2001-01-30 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* gthread/gthread-impl.c (g_thread_init_with_errorcheck_mutexes): Call
g_thread_impl_init(), as g_thread_init won't call it.
* glib/glib-sections.txt, glib/tmpl/threads.sgml: Added
g_static_mutex_free
* gthread.c, gthread.h: Added g_static_mutex_free to allow using
GStaticMutexes with limited lifetime without leaking.
* configure.in: GStaticMutex doesn't have to provide extra space
for debugging information for G_ERRORCHECK_MUTEXES, as then the
non-default implementation (runtime_mutex) is used anyway.
Mon Jan 15 21:12:49 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
* configure.in acconfig.h glibintl.h gutils.c
po/{Makefile.in.in,POTFILES.in,po2tbl.in}: Add gettext
support.
* glib-gettext.m4 acinclude.m4: Clean up the GTK+ gettext macros
some more and put them in this file, though they also need
to be included in acinclude.m4 due to the brokeness of
aclocal.
* gspawn.c gspawn-win32.c gutf8.c gconvert.c gfileutils.c
gshell.c: Remove dummy _() #defines, include glibintl.m4.
Fri Jan 5 11:25:42 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
* configure.in (PACKAGE): move $enable_debug down below
checks for GCC to avoid setting CFLAGS prematurely,
change checks to avoid adding -g twice.
* gutf8.c (g_ucs4_to_utf8): Support len < 0 to mean
0 termination.
* gutf8.c (g_utf8_to_ucs4): Terminate result with 0.
* tests/mainloop-test.c (main): Fix uses of
g_main_loop_destroy().
* tests/unicode-encoding.c tests/Makefile.am tests/utf8.txt:
Tests for unicode-conversion code.
* gconvert.c (g_convert, g_convert_with_fallback): work around
a couple of GNU libc bugs.
* gconvert.[ch] (g_{locale,filename}_{to,from}_utf8): Standardize
arguments to match g_convert(). Document.
* gunicode.[ch]:
- Implement conversion functions to and from UTF-16
- Standardize unicode conversion functions on prototype like
g_convert.
- Add a lot of error checking to unicode conversion functions.
* gunicode.[ch] (g_utf8_to_ucs4_fast): Add fast, non-checking
variant of g_utf8_to_ucs4.
* gutf8.c (g_utf8_validate):
- add g_return_if_fail (str != NULL).
- add checks for overlong strings, non-valid Unicode characters (>= 110000)
and single surrogates.
2001-01-05 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
* gfileutils.c (g_file_open_tmp): (Win32:) Look also for (illegal)
forward slashes in the template.
* gutils.c (g_path_skip_root): On Win32, skip the \\server\share
part of UNC paths. On all platforms, skip several initial
slashes. Add a few comments.
(g_get_any_init): On Win32, in case HOME is Unix-style with
(forward) slashes (some other applications apparently set it up
this way, convert to backslashed form.
* configure.in (glib_os): Remove stray 'v'. Add case for mingw,
although using configure for mingw surely doesn't work yet.
* glib.def: Update.
Fri Dec 29 14:53:18 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* configure.in: we can't grow _cv_ variables by using a backticked
expr that refers back to the variable (glib_cv_sizeof_system_thread for
G_THREAD_USE_PID_SURROGATE), that'd keep the variable growing every time
it's evaluated. quantum states, anyone?)
Thu Dec 28 10:21:46 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* gmem.[hc]: got rid of outdated dmalloc support. provide g_try_malloc()
and g_try_realloc() which _may_ fail and return NULL.
nuked g_mem_check(), provided GMemVTable for memory function
virtualization, alterable at program startup with g_mem_set_vtable().
provided glib_mem_profiler_table and g_mem_profile() to support limited
profiling information out of the box (uses mprotect() for free()ed areas
on linux).
provide globally visible G_MEM_ALIGN.
buncha cleanups.
* docs/macros.txt: file to get a clue about the various configuration
macros.
* docs/debugging.txt: explain debugging traps.
* configure.in: got rid of --enable-mem-check and --enable-mem-profile,
define GLIB_SIZEOF_VOID_P and GLIB_SIZEOF_LONG. check malloc prototypes
and define SANE_MALLOC_PROTOS is we can use them.
<boy, is this file a mess>
* gutils.c, gscanner.c: fix up compatibility warnings, use g_message().
Thu Dec 28 11:36:44 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* gbsearcharray.c (upper_power2): disable G_BSEARCH_ALIGN_POWER2
fucntionality if DISABLE_MEM_POOLS is defined.
* gtype.c: honour DISABLE_MEM_POOLS.
* gsignal.c (g_signal_init): flag signal key bsearch array with
G_BSEARCH_ALIGN_POWER2 to avoid excessive growth time. honour
DISABLE_MEM_POOLS.
* gparam.h: added G_PARAM_READWRITE alias for (G_PARAM_READABLE |
G_PARAM_WRITABLE).
2000-12-22 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* 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.
Mon Dec 11 04:44:11 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* gboxed.c: fixed dealing with collection/lcopy of NULL values.
* gclosure.h: removed insane ramblings, added G_CALLBACK() a casting
convenience macro.
* Makefile.am: cleanups, marshaller generation rules.
* gmarshal.[hc]: new files with GRuntime standard marshallers.
* glib-genmarshal.c: fix log domain, support gruntime standard
marshallers, suport G_TYPE_PARAM, come with extern "C" and
#include gmarshal.h.
* glib-genmarshal.1: reflect glib-genmarshal.c updates.
* gobject.[hc]: implement object constructor. rework parameter
changed notification queueing, we support queue freezes now and
don't dispatch from an idle handler anymore.
parameter->property rename hassle.
implemented ::properties_changed and ::notify::* signals for
property change notification (the later supports property names
as details). added signal connection and named data properties.
(g_signal_connect_object): new function to setup while_alive
connections.
(g_object_class_install_property): sink properties now, since they
are initially floating.
(g_object_steal_data):
(g_object_set_data_full):
(g_object_set_data):
(g_object_get_data): set/get data by using g_datalist_*() functions
directly.
(g_object_queue_param_changed): nuked.
(g_object_freeze_notify): start queueing of property changes (freeze/
thaw calls stack).
(g_object_notify): announce changes of a certain property directly.
(g_object_thaw_notify): process queue of property changes, therefore
emitting GObject::notify::detail with detail being the changed
properties names.
(G_OBJECT_WARN_INVALID_PROPERTY_ID): saner macro variant of former
G_WARN_INVALID_PARAM_ID().
* gparam.[hc]: param specs are now initially floating and need to be
sunken with g_param_spec_sink(), support G_TYPE_PARAM values.
added G_PARAM_CONSTRUCT and G_PARAM_CONSTRUCT_ONLY parameter flags,
required by GObjectClass.constructor().
* gparamspecs.[hc]: added GParamSpecParam, GParamSpecPointer and
GParamSpecCCallback, param specs for G_TYPE_PARAM, G_TYPE_POINTER
and G_TYPE_CCALLBACK respectively.
* gsignal.[hc]: cleanups.
(signal_id_lookup): after walking the anchestry, try interfaces as well.
(g_signal_new): new function to create signals from varargs type list.
(g_signal_connect_closure): closure connection variant that works from
signal name+detail.
(g_signal_connect_data): c handler connection variant that works from
signal name+detail.
(g_signal_emit_valist): emit signal for an instance with paraneters
collected from a va_list.
(g_signal_emit): emit signal, taking parameters from varargs list.
(g_signal_emit_by_name): same as g_signal_emit, working from
signal name+detail.
(signal_emit_R): return whether return_value needs to be altered.
* gtype.[hc]: set log-domain to GRuntime, i'm slowly getting to all
the points that need to reflect the upcoming rename.
melt g_type_conforms_to() functionality into g_type_is_a(), as that
is what we really want (liskov substitution principle).
assorted changes to other files due to conforms_to->is_a.
* gvalue.[hc]: implemented g_value_set_instance() that sets a value
from an instantiatable type via the value_table's collect_value()
function (based on an idea from James Henstridge <james@daa.com.au>).
cleanups/fixes.
* gvaluetypes.[hc]: implement G_TYPE_CCALLBACK and G_TYPE_PARAM.
2000-11-21 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* configure.in: Add a surrogate for thread priorities using PID
niceness for systems with no thread priorities and different PIDs
for threads of the same process (most notably: Linux). Define
G_THREAD_USE_PID_SURROGATE in that case, as used by
gthread-posix.c. Also make the system thread bigger by
sizeof (long) to contain the thread's PID.
* gfileutils.c: Include stdlib.h for mkstemp prototype.
* gthread.c: Add priority range checks to the affected functions.
* gthreadpool.c: Remove unused variable.
* gthread-impl.c, gthread-posix.c, gthread-solaris.c: Removed
g_thread_map_priority function in favour of the
g_thread_priority_map array. Initialize the array with
PRIORITY_{...}_VALUE, if available and interpolate beetween the
bounds if .._NORMAL_.. and .._HIGH_.. are not available.
* gthread-posix.c: If we should use the PID niceness as a
surrogate for thread priorities (G_THREAD_USE_PID_SURROGATE is
defined), then disable normal priority handling and use PIDs and
setpriority() instead. Depends on the thread to write its PID into
the place after the thread id right after thread creation.
2000-11-15 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* configure.in: Check for the sched.h header and include it on
gthread/gthread-posix.c if available.
* gthread-posix.c: Include <sched.h> if available.
* configure.in: Add -D_POSIX4_DRAFT_SOURCE to
GTHREAD_COMPILE_IMPL_DEFINES. Also add -D_POSIX4A_DRAFT10_SOURCE
to G_THREAD_CFLAGS. Really deploy GTHREAD_COMPILE_IMPL_DEFINES,
when searching for thread libs. Look for sched_* functions in
-lrte as well. All of that is necessary on DG/UX.
* configure.in: Use AC_TRY_COMPILE instead of AC_EGREP_HEADERS in
various places to make it work more reliable, to make it accept
macros instead of functions etc.
* configure.in: Replace some NULL's for checks with 0 to make it
work without stdio.h everywhere.
* configure.in, gutils.c: changed the test for getpwuid_r to first
test for a posix version and then for a non-posix version. No code
change in gutils.c. Again this change deals better with getpwuid_r
being a macro and not a function. Most of the above with kind help
from Tethys <tet@isengard.europe.dg.com>. This fixes Bug #13403.
Sun Nov 12 18:34:32 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
* gconvert.[ch]: Create wrapper functions for iconv()
so that we can transparently use the native iconv,
libiconv, or (in the future) a mini-iconv included
with glib.
* glib-config-2.0.in glib-2.0.pc.in: Include @ICONV_LIBS@
* INSTALL: Added note about libiconv.
* configure.in: Add checks for libiconv from pango. If
EILSEQ is not defined in errno.h add define for it into
glibconfig.h so g_iconv can use it. (Note, recompiling
from a system without EILSEQ to a system with EILSEQ
will break binary compatibility)
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.
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).
2000-10-12 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_*.
2000-09-30 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.
2000-09-30 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 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 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.
2000-09-21 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>.
Sun Sep 17 2000 Elliot Lee <sopwith@redhat.com>
* glib.h configure.in: Define g_alloca() as an alloca-that-works-anywhere.
* gconvert.c: Fix warnings which could have caused problems on 64-bit platforms.
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 Jul 26 05:47:48 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* configure.in:
* testglib.c:
* gstrfuncs.c:
* glib.h: added g_strlcat() and g_strlcpy() wrappers, supplied by
David Wheeler <dwheeler@ida.org>:
* glib.h, gstrfuncs.c: added g_strlcpy and g_strlcat to support
safe manipulation of fixed-length string buffers.
These functions were originally developed by Todd Miller to simplify
development of security-related programs, and
are available on many (but not all) Unix-like systems,
including OpenBSD, FreeBSD, and Solaris. See
ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/src/lib/libc/string/strlcpy.3
and http://www.openbsd.org/security.html.
If there's a strlcpy/strlcat on the system, it's called, otherwise
an implementation is provided.
* testglib.c: Added tests for g_strlcpy, g_strlcat.
Wed Jul 26 05:03:24 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* acglib.m4 (GLIB_SIZEOF): include <stdlib.h> and <stddef.h> if
STDC_HEADERS is defined.
* glib.h:
* glibconfig.h: define gsize and gssize in terms of GLIB_SIZEOF_SIZE_T
* glib.h (g_return_if_reached): applied darin's fix for copy'n
paste error in the macro implementation.
2000-07-19 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* configure.in, glib.h: glibconfig.h and glib.h now include files
outside of the extern "C" block. Makes some C++ compiler
happy. Reported by Denis Vakatov <vakatov@peony.nlm.nih.gov>.
* gmodule/gmodule.h: include glib.h before doing extern "C".
Makes some C++ compiler happy. Reported by Denis Vakatov
<vakatov@peony.nlm.nih.gov>.
Sat Jul 15 22:44:22 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
* configure.in: Add build/Makefile and
build/win32/Makefile to AC_OUTPUT() so things build
again.
Fri Jul 14 12:22:49 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
* configure.in Makefile.am glib-config.m4 glib.m4: Move
glib-config to glib-config-2.0 move glib.m4 to
glib-2.0.m4
* Makefile.am gobject/Makefile.am gmodule/Makefile.am
gthread/Makefile.am tests/Makefile.am: Change
library names to libglib-1.3.la, etc, so that we
can distinguish glib-1.2 and glib-2.0 on the linkline.
* Makefile.am gobject/Makefile.am gmodule/Makefile.am:
Move include files into /usr/include/glib-2.0.
Thu Jul 6 18:54:49 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
* docs/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove info files
from the build.
Thu Jul 6 15:35:28 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
* Release 1.3.1
* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Dist fixes.
* configure.in: Moderate the warnings just a little bit.
Mon May 29 14:10:35 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
* gutils.c (g_locale_get_codeset): Add function to get the
codeset name for the current locale.
* configure.in acconfig.h: Add check for nl_langinfo(CODESET);
Fri Apr 28 23:54:35 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* setup things for a new sub-library libgobject:
* Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): added gobject
* glib-config.in: feature -lgobject.
* configure.in (AC_OUTPUT): generate gobject/Makefile.
* glib.m4 (AM_PATH_GLIB): feature gobject module.
* glib.spec.in: added %{prefix}/lib/libgobject-1.3.so.*
Fri Apr 28 21:41:49 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* glib.h: added G_STRLOC macro.
G_STRUCT_OFFSET(): signedness corrections.
(G_CSET_DIGITS): list 0-9.
* gscanner.c (g_scanner_config_template): use G_CSET_DIGITS.
* glib.h:
* gstrfuncs.c:
(g_strdown):
(g_strup):
(g_strreverse): return the modified string instead of void, so
calls to these functions can be nested.
(g_strcanon): new function, canonicalizes string according to
a given character set.
Fri Apr 28 19:45:16 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* gasyncqueue.c (g_async_queue_unref): get rid of an unused variable.
2000-04-26 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* configure.in: Look for both pthread_create and pthread_join in
the thread library. Some systems define one of them, but not both
in libc. Arghh. Now we really start a thread and join it later and
check, whether the thread to actually ran.
2000-04-17 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* configure.in, acconfig.h: Add configure test for garbage
collector friendliness for GLib. If enabled, ENABLE_GC_FRIENDLY
will be defined.
* garray.c, ghash.c, glist.c, gmain.c, gmem.c, gnode.c, gqueue.c,
gslist.c, gtree.c: If ENABLE_GC_FRIENDLY is defined, NULLify all
memory released by the user, but cached by GLib. This lets a
garbage collector have a more correct view of the actually used
memory.
2000-03-23 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* configure.in: After finding the right thread library (containing
e.g. pthread_create) we now search for the right realtime library
(containing e.g. sched_get_priority_max). Makes the output of the
thread related libraries correct.
* gtimer.c (g_usleep): The current implementation of g_usleep
(simply calling select) doesn't work reliable for multi-threaded
programs on some platforms (bad omen for the main loop....), so I
changed the implementation for thread-using programs to wait for a
GCond for the specified amount of time (NB: sleep and usleep are
not MT-safe in general, because they often use signals).
2000-03-22 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* configure.in: Test for sched_yield as the native yield function
first. Corrected typo g_thread_sleep -> g_usleep. Corrected
message for the pthread_create test. Negative Priorities are
allowed (and used on Solaris), so consider
sched_get_priority_min failed only if it returns -1, not <0. Check
for sched_get_priority_min also in -lrt, if not found in -lpthread
alone and add -lrt to G_THREAD_LIBS then. Remove special case
handling of priorities for older solaris versions and posix
threads. Thanks to Wan-Teh Chang <wtc@netscape.com> for suggesting
some of those changes.
* config.guess, config.sub, ltconfig, ltmain.sh:
Upgrade to libtool 1.3.4.
2000-03-21 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* glib.h, configure.in, gutils.h: always define G_GNUC_EXTENSION,
even when not needed by GLib. That's actually also the way, the
GLib reference manual describes that macro. Therefore I had to
remove the lonesome #include <glibconfig.h> in gutils.c, which
doesn't seem to be needed there however. This change should make
Ben Gertzfield <che@debian.org> happy.
* gutils.c: Furthermore two warnings in gutils.c were voided,
which crept in due to my last change.

* configure.in: Added the missing POSIX_NO_YIELD and
POSIX_NO_PRIORITIES warning messages.
* configure.in: Use AC_TRY_RUN instead of AC_TRY_LINK, to test for
real thread support. On solaris pthread_create can be linked to
even in -lc, but it doesn't work then.
* configure.in: Don't use priorities for threads, when the
minimal/maximal priorities couldn't be determined at configure
time.
* configure.in, gthread.c: Always define GSystemThread in
glibconfig.h to represent a system thread.
* configure.in: Do not use native recursive threads, when
possibe. We use some features, that they do not expose (namely the
depth counter).
* glib.h, gthread.c: Redefined GStaticRecMutex. The functions are
now implemented in a different way, which should be way
faster. Alsothere are now functions g_static_rec_mutex_unlock_full
and g_static_rec_mutex_lock_full to leave/enter a recursive mutex
completly.
* gthread.c (g_thread_self): Do not test the system_thread to be
non-zero to speed things up.
* gthread.c (g_mutex_init): Therefore set the system_thread of the
main thread here.
* tests/thread-test.c: Rerun all tests once again, but this time
we fool the system into thinking, that the available thread system
is not native, but userprovided.
* gthread/gthread-posix.c: Don't use priorities for threads,
when the minimal/maximal priorities couldn't be determined at
configure time.
* gthread/gthread-posix.c: Don't check for errors, when
setting the scope of a tread to system, as some posix
implementations can't do that and we don't want the thing to
fail because of that.
