3 * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in: Make glib-genmarshal.exe.
5 * glib-genmarshal.c: Conditionalise include of unistd.h.
6 Include <io.h> on Win32.
8 * gobject.def: Add some missing entry points.
10 Fri Oct 27 16:33:41 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
12 * gsignal.[hc]: publically define GSignalInvocationHint structure
13 that gets passed in to closure invocations. added signal details.
14 renamed GSignalType to GSignalFlags to comply with conventions.
15 quite some cleanups and minor fixes. avoid uneccessary handler list
16 walks upon invokation of after handlers. relookup handler list for
17 restarted emissions. preliminary abort normal handler invokation if
18 after handler is encountered.
21 * gclosure.[hc]: moved invocation_hint to the end of the
22 g_closure_invoke() arguments as sugegsted by kenelson.
23 also made it a gpointer to be more generic. the invocation_hint
24 is a caller specific thing that can be used to pass additional
25 data in to closure invocations as documented with the caller
28 Fri Oct 27 05:35:14 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
30 * gobject.c (g_object_watch_closure): fixed realloc bug, reported
33 * gsignal.c (g_signal_newv): fixed deadlock scenarion where
34 g_signal_lookup() would be called with the signal lock being
35 held. reported by james henstridge.
37 * gclosure.c (g_closure_set_meta_marshal): fixed memcpy/overwrite bug
40 2000-10-26 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
42 * gbsearcharray.c (bsearch_array_insert): Fix gccisms (pointer
43 arithmetic on void pointer, label without statement following.
45 * gtype.c (type_node_fundamental_info): Don't apply unary minus to
46 result of sizeof operator, it can be unsigned. Cast first to
49 * gobject.def: Add new functions.
51 * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in: Add new objects.
53 2000-10-26 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
55 * Makefile.am: Remove empty SUBDIRS line _again_, as that _still_
56 prevents 'make dist' from working.
58 Wed Oct 25 19:11:03 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
60 * gbsearcharray.h (g_bsearch_array_get_nth): Don't use implicit
61 casts from void * since this will get included from C++ too
64 Thu Oct 26 00:30:27 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
66 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: added g_value_set_static_string().
68 * gboxed.[hc]: const corrections. added g_value_set_static_boxed().
70 Wed Oct 25 20:27:02 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
72 * gtype.c (g_type_free_instance): for the moment, freeing object
73 structures will fill their memory portion with 0xAA. there's a
74 FIXME there, remove this line at a later point.
76 Tue Oct 24 23:10:26 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
79 * glib-genmarshal.c: added publically installed marshaller generator.
81 * gtype.h: added G_TYPE_INSTANCE_GET_INTERFACE() to retrive a certain
82 interface VTable from instances.
84 Mon Oct 23 08:28:15 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
86 * gobject.[hc]: new functions for closure maintenance:
87 (g_object_watch_closure): maintain validity of the object and
88 the closure for objects that are used as data part of a closure.
89 (g_cclosure_new_object): convenience function to create C closures
90 that have an object as data argument.
91 (g_closure_new_object): convenience function to create closures
92 that have an object as data argument.
94 * gclosure.[hc]: implementation of GClosure mechanism.
95 a closure is basically an encapsulation of a callback function
96 and its environment. ideally, most places supporting callback
97 functions will simply take a GClosure* pointer and thus unify
98 callback environments wrg destroy notification etc.
99 GClosure provides destroy notifiers for arbitrary data pointers,
100 reference counting, invalidation notification (it can be invalidated
101 which is merely a deactivate state) and a marshallinbg abstraction.
102 GCClosure is also provided in these files, they present a specialized
103 GClosure implementation for C language callbacks.
105 * genum.c: macro cleanups.
107 * gboxed.[hc]: new files, for boxed type abstraction.
108 (g_boxed_copy): copy a boxed structure
109 (g_boxed_free): free a boxed structure
111 (g_value_get_boxed): standard GValue functions for boxed types
112 (g_boxed_type_register_static): convenience function for easy
113 introduction of new G_TYPE_BOXED derivatives.
115 * gparam.[hc]: introduced g_param_type_register_static(), a short hand
116 for creation of new GParamSpec derived types.
118 * gtype.[hc]: many fixes, introduced ability to flag individual
119 type nodes as ABSTRACT upon registration, added value_peek_pointer()
120 to the value table to peek at GValue contents as a pointer for types
121 that support this. fixed up GValue checks.
123 * gvalue.[hc]: added g_value_fits_pointer() and g_value_get_as_pointer()
124 to peek at the value contents as pointer.
126 * *.[hc]: adaptions to type macro fixes and changes in the type
129 * many const corrections over the place.
131 Sat Oct 21 02:49:56 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
133 * gtype.c (g_type_conforms_to): this function basically behaves like
134 and is_a check, except that it _additionally_ features interfaces
135 for instantiatable types. enforce this in the second branch as well
136 (`type' conforms_to `type') even if `type' is not an interface type.
138 Fri Oct 20 15:31:04 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
140 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: added G_TYPE_POINTER implementation from jrb.
144 * gvaluetypes.c: added GTypeValueTable.value_peek_pointer and
145 suitable implementations of this for G_TYPE_STRING, G_TYPE_OBJECT
148 Mon Aug 21 04:13:37 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
150 * gbsearcharray.[hc]: long standing needed generic implementation
151 of a binary searchable, sorted and dynamically sized array.
153 2000-10-15 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
155 * Makefile.am (BUILT_EXTRA_DIST): New variable.
156 (dist-hook): Handle $(BUILT_EXTRA_DIST).
157 (*): Remove traces of @STRIP_{BEGIN,END}@.
159 2000-09-29 Martin Baulig <baulig@suse.de>
161 Several minor ANSI C fixes.
164 * gtype.c (type_class_init):
165 `(gpointer) bnode->data->class.class_init_base'
166 in call to g_slist_prepend() and
167 'GBaseInitFunc class_init_base = (GBaseInitFunc) slist->data'.
169 * gobject.c: Put text following #endif into comments.
171 2000-09-25 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
173 * Makefile.am: Remove empty SUBDIRS line, as that prevents make
176 Sat Sep 9 20:04:13 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
178 * gobject.c (g_object_last_unref): Move call to
179 g_type_free_instance() here from g_object_do_finalize,
180 since g_type_free_instance() can unload the object's
183 2000-07-27 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
185 * gobject.c: No, don't mark glib_debug_objects for export here,
186 it's handled specially in gtktypeutils.c.
188 * gobject.def: Export g_type_fundamental_last (the function).
190 2000-07-26 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
193 * gobject.c: Mark glib_debug_objects for export/import as it is
196 Sun Jul 23 17:23:35 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
198 * gtype.[hc]: make g_type_fundamental_last() a function, avoiding all
199 that extern variable clutter and avoiding further problems with thread
202 2000-07-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
207 * gtype.c: Shut up Sun's picky compiler.
209 2000-07-14 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
211 * gobject.def: Add g_type_get_plugin.
213 Thu Jul 13 02:07:54 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
215 * gparam.c (g_param_value_defaults): default initialize the temporary
216 default value, instead of nuking the caller's value contents.
218 2000-07-11 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
220 * gtype.c (g_type_get_plugin): Don't return just 0 or 1.
222 Tue Jul 11 02:48:13 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
224 * gtype.[hc]: removed g_type_is_dynamic() and added g_type_get_plugin().
226 2000-07-10 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
228 * gobject-query.c: Include ../config.h for HAVE_UNISTD_H. Use it
229 to guard inclusion of <unistd.h>.
231 * gtype.h: Fix copy-paste errors in the ifdefs on how to declare a
232 variable for export. Call the macro GOBJECT_VAR.
234 * gtype.c: Declare _g_type_fundamental_last for export here, too.
235 (type_node_any_new): Use only constant expressions for sizeof
236 operator (for instance MSVC requires this).
238 * makefile.mingw.in: Define GOBJECT_COMPILATION.
240 Sun Jul 9 21:21:46 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
242 * genums.c: Move string.h include into the .c file
243 instead of where it was in the .h file by mistake.
245 Thu Jul 6 15:30:27 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
247 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): dist fixes.
249 * gobject.c: Add a global variable glib_debug_objects
250 (not in header file) to control object tracing.
252 2000-07-01 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
254 * gobject.def: Update added and renamed entry points.
256 * makefile.mingw.in: Add gvaluetypes.o.
258 Thu Jun 29 16:02:07 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
260 * gobject.c:include string.h for memset
261 * genums.h: include string.h for strcpy
262 * gvalue.c: include string.h for memset, memcpy.
264 Sat Jun 24 23:03:04 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
266 * gtype.[hc]: provide G_TYPE_CHAR, G_TYPE_UCHAR, G_TYPE_BOOLEAN,
267 G_TYPE_INT, G_TYPE_UINT, G_TYPE_LONG, G_TYPE_ULONG, G_TYPE_FLOAT,
268 G_TYPE_DOUBLE and G_TYPE_STRING fundamental types.
269 added a GTypeValueTable* pointer to GTypeInfo structure for types
270 to implement GValue handling functions.
271 GTypeValueTable contains the following members:
272 value_init(): initialize a GValue structure.
273 value_free(): free GValue structure contents (optional).
274 value_copy(): copy one GValue contents to another GValue structure of
275 collect_type: varargs collection type for the first variable argument
276 to be collected by collect_value().
277 collect_value(): variable arguments collection function (optional).
278 lcopy_type: varargs collection type for the first variable argument
279 to be location copyied by lcopy_value().
280 lcopy_value(): variable arguments location copy function (optional).
281 g_type_value_table_peek(): new function to retrive the GTypeValueTable*
282 for a type node. ValueTables get inherited from parent types, unless
283 overridden through the GTypeInfo structure. internally, GTypeValueTable
284 support means an added overhead of one pointer per static or used
286 g_type_add_class_cache_func(): provide a cache_func/data pair to be
287 called prior to a type nodes last_unref() function, this can be used
288 to prevent premature class destruction. multiple installed cache_func()
289 will be chained upon last_unref() untill one of them returns TRUE.
290 the cache_func()s have to check the class id passed in to figure whether
291 they actually want to cache the class of this type (since all classes
292 are routed through the cache_func() chain).
293 g_type_remove_class_cache_func(): remove a previously installed
294 cache_func/data pair. the cache maintained by this function has to be
295 clear when calling g_type_remove_class_cache_func() to avoid leaks.
296 g_type_class_unref_uncached(): class unref function for cache_func()
297 implementations, unreferences a class omitting the cache chain (and
298 therefore unref->cache->unref->... loops).
300 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: provide the value setters/getters for the primitive
301 fundamental types boolean, char, uchar, int, uint, long, ulong, float,
304 * gvalue.[hc]: provide G_TYPE_IS_VALUE() in terms of whether a
305 GTypeValueTable is provided for this type.
306 removed g_value_init_default(), g_value_validate(), g_value_defaults(),
307 g_value_set_default() and g_values_cmp() as these are supplied by the
309 moved g_values_exchange() into the "implementation details" section,
310 since it just provides the underlying functionality for
313 * gvaluecollector.h: renamed the varargs value container from
314 GParamCValue to GTypeCValue as the value collection methods are
315 supplied by the type system now.
316 G_PARAM_COLLECT_VALUE() and G_PARAM_LCOPY_VALUE() got renamed to
317 G_VALUE_COLLECT() and G_VALUE_LCOPY() and operate without a
318 GParamSpec structure now.
320 * genums.h: macros cleanups/fixes.
322 * genum.c: provide G_TYPE_ENUM and G_TYPE_FLAGS type
323 and assorted g_value_{s|g}et_{enum|flags}() implementations.
326 provide G_IS_VALUE_OBJECT(), G_TYPE_OBJECT ValueTable methods
327 and g_value_{s|g}et_object().
329 * gparam.[hc]: reduced class to value_set_default(),
330 value_validate() and values_cmp(). also parameters now need to fill
331 in a GType value_type; field to indicate the GValue type they
332 are handling. provide g_param_value_set_default(),
333 g_param_value_defaults(), g_param_value_validate() and
334 g_param_values_cmp().
336 * gparamspecs.[hc]: got rid of the g_value_* functions and
337 the G_IS_VALUE_* macros. adapted param spec implementations
338 according to the GParamSpecClass changes.
340 Sat Jun 10 08:38:27 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
342 * gtype.c (type_class_init): fetch the nth iface entry of the
343 type node in the nth loop iteration, not alwys the first.
344 bug discovered by Walt Pohl <cher@suitware.com>.
345 (type_data_finalize_class_ifaces): same here, cut and paste
348 Wed Jun 7 09:21:05 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
350 * Makefile.am (INCLUDES): Add top_builddir so glibconfig.h
351 is found properly when build srcdir != builddir. (Patch from
354 2000-05-13 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
358 * gobject.rc.in: New files, for Win32 (mingw) build.
360 * Makefile.am: Add to EXTRA_DIST. Add rules to produce the
361 corresponding non-*.in files.
363 * gtype.h: (Win32:) Mark _g_type_fundamental_last for
364 export/import from DLL.
366 Fri May 5 01:15:48 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
368 * gtype.h: add reserved fundamental ids for gtk types (for transition
369 time). added G_TYPE_FUNDAMENTAL_MAX for gtk.
371 Mon Apr 17 20:45:50 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
373 * glib-gobject.c (g_object_base_class_finalize): oops, don't unset
374 n_params prior to destructing them.
376 Tue Apr 11 04:28:10 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
378 * fixed a couple of bugs in the initial parameter/object
379 implementations, after getting beast running on GObject and GValue.
381 Fri Apr 7 04:27:49 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
383 * glib-gobject.[hc]: completed parameter set/get implementations,
384 along with asyncronous parameter changed notification queue.
386 Sun Apr 2 04:54:36 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
388 * glib-gobject.[hc]: GObject implementation, that is facilities
389 for setting/getting quarked data and reference counting.
391 * glib-gparamspecs.[hc]: first actuall parameter implementations
392 for GLib, so far we have: char, uchar, bool, int, uint, long,
393 ulong, enum, flags, float, double, string and object. each of these
394 GParamSpecs is a new instantiatable type in its own respect,
395 so the .c file derives 13 new types from G_TYPE_PARAM and
396 defines over 50 (*2) conversion facilities.
398 * glib-gvaluecollector.h: generic varargs handling stubs for
399 GParamSpecs, private header file (does get installed for
400 inclusion into user code though).
402 * glib-gvalue.[hc]: GValue functionality implementation.
404 * glib-gparam.[hc]: basis GParamSpec implementation for
405 the virtual base type G_TYPE_PARAM.
407 * glib-genums.[hc]: enum/flags type implementation, based on
410 * glib-gtype.[hc]: GLib Type System implementation, heavily
411 based on BSE's dynamic type system.
