* glib/gmem.c (g_allocator_new): Don't return a pointer to
a const struct, since apps expect to be able to modify it.
(#324179, J. Ali Harlow)
Tue Dec 13 10:13:32 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
* glib/gatomic.h: added g_atomic_pointer_set() and g_atomic_int_set()
for systems where the initialization of atomic variables requires a
write memory barrier.
2005-12-09 Alexander Larsson <alexl@redhat.com>
* glib/glist.h:
* glib/gslist.h:
Use G_GNUC_WARN_UNUSED_RESULT on list functions that return
the whole list.
* glib/gasyncqueue.c:
- Call g_queue_insert_sorted() instead of duplicating the code.
- Call g_queue_sort() instead of duplicating the code.
- Invert sort function results to make sure the same sort function
gives the same results across glist, gslist, gqueue and
gasyncqueue.
* tests/asyncqueue-test.c:
- Updated the sort function to reflect the example in the
documentation for gasyncqueue.c.
2005-12-07 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
* glib-gettextize.in: Look up prefix at run-time on Win32,
assuming the standard directory structure with glib-gettextize in
$prefix/bin.
2005-12-06 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/gmem.h: Exempt GTK+ from the mem chunk deprecation, since
we need GTK+ 2.8 to compile against GLib 2.10.
2005-12-05 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT):
* tests/gobject/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Set
MALLOC_CHECK_ and MALLOC_PERTURB_
* tests/run-collate-tests.sh: Run the collation tests explicitly
in en_US locale. (#320463)
* docs/reference/glib/glib-sections.txt:

- Added support for sorting async queues by with _push_sorted(),
_push_sorted_unlocked(), _sort() and _sort_unlocked() (#323047).
* tests/Makefile.am:
* tests/asyncqueue-test.c:
- Added test case for gasyncqueue.c
Mon Dec 5 15:53:20 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
* glib/gslice.c: implement chain walking for arbitrary ->next pointer
offsets in g_slice_free_chain_with_offset() based on a patch by behdad
in bug 323178. moved time consuming logic from g_slice_free() out of
the inner loop, so g_slice_free_chain_with_offset() provides a real
performance benefit over g_slice_free1() now.
* glib/gslice.h: renamed g_slice_free_chain() to
g_slice_free_chain_with_offset(). implemented g_slice_free_chain() as
a type-safe macro as suggested in bug 323178.
simplified the macro implementation of g_slice_free() and implemented
it in a type safe manner for all compliers as suggested by Morten
Welinder <mortenw@gnome.org>.
* glib/gmain.c:
* glib/glist.c:
* glib/gslist.c:

__sync builtin without _si or _di suffix. (#321229,
Stanislav Brabec, patch by Andreas Schwab)
2005-12-04 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
Handle multiple user names with the same UID better.
(#319535, Laszlo Peter)
* glib/gutils.c (g_get_any_init_do): When determining user
data, first look up $LOGNAME. If the UID doesn't match
getuid(), fall back to the current behaviour of looking
up the user data based on getuid().
2005-12-04 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/gmacros.h (G_GNUC_WARN_UNUSED_RESULT): Add a macro
to make gcc warn if a function result is ignored. (#145466,
Arjan van de Ven, Alex Larsson)
* glib/gmem.h: Add the new attribute to g_realloc and
g_try_realloc.
2005-12-03 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>

fix the permissions of the created temp file. (#321318,
Alexis S. L. Carvalho)
2005-12-02 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/gspawn.c:
* configure.in: Remove support for Solaris threads.
(#136971, Sebastian Wilhelmi, patch by Andrew Paprocki)
Fri Dec 2 13:08:58 2005 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* glib/gslice.h (g_slice_free): reworked GCC-specific type-safe macro
variant into something less verbose, but digestible for gcc-3.4.
Fri Dec 2 10:55:07 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
* tests/slice-test.c: extended to perform the benchmarking on the old
memchunk code if 'O' is selected.
* tests/memchunks.c: new file which contains the old GLib mem chunks
implementation with prefix old_mem_chunk_.
* tests/Makefile.am: added memchunks.c
Fri Dec 2 00:16:59 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
* glib/gslice.c: improved gettimeofday() timer resolution by maintaining
acceptable load distribution of the syscall.
(allocator_get_magazine_threshold): reduce minimum/single-thread magazine
sizes to approximately page_size/2.5 to avoid excessive startup allocations.
Fri Dec 2 00:16:59 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
* glib/gslice.c: improved gettimeofday() timer resolution by maintaining
acceptable load distribution of the syscall.
(slab_allocator_free_chunk): reduce minimum/single-thread magazine sizes
to approximately page_size/2.5 to avoid excessive startup allocations.
Thu Dec 1 17:32:46 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
* glib/gslice.[hc]: new slice allocator implementation.
* tests/slice-test.c: added random slice allocation test.
* glib/gthread.[hc]: removed newly added private thread mem API.
* glib/gthreadinit.h:
* glib/gmessages.c:
* glib/gthread.c:
* glib/gmem.c: divided glib threading initialisation into three phases,
initialisation where private keys and messaging are not available (only
needed by gmem.c), initialisation without messaging but private keys
available (gslice.c, gmessage.c), and full fledged initialisers that
server the rest of glib. initialisation functions got renamed to reflect
the limitations of their corresponding phases.
* glib/gmem.c: removed memchunk code, defer allocations to
g_slice_* instead.
* glib/gmem.[hc]: removed g_slice_* skeletons.
* glib/glib.symbols: added g_slice_* symbols.
* configure.in: check for availability of posix_memalign(3), memalign(3)
and valloc(3).
* glib/Makefile.am: added gslice.[hc].
2005-12-01 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
* glib/gstdio.c (g_stat): In the Win32 implementation, strip
trailing slash(es) for non-root folders. stat() fails if non-root
folders are specified with trailing slashes. It's too much hassle
to demand that callers strip such slashes themselves, especially
as it is easy to get it wrong and strip the slash of a root
folder.
(g_rename): On NT-based Windows, use MoveFileEx() with
MOVEFILE_REPLACE_EXISTING to better match Unix behaviour.
2005-11-28 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
Fix G_STMT_START / G_STMT_END on Solaris. (#321972,
Andrew Paprocki)
* configure.in: Check whether do { } while (0) works.
* glib/gmacros.h: Use do { } while (0) for G_STMT_START /
G_STMT_END if it works.
Wed Nov 23 17:34:01 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
* glib/gdataset.c: access datalist flags via atomic pointer access
funcitons, instead of acquiring the dataset lock. this is faster and
also matches the atomic pointer readouts in gdatalistprivate.h and
direct pointer modifications required by gobject.c.
2005-11-22 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
Avoid double locking in g_intern_string (#322133,
Benedikt Meurer)
* glib/gdataset.c (g_quark_from_string_internal): New
internal function which factors out common parts of
g_quark_from[_static]_string.
(g_quark_from_string, g_quark_from_static_string):
Use g_quark_from_string_internal.
(g_intern_string, g_intern_static_string): Use
g_quark_from_string_internal, and only take the
lock once.
(g_quark_new): Don't store the strings shifted by -1
in the g_quarks array.
(g_quark_to_string): Adapt to the previous change.
2005-11-17 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/glib.symbols:
* glib/gdate.h:
* glib/gdate.c (g_date_set_time_t):
(g_date_set_time_val): Add functions to set a date from
a time_t and from a GTimeVal.
(g_date_set_time): Deprecate. (#314067, Roger Leigh)
2005-11-17 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* tests/Makefile.am:
* tests/utf8-pointer.c: Unit tests for g_utf8_pointer_to_offset
and g_utf8_offset_to_pointer.
* glib/gutf8.c (g_utf8_pointer_to_offset)
(g_utf8_offset_to_pointer): Handle negative offsets, and use
"stutter stepping" for going backwards. (#320638, Larry
Ewing)
2005-11-17 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/gbacktrace.c:
* glib/gdate.c:
* glib/gthread.c: const correctness fixes, found
by Arjan van de Ven and gcc.
2005-11-16 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
* docs/reference/glib/tmpl/unicode.sgml: Correct typo on mentioning
@G_UNICODE_BREAK_UNKNOWN that should be #G_UNICODE_BREAK_UNKNOWN.
2005-11-09 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
* glib/guniprop.c: Use bit hacks instead when checking a general
category value against multiple values.
* glib/gutf8.c: Change ISO10646 to Unicode in docs.
2005-11-07 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/gmem.c (g_allocator_new): We need to set n_preallocs to a
nonzero value, otherwise GTK+ 2.8 breaks when compiled against
GLib 2.9. (#320755, Luca Ferretti)
2005-11-04 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/Makefile.am: Apply a patch from Behdad Esfahbod to
use a faster lookup table for g_unichar_get_mirror_char().
* glib/gmirroringtable.h: The new table.
* glib/gunichartables.h: Remove bidi_mirroring_table.
* glib/gen-unicode-tables.pl: Don't generate the mirroring
table.
* glib/glib-mirroring-tab/*: Sources for the program
which generated gmirroringtable.h.
* glib/glist.c: Avoid some code duplication.
2005-11-04 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/gdebug.h: add new GDebugFlag for fatal_criticals
* glib/gmessages.c: (_g_debug_init): handle G_DEBUG=fatal_criticals,
to help find critical warnings in applications. (#320017,
Vincent Untz)
2005-11-02 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
* glib/glib.symbols: Remove large amount of trailing whitespace
from one line. Remove #ifdef G_UNDEFINED from around
g_hash_table_new and g_hash_table_new_full symbols, what was the
purpose of that? Add the g_slice functions.
Tue Nov 1 16:24:20 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
* glib/gmem.[hc]: prepared deprecation of GMemChunk and GAllocator.
added g_slice_*() API to allocate and cache small bits of memory.
an actuall allocator implementation for g_slice_*() is still pending.
* glib/gthread.[hc]: changes from a patch by Matthias Clasen.
changed GRealThread list to use in-structure *next; fields instead
of GSList, in order for thread iteration to not depenend on g_slice_*()
indirectly.
_g_thread_mem_private_get():
_g_thread_mem_private_set(): added accessors for private memory,
needed because the ordinary GPrivate implementation relies on GArray
and GSList and therefore indirectly on working g_slice_*() allocations.
* glib/gthread.[hc]:
g_thread_foreach(): new public API function to loop over all existing threads.
* glib/gdataset.c:
* glib/gstring.c:
* glib/gcache.c:
* glib/garray.c:

* glib/ghash.c:
* glib/gtree.c:
* glib/ghook.c:
* glib/gmain.c:
* glib/gnode.c:
removed GAllocator and free list usages and accompanying locks.
use g_slice_*() API to allocate and cache small bits of memory.
* glib/ghook.h: removed GMemChunk field from public API.
* glib/gslist.h:
* glib/glist.h: deprecate allocator API, provide _free1() for consistency.
* glib/gnode.h: deprecate allocator API.
* glib/gmain.c: reordered GPollRec fields so g_slice_free_chain() can
be used for poll rec lists.
* glib/grel.c: removed mem chunk usage, and allocated tuples via g_slice_*().
g_relation_destroy(): free all tuples from the all_tuples hash table,
this effectively maintains the life time track keeping of tuples.
g_relation_delete_tuple(): free tuples which are removed from the
all_tuples hash table. this fixes a temporary leak that was present
in the memchunk code until the destruction of the relation.
2005-10-29 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* tests/convert-test.c: Add some tests for conversions between
UTF-8, UCS-4 and UTF-16.
* glib/gutf8.c (g_utf8_to_ucs4, g_utf8_to_utf16): Fix handling
of len == -1, noticed by Morten Welinder.
2005-10-19 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
* configure.in: Use AC_CHECK_FUNCS for _NSGetEnviron, to get the
config.h symbol automatically. Fixes bug #313731.
2005-10-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
* glib/gwin32.c (g_win32_get_package_installation_directory):
Return a g_strdup()ed copy of the value stored in the hash table,
so that it can be g_free()d without leaving a dangling pointer in
the hash table. (#319232)
2005-10-05 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* Makefile.am: Add Collation tests.
* tests/collate/*: Inputs and expected outputs for collation tests.
* tests/run-collate-tests.sh: Script to run collation tests.
* tests/unicode-collate.c (main): Rework slightly to make
it usable in unit tests. Also test g_utf8_collate_key_for_filename().
2005-10-01 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
* docs/reference/glib/tmpl/unicode.sgml:
* glib/gen-unicode-tables.pl:
* glib/gunibreak.h:
* glib/gunichartables.h:
* glib/gunicode.h:
* tests/casefold.txt:
* tests/casemap.txt: Updated to Unicode 4.1. There are five new
GUnicodeBreakType types. That may break some applications, like
Pango <= 1.10.
2005-09-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/gprintf.h: Remove g_snprintf() and g_vsnprintf(), since
they are already declared in glib.h. This doesn't break documented
use of gprintf.h, but should probably be pointed out in the
release notes for 2.10. (#314232, Behdad Esfahbod)
Tue Sep 20 13:16:04 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
* glib/gpattern.c (g_pattern_ph_match): applied significant recursion
complexity optimization, based on a patch from Matthias Clasen.
* tests/patterntest.c: more tests, mostly from matthias.
Mon Sep 19 17:23:23 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
* glib/gpattern.c: applied a patch from matthias which checks on the
upper bound of GPatternSpec length to optimize matches.
cosmetic fixups.
* tests/patterntest.c: added more match cases.
2005-09-16 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
* glib/gstrfuncs.c (g_ascii_strcasecmp, g_ascii_strncasecmp): Add
warning to doc comment that these functions should not be used on
encodings like CP932.
2005-09-14 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* tests/keyfile-test.c: Add a test for grup names of length 1.
* glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_line_is_group): Accept group names
of length 1. (#316309)
2005-09-11 Sebastian Wilhelmi <seppi@seppi.de>
* tests/refcount/Makefile.am (INCLUDES): Link the the refcount
tests to the system thread library $(G_THREAD_LIBS). Fixes#313744
and #314217.
2005-09-07 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
* glib/Makefile.am: Create also a console version of the
gspawn-win32-helper program, gspawn-win32-helper-console.exe.
It's otherwise identical to gspawn-win32-helper.exe, except marked
as a console application (linked without the -mwindows option).
* glib/gspawn-win32.c (do_spawn_directly, do_spawn_with_pipes):
Drop the dont_wait parameter. Its truth value correlated 100% with
the NULLness of the exit_status parameter anyway, so it's enough
to check whether exit_status is NULL. Invert the sense of the
dont_return_handle parameter and rename it to do_return_handle, to
make the code easier to read by avoiding double negations.
(g_spawn_sync_utf8, g_spawn_async_with_pipes_utf8): Modify calls
to do_spawn_with_pipes() accordingly.
(do_spawn_with_pipes): If we have a console, use the console
version of the helper program, otherwise use the GUI one. This
avoids extra console windows opening up in some situations. (In
case a console application uses the GUI gspawn-win32-helper.exe to
spawn another console application we would get a separate console
for the spawned console application).
* glib-zip.in: Distribute also gspawn-win32-helper-console.exe.
2005-09-05 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/gmappedfile.c (g_mapped_file_new): Report an error
if the file is too large. (#315275, Kjartan Maraas)
2005-09-05 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_load_from_fd): The return value
of read() is signed. (#315273, Kjartan Maraas)
2005-08-31 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
* glib/gutils.h: Wrapping atexit() is a bad idea on Windows, where
the EXE and each DLL have their own atexit function chains.
#define g_atexit as atexit instead. This means it has a
better chance of doing what the caller wants. For instance,
gtkhtml calls g_atexit() registering a function in gtkhtml
itself. This caused a crash when g_atexit() was implemented as a
function in the GLib DLL. The gtkhtml DLL was already unloaded by
the time the GLib DLL got unloaded.
* glib/gutils.c: #undef the #define mentioned above, to also get a
real g_atexit() into the DLL for backward compatibility. Document
the Windows behaviour of g_atexit(), and document the varying ways
atexit() can behave in the context of dynamically loaded modules
on Unix.
2005-08-25 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
Make also the g_spawn*() functions take parameters in the GLib
file name encoding, i.e. UTF-8, on Windows. Has no impact on Unix
API or ABI. Like the other GLib API that was earlier changed to
use UTF-8 on Windows, the names of the functions that take UTF-8
have _utf8 suffixes added by using preprocessor macros in the
header file. The old names are kept for functions with the old
behaviour, taking parameters in the system codepage, for DLL ABI
stability.
* glib/gspawn.h: On Win32 add the suffix _utf8 to the names of the
g_spawn*() functions.
* glib/gspawn-win32.c: Use wide-char API on NT-based
Windows. Convert parameters from UTF-8 to wide chars (NT) or
system codepage (Win9x) and call the C library _wspawn*() or
spawn*() functions respectvely. Add DLL ABI stability versions
that take parameters in the system codepage.
* glib/gspawn-win32-helper.c: On NT-based Windows use the
wide-char versions of argv and envp, and use wide-char API to
change directory and spawn the program to run. Remove the verbose
debugging output, it was too complex to modify for the wide-char
features. (Just add temporary debugging printouts if needed, no
need to have them permanently in the source.)
* glib/gspawn.c: Corresponding documentation updates.
* glib/glib.symbols: Corresponding changes: Mark the ABI stability
symbols as PRIVATE, add the new _utf8-suffixed ones.
2005-08-17 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* configure.in: Check for crt_externs.h and _NSGetEnviron.
* glib/gutils.c: On Darwin, include crt-externs.h and
define environ using _NSGetEnviron(). (#313731)
2005-08-16 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
* glib/gutils.c (g_get_any_init): Move the body of the big if...
(g_get_any_init_do): ... to this new function.
(g_get_any_init): Declare as inline.
(g_get_any_init_locked): New inline function, does the locking.
Make use of these two throughout the code.
2005-08-15 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/gbacktrace.c (g_on_error_stack_trace): Wait for
the child process and then simply return. This makes
The "S" option work as documented in g_on_error_query().
(#313125, Matthew F. Barnes)
* gobject/genums.c: (g_flags_get_first_value): Special-case flag
value of 0. Instead of returning the first random GFlagsValue
we come across, return the GFlagsValue for 0 if it exists or
NULL if it does not exist. Never return the GFlagsValue for 0
if the requested flags value is nonzero.
2005-08-10 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/gfileutils.c (g_build_path_va, g_build_pathname_va):
Take a va_list*, not a va_list, to avoid compiler warnings
about uninitialized variables.
2005-08-09 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* tests/gobject/Makefile.am (test_programs): Add it here.
* tests/gobject/gvalue-test.c: Beginning of a test suite
for GValue.
2005-08-08 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* tests/convert-test.c: Enable the endianness test.
* glib/gconvert.c: Make the caching of iconv descriptors
optional.
* configure.in: Add an --enable-iconv-cache option, and
default to disabling iconv caching on new enough glibc.
Somebody with access to Solaris systems will need to test
if opening/closing of iconv descriptors is enough of
a performance problem to warrant the caching on that
platform. Note that the caching is causing correctness
problems in some corner cases, thus turning it off
is desirable unless it has severe performance implications.
2005-08-08 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* tests/Makefile.am: Add convert-test here.
* tests/convert-test.c: Add the beginning of a testsuite
for g_convert() and friends.
2005-08-04 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/glib.symbols:
* glib/gatomic.[hc]: Always export g_atomic_int_get and
g_atomic_pointer_get as functions, even if we have macros,
to avoid changing the ABI depending on configuration.
* glib/gatomic.c: Fix the s390 implementations of
g_atomic_pointer_compare_and_exchange.
2005-08-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
* glib/gstdio.h: Move the G_BEGIN_DECLS/G_END_DECLS pair outside
the #if/#else/#endif block. Otherwise we had G_BEGIN_DECLS without
matching G_END_DECLS on Unix, and G_END_DECLS without matching
G_BEGIN_DECLS on Win32.
2005-08-02 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/gconvert.c (g_convert_with_iconv): Don't go in an
infinite loop if the input text ends in an incomplete multibyte
character. (#312402, Sebastian Bacher)
2005-08-02 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
* tests/refcount/objects.c
* tests/refcount/properties.c
* tests/refcount/signals.c: Use g_usleep() instead of sleep() for
portability.
Mon Aug 1 23:33:47 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
* tests/refcount/closures.c: test high contention on closure
reference counts to trigger and catch non-atomic updates.
* tests/refcount/objects.c:
* tests/refcount/objects2.c:
* tests/refcount/properties.c:
* tests/refcount/properties2.c:
* tests/refcount/signals.c:
fixed up test and threading fundamentals. variables accessed from all
threads need to be volatile. context switches are enforced by using
g_thread_yield(), not g_usleep(1) which may result in busy waits on
some platforms. for testcode, always consider all warnings and
critical messages fatal. issue the currently running program on
stdout. improved progress indicators.
* tests/refcount/properties.c:
* tests/refcount/objects.c:
don't overdo the number of testing threads to keep the testing machine
usable, 2 threads can produce as much contention as 20 if executing the
same code.
* tests/refcount/signals.c: only start 1 thread per object. GObject
doesn't provide mutually exclusive object access, but only mutually
exclusive reference count modification.
* tests/Makefile.am: added closures test.
2005-08-01 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
* tests/uri-test.c: Make it pass on Win32.
(from_uri_tests[]): Take into consideration that on Win32 we don't
return "localhost" hostnames.
(safe_strcmp_filename): New function that considers slash and
backslash equal on Win32.
(run_roundtrip_tests): Use safe_strcmp_filename().

moved G_DATALIST_*_POINTER() macros here, because proper use requires
the global g_dataset_global mutex to be acquired.
g_datalist_id_get_data():
g_datalist_unset_flags():
g_datalist_set_flags(): properly acquire and release dataset mutex.
* glib/gdatasetprivate.h: implement G_DATALIST_GET_FLAGS() via atomic
pointer access to account for memory barriers. moved all other macros.
2005-07-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* configure.in: Try -mt as compiler flag for threads, needed
for the HP C compiler on HP-UX. (#163051, Paul Cornett)
2005-07-20 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/gthreadpool.c (g_thread_pool_free): Don't get
stuck in here if immediate is TRUE. (#310954,
Hong Jen Yee)
* tests/threadpool-test.c (main): Test immediate == TRUE.
2005-07-20 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
* glib/gutils.h (g_win32_get_system_data_dirs): Make this an
inline function. Define it only if G_CAN_INLINE and not
C++. (#173098)
2005-07-19 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/gstring.c (g_string_chunk_insert_len): Avoid
an unnecessary strlen if len is -1. (#169692,
Benoit Dejean)
2005-07-15 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
Make refcounting threadsafe by using atomic
operations. (#166020, Wim Taymans)
* gobject.c: Use a recursive lock to protect the
notify queue.
(g_object_unref): Get rid of g_object_last_unref and
do the last unref handling in g_object_unref.
(g_object_ref, g_object_unref): Use atomic operations.
* gsignal.c (struct _HandlerMatch): Use a full integer
for the ref_count field.
(handler_ref, handler_unref_R): Use atomic operations.
* gparam.c (g_param_spec_ref, g_param_spec_unref):
Use atomic operations instead of a lock to make the
refcounting threadsafe.
* gclosure.c (g_closure_ref, g_closure_unref): Use atomic
operations. This is more complicated here, since the
refcount is stored in a bitfield, so we also have
to access all other bitfield members atomically.
* gsignal.c (handlers_find): Read the meta_marshal flag
of the closure atomically.
* tests/Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Add tests/refcount
* configure.in: Add tests/refcount
* tests/refcount/properties.c: Test property changes
from multiple threads.
* tests/refcount/signals.c: Test signal emission from
multiple threads.
* tests/refcount/objects.c: Test refcounting from
multiple threads.
* tests/refcount/objects2.c:
* tests/refcount/properties2.c: Tests to measure the
overhead of threadsafe refcounting.
* glib/giochannel.c (g_io_channel_ref, g_io_channel_unref):
Use atomic operations to make refcounting
threadsafe. (#166020, Wim Taymans)
2005-07-12 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/goption.h (G_OPTION_FLAG_NOALIAS):
* glib/goption.c: Add and implement a new flag
to turn off the automatic <groupname>- prefixing
for conflict resolution of long option names. (#171840,
Adam McLaurin)
All optional callback arguments (#308886, Pawel
Sliwowski)
* glib/goption.h (G_OPTION_FLAG_OPTIONAL_ARG):
* glib/goption.c: Add and implement a new flag
to indicate that a callback *optionally* takes another
argument.
* tests/option-test.c: Add tests for optional arguments.
2005-07-10 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/gutils.c (g_listenv): Ignore anomalous environment
entries which are not of the form variable=value. (#309859,
Morten Welinder)
2005-07-09 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
* configure.in: Don't use autoconf variables for the resource
object files on Win32 any longer. Instead handle that in the
Makefile.am files. Check for windres.
* glibconfig.h.win32.in: Minor tuning to match the
configure-produced glibconfig.h closely.
* */Makefile.am: Don't use the scripts in build/win32 to
compile the .rc file into a resource object file. (This means
we loose the build number increment magic, but I doubt it was
that useful anyway.) Instead use windres directly. To pass the
normal .o file produced by windres through libtool, which
wants .lo files, pass it directly to the linker using a -Wl
option.
* */*.rc.in: Thus replace BUILDNUMBER with 0.
2005-07-01 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>
* glib/gmessages.c : include <process.h> for getpid()
* glib/gmappedfile.c : include <io.h> for close() etc.
* glib/makefile.msc.in : add gmappedfile.obj
2005-07-01 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_get_key_comment):
(g_key_file_get_top_comment): Don't reverse the order of multiline
comments.
(g_key_file_get_group_comment): Actually get the group comment.
* tests/keyfile-test.c (test_comments): Test that comments are
handled properly. (#309263, Mikael Magnusson)
2005-07-01 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* tests/keyfile-test.c (test_comments): Test that comments are
handled properly. (#309263, Mikael Magnusson)
2005-06-30 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
Apply a patch which may make GLib work on BeOS again.
(#309157, Kian Duffy)
* glib/gmain.c: Update the BeOS includes.
* glib/gstdio.c:
* glib/gutils.c (g_find_program_in_path):
* glib/gbacktrace.c (g_on_error_stack_trace): Use the UNIX
implementation on BeOS, as well.
* configure.in: Don't put glib 1.0 into G_MODULE_LIBS, even
on BeOS.
2005-06-26 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
* glib/Makefile.am: libtool installs/uninstalls the import
library, no need to do it ourselves. Do still install/uninstall
the .def file, though.
* glib/gmappedfile.c: Add Win32 implementation.
(g_mapped_file_free): Don't mention writable shared mappings in
the doc comment. Free the GMappedFile struct.
* tests/mapping-test.c (main): No kill() or SIGUSR1 on Win32, use
a flag file instead to stop the child. Use g_usleep() instead of
sleep().
2005-06-24 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
Add an mmap() wrapper called GMappedFile. (#148218,
David Schleef, Behdad Esfahbod)
* glib/gmappedfile.[hc]: New files.
* configure.in: Check for mmap.
* glib/Makefile.am: Add new files.
* glib/glib.symbols: Add new functions.
* glib/glib.h: Include gmappedfile.h
* tests/mapping-test.c: Tests for GMappedFile.
* tests/Makefile.am: Add new file.
2005-06-24 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
* glib/Makefile.am
* gmodule/Makefile.am
* gobject/Makefile.am: Current GNU tools do understand the
PRIVATE keyword.
* glib/gfileutils.c (g_mkdir_with_parents): Return error with
EINVAL also for empty pathnames.
(g_build_pathname_va): Fix typo.
Thu Jun 23 15:52:08 2005 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
* glib/gfileutils.c: g_build_filename_va is only use in the G_OS_WIN32
case, so compile it conditionally.
2005-06-22 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/goption.c (parse_short_option, parse_long_option):
Pass the option name also in the NO_ARG case. (#308602,
Masatake YAMATO)
2005-06-22 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
* glib/gfileutils.c (g_makepath): New function. Creates a
directory including intermediate parent directories as
needed. (#60509)
* glib/gfileutils.h: Declare it.
* glib/glib.symbols: Add it.
* tests/testglib.c: Test it.
2005-06-22 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
* glib/gutils.c (g_get_host_name): New function. Returns the
machine's name, or one of its names. Document that it is
best-effort only, and not guaranteed to be unique or anything.
(g_get_any_init): Get the host name here. On Unix use
gethostname(), on Windows use GetComputerName(). (#5200)
* glib/gutils.h
* glib/glib.symbols: Add here, too.
* tests/testglib.c: Test it.
2005-06-18 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/goption.h:
* glib/goption.c: Add G_OPTION_FLAG_NO_ARG and
G_OPTION_FLAG_FILENAME to allow greater control of
G_OPTION_ARG_CALLBACK options. (#302632, Dan Winship)
* tests/option-test.c: test callback args
2005-06-08 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
* glib/gutils.c (get_windows_directory_root): New helper function
on Win32, returns the root of the drive (or possibly share) where
the Windows directory is. (In the case of Terminal Server sessions
the Windows directory is a per-user folder.)
(g_get_any_init): Use get_windows_directory_root() as last resort
for both temp directory and home directory. g_get_home_dir() now
never returns NULL on Win32. Don't look at HOMEDRIVE and
HOMEPATH. HOME, USERPROFILE, CSIDL_PROFILE and Windows directory
drive root should be enough.
2005-06-08 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/glib.symbols:
* glib/gunicode.h:
* glib/gunicollate.c (g_utf8_collate_key_for_filename):
New function to calculate collation keys which are more
suitable for sorting filenames. (#172690, Ole Laursen)
2005-05-27 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/goption.c (parse_short_option, parse_long_option):
Return an error if an option is missing its argument. (#305576,
Björn Lindqvist)
* tests/option-test.c (missing_arg_test): Add a testcase.
2005-05-24 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/goption.c (print_help): If the remaining argument
has an arg_description, display the synopsis as
PROGNAME [OPTION...] REST (#305346, Noah Levitt)
2005-05-20 Federico Mena Quintero <federico@ximian.com>
Merged from glib-2-6:
* glib/gspawn.c (g_spawn_command_line_sync): Clarify the meaning
of exit_status(); it's not the return code from the child, but
rather the waitpid() status.
2005-05-18 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/gunidecomp.c: Correct the end of the Hangul
Syllables range, from 0xd7af to 0xd7a3, in several
places. (#301984, Changwoo Ryu)
2005-05-17 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* tests/tree-test.c (main): Check the return values of
g_tree_remove().
* glib/gtree.c (g_tree_remove, g_tree_steal): Return
a boolean indicating wether the key was found. (#302545,
Matthew F. Barnes)
2005-05-06 Brian Cameron <brian.cameron@sun.com>
* configure.in, gmodule-no-export-2.0-uninstalled.pc.in,
Makefile.am: Added gmodule-no-export-2.0-uninstalled.pc.in
to allow building of other libraries like pango when
glib is uninstalled.
2005-05-06 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* tests/option-test.c: Add a testcase.
* glib/goption.c (g_option_context_parse): Treat '-'
on its own as a non-option argument. (#168008, Tim Musson,
Thomas Leonard and others)
2005-05-05 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
* gobject.[ch] gobject.symbols: Add
g_object_add/remove_toggle_ref() functions to get notification
when a reference count is the last remaining reference; this
enables better memory management for language bindings.
(http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-devel-list/2005-April/msg00095.html)
2005-05-05 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
* glib/gdataset.[ch] glib/gdatasetprivate.h: Add
g_datalist_set/unset_flags(), g_datalist_get_flags() functions
to squeeze some bits into a GDataSet... this is needed for
efficient implementation of toggle references in GObject.
* tests/gobject/references.c tests/gobject/Makefile.am:
Add a test case for weak and toggle references.
* glib/gfileutils.[ch]: Rename g_file_replace() back
to g_file_set_contents().
* glib/glib.symbols: Update.
2005-05-05 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
* glib/Makefile.am glib/glib-sections.txt gobject/gobject-sections.txt:
Update
* gobject/tmpl/objects.sgml: Document toggle-references.
2005-04-28 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/gstrfuncs.c (g_strcompress): Warn and don't crash
when meeting a trailing \\. (#301373, Benjamin Otte)
2005-04-27 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
* glib/gconvert.c (open_converter, g_convert_with_iconv): Don't
call g_set_error() unless the GError pointer is non-NULL. This
avoids infinite recursion problems in certain rare situations on
Windows, when g_locale_from_utf8() is called from
_glib_get_locale_dir() after the change below. It's the
_glib_gettext() calls to translate error messages that are
parameters to g_set_error() that cause the recursion, not
g_set_error() itself.
* glib/gwin32.c (g_win32_locale_filename_from_utf8): New
function. Converts a filename to the system codepage, and if a
straight conversion isn't possible (because the filename contains
characters not in the system codepage), try looking up the
filename (which should refer to an existing file for this to
succeed) with short (8.3) pathname components.
* glib/gutils.c (_glib_get_locale_dir): No need to cache the
result, this function is normally called only once. Return the
path to the locale directory in system codepage, not UTF-8. The
path is passed to bindtextdomain(), which doesn't use UTF-8 file
names. Use g_win32_locale_filename_from_utf8(). (#301772)
Don't do run-time lookup of message catalog directory on
Cygwin. Cygwin is supposed to look and feel like Unix, and on Unix
we use paths fixed at configure time.
2005-04-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
* glib/gutils.h: Minor comment improvement.
2005-04-18 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
* glib/gfileutils.c: No <sys/wait.h> on Win32. Definition of
save_errno was missing in one place.
Sat Apr 16 20:15:44 2005 Soeren Sandmann <sandmann@redhat.com>
* glib/gfileutils.c (g_file_replace): Save the errno in various
places
* glib/gfileutils.c (set_umask_permissions): Fork a child and do
chmod() to the umask() permissions there.
2005-04-08 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
Improve g_get_system_data_dirs() on Windows. A library that calls
g_get_system_data_dirs() might be installed in a different
top-level prefix than GLib or the application being run.
* glib/gutils.h (g_win32_get_system_data_dirs): New static
function defined in this header. Calls
g_win32_get_system_data_dirs_for_module() passing the address of
itself as parameter. g_get_system_data_dirs() is #defined as this
function.
* glib/gutils.c (g_win32_get_system_data_dirs_for_module): New
function. If the address parameter is non-NULL, the corresponding
module's installation location is used for one of the returned
path names, in addition to the COMMON_APPDATA, COMMON_DOCUMENTS,
glib top-level and application top-level folders.
(g_get_system_data_dirs): Now just for backward compatibility on
Win32. Just call g_win32_get_system_data_dirs_for_module(NULL).
* glib/glib.symbols: Add g_win32_get_system_data_dirs_for_module.
2005-04-08 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
* glib/gutils.c (read_aliases): Not used on Windows.
(unalias_lang): Don't do anything on Windows, there is no
/usr/share/locale/locale.alias file..
2005-04-08 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
* glib/gutils.c (g_get_system_data_dirs): After investigating more
closely the actual use cases of this function, I understand better
what it should do. In addition to the Windows COMMON_APPDATA and
COMMON_DOCUMENTS folders, also return the "share" subfolders of
GLib's installation location and the application .exe's
installation location, hoping that either matches what the
function's caller is looking for.
2005-04-03 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/gutils.h: Undef G_CAN_INLINE if G_IMPLEMENT_INLINES is
defined. This was the pre-2.6 behaviour, and without it,
G_IMPLEMENT_INLINES cannot be used in multiple .c files
at all. (#165852, Dave Benson)
2005-04-01 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/gmain.c (g_child_watch_source_new): Add a note regarding
waitpid(-1).
(g_child_watch_source_init_multi_threaded):
(g_child_watch_source_init_single): Don't use SA_RESTART,
since it causes problems on at least one platform. (#168352)
2005-03-30 Sven Neumann <sven@gimp.org>
* glib/gfileutils.c (get_contents_stdio): handle the unlikely case
that no bytes are read from the file and allocate an empty string.
2005-03-30 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
* glib/giowin32.c (g_io_win32_fd_get_flags_internal): Always claim
file descriptors open to devices are readable, since we can't
know. fstat() doesn't gve any useful information.
2005-03-29 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
* glib/gmain.c (g_get_current_time): [Win32] Use
GetSystemTimeAsFileTime() instead of time() and
GetTickCount(). Much simpler.
