        from matthias which implements GType accessors for GValue.

        * gparamspecs.[hc]: applied patch from matthias which
        implements G_TYPE_PARAM_GTYPE.

        * gobject.[hc]:
        GUnowned: introduced a new object type that has an initially
        floating reference.
        g_object_compat_control(): allow setting of a floating flag handler.

Mon Aug  1 23:00:42 2005  Tim Janik  <timj@imendio.com>

        * gclosure.c: turned all modifications to the first 32 integer bits in a
        closure into atomic accesses. wrapped write accesses into special macros
        to keep the atomic modification logic in a single place. comment cleanups.

        * gclosure.h: made all atomicly accessed closure fields volatile.

        * gobject.h: made ref_count field volatile.

        * gobject.[ch] gobject.symbols: Add
        g_object_add/remove_toggle_ref() functions to get notification
        when a reference count is the last remaining reference; this
        enables better memory management for language bindings.

        * gparamspecs.[ch]: Add a new GParamSpecOverride type
        that is a pointer to a different paramspec in a parent
        class or interface.

        * gparam.[ch]: Add g_paramspec_get_redirect_target()
        which follows GParamSpecOverride to the real property.

        g_object_interface_install_property,
        g_object_interface_find_property,
        g_object_interface_list_properties(). Redirect virtually all
        publically exposed GParamSpec's to the redirect target if
        any. (->constructor is the exception.)

	being included directly except when compiling GObject.

	* gobject/gvaluecollector.h: Include glib-object.h so that
	this file can be included directly, since we don't
	include it _from_ glib-object.h.

	* gobject/gtype.c: Remove struct _GValue hack since we
	now include glib/gvaluecollector.h which simply pulls in
        glib-object.h.

Wed Mar  7 09:36:33 2001  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* gboxed.[hc]: changed prototype of g_boxed_type_register_static()
	to contain an optional init function and a hint at whether the
	boxed structure uses ref counting internally.
	added g_value_set_boxed_take_ownership().
	made G_TYPE_BOXED an abstract value type.

	* genums.[hc]: made G_TYPE_ENUM and G_TYPE_FLAGS abstract value
	types.

	* glib-genmarshal.c: argument type changes, preparation for third-party
	arg specification.

	* gobject.[hc]: cleaned up get/set property code.
	added g_strdup_value_contents() to improve warnings.

	* gparam.[hc]: added g_param_value_convert(), taking over responsibility
	of the old g_value_convert(). added G_PARAM_LAX_VALIDATION flag so
	validation alterations may be valid a part of the property setting
	process.

	* gparamspecs.[hc]: made value comparisons stable (for sort applications).
	added GParamSpecValueArray, a param spec for value arrays and
	GParamSpecClosure. nuked the value exchange functions and
	GParamSpecCCallback.

	* gtype.[hc]: catch unintialized usages of the type system with
	g_return_val_if_uninitialized(). introduced G_TYPE_FLAG_VALUE_ABSTRACT
	to flag types that introduce a value table, but can't be used for
	g_value_init(). cleaned up reserved type ids.

	* gvalue.[hc]: code cleanups and saner checking.
	nuked the value exchange API. implemented value transformations, we
	can't really "convert" values, rather transforms are an anylogy to
	C casts, real conversions need a param spec for validation, which is
	why g_param_value_convert() does real conversions now.

	* gvaluearray.[hc]: new files that implement a GValueArray, a struct
	that can hold inhomogeneous arrays of value (to that extend that it
	also allowes undefined values, i.e. G_VALUE_TYPE(value)==0).
	this is exposed to the type system as a boxed type.

	* gvaluetransform.c: new file implementing most of the former value
	exchange functions as single-sided transformations.

	* gvaluetypes.[hc]: nuked G_TYPE_CCALLBACK, added
	g_value_set_string_take_ownership().

	* *.h: s/G_IS_VALUE_/G_VALUE_HOLDS_/.

	* *.[hc]: many fixes and cleanups.

	* many warning improvements.

Tue Feb 27 18:35:15 2001  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* gobject.c (g_object_get_valist): urg, pass G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS
	into G_VALUE_LCOPY(), this needs proper documenting.

	* gparam.c: fixed G_PARAM_USER_MASK.

	* gtype.c (type_data_make_W):
	(type_data_last_unref_Wm): fixed invalid memory freeing.

	* gobject.c (g_object_last_unref): destroy signal handlers associated
	with object, right before finalization.

	* gsignal.c (g_signal_parse_name): catch destroyed nodes or signals
	that don't actually support details.

	* gobject.[hc]: got rid of property trailers. nuked GObject
	properties "data" and the "signal" variants.
	(g_object_connect): new convenience function to do multiple
	signal connections at once.
	(g_object_disconnect): likewise, for disconnections.

	* gparam.[hc] (g_param_spec_pool_lookup): took out trailer support.

	* gvalue.[hc]: marked g_value_fits_pointer() and g_value_peek_pointer()
	as private (the latter got renamed from g_value_get_as_pointer()).

Wed Mar  7 09:32:06 2001  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	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.

        * glib-object.h: added newly added gobject/ headers.

        * gmesage.c: print g_message() output to stderr instead of stdout.

Wed Oct 25 20:27:02 2000  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

        * gtype.c (g_type_free_instance): for the moment, freeing object
        structures will fill their memory portion with 0xAA. there's a
        FIXME there, remove this line at a later point.

Tue Oct 24 23:10:26 2000  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

        * glib-genmarshal.1:
        * glib-genmarshal.c: added publically installed marshaller generator.

        * gtype.h: added G_TYPE_INSTANCE_GET_INTERFACE() to retrive a certain
        interface VTable from instances.

Mon Oct 23 08:28:15 2000  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

        * gobject.[hc]: new functions for closure maintenance:
        (g_object_watch_closure): maintain validity of the object and
        the closure for objects that are used as data part of a closure.
        (g_cclosure_new_object): convenience function to create C closures
        that have an object as data argument.
        (g_closure_new_object): convenience function to create closures
        that have an object as data argument.

        * gclosure.[hc]: implementation of GClosure mechanism.
        a closure is basically an encapsulation of a callback function
        and its environment. ideally, most places supporting callback
        functions will simply take a GClosure* pointer and thus unify
        callback environments wrg destroy notification etc.
        GClosure provides destroy notifiers for arbitrary data pointers,
        reference counting, invalidation notification (it can be invalidated
        which is merely a deactivate state) and a marshallinbg abstraction.
        GCClosure is also provided in these files, they present a specialized
        GClosure implementation for C language callbacks.

        * genum.c: macro cleanups.

        * gboxed.[hc]: new files, for boxed type abstraction.
        (g_boxed_copy): copy a boxed structure
        (g_boxed_free): free a boxed structure
        (g_value_set_boxed):
        (g_value_get_boxed): standard GValue functions for boxed types
        (g_boxed_type_register_static): convenience function for easy
        introduction of new G_TYPE_BOXED derivatives.

        * gparam.[hc]: introduced g_param_type_register_static(), a short hand
        for creation of new GParamSpec derived types.

        * gtype.[hc]: many fixes, introduced ability to flag individual
        type nodes as ABSTRACT upon registration, added value_peek_pointer()
        to the value table to peek at GValue contents as a pointer for types
        that support this. fixed up GValue checks.

        * gvalue.[hc]: added g_value_fits_pointer() and g_value_get_as_pointer()
        to peek at the value contents as pointer.

        * *.[hc]: adaptions to type macro fixes and changes in the type
        registration API.

        * many const corrections over the place.

Sat Oct 21 02:49:56 2000  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

        * gtype.c (g_type_conforms_to): this function basically behaves like
        and is_a check, except that it _additionally_ features interfaces
        for instantiatable types. enforce this in the second branch as well
        (`type' conforms_to `type') even if `type' is not an interface type.

Fri Oct 20 15:31:04 2000  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

        * gvaluetypes.[hc]: added G_TYPE_POINTER implementation from jrb.

        * gtype.[hc]:
        * gobject.c:
        * gvaluetypes.c: added GTypeValueTable.value_peek_pointer and
        suitable implementations of this for G_TYPE_STRING, G_TYPE_OBJECT
        and G_TYPE_POINTER.

Mon Aug 21 04:13:37 2000  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

Fri Jun 23 17:20:26 2000  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

        * glib.h: define gstring in terms of gchar*. this typedef reflects
        the type name of the primitive G_TYPE_STRING in the gobject module.

Sat Jun 24 23:03:04 2000  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

        * gtype.[hc]: provide G_TYPE_CHAR, G_TYPE_UCHAR, G_TYPE_BOOLEAN,
        G_TYPE_INT, G_TYPE_UINT, G_TYPE_LONG, G_TYPE_ULONG, G_TYPE_FLOAT,
        G_TYPE_DOUBLE and G_TYPE_STRING fundamental types.
        added a GTypeValueTable* pointer to GTypeInfo structure for types
        to implement GValue handling functions.
        GTypeValueTable contains the following members:
          value_init(): initialize a GValue structure.
          value_free(): free GValue structure contents (optional).
          value_copy(): copy one GValue contents to another GValue structure of
          collect_type: varargs collection type for the first variable argument
          to be collected by collect_value().
          collect_value(): variable arguments collection function (optional).
          lcopy_type: varargs collection type for the first variable argument
          to be location copyied by lcopy_value().
          lcopy_value(): variable arguments location copy function (optional).
        g_type_value_table_peek(): new function to retrive the GTypeValueTable*
        for a type node. ValueTables get inherited from parent types, unless
        overridden through the GTypeInfo structure. internally, GTypeValueTable
        support means an added overhead of one pointer per static or used
        dynamic type node.
        g_type_add_class_cache_func(): provide a cache_func/data pair to be
        called  prior to a type nodes last_unref() function, this can be used
        to prevent premature class destruction. multiple installed cache_func()
        will be chained upon last_unref() untill one of them returns TRUE.
        the cache_func()s have to check the type id passed in to figure whether
        they actually wants to cache the class of this type (since any types are
        routed through the cache_func() chain).
        g_type_remove_class_cache_func(): remove a previously installed
        cache_func/data pair. the cache maintained by this function has to be
        clear when calling g_type_remove_class_cache_func() to avoid leaks.
        g_type_class_unref_uncached(): class unref function for cache_func()
        implementations, unreferences a class omitting the cache chain (and
        therefore unref->cache->unref->... loops).

        * gvaluetypes.[hc]: provide the value setters/getters for the primitive
        fundamental types boolean, char, uchar, int, uint, long, ulong, float,
        double and string.

        * gvalue.[hc]: provide G_TYPE_IS_VALUE() in terms of whether a
        GTypeValueTable is provided for this type.
        removed g_value_init_default(), g_value_validate(), g_value_defaults(),
        g_value_set_default() and g_values_cmp() as these are supplied by the
        GParamSpec API now.
        moved g_values_exchange() into the "implementation details" section,
        since it just provides the underlying functionality for
        g_value_convert().

        * gvaluecollector.h: renamed the varargs value container from
        GParamCValue to GTypeCValue as the value collection methods are
        supplied by the type system now.
        G_PARAM_COLLECT_VALUE() and G_PARAM_LCOPY_VALUE() got renamed to
        G_VALUE_COLLECT() and G_VALUE_LCOPY() and operate without a
        GParamSpec structure now.

        * genums.h: macros cleanups/fixes.

        * genum.c: provide G_TYPE_ENUM and G_TYPE_FLAGS type
        and assorted g_value_{s|g}et_{enum|flags}() implementations.

        * gobject.[hc]:
        provide G_IS_VALUE_OBJECT(), G_TYPE_OBJECT ValueTable methods
        and g_value_{s|g}et_object().

        * gparam.[hc]: reduced class to value_set_default(),
        value_validate() and values_cmp(). also parameters now need to fill
        in a GType value_type; field to indicate the GValue type they
        are handling. provide g_param_value_set_default(),
        g_param_value_defaults(), g_param_value_validate() and
        g_param_values_cmp().

        * gparamspecs.[hc]: got rid of the g_value_* functions and
        the G_IS_VALUE_* macros. adapted param spec implementations
        according to the GParamSpecClass changes.

	* glib-gobject.[hc]: GObject implementation, that is facilities
	for setting/getting quarked data and reference counting.

	* glib-gparamspecs.[hc]: first actuall parameter implementations
	for GLib, so far we have: char, uchar, bool, int, uint, long,
	ulong, enum, flags, float, double, string and object. each of these
	GParamSpecs is a new instantiatable type in its own respect,
	so the .c file derives 13 new types from G_TYPE_PARAM and
	defines over 50 (*2) conversion facilities.

	* glib-gvaluecollector.h: generic varargs handling stubs for
	GParamSpecs, private header file (does get installed for
	inclusion into user code though).

	* glib-gvalue.[hc]: GValue functionality implementation.

	* glib-gparam.[hc]: basis GParamSpec implementation for
	the virtual base type G_TYPE_PARAM.

	* glib-extra.[hc]: GLib additions, including 1.3 compatibility
	routines and various other functions, from string manipulation
	over list manipulation up to a unix signal GSource.

	* glib-gtype.[hc]: GLib Type System implementation, heavily
	based on BSE's dynamic type system.
