4 User visible incompatible changes
5 ---------------------------------
9 2008-01-09 alloca-opt Now defines HAVE_ALLOCA_H only when the system
10 supplies an <alloca.h>. Gnulib-using code is now
11 expected to include <alloca.h> unconditionally.
12 Non-gnulib-using code can continue to include
13 <alloca.h> only if HAVE_ALLOCA_H is defined.
15 2008-01-08 memmem This module now replaces worst-case inefficient
16 implementations; clients that use controlled
17 needles and thus do not care about worst-case
18 efficiency should use the new memmem-simple
19 module instead for smaller code size.
21 2007-12-24 setenv The include file is changed from "setenv.h" to
22 <stdlib.h>. Also, the unsetenv function is no
23 longer declared in this module; use the 'unsetenv'
24 module if you need it.
26 2007-12-03 getpagesize The include file is changed from "getpagesize.h"
29 2007-12-03 strcase The include file is changed from <string.h> to
32 2007-10-07 most modules The license for most modules has changed from
33 GPLv2+ to GPLv3+, and from LGPLv2+ to LGPLv3+.
34 A few modules are still under LGPLv2+; see the
35 module description for the applicable license.
37 2007-09-01 linebreak "linebreak.h" no longer declares the functions
38 locale_charset, uc_width, u{8,16,32}_width. Use
39 "uniwidth.h" to get these functions declared.
41 2007-08-28 areadlink-with-size
42 Renamed from mreadlink-with-size.
43 Function renamed: mreadlink_with_size ->
46 2007-08-22 getdelim, getline
47 The include file is changed from "getdelim.h"
48 and "getline.h" to the POSIX 200x <stdio.h>.
50 2007-08-18 idcache Now provides prototypes in "idcache.h".
52 2007-08-10 xstrtol The STRTOL_FATAL_ERROR macro is removed.
53 Use the new xstrtol_fatal function instead.
55 2007-08-04 human The function human_options no longer reports an
56 error to standard error; that is now the
57 caller's responsibility. It returns an
58 error code of type enum strtol_error
59 instead of the integer option value, and stores
60 the option value via a new int * argument.
61 xstrtol The first two arguments of STRTOL_FATAL_ERROR
62 are now an option name and option argument
63 instead of an option argument and a type string,
64 STRTOL_FAIL_WARN is removed.
66 2007-07-14 gpl, lgpl New Texinfo versions with no sectioning commands.
68 2007-07-10 version-etc Output now mentions GPLv3+, not GPLv2+. Use
69 gnulib-tool --local-dir to override this.
71 2007-07-07 wcwidth The include file is changed from "wcwidth.h" to
74 2007-07-02 gpl, lgpl Renamed to gpl-2.0 and lgpl-2.1 respectively.
75 (There is also a new module gpl-3.0.)
77 2007-06-16 lchown The include file is changed from "lchown.h" to
80 2007-06-09 xallocsa Renamed to xmalloca. The include file "xallocsa.h"
81 was remamed to "xmalloca.h". The function was
85 2007-06-09 allocsa Renamed to malloca. The include file "allocsa.h"
86 was remamed to "malloca.h". The function-like
91 2007-05-20 utimens Renamed futimens to gl_futimens, to avoid
92 conflict with the glibc-2.6-introduced function
93 that has a different signature.
95 2007-05-01 sigprocmask The module now depends on signal, so replace
96 #include "sigprocmask.h"
100 2007-04-06 gettext The macro HAVE_LONG_DOUBLE is no longer set.
101 You can replace all its uses with 1, i.e. assume
102 'long double' as a type exists.

149 2007-03-19 iconvme The module is removed. Use module striconv instead:
150 iconv_string -> str_iconv
151 iconv_alloc -> str_cd_iconv (with reversed
154 2007-03-15 list The functions gl_list_create_empty and
155 array-list gl_list_create now take an extra fourth argument.
156 carray-list You can pass NULL.
164 2007-03-15 oset The function gl_oset_create_empty now takes a
165 array-oset third argument. You can pass NULL.
169 2007-03-12 des The types and functions in lib/des.h have been
172 des_ctx -> gl_des_ctx, tripledes_ctx -> gl_3des_ctx,

188 xreadlink-with-size. The function was renamed:
189 xreadlink -> xreadlink_with_size.
