2000-04-19  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* glib.h (G_TRYLOCK): Made the debugging G_TRYLOCK call also work
	for compilers with funnt G_STMT_(START|END) macros.

	* tests/thread-test.c: Implemented a check for that.

	* gutils.c (g_getenv): Changed the win32 part of this function to
	be thread safe and to make the returned environment string
	persistent to match the UN*X behavior. This is again a response to
	Bug #8983.

	* glib.h (G_LOCK_NAME): Removed parentheses around the lock name,
	as that seems to cause problems for some compilers and really
	isn't necessary.

Wed Apr 19 08:32:32 2000  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

        * gscanner.c (g_scanner_new): make sure that
        scanner->config->cset_skip_characters is "" instead of NULL, so we
        don't segfault further on.

2000-04-18  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* glib.h, glist.h, gslist.h: Changed the 'data' parameters from
	gpointer to gconstpointer for the functions
	g_(list|slist)_(remove|find|find_custom|index), as they do not
	change this parameter. This fixes bug #4836.

	* glib.h: Changed comment for g_getenv to reflect, that the
	returned memory must not be freed. Fixes bug #8983.

2000-04-17  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* configure.in, acconfig.h: Add configure test for garbage
	collector friendliness for GLib. If enabled, ENABLE_GC_FRIENDLY
	will be defined.

	* garray.c, ghash.c, glist.c, gmain.c, gmem.c, gnode.c, gqueue.c,
	gslist.c, gtree.c: If ENABLE_GC_FRIENDLY is defined, NULLify all
	memory released by the user, but cached by GLib. This lets a
	garbage collector have a more correct view of the actually used
	memory.
	
	* garray.c, glib.h: Added g_(array|ptr_array|byte_array)_sized_new
	functions, that reserve a certain amount of memeory for the array
	at creation time to avoid reallocation. Fixes bug #6707 from
	Charles Kerr <ckerr@osserver1.nssl.noaa.gov>.

	* glib.h, gqueue.c, tests/queue-test.c (main): Renamed
	g_queue_create to g_queue_new in conformance to all other GLib
	data types.

2000-04-07  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* grand.c (g_rand_new): Fixed bug. Thanks to Marko Kreen
	<marko@l-t.ee> for reporting that.

2000-03-26  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* README.win32: Tell about using the mingw-based gcc, which is
	much easier than modifying the cygwin gcc to product mingw code
	for the msvcrt runtime.

	* makefile.cygwin.in (WIN32APIHEADERS): Kludge to make it work
	with a "pure" mingw gcc, too.

2000-03-24  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* garray.c: Made GArray behave correctly. Now zero_terminated
	really means, that the element array->data[array->len] exists and
	is zeroed, and clear means that any unassigned elements obtained
	through g_array_set_size (the only way to get unassigned elements
	AFAICT) are zeroed. Added some macros to make the code more
	obvoius. Also made GPtrArray zero elements after
	g_ptr_array_set_size. This is done in a portbale way (assignment
	of NULL instead of just memsetting it to zero), though that might
	be more portability than we actually want.

	* Makefile.am, gthread/Makefile.am, gmodule/Makefile.am,
	tests/Makefile.am: Added various win32 related *.in files to
	EXTRA_DIST to let 'make distcheck' procude all the corresponding
	files, which it silently fails to do currently.

2000-03-23  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* configure.in: After finding the right thread library (containing
	e.g. pthread_create) we now search for the right realtime library
	(containing e.g. sched_get_priority_max). Makes the output of the
	thread related libraries correct. 

	* gtimer.c (g_usleep): The current implementation of g_usleep
	(simply calling select) doesn't work reliable for multi-threaded
	programs on some platforms (bad omen for the main loop....), so I
	changed the implementation for thread-using programs to wait for a
	GCond for the specified amount of time (NB: sleep and usleep are
	not MT-safe in general, because they often use signals).

Wed Mar 22 16:49:57 2000  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* gmem.c (g_mem_chunk_area_compare): Fix indentation.

2000-03-22 Elliot Lee <sopwith@redhat.com>

	* gmem.c (g_mem_chunk_area_compare): Fix 64-bitness bug in
	comparing two pointers more than 4G apart.

2000-03-22  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* gutils.c: Move Win32-only includes after inclusion of glib.h, so
	that G_OS_WIN32 is defined.

	* glibconfig.h.win32.in: Add GSystemThread.

2000-03-22  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* gutils.c (g_get_current_dir): Ok, Marcus Brinkmann
	<Marcus.Brinkmann@ruhr-uni-bochum.de> convinced me, that 128 KB
	path length might not be enough for the HURD. So I changed the
	loop to at least avoid an integer overflow, which could happen at
	beyond 2GB size ;-)

	* configure.in: Test for sched_yield as the native yield function
	first. Corrected typo g_thread_sleep -> g_usleep. Corrected
	message for the pthread_create test. Negative Priorities are
	allowed (and used on Solaris), so consider
	sched_get_priority_min failed only if it returns -1, not <0. Check
	for sched_get_priority_min also in -lrt, if not found in -lpthread
	alone and add -lrt to G_THREAD_LIBS then. Remove special case
	handling of priorities for older solaris versions and posix
	threads. Thanks to Wan-Teh Chang <wtc@netscape.com> for suggesting
	some of those changes.
	
	* config.guess, config.sub, ltconfig, ltmain.sh:
	Upgrade to libtool 1.3.4.

2000-03-21  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* glib.h, configure.in, gutils.h: always define G_GNUC_EXTENSION,
	even when not needed by GLib. That's actually also the way, the
	GLib reference manual describes that macro. Therefore I had to
	remove the lonesome #include <glibconfig.h> in gutils.c, which
	doesn't seem to be needed there however. This change should make
	Ben Gertzfield <che@debian.org> happy.

	* gutils.c: Furthermore two warnings in gutils.c were voided,
	which crept in due to my last change.

	* gutils.c (g_get_current_dir): Allocate only up to 128KB for a
	pathname. While this is an arbitrary value just like 2048, it
	seems to be enough (after all, even 4GB is an arbitrary value).

2000-03-20  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* gmain.c (g_main_poll): Warn in case of an error during the call
	to poll(2). Closes Bug#7564 as reported by David Helder
	<dhelder@umich.edu>.

	* gutils.c (g_get_current_dir): Make g_get_current_dir work on
	systems with unlimited pathname length like the HURD (It worked
	there before, but only for pathes shorter than 2048). Closes
	Bug#4525 as reported by Marcus Brinkmann
	<Marcus.Brinkmann@ruhr-uni-bochum.de>.

2000-03-17  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* giounix.c (g_io_unix_write, g_io_unix_read): Interpret EINTR as
	G_IO_ERROR_AGAIN.

2000-03-17  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* configure.in: Added the missing POSIX_NO_YIELD and
	POSIX_NO_PRIORITIES warning messages.

	* configure.in: Use AC_TRY_RUN instead of AC_TRY_LINK, to test for
	real thread support. On solaris pthread_create can be linked to
	even in -lc, but it doesn't work then.

	* configure.in: Don't use priorities for threads, when the
	minimal/maximal priorities couldn't be determined at configure
	time.
	
	* configure.in, gthread.c: Always define GSystemThread in
	glibconfig.h to represent a system thread.

	* configure.in: Do not use native recursive threads, when
	possibe. We use some features, that they do not expose (namely the
	depth counter).

	* glib.h, gthread.c: Redefined GStaticRecMutex. The functions are
	now implemented in a different way, which should be way
	faster. Alsothere are now functions g_static_rec_mutex_unlock_full
	and g_static_rec_mutex_lock_full to leave/enter a recursive mutex
	completly.

	* gthread.c (g_thread_self): Do not test the system_thread to be
	non-zero to speed things up.
	
	* gthread.c (g_mutex_init): Therefore set the system_thread of the
	main thread here.

	* tests/thread-test.c: Rerun all tests once again, but this time
	we fool the system into thinking, that the available thread system
	is not native, but userprovided.
	
2000-03-13  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* gqueue.c (g_queue_push_tail_link, g_queue_push_head_link): We
	want the next and prev pointer of the inserted link to be NULL.

2000-03-06  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* configure.in: Another small change to the pthread_.. search
	pattern. Should work *now* for AIX.

2000-03-04  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* gwin32.c (g_win32_error_message): New function that returns the
	message string for a Win32 error code.

	* glib.h: Declare it.

	* glib.def: Export it, plus g_node_copy.

2000-03-03  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* configure.in: Make the search for pthread_attr_... prototypes
	find names at the start of a line also, like it is on AIX. Thanks
	to Valdis Kletnieks <Valdis.Kletnieks@vt.edu> for the info.

Wed Mar  1 10:39:39 2000  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* gslist.c (g_slist_reverse): minor optimization.

	* testglib.c (g_node_test): added a couple of tests for
	g_node_copy().

	* glib.h:
	* gnode.c (g_node_copy): new function to copy subtrees,
	supplied by dbsears@ix.netcom.com.
	changed iterator to walk the children list backwards, so
	we get down from O(n^2) to O(n).

	* gnode.c (g_node_first_sibling): applied patch from
	dbsears@ix.netcom.com to optimize access if node->parent
	is present.

	* gutils.c (g_get_any_init): backed out HAVE_PW_GECOS check around
	assignment of g_real_name, sicne HAVE_PW_GECOS is never defined and
	thus breaks the original code.

	* merged changes from 1.2.7.

Fri Jan 28 11:37:41 2000  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

        Bug #4156 - Changes vaguely modelled after Scott Gifford's patch

        * gtimer.c (g_timer_elapsed): Never report negative times -
        clip times to 0.

        * gmain.c (g_timeout_prepare): Guard against unexpected
        clock shifts by never setting a timeout of more than
        data->interval msecs.

2000-02-27  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* glib.def: Add new functions.

2000-02-23  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* README.win32: Add a missing step to the setup instructions for
	gcc-2.95.2. Thanks to Arnaud Charlet.

	* glib.def: Add missing entry point.

2000-02-18  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* configure.in: Changed GCC version test to also accept major
	versions > 2. Thanks to Ben Gertzfield <che@debian.org> for
	pointing this out.

Thu Feb 17 12:53:44 2000  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

        * gstring.c: changed g_str_hash() to a 31 bit version based on
	a submission by Karl Nelson and hand optimized ad absurdum by
	various people ;)

	* gstring.c: applied patch from havoc for new gstring functions,
	added some more sanity checks, coding style fixups.

2000-02-13  Havoc Pennington  <hp@pobox.com>

	* tests/string-test.c (main): Add tests for the new GString 
	features

	* testglib.c (main): Add tests for the new GString features

	* gstring.c (g_string_insert_len): New function; insert 
	a given length of string at a given position. 
	(g_string_append): reimplement in terms of g_string_insert_len
	(g_string_append_len): new function
	(g_string_insert_c): accept -1 for "pos" arg to mean "append"
	(g_string_append_c): reimplement in terms of g_string_insert_c
	(g_string_prepend): reimplement in terms of g_string_insert_len
	(g_string_prepend_len): new function
	(g_string_prepend_c): reimplement in terms of g_string_insert_c
	(g_string_insert): reimplement in terms of g_string_insert_len

	* glib.h: Declare g_string_insert_len, g_string_append_len,
	g_string_prepend_len
	
Sun Feb 13 08:16:47 2000  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* configure.in: wtf??? someone destroyed the configure.in, reverting to
	an older version from Feb 4 which apears to still work.

2000-02-07  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* gmodule.rc.in gthread.rc.in: Move to corresponding subdirectories.

	* Makefile.am
	* gmodule/Makefile.am
	* gthread/Makefile.am: Change accordingly.
	
	* makefile.cygwin: Corresponding changes, some cleanup.

2000-02-05  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* glib.rc.in gmodule.rc.in gthread.rc.in: New files, for putting
	version info in the DLLs on Win32.

	* Makefile.am: Generate corresponding *.rc files and distribute
	them.

	* makefile.cygwin.in: Add rules to automatically bump a "build
	number" in the version info in the rc files each time the DLL is
	built. But do this only for the person who releases binaries. If
	others build the DLLs, the build number is set to zero.

Fri Feb  4 19:36:05 2000  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* glib.h: 
	* gdataset.c: return stolen data from g_datalist_id_remove_no_notify()
	and g_dataset_id_remove_no_notify() to avoid second lookup for common
	use.

2000-02-01  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* glib.h
	* gstrfuncs.c (g_filename_to_utf8, g_filename_from_utf8): New
	functions for conversion between UTF-8 and the encoding expected
	by C runtime functions like open() and stat(), and returned by
	readdir().

	Implement them on Win32 where we use the system "ANSI" codepage,
	which might be single-byte or double-byte. On Unix, just skip the
	issue for now and provide dummy implementations that return a copy
	of the argument.

	* README.win32
	* build-dll
	* glib.def: Minor updates.

Wed Jan 26 05:24:38 2000  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* glib.h:
	* gmain.c: s/current_time/dispatch_time/ for the dispatch() handlers.
	refetch the current time after invocation of poll() to cover up for
	the time spent in that function call.

Fri Jan 21 10:18:24 2000  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* glib.h (G_N_ELEMENTS): Added G_N_ELEMENTS macro to determine
	the number of elements in an array.

Sun Jan  9 13:28:36 2000  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* gstrfuncs.c (g_strtod): correctly fetch the current locale,
	fix from owen.

1999-12-16  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* gmodule/gmodule-win32.c: Use FormatMessage to translate system
	error codes into textual messages.

1999-11-25  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* glib.h (G_TRYLOCK): This of course should return TRUE in a
	program with a thread-disabled GLib.

1999-11-18  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* glib.def: g_strjoin was missing.

1999-11-16  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* acconfig.h, config.h.win32.in, configure.in: Renamed
	GLIB_SIZEOF_PTHREAD_T to GLIB_SIZEOF_SYSTEM_THREAD to reflect
	changed meaning.

	* configure.in: Cope with systems, that have a pthread_t type,
	that is not a pointer. Hint from Karl Nelson
	<kenelson@ece.ucdavis.edu>. Define GLIB_SIZEOF_SYSTEM_THREAD to 4
	for Solaris. Cope with systems, that have no default mutex
	initialize, like obviously most DCE systems.

	* glib.h, gthread.c: Changed the prototype of thread_create and
	thread_self to return the system thread into provided memory
	instead of a return value. This is necessary, as HPUX has a
	pthread_t, that is bigger than the biggest integral type there.

	* gthread.c: system_thread is no longer a pointer, but an memory
	area of size GLIB_SIZEOF_SYSTEM_THREAD. Changed the
	zeroinitialization and the tests for zeroness accordingly.

1999-11-09  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* configure.in: Create docs/glib-config.1 from
	docs/glib-config.1.in. Makes 'make distcheck' happy (and me too).

	* glib-config.1: Removed from CVS, as it is a generated file.

1999-11-08  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

        * configure.in: Make the test for getpwuid_r work on newer AIX
        versions, too. Still works on Solaris and Linux. Patch from Craig
        Rodrigues <rodrigc@mediaone.net>.

1999-11-08  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* gwin32.c (g_win32_getlocale): Look at env vars LC_ALL, LC_CTYPE
	and LANG first. Some refinements to the sublanguage logic.

1999-11-04  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* makefile.{cygwin,msc}.in: Add gwin32 object. Add rule to make .i
	(preprocessed source) files.

1999-11-01  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* glib.h
	* glib.def: Rename Win32-only functions from gwin_* to g_win32_*
	to match the GLib naming conventions.

	* gutils.c
	* gwin32.c
	* testglib.c
	* Makefile.am: Move the Win32-only functions to the new
	file gwin32.c

1999-10-31  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* gutils.c (gwin_getlocale): New Win32-specific function, returns
	a Unixish current locale string (en, zh_TW etc).

	* glib.h: Declare it.

	* glib.def: Export it.

	* testglib.c: Test it.

	* gmessages.c (Win32: ensure_stdout_valid): Some improvements,
	make sure we don't call AllocConsole several times, which I think
	has happened.

Sun Oct 31 18:55:01 1999  ape@spacetec.no  (Asbjorn Pettersen)

	* gcache.c (g_cache_remove): Test if node is NULL.
	If not tested, GIMP's script-fu will crash. 

Sun Oct 17 18:11:40 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

        * gdataset.c (g_data_set_internal): remove g_dataset_global_lock around
        destroy() notification here as well.

1999-10-15  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

        * gdataset.c (g_datalist_clear_i): Avoid Freezing, when g_datalist
        is called recursivly. Reported by Ola Andersson <rand@ling.umu.se>.

Tue Oct 12 14:17:12 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* glib.h: removed useless g_string(x) macro that cluttered the namespace
	and was just a poor wrapper around the cpp '#' symbol, use #x if you
	need to work around this.
	added new macro G_STRINGIFY(arg) that will convert arg to a string,
	no matter whether it contains macros or not.

1999-10-12  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* config.h.win32.in: Define the new GLIB_SIZEOF_* constants here,
	too.

	* glib.h: Small Win32 comments improvement.

Tue Oct 12 12:16:12 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* gmessages.c (g_printf_string_upper_bound): completly new implementation
	for printf string upper bounds calculation.
	we handle all glibc 2.1 format specifiers now, except for positional
	parameters (%nn$...) and wide char strings, plus some obscure upper
	case variants of the standard conversions. this fixes a lot of
	bugs in the old code, i.e.
	- NULL format strings
	- floats with exponents >+24
	- %G
	- precision specifications in general
	- negative field widths
	- %p for SIZEOF_VOID_P > 4 platforms
	we now issue warnigns in places where the old code would have
	caused buffer overruns anyways. warnings are suppressed when invoked
	from glogv(), to avoid infinite recursions if someone passes a log
	message that comes with really obscure format specifications.

Tue Oct 12 11:49:00 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* gstrfuncs.c: nuked old g_printf_string_upper_bound() version.

Tue Oct 12 03:34:40 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* glib.h: added GFloatIEEE754 and GDoubleIEEE754 unions to access sign,
	mantissa and exponent of IEEE floats and doubles (required by the new
	version of g_printf_string_upper_bound). the unions are endian specific,
	we handle G_LITTLE_ENDIAN and G_BIG_ENDIAN as of currently. ieee floats
	and doubles are supported (used for storage) by at least intel, ppc and
	sparc, reference:
        http://twister.ou.edu/workshop.docs/common-tools/numerical_comp_guide/ncg_math.doc.html
	
Mon Oct 11 18:01:49 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* configure.in: added additional checks to figure sizes of size_t,
	ptrdiff_t and intmax_t (required by g_printf_string_upper_bound).

Wed Oct  6 12:44:23 PDT 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>

	* configure.in: blah. use G_WITH_CYGWIN instead of G_HAVE_CYGWIN

1999-10-05  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* glib.h: (Win32) Drop the mapping of POSIX function names to the
	underscored versions, it's unnecessary after all. With MSVC we get
	them from oldnames.lib, with gcc-2.95 and mingw32 from
	-lmoldname-msvc. Add comment about what headers to include for
	prototypes.

	* glibconfig.h.win32.in: Don't define WIN32 and NATIVE_WIN32.

	* gerror.c (g_on_error_query): (Win32) Slightly increased verbosity.

	* build-dll: Don't strip.

	* tests/string-test.c tests/dirname-test.c: Use G_OS_WIN32.

	* glib.def: Add g_thread_use_default_impl.

Sun Oct  3 19:46:55 PDT 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>

	* configure.in: use G_HAVE_CYGWIN instead of G_OS_FEATURE_CYGWIN

Sun Oct  3 19:25:42 PDT 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>

	* acconfig.h
	* configure.in
	* glibconfig.h.win32: G_OS_FOO #defines. I *think* I got the cygwin
	and beos stuff right, but I haven't tested it. The respective
	porters should fix any screwups

	* glib.h
	* gerror.c
	* gmain.c
	* gmessages.c
	* gscanner.c
	* gthread.c
	* gtimer.c
	* gutils.c
	* testglib.c: use G_OS stuff

Wed Sep 22 01:53:18 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* glib.h (NULL): define NULL as (0L) if __cplusplus is defined, to
	avoid "ANSI C++ forbids implicit conversion from `void *' in argument
	passing" errors upon NULL usage in C++ programs (gcc-2.95 is on crack
	for erroring out on this, instead of just issueing a warning).

	* glib.h (g_trash_stack_pop): use uncasted NULL again.
	
Fri Sep 17 10:24:45 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* gmem.c (g_mem_chunk_compute_size) (g_mem_chunk_new): applied patch
	from Soeren Sandmann <sandmann@daimi.au.dk>, to force mem chunk's area
	sizes to be a multitiple of atom_size, and to eliminate the MAX_MEM_AREA
	restriction of 65536 bytes. we also catch cases where users pass an area
	size < atom size with a return_if_fail statement now (which is ok,
	because previously this lead to memory corruption anyways).

Thu Sep 16 13:19:54 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* glib.h (g_trash_stack_pop): add explicit (GTrashStack*) cast for NULL
	pointer to cure ANSI C++ error.

Mon Sep 13 23:25:59 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* gmessages.c (g_logv): in case we have to abort the program,
	debugging is enabled and we are not called recursively, try
	to abort with raise (SIGTRAP) first, so developers may ignore
	certain failure conditions during debugging stage.

Thu Aug 26 15:09:36 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* Makefile.am:
	* gmodule/Makefile.am:
	* gthread/Makefile.am: added --export-dynamic so we can load dynmic
	modules, (required, according to the libtool 1.3.3 docu).

1999-07-23  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* grand.c (g_rand_new): Use /dev/urandom, as it doesn't block,
	which /dev/random might do. Do not XOR the time, when getting the
	seed form /dev/urandom, as this is good itself. Prevent the
	initial seed from being zero, which causes the PRNG to produce
	only zeros. Hints from Colin Plumb <colin@pgp.com>.

1999-08-17  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* glib.h (g_trash_stack_push): Add a cast.

	* gslist.c
	* glist.c: Make the inline functions static inline, and add
	separate extern wrappers. Not all compilers produce callable entry
	points for inline functions, even if gcc does.

Sun Aug 15 02:47:14 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* glib.h (g_trash_stack_pop): eliminate memset() call, since string.h
	has not neccessarily been included prior to glib.h.

Mon Aug  2 21:03:10 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* configure.in: added --enable-msg-prefix option.

	* gmessages.c (g_log_default_handler): feature "prg_name (pid:%u): "
	if --enable-msg-prefix was selected (use "(process:%u): " if
	g_get_prgname () returns NULL, along the lines of g_on_error_query).

1999-08-03  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* glib.h
	* gstrfuncs.c
	* tests/strfunc-test.c: Rename g_strccpy to g_strcompress and
	g_strecpy to g_strescape per Tim Janik's suggestion. Dropped the
	destination parameter, always g_malloc a new string.  Fix bug in
	g_strcompress, octal digits were gobbled up without limit, should
	use max three.

	Sources that use g_strescape must have ifdefs to be compilable
	both with GLib 1.2 and 1.3.

Sat Jul 31 17:52:03 PDT 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>

	* glib.h
	* gstrfuncs.c: the #define for g_strescape interfered with the
	compilation of the function, so just remove the function and
	note that it's deprecated in the header

1999-08-01  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* gstrfuncs.c (g_strccpy, g_strecpy): New functions.

	* glib.h: Declare and document them. Define the deprecated
	g_strescape as a macro that calls g_strecpy.

	* tests/strfunc-test.c (main): Test them.

	* makefile.{cygwin,msc}.in
	* tests/makefile.{cygwin,msc}.in: Remove gstack and its test
	program.

	* glib.def: Additions and removals.

	* README.win32: Improve gcc build instructions.

	* build-dll: Also build import library for MSVC.

Sat Jul 24 20:11:35 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* merged GLib 1.3.0 with glib-1.2.3 from Fri Jul 16 22:18:36.
	* incorporated proposed cleanups from gtk-devel-list.

	* bumped version number to GLib-1.3.1

	* glib.h:
	* gqueue.c:
	* gstring.c:
	* glist.c:
	removed string tokenisation (we got g_strsplit() and g_strjoin()
	already) and readline functions.
	s/g_list_delete/g_list_delete_link.
	implemented g_slist_delete_link.
	removed notion of g_ATEXIT() macro in glib.h, this is an *internal*
	macro, g_atexit() is provided for public consumption.
	added GTrashStack inline utility functions.
	reimplement double eneded queues.
	removed GStack implementation, people can use a queue or a (singly)
	linked list for this task.
	deprecated g_strescape(), we need the SunOS variants here.

	* gdate.c: added DEBUG_MSG() macro to wrap old messages.
	
	* *.*: CVS merges.

	* upgrade to libtool 1.3.3.

1999-07-21  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	Win32: With the latest gcc (2.95, pre-release), we can have binary
 	compatibility with MSVC by using the switch -fnative-struct. No
 	longer build DLLs with .gcc in the name when using gcc.

	* README.win32: Renew gcc build instructions.

	* build-dll: Comments change, handle also .a files.

	* makefile.cygwin.in

1999-07-13  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* README.win32: Correct URL for mingw runtime sources.

	* build-dll: Combine commands with &&.

	* glib.h: Map also rmdir() and hypot() for MSVCRT library.

	* makefile.cygwin.in
	* tests/makefile.cygwin.in: New DLL naming style. GCC-compiled DLLs are
 	now called *.gcc.dll, to avoid binary incompatibilities with
 	MSVC-compiled versions.

	* makefile.msc.in: Cosmetics.

1999-07-07  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* configure.in: Test for pthread_join rather than for
	pthread_create to determine the right thread-lib. Makes it work on
	mips-sgi-irix6.5. Hitn from to Jari Vuoksenranta
	<javu@piano.ux.phys.jyu.fi>.

1999-07-02  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* README.win32: Note about need to fix another bug in the mingw32
 	headers.

	* makefile.msc.in: Debugging turned on via an nmake variable,
	no need to edit the makefile.

1999-07-01  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* configure.in, acconfig.h, gutils.c: Added a g_memmove
	replacement for platforms without memmove, where bcopy can't
	handle overlapping copies and the corresponding checks, which is
	taken form the PERL Configure routine.

	* glib.h: Updated the commentary about g_memmove to be right and
	more GLib-like.
	
	* configure.in: Removed test for rand_r, as it isn't used anymore.

1999-06-30  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* glib.h, grand.c: Finally removed the g_random_normal and
	g_rand_normal functions.

1999-06-28  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* glib.def: Add missing export of g_strncasecmp.

1999-06-21  Jose Mercado  <jmercado@mit.edu>

	* glib.spec.in: Changed version number (1.1->1.3) in files section
	to allow rpm to build packages again.

1999-06-21  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* README.win32: Update the pthreads snapshot version we want.
	Advice how to hand-expand the makefile.*.in files.

	* config.h.win32.in: Define values needed by Sebastian Wilhelmi's
	new thread stuff.

	* glib.def: Add new functions.

	* glibconfig.h.win32.in: Update the pthreads snapshot version.
	Fix typo.

	* gthread.c: Include config.h, guard inclusion of unistd.h.  When
 	using gcc on Win32, g_thread_functions_for_glib_use must be marked
 	for export here, too.

	* gtimer.c: Implement g_usleep on native Win32 using Sleep (which
	only has millisecond granularity, though).
	
	* makefile.cygwin.in
	* makefile.msc.in: Update pthreads snapshot version. File
	name changes. Remove testgthread.

	* tests/makefile.cygwin.in
	* tests/makefile.msc.in: Add thread-test. Link with gthread lib.

1999-06-18  Jeff Garzik  <jgarzik@pobox.com>

	* tests/Makefile.am:  Re-order tests in alpha order.

1999-06-18  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* configure.in: Changed test for pthread_attr_setstacksize from
	AC_TRY_COMPILE to AC_TRY_LINK.

1999-06-17  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* configure.in, acglib.m4, acconfig.h, glib.h, gthread.c:
	Completed the thread support in GLib. Thread creation,
	prioritizing threads, yielding, joining threads as well as
	reader/writer locks and recursive mutexes are now in place. Please
	test heavily on your platform. It is so far tested on
	Linux/i386/pthreads, Solaris/Sparc/pthreads and
	Solaris/Sparc/solaristhreads.

	* gtimer.c, glib.h: Implement g_usleep (gulong microseconds) for
	thread safe sleeping. (sleep() is not MT-safe at all!)

	* gutils.c: Avoid compiler warning.

	* tests/Makefile.am, tests/thread-test.c: New program to test some
	aspects of the thread implementation.

	* gthread.c, Makefile.am: Renamed from gmutex.c to reflect the
	change of content.

	* configure.in: Purged all appearances of nspr.

	* glib.h: Document g_strescape.

1999-05-12  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* glib.h (Win32): Map fileno to _fileno for mingw32. Map fstat to
 	_fstat.

	* README.win32: Advice also to remove -lmoldname in the
 	patch to the egcs-1.1.2 spec file.

Wed May 12 00:23:55 CDT 1999 Shawn T. Amundson <amundson@gtk.org>

	* gmodule/Makefile.am: Another small fix.

1999-05-08  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* Makefile.am tests/Makefile.am: Correct rules for making the
	win32-related files that are made from corresponding .in files.
	Is there a cleaner way than explicitly writing rules that invoke
	config.status?

Fri Jul 16 22:18:36 PDT 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>

	* ltconfig
	* ltmain.sh: upgrade to libtool 1.3.3

1999-06-18  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* gdate.c, gstrfuncs.c, gstring.c: Fixed the use of the
	is..... and to..... macros, which take unsigned chars, not chars!
	Thanks to Morten Welinder <terra@diku.dk> for pointing this out.

Thu Jun  3 16:30:31 PDT 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>

	* gerror.c (g_on_error_query): check isatty() before querying so
	we don't loop endlessly

Sat May 29 11:16:29 PDT 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>

	* acinclude.m4
	* config.guess

	* ltconfig
	* ltmain.sh: upgrade to libtool 1.3.2

1999-05-26  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* gmain.c: provide a poll prototype for SunOS, as they do not do
	it self. Hint from Christian Parg <cparg@fs-design.de>.

Tue May 25 12:23:07 1999  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* gstrfuncs.c (g_strchug): Use g_memmove() not memmove().

	* Released GLib 1.2.3

1999-05-08  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* Makefile.am tests/Makefile.am: Correct rules for making the
	win32-related files that are made from corresponding .in files.
	Is there a cleaner way than explicitly writing rules that invoke
	config.status?
	
Sat May  1 10:18:01 PDT 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>

	* acinclude.m4
	* config.guess
	* config.status
	* ltconfig
	* ltmain.sh: upgrade to libtool 1.3

1999-04-30  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* Makefile.am: Don't distribute glibconfig.h.win32.in, but
	glibconfig.h.win32. Generate it when making a dist. Also generate
	makefile.msc and config.h.win32 from corresponding .in files when
	making dist.

	* configure.in: Also substitute @GLIB_INTERFACE_AGE@ and
	@GLIB_BINARY_AGE@ (needed in config.h.win32).
	
	* glibconfig.h.win32.in: Use static mutex structure and initial
	value corresponding to the 1999-04-07 snapshot of pthreads-win32.

	* tests/Makefile.am: Distribute makefile.msc. Generate it when
	making dist.

	* tests/makefile.msc.in: New file.

	* gstrfuncs.c: minor code cleanups.

Tue Apr 27 13:11:29 1999  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* gmain.c (g_main_poll): Mask out ERR HUP and NVAL from
	the events field so we don't give IRIX fits.

Tue Apr 20 08:42:22 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* gscanner.c (g_scanner_unexp_token): behave conservative with
	G_TOKEN_IDENTIFIER_NULL and always assume scanner->value.v_string
	to be "null" in that case.

1999-04-20  Havoc Pennington  <hp@pobox.com>

	* gutils.c (g_vsnprintf):  When using the vsnprintf()
	implementation, '\0'-terminate the resulting string
	and return its length rather than -1.

Mon Apr 19 13:42:21 1999  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* gmain.c (g_main_iterate): Added missing
	#ifdef G_THREADS_ENABLED. (I never liked G_THREADS_ENABLED in
	the first place!)

1999-04-18  Havoc Pennington  <hp@pobox.com>

	* gutils.c (g_snprintf): When using the vsnprintf()
	implementation, '\0'-terminate the resulting string
	and return its length rather than -1.

Fri Apr 16 06:52:07 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* gscanner.c (g_scanner_unexp_token): feature G_TOKEN_EOF as a valid
	expected token as well, so we get "- expected end of file" instead of
	"- expected (unknown) token <0>".

Tue Apr 13 16:16:14 CDT 1999 Shawn T. Amundson <amundson@gtk.org>

	* Released GLib 1.2.2

1999-04-12  Elliot Lee  <sopwith@mh69.mh.cuc.edu>

	* g_strchug(): s/strcpy/memmove/

1999-04-12  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* configure.in: Adjusted the test for an unimplemented
	getpwuid_r. Info from Michael Pruett <mikep@ugcs.caltech.edu>.

Sun Apr 11 15:07:34 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* glib.h: removed braces around inline strings for the G_GNUC_FUNCTION
	and G_GNUC_PRETTY_FUNCTION macros, so the macros can be used for compile
	time string concatenation.

Thu Apr  8 19:53:19 1999  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* gmain.c (g_main_iterate): Check for two threads
	calling g_main_iterate at once.

	* gmain.c: If the set of poll file descriptors changes
	during a call to poll(), abort that call, and start
	a new poll. My test program still segfaults
	obscurely on glibc 2.0 (in read()!!!), but now it works on
	glibc 2.1, so I'll blame something else for the other segfault.

1999-03-31  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* configure.in: Fixed slight bug, that made configure hang on some
	systems. Please do not merge this into 1.3 branch. It's taken care
	of differently there. Info from J. Rhett Aultman
	<cuplan@alley.gator.net>

	so it can be used to e.g. pass a GPollFd.
	(g_main_poll): only add poll records with an events mask != 0 to the
	fd_array. don't even bother calling poll_func() if fds=timeout=0.
	added debugging printouts around poll_func() invokation that can be
	enabled with #define G_MAIN_POLL_DEBUG.

Fri Mar 19 16:29:50 PST 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>

	s/g_static_/g_private_/g

Wed Mar 17 03:17:42 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>
	
	* configure.in bumped versin number to GLib 1.2.1, interface 1,
	binary 1.
	
	* NEWS: updates.

	* glib.h: added GLIB_CHECK_VERSION() macro similar to
	GTK_CHECK_VERSION().

Sun Mar 14 17:50:35 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* gmem.c (g_mem_chunk_*): changed a bunch of g_assert() statements
	to g_return_if_fail().
	(g_mem_profile): 
	(g_mem_chunk_print): 
	(g_mem_chunk_info): removed some extraneous "\n"s at the end of the log
	messages.

	* gtimer.c (g_timer_*):	changed a bunch of g_assert() statements
	to g_return_if_fail().
	* grel.c (g_*): changed a bunch of g_assert() statements to
	g_return_if_fail() and added some extra ones to check relation != NULL.

1999-03-12  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* configure.in: Also accept _Pctime_r instead of ctime_r, while
	seraching for the right `_REENTRANT' flag. This is for Digital
	UNIX 4.0d. Thanks to Sascha Brawer <sb@adasys.ch>.

Tue Mar  9 23:25:50 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* configure.in: check for working realloc (NULL,).
	* gmem.c (g_realloc): use malloc() for initial allocation on systems
	where realloc(NULL,) will not work (this is the case on SunOS, reported
	by Tom Geiger).

Mon Mar  8 07:42:08 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* ghook.c (g_hook_unref): when !hook_list->is_setup, wrap the
	flag around the call to g_hook_free() to avoid spurious
	warnings (happens during destruction phase).

1999-03-03  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* glibconfig.h.win32, config.h.win32: Moved G_THREADS_IMPL_POSIX
	from config.h.win32 to glibconfig.h.win32

	versions of mutex_trylock and cond_timedwait. The win32 versions
	are posix, aren't they?

1999-03-02  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* gmem.c: Fixed a stupid cut'n'paste error of mine. Thanks to
	Friedrich Dominicus <Friedrich.Dominicus@inka.de>

1999-03-01  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

        * gutils.c (g_get_any_init): Fixed yet another bloody
        implementation of getpwuid_r on AIX. Thanks to Olaf Dietsche
        <olaf.dietsche+list.gtk@netcologne.de>. I would like a configure
        test better than that, but have no idea, how to do that easily.

1999-04-22  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* gutils.c (g_get_any_init): use sysconf (_SC_GETPW_R_SIZE_MAX) as
	the new initinal bufsize for getpwuid_r on systems, that support
	this. Hint from Holger Duerer <H.Duerer@zait.uni-bremen.de>.

	Twister Pseudo Random Number Generator.

	* glib.h, AUTHORS, Makefile.am, tests/Makefile.am: Changed
	accordingly.

Thu Apr  8 21:12:30 CDT 1999 Shawn T. Amundson <amundson@gtk.org>

	* Released GLib 1.3.0

1999-03-30  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* configure.in: Added a check for the right format to printf and
	scanf long longs. It is %qi instead of %lli on FreeBSD for
	whatever reason.

1999-03-28  Raja R Harinath  <harinath@cs.umn.edu>

	* Makefile.am (glibconfig.h): Make sure `glibconfig.h' exists
	after the rule is fired.
	(install-exec-local): Install glibconfig.h only if the contents

Fri Mar 19 16:29:50 PST 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>

	* acinclude.m4
	* config.guess
	* config.sub
	* ltconfig
	* ltmain.sh: upgrade to libtool 1.2f

	* autogen.sh: libtool is not required to autogen glib

	* acconfig.h: remove WITH_SYMBOL_UNDERSCORE (not explictly
	needed)

1999-03-18  Jeff Garzik  <jgarzik@pobox.com>

	* glib.def: Add new g_list, g_stack, g_queue functions.

1999-03-18  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* configure.in: added new AC_SUBST(GTHREAD_COMPILE_IMPL_DEFINES)
	to hold various defines to get the right thread implementation on
	different platforms. Also look in -ldce for pthread_create. Should
	make it work on HP-UX 10.x. Information from "D. Emilio Grimaldo
	Tunon" <emilio_tunon@nl.compuware.com>.

1999-03-17  Jeff Garzik  <jgarzik@pobox.com>

	Add copyright, clean up code a bit.

1999-03-17  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	branch.

	* configure.in: Also accept _Pctime_r instead of ctime_r, while
	seraching for the right `_REENTRANT' flag. This is for Digital
	UNIX 4.0d. Taken from glib 1.2 branch.

Wed Mar 17 03:14:56 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* glib.h: added GLIB_CHECK_VERSION() macro similar to
	GTK_CHECK_VERSION().

Wed Mar 17 01:46:28 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

        * merges from glib-1-2:
        
Sun Mar 14 17:50:35 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

        * gmem.c (g_mem_chunk_*): changed a bunch of g_assert() statements
        to g_return_if_fail().
        (g_mem_profile):
        (g_mem_chunk_print):
        (g_mem_chunk_info): removed some extraneous "\n"s at the end of the log
        messages.

        * gtimer.c (g_timer_*): changed a bunch of g_assert() statements
        to g_return_if_fail().
        * grel.c (g_*): changed a bunch of g_assert() statements to
        g_return_if_fail() and added some extra ones to check relation != NULL.

Tue Mar  9 23:25:50 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

        * configure.in: check for working realloc (NULL,).
        * gmem.c (g_realloc): use malloc() for initial allocation on systems
        where realloc(NULL,) will not work (this is the case on SunOS, reported
        by Tom Geiger).

Mon Mar  8 07:42:08 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

        * ghook.c (g_hook_unref): when !hook_list->is_setup, wrap the
        flag around the call to g_hook_free() to avoid spurious
        warnings (happens during destruction phase).

1999-03-02  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

        * gmem.c: Fixed a stupid cut'n'paste error of mine. Thanks to
        Friedrich Dominicus <Friedrich.Dominicus@inka.de>

1999-03-16  Timur Bakeyev  <mc@bat.ru>

	* configure.in: Fix problem with pthread_create in libc, as running
	"gcc test.c -l " is not legal.

1999-03-16  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* tests/type-test.c: Added a test for the
	G_(U)?INT(16|32|64)_FORMAT and G_(MIN|MAX|MAXU)(SHORT|INT|LONG)
	macros.

	* configure.in: Removed G_(U)?INT8_FORMAT again, as it can't be
	used for scanf.

	* configure.in: Added the macros G_MAXU(SHORT|INT|LONG). I do not
	know how to handle these on platforms with /usr/include/values.h,
	but without /usr/include/limits.h. Please someone add this.


1999-03-15  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* configure.in: Added the macros G_(U)?INT(8|16|32|64)_FORMAT to
	use for printf and (much more important) scanf format strings for
	the corresponding GLib types. 

	* glib.h Added G_(U)?(SHORT|INT|LONG)_FORMAT for consistency. It
	however makes no sense to also provide G_(FLOAT|DOUBLE)_FORMAT, as
	they are different for printf (f for both) and scanf (f for float,
	lf for double). Defining G_INT_FORMAT makes sense however, as we
	might want to define gint to something different than int someday
	in the future. Idea from Sascha Brawer <sb@adasys.ch>.
	
1999-03-14  Jeff Garzik  <jgarzik@pobox.com>

	* gdate.c:
	Commented out debugging output.

	* tests/Makefile.am, tests/date-test.c:
	Added test of the GDate module, based closely on testgdate.c.

	* tests/Makefile.am:
	Bugfix - compile tests with @GLIB_DEBUG_FLAGS@.

1999-03-14  Raja R Harinath  <harinath@cs.umn.edu>

	* configure.in (glibconfig.h): Remove widechar tests and defines.
	(fd_set): Change the grep for `fd_mask' to search for `fd_set'.
	* gerror.c (fd_mask): Remove conditional typedef.  It is not used
	elsewhere in the file.
	* gmain.c (fd_mask): Likewise.

1999-03-12  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* configure.in: Test for posix threads first, then for dce threads.

1999-03-11  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* configure.in: Revamped the thread configure stuff. Now dce
	threads (old posix draft) are recogniced. This is necessary,
	because dce threads are in fact working quite differently from
	posix threads. Also changed the conditions for checking for MT
	safe functions a bit, because G_THREADS_IMPL_NONE still have to
	compile thread safe. NOTE: Please do not commit my change to
	glib-1-2/{acconfig.h,configure.in,config.h.win32} from 1999-03-03,
	as the current change will take care of that too.

Tue Mar  9 14:37:32 1999  Jeff Garzik  <jgarzik@pobox.com>

	* Makefile.am, glib.h, gstack.c, gqueue.c,
	  tests/Makefile.am, tests/queue-test.c, tests/stack-test.c:
	Added stack, queue ADTs and related tests.

	* glib.h, glist.c:
	New g_list_delete() function.

Sat Mar  6 11:03:08 1999  Asbjorn Pettersen  <ape@lrdpf.spacetec.no>

	* gutils.c (g_get_any_init): add OS/2 changes.
	change '\\' in HOME to '/'.

1999-03-03  Josh MacDonald  <jmacd@spin.dsl.pacbell.net>

	* glib.def: g_spaced_primes_closest was omitted here, so I
	couldn't build Xdelta on Windows.

1999-03-01  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* gutils.c (g_get_any_init): Fixed yet another bloody
	implementation of getpwuid_r on AIX. Thanks to Olaf Dietsche
	<olaf.dietsche+list.gtk@netcologne.de>. I would like a configure
	test better than that, but have no idea, how to do that easily.

Sat Feb 27 01:18:47 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* ChangeLog: moved old ChangeLog to ChangeLog.pre-1-2, and started
	new one.

	* configure.in: set glib version to 1.3.0.
