Rather than having bindings use g_function_info_invoke, which is basically
a toy/demo API, export a convenience utility function which takes the introspection
information and sets up things we need to pass to libffi.
Then invocation can be done directly to libffi by a binding.
As part of this work, remove some (unused by gjs) public functions from the
girffi API, and instead export a function to map to libffi which can work
semi-correctly.

This change makes us stop calling g_irepository_get_default inside ginfo.c,
which won't work for non-default repositories.
Change GIBaseInfo to not only keep track of its source repository,
we hold a reference. This makes memmgt much clearer.
svn path=/trunk/; revision=970
Add convenience functions g_field_info_set_field() and
g_field_info_get_field() to set and get fields based on the offsets
in GIFieldInfo.

girnode.h: Store the total size and alignment for
GIrNodeStruct/Boxed/Union.
giroffset.c: New file implementing computation of structure
field offsets.
girnode.c: Compute structure field offsets before writing types
into the typelib.
docs/typelib-format.txt: Document that a field offset of 0xFFFF
means "unknown". Also fix description of the discriminator_offset
field for unions.
svn path=/trunk/; revision=876
Extract a function to convert GITypeTag to ffi_type from the internals
of ginvoke.c. This will be useful in figure out structure alignment.
Also fix handling of gsize and time_t to be portable. (Add a check
to configure.ac to figure out the width of time_t.)

Make g-ir-scanner work on Windows. Still problems with the typelib
code. Changes okayed by jdahlin.
* configure.ac: Check for Windows, set Automake conditional
OS_WIN32. Change backslashes to forward slashes in pyexecdir to
avoid shell quoting issues
* girepository/Makefile.am: Use -no-undefined so that libtool
agrees to build a shared library on Windows.
* girepository/girparser.c (backtrace_stderr): No backtrace() on
Windows. Empty implementation on Windows so far.
* girepository/gtypelib.c (g_typelib_check_sanity): Give more
informative error message for the assertion failures. Tell also
what the expected size of the struct is. Check all sizes first and
fail afterwards if at least one size was different from expected.
* tools/Makefile.am: Reorder libraries into proper logical
dependency order.
* tools/generate.c: Don't include <dlfcn.h>, not used.
* giscanner/Makefile.am: On Windows, link with the Python library,
and install the module DLL as _giscanner.pyd. Remove the
unnecessary import library and libtool library that libtool has
installed.
* giscanner/scannerlexer.l: Recognize the gcc __attribute__ syntax
and just skip it. Recognize also two "l" suffixes for long long
constants. Recognize also __inline__.
* giscanner/grealpath.h (g_realpath): Implement on Windows, using
GetFullPathName(). As such, GetFullPathName() does more than the
UNIX realpath(). It also changes relative paths into absolute
paths. But for our purposes that shouldn't matter.
* giscanner/giscannermodule.c (pygi_source_scanner_parse_file): On
Windows the file descriptor passed to us is from Python. Python
Python2.5 uses the msvcr71.dll C library, while mingw-built code
uses msvcrt.dll. On Windows, file descriptors are specific to
which C library is used. So we must find out what underlying OS
handle corresponds to the file descriptor Python passes us, and
then make that into a file descriptor valid for the C library this
code uses.
* giscanner/sourcescanner.py (_parse): Don't need to bypass
__attribute__ as the lexer now handles it. The definition as empty
was ineffective for mingw anyway, as mingw's _mingw.h undefines
__attribute__. Close the temp file before unlinking it.
* giscanner/cgobject.py: Use correct library name for the gobject
DLL on Windows.
* gir/Makefile.am: Must pass the full basename of the DLLs on
Windows to g-ir-scanner. It's a bit ugly that we have to "know"
that the names of the GLib DLLs are like libglib-2.0-0.dll, but in
reality they won't change, until there is a GLib 3, and then also
the Unix code here needs changing.
Must pass CPPFLAGS to g-ir-scanner when building GLib.gir so that
libintl.h is found.

* gir/Makefile.am: Rename .gir files using GI namespace.
* girepository/girepository.c: Use XDG_DATA_DIRS for
looking up typelibs. Also typelibs are now suffixed
with .typelib.
* tests/invoke/Makefile.am: Only use metadata.
* girepository/Makefile.am: Remove unnecessary include.
* tests/scanner/Makefile.am: Update using GI namespaces
for scanner includes.

2008-07-24 Colin Walters <walters@verbum.org>
* girepository/girepository.c (g_irepository_register): Add
environment variable G_IREPOSITORY_VERBOSE so we can print
out what we're doing.
* girepository/girepository.c (g_irepository_register_file):
Add GError error message to g_debug call.

* Makefile.am:
* configure.ac:
* girepository/Makefile.am:
* giscanner/transformer.py:
* gobject-introspection-1.0.pc.in:
* gobject-introspection.pc.in:
* tools/Makefile.am:
Rename pkg-config name to gobject-introspection-1.0,
Do not installed anything which is not using the gir format.
Disable compililation the old C scanner, but still keep the source
until all the remaning functionallity has been ported.

* configure.ac: Take advantage of a libffi.pc if one exists, as it
does on Fedora 8. Make libffi a hard requirement, since it was in
practice anyway (was not really conditional in the code or
makefile, only in configure).

* gcov.mak:
* girepository/Makefile.am:
* tools/Makefile.am:
Rename GCOV_SOURCES to GCOVSOURCES to top automake complaining.
