GLib 2.11.1 is now available for download at ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk/v2.11/ http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/sources/glib/2.11/ glib-2.11.0.tar.bz2 md5sum: 3655de1e252f3028fff862347a624808 glib-2.11.0.tar.gz md5sum: d7732bc60653a8cbf4919c2927c94814 This is the second development release leading up to GLib 2.12. Notes: * This is unstable development release. While it has had a bit of testing, there are certainly plenty of bugs remaining to be found. This release should not be used in production. * Installing this version will overwrite your existing copy of GLib 2.10. If you have problems, you'll need to reinstall GLib 2.10.1. * GLib 2.12 will be source and binary compatible with the GLib 2.10 series; however, the new API additions in GLib 2.11.1 are not yet finalized, so there may be incompatibilities between this release and the final 2.12 release. * Remaining issues for GLib 2.12 can be found with the following bugzilla query: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/buglist.cgi?product=glib&bug_status=NEW&bug_status=REOPENED&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=UNCONFIRMED&target_milestone=2.12%20Freeze&target_milestone=2.12%20API%20Freeze * Bugs should be reported to http://bugzilla.gnome.org. About GLib ========== GLib is the low-level core library that forms the basis for projects such as GTK+ and GNOME. It provides data structure handling for C, portability wrappers, and interfaces for such runtime functionality as an event loop, threads, dynamic loading, and an object system. More information about GLib is available at: http://www.gtk.org/ An installation guide for the GTK+ libraries, including GLib, can be found at: http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/gtk/gtk-building.html Overview of Changes from GLib 2.11.0 to GLib 2.11.1 =================================================== * GOption - Support 64-bit integers - Allow optional text before and after the options in help output * Bug fixes: 340538 gbase64-test writes OOB 340816 GKeyFile set_string_list invalid memory reads 339105 g_key_file_parse_value_as_double 340434 convert-test.c fails (function test_one_half) 311043 Memory leaks (and potential infinite loops) when using G_ERRORCHECK_MUTEXES 335198 Error checking mutexes are fubar 341237 Add a G_OPTION_ARG_INT64 341192 g_io_channel_set_flags not implemented on win32 336120 Allow adding description before/after GOption --help output body 341191 misplaced check in g_relation_delete 340530 mismatched calloc / g_free in win32 threads * Updated translation (es) Thanks to all the people who contributed to this release: Kjartan Maraas, Nick Treleaven, Morten Welinder, Alessandro Vesely, Sebastian Wilhelmi, Chris Wilson, Bastian Nocera, Tor Lillqvist, Behdad Esfahbod, Pascal Terjan, Alexander Larsson, Jake Goulding Matthias Clasen May 2, 2006 _______________________________________________ gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
