1 Tue Sep 18 23:09:02 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
3 * gparam.[hc]: rename *nick and *blurb fields to catch
4 direct accesses in third party code.
5 provide g_param_get_nick(), g_param_get_blurb() and
6 g_param_get_name() accessors.
8 Mon Sep 10 20:31:37 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
10 * gobject.[hc]: removed extraneous GObject* returns from a
11 couple functions that are very unlikely to be used in nested.
12 changed gpointer->GObject* for a couple return values/arguments.
15 Mon Sep 10 19:27:47 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
18 g_type_add_interface*(): implement the ability to add an interface to
19 a type whose parents already conform to this interface.
20 such "overriding" interfaces, when initialized, are not just initialized
21 with 0, but with a copy of the interface they override.
22 g_type_interface_peek_parent(): new function, return the interface
23 that this interface "overrides", if any.
25 * testgruntime.c: test new interface stuff.
27 2001-09-10 Alex Larsson <alexl@redhat.com>
29 * gobject/gboxed.[ch]:
30 * gobject/gsourceclosure.c:
31 Removed is_refcounted and GBoxedInitFunc from
32 g_boxed_type_register_static().
34 Sat Sep 8 14:13:57 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
36 * gobject/Makefile.am: Move gbsearcharray.[ch] to glib
37 as a private ininstalled header.
39 Tue Sep 4 22:24:48 2001 Matthias Clasen <matthiasc@poet.de>
41 * gobject.c (g_object_base_class_finalize): typo fix.
43 Tue Sep 4 01:49:18 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
45 * gsourceclosure.c: make closure_callback_funcs static,
46 added some g_return_if_fail() statements.
48 Mon Aug 27 14:55:27 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
50 * gsourceclosure.[ch] (g_source_set_closure): Implement.
52 * gsourceclosure.[ch]: Add GType's for GIOChannel, GIOCondition.
54 2001-08-17 James Henstridge <james@daa.com.au>
56 * gobject.c (WeakRefStack): add an object member to the structure.
57 (weak_refs_notify): pass wstack->object as extra argument to
59 (g_object_weak_ref): set wstack->object when initialising
62 * gobject.h (GWeakNotify): add second argument to prototype which
63 gives the pointer to where the object that is being disposed of
66 Wed Jul 18 19:42:31 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
68 * gtype.h: if __GNUC__ is defined, inline a test for an exact type
69 match for instances and classes in G_TYPE_CHECK_INSTANCE_TYPE() and
70 G_TYPE_CHECK_CLASS_TYPE() before calling g_type_instance_is_a().
72 Sun Aug 12 02:07:10 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
74 * gvaluearray.[hc]: fix preallocation logic, support DISABLE_MEM_POOLS
75 properly, group value allocations.
76 (g_value_array_new): fix semantic of n_prealloced argument, so it's
77 really just about preallocation space.
79 2001-07-23 Padraig O'Briain <Padraig.Obriain@Sun.COM>
81 * gobject/gobjectnotifyqueue.c: fix unconditional check of
82 first GParamSpec in g_object_notify_queue_thaw(); to prevent
83 property notification being lost.
85 2001-08-06 Sven Neumann <sven@gimp.org>
88 added new functions g_object_[add|remove]_weak_pointer().
90 2001-08-01 Sven Neumann <sven@gimp.org>
92 * gsignal.h: added convenience macro g_signal_connect_after().
94 2001-07-29 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>
96 * gobject.def : updated externals
98 2001-07-20 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>
100 * gobject.def : updated externals
102 * makefile.msc.in : reflect glib move
104 Tue Jul 10 18:50:16 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
106 * gsignal.h (struct _GSignalQuery): fix misplaced comment.
108 Mon Jul 2 07:17:47 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
110 * gobject.c (g_object_weak_ref):
111 (g_object_watch_closure): congrats tim, introducing of-by-one
112 errors like on my very first day of C programming.
114 Sat Jun 30 11:07:00 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
116 * gobject.[hc]: provide weak_ref/weak_unref functions,
117 invoked from ->dispose. renamed ->shutdown() to ->dispose(),
118 provide "public" API entry here: g_object_run_dispose(), this
119 fucntion should _only_ be called from object system implementations
120 (e.g. gtkobject.c) if at all.
122 * gtypemodule.c (g_type_module_dispose): s/shutdown/dispose/
124 * gsignal.h: removed compat aliases.
126 * gobject.c (g_object_connect): support data objects.
128 Sat Jun 30 13:17:12 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
130 * testgruntime.c (test_object_class_init)
131 gobject.c (g_object_do_class_init):
132 g_signal_newc() => g_signal_new().
134 Thu Jun 28 22:49:40 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
136 * gtype.[ch] gobject-query.c testgruntime.c: Remove
137 debug flag argument to g_type_init() and add
138 g_type_init_with_debug_flags().
140 Thu Jun 28 16:42:49 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
142 * gsignal.c (g_signal_lookup):
143 (g_signal_list_ids): give elaborate warnings about invalid types,
144 non-instantiatable types and unloaded types that we can't operate on.
146 * gparam.[hc]: g_param_spec_pool_belongings() ->
147 g_param_spec_pool_list_owned().
149 * gsignal.[hc]: renamed:
150 g_signal_newc -> g_signal_new
151 g_signal_disconnect_by_func -> g_signal_handlers_disconnect_by_func
152 g_signal_block_by_func -> g_signal_handlers_block_by_func
153 g_signal_unblock_by_func -> g_signal_handlers_unblock_by_func
154 added GConnectType to simplify (..gboolean swapped, gboolean after)
157 * gobject.[hc]: changed prototypes accordingly.
159 2001-06-22 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>
161 * gobject.def : updated externals
163 * gobjectnotifyqueue.c : include <string.h> for memset ()
165 Thu Jun 21 02:43:10 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
167 * gparamspecs.h: s/long/int/ for default_value in enum and flags
170 Wed Jun 20 03:59:42 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
172 * gtype.[hc]: added debugging variants g_type_name_from_class(),
173 g_type_name_from_instance().
175 Mon Jun 11 17:07:06 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
177 * gboxed.[hc]: remove left-over usages of an anonymous GBoxed typedef.
179 * gobjectnotifyqueue.c: moved property notify queue implementation
180 bits into this function.
182 * gparam.[hc]: added g_param_spec_pool_belongings(), completed
183 g_param_spec_pool_list(). added GParameter for _setv() functions.
185 * gobject.[hc]: use gobjectnotifyqueue.h implementation now.
186 got rid of properties_changed signal.
187 new functions g_object_newv(), g_object_class_list_properties().
188 removed "properties_changed" signal.
190 * gtype.[hc]: added g_type_depth() to figure number of parent
191 types + 1 for a type.
193 * gsignal.h: add g_signal_connect() (as per owen's request) and
194 g_signal_connect_swapped().
196 2001-06-13 Havoc Pennington <hp@redhat.com>
198 * Makefile.am (progs_LDADD): link to ./libgobject-1.3.la
199 since an installed libgobject was somehow being found; think
200 it's a libtool bug, but this workaround should do for now.
202 2001-06-12 Havoc Pennington <hp@redhat.com>
204 * Makefile.am (glib-mkenums): don't put $(srcdir)/glib-mkenums in
205 bin_SCRIPTS, that breaks make install. Instead put 'glib-mkenums'
206 in bin_SCRIPTS and cp it into builddir
208 Thu May 31 17:56:47 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
210 * gobject-query.c: Fix mispelling in help output.
211 (#53952, Skip Montanaro)
213 2001-05-28 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
215 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Really distribute glib-mkenums, now
216 that bin_SCRIPTS doesn't seem to care about doing so anymore.
218 Mon May 28 06:51:24 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
220 * gsignal.c (signal_emit_unlocked_R): fixed bad faux-pass, forgot
221 to release signal lock when restarting emissions.
223 Sun May 27 04:52:28 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
225 * gsignal.[hc] (g_signal_stop_emission_by_name): added variant
226 to stop signal emissions through a detailed_signal string.
228 * gsignal.c (signal_emit_R) (g_signal_emit_valist): account for
229 the fact that g_value_* functions may cause signal emissons by
230 unlocking the global signal system lock around g_value_* functions.
231 (signal_emit_unlocked_R): renamed this from signal_emit_R() to reflect
232 that this functions acquires the lock on its own now.
234 2001-05-24 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>
236 * makefile.msc.in : changed depndencies to build glib-genmarshal
237 first and statically linked with glib, which makes it independent
238 from the installed glib version. Added new object files to build.
240 * gobject.def : updated
242 Thu May 24 08:52:02 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
244 * gobject.[ch] (g_value_set_object): gpointer, not
247 2001-05-22 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
249 * Makefile.am (bin_SCRIPTS): made 'make distcheck' happy.
251 * gobject.def: Removed g_param_spec_stringc.
253 Tue May 22 02:46:13 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
255 * gobject.c (g_value_set_object): make g_value_set_object()
256 take a gpointer v_object so people don't need to G_OBJECT()
257 cast NULL pointers (C code convenience).
259 Mon May 14 01:49:01 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
261 * gsignal.[hc] (g_signal_handler_is_connected): new function
262 to check whether a handler is still connected to an instance
265 Thu May 10 14:00:48 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
267 * gparamspecs.[hc]: removed g_param_spec_stringc() in lack of
268 evidence of public need.
270 * gsignal.h: added g_signal_disconnect_by_func(),
271 g_signal_block_by_func() and g_signal_unblock_by_func() convenience
272 macros as per owen's request.
274 * gtype.c (SIZEOF_FUNDAMENTAL_INFO): align sizeof (GTypeFundamentalInfo)
275 to size of longs and pointers.
277 2001-05-05 James Henstridge <james@daa.com.au>
279 * Makefile.am: glib-mkenums is not a compiled program, so shouldn't
280 be in the bin_PROGRAMS primary. Put it in bin_SCRIPTS instead, and
281 removed the glib_mkenums_SOURCES var.
283 Thu May 3 06:10:23 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
285 * gobject.c (g_object_set_[q]data_full): Make types of ternary
286 operator correspond. (Fixes compilation errors with Sun CC,
289 Mon Apr 30 20:03:56 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
291 * glib-mkenums (usage): removed \v escaping, newer perl versions don't
292 support this, and it'S probably useless anyways.
294 Sat Apr 28 23:39:42 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
296 * gsignal.[hc]: made signal handler and emission hook ids gulongs.
297 (signal_handlers_foreach_matched_R): only invoke callback for handlers
298 that are not disconnected (id>0).
299 (signal_emit_R): prevent invocation of signal handlers during the
300 emission they were connected within.
302 * glib-mkenums: publically installed perl-script to parse C code
303 enums and generate descriptions thereof.
304 * glib-mkenums.1: assorted man page.
306 2001-04-19 Havoc Pennington <hp@redhat.com>
308 * gobject.c (g_object_get_valist): We were returning junk memory
309 here, because we didn't copy the value (G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS
310 passed to G_VALUE_LCOPY) and then we freed the GValue immediately
311 after. Removed G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS from here; need a
312 G_VALUE_STEAL_CONTENTS or the like if we want this optimization.
314 Wed Apr 18 09:46:56 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
316 * gobject.c gsignal.c: Change C++ comments for FIXME's to
317 C comments. (Patch from Andres Salomon)
319 2001-04-14 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>
321 * gobject.def : updated
323 Mon Apr 9 18:56:15 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
325 * gclosure.c (g_closure_invoke): only require marshal/meta_marshal if
326 we're valid (about to actually do marshalling).
328 Tue Apr 3 20:23:24 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
332 Tue Apr 3 14:06:00 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
334 * gparam.[hc]: added g_param_spec_pool_list() to list pspecs per
335 owner_type. the pspecs are not referenced, so the caller is
336 supposed to have some idea about owner_type not randomly
337 nuking his pspec's. if this is going to provide problems in
338 the future, we can either auto-ref the pspecs, or add a
339 _foreach variant, though the latter would have to invoke
340 the callback while pspec's mutex is acquired, so i just
341 went for the _list variant for now.
343 * gclosure.h (G_CALLBACK): made GCallback a void (*) (void) fucntion.
345 Sat Mar 31 23:55:58 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
348 * gparamspecs.[hc]: applied patch from owen to implement
351 Fri Mar 30 07:34:02 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
353 * gtype.c (type_iface_retrive_holder_info_Wm):
354 * gtypeplugin.c (g_type_plugin_complete_interface_info):
355 * gtypemodule.c (g_type_module_complete_interface_info):
356 change order of instance_type and interface_type so they match
357 the g_type_add_interface_*() API.
359 * gsignal.c (g_signal_emit_valist): always assign C return value
360 location, people depending on unaltered return values after emissions
361 that had no handlers to run need to use g_signal_emitv().
363 * gtype.[hc] (g_type_query): new function to allow querying of
364 class and object size (semantics like g_signal_query()).
365 currently the implementation is better held conservative so as to
366 only support types that are classed and static.
368 2001-03-29 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
370 * gobject.def: Updates.
372 Wed Mar 28 17:04:06 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
374 * gobject.c (object_queue_property): only queue readable properties
375 for notification changes.
377 Thu Mar 22 13:36:50 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
379 * gsignal.c (g_signal_newv): catch G_SIGNAL_RUN_FIRST with a return value.
381 2001-03-21 Martin Baulig <baulig@suse.de>
383 * gboxed.[ch] (g_value_dup_boxed): This takes a `const GValue *'
386 2001-03-18 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
388 * gobject.def: Correct some renamed functions.
390 Sat Mar 17 23:18:36 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
392 * gobject.c (g_object_get_property): minor bug-fix.
394 * gbsearcharray.[hc]: provide a macro for static initialization and
395 functions g_bsearch_array_new() and g_bsearch_array_destroy() for
398 * gboxed.c: introduce G_TYPE_GSTRING, boxed type for GString.
400 * gclosure.[hc]: naming corrections.
402 Fri Mar 9 16:42:08 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
404 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: moved g_strdup_value_contents() into this file as
405 a public function (was static in gobject.c before). it's a bit odd
406 to have that function here, especially since it requires extra includes,
407 but then it doesn't very well fit somewhere else either.
409 * gparamspecs.c: added default/max/min checks to param spec creation
412 2001-03-10 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
414 * gobject.def: Add a couple of missing entries.
416 * Makefile.am (libgobject_1_3_la_LIBADD): Use only on Win32.
418 Fri Mar 9 14:57:17 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
420 * testgruntime.c: test program. covers run first/last/cleanup signal
421 handlers, return value accumulator, signal string returns, and
422 interface types in signal arguments.
424 * gtype.c (g_type_value_table_peek): for interface types without
425 value table, try looking up a value table from an instantiatable
426 prerequisite type (this is safe as an interface may only have
427 one instantiatable prerequisiste).
428 (type_check_is_value_type_U): same here.
430 * gsignal.c (g_signal_newv): assert that return types never have
431 G_SIGNAL_TYPE_STATIC_SCOPE set.
432 (g_signal_newc): only create class closure if the class_offset is not
435 Fri Mar 9 10:14:00 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
437 * gparamspecs.c (g_param_spec_object): use g_type_is_a() to check
438 for object_type being a G_TYPE_OBJECT, not G_TYPE_IS_OBJECT(), since
439 that wouldn't allow interface types.
441 * gtype.c (g_type_interface_add_prerequisite): arg, fixed small cnp bug
442 with bad implications and an off-by-one error.
444 Thu Mar 8 16:34:22 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
446 * gvaluetransform.c: Include <string.h> for memcpy.
448 * gvaluetransform.c (DEFINE_SPRINTF): Remove unnecessary
449 and ANSI-illegal ## token pasting.
451 Thu Mar 8 18:11:52 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
453 * gsignal.c: eek, fixed old hook detail storage code.
455 Thu Mar 8 16:35:48 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
457 * gparamspecs.[hc]: s/g_param_spec_string_c/g_param_spec_stringc/.
459 * gsignal.[hc]: fixed accumulator invocation, implemented emission
460 hooks. and no, neither of these callbacks are called via a closure,
461 language bindings can wrap the accumulator and emission hook
462 interface, they already get parameters marshalled into a GValue array.
463 (g_signal_connect): removed this function as its C specific, doesn't
464 cover the swapped argument, is too close to its broken original
465 gtk_signal_connect() and creates demand for _swapped, _after and
466 _swapped_after variants <brrr>.
467 (g_signal_connectc): convenience macro to connect a C handler
468 func with data, like the old g_signal_connect() plus swapped
472 * gboxed.c: added G_TYPE_VALUE boxed type.
474 Wed Mar 7 19:02:51 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
476 * gtype.c (type_node_add_iface_entry_W): catch when adding an interface
477 to an ancestor of a child that already conforms to this interface.
478 currently we spew a warning here, should we be silent?
479 (g_type_interface_add_prerequisite): new function to add a prerequisite
480 type to an interface, that must succeed an instance is_a prerequisite
481 type check before the interface can be added to an instance. the
482 prerequisite types are also suuported in is_a checks of the interface.
483 (g_type_instance_is_a):
484 (g_type_check_instance_cast):
485 (g_type_check_instance): cleanups and optimizations.
487 (g_type_check_class_cast): same, also prevented these from accepting
488 interface types, as class structures don't nest interfaces.
490 2001-03-07 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
492 * Makefile.am: Avoid rebuilding everything everytime.
494 Wed Mar 7 09:36:33 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
496 * gboxed.[hc]: changed prototype of g_boxed_type_register_static()
497 to contain an optional init function and a hint at whether the
498 boxed structure uses ref counting internally.
499 added g_value_set_boxed_take_ownership().
500 made G_TYPE_BOXED an abstract value type.
502 * genums.[hc]: made G_TYPE_ENUM and G_TYPE_FLAGS abstract value
505 * glib-genmarshal.c: argument type changes, preparation for third-party
508 * gobject.[hc]: cleaned up get/set property code.
509 added g_strdup_value_contents() to improve warnings.
511 * gparam.[hc]: added g_param_value_convert(), taking over responsibility
512 of the old g_value_convert(). added G_PARAM_LAX_VALIDATION flag so
513 validation alterations may be valid a part of the property setting
516 * gparamspecs.[hc]: made value comparisons stable (for sort applications).
517 added GParamSpecValueArray, a param spec for value arrays and
518 GParamSpecClosure. nuked the value exchange functions and
521 * gtype.[hc]: catch unintialized usages of the type system with
522 g_return_val_if_uninitialized(). introduced G_TYPE_FLAG_VALUE_ABSTRACT
523 to flag types that introduce a value table, but can't be used for
524 g_value_init(). cleaned up reserved type ids.
526 * gvalue.[hc]: code cleanups and saner checking.
527 nuked the value exchange API. implemented value transformations, we
528 can't really "convert" values, rather transforms are an anylogy to
529 C casts, real conversions need a param spec for validation, which is
530 why g_param_value_convert() does real conversions now.
532 * gvaluearray.[hc]: new files that implement a GValueArray, a struct
533 that can hold inhomogeneous arrays of value (to that extend that it
534 also allowes undefined values, i.e. G_VALUE_TYPE(value)==0).
535 this is exposed to the type system as a boxed type.
537 * gvaluetransform.c: new file implementing most of the former value
538 exchange functions as single-sided transformations.
540 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: nuked G_TYPE_CCALLBACK, added
541 g_value_set_string_take_ownership().
543 * *.h: s/G_IS_VALUE_/G_VALUE_HOLDS_/.
545 * *.[hc]: many fixes and cleanups.
547 * many warning improvements.
549 Tue Feb 27 18:35:15 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
551 * gobject.c (g_object_get_valist): urg, pass G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS
552 into G_VALUE_LCOPY(), this needs proper documenting.
554 * gparam.c: fixed G_PARAM_USER_MASK.
556 * gtype.c (type_data_make_W):
557 (type_data_last_unref_Wm): fixed invalid memory freeing.
559 * gobject.c (g_object_last_unref): destroy signal handlers associated
560 with object, right before finalization.
562 * gsignal.c (g_signal_parse_name): catch destroyed nodes or signals
563 that don't actually support details.
565 * gobject.[hc]: got rid of property trailers. nuked GObject
566 properties "data" and the "signal" variants.
567 (g_object_connect): new convenience function to do multiple
568 signal connections at once.
569 (g_object_disconnect): likewise, for disconnections.
571 * gparam.[hc] (g_param_spec_pool_lookup): took out trailer support.
573 * gvalue.[hc]: marked g_value_fits_pointer() and g_value_peek_pointer()
574 as private (the latter got renamed from g_value_get_as_pointer()).
576 2001-02-21 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
578 * *.h: Use G_BEGIN_DECLS and G_END_DECLS.
580 * Makefile.am: Use libglib-1.3.la from top_builddir. Invoke
581 libtool with -no-undefined for Win32 and Cygwin.
583 Wed Feb 21 18:31:46 2001 Jonathan Blandford <jrb@redhat.com>
585 * gsignal.h (g_signal_connect): Add g_signal_connect define to
586 make porting from gtk_signal_connect easy.
588 * gsignal.c (g_signal_emit_valist): Use G_TYPE_FROM_INSTANCE
589 (instance) instead of node->itype when initting the value.
591 2001-02-17 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>
593 Applied patch from Soeren Sandmann:
595 * gvaluetypes.c (g_value_get_string): G_CONST_RETURN
597 * gtype.c (g_type_name): G_CONST_RETURN
599 * gsignal.c (g_signal_name): G_CONST_RETURN
601 * gobject-query.c (main): const fix
603 Sat Feb 17 07:58:46 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
605 * genums.h (G_TYPE_IS_FLAGS): patch from sven to fixup
606 G_ENUM_CLASS_TYPE() macro.
608 Sat Feb 17 04:55:35 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
610 * gtype.[hc]: changed collect_format, collect_value() and lcopy_format,
611 lcopy_value() in the GTypeValueTable. the collect functions are now
612 called only once per value, collect_format/lcopy_format are strings
613 that enlist all necessary GTypeCValues to be varargs-collected.
615 * gvalue.h: ranamed STATIC_TAG to G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS to indicate that
616 a value shouldn't copy its contents.
618 * gvaluecollector.h: changed G_VALUE_COLLECT() and G_VALUE_LCOPY()
619 macros to carry an additional argument (flags) that can be used
620 to pass G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS along to the collection functions.
622 * *.c: adapted collect_value() and lcopy_value() functions to the new
623 prototypes, support G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS where apropriate.
625 * gsignal.[hc]: introduced a G_SIGNAL_TYPE_STATIC_SCOPE flag that can
626 be passed along (ORed) with the parameter types, indicating that the
627 emission arguments are to be considered static for the scope of the
628 emission. should be used with care and only if the caller knows that
629 a parameter cannot be destroyed/freed from signal handlers connected
632 Fri Feb 16 07:10:44 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
636 (g_closure_sink): make closure sinking explicit.
639 (g_signal_connect_data):
640 (g_signal_connect_closure):
641 (g_signal_connect_closure_by_id):
642 (g_signal_newv): perform explicit closure sinking.
644 Thu Feb 8 00:31:45 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
646 * gtype.h: added G_TYPE_DEBUG_NONE for/from Eric Lemings ;)
648 2001-02-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
650 * gobject.def: Remove glib_debug_objects.
652 Sun Feb 4 07:30:53 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
654 * gtype.[hc]: changed g_type_init() to take debugging flags
655 initially, a combination of G_TYPE_DEBUG_OBJECTS and
656 G_TYPE_DEBUG_SIGNALS. using the G_TYPE_ prefix is a bit odd
657 here, but basically g_type_int() serves as initialization
658 fucntion for all of GType, GObject, GSignal, so what the heck.
660 * gobject.c: special case debugging code properly.
661 changed glib_trap_object_ref to g_trap_object_ref.
663 * gsignal.c: add signal emission debugging abilities, along with
664 a new trap object g_trap_instance_signals.
666 2001-02-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
668 * Makefile.am (progs_LDADD): Change order of libs to libgobject
669 first, then libglib. Needed for cygwin, says jbdoll@kepri.re.kr.
671 Wed Jan 31 06:19:49 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
673 * gparam.h: gtk-doc sucks for not dealing with #define inside enums.
675 * gtype.[hc]: added G_TYPE_FLAG_RESERVED_ID_BIT, a bit in the type
676 number that's supposed to be left untouched (preserved mainly
677 for the signal code).
679 * *.c: added thread safety code, based on an old patch from sebastian.
680 the remaining thread safety issues are now datalists on pspecs (to be
681 solved im gdataset.c) and gvalue.c where locking concerns value exchange
682 functionality only, and that's soon to be revised.
684 2001-01-27 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
686 * makefile.msc.in: Don't try to compile gmarshal.c on its own.
688 2001-01-24 <alexl@redhat.com>
690 * gclosure.c (g_closure_unref):
691 Don't leak closure->notifiers.
693 2001-01-05 Havoc Pennington <hp@redhat.com>
695 * gparamspecs.c (g_param_spec_enum): set the value_type in the
696 param spec; closes bug 40210
697 (g_param_spec_flags): ditto for flags
699 2001-01-03 Alexander Larsson <alexl@redhat.com>
702 Move glib_debug_objects out of the G_ENABLE_DEBUG #ifdef.
704 Thu Dec 28 11:36:44 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
706 * gbsearcharray.c (upper_power2): disable G_BSEARCH_ALIGN_POWER2
707 fucntionality if DISABLE_MEM_POOLS is defined.
709 * gtype.c: honour DISABLE_MEM_POOLS.
711 * gsignal.c (g_signal_init): flag signal key bsearch array with
712 G_BSEARCH_ALIGN_POWER2 to avoid excessive growth time. honour
715 * gparam.h: added G_PARAM_READWRITE alias for (G_PARAM_READABLE |
718 2000-12-15 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
720 * gobject.def: Update.
722 2000-12-15 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>
724 * gobject.c (g_object_do_class_init): use g_signal_newc
726 * gsignal.c (g_signal_newc): convenience function for signals
728 (g_signal_new_valist): added
729 (g_signal_new): removed
731 Fri Dec 15 04:40:23 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
733 * gparam.[hc]: add an instance member value_type so the default
734 value of the pspec class can be overridden.
736 2000-12-14 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
738 * makefile.mingw.in: Update, include parts from Makefile.am to
739 build gmarshal.[ch]. Some day, we won't need these separate
740 makefiles for Win32 compilation. I hope.
742 * makefile.msc.in: Update. No use trying to build gmarshal.[ch]
743 here, it would require Unixish tools. MSVC users building from CVS
744 sources are out of luck.
746 * gobject.def: Update.
748 Wed Dec 13 09:31:26 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
750 * gparamspecs.[hc]: add G_TYPE_PARAM_BOXED implementation.
752 * gobject.[hc]: minor fixes.
754 Tue Dec 12 23:38:02 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
756 * Makefile.am: _never_ touch oldest-source-stamp.
758 * gobject.[hc]: construct property handling fixes/improvements.
759 fixed trailer handling in get/set property.
761 * gparam.[hc]: implement param spec pool, got rid of param spec
762 hashtable. the most prominent change is that e deal with type
765 2000-12-12 Elliot Lee <sopwith@redhat.com>
768 . You have to 'touch oldest-source-stamp' if you want to avoid having
769 the Makefile constantly rebuild itself.
770 . Fix marshaller generation rules to work with srcdir != builddir
771 (there were issues with trying to run "./glib-genmarshal", etc.)
773 Mon Dec 11 04:44:11 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
775 * gboxed.c: fixed dealing with collection/lcopy of NULL values.
777 * gclosure.h: removed insane ramblings, added G_CALLBACK() a casting
780 * Makefile.am: cleanups, marshaller generation rules.
782 * gmarshal.[hc]: new files with GRuntime standard marshallers.
784 * glib-genmarshal.c: fix log domain, support gruntime standard
785 marshallers, suport G_TYPE_PARAM, come with extern "C" and
788 * glib-genmarshal.1: reflect glib-genmarshal.c updates.
790 * gobject.[hc]: implement object constructor. rework parameter
791 changed notification queueing, we support queue freezes now and
792 don't dispatch from an idle handler anymore.
793 parameter->property rename hassle.
794 implemented ::properties_changed and ::notify::* signals for
795 property change notification (the later supports property names
796 as details). added signal connection and named data properties.
797 (g_signal_connect_object): new function to setup while_alive
799 (g_object_class_install_property): sink properties now, since they
800 are initially floating.
801 (g_object_steal_data):
802 (g_object_set_data_full):
804 (g_object_get_data): set/get data by using g_datalist_*() functions
806 (g_object_queue_param_changed): nuked.
807 (g_object_freeze_notify): start queueing of property changes (freeze/
809 (g_object_notify): announce changes of a certain property directly.
810 (g_object_thaw_notify): process queue of property changes, therefore
811 emitting GObject::notify::detail with detail being the changed
813 (G_OBJECT_WARN_INVALID_PROPERTY_ID): saner macro variant of former
814 G_WARN_INVALID_PARAM_ID().
816 * gparam.[hc]: param specs are now initially floating and need to be
817 sunken with g_param_spec_sink(), support G_TYPE_PARAM values.
818 added G_PARAM_CONSTRUCT and G_PARAM_CONSTRUCT_ONLY parameter flags,
819 required by GObjectClass.constructor().
821 * gparamspecs.[hc]: added GParamSpecParam, GParamSpecPointer and
822 GParamSpecCCallback, param specs for G_TYPE_PARAM, G_TYPE_POINTER
823 and G_TYPE_CCALLBACK respectively.
825 * gsignal.[hc]: cleanups.
826 (signal_id_lookup): after walking the anchestry, try interfaces as well.
827 (g_signal_new): new function to create signals from varargs type list.
828 (g_signal_connect_closure): closure connection variant that works from
830 (g_signal_connect_data): c handler connection variant that works from
832 (g_signal_emit_valist): emit signal for an instance with paraneters
833 collected from a va_list.
834 (g_signal_emit): emit signal, taking parameters from varargs list.
835 (g_signal_emit_by_name): same as g_signal_emit, working from
837 (signal_emit_R): return whether return_value needs to be altered.
839 * gtype.[hc]: set log-domain to GRuntime, i'm slowly getting to all
840 the points that need to reflect the upcoming rename.
841 melt g_type_conforms_to() functionality into g_type_is_a(), as that
842 is what we really want (liskov substitution principle).
843 assorted changes to other files due to conforms_to->is_a.
845 * gvalue.[hc]: implemented g_value_set_instance() that sets a value
846 from an instantiatable type via the value_table's collect_value()
847 function (based on an idea from James Henstridge <james@daa.com.au>).
850 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: implement G_TYPE_CCALLBACK and G_TYPE_PARAM.
852 Wed Nov 29 13:30:05 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
854 * gsignal.c (handlers_find): fix elliots "logic fix" that dereferences
855 NULL nodes if C handlers are searched for specific signals.
857 2000-11-28 Elliot Lee <sopwith@redhat.com>
859 * gsignal.c: Fix warnings about possible use of uninitialized
860 variables, and fix logic that would leave 'node' unset in cases
861 that it might be used in.
863 * glib-genmarshal.c: Fix warning about printf format.
865 2000-11-28 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
867 * gboxed.c: Include <string.h> for memset ().
869 2000-11-22 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
871 * gobject.def: Update.
873 2000-11-20 Havoc Pennington <hp@redhat.com>
875 * gobject.c (g_object_get_data)
877 (g_object_set_data_full)
878 (g_object_steal_data): More convenient data-setting functions
880 Wed Nov 15 20:58:05 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
882 * gtypemodule.c (g_type_module_use): If loading the
883 module fails, don't increment the use count.
885 Thu Nov 9 01:49:43 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
887 * gobject.h (G_WARN_INVALID_PARAM_ID): doh,
888 s/BSE_OBJECT_TYPE_NAME/G_OBJECT_TYPE_NAME/; reported by Maas-Maarten
889 Zeeman <maas@wanadoo.nl>.
891 Mon Nov 13 00:48:39 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
893 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add glib-genmarshal.1
895 2000-11-11 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
897 * gtypemodule.c: Include stdlib.h for exit().
899 * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in (gobject_OBJECTS): Add gtypemodule.
901 * gobject.def: Add missing functions.
903 Sun Nov 5 13:21:28 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
905 * Makefile.am gtypemodule.[ch]: New basic implementation of
906 GTypePlugin interface as a GObject. Dynamically loaded modules can
907 register any number of types and interface on the module.
909 Sun Nov 5 10:25:40 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
911 * gsignal.c (handlers_find): When appending handlers and
912 not matching on signal_id, use hlist->signal_id instead of
913 signal_id. Having the correct signal_id when unreffing
914 the handlers makes things work a lot better.
916 2000-11-05 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
918 * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in (gobject_OBJECTS): Add gtypeplugin.
920 * gobject.def: Update.
922 Sun Nov 5 05:22:55 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
925 fixed a bag full of subtle bugs of immensive screw-up potential in
926 handlers_find(), luckily no one found out about them yet ;)
927 fixed signal_handlers_foreach_matched_R() so it operates on an
928 initial handler list snapshot provided by handlers_find() to work
929 around general reentrancy problems and to avoid multiple callback()
930 invocations on the same handlers.
931 this code is now officially 80% bug free (10% remaining for interface
932 types, and 10% remaining for destroyed signals ;)
934 Sat Nov 4 02:01:33 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
936 * gsignal.c (_g_signals_destroy): valid signal nodes start out at 1.
938 * gtypeplugin.[hc]: new files holding a GTypePlugin interface
939 implementation that provides the API required by GType to deal with
940 dynamically loadable types.
942 * gtype.[hc]: displace any GTypePlugin business to gtypeplugin.h.
944 Fri Nov 3 07:35:00 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
946 * gsignal.[hc]: prefix internal functions with '_'. renamed
947 g_signal_connect_closure() to g_signal_connect_closure_by_id().
948 added g_signal_parse_name() to retrive signal_id and detail quark
949 from a signal name (internal).
951 Wed Nov 1 03:36:54 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
953 * gobject.c (g_object_base_class_finalize): destroy all signals that
954 the finalized obejct type introduced.
956 * gsignal.c (g_signals_destroy): don't require itype to have
959 * gobject.c (g_object_do_finalize): make sure all signal handlers
963 (g_signal_handler_find): only match on non-0 masks.
964 (g_signal_handlers_block_matched):
965 (g_signal_handlers_unblock_matched):
966 (g_signal_handlers_disconnect_matched): new functions to block/unblock
967 or disconnect handlers in groups.
969 2000-10-30 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
971 * gvalue.c (exchange_entries_equal), gparam.c (param_spec_equals):
972 made both functions return gboolean just for the little extra
973 standard conformance now that GEqualFunc is introduced.
975 Mon Oct 30 05:52:45 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
977 * gsignal.c (g_signal_list_ids): get rid of inline documentation owen
978 added, the doc system would ignore it anyways (for some reason not
981 Mon Oct 30 03:00:07 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
983 * gsignal.[hc] (g_signal_list_ids): renamed owen's g_type_signals(),
984 added required mutex locks.
986 Sun Oct 29 02:31:03 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
988 * gsignal.c (g_type_signals): Fix problem where signals
989 with "_" in them appeared twice in the result array.
991 Sun Oct 29 01:58:44 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
993 * gsignal.h: Add g_type_signals() - a function to list
994 all signals for a given type.
996 Sat Oct 28 00:28:09 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
998 * gclosure.c (g_closure_add_marshal_guards): fixed notifier position
999 for post_marshal guard which was off at 0.
1001 Fri Oct 27 21:49:31 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1003 * gobject.[hc]: doh, fix argument order in for
1004 g_cclosure_new_object_swap and g_cclosure_new_object.
1006 2000-10-28 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
1008 * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in: Make glib-genmarshal.exe.
1010 * glib-genmarshal.c: Conditionalise include of unistd.h.
1011 Include <io.h> on Win32.
1013 * gobject.def: Add some missing entry points.
1015 Fri Oct 27 16:33:41 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1017 * gsignal.[hc]: publically define GSignalInvocationHint structure
1018 that gets passed in to closure invocations. added signal details.
1019 renamed GSignalType to GSignalFlags to comply with conventions.
1020 quite some cleanups and minor fixes. avoid uneccessary handler list
1021 walks upon invokation of after handlers. relookup handler list for
1022 restarted emissions. preliminary abort normal handler invokation if
1023 after handler is encountered.
1025 * glib-genmarshal.c:
1026 * gclosure.[hc]: moved invocation_hint to the end of the
1027 g_closure_invoke() arguments as sugegsted by kenelson.
1028 also made it a gpointer to be more generic. the invocation_hint
1029 is a caller specific thing that can be used to pass additional
1030 data in to closure invocations as documented with the caller
1031 invoking the closure.
1033 Fri Oct 27 05:35:14 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1035 * gobject.c (g_object_watch_closure): fixed realloc bug, reported
1038 * gsignal.c (g_signal_newv): fixed deadlock scenarion where
1039 g_signal_lookup() would be called with the signal lock being
1040 held. reported by james henstridge.
1042 * gclosure.c (g_closure_set_meta_marshal): fixed memcpy/overwrite bug
1045 2000-10-26 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
1047 * gbsearcharray.c (bsearch_array_insert): Fix gccisms (pointer
1048 arithmetic on void pointer, label without statement following.
1050 * gtype.c (type_node_fundamental_info): Don't apply unary minus to
1051 result of sizeof operator, it can be unsigned. Cast first to
1054 * gobject.def: Add new functions.
1056 * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in: Add new objects.
1058 2000-10-26 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
1060 * Makefile.am: Remove empty SUBDIRS line _again_, as that _still_
1061 prevents 'make dist' from working.
1063 Wed Oct 25 19:11:03 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
1065 * gbsearcharray.h (g_bsearch_array_get_nth): Don't use implicit
1066 casts from void * since this will get included from C++ too
1069 Thu Oct 26 00:30:27 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1071 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: added g_value_set_static_string().
1073 * gboxed.[hc]: const corrections. added g_value_set_static_boxed().
1075 Wed Oct 25 20:27:02 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1077 * gtype.c (g_type_free_instance): for the moment, freeing object
1078 structures will fill their memory portion with 0xAA. there's a
1079 FIXME there, remove this line at a later point.
1081 Tue Oct 24 23:10:26 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1083 * glib-genmarshal.1:
1084 * glib-genmarshal.c: added publically installed marshaller generator.
1086 * gtype.h: added G_TYPE_INSTANCE_GET_INTERFACE() to retrive a certain
1087 interface VTable from instances.
1089 Mon Oct 23 08:28:15 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1091 * gobject.[hc]: new functions for closure maintenance:
1092 (g_object_watch_closure): maintain validity of the object and
1093 the closure for objects that are used as data part of a closure.
1094 (g_cclosure_new_object): convenience function to create C closures
1095 that have an object as data argument.
1096 (g_closure_new_object): convenience function to create closures
1097 that have an object as data argument.
1099 * gclosure.[hc]: implementation of GClosure mechanism.
1100 a closure is basically an encapsulation of a callback function
1101 and its environment. ideally, most places supporting callback
1102 functions will simply take a GClosure* pointer and thus unify
1103 callback environments wrg destroy notification etc.
1104 GClosure provides destroy notifiers for arbitrary data pointers,
1105 reference counting, invalidation notification (it can be invalidated
1106 which is merely a deactivate state) and a marshallinbg abstraction.
1107 GCClosure is also provided in these files, they present a specialized
1108 GClosure implementation for C language callbacks.
1110 * genum.c: macro cleanups.
1112 * gboxed.[hc]: new files, for boxed type abstraction.
1113 (g_boxed_copy): copy a boxed structure
1114 (g_boxed_free): free a boxed structure
1115 (g_value_set_boxed):
1116 (g_value_get_boxed): standard GValue functions for boxed types
1117 (g_boxed_type_register_static): convenience function for easy
1118 introduction of new G_TYPE_BOXED derivatives.
1120 * gparam.[hc]: introduced g_param_type_register_static(), a short hand
1121 for creation of new GParamSpec derived types.
1123 * gtype.[hc]: many fixes, introduced ability to flag individual
1124 type nodes as ABSTRACT upon registration, added value_peek_pointer()
1125 to the value table to peek at GValue contents as a pointer for types
1126 that support this. fixed up GValue checks.
1128 * gvalue.[hc]: added g_value_fits_pointer() and g_value_get_as_pointer()
1129 to peek at the value contents as pointer.
1131 * *.[hc]: adaptions to type macro fixes and changes in the type
1134 * many const corrections over the place.
1136 Sat Oct 21 02:49:56 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1138 * gtype.c (g_type_conforms_to): this function basically behaves like
1139 and is_a check, except that it _additionally_ features interfaces
1140 for instantiatable types. enforce this in the second branch as well
1141 (`type' conforms_to `type') even if `type' is not an interface type.
1143 Fri Oct 20 15:31:04 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1145 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: added G_TYPE_POINTER implementation from jrb.
1149 * gvaluetypes.c: added GTypeValueTable.value_peek_pointer and
1150 suitable implementations of this for G_TYPE_STRING, G_TYPE_OBJECT
1153 Mon Aug 21 04:13:37 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1155 * gbsearcharray.[hc]: long standing needed generic implementation
1156 of a binary searchable, sorted and dynamically sized array.
1158 2000-10-15 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
1160 * Makefile.am (BUILT_EXTRA_DIST): New variable.
1161 (dist-hook): Handle $(BUILT_EXTRA_DIST).
1162 (*): Remove traces of @STRIP_{BEGIN,END}@.
1164 2000-09-29 Martin Baulig <baulig@suse.de>
1166 Several minor ANSI C fixes.
1168 Added missing casts:
1169 * gtype.c (type_class_init):
1170 `(gpointer) bnode->data->class.class_init_base'
1171 in call to g_slist_prepend() and
1172 'GBaseInitFunc class_init_base = (GBaseInitFunc) slist->data'.
1174 * gobject.c: Put text following #endif into comments.
1176 2000-09-25 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
1178 * Makefile.am: Remove empty SUBDIRS line, as that prevents make
1181 Sat Sep 9 20:04:13 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
1183 * gobject.c (g_object_last_unref): Move call to
1184 g_type_free_instance() here from g_object_do_finalize,
1185 since g_type_free_instance() can unload the object's
1188 2000-07-27 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
1190 * gobject.c: No, don't mark glib_debug_objects for export here,
1191 it's handled specially in gtktypeutils.c.
1193 * gobject.def: Export g_type_fundamental_last (the function).
1195 2000-07-26 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
1198 * gobject.c: Mark glib_debug_objects for export/import as it is
1201 Sun Jul 23 17:23:35 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1203 * gtype.[hc]: make g_type_fundamental_last() a function, avoiding all
1204 that extern variable clutter and avoiding further problems with thread
1207 2000-07-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
1212 * gtype.c: Shut up Sun's picky compiler.
1214 2000-07-14 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
1216 * gobject.def: Add g_type_get_plugin.
1218 Thu Jul 13 02:07:54 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1220 * gparam.c (g_param_value_defaults): default initialize the temporary
1221 default value, instead of nuking the caller's value contents.
1223 2000-07-11 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
1225 * gtype.c (g_type_get_plugin): Don't return just 0 or 1.
1227 Tue Jul 11 02:48:13 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1229 * gtype.[hc]: removed g_type_is_dynamic() and added g_type_get_plugin().
1231 2000-07-10 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
1233 * gobject-query.c: Include ../config.h for HAVE_UNISTD_H. Use it
1234 to guard inclusion of <unistd.h>.
1236 * gtype.h: Fix copy-paste errors in the ifdefs on how to declare a
1237 variable for export. Call the macro GOBJECT_VAR.
1239 * gtype.c: Declare _g_type_fundamental_last for export here, too.
1240 (type_node_any_new): Use only constant expressions for sizeof
1241 operator (for instance MSVC requires this).
1243 * makefile.mingw.in: Define GOBJECT_COMPILATION.
1245 Sun Jul 9 21:21:46 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
1247 * genums.c: Move string.h include into the .c file
1248 instead of where it was in the .h file by mistake.
1250 Thu Jul 6 15:30:27 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
1252 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): dist fixes.
1254 * gobject.c: Add a global variable glib_debug_objects
1255 (not in header file) to control object tracing.
1257 2000-07-01 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
1259 * gobject.def: Update added and renamed entry points.
1261 * makefile.mingw.in: Add gvaluetypes.o.
1263 Thu Jun 29 16:02:07 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
1265 * gobject.c:include string.h for memset
1266 * genums.h: include string.h for strcpy
1267 * gvalue.c: include string.h for memset, memcpy.
1269 Sat Jun 24 23:03:04 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1271 * gtype.[hc]: provide G_TYPE_CHAR, G_TYPE_UCHAR, G_TYPE_BOOLEAN,
1272 G_TYPE_INT, G_TYPE_UINT, G_TYPE_LONG, G_TYPE_ULONG, G_TYPE_FLOAT,
1273 G_TYPE_DOUBLE and G_TYPE_STRING fundamental types.
1274 added a GTypeValueTable* pointer to GTypeInfo structure for types
1275 to implement GValue handling functions.
1276 GTypeValueTable contains the following members:
1277 value_init(): initialize a GValue structure.
1278 value_free(): free GValue structure contents (optional).
1279 value_copy(): copy one GValue contents to another GValue structure of
1280 collect_type: varargs collection type for the first variable argument
1281 to be collected by collect_value().
1282 collect_value(): variable arguments collection function (optional).
1283 lcopy_type: varargs collection type for the first variable argument
1284 to be location copyied by lcopy_value().
1285 lcopy_value(): variable arguments location copy function (optional).
1286 g_type_value_table_peek(): new function to retrive the GTypeValueTable*
1287 for a type node. ValueTables get inherited from parent types, unless
1288 overridden through the GTypeInfo structure. internally, GTypeValueTable
1289 support means an added overhead of one pointer per static or used
1291 g_type_add_class_cache_func(): provide a cache_func/data pair to be
1292 called prior to a type nodes last_unref() function, this can be used
1293 to prevent premature class destruction. multiple installed cache_func()
1294 will be chained upon last_unref() untill one of them returns TRUE.
1295 the cache_func()s have to check the class id passed in to figure whether
1296 they actually want to cache the class of this type (since all classes
1297 are routed through the cache_func() chain).
1298 g_type_remove_class_cache_func(): remove a previously installed
1299 cache_func/data pair. the cache maintained by this function has to be
1300 clear when calling g_type_remove_class_cache_func() to avoid leaks.
1301 g_type_class_unref_uncached(): class unref function for cache_func()
1302 implementations, unreferences a class omitting the cache chain (and
1303 therefore unref->cache->unref->... loops).
1305 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: provide the value setters/getters for the primitive
1306 fundamental types boolean, char, uchar, int, uint, long, ulong, float,
1309 * gvalue.[hc]: provide G_TYPE_IS_VALUE() in terms of whether a
1310 GTypeValueTable is provided for this type.
1311 removed g_value_init_default(), g_value_validate(), g_value_defaults(),
1312 g_value_set_default() and g_values_cmp() as these are supplied by the
1314 moved g_values_exchange() into the "implementation details" section,
1315 since it just provides the underlying functionality for
1318 * gvaluecollector.h: renamed the varargs value container from
1319 GParamCValue to GTypeCValue as the value collection methods are
1320 supplied by the type system now.
1321 G_PARAM_COLLECT_VALUE() and G_PARAM_LCOPY_VALUE() got renamed to
1322 G_VALUE_COLLECT() and G_VALUE_LCOPY() and operate without a
1323 GParamSpec structure now.
1325 * genums.h: macros cleanups/fixes.
1327 * genum.c: provide G_TYPE_ENUM and G_TYPE_FLAGS type
1328 and assorted g_value_{s|g}et_{enum|flags}() implementations.
1331 provide G_IS_VALUE_OBJECT(), G_TYPE_OBJECT ValueTable methods
1332 and g_value_{s|g}et_object().
1334 * gparam.[hc]: reduced class to value_set_default(),
1335 value_validate() and values_cmp(). also parameters now need to fill
1336 in a GType value_type; field to indicate the GValue type they
1337 are handling. provide g_param_value_set_default(),
1338 g_param_value_defaults(), g_param_value_validate() and
1339 g_param_values_cmp().
1341 * gparamspecs.[hc]: got rid of the g_value_* functions and
1342 the G_IS_VALUE_* macros. adapted param spec implementations
1343 according to the GParamSpecClass changes.
1345 Sat Jun 10 08:38:27 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1347 * gtype.c (type_class_init): fetch the nth iface entry of the
1348 type node in the nth loop iteration, not alwys the first.
1349 bug discovered by Walt Pohl <cher@suitware.com>.
1350 (type_data_finalize_class_ifaces): same here, cut and paste
1353 Wed Jun 7 09:21:05 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
1355 * Makefile.am (INCLUDES): Add top_builddir so glibconfig.h
1356 is found properly when build srcdir != builddir. (Patch from
1359 2000-05-13 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
1363 * gobject.rc.in: New files, for Win32 (mingw) build.
1365 * Makefile.am: Add to EXTRA_DIST. Add rules to produce the
1366 corresponding non-*.in files.
1368 * gtype.h: (Win32:) Mark _g_type_fundamental_last for
1369 export/import from DLL.
1371 Fri May 5 01:15:48 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1373 * gtype.h: add reserved fundamental ids for gtk types (for transition
1374 time). added G_TYPE_FUNDAMENTAL_MAX for gtk.
1376 Mon Apr 17 20:45:50 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1378 * glib-gobject.c (g_object_base_class_finalize): oops, don't unset
1379 n_params prior to destructing them.
1381 Tue Apr 11 04:28:10 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1383 * fixed a couple of bugs in the initial parameter/object
1384 implementations, after getting beast running on GObject and GValue.
1386 Fri Apr 7 04:27:49 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1388 * glib-gobject.[hc]: completed parameter set/get implementations,
1389 along with asyncronous parameter changed notification queue.
1391 Sun Apr 2 04:54:36 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
1393 * glib-gobject.[hc]: GObject implementation, that is facilities
1394 for setting/getting quarked data and reference counting.
1396 * glib-gparamspecs.[hc]: first actuall parameter implementations
1397 for GLib, so far we have: char, uchar, bool, int, uint, long,
1398 ulong, enum, flags, float, double, string and object. each of these
1399 GParamSpecs is a new instantiatable type in its own respect,
1400 so the .c file derives 13 new types from G_TYPE_PARAM and
1401 defines over 50 (*2) conversion facilities.
1403 * glib-gvaluecollector.h: generic varargs handling stubs for
1404 GParamSpecs, private header file (does get installed for
1405 inclusion into user code though).
1407 * glib-gvalue.[hc]: GValue functionality implementation.
1409 * glib-gparam.[hc]: basis GParamSpec implementation for
1410 the virtual base type G_TYPE_PARAM.
1412 * glib-genums.[hc]: enum/flags type implementation, based on
1415 * glib-gtype.[hc]: GLib Type System implementation, heavily
1416 based on BSE's dynamic type system.
