Post release updates.

2014-04-15T12:32:35Z

Release 1.13.

2014-04-15T12:19:05Z

* configure.ac: Set LT version to C11/A11/R0.

Make multi-threading flags available via gpg-error-config.

2014-01-24T16:41:20Z

* m4/threadlib.m4: Set THREADLIB_CPPFLAGS. * src/gpg-error-config.in: Add option --mt. * configure.ac: Add support for the --mt option. * src/gpg-error.m4: Add ac_subst GPG_ERROR_MT_CFLAGS and GPG_ERROR_MT_LIBS. -- Although, libgpg-error does not yet provide an API for multi-thread support, it is useful to add the already available detection to the config script. This allows the latest Libgcrypt to take advantage of this in its regression tests. In particular for the regression tests a gpgrt_thread functions would be useful and eventually added to libgpg-error. The new gpg-error.m4 script should already be used by other packages to be prepared for future updates.

Add gpgrt_lock_ functions.

2014-01-16T08:58:22Z

* src/gpg-error.h.in (GPGRT_LOCK_DEFINE): New. (gpgrt_lock_init): New. (gpgrt_lock_lock): New. (gpgrt_lock_unlock): New. (gpgrt_lock_destroy): New. (gpgrt_yield): New. * src/gpg-error.def.in: Add new functions. * m4/lock.m4, m4/threadlib.m4: New. Taken from current gnulib. * configure.ac: Call gl_LOCK. Check size of pthread_mutex_t. Add LIBTHREAD to GPG_ERROR_CONFIG_LIBS. * src/err-codes.h.in (GPG_ERR_INV_LOCK_OBJ): New. * src/gen-posix-lock-obj.c: New. * src/gen-w32-lock-obj.c: New. * src/lock.h, src/thread.h: New. * src/posix-lock-obj.h, src/w32-lock-obj.h: New. * src/posix-lock.c, src/w32-lock.c: New. * src/posix-thread.c, src/w32-thread.c: * src/w32-lock-obj-pub.in: New. * src/mkheader.c (include_file): Support build time include files. (write_special): Add keyword "include:lock-obj". * src/Makefile.am: (posix-lock-obj-pub.in): New rule. (noinst_PROGRAMS): Add gen-*-lock-obj helpers. * tests/t-common.h: New. * tests/t-lock.c: New. * tests/Makefile.am (t_lock_LDADD): Add new test. -- This patch introduces the gpgrt_ functions which will be extended over time to provide a library of commonly used code in GnuPG and Libgcrypt. Having them in a library named libgpg-error is a misnomer but this way we can achieve a smooth upgrade path. In contrasts to other GnuPG libraries, the gpgrt_ functions return a simple gpg_err_code_t and not gpg_error_t. The rationale for this is that a source of error identifier does not make sense here; it is better to use the source of error identifier of the caller. This can easily be achieved in a component by wrapping these function in a gpg_error macro/inline. There is no cross-compiling support for Posix platforms; the gen-posix-lock-obj tool must be run on the target system. Note that the gen-w32-lock-obj tool is not needed at build time but was used to figure out ABI definitions for Windows. Signed-off-by: Werner Koch

Add GPG_ERR_MAC_ALGO.
