GLib 2.13.0 is now available for download at: ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk/2.13/ http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/glib/2.13/ glib-2.13.0.tar.bz2 md5sum: 4c0ffd368819f2af0c5fa531714945b1glib-2.13.0.tar.gz md5sum: 2b0894cc6a09a8698119e4889853f001 This is a development release leading up to GLib 2.14. 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 2.12. If you have problems, you'll need to reinstall GLib 2.12. * GLib 2.14 will be source and binary compatible with the GLib 2.12 series; however, the new API additions in GLib 2.13.0 are not yet finalized, so there may be incompatibilities between this release and the final 2.14 release. * Bugs should be reported to http://bugzilla.gnome.org. About GLib========== GLib is the low-level core library that forms the basis for projectssuch as GTK+ and GNOME. It provides data structure handling for C,portability wrappers, and interfaces for such runtime functionality asan 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, canbe found at: http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/gtk/gtk-building.html Overview of Changes from GLib 2.12 to GLib 2.13.0================================================= * Add GSequence, a list that is implemented using a balanced binary tree. * Add GRegex, an implementation of Perl regular expressions, based on PCRE. * Use Posix monotonic clocks instead of gettimeofday() for GTimer when available. * Support static initialization of GQeues with G_QUEUE_INIT, g_queue_init() and g_queue_clear(). * Add g_string_chunk_clear() for clearing a GStringChunk. * Add g_unichar_get_script() to obtain Unicode script information. * Add g_unichar_iszerowidth() to obtain information about zero-width characters. * Add G_GNUC_MAY_ALIAS which wraps the gcc may_alias type attribute. * G_GNUC_INTERNAL has a working definition for the Sun Studio compiler. This requires the macro to be positioned before the function declaration. * The slice allocator can produce detailed debugging information with G_SLICE=debug-blocks. * Modules support G_DEBUG flags resident-modules and bind-now-modules. * Add G_DEFINE_DYNAMIC_TYPE() to make it easier to define types in modules. * Bug fixes: too many to list them in detail here. * New and updated translations (be,bg,bn,ca,cs,de, en_CA,en_GB,et,fa,fr,he,hu,it,ja,ku,lt,mg,mk,ml, nb,ne,nn,pt,pt_BR,ro,sr,sr@Latn,sv,ta,uk,vi,zh_CN, zh_HK,zh_TW) Thanks to all the people who contributed to thisrelease:Tim JanikMatt BarnesChristian PerschRoss BurtonGuillaume DesmottesNickolay V.
