Overview of Changes from GLib 2.25.12 to GLib 2.25.13
|
||
=====================================================
|
||
|
||
+-------------------------------------------------------------------+
|
||
| WARNING: There have been no breaks in API or ABI. Weird, eh? |
|
||
+-------------------------------------------------------------------+
|
||
|
||
The primary purpose of this release is to fix a serious problem with
|
||
glib 2.25.12: glibconfig.h (as generated on a Fedora amd64 system) was
|
||
being distributed in the tarball. It was being used to build some parts
|
||
of glib on other systems (eg: 32bit ones). This was causing some very
|
||
serious problems.
|
||
|
||
There have been many other improvements, however:
|
||
|
||
Build and testing:
|
||
- vastly improved test coverage
|
||
- old tests moved to the gtester framework
|
||
- gtester Makefile modified so that the tests only run once
|
||
- cleanup of how we handle includes while building glib
|
||
|
||
GVariant:
|
||
- add a g_return_if_fail (utf8) to g_variant_new_string()
|
||
|
||
GDBus:
|
||
- perform extra sanity checks when serialising messages
|
||
- add API to query and set the byteorder of a GDBusMessage
|
||
- improve debug output, add some extra options
|
||
- if exiting due to the bus disconnecting us, print an error message
|
||
explaining why
|
||
- sort property names correctly
|
||
- don't bother sending RemoveMatch when we will close the connection
|
||
anyway
|
||
- use effective uid/gid for credential passing
|
||
|
||
GSettings:
|
||
- add G_SETTINGS_BIND_INVERT_BOOLEAN for inverting boolean bindings
|
||
without mapping functions
|
||
- mark all strings in the schema compiler for translation
|
||
|
||
Binding:
|
||
- improve closure support for bindings
|
||
- copy GSettings INVERT_BOOLEAN flag
|
||
|
||
Other:
|
||
- fix another complicated GCancellable deadlock possibility
|
||
|
||
Bugs closed:
|
||
599590 glib build doesn't look for correct pkg-config
|
||
619026 avoid warning in gutils.h when using gcc with -Wconversion
|
||
624739 Please fix POTFILES.in
|
||
625472 Valgrind claims uninitialized bytes used
|
||
625500 g_date_set_time_val documentation doesn't mention local time
|
||
625628 GDBusProxy: wrong property name sorting
|
||
625753 Incorrect flags used in g_dbus_connection_call_sync()
|
||
625827 Expand documentation about error quark naming
|
||
625988 builddir != srcdir issues
|
||
626107 glibconfig.h is being disted

Overview of Changes from GLib 2.25.11 to GLib 2.25.12
|
||
=====================================================
|
||
|
||
+-------------------------------------------------------------------+
|
||
| WARNING: There have been many API changes in GDBus -- sending |
|
||
| messages, subscribing to signals, closing connections and |
|
||
| registering subtrees are affected. The ABI for GSettingsBackend |
|
||
| has also been changed. For both reasons, a new dconf release is |
|
||
| required (and will be along soon). |
|
||
+-------------------------------------------------------------------+
|
||
|
||
Build:
|
||
- cleanup automake setup
|
||
- rename configure.in to configure.ac
|
||
- various docs fixups
|
||
- move glibconfig.h to glib/
|
||
- disable dtrace support on Mac OS (which has incompatible 'dtrace')
|
||
|
||
GSettings:
|
||
- add support for vendor override files (to change the default values
|
||
in a schema)
|
||
- change GSettingsBackend vtable
|
||
- add g_settings_reset()
|
||
- support binding to G_TYPE_STRV properties
|
||
|
||
GDBus:
|
||
- many bug fixes, including a serialisation fix
|
||
- stop handling incoming connections as soon as stop() is called
|
||
- proper support for file descriptor passing
|
||
- new flags parameter for sending messages
|
||
- new flags parameter for subscribing to signals
|
||
- always reset the message serial when sending a message unless
|
||
G_DBUS_SEND_MESSAGE_FLAGS_PRESERVE_SERIAL is given
|
||
- constness fixes for introspection structures
|
||
- clean ups to subtree registration API
|
||
|
||
Other:
|
||
- fix divide by zero bug in g_malloc_n functions
|
||
- GIO: don't blindly assume that SOCK_CLOEXEC is supported
|
||
- make GObject property notify freezes threadsafe
|
||
- GIO: clean up credentials passing
|
||
- GApplication: make default-quit not apply if register=FALSE
|
||
- GIO: add annotations for gobject-introspection
|
||
|
||
Bugs closed:
|
||
166020 use GAtomic for refcounting

Overview of Changes from GLib 2.25.10 to GLib 2.25.11
|
||
=====================================================
|
||
|
||
+-------------------------------------------------------------------+
|
||
| WARNING: There have been minor API changes in GDBus and GVariant. |
|
||
| These API changes will not affect many users, but they do require |
|
||
| a new version of GTK+ to be installed. |
|
||
+-------------------------------------------------------------------+
|
||
|
||
Build:
|
||
- add a --disable-Bsymbolic configure flag to disable linking with
|
||
-Bsymbolic-functions
|
||
- this release sees the complete removal of the old 'g*alias' hacks
|
||
- honour the NOCONFIGURE environment variable from autogen.sh
|
||
- use proper feature test macros for isnan
|
||
- use pkg-config to check for zlib
|
||
- add ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS to Makefile.am
|
||
|
||
GDBus:
|
||
- hide Class and instance structures for all GDBus types except
|
||
GDBusProxy. This breaks API by preventing subclassing, but probably
|
||
nobody was doing that.
|
||
- add new GDBusConnection call to support flushing all pending
|
||
outgoing messages
|
||
- change the register_object API to add a reference to the
|
||
GDBusInterfaceInfo object so the caller need not keep it alive
|
||
themselves
|
||
- don't rewrite the serial number when sending messages that already
|
||
have a serial number
|
||
- better error checking for DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS environment
|
||
variable
|
||
- switch to g_parse_debug_string for G_DBUS_DEBUG and add a lot of new
|
||
flags
|
||
- add support for temporarily freezing a freshly created
|
||
GDBusConnection. Do this until after the ::new-connection signal
|
||
has finished running on GDBus services.
|
||
- never require non-closed connections (the user is incapable of doing
|
||
this due to the obvious race)
|
||
- remove weird/misleading redundant check on NameOwnerChanged signal
|
||
- emit GDBusProxy::g-properties-changed on NameOwnerChanged
|
||
|
||
GVariant:
|
||
- the 'g_variant_{new,get}_byte_array' APIs have been removed
|
||
- g_variant_{new,get,dup}_bytestring has been added, with different
|
||
arguments and different behaviour
|
||
- g_variant_{new,get,dup}_bytestring_array has been added, doing
|
||
essentially the same thing as the 'strv' functions, but with byte
|
||
strings instead of utf8 strings
|
||
- G_VARIANT_TYPE_BYTESTRING ('ay'), BYTESTRING_ARRAY ('aay') and
|
||
STRING_ARRAY ('as') constants have been added
|
||
- the undocumented behaviour that g_variant_get_strv() deserialised
|
||
arrays of object paths or signature strings has been dropped
|
||
- additional varargs support for converting bytestrings or bytestring
|
||
arrays with ^ay ^aay ^&ay and ^a&ay
|
||
- improved gobject-introspection annotation
|
||
- fix a problem with GBuffer calling g_slice_free for the wrong type
|
||
- fix leaks in the type inferencing code of the parser
|
||
|
||
GSettings:
|
||
- improved documentation
|
||
- updated schema XML DTD, now xincluded into the docs
|
||
- added support for schemas that extend other schemas (using the
|
||
'extends=' attribute). Values of keys in the base schema can be
|
||
overridden using <override>.
|
||
- added theoretical support for lists (using the 'list-of=' attribute)
|
||
- lots of new tests
|
||
- add support for flags (implemented similarly to enums)
|
||
- add support for generating .enums.xml files to gsettings.m4:
|
||
gsettings_ENUM_NAMESPACE = org.example.myapp
|
||
gsettings_ENUM_FILES = ../path/to/*.h
|
||
will generate org.example.myapp.enums.xml with mappings for all
|
||
enums and flags in the specified .h files.
|
||
- warn with g_message() if the 'memory' backend is used by default
|
||
(ie: because no other GSettings backends are installed)
|
||
- fix get_property() for GSettings::schema
|
||
- command line tool: fix a bug that prevented non-basic values from
|
||
being set due to a premature free
|
||
- command line tool: bash completion support
|
||
- chain up in _finalize
|
||
- add a new g_settings_get_mapped API to read settings that require
|
||
post-processing
|
||
- retry with the translated or schema default value if the
|
||
GSettingsBindGetMapping function fails
|
||
- schema compiler: never fail due to empty schema directories (but
|
||
warn)
|
||
- peek rather than ref/unref the GEnumClass in the mapping function
|
||
- schema compiler: compile *.enums.xml before *.gschemas.xml to ensure
|
||
that we have all the enums that the schemas may reference
|
||
- schema compiler: improve accuracy of line numbers in error reports
|
||
- fix crashes in the keyfile backend caused by invalid group names in
|
||
the keyfile
|
||
|
||
Other:
|
||
- always intern GBinding prop names
|
||
- base64: remove asserts preventing conversion of empty strings
|
||
- document NULL special-cases for GValueArray
|
||
- GNode docs improvements
|
||
- improve detection of 'system internal' mounts
|
||
- fix leaks in the inotify GFileMonitor implementation
|
||
- annotate all custom GIO GSources to improve debugging (e.g. using
|
||
SystemTap)
|
||
|
||
Tests:
|
||
- Turn on glibc malloc checking features for make check
|
||
- improvements for GSettings tests, plus new tests
|
||
- improved tests for GKeyfile
|
||
- new tests for GDir, GSList, GSList, GAppLaunchContext,
|
||
CharsetConverter, GIcon, ...
|
||
- move some tests to GTester (tree tests, uri tests)
|
||
- generally, really an awful lot of new tests
|
||
- don't try to allocate 2gigs of memory anymore for the array test
|
||
|
||
552363 g_value_array_{insert,prepend,append}'s special cases for NULL
|
||
561248 Improve return value description from g_node_prev/next_sibling()
|
||
570036 Add ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS to Makefile.am
|
||
576833 g_sprintf add a reference to g_strdup_printf

|
||
582227 reference: add other URI functions to 'URI Functions' section
|
||
599223 should provide g_spawn_* variants that take a GAppLaunchContext
|
||
610784 array test failing
|
||
613057 Leak in inotify GFileMonitor implementation
|
||
620536 Annotate all custom GIO GSource using g_source_set_name
|
||
620913 More control with G_DBUS_DEBUG
|
||
622124 implement flags
|
||
622127 GSettings extended key validation
|
||
622128 retry with default value for failed mapping
|
||
622294 More annotations for GVariant

|
||
623407 g_keyfile_settings_backend_new crashes with the key "/"

Overview of Changes from GLib 2.25.8 to GLib 2.25.9
|
||
===================================================
|
||
|
||
+----------------------------------------------------------------+
|
||
| WARNING: There have been API changes in GDBus, GSettings and |
|
||
| GApplication. Users of these APIs will need to be adapted. In |
|
||
| particular, a new release of GTK+ is required to go along with |
|
||
| this one. |
|
||
+----------------------------------------------------------------+
|
||
|
||
* GDBus
|
||
- Use Gio's default async implementation
|
||
- Fix proxy construction for objects with no properties
|
||
- Fix error handling in synchronous initialization
|
||
- Do not dispatch calls to unregistered objects
|
||
- Add _with_closures alternative functions
|
||
- Allow constructing GDBusProxy with well-known names
|
||
- Remove GType parameters from GDBusProxy constructors
|
||
- Nuke g_bus_watch_proxy API
|
||
- Add --xml to gdbus-tool to print raw introspected XML
|
||
|
||
* GSettings
|
||
- schema file format change: store (default, options) in gvdb
|
||
- Add g_settings_sync()
|
||
- Add support for enums and ranges
|
||
- 'context' support has been replaced by direct use of
|
||
GSettingsBackend
|
||
|
||
* GApplication
|
||
- Switch to using variants for timestamps
|
||
- Use GInitable
|
||
|
||
* GObject
|
||
- Introduce g_object_notify_by_pspec
|
||
- Add GBinding
|
||
- The GVariant gtype G_TYPE_VARIANT was changed from boxed
|
||
to fundamental. We believe there were no existing users
|
||
of the boxed type, so this should not cause any applications
|
||
to break.
|
||
|
||
* Test framework
|
||
- Add package and version to the test report XML
|
||
- Use optparse to parse gtester-report commandline
|
||
- Add subunit support to gtester-report

|
||
621319 more leaked GVariants in GSettings
|
||
621168 GKeyFile memory leak on Windows platform
|
||

611869 add subunit out feature to gtester-report
|
||
621119 GDBusProxy and objects with no properties
|
||
620990 Use Gio's default async implementation again
|
||
620952 g_application_register_with_data is an ugly API
|
||
621252 GSettings leaks context
|
||
618715 fork() in GSettings test cases is problematic 618715
|
||
621905 Assume a ref when doing async work
|
||
621266 GSettings "context" clarification
|
||

Overview of Changes from GLib 2.18.1 to GLib 2.19.0
|
||
===================================================
|
||
|
||
* Rewrite GHashTable to use open addressing with quadratic probing instead
|
||
of chaining. This has the potential to reduce memory fragmentation
|
||
significantly, while being slightly faster due to better locality and
|
||
no need to call alloc/free functions for nodes. Benchmarks suggest it
|
||
also uses less memory overall.
|
||
|
||
* Make g_poll available as public api
|
||
|
||
* New macros g_assert_error and g_assert_no_error to assert
|
||
that a GError is set or unset
|
||
|
||
* g_cancellable_make_pollfd: New method to make a GPollFD for a cancellable
|
||
|
||
* g_app_info_can_delete, g_app_info_delete, g_app_info_reset_type_associations:
|
||
New functions to clean up app infos and content types
|
||
|
||
* When launching applications, always pass fuse file:// uris when possible,
|
||
and let gio convert such uris back to gio uris.
|
||
|
||
* Bugs fixed:
|

Overview of Changes from GLib 2.14.x to GLib 2.15.0
|
||
===================================================
|
||
|
||
Major new features:
|
||
|
||
* GIO: a VFS API, designed to replace GnomeVFS. The GIO implementation
|
||
in GLib has support for local filesystems. The new, separate gvfs
|
||
module contains various backend implementations (cifs, ftp, sftp,
|
||
http, ...)
|
||
|
||
* GChecksum: provides various hash algorithms, such as MD5, SHA-1
|
||
and SHA-256
|
||
|
||
* GTest: a test framework
|
||
|
||
Smaller additions:
|
||
|
||
* GHash:
|
||
- GHash has iterators, as an alternative to g_hash_table_foreach
|
||
|
||
* GMarkup:
|
||
- g_markup_parse_context_get_element_stack: New function to
|
||
get the stack of open elements
|
||
- G_MARKUP_PREFIX_ERROR_POSITION: New flag to improve error
|
||
reporting
|
||
- g_markup_collect_attributes: Convenience function for handling
|
||
attributes
|
||
|
||
* GKeyFile:
|
||
- Functions that take a GError now return a boolean to indicate
|
||
success, instead of void
|
||
- Various performance improvements
|
||
|
||
* GAsyncQueue:
|
||
- g_async_queue_new_full: new function that allows to specify
|
||
a free function for leftover elements
|
||
|
||
* GError:
|
||
- g_prefix_error and g_propagate_prefixed_error: New functions
|
||
to ease error propagation
|
||
|
||
* Internationalization:
|
||
- C_: A new 2-argument variant of the Q_() macro
|
||
- Use native character set conversion API on Windows
|
||
|
||
* GLib builds with automake 1.10
|
||
|
||

(g_unichar_isalpha, g_unichar_isdigit,...) have
|
||
been optimized
|
||
[Behdad]
|
||
- g_utf8_pointer_to_offset, g_utf8_offset_to_pointer:
|
||
These functions handle negative offsets now, and
|
||
going backwards in g_utf8_offset_to_pointer uses
|
||
"stutter stepping".
|
||
[Larry Ewing, Matthias Clasen]
|
||
|
||
* Memory management:
|
||
- Mem chunks are no longer used internally in GLib and
|
||
GObject. GMemChunk will be deprecated in GLib 2.10
|
||
- All APIs based on GAllocator (g_list_push/pop_allocator,
|
||
and similar push/pop_allocator functions for other
|
||
data structures) have been deprecated, since they
|
||
never worked as intended.
|
||
- The g_slice_* functions have been added as a
|
||
new API for fast allocation of small memory blocks.
|
||
The implementation in GLib 2.9.0 is just a simple
|
||
wrapper around malloc. GLib 2.10 will have an
|
||
efficient and scalable implementation.
|
||
[Tim Janik, Matthias]
|
||
|
||
* Pattern matching:
|
||
- g_pattern_match has been optimized to avoid
|
||
unnecessary recursion.
|
||
[Tim, Matthias]
|
||
|
||
* g_intern_string, g_intern_static_string:
|
||
- New functions to intern strings. These are now used
|
||
by GObject to avoid duplicating static strings
|
||
[Matthias]
|
||
|
||
* g_thread_foreach:
|
||
- New function to iterate over all GThreads
|
||
[Tim, Matthias]
|
||
|
||
* g_date_set_time_t, g_date_set_time_val:
|
||
- New functions to set a GDate from a time_t or
|
||
GTimeVal value. g_date_set_time has been deprecated
|
||
in favor of these.
|
||
[Roger Leigh]
|
||
|
||
* g_snprintf and g_vsnprintf:
|
||
- These functions are no longer declared in gprintf.h,
|
||
since they are in glib.h
|
||
