ccf73a90a66477d6d31e50aeabebad8e0035f80e98ac0e926157c3d7e229b31e libunique-1.1.2.tar.gz

LibUnique is everyone's (least) favorite library for writing single

instance applications. LibUnique makes it easy to write this kind of

applications by providing a base class, taking care of all the IPC

machinery needed to send messages to a running instance, and also

handling the startup notification side.

Unique aims to replace the BaconMessageConnection code that has been

copied by many projects, and the equivalent code using Bonobo or D-Bus.

Notes:

- This is the first unstable release of the 1.1 development cycle

- The API is fully compatible with LibUnique 1.0.*

Requirements:

- gobject-2.0 >= 2.12

- gtk+-2.0 >= 2.11

- dbus-glib-1

List of changes for 1.1.2

* Follow GTK+'s single header include policy [Armin Burgmeier]

* Remove a weak reference on the watched window [Armin Burgmeier]

* Rework the build environment:

- use a recent syntax for the configure.ac

- use AS_COMPILER_FLAGS to ensure portability

- use Shave to clean up the build output

* Allow compiling out the Unix Domain Socket backend (bacon)

* Use the D-Bus backend by default

* Use GTK-Doc >= 1.11 to generate a proper Index

* Use X11-specific API only if we have support for it

ciao,

Emmanuele.
