21 - Call g_queue_insert_sorted() instead of duplicating the code.
22 - Call g_queue_sort() instead of duplicating the code.
23 - Invert sort function results to make sure the same sort function
24 gives the same results across glist, gslist, gqueue and
27 * tests/asyncqueue-test.c:
28 - Updated the sort function to reflect the example in the
29 documentation for gasyncqueue.c.

43 2005-12-07 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
45 * glib-gettextize.in: Look up prefix at run-time on Win32,

49 2005-12-06 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
51 * glib/gmem.h: Exempt GTK+ from the mem chunk deprecation, since
52 we need GTK+ 2.8 to compile against GLib 2.10.
54 2005-12-05 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
56 * tests/run-collate-test.sh: set LC_COLLATE, not LANG, to be sure
57 to override any user settings.
59 2005-12-05 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
61 * configure.in: Revert an accidential commit
63 2005-12-05 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
65 * glib/gutf8.c: Documentation updates. (#323291, Morten Welinder)
67 * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT):
68 * tests/gobject/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Set
69 MALLOC_CHECK_ and MALLOC_PERTURB_

83 2005-12-05 Martyn Russell <martyn@imendio.com>
85 * docs/reference/glib/glib-sections.txt:
86 * glib/gasyncqueue.[ch]:
87 - Added support for sorting async queues by with _push_sorted(),
88 _push_sorted_unlocked(), _sort() and _sort_unlocked() (#323047).
91 * tests/asyncqueue-test.c:
92 - Added test case for gasyncqueue.c
94 Mon Dec 5 15:53:20 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
96 * glib/gslice.c: implement chain walking for arbitrary ->next pointer
97 offsets in g_slice_free_chain_with_offset() based on a patch by behdad
98 in bug 323178. moved time consuming logic from g_slice_free() out of
99 the inner loop, so g_slice_free_chain_with_offset() provides a real
100 performance benefit over g_slice_free1() now.
102 * glib/gslice.h: renamed g_slice_free_chain() to
103 g_slice_free_chain_with_offset(). implemented g_slice_free_chain() as
104 a type-safe macro as suggested in bug 323178.
105 simplified the macro implementation of g_slice_free() and implemented
106 it in a type safe manner for all compliers as suggested by Morten
107 Welinder <mortenw@gnome.org>.
112 * glib/glib.symbols: s/g_slice_free_chain/g_slice_free_chain_with_offset/

118 * tests/libmoduletestplugin_a.c: Fix compiler warnings.
120 * glib/gatomic.c: In the ia64 implementation, use
121 __sync builtin without _si or _di suffix. (#321229,
122 Stanislav Brabec, patch by Andreas Schwab)
124 2005-12-04 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
126 * glib/gslice.h: Remove comma at the end of enum.
128 2005-12-04 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
130 Handle multiple user names with the same UID better.
131 (#319535, Laszlo Peter)
133 * glib/gutils.c (g_get_any_init_do): When determining user
134 data, first look up $LOGNAME. If the UID doesn't match
135 getuid(), fall back to the current behaviour of looking
136 up the user data based on getuid().
138 2005-12-04 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
140 * glib/gmacros.h (G_GNUC_WARN_UNUSED_RESULT): Add a macro
141 to make gcc warn if a function result is ignored. (#145466,
142 Arjan van de Ven, Alex Larsson)
144 * glib/gmem.h: Add the new attribute to g_realloc and
147 2005-12-03 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>

157 fix the permissions of the created temp file. (#321318,
158 Alexis S. L. Carvalho)
160 2005-12-02 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
162 * README.in: Add a note about Solaris threads.
165 * configure.in: Remove support for Solaris threads.
166 (#136971, Sebastian Wilhelmi, patch by Andrew Paprocki)
168 2005-12-02 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
170 * configure.in: Define G_GUINT64_CONSTANT in analogy to
171 G_GINT64_CONSTANT. (#322568, Andrew Paprocki)
173 2005-12-02 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
175 * glib/gslice.c: Win32 portability fixes and C99ism removal,
176 pointed out by Kazuki Iwamoto. (#323052)
178 2005-12-02 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
180 * glib/gatomic.c (g_atomic_int_add): Add a missing volatile for
181 the IA64 implementation.
183 Fri Dec 2 16:18:09 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
185 * glib/gslice.c: some naming and type size fixups.
187 Fri Dec 2 13:08:58 2005 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
189 * glib/gslice.h (g_slice_free): reworked GCC-specific type-safe macro
190 variant into something less verbose, but digestible for gcc-3.4.
192 Fri Dec 2 10:55:07 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
194 * tests/slice-test.c: extended to perform the benchmarking on the old
195 memchunk code if 'O' is selected.
197 * tests/memchunks.c: new file which contains the old GLib mem chunks
198 implementation with prefix old_mem_chunk_.
200 * tests/Makefile.am: added memchunks.c
202 Fri Dec 2 00:16:59 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
204 * glib/gslice.c: improved gettimeofday() timer resolution by maintaining
205 acceptable load distribution of the syscall.
206 (allocator_get_magazine_threshold): reduce minimum/single-thread magazine
207 sizes to approximately page_size/2.5 to avoid excessive startup allocations.
209 2005-12-01 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
211 * tests/gobject/ifacecheck.c (test_iface_base_init): Don't
212 double-free base interface members.
214 * tests/Makefile.am: Remove duplicate variable.
216 Thu Dec 1 17:32:46 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
218 * glib/gslice.[hc]: new slice allocator implementation.
220 * tests/slice-test.c: added random slice allocation test.
222 * glib/gthread.[hc]: removed newly added private thread mem API.
224 * glib/gthreadinit.h:
227 * glib/gmem.c: divided glib threading initialisation into three phases,
228 initialisation where private keys and messaging are not available (only
229 needed by gmem.c), initialisation without messaging but private keys
230 available (gslice.c, gmessage.c), and full fledged initialisers that
231 server the rest of glib. initialisation functions got renamed to reflect
232 the limitations of their corresponding phases.
234 * glib/gmem.c: removed memchunk code, defer allocations to
237 * glib/gmem.[hc]: removed g_slice_* skeletons.
239 * glib/glib.symbols: added g_slice_* symbols.
241 * configure.in: check for availability of posix_memalign(3), memalign(3)
244 * glib/Makefile.am: added gslice.[hc].
246 2005-12-01 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
248 * glib/gstdio.c (g_stat): In the Win32 implementation, strip
249 trailing slash(es) for non-root folders. stat() fails if non-root
250 folders are specified with trailing slashes. It's too much hassle
251 to demand that callers strip such slashes themselves, especially
252 as it is easy to get it wrong and strip the slash of a root
254 (g_rename): On NT-based Windows, use MoveFileEx() with
255 MOVEFILE_REPLACE_EXISTING to better match Unix behaviour.
257 2005-11-28 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
259 Fix G_STMT_START / G_STMT_END on Solaris. (#321972,
262 * configure.in: Check whether do { } while (0) works.
264 * glib/gmacros.h: Use do { } while (0) for G_STMT_START /
265 G_STMT_END if it works.
267 2005-11-28 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>

273 (g_hash_table_foreach_remove_or_steal): Silence compiler
276 2005-11-27 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
278 * glib/gunicollate.c (g_utf8_collate_key_for_filename):
279 Don't read beyond len. (#322520, Christian Persch)
281 Wed Nov 23 17:34:01 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
283 * glib/gdataset.c: access datalist flags via atomic pointer access
284 functions, instead of acquiring the dataset lock. this is faster and
285 also matches the atomic pointer readouts in gdatalistprivate.h and
286 direct pointer modifications required by gobject.c.
288 Wed Nov 23 13:35:31 2005 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
290 * glib/gdataset.c: streamlined initialization code somewhat,
291 removed GData node cache.
293 2005-11-22 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
295 * glib/ghash.c (g_hash_table_ref):
296 (g_hash_table_unref): Mark these as new API.
298 Avoid double locking in g_intern_string (#322133,
301 * glib/gdataset.c (g_quark_from_string_internal): New
302 internal function which factors out common parts of
303 g_quark_from[_static]_string.
304 (g_quark_from_string, g_quark_from_static_string):
305 Use g_quark_from_string_internal.
306 (g_intern_string, g_intern_static_string): Use
307 g_quark_from_string_internal, and only take the
309 (g_quark_new): Don't store the strings shifted by -1
310 in the g_quarks array.
311 (g_quark_to_string): Adapt to the previous change.
313 Tue Nov 22 14:04:26 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
317 g_hash_table_new_full(): create hash tables with a ref count of 1.
318 g_hash_table_ref(): atomically ref_count+=1
319 g_hash_table_unref(): atomically ref_count-=1, destroys hash table
320 when refcount reaches 0.
321 g_hash_table_destroy(): just destroy keys and values, unref by 1.
322 g_hash_table_insert():
323 g_hash_table_replace(): assert ref_count>0.
326 * glib/gatomic.c: added 'volatile' qualifier to all atomic pointer and
329 2005-11-20 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
331 * glib/guniprop.c (g_unichar_get_mirror_char): Remove unused
332 variables. (#321984, Andrew Paprocki)
334 2005-11-18 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>

351 * README.in: Updates.
355 * glib/gdate.c (g_date_set_time_t):
356 (g_date_set_time_val): Add functions to set a date from
357 a time_t and from a GTimeVal.
358 (g_date_set_time): Deprecate. (#314067, Roger Leigh)

362 and g_utf8_offset_to_pointer.
364 * glib/gutf8.c (g_utf8_pointer_to_offset)
365 (g_utf8_offset_to_pointer): Handle negative offsets, and use
366 "stutter stepping" for going backwards. (#320638, Larry
371 * glib/gthread.c: const correctness fixes, found
372 by Arjan van de Ven and gcc.
374 2005-11-16 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
376 * docs/reference/glib/tmpl/unicode.sgml: Correct typo on mentioning

379 2005-11-09 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
381 * glib/guniprop.c: Use bit hacks instead when checking a general
382 category value against multiple values.
384 * glib/gutf8.c: Change ISO10646 to Unicode in docs.
386 2005-11-10 Simos Xenitellis <simos@gnome.org>

390 2005-11-05 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
392 * glib/giowin32.c (g_io_win32_set_flags): Don't call g_warning().
393 (#320688) Instead set error and return failure.
395 2005-11-07 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
397 * glib/gmain.c (g_main_dispatch): Don't call cb_funcs->unref
398 while holding the context lock. (#320886, Andy Wingo)
400 2005-11-07 Billy Biggs <vektor@dumbterm.net>
402 * tests/refcount/Makefile.am: Add a missing reference to libglib
403 in the LDADD for this test.
405 2005-11-07 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
407 * glib/gmem.c (g_allocator_new): We need to set n_preallocs to a
408 nonzero value, otherwise GTK+ 2.8 breaks when compiled against
409 GLib 2.9. (#320755, Luca Ferretti)
411 2005-11-04 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
413 * glib/Makefile.am: Apply a patch from Behdad Esfahbod to
414 use a faster lookup table for g_unichar_get_mirror_char().
415 * glib/gmirroringtable.h: The new table.
416 * glib/gunichartables.h: Remove bidi_mirroring_table.
417 * glib/gen-unicode-tables.pl: Don't generate the mirroring

420 which generated gmirroringtable.h.
422 * glib/glist.c: Avoid some code duplication.
424 * glib/gscanner.h: Include gdataset.h. (#320322)

427 * glib/gmessages.c: (_g_debug_init): handle G_DEBUG=fatal_criticals,
428 to help find critical warnings in applications. (#320017,
431 2005-11-02 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
433 * glib/glib.symbols: Remove large amount of trailing whitespace
434 from one line. Remove #ifdef G_UNDEFINED from around
435 g_hash_table_new and g_hash_table_new_full symbols, what was the
436 purpose of that? Add the g_slice functions.
438 Tue Nov 1 16:24:20 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
440 * glib/gmem.[hc]: prepared deprecation of GMemChunk and GAllocator.
441 added g_slice_*() API to allocate and cache small bits of memory.
442 an actuall allocator implementation for g_slice_*() is still pending.
444 * glib/gthread.[hc]: changes from a patch by Matthias Clasen.
445 changed GRealThread list to use in-structure *next; fields instead
446 of GSList, in order for thread iteration to not depenend on g_slice_*()
448 _g_thread_mem_private_get():
449 _g_thread_mem_private_set(): added accessors for private memory,
450 needed because the ordinary GPrivate implementation relies on GArray
451 and GSList and therefore indirectly on working g_slice_*() allocations.
454 g_thread_foreach(): new public API function to loop over all existing threads.
468 removed GAllocator and free list usages and accompanying locks.
469 use g_slice_*() API to allocate and cache small bits of memory.
471 * glib/ghook.h: removed GMemChunk field from public API.
474 * glib/glist.h: deprecate allocator API, provide _free1() for consistency.
476 * glib/gnode.h: deprecate allocator API.
478 * glib/gmain.c: reordered GPollRec fields so g_slice_free_chain() can
479 be used for poll rec lists.
481 * glib/grel.c: removed mem chunk usage, and allocated tuples via g_slice_*().
482 g_relation_destroy(): free all tuples from the all_tuples hash table,
483 this effectively maintains the life time track keeping of tuples.
484 g_relation_delete_tuple(): free tuples which are removed from the
485 all_tuples hash table. this fixes a temporary leak that was present
486 in the memchunk code until the destruction of the relation.
488 2005-10-29 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
490 * tests/convert-test.c: Add some tests for conversions between
491 UTF-8, UCS-4 and UTF-16.
493 * glib/gutf8.c (g_utf8_to_ucs4, g_utf8_to_utf16): Fix handling
494 of len == -1, noticed by Morten Welinder.
496 2005-10-27 Erdal Ronahi <erdal.ronahi@gmail.com>
498 * configure.in: Added ku (Kurdish) to ALL_LINGUAS
500 2005-10-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
502 * glib/gutf8.c (g_ucs4_to_utf8): Don't set items_read twice
503 in the error case, and add some documentation. (#319806, Morten
506 2005-10-19 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
508 * configure.in: Use AC_CHECK_FUNCS for _NSGetEnviron, to get the
509 config.h symbol automatically. Fixes bug #313731.
511 2005-10-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
513 * glib/gwin32.c (g_win32_get_package_installation_directory):
514 Return a g_strdup()ed copy of the value stored in the hash table,
515 so that it can be g_free()d without leaving a dangling pointer in
516 the hash table. (#319232)
518 2005-10-06 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
520 * glib/gunicollate.c (g_utf8_collate_key_for_filename): Handle
521 all-zero sequences correctly. (#317930, Sebastien Bacher)
523 2005-10-05 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
525 * glib/gmarkup.c (g_markup_escape_text): Doc addition
527 * Makefile.am: Add Collation tests.
529 * tests/collate/*: Inputs and expected outputs for collation tests.
531 * tests/run-collate-tests.sh: Script to run collation tests.
533 * tests/unicode-collate.c (main): Rework slightly to make
534 it usable in unit tests. Also test g_utf8_collate_key_for_filename().
536 2005-10-01 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
538 * docs/reference/glib/tmpl/unicode.sgml:
539 * glib/gen-unicode-tables.pl:
541 * glib/gunichartables.h:
543 * tests/casefold.txt:
544 * tests/casemap.txt: Updated to Unicode 4.1. There are five new
545 GUnicodeBreakType types. That may break some applications, like
548 2005-09-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
550 * glib/gstrfuncs.c (g_ascii_strtoull): Add details to the
551 docs. (#314393, Matthew F. Barnes)
554 * glib/gprintf.h: Remove g_snprintf() and g_vsnprintf(), since
555 they are already declared in glib.h. This doesn't break documented
556 use of gprintf.h, but should probably be pointed out in the
557 release notes for 2.10. (#314232, Behdad Esfahbod)
559 Tue Sep 20 13:16:04 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
561 * glib/gpattern.c (g_pattern_ph_match): applied significant recursion
562 complexity optimization, based on a patch from Matthias Clasen.
564 * tests/patterntest.c: more tests, mostly from matthias.
566 2005-09-20 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
568 * glib/gqueue.c (g_queue_insert_sorted): Correct the docs.
569 (#316703, Mark Drago)
571 Mon Sep 19 17:23:23 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
573 * glib/gpattern.c: applied a patch from matthias which checks on the
574 upper bound of GPatternSpec length to optimize matches.
577 * tests/patterntest.c: added more match cases.
579 2005-09-16 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
581 * glib/gstrfuncs.c (g_ascii_strcasecmp, g_ascii_strncasecmp): Add
582 warning to doc comment that these functions should not be used on
583 encodings like CP932.
585 2005-09-14 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
587 * tests/keyfile-test.c: Add a test for grup names of length 1.
589 * glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_line_is_group): Accept group names
590 of length 1. (#316309)

599 tests to the system thread library $(G_THREAD_LIBS). Fixes #313744
602 2005-09-11 Kjartan Maraas <kmaraas@gnome.org>
604 * glib/gmain.c: (g_child_watch_prepare), (g_child_watch_check),
605 (child_watch_helper_thread): Remove some dead code. Closes
608 2005-09-07 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
610 * glib/Makefile.am: Create also a console version of the
611 gspawn-win32-helper program, gspawn-win32-helper-console.exe.
612 It's otherwise identical to gspawn-win32-helper.exe, except marked
613 as a console application (linked without the -mwindows option).
615 * glib/gspawn-win32.c (do_spawn_directly, do_spawn_with_pipes):
616 Drop the dont_wait parameter. Its truth value correlated 100% with
617 the NULLness of the exit_status parameter anyway, so it's enough
618 to check whether exit_status is NULL. Invert the sense of the
619 dont_return_handle parameter and rename it to do_return_handle, to
620 make the code easier to read by avoiding double negations.
622 (g_spawn_sync_utf8, g_spawn_async_with_pipes_utf8): Modify calls
623 to do_spawn_with_pipes() accordingly.
625 (do_spawn_with_pipes): If we have a console, use the console
626 version of the helper program, otherwise use the GUI one. This
627 avoids extra console windows opening up in some situations. (In
628 case a console application uses the GUI gspawn-win32-helper.exe to
629 spawn another console application we would get a separate console
630 for the spawned console application).
632 * glib-zip.in: Distribute also gspawn-win32-helper-console.exe.
634 2005-09-05 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
636 * glib/gmappedfile.c (g_mapped_file_new): Report an error
637 if the file is too large. (#315275, Kjartan Maraas)
639 * glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_load_from_fd): The return value
640 of read() is signed. (#315273, Kjartan Maraas)
642 2005-08-31 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
644 * glib/gutils.h: Wrapping atexit() is a bad idea on Windows, where
645 the EXE and each DLL have their own atexit function chains.
647 #define g_atexit as atexit instead. This means it has a
648 better chance of doing what the caller wants. For instance,
649 gtkhtml calls g_atexit() registering a function in gtkhtml
650 itself. This caused a crash when g_atexit() was implemented as a
651 function in the GLib DLL. The gtkhtml DLL was already unloaded by
652 the time the GLib DLL got unloaded.
654 * glib/gutils.c: #undef the #define mentioned above, to also get a
655 real g_atexit() into the DLL for backward compatibility. Document
656 the Windows behaviour of g_atexit(), and document the varying ways
657 atexit() can behave in the context of dynamically loaded modules
660 2005-08-31 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
664 * glib/gdataset.c: Add string interning functions.
666 2005-08-28 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
668 * glib/giochannel.c: Unify some near-duplicate strings. (#314654,
671 2005-08-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
673 * configure.in: Bump version to 2.9.0
675 2005-08-25 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
677 Make also the g_spawn*() functions take parameters in the GLib
678 file name encoding, i.e. UTF-8, on Windows. Has no impact on Unix
679 API or ABI. Like the other GLib API that was earlier changed to
680 use UTF-8 on Windows, the names of the functions that take UTF-8
681 have _utf8 suffixes added by using preprocessor macros in the
682 header file. The old names are kept for functions with the old
683 behaviour, taking parameters in the system codepage, for DLL ABI
686 * glib/gspawn.h: On Win32 add the suffix _utf8 to the names of the
687 g_spawn*() functions.
689 * glib/gspawn-win32.c: Use wide-char API on NT-based
690 Windows. Convert parameters from UTF-8 to wide chars (NT) or
691 system codepage (Win9x) and call the C library _wspawn*() or
692 spawn*() functions respectvely. Add DLL ABI stability versions
693 that take parameters in the system codepage.
695 * glib/gspawn-win32-helper.c: On NT-based Windows use the
696 wide-char versions of argv and envp, and use wide-char API to
697 change directory and spawn the program to run. Remove the verbose
698 debugging output, it was too complex to modify for the wide-char
699 features. (Just add temporary debugging printouts if needed, no
700 need to have them permanently in the source.)
702 * glib/gspawn.c: Corresponding documentation updates.
704 * glib/glib.symbols: Corresponding changes: Mark the ABI stability
705 symbols as PRIVATE, add the new _utf8-suffixed ones.
707 2005-08-24 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
709 * glib/gtypes.h (G_MININT64): Cast the constant to gint64; it is
710 guint64 otherwise and that can produce warnings about comparison
711 between signed and unsigned.
713 2005-08-23 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
715 * glib/gutils.c: Fix the crt_externs.h include.
717 2005-08-23 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
719 * NEWS: Fix spelling of my first name.
721 2005-08-23 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
725 * === Released 2.8.1 ===
729 2005-08-20 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>
731 * glib/makefile.msc.in : link with ws2_32.lib
733 2005-08-18 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
735 * configure.in: Check for <sys/wait.h>
737 * glib/gbacktrace.c: Include <sys/wait.h> on if HAVE_SYS_WAIT_H.

742 Optimise single-character insertions.
747 * tests/string-test.c:
748 Add tests for new optimisation, and fix a leak.
750 2005-08-17 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
752 * configure.in: Check for crt_externs.h and _NSGetEnviron.
754 * glib/gutils.c: On Darwin, include crt-externs.h and
755 define environ using _NSGetEnviron(). (#313731)
757 2005-08-16 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
759 * glib/gutils.c (g_get_any_init): Move the body of the big if...
760 (g_get_any_init_do): ... to this new function.
761 (g_get_any_init): Declare as inline.
762 (g_get_any_init_locked): New inline function, does the locking.
763 Make use of these two throughout the code.
765 2005-08-15 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
767 * glib/gbacktrace.c (g_on_error_stack_trace): Wait for
768 the child process and then simply return. This makes
769 The "S" option work as documented in g_on_error_query().
770 (#313125, Matthew F. Barnes)
772 * glib/gunicode.h: Update the link to Unicode category
773 values. (#313369, Behnam Esfahbod)
775 * glib/gqueue.c (g_queue_find_custom): Clarify docs
776 a little. (#311727, Tristan van Berkom)
778 * glib/abicheck.sh, gobject/abicheck.sh: Make the
779 check work on ia64 too, where some symbols ended up
780 in yet another section.
