* configure.in: Determine the suffix of the shared librarries for
this system. This is done analogous to
ltconfig.sh. G_MODULE_SUFFIX in glibconfig.h is set to either
"sl", "dll", or (most often) "so".
* tests/Makefile.am, tests/module-test.c,
tests/libmoduletestplugin_a.c, tests/libmoduletestplugin_b.c:
Added new testcase for gmodule. This is mostly copied from
gmodule/testgmodule.c, but unlike that is is quiet. (Why BTW are
some tests that verbose, not to say loquacious...)
* gmodule.c: Make g_module_open more tolerant wrt to the module
name. First it tries to open the module as named, if that fails,
it checks, whether it is a libtool archive and parses it, if that
fails it appends the systems shared library suffix
(i.e. ".so") (if not already found) and tries again and if that
fails it tries to append the ".la" libtool suffix (if not already
found) and parses it.
* gmodule.c: Lock recursive mutex during most module functions for
safety.
* gmodule-dl.c: Return an error from _g_module_symbol only, if
dlerror says so. All other functions return an error as well, if
dlerror returns NULL.
* testgmodule.c: Thanks to the above change the #ifdefs have
vanished.
* glib/glib-sections.txt: Added G_MODULE_SUFFIX.
* glib/tmpl/modules.sgml: Updated.
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.
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.
2000-03-04 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.
Wed Feb 24 00:08:42 CST 1999 Shawn T. Amundson <amundson@gtk.org>
* *.[ch]: inserted additional note to look for ChangeLog and
AUTHORS file for a log of modifications.
Tue Oct 27 03:00:50 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* glib.h: removed dummy structure definitions for struct _GCache,
_GTree, _GTimer, _GMemChunk, _GListAllocator and _GStringChunk.
* gutils.c: implement glib's inline functions _after_ all include
statements have been processed.
removed Tor's MAXPATHLEN check since there already was one supplied
further down in this file.
(LibMain): special cased the #ifdef __LCC__ case for NATIVE_WIN32,
since lcc maybe used on other platforms as well. why in hell is this
stuff required?
(g_get_any_init): for windows, if the user name is supplied, use it as
realname also.
in general, if there is no homedir specified, use the tmpdir that
we already figured.
* gtimer.c (g_timer_elapsed): changed a g_assert() statement to
g_return_if_fail().
* applied glib-tml-981020-0.patch for WIN32 portability, added some
comments and g_return_if_fail() statements, minor indentation fixes.
ChangeLog entry from Tor Lillqvist is appended.
* glib.h (struct dirent): use lower case structure members.
* glib.h:
* makefile.lcc:
* makefile.msc:

1998-10-20: Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
* README.win32 glib.def gmodule.def
* glibconfig.h.win32 gmodule/gmoduleconf.h.win32:
New files for the Windows port. The .def files list exported
symbols for the Microsoft linker and compatibles.
* configure.in:
Added checks for some platform-dependent headers: pwd.h sys/param.h
sys/select.h sys/time.h sys/times.h unistd.h, and the function lstat.
* gerror.c:
Conditionalized inclusion of system-dependent headers. Changes
for Windows: no gdb to do a stack trace. Just call abort().
* glib.h:
Changes for Windows:
Added macros G_DIR_SEPARATOR, G_DIR_SEPARATOR_S for
platform-dependent file name syntax elements. Added macros
G_SEARCHPATH_SEPARATOR, G_SEARCHPATH_SEPARATOR_S for
platform-dependent search path syntax conventions.
Added pragmas for Microsoft C to make it more pedantic.
Marked GLib's global variables for export from DLL.
Added the function g_strescape that escapes backslashes.
Added functions g_path_is_absolute and g_path_skip_root to
handle platform-dependent file name syntax.
Added the function g_getenv that expands environment variables
that contain references to other environment variables, as is
typical on Windows NT.
Added the GIOChannel structure which is used to encapsulate the
IPC mechanism used by the GIMP's plug-ins, and possibly other
things later. On Unix a GIOChannel encapsulates just a file
descriptor. On Windows it contains a file handle from _pipe() and a
few other things related to the implementation of gdk_input_add
and GIMP plug-in communication. Subject to change.
Removed duplicate declarations of the version variables.
For the Microsoft compiler, declare own implementation of
ftruncate and the <dirent.h> functions.
* gmem.c:
Define a symbolic name for the profiling table size.
* gmessages.c:
Conditionalized inclusion of unistd.h. On Windows, output using
stdio to stdout.
* gscanner.c:
Conditionalized inclusion of unistd.h. Added changes for
Microsoft C. Added CR to the skipped character set. Added small
workaround for MSC compiler bug in g_scanner_cur_value.
* gstrfuncs.c:
Added the function g_strescape, which escapes the backslash
character. Needed especially when printing Windows filenames.
* gtimer.c:
Conditionalized inclusion of unistd.h and sys/time.h. Added
implementations for Windows.
* gutils.c:
Conditionalized inclusion of platform-dependent headers. Use
the platform-independent file name syntax macros.
Conditionalize code on platform-dependent features. Added the
functions g_path_is_absolute g_path_skip_root and g_getenv.
Added the GIOChannel-related functions. Added
compiler-dependent Unix compatibility functions for Windows.
* makefile.lcc makefile.msc:
New files. Compiler-specific makefiles for LCC-Win32 and
Microsoft C. Only Microsoft C is actually supported currently.
* testglib.c:
Added pathname check cases for Windows. Added workaround for
bug in the Microsoft runtime library. Improved some tests a bit.
Tue Oct 27 04:00:11 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* testgmodule.c (main): changed the #ifdef WIN32 test to NATIVE_WIN32,
this needs to be more constistent throughout the code, do we go for
NATIVE_WIN32 or WIN32?
* gmodule.c (LibMain): special cased the #ifdef __LCC__ case for
NATIVE_WIN32, since lcc maybe used on other platforms as well.
* libgplugin_a.c (LibMain):
* libgplugin_b.c (LibMain):
likewise. not sure i like this special requirement for lcc in here.
* gmodule-dl.c (_g_module_build_path):
feature empty "" directories and prepend the module name with "lib".
* gmodule-dld.c (_g_module_build_path):
* gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path):
feature empty "" directories.
* we need some more magic in the _g_module_build_path variants
so we don't append/prepend lib and .so, .sl or .dll for those names
that already contain it.
* applied patch from Tor Lillqvist for g_module_build_path() and
windows support.
1998-10-20: Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
* gmodule/gmodule-win32.c:
New file.
* gmodule/gmodule.c gmodule/gmodule.h:
Added the funcion g_module_build_path that builds the path to
a module file, decorating the name according to the system's
conventions. Added the Windows implementation.
* gmodule/libgplugin_a.c gmodule/libgplugin_b.c:
Added LibMain for LCC-Win32.
* gmodule/testgmodule.c:
Handle Windows dll names.
Mon Aug 24 02:08:56 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* glib.h:
* gstring.c:
* gstrfuncs.c:
(g_vsprintf): removed this function which was not publically
exported in glib.h. to export it, it should have been named
differently in the first place, since its semantics differ from
vsprintf(). apart from that, it was a possible cause for
problems since it worked on a previously allocated memory area and
was used in a lot places of glib. exporting it would have been a
guararant for problems with threaded programs.
(g_printf_string_upper_bound): exported this function to return
a string size, guarranteed to be big enough to hold the fully
expanded format+args string. added 'q', 'L' and 'll' flag handling.
in fact, the newly allocated area is in most cases much bigger than
required.
(g_strdup_vprintf()): new function returning a newly allocated string
containing the contents of *format and associated args (size is
calculated with g_printf_string_upper_bound()).
(g_strdup_printf): new function which wraps g_strdup_vprintf().
* configure.in: check for va_copy() or __va_copy() alternatively.
check whether va_lists can be copyied by value.
* glib.h: provide a definition for G_VA_COPY.
* glib.h:
* gmessages.c:
(g_logv):
(g_vsnprintf):
pass va_lists by value, not by reference, since this causes problems
on platforms that implement va_list as as arrays. internaly, use
G_VA_COPY (new_arg, org_arg); va_end (new_arg); to produce a second
va_list variable, if multiple passes are required. changed all
callers.
* glib.h:
* gerror.h:
renamed g_debug() to g_on_error_query(), cleaned up a bit.
renamed g_stack_trace() to g_on_error_stack_trace() since both
functions cluttered different namespaces.
there is an appropriate comment in glib.h now that explains the
unix and gdb specific dependencies of both functions.
removed g_attach_process().
g_on_error_stack_trace() should probably be handled with caution,
i've seem several different linux versions (2.0.x) become unstable
after invokation of this function.
Sun Aug 16 20:28:27 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* version bump to 1.1.3, binary age 0, interface age 0.
* glib.h: be nice to platforms that don't have gint64 and don't
issue #warning on every compilation. since glib doesn't require
gint64 itself, packages that need gint64 should test for this
themselves.
* glib.h:
* gutils.c: added a new function g_vsnprintf().
Fri Aug 14 16:41:53 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* glib.h: added static inline functions for bit mask tests:
g_bit_nth_lsf, g_bit_nth_msf and g_bit_storage.
Fri Aug 13 14:23:37 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* glib.h:
* gmessages.c:
revised the message handling system, which is now based on a new
mechanism g_log*. most of the assertment macros got adapted to
feature the new g_log() call with an additional specification of
the log level in a preprocessor macro G_LOG_DOMAIN. if G_LOG_DOMAIN
is undefined upon the includion of glib.h, it'll be defined with a
value of (NULL) and thus preserves the original bahaviour for
warning and error messages. the message handler setting functions
for g_warning, g_error and g_message are only provided for backwards
compatibility and might get removed somewhen.
* Makefile.am: feature the G_LOG_DOMAIN macro to set the log domain
to "GLib" upon compilation. we currently have to add this definition
to the DEFS variable.
* testglib.c: we need an ugly #undef G_LOG_DOMAIN at the start
of this file currently, since automake doesn't support per target
_CFLAGS yet.
* glib.h: changed some gints to gbooleans, made a few const corrections,
removed some superfluous G_STMT_START{}G_STMT_END wrappers, added some
in other required places.
* gnode.c:
(g_node_prepend):
(g_node_insert_before):
(g_node_insert):
(g_node_append_data):
(g_node_prepend_data):
(g_node_insert_data_before):
(g_node_insert_data):
(g_node_append):
return (node), so these macros/functions can be usefully chained with
g_node_new().
[GModule]
Fri Aug 14 02:24:39 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* Makefile.am: feature the G_LOG_DOMAIN macro to set the log domain
to "GModule" upon compilation. we currently have to add this definition
to the DEFS variable.
* testgmodule.c: we need an ugly #undef G_LOG_DOMAIN at the start
of this file currently, since automake doesn't support per target
_CFLAGS yet.
