1 Mon May 28 06:51:24 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
3 * gsignal.c (signal_emit_unlocked_R): fixed bad faux-pass, forgot
4 to release signal lock when restarting emissions.
6 Sun May 27 04:52:28 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
8 * gsignal.[hc] (g_signal_stop_emission_by_name): added variant
9 to stop signal emissions through a detailed_signal string.
11 * gsignal.c (signal_emit_R) (g_signal_emit_valist): account for
12 the fact that g_value_* functions may cause signal emissons by
13 unlocking the global signal system lock around g_value_* functions.
14 (signal_emit_unlocked_R): renamed this from signal_emit_R() to reflect
15 that this functions acquires the lock on its own now.
17 2001-05-24 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>
19 * makefile.msc.in : changed depndencies to build glib-genmarshal
20 first and statically linked with glib, which makes it independent
21 from the installed glib version. Added new object files to build.
23 * gobject.def : updated
25 Thu May 24 08:52:02 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
27 * gobject.[ch] (g_value_set_object): gpointer, not
30 2001-05-22 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
32 * Makefile.am (bin_SCRIPTS): made 'make distcheck' happy.
34 * gobject.def: Removed g_param_spec_stringc.
36 Tue May 22 02:46:13 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
38 * gobject.c (g_value_set_object): make g_value_set_object()
39 take a gpointer v_object so people don't need to G_OBJECT()
40 cast NULL pointers (C code convenience).
42 Mon May 14 01:49:01 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
44 * gsignal.[hc] (g_signal_handler_is_connected): new function
45 to check whether a handler is still connected to an instance
48 Thu May 10 14:00:48 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
50 * gparamspecs.[hc]: removed g_param_spec_stringc() in lack of
51 evidence of public need.
53 * gsignal.h: added g_signal_disconnect_by_func(),
54 g_signal_block_by_func() and g_signal_unblock_by_func() convenience
55 macros as per owen's request.
57 * gtype.c (SIZEOF_FUNDAMENTAL_INFO): align sizeof (GTypeFundamentalInfo)
58 to size of longs and pointers.
60 2001-05-05 James Henstridge <james@daa.com.au>
62 * Makefile.am: glib-mkenums is not a compiled program, so shouldn't
63 be in the bin_PROGRAMS primary. Put it in bin_SCRIPTS instead, and
64 removed the glib_mkenums_SOURCES var.
66 Thu May 3 06:10:23 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
68 * gobject.c (g_object_set_[q]data_full): Make types of ternary
69 operator correspond. (Fixes compilation errors with Sun CC,
72 Mon Apr 30 20:03:56 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
74 * glib-mkenums (usage): removed \v escaping, newer perl versions don't
75 support this, and it'S probably useless anyways.
77 Sat Apr 28 23:39:42 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
79 * gsignal.[hc]: made signal handler and emission hook ids gulongs.
80 (signal_handlers_foreach_matched_R): only invoke callback for handlers
81 that are not disconnected (id>0).
82 (signal_emit_R): prevent invocation of signal handlers during the
83 emission they were connected within.
85 * glib-mkenums: publically installed perl-script to parse C code
86 enums and generate descriptions thereof.
87 * glib-mkenums.1: assorted man page.
89 2001-04-19 Havoc Pennington <hp@redhat.com>
91 * gobject.c (g_object_get_valist): We were returning junk memory
92 here, because we didn't copy the value (G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS
93 passed to G_VALUE_LCOPY) and then we freed the GValue immediately
94 after. Removed G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS from here; need a
95 G_VALUE_STEAL_CONTENTS or the like if we want this optimization.
97 Wed Apr 18 09:46:56 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
99 * gobject.c gsignal.c: Change C++ comments for FIXME's to
100 C comments. (Patch from Andres Salomon)
102 2001-04-14 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>
104 * gobject.def : updated
106 Mon Apr 9 18:56:15 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
108 * gclosure.c (g_closure_invoke): only require marshal/meta_marshal if
109 we're valid (about to actually do marshalling).
111 Tue Apr 3 20:23:24 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
115 Tue Apr 3 14:06:00 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
117 * gparam.[hc]: added g_param_spec_pool_list() to list pspecs per
118 owner_type. the pspecs are not referenced, so the caller is
119 supposed to have some idea about owner_type not randomly
120 nuking his pspec's. if this is going to provide problems in
121 the future, we can either auto-ref the pspecs, or add a
122 _foreach variant, though the latter would have to invoke
123 the callback while pspec's mutex is acquired, so i just
124 went for the _list variant for now.
126 * gclosure.h (G_CALLBACK): made GCallback a void (*) (void) fucntion.
128 Sat Mar 31 23:55:58 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
131 * gparamspecs.[hc]: applied patch from owen to implement
134 Fri Mar 30 07:34:02 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
136 * gtype.c (type_iface_retrive_holder_info_Wm):
137 * gtypeplugin.c (g_type_plugin_complete_interface_info):
138 * gtypemodule.c (g_type_module_complete_interface_info):
139 change order of instance_type and interface_type so they match
140 the g_type_add_interface_*() API.
142 * gsignal.c (g_signal_emit_valist): always assign C return value
143 location, people depending on unaltered return values after emissions
144 that had no handlers to run need to use g_signal_emitv().
146 * gtype.[hc] (g_type_query): new function to allow querying of
147 class and object size (semantics like g_signal_query()).
148 currently the implementation is better held conservative so as to
149 only support types that are classed and static.
151 2001-03-29 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
153 * gobject.def: Updates.
155 Wed Mar 28 17:04:06 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
157 * gobject.c (object_queue_property): only queue readable properties
158 for notification changes.
160 Thu Mar 22 13:36:50 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
162 * gsignal.c (g_signal_newv): catch G_SIGNAL_RUN_FIRST with a return value.
164 2001-03-21 Martin Baulig <baulig@suse.de>
166 * gboxed.[ch] (g_value_dup_boxed): This takes a `const GValue *'
169 2001-03-18 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
171 * gobject.def: Correct some renamed functions.
173 Sat Mar 17 23:18:36 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
175 * gobject.c (g_object_get_property): minor bug-fix.
177 * gbsearcharray.[hc]: provide a macro for static initialization and
178 functions g_bsearch_array_new() and g_bsearch_array_destroy() for
181 * gboxed.c: introduce G_TYPE_GSTRING, boxed type for GString.
183 * gclosure.[hc]: naming corrections.
185 Fri Mar 9 16:42:08 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
187 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: moved g_strdup_value_contents() into this file as
188 a public function (was static in gobject.c before). it's a bit odd
189 to have that function here, especially since it requires extra includes,
190 but then it doesn't very well fit somewhere else either.
192 * gparamspecs.c: added default/max/min checks to param spec creation
195 2001-03-10 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
197 * gobject.def: Add a couple of missing entries.
199 * Makefile.am (libgobject_1_3_la_LIBADD): Use only on Win32.
201 Fri Mar 9 14:57:17 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
203 * testgruntime.c: test program. covers run first/last/cleanup signal
204 handlers, return value accumulator, signal string returns, and
205 interface types in signal arguments.
207 * gtype.c (g_type_value_table_peek): for interface types without
208 value table, try looking up a value table from an instantiatable
209 prerequisite type (this is safe as an interface may only have
210 one instantiatable prerequisiste).
211 (type_check_is_value_type_U): same here.
213 * gsignal.c (g_signal_newv): assert that return types never have
214 G_SIGNAL_TYPE_STATIC_SCOPE set.
215 (g_signal_newc): only create class closure if the class_offset is not
218 Fri Mar 9 10:14:00 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
220 * gparamspecs.c (g_param_spec_object): use g_type_is_a() to check
221 for object_type being a G_TYPE_OBJECT, not G_TYPE_IS_OBJECT(), since
222 that wouldn't allow interface types.
224 * gtype.c (g_type_interface_add_prerequisite): arg, fixed small cnp bug
225 with bad implications and an off-by-one error.
227 Thu Mar 8 16:34:22 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
229 * gvaluetransform.c: Include <string.h> for memcpy.
231 * gvaluetransform.c (DEFINE_SPRINTF): Remove unnecessary
232 and ANSI-illegal ## token pasting.
234 Thu Mar 8 18:11:52 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
236 * gsignal.c: eek, fixed old hook detail storage code.
238 Thu Mar 8 16:35:48 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
240 * gparamspecs.[hc]: s/g_param_spec_string_c/g_param_spec_stringc/.
242 * gsignal.[hc]: fixed accumulator invocation, implemented emission
243 hooks. and no, neither of these callbacks are called via a closure,
244 language bindings can wrap the accumulator and emission hook
245 interface, they already get parameters marshalled into a GValue array.
246 (g_signal_connect): removed this function as its C specific, doesn't
247 cover the swapped argument, is too close to its broken original
248 gtk_signal_connect() and creates demand for _swapped, _after and
249 _swapped_after variants <brrr>.
250 (g_signal_connectc): convenience macro to connect a C handler
251 func with data, like the old g_signal_connect() plus swapped
255 * gboxed.c: added G_TYPE_VALUE boxed type.
257 Wed Mar 7 19:02:51 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
259 * gtype.c (type_node_add_iface_entry_W): catch when adding an interface
260 to an ancestor of a child that already conforms to this interface.
261 currently we spew a warning here, should we be silent?
262 (g_type_interface_add_prerequisite): new function to add a prerequisite
263 type to an interface, that must succeed an instance is_a prerequisite
264 type check before the interface can be added to an instance. the
265 prerequisite types are also suuported in is_a checks of the interface.
266 (g_type_instance_is_a):
267 (g_type_check_instance_cast):
268 (g_type_check_instance): cleanups and optimizations.
270 (g_type_check_class_cast): same, also prevented these from accepting
271 interface types, as class structures don't nest interfaces.
273 2001-03-07 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
275 * Makefile.am: Avoid rebuilding everything everytime.
277 Wed Mar 7 09:36:33 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
279 * gboxed.[hc]: changed prototype of g_boxed_type_register_static()
280 to contain an optional init function and a hint at whether the
281 boxed structure uses ref counting internally.
282 added g_value_set_boxed_take_ownership().
283 made G_TYPE_BOXED an abstract value type.
285 * genums.[hc]: made G_TYPE_ENUM and G_TYPE_FLAGS abstract value
288 * glib-genmarshal.c: argument type changes, preparation for third-party
291 * gobject.[hc]: cleaned up get/set property code.
292 added g_strdup_value_contents() to improve warnings.
294 * gparam.[hc]: added g_param_value_convert(), taking over responsibility
295 of the old g_value_convert(). added G_PARAM_LAX_VALIDATION flag so
296 validation alterations may be valid a part of the property setting
299 * gparamspecs.[hc]: made value comparisons stable (for sort applications).
300 added GParamSpecValueArray, a param spec for value arrays and
301 GParamSpecClosure. nuked the value exchange functions and
304 * gtype.[hc]: catch unintialized usages of the type system with
305 g_return_val_if_uninitialized(). introduced G_TYPE_FLAG_VALUE_ABSTRACT
306 to flag types that introduce a value table, but can't be used for
307 g_value_init(). cleaned up reserved type ids.
309 * gvalue.[hc]: code cleanups and saner checking.
310 nuked the value exchange API. implemented value transformations, we
311 can't really "convert" values, rather transforms are an anylogy to
312 C casts, real conversions need a param spec for validation, which is
313 why g_param_value_convert() does real conversions now.
315 * gvaluearray.[hc]: new files that implement a GValueArray, a struct
316 that can hold inhomogeneous arrays of value (to that extend that it
317 also allowes undefined values, i.e. G_VALUE_TYPE(value)==0).
318 this is exposed to the type system as a boxed type.
320 * gvaluetransform.c: new file implementing most of the former value
321 exchange functions as single-sided transformations.
323 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: nuked G_TYPE_CCALLBACK, added
324 g_value_set_string_take_ownership().
326 * *.h: s/G_IS_VALUE_/G_VALUE_HOLDS_/.
328 * *.[hc]: many fixes and cleanups.
330 * many warning improvements.
332 Tue Feb 27 18:35:15 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
334 * gobject.c (g_object_get_valist): urg, pass G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS
335 into G_VALUE_LCOPY(), this needs proper documenting.
337 * gparam.c: fixed G_PARAM_USER_MASK.
339 * gtype.c (type_data_make_W):
340 (type_data_last_unref_Wm): fixed invalid memory freeing.
342 * gobject.c (g_object_last_unref): destroy signal handlers associated
343 with object, right before finalization.
345 * gsignal.c (g_signal_parse_name): catch destroyed nodes or signals
346 that don't actually support details.
348 * gobject.[hc]: got rid of property trailers. nuked GObject
349 properties "data" and the "signal" variants.
350 (g_object_connect): new convenience function to do multiple
351 signal connections at once.
352 (g_object_disconnect): likewise, for disconnections.
354 * gparam.[hc] (g_param_spec_pool_lookup): took out trailer support.
356 * gvalue.[hc]: marked g_value_fits_pointer() and g_value_peek_pointer()
357 as private (the latter got renamed from g_value_get_as_pointer()).
359 2001-02-21 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
361 * *.h: Use G_BEGIN_DECLS and G_END_DECLS.
363 * Makefile.am: Use libglib-1.3.la from top_builddir. Invoke
364 libtool with -no-undefined for Win32 and Cygwin.
366 Wed Feb 21 18:31:46 2001 Jonathan Blandford <jrb@redhat.com>
368 * gsignal.h (g_signal_connect): Add g_signal_connect define to
369 make porting from gtk_signal_connect easy.
371 * gsignal.c (g_signal_emit_valist): Use G_TYPE_FROM_INSTANCE
372 (instance) instead of node->itype when initting the value.
374 2001-02-17 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>
376 Applied patch from Soeren Sandmann:
378 * gvaluetypes.c (g_value_get_string): G_CONST_RETURN
380 * gtype.c (g_type_name): G_CONST_RETURN
382 * gsignal.c (g_signal_name): G_CONST_RETURN
384 * gobject-query.c (main): const fix
386 Sat Feb 17 07:58:46 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
388 * genums.h (G_TYPE_IS_FLAGS): patch from sven to fixup
389 G_ENUM_CLASS_TYPE() macro.
391 Sat Feb 17 04:55:35 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
393 * gtype.[hc]: changed collect_format, collect_value() and lcopy_format,
394 lcopy_value() in the GTypeValueTable. the collect functions are now
395 called only once per value, collect_format/lcopy_format are strings
396 that enlist all necessary GTypeCValues to be varargs-collected.
398 * gvalue.h: ranamed STATIC_TAG to G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS to indicate that
399 a value shouldn't copy its contents.
401 * gvaluecollector.h: changed G_VALUE_COLLECT() and G_VALUE_LCOPY()
402 macros to carry an additional argument (flags) that can be used
403 to pass G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS along to the collection functions.
405 * *.c: adapted collect_value() and lcopy_value() functions to the new
406 prototypes, support G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS where apropriate.
408 * gsignal.[hc]: introduced a G_SIGNAL_TYPE_STATIC_SCOPE flag that can
409 be passed along (ORed) with the parameter types, indicating that the
410 emission arguments are to be considered static for the scope of the
411 emission. should be used with care and only if the caller knows that
412 a parameter cannot be destroyed/freed from signal handlers connected
415 Fri Feb 16 07:10:44 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
419 (g_closure_sink): make closure sinking explicit.
422 (g_signal_connect_data):
423 (g_signal_connect_closure):
424 (g_signal_connect_closure_by_id):
425 (g_signal_newv): perform explicit closure sinking.
427 Thu Feb 8 00:31:45 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
429 * gtype.h: added G_TYPE_DEBUG_NONE for/from Eric Lemings ;)
431 2001-02-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
433 * gobject.def: Remove glib_debug_objects.
435 Sun Feb 4 07:30:53 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
437 * gtype.[hc]: changed g_type_init() to take debugging flags
438 initially, a combination of G_TYPE_DEBUG_OBJECTS and
439 G_TYPE_DEBUG_SIGNALS. using the G_TYPE_ prefix is a bit odd
440 here, but basically g_type_int() serves as initialization
441 fucntion for all of GType, GObject, GSignal, so what the heck.
443 * gobject.c: special case debugging code properly.
444 changed glib_trap_object_ref to g_trap_object_ref.
446 * gsignal.c: add signal emission debugging abilities, along with
447 a new trap object g_trap_instance_signals.
449 2001-02-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
451 * Makefile.am (progs_LDADD): Change order of libs to libgobject
452 first, then libglib. Needed for cygwin, says jbdoll@kepri.re.kr.
454 Wed Jan 31 06:19:49 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
456 * gparam.h: gtk-doc sucks for not dealing with #define inside enums.
458 * gtype.[hc]: added G_TYPE_FLAG_RESERVED_ID_BIT, a bit in the type
459 number that's supposed to be left untouched (preserved mainly
460 for the signal code).
462 * *.c: added thread safety code, based on an old patch from sebastian.
463 the remaining thread safety issues are now datalists on pspecs (to be
464 solved im gdataset.c) and gvalue.c where locking concerns value exchange
465 functionality only, and that's soon to be revised.
467 2001-01-27 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
469 * makefile.msc.in: Don't try to compile gmarshal.c on its own.
471 2001-01-24 <alexl@redhat.com>
473 * gclosure.c (g_closure_unref):
474 Don't leak closure->notifiers.
476 2001-01-05 Havoc Pennington <hp@redhat.com>
478 * gparamspecs.c (g_param_spec_enum): set the value_type in the
479 param spec; closes bug 40210
480 (g_param_spec_flags): ditto for flags
482 2001-01-03 Alexander Larsson <alexl@redhat.com>
485 Move glib_debug_objects out of the G_ENABLE_DEBUG #ifdef.
487 Thu Dec 28 11:36:44 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
489 * gbsearcharray.c (upper_power2): disable G_BSEARCH_ALIGN_POWER2
490 fucntionality if DISABLE_MEM_POOLS is defined.
492 * gtype.c: honour DISABLE_MEM_POOLS.
494 * gsignal.c (g_signal_init): flag signal key bsearch array with
495 G_BSEARCH_ALIGN_POWER2 to avoid excessive growth time. honour
498 * gparam.h: added G_PARAM_READWRITE alias for (G_PARAM_READABLE |
501 2000-12-15 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
503 * gobject.def: Update.
505 2000-12-15 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>
507 * gobject.c (g_object_do_class_init): use g_signal_newc
509 * gsignal.c (g_signal_newc): convenience function for signals
511 (g_signal_new_valist): added
512 (g_signal_new): removed
514 Fri Dec 15 04:40:23 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
516 * gparam.[hc]: add an instance member value_type so the default
517 value of the pspec class can be overridden.
519 2000-12-14 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
521 * makefile.mingw.in: Update, include parts from Makefile.am to
522 build gmarshal.[ch]. Some day, we won't need these separate
523 makefiles for Win32 compilation. I hope.
525 * makefile.msc.in: Update. No use trying to build gmarshal.[ch]
526 here, it would require Unixish tools. MSVC users building from CVS
527 sources are out of luck.
529 * gobject.def: Update.
531 Wed Dec 13 09:31:26 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
533 * gparamspecs.[hc]: add G_TYPE_PARAM_BOXED implementation.
535 * gobject.[hc]: minor fixes.
537 Tue Dec 12 23:38:02 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
539 * Makefile.am: _never_ touch oldest-source-stamp.
541 * gobject.[hc]: construct property handling fixes/improvements.
542 fixed trailer handling in get/set property.
544 * gparam.[hc]: implement param spec pool, got rid of param spec
545 hashtable. the most prominent change is that e deal with type
548 2000-12-12 Elliot Lee <sopwith@redhat.com>
551 . You have to 'touch oldest-source-stamp' if you want to avoid having
552 the Makefile constantly rebuild itself.
553 . Fix marshaller generation rules to work with srcdir != builddir
554 (there were issues with trying to run "./glib-genmarshal", etc.)
556 Mon Dec 11 04:44:11 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
558 * gboxed.c: fixed dealing with collection/lcopy of NULL values.
560 * gclosure.h: removed insane ramblings, added G_CALLBACK() a casting
563 * Makefile.am: cleanups, marshaller generation rules.
565 * gmarshal.[hc]: new files with GRuntime standard marshallers.
567 * glib-genmarshal.c: fix log domain, support gruntime standard
568 marshallers, suport G_TYPE_PARAM, come with extern "C" and
571 * glib-genmarshal.1: reflect glib-genmarshal.c updates.
573 * gobject.[hc]: implement object constructor. rework parameter
574 changed notification queueing, we support queue freezes now and
575 don't dispatch from an idle handler anymore.
576 parameter->property rename hassle.
577 implemented ::properties_changed and ::notify::* signals for
578 property change notification (the later supports property names
579 as details). added signal connection and named data properties.
580 (g_signal_connect_object): new function to setup while_alive
582 (g_object_class_install_property): sink properties now, since they
583 are initially floating.
584 (g_object_steal_data):
585 (g_object_set_data_full):
587 (g_object_get_data): set/get data by using g_datalist_*() functions
589 (g_object_queue_param_changed): nuked.
590 (g_object_freeze_notify): start queueing of property changes (freeze/
592 (g_object_notify): announce changes of a certain property directly.
593 (g_object_thaw_notify): process queue of property changes, therefore
594 emitting GObject::notify::detail with detail being the changed
596 (G_OBJECT_WARN_INVALID_PROPERTY_ID): saner macro variant of former
597 G_WARN_INVALID_PARAM_ID().
599 * gparam.[hc]: param specs are now initially floating and need to be
600 sunken with g_param_spec_sink(), support G_TYPE_PARAM values.
601 added G_PARAM_CONSTRUCT and G_PARAM_CONSTRUCT_ONLY parameter flags,
602 required by GObjectClass.constructor().
604 * gparamspecs.[hc]: added GParamSpecParam, GParamSpecPointer and
605 GParamSpecCCallback, param specs for G_TYPE_PARAM, G_TYPE_POINTER
606 and G_TYPE_CCALLBACK respectively.
608 * gsignal.[hc]: cleanups.
609 (signal_id_lookup): after walking the anchestry, try interfaces as well.
610 (g_signal_new): new function to create signals from varargs type list.
611 (g_signal_connect_closure): closure connection variant that works from
613 (g_signal_connect_data): c handler connection variant that works from
615 (g_signal_emit_valist): emit signal for an instance with paraneters
616 collected from a va_list.
617 (g_signal_emit): emit signal, taking parameters from varargs list.
618 (g_signal_emit_by_name): same as g_signal_emit, working from
620 (signal_emit_R): return whether return_value needs to be altered.
622 * gtype.[hc]: set log-domain to GRuntime, i'm slowly getting to all
623 the points that need to reflect the upcoming rename.
624 melt g_type_conforms_to() functionality into g_type_is_a(), as that
625 is what we really want (liskov substitution principle).
626 assorted changes to other files due to conforms_to->is_a.
628 * gvalue.[hc]: implemented g_value_set_instance() that sets a value
629 from an instantiatable type via the value_table's collect_value()
630 function (based on an idea from James Henstridge <james@daa.com.au>).
633 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: implement G_TYPE_CCALLBACK and G_TYPE_PARAM.
635 Wed Nov 29 13:30:05 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
637 * gsignal.c (handlers_find): fix elliots "logic fix" that dereferences
638 NULL nodes if C handlers are searched for specific signals.
640 2000-11-28 Elliot Lee <sopwith@redhat.com>
642 * gsignal.c: Fix warnings about possible use of uninitialized
643 variables, and fix logic that would leave 'node' unset in cases
644 that it might be used in.
646 * glib-genmarshal.c: Fix warning about printf format.
648 2000-11-28 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
650 * gboxed.c: Include <string.h> for memset ().
652 2000-11-22 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
654 * gobject.def: Update.
656 2000-11-20 Havoc Pennington <hp@redhat.com>
658 * gobject.c (g_object_get_data)
660 (g_object_set_data_full)
661 (g_object_steal_data): More convenient data-setting functions
663 Wed Nov 15 20:58:05 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
665 * gtypemodule.c (g_type_module_use): If loading the
666 module fails, don't increment the use count.
668 Thu Nov 9 01:49:43 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
670 * gobject.h (G_WARN_INVALID_PARAM_ID): doh,
671 s/BSE_OBJECT_TYPE_NAME/G_OBJECT_TYPE_NAME/; reported by Maas-Maarten
672 Zeeman <maas@wanadoo.nl>.
674 Mon Nov 13 00:48:39 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
676 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add glib-genmarshal.1
678 2000-11-11 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>

684 * gobject.def: Add missing functions.
686 Sun Nov 5 13:21:28 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
688 * Makefile.am gtypemodule.[ch]: New basic implementation of
689 GTypePlugin interface as a GObject. Dynamically loaded modules can
690 register any number of types and interface on the module.
692 Sun Nov 5 10:25:40 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
694 * gsignal.c (handlers_find): When appending handlers and
695 not matching on signal_id, use hlist->signal_id instead of
696 signal_id. Having the correct signal_id when unreffing
697 the handlers makes things work a lot better.
699 2000-11-05 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
701 * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in (gobject_OBJECTS): Add gtypeplugin.
703 * gobject.def: Update.
705 Sun Nov 5 05:22:55 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
708 fixed a bag full of subtle bugs of immensive screw-up potential in
709 handlers_find(), luckily no one found out about them yet ;)
710 fixed signal_handlers_foreach_matched_R() so it operates on an
711 initial handler list snapshot provided by handlers_find() to work
712 around general reentrancy problems and to avoid multiple callback()
713 invocations on the same handlers.
714 this code is now officially 80% bug free (10% remaining for interface
715 types, and 10% remaining for destroyed signals ;)
717 Sat Nov 4 02:01:33 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
719 * gsignal.c (_g_signals_destroy): valid signal nodes start out at 1.
721 * gtypeplugin.[hc]: new files holding a GTypePlugin interface
722 implementation that provides the API required by GType to deal with
723 dynamically loadable types.
725 * gtype.[hc]: displace any GTypePlugin business to gtypeplugin.h.
727 Fri Nov 3 07:35:00 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
729 * gsignal.[hc]: prefix internal functions with '_'. renamed
730 g_signal_connect_closure() to g_signal_connect_closure_by_id().
731 added g_signal_parse_name() to retrive signal_id and detail quark
732 from a signal name (internal).
734 Wed Nov 1 03:36:54 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
736 * gobject.c (g_object_base_class_finalize): destroy all signals that
737 the finalized obejct type introduced.
739 * gsignal.c (g_signals_destroy): don't require itype to have
742 * gobject.c (g_object_do_finalize): make sure all signal handlers
746 (g_signal_handler_find): only match on non-0 masks.
747 (g_signal_handlers_block_matched):
748 (g_signal_handlers_unblock_matched):
749 (g_signal_handlers_disconnect_matched): new functions to block/unblock
750 or disconnect handlers in groups.
752 2000-10-30 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
754 * gvalue.c (exchange_entries_equal), gparam.c (param_spec_equals):
755 made both functions return gboolean just for the little extra
756 standard conformance now that GEqualFunc is introduced.
758 Mon Oct 30 05:52:45 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
760 * gsignal.c (g_signal_list_ids): get rid of inline documentation owen
761 added, the doc system would ignore it anyways (for some reason not
764 Mon Oct 30 03:00:07 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
766 * gsignal.[hc] (g_signal_list_ids): renamed owen's g_type_signals(),
767 added required mutex locks.
769 Sun Oct 29 02:31:03 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
771 * gsignal.c (g_type_signals): Fix problem where signals
772 with "_" in them appeared twice in the result array.
774 Sun Oct 29 01:58:44 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
776 * gsignal.h: Add g_type_signals() - a function to list
777 all signals for a given type.
779 Sat Oct 28 00:28:09 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
781 * gclosure.c (g_closure_add_marshal_guards): fixed notifier position
782 for post_marshal guard which was off at 0.
784 Fri Oct 27 21:49:31 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
786 * gobject.[hc]: doh, fix argument order in for
787 g_cclosure_new_object_swap and g_cclosure_new_object.
789 2000-10-28 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
791 * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in: Make glib-genmarshal.exe.
793 * glib-genmarshal.c: Conditionalise include of unistd.h.
794 Include <io.h> on Win32.
796 * gobject.def: Add some missing entry points.
798 Fri Oct 27 16:33:41 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
800 * gsignal.[hc]: publically define GSignalInvocationHint structure
801 that gets passed in to closure invocations. added signal details.
802 renamed GSignalType to GSignalFlags to comply with conventions.
803 quite some cleanups and minor fixes. avoid uneccessary handler list
804 walks upon invokation of after handlers. relookup handler list for
805 restarted emissions. preliminary abort normal handler invokation if
806 after handler is encountered.
809 * gclosure.[hc]: moved invocation_hint to the end of the
810 g_closure_invoke() arguments as sugegsted by kenelson.
811 also made it a gpointer to be more generic. the invocation_hint
812 is a caller specific thing that can be used to pass additional
813 data in to closure invocations as documented with the caller
814 invoking the closure.
816 Fri Oct 27 05:35:14 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
818 * gobject.c (g_object_watch_closure): fixed realloc bug, reported
821 * gsignal.c (g_signal_newv): fixed deadlock scenarion where
822 g_signal_lookup() would be called with the signal lock being
823 held. reported by james henstridge.
825 * gclosure.c (g_closure_set_meta_marshal): fixed memcpy/overwrite bug
828 2000-10-26 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
830 * gbsearcharray.c (bsearch_array_insert): Fix gccisms (pointer
831 arithmetic on void pointer, label without statement following.
833 * gtype.c (type_node_fundamental_info): Don't apply unary minus to
834 result of sizeof operator, it can be unsigned. Cast first to
837 * gobject.def: Add new functions.
839 * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in: Add new objects.
841 2000-10-26 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
843 * Makefile.am: Remove empty SUBDIRS line _again_, as that _still_
844 prevents 'make dist' from working.
846 Wed Oct 25 19:11:03 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
848 * gbsearcharray.h (g_bsearch_array_get_nth): Don't use implicit
849 casts from void * since this will get included from C++ too
852 Thu Oct 26 00:30:27 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
854 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: added g_value_set_static_string().
856 * gboxed.[hc]: const corrections. added g_value_set_static_boxed().
858 Wed Oct 25 20:27:02 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
860 * gtype.c (g_type_free_instance): for the moment, freeing object
861 structures will fill their memory portion with 0xAA. there's a
862 FIXME there, remove this line at a later point.
864 Tue Oct 24 23:10:26 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
867 * glib-genmarshal.c: added publically installed marshaller generator.
869 * gtype.h: added G_TYPE_INSTANCE_GET_INTERFACE() to retrive a certain
870 interface VTable from instances.
872 Mon Oct 23 08:28:15 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
874 * gobject.[hc]: new functions for closure maintenance:
875 (g_object_watch_closure): maintain validity of the object and
876 the closure for objects that are used as data part of a closure.
877 (g_cclosure_new_object): convenience function to create C closures
878 that have an object as data argument.
879 (g_closure_new_object): convenience function to create closures
880 that have an object as data argument.
882 * gclosure.[hc]: implementation of GClosure mechanism.
883 a closure is basically an encapsulation of a callback function
884 and its environment. ideally, most places supporting callback
885 functions will simply take a GClosure* pointer and thus unify
886 callback environments wrg destroy notification etc.
887 GClosure provides destroy notifiers for arbitrary data pointers,
888 reference counting, invalidation notification (it can be invalidated
889 which is merely a deactivate state) and a marshallinbg abstraction.
890 GCClosure is also provided in these files, they present a specialized
891 GClosure implementation for C language callbacks.
893 * genum.c: macro cleanups.
895 * gboxed.[hc]: new files, for boxed type abstraction.
896 (g_boxed_copy): copy a boxed structure
897 (g_boxed_free): free a boxed structure
899 (g_value_get_boxed): standard GValue functions for boxed types
900 (g_boxed_type_register_static): convenience function for easy
901 introduction of new G_TYPE_BOXED derivatives.
903 * gparam.[hc]: introduced g_param_type_register_static(), a short hand
904 for creation of new GParamSpec derived types.
906 * gtype.[hc]: many fixes, introduced ability to flag individual
907 type nodes as ABSTRACT upon registration, added value_peek_pointer()
908 to the value table to peek at GValue contents as a pointer for types
909 that support this. fixed up GValue checks.
911 * gvalue.[hc]: added g_value_fits_pointer() and g_value_get_as_pointer()
912 to peek at the value contents as pointer.
914 * *.[hc]: adaptions to type macro fixes and changes in the type
917 * many const corrections over the place.
919 Sat Oct 21 02:49:56 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
921 * gtype.c (g_type_conforms_to): this function basically behaves like
922 and is_a check, except that it _additionally_ features interfaces
923 for instantiatable types. enforce this in the second branch as well
924 (`type' conforms_to `type') even if `type' is not an interface type.
926 Fri Oct 20 15:31:04 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
928 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: added G_TYPE_POINTER implementation from jrb.
932 * gvaluetypes.c: added GTypeValueTable.value_peek_pointer and
933 suitable implementations of this for G_TYPE_STRING, G_TYPE_OBJECT
936 Mon Aug 21 04:13:37 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
938 * gbsearcharray.[hc]: long standing needed generic implementation
939 of a binary searchable, sorted and dynamically sized array.
941 2000-10-15 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
943 * Makefile.am (BUILT_EXTRA_DIST): New variable.
944 (dist-hook): Handle $(BUILT_EXTRA_DIST).
945 (*): Remove traces of @STRIP_{BEGIN,END}@.
947 2000-09-29 Martin Baulig <baulig@suse.de>
949 Several minor ANSI C fixes.
952 * gtype.c (type_class_init):
953 `(gpointer) bnode->data->class.class_init_base'
954 in call to g_slist_prepend() and
955 'GBaseInitFunc class_init_base = (GBaseInitFunc) slist->data'.
957 * gobject.c: Put text following #endif into comments.
959 2000-09-25 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
961 * Makefile.am: Remove empty SUBDIRS line, as that prevents make
964 Sat Sep 9 20:04:13 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
966 * gobject.c (g_object_last_unref): Move call to
967 g_type_free_instance() here from g_object_do_finalize,
968 since g_type_free_instance() can unload the object's
971 2000-07-27 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
973 * gobject.c: No, don't mark glib_debug_objects for export here,
974 it's handled specially in gtktypeutils.c.
976 * gobject.def: Export g_type_fundamental_last (the function).
978 2000-07-26 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
981 * gobject.c: Mark glib_debug_objects for export/import as it is
984 Sun Jul 23 17:23:35 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
986 * gtype.[hc]: make g_type_fundamental_last() a function, avoiding all
987 that extern variable clutter and avoiding further problems with thread
990 2000-07-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
995 * gtype.c: Shut up Sun's picky compiler.
997 2000-07-14 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
999 * gobject.def: Add g_type_get_plugin.
1001 Thu Jul 13 02:07:54 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1003 * gparam.c (g_param_value_defaults): default initialize the temporary
1004 default value, instead of nuking the caller's value contents.
1006 2000-07-11 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
1008 * gtype.c (g_type_get_plugin): Don't return just 0 or 1.
1010 Tue Jul 11 02:48:13 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1012 * gtype.[hc]: removed g_type_is_dynamic() and added g_type_get_plugin().
1014 2000-07-10 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
1016 * gobject-query.c: Include ../config.h for HAVE_UNISTD_H. Use it
1017 to guard inclusion of <unistd.h>.
1019 * gtype.h: Fix copy-paste errors in the ifdefs on how to declare a
1020 variable for export. Call the macro GOBJECT_VAR.
1022 * gtype.c: Declare _g_type_fundamental_last for export here, too.
1023 (type_node_any_new): Use only constant expressions for sizeof
1024 operator (for instance MSVC requires this).
1026 * makefile.mingw.in: Define GOBJECT_COMPILATION.
1028 Sun Jul 9 21:21:46 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
1030 * genums.c: Move string.h include into the .c file
1031 instead of where it was in the .h file by mistake.
1033 Thu Jul 6 15:30:27 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
1035 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): dist fixes.
1037 * gobject.c: Add a global variable glib_debug_objects
1038 (not in header file) to control object tracing.
1040 2000-07-01 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
1042 * gobject.def: Update added and renamed entry points.
1044 * makefile.mingw.in: Add gvaluetypes.o.
1046 Thu Jun 29 16:02:07 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
1048 * gobject.c:include string.h for memset
1049 * genums.h: include string.h for strcpy
1050 * gvalue.c: include string.h for memset, memcpy.
1052 Sat Jun 24 23:03:04 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1054 * gtype.[hc]: provide G_TYPE_CHAR, G_TYPE_UCHAR, G_TYPE_BOOLEAN,
1055 G_TYPE_INT, G_TYPE_UINT, G_TYPE_LONG, G_TYPE_ULONG, G_TYPE_FLOAT,
1056 G_TYPE_DOUBLE and G_TYPE_STRING fundamental types.
1057 added a GTypeValueTable* pointer to GTypeInfo structure for types
1058 to implement GValue handling functions.
1059 GTypeValueTable contains the following members:
1060 value_init(): initialize a GValue structure.
1061 value_free(): free GValue structure contents (optional).
1062 value_copy(): copy one GValue contents to another GValue structure of
1063 collect_type: varargs collection type for the first variable argument
1064 to be collected by collect_value().
1065 collect_value(): variable arguments collection function (optional).
1066 lcopy_type: varargs collection type for the first variable argument
1067 to be location copyied by lcopy_value().
1068 lcopy_value(): variable arguments location copy function (optional).
1069 g_type_value_table_peek(): new function to retrive the GTypeValueTable*
1070 for a type node. ValueTables get inherited from parent types, unless
1071 overridden through the GTypeInfo structure. internally, GTypeValueTable
1072 support means an added overhead of one pointer per static or used
1074 g_type_add_class_cache_func(): provide a cache_func/data pair to be
1075 called prior to a type nodes last_unref() function, this can be used
1076 to prevent premature class destruction. multiple installed cache_func()
1077 will be chained upon last_unref() untill one of them returns TRUE.
1078 the cache_func()s have to check the class id passed in to figure whether
1079 they actually want to cache the class of this type (since all classes
1080 are routed through the cache_func() chain).
1081 g_type_remove_class_cache_func(): remove a previously installed
1082 cache_func/data pair. the cache maintained by this function has to be
1083 clear when calling g_type_remove_class_cache_func() to avoid leaks.
1084 g_type_class_unref_uncached(): class unref function for cache_func()
1085 implementations, unreferences a class omitting the cache chain (and
1086 therefore unref->cache->unref->... loops).
1088 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: provide the value setters/getters for the primitive
1089 fundamental types boolean, char, uchar, int, uint, long, ulong, float,
1092 * gvalue.[hc]: provide G_TYPE_IS_VALUE() in terms of whether a
1093 GTypeValueTable is provided for this type.
1094 removed g_value_init_default(), g_value_validate(), g_value_defaults(),
1095 g_value_set_default() and g_values_cmp() as these are supplied by the
1097 moved g_values_exchange() into the "implementation details" section,
1098 since it just provides the underlying functionality for
1101 * gvaluecollector.h: renamed the varargs value container from
1102 GParamCValue to GTypeCValue as the value collection methods are
1103 supplied by the type system now.
1104 G_PARAM_COLLECT_VALUE() and G_PARAM_LCOPY_VALUE() got renamed to
1105 G_VALUE_COLLECT() and G_VALUE_LCOPY() and operate without a
1106 GParamSpec structure now.
1108 * genums.h: macros cleanups/fixes.
1110 * genum.c: provide G_TYPE_ENUM and G_TYPE_FLAGS type
1111 and assorted g_value_{s|g}et_{enum|flags}() implementations.
1114 provide G_IS_VALUE_OBJECT(), G_TYPE_OBJECT ValueTable methods
1115 and g_value_{s|g}et_object().
1117 * gparam.[hc]: reduced class to value_set_default(),
1118 value_validate() and values_cmp(). also parameters now need to fill
1119 in a GType value_type; field to indicate the GValue type they
1120 are handling. provide g_param_value_set_default(),
1121 g_param_value_defaults(), g_param_value_validate() and
1122 g_param_values_cmp().
1124 * gparamspecs.[hc]: got rid of the g_value_* functions and
1125 the G_IS_VALUE_* macros. adapted param spec implementations
1126 according to the GParamSpecClass changes.
1128 Sat Jun 10 08:38:27 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1130 * gtype.c (type_class_init): fetch the nth iface entry of the
1131 type node in the nth loop iteration, not alwys the first.
1132 bug discovered by Walt Pohl <cher@suitware.com>.
1133 (type_data_finalize_class_ifaces): same here, cut and paste
1136 Wed Jun 7 09:21:05 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
1138 * Makefile.am (INCLUDES): Add top_builddir so glibconfig.h
1139 is found properly when build srcdir != builddir. (Patch from
1142 2000-05-13 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
1146 * gobject.rc.in: New files, for Win32 (mingw) build.
1148 * Makefile.am: Add to EXTRA_DIST. Add rules to produce the
1149 corresponding non-*.in files.
1151 * gtype.h: (Win32:) Mark _g_type_fundamental_last for
1152 export/import from DLL.
1154 Fri May 5 01:15:48 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1156 * gtype.h: add reserved fundamental ids for gtk types (for transition
1157 time). added G_TYPE_FUNDAMENTAL_MAX for gtk.

1161 * glib-gobject.c (g_object_base_class_finalize): oops, don't unset
1162 n_params prior to destructing them.
1164 Tue Apr 11 04:28:10 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1166 * fixed a couple of bugs in the initial parameter/object
1167 implementations, after getting beast running on GObject and GValue.
1169 Fri Apr 7 04:27:49 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1171 * glib-gobject.[hc]: completed parameter set/get implementations,
1172 along with asyncronous parameter changed notification queue.
1174 Sun Apr 2 04:54:36 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1176 * glib-gobject.[hc]: GObject implementation, that is facilities
1177 for setting/getting quarked data and reference counting.
1179 * glib-gparamspecs.[hc]: first actuall parameter implementations
1180 for GLib, so far we have: char, uchar, bool, int, uint, long,
1181 ulong, enum, flags, float, double, string and object. each of these
1182 GParamSpecs is a new instantiatable type in its own respect,
1183 so the .c file derives 13 new types from G_TYPE_PARAM and
1184 defines over 50 (*2) conversion facilities.
1186 * glib-gvaluecollector.h: generic varargs handling stubs for
1187 GParamSpecs, private header file (does get installed for
1188 inclusion into user code though).
1190 * glib-gvalue.[hc]: GValue functionality implementation.
1192 * glib-gparam.[hc]: basis GParamSpec implementation for
1193 the virtual base type G_TYPE_PARAM.
1195 * glib-genums.[hc]: enum/flags type implementation, based on
1198 * glib-gtype.[hc]: GLib Type System implementation, heavily
1199 based on BSE's dynamic type system.
