* glib.h:
* garray.c: (g_array_free), (g_ptr_array_free),
(g_byte_array_free): Return the data left behind.
* gstring.c: (g_string_free): Return the data left behind.
Changed the free calls that leave data behind so they
return a pointer to the left-behind data, NULL if told not
to leave anything behind. This makes these calls easier
to use correctly, without any incompatible API change for
callers that don't know about the return value. Of course,
it would be even clearer if the free calls weren't dual-purpose
in the first place.

Finally, a new and improved IO Channel and condition watch
implementation for Win32. Based on code provided by Craig Setera.
When watching file descriptors, for which there is no select()
like functionality on Win32 that would work on all Win32 platforms
for all types of file descriptors (including anonymous pipes), we
start a new thread that blocks while trying to read from the file
descriptor. When the read returns, a Win32 Event is signalled that
the polling routine eventually notices. Meanwhile, the data being
read is stored in a circular buffer, from where the IO channel's
read() method picks it up.
If the buffer fills up the reading thread has to wait for space
becoming available. For this another Win32 Event is used. The IO
Channel's read() method signals this when it has read some data
out of the buffer.
The separate reader thread(s), and the circular buffer(s) with
associated events mean lots of possibilities for fun parallellism
errors. But it seems to work OK, i.e. GIMP runs.
* gmain.c: Small changes to the Win32 polling function.
(g_main_win32_get_poll_func): New function. Perhaps it would be a
good idea to provide this on all platforms.
* giowin32.c: The bulk of the new implementation.
(g_io_channel_win32_wait_for_condition): New function. To be used
where on Unix one does a select() on the channel's fd, like
libgimp's gimp_extension_process(). Could be provided on all
platforms.
* glib.h: Update documentation for IO Channels on Win32. Remove
the declarations for the as of now obsolete old functions related
to IO Channels for pipes with "wakeup" messages.
* glib.def: Some new functions.
* tests/gio-test.c: New file, to test GIOChannel and main loop.
* tests/Makefile.am
* tests/makefile.mingw.in: Add it.
Wed Jul 26 12:59:31 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* *.[hc]: applied patch from Andreas Persenius <ndap@swipnet.se> that
updates the license headers to the GNU Lesser General Public License,
as well as updating the copyright year to 2000.
Wed Jul 26 05:47:48 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* configure.in:
* testglib.c:
* gstrfuncs.c:
* glib.h: added g_strlcat() and g_strlcpy() wrappers, supplied by
David Wheeler <dwheeler@ida.org>:
* glib.h, gstrfuncs.c: added g_strlcpy and g_strlcat to support
safe manipulation of fixed-length string buffers.
These functions were originally developed by Todd Miller to simplify
development of security-related programs, and
are available on many (but not all) Unix-like systems,
including OpenBSD, FreeBSD, and Solaris. See
ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/src/lib/libc/string/strlcpy.3
and http://www.openbsd.org/security.html.
If there's a strlcpy/strlcat on the system, it's called, otherwise
an implementation is provided.
* testglib.c: Added tests for g_strlcpy, g_strlcat.
Wed Jul 26 05:03:24 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* acglib.m4 (GLIB_SIZEOF): include <stdlib.h> and <stddef.h> if
STDC_HEADERS is defined.
* glib.h:
* glibconfig.h: define gsize and gssize in terms of GLIB_SIZEOF_SIZE_T
* glib.h (g_return_if_reached): applied darin's fix for copy'n
paste error in the macro implementation.
2000-07-20 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* gutils.c, glib.h: Mark the functions g_basename and g_dirname
deprecated. They will issue an warning once, when compiled with
G_ENABLE_DEBUG, but continue to work as before. Instead the
functions g_path_get_basename and g_path_get_dirname should be
used, which BOTH return newly allocated memory, that has to freed
by g_free. The new g_path_get_basename now strips trailing slashes
from the path. This fixes#5097. For discussion see
http://mail.gnome.org/pipermail/gtk-devel-list/2000-April/003139.html
* gwin32.c, testglib.c, tests/dirname-test.c: Use the new
functions instead of the old ones.
* gmodule/libgplugin_a.c, gmodule/testgmodule.c: Use
g_path_get_basename instead of the deprecated g_basename.
2000-07-20 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* ghash.c, gscanner.c, glib.h: Mark the functions
g_hash_table_freeze, g_hash_table_thaw and thus
g_scanner_freeze_symbol_table and g_scanner_thaw_symbol_table
deprecated. They will issue an warning once, when compiled with
G_ENABLE_DEBUG. This fixes Bug #3883. For discussion see
http://mail.gnome.org/pipermail/gtk-devel-list/2000-April/003139.html
2000-07-19 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* configure.in, glib.h: glibconfig.h and glib.h now include files
outside of the extern "C" block. Makes some C++ compiler
happy. Reported by Denis Vakatov <vakatov@peony.nlm.nih.gov>.
* gmodule/gmodule.h: include glib.h before doing extern "C".
Makes some C++ compiler happy. Reported by Denis Vakatov
<vakatov@peony.nlm.nih.gov>.
2000-07-12 Havoc Pennington <hp@redhat.com>
* glib.h: #include <gerror.h>
* Makefile.am (include_HEADERS): Add gerror.h
(libglib_la_SOURCES): Add gbacktrace.c
* gbacktrace.c: Move g_on_error_query() in here (moved on the
server, so history is preserved)
* gerror.h: GError interface
* gerror.c: GError implementation replaces stuff that's now in
gbacktrace.c
2000-07-08 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
* glib.h (GLIB_VAR): Rename the GUTILS_C_VAR macro to GLIB_VAR.
* gunicode.h: Mark the g_utf8_skip array with GLIB_VAR.
* glib.def: Add two missing entry points.
Mon Jul 3 17:18:19 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
* glib.h: Comment g_get_codeset() out of the header file
temporarily. (Very similar to g_get_charset(), need
to resolve the two.)
Thu Jun 29 15:57:28 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
* NEWS: updated
* Makefile.am: added snapcheck target to go along with snapshot
* gstring.c glib.h (g_string_hash): Add g_string_hash to
go along with g_string_equal.
Tue Jun 27 12:40:23 EDT 2000 David A. Wheeler <dwheeler@dwheeler.com>
* glib.h: Added g_string_equal for comparing GStrings;
changed g_str_equal so it returns gboolean (instead of gint).
* gstring.c: Modified GString implementation to support embedded
ASCII NUL ('\0') characters, and implemented g_string_equal.
* testglib.c tests/string-test.c: Added tests for g_string_equal
and tests for proper handling of embedded ASCII NUL characters.
Fri Jun 23 17:20:26 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* glib.h: define gstring in terms of gchar*. this typedef reflects
the type name of the primitive G_TYPE_STRING in the gobject module.
Sat Jun 24 23:03:04 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* gtype.[hc]: provide G_TYPE_CHAR, G_TYPE_UCHAR, G_TYPE_BOOLEAN,
G_TYPE_INT, G_TYPE_UINT, G_TYPE_LONG, G_TYPE_ULONG, G_TYPE_FLOAT,
G_TYPE_DOUBLE and G_TYPE_STRING fundamental types.
added a GTypeValueTable* pointer to GTypeInfo structure for types
to implement GValue handling functions.
GTypeValueTable contains the following members:
value_init(): initialize a GValue structure.
value_free(): free GValue structure contents (optional).
value_copy(): copy one GValue contents to another GValue structure of
collect_type: varargs collection type for the first variable argument
to be collected by collect_value().
collect_value(): variable arguments collection function (optional).
lcopy_type: varargs collection type for the first variable argument
to be location copyied by lcopy_value().
lcopy_value(): variable arguments location copy function (optional).
g_type_value_table_peek(): new function to retrive the GTypeValueTable*
for a type node. ValueTables get inherited from parent types, unless
overridden through the GTypeInfo structure. internally, GTypeValueTable
support means an added overhead of one pointer per static or used
dynamic type node.
g_type_add_class_cache_func(): provide a cache_func/data pair to be
called prior to a type nodes last_unref() function, this can be used
to prevent premature class destruction. multiple installed cache_func()
will be chained upon last_unref() untill one of them returns TRUE.
the cache_func()s have to check the type id passed in to figure whether
they actually wants to cache the class of this type (since any types are
routed through the cache_func() chain).
g_type_remove_class_cache_func(): remove a previously installed
cache_func/data pair. the cache maintained by this function has to be
clear when calling g_type_remove_class_cache_func() to avoid leaks.
g_type_class_unref_uncached(): class unref function for cache_func()
implementations, unreferences a class omitting the cache chain (and
therefore unref->cache->unref->... loops).
* gvaluetypes.[hc]: provide the value setters/getters for the primitive
fundamental types boolean, char, uchar, int, uint, long, ulong, float,
double and string.
* gvalue.[hc]: provide G_TYPE_IS_VALUE() in terms of whether a
GTypeValueTable is provided for this type.
removed g_value_init_default(), g_value_validate(), g_value_defaults(),
g_value_set_default() and g_values_cmp() as these are supplied by the
GParamSpec API now.
moved g_values_exchange() into the "implementation details" section,
since it just provides the underlying functionality for
g_value_convert().
* gvaluecollector.h: renamed the varargs value container from
GParamCValue to GTypeCValue as the value collection methods are
supplied by the type system now.
G_PARAM_COLLECT_VALUE() and G_PARAM_LCOPY_VALUE() got renamed to
G_VALUE_COLLECT() and G_VALUE_LCOPY() and operate without a
GParamSpec structure now.
* genums.h: macros cleanups/fixes.
* genum.c: provide G_TYPE_ENUM and G_TYPE_FLAGS type
and assorted g_value_{s|g}et_{enum|flags}() implementations.
* gobject.[hc]:
provide G_IS_VALUE_OBJECT(), G_TYPE_OBJECT ValueTable methods
and g_value_{s|g}et_object().
* gparam.[hc]: reduced class to value_set_default(),
value_validate() and values_cmp(). also parameters now need to fill
in a GType value_type; field to indicate the GValue type they
are handling. provide g_param_value_set_default(),
g_param_value_defaults(), g_param_value_validate() and
g_param_values_cmp().
* gparamspecs.[hc]: got rid of the g_value_* functions and
the G_IS_VALUE_* macros. adapted param spec implementations
according to the GParamSpecClass changes.
Wed Jun 21 12:09:03 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
* gunicode.h gutf8.c guniprop.c gunidecomp.[ch] gunichartables.h
Makefile.am glib.h: Initial pass at adding unicode support
functions. A few things still need to be implemented, a bit
of cleanup needs to be done, tests need to be added, and
the docs need to be finished, but this should allow replacing
most or all use of libunicode.
Tue May 30 16:01:32 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
* glib.h gutils.c: Move the g_locale_get_codeset() up in the
header file to correspond to to comments about memory
management. Rename to g_get_codeset() to avoid
polluting the g_locale_* namespace, which probably
would have g_locale_get_codeset (GLocale *locale).
Add a doc comment.
Mon May 29 14:10:35 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
* gutils.c (g_locale_get_codeset): Add function to get the
codeset name for the current locale.
* configure.in acconfig.h: Add check for nl_langinfo(CODESET);
2000-05-13 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
* makefile.mingw.in
* tests/makefile.mingw.in
* build-dll: Rename makefile.cygwin(.in) to
makefile.mingw(.in), which better describes what it is. Move the
build of gmodule, gthread and gobject DLLs to makefiles in those
directories. Move resource file handling and build number bump to
build-dll, where it sits much cleaner.
* README.win32
* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Update accordingly.
* glib.h: Add G_PI, G_PI_2, G_PI_4, G_E, G_LN2, G_LN10 and
G_SQRT2. M_PI etc aren't necessarily in <math.h> in strict ISO C
implementations.
* glib.def: Add g_strcanon.
* gtree.c (g_tree_node_rotate_left): Remove unused variables.
* gwin32.c (g_win32_opendir): Remove unneeded statement.
gmodule:
* makefile.mingw.in: New file, with gmodule stuff
moved from ../makefile.mingw.in.
* Makefile.am: Add to EXTRA_DIST, and add rule to make makefile.mingw.
gobject:
* makefile.mingw.in
* gobject.def
* gobject.rc.in: New files, for Win32 (mingw) build.
* Makefile.am: Add to EXTRA_DIST. Add rules to produce the
corresponding non-*.in files.
* gtype.h: (Win32:) Mark _g_type_fundamental_last for
export/import from DLL.
gthread:
* makefile.mingw.in: New file, with gthread stuff moved from
../makefile.mingw.in.
* Makefile.am: Add to EXTRA_DIST, add rule to build makefile.mingw.
Fri Apr 28 23:54:35 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* setup things for a new sub-library libgobject:
* Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): added gobject
* glib-config.in: feature -lgobject.
* configure.in (AC_OUTPUT): generate gobject/Makefile.
* glib.m4 (AM_PATH_GLIB): feature gobject module.
* glib.spec.in: added %{prefix}/lib/libgobject-1.3.so.*
Fri Apr 28 21:41:49 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* glib.h: added G_STRLOC macro.
G_STRUCT_OFFSET(): signedness corrections.
(G_CSET_DIGITS): list 0-9.
* gscanner.c (g_scanner_config_template): use G_CSET_DIGITS.
* glib.h:
* gstrfuncs.c:
(g_strdown):
(g_strup):
(g_strreverse): return the modified string instead of void, so
calls to these functions can be nested.
(g_strcanon): new function, canonicalizes string according to
a given character set.
Fri Apr 28 19:45:16 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* gasyncqueue.c (g_async_queue_unref): get rid of an unused variable.
2000-04-28 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* gasyncqueue.c: New File implementing an asynchronous queue to be
used for asynchronous inter-thread communication.
* gthreadpool.c: New File implementing a thread pool to be used
for distributing work among several threads.
* glib.h: Added the type and function declarations for these two
types.
* tests/threadpool-test.c: New File implementing a test for the
thread pool. This also checks the asynchronous queue underlying
the thread pool.
* tests/Makefile.am: Changed accordingly.
2000-04-26 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* glib.h, gcache.c, gtree.c: Changed the 'value' parameter of
g_cache_remove from gpointer to gconstpointer. Dito for the 'key'
parameter of g_tree_lookup and g_tree_remove and the 'data'
parameter of g_tree_serach. This function now takes a function of
type GCompareFunc instead of GSearchFunc.
* glib.h: Removed declaration of GSearchFunc.
* gmem.c: s/GSearchFunc/GCompareFunc/.
2000-04-19 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* glib.h (G_TRYLOCK): Made the debugging G_TRYLOCK call also work
for compilers with funnt G_STMT_(START|END) macros.
* tests/thread-test.c: Implemented a check for that.
2000-04-19 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* gutils.c (g_getenv): Changed the win32 part of this function to
be thread safe and to make the returned environment string
persistent to match the UN*X behavior. This is again a response to
Bug #8983.
* glib.h (G_LOCK_NAME): Removed parentheses around the lock name,
as that seems to cause problems for some compilers and really
isn't necessary.
2000-04-18 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* glib.h, glist.h, gslist.h: Changed the 'data' parameters from
gpointer to gconstpointer for the functions
g_(list|slist)_(remove|find|find_custom|index), as they do not
change this parameter. This fixes bug #4836.
2000-04-18 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* glib.h: Changed comment for g_getenv to reflect, that the
returned memory must not be freed. Fixes Bug #8983.
2000-04-17 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* garray.c, glib.h: Added g_(array|ptr_array|byte_array)_sized_new
functions, that reserve a certain amount of memeory for the array
at creation time to avoid reallocation. Fixes bug #6707 from
Charles Kerr <ckerr@osserver1.nssl.noaa.gov>.
2000-04-17 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* glib.h, gqueue.c, tests/queue-test.c (main): Renamed
g_queue_create to g_queue_new in conformance to all other GLib
data types.
2000-03-21 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* glib.h, configure.in, gutils.h: always define G_GNUC_EXTENSION,
even when not needed by GLib. That's actually also the way, the
GLib reference manual describes that macro. Therefore I had to
remove the lonesome #include <glibconfig.h> in gutils.c, which
doesn't seem to be needed there however. This change should make
Ben Gertzfield <che@debian.org> happy.
* gutils.c: Furthermore two warnings in gutils.c were voided,
which crept in due to my last change.
2000-03-17 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* configure.in: Added the missing POSIX_NO_YIELD and
POSIX_NO_PRIORITIES warning messages.
* configure.in: Use AC_TRY_RUN instead of AC_TRY_LINK, to test for
real thread support. On solaris pthread_create can be linked to
even in -lc, but it doesn't work then.
* configure.in: Don't use priorities for threads, when the
minimal/maximal priorities couldn't be determined at configure
time.
* configure.in, gthread.c: Always define GSystemThread in
glibconfig.h to represent a system thread.
* configure.in: Do not use native recursive threads, when
possibe. We use some features, that they do not expose (namely the
depth counter).
* glib.h, gthread.c: Redefined GStaticRecMutex. The functions are
now implemented in a different way, which should be way
faster. Alsothere are now functions g_static_rec_mutex_unlock_full
and g_static_rec_mutex_lock_full to leave/enter a recursive mutex
completly.
* gthread.c (g_thread_self): Do not test the system_thread to be
non-zero to speed things up.
* gthread.c (g_mutex_init): Therefore set the system_thread of the
main thread here.
* tests/thread-test.c: Rerun all tests once again, but this time
we fool the system into thinking, that the available thread system
is not native, but userprovided.
* gthread/gthread-posix.c: Don't use priorities for threads,
when the minimal/maximal priorities couldn't be determined at
configure time.
* gthread/gthread-posix.c: Don't check for errors, when
setting the scope of a tread to system, as some posix
implementations can't do that and we don't want the thing to
fail because of that.
2000-03-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
* gwin32.c (g_win32_error_message): New function that returns the
message string for a Win32 error code.
* glib.h: Declare it.
* glib.def: Export it, plus g_node_copy.
* gmodule-win32.c: Call g_win32_error_message() to get the error
message strings.
* libgplugin_a.c
* libgplugin_b.c
* gmodule.c: Remove LibMain functions that were needed by LCC,
which is not a supported compiler.
* testgmodule.c (main): Test for G_MODULE_IMPL ==
G_MODULE_IMPL_WIN32, not G_OS_WIN32.
* gmoduleconf.h.win32: Remove LCC stuff from here, too.
Wed Mar 1 10:39:39 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* gslist.c (g_slist_reverse): minor optimization.
* testglib.c (g_node_test): added a couple of tests for
g_node_copy().
* glib.h:
* gnode.c (g_node_copy): new function to copy subtrees,
supplied by dbsears@ix.netcom.com.
changed iterator to walk the children list backwards, so
we get down from O(n^2) to O(n).
* gnode.c (g_node_first_sibling): applied patch from
dbsears@ix.netcom.com to optimize access if node->parent
is present.
* gutils.c (g_get_any_init): backed out HAVE_PW_GECOS check around
assignment of g_real_name, sicne HAVE_PW_GECOS is never defined and
thus breaks the original code.
* merged changes from 1.2.7.
Sat Feb 19 19:43:29 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* testgmodule.c (main): added test to check that not yet bound symbols
in shared libraries of the main module are retrievable, from David Gero.
Fri Jan 28 11:37:41 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
Bug #4156 - Changes vaguely modelled after Scott Gifford's patch
* gtimer.c (g_timer_elapsed): Never report negative times -
clip times to 0.
* gmain.c (g_timeout_prepare): Guard against unexpected
clock shifts by never setting a timeout of more than
data->interval msecs.
Thu Feb 17 12:53:44 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* gstring.c: changed g_str_hash() to a 31 bit version based on
a submission by Karl Nelson and hand optimized ad absurdum by
various people ;)
* gstring.c: applied patch from havoc for new gstring functions,
added some more sanity checks, coding style fixups.
2000-02-13 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>
* tests/string-test.c (main): Add tests for the new GString
features
* testglib.c (main): Add tests for the new GString features
* gstring.c (g_string_insert_len): New function; insert
a given length of string at a given position.
(g_string_append): reimplement in terms of g_string_insert_len
(g_string_append_len): new function
(g_string_insert_c): accept -1 for "pos" arg to mean "append"
(g_string_append_c): reimplement in terms of g_string_insert_c
(g_string_prepend): reimplement in terms of g_string_insert_len
(g_string_prepend_len): new function
(g_string_prepend_c): reimplement in terms of g_string_insert_c
(g_string_insert): reimplement in terms of g_string_insert_len
* glib.h: Declare g_string_insert_len, g_string_append_len,
g_string_prepend_len
Fri Feb 4 19:36:05 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* glib.h:
* gdataset.c: return stolen data from g_datalist_id_remove_no_notify()
and g_dataset_id_remove_no_notify() to avoid second lookup for common
use.
2000-02-01 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
* glib.h
* gstrfuncs.c (g_filename_to_utf8, g_filename_from_utf8): New
functions for conversion between UTF-8 and the encoding expected
by C runtime functions like open() and stat(), and returned by
readdir().
Implement them on Win32 where we use the system "ANSI" codepage,
which might be single-byte or double-byte. On Unix, just skip the
issue for now and provide dummy implementations that return a copy
of the argument.
* README.win32
* build-dll
* glib.def: Minor updates.
Wed Jan 26 05:24:38 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* glib.h:
* gmain.c: s/current_time/dispatch_time/ for the dispatch() handlers.
refetch the current time after invocation of poll() to cover up for
the time spent in that function call.
Fri Jan 21 10:18:24 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
* glib.h (G_N_ELEMENTS): Added G_N_ELEMENTS macro to determine
the number of elements in an array.
1999-11-16 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* acconfig.h, config.h.win32.in, configure.in: Renamed
GLIB_SIZEOF_PTHREAD_T to GLIB_SIZEOF_SYSTEM_THREAD to reflect
changed meaning.
* configure.in: Cope with systems, that have a pthread_t type,
that is not a pointer. Hint from Karl Nelson
<kenelson@ece.ucdavis.edu>. Define GLIB_SIZEOF_SYSTEM_THREAD to 4
for Solaris. Cope with systems, that have no default mutex
initialize, like obviously most DCE systems.
* glib.h, gthread.c: Changed the prototype of thread_create and
thread_self to return the system thread into provided memory
instead of a return value. This is necessary, as HPUX has a
pthread_t, that is bigger than the biggest integral type there.
* gthread.c: system_thread is no longer a pointer, but an memory
area of size GLIB_SIZEOF_SYSTEM_THREAD. Changed the
zeroinitialization and the tests for zeroness accordingly.
1999-11-01 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
* glib.h
* glib.def: Rename Win32-only functions from gwin_* to g_win32_*
to match the GLib naming conventions.
* gutils.c
* gwin32.c
* testglib.c
* makefile.{cygwin,msc}: Move the Win32-only functions to the new
file gwin32.c
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.

* 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.

* 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.

* 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.
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.
* 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.
