=============================================================================== Gtk# 2.99.0 - 2012-10-23 =============================================================================== Gtk# 2.99.0 is the first release of C# bindings for GTK 3.x. This is a beta release, primarily intended for applications developers who want to start porting their application to GTK 3.x. This version of Gtk# provides bindings for the API exposed by these libraries: * cairo 1.10.0 * glib 2.28.0 * pango 1.28.3 * atk 1.32.0 * gdk-pixbuf 2.22.1 * gtk+ 3.0.0 There is no API stability guarantee for now, but we will try to keep breaking changes to a minimum. This version of Gtk# can be installed in parallel with Gtk# 2.x, and should not have any impact on applications using Gtk# 2.x. Changes ------- * All the new APIs provided by GTK 3.0 and friends are now available. * Gtk# now provides bindings for cairo 1.10 in cairo-sharp.dll. In the future we might go back to using the Mono.Cairo.dll binding included in Mono. * Bindings for Gio are now included, instead of requiring a separate gio-sharp package. * GLib.Object now uses the Dispose pattern. Subclasses that need to do resource clean-up should implement a Dispose(bool) method. * Custom code is now provided solely using partial classes. The Foo.custom files that were used before are now proper Foo.cs files. * Various enhancements to the parser and the generator. Bug fixes --------- * generator: Properly handle boolean attributes when parsing the GAPI XML * glib: do not call g_thread_ functions in GLib >= 2.31 * gtk: Fix resurrection cycles in container subclasses (bxc#3801) Lots of other bug fixes are included, in particular all the relevant fixes from the stable 2.12 branch.
