Bug 555224 Improve g_format_size_for_display doc
* glib/gfileutils.c: change g_format_size_for_display API doc to
explicitly say that the returned string has to be freed. Change
spelling of "newly allocated" to "newly-allocated" in g_file_read_link
API doc to be more consistent with what is done in that file.
2008-10-01 David Zeuthen <davidz@redhat.com>
* README.in: Add "Notes about glib 2.20" section detailing the
ramifications of the patch from bug #528670.
2008-09-30 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
Bug 554092 glib doesn't return G_FILE_ERROR_NOENT et al on OS X
* glib/giounix.c (g_io_unix_read), (g_io_unix_write),
(g_io_unix_seek), (g_io_unix_close), (g_io_unix_set_flags),
(g_io_unix_get_flags), (g_io_channel_new_file):
Like mclasen says: "well, thats the way errno works...,
save it or loose it". Save errno.
2008-09-30 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
* Makefile.decl
* glib/tests/Makefile.am: Bypass gtester related stuff on Windows.
2008-09-30 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
* glib/gprintf.c
* glib/gnulib/vasnprintf.c: Don't define _GNU_SOURCE on Windows,
as _GNU_SOURCE has unintended side effects when compiling against
newest mingw headers.
2008-09-26 Dan Winship <danw@gnome.org>
Bug 553447 g_assert_no_error()
* glib/gtestutils.h (g_assert_no_error, g_assert_error): Macros to
assert that a GError is not set, or else is set to a particular
error.
* glib/gtestutils.c (g_assertion_message_error): utility for
those macros
* glib/tests/keyfile.c:
* tests/asyncqueue-test.c:
* tests/bookmarkfile-test.c:
* tests/convert-test.c:
* tests/file-test.c: Use g_assert_error/g_assert_no_error
2008-09-26 Dan Winship <danw@gnome.org>
* glib/gthreadpool.c (wakeup_thread_marker): make this a "const
gpointer" rather than a gconstpointer to avoid warnings later
* glib/pcre/pcre_ucp_searchfuncs.c:
* glib/pcre/pcre_valid_utf8.c: #include "config.h"
* glib/tests/printf.c (test_d): fool gcc into not warning about
some printf format strings that we know are dubious
2008-09-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
Bug 553857 gbacktrace.h requires signal.h
* glib/gbacktrace.h: Include signal.h for raise().
Pointed out by Sebastien Bacher

Bug 553724 python interpretter path not patched in correctly
* glib/Makefile.am: Fix the sed magic to replace python.
2008-09-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/gmain.c: Add some more docs.
* glib/giochannel.c: Move more docs inline, and improve them
on the way.
2008-09-25 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
Bug 553820 - gpoll.c: undeclared identifier
* glib/gmain.c
* glib/gpoll.c: Make the g_poll() function non-static also on
Windows. Prefix an underscore to the g_main_poll_debug variable
and make it non-static in gmain.c so that it can be used in
gpoll.c. Add back missing variable declaration.
2008-09-25 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
* glib/gspawn-win32.c (do_spawn_with_pipes) (do_spawn_directly):
Just ignore the child_setup function, never call it. The is no
situation in which it could be useful on Windows. Do print a
warning, like before.
* glib/gspawn.c (g_spawn_async_with_pipes): Corresponding change
in documentation.
2008-09-24 Sven Herzberg <sven@imendio.com>
Be a little more explcit in the docs. Includes Owen's requested
changes.
* glib/gmain.c: improved documentation for g_source_attach() and
g_source_destroy()
2008-09-23 Michael Natterer <mitch@imendio.com>
* glib/glib.h: #include <glib/gpoll.h>
* glib/gpoll.h: #error out if gpoll.h is included directly.
* glib/gpoll.c: remove trailing whitespace.
2008-09-23 Dan Winship <danw@gnome.org>
* glib/gpoll.[ch] (g_poll): Move this out of gmain.c and make it part
of the public API. (Part of Bug 505361 - gunixinputstream.c assumes
poll() available.)
2008-09-23 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
* glib/gmain.c (poll_rest) [Win32]: Fix embarrassing bug: I was
passing an incorrect third parameter to memmove(), had forgotten
to multiply by the size of the table entry. Just use a for loop
instead, clearer. Odd I didn't notice when testing this code.
Rewrite most of GHashTable to use open addressing with quadratic probing 2008-09-19 Hans Petter Jansson <hpj@novell.com> Rewrite most of GHashTable to use open addressing with quadratic probing instead of chaining. This has the potential to reduce memory fragmentation significantly, while being slightly faster due to better locality and no need to call alloc/free functions for nodes. Benchmarks suggest it also uses less memory overall. * glib/ghash.c (prime_mod): Table of suitable primes for initial-probe distribution. (g_hash_table_set_shift): New function. (g_hash_table_find_closest_shift): New function. (g_hash_table_set_shift_from_size): New function. (g_hash_table_lookup_node_for_insertion): New function. (g_hash_table_lookup_node): Rewritten to return node index instead of pointer, use quadratic probe on flat table, and not return insertion data. The latter saves some computation for read-only lookups. (g_hash_table_remove_node): Rewrite to take a pointer directly to the node structure to remove, and clear that. Remove unlinking code. (g_hash_table_remove_all_nodes): Rewrite to not clear nodes individually, but en masse using memset () after potentially calling notify functions. (iter_remove_or_steal): Use new data structure and algorithm. Vastly simplified - now just a call to g_hash_table_remove_node (). (g_hash_table_resize): New resize code, re-indexing with new prime and cleaning up tombstones. (g_hash_table_maybe_resize): Table may hold 8 buckets minimum, no less than 1/4 load excluding tombstones, and no more than 15/16 load including tombstones. These numbers are the results of a lot of benchmarking with multiple complex applications, and should not be changed lightly.

* glib-zip.in: Look for man pages in share/man.
* glib/gutils.c (_glib_get_dll_directory)
* glib/gspawn-win32.c (do_spawn_with_pipes): Be a bit less
restrictive, look for the helper programs in the same folder where
the GLib DLL is, not necessarily in a "bin" subfolder of the top
GLib installation folder.

* configure.in: Bump version to 2.19.0
