1 Fri Mar 9 10:14:00 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
3 * gparamspecs.c (g_param_spec_object): use g_type_is_a() to check
4 for object_type being a G_TYPE_OBJECT, not G_TYPE_IS_OBJECT(), since
5 that wouldn't allow interface types.
7 * gtype.c (g_type_interface_add_prerequisite): arg, fixed small cnp bug
8 with bad implications and an off-by-one error.
10 Thu Mar 8 16:34:22 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
12 * gvaluetransform.c: Include <string.h> for memcpy.
14 * gvaluetransform.c (DEFINE_SPRINTF): Remove unnecessary
15 and ANSI-illegal ## token pasting.
17 Thu Mar 8 18:11:52 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
19 * gsignal.c: eek, fixed old hook detail storage code.
21 Thu Mar 8 16:35:48 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
23 * gparamspecs.[hc]: s/g_param_spec_string_c/g_param_spec_stringc/.
25 * gsignal.[hc]: fixed accumulator invocation, implemented emission
26 hooks. and no, neither of these callbacks are called via a closure,
27 language bindings can wrap the accumulator and emission hook
28 interface, they already get parameters marshalled into a GValue array.
29 (g_signal_connect): removed this function as its C specific, doesn't
30 cover the swapped argument, is too close to its broken original
31 gtk_signal_connect() and creates demand for _swapped, _after and
32 _swapped_after variants <brrr>.
33 (g_signal_connectc): convenience macro to connect a C handler
34 func with data, like the old g_signal_connect() plus swapped
38 * gboxed.c: added G_TYPE_VALUE boxed type.
40 Wed Mar 7 19:02:51 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
42 * gtype.c (type_node_add_iface_entry_W): catch when adding an interface
43 to an ancestor of a child that already conforms to this interface.
44 currently we spew a warning here, should we be silent?
45 (g_type_interface_add_prerequisite): new function to add a prerequisite
46 type to an interface, that must succeed an instance is_a prerequisite
47 type check before the interface can be added to an instance. the
48 prerequisite types are also suuported in is_a checks of the interface.
49 (g_type_instance_is_a):
50 (g_type_check_instance_cast):
51 (g_type_check_instance): cleanups and optimizations.
53 (g_type_check_class_cast): same, also prevented these from accepting
54 interface types, as class structures don't nest interfaces.
56 2001-03-07 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
58 * Makefile.am: Avoid rebuilding everything everytime.
60 Wed Mar 7 09:36:33 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
62 * gboxed.[hc]: changed prototype of g_boxed_type_register_static()
63 to contain an optional init function and a hint at whether the
64 boxed structure uses ref counting internally.
65 added g_value_set_boxed_take_ownership().
66 made G_TYPE_BOXED an abstract value type.
68 * genums.[hc]: made G_TYPE_ENUM and G_TYPE_FLAGS abstract value
71 * glib-genmarshal.c: argument type changes, preparation for third-party
74 * gobject.[hc]: cleaned up get/set property code.
75 added g_strdup_value_contents() to improve warnings.
77 * gparam.[hc]: added g_param_value_convert(), taking over responsibility
78 of the old g_value_convert(). added G_PARAM_LAX_VALIDATION flag so
79 validation alterations may be valid a part of the property setting
82 * gparamspecs.[hc]: made value comparisons stable (for sort applications).
83 added GParamSpecValueArray, a param spec for value arrays and
84 GParamSpecClosure. nuked the value exchange functions and
87 * gtype.[hc]: catch unintialized usages of the type system with
88 g_return_val_if_uninitialized(). introduced G_TYPE_FLAG_VALUE_ABSTRACT
89 to flag types that introduce a value table, but can't be used for
90 g_value_init(). cleaned up reserved type ids.
92 * gvalue.[hc]: code cleanups and saner checking.
93 nuked the value exchange API. implemented value transformations, we
94 can't really "convert" values, rather transforms are an anylogy to
95 C casts, real conversions need a param spec for validation, which is
96 why g_param_value_convert() does real conversions now.
98 * gvaluearray.[hc]: new files that implement a GValueArray, a struct
99 that can hold inhomogeneous arrays of value (to that extend that it
100 also allowes undefined values, i.e. G_VALUE_TYPE(value)==0).
101 this is exposed to the type system as a boxed type.
103 * gvaluetransform.c: new file implementing most of the former value
104 exchange functions as single-sided transformations.
106 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: nuked G_TYPE_CCALLBACK, added
107 g_value_set_string_take_ownership().
109 * *.h: s/G_IS_VALUE_/G_VALUE_HOLDS_/.
111 * *.[hc]: many fixes and cleanups.
113 * many warning improvements.
115 Tue Feb 27 18:35:15 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
117 * gobject.c (g_object_get_valist): urg, pass G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS
118 into G_VALUE_LCOPY(), this needs proper documenting.
120 * gparam.c: fixed G_PARAM_USER_MASK.
122 * gtype.c (type_data_make_W):
123 (type_data_last_unref_Wm): fixed invalid memory freeing.
125 * gobject.c (g_object_last_unref): destroy signal handlers associated
126 with object, right before finalization.
128 * gsignal.c (g_signal_parse_name): catch destroyed nodes or signals
129 that don't actually support details.
131 * gobject.[hc]: got rid of property trailers. nuked GObject
132 properties "data" and the "signal" variants.
133 (g_object_connect): new convenience function to do multiple
134 signal connections at once.
135 (g_object_disconnect): likewise, for disconnections.
137 * gparam.[hc] (g_param_spec_pool_lookup): took out trailer support.
139 * gvalue.[hc]: marked g_value_fits_pointer() and g_value_peek_pointer()
140 as private (the latter got renamed from g_value_get_as_pointer()).
142 Wed Feb 21 18:31:46 2001 Jonathan Blandford <jrb@redhat.com>
144 * gsignal.h (g_signal_connect): Add g_signal_connect define to
145 make porting from gtk_signal_connect easy.
147 * gsignal.c (g_signal_emit_valist): Use G_TYPE_FROM_INSTANCE
148 (instance) instead of node->itype when initting the value.
150 2001-02-17 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>
152 Applied patch from Soeren Sandmann:
154 * gvaluetypes.c (g_value_get_string): G_CONST_RETURN
156 * gtype.c (g_type_name): G_CONST_RETURN
158 * gsignal.c (g_signal_name): G_CONST_RETURN
160 * gobject-query.c (main): const fix
162 Sat Feb 17 07:58:46 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
164 * genums.h (G_TYPE_IS_FLAGS): patch from sven to fixup
165 G_ENUM_CLASS_TYPE() macro.
167 Sat Feb 17 04:55:35 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
169 * gtype.[hc]: changed collect_format, collect_value() and lcopy_format,
170 lcopy_value() in the GTypeValueTable. the collect functions are now
171 called only once per value, collect_format/lcopy_format are strings
172 that enlist all necessary GTypeCValues to be varargs-collected.
174 * gvalue.h: ranamed STATIC_TAG to G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS to indicate that
175 a value shouldn't copy its contents.
177 * gvaluecollector.h: changed G_VALUE_COLLECT() and G_VALUE_LCOPY()
178 macros to carry an additional argument (flags) that can be used
179 to pass G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS along to the collection functions.
181 * *.c: adapted collect_value() and lcopy_value() functions to the new
182 prototypes, support G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS where apropriate.
184 * gsignal.[hc]: introduced a G_SIGNAL_TYPE_STATIC_SCOPE flag that can
185 be passed along (ORed) with the parameter types, indicating that the
186 emission arguments are to be considered static for the scope of the
187 emission. should be used with care and only if the caller knows that
188 a parameter cannot be destroyed/freed from signal handlers connected
191 Fri Feb 16 07:10:44 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
195 (g_closure_sink): make closure sinking explicit.
198 (g_signal_connect_data):
199 (g_signal_connect_closure):
200 (g_signal_connect_closure_by_id):
201 (g_signal_newv): perform explicit closure sinking.
203 Thu Feb 8 00:31:45 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
205 * gtype.h: added G_TYPE_DEBUG_NONE for/from Eric Lemings ;)
207 2001-02-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
209 * gobject.def: Remove glib_debug_objects.
211 Sun Feb 4 07:30:53 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
213 * gtype.[hc]: changed g_type_init() to take debugging flags
214 initially, a combination of G_TYPE_DEBUG_OBJECTS and
215 G_TYPE_DEBUG_SIGNALS. using the G_TYPE_ prefix is a bit odd
216 here, but basically g_type_int() serves as initialization
217 fucntion for all of GType, GObject, GSignal, so what the heck.
219 * gobject.c: special case debugging code properly.
220 changed glib_trap_object_ref to g_trap_object_ref.
222 * gsignal.c: add signal emission debugging abilities, along with
223 a new trap object g_trap_instance_signals.
225 2001-02-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
227 * Makefile.am (progs_LDADD): Change order of libs to libgobject
228 first, then libglib. Needed for cygwin, says jbdoll@kepri.re.kr.
230 Wed Jan 31 06:19:49 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
232 * gparam.h: gtk-doc sucks for not dealing with #define inside enums.
234 * gtype.[hc]: added G_TYPE_FLAG_RESERVED_ID_BIT, a bit in the type
235 number that's supposed to be left untouched (preserved mainly
236 for the signal code).
238 * *.c: added thread safety code, based on an old patch from sebastian.
239 the remaining thread safety issues are now datalists on pspecs (to be
240 solved im gdataset.c) and gvalue.c where locking concerns value exchange
241 functionality only, and that's soon to be revised.
243 2001-01-27 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
245 * makefile.msc.in: Don't try to compile gmarshal.c on its own.
247 2001-01-24 <alexl@redhat.com>
249 * gclosure.c (g_closure_unref):
250 Don't leak closure->notifiers.
252 2001-01-05 Havoc Pennington <hp@redhat.com>
254 * gparamspecs.c (g_param_spec_enum): set the value_type in the
255 param spec; closes bug 40210
256 (g_param_spec_flags): ditto for flags
258 2001-01-03 Alexander Larsson <alexl@redhat.com>
261 Move glib_debug_objects out of the G_ENABLE_DEBUG #ifdef.
263 Thu Dec 28 11:36:44 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
265 * gbsearcharray.c (upper_power2): disable G_BSEARCH_ALIGN_POWER2
266 fucntionality if DISABLE_MEM_POOLS is defined.
268 * gtype.c: honour DISABLE_MEM_POOLS.
270 * gsignal.c (g_signal_init): flag signal key bsearch array with
271 G_BSEARCH_ALIGN_POWER2 to avoid excessive growth time. honour
274 * gparam.h: added G_PARAM_READWRITE alias for (G_PARAM_READABLE |
277 2000-12-15 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
279 * gobject.def: Update.
281 2000-12-15 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>
283 * gobject.c (g_object_do_class_init): use g_signal_newc
285 * gsignal.c (g_signal_newc): convenience function for signals
287 (g_signal_new_valist): added
288 (g_signal_new): removed
290 Fri Dec 15 04:40:23 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
292 * gparam.[hc]: add an instance member value_type so the default
293 value of the pspec class can be overridden.
295 2000-12-14 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
297 * makefile.mingw.in: Update, include parts from Makefile.am to
298 build gmarshal.[ch]. Some day, we won't need these separate
299 makefiles for Win32 compilation. I hope.
301 * makefile.msc.in: Update. No use trying to build gmarshal.[ch]
302 here, it would require Unixish tools. MSVC users building from CVS
303 sources are out of luck.
305 * gobject.def: Update.
307 Wed Dec 13 09:31:26 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
309 * gparamspecs.[hc]: add G_TYPE_PARAM_BOXED implementation.
311 * gobject.[hc]: minor fixes.
313 Tue Dec 12 23:38:02 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
315 * Makefile.am: _never_ touch oldest-source-stamp.
317 * gobject.[hc]: construct property handling fixes/improvements.
318 fixed trailer handling in get/set property.
320 * gparam.[hc]: implement param spec pool, got rid of param spec
321 hashtable. the most prominent change is that e deal with type
324 2000-12-12 Elliot Lee <sopwith@redhat.com>
327 . You have to 'touch oldest-source-stamp' if you want to avoid having
328 the Makefile constantly rebuild itself.
329 . Fix marshaller generation rules to work with srcdir != builddir
330 (there were issues with trying to run "./glib-genmarshal", etc.)
332 Mon Dec 11 04:44:11 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
334 * gboxed.c: fixed dealing with collection/lcopy of NULL values.
336 * gclosure.h: removed insane ramblings, added G_CALLBACK() a casting
339 * Makefile.am: cleanups, marshaller generation rules.
341 * gmarshal.[hc]: new files with GRuntime standard marshallers.
343 * glib-genmarshal.c: fix log domain, support gruntime standard
344 marshallers, suport G_TYPE_PARAM, come with extern "C" and
347 * glib-genmarshal.1: reflect glib-genmarshal.c updates.
349 * gobject.[hc]: implement object constructor. rework parameter
350 changed notification queueing, we support queue freezes now and
351 don't dispatch from an idle handler anymore.
352 parameter->property rename hassle.
353 implemented ::properties_changed and ::notify::* signals for
354 property change notification (the later supports property names
355 as details). added signal connection and named data properties.
356 (g_signal_connect_object): new function to setup while_alive
358 (g_object_class_install_property): sink properties now, since they
359 are initially floating.
360 (g_object_steal_data):
361 (g_object_set_data_full):
363 (g_object_get_data): set/get data by using g_datalist_*() functions
365 (g_object_queue_param_changed): nuked.
366 (g_object_freeze_notify): start queueing of property changes (freeze/
368 (g_object_notify): announce changes of a certain property directly.
369 (g_object_thaw_notify): process queue of property changes, therefore
370 emitting GObject::notify::detail with detail being the changed
372 (G_OBJECT_WARN_INVALID_PROPERTY_ID): saner macro variant of former
373 G_WARN_INVALID_PARAM_ID().
375 * gparam.[hc]: param specs are now initially floating and need to be
376 sunken with g_param_spec_sink(), support G_TYPE_PARAM values.
377 added G_PARAM_CONSTRUCT and G_PARAM_CONSTRUCT_ONLY parameter flags,
378 required by GObjectClass.constructor().
380 * gparamspecs.[hc]: added GParamSpecParam, GParamSpecPointer and
381 GParamSpecCCallback, param specs for G_TYPE_PARAM, G_TYPE_POINTER
382 and G_TYPE_CCALLBACK respectively.
384 * gsignal.[hc]: cleanups.
385 (signal_id_lookup): after walking the anchestry, try interfaces as well.
386 (g_signal_new): new function to create signals from varargs type list.
387 (g_signal_connect_closure): closure connection variant that works from
389 (g_signal_connect_data): c handler connection variant that works from
391 (g_signal_emit_valist): emit signal for an instance with paraneters
392 collected from a va_list.
393 (g_signal_emit): emit signal, taking parameters from varargs list.
394 (g_signal_emit_by_name): same as g_signal_emit, working from
396 (signal_emit_R): return whether return_value needs to be altered.
398 * gtype.[hc]: set log-domain to GRuntime, i'm slowly getting to all
399 the points that need to reflect the upcoming rename.
400 melt g_type_conforms_to() functionality into g_type_is_a(), as that
401 is what we really want (liskov substitution principle).
402 assorted changes to other files due to conforms_to->is_a.
404 * gvalue.[hc]: implemented g_value_set_instance() that sets a value
405 from an instantiatable type via the value_table's collect_value()
406 function (based on an idea from James Henstridge <james@daa.com.au>).
409 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: implement G_TYPE_CCALLBACK and G_TYPE_PARAM.
411 Wed Nov 29 13:30:05 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
413 * gsignal.c (handlers_find): fix elliots "logic fix" that dereferences
414 NULL nodes if C handlers are searched for specific signals.
416 2000-11-28 Elliot Lee <sopwith@redhat.com>
418 * gsignal.c: Fix warnings about possible use of uninitialized
419 variables, and fix logic that would leave 'node' unset in cases
420 that it might be used in.
422 * glib-genmarshal.c: Fix warning about printf format.
424 2000-11-28 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
426 * gboxed.c: Include <string.h> for memset ().
428 2000-11-22 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
430 * gobject.def: Update.
432 2000-11-20 Havoc Pennington <hp@redhat.com>
434 * gobject.c (g_object_get_data)
436 (g_object_set_data_full)
437 (g_object_steal_data): More convenient data-setting functions
439 Wed Nov 15 20:58:05 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
441 * gtypemodule.c (g_type_module_use): If loading the
442 module fails, don't increment the use count.
444 Thu Nov 9 01:49:43 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
446 * gobject.h (G_WARN_INVALID_PARAM_ID): doh,
447 s/BSE_OBJECT_TYPE_NAME/G_OBJECT_TYPE_NAME/; reported by Maas-Maarten
448 Zeeman <maas@wanadoo.nl>.
450 Mon Nov 13 00:48:39 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
452 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add glib-genmarshal.1
454 2000-11-11 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
456 * gtypemodule.c: Include stdlib.h for exit().
458 * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in (gobject_OBJECTS): Add gtypemodule.
460 * gobject.def: Add missing functions.
462 Sun Nov 5 13:21:28 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
464 * Makefile.am gtypemodule.[ch]: New basic implementation of
465 GTypePlugin interface as a GObject. Dynamically loaded modules can
466 register any number of types and interface on the module.
468 Sun Nov 5 10:25:40 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
470 * gsignal.c (handlers_find): When appending handlers and
471 not matching on signal_id, use hlist->signal_id instead of
472 signal_id. Having the correct signal_id when unreffing
473 the handlers makes things work a lot better.
475 2000-11-05 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
477 * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in (gobject_OBJECTS): Add gtypeplugin.
479 * gobject.def: Update.
481 Sun Nov 5 05:22:55 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
484 fixed a bag full of subtle bugs of immensive screw-up potential in
485 handlers_find(), luckily no one found out about them yet ;)
486 fixed signal_handlers_foreach_matched_R() so it operates on an
487 initial handler list snapshot provided by handlers_find() to work
488 around general reentrancy problems and to avoid multiple callback()
489 invocations on the same handlers.
490 this code is now officially 80% bug free (10% remaining for interface
491 types, and 10% remaining for destroyed signals ;)
493 Sat Nov 4 02:01:33 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
495 * gsignal.c (_g_signals_destroy): valid signal nodes start out at 1.
497 * gtypeplugin.[hc]: new files holding a GTypePlugin interface
498 implementation that provides the API required by GType to deal with
499 dynamically loadable types.
501 * gtype.[hc]: displace any GTypePlugin business to gtypeplugin.h.
503 Fri Nov 3 07:35:00 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
505 * gsignal.[hc]: prefix internal functions with '_'. renamed
506 g_signal_connect_closure() to g_signal_connect_closure_by_id().
507 added g_signal_parse_name() to retrive signal_id and detail quark
508 from a signal name (internal).
510 Wed Nov 1 03:36:54 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
512 * gobject.c (g_object_base_class_finalize): destroy all signals that
513 the finalized obejct type introduced.
515 * gsignal.c (g_signals_destroy): don't require itype to have
518 * gobject.c (g_object_do_finalize): make sure all signal handlers
522 (g_signal_handler_find): only match on non-0 masks.
523 (g_signal_handlers_block_matched):
524 (g_signal_handlers_unblock_matched):
525 (g_signal_handlers_disconnect_matched): new functions to block/unblock
526 or disconnect handlers in groups.
528 2000-10-30 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
530 * gvalue.c (exchange_entries_equal), gparam.c (param_spec_equals):
531 made both functions return gboolean just for the little extra
532 standard conformance now that GEqualFunc is introduced.
534 Mon Oct 30 05:52:45 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
536 * gsignal.c (g_signal_list_ids): get rid of inline documentation owen
537 added, the doc system would ignore it anyways (for some reason not
540 Mon Oct 30 03:00:07 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
542 * gsignal.[hc] (g_signal_list_ids): renamed owen's g_type_signals(),
543 added required mutex locks.
545 Sun Oct 29 02:31:03 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
547 * gsignal.c (g_type_signals): Fix problem where signals
548 with "_" in them appeared twice in the result array.
550 Sun Oct 29 01:58:44 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
552 * gsignal.h: Add g_type_signals() - a function to list
553 all signals for a given type.
555 Sat Oct 28 00:28:09 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
557 * gclosure.c (g_closure_add_marshal_guards): fixed notifier position
558 for post_marshal guard which was off at 0.
560 Fri Oct 27 21:49:31 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
562 * gobject.[hc]: doh, fix argument order in for
563 g_cclosure_new_object_swap and g_cclosure_new_object.
565 2000-10-28 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
567 * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in: Make glib-genmarshal.exe.
569 * glib-genmarshal.c: Conditionalise include of unistd.h.
570 Include <io.h> on Win32.
572 * gobject.def: Add some missing entry points.
574 Fri Oct 27 16:33:41 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
576 * gsignal.[hc]: publically define GSignalInvocationHint structure
577 that gets passed in to closure invocations. added signal details.
578 renamed GSignalType to GSignalFlags to comply with conventions.
579 quite some cleanups and minor fixes. avoid uneccessary handler list
580 walks upon invokation of after handlers. relookup handler list for
581 restarted emissions. preliminary abort normal handler invokation if
582 after handler is encountered.
585 * gclosure.[hc]: moved invocation_hint to the end of the
586 g_closure_invoke() arguments as sugegsted by kenelson.
587 also made it a gpointer to be more generic. the invocation_hint
588 is a caller specific thing that can be used to pass additional
589 data in to closure invocations as documented with the caller
590 invoking the closure.
592 Fri Oct 27 05:35:14 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
594 * gobject.c (g_object_watch_closure): fixed realloc bug, reported
597 * gsignal.c (g_signal_newv): fixed deadlock scenarion where
598 g_signal_lookup() would be called with the signal lock being
599 held. reported by james henstridge.
601 * gclosure.c (g_closure_set_meta_marshal): fixed memcpy/overwrite bug
604 2000-10-26 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
606 * gbsearcharray.c (bsearch_array_insert): Fix gccisms (pointer
607 arithmetic on void pointer, label without statement following.
609 * gtype.c (type_node_fundamental_info): Don't apply unary minus to
610 result of sizeof operator, it can be unsigned. Cast first to
613 * gobject.def: Add new functions.
615 * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in: Add new objects.
617 2000-10-26 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
619 * Makefile.am: Remove empty SUBDIRS line _again_, as that _still_
620 prevents 'make dist' from working.
622 Wed Oct 25 19:11:03 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
624 * gbsearcharray.h (g_bsearch_array_get_nth): Don't use implicit
625 casts from void * since this will get included from C++ too
628 Thu Oct 26 00:30:27 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
630 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: added g_value_set_static_string().
632 * gboxed.[hc]: const corrections. added g_value_set_static_boxed().
634 Wed Oct 25 20:27:02 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
636 * gtype.c (g_type_free_instance): for the moment, freeing object
637 structures will fill their memory portion with 0xAA. there's a
638 FIXME there, remove this line at a later point.
640 Tue Oct 24 23:10:26 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
643 * glib-genmarshal.c: added publically installed marshaller generator.
645 * gtype.h: added G_TYPE_INSTANCE_GET_INTERFACE() to retrive a certain
646 interface VTable from instances.
648 Mon Oct 23 08:28:15 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
650 * gobject.[hc]: new functions for closure maintenance:
651 (g_object_watch_closure): maintain validity of the object and
652 the closure for objects that are used as data part of a closure.
653 (g_cclosure_new_object): convenience function to create C closures
654 that have an object as data argument.
655 (g_closure_new_object): convenience function to create closures
656 that have an object as data argument.
658 * gclosure.[hc]: implementation of GClosure mechanism.
659 a closure is basically an encapsulation of a callback function
660 and its environment. ideally, most places supporting callback
661 functions will simply take a GClosure* pointer and thus unify
662 callback environments wrg destroy notification etc.
663 GClosure provides destroy notifiers for arbitrary data pointers,
664 reference counting, invalidation notification (it can be invalidated
665 which is merely a deactivate state) and a marshallinbg abstraction.
666 GCClosure is also provided in these files, they present a specialized
667 GClosure implementation for C language callbacks.
669 * genum.c: macro cleanups.
671 * gboxed.[hc]: new files, for boxed type abstraction.
672 (g_boxed_copy): copy a boxed structure
673 (g_boxed_free): free a boxed structure
675 (g_value_get_boxed): standard GValue functions for boxed types
676 (g_boxed_type_register_static): convenience function for easy
677 introduction of new G_TYPE_BOXED derivatives.
679 * gparam.[hc]: introduced g_param_type_register_static(), a short hand
680 for creation of new GParamSpec derived types.
682 * gtype.[hc]: many fixes, introduced ability to flag individual
683 type nodes as ABSTRACT upon registration, added value_peek_pointer()
684 to the value table to peek at GValue contents as a pointer for types
685 that support this. fixed up GValue checks.
687 * gvalue.[hc]: added g_value_fits_pointer() and g_value_get_as_pointer()
688 to peek at the value contents as pointer.
690 * *.[hc]: adaptions to type macro fixes and changes in the type
693 * many const corrections over the place.
695 Sat Oct 21 02:49:56 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
697 * gtype.c (g_type_conforms_to): this function basically behaves like
698 and is_a check, except that it _additionally_ features interfaces
699 for instantiatable types. enforce this in the second branch as well
700 (`type' conforms_to `type') even if `type' is not an interface type.
702 Fri Oct 20 15:31:04 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
704 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: added G_TYPE_POINTER implementation from jrb.
708 * gvaluetypes.c: added GTypeValueTable.value_peek_pointer and
709 suitable implementations of this for G_TYPE_STRING, G_TYPE_OBJECT
712 Mon Aug 21 04:13:37 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
714 * gbsearcharray.[hc]: long standing needed generic implementation
715 of a binary searchable, sorted and dynamically sized array.
717 2000-10-15 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
719 * Makefile.am (BUILT_EXTRA_DIST): New variable.
720 (dist-hook): Handle $(BUILT_EXTRA_DIST).
721 (*): Remove traces of @STRIP_{BEGIN,END}@.
723 2000-09-29 Martin Baulig <baulig@suse.de>
725 Several minor ANSI C fixes.
728 * gtype.c (type_class_init):
729 `(gpointer) bnode->data->class.class_init_base'
730 in call to g_slist_prepend() and
731 'GBaseInitFunc class_init_base = (GBaseInitFunc) slist->data'.
733 * gobject.c: Put text following #endif into comments.
735 2000-09-25 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
737 * Makefile.am: Remove empty SUBDIRS line, as that prevents make
740 Sat Sep 9 20:04:13 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
742 * gobject.c (g_object_last_unref): Move call to
743 g_type_free_instance() here from g_object_do_finalize,
744 since g_type_free_instance() can unload the object's
747 2000-07-27 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
749 * gobject.c: No, don't mark glib_debug_objects for export here,
750 it's handled specially in gtktypeutils.c.
752 * gobject.def: Export g_type_fundamental_last (the function).
754 2000-07-26 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
757 * gobject.c: Mark glib_debug_objects for export/import as it is
760 Sun Jul 23 17:23:35 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
762 * gtype.[hc]: make g_type_fundamental_last() a function, avoiding all
763 that extern variable clutter and avoiding further problems with thread
766 2000-07-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
771 * gtype.c: Shut up Sun's picky compiler.
773 2000-07-14 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
775 * gobject.def: Add g_type_get_plugin.
777 Thu Jul 13 02:07:54 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
779 * gparam.c (g_param_value_defaults): default initialize the temporary
780 default value, instead of nuking the caller's value contents.
782 2000-07-11 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
784 * gtype.c (g_type_get_plugin): Don't return just 0 or 1.
786 Tue Jul 11 02:48:13 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
788 * gtype.[hc]: removed g_type_is_dynamic() and added g_type_get_plugin().
790 2000-07-10 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
792 * gobject-query.c: Include ../config.h for HAVE_UNISTD_H. Use it
793 to guard inclusion of <unistd.h>.
795 * gtype.h: Fix copy-paste errors in the ifdefs on how to declare a
796 variable for export. Call the macro GOBJECT_VAR.
798 * gtype.c: Declare _g_type_fundamental_last for export here, too.
799 (type_node_any_new): Use only constant expressions for sizeof
800 operator (for instance MSVC requires this).
802 * makefile.mingw.in: Define GOBJECT_COMPILATION.
804 Sun Jul 9 21:21:46 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
806 * genums.c: Move string.h include into the .c file
807 instead of where it was in the .h file by mistake.
809 Thu Jul 6 15:30:27 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
811 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): dist fixes.
813 * gobject.c: Add a global variable glib_debug_objects
814 (not in header file) to control object tracing.
816 2000-07-01 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
818 * gobject.def: Update added and renamed entry points.
820 * makefile.mingw.in: Add gvaluetypes.o.
822 Thu Jun 29 16:02:07 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
824 * gobject.c:include string.h for memset
825 * genums.h: include string.h for strcpy
826 * gvalue.c: include string.h for memset, memcpy.
828 Sat Jun 24 23:03:04 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
830 * gtype.[hc]: provide G_TYPE_CHAR, G_TYPE_UCHAR, G_TYPE_BOOLEAN,
831 G_TYPE_INT, G_TYPE_UINT, G_TYPE_LONG, G_TYPE_ULONG, G_TYPE_FLOAT,
832 G_TYPE_DOUBLE and G_TYPE_STRING fundamental types.
833 added a GTypeValueTable* pointer to GTypeInfo structure for types
834 to implement GValue handling functions.
835 GTypeValueTable contains the following members:
836 value_init(): initialize a GValue structure.
837 value_free(): free GValue structure contents (optional).
838 value_copy(): copy one GValue contents to another GValue structure of
839 collect_type: varargs collection type for the first variable argument
840 to be collected by collect_value().
841 collect_value(): variable arguments collection function (optional).
842 lcopy_type: varargs collection type for the first variable argument
843 to be location copyied by lcopy_value().
844 lcopy_value(): variable arguments location copy function (optional).
845 g_type_value_table_peek(): new function to retrive the GTypeValueTable*
846 for a type node. ValueTables get inherited from parent types, unless
847 overridden through the GTypeInfo structure. internally, GTypeValueTable
848 support means an added overhead of one pointer per static or used
850 g_type_add_class_cache_func(): provide a cache_func/data pair to be
851 called prior to a type nodes last_unref() function, this can be used
852 to prevent premature class destruction. multiple installed cache_func()
853 will be chained upon last_unref() untill one of them returns TRUE.
854 the cache_func()s have to check the class id passed in to figure whether
855 they actually want to cache the class of this type (since all classes
856 are routed through the cache_func() chain).
857 g_type_remove_class_cache_func(): remove a previously installed
858 cache_func/data pair. the cache maintained by this function has to be
859 clear when calling g_type_remove_class_cache_func() to avoid leaks.
860 g_type_class_unref_uncached(): class unref function for cache_func()
861 implementations, unreferences a class omitting the cache chain (and
862 therefore unref->cache->unref->... loops).
864 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: provide the value setters/getters for the primitive
865 fundamental types boolean, char, uchar, int, uint, long, ulong, float,
868 * gvalue.[hc]: provide G_TYPE_IS_VALUE() in terms of whether a
869 GTypeValueTable is provided for this type.
870 removed g_value_init_default(), g_value_validate(), g_value_defaults(),
871 g_value_set_default() and g_values_cmp() as these are supplied by the
873 moved g_values_exchange() into the "implementation details" section,
874 since it just provides the underlying functionality for
877 * gvaluecollector.h: renamed the varargs value container from
878 GParamCValue to GTypeCValue as the value collection methods are
879 supplied by the type system now.
880 G_PARAM_COLLECT_VALUE() and G_PARAM_LCOPY_VALUE() got renamed to
881 G_VALUE_COLLECT() and G_VALUE_LCOPY() and operate without a
882 GParamSpec structure now.
884 * genums.h: macros cleanups/fixes.
886 * genum.c: provide G_TYPE_ENUM and G_TYPE_FLAGS type
887 and assorted g_value_{s|g}et_{enum|flags}() implementations.
890 provide G_IS_VALUE_OBJECT(), G_TYPE_OBJECT ValueTable methods
891 and g_value_{s|g}et_object().
893 * gparam.[hc]: reduced class to value_set_default(),
894 value_validate() and values_cmp(). also parameters now need to fill
895 in a GType value_type; field to indicate the GValue type they
896 are handling. provide g_param_value_set_default(),
897 g_param_value_defaults(), g_param_value_validate() and
898 g_param_values_cmp().
900 * gparamspecs.[hc]: got rid of the g_value_* functions and
901 the G_IS_VALUE_* macros. adapted param spec implementations
902 according to the GParamSpecClass changes.
904 Sat Jun 10 08:38:27 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
906 * gtype.c (type_class_init): fetch the nth iface entry of the
907 type node in the nth loop iteration, not alwys the first.
908 bug discovered by Walt Pohl <cher@suitware.com>.
909 (type_data_finalize_class_ifaces): same here, cut and paste
912 Wed Jun 7 09:21:05 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
914 * Makefile.am (INCLUDES): Add top_builddir so glibconfig.h
915 is found properly when build srcdir != builddir. (Patch from
918 2000-05-13 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
922 * gobject.rc.in: New files, for Win32 (mingw) build.
924 * Makefile.am: Add to EXTRA_DIST. Add rules to produce the
925 corresponding non-*.in files.
927 * gtype.h: (Win32:) Mark _g_type_fundamental_last for
928 export/import from DLL.
930 Fri May 5 01:15:48 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
932 * gtype.h: add reserved fundamental ids for gtk types (for transition
933 time). added G_TYPE_FUNDAMENTAL_MAX for gtk.
935 Mon Apr 17 20:45:50 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
937 * glib-gobject.c (g_object_base_class_finalize): oops, don't unset
938 n_params prior to destructing them.
940 Tue Apr 11 04:28:10 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
942 * fixed a couple of bugs in the initial parameter/object
943 implementations, after getting beast running on GObject and GValue.
945 Fri Apr 7 04:27:49 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
947 * glib-gobject.[hc]: completed parameter set/get implementations,
948 along with asyncronous parameter changed notification queue.
950 Sun Apr 2 04:54:36 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
952 * glib-gobject.[hc]: GObject implementation, that is facilities
953 for setting/getting quarked data and reference counting.
955 * glib-gparamspecs.[hc]: first actuall parameter implementations
956 for GLib, so far we have: char, uchar, bool, int, uint, long,
957 ulong, enum, flags, float, double, string and object. each of these
958 GParamSpecs is a new instantiatable type in its own respect,
959 so the .c file derives 13 new types from G_TYPE_PARAM and
960 defines over 50 (*2) conversion facilities.
962 * glib-gvaluecollector.h: generic varargs handling stubs for
963 GParamSpecs, private header file (does get installed for
964 inclusion into user code though).
966 * glib-gvalue.[hc]: GValue functionality implementation.
968 * glib-gparam.[hc]: basis GParamSpec implementation for
969 the virtual base type G_TYPE_PARAM.
971 * glib-genums.[hc]: enum/flags type implementation, based on
974 * glib-gtype.[hc]: GLib Type System implementation, heavily
975 based on BSE's dynamic type system.
