GLib 2.19.8 released

Recommended Posts

GLib 2.19.8 is now available for download at:

 

ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/glib/2.19/

http://download.gnome.org/sources/glib/2.19/

 

glib-2.19.8.tar.bz2 md5sum: b2898de261b212dcc1244b624ed756a5

glib-2.19.8.tar.gz md5sum: 4a087c57405b8135d610d94fe43e76da

 

This is the a development release leading up to GLib 2.20.

 

Notes:

 

* This is unstable development release. While it has had

a bit of testing, there are certainly plenty of bugs

remaining to be found. This release should not be used

in production.

 

* Installing this version will overwrite your existing

copy of GLib 2.18. If you have problems, you'll need

to reinstall GLib 2.18.

 

* GLib 2.20 will be source and binary compatible with

the GLib 2.18 series; the new API additions in GLib 2.19

are finalized at this point.

 

* Bugs should be reported to http://bugzilla.gnome.org.

 

 

About GLib

==========

 

GLib is the low-level core library that forms the basis for projects

such as GTK+ and GNOME. It provides data structure handling for C,

portability wrappers, and interfaces for such runtime functionality as

an event loop, threads, dynamic loading, and an object system.

 

More information about GLib is available at:

 

http://www.gtk.org/

 

An installation guide for the GTK+ libraries, including GLib, can

be found at:

 

http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/gtk/gtk-building.html

 

 

Overview of Changes from GLib 2.19.7 to GLib 2.19.8

===================================================

 

* GIO: Fix missing exports of new API

 

* Fix strict aliasing warnings and violations to make Glib work

with gcc 4.4

 

 

Thanks to Jakub Jelinek for the strict aliasing fixes.
