31 to walk the notifier list (puhh, black magic, stay-away-warning ;).
33 Mon Nov 5 18:59:08 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
36 * gsignal.h: we need signal.h for G_BREAKPOINT().
38 Sun Nov 4 14:01:23 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
40 * gvaluetypes.[ch]: Add a function g_pointer_type_register_static()
41 to register a type derived from G_TYPE_POINTER.
43 2001-11-03 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>
45 * makefile.msc.in : gobject-query needs gmarshal.[hc,stings]
46 so build it after them. Add gsourceclosure.obj.
48 * gobject.def : removed duplicates, added mising
50 Mon Oct 29 11:05:15 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
52 * glib-mkenums.in: Generate glib-mkenums from glib-mkenums.in,
53 substituting in path to perl. (#63093, Dan Winship)

58 2001-10-26 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
60 * makefile.mingw.in: When running glib-genmarshal, set PATH to
63 2001-10-23 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
65 * Makefile.am: (Win32): If we have built the MSVC import library,
66 install it. Install the gcc import library. Also support
69 2001-10-13 Matthias Clasen <matthiasc@poet.de>
71 * glib-genmarshal.1, glib-mkenums.1: Typo fixes.
73 Fri Oct 12 18:40:18 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
77 Wed Oct 10 17:25:22 2001 Joshua N Pritikin <vishnu@pobox.com>
79 * glib-genmarshal.c gparamspecs.[ch] gtype.[ch] gvalue.h
80 gvaluecollector.h gvaluetypes.[ch]: Fill in missing support for
81 gint64 & guint64 (#59254).
83 * Unconditionalize same (compile with or without G_HAVE_INT64).
85 Wed Oct 10 15:38:58 2001 Joshua N Pritikin <vishnu@pobox.com>
87 * gparamspecs.h (G_IS_PARAM_SPEC_FLAGS): Fix order of

100 2001-10-03 jacob berkman <jacob@ximian.com>
102 * gtype.c (type_iface_retrieve_holder_info_Wm):
103 (type_iface_vtable_init_Wm):
104 (type_iface_vtable_finalize_Wm):
107 * gobject.c (g_object_get_property): s/retrive/retrieve/
109 2001-09-25 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
111 * Makefile.am: Use new macros for .def file, and check for
112 MS_LIB_AVAILABLE, new rule to build MS import library.
114 * makefile.msc.in: Use same DLL and import library names as
117 2001-09-21 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>
119 * gobject.def : updated externals
121 2001-09-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
123 * gobject.rc.in: Correct InternalName and OriginalFilename to
124 match what we actually produce.
126 Tue Sep 18 23:09:02 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>

133 Mon Sep 10 20:31:37 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
135 * gobject.[hc]: removed extraneous GObject* returns from a
136 couple functions that are very unlikely to be used in nested.
137 changed gpointer->GObject* for a couple return values/arguments.
140 Mon Sep 10 19:27:47 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
143 g_type_add_interface*(): implement the ability to add an interface to
144 a type whose parents already conform to this interface.
145 such "overriding" interfaces, when initialized, are not just initialized
146 with 0, but with a copy of the interface they override.
147 g_type_interface_peek_parent(): new function, return the interface
148 that this interface "overrides", if any.
150 * testgruntime.c: test new interface stuff.
152 2001-09-10 Alex Larsson <alexl@redhat.com>
154 * gobject/gboxed.[ch]:
155 * gobject/gsourceclosure.c:
156 Removed is_refcounted and GBoxedInitFunc from
157 g_boxed_type_register_static().
159 Sat Sep 8 14:13:57 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
161 * gobject/Makefile.am: Move gbsearcharray.[ch] to glib
162 as a private ininstalled header.
164 Tue Sep 4 22:24:48 2001 Matthias Clasen <matthiasc@poet.de>

168 Tue Sep 4 01:49:18 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
170 * gsourceclosure.c: make closure_callback_funcs static,
171 added some g_return_if_fail() statements.
173 Mon Aug 27 14:55:27 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
175 * gsourceclosure.[ch] (g_source_set_closure): Implement.
177 * gsourceclosure.[ch]: Add GType's for GIOChannel, GIOCondition.
179 2001-08-17 James Henstridge <james@daa.com.au>
181 * gobject.c (WeakRefStack): add an object member to the structure.
182 (weak_refs_notify): pass wstack->object as extra argument to
184 (g_object_weak_ref): set wstack->object when initialising
187 * gobject.h (GWeakNotify): add second argument to prototype which
188 gives the pointer to where the object that is being disposed of
191 Wed Jul 18 19:42:31 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
193 * gtype.h: if __GNUC__ is defined, inline a test for an exact type
194 match for instances and classes in G_TYPE_CHECK_INSTANCE_TYPE() and
195 G_TYPE_CHECK_CLASS_TYPE() before calling g_type_instance_is_a().
197 Sun Aug 12 02:07:10 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
199 * gvaluearray.[hc]: fix preallocation logic, support DISABLE_MEM_POOLS
200 properly, group value allocations.
201 (g_value_array_new): fix semantic of n_prealloced argument, so it's
202 really just about preallocation space.
204 2001-07-23 Padraig O'Briain <Padraig.Obriain@Sun.COM>
206 * gobject/gobjectnotifyqueue.c: fix unconditional check of
207 first GParamSpec in g_object_notify_queue_thaw(); to prevent
208 property notification being lost.
210 2001-08-06 Sven Neumann <sven@gimp.org>
213 added new functions g_object_[add|remove]_weak_pointer().
215 2001-08-01 Sven Neumann <sven@gimp.org>
217 * gsignal.h: added convenience macro g_signal_connect_after().
219 2001-07-29 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>
221 * gobject.def : updated externals
223 2001-07-20 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>
225 * gobject.def : updated externals
227 * makefile.msc.in : reflect glib move
229 Tue Jul 10 18:50:16 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
231 * gsignal.h (struct _GSignalQuery): fix misplaced comment.
233 Mon Jul 2 07:17:47 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
235 * gobject.c (g_object_weak_ref):
236 (g_object_watch_closure): congrats tim, introducing of-by-one
237 errors like on my very first day of C programming.
239 Sat Jun 30 11:07:00 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
241 * gobject.[hc]: provide weak_ref/weak_unref functions,
242 invoked from ->dispose. renamed ->shutdown() to ->dispose(),
243 provide "public" API entry here: g_object_run_dispose(), this
244 fucntion should _only_ be called from object system implementations
245 (e.g. gtkobject.c) if at all.
247 * gtypemodule.c (g_type_module_dispose): s/shutdown/dispose/
249 * gsignal.h: removed compat aliases.
251 * gobject.c (g_object_connect): support data objects.
253 Sat Jun 30 13:17:12 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
255 * testgruntime.c (test_object_class_init)
256 gobject.c (g_object_do_class_init):
257 g_signal_newc() => g_signal_new().
259 Thu Jun 28 22:49:40 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
261 * gtype.[ch] gobject-query.c testgruntime.c: Remove
262 debug flag argument to g_type_init() and add
263 g_type_init_with_debug_flags().
265 Thu Jun 28 16:42:49 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
267 * gsignal.c (g_signal_lookup):
268 (g_signal_list_ids): give elaborate warnings about invalid types,
269 non-instantiatable types and unloaded types that we can't operate on.
271 * gparam.[hc]: g_param_spec_pool_belongings() ->
272 g_param_spec_pool_list_owned().
274 * gsignal.[hc]: renamed:
275 g_signal_newc -> g_signal_new
276 g_signal_disconnect_by_func -> g_signal_handlers_disconnect_by_func
277 g_signal_block_by_func -> g_signal_handlers_block_by_func
278 g_signal_unblock_by_func -> g_signal_handlers_unblock_by_func
279 added GConnectType to simplify (..gboolean swapped, gboolean after)
282 * gobject.[hc]: changed prototypes accordingly.
284 2001-06-22 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>
286 * gobject.def : updated externals
288 * gobjectnotifyqueue.c : include <string.h> for memset ()
290 Thu Jun 21 02:43:10 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
292 * gparamspecs.h: s/long/int/ for default_value in enum and flags
295 Wed Jun 20 03:59:42 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
297 * gtype.[hc]: added debugging variants g_type_name_from_class(),
298 g_type_name_from_instance().
300 Mon Jun 11 17:07:06 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
302 * gboxed.[hc]: remove left-over usages of an anonymous GBoxed typedef.
304 * gobjectnotifyqueue.c: moved property notify queue implementation
305 bits into this function.
307 * gparam.[hc]: added g_param_spec_pool_belongings(), completed
308 g_param_spec_pool_list(). added GParameter for _setv() functions.
310 * gobject.[hc]: use gobjectnotifyqueue.h implementation now.
311 got rid of properties_changed signal.
312 new functions g_object_newv(), g_object_class_list_properties().
313 removed "properties_changed" signal.
315 * gtype.[hc]: added g_type_depth() to figure number of parent
316 types + 1 for a type.
318 * gsignal.h: add g_signal_connect() (as per owen's request) and
319 g_signal_connect_swapped().
321 2001-06-13 Havoc Pennington <hp@redhat.com>
323 * Makefile.am (progs_LDADD): link to ./libgobject-1.3.la
324 since an installed libgobject was somehow being found; think
325 it's a libtool bug, but this workaround should do for now.
327 2001-06-12 Havoc Pennington <hp@redhat.com>
329 * Makefile.am (glib-mkenums): don't put $(srcdir)/glib-mkenums in
330 bin_SCRIPTS, that breaks make install. Instead put 'glib-mkenums'
331 in bin_SCRIPTS and cp it into builddir
333 Thu May 31 17:56:47 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
335 * gobject-query.c: Fix mispelling in help output.
336 (#53952, Skip Montanaro)
338 2001-05-28 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
340 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Really distribute glib-mkenums, now
341 that bin_SCRIPTS doesn't seem to care about doing so anymore.
343 Mon May 28 06:51:24 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
345 * gsignal.c (signal_emit_unlocked_R): fixed bad faux-pass, forgot
346 to release signal lock when restarting emissions.
348 Sun May 27 04:52:28 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
350 * gsignal.[hc] (g_signal_stop_emission_by_name): added variant
351 to stop signal emissions through a detailed_signal string.
353 * gsignal.c (signal_emit_R) (g_signal_emit_valist): account for
354 the fact that g_value_* functions may cause signal emissons by
355 unlocking the global signal system lock around g_value_* functions.
356 (signal_emit_unlocked_R): renamed this from signal_emit_R() to reflect
357 that this functions acquires the lock on its own now.
359 2001-05-24 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>
361 * makefile.msc.in : changed depndencies to build glib-genmarshal
362 first and statically linked with glib, which makes it independent
363 from the installed glib version. Added new object files to build.
365 * gobject.def : updated
367 Thu May 24 08:52:02 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
369 * gobject.[ch] (g_value_set_object): gpointer, not
372 2001-05-22 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
374 * Makefile.am (bin_SCRIPTS): made 'make distcheck' happy.
376 * gobject.def: Removed g_param_spec_stringc.
378 Tue May 22 02:46:13 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
380 * gobject.c (g_value_set_object): make g_value_set_object()
381 take a gpointer v_object so people don't need to G_OBJECT()
382 cast NULL pointers (C code convenience).
384 Mon May 14 01:49:01 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
386 * gsignal.[hc] (g_signal_handler_is_connected): new function
387 to check whether a handler is still connected to an instance
390 Thu May 10 14:00:48 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
392 * gparamspecs.[hc]: removed g_param_spec_stringc() in lack of
393 evidence of public need.
395 * gsignal.h: added g_signal_disconnect_by_func(),
396 g_signal_block_by_func() and g_signal_unblock_by_func() convenience
397 macros as per owen's request.
399 * gtype.c (SIZEOF_FUNDAMENTAL_INFO): align sizeof (GTypeFundamentalInfo)
400 to size of longs and pointers.
402 2001-05-05 James Henstridge <james@daa.com.au>
404 * Makefile.am: glib-mkenums is not a compiled program, so shouldn't
405 be in the bin_PROGRAMS primary. Put it in bin_SCRIPTS instead, and
406 removed the glib_mkenums_SOURCES var.
408 Thu May 3 06:10:23 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
410 * gobject.c (g_object_set_[q]data_full): Make types of ternary
411 operator correspond. (Fixes compilation errors with Sun CC,
414 Mon Apr 30 20:03:56 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
416 * glib-mkenums (usage): removed \v escaping, newer perl versions don't
417 support this, and it'S probably useless anyways.
419 Sat Apr 28 23:39:42 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
421 * gsignal.[hc]: made signal handler and emission hook ids gulongs.
422 (signal_handlers_foreach_matched_R): only invoke callback for handlers
423 that are not disconnected (id>0).
424 (signal_emit_R): prevent invocation of signal handlers during the
425 emission they were connected within.
427 * glib-mkenums: publically installed perl-script to parse C code
428 enums and generate descriptions thereof.
429 * glib-mkenums.1: assorted man page.
431 2001-04-19 Havoc Pennington <hp@redhat.com>
433 * gobject.c (g_object_get_valist): We were returning junk memory
434 here, because we didn't copy the value (G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS
435 passed to G_VALUE_LCOPY) and then we freed the GValue immediately
436 after. Removed G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS from here; need a
437 G_VALUE_STEAL_CONTENTS or the like if we want this optimization.
439 Wed Apr 18 09:46:56 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
441 * gobject.c gsignal.c: Change C++ comments for FIXME's to
442 C comments. (Patch from Andres Salomon)
444 2001-04-14 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>
446 * gobject.def : updated
448 Mon Apr 9 18:56:15 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
450 * gclosure.c (g_closure_invoke): only require marshal/meta_marshal if
451 we're valid (about to actually do marshalling).
453 Tue Apr 3 20:23:24 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
457 Tue Apr 3 14:06:00 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
459 * gparam.[hc]: added g_param_spec_pool_list() to list pspecs per
460 owner_type. the pspecs are not referenced, so the caller is
461 supposed to have some idea about owner_type not randomly
462 nuking his pspec's. if this is going to provide problems in
463 the future, we can either auto-ref the pspecs, or add a
464 _foreach variant, though the latter would have to invoke
465 the callback while pspec's mutex is acquired, so i just
466 went for the _list variant for now.
468 * gclosure.h (G_CALLBACK): made GCallback a void (*) (void) fucntion.
470 Sat Mar 31 23:55:58 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
473 * gparamspecs.[hc]: applied patch from owen to implement
476 Fri Mar 30 07:34:02 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
478 * gtype.c (type_iface_retrive_holder_info_Wm):
479 * gtypeplugin.c (g_type_plugin_complete_interface_info):
480 * gtypemodule.c (g_type_module_complete_interface_info):
481 change order of instance_type and interface_type so they match
482 the g_type_add_interface_*() API.
484 * gsignal.c (g_signal_emit_valist): always assign C return value
485 location, people depending on unaltered return values after emissions
486 that had no handlers to run need to use g_signal_emitv().
488 * gtype.[hc] (g_type_query): new function to allow querying of
489 class and object size (semantics like g_signal_query()).
490 currently the implementation is better held conservative so as to
491 only support types that are classed and static.
493 2001-03-29 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
495 * gobject.def: Updates.
497 Wed Mar 28 17:04:06 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
499 * gobject.c (object_queue_property): only queue readable properties
500 for notification changes.
502 Thu Mar 22 13:36:50 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
504 * gsignal.c (g_signal_newv): catch G_SIGNAL_RUN_FIRST with a return value.
506 2001-03-21 Martin Baulig <baulig@suse.de>
508 * gboxed.[ch] (g_value_dup_boxed): This takes a `const GValue *'
511 2001-03-18 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
513 * gobject.def: Correct some renamed functions.
515 Sat Mar 17 23:18:36 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
517 * gobject.c (g_object_get_property): minor bug-fix.
519 * gbsearcharray.[hc]: provide a macro for static initialization and
520 functions g_bsearch_array_new() and g_bsearch_array_destroy() for
523 * gboxed.c: introduce G_TYPE_GSTRING, boxed type for GString.
525 * gclosure.[hc]: naming corrections.
527 Fri Mar 9 16:42:08 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
529 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: moved g_strdup_value_contents() into this file as
530 a public function (was static in gobject.c before). it's a bit odd
531 to have that function here, especially since it requires extra includes,
532 but then it doesn't very well fit somewhere else either.
534 * gparamspecs.c: added default/max/min checks to param spec creation
537 2001-03-10 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
539 * gobject.def: Add a couple of missing entries.
541 * Makefile.am (libgobject_1_3_la_LIBADD): Use only on Win32.
543 Fri Mar 9 14:57:17 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
545 * testgruntime.c: test program. covers run first/last/cleanup signal
546 handlers, return value accumulator, signal string returns, and
547 interface types in signal arguments.
549 * gtype.c (g_type_value_table_peek): for interface types without
550 value table, try looking up a value table from an instantiatable
551 prerequisite type (this is safe as an interface may only have
552 one instantiatable prerequisiste).
553 (type_check_is_value_type_U): same here.
555 * gsignal.c (g_signal_newv): assert that return types never have
556 G_SIGNAL_TYPE_STATIC_SCOPE set.
557 (g_signal_newc): only create class closure if the class_offset is not
560 Fri Mar 9 10:14:00 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
562 * gparamspecs.c (g_param_spec_object): use g_type_is_a() to check
563 for object_type being a G_TYPE_OBJECT, not G_TYPE_IS_OBJECT(), since
564 that wouldn't allow interface types.
566 * gtype.c (g_type_interface_add_prerequisite): arg, fixed small cnp bug
567 with bad implications and an off-by-one error.
569 Thu Mar 8 16:34:22 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
571 * gvaluetransform.c: Include <string.h> for memcpy.
573 * gvaluetransform.c (DEFINE_SPRINTF): Remove unnecessary
574 and ANSI-illegal ## token pasting.
576 Thu Mar 8 18:11:52 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
578 * gsignal.c: eek, fixed old hook detail storage code.
580 Thu Mar 8 16:35:48 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
582 * gparamspecs.[hc]: s/g_param_spec_string_c/g_param_spec_stringc/.
584 * gsignal.[hc]: fixed accumulator invocation, implemented emission
585 hooks. and no, neither of these callbacks are called via a closure,
586 language bindings can wrap the accumulator and emission hook
587 interface, they already get parameters marshalled into a GValue array.
588 (g_signal_connect): removed this function as its C specific, doesn't
589 cover the swapped argument, is too close to its broken original
590 gtk_signal_connect() and creates demand for _swapped, _after and
591 _swapped_after variants <brrr>.
592 (g_signal_connectc): convenience macro to connect a C handler
593 func with data, like the old g_signal_connect() plus swapped
597 * gboxed.c: added G_TYPE_VALUE boxed type.
599 Wed Mar 7 19:02:51 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
601 * gtype.c (type_node_add_iface_entry_W): catch when adding an interface
602 to an ancestor of a child that already conforms to this interface.
603 currently we spew a warning here, should we be silent?
604 (g_type_interface_add_prerequisite): new function to add a prerequisite
605 type to an interface, that must succeed an instance is_a prerequisite
606 type check before the interface can be added to an instance. the
607 prerequisite types are also suuported in is_a checks of the interface.
608 (g_type_instance_is_a):
609 (g_type_check_instance_cast):
610 (g_type_check_instance): cleanups and optimizations.
612 (g_type_check_class_cast): same, also prevented these from accepting
613 interface types, as class structures don't nest interfaces.
615 2001-03-07 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
617 * Makefile.am: Avoid rebuilding everything everytime.
619 Wed Mar 7 09:36:33 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
621 * gboxed.[hc]: changed prototype of g_boxed_type_register_static()
622 to contain an optional init function and a hint at whether the
623 boxed structure uses ref counting internally.
624 added g_value_set_boxed_take_ownership().
625 made G_TYPE_BOXED an abstract value type.
627 * genums.[hc]: made G_TYPE_ENUM and G_TYPE_FLAGS abstract value
630 * glib-genmarshal.c: argument type changes, preparation for third-party
633 * gobject.[hc]: cleaned up get/set property code.
634 added g_strdup_value_contents() to improve warnings.
636 * gparam.[hc]: added g_param_value_convert(), taking over responsibility
637 of the old g_value_convert(). added G_PARAM_LAX_VALIDATION flag so
638 validation alterations may be valid a part of the property setting
641 * gparamspecs.[hc]: made value comparisons stable (for sort applications).
642 added GParamSpecValueArray, a param spec for value arrays and
643 GParamSpecClosure. nuked the value exchange functions and
646 * gtype.[hc]: catch unintialized usages of the type system with
647 g_return_val_if_uninitialized(). introduced G_TYPE_FLAG_VALUE_ABSTRACT
648 to flag types that introduce a value table, but can't be used for
649 g_value_init(). cleaned up reserved type ids.
651 * gvalue.[hc]: code cleanups and saner checking.
652 nuked the value exchange API. implemented value transformations, we
653 can't really "convert" values, rather transforms are an anylogy to
654 C casts, real conversions need a param spec for validation, which is
655 why g_param_value_convert() does real conversions now.
657 * gvaluearray.[hc]: new files that implement a GValueArray, a struct
658 that can hold inhomogeneous arrays of value (to that extend that it
659 also allowes undefined values, i.e. G_VALUE_TYPE(value)==0).
660 this is exposed to the type system as a boxed type.
662 * gvaluetransform.c: new file implementing most of the former value
663 exchange functions as single-sided transformations.
665 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: nuked G_TYPE_CCALLBACK, added
666 g_value_set_string_take_ownership().
668 * *.h: s/G_IS_VALUE_/G_VALUE_HOLDS_/.
670 * *.[hc]: many fixes and cleanups.
672 * many warning improvements.
674 Tue Feb 27 18:35:15 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
676 * gobject.c (g_object_get_valist): urg, pass G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS
677 into G_VALUE_LCOPY(), this needs proper documenting.
679 * gparam.c: fixed G_PARAM_USER_MASK.
681 * gtype.c (type_data_make_W):
682 (type_data_last_unref_Wm): fixed invalid memory freeing.
684 * gobject.c (g_object_last_unref): destroy signal handlers associated
685 with object, right before finalization.
687 * gsignal.c (g_signal_parse_name): catch destroyed nodes or signals
688 that don't actually support details.
690 * gobject.[hc]: got rid of property trailers. nuked GObject
691 properties "data" and the "signal" variants.
692 (g_object_connect): new convenience function to do multiple
693 signal connections at once.
694 (g_object_disconnect): likewise, for disconnections.
696 * gparam.[hc] (g_param_spec_pool_lookup): took out trailer support.
698 * gvalue.[hc]: marked g_value_fits_pointer() and g_value_peek_pointer()
699 as private (the latter got renamed from g_value_get_as_pointer()).
701 2001-02-21 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
703 * *.h: Use G_BEGIN_DECLS and G_END_DECLS.
705 * Makefile.am: Use libglib-1.3.la from top_builddir. Invoke
706 libtool with -no-undefined for Win32 and Cygwin.
708 Wed Feb 21 18:31:46 2001 Jonathan Blandford <jrb@redhat.com>
710 * gsignal.h (g_signal_connect): Add g_signal_connect define to
711 make porting from gtk_signal_connect easy.
713 * gsignal.c (g_signal_emit_valist): Use G_TYPE_FROM_INSTANCE
714 (instance) instead of node->itype when initting the value.
716 2001-02-17 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>
718 Applied patch from Soeren Sandmann:
720 * gvaluetypes.c (g_value_get_string): G_CONST_RETURN
722 * gtype.c (g_type_name): G_CONST_RETURN
724 * gsignal.c (g_signal_name): G_CONST_RETURN
726 * gobject-query.c (main): const fix
728 Sat Feb 17 07:58:46 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
730 * genums.h (G_TYPE_IS_FLAGS): patch from sven to fixup
731 G_ENUM_CLASS_TYPE() macro.
733 Sat Feb 17 04:55:35 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
735 * gtype.[hc]: changed collect_format, collect_value() and lcopy_format,
736 lcopy_value() in the GTypeValueTable. the collect functions are now
737 called only once per value, collect_format/lcopy_format are strings
738 that enlist all necessary GTypeCValues to be varargs-collected.
740 * gvalue.h: ranamed STATIC_TAG to G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS to indicate that
741 a value shouldn't copy its contents.
743 * gvaluecollector.h: changed G_VALUE_COLLECT() and G_VALUE_LCOPY()
744 macros to carry an additional argument (flags) that can be used
745 to pass G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS along to the collection functions.
747 * *.c: adapted collect_value() and lcopy_value() functions to the new
748 prototypes, support G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS where apropriate.
750 * gsignal.[hc]: introduced a G_SIGNAL_TYPE_STATIC_SCOPE flag that can
751 be passed along (ORed) with the parameter types, indicating that the
752 emission arguments are to be considered static for the scope of the
753 emission. should be used with care and only if the caller knows that
754 a parameter cannot be destroyed/freed from signal handlers connected
757 Fri Feb 16 07:10:44 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
761 (g_closure_sink): make closure sinking explicit.
764 (g_signal_connect_data):
765 (g_signal_connect_closure):
766 (g_signal_connect_closure_by_id):
767 (g_signal_newv): perform explicit closure sinking.
769 Thu Feb 8 00:31:45 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
771 * gtype.h: added G_TYPE_DEBUG_NONE for/from Eric Lemings ;)
773 2001-02-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
775 * gobject.def: Remove glib_debug_objects.
777 Sun Feb 4 07:30:53 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
779 * gtype.[hc]: changed g_type_init() to take debugging flags
780 initially, a combination of G_TYPE_DEBUG_OBJECTS and
781 G_TYPE_DEBUG_SIGNALS. using the G_TYPE_ prefix is a bit odd
782 here, but basically g_type_int() serves as initialization
783 fucntion for all of GType, GObject, GSignal, so what the heck.
785 * gobject.c: special case debugging code properly.
786 changed glib_trap_object_ref to g_trap_object_ref.
788 * gsignal.c: add signal emission debugging abilities, along with
789 a new trap object g_trap_instance_signals.
791 2001-02-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
793 * Makefile.am (progs_LDADD): Change order of libs to libgobject
794 first, then libglib. Needed for cygwin, says jbdoll@kepri.re.kr.
796 Wed Jan 31 06:19:49 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
798 * gparam.h: gtk-doc sucks for not dealing with #define inside enums.
800 * gtype.[hc]: added G_TYPE_FLAG_RESERVED_ID_BIT, a bit in the type
801 number that's supposed to be left untouched (preserved mainly
802 for the signal code).
804 * *.c: added thread safety code, based on an old patch from sebastian.
805 the remaining thread safety issues are now datalists on pspecs (to be
806 solved im gdataset.c) and gvalue.c where locking concerns value exchange
807 functionality only, and that's soon to be revised.
809 2001-01-27 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
811 * makefile.msc.in: Don't try to compile gmarshal.c on its own.
813 2001-01-24 <alexl@redhat.com>
815 * gclosure.c (g_closure_unref):
816 Don't leak closure->notifiers.
818 2001-01-05 Havoc Pennington <hp@redhat.com>
820 * gparamspecs.c (g_param_spec_enum): set the value_type in the
821 param spec; closes bug 40210
822 (g_param_spec_flags): ditto for flags
824 2001-01-03 Alexander Larsson <alexl@redhat.com>
827 Move glib_debug_objects out of the G_ENABLE_DEBUG #ifdef.
829 Thu Dec 28 11:36:44 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
831 * gbsearcharray.c (upper_power2): disable G_BSEARCH_ALIGN_POWER2
832 fucntionality if DISABLE_MEM_POOLS is defined.
834 * gtype.c: honour DISABLE_MEM_POOLS.
836 * gsignal.c (g_signal_init): flag signal key bsearch array with
837 G_BSEARCH_ALIGN_POWER2 to avoid excessive growth time. honour
840 * gparam.h: added G_PARAM_READWRITE alias for (G_PARAM_READABLE |
843 2000-12-15 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
845 * gobject.def: Update.
847 2000-12-15 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>
849 * gobject.c (g_object_do_class_init): use g_signal_newc
851 * gsignal.c (g_signal_newc): convenience function for signals
853 (g_signal_new_valist): added
854 (g_signal_new): removed
856 Fri Dec 15 04:40:23 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
858 * gparam.[hc]: add an instance member value_type so the default
859 value of the pspec class can be overridden.
861 2000-12-14 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
863 * makefile.mingw.in: Update, include parts from Makefile.am to
864 build gmarshal.[ch]. Some day, we won't need these separate
865 makefiles for Win32 compilation. I hope.
867 * makefile.msc.in: Update. No use trying to build gmarshal.[ch]
868 here, it would require Unixish tools. MSVC users building from CVS
869 sources are out of luck.
871 * gobject.def: Update.
873 Wed Dec 13 09:31:26 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
875 * gparamspecs.[hc]: add G_TYPE_PARAM_BOXED implementation.
877 * gobject.[hc]: minor fixes.
879 Tue Dec 12 23:38:02 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
881 * Makefile.am: _never_ touch oldest-source-stamp.
883 * gobject.[hc]: construct property handling fixes/improvements.
884 fixed trailer handling in get/set property.
886 * gparam.[hc]: implement param spec pool, got rid of param spec
887 hashtable. the most prominent change is that e deal with type
890 2000-12-12 Elliot Lee <sopwith@redhat.com>
893 . You have to 'touch oldest-source-stamp' if you want to avoid having
894 the Makefile constantly rebuild itself.
895 . Fix marshaller generation rules to work with srcdir != builddir
896 (there were issues with trying to run "./glib-genmarshal", etc.)
898 Mon Dec 11 04:44:11 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
900 * gboxed.c: fixed dealing with collection/lcopy of NULL values.
902 * gclosure.h: removed insane ramblings, added G_CALLBACK() a casting
905 * Makefile.am: cleanups, marshaller generation rules.
907 * gmarshal.[hc]: new files with GRuntime standard marshallers.
909 * glib-genmarshal.c: fix log domain, support gruntime standard
910 marshallers, suport G_TYPE_PARAM, come with extern "C" and
913 * glib-genmarshal.1: reflect glib-genmarshal.c updates.
915 * gobject.[hc]: implement object constructor. rework parameter
916 changed notification queueing, we support queue freezes now and
917 don't dispatch from an idle handler anymore.
918 parameter->property rename hassle.
919 implemented ::properties_changed and ::notify::* signals for
920 property change notification (the later supports property names
921 as details). added signal connection and named data properties.
922 (g_signal_connect_object): new function to setup while_alive
924 (g_object_class_install_property): sink properties now, since they
925 are initially floating.
926 (g_object_steal_data):
927 (g_object_set_data_full):
929 (g_object_get_data): set/get data by using g_datalist_*() functions
931 (g_object_queue_param_changed): nuked.
932 (g_object_freeze_notify): start queueing of property changes (freeze/
934 (g_object_notify): announce changes of a certain property directly.
935 (g_object_thaw_notify): process queue of property changes, therefore
936 emitting GObject::notify::detail with detail being the changed
938 (G_OBJECT_WARN_INVALID_PROPERTY_ID): saner macro variant of former
939 G_WARN_INVALID_PARAM_ID().
941 * gparam.[hc]: param specs are now initially floating and need to be
942 sunken with g_param_spec_sink(), support G_TYPE_PARAM values.
943 added G_PARAM_CONSTRUCT and G_PARAM_CONSTRUCT_ONLY parameter flags,
944 required by GObjectClass.constructor().
946 * gparamspecs.[hc]: added GParamSpecParam, GParamSpecPointer and
947 GParamSpecCCallback, param specs for G_TYPE_PARAM, G_TYPE_POINTER
948 and G_TYPE_CCALLBACK respectively.
950 * gsignal.[hc]: cleanups.
951 (signal_id_lookup): after walking the anchestry, try interfaces as well.
952 (g_signal_new): new function to create signals from varargs type list.
953 (g_signal_connect_closure): closure connection variant that works from
955 (g_signal_connect_data): c handler connection variant that works from
957 (g_signal_emit_valist): emit signal for an instance with paraneters
958 collected from a va_list.
959 (g_signal_emit): emit signal, taking parameters from varargs list.
960 (g_signal_emit_by_name): same as g_signal_emit, working from
962 (signal_emit_R): return whether return_value needs to be altered.
964 * gtype.[hc]: set log-domain to GRuntime, i'm slowly getting to all
965 the points that need to reflect the upcoming rename.
966 melt g_type_conforms_to() functionality into g_type_is_a(), as that
967 is what we really want (liskov substitution principle).
968 assorted changes to other files due to conforms_to->is_a.
970 * gvalue.[hc]: implemented g_value_set_instance() that sets a value
971 from an instantiatable type via the value_table's collect_value()
972 function (based on an idea from James Henstridge <james@daa.com.au>).
975 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: implement G_TYPE_CCALLBACK and G_TYPE_PARAM.
977 Wed Nov 29 13:30:05 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
979 * gsignal.c (handlers_find): fix elliots "logic fix" that dereferences
980 NULL nodes if C handlers are searched for specific signals.
982 2000-11-28 Elliot Lee <sopwith@redhat.com>
984 * gsignal.c: Fix warnings about possible use of uninitialized
985 variables, and fix logic that would leave 'node' unset in cases
986 that it might be used in.
988 * glib-genmarshal.c: Fix warning about printf format.
990 2000-11-28 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
992 * gboxed.c: Include <string.h> for memset ().
994 2000-11-22 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
996 * gobject.def: Update.
998 2000-11-20 Havoc Pennington <hp@redhat.com>
1000 * gobject.c (g_object_get_data)
1002 (g_object_set_data_full)
1003 (g_object_steal_data): More convenient data-setting functions
1005 Wed Nov 15 20:58:05 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
1007 * gtypemodule.c (g_type_module_use): If loading the
1008 module fails, don't increment the use count.
1010 Thu Nov 9 01:49:43 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1012 * gobject.h (G_WARN_INVALID_PARAM_ID): doh,
1013 s/BSE_OBJECT_TYPE_NAME/G_OBJECT_TYPE_NAME/; reported by Maas-Maarten
1014 Zeeman <maas@wanadoo.nl>.
1016 Mon Nov 13 00:48:39 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
1018 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add glib-genmarshal.1
1020 2000-11-11 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
1022 * gtypemodule.c: Include stdlib.h for exit().
1024 * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in (gobject_OBJECTS): Add gtypemodule.
1026 * gobject.def: Add missing functions.
1028 Sun Nov 5 13:21:28 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
1030 * Makefile.am gtypemodule.[ch]: New basic implementation of
1031 GTypePlugin interface as a GObject. Dynamically loaded modules can
1032 register any number of types and interface on the module.
1034 Sun Nov 5 10:25:40 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
1036 * gsignal.c (handlers_find): When appending handlers and
1037 not matching on signal_id, use hlist->signal_id instead of
1038 signal_id. Having the correct signal_id when unreffing
1039 the handlers makes things work a lot better.
1041 2000-11-05 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
1043 * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in (gobject_OBJECTS): Add gtypeplugin.
1045 * gobject.def: Update.
1047 Sun Nov 5 05:22:55 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1050 fixed a bag full of subtle bugs of immensive screw-up potential in
1051 handlers_find(), luckily no one found out about them yet ;)
1052 fixed signal_handlers_foreach_matched_R() so it operates on an
1053 initial handler list snapshot provided by handlers_find() to work
1054 around general reentrancy problems and to avoid multiple callback()
1055 invocations on the same handlers.
1056 this code is now officially 80% bug free (10% remaining for interface
1057 types, and 10% remaining for destroyed signals ;)
1059 Sat Nov 4 02:01:33 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1061 * gsignal.c (_g_signals_destroy): valid signal nodes start out at 1.
1063 * gtypeplugin.[hc]: new files holding a GTypePlugin interface
1064 implementation that provides the API required by GType to deal with
1065 dynamically loadable types.
1067 * gtype.[hc]: displace any GTypePlugin business to gtypeplugin.h.
1069 Fri Nov 3 07:35:00 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1071 * gsignal.[hc]: prefix internal functions with '_'. renamed
1072 g_signal_connect_closure() to g_signal_connect_closure_by_id().
1073 added g_signal_parse_name() to retrive signal_id and detail quark
1074 from a signal name (internal).
1076 Wed Nov 1 03:36:54 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1078 * gobject.c (g_object_base_class_finalize): destroy all signals that
1079 the finalized obejct type introduced.
1081 * gsignal.c (g_signals_destroy): don't require itype to have
1084 * gobject.c (g_object_do_finalize): make sure all signal handlers
1088 (g_signal_handler_find): only match on non-0 masks.
1089 (g_signal_handlers_block_matched):
1090 (g_signal_handlers_unblock_matched):
1091 (g_signal_handlers_disconnect_matched): new functions to block/unblock
1092 or disconnect handlers in groups.
1094 2000-10-30 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
1096 * gvalue.c (exchange_entries_equal), gparam.c (param_spec_equals):
1097 made both functions return gboolean just for the little extra
1098 standard conformance now that GEqualFunc is introduced.
1100 Mon Oct 30 05:52:45 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1102 * gsignal.c (g_signal_list_ids): get rid of inline documentation owen
1103 added, the doc system would ignore it anyways (for some reason not
1106 Mon Oct 30 03:00:07 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1108 * gsignal.[hc] (g_signal_list_ids): renamed owen's g_type_signals(),
1109 added required mutex locks.
1111 Sun Oct 29 02:31:03 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
1113 * gsignal.c (g_type_signals): Fix problem where signals
1114 with "_" in them appeared twice in the result array.
1116 Sun Oct 29 01:58:44 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
1118 * gsignal.h: Add g_type_signals() - a function to list
1119 all signals for a given type.
1121 Sat Oct 28 00:28:09 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1123 * gclosure.c (g_closure_add_marshal_guards): fixed notifier position
1124 for post_marshal guard which was off at 0.
1126 Fri Oct 27 21:49:31 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1128 * gobject.[hc]: doh, fix argument order in for
1129 g_cclosure_new_object_swap and g_cclosure_new_object.
1131 2000-10-28 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
1133 * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in: Make glib-genmarshal.exe.
1135 * glib-genmarshal.c: Conditionalise include of unistd.h.
1136 Include <io.h> on Win32.
1138 * gobject.def: Add some missing entry points.
1140 Fri Oct 27 16:33:41 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1142 * gsignal.[hc]: publically define GSignalInvocationHint structure
1143 that gets passed in to closure invocations. added signal details.
1144 renamed GSignalType to GSignalFlags to comply with conventions.
1145 quite some cleanups and minor fixes. avoid uneccessary handler list
1146 walks upon invokation of after handlers. relookup handler list for
1147 restarted emissions. preliminary abort normal handler invokation if
1148 after handler is encountered.
1150 * glib-genmarshal.c:
1151 * gclosure.[hc]: moved invocation_hint to the end of the
1152 g_closure_invoke() arguments as sugegsted by kenelson.
1153 also made it a gpointer to be more generic. the invocation_hint
1154 is a caller specific thing that can be used to pass additional
1155 data in to closure invocations as documented with the caller
1156 invoking the closure.
1158 Fri Oct 27 05:35:14 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1160 * gobject.c (g_object_watch_closure): fixed realloc bug, reported
1163 * gsignal.c (g_signal_newv): fixed deadlock scenarion where
1164 g_signal_lookup() would be called with the signal lock being
1165 held. reported by james henstridge.
1167 * gclosure.c (g_closure_set_meta_marshal): fixed memcpy/overwrite bug
1170 2000-10-26 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
1172 * gbsearcharray.c (bsearch_array_insert): Fix gccisms (pointer
1173 arithmetic on void pointer, label without statement following.
1175 * gtype.c (type_node_fundamental_info): Don't apply unary minus to
1176 result of sizeof operator, it can be unsigned. Cast first to
1179 * gobject.def: Add new functions.
1181 * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in: Add new objects.
1183 2000-10-26 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
1185 * Makefile.am: Remove empty SUBDIRS line _again_, as that _still_
1186 prevents 'make dist' from working.
1188 Wed Oct 25 19:11:03 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
1190 * gbsearcharray.h (g_bsearch_array_get_nth): Don't use implicit
1191 casts from void * since this will get included from C++ too
1194 Thu Oct 26 00:30:27 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1196 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: added g_value_set_static_string().
1198 * gboxed.[hc]: const corrections. added g_value_set_static_boxed().
1200 Wed Oct 25 20:27:02 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1202 * gtype.c (g_type_free_instance): for the moment, freeing object
1203 structures will fill their memory portion with 0xAA. there's a
1204 FIXME there, remove this line at a later point.
1206 Tue Oct 24 23:10:26 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1208 * glib-genmarshal.1:
1209 * glib-genmarshal.c: added publically installed marshaller generator.
1211 * gtype.h: added G_TYPE_INSTANCE_GET_INTERFACE() to retrive a certain
1212 interface VTable from instances.
1214 Mon Oct 23 08:28:15 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1216 * gobject.[hc]: new functions for closure maintenance:
1217 (g_object_watch_closure): maintain validity of the object and
1218 the closure for objects that are used as data part of a closure.
1219 (g_cclosure_new_object): convenience function to create C closures
1220 that have an object as data argument.
1221 (g_closure_new_object): convenience function to create closures
1222 that have an object as data argument.
1224 * gclosure.[hc]: implementation of GClosure mechanism.
1225 a closure is basically an encapsulation of a callback function
1226 and its environment. ideally, most places supporting callback
1227 functions will simply take a GClosure* pointer and thus unify
1228 callback environments wrg destroy notification etc.
1229 GClosure provides destroy notifiers for arbitrary data pointers,
1230 reference counting, invalidation notification (it can be invalidated
1231 which is merely a deactivate state) and a marshallinbg abstraction.
1232 GCClosure is also provided in these files, they present a specialized
1233 GClosure implementation for C language callbacks.
1235 * genum.c: macro cleanups.
1237 * gboxed.[hc]: new files, for boxed type abstraction.
1238 (g_boxed_copy): copy a boxed structure
1239 (g_boxed_free): free a boxed structure
1240 (g_value_set_boxed):
1241 (g_value_get_boxed): standard GValue functions for boxed types
1242 (g_boxed_type_register_static): convenience function for easy
1243 introduction of new G_TYPE_BOXED derivatives.
1245 * gparam.[hc]: introduced g_param_type_register_static(), a short hand
1246 for creation of new GParamSpec derived types.
1248 * gtype.[hc]: many fixes, introduced ability to flag individual
1249 type nodes as ABSTRACT upon registration, added value_peek_pointer()
1250 to the value table to peek at GValue contents as a pointer for types
1251 that support this. fixed up GValue checks.
1253 * gvalue.[hc]: added g_value_fits_pointer() and g_value_get_as_pointer()
1254 to peek at the value contents as pointer.
1256 * *.[hc]: adaptions to type macro fixes and changes in the type
1259 * many const corrections over the place.
1261 Sat Oct 21 02:49:56 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1263 * gtype.c (g_type_conforms_to): this function basically behaves like
1264 and is_a check, except that it _additionally_ features interfaces
1265 for instantiatable types. enforce this in the second branch as well
1266 (`type' conforms_to `type') even if `type' is not an interface type.
1268 Fri Oct 20 15:31:04 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1270 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: added G_TYPE_POINTER implementation from jrb.
1274 * gvaluetypes.c: added GTypeValueTable.value_peek_pointer and
1275 suitable implementations of this for G_TYPE_STRING, G_TYPE_OBJECT
1278 Mon Aug 21 04:13:37 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1280 * gbsearcharray.[hc]: long standing needed generic implementation
1281 of a binary searchable, sorted and dynamically sized array.
1283 2000-10-15 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
1285 * Makefile.am (BUILT_EXTRA_DIST): New variable.
1286 (dist-hook): Handle $(BUILT_EXTRA_DIST).
1287 (*): Remove traces of @STRIP_{BEGIN,END}@.
1289 2000-09-29 Martin Baulig <baulig@suse.de>
1291 Several minor ANSI C fixes.
1293 Added missing casts:
1294 * gtype.c (type_class_init):
1295 `(gpointer) bnode->data->class.class_init_base'
1296 in call to g_slist_prepend() and
1297 'GBaseInitFunc class_init_base = (GBaseInitFunc) slist->data'.
1299 * gobject.c: Put text following #endif into comments.
1301 2000-09-25 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
1303 * Makefile.am: Remove empty SUBDIRS line, as that prevents make
1306 Sat Sep 9 20:04:13 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
1308 * gobject.c (g_object_last_unref): Move call to
1309 g_type_free_instance() here from g_object_do_finalize,
1310 since g_type_free_instance() can unload the object's
1313 2000-07-27 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
1315 * gobject.c: No, don't mark glib_debug_objects for export here,
1316 it's handled specially in gtktypeutils.c.
1318 * gobject.def: Export g_type_fundamental_last (the function).
1320 2000-07-26 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
1323 * gobject.c: Mark glib_debug_objects for export/import as it is
1326 Sun Jul 23 17:23:35 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1328 * gtype.[hc]: make g_type_fundamental_last() a function, avoiding all
1329 that extern variable clutter and avoiding further problems with thread
1332 2000-07-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
1337 * gtype.c: Shut up Sun's picky compiler.
1339 2000-07-14 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
1341 * gobject.def: Add g_type_get_plugin.
1343 Thu Jul 13 02:07:54 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1345 * gparam.c (g_param_value_defaults): default initialize the temporary
1346 default value, instead of nuking the caller's value contents.
1348 2000-07-11 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
1350 * gtype.c (g_type_get_plugin): Don't return just 0 or 1.
1352 Tue Jul 11 02:48:13 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1354 * gtype.[hc]: removed g_type_is_dynamic() and added g_type_get_plugin().
1356 2000-07-10 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
1358 * gobject-query.c: Include ../config.h for HAVE_UNISTD_H. Use it
1359 to guard inclusion of <unistd.h>.
1361 * gtype.h: Fix copy-paste errors in the ifdefs on how to declare a
1362 variable for export. Call the macro GOBJECT_VAR.
1364 * gtype.c: Declare _g_type_fundamental_last for export here, too.
1365 (type_node_any_new): Use only constant expressions for sizeof
1366 operator (for instance MSVC requires this).
1368 * makefile.mingw.in: Define GOBJECT_COMPILATION.
1370 Sun Jul 9 21:21:46 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
1372 * genums.c: Move string.h include into the .c file
1373 instead of where it was in the .h file by mistake.
1375 Thu Jul 6 15:30:27 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
1377 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): dist fixes.
1379 * gobject.c: Add a global variable glib_debug_objects
1380 (not in header file) to control object tracing.
1382 2000-07-01 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
1384 * gobject.def: Update added and renamed entry points.
1386 * makefile.mingw.in: Add gvaluetypes.o.
1388 Thu Jun 29 16:02:07 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
1390 * gobject.c:include string.h for memset
1391 * genums.h: include string.h for strcpy
1392 * gvalue.c: include string.h for memset, memcpy.
1394 Sat Jun 24 23:03:04 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1396 * gtype.[hc]: provide G_TYPE_CHAR, G_TYPE_UCHAR, G_TYPE_BOOLEAN,
1397 G_TYPE_INT, G_TYPE_UINT, G_TYPE_LONG, G_TYPE_ULONG, G_TYPE_FLOAT,
1398 G_TYPE_DOUBLE and G_TYPE_STRING fundamental types.
1399 added a GTypeValueTable* pointer to GTypeInfo structure for types
1400 to implement GValue handling functions.
1401 GTypeValueTable contains the following members:
1402 value_init(): initialize a GValue structure.
1403 value_free(): free GValue structure contents (optional).
1404 value_copy(): copy one GValue contents to another GValue structure of
1405 collect_type: varargs collection type for the first variable argument
1406 to be collected by collect_value().
1407 collect_value(): variable arguments collection function (optional).
1408 lcopy_type: varargs collection type for the first variable argument
1409 to be location copyied by lcopy_value().
1410 lcopy_value(): variable arguments location copy function (optional).
1411 g_type_value_table_peek(): new function to retrive the GTypeValueTable*
1412 for a type node. ValueTables get inherited from parent types, unless
1413 overridden through the GTypeInfo structure. internally, GTypeValueTable
1414 support means an added overhead of one pointer per static or used
1416 g_type_add_class_cache_func(): provide a cache_func/data pair to be
1417 called prior to a type nodes last_unref() function, this can be used
1418 to prevent premature class destruction. multiple installed cache_func()
1419 will be chained upon last_unref() untill one of them returns TRUE.
1420 the cache_func()s have to check the class id passed in to figure whether
1421 they actually want to cache the class of this type (since all classes
1422 are routed through the cache_func() chain).
1423 g_type_remove_class_cache_func(): remove a previously installed
1424 cache_func/data pair. the cache maintained by this function has to be
1425 clear when calling g_type_remove_class_cache_func() to avoid leaks.
1426 g_type_class_unref_uncached(): class unref function for cache_func()
1427 implementations, unreferences a class omitting the cache chain (and
1428 therefore unref->cache->unref->... loops).
1430 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: provide the value setters/getters for the primitive
1431 fundamental types boolean, char, uchar, int, uint, long, ulong, float,
1434 * gvalue.[hc]: provide G_TYPE_IS_VALUE() in terms of whether a
1435 GTypeValueTable is provided for this type.
1436 removed g_value_init_default(), g_value_validate(), g_value_defaults(),
1437 g_value_set_default() and g_values_cmp() as these are supplied by the
1439 moved g_values_exchange() into the "implementation details" section,
1440 since it just provides the underlying functionality for
1443 * gvaluecollector.h: renamed the varargs value container from
1444 GParamCValue to GTypeCValue as the value collection methods are
1445 supplied by the type system now.
1446 G_PARAM_COLLECT_VALUE() and G_PARAM_LCOPY_VALUE() got renamed to
1447 G_VALUE_COLLECT() and G_VALUE_LCOPY() and operate without a
1448 GParamSpec structure now.
1450 * genums.h: macros cleanups/fixes.
1452 * genum.c: provide G_TYPE_ENUM and G_TYPE_FLAGS type
1453 and assorted g_value_{s|g}et_{enum|flags}() implementations.
1456 provide G_IS_VALUE_OBJECT(), G_TYPE_OBJECT ValueTable methods
1457 and g_value_{s|g}et_object().
1459 * gparam.[hc]: reduced class to value_set_default(),
1460 value_validate() and values_cmp(). also parameters now need to fill
1461 in a GType value_type; field to indicate the GValue type they
1462 are handling. provide g_param_value_set_default(),
1463 g_param_value_defaults(), g_param_value_validate() and
1464 g_param_values_cmp().
1466 * gparamspecs.[hc]: got rid of the g_value_* functions and
1467 the G_IS_VALUE_* macros. adapted param spec implementations
1468 according to the GParamSpecClass changes.
1470 Sat Jun 10 08:38:27 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1472 * gtype.c (type_class_init): fetch the nth iface entry of the
1473 type node in the nth loop iteration, not alwys the first.
1474 bug discovered by Walt Pohl <cher@suitware.com>.
1475 (type_data_finalize_class_ifaces): same here, cut and paste
1478 Wed Jun 7 09:21:05 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
1480 * Makefile.am (INCLUDES): Add top_builddir so glibconfig.h
1481 is found properly when build srcdir != builddir. (Patch from
1484 2000-05-13 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
1488 * gobject.rc.in: New files, for Win32 (mingw) build.
1490 * Makefile.am: Add to EXTRA_DIST. Add rules to produce the
1491 corresponding non-*.in files.
1493 * gtype.h: (Win32:) Mark _g_type_fundamental_last for
1494 export/import from DLL.
1496 Fri May 5 01:15:48 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1498 * gtype.h: add reserved fundamental ids for gtk types (for transition
1499 time). added G_TYPE_FUNDAMENTAL_MAX for gtk.
1501 Mon Apr 17 20:45:50 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1503 * glib-gobject.c (g_object_base_class_finalize): oops, don't unset
1504 n_params prior to destructing them.
1506 Tue Apr 11 04:28:10 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1508 * fixed a couple of bugs in the initial parameter/object
1509 implementations, after getting beast running on GObject and GValue.
1511 Fri Apr 7 04:27:49 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1513 * glib-gobject.[hc]: completed parameter set/get implementations,
1514 along with asyncronous parameter changed notification queue.
1516 Sun Apr 2 04:54:36 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1518 * glib-gobject.[hc]: GObject implementation, that is facilities
1519 for setting/getting quarked data and reference counting.
1521 * glib-gparamspecs.[hc]: first actuall parameter implementations
1522 for GLib, so far we have: char, uchar, bool, int, uint, long,
1523 ulong, enum, flags, float, double, string and object. each of these
1524 GParamSpecs is a new instantiatable type in its own respect,
1525 so the .c file derives 13 new types from G_TYPE_PARAM and
1526 defines over 50 (*2) conversion facilities.
1528 * glib-gvaluecollector.h: generic varargs handling stubs for
1529 GParamSpecs, private header file (does get installed for
1530 inclusion into user code though).
1532 * glib-gvalue.[hc]: GValue functionality implementation.
1534 * glib-gparam.[hc]: basis GParamSpec implementation for
1535 the virtual base type G_TYPE_PARAM.
1537 * glib-genums.[hc]: enum/flags type implementation, based on
1540 * glib-gtype.[hc]: GLib Type System implementation, heavily
1541 based on BSE's dynamic type system.
