Overview of changes from GLib 2.29.2 to 2.29.4 ============================================== * GDBus: - Includes several new types to support modeling D-Bus objects and interfaces more fully, and also introduces an 'object manager' pattern: GDBusInterface, GDBusObject, GDBusObjectManager These interfaces have client-side implementations: GDBusProxy, GDBusObjectProxy, GDBusObjectManagerClient And server-side implementations: GDBusInterfaceSkeleton, GDBusObjectSkeleton, GDBusObjectManagerServer - The new gdbus-codegen utility uses these new classes to generate C code and documentation from D-Bus interface descriptions in XML * GTest: - There is now a g_test_fail() function to mark tests as failed * GDesktopAppInfo - Now has a binding-friendly filename property - Other new API to more fully expose desktop file contents: g_desktop_app_info_get_categories(), g_desktop_app_info_get_generic_name() * GHashTable: - Several optimizations to reduce space consumption of large hash tables, in particular tables that are used to store sets. * Unix-specific APIs: GLib now installs a separate header, glib-unix.h, that is meant to collect Unix-specific APIs. For now, it contains g_unix_open_pipe(), g_unix_set_fd_non_blocking() for dealing with pipes and fds, as well as APIs to create mainloop sources which can trigger callbacks on certain Unix signals (SIGTERM, SIGHUP, SIGINT). * Bugs fixed: 631379 GDBus nonce-tcp test failing 632631 GLib-CRITICAL **: g_variant_new_string: assertion... 635694 gdbus aborting due to unauthorized socket in DBUS_... 637561 Crash when using G_DBUS_SERVER_FLAGS_RUN_IN_THREAD 642935 g_date_time_format() prints wrong value for %z... 643134 g_dbus_message_copy 644941 glib-unix: New Unix-specific API 646013 g_hash_table_remove_all_nodes optimization 646309 glib cannot be cross-compilled for mingw32 646435 GTimeZone doesn't seem to be thread-safe 646957 GIO chained calls don't work with a thread default context 647594 README link to mailing list is broken 647602 Cannot connect to remote message bus via TCP 647746 The GSocketService documentation is incomplete. 647826 API: gtester: Add g_test_fail() 647903 GDesktopAppInfo: Add g_desktop_app_info_get_categories() 648416 g_app_info_create_from_commandline ignores SUPPORTS_... 648423 Support G_DEBUG=trap-warnings 648425 GDesktopAppInfo: Add "filename" property for bindings 648966 Update g_unichar_iswide and g_unichar_iswide_cjk * Updated translations Norwegian bokmÃl Spanish Turkish Uighur Thanks to everybody who contributed to this release: Ryan Lortie Colin Walters David Zeuthen Kean Johnston Simon McVittie Michael Kuhn Benjamin Otte Dan Winship Thomas Hindoe Paboel Andersen Chun-wei Fan Michael Terry Christian Persch Murray Cumming Maciej Piechotka David Schleef Shaun McCance Alexander Larsson Behdad Esfahbod Morten Welinder Ray Strode May 4, 2011 Matthias Clasen _______________________________________________ gtk-list mailing list gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
