2005-04-06  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* === Released 2.6.4 ===

	* gobject/Makefile.am (BUILT_EXTRA_DIST): add gobjectaliasdef.c

	* NEWS: Updates

2005-04-04  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/gconvert.c: Clarify docs in some places. (#172404, 
	Morten Welinder)

	* NEWS: Updates

2005-04-03  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/gutils.h: Undef G_CAN_INLINE if G_IMPLEMENT_INLINES is 
	defined. This was the pre-2.6 behaviour, and without it,
	G_IMPLEMENT_INLINES cannot be used in multiple .c files
	at all.  (#165852, Dave Benson)

2005-04-01  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/gmain.c (g_child_watch_source_new): Add a note regarding
	waitpid(-1).
	(g_child_watch_source_init_multi_threaded): 
	(g_child_watch_source_init_single): Don't use SA_RESTART,
	since it causes problems on at least one platform. (#168352)

2005-03-31  Steve Murphy  <murf@e-tools.com>

	* configure.in: Added "rw" to ALL_LINGUAS.

2005-03-30  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

	* glib/giowin32.c (g_io_win32_fd_get_flags_internal): Always claim
	file descriptors open to devices are readable, since we can't
	know. fstat() doesn't give any useful information. (#145326)

2005-03-29  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

	* glib/gmain.c (g_poll): [Win32] If the event fired, assign
	f->revents=f->events. We can't know whether the upper layer using
	the event actually is readable, writeable or what, so say that all
	the conditions hold. Remove the ResetEvent() call that has been
	ifdeffed out anyway for a long time. Remove an "#ifdef 1" and
	#endif pair of lines, that code is not optional.
	(g_get_current_time): [Win32] Use GetSystemTimeAsFileTime()
	instead of time() and GetTickCount(). Much simpler.

2005-03-27  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

	* configure.in: Apparently AC_LIBTOOL_WIN32_DLL isn't deprecated
	after all, and in fact necessary with HEAD libtool.

2005-03-23  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

	* glib/gutils.c (g_getenv): [Win32] Fix corner case bug when
	environment variable value is exactly one character.

2005-03-20  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

	* glib/gspawn-win32.c (do_spawn_with_pipes): Close the process
	handle if the caller doesn't want it also in the case without a
	helper process.
	(g_spawn_sync): Don't ask for a child pid which we don't need.

	* glib/gtimer.c: On Win32, use GetSystemTimeAsFileTime() instead
	of GetTickCount(). (#159507)

	* glib/gmessages.c (g_log_default_handler)
	* glib/gutils.c (g_get_prgname): Move the Win32 code that asks the
	program name from the system to g_get_prgname(). Do output the pid
	also on Win32 (useful in case there are several instances of the
	same program running).

	* tests/testglib.c (main): Print more detailled output from the
	timer tests. Don't print home directory twice. Test
	g_win32_error_message().

	* tests/spawn-test.c (run_tests): On Win32, run netstat instead of
	ipconfig. On Windows XP collecting output from ipconfig doesn't
	seem to work for some reason.

2005-03-17  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/gkeyfile.c: Update the documentation, reflecting the
	fact that the special case for !group_name --> start_group
	got removed.  (#170566, Tim-Philipp Müller)
	
2005-03-15  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/goption.c (g_option_context_set_main_group): Warn 
	if there already is a main group.  (#170445, Jeff Franks)

Sun Mar 13 21:28:47 2005  Manish Singh  <yosh@gimp.org>

	* glib/gdataset.c: remove spurious IA prefix from g_quark_try_string.

2005-03-13  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/gatomic.c:
	* glib/gcache.c: Small fixes to the previous commit.

2005-03-13  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/gatomic.c: Include galias.h last.

2005-03-13  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	Make PLT-reduction work with gcc4, and don't include
	everything in galias.h:
	
	* glib/glib.symbols: Group symbols by header and source file.
	* glib/makegalias.pl: Protect definitions by the same 
	preprocessor symbols used to guard the headers. Move
	the alias declarations to a separate file which is 
	produced when calling makegalias.pl -def
	* glib/Makefile.am (galiasdef.c): Add a rule to generate this
	file.
	* glib/*.c: Include galias.h after the other GLib headers,
	include galiasdef.c at the bottom.

2005-03-11  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* m4macros/glib-gettext.m4: Avoid stupid compiler complaints
	about precision loss.

2005-03-10  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* tests/date-test.c: 
	* tests/testgdate.c: Add tests for 
	g_date_get_iso8601_week_of_year().

	* glib/gdate.c (g_date_get_iso8601_week_of_year): 
	Fix the calculation.  (#169858, Jon-Kare Hellan)

2005-03-09  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

	* glib/Makefile.am
	* gmodule/Makefile.am: Merge from HEAD: Use grep | head -n 1
	instead of grep -m 1 which doesn't work with slightly older
	versions of GNU grep in install-libtool-import-lib rule.

	* glib/gutils.c (g_get_user_data_dir, g_get_user_config_dir,
	g_get_user_cache_dir, g_get_system_data_dirs,
	g_get_system_config_dirs): [Win32] Don't leak return value from
	get_special_folder(). (#169348, Daniel Atallah) Guard against
	g_home_dir being NULL, use g_tmp_dir/g_user_name in that case.

2005-03-06  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/gmarkup.c: Add G_GNUC_PRINTF attribute
	to set_error. 
	(g_markup_parse_context_end_parse): Fix an
	error message, noticed by Tim Janik. 

2005-02-28  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* Bump version.

	* === Released 2.6.3 ===

	* NEWS: Updates.

2005-02-24  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

	* glib/Makefile.am (BUILT_EXTRA_DIST): Don't distribute
	glib.def. (#167496, J. Ali Harlow)

	* glib/gfileutils.c (get_contents_win32): Use g_fopen(). (#168341,
	Daniel Atallah)

2005-02-24  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* NEWS: Updates.

2005-02-23  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* configure.in: Don't forget to set G_THREAD_LIBS_FOR_GTHREAD 
	on non-linux platforms.  (#168177, Michael Banck)

	* tests/keyfile-test.c (test_locale_string): Set LANGUAGE 
	instead of LC_ALL to shield against LANGUAGE being set in 
	the environment.  (#168311, Suren A. Chilingaryan)

Tue Feb 22 22:03:38 2005  Manish Singh  <yosh@gimp.org>

	* glib/gstdio.h: On G_OS_UNIX, simple #define g_open and co. as
	aliases for their respective C library functions, instead of
	using the function wrappers. This avoids library users having to
	care about matching large file support with whatever glib has been
	built with. Fixes bug #167942.

	* glib/gstdio.c
	* glib/abicheck.sh
	* glib/glib.symbols
	* glib/makegalias.pl: Logic to make the gstdio wrappers still
	available for compatibility, but not used in new code.

Tue Feb 22 18:33:07 2005  Manish Singh  <yosh@gimp.org>

	* glib/gtimer.c (g_usleep): Simplify the loop for the fix below.

2005-02-20  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	nanosleep().  (#163039, Bastien Nocera)

2005-02-16  Adi Attar  <aattar@cvs.gnome.org>

	* configure.in: Added "xh" to ALL_LINGUAS.

2005-02-10  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/goption.c (print_help): Take main group options into
	account when calculating column size.  (#166921)
	(g_option_context_parse): Accept -? as documented.  (#166977)

2005-02-09  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/gkeyfile.c (find_file_in_data_dirs): Don't leak path
	here.  (#166801, Kjartan Maraas)

2005-02-08  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_parse_value_as_string): Don't
	write out of bounds.

	* glib/goption.c (g_option_context_parse): Fix a 
	one-too-short memory allocation.  (#166609, Nicolas Laurent)

	* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Add tests with
	MALLOC_CHECK_.

	* tests/option-test.c: Add a test for unkown short options.

2005-02-07  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

	* glib-zip.in: Add gmodule-no-export-2.0.pc.

Sun Feb  6 21:59:09 2005  Manish Singh  <yosh@gimp.org>

	* glib/abicheck.sh: feed the contents of config.h and glibconfig.h
	into the preprocessor, since glib.symbols could need #defines
	from them.

Sun Feb  6 12:09:55 2005  Manish Singh  <yosh@gimp.org>

	* glib/gatomic.c: Don't use matching constraints for asm mem
	parameters. This makes the code match with current glibc, and
	quiets some warnings with gcc 3.4.

2005-02-05  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

	* glib/gfileutils.c (g_file_get_contents): In the Win32 ABI
	stability version, call g_file_get_contents_utf8(), not
	itself. (#166386, Bill Skaggs)

2005-02-04  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* configure.in: Define a HAVE_GNUC_VISIBILITY automake
	conditional.

	* glib/Makefile.am (TESTS): Only check the abi if
	the compiler supports visibility, otherwise we
	know there will be (harmless) extra symbols.  
	(#166181, Ed Avis)

2005-02-02  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* configure.in: Post-release version bump

	* === Released 2.6.2 ===

	* NEWS: Updates

2005-02-02  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

	* glib/gwin32.h: Remove unnecessary MSVC-only typedef for
	pid_t. (#165910) GLib does not pretend to be a POSIX emulation
	library.

	* glib/gstdio.c: In the Win32 part of all functions, handle
	invalid UTF-8 more robustly. Don't pass the resulting NULL
	wide-char or codepage strings on to C library functions, but bail
	out early. (#166084)

	* glib/gfileutils.c: Don't use potentially incorrect errno in
	several places. (#165951)
	(g_mkstemp): Set errno appropriately.

2005-02-02  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* NEWS: Updates

2005-02-01  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* tests/keyfile-test.c (test_key_remove): Add test case for
	key removal.

	* glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_remove_key): Actually remove 
	the key from the list of pairs.  (#165980, David Hoover)

	* glib/gkeyfile.c: Doc clarifications.  (#165907, Vincent Untz)

	* tests/keyfile-test.c (test_group_remove): Add test case for
	group removal.

	* glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_remove_group): Don't segfault
	if the group doesn't exist.  (#165887, Mathias Hasselmann)

2005-01-30  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* tests/keyfile-test.c: Some more unit tests.

2005-01-28  Christian Rose  <menthos@menthos.com>

	* configure.in: Added "tl" to ALL_LINGUAS.

2005-01-24  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* tests/run-markup-tests.sh: Let $srcdir default to .

	* tests/markups/fail-40.gmarkup: Add a test with a long entity
	name.

	* glib/gmarkup.c (unescape_text_state_inside_entity_name): Don't
	copy the entity name into a short buffer of fixed length. Instead,
	compare it in place with strncmp(), and do a full strdup() in the
	error path.  (#165100, Simon Budig)

2005-01-22  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

	* glib/gdate.c (g_date_set_time): Don't g_assert that localtime()
	returns non-NULL. It does return NULL at least on Win32 if you
	pass it a negative time_t, which although wrong, shouldn't cause
	an application to abort. Instead return 2000-01-01 as a default
	date. Print a warning unless G_DISABLE_CHECKS. (#164622)

2005-01-20  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_parse_value_as_integer): Don't
	interpret leading zeros as octal. The specification requires
	%f parsing, and %f doesn't allow octal.  

	* tests/keyfile-test.c: Add some more tests.

	* glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_get_keys): Return keys in
	the order found in the file, rather than the opposite.
	(g_key_file_parse_value_as_string): Fix error reporting.

2005-01-19  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_parse_data): Accept \r\n as 
	line end.  (#163030, Bastian Nocera)
	(g_key_file_load_from_data): Make -1 work as a size.
	
	* tests/keyfile-test.c: Some unit tests for the keyfile
	parser.  

	* tests/Makefile.am (test_programs): Add keyfile-test.

2005-01-19  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

	* configure.in: sh portability fix. Use "test" and not [.
	(#163144, Robert Ögren)

	* glib/gbacktrace.c (g_on_error_stack_trace): On Win32 call
	G_BREAKPOINT() if being debugged.

	* glib/gmessages.c (g_logv): For fatal messages on Win32, use
	G_BREAKPOINT() also without G_ENABLE_DEBUG, but only if being
	debugged. Suggestion by Ulf Lamping.

2005-01-18  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/gkeyfile.c (g_key_file_get_boolean_list): Fix a
	sparse warning.  (#164467, Kjartan Maraas)

2005-01-17  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/gconvert.c (g_get_filename_charsets): Don't crash
	if G_FILENAME_ENCODING is empty.  (#164330, Pawel Sakowski)

2005-01-10  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add missing ChangeLog.pre*

2005-01-09  Hans Breuer  <hans@breuer.org>

	* glib/gfileutils.c : make it compile with mvc6 default sdk,
	(#define INVALID_FILE_ATTRIBUTES, FILE_ATTRIBUTE_DEVICE)

2005-01-09  Tor Lillqvist  <tlillqvist@novell.com>

	* glib/gwin32.c: Include also wchar.h for wcslen on
	Cygwin.
	(g_win32_error_message): Fix cast. (#163133, Roger Leigh)

	* glib/gfileutils.c: Include <io.h> on Windows for
	prototypes. (#163390, Kazuki Iwamoto)

2005-01-07  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* NEWS: Typo fixes.

	* configure.in: Bump version

	* === Released 2.6.1 ===

2005-01-07  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* configure.in: 
	* Makefile.am: Generate and distribute gmodule-export-2.0.pc,
	which is currently just a copy of gmodule-2.0.pc, but makes
	it explicit that it adds --export-dynamic.
	
	* gmodule-export-2.0.pc.in: Copy of gmodule-2.0.pc.in.

2005-01-06  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* glib/Makefile.am
	* gobject/Makefile.am: glib.def and gobject.def are generated, not
	in $(srcdir). (#163143, J. Ali Harlow)

	* configure.in
	* glib/Makefile.am
	* gobject/Makefile.am: Win32 cross-compilation fixes. (#163144,
	J. Ali Harlow)

2005-01-05  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/gutils.h: Simplify the inlining magic to make it
	work at Oh zero.  (#162990, Kalpesh Shah) 

2005-01-04  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* glib/guniprop.c (get_locale_type): Use g_win32_getlocale()
	instead of setlocale() on Windows. setlocale() returns strings
	like "Turkish_Turkey".

2005-01-04  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	Fix the inlining magic.  (#157536, Jens Hatlak, and
	#149907, Morten Welinder)
	
	* configure.in: Define G_CAN_INLINE in glibconfig.h

	* glib/gutils.h: Streamline the inlining magic a bit,
	don't use extern when implementing the non-inlined 
	version.

2005-01-03  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/gutils.c (g_find_program_in_path): Don't return
	directories.  (#160738, Tommi Komulainen)

	* glib/gfileutils.c (g_file_get_contents): Clarify the 
	documentation.  (#162251, Mariano Suárez-Alvarez)

2005-01-02  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/gutils.c (g_setenv, g_unsetenv): Clarify the 
	docs.  (#162747, Crispin Flowerday)

2005-01-01  J. Ali Harlow  <ali@juiblex.co.uk>

	* configure.in: Don't use AC_TRY_RUN to test for long long format
	when using the MSVCRT.DLL runtime since we know the answer anyway
	and it causes some mild inconvience when cross compiling.

	* README.win32: Add a reference to the cross compiling section
	of the reference manual.

	* docs/reference/glib/cross.sgml: MinGW uses MSVCRT.DLL which
	requires %I64i instead of %lli. (#161306)

2005-01-01  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* glib/gutils.c: Make the g_getenv() ABI backward compatibility
	wrapper more robust.

2005-01-01  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* glib/glib.symbols
	* glib/gutils.h
	* glib/gutils.c: Make also g_getenv(), g_setenv(), g_unsetenv()
	and g_find_program_in_path() take and return UTF-8 strings on
	Win32. Implement DLL ABI backward compatility for them, too. Move
	all the DLL ABI stability wrappers to the end of the file. Use
	wide character API when available in inner_find_program_in_path().

	* glib/gfileutils.c: With the UTF-8ness of g_getenv() above, just
	use g_getenv() to get PATHEXT. (Yeah, it's probably overdoing it
	to consider somebody actually having anything else than ASCII
	in PATHEXT, but...)

2004-12-31  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* glib/gfileutils.c (g_file_test): Rewrite the Win32 version to
	use GetFileAttributes() instead of stat(). stat() is unreliable
	for corner cases like '\\server\share' or '.\'. Part of fixing
	#161797. When testing for executability, in addition to the fixed
	set of executable file name extensions also check the PATHEXT
	environment variable.

2004-12-30  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* glib/gutils.c (g_get_current_dir): In the Win32 version, use
	GetCurrentDirectory() directly for simpler buffer length
	management. I don't trust getcwd() getting it right all the time.

2004-12-30  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/gfileutils.c (g_file_test): Typo fix.

2004-12-30  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* glib/gutils.c (g_path_skip_root): Require UNC paths to start
	with exactly two slashes.
	(g_get_current_dir): Use wide character API when available.
	(g_path_get_dirname): Handle UNC paths better. Part of fix for
	#161797.

2004-12-27  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* configure.in: Add an OS_LINUX conditional.

	* glib/Makefile.am (TESTS): Only check the ABI on 
	linux, since the shell script is not portable, and libtool
	deficiencies may distort the ABI on other platforms.  (#161741)

2004-12-21  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/goption.c (print_entry): Don't show
	the special G_OPTION_REMAINING entry.  (#161934,
	Matthew F. Barnes)

2004-12-20  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* glib/gconvert.c (g_locale_to_utf8, g_filename_to_uri): Improve
	docs.

2004-12-20  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* tests/option-test.c: Add some tests for '--' 
	stripping.

	* glib/goption.c (g_option_context_parse): Don't
	strip '--' if it would be needed by a second option
	parser.  (#161701)

	* glib/gunicollate.c (g_utf8_collate): Make docs 
	more accurate.  (#161683, Marcin Krzyzanowski)

2004-12-19  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/goption.c (g_option_context_parse): Call
	post-parse hooks also if argv is NULL.  (#161668,
	Marcin Krzyzanowski)
