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. GLib 2.28 is a stable release adding an incremental improvement in functionality over GLib 2.26 while maintaining binary and source compatibility. Major new features include: * GSettings: - The schema compiler will now skip over broken .xml schemas - Endianness problems have been fixed - Better support for ranges * The gsettings utility - Supports ranges too - Gained a list-recursively command - Has completion support for enumeration values * GApplication has been rewritten; see the API docs for details and examples. The action support is not complete yet. * GAppInfo: - GIO now uses x-scheme-handler mimetypes when looking for default applications. The gio-desktop-app-info-lookup extension point is no longer used. - The g_desktop_app_info_launch_* functions now emit a DBus signal when an application is launched. * GMain: - The mainloop has gained 'dispatch to context' functionality, which can replace manually created idle sources in many cases. - GLib is now linked against librt and uses monotonic time for timeouts and for GTimer. * The Unicode support has been updated for Unicode 6.0. * The included PCRE has been updated to 8.12.
