Enhancements:
+• D-Bus Specification 0.22
+ · Document GetAdtAuditSessionData() and
+ GetConnectionSELinuxSecurityContext() (fd.o #54445, Simon)
+ · Fix example .service file (fd.o #66481, Chengwei Yang)
+
• Be thread-safe by default on all platforms, even if
dbus_threads_init_default() has not been called. For compatibility with
older libdbus, library users should continue to call
dbus_threads_init_default(): it is harmless to do so.
(fd.o #54972, Simon McVittie)
+• Add GetConnectionCredentials() method (fd.o #54445, Simon)
+
+• New API: dbus_setenv(), a simple wrapper around setenv().
+ Note that this is not thread-safe. (fd.o #39196, Simon)
+
Fixes:
• Escape addresses containing non-ASCII characters correctly
• fix build failure with --enable-stats (fd.o #66004, Chengwei Yang)
+• fix a regression test on platforms with strict alignment (fd.o #67279,
+ Colin Walters)
+
+• Avoid calling function parameters "interface" since certain Windows headers
+ have a namespace-polluting macro of that name (fd.o #66493, Ivan Romanov)
+
+• Assorted Doxygen fixes (fd.o #65755, Chengwei Yang)
+
• Unix-specific:
+ · dbus-run-session: clear some unwanted environment variables
+ (fd.o #39196, Simon)
· dbus-run-session: compile on FreeBSD (fd.o #66197, Chengwei Yang)
• Windows-specific:
· Remove unavailable command-line options from 'dbus-daemon --help'
(fd.o #42441, Ralf Habacker)
+ · Add support for looking up local TCPv4 clients' credentials on
+ Windows XP via the undocumented AllocateAndGetTcpExTableFromStack
+ function (fd.o #66060, Ralf Habacker)
• Internal changes:
· add DBUS_ENABLE_ASSERT, DBUS_ENABLE_CHECKS for less confusing
· improve verbose-mode output (fd.o #63047, Colin Walters)
· consolidate Autotools and CMake build (fd.o #64875, Ralf Habacker)
· fix various unused variables, unusual build configurations
- etc. (fd.o #65712, #65990, #66005; Chengwei Yang)
+ etc. (fd.o #65712, #65990, #66005, #66257; Chengwei Yang)
D-Bus 1.7.4 (2013-06-13)
==
• Improve dbus-send documentation and command-line parsing (fd.o #65424,
Chengwei Yang)
+Unix-specific:
+ · dbus-run-session: experimental new tool to start a temporary D-Bus
+ session, e.g. for regression tests or a text console, replacing
+ certain uses of dbus-launch which weren't really correct
+ (fd.o #39196, Simon)
+
Other fixes:
• In dbus-daemon, don't crash if a .service file starts with key=value
