Closes GNOME/glibmm#57 2020-03-14 Kjell Ahlstedt <kjellahlstedt@gmail.com> README: Describe building with Meson and Autotools 2020-03-12 Kjell Ahlstedt <kjellahlstedt@gmail.com> Gio::DBus::Message::get_unix_fd_list(): Add refreturn Fixes #68 2020-03-12 Kjell Ahlstedt <kjellahlstedt@gmail.com> glibmmconfig.h.in: Add GLIBMM_CAN_USE_THREAD_LOCAL for non-Windows builds Define GLIBMM_CAN_USE_THREAD_LOCAL, if its config test program succeeds. 2020-03-12 Chun-wei Fan <fanchunwei@src.gnome.org> m4: Apply function decoration more thoroughly Apparently more items in the generated code must be marked with the function decoration that is specified, otherwise the exported symbols will not be complete. 2020-03-12 Chun-wei Fan <fanchunwei@src.gnome.org> meson: Do not allow static MSVC-style builds The Visual Studio build files never really supported static builds, so disallow that for now, until we can make sure that is tested better. 2020-03-12 Chun-wei Fan <fanchunwei@src.gnome.org> Drop gendef We are now using __declspec(dllexport) to export symbols from the glibmm and giomm DLLs, so we no longer need to have gendef around. 2020-03-12 Chun-wei Fan <fanchunwei@src.gnome.org> glibmm: Update glibmmconfig.h.[in|meson] for MSVC Drop all the compatibility bits for Visual Studio 2013 as Visual Studio 2013 does not have sufficient C++11 support to build glibmm. Make sure that we do enable GLIBMM_CAN_USE_THREAD_LOCAL as Visual Studio 2015 or later has thread_local, but we must also ensure that we do not mark DispatcherNotifier for export as a result, since thread_local conflicts with __declspec(dllexport). Also update for Visual Studio 2017+ as the compiler does allow static members to be initialized inline to std::string::npos (GLIBMM_HAVE_ALLOWS_STATIC_INLINE_NPOS), but use a work around for pre-Visual Studio 2017 so that we do not get a linker error as GLIBMM_HAVE_ALLOWS_STATIC_INLINE_NPOS is not supported. 2020-03-12 Chun-wei Fan <fanchunwei@src.gnome.org> Visual Studio builds: build giomm without gendef Make sure that we are defining GIOMM_API as __declspec(dllexport) when building giomm and so stop the use of gendef.exe. We are now ready to drop gendef from the glibmm sources. 2020-03-12 Chun-wei Fan <fanchunwei@src.gnome.org> gio/giomm/*.h: Mark classes and functions with GIOMM_API This prepares the build to use compiler directives to export symbols, in our bid to drop gendef.exe. 2020-03-12 Chun-wei Fan <fanchunwei@src.gnome.org> gio/src/*.hg: Mark classes and functions with GIOMM_API This prepares the build to export symbols using compiler directives, in our bid to drop gendef.exe. We will also mark pre-declarations of usage of glibmm class items with GLIBMM_API as well. 2020-03-12 Chun-wei Fan <fanchunwei@src.gnome.org> build: Do not use gendef.exe for glibmm Clean up the build files a bit and update the glibmmconfig.h.[in|meson] so that we use __declspec(dllexport) when GLIBMM_BUILD is defined (i.e. during the build of glibmm) on Visual Studio. Also, for the meson builds, disable warnings 4251 and 4275 as they all relate to building DLLs regarding symbol export, which is harmless as we know clearly that we are indeed building DLLs in our case, and we have already set GLIBMM_API appropriately 2020-03-09 Chun-wei Fan <fanchunwei@src.gnome.org> NMake Makefiles: Fix 'install' for Meson tarballs We need to look for headers from under untracked/ 2020-03-09 Chun-wei Fan <fanchunwei@src.gnome.org> glib/src: Decorate classes and methods with GLIBMM_API This prepares for us to export symbols using compiler directives, so that we can eventually retire gendef.exe. This also makes the scripts place GLIBMM_API as appropriate for the generated Glib:Error classes and the wrap() method. 2020-03-09 Chun-wei Fan <fanchunwei@src.gnome.org> tools: Allow generating Glib:Error class with decorations This allows one to export the generated Glib::Error class with decorations so that one may be able to use this to export it using compiler directives. Currently this only allows specifications that end with _API, and this also decorates the `friend wrap_init() method in the generated Glib::Error class 2020-03-09 Chun-wei Fan <fanchunwei@src.gnome.org> tools/m4: Allow one to decorate the generated wrap() prototype This allows the compiler to use the decoration macro to export those methods from the generated items 2020-03-09 Chun-wei Fan <fanchunwei@src.gnome.org> glib/glibmm/*.h: Mark classes and methods with GLIBMM_API This prepares the code to use __declspec(dllexport) to export all symbols, so that we can eventually bid farewell to gendf.exe 2020-03-07 Chun-wei Fan <fanchunwei@src.gnome.org> meson: Use /utf-8 for Visual Studio builds This way, we can avoid warning/error C4819 when building glibmm due to unicode handling issues in the compiler, which is likely to pop up on East Asian locales on Windows. We need to ignore warning C4828 when building gendef.exe though with this. 2020-03-05 Chun-wei Fan <fanchunwei@src.gnome.org> Revert "meson: Don't use `objects:` in glibmm, giomm" This reverts commit b03c6d558d912ab66cafac37d5c9fdd63e46d61b. Apparently that commit caused the g++ linker to optimize most of the items out from the final library. 2020-03-05 Chun-wei Fan <fanchunwei@src.gnome.org> meson: Don't use `objects:` in glibmm, giomm Instead, use or extend `link_with:` Please see: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glibmm/-/merge_requests/28#note_731510 2020-03-05 Chun-wei Fan <fanchunwei@src.gnome.org> MSVC NMake: Allow builds from Meson-generated tarballs This adds rules to the NMake Makefiles so that they can find the sources under $(srcroot)/untracked, and thus will not need to re-generate the sources. However, for builds from such tarballs, it is necessary to do 'nmake /f Makefile.vc CFG=$(CFG) prep-git-build' so that the resource scripts and config headers are generated, prior to performing the build. Please note that glibmm_generate_extra_defs-2.x is now built as a DLL with the NMake Makefiles as well. 2020-03-05 Chun-wei Fan <fanchunwei@src.gnome.org> glib/glibmmconfig.h.in: Define GLIBMM_CAN_USE_THREAD_LOCAL on MSVC Visual Studio 2015 (the minimum Visual Studio compiler that we can use for glibmm) supports this, so turn this on. 2020-03-05 Chun-wei Fan <fanchunwei@src.gnome.org> meson.build: Ignore warning C4146 Warning C4146 is often part-of-life when building items on Visual Studio, and since we are sure about the things we want to check for, we can ignore this too. 2020-03-04 Kjell Ahlstedt <kjellahlstedt@gmail.com> Add support for building glibmm with Meson glibmm can be built with either Autotools or Meson. These new files have been copied from the master branch, and some of them have been changed. The parts that concern Windows and MSVC have been created by Chun-wei Fan. See MR !28 2020-03-04 Chun-wei Fan <fanchunwei@src.gnome.org> tools: Fix 'meson dist' The former method of using gendef.exe to generate the import library for glibmm_generate_extra_defs somehow breaks 'meson dist' and builds from release tarballs, unless one builds giomm first. Fix this by using the __declspec(dll[ex|im]port) directives, since glibmm_generate_extra_defs is a simple utility library. 2020-03-04 Chun-wei Fan <fanchunwei@src.gnome.org> examples/thread/dispatcher.cc: Make C++17 compliant std::mem_fun() and std::unary() have been removed from C++17, so port away from using these. 2020-03-04 Chun-wei Fan <fanchunwei@src.gnome.org> glibmm_interface_move test: Avoid warnings in test_IFace_get_type() ...for Visual Studio builds, since we don't really get unused function warnings from the TEST_IFACE items. Plus, we don't have glib autoptr support in Visual Studio builds, either. 2020-03-04 Chun-wei Fan <fanchunwei@src.gnome.org> dbusconnection.ccg: Include giomm/unixfdlist.h on *NIX only In Meson builds, we don't even generate giomm/unixfdlist.h unless we are building for *nix, and we aren't using the items there on non-*nix builds. 2020-03-03 Kjell Ahlstedt <kjellahlstedt@gmail.com> Prepare existing files for building with Meson * examples/network/resolver.cc: Don't include config.h. It's not used. * glib/glibmm/ustring.cc: Check if GLIBMM_SIZEOF_WCHAR_T is defined. * tools/generate_wrap_init.pl.in: * tools/gmmproc.in: Change '\@' to '\ @'. Meson's configure_file() removes a backslash immediately before an at-sign. 2020-02-27 Chun-wei Fan <fanchunwei@src.gnome.org> generate-msvc.mak: Correct path to find gmmproc PERL modules The GLIBMM_MODULE_NAME should be glibmm-2.x, not giomm-2.x 2020-02-26 Chun-wei Fan <fanchunwei@src.gnome.org> NMake Makefiles: Add targets to ease build from GIT checkouts This will enable one to generate the following files: MSVC_NMake/glibmm/glibmmconfig.h MSVC_NMake/glibmm/glibmm.rc MSVC_NMake/giomm/giommconfig.h MSVC_NMake/giomm/giomm.rc when building from a GIT checkout. This will also enable one to generate the following files: tools/gmmproc tools/generate_wrap_init.pl from a GIT checkout or from a source tree unpacked from a release tarball so that one can use these to build directly from a GIT checkout using NMake, or to have gmmproc and generate_wrap_init.pl ready to use to build other -mm libraries. 2020-02-26 Chun-wei Fan <fanchunwei@src.gnome.org> README.win32: Mention that XML::Parser is required for builds from GIT The gmmproc PERL script actually requires the XML::Parser PERL module to be installed for the PERL interpreter. 2020-02-25 Chun-wei Fan <fanchunwei@src.gnome.org> NMake Makefiles: "Install" gmmproc items ...so that one may be able to use these in the future for other -mm packages. Also update the header installation as they could have been generated during the build. Update README.win32 to indicate building from a GIT checkout is better supported, and how one may carry this build out. 2020-02-25 Chun-wei Fan <fanchunwei@src.gnome.org> MSVC_NMake: Re-order build rules This way we can avoid re-compilation of wrap_init.cc sources in builds from a release tarball. 2020-02-25 Chun-wei Fan <fanchunwei@src.gnome.org> MSVC_NMake: Add rules to generate and build sources ...from a GIT checkout, from the various .ccg/.hg and the *.[cc|h].m4 sources, as well as the wrap_init.cc sources. This will obviously require PERL, as well as a Cygwin or MSYS installation that has a working m4 executable for Windows for this to work. Note that release tarballs continue to build on Visual Studio as they did before, without the need for PERL nor m4. Note that this does not yet support generating [glib|gio]mmconfig.h nor [glib|gio]mm.rc from their .in counterparts, as well as tools\gmmproc and tools\generate_wrap_init.pl, which will be done in a later commit. 2020-02-25 Chun-wei Fan <fanchunwei@src.gnome.org> MSVC_NMake: Avoid hard-coding versions Fix the update on building glibmm_generate_extra_defs-x.y.lib and just use macros instead, to ease maintenance. 2020-02-24 Chun-wei Fan <fanchunwei@src.gnome.org> NMake Makefiles: Use PDBVER instead of VSVER for toolset Since this is the C++-11 series of glibmm, and Visual Studio 2015~2019 share the same CRTs, let them all use the PDB version (v14) as binaries in this case should be interchangeable. For Visual Studio 2013, the PDB version is the same as VSVER (v12), so 2013 builds will remain separate. 2020-02-24 Chun-wei Fan <fanchunwei@src.gnome.org> NMake Makefiles: build glibmm_generate_extra_defs-2.4.lib Since this is entirely buildable by Visual Studio, build it as well and see whether we can use this to allow builds from GIT checkouts for other -mm libraries with MSVC builds. Copy this .lib and its header upon 'install'. 2020-02-07 Chun-wei Fan <fanchunwei@src.gnome.org> MSVC_NMake/config-msvc.mak: Correct libsigc++ libname libsigc++'s Meson build files have been corrected to output 'sigc-2.0.lib', like the autotools builds, so correct the library name here. 2020-01-05 Daniel Boles <dboles.src@gmail.com> Variant: Avoid . to not split an intro doc comment Doxygen interprets the first . to mean the end of the introductory blurb, so that resulted in this sentence suddenly ending after the "i." in "i.e." in the short version and having a line break there in the long 2019-12-27 Chun-wei Fan <fanchunwei@src.gnome.org> NMake: Split outdir by toolset version This reduces the likelihood of accidently mixing binaries linked against different CRTs in a single glibmm build tree. 2019-12-26 Chun-wei Fan <fanchunwei@src.gnome.org> NMake Makefiles: Use /utf-8 where available This avoids miscompilations under certain locales (Chinese, Japanese and Korean in particular) where Unicode sequences are not properly handled by the Visual Studio compiler. 2019-12-26 Chun-wei Fan <fanchunwei@src.gnome.org> NMake Makefiles: Add USE_MESON_LIBS This makes it easier for builds that use C++ dependencies that are built with Meson, where applicable. 2019-12-20 Kjell Ahlstedt <kjellahlstedt@gmail.com> Gio::AsyncResult: Improve the class description Fixes #27 2019-11-22 Kjell Ahlstedt <kjellahlstedt@gmail.com> Glib::Regex doc: Note that Glib::ustring must be used in match methods See issue #66 and MR !25 2019-11-18 Kjell Ahlstedt <kjellahlstedt@gmail.com> Avoid unnecessary conversions between std::string and Glib::ustring A few implicit conversions in tests/ have been kept.

Besides, if the transform function returned false, that says they couldn't calculate a target value, so they shouldn’t assign to `to` I default-construct primitive `T_to`s in case anyone *was* reading those for some daft reason, so they get a zero-initialised value instead of UB 2019-11-09 Daniel Boles <dboles.src@gmail.com> tests/glibmm_binding: Add basic test inc transform A basic test is better than nothing, and I propose to change how the transform function works so want to be fully confident it still does. 2019-11-09 Daniel Boles <dboles.src@gmail.com> Binding: Move SlotTypeTransform up and document it This is more maintainable than all the arguments to all the overloads of bind_property() manually repeating the signature in their documentation, plus more user-friendly as we document it, users can use the typedef, &c 2019-11-09 Daniel Boles <dboles.src@gmail.com> Binding: Better explain purpose of SlotTransform, and use better formatting for it too. 2019-11-03 Kjell Ahlstedt <kjellahlstedt@gmail.com> Glib::ustring_Iterator: Explicitly declare copy assignment This disables a warning from g++ 9.2 (abbreviated here): In member function ‘bool Glib::ustring::validate(Glib::ustring::iterator&)’: error: implicitly-declared ..... is deprecated [-Werror=deprecated-copy] 1206 | first_invalid = iterator(string_.begin() + (valid_end - pdata)); note: because ..... has user-provided ..... 1066 | inline ustring_Iterator<T>::ustring_Iterator( const ustring_Iterator<std::string::iterator>& other) 2019-10-24 Mike Fleetwood <mike.fleetwood@googlemail.com> Correct spelling of spawn_async_with_pipes() in doc comment 2019-10-22 Kjell Ahlstedt <kjellahlstedt@gmail.com> Gio::DBus::Connection: Make the wrap() function thread-safe Add a std::mutex that guarantees that two threads don't create C++ wrappers for the same GDBusConnection instance.
