glib/ChangeLog.pre-2-8

Fri Mar 11 23:51:12 2005  Soeren Sandmann  <sandmann@redhat.com>

	* glib/gfileutils.c (write_to_temp_file): Don't try and generate
	a dotfile from the name -- it doesn't work with absolute
	paths. Also make documentation indicate that symlinks will be
	overwritten. Both pointed out by Alexis S. L. Carvalho.

2005-03-11  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* m4macros/glib-gettext.m4: Avoid stupid compiler complaints
	about precision loss.

2005-03-10  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/gdate.c: Remove a lot of pointless g_return_if_fail()
	checks.  (#169859, Morten Welinder)

2005-03-10  Sven Neumann  <sven@gimp.org>

	* tests/file-test.c: include <gstdio.h>.

2005-03-10  Sven Neumann  <sven@gimp.org>

	* glib/gfileutils.c (get_contents_stdio): delay memory allocation
	until after the first read. Saves a bunch of reallocs. Also
	increased the buffer size to 4096 bytes. (bug #165954)

	* tests/file-test.c (test_get_contents): added a (very basic) test
	for g_file_get_contents().

Wed Mar  9 19:06:45 2005  Manish Singh  <yosh@gimp.org>

	* glib/glib.symbols: Add g_file_replace.

2005-03-09  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* configure.in: Bump version

2005-03-09  Sven Neumann  <sven@gimp.org>

	* glib/gfileutils.c (g_file_replace): avoid unnecessary filename
	conversions.

2005-03-09  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

	* glib/gutils.c (g_get_user_data_dir, g_get_user_config_dir,
	g_get_user_cache_dir, g_get_system_data_dirs,
	g_get_system_config_dirs): [Win32] Don't leak return value from
	get_special_folder(). (#169348, Daniel Atallah) Guard against
	g_home_dir being NULL, use g_tmp_dir/g_user_name in that case.

Tue Mar  8 15:46:54 2005  Søren Sandmann  <sandmann@redhat.com>

	* glib/gfileutils.c (g_file_replace): New API. A function to
	atomically create a file.

2005-03-08  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/glib.symbols: Add the new attributes here too.

	* glib/gmacros.h: Define G_GNUC_NULL_TERMINATED.
	(#164706, Marc Meissner)

	* glib/gstrfuncs.h: 
	* glib/gfileutils.h: Use G_GNUC_NULL_TERMINATED where
	appropriate.

	* glib/goption.c (parse_int): Fix an error message.  
	(#168751, Hazael Maldonado Torres)

2005-03-07  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/gdebug.h: Small cleanup (use G_BEGIN/END_DECLS).
	(#168474, Fabricio Barros Cabral)

2005-03-07  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/gutils.c (g_find_program_in_path): Mark the last
	paragraph of the docs as Windows-specific.  (#169433)

2005-03-06  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/gmarkup.c: Add G_GNUC_PRINTF attribute
	to set_error.
	(g_markup_parse_context_end_parse): Fix an
	error message, noticed by Tim Janik.

2005-02-24  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

	* glib/Makefile.am (BUILT_EXTRA_DIST): Don't distribute
	glib.def. (#167496, J. Ali Harlow)

	* glib/gfileutils.c (get_contents_win32): Use g_fopen(). (#168341,
	Daniel Atallah)

2005-02-23  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* configure.in: Don't forget to set G_THREAD_LIBS_FOR_GTHREAD 
	on non-linux platforms.  (#168177, Michael Banck)

	* tests/keyfile-test.c (test_locale_string): Set LANGUAGE 
	instead of LC_ALL to shield against LANGUAGE being set in 
	the environment.  (#168311, Suren A. Chilingaryan)

Tue Feb 22 22:03:38 2005  Manish Singh  <yosh@gimp.org>

	* glib/gstdio.h: On G_OS_UNIX, simple #define g_open and co. as
	aliases for their respective C library functions, instead of
	using the function wrappers. This avoids library users having to
	care about matching large file support with whatever glib has been
	built with. Fixes bug #167942.

	* glib/gstdio.c
	* glib/abicheck.sh
	* glib/glib.symbols
	* glib/makegalias.pl: Logic to make the gstdio wrappers still
	available for compatibility, but not used in new code.

Tue Feb 22 18:33:07 2005  Manish Singh  <yosh@gimp.org>

	* glib/gtimer.c (g_usleep): Simplify the loop for the fix below.

2005-02-20  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/gqueue.c (g_queue_new): Use a memchunk for
	sizeof(GQueue)-sized chunks.  (#167984, Fabrício Barros Cabral)

	* glib/gtimer.c (g_usleep): Fix usage of 
	nanosleep().  (#163039, Bastien Nocera)

2005-02-16  Adi Attar  <aattar@cvs.gnome.org>

	* configure.in: Added "xh" to ALL_LINGUAS.

2005-02-11  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

	* glib/giowin32.c: Include winsock2.h before windows.h, to avoid
	compilation errors with MSVC. (#167105)

2005-02-10  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/goption.c (print_help): Take main group options into
	account when calculating column size.  (#166921)
	(g_option_context_parse): Accept -? as documented.  (#166977)

2005-02-09  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>
	* glib/gkeyfile.c (find_file_in_data_dirs): Don't leak path
	here.  (#166801, Kjartan Maraas)

2005-02-08  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_parse_value_as_string): Don't
	write out of bounds.

	* glib/goption.c (g_option_context_parse): Fix a 
	one-too-short memory allocation.  (#166609, Nicolas Laurent)

	* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Add tests with
	MALLOC_CHECK_.

	* tests/option-test.c: Add a test for unkown short options.

2005-02-07  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/glib.symbols: 
	* glib/gutils.h: 
	* glib/gutils.c (g_listenv): New function to list all 
	environment variables.  (#166327, Hans Petter Jansson)

2005-02-07  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

	* glib-zip.in: Add gmodule-no-export-2.0.pc.

Sun Feb  6 21:59:09 2005  Manish Singh  <yosh@gimp.org>

	* glib/abicheck.sh: feed the contents of config.h and glibconfig.h
	into the preprocessor, since glib.symbols could need #defines
	from them.

Sun Feb  6 12:09:55 2005  Manish Singh  <yosh@gimp.org>

	* glib/gatomic.c: Don't use matching constraints for asm mem
	parameters. This makes the code match with current glibc, and
	quiets some warnings with gcc 3.4.

2005-02-05  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

	* configure.in (G_LIBS_EXTRA)
	* glib/giowin32.c: I think we can include <winsock2.h> and link
	with -lws2_32. Only Windows 95 originally didn't have Winsock 2,
	and it's available as an update for it. Not that we use any actual
	Winsock 2 -only features, but still, simpler to link directly with
	ws2_32.dll instead of going through wsock32.dll.

	* glib/gfileutils.c (g_file_get_contents): In the Win32 ABI
	stability version, call g_file_get_contents_utf8(), not
	itself. (#166386, Bill Skaggs)

2005-02-04  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* configure.in: Remove the --enable-ansi option  (#160469)

	* configure.in: Define a HAVE_GNUC_VISIBILITY automake
	conditional.

	* glib/Makefile.am (TESTS): Only check the abi if
	the compiler supports visibility, otherwise we
	know there will be (harmless) extra symbols.  
	(#166181, Ed Avis)

2005-02-02  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

	* glib/gwin32.h: Remove unnecessary MSVC-only typedef for
	pid_t. (#165910) GLib does not pretend to be a POSIX emulation
	library.

	* glib/gstdio.c: In the Win32 part of all functions, handle
	invalid UTF-8 more robustly. Don't pass the resulting NULL
	wide-char or codepage strings on to C library functions, but bail
	out early. (#166084)

	* glib/gfileutils.c: Don't use potentially incorrect errno in
	several places. (#165951)
	(g_mkstemp): Set errno appropriately.

2005-02-02  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/gutils.c: Move doc comments inline.

	* glib/ghash.h: Adjust some argument names.

	* configure.in: Give meaningful names to g_memmove() 
	arguments.

2005-02-01  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* tests/keyfile-test.c (test_key_remove): Add test case for
	key removal.

	* glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_remove_key): Actually remove 
	the key from the list of pairs.  (#165980, David Hoover)

	* glib/gkeyfile.c: Doc clarifications.  (#165907, Vincent Untz)

	* tests/keyfile-test.c (test_group_remove): Add test case for
	group removal.

	* glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_remove_group): Don't segfault
	if the group doesn't exist.  (#165887, Mathias Hasselmann)

2005-01-30  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* tests/keyfile-test.c: Some more unit tests.

2005-01-28  Christian Rose  <menthos@menthos.com>

	* configure.in: Added "tl" to ALL_LINGUAS.

2005-01-24  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* tests/run-markup-tests.sh: Let $srcdir default to .

	* tests/markups/fail-40.gmarkup: Add a test with a long entity
	name.

	* glib/gmarkup.c (unescape_text_state_inside_entity_name): Don't
	copy the entity name into a short buffer of fixed length. Instead,
	compare it in place with strncmp(), and do a full strdup() in the
	error path.  (#165100, Simon Budig)

2005-01-22  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

	* glib/gdate.c (g_date_set_time): Don't g_assert that localtime()
	returns non-NULL. It does return NULL at least on Win32 if you
	pass it a negative time_t, which although wrong, shouldn't cause
	an application to abort. Instead return 2000-01-01 as a default
	date. Print a warning unless G_DISABLE_CHECKS. (#164622)

2005-01-20  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_parse_value_as_integer): Don't
	interpret leading zeros as octal. The specification requires
	%f parsing, and %f doesn't allow octal.  

	* tests/keyfile-test.c: Add some more tests.

	* glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_get_keys): Return keys in
	the order found in the file, rather than the opposite.
	(g_key_file_parse_value_as_string): Fix error reporting.

2005-01-19  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_parse_data): Accept \r\n as 
	line end.  (#163030, Bastian Nocera)
	(g_key_file_load_from_data): Make -1 work as a size.
	
	* tests/keyfile-test.c: Some unit tests for the keyfile
	parser.  

	* tests/Makefile.am (test_programs): Add keyfile-test.

2005-01-19  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

	* glib/gbacktrace.c (g_on_error_stack_trace): On Win32 call
	G_BREAKPOINT() if being debugged.

	* glib/gmessages.c (g_logv): For fatal messages on Win32, use
	G_BREAKPOINT() also without G_ENABLE_DEBUG, but only if being
	debugged. Suggestion by Ulf Lamping.

2005-01-18  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/gqsort.c: Don't include alloca.h. It is not needed,
	and does not exist on win32.  (#164468, Kazuki IWAMOTO)

	* glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_get_boolean_list): Fix a
	sparse warning.  (#164467, Kjartan Maraas)

2005-01-17  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/gconvert.c (g_get_filename_charsets): Don't crash
	if G_FILENAME_ENCODING is empty.  (#164330, Pawel Sakowski)

2005-01-15  Tor Lillqvist  <tlillqvist@novell.com>

	* configure.in: sh portability fix. Use "test" and not [.
	(#163144, Robert Ögren)

2005-01-13  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/gqsort.c: Sync to glibc.  (#133994, Morten Welinder, 
	patch by Kjartan Maraas)

2005-01-11  Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* configure.in: Add gmodule-export-2.0.pc to AC_CONFIG_FILES.

	* glib/Makefile.am gobject/Makefile.am gthread/Makefile.am:
	Use grep | head -n 1 instead of grep -m 1 which doesn't work
	with slightly older versions of GNU grep in 
	install-libtool-import-lib rule.

2005-01-11  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/gdir.c (g_dir_open): Typo fix.

2005-01-10  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add missing ChangeLog.pre*

2005-01-09  Hans Breuer  <hans@breuer.org>

	* glib/gfileutils.c : make it compile with mvc6 default sdk,
	(#define INVALID_FILE_ATTRIBUTES, FILE_ATTRIBUTE_DEVICE)

2005-01-09  Tor Lillqvist  <tlillqvist@novell.com>

	* glib/gwin32.c: Include also wchar.h for wcslen on
	Cygwin.
	(g_win32_error_message): Fix cast. (#163133, Roger Leigh)

	* glib/gfileutils.c: Include <io.h> on Windows for
	prototypes. (#163390, Kazuki Iwamoto)

2005-01-07  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* NEWS: Typo fixes.

	* configure.in: Bump version

	* === Released 2.6.1 ===

2005-01-07  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* configure.in: 
	* Makefile.am: Generate and distribute gmodule-export-2.0.pc,
	which is currently just a copy of gmodule-2.0.pc, but makes
	it explicit that it adds --export-dynamic.
	
	* gmodule-export-2.0.pc.in: Copy of gmodule-2.0.pc.in.

2005-01-06  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* glib/Makefile.am
	* gobject/Makefile.am: glib.def and gobject.def are generated, not
	in $(srcdir). (#163143, J. Ali Harlow)

	* configure.in
	* glib/Makefile.am
	* gobject/Makefile.am: Win32 cross-compilation fixes. (#163144,
	J. Ali Harlow)

2005-01-05  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/gutils.h: Simplify the inlining magic to make it
	work at Oh zero.  (#162990, Kalpesh Shah) 

2005-01-04  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* glib/guniprop.c (get_locale_type): Use g_win32_getlocale()
	instead of setlocale() on Windows. setlocale() returns strings
	like "Turkish_Turkey".

2005-01-04  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	Fix the inlining magic.  (#157536, Jens Hatlak, and
	#149907, Morten Welinder)
	
	* configure.in: Define G_CAN_INLINE in glibconfig.h

	* glib/gutils.h: Streamline the inlining magic a bit,
	don't use extern when implementing the non-inlined 
	version.

2005-01-03  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/gutils.c (g_find_program_in_path): Don't return
	directories.  (#160738, Tommi Komulainen)

	* glib/gfileutils.c (g_file_get_contents): Clarify the 
	documentation.  (#162251, Mariano Suárez-Alvarez)

2005-01-02  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/gutils.c (g_setenv, g_unsetenv): Clarify the 
	docs.  (#162747, Crispin Flowerday)

2005-01-01  J. Ali Harlow  <ali@juiblex.co.uk>

	* configure.in: Don't use AC_TRY_RUN to test for long long format
	when using the MSVCRT.DLL runtime since we know the answer anyway
	and it causes some mild inconvience when cross compiling.

	* README.win32: Add a reference to the cross compiling section
	of the reference manual.

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

2005-01-01  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* glib/gutils.c: Make the g_getenv() ABI backward compatibility
	wrapper more robust.

2005-01-01  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* glib/glib.symbols
	* glib/gutils.h
	* glib/gutils.c: Make also g_getenv(), g_setenv(), g_unsetenv()
	and g_find_program_in_path() take and return UTF-8 strings on
	Win32. Implement DLL ABI backward compatility for them, too. Move
	all the DLL ABI stability wrappers to the end of the file. Use
	wide character API when available in inner_find_program_in_path().

	* glib/gfileutils.c: With the UTF-8ness of g_getenv() above, just
	use g_getenv() to get PATHEXT. (Yeah, it's probably overdoing it
	to consider somebody actually having anything else than ASCII
	in PATHEXT, but...)

2004-12-31  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* glib/gfileutils.c (g_file_test): Rewrite the Win32 version to
	use GetFileAttributes() instead of stat(). stat() is unreliable
	for corner cases like '\\server\share' or '.\'. Part of fixing
	#161797. When testing for executability, in addition to the fixed
	set of executable file name extensions also check the PATHEXT
	environment variable.

2004-12-30  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* glib/gutils.c (g_get_current_dir): In the Win32 version, use
	GetCurrentDirectory() directly for simpler buffer length
	management. I don't trust getcwd() getting it right all the time.

2004-12-30  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/gfileutils.c (g_file_test): Typo fix.

2004-12-30  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* glib/gutils.c (g_path_skip_root): Require UNC paths to start
	with exactly two slashes.
	(g_get_current_dir): Use wide character API when available.
	(g_path_get_dirname): Handle UNC paths better. Part of fix for
	#161797.

2004-12-27  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* configure.in: Add an OS_LINUX conditional.

	* glib/Makefile.am (TESTS): Only check the ABI on 
	linux, since the shell script is not portable, and libtool
	deficiencies may distort the ABI on other platforms.  (#161741)

2004-12-21  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/goption.c (print_entry): Don't show
	the special G_OPTION_REMAINING entry.  (#161934,
	Matthew F. Barnes)

2004-12-20  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* glib/gconvert.c (g_locale_to_utf8, g_filename_to_uri): Improve
	docs.

2004-12-20  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* tests/option-test.c: Add some tests for '--' 
	stripping.

	* glib/goption.c (g_option_context_parse): Don't
	strip '--' if it would be needed by a second option
	parser.  (#161701)

	* glib/gunicollate.c (g_utf8_collate): Make docs 
	more accurate.  (#161683, Marcin Krzyzanowski)

2004-12-19  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/goption.c (g_option_context_parse): Call
	post-parse hooks also if argv is NULL.  (#161668,
	Marcin Krzyzanowski)
