path: root/gmodule/ChangeLog

2005-07-09  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

	* Makefile.am: Don't use the scripts in build/win32 to compile
	gmodule.rc into a resource object file. (This means we lose the
	build number increment magic, but I doubt it was that useful
	anyway.) Instead use windres directly. To pass the normal .o file
	produced by windres through libtool, which wants .lo files, pass
	it directly to the linker using a -Wl option.

	* gmodule.rc.in: Thus replace BUILDNUMBER with 0.

2005-07-08  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>
	
	* === Released 2.7.2 ===

2005-06-30  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* === Released 2.7.1 ===

2005-06-30  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* gmodule-ar.c: Include stdlib.h

2005-06-26  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

	* Makefile.am: libtool installs/uninstalls the import library, no
	need to do it ourselves. Do still install/uninstall the .def file,
	though.

2005-06-24  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@novell.com>

	* Makefile.am (install-libtool-import-lib): Current GNU tools do
	understand the PRIVATE keyword.

2005-06-10  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* === Released 2.7.0 ===

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

	* === Released 2.6.1 ===

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

	* gmodule.c (g_module_open): It's wrong to call g_file_test() with
	more than one test (both G_FILE_TEST_EXISTS and _IS_REGULAR). (It
	would succeed even if the pathname existed as a nonregular file.)
	Just G_FILE_TEST_IS_REGULAR works fine. (#162594)

2004-12-16  Matthias Clasen  <mclasen@redhat.com>

	* === Released 2.6.0 ===
	
2004-12-06  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

2004-11-04  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_open): Argument is in UTF-8. Use wide
	character Win32 API if present.

	* gmodule.c (parse_libtool_archive, g_module_open): Convert file
	name to UTF-8 before storing in the error message string.

	* gmodule.c (parse_libtool_archive): Use g_open().

	(#141159, Michael Wilson)

2004-03-31  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path): On Cygwin, use the "cyg"
	prefix, and accept also the normal "lib". (#138403, Roger Leigh)

Tue Feb 24 14:09:21 2004  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* === Released 2.3.3 ===

Sun Feb 22 02:28:43 2004  Matthias Clasen  <maclas@gmx.de>

	Bug #85930, Laurent Vivier:
	
	* gmodule-ar.c: Implementation of native module management for AIX.
	* gmoduleconf.h.in: 
	* gmodule.c: Support gmodule-ar.c 

2003-01-01  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path): Use g_ascii_strcasecmp().

Tue Dec  3 20:56:19 2002  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* gmodule.c (g_module_open): Properly refcount the
	main module if it is already open. (#98648)

Sat Mar  2 14:46:17 2002  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* gmodule-beos.c (_g_module_build_path) * gmodule-dyld.c (_g_module_build_path) 
	  gmodule-dl.c (_g_module_build_path): Use G_MODULE_SUFFIX rather than
	a hardcoded ".so". (#72803)

Sun Feb 17 18:15:22 2002  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* gmodule.c (g_module_open): Fix typo when checking
	if file + module_suffix exists. (Miroslaw Dobrzanski-Neumann,
	#71801)

2001-11-24  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* Makefile.am: Remove rule for testgmodule.exp, too.

2001-11-22  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* gmodule-win32.c: Current w32api headers do include tlhelp32.h,
	so no need to have an extract from it here.

Mon Nov 19 16:12:12 2001  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* Makefile.am makefile.msc.in makefile.mingw.in: Remove
	testgmodule and associated plugin files; we don't need _both_ this
	and ../tests/module-test.c

2001-11-16  Michael Meeks  <michael@ximian.com>

	* gmodule.c (parse_libtool_archive): fix leak.

2001-10-30  Dan Winship  <danw@ximian.com>

	* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add gmodule-dyld.c

2001-10-23  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* Makefile.am: (Win32): If we have built the MSVC import library,
	install it. Install the gcc import library. Also support
	uninstall.

2001-10-09  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path): More Unix compatibility:
	Add "lib" prefix in case the module name doesn't already have it,
	except if it ends with ".dll" (in which case it probably already
	is the name of an existing DLL). This is needed for instance for
	the gdk-pixbuf loaders, which are called "lib*.dll", but
	gdk-pixbuf-io calls g_module_build_path without the "lib" prefix.

2001-10-03  jacob berkman  <jacob@ximian.com>

	* libgplugin_a.c: (gplugin_a_module_func): 
	* gmodule.h: s/retrive/retrieve/

2001-09-25  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* makefile.mingw.in: Fix missing end @ in @LT_CURRENT@.

	* makefile.msc.in: Use same DLL and import library names as
	libtool.
	
2001-09-19  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* gmodule.rc.in: Correct InternalName and OriginalFilename to
	match what we actually produce.

2001-09-18  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* Makefile.am: On Win32, pass a dummy -rpath flag to libtool when
	building libgplugin_[ab].la, otherwise libtool doesn't create a
	DLL, but a static archive.

2001-07-20  Hans Breuer  <hans@breuer.org>

	* makefile.msc.in : reflect glib move

2001-05-21  Mark Murnane  <Mark.Murnane@ireland.sun.com>

	* gmodule.c (g_str_check_suffix):  Modified type of string_len
	and suffix_len to be gsize.  Properly accommodates return from
	strlen().

2001-05-29  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* gmodule.c (g_module_set_error_unduped): Do not g_strdup, as
	promised in the function name.

Tue May 29 12:57:51 2001  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* gmodule.c (g_module_symbol): erk, strconcat needs NULL as last arg.
	make sure we pass module name with suffix into backend open.

Mon May 28 20:19:25 2001  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* gmodule.c (g_module_open): as a last resort, if we can't access()
	the module, leave it up to the platform backends to find it.
	(fixes implicit search patch loading i broke with my last
	commit, spotted by Padraig O'Briain).

Thu May 24 03:43:12 2001  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* gmodule.c (g_module_open): reordered code so we have a single
	module loading point (for reliable error messages). do access()
	tests to figure plausible file names.
	make error messages more verbose so users canfigure what's going on.

2001-04-20  Dan Winship  <danw@ximian.com>

	* gmodule-dyld.c: gmodule implementation for Darwin/Mac OS X

	* gmodule.c: 
	* gmoduleconf.h.in: Add gmodule-dyld support

	* testgmodule.c (main): Fix spelling

2001-03-13  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	From Edward M. Lee  <tailbert@yahoo.com>:

	* gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path): use (cygwin friendly) dir
	separator.

2001-03-12  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* Makefile.am (libgplugin_a_la_LIBADD, libgplugin_b_la_LIBADD):
	Link with the libgmodule la only on Win32.

2001-03-10  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* Makefile.am: Use the _LIBADD dependency on libglib only on the
	Win32 platform (including Cygwin).

2001-03-07  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* Makefile.am, makefile.mingw.in, makefile.msc.in: Set
	G_LOG_DOMAIN to \"GModule\" instead of g_log_domain_gmodule.

	* gmodule.def, gmodule.h, gmodule.c: Removed g_log_domain_gmodule.

2001-02-21  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* gmodule.h: Use G_BEGIN_DECLS and G_END_DECLS. Define
	G_MODULE_EXPORT correctly on Cygwin, too.

	* gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_open): Convert path to Windows format
	on Cygwin.

	* Makefile.am (libglib): Use libglib-1.3.la from
	top_builddir. Invoke libtool with -no-undefined for Win32 and
	Cygwin.

2001-02-17  Havoc Pennington  <hp@pobox.com>

        Applied patch from Soeren Sandmann:
	
	* gmodule.c (g_module_error): G_CONST_RETURN
	(g_module_name): G_CONST_RETURN

Sat Feb 17 07:27:15 2001  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* gmodule.c: work around platforms that have broken RTLD_GLOBAL.

2001-01-27  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* gmodule.c: (Win32) Need <io.h> for open() and close().

2000-12-22  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* gmodule.c: Make g_module_open more tolerant wrt to the module
	name. First it tries to open the module as named, if that fails,
	it checks, whether it is a libtool archive and parses it, if that
	fails it appends the systems shared library suffix
	(i.e. ".so") (if not already found) and tries again and if that
	fails it tries to append the ".la" libtool suffix (if not already
	found) and parses it.

	* gmodule.c: Lock recursive mutex during most module functions for
	safety.

	* gmodule-dl.c: Return an error from _g_module_symbol only, if
	dlerror says so. All other functions return an error as well, if
	dlerror returns NULL.

	* testgmodule.c: Thanks to the above change the #ifdefs have
	vanished.

2000-10-15  Raja R Harinath  <harinath@cs.umn.edu>

	* Makefile.am (BUILT_EXTRA_DIST): New variable.
	(dist-hook): Handle $(BUILT_EXTRA_DIST).

2000-09-28  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* gmodule.h: Moved declaration of g_log_domain_gmodule up before
	the inclusion of glib.h to make it compile on non-gcc compilers.

2000-07-22  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* makefile.mingw.in: Remove leftover gmodule-win32res.o stuff. The
	build-dll script automagically handles resources.

2000-07-20  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* libgplugin_a.c, testgmodule.c: Use g_path_get_basename instead
	of the deprecated g_basename.

2000-07-19  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* gmodule.h: include glib.h before doing extern "C". Makes some C++
	compiler happy. Reported by Denis Vakatov
	<vakatov@peony.nlm.nih.gov>.

2000-07-19  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* gmodule-win32.c: Don't #include <tlhelp32.h> when compiling with
	gcc, as it isn't provided. Declaration of a needed struct (from
	www.microsoft.com) inserted instead.

2000-05-13  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* makefile.mingw.in: New file, with gmodule stuff
	moved from ../makefile.mingw.in.

	* Makefile.am: Add to EXTRA_DIST, and add rule to make makefile.mingw.

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

	* gmodule-win32.c: No need to include <psapi.h>

2000-03-23  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_symbol): When looking for symbols in
	the "main" module we must search both the main program and all
	currently loaded DLLs. Not only the main program, or even just the
	DLLs loaded as gmodules.  Libglade requires this.

	Thus we need to get a list of all modules in the current
	process. There are two alternative APIs to do this: PSAPI and
	Toolhelp. The former is only available on NT (including Win2k),
	the latter on Win9x and Win2k. Check which one works, and use
	that.

	First check for the symbol in the main program, and if not found
	there, in all the modules.

	Code for using PSAPI and Toolhelp was borrowed from the Dr. Mingw
	tool written by José Fonseca <em96115@fe.up.pt>. Thanks.

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

	* gmodule-win32.c: Call g_win32_error_message() to get the error
	message strings.

	* libgplugin_a.c
	* libgplugin_b.c
	* gmodule.c: Remove LibMain functions that were needed by LCC,
	which is not a supported compiler.

	* testgmodule.c (main): Test for G_MODULE_IMPL ==
	G_MODULE_IMPL_WIN32, not G_OS_WIN32.

	* gmoduleconf.h.win32: Remove LCC stuff from here, too. 

Wed Mar  1 05:34:47 2000  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* gmodule-beos.c (_g_module_symbol): do not return NULL symbols.

	* gmodule-os2.c: removed NetBSD specific defines.
	(_g_module_self): set an error message for unsupported behaviour.

	* gmodule-beos.c: many coding style fixups.
	(_g_module_open):
	(_g_module_self):
	(_g_module_close):
	(_g_module_symbol): bunch of memory leaks plugged.

	* gmodule-dl.c: make sure the error message returned from dlerror()
	is always != NULL, by using a wrapper function fetch_dlerror(). based
	on a patch to fix _g_module_symbol() for NetBSD from Scott Presnell
	<srp@zgi.com>.

	* gmodule-dld.c: minor indentation.

	* gmodule-win32.c: minor cleanups.

	* merges from glib-1-2.

Sat Feb 19 19:43:29 2000  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* testgmodule.c (main): added test to check that not yet bound symbols
	in shared libraries of the main module are retrievable, from David Gero.

2000-01-13  Martin Baulig  <martin@home-of-linux.org>

	* gmodule.c (g_module_open): Check whether `check_init' is not NULL
	before we attempt to call it.

Sun Oct  3 19:30:52 PDT 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>

	* gmodule.h
	* testgmodule.c: use G_OS stuff

Sat Jul 24 20:47:18 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* merged changes from GLib-1-2 branch.

1999-05-06  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* gmodule.c: Remove LibMain.

Sat May  1 10:58:57 PDT 1999 Manish Singh <yosh@gimp.org>

	* Makefile.am: use -avoid-version and -module for test plugins

Mon Apr 19 08:43:59 1999  ape@lrdpf.spacetec.no  (Asbjorn Pettersen)

	* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add gmodule-os2.c

Wed Apr  7 20:12:58 1999  ape@lrdpf.spacetec.no  (Asbjorn Pettersen)

	* gmodule-os2.c: OS/2 specific file for gmodule.
	* gmodule.c (_g_module_open): Add gmodule-os2.c if G_MODULE_IMPL_OS2.
	* gmoduleconf.h.in: Add G_MODULE_IMPL_OS2.

Fri Apr 23 09:03:48 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* gmodule.c (g_module_symbol): removed inline variable assignment.
	s/CHECK_ERROR/SUPPORT_OR_RETURN/ to make the code more self descriptive.

Wed Feb 10 12:06:30 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* gmodule.c (CHECK_ERROR): be more descriptive on unsupported systems.

Wed Feb 10 07:56:33 1999  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* gmodule.c (g_module_error): fixed errernerous code wrt to thread
	specific error string allocation handling.

Thu Jan 21 12:40:11 EST 1999  Jeff Garzik  <jgarzik@pobox.com>

	* gmodule-dl.c (_g_module_build_path):
	Add braces to eliminate an ambiguous else warning.

1999-01-16  Tor Lillqvist  <tml@iki.fi>

	* gmodule-dl.c gmodule-dld.c: In
 	_g_module_build_path, don't add the "lib" prefix and
 	".so" or ".sl" suffix if already there.

	* gmodule-win32.c: Likewise for the ".dll" suffix.

1998-12-10  Sebastian Wilhelmi  <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>

	* gmodule.c: Made it MT safe, the g_module_error() is now thread
	specific.

Fri Nov 20 14:43:44 1998  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* gmodule.c (_g_module_build_path): added empty default imlementation
	so gmodule.so compiles on systems that are not yet supported, fix from
	Erik Bagfors <bagfors@hpc2n.umu.se>.

1998-11-13  Nuno Ferreira  <nmrf@rnl.ist.utl.pt>

	* Makefile.am (INCLUDES): The previous commit message is wrong
	about the -I$(top_srcdir) being redundant. I put it back.

Wed Nov 11 23:23:22 EST 1998 Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>

	* Makefile.am : INCLUDES is the right way to add to CFLAGS, not 
	DEFS.  Also there are bugs with '+=' in makefiles.
	Got rid of DEFS line by moving G_LOG_DOMAIN setting into INCLUDES.
	Removed redundant -I from INCLUDES.

Tue Oct 27 04:00:11 1998  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* testgmodule.c (main): changed the #ifdef WIN32 test to NATIVE_WIN32,
	this needs to be more constistent throughout the code, do we go for
	NATIVE_WIN32 or WIN32?

	* gmodule.c (LibMain): special cased the #ifdef __LCC__ case for
	NATIVE_WIN32, since lcc maybe used on other platforms as well.
	* libgplugin_a.c (LibMain): 
	* libgplugin_b.c (LibMain): 
	likewise. not sure i like this special requirement for lcc in here.

	* gmodule-dl.c (_g_module_build_path): 
	feature empty "" directories and prepend the module name with "lib".

	* gmodule-dld.c (_g_module_build_path): 
	* gmodule-win32.c (_g_module_build_path): 
	feature empty "" directories.

	* we need some more magic in the _g_module_build_path variants
	so we don't append/prepend lib and .so, .sl or .dll for those names
	that already contain it.

	* applied patch from Tor Lillqvist for g_module_build_path() and
	windows support.

1998-10-20: Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>

	* gmodule/gmodule-win32.c:
	New file.

	* gmodule/gmodule.c gmodule/gmodule.h:
	Added the funcion g_module_build_path that builds the path to
	a module file, decorating the name according to the system's
	conventions.  Added the Windows implementation.

	* gmodule/libgplugin_a.c gmodule/libgplugin_b.c:
	Added LibMain for LCC-Win32.

	* gmodule/testgmodule.c:
	Handle Windows dll names.

1998-10-25  Raja R Harinath  <harinath@cs.umn.edu>

	* gmodule.h: Remove `#pragma }'.
	* gmoduleconf.h.in: Likewise.

Wed Oct 21 19:58:27 1998  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* gmodule.c (g_module_symbol): fixed a string pointer bug that could
 	cause garbage error messages from g_module_symbol() for systems that
	NEED_USCORE.

Mon Sep 21 01:54:48 1998  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* gmodule.h: 
	* gmodule.c: renamed old _de_init functionality to _unload.
	modules are now expected to export:
	G_MODULE_EXPORT const gchar* g_module_check_init (GModule *module);
	and
	G_MODULE_EXPORT void g_module_unload (GModule *module);
	returning a string other than NULL from g_module_check_init() will
 	prevent the module from being loaded. a call to g_module_make_resident()
	from g_module_unload() will prevent the module from being unloaded and
	still make it resident.

Thu Sep 17 06:34:22 1998  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* gmodule.h: 
	* gmodule.c: implemented g_module_make_resident() which can be
	used to make modules resident.
	fixed a buglet about the optional "g_module_de_init" function in
	modules, which could get invoked twice on very obscure occasions.

Tue Sep 15 14:57:30 1998  Owen Taylor  <otaylor@redhat.com>

	* Makefile.am: Update to libtool-1.2b,
	change library versioning scheme to drop LT_RELEASE
	from the -l line, while keeping it in the soname.

Thu Aug 20 07:08:16 1998  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* gmodule.c: provide no operation implementation for the underlying
	_g_module_* functions, so we at least compile on systems that have
 	neither of G_MODULE_IMPL_DL or G_MODULE_IMPL_DLD.

Mon Aug 17 03:41:52 1998  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* gmodule.h:
	* gmodule.c (g_module_open): changed the return type for the
	GModuleCheckInit function to be a string, describing the error
	condition.
	(g_module_symbol): show the failing symbol on error messages.

	* Makefile.am: feature the G_LOG_DOMAIN macro to set the log domain
	to "GModule" upon compilation. we currently have to add this definition
	to the DEFS variable.
	* testgmodule.c: we need an ugly #undef G_LOG_DOMAIN at the start
	of this file currently, since automake doesn't support per target
	_CFLAGS yet.

	* gmodule.c: minor changes to internal interface.
	* gmodule-dl.c: 
	* gmodule-dld.c: put some comments into the files, and provided
	better error checking for shl_findsym(). whish i had a system to
 	test this stuff on.

	* Makefile.am (lib_LTLIBRARIES): for now, skip the dependency on
	-lglib for libgmodule-1.1.la, libgplugin_a.la and libgplugin_b.la
	since this clashes with inter-library-dependencies for not installed
	libraries. glib-config takes care of this for the usuall case, but
	there needs to be a better way...

	* testgmodule.c: test program for GModule.
	* libgplugin_a.c: 
	* libgplugin_b.c: test plugins for testgmodule.c.

	* gmodule.h: 
	* gmodule.c: GModule library implementation, which is basically
	a wrapper about system specifc dynamic loading facilities.
