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.

i.e. gcc -mno-cygwin on cygwin (a.k.a. mingw32, using egcs-1.1.2).
* README.win32: Updated.
* build-dll makefile.cygwin tests/makefile.cygwin: New files.
* glib.h glib.def glibconfig.h.win32 makefile.msc: Slight updates.
* gmain.c: No need to include <fcntl.h> and <io.h> on Win32.
* gmain.c gutils.c testglib.c tests/string-test.c: Test for
NATIVE_WIN32, not _MSC_VER.
* gmutex.c: Must declare g_thread_functions_for_glib_use as
exported (using the GUTILS_C_VAR macro).
* gutils.c gmodule/libgplugin_[ab].c: LibMain not needed.
* gmodule/gmoduleconf.h.win32: Need underscore with gcc.
* gthread/gthread.c: With gcc on Win32, must use memcpy to assign
value of g_thread_functions_for_glib_use (?).
* makefile.msc tests/makefile.msc: Cosmetics.
1999-04-09 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* grand.c, tests/rand-test.c: New files to implement the Mersenne
Twister Pseudo Random Number Generator.
* glib.h, AUTHORS, Makefile.am, tests/Makefile.am: Changed
accordingly.
1999-03-31 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* gthread/gthread-posix.c: Use the right default arguments for the
construction of mutexes and conds for dce threads, these are
&pthread_(cond|mutex)attr_default instead of NULL. Hint from
D. Emilio Grimaldo Tunon <emilio_tunon@nl.compuware.com>.
1999-03-18 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* configure.in: added new AC_SUBST(GTHREAD_COMPILE_IMPL_DEFINES)
to hold various defines to get the right thread implementation on
different platforms. Also look in -ldce for pthread_create. Should
make it work on HP-UX 10.x.
* gthread/Makefile.am (INCLUDES): Added @GTHREAD_COMPILE_IMPL_DEFINES@.
1999-03-12 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* configure.in: Test for posix threads first, then for dce threads.
* gthread/gthread-posix.c (g_private_get_posix_impl): Fixed
typo for DCE implementation.
1999-03-11 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* configure.in: Revamped the thread configure stuff. Now dce
threads (old posix draft) are recogniced. This is necessary,
because dce threads are in fact working quite differently from
posix threads. Also changed the conditions for checking for MT
safe functions a bit, because G_THREADS_IMPL_NONE still have to
compile thread safe.
* gthread/gthread-posix.c: Now handle both dce and posix
threads. They are sufficently equal.
NOTE: Please do not commit my change to
glib-1-2/{acconfig.h,configure.in,config.h.win32} from 1999-03-03, as
the current change will take care of that too.

* *.[ch]: inserted additional note to look for ChangeLog and
AUTHORS file for a log of modifications.
1999-02-15 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* glib.h, glibconfig.h.win32, configure.in: Changed signature of
all g_static_mutex_* functions to take a pointer rather than the
struct itself. This is not an issue at the moment, because those
funcs are really macros, but is it un'G'ish and might fall on our
feet in the future.
* gthread/testgthread.c (test_mutexes): Use new signature of
g_static_mutex* functions.
1999-02-10 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* glib.h: s/G_LOCK_DECLARE/G_LOCK_DEFINE/ throuhout glib. Added
G_LOCK_EXTERN macro to declare a lock externally.
1999-02-08 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* configure.in, acconfig.h: Changed the test for getpwuid_r to
exclude those systems (i.e. IRIX), that set ENOSYS after the call.
Test, if pthread_getspecific is posix like or something different,
as on PCThreads.
* gthread/gthread-posix.c (g_private_get_posix_impl): Use the
HAVE_PTHREAD_GETSPECIFIC_POSIX macro to determine, which signature
to use for pthread_getspecific.
* README.win32: More text.
* config.h.win32 glibconfig.h.win32: Update to match the
corresponding generated files on Unix.
* makefile.msc: Update with new source files, and gthread
library. Use the compiler flag -MD instead of using -D_DLL and
"/nodefaultlib:libc msvcrt.lib" in the link phase.
* glib.def: Include new functions, drop removed ones.
* glib.h: Add comments about main loop and polling on Win32. (In
general, it's only for the GIMP's use.) Add Win32 IO Channel
functions. Remove the obsoleted old IO Channel stuff (which was
in #if 0 already).
* giowin32.c: New file.
* gmain.c: Include config.h, conditionalize <sys/time.h>
inclusion. Add g_poll implementation for Win32 (only for the
GIMP's needs for now, it's hard or even impossible to be as clean
and generic as on Unix). Implement g_get_current_time on Win32. If
threads aren't supported, don't try to wake up main thread's
loop. On Win32, use a semaphore and not a pipe to wake up the main
loop.
* gmessages.c: On Win32, allocate a console window if the standard
output handle is invalid before writing to stdout, and reopen stdout
to that console window.
* giochannel.c: Conditionalize unistd.h inclusion. Some indentation
cleanup.
* gstrfuncs.c: Include <signal.h>.
* gutils.c: On Win32, also check the HOMEDRIVE and HOMEPATH
environment variables.
* gmodule-dl.c gmodule-dld.c: In
_g_module_build_path, don't add the "lib" prefix and
".so" or ".sl" suffix if already there.
* gmodule-win32.c: Likewise for the ".dll" suffix.
* gthread-posix.c: Conditionalize <sys/time.h> inclusion.
1999-01-07 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* gutils.c (g_get_any_init): Here we must replace getpwuid by
getpwuid_r, but as I do not know how for now, I just made a FIXME
note ;-)
* gdate.c (g_date_set_time): localtime --> localtime_r to make it
thread safe.
* configure.in: We do not need to check for broken solaris mutex
intitializer any longer. Provide a macro to show the used thread
implementation. Not nice, but this is needed until thread support
is completed here inside glib.
* gthread/testgthread.c: conditionally compile according to the
G_THREADS_IMPL_??? macros.
(test_private_func): use rand_r instead of rand to make it
thread safe.
* configure.in: ditch whitespace before GLIB_SYSDEFS #includes,
the # needs to be in column 1
* gthread/testgthread.c: cleanups
* tests/node-test.c: #include unistd.h for exit()
-Yosh
1998-12-18 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* configure.in (have_threads): Changed the last pthread_cond_init
to pthread_attr_init.
1998-12-18 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* testgthread.c (new_thread): As a joinable thread seems to be the
default on posix, leave the explicit setting out, as it causes
problems on some older platforms.

giounix.c: s/g_main_poll_add/g_main_remove_add/g
s/g_main_poll_remove/g_main_remove_poll/g
s/g_main_poll_add_unlocking/g_main_add_unlocking_poll/g
(from Tim Janik)
* gthread-posix.c: use g_free in mutex_free (from Tim Janik)
Thu Dec 17 03:38:57 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* Makefile.am: -DG_LOG_DOMAIN="GThread", we don't need an extern
variable for that (noticed by Joel Becker <jlbec@ocala.cs.miami.edu>)
Wed Dec 16 03:16:58 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* configure.in: version bump to 1.1.8, binary age 0, interface age 0.
* glib.h: changed g_lock() to G_LOCK(), g_unlock() to G_UNLOCK() and
g_trylock() to G_TRYLOCK(), since these are macros that expand to
nothing with --disable-threads.
changed G_LOCK_DEFINE() to G_LOCK_DECLARE() and introduced
G_LOCK_DECLARE_STATIC() to achive the results of static G_LOCK_DECLARE().
changed semantics of g_thread_supported to g_thread_supported() so it
can be used as a function like g_module_supported(). the actuall
definition is still a macro that expands into a variable for
performance reasons though.
various indentation and coding style cleanups.
* configure.in: added --enable-threads that defaults to yes.
* gmutex.c: changed tests g_thread_supported to g_thread_supported (),
changed variable settings of g_thread_supported
to g_threads_got_initialized.

* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): updated.
* testgthread.c, gthread-*.c: Changed private to private_key to
avoid problems when compiling with under C++.

s/g_mutex_functions_for_glib_use/g_thread_functions_for_glib_use/
* ChangeLog: from now on there is an extra ChangeLog for gthread
branch. See the ChangeLog for details of the changes.
In brief overview:
- The set of threading functions can be set
- A default implementation is provided in -lgthread
- All static data structures are locked using these
functions if g_thread_init() is called.
