of the reference manual.
* docs/reference/glib/cross.sgml: MinGW uses MSVCRT.DLL which
requires %I64i instead of %lli. (#161306)

Patch from J. Ali Harlow
* configure.in: Use void * not HANDLE for GPid on win32.
* glib/gspawn.[ch] glib/gspawn-win32.[ch] glib/glib.def:
Add g_spawn_close_pid().
* glib/gspawn.[ch]: Make g_spawn functions take
GPid * instead if int * (GPid == int on unix, will
produce compile warnings until fixed on Win32.)
* tests/child-test.c: Make the test a little more
inappropriately verbose.
* glib/gmain.c: Add some documentation warnings about
not closing @pid while the source is active.
2004-02-29 Sebastian Wilhelmi <seppi@seppi.de>
* configure.in, glib/gatomic.c, glib/gatomic.h: Moved the
assembler functions from gatomic.h to gatomic.c, which makes for
better maintainability. Also use gint instead of gint32 to be able
to use reference counting for ABI-fixed structures with
gint/guint.
* glib/gthread.h: Adapted accordingly.
* tests/atomic-test.c: Updated to test for G_MAXINT and G_MININT.
* glib/glib-overrides.txt, glib/glib-sections.txt,
glib/tmpl/atomic_operations.sgml: Updated according to code changes.
2004-02-26 Sebastian Wilhelmi <seppi@seppi.de>
* configure.in, config.h.win32.in, glib/gthread.c: Removed the PID
niceness surrogate for thread priorities as requested by Tim. It
does more harm than good.
* glib/tmpl/threads.sgml: Updated to reflect removal of the PID
niceness surrogate for thread priorities.
2004-02-26 Sebastian Wilhelmi <seppi@seppi.de>
* glib/gatomic.c, glib/gatomic.h: New files to implement atomic
operations for different platforms. Fixes bug #63621.

operations.
* glib/glib-overrides.txt, glib/glib-sections.txt,

Sun Feb 22 00:47:04 2004 Matthias Clasen <maclas@gmx.de>

Fri Feb 20 02:39:03 2004 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>

a G_MODULE_BIND_LOCAL flag to g_module_open() to disable global
symbol registration.
Thu Feb 19 18:40:01 2004 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* glib/gstring.[hc]: for G_CAN_INLINE environments, inline
g_string_append_c() for efficiency. (vaguely based on #118707).
Sat Feb 14 01:21:34 2004 Matthias Clasen <maclas@gmx.de>
* glib/gmain.h:
* glib/gmain.c (g_child_watch_source_new):
* glib/gmain.c (g_child_watch_add):
* glib/gmain.c (g_child_watch_add_full): Wrap waitpid() as a
GSource. This is a partial implementation of the "Unix signal
source". (#50296, Jonathan R. Blandford)
* configure.in: Add the necessary configury to typedef GPid
appropriately.
* tests/Makefile.am:
* tests/child-test.c: Test child_watch sources.
Thu Feb 5 00:56:28 2004 Matthias Clasen <maclas@gmx.de>
* glib/gcompletion.c (g_completion_complete_utf8): New function which
works like g_completion_complete(), but strips a trailing incomplete
UTF-8 character from the prefix. (#133313, Theppitak Karoonboonyanan)
* tests/completion-test.c (main): Some GCompletion tests.
* tests/Makefile.am: Add completion-test.
Tue Feb 3 21:24:01 2004 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
* gtype.h (_G_TYPE_CVH): provide a short-cut version for
this macro in case value->g_type==checked_type for gcc, similar
to instance and class check short-cuts. this speeds up code that
makes frequent use of G_VALUE_HOLDS_*() (e.g. setters/getters).
* gtype.c (type_data_last_unref_Wm): don't call class-cache functions
for the uncached case, this rendered g_type_class_unref_uncached()
useless. pointed out by Stefan Westerfeld.
Sat Jan 10 00:11:12 2004 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
* glib/gutils.h (g_bit_nth_lsf,g_bit_nth_msf): 64-bit cleanliness
fixes.
* docs/reference/glib/tmpl/misc_utils.sgml: update to reflect the
above take gulongs now. My docs suck, someone should revisit it.
2003-12-30 Murray Cumming <murrayc@usa.net>
* gobject/glib-mkenums.in: Added a lowercase_name option, to be used
next to the enum declaration, where the flag option is already used,
when it is not possible to guess where to put the underscores in the
_get_type() function name, for instance for GNOMEVFSURIHide.
