For some reason, even though the tests are linked against libgobject.la
and libgobject.la mentions libglib.la as a dependency, the tests are
running against the system glib instead of the in-tree one.
Adding the libglib.la file as an explicit LDFLAG fixes it.
These are basic performance test for a couple of basic gobject
primitives:
* construction of simple objects. Simple is a bare gobject derived
class with no properties, signals or interfaces.
* construction of complex objects. Complex is a gobject subclass
with construct properties, normal properties, signals, and
implements an interface.
* run-time type check of complex objects
* signal emissions
Lots of care is taken to try to make the results reproducible. Each
test is run for multible "rounds", where we try to make each round be
"not too short" in order to be significant wrt timer accuracy, but
also "not to long" to make the probability of some other random event
happening on the system (interrupts, other process scheduled, etc)
during the round less likely.
The current target round time is 4 msecs, which was picked without
rigour, but seems small wrt e.g. scheduler time.
For each test we then run the calculated round size for 60 seconds,
and then report the performance based on the minimal time of one
round. The model here is that any random stuff that happens during a
round can only slow it down, there is nothing that can make it go
faster, so the minimal time is the best estimate of how fast one round
goes.
The result is not ideal, even on a "idle" system the results vary
from round to round, but the variation seems to be less than 1%.
So, any performance difference reported by this test over 1% is
probably statistically significant.
Additionally the tests can be run with or without threads being
initialized. The script tests/gobject/run-performance.sh makes
it easy to produce a performance report for the current checkout.

G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS flag. Fixes bug #432895.

2005-05-05 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
* gobject.[ch] gobject.symbols: Add
g_object_add/remove_toggle_ref() functions to get notification
when a reference count is the last remaining reference; this
enables better memory management for language bindings.

2005-05-05 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
* glib/gdataset.[ch] glib/gdatasetprivate.h: Add
g_datalist_set/unset_flags(), g_datalist_get_flags() functions
to squeeze some bits into a GDataSet... this is needed for
efficient implementation of toggle references in GObject.
* tests/gobject/references.c tests/gobject/Makefile.am:
Add a test case for weak and toggle references.
* glib/gfileutils.[ch]: Rename g_file_replace() back

* configure.in: Force shared library (DLL) only on Windows.
(I don't think that is controversial?) Remove unnecessary
AC_LIBTOOL_WIN32_DLL. Don't use -D_REENTRANT on
Win32, it is not used by mingw or MSVC headers.
* config.h.win32.in
* glibconfig.h.win32.in: Match what configure produces.
* glib/gconvert.c
* glib/gutils.c: Mark a couple of functions and variables that
aren't public as static.

missing gunicode-private.h.
* tests/testglib.c (main): Fix a warning.
* tests/gobject/ifaceinherit.c: Remove check that
wasn't supposed to work (adding an interface already
added to the derived class to the base class),
fix a bug.
Thu Oct 2 01:15:46 2003 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
* tests/gobject/ifacecheck.c: Test case for
g_type_add_interface_check().

Thu Oct 2 01:11:39 2003 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
* tests/gobject/ifaceinherit.c: Remove some tests that
were testing things that weren't supposed to work; add
a test for adding an interface first to the child class,
then to the parent class.
Thu Oct 2 00:02:55 2003 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
* tests/gobject/Makefile.am test/gobject/ifaceinherit.c:
Tests of interface inheritance and overriding.
Thu Sep 25 15:43:08 2003 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
* tests/gobject/testmodule.[ch] test/gobject/Makefile.am:
Dummy dynamic type module for testing type plugin code
and dynamic types.
* test/gobject/defaultiface.c: Test of g_default_interface_ref,
etc.
Tue Sep 2 19:37:21 2003 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* gtype.[hc]: added support for a "default vtable" per interface,
that interface vtables are initialized from.
the default vtable is initialized and finalized through class_init,
class_finalize and class_data from the interfaces GTypeInfo struct.
(type_data_last_unref_Wm): unload child plugin before unreffing
parent type.
testifaceinit.c: minor fixups. fixed up base_init() assertions, since
with a default vtable, base_init() may be called multiple times.
added default initializer to iface1.
Wed Aug 27 01:25:40 2003 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
* Makefile.am testifaceinit.c: Add a detailed test case
for interface initialization, testing the ability to
add interfaces during class initialization and the ordering
of interface base_init, class init, and interface_init.
(Expected to fail at the moment.)
Tue Dec 18 21:39:57 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* testoverride.c: added some assertions to test
g_signal_get_invocation_hint().
* gsignal.[hc]: remove signal_id argument from
g_signal_chain_from_overridden(), the parameters are assumed to match
the innermost signal currently in emission for this instance.
added g_signal_get_invocation_hint() to figure the invocation hint
of the innermost signal emission of an instance.
* gsignal.c (g_signal_list_ids): fix G_BSEARCH_ARRAY_NODES() to
access a bsearch array and not a pointer to it (discovered by
Sven Neumann).
