2000-01-25 Damon Chaplin <damon@karuna.freeserve.co.uk>
* tmpl/misc_utils.sgml: g_bit_nth_lsf/msf docs from
Nils Rennebarth <nils@ipe.uni-stuttgart.de>, and updates for
GVoidFunc & GFreeFunc.
Wed Jan 26 05:24:38 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* glib.h:
* gmain.c: s/current_time/dispatch_time/ for the dispatch() handlers.
refetch the current time after invocation of poll() to cover up for
the time spent in that function call.
Fri Jan 21 10:18:24 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
* glib.h (G_N_ELEMENTS): Added G_N_ELEMENTS macro to determine
the number of elements in an array.
found; this leads to an incorrect return value of g_module_symbol.]
2000-01-13 Martin Baulig <martin@home-of-linux.org>
* gmodule.c (g_module_open): Check whether `check_init' is not NULL
before we attempt to call it.
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.
1999-11-16 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* acconfig.h, config.h.win32.in, configure.in: Renamed
GLIB_SIZEOF_PTHREAD_T to GLIB_SIZEOF_SYSTEM_THREAD to reflect
changed meaning.
* configure.in: Cope with systems, that have a pthread_t type,
that is not a pointer. Hint from Karl Nelson
<kenelson@ece.ucdavis.edu>. Define GLIB_SIZEOF_SYSTEM_THREAD to 4
for Solaris. Cope with systems, that have no default mutex
initialize, like obviously most DCE systems.
* glib.h, gthread.c: Changed the prototype of thread_create and
thread_self to return the system thread into provided memory
instead of a return value. This is necessary, as HPUX has a
pthread_t, that is bigger than the biggest integral type there.
* gthread.c: system_thread is no longer a pointer, but an memory
area of size GLIB_SIZEOF_SYSTEM_THREAD. Changed the
zeroinitialization and the tests for zeroness accordingly.
1999-11-16 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* gthread-posix.c, gthread-solaris.c: Changed the prototype of
thread_create and thread_self to return the system thread into
provided memory instead of a return value. This is necessary, as
HPUX has a pthread_t, that is bigger than the biggest integral
type there. Made some more functions static.
* gthread-posix.c: Small fixes for DCE threads: Detaching has to
be done after thread creation for DCE.
1999-11-09 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* configure.in: Create docs/glib-config.1 from
docs/glib-config.1.in. Makes 'make distcheck' happy (and me too).
* glib-config.1: Removed from CVS, as it is a generated file.
1999-11-08 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* configure.in: Make the test for getpwuid_r work on newer AIX
versions, too. Still works on Solaris and Linux. Patch from Craig
Rodrigues <rodrigc@mediaone.net>.
2000-03-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
* gwin32.c (g_win32_error_message): New function that returns the
message string for a Win32 error code.
* glib.h: Declare it.
* glib.def: Export it, plus g_node_copy.
* gmodule-win32.c: Call g_win32_error_message() to get the error
message strings.
* libgplugin_a.c
* libgplugin_b.c
* gmodule.c: Remove LibMain functions that were needed by LCC,
which is not a supported compiler.
* testgmodule.c (main): Test for G_MODULE_IMPL ==
G_MODULE_IMPL_WIN32, not G_OS_WIN32.
* gmoduleconf.h.win32: Remove LCC stuff from here, too.
1999-11-08 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
* gwin32.c (g_win32_getlocale): Look at env vars LC_ALL, LC_CTYPE
and LANG first. Some refinements to the sublanguage logic.
1999-11-01 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
* glib.h
* glib.def: Rename Win32-only functions from gwin_* to g_win32_*
to match the GLib naming conventions.
* gutils.c
* gwin32.c
* testglib.c
* makefile.{cygwin,msc}: Move the Win32-only functions to the new
file gwin32.c
1999-10-31 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
* gcache.c (g_cache_remove): Don't crash if removing a nonexistent
value.
* gutils.c (gwin_getlocale): New Win32-specific function, returns
a Unixish current locale string (en, zh_TW etc).
* glib.h: Declare it.
* glib.def: Export it.
* testglib.c: Test it.
* gmessages.c (Win32: ensure_stdout_valid): Some improvements,
make sure we don't call AllocConsole several times, which I think
has happened.
Sun Oct 17 18:11:40 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* gdataset.c (g_data_set_internal): remove g_dataset_global_lock around
destroy() notification here as well.
1999-10-15 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* gdataset.c (g_datalist_clear_i): Avoid Freezing, when g_datalist
is called recursivly. Reported by Ola Andersson <rand@ling.umu.se>.
Tue Oct 12 14:17:12 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* glib.h: removed useless g_string(x) macro that cluttered the namespace
and was just a poor wrapper around the cpp '#' symbol, use #x if you
need to work around this.
added new macro G_STRINGIFY(arg) that will convert arg to a string,
no matter whether it contains macros or not.
1999-10-12 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
* config.h.win32.in: Define the new GLIB_SIZEOF_* constants here,
too.
* glib.h: Small Win32 comments improvement.
Tue Oct 12 12:16:12 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* gmessages.c (g_printf_string_upper_bound): completly new implementation
for printf string upper bounds calculation.
we handle all glibc 2.1 format specifiers now, except for positional
parameters (%nn$...) and wide char strings, plus some obscure upper
case variants of the standard conversions. this fixes a lot of
bugs in the old code, i.e.
- NULL format strings
- floats with exponents >+24
- %G
- precision specifications in general
- negative field widths
- %p for SIZEOF_VOID_P > 4 platforms
we now issue warnigns in places where the old code would have
caused buffer overruns anyways. warnings are suppressed when invoked
from glogv(), to avoid infinite recursions if someone passes a log
message that comes with really obscure format specifications.
Tue Oct 12 11:49:00 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* gstrfuncs.c: nuked old g_printf_string_upper_bound() version.
Tue Oct 12 03:34:40 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* glib.h: added GFloatIEEE754 and GDoubleIEEE754 unions to access sign,
mantissa and exponent of IEEE floats and doubles (required by the new
version of g_printf_string_upper_bound). the unions are endian specific,
we handle G_LITTLE_ENDIAN and G_BIG_ENDIAN as of currently. ieee floats
and doubles are supported (used for storage) by at least intel, ppc and
sparc, reference:

Mon Oct 11 18:01:49 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* configure.in: added additional checks to figure sizes of size_t,
ptrdiff_t and intmax_t (required by g_printf_string_upper_bound).
* glib.h: (Win32) Drop the mapping of POSIX function names to the
underscored versions, it's unnecessary after all. With MSVC we get
them from oldnames.lib, with gcc-2.95 and mingw32 from
-lmoldname-msvc. Add comment about what headers to include for
prototypes.
1999-10-05 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
* glibconfig.h.win32.in: Don't define WIN32 and NATIVE_WIN32.
* gerror.c (g_on_error_query): (Win32) Slightly more verbosity.
* build-dll: Don't strip.
* gmodule.h: (Win32) Use __declspec(dllexport) in G_MODULE_EXPORT
only with gcc.
Wed Sep 22 01:53:18 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* glib.h (NULL): define NULL as (0L) if __cplusplus is defined, to
avoid "ANSI C++ forbids implicit conversion from `void *' in argument
passing" errors upon NULL usage in C++ programs (gcc-2.95 is on crack
for erroring out on this, instead of just issueing a warning).
* glib.h (g_trash_stack_pop): use uncasted NULL again.
Fri Sep 17 10:24:45 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* gmem.c (g_mem_chunk_compute_size) (g_mem_chunk_new): applied patch
from Soeren Sandmann <sandmann@daimi.au.dk>, to force mem chunk's area
sizes to be a multitiple of atom_size, and to eliminate the MAX_MEM_AREA
restriction of 65536 bytes. we also catch cases where users pass an area
size < atom size with a return_if_fail statement now (which is ok,
because previously this lead to memory corruption anyways).
Mon Sep 13 23:25:59 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* gmessages.c (g_logv): in case we have to abort the program,
debugging is enabled and we are not called recursively, try
to abort with raise (SIGTRAP) first, so developers may ignore
certain failure conditions during debugging stage.
Thu Aug 26 15:09:36 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* Makefile.am:
* gmodule/Makefile.am:
* gthread/Makefile.am: added --export-dynamic so we can load dynmic
modules, (required, according to the libtool 1.3.3 docu).
1999-07-23 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* grand.c (g_rand_new): Use /dev/urandom, as it doesn't block,
which /dev/random might do. Do not XOR the time, when getting the
seed form /dev/urandom, as this is good itself. Prevent the
initial seed from being zero, which causes the PRNG to produce
only zeros. Hints from Colin Plumb <colin@pgp.com>.
* glib.h (g_trash_stack_push): Add a cast.
* gslist.c
* glist.c: Make the inline functions static inline, and add
separate extern wrappers. Not all compilers produce callable entry
points for inline functions, even if gcc does.
