After being away for about five months, I'm back working on
this... For now, still using same build setup for Win32. Probably
will change to not including version numbers in the import library
names, though. (But the DLL names would still include them,
possibly even also the micro version number.) That would be more
Unix-like. Also, will have to check out newest mingw tool versions
to see if the build-dll script now can be retired.
* makefile.mingw
* makefile.msc: New files, no need to generate from .in as
they don't contain references to automake variables.
* makefile.mingw.in
* makefile.msc.in: Removed.
* glib.rc.in: Remove
* glib/glib.rc.in: Moved here.
* Makefile.am
* glib/Makefile.am: Corresponding changes.
* glib/glib.def: Fix typo, add new entries.
* glib/gspawn-win32-helper.c: More debugging. Doesn't work
currently (or then it never has on Win2k, which I now use?)
* glib/gstrfuncs.c
* glib/gstrfuncs.h: Mark g_ascii_table for export/import on Win32.
* */makefile.mingw.in: Reflect new location of glib library.
2001-01-25 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
* makefile.mingw.in
* */makefile.mingw.in: Protect the rule to rebuild makefile.mingw
if makefile.mingw.in has changed with a check if said .in file
exists. (This rule is mainly a convenience for yours truly.)

* giowin32.c: Socket support rewritten. It was utterly broken, and
untested in fact. We still do use a thread for each socket being
watched, but instead of blocking in recv() (which of course was
plain stupid for sockets being liste()ed on), we block in
select(). The read method for sockets calls recv(). It is now
possible for the application to call accept(), recv() or send() in
the callback, just like on Unix. Tested with code kindly provided
by Andrew Lanoix.
Rename g_io_channel_win32_new_stream_socket() to
g_io_channel_win32_new_socket() as it isn't restricted to stream
sockets.
* gmain.c (g_poll): Related changes in the Win32 version of
g_poll(). When polling for messages, always do a PeekMessage()
first. We used to miss messages if several were posted between
calls to g_poll().
* giochannel.h: Improve Win32-related comments.
* gutf8.c: (Win32) Include <stdio.h> for sprintf.
* tests/gio-test.c: (Win32) Add tests for polling for Windows
messages.
* tests/makefile.mingw.in: Remove superfluous compilation command
line.
2001-01-06 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
* gconvert.c (g_locale_to_utf8, g_locale_from_utf8): Get len using
strlen() if arg is negative in the Win32 code, too.
* giowin32.c: Changes necessary to be able to run
mainloop-test. We can't close the fd that our (internal) reader
thread is sitting doing a blocking read() from. We must terminate
the thread first. Keep track of thread handle, and close it when
thread is dying. Start reader thread with the lower-level
CreateThread() instead of _beginthreadex() from the C runtime, in
order to be able to use TerminateThread(). Hopefuly this isn't
harmful.
* glib.def: Update.
* tests/makefile.{mingw,msc}.in (TESTS): Add mainloop-test and
unicode-encoding.
* tests/mainloop-test.c: Portability: <unistd.h>, need <fcntl.h>
on Win32.
* tests/unicode-encoding.c (process): Add missing "line" argument
to fail(). On Win32, convert UTF-16LE, as libiconv'c ivonf always
converts to UTF-16BE if we ask for unspecific UTF-16.
(main) Handle also '\r'.
2000-10-16 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
* giowin32.c (reader_thread): Some more debugging output.
(g_io_channel_win32_poll): Remove unused vars.
* gfileutils.c: Changes for Win32, with no unistd.h and no
S_ISLNK().
* gspawn-win32.c: Implementation of the g_spwan_* functions for
Win32. Due to the general non-Unixness of Win32, much of the
functionality that is relatively clean to implement on Unix, is
hard to do on Win32. We must use a separate helper program to
change directory, close extra file descriptors, redirect the std
ones, as needed, and only then start the child process. No child
process pid can be returned, unfortunately. Or if we used
CreateProcess directly, it probably could. (Now we use the spawnv*
functions from msvcrt.)
* glib.def: Add new entry points.
* glib.def
* giowin32.c: Remove g_io_channel_win32_wait_for_condition(),
g_io_channel_win32_poll() subsumes it.
* gbacktrace.h: G_BREAKPOINT for MSVC (on the ix86).
* gwin32.c (g_win32_getlocale): Use "sp" for
LANG_CROATIAN+SUBLANG_SERBIAN_LATIN.
* makefile.{mingw,msc}.in (glib_OBJECTS): Add new files.
Add gspawn-win32-helper.exe rule.
* tests/makefile.{mingw,msc}.in (TESTS): Add shell-test and
spawn-test.
* tests/spawn-test.c: (run_tests): On Win32, don't try to run
/bin/sh, but ipconfig (no special significance in choosing that,
just a program that outputs something to stdout).

Finally, a new and improved IO Channel and condition watch
implementation for Win32. Based on code provided by Craig Setera.
When watching file descriptors, for which there is no select()
like functionality on Win32 that would work on all Win32 platforms
for all types of file descriptors (including anonymous pipes), we
start a new thread that blocks while trying to read from the file
descriptor. When the read returns, a Win32 Event is signalled that
the polling routine eventually notices. Meanwhile, the data being
read is stored in a circular buffer, from where the IO channel's
read() method picks it up.
If the buffer fills up the reading thread has to wait for space
becoming available. For this another Win32 Event is used. The IO
Channel's read() method signals this when it has read some data
out of the buffer.
The separate reader thread(s), and the circular buffer(s) with
associated events mean lots of possibilities for fun parallellism
errors. But it seems to work OK, i.e. GIMP runs.
* gmain.c: Small changes to the Win32 polling function.
(g_main_win32_get_poll_func): New function. Perhaps it would be a
good idea to provide this on all platforms.
* giowin32.c: The bulk of the new implementation.
(g_io_channel_win32_wait_for_condition): New function. To be used
where on Unix one does a select() on the channel's fd, like
libgimp's gimp_extension_process(). Could be provided on all
platforms.
* glib.h: Update documentation for IO Channels on Win32. Remove
the declarations for the as of now obsolete old functions related
to IO Channels for pipes with "wakeup" messages.
* glib.def: Some new functions.
* tests/gio-test.c: New file, to test GIOChannel and main loop.
* tests/Makefile.am
* tests/makefile.mingw.in: Add it.
2000-07-15 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
* Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Include the "build" module in GLib, too,
to make it more self-contained. If your CVS client doesn't
automatically get it, do a cvs get build in glib.
* */makefile.mingw.in: Include make.mingw from build in the glib
source directory.
2000-05-13 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
* makefile.mingw.in
* tests/makefile.mingw.in
* build-dll: Rename makefile.cygwin(.in) to
makefile.mingw(.in), which better describes what it is. Move the
build of gmodule, gthread and gobject DLLs to makefiles in those
directories. Move resource file handling and build number bump to
build-dll, where it sits much cleaner.
* README.win32
* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Update accordingly.
* glib.h: Add G_PI, G_PI_2, G_PI_4, G_E, G_LN2, G_LN10 and
G_SQRT2. M_PI etc aren't necessarily in <math.h> in strict ISO C
implementations.
* glib.def: Add g_strcanon.
* gtree.c (g_tree_node_rotate_left): Remove unused variables.
* gwin32.c (g_win32_opendir): Remove unneeded statement.
gmodule:
* makefile.mingw.in: New file, with gmodule stuff
moved from ../makefile.mingw.in.
* Makefile.am: Add to EXTRA_DIST, and add rule to make makefile.mingw.
gobject:
* makefile.mingw.in
* gobject.def
* gobject.rc.in: New files, for Win32 (mingw) build.
* Makefile.am: Add to EXTRA_DIST. Add rules to produce the
corresponding non-*.in files.
* gtype.h: (Win32:) Mark _g_type_fundamental_last for
export/import from DLL.
gthread:
* makefile.mingw.in: New file, with gthread stuff moved from
../makefile.mingw.in.
* Makefile.am: Add to EXTRA_DIST, add rule to build makefile.mingw.
