1 Important general notes
2 -----------------------
6 2016-09-05 progname There is now an alternate module 'getprogname'. It
7 defines a getprogname() function; use it to obtain
8 the name of the current program.
10 - In a program's main() function, and associated
11 usage() and help() functions, use 'progname'.
12 - In library code, or more generally any code that
13 is not near the main() function, use
16 2013-04-24 gettext If your project uses 'gettextize --intl' it is now
17 your responsibility to put -I$(top_builddir)/intl
18 into the Makefile.am for gnulib.
20 2012-06-27 elisp-comp The module 'elisp-comp' is removed; the script is
21 not independently useful outside of automake.
23 2012-06-21 gnulib-tool The option --with-tests is now implied by the
24 options --create-testdir, --test,
25 --create-megatestdir, --megatest.
27 2012-01-07 quotearg In the C locale, the function will no longer use
28 the grave accent character to begin a quoted
29 string (`like this'). It will use apostrophes
30 'like these' or, in Unicode locales, single quotes
31 ‘like these’. You may want to adjust any error
32 messages that hard code the quoting characters.
34 2010-09-04 gnulib-tool The option '--import' is no longer cumulative; it
35 now expects the complete list of modules and other
36 options on the command line. If you want to
37 augment (not set) the list of modules, use the
38 new option '--add-import' instead of '--import'.
40 User visible incompatible changes
41 ---------------------------------
45 2017-05-19 closeout close_stdout longer closes stderr when addresses
46 are being sanitized, as the sanitizer outputs to
49 2017-02-16 binary-io On MS-DOS and OS/2, set_binary_mode now fails
50 on ttys, and sets errno == EINVAL.
52 2017-01-20 parse-datetime The parse_datetime2 function now takes two
53 more arguments TZ and TZSTRING, for the
54 time zone and its name.
56 2017-01-16 host-cpu-c-abi On ARM platforms, HOST_CPU_C_ABI is now set to
57 'arm' or 'armhf' instead of 'armel'.
59 2017-01-15 localeinfo Change case_folded_counterparts's first arg's type
60 from wchar_t to wint_t, so it now accepts WEOF.
62 2016-12-17 getlogin The link requirements of these modules are changed
63 getlogin_r from empty to $(LIB_GETLOGIN).
65 2016-12-13 dfa Remove DFA_CASE_FOLD flag. Now based on RE_ICASE.
67 2016-11-17 unistr/u32-strmblen The function u32_strmblen can now return -1.
68 2016-11-17 unistr/u32-strmbtouc The function u32_strmbtouc can now return -1.
70 2016-08-17 stdbool This no longer supports _Bool for C++.
71 Programs intended to be portable to C++
72 compilers should use plain 'bool' instead.
74 2016-04-12 intprops The following macros were removed:
75 TYPE_TWOS_COMPLEMENT TYPE_ONES_COMPLEMENT
78 2015-09-25 c-ctype The following macros were removed:
79 C_CTYPE_CONSECUTIVE_DIGITS
80 C_CTYPE_CONSECUTIVE_LOWERCASE
81 C_CTYPE_CONSECUTIVE_UPPERCASE
83 2015-09-22 savewd SAVEWD_CHDIR_READABLE constant removed.
85 2015-07-24 fprintftime Exported functions' time zone arguments are now of
86 strftime type timezone_t (with NULL denoting UTC) instead of
87 type int (with nonzero denoting UTC). These
88 modules now depend on time_rz.
90 2015-04-24 acl This module no longer defines file_has_acl.
91 Use the new file-has-acl module for that.
92 Using only the latter module makes for fewer
93 link-time dependencies on GNU/Linux.
95 2015-04-15 acl If your project only uses the file_has_acl()
96 detection routine, then the requirements are
97 potentially reduced by using $LIB_HAS_ACL rather
100 2015-04-03 hash hash_insert0 function removed (deprecated in 2011).
102 2014-10-29 obstack The obstack functions are no longer limited to
103 int sizes; size values are now of type size_t.
104 This changes both the ABI and the API.
105 obstack_blank no longer accepts a negative size to
106 shrink the current object; callers must now use
107 obstack_blank_fast with a "negative" (actually,
108 large positive) size for that.
110 2014-02-23 diffseq The members too_expensive, lo_minimal and hi_minimal
111 were removed from public structures, and the
112 find_minimal argument was removed from diag
115 2014-02-11 savedir The savedir and streamsavedir functions have a
116 new argument specifying how to sort the result.
117 The fdsavedir function is removed.
119 2013-05-04 gnulib-tool CVS checkout of gnulib are no longer supported.
121 2013-02-08 careadlinkat This module no longer provides the careadlinkatcwd
124 2012-06-26 getopt-posix This module no longer guarantees that option
125 processing is resettable. If your code uses
126 'optreset' or 'optind = 0;', rewrite it to make
127 only one pass over the argument array.
129 2012-02-24 streq This module no longer provides the STREQ macro.
130 Use STREQ_OPT instead.
132 2012-01-10 ignore-value This module no longer provides the ignore_ptr
133 function. It was deprecated a year ago, but existed
134 so briefly before then that it never came into use.
135 Now, the ignore_value function does its job.
137 2011-11-18 hash This module deprecates the hash_insert0 function
138 using gcc's "deprecated" attribute. Use the better-
139 named hash_insert_if_absent equivalent.
141 2011-11-04 openat This module no longer provides the mkdirat()
142 function. If you need this function, you now need
143 to request the 'mkdirat' module.
145 2011-11-04 openat This module no longer provides the fstatat()
146 function. If you need this function, you now need
147 to request the 'fstatat' module.
149 2011-11-03 openat This module no longer provides the unlinkat()
150 function. If you need this function, you now need
151 to request the 'unlinkat' module.
153 2011-11-02 openat This module no longer provides the fchmodat()
154 function. If you need this function, you now need
155 to request the 'fchmodat' module.
157 2011-11-01 alignof This module no longer provides the alignof() macro.
158 Use either alignof_slot() or alignof_type() instead.
160 2011-11-01 openat This module no longer provides the fchownat()
161 function. If you need this function, you now need
162 to request the 'fchownat' module.
164 2011-10-03 poll The link requirements of this module are changed
165 from empty to $(LIB_POLL).
167 2011-09-25 sys_stat This module no longer provides the fstat()
168 function. If you need this function, you now need
169 to request the 'fstat' module.
171 2011-09-23 signal This module is renamed to 'signal-h'.
173 2011-09-22 select The link requirements of this module are changed
174 from $(LIBSOCKET) to $(LIB_SELECT).
176 2011-09-12 fchdir This module no longer overrides the functions
177 opendir() and closedir(), unless the modules
178 'opendir' and 'closedir' are in use, respectively.
179 If you use opendir(), please use module 'opendir'.
180 If you use closedir(), please use module 'closedir'.
182 2011-08-04 pathmax The header file "pathmax.h" no longer defines
183 PATH_MAX on GNU/Hurd. Please use one of the methods
184 listed in pathmax.h to ensure your package is
185 portable to GNU/Hurd.
187 2011-07-24 close This module no longer pulls in the 'fclose' module.
188 If your code creates a socket descriptor using
189 socket() or accept(), then a FILE stream referring
190 to it using fdopen(), then in order to close this
191 stream, you need the 'fclose' module.
193 2011-07-12 arg-nonnull Renamed to snippet/arg-nonnull.
194 c++defs Renamed to snippet/c++defs.
195 link-warning Renamed to snippet/link-warning.
196 unused-parameter Renamed to snippet/unused-parameter.
197 warn-on-use Renamed to snippet/warn-on-use.
199 2011-06-15 verify verify_true (V) is deprecated; please use
200 verify_expr (V, 1) instead.
202 2011-06-05 ansi-c++-opt When a C++ compiler is not found, the variable CXX
203 is now set to "no", not to ":".
205 2011-05-11 group-member The include file is changed from "group-member.h"
208 2011-05-02 exit The module is removed. It was deprecated
209 on 2010-03-05. Use 'stdlib' directly instead.
211 2011-04-27 mgetgroups The 'xgetgroups' function has been split into
212 a new 'xgetgroups' module.
214 2011-04-27 save-cwd This module pulls in fewer dependencies by
215 default; to retain robust handling of directories
216 with an absolute name longer than PATH_MAX, you
217 must now explicitly include the 'getcwd' module.
219 2011-04-19 close-hook This module has been renamed to 'fd-hook' and
222 2011-03-08 regex-quote The last argument is no longer an 'int cflags'
223 but instead a pointer to a previously constructed
224 'struct regex_quote_spec'.
226 2011-02-25 dirname These modules no longer put #defines for the
227 dirname-lgpl following symbols into <config.h>: ISSLASH,
228 backupfile FILE_SYSTEM_ACCEPTS_DRIVE_LETTER_PREFIX,
229 lstat FILE_SYSTEM_BACKSLASH_IS_FILE_NAME_SEPARATOR,
230 openat FILE_SYSTEM_DRIVE_PREFIX_CAN_BE_RELATIVE.
231 remove Applications that need ISSLASH can include the new
232 rmdir header dosname.h.
237 2011-02-14 getloadavg This module no longer #defines C_GETLOADAVG or
238 HAVE_GETLOADAVG, as the application no longer needs
239 to worry about how getloadavg is defined. It no
240 longer defines the obsolete symbol NLIST_NAME_UNION
241 (which should have been internal to the module
242 anyway). Also, support for setgid use has been
243 removed, as nobody seems to be using it; thus
244 GETLOADAVG_PRIVILEGED is no longer #defined and
245 KMEM_GROUP and NEED_SETGID are no longer
248 2011-02-08 stdlib Unless the random_r module is also used, this
249 module no longer guarantees that the following are
250 defined: struct random_data, RAND_MAX, random_r,
251 srandom_r, initstate_r, setstate_r.
253 2011-02-08 wctype-h This module no longer provides the iswblank()
254 function. If you need this function, you now need
255 to request the 'iswblank' module.
257 2011-02-07 wctype This module is renamed to wctype-h.
259 2011-01-18 multiarch This no longer #defines AA_APPLE_UNIVERSAL_BUILD;
260 instead, use the shell var APPLE_UNIVERSAL_BUILD.
262 2010-12-10 pipe This module is renamed to spawn-pipe. The include
263 file is renamed to "spawn-pipe.h".
265 2010-10-05 getdate This module is deprecated. Please use the new
266 parse-datetime module for the replacement
267 function parse_datetime(), or help us write
268 getdate-posix for getdate(). Also, the header
269 "getdate.h" has been renamed "parse-datetime.h",
270 and doc/getdate.texi to doc/parse-datetime.texi.
272 2010-09-29 sys_wait This module no longer provides the waitpid()
273 function. If you need this function, you now need
274 to request the 'waitpid' module.
276 2010-09-17 utimens The function gl_futimens is removed, and its
277 signature has been migrated to fdutimens. Callers
278 of gl_futimens should change function name, and
279 callers of fdutimens should swap parameter order.
281 2010-09-17 fdutimensat This function has a new signature: the fd now comes
282 first instead of the dir/name pair, and a new
283 atflag parameter is added at the end. Old code
284 should rearrange parameters, and pass 0 for atflag.
286 2010-09-13 regex The module is not guaranteeing anymore support for
287 64-bit regoff_t on 64-bit systems. The size of
288 regoff_t will always be 32-bit unless the program
289 is being configured --with-included-regex. This
290 may change again in the future once glibc provides
291 this feature as well.
293 2010-09-12 savedir The fdsavedir function is now deprecated.
295 2010-09-10 fcntl-h This module now defaults O_CLOEXEC to 0, and
296 it defaults O_EXEC and O_SEARCH to O_RDONLY.
297 Use "#if O_CLOEXEC" instead of "#ifdef O_CLOEXEC".
299 2010-08-28 realloc This module is deprecated. Use 'realloc-gnu'
300 instead. It will be removed 2012-01-01.
302 2010-08-28 calloc This module is deprecated. Use 'calloc-gnu'
303 instead. It will be removed 2012-01-01.
305 2010-08-28 malloc This module is deprecated. Use 'malloc-gnu'
306 instead. It will be removed 2012-01-01.
308 2010-08-14 memxfrm This module is renamed to amemxfrm. The include
309 file is renamed to "amemxfrm.h". The function is
312 2010-08-09 symlinkat This module now only provides symlinkat; use the
313 new module 'readlinkat' if needed.
315 2010-07-31 ansi-c++-opt If Autoconf >= 2.66 is used, the 'configure'
316 option is now called --disable-c++ rather than
319 2010-04-02 maintainer-makefile
320 The macro _prohibit_regexp has been revamped into
321 a new macro _sc_search_regexp; custom syntax
322 checks in your cfg.mk will need to be rewritten.
324 2010-03-28 lib-ignore This module now provides a variable
325 IGNORE_UNUSED_LIBRARIES_CFLAGS that you should
326 add to LDFLAGS (when linking C programs only) or
327 CFLAGS yourself. It is no longer added to LDFLAGS
330 2010-03-18 pty This module now only declares the pty.h header.
331 Use the new modules 'forkpty' or 'openpty' to
332 get the functions that were previously provided.
334 2010-03-05 exit This module is deprecated, use 'stdlib' directly
335 instead. It will be removed 2011-01-01.
337 2009-12-13 sublist The module does not define functions any more that
338 call xalloc_die() in out-of-memory situations. Use
339 module 'xsublist' and include file "gl_xsublist.h"
342 2009-12-13 list The module does not define functions any more that
343 call xalloc_die() in out-of-memory situations.
344 Use module 'xlist' and include file "gl_xlist.h"
347 2009-12-13 oset The module does not define functions any more that
348 call xalloc_die() in out-of-memory situations.
349 Use module 'xoset' and include file "gl_xoset.h"
352 2009-12-10 * Most source code files have been converted to
353 indentation by spaces (rather than tabs). Patches
354 of gnulib source code needs to be updated.
356 2009-12-09 link-warning The Makefile rules that use $(LINK_WARNING_H) now
357 must contain an explicit dependency on
360 2009-11-12 getgroups These functions now use a signature of gid_t,
361 getugroups rather than GETGROUPS_T. This probably has no
362 effect except on very old platforms.
364 2009-11-04 tempname The gen_tempname function takes an additional
365 'suffixlen' argument. You can safely pass 0.
367 2009-11-04 nproc The num_processors function now takes an argument.
369 2009-11-02 inet_pton The use of this module now requires linking with
372 2009-11-02 inet_ntop The use of this module now requires linking with
375 2009-10-10 utimens The use of this module now requires linking with
376 $(LIB_CLOCK_GETTIME).
378 2009-09-16 canonicalize-lgpl
379 The include file is changed from "canonicalize.h"
382 2009-09-04 link-follow The macro LINK_FOLLOWS_SYMLINK is now tri-state,
383 rather than only defined to 1.
385 2009-09-03 openat The include files are standardized to POSIX 2008.
386 For openat, include <fcntl.h>; for
387 fchmodat, fstatat, and mkdirat, include
388 <sys/stat.h>; for fchownat and unlinkat,
389 include <unistd.h>. For all other
390 functions provided by this module,
391 continue to include "openat.h".
393 2009-08-30 striconveh The functions mem_cd_iconveh and str_cd_iconveh
394 now take an 'iconveh_t *' argument instead of three
397 2009-08-23 tempname The gen_tempname function takes an additional
398 'flags' argument. You can safely pass 0.
400 2009-08-12 getopt This module is deprecated. Please choose among
401 getopt-posix and getopt-gnu. getopt-gnu provides
402 "long options" and "options with optional
403 arguments", getopt-posix doesn't.
405 2009-06-25 fpurge The include file is changed from "fpurge.h" to
408 2009-04-26 modules/uniconv/u8-conv-from-enc
409 modules/uniconv/u16-conv-from-enc
410 modules/uniconv/u32-conv-from-enc
411 The calling convention of the functions
412 u*_conv_from_encoding is changed.
414 2009-04-26 modules/uniconv/u8-conv-to-enc
415 modules/uniconv/u16-conv-to-enc
416 modules/uniconv/u32-conv-to-enc
417 The calling convention of the functions
418 u*_conv_to_encoding is changed.
420 2009-04-24 maintainer-makefile
421 The maint.mk file was copied from
422 coreutils, and the old
423 coverage/gettext/indent rules were
424 re-added. If you used 'make syntax-check'
425 this will add several new checks. If some
426 new check is annoying, add the name of the
427 checks to 'local-checks-to-skip' in your
430 2009-04-01 visibility Renamed to lib-symbol-visibility.
432 2009-04-01 ld-version-script Renamed to lib-symbol-versions.
434 2009-03-20 close The substituted variable LIB_CLOSE is removed.
436 2009-03-05 filevercmp Move hidden files up in ordering.
438 2009-01-22 c-strtod This function no longer calls xalloc_die(). If
439 c-strtold you want to exit the program in case of out-of-
440 memory, the calling function needs to arrange
443 val = c_strtod (...);
444 if (val == 0 && errno == ENOMEM)
447 2009-01-17 relocatable-prog In the Makefile.am or Makefile.in, you now also
448 need to set RELOCATABLE_STRIP = :.
450 2008-12-22 getaddrinfo When using this module, you now need to link with
451 canon-host $(GETADDRINFO_LIB).
453 2008-12-21 mbiter The header files "mbiter.h", "mbuiter.h",
454 mbuiter "mbfile.h" can now be included without checking
455 mbfile HAVE_MBRTOWC. The macro HAVE_MBRTOWC will no
456 longer be defined by these modules in a year. If
457 you want to continue to use it, you need to invoke
458 AC_FUNC_MBRTOWC yourself.
460 2008-11-11 warnings This module subsumes the file m4/warning.m4 which
463 2008-10-20 lstat The include file is changed from "lstat.h" to
466 2008-10-20 getaddrinfo The include file is changed from "getaddrinfo.h"
469 2008-10-19 isnanf The include file is changed from "isnanf.h" to
471 isnand The include file is changed from "isnand.h" to
473 isnanl The include file is changed from "isnanl.h" to
476 2008-10-18 lchmod The include file is changed from "lchmod.h" to
479 2008-10-18 dirfd The include file is changed from "dirfd.h" to
482 2008-10-18 euidaccess The include file is changed from "euidaccess.h"
485 2008-10-18 getdomainname The include file is changed from "getdomainname.h"
488 2008-09-28 sockets When using this module, you now need to link with
491 2008-09-24 sys_select The limitation on 'select', introduced 2008-09-23,
492 was removed. sys_select now includes a select
493 wrapper for Winsock. The wrapper expects socket
494 and file descriptors to be compatible as arranged
495 by the sys_socket on MinGW.
497 2008-09-23 sys_socket Under Windows (MinGW), the module now adds
498 wrappers around Winsock functions, so that
499 socket descriptors are now compatible with
500 file descriptors. In general, this change
501 will simply improve your code's portability
502 between POSIX platforms and Windows. In
503 particular, you will be able to use ioctl and
504 close instead of ioctlsocket and closesocket,
505 and test errno instead of WSAGetLastError ().
506 On the other hand, you have to audit your code to
507 remove usage of these Winsock-specific functions.
509 This change does not remove the need to call
510 the gl_sockets_startup function from the sockets
511 gnulib module. Also, for now select is disabled
512 when you include the sys_socket module; while
513 the functionality will be restored soon, for
514 efficiency it is suggested to use the poll system
515 poll system call and gnulib module instead.
517 2008-09-13 EOVERFLOW The module is removed. Use module errno instead.
519 2008-09-01 filename The module does not define the function
520 concatenated_filename any more. To get an
521 equivalent function, use function
522 xconcatenated_filename from module
525 2008-08-31 havelib On Solaris, when searching for 64-bit mode
526 libraries the directory $prefix/lib is now ignored.
527 Instead the directory $prefix/lib/64 is searched.
528 You may need to create a symbolic link for
529 $prefix/lib/64 if you have 64-bit libraries
530 installed in $prefix/lib.
532 2008-08-19 strverscmp The include file is changed from "strverscmp.h"
535 2008-08-14 lock The include file is changed from "lock.h"
536 to "glthread/lock.h".
537 tls The include file is changed from "tls.h"
540 2008-07-17 c-stack The module now requires the addition of
541 $(LIBCSTACK) or $(LTLIBCSTACK) in Makefile.am,
542 since it may depend on linking with libsigsegv.
544 2008-07-07 isnanf-nolibm The include file is changed from "isnanf.h"
545 to "isnanf-nolibm.h".
546 isnand-nolibm The include file is changed from "isnand.h"
547 to "isnand-nolibm.h".
549 2008-06-10 execute The execute function takes an additional termsigp
550 argument. Passing termsigp = NULL is ok.
551 wait-process The wait_subprocess function takes an additional
552 termsigp argument. Passing termsigp = NULL is ok.
554 2008-05-10 linebreak The module is split into several modules unilbrk/*.
555 The include file is changed from "linebreak.h" to
556 "unilbrk.h". Two functions are renamed:
557 mbs_possible_linebreaks -> ulc_possible_linebreaks
558 mbs_width_linebreaks -> ulc_width_linebreaks

572 isnand-nolibm. The include file is changed from
573 "isnan.h" to "isnand.h". The function that it
574 defines is changed from isnan() to isnand().
576 2008-01-14 strcasestr This module now replaces worst-case inefficient
577 implementations; clients that use controlled
578 needles and thus do not care about worst-case
579 efficiency should use the new strcasestr-simple
580 module instead for smaller code size.
582 2008-01-09 alloca-opt Now defines HAVE_ALLOCA_H only when the system
583 supplies an <alloca.h>. Gnulib-using code is now
584 expected to include <alloca.h> unconditionally.
585 Non-gnulib-using code can continue to include
586 <alloca.h> only if HAVE_ALLOCA_H is defined.
588 2008-01-08 memmem This module now replaces worst-case inefficient
589 implementations; clients that use controlled
590 needles and thus do not care about worst-case
591 efficiency should use the new memmem-simple
592 module instead for smaller code size.
594 2007-12-24 setenv The include file is changed from "setenv.h" to
595 <stdlib.h>. Also, the unsetenv function is no

608 module description for the applicable license.
610 2007-09-01 linebreak "linebreak.h" no longer declares the functions
611 locale_charset, uc_width, u{8,16,32}_width. Use
612 "uniwidth.h" to get these functions declared.

616 Function renamed: mreadlink_with_size ->
619 2007-08-22 getdelim, getline
620 The include file is changed from "getdelim.h"
621 and "getline.h" to the POSIX 200x <stdio.h>.

626 Use the new xstrtol_fatal function instead.
628 2007-08-04 human The function human_options no longer reports an
629 error to standard error; that is now the
630 caller's responsibility. It returns an
631 error code of type enum strtol_error
632 instead of the integer option value, and stores
633 the option value via a new int * argument.
634 xstrtol The first two arguments of STRTOL_FATAL_ERROR
635 are now an option name and option argument
636 instead of an option argument and a type string,
637 STRTOL_FAIL_WARN is removed.
639 2007-07-14 gpl, lgpl New Texinfo versions with no sectioning commands.
641 2007-07-10 version-etc Output now mentions GPLv3+, not GPLv2+. Use
642 gnulib-tool --local-dir to override this.
644 2007-07-07 wcwidth The include file is changed from "wcwidth.h" to
647 2007-07-02 gpl, lgpl Renamed to gpl-2.0 and lgpl-2.1 respectively.

658 2007-06-09 allocsa Renamed to malloca. The include file "allocsa.h"
659 was renamed to "malloca.h". The function-like
664 2007-05-20 utimens Renamed futimens to gl_futimens, to avoid
665 conflict with the glibc-2.6-introduced function
666 that has a different signature.
668 2007-05-01 sigprocmask The module now depends on signal, so replace
669 #include "sigprocmask.h"
673 2007-04-06 gettext The macro HAVE_LONG_DOUBLE is no longer set.
674 You can replace all its uses with 1, i.e. assume
675 'long double' as a type exists.
