news 28 Posted March 13, 2009 GLib 2.20.0 is now available for download at: ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/glib/2.20 http://download.gnome.org/sources/glib/2.20 glib-2.20.0.tar.bz2 md5sum: 05188e560dbd8bddd568e24ce10dd003 glib-2.20.0.tar.gz md5sum: 81a6151c9591378af31d78e7eb304e71 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. GLib 2.20 is a stable release adding an incremental improvement in functionality over GLib 2.18 while maintaining binary and source compatibility. Major new features include: * Optimizations of GHashTable and GMarkup * Support for in-place decoding of base64 strings * When launching applications, always pass fuse file:// uris when possible, and let gio convert such uris back to gio uris. This can be turned off using the X-GIO-NoFuse desktop file key. * GIO has a concept of 'shadowed' mounts For more details and lists of fixed bugs, see the announcements of the 2.19.x development releases: http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-devel-list/2008-October/msg00115.html http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-devel-list/2008-December/msg00000.html http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-devel-list/2008-December/msg00001.html http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-devel-list/2009-January/msg00006.html http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-devel-list/2009-January/msg00088.html http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-devel-list/2009-February/msg00007.html http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-devel-list/2009-February/msg00069.html http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-devel-list/2009-February/msg00070.html http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-devel-list/2009-March/msg00005.html More information about GLib is available at: http://www.gtk.org/ The GLib Team: Hans Breuer, Matthias Clasen, Tim Janik, Tor Lillqvist, Manish Singh, Owen Taylor, and Sebastian Wilhelmi Thanks to all contributors, including Alexander Larsson Andreas Köhler Andrew Feren Andrzej Zaborowski Anis Elleuch Armin Burgmeier A.
