If for nothing else, it might ease the flood of comments from people who seem to be afraid of the “big” 3.0 not leaving the cosmos in an unstable state with new innovative features…

the tabs joke continues?

seriously though the journal provided by Sugar/OLPC is a great idea and something along those lines could be really great for Gnome. thing is once you have your document based metaphor a journal of the documents you were working on recently works really really well, and I’ve rambled before how interesting it could be to have not just a few recent documents but a much more detailed and involved document history or journal or timeline as others have called it.

great news.

I use glib’s testunit in visual studio 2002.But when compling the code, i find warnings.

The code:
…
g_assert_cmpint(3, ==, 2);
…

The warnings:
warning C4244: conversion from ‘__int64′ to ‘long double’, possible loss of data

In glib’s source code(gtestutils.h):
#define g_assert_cmpint(n1, cmp, n2) \
do { gint64 __n1 = (n1), __n2 = (n2); \
if (__n1 cmp __n2) ; else \
_assertion_message_cmpnum (G_LOG_DOMAIN, __FILE__, __LINE__, G_STRFUNC, \
#n1 ” ” #cmp ” ” #n2, __n1, #cmp, __n2, ‘i’); } while (0)

May be correct:
#define g_assert_cmpint(n1, cmp, n2) \
do { gint64 __n1 = (n1), __n2 = (n2); \
if (__n1 cmp __n2) ; else \
_assertion_message_cmpnum (G_LOG_DOMAIN, __FILE__, __LINE__, G_STRFUNC, \
#n1 ” ” #cmp ” ” #n2, (long double)__n1, #cmp, (long double)__n2, ‘i’); } while (0)

I use glib’s main event loop and iochannel, but why glib’s main event loop and iochannel don’t support epoll/kqueue/(/dev/poll)?

The poll/select func’s efficiency is very poor.

The libevent(http://monkey.org/~provos/libevent/) use epoll/kqueue. Why glib not?

thanks
