2 * accept an identifier such as a constant in array dimensions
3 * updated manpage with build instructions
6 * destructors run after destroy, not before finalize,
7 * zero out data after destruction
8 * added Self typedef to complement the SELF macros
9 * initial underscore removal from full names, to help to avoid
13 * classwide (global) datamembers
14 * private header file always generated by default
17 * fix signals with return values but no arguments
18 * more input file checking
21 * defreturn for default return values on signals/virtuals
26 * gob.m4 improvements (Eskil)
27 * minor fixes, and improvements
30 * data member initialization
31 * pointer data member destruction
32 * automatic argument to data member linking for simple cases
33 * other minor fixes/improvements
36 * -n flag (Dave Dunkin)
37 * all and alltop code sections (Dave Dunkin)
38 * GTK_RUN_ flags for signals
43 * inline documentation support
44 * standard m4 autoconf macro (thanks to Eskil Heyn Olsen)
48 * more header code sections
49 * some code restructuring
50 * always extern "C" the header (unless --no-extern-c is used)
51 * object typedef protecting define for avoiding circular includes
54 * typesafe macros for argument setting/getting
55 * generated code will take advantage of GNU C extentions if compiled
57 * move _priv structure freeing into finalize
58 * more gob file compilation checks
59 * other improvements and fixes
61 NOTE: The generated files with this version will be larger because
62 of some more preprocessor magic that is done to make the thing saner,
63 and faster. Don't worry about it as the resulting object file should
67 * added protected methods and datamembers.
68 * better handeling of empty methods
69 * allow scope keywords before the virutal or signal keyword
70 * merge signal marshallers that are the same to reduce code size
71 * various small fixes and improvements
74 * PARENT_HANDLER can now return a value for non-void overrides
75 * allow empty classes and empty function bodies
76 * allow public keyword around signals and virtuals for consistency
80 * WARNING! slight change in the private stuff again, private
81 structure definition (_priv) is now in a private header file,
82 which you must include explicitly if you include the public
83 header file explicitly in your .gob file. 0.91.0 behaviour
84 is obtainable with the --no-private-header option
85 * added support for array data members and function arguments
88 * WARNING! change the way private data members are done, now you need
89 to access them through a private structure only available in the
90 C file, object->member becomes object->_priv->member
91 * add support for placing the object header anywhere in the C file
92 * bunch of further sanity checks added
93 * add some simple examples
96 * added PARENT_HANDLER macro for overrides
97 * added _TYPE_ macro for _get_type method
98 * warn if signal parameter lists seem mismatched
101 * fix buggy class structure generation
102 * can generate C++ friendly code
103 * function aliases are now done by static pointers rather then defines
107 * does not require popt
108 * don't kill comments from C code blocks
109 * support for being "embedded" inside other projects to avoid
110 dependencies (look at README)
114 * add support for private signals and virtuals
115 * fix bug with varargs
118 * accept 'const' in argument lists
119 * accept '...' in public and private method argument lists
122 * changed "this" to "self" but recognize "this" as well
123 * warn if "new" is not public
124 * check symbols/arguments/signals for duplicates
127 * you can have tokens inside check statements
128 * avoid warnings when no overrides, signals and arguments
131 * "type", "check", "first", "last" and "null" no longer reserved
132 words in method prototypes
133 * GET_NEW defined for the entire file
134 * added #line's to the .c files so that errors get reported on the
135 .gob file, there are no #line's in .h file however!
140 * autoconf/automake setup
