* glib/gslice.c (slice_config_init): initialize GSlice config from
G_SLICE environemtn variable. we support G_SLICE=always-malloc
currently, which forces all g_slice_*() allocations to use the system
malloc instead.
* glib/gutils.c:
g_parse_debug_string(): added a note about not using g_malloc() here.
_g_getenv_nomalloc(): getenv() variant that doesn't use g_malloc or
g_slice. contains only guesswork in the WIN32 branch.
2006-01-17 Sebastian Wilhelmi <seppi@seppi.de>
* glib/gthreadpool.c: To avoid deadlocks get rid of the settings
G_LOCK. Use the unused_thread_queue lock instead. Change
g_thread_pool_thread_proxy such that threads only wait on
non-exlusive pools for at most a 1/2 second. Do not reorder tasks
due to superfluous tasks. Global tasks wait at most for
max-idle-time milliseconds. Make sure, that no task is woken up
twice for the same event via a wakeup_serial. This fixes#324228.
* tests/threadpool-test.c: Adapt test accordingly. Do not pass
invalid NULL into the thread pools. This as well fixes#327290.
2006-01-16 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/gthread.h (g_static_mutex_get_mutex_impl_shortcut):
Rework the strict aliasing fix to not break C++, pointed
out by Murray Cumming.

Signal waiting threads, problem noticed by Christian Kellner.
2006-01-16 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
Fix bug 326747, Alberto Ruiz:
* glib/gconvert.c (make_valid_utf8): Change this function to
replace unknown characters by the Unicode replacement character
instead of '?', and don't append "(invalid encoding)".
(g_filename_display_name, g_filename_display_basename): Document
how to determine if the filename was in an invalid encoding.
2006-01-14 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/gtree.c: Replace the simple recursive implementation
by a nonrecursive, threaded implementation by Maurizio
Monge. (#169285)
2005-12-20 Sven Herzberg <herzi@gnome-de.org>

2006-01-04 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
* glib/glib.symbols
* glib/gstdio.h: don't macroized g_access, g_chdir, and g_unlink
either, since they have the same issue as g_rmdir. (Related to
bug #325249)
Wed Jan 4 13:33:25 2006 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* glib/gslice.c (magazine_cache_pop_magazine): don't reverse chunk
order when creating magazines, so we hand out chunks with ascending
adresses.
* docs/reference/glib/glib-sections.txt:
* glib/glib.symbols:
* glib/gthreadpool.[ch]:
- Added new API g_thread_pool_get_idle_time() and
g_thread_pool_set_idle_time(). (#324228).
* tests/threadpool-test.c:
- Updated test case to do thread pool sorting, thread pool with
no sorting and a thread pool with idle thread timeouts.
2005-12-20 Michael Meeks <michael.meeks@novell.com>
* glib/gmain.c (g_main_context_is_owner): new method
to determine if the current thread is the owner of the
context.
2006-01-02 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/glib.symbols:
* glib/gstdio.h:
* glib/gstdio.c (g_rmdir): Don't provide g_rmdir() as a macro
expanding to rmdir, since rmdir is not declared in a portable
system header we can include in gstdio.h. (#325249, Jani Monoses)
2006-01-01 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
* glib/gspawn-win32.c (g_spawn_sync_utf8): Set the GIOChannels for
stdout and stderr to unbuffered. Otherwise the giochannel layer
will try to read from them regardless whether the
g_io_channel_win32_poll() call here has indicated
readability or not. (#325310)
2005-12-27 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
Fix#316221, Michal Benes, Stanislav Brabec;

to sort tasks pushed into a threadpool. (#324479, Martyn Russell)
* tests/threadpool-test.c: Test this.
Tue Dec 20 18:14:14 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
* glib/gslice.[hc]: added mem_error() and mem_assert() to test and
handle errors without depending on gmessage.c which might not be
setup when the error occours.
removed G_SLICE_CONFIG_ALWAYS_FREE config option, fixed the code so
always freeing can be achieved by adjusting the working set time to
0 with G_SLICE_CONFIG_WORKING_SET_MSECS.
added G_SLICE_CONFIG_COLOR_INCREMENT to test different color increments
(mainly 0 and 1). reduced the minimum block size to 128 bytes, to
minimize wastage if small amounts of differently sized structrues are
allocated, this does come at a performance cost of roughly 5% though.
fixed up block alignment calculation, so it works for varying
block sizes. only use strerror() not g_strerror() since the latter
depends on working GQuark and GSlice.
mem_error(): implemented in terms of fprintf and vfprintf.
* tests/slice-color.c: new program to test cache colorization effects.
* tests/slice-test.c: trade G_SLICE_CONFIG_ALWAYS_FREE for 0 duration
G_SLICE_CONFIG_WORKING_SET_MSECS.
2005-12-17 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/goption.c (parse_short_option): Set an error in all
failure cases. (#324332, Tim-Philipp Müller)
2005-12-17 Sebastian Wilhelmi <seppi@seppi.de>
* glib/gatomic.c: Fix memory barrier position in g_atomic_int_get
and g_atomic_pointer_get. Add g_atomic_int_set and
g_atomic_pointer_set implementations for the !DEFINE_WITH_MUTEXES &&
G_ATOMIC_OP_MEMORY_BARRIER_NEEDED case, as well as defining them
as functions (additionally to the macros in the header) for the
!G_ATOMIC_OP_MEMORY_BARRIER_NEEDED case.
2005-12-16 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/gmem.c (g_allocator_new): Don't return a pointer to
a const struct, since apps expect to be able to modify it.
(#324179, J. Ali Harlow)
Tue Dec 13 10:13:32 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
* glib/gatomic.h: added g_atomic_pointer_set() and g_atomic_int_set()
for systems where the initialization of atomic variables requires a
write memory barrier.
2005-12-09 Alexander Larsson <alexl@redhat.com>
* glib/glist.h:
* glib/gslist.h:
Use G_GNUC_WARN_UNUSED_RESULT on list functions that return
the whole list.
* glib/gasyncqueue.c:
- Call g_queue_insert_sorted() instead of duplicating the code.
- Call g_queue_sort() instead of duplicating the code.
- Invert sort function results to make sure the same sort function
gives the same results across glist, gslist, gqueue and
gasyncqueue.
* tests/asyncqueue-test.c:
- Updated the sort function to reflect the example in the
documentation for gasyncqueue.c.
2005-12-07 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
* glib-gettextize.in: Look up prefix at run-time on Win32,
assuming the standard directory structure with glib-gettextize in
$prefix/bin.
2005-12-06 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/gmem.h: Exempt GTK+ from the mem chunk deprecation, since
we need GTK+ 2.8 to compile against GLib 2.10.
2005-12-05 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT):
* tests/gobject/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Set

- Added support for sorting async queues by with _push_sorted(),
_push_sorted_unlocked(), _sort() and _sort_unlocked() (#323047).
* tests/Makefile.am:
* tests/asyncqueue-test.c:
- Added test case for gasyncqueue.c
Mon Dec 5 15:53:20 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
* glib/gslice.c: implement chain walking for arbitrary ->next pointer
offsets in g_slice_free_chain_with_offset() based on a patch by behdad
in bug 323178. moved time consuming logic from g_slice_free() out of
the inner loop, so g_slice_free_chain_with_offset() provides a real
performance benefit over g_slice_free1() now.
* glib/gslice.h: renamed g_slice_free_chain() to
g_slice_free_chain_with_offset(). implemented g_slice_free_chain() as
a type-safe macro as suggested in bug 323178.
simplified the macro implementation of g_slice_free() and implemented
it in a type safe manner for all compliers as suggested by Morten
Welinder <mortenw@gnome.org>.

* tests/libmoduletestplugin_a.c: Fix compiler warnings.
* glib/gatomic.c: In the ia64 implementation, use
__sync builtin without _si or _di suffix. (#321229,
Stanislav Brabec, patch by Andreas Schwab)
2005-12-04 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
Handle multiple user names with the same UID better.
(#319535, Laszlo Peter)
* glib/gutils.c (g_get_any_init_do): When determining user
data, first look up $LOGNAME. If the UID doesn't match
getuid(), fall back to the current behaviour of looking
up the user data based on getuid().
2005-12-04 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/gmacros.h (G_GNUC_WARN_UNUSED_RESULT): Add a macro
to make gcc warn if a function result is ignored. (#145466,

Fri Dec 2 13:08:58 2005 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* glib/gslice.h (g_slice_free): reworked GCC-specific type-safe macro
variant into something less verbose, but digestible for gcc-3.4.
Fri Dec 2 10:55:07 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
* tests/slice-test.c: extended to perform the benchmarking on the old
memchunk code if 'O' is selected.
* tests/memchunks.c: new file which contains the old GLib mem chunks
implementation with prefix old_mem_chunk_.
* tests/Makefile.am: added memchunks.c
Fri Dec 2 00:16:59 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
* glib/gslice.c: improved gettimeofday() timer resolution by maintaining
acceptable load distribution of the syscall.
(allocator_get_magazine_threshold): reduce minimum/single-thread magazine
sizes to approximately page_size/2.5 to avoid excessive startup allocations.
Fri Dec 2 00:16:59 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
* glib/gslice.c: improved gettimeofday() timer resolution by maintaining
acceptable load distribution of the syscall.
(slab_allocator_free_chunk): reduce minimum/single-thread magazine sizes
to approximately page_size/2.5 to avoid excessive startup allocations.
Thu Dec 1 17:32:46 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
* glib/gslice.[hc]: new slice allocator implementation.
* tests/slice-test.c: added random slice allocation test.
* 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: check for availability of posix_memalign(3), memalign(3)
and valloc(3).
* glib/Makefile.am: added gslice.[hc].
2005-12-01 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
* glib/gstdio.c (g_stat): In the Win32 implementation, strip
trailing slash(es) for non-root folders. stat() fails if non-root
folders are specified with trailing slashes. It's too much hassle
to demand that callers strip such slashes themselves, especially
as it is easy to get it wrong and strip the slash of a root
folder.
(g_rename): On NT-based Windows, use MoveFileEx() with
MOVEFILE_REPLACE_EXISTING to better match Unix behaviour.
2005-11-28 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
Fix G_STMT_START / G_STMT_END on Solaris. (#321972,
Andrew Paprocki)
* configure.in: Check whether do { } while (0) works.

G_STMT_END if it works.
Wed Nov 23 17:34:01 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
* glib/gdataset.c: access datalist flags via atomic pointer access
funcitons, instead of acquiring the dataset lock. this is faster and
also matches the atomic pointer readouts in gdatalistprivate.h and
direct pointer modifications required by gobject.c.
2005-11-22 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
Avoid double locking in g_intern_string (#322133,
Benedikt Meurer)
* glib/gdataset.c (g_quark_from_string_internal): New
internal function which factors out common parts of
g_quark_from[_static]_string.
(g_quark_from_string, g_quark_from_static_string):
Use g_quark_from_string_internal.
(g_intern_string, g_intern_static_string): Use
g_quark_from_string_internal, and only take the
lock once.
(g_quark_new): Don't store the strings shifted by -1
in the g_quarks array.
(g_quark_to_string): Adapt to the previous change.

and g_utf8_offset_to_pointer.
* glib/gutf8.c (g_utf8_pointer_to_offset)
(g_utf8_offset_to_pointer): Handle negative offsets, and use

2005-11-16 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
* docs/reference/glib/tmpl/unicode.sgml: Correct typo on mentioning
@G_UNICODE_BREAK_UNKNOWN that should be #G_UNICODE_BREAK_UNKNOWN.
2005-11-09 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
* glib/guniprop.c: Use bit hacks instead when checking a general
category value against multiple values.
* glib/gutf8.c: Change ISO10646 to Unicode in docs.
2005-11-07 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/gmem.c (g_allocator_new): We need to set n_preallocs to a
nonzero value, otherwise GTK+ 2.8 breaks when compiled against
GLib 2.9. (#320755, Luca Ferretti)
2005-11-04 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/Makefile.am: Apply a patch from Behdad Esfahbod to
use a faster lookup table for g_unichar_get_mirror_char().
* glib/gmirroringtable.h: The new table.
* glib/gunichartables.h: Remove bidi_mirroring_table.
* glib/gen-unicode-tables.pl: Don't generate the mirroring
table.

2005-11-04 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/gdebug.h: add new GDebugFlag for fatal_criticals
* glib/gmessages.c: (_g_debug_init): handle G_DEBUG=fatal_criticals,
to help find critical warnings in applications. (#320017,
Vincent Untz)
2005-11-02 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
* glib/glib.symbols: Remove large amount of trailing whitespace
from one line. Remove #ifdef G_UNDEFINED from around
g_hash_table_new and g_hash_table_new_full symbols, what was the
purpose of that? Add the g_slice functions.
Tue Nov 1 16:24:20 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
* glib/gmem.[hc]: prepared deprecation of GMemChunk and GAllocator.
added g_slice_*() API to allocate and cache small bits of memory.
an actuall allocator implementation for g_slice_*() is still pending.
* glib/gthread.[hc]: changes from a patch by Matthias Clasen.
changed GRealThread list to use in-structure *next; fields instead
of GSList, in order for thread iteration to not depenend on g_slice_*()
indirectly.
_g_thread_mem_private_get():
_g_thread_mem_private_set(): added accessors for private memory,
needed because the ordinary GPrivate implementation relies on GArray
and GSList and therefore indirectly on working g_slice_*() allocations.
* glib/gthread.[hc]:
g_thread_foreach(): new public API function to loop over all existing threads.
* glib/gdataset.c:
* glib/gstring.c:
* glib/gcache.c:
* glib/garray.c:

* glib/ghash.c:
* glib/gtree.c:
* glib/ghook.c:
* glib/gmain.c:
* glib/gnode.c:
removed GAllocator and free list usages and accompanying locks.
use g_slice_*() API to allocate and cache small bits of memory.
* glib/ghook.h: removed GMemChunk field from public API.
* glib/gslist.h:
* glib/glist.h: deprecate allocator API, provide _free1() for consistency.
* glib/gnode.h: deprecate allocator API.
* glib/gmain.c: reordered GPollRec fields so g_slice_free_chain() can
be used for poll rec lists.
* glib/grel.c: removed mem chunk usage, and allocated tuples via g_slice_*().
g_relation_destroy(): free all tuples from the all_tuples hash table,
this effectively maintains the life time track keeping of tuples.
g_relation_delete_tuple(): free tuples which are removed from the
all_tuples hash table. this fixes a temporary leak that was present
in the memchunk code until the destruction of the relation.
2005-10-29 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* tests/convert-test.c: Add some tests for conversions between
UTF-8, UCS-4 and UTF-16.

2005-10-19 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
* configure.in: Use AC_CHECK_FUNCS for _NSGetEnviron, to get the
config.h symbol automatically. Fixes bug #313731.
2005-10-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
* glib/gwin32.c (g_win32_get_package_installation_directory):
Return a g_strdup()ed copy of the value stored in the hash table,
so that it can be g_free()d without leaving a dangling pointer in
the hash table. (#319232)
2005-10-05 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* Makefile.am: Add Collation tests.
* tests/collate/*: Inputs and expected outputs for collation tests.
* tests/run-collate-tests.sh: Script to run collation tests.
* tests/unicode-collate.c (main): Rework slightly to make
it usable in unit tests. Also test g_utf8_collate_key_for_filename().
2005-10-01 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
* docs/reference/glib/tmpl/unicode.sgml:
* glib/gen-unicode-tables.pl:
* glib/gunibreak.h:
* glib/gunichartables.h:
* glib/gunicode.h:
* tests/casefold.txt:
* tests/casemap.txt: Updated to Unicode 4.1. There are five new
GUnicodeBreakType types. That may break some applications, like
Pango <= 1.10.
2005-09-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/gprintf.h: Remove g_snprintf() and g_vsnprintf(), since
they are already declared in glib.h. This doesn't break documented
use of gprintf.h, but should probably be pointed out in the
release notes for 2.10. (#314232, Behdad Esfahbod)
Tue Sep 20 13:16:04 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
* glib/gpattern.c (g_pattern_ph_match): applied significant recursion
complexity optimization, based on a patch from Matthias Clasen.
* tests/patterntest.c: more tests, mostly from matthias.
Mon Sep 19 17:23:23 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
* glib/gpattern.c: applied a patch from matthias which checks on the
upper bound of GPatternSpec length to optimize matches.
cosmetic fixups.
* tests/patterntest.c: added more match cases.
2005-09-16 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
* glib/gstrfuncs.c (g_ascii_strcasecmp, g_ascii_strncasecmp): Add
warning to doc comment that these functions should not be used on
encodings like CP932.
2005-09-14 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* tests/keyfile-test.c: Add a test for grup names of length 1.
* glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_line_is_group): Accept group names
of length 1. (#316309)
2005-09-11 Sebastian Wilhelmi <seppi@seppi.de>
* tests/refcount/Makefile.am (INCLUDES): Link the the refcount
tests to the system thread library $(G_THREAD_LIBS). Fixes#313744
and #314217.
2005-09-07 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
* glib/Makefile.am: Create also a console version of the
gspawn-win32-helper program, gspawn-win32-helper-console.exe.
It's otherwise identical to gspawn-win32-helper.exe, except marked
as a console application (linked without the -mwindows option).
* glib/gspawn-win32.c (do_spawn_directly, do_spawn_with_pipes):
Drop the dont_wait parameter. Its truth value correlated 100% with
the NULLness of the exit_status parameter anyway, so it's enough
to check whether exit_status is NULL. Invert the sense of the
dont_return_handle parameter and rename it to do_return_handle, to
make the code easier to read by avoiding double negations.
(g_spawn_sync_utf8, g_spawn_async_with_pipes_utf8): Modify calls
to do_spawn_with_pipes() accordingly.
(do_spawn_with_pipes): If we have a console, use the console
version of the helper program, otherwise use the GUI one. This
avoids extra console windows opening up in some situations. (In
case a console application uses the GUI gspawn-win32-helper.exe to
spawn another console application we would get a separate console
for the spawned console application).
* glib-zip.in: Distribute also gspawn-win32-helper-console.exe.
2005-09-05 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>

if the file is too large. (#315275, Kjartan Maraas)
2005-09-05 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_load_from_fd): The return value
of read() is signed. (#315273, Kjartan Maraas)
2005-08-31 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
* glib/gutils.h: Wrapping atexit() is a bad idea on Windows, where
the EXE and each DLL have their own atexit function chains.
#define g_atexit as atexit instead. This means it has a
better chance of doing what the caller wants. For instance,
gtkhtml calls g_atexit() registering a function in gtkhtml
itself. This caused a crash when g_atexit() was implemented as a
function in the GLib DLL. The gtkhtml DLL was already unloaded by
the time the GLib DLL got unloaded.
* glib/gutils.c: #undef the #define mentioned above, to also get a
real g_atexit() into the DLL for backward compatibility. Document
the Windows behaviour of g_atexit(), and document the varying ways
atexit() can behave in the context of dynamically loaded modules
on Unix.

Make also the g_spawn*() functions take parameters in the GLib
file name encoding, i.e. UTF-8, on Windows. Has no impact on Unix
API or ABI. Like the other GLib API that was earlier changed to
use UTF-8 on Windows, the names of the functions that take UTF-8
have _utf8 suffixes added by using preprocessor macros in the
header file. The old names are kept for functions with the old
behaviour, taking parameters in the system codepage, for DLL ABI
stability.
* glib/gspawn.h: On Win32 add the suffix _utf8 to the names of the
g_spawn*() functions.
* glib/gspawn-win32.c: Use wide-char API on NT-based
Windows. Convert parameters from UTF-8 to wide chars (NT) or
system codepage (Win9x) and call the C library _wspawn*() or
spawn*() functions respectvely. Add DLL ABI stability versions
that take parameters in the system codepage.
* glib/gspawn-win32-helper.c: On NT-based Windows use the
wide-char versions of argv and envp, and use wide-char API to
change directory and spawn the program to run. Remove the verbose
debugging output, it was too complex to modify for the wide-char
features. (Just add temporary debugging printouts if needed, no
need to have them permanently in the source.)
* glib/gspawn.c: Corresponding documentation updates.
* glib/glib.symbols: Corresponding changes: Mark the ABI stability
symbols as PRIVATE, add the new _utf8-suffixed ones.

* configure.in: Check for crt_externs.h and _NSGetEnviron.
* glib/gutils.c: On Darwin, include crt-externs.h and
define environ using _NSGetEnviron(). (#313731)
2005-08-16 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
* glib/gutils.c (g_get_any_init): Move the body of the big if...
(g_get_any_init_do): ... to this new function.
(g_get_any_init): Declare as inline.
(g_get_any_init_locked): New inline function, does the locking.
Make use of these two throughout the code.
2005-08-15 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/gbacktrace.c (g_on_error_stack_trace): Wait for
the child process and then simply return. This makes
The "S" option work as documented in g_on_error_query().
(#313125, Matthew F. Barnes)
* gobject/genums.c: (g_flags_get_first_value): Special-case flag
value of 0. Instead of returning the first random GFlagsValue
we come across, return the GFlagsValue for 0 if it exists or
NULL if it does not exist. Never return the GFlagsValue for 0
if the requested flags value is nonzero.
2005-08-10 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/gfileutils.c (g_build_path_va, g_build_pathname_va):
Take a va_list*, not a va_list, to avoid compiler warnings
about uninitialized variables.
2005-08-09 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* tests/gobject/Makefile.am (test_programs): Add it here.
* tests/gobject/gvalue-test.c: Beginning of a test suite
for GValue.
2005-08-08 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* tests/convert-test.c: Enable the endianness test.
* glib/gconvert.c: Make the caching of iconv descriptors
optional.
* 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.
2005-08-08 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* tests/Makefile.am: Add convert-test here.
* tests/convert-test.c: Add the beginning of a testsuite
for g_convert() and friends.
2005-08-04 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/glib.symbols:
* glib/gatomic.[hc]: Always export g_atomic_int_get and
g_atomic_pointer_get as functions, even if we have macros,
to avoid changing the ABI depending on configuration.
* glib/gatomic.c: Fix the s390 implementations of
g_atomic_pointer_compare_and_exchange.
2005-08-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
* glib/gstdio.h: Move the G_BEGIN_DECLS/G_END_DECLS pair outside
the #if/#else/#endif block. Otherwise we had G_BEGIN_DECLS without
matching G_END_DECLS on Unix, and G_END_DECLS without matching
G_BEGIN_DECLS on Win32.
2005-08-02 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/gconvert.c (g_convert_with_iconv): Don't go in an
infinite loop if the input text ends in an incomplete multibyte
character. (#312402, Sebastian Bacher)
2005-08-02 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
* tests/refcount/objects.c
* tests/refcount/properties.c
* tests/refcount/signals.c: Use g_usleep() instead of sleep() for
portability.
Mon Aug 1 23:33:47 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
* tests/refcount/closures.c: test high contention on closure
reference counts to trigger and catch non-atomic updates.
* tests/refcount/objects.c:
* tests/refcount/objects2.c:
* tests/refcount/properties.c:
* tests/refcount/properties2.c:
* tests/refcount/signals.c:
fixed up test and threading fundamentals. variables accessed from all
threads need to be volatile. context switches are enforced by using
g_thread_yield(), not g_usleep(1) which may result in busy waits on
some platforms. for testcode, always consider all warnings and
critical messages fatal. issue the currently running program on
stdout. improved progress indicators.
* tests/refcount/properties.c:
* tests/refcount/objects.c:
don't overdo the number of testing threads to keep the testing machine
usable, 2 threads can produce as much contention as 20 if executing the
same code.
* tests/refcount/signals.c: only start 1 thread per object. GObject
doesn't provide mutually exclusive object access, but only mutually
exclusive reference count modification.
* tests/Makefile.am: added closures test.
2005-08-01 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
* tests/uri-test.c: Make it pass on Win32.
(from_uri_tests[]): Take into consideration that on Win32 we don't
return "localhost" hostnames.
(safe_strcmp_filename): New function that considers slash and
backslash equal on Win32.
(run_roundtrip_tests): Use safe_strcmp_filename().
Sun Jul 31 01:50:20 2005 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* glib/gdataset.c:
moved G_DATALIST_*_POINTER() macros here, because proper use requires
the global g_dataset_global mutex to be acquired.
g_datalist_id_get_data():
g_datalist_unset_flags():
g_datalist_set_flags(): properly acquire and release dataset mutex.
* glib/gdatasetprivate.h: implement G_DATALIST_GET_FLAGS() via atomic
pointer access to account for memory barriers. moved all other macros.
