---------------------
Overview of changes in Glib 1.307 (stable)
==========================================
* Fix hang of t/9.t on FreeBSD/NetBSD perls not built with "-pthread";
closes RT#82349
* Add code comments about the peculiar Glib::InitiallyUnowned sink handling
Overview of changes in Glib 1.306 (stable)
==========================================
* Fix libpthread-related building issues on OpenBSD
Overview of changes in Glib 1.305 (stable)
==========================================
* Disable the warning message when handing callbacks over to the main loop.
Do it for all packages that
* mention perl, or
* have a directory name starting with p5-*, or
* depend on a package starting with p5-
like last time, for 5.18, where this didn't lead to complaints.
Let me know if you have any this time.
Overview of changes in Glib 1.304 (stable)
==========================================
* Fix compilation against glib < 2.34.0.
Overview of changes in Glib 1.303 (stable)
==========================================
* Revert the change to ref counting of initial wrappers of custom subclasses,
introduced in Glib 1.300. It caused issues with subclasses inheriting from
Glib::InitiallyUnowned.
* Fix a test failure with perl >= 5.19.4.
* Create a GType for GSpawnFlags and register it with the bindings.
Overview of changes in Glib 1.302 (stable)
==========================================
* Avoid misusing the macro PL_na, thus preventing issues when Glib is used in
conjunction with certain XS modules, among them XML::Parser and
String::Approx.
* Avoid memory corruption when registering boxed synonyms repeatedly.
Overview of changes in Glib 1.301 (stable)
==========================================
* t/options.t: skip tests in non-UTF-8 locales; fixes RT#83490
Overview of changes in Glib 1.300 (stable)
==========================================
* Stable release to coincide with the release of Perl 5.18.0
Since 1.28x (The previous stable release)
-----------------------------------------
* Ensure timely destruction of initial wrapper of custom subclasses
* Start changing module version numbers in all Perl modules in the
distribution, not just lib/Glib.pm; (Bugzilla #690464)
* Make Glib::Object subclassing more robust. This should in particular fix
issues revealed by the change to hash randomization introduced in perl
5.17.6.
* Correctly handle utf8-encoded strings in GPerlArgv. This should fix issues
seen with utf8-encoded strings in @ARGV with, for example, Gtk2->init.
Overview of changes in Glib 1.291 (unstable)
============================================
* Ensure timely destruction of initial wrapper of custom subclasses
* Start changing module version numbers in all Perl modules in the
distribution, not just lib/Glib.pm; (Bugzilla #690464)
Overview of changes in Glib 1.290 (unstable)
============================================
* Make Glib::Object subclassing more robust. This should in particular fix
issues revealed by the change to hash randomization introduced in perl
5.17.6.
* Correctly handle utf8-encoded strings in GPerlArgv. This should fix issues
seen with utf8-encoded strings in @ARGV with, for example, Gtk2->init.
Overview of changes in Glib 1.280 (stable)
==========================================
Since 1.26x (the previous stable series)
----------------------------------------
* Correctly handle the boxed type for GError.
* Ensure that custom signal marshallers are always used irregardless of
the spelling used for the signal name.
* Make the stack handling of some marshallers more robust, in
preparation for custom Glib::Boxed converters that call back into
Perl code.
* Add new C API gperl_register_boxed_synonym.
Since 1.270
-----------
* Fix building with perl <= 5.14.
Overview of changes in Glib 1.270 (unstable)
============================================
* Correctly handle the boxed type for GError.
* Ensure that custom signal marshallers are always used irregardless of the
spelling used for the signal name.
* Make the stack handling of some marshallers more robust, in
preparation for custom Glib::Boxed converters that call back into Perl
code.
* Add new C API gperl_register_boxed_synonym.
a) refer 'perl' in their Makefile, or
b) have a directory name of p5-*, or
c) have any dependency on any p5-* package
Like last time, where this caused no complaints.
Overview of changes in Glib 1.262 (stable)
==========================================
* Properly specify our dependencies.
* Distriubte a missing test file.
Overview of changes in Glib 1.261 (stable)
==========================================
* Add NEWS entries comparing 1.260 to 1.24x
* Add the 64 bit integer converters to the linker exports
* updated README file similar to Cairo (RT#74870)
* Created %meta_merge which follows v2 of meta-spec
Overview of changes in Glib 1.260 (stable)
==========================================
* Tell CPAN to ignore POD fragments in Makefile.PL
* Document that SOURCE_CONTINUE and _REMOVE can be exported
Overview of changes in Glib 1.253
=================================
* Export the constants SOURCE_CONTINUE and SOURCE_REMOVE on request.
(RT #48070)
* Create and register a GType for GConnectFlags.
Overview of changes in Glib 1.252
=================================
* Make the recent thread-safety improvements work for non-threaded perls too.
Overview of changes in Glib 1.251
=================================
* Make signal marshalling more thread-safe. When a signal handler is invoked
from a foreign thread without associated Perl interpreter, hand the
marshalling over to the main loop which in turn later wakes up the main
thread and lets it handle the request. Since this approach is experimental,
there is debug print for now whenever it is used:
*** GPerl asked to invoke callback from a foreign thread;
handing it over to the main loop
Overview of changes in Glib 1.250
=================================
* Add a fallback implementation of SvMAGIC_set; Bugzilla bug #665266
* Avoid a syntax error on older perls
* Glib::Object: make ref-counting compatible with perl >= 5.16 (RT#73650)
* Fix some typos in POD (RT#73616)
Overview of changes in Glib 1.242
=================================
* Glib::GenPod: fix typo in default pspec values
(https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=665331)
* Glib::GenPod: delete a duplicate key in %basic_types
(https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=665332)
* Change the FSF's address in all GPL license notices (RT#72664)
Overview of changes in Glib 1.241
=================================
* Register the boxed type Glib::GString, based almost completely on a patch by
Emmanuel Rodriguez (https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=663881).
* Fix linking against perl < 5.9.4 on some platforms; Do not use
SvREFCNT_inc_simple_void_NN as that was introduced in perl 5.9.4, which came
after the 5.8.0 we require.
Overview of changes in Glib 1.240
=================================
Since 1.22x (the previous stable series)
----------------------------------------
* Add Glib::Param::GType support.
* Add Glib::Log->set_default_handler() and
Glib::Log::default_handler().
* Add Glib::ParamSpec->override() and get_redirect_target().
* Add Glib::Param->get_default_value().
* Support the fundamental type Glib::GType.
* Correctly handle variables with "magic" attached, like tied
variables.
* Don't copy boxed objects when passing from Perl to C.
Since 1.233
-----------
* Nada.
Overview of changes in Glib 1.233
=================================
* Change the way we handle objects with floating references again, to be more
compatible.
Overview of changes in Glib 1.232
=================================
* In the documentation generated by Glib::GenPod, show default values for
properties.
* Correctly handle objects which have floating references.
* When checking whether a variable is a reference, correctly account for "get
magic", which occurs for example for tied variables. Add gperl_sv_is_ref for
other bindings to use.
Overview of changes in Glib 1.231
=================================
* Add Glib::Log->set_default_handler() and Glib::Log::default_handler().
* Add Glib::ParamSpec->override() and get_redirect_target().
* Add Glib::Param->get_default_value().
* Make Glib::ParamSpec->value_validate() copy boxed objects if necessary.
* Support the fundamental type Glib::GType.
* Correctly store and look up custom signal marshallers.
* Fix fetching default values for unichar properties of custom subclasses.
* Fix subclassing with {pspec, get, set}-style properties.
* Allow the Glib::Object "magic" to coexist with other extensions' "magic".
* Make Glib::GenPod create docs for child and style properties.
* Improve the documentation in a few places.
* Fix a few build and test failures.
Overview of changes in Glib 1.230
=================================
* Don't copy boxed objects when passing from Perl to C. This mainly affects
Perl subclasses which have signal handlers that involve boxed objects and use
signal_chain_from_overridden() to call parent signal handlers. With this
change, the parent's handlers will now operator on the same object that the
Perl code sees, and changes consequently propagate properly.
* Correctly handle variables with "set" magic attached in the default
SET_PROPERTY implementation for custom Perl subclasses.
* Add Glib::Param::GType support.
* Make Glib::Flags::bool() and as_arrayref() callable as methods.
* Allow undef for default_value in Glib::ParamSpec->string.
* Improve the documentation in a few places.
* Add gperl_hv_take_sv, a wrapper for hv_store, to our C API.
* Fix some build and test failures.
to trigger/signal a rebuild for the transition 5.10.1 -> 5.12.1.
The list of packages is computed by finding all packages which end
up having either of PERL5_USE_PACKLIST, BUILDLINK_API_DEPENDS.perl,
or PERL5_PACKLIST defined in their make setup (tested via
"make show-vars VARNAMES=..."), minus the packages updated after
the perl package update.
sno@ was right after all, obache@ kindly asked and he@ led the
way. Thanks!
Overview of changes in Glib 1.222
=================================
* Properly handle slashes in copyright footers passed to Glib::MakeHelper.
* Fix a test failure on s390.
- Updating package for p5 Glib 2 bindings
- Setting license to gnu-gpl-v2.1

2008-10-19 Torsten Schoenfeld <kaffeetisch@gmx.de>
* Makefile.PL: ExtUtils::MakeMaker 6.46 removed support for
EXTRA_META in favor of the new META_MERGE and META_ADD. Adapt.
This changes the buildlink3.mk files to use an include guard for the
recursive include. The use of BUILDLINK_DEPTH, BUILDLINK_DEPENDS,
BUILDLINK_PACKAGES and BUILDLINK_ORDER is handled by a single new
variable BUILDLINK_TREE. Each buildlink3.mk file adds a pair of
enter/exit marker, which can be used to reconstruct the tree and
to determine first level includes. Avoiding := for large variables
(BUILDLINK_ORDER) speeds up parse time as += has linear complexity.
The include guard reduces system time by avoiding reading files over and
over again. For complex packages this reduces both %user and %sys time to
half of the former time.

gperl_param_spec_type_from_package on the package.
2008-10-19 Torsten Schoenfeld <kaffeetisch@gmx.de>
* Makefile.PL: ExtUtils::MakeMaker 6.46 removed support for
EXTRA_META in favor of the new META_MERGE and META_ADD. Adapt.

2008-09-07 Torsten Schoenfeld <kaffeetisch@gmx.de>
* GClosure.xs (gperl_callback_invoke): Instead of putting a mortal
copy of the user data on the stack, increment its ref count and
mortalize it. This ensure that modifications to $_[-1] in the
callback actually change the user data. Patch by Kevin Ryde.
* MANIFEST
* GObject.xs
* t/lazy-loader.t: Make sure the lazy loader can handle being
invoked on packages which aren't registered with the Glib type
system. This can happen when a non-registered package is setup to
inherit from a registered package, and when then some method is
invoked on the non-registered package. This gets rid of the
spurious "asked to lazy-load Foo, but that package is not
registered" warnings.

* GParamSpec.xs:
* GValue.xs: Handle NULL GParamSpecs in newSVGParamSpec by
returning undef. Consequently, remove the NULL handling in
_gperl_sv_from_value_internal. This partly reverts the commit
from 2008-08-18 and brings newSVGParamSpec in line with the other
SV* constructors.
* GObject.xs
* t/5.t: Fix the stack handling in Glib::Object::get to be robust
against stack movement due to reallocation. This can happen if a
subclass' GET_PROPERTY triggers a stack resize. Patch by Kevin
Ryde.

* README: Unstable release 1.192.
2008-08-31 Torsten Schoenfeld <kaffeetisch@gmx.de>
* MakeHelper.pm (postamble_docs_full): Fix the POD index
generation. For five months now, broken index pages (like
Glib::index) were being created due to shell command quoting
issues.
2008-08-23 Torsten Schoenfeld <kaffeetisch@gmx.de>
* GType.xs (gperl_convert_flag_one, gperl_convert_flags): Improve
the wording of the error messages for invalid flags a bit.
* t/4.t: Prettify a bit by using ok(), pass(), and fail()
functions.

GParamSpecs gracefully by returning undef.
* GParamSpec.xs (newSVGParamSpec): Croak on NULL GParamSpecs.
2008-08-17 Torsten Schoenfeld <kaffeetisch@gmx.de>
* GParamSpec.xs: Add hierarchy POD sections to the various
Glib::ParamSpec subclasses.
2008-08-16 Torsten Schoenfeld <kaffeetisch@gmx.de>

arguments.
* t/2.t: Fix a typo uncovered by the above change.
2008-07-13 Torsten Schoenfeld <kaffeetisch@gmx.de>
* GType.xs
* t/c.t: In the overloaded flags operators, don't choke on undef
in the swap argument. This happens when a normal 'x' operator is
used for handling 'x='. Patch by Kevin Ryde.

Overview of changes in Glib 1.182
=================================
* Fix build and test suite issues, especially on MSWin32 and cygwin.
Overview of changes in Glib 1.181
=================================
* Fix Makefile.PL problems encountered by CPAN testers.
Overview of changes in Glib 1.180
=================================
Since 1.16x (the previous stable series)
----------------------------------------
* Add Glib::MakeHelper::get_configure_requires_yaml.
* Add Glib::Object::signal_get_invocation_hint.
* Make our lazy-loader compatible with perl-5.10.0.
* Allow Perl-derived GObjects to override GInterfaces that are implemented by
parent classes.
* Correct the way we check values for definedness: use the new function
gperl_sv_is_defined. For convenience, also add gperl_sv_is_array_ref,
gperl_sv_is_code_ref, and gperl_sv_is_hash_ref.
Since 1.174
-----------
* Tell the compiler to always look for our headers in '.' first.
* Add a hyphen to the NAME section of generated POD indices.
Overview of changes in Glib 1.174
=================================
* Increase compatibility with different `make´s by not using Makefile
conditionals for building our documentation.
Overview of changes in Glib 1.173
=================================
* Make Glib::Type::list_values return the value of each enum/flags entry in
addition to the name and nickname.
Overview of changes in Glib 1.172
=================================
* Make inproper usage of Glib::Object methods result in an error message and
not in a segfault.
* Add Glib::Object::signal_get_invocation_hint.
* In our lazy-loading machinery for packages, change the way we clear @ISA
arrays to avoid problems with perl 5.10.0.
* Add new helpers to the C API: gperl_sv_is_defined, gperl_sv_is_array_ref,
gperl_sv_is_code_ref, and gperl_sv_is_hash_ref.
* Allow Perl-derived GObjects to override GInterfaces that are implemented by
parent classes.
* Load GInterface types immediately, instead of lazily. This makes sure
GInterfaces are set up by the time they are needed.
Overview of changes in Glib 1.171
=================================
* Correct the way we check values for definedness: add gperl_sv_defined(), an
XS version of perl's defined(), and use it everywhere. Among other things,
this should fix the problems where tied values were reported as undefined.
* Fix some build issues.
Overview of changes in Glib 1.170
=================================
* Make our build output prettier.
* Add Glib::MakeHelper::get_configure_requires_yaml.

publicize our Makefile.PL-time requirements.
* Try to fix some portability issues.
Overview of changes in Glib 1.164
=================================
* Allow Perl-derived GObjects to override GInterfaces that are implemented by

and add a new helper target and script, "show-buildlink3", that outputs
a listing of the buildlink3.mk files included as well as the depth at
which they are included.
For example, "make show-buildlink3" in fonts/Xft2 displays:
zlib
fontconfig
iconv
zlib
freetype2
expat
freetype2
Xrender
renderproto
RECOMMENDED is removed. It becomes ABI_DEPENDS.
BUILDLINK_RECOMMENDED.foo becomes BUILDLINK_ABI_DEPENDS.foo.
BUILDLINK_DEPENDS.foo becomes BUILDLINK_API_DEPENDS.foo.
BUILDLINK_DEPENDS does not change.
IGNORE_RECOMMENDED (which defaulted to "no") becomes USE_ABI_DEPENDS
which defaults to "yes".
Added to obsolete.mk checking for IGNORE_RECOMMENDED.
I did not manually go through and fix any aesthetic tab/spacing issues.
I have tested the above patch on DragonFly building and packaging
subversion and pkglint and their many dependencies.
I have also tested USE_ABI_DEPENDS=no on my NetBSD workstation (where I
have used IGNORE_RECOMMENDED for a long time). I have been an active user
of IGNORE_RECOMMENDED since it was available.
As suggested, I removed the documentation sentences suggesting bumping for
"security" issues.
As discussed on tech-pkg.
I will commit to revbump, pkglint, pkg_install, createbuildlink separately.
Note that if you use wip, it will fail! I will commit to pkgsrc-wip
later (within day).
developer is officially maintaining the package.
The rationale for changing this from "tech-pkg" to "pkgsrc-users" is
that it implies that any user can try to maintain the package (by
submitting patches to the mailing list). Since the folks most likely
to care about the package are the folks that want to use it or are
already using it, this would leverage the energy of users who aren't
developers.
Overview of changes in Glib 1.103
=================================
* Fix a crash that occured when properties of undead objects were modified.
[muppet]
* Fix the undead object macros to work on 64-bit platforms. [Rafael
Garcia-Suarez]
* Completely redo the way GObject types are mapped to package names. This
fixes the problem uncovered by the recent GInitiallyUnowned issue.
* Allow undef for some arguments in the Glib::KeyFile API. [Emmanuele]
file's sole purpose was to provide a dependency on pkg-config and set
some environment variables. Instead, turn pkg-config into a "tool"
in the tools framework, where the pkg-config wrapper automatically
adds PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR to the environment before invoking the real
pkg-config.
For all package Makefiles that included pkg-config/buildlink3.mk, remove
that inclusion and replace it with USE_TOOLS+=pkg-config.
