* configure.in: version bump to 1.1.8, binary age 0, interface age 0.
* glib.h: changed g_lock() to G_LOCK(), g_unlock() to G_UNLOCK() and
g_trylock() to G_TRYLOCK(), since these are macros that expand to
nothing with --disable-threads.
changed G_LOCK_DEFINE() to G_LOCK_DECLARE() and introduced
G_LOCK_DECLARE_STATIC() to achive the results of static G_LOCK_DECLARE().
changed semantics of g_thread_supported to g_thread_supported() so it
can be used as a function like g_module_supported(). the actuall
definition is still a macro that expands into a variable for
performance reasons though.
various indentation and coding style cleanups.
* configure.in: added --enable-threads that defaults to yes.
* gmutex.c: changed tests g_thread_supported to g_thread_supported (),
changed variable settings of g_thread_supported
to g_threads_got_initialized.

branch. See the ChangeLog for details of the changes.
In brief overview:
- The set of threading functions can be set
- A default implementation is provided in -lgthread
- All static data structures are locked using these
functions if g_thread_init() is called.

* glib.h: removed the GListAllocator type and its g_*_allocator_*()
function variants (which weren't working anyways) in favour of a
generic GAllocator type. new functions:
g_allocator_new, g_allocator_free, g_slist_push_allocator,
g_slist_pop_allocator, g_list_push_allocator, g_list_pop_allocator,
g_node_push_allocator and g_node_pop_allocator.
* gstring.c: removed bogus slist allocator code.
* gtree.c: maintain own list of free tree nodes and don't waste
GSLists for that, removed bogus slist allocator code.
* glist.c: use GAllocators for node allocation.
* gslist.c: use GAllocators for node allocation.
* gnode.c: use GAllocators for node allocation.
* gdataset.c: cleanups wrt automatic initialization.

* glib.h:
* gstring.c:
* gstrfuncs.c:
(g_vsprintf): removed this function which was not publically
exported in glib.h. to export it, it should have been named
differently in the first place, since its semantics differ from
vsprintf(). apart from that, it was a possible cause for
problems since it worked on a previously allocated memory area and
was used in a lot places of glib. exporting it would have been a
guararant for problems with threaded programs.
(g_printf_string_upper_bound): exported this function to return
a string size, guarranteed to be big enough to hold the fully
expanded format+args string. added 'q', 'L' and 'll' flag handling.
in fact, the newly allocated area is in most cases much bigger than
required.
(g_strdup_vprintf()): new function returning a newly allocated string
containing the contents of *format and associated args (size is
calculated with g_printf_string_upper_bound()).
(g_strdup_printf): new function which wraps g_strdup_vprintf().
* configure.in: check for va_copy() or __va_copy() alternatively.
check whether va_lists can be copyied by value.
* glib.h: provide a definition for G_VA_COPY.
* glib.h:
* gmessages.c:
(g_logv):
(g_vsnprintf):
pass va_lists by value, not by reference, since this causes problems
on platforms that implement va_list as as arrays. internaly, use
G_VA_COPY (new_arg, org_arg); va_end (new_arg); to produce a second
va_list variable, if multiple passes are required. changed all
callers.
* glib.h:
* gerror.h:
renamed g_debug() to g_on_error_query(), cleaned up a bit.
renamed g_stack_trace() to g_on_error_stack_trace() since both
functions cluttered different namespaces.
there is an appropriate comment in glib.h now that explains the
unix and gdb specific dependencies of both functions.
removed g_attach_process().
g_on_error_stack_trace() should probably be handled with caution,
i've seem several different linux versions (2.0.x) become unstable
after invokation of this function.

* version bump to 1.1.3, binary age 0, interface age 0.
* glib.h: be nice to platforms that don't have gint64 and don't
issue #warning on every compilation. since glib doesn't require
gint64 itself, packages that need gint64 should test for this
themselves.
* glib.h:
* gutils.c: added a new function g_vsnprintf().
Fri Aug 14 16:41:53 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* glib.h: added static inline functions for bit mask tests:
g_bit_nth_lsf, g_bit_nth_msf and g_bit_storage.
Fri Aug 13 14:23:37 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* glib.h:
* gmessages.c:
revised the message handling system, which is now based on a new
mechanism g_log*. most of the assertment macros got adapted to
feature the new g_log() call with an additional specification of
the log level in a preprocessor macro G_LOG_DOMAIN. if G_LOG_DOMAIN
is undefined upon the includion of glib.h, it'll be defined with a
value of (NULL) and thus preserves the original bahaviour for
warning and error messages. the message handler setting functions
for g_warning, g_error and g_message are only provided for backwards
compatibility and might get removed somewhen.
* Makefile.am: feature the G_LOG_DOMAIN macro to set the log domain
to "GLib" upon compilation. we currently have to add this definition
to the DEFS variable.
* testglib.c: we need an ugly #undef G_LOG_DOMAIN at the start
of this file currently, since automake doesn't support per target
_CFLAGS yet.
* glib.h: changed some gints to gbooleans, made a few const corrections,
removed some superfluous G_STMT_START{}G_STMT_END wrappers, added some
in other required places.
* gnode.c:
(g_node_prepend):
(g_node_insert_before):
(g_node_insert):
(g_node_append_data):
(g_node_prepend_data):
(g_node_insert_data_before):
(g_node_insert_data):
(g_node_append):
return (node), so these macros/functions can be usefully chained with
g_node_new().

* Makefile.am: feature the G_LOG_DOMAIN macro to set the log domain
to "GModule" upon compilation. we currently have to add this definition
to the DEFS variable.
* testgmodule.c: we need an ugly #undef G_LOG_DOMAIN at the start
of this file currently, since automake doesn't support per target
_CFLAGS yet.
Fri Jun 12 00:39:28 1998 Josh MacDonald <jmacd@icw.EECS.Berkeley.EDU>
* glib.h: add new hash and equal functions g_int_*. complement
g_direct_hash with g_direct_equal.
* grel.c: new file, GRelations implement tuples of N-N mappings.
A comment in glib.h briefly describes the interface.
* ghash.c: new function, g_hash_table_size
* glib.h: new typedefs, gsize, gssize, gtime.
* garray.c: new functions implementing a simplified GArray. This
GPtrArray is an array of gpointers and has functions to add and
remove elements, much like java.lang.Vector.
* garray.c: new functions for the single-byte special case of
GArray. The functions g_byte_array* operate on arrays of bytes.
Internally, a GArray is used.
* testglib.c: tests for g_ptr_array, g_byte_array, and g_relation...
