Fri Jun 23 17:20:26 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org> * glib.h: define gstring in terms of gchar*. this typedef reflects the type name of the primitive G_TYPE_STRING in the gobject module. Sat Jun 24 23:03:04 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org> * 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 type id passed in to figure whether they actually wants to cache the class of this type (since any types 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. |

*** IMPORTANT *** This is a development version of GLib. You should be using a stable version, which is available at ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk/v1.2/. This version is meant for developers of GLib only: * You should not base stable software on this version of GLib. * GNOME developers should use a stable version of GLib. Distributions should *NOT* ship a development package of this GLib. Do not ship the headers and do not ship the glib-config script. These things will conflict with the stable 1.2 series. Package only enough to satisfy the requirements of some other package. Package only the library itself. Doing otherwise will do no favors to the community. If you install this version of GLib, we strongly recommend that you install it in a different prefix than GLib 1.2. Use --prefix as an argument to configure to do this. Otherwise, you will not be able to do development with GLib 1.2 any longer. *** You should be using GLib 1.2 instead. *** General Information =================== This is GLib version 1.3.1. GLib is a library which includes support routines for C such as lists, trees, hashes, memory allocation, and many other things. The official ftp site is: ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk The official web site is: http://www.gtk.org/ A mailing list is located at: gtk-list@redhat.com To subscribe: mail -s subscribe gtk-list-request@redhat.com < /dev/null (Send mail to gtk-list-request@redhat.com with the subject "subscribe") Installation ============ See the file 'INSTALL' How to report bugs ================== To report a bug, send mail either to gtk-list, as mentioned above, or to gtk-bugs@gtk.org. If you send mail to gtk-list, you must be subscribed yourself. In the mail include: * The version of GLib * Information about your system. For instance: - What operating system and version - What version of X - For Linux, what version of the C library And anything else you think is relevant. * How to reproduce the bug. If you can reproduce it with the testglib program that is built in the glib/ directory, that will be most convenient. Otherwise, please include a short test program that exhibits the behavior. As a last resort, you can also provide a pointer to a larger piece of software that can be downloaded. * If the bug was a crash, the exact text that was printed out when the crash occured. * Further information such as stack traces may be useful, but is not necessary. Patches ======= Patches can be uploaded to the incoming/ directory on ftp.gtk.org. Please follow the instructions there, and include your name and email address in the README file. If the patch fixes a bug, it is usually a good idea to include all the information described in "How to Report Bugs".
