1 Thu May 3 06:10:23 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
3 * gobject.c (g_object_set_[q]data_full): Make types of ternary
4 operator correspond. (Fixes compilation errors with Sun CC,
7 Mon Apr 30 20:03:56 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
9 * glib-mkenums (usage): removed \v escaping, newer perl versions don't
10 support this, and it'S probably useless anyways.
12 Sat Apr 28 23:39:42 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
14 * gsignal.[hc]: made signal handler and emission hook ids gulongs.
15 (signal_handlers_foreach_matched_R): only invoke callback for handlers
16 that are not disconnected (id>0).
17 (signal_emit_R): prevent invocation of signal handlers during the
18 emission they were connected within.
20 * glib-mkenums: publically installed perl-script to parse C code
21 enums and generate descriptions thereof.
22 * glib-mkenums.1: assorted man page.
24 2001-04-19 Havoc Pennington <hp@redhat.com>
26 * gobject.c (g_object_get_valist): We were returning junk memory
27 here, because we didn't copy the value (G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS
28 passed to G_VALUE_LCOPY) and then we freed the GValue immediately
29 after. Removed G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS from here; need a
30 G_VALUE_STEAL_CONTENTS or the like if we want this optimization.
32 Wed Apr 18 09:46:56 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
34 * gobject.c gsignal.c: Change C++ comments for FIXME's to
35 C comments. (Patch from Andres Salomon)
37 2001-04-14 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>
39 * gobject.def : updated
41 Mon Apr 9 18:56:15 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
43 * gclosure.c (g_closure_invoke): only require marshal/meta_marshal if
44 we're valid (about to actually do marshalling).
46 Tue Apr 3 20:23:24 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
50 Tue Apr 3 14:06:00 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
52 * gparam.[hc]: added g_param_spec_pool_list() to list pspecs per
53 owner_type. the pspecs are not referenced, so the caller is
54 supposed to have some idea about owner_type not randomly
55 nuking his pspec's. if this is going to provide problems in
56 the future, we can either auto-ref the pspecs, or add a
57 _foreach variant, though the latter would have to invoke
58 the callback while pspec's mutex is acquired, so i just
59 went for the _list variant for now.
61 * gclosure.h (G_CALLBACK): made GCallback a void (*) (void) fucntion.
63 Sat Mar 31 23:55:58 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
66 * gparamspecs.[hc]: applied patch from owen to implement
69 Fri Mar 30 07:34:02 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
71 * gtype.c (type_iface_retrive_holder_info_Wm):
72 * gtypeplugin.c (g_type_plugin_complete_interface_info):
73 * gtypemodule.c (g_type_module_complete_interface_info):
74 change order of instance_type and interface_type so they match
75 the g_type_add_interface_*() API.
77 * gsignal.c (g_signal_emit_valist): always assign C return value
78 location, people depending on unaltered return values after emissions
79 that had no handlers to run need to use g_signal_emitv().
81 * gtype.[hc] (g_type_query): new function to allow querying of
82 class and object size (semantics like g_signal_query()).
83 currently the implementation is better held conservative so as to
84 only support types that are classed and static.
86 2001-03-29 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
88 * gobject.def: Updates.
90 Wed Mar 28 17:04:06 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
92 * gobject.c (object_queue_property): only queue readable properties
93 for notification changes.
95 Thu Mar 22 13:36:50 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
97 * gsignal.c (g_signal_newv): catch G_SIGNAL_RUN_FIRST with a return value.
99 2001-03-21 Martin Baulig <baulig@suse.de>
101 * gboxed.[ch] (g_value_dup_boxed): This takes a `const GValue *'
104 2001-03-18 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
106 * gobject.def: Correct some renamed functions.
108 Sat Mar 17 23:18:36 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
110 * gobject.c (g_object_get_property): minor bug-fix.
112 * gbsearcharray.[hc]: provide a macro for static initialization and
113 functions g_bsearch_array_new() and g_bsearch_array_destroy() for
116 * gboxed.c: introduce G_TYPE_GSTRING, boxed type for GString.
118 * gclosure.[hc]: naming corrections.
120 Fri Mar 9 16:42:08 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
122 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: moved g_strdup_value_contents() into this file as
123 a public function (was static in gobject.c before). it's a bit odd
124 to have that function here, especially since it requires extra includes,
125 but then it doesn't very well fit somewhere else either.
127 * gparamspecs.c: added default/max/min checks to param spec creation
130 2001-03-10 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
132 * gobject.def: Add a couple of missing entries.
134 * Makefile.am (libgobject_1_3_la_LIBADD): Use only on Win32.
136 Fri Mar 9 14:57:17 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
138 * testgruntime.c: test program. covers run first/last/cleanup signal
139 handlers, return value accumulator, signal string returns, and
140 interface types in signal arguments.
142 * gtype.c (g_type_value_table_peek): for interface types without
143 value table, try looking up a value table from an instantiatable
144 prerequisite type (this is safe as an interface may only have
145 one instantiatable prerequisiste).
146 (type_check_is_value_type_U): same here.
148 * gsignal.c (g_signal_newv): assert that return types never have
149 G_SIGNAL_TYPE_STATIC_SCOPE set.
150 (g_signal_newc): only create class closure if the class_offset is not
153 Fri Mar 9 10:14:00 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
155 * gparamspecs.c (g_param_spec_object): use g_type_is_a() to check
156 for object_type being a G_TYPE_OBJECT, not G_TYPE_IS_OBJECT(), since
157 that wouldn't allow interface types.
159 * gtype.c (g_type_interface_add_prerequisite): arg, fixed small cnp bug
160 with bad implications and an off-by-one error.
162 Thu Mar 8 16:34:22 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
164 * gvaluetransform.c: Include <string.h> for memcpy.
166 * gvaluetransform.c (DEFINE_SPRINTF): Remove unnecessary
167 and ANSI-illegal ## token pasting.
169 Thu Mar 8 18:11:52 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
171 * gsignal.c: eek, fixed old hook detail storage code.
173 Thu Mar 8 16:35:48 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
175 * gparamspecs.[hc]: s/g_param_spec_string_c/g_param_spec_stringc/.
177 * gsignal.[hc]: fixed accumulator invocation, implemented emission
178 hooks. and no, neither of these callbacks are called via a closure,
179 language bindings can wrap the accumulator and emission hook
180 interface, they already get parameters marshalled into a GValue array.
181 (g_signal_connect): removed this function as its C specific, doesn't
182 cover the swapped argument, is too close to its broken original
183 gtk_signal_connect() and creates demand for _swapped, _after and
184 _swapped_after variants <brrr>.
185 (g_signal_connectc): convenience macro to connect a C handler
186 func with data, like the old g_signal_connect() plus swapped
190 * gboxed.c: added G_TYPE_VALUE boxed type.
192 Wed Mar 7 19:02:51 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
194 * gtype.c (type_node_add_iface_entry_W): catch when adding an interface
195 to an ancestor of a child that already conforms to this interface.
196 currently we spew a warning here, should we be silent?
197 (g_type_interface_add_prerequisite): new function to add a prerequisite
198 type to an interface, that must succeed an instance is_a prerequisite
199 type check before the interface can be added to an instance. the
200 prerequisite types are also suuported in is_a checks of the interface.
201 (g_type_instance_is_a):
202 (g_type_check_instance_cast):
203 (g_type_check_instance): cleanups and optimizations.
205 (g_type_check_class_cast): same, also prevented these from accepting
206 interface types, as class structures don't nest interfaces.
208 2001-03-07 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
210 * Makefile.am: Avoid rebuilding everything everytime.
212 Wed Mar 7 09:36:33 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
214 * gboxed.[hc]: changed prototype of g_boxed_type_register_static()
215 to contain an optional init function and a hint at whether the
216 boxed structure uses ref counting internally.
217 added g_value_set_boxed_take_ownership().
218 made G_TYPE_BOXED an abstract value type.
220 * genums.[hc]: made G_TYPE_ENUM and G_TYPE_FLAGS abstract value
223 * glib-genmarshal.c: argument type changes, preparation for third-party
226 * gobject.[hc]: cleaned up get/set property code.
227 added g_strdup_value_contents() to improve warnings.
229 * gparam.[hc]: added g_param_value_convert(), taking over responsibility
230 of the old g_value_convert(). added G_PARAM_LAX_VALIDATION flag so
231 validation alterations may be valid a part of the property setting
234 * gparamspecs.[hc]: made value comparisons stable (for sort applications).
235 added GParamSpecValueArray, a param spec for value arrays and
236 GParamSpecClosure. nuked the value exchange functions and
239 * gtype.[hc]: catch unintialized usages of the type system with
240 g_return_val_if_uninitialized(). introduced G_TYPE_FLAG_VALUE_ABSTRACT
241 to flag types that introduce a value table, but can't be used for
242 g_value_init(). cleaned up reserved type ids.
244 * gvalue.[hc]: code cleanups and saner checking.
245 nuked the value exchange API. implemented value transformations, we
246 can't really "convert" values, rather transforms are an anylogy to
247 C casts, real conversions need a param spec for validation, which is
248 why g_param_value_convert() does real conversions now.
250 * gvaluearray.[hc]: new files that implement a GValueArray, a struct
251 that can hold inhomogeneous arrays of value (to that extend that it
252 also allowes undefined values, i.e. G_VALUE_TYPE(value)==0).
253 this is exposed to the type system as a boxed type.
255 * gvaluetransform.c: new file implementing most of the former value
256 exchange functions as single-sided transformations.
258 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: nuked G_TYPE_CCALLBACK, added
259 g_value_set_string_take_ownership().
261 * *.h: s/G_IS_VALUE_/G_VALUE_HOLDS_/.
263 * *.[hc]: many fixes and cleanups.
265 * many warning improvements.
267 Tue Feb 27 18:35:15 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
269 * gobject.c (g_object_get_valist): urg, pass G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS
270 into G_VALUE_LCOPY(), this needs proper documenting.
272 * gparam.c: fixed G_PARAM_USER_MASK.
274 * gtype.c (type_data_make_W):
275 (type_data_last_unref_Wm): fixed invalid memory freeing.
277 * gobject.c (g_object_last_unref): destroy signal handlers associated
278 with object, right before finalization.
280 * gsignal.c (g_signal_parse_name): catch destroyed nodes or signals
281 that don't actually support details.
283 * gobject.[hc]: got rid of property trailers. nuked GObject
284 properties "data" and the "signal" variants.
285 (g_object_connect): new convenience function to do multiple
286 signal connections at once.
287 (g_object_disconnect): likewise, for disconnections.
289 * gparam.[hc] (g_param_spec_pool_lookup): took out trailer support.
291 * gvalue.[hc]: marked g_value_fits_pointer() and g_value_peek_pointer()
292 as private (the latter got renamed from g_value_get_as_pointer()).
294 2001-02-21 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
296 * *.h: Use G_BEGIN_DECLS and G_END_DECLS.
298 * Makefile.am: Use libglib-1.3.la from top_builddir. Invoke
299 libtool with -no-undefined for Win32 and Cygwin.
301 Wed Feb 21 18:31:46 2001 Jonathan Blandford <jrb@redhat.com>
303 * gsignal.h (g_signal_connect): Add g_signal_connect define to
304 make porting from gtk_signal_connect easy.
306 * gsignal.c (g_signal_emit_valist): Use G_TYPE_FROM_INSTANCE
307 (instance) instead of node->itype when initting the value.
309 2001-02-17 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>
311 Applied patch from Soeren Sandmann:
313 * gvaluetypes.c (g_value_get_string): G_CONST_RETURN
315 * gtype.c (g_type_name): G_CONST_RETURN
317 * gsignal.c (g_signal_name): G_CONST_RETURN
319 * gobject-query.c (main): const fix
321 Sat Feb 17 07:58:46 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
323 * genums.h (G_TYPE_IS_FLAGS): patch from sven to fixup
324 G_ENUM_CLASS_TYPE() macro.
326 Sat Feb 17 04:55:35 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
328 * gtype.[hc]: changed collect_format, collect_value() and lcopy_format,
329 lcopy_value() in the GTypeValueTable. the collect functions are now
330 called only once per value, collect_format/lcopy_format are strings
331 that enlist all necessary GTypeCValues to be varargs-collected.
333 * gvalue.h: ranamed STATIC_TAG to G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS to indicate that
334 a value shouldn't copy its contents.
336 * gvaluecollector.h: changed G_VALUE_COLLECT() and G_VALUE_LCOPY()
337 macros to carry an additional argument (flags) that can be used
338 to pass G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS along to the collection functions.
340 * *.c: adapted collect_value() and lcopy_value() functions to the new
341 prototypes, support G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS where apropriate.
343 * gsignal.[hc]: introduced a G_SIGNAL_TYPE_STATIC_SCOPE flag that can
344 be passed along (ORed) with the parameter types, indicating that the
345 emission arguments are to be considered static for the scope of the
346 emission. should be used with care and only if the caller knows that
347 a parameter cannot be destroyed/freed from signal handlers connected
350 Fri Feb 16 07:10:44 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
354 (g_closure_sink): make closure sinking explicit.
357 (g_signal_connect_data):
358 (g_signal_connect_closure):
359 (g_signal_connect_closure_by_id):
360 (g_signal_newv): perform explicit closure sinking.
362 Thu Feb 8 00:31:45 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
364 * gtype.h: added G_TYPE_DEBUG_NONE for/from Eric Lemings ;)
366 2001-02-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
368 * gobject.def: Remove glib_debug_objects.
370 Sun Feb 4 07:30:53 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
372 * gtype.[hc]: changed g_type_init() to take debugging flags
373 initially, a combination of G_TYPE_DEBUG_OBJECTS and
374 G_TYPE_DEBUG_SIGNALS. using the G_TYPE_ prefix is a bit odd
375 here, but basically g_type_int() serves as initialization
376 fucntion for all of GType, GObject, GSignal, so what the heck.
378 * gobject.c: special case debugging code properly.
379 changed glib_trap_object_ref to g_trap_object_ref.
381 * gsignal.c: add signal emission debugging abilities, along with
382 a new trap object g_trap_instance_signals.
384 2001-02-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
386 * Makefile.am (progs_LDADD): Change order of libs to libgobject
387 first, then libglib. Needed for cygwin, says jbdoll@kepri.re.kr.
389 Wed Jan 31 06:19:49 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
391 * gparam.h: gtk-doc sucks for not dealing with #define inside enums.
393 * gtype.[hc]: added G_TYPE_FLAG_RESERVED_ID_BIT, a bit in the type
394 number that's supposed to be left untouched (preserved mainly
395 for the signal code).
397 * *.c: added thread safety code, based on an old patch from sebastian.
398 the remaining thread safety issues are now datalists on pspecs (to be
399 solved im gdataset.c) and gvalue.c where locking concerns value exchange
400 functionality only, and that's soon to be revised.
402 2001-01-27 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
404 * makefile.msc.in: Don't try to compile gmarshal.c on its own.
406 2001-01-24 <alexl@redhat.com>
408 * gclosure.c (g_closure_unref):
409 Don't leak closure->notifiers.
411 2001-01-05 Havoc Pennington <hp@redhat.com>
413 * gparamspecs.c (g_param_spec_enum): set the value_type in the
414 param spec; closes bug 40210
415 (g_param_spec_flags): ditto for flags
417 2001-01-03 Alexander Larsson <alexl@redhat.com>
420 Move glib_debug_objects out of the G_ENABLE_DEBUG #ifdef.
422 Thu Dec 28 11:36:44 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
424 * gbsearcharray.c (upper_power2): disable G_BSEARCH_ALIGN_POWER2
425 fucntionality if DISABLE_MEM_POOLS is defined.
427 * gtype.c: honour DISABLE_MEM_POOLS.
429 * gsignal.c (g_signal_init): flag signal key bsearch array with
430 G_BSEARCH_ALIGN_POWER2 to avoid excessive growth time. honour
433 * gparam.h: added G_PARAM_READWRITE alias for (G_PARAM_READABLE |
436 2000-12-15 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
438 * gobject.def: Update.
440 2000-12-15 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>
442 * gobject.c (g_object_do_class_init): use g_signal_newc
444 * gsignal.c (g_signal_newc): convenience function for signals
446 (g_signal_new_valist): added
447 (g_signal_new): removed
449 Fri Dec 15 04:40:23 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
451 * gparam.[hc]: add an instance member value_type so the default
452 value of the pspec class can be overridden.
454 2000-12-14 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
456 * makefile.mingw.in: Update, include parts from Makefile.am to
457 build gmarshal.[ch]. Some day, we won't need these separate
458 makefiles for Win32 compilation. I hope.
460 * makefile.msc.in: Update. No use trying to build gmarshal.[ch]
461 here, it would require Unixish tools. MSVC users building from CVS
462 sources are out of luck.
464 * gobject.def: Update.
466 Wed Dec 13 09:31:26 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
468 * gparamspecs.[hc]: add G_TYPE_PARAM_BOXED implementation.
470 * gobject.[hc]: minor fixes.
472 Tue Dec 12 23:38:02 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
474 * Makefile.am: _never_ touch oldest-source-stamp.
476 * gobject.[hc]: construct property handling fixes/improvements.
477 fixed trailer handling in get/set property.
479 * gparam.[hc]: implement param spec pool, got rid of param spec
480 hashtable. the most prominent change is that e deal with type
483 2000-12-12 Elliot Lee <sopwith@redhat.com>
486 . You have to 'touch oldest-source-stamp' if you want to avoid having
487 the Makefile constantly rebuild itself.
488 . Fix marshaller generation rules to work with srcdir != builddir
489 (there were issues with trying to run "./glib-genmarshal", etc.)
491 Mon Dec 11 04:44:11 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
493 * gboxed.c: fixed dealing with collection/lcopy of NULL values.
495 * gclosure.h: removed insane ramblings, added G_CALLBACK() a casting
498 * Makefile.am: cleanups, marshaller generation rules.
500 * gmarshal.[hc]: new files with GRuntime standard marshallers.
502 * glib-genmarshal.c: fix log domain, support gruntime standard
503 marshallers, suport G_TYPE_PARAM, come with extern "C" and
506 * glib-genmarshal.1: reflect glib-genmarshal.c updates.
508 * gobject.[hc]: implement object constructor. rework parameter
509 changed notification queueing, we support queue freezes now and
510 don't dispatch from an idle handler anymore.
511 parameter->property rename hassle.
512 implemented ::properties_changed and ::notify::* signals for
513 property change notification (the later supports property names
514 as details). added signal connection and named data properties.
515 (g_signal_connect_object): new function to setup while_alive
517 (g_object_class_install_property): sink properties now, since they
518 are initially floating.
519 (g_object_steal_data):
520 (g_object_set_data_full):
522 (g_object_get_data): set/get data by using g_datalist_*() functions
524 (g_object_queue_param_changed): nuked.
525 (g_object_freeze_notify): start queueing of property changes (freeze/
527 (g_object_notify): announce changes of a certain property directly.
528 (g_object_thaw_notify): process queue of property changes, therefore
529 emitting GObject::notify::detail with detail being the changed
531 (G_OBJECT_WARN_INVALID_PROPERTY_ID): saner macro variant of former
532 G_WARN_INVALID_PARAM_ID().
534 * gparam.[hc]: param specs are now initially floating and need to be
535 sunken with g_param_spec_sink(), support G_TYPE_PARAM values.
536 added G_PARAM_CONSTRUCT and G_PARAM_CONSTRUCT_ONLY parameter flags,
537 required by GObjectClass.constructor().
539 * gparamspecs.[hc]: added GParamSpecParam, GParamSpecPointer and
540 GParamSpecCCallback, param specs for G_TYPE_PARAM, G_TYPE_POINTER
541 and G_TYPE_CCALLBACK respectively.
543 * gsignal.[hc]: cleanups.
544 (signal_id_lookup): after walking the anchestry, try interfaces as well.
545 (g_signal_new): new function to create signals from varargs type list.
546 (g_signal_connect_closure): closure connection variant that works from
548 (g_signal_connect_data): c handler connection variant that works from
550 (g_signal_emit_valist): emit signal for an instance with paraneters
551 collected from a va_list.
552 (g_signal_emit): emit signal, taking parameters from varargs list.
553 (g_signal_emit_by_name): same as g_signal_emit, working from
555 (signal_emit_R): return whether return_value needs to be altered.
557 * gtype.[hc]: set log-domain to GRuntime, i'm slowly getting to all
558 the points that need to reflect the upcoming rename.
559 melt g_type_conforms_to() functionality into g_type_is_a(), as that
560 is what we really want (liskov substitution principle).
561 assorted changes to other files due to conforms_to->is_a.
563 * gvalue.[hc]: implemented g_value_set_instance() that sets a value
564 from an instantiatable type via the value_table's collect_value()
565 function (based on an idea from James Henstridge <james@daa.com.au>).
568 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: implement G_TYPE_CCALLBACK and G_TYPE_PARAM.
570 Wed Nov 29 13:30:05 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
572 * gsignal.c (handlers_find): fix elliots "logic fix" that dereferences
573 NULL nodes if C handlers are searched for specific signals.
575 2000-11-28 Elliot Lee <sopwith@redhat.com>
577 * gsignal.c: Fix warnings about possible use of uninitialized
578 variables, and fix logic that would leave 'node' unset in cases
579 that it might be used in.
581 * glib-genmarshal.c: Fix warning about printf format.
583 2000-11-28 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
585 * gboxed.c: Include <string.h> for memset ().
587 2000-11-22 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
589 * gobject.def: Update.
591 2000-11-20 Havoc Pennington <hp@redhat.com>
593 * gobject.c (g_object_get_data)
595 (g_object_set_data_full)
596 (g_object_steal_data): More convenient data-setting functions
598 Wed Nov 15 20:58:05 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
600 * gtypemodule.c (g_type_module_use): If loading the
601 module fails, don't increment the use count.
603 Thu Nov 9 01:49:43 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
605 * gobject.h (G_WARN_INVALID_PARAM_ID): doh,
606 s/BSE_OBJECT_TYPE_NAME/G_OBJECT_TYPE_NAME/; reported by Maas-Maarten
607 Zeeman <maas@wanadoo.nl>.
609 Mon Nov 13 00:48:39 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
611 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add glib-genmarshal.1
613 2000-11-11 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
615 * gtypemodule.c: Include stdlib.h for exit().
617 * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in (gobject_OBJECTS): Add gtypemodule.
619 * gobject.def: Add missing functions.
621 Sun Nov 5 13:21:28 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
623 * Makefile.am gtypemodule.[ch]: New basic implementation of
624 GTypePlugin interface as a GObject. Dynamically loaded modules can
625 register any number of types and interface on the module.
627 Sun Nov 5 10:25:40 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
629 * gsignal.c (handlers_find): When appending handlers and
630 not matching on signal_id, use hlist->signal_id instead of
631 signal_id. Having the correct signal_id when unreffing
632 the handlers makes things work a lot better.
634 2000-11-05 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
636 * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in (gobject_OBJECTS): Add gtypeplugin.
638 * gobject.def: Update.
640 Sun Nov 5 05:22:55 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
643 fixed a bag full of subtle bugs of immensive screw-up potential in
644 handlers_find(), luckily no one found out about them yet ;)
645 fixed signal_handlers_foreach_matched_R() so it operates on an
646 initial handler list snapshot provided by handlers_find() to work
647 around general reentrancy problems and to avoid multiple callback()
648 invocations on the same handlers.
649 this code is now officially 80% bug free (10% remaining for interface
650 types, and 10% remaining for destroyed signals ;)
652 Sat Nov 4 02:01:33 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
654 * gsignal.c (_g_signals_destroy): valid signal nodes start out at 1.
656 * gtypeplugin.[hc]: new files holding a GTypePlugin interface
657 implementation that provides the API required by GType to deal with
658 dynamically loadable types.
660 * gtype.[hc]: displace any GTypePlugin business to gtypeplugin.h.
662 Fri Nov 3 07:35:00 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
664 * gsignal.[hc]: prefix internal functions with '_'. renamed
665 g_signal_connect_closure() to g_signal_connect_closure_by_id().
666 added g_signal_parse_name() to retrive signal_id and detail quark
667 from a signal name (internal).
669 Wed Nov 1 03:36:54 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
671 * gobject.c (g_object_base_class_finalize): destroy all signals that
672 the finalized obejct type introduced.
674 * gsignal.c (g_signals_destroy): don't require itype to have
677 * gobject.c (g_object_do_finalize): make sure all signal handlers
681 (g_signal_handler_find): only match on non-0 masks.
682 (g_signal_handlers_block_matched):
683 (g_signal_handlers_unblock_matched):
684 (g_signal_handlers_disconnect_matched): new functions to block/unblock
685 or disconnect handlers in groups.
687 2000-10-30 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
689 * gvalue.c (exchange_entries_equal), gparam.c (param_spec_equals):
690 made both functions return gboolean just for the little extra
691 standard conformance now that GEqualFunc is introduced.
693 Mon Oct 30 05:52:45 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
695 * gsignal.c (g_signal_list_ids): get rid of inline documentation owen
696 added, the doc system would ignore it anyways (for some reason not
699 Mon Oct 30 03:00:07 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
701 * gsignal.[hc] (g_signal_list_ids): renamed owen's g_type_signals(),
702 added required mutex locks.
704 Sun Oct 29 02:31:03 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
706 * gsignal.c (g_type_signals): Fix problem where signals
707 with "_" in them appeared twice in the result array.
709 Sun Oct 29 01:58:44 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
711 * gsignal.h: Add g_type_signals() - a function to list
712 all signals for a given type.
714 Sat Oct 28 00:28:09 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
716 * gclosure.c (g_closure_add_marshal_guards): fixed notifier position
717 for post_marshal guard which was off at 0.
719 Fri Oct 27 21:49:31 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
721 * gobject.[hc]: doh, fix argument order in for
722 g_cclosure_new_object_swap and g_cclosure_new_object.
724 2000-10-28 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
726 * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in: Make glib-genmarshal.exe.
728 * glib-genmarshal.c: Conditionalise include of unistd.h.
729 Include <io.h> on Win32.
731 * gobject.def: Add some missing entry points.
733 Fri Oct 27 16:33:41 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
735 * gsignal.[hc]: publically define GSignalInvocationHint structure
736 that gets passed in to closure invocations. added signal details.
737 renamed GSignalType to GSignalFlags to comply with conventions.
738 quite some cleanups and minor fixes. avoid uneccessary handler list
739 walks upon invokation of after handlers. relookup handler list for
740 restarted emissions. preliminary abort normal handler invokation if
741 after handler is encountered.
744 * gclosure.[hc]: moved invocation_hint to the end of the
745 g_closure_invoke() arguments as sugegsted by kenelson.
746 also made it a gpointer to be more generic. the invocation_hint
747 is a caller specific thing that can be used to pass additional
748 data in to closure invocations as documented with the caller
749 invoking the closure.
751 Fri Oct 27 05:35:14 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
753 * gobject.c (g_object_watch_closure): fixed realloc bug, reported
756 * gsignal.c (g_signal_newv): fixed deadlock scenarion where
757 g_signal_lookup() would be called with the signal lock being
758 held. reported by james henstridge.
760 * gclosure.c (g_closure_set_meta_marshal): fixed memcpy/overwrite bug
763 2000-10-26 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
765 * gbsearcharray.c (bsearch_array_insert): Fix gccisms (pointer
766 arithmetic on void pointer, label without statement following.
768 * gtype.c (type_node_fundamental_info): Don't apply unary minus to
769 result of sizeof operator, it can be unsigned. Cast first to
772 * gobject.def: Add new functions.
774 * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in: Add new objects.
776 2000-10-26 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
778 * Makefile.am: Remove empty SUBDIRS line _again_, as that _still_
779 prevents 'make dist' from working.
781 Wed Oct 25 19:11:03 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
783 * gbsearcharray.h (g_bsearch_array_get_nth): Don't use implicit
784 casts from void * since this will get included from C++ too
787 Thu Oct 26 00:30:27 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
789 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: added g_value_set_static_string().
791 * gboxed.[hc]: const corrections. added g_value_set_static_boxed().
793 Wed Oct 25 20:27:02 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
795 * gtype.c (g_type_free_instance): for the moment, freeing object
796 structures will fill their memory portion with 0xAA. there's a
797 FIXME there, remove this line at a later point.
799 Tue Oct 24 23:10:26 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
802 * glib-genmarshal.c: added publically installed marshaller generator.
804 * gtype.h: added G_TYPE_INSTANCE_GET_INTERFACE() to retrive a certain
805 interface VTable from instances.
807 Mon Oct 23 08:28:15 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
809 * gobject.[hc]: new functions for closure maintenance:
810 (g_object_watch_closure): maintain validity of the object and
811 the closure for objects that are used as data part of a closure.
812 (g_cclosure_new_object): convenience function to create C closures
813 that have an object as data argument.
814 (g_closure_new_object): convenience function to create closures
815 that have an object as data argument.
817 * gclosure.[hc]: implementation of GClosure mechanism.
818 a closure is basically an encapsulation of a callback function
819 and its environment. ideally, most places supporting callback
820 functions will simply take a GClosure* pointer and thus unify
821 callback environments wrg destroy notification etc.
822 GClosure provides destroy notifiers for arbitrary data pointers,
823 reference counting, invalidation notification (it can be invalidated
824 which is merely a deactivate state) and a marshallinbg abstraction.
825 GCClosure is also provided in these files, they present a specialized
826 GClosure implementation for C language callbacks.
828 * genum.c: macro cleanups.
830 * gboxed.[hc]: new files, for boxed type abstraction.
831 (g_boxed_copy): copy a boxed structure
832 (g_boxed_free): free a boxed structure
834 (g_value_get_boxed): standard GValue functions for boxed types
835 (g_boxed_type_register_static): convenience function for easy
836 introduction of new G_TYPE_BOXED derivatives.
838 * gparam.[hc]: introduced g_param_type_register_static(), a short hand
839 for creation of new GParamSpec derived types.
841 * gtype.[hc]: many fixes, introduced ability to flag individual
842 type nodes as ABSTRACT upon registration, added value_peek_pointer()
843 to the value table to peek at GValue contents as a pointer for types
844 that support this. fixed up GValue checks.
846 * gvalue.[hc]: added g_value_fits_pointer() and g_value_get_as_pointer()
847 to peek at the value contents as pointer.
849 * *.[hc]: adaptions to type macro fixes and changes in the type
852 * many const corrections over the place.
854 Sat Oct 21 02:49:56 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
856 * gtype.c (g_type_conforms_to): this function basically behaves like
857 and is_a check, except that it _additionally_ features interfaces
858 for instantiatable types. enforce this in the second branch as well
859 (`type' conforms_to `type') even if `type' is not an interface type.
861 Fri Oct 20 15:31:04 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
863 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: added G_TYPE_POINTER implementation from jrb.
867 * gvaluetypes.c: added GTypeValueTable.value_peek_pointer and
868 suitable implementations of this for G_TYPE_STRING, G_TYPE_OBJECT
871 Mon Aug 21 04:13:37 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
873 * gbsearcharray.[hc]: long standing needed generic implementation
874 of a binary searchable, sorted and dynamically sized array.
876 2000-10-15 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
878 * Makefile.am (BUILT_EXTRA_DIST): New variable.
879 (dist-hook): Handle $(BUILT_EXTRA_DIST).
880 (*): Remove traces of @STRIP_{BEGIN,END}@.
882 2000-09-29 Martin Baulig <baulig@suse.de>
884 Several minor ANSI C fixes.
887 * gtype.c (type_class_init):
888 `(gpointer) bnode->data->class.class_init_base'
889 in call to g_slist_prepend() and
890 'GBaseInitFunc class_init_base = (GBaseInitFunc) slist->data'.
892 * gobject.c: Put text following #endif into comments.
894 2000-09-25 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
896 * Makefile.am: Remove empty SUBDIRS line, as that prevents make
899 Sat Sep 9 20:04:13 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
901 * gobject.c (g_object_last_unref): Move call to
902 g_type_free_instance() here from g_object_do_finalize,
903 since g_type_free_instance() can unload the object's
906 2000-07-27 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
908 * gobject.c: No, don't mark glib_debug_objects for export here,
909 it's handled specially in gtktypeutils.c.
911 * gobject.def: Export g_type_fundamental_last (the function).
913 2000-07-26 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
916 * gobject.c: Mark glib_debug_objects for export/import as it is
919 Sun Jul 23 17:23:35 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
921 * gtype.[hc]: make g_type_fundamental_last() a function, avoiding all
922 that extern variable clutter and avoiding further problems with thread
925 2000-07-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
930 * gtype.c: Shut up Sun's picky compiler.
932 2000-07-14 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
934 * gobject.def: Add g_type_get_plugin.
936 Thu Jul 13 02:07:54 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
938 * gparam.c (g_param_value_defaults): default initialize the temporary
939 default value, instead of nuking the caller's value contents.
941 2000-07-11 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
943 * gtype.c (g_type_get_plugin): Don't return just 0 or 1.
945 Tue Jul 11 02:48:13 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
947 * gtype.[hc]: removed g_type_is_dynamic() and added g_type_get_plugin().
949 2000-07-10 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
951 * gobject-query.c: Include ../config.h for HAVE_UNISTD_H. Use it
952 to guard inclusion of <unistd.h>.
954 * gtype.h: Fix copy-paste errors in the ifdefs on how to declare a
955 variable for export. Call the macro GOBJECT_VAR.
957 * gtype.c: Declare _g_type_fundamental_last for export here, too.
958 (type_node_any_new): Use only constant expressions for sizeof
959 operator (for instance MSVC requires this).
961 * makefile.mingw.in: Define GOBJECT_COMPILATION.
963 Sun Jul 9 21:21:46 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
965 * genums.c: Move string.h include into the .c file
966 instead of where it was in the .h file by mistake.
968 Thu Jul 6 15:30:27 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
970 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): dist fixes.
972 * gobject.c: Add a global variable glib_debug_objects
973 (not in header file) to control object tracing.
975 2000-07-01 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
977 * gobject.def: Update added and renamed entry points.
979 * makefile.mingw.in: Add gvaluetypes.o.
981 Thu Jun 29 16:02:07 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
983 * gobject.c:include string.h for memset
984 * genums.h: include string.h for strcpy
985 * gvalue.c: include string.h for memset, memcpy.
987 Sat Jun 24 23:03:04 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
989 * gtype.[hc]: provide G_TYPE_CHAR, G_TYPE_UCHAR, G_TYPE_BOOLEAN,
990 G_TYPE_INT, G_TYPE_UINT, G_TYPE_LONG, G_TYPE_ULONG, G_TYPE_FLOAT,
991 G_TYPE_DOUBLE and G_TYPE_STRING fundamental types.
992 added a GTypeValueTable* pointer to GTypeInfo structure for types
993 to implement GValue handling functions.
994 GTypeValueTable contains the following members:
995 value_init(): initialize a GValue structure.
996 value_free(): free GValue structure contents (optional).
997 value_copy(): copy one GValue contents to another GValue structure of
998 collect_type: varargs collection type for the first variable argument
999 to be collected by collect_value().
1000 collect_value(): variable arguments collection function (optional).
1001 lcopy_type: varargs collection type for the first variable argument
1002 to be location copyied by lcopy_value().
1003 lcopy_value(): variable arguments location copy function (optional).
1004 g_type_value_table_peek(): new function to retrive the GTypeValueTable*
1005 for a type node. ValueTables get inherited from parent types, unless
1006 overridden through the GTypeInfo structure. internally, GTypeValueTable
1007 support means an added overhead of one pointer per static or used
1009 g_type_add_class_cache_func(): provide a cache_func/data pair to be
1010 called prior to a type nodes last_unref() function, this can be used
1011 to prevent premature class destruction. multiple installed cache_func()
1012 will be chained upon last_unref() untill one of them returns TRUE.
1013 the cache_func()s have to check the class id passed in to figure whether
1014 they actually want to cache the class of this type (since all classes
1015 are routed through the cache_func() chain).
1016 g_type_remove_class_cache_func(): remove a previously installed
1017 cache_func/data pair. the cache maintained by this function has to be
1018 clear when calling g_type_remove_class_cache_func() to avoid leaks.
1019 g_type_class_unref_uncached(): class unref function for cache_func()
1020 implementations, unreferences a class omitting the cache chain (and
1021 therefore unref->cache->unref->... loops).
1023 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: provide the value setters/getters for the primitive
1024 fundamental types boolean, char, uchar, int, uint, long, ulong, float,
1027 * gvalue.[hc]: provide G_TYPE_IS_VALUE() in terms of whether a
1028 GTypeValueTable is provided for this type.
1029 removed g_value_init_default(), g_value_validate(), g_value_defaults(),
1030 g_value_set_default() and g_values_cmp() as these are supplied by the
1032 moved g_values_exchange() into the "implementation details" section,
1033 since it just provides the underlying functionality for
1036 * gvaluecollector.h: renamed the varargs value container from
1037 GParamCValue to GTypeCValue as the value collection methods are
1038 supplied by the type system now.
1039 G_PARAM_COLLECT_VALUE() and G_PARAM_LCOPY_VALUE() got renamed to
1040 G_VALUE_COLLECT() and G_VALUE_LCOPY() and operate without a
1041 GParamSpec structure now.
1043 * genums.h: macros cleanups/fixes.
1045 * genum.c: provide G_TYPE_ENUM and G_TYPE_FLAGS type
1046 and assorted g_value_{s|g}et_{enum|flags}() implementations.
1049 provide G_IS_VALUE_OBJECT(), G_TYPE_OBJECT ValueTable methods
1050 and g_value_{s|g}et_object().
1052 * gparam.[hc]: reduced class to value_set_default(),
1053 value_validate() and values_cmp(). also parameters now need to fill
1054 in a GType value_type; field to indicate the GValue type they
1055 are handling. provide g_param_value_set_default(),
1056 g_param_value_defaults(), g_param_value_validate() and
1057 g_param_values_cmp().
1059 * gparamspecs.[hc]: got rid of the g_value_* functions and
1060 the G_IS_VALUE_* macros. adapted param spec implementations
1061 according to the GParamSpecClass changes.
1063 Sat Jun 10 08:38:27 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1065 * gtype.c (type_class_init): fetch the nth iface entry of the
1066 type node in the nth loop iteration, not alwys the first.
1067 bug discovered by Walt Pohl <cher@suitware.com>.
1068 (type_data_finalize_class_ifaces): same here, cut and paste
1071 Wed Jun 7 09:21:05 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
1073 * Makefile.am (INCLUDES): Add top_builddir so glibconfig.h
1074 is found properly when build srcdir != builddir. (Patch from
1077 2000-05-13 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
1081 * gobject.rc.in: New files, for Win32 (mingw) build.
1083 * Makefile.am: Add to EXTRA_DIST. Add rules to produce the
1084 corresponding non-*.in files.
1086 * gtype.h: (Win32:) Mark _g_type_fundamental_last for
1087 export/import from DLL.
1089 Fri May 5 01:15:48 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1091 * gtype.h: add reserved fundamental ids for gtk types (for transition
1092 time). added G_TYPE_FUNDAMENTAL_MAX for gtk.
1094 Mon Apr 17 20:45:50 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1096 * glib-gobject.c (g_object_base_class_finalize): oops, don't unset
1097 n_params prior to destructing them.
1099 Tue Apr 11 04:28:10 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1101 * fixed a couple of bugs in the initial parameter/object
1102 implementations, after getting beast running on GObject and GValue.
1104 Fri Apr 7 04:27:49 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1106 * glib-gobject.[hc]: completed parameter set/get implementations,
1107 along with asyncronous parameter changed notification queue.
1109 Sun Apr 2 04:54:36 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1111 * glib-gobject.[hc]: GObject implementation, that is facilities
1112 for setting/getting quarked data and reference counting.
1114 * glib-gparamspecs.[hc]: first actuall parameter implementations
1115 for GLib, so far we have: char, uchar, bool, int, uint, long,
1116 ulong, enum, flags, float, double, string and object. each of these
1117 GParamSpecs is a new instantiatable type in its own respect,
1118 so the .c file derives 13 new types from G_TYPE_PARAM and
1119 defines over 50 (*2) conversion facilities.
1121 * glib-gvaluecollector.h: generic varargs handling stubs for
1122 GParamSpecs, private header file (does get installed for
1123 inclusion into user code though).
1125 * glib-gvalue.[hc]: GValue functionality implementation.
1127 * glib-gparam.[hc]: basis GParamSpec implementation for
1128 the virtual base type G_TYPE_PARAM.
1130 * glib-genums.[hc]: enum/flags type implementation, based on
1133 * glib-gtype.[hc]: GLib Type System implementation, heavily
1134 based on BSE's dynamic type system.
