+
+1999-02-15 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
+
+ * glib.h, glibconfig.h.win32, configure.in: Changed signature of
+ all g_static_mutex_* functions to take a pointer rather than the
+ struct itself. This is not an issue at the moment, because those
+ funcs are really macros, but is it un'G'ish and might fall on our
+ feet in the future.
+
+Mon Feb 15 07:45:54 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * configure.in (--enable-debug): default to yes for development trees.
+
+Mon Feb 15 06:18:58 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * glib.h: return guints instead of gints for g_hash_table_size
+ and g_hash_table_foreach_remove.
+
+Wed Feb 10 12:01:42 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * configure.in: don't reset G_MODULE_IMPL, so it can be overridden
+ from the command line.
+
+1999-02-10 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
+
+ * glib.h: s/G_LOCK_DECLARE/G_LOCK_DEFINE/ throuhout glib. Added
+ G_LOCK_EXTERN macro to declare a lock externally.
+
+Wed Feb 10 06:20:30 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * gmutex.c (g_static_private_set): invoke destroy notifier when
+ overwriting values, initialize new array fields with NULL.
+ (g_static_private_free_data): do not skip destroy notification for
+ data == NULL.
+
+ * gutils.c (g_direct_equal): compare pointer values directly instead
+ of just their guint values which is a loosing conversion for
+ sizeof(gpointer)==8 systems.
+ (g_get_any_init): restructured code so we don't use endless loops like
+ while (1), which boil down to an ugly alias for goto.
+ strip ,.* from the real name.
+
+February 9, 1999 sopwith@redhat.com
+
+ . glist.c, gnode.c, gslist.c: allocate pools of 128 items instead
+ of 1024 items.
+
+1999-02-08 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
+
+ * configure.in, acconfig.h: Changed the test for getpwuid_r to
+ exclude those systems (i.e. IRIX), that set ENOSYS after the call.
+ Test, if pthread_getspecific is posix like or something different,
+ as on PCThreads.
+
+Sun Feb 7 21:56:00 1999 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
+
+ * gmem.c (g_mem_profile): Copy all elements
+ of the allocations[] array, including the last.
+ (Pointed out by "Matthew W. Samsonoff" <mws7323@osfmail.isc.rit.edu>)
+
+1999-02-05 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
+
+ * configure.in: Make the error message in case of a broken thread
+ system a bit more informative.
+
+ * gutils.c (g_get_any_init): Changed the error logic again, now
+ only leaving the memory doubling loop, when success is reached or
+ when the user isn't found or when the buffer is 32k big,
+ additionally now getpwuid will be run, if getpwuid_r didn't work
+ out properly. A warning is issued however.
+
+Thu Feb 04 20:42:24 1999 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>

+
+ * gmessages.c (g_log_default_handler): (Win32:) Don't call
+ ensure_stdout_valid (which would open an unneeded console window)
+ if we're calling a logging function. Define ensure_stdout_valid
+ as an empty macro on Unix.
+
+ * gutils.c (g_get_any_init): (Win32:) Trust HOME first if defined,
+ then try HOMEDRIVE and HOMEPATH.
+
+Mon Feb 1 19:04:28 1999 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
+
+ * gmain.c (g_main_iterate): Release the main_loop

+ that we are not holding the main loop lock
+ over user code.
+
+1999-01-30 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

+
+ * configure.in: Fixed typo. Now HPUX 11 thread system detection
+ should work.

+ posix thread library. This is to avoid writing down all the tests
+ twice. New test for thread system on HPUX 11. Info from Matt

+
+Wed Jan 27 20:39:49 PST 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
+
+ * acinclude.m4: Xsed isn't valid here, don't use it
+
+ * ltmain.sh
+ * ltconfig: better file magic regexp for Linux libs
+
+ * gmodule/Makefile.am: arg, noinst_LTLIBRARIES doesn't make shared
+ libs, revert my previous change to this file
+
+ * docs/texinfo.tex: add it so automake doesn't whine
+
+Wed Jan 27 01:57:19 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * configure.in (G_MODULE_HAVE_DLERROR): applied patch from Andrej
+ Borsenkow <borsenkow.msk@sni.de> to also check for dlsym() in system
+ libraries and -ldl, to catch systems that provide dlopen() in libc
+ and dlsym() in libdl. this is at least the case for Reliant UNIX
+ 5.44 (labeling itself as SINIX).
+
+Tue Jan 26 13:39:22 PST 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
+
+ * configure.in: don't use backquotes in warning text
+
+1999-01-26 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
+
+ * gdate.c (g_date_set_time): Removed the #warning about MT
+ unsafety without localtime_r.
+
+ * configure.in: Moved it here.
+
+Mon Jan 25 10:07:53 1999 Raph Levien <raph@gimp.org>
+
+ * configure.in: (#define G_THREADS_IMPL...) Changed the #define,
+ adding the G_THREADS_IMPL_ prefix to $g_threads_impl_def because
+ it looked wrong to me and was breaking gimp compile.
+
+Mon Jan 25 15:34:43 1999 Timur Bakeyev <mc@bat.ru>
+
+ * configure.in, gstrfuncs.c: Inverted logic of NO_SYS_SYGLIST_DECL -
+ now it's normal (see 1999-01-19 Josh MacDonald). Also, remove from
+ #include <signal.h> wrapper NO_SYS_SYGLIST - *sys_syglist[] declara-
+ tion hides there.
+
+1999-01-25 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
+
+ * configure.in: Do not use the thread libs, when searching for
+ some functions, as this might require glib to always be linked
+ with the thread libs on some platforms.
+
+ * gutils.c (g_get_any_init): Don't set errno to zero and use it
+ only as the error code, if the function returned a value less
+ 0. It might happen, that the call succeeds, even though the errno
+ is set during the call (i.e. it first looks for a passwd file,
+ which is not found). Submitted by Michael Natterer
+ <mitschel@cs.tu-berlin.de>. BTW: Sorry for all the mess with that
+ `getpwuid_r' change, but it had to be done once.
+
+Sun Jan 24 10:33:30 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * gutils.c (g_get_any_init): reverted raja's changes, since they leaked
+ a struct passwd contents buffer and for the rest mostly substituted a
+ while loop with a bunch of gotos.
+ restored the getpwuid() code to what we had after my recent clean ups
+ ("Sat Jan 23 02:14:28 1999 Tim Janik"), module yosh's recent changes.
+ to feature solaris behaviour of directly returning errno, we don't
+ modify error anymore if it's > 0 and simply reset errno.
+ don't reset g_home_dir for !NATIVE_WIN32 && !NATIVE_WIN32.
+
+1999-01-24 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
+
+ * gutils.c
+ (g_get_any_init) [HAVE_GETPWUID_R && HAVE_GETPWUID_R_POSIX]:
+ Hopefully got the error handling for `getpwuid_r' right.
+ (g_get_any_init) [HAVE_GETPWUID_R && !HAVE_GETPWUID_R_POSIX]:
+ Fix typo (change `pw == NULL' to `pw != NULL').
+
+Sun Jan 24 00:36:22 EST 1999 Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
+
+ * ghash.c:
+ - Revert previous "fix" (which really just did things a
+ different way).
+ - (g_hash_table_remove): Don't need to support multiple values
+ for a single key.
+
+ * tests/hash-test.c:
+ Add test where hash function always returns a single value.
+ Add beginnings of tests for g_hash_table_foreach[_remove] and
+ g_hash_table_remove.
+
+Sat Jan 23 20:40:06 PST 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
+
+ * gutils.c: removed the #warning about MT without getpwuid_r
+
+ * configure.in: and moved it here
+
+Sat Jan 23 22:45:59 1999 Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
+
+ * ghash.c (g_hash_table_lookup_node, g_hash_table_lookup,
+ g_hash_table_insert, g_hash_table_remove,
+ g_hash_table_lookup_extended):
+ - Fixed bug that overwrote nodes in hash buckets instead of
+ adding them to the hash bucket node list.
+ Hash tables now work as advertised.
+
+ (g_hash_table_resize):
+ - Use g_new0 instead of manual init.
+ - Space out code a bit for readability.
+
+ (g_hash_nodes_destroy):
+ - Replaced "if (!hash_node) return;" with
+ "if (hash_node) {do stuff}".
+ Testing takes up less code space than explicit call to
+ 'return' before end of function. (look at gcc -S)
+
+ Updated module header copyright to 1999.
+ New module macro G_HASH_BUCKET for (table,key)->bucket lookups.
+
+ * tests/hash-test.c:
+ - Add two new tests, one with strings as the keys and values, and
+ one with ints as the keys and values. Tests indirect (strings)
+ and direct (ints) hashing.
+ - Cleanup unused junk left over from testglib.c.
+ - Converted a g_print call to g_assert_not_reached.
+ - Updated copyright to 1999.
+
+ * testglib.c, tests/string-test.c:
+ - Init 'tmp_string' var to NULL, silencing uninit-var warning.
+
+1999-01-23 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
+
+ * gutils.c (g_get_any_init) [HAVE_GETPWUID_R]:
+ Rewrite not to look at `errno' if library call succeeds, since
+ `errno' is not reset to 0.
+
+Sat Jan 23 16:17:04 1999 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
+
+ * glibconfig.h.win32: Update the magic values for
+ pthread_mutex_t size and initializer bytes to match the
+ latest version of pthreads for Win32.
+
+Sat Jan 23 02:14:28 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * gutils.c (g_get_any_init): cleaned up the errno mess for
+ GETPWUID. we especially don't want to g_error() out here!
+ the warning for G_THREADS_ENABLED and !HAVE_GETPWUID_R isn't
+ gcc related.
+ if !HAVE_PWD_H and !NATIVE_WIN32, g_free the home dir before
+ resetting it to NULL, why are we doing this anyways?
+ reordered code a bit so we always provide defaults (except
+ for g_home_dir).
+
+Thu Jan 21 12:40:11 EST 1999 Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
+
+ * tests/{Makefile.am, string-test.c, strfunc-test.c}:
+ Separate string and strfunc tests, working towards goal of
+ having separate test for each of the GLib modules.
+ Add a couple GString length tests.
+
+Thu Jan 21 09:36:05 EST 1999 Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
+
+ * configure.in:
+ Use AC_PREREQ not AC_REQUIRE for autoconf version test.
+
+1999-01-21 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
+
+ * gutils.c (g_get_any_init): Changed error handling again, as the
+ error is not always set in errno, it is the return value on some
+ systems. What an evil world.
+
+Thu Jan 21 05:35:20 1999 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
+
+ * gstrfuncs.c: Include signal.h only when the signal names will be
+ needed.
+
+Wed Jan 20 22:09:59 EST 1999 Mandrake <mandrake@mandrake.net>
+
+ * configure.in / Makefile.am : made some adjustments for automake 1.4
+ and autoconf 2.13 (per suggestions made by Raja R Harinath
+ <harinath@cs.umn.edu>)
+
+Wed Jan 20 20:33:14 EST 1999 Mandrake <mandrake@mandrake.net>
+
+ * autogen.sh: automake 1.4 and libtool 1.2d notices.
+ (maybe I'll write an actual test for automake 1.4 later)
+
+Wed Jan 20 15:05:25 PST 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
+
+ * HACKING: new file
+
+ * Makefile.am: since we require automake 1.4 now, ditch the build
+ top-level first and just use SUBDIRS
+
+ * gmodule/Makefile.am: use noinst_LTLIBRARIES instead of overriding
+ the install rule
+
+Wed Jan 20 16:16:01 EST 1999 Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
+
+ * gutils.c (g_get_any_init):
+ Revert previous patch, move error value set line down to proper
+ place. Caught by Elliot Lee <sopwith@redhat.com>.
+
+Wed Jan 20 20:48:58 GMT 1999 Adam D. Moss <adam@gimp.org>
+
+ * gutils.c (g_get_any_init): All gtk apps were broken
+ here on my setup. I changed the error to a warning to at
+ least get things limping.
+
+1999-01-20 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
+
+ * gutils.c (g_get_any_init): Use getpwuid_r with the right
+ signature, if available.
+
+ * configure.in, acconfig.h: Test for existance of getpwuid_r and
+ its signature.
+
+Tue Jan 19 20:52:43 1999 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
+
+ * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add new Win32 files.
+
+ * README.win32: Describe the conditional compilation macros.
+
+ * makefile.lcc: Removed.
+
+1999-01-19 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
+
+ * configure.in: Moved test for localtime_r and rand_r to a place
+ after the determination of the G_THREAD_LIBS and use them for
+ finding those functions, necessary on systems with a different C
+ library libc_r for threaded progs, like FreeBSD 2.2.x. Info from
+ Timur Bakeyev <mc@bat.ru>.
+
+Tue Jan 19 00:44:24 1999 Josh MacDonald <jmacd@axis.hip.berkeley.edu>
+
+ * gstrfuncs.c (g_strsignal): The "extern char* sys_siglist"
+ declaration breaks systems with different declarations, like
+ mine (FreeBSD). So, I added a configuration variable to decide
+ whether the declaration is neccesary. Change also appears on
+ line 275 of configure.in.
+
+Sun Jan 17 17:13:54 CST 1999 Shawn T. Amundson <amundson@gtk.org>
+
+ * Released GLib 1.1.13

+
+Mon Jan 18 00:02:46 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * NEWS: updates for 1.1.13.
+
+Sun Jan 17 17:15:59 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * gtree.c (g_tree_traverse): removed assertion about rtree->root being
+ NULL, so this function can be applied to unpopulated trees as well, fix
+ provided by Simon Kagedal <sika8225@csd.uu.se>.
+
+Sun Jan 17 11:17:19 1999 Christopher Blizzard <blizzard@appliedtheory.com>
+
+ * glib.spec: add packager address
+
+Sun Jan 17 11:10:05 1999 Christopher Blizzard <blizzard@appliedtheory.com>
+
+ * glib.spec: increment version number to 1.1.13
+
+Sun Jan 17 16:14:03 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * glib.h (g_error): if !defined (G_LOG_DOMAIN) define G_LOG_DOMAIN as
+ ((gchar*) 0) instead of ((void*) 0) to silence egcs C++ mode, reported
+ by Seth Alves <alves@hungry.com>.
+
+Sun Jan 17 14:13:52 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * glib.h: added a define G_HOOK_DEFERRED_DESTROY, to substitute a noop
+ GHookList.hook_destroy function.
+
+ * ghook.c (g_hook_destroy_link): don't really call hook_destroy if it
+ is G_HOOK_DEFERRED_DESTROY. for the case where we invoke hook->destroy()
+ we now clean up the hook completely afterwards, i.e. data, func and
+ destroy are immediately set to NULL and hook_free can't play with that
+ values anymore.
+
+ * gmain.c (g_source_add): set hook_destroy to G_HOOK_DEFERRED_DESTROY,
+ instead of using an ugly _noop() hack, this is to avoid an uneccessary
+ function invokation. set hook_free to g_source_destroy_func, this way
+ we always invoke the destroy notifiers for user_data and source_data
+ after execution of dispatch(). thus, g_source_destroy_func() will always
+ be called within the main_loop lock (this wasn't really assured
+ before), and can release and reaquire the look around destroy notifier
+ invokation.
+
+Sun Jan 17 11:01:40 1999 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
+
+ * config.h.win32 glibconfig.h.win32: Increment version number here
+ also.
+
+Sun Jan 17 05:12:17 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * configure.in: incremented version number to 1.1.13, bin age 0,
+ interface age 0.
+
+ * glib.h: added hook_destroy member to struct _GHookList.
+
+ * ghook.c (g_hook_destroy_link): if the hook_list defines a hook_destroy
+ function, use that to marshal hook destruction notifiers.
+
+ * gmain.c: removed g_source_free_func and added g_source_destroy_func,
+ which marshalls the user_data and source_data destructors of sources
+ outside of the main_loop lock.
+ removed GIdleData struct since its sole member callback can be passed
+ as source_data directly.
+ added a gboolean return value to all g_source_remove* functions,
+ indicating whether the source could be removed, because these functions
+ don't issue warnings upon unseccessful removals themselves. this way at
+ least the caller gets a chance to warn upon failing removals.
+ (g_main_iterate): set in_check_or_prepare around calls to check() or
+ prepare().
+ (g_main_pending): simply return FALSE if called from within check() or
+ prepare().
+ (g_main_iteration): issue a warning if called from within check() or
+ prepare() and bail out with FALSE.
+ (g_main_run): likewise.
+ (g_source_remove_by_funcs_user_data): new function to remove sources by
+ user data and function table.
+ (g_idle_remove_by_data): new function to really remove idles only, since
+ g_source_remove_by_user_data would remove timeouts or other sources as
+ well.
+
+1999-01-16 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
+
+ * Merge in current Win32 version:
+
+ * README.win32: More text.
+
+ * config.h.win32 glibconfig.h.win32: Update to match the
+ corresponding generated files on Unix.
+
+ * makefile.msc: Update with new source files, and gthread
+ library. Use the compiler flag -MD instead of using -D_DLL and
+ /nodefaultlib:libc msvcrt.lib in the link phase.
+
+ * glib.def: Update to include new functions, drop removed ones.
+
+ * glib.h: Add comments about main loop and polling on Win32. (In
+ general, it's only for the GIMP's use.) Add Win32 IO Channel
+ functions. Remove the obsoleted old IO Channel stuff (which was
+ in #if 0 already).
+
+ * giowin32.c: New file.
+
+ * gmain.c: Include config.h, conditionalize <sys/time.h>
+ inclusion. Add g_poll implementation for Win32 (only for the
+ GIMP's needs for now, it's hard or even impossible to be as clean
+ and generic as on Unix). Implement g_get_current_time on Win32. If
+ threads aren't supported, don't try to wake up main thread's
+ loop. On Win32, use a semaphore and not a pipe to wake up the main
+ loop.
+
+ * gmessages.c: On Win32, allocate a console window if the standard
+ output handle is invalid before writing to stdout, and reopen stdout
+ to that console window.
+
+ * giochannel.c: Conditionalize unistd.h inclusion. Some indentation
+ cleanup.
+
+ * gstrfuncs.c: Include <signal.h>.
+
+ * gutils.c: On Win32, also check the HOMEDRIVE and HOMEPATH
+ environment variables.
+
+Sun Jan 17 01:06:38 1999 Timur Bakeyev <mc@bat.ru>
+
+ * configure.in: Add support for FreeBSD 2.2.x macro _THREAD_SAFE.
+
+Wed Jan 13 11:27:24 PST 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
+
+ * glib.h: don't use inline for !__GNUC__ case with g_warning,
+ g_error, and g_message wrappers since some compilers throw

+
+Tue Jan 12 21:59:14 PST 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
+
+ * acinclude.m4
+ * ltconfig
+ * ltmain.sh: upgrade to libtool 1.2d (with fixes for irix6 and osf)
+
+ * testglib.c: removed unused cruft
+
+Tue Jan 12 09:57:06 PST 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
+
+ * gdate.c: #warning isn't portable, check for gcc
+
+1999-01-12 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
+
+ * gdate.c: Include config.h to get HAVE_LOCALTIME_R macro.
+
+ * configure.in: Moved function check back to the place, they've
+ been before.
+
+1999-01-11 Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
+
+ * gstrfuncs.c:
+ Do not use vasprintf.
+
+ * configure.in, glib.h, testglib.c, tests/.cvsignore,
+ tests/Makefile.am, tests/alloca-test.c:
+ Do not use alloca.
+
+1999-01-11 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
+
+ * configure.in: Test for localtime_r only after including the
+ right MT enabling CFLAGS (i.e. -D_REENTRANT on most systems).
+
+ * configure.in: Find right thread system on DG/UX. Thanks to Marc
+ J. Fraioli <fraioli@dg-rtp.dg.com> for hint. Finally removed the
+ stuff for -fstack-check, that didnt work anyway.
+
+ * gdate.c (g_date_set_time): Emit warning, if no localtime_r
+ function is available on thread enabled systems. Define ptm only,
+ if really needed, and assert on it.
+
+Sat Jan 9 15:08:44 1999 Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
+
+ * testglib.c:
+ Make all aux functions static.
+
+ * tests/Makefile.am, tests/dirname-test.c, tests/type-test.c:

+
+Sat Jan 9 13:53:00 1999 Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
+
+ * configure.in:
+ Add checks for vasprintf, localtime_r.
+
+ * gdate.c (g_date_set_time):
+ Use localtime if localtime_r is not available.
+
+ * gstrfuncs.c (g_strdup_vprintf):
+ Use glibc vasprintf if possible; it's a bit faster than using
+ GLib routines, and makes output code a bit smaller.
+
+ * acconfig.h:
+ Remove HAVE_VSNPRINTF and HAVE_VPRINTF. autoheader picks these
+ up automatically and puts them in config.h.in.
+
+Thu Jan 7 15:14:08 1999 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
+
+ * gmain.c (g_source_free_func): Call the source-specific
+ free function when the hook is freed not when it
+ is destroyed; this fixes a bug where a timeout destroyed
+ from itself would access already freed data.
+
+1999-01-07 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
+
+ * gutils.c (g_get_any_init): Here we must replace getpwuid by
+ getpwuid_r, but as I do not know how for now, I just made a FIXME
+ note ;-)
+
+ * gdate.c (g_date_set_time): localtime --> localtime_r to make it
+ thread safe.
+
+ * configure.in: We do not need to check for broken solaris mutex
+ intitializer any longer. Provide a macro to show the used thread
+ implementation. Not nice, but this is needed until thread support
+ is completed here inside glib.
+
+Tue Jan 5 12:23:52 PST 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
+
+ * configure.in: ditch whitespace before GLIB_SYSDEFS #includes,

+
+ * gthread/testgthread.c: cleanups
+
+ * tests/node-test.c: #include unistd.h for exit()
+
+1999-01-04 Andrew T. Veliath <andrewtv@usa.net>

+
+Mon Jan 4 15:35:29 PST 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
+
+ * acglib.m4: some echos interpret \n's and some don't. Deal with
+ accordingly.
+
+Mon Jan 4 20:58:50 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * gscanner.c: eliminated extraneous "register" qualifiers in variable
+ declarations.
+
+ * gmain.c: #undef events and revents which may have been defined in
+ sys/poll.h for SVR3,4 compatibility on some AIX systems. fix been
+ provided by Philippe Defert <Philippe.Defert@cern.ch>.
+
+Mon Jan 4 14:38:11 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * glib.h: adjusted the g_strdup_a, g_strndup_a and g_strconcat3_a macros
+ so their arguments get only evaluated once. changed g_strconcat3_a to
+ have the same semantics as g_strconcat, i.e. if a certain argument is
+ NULL, the rest of the parameter list is skipped.
+
+ * tests/alloca-test.c: removed #if/#endif G_HAVE_ALLOCA, we need to be
+ able to compile on all systems. added test for g_strconcat() semantics.
+
+ * we need a alloca() replacement for !G_HAVE_ALLOCA rsn!

+ Added tests for new alloca-based string routines.
+ Reformatted a couple strings.
+
+Sat Jan 2 02:20:59 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * ghook.c:
+ (g_hook_list_invoke):
+ (g_hook_list_invoke_check):
+ (g_hook_list_marshal_check):
+ (g_hook_list_marshal): avoid unneccessary extra hook referencing (the
+ explicit hook referencing became unneccessarry with my changes from
+ Mon Dec 21 21:48:29 1998).
+
+ * gmain.c (g_main_iterate): fixed reference counting leaks with
+ premature loop aborts.
+
+Fri Jan 1 22:47:44 1999 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * gscanner.c (g_scanner_unexp_token): handle G_TOKEN_IDENTIFIER_NULL

+
+Fri Jan 1 17:09:19 EST 1999 Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
+
+ * configure.in, glib.h:
+ Added two new alloca-based function macros, g_strdup_a and
+ g_strconcat_a. These are stack-based and much faster than
+ their g_malloc-based counterparts. Kudos to Ulrich Drepper
+ for help on this one.

+
+Tue Dec 22 10:32:11 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * ghook.c (g_hook_first_valid): fixed buglet that could cause bogus
+ warnings.
+
+Mon Dec 21 21:48:29 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * glib.h:
+ * gmain.c: there was a reference count race for hooks during invocation
+ loops. since all (known) hook loop implementations, do currently start
+ out with g_hook_first_valid() and iterate with g_hook_next_valid(),
+ g_hook_first_valid() will now return a referenced hook, and
+ g_hook_next_valid() will "eat" that, and eventually transfer it to
+ the next hook. <sigh> unfortunately this requires g_hook_next_valid()
+ to take the hook_list as additional argument.
+
+ * gmain.c (g_main_iterate): adjusted callers of g_hook_next_valid().
+
+Mon Dec 21 03:48:04 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * gmain.c (g_main_iterate): default initialize source_timeout with -1
+ so we have a sane timeout value if (*prpare) doesn't set it.
+
+Sat Dec 19 16:56:02 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
+
+ * glib.h gmain.c (G_PRIORITY_LOW): Add #defines defining

+
+Sat Dec 19 16:56:02 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
+
+ * gmain.c (g_main_poll): Allocate space for pollfd's
+ _after_ adding poll wake-up-pipe record.
+
+ * gmain.c (g_main_add_poll): Changed name
+ of internal function g_main_add_poll_unlocked()
+ back from the non-sensical g_main_add_unlocking_poll().
+
+Sat Dec 19 06:25:55 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * glib.m4: fixed a minor bug that would let configures bail out
+ if the MODULES argument contained newlines.
+
+ * acglib.m4: new file to be included by configure.in. it holds
+ special GLIB_ autoconfiguration macros, eventually some of the
+ easier ones should be moved into glib.m4, e.g. GLIB_IF_VAR_EQ,
+ GLIB_STR_CONTAINS or GLIB_ADD_TO_VAR.

+
+ * glib.h:
+ * gmain.c:
+ (g_main_is_running): new function to check whether a main loop has been
+ quitted.
+ (g_main_new): added a gboolean argument to determine whether the loop
+ should be considered initially running or not. however, g_main_run ()
+ will still reset the main loops running state to TRUE upon initial
+ entrance.
+
+ * gmain.c:
+ (g_main_iterate): documented this function's purpose in 5 steps.
+ for step 2), flag sources as G_SOURCE_READY even if !dispatch and
+ check G_SOURCE_READY prior to (*prepare), so we don't call (*prepare)
+ on them multiple times.
+
+Thu Dec 17 23:43:47 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * gmain.c (g_main_add_poll): reordered arguments, so GPollFD* comes
+ first, <sigh> (sorry Snorfle, i should have let you know in the first
+ place).
+ (g_main_dispatch): stack G_HOOK_FLAG_IN_CALL flags. call source's
+ destructor when destroying a source.
+
+1998-12-17 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
+
+ * garray.c (g_ptr_array_remove_index): Fixed size in g_memmove,

+ changed G_LOCK_DEFINE() to G_LOCK_DECLARE() and introduced

+ changed semantics of g_thread_supported to g_thread_supported() so it
+ can be used as a function like g_module_supported(). the actuall

+ various indentation and coding style cleanups.

+
+1998-12-15 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>

+
+1998-12-15 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

+
+ * glist.c (g_list_free_1): Removed some lines

+
+1998-12-11 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
+
+ * gthread/gthread-nspr.c, configure.in: Added new default thread
+ implementation on top of the mozilla nspr library.
+
+ * gmem.c, gmessaged.c, gthread/gthread.c, gthread/gthread-*.c:
+ Changed GStaticMutex and GStaticPrivate in gmem.c and gmessages.c
+ into GMutex and GPrivate resp. to make error reporting and use of
+ gmem possible in most (not all, though) gthread functions. Also
+ initialized the modules via new init functions.

+ as it is not necessary. Changed the error message. Corrected logic
+ for g_thread_use_default_impl.
+

+ after calling g_thread_init().
+
+1998-12-09 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
+
+ * gthread/testgthread.c (new_thread): Now also working for posix
+ threads; (wait_thread): Now a better implementation, that does not
+ use 100% CPU.
+
+ * Made the thread related code follow GNU coding standard.
+
+ * Made a comment (HOLDS:) above each function, that expects the
+ given locks to be held.
+
+ * Changed try_lock to trylock throughout.
+
+ * glib.c: Eventually removed the #if 0'ed code for old GStaticMutex.
+
+ * glib.c: Corrected g_trylock macro for G_DEBUG_LOCKS.
+
+ * gmain.c (g_main_poll_add_unlocked): first take a new poll record
+ form the poll_free_list.
+
+ * gmem.c, gstrfuncs.c, gutils.c: Made it MT safe.
+
+ * gthraed/*.c: Added copyright headers.
+
+ * gthread/gthread-solaris.c: do not use g_log for errors, as g_log
+ uses these module and endless recursions might happen, just use a
+ plain fprintf(stderr,...).
+
+ * gthread/gthread.c (g_thread_try_init): Call g_mutex_init().
+
+ * gthread/testgthread.c: updated test program.
+
+Tue Dec 8 18:49:56 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
+
+ * Start at adding thread-safety. (mostly work
+ of Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>)
+
+ - configure.in now looks for a system thread implementation.
+ Currently support is included for POSIX threads
+ and Solaris threads. The default support is built
+ into a separate library -lgthread.
+
+ - The thread implementation can be modified by passing
+ a vector of functions g_thread_init().
+
+ - The default or supplied functions are used to
+ implement a small set of thread functions for
+ mutexes, condition variables, and thread-private
+ data.
+
+ - GLib now uses these functions to provide thread
+ safety. (In the sense that all global static
+ data is locked... individual structures must still
+ be locked by the caller.)
+
+Sat Dec 12 19:08:59 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>

+ * Removed #define of G_COMPILED_WITH_DEBUGGING from glibconfig.h
+ It shouldn't be there, and it was causing a double #define.
+ (config.h defines it also)
+
+Tue Dec 8 12:18:38 CST 1998 Shawn T. Amundson <amundson@gtk.org>
+
+ * Released GLib 1.1.6
+
+ * NEWS: updated
+
+Mon Dec 7 23:10:41 PST 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
+
+ * gmain.c: fixes to #undef HAVE_POLL case
+
+1998-12-02 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>
+
+ * gdate.c (g_date_set_month): If Julian is valid, we have to
+ update the dmy representation before setting the components
+ of it.
+ (g_date_set_day): Same.
+ (g_date_set_year): Same.
+
+1998-12-02 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>
+
+ * testgdate.c, testgdateparser.c: Two new files. This is kind of
+ ugly code, but I want to go ahead and make the tests available.
+ It isn't contaminating any other code. :-) Since one of these
+ is interactive and the other takes a while to run, I've kept
+ them separate from testglib for now.
+ * Makefile.am: Build gdate test programs.
+
+1998-12-02 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>
+
+ * gdate.c (g_date_valid): Rely on GDate::dmy and GDate::Julian
+ flags, rather than re-checking the validity of the actual
+ values. This should be the correct behavior, the old way was
+ leftover cruft.
+
+ * glib.h, gdate.c: Changed MDY to DMY throughout.
+
+Sat Nov 28 12:53:47 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
+
+ * Makefile.am configure.in acconfig.h giochannel.c
+ glib.h glist.c gmain.c gutils.c:
+
+ - Revised GIOChannel to provide a generic virtual-function
+ based interface.
+ - Added unix fd-based GIOChannel's
+ - Added generic main-loop abstraction
+ - Added timeouts and idle functions using main-loop abstraction.
+
+1998-12-02 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
+
+ * glib.h:
+ * gdate.c: changed `gpointer struct_tm_p' parameter of
+ g_date_to_struct_tm back to `struct tm *tm' and forward declared
+ `struct tm' in glib.h; yes, this is nice, we still need not
+ include time.h.
+
+Tue Dec 1 23:01:44 CST 1998 Shawn T. Amundson <amundson@gtk.org>
+
+ * INSTALL:
+ NEWS:
+ README:
+ glib.spec:
+ docs/glib-config.1: Incremented versions to 1.1.6.
+
+Wed Dec 2 02:10:59 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * gdate.c: s/time_t/GTime/ and s/g_print/g_message/
+ include time.h.
+
+ * glib.h: removed #include <time.h>, changed time_t paramter of
+ g_date_set_time() to time_t, changed struct tm parameter of
+ g_date_to_struct_tm to `gpointer struct_tm_p'. yes, this is not
+ nice, but including time.h actually breaks a bunch of code.
+
+ * incremented GLib version to 1.1.6.
+
+1998-11-30 Havoc Pennington <hp@pobox.com>
+
+ * gdate.c: New file, implements calendrical calculations.
+
+ * glib.h: Added declarations for GDate module.
+
+Mon Nov 30 07:12:10 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * glib.h:
+ * ghook.c: added g_hook_list_marshal_check() to eventually destroy
+ hooks after they got marshalled.
+
+Sun Nov 29 17:31:43 EST 1998 Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
+
+ * configure.in, Makefile.am, gmodule/Makefile.am:
+ Put -DFOO stuff into Makefile.am INCLUDES.
+
+Sun Nov 29 14:17:09 PST 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
+
+ * configure.in: put debug -DFOO stuff into CPPFLAGS, not CFLAGS,
+ so CFLAGS can be overridden at make time properly
+
+Sat Nov 28 01:23:25 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * ghash.c: implemented incremental freezing facility.
+
+Thu Nov 26 01:36:20 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * glib.h:
+ * ghash.c: reverted the g_hash_table_set_key_freefunc() addition,
+ since it's to specialized and needs to be resolved in a generic
+ fashion.
+
+Tue Nov 24 18:57:59 PST 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
+
+ * applied glib-tml-981120-0, change log appended below.
+
+ * glibconfig.h.win32: passthrough 64-bit constants unchanged, VC++
+ infers them
+
+Fri Nov 20 22:26:43 1998 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
+
+ * glib.h: Moved MSC pragmas from glib.h to glibconfig.h.win32.
+ peer_offset field in WIN32 part of GIOChannel removed, need_wakeups
+ added. Added "extern" to __declspec(dllimport).
+
+ * gutils.c: Initialise need_wakeups.
+
+ * glibconfig.h.win32: Pragmas moved here. Define G_GINT64_CONSTANT.
+
+ * gmodule/gmodule.def: Added g_module_build_path.
+
+ * gscanner.c: (g_scanner_cur_value) Move initailisation of v
+ to before its use.
+
+ * glib.def: Added g_(s)list_sort.
+
+ * makefile.msc: A few more comments.
+
+Tue Nov 24 14:05:47 EST 1998 Michael K. Johnson <johnsonm@redhat.com>
+
+ * glib.h: added GFreeFunc and g_hash_table_set_key_freefunc()
+ prototype.
+ * ghash.c: added g_hash_table_set_key_freefunc() implementation.
+ Modified the prototypes of the functions g_hash_node_destroy() and
+ g_hash_nodes_destroy(), and changed the functions that call them
+ to match the new definitions.
+ This changes no external interfaces, and should create no binary
+ or source incompatibilities. It does add a member to the
+ GHashTable structure.
+
+Tue Nov 24 09:40:00 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * glib.h: removed the GListAllocator type and its g_*_allocator_*()
+ function variants (which weren't working anyways) in favour of a
+ generic GAllocator type. new functions:
+ g_allocator_new, g_allocator_free, g_slist_push_allocator,
+ g_slist_pop_allocator, g_list_push_allocator, g_list_pop_allocator,
+ g_node_push_allocator and g_node_pop_allocator.
+
+ * gstring.c: removed bogus slist allocator code.
+ * gtree.c: maintain own list of free tree nodes and don't waste
+ GSLists for that, removed bogus slist allocator code.
+ * glist.c: use GAllocators for node allocation.
+ * gslist.c: use GAllocators for node allocation.
+ * gnode.c: use GAllocators for node allocation.
+
+ * gdataset.c: cleanups wrt automatic initialization.
+
+Mon Nov 23 10:03:58 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@gtk.org>
+
+ * glib.h garray.[ch]: added g_array_insert_vals() to
+ insert elements at an arbitrary index, and
+ g_array_insert_val() macro.
+
+Sun Nov 22 17:07:03 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * glib.h:
+ * gslist.c: new function g_slist_copy() to duplicate a list with all its
+ data pointers.
+ * glist.c: new function g_list_copy.
+
+Sat Nov 21 14:57:39 CST 1998 Shawn T. Amundson <amundson@gtk.org>
+
+ * INSTALL:
+ NEWS:
+ README:
+ configure.in:
+ glib.spec: Updated to version 1.1.5
+
+ * Released GLib 1.1.5
+
+Wed Nov 18 1998 Elliot Lee <sopwith@redhat.com>
+
+ * gdataset.c: There was a code path into g_data_set_internal
+ through a function (g_datalist_id_set_full). Neither function
+ checked for g_dataset_init having been run, but
+ g_data_set_internal used the memchunk. I added
+ a check into g_data_set_internal so it will do the
+ initialization if needed. (There's probably a better way.)
+
+Mon Nov 16 07:48:06 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * glib.h (g_bit_nth_msf): fixed off-by-one error, so we don't waste
+ a loop iteration if (-1) was passed, reported by Andreas Bombe
+ <andreas.bombe@munich.netsurf.de>.
+
+Fri Nov 13 15:17:34 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
+
+ * glist.c gslist.c glib.h: Added g_list_sort() and
+ g_slist_sort() to merge sort GLists and GSLists.
+ Submitted by Sven Over <sven.over@ob.kamp.net>
+ over a year ago!
+
+ * testglib.c: Test the new sort functions.
+
+Wed Nov 11 23:23:22 EST 1998 Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
+
+ * Makefile.am : INCLUDES is the right way to add to CFLAGS, not
+ DEFS. Also there are bugs with '+=' in makefiles.
+ Got rid of DEFS line by moving G_LOG_DOMAIN setting into INCLUDES.
+ Removed redundant -I from INCLUDES.
+
+Wed Nov 11 18:11:24 EST 1998 Gregory McLean <gregm@comstar.net>
+
+ * docs/*.sgml : Batch of new documentation that should be easier
+ to maintain and extend. Plus generate whatever sort of doc file
+ you would like. I didn't change the Makefile stuff as I'm not sure
+ what default doc type people want. Oh and this is all DocBook format.
+ Enjoy!
+
+Tue Nov 10 17:12:45 PST 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
+
+ * configure.in: use __extension__ for long long on gcc >= 2.8 and
+ egcs, and provide a G_GINT64_CONSTANT wrapper so -ansi -pedantic
+ compiles clean.
+
+ * glib.h: make the endian x86 asm __const__ so the compiler can do
+ better optimizations. Also remove the cc clobber, these shouldn't
+ be changing condition codes. Ditch some redundant casts. Add an
+ optimization for 64-bit endian conversions in x86. Use constant
+ wrapper for the generic method.
+
+ * testglib.c: use constant wrappers for 64-bit constants
+
+1998-11-04 Phil Schwan <pschwan@cmu.edu>
+
+ * configure.in: Added 'strncasecmp' to the list of functions to be
+ searched for.
+ * glib.h: Added a prototype for 'g_strncasecmp'
+ * gstrfuncs.c: (g_strncasecmp) new function modeled closely after
+ 'g_strcasecmp'
+
+Wed Nov 4 15:06:44 PST 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
+
+ * config.h.win32 (new file)
+ * glibconfig.h.win32
+ * glib.def
+ * makefile.msc: applied glib-tml-981104, win32 sync
+
+1998-11-03 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
+
+ * glib.h:
+ * garray.c:
+ (g_array_remove_index): new function for removing an entry from an
+ array while preserving the order
+ (g_array_remove_index_fast): new function for removing an entry
+ from an array. the order might be distorted
+ (g_ptr_array_remove_index_fast, g_ptr_array_remove_fast): new
+ functions; working similiar to the above. (they have the semantic
+ of the old g_ptr_array_remove[_index] functions)
+ (g_ptr_array_remove_index, g_ptr_array_remove): new semantic. now
+ the order of the elements in the array is not changed
+ (g_byte_array_remove_index, g_byte_array_remove_index_fast): new
+ functions; byte_array wrapper for g_array_remove_index[_fast]
+
+Sun Nov 1 23:00:18 PST 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
+
+ * glib.h
+ * configure.in: endian macros defined using the glibconfig.h
+ mechanism now
+
+ * ghook.c: casts for GHookFunc and GHookCheckFunc to avoid warnings
+
+Sat Oct 31 20:14:22 PST 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
+
+ * applied glib-tml-981101-1 patch from Tor Lillqvist (ChangeLog
+ entry appended below)
+
+ * testglib.c
+ * gstrfuncs.c
+ * glib.h: use G_HAVE_GINT64, since HAVE_GINT64 is gone
+
+ * gmessages.c
+ * gscanner.c: #include <config.h> in here too, for HAVE_UNISTD_H
+
+1998-11-01 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
+
+ * glib.def: Added the new functions.
+
+ * gutils.c:
+ (g_getenv): Better implementation on Win32. No loop necessary.
+ (g_get_any_init): Use P_tmpdir if defined as tmp directory. Don't
+ set home dir always to NULL on Win32. Don't use tmp directory as
+ last resort home directory, but return NULL if no home
+ directory is known (application must check).
+
+ * makefile.msc: Better touch command, just COPYing a single file
+ sets the timestamp from that file, which isn't what touching should
+ do.
+
+1998-10-31 Raja R Harinath <harinath@cs.umn.edu>
+
+ Land glib-rrh-19981025-0.patch.
+ * Makefile.am (glibconfig.h): New rule.
+ (stamp-gc-h): New rule. Generate `glibconfig.h'.
+ * configure.in (AM_CONFIG_HEADER): It is now `config.h'.
+ (HAVE_BROKEN_WCTYPE): On Solaris, look for iswalnum in -lw before
+ concluding "broken wctype".
+ (glibconfig.h): Use AC_OUTPUT_COMMANDS to put generation code into
+ config.status.
+ * glib.h: Remove a lot of tests and defines. All these have been
+ moved to `configure.in (glibconfig.h)'.
+ * gerror.c: Include <config.h>.
+ * gmem.c: Likewise.
+ * gstrfuncs.c: Likewise.
+ * gutils.c: Likewise.
+
+Sat Oct 31 05:08:26 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * glib.h: removed old G_ENUM(), G_FLAGS(), G_NV() and G_SV() macros.
+ added macros G_STRUCT_OFFSET(), G_STRUCT_MEMBER_P() and
+ G_STRUCT_MEMBER() for handling structure fields through their offsets.
+ (struct _GHookList): added a hook_free function member, that can be used
+ to free additional fields in derived hook structures.
+ g_hook_free(): if hook_list->hook_free != NULL, call this function prior
+ to freeing the hook. (this functionality should have been there in the
+ first place, it just got forgotten as an implementation detail).
+
+Wed Oct 28 00:49:32 PST 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
+
+ * glib.h: G_BREAKPOINT for alpha from Robert Wilhelm
+ <robert@physiol.med.tu-muenchen.de>
+
+Tue Oct 27 07:25:53 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * glib.h:
+ * gscanner.c:
+ (g_scanner_sync_file_offset): new function for file input.
+ rewind the filedescriptor to the current buffer position and blow
+ the file read ahead buffer. usefull for third party uses of our
+ filedescriptor, which hooks onto the current scanning position.
+ (this became neccessary with the implementation of buffered
+ reads).
+ (g_scanner_input_file):
+ (g_scanner_input_text): automatically blow the read ahead buffer.
+ (g_scanner_get_char): blow the read ahead buffer when the end of
+ input is reached, i.e. a '\000' char is read.
+
+Tue Oct 27 00:27:31 PST 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
+
+ * glib.h: get rid of duplicate #g_htonl and friends in the
+ NATIVE_WIN32 part
+
+Mon Oct 26 22:42:01 PST 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
+
+ * glibconfig.h.win32
+ * gutils.c
+ * makefile.msc: win32 patch from Tor Lillqvist (glib-tml-981027-0),
+ fixes some minor win32 buglets
+
+Mon Oct 26 22:12:03 PST 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
+
+ * glib.h: reimplemented the endian stuff, using inline asm
+ for x86. #define g_htonl and friends.
+
+ * testglib.c: new tests for the endian stuff
+
+ * configure.in: care for AIX in gmodule linker flags test (from
+ Joel Becker <jlbec@raleigh.ibm.com>). Check $host_os for linux
+ instead of existance of /usr/include/linux
+
+ * gutils.c: buh-bye evil warning. Thou hast been #ifdef'd out
+ of thine existance!
+
+Tue Oct 27 03:00:50 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * glib.h: removed dummy structure definitions for struct _GCache,
+ _GTree, _GTimer, _GMemChunk, _GListAllocator and _GStringChunk.
+
+ * gutils.c: implement glib's inline functions _after_ all include
+ statements have been processed.
+ removed Tor's MAXPATHLEN check since there already was one supplied
+ further down in this file.
+ (LibMain): special cased the #ifdef __LCC__ case for NATIVE_WIN32,
+ since lcc maybe used on other platforms as well. why in hell is this
+ stuff required?
+ (g_get_any_init): for windows, if the user name is supplied, use it as
+ realname also.
+ in general, if there is no homedir specified, use the tmpdir that
+ we already figured.
+
+ * gtimer.c (g_timer_elapsed): changed a g_assert() statement to
+ g_return_if_fail().
+
+ * applied glib-tml-981020-0.patch for WIN32 portability, added some
+ comments and g_return_if_fail() statements, minor indentation fixes.
+ ChangeLog entry from Tor Lillqvist is appended.
+
+ * glib.h (struct dirent): use lower case structure members.
+
+ * glib.h:
+ * makefile.lcc:
+ * makefile.msc:
+ s/COMPILING_GLIB/GLIB_COMPILATION/
+
+1998-10-20: Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
+
+ * README.win32 glib.def gmodule.def
+ * glibconfig.h.win32 gmodule/gmoduleconf.h.win32:
+ New files for the Windows port. The .def files list exported
+ symbols for the Microsoft linker and compatibles.
+
+ * configure.in:
+ Added checks for some platform-dependent headers: pwd.h sys/param.h
+ sys/select.h sys/time.h sys/times.h unistd.h, and the function lstat.
+
+ * gerror.c:
+ Conditionalized inclusion of system-dependent headers. Changes
+ for Windows: no gdb to do a stack trace. Just call abort().
+
+ * glib.h:
+ Changes for Windows:
+
+ Added macros G_DIR_SEPARATOR, G_DIR_SEPARATOR_S for
+ platform-dependent file name syntax elements. Added macros
+ G_SEARCHPATH_SEPARATOR, G_SEARCHPATH_SEPARATOR_S for
+ platform-dependent search path syntax conventions.
+
+ Added pragmas for Microsoft C to make it more pedantic.
+
+ Marked GLib's global variables for export from DLL.
+
+ Added the function g_strescape that escapes backslashes.
+
+ Added functions g_path_is_absolute and g_path_skip_root to
+ handle platform-dependent file name syntax.
+
+ Added the function g_getenv that expands environment variables
+ that contain references to other environment variables, as is
+ typical on Windows NT.
+
+ Added the GIOChannel structure which is used to encapsulate the
+ IPC mechanism used by the GIMP's plug-ins, and possibly other
+ things later. On Unix a GIOChannel encapsulates just a file
+ descriptor. On Windows it contains a file handle from _pipe() and a
+ few other things related to the implementation of gdk_input_add
+ and GIMP plug-in communication. Subject to change.
+
+ Removed duplicate declarations of the version variables.
+
+ For the Microsoft compiler, declare own implementation of
+ ftruncate and the <dirent.h> functions.
+
+ * gmem.c:
+ Define a symbolic name for the profiling table size.
+
+ * gmessages.c:
+ Conditionalized inclusion of unistd.h. On Windows, output using
+ stdio to stdout.
+
+ * gscanner.c:
+ Conditionalized inclusion of unistd.h. Added changes for
+ Microsoft C. Added CR to the skipped character set. Added small
+ workaround for MSC compiler bug in g_scanner_cur_value.
+
+ * gstrfuncs.c:
+ Added the function g_strescape, which escapes the backslash
+ character. Needed especially when printing Windows filenames.
+
+ * gtimer.c:
+ Conditionalized inclusion of unistd.h and sys/time.h. Added
+ implementations for Windows.
+
+ * gutils.c:
+ Conditionalized inclusion of platform-dependent headers. Use
+ the platform-independent file name syntax macros.
+ Conditionalize code on platform-dependent features. Added the
+ functions g_path_is_absolute g_path_skip_root and g_getenv.
+ Added the GIOChannel-related functions. Added
+ compiler-dependent Unix compatibility functions for Windows.
+
+ * makefile.lcc makefile.msc:
+ New files. Compiler-specific makefiles for LCC-Win32 and
+ Microsoft C. Only Microsoft C is actually supported currently.
+
+ * testglib.c:
+ Added pathname check cases for Windows. Added workaround for
+ bug in the Microsoft runtime library. Improved some tests a bit.

+Sun Oct 25 07:30:10 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * gscanner.c:
+ (g_scanner_peek_next_char):
+ (g_scanner_get_char): no more characters are available if read() returns
+ anything less than 1, not only on 0 return.
+
+ * glib.h:
+ * gstrfuncs.c: final API cleanup of string arrays to suit sopwith's
+ argument order requirements.
+ (g_strsplit): renamed from g_str_array_split().
+ (g_strjoinv): renamed from g_str_array_joinv(), string array is
+ now passed as last parameter. removed `const' qualifier from string
+ array pointer (again).
+ (g_strjoin): new function from sopwith to concatenate strings with
+ an additional seperator.
+ (g_strfreev): renamed from g_str_array_free.
+
+Sat Oct 24 22:23:04 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
+
+ * gnode.c: small fix to g_node_children_foreach to make it work right.
+ From Paco Moya <paco@cadnotebk17.eecs.berkeley.edu>
+
+Wed Oct 21 19:22:58 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * configure.in (G_MODULE_HAVE_DLERROR): reverted part of the changes
+ from Sebastian Wilhelmi (1998-10-20). don't specify a specific loading
+ behaviour (i.e. RTLD_NOW) when we are not sure whether it is supplied.
+ changed the return value from (!f2 && f1) to (!f2 || f1) so we default
+ to not needing an underscore. reverted the extra plugin.c building,
+ because .lo files are not ELF libraries, this can't work. This needs
+ further investigation on Solaris...
+
+Wed Oct 21 17:03:05 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * glib.h:
+ * gstrfuncs.c: API cleanups of the new g_str* functions for consistency
+ with the existing naming scheme for g_str* functions. grouped the g_str*
+ functions that will return a newly allocated string seperatedly. all of
+ the in_place arguments were skipped, the caller is supposed to pass a
+ g_strdup()ed string if he wants to retrive a new copy. indentation and
+ coding style fixups. added some g_return_if_fail() statements.
+ string array functions are prefixed with g_str_array_.
+ (g_strdelimit): return the modified string like all other g_str*
+ functions, that operate in place.
+ (g_strchug): renamed from g_str_chug(), removed in_place argument.
+ (g_strchomp): renamed from g_str_chomp(), removed in_place argument.
+ (g_strstrip): renamed from g_str_strip(), removed in_place argument.
+ (g_str_array_join): renamed from g_strconcatv(), since it actually
+ operates on a string array and has totaly different semantics from
+ g_strconcat(). check for separator != NULL, don't segfault if the first
+ string is NULL. removed the `const' from the string array that's passed,
+ so users can operate on gchar** string arrays.
+ (g_str_array_split): renamed from g_str_split() because we actually
+ produce a string array. reimplemented this function for efficiency.
+ removed macro aliases g_str_joinv and g_str_join.
+
+1998-10-20 Elliot Lee <sopwith@redhat.com>
+
+ * glib.h, gstrfuncs.c: Move string join/split/free routines from
+ libgnome/gnome-string, rename, and add g_str_chug.
+
+1998-10-20 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
+
+ * configure.in: made the check for needed _ in module's func-names
+ work on solaris. (G_MODULE_NEED_USCORE must be set outside
+ AC_CACHE_VAL, dlopen(0,0) refused to work on solaris).
+
+Tue Oct 20 03:32:58 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
+
+ * configure.in
+ * acconfig.h: added test for endianness
+
+ * glib.h: #define endian macros for system and some conversions
+ between byte order
+
+Thu Oct 8 06:47:27 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * glib.h:
+ * gdataset.c: removed functions g_dataset_id_set_destroy and
+ g_datalist_id_set_destroy and macros g_dataset_set_destroy and
+ g_datalist_set_destroy.
+ added new functions g_dataset_id_remove_no_notify and
+ g_datalist_id_remove_no_notify plus associated macros
+ g_dataset_remove_no_notify and g_datalist_remove_no_notify, which
+ will remove a certain data portion without invokation of its destroy
+ notifier, this should only be used in very controled circumstances.
+
+Wed Oct 7 05:31:24 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * glib.h:
+ removed the #pragma } statement after extern "C" {. use
+ (c-set-offset 'inextern-lang 0) to fixup emacs cc-mode indentation.
+
+ * glib.h:
+ * ghook.c: API and code cleanups. changed the G_HOOK_ACTIVE and
+ G_HOOK_IN_CALL enum vals to G_HOOK_FLAG_ACTIVE and G_HOOK_FLAG_IN_CALL.
+ changed the G_HOOK_IS_ACTIVE() and G_HOOK_IS_IN_CALL() macros to
+ G_HOOK_ACTIVE() and G_HOOK_IN_CALL().
+ fixed the g_hook_find* functions, so they iterate over non-active
+ hooks as well.
+ (g_hook_first_valid):
+ (g_hook_next_valid): added an extra argument gboolean may_be_in_call,
+ which indicates whether G_HOOK_IN_CALL() hooks are considered valid
+ or not. these two functions are meant as iterators for the hook list
+ invocation, so they need to a) provide functionality to implement
+ may_recurse bahaviour and b) only walk active hooks.
+
+Tue Oct 6 14:29:47 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * gmem.c (g_malloc0): fixed memory offsett when ENABLE_MEM_CHECK is
+ defined and ENABLE_MEM_PROFILE is not (patch from Martin Pool
+ <mbp@wistful.humbug.org.au>).
+
+Sat Oct 3 01:18:10 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * glib.h:
+ * ghook.c:
+ (g_hook_list_invoke):
+ (g_hook_list_invoke):
+ (g_hook_list_marshal): properly handle the first valid hook to call,
+ it maybe IN_CALL already.
+ (g_hook_list_marshal): minor name change.
+
+Fri Oct 2 23:21:21 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * glib.h:
+ * ghook.c: renamed GHook.id to GHook.hook_id so we don't get troubles
+ with ObjC which reserves "id" as a keyword (Raja R Harinath
+ <harinath@cs.umn.edu>).
+
+Wed Sep 30 10:53:03 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * Makefile.am: added ghook.c.
+
+ * glib.h:
+ * ghook.c: generic callback maintenance functions.
+
+ * glib.h: define G_GNUC_UNUSED.
+
+Fri Sep 25 00:04:37 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * configure.in: version bump to 1.1.4, binary age 0, interface age 0.
+
+ * glib.h (struct _GScanner): dumped peeked_char and text_len in favour
+ of *text_end and *buffer for buffered read()s.
+
+ * gscanner.c: changed peeking and retrival of next character so we
+ have buffered reads. fixed minor bug with number parsing error
+ reporting. made some static!!! variables local ones (why did we use
+ static temporary variables in the lowlevel tokenization code anyways?).
+
+Mon Sep 21 23:23:10 CDT 1998 Shawn T. Amundson <amundson@gtk.org>
+
+ * Released GLib 1.1.3
+
+Mon Sep 21 07:43:13 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * glib.h: added g_renew() which works as g_new() for g_realloc().
+
+Mon Sep 21 02:22:12 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * NEWS file update for upcoming release of GLib + GModule
+ version 1.1.3, binary age 0, interface age 0. (GModule uses
+ the same version numbers as GLib.)
+
+ * glib.h: swap the inclusion of of float.h and limits.h to work
+ around a egcs 1.1 oddity on Solaris 2.5.1 (fix provided by
+ Per Abrahamsen <abraham@dina.kvl.dk>).
+
+ * glib.h:
+ * gscanner.c: renamed the GValue union to GTokenValue, this should
+ not affect source compatibility in most cases.
+
+ * ghash.c: added some g_return_if_fail() statements. make
+ g_hash_table_lookup_node() an inline function so we save an extra
+ function invokation on lookups.
+
+Sun Sep 20 18:21:46 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
+
+ * ltmain.sh: Patch to libtool-1.2b to make --disable-static
+ work.
+
+Sun Sep 20 02:09:44 1998 Josh MacDonald <jmacd@axis.hip.berkeley.edu>
+
+ * glib.h: New function g_hash_table_foreach_remove is similar to
+ g_hash_table_foreach, but the callback's return value indicates
+ whether to remove the element (if TRUE) or not (if FALSE).
+ Returns the number of elements deleted.
+
+Fri Sep 18 11:31:50 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
+
+ * glib.h
+ * gstrfuncs.c: added g_memdup implementation
+
+Fri Sep 18 18:46:14 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * glib.h:
+ * gdataset.c: make the datalists a safe type (not using a generic
+ gpointer) by expecting a GData* argument in the g_datalist functions.
+ provide g_dataset_foreach() and g_datalist_foreach() functions that
+ allow a GDataForeachFunc function to walk the data lists.
+ (g_dataset_destroy_internal): made this function truely reentrant (i.e.
+ can be called from within destroy notifiers as well).
+ the *_foreach functions are _not_ reentrant (unless all the other
+ dataset and datalist functions).
+
+Fri Sep 18 03:41:20 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * gtree.c (g_tree_new): check for key_compare_func != NULL (reported
+ by Michal Kara).
+
+Thu Sep 17 18:55:46 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
+
+ * config.h.in: removed from repository
+
+ * install-sh
+ * missing
+ * mkinstalldirs: updated to latest automake version
+
+Thu Sep 17 06:36:25 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * glib.h:
+ * gdataset.c: implemented g_datalist_* along the lines of g_dataset,
+ but operates on an opaque gpointer *datalist; pointer, e.g. for the
+ implementation of GtkObject named data.
+ we cache a certain portion of the already freed data entries now, to
+ gain a slight performance improve with data reallocation.
+
+Tue Sep 15 14:57:30 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
+
+ * Makefile.am glib-config.in l*: Update to libtool-1.2b,
+ change library versioning scheme to drop LT_RELEASE
+ from the -l line, while keeping it in the soname.
+
+Fri Sep 11 02:11:46 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * glib.h: explicitely include the prototypes for inline functions
+ to cure gcc warnings for -Wmissing-prototypes.
+
+Wed Sep 9 02:52:04 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
+
+ * configure.in: added -posix check for NeXTStep
+
+Tue Sep 8 05:04:06 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * glib.h: abandon the use of ATEXIT(), we keep the fallback
+ macros for backwards compatibility. people ought to use g_atexit().
+
+ * gutils.c (g_atexit): new function to take over the implementation
+ of ATEXIT. this function is guarranteed to succeed, similar to
+ g_malloc().
+
+Mon Sep 7 20:07:38 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
+
+ * configure.in: comment the -std1 check and save LIBS properly
+
+Mon Sep 7 07:53:21 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * configure.in: check for all three inline keywords individually.
+
+ * glib.h: inlining hassle. for compilers that don't allow the `inline'
+ keyword, mostly because of strict ANSI C compliance or dumbness, we try
+ to fall back to either `__inline__' or `__inline'.
+ we define G_CAN_INLINE, if the compiler seems to be actually *capable*
+ to do function inlining, in which case inline function bodys do make
+ sense. we also define G_INLINE_FUNC to properly export the function
+ prototypes if no inlinig can be performed. we special case most of the
+ stuff, so inline functions can have a normal implementation by defining
+ G_INLINE_FUNC to extern and G_CAN_INLINE to 1.
+
+ * ltconfig: (compiler PIC flag test): special case linux for non
+ aout systems to honour lcc's position independant code (cases
+ "linux*aout)" and "linux*)" got added). (this needs to go into
+ libtool which does an advanced test, checking for __LCC__).
+
+ * autogen.sh: take $CC=lcc into account by invoking automake with
+ --include-deps so lcc isn't scared by gcc's auto-dependancy
+ generation code. care about $ACLOCAL_FLAGS. optionally feature
+ autoheader.
+
+ * minor fixups in other places to cure some of lcc's warnings.
+
+Sun Sep 6 19:08:53 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
+
+ * configure.in: added -std1 check for ANSI compliance (from gtk)
+
+Sun Sep 6 12:31:50 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
+
+ * glib.h: provide proper ATEXIT behavior on NeXTStep by !atexit
+
+Sat Sep 5 18:03:36 1998 Tom Tromey <tromey@cygnus.com>
+
+ * gutils.c (GLIB_INLINE): Define.
+ * glib.h (GLIB_INLINE): New define.
+ (g_bit_nth_msf): Use it. Also, add prototype.
+ (g_bit_storage): Likewise.
+ (g_bit_storage): Likewise.
+
+Sat Sep 5 04:40:02 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * glib.h:
+ (g_chunk_new0): use g_mem_chunk_alloc0() to allocate the memchunk,
+ so the correct size of the memchunk is allocated with 0's and not
+ a memory portion of the size of the desired type.
+
+ * gmem.c: new function g_mem_chunk_alloc0() which will initialize
+ a memory area allocated with g_mem_chunk_alloc() with 0's.
+
+Wed Sep 2 19:13:28 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
+
+ * garray.c glib.h (g_array_[ap/pre]pend_vals): make
+ data argument const.
+
+Wed Aug 26 06:32:40 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * glib.h:
+ * gstrfuncs.c: new function g_strnfill() to return a new string
+ of specified length, filled with a specific character.
+
+Tue Sep 1 23:46:31 1998 Josh MacDonald <jmacd@axis.hip.berkeley.edu>
+
+ * testglib.c (main): Update the array tests. Reduce the number of
+ iterations for the prepend test from 10000 to 100 since it is
+ O(n^2) and was taking longer than I would like to wait.
+
+ * garray.c: I've worked on the GArray interface, mostly. It was
+ seriously broken before and I hate to do it, but this is going to
+ break some code. It is important to do this now, because more and
+ more people are starting to use glib and the interface was both
+ broken and inconsistent. First, rename the _truncate functions of
+ both the GArray and GPtrArray classes to _set_size, since this
+ function can also be used to extend the arrays. GArray now
+ accepts two more initialization arguments: clear and element_size.
+ Instead of providing the type to each access function, the array
+ now stores the element size. Clear, if set, causes the library to
+ zero element's memory as the array expands. The major broken-ness
+ here was that array->len was in bytes, not elements. Now, since
+ the array knows its element size, array->len is correct and I have
+ removed the g_array_length macro. The only macro which now
+ accepts the type as an argument is g_array_index, which casts the
+ element to the right type--this interface does not change. The
+ append and prepend functions simply need the types removed.
+ g_ptr_array_remove_index now returns the removed element.
+
+ * gprimes.c (g_spaced_primes_closest): Move this function out of
+ ghash.c and rename it from g_hash_closest_prime. Fix the primes
+ so that they are actually prime (they weren't all -- isn't that
+ nice?).
+
+Mon Aug 24 02:08:56 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * glib.h:
+ * gstring.c:
+ * gstrfuncs.c:
+ (g_vsprintf): removed this function which was not publically
+ exported in glib.h. to export it, it should have been named
+ differently in the first place, since its semantics differ from
+ vsprintf(). apart from that, it was a possible cause for
+ problems since it worked on a previously allocated memory area and
+ was used in a lot places of glib. exporting it would have been a
+ guararant for problems with threaded programs.
+ (g_printf_string_upper_bound): exported this function to return
+ a string size, guarranteed to be big enough to hold the fully
+ expanded format+args string. added 'q', 'L' and 'll' flag handling.
+ in fact, the newly allocated area is in most cases much bigger than
+ required.
+ (g_strdup_vprintf()): new function returning a newly allocated string
+ containing the contents of *format and associated args (size is
+ calculated with g_printf_string_upper_bound()).
+ (g_strdup_printf): new function which wraps g_strdup_vprintf().
+
+ * configure.in: check for va_copy() or __va_copy() alternatively.
+ check whether va_lists can be copyied by value.
+
+ * glib.h: provide a definition for G_VA_COPY.
+
+ * glib.h:
+ * gmessages.c:
+ (g_logv):
+ (g_vsnprintf):
+ pass va_lists by value, not by reference, since this causes problems
+ on platforms that implement va_list as as arrays. internaly, use
+ G_VA_COPY (new_arg, org_arg); va_end (new_arg); to produce a second
+ va_list variable, if multiple passes are required. changed all
+ callers.
+
+ * glib.h:
+ * gerror.h:
+ renamed g_debug() to g_on_error_query(), cleaned up a bit.
+ renamed g_stack_trace() to g_on_error_stack_trace() since both
+ functions cluttered different namespaces.
+ there is an appropriate comment in glib.h now that explains the
+ unix and gdb specific dependencies of both functions.
+ removed g_attach_process().
+ g_on_error_stack_trace() should probably be handled with caution,
+ i've seem several different linux versions (2.0.x) become unstable
+ after invokation of this function.
+
+1998-08-18: Elliot Lee <sopwith@redhat.com>
+
+ * In gmem.c, add the ability to exclude memory chunks from the
+ memory profiling information.
+
+Tue Aug 18 18:23:09 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
+
+ * glib.h
+ * gstrfuncs.c: added g_strndup
+
+Tue Aug 18 04:40:17 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * glib.h:
+ * gmessages.c: new function g_log_set_always_fatal() to set an
+ additional fatal_mask for log levels that are considered to be fatal
+ globally (required by gtk). since this mask is not domain-associated,
+ it is restricted to the log levels, introduced by glib itself.
+
+ * gmem.c:
+ * grel.c:
+ * gtree.c (g_tree_node_check):
+ don't use g_print() calls for informational/debugging output,
+ but log all this stuff through g_log() with G_LOG_LEVEL_INFO.
+ libraries shouldn't use printf(), g_print() or g_printerr() at all.
+
+Tue Aug 18 02:46:44 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+
+ * glib.h (__STRICT_ANSI__): if __STRICT_ANSI__ is defined, make
+ `inline' a noop, since strict ANSI rules don't permit `inline'.
+
+Mon Aug 17 15:21:42 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * grel.c: made private functions static.
+
+Sun Aug 16 23:23:46 CDT 1998 Shawn T. Amundson <amundson@gtk.org>
+
+ * gmodule/Makefile.am: added gmodule-dl.c and gmodule-dld.c to
+ EXTRA_DIST
+ * glib.spec: version = 1.1.3
+
+Mon Aug 17 01:46:14 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * glib.m4: feature an extra MODULES parameter, so glib-config can
+ be invoked with the "gmodule" argument.
+
+ * glib.h: changed the log level to G_LOG_LEVEL_CRITICAL for all
+ g_return*_if_fail statements, and made them issue a message
+ like "assertion `%s' failed".
+
+ * gmessages.c (g_logv): ugh, don't pass log_domain as NULL to
+ g_log_find_domain.
+
+Sun Aug 16 20:28:27 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * version bump to 1.1.3, binary age 0, interface age 0.
+
+ * glib.h: be nice to platforms that don't have gint64 and don't
+ issue #warning on every compilation. since glib doesn't require
+ gint64 itself, packages that need gint64 should test for this
+ themselves.
+
+ * glib.h:
+ * gutils.c: added a new function g_vsnprintf().
+
+Sun Aug 16 Elliot Lee
+
+ glib.h: #error out if we don't recognize the SIZEOF_VOID_P
+ #warning if no gint64
+
+Fri Aug 14 16:41:53 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * glib.h: added static inline functions for bit mask tests:
+ g_bit_nth_lsf, g_bit_nth_msf and g_bit_storage.
+
+Fri Aug 13 14:23:37 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * glib.h:
+ * gmessages.c:
+ revised the message handling system, which is now based on a new
+ mechanism g_log*. most of the assertment macros got adapted to
+ feature the new g_log() call with an additional specification of
+ the log level in a preprocessor macro G_LOG_DOMAIN. if G_LOG_DOMAIN
+ is undefined upon the includion of glib.h, it'll be defined with a
+ value of (NULL) and thus preserves the original bahaviour for
+ warning and error messages. the message handler setting functions
+ for g_warning, g_error and g_message are only provided for backwards
+ compatibility and might get removed somewhen.
+
+ * Makefile.am: feature the G_LOG_DOMAIN macro to set the log domain
+ to "GLib" upon compilation. we currently have to add this definition
+ to the DEFS variable.
+ * testglib.c: we need an ugly #undef G_LOG_DOMAIN at the start
+ of this file currently, since automake doesn't support per target
+ _CFLAGS yet.
+
+ * glib.h: changed some gints to gbooleans, made a few const corrections,
+ removed some superfluous G_STMT_START{}G_STMT_END wrappers, added some
+ in other required places.
+
+ * gnode.c:
+ (g_node_prepend):
+ (g_node_insert_before):
+ (g_node_insert):
+ (g_node_append_data):
+ (g_node_prepend_data):
+ (g_node_insert_data_before):
+ (g_node_insert_data):
+ (g_node_append):
+ return (node), so these macros/functions can be usefully chained with
+ g_node_new().
+
+Mon Aug 10 17:56:11 PDT 1998 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>
+
+ * glib.h: it's GTime now, and it's back!
+
+Mon Aug 10 02:17:19 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * Makefile.am: minor hack to cause SUBDIRS (gmodule) to be build
+ last. we do this by making all-recursive-am depend on all-am.
+
+Sun Aug 9 15:56:11 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * configure.in: added GModule checks. generate files in gmodule/.
+ * glib-config.in: support library specifications `glib' and `gmodule'.
+ * Makefile.am: feature the gmodule/ subdir.
+
+Wed Aug 5 10:04:29 PDT 1998 Shawn T. Amundson <amundson@gtk.org>
+
+ * Released GLib 1.1.2
+
+Wed Aug 05 01:15:36 1998 George Lebl <jirka@5z.com>
+
+ * testglib.c: fix 64-bitness in g_prints, sizeof doesn't
+ seem to return int so I cast it for printing, probably
+ just cosmetic
+
+Tue Aug 4 19:54:06 PDT 1998 Shawn T. Amundson <amundson@gkt.org>
+
+ * Released GLib 1.1.1
+
+Tue Aug 4 15:17:54 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>

+ * COPYING: include the GNU LGPL, rather than shipping an empty file.
+ * AUTHORS: listed original authors here, and added people who made
+ significant improvements to glib.
+
+ * glib.h:
+ * gutils.c: implement g_get_current_dir() which returns a newly
+ allocated string, instead of a g_getcwd() variant that operates
+ on a static buffer.
+ export glib_interface_age and glib_binary_age.
+ as a convenience, macro definitions have been added for
+ g_node_insert_data, g_node_insert_data_before, g_node_append_data and
+ g_node_prepend_data.
+
+ * testglib.c: minor cleanups, print current dir.
+
+Mon Aug 3 16:02:26 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * glib.h:

+ be partly binary compatible with GList and GSList.
+
+1998-08-03 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
+
+ * garray.c (g_ptr_array_remove_index): bugfix: index check for
+ array has been wrong.
+
+Fri Jul 31 22:17:05 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * testglib.c (g_node_test): added a GNode test.

+Mon Jul 27 00:17:30 CDT 1998 Shawn T. Amundson <amundson@gtk.org>
+
+ * Released GLib 1.1.0
+
+Mon Jul 27 01:02:27 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * glib.h: #if 0'ed out the GTime definition, until it is definitively
+ needed. #if 0'ed out the g_getcwd() version, because it is the wrong
+ implementation.
+
+Sat Jul 25 16:09:00 1998 Mark Crichton <crichton@expert.cc.purdue.edu>
+
+ * glib.h: gtime changed to g_time. gtime is used in
+ /usr/include/time.h in NetBSD, causing multiple headaches.
+ If this isn't the right way of fixing it.... ;)
+
+Thu Jul 23 00:29:14 1998 Tim Janik <timj@gtk.org>
+
+ * glib.h:
+ * gscanner.c: new functions to make a scanner scope sensitive wrt
+ symbol lookups.
+ g_scanner_scope_foreach_symbol, g_scanner_scope_lookup_symbol,
+ g_scanner_scope_remove_symbol, g_scanner_scope_add_symbol and
+ g_scanner_set_scope.
+ g_scanner_add_symbol, g_scanner_remove_symbol and

+ this is needed to provide portability with big-endian platforms (e.g.
+ try sizeof(bool) for c++ on big-endians - it's 4).

+ to malloc() a lot, but doesn't really improve
+ performance significiantly)

+
+ * gscanner.c (g_scanner_get_token_ll): fixed a bug that caused floats

+ * glib.h: Changed 'g_return_if_fail' and 'g_return_val_if_fail' to
+ not call 'g_string' but to simply stringify the
+ expression. Calling 'g_string' causes the expression to be
+ expanded which is undesired.
