Hi,
Here's the shortlog for 1.35.3. I want to highlight in particular
"ABI CHANGE: Switch String -> uint8 array coercion to be UTF8"
(commit d15b8e3ebdc406f2bf92350c9e403f2512f25bf6, linked to bug
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=680730 )
This is something that gjs-based application and component authors should
be aware of. I expect overall it will be an improvement - code which previously
corrupted non-ASCII strings will no longer do so. But it's possible for
someone to have been relying on this (in hindsight) poor design choice.
Colin Walters (12):
Add new GBytes API and conversions
arg: Fix memory leak in exception path in array conversion
arg: Throw an explicit error if we don't know how to make an array
arg: Unify copy&paste argument conversion error code into helper function
gi: Add a nicer toString() for boxed objects too
build: Use -Bsymbolic-functions by default if available
ABI CHANGE: Switch String -> uint8 array coercion to be UTF8
strings: Avoid copy of utf16 data in case where g_mem_is_system_malloc()
build: Allow disabling cairo
tests: Add a test for importing a module which uses literal UTF-8
value: Avoid a copy/free when setting a string property
Release 1.35.3
