Important notes
---------------
User visible incompatible changes
---------------------------------
Date Modules Changes
2010-03-18 pty This module now only declares the pty.h header.
Use the new modules 'forkpty' or 'openpty' to
get the functions that were previously provided.
2010-03-05 exit This module is deprecated, use 'stdlib' directly
instead. It will be removed 2011-01-01.
2009-12-13 sublist The module does not define functions any more that
call xalloc_die() in out-of-memory situations. Use
module 'xsublist' and include file "gl_xsublist.h"
instead.
2009-12-13 list The module does not define functions any more that
call xalloc_die() in out-of-memory situations.
Use module 'xlist' and include file "gl_xlist.h"
instead.
2009-12-13 oset The module does not define functions any more that
call xalloc_die() in out-of-memory situations.
Use module 'xoset' and include file "gl_xoset.h"
instead.
2009-12-10 * Most source code files have been converted to
indentation by spaces (rather than tabs). Patches
of gnulib source code needs to be updated.
2009-12-09 link-warning The Makefile rules that use $(LINK_WARNING_H) now
must contain an explicit dependency on
$(LINK_WARNING_H).
2009-11-12 getgroups These functions now use a signature of gid_t,
getugroups rather than GETGROUPS_T. This probably has no
effect except on very old platforms.
2009-11-04 tempname The gen_tempname function takes an additional
'suffixlen' argument. You can safely pass 0.
2009-11-04 nproc The num_processors function now takes an argument.
2009-11-02 inet_pton The use of this module now requires linking with
$(INET_PTON_LIB).
2009-11-02 inet_ntop The use of this module now requires linking with
$(INET_NTOP_LIB).
2009-10-10 utimens The use of this module now requires linking with
$(LIB_CLOCK_GETTIME).
2009-09-16 canonicalize-lgpl
The include file is changed from "canonicalize.h"
to <stdlib.h>.
2009-09-04 link-follow The macro LINK_FOLLOWS_SYMLINK is now tri-state,
rather than only defined to 1.
2009-09-03 openat The include files are standardized to POSIX 2008.
For openat, include <fcntl.h>; for
fchmodat, fstatat, and mkdirat, include
<sys/stat.h>; for fchownat and unlinkat,
include <unistd.h>. For all other
functions provided by this module,
continue to include "openat.h".
2009-08-30 striconveh The functions mem_cd_iconveh and str_cd_iconveh
now take an 'iconveh_t *' argument instead of three
iconv_t arguments.
2009-08-23 tempname The gen_tempname function takes an additional
'flags' argument. You can safely pass 0.
2009-08-12 getopt This module is deprecated. Please choose among
getopt-posix and getopt-gnu. getopt-gnu provides
"long options" and "options with optional
arguments", getopt-posix doesn't.
2009-06-25 fpurge The include file is changed from "fpurge.h" to
<stdio.h>.
2009-04-26 modules/uniconv/u8-conv-from-enc
modules/uniconv/u16-conv-from-enc
modules/uniconv/u32-conv-from-enc
The calling convention of the functions
u*_conv_from_encoding is changed.
2009-04-26 modules/uniconv/u8-conv-to-enc
modules/uniconv/u16-conv-to-enc
modules/uniconv/u32-conv-to-enc
The calling convention of the functions
u*_conv_to_encoding is changed.
2009-04-24 maintainer-makefile
The maint.mk file was copied from
coreutils, and the old
coverage/gettext/indent rules were
re-added. If you used 'make syntax-check'
this will add several new checks. If some
new check is annoying, add the name of the
checks to 'local-checks-to-skip' in your
cfg.mk.
2009-04-01 visibility Renamed to lib-symbol-visibility.
2009-04-01 ld-version-script Renamed to lib-symbol-versions.
2009-03-20 close The substituted variable LIB_CLOSE is removed.
2009-03-05 filevercmp Move hidden files up in ordering.
2009-01-22 c-strtod This function no longer calls xalloc_die(). If
c-strtold you want to exit the program in case of out-of-
memory, the calling function needs to arrange
for it, like this:
errno = 0;
val = c_strtod (...);
if (val == 0 && errno == ENOMEM)
xalloc_die ();
2009-01-17 relocatable-prog In the Makefile.am or Makefile.in, you now also
need to set RELOCATABLE_STRIP = :.
2008-12-22 getaddrinfo When using this module, you now need to link with
canon-host $(GETADDRINFO_LIB).
2008-12-21 mbiter The header files "mbiter.h", "mbuiter.h",
mbuiter "mbfile.h" can now be included without checking
mbfile HAVE_MBRTOWC. The macro HAVE_MBRTOWC will no
longer be defined by these modules in a year. If
you want to continue to use it, you need to invoke
AC_FUNC_MBRTOWC yourself.
2008-11-11 warnings This module subsumes the file m4/warning.m4 which
was removed.
2008-10-20 lstat The include file is changed from "lstat.h" to
<sys/stat.h>.
2008-10-20 getaddrinfo The include file is changed from "getaddrinfo.h"
to <netdb.h>.
2008-10-19 isnanf The include file is changed from "isnanf.h" to
<math.h>.
isnand The include file is changed from "isnand.h" to
<math.h>.
isnanl The include file is changed from "isnanl.h" to
<math.h>.
2008-10-18 lchmod The include file is changed from "lchmod.h" to
<sys/stat.h>.
2008-10-18 dirfd The include file is changed from "dirfd.h" to
<dirent.h>.
2008-10-18 euidaccess The include file is changed from "euidaccess.h"
to <unistd.h>.
2008-10-18 getdomainname The include file is changed from "getdomainname.h"
to <unistd.h>.
2008-09-28 sockets When using this module, you now need to link with
$(LIBSOCKET).
2008-09-24 sys_select The limitation on `select', introduced 2008-09-23,
was removed. sys_select now includes a select
wrapper for Winsock. The wrapper expects socket
and file descriptors to be compatible as arranged
by the sys_socket on MinGW.
2008-09-23 sys_socket Under Windows (MinGW), the module now adds
wrappers around Winsock functions, so that
socket descriptors are now compatible with
file descriptors. In general, this change
will simply improve your code's portability
between POSIX platforms and Windows. In
particular, you will be able to use ioctl and
close instead of ioctlsocket and closesocket,
and test errno instead of WSAGetLastError ().
On the other hand, you have to audit your code to
remove usage of these Winsock-specific functions.
This change does not remove the need to call
the gl_sockets_startup function from the sockets
gnulib module. Also, for now select is disabled
when you include the sys_socket module; while
the functionality will be restored soon, for
efficiency it is suggested to use the poll system
poll system call and gnulib module instead.
2008-09-13 EOVERFLOW The module is removed. Use module errno instead.
2008-09-01 filename The module does not define the function
concatenated_filename any more. To get an
equivalent function, use function
xconcatenated_filename from module
'xconcat-filename'.
2008-08-31 havelib On Solaris, when searching for 64-bit mode
libraries the directory $prefix/lib is now ignored.
Instead the directory $prefix/lib/64 is searched.
You may need to create a symbolic link for
$prefix/lib/64 if you have 64-bit libraries
installed in $prefix/lib.
2008-08-19 strverscmp The include file is changed from "strverscmp.h"
to <string.h>.
2008-08-14 lock The include file is changed from "lock.h"
to "glthread/lock.h".
tls The include file is changed from "tls.h"
to "glthread/tls.h".
2008-07-17 c-stack The module now requires the addition of
$(LIBCSTACK) or $(LTLIBCSTACK) in Makefile.am,
since it may depend on linking with libsigsegv.
2008-07-07 isnanf-nolibm The include file is changed from "isnanf.h"
to "isnanf-nolibm.h".
isnand-nolibm The include file is changed from "isnand.h"
to "isnand-nolibm.h".
2008-06-10 execute The execute function takes an additional termsigp
argument. Passing termsigp = NULL is ok.
wait-process The wait_subprocess function takes an additional
termsigp argument. Passing termsigp = NULL is ok.
2008-05-10 linebreak The module is split into several modules unilbrk/*.
The include file is changed from "linebreak.h" to
"unilbrk.h". Two functions are renamed:
mbs_possible_linebreaks -> ulc_possible_linebreaks
mbs_width_linebreaks -> ulc_width_linebreaks
2008-04-28 rpmatch The include file is now <stdlib.h>.
2008-04-28 inet_ntop The include file is changed from "inet_ntop.h"
to <arpa/inet.h>.
2008-04-28 inet_pton The include file is changed from "inet_pton.h"
to <arpa/inet.h>.
2008-03-06 freadahead The return value's computation has changed. It
now increases by 1 after ungetc.
2008-01-26 isnan-nolibm The module name is changed from isnan-nolibm to
isnand-nolibm. The include file is changed from
"isnan.h" to "isnand.h". The function that it
defines is changed from isnan() to isnand().
2008-01-14 strcasestr This module now replaces worst-case inefficient
implementations; clients that use controlled
needles and thus do not care about worst-case
efficiency should use the new strcasestr-simple
module instead for smaller code size.
2008-01-09 alloca-opt Now defines HAVE_ALLOCA_H only when the system
supplies an <alloca.h>. Gnulib-using code is now
expected to include <alloca.h> unconditionally.
Non-gnulib-using code can continue to include
<alloca.h> only if HAVE_ALLOCA_H is defined.
2008-01-08 memmem This module now replaces worst-case inefficient
implementations; clients that use controlled
needles and thus do not care about worst-case
efficiency should use the new memmem-simple
module instead for smaller code size.
2007-12-24 setenv The include file is changed from "setenv.h" to
<stdlib.h>. Also, the unsetenv function is no
longer declared in this module; use the 'unsetenv'
module if you need it.
2007-12-03 getpagesize The include file is changed from "getpagesize.h"
to <unistd.h>.
2007-12-03 strcase The include file is changed from <string.h> to
<strings.h>.
2007-10-07 most modules The license for most modules has changed from
GPLv2+ to GPLv3+, and from LGPLv2+ to LGPLv3+.
A few modules are still under LGPLv2+; see the
module description for the applicable license.
2007-09-01 linebreak "linebreak.h" no longer declares the functions
locale_charset, uc_width, u{8,16,32}_width. Use
"uniwidth.h" to get these functions declared.
2007-08-28 areadlink-with-size
Renamed from mreadlink-with-size.
Function renamed: mreadlink_with_size ->
areadlink_with_size.
2007-08-22 getdelim, getline
The include file is changed from "getdelim.h"
and "getline.h" to the POSIX 200x <stdio.h>.
2007-08-18 idcache Now provides prototypes in "idcache.h".
2007-08-10 xstrtol The STRTOL_FATAL_ERROR macro is removed.
Use the new xstrtol_fatal function instead.
2007-08-04 human The function human_options no longer reports an
error to standard error; that is now the
caller's responsibility. It returns an
error code of type enum strtol_error
instead of the integer option value, and stores
the option value via a new int * argument.
xstrtol The first two arguments of STRTOL_FATAL_ERROR
are now an option name and option argument
instead of an option argument and a type string,
STRTOL_FAIL_WARN is removed.
2007-07-14 gpl, lgpl New Texinfo versions with no sectioning commands.
2007-07-10 version-etc Output now mentions GPLv3+, not GPLv2+. Use
gnulib-tool --local-dir to override this.
2007-07-07 wcwidth The include file is changed from "wcwidth.h" to
<wchar.h>.
2007-07-02 gpl, lgpl Renamed to gpl-2.0 and lgpl-2.1 respectively.
(There is also a new module gpl-3.0.)
2007-06-16 lchown The include file is changed from "lchown.h" to
<unistd.h>.
2007-06-09 xallocsa Renamed to xmalloca. The include file "xallocsa.h"
was remamed to "xmalloca.h". The function was
renamed:
xallocsa -> xmalloca
2007-06-09 allocsa Renamed to malloca. The include file "allocsa.h"
was remamed to "malloca.h". The function-like
macros were renamed:
allocsa -> malloca
freesa -> freea
2007-05-20 utimens Renamed futimens to gl_futimens, to avoid
conflict with the glibc-2.6-introduced function
that has a different signature.
2007-05-01 sigprocmask The module now depends on signal, so replace
#include "sigprocmask.h"
with
#include <signal.h>
2007-04-06 gettext The macro HAVE_LONG_DOUBLE is no longer set.
You can replace all its uses with 1, i.e. assume
'long double' as a type exists.
