Sebastian Wilhelmi 57a7a2b010 Determine the suffix of the shared librarries for this system. This is 
2000-12-22  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* configure.in: Determine the suffix of the shared librarries for
	this system. This is done analogous to
	ltconfig.sh. G_MODULE_SUFFIX in glibconfig.h is set to either
	"sl", "dll", or (most often) "so".

	* tests/Makefile.am, tests/module-test.c,
	tests/libmoduletestplugin_a.c, tests/libmoduletestplugin_b.c:
	Added new testcase for gmodule. This is mostly copied from
	gmodule/testgmodule.c, but unlike that is is quiet. (Why BTW are
	some tests that verbose, not to say loquacious...)

	* gmodule.c: Make g_module_open more tolerant wrt to the module
	name. First it tries to open the module as named, if that fails,
	it checks, whether it is a libtool archive and parses it, if that
	fails it appends the systems shared library suffix
	(i.e. ".so") (if not already found) and tries again and if that
	fails it tries to append the ".la" libtool suffix (if not already
	found) and parses it.

	* gmodule.c: Lock recursive mutex during most module functions for
	safety.

	* gmodule-dl.c: Return an error from _g_module_symbol only, if
	dlerror says so. All other functions return an error as well, if
	dlerror returns NULL.

	* testgmodule.c: Thanks to the above change the #ifdefs have
	vanished.

	* glib/glib-sections.txt: Added G_MODULE_SUFFIX.

	* glib/tmpl/modules.sgml: Updated.

README 

This package contains the reference documentation
for GLib. For more information about Glib,
see:

 http://www.gtk.org

For information about contributing to the
GLib/GTK+ reference documentation project, see:

 http://www.gtk.org/rdp/

The GLib reference documentation is freely redistributable,
see the file COPYING for details.


REQUIREMENTS
============

To build the documentation, you must have the gtk-doc
package installed. To rebuild the template files,
you must have the current version of the GLib
header files installed.


BUILD
=====

First, run configure to generate the makefiles for this
module. There is one option specific to this package

  --with-html-dir=DIR   top of installed HTML documentation tree


The Makefiles for this module define three targets:

 templates:
  
  Scan the headers and merge the results with the current 
  template files

 sgml:

  Generate SGML files using the DocBook DTD from
  the template files

 html:

  Generate HTML from the SGML files.

To build the documentation, do:

 make sgml
 make html

You should only run the 'make templates' step if you
need to regenerate the templates for a more recent
version of the GLib sources.


INSTALLATION
============

 make install
