* configure.in: Don't enforce shared library build only on
Windows. It might well make sense to build static libraries in
some use cases.
* glib/gutils.c: Don't compile the DllMain if building libglib
statically. Also in that case don't return NULL from
_glib_get_installation_directory(), but return the installation
directory of the program's .exe file.

* configure.in: Don't bother defining Autoconf variables for

* configure.in: Unfortunately the mingw implementations of
C99-style snprintf and vsnprintf don't seem to be quite good
enough, at least not in mingw-runtime-3.14. I don't know exactly
what the problem is, but it is related to floating point
formatting and decimal point vs. comma, and the symptoms show up
in some dialogs in GIMP, presumably also elsewhere. The simple
tests in AC_FUNC_VSNPRINTF_C99 and AC_FUNC_SNPRINTF_C99 aren't
rigorous enough to notice, though. So preset
ac_cv_func_vsnprintf_c99 and ac_cv_func_snprintf_c99 to "no".

* inotify/inotify-kernel.c:
* inotify/inotify-path.c:
* inotify/local_inotify.h: Removed.
* inotify/local_inotify_syscalls.h: Removed.
Removed the included copies of the inotify
headers. We now only use the <sys/inotify.h>
header which exists on modern systems.
This fixes problems on ARM and SH5 (#510448)
but is also generally much cleaner and future
safe. For instance, if other OSes add support
for inotify it should "just work".

Implement #491549: On Windows, always use the native API for

doubt that is worth worrying about.

posix_memalign() in case we actually are going to use it, because
we detected a compliant implementation (#328997).
* configure.in (enable_included_printf): don't include malloc.h when

* glib/gslice.[hc]: new slice allocator implementation.

* glib/gthread.[hc]: removed newly added private thread mem API.
* glib/gthreadinit.h:
* glib/gmessages.c:
* glib/gthread.c:
* glib/gmem.c: divided glib threading initialisation into three phases,
initialisation where private keys and messaging are not available (only
needed by gmem.c), initialisation without messaging but private keys
available (gslice.c, gmessage.c), and full fledged initialisers that
server the rest of glib. initialisation functions got renamed to reflect
the limitations of their corresponding phases.
* glib/gmem.c: removed memchunk code, defer allocations to
g_slice_* instead.
* glib/gmem.[hc]: removed g_slice_* skeletons.
* glib/glib.symbols: added g_slice_* symbols.

* configure.in: Add an --enable-iconv-cache option, and
default to disabling iconv caching on new enough glibc.
Somebody with access to Solaris systems will need to test
if opening/closing of iconv descriptors is enough of
a performance problem to warrant the caching on that
platform. Note that the caching is causing correctness
problems in some corner cases, thus turning it off
is desirable unless it has severe performance implications.

Make refcounting threadsafe by using atomic

* gobject.c: Use a recursive lock to protect the
notify queue.
(g_object_unref): Get rid of g_object_last_unref and
do the last unref handling in g_object_unref.
(g_object_ref, g_object_unref): Use atomic operations.
* gsignal.c (struct _HandlerMatch): Use a full integer
for the ref_count field.
(handler_ref, handler_unref_R): Use atomic operations.
* gparam.c (g_param_spec_ref, g_param_spec_unref):
Use atomic operations instead of a lock to make the
refcounting threadsafe.
* gclosure.c (g_closure_ref, g_closure_unref): Use atomic
operations. This is more complicated here, since the
refcount is stored in a bitfield, so we also have
to access all other bitfield members atomically.
* gsignal.c (handlers_find): Read the meta_marshal flag
of the closure atomically.
* tests/Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Add tests/refcount
* configure.in: Add tests/refcount
* tests/refcount/properties.c: Test property changes

Use atomic operations to make refcounting
threadsafe. (#166020, Wim Taymans)
2005-07-09 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
* configure.in: Don't use autoconf variables for the resource
object files on Win32 any longer. Instead handle that in the
Makefile.am files. Check for windres.
* glibconfig.h.win32.in: Minor tuning to match the
configure-produced glibconfig.h closely.
* */Makefile.am: Don't use the scripts in build/win32 to
compile the .rc file into a resource object file. (This means
we loose the build number increment magic, but I doubt it was
that useful anyway.) Instead use windres directly. To pass the
normal .o file produced by windres through libtool, which
wants .lo files, pass it directly to the linker using a -Wl
option.
* */*.rc.in: Thus replace BUILDNUMBER with 0.

2005-02-05 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
* configure.in (G_LIBS_EXTRA)
* glib/giowin32.c: I think we can include <winsock2.h> and link
with -lws2_32. Only Windows 95 originally didn't have Winsock 2,
and it's available as an update for it. Not that we use any actual
Winsock 2 -only features, but still, simpler to link directly with
ws2_32.dll instead of going through wsock32.dll.
