| Overview of changes in GLib 2.67.1 |
| ================================== |
| |
| * Deprecate `g_time_zone_new()` in favour of `g_time_zone_new_identifier()`, |
| which makes error checking easier (#553) |
| |
| * Remove `volatile` from various public APIs, including `G_DEFINE_*`. You should |
| adjust your code to not use `volatile` for atomic variables, `GOnce` |
| variables, or mostly anything else (see |
| http://isvolatileusefulwiththreads.in/c/). (#600) |
| |
| * Support passing file handles to `gdbus` command line tool (work by |

| or skipping test suites by prefix (work by Frederic Martinsons) (!1738) |
| |
| * Fix thread-safety of `GBinding`; see the updated documentation for |
| `g_object_bind_property()` for full details — if your code uses `GBinding` |
| across threads, you should re-check it against the latest documentation, use |
| `g_binding_unbind()` rather than implicitly dropping the binding with your |
| last `g_object_unref()` call, and use `g_binding_dup_source()`/`g_binding_dup_target()` |
| instead of `g_binding_get_source()`/`g_binding_get_target()` |
| (work by Sebastian Dröge) (!1745) |

| Overview of changes in GLib 2.61.2 |
| ================================== |
| |
| * Add various new array functions (#236, #269, #373) |
| - `g_array_copy()` |
| - `g_ptr_array_copy()` |
| - `g_ptr_array_extend()` |
| - `g_ptr_array_extend_and_steal()` |
| - `g_array_binary_search()` |
| |
| * Add `g_assert_finalize_object()` helper function for writing tests (#488) |
| |
| * Rework how D-Bus connections are closed/unreffed when `g_test_dbus_down()` is |
| called. Tests which leak a `GDBusConnection` may now time out and abort, |
| rather than silently leaking. (#787) |
| |
| * Add a deprecation macro for GLib macros, and use it; third-party uses of |
| long-deprecated GLib macros may now start causing warnings. (#1060) |
| |
| * Deprecate `GTime` and `GTimeVal`, and various functions which use them. |
| Use `GDateTime` and `guint64` UNIX timestamps instead. (#1438) |
| |
| * Stop using `G_DISABLE_DEPRECATED` to allow disabling deprecation warnings; |
| third-party code should now be using |
| `GLIB_VERSION_{MIN_REQUIRED, MAX_ALLOWED}` to control symbol usage (!871) |
| |
| * Improve support for running `ninja test` when GLib is built statically (#1648) |
| |

| function (#1791) |
| |
| * Add various installed utilities’ paths to `gio-2.0.pc` (#1796) |
| |

| of GLib included in a flatpak runtime) (#1822, !985) |
| |
| * More IPv6 ‘Happy Eyeballs’ fixes in `GNetworkAddress` (!865) |
| |
| * Fix CVE-2019-12450, wide permissions of files when copying using GIO (!876) |
| |
| * Bump the Meson dependency from 0.48.0 to 0.49.2; we won’t depend on anything |
| higher than this for a while, as Debian 10 ships 0.49 (!924) |
| |
| * Various test fixes for Windows (!930, !931) |
| |
| * Initial support for Universal Windows Platform (UWP): certification, and use |
| of packaged libraries (!951) |
| |
| * Add experimental clang-cl support on Windows, allowing `g_autoptr()` support |
| on Windows (!979) |

| Overview of changes in GLib 2.61.0 |

| ================================== |
| |
| * Autotools support is gone. (!580) |

| * Tag various tests as ‘flaky’. These are no longer run routinely on our |
| upstream CI machines, and downstream packagers may want to not run them (or |
| not treat those test failures as package build failures) on their test |
| machines either. They are in the `flaky` test suite. (!579) |
| |
| * Add overlay support to g_resources_get_info(). (#1445) |
| |
| * Support defaults and locks in the keyfile GSettings backend. This will be |
| used for flatpaks. (!450) |
| |
| * Accept unquoted strings in the keyfile GSettings backend to simplify things |
| for sysadmins. (!603) |
| |
| * Update our contribution guidelines (`CONTRIBUTING.md`). (!590) |

| Overview of changes in GLib 2.59.0 |
| ================================== |
| |
| * This will be the last development release with autotools support. As our |
| Meson support has been around since 2.56.x, and was used to release tarballs |
| in 2.58.x, the next development release (2.59.1) will drop autotools as used |
| to build GLib. The macros installed for other packages to use will remain. |
| |
| * Add `G_TEST_OPTION_ISOLATE_DIRS` to redirect `XDG_*_HOME` to a temporary |
| directory for each unit test. (#538) |
| |
| * Support `Property.EmitsChangedSignal` annotations in `gdbus-codegen`. (#542) |
| |
| * Add `g_assert_cmpvariant()` API for unit tests. (#1191) |
| |
| * Hide bind mounts from GIO mount listings. (#1271) |
| |
| * Automatically realign data passed to `g_variant_new_from_bytes()` or |
| `g_variant_new_from_data()` if it is not correctly aligned. This prevents |
| misaligned accesses on architectures which don’t support them. Callers should |
| still aim to correctly align data to get higher performance. (#1342) |
| |
| * Support `ld -b binary` (on platforms which support it; i.e. Linux) to provide |
| large pre-compiled `GResource` resources with a fast compilation time. (#1489) |
| |
| * Unconditionally install GLib m4 macros, so that projects which depend on GLib |
| and which still build using autotools can continue to build even once GLib has |
| ported entirely to Meson. (#1520) |
| |
| * Various fixes to the Meson build. |
| |
| * Drop Python 2 support and require Python 3.4+. See discussion on |
| https://mail.gnome.org/archives/desktop-devel-list/2018-July/msg00004.html. |
| (!196) |
| |
| * `GHashTable` performance and memory improvements for common cases. See |
| https://hpjansson.org/blag/2018/07/24/a-hash-table-re-hash/. (!208) |
| |
| * Add flags that allow a `GApplication` to signal and replace a currently |
| running other instance of the same `GApplication`. This will be used for app |
| upgrades with flatpak. (!250) |
| |
| * Autostart xdg-desktop-portal when using the network monitor and proxy monitor |
| portal backends. (!317) |
| |
| * Add a g_task_set_name() API to allow `GTask`s to be described; useful for |
| debugging. (!384) |
| |
| * Enable FreeBSD CI on every commit for upstream GLib. (!387) |
| |
| * Various GVariant, GMarkup and GDBus fuzzing fixes, including buffer overflow |
| fixes. (!411) |
| |
| * Various fixes to eliminate thread races, found by thread sanitizer (tsan). |
| |
| * Deprecate TLS/DTLS rehandshaking, as it has been removed from the protocol in |
| TLS 1.3. (!478) |
| |
| * Support reading arguments from a file with `glib-mkenums`, which is useful |
| for long argument lists due to having deeply nested build directories, on |
| systems with a low limit on the command line length. (!489) |
| |
| * Make `g_environ_*()` case-insensitive on Windows, as the environment itself |
| is case-insensitive on Windows. (!500) |
| |
| * Add Application Layer Protocol Negotiation (ALPN) support to `GTlsConnection` |
| and `GDtlsConnection`, so that higher layer protocols can be negotiated when |
| setting up a TLS connection, without additional round trips and latency. This |
| is needed for eventual HTTP/2 support. (!520) |
| |
| * Add support for TPM keys in PEM files when loading TLS certificates. (!522) |
| |
| * Add a `GRecMutexLocker` auto-pointer wrapper for `GRecMutex`. (!528) |
| |
| * Bugs fixed: |
| - #107 The "g_key_file_get_comment" interface returns comment with unexpected new line symbol at the end |
| - #179 g_object_unref assert in debug code |

| Overview of changes in GLib 2.58.0 |
| ================================== |
| |
| * Tarball built with `ninja dist`, so if you want to build this release with |
| autotools (which is supported), you will need to re-run autogen.sh. This |
| release, and all micro releases in the 2.58.x series, support being built |
| with Meson or autotools. See: |
| https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-devel-list/2018-June/msg00012.html |
| |
| * Fix cancellation of g_subprocess_communicate_async() calls. See !266. |
| |
| * Drop support for the __int64 type, which further breaks compilation on old |
| MSVC versions (before VS2013). See #1313. |
| |
| * Expose GSettings schema directory in gio-2.0.pc as `schemasdir`. See !274. |
| |
| * Support v3 of the xdg-desktop-portal network monitor API. See !265, !279. |
| |
| * Fix G_MODULE_SUFFIX on macOS when GLib is built with Meson — it should be `so` |
| rather than `dylib`. Projects that use Meson and the `g_module_build_path()` |
| API such as glib-networking should pass `name_suffix:` to `shared_module()` to |
| ensure that plugins continue to be called libfoo.so on macOS. See !280. |
| |
| Bugs fixed: |
| !280 meson: Always set G_MODULE_SUFFIX to `so` on macOS |
| !266 subprocess: Fix communicate_cancelled signature |
| !279 Revert "Add a gnet utility" (see !265) |
| !265 Network monitor again |
| !274 gio: Provide schemas directory information in pkg-config file |
| !239 gvariant: Fix more bounds checking in GVariant text format parser |
| !195 garray: add overflow checks before expanding array |
| #1497 g_strdup_printf warns on invalid format specifier with G_GUINT64_FORMAT on Win32 |
| !270 autotools: remove support for the __int64 type. See #1313 |
| !267 ci: Add an autotools job |

| Overview of changes in GLib 2.57.3 |
| ================================== |
| |
| * G_GNUC_MALLOC’s definition has been tightened up to match an updated |
| definition from GCC. Many uses of G_GNUC_MALLOC which were previously |
| appropriate may cause miscompilation with newer GCC versions. Check your uses |
| of it against the updated documentation. See #1465. |
| |
| * Many minor documentation fixes. |
| |
| * Fix for gint64 and int64_t compatibility on macOS and BSD. See #972. |
| |
| * Fix free space metadata on some file systems (notably FAT). See #328. |
| |
| * Support installed-tests with our Meson build system. See #1444. |
| |
| * Forbid @filename@/@basename@ in glib-mkenums templates, which is a change to |
| its long-standing behaviour (which was long-standing nonsensical). See !241. |
| |
| * Various stat() fixes on Windows. See #1452, #1476. |
| |
| * MinGW-w64 ABI warning: In case you build 64 bit glib without LFS support by |
| passing --disable-largefile (not the default) and use GStatBuf, you need to |
| rebuild your application as the size of GStatBuf has changed for this case. |
| See #1476. |
| |
| * Improve TAP compatibility of g_test_incomplete(). See #1474. |
| |
| * Change fallback preferences when loading icons. See !72. |
| |
| Bugs fixed: |
| !263 build: Clean files left behind after gio/tests/gresource.c test |
| !262 gmem: Only evaluate pointer argument to g_clear_pointer() once |
| #1465 Many uses of G_GNUC_MALLOC are incorrect |
| #1448 g_error does not abort() as documented |
| #1494 g_clear_pointer may not use the correct calling convention with its callback |
| #972 Mismatch between gint64 and int64_t on 64-bit macOS/BSD |
| !251 gtestdbus: Fix watcher crash on FreeBSD |
| #1492 gcc-8: -Wcast-function-type: new warnings for g_list_copy_deep() |

| #1454 gvdb does not treat corrupt files as empty as promised; dconf suffers |
| !243 tests: Explicitly set TZ=UTC for g_time_val_from_iso8601() testing |
| #1488 ‘O_CLOEXEC’ undeclared (first use in this function) |
| !241 glib-mkenums: forbid @filename@/@basename@ in fhead and ftail |

| #1476 g_stat - possbile memory corruption causing SEGFAULT |
| !199 Update TLS documentation |
| #1474 g_test_incomplete() makes test_case_run() return FALSE |
| #1475 glib/tests/atomic.c test_types() trips -Werror=bad-function-cast on Debian armel |
| #1472 Test for BROKEN_IP_MREQ_SOURCE_STRUCT is broken on Windows / Mingw |
| !220 date test: Use g_test_skip(), not g_test_incomplete() |
| #1467 malloc difference causes refstring test to fail on FreeBSD |
| !230 gbookmarkfile: Fix some more minor leaks when metadata elements are repeated |
| #1466 Not Able to Build glib 2.57.2 in Mingw-w64 x64 bits |
| #1433 test_posix_parse: assertion failed (g_time_zone_get_abbreviation (tz, 0) == "UTC"): ("LMT" == "UTC") |
| #1446 Follow-up from "Document difference between g_assert() and g_assert_*() wrt G_DISABLE_ASSERT" |
| !206 grefstring: Avoid an unnecessary NUL assignment |
| #1458 g_volume_get_mount returns NULL value after g_volume_mount_finish is called with no error |
| !72 gio: icons should fallback to non-preferred style appropriately. |

| Overview of changes in GLib 2.49.1 |
| ================================== |
| |
| * GDesktopAppInfo now allows bus activation with dashes. This is |
| not technically allowed per the Desktop Entry specification, but |
| it happens in the wild. Rather than forcing people to go through |
| another traumatic desktop file rename, accept it and translate - to _. |

| are now supported on Solaris as well, and the Linux support no longer |
| uses prctl() but the pthread api. |

| environment variable. |
| |

| it generates. Use the --c-generate-autocleanup option to control this |

| Overview of changes in GLib 2.47.3 |
| ================================== |
| |
| The inline cleanup in the last release accidentally removed three |
| symbols from libglib-2.0.so. It is unlikely that this will have caused |
| any problems because these symbols were only backup symbols for |
| definitions exported as inlines in the header files, but ABI is ABI. |
| |
| This release corrects only this problem. |
| |
| Overview of changes in GLib 2.47.2 |
| ================================== |
| |
| * We have formalised the assumption that all compilers that are |
| interested in support 'static inline' and simplified the macros around |
| this considerably. Please watch for and report unintentional fallout. |
| |
| * New API: hardware-assisted helpers for overflow-checked integer math. |
| |
| * other fixes |

| Overview of changes in GLib 2.46.0 |
| ================================== |
| |
| * GTask no longer imposes a fixed limit on the number of tasks that |
| can be run_in_thread() simultaneously, since doing this inevitably |
| results in deadlocks in some use cases. Instead, it now has a base |
| number of threads that can be used "for free", but will gradually |
| add more threads to the pool if too much time passes without any |
| tasks completing. |
| |
| The exact behavior may continue to change in the future, and it's |
| possible that some future version of GLib may not do any |
| rate-limiting at all. As a result, you should no longer assume that |
| GTask will rate-limit tasks itself (or, by extension, that calls to |
| certain async gio methods will automatically be rate-limited for |
| you). If you have a very large number of tasks to run, and don't |
| want them to all run at once, you should rate-limit them yourself. |
| |
| * Disable runtime-deprecation warnings |
| |
| * Fix marshalling of flags on bigendian 64bit architectures |

| Overview of changes in GLib 2.45.1 |
| ================================== |
| |
| * The GSettings schema compiler, glib-compile-schemas has been changed |
| to reject schema xml that has duplicate <summary> or <description> |
| elements. Such elements typically occur when translations are merged |
| into the schema, with xml:lang attributes. This is not the correct |
| way to translate schemas. Instead keep the translations in the .mo |
| file and set the gettext-domain attribute on the <schemalist> element. |
| |
| * The file monitoring infrastructure has been rewritten, and all backends |
| have seen major improvements. |
| |
| The inotify backend is reporting events with less delay (no event will |
| be delayed more than 10ms) and wakeups due to file monitoring have been |
| significantly reduced. A CHANGES_DONE event will also be sent when new |
| files appear. |
| |
| The poll implementation is now using the thread default main context. |
| |
| The fam implmentation is now running in the worker thread. |
| |
| The fen implementation has been removed, since it was unmaintained. |
| |
| * The GSettings schema compiler, glib-compile-schemas, is more strict |
| about rejecting schemas with xml:lang style merged translations. |
| Schema translations should be done by specifying the gettext domain |
| in the xml, and keeping the translations in gettext. To avoid breaking |
| already-installed schemas, this change is only taking effect when |
| you use the --strict option. |
| |
| * The hardcoded 10-thread limit of GTask's thread pool has been removed, |
| since it was prone to causing deadlocks. The thread pool is now allowed |
| to grow dynamically and will shrink back over time. |
| |
| * GSimpleAsyncResult has been deprecated in favor of GTask. |
| |
| * The algorithm used by GAppInfo to find default handlers for mime types |
| has been tweaked to prefer apps that handle the specific subtype over |
| default handlers for a generic supertype. |
| |
| * Bug fixes: |
| 627285 inotify file monitor hardwired delay |
| 631597 Segmentation fault in append_escaped_text |

| Overview of changes in GLib 2.43.92 |
| =================================== |
| |
| GLib is now considered frozen. We do not expect any major changes |
| before the release of 2.44.0. |
| |
| * GUnixMountMonitor now properly supports multiple main contexts |
| |

| xml will build without warnings. This will probably be enabled by |
| default in the next cycle. |
| |
| * new support for HTTP proxies in GIO |
| |
| * new GTask:completed property |
| |

| effective busy state. |
| |
| There have been various other bugfixes and cleanups. |

| Overview of changes from GLib 2.39.91 to GLib 2.39.92 |
| ===================================================== |
| |
| This is a release candidate for 2.40.0. |
| |
| * g_test_run() no longer runs tests in exactly the order they are |
| registered; instead, it groups them according to test suites (ie, |
| path components) like the documentation always claimed it did. In |
| some cases, this can result in a sub-optimal ordering of tests, |
| relative to the old behavior. The fix is to change the test paths to |
| properly group together the tests that should run together. (eg, if |
| you want to run test_foo_simple(), test_bar_simple(), and |
| test_foo_using_bar() in that order, they should have test paths like |
| "/simple/foo", "/simple/bar", "/complex/foo-using-bar", not |
| "/foo/simple", "/bar/simple", "/foo/using-bar" (which would result |
| in test_foo_using_bar() running before test_bar_simple()). |
| |
| (The behavior actually changed in GLib 2.36, but it was not |
| documented at the time, since we didn't realize it mattered.) |
| |
| There are no major changes in this release, but a few serious bugs have |
| been fixed. |
| |
| * Bugs fixed: |
| 710367 Crash in g_settings_backend_dispatch_signal() |
| 723899 G_DEFINE_TYPE() causes compiler warnings with clang due to foo_get_instance_private |
| 724859 Let the test_wait_until() test also run on non-*nix |
| 724916 gio unmount code makes XFCE's Thunar crash |

| Overview of changes from GLib 2.39.90 to GLib 2.39.91 |
| ===================================================== |
| |
| This release introduces a hard dependency on present and functioning |
| clock_gettime() and CLOCK_MONOTONIC. It also introduces a dependency on |
| pthread_condattr_setclock() unless your system happens to have |
| pthread_cond_timedwait_relative_np() (as do Mac OS and Android). This |
| release is known to be broken with at least GNU/Hurd, pending addition |
| of working pthread_condattr_setclock(CLOCK_MONOTONIC) there. |
| |
| New API: g_str_to_ascii() |
| |
| * Fixed bugs: |
| 670144 unconditional use of CLOCK_MONOTONIC is broken |
| 673607 invalid assumption in g_cond_wait_until() / g_get_monotonic_time() API |

| Overview of changes from GLib 2.39.0 to GLib 2.39.1 |
| ==================================================== |
| |
| * GSettings fixes/improvements |
| |
| - GSettingsSchema API is now more powerful and consistent |
| |
| - new GSettingsSchemaKey API allows accessing metadata for keys: |
| type, default value, range and the long-awaited support for summary |
| and description |
| |
| - GSettingsSchemaSource gains support for listing schemas within a |
| source. Deprecate the global API that did this for the default |
| source. |
| |
| - 'gsettings list-schemas' now works properly with --schemadir |
| |
| - deprecate a bunch of now-redundant functionality on GSettings |
| |
| - add API to GSettings for getting the default value of a key (as set |
| by the sysadmin) |
| |
| - add API to GSettings for determining if the user has assigned a |
| particular value to a key (ie: we are not just reading the default) |
| |
| - ignore qualified tags and attributes appearing in schema files |
| |
| * Applications/Actions |
| |
| - make GSimpleAction a bit more strict with respect to state changes |
| that would violate the interface (ie: by changing the state type |
| after construction) |
| |
| - throw an error when attempting to 'Describe' a non-existent action |
| via D-Bus instead of returning a bogus description |
| |
| - throw an error when attempting to invoke unsupported methods on an |
| Application (eg: 'Open' on an app that doesn't HANDLES_OPEN) |
| instead of emitting a g_critical() in context of the app (which is |
| not itself at fault for the errant call) |
| |
| * Appinfo |
| |
| - substantially rework GDesktopAppInfo to reduce the amount of disk |
| accesses that are performed in common situations |
| |
| - add a new class: GAppInfoMonitor for discovering when applications |
| are installed/removed |
| |
| - add a new g_desktop_app_info_search() API for searching for |
| installed applications by name, keywords, etc. |
| |
| * GMarkup: add new G_MARKUP_IGNORE_QUALIFIED flag for skipping over |
| "qualified" tags and attributes (those with a colon in the name, such |
| as 'my:tag') |
| |
| * GDBus |
| |
| - ignore qualified tags, as above |
| |
| - GTestDBus: unset all D-Bus addresses (such as STARTER) to ensure |
| that test programs don't pick them up |
| |
| - add new session_bus_run() convenience in the tests and use it |
| |
| * GRand: use real random data as a seed on win32 and use the |
| timestamp/pid/uid fallback only on UNIX machines where we can't open |
| '/dev/urandom'. This may cause issues with older mingw32 releases |
| due to a missing prototype for the rand_s() API. |
| |
| * Many win32 (and particularly MSVC) portability fixes. Many |
| additional tests are now runnable when building with MSVC. |
| |
| * Due to early testing of the (soon to land) GCleanup framework, a very |
| large number of memory errors have been found and fixed (mostly in |
| the testcases, but some in glib itself). |
| |
| * GIO: |
| |
| - some more seeking cleanups: particularly on GLocalFileInputStream |
| |
| - don't leave a .trashinfo file around if trashing a file fails |
| |
| - Add a request_certificate virtual method to GTlsInteraction |
| |

| 637956 GKeyfileSettingsBackend should ignore file deletions |
| 645453 keys from base schema missing from extended schema |
| 665634 g_dbus_node_info_new_for_xml() errors on unknown attributes in XML files |
| 668232 Unable to get description and summary for a key |

| |
| Overview of changes from GLib 2.38.0 to GLib 2.39.0 |
| ==================================================== |
| |
| * prep for the 2.40 series (version macros, docs index, etc.) |
| |
| * GNotification |
| |
| - new API for sending persistent notifications via the desktop shell |
| |
| - notifications persist when the application has quit and clicking on |
| them can restart the application with an action (via |
| DBusActivatable) |
| |
| * GSubprocess |
| |
| - new API for launching subprocesses |
| |
| - nice GIO integration like async functions, cancellability, etc. |
| |
| - a convenient communicate() API inspired by the same API in Python |
| |
| - related: the gspawn API now has a CLOEXEC flag for the created |
| pipes for stdin/stdout/stderr |
| |
| * New gapplication(1) commandline tool |
| |
| - intended to be used with DBusActivatable apps |
| |
| - can be used for launching apps, opening files, invoking application |
| actions and listing apps and actions |
| |
| - bash tab completion is supported |
| |
| * GDesktopAppInfo changes: |
| |
| - g_file_get_path() can implicitly cause a FUSE mount so don't call |
| it until we know we need it (for an app that doesn't support URIs) |
| |
| - don't crash when trying to load from a keyfile with |
| DBusActivatable=true |
| |
| - remove some dead code, refactor the search path handling a bit and |
| do a large-scale whitespace cleanup (prep work for the pending |
| desktop file index) |
| |
| * File monitors |
| |
| - fix broken handling of mount point monitoring |
| |
| - remove some strange use of GObject::constructor() from the base |
| class and inotify backend |
| |
| - fix GFileMonitor to work in the non-default main context even when |
| the main context is not running (or is blocked) |
| |
| - add internal private API for easily creating a file monitor in the |
| GLib worker thread |
| |
| * GSettings |
| |
| - g_settings_list_children: only list viable schemas. This fixes a |
| longstanding issue where 'gsettings list-recursively' will crash |
| when there are invalid schemas installed |
| |
| - don't accept invalid paths on g_settings_new_with_path, etc. |
| |
| * GIO |
| |
| - GFile now has a thumbnail::is-valid attribute to check if the |
| thumbnail in thumbnail::path needs to be regenerated |
| |
| - GDBusProxy now has a flag to control autostarting of services at |
| construction time |
| |
| - for GSeekable, properly introduce the concept of "resizable" vs. |
| "fixed-sized" streams in the docs, explaining the expected |
| semantics of the interface in each case |
| |
| - fix some cases in GMemoryOutputStream that were violating the above |
| expectations (which may cause a slight API incompatibility) |
| |
| - clean up GCredentials code and add support for Hurd and Solaris |
| |
| - improve splicing by using different codepaths for the case where we |
| have real _read_async() and _write_async() implementations on the |
| stream vs. the case where they are internally emulated (via |
| dispatching the sync variant of the call in a thread) |
| |
| * GKeyFile |
| |
| - fix a leak in g_key_file_get_(u)int64 when we fail to parse the |
| value as an integer |
| |
| - add long-requested API g_key_file_save_to_file() |
| |
| * Portability improvements |
| |
| - avoid using O_DIRECTORY on platforms that don't have it |
| |
| - be careful about systems that define SOCK_CLOEXEC but don't |
| actually support it (like Hurd) |
| |
| - only use SA_RESTART if it exists |
| |
| * Other small API changes/additions |
| |
| - a pair of functions to support matching strings for the type of |
| search functionality that you'd expect to have with things like |
| GtkSearchBar. This will also be used by the desktop file index. |
| |
| - g_str_is_ascii() with obvious purpose |
| |
| - g_test_expect_message() no longer appears to allow you to catch |
| G_LOG_ERROR messages |
| |
| * GMainContext/GSource |
| |
| - fix handling of overflowing the 'next source id' counter |
| |
| - g_source_remove() will now throw a critical in the case that you |
| try to remove a non-existent source. We expect that there is some |
| code in the wild that will fall afoul of this new critical but |
| considering that we now reuse source IDs, this code is already |
| broken and should probably be fixed. |
| |
| - simplify handling of the 'current dispatching source' to not |
| require use of a linked list |
| |
| * GObject |
| |
| - the long-broken (and leaky) pattern of destroying a just-allocated |
| object from inside of a custom GObject::constructor is now |
| officially completely illegal and will abort the program |
| |
| * Unicode: update to 6.3.0 |
| |
| * Bug fixes |
| |
| - g_file_copy() now falls back to pathname queryinfo. This should |
| clear up the bugs with copying from some GVfs backends (afp, |
| gphoto, archive, at least). |
| |
| - fix an out-of-bounds read in the xdgmime code |
| |
| - fix a typo in the /org/freedesktop/DBus path on the object manager |
| client |
| |
| - skip emitting path_namespace='/' in match rules in order to |
| workaround a bug in the D-Bus daemon and fix our own implementation |
| (which shared exactly the same bug) |
| |
| - fix crashes on precondition violations for GParamSpec constructors |
| |
| - many other small fixups (see bug list) |
| |
| * Many documentation improvements |
| |
| Bugs fixed: |
| 309224 g_key_file_save_to_file missing |
| 583321 QNX: no SA_RESTART |
| 661576 fix handling of constructors that destroy half-constructed objects |

| What's new in Glib 2.38 |
| ======================== |
| |
| * Application support |
| |
| - GIO now provides an implementation of Desktop Actions from the |
| desktop entry specification |
| |
| - GApplication now implements the org.freedesktop.Application |
| interface as per the desktop entry specification, allowing for |
| standards-based D-Bus launching of GLib-based applications |
| |
| - GDesktopAppInfo now supports DBusActivatable as per the desktop |
| entry specification, allowing GLib-based applications to use D-Bus |
| to launch other applications |
| |
| - GApplication now has a "busy" flag that can be set on an application |
| to allow the shell to show that it is busy |
| |
| * GObject |
| |
| - the private offset for a given class type is now always constant. |
| This was done by reorganising the memory layout of instances so that |
| the private data comes before the "official" pointer for the object |
| (ie: at a negative offset). Valgrind macros were added to mitigate |
| any problems that this may have caused. |
| |
| - a new G_DEFINE_TYPE_WITH_PRIVATE has been added along with a |
| generated function *_get_instance_private() that can now serve as an |
| equally-performing alternative to ->priv pointers in instances |
| (allowing memory savings) |
| |
| - new G_PRIVATE_FIELD, G_PRIVATE_FIELD_P and G_PRIVATE_OFFSET macros |
| provide a convenient method of converting between named variables in |
| private structures and their (now constant) offsets |
| |
| - installing properties on a GObjectClass must now be done from |
| class_init. It is no longer valid to install them after class_init |
| has returned. |
| |
| - it is now possible to manually break a GObject property binding |
| without destroying one of the objects involved |
| |
| * Icons |
| |
| - the requirements for implementing the GIcon interface have changed |
| in order to make it possible to consume all implementations of GIcon |
| with a finite number of cases |
| |
| - a new GBytesIcon type was added for an icon represented by an |
| in-memory binary blob in a known image format (ideally png). |
| |
| - new APIs g_icon_serialize() and g_icon_deserialize() replace the old |
| to/from_string APIs and will always work, irrespective of which |
| types have been initialised in the calling process, allowing for a |
| serialised GdkPixbuf to be deserialised in a process that doesn't |
| have GdkPixbuf |
| |
| - support for icons has been added to GMenuModel using the new APIs |
| |
| * Actions and menus |
| |
| - GPropertyAction provides a convenient way of creating a stateful |
| property corresponding to a property on a GObject, such as the |
| "visible-child-name" property of a GtkStack |
| |
| - new API g_menu_remove_all() |
| |
| - we now have established rules about what is a "valid" action name |
| and an API to check them |
| |
| - a new API for converting detailed action names to and from the |
| split-out name and parameter value (as GVariant) |
| |
| - for backwards compatibility, invalid action names can still be used |
| with most functions, but this is not recommended |
| |
| * Other GIO |
| |
| - GDBus now supports services that wish to handle some of all |
| properties on an interface asynchronously, without requiring the |
| service to reimplement the entire org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties |
| interface |
| |
| - GFile now has a new _measure_disk_usage() (and async) API for |
| recursively determining the amount of disk space used by a |
| particular directory (akin to 'du'). |
| |
| - asynchronous version of g_file_trash() and g_file_make_directory() |
| have been added |
| |
| * Other new API |
| |
| - GRegex has a new function to query the maximum lookbehind length to |
| allow for regexp matching on streams |
| |
| - GVariant has two new APIs for constructing strings that allow |
| avoiding copies in some cases: g_variant_new_take_string() and |
| g_variant_new_printf() |
| |
| * Testing |
| |
| - we can now generate TAP output |
| |
| - new support functions for simplifying the process of dealing with |
| data files for srcdir != builddir and installed test cases |
| |
| - g_test_trap_subprocess() provides a portable alternative to |
| g_test_trap_fork() |
| |
| * Other |
| |
| - GLib now builds on Android against the bionic C library |

| Overview of changes fron GLib 2.35.9 to 2.36.0 |
| ============================================== |
| |
| * It is no longer necessary to call g_type_init(). If you are |
| loading GLib as a dynamic module, you should be careful to avoid |
| unloading it, then subsequently loading it again. This never |
| really worked before, but it is now explicitly undefined behavior. |
| Note that if g_type_init() was the only explicit use of a GObject |
| API and you are using linker flags such as --no-add-needed, then |
| you may have to artificially use some GObject call to keep the |
| linker from optimizing away -lgobject. We recommend to use |
| g_type_ensure (G_TYPE_OBJECT) for this purpose. |
| |
| * This release contains an incompatible change to the g_get_home_dir() |
| function. Previously, this function would effectively ignore the HOME |
| environment variable and always return the value from /etc/password. |
| As of this version, the HOME variable is used if it is set and the |
| value from /etc/passwd is only used as a fallback. |
| |
| * The 'flowinfo' and 'scope_id' fields of GInetSocketAddress |
| (introduced in GLib 2.32) have been fixed to be in host byte order |
| rather than network byte order. This is an incompatible change, but |
| the previous behavior was clearly broken, so it seems unlikely that |
| anyone was using it. |
| |
| This release contains only small bugfixes and translations updates. |
| |
| - g_file_copy(): fix bug where attributes were not applied properly to |

| Overview of changes from GLib 2.35.8 to 2.35.9 |

| Overview of changes from GLib 2.35.7 to 2.35.8 |
| ============================================== |
| |
| This release contains one major change that may cause problems: type |
| modules are now never unloaded. This is implemented by (effectively) |
| leaking the last reference on dynamic types. Some testcases that check |
| for unloading of types have been observed to be broken by this change, |
| but we know of no actual cases of "real code" breaking. Please report |
| any problems. |
| |
| Other changes: |
| * A couple of build fixes for Solaris |
| * Fix signal emission for GDBusObjectManagerClient |

| Overview of changes from GLib 2.35.2 to 2.35.3 |
| ============================================== |
| |
| * This release contains an incompatible change to the g_get_home_dir() |
| function. Previously, this function would effectively ignore the HOME |
| environment variable and always return the value from /etc/password. |
| As of this version, the HOME variable is used if it is set and the |
| value from /etc/passwd is only used as a fallback. |
| |
| * We now install a public "gnetworking.h" header that can be used to |
| include the relevant OS-dependent networking headers. This does not |
| really abstract away unix-vs-windows however; error codes, in |
| particular, are incompatible. |
| |
| * Bugs fixed in this release: |
| 142568 Allow $HOME to override passwd entry if the user really wants |

| Overview of changes from GLib 2.35.1 to 2.35.2 |
| ============================================== |
| |
| Note that the incompatible change to the ->constructed() vfunc that was |
| made in the last unstable release (2.35.1) has been reverted due to |
| causing regressions in applications. |
| |
| A new incompatible change has been introduced in this version: it is no |
| longer permitted to add interfaces to a class after the first |
| instantiation (or more strictly: after g_type_class_ref()). Bug #687659 |
| is tracking this. |
| |
| Two private symbols (g_menu_{attribute,link}_hash_iter_get_type) which |
| were accidentally exported have also been properly hidden. This may |
| cause some tools to issue warnings about ABI mismatch. |
| |
| The remaining changes should be relatively harmless: |
| |
| * GIO now has kqueue support for GFileMonitor (BSDs, Mac OS) |
| |
| * New g_variant_new_from_bytes() API |
| |
| * UNIX signal sources now allow watching SIGUSR1 and SIGUSR2 |
| |
| * Many pedantic cleanups to adhere to a higher level of -W use |
| |
| * GTask changes to avoid a deadlock |
| |
| * many cleanups/fixes for Windows |
| |
| * Boxing for GPollFD, GIOChannel, GBytes, GByteArray |
| |
| * Fix URL-encoding of trashed files |
| |
| * Many other docs and annotations fixes |

| Overview of changes from GLib 2.31.22 to 2.32.0 |
| =============================================== |
| |
| * It is no longer necessary to use g_thread_init() or to link against |
| libgthread. libglib is now always thread-enabled. Custom thread |
| system implementations are no longer supported (including errorcheck |
| mutexes). |
| |
| * The thread and synchronisation APIs have been updated. |
| GMutex and GCond can be statically allocated without explicit |
| initialisation, as can new types GRWLock and GRecMutex. The |
| GStatic_______ variants of these types have been deprecated. GPrivate |
| can also be statically allocated and has a nicer API (deprecating |
| GStaticPrivate). Finally, g_thread_create() has been replaced with a |
| substantially simplified g_thread_new(). |
| |
| * The g_once_init_enter()/_leave() functions have been replaced with |
| macros that allow for a pointer to any gsize-sized object, not just a |
| gsize*. The assertions to ensure that a pointer to a correctly-sized |
| object is being used will not work with generic pointers (ie: (void*) |
| and (gpointer) casts) which would have worked with the old version. |
| |
| * It is now mandatory to include glib.h instead of individual headers. |
| |
| * The -uninstalled variants of the pkg-config files have been dropped. |
| |
| * For a long time, gobject-2.0.pc mistakenly declared a public |
| dependency on gthread-2.0.pc (when the dependency should have been |
| private). This means that programs got away with calling |
| g_thread_init() without explicitly listing gthread-2.0.pc among their |
| dependencies. |
| |
| gthread has now been removed as a gobject dependency, which will cause |
| such programs to break. |
| |
| The fix for this problem is either to declare an explicit dependency |
| on gthread-2.0.pc (if you care about compatibility with older GLib |
| versions) or to stop calling g_thread_init(). |
| |
| * g_debug() output is no longer enabled by default. It can be enabled |
| on a per-domain basis with the G_MESSAGES_DEBUG environment variable |
| like |
| G_MESSAGES_DEBUG=domain1,domain2 |
| or |
| G_MESSAGES_DEBUG=all |

| Overview of changes from GLib 2.31.4 to 2.31.6 |
| ============================================== |
| |
| * GApplication no longer has APIs for setting menus. Those have been |
| moved to GtkApplication. |
| |
| * the GActionGroup import/export functionality has been decoupled from |
| GApplication by the introduction of a new interface for the purpose of |
| handling platform data: GRemoteActionGroup. This allows Gtk to |
| properly deal with platform data (and gdk threads) on window actions. |
| |
| * lots of documentation improvements |
| |
| * bug fixes and a huge number of memory leak fixes |
| |
| * the test suite now passes on ARM and some of the GDBus testcase hangs |
| we've been seeing have been resolved (although others could remain) |
| |
| * g_bytes_get_data() API changed: now includes 'size' out parameter |
| |
| * new g_queue_free_full() API similar to g_[s]list_free_full() |
| |
| * desktop files: use standard "Keywords" now, not "X-GNOME-Keywords" |
| |
| * gsettings commandline tool now has --schemadir option for schemas not |
| installed in the usual place (ie: as part of plugins) |
| |
| * Bugs fixed: |
| 643736 GApplication doesn't emit dbus signals on action updates |
| 657433 g_queue_free_full() missing |
| 664699 glib: documentation fixes |
| 665737 acquire/release gdk threads lock on incoming dbus |
| 665879 GBytes: add a size argument to g_bytes_get_data |
| 666113 various leaks in GLib, GIO are visible in the regression tests |
| 666115 various tests leak memory, obscuring real leaks in the library |
| 666145 Doc could be more explicite that g_thread_init calls can be droped |
| 666173 Configure warning - linux/netlink.h usability... no |
| 666296 Race condition in g_thread_xp_get_srwlock |
| 666415 Settings tools should allow specifying a schema directory |

| Overview of changes from GLib 2.31.2 to 2.31.4 |
| ============================================== |
| |
| * EXPERIMENTAL: Menu support has been added to GApplication. Menus |
| are exported on the bus, alongside the actions that are already there. |
| There have also been many related improvements to action group |
| functionality. |
| |
| These new APIs are subject to changes in the coming releases. In |
| particular, it seems somewhat likely that the APIs for registering |
| menubars may change in order to accommodate windows with different |
| types of menubars. |
| |
| * GDBusConnection previously directly dispatched destroy notifies when |
| unregistering objects if the current main context was the same context |
| the object was exported on. It now unconditionally dispatches these |
| through an idle on the context. |
| |
| * Clean up Requires in pc files. Linking against GIO no |
| longer drags in gmodule. This may require dependency |
| fixes here and there. |
| |
| * Introduce GBytes, a data type for immutable, fixed-size |
| byte sequences. This makes the pre-existing GBuffer |
| API available outside GLib |
| |
| * GDBusInterfaceSkeleton can now be exported on multiple |
| connections |
| |
| * Bugs fixed: |

| |
| * glib-mkenums: fix @ENUMPREFIX@ with /*< underscore_name=... >*/ |
| |
| * EXPERIMENTAL: introduce new GSettingsSchema and GSettingsSchemaSource |

| to introspect the contents of schemas. This API may change. |
| |
| * Improve the performance of GObject property notifies. |
| |
| * GDBus: |
| - fix a race when unowning a name immediately after owning it |
| - thread safety improvements on GDBusConnection |
| - fixes for exit-on-close functionality |
| |
| * Deprecations: |
| - add G_SIGNAL_DEPRECATED |

| |
| Overview of changes from GLib 2.29/2.30 to 2.31.0 |
| ================================================= |
| |
| This release contains a huge number of changes (500 commits worth). The |
| list below attempts to summarise, but not every change is listed. |
| |
| * Major changes to threading and synchronisation |
| - threading is now always enabled in GLib |
| - support for custom thread implementations (including our own internal |
| support for errorcheck mutexes) has been removed |
| - a whole lot of dead code (to deal with the non-threaded case) has |
| been ripped out. This includes the racy path of GMainContext that |
| caused deadlocks with respect to child process exits in |
| single-threaded programs (such as gtester). |
| - libgthread is now an empty shell and g_thread_init() is no longer |
| required (and has been deprecated) |
| - GMutex and GCond can now be statically allocated without explicit |
| initialisation. Dynamic allocation for these types is deprecated. |
| - new types GRecMutex and GRWLock can also be statically allocated |
| without explicit initialisation. |
| - GPrivate can now be statically allocated and has an improved API. |
| Dynamic allocation of GPrivate is deprecated. |
| - GStaticMutex, GStaticRecMutex, GStaticRwLock, GStaticPrivate are |
| deprecated. |
| - GCond now uses monotonic time internally and a new API takes |
| monotonic time for timed waits, deprecating the wallclock API |
| - removal of the insane macro indirection used in the previous |
| implementation of threading and synchronisation APIs |
| - use SRWLock and CONDITION_VARIABLE APIs when available on Windows |
| (Vista and later) and emulate them on XP |
| - leaks of G(Static)Private-allocated data on some cases of thread exit |
| have been fixed |
| - simplified new thread creation API with the old API deprecated. The |
| concept of joinability has disappeared (all threads are joinable) as |
| have priority levels, 'bound'ness (ie: kernel vs. userspace threads) |
| and ability to manipulate the stack size. |
| - GThread is now a refcounted type |
| - other implementation details changed |
| |
| * Move headers for some deprecated functionality to a separate |
| deprecated/ directory. |
| |
| * New support for attribute-based deprecations to issue compiler |
| warnings instead of breaking the build and/or giving warnings about |
| implicit declarations (and possibly miscompiling). |
| |
| * GCache has been deprecated (after its last use was removed from our |
| platform over a year ago). |
| |
| * It is no longer possible to include individual headers (like |
| "ghash.h") -- you must #include <glib.h>. |
| |
| * The misguided experiment of allowing the program to stumble along with |
| missing GSettings schemas is now over -- the abort is back. |
| |
| * Clarify that fork() is not valid while using GMainContext. This is |
| because the internal resources of the GMainContext end up being shared |
| by both processes. We had an assert here but it was breaking existing |
| (valid) use cases as well, so it has been removed for now. |
| |
| * GApplication |
| - add ::shutdown signal as logical dual to ::startup |
| - don't use a GMainLoop: iterate the GMainContext directly (improves |
| quit logic) |
| |
| * Several portability fixes for Windows, OpenBSD, Solaris |
| |
| * Add new GValue API to specifically deal in signed chars (in case the |
| platform defines 'char' as unsigned) |
| |
| * some new API to mitigate the problems associated with calling setenv() |
| in a multi-threaded program |
| |
| * Use CLOCK_MONOTONIC unconditionally if the libc has support at compile |
| time (ie: stop checking for kernel support at runtime). |
| |
| * pkg-config files: |
| - drop -uninstalled variants |
| - remove gobject dependency on gthread |
| |
| * New macro G_ATOMIC_LOCK_FREE is defined if the atomic operations are |
| implemented without use of a mutex. Cleaned up atomic-related |
| compilation issues with mingw compilers on win32 systems. |
| |
| * SOCKS proxy and resolver improvements |
| |
| * Fix the spelling of G_IO_FLAG_IS_WRITABLE (was WRITEABLE) and |
| introduce a macro for backwards compatibility. |
| |
| * GDBus: |
| - many code generation updates and improvements |
| - some race condition fixes, including testcase hangs |
| |
| * GVariant: |
| - new g_variant_new_from_fixed_array() API |
| - substantial docs improvements/clarifications |
| |
| * GKeyFile is now refcounted and boxed |
| |
| * mount monitoring is now based on /proc/mounts (where available) |
| instead of mtab |
| |
| * new macros G_SOURCE_CONTINUE and G_SOURCE_REMOVE for returning from |
| GSourceFunc (so you don't have to remember what TRUE and FALSE mean) |
| |
| * use xlocale functions where available to avoid too much heavy lifting |
| in functions like g_ascii_strtod() |
| |
| * GMappedFile can now be created from an fd |
| |
| * error message strings grammar/i18n fixes |
| |
| * many docs updates |
| |
| * Partial list of bugs closed: |
| 70598 Unify GStaticMutex and GMutex. |

| Overview of changes from GLib 2.29.18 to 2.29.90 |
| ================================================ |
| |
| * GObject includes a generic marshaller, g_cclosure_marshal_generic. |
| To use it, simply specify NULL as the marshaller in g_signal_new(). |
| The generic marshaller is implemented with libffi, and consequently |
| GObject depends on libffi now. |
| |
| * API/ABI changes: |
| - unix signal watches now match the API of all of the other sources |
| - revert the addition of g_date_time_source_new () from last release |
| |

| |
| * GDateTime improvements: |
| - generally improved standards compliance (with C99) |
| - support C99-specified format strings: %g, %G, %V, %c, %C, %w |
| - consult the locale for the preferred 12-hour time format (%r) |
| - drop support for non-standard %N and broken %W |
| - better support for formatting non-POSIX (eg: Arabic) numerals |
| - locale-related test case fixups, and fix some leaks |
| |
| * GTlsInteraction: add interaction method invocation guarantees |
| |
| * gdbus-codegen: post-process all interfaces when parsing >1 file |
| |

| Overview of changes from GLib 2.29.4 to 2.29.6 |
| ============================================== |
| |
| * Atomic operations have been rewritten from scratch to make use |
| of gcc builtins where possible. As a side-effect of this, calls |
| to g_atomic_ API with explicit casts may now be problematic; if |
| that happens to you, try first to remove the casts. Another |
| side-effect of the rewrite is that g_atomic_int_exchange_and_add |
| has been deprecated in favor of g_atomic_int_add. |
| |
| * A full set of atomic operations on pointers has been added, |
| including bit locks in pointer-size locations. |
| |
| * Access to quarks is now lockless |
| |
| * GObject data scalability has been greatly improved |
| |

| Overview of changes from GLib 2.29.2 to 2.29.4 |
| ============================================== |
| |
| * GDBus: |
| - Includes several new types to support modeling D-Bus |
| objects and interfaces more fully, and also introduces |
| an 'object manager' pattern: |
| GDBusInterface, GDBusObject, GDBusObjectManager |
| These interfaces have client-side implementations: |
| GDBusProxy, GDBusObjectProxy, GDBusObjectManagerClient |
| And server-side implementations: |
| GDBusInterfaceSkeleton, GDBusObjectSkeleton, GDBusObjectManagerServer |
| - The new gdbus-codegen utility uses these new classes |
| to generate C code and documentation from D-Bus interface |
| descriptions in XML |
| |
| * GTest: |
| - There is now a g_test_fail() function to mark |
| tests as failed |
| |
| * GDesktopAppInfo |
| - Now has a binding-friendly filename property |
| - Other new API to more fully expose desktop file contents: |
| g_desktop_app_info_get_categories(), |
| g_desktop_app_info_get_generic_name() |
| |
| * GHashTable: |
| - Several optimizations to reduce space consumption of |
| large hash tables, in particular tables that are used |
| to store sets. |
| |
| * Unix-specific APIs: |
| GLib now installs a separate header, glib-unix.h, that is |
| meant to collect Unix-specific APIs. For now, it contains |
| g_unix_open_pipe(), g_unix_set_fd_non_blocking() for dealing |
| with pipes and fds, as well as APIs to create mainloop |
| sources which can trigger callbacks on certain Unix |
| signals (SIGTERM, SIGHUP, SIGINT). |
| |
| * Bugs fixed: |
| 631379 GDBus nonce-tcp test failing |
| 632631 GLib-CRITICAL **: g_variant_new_string: assertion `g_utf8_validate (string, -1, NULL)' failed |
| 635694 gdbus aborting due to unauthorized socket in DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS |
| 637561 Crash when using G_DBUS_SERVER_FLAGS_RUN_IN_THREAD |
| 642935 g_date_time_format() prints wrong value for %z and timezone -0800 |
| 643134 g_dbus_message_copy |
| 644941 glib-unix: New Unix-specific API |
| 646013 g_hash_table_remove_all_nodes optimization |
| 646309 glib cannot be cross-compilled for mingw32 |
| 646435 GTimeZone doesn't seem to be thread-safe |
| 646957 GIO chained calls don't work with a thread default context |
| 647594 README link to mailing list is broken |
| 647602 Cannot connect to remote message bus via TCP |
| 647746 The GSocketService documentation is incomplete. |
| 647826 API: gtester: Add g_test_fail() |
| 647903 GDesktopAppInfo: Add g_desktop_app_info_get_categories() |
| 648416 g_app_info_create_from_commandline ignores SUPPORTS_STARTUP_NOTIFICATION |
| 648423 Support G_DEBUG=trap-warnings |
| 648425 GDesktopAppInfo: Add "filename" property for bindings |
| 648966 Update g_unichar_iswide and g_unichar_iswide_cjk |

| Overview of Changes from GLib 2.28.0 to 2.29.2 |
| ============================================== |
| |
| * GApplication |
| - The documentation has been enhanced and clarified |
| - An opt-out for uniqueness has been added: G_APPLICATION_NON_UNIQUE |
| - GApplication now syncs settings before g_application_run() returns |

| - Interface lookups are now happening in constant time |
| - Signature checking and handling of various unexpected |
| situations has been improved |

| - GVariant accepts G_VARIANT_TYPE_VARDICT for a{sv} |
| |
| * GDateTime: |
| - The return value of g_datetime_compare() has been fixed to |
| match strcmp() semantics |
| - In order to handle problems with changing timezones, a GTimeZoneMonitor |
| has been added to GIO, and g_time_zone_refresh_local() can be |
| called to update the cached information about the local timezone |
| |
| * GOption now uses /proc/self/cmdline to set the program name instead |
| and only falls back to "<unknown>" if that is unavailable |
| |
| * GSettings: |
| - The schema compiler now warns about references to non-existing schemas |
| |
| * Commandline utilities are now fully translated |
| |
| * Signals can now indicate that collecting their arguments must |

| Overview of Changes from GLib 2.27.2 to 2.27.3 |
| ============================================== |
| |
| * The GTimeSpec type that was introduced in the 2.27.2 has been |
| dropped again in favour of APIs that return microseconds as |
| 64-bit integer. |
| Affected functions: |
| g_source_get_time |
| g_periodic_unblock |
| g_get_monotonic_time |
| g_get_real_time |
| The similar GTimeVal struct is still around, but its use is |
| discouraged. |
| |
| * GTimer is now using monotonic time unconditionally |
| |
| * There are some new functions to facilitate error reporting |
| in async GIO APIs: |
| g_simple_async_result_take_error |
| g_simple_async_result_new_take_error |
| g_simple_async_report_take_gerror_in_idle |
| |
| * There is new convenience API to us GVariant dictionaries: |
| g_variant_lookup |
| |
| * It is now possible to delay sending match rules to the |
| D-Bus daemon in GDBus: |
| G_DBUS_SIGNAL_FLAGS_NO_MATCH_RULE |
| |
| * Support has been added for XDG_RUNTIME_DIR: |
| g_get_user_runtime_dir |
| |
| * Various fixes for Win64/MSVC builds have been committed |
| |
| * Bugs fixed: |
| 620263 Add g_clear_object, g_clear_pointer, g_clear_boxed |
| 633075 update Project Files and sources for MSVC 2008/C89 |
| 633381 gsettings Makefile rules should handle empty list... |
| 633685 Use g_simple_async_result_{new_,}take_error |
| 633686 Add g_simple_async_report_take_gerror_in_idle |
| |
| * Translation updates: |
| Belarusian |
| Galician |
| Hebrew |
| Punjabi |
| Spanish |
| |
| |
| Overview of Changes from GLib 2.27.1 to 2.27.2 |
| ============================================== |
| |
| * GApplication |
| - Export actions over DBus and support activating them from remote instances |
| - Support environment passing |
| |
| * GSettings |
| - The gsettings utility has a list-recursively command |
| - The gsettings utility has commandline completion for enum values |
| |
| * GLib is now linked against librt and uses monotonic time for |
| timeouts and GPeriod sources. GSource has a new g_source_get_time() |
| which returns monotonic time, and g_source_get_current_time() has |
| been deprecated |
| |
| * Bugs fixed: |
| 158725 free linked list with data |
| 626320 GVariant: Avoid locking in g_variant_get_child_value() if possible |
| 629247 add gsimpleasyncresult methods to take over a GError |
| 629274 GNetworkService does not do fallback when there is no SRV record |
| 631264 gsettings-tool choice/range support |
| 631482 g_date_time_from_instant: 1000000000000000000 |
| 632169 docs for manual use of gsettings-data-convert |
| 632571 Add equivalent to gconftool-2's -R option |
| 633115 GSettings m4 doesn't fail the build for broken schemas |
| 633206 Default g_application_local_command_line() doesn't set exit_status... |
| 633339 support more complex gapplication setups |
| 633356 Make timeout G_MAXINT mean "no timeout" |
| |
| * Translation updates: |
| Catalan (Valencian) |
| Indonesian |
| Japanese |
| |
| |
| Overview of Changes from GLib 2.27.0 to 2.27.1 |
| ============================================== |
| |
| * GDateTime now has full week number support. |
| New API: g_date_time_get_week_numbering_year |
| |
| * The GSettings schema compiler will now skip over |
| broken .xml schema files instead of aborting altogether |
| |
| * GSettings now works properly on bigendian systems |
| |
| * GSettings has more complete support for ranges |
| New API: |
| g_settings_get_range |
| g_settings_range_check |
| The gsettings commandline tool supports ranges too. |
| |
| * GApplication has been rewritten; see the API docs for details |
| and examples. The action support is not complete yet. |
| |
| * The GLib mainloop has gained 'dispatch to context' functionality, |
| which can replace manually created idles in many cases. |
| New API: |
| g_main_context_invoke |
| g_main_context_invoke_full |
| |
| * The gio-desktop-app-info-lookup extension point has been |
| removed from GIO. GIO now uses x-scheme-handler mimetypes when |
| looking for default applications. |
| |
| * On win32, make g_get_user_data_dir() return the CSIDL_LOCAL_APPDATA |
| folder on Windows, and not CSIDL_PERSONAL. This matches what Qt does, |
| and has been widely requested. Also make g_get_user_config_dir() return |
| this and not the (roaming) CSIDL_APPDATA folder. |
| |
| * A periodic event clock has been added in GIO: GPeriodic. Note that this |
| API is still experimental and expected to undergo changes before it |
| will be incorporated into a stable GLib release. Use at your own risk. |
| |
| Bug fixes: |
| 613822 gobject signal connect/disconnect not thread safe |
| 618737 "dispatch to context" functionality |
| 620710 g_get_user_data_dir() uses CSIDL_PERSONAL and not CSIDL_APPDATA |
| 623400 acquire context before dispatching |
| 627126 gsettings schema files don't get installed on FreeBSD |
| 627171 g_socket_new_from_fd() doesn't set the right protocol |
| 628876 Wrong error description |
| 628937 gracefully handle broken schemas |
| 629274 GNetworkService doesn't fallback when there is no SRV record |
| 629289 g_error() used wrong, produces core dump |
| 629687 leaks class refcount in gsocketcontrolmessage |
| 629849 GLib-CRITICAL **: g_source_get_context: assertion `!SOURCE_... |
| 629945 GDBus deadlock in g_bus_get_sync() |
| 630000 g_date_time_difference |
| 630077 GDateTime week number support |
| 630185 Allow NULL strings in g_quark_try_string() |
| 630797 docs mention non-existent g_object_dispose() |
| 630968 gschema-compile problems on power g5 |
| 631263 GSettings needs range/choice APIs |
| 631264 gsettings-tool choice/range support |
| 631379 GDBus nonce-tcp test failing |
| 631410 Port gapplookupgconf.c to using x-scheme-handler/ |

| Overview of Changes from GLib 2.25.12 to GLib 2.25.13 |
| ===================================================== |
| |
| +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ |
| | WARNING: There have been no breaks in API or ABI. Weird, eh? | |
| +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ |
| |
| The primary purpose of this release is to fix a serious problem with |
| glib 2.25.12: glibconfig.h (as generated on a Fedora amd64 system) was |
| being distributed in the tarball. It was being used to build some parts |
| of glib on other systems (eg: 32bit ones). This was causing some very |
| serious problems. |
| |
| There have been many other improvements, however: |
| |
| Build and testing: |
| - vastly improved test coverage |
| - old tests moved to the gtester framework |
| - gtester Makefile modified so that the tests only run once |
| - cleanup of how we handle includes while building glib |
| |
| GVariant: |
| - add a g_return_if_fail (utf8) to g_variant_new_string() |
| |
| GDBus: |
| - perform extra sanity checks when serialising messages |
| - add API to query and set the byteorder of a GDBusMessage |
| - improve debug output, add some extra options |
| - if exiting due to the bus disconnecting us, print an error message |
| explaining why |
| - sort property names correctly |
| - don't bother sending RemoveMatch when we will close the connection |
| anyway |
| - use effective uid/gid for credential passing |
| |
| GSettings: |
| - add G_SETTINGS_BIND_INVERT_BOOLEAN for inverting boolean bindings |
| without mapping functions |
| - mark all strings in the schema compiler for translation |
| |
| Binding: |
| - improve closure support for bindings |
| - copy GSettings INVERT_BOOLEAN flag |
| |
| Other: |
| - fix another complicated GCancellable deadlock possibility |
| |
| Bugs closed: |
| 599590 glib build doesn't look for correct pkg-config |

| Overview of Changes from GLib 2.25.11 to GLib 2.25.12 |
| ===================================================== |
| |
| +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ |
| | WARNING: There have been many API changes in GDBus -- sending | |
| | messages, subscribing to signals, closing connections and | |
| | registering subtrees are affected. The ABI for GSettingsBackend | |
| | has also been changed. For both reasons, a new dconf release is | |
| | required (and will be along soon). | |
| +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ |
| |
| Build: |
| - cleanup automake setup |
| - rename configure.in to configure.ac |
| - various docs fixups |
| - move glibconfig.h to glib/ |
| - disable dtrace support on Mac OS (which has incompatible 'dtrace') |
| |
| GSettings: |
| - add support for vendor override files (to change the default values |
| in a schema) |
| - change GSettingsBackend vtable |
| - add g_settings_reset() |
| - support binding to G_TYPE_STRV properties |
| |
| GDBus: |
| - many bug fixes, including a serialisation fix |
| - stop handling incoming connections as soon as stop() is called |
| - proper support for file descriptor passing |
| - new flags parameter for sending messages |
| - new flags parameter for subscribing to signals |
| - always reset the message serial when sending a message unless |
| G_DBUS_SEND_MESSAGE_FLAGS_PRESERVE_SERIAL is given |
| - constness fixes for introspection structures |
| - clean ups to subtree registration API |
| |
| Other: |
| - fix divide by zero bug in g_malloc_n functions |
| - GIO: don't blindly assume that SOCK_CLOEXEC is supported |
| - make GObject property notify freezes threadsafe |
| - GIO: clean up credentials passing |
| - GApplication: make default-quit not apply if register=FALSE |
| - GIO: add annotations for gobject-introspection |
| |
| Bugs closed: |

| Overview of Changes from GLib 2.25.10 to GLib 2.25.11 |
| ===================================================== |
| |
| +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ |
| | WARNING: There have been minor API changes in GDBus and GVariant. | |
| | These API changes will not affect many users, but they do require | |
| | a new version of GTK+ to be installed. | |
| +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ |
| |
| Build: |
| - add a --disable-Bsymbolic configure flag to disable linking with |
| -Bsymbolic-functions |
| - this release sees the complete removal of the old 'g*alias' hacks |
| - honour the NOCONFIGURE environment variable from autogen.sh |
| - use proper feature test macros for isnan |
| - use pkg-config to check for zlib |
| - add ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS to Makefile.am |
| |
| GDBus: |
| - hide Class and instance structures for all GDBus types except |
| GDBusProxy. This breaks API by preventing subclassing, but probably |
| nobody was doing that. |
| - add new GDBusConnection call to support flushing all pending |
| outgoing messages |
| - change the register_object API to add a reference to the |
| GDBusInterfaceInfo object so the caller need not keep it alive |
| themselves |
| - don't rewrite the serial number when sending messages that already |
| have a serial number |
| - better error checking for DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS environment |
| variable |
| - switch to g_parse_debug_string for G_DBUS_DEBUG and add a lot of new |
| flags |
| - add support for temporarily freezing a freshly created |
| GDBusConnection. Do this until after the ::new-connection signal |
| has finished running on GDBus services. |
| - never require non-closed connections (the user is incapable of doing |
| this due to the obvious race) |
| - remove weird/misleading redundant check on NameOwnerChanged signal |
| - emit GDBusProxy::g-properties-changed on NameOwnerChanged |
| |
| GVariant: |
| - the 'g_variant_{new,get}_byte_array' APIs have been removed |
| - g_variant_{new,get,dup}_bytestring has been added, with different |
| arguments and different behaviour |
| - g_variant_{new,get,dup}_bytestring_array has been added, doing |
| essentially the same thing as the 'strv' functions, but with byte |
| strings instead of utf8 strings |
| - G_VARIANT_TYPE_BYTESTRING ('ay'), BYTESTRING_ARRAY ('aay') and |
| STRING_ARRAY ('as') constants have been added |
| - the undocumented behaviour that g_variant_get_strv() deserialised |
| arrays of object paths or signature strings has been dropped |
| - additional varargs support for converting bytestrings or bytestring |
| arrays with ^ay ^aay ^&ay and ^a&ay |
| - improved gobject-introspection annotation |
| - fix a problem with GBuffer calling g_slice_free for the wrong type |
| - fix leaks in the type inferencing code of the parser |
| |
| GSettings: |
| - improved documentation |
| - updated schema XML DTD, now xincluded into the docs |
| - added support for schemas that extend other schemas (using the |
| 'extends=' attribute). Values of keys in the base schema can be |
| overridden using <override>. |
| - added theoretical support for lists (using the 'list-of=' attribute) |
| - lots of new tests |
| - add support for flags (implemented similarly to enums) |
| - add support for generating .enums.xml files to gsettings.m4: |
| gsettings_ENUM_NAMESPACE = org.example.myapp |
| gsettings_ENUM_FILES = ../path/to/*.h |
| will generate org.example.myapp.enums.xml with mappings for all |
| enums and flags in the specified .h files. |
| - warn with g_message() if the 'memory' backend is used by default |
| (ie: because no other GSettings backends are installed) |
| - fix get_property() for GSettings::schema |
| - command line tool: fix a bug that prevented non-basic values from |
| being set due to a premature free |
| - command line tool: bash completion support |
| - chain up in _finalize |
| - add a new g_settings_get_mapped API to read settings that require |
| post-processing |
| - retry with the translated or schema default value if the |
| GSettingsBindGetMapping function fails |
| - schema compiler: never fail due to empty schema directories (but |
| warn) |
| - peek rather than ref/unref the GEnumClass in the mapping function |
| - schema compiler: compile *.enums.xml before *.gschemas.xml to ensure |
| that we have all the enums that the schemas may reference |
| - schema compiler: improve accuracy of line numbers in error reports |
| - fix crashes in the keyfile backend caused by invalid group names in |
| the keyfile |
| |
| Other: |
| - always intern GBinding prop names |
| - base64: remove asserts preventing conversion of empty strings |
| - document NULL special-cases for GValueArray |
| - GNode docs improvements |
| - improve detection of 'system internal' mounts |
| - fix leaks in the inotify GFileMonitor implementation |
| - annotate all custom GIO GSources to improve debugging (e.g. using |
| SystemTap) |
| |

| Overview of Changes from GLib 2.25.9 to GLib 2.25.10 |
| ==================================================== |
| |
| +----------------------------------------------------------------+ |
| | WARNING: There have been API changes in GDBus. Users of these | |
| | APIs will need to be adapted. In particular, a new release of | |
| | dconf is required to go along with this one. There has also | |

| Please be on the watch for portability issues and report them to us. |
| - many test cases have been moved to the GTester framework |
| - lcov support has been added for tests |
| - many windows fixes |
| |
| * Bugs fixed: |

| Overview of Changes from GLib 2.25.8 to GLib 2.25.9 |
| =================================================== |
| |
| +----------------------------------------------------------------+ |
| | WARNING: There have been API changes in GDBus, GSettings and | |
| | GApplication. Users of these APIs will need to be adapted. In | |
| | particular, a new release of GTK+ is required to go along with | |
| | this one. | |
| +----------------------------------------------------------------+ |
| |
| * GDBus |
| - Use Gio's default async implementation |
| - Fix proxy construction for objects with no properties |
| - Fix error handling in synchronous initialization |
| - Do not dispatch calls to unregistered objects |
| - Add _with_closures alternative functions |
| - Allow constructing GDBusProxy with well-known names |
| - Remove GType parameters from GDBusProxy constructors |
| - Nuke g_bus_watch_proxy API |
| - Add --xml to gdbus-tool to print raw introspected XML |
| |
| * GSettings |
| - schema file format change: store (default, options) in gvdb |
| - Add g_settings_sync() |
| - Add support for enums and ranges |
| - 'context' support has been replaced by direct use of |
| GSettingsBackend |
| |
| * GApplication |
| - Switch to using variants for timestamps |
| - Use GInitable |
| |
| * GObject |
| - Introduce g_object_notify_by_pspec |
| - Add GBinding |
| - The GVariant gtype G_TYPE_VARIANT was changed from boxed |
| to fundamental. We believe there were no existing users |
| of the boxed type, so this should not cause any applications |
| to break. |
| |
| * Test framework |
| - Add package and version to the test report XML |
| - Use optparse to parse gtester-report commandline |
| - Add subunit support to gtester-report |
| - Prevent division by zero if no tests |
| |
| * Bugs fixed: |
| 621782 Crash using gbinding |

| 620953 tiny docs addition |
| 618904 Lies in gunixmounts documentation |
| 621702 Correctly initialize GError |
| 611778 minor cleanup of gtester-report |
| 621213 GDBusProxy and well-known names |
| 621034 Rewrite apps test to ensure children are killed |
| 620954 gapplication gvariant simplifications |
| 611869 add subunit out feature to gtester-report |
| 621119 GDBusProxy and objects with no properties |
| 620990 Use Gio's default async implementation again |
| 620952 g_application_register_with_data is an ugly API |
| 621252 GSettings leaks context |
| 618715 fork() in GSettings test cases is problematic 618715 |
| 621905 Assume a ref when doing async work |
| 621266 GSettings "context" clarification |

| Overview of Changes from GLib 2.24.0 to GLib 2.25.0 |
| =================================================== |
| |
| * The GSettings framework has been merged. This provides the API to |
| replace GConf. DConf will provide a backend implementation for it. |
| GConf will also provide a backend implementation to ease the |
| transition. We provide utilities to assist with schema conversion |
| and data migration, as well as a porting guide. |

| Overview of Changes from GLib 2.23.6 to GLib 2.24.0 |
| =================================================== |
| |
| * It is now allowed to call g_thread_init(NULL) multiple times, and |
| to call glib functions before g_thread_init(NULL) is called |
| (although the later is mainly a change in docs as this worked before |
| too). See the GThread reference documentation for the details. |
| |
| * GObject now links to GThread and threads are enabled automatically |
| when g_type_init() is called. |
| |
| * GObject no longer allows to call g_object_set() on construct-only properties |
| while an object is being initialized. If this behavior is needed, setting a |
| custom constructor that just chains up will re-enable this functionality. |
| |
| * GMappedFile on an empty file now returns NULL for the contents instead of |
| returning an empty string. The documentation specifically states that code |
| may not rely on nul-termination here so any breakage caused by this change |
| is a bug in application code. |
| |
| * Bug fixes: |
| 613601 buglet in dup_close_on_exec_fd |
| 584284 g_data_input_stream_read_until_async behaves confusingly |
| 613748 Write errors in middle of copy cause hang |

| * New API addition: g_malloc_n() and friends used to implement an |
| overflow-safe family of g_new() macros. |
| |
| * GVariant: |
| - GVariantBuilder and GVariantIter are now merged. |
| - The variable arguments API is now merged. |
| - The parser will be in a future release. |
| |
| * GIO: |
| - Remove GUtf8InputStream (which never appeared in a stable release) |
| for now since it doesn't satisfy the needs of its main intended use |
| case. We hope to reimplement this feature in a better form in a |
| future release. |
| |
| * Bugs fixed: |
| 609531 missing licence headers |

| * We are now using gcc builtins for atomic operations when available |
| |
| * g_assert() grew the ability to store assertions in core dumps |
| |
| * GIO supports lazy loading of GIO modules, and there is a new |
| gio-querymodule utility that goes along with this. |
| Packagers will need to adapt to this. |
| |
| * Threading changes: |
| - The requirements for g_thread_init() have been relaxed slightly, |

| Overview of Changes from GLib 2.22.x to GLib 2.23.0 |
| =================================================== |
| |
| * GIO: |
| - GConverter: a generic interface for stateful conversions of data, |
| suitable for charset conversion, compression, decompression, regexp |
| replacement. Concrete implementations are GCharsetConverter, |
| GZlibCompressor and GZlibDecompressor. GConverterInputStream, |
| GConverterOutputStream are stream implementations that convert data |
| while loading or saving it. |
| - GMounts can now have a 'default location': a path that reflects |
| the main entry point for the user (e.g. the home directory). |
| - As a consequence of the compression support, GIO depends on zlib now. |
| |
| * GObject: |
| - G_IMPLEMENT_INTERFACE_DYNAMIC: a convenience macro for adding |
| interfaces to dynamic types. |
| |
| * GModule: |
| - The -pthread flag has been added to all gmodule .pc files, because |
| it is not generally permissible to load modules that are linked |
| against libpthread if the program has not been compiled with threading |
| support. |
| |
| * Bugs fixed: |
| 601637 GUnixFDMessage should contain a GUnixFDList |

| Overview of Changes from GLib 2.19.9 to GLib 2.20.0 |
| =================================================== |
| |
| * The functions for launching applications (e.g. g_app_info_launch() + |
| friends) now passes a FUSE file:// URI if possible (requires gvfs |
| with the FUSE daemon to be running and operational). With gvfs 2.26, |
| FUSE file:// URIs will be mapped back to gio URIs in the GFile |
| constructors. The intent of this change is to better integrate |
| POSIX-only applications, see bug #528670 for the rationale. The |
| only user-visible change is when an application needs to examine an |
| URI passed to it (e.g. as a positional parameter). Instead of |
| looking at the given URI, the application will now need to look at |
| the result of g_file_get_uri() after having constructed a GFile |
| object with the given URI. |
| |
| * Base64 support: Avoid integer overflows. CVE-2008-4316 |
| |
| * Bugs fixed: |
| 574019 GChecksum: document and guarantee hex characters in lower case |
| 573454 Unable copy/move files to directories symlinked to gvfs share |

| Overview of Changes from GLib 2.18.1 to GLib 2.19.0 |
| =================================================== |
| |
| * Rewrite GHashTable to use open addressing with quadratic probing instead |
| of chaining. This has the potential to reduce memory fragmentation |
| significantly, while being slightly faster due to better locality and |
| no need to call alloc/free functions for nodes. Benchmarks suggest it |
| also uses less memory overall. |
| |
| * Make g_poll available as public api |
| |
| * New macros g_assert_error and g_assert_no_error to assert |
| that a GError is set or unset |
| |
| * g_cancellable_make_pollfd: New method to make a GPollFD for a cancellable |
| |
| * g_app_info_can_delete, g_app_info_delete, g_app_info_reset_type_associations: |
| New functions to clean up app infos and content types |
| |
| * When launching applications, always pass fuse file:// uris when possible, |
| and let gio convert such uris back to gio uris. |
| |
| * Bugs fixed: |
| 505361 gunixinputstream.c assumes poll() available |

| Overview of Changes from GLib 2.17.7 to GLib 2.18.0 |
| =================================================== |
| |
| * The recommended way of using GLib has always been to only include the |
| toplevel headers glib.h, glib-object.h and gio.h. GLib enforces this by |
| generating an error when individual headers are directly included. |
| To help with the transition, the enforcement is not turned on by |
| default for GLib headers (it is turned on for GObject and GIO). |
| To turn it on, define the preprocessor symbol G_DISABLE_SINGLE_INCLUDES. |
| |
| * Win32: |

| Major new features: |
| |
| * GIO: a VFS API, designed to replace GnomeVFS. The GIO implementation |
| in GLib has support for local filesystems. The new, separate gvfs |
| module contains various backend implementations (cifs, ftp, sftp, |
| http, ...) |
| |
| * GChecksum: provides various hash algorithms, such as MD5, SHA-1 |
| and SHA-256 |
| |
| * GTest: a test framework |
| |

| get the stack of open elements |
| - G_MARKUP_PREFIX_ERROR_POSITION: New flag to improve error |
| reporting |
| - g_markup_collect_attributes: Convenience function for handling |
| attributes |

| * GKeyFile: |
| - Functions that take a GError now return a boolean to indicate |
| success, instead of void |
| - Various performance improvements |
| |
| * GAsyncQueue: |
| - g_async_queue_new_full: new function that allows to specify |
| a free function for leftover elements |
| |
| * GError: |
| - g_prefix_error and g_propagate_prefixed_error: New functions |
| to ease error propagation |
| |
| * Internationalization: |

| * Translation updates (bg,en_GB,et,gl,gu,he,hi,ka,nb,nl,nn, |
| or,pt_BR,ro,tr,vi,zh_CN) |
| |
| |
| Overview of Changes from GLib 2.10.0 to GLib 2.10.1 |
| =================================================== |
| |
| * Bugs fixed: |
| 314794 Broken pthread detection on Darwin [Gregor Riepl] |
| 322476 Missing check for .dylib [Vladimir Panov] |
| 333651 Inconsistent _g_charset_get_aliases prototype [Julio |
| M. Merino Vidal] |
| 333761 GInitiallyUnowned breaks application code [Sven Herzberg] |
| |
| * Win32 changes: |
| - Fix g_listenv() implementation. |
| - Allow up to 100 GPrivate structs |
| |
| * Translation updates (fr,hu,lt,pl,sv) |
| |
| |
| Overview of Changes from GLib 2.9.6 to GLib 2.10.0 |
| ================================================== |
| |
| * The functions g_snprintf() and g_vsnprintf() have been removed from |
| the gprintf.h header, since they are already declared in glib.h. This |
| doesn't break documented use of gprintf.h, but people have been known |
| to include gprintf.h without including glib.h. |
| |
| * The Unicode support has been updated to Unicode 4.1. This adds several |
| new members to the GUnicodeBreakType enumeration. |
| |
| * The support for Solaris threads has been retired. Solaris has provided |
| POSIX threads for long enough now to have them available on every |
| Solaris platform. |
| |
| * 'make check' has been changed to validate translations by calling |
| msgfmt with the -c option. As a result, it may fail on systems with |
| older gettext implementations (GNU gettext < 0.14.1, or Solaris gettext). |
| 'make check' will also fail on systems where the C compiler does not |
| support ELF visibility attributes. |
| |
| * The GMemChunk API has been deprecated in favour of a new 'slice |
| allocator'. See the g_slice documentation for more details. |
| |
| * A new type, GInitiallyUnowned, has been introduced, which is |
| intended to serve as a common implementation of the 'floating reference' |
| concept that is e.g. used by GtkObject. Note that changing the |
| inheritance hierarchy of a type can cause problems for language |
| bindings and other code which needs to work closely with the type |
| system. Therefore, switching to GInitiallyUnowned should be done |
| carefully. g_object_compat_control() has been added to GLib 2.8.5 |
| to help with the transition. |
| |
| * Bugs fixed: |
| 328997 64bit pointer trunction in glib slab-allocator |
| [Pascal Hofstee] |
| 331110 g_cond_broadcast(inform_cond) without holding |
| inform_mutex [Chris Wilson, Sebastian Wilhelmi] |

| ================================================= |
| |
| * Memory management: |
| Runtime debugging support: The slice allocator |
| can be turned off by setting G_SLICE=always-malloc |
| in the environment. Zeroing of freed memory can |
| now be turned on at runtime by setting |
| G_DEBUG=gc-friendly in the environment. [Tim Janik] |
| |
| * Bugs fixed: |
| 328253 HP-UX/IA-64 uses ".so" as default shared library |
| extension [Albert Chin] |
| 143380 unicode-encoding test fails converting to UTF-16 |
| with libiconv [Marc Moorcroft] |

| ================================================= |
| |
| * Type system: |
| Fix a problem with g_object_compat_control() which |
| can lead to segfaults in GTK+ applications on 64bit |
| platforms. |
| |
| * Thread suppport: |
| Unused threads now fall back to the global pool after |
| 500 milliseconds, where they wait for another |
| max-idle-time milliseconds. [Sebastian Wilhelmi] |
| |
| * Fix a memory allocation problem in GKeyFile. [Morten |
| Welinder] |
| |
| |
| Overview of Changes from GLib 2.9.2 to GLib 2.9.3 |

| a nonrecursive, threaded one [Maurizio Monge] |
| |
| * Change g_filename_display_name and |
| g_filename_display_basename to use the Unicode |
| replacement character U+FFFD instead of a question |
| mark, and don't append "(invalid encoding)" [Matthias] |
| |
| * Documentation improvements [Sven Herzberg, Federico |

| Overview of Changes from GLib 2.9.0 to GLib 2.9.1 |
| ================================================= |
| |
| * Memory management |
| - The slice allocator is implemented [Tim Janik] |
| - g_slice_free_chain() has been renamed to |
| g_slice_free_chain_with_offset() [Tim, Behdad Esfahbod] |
| - Mem chunks are deprecated [Matthias Clasen] |
| |
| * Data structures |
| - Hash tables are refcounted, and have a boxed type [Tim] |
| |
| * Thread support |
| - Support for Solaris threads has been removed |
| [Sebastian Wilhelmi, Andrew Paprocki] |
| - g_async_queue_sort(), g_async_queue_push_sorted() have |
| been added to allow GAsyncQueue to be used as a priority |
| queue, together with the corresponding _unlocked |
| variants [Martyn Russell] |
| |
| * GObject: |
| - The concept of a floating initial reference has been |
| moved from GtkObject to GObject [Tim] |
| |
| * Win32 changes: |
| - Make g_rename() replace existing files [Tor Lillqvist] |
| |
| * Misc new API: |
| - G_GUINT64_CONSTANT macro to define guint64 |
| constants [Andrew Paprocki] |
| - G_GNUC_WARN_UNUSED_RESULT macro to instruct the |
| compiler to emit a warning if the value returned |
| by a function is ignored. [Arjan van de Ven, Alex Larsson] |
| - GList and GSList now have sort functions which take an |
| extra user data argument [Martyn Russell] |
| - g_param_spec_ref_sink() has been added for consistency [Tim] |
| |
| * $LOGNAME is respected when determining user data. [Laszlo Peter] |
| |

| Christian Persch, Benedikt Meurer, Andrew Paprocki, |
| Kazuki Iwamoto, Alexis S. L. Carvalho, Stanislav Brabec, |
| Andreas Schwab, Kalle Vahlman] |
| |

| - The slice allocator has been documented [Matthias, Tim] |
| - Other improvements [Morten Welinder] |
| |
| Overview of Changes from GLib 2.8.x to GLib 2.9.0 |
| ================================================= |
| * Unicode support: |
| - The Unicode tables have been updated to Unicode 4.1, |
| adding several new values to the GUnicodeBreakType |
| enumeration. This breaks Pango <= 1.10 |
| [Behdad Esfahbod] |
| - The various Unicode character predicate functions |
| (g_unichar_isalpha, g_unichar_isdigit,...) have |
| been optimized |
| [Behdad] |
| - g_utf8_pointer_to_offset, g_utf8_offset_to_pointer: |
| These functions handle negative offsets now, and |
| going backwards in g_utf8_offset_to_pointer uses |
| "stutter stepping". |
| [Larry Ewing, Matthias Clasen] |
| |
| * Memory management: |
| - Mem chunks are no longer used internally in GLib and |
| GObject. GMemChunk will be deprecated in GLib 2.10 |
| - All APIs based on GAllocator (g_list_push/pop_allocator, |
| and similar push/pop_allocator functions for other |
| data structures) have been deprecated, since they |
| never worked as intended. |
| - The g_slice_* functions have been added as a |
| new API for fast allocation of small memory blocks. |
| The implementation in GLib 2.9.0 is just a simple |
| wrapper around malloc. GLib 2.10 will have an |
| efficient and scalable implementation. |
| [Tim Janik, Matthias] |
| |
| * Pattern matching: |
| - g_pattern_match has been optimized to avoid |
| unnecessary recursion. |
| [Tim, Matthias] |
| |
| * g_intern_string, g_intern_static_string: |
| - New functions to intern strings. These are now used |
| by GObject to avoid duplicating static strings |
| [Matthias] |
| |
| * g_thread_foreach: |
| - New function to iterate over all GThreads |
| [Tim, Matthias] |
| |
| * g_date_set_time_t, g_date_set_time_val: |
| - New functions to set a GDate from a time_t or |
| GTimeVal value. g_date_set_time has been deprecated |
| in favor of these. |
| [Roger Leigh] |
| |
| * g_snprintf and g_vsnprintf: |
| - These functions are no longer declared in gprintf.h, |
| since they are in glib.h |
| [Matthias] |

| |
| Overview of Changes from GLib 2.4.x to GLib 2.6.0 |
| ================================================= |
| |
| * GLib 2.6 introduces the concept of 'GLib filename encoding', which is the |
| on-disk encoding on Unix, but UTF-8 on Windows. All GLib functions |
| returning or accepting pathnames have been changed to expect |
| filenames in this encoding, and the common POSIX functions dealing |
| with pathnames have been wrapped. These wrappers are declared in the |
| header <glib/gstdio.h> which must be included explicitly; it is not |
| included through <glib.h>. |
| |
| On current (NT-based) Windows versions, where the on-disk file names |
| are Unicode, these wrappers use the wide-character API in the C |
| library. Thus applications can handle file names containing any |
| Unicode characters through GLib's own API and its POSIX wrappers, |
| not just file names restricted to characters in the system codepage. |
| |
| To keep binary compatibility with applications compiled against |
| older versions of GLib, the Windows DLL still provides entry points |
| with the old semantics using the old names, and applications |
| compiled against GLib 2.6 will actually use new names for the |
| functions. This is transparent to the programmer. |
| |
| When compiling against GLib 2.6, applications intended to be |
| portable to Windows must take the UTF-8 file name encoding into |
| consideration, and use the gstdio wrappers to access files whose |
| names have been constructed from strings returned from GLib. |
| |
| * Likewise, g_get_user_name() and g_get_real_name() have been changed |
| to return UTF-8 on Windows, while keeping the old semantics for |
| applications compiled against older versions of GLib. |
| |
| * The GLib uses an '_' prefix to indicate private symbols that |
| must not be used by applications. On some platforms, symbols beginning |
| with prefixes such as _g will be exported from the library, on others not. |
| In no case can applications use these private symbols. In addition to that, |
| GLib+ 2.6 makes several symbols private which were not in any installed |
| header files and were never intended to be exported. |
| |
| * To reduce code size and improve efficiency, GLib, when compiled |
| with the GNU toolchain, has separate internal and external entry |
| points for exported functions. The internal names, which begin with |
| IA__, may be seen when debugging a GLib program. |
| |
| * On Windows, GLib no longer opens a console window when printing |
| warning messages if stdout or stderr are invalid, as they are in |
| "Windows subsystem" (GUI) applications. Simply redirect stdout or |
| stderr if you need to see them. |
| |
| * The child watch functionality tends to reveal a bug in many |
| thread implementations (in particular the older LinuxThreads |
| implementation on Linux) where it's not possible to call waitpid() |
| for a child created in a different thread. For this reason, for |
| maximum portability, you should structure your code to fork all |
| child processes that you want to wait for from the main thread. |
| |
| * A problem was recently discovered with g_signal_connect_object(); |
| it doesn't actually disconnect the signal handler once the object being |
| connected to dies, just disables it. See the API docs for the function |
| for further details and the correct workaround that will continue to |
| work with future versions of GLib. |
| |
| * Major new APIs |
| - GOption, a commandline option parser |
| - GKeyFile, a parser/editor for the .ini like files |
| - Functions to support the XDG basedir specification |
| - Wrappers for common POSIX pathname functions to handle filename |
| encodings consistently. On Windows, these use UTF-8. |
| |
| * Miscellaneous new functions |
| - g_filename_display_name() converts filenames in displayable UTF-8 strings |
| - g_uri_list_extract_uris() splits uri lists |
| - g_date_get_iso8601_week_of_year() gets ISO 8601 week numbers |
| - g_log_set_default_handler() installs an alternate default log handler |
| - g_get_language_names() obtains a list of applicable locale names |
| - g_strv_length() calculates the length of NULL-terminated string arrays |
| - g_win32_get_windows_version() determines the Windows version |
| - G_GNUC_INTERNAL marks functions as non-exported |
| - glib_check_version() checks the GLib version at runtime |
| - g_debug() completes the family of logging functions |
| |
| * Performance improvements |
| - Optimize g_utf8_validate() |
| - Optimize g_markup_parse_context_parse() |
| - Reduce signal connection complexity from O(n) to O(1) |
| - Get rid of many PLT entries for internally used exported symbols |
| - Reduce code size by removing literal strings from g_return_if_fail() |
| |
| * Other changes |
| - On Windows, GLib functions that take file name arguments now require |
| those to be in UTF-8. Functions that return file names return UTF-8. |
| - Use higher precision for mathematical constants |
| - Don't convert to/from UTF-8 in g_filename_to_uri/g_filename_from_uri |
| - Support ll as printf format modifier for long long on all platforms |
| - Clean up the ABI and enforce the list of exported symbols |
| - Add a .pc file for using gmodule in libraries |
| - Require ngettext |

| and shell quoting/unquoting functions. [Havoc] |
| * Split glib.h into many headers. [Sebastian] |
| * Added a simple callback-based parser for XML-like files (GMarkup). [Havoc] |
| * Fixed confusions between comparison functions that return <0, 0, >0 |
| and equaility functions that return FALSE,TRUE. [Sebastian] |
| * Added safe/portable temporary file manipulation functions. [Tor] |
| * autoconf improvements. [Raja] |
| * Many documentation improvements. |
| * Bug fixes. |
| |
| GObject: |
| |
