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.

News
====

* GApplication no longer has APIs for setting menus.  Those have been
  moved to GtkApplication.

* the GActionGroup import/export functionality has been decoupled from
  GApplication by the introduction of a new interface for the purpose of
  handling platform data: GRemoteActionGroup.  This allows Gtk to
  properly deal with platform data (and gdk threads) on window actions.

* lots of documentation improvements

* bug fixes and a huge number of memory leak fixes

* the test suite now passes on ARM and some of the GDBus testcase hangs
  we've been seeing have been resolved (although others could remain)

* g_bytes_get_data() API changed: now includes 'size' out parameter

* new g_queue_free_full() API similar to g_[s]list_free_full()

* desktop files: use standard "Keywords" now, not "X-GNOME-Keywords"

* gsettings commandline tool now has --schemadir option for schemas not
  installed in the usual place (ie: as part of plugins)
