	* === Released 2.4.8 ===
	
2004-12-01  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* NEWS: Updates

2004-11-30  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* NEWS: Updates

2004-11-30  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* glib/gspawn-win32-helper.c (WinMain): Also check errno to detect
	true errors from spawn*(). (#157258, reported by Bruce Hochstetler)

2004-11-08  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>
	
	* glib/gmain.c: Initialize child_watch_count to 1, so 
	that we don't miss the very first child if it exits 
	before we set up the child watch. In that case we had 
	previously source->count == child_watch_count == 0, 
	causing g_child_watch_check() to skip the waitpid() 
	call.  (#154827, Gustavo Carneiro)

	* glib/gmain.c (g_child_watch_source_init_single) 
	(g_child_watch_source_init_multi_threaded): Use sigaction()
	instead of signal().  (#136867, Jonas Jonsson, patch by
	Archana Shah)

2004-11-07  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/gutils.c (g_get_any_init): Work around an bug
	in Mac OS < 10.3.  (#156446, Dave MacLachlan)

2004-10-23  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/gnulib/g-gnulib.h: Undef libc functions before defining
	them, since they may also be macros.  (#155177, Andrea Campi)

2004-10-08  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* configure.in: Bump version.

	* === Released 2.4.7 ===

2004-10-08  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* NEWS: Updates.

	* glib/gmain.c (g_child_watch_add_full): 
	* glib/gmain.c (g_child_watch_add): Document that GLib supports only
	a single callback per pid. (#154828, Gustavo Carneiro)

2004-10-06  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/gfileutils.c: Fix some C99isms.  (#154676, Kjartan Maraas)

2004-10-05  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* NEWS: Updates.

2004-09-30  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/gfileutils.c: Convert filenames to UTF-8 before 
	putting them in GErrors.  (#154078, Morten Welinder)

2004-09-22  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* glib/gmessages.c: [Win32] Don't ever open a console
	window. (Which we used to do if standard output or standard error
	are invalid, as they are for GUI applications.) These console
	windows that open up unexpectedly have caused endless amounts of
	confusion among end-users. (#141102, #151175)

	Don't output the process id on Windows. Only output the program
	name. If not set with g_set_prgname(), fetch the application
	executable's name and use that.

Thu Sep 16 18:15:32 2004  Manish Singh  <yosh@gimp.org>

	* glib/gstrfuncs.c (g_strncasecmp): Make it take a guint for number
	of characters, instead of a gsize. Technically this is incorrect,
	but this makes it match the prototype, and this is a deprecated
	function anyway.

2004-09-15  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* glib/gwin32.c (g_win32_error_message): Convert message to
	UTF-8. Technically this breaks API, but the actual use cases in
	gdk/win32 have assumed it is UTF-8 anyway. Fix
	documentation. (#152618, Kazuki Iwamoto)

2004-09-14  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* glib/gwin32.h: Don't define ftruncate as a macro. Was never a
	good idea, and it clashes with newest mingw headers, which have a
	ftruncate implementation as an inline function. Thanks to Dominik R.

	* glib/gwin32.c (g_win32_ftruncate): Simplify implementation, just
	call _chsize() in the C library.

2004-09-08  Gora Mohanty  <gmohanty@cvs.gnome.org>

        * configure.in: Added 'or' to ALL_LINGUAS.
 
Mon Aug 30 00:01:01 2004  Matthias Clasen  <maclas@gmx.de>

	* glib/ghash.c (g_hash_table_lookup): Point to 
	g_hash_table_lookup_extended() for differentiation between
	not-found and value-is-NULL.  (#150960, Morten Welinder)

2004-08-21  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* glib/giowin32.c (g_io_win32_finalize): Tell select_thread to
	break out of its loop. Prevents a thread leak. (#147392, Peter
	Zelezny)

	* glib/gunicollate.c (g_utf8_collate_key): Guard against bogus
	return value from strxfrm(). For instance Microsoft's strxfrm()
	returns INT_MAX on errors. (#141124)

2004-08-19  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* glib/gunicollate.c (g_utf8_collate, g_utf8_collate_key): Correct
	source and destination charset parameter order in g_convert()
	call. (#150394, possibly also #141124)

2004-08-16  Christian Rose  <menthos@menthos.com>

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

2004-08-13  Matthias Clasen  <clasen@redhat.com>

	* configure.in: Post-release version bump.

        * === Released 2.4.6 ===

	* configure.in: Added nb to ALL_LINGUAS

Thu Aug 5 20:53:00 2004 Ray Strode <rstrode@redhat.com>
	
	* glib/gutils.h (g_get_codeset): strdup result so caller
	doesn't free internally managed memory.

Sat Jul 31 20:33:07 2004  Matthias Clasen  <maclas@gmx.de>

	* tests/shell-test.c: Include a test involving consecutive
	backslashes followed by a non-escaped doublequote.
	
	* glib/gshell.c (tokenize_command_line): Count consecutive
	backslashes mod 2 to detect escaped doubleqotes.  (#127306)

2004-07-30  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* configure.in: Bump version.

	* === Released 2.4.5 ===

	* NEWS: Updates 

2004-07-30  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* glib/gconvert.c (g_unescape_uri_string): Don't validate
	for UTF-8 here.  (#148420, Robert Ögren)

	* tests/uri-test.c (run_roundtrip_tests): Add tests for 
	roundtrip compatibility. Going from filename to uri and 
	back should always give you the same filename back. 

2004-07-28  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* tests/markups/valid-{9,10,11}.gmarkup: 
	* tests/markups/fail-{37,38,39}.gmarkup: Tests for handling
	of whitespace inside tags.

	* glib/gmarkup.c (enum GMarkupParseState): Add 
	STATE_AFTER_ATTRIBUTE_NAME and STATE_AFTER_CLOSE_TAG_NAME.
	(g_markup_parse_context_parse): Accept whitespace between
	attribute names, '=' and attribute values and between
	close tag name and '>'. (#148646, Hiroyuki Ikezoe)

Sat Jul 24 17:50:07 2004  Soeren Sandmann  <sandmann@daimi.au.dk>

	* glib/gstrfuncs.c (g_strsplit_set):
	s/g_strtokenize/g_strsplit_set/ in docs.

Fri Jul 23 10:40:43 2004  Matthias Clasen  <maclas@gmx.de>

	* tests/type-test.c (main): Actually test G_MAXSIZE with a 
	gsize variable.

Thu Jul  8 00:51:30 2004  Matthias Clasen  <maclas@gmx.de>

	* glib/gi18n.h: Remove the ENABLE_NLS check, since GLib can't
	be built without anyway.  (#135899, Murray Cumming)

2004-07-21  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	Fix #132858, Sven Neumann, patch by James Henstridge:

	get installed into auxdir.

	* Makefile.am (gettext_SCRIPTS): install mkinstalldirs.

2004-07-21  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	Fix #147651, reported by Oliver Guntermann:

	* glib/gprintfint.h (_g_vasprintf): Don't wrap vasprintf(),
	_g_gnulib_vasprintf() in a macro, since they behave 
	differently wrt. to memory allocation.

	* glib/gprintf.c (g_vasprintf): Instead, differentiate 
	here between the three cases: system vasprintf(), 
	_g_gnulib_vasprintf(), no vasprintf().  

2004-07-09  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* configure.in: Use a small test library instead of
	libpthread.so for testing RTLD_GLOBAL brokenness.  (#139567,
	Julio M. Merino Vidal)

2004-03-21  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* glib/gutils.c (g_path_get_dirname): Fix Win32 behaviour in some
	cases where a drive letter is present. For 'a:' or 'a:foo', return
	'a:.'. This is mostly just for consistency with the behaviour
	without a drive letter. But very important is to for 'a:\foo' or
	'a:\', return 'a:\', and not 'a:'. (Ditto for forward slashes
	instead of backslashes.) (#137316)

	* tests/dirname-test.c (main): More complete testing on Win32. If
	a test fails, include expected and actual result in error message.

Fri Mar 19 15:21:09 2004  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* configure.in: Define HAVE_INT64_AND_I64 also in the mingw (gcc
	on Win32) case, where the 64-bit type is called long long, but the
	system printf/scanf format modifier for 64-bit integers is still I64.

2004-03-16  Gareth Owen  <gowen72@yahoo.com>

	* configure.in: Added en_GB to ALL_LINGUAS
