1 libxkbcommon 1.5.0 - 2023-01-02
4 - Add `xkb_context` flag `XKB_CONTEXT_NO_SECURE_GETENV` and `rxkb_context` flag
5 `RXKB_CONTEXT_NO_SECURE_GETENV`.
7 xkbcommon uses `getenv_secure()` to obtain environment variables. This flag
8 makes xkbcommon use `getenv()` instead.
10 This is useful for some clients that have relatively benign capabilities set,
11 like CAP_SYS_NICE, that also want to use e.g. the XKB configuration from the
12 environment and user configs in XDG_CONFIG_HOME.
14 Contributed by Ronan Pigott.
16 - Fix crash in `xkbcli interactive-wayland` under a compositor which supports
17 new versions of the xdg-shell protocol.
19 Contributed by Jan Alexander Steffens (heftig).
21 - Fix some MSVC build issues.
23 - Fix some issues when including xkbcommon as a meson subproject.
25 - meson>=0.51 is now required.
28 libxkbcommon 1.4.1 - 2022-05-21
31 - Fix compose sequence overriding (common prefix) not working correctly.
34 Contributed by Weng Xuetian.
36 - Remove various bogus currency sign (particulary Euro and Korean Won) entries
37 from the keysym <-> Unicode mappings. They prevented the real
38 keysyms/codepoints for these from mapping correctly.
40 Contributed by Sam Lantinga and Simon Ser.
42 libxkbcommon 1.4.0 - 2022-02-04
45 - Add `enable-tools` option to Meson build (on by default) to allow disabling
48 Contributed by Alex Xu (Hello71).
50 - In `xkbcli list`, fix "YAML Norway problem" in output.
52 Contributed by Peter Hutterer.
54 - In libxkbregistry, variants now inherit iso639, iso3166 and brief from parent
57 Contributed by M Hickford.
59 - In libxkbregistry, don't call `xmlCleanupParser()` - it's not supposed to
60 be called by libraries.
62 Contributed by Peter Hutterer.
64 - In libxkbregistry, skip over invalid ISO-639 or ISO-3166 entries.
66 Contributed by Peter Hutterer.
68 libxkbcommon 1.3.1 - 2021-09-10
71 - In `xkbcli interactive-x11`, use the Esc keysym instead of the Esc keycode
74 Contributed by Simon Ser.
76 - In `xkbcli how-to-type`, add `--keysym` argugment for how to type a keysym
77 instead of a Unicode codepoint.
79 - Fix a crash in `xkb_x11_keymap_new_from_device` error handling given some
80 invalid keymaps. Regressed in 1.2.0.
82 Reported by Zack Weinberg. Tested by Uli Schlachter.
84 libxkbcommon 1.3.0 - 2021-05-01
87 - Change `xkbcli list` to output YAML, instead of the previous ad-hoc format.
89 This allows to more easily process the information in a programmetic way, for
92 xkbcli list | yq -r ".layouts[].layout"
94 Contributed by Peter Hutterer.
96 - Optimize a certain part of keymap compilation (atom interning).
98 - Fix segmentation fault in case-insensitive `xkb_keysym_from_name` for certain
99 values like the empty string.
101 Contributed by Isaac Freund.
103 - Support building libxkbcommon as a meson subproject.
105 Contributed by Adrian Perez de Castro.
107 - Add `ftruncate` fallback for `posix_fallocate` in `xkbcli interactive-wayland`
110 Contributed by Evgeniy Khramtsov.
112 - Properly export library symbols in MSVC.
114 Contributed by Adrian Perez de Castro.
116 libxkbcommon 1.2.1 - 2021-04-07
119 - Fix `xkb_x11_keymap_new_from_device()` failing when the keymap contains key
120 types with missing level names, like the one used by the `numpad:mac` option
121 in xkeyboard-config. Regressed in 1.2.0.
123 libxkbcommon 1.2.0 - 2021-04-03
126 - `xkb_x11_keymap_new_from_device()` is much faster. It now performs only 2
127 roundtrips to the X server, instead of dozens (in first-time calls).
129 Contributed by Uli Schlachter.
131 - Case-sensitive `xkb_keysym_from_name()` is much faster.
133 - Keysym names of the form `0x12AB` and `U12AB` are parsed more strictly.
134 Previously the hexadecimal part was parsed with `strtoul()`, now only up
135 to 8 hexadecimal digits (0-9A-Fa-f) are allowed.
137 - Compose files now have a size limit (65535 internal nodes). Further sequences
138 are discared and a warning is issued.
140 - Compose table loading (`xkb_compose_table_new_from_locale()` and similar) is
143 - Use `poll()` instead of `epoll()` for `xlbcli interactive-evdev`, making it
144 portable to FreeBSD which provides evdev but not epoll. On FreeBSD, remember
145 to install the `evdev-proto` package to get the evdev headers.
147 - The build now requires a C11 compiler (uses anonymous structs/unions).
149 libxkbcommon 1.1.0 - 2021-02-27
152 - Publish the `xkb-format-text-v1.md` file in the HTML documentation. This file
153 existed for a long time but only in the Git repository.
154 Link: https://xkbcommon.org/doc/current/md_doc_keymap_format_text_v1.html
156 - Add partial documentation for xkb_symbols to xkb-format-text-v1.md.
158 Contributed by Simon Zeni.
160 - Update keysym definitions to latest xorgproto. In particular, this adds many
161 special keysyms corresponding to Linux evdev keycodes.
163 Contributed by Peter Hutterer <@who-t.net>.
166 Too many XKB_KEY_* definitions to list here.
168 libxkbcommon 1.0.3 - 2020-11-23
171 - Fix (hopefully) a segfault in xkb_x11_keymap_new_from_device() in some
172 unclear situation (bug introduced in 1.0.2).
174 - Fix keymaps created with xkb_x11_keymap_new_from_device() don't have level
175 names (bug introduced in 0.8.0).
177 libxkbcommon 1.0.2 - 2020-11-20
180 - Fix a bug where a keysym that cannot be resolved in a keymap gets compiled to
181 a garbage keysym. Now it is set to XKB_KEY_NoSymbol instead.
183 - Improve the speed of xkb_x11_keymap_new_from_device() on repeated calls in the
187 libxkbcommon 1.0.1 - 2020-09-11
190 - Fix the tool-option-parsing test failing.
192 - Remove requirement for pytest in the tool-option-parsing test.
194 - Make the table output of `xkbcli how-to-type` aligned.
196 - Some portability and test isolation fixes.
198 libxkbcommon 1.0.0 - 2020-09-05
201 Note: this release is API and ABI compatible with previous releases -- the
202 major version bump is only an indication of stability.
204 - Add libxkbregistry as configure-time optional library. libxkbregistry is a C
205 library that lists available XKB models, layouts and variants for a given
206 ruleset. This is a separate library (libxkbregistry.so, pkgconfig file
207 xkbregistry.pc) and aimed at tools that provide a listing of available
208 keyboard layouts to the user. See the Documentation for details on the API.
210 Contributed by Peter Hutterer <@who-t.net>.
212 - Better support custom user configuration:
214 * Allow including XKB files from other paths.
216 Previously, a 'symbols/us' file in path A would shadow the same file in
217 path B. This is suboptimal, we rarely need to hide the system files - we
218 care mostly about *extending* them. By continuing to check other lookup
219 paths, we make it possible for a XDG_CONFIG_HOME/xkb/symbols/us file to
220 have sections including those from /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/us.
222 Note that this is not possible for rules files, which need to be manually
223 controlled to get the right bits resolved.
225 * Add /etc/xkb as extra lookup path for system data files.
227 This completes the usual triplet of configuration locations available for
229 - vendor-provided data files in /usr/share/X11/xkb
230 - system-specific data files in /etc/xkb
231 - user-specific data files in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/xkb
233 The default lookup order user, system, vendor, just like everything else
234 that uses these conventions.
236 For include directives in rules files, the '%E' resolves to that path.
238 * Add a new section to the documentation for custom user configuration.
240 Contributed by Peter Hutterer <@who-t.net>.
242 - Add an `xkbcli` command-line utility.
244 This tool offers various subcommands for introspection and debugging.
245 Currently the available subcommands are:
248 List available rules, models, layouts, variants and options
251 Interactive debugger for XKB keymaps for Wayland
254 Interactive debugger for XKB keymaps for X11
257 Interactive debugger for XKB keymaps for evdev (Linux)
260 Compile an XKB keymap
263 See separate entry below.
265 See the manpages for usage information.
267 Contributed by Peter Hutterer <@who-t.net>.
269 - Add `xkb_utf32_to_keysym()` to translate a Unicode codepoint to a keysym.
270 When a special keysym (`XKB_KEY_` constant) for the codepoint exists, it is
271 returned, otherwise the direct encoding is used, if permissible.
273 Contributed by Jaroslaw Kubik <@froglogic.com>.
275 - Add `xkb_keymap_key_get_mods_for_level()` which retrieves sets of modifiers
276 which produce a given shift level in a given key+layout.
278 Contributed by Jaroslaw Kubik <@froglogic.com>.
280 - Add `xkbcli how-to-type` command, which, using `xkb_utf32_to_keysym()`
281 and `xkb_keymap_key_get_mods_for_level()` and other APIs, prints out all
282 the ways to produce a given keysym.
284 For example, how to type `?` (codepoint 63) in a us,de keymap?
286 $ xkbcli how-to-type --layout us,de 63 | column -ts $'\t'
287 keysym: question (0x3f)
288 KEYCODE KEY NAME LAYOUT# LAYOUT NAME LEVEL# MODIFIERS
289 20 AE11 2 German 2 [ Shift ]
290 20 AE11 2 German 2 [ Shift Lock ]
291 61 AB10 1 English (US) 2 [ Shift ]
293 - Add a new section to the documentation describing the format of the XKB
296 - Search for Compose in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/XCompose (fallback to
297 ~/.config/XCompose) before trying $HOME/.XCompose.
299 Note that libX11 still only searches in $HOME/.XCompose.
301 Contributed by Emmanuel Gil Peyrot <@linkmauve.fr>.
303 - Bump meson requirement to >= 0.49.0.
305 - Fix build with byacc.
307 - Fix building X11 tests on PE targets.
309 Contributed by Jon Turney <@dronecode.org.uk>
311 - The tests no longer rely on bash, only Python (which is already used by
316 xkb_keymap_key_get_mods_for_level
317 XKB_KEY_XF86FullScreen
320 libxkbcommon 0.10.0 - 2020-01-18
323 - (security) Fix quadratic complexity in the XKB file parser. See commit
324 message 7c42945e04a2107827a057245298dedc0475cc88 for details.
326 - Add $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/xkb to the default search path. If $XDG_CONFIG_HOME
327 is not set, $HOME/.config/xkb is used. If $HOME is not set, the path is not
330 The XDG path is looked up before the existing default search path $HOME/.xkb.
332 Contributed by Peter Hutterer <@who-t.net>.
334 - Add support for include statements in XKB rules files.
336 This is a step towards making local XKB customizations more tenable and
337 convenient, without modifying system files.
339 You can now include other rules files like this:
343 Two directives are supported, %H to $HOME and %S for the system-installed
344 rules directory (usually /usr/share/X11/xkb/rules).
346 See commit message ca033a29d2ca910fd17b1ae287cb420205bdddc8 and
347 doc/rules-format.txt in the xkbcommon source code for more information.
349 Contributed by Peter Hutterer <@who-t.net>.
351 - Downgrade "Symbol added to modifier map for multiple modifiers" log to a
354 This error message was too annoying to be shown by default. When working on
355 keymaps, set `XKB_LOG_LEVEL=debug XKB_LOG_VERBOSITY=10` to see all possible
358 - Support building on Windows using the meson MSVC backend.
360 Contributed by Adrian Perez de Castro <@igalia.com>.
362 - Fix bug where the merge mode only applied to the first vmod in a
363 `virtual_modifiers` statement. Given
365 augment virtual_modifiers NumLock,Alt,LevelThree
367 Previously it was incorrectly treated as
369 augment virtual_modifiers NumLock;
370 virtual_modifiers Alt;
371 virtual_modifiers LevelThree;
375 augment virtual_modifiers NumLock;
376 augment virtual_modifiers Alt;
377 augment virtual_modifiers LevelThree;
379 - Reject interpret modifier predicate with more than one value. Given
381 interpret ISO_Level3_Shift+AnyOf(all,extraneous) { ... };
383 Previously, extraneous (and further) was ignored. Now it's rejected.
385 - Correctly handle capitalization of the ssharp keysym.
387 - Speed up and improve the internal `xkeyboard-config` tool. This tool
388 compiles all layout/variant combinations in the xkeyboard-config dataset
389 and reports any issues it finds.
391 Contributed by Peter Hutterer <@who-t.net>.
393 - Speed up "atoms" (string interning). This code goes back at least to X11R1
397 libxkbcommon 0.9.1 - 2019-10-19
400 - Fix context creation failing when run in privileged processes as defined by
401 `secure_getenv(3)`, e.g. GDM.
404 libxkbcommon 0.9.0 - 2019-10-19
407 - Move ~/.xkb to before XKB_CONFIG_ROOT (the system XKB path, usually
408 /usr/share/X11/xkb) in the default include path. This enables the user
409 to have full control of the keymap definitions, instead of only augmenting
412 - Remove the Autotools build system. Use the meson build system instead.
414 - Fix invalid names used for levels above 8 when dumping keymaps. Previously,
415 e.g. "Level20" was dumped, but only up to "Level8" is accepted by the
416 parser. Now "20" is dumped.
418 - Change level references to always be dumped as e.g. "5" instead of "Level5".
420 Change group references to always be dumped capitalized e.g. "Group3" instead
421 of "group3". Previously it was inconsistent.
423 These changes affect the output of xkb_keymap_get_as_string().
425 - Fix several build issues on macOS/Darwin, Solaris, NetBSD, cross compilation.
427 - Port the interactive-wayland test program to the stable version of xdg-shell.
430 libxkbcommon 0.8.4 - 2019-02-22
433 - Fix build of xkbcommon-x11 static library with meson.
435 - Fix building using meson from the tarball generated by autotools.
438 libxkbcommon 0.8.3 - 2019-02-08
441 - Fix build of static libraries with meson.
442 (Future note: xkbcommon-x11 was *not* fixed in this release.)

446 XKB_KEY_XF86RotationLockToggle
449 libxkbcommon 0.8.2 - 2018-08-05
452 - Fix various problems found with fuzzing (see commit messages for
455 - Fix a few NULL-dereferences, out-of-bounds access and undefined behavior
456 in the XKB text format parser.
459 libxkbcommon 0.8.1 - 2018-08-03
462 - Fix various problems found in the meson build (see commit messages for more
465 - Fix compilation on Darwin.
467 - Fix compilation of the x11 tests and demos when XCB is installed in a
468 non-standard location.
470 - Fix xkbcommon-x11.pc missing the Requires specification.
472 - Fix various problems found with fuzzing and Coverity (see commit messages for
475 - Fix stack overflow in the XKB text format parser when evaluating boolean
478 - Fix NULL-dereferences in the XKB text format parser when some unsupported
479 tokens appear (the tokens are still parsed for backward compatibility).
481 - Fix NULL-dereference in the XKB text format parser when parsing an
482 xkb_geometry section.
484 - Fix an infinite loop in the Compose text format parser on some inputs.
486 - Fix an invalid free() when using multiple keysyms.
488 - Replace the Unicode characters for the leftanglebracket and rightanglebracket
489 keysyms from the deprecated LEFT/RIGHT-POINTING ANGLE BRACKET to
490 MATHEMATICAL LEFT/RIGHT ANGLE BRACKET.
492 - Reject out-of-range Unicode codepoints in xkb_keysym_to_utf8 and
496 libxkbcommon 0.8.0 - 2017-12-15
499 - Added xkb_keysym_to_{upper,lower} to perform case-conversion directly on
500 keysyms. This is useful in some odd cases, but working with the Unicode
501 representations should be preferred when possible.
503 - Added Unicode conversion rules for the signifblank and permille keysyms.
505 - Fixed a bug in the parsing of XKB key type definitions where the number
506 of levels were determined by the number of level *names*. Keymaps which
507 omit level names were hence miscompiled.
509 This regressed in version 0.4.3. Keymaps from xkeyboard-config were not
510 affected since they don't omit level names.
513 xkb_keysym_to_upper()
514 xkb_keysym_to_lower()
517 libxkbcommon 0.7.2 - 2017-08-04
520 - Added a Meson build system as an alternative to existing autotools build
523 The intent is to remove the autotools build in one of the next releases.
524 Please try to convert to it and report any problems.
526 See http://mesonbuild.com/Quick-guide.html for basic usage, the
527 meson_options.txt for the project-specific configuration options,
528 and the PACKAGING file for more details.
530 There are some noteworthy differences compared to the autotools build:
532 - Feature auto-detection is not performed. By default, all features are
533 enabled (currently: docs, x11, wayland). The build fails if any of
534 the required dependencies are not available. To disable a feature,
535 pass -Denable-<feature>=false to meson.
537 - The libraries are either installed as shared or static, as specified
538 by the -Ddefault_library=shared/static option. With autotools, both
539 versions are installed by default.
541 - xorg-util-macros is not used.
543 - A parser generator (bison/byacc) is always required - there is no
544 fallback to pre-generated output bundled in the tarball, as there is
547 - Removed Android.mk support.
549 - Removed the *-uninstalled.pc pkgconfig files.
551 - Ported the interactive-wayland demo program to v6 of the xdg-shell
554 - Added new keysym definitions from xproto.
560 XKB_KEY_XF86AudioPreset
563 libxkbcommon 0.7.1 - 2017-01-18
566 - Fixed various reported problems when the current locale is tr_TR.UTF-8.
568 The function xkb_keysym_from_name() used to perform case-insensitive
569 string comparisons in a locale-dependent way, but required it to to
570 work as in the C/ASCII locale (the so called "Turkish i problem").
572 The function is now no longer affected by the current locale.
574 - Fixed compilation in NetBSD.
577 libxkbcommon 0.7.0 - 2016-11-11
580 - Added support for different "modes" of calculating consumed modifiers.
581 The existing mode, based on the XKB standard, has proven to be
582 unintuitive in various shortcut implementations.
584 A new mode, based on the calculation used by the GTK toolkit, is added.
585 This mode is less eager to declare a modifier as consumed.
587 - Added a new interactive demo program using the Wayland protocol.
588 See the PACKAGING file for the new (optional) test dependencies.
590 - Fixed a compilation error on GNU Hurd.

600 libxkbcommon 0.6.1 - 2016-04-08
603 - Added LICENSE to distributed files in tarball releases.
605 - Minor typo fix in xkb_keymap_get_as_string() documentation.
608 libxkbcommon 0.6.0 - 2016-03-16
611 - If the XKB_CONFIG_ROOT environment variable is set, it is used as the XKB
612 configuration root instead of the path determined at build time.
614 - Tests and benchmarks now build correctly on OSX.
616 - An XKB keymap provides a name for each key it defines. Traditionally,
617 these names are limited to at most 4 characters, and are thus somewhat
618 obscure, but might still be useful (xkbcommon lifts the 4 character limit).
620 The new functions xkb_keymap_key_get_name() and xkb_keymap_key_by_name()
621 can be used to get the name of a key or find a key by name. Note that
622 a key may have aliases.
624 - Documentation improvements.
627 xkb_keymap_key_by_name()
628 xkb_keymap_key_get_name()
631 libxkbcommon 0.5.0 - 2014-10-18
634 - Added support for Compose/dead keys in a new module (included in
635 libxkbcommon). See the documentation or the
636 xkbcommon/xkbcommon-compose.h header file for more details.
638 - Improved and reordered some sections of the documentation.
640 - The doxygen HTML pages were made nicer to read.
642 - Most tests now run also on non-linux platforms.
644 - A warning is emitted by default about RMLVO values which are not used
645 during keymap compilation, which are most often a user misconfiguration.
646 For example, "terminate:ctrl_alt_backspace" instead of
647 "terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp".
649 - Added symbol versioning for libxkbcommon and libxkbcommon-x11.
650 Note: binaries compiled against this and future versions will not be
651 able to link against the previous versions of the library.
653 - Removed several compatablity symbols from the binary (the API isn't
654 affected). This affects binaries which
656 1. Were compiled against a pre-stable (<0.2.0) version of libxkbcommon, and
657 2. Are linked against the this or later version of libxkbcommon.
659 Such a scenario is likely to fail already.
661 - If Xvfb is not available, the x11comp test is now correctly skipped
664 - Benchmarks were moved to a separate bench/ directory.
666 - Build fixes from OpenBSD.
668 - Fixed a bug where key type entries such as "map[None] = Level2;" were
676 libxkbcommon 0.4.3 - 2014-08-19
679 - Fixed a bug which caused xkb_x11_keymap_new_from_device() to misrepresent
680 modifiers for some keymaps.
682 https://github.com/xkbcommon/libxkbcommon/issues/9
684 - Fixed a bug which caused xkb_x11_keymap_new_from_device() to ignore XKB
687 - Modifiers are now always fully resolved after xkb_state_update_mask().
688 Previously the given state components were used as-is, without
689 considering virtual modifier mappings.
690 Note: this only affects non-standard uses of xkb_state_update_mask().
692 - Added a test for xkbcommon-x11, "x11comp". The test uses the system's
693 Xvfb server and xkbcomp. If they do not exist or fail, the test is
696 - Fixed memory leaks after parse errors in the XKB yacc parser.
697 The fix required changes which are currently incompatible with byacc.
700 libxkbcommon 0.4.2 - 2014-05-15
703 - Fixed a bug where explicitly passing "--enable-x11" to ./configure would
704 in fact disable it (regressed in 0.4.1).
706 - Added @since version annotations to the API documentation for everything
707 introduced after the initial stable release (0.2.0).
709 - Added a section to the documentation about keysym transformations, and
710 clarified which functions perform a given transformation.
712 - XKB files which fail to compile during keymap construction can no longer
713 have any effect on the resulting keymap: changes are only applied when
714 the entire compilation succeeds.
715 Note: this was a minor correctness issue inherited from xkbcomp.
717 - Fix an out-of-bounds array access in src/x11/util.c:adopt_atoms()
719 Note: it seems impossible to trigger in the current code since the input
720 size cannot exceed the required size.
723 libxkbcommon 0.4.1 - 2014-03-27
726 - Converted README to markdown and added a Quick Guide to the
727 documentation, which breezes through the most common parts of
730 - Added two new functions, xkb_state_key_get_utf{8,32}(). They
731 combine the operations of xkb_state_key_get_syms() and
732 xkb_keysym_to_utf{8,32}(), and provide a nicer interface for it
733 (espcially for multiple-keysyms-per-level).
735 - The xkb_state_key_get_utf{8,32}() functions now apply Control
736 transformation: when the Control modifier is active, the string
737 is converted to an appropriate control character.
738 This matches the behavior of libX11's XLookupString(3), and
739 required by the XKB specification:

742 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=75892
744 - The consumed modifiers for a key are now calculated similarly
745 to libX11. The previous behavior caused a bug where Shift would
746 not cancel an active Caps Lock.
748 - Make xkbcommon-x11 work with the keymap reported by the XQuartz
751 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=75798
753 - Reduce memory usage during keymap compilation some more.
756 xkb_state_key_get_consumed_mods()
757 xkb_state_key_get_utf8()
758 xkb_state_key_get_utf32()
761 XKB_MAP_COMPILE_PLACEHOLDER, XKB_MAP_NO_FLAGS
762 use XKB_KEYMAP_NO_FLAGS instead.
767 libxkbcommon 0.4.0 - 2014-02-02
770 - Add a new add-on library, xkbcommon-x11, to support creating keymaps
771 with the XKB X11 protocol, by querying the X server directly.
772 See the xkbcommon/xkbcommon-x11.h header file for more details.
773 This library requires libxcb-xkb >= 1.10, and is enabled by default.
774 It can be disabled with the --disable-x11 configure switch.
775 Distributions are encouraged to split the necessary files for this
776 library (libxkbcommon-x11.so, xkbcommon-x11.pc, xkbcommon/xkbcommon-x11.h)
777 to a separate package, such that the main package does not depend on
780 - Fix the keysym <-> name lookup table to not require huge amounts of
783 - Fix a bug in the keysym <-> name lookup, whereby lookup might fail in
786 - Reduce memory usage during keymap compilation.
789 New keysyms from xproto 7.0.25 (German T3 layout keysyms).
790 XKB_MOD_NAME_NUM for the usual NumLock modifier.
791 xkb_x11_* types and functions, XKB_X11_* constants.
794 libxkbcommon 0.3.2 - 2013-11-22
797 - Log messages from the library now look like "xkbcommon: ERROR" by
798 default, instead of xkbcomp-like "Error: ".
800 - Apply capitalization transformation on keysyms in
801 xkb_keysym_get_one_sym(), to match the behavior specified in the XKB
803 https://www.x.org/releases/current/doc/kbproto/xkbproto.html#Interpreting_the_Lock_Modifier
805 - Support byacc for generating the parser, in addition to Bison.
808 XKB_KEY_XF86AudioMicMute keysym from xproto 7.0.24.
811 XKB_MAP_COMPILE_NO_FLAGS
816 libxkbcommon 0.3.1 - 2013-06-03
819 - Replace the flex scanner with a hand-written one. flex is no longer
823 xkb_keymap_min_keycode()
824 xkb_keymap_max_keycode()
825 xkb_keymap_key_for_each()
828 libxkbcommon 0.3.0 - 2013-04-01
831 - Allow passing NULL to *_unref() functions; do nothing instead of
834 - The functions xkb_keymap_num_levels_for_key() and
835 xkb_keymap_get_syms_by_level() now allow out-of-range values for the
836 'layout' parameter. The functions now wrap the value around the number
837 of layouts instead of failing.
839 - The function xkb_keysym_get_name() now types unicode keysyms in
840 uppercase and 0-padding, to match the format used by XKeysymToString().
842 - Building Linux-specific tests is no longer attempted on non-Linux
845 - The function xkb_keymap_new_from_names() now accepts a NULL value for
846 the 'names' parameter, instead of failing. This is equivalent to passing
847 a 'struct xkb_rule_names' with all fields set to NULL.
