Tue Sep 8 05:04:06 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* glib.h: abandon the use of ATEXIT(), we keep the fallback
macros for backwards compatibility. people ought to use g_atexit().
* gutils.c (g_atexit): new function to take over the implementation
of ATEXIT. this function is guarranteed to succeed, similar to
g_malloc().
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.
Sat Sep 5 04:40:02 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* glib.h:
(g_chunk_new0): use g_mem_chunk_alloc0() to allocate the memchunk,
so the correct size of the memchunk is allocated with 0's and not
a memory portion of the size of the desired type.
* gmem.c: new function g_mem_chunk_alloc0() which will initialize
a memory area allocated with g_mem_chunk_alloc() with 0's.
Wed Aug 26 06:32:40 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* glib.h:
* gstrfuncs.c: new function g_strnfill() to return a new string
of specified length, filled with a specific character.
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.
Tue Aug 18 04:40:17 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* glib.h:
* gmessages.c: new function g_log_set_always_fatal() to set an
additional fatal_mask for log levels that are considered to be fatal
globally (required by gtk). since this mask is not domain-associated,
it is restricted to the log levels, introduced by glib itself.
* gmem.c:
* grel.c:
* gtree.c (g_tree_node_check):
don't use g_print() calls for informational/debugging output,
but log all this stuff through g_log() with G_LOG_LEVEL_INFO.
libraries shouldn't use printf(), g_print() or g_printerr() at all.
Tue Aug 18 02:46:44 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* glib.h (__STRICT_ANSI__): if __STRICT_ANSI__ is defined, make
`inline' a noop, since strict ANSI rules don't permit `inline'.
Sun Aug 16 23:23:46 CDT 1998 Shawn T. Amundson <amundson@gtk.org>
* Released GLib 1.1.3
* gmodule/Makefile.am: added gmodule-dl.c and gmodule-dld.c to
EXTRA_DIST
* glib.spec: version = 1.1.3
Mon Aug 17 01:46:14 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* glib.m4: feature an extra MODULES parameter, so glib-config can
be invoked with the "gmodule" argument.
* glib.h: changed the log level to G_LOG_LEVEL_CRITICAL for all
g_return*_if_fail statements, and made them issue a message
like "assertion `%s' failed".
* gmessages.c (g_logv): ugh, don't pass log_domain as NULL to
g_log_find_domain.
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().
[GModule]
Fri Aug 14 02:24:39 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* Makefile.am: feature the G_LOG_DOMAIN macro to set the log domain
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
of this file currently, since automake doesn't support per target
_CFLAGS yet.
Mon Aug 10 02:17:19 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* Makefile.am: minor hack to cause SUBDIRS (gmodule) to be build
last. we do this by making all-recursive-am depend on all-am.
Mon Aug 10 02:18:31 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* Makefile.am (lib_LTLIBRARIES): for now, skip the dependency on
-lglib for libgmodule-1.1.la, libgplugin_a.la and libgplugin_b.la
since this clashes with inter-library-dependencies for not installed
libraries. glib-config takes care of this for the usuall case, but
there needs to be a better way...
Wed Aug 05 01:15:36 1998 George Lebl <jirka@5z.com>
* testglib.c: fix 64-bitness in g_prints, sizeof doesn't
seem to return int so I cast it for printing, probably
just cosmetic
Tue Aug 4 15:17:54 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* 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.
Mon Aug 3 16:02:26 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* glib.h:
* gnode.c: change order of gpointer data; field in struct _GNode to
be partly binary compatible with GList and GSList.
Fri Jul 31 22:17:05 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* testglib.c (g_node_test): added a GNode test.
Fri Jul 31 09:08:16 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* Makefile.am: compile gnode.c.
* glib.h:
* gnode.c: added implementation of n-way trees.
* gtree.c (g_tree_traverse): added a warning to the switch() statement
which says that G_LEVEL_ORDER is not implemented.
Mon Jul 27 01:02:27 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* glib.h: #if 0'ed out the GTime definition, until it is definitively
needed. #if 0'ed out the g_getcwd() version, because it is the wrong
implementation.
DANGER WILL ROBINSON!
Ok, normally I don't do things like this, but this one is simple to reverse.
On NetBSD, /usr/include/time.h defines gtime. This conflicts with gtime in
glib.h. HENCE, I changed the glib.h gtime to g_time. If this is wrong, please
put in a more proper fix.
Thanks,
Mark Crichton
<mcrichto@purdue.edu>
Thu Jul 23 00:29:14 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* glib.h:
* gscanner.c: new functions to make a scanner scope sensitive wrt
symbol lookups.
g_scanner_scope_foreach_symbol, g_scanner_scope_lookup_symbol,
g_scanner_scope_remove_symbol, g_scanner_scope_add_symbol and
g_scanner_set_scope.
g_scanner_add_symbol, g_scanner_remove_symbol and
g_scanner_foreach_symbol are now aliases for scope 0.
Fri Jul 10 06:33:43 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* glib.h:
* gutils.h: added a bunch of utility/wrapper functions:
g_basename(), g_getcwd(), g_get_user_name(), g_get_real_name(),
g_get_home_dir(), g_get_tmp_dir(), g_get_prgname() and g_set_prgname().
* gutils.c: removed all g_str* functions.
* gstrfuncs.c: moved the bunch g_str* functions from gutils.c in this
place. this file shall never include <stdlib.h> to avoid clashes for
some of the g_str* functions on some OSes.
Tue Jun 30 11:58:25 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* gscanner.c (g_scanner_unexp_token): take symbol_2_token into
account. react on valid/invalid string pairs.
Fri Jun 19 03:11:02 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* gdataset.c: removed g_dataset_try_key, g_dataset_force_id and
g_dataset_retrive_key in favour of GQuarks.
a GQuark is an numeric id wich is associated with a certain string.
(g_quark_try_string): try to get the quark associated with this string,
if the lookup failed return 0.
(g_quark_from_string): get the associated quark for a string, if there
isn't currently a GQuark associated with this string, then allocate a
new quark and return that.
(g_quark_from_static_string): like the above function, but the string
isn't strdup()ed to save memory.
(g_quark_to_string): get the string that is associated with a certain
GQuark.
* gdataset.c (g_dataset_id_set_data_full): invoke the destroy function
_after_ the new data has been setup.
Thu Jun 18 02:35:21 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@gtk.org>
* glib.h: Changed messages for g_return_[val]_if_fail to
be somewhat more clear: assertion "blah" failed.
