1999-10-31 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
* gcache.c (g_cache_remove): Don't crash if removing a nonexistent
value.
* gutils.c (gwin_getlocale): New Win32-specific function, returns
a Unixish current locale string (en, zh_TW etc).
* glib.h: Declare it.
* glib.def: Export it.
* testglib.c: Test it.
* gmessages.c (Win32: ensure_stdout_valid): Some improvements,
make sure we don't call AllocConsole several times, which I think
has happened.
Sun Oct 17 18:11:40 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* gdataset.c (g_data_set_internal): remove g_dataset_global_lock around
destroy() notification here as well.
1999-10-15 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* gdataset.c (g_datalist_clear_i): Avoid Freezing, when g_datalist
is called recursivly. Reported by Ola Andersson <rand@ling.umu.se>.
Tue Oct 12 14:17:12 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* glib.h: removed useless g_string(x) macro that cluttered the namespace
and was just a poor wrapper around the cpp '#' symbol, use #x if you
need to work around this.
added new macro G_STRINGIFY(arg) that will convert arg to a string,
no matter whether it contains macros or not.
1999-10-12 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
* config.h.win32.in: Define the new GLIB_SIZEOF_* constants here,
too.
* glib.h: Small Win32 comments improvement.
Tue Oct 12 12:16:12 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* gmessages.c (g_printf_string_upper_bound): completly new implementation
for printf string upper bounds calculation.
we handle all glibc 2.1 format specifiers now, except for positional
parameters (%nn$...) and wide char strings, plus some obscure upper
case variants of the standard conversions. this fixes a lot of
bugs in the old code, i.e.
- NULL format strings
- floats with exponents >+24
- %G
- precision specifications in general
- negative field widths
- %p for SIZEOF_VOID_P > 4 platforms
we now issue warnigns in places where the old code would have
caused buffer overruns anyways. warnings are suppressed when invoked
from glogv(), to avoid infinite recursions if someone passes a log
message that comes with really obscure format specifications.
Tue Oct 12 11:49:00 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* gstrfuncs.c: nuked old g_printf_string_upper_bound() version.
Tue Oct 12 03:34:40 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* glib.h: added GFloatIEEE754 and GDoubleIEEE754 unions to access sign,
mantissa and exponent of IEEE floats and doubles (required by the new
version of g_printf_string_upper_bound). the unions are endian specific,
we handle G_LITTLE_ENDIAN and G_BIG_ENDIAN as of currently. ieee floats
and doubles are supported (used for storage) by at least intel, ppc and
sparc, reference:

Mon Oct 11 18:01:49 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* configure.in: added additional checks to figure sizes of size_t,
ptrdiff_t and intmax_t (required by g_printf_string_upper_bound).
* glib.h: (Win32) Drop the mapping of POSIX function names to the
underscored versions, it's unnecessary after all. With MSVC we get
them from oldnames.lib, with gcc-2.95 and mingw32 from
-lmoldname-msvc. Add comment about what headers to include for
prototypes.
1999-10-05 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
* glibconfig.h.win32.in: Don't define WIN32 and NATIVE_WIN32.
* gerror.c (g_on_error_query): (Win32) Slightly more verbosity.
* build-dll: Don't strip.
* gmodule.h: (Win32) Use __declspec(dllexport) in G_MODULE_EXPORT
only with gcc.
Wed Sep 22 01:53:18 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* glib.h (NULL): define NULL as (0L) if __cplusplus is defined, to
avoid "ANSI C++ forbids implicit conversion from `void *' in argument
passing" errors upon NULL usage in C++ programs (gcc-2.95 is on crack
for erroring out on this, instead of just issueing a warning).
* glib.h (g_trash_stack_pop): use uncasted NULL again.
Fri Sep 17 10:24:45 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* gmem.c (g_mem_chunk_compute_size) (g_mem_chunk_new): applied patch
from Soeren Sandmann <sandmann@daimi.au.dk>, to force mem chunk's area
sizes to be a multitiple of atom_size, and to eliminate the MAX_MEM_AREA
restriction of 65536 bytes. we also catch cases where users pass an area
size < atom size with a return_if_fail statement now (which is ok,
because previously this lead to memory corruption anyways).
Mon Sep 13 23:25:59 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* gmessages.c (g_logv): in case we have to abort the program,
debugging is enabled and we are not called recursively, try
to abort with raise (SIGTRAP) first, so developers may ignore
certain failure conditions during debugging stage.
Thu Aug 26 15:09:36 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* Makefile.am:
* gmodule/Makefile.am:
* gthread/Makefile.am: added --export-dynamic so we can load dynmic
modules, (required, according to the libtool 1.3.3 docu).
1999-07-23 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* grand.c (g_rand_new): Use /dev/urandom, as it doesn't block,
which /dev/random might do. Do not XOR the time, when getting the
seed form /dev/urandom, as this is good itself. Prevent the
initial seed from being zero, which causes the PRNG to produce
only zeros. Hints from Colin Plumb <colin@pgp.com>.
* glib.h (g_trash_stack_push): Add a cast.
* gslist.c
* glist.c: Make the inline functions static inline, and add
separate extern wrappers. Not all compilers produce callable entry
points for inline functions, even if gcc does.
Sun Aug 15 02:47:14 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* glib.h (g_trash_stack_pop): eliminate memset() call, since string.h
has not neccessarily been included prior to glib.h.
Mon Aug 2 21:03:10 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* configure.in: added --enable-msg-prefix option.
* gmessages.c (g_log_default_handler): feature "prg_name (pid:%u): "
if --enable-msg-prefix was selected (use "(process:%u): " if
g_get_prgname () returns NULL, along the lines of g_on_error_query).
* glib.h
* gstrfuncs.c
* tests/strfunc-test.c: Rename g_strccpy to g_strcompress and
g_strecpy to g_strescape per Tim Janik's suggestion. Dropped the
destination parameter, always g_malloc a new string. Fix bug in
g_strcompress, octal digits were gobbled up without limit, should
use max three.
Sources that use g_strescape must have ifdefs to be compilable
both with GLib 1.2 and 1.3.
* glib.h
* gstrfuncs.c: the #define for g_strescape interfered with the
compilation of the function, so just remove the function and
note that it's deprecated in the header
-Yosh
* gstrfuncs.c (g_strccpy, g_strecpy): New functions.
* glib.h: Declare and document them. Define the deprecated
g_strescape as a macro that calls g_strecpy.
* tests/strfunc-test.c (main): Test them.
* makefile.{cygwin,msc}.in
* tests/makefile.{cygwin,msc}.in: Remove gstack and its test
program.
* glib.def: Additions and removals.
* README.win32: Improve gcc build instructions.
* build-dll: Also build import library for MSVC.
Sat Jul 24 20:11:35 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* merged GLib 1.3.0 with glib-1.2.3 from Fri Jul 16 22:18:36.
* incorporated proposed cleanups from gtk-devel-list.
* bumped version number to GLib-1.3.1
* glib.h:
* gqueue.c:
* gstring.c:
* glist.c:
removed string tokenisation (we got g_strsplit() and g_strjoin()
already) and readline functions.
s/g_list_delete/g_list_delete_link.
implemented g_slist_delete_link.
removed notion of g_ATEXIT() macro in glib.h, this is an *internal*
macro, g_atexit() is provided for public consumption.
added GTrashStack inline utility functions.
reimplement double eneded queues.
removed GStack implementation, people can use a queue or a (singly)
linked list for this task.
deprecated g_strescape(), we need the SunOS variants here.
* gdate.c: added DEBUG_MSG() macro to wrap old messages.
* *.*: CVS merges.
* upgrade to libtool 1.3.3.
compatibility with MSVC by using the switch -fnative-struct. No
longer build DLLs with .gcc in the name when using gcc.
* README.win32: Renew gcc build instructions.
* build-dll: Comments change, handle also .a files.
* makefile.cygwin.in
* tests/makefile.cygwin.in: Remove .gcc from DLL name.
* README.win32: Correct URL for mingw runtime sources.
* build-dll: Combine commands with &&.
* glib.h: Map also rmdir() and hypot() for MSVCRT library.
* makefile.cygwin.in
* tests/makefile.cygwin.in: New DLL naming style. GCC-compiled DLLs are
now called *.gcc.dll, to avoid binary incompatibilities with
MSVC-compiled versions.
* makefile.msc.in: Cosmetics.
1999-07-07 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* configure.in: Test for pthread_join rather than for
pthread_create to determine the right thread-lib. Makes it work on
mips-sgi-irix6.5. Hitn from to Jari Vuoksenranta
<javu@piano.ux.phys.jyu.fi>.
1999-07-01 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* configure.in, acconfig.h, gutils.c: Added a g_memmove
replacement for platforms without memmove, where bcopy can't
handle overlapping copies and the corresponding checks, which is
taken form the PERL Configure routine.
* glib.h: Updated the commentary about g_memmove to be right and
more GLib-like.
* configure.in: Removed test for rand_r, as it isn't used anymore.
* README.win32: Update the pthreads snapshot version we want.
Advice how to hand-expand the makefile.*.in files.
* config.h.win32.in: Define values needed by Sebastian Wilhelmi's
new thread stuff.
* glib.def: Add new functions.
* glibconfig.h.win32.in: Update the pthreads snapshot version.
Fix typo.
* gthread.c: Include config.h, guard inclusion of unistd.h. When
using gcc on Win32, g_thread_functions_for_glib_use must be marked
for export here, too.
* gtimer.c: Implement g_usleep on native Win32 using Sleep (which
only has millisecond granularity, though).
* makefile.cygwin.in
* makefile.msc.in: Update pthreads snapshot version. File
name changes. Remove testgthread.
* tests/makefile.cygwin.in
* tests/makefile.msc.in: Add thread-test. Link with gthread lib.
* gthread-posix.c: Guard pthread_attr_setscope call with test
for _POSIX_THREAD_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING, which should be defined
in a <pthread.h> that supports that feature.
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.
* gthread/gthread-posix.c, gthread-solaris.c: Added the native
implementations for the GLib's extended thread support.
* gthread/gthread-nspr.c: Removed for good. NSPR is nothing we
would want to build upon.
* gthread/gthread.c: Renamed to gthread-impl.c to avoid
confusion with ../gthread.c (Formerly known as the file called
gmutex.c)
* gthread/testgthread.c: Removed. The new and much extended
tests are in ../tests/thread-test.c.
* gthread/Makefile.am: Changed to reflect the changes above.
* glib.h (Win32): Map fileno to _fileno for mingw32. Map fstat to
_fstat.
* README.win32: Advice also to remove -lmoldname from the
patch to the egcs-1.1.2 spec file patch.
