Overview of changes in GLib 2.59.0
|
||||||
|
==================================
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* This will be the last development release with autotools support. As our
|
||||||
|
Meson support has been around since 2.56.x, and was used to release tarballs
|
||||||
|
in 2.58.x, the next development release (2.59.1) will drop autotools as used
|
||||||
|
to build GLib. The macros installed for other packages to use will remain.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Add `G_TEST_OPTION_ISOLATE_DIRS` to redirect `XDG_*_HOME` to a temporary
|
||||||
|
directory for each unit test. (#538)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Support `Property.EmitsChangedSignal` annotations in `gdbus-codegen`. (#542)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Add `g_assert_cmpvariant()` API for unit tests. (#1191)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Hide bind mounts from GIO mount listings. (#1271)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Automatically realign data passed to `g_variant_new_from_bytes()` or
|
||||||
|
`g_variant_new_from_data()` if it is not correctly aligned. This prevents
|
||||||
|
misaligned accesses on architectures which don’t support them. Callers should
|
||||||
|
still aim to correctly align data to get higher performance. (#1342)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Support `ld -b binary` (on platforms which support it; i.e. Linux) to provide
|
||||||
|
large pre-compiled `GResource` resources with a fast compilation time. (#1489)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Unconditionally install GLib m4 macros, so that projects which depend on GLib
|
||||||
|
and which still build using autotools can continue to build even once GLib has
|
||||||
|
ported entirely to Meson. (#1520)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Various fixes to the Meson build.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Drop Python 2 support and require Python 3.4+. See discussion on
|
||||||
|
https://mail.gnome.org/archives/desktop-devel-list/2018-July/msg00004.html.
|
||||||
|
(!196)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* `GHashTable` performance and memory improvements for common cases. See
|
||||||
|
https://hpjansson.org/blag/2018/07/24/a-hash-table-re-hash/. (!208)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Add flags that allow a `GApplication` to signal and replace a currently
|
||||||
|
running other instance of the same `GApplication`. This will be used for app
|
||||||
|
upgrades with flatpak. (!250)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Autostart xdg-desktop-portal when using the network monitor and proxy monitor
|
||||||
|
portal backends. (!317)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Add a g_task_set_name() API to allow `GTask`s to be described; useful for
|
||||||
|
debugging. (!384)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Enable FreeBSD CI on every commit for upstream GLib. (!387)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Various GVariant, GMarkup and GDBus fuzzing fixes, including buffer overflow
|
||||||
|
fixes. (!411)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Various fixes to eliminate thread races, found by thread sanitizer (tsan).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Deprecate TLS/DTLS rehandshaking, as it has been removed from the protocol in
|
||||||
|
TLS 1.3. (!478)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Support reading arguments from a file with `glib-mkenums`, which is useful
|
||||||
|
for long argument lists due to having deeply nested build directories, on
|
||||||
|
systems with a low limit on the command line length. (!489)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Make `g_environ_*()` case-insensitive on Windows, as the environment itself
|
||||||
|
is case-insensitive on Windows. (!500)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Add Application Layer Protocol Negotiation (ALPN) support to `GTlsConnection`
|
||||||
|
and `GDtlsConnection`, so that higher layer protocols can be negotiated when
|
||||||
|
setting up a TLS connection, without additional round trips and latency. This
|
||||||
|
is needed for eventual HTTP/2 support. (!520)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Add support for TPM keys in PEM files when loading TLS certificates. (!522)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Add a `GRecMutexLocker` auto-pointer wrapper for `GRecMutex`. (!528)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
