4 User visible incompatible changes
5 ---------------------------------
9 2008-03-06 freadahead The return value's computation has changed. It
10 now increases by 1 after ungetc.
12 2008-01-26 isnan-nolibm The module name is changed from isnan-nolibm to
13 isnand-nolibm. The include file is changed from
14 "isnan.h" to "isnand.h". The function that it
15 defines is changed from isnan() to isnand().
17 2008-01-14 strcasestr This module now replaces worst-case inefficient
18 implementations; clients that use controlled
19 needles and thus do not care about worst-case
20 efficiency should use the new strcasestr-simple
21 module instead for smaller code size.
23 2008-01-09 alloca-opt Now defines HAVE_ALLOCA_H only when the system
24 supplies an <alloca.h>. Gnulib-using code is now
25 expected to include <alloca.h> unconditionally.
26 Non-gnulib-using code can continue to include
27 <alloca.h> only if HAVE_ALLOCA_H is defined.
29 2008-01-08 memmem This module now replaces worst-case inefficient
30 implementations; clients that use controlled
31 needles and thus do not care about worst-case
32 efficiency should use the new memmem-simple
33 module instead for smaller code size.
35 2007-12-24 setenv The include file is changed from "setenv.h" to
36 <stdlib.h>. Also, the unsetenv function is no
37 longer declared in this module; use the 'unsetenv'
38 module if you need it.
40 2007-12-03 getpagesize The include file is changed from "getpagesize.h"
43 2007-12-03 strcase The include file is changed from <string.h> to
46 2007-10-07 most modules The license for most modules has changed from
47 GPLv2+ to GPLv3+, and from LGPLv2+ to LGPLv3+.
48 A few modules are still under LGPLv2+; see the
49 module description for the applicable license.
51 2007-09-01 linebreak "linebreak.h" no longer declares the functions
52 locale_charset, uc_width, u{8,16,32}_width. Use
53 "uniwidth.h" to get these functions declared.
55 2007-08-28 areadlink-with-size
56 Renamed from mreadlink-with-size.
57 Function renamed: mreadlink_with_size ->
60 2007-08-22 getdelim, getline
61 The include file is changed from "getdelim.h"
62 and "getline.h" to the POSIX 200x <stdio.h>.
64 2007-08-18 idcache Now provides prototypes in "idcache.h".
66 2007-08-10 xstrtol The STRTOL_FATAL_ERROR macro is removed.
67 Use the new xstrtol_fatal function instead.
69 2007-08-04 human The function human_options no longer reports an
70 error to standard error; that is now the
71 caller's responsibility. It returns an
72 error code of type enum strtol_error
73 instead of the integer option value, and stores
74 the option value via a new int * argument.
75 xstrtol The first two arguments of STRTOL_FATAL_ERROR
76 are now an option name and option argument
77 instead of an option argument and a type string,
78 STRTOL_FAIL_WARN is removed.
80 2007-07-14 gpl, lgpl New Texinfo versions with no sectioning commands.
82 2007-07-10 version-etc Output now mentions GPLv3+, not GPLv2+. Use
83 gnulib-tool --local-dir to override this.
85 2007-07-07 wcwidth The include file is changed from "wcwidth.h" to
88 2007-07-02 gpl, lgpl Renamed to gpl-2.0 and lgpl-2.1 respectively.
89 (There is also a new module gpl-3.0.)
91 2007-06-16 lchown The include file is changed from "lchown.h" to
94 2007-06-09 xallocsa Renamed to xmalloca. The include file "xallocsa.h"
95 was remamed to "xmalloca.h". The function was
99 2007-06-09 allocsa Renamed to malloca. The include file "allocsa.h"
100 was remamed to "malloca.h". The function-like
105 2007-05-20 utimens Renamed futimens to gl_futimens, to avoid
106 conflict with the glibc-2.6-introduced function
107 that has a different signature.
109 2007-05-01 sigprocmask The module now depends on signal, so replace
110 #include "sigprocmask.h"
114 2007-04-06 gettext The macro HAVE_LONG_DOUBLE is no longer set.
115 You can replace all its uses with 1, i.e. assume
116 'long double' as a type exists.

163 2007-03-19 iconvme The module is removed. Use module striconv instead:
164 iconv_string -> str_iconv
165 iconv_alloc -> str_cd_iconv (with reversed
168 2007-03-15 list The functions gl_list_create_empty and
169 array-list gl_list_create now take an extra fourth argument.
170 carray-list You can pass NULL.

179 array-oset third argument. You can pass NULL.

202 xreadlink-with-size. The function was renamed:
203 xreadlink -> xreadlink_with_size.
