1 Thu Mar 8 18:11:52 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
3 * gsignal.c: eek, fixed old hook detail storage code.
5 Thu Mar 8 16:35:48 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
7 * gparamspecs.[hc]: s/g_param_spec_string_c/g_param_spec_stringc/.
9 * gsignal.[hc]: fixed accumulator invocation, implemented emission
10 hooks. and no, neither of these callbacks are called via a closure,
11 language bindings can wrap the accumulator and emission hook
12 interface, they already get parameters marshalled into a GValue array.
13 (g_signal_connect): removed this function as its C specific, doesn't
14 cover the swapped argument, is too close to its broken original
15 gtk_signal_connect() and creates demand for _swapped, _after and
16 _swapped_after variants <brrr>.
17 (g_signal_connectc): convenience macro to connect a C handler
18 func with data, like the old g_signal_connect() plus swapped
22 * gboxed.c: added G_TYPE_VALUE boxed type.
24 Wed Mar 7 19:02:51 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
26 * gtype.c (type_node_add_iface_entry_W): catch when adding an interface
27 to an ancestor of a child that already conforms to this interface.
28 currently we spew a warning here, should we be silent?
29 (g_type_interface_add_prerequisite): new function to add a prerequisite
30 type to an interface, that must succeed an instance is_a prerequisite
31 type check before the interface can be added to an instance. the
32 prerequisite types are also suuported in is_a checks of the interface.
33 (g_type_instance_is_a):
34 (g_type_check_instance_cast):
35 (g_type_check_instance): cleanups and optimizations.
37 (g_type_check_class_cast): same, also prevented these from accepting
38 interface types, as class structures don't nest interfaces.
40 2001-03-07 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
42 * Makefile.am: Avoid rebuilding everything everytime.
44 Wed Mar 7 09:36:33 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
46 * gboxed.[hc]: changed prototype of g_boxed_type_register_static()
47 to contain an optional init function and a hint at whether the
48 boxed structure uses ref counting internally.
49 added g_value_set_boxed_take_ownership().
50 made G_TYPE_BOXED an abstract value type.
52 * genums.[hc]: made G_TYPE_ENUM and G_TYPE_FLAGS abstract value
55 * glib-genmarshal.c: argument type changes, preparation for third-party
58 * gobject.[hc]: cleaned up get/set property code.
59 added g_strdup_value_contents() to improve warnings.
61 * gparam.[hc]: added g_param_value_convert(), taking over responsibility
62 of the old g_value_convert(). added G_PARAM_LAX_VALIDATION flag so
63 validation alterations may be valid a part of the property setting
66 * gparamspecs.[hc]: made value comparisons stable (for sort applications).
67 added GParamSpecValueArray, a param spec for value arrays and
68 GParamSpecClosure. nuked the value exchange functions and
71 * gtype.[hc]: catch unintialized usages of the type system with
72 g_return_val_if_uninitialized(). introduced G_TYPE_FLAG_VALUE_ABSTRACT
73 to flag types that introduce a value table, but can't be used for
74 g_value_init(). cleaned up reserved type ids.
76 * gvalue.[hc]: code cleanups and saner checking.
77 nuked the value exchange API. implemented value transformations, we
78 can't really "convert" values, rather transforms are an anylogy to
79 C casts, real conversions need a param spec for validation, which is
80 why g_param_value_convert() does real conversions now.
82 * gvaluearray.[hc]: new files that implement a GValueArray, a struct
83 that can hold inhomogeneous arrays of value (to that extend that it
84 also allowes undefined values, i.e. G_VALUE_TYPE(value)==0).
85 this is exposed to the type system as a boxed type.
87 * gvaluetransform.c: new file implementing most of the former value
88 exchange functions as single-sided transformations.
90 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: nuked G_TYPE_CCALLBACK, added
91 g_value_set_string_take_ownership().
93 * *.h: s/G_IS_VALUE_/G_VALUE_HOLDS_/.
95 * *.[hc]: many fixes and cleanups.
97 * many warning improvements.
99 Tue Feb 27 18:35:15 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
101 * gobject.c (g_object_get_valist): urg, pass G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS
102 into G_VALUE_LCOPY(), this needs proper documenting.
104 * gparam.c: fixed G_PARAM_USER_MASK.
106 * gtype.c (type_data_make_W):
107 (type_data_last_unref_Wm): fixed invalid memory freeing.
109 * gobject.c (g_object_last_unref): destroy signal handlers associated
110 with object, right before finalization.
112 * gsignal.c (g_signal_parse_name): catch destroyed nodes or signals
113 that don't actually support details.
115 * gobject.[hc]: got rid of property trailers. nuked GObject
116 properties "data" and the "signal" variants.
117 (g_object_connect): new convenience function to do multiple
118 signal connections at once.
119 (g_object_disconnect): likewise, for disconnections.
121 * gparam.[hc] (g_param_spec_pool_lookup): took out trailer support.
123 * gvalue.[hc]: marked g_value_fits_pointer() and g_value_peek_pointer()
124 as private (the latter got renamed from g_value_get_as_pointer()).
126 Wed Feb 21 18:31:46 2001 Jonathan Blandford <jrb@redhat.com>
128 * gsignal.h (g_signal_connect): Add g_signal_connect define to
129 make porting from gtk_signal_connect easy.
131 * gsignal.c (g_signal_emit_valist): Use G_TYPE_FROM_INSTANCE
132 (instance) instead of node->itype when initting the value.
134 2001-02-17 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>
136 Applied patch from Soeren Sandmann:
138 * gvaluetypes.c (g_value_get_string): G_CONST_RETURN
140 * gtype.c (g_type_name): G_CONST_RETURN
142 * gsignal.c (g_signal_name): G_CONST_RETURN
144 * gobject-query.c (main): const fix
146 Sat Feb 17 07:58:46 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
148 * genums.h (G_TYPE_IS_FLAGS): patch from sven to fixup
149 G_ENUM_CLASS_TYPE() macro.
151 Sat Feb 17 04:55:35 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
153 * gtype.[hc]: changed collect_format, collect_value() and lcopy_format,
154 lcopy_value() in the GTypeValueTable. the collect functions are now
155 called only once per value, collect_format/lcopy_format are strings
156 that enlist all necessary GTypeCValues to be varargs-collected.
158 * gvalue.h: ranamed STATIC_TAG to G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS to indicate that
159 a value shouldn't copy its contents.
161 * gvaluecollector.h: changed G_VALUE_COLLECT() and G_VALUE_LCOPY()
162 macros to carry an additional argument (flags) that can be used
163 to pass G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS along to the collection functions.
165 * *.c: adapted collect_value() and lcopy_value() functions to the new
166 prototypes, support G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS where apropriate.
168 * gsignal.[hc]: introduced a G_SIGNAL_TYPE_STATIC_SCOPE flag that can
169 be passed along (ORed) with the parameter types, indicating that the
170 emission arguments are to be considered static for the scope of the
171 emission. should be used with care and only if the caller knows that
172 a parameter cannot be destroyed/freed from signal handlers connected
175 Fri Feb 16 07:10:44 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
179 (g_closure_sink): make closure sinking explicit.
182 (g_signal_connect_data):
183 (g_signal_connect_closure):
184 (g_signal_connect_closure_by_id):
185 (g_signal_newv): perform explicit closure sinking.
187 Thu Feb 8 00:31:45 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
189 * gtype.h: added G_TYPE_DEBUG_NONE for/from Eric Lemings ;)
191 2001-02-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
193 * gobject.def: Remove glib_debug_objects.
195 Sun Feb 4 07:30:53 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
197 * gtype.[hc]: changed g_type_init() to take debugging flags
198 initially, a combination of G_TYPE_DEBUG_OBJECTS and
199 G_TYPE_DEBUG_SIGNALS. using the G_TYPE_ prefix is a bit odd
200 here, but basically g_type_int() serves as initialization
201 fucntion for all of GType, GObject, GSignal, so what the heck.
203 * gobject.c: special case debugging code properly.
204 changed glib_trap_object_ref to g_trap_object_ref.
206 * gsignal.c: add signal emission debugging abilities, along with
207 a new trap object g_trap_instance_signals.
209 2001-02-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
211 * Makefile.am (progs_LDADD): Change order of libs to libgobject
212 first, then libglib. Needed for cygwin, says jbdoll@kepri.re.kr.
214 Wed Jan 31 06:19:49 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
216 * gparam.h: gtk-doc sucks for not dealing with #define inside enums.
218 * gtype.[hc]: added G_TYPE_FLAG_RESERVED_ID_BIT, a bit in the type
219 number that's supposed to be left untouched (preserved mainly
220 for the signal code).
222 * *.c: added thread safety code, based on an old patch from sebastian.
223 the remaining thread safety issues are now datalists on pspecs (to be
224 solved im gdataset.c) and gvalue.c where locking concerns value exchange
225 functionality only, and that's soon to be revised.
227 2001-01-27 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
229 * makefile.msc.in: Don't try to compile gmarshal.c on its own.
231 2001-01-24 <alexl@redhat.com>
233 * gclosure.c (g_closure_unref):
234 Don't leak closure->notifiers.
236 2001-01-05 Havoc Pennington <hp@redhat.com>
238 * gparamspecs.c (g_param_spec_enum): set the value_type in the
239 param spec; closes bug 40210
240 (g_param_spec_flags): ditto for flags
242 2001-01-03 Alexander Larsson <alexl@redhat.com>
245 Move glib_debug_objects out of the G_ENABLE_DEBUG #ifdef.
247 Thu Dec 28 11:36:44 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
249 * gbsearcharray.c (upper_power2): disable G_BSEARCH_ALIGN_POWER2
250 fucntionality if DISABLE_MEM_POOLS is defined.
252 * gtype.c: honour DISABLE_MEM_POOLS.
254 * gsignal.c (g_signal_init): flag signal key bsearch array with
255 G_BSEARCH_ALIGN_POWER2 to avoid excessive growth time. honour
258 * gparam.h: added G_PARAM_READWRITE alias for (G_PARAM_READABLE |
261 2000-12-15 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
263 * gobject.def: Update.
265 2000-12-15 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>
267 * gobject.c (g_object_do_class_init): use g_signal_newc
269 * gsignal.c (g_signal_newc): convenience function for signals
271 (g_signal_new_valist): added
272 (g_signal_new): removed
274 Fri Dec 15 04:40:23 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
276 * gparam.[hc]: add an instance member value_type so the default
277 value of the pspec class can be overridden.
279 2000-12-14 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
281 * makefile.mingw.in: Update, include parts from Makefile.am to
282 build gmarshal.[ch]. Some day, we won't need these separate
283 makefiles for Win32 compilation. I hope.
285 * makefile.msc.in: Update. No use trying to build gmarshal.[ch]
286 here, it would require Unixish tools. MSVC users building from CVS
287 sources are out of luck.
289 * gobject.def: Update.
291 Wed Dec 13 09:31:26 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
293 * gparamspecs.[hc]: add G_TYPE_PARAM_BOXED implementation.
295 * gobject.[hc]: minor fixes.
297 Tue Dec 12 23:38:02 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
299 * Makefile.am: _never_ touch oldest-source-stamp.
301 * gobject.[hc]: construct property handling fixes/improvements.
302 fixed trailer handling in get/set property.
304 * gparam.[hc]: implement param spec pool, got rid of param spec
305 hashtable. the most prominent change is that e deal with type
308 2000-12-12 Elliot Lee <sopwith@redhat.com>
311 . You have to 'touch oldest-source-stamp' if you want to avoid having
312 the Makefile constantly rebuild itself.
313 . Fix marshaller generation rules to work with srcdir != builddir
314 (there were issues with trying to run "./glib-genmarshal", etc.)
316 Mon Dec 11 04:44:11 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
318 * gboxed.c: fixed dealing with collection/lcopy of NULL values.
320 * gclosure.h: removed insane ramblings, added G_CALLBACK() a casting
323 * Makefile.am: cleanups, marshaller generation rules.
325 * gmarshal.[hc]: new files with GRuntime standard marshallers.
327 * glib-genmarshal.c: fix log domain, support gruntime standard
328 marshallers, suport G_TYPE_PARAM, come with extern "C" and
331 * glib-genmarshal.1: reflect glib-genmarshal.c updates.
333 * gobject.[hc]: implement object constructor. rework parameter
334 changed notification queueing, we support queue freezes now and
335 don't dispatch from an idle handler anymore.
336 parameter->property rename hassle.
337 implemented ::properties_changed and ::notify::* signals for
338 property change notification (the later supports property names
339 as details). added signal connection and named data properties.
340 (g_signal_connect_object): new function to setup while_alive
342 (g_object_class_install_property): sink properties now, since they
343 are initially floating.
344 (g_object_steal_data):
345 (g_object_set_data_full):
347 (g_object_get_data): set/get data by using g_datalist_*() functions
349 (g_object_queue_param_changed): nuked.
350 (g_object_freeze_notify): start queueing of property changes (freeze/
352 (g_object_notify): announce changes of a certain property directly.
353 (g_object_thaw_notify): process queue of property changes, therefore
354 emitting GObject::notify::detail with detail being the changed
356 (G_OBJECT_WARN_INVALID_PROPERTY_ID): saner macro variant of former
357 G_WARN_INVALID_PARAM_ID().
359 * gparam.[hc]: param specs are now initially floating and need to be
360 sunken with g_param_spec_sink(), support G_TYPE_PARAM values.
361 added G_PARAM_CONSTRUCT and G_PARAM_CONSTRUCT_ONLY parameter flags,
362 required by GObjectClass.constructor().
364 * gparamspecs.[hc]: added GParamSpecParam, GParamSpecPointer and
365 GParamSpecCCallback, param specs for G_TYPE_PARAM, G_TYPE_POINTER
366 and G_TYPE_CCALLBACK respectively.
368 * gsignal.[hc]: cleanups.
369 (signal_id_lookup): after walking the anchestry, try interfaces as well.
370 (g_signal_new): new function to create signals from varargs type list.
371 (g_signal_connect_closure): closure connection variant that works from
373 (g_signal_connect_data): c handler connection variant that works from
375 (g_signal_emit_valist): emit signal for an instance with paraneters
376 collected from a va_list.
377 (g_signal_emit): emit signal, taking parameters from varargs list.
378 (g_signal_emit_by_name): same as g_signal_emit, working from
380 (signal_emit_R): return whether return_value needs to be altered.
382 * gtype.[hc]: set log-domain to GRuntime, i'm slowly getting to all
383 the points that need to reflect the upcoming rename.
384 melt g_type_conforms_to() functionality into g_type_is_a(), as that
385 is what we really want (liskov substitution principle).
386 assorted changes to other files due to conforms_to->is_a.
388 * gvalue.[hc]: implemented g_value_set_instance() that sets a value
389 from an instantiatable type via the value_table's collect_value()
390 function (based on an idea from James Henstridge <james@daa.com.au>).
393 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: implement G_TYPE_CCALLBACK and G_TYPE_PARAM.
395 Wed Nov 29 13:30:05 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
397 * gsignal.c (handlers_find): fix elliots "logic fix" that dereferences
398 NULL nodes if C handlers are searched for specific signals.
400 2000-11-28 Elliot Lee <sopwith@redhat.com>
402 * gsignal.c: Fix warnings about possible use of uninitialized
403 variables, and fix logic that would leave 'node' unset in cases
404 that it might be used in.
406 * glib-genmarshal.c: Fix warning about printf format.
408 2000-11-28 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
410 * gboxed.c: Include <string.h> for memset ().
412 2000-11-22 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
414 * gobject.def: Update.
416 2000-11-20 Havoc Pennington <hp@redhat.com>
418 * gobject.c (g_object_get_data)
420 (g_object_set_data_full)
421 (g_object_steal_data): More convenient data-setting functions
423 Wed Nov 15 20:58:05 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
425 * gtypemodule.c (g_type_module_use): If loading the
426 module fails, don't increment the use count.
428 Thu Nov 9 01:49:43 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
430 * gobject.h (G_WARN_INVALID_PARAM_ID): doh,
431 s/BSE_OBJECT_TYPE_NAME/G_OBJECT_TYPE_NAME/; reported by Maas-Maarten
432 Zeeman <maas@wanadoo.nl>.
434 Mon Nov 13 00:48:39 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
436 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add glib-genmarshal.1
438 2000-11-11 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
440 * gtypemodule.c: Include stdlib.h for exit().
442 * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in (gobject_OBJECTS): Add gtypemodule.
444 * gobject.def: Add missing functions.
446 Sun Nov 5 13:21:28 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
448 * Makefile.am gtypemodule.[ch]: New basic implementation of
449 GTypePlugin interface as a GObject. Dynamically loaded modules can
450 register any number of types and interface on the module.
452 Sun Nov 5 10:25:40 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
454 * gsignal.c (handlers_find): When appending handlers and
455 not matching on signal_id, use hlist->signal_id instead of
456 signal_id. Having the correct signal_id when unreffing
457 the handlers makes things work a lot better.
459 2000-11-05 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
461 * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in (gobject_OBJECTS): Add gtypeplugin.
463 * gobject.def: Update.
465 Sun Nov 5 05:22:55 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
468 fixed a bag full of subtle bugs of immensive screw-up potential in
469 handlers_find(), luckily no one found out about them yet ;)
470 fixed signal_handlers_foreach_matched_R() so it operates on an
471 initial handler list snapshot provided by handlers_find() to work
472 around general reentrancy problems and to avoid multiple callback()
473 invocations on the same handlers.
474 this code is now officially 80% bug free (10% remaining for interface
475 types, and 10% remaining for destroyed signals ;)
477 Sat Nov 4 02:01:33 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
479 * gsignal.c (_g_signals_destroy): valid signal nodes start out at 1.
481 * gtypeplugin.[hc]: new files holding a GTypePlugin interface
482 implementation that provides the API required by GType to deal with
483 dynamically loadable types.
485 * gtype.[hc]: displace any GTypePlugin business to gtypeplugin.h.
487 Fri Nov 3 07:35:00 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
489 * gsignal.[hc]: prefix internal functions with '_'. renamed
490 g_signal_connect_closure() to g_signal_connect_closure_by_id().
491 added g_signal_parse_name() to retrive signal_id and detail quark
492 from a signal name (internal).
494 Wed Nov 1 03:36:54 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
496 * gobject.c (g_object_base_class_finalize): destroy all signals that
497 the finalized obejct type introduced.
499 * gsignal.c (g_signals_destroy): don't require itype to have
502 * gobject.c (g_object_do_finalize): make sure all signal handlers
506 (g_signal_handler_find): only match on non-0 masks.
507 (g_signal_handlers_block_matched):
508 (g_signal_handlers_unblock_matched):
509 (g_signal_handlers_disconnect_matched): new functions to block/unblock
510 or disconnect handlers in groups.
512 2000-10-30 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
514 * gvalue.c (exchange_entries_equal), gparam.c (param_spec_equals):
515 made both functions return gboolean just for the little extra
516 standard conformance now that GEqualFunc is introduced.
518 Mon Oct 30 05:52:45 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
520 * gsignal.c (g_signal_list_ids): get rid of inline documentation owen
521 added, the doc system would ignore it anyways (for some reason not
524 Mon Oct 30 03:00:07 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
526 * gsignal.[hc] (g_signal_list_ids): renamed owen's g_type_signals(),
527 added required mutex locks.
529 Sun Oct 29 02:31:03 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
531 * gsignal.c (g_type_signals): Fix problem where signals
532 with "_" in them appeared twice in the result array.
534 Sun Oct 29 01:58:44 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
536 * gsignal.h: Add g_type_signals() - a function to list
537 all signals for a given type.
539 Sat Oct 28 00:28:09 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
541 * gclosure.c (g_closure_add_marshal_guards): fixed notifier position
542 for post_marshal guard which was off at 0.
544 Fri Oct 27 21:49:31 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
546 * gobject.[hc]: doh, fix argument order in for
547 g_cclosure_new_object_swap and g_cclosure_new_object.
549 2000-10-28 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
551 * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in: Make glib-genmarshal.exe.
553 * glib-genmarshal.c: Conditionalise include of unistd.h.
554 Include <io.h> on Win32.
556 * gobject.def: Add some missing entry points.
558 Fri Oct 27 16:33:41 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
560 * gsignal.[hc]: publically define GSignalInvocationHint structure
561 that gets passed in to closure invocations. added signal details.
562 renamed GSignalType to GSignalFlags to comply with conventions.
563 quite some cleanups and minor fixes. avoid uneccessary handler list
564 walks upon invokation of after handlers. relookup handler list for
565 restarted emissions. preliminary abort normal handler invokation if
566 after handler is encountered.
569 * gclosure.[hc]: moved invocation_hint to the end of the
570 g_closure_invoke() arguments as sugegsted by kenelson.
571 also made it a gpointer to be more generic. the invocation_hint
572 is a caller specific thing that can be used to pass additional
573 data in to closure invocations as documented with the caller
574 invoking the closure.
576 Fri Oct 27 05:35:14 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
578 * gobject.c (g_object_watch_closure): fixed realloc bug, reported
581 * gsignal.c (g_signal_newv): fixed deadlock scenarion where
582 g_signal_lookup() would be called with the signal lock being
583 held. reported by james henstridge.
585 * gclosure.c (g_closure_set_meta_marshal): fixed memcpy/overwrite bug
588 2000-10-26 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
590 * gbsearcharray.c (bsearch_array_insert): Fix gccisms (pointer
591 arithmetic on void pointer, label without statement following.
593 * gtype.c (type_node_fundamental_info): Don't apply unary minus to
594 result of sizeof operator, it can be unsigned. Cast first to
597 * gobject.def: Add new functions.
599 * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in: Add new objects.
601 2000-10-26 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
603 * Makefile.am: Remove empty SUBDIRS line _again_, as that _still_
604 prevents 'make dist' from working.
606 Wed Oct 25 19:11:03 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
608 * gbsearcharray.h (g_bsearch_array_get_nth): Don't use implicit
609 casts from void * since this will get included from C++ too
612 Thu Oct 26 00:30:27 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
614 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: added g_value_set_static_string().
616 * gboxed.[hc]: const corrections. added g_value_set_static_boxed().
618 Wed Oct 25 20:27:02 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
620 * gtype.c (g_type_free_instance): for the moment, freeing object
621 structures will fill their memory portion with 0xAA. there's a
622 FIXME there, remove this line at a later point.
624 Tue Oct 24 23:10:26 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
627 * glib-genmarshal.c: added publically installed marshaller generator.
629 * gtype.h: added G_TYPE_INSTANCE_GET_INTERFACE() to retrive a certain
630 interface VTable from instances.
632 Mon Oct 23 08:28:15 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
634 * gobject.[hc]: new functions for closure maintenance:
635 (g_object_watch_closure): maintain validity of the object and
636 the closure for objects that are used as data part of a closure.
637 (g_cclosure_new_object): convenience function to create C closures
638 that have an object as data argument.
639 (g_closure_new_object): convenience function to create closures
640 that have an object as data argument.
642 * gclosure.[hc]: implementation of GClosure mechanism.
643 a closure is basically an encapsulation of a callback function
644 and its environment. ideally, most places supporting callback
645 functions will simply take a GClosure* pointer and thus unify
646 callback environments wrg destroy notification etc.
647 GClosure provides destroy notifiers for arbitrary data pointers,
648 reference counting, invalidation notification (it can be invalidated
649 which is merely a deactivate state) and a marshallinbg abstraction.
650 GCClosure is also provided in these files, they present a specialized
651 GClosure implementation for C language callbacks.
653 * genum.c: macro cleanups.
655 * gboxed.[hc]: new files, for boxed type abstraction.
656 (g_boxed_copy): copy a boxed structure
657 (g_boxed_free): free a boxed structure
659 (g_value_get_boxed): standard GValue functions for boxed types
660 (g_boxed_type_register_static): convenience function for easy
661 introduction of new G_TYPE_BOXED derivatives.
663 * gparam.[hc]: introduced g_param_type_register_static(), a short hand
664 for creation of new GParamSpec derived types.
666 * gtype.[hc]: many fixes, introduced ability to flag individual
667 type nodes as ABSTRACT upon registration, added value_peek_pointer()
668 to the value table to peek at GValue contents as a pointer for types
669 that support this. fixed up GValue checks.
671 * gvalue.[hc]: added g_value_fits_pointer() and g_value_get_as_pointer()
672 to peek at the value contents as pointer.
674 * *.[hc]: adaptions to type macro fixes and changes in the type
677 * many const corrections over the place.
679 Sat Oct 21 02:49:56 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
681 * gtype.c (g_type_conforms_to): this function basically behaves like
682 and is_a check, except that it _additionally_ features interfaces
683 for instantiatable types. enforce this in the second branch as well
684 (`type' conforms_to `type') even if `type' is not an interface type.
686 Fri Oct 20 15:31:04 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
688 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: added G_TYPE_POINTER implementation from jrb.
692 * gvaluetypes.c: added GTypeValueTable.value_peek_pointer and
693 suitable implementations of this for G_TYPE_STRING, G_TYPE_OBJECT
696 Mon Aug 21 04:13:37 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
698 * gbsearcharray.[hc]: long standing needed generic implementation
699 of a binary searchable, sorted and dynamically sized array.
701 2000-10-15 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
703 * Makefile.am (BUILT_EXTRA_DIST): New variable.
704 (dist-hook): Handle $(BUILT_EXTRA_DIST).
705 (*): Remove traces of @STRIP_{BEGIN,END}@.
707 2000-09-29 Martin Baulig <baulig@suse.de>
709 Several minor ANSI C fixes.
712 * gtype.c (type_class_init):
713 `(gpointer) bnode->data->class.class_init_base'
714 in call to g_slist_prepend() and
715 'GBaseInitFunc class_init_base = (GBaseInitFunc) slist->data'.
717 * gobject.c: Put text following #endif into comments.
719 2000-09-25 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
721 * Makefile.am: Remove empty SUBDIRS line, as that prevents make
724 Sat Sep 9 20:04:13 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
726 * gobject.c (g_object_last_unref): Move call to
727 g_type_free_instance() here from g_object_do_finalize,
728 since g_type_free_instance() can unload the object's
731 2000-07-27 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
733 * gobject.c: No, don't mark glib_debug_objects for export here,
734 it's handled specially in gtktypeutils.c.
736 * gobject.def: Export g_type_fundamental_last (the function).
738 2000-07-26 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
741 * gobject.c: Mark glib_debug_objects for export/import as it is
744 Sun Jul 23 17:23:35 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
746 * gtype.[hc]: make g_type_fundamental_last() a function, avoiding all
747 that extern variable clutter and avoiding further problems with thread
750 2000-07-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
755 * gtype.c: Shut up Sun's picky compiler.
757 2000-07-14 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
759 * gobject.def: Add g_type_get_plugin.
761 Thu Jul 13 02:07:54 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
763 * gparam.c (g_param_value_defaults): default initialize the temporary
764 default value, instead of nuking the caller's value contents.
766 2000-07-11 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
768 * gtype.c (g_type_get_plugin): Don't return just 0 or 1.
770 Tue Jul 11 02:48:13 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
772 * gtype.[hc]: removed g_type_is_dynamic() and added g_type_get_plugin().
774 2000-07-10 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
776 * gobject-query.c: Include ../config.h for HAVE_UNISTD_H. Use it
777 to guard inclusion of <unistd.h>.
779 * gtype.h: Fix copy-paste errors in the ifdefs on how to declare a
780 variable for export. Call the macro GOBJECT_VAR.
782 * gtype.c: Declare _g_type_fundamental_last for export here, too.
783 (type_node_any_new): Use only constant expressions for sizeof
784 operator (for instance MSVC requires this).
786 * makefile.mingw.in: Define GOBJECT_COMPILATION.
788 Sun Jul 9 21:21:46 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
790 * genums.c: Move string.h include into the .c file
791 instead of where it was in the .h file by mistake.
793 Thu Jul 6 15:30:27 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
795 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): dist fixes.
797 * gobject.c: Add a global variable glib_debug_objects
798 (not in header file) to control object tracing.
800 2000-07-01 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
802 * gobject.def: Update added and renamed entry points.
804 * makefile.mingw.in: Add gvaluetypes.o.
806 Thu Jun 29 16:02:07 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
808 * gobject.c:include string.h for memset
809 * genums.h: include string.h for strcpy
810 * gvalue.c: include string.h for memset, memcpy.
812 Sat Jun 24 23:03:04 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
814 * gtype.[hc]: provide G_TYPE_CHAR, G_TYPE_UCHAR, G_TYPE_BOOLEAN,
815 G_TYPE_INT, G_TYPE_UINT, G_TYPE_LONG, G_TYPE_ULONG, G_TYPE_FLOAT,
816 G_TYPE_DOUBLE and G_TYPE_STRING fundamental types.
817 added a GTypeValueTable* pointer to GTypeInfo structure for types
818 to implement GValue handling functions.
819 GTypeValueTable contains the following members:
820 value_init(): initialize a GValue structure.
821 value_free(): free GValue structure contents (optional).
822 value_copy(): copy one GValue contents to another GValue structure of
823 collect_type: varargs collection type for the first variable argument
824 to be collected by collect_value().
825 collect_value(): variable arguments collection function (optional).
826 lcopy_type: varargs collection type for the first variable argument
827 to be location copyied by lcopy_value().
828 lcopy_value(): variable arguments location copy function (optional).
829 g_type_value_table_peek(): new function to retrive the GTypeValueTable*
830 for a type node. ValueTables get inherited from parent types, unless
831 overridden through the GTypeInfo structure. internally, GTypeValueTable
832 support means an added overhead of one pointer per static or used
834 g_type_add_class_cache_func(): provide a cache_func/data pair to be
835 called prior to a type nodes last_unref() function, this can be used
836 to prevent premature class destruction. multiple installed cache_func()
837 will be chained upon last_unref() untill one of them returns TRUE.
838 the cache_func()s have to check the class id passed in to figure whether
839 they actually want to cache the class of this type (since all classes
840 are routed through the cache_func() chain).
841 g_type_remove_class_cache_func(): remove a previously installed
842 cache_func/data pair. the cache maintained by this function has to be
843 clear when calling g_type_remove_class_cache_func() to avoid leaks.
844 g_type_class_unref_uncached(): class unref function for cache_func()
845 implementations, unreferences a class omitting the cache chain (and
846 therefore unref->cache->unref->... loops).
848 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: provide the value setters/getters for the primitive
849 fundamental types boolean, char, uchar, int, uint, long, ulong, float,
852 * gvalue.[hc]: provide G_TYPE_IS_VALUE() in terms of whether a
853 GTypeValueTable is provided for this type.
854 removed g_value_init_default(), g_value_validate(), g_value_defaults(),
855 g_value_set_default() and g_values_cmp() as these are supplied by the
857 moved g_values_exchange() into the "implementation details" section,
858 since it just provides the underlying functionality for
861 * gvaluecollector.h: renamed the varargs value container from
862 GParamCValue to GTypeCValue as the value collection methods are
863 supplied by the type system now.
864 G_PARAM_COLLECT_VALUE() and G_PARAM_LCOPY_VALUE() got renamed to
865 G_VALUE_COLLECT() and G_VALUE_LCOPY() and operate without a
866 GParamSpec structure now.
868 * genums.h: macros cleanups/fixes.
870 * genum.c: provide G_TYPE_ENUM and G_TYPE_FLAGS type
871 and assorted g_value_{s|g}et_{enum|flags}() implementations.
874 provide G_IS_VALUE_OBJECT(), G_TYPE_OBJECT ValueTable methods
875 and g_value_{s|g}et_object().
877 * gparam.[hc]: reduced class to value_set_default(),
878 value_validate() and values_cmp(). also parameters now need to fill
879 in a GType value_type; field to indicate the GValue type they
880 are handling. provide g_param_value_set_default(),
881 g_param_value_defaults(), g_param_value_validate() and
882 g_param_values_cmp().
884 * gparamspecs.[hc]: got rid of the g_value_* functions and
885 the G_IS_VALUE_* macros. adapted param spec implementations
886 according to the GParamSpecClass changes.
888 Sat Jun 10 08:38:27 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
890 * gtype.c (type_class_init): fetch the nth iface entry of the
891 type node in the nth loop iteration, not alwys the first.
892 bug discovered by Walt Pohl <cher@suitware.com>.
893 (type_data_finalize_class_ifaces): same here, cut and paste
896 Wed Jun 7 09:21:05 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
898 * Makefile.am (INCLUDES): Add top_builddir so glibconfig.h
899 is found properly when build srcdir != builddir. (Patch from
902 2000-05-13 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
906 * gobject.rc.in: New files, for Win32 (mingw) build.
908 * Makefile.am: Add to EXTRA_DIST. Add rules to produce the
909 corresponding non-*.in files.
911 * gtype.h: (Win32:) Mark _g_type_fundamental_last for
912 export/import from DLL.
914 Fri May 5 01:15:48 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
916 * gtype.h: add reserved fundamental ids for gtk types (for transition
917 time). added G_TYPE_FUNDAMENTAL_MAX for gtk.
919 Mon Apr 17 20:45:50 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
921 * glib-gobject.c (g_object_base_class_finalize): oops, don't unset
922 n_params prior to destructing them.
924 Tue Apr 11 04:28:10 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
926 * fixed a couple of bugs in the initial parameter/object
927 implementations, after getting beast running on GObject and GValue.
929 Fri Apr 7 04:27:49 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
931 * glib-gobject.[hc]: completed parameter set/get implementations,
932 along with asyncronous parameter changed notification queue.
934 Sun Apr 2 04:54:36 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
936 * glib-gobject.[hc]: GObject implementation, that is facilities
937 for setting/getting quarked data and reference counting.
939 * glib-gparamspecs.[hc]: first actuall parameter implementations
940 for GLib, so far we have: char, uchar, bool, int, uint, long,
941 ulong, enum, flags, float, double, string and object. each of these
942 GParamSpecs is a new instantiatable type in its own respect,
943 so the .c file derives 13 new types from G_TYPE_PARAM and
944 defines over 50 (*2) conversion facilities.
946 * glib-gvaluecollector.h: generic varargs handling stubs for
947 GParamSpecs, private header file (does get installed for
948 inclusion into user code though).
950 * glib-gvalue.[hc]: GValue functionality implementation.
952 * glib-gparam.[hc]: basis GParamSpec implementation for
953 the virtual base type G_TYPE_PARAM.
955 * glib-genums.[hc]: enum/flags type implementation, based on
958 * glib-gtype.[hc]: GLib Type System implementation, heavily
959 based on BSE's dynamic type system.
