Overview of Changes in GLib 1.1.5:
|
|
|
|
* Win32 portability
|
|
* GIOChannel structure to encapsulate the IPC mechanism
|
|
* Reimplemented endian stuff, using inline asm for x86
|
|
* New functions:
|
|
- g_strescape: escapes backslashes
|
|
- g_path_is_absolute and g_path_skip_root
|
|
- g_getenv: expands environment variables that contain references
|
|
to other environment variables
|
|
- g_scanner_sync_file_offset: rewind the filedescriptor to the current
|
|
buffer position and blow the file read ahead buffer
|
|
- g_array_remove_index: remove an entry, preserving the order
|
|
- g_array_remove_index_fast: remove an entry, order might be distorted
|
|
- g_ptr_array_remove: remove an entry, preserving the order
|
|
- g_ptr_array_remove_fast: remove an entry, order might be distorted
|
|
- g_byte_array_remove_index: wrapper for g_array_remove_index
|
|
- g_byte_array_remove_index_fast: wrapper for g_array_remove_index_fast
|
|
- g_strncasecmp: modeled closely after g_strcasecmp
|
|
- g_list_sort, g_slist_sort: to merge sort GLists and GSLists
|
|
* New macros:
|
|
- G_DIR_SEPARATOR, G_DIR_SEPARATOR_S: platform-dependant file name
|
|
syntax elements
|
|
- G_SEARCHPATH_SEPARATOR, G_SEARCHPATH_SEPARATOR_S: platform-dependant
|
|
search path syntax conventions
|
|
- G_STRUCT_OFFSET, G_STRUCT_MEMBER_P, G_STRUCT_MEMBER: for handling
|
|
structure fields through their offsets
|
|
* Removed G_ENUM, G_FLAGS, G_NV, and G_SV macros
|
|
* Bug fixes
|
|
|
|
Overview of Changes in GLib 1.1.4:
|
|
|
|
* Added generic callback maintenance functions (ghook)
|
|
* New endian defines (G_*_ENDIAN)
|
|
* New string join/split/free routines
|
|
* Fixes
|
|
|
|
Overview of Changes in GLib 1.1.3:
|
|
|
|
* New GModule mechanism (implemented in an extra library) which wraps dynamic
|
|
object code loading facilities in a portable manner.
|
|
* glib-config features extra "glib" (old behaviour remains) and "gmodule"
|
|
(add libgmodule.so to the --libs output) arguments now. this can also
|
|
be specified as fourth argument to the AM_PATH_GLIB() macro.
|
|
* Overhaul of the `inline' autoconfiguration stuff, so inlining should be
|
|
sufficiently supported on all systems that allow inlining now.
|
|
* New g_log() mechanism for logging of messages at different log levels,
|
|
associated with certain log domains (define -DG_LOG_DOMAIN for your library).
|
|
* New inline functions for bit masks tests.
|
|
* GNode macros (and functions) now return the newly allocated node.
|
|
* New macro G_VA_COPY() to work around va_list copying oddities on some
|
|
platforms. the non-static g_vsprintf() function vanished in favour of
|
|
a publically exported g_strdup_vprintf().
|
|
People that used the former g_vsprintf() would definitely want to read the
|
|
associated ChangeLog entries (grep for printf).
|
|
* New utility functions:
|
|
g_strndup(), g_on_error_query(), g_on_error_stack_trace(), g_strdup_printf(),
|
|
g_strdup_vprintf(), g_printf_string_upper_bound(), g_spaced_primes_closest(),
|
|
g_strnfill(), g_memdup().
|
|
* Overhaul of the array implementations, this contains some source incompatible
|
|
changes. Again, the ChangeLog is much more informative (grep for garray.c).
|
|
* The internals of the g_dataset mechanism are now exported through the
|
|
new g_datalist_* API (this is also the underlying implementation for the
|
|
keyed data of GtkObjects).
|
|
* New function g_atexit(), use of the ATEXIT() macro is discouraged.
|
|
* Better configure checks for ansi compliance.
|
|
* Libtool update to version 1.2b.
|
|
* Lotsa bug fixes and cleanups as always ;)
|
|
|
|
Overview of Changes in GLib 1.1.2:
|
|
|
|
* Fixed packaging mistake which occured in 1.1.1
|
|
* fix 64-bitness in g_prints in glibtest
|
|
|
|
What is new in GLib 1.1.1:
|
|
|
|
* An n-way tree implementation is provided now, based on the GNode structure.
|
|
* Bugfix for pointer arrays.
|
|
|
|
What is new in GLib 1.1.0:
|
|
|
|
* GLib is distributed seperatedly from Gtk+ now and uses a sophisticated
|
|
shared library versioning scheme to deal with interface and binary
|
|
incompatibilities.
|
|
* There is a glib-config helper script installed now.
|
|
* Fixups all over the place.
|
|
* gboolean is now a gint, not a gchar anymore.
|
|
* API extensions for GList and GSList.
|
|
* New g_str*() functions for simple string handling.
|
|
* GScanner extensions for scope, warning and error handling.
|
|
* Minor performance improvements for GMemChunks.
|
|
* Implementations of GQuarks and datasets (similar to GtkObjects data
|
|
mechansim, but works for generic memory locations).
|
|
* More convenience macros for GNU C function arguments.
|
|
* Const correction all over the place, including a new pointer type
|
|
gconstpointer.
|
|
* Generic functions for TAB completions.
|
|
* GRelations for n-way mapping of certain data.
