This is the last beta release of what will become GTK+ 3.0.
The amount of changes that went into this release was larger
than anticipated, and we will therefore give it at least a
week of little to no changes before declaring 3.0 done.
Notes:
* GTK+ 3 will be parallel installable with GTK+ 2.x, and
this release has been prepared to test this by renaming
all .pc files, libraries, include paths, and so forth,
to include a '3.0' component.
An exception to this is the gtk-update-icon-cache utility,
for which parallel installation would make little sense.
Distributors can choose to build GTK+ 3 with the
--enable-gtk2-dependency configure option to avoid building
gtk-update-icon-cache, and rely on the GTK+ 2.x version of
the utility instead.
* GTK+ 3 removes deprecated API from the GTK+ 2.x series and makes
struct members unavailable that have been GSEALed in 2.x. Therefore,
applications can be prepared for porting to GTK+ 3 by making sure
that they build with -DGTK_DISABLE_DEPRECATED and -DGSEAL_ENABLE.
For more information about porting concerns, see the porting guide
that is included in the API doc:
http://library.gnome.org/devel/gtk/2.99/gtk-migrating-2-to-3.html
The removal of GSEALed struct members and deprecated APIs has been
completed. Any deprecated APIs in this release will not be removed
before GTK+ 4.0.
* Bugs should be reported to http://bugzilla.gnome.org.
What is GTK+
============
GTK+ is a multi-platform toolkit for creating graphical user
interfaces. Offering a complete set of widgets, GTK+ is suitable for
projects ranging from small one-off tools to complete application
suites.
GTK+ has been designed from the ground up to support a range of
languages, not only C/C++. Using GTK+ from languages such as Perl and
Python (especially in combination with the Glade GUI builder) provides
an effective method of rapid application development.
GTK+ is free software and part of the GNU Project. However, the
licensing terms for GTK+, the GNU LGPL, allow it to be used by all
developers, including those developing proprietary software, without
any license fees or royalties.
Where to get more information about GTK+
========================================
Information about GTK+ including links to documentation can be
found at:
http://www.gtk.org/
An installation guide for GTK+ is found at:
http://library.gnome.org/devel/gtk/2.99/gtk-building.html

Contributing
============
GTK+ is a large project and relies on voluntary contributions.
We are actively searching for new contributors in various areas
and invite everyone to help project development.
If you are willing to participate, please subscribe to the project
mailing lists to offer your help and read over our list of vacant

Overview of Changes in GTK+ 2.99.3
==================================
* This release adds some forgotten padding to class structs,
and thus breaks ABI for a last time before 3.0
* Many Introspection annotation improvements
* We no longer build the gtk-update-icon-cache utility, and
use a preexisting one, if --enable-gtk2-dependency is passed
to configure
* GtkBuilder can now fill GtkComboBoxText and GtkMenToolButton
widgets with data, as well as GtkFileFilters and GtkTextTagTables
* GtkImage now has a ::use-fallback property to allow generic
fallback with GIcons and icon-names (e.g. for symbolic icons)
* There's a new gtk_text_view_get_cursor_locations() to enable
popup-at-cursor functionality
* The application chooser widgets can now set a custom
dialog heading
* The file chooser and application chooser widgets have received
minor visual improvements
* gtk-auto-mnemonics is now backed by an XSetting
* Defaults for GtkSettings, as well as theme-specific settings,
are now read from key files
* Key themes are now supported again, their syntax has been changed
to be CSS-like
* More objects use GtkStyleContext directly now:
GtkTreeView
GtkIconView
GtkCellArea
GtkCellRendererText
GtkCellRendererPixbuf
GtkCellRendererAccel
GtkCellRendererProgress
* GtkPlug and GtkSocket have been reduced to X11-specific API, and
using them requires including the <gtk/gtkx.h> header, and uses
of GdkNativeWindow in their APIs have been replaced by the X11
Window type.
A number of other API changes were necessary in GDK to ensure
that multiple GDK backends can coexist:
- GdkNativeWindow has been dropped
- The GdkEventOwnerChange owner field is a GdkWindow now
- The GdkEventSelection requestor field is a GdkWindow now
- The GtkWidget::client_event vfunc is gone
- GdkEventClient is gone, together with related API:
gdk_add_client_message_filter
gdk_display_add_client_message_filter
gdk_screen_broadcast_client_message
gdk_event_send_client_message
gdk_event_send_client_message_for_display
gdk_event_send_clientmessage_toall
- gdk_drag_get_protocol_for_display has been changed to
gdk_window_get_drag_protocol
