1999-07-07 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* configure.in: Test for pthread_join rather than for
pthread_create to determine the right thread-lib. Makes it work on
mips-sgi-irix6.5. Hitn from to Jari Vuoksenranta
<javu@piano.ux.phys.jyu.fi>.
1999-07-01 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* configure.in, acconfig.h, gutils.c: Added a g_memmove
replacement for platforms without memmove, where bcopy can't
handle overlapping copies and the corresponding checks, which is
taken form the PERL Configure routine.
* glib.h: Updated the commentary about g_memmove to be right and
more GLib-like.
* configure.in: Removed test for rand_r, as it isn't used anymore.
* README.win32: Update the pthreads snapshot version we want.
Advice how to hand-expand the makefile.*.in files.
* config.h.win32.in: Define values needed by Sebastian Wilhelmi's
new thread stuff.
* glib.def: Add new functions.
* glibconfig.h.win32.in: Update the pthreads snapshot version.
Fix typo.
* gthread.c: Include config.h, guard inclusion of unistd.h. When
using gcc on Win32, g_thread_functions_for_glib_use must be marked
for export here, too.
* gtimer.c: Implement g_usleep on native Win32 using Sleep (which
only has millisecond granularity, though).
* makefile.cygwin.in
* makefile.msc.in: Update pthreads snapshot version. File
name changes. Remove testgthread.
* tests/makefile.cygwin.in
* tests/makefile.msc.in: Add thread-test. Link with gthread lib.
* gthread-posix.c: Guard pthread_attr_setscope call with test
for _POSIX_THREAD_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING, which should be defined
in a <pthread.h> that supports that feature.
1999-06-17 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* configure.in, acglib.m4, acconfig.h, glib.h, gthread.c:
Completed the thread support in GLib. Thread creation,
prioritizing threads, yielding, joining threads as well as
reader/writer locks and recursive mutexes are now in place. Please
test heavily on your platform. It is so far tested on
Linux/i386/pthreads, Solaris/Sparc/pthreads and
Solaris/Sparc/solaristhreads.
* gtimer.c, glib.h: Implement g_usleep (gulong microseconds) for
thread safe sleeping. (sleep() is not MT-safe at all!)
* gutils.c: Avoid compiler warning.
* tests/Makefile.am, tests/thread-test.c: New program to test some
aspects of the thread implementation.
* gthread.c, Makefile.am: Renamed from gmutex.c to reflect the
change of content.
* configure.in: Purged all appearances of nspr.
* gthread/gthread-posix.c, gthread-solaris.c: Added the native
implementations for the GLib's extended thread support.
* gthread/gthread-nspr.c: Removed for good. NSPR is nothing we
would want to build upon.
* gthread/gthread.c: Renamed to gthread-impl.c to avoid
confusion with ../gthread.c (Formerly known as the file called
gmutex.c)
* gthread/testgthread.c: Removed. The new and much extended
tests are in ../tests/thread-test.c.
* gthread/Makefile.am: Changed to reflect the changes above.
* glib.h (Win32): Map fileno to _fileno for mingw32. Map fstat to
_fstat.
* README.win32: Advice also to remove -lmoldname from the
patch to the egcs-1.1.2 spec file patch.
* Makefile.am tests/Makefile.am: Correct rules for making the
win32-related files that are made from corresponding .in files.
Is there a cleaner way than explicitly writing rules that invoke
config.status?

* configure.in
gerror.c

* makefile.msc.in makefile.cygwin.in glibconfig.h.win32.in
config.h.win32.in tests/makefile.msc.in tests/makefile.cygwin.in:
New files, used to generate corresponding non-.in files when
making a dist. This is just so the version numbers will be kept in
synch automatically.
* configure.in: Also substitute @GLIB_MAJOR_VERSION@,
@GLIB_MINOR_VERSION@, and @GLIB_INTERFACE_AGE@.
* Makefile.am tests/Makefile.am: Also distribute makefile.cygwin.
* gerror.c (g_on_error_query): On Win32, put up a MessageBox and
then exit.
* glib.def: Add a couple of functions.
* README.win32: More editing.
* build-dll: Use gcc, not ld to link.
* glib.h: On native Win32 use _unlink().
* gscanner.c: Use corrent NATIVE_WIN32 feature test macro,
not _MSC_VER.
* gstring.c: Include <io.h> on Win32 for _read prototype.
* gutils.c: Remove old IO channel code (was in #if 0).
* makefile.cygwin: Don't need to link with kernel32 and msvcrt
explicitly, they are included anyway.
i.e. gcc -mno-cygwin on cygwin (a.k.a. mingw32, using egcs-1.1.2).
* README.win32: Updated.
* build-dll makefile.cygwin tests/makefile.cygwin: New files.
* glib.h glib.def glibconfig.h.win32 makefile.msc: Slight updates.
* gmain.c: No need to include <fcntl.h> and <io.h> on Win32.
* gmain.c gutils.c testglib.c tests/string-test.c: Test for
NATIVE_WIN32, not _MSC_VER.
* gmutex.c: Must declare g_thread_functions_for_glib_use as
exported (using the GUTILS_C_VAR macro).
* gutils.c gmodule/libgplugin_[ab].c: LibMain not needed.
* gmodule/gmoduleconf.h.win32: Need underscore with gcc.
* gthread/gthread.c: With gcc on Win32, must use memcpy to assign
value of g_thread_functions_for_glib_use (?).
* makefile.msc tests/makefile.msc: Cosmetics.
1999-04-22 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* gutils.c (g_get_any_init): use sysconf (_SC_GETPW_R_SIZE_MAX) as
the new initinal bufsize for getpwuid_r on systems, that support
this. Hint from Holger Duerer <H.Duerer@zait.uni-bremen.de>.
Sat Apr 17 20:55:13 BST 1999 Tony Gale <gale@gtk.org>
* glib.h, gstring.c: Add new g_string functions for reading
from file/socket descriptors, and tokenising strings.
Added various g_string macros.
* README.win32: Mention the tests directory.
* glib.def: Add the functions from grand.c.
* glibconfig.h.win32: Add unsigned max values, and the format
strings.
* makefile.msc: Add grand.
* tests/{date-test,node-test}.c: Include <stdlib.h> for exit().
* tests/makefile.msc: New file.
1999-04-12 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* glib.h: Moved struct declaration up. Style fixes.
* grand.c: Style fixes. Only try to open /dev/random once.
* tests/rand-test.c (main): New tests; Slight bug fix.
1999-04-09 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* grand.c, tests/rand-test.c: New files to implement the Mersenne
Twister Pseudo Random Number Generator.
* glib.h, AUTHORS, Makefile.am, tests/Makefile.am: Changed
accordingly.
1999-03-31 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* gthread/gthread-posix.c: Use the right default arguments for the
construction of mutexes and conds for dce threads, these are
&pthread_(cond|mutex)attr_default instead of NULL. Hint from
D. Emilio Grimaldo Tunon <emilio_tunon@nl.compuware.com>.
1999-03-30 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* configure.in: Added a check for the right format to printf and
scanf long longs. It is %qi instead of %lli on FreeBSD for
whatever reason.
* Makefile.am (glibconfig.h): Make sure `glibconfig.h' exists
after the rule is fired.
(install-exec-local): Install glibconfig.h only if the contents
are different from the currently installed glibconfig.h.
* config.h.win32: Update version numbers.
* glibconfig.h.win32: Update version numbers and pthreads-win32-
related magic values.
* README.win32: Some improvements.
* makefile.msc: Add gqueue and gstack. Correct version number.
1999-03-18 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* configure.in: added new AC_SUBST(GTHREAD_COMPILE_IMPL_DEFINES)
to hold various defines to get the right thread implementation on
different platforms. Also look in -ldce for pthread_create. Should
make it work on HP-UX 10.x.
* gthread/Makefile.am (INCLUDES): Added @GTHREAD_COMPILE_IMPL_DEFINES@.
1999-03-17 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* configure.in: Added missing values for G_MAXU(SHORT|INT|LONG) on
platforms with only /usr/include/values.h.
* acconfig.h: Removed unnecessary macros.
* glibconfig.h.win32, config.h.win32: Moved G_THREADS_IMPL_POSIX
from config.h.win32 to glibconfig.h.win32. Taken from glib 1.2
branch.
* configure.in: Also accept _Pctime_r instead of ctime_r, while
seraching for the right `_REENTRANT' flag. This is for Digital
UNIX 4.0d. Taken from glib 1.2 branch.
