41 Bug #85930, Laurent Vivier:
43 * gmodule-ar.c: Implementation of native module management for AIX.
45 * gmodule.c: Support gmodule-ar.c
47 2003-01-01 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
49 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path): Use g_ascii_strcasecmp().
51 Tue Dec 3 20:56:19 2002 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
53 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): Properly refcount the
54 main module if it is already open. (#98648)
56 Sat Mar 2 14:46:17 2002 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
58 * gmodule-beos.c (_g_module_build_path) * gmodule-dyld.c (_g_module_build_path)
59 gmodule-dl.c (_g_module_build_path): Use G_MODULE_SUFFIX rather than
60 a hardcoded ".so". (#72803)
62 Sun Feb 17 18:15:22 2002 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
64 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): Fix typo when checking
65 if file + module_suffix exists. (Miroslaw Dobrzanski-Neumann,
68 2001-11-24 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
70 * Makefile.am: Remove rule for testgmodule.exp, too.
72 2001-11-22 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
74 * gmodule-win32.c: Current w32api headers do include tlhelp32.h,
75 so no need to have an extract from it here.
77 Mon Nov 19 16:12:12 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
79 * Makefile.am makefile.msc.in makefile.mingw.in: Remove
80 testgmodule and associated plugin files; we don't need _both_ this
81 and ../tests/module-test.c
83 2001-11-16 Michael Meeks <michael@ximian.com>
85 * gmodule.c (parse_libtool_archive): fix leak.
87 2001-10-30 Dan Winship <danw@ximian.com>
89 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add gmodule-dyld.c
91 2001-10-23 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
93 * Makefile.am: (Win32): If we have built the MSVC import library,
94 install it. Install the gcc import library. Also support
97 2001-10-09 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
99 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path): More Unix compatibility:
100 Add "lib" prefix in case the module name doesn't already have it,
101 except if it ends with ".dll" (in which case it probably already
102 is the name of an existing DLL). This is needed for instance for
103 the gdk-pixbuf loaders, which are called "lib*.dll", but
104 gdk-pixbuf-io calls g_module_build_path without the "lib" prefix.
106 2001-10-03 jacob berkman <jacob@ximian.com>
108 * libgplugin_a.c: (gplugin_a_module_func):
109 * gmodule.h: s/retrive/retrieve/
111 2001-09-25 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
113 * makefile.mingw.in: Fix missing end @ in @LT_CURRENT@.
115 * makefile.msc.in: Use same DLL and import library names as
118 2001-09-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
120 * gmodule.rc.in: Correct InternalName and OriginalFilename to
121 match what we actually produce.
123 2001-09-18 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
125 * Makefile.am: On Win32, pass a dummy -rpath flag to libtool when
126 building libgplugin_[ab].la, otherwise libtool doesn't create a
127 DLL, but a static archive.
129 2001-07-20 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>
131 * makefile.msc.in : reflect glib move
133 2001-05-21 Mark Murnane <Mark.Murnane@ireland.sun.com>
135 * gmodule.c (g_str_check_suffix): Modified type of string_len
136 and suffix_len to be gsize. Properly accommodates return from
139 2001-05-29 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
141 * gmodule.c (g_module_set_error_unduped): Do not g_strdup, as
142 promised in the function name.
144 Tue May 29 12:57:51 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
146 * gmodule.c (g_module_symbol): erk, strconcat needs NULL as last arg.
147 make sure we pass module name with suffix into backend open.
149 Mon May 28 20:19:25 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
151 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): as a last resort, if we can't access()
152 the module, leave it up to the platform backends to find it.
153 (fixes implicit search patch loading i broke with my last
154 commit, spotted by Padraig O'Briain).
156 Thu May 24 03:43:12 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
158 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): reordered code so we have a single
159 module loading point (for reliable error messages). do access()
160 tests to figure plausible file names.
161 make error messages more verbose so users canfigure what's going on.
163 2001-04-20 Dan Winship <danw@ximian.com>
165 * gmodule-dyld.c: gmodule implementation for Darwin/Mac OS X
168 * gmoduleconf.h.in: Add gmodule-dyld support
170 * testgmodule.c (main): Fix spelling
172 2001-03-13 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
174 From Edward M. Lee <tailbert@yahoo.com>:
176 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path): use (cygwin friendly) dir
179 2001-03-12 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
181 * Makefile.am (libgplugin_a_la_LIBADD, libgplugin_b_la_LIBADD):
182 Link with the libgmodule la only on Win32.
184 2001-03-10 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
186 * Makefile.am: Use the _LIBADD dependency on libglib only on the
187 Win32 platform (including Cygwin).
189 2001-03-07 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
191 * Makefile.am, makefile.mingw.in, makefile.msc.in: Set
192 G_LOG_DOMAIN to \"GModule\" instead of g_log_domain_gmodule.
194 * gmodule.def, gmodule.h, gmodule.c: Removed g_log_domain_gmodule.
196 2001-02-21 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
198 * gmodule.h: Use G_BEGIN_DECLS and G_END_DECLS. Define
199 G_MODULE_EXPORT correctly on Cygwin, too.
201 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_open): Convert path to Windows format
204 * Makefile.am (libglib): Use libglib-1.3.la from
205 top_builddir. Invoke libtool with -no-undefined for Win32 and
208 2001-02-17 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>
210 Applied patch from Soeren Sandmann:
212 * gmodule.c (g_module_error): G_CONST_RETURN
213 (g_module_name): G_CONST_RETURN
215 Sat Feb 17 07:27:15 2001 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
217 * gmodule.c: work around platforms that have broken RTLD_GLOBAL.
219 2001-01-27 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
221 * gmodule.c: (Win32) Need <io.h> for open() and close().
223 2000-12-22 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
225 * gmodule.c: Make g_module_open more tolerant wrt to the module
226 name. First it tries to open the module as named, if that fails,
227 it checks, whether it is a libtool archive and parses it, if that
228 fails it appends the systems shared library suffix
229 (i.e. ".so") (if not already found) and tries again and if that
230 fails it tries to append the ".la" libtool suffix (if not already
231 found) and parses it.
233 * gmodule.c: Lock recursive mutex during most module functions for
236 * gmodule-dl.c: Return an error from _g_module_symbol only, if
237 dlerror says so. All other functions return an error as well, if
238 dlerror returns NULL.
240 * testgmodule.c: Thanks to the above change the #ifdefs have
243 2000-10-15 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
245 * Makefile.am (BUILT_EXTRA_DIST): New variable.
246 (dist-hook): Handle $(BUILT_EXTRA_DIST).
248 2000-09-28 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
250 * gmodule.h: Moved declaration of g_log_domain_gmodule up before
251 the inclusion of glib.h to make it compile on non-gcc compilers.
253 2000-07-22 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
255 * makefile.mingw.in: Remove leftover gmodule-win32res.o stuff. The
256 build-dll script automagically handles resources.
258 2000-07-20 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
260 * libgplugin_a.c, testgmodule.c: Use g_path_get_basename instead
261 of the deprecated g_basename.
263 2000-07-19 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
265 * gmodule.h: include glib.h before doing extern "C". Makes some C++
266 compiler happy. Reported by Denis Vakatov
267 <vakatov@peony.nlm.nih.gov>.
269 2000-07-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
271 * gmodule-win32.c: Don't #include <tlhelp32.h> when compiling with
272 gcc, as it isn't provided. Declaration of a needed struct (from
273 www.microsoft.com) inserted instead.
275 2000-05-13 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
277 * makefile.mingw.in: New file, with gmodule stuff
278 moved from ../makefile.mingw.in.
280 * Makefile.am: Add to EXTRA_DIST, and add rule to make makefile.mingw.
282 2000-05-02 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
284 * gmodule-win32.c: No need to include <psapi.h>
286 2000-03-23 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
288 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_symbol): When looking for symbols in
289 the "main" module we must search both the main program and all
290 currently loaded DLLs. Not only the main program, or even just the
291 DLLs loaded as gmodules. Libglade requires this.
293 Thus we need to get a list of all modules in the current
294 process. There are two alternative APIs to do this: PSAPI and
295 Toolhelp. The former is only available on NT (including Win2k),
296 the latter on Win9x and Win2k. Check which one works, and use
299 First check for the symbol in the main program, and if not found
300 there, in all the modules.
302 Code for using PSAPI and Toolhelp was borrowed from the Dr. Mingw
303 tool written by José Fonseca <em96115@fe.up.pt>. Thanks.
305 2000-03-04 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
307 * gmodule-win32.c: Call g_win32_error_message() to get the error
312 * gmodule.c: Remove LibMain functions that were needed by LCC,
313 which is not a supported compiler.
315 * testgmodule.c (main): Test for G_MODULE_IMPL ==
316 G_MODULE_IMPL_WIN32, not G_OS_WIN32.
318 * gmoduleconf.h.win32: Remove LCC stuff from here, too.
320 Wed Mar 1 05:34:47 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
322 * gmodule-beos.c (_g_module_symbol): do not return NULL symbols.
324 * gmodule-os2.c: removed NetBSD specific defines.
325 (_g_module_self): set an error message for unsupported behaviour.
327 * gmodule-beos.c: many coding style fixups.
331 (_g_module_symbol): bunch of memory leaks plugged.
333 * gmodule-dl.c: make sure the error message returned from dlerror()
334 is always != NULL, by using a wrapper function fetch_dlerror(). based
335 on a patch to fix _g_module_symbol() for NetBSD from Scott Presnell
338 * gmodule-dld.c: minor indentation.
340 * gmodule-win32.c: minor cleanups.
342 * merges from glib-1-2.
344 Sat Feb 19 19:43:29 2000 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
346 * testgmodule.c (main): added test to check that not yet bound symbols
347 in shared libraries of the main module are retrievable, from David Gero.
349 2000-01-13 Martin Baulig <martin@home-of-linux.org>
351 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): Check whether `check_init' is not NULL
352 before we attempt to call it.
354 Sun Oct 3 19:30:52 PDT 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
357 * testgmodule.c: use G_OS stuff
359 Sat Jul 24 20:47:18 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
361 * merged changes from GLib-1-2 branch.
363 1999-05-06 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
365 * gmodule.c: Remove LibMain.
367 Sat May 1 10:58:57 PDT 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
369 * Makefile.am: use -avoid-version and -module for test plugins
371 Mon Apr 19 08:43:59 1999 ape@lrdpf.spacetec.no (Asbjorn Pettersen)
373 * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add gmodule-os2.c
375 Wed Apr 7 20:12:58 1999 ape@lrdpf.spacetec.no (Asbjorn Pettersen)
377 * gmodule-os2.c: OS/2 specific file for gmodule.
378 * gmodule.c (_g_module_open): Add gmodule-os2.c if G_MODULE_IMPL_OS2.
379 * gmoduleconf.h.in: Add G_MODULE_IMPL_OS2.
381 Fri Apr 23 09:03:48 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
383 * gmodule.c (g_module_symbol): removed inline variable assignment.
384 s/CHECK_ERROR/SUPPORT_OR_RETURN/ to make the code more self descriptive.
386 Wed Feb 10 12:06:30 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
388 * gmodule.c (CHECK_ERROR): be more descriptive on unsupported systems.
390 Wed Feb 10 07:56:33 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
392 * gmodule.c (g_module_error): fixed errernerous code wrt to thread
393 specific error string allocation handling.
395 Thu Jan 21 12:40:11 EST 1999 Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
397 * gmodule-dl.c (_g_module_build_path):
398 Add braces to eliminate an ambiguous else warning.
400 1999-01-16 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
402 * gmodule-dl.c gmodule-dld.c: In
403 _g_module_build_path, don't add the "lib" prefix and
404 ".so" or ".sl" suffix if already there.
406 * gmodule-win32.c: Likewise for the ".dll" suffix.
408 1998-12-10 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
410 * gmodule.c: Made it MT safe, the g_module_error() is now thread
413 Fri Nov 20 14:43:44 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
415 * gmodule.c (_g_module_build_path): added empty default imlementation
416 so gmodule.so compiles on systems that are not yet supported, fix from
417 Erik Bagfors <bagfors@hpc2n.umu.se>.
419 1998-11-13 Nuno Ferreira <nmrf@rnl.ist.utl.pt>
421 * Makefile.am (INCLUDES): The previous commit message is wrong
422 about the -I$(top_srcdir) being redundant. I put it back.
424 Wed Nov 11 23:23:22 EST 1998 Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
426 * Makefile.am : INCLUDES is the right way to add to CFLAGS, not
427 DEFS. Also there are bugs with '+=' in makefiles.
428 Got rid of DEFS line by moving G_LOG_DOMAIN setting into INCLUDES.
429 Removed redundant -I from INCLUDES.
431 Tue Oct 27 04:00:11 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
433 * testgmodule.c (main): changed the #ifdef WIN32 test to NATIVE_WIN32,
434 this needs to be more constistent throughout the code, do we go for
435 NATIVE_WIN32 or WIN32?
437 * gmodule.c (LibMain): special cased the #ifdef __LCC__ case for
438 NATIVE_WIN32, since lcc maybe used on other platforms as well.
439 * libgplugin_a.c (LibMain):
440 * libgplugin_b.c (LibMain):
441 likewise. not sure i like this special requirement for lcc in here.
443 * gmodule-dl.c (_g_module_build_path):
444 feature empty "" directories and prepend the module name with "lib".
446 * gmodule-dld.c (_g_module_build_path):
447 * gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path):
448 feature empty "" directories.
450 * we need some more magic in the _g_module_build_path variants
451 so we don't append/prepend lib and .so, .sl or .dll for those names
452 that already contain it.
454 * applied patch from Tor Lillqvist for g_module_build_path() and
457 1998-10-20: Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
459 * gmodule/gmodule-win32.c:
462 * gmodule/gmodule.c gmodule/gmodule.h:
463 Added the funcion g_module_build_path that builds the path to
464 a module file, decorating the name according to the system's
465 conventions. Added the Windows implementation.
467 * gmodule/libgplugin_a.c gmodule/libgplugin_b.c:
468 Added LibMain for LCC-Win32.
470 * gmodule/testgmodule.c:
471 Handle Windows dll names.
473 1998-10-25 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
475 * gmodule.h: Remove `#pragma }'.
476 * gmoduleconf.h.in: Likewise.
478 Wed Oct 21 19:58:27 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
480 * gmodule.c (g_module_symbol): fixed a string pointer bug that could
481 cause garbage error messages from g_module_symbol() for systems that
484 Mon Sep 21 01:54:48 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
487 * gmodule.c: renamed old _de_init functionality to _unload.
488 modules are now expected to export:
489 G_MODULE_EXPORT const gchar* g_module_check_init (GModule *module);
491 G_MODULE_EXPORT void g_module_unload (GModule *module);
492 returning a string other than NULL from g_module_check_init() will
493 prevent the module from being loaded. a call to g_module_make_resident()
494 from g_module_unload() will prevent the module from being unloaded and
495 still make it resident.
497 Thu Sep 17 06:34:22 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
500 * gmodule.c: implemented g_module_make_resident() which can be
501 used to make modules resident.
502 fixed a buglet about the optional "g_module_de_init" function in
503 modules, which could get invoked twice on very obscure occasions.
505 Tue Sep 15 14:57:30 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
507 * Makefile.am: Update to libtool-1.2b,
508 change library versioning scheme to drop LT_RELEASE
509 from the -l line, while keeping it in the soname.
511 Thu Aug 20 07:08:16 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
513 * gmodule.c: provide no operation implementation for the underlying
514 _g_module_* functions, so we at least compile on systems that have
515 neither of G_MODULE_IMPL_DL or G_MODULE_IMPL_DLD.
517 Mon Aug 17 03:41:52 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
520 * gmodule.c (g_module_open): changed the return type for the
521 GModuleCheckInit function to be a string, describing the error
523 (g_module_symbol): show the failing symbol on error messages.
525 Fri Aug 14 02:24:39 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
527 * Makefile.am: feature the G_LOG_DOMAIN macro to set the log domain
528 to "GModule" upon compilation. we currently have to add this definition
529 to the DEFS variable.
530 * testgmodule.c: we need an ugly #undef G_LOG_DOMAIN at the start
531 of this file currently, since automake doesn't support per target
534 Mon Aug 10 03:35:57 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
536 * gmodule.c: minor changes to internal interface.
538 * gmodule-dld.c: put some comments into the files, and provided
539 better error checking for shl_findsym(). whish i had a system to
542 Mon Aug 10 02:18:31 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
544 * Makefile.am (lib_LTLIBRARIES): for now, skip the dependency on
545 -lglib for libgmodule-1.1.la, libgplugin_a.la and libgplugin_b.la
546 since this clashes with inter-library-dependencies for not installed
547 libraries. glib-config takes care of this for the usuall case, but
548 there needs to be a better way...
550 Sun Aug 9 15:57:38 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
552 * testgmodule.c: test program for GModule.
554 * libgplugin_b.c: test plugins for testgmodule.c.
557 * gmodule.c: GModule library implementation, which is basically
558 a wrapper about system specifc dynamic loading facilities.
560 Sun Aug 9 10:31:05 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
562 * ChangeLog start for gmodule.
