[ANNOUNCE] libvirt-glib 0.1.6 release

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I am pleased to announce that a new release of the libvirt-glib package,
version 0.1.6, is now available from

  ftp://libvirt.org/libvirt/glib/

The packages are GPG signed with

    Key fingerprint: DAF3 A6FD B26B 6291 2D0E  8E3F BE86 EBB4 1510 4FDF (4096R)

New in this release:

- Prefer g_strlcpy over strncpy
- Fix potential crashes in some error handling cases
- Fix typo in gvir_config_init docs which broke vala binding
- Use 'transfer none' for argv parameter in all init functions
- Ensure stream data parameters are annotated to be guint8
  arrays, not gchar, since they're not NULL terminated
  strings.
- Replace FSF address with URL in copyright headers
- Add API for changing Spice compression parameters.

libvirt-glib comprises three distinct libraries:

   - libvirt-glib    - Integrate with the GLib event loop and error handling
   - libvirt-gconfig - Representation of libvirt XML documents as GObjects
   - libvirt-gobject - Mapping of libvirt APIs into the GObject type system

NB: While libvirt aims to be API/ABI stable forever, with libvirt-glib
we are not yet guaranteeing that libvirt-glib libraries are API/ABI
permanently stable. As of the 0.0.8 release, we have tentatively frozen
the API/ABI with the intent of being longterm stable hereafter, but
there is still a small chance we might find flaws requiring an API/ABI
change. The likelihood of this is low, however, and we will strive to
avoid it.

Follow up comments about libvirt-glib should be directed to the regular
libvir-list@xxxxxxxxxx development list.

Thanks to all the people involved in contributing to this release.

Regards,
Daniel
