25f297111e m4macros: Increment serial number of glib-2.0.m4
aclocal's ability to compare the version of macros and use the latest
version relies on the serial number being incremented on every change,
or at least on every functional change.

6f26637e83 m4macros: replace obsolete macros AC_TRY_RUN and AC_TRY_LINK in glib-2.0.m4
Running autoconf 2.70 with -Wall,error on a configure.ac that uses
AM_PATH_GLIB_2_0 gives:

    configure.ac:261: warning: The macro `AC_TRY_RUN' is obsolete.
    configure.ac:261: You should run autoupdate.
    ./lib/autoconf/general.m4:2996: AC_TRY_RUN is expanded from...
    /usr/share/aclocal/glib-2.0.m4:11: AM_PATH_GLIB_2_0 is expanded from...
    configure.ac:261: the top level
    configure.ac:261: warning: The macro `AC_TRY_LINK' is obsolete.
    configure.ac:261: You should run autoupdate.
    ./lib/autoconf/general.m4:2919: AC_TRY_LINK is expanded from...
    /usr/share/aclocal/glib-2.0.m4:11: AM_PATH_GLIB_2_0 is expanded from...
    configure.ac:261: the top level

Run autoupdate on glib-2.0.m4 to change AC_TRY_RUN and AC_TRY_LINK into
the suggested alternative, and adjust the formatting a little bit.

The macros used in the alternative existed for long enough that there
shouldn't be a problem with backwards compatibility.

00bfb3ab44 tree: Fix various typos and outdated terminology
This was mostly machine generated with the following command:
```
codespell \
    --builtin clear,rare,usage \
    --skip './po/*' --skip './.git/*' --skip './NEWS*' \
    --write-changes .
```
using the latest git version of `codespell` as per [these
instructions](https://github.com/codespell-project/codespell#user-content-updating).

Then I manually checked each change using `git add -p`, made a few
manual fixups and dropped a load of incorrect changes.

There are still some outdated or loaded terms used in GLib, mostly to do
with git branch terminology. They will need to be changed later as part
of a wider migration of git terminology.

If I’ve missed anything, please file an issue!

b3efef5b6f build: Drop autotools support
So long, and thanks for everything. We’re a Meson-only shop now.

glib-2-58 will remain the last stable GLib release series which is
buildable using autotools.

We continue to install autoconf macros for autotools-using projects
which depend on GLib; they are stable API.

54cbc9bccf m4macros: Fix detection of glib-2.0 alone
We unconditionally appended ">= $min_glib_version" to the modules to
look for, even though we had already included
"glib-2.0 >= $min_glib_version" in our list. When requesting additional
modules, this was fine, for example

    AM_PATH_GLIB_2_0([2.58], [:], [:], [gobject gio])

ended up asking pkg-config for

    glib-2.0 >= 2.58 gobject-2.0 gio-2.0 >= 2.58

which is redundant (since they all share a version number) but
otherwise OK.

However,

    AM_PATH_GLIB_2_0([2.58], [:], [:], [])

ended up asking pkg-config for

    glib-2.0 >= 2.58 >= 2.58

which is not OK; the second ">=" was parsed as a bizarrely-named package
to check for, and obviously few people have ">=.pc" installed.

Fixes: 4bb16f48 "m4macros: Allow information from pkg-config to be overridden"
2018-10-11 12:50:21 +01:00

4bb16f4845 m4macros: Allow information from pkg-config to be overridden
By using PKG_CHECK_VAR, we declare $GLIB_COMPILE_SCHEMAS,
$GLIB_GENMARSHAL, $GOBJECT_QUERY, $GLIB_MKENUMS and
$GLIB_COMPILE_RESOURCES as Autoconf "precious variables" with AC_ARG_VAR,
similar to $PKG_CONFIG and $CC, so that they can be put on a configure
command line:

    ./configure GLIB_COMPILE_RESOURCES=my-glib-compile-resources

If they are set to a non-empty value, PKG_CHECK_VAR will use that
instead of auto-detecting from pkg-config, so that builders can
override them, for example when cross-compiling.

Similarly, use the standard PKG_CHECK_MODULES macro to get GLib's CFLAGS
and LIBS.

It's possible that most of the rest of each macro can also disappear,
but for the moment I've given them the benefit of the doubt.

This does result in printing "checking for GLIB" twice (once for
PKG_CHECK_MODULES and once for GLib's custom checks), but if you're
using Autotools, you probably don't have a strong objection to overly
verbose output.

3a926db37b build: Include gettext libraries for static compilation on Mac OS X
When compiling statically against the system-provided gettext on Mac OS
X, GLib needs to be linked against CoreFramework, which provides some

Fix this by including the necessary macro magic from upstream gettext.

4.x (1999), and AIX 4.x (1999).

also lets us remove the HP-UX-specific gmodule-dld.

f9eb9eed10 Rework the build system for a new tests approach
Perform a substantial cleanup of the build system with respect to
building and installing testcases.

First, Makefile.decl has been renamed glib.mk and substantially
expanded.  We intend to add more stuff here in the future, like canned
rules for mkenums, marshallers, resources, etc.

By default, tests are no longer compiled as part of 'make'.  They will
be built when 'make check' is run.  The old behaviour can be obtained
with --enable-always-build-tests.

--disable-modular-tests is gone (because tests are no longer built by
default).  There is no longer any way to cause 'make check' to be a
no-op, but that's not very useful anyway.

A new glibtests.m4 file is introduced.  Along with glib.mk, this
provides for consistent handling of --enable-installed-tests and
--enable-always-build-tests (mentioned above).

Port our various test-installing Makefiles to the new framework.

This patch substantially improves the situation in the toplevel tests/
directory.  Things are now somewhat under control there.  There were
some tests being built that weren't even being run and we run those now.
The long-running GObject performance tests in this directory have been
removed from 'make check' because they take too long.

As an experiment, 'make check' now runs the testcases on win32 builds,
by default.  We can't run them under gtester (since it uses a pipe to
communicate with the subprocess) so just toss them in TESTS.  Most of
them are passing on win32.

Things are not quite done here, but this patch is already a substantial
improvement.  More to come.

28b30caecb configure: Enable set of standard -Werror=foo flags
We're not going to depend on gnome-common (I assume) so this patch
nicks the systemd macro to test for compiler flags, and uses it to set
a similar set of -Werror=foo as the gnome-common one does.

See https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=608953
See https://mail.gnome.org/archives/desktop-devel-list/2012-July/msg00100.html

If we're going to be setting more strict compiler flags for GNOME, we
should really ensure GLib builds with them first, as it's kind of the
model citizen.

In particular, you can see several times that downstreams such as
Debian have come in and fixed -Wformat-security bugs.  We should never
let those get into tarballs, or even commits.

9126f1afae gsettings m4: Use --strict for checking
A while ago we allowed glib-compile-schemas to return a 'success' status
in the case that just one schema file contained errors.  Of course, this
is the exact opposite of what we want in the case that we are checking
schema validity at compile time.

Use the --strict flag for that case.

136e705e83 Bug 627126 - gsettings schemas on FreeBSD
Rewrite the install rule for GSettings schemas to not depend on an
obscure chunk of non-portable sed that nobody understands the purpose
of.

Instead, use make's VPATH feature to resolve the paths of the files that
need to be installed.  No need to depend on the .valid targets here
since automake already ensures that 'make all' is complete before 'make
install' is permitted to run.
