* configure.in: Dont complain, if --without-threads or
--with-threads=none is supplied; Test for pthread_attr_init
instead of pthread_cond_init, if threads seems to be supported by
standard glib. (CFLAGS): Use G_THREAD_CFLAGS for compiling of glib
as well.
* glib.h, gmutex.c: Changed private to private_key to avoid
problems when compiling with under C++.
branch. See the ChangeLog for details of the changes.
In brief overview:
- The set of threading functions can be set
- A default implementation is provided in -lgthread
- All static data structures are locked using these
functions if g_thread_init() is called.
Sat Dec 12 19:08:59 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* configure.in: always define G_HAVE_INLINE if __cplusplus is
defined, reported by Wan-Teh Chang <wtc@netscape.com>.

* gdate.c: s/time_t/GTime/ and s/g_print/g_message/
include time.h.
* glib.h: removed #include <time.h>, changed time_t paramter of
g_date_set_time() to time_t, changed struct tm parameter of
g_date_to_struct_tm to `gpointer struct_tm_p'. yes, this is not
nice, but including time.h actually breaks a bunch of code.

configure.in:
glib.spec: Updated to version 1.1.5
* Released GLib 1.1.5
* configure.in: use __extension__ for long long on gcc >= 2.8 and
egcs, and provide a G_GINT64_CONSTANT wrapper so -ansi -pedantic
compiles clean.
* glib.h: make the endian x86 asm __const__ so the compiler can do
better optimizations. Also remove the cc clobber, these shouldn't
be changing condition codes. Ditch some redundant casts. Add an
optimization for 64-bit endian conversions in x86. Use constant
wrapper for the generic method.
* testglib.c: use constant wrappers for 64-bit constants

1998-11-04 Phil Schwan <pschwan@cmu.edu>
* configure.in: Added 'strncasecmp' to the list of functions to be
searched for.
* glib.h: Added a prototype for 'g_strncasecmp'
* strfuncs.c: (g_strncasecmp) new function modeled closely after
'g_strcasecmp'
* glib.h
* configure.in: endian macros defined using the glibconfig.h mechanism now
* ghook.c: casts for GHookFunc and GHookCheckFunc to avoid warnings
-Yosh
* Makefile.am (glibconfig.h): New rule.
(stamp-gc-h): New rule. Generate `glibconfig.h'.
* configure.in (AM_CONFIG_HEADER): It is now `config.h'.
(HAVE_BROKEN_WCTYPE): On Solaris, look for iswalnum in -lw before
concluding "broken wctype".
(glibconfig.h): Use AC_OUTPUT_COMMANDS to put generation code into
config.status.
* glib.h: Remove a lot of tests and defines. All these have been
moved to `configure.in (glibconfig.h)'.
* gerror.c: Include <config.h>.
* gmem.c: Likewise.
* gstrfuncs.c: Likewise.
* gutils.c: Likewise.
This could cause some short term instability.
* glib.h: reimplemented the endian stuff, using inline asm for x86.
#define g_htonl and friends.
* testglib.c: new tests for the endian stuff
* configure.in: care for AIX in gmodule linker flags test (from Joel Becker
<jlbec@raleigh.ibm.com>). Check $host_os for linux instead of existance of
/usr/include/linux
* gutils.c: buh-bye evil warning. Thou hast been #ifdef'd out of thine
existance!

Tue Oct 27 03:00:50 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* glib.h: removed dummy structure definitions for struct _GCache,
_GTree, _GTimer, _GMemChunk, _GListAllocator and _GStringChunk.
* gutils.c: implement glib's inline functions _after_ all include
statements have been processed.
removed Tor's MAXPATHLEN check since there already was one supplied
further down in this file.
(LibMain): special cased the #ifdef __LCC__ case for NATIVE_WIN32,
since lcc maybe used on other platforms as well. why in hell is this
stuff required?
(g_get_any_init): for windows, if the user name is supplied, use it as
realname also.
in general, if there is no homedir specified, use the tmpdir that
we already figured.
* gtimer.c (g_timer_elapsed): changed a g_assert() statement to
g_return_if_fail().
* applied glib-tml-981020-0.patch for WIN32 portability, added some
comments and g_return_if_fail() statements, minor indentation fixes.
ChangeLog entry from Tor Lillqvist is appended.

1998-10-20: Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
* README.win32 glib.def gmodule.def
* glibconfig.h.win32 gmodule/gmoduleconf.h.win32:
New files for the Windows port. The .def files list exported
symbols for the Microsoft linker and compatibles.
* configure.in:
Added checks for some platform-dependent headers: pwd.h sys/param.h
sys/select.h sys/time.h sys/times.h unistd.h, and the function lstat.
* gerror.c:
Conditionalized inclusion of system-dependent headers. Changes
for Windows: no gdb to do a stack trace. Just call abort().
* glib.h:
Changes for Windows:
Added macros G_DIR_SEPARATOR, G_DIR_SEPARATOR_S for
platform-dependent file name syntax elements. Added macros
G_SEARCHPATH_SEPARATOR, G_SEARCHPATH_SEPARATOR_S for
platform-dependent search path syntax conventions.
Added pragmas for Microsoft C to make it more pedantic.
Marked GLib's global variables for export from DLL.
Added the function g_strescape that escapes backslashes.
Added functions g_path_is_absolute and g_path_skip_root to
handle platform-dependent file name syntax.
Added the function g_getenv that expands environment variables
that contain references to other environment variables, as is
typical on Windows NT.
Added the GIOChannel structure which is used to encapsulate the
IPC mechanism used by the GIMP's plug-ins, and possibly other
things later. On Unix a GIOChannel encapsulates just a file
descriptor. On Windows it contains a file handle from _pipe() and a
few other things related to the implementation of gdk_input_add
and GIMP plug-in communication. Subject to change.
Removed duplicate declarations of the version variables.
For the Microsoft compiler, declare own implementation of
ftruncate and the <dirent.h> functions.
* gmem.c:
Define a symbolic name for the profiling table size.
* gmessages.c:
Conditionalized inclusion of unistd.h. On Windows, output using
stdio to stdout.
* gscanner.c:
Conditionalized inclusion of unistd.h. Added changes for
Microsoft C. Added CR to the skipped character set. Added small
workaround for MSC compiler bug in g_scanner_cur_value.
* gstrfuncs.c:
Added the function g_strescape, which escapes the backslash
character. Needed especially when printing Windows filenames.
* gtimer.c:
Conditionalized inclusion of unistd.h and sys/time.h. Added
implementations for Windows.
* gutils.c:
Conditionalized inclusion of platform-dependent headers. Use
the platform-independent file name syntax macros.
Conditionalize code on platform-dependent features. Added the
functions g_path_is_absolute g_path_skip_root and g_getenv.
Added the GIOChannel-related functions. Added
compiler-dependent Unix compatibility functions for Windows.
* makefile.lcc makefile.msc:
New files. Compiler-specific makefiles for LCC-Win32 and
Microsoft C. Only Microsoft C is actually supported currently.
* testglib.c:
Added pathname check cases for Windows. Added workaround for
bug in the Microsoft runtime library. Improved some tests a bit.
Tue Oct 27 04:00:11 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* testgmodule.c (main): changed the #ifdef WIN32 test to NATIVE_WIN32,
this needs to be more constistent throughout the code, do we go for
NATIVE_WIN32 or WIN32?
* gmodule.c (LibMain): special cased the #ifdef __LCC__ case for
NATIVE_WIN32, since lcc maybe used on other platforms as well.
* libgplugin_a.c (LibMain):
* libgplugin_b.c (LibMain):
likewise. not sure i like this special requirement for lcc in here.
* gmodule-dl.c (_g_module_build_path):
feature empty "" directories and prepend the module name with "lib".
* gmodule-dld.c (_g_module_build_path):
* gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path):
feature empty "" directories.
* we need some more magic in the _g_module_build_path variants
so we don't append/prepend lib and .so, .sl or .dll for those names
that already contain it.
* applied patch from Tor Lillqvist for g_module_build_path() and
windows support.
1998-10-20: Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
* gmodule/gmodule-win32.c:
New file.
* gmodule/gmodule.c gmodule/gmodule.h:
Added the funcion g_module_build_path that builds the path to
a module file, decorating the name according to the system's
conventions. Added the Windows implementation.
* gmodule/libgplugin_a.c gmodule/libgplugin_b.c:
Added LibMain for LCC-Win32.
* gmodule/testgmodule.c:
Handle Windows dll names.

Wed Oct 21 19:22:58 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* configure.in (G_MODULE_HAVE_DLERROR): reverted part of the changes
from Sebastian Wilhelmi (1998-10-20). don't specify a specific loading
behaviour (i.e. RTLD_NOW) when we are not sure whether it is supplied.
changed the return value from (!f2 && f1) to (!f2 || f1) so we default
to not needing an underscore. reverted the extra plugin.c building,
because .lo files are not ELF libraries, this can't work. This needs
further investigation on Solaris...
Wed Oct 21 19:58:27 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* gmodule.c (g_module_symbol): fixed a string pointer bug that could
cause garbage error messages from g_module_symbol() for systems that
NEED_USCORE.
1998-10-20 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* configure.in: made the check for needed underscore in module's
func-names work on solaris. (G_MODULE_NEED_USCORE must be set
outside AC_CACHE_VAL, dlopen(0,0) refused to work on solaris).
Fri Sep 25 00:04:37 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* configure.in: version bump to 1.1.4, binary age 0, interface age 0.
* glib.h (struct _GScanner): dumped peeked_char and text_len in favour
of *text_end and *buffer for buffered read()s.
* gscanner.c: changed peeking and retrival of next character so we
have buffered reads. fixed minor bug with number parsing error
reporting. made some static!!! variables local ones (why did we use
static temporary variables in the lowlevel tokenization code anyways?).
Mon Sep 21 02:22:12 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* NEWS file update for upcoming release of GLib + GModule
version 1.1.3, binary age 0, interface age 0. (GModule uses
the same version numbers as GLib.)
* glib.h: swap the inclusion of of float.h and limits.h to work
around a egcs 1.1 oddity on Solaris 2.5.1 (fix provided by
Per Abrahamsen <abraham@dina.kvl.dk>).
* glib.h:
* gscanner.c: renamed the GValue union to GTokenValue, this should
not affect source compatibility in most cases.
* ghash.c: added some g_return_if_fail() statements. make
g_hash_table_lookup_node() an inline function so we save an extra
function invokation on lookups.
Mon Sep 21 01:54:48 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* gmodule.h:
* gmodule.c: renamed old _de_init functionality to _unload.
modules are now expected to export:
G_MODULE_EXPORT const gchar* g_module_check_init (GModule *module);
and
G_MODULE_EXPORT void g_module_unload (GModule *module);
returning a string other than NULL from g_module_check_init() will
prevent the module from being loaded. a call to g_module_make_resident()
from g_module_unload() will prevent the module from being unloaded and
still make it resident.
Mon Sep 7 07:53:21 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* configure.in: check for all three inline keywords individually.
* glib.h: inlining hassle. for compilers that don't allow the `inline'
keyword, mostly because of strict ANSI C compliance or dumbness, we try
to fall back to either `__inline__' or `__inline'.
we define G_CAN_INLINE, if the compiler seems to be actually *capable*
to do function inlining, in which case inline function bodys do make
sense. we also define G_INLINE_FUNC to properly export the function
prototypes if no inlinig can be performed. we special case most of the
stuff, so inline functions can have a normal implementation by defining
G_INLINE_FUNC to extern and G_CAN_INLINE to 1.
* ltconfig: (compiler PIC flag test): special case linux for non
aout systems to honour lcc's position independant code (cases
"linux*aout)" and "linux*)" got added). (this needs to go into
libtool which does an advanced test, checking for __LCC__).
* autogen.sh: take $CC=lcc into account by invoking automake with
--include-deps so lcc isn't scared by gcc's auto-dependancy
generation code. care about $ACLOCAL_FLAGS. optionally feature
autoheader.
* minor fixups in other places to cure some of lcc's warnings.
Mon Aug 24 02:08:56 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* glib.h:
* gstring.c:
* gstrfuncs.c:
(g_vsprintf): removed this function which was not publically
exported in glib.h. to export it, it should have been named
differently in the first place, since its semantics differ from
vsprintf(). apart from that, it was a possible cause for
problems since it worked on a previously allocated memory area and
was used in a lot places of glib. exporting it would have been a
guararant for problems with threaded programs.
(g_printf_string_upper_bound): exported this function to return
a string size, guarranteed to be big enough to hold the fully
expanded format+args string. added 'q', 'L' and 'll' flag handling.
in fact, the newly allocated area is in most cases much bigger than
required.
(g_strdup_vprintf()): new function returning a newly allocated string
containing the contents of *format and associated args (size is
calculated with g_printf_string_upper_bound()).
(g_strdup_printf): new function which wraps g_strdup_vprintf().
* configure.in: check for va_copy() or __va_copy() alternatively.
check whether va_lists can be copyied by value.
* glib.h: provide a definition for G_VA_COPY.
* glib.h:
* gmessages.c:
(g_logv):
(g_vsnprintf):
pass va_lists by value, not by reference, since this causes problems
on platforms that implement va_list as as arrays. internaly, use
G_VA_COPY (new_arg, org_arg); va_end (new_arg); to produce a second
va_list variable, if multiple passes are required. changed all
callers.
* glib.h:
* gerror.h:
renamed g_debug() to g_on_error_query(), cleaned up a bit.
renamed g_stack_trace() to g_on_error_stack_trace() since both
functions cluttered different namespaces.
there is an appropriate comment in glib.h now that explains the
unix and gdb specific dependencies of both functions.
removed g_attach_process().
g_on_error_stack_trace() should probably be handled with caution,
i've seem several different linux versions (2.0.x) become unstable
after invokation of this function.
Sun Aug 16 20:28:27 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* version bump to 1.1.3, binary age 0, interface age 0.
* glib.h: be nice to platforms that don't have gint64 and don't
issue #warning on every compilation. since glib doesn't require
gint64 itself, packages that need gint64 should test for this
themselves.
* glib.h:
* gutils.c: added a new function g_vsnprintf().
Fri Aug 14 16:41:53 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* glib.h: added static inline functions for bit mask tests:
g_bit_nth_lsf, g_bit_nth_msf and g_bit_storage.
Fri Aug 13 14:23:37 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* glib.h:
* gmessages.c:
revised the message handling system, which is now based on a new
mechanism g_log*. most of the assertment macros got adapted to
feature the new g_log() call with an additional specification of
the log level in a preprocessor macro G_LOG_DOMAIN. if G_LOG_DOMAIN
is undefined upon the includion of glib.h, it'll be defined with a
value of (NULL) and thus preserves the original bahaviour for
warning and error messages. the message handler setting functions
for g_warning, g_error and g_message are only provided for backwards
compatibility and might get removed somewhen.
* Makefile.am: feature the G_LOG_DOMAIN macro to set the log domain
to "GLib" upon compilation. we currently have to add this definition
to the DEFS variable.
* testglib.c: we need an ugly #undef G_LOG_DOMAIN at the start
of this file currently, since automake doesn't support per target
_CFLAGS yet.
* glib.h: changed some gints to gbooleans, made a few const corrections,
removed some superfluous G_STMT_START{}G_STMT_END wrappers, added some
in other required places.
* gnode.c:
(g_node_prepend):
(g_node_insert_before):
(g_node_insert):
(g_node_append_data):
(g_node_prepend_data):
(g_node_insert_data_before):
(g_node_insert_data):
(g_node_append):
return (node), so these macros/functions can be usefully chained with
g_node_new().

to "GModule" upon compilation. we currently have to add this definition
to the DEFS variable.
* testgmodule.c: we need an ugly #undef G_LOG_DOMAIN at the start

* configure.in: version bump to 1.1.1, binary age 1, interface age 0.
* NEWS: updates.
* README: updates.
* INSTALL: updates and fixes.
* COPYING: include the GNU LGPL, rather than shipping an empty file.
* AUTHORS: listed original authors here, and added people who made
significant improvements to glib.
* glib.h:
* gutils.c: implement g_get_current_dir() which returns a newly
allocated string, instead of a g_getcwd() variant that operates
on a static buffer.
export glib_interface_age and glib_binary_age.
as a convenience, macro definitions have been added for
g_node_insert_data, g_node_insert_data_before, g_node_append_data and
g_node_prepend_data.
* testglib.c: minor cleanups, print current dir.
* acinclude.m4: New file. Contains `libtool.m4' from libtool-1.2,
the version from which glib's libtool forked. Needed for people
who use post-1.2 alphas of libtool.

`echo -n' with AC_MSG_CHECKING.
(fd_set): Explain test for `fd_set' better.
