3 * gsignal.h (g_signal_connect): Add g_signal_connect define to
4 make porting from gtk_signal_connect easy.
6 2001-02-17 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>
8 Applied patch from Soeren Sandmann:
10 * gvaluetypes.c (g_value_get_string): G_CONST_RETURN
12 * gtype.c (g_type_name): G_CONST_RETURN
14 * gsignal.c (g_signal_name): G_CONST_RETURN
16 * gobject-query.c (main): const fix
18 Sat Feb 17 07:58:46 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
20 * genums.h (G_TYPE_IS_FLAGS): patch from sven to fixup
21 G_ENUM_CLASS_TYPE() macro.
23 Sat Feb 17 04:55:35 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
25 * gtype.[hc]: changed collect_format, collect_value() and lcopy_format,
26 lcopy_value() in the GTypeValueTable. the collect functions are now
27 called only once per value, collect_format/lcopy_format are strings
28 that enlist all necessary GTypeCValues to be varargs-collected.
30 * gvalue.h: ranamed STATIC_TAG to G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS to indicate that
31 a value shouldn't copy its contents.
33 * gvaluecollector.h: changed G_VALUE_COLLECT() and G_VALUE_LCOPY()
34 macros to carry an additional argument (flags) that can be used
35 to pass G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS along to the collection functions.
37 * *.c: adapted collect_value() and lcopy_value() functions to the new
38 prototypes, support G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS where apropriate.
40 * gsignal.[hc]: introduced a G_SIGNAL_TYPE_STATIC_SCOPE flag that can
41 be passed along (ORed) with the parameter types, indicating that the
42 emission arguments are to be considered static for the scope of the
43 emission. should be used with care and only if the caller knows that
44 a parameter cannot be destroyed/freed from signal handlers connected
47 Fri Feb 16 07:10:44 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
51 (g_closure_sink): make closure sinking explicit.
54 (g_signal_connect_data):
55 (g_signal_connect_closure):
56 (g_signal_connect_closure_by_id):
57 (g_signal_newv): perform explicit closure sinking.
59 Thu Feb 8 00:31:45 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>

65 * gobject.def: Remove glib_debug_objects.
67 Sun Feb 4 07:30:53 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
69 * gtype.[hc]: changed g_type_init() to take debugging flags
70 initially, a combination of G_TYPE_DEBUG_OBJECTS and
71 G_TYPE_DEBUG_SIGNALS. using the G_TYPE_ prefix is a bit odd
72 here, but basically g_type_int() serves as initialization
73 fucntion for all of GType, GObject, GSignal, so what the heck.
75 * gobject.c: special case debugging code properly.
76 changed glib_trap_object_ref to g_trap_object_ref.
78 * gsignal.c: add signal emission debugging abilities, along with
79 a new trap object g_trap_instance_signals.
81 2001-02-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
83 * Makefile.am (progs_LDADD): Change order of libs to libgobject
84 first, then libglib. Needed for cygwin, says jbdoll@kepri.re.kr.
86 Wed Jan 31 06:19:49 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
88 * gparam.h: gtk-doc sucks for not dealing with #define inside enums.
90 * gtype.[hc]: added G_TYPE_FLAG_RESERVED_ID_BIT, a bit in the type
91 number that's supposed to be left untouched (preserved mainly
94 * *.c: added thread safety code, based on an old patch from sebastian.
95 the remaining thread safety issues are now datalists on pspecs (to be
96 solved im gdataset.c) and gvalue.c where locking concerns value exchange
97 functionality only, and that's soon to be revised.
99 2001-01-27 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
101 * makefile.msc.in: Don't try to compile gmarshal.c on its own.
103 2001-01-24 <alexl@redhat.com>
105 * gclosure.c (g_closure_unref):
106 Don't leak closure->notifiers.
108 2001-01-05 Havoc Pennington <hp@redhat.com>
110 * gparamspecs.c (g_param_spec_enum): set the value_type in the
111 param spec; closes bug 40210
112 (g_param_spec_flags): ditto for flags
114 2001-01-03 Alexander Larsson <alexl@redhat.com>
117 Move glib_debug_objects out of the G_ENABLE_DEBUG #ifdef.
119 Thu Dec 28 11:36:44 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
121 * gbsearcharray.c (upper_power2): disable G_BSEARCH_ALIGN_POWER2
122 fucntionality if DISABLE_MEM_POOLS is defined.
124 * gtype.c: honour DISABLE_MEM_POOLS.
126 * gsignal.c (g_signal_init): flag signal key bsearch array with
127 G_BSEARCH_ALIGN_POWER2 to avoid excessive growth time. honour
130 * gparam.h: added G_PARAM_READWRITE alias for (G_PARAM_READABLE |
133 2000-12-15 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
135 * gobject.def: Update.
137 2000-12-15 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>
139 * gobject.c (g_object_do_class_init): use g_signal_newc
141 * gsignal.c (g_signal_newc): convenience function for signals
143 (g_signal_new_valist): added
144 (g_signal_new): removed
146 Fri Dec 15 04:40:23 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
148 * gparam.[hc]: add an instance member value_type so the default
149 value of the pspec class can be overridden.
151 2000-12-14 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
153 * makefile.mingw.in: Update, include parts from Makefile.am to
154 build gmarshal.[ch]. Some day, we won't need these separate
155 makefiles for Win32 compilation. I hope.
157 * makefile.msc.in: Update. No use trying to build gmarshal.[ch]
158 here, it would require Unixish tools. MSVC users building from CVS
159 sources are out of luck.
161 * gobject.def: Update.
163 Wed Dec 13 09:31:26 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
165 * gparamspecs.[hc]: add G_TYPE_PARAM_BOXED implementation.

169 Tue Dec 12 23:38:02 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
171 * Makefile.am: _never_ touch oldest-source-stamp.
173 * gobject.[hc]: construct property handling fixes/improvements.
174 fixed trailer handling in get/set property.
176 * gparam.[hc]: implement param spec pool, got rid of param spec
177 hashtable. the most prominent change is that e deal with type
180 2000-12-12 Elliot Lee <sopwith@redhat.com>
183 . You have to 'touch oldest-source-stamp' if you want to avoid having
184 the Makefile constantly rebuild itself.
185 . Fix marshaller generation rules to work with srcdir != builddir
186 (there were issues with trying to run "./glib-genmarshal", etc.)
188 Mon Dec 11 04:44:11 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
190 * gboxed.c: fixed dealing with collection/lcopy of NULL values.
192 * gclosure.h: removed insane ramblings, added G_CALLBACK() a casting
195 * Makefile.am: cleanups, marshaller generation rules.
197 * gmarshal.[hc]: new files with GRuntime standard marshallers.
199 * glib-genmarshal.c: fix log domain, support gruntime standard
200 marshallers, suport G_TYPE_PARAM, come with extern "C" and
203 * glib-genmarshal.1: reflect glib-genmarshal.c updates.
205 * gobject.[hc]: implement object constructor. rework parameter
206 changed notification queueing, we support queue freezes now and
207 don't dispatch from an idle handler anymore.
208 parameter->property rename hassle.
209 implemented ::properties_changed and ::notify::* signals for
210 property change notification (the later supports property names
211 as details). added signal connection and named data properties.
212 (g_signal_connect_object): new function to setup while_alive
214 (g_object_class_install_property): sink properties now, since they
215 are initially floating.
216 (g_object_steal_data):
217 (g_object_set_data_full):
219 (g_object_get_data): set/get data by using g_datalist_*() functions
221 (g_object_queue_param_changed): nuked.
222 (g_object_freeze_notify): start queueing of property changes (freeze/
224 (g_object_notify): announce changes of a certain property directly.
225 (g_object_thaw_notify): process queue of property changes, therefore
226 emitting GObject::notify::detail with detail being the changed
228 (G_OBJECT_WARN_INVALID_PROPERTY_ID): saner macro variant of former
229 G_WARN_INVALID_PARAM_ID().
231 * gparam.[hc]: param specs are now initially floating and need to be
232 sunken with g_param_spec_sink(), support G_TYPE_PARAM values.
233 added G_PARAM_CONSTRUCT and G_PARAM_CONSTRUCT_ONLY parameter flags,
234 required by GObjectClass.constructor().
236 * gparamspecs.[hc]: added GParamSpecParam, GParamSpecPointer and
237 GParamSpecCCallback, param specs for G_TYPE_PARAM, G_TYPE_POINTER
238 and G_TYPE_CCALLBACK respectively.
240 * gsignal.[hc]: cleanups.
241 (signal_id_lookup): after walking the anchestry, try interfaces as well.
242 (g_signal_new): new function to create signals from varargs type list.
243 (g_signal_connect_closure): closure connection variant that works from
245 (g_signal_connect_data): c handler connection variant that works from
247 (g_signal_emit_valist): emit signal for an instance with paraneters
248 collected from a va_list.
249 (g_signal_emit): emit signal, taking parameters from varargs list.
250 (g_signal_emit_by_name): same as g_signal_emit, working from
252 (signal_emit_R): return whether return_value needs to be altered.
254 * gtype.[hc]: set log-domain to GRuntime, i'm slowly getting to all
255 the points that need to reflect the upcoming rename.
256 melt g_type_conforms_to() functionality into g_type_is_a(), as that
257 is what we really want (liskov substitution principle).
258 assorted changes to other files due to conforms_to->is_a.
260 * gvalue.[hc]: implemented g_value_set_instance() that sets a value
261 from an instantiatable type via the value_table's collect_value()
262 function (based on an idea from James Henstridge <james@daa.com.au>).
265 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: implement G_TYPE_CCALLBACK and G_TYPE_PARAM.
267 Wed Nov 29 13:30:05 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
269 * gsignal.c (handlers_find): fix elliots "logic fix" that dereferences
270 NULL nodes if C handlers are searched for specific signals.
272 2000-11-28 Elliot Lee <sopwith@redhat.com>
274 * gsignal.c: Fix warnings about possible use of uninitialized
275 variables, and fix logic that would leave 'node' unset in cases
276 that it might be used in.
278 * glib-genmarshal.c: Fix warning about printf format.
280 2000-11-28 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
282 * gboxed.c: Include <string.h> for memset ().
284 2000-11-22 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>

290 * gobject.c (g_object_get_data)
292 (g_object_set_data_full)
293 (g_object_steal_data): More convenient data-setting functions
295 Wed Nov 15 20:58:05 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
297 * gtypemodule.c (g_type_module_use): If loading the
298 module fails, don't increment the use count.
300 Thu Nov 9 01:49:43 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
302 * gobject.h (G_WARN_INVALID_PARAM_ID): doh,
303 s/BSE_OBJECT_TYPE_NAME/G_OBJECT_TYPE_NAME/; reported by Maas-Maarten
304 Zeeman <maas@wanadoo.nl>.
306 Mon Nov 13 00:48:39 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
308 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add glib-genmarshal.1
310 2000-11-11 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>

320 * Makefile.am gtypemodule.[ch]: New basic implementation of
321 GTypePlugin interface as a GObject. Dynamically loaded modules can
322 register any number of types and interface on the module.
324 Sun Nov 5 10:25:40 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
326 * gsignal.c (handlers_find): When appending handlers and
327 not matching on signal_id, use hlist->signal_id instead of
328 signal_id. Having the correct signal_id when unreffing
329 the handlers makes things work a lot better.
331 2000-11-05 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
333 * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in (gobject_OBJECTS): Add gtypeplugin.
335 * gobject.def: Update.
337 Sun Nov 5 05:22:55 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
340 fixed a bag full of subtle bugs of immensive screw-up potential in
341 handlers_find(), luckily no one found out about them yet ;)
342 fixed signal_handlers_foreach_matched_R() so it operates on an
343 initial handler list snapshot provided by handlers_find() to work
344 around general reentrancy problems and to avoid multiple callback()
345 invocations on the same handlers.
346 this code is now officially 80% bug free (10% remaining for interface
347 types, and 10% remaining for destroyed signals ;)
349 Sat Nov 4 02:01:33 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
351 * gsignal.c (_g_signals_destroy): valid signal nodes start out at 1.
353 * gtypeplugin.[hc]: new files holding a GTypePlugin interface
354 implementation that provides the API required by GType to deal with
355 dynamically loadable types.
357 * gtype.[hc]: displace any GTypePlugin business to gtypeplugin.h.
359 Fri Nov 3 07:35:00 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
361 * gsignal.[hc]: prefix internal functions with '_'. renamed
362 g_signal_connect_closure() to g_signal_connect_closure_by_id().
363 added g_signal_parse_name() to retrive signal_id and detail quark
364 from a signal name (internal).
366 Wed Nov 1 03:36:54 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
368 * gobject.c (g_object_base_class_finalize): destroy all signals that
369 the finalized obejct type introduced.
371 * gsignal.c (g_signals_destroy): don't require itype to have
374 * gobject.c (g_object_do_finalize): make sure all signal handlers
378 (g_signal_handler_find): only match on non-0 masks.
379 (g_signal_handlers_block_matched):
380 (g_signal_handlers_unblock_matched):
381 (g_signal_handlers_disconnect_matched): new functions to block/unblock
382 or disconnect handlers in groups.
384 2000-10-30 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
386 * gvalue.c (exchange_entries_equal), gparam.c (param_spec_equals):
387 made both functions return gboolean just for the little extra
388 standard conformance now that GEqualFunc is introduced.
390 Mon Oct 30 05:52:45 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
392 * gsignal.c (g_signal_list_ids): get rid of inline documentation owen
393 added, the doc system would ignore it anyways (for some reason not
396 Mon Oct 30 03:00:07 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
398 * gsignal.[hc] (g_signal_list_ids): renamed owen's g_type_signals(),
399 added required mutex locks.
401 Sun Oct 29 02:31:03 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
403 * gsignal.c (g_type_signals): Fix problem where signals
404 with "_" in them appeared twice in the result array.
406 Sun Oct 29 01:58:44 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
408 * gsignal.h: Add g_type_signals() - a function to list
409 all signals for a given type.
411 Sat Oct 28 00:28:09 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
413 * gclosure.c (g_closure_add_marshal_guards): fixed notifier position
414 for post_marshal guard which was off at 0.
416 Fri Oct 27 21:49:31 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
418 * gobject.[hc]: doh, fix argument order in for
419 g_cclosure_new_object_swap and g_cclosure_new_object.
421 2000-10-28 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
423 * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in: Make glib-genmarshal.exe.
425 * glib-genmarshal.c: Conditionalise include of unistd.h.
426 Include <io.h> on Win32.
428 * gobject.def: Add some missing entry points.
430 Fri Oct 27 16:33:41 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
432 * gsignal.[hc]: publically define GSignalInvocationHint structure
433 that gets passed in to closure invocations. added signal details.
434 renamed GSignalType to GSignalFlags to comply with conventions.
435 quite some cleanups and minor fixes. avoid uneccessary handler list
436 walks upon invokation of after handlers. relookup handler list for
437 restarted emissions. preliminary abort normal handler invokation if
438 after handler is encountered.
441 * gclosure.[hc]: moved invocation_hint to the end of the
442 g_closure_invoke() arguments as sugegsted by kenelson.
443 also made it a gpointer to be more generic. the invocation_hint
444 is a caller specific thing that can be used to pass additional
445 data in to closure invocations as documented with the caller
446 invoking the closure.
448 Fri Oct 27 05:35:14 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
450 * gobject.c (g_object_watch_closure): fixed realloc bug, reported
453 * gsignal.c (g_signal_newv): fixed deadlock scenarion where
454 g_signal_lookup() would be called with the signal lock being
455 held. reported by james henstridge.
457 * gclosure.c (g_closure_set_meta_marshal): fixed memcpy/overwrite bug
460 2000-10-26 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
462 * gbsearcharray.c (bsearch_array_insert): Fix gccisms (pointer
463 arithmetic on void pointer, label without statement following.
465 * gtype.c (type_node_fundamental_info): Don't apply unary minus to
466 result of sizeof operator, it can be unsigned. Cast first to
469 * gobject.def: Add new functions.
471 * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in: Add new objects.
473 2000-10-26 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
475 * Makefile.am: Remove empty SUBDIRS line _again_, as that _still_
476 prevents 'make dist' from working.
478 Wed Oct 25 19:11:03 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
480 * gbsearcharray.h (g_bsearch_array_get_nth): Don't use implicit
481 casts from void * since this will get included from C++ too
484 Thu Oct 26 00:30:27 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
486 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: added g_value_set_static_string().
488 * gboxed.[hc]: const corrections. added g_value_set_static_boxed().
490 Wed Oct 25 20:27:02 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
492 * gtype.c (g_type_free_instance): for the moment, freeing object
493 structures will fill their memory portion with 0xAA. there's a
494 FIXME there, remove this line at a later point.
496 Tue Oct 24 23:10:26 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
499 * glib-genmarshal.c: added publically installed marshaller generator.
501 * gtype.h: added G_TYPE_INSTANCE_GET_INTERFACE() to retrive a certain
502 interface VTable from instances.
504 Mon Oct 23 08:28:15 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
506 * gobject.[hc]: new functions for closure maintenance:
507 (g_object_watch_closure): maintain validity of the object and
508 the closure for objects that are used as data part of a closure.
509 (g_cclosure_new_object): convenience function to create C closures
510 that have an object as data argument.
511 (g_closure_new_object): convenience function to create closures
512 that have an object as data argument.
514 * gclosure.[hc]: implementation of GClosure mechanism.
515 a closure is basically an encapsulation of a callback function
516 and its environment. ideally, most places supporting callback
517 functions will simply take a GClosure* pointer and thus unify
518 callback environments wrg destroy notification etc.
519 GClosure provides destroy notifiers for arbitrary data pointers,
520 reference counting, invalidation notification (it can be invalidated
521 which is merely a deactivate state) and a marshallinbg abstraction.
522 GCClosure is also provided in these files, they present a specialized
523 GClosure implementation for C language callbacks.
525 * genum.c: macro cleanups.
527 * gboxed.[hc]: new files, for boxed type abstraction.
528 (g_boxed_copy): copy a boxed structure
529 (g_boxed_free): free a boxed structure
531 (g_value_get_boxed): standard GValue functions for boxed types
532 (g_boxed_type_register_static): convenience function for easy
533 introduction of new G_TYPE_BOXED derivatives.
535 * gparam.[hc]: introduced g_param_type_register_static(), a short hand
536 for creation of new GParamSpec derived types.
538 * gtype.[hc]: many fixes, introduced ability to flag individual
539 type nodes as ABSTRACT upon registration, added value_peek_pointer()
540 to the value table to peek at GValue contents as a pointer for types
541 that support this. fixed up GValue checks.
543 * gvalue.[hc]: added g_value_fits_pointer() and g_value_get_as_pointer()
544 to peek at the value contents as pointer.
546 * *.[hc]: adaptions to type macro fixes and changes in the type
549 * many const corrections over the place.
551 Sat Oct 21 02:49:56 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
553 * gtype.c (g_type_conforms_to): this function basically behaves like
554 and is_a check, except that it _additionally_ features interfaces
555 for instantiatable types. enforce this in the second branch as well
556 (`type' conforms_to `type') even if `type' is not an interface type.
558 Fri Oct 20 15:31:04 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
560 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: added G_TYPE_POINTER implementation from jrb.
564 * gvaluetypes.c: added GTypeValueTable.value_peek_pointer and
565 suitable implementations of this for G_TYPE_STRING, G_TYPE_OBJECT
568 Mon Aug 21 04:13:37 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
570 * gbsearcharray.[hc]: long standing needed generic implementation
571 of a binary searchable, sorted and dynamically sized array.
573 2000-10-15 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
575 * Makefile.am (BUILT_EXTRA_DIST): New variable.
576 (dist-hook): Handle $(BUILT_EXTRA_DIST).
577 (*): Remove traces of @STRIP_{BEGIN,END}@.
579 2000-09-29 Martin Baulig <baulig@suse.de>
581 Several minor ANSI C fixes.
584 * gtype.c (type_class_init):
585 `(gpointer) bnode->data->class.class_init_base'
586 in call to g_slist_prepend() and
587 'GBaseInitFunc class_init_base = (GBaseInitFunc) slist->data'.
589 * gobject.c: Put text following #endif into comments.
591 2000-09-25 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
593 * Makefile.am: Remove empty SUBDIRS line, as that prevents make
596 Sat Sep 9 20:04:13 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
598 * gobject.c (g_object_last_unref): Move call to
599 g_type_free_instance() here from g_object_do_finalize,
600 since g_type_free_instance() can unload the object's
603 2000-07-27 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
605 * gobject.c: No, don't mark glib_debug_objects for export here,
606 it's handled specially in gtktypeutils.c.

610 2000-07-26 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
613 * gobject.c: Mark glib_debug_objects for export/import as it is
616 Sun Jul 23 17:23:35 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
618 * gtype.[hc]: make g_type_fundamental_last() a function, avoiding all
619 that extern variable clutter and avoiding further problems with thread
622 2000-07-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
627 * gtype.c: Shut up Sun's picky compiler.
629 2000-07-14 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>

633 Thu Jul 13 02:07:54 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
635 * gparam.c (g_param_value_defaults): default initialize the temporary
636 default value, instead of nuking the caller's value contents.
638 2000-07-11 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
640 * gtype.c (g_type_get_plugin): Don't return just 0 or 1.
642 Tue Jul 11 02:48:13 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
644 * gtype.[hc]: removed g_type_is_dynamic() and added g_type_get_plugin().
646 2000-07-10 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
648 * gobject-query.c: Include ../config.h for HAVE_UNISTD_H. Use it
649 to guard inclusion of <unistd.h>.
651 * gtype.h: Fix copy-paste errors in the ifdefs on how to declare a
652 variable for export. Call the macro GOBJECT_VAR.
654 * gtype.c: Declare _g_type_fundamental_last for export here, too.
655 (type_node_any_new): Use only constant expressions for sizeof
656 operator (for instance MSVC requires this).
658 * makefile.mingw.in: Define GOBJECT_COMPILATION.
660 Sun Jul 9 21:21:46 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
662 * genums.c: Move string.h include into the .c file

665 Thu Jul 6 15:30:27 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
667 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): dist fixes.
669 * gobject.c: Add a global variable glib_debug_objects
670 (not in header file) to control object tracing.
672 2000-07-01 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
674 * gobject.def: Update added and renamed entry points.
676 * makefile.mingw.in: Add gvaluetypes.o.
678 Thu Jun 29 16:02:07 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
680 * gobject.c:include string.h for memset
681 * genums.h: include string.h for strcpy
682 * gvalue.c: include string.h for memset, memcpy.
684 Sat Jun 24 23:03:04 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
686 * gtype.[hc]: provide G_TYPE_CHAR, G_TYPE_UCHAR, G_TYPE_BOOLEAN,
687 G_TYPE_INT, G_TYPE_UINT, G_TYPE_LONG, G_TYPE_ULONG, G_TYPE_FLOAT,
688 G_TYPE_DOUBLE and G_TYPE_STRING fundamental types.
689 added a GTypeValueTable* pointer to GTypeInfo structure for types
690 to implement GValue handling functions.
691 GTypeValueTable contains the following members:
692 value_init(): initialize a GValue structure.
693 value_free(): free GValue structure contents (optional).
694 value_copy(): copy one GValue contents to another GValue structure of
695 collect_type: varargs collection type for the first variable argument
696 to be collected by collect_value().
697 collect_value(): variable arguments collection function (optional).
698 lcopy_type: varargs collection type for the first variable argument
699 to be location copyied by lcopy_value().
700 lcopy_value(): variable arguments location copy function (optional).
701 g_type_value_table_peek(): new function to retrive the GTypeValueTable*
702 for a type node. ValueTables get inherited from parent types, unless
703 overridden through the GTypeInfo structure. internally, GTypeValueTable
704 support means an added overhead of one pointer per static or used
706 g_type_add_class_cache_func(): provide a cache_func/data pair to be
707 called prior to a type nodes last_unref() function, this can be used
708 to prevent premature class destruction. multiple installed cache_func()
709 will be chained upon last_unref() untill one of them returns TRUE.
710 the cache_func()s have to check the class id passed in to figure whether
711 they actually want to cache the class of this type (since all classes
712 are routed through the cache_func() chain).
713 g_type_remove_class_cache_func(): remove a previously installed
714 cache_func/data pair. the cache maintained by this function has to be
715 clear when calling g_type_remove_class_cache_func() to avoid leaks.
716 g_type_class_unref_uncached(): class unref function for cache_func()
717 implementations, unreferences a class omitting the cache chain (and
718 therefore unref->cache->unref->... loops).
720 * gvaluetypes.[hc]: provide the value setters/getters for the primitive
721 fundamental types boolean, char, uchar, int, uint, long, ulong, float,
724 * gvalue.[hc]: provide G_TYPE_IS_VALUE() in terms of whether a
725 GTypeValueTable is provided for this type.
726 removed g_value_init_default(), g_value_validate(), g_value_defaults(),
727 g_value_set_default() and g_values_cmp() as these are supplied by the
729 moved g_values_exchange() into the "implementation details" section,
730 since it just provides the underlying functionality for
733 * gvaluecollector.h: renamed the varargs value container from
734 GParamCValue to GTypeCValue as the value collection methods are
735 supplied by the type system now.
736 G_PARAM_COLLECT_VALUE() and G_PARAM_LCOPY_VALUE() got renamed to
737 G_VALUE_COLLECT() and G_VALUE_LCOPY() and operate without a
738 GParamSpec structure now.
740 * genums.h: macros cleanups/fixes.
742 * genum.c: provide G_TYPE_ENUM and G_TYPE_FLAGS type
743 and assorted g_value_{s|g}et_{enum|flags}() implementations.
746 provide G_IS_VALUE_OBJECT(), G_TYPE_OBJECT ValueTable methods
747 and g_value_{s|g}et_object().
749 * gparam.[hc]: reduced class to value_set_default(),
750 value_validate() and values_cmp(). also parameters now need to fill
751 in a GType value_type; field to indicate the GValue type they
752 are handling. provide g_param_value_set_default(),
753 g_param_value_defaults(), g_param_value_validate() and
754 g_param_values_cmp().
756 * gparamspecs.[hc]: got rid of the g_value_* functions and
757 the G_IS_VALUE_* macros. adapted param spec implementations
758 according to the GParamSpecClass changes.
760 Sat Jun 10 08:38:27 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
762 * gtype.c (type_class_init): fetch the nth iface entry of the
763 type node in the nth loop iteration, not alwys the first.
764 bug discovered by Walt Pohl <cher@suitware.com>.
765 (type_data_finalize_class_ifaces): same here, cut and paste
768 Wed Jun 7 09:21:05 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
770 * Makefile.am (INCLUDES): Add top_builddir so glibconfig.h
771 is found properly when build srcdir != builddir. (Patch from
774 2000-05-13 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
778 * gobject.rc.in: New files, for Win32 (mingw) build.
780 * Makefile.am: Add to EXTRA_DIST. Add rules to produce the
781 corresponding non-*.in files.
783 * gtype.h: (Win32:) Mark _g_type_fundamental_last for
784 export/import from DLL.
786 Fri May 5 01:15:48 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
788 * gtype.h: add reserved fundamental ids for gtk types (for transition
789 time). added G_TYPE_FUNDAMENTAL_MAX for gtk.
791 Mon Apr 17 20:45:50 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
793 * glib-gobject.c (g_object_base_class_finalize): oops, don't unset
794 n_params prior to destructing them.
796 Tue Apr 11 04:28:10 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
798 * fixed a couple of bugs in the initial parameter/object
799 implementations, after getting beast running on GObject and GValue.
801 Fri Apr 7 04:27:49 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
803 * glib-gobject.[hc]: completed parameter set/get implementations,
804 along with asyncronous parameter changed notification queue.
806 Sun Apr 2 04:54:36 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
808 * glib-gobject.[hc]: GObject implementation, that is facilities
809 for setting/getting quarked data and reference counting.
811 * glib-gparamspecs.[hc]: first actuall parameter implementations
812 for GLib, so far we have: char, uchar, bool, int, uint, long,
813 ulong, enum, flags, float, double, string and object. each of these
814 GParamSpecs is a new instantiatable type in its own respect,
815 so the .c file derives 13 new types from G_TYPE_PARAM and
816 defines over 50 (*2) conversion facilities.
818 * glib-gvaluecollector.h: generic varargs handling stubs for
819 GParamSpecs, private header file (does get installed for
820 inclusion into user code though).
822 * glib-gvalue.[hc]: GValue functionality implementation.
824 * glib-gparam.[hc]: basis GParamSpec implementation for
825 the virtual base type G_TYPE_PARAM.
827 * glib-genums.[hc]: enum/flags type implementation, based on
830 * glib-gtype.[hc]: GLib Type System implementation, heavily
831 based on BSE's dynamic type system.
