+
+This release introduces a hard dependency on present and functioning

+release is known to be broken with at least GNU/Hurd, pending addition
+of working pthread_condattr_setclock(CLOCK_MONOTONIC) there.

+Overview of changes from GLib 2.39.0 to GLib 2.39.1
+====================================================
+
+ * GSettings fixes/improvements
+
+ - GSettingsSchema API is now more powerful and consistent
+
+ - new GSettingsSchemaKey API allows accessing metadata for keys:
+ type, default value, range and the long-awaited support for summary
+ and description
+
+ - GSettingsSchemaSource gains support for listing schemas within a
+ source. Deprecate the global API that did this for the default
+ source.
+
+ - 'gsettings list-schemas' now works properly with --schemadir
+
+ - deprecate a bunch of now-redundant functionality on GSettings
+
+ - add API to GSettings for getting the default value of a key (as set
+ by the sysadmin)
+
+ - add API to GSettings for determining if the user has assigned a
+ particular value to a key (ie: we are not just reading the default)
+
+ - ignore qualified tags and attributes appearing in schema files
+
+ * Applications/Actions
+
+ - make GSimpleAction a bit more strict with respect to state changes
+ that would violate the interface (ie: by changing the state type
+ after construction)
+
+ - throw an error when attempting to 'Describe' a non-existent action
+ via D-Bus instead of returning a bogus description
+
+ - throw an error when attempting to invoke unsupported methods on an
+ Application (eg: 'Open' on an app that doesn't HANDLES_OPEN)
+ instead of emitting a g_critical() in context of the app (which is
+ not itself at fault for the errant call)
+
+ * Appinfo
+
+ - substantially rework GDesktopAppInfo to reduce the amount of disk
+ accesses that are performed in common situations
+
+ - add a new class: GAppInfoMonitor for discovering when applications
+ are installed/removed
+
+ - add a new g_desktop_app_info_search() API for searching for
+ installed applications by name, keywords, etc.
+
+ * GMarkup: add new G_MARKUP_IGNORE_QUALIFIED flag for skipping over
+ "qualified" tags and attributes (those with a colon in the name, such
+ as 'my:tag')
+
+ * GDBus
+
+ - ignore qualified tags, as above
+
+ - GTestDBus: unset all D-Bus addresses (such as STARTER) to ensure
+ that test programs don't pick them up
+
+ - add new session_bus_run() convenience in the tests and use it
+
+ * GRand: use real random data as a seed on win32 and use the
+ timestamp/pid/uid fallback only on UNIX machines where we can't open
+ '/dev/urandom'. This may cause issues with older mingw32 releases
+ due to a missing prototype for the rand_s() API.
+
+ * Many win32 (and particularly MSVC) portability fixes. Many
+ additional tests are now runnable when building with MSVC.
+
+ * Due to early testing of the (soon to land) GCleanup framework, a very
+ large number of memory errors have been found and fixed (mostly in
+ the testcases, but some in glib itself).
+
+ * GIO:
+
+ - some more seeking cleanups: particularly on GLocalFileInputStream
+
+ - don't leave a .trashinfo file around if trashing a file fails
+
+ - Add a request_certificate virtual method to GTlsInteraction
+
+Translations updated:
+ Assamese

+
+Overview of changes from GLib 2.38.0 to GLib 2.39.0
+====================================================
+
+ * prep for the 2.40 series (version macros, docs index, etc.)
+
+ * GNotification
+
+ - new API for sending persistent notifications via the desktop shell
+
+ - notifications persist when the application has quit and clicking on
+ them can restart the application with an action (via
+ DBusActivatable)
+
+ * GSubprocess
+
+ - new API for launching subprocesses
+
+ - nice GIO integration like async functions, cancellability, etc.
+
+ - a convenient communicate() API inspired by the same API in Python
+
+ - related: the gspawn API now has a CLOEXEC flag for the created
+ pipes for stdin/stdout/stderr
+
+ * New gapplication(1) commandline tool
+
+ - intended to be used with DBusActivatable apps
+
+ - can be used for launching apps, opening files, invoking application
+ actions and listing apps and actions
+
+ - bash tab completion is supported
+
+ * GDesktopAppInfo changes:
+
+ - g_file_get_path() can implicitly cause a FUSE mount so don't call
+ it until we know we need it (for an app that doesn't support URIs)
+
+ - don't crash when trying to load from a keyfile with
+ DBusActivatable=true
+
+ - remove some dead code, refactor the search path handling a bit and
+ do a large-scale whitespace cleanup (prep work for the pending
+ desktop file index)
+
+ * File monitors
+
+ - fix broken handling of mount point monitoring
+
+ - remove some strange use of GObject::constructor() from the base
+ class and inotify backend
+
+ - fix GFileMonitor to work in the non-default main context even when
+ the main context is not running (or is blocked)
+
+ - add internal private API for easily creating a file monitor in the
+ GLib worker thread
+
+ * GSettings
+
+ - g_settings_list_children: only list viable schemas. This fixes a
+ longstanding issue where 'gsettings list-recursively' will crash
+ when there are invalid schemas installed
+
+ - don't accept invalid paths on g_settings_new_with_path, etc.
+
+ * GIO
+
+ - GFile now has a thumbnail::is-valid attribute to check if the
+ thumbnail in thumbnail::path needs to be regenerated
+
+ - GDBusProxy now has a flag to control autostarting of services at
+ construction time
+
+ - for GSeekable, properly introduce the concept of "resizable" vs.
+ "fixed-sized" streams in the docs, explaining the expected
+ semantics of the interface in each case
+
+ - fix some cases in GMemoryOutputStream that were violating the above
+ expectations (which may cause a slight API incompatibility)
+
+ - clean up GCredentials code and add support for Hurd and Solaris
+
+ - improve splicing by using different codepaths for the case where we
+ have real _read_async() and _write_async() implementations on the
+ stream vs. the case where they are internally emulated (via
+ dispatching the sync variant of the call in a thread)
+
+ * GKeyFile
+
+ - fix a leak in g_key_file_get_(u)int64 when we fail to parse the
+ value as an integer
+
+ - add long-requested API g_key_file_save_to_file()
+
+ * Portability improvements
+
+ - avoid using O_DIRECTORY on platforms that don't have it
+
+ - be careful about systems that define SOCK_CLOEXEC but don't
+ actually support it (like Hurd)
+
+ - only use SA_RESTART if it exists
+
+ * Other small API changes/additions
+
+ - a pair of functions to support matching strings for the type of
+ search functionality that you'd expect to have with things like
+ GtkSearchBar. This will also be used by the desktop file index.
+
+ - g_str_is_ascii() with obvious purpose
+
+ - g_test_expect_message() no longer appears to allow you to catch
+ G_LOG_ERROR messages
+
+ * GMainContext/GSource
+
+ - fix handling of overflowing the 'next source id' counter
+
+ - g_source_remove() will now throw a critical in the case that you
+ try to remove a non-existent source. We expect that there is some
+ code in the wild that will fall afoul of this new critical but
+ considering that we now reuse source IDs, this code is already
+ broken and should probably be fixed.
+
+ - simplify handling of the 'current dispatching source' to not
+ require use of a linked list
+
+ * GObject
+
+ - the long-broken (and leaky) pattern of destroying a just-allocated
+ object from inside of a custom GObject::constructor is now
+ officially completely illegal and will abort the program
+
+ * Unicode: update to 6.3.0
+
+ * Bug fixes
+
+ - g_file_copy() now falls back to pathname queryinfo. This should
+ clear up the bugs with copying from some GVfs backends (afp,
+ gphoto, archive, at least).
+
+ - fix an out-of-bounds read in the xdgmime code
+
+ - fix a typo in the /org/freedesktop/DBus path on the object manager
+ client
+
+ - skip emitting path_namespace='/' in match rules in order to
+ workaround a bug in the D-Bus daemon and fix our own implementation
+ (which shared exactly the same bug)
+
+ - fix crashes on precondition violations for GParamSpec constructors
+
+ - many other small fixups (see bug list)
+
+ * Many documentation improvements
+
+Bugs fixed:
+ 309224 g_key_file_save_to_file missing
+ 583321 QNX: no SA_RESTART
+ 661576 fix handling of constructors that destroy half-constructed objects

+
+What's new in Glib 2.38
+========================
+
+ * Application support
+
+ - GIO now provides an implementation of Desktop Actions from the
+ desktop entry specification
+
+ - GApplication now implements the org.freedesktop.Application
+ interface as per the desktop entry specification, allowing for
+ standards-based D-Bus launching of GLib-based applications
+
+ - GDesktopAppInfo now supports DBusActivatable as per the desktop
+ entry specification, allowing GLib-based applications to use D-Bus
+ to launch other applications
+
+ - GApplication now has a "busy" flag that can be set on an application
+ to allow the shell to show that it is busy
+
+ * GObject
+
+ - the private offset for a given class type is now always constant.
+ This was done by reorganising the memory layout of instances so that
+ the private data comes before the "official" pointer for the object
+ (ie: at a negative offset). Valgrind macros were added to mitigate
+ any problems that this may have caused.
+
+ - a new G_DEFINE_TYPE_WITH_PRIVATE has been added along with a
+ generated function *_get_instance_private() that can now serve as an
+ equally-performing alternative to ->priv pointers in instances
+ (allowing memory savings)
+
+ - new G_PRIVATE_FIELD, G_PRIVATE_FIELD_P and G_PRIVATE_OFFSET macros
+ provide a convenient method of converting between named variables in
+ private structures and their (now constant) offsets
+
+ - installing properties on a GObjectClass must now be done from
+ class_init. It is no longer valid to install them after class_init
+ has returned.
+
+ - it is now possible to manually break a GObject property binding
+ without destroying one of the objects involved
+
+ * Icons
+
+ - the requirements for implementing the GIcon interface have changed
+ in order to make it possible to consume all implementations of GIcon
+ with a finite number of cases
+
+ - a new GBytesIcon type was added for an icon represented by an
+ in-memory binary blob in a known image format (ideally png).
+
+ - new APIs g_icon_serialize() and g_icon_deserialize() replace the old
+ to/from_string APIs and will always work, irrespective of which
+ types have been initialised in the calling process, allowing for a
+ serialised GdkPixbuf to be deserialised in a process that doesn't
+ have GdkPixbuf
+
+ - support for icons has been added to GMenuModel using the new APIs
+
+ * Actions and menus
+
+ - GPropertyAction provides a convenient way of creating a stateful
+ property corresponding to a property on a GObject, such as the
+ "visible-child-name" property of a GtkStack
+
+ - new API g_menu_remove_all()
+
+ - we now have established rules about what is a "valid" action name
+ and an API to check them
+
+ - a new API for converting detailed action names to and from the
+ split-out name and parameter value (as GVariant)
+
+ - for backwards compatibility, invalid action names can still be used
+ with most functions, but this is not recommended
+
+ * Other GIO
+
+ - GDBus now supports services that wish to handle some of all
+ properties on an interface asynchronously, without requiring the
+ service to reimplement the entire org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties
+ interface
+
+ - GFile now has a new _measure_disk_usage() (and async) API for
+ recursively determining the amount of disk space used by a
+ particular directory (akin to 'du').
+
+ - asynchronous version of g_file_trash() and g_file_make_directory()
+ have been added
+
+ * Other new API
+
+ - GRegex has a new function to query the maximum lookbehind length to
+ allow for regexp matching on streams
+
+ - GVariant has two new APIs for constructing strings that allow
+ avoiding copies in some cases: g_variant_new_take_string() and
+ g_variant_new_printf()
+
+ * Testing
+
+ - we can now generate TAP output
+
+ - new support functions for simplifying the process of dealing with
+ data files for srcdir != builddir and installed test cases
+
+ - g_test_trap_subprocess() provides a portable alternative to
+ g_test_trap_fork()
+
+ * Other
+
+ - GLib now builds on Android against the bionic C library

+Overview of changes from GLib 2.37.4 to 2.37.5
+==============================================
+
+* Implement the Desktop Action specification: In the case that the
+ application is a GApplication and DBusActivatable, actions from the

+Overview of changes from GLib 2.35.7 to 2.35.8
+==============================================
+
+This release contains one major change that may cause problems: type
+modules are now never unloaded. This is implemented by (effectively)
+leaking the last reference on dynamic types. Some testcases that check
+for unloading of types have been observed to be broken by this change,
+but we know of no actual cases of "real code" breaking. Please report
+any problems.
+
+Other changes:
+ * A couple of build fixes for Solaris
+ * Fix signal emission for GDBusObjectManagerClient
+ * annotations fixes
+ * new API: g_dbus_address_escape_value()
+ * GSocketClient: add proxy-resolver property
+ * GSimpleProxyResolver: new simple GProxyResolver class
+ * documentation fixes
+ * gnetworkaddress: preserve IPv6 scope ID in IP literals
+
+Bugs fixed:
+ 691105 Allow GSocketClient to override GProxyResolver for per client proxy settings.

+Overview of changes from GLib 2.35.2 to 2.35.3
+==============================================
+
+* This release contains an incompatible change to the g_get_home_dir()
+ function. Previously, this function would effectively ignore the HOME
+ environment variable and always return the value from /etc/password.
+ As of this version, the HOME variable is used if it is set and the
+ value from /etc/passwd is only used as a fallback.
+
+* We now install a public "gnetworking.h" header that can be used to
+ include the relevant OS-dependent networking headers. This does not
+ really abstract away unix-vs-windows however; error codes, in
+ particular, are incompatible.
+
+* Bugs fixed in this release:

+Overview of changes from GLib 2.35.1 to 2.35.2
+==============================================
+
+Note that the incompatible change to the ->constructed() vfunc that was
+made in the last unstable release (2.35.1) has been reverted due to
+causing regressions in applications.
+
+A new incompatible change has been introduced in this version: it is no
+longer permitted to add interfaces to a class after the first
+instantiation (or more strictly: after g_type_class_ref()). Bug #687659
+is tracking this.
+
+Two private symbols (g_menu_{attribute,link}_hash_iter_get_type) which
+were accidentally exported have also been properly hidden. This may
+cause some tools to issue warnings about ABI mismatch.
+
+The remaining changes should be relatively harmless:
+
+ * GIO now has kqueue support for GFileMonitor (BSDs, Mac OS)
+
+ * New g_variant_new_from_bytes() API
+
+ * UNIX signal sources now allow watching SIGUSR1 and SIGUSR2
+
+ * Many pedantic cleanups to adhere to a higher level of -W use
+
+ * GTask changes to avoid a deadlock
+
+ * many cleanups/fixes for Windows
+
+ * Boxing for GPollFD, GIOChannel, GBytes, GByteArray
+
+ * Fix URL-encoding of trashed files
+
+ * Many other docs and annotations fixes

+Overview of changes from GLib 2.31.6 to 2.31.8
+==============================================
+
+* GObject:
+ - The type checks for overriding properties have been loosened.
+ In particular, it is now possible to add the CONSTRUCT flag
+ to an overridden property
+ - GWeakRef is a new API for weak references; unlike g_object_weak_ref
+ and g_object_add_weak_pointer, it is thread-safe.
+

+Overview of changes from GLib 2.31.4 to 2.31.6
+==============================================
+
+* GApplication no longer has APIs for setting menus. Those have been
+ moved to GtkApplication.
+
+* the GActionGroup import/export functionality has been decoupled from
+ GApplication by the introduction of a new interface for the purpose of
+ handling platform data: GRemoteActionGroup. This allows Gtk to
+ properly deal with platform data (and gdk threads) on window actions.
+
+* lots of documentation improvements
+
+* bug fixes and a huge number of memory leak fixes
+
+* the test suite now passes on ARM and some of the GDBus testcase hangs
+ we've been seeing have been resolved (although others could remain)
+
+* g_bytes_get_data() API changed: now includes 'size' out parameter
+
+* new g_queue_free_full() API similar to g_[s]list_free_full()
+
+* desktop files: use standard "Keywords" now, not "X-GNOME-Keywords"
+
+* gsettings commandline tool now has --schemadir option for schemas not
+ installed in the usual place (ie: as part of plugins)
+
+* Bugs fixed:
+ 643736 GApplication doesn't emit dbus signals on action updates
+ 657433 g_queue_free_full() missing
+ 664699 glib: documentation fixes
+ 665737 acquire/release gdk threads lock on incoming dbus
+ 665879 GBytes: add a size argument to g_bytes_get_data
+ 666113 various leaks in GLib, GIO are visible in the regression tests
+ 666115 various tests leak memory, obscuring real leaks in the library
+ 666145 Doc could be more explicite that g_thread_init calls can be droped
+ 666173 Configure warning - linux/netlink.h usability... no
+ 666296 Race condition in g_thread_xp_get_srwlock
+ 666415 Settings tools should allow specifying a schema directory
+
+* Translations updated:
+ French
+ Spanish
+
+Overview of changes from GLib 2.31.2 to 2.31.4
+==============================================
+
+* EXPERIMENTAL: Menu support has been added to GApplication. Menus
+ are exported on the bus, alongside the actions that are already there.
+ There have also been many related improvements to action group
+ functionality.
+
+ These new APIs are subject to changes in the coming releases. In
+ particular, it seems somewhat likely that the APIs for registering
+ menubars may change in order to accommodate windows with different
+ types of menubars.
+
+* GDBusConnection previously directly dispatched destroy notifies when
+ unregistering objects if the current main context was the same context
+ the object was exported on. It now unconditionally dispatches these
+ through an idle on the context.
+
+* Clean up Requires in pc files. Linking against GIO no
+ longer drags in gmodule. This may require dependency
+ fixes here and there.
+
+* Introduce GBytes, a data type for immutable, fixed-size
+ byte sequences. This makes the pre-existing GBuffer
+ API available outside GLib
+
+* GDBusInterfaceSkeleton can now be exported on multiple
+ connections
+

+Overview of changes from GLib 2.31.0 to 2.31.2
+==============================================
+
+* Monotonic time is now properly supported on Windows
+
+* glib-mkenums: fix @ENUMPREFIX@ with /*< underscore_name=... >*/
+
+* EXPERIMENTAL: introduce new GSettingsSchema and GSettingsSchemaSource
+ APIs for the convenience of plugin system authors and those who wish
+ to introspect the contents of schemas. This API may change.
+
+* Improve the performance of GObject property notifies.
+
+* GDBus:
+ - fix a race when unowning a name immediately after owning it
+ - thread safety improvements on GDBusConnection
+ - fixes for exit-on-close functionality
+
+* Deprecations:
+ - add G_SIGNAL_DEPRECATED
+ - don't use G_DISABLE_DEPRECATED masking for functions anymore
+
+* docs
+ - tmpl/ is finally dead for glib
+
+* GIO:
+ - GInetAddressMask: new type for internet address range matching
+ - various GIO file and stream fixes
+ - improvements to attribute and fileinfo handling
+
+Overview of changes from GLib 2.29/2.30 to 2.31.0
+=================================================
+
+This release contains a huge number of changes (500 commits worth). The
+list below attempts to summarise, but not every change is listed.
+
+* Major changes to threading and synchronisation
+ - threading is now always enabled in GLib
+ - support for custom thread implementations (including our own internal
+ support for errorcheck mutexes) has been removed
+ - a whole lot of dead code (to deal with the non-threaded case) has
+ been ripped out. This includes the racy path of GMainContext that
+ caused deadlocks with respect to child process exits in
+ single-threaded programs (such as gtester).
+ - libgthread is now an empty shell and g_thread_init() is no longer
+ required (and has been deprecated)
+ - GMutex and GCond can now be statically allocated without explicit
+ initialisation. Dynamic allocation for these types is deprecated.
+ - new types GRecMutex and GRWLock can also be statically allocated
+ without explicit initialisation.
+ - GPrivate can now be statically allocated and has an improved API.
+ Dynamic allocation of GPrivate is deprecated.
+ - GStaticMutex, GStaticRecMutex, GStaticRwLock, GStaticPrivate are
+ deprecated.
+ - GCond now uses monotonic time internally and a new API takes
+ monotonic time for timed waits, deprecating the wallclock API
+ - removal of the insane macro indirection used in the previous
+ implementation of threading and synchronisation APIs
+ - use SRWLock and CONDITION_VARIABLE APIs when available on Windows
+ (Vista and later) and emulate them on XP
+ - leaks of G(Static)Private-allocated data on some cases of thread exit
+ have been fixed
+ - simplified new thread creation API with the old API deprecated. The
+ concept of joinability has disappeared (all threads are joinable) as
+ have priority levels, 'bound'ness (ie: kernel vs. userspace threads)
+ and ability to manipulate the stack size.
+ - GThread is now a refcounted type
+ - other implementation details changed
+
+* Move headers for some deprecated functionality to a separate
+ deprecated/ directory.
+
+* New support for attribute-based deprecations to issue compiler
+ warnings instead of breaking the build and/or giving warnings about
+ implicit declarations (and possibly miscompiling).
+
+* GCache has been deprecated (after its last use was removed from our
+ platform over a year ago).
+
+* It is no longer possible to include individual headers (like
+ "ghash.h") -- you must #include <glib.h>.
+
+* The misguided experiment of allowing the program to stumble along with
+ missing GSettings schemas is now over -- the abort is back.
+
+* Clarify that fork() is not valid while using GMainContext. This is
+ because the internal resources of the GMainContext end up being shared
+ by both processes. We had an assert here but it was breaking existing
+ (valid) use cases as well, so it has been removed for now.
+
+* GApplication
+ - add ::shutdown signal as logical dual to ::startup
+ - don't use a GMainLoop: iterate the GMainContext directly (improves
+ quit logic)
+
+* Several portability fixes for Windows, OpenBSD, Solaris
+
+* Add new GValue API to specifically deal in signed chars (in case the
+ platform defines 'char' as unsigned)
+
+* some new API to mitigate the problems associated with calling setenv()
+ in a multi-threaded program
+
+* Use CLOCK_MONOTONIC unconditionally if the libc has support at compile
+ time (ie: stop checking for kernel support at runtime).
+
+* pkg-config files:
+ - drop -uninstalled variants
+ - remove gobject dependency on gthread
+
+* New macro G_ATOMIC_LOCK_FREE is defined if the atomic operations are
+ implemented without use of a mutex. Cleaned up atomic-related
+ compilation issues with mingw compilers on win32 systems.
+
+* SOCKS proxy and resolver improvements
+
+* Fix the spelling of G_IO_FLAG_IS_WRITABLE (was WRITEABLE) and
+ introduce a macro for backwards compatibility.
+
+* GDBus:
+ - many code generation updates and improvements
+ - some race condition fixes, including testcase hangs
+
+* GVariant:
+ - new g_variant_new_from_fixed_array() API
+ - substantial docs improvements/clarifications
+
+* GKeyFile is now refcounted and boxed
+
+* mount monitoring is now based on /proc/mounts (where available)
+ instead of mtab
+
+* new macros G_SOURCE_CONTINUE and G_SOURCE_REMOVE for returning from
+ GSourceFunc (so you don't have to remember what TRUE and FALSE mean)
+
+* use xlocale functions where available to avoid too much heavy lifting
+ in functions like g_ascii_strtod()
+
+* GMappedFile can now be created from an fd
+
+* error message strings grammar/i18n fixes
+
+* many docs updates
+

+ - revert the addition of g_date_time_source_new () from last release
+
+* networking and other fixes for Solaris

+Overview of changes from GLib 2.29.4 to 2.29.6
+==============================================
+
+* Atomic operations have been rewritten from scratch to make use
+ of gcc builtins where possible. As a side-effect of this, calls
+ to g_atomic_ API with explicit casts may now be problematic; if
+ that happens to you, try first to remove the casts. Another
+ side-effect of the rewrite is that g_atomic_int_exchange_and_add
+ has been deprecated in favor of g_atomic_int_add.
+
+* A full set of atomic operations on pointers has been added,
+ including bit locks in pointer-size locations.
+
+* Access to quarks is now lockless
+
+* GObject data scalability has been greatly improved

+
+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 `g_utf8_validate (string, -1, NULL)' failed
+ 635694 gdbus aborting due to unauthorized socket in DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS

+ 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_STARTUP_NOTIFICATION
+ 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

+ Spanish
+ Turkish
+ Uighur

+
+* GOption now uses /proc/self/cmdline to set the program name instead
+ and only falls back to "<unknown>" if that is unavailable
+
+* GSettings:
+ - The schema compiler now warns about references to non-existing schemas
+
+* Commandline utilities are now fully translated

+
+Overview of Changes from GLib 2.27.2 to 2.27.3
+==============================================
+
+* The GTimeSpec type that was introduced in the 2.27.2 has been
+ dropped again in favour of APIs that return microseconds as
+ 64-bit integer.
+ Affected functions:
+ g_source_get_time
+ g_periodic_unblock
+ g_get_monotonic_time
+ g_get_real_time
+ The similar GTimeVal struct is still around, but its use is
+ discouraged.
+
+* GTimer is now using monotonic time unconditionally
+
+* There are some new functions to facilitate error reporting
+ in async GIO APIs:
+ g_simple_async_result_take_error
+ g_simple_async_result_new_take_error
+ g_simple_async_report_take_gerror_in_idle
+
+* There is new convenience API to us GVariant dictionaries:
+ g_variant_lookup
+
+* It is now possible to delay sending match rules to the
+ D-Bus daemon in GDBus:
+ G_DBUS_SIGNAL_FLAGS_NO_MATCH_RULE
+
+* Support has been added for XDG_RUNTIME_DIR:
+ g_get_user_runtime_dir
+
+* Various fixes for Win64/MSVC builds have been committed

+
+Overview of Changes from GLib 2.27.1 to 2.27.2
+==============================================
+
+* GApplication
+ - Export actions over DBus and support activating them from remote instances
+ - Support environment passing
+
+* GSettings
+ - The gsettings utility has a list-recursively command
+ - The gsettings utility has commandline completion for enum values
+
+* GLib is now linked against librt and uses monotonic time for
+ timeouts and GPeriod sources. GSource has a new g_source_get_time()
+ which returns monotonic time, and g_source_get_current_time() has
+ been deprecated
+
+* Bugs fixed:
+ 158725 free linked list with data
+ 626320 GVariant: Avoid locking in g_variant_get_child_value() if possible
+ 629247 add gsimpleasyncresult methods to take over a GError
+ 629274 GNetworkService does not do fallback when there is no SRV record
+ 631264 gsettings-tool choice/range support
+ 631482 g_date_time_from_instant: 1000000000000000000
+ 632169 docs for manual use of gsettings-data-convert
+ 632571 Add equivalent to gconftool-2's -R option
+ 633115 GSettings m4 doesn't fail the build for broken schemas
+ 633206 Default g_application_local_command_line() doesn't set exit_status...
+ 633339 support more complex gapplication setups
+ 633356 Make timeout G_MAXINT mean "no timeout"
+
+* Translation updates:
+ Catalan (Valencian)
+ Indonesian
+ Japanese
+
+
+Overview of Changes from GLib 2.27.0 to 2.27.1
+==============================================
+
+* GDateTime now has full week number support.
+ New API: g_date_time_get_week_numbering_year
+
+* The GSettings schema compiler will now skip over
+ broken .xml schema files instead of aborting altogether
+
+* GSettings now works properly on bigendian systems
+
+* GSettings has more complete support for ranges
+ New API:
+ g_settings_get_range
+ g_settings_range_check
+ The gsettings commandline tool supports ranges too.
+
+* GApplication has been rewritten; see the API docs for details
+ and examples. The action support is not complete yet.
+
+* The GLib mainloop has gained 'dispatch to context' functionality,
+ which can replace manually created idles in many cases.
+ New API:
+ g_main_context_invoke
+ g_main_context_invoke_full
+
+* The gio-desktop-app-info-lookup extension point has been
+ removed from GIO. GIO now uses x-scheme-handler mimetypes when
+ looking for default applications.
+
+* On win32, make g_get_user_data_dir() return the CSIDL_LOCAL_APPDATA
+ folder on Windows, and not CSIDL_PERSONAL. This matches what Qt does,
+ and has been widely requested. Also make g_get_user_config_dir() return
+ this and not the (roaming) CSIDL_APPDATA folder.
+
+* A periodic event clock has been added in GIO: GPeriodic. Note that this
+ API is still experimental and expected to undergo changes before it
+ will be incorporated into a stable GLib release. Use at your own risk.
+
+Bug fixes:
+ 613822 gobject signal connect/disconnect not thread safe
+ 618737 "dispatch to context" functionality
+ 620710 g_get_user_data_dir() uses CSIDL_PERSONAL and not CSIDL_APPDATA
+ 623400 acquire context before dispatching
+ 627126 gsettings schema files don't get installed on FreeBSD
+ 627171 g_socket_new_from_fd() doesn't set the right protocol
+ 628876 Wrong error description
+ 628937 gracefully handle broken schemas
+ 629274 GNetworkService doesn't fallback when there is no SRV record
+ 629289 g_error() used wrong, produces core dump

+Overview of Changes from GLib 2.25.12 to GLib 2.25.13
+=====================================================
+
++-------------------------------------------------------------------+
+| WARNING: There have been no breaks in API or ABI. Weird, eh? |
++-------------------------------------------------------------------+
+
+The primary purpose of this release is to fix a serious problem with
+glib 2.25.12: glibconfig.h (as generated on a Fedora amd64 system) was
+being distributed in the tarball. It was being used to build some parts
+of glib on other systems (eg: 32bit ones). This was causing some very
+serious problems.
+
+There have been many other improvements, however:
+
+ Build and testing:
+ - vastly improved test coverage
+ - old tests moved to the gtester framework
+ - gtester Makefile modified so that the tests only run once
+ - cleanup of how we handle includes while building glib
+
+ GVariant:
+ - add a g_return_if_fail (utf8) to g_variant_new_string()
+
+ GDBus:
+ - perform extra sanity checks when serialising messages
+ - add API to query and set the byteorder of a GDBusMessage
+ - improve debug output, add some extra options
+ - if exiting due to the bus disconnecting us, print an error message
+ explaining why
+ - sort property names correctly
+ - don't bother sending RemoveMatch when we will close the connection
+ anyway
+ - use effective uid/gid for credential passing
+
+ GSettings:
+ - add G_SETTINGS_BIND_INVERT_BOOLEAN for inverting boolean bindings
+ without mapping functions
+ - mark all strings in the schema compiler for translation
+
+ Binding:
+ - improve closure support for bindings
+ - copy GSettings INVERT_BOOLEAN flag
+
+ Other:
+ - fix another complicated GCancellable deadlock possibility
+
+Bugs closed:
+ 599590 glib build doesn't look for correct pkg-config
+ 619026 avoid warning in gutils.h when using gcc with -Wconversion
+ 624739 Please fix POTFILES.in
+ 625472 Valgrind claims uninitialized bytes used
+ 625500 g_date_set_time_val documentation doesn't mention local time
+ 625628 GDBusProxy: wrong property name sorting
+ 625753 Incorrect flags used in g_dbus_connection_call_sync()
+ 625827 Expand documentation about error quark naming

+Overview of Changes from GLib 2.25.11 to GLib 2.25.12
+=====================================================
+
++-------------------------------------------------------------------+
+| WARNING: There have been many API changes in GDBus -- sending |
+| messages, subscribing to signals, closing connections and |
+| registering subtrees are affected. The ABI for GSettingsBackend |
+| has also been changed. For both reasons, a new dconf release is |
+| required (and will be along soon). |
++-------------------------------------------------------------------+
+
+Build:
+ - cleanup automake setup
+ - rename configure.in to configure.ac
+ - various docs fixups
+ - move glibconfig.h to glib/
+ - disable dtrace support on Mac OS (which has incompatible 'dtrace')
+
+GSettings:
+ - add support for vendor override files (to change the default values
+ in a schema)
+ - change GSettingsBackend vtable
+ - add g_settings_reset()
+ - support binding to G_TYPE_STRV properties
+
+GDBus:
+ - many bug fixes, including a serialisation fix
+ - stop handling incoming connections as soon as stop() is called
+ - proper support for file descriptor passing
+ - new flags parameter for sending messages
+ - new flags parameter for subscribing to signals
+ - always reset the message serial when sending a message unless
+ G_DBUS_SEND_MESSAGE_FLAGS_PRESERVE_SERIAL is given
+ - constness fixes for introspection structures
+ - clean ups to subtree registration API
+
+Other:
+ - fix divide by zero bug in g_malloc_n functions
+ - GIO: don't blindly assume that SOCK_CLOEXEC is supported
+ - make GObject property notify freezes threadsafe
+ - GIO: clean up credentials passing
+ - GApplication: make default-quit not apply if register=FALSE
+ - GIO: add annotations for gobject-introspection
+
+Bugs closed:
+ 166020 use GAtomic for refcounting
+ 617483 Credentials passing
+ 622005 [GApplication] no way to modify the "default-quit" property
+ 623293 vendor override files
+ 623810 Message serialization bug

+Overview of Changes from GLib 2.25.10 to GLib 2.25.11
+=====================================================
+
++-------------------------------------------------------------------+
+| WARNING: There have been minor API changes in GDBus and GVariant. |
+| These API changes will not affect many users, but they do require |
+| a new version of GTK+ to be installed. |
++-------------------------------------------------------------------+
+
+Build:
+ - add a --disable-Bsymbolic configure flag to disable linking with
+ -Bsymbolic-functions
+ - this release sees the complete removal of the old 'g*alias' hacks
+ - honour the NOCONFIGURE environment variable from autogen.sh
+ - use proper feature test macros for isnan
+ - use pkg-config to check for zlib
+ - add ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS to Makefile.am
+
+GDBus:
+ - hide Class and instance structures for all GDBus types except
+ GDBusProxy. This breaks API by preventing subclassing, but probably
+ nobody was doing that.
+ - add new GDBusConnection call to support flushing all pending
+ outgoing messages
+ - change the register_object API to add a reference to the
+ GDBusInterfaceInfo object so the caller need not keep it alive
+ themselves
+ - don't rewrite the serial number when sending messages that already
+ have a serial number
+ - better error checking for DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS environment
+ variable
+ - switch to g_parse_debug_string for G_DBUS_DEBUG and add a lot of new
+ flags
+ - add support for temporarily freezing a freshly created
+ GDBusConnection. Do this until after the ::new-connection signal
+ has finished running on GDBus services.
+ - never require non-closed connections (the user is incapable of doing
+ this due to the obvious race)
+ - remove weird/misleading redundant check on NameOwnerChanged signal
+ - emit GDBusProxy::g-properties-changed on NameOwnerChanged
+
+GVariant:
+ - the 'g_variant_{new,get}_byte_array' APIs have been removed
+ - g_variant_{new,get,dup}_bytestring has been added, with different
+ arguments and different behaviour
+ - g_variant_{new,get,dup}_bytestring_array has been added, doing
+ essentially the same thing as the 'strv' functions, but with byte
+ strings instead of utf8 strings
+ - G_VARIANT_TYPE_BYTESTRING ('ay'), BYTESTRING_ARRAY ('aay') and
+ STRING_ARRAY ('as') constants have been added
+ - the undocumented behaviour that g_variant_get_strv() deserialised
+ arrays of object paths or signature strings has been dropped

+ arrays with ^ay ^aay ^&ay and ^a&ay
+ - improved gobject-introspection annotation
+ - fix a problem with GBuffer calling g_slice_free for the wrong type
+ - fix leaks in the type inferencing code of the parser
+
+GSettings:
+ - improved documentation
+ - updated schema XML DTD, now xincluded into the docs
+ - added support for schemas that extend other schemas (using the
+ 'extends=' attribute). Values of keys in the base schema can be
+ overridden using <override>.
+ - added theoretical support for lists (using the 'list-of=' attribute)
+ - lots of new tests
+ - add support for flags (implemented similarly to enums)
+ - add support for generating .enums.xml files to gsettings.m4:
+ gsettings_ENUM_NAMESPACE = org.example.myapp
+ gsettings_ENUM_FILES = ../path/to/*.h
+ will generate org.example.myapp.enums.xml with mappings for all
+ enums and flags in the specified .h files.
+ - warn with g_message() if the 'memory' backend is used by default
+ (ie: because no other GSettings backends are installed)
+ - fix get_property() for GSettings::schema
+ - command line tool: fix a bug that prevented non-basic values from
+ being set due to a premature free
+ - command line tool: bash completion support
+ - chain up in _finalize
+ - add a new g_settings_get_mapped API to read settings that require
+ post-processing
+ - retry with the translated or schema default value if the
+ GSettingsBindGetMapping function fails
+ - schema compiler: never fail due to empty schema directories (but
+ warn)
+ - peek rather than ref/unref the GEnumClass in the mapping function
+ - schema compiler: compile *.enums.xml before *.gschemas.xml to ensure
+ that we have all the enums that the schemas may reference
+ - schema compiler: improve accuracy of line numbers in error reports
+ - fix crashes in the keyfile backend caused by invalid group names in
+ the keyfile
+
+Other:
+ - always intern GBinding prop names
+ - base64: remove asserts preventing conversion of empty strings
+ - document NULL special-cases for GValueArray
+ - GNode docs improvements
+ - improve detection of 'system internal' mounts
+ - fix leaks in the inotify GFileMonitor implementation

+ SystemTap)
+
+Tests:
+ - Turn on glibc malloc checking features for make check
+ - improvements for GSettings tests, plus new tests
+ - improved tests for GKeyfile
+ - new tests for GDir, GSList, GSList, GAppLaunchContext,
+ CharsetConverter, GIcon, ...
+ - move some tests to GTester (tree tests, uri tests)
+ - generally, really an awful lot of new tests
+ - don't try to allocate 2gigs of memory anymore for the array test
+
+ 552363 g_value_array_{insert,prepend,append}'s special cases for NULL

+===================================================
+
++----------------------------------------------------------------+
+| WARNING: There have been API changes in GDBus, GSettings and |
+| GApplication. Users of these APIs will need to be adapted. In |
+| particular, a new release of GTK+ is required to go along with |
+| this one. |
++----------------------------------------------------------------+
+
+* GDBus

+Overview of Changes from GLib 2.22.x to GLib 2.23.0
+===================================================
+
+* GIO:
+ - GConverter: a generic interface for stateful conversions of data,
+ suitable for charset conversion, compression, decompression, regexp
+ replacement. Concrete implementations are GCharsetConverter,
+ GZlibCompressor and GZlibDecompressor. GConverterInputStream,
+ GConverterOutputStream are stream implementations that convert data
+ while loading or saving it.
+ - GMounts can now have a 'default location': a path that reflects
+ the main entry point for the user (e.g. the home directory).
+ - As a consequence of the compression support, GIO depends on zlib now.
+
+* GObject:
+ - G_IMPLEMENT_INTERFACE_DYNAMIC: a convenience macro for adding
+ interfaces to dynamic types.
+
+* GModule:
+ - The -pthread flag has been added to all gmodule .pc files, because
+ it is not generally permissible to load modules that are linked
+ against libpthread if the program has not been compiled with threading
+ support.
+
+* Bugs fixed:

+Overview of Changes from GLib 2.18.1 to GLib 2.19.0
+===================================================
+
+* Rewrite GHashTable to use open addressing with quadratic probing instead
+ of chaining. This has the potential to reduce memory fragmentation
+ significantly, while being slightly faster due to better locality and
+ no need to call alloc/free functions for nodes. Benchmarks suggest it
+ also uses less memory overall.
+
+* Make g_poll available as public api
+
+* New macros g_assert_error and g_assert_no_error to assert
+ that a GError is set or unset
+
+* g_cancellable_make_pollfd: New method to make a GPollFD for a cancellable
+
+* g_app_info_can_delete, g_app_info_delete, g_app_info_reset_type_associations:
+ New functions to clean up app infos and content types
+
+* When launching applications, always pass fuse file:// uris when possible,
+ and let gio convert such uris back to gio uris.

+ 505361 gunixinputstream.c assumes poll() available
