* Makefile.am, gcompat.h, glib.h: New gcompat.h header file
as recommended by Havoc.
* gdate.c, gdate.h, testgdate.c,
docs/reference/glib/glib-sections.txt,
docs/reference/glib/tmpl/date.sgml, tests/date-test.c: Rename some
of the gdate functions to use the '_get' in their name. Patch
reviewed by Havoc.

* 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.
2000-12-19 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* grand.c: Updated G_RAND_DOUBLE_TRANSFORM to be more
accurate. Redid g_rand_double() such that it returns 52 bits after
the point instead of 32 as before. That OTOH requires calling
g_rand_int() twice. Overhauled g_rand_int_range(), which is easier
now thanks to the new precision of g_rand_double(). Thanks to
Sverre Johansen <sj@ifi.uio.no> for the hint.
* grand.h: Added g_rand_boolean() and g_random_boolean()
macros. While they could be omitted due to extreme simplicity,
they make intention clearer in code and are therefore good to have.
* grand.c, grand.h: Renamed all 'min' and 'max' parameters to'
begin' and 'end' resp. to avoid making people think, that 'max' is
included in the interval. 'end' now isn't, whereas 'begin'
is. That's similar to the use in the STL.
* glib/glib-sections.txt: Added g_rand_boolean and
g_random_boolean macros.
* glib/tmpl/random_numbers.sgml: Updated.
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 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* glib/glib-sections.txt, glib/tmpl/linked_lists_double.sgml,
glib/tmpl/caches.sgml: Move GCompareFunc to GList and introduce
and document GEqualFunc in GHashTable.
* glib/tmpl/caches.sgml, glib/tmpl/hash_tables.sgml,
glib/tmpl/relations.sgml : Changed to reflect the changed API
(GCompareFunc -> GEqualFunc).
* glib/tmpl/linked_lists_single.sgml, glib/tmpl/threads.sgml: Typo
fixes.
2000-10-27 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* glib/glib-sections.txt, glib/tmpl/hash_tables.sgml,
glib/tmpl/macros_misc.sgml, glib/tmpl/misc_utils.sgml,
glib/tmpl/scanner.sgml: Document the recently deprecated functions
as such.
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.
2000-09-29 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().
Thu Sep 7 12:35:35 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
* Some further makefile improvement.
* Restore all the docs that mysteriously vanished earlier.
Wed Sep 6 10:59:45 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
* gobject/Makefile.am glib/Makefile.am: Improve
separation of generic non-generic parts and dependencies.
Wed Sep 6 00:30:09 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
* glib/* gobject/*: Split GObject docs away from
the remainder of the docs.
* glib/Makefile.am gobject/Makefile.am: Rework
to have reasonable dependencies. (No dependencies
on the files actually in the source directories,
so to get it going, you have to do 'make scan',
but after that, things should work OK.)
2000-04-16 Damon Chaplin <damon@helixcode.com>
* tmpl/linked_lists_single.sgml:
* tmpl/linked_lists_double.sgml:
* tmpl/trees-nary.sgml: updated.
* tmpl/modules.sgml: described g_module_build_path().
* tmpl/date.sgml: made short description lower case and end in a '.'.
* glib-sections.txt: rearranged GDate section.
* tmpl/arrays.sgml:
* tmpl/arrays_byte.sgml:
* tmpl/arrays_pointer.sgml: updated.
1999-12-02 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* glib-sections.txt, tmpl/threads.sgml: Removed
G_THREADS_IMPL_NSPR. Shouldn't be used anyway.
* glib-overrides.txt: New file, that makes most of the thread
related macros look like functions.
* Makefile.am: Added glib-overrides.txt to EXTRA_DIST.
* tmpl/threads.sgml: Minor updates.
