1 2001-06-12 Havoc Pennington <hp@redhat.com>
3 * Makefile.am (glib-mkenums): don't put $(srcdir)/glib-mkenums in
4 bin_SCRIPTS, that breaks make install. Instead put 'glib-mkenums'
5 in bin_SCRIPTS and cp it into builddir
7 Thu May 31 17:56:47 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
9 * gobject-query.c: Fix mispelling in help output.
10 (#53952, Skip Montanaro)
12 2001-05-28 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
14 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Really distribute glib-mkenums, now
15 that bin_SCRIPTS doesn't seem to care about doing so anymore.
17 Mon May 28 06:51:24 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
19 * gsignal.c (signal_emit_unlocked_R): fixed bad faux-pass, forgot
20 to release signal lock when restarting emissions.
22 Sun May 27 04:52:28 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
24 * gsignal.[hc] (g_signal_stop_emission_by_name): added variant
25 to stop signal emissions through a detailed_signal string.
27 * gsignal.c (signal_emit_R) (g_signal_emit_valist): account for
28 the fact that g_value_* functions may cause signal emissons by
29 unlocking the global signal system lock around g_value_* functions.
30 (signal_emit_unlocked_R): renamed this from signal_emit_R() to reflect
31 that this functions acquires the lock on its own now.
33 2001-05-24 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>
35 * makefile.msc.in : changed depndencies to build glib-genmarshal
36 first and statically linked with glib, which makes it independent
37 from the installed glib version. Added new object files to build.
39 * gobject.def : updated
41 Thu May 24 08:52:02 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
43 * gobject.[ch] (g_value_set_object): gpointer, not
46 2001-05-22 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
48 * Makefile.am (bin_SCRIPTS): made 'make distcheck' happy.
50 * gobject.def: Removed g_param_spec_stringc.
52 Tue May 22 02:46:13 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
54 * gobject.c (g_value_set_object): make g_value_set_object()
55 take a gpointer v_object so people don't need to G_OBJECT()
56 cast NULL pointers (C code convenience).
58 Mon May 14 01:49:01 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
60 * gsignal.[hc] (g_signal_handler_is_connected): new function
61 to check whether a handler is still connected to an instance
64 Thu May 10 14:00:48 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
66 * gparamspecs.[hc]: removed g_param_spec_stringc() in lack of
67 evidence of public need.
69 * gsignal.h: added g_signal_disconnect_by_func(),
70 g_signal_block_by_func() and g_signal_unblock_by_func() convenience
71 macros as per owen's request.
73 * gtype.c (SIZEOF_FUNDAMENTAL_INFO): align sizeof (GTypeFundamentalInfo)
74 to size of longs and pointers.
76 2001-05-05 James Henstridge <james@daa.com.au>
78 * Makefile.am: glib-mkenums is not a compiled program, so shouldn't
79 be in the bin_PROGRAMS primary. Put it in bin_SCRIPTS instead, and
80 removed the glib_mkenums_SOURCES var.
82 Thu May 3 06:10:23 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
84 * gobject.c (g_object_set_[q]data_full): Make types of ternary
85 operator correspond. (Fixes compilation errors with Sun CC,
88 Mon Apr 30 20:03:56 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
90 * glib-mkenums (usage): removed \v escaping, newer perl versions don't
91 support this, and it'S probably useless anyways.
93 Sat Apr 28 23:39:42 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
95 * gsignal.[hc]: made signal handler and emission hook ids gulongs.
96 (signal_handlers_foreach_matched_R): only invoke callback for handlers
97 that are not disconnected (id>0).
98 (signal_emit_R): prevent invocation of signal handlers during the
99 emission they were connected within.
101 * glib-mkenums: publically installed perl-script to parse C code
102 enums and generate descriptions thereof.
103 * glib-mkenums.1: assorted man page.
105 2001-04-19 Havoc Pennington <hp@redhat.com>
107 * gobject.c (g_object_get_valist): We were returning junk memory
108 here, because we didn't copy the value (G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS
109 passed to G_VALUE_LCOPY) and then we freed the GValue immediately
110 after. Removed G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS from here; need a
111 G_VALUE_STEAL_CONTENTS or the like if we want this optimization.
113 Wed Apr 18 09:46:56 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
115 * gobject.c gsignal.c: Change C++ comments for FIXME's to
116 C comments. (Patch from Andres Salomon)
118 2001-04-14 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>
120 * gobject.def : updated
122 Mon Apr 9 18:56:15 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
124 * gclosure.c (g_closure_invoke): only require marshal/meta_marshal if
125 we're valid (about to actually do marshalling).
127 Tue Apr 3 20:23:24 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
131 Tue Apr 3 14:06:00 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
133 * gparam.[hc]: added g_param_spec_pool_list() to list pspecs per
134 owner_type. the pspecs are not referenced, so the caller is
135 supposed to have some idea about owner_type not randomly
136 nuking his pspec's. if this is going to provide problems in
137 the future, we can either auto-ref the pspecs, or add a
138 _foreach variant, though the latter would have to invoke
139 the callback while pspec's mutex is acquired, so i just
140 went for the _list variant for now.
142 * gclosure.h (G_CALLBACK): made GCallback a void (*) (void) fucntion.
144 Sat Mar 31 23:55:58 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
147 * gparamspecs.[hc]: applied patch from owen to implement
150 Fri Mar 30 07:34:02 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
152 * gtype.c (type_iface_retrive_holder_info_Wm):
153 * gtypeplugin.c (g_type_plugin_complete_interface_info):
154 * gtypemodule.c (g_type_module_complete_interface_info):
155 change order of instance_type and interface_type so they match
156 the g_type_add_interface_*() API.
158 * gsignal.c (g_signal_emit_valist): always assign C return value
159 location, people depending on unaltered return values after emissions
160 that had no handlers to run need to use g_signal_emitv().
162 * gtype.[hc] (g_type_query): new function to allow querying of
163 class and object size (semantics like g_signal_query()).
164 currently the implementation is better held conservative so as to
165 only support types that are classed and static.
167 2001-03-29 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
169 * gobject.def: Updates.
171 Wed Mar 28 17:04:06 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
173 * gobject.c (object_queue_property): only queue readable properties
174 for notification changes.
176 Thu Mar 22 13:36:50 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
178 * gsignal.c (g_signal_newv): catch G_SIGNAL_RUN_FIRST with a return value.
180 2001-03-21 Martin Baulig <baulig@suse.de>
182 * gboxed.[ch] (g_value_dup_boxed): This takes a `const GValue *'
185 2001-03-18 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
187 * gobject.def: Correct some renamed functions.
189 Sat Mar 17 23:18:36 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
191 * gobject.c (g_object_get_property): minor bug-fix.
193 * gbsearcharray.[hc]: provide a macro for static initialization and
194 functions g_bsearch_array_new() and g_bsearch_array_destroy() for
197 * gboxed.c: introduce G_TYPE_GSTRING, boxed type for GString.
199 * gclosure.[hc]: naming corrections.
201 Fri Mar 9 16:42:08 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
203 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: moved g_strdup_value_contents() into this file as
204 a public function (was static in gobject.c before). it's a bit odd
205 to have that function here, especially since it requires extra includes,
206 but then it doesn't very well fit somewhere else either.
208 * gparamspecs.c: added default/max/min checks to param spec creation
211 2001-03-10 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
213 * gobject.def: Add a couple of missing entries.
215 * Makefile.am (libgobject_1_3_la_LIBADD): Use only on Win32.
217 Fri Mar 9 14:57:17 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
219 * testgruntime.c: test program. covers run first/last/cleanup signal
220 handlers, return value accumulator, signal string returns, and
221 interface types in signal arguments.
223 * gtype.c (g_type_value_table_peek): for interface types without
224 value table, try looking up a value table from an instantiatable
225 prerequisite type (this is safe as an interface may only have
226 one instantiatable prerequisiste).
227 (type_check_is_value_type_U): same here.
229 * gsignal.c (g_signal_newv): assert that return types never have
230 G_SIGNAL_TYPE_STATIC_SCOPE set.
231 (g_signal_newc): only create class closure if the class_offset is not
234 Fri Mar 9 10:14:00 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
236 * gparamspecs.c (g_param_spec_object): use g_type_is_a() to check
237 for object_type being a G_TYPE_OBJECT, not G_TYPE_IS_OBJECT(), since
238 that wouldn't allow interface types.
240 * gtype.c (g_type_interface_add_prerequisite): arg, fixed small cnp bug
241 with bad implications and an off-by-one error.
243 Thu Mar 8 16:34:22 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
245 * gvaluetransform.c: Include <string.h> for memcpy.
247 * gvaluetransform.c (DEFINE_SPRINTF): Remove unnecessary
248 and ANSI-illegal ## token pasting.
250 Thu Mar 8 18:11:52 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
252 * gsignal.c: eek, fixed old hook detail storage code.
254 Thu Mar 8 16:35:48 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
256 * gparamspecs.[hc]: s/g_param_spec_string_c/g_param_spec_stringc/.
258 * gsignal.[hc]: fixed accumulator invocation, implemented emission
259 hooks. and no, neither of these callbacks are called via a closure,
260 language bindings can wrap the accumulator and emission hook
261 interface, they already get parameters marshalled into a GValue array.
262 (g_signal_connect): removed this function as its C specific, doesn't
263 cover the swapped argument, is too close to its broken original
264 gtk_signal_connect() and creates demand for _swapped, _after and
265 _swapped_after variants <brrr>.
266 (g_signal_connectc): convenience macro to connect a C handler
267 func with data, like the old g_signal_connect() plus swapped
271 * gboxed.c: added G_TYPE_VALUE boxed type.
273 Wed Mar 7 19:02:51 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
275 * gtype.c (type_node_add_iface_entry_W): catch when adding an interface
276 to an ancestor of a child that already conforms to this interface.
277 currently we spew a warning here, should we be silent?
278 (g_type_interface_add_prerequisite): new function to add a prerequisite
279 type to an interface, that must succeed an instance is_a prerequisite
280 type check before the interface can be added to an instance. the
281 prerequisite types are also suuported in is_a checks of the interface.
282 (g_type_instance_is_a):
283 (g_type_check_instance_cast):
284 (g_type_check_instance): cleanups and optimizations.
286 (g_type_check_class_cast): same, also prevented these from accepting
287 interface types, as class structures don't nest interfaces.
289 2001-03-07 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
291 * Makefile.am: Avoid rebuilding everything everytime.
293 Wed Mar 7 09:36:33 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
295 * gboxed.[hc]: changed prototype of g_boxed_type_register_static()
296 to contain an optional init function and a hint at whether the
297 boxed structure uses ref counting internally.
298 added g_value_set_boxed_take_ownership().
299 made G_TYPE_BOXED an abstract value type.
301 * genums.[hc]: made G_TYPE_ENUM and G_TYPE_FLAGS abstract value
304 * glib-genmarshal.c: argument type changes, preparation for third-party
307 * gobject.[hc]: cleaned up get/set property code.
308 added g_strdup_value_contents() to improve warnings.
310 * gparam.[hc]: added g_param_value_convert(), taking over responsibility
311 of the old g_value_convert(). added G_PARAM_LAX_VALIDATION flag so
312 validation alterations may be valid a part of the property setting
315 * gparamspecs.[hc]: made value comparisons stable (for sort applications).
316 added GParamSpecValueArray, a param spec for value arrays and
317 GParamSpecClosure. nuked the value exchange functions and
320 * gtype.[hc]: catch unintialized usages of the type system with
321 g_return_val_if_uninitialized(). introduced G_TYPE_FLAG_VALUE_ABSTRACT
322 to flag types that introduce a value table, but can't be used for
323 g_value_init(). cleaned up reserved type ids.
325 * gvalue.[hc]: code cleanups and saner checking.
326 nuked the value exchange API. implemented value transformations, we
327 can't really "convert" values, rather transforms are an anylogy to
328 C casts, real conversions need a param spec for validation, which is
329 why g_param_value_convert() does real conversions now.
331 * gvaluearray.[hc]: new files that implement a GValueArray, a struct
332 that can hold inhomogeneous arrays of value (to that extend that it
333 also allowes undefined values, i.e. G_VALUE_TYPE(value)==0).
334 this is exposed to the type system as a boxed type.
336 * gvaluetransform.c: new file implementing most of the former value
337 exchange functions as single-sided transformations.
339 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: nuked G_TYPE_CCALLBACK, added
340 g_value_set_string_take_ownership().
342 * *.h: s/G_IS_VALUE_/G_VALUE_HOLDS_/.
344 * *.[hc]: many fixes and cleanups.
346 * many warning improvements.
348 Tue Feb 27 18:35:15 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
350 * gobject.c (g_object_get_valist): urg, pass G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS
351 into G_VALUE_LCOPY(), this needs proper documenting.
353 * gparam.c: fixed G_PARAM_USER_MASK.
355 * gtype.c (type_data_make_W):
356 (type_data_last_unref_Wm): fixed invalid memory freeing.
358 * gobject.c (g_object_last_unref): destroy signal handlers associated
359 with object, right before finalization.
361 * gsignal.c (g_signal_parse_name): catch destroyed nodes or signals
362 that don't actually support details.
364 * gobject.[hc]: got rid of property trailers. nuked GObject
365 properties "data" and the "signal" variants.
366 (g_object_connect): new convenience function to do multiple
367 signal connections at once.
368 (g_object_disconnect): likewise, for disconnections.
370 * gparam.[hc] (g_param_spec_pool_lookup): took out trailer support.
372 * gvalue.[hc]: marked g_value_fits_pointer() and g_value_peek_pointer()
373 as private (the latter got renamed from g_value_get_as_pointer()).
375 2001-02-21 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
377 * *.h: Use G_BEGIN_DECLS and G_END_DECLS.
379 * Makefile.am: Use libglib-1.3.la from top_builddir. Invoke
380 libtool with -no-undefined for Win32 and Cygwin.
382 Wed Feb 21 18:31:46 2001 Jonathan Blandford <jrb@redhat.com>
384 * gsignal.h (g_signal_connect): Add g_signal_connect define to
385 make porting from gtk_signal_connect easy.
387 * gsignal.c (g_signal_emit_valist): Use G_TYPE_FROM_INSTANCE
388 (instance) instead of node->itype when initting the value.
390 2001-02-17 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>
392 Applied patch from Soeren Sandmann:
394 * gvaluetypes.c (g_value_get_string): G_CONST_RETURN
396 * gtype.c (g_type_name): G_CONST_RETURN
398 * gsignal.c (g_signal_name): G_CONST_RETURN
400 * gobject-query.c (main): const fix
402 Sat Feb 17 07:58:46 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
404 * genums.h (G_TYPE_IS_FLAGS): patch from sven to fixup
405 G_ENUM_CLASS_TYPE() macro.
407 Sat Feb 17 04:55:35 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
409 * gtype.[hc]: changed collect_format, collect_value() and lcopy_format,
410 lcopy_value() in the GTypeValueTable. the collect functions are now
411 called only once per value, collect_format/lcopy_format are strings
412 that enlist all necessary GTypeCValues to be varargs-collected.
414 * gvalue.h: ranamed STATIC_TAG to G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS to indicate that
415 a value shouldn't copy its contents.
417 * gvaluecollector.h: changed G_VALUE_COLLECT() and G_VALUE_LCOPY()
418 macros to carry an additional argument (flags) that can be used
419 to pass G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS along to the collection functions.
421 * *.c: adapted collect_value() and lcopy_value() functions to the new
422 prototypes, support G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS where apropriate.
424 * gsignal.[hc]: introduced a G_SIGNAL_TYPE_STATIC_SCOPE flag that can
425 be passed along (ORed) with the parameter types, indicating that the
426 emission arguments are to be considered static for the scope of the
427 emission. should be used with care and only if the caller knows that
428 a parameter cannot be destroyed/freed from signal handlers connected
431 Fri Feb 16 07:10:44 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
435 (g_closure_sink): make closure sinking explicit.
438 (g_signal_connect_data):
439 (g_signal_connect_closure):
440 (g_signal_connect_closure_by_id):
441 (g_signal_newv): perform explicit closure sinking.
443 Thu Feb 8 00:31:45 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
445 * gtype.h: added G_TYPE_DEBUG_NONE for/from Eric Lemings ;)
447 2001-02-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
449 * gobject.def: Remove glib_debug_objects.
451 Sun Feb 4 07:30:53 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
453 * gtype.[hc]: changed g_type_init() to take debugging flags
454 initially, a combination of G_TYPE_DEBUG_OBJECTS and
455 G_TYPE_DEBUG_SIGNALS. using the G_TYPE_ prefix is a bit odd
456 here, but basically g_type_int() serves as initialization
457 fucntion for all of GType, GObject, GSignal, so what the heck.
459 * gobject.c: special case debugging code properly.
460 changed glib_trap_object_ref to g_trap_object_ref.
462 * gsignal.c: add signal emission debugging abilities, along with
463 a new trap object g_trap_instance_signals.
465 2001-02-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
467 * Makefile.am (progs_LDADD): Change order of libs to libgobject
468 first, then libglib. Needed for cygwin, says jbdoll@kepri.re.kr.
470 Wed Jan 31 06:19:49 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
472 * gparam.h: gtk-doc sucks for not dealing with #define inside enums.
474 * gtype.[hc]: added G_TYPE_FLAG_RESERVED_ID_BIT, a bit in the type
475 number that's supposed to be left untouched (preserved mainly
476 for the signal code).
478 * *.c: added thread safety code, based on an old patch from sebastian.
479 the remaining thread safety issues are now datalists on pspecs (to be
480 solved im gdataset.c) and gvalue.c where locking concerns value exchange
481 functionality only, and that's soon to be revised.
483 2001-01-27 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
485 * makefile.msc.in: Don't try to compile gmarshal.c on its own.
487 2001-01-24 <alexl@redhat.com>
489 * gclosure.c (g_closure_unref):
490 Don't leak closure->notifiers.
492 2001-01-05 Havoc Pennington <hp@redhat.com>
494 * gparamspecs.c (g_param_spec_enum): set the value_type in the
495 param spec; closes bug 40210
496 (g_param_spec_flags): ditto for flags
498 2001-01-03 Alexander Larsson <alexl@redhat.com>
501 Move glib_debug_objects out of the G_ENABLE_DEBUG #ifdef.
503 Thu Dec 28 11:36:44 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
505 * gbsearcharray.c (upper_power2): disable G_BSEARCH_ALIGN_POWER2
506 fucntionality if DISABLE_MEM_POOLS is defined.
508 * gtype.c: honour DISABLE_MEM_POOLS.
510 * gsignal.c (g_signal_init): flag signal key bsearch array with
511 G_BSEARCH_ALIGN_POWER2 to avoid excessive growth time. honour
514 * gparam.h: added G_PARAM_READWRITE alias for (G_PARAM_READABLE |
517 2000-12-15 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
519 * gobject.def: Update.
521 2000-12-15 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>
523 * gobject.c (g_object_do_class_init): use g_signal_newc
525 * gsignal.c (g_signal_newc): convenience function for signals
527 (g_signal_new_valist): added
528 (g_signal_new): removed
530 Fri Dec 15 04:40:23 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
532 * gparam.[hc]: add an instance member value_type so the default
533 value of the pspec class can be overridden.
535 2000-12-14 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
537 * makefile.mingw.in: Update, include parts from Makefile.am to
538 build gmarshal.[ch]. Some day, we won't need these separate
539 makefiles for Win32 compilation. I hope.
541 * makefile.msc.in: Update. No use trying to build gmarshal.[ch]
542 here, it would require Unixish tools. MSVC users building from CVS
543 sources are out of luck.
545 * gobject.def: Update.
547 Wed Dec 13 09:31:26 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
549 * gparamspecs.[hc]: add G_TYPE_PARAM_BOXED implementation.
551 * gobject.[hc]: minor fixes.
553 Tue Dec 12 23:38:02 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
555 * Makefile.am: _never_ touch oldest-source-stamp.
557 * gobject.[hc]: construct property handling fixes/improvements.
558 fixed trailer handling in get/set property.
560 * gparam.[hc]: implement param spec pool, got rid of param spec
561 hashtable. the most prominent change is that e deal with type
564 2000-12-12 Elliot Lee <sopwith@redhat.com>
567 . You have to 'touch oldest-source-stamp' if you want to avoid having
568 the Makefile constantly rebuild itself.
569 . Fix marshaller generation rules to work with srcdir != builddir
570 (there were issues with trying to run "./glib-genmarshal", etc.)
572 Mon Dec 11 04:44:11 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
574 * gboxed.c: fixed dealing with collection/lcopy of NULL values.
576 * gclosure.h: removed insane ramblings, added G_CALLBACK() a casting
579 * Makefile.am: cleanups, marshaller generation rules.
581 * gmarshal.[hc]: new files with GRuntime standard marshallers.
583 * glib-genmarshal.c: fix log domain, support gruntime standard
584 marshallers, suport G_TYPE_PARAM, come with extern "C" and
587 * glib-genmarshal.1: reflect glib-genmarshal.c updates.
589 * gobject.[hc]: implement object constructor. rework parameter
590 changed notification queueing, we support queue freezes now and
591 don't dispatch from an idle handler anymore.
592 parameter->property rename hassle.
593 implemented ::properties_changed and ::notify::* signals for
594 property change notification (the later supports property names
595 as details). added signal connection and named data properties.
596 (g_signal_connect_object): new function to setup while_alive
598 (g_object_class_install_property): sink properties now, since they
599 are initially floating.
600 (g_object_steal_data):
601 (g_object_set_data_full):
603 (g_object_get_data): set/get data by using g_datalist_*() functions
605 (g_object_queue_param_changed): nuked.
606 (g_object_freeze_notify): start queueing of property changes (freeze/
608 (g_object_notify): announce changes of a certain property directly.
609 (g_object_thaw_notify): process queue of property changes, therefore
610 emitting GObject::notify::detail with detail being the changed
612 (G_OBJECT_WARN_INVALID_PROPERTY_ID): saner macro variant of former
613 G_WARN_INVALID_PARAM_ID().
615 * gparam.[hc]: param specs are now initially floating and need to be
616 sunken with g_param_spec_sink(), support G_TYPE_PARAM values.
617 added G_PARAM_CONSTRUCT and G_PARAM_CONSTRUCT_ONLY parameter flags,
618 required by GObjectClass.constructor().
620 * gparamspecs.[hc]: added GParamSpecParam, GParamSpecPointer and
621 GParamSpecCCallback, param specs for G_TYPE_PARAM, G_TYPE_POINTER
622 and G_TYPE_CCALLBACK respectively.
624 * gsignal.[hc]: cleanups.
625 (signal_id_lookup): after walking the anchestry, try interfaces as well.
626 (g_signal_new): new function to create signals from varargs type list.
627 (g_signal_connect_closure): closure connection variant that works from
629 (g_signal_connect_data): c handler connection variant that works from
631 (g_signal_emit_valist): emit signal for an instance with paraneters
632 collected from a va_list.
633 (g_signal_emit): emit signal, taking parameters from varargs list.
634 (g_signal_emit_by_name): same as g_signal_emit, working from
636 (signal_emit_R): return whether return_value needs to be altered.
638 * gtype.[hc]: set log-domain to GRuntime, i'm slowly getting to all
639 the points that need to reflect the upcoming rename.
640 melt g_type_conforms_to() functionality into g_type_is_a(), as that
641 is what we really want (liskov substitution principle).
642 assorted changes to other files due to conforms_to->is_a.
644 * gvalue.[hc]: implemented g_value_set_instance() that sets a value
645 from an instantiatable type via the value_table's collect_value()
646 function (based on an idea from James Henstridge <james@daa.com.au>).
649 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: implement G_TYPE_CCALLBACK and G_TYPE_PARAM.
651 Wed Nov 29 13:30:05 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
653 * gsignal.c (handlers_find): fix elliots "logic fix" that dereferences
654 NULL nodes if C handlers are searched for specific signals.
656 2000-11-28 Elliot Lee <sopwith@redhat.com>
658 * gsignal.c: Fix warnings about possible use of uninitialized
659 variables, and fix logic that would leave 'node' unset in cases
660 that it might be used in.
662 * glib-genmarshal.c: Fix warning about printf format.
664 2000-11-28 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
666 * gboxed.c: Include <string.h> for memset ().
668 2000-11-22 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>

674 * gobject.c (g_object_get_data)
676 (g_object_set_data_full)
677 (g_object_steal_data): More convenient data-setting functions
679 Wed Nov 15 20:58:05 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
681 * gtypemodule.c (g_type_module_use): If loading the
682 module fails, don't increment the use count.
684 Thu Nov 9 01:49:43 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
686 * gobject.h (G_WARN_INVALID_PARAM_ID): doh,
687 s/BSE_OBJECT_TYPE_NAME/G_OBJECT_TYPE_NAME/; reported by Maas-Maarten
688 Zeeman <maas@wanadoo.nl>.
690 Mon Nov 13 00:48:39 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
692 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add glib-genmarshal.1
694 2000-11-11 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>

704 * Makefile.am gtypemodule.[ch]: New basic implementation of
705 GTypePlugin interface as a GObject. Dynamically loaded modules can
706 register any number of types and interface on the module.
708 Sun Nov 5 10:25:40 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
710 * gsignal.c (handlers_find): When appending handlers and
711 not matching on signal_id, use hlist->signal_id instead of
712 signal_id. Having the correct signal_id when unreffing
713 the handlers makes things work a lot better.
715 2000-11-05 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
717 * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in (gobject_OBJECTS): Add gtypeplugin.
719 * gobject.def: Update.
721 Sun Nov 5 05:22:55 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
724 fixed a bag full of subtle bugs of immensive screw-up potential in
725 handlers_find(), luckily no one found out about them yet ;)
726 fixed signal_handlers_foreach_matched_R() so it operates on an
727 initial handler list snapshot provided by handlers_find() to work
728 around general reentrancy problems and to avoid multiple callback()
729 invocations on the same handlers.
730 this code is now officially 80% bug free (10% remaining for interface
731 types, and 10% remaining for destroyed signals ;)
733 Sat Nov 4 02:01:33 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
735 * gsignal.c (_g_signals_destroy): valid signal nodes start out at 1.
737 * gtypeplugin.[hc]: new files holding a GTypePlugin interface
738 implementation that provides the API required by GType to deal with
739 dynamically loadable types.
741 * gtype.[hc]: displace any GTypePlugin business to gtypeplugin.h.
743 Fri Nov 3 07:35:00 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
745 * gsignal.[hc]: prefix internal functions with '_'. renamed
746 g_signal_connect_closure() to g_signal_connect_closure_by_id().
747 added g_signal_parse_name() to retrive signal_id and detail quark
748 from a signal name (internal).
750 Wed Nov 1 03:36:54 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
752 * gobject.c (g_object_base_class_finalize): destroy all signals that
753 the finalized obejct type introduced.
755 * gsignal.c (g_signals_destroy): don't require itype to have
758 * gobject.c (g_object_do_finalize): make sure all signal handlers
762 (g_signal_handler_find): only match on non-0 masks.
763 (g_signal_handlers_block_matched):
764 (g_signal_handlers_unblock_matched):
765 (g_signal_handlers_disconnect_matched): new functions to block/unblock
766 or disconnect handlers in groups.
768 2000-10-30 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
770 * gvalue.c (exchange_entries_equal), gparam.c (param_spec_equals):
771 made both functions return gboolean just for the little extra
772 standard conformance now that GEqualFunc is introduced.
774 Mon Oct 30 05:52:45 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
776 * gsignal.c (g_signal_list_ids): get rid of inline documentation owen
777 added, the doc system would ignore it anyways (for some reason not
780 Mon Oct 30 03:00:07 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
782 * gsignal.[hc] (g_signal_list_ids): renamed owen's g_type_signals(),
783 added required mutex locks.
785 Sun Oct 29 02:31:03 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
787 * gsignal.c (g_type_signals): Fix problem where signals
788 with "_" in them appeared twice in the result array.
790 Sun Oct 29 01:58:44 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
792 * gsignal.h: Add g_type_signals() - a function to list
793 all signals for a given type.
795 Sat Oct 28 00:28:09 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
797 * gclosure.c (g_closure_add_marshal_guards): fixed notifier position
798 for post_marshal guard which was off at 0.
800 Fri Oct 27 21:49:31 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
802 * gobject.[hc]: doh, fix argument order in for
803 g_cclosure_new_object_swap and g_cclosure_new_object.
805 2000-10-28 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
807 * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in: Make glib-genmarshal.exe.
809 * glib-genmarshal.c: Conditionalise include of unistd.h.
810 Include <io.h> on Win32.
812 * gobject.def: Add some missing entry points.
814 Fri Oct 27 16:33:41 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
816 * gsignal.[hc]: publically define GSignalInvocationHint structure
817 that gets passed in to closure invocations. added signal details.
818 renamed GSignalType to GSignalFlags to comply with conventions.
819 quite some cleanups and minor fixes. avoid uneccessary handler list
820 walks upon invokation of after handlers. relookup handler list for
821 restarted emissions. preliminary abort normal handler invokation if
822 after handler is encountered.
825 * gclosure.[hc]: moved invocation_hint to the end of the
826 g_closure_invoke() arguments as sugegsted by kenelson.
827 also made it a gpointer to be more generic. the invocation_hint
828 is a caller specific thing that can be used to pass additional
829 data in to closure invocations as documented with the caller
830 invoking the closure.
832 Fri Oct 27 05:35:14 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
834 * gobject.c (g_object_watch_closure): fixed realloc bug, reported
837 * gsignal.c (g_signal_newv): fixed deadlock scenarion where
838 g_signal_lookup() would be called with the signal lock being
839 held. reported by james henstridge.
841 * gclosure.c (g_closure_set_meta_marshal): fixed memcpy/overwrite bug
844 2000-10-26 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
846 * gbsearcharray.c (bsearch_array_insert): Fix gccisms (pointer
847 arithmetic on void pointer, label without statement following.
849 * gtype.c (type_node_fundamental_info): Don't apply unary minus to
850 result of sizeof operator, it can be unsigned. Cast first to
853 * gobject.def: Add new functions.
855 * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in: Add new objects.
857 2000-10-26 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
859 * Makefile.am: Remove empty SUBDIRS line _again_, as that _still_
860 prevents 'make dist' from working.
862 Wed Oct 25 19:11:03 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
864 * gbsearcharray.h (g_bsearch_array_get_nth): Don't use implicit
865 casts from void * since this will get included from C++ too
868 Thu Oct 26 00:30:27 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
870 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: added g_value_set_static_string().
872 * gboxed.[hc]: const corrections. added g_value_set_static_boxed().
874 Wed Oct 25 20:27:02 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
876 * gtype.c (g_type_free_instance): for the moment, freeing object
877 structures will fill their memory portion with 0xAA. there's a
878 FIXME there, remove this line at a later point.
880 Tue Oct 24 23:10:26 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
883 * glib-genmarshal.c: added publically installed marshaller generator.
885 * gtype.h: added G_TYPE_INSTANCE_GET_INTERFACE() to retrive a certain
886 interface VTable from instances.
888 Mon Oct 23 08:28:15 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
890 * gobject.[hc]: new functions for closure maintenance:
891 (g_object_watch_closure): maintain validity of the object and
892 the closure for objects that are used as data part of a closure.
893 (g_cclosure_new_object): convenience function to create C closures
894 that have an object as data argument.
895 (g_closure_new_object): convenience function to create closures
896 that have an object as data argument.
898 * gclosure.[hc]: implementation of GClosure mechanism.
899 a closure is basically an encapsulation of a callback function
900 and its environment. ideally, most places supporting callback
901 functions will simply take a GClosure* pointer and thus unify
902 callback environments wrg destroy notification etc.
903 GClosure provides destroy notifiers for arbitrary data pointers,
904 reference counting, invalidation notification (it can be invalidated
905 which is merely a deactivate state) and a marshallinbg abstraction.
906 GCClosure is also provided in these files, they present a specialized
907 GClosure implementation for C language callbacks.
909 * genum.c: macro cleanups.
911 * gboxed.[hc]: new files, for boxed type abstraction.
912 (g_boxed_copy): copy a boxed structure
913 (g_boxed_free): free a boxed structure
915 (g_value_get_boxed): standard GValue functions for boxed types
916 (g_boxed_type_register_static): convenience function for easy
917 introduction of new G_TYPE_BOXED derivatives.
919 * gparam.[hc]: introduced g_param_type_register_static(), a short hand
920 for creation of new GParamSpec derived types.
922 * gtype.[hc]: many fixes, introduced ability to flag individual
923 type nodes as ABSTRACT upon registration, added value_peek_pointer()
924 to the value table to peek at GValue contents as a pointer for types
925 that support this. fixed up GValue checks.
927 * gvalue.[hc]: added g_value_fits_pointer() and g_value_get_as_pointer()
928 to peek at the value contents as pointer.
930 * *.[hc]: adaptions to type macro fixes and changes in the type
933 * many const corrections over the place.
935 Sat Oct 21 02:49:56 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
937 * gtype.c (g_type_conforms_to): this function basically behaves like
938 and is_a check, except that it _additionally_ features interfaces
939 for instantiatable types. enforce this in the second branch as well
940 (`type' conforms_to `type') even if `type' is not an interface type.
942 Fri Oct 20 15:31:04 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
944 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: added G_TYPE_POINTER implementation from jrb.
948 * gvaluetypes.c: added GTypeValueTable.value_peek_pointer and
949 suitable implementations of this for G_TYPE_STRING, G_TYPE_OBJECT
952 Mon Aug 21 04:13:37 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
954 * gbsearcharray.[hc]: long standing needed generic implementation
955 of a binary searchable, sorted and dynamically sized array.
957 2000-10-15 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
959 * Makefile.am (BUILT_EXTRA_DIST): New variable.
960 (dist-hook): Handle $(BUILT_EXTRA_DIST).
961 (*): Remove traces of @STRIP_{BEGIN,END}@.
963 2000-09-29 Martin Baulig <baulig@suse.de>
965 Several minor ANSI C fixes.
968 * gtype.c (type_class_init):
969 `(gpointer) bnode->data->class.class_init_base'
970 in call to g_slist_prepend() and
971 'GBaseInitFunc class_init_base = (GBaseInitFunc) slist->data'.
973 * gobject.c: Put text following #endif into comments.
975 2000-09-25 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
977 * Makefile.am: Remove empty SUBDIRS line, as that prevents make
980 Sat Sep 9 20:04:13 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
982 * gobject.c (g_object_last_unref): Move call to
983 g_type_free_instance() here from g_object_do_finalize,
984 since g_type_free_instance() can unload the object's
987 2000-07-27 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
989 * gobject.c: No, don't mark glib_debug_objects for export here,
990 it's handled specially in gtktypeutils.c.
992 * gobject.def: Export g_type_fundamental_last (the function).
994 2000-07-26 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
997 * gobject.c: Mark glib_debug_objects for export/import as it is
1000 Sun Jul 23 17:23:35 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1002 * gtype.[hc]: make g_type_fundamental_last() a function, avoiding all
1003 that extern variable clutter and avoiding further problems with thread
1006 2000-07-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
1011 * gtype.c: Shut up Sun's picky compiler.
1013 2000-07-14 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
1015 * gobject.def: Add g_type_get_plugin.
1017 Thu Jul 13 02:07:54 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1019 * gparam.c (g_param_value_defaults): default initialize the temporary
1020 default value, instead of nuking the caller's value contents.
1022 2000-07-11 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
1024 * gtype.c (g_type_get_plugin): Don't return just 0 or 1.
1026 Tue Jul 11 02:48:13 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1028 * gtype.[hc]: removed g_type_is_dynamic() and added g_type_get_plugin().
1030 2000-07-10 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
1032 * gobject-query.c: Include ../config.h for HAVE_UNISTD_H. Use it
1033 to guard inclusion of <unistd.h>.
1035 * gtype.h: Fix copy-paste errors in the ifdefs on how to declare a
1036 variable for export. Call the macro GOBJECT_VAR.
1038 * gtype.c: Declare _g_type_fundamental_last for export here, too.
1039 (type_node_any_new): Use only constant expressions for sizeof
1040 operator (for instance MSVC requires this).
1042 * makefile.mingw.in: Define GOBJECT_COMPILATION.
1044 Sun Jul 9 21:21:46 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
1046 * genums.c: Move string.h include into the .c file
1047 instead of where it was in the .h file by mistake.
1049 Thu Jul 6 15:30:27 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
1051 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): dist fixes.
1053 * gobject.c: Add a global variable glib_debug_objects
1054 (not in header file) to control object tracing.
1056 2000-07-01 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
1058 * gobject.def: Update added and renamed entry points.
1060 * makefile.mingw.in: Add gvaluetypes.o.
1062 Thu Jun 29 16:02:07 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
1064 * gobject.c:include string.h for memset
1065 * genums.h: include string.h for strcpy
1066 * gvalue.c: include string.h for memset, memcpy.
1068 Sat Jun 24 23:03:04 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1070 * gtype.[hc]: provide G_TYPE_CHAR, G_TYPE_UCHAR, G_TYPE_BOOLEAN,
1071 G_TYPE_INT, G_TYPE_UINT, G_TYPE_LONG, G_TYPE_ULONG, G_TYPE_FLOAT,
1072 G_TYPE_DOUBLE and G_TYPE_STRING fundamental types.
1073 added a GTypeValueTable* pointer to GTypeInfo structure for types
1074 to implement GValue handling functions.
1075 GTypeValueTable contains the following members:
1076 value_init(): initialize a GValue structure.
1077 value_free(): free GValue structure contents (optional).
1078 value_copy(): copy one GValue contents to another GValue structure of
1079 collect_type: varargs collection type for the first variable argument
1080 to be collected by collect_value().
1081 collect_value(): variable arguments collection function (optional).
1082 lcopy_type: varargs collection type for the first variable argument
1083 to be location copyied by lcopy_value().
1084 lcopy_value(): variable arguments location copy function (optional).
1085 g_type_value_table_peek(): new function to retrive the GTypeValueTable*
1086 for a type node. ValueTables get inherited from parent types, unless
1087 overridden through the GTypeInfo structure. internally, GTypeValueTable
1088 support means an added overhead of one pointer per static or used
1090 g_type_add_class_cache_func(): provide a cache_func/data pair to be
1091 called prior to a type nodes last_unref() function, this can be used
1092 to prevent premature class destruction. multiple installed cache_func()
1093 will be chained upon last_unref() untill one of them returns TRUE.
1094 the cache_func()s have to check the class id passed in to figure whether
1095 they actually want to cache the class of this type (since all classes
1096 are routed through the cache_func() chain).
1097 g_type_remove_class_cache_func(): remove a previously installed
1098 cache_func/data pair. the cache maintained by this function has to be
1099 clear when calling g_type_remove_class_cache_func() to avoid leaks.
1100 g_type_class_unref_uncached(): class unref function for cache_func()
1101 implementations, unreferences a class omitting the cache chain (and
1102 therefore unref->cache->unref->... loops).
1104 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: provide the value setters/getters for the primitive
1105 fundamental types boolean, char, uchar, int, uint, long, ulong, float,
1108 * gvalue.[hc]: provide G_TYPE_IS_VALUE() in terms of whether a
1109 GTypeValueTable is provided for this type.
1110 removed g_value_init_default(), g_value_validate(), g_value_defaults(),
1111 g_value_set_default() and g_values_cmp() as these are supplied by the
1113 moved g_values_exchange() into the "implementation details" section,
1114 since it just provides the underlying functionality for
1117 * gvaluecollector.h: renamed the varargs value container from
1118 GParamCValue to GTypeCValue as the value collection methods are
1119 supplied by the type system now.
1120 G_PARAM_COLLECT_VALUE() and G_PARAM_LCOPY_VALUE() got renamed to
1121 G_VALUE_COLLECT() and G_VALUE_LCOPY() and operate without a
1122 GParamSpec structure now.
1124 * genums.h: macros cleanups/fixes.
1126 * genum.c: provide G_TYPE_ENUM and G_TYPE_FLAGS type
1127 and assorted g_value_{s|g}et_{enum|flags}() implementations.
1130 provide G_IS_VALUE_OBJECT(), G_TYPE_OBJECT ValueTable methods
1131 and g_value_{s|g}et_object().
1133 * gparam.[hc]: reduced class to value_set_default(),
1134 value_validate() and values_cmp(). also parameters now need to fill
1135 in a GType value_type; field to indicate the GValue type they
1136 are handling. provide g_param_value_set_default(),
1137 g_param_value_defaults(), g_param_value_validate() and
1138 g_param_values_cmp().
1140 * gparamspecs.[hc]: got rid of the g_value_* functions and
1141 the G_IS_VALUE_* macros. adapted param spec implementations
1142 according to the GParamSpecClass changes.
1144 Sat Jun 10 08:38:27 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1146 * gtype.c (type_class_init): fetch the nth iface entry of the
1147 type node in the nth loop iteration, not alwys the first.
1148 bug discovered by Walt Pohl <cher@suitware.com>.
1149 (type_data_finalize_class_ifaces): same here, cut and paste
1152 Wed Jun 7 09:21:05 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
1154 * Makefile.am (INCLUDES): Add top_builddir so glibconfig.h
1155 is found properly when build srcdir != builddir. (Patch from
1158 2000-05-13 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
1162 * gobject.rc.in: New files, for Win32 (mingw) build.
1164 * Makefile.am: Add to EXTRA_DIST. Add rules to produce the
1165 corresponding non-*.in files.
1167 * gtype.h: (Win32:) Mark _g_type_fundamental_last for
1168 export/import from DLL.
1170 Fri May 5 01:15:48 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1172 * gtype.h: add reserved fundamental ids for gtk types (for transition
1173 time). added G_TYPE_FUNDAMENTAL_MAX for gtk.
1175 Mon Apr 17 20:45:50 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1177 * glib-gobject.c (g_object_base_class_finalize): oops, don't unset
1178 n_params prior to destructing them.
1180 Tue Apr 11 04:28:10 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1182 * fixed a couple of bugs in the initial parameter/object
1183 implementations, after getting beast running on GObject and GValue.
1185 Fri Apr 7 04:27:49 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1187 * glib-gobject.[hc]: completed parameter set/get implementations,
1188 along with asyncronous parameter changed notification queue.
1190 Sun Apr 2 04:54:36 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1192 * glib-gobject.[hc]: GObject implementation, that is facilities
1193 for setting/getting quarked data and reference counting.
1195 * glib-gparamspecs.[hc]: first actuall parameter implementations
1196 for GLib, so far we have: char, uchar, bool, int, uint, long,
1197 ulong, enum, flags, float, double, string and object. each of these
1198 GParamSpecs is a new instantiatable type in its own respect,
1199 so the .c file derives 13 new types from G_TYPE_PARAM and
1200 defines over 50 (*2) conversion facilities.
1202 * glib-gvaluecollector.h: generic varargs handling stubs for
1203 GParamSpecs, private header file (does get installed for
1204 inclusion into user code though).
1206 * glib-gvalue.[hc]: GValue functionality implementation.
1208 * glib-gparam.[hc]: basis GParamSpec implementation for
1209 the virtual base type G_TYPE_PARAM.
1211 * glib-genums.[hc]: enum/flags type implementation, based on
1214 * glib-gtype.[hc]: GLib Type System implementation, heavily
1215 based on BSE's dynamic type system.
