Tim Janik 92dfa96114 make struct _GPatternSpec and GMatchType private. (g_pattern_equal): new
Fri Oct 12 18:24:02 2001  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

        * glib/gpattern.[hc]: make struct _GPatternSpec and GMatchType
        private.
        (g_pattern_equal): new function to return equality of two patterns
        (required because GPatternSpec is private now).
        (g_pattern_spec_new): fix bug wrg wildcard counting which produced
        incorrect pattern specs (discovered by Matthias Clasen).
        optimized code so we just keep one compiled pattern string now.
        correctly canonicalize patterns. reduce string walks, optimize
        decision about MATCH_ALL vs. MATCH_ALL_TAIL.
        (g_pattern_match_string): call just g_pattern_match() with NULL
        reversed string.
        (g_pattern_match): allow NULL reversed strings now, reverse_dup
        strings on demand.

        * tests/patterntest.c (test_compilation): added an extended testcase
        for pattern matching from Matthias Clasen <matthiasc@poet.de>.

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
