2000-11-05 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>
* gerror.c (g_propagate_error): Free the src error if the dest
location is NULL - I'm pretty sure that's what this function was
supposed to do.
2000-11-05 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>
* glib/tmpl/error_reporting.sgml: fixes
2000-11-02 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* glib/tmpl/async_queues.sgml, glib/glib-sections.txt: Added
documentation for asynchronous queues.
* gasyncqueue.c: Added inline documentation for asyncronous
queues.
2000-10-30 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
* configure.in: Check for mkstemp.
* gutils.c (g_mkstemp): New function. If HAVE_MKSTEMP, just call
it, otherwise use code lifted from glibc.
* gutils.h: Declare it.
* glib.def: Here, too.
2000-10-30 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* gcache.h, gcache.c, ghash.h, ghash.c, grel.c, grel.h, gtypes.h:
Introduced new function type GEqualFunc to return TRUE for equal
params. This is now used instead of GCompareFunc (which should
work akin to strcmp) here. This kind of fixes Bug #14412. Note
that technically GCompareFunc and GEqualFunc are still the same
types, as gint == gboolean.
* ghash.h, gutils.c: g_int_equal and g_direct_equal now return
gboolean to be really become GEqualFunc.
* gscanner.c, testglib.c, tests/hash-test.c: Some tiny changes to
follow the above change.
2000-10-24 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>
* gmarkup.h, gmarkup.c: New module to parse a simple
markup language
* Makefile.am: add gmarkup.h, gmarkup.c
* tests/Makefile.am: add markup-test
* gstring.h (g_string_new_len): new function to create a string
with a length
(g_string_new): avoid a gratuitous realloc
2000-10-26 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* gstrfuncs.c (g_strsplit): When the string is ended by a
delimiter, return an extra empty string just like for a delimiter
at the start of the string. This makes the function behave more
consitent and also fixes Bug #15026.
Tue Oct 24 22:09:14 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* glib-object.h: added newly added gobject/ headers.
* gmesage.c: print g_message() output to stderr instead of stdout.
Wed Oct 25 20:27:02 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* gtype.c (g_type_free_instance): for the moment, freeing object
structures will fill their memory portion with 0xAA. there's a
FIXME there, remove this line at a later point.
Tue Oct 24 23:10:26 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* glib-genmarshal.1:
* glib-genmarshal.c: added publically installed marshaller generator.
* gtype.h: added G_TYPE_INSTANCE_GET_INTERFACE() to retrive a certain
interface VTable from instances.
Mon Oct 23 08:28:15 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* gobject.[hc]: new functions for closure maintenance:
(g_object_watch_closure): maintain validity of the object and
the closure for objects that are used as data part of a closure.
(g_cclosure_new_object): convenience function to create C closures
that have an object as data argument.
(g_closure_new_object): convenience function to create closures
that have an object as data argument.
* gclosure.[hc]: implementation of GClosure mechanism.
a closure is basically an encapsulation of a callback function
and its environment. ideally, most places supporting callback
functions will simply take a GClosure* pointer and thus unify
callback environments wrg destroy notification etc.
GClosure provides destroy notifiers for arbitrary data pointers,
reference counting, invalidation notification (it can be invalidated
which is merely a deactivate state) and a marshallinbg abstraction.
GCClosure is also provided in these files, they present a specialized
GClosure implementation for C language callbacks.
* genum.c: macro cleanups.
* gboxed.[hc]: new files, for boxed type abstraction.
(g_boxed_copy): copy a boxed structure
(g_boxed_free): free a boxed structure
(g_value_set_boxed):
(g_value_get_boxed): standard GValue functions for boxed types
(g_boxed_type_register_static): convenience function for easy
introduction of new G_TYPE_BOXED derivatives.
* gparam.[hc]: introduced g_param_type_register_static(), a short hand
for creation of new GParamSpec derived types.
* gtype.[hc]: many fixes, introduced ability to flag individual
type nodes as ABSTRACT upon registration, added value_peek_pointer()
to the value table to peek at GValue contents as a pointer for types
that support this. fixed up GValue checks.
* gvalue.[hc]: added g_value_fits_pointer() and g_value_get_as_pointer()
to peek at the value contents as pointer.
* *.[hc]: adaptions to type macro fixes and changes in the type
registration API.
* many const corrections over the place.
Sat Oct 21 02:49:56 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* gtype.c (g_type_conforms_to): this function basically behaves like
and is_a check, except that it _additionally_ features interfaces
for instantiatable types. enforce this in the second branch as well
(`type' conforms_to `type') even if `type' is not an interface type.
Fri Oct 20 15:31:04 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* gvaluetypes.[hc]: added G_TYPE_POINTER implementation from jrb.
* gtype.[hc]:
* gobject.c:
* gvaluetypes.c: added GTypeValueTable.value_peek_pointer and
suitable implementations of this for G_TYPE_STRING, G_TYPE_OBJECT
and G_TYPE_POINTER.
Mon Aug 21 04:13:37 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* gbsearcharray.[hc]: long standing needed generic implementation
of a binary searchable, sorted and dynamically sized array.
2000-10-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
* makefile.msc.in: Pass -DGSPAWN_HELPER when building it. Link
with user32.lib.
* gspawn-win32.c
* gfileutils.c: Make them compile with picky MSVC.
* gwin32.h: New file. Move Win32-only stuff that isn't related to
GIOChannels here from giochannel.h.
* Makefile.am: Add it here.
* giochannel.h: Move stuff to gwin32.h.
* glib.h: On Win32, include gwin32.h.
2000-10-16 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
* giowin32.c (reader_thread): Some more debugging output.
(g_io_channel_win32_poll): Remove unused vars.
* gfileutils.c: Changes for Win32, with no unistd.h and no
S_ISLNK().
* gspawn-win32.c: Implementation of the g_spwan_* functions for
Win32. Due to the general non-Unixness of Win32, much of the
functionality that is relatively clean to implement on Unix, is
hard to do on Win32. We must use a separate helper program to
change directory, close extra file descriptors, redirect the std
ones, as needed, and only then start the child process. No child
process pid can be returned, unfortunately. Or if we used
CreateProcess directly, it probably could. (Now we use the spawnv*
functions from msvcrt.)
* glib.def: Add new entry points.
* glib.def
* giowin32.c: Remove g_io_channel_win32_wait_for_condition(),
g_io_channel_win32_poll() subsumes it.
* gbacktrace.h: G_BREAKPOINT for MSVC (on the ix86).
* gwin32.c (g_win32_getlocale): Use "sp" for
LANG_CROATIAN+SUBLANG_SERBIAN_LATIN.
* makefile.{mingw,msc}.in (glib_OBJECTS): Add new files.
Add gspawn-win32-helper.exe rule.
* tests/makefile.{mingw,msc}.in (TESTS): Add shell-test and
spawn-test.
* tests/spawn-test.c: (run_tests): On Win32, don't try to run
/bin/sh, but ipconfig (no special significance in choosing that,
just a program that outputs something to stdout).
gmodule:
* Makefile.am (BUILT_EXTRA_DIST): New variable.
(dist-hook): Handle $(BUILT_EXTRA_DIST).
gobject:
* Makefile.am (BUILT_EXTRA_DIST): New variable.
(dist-hook): Handle $(BUILT_EXTRA_DIST).
(*): Remove traces of @STRIP_{BEGIN,END}@.
gthread:
* Makefile.am (BUILT_EXTRA_DIST): New variable.
(dist-hook): Handle $(BUILT_EXTRA_DIST).
docs/reference:
'make distcheck' fixes.
* glib/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add $(DOC_MODULE)-decl.txt.
(html): Run 'gtkdoc-fixxref' in $(srcdir).
(dist-check-gtkdoc): Add missing quote.
(dist-hook): Copy in dependency order, so that none of the
makerules are fired in a tarball build.
* gobject/Makefile.am: Likewise.
toplevel:
Remove need for acconfig.h, and misc. cleanups.
* acglib.m4 (GLIB_SIZEOF): Add 'autoheader' comment to
AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED.
(GLIB_BYTE_CONTENTS): Likewise.
* configure.in: Add 'autoheader' comments to all AC_DEFINE(...)
and AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED(...) lines.
Replace AC_MSG_CHECKING/AC_CACHE_VAL with AC_CACHE_CHECK.
(AM_PROG_LIBTOOL): Move after AC_PROG_CC.
* acconfig.h: Empty out.
* Makefile.am (BUILT_EXTRA_DIST): New variable. List 'dist'able
files that are created in the builddir.
(dist-hook): Handle those files.
(libglib_1_3_la_SOURCES): Remove @ALLOCA@. @ALLOCA@ should only
be used in an _LDADD or _LIBADD, since it expands (if necessary)
to 'alloca.o'.
* tests/Makefile.am (BUILT_EXTRA_DIST): New variable.
(dist-hook): Handle $(BUILT_EXTRA_DIST).
2000-10-13 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* grand.c: Added inline documentation.
* docs/refernce/glib/glib-sections.txt: Added misc items.
* docs/refernce/glib/tmpl/random_numbers.sgml: Documentation for
the random number generator.
2000-10-13 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* gtypes.h, gnode.h, gutils.h: Readded GFreeFunc,
g_node_insert_after and g_find_program_in_path resp., which
mysteriously disappeared during the glib.h dissection.
2000-10-12 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* configure.in: define GLIB_HAVE_ALLOCA_H instead of including
alloca.h in glibconfig.h, GLIB_HAVE_ALLOCA_H is used in glib.h.
* configure.in (GLIB_MAJOR_VERSION): Use GLIB_DIVERT_BEFORE_HELP
instead of AC_DIVERT_PUSH(),AC_DIVERT_POP.
(AC_CHECK_HEADERS): Remove redundant AC_DEFINE(HAVE_...).
(REALLOC_0_WORKS): Move AC_DEFINE outside AC_CACHE_VAL.
(dlopen): Quote nested AC_CHECK_... calls.
* acglib.m4 (GLIB_TR_SH, GLIB_TR_CPP): Utility macros copied from
beta autoconf 2.50.
(GLIB_DIVERT_BEFORE_HELP): New macro that works both with autoconf
2.13 and beta autoconf 2.50.
(GLIB_SIZEOF, GLIB_BYTECONTENTS): Use GLIB_TR_*.
2000-10-09 Havoc Pennington <hp@redhat.com>
* Makefile.am, tests/Makefile.am: Add new files.
* tests/spawn-test.c, tests/shell-test.c: new tests for
the shell/spawn stuff
* gutils.c (g_find_program_in_path): convert a relative
program name into an absolute pathname to an existing
executable
* gspawn.h, gspawn.c: New fork/exec API
* gshell.h, gshell.c: Shell-related utilities, at the moment
simply routines to parse argv and quote/unquote strings
* guniprop.c (g_unichar_isspace): Return TRUE for the
ASCII space characters isspace() returns TRUE for.
* gfileutils.c (g_file_get_contents): Convenience function
to slurp entire file into a string and return it. Partially
written by Joel Becker.
(g_file_test): file test function
2000-10-06 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
* tests/gio-test.c (main): Fix the Win32-only code to use current
API, g_io_channel_win32_make_pollfd() and g_io_channel_win32_poll().
2000-10-06 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
* makefile.msc.in: Revamp to be like makefile.mingw.in, make
the MSVC build actually work again.
* gmodule/makefile.msc.in
* gobject/makefile.msc.in
* gthread/makefile.msc.in: New files, like their mingw counterparts.
* gmodule/Makefile.am
* gobject/Makefile.am
* gthread/Makefile.am: Make and distribute them.
* */makefile.mingw.in: Allow override of GLib version number from
the build/win32/module.defs file.
* glib.def: Add new entry point.
Fixes from Hans Breuer:
* glib.h (struct DIR): Keep the last readdir result cached inside
the DIR struct, to enable several DIRs being open simultaneously.
* gwin32.c (g_win32_readdir): Use the above instead of static.
* giowin32.c (g_io_channel_win32_make_pollfd): Insert cast to keep
MSVC happy.
2000-10-05 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* glib.h: Changed alloca stuff a bit: when we have a working
alloca.h, we're not messing with alloca any further. Should fix a
bug reported by Bernd Demian <wega@csc-dd.de>.
2000-09-30 Martin Baulig <baulig@suse.de>
* configure.in (HAVE_THREADS): New automake conditional.
* Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Only compile the gthread subdirectory if we
actually have threads.
2000-09-29 Jonathan Blandford <jrb@redhat.com>
* gnode.c (g_node_insert_after): Added function to keep symetry
with g_node_insert_before.
2000-09-29 Jonathan Blandford <jrb@redhat.com>
* glib/tmpl/trees-nary.sgml: Add g_node_insert_after().
2000-09-30 Martin Baulig <baulig@suse.de>
* configure.in (HAVE_THREADS): New automake conditional.
* Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Only compile the gthread subdirectory if we
actually have threads.
2000-09-29 Martin Baulig <baulig@suse.de>
* Makefile.am (pkgconfigdir): Set this to `$(libexecdir)/pkgconfig';
this is the directory where pkg-config actually looks.
* *.pc.in: Made the pkg-config scripts actually work.
2000-09-29 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* configure.in, glib.h: Added errorcheck mutexes. These are
activated through the preprocessor symbol
G_ERRORCHECK_MUTEXES. Need to add an extra word to StaticMutex in
order to achieve this. g_(static_)mutex_* functions instrument the
mutex operations with mutex name and location, when compiled with
-DG_ERRORCHECK_MUTEXES. g_thread_init activates the errorcheck
mutexes, when compiled with -DG_ERRORCHECK_MUTEXES.
* gthread/gthread-impl.c: Added errorcheck mutexes. New
exported function
g_thread_init_with_errorcheck_mutexes, which is called instead of
g_thread_init, when compiled with -DG_ERRORCHECK_MUTEXES. New
static functions
g_mutex_(new|lock|trylock|unlock|free)_errorcheck_impl to
implement errorcheck mutexes.
* gthread/gthread-posix.impl.c, gthread/gthread-solaris-impl.c:
Define the size of a mutex.
2000-09-28 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>
* glib.h (GThreadPriority): fix indentation
(GConvertError): generic error is conventionally called
_FAILED rather than _OTHER, at least at the moment,
according to GError docs in docs/reference.
* gconvert.c: s/_OTHER/_FAILED/
2000-09-28 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* configure.in: Adjusted the test for an unimplemented
getpwuid_r. Info from Michael Pruett. This is just a forward
merge from glib-1-2.
2000-09-28 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* configure.in: Moved determination of G_THREAD_FLAGS before
G_THREAD_LIBS. Check for UnixWare systems and set the right cflags
and libs there (it needs -Kthread for the native compiler and
-pthread for gcc). Thanks to Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>
for the info.
* configure.in: Fail immediately, when no thread library is found,
instead of continuing searching for rt libs etc. Changed almost
all occurances of $enable_threads to $have_threads, as that's,
what we want.
* tests/threadpool-test.c: Define vars inside the guard to avoid
warnings.
2000-09-28 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* configure.in, tests/type-test.c: Some platforms support 64 bit
'long long', but you can not printf or scanf them. In that case,
don't define G_G{UINT|INT}64_FORMAT. Changed the type-test program
to reflect that.
2000-09-28 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* gutils.c (g_get_current_dir): max_len can't be initialized
statically as it might call a function. So do it at first call.
2000-09-21 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* configure.in: The last released automake (1.4) still requires
AM_PROG_LIBTOOL instead of AC_PROG_LIBTOOL, so use that for the
time being.
2000-09-19 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* acconfig.h, configure.in, gutils.c: Test for the existence of
getcwd, and use it only when found.
* glib.h: Only use the gcc-variable-macro-argument-extension for
gcc >= 2.4. Both patches from Jonas Oberg <jonas@gnu.org>.
