175 Tue Dec 20 18:14:14 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
177 * glib/gslice.[hc]: added mem_error() and mem_assert() to test and
178 handle errors without depending on gmessage.c which might not be
179 setup when the error occours.
180 removed G_SLICE_CONFIG_ALWAYS_FREE config option, fixed the code so
181 always freeing can be achieved by adjusting the working set time to
182 0 with G_SLICE_CONFIG_WORKING_SET_MSECS.
183 added G_SLICE_CONFIG_COLOR_INCREMENT to test different color increments
184 (mainly 0 and 1). reduced the minimum block size to 128 bytes, to
185 minimize wastage if small amounts of differently sized structrues are
186 allocated, this does come at a performance cost of roughly 5% though.
187 fixed up block alignment calculation, so it works for varying
188 block sizes. only use strerror() not g_strerror() since the latter
189 depends on working GQuark and GSlice.
190 mem_error(): implemented in terms of fprintf and vfprintf.
192 * tests/slice-color.c: new program to test cache colorization effects.
194 * tests/slice-test.c: trade G_SLICE_CONFIG_ALWAYS_FREE for 0 duration
195 G_SLICE_CONFIG_WORKING_SET_MSECS.

204 * glib/gatomic.c: Fix memory barrier position in g_atomic_int_get
205 and g_atomic_pointer_get. Add g_atomic_int_set and
206 g_atomic_pointer_set implementations for the !DEFINE_WITH_MUTEXES &&
207 G_ATOMIC_OP_MEMORY_BARRIER_NEEDED case, as well as defining them
208 as functions (additionally to the macros in the header) for the
209 !G_ATOMIC_OP_MEMORY_BARRIER_NEEDED case.
211 2005-12-16 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
213 * glib/gmem.c (g_allocator_new): Don't return a pointer to
214 a const struct, since apps expect to be able to modify it.
215 (#324179, J. Ali Harlow)
217 Tue Dec 13 10:13:32 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
219 * glib/gatomic.h: added g_atomic_pointer_set() and g_atomic_int_set()
220 for systems where the initialization of atomic variables requires a
221 write memory barrier.
223 2005-12-09 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>

242 * glib/gasyncqueue.c:
243 - Call g_queue_insert_sorted() instead of duplicating the code.
244 - Call g_queue_sort() instead of duplicating the code.
245 - Invert sort function results to make sure the same sort function
246 gives the same results across glist, gslist, gqueue and
249 * tests/asyncqueue-test.c:
250 - Updated the sort function to reflect the example in the
251 documentation for gasyncqueue.c.

256 * docs/reference/glib/tmpl/linked_lists_double.sgml:
257 * docs/reference/glib/tmpl/linked_lists_single.sgml:
260 - Added g_list_insert_sorted_with_data () and
261 g_slist_insert_sorted_with_data ().
262 - Removed the extra check in g_list_sort() and g_slist_sort() for
263 GCompareDataFunc vs. GCompareFunc.
265 2005-12-07 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
267 * glib-gettextize.in: Look up prefix at run-time on Win32,
268 assuming the standard directory structure with glib-gettextize in
271 2005-12-06 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
273 * glib/gmem.h: Exempt GTK+ from the mem chunk deprecation, since
274 we need GTK+ 2.8 to compile against GLib 2.10.
276 2005-12-05 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
278 * tests/run-collate-test.sh: set LC_COLLATE, not LANG, to be sure
279 to override any user settings.

305 2005-12-05 Martyn Russell <martyn@imendio.com>
307 * docs/reference/glib/glib-sections.txt:
308 * glib/gasyncqueue.[ch]:
309 - Added support for sorting async queues by with _push_sorted(),
310 _push_sorted_unlocked(), _sort() and _sort_unlocked() (#323047).
313 * tests/asyncqueue-test.c:
314 - Added test case for gasyncqueue.c
316 Mon Dec 5 15:53:20 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
318 * glib/gslice.c: implement chain walking for arbitrary ->next pointer
319 offsets in g_slice_free_chain_with_offset() based on a patch by behdad
320 in bug 323178. moved time consuming logic from g_slice_free() out of
321 the inner loop, so g_slice_free_chain_with_offset() provides a real
322 performance benefit over g_slice_free1() now.
324 * glib/gslice.h: renamed g_slice_free_chain() to
325 g_slice_free_chain_with_offset(). implemented g_slice_free_chain() as
326 a type-safe macro as suggested in bug 323178.
327 simplified the macro implementation of g_slice_free() and implemented
328 it in a type safe manner for all compliers as suggested by Morten
329 Welinder <mortenw@gnome.org>.
334 * glib/glib.symbols: s/g_slice_free_chain/g_slice_free_chain_with_offset/

348 * glib/gslice.h: Remove comma at the end of enum.
350 2005-12-04 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
352 Handle multiple user names with the same UID better.
353 (#319535, Laszlo Peter)
355 * glib/gutils.c (g_get_any_init_do): When determining user
356 data, first look up $LOGNAME. If the UID doesn't match
357 getuid(), fall back to the current behaviour of looking
358 up the user data based on getuid().
360 2005-12-04 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
362 * glib/gmacros.h (G_GNUC_WARN_UNUSED_RESULT): Add a macro
363 to make gcc warn if a function result is ignored. (#145466,
364 Arjan van de Ven, Alex Larsson)
366 * glib/gmem.h: Add the new attribute to g_realloc and

412 variant into something less verbose, but digestible for gcc-3.4.
414 Fri Dec 2 10:55:07 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
416 * tests/slice-test.c: extended to perform the benchmarking on the old
417 memchunk code if 'O' is selected.
419 * tests/memchunks.c: new file which contains the old GLib mem chunks
420 implementation with prefix old_mem_chunk_.
422 * tests/Makefile.am: added memchunks.c
424 Fri Dec 2 00:16:59 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
426 * glib/gslice.c: improved gettimeofday() timer resolution by maintaining
427 acceptable load distribution of the syscall.
428 (allocator_get_magazine_threshold): reduce minimum/single-thread magazine
429 sizes to approximately page_size/2.5 to avoid excessive startup allocations.

440 * glib/gslice.[hc]: new slice allocator implementation.
442 * tests/slice-test.c: added random slice allocation test.
444 * glib/gthread.[hc]: removed newly added private thread mem API.
446 * glib/gthreadinit.h:
449 * glib/gmem.c: divided glib threading initialisation into three phases,
450 initialisation where private keys and messaging are not available (only
451 needed by gmem.c), initialisation without messaging but private keys
452 available (gslice.c, gmessage.c), and full fledged initialisers that
453 server the rest of glib. initialisation functions got renamed to reflect
454 the limitations of their corresponding phases.
456 * glib/gmem.c: removed memchunk code, defer allocations to
459 * glib/gmem.[hc]: removed g_slice_* skeletons.
461 * glib/glib.symbols: added g_slice_* symbols.

466 * glib/Makefile.am: added gslice.[hc].
468 2005-12-01 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
470 * glib/gstdio.c (g_stat): In the Win32 implementation, strip
471 trailing slash(es) for non-root folders. stat() fails if non-root
472 folders are specified with trailing slashes. It's too much hassle
473 to demand that callers strip such slashes themselves, especially
474 as it is easy to get it wrong and strip the slash of a root
476 (g_rename): On NT-based Windows, use MoveFileEx() with
477 MOVEFILE_REPLACE_EXISTING to better match Unix behaviour.

503 Wed Nov 23 17:34:01 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
505 * glib/gdataset.c: access datalist flags via atomic pointer access
506 functions, instead of acquiring the dataset lock. this is faster and
507 also matches the atomic pointer readouts in gdatalistprivate.h and
508 direct pointer modifications required by gobject.c.
510 Wed Nov 23 13:35:31 2005 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>

532 in the g_quarks array.

610 * configure.in: Added tt (Tatar) to ALL_LINGUAS.
612 2005-11-05 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
614 * glib/giowin32.c (g_io_win32_set_flags): Don't call g_warning().
615 (#320688) Instead set error and return failure.
617 2005-11-07 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
619 * glib/gmain.c (g_main_dispatch): Don't call cb_funcs->unref
620 while holding the context lock. (#320886, Andy Wingo)
622 2005-11-07 Billy Biggs <vektor@dumbterm.net>
624 * tests/refcount/Makefile.am: Add a missing reference to libglib
625 in the LDADD for this test.
627 2005-11-07 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
629 * glib/gmem.c (g_allocator_new): We need to set n_preallocs to a
630 nonzero value, otherwise GTK+ 2.8 breaks when compiled against
631 GLib 2.9. (#320755, Luca Ferretti)
633 2005-11-04 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
635 * glib/Makefile.am: Apply a patch from Behdad Esfahbod to
636 use a faster lookup table for g_unichar_get_mirror_char().
637 * glib/gmirroringtable.h: The new table.
638 * glib/gunichartables.h: Remove bidi_mirroring_table.
639 * glib/gen-unicode-tables.pl: Don't generate the mirroring
641 * glib/glib-mirroring-tab/*: Sources for the program
642 which generated gmirroringtable.h.
644 * glib/glist.c: Avoid some code duplication.
646 * glib/gscanner.h: Include gdataset.h. (#320322)
648 * glib/gdebug.h: add new GDebugFlag for fatal_criticals
649 * glib/gmessages.c: (_g_debug_init): handle G_DEBUG=fatal_criticals,
650 to help find critical warnings in applications. (#320017,
653 2005-11-02 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
655 * glib/glib.symbols: Remove large amount of trailing whitespace
656 from one line. Remove #ifdef G_UNDEFINED from around
657 g_hash_table_new and g_hash_table_new_full symbols, what was the
658 purpose of that? Add the g_slice functions.
660 Tue Nov 1 16:24:20 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
662 * glib/gmem.[hc]: prepared deprecation of GMemChunk and GAllocator.
663 added g_slice_*() API to allocate and cache small bits of memory.
664 an actuall allocator implementation for g_slice_*() is still pending.
666 * glib/gthread.[hc]: changes from a patch by Matthias Clasen.
667 changed GRealThread list to use in-structure *next; fields instead
668 of GSList, in order for thread iteration to not depenend on g_slice_*()
670 _g_thread_mem_private_get():
671 _g_thread_mem_private_set(): added accessors for private memory,
672 needed because the ordinary GPrivate implementation relies on GArray
673 and GSList and therefore indirectly on working g_slice_*() allocations.
676 g_thread_foreach(): new public API function to loop over all existing threads.
690 removed GAllocator and free list usages and accompanying locks.
691 use g_slice_*() API to allocate and cache small bits of memory.
693 * glib/ghook.h: removed GMemChunk field from public API.
696 * glib/glist.h: deprecate allocator API, provide _free1() for consistency.
698 * glib/gnode.h: deprecate allocator API.
700 * glib/gmain.c: reordered GPollRec fields so g_slice_free_chain() can
701 be used for poll rec lists.
703 * glib/grel.c: removed mem chunk usage, and allocated tuples via g_slice_*().
704 g_relation_destroy(): free all tuples from the all_tuples hash table,
705 this effectively maintains the life time track keeping of tuples.
706 g_relation_delete_tuple(): free tuples which are removed from the
707 all_tuples hash table. this fixes a temporary leak that was present
708 in the memchunk code until the destruction of the relation.
710 2005-10-29 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
712 * tests/convert-test.c: Add some tests for conversions between
713 UTF-8, UCS-4 and UTF-16.
715 * glib/gutf8.c (g_utf8_to_ucs4, g_utf8_to_utf16): Fix handling
716 of len == -1, noticed by Morten Welinder.
718 2005-10-27 Erdal Ronahi <erdal.ronahi@gmail.com>
720 * configure.in: Added ku (Kurdish) to ALL_LINGUAS
722 2005-10-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
724 * glib/gutf8.c (g_ucs4_to_utf8): Don't set items_read twice
725 in the error case, and add some documentation. (#319806, Morten
728 2005-10-19 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
730 * configure.in: Use AC_CHECK_FUNCS for _NSGetEnviron, to get the
731 config.h symbol automatically. Fixes bug #313731.
733 2005-10-19 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
735 * glib/gwin32.c (g_win32_get_package_installation_directory):
736 Return a g_strdup()ed copy of the value stored in the hash table,
737 so that it can be g_free()d without leaving a dangling pointer in
738 the hash table. (#319232)
740 2005-10-06 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
742 * glib/gunicollate.c (g_utf8_collate_key_for_filename): Handle
743 all-zero sequences correctly. (#317930, Sebastien Bacher)
745 2005-10-05 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
747 * glib/gmarkup.c (g_markup_escape_text): Doc addition
749 * Makefile.am: Add Collation tests.
751 * tests/collate/*: Inputs and expected outputs for collation tests.
753 * tests/run-collate-tests.sh: Script to run collation tests.
755 * tests/unicode-collate.c (main): Rework slightly to make
756 it usable in unit tests. Also test g_utf8_collate_key_for_filename().
758 2005-10-01 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@gnome.org>
760 * docs/reference/glib/tmpl/unicode.sgml:
761 * glib/gen-unicode-tables.pl:
763 * glib/gunichartables.h:
765 * tests/casefold.txt:
766 * tests/casemap.txt: Updated to Unicode 4.1. There are five new
767 GUnicodeBreakType types. That may break some applications, like
770 2005-09-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
772 * glib/gstrfuncs.c (g_ascii_strtoull): Add details to the
773 docs. (#314393, Matthew F. Barnes)
776 * glib/gprintf.h: Remove g_snprintf() and g_vsnprintf(), since
777 they are already declared in glib.h. This doesn't break documented
778 use of gprintf.h, but should probably be pointed out in the
779 release notes for 2.10. (#314232, Behdad Esfahbod)
781 Tue Sep 20 13:16:04 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
783 * glib/gpattern.c (g_pattern_ph_match): applied significant recursion
784 complexity optimization, based on a patch from Matthias Clasen.
786 * tests/patterntest.c: more tests, mostly from matthias.
788 2005-09-20 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
790 * glib/gqueue.c (g_queue_insert_sorted): Correct the docs.
791 (#316703, Mark Drago)
793 Mon Sep 19 17:23:23 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
795 * glib/gpattern.c: applied a patch from matthias which checks on the
796 upper bound of GPatternSpec length to optimize matches.
799 * tests/patterntest.c: added more match cases.
801 2005-09-16 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
803 * glib/gstrfuncs.c (g_ascii_strcasecmp, g_ascii_strncasecmp): Add
804 warning to doc comment that these functions should not be used on
805 encodings like CP932.
807 2005-09-14 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
809 * tests/keyfile-test.c: Add a test for grup names of length 1.
811 * glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_line_is_group): Accept group names
812 of length 1. (#316309)
814 2005-09-12 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
816 * glib/gmarkup.c (g_markup_escape_text): Clarify docs.
818 2005-09-11 Sebastian Wilhelmi <seppi@seppi.de>
820 * tests/refcount/Makefile.am (INCLUDES): Link the the refcount
821 tests to the system thread library $(G_THREAD_LIBS). Fixes #313744
824 2005-09-11 Kjartan Maraas <kmaraas@gnome.org>
826 * glib/gmain.c: (g_child_watch_prepare), (g_child_watch_check),
827 (child_watch_helper_thread): Remove some dead code. Closes
830 2005-09-07 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
832 * glib/Makefile.am: Create also a console version of the
833 gspawn-win32-helper program, gspawn-win32-helper-console.exe.
834 It's otherwise identical to gspawn-win32-helper.exe, except marked
835 as a console application (linked without the -mwindows option).
837 * glib/gspawn-win32.c (do_spawn_directly, do_spawn_with_pipes):
838 Drop the dont_wait parameter. Its truth value correlated 100% with
839 the NULLness of the exit_status parameter anyway, so it's enough
840 to check whether exit_status is NULL. Invert the sense of the
841 dont_return_handle parameter and rename it to do_return_handle, to
842 make the code easier to read by avoiding double negations.
844 (g_spawn_sync_utf8, g_spawn_async_with_pipes_utf8): Modify calls
845 to do_spawn_with_pipes() accordingly.
847 (do_spawn_with_pipes): If we have a console, use the console
848 version of the helper program, otherwise use the GUI one. This
849 avoids extra console windows opening up in some situations. (In
850 case a console application uses the GUI gspawn-win32-helper.exe to
851 spawn another console application we would get a separate console
852 for the spawned console application).
854 * glib-zip.in: Distribute also gspawn-win32-helper-console.exe.
856 2005-09-05 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
858 * glib/gmappedfile.c (g_mapped_file_new): Report an error
859 if the file is too large. (#315275, Kjartan Maraas)
861 * glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_load_from_fd): The return value
862 of read() is signed. (#315273, Kjartan Maraas)
864 2005-08-31 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
866 * glib/gutils.h: Wrapping atexit() is a bad idea on Windows, where
867 the EXE and each DLL have their own atexit function chains.
869 #define g_atexit as atexit instead. This means it has a
870 better chance of doing what the caller wants. For instance,
871 gtkhtml calls g_atexit() registering a function in gtkhtml
872 itself. This caused a crash when g_atexit() was implemented as a
873 function in the GLib DLL. The gtkhtml DLL was already unloaded by
874 the time the GLib DLL got unloaded.
876 * glib/gutils.c: #undef the #define mentioned above, to also get a
877 real g_atexit() into the DLL for backward compatibility. Document
878 the Windows behaviour of g_atexit(), and document the varying ways
879 atexit() can behave in the context of dynamically loaded modules
882 2005-08-31 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
886 * glib/gdataset.c: Add string interning functions.
888 2005-08-28 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
890 * glib/giochannel.c: Unify some near-duplicate strings. (#314654,
893 2005-08-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
895 * configure.in: Bump version to 2.9.0
897 2005-08-25 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
899 Make also the g_spawn*() functions take parameters in the GLib
900 file name encoding, i.e. UTF-8, on Windows. Has no impact on Unix
901 API or ABI. Like the other GLib API that was earlier changed to
902 use UTF-8 on Windows, the names of the functions that take UTF-8
903 have _utf8 suffixes added by using preprocessor macros in the
904 header file. The old names are kept for functions with the old
905 behaviour, taking parameters in the system codepage, for DLL ABI
908 * glib/gspawn.h: On Win32 add the suffix _utf8 to the names of the
909 g_spawn*() functions.
911 * glib/gspawn-win32.c: Use wide-char API on NT-based
912 Windows. Convert parameters from UTF-8 to wide chars (NT) or
913 system codepage (Win9x) and call the C library _wspawn*() or
914 spawn*() functions respectvely. Add DLL ABI stability versions
915 that take parameters in the system codepage.
917 * glib/gspawn-win32-helper.c: On NT-based Windows use the
918 wide-char versions of argv and envp, and use wide-char API to
919 change directory and spawn the program to run. Remove the verbose
920 debugging output, it was too complex to modify for the wide-char
921 features. (Just add temporary debugging printouts if needed, no
922 need to have them permanently in the source.)
924 * glib/gspawn.c: Corresponding documentation updates.
926 * glib/glib.symbols: Corresponding changes: Mark the ABI stability
927 symbols as PRIVATE, add the new _utf8-suffixed ones.
929 2005-08-24 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
931 * glib/gtypes.h (G_MININT64): Cast the constant to gint64; it is
932 guint64 otherwise and that can produce warnings about comparison
933 between signed and unsigned.
935 2005-08-23 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
937 * glib/gutils.c: Fix the crt_externs.h include.
939 2005-08-23 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
941 * NEWS: Fix spelling of my first name.
943 2005-08-23 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
947 * === Released 2.8.1 ===
951 2005-08-20 Hans Breuer <hans@breuer.org>

957 * configure.in: Check for <sys/wait.h>
959 * glib/gbacktrace.c: Include <sys/wait.h> on if HAVE_SYS_WAIT_H.
961 2005-08-18 Ross Burton <ross@burtonini.com>
964 Optimise single-character insertions.
969 * tests/string-test.c:
970 Add tests for new optimisation, and fix a leak.
972 2005-08-17 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
974 * configure.in: Check for crt_externs.h and _NSGetEnviron.
976 * glib/gutils.c: On Darwin, include crt-externs.h and
977 define environ using _NSGetEnviron(). (#313731)
979 2005-08-16 Stepan Kasal <kasal@ucw.cz>
981 * glib/gutils.c (g_get_any_init): Move the body of the big if...
982 (g_get_any_init_do): ... to this new function.
983 (g_get_any_init): Declare as inline.
984 (g_get_any_init_locked): New inline function, does the locking.
985 Make use of these two throughout the code.
987 2005-08-15 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
989 * glib/gbacktrace.c (g_on_error_stack_trace): Wait for
990 the child process and then simply return. This makes
991 The "S" option work as documented in g_on_error_query().
992 (#313125, Matthew F. Barnes)
994 * glib/gunicode.h: Update the link to Unicode category
995 values. (#313369, Behnam Esfahbod)
997 * glib/gqueue.c (g_queue_find_custom): Clarify docs
998 a little. (#311727, Tristan van Berkom)
1000 * glib/abicheck.sh, gobject/abicheck.sh: Make the
1001 check work on ia64 too, where some symbols ended up
1002 in yet another section.
