2.4.2:

2004-06-03  Daniel Elstner  <daniel.elstner@gmx.net>

	* scripts/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove mkinstalldirs, because
	automake-1.8 doesn't use it anymore and prior versions should pick
	it up automatically anyway.

2004-06-03  Daniel Elstner  <daniel.elstner@gmx.net>

	* glib/glibmm/dispatcher.cc: Complete overhaul of the Win32
	implementation of Glib::Dispatcher.  That is, mutex locking is
	done correctly now and dynamic memory allocation is no longer
	used, plus a few other cleanups.  See reopened bug #109966.

2004-06-03  Daniel Elstner  <daniel.elstner@gmx.net>

	* glib/glibmm/signalproxy_connectionnode.cc
	(SignalProxyConnectionNode::SignalProxyConnectionNode):
	Reorder the initializer list to match the declaration order.

	(SignalProxyConnectionNode::notify): Add missing return 0.

2004-05-26  Daniel Elstner  <daniel.elstner@gmx.net>

	* glib/glibmm/ustring.{cc,h}: Globally apply some minor code
	cleanup and optimization tweaks.

	(get_unichar_from_std_iterator): Replace implementation with a
	hand-optimized and profiled variant that has been lurking in my
	local tree for quite some time, thus should be well tested.
	Also add the G_GNUC_PURE() attribute.

	(operator+): Explicitely instantiate and return a temporary string,
	instead of accessing the reference ustring::operator+=() returns.
	This quite often allows the compiler to eliminate the additional
	copy constructor invocation.

2004-05-25  Murray Cumming  <murrayc@murrayc.com>

	* configure.in, Makefile.am: Removed the glibmm.spec files, because
	it is broken and nobody has volunteered to fix it.

2004-05-20  Daniel Elstner  <daniel.elstner@gmx.net>

	* examples/thread/dispatcher.cc: Revert last commit because it's
	silly.  To make the code truly exception-safe it would be necessary
	to either join all threads or to notify them, which is way beyond
	the scope of this example.

2004-05-20  Daniel Elstner  <daniel.elstner@gmx.net>

	* examples/thread/dispatcher.cc: Set a good example and
	be paranoid about possible memory leaks due to exeptions.

2004-05-20  Daniel Elstner  <daniel.elstner@gmx.net>

	* examples/thread/dispatcher.cc: Code cleanup.  Most importantly,
	get rid of the locking around std::cout since it obfuscates the
	purpose of using Glib::Dispatcher.

2004-05-13  Daniel Elstner  <daniel.elstner@gmx.net>

	* glib/glibmm/object.{cc,h} (ConstructParams::ConstructParams):
	Implement the copy constructor in a way that actually works if used.
	Relying on the compiler to optimize it away is a bad idea. (#132300)

2004-05-04  Murray Cumming  <murrayc@murrayc.com>

	* glib/glibmm/ustring.h: Documented the constructors, based on
	the libstdc++ documentation, to make it clear that sizes are in 
	characters rather than bytes.

2004-05-01  Murray Cumming  <murrayc@murrayc.com>

	* configure.in: Increase glib dependency to 2.4.0.

2004-04-30  Murray Cumming  <murrayc@murrayc.com>

	* tools/m4/gobject.m4: Allow use of _CUSTOM_DTOR(), needed by
	Gnome::Gda::Connection.
