1 Tue Nov 13 22:16:41 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
3 * gtype.[hc]: API cleanups.
4 remove g_type_check_flags(), provide g_type_test_flags() as
6 s/g_type_check_is_a/g_type_check_class_is_a/, private function.

15 * gclosure.h: provide G_CLOSURE_N_NOTIFIERS() for people that need
16 to walk the notifier list (puhh, black magic, stay-away-warning ;).
18 Mon Nov 5 18:59:08 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
21 * gsignal.h: we need signal.h for G_BREAKPOINT().
23 Sun Nov 4 14:01:23 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
25 * gvaluetypes.[ch]: Add a function g_pointer_type_register_static()
26 to register a type derived from G_TYPE_POINTER.
28 2001-11-03 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>
30 * makefile.msc.in : gobject-query needs gmarshal.[hc,stings]
31 so build it after them. Add gsourceclosure.obj.
33 * gobject.def : removed duplicates, added mising
35 Mon Oct 29 11:05:15 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
37 * glib-mkenums.in: Generate glib-mkenums from glib-mkenums.in,

48 2001-10-23 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
50 * Makefile.am: (Win32): If we have built the MSVC import library,
51 install it. Install the gcc import library. Also support

85 2001-10-03 jacob berkman <jacob@ximian.com>
87 * gtype.c (type_iface_retrieve_holder_info_Wm):
88 (type_iface_vtable_init_Wm):
89 (type_iface_vtable_finalize_Wm):
92 * gobject.c (g_object_get_property): s/retrive/retrieve/
94 2001-09-25 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
96 * Makefile.am: Use new macros for .def file, and check for
97 MS_LIB_AVAILABLE, new rule to build MS import library.
99 * makefile.msc.in: Use same DLL and import library names as
102 2001-09-21 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>
104 * gobject.def : updated externals
106 2001-09-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>

116 g_param_get_name() accessors.
118 Mon Sep 10 20:31:37 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
120 * gobject.[hc]: removed extraneous GObject* returns from a
121 couple functions that are very unlikely to be used in nested.
122 changed gpointer->GObject* for a couple return values/arguments.
125 Mon Sep 10 19:27:47 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
128 g_type_add_interface*(): implement the ability to add an interface to
129 a type whose parents already conform to this interface.
130 such "overriding" interfaces, when initialized, are not just initialized
131 with 0, but with a copy of the interface they override.
132 g_type_interface_peek_parent(): new function, return the interface
133 that this interface "overrides", if any.
135 * testgruntime.c: test new interface stuff.
137 2001-09-10 Alex Larsson <alexl@redhat.com>
139 * gobject/gboxed.[ch]:
140 * gobject/gsourceclosure.c:
141 Removed is_refcounted and GBoxedInitFunc from
142 g_boxed_type_register_static().
144 Sat Sep 8 14:13:57 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
146 * gobject/Makefile.am: Move gbsearcharray.[ch] to glib
147 as a private ininstalled header.
149 Tue Sep 4 22:24:48 2001 Matthias Clasen <matthiasc@poet.de>

153 Tue Sep 4 01:49:18 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
155 * gsourceclosure.c: make closure_callback_funcs static,
156 added some g_return_if_fail() statements.
158 Mon Aug 27 14:55:27 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
160 * gsourceclosure.[ch] (g_source_set_closure): Implement.
162 * gsourceclosure.[ch]: Add GType's for GIOChannel, GIOCondition.
164 2001-08-17 James Henstridge <james@daa.com.au>
166 * gobject.c (WeakRefStack): add an object member to the structure.
167 (weak_refs_notify): pass wstack->object as extra argument to
169 (g_object_weak_ref): set wstack->object when initialising
172 * gobject.h (GWeakNotify): add second argument to prototype which
173 gives the pointer to where the object that is being disposed of
176 Wed Jul 18 19:42:31 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
178 * gtype.h: if __GNUC__ is defined, inline a test for an exact type
179 match for instances and classes in G_TYPE_CHECK_INSTANCE_TYPE() and
180 G_TYPE_CHECK_CLASS_TYPE() before calling g_type_instance_is_a().
182 Sun Aug 12 02:07:10 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
184 * gvaluearray.[hc]: fix preallocation logic, support DISABLE_MEM_POOLS
185 properly, group value allocations.
186 (g_value_array_new): fix semantic of n_prealloced argument, so it's
187 really just about preallocation space.
189 2001-07-23 Padraig O'Briain <Padraig.Obriain@Sun.COM>
191 * gobject/gobjectnotifyqueue.c: fix unconditional check of
192 first GParamSpec in g_object_notify_queue_thaw(); to prevent
193 property notification being lost.
195 2001-08-06 Sven Neumann <sven@gimp.org>
198 added new functions g_object_[add|remove]_weak_pointer().
200 2001-08-01 Sven Neumann <sven@gimp.org>
202 * gsignal.h: added convenience macro g_signal_connect_after().
204 2001-07-29 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>
206 * gobject.def : updated externals
208 2001-07-20 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>
210 * gobject.def : updated externals
212 * makefile.msc.in : reflect glib move
214 Tue Jul 10 18:50:16 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
216 * gsignal.h (struct _GSignalQuery): fix misplaced comment.
218 Mon Jul 2 07:17:47 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
220 * gobject.c (g_object_weak_ref):
221 (g_object_watch_closure): congrats tim, introducing of-by-one
222 errors like on my very first day of C programming.
224 Sat Jun 30 11:07:00 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
226 * gobject.[hc]: provide weak_ref/weak_unref functions,
227 invoked from ->dispose. renamed ->shutdown() to ->dispose(),
228 provide "public" API entry here: g_object_run_dispose(), this
229 fucntion should _only_ be called from object system implementations
230 (e.g. gtkobject.c) if at all.
232 * gtypemodule.c (g_type_module_dispose): s/shutdown/dispose/
234 * gsignal.h: removed compat aliases.
236 * gobject.c (g_object_connect): support data objects.
238 Sat Jun 30 13:17:12 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
240 * testgruntime.c (test_object_class_init)
241 gobject.c (g_object_do_class_init):
242 g_signal_newc() => g_signal_new().
244 Thu Jun 28 22:49:40 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
246 * gtype.[ch] gobject-query.c testgruntime.c: Remove
247 debug flag argument to g_type_init() and add
248 g_type_init_with_debug_flags().
250 Thu Jun 28 16:42:49 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
252 * gsignal.c (g_signal_lookup):
253 (g_signal_list_ids): give elaborate warnings about invalid types,
254 non-instantiatable types and unloaded types that we can't operate on.
256 * gparam.[hc]: g_param_spec_pool_belongings() ->
257 g_param_spec_pool_list_owned().
259 * gsignal.[hc]: renamed:
260 g_signal_newc -> g_signal_new
261 g_signal_disconnect_by_func -> g_signal_handlers_disconnect_by_func
262 g_signal_block_by_func -> g_signal_handlers_block_by_func
263 g_signal_unblock_by_func -> g_signal_handlers_unblock_by_func
264 added GConnectType to simplify (..gboolean swapped, gboolean after)
267 * gobject.[hc]: changed prototypes accordingly.
269 2001-06-22 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>
271 * gobject.def : updated externals
273 * gobjectnotifyqueue.c : include <string.h> for memset ()
275 Thu Jun 21 02:43:10 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
277 * gparamspecs.h: s/long/int/ for default_value in enum and flags
280 Wed Jun 20 03:59:42 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
282 * gtype.[hc]: added debugging variants g_type_name_from_class(),
283 g_type_name_from_instance().
285 Mon Jun 11 17:07:06 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
287 * gboxed.[hc]: remove left-over usages of an anonymous GBoxed typedef.
289 * gobjectnotifyqueue.c: moved property notify queue implementation
290 bits into this function.
292 * gparam.[hc]: added g_param_spec_pool_belongings(), completed
293 g_param_spec_pool_list(). added GParameter for _setv() functions.
295 * gobject.[hc]: use gobjectnotifyqueue.h implementation now.
296 got rid of properties_changed signal.
297 new functions g_object_newv(), g_object_class_list_properties().
298 removed "properties_changed" signal.
300 * gtype.[hc]: added g_type_depth() to figure number of parent
301 types + 1 for a type.
303 * gsignal.h: add g_signal_connect() (as per owen's request) and
304 g_signal_connect_swapped().
306 2001-06-13 Havoc Pennington <hp@redhat.com>
308 * Makefile.am (progs_LDADD): link to ./libgobject-1.3.la
309 since an installed libgobject was somehow being found; think
310 it's a libtool bug, but this workaround should do for now.
312 2001-06-12 Havoc Pennington <hp@redhat.com>
314 * Makefile.am (glib-mkenums): don't put $(srcdir)/glib-mkenums in
315 bin_SCRIPTS, that breaks make install. Instead put 'glib-mkenums'
316 in bin_SCRIPTS and cp it into builddir
318 Thu May 31 17:56:47 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
320 * gobject-query.c: Fix mispelling in help output.
321 (#53952, Skip Montanaro)
323 2001-05-28 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
325 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Really distribute glib-mkenums, now
326 that bin_SCRIPTS doesn't seem to care about doing so anymore.
328 Mon May 28 06:51:24 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
330 * gsignal.c (signal_emit_unlocked_R): fixed bad faux-pass, forgot
331 to release signal lock when restarting emissions.
333 Sun May 27 04:52:28 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
335 * gsignal.[hc] (g_signal_stop_emission_by_name): added variant
336 to stop signal emissions through a detailed_signal string.
338 * gsignal.c (signal_emit_R) (g_signal_emit_valist): account for
339 the fact that g_value_* functions may cause signal emissons by
340 unlocking the global signal system lock around g_value_* functions.
341 (signal_emit_unlocked_R): renamed this from signal_emit_R() to reflect
342 that this functions acquires the lock on its own now.
344 2001-05-24 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>
346 * makefile.msc.in : changed depndencies to build glib-genmarshal
347 first and statically linked with glib, which makes it independent
348 from the installed glib version. Added new object files to build.
350 * gobject.def : updated
352 Thu May 24 08:52:02 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
354 * gobject.[ch] (g_value_set_object): gpointer, not
357 2001-05-22 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
359 * Makefile.am (bin_SCRIPTS): made 'make distcheck' happy.
361 * gobject.def: Removed g_param_spec_stringc.
363 Tue May 22 02:46:13 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
365 * gobject.c (g_value_set_object): make g_value_set_object()
366 take a gpointer v_object so people don't need to G_OBJECT()
367 cast NULL pointers (C code convenience).
369 Mon May 14 01:49:01 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
371 * gsignal.[hc] (g_signal_handler_is_connected): new function
372 to check whether a handler is still connected to an instance
375 Thu May 10 14:00:48 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
377 * gparamspecs.[hc]: removed g_param_spec_stringc() in lack of
378 evidence of public need.
380 * gsignal.h: added g_signal_disconnect_by_func(),
381 g_signal_block_by_func() and g_signal_unblock_by_func() convenience
382 macros as per owen's request.
384 * gtype.c (SIZEOF_FUNDAMENTAL_INFO): align sizeof (GTypeFundamentalInfo)
385 to size of longs and pointers.
387 2001-05-05 James Henstridge <james@daa.com.au>
389 * Makefile.am: glib-mkenums is not a compiled program, so shouldn't
390 be in the bin_PROGRAMS primary. Put it in bin_SCRIPTS instead, and
391 removed the glib_mkenums_SOURCES var.
393 Thu May 3 06:10:23 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
395 * gobject.c (g_object_set_[q]data_full): Make types of ternary
396 operator correspond. (Fixes compilation errors with Sun CC,
399 Mon Apr 30 20:03:56 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
401 * glib-mkenums (usage): removed \v escaping, newer perl versions don't
402 support this, and it'S probably useless anyways.
404 Sat Apr 28 23:39:42 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
406 * gsignal.[hc]: made signal handler and emission hook ids gulongs.
407 (signal_handlers_foreach_matched_R): only invoke callback for handlers
408 that are not disconnected (id>0).
409 (signal_emit_R): prevent invocation of signal handlers during the
410 emission they were connected within.
412 * glib-mkenums: publically installed perl-script to parse C code
413 enums and generate descriptions thereof.
414 * glib-mkenums.1: assorted man page.
416 2001-04-19 Havoc Pennington <hp@redhat.com>
418 * gobject.c (g_object_get_valist): We were returning junk memory
419 here, because we didn't copy the value (G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS
420 passed to G_VALUE_LCOPY) and then we freed the GValue immediately
421 after. Removed G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS from here; need a
422 G_VALUE_STEAL_CONTENTS or the like if we want this optimization.
424 Wed Apr 18 09:46:56 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
426 * gobject.c gsignal.c: Change C++ comments for FIXME's to
427 C comments. (Patch from Andres Salomon)
429 2001-04-14 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>
431 * gobject.def : updated
433 Mon Apr 9 18:56:15 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
435 * gclosure.c (g_closure_invoke): only require marshal/meta_marshal if
436 we're valid (about to actually do marshalling).
438 Tue Apr 3 20:23:24 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
442 Tue Apr 3 14:06:00 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
444 * gparam.[hc]: added g_param_spec_pool_list() to list pspecs per
445 owner_type. the pspecs are not referenced, so the caller is
446 supposed to have some idea about owner_type not randomly
447 nuking his pspec's. if this is going to provide problems in
448 the future, we can either auto-ref the pspecs, or add a
449 _foreach variant, though the latter would have to invoke
450 the callback while pspec's mutex is acquired, so i just
451 went for the _list variant for now.
453 * gclosure.h (G_CALLBACK): made GCallback a void (*) (void) fucntion.
455 Sat Mar 31 23:55:58 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
458 * gparamspecs.[hc]: applied patch from owen to implement
461 Fri Mar 30 07:34:02 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
463 * gtype.c (type_iface_retrive_holder_info_Wm):
464 * gtypeplugin.c (g_type_plugin_complete_interface_info):
465 * gtypemodule.c (g_type_module_complete_interface_info):
466 change order of instance_type and interface_type so they match
467 the g_type_add_interface_*() API.
469 * gsignal.c (g_signal_emit_valist): always assign C return value
470 location, people depending on unaltered return values after emissions
471 that had no handlers to run need to use g_signal_emitv().
473 * gtype.[hc] (g_type_query): new function to allow querying of
474 class and object size (semantics like g_signal_query()).
475 currently the implementation is better held conservative so as to
476 only support types that are classed and static.
478 2001-03-29 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
480 * gobject.def: Updates.
482 Wed Mar 28 17:04:06 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
484 * gobject.c (object_queue_property): only queue readable properties
485 for notification changes.
487 Thu Mar 22 13:36:50 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
489 * gsignal.c (g_signal_newv): catch G_SIGNAL_RUN_FIRST with a return value.
491 2001-03-21 Martin Baulig <baulig@suse.de>
493 * gboxed.[ch] (g_value_dup_boxed): This takes a `const GValue *'
496 2001-03-18 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
498 * gobject.def: Correct some renamed functions.
500 Sat Mar 17 23:18:36 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
502 * gobject.c (g_object_get_property): minor bug-fix.
504 * gbsearcharray.[hc]: provide a macro for static initialization and
505 functions g_bsearch_array_new() and g_bsearch_array_destroy() for
508 * gboxed.c: introduce G_TYPE_GSTRING, boxed type for GString.
510 * gclosure.[hc]: naming corrections.
512 Fri Mar 9 16:42:08 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
514 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: moved g_strdup_value_contents() into this file as
515 a public function (was static in gobject.c before). it's a bit odd
516 to have that function here, especially since it requires extra includes,
517 but then it doesn't very well fit somewhere else either.
519 * gparamspecs.c: added default/max/min checks to param spec creation
522 2001-03-10 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
524 * gobject.def: Add a couple of missing entries.
526 * Makefile.am (libgobject_1_3_la_LIBADD): Use only on Win32.
528 Fri Mar 9 14:57:17 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
530 * testgruntime.c: test program. covers run first/last/cleanup signal
531 handlers, return value accumulator, signal string returns, and
532 interface types in signal arguments.
534 * gtype.c (g_type_value_table_peek): for interface types without
535 value table, try looking up a value table from an instantiatable
536 prerequisite type (this is safe as an interface may only have
537 one instantiatable prerequisiste).
538 (type_check_is_value_type_U): same here.
540 * gsignal.c (g_signal_newv): assert that return types never have
541 G_SIGNAL_TYPE_STATIC_SCOPE set.
542 (g_signal_newc): only create class closure if the class_offset is not
545 Fri Mar 9 10:14:00 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
547 * gparamspecs.c (g_param_spec_object): use g_type_is_a() to check
548 for object_type being a G_TYPE_OBJECT, not G_TYPE_IS_OBJECT(), since
549 that wouldn't allow interface types.
551 * gtype.c (g_type_interface_add_prerequisite): arg, fixed small cnp bug
552 with bad implications and an off-by-one error.
554 Thu Mar 8 16:34:22 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
556 * gvaluetransform.c: Include <string.h> for memcpy.
558 * gvaluetransform.c (DEFINE_SPRINTF): Remove unnecessary
559 and ANSI-illegal ## token pasting.
561 Thu Mar 8 18:11:52 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
563 * gsignal.c: eek, fixed old hook detail storage code.
565 Thu Mar 8 16:35:48 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
567 * gparamspecs.[hc]: s/g_param_spec_string_c/g_param_spec_stringc/.
569 * gsignal.[hc]: fixed accumulator invocation, implemented emission
570 hooks. and no, neither of these callbacks are called via a closure,
571 language bindings can wrap the accumulator and emission hook
572 interface, they already get parameters marshalled into a GValue array.
573 (g_signal_connect): removed this function as its C specific, doesn't
574 cover the swapped argument, is too close to its broken original
575 gtk_signal_connect() and creates demand for _swapped, _after and
576 _swapped_after variants <brrr>.
577 (g_signal_connectc): convenience macro to connect a C handler
578 func with data, like the old g_signal_connect() plus swapped
582 * gboxed.c: added G_TYPE_VALUE boxed type.
584 Wed Mar 7 19:02:51 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
586 * gtype.c (type_node_add_iface_entry_W): catch when adding an interface
587 to an ancestor of a child that already conforms to this interface.
588 currently we spew a warning here, should we be silent?
589 (g_type_interface_add_prerequisite): new function to add a prerequisite
590 type to an interface, that must succeed an instance is_a prerequisite
591 type check before the interface can be added to an instance. the
592 prerequisite types are also suuported in is_a checks of the interface.
593 (g_type_instance_is_a):
594 (g_type_check_instance_cast):
595 (g_type_check_instance): cleanups and optimizations.
597 (g_type_check_class_cast): same, also prevented these from accepting
598 interface types, as class structures don't nest interfaces.
600 2001-03-07 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
602 * Makefile.am: Avoid rebuilding everything everytime.
604 Wed Mar 7 09:36:33 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
606 * gboxed.[hc]: changed prototype of g_boxed_type_register_static()
607 to contain an optional init function and a hint at whether the
608 boxed structure uses ref counting internally.
609 added g_value_set_boxed_take_ownership().
610 made G_TYPE_BOXED an abstract value type.
612 * genums.[hc]: made G_TYPE_ENUM and G_TYPE_FLAGS abstract value
615 * glib-genmarshal.c: argument type changes, preparation for third-party
618 * gobject.[hc]: cleaned up get/set property code.
619 added g_strdup_value_contents() to improve warnings.
621 * gparam.[hc]: added g_param_value_convert(), taking over responsibility
622 of the old g_value_convert(). added G_PARAM_LAX_VALIDATION flag so
623 validation alterations may be valid a part of the property setting
626 * gparamspecs.[hc]: made value comparisons stable (for sort applications).
627 added GParamSpecValueArray, a param spec for value arrays and
628 GParamSpecClosure. nuked the value exchange functions and
631 * gtype.[hc]: catch unintialized usages of the type system with
632 g_return_val_if_uninitialized(). introduced G_TYPE_FLAG_VALUE_ABSTRACT
633 to flag types that introduce a value table, but can't be used for
634 g_value_init(). cleaned up reserved type ids.
636 * gvalue.[hc]: code cleanups and saner checking.
637 nuked the value exchange API. implemented value transformations, we
638 can't really "convert" values, rather transforms are an anylogy to
639 C casts, real conversions need a param spec for validation, which is
640 why g_param_value_convert() does real conversions now.
642 * gvaluearray.[hc]: new files that implement a GValueArray, a struct
643 that can hold inhomogeneous arrays of value (to that extend that it
644 also allowes undefined values, i.e. G_VALUE_TYPE(value)==0).
645 this is exposed to the type system as a boxed type.
647 * gvaluetransform.c: new file implementing most of the former value
648 exchange functions as single-sided transformations.
650 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: nuked G_TYPE_CCALLBACK, added
651 g_value_set_string_take_ownership().
653 * *.h: s/G_IS_VALUE_/G_VALUE_HOLDS_/.
655 * *.[hc]: many fixes and cleanups.
657 * many warning improvements.
659 Tue Feb 27 18:35:15 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
661 * gobject.c (g_object_get_valist): urg, pass G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS
662 into G_VALUE_LCOPY(), this needs proper documenting.
664 * gparam.c: fixed G_PARAM_USER_MASK.
666 * gtype.c (type_data_make_W):
667 (type_data_last_unref_Wm): fixed invalid memory freeing.
669 * gobject.c (g_object_last_unref): destroy signal handlers associated
670 with object, right before finalization.
672 * gsignal.c (g_signal_parse_name): catch destroyed nodes or signals
673 that don't actually support details.
675 * gobject.[hc]: got rid of property trailers. nuked GObject
676 properties "data" and the "signal" variants.
677 (g_object_connect): new convenience function to do multiple
678 signal connections at once.
679 (g_object_disconnect): likewise, for disconnections.
681 * gparam.[hc] (g_param_spec_pool_lookup): took out trailer support.
683 * gvalue.[hc]: marked g_value_fits_pointer() and g_value_peek_pointer()
684 as private (the latter got renamed from g_value_get_as_pointer()).
686 2001-02-21 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
688 * *.h: Use G_BEGIN_DECLS and G_END_DECLS.
690 * Makefile.am: Use libglib-1.3.la from top_builddir. Invoke
691 libtool with -no-undefined for Win32 and Cygwin.
693 Wed Feb 21 18:31:46 2001 Jonathan Blandford <jrb@redhat.com>
695 * gsignal.h (g_signal_connect): Add g_signal_connect define to
696 make porting from gtk_signal_connect easy.
698 * gsignal.c (g_signal_emit_valist): Use G_TYPE_FROM_INSTANCE
699 (instance) instead of node->itype when initting the value.
701 2001-02-17 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>
703 Applied patch from Soeren Sandmann:
705 * gvaluetypes.c (g_value_get_string): G_CONST_RETURN
707 * gtype.c (g_type_name): G_CONST_RETURN
709 * gsignal.c (g_signal_name): G_CONST_RETURN
711 * gobject-query.c (main): const fix
713 Sat Feb 17 07:58:46 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
715 * genums.h (G_TYPE_IS_FLAGS): patch from sven to fixup
716 G_ENUM_CLASS_TYPE() macro.
718 Sat Feb 17 04:55:35 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
720 * gtype.[hc]: changed collect_format, collect_value() and lcopy_format,
721 lcopy_value() in the GTypeValueTable. the collect functions are now
722 called only once per value, collect_format/lcopy_format are strings
723 that enlist all necessary GTypeCValues to be varargs-collected.
725 * gvalue.h: ranamed STATIC_TAG to G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS to indicate that
726 a value shouldn't copy its contents.
728 * gvaluecollector.h: changed G_VALUE_COLLECT() and G_VALUE_LCOPY()
729 macros to carry an additional argument (flags) that can be used
730 to pass G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS along to the collection functions.
732 * *.c: adapted collect_value() and lcopy_value() functions to the new
733 prototypes, support G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS where apropriate.
735 * gsignal.[hc]: introduced a G_SIGNAL_TYPE_STATIC_SCOPE flag that can
736 be passed along (ORed) with the parameter types, indicating that the
737 emission arguments are to be considered static for the scope of the
738 emission. should be used with care and only if the caller knows that
739 a parameter cannot be destroyed/freed from signal handlers connected
742 Fri Feb 16 07:10:44 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
746 (g_closure_sink): make closure sinking explicit.
749 (g_signal_connect_data):
750 (g_signal_connect_closure):
751 (g_signal_connect_closure_by_id):
752 (g_signal_newv): perform explicit closure sinking.
754 Thu Feb 8 00:31:45 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
756 * gtype.h: added G_TYPE_DEBUG_NONE for/from Eric Lemings ;)
758 2001-02-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
760 * gobject.def: Remove glib_debug_objects.
762 Sun Feb 4 07:30:53 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
764 * gtype.[hc]: changed g_type_init() to take debugging flags
765 initially, a combination of G_TYPE_DEBUG_OBJECTS and
766 G_TYPE_DEBUG_SIGNALS. using the G_TYPE_ prefix is a bit odd
767 here, but basically g_type_int() serves as initialization
768 fucntion for all of GType, GObject, GSignal, so what the heck.
770 * gobject.c: special case debugging code properly.
771 changed glib_trap_object_ref to g_trap_object_ref.
773 * gsignal.c: add signal emission debugging abilities, along with
774 a new trap object g_trap_instance_signals.
776 2001-02-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
778 * Makefile.am (progs_LDADD): Change order of libs to libgobject
779 first, then libglib. Needed for cygwin, says jbdoll@kepri.re.kr.
781 Wed Jan 31 06:19:49 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
783 * gparam.h: gtk-doc sucks for not dealing with #define inside enums.
785 * gtype.[hc]: added G_TYPE_FLAG_RESERVED_ID_BIT, a bit in the type
786 number that's supposed to be left untouched (preserved mainly
787 for the signal code).
789 * *.c: added thread safety code, based on an old patch from sebastian.
790 the remaining thread safety issues are now datalists on pspecs (to be
791 solved im gdataset.c) and gvalue.c where locking concerns value exchange
792 functionality only, and that's soon to be revised.
794 2001-01-27 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
796 * makefile.msc.in: Don't try to compile gmarshal.c on its own.
798 2001-01-24 <alexl@redhat.com>
800 * gclosure.c (g_closure_unref):
801 Don't leak closure->notifiers.
803 2001-01-05 Havoc Pennington <hp@redhat.com>
805 * gparamspecs.c (g_param_spec_enum): set the value_type in the
806 param spec; closes bug 40210
807 (g_param_spec_flags): ditto for flags
809 2001-01-03 Alexander Larsson <alexl@redhat.com>
812 Move glib_debug_objects out of the G_ENABLE_DEBUG #ifdef.
814 Thu Dec 28 11:36:44 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
816 * gbsearcharray.c (upper_power2): disable G_BSEARCH_ALIGN_POWER2
817 fucntionality if DISABLE_MEM_POOLS is defined.
819 * gtype.c: honour DISABLE_MEM_POOLS.
821 * gsignal.c (g_signal_init): flag signal key bsearch array with
822 G_BSEARCH_ALIGN_POWER2 to avoid excessive growth time. honour
825 * gparam.h: added G_PARAM_READWRITE alias for (G_PARAM_READABLE |
828 2000-12-15 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
830 * gobject.def: Update.
832 2000-12-15 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>
834 * gobject.c (g_object_do_class_init): use g_signal_newc
836 * gsignal.c (g_signal_newc): convenience function for signals
838 (g_signal_new_valist): added
839 (g_signal_new): removed
841 Fri Dec 15 04:40:23 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
843 * gparam.[hc]: add an instance member value_type so the default
844 value of the pspec class can be overridden.
846 2000-12-14 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
848 * makefile.mingw.in: Update, include parts from Makefile.am to
849 build gmarshal.[ch]. Some day, we won't need these separate
850 makefiles for Win32 compilation. I hope.
852 * makefile.msc.in: Update. No use trying to build gmarshal.[ch]
853 here, it would require Unixish tools. MSVC users building from CVS
854 sources are out of luck.
856 * gobject.def: Update.
858 Wed Dec 13 09:31:26 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
860 * gparamspecs.[hc]: add G_TYPE_PARAM_BOXED implementation.
862 * gobject.[hc]: minor fixes.
864 Tue Dec 12 23:38:02 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
866 * Makefile.am: _never_ touch oldest-source-stamp.
868 * gobject.[hc]: construct property handling fixes/improvements.
869 fixed trailer handling in get/set property.
871 * gparam.[hc]: implement param spec pool, got rid of param spec
872 hashtable. the most prominent change is that e deal with type
875 2000-12-12 Elliot Lee <sopwith@redhat.com>
878 . You have to 'touch oldest-source-stamp' if you want to avoid having
879 the Makefile constantly rebuild itself.
880 . Fix marshaller generation rules to work with srcdir != builddir
881 (there were issues with trying to run "./glib-genmarshal", etc.)
883 Mon Dec 11 04:44:11 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
885 * gboxed.c: fixed dealing with collection/lcopy of NULL values.
887 * gclosure.h: removed insane ramblings, added G_CALLBACK() a casting
890 * Makefile.am: cleanups, marshaller generation rules.
892 * gmarshal.[hc]: new files with GRuntime standard marshallers.
894 * glib-genmarshal.c: fix log domain, support gruntime standard
895 marshallers, suport G_TYPE_PARAM, come with extern "C" and
898 * glib-genmarshal.1: reflect glib-genmarshal.c updates.
900 * gobject.[hc]: implement object constructor. rework parameter
901 changed notification queueing, we support queue freezes now and
902 don't dispatch from an idle handler anymore.
903 parameter->property rename hassle.
904 implemented ::properties_changed and ::notify::* signals for
905 property change notification (the later supports property names
906 as details). added signal connection and named data properties.
907 (g_signal_connect_object): new function to setup while_alive
909 (g_object_class_install_property): sink properties now, since they
910 are initially floating.
911 (g_object_steal_data):
912 (g_object_set_data_full):
914 (g_object_get_data): set/get data by using g_datalist_*() functions
916 (g_object_queue_param_changed): nuked.
917 (g_object_freeze_notify): start queueing of property changes (freeze/
919 (g_object_notify): announce changes of a certain property directly.
920 (g_object_thaw_notify): process queue of property changes, therefore
921 emitting GObject::notify::detail with detail being the changed
923 (G_OBJECT_WARN_INVALID_PROPERTY_ID): saner macro variant of former
924 G_WARN_INVALID_PARAM_ID().
926 * gparam.[hc]: param specs are now initially floating and need to be
927 sunken with g_param_spec_sink(), support G_TYPE_PARAM values.
928 added G_PARAM_CONSTRUCT and G_PARAM_CONSTRUCT_ONLY parameter flags,
929 required by GObjectClass.constructor().
931 * gparamspecs.[hc]: added GParamSpecParam, GParamSpecPointer and
932 GParamSpecCCallback, param specs for G_TYPE_PARAM, G_TYPE_POINTER
933 and G_TYPE_CCALLBACK respectively.
935 * gsignal.[hc]: cleanups.
936 (signal_id_lookup): after walking the anchestry, try interfaces as well.
937 (g_signal_new): new function to create signals from varargs type list.
938 (g_signal_connect_closure): closure connection variant that works from
940 (g_signal_connect_data): c handler connection variant that works from
942 (g_signal_emit_valist): emit signal for an instance with paraneters
943 collected from a va_list.
944 (g_signal_emit): emit signal, taking parameters from varargs list.
945 (g_signal_emit_by_name): same as g_signal_emit, working from
947 (signal_emit_R): return whether return_value needs to be altered.
949 * gtype.[hc]: set log-domain to GRuntime, i'm slowly getting to all
950 the points that need to reflect the upcoming rename.
951 melt g_type_conforms_to() functionality into g_type_is_a(), as that
952 is what we really want (liskov substitution principle).
953 assorted changes to other files due to conforms_to->is_a.
955 * gvalue.[hc]: implemented g_value_set_instance() that sets a value
956 from an instantiatable type via the value_table's collect_value()
957 function (based on an idea from James Henstridge <james@daa.com.au>).
960 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: implement G_TYPE_CCALLBACK and G_TYPE_PARAM.
962 Wed Nov 29 13:30:05 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
964 * gsignal.c (handlers_find): fix elliots "logic fix" that dereferences
965 NULL nodes if C handlers are searched for specific signals.
967 2000-11-28 Elliot Lee <sopwith@redhat.com>
969 * gsignal.c: Fix warnings about possible use of uninitialized
970 variables, and fix logic that would leave 'node' unset in cases
971 that it might be used in.
973 * glib-genmarshal.c: Fix warning about printf format.
975 2000-11-28 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
977 * gboxed.c: Include <string.h> for memset ().
979 2000-11-22 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
981 * gobject.def: Update.
983 2000-11-20 Havoc Pennington <hp@redhat.com>
985 * gobject.c (g_object_get_data)
987 (g_object_set_data_full)
988 (g_object_steal_data): More convenient data-setting functions
990 Wed Nov 15 20:58:05 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
992 * gtypemodule.c (g_type_module_use): If loading the
993 module fails, don't increment the use count.
995 Thu Nov 9 01:49:43 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
997 * gobject.h (G_WARN_INVALID_PARAM_ID): doh,
998 s/BSE_OBJECT_TYPE_NAME/G_OBJECT_TYPE_NAME/; reported by Maas-Maarten
999 Zeeman <maas@wanadoo.nl>.
1001 Mon Nov 13 00:48:39 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
1003 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add glib-genmarshal.1
1005 2000-11-11 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
1007 * gtypemodule.c: Include stdlib.h for exit().
1009 * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in (gobject_OBJECTS): Add gtypemodule.
1011 * gobject.def: Add missing functions.
1013 Sun Nov 5 13:21:28 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
1015 * Makefile.am gtypemodule.[ch]: New basic implementation of
1016 GTypePlugin interface as a GObject. Dynamically loaded modules can
1017 register any number of types and interface on the module.
1019 Sun Nov 5 10:25:40 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
1021 * gsignal.c (handlers_find): When appending handlers and
1022 not matching on signal_id, use hlist->signal_id instead of
1023 signal_id. Having the correct signal_id when unreffing
1024 the handlers makes things work a lot better.
1026 2000-11-05 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
1028 * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in (gobject_OBJECTS): Add gtypeplugin.
1030 * gobject.def: Update.
1032 Sun Nov 5 05:22:55 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1035 fixed a bag full of subtle bugs of immensive screw-up potential in
1036 handlers_find(), luckily no one found out about them yet ;)
1037 fixed signal_handlers_foreach_matched_R() so it operates on an
1038 initial handler list snapshot provided by handlers_find() to work
1039 around general reentrancy problems and to avoid multiple callback()
1040 invocations on the same handlers.
1041 this code is now officially 80% bug free (10% remaining for interface
1042 types, and 10% remaining for destroyed signals ;)
1044 Sat Nov 4 02:01:33 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1046 * gsignal.c (_g_signals_destroy): valid signal nodes start out at 1.
1048 * gtypeplugin.[hc]: new files holding a GTypePlugin interface
1049 implementation that provides the API required by GType to deal with
1050 dynamically loadable types.
1052 * gtype.[hc]: displace any GTypePlugin business to gtypeplugin.h.
1054 Fri Nov 3 07:35:00 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1056 * gsignal.[hc]: prefix internal functions with '_'. renamed
1057 g_signal_connect_closure() to g_signal_connect_closure_by_id().
1058 added g_signal_parse_name() to retrive signal_id and detail quark
1059 from a signal name (internal).
1061 Wed Nov 1 03:36:54 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1063 * gobject.c (g_object_base_class_finalize): destroy all signals that
1064 the finalized obejct type introduced.
1066 * gsignal.c (g_signals_destroy): don't require itype to have
1069 * gobject.c (g_object_do_finalize): make sure all signal handlers
1073 (g_signal_handler_find): only match on non-0 masks.
1074 (g_signal_handlers_block_matched):
1075 (g_signal_handlers_unblock_matched):
1076 (g_signal_handlers_disconnect_matched): new functions to block/unblock
1077 or disconnect handlers in groups.
1079 2000-10-30 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
1081 * gvalue.c (exchange_entries_equal), gparam.c (param_spec_equals):
1082 made both functions return gboolean just for the little extra
1083 standard conformance now that GEqualFunc is introduced.
1085 Mon Oct 30 05:52:45 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1087 * gsignal.c (g_signal_list_ids): get rid of inline documentation owen
1088 added, the doc system would ignore it anyways (for some reason not
1091 Mon Oct 30 03:00:07 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1093 * gsignal.[hc] (g_signal_list_ids): renamed owen's g_type_signals(),
1094 added required mutex locks.
1096 Sun Oct 29 02:31:03 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
1098 * gsignal.c (g_type_signals): Fix problem where signals
1099 with "_" in them appeared twice in the result array.
1101 Sun Oct 29 01:58:44 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
1103 * gsignal.h: Add g_type_signals() - a function to list
1104 all signals for a given type.
1106 Sat Oct 28 00:28:09 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1108 * gclosure.c (g_closure_add_marshal_guards): fixed notifier position
1109 for post_marshal guard which was off at 0.
1111 Fri Oct 27 21:49:31 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1113 * gobject.[hc]: doh, fix argument order in for
1114 g_cclosure_new_object_swap and g_cclosure_new_object.
1116 2000-10-28 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
1118 * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in: Make glib-genmarshal.exe.
1120 * glib-genmarshal.c: Conditionalise include of unistd.h.
1121 Include <io.h> on Win32.
1123 * gobject.def: Add some missing entry points.
1125 Fri Oct 27 16:33:41 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1127 * gsignal.[hc]: publically define GSignalInvocationHint structure
1128 that gets passed in to closure invocations. added signal details.
1129 renamed GSignalType to GSignalFlags to comply with conventions.
1130 quite some cleanups and minor fixes. avoid uneccessary handler list
1131 walks upon invokation of after handlers. relookup handler list for
1132 restarted emissions. preliminary abort normal handler invokation if
1133 after handler is encountered.
1135 * glib-genmarshal.c:
1136 * gclosure.[hc]: moved invocation_hint to the end of the
1137 g_closure_invoke() arguments as sugegsted by kenelson.
1138 also made it a gpointer to be more generic. the invocation_hint
1139 is a caller specific thing that can be used to pass additional
1140 data in to closure invocations as documented with the caller
1141 invoking the closure.
1143 Fri Oct 27 05:35:14 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1145 * gobject.c (g_object_watch_closure): fixed realloc bug, reported
1148 * gsignal.c (g_signal_newv): fixed deadlock scenarion where
1149 g_signal_lookup() would be called with the signal lock being
1150 held. reported by james henstridge.
1152 * gclosure.c (g_closure_set_meta_marshal): fixed memcpy/overwrite bug
1155 2000-10-26 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
1157 * gbsearcharray.c (bsearch_array_insert): Fix gccisms (pointer
1158 arithmetic on void pointer, label without statement following.
1160 * gtype.c (type_node_fundamental_info): Don't apply unary minus to
1161 result of sizeof operator, it can be unsigned. Cast first to
1164 * gobject.def: Add new functions.
1166 * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in: Add new objects.
1168 2000-10-26 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
1170 * Makefile.am: Remove empty SUBDIRS line _again_, as that _still_
1171 prevents 'make dist' from working.
1173 Wed Oct 25 19:11:03 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
1175 * gbsearcharray.h (g_bsearch_array_get_nth): Don't use implicit
1176 casts from void * since this will get included from C++ too
1179 Thu Oct 26 00:30:27 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1181 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: added g_value_set_static_string().
1183 * gboxed.[hc]: const corrections. added g_value_set_static_boxed().
1185 Wed Oct 25 20:27:02 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1187 * gtype.c (g_type_free_instance): for the moment, freeing object
1188 structures will fill their memory portion with 0xAA. there's a
1189 FIXME there, remove this line at a later point.
1191 Tue Oct 24 23:10:26 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1193 * glib-genmarshal.1:
1194 * glib-genmarshal.c: added publically installed marshaller generator.
1196 * gtype.h: added G_TYPE_INSTANCE_GET_INTERFACE() to retrive a certain
1197 interface VTable from instances.
1199 Mon Oct 23 08:28:15 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1201 * gobject.[hc]: new functions for closure maintenance:
1202 (g_object_watch_closure): maintain validity of the object and
1203 the closure for objects that are used as data part of a closure.
1204 (g_cclosure_new_object): convenience function to create C closures
1205 that have an object as data argument.
1206 (g_closure_new_object): convenience function to create closures
1207 that have an object as data argument.
1209 * gclosure.[hc]: implementation of GClosure mechanism.
1210 a closure is basically an encapsulation of a callback function
1211 and its environment. ideally, most places supporting callback
1212 functions will simply take a GClosure* pointer and thus unify
1213 callback environments wrg destroy notification etc.
1214 GClosure provides destroy notifiers for arbitrary data pointers,
1215 reference counting, invalidation notification (it can be invalidated
1216 which is merely a deactivate state) and a marshallinbg abstraction.
1217 GCClosure is also provided in these files, they present a specialized
1218 GClosure implementation for C language callbacks.
1220 * genum.c: macro cleanups.
1222 * gboxed.[hc]: new files, for boxed type abstraction.
1223 (g_boxed_copy): copy a boxed structure
1224 (g_boxed_free): free a boxed structure
1225 (g_value_set_boxed):
1226 (g_value_get_boxed): standard GValue functions for boxed types
1227 (g_boxed_type_register_static): convenience function for easy
1228 introduction of new G_TYPE_BOXED derivatives.
1230 * gparam.[hc]: introduced g_param_type_register_static(), a short hand
1231 for creation of new GParamSpec derived types.
1233 * gtype.[hc]: many fixes, introduced ability to flag individual
1234 type nodes as ABSTRACT upon registration, added value_peek_pointer()
1235 to the value table to peek at GValue contents as a pointer for types
1236 that support this. fixed up GValue checks.
1238 * gvalue.[hc]: added g_value_fits_pointer() and g_value_get_as_pointer()
1239 to peek at the value contents as pointer.
1241 * *.[hc]: adaptions to type macro fixes and changes in the type
1244 * many const corrections over the place.
1246 Sat Oct 21 02:49:56 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1248 * gtype.c (g_type_conforms_to): this function basically behaves like
1249 and is_a check, except that it _additionally_ features interfaces
1250 for instantiatable types. enforce this in the second branch as well
1251 (`type' conforms_to `type') even if `type' is not an interface type.
1253 Fri Oct 20 15:31:04 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1255 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: added G_TYPE_POINTER implementation from jrb.
1259 * gvaluetypes.c: added GTypeValueTable.value_peek_pointer and
1260 suitable implementations of this for G_TYPE_STRING, G_TYPE_OBJECT
1263 Mon Aug 21 04:13:37 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1265 * gbsearcharray.[hc]: long standing needed generic implementation
1266 of a binary searchable, sorted and dynamically sized array.
1268 2000-10-15 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
1270 * Makefile.am (BUILT_EXTRA_DIST): New variable.
1271 (dist-hook): Handle $(BUILT_EXTRA_DIST).
1272 (*): Remove traces of @STRIP_{BEGIN,END}@.
1274 2000-09-29 Martin Baulig <baulig@suse.de>
1276 Several minor ANSI C fixes.
1278 Added missing casts:
1279 * gtype.c (type_class_init):
1280 `(gpointer) bnode->data->class.class_init_base'
1281 in call to g_slist_prepend() and
1282 'GBaseInitFunc class_init_base = (GBaseInitFunc) slist->data'.
1284 * gobject.c: Put text following #endif into comments.
1286 2000-09-25 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
1288 * Makefile.am: Remove empty SUBDIRS line, as that prevents make
1291 Sat Sep 9 20:04:13 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
1293 * gobject.c (g_object_last_unref): Move call to
1294 g_type_free_instance() here from g_object_do_finalize,
1295 since g_type_free_instance() can unload the object's
1298 2000-07-27 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
1300 * gobject.c: No, don't mark glib_debug_objects for export here,
1301 it's handled specially in gtktypeutils.c.
1303 * gobject.def: Export g_type_fundamental_last (the function).
1305 2000-07-26 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
1308 * gobject.c: Mark glib_debug_objects for export/import as it is
1311 Sun Jul 23 17:23:35 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1313 * gtype.[hc]: make g_type_fundamental_last() a function, avoiding all
1314 that extern variable clutter and avoiding further problems with thread
1317 2000-07-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
1322 * gtype.c: Shut up Sun's picky compiler.
1324 2000-07-14 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
1326 * gobject.def: Add g_type_get_plugin.
1328 Thu Jul 13 02:07:54 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1330 * gparam.c (g_param_value_defaults): default initialize the temporary
1331 default value, instead of nuking the caller's value contents.
1333 2000-07-11 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
1335 * gtype.c (g_type_get_plugin): Don't return just 0 or 1.
1337 Tue Jul 11 02:48:13 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1339 * gtype.[hc]: removed g_type_is_dynamic() and added g_type_get_plugin().
1341 2000-07-10 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
1343 * gobject-query.c: Include ../config.h for HAVE_UNISTD_H. Use it
1344 to guard inclusion of <unistd.h>.
1346 * gtype.h: Fix copy-paste errors in the ifdefs on how to declare a
1347 variable for export. Call the macro GOBJECT_VAR.
1349 * gtype.c: Declare _g_type_fundamental_last for export here, too.
1350 (type_node_any_new): Use only constant expressions for sizeof
1351 operator (for instance MSVC requires this).
1353 * makefile.mingw.in: Define GOBJECT_COMPILATION.
1355 Sun Jul 9 21:21:46 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
1357 * genums.c: Move string.h include into the .c file
1358 instead of where it was in the .h file by mistake.
1360 Thu Jul 6 15:30:27 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
1362 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): dist fixes.
1364 * gobject.c: Add a global variable glib_debug_objects
1365 (not in header file) to control object tracing.
1367 2000-07-01 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
1369 * gobject.def: Update added and renamed entry points.
1371 * makefile.mingw.in: Add gvaluetypes.o.
1373 Thu Jun 29 16:02:07 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
1375 * gobject.c:include string.h for memset
1376 * genums.h: include string.h for strcpy
1377 * gvalue.c: include string.h for memset, memcpy.
1379 Sat Jun 24 23:03:04 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1381 * gtype.[hc]: provide G_TYPE_CHAR, G_TYPE_UCHAR, G_TYPE_BOOLEAN,
1382 G_TYPE_INT, G_TYPE_UINT, G_TYPE_LONG, G_TYPE_ULONG, G_TYPE_FLOAT,
1383 G_TYPE_DOUBLE and G_TYPE_STRING fundamental types.
1384 added a GTypeValueTable* pointer to GTypeInfo structure for types
1385 to implement GValue handling functions.
1386 GTypeValueTable contains the following members:
1387 value_init(): initialize a GValue structure.
1388 value_free(): free GValue structure contents (optional).
1389 value_copy(): copy one GValue contents to another GValue structure of
1390 collect_type: varargs collection type for the first variable argument
1391 to be collected by collect_value().
1392 collect_value(): variable arguments collection function (optional).
1393 lcopy_type: varargs collection type for the first variable argument
1394 to be location copyied by lcopy_value().
1395 lcopy_value(): variable arguments location copy function (optional).
1396 g_type_value_table_peek(): new function to retrive the GTypeValueTable*
1397 for a type node. ValueTables get inherited from parent types, unless
1398 overridden through the GTypeInfo structure. internally, GTypeValueTable
1399 support means an added overhead of one pointer per static or used
1401 g_type_add_class_cache_func(): provide a cache_func/data pair to be
1402 called prior to a type nodes last_unref() function, this can be used
1403 to prevent premature class destruction. multiple installed cache_func()
1404 will be chained upon last_unref() untill one of them returns TRUE.
1405 the cache_func()s have to check the class id passed in to figure whether
1406 they actually want to cache the class of this type (since all classes
1407 are routed through the cache_func() chain).
1408 g_type_remove_class_cache_func(): remove a previously installed
1409 cache_func/data pair. the cache maintained by this function has to be
1410 clear when calling g_type_remove_class_cache_func() to avoid leaks.
1411 g_type_class_unref_uncached(): class unref function for cache_func()
1412 implementations, unreferences a class omitting the cache chain (and
1413 therefore unref->cache->unref->... loops).
1415 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: provide the value setters/getters for the primitive
1416 fundamental types boolean, char, uchar, int, uint, long, ulong, float,
1419 * gvalue.[hc]: provide G_TYPE_IS_VALUE() in terms of whether a
1420 GTypeValueTable is provided for this type.
1421 removed g_value_init_default(), g_value_validate(), g_value_defaults(),
1422 g_value_set_default() and g_values_cmp() as these are supplied by the
1424 moved g_values_exchange() into the "implementation details" section,
1425 since it just provides the underlying functionality for
1428 * gvaluecollector.h: renamed the varargs value container from
1429 GParamCValue to GTypeCValue as the value collection methods are
1430 supplied by the type system now.
1431 G_PARAM_COLLECT_VALUE() and G_PARAM_LCOPY_VALUE() got renamed to
1432 G_VALUE_COLLECT() and G_VALUE_LCOPY() and operate without a
1433 GParamSpec structure now.
1435 * genums.h: macros cleanups/fixes.
1437 * genum.c: provide G_TYPE_ENUM and G_TYPE_FLAGS type
1438 and assorted g_value_{s|g}et_{enum|flags}() implementations.
1441 provide G_IS_VALUE_OBJECT(), G_TYPE_OBJECT ValueTable methods
1442 and g_value_{s|g}et_object().
1444 * gparam.[hc]: reduced class to value_set_default(),
1445 value_validate() and values_cmp(). also parameters now need to fill
1446 in a GType value_type; field to indicate the GValue type they
1447 are handling. provide g_param_value_set_default(),
1448 g_param_value_defaults(), g_param_value_validate() and
1449 g_param_values_cmp().
1451 * gparamspecs.[hc]: got rid of the g_value_* functions and
1452 the G_IS_VALUE_* macros. adapted param spec implementations
1453 according to the GParamSpecClass changes.
1455 Sat Jun 10 08:38:27 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1457 * gtype.c (type_class_init): fetch the nth iface entry of the
1458 type node in the nth loop iteration, not alwys the first.
1459 bug discovered by Walt Pohl <cher@suitware.com>.
1460 (type_data_finalize_class_ifaces): same here, cut and paste
1463 Wed Jun 7 09:21:05 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
1465 * Makefile.am (INCLUDES): Add top_builddir so glibconfig.h
1466 is found properly when build srcdir != builddir. (Patch from
1469 2000-05-13 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
1473 * gobject.rc.in: New files, for Win32 (mingw) build.
1475 * Makefile.am: Add to EXTRA_DIST. Add rules to produce the
1476 corresponding non-*.in files.
1478 * gtype.h: (Win32:) Mark _g_type_fundamental_last for
1479 export/import from DLL.
1481 Fri May 5 01:15:48 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1483 * gtype.h: add reserved fundamental ids for gtk types (for transition
1484 time). added G_TYPE_FUNDAMENTAL_MAX for gtk.
1486 Mon Apr 17 20:45:50 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1488 * glib-gobject.c (g_object_base_class_finalize): oops, don't unset
1489 n_params prior to destructing them.
1491 Tue Apr 11 04:28:10 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1493 * fixed a couple of bugs in the initial parameter/object
1494 implementations, after getting beast running on GObject and GValue.
1496 Fri Apr 7 04:27:49 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1498 * glib-gobject.[hc]: completed parameter set/get implementations,
1499 along with asyncronous parameter changed notification queue.
1501 Sun Apr 2 04:54:36 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1503 * glib-gobject.[hc]: GObject implementation, that is facilities
1504 for setting/getting quarked data and reference counting.
1506 * glib-gparamspecs.[hc]: first actuall parameter implementations
1507 for GLib, so far we have: char, uchar, bool, int, uint, long,
1508 ulong, enum, flags, float, double, string and object. each of these
1509 GParamSpecs is a new instantiatable type in its own respect,
1510 so the .c file derives 13 new types from G_TYPE_PARAM and
1511 defines over 50 (*2) conversion facilities.
1513 * glib-gvaluecollector.h: generic varargs handling stubs for
1514 GParamSpecs, private header file (does get installed for
1515 inclusion into user code though).
1517 * glib-gvalue.[hc]: GValue functionality implementation.
1519 * glib-gparam.[hc]: basis GParamSpec implementation for
1520 the virtual base type G_TYPE_PARAM.
1522 * glib-genums.[hc]: enum/flags type implementation, based on
1525 * glib-gtype.[hc]: GLib Type System implementation, heavily
1526 based on BSE's dynamic type system.
