(g_signal_init): Remove the restriction that HandlerMatch must be the same size as GList, and obsolete comments referring to mem chunks. 2005-12-24 Matthias Clasen * gobject.symbols: Add new functions. Thu Dec 22 18:53:14 2005 Tim Janik * gobject.[hc]: renamed GUnowned to GInitiallyUnowned.

(#323273, Kalle Vahlman) Thu Dec 1 12:53:26 2005 Tim Janik * gtype.c: use g_slic_* for all object allocations. 2005-11-28 Matthias Clasen * gobjectnotifyqueue.c (g_object_notify_queue_thaw): * gobject-query.c (main): Silence compiler warnings. * glib-genmarshal.c (main): Use G_N_ELEMENTS. 2005-11-27 Matthias Clasen * gboxed.h: Declare g_hash_table_get_type. Wed Nov 23 18:01:46 2005 Tim Janik * gobject.[hc]: added floating reference count. g_object_is_floating(): g_object_ref_sink(): new functions to deal with floating references. g_object_force_floating(): new funciton for object implementations to set the floating flag. * gobject.c (g_object_init): make objects initially floating. Wed Nov 23 17:58:13 2005 Tim Janik * gparam.[hc]: added g_param_spec_ref_sink(). Wed Nov 23 13:36:02 2005 Tim Janik * gboxed.[hc]: minor cleanups, implemented G_TYPE_HASH_TABLE. 2005-11-17 Matthias Clasen * === Released 2.9.0 === 2005-11-17 Matthias Clasen * glib-genmarshal.c: const correctness fixes, found by Arjan van de Ven and gcc. Tue Nov 1 17:07:43 2005 Tim Janik * gsignal.c: allocate signal handlers and handler match structures via the new g_slice_*() API (get's rid of GList allocation hack). * gtype.c: got rid of per-type memchunks. if GTypeInfo.n_preallocs is > 0, objects are allocated via g_slice_*() instead of g_malloc(). 2005-10-03 Matthias Clasen * glib-mkenums.in: Really fix #314890. 2005-09-28 Michael Natterer * gtype.h (G_IMPLEMENT_INTERFACE): revert last change, it breaks all users of G_IMPLEMENT_INTERFACE() inside G_DEFINE_TYPE_WITH_CODE(), since apparently GCC doesn't like commas enclosed in {}, not (), in nested macro calls. 2005-09-26 DindinX * gobject/gtype.h: initialize all the fields of GInterfaceInfo in the G_IMPLEMENT_INTERFACE macro, to shut up a warning when compiling at -W 2005-09-26 Matthias Clasen * glib-mkenums.in: Don't hang on '{' following a trigraph comment in the same line. (#314890, Mathias Hasselmann) Thu Sep 22 12:42:12 2005 Tim Janik * gparam.c (g_param_spec_internal): fix pspec->name assignment which needs to be strdup()ed for non G_PARAM_STATIC_NAME pspecs. this fixes recently introduced crashes during plugin unloading. also, ensure that static pspec names are canonicalized. * gsignal.h: reverted last change from matthias, we don't guarantee that type ids aren't mangled with G_SIGNAL_TYPE_STATIC_SCOPE anywhere. 2005-09-20 Matthias Clasen * gsignal.h (struct _GSignalQuery): Remove the misleading comment about G_SIGNAL_TYPE_STATIC_SCOPE, since we don't allow that on return types. 2005-09-08 Kjartan Maraas * gclosure.c: (g_closure_set_meta_marshal): Remove some unused code. * gsignal.c: (g_signal_emitv): Same here * gtype.c: (g_type_register_fundamental): And here * testgobject.c: Mark some functions static. 2005-09-05 Matthias Clasen * gsignal.c (struct _SignalNode): Make the name field const. (g_signal_newv): Don't keep an unnecessary extra copy of the signal name around, and don't forget to free the name if an existing node is reused. 2005-08-31 Matthias Clasen * gobject.c (g_object_do_class_init): Intern the signal name. * gparam.c (g_param_spec_internal): Intern the name here, since we need the quark anyway when sending change notification. * gboxed.c: * gparamspecs.c: * gtype.c (g_type_init_with_debug_flags): Intern type name before registering the types. * gtype.h (G_DEFINE_TYPE_EXTENDED): Intern type name before registering the type. * gvaluetypes.c (g_value_types_init): * gtypeplugin.c (g_type_plugin_get_type): * gtypemodule.c (g_type_module_get_type): * gparam.c (g_param_type_init): * gobject.c (g_object_type_init): * genums.c (g_enum_types_init): * gboxed.c (g_boxed_type_init): Intern type names before registering the type to avoid unnecessary copies. 2005-08-23 Matthias Clasen * === Released 2.8.1 === 2005-08-12 Matthias Clasen * === Released 2.8.0 === 2005-08-09 Matthias Clasen * gvaluetransform.c: Access enum and flags values as v_long/v_ulong, not v_int/v_uint, to make value transformation of such types work on bigendian 64bit machines. (#312485, Michael Lorenz) 2005-08-05 Matthias Clasen * abicheck.sh: Also check exported variables * === Released 2.7.7 === 2005-08-03 Matthias Clasen * === Released 2.7.6 === 2005-08-02 Matthias Clasen * gclosure.c (union ClosureInt): Mark the vint member as volatile, which seems to be necessary to make atomic operations work on s390. * === Released 2.7.5 === Mon Aug 1 23:00:42 2005 Tim Janik * gclosure.c: turned all modifications to the first 32 integer bits in a closure into atomic accesses. wrapped write accesses into special macros to keep the atomic modification logic in a single place. comment cleanups. * gclosure.h: made all atomicly accessed closure fields volatile. * gobject.h: made ref_count field volatile. Sun Jul 31 02:04:23 2005 Tim Janik * gobject.c: use g_datalist_set_flags() and g_datalist_unset_flags() to allow proper locking around &qdata modifications. Sat Jul 30 21:10:26 2005 Tim Janik * gobject.c: reverted notify_mutex introduction, since this prevents parallelized setting of object properties on different objects, and serves no apparent purpose (to me at least). g_object_real_dispose(): removed non-atomic reference count modifications. g_object_unref(): make sure the closures array is destroyed when destroying signal handlers. * gparam.c: cosmetic changes. * gsignal.c: comment fixup. allow 16bit blocking count. * gsignal.c: reverted GClosure related changes. * gclosure.c: reverted premature commit of atomic reference counting attempt. 2005-07-21 Matthias Clasen * === Released 2.7.4 === 2005-07-15 Matthias Clasen * === Released 2.7.3 === 2005-07-15 Matthias Clasen Make refcounting threadsafe by using atomic operations. (#166020, Wim Taymans) * 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. 2005-07-11 Matthias Clasen * gobject.h: * gobject.symbols: Remove G_GNUC_NULL_TERMINATED from g_object_new again, since that makes gcc warn on calls of the form g_object_new (some_type, NULL) 2005-07-09 Tor Lillqvist * Makefile.am: Don't use the scripts in build/win32 to compile gobject.rc into a resource object file. (This means we lose 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. * gobject.rc.in: Thus replace BUILDNUMBER with 0. 2005-07-08 Matthias Clasen * === Released 2.7.2 === 2005-06-30 Matthias Clasen * === Released 2.7.1 === 2005-06-26 Tor Lillqvist * Makefile.am: libtool installs/uninstalls the import library, no need to do it ourselves. Do still install/uninstall the .def file, though. 2005-06-24 Tor Lillqvist * Makefile.am (install-libtool-import-lib): Current GNU tools do understand the PRIVATE keyword. 2005-06-19 Matthias Clasen * gparam.h (GParamFlags): Avoid a warning. (#308295, Murray Cumming). 2005-06-13 Matthias Clasen * gparam.h (GParamFlags): Re-add G_PARAM_PRIVATE as a deprecated name for bit 5, since some language bindings have it bound. 2005-06-10 Matthias Clasen * === Released 2.7.0 === 2005-05-20 Matthias Clasen * gvaluetypes.c (g_value_set_string): dup the new value before freeing the old, just in case. (#172142, Morten Welinder) 2005-05-13 Matthias Clasen * glib-genmarshal.1: Mention 64bit integer types. 2005-05-05 Owen Taylor * gobject.[ch] gobject.symbols: Add g_object_add/remove_toggle_ref() functions to get notification when a reference count is the last remaining reference; this enables better memory management for language bindings. (http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-devel-list/2005-April/msg00095.html) 2005-04-29 Matthias Clasen * gobject.symbols: * gboxed.h (G_TYPE_DATE): * gboxed.c: Add a boxed type for GDate. (#301787, Tim-Philipp Müller) 2005-03-25 Matthias Clasen * gparam.c (param_spec_ht_lookup): Don't do the second lookup if the name was already canonical. (#171502, Morten Welinder) Tue Mar 22 14:15:23 2005 Manish Singh * gparam.c (g_param_spec_internal): cast away any constness on assignment. 2005-03-21 Matthias Clasen * glib-mkenums.in: Avoid forcing extra newlines when using template files. (#171005) 2005-03-20 Matthias Clasen * gparam.c (g_param_spec_internal): Don't copy strings which are marked as static. Don't allow non-canonical static names. * gparam.h (GParamFlags): Add G_PARAM_STATIC_{NAME,NICK,BLURB} flags. (#160655, Ben Maurer) 2005-03-18 Hans Breuer * makefile.msc.in : handle gobjectaliasdef.c 2005-03-14 Matthias Clasen Make PLT-reduction work with gcc4, and don't include everything in gobjectalias.h: * gobject.symbols: Group symbols by header and source file. * makegobjectalias.pl: Protect definitions by the same preprocessor symbols used to guard the headers. Move the alias declarations to a separate file which is produced when calling makegalias.pl -def * Makefile.am (gobjectaliasdef.c): Add a rule to build this file. * *.c: Include gobjectalias.h after the other i GLib headers, include gobjectaliasdef.c at the bottom. 2005-03-08 Matthias Clasen * gobject.symbols: Add the new attributes here, too. * gobject.h: Use G_GNUC_NULL_TERMINATED where appropriate. (#164706, Marc Meissner) * gvaluearray.h: Small cleanup (use G_BEGIN/END_DECLS). (#168474, Fabricio Barros Cabral) 2005-02-24 Tor Lillqvist * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Don't distribute gobject.def. (#167496, J. Ali Harlow) Sun Feb 6 22:00:46 2005 Manish Singh * abicheck.sh: feed the contents of config.h and glibconfig.h into the preprocessor, since glib.symbols could need #defines from them. 2005-01-12 Matthias Clasen Cosmetic fixes (#163792, Benoît Carpentier): * gobject-query.c (main): Remove duplicate lines. * gvaluetransform.c: Remove duplicate definitions of value_transform_[u]int64_[u]int64. 2005-01-07 Matthias Clasen * === Released 2.6.1 === 2004-12-27 Matthias Clasen * Makefile.am: Only check the ABI on linux, since the shell script is not portable. (#161734, Adrian Bunk) 2004-12-16 Matthias Clasen * === Released 2.6.0 === 2004-12-02 Matthias Clasen * === Released 2.5.7 === 2004-11-30 Tor Lillqvist * Makefile.am (gobject.def): gcc -E complains "linker input file unused because linking not done" if told to preprocess the gobject.symbols file. Use '-' and redirection to pass it as standard input instead. Sun Nov 28 13:21:12 2004 Manish Singh * abicheck.sh: filter G_GNUC before PRIVATE so $ is still true. Sun Nov 28 01:37:54 2004 * gsignal.c: applied patch by sven@gimp.org (#153727) to reduce signal connection complexity from O(n_handlers) to O(1). Thu Nov 25 14:09:41 2004 Manish Singh * abicheck.sh: filter out G_GNUC stuff when doing the compare. 2004-11-23 Matthias Clasen * gobject.symbols: Typo fix. Fix a problem with the PLT reduction changes which caused the internal aliases to lose all attributes. * gobject.symbols: Add attribute annotations. * makegobjectalias.pl: Keep attribute annotations, but strip PRIVATE. * Makefile.am (gobject.def): Strip attribute annotations, but keep PRIVATE. * gtypemodule.h (g_type_module_get_type): Mark as const, like all other get_type() functions. 2004-11-12 Matthias Clasen * === Released 2.5.6 === Mon Nov 8 10:47:41 2004 Manish Singh * gobject/gsourceclosure.c: removed wrap_g_io_channel_ref() hack, since g_io_channel_ref() has a compatible API now. 2004-11-02 Matthias Clasen * === Released 2.5.5 === 2004-10-27 Matthias Clasen * === Released 2.5.4 === 2004-10-27 Matthias Clasen * abicheck.sh: Strip Win32 specific defs file syntax. * Makefile.am (gobjectalias.h): Fix srcdir != builddir builds. (#156447, Thomas Fitzsimmons) 2004-10-26 Matthias Clasen * abicheck.sh: Don't include symbols which are just in the symbols list for .defs file compatibility. 2004-10-23 Matthias Clasen * gtype.h (GTypeInterfaceCheckFunc): Rename first parameter to check_data, since apparently the system headers on AIX leak a macro named func_data. (#155178, Andrea Campi) Wed Oct 6 02:12:44 2004 * gtype.c (g_type_instance_get_private): applied patch from Jean-Yves Lefort to not access the instance_real_class_bsa pointer without holding the instance_real_class lock. 2004-10-04 Matthias Clasen * gsignal.c (g_signal_add_emission_hook): Improve the warning if G_SIGNAL_NO_HOOKS is set. (#154299, Nickolay V. Shmyrev) 2004-09-22 Tor Lillqvist * Makefile.am (install-libtool-import-lib): [Win32] Add code to remove the bug-compatibility entries (see #134813, and related comments below) from the import library. The PRIVATE keyword in the .def file is supposed to mean that, but it isn't implemented yet by GNU ld. * makegobjectalias.pl: In case the symbol is followed by some stuff ("PRIVATE") that's intended for the .def file, use just the actual symbol. * gobject.symbols: For binary bug compatibility on Win32, add the g_slist_remove_all and g_unichar_validate symbols inside #ifdef INCLUDE_INTERNAL_SYMBOLS. (See #134813 and log entries from March below.) 2004-09-18 Matthias Clasen * === Released 2.5.3 === Thu Sep 16 18:42:46 2004 Manish Singh * abicheck.sh: don't hardcode lengths for cut, instead split on the third field. 2004-09-16 Matthias Clasen Implement the same PLT reduction technique used in GTK+: * Makefile.am: Generate gobjectalias.h from gobject.symbols. (BUILT_SOURCES): Add gobjectalias.h. * makegobjectalias.pl: Script to generate gobjectalias.h. * *.c: Include gobjectalias.h 2004-09-16 Matthias Clasen Add ABI control using the same technique that is used in GTK+. * gobject.symbols: Master list of symbols. * gobject.def: Removed. It is now generated from gobject.symbols. * Makefile.am: Generate gobject.def from gobject.symbols. (TESTS): Add abicheck.sh (EXTRA_DIST): Add abicheck.sh (export_symbols): Don't export _-prefixed symbols. * gtype.h: * gtype.c: Move the declarations of the various _init() functions to the header, and mark them as G_GNUC_INTERNAL. 2004-08-25 Matthias Clasen * === Released 2.5.2 === 2004-08-01 Matthias Clasen * === Released 2.5.1 === 2004-07-28 Matthias Clasen * gtype.c (g_type_instance_get_private): Catch cases of forgotten g_type_add_private().

(#139058, Christophe Saout) 2004-04-15 Matthias Clasen * gparamspecs.c (param_float_init): Correct the initial minimal value to be -G_MAXFLOAT. The initial values were inconsistant before, with the initial default being smaller than the inital minimum. (param_double_init): Correct the initial minimal value to be -G_MAXDOUBLE. Tue Mar 9 09:16:11 2004 Owen Taylor * === Released 2.4.0 === 2004-03-10 Tor Lillqvist * gobject.def: Mark the two entries that shouldn't be in the import library (see below) as PRIVATE. Tue Mar 9 09:16:11 2004 Owen Taylor * === Released 2.3.6 === 2004-03-04 Tor Lillqvist * gobject.def: Another of the glib DLL's functions was erronously present in the stable branch's gobject.def: g_unichar_validate, and nobody noticed until too late. Thus there are applications deployed that expect it to be found in the gobject DLL, and to keep ABI compatibility, we must keep it there forever. Argh. Mon Mar 1 16:49:51 2004 Owen Taylor * === Released 2.3.5 === 2004-03-01 Tor Lillqvist * gobject.def: Add g_slist_remove_all back for ABI compatibility. That entry point actually is in the glib DLL, but it was at some time many years ago by mistake added to gobject.def. Thus there presumably are executables out there that expect it to be exported from the gobject DLL. We don't want to break those. (#134813, J. Ali Harlow) Fri Feb 27 01:49:22 2004 Matthias Clasen * glib-mkenums.in: Support parsing of intializers containing macros with arguments.

Tue Feb 3 21:24:01 2004 Tim Janik * 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 24 18:20:13 2004 Tim Janik * gtype.h: prefixed the parent_class variable defined by G_DEFINE_TYPE() with type_name. removed type_parent_class argument from G_DEFINE_TYPE_EXTENDED(). 2004-01-24 Tor Lillqvist * gobject.def: Add a missing entry. Sun Jan 11 15:34:35 2004 Manish Singh * gsourceclosure.c: wrap g_io_channel_ref in a function that returns the passed in GIOChannel, so we aren't abusing GBoxedCopyFunc semantics. Fixes bug #131076. Sat Jan 10 23:55:42 2004 Matthias Clasen * glib-mkenums.1: Document the lowercase_name trigraph option. Sat Jan 10 02:43:20 2004 Tim Janik * gtype.h: made G_DEFINE_TYPE_INTERNAL() public by renaming it to G_DEFINE_TYPE_EXTENDED() and moving it into the appropriate section. Fri Jan 9 23:41:00 2004 Matthias Clasen * gboxed.h: * gboxed.c (g_strv_get_type): Add a boxed type for nul-terminated string arrays.

(g_object_init): make the object enter a construct_objects list. (g_object_newv): remove object from construct_objects after creation. (g_object_set_valist): (g_object_set_property): allow construct-only properties for objects which are in construct_objects. Thu Nov 27 17:53:52 2003 Tim Janik * gtype.[hc]: (g_type_class_peek_static): variant of class_peek() which works for static types only. * gobject.c: (g_object_do_class_init): make ::notify a run-action signal. (g_object_newv): use g_type_class_peek_static() by default to speed up common code path (trades two write-locks for one read-lock). (g_object_disconnect): (g_object_connect): allow signal specification words to be seperated by '-'. (g_object_set_valist): (g_object_new_valist): don't leak values.

Wed Oct 3 16:02:24 2001 Owen Taylor * glib-genmarshal.c gparamspecs.[ch] gvalue.h gobject/gvaluetypes.[ch]: Add support for G_TYPE_INT64 and storing it in GValue (Patch from Mathieu Lacage, #59254.) 2001-10-03 jacob berkman * gtype.c (type_iface_retrieve_holder_info_Wm): (type_iface_vtable_init_Wm): (type_iface_vtable_finalize_Wm): (g_type_class_ref): * gobject.c (g_object_get_property): s/retrive/retrieve/ 2001-09-25 Tor Lillqvist * Makefile.am: Use new macros for .def file, and check for MS_LIB_AVAILABLE, new rule to build MS import library. * makefile.msc.in: Use same DLL and import library names as libtool. 2001-09-21 Hans Breuer * gobject.def : updated externals 2001-09-19 Tor Lillqvist * gobject.rc.in: Correct InternalName and OriginalFilename to match what we actually produce. Tue Sep 18 23:09:02 2001 Tim Janik * gparam.[hc]: rename *nick and *blurb fields to catch direct accesses in third party code. provide g_param_get_nick(), g_param_get_blurb() and g_param_get_name() accessors. Mon Sep 10 20:31:37 2001 Tim Janik * gobject.[hc]: removed extraneous GObject* returns from a couple functions that are very unlikely to be used in nested. changed gpointer->GObject* for a couple return values/arguments. this fixes #50206. Mon Sep 10 19:27:47 2001 Tim Janik * gtype.[hc]: g_type_add_interface*(): implement the ability to add an interface to a type whose parents already conform to this interface. such "overriding" interfaces, when initialized, are not just initialized with 0, but with a copy of the interface they override. g_type_interface_peek_parent(): new function, return the interface that this interface "overrides", if any. * testgruntime.c: test new interface stuff. 2001-09-10 Alex Larsson * gobject/gboxed.[ch]: * gobject/gsourceclosure.c: Removed is_refcounted and GBoxedInitFunc from g_boxed_type_register_static(). Sat Sep 8 14:13:57 2001 Owen Taylor * gobject/Makefile.am: Move gbsearcharray.[ch] to glib as a private ininstalled header. Tue Sep 4 22:24:48 2001 Matthias Clasen * gobject.c (g_object_base_class_finalize): typo fix. Tue Sep 4 01:49:18 2001 Tim Janik * gsourceclosure.c: make closure_callback_funcs static, added some g_return_if_fail() statements. Mon Aug 27 14:55:27 2001 Owen Taylor * gsourceclosure.[ch] (g_source_set_closure): Implement. * gsourceclosure.[ch]: Add GType's for GIOChannel, GIOCondition. 2001-08-17 James Henstridge * gobject.c (WeakRefStack): add an object member to the structure. (weak_refs_notify): pass wstack->object as extra argument to notify functions. (g_object_weak_ref): set wstack->object when initialising WeakRefStack. * gobject.h (GWeakNotify): add second argument to prototype which gives the pointer to where the object that is being disposed of was. Wed Jul 18 19:42:31 2001 Tim Janik * gtype.h: if __GNUC__ is defined, inline a test for an exact type match for instances and classes in G_TYPE_CHECK_INSTANCE_TYPE() and G_TYPE_CHECK_CLASS_TYPE() before calling g_type_instance_is_a(). Sun Aug 12 02:07:10 2001 Tim Janik * gvaluearray.[hc]: fix preallocation logic, support DISABLE_MEM_POOLS properly, group value allocations. (g_value_array_new): fix semantic of n_prealloced argument, so it's really just about preallocation space. 2001-07-23 Padraig O'Briain * gobject/gobjectnotifyqueue.c: fix unconditional check of first GParamSpec in g_object_notify_queue_thaw(); to prevent property notification being lost. 2001-08-06 Sven Neumann * gobject.[ch]: added new functions g_object_[add|remove]_weak_pointer(). 2001-08-01 Sven Neumann * gsignal.h: added convenience macro g_signal_connect_after(). 2001-07-29 Hans Breuer * gobject.def : updated externals 2001-07-20 Hans Breuer * gobject.def : updated externals * makefile.msc.in : reflect glib move Tue Jul 10 18:50:16 2001 Tim Janik * gsignal.h (struct _GSignalQuery): fix misplaced comment. Mon Jul 2 07:17:47 2001 Tim Janik * gobject.c (g_object_weak_ref): (g_object_watch_closure): congrats tim, introducing of-by-one errors like on my very first day of C programming. Sat Jun 30 11:07:00 2001 Tim Janik * gobject.[hc]: provide weak_ref/weak_unref functions, invoked from ->dispose. renamed ->shutdown() to ->dispose(), provide "public" API entry here: g_object_run_dispose(), this fucntion should _only_ be called from object system implementations (e.g. gtkobject.c) if at all. * gtypemodule.c (g_type_module_dispose): s/shutdown/dispose/ * gsignal.h: removed compat aliases. * gobject.c (g_object_connect): support data objects. Sat Jun 30 13:17:12 2001 Owen Taylor * testgruntime.c (test_object_class_init) gobject.c (g_object_do_class_init): g_signal_newc() => g_signal_new(). Thu Jun 28 22:49:40 2001 Owen Taylor * gtype.[ch] gobject-query.c testgruntime.c: Remove debug flag argument to g_type_init() and add g_type_init_with_debug_flags(). Thu Jun 28 16:42:49 2001 Tim Janik * gsignal.c (g_signal_lookup): (g_signal_list_ids): give elaborate warnings about invalid types, non-instantiatable types and unloaded types that we can't operate on. * gparam.[hc]: g_param_spec_pool_belongings() -> g_param_spec_pool_list_owned(). * gsignal.[hc]: renamed: g_signal_newc -> g_signal_new g_signal_disconnect_by_func -> g_signal_handlers_disconnect_by_func g_signal_block_by_func -> g_signal_handlers_block_by_func g_signal_unblock_by_func -> g_signal_handlers_unblock_by_func added GConnectType to simplify (..gboolean swapped, gboolean after) args. * gobject.[hc]: changed prototypes accordingly. 2001-06-22 Hans Breuer * gobject.def : updated externals * gobjectnotifyqueue.c : include for memset () Thu Jun 21 02:43:10 2001 Tim Janik * gparamspecs.h: s/long/int/ for default_value in enum and flags pspecs. Wed Jun 20 03:59:42 2001 Tim Janik * gtype.[hc]: added debugging variants g_type_name_from_class(), g_type_name_from_instance(). Mon Jun 11 17:07:06 2001 Tim Janik * gboxed.[hc]: remove left-over usages of an anonymous GBoxed typedef. * gobjectnotifyqueue.c: moved property notify queue implementation bits into this function. * gparam.[hc]: added g_param_spec_pool_belongings(), completed g_param_spec_pool_list(). added GParameter for _setv() functions. * gobject.[hc]: use gobjectnotifyqueue.h implementation now. got rid of properties_changed signal. new functions g_object_newv(), g_object_class_list_properties(). removed "properties_changed" signal. * gtype.[hc]: added g_type_depth() to figure number of parent types + 1 for a type. * gsignal.h: add g_signal_connect() (as per owen's request) and g_signal_connect_swapped(). 2001-06-13 Havoc Pennington * Makefile.am (progs_LDADD): link to ./libgobject-1.3.la since an installed libgobject was somehow being found; think it's a libtool bug, but this workaround should do for now. 2001-06-12 Havoc Pennington * Makefile.am (glib-mkenums): don't put $(srcdir)/glib-mkenums in bin_SCRIPTS, that breaks make install. Instead put 'glib-mkenums' in bin_SCRIPTS and cp it into builddir Thu May 31 17:56:47 2001 Owen Taylor * gobject-query.c: Fix mispelling in help output. (#53952, Skip Montanaro) 2001-05-28 Sebastian Wilhelmi * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Really distribute glib-mkenums, now that bin_SCRIPTS doesn't seem to care about doing so anymore. Mon May 28 06:51:24 2001 Tim Janik * gsignal.c (signal_emit_unlocked_R): fixed bad faux-pass, forgot to release signal lock when restarting emissions. Sun May 27 04:52:28 2001 Tim Janik * gsignal.[hc] (g_signal_stop_emission_by_name): added variant to stop signal emissions through a detailed_signal string. * gsignal.c (signal_emit_R) (g_signal_emit_valist): account for the fact that g_value_* functions may cause signal emissons by unlocking the global signal system lock around g_value_* functions. (signal_emit_unlocked_R): renamed this from signal_emit_R() to reflect that this functions acquires the lock on its own now. 2001-05-24 Hans Breuer * makefile.msc.in : changed depndencies to build glib-genmarshal first and statically linked with glib, which makes it independent from the installed glib version. Added new object files to build. * gobject.def : updated Thu May 24 08:52:02 2001 Owen Taylor * gobject.[ch] (g_value_set_object): gpointer, not gpointer *. 2001-05-22 Sebastian Wilhelmi * Makefile.am (bin_SCRIPTS): made 'make distcheck' happy. * gobject.def: Removed g_param_spec_stringc. Tue May 22 02:46:13 2001 Tim Janik * gobject.c (g_value_set_object): make g_value_set_object() take a gpointer v_object so people don't need to G_OBJECT() cast NULL pointers (C code convenience). Mon May 14 01:49:01 2001 Tim Janik * gsignal.[hc] (g_signal_handler_is_connected): new function to check whether a handler is still connected to an instance (by handler id). Thu May 10 14:00:48 2001 Tim Janik * gparamspecs.[hc]: removed g_param_spec_stringc() in lack of evidence of public need. * gsignal.h: added g_signal_disconnect_by_func(), g_signal_block_by_func() and g_signal_unblock_by_func() convenience macros as per owen's request. * gtype.c (SIZEOF_FUNDAMENTAL_INFO): align sizeof (GTypeFundamentalInfo) to size of longs and pointers. 2001-05-05 James Henstridge * Makefile.am: glib-mkenums is not a compiled program, so shouldn't be in the bin_PROGRAMS primary. Put it in bin_SCRIPTS instead, and removed the glib_mkenums_SOURCES var. Thu May 3 06:10:23 2001 Owen Taylor * gobject.c (g_object_set_[q]data_full): Make types of ternary operator correspond. (Fixes compilation errors with Sun CC, #52230) Mon Apr 30 20:03:56 2001 Tim Janik * glib-mkenums (usage): removed \v escaping, newer perl versions don't support this, and it'S probably useless anyways. Sat Apr 28 23:39:42 2001 Tim Janik * gsignal.[hc]: made signal handler and emission hook ids gulongs. (signal_handlers_foreach_matched_R): only invoke callback for handlers that are not disconnected (id>0). (signal_emit_R): prevent invocation of signal handlers during the emission they were connected within. * glib-mkenums: publically installed perl-script to parse C code enums and generate descriptions thereof. * glib-mkenums.1: assorted man page. 2001-04-19 Havoc Pennington * gobject.c (g_object_get_valist): We were returning junk memory here, because we didn't copy the value (G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS passed to G_VALUE_LCOPY) and then we freed the GValue immediately after. Removed G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS from here; need a G_VALUE_STEAL_CONTENTS or the like if we want this optimization. Wed Apr 18 09:46:56 2001 Owen Taylor * gobject.c gsignal.c: Change C++ comments for FIXME's to C comments. (Patch from Andres Salomon) 2001-04-14 Hans Breuer * gobject.def : updated Mon Apr 9 18:56:15 2001 Tim Janik * gclosure.c (g_closure_invoke): only require marshal/meta_marshal if we're valid (about to actually do marshalling). Tue Apr 3 20:23:24 2001 Tim Janik * NEWS: updates. Tue Apr 3 14:06:00 2001 Tim Janik * gparam.[hc]: added g_param_spec_pool_list() to list pspecs per owner_type. the pspecs are not referenced, so the caller is supposed to have some idea about owner_type not randomly nuking his pspec's. if this is going to provide problems in the future, we can either auto-ref the pspecs, or add a _foreach variant, though the latter would have to invoke the callback while pspec's mutex is acquired, so i just went for the _list variant for now. * gclosure.h (G_CALLBACK): made GCallback a void (*) (void) fucntion. Sat Mar 31 23:55:58 2001 Tim Janik * gtype.h: * gparamspecs.[hc]: applied patch from owen to implement GParamSpecUnichar. Fri Mar 30 07:34:02 2001 Tim Janik * gtype.c (type_iface_retrive_holder_info_Wm): * gtypeplugin.c (g_type_plugin_complete_interface_info): * gtypemodule.c (g_type_module_complete_interface_info): change order of instance_type and interface_type so they match the g_type_add_interface_*() API. * gsignal.c (g_signal_emit_valist): always assign C return value location, people depending on unaltered return values after emissions that had no handlers to run need to use g_signal_emitv(). * gtype.[hc] (g_type_query): new function to allow querying of class and object size (semantics like g_signal_query()). currently the implementation is better held conservative so as to only support types that are classed and static. 2001-03-29 Tor Lillqvist * gobject.def: Updates. Wed Mar 28 17:04:06 2001 Tim Janik * gobject.c (object_queue_property): only queue readable properties for notification changes. Thu Mar 22 13:36:50 2001 Tim Janik * gsignal.c (g_signal_newv): catch G_SIGNAL_RUN_FIRST with a return value. 2001-03-21 Martin Baulig * gboxed.[ch] (g_value_dup_boxed): This takes a `const GValue *' argument. 2001-03-18 Tor Lillqvist * gobject.def: Correct some renamed functions. Sat Mar 17 23:18:36 2001 Tim Janik * gobject.c (g_object_get_property): minor bug-fix. * gbsearcharray.[hc]: provide a macro for static initialization and functions g_bsearch_array_new() and g_bsearch_array_destroy() for dynamic allocations. * gboxed.c: introduce G_TYPE_GSTRING, boxed type for GString. * gclosure.[hc]: naming corrections. Fri Mar 9 16:42:08 2001 Tim Janik * gvaluetypes.[hc]: moved g_strdup_value_contents() into this file as a public function (was static in gobject.c before). it's a bit odd to have that function here, especially since it requires extra includes, but then it doesn't very well fit somewhere else either. * gparamspecs.c: added default/max/min checks to param spec creation functions. 2001-03-10 Tor Lillqvist * gobject.def: Add a couple of missing entries. * Makefile.am (libgobject_1_3_la_LIBADD): Use only on Win32. Fri Mar 9 14:57:17 2001 Tim Janik * testgruntime.c: test program. covers run first/last/cleanup signal handlers, return value accumulator, signal string returns, and interface types in signal arguments. * gtype.c (g_type_value_table_peek): for interface types without value table, try looking up a value table from an instantiatable prerequisite type (this is safe as an interface may only have one instantiatable prerequisiste). (type_check_is_value_type_U): same here. * gsignal.c (g_signal_newv): assert that return types never have G_SIGNAL_TYPE_STATIC_SCOPE set. (g_signal_newc): only create class closure if the class_offset is not 0. Fri Mar 9 10:14:00 2001 Tim Janik * gparamspecs.c (g_param_spec_object): use g_type_is_a() to check for object_type being a G_TYPE_OBJECT, not G_TYPE_IS_OBJECT(), since that wouldn't allow interface types. * gtype.c (g_type_interface_add_prerequisite): arg, fixed small cnp bug with bad implications and an off-by-one error. Thu Mar 8 16:34:22 2001 Owen Taylor * gvaluetransform.c: Include for memcpy. * gvaluetransform.c (DEFINE_SPRINTF): Remove unnecessary and ANSI-illegal ## token pasting. Thu Mar 8 18:11:52 2001 Tim Janik * gsignal.c: eek, fixed old hook detail storage code. Thu Mar 8 16:35:48 2001 Tim Janik * gparamspecs.[hc]: s/g_param_spec_string_c/g_param_spec_stringc/. * gsignal.[hc]: fixed accumulator invocation, implemented emission hooks. and no, neither of these callbacks are called via a closure, language bindings can wrap the accumulator and emission hook interface, they already get parameters marshalled into a GValue array. (g_signal_connect): removed this function as its C specific, doesn't cover the swapped argument, is too close to its broken original gtk_signal_connect() and creates demand for _swapped, _after and _swapped_after variants . (g_signal_connectc): convenience macro to connect a C handler func with data, like the old g_signal_connect() plus swapped argument. * gtype.h: * gboxed.c: added G_TYPE_VALUE boxed type. Wed Mar 7 19:02:51 2001 Tim Janik * gtype.c (type_node_add_iface_entry_W): catch when adding an interface to an ancestor of a child that already conforms to this interface. currently we spew a warning here, should we be silent? (g_type_interface_add_prerequisite): new function to add a prerequisite type to an interface, that must succeed an instance is_a prerequisite type check before the interface can be added to an instance. the prerequisite types are also suuported in is_a checks of the interface. (g_type_instance_is_a): (g_type_check_instance_cast): (g_type_check_instance): cleanups and optimizations. (g_type_class_is_a): (g_type_check_class_cast): same, also prevented these from accepting interface types, as class structures don't nest interfaces. 2001-03-07 Sebastian Wilhelmi * Makefile.am: Avoid rebuilding everything everytime. Wed Mar 7 09:36:33 2001 Tim Janik * gboxed.[hc]: changed prototype of g_boxed_type_register_static() to contain an optional init function and a hint at whether the boxed structure uses ref counting internally. added g_value_set_boxed_take_ownership(). made G_TYPE_BOXED an abstract value type. * genums.[hc]: made G_TYPE_ENUM and G_TYPE_FLAGS abstract value types. * glib-genmarshal.c: argument type changes, preparation for third-party arg specification. * gobject.[hc]: cleaned up get/set property code. added g_strdup_value_contents() to improve warnings. * gparam.[hc]: added g_param_value_convert(), taking over responsibility of the old g_value_convert(). added G_PARAM_LAX_VALIDATION flag so validation alterations may be valid a part of the property setting process. * gparamspecs.[hc]: made value comparisons stable (for sort applications). added GParamSpecValueArray, a param spec for value arrays and GParamSpecClosure. nuked the value exchange functions and GParamSpecCCallback. * gtype.[hc]: catch unintialized usages of the type system with g_return_val_if_uninitialized(). introduced G_TYPE_FLAG_VALUE_ABSTRACT to flag types that introduce a value table, but can't be used for g_value_init(). cleaned up reserved type ids. * gvalue.[hc]: code cleanups and saner checking. nuked the value exchange API. implemented value transformations, we can't really "convert" values, rather transforms are an anylogy to C casts, real conversions need a param spec for validation, which is why g_param_value_convert() does real conversions now. * gvaluearray.[hc]: new files that implement a GValueArray, a struct that can hold inhomogeneous arrays of value (to that extend that it also allowes undefined values, i.e. G_VALUE_TYPE(value)==0). this is exposed to the type system as a boxed type. * gvaluetransform.c: new file implementing most of the former value exchange functions as single-sided transformations. * gvaluetypes.[hc]: nuked G_TYPE_CCALLBACK, added g_value_set_string_take_ownership(). * *.h: s/G_IS_VALUE_/G_VALUE_HOLDS_/. * *.[hc]: many fixes and cleanups. * many warning improvements. Tue Feb 27 18:35:15 2001 Tim Janik * gobject.c (g_object_get_valist): urg, pass G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS into G_VALUE_LCOPY(), this needs proper documenting. * gparam.c: fixed G_PARAM_USER_MASK. * gtype.c (type_data_make_W): (type_data_last_unref_Wm): fixed invalid memory freeing. * gobject.c (g_object_last_unref): destroy signal handlers associated with object, right before finalization. * gsignal.c (g_signal_parse_name): catch destroyed nodes or signals that don't actually support details. * gobject.[hc]: got rid of property trailers. nuked GObject properties "data" and the "signal" variants. (g_object_connect): new convenience function to do multiple signal connections at once. (g_object_disconnect): likewise, for disconnections. * gparam.[hc] (g_param_spec_pool_lookup): took out trailer support. * gvalue.[hc]: marked g_value_fits_pointer() and g_value_peek_pointer() as private (the latter got renamed from g_value_get_as_pointer()). 2001-02-21 Tor Lillqvist * *.h: Use G_BEGIN_DECLS and G_END_DECLS. * Makefile.am: Use libglib-1.3.la from top_builddir. Invoke libtool with -no-undefined for Win32 and Cygwin. Wed Feb 21 18:31:46 2001 Jonathan Blandford * gsignal.h (g_signal_connect): Add g_signal_connect define to make porting from gtk_signal_connect easy. * gsignal.c (g_signal_emit_valist): Use G_TYPE_FROM_INSTANCE (instance) instead of node->itype when initting the value. 2001-02-17 Havoc Pennington Applied patch from Soeren Sandmann: * gvaluetypes.c (g_value_get_string): G_CONST_RETURN * gtype.c (g_type_name): G_CONST_RETURN * gsignal.c (g_signal_name): G_CONST_RETURN * gobject-query.c (main): const fix Sat Feb 17 07:58:46 2001 Tim Janik * genums.h (G_TYPE_IS_FLAGS): patch from sven to fixup G_ENUM_CLASS_TYPE() macro. Sat Feb 17 04:55:35 2001 Tim Janik * gtype.[hc]: changed collect_format, collect_value() and lcopy_format, lcopy_value() in the GTypeValueTable. the collect functions are now called only once per value, collect_format/lcopy_format are strings that enlist all necessary GTypeCValues to be varargs-collected. * gvalue.h: ranamed STATIC_TAG to G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS to indicate that a value shouldn't copy its contents. * gvaluecollector.h: changed G_VALUE_COLLECT() and G_VALUE_LCOPY() macros to carry an additional argument (flags) that can be used to pass G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS along to the collection functions. * *.c: adapted collect_value() and lcopy_value() functions to the new prototypes, support G_VALUE_NOCOPY_CONTENTS where apropriate. * gsignal.[hc]: introduced a G_SIGNAL_TYPE_STATIC_SCOPE flag that can be passed along (ORed) with the parameter types, indicating that the emission arguments are to be considered static for the scope of the emission. should be used with care and only if the caller knows that a parameter cannot be destroyed/freed from signal handlers connected to an emission. Fri Feb 16 07:10:44 2001 Tim Janik * gclosure.c: (g_closure_ref): (g_closure_sink): make closure sinking explicit. * gsignal.c: (g_signal_connect_data): (g_signal_connect_closure): (g_signal_connect_closure_by_id): (g_signal_newv): perform explicit closure sinking. Thu Feb 8 00:31:45 2001 Tim Janik * gtype.h: added G_TYPE_DEBUG_NONE for/from Eric Lemings ;) 2001-02-04 Tor Lillqvist * gobject.def: Remove glib_debug_objects. Sun Feb 4 07:30:53 2001 Tim Janik * gtype.[hc]: changed g_type_init() to take debugging flags initially, a combination of G_TYPE_DEBUG_OBJECTS and G_TYPE_DEBUG_SIGNALS. using the G_TYPE_ prefix is a bit odd here, but basically g_type_int() serves as initialization fucntion for all of GType, GObject, GSignal, so what the heck. * gobject.c: special case debugging code properly. changed glib_trap_object_ref to g_trap_object_ref. * gsignal.c: add signal emission debugging abilities, along with a new trap object g_trap_instance_signals. 2001-02-04 Tor Lillqvist * Makefile.am (progs_LDADD): Change order of libs to libgobject first, then libglib. Needed for cygwin, says jbdoll@kepri.re.kr. Wed Jan 31 06:19:49 2001 Tim Janik * gparam.h: gtk-doc sucks for not dealing with #define inside enums. * gtype.[hc]: added G_TYPE_FLAG_RESERVED_ID_BIT, a bit in the type number that's supposed to be left untouched (preserved mainly for the signal code). * *.c: added thread safety code, based on an old patch from sebastian. the remaining thread safety issues are now datalists on pspecs (to be solved im gdataset.c) and gvalue.c where locking concerns value exchange functionality only, and that's soon to be revised. 2001-01-27 Tor Lillqvist * makefile.msc.in: Don't try to compile gmarshal.c on its own. 2001-01-24 * gclosure.c (g_closure_unref): Don't leak closure->notifiers. 2001-01-05 Havoc Pennington * gparamspecs.c (g_param_spec_enum): set the value_type in the param spec; closes bug 40210 (g_param_spec_flags): ditto for flags 2001-01-03 Alexander Larsson * gobject.c: Move glib_debug_objects out of the G_ENABLE_DEBUG #ifdef. Thu Dec 28 11:36:44 2000 Tim Janik * gbsearcharray.c (upper_power2): disable G_BSEARCH_ALIGN_POWER2 fucntionality if DISABLE_MEM_POOLS is defined. * gtype.c: honour DISABLE_MEM_POOLS. * gsignal.c (g_signal_init): flag signal key bsearch array with G_BSEARCH_ALIGN_POWER2 to avoid excessive growth time. honour DISABLE_MEM_POOLS. * gparam.h: added G_PARAM_READWRITE alias for (G_PARAM_READABLE | G_PARAM_WRITABLE). 2000-12-15 Tor Lillqvist * gobject.def: Update. 2000-12-15 Havoc Pennington * gobject.c (g_object_do_class_init): use g_signal_newc * gsignal.c (g_signal_newc): convenience function for signals created from C (g_signal_new_valist): added (g_signal_new): removed Fri Dec 15 04:40:23 2000 Tim Janik * gparam.[hc]: add an instance member value_type so the default value of the pspec class can be overridden. 2000-12-14 Tor Lillqvist * makefile.mingw.in: Update, include parts from Makefile.am to build gmarshal.[ch]. Some day, we won't need these separate makefiles for Win32 compilation. I hope. * makefile.msc.in: Update. No use trying to build gmarshal.[ch] here, it would require Unixish tools. MSVC users building from CVS sources are out of luck. * gobject.def: Update. Wed Dec 13 09:31:26 2000 Tim Janik * gparamspecs.[hc]: add G_TYPE_PARAM_BOXED implementation. * gobject.[hc]: minor fixes. Tue Dec 12 23:38:02 2000 Tim Janik * Makefile.am: _never_ touch oldest-source-stamp. * gobject.[hc]: construct property handling fixes/improvements. fixed trailer handling in get/set property. * gparam.[hc]: implement param spec pool, got rid of param spec hashtable. the most prominent change is that e deal with type prefixes here. 2000-12-12 Elliot Lee * Makefile.am: . You have to 'touch oldest-source-stamp' if you want to avoid having the Makefile constantly rebuild itself. . Fix marshaller generation rules to work with srcdir != builddir (there were issues with trying to run "./glib-genmarshal", etc.) Mon Dec 11 04:44:11 2000 Tim Janik * gboxed.c: fixed dealing with collection/lcopy of NULL values. * gclosure.h: removed insane ramblings, added G_CALLBACK() a casting convenience macro. * Makefile.am: cleanups, marshaller generation rules. * gmarshal.[hc]: new files with GRuntime standard marshallers. * glib-genmarshal.c: fix log domain, support gruntime standard marshallers, suport G_TYPE_PARAM, come with extern "C" and #include gmarshal.h. * glib-genmarshal.1: reflect glib-genmarshal.c updates. * gobject.[hc]: implement object constructor. rework parameter changed notification queueing, we support queue freezes now and don't dispatch from an idle handler anymore. parameter->property rename hassle. implemented ::properties_changed and ::notify::* signals for property change notification (the later supports property names as details). added signal connection and named data properties. (g_signal_connect_object): new function to setup while_alive connections. (g_object_class_install_property): sink properties now, since they are initially floating. (g_object_steal_data): (g_object_set_data_full): (g_object_set_data): (g_object_get_data): set/get data by using g_datalist_*() functions directly. (g_object_queue_param_changed): nuked. (g_object_freeze_notify): start queueing of property changes (freeze/ thaw calls stack). (g_object_notify): announce changes of a certain property directly. (g_object_thaw_notify): process queue of property changes, therefore emitting GObject::notify::detail with detail being the changed properties names. (G_OBJECT_WARN_INVALID_PROPERTY_ID): saner macro variant of former G_WARN_INVALID_PARAM_ID(). * gparam.[hc]: param specs are now initially floating and need to be sunken with g_param_spec_sink(), support G_TYPE_PARAM values. added G_PARAM_CONSTRUCT and G_PARAM_CONSTRUCT_ONLY parameter flags, required by GObjectClass.constructor(). * gparamspecs.[hc]: added GParamSpecParam, GParamSpecPointer and GParamSpecCCallback, param specs for G_TYPE_PARAM, G_TYPE_POINTER and G_TYPE_CCALLBACK respectively. * gsignal.[hc]: cleanups. (signal_id_lookup): after walking the anchestry, try interfaces as well. (g_signal_new): new function to create signals from varargs type list. (g_signal_connect_closure): closure connection variant that works from signal name+detail. (g_signal_connect_data): c handler connection variant that works from signal name+detail. (g_signal_emit_valist): emit signal for an instance with paraneters collected from a va_list. (g_signal_emit): emit signal, taking parameters from varargs list. (g_signal_emit_by_name): same as g_signal_emit, working from signal name+detail. (signal_emit_R): return whether return_value needs to be altered. * gtype.[hc]: set log-domain to GRuntime, i'm slowly getting to all the points that need to reflect the upcoming rename. melt g_type_conforms_to() functionality into g_type_is_a(), as that is what we really want (liskov substitution principle). assorted changes to other files due to conforms_to->is_a. * gvalue.[hc]: implemented g_value_set_instance() that sets a value from an instantiatable type via the value_table's collect_value() function (based on an idea from James Henstridge ). cleanups/fixes. * gvaluetypes.[hc]: implement G_TYPE_CCALLBACK and G_TYPE_PARAM. Wed Nov 29 13:30:05 2000 Tim Janik * gsignal.c (handlers_find): fix elliots "logic fix" that dereferences NULL nodes if C handlers are searched for specific signals. 2000-11-28 Elliot Lee * gsignal.c: Fix warnings about possible use of uninitialized variables, and fix logic that would leave 'node' unset in cases that it might be used in. * glib-genmarshal.c: Fix warning about printf format. 2000-11-28 Tor Lillqvist * gboxed.c: Include for memset (). 2000-11-22 Tor Lillqvist * gobject.def: Update. 2000-11-20 Havoc Pennington * gobject.c (g_object_get_data) (g_object_set_data) (g_object_set_data_full) (g_object_steal_data): More convenient data-setting functions Wed Nov 15 20:58:05 2000 Owen Taylor * gtypemodule.c (g_type_module_use): If loading the module fails, don't increment the use count. Thu Nov 9 01:49:43 2000 Tim Janik * gobject.h (G_WARN_INVALID_PARAM_ID): doh, s/BSE_OBJECT_TYPE_NAME/G_OBJECT_TYPE_NAME/; reported by Maas-Maarten Zeeman . Mon Nov 13 00:48:39 2000 Owen Taylor * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add glib-genmarshal.1 2000-11-11 Tor Lillqvist * gtypemodule.c: Include stdlib.h for exit(). * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in (gobject_OBJECTS): Add gtypemodule. * gobject.def: Add missing functions. Sun Nov 5 13:21:28 2000 Owen Taylor * Makefile.am gtypemodule.[ch]: New basic implementation of GTypePlugin interface as a GObject. Dynamically loaded modules can register any number of types and interface on the module. Sun Nov 5 10:25:40 2000 Owen Taylor * gsignal.c (handlers_find): When appending handlers and not matching on signal_id, use hlist->signal_id instead of signal_id. Having the correct signal_id when unreffing the handlers makes things work a lot better. 2000-11-05 Tor Lillqvist * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in (gobject_OBJECTS): Add gtypeplugin. * gobject.def: Update. Sun Nov 5 05:22:55 2000 Tim Janik * gsignal.c: fixed a bag full of subtle bugs of immensive screw-up potential in handlers_find(), luckily no one found out about them yet ;) fixed signal_handlers_foreach_matched_R() so it operates on an initial handler list snapshot provided by handlers_find() to work around general reentrancy problems and to avoid multiple callback() invocations on the same handlers. this code is now officially 80% bug free (10% remaining for interface types, and 10% remaining for destroyed signals ;) Sat Nov 4 02:01:33 2000 Tim Janik * gsignal.c (_g_signals_destroy): valid signal nodes start out at 1. * gtypeplugin.[hc]: new files holding a GTypePlugin interface implementation that provides the API required by GType to deal with dynamically loadable types. * gtype.[hc]: displace any GTypePlugin business to gtypeplugin.h. Fri Nov 3 07:35:00 2000 Tim Janik * gsignal.[hc]: prefix internal functions with '_'. renamed g_signal_connect_closure() to g_signal_connect_closure_by_id(). added g_signal_parse_name() to retrive signal_id and detail quark from a signal name (internal). Wed Nov 1 03:36:54 2000 Tim Janik * gobject.c (g_object_base_class_finalize): destroy all signals that the finalized obejct type introduced. * gsignal.c (g_signals_destroy): don't require itype to have signals. * gobject.c (g_object_do_finalize): make sure all signal handlers are destroyed. * gsignal.[hc]: (g_signal_handler_find): only match on non-0 masks. (g_signal_handlers_block_matched): (g_signal_handlers_unblock_matched): (g_signal_handlers_disconnect_matched): new functions to block/unblock or disconnect handlers in groups. 2000-10-30 Sebastian Wilhelmi * gvalue.c (exchange_entries_equal), gparam.c (param_spec_equals): made both functions return gboolean just for the little extra standard conformance now that GEqualFunc is introduced. Mon Oct 30 05:52:45 2000 Tim Janik * gsignal.c (g_signal_list_ids): get rid of inline documentation owen added, the doc system would ignore it anyways (for some reason not aparent to me). Mon Oct 30 03:00:07 2000 Tim Janik * gsignal.[hc] (g_signal_list_ids): renamed owen's g_type_signals(), added required mutex locks. Sun Oct 29 02:31:03 2000 Owen Taylor * gsignal.c (g_type_signals): Fix problem where signals with "_" in them appeared twice in the result array. Sun Oct 29 01:58:44 2000 Owen Taylor * gsignal.h: Add g_type_signals() - a function to list all signals for a given type. Sat Oct 28 00:28:09 2000 Tim Janik * gclosure.c (g_closure_add_marshal_guards): fixed notifier position for post_marshal guard which was off at 0. Fri Oct 27 21:49:31 2000 Tim Janik * gobject.[hc]: doh, fix argument order in for g_cclosure_new_object_swap and g_cclosure_new_object. 2000-10-28 Tor Lillqvist * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in: Make glib-genmarshal.exe. * glib-genmarshal.c: Conditionalise include of unistd.h. Include on Win32. * gobject.def: Add some missing entry points. Fri Oct 27 16:33:41 2000 Tim Janik * gsignal.[hc]: publically define GSignalInvocationHint structure that gets passed in to closure invocations. added signal details. renamed GSignalType to GSignalFlags to comply with conventions. quite some cleanups and minor fixes. avoid uneccessary handler list walks upon invocation of after handlers. relookup handler list for restarted emissions. preliminary abort normal handler invocation if after handler is encountered. * glib-genmarshal.c: * gclosure.[hc]: moved invocation_hint to the end of the g_closure_invoke() arguments as sugegsted by kenelson. also made it a gpointer to be more generic. the invocation_hint is a caller specific thing that can be used to pass additional data in to closure invocations as documented with the caller invoking the closure. Fri Oct 27 05:35:14 2000 Tim Janik * gobject.c (g_object_watch_closure): fixed realloc bug, reported by havoc. * gsignal.c (g_signal_newv): fixed deadlock scenarion where g_signal_lookup() would be called with the signal lock being held. reported by james henstridge. * gclosure.c (g_closure_set_meta_marshal): fixed memcpy/overwrite bug reported by owen. 2000-10-26 Tor Lillqvist * gbsearcharray.c (bsearch_array_insert): Fix gccisms (pointer arithmetic on void pointer, label without statement following. * gtype.c (type_node_fundamental_info): Don't apply unary minus to result of sizeof operator, it can be unsigned. Cast first to gssize. * gobject.def: Add new functions. * makefile.{mingw,msc}.in: Add new objects. 2000-10-26 Sebastian Wilhelmi * Makefile.am: Remove empty SUBDIRS line _again_, as that _still_ prevents 'make dist' from working. Wed Oct 25 19:11:03 2000 Owen Taylor * gbsearcharray.h (g_bsearch_array_get_nth): Don't use implicit casts from void * since this will get included from C++ too at times. Thu Oct 26 00:30:27 2000 Tim Janik * gvaluetypes.[hc]: added g_value_set_static_string(). * gboxed.[hc]: const corrections. added g_value_set_static_boxed(). Wed Oct 25 20:27:02 2000 Tim Janik * gtype.c (g_type_free_instance): for the moment, freeing object structures will fill their memory portion with 0xAA. there's a FIXME there, remove this line at a later point. Tue Oct 24 23:10:26 2000 Tim Janik * glib-genmarshal.1: * glib-genmarshal.c: added publically installed marshaller generator. * gtype.h: added G_TYPE_INSTANCE_GET_INTERFACE() to retrive a certain interface VTable from instances. Mon Oct 23 08:28:15 2000 Tim Janik * gobject.[hc]: new functions for closure maintenance: (g_object_watch_closure): maintain validity of the object and the closure for objects that are used as data part of a closure. (g_cclosure_new_object): convenience function to create C closures that have an object as data argument. (g_closure_new_object): convenience function to create closures that have an object as data argument. * gclosure.[hc]: implementation of GClosure mechanism. a closure is basically an encapsulation of a callback function and its environment. ideally, most places supporting callback functions will simply take a GClosure* pointer and thus unify callback environments wrg destroy notification etc. GClosure provides destroy notifiers for arbitrary data pointers, reference counting, invalidation notification (it can be invalidated which is merely a deactivate state) and a marshallinbg abstraction. GCClosure is also provided in these files, they present a specialized GClosure implementation for C language callbacks. * genum.c: macro cleanups. * gboxed.[hc]: new files, for boxed type abstraction. (g_boxed_copy): copy a boxed structure (g_boxed_free): free a boxed structure (g_value_set_boxed): (g_value_get_boxed): standard GValue functions for boxed types (g_boxed_type_register_static): convenience function for easy introduction of new G_TYPE_BOXED derivatives. * gparam.[hc]: introduced g_param_type_register_static(), a short hand for creation of new GParamSpec derived types. * gtype.[hc]: many fixes, introduced ability to flag individual type nodes as ABSTRACT upon registration, added value_peek_pointer() to the value table to peek at GValue contents as a pointer for types that support this. fixed up GValue checks. * gvalue.[hc]: added g_value_fits_pointer() and g_value_get_as_pointer() to peek at the value contents as pointer. * *.[hc]: adaptions to type macro fixes and changes in the type registration API. * many const corrections over the place. Sat Oct 21 02:49:56 2000 Tim Janik * gtype.c (g_type_conforms_to): this function basically behaves like and is_a check, except that it _additionally_ features interfaces for instantiatable types. enforce this in the second branch as well (`type' conforms_to `type') even if `type' is not an interface type. Fri Oct 20 15:31:04 2000 Tim Janik * gvaluetypes.[hc]: added G_TYPE_POINTER implementation from jrb. * gtype.[hc]: * gobject.c: * gvaluetypes.c: added GTypeValueTable.value_peek_pointer and suitable implementations of this for G_TYPE_STRING, G_TYPE_OBJECT and G_TYPE_POINTER. Mon Aug 21 04:13:37 2000 Tim Janik * gbsearcharray.[hc]: long standing needed generic implementation of a binary searchable, sorted and dynamically sized array. 2000-10-15 Raja R Harinath * Makefile.am (BUILT_EXTRA_DIST): New variable. (dist-hook): Handle $(BUILT_EXTRA_DIST). (*): Remove traces of @STRIP_{BEGIN,END}@. 2000-09-29 Martin Baulig Several minor ANSI C fixes. Added missing casts: * gtype.c (type_class_init): `(gpointer) bnode->data->class.class_init_base' in call to g_slist_prepend() and 'GBaseInitFunc class_init_base = (GBaseInitFunc) slist->data'. * gobject.c: Put text following #endif into comments. 2000-09-25 Sebastian Wilhelmi * Makefile.am: Remove empty SUBDIRS line, as that prevents make dist from working. Sat Sep 9 20:04:13 2000 Owen Taylor * gobject.c (g_object_last_unref): Move call to g_type_free_instance() here from g_object_do_finalize, since g_type_free_instance() can unload the object's implementation. 2000-07-27 Tor Lillqvist * gobject.c: No, don't mark glib_debug_objects for export here, it's handled specially in gtktypeutils.c. * gobject.def: Export g_type_fundamental_last (the function). 2000-07-26 Tor Lillqvist * gobject.def * gobject.c: Mark glib_debug_objects for export/import as it is used by GTK+. Sun Jul 23 17:23:35 2000 Tim Janik * gtype.[hc]: make g_type_fundamental_last() a function, avoiding all that extern variable clutter and avoiding further problems with thread safety. 2000-07-19 Tor Lillqvist * gparam.h * gvalue.h * gparam.c * gtype.c: Shut up Sun's picky compiler. 2000-07-14 Tor Lillqvist * gobject.def: Add g_type_get_plugin. Thu Jul 13 02:07:54 2000 Tim Janik * gparam.c (g_param_value_defaults): default initialize the temporary default value, instead of nuking the caller's value contents. 2000-07-11 Raja R Harinath * gtype.c (g_type_get_plugin): Don't return just 0 or 1. Tue Jul 11 02:48:13 2000 Tim Janik * gtype.[hc]: removed g_type_is_dynamic() and added g_type_get_plugin(). 2000-07-10 Tor Lillqvist * gobject-query.c: Include ../config.h for HAVE_UNISTD_H. Use it to guard inclusion of . * gtype.h: Fix copy-paste errors in the ifdefs on how to declare a variable for export. Call the macro GOBJECT_VAR. * gtype.c: Declare _g_type_fundamental_last for export here, too. (type_node_any_new): Use only constant expressions for sizeof operator (for instance MSVC requires this). * makefile.mingw.in: Define GOBJECT_COMPILATION. Sun Jul 9 21:21:46 2000 Owen Taylor * genums.c: Move string.h include into the .c file instead of where it was in the .h file by mistake. Thu Jul 6 15:30:27 2000 Owen Taylor * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): dist fixes. * gobject.c: Add a global variable glib_debug_objects (not in header file) to control object tracing. 2000-07-01 Tor Lillqvist * gobject.def: Update added and renamed entry points. * makefile.mingw.in: Add gvaluetypes.o. Thu Jun 29 16:02:07 2000 Owen Taylor * gobject.c:include string.h for memset * genums.h: include string.h for strcpy * gvalue.c: include string.h for memset, memcpy. Sat Jun 24 23:03:04 2000 Tim Janik * gtype.[hc]: provide G_TYPE_CHAR, G_TYPE_UCHAR, G_TYPE_BOOLEAN, G_TYPE_INT, G_TYPE_UINT, G_TYPE_LONG, G_TYPE_ULONG, G_TYPE_FLOAT, G_TYPE_DOUBLE and G_TYPE_STRING fundamental types. added a GTypeValueTable* pointer to GTypeInfo structure for types to implement GValue handling functions. GTypeValueTable contains the following members: value_init(): initialize a GValue structure. value_free(): free GValue structure contents (optional). value_copy(): copy one GValue contents to another GValue structure of collect_type: varargs collection type for the first variable argument to be collected by collect_value(). collect_value(): variable arguments collection function (optional). lcopy_type: varargs collection type for the first variable argument to be location copyied by lcopy_value(). lcopy_value(): variable arguments location copy function (optional). g_type_value_table_peek(): new function to retrive the GTypeValueTable* for a type node. ValueTables get inherited from parent types, unless overridden through the GTypeInfo structure. internally, GTypeValueTable support means an added overhead of one pointer per static or used dynamic type node. g_type_add_class_cache_func(): provide a cache_func/data pair to be called prior to a type nodes last_unref() function, this can be used to prevent premature class destruction. multiple installed cache_func() will be chained upon last_unref() untill one of them returns TRUE. the cache_func()s have to check the class id passed in to figure whether they actually want to cache the class of this type (since all classes are routed through the cache_func() chain). g_type_remove_class_cache_func(): remove a previously installed cache_func/data pair. the cache maintained by this function has to be clear when calling g_type_remove_class_cache_func() to avoid leaks. g_type_class_unref_uncached(): class unref function for cache_func() implementations, unreferences a class omitting the cache chain (and therefore unref->cache->unref->... loops). * gvaluetypes.[hc]: provide the value setters/getters for the primitive fundamental types boolean, char, uchar, int, uint, long, ulong, float, double and string. * gvalue.[hc]: provide G_TYPE_IS_VALUE() in terms of whether a GTypeValueTable is provided for this type. removed g_value_init_default(), g_value_validate(), g_value_defaults(), g_value_set_default() and g_values_cmp() as these are supplied by the GParamSpec API now. moved g_values_exchange() into the "implementation details" section, since it just provides the underlying functionality for g_value_convert(). * gvaluecollector.h: renamed the varargs value container from GParamCValue to GTypeCValue as the value collection methods are supplied by the type system now. G_PARAM_COLLECT_VALUE() and G_PARAM_LCOPY_VALUE() got renamed to G_VALUE_COLLECT() and G_VALUE_LCOPY() and operate without a GParamSpec structure now. * genums.h: macros cleanups/fixes. * genum.c: provide G_TYPE_ENUM and G_TYPE_FLAGS type and assorted g_value_{s|g}et_{enum|flags}() implementations. * gobject.[hc]: provide G_IS_VALUE_OBJECT(), G_TYPE_OBJECT ValueTable methods and g_value_{s|g}et_object(). * gparam.[hc]: reduced class to value_set_default(), value_validate() and values_cmp(). also parameters now need to fill in a GType value_type; field to indicate the GValue type they are handling. provide g_param_value_set_default(), g_param_value_defaults(), g_param_value_validate() and g_param_values_cmp(). * gparamspecs.[hc]: got rid of the g_value_* functions and the G_IS_VALUE_* macros. adapted param spec implementations according to the GParamSpecClass changes. Sat Jun 10 08:38:27 2000 Tim Janik * gtype.c (type_class_init): fetch the nth iface entry of the type node in the nth loop iteration, not alwys the first. bug discovered by Walt Pohl . (type_data_finalize_class_ifaces): same here, cut and paste rulez. Wed Jun 7 09:21:05 2000 Owen Taylor * Makefile.am (INCLUDES): Add top_builddir so glibconfig.h is found properly when build srcdir != builddir. (Patch from Eric Lemings) 2000-05-13 Tor Lillqvist * makefile.mingw.in * gobject.def * gobject.rc.in: New files, for Win32 (mingw) build. * Makefile.am: Add to EXTRA_DIST. Add rules to produce the corresponding non-*.in files. * gtype.h: (Win32:) Mark _g_type_fundamental_last for export/import from DLL. Fri May 5 01:15:48 2000 Tim Janik * gtype.h: add reserved fundamental ids for gtk types (for transition time). added G_TYPE_FUNDAMENTAL_MAX for gtk. Mon Apr 17 20:45:50 2000 Tim Janik * glib-gobject.c (g_object_base_class_finalize): oops, don't unset n_params prior to destructing them. Tue Apr 11 04:28:10 2000 Tim Janik * fixed a couple of bugs in the initial parameter/object implementations, after getting beast running on GObject and GValue. Fri Apr 7 04:27:49 2000 Tim Janik * glib-gobject.[hc]: completed parameter set/get implementations, along with asyncronous parameter changed notification queue. Sun Apr 2 04:54:36 2000 Tim Janik * glib-gobject.[hc]: GObject implementation, that is facilities for setting/getting quarked data and reference counting. * glib-gparamspecs.[hc]: first actuall parameter implementations for GLib, so far we have: char, uchar, bool, int, uint, long, ulong, enum, flags, float, double, string and object. each of these GParamSpecs is a new instantiatable type in its own respect, so the .c file derives 13 new types from G_TYPE_PARAM and defines over 50 (*2) conversion facilities. * glib-gvaluecollector.h: generic varargs handling stubs for GParamSpecs, private header file (does get installed for inclusion into user code though). * glib-gvalue.[hc]: GValue functionality implementation. * glib-gparam.[hc]: basis GParamSpec implementation for the virtual base type G_TYPE_PARAM. * glib-genums.[hc]: enum/flags type implementation, based on bseenum.[hc]. * glib-gtype.[hc]: GLib Type System implementation, heavily based on BSE's dynamic type system.
