Improvements pointed out by Behdad Esfahbod (#314460):
* glib/tmpl/strings.sgml: Fix up some character/byte
sloppyness.
* glib/tmpl/iochannels.sgml: Don't mention deprecated
functions in the introduction.
2005-05-05 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
* 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.
(http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-devel-list/2005-April/msg00095.html)
2005-05-05 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
* glib/gdataset.[ch] glib/gdatasetprivate.h: Add
g_datalist_set/unset_flags(), g_datalist_get_flags() functions
to squeeze some bits into a GDataSet... this is needed for
efficient implementation of toggle references in GObject.
* tests/gobject/references.c tests/gobject/Makefile.am:
Add a test case for weak and toggle references.
* glib/gfileutils.[ch]: Rename g_file_replace() back
to g_file_set_contents().
* glib/glib.symbols: Update.

* glib/Makefile.am glib/glib-sections.txt gobject/gobject-sections.txt:
Update
* gobject/tmpl/objects.sgml: Document toggle-references.
* glib/tmpl/strings.sgml:
* glib/tmpl/scanner.sgml:
* glib/tmpl/main.sgml:
* glib/tmpl/macros_misc.sgml:
* glib/tmpl/hash_tables.sgml: Add Since and Deprecation info
for symbols documented in the templates.
* glib/gstrfuncs.c (g_strncasecmp): Break long deprecation
info into two paragraphs.
* glib/gutils.c:
* glib/gtree.c:
* glib/gstring.c:
* glib/gstrfuncs.c:
* glib/giochannel.c: Move some docs inline, and add deprecation
information. To see the list of affected functions, grep for
"Deprecated:".

* glib/tmpl/string_utils.sgml:
* glib/tmpl/misc_utils.sgml: Move some docs inline.
Mon Oct 1 15:59:46 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
* glib/tmpl/strings.sgml docs/glib-sections.txt: Rename
g_string_printfa(). to g_string_append_printf().
Sat Jun 30 12:49:26 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
Patch from Darin Adler (#54166)
* glib/gstrfuncs.[ch]: Add ascii-only, locale-insensitive
g_ascii_to[lower/upper], g_ascii_str[down/up],
g_ascii_is[upper/lower] and deprecate the locale-affected
versions which break for UTF-8, etc. Make
g_ascii_strup/strdown duplicating,
not in-place for consistency with UTF-8 functions.
* glib/gstring.[ch]: Add ascii-only, locale-insensitive
g_string_ascii_[down/up], and deprecate the locale-affected
versions which break for UTF-8, etc.
* glib/gutils.c glib/gwin32.c test/testglib.c: Use
the g_ascii_* functions where appropriate.
* glib/gstring.[ch] (g_string_set_size): Add function to
allow setting the length of a string greater than the
current length (for buffering usage)
* glib/gstring.[ch]: Expose string->allocated_len, since
that is useful when using GString simply as a buffer.
(Renamed from string->alloc)
* glib/giochannel.[ch] glib/giounix.c glib/giowin32.c:
Major patch from Hidetoshi Tajima and Ron Steinke
reworking GIOChannel to have:
- Buffering
- Sane and useful error reporting
- Streaming encoding conversion with iconv
- Convenience functions to read by lines or
an entire file.
Also fix remaining 64 bit cleanliness issues.
* tests/iochannel-test.c tests/Makefile.am: Test case
for IO channel streaming conversion. Still needs
some fixing up.
Wed Jun 20 12:00:54 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
Changes for 64-bit cleanliness, loosely based on patch
from Mark Murnane.
* gconvert.c (g_convert/g_convert_with_fallback): Remove
workarounds for since-fixed GNU libc bugs. Minor
doc fix.
* gconvert.[ch]: Change gint to gsize/gssize as
appropriate.
* gconvert.c (g_locale/filename_to/from_utf8): Fix incorrect
computation of bytes_read / bytes_written.
* gfileutils.[ch] (g_file_get_contents): Make length
out parameter 'gsize *len'.
* ghook.c (g_hook_compare_ids): Don't compare a
and b as 'a - b'.
* gmacros.h (GSIZE_TO_POINTER): Add GPOINTER_TO_SIZE,
GSIZE_TO_POINTER.
* gmain.c (g_timeout_prepare): Rewrite to avoid
overflows. (Fixes bug when system clock skews
backwards more than 24 days.)
* gmarkup.[ch]: Make lengths passed to callbacks
gsize, length for g_markup_parse-context_parse(),
g_markup_escape_text() gssize.
* gmessages.[ch] (g_printf_string_upper_bound): Change
return value to gsize.
* gmessages.c (printf_string_upper_bound): Remove
a ridiculous use of 'inline' on a 300 line function.
* gstring.[ch]: Represent size of string as a gsize,
not gint. Make parameters to functions take gsize,
or gssize where -1 is allowed.
* gstring.c (g_string_erase): Make
g_string_erase (string, pos, -1) a synonym for
g_string_truncate for consistency with other G*
APIs.
* gstrfuncs.[ch]: Make all functions taking a string
length, take a gsize, or gssize if -1 is allowed.
(g_strstr_len, g_strrstr_len). Also fix some boundary
conditions in g_str[r]str[_len].
* gutf8.c tests/unicode-encoding.c: Make parameters that
are byte lengths gsize, gssize as appropriate. Make
character offsets, other counts, glong.
* gasyncqueue.c gcompletion.c
timeloop.c timeloop-basic.c gutils.c gspawn.c.
Small 64 bit cleanliness fixups.
* glist.c (g_list_sort2, g_list_sort_real): Fix functions
that should have been static.
* gdate.c (g_date_fill_parse_tokens): Fix extra
declaration that was shadowing another.
* tests/module-test.c: Include string.h
Mon Jun 18 15:43:29 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
* gutf8.c (g_get_charset): Make argument
G_CONST_RETURN char **.
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>
* glib-object.h: add gvaluearray.h.
* gstring.[hc]: fixup naming of g_string_sprint*.
* gtypes.h: fixed GCompareDataFunc naming.
Wed Mar 7 09:33:27 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* gobject/Makefile.am: shuffled rules to avoid excessive
rebuilds.
* gobject/gobject-sections.txt: updates.
* gobject/tmpl/*: bunch of updates, added another patch
from Eric Lemings <eric.b.lemings@lmco.com>.
Fri Dec 29 14:53:18 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* configure.in: we can't grow _cv_ variables by using a backticked
expr that refers back to the variable (glib_cv_sizeof_system_thread for
G_THREAD_USE_PID_SURROGATE), that'd keep the variable growing every time
it's evaluated. quantum states, anyone?)
Mon Dec 11 04:44:11 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* gboxed.c: fixed dealing with collection/lcopy of NULL values.
* gclosure.h: removed insane ramblings, added G_CALLBACK() a casting
convenience macro.
* Makefile.am: cleanups, marshaller generation rules.
* gmarshal.[hc]: new files with GRuntime standard marshallers.
* glib-genmarshal.c: fix log domain, support gruntime standard
marshallers, suport G_TYPE_PARAM, come with extern "C" and
#include gmarshal.h.
* glib-genmarshal.1: reflect glib-genmarshal.c updates.
* gobject.[hc]: implement object constructor. rework parameter
changed notification queueing, we support queue freezes now and
don't dispatch from an idle handler anymore.
parameter->property rename hassle.
implemented ::properties_changed and ::notify::* signals for
property change notification (the later supports property names
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.
2000-10-31 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* glib/tmpl/linked_lists_single.sgml: This time the right fix.
* glib/tmpl/scanner.sgml, glib/tmpl/strings.sgml: Changed
parameter names.
* glib/tmpl/string_utils.sgml: Corrected the documentation of
g_strescape and added those of g_strcompress.
Thu Sep 7 12:35:35 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
* Some further makefile improvement.
* Restore all the docs that mysteriously vanished earlier.
Wed Sep 6 10:59:45 2000 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
* gobject/Makefile.am glib/Makefile.am: Improve
separation of generic non-generic parts and dependencies.
