glib/ChangeLog.pre-2-0

1999-06-18  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* configure.in: Changed test for pthread_attr_setstacksize from
	AC_TRY_COMPILE to AC_TRY_LINK.

1999-06-17  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* configure.in, acglib.m4, acconfig.h, glib.h, gthread.c:
	Completed the thread support in GLib. Thread creation,
	prioritizing threads, yielding, joining threads as well as
	reader/writer locks and recursive mutexes are now in place. Please
	test heavily on your platform. It is so far tested on
	Linux/i386/pthreads, Solaris/Sparc/pthreads and
	Solaris/Sparc/solaristhreads.

	* gtimer.c, glib.h: Implement g_usleep (gulong microseconds) for
	thread safe sleeping. (sleep() is not MT-safe at all!)

	* gutils.c: Avoid compiler warning.

	* tests/Makefile.am, tests/thread-test.c: New program to test some
	aspects of the thread implementation.

	* gthread.c, Makefile.am: Renamed from gmutex.c to reflect the
	change of content.

	* configure.in: Purged all appearances of nspr.

1999-05-08  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* Makefile.am tests/Makefile.am: Correct rules for making the
	win32-related files that are made from corresponding .in files.
	Is there a cleaner way than explicitly writing rules that invoke
	config.status?

	* configure.in
	  gmodule/Makefile.am

	* makefile.msc.in makefile.cygwin.in glibconfig.h.win32.in
 	config.h.win32.in tests/makefile.msc.in tests/makefile.cygwin.in:
 	New files, used to generate corresponding non-.in files when
 	making a dist. This is just so the version numbers will be kept in
 	synch automatically.

	* configure.in: Also substitute @GLIB_MAJOR_VERSION@,
 	@GLIB_MINOR_VERSION@, and @GLIB_INTERFACE_AGE@.
	
	* Makefile.am tests/Makefile.am: Also distribute makefile.cygwin.

	explicitly, they are included anyway.

1999-04-24  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	Support added for building using a GNU toolchain on Win32,
	i.e. gcc -mno-cygwin on cygwin (a.k.a. mingw32, using egcs-1.1.2).

	* README.win32: Updated.

Fri Apr 23 14:29:25 BST 1999  Tony Gale <gale@gtk.org>

	* glib.h: Fix typo in g_string_ncasecmp macro (by me).
	  Add b_string_strncasecmp macro.

1999-04-22  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* gutils.c (g_get_any_init): use sysconf (_SC_GETPW_R_SIZE_MAX) as
	the new initinal bufsize for getpwuid_r on systems, that support
	this. Hint from Holger Duerer <H.Duerer@zait.uni-bremen.de>.

Sat Apr 17 20:55:13 BST 1999  Tony Gale <gale@gtk.org>

	* glib.h, gstring.c: Add new g_string functions for reading
	  from file/socket descriptors, and tokenising strings.

	* grand.c, tests/rand-test.c: New files to implement the Mersenne
	Twister Pseudo Random Number Generator.

	* glib.h, AUTHORS, Makefile.am, tests/Makefile.am: Changed
	accordingly.

Thu Apr  8 21:12:30 CDT 1999 Shawn T. Amundson <amundson@gtk.org>

	* Released GLib 1.3.0

1999-03-30  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* configure.in: Added a check for the right format to printf and
	scanf long longs. It is %qi instead of %lli on FreeBSD for
	whatever reason.

1999-03-28  Raja R Harinath  <harinath@cs.umn.edu>

	* Makefile.am (glibconfig.h): Make sure `glibconfig.h' exists
	after the rule is fired.
	(install-exec-local): Install glibconfig.h only if the contents
	are different from the currently installed glibconfig.h.

1999-03-26  Raja R Harinath  <harinath@cs.umn.edu>

Fri Mar 19 16:29:50 PST 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>

	* acinclude.m4
	* config.guess
	* config.sub
	* ltconfig
	* ltmain.sh: upgrade to libtool 1.2f

	* autogen.sh: libtool is not required to autogen glib

	* acconfig.h: remove WITH_SYMBOL_UNDERSCORE (not explictly
	needed)

1999-03-18  Jeff Garzik  <jgarzik@pobox.com>

	* glib.def: Add new g_list, g_stack, g_queue functions.

1999-03-18  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* configure.in: added new AC_SUBST(GTHREAD_COMPILE_IMPL_DEFINES)
	to hold various defines to get the right thread implementation on
	different platforms. Also look in -ldce for pthread_create. Should
	make it work on HP-UX 10.x. Information from "D. Emilio Grimaldo
	Tunon" <emilio_tunon@nl.compuware.com>.

1999-03-17  Jeff Garzik  <jgarzik@pobox.com>

	* gstack.c, gqueue.c:
	Add copyright, clean up code a bit.

1999-03-17  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* configure.in: Added missing values for G_MAXU(SHORT|INT|LONG) on
	platforms with only /usr/include/values.h.

        * glibconfig.h.win32, config.h.win32: Moved G_THREADS_IMPL_POSIX
	from config.h.win32 to glibconfig.h.win32. Taken from glib 1.2
	branch.

	* configure.in: Also accept _Pctime_r instead of ctime_r, while
	seraching for the right `_REENTRANT' flag. This is for Digital
	UNIX 4.0d. Taken from glib 1.2 branch.

Wed Mar 17 03:14:56 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* glib.h: added GLIB_CHECK_VERSION() macro similar to
	GTK_CHECK_VERSION().

Wed Mar 17 01:46:28 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

        * merges from glib-1-2:
        
Sun Mar 14 17:50:35 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

        * gmem.c (g_mem_chunk_*): changed a bunch of g_assert() statements
        to g_return_if_fail().
        (g_mem_profile):
        (g_mem_chunk_print):
        (g_mem_chunk_info): removed some extraneous "\n"s at the end of the log
        messages.

        * gtimer.c (g_timer_*): changed a bunch of g_assert() statements
        to g_return_if_fail().
        * grel.c (g_*): changed a bunch of g_assert() statements to
        g_return_if_fail() and added some extra ones to check relation != NULL.

Tue Mar  9 23:25:50 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

        * configure.in: check for working realloc (NULL,).
        * gmem.c (g_realloc): use malloc() for initial allocation on systems
        where realloc(NULL,) will not work (this is the case on SunOS, reported
        by Tom Geiger).

Mon Mar  8 07:42:08 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

        * ghook.c (g_hook_unref): when !hook_list->is_setup, wrap the
        flag around the call to g_hook_free() to avoid spurious
        warnings (happens during destruction phase).

1999-03-02  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

        * gmem.c: Fixed a stupid cut'n'paste error of mine. Thanks to
        Friedrich Dominicus <Friedrich.Dominicus@inka.de>

1999-03-16  Timur Bakeyev  <mc@bat.ru>

	* configure.in: Fix problem with pthread_create in libc, as running
	"gcc test.c -l " is not legal.

1999-03-16  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* tests/type-test.c: Added a test for the
	G_(U)?INT(16|32|64)_FORMAT and G_(MIN|MAX|MAXU)(SHORT|INT|LONG)
	macros.

	* configure.in: Removed G_(U)?INT8_FORMAT again, as it can't be
	used for scanf.

	* configure.in: Added the macros G_MAXU(SHORT|INT|LONG). I do not
	know how to handle these on platforms with /usr/include/values.h,
	but without /usr/include/limits.h. Please someone add this.


1999-03-15  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* configure.in: Added the macros G_(U)?INT(8|16|32|64)_FORMAT to
	use for printf and (much more important) scanf format strings for
	the corresponding GLib types. 

	* glib.h Added G_(U)?(SHORT|INT|LONG)_FORMAT for consistency. It
	however makes no sense to also provide G_(FLOAT|DOUBLE)_FORMAT, as
	they are different for printf (f for both) and scanf (f for float,
	lf for double). Defining G_INT_FORMAT makes sense however, as we
	might want to define gint to something different than int someday
	in the future. Idea from Sascha Brawer <sb@adasys.ch>.
	
1999-03-14  Jeff Garzik  <jgarzik@pobox.com>

	* gdate.c:
	Commented out debugging output.

	* tests/Makefile.am, tests/date-test.c:
	Added test of the GDate module, based closely on testgdate.c.

	* tests/Makefile.am:
	Bugfix - compile tests with @GLIB_DEBUG_FLAGS@.

1999-03-14  Raja R Harinath  <harinath@cs.umn.edu>

	* configure.in (glibconfig.h): Remove widechar tests and defines.
	(fd_set): Change the grep for `fd_mask' to search for `fd_set'.
	* gerror.c (fd_mask): Remove conditional typedef.  It is not used
	elsewhere in the file.
	* gmain.c (fd_mask): Likewise.

1999-03-12  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* configure.in: Test for posix threads first, then for dce threads.

1999-03-11  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* configure.in: Revamped the thread configure stuff. Now dce
	threads (old posix draft) are recogniced. This is necessary,
	because dce threads are in fact working quite differently from
	posix threads. Also changed the conditions for checking for MT
	safe functions a bit, because G_THREADS_IMPL_NONE still have to
	compile thread safe. NOTE: Please do not commit my change to
	glib-1-2/{acconfig.h,configure.in,config.h.win32} from 1999-03-03,
	as the current change will take care of that too.

Tue Mar  9 14:37:32 1999  Jeff Garzik  <jgarzik@pobox.com>

	* Makefile.am, glib.h, gstack.c, gqueue.c,
	  tests/Makefile.am, tests/queue-test.c, tests/stack-test.c:
	Added stack, queue ADTs and related tests.

	* glib.h, glist.c:
	New g_list_delete() function.

Sat Mar  6 11:03:08 1999  Asbjorn Pettersen  <ape@lrdpf.spacetec.no>

	* gutils.c (g_get_any_init): add OS/2 changes.
	change '\\' in HOME to '/'.

1999-03-03  Josh MacDonald  <jmacd@spin.dsl.pacbell.net>

	* glib.def: g_spaced_primes_closest was omitted here, so I
	couldn't build Xdelta on Windows.

1999-03-01  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* gutils.c (g_get_any_init): Fixed yet another bloody
	implementation of getpwuid_r on AIX. Thanks to Olaf Dietsche
	<olaf.dietsche+list.gtk@netcologne.de>. I would like a configure
	test better than that, but have no idea, how to do that easily.

Sat Feb 27 01:18:47 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* ChangeLog: moved old ChangeLog to ChangeLog.pre-1-2, and started
	new one.

	* configure.in: set glib version to 1.3.0.
