1 libxkbcommon 0.4.2 - 2014-05-15
4 - Fixed a bug where explicitly passing "--enable-x11" to ./configure would
5 in fact disable it (regressed in 0.4.1).
7 - Added @since version annotations to the API documentation for everything
8 introduced after the initial stable release (0.2.0).
10 - Added a section to the documentation about keysym transformations, and
11 clarified which functions perform a given transformation.
13 - XKB files which fail to compile during keymap construction can no longer
14 have any effect on the resulting keymap: changes are only applied when
15 the entire compilation succeeds.
16 Note: this was a minor correctness issue inherited from xkbcomp.
18 - Fix an out-of-bounds array access in src/x11/util.c:adopt_atoms()
20 Note: it seems impossible to trigger in the current code since the input
21 size cannot exceed the required size.
23 libxkbcommon 0.4.1 - 2014-03-27
26 - Converted README to markdown and added a Quick Guide to the
27 documentation, which breezes through the most common parts of
30 - Added two new functions, xkb_state_key_get_utf{8,32}(). They
31 combine the operations of xkb_state_key_get_syms() and
32 xkb_keysym_to_utf{8,32}(), and provide a nicer interface for it
33 (espcially for multiple-keysyms-per-level).
35 - The xkb_state_key_get_utf{8,32}() functions now apply Control
36 transformation: when the Control modifier is active, the string
37 is converted to an appropriate control character.
38 This matches the behavior of libX11's XLookupString(3), and
39 required by the XKB specification:

42 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=75892
44 - The consumed modifiers for a key are now calculated similarly
45 to libX11. The previous behavior caused a bug where Shift would
46 not cancel an active Caps Lock.
48 - Make xkbcommon-x11 work with the keymap reported by the XQuartz
51 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=75798
53 - Reduce memory usage during keymap compilation some more.
56 xkb_state_key_get_consumed_mods()
57 xkb_state_key_get_utf8()
58 xkb_state_key_get_utf32()
61 XKB_MAP_COMPILE_PLACEHOLDER, XKB_MAP_NO_FLAGS
62 use XKB_KEYMAP_NO_FLAGS instead.
66 libxkbcommon 0.4.0 - 2014-02-02
69 - Add a new add-on library, xkbcommon-x11, to support creating keymaps
70 with the XKB X11 protocol, by querying the X server directly.
71 See the xkbcommon/xkbcommon-x11.h header file for more details.
72 This library requires libxcb-xkb >= 1.10, and is enabled by default.
73 It can be disabled with the --disable-x11 configure switch.
74 Distributions are encouraged to split the necessary files for this
75 library (libxkbcommon-x11.so, xkbcommon-x11.pc, xkbcommon/xkbcommon-x11.h)
76 to a separate package, such that the main package does not depend on
79 - Fix the keysym <-> name lookup table to not require huge amounts of
82 - Fix a bug in the keysym <-> name lookup, whereby lookup might fail in
85 - Reduce memory usage during keymap compilation.
88 New keysyms from xproto 7.0.25 (German T3 layout keysyms).
89 XKB_MOD_NAME_NUM for the usual NumLock modifier.
90 xkb_x11_* types and functions, XKB_X11_* constants.
93 libxkbcommon 0.3.2 - 2013-11-22
96 - Log messages from the library now look like "xkbcommon: ERROR" by
97 default, instead of xkbcomp-like "Error: ".
99 - Apply capitalization transformation on keysyms in
100 xkb_keysym_get_one_sym(), to match the behavior specified in the XKB
102 http://www.x.org/releases/current/doc/kbproto/xkbproto.html#Interpreting_the_Lock_Modifier
104 - Support byacc for generating the parser, in addition to Bison.
107 XKB_KEY_XF86AudioMicMute keysym from xproto 7.0.24.
110 XKB_MAP_COMPILE_NO_FLAGS
115 libxkbcommon 0.3.1 - 2013-06-03
118 - Replace the flex scanner with a hand-written one. flex is no longer
122 xkb_keymap_min_keycode()
123 xkb_keymap_max_keycode()
124 xkb_keymap_key_for_each()
127 libxkbcommon 0.3.0 - 2013-04-01
130 - Allow passing NULL to *_unref() functions; do nothing instead of
133 - The functions xkb_keymap_num_levels_for_key() and
134 xkb_keymap_get_syms_by_level() now allow out-of-range values for the
135 'layout' parameter. The functions now wrap the value around the number
136 of layouts instead of failing.
138 - The function xkb_keysym_get_name() now types unicode keysyms in
139 uppercase and 0-padding, to match the format used by XKeysymToString().
141 - Building Linux-specific tests is no longer attempted on non-Linux
144 - The function xkb_keymap_new_from_names() now accepts a NULL value for
145 the 'names' parameter, instead of failing. This is equivalent to passing
146 a 'struct xkb_rule_names' with all fields set to NULL.
149 xkb_keymap_new_from_buffer()
