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
====
* Tarball built with `ninja dist`, so if you want to build this release with
autotools (which is supported), you will need to re-run autogen.sh. This
release, and all micro releases in the 2.58.x series, support being built
with Meson or autotools. See:
https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-devel-list/2018-June/msg00012.html
* Fix cancellation of g_subprocess_communicate_async() calls. See !266.
* Drop support for the __int64 type, which further breaks compilation on old
MSVC versions (before VS2013). See #1313.
* Expose GSettings schema directory in gio-2.0.pc as `schemasdir`. See !274.
* Support v3 of the xdg-desktop-portal network monitor API. See !265, !279.
* Fix G_MODULE_SUFFIX on macOS when GLib is built with Meson — it should be `so`
rather than `dylib`. Projects that use Meson and the `g_module_build_path()`
API such as glib-networking should pass `name_suffix:` to `shared_module()` to
ensure that plugins continue to be called libfoo.so on macOS. See !280.
Bugs fixed:
!280 meson: Always set G_MODULE_SUFFIX to `so` on macOS
!266 subprocess: Fix communicate_cancelled signature
!279 Revert "Add a gnet utility" (see !265)
!265 Network monitor again
!274 gio: Provide schemas directory information in pkg-config file
!239 gvariant: Fix more bounds checking in GVariant text format parser
!195 garray: add overflow checks before expanding array
#1497 g_strdup_printf warns on invalid format specifier with G_GUINT64_FORMAT on Win32
!270 autotools: remove support for the __int64 type. See #1313
!267 ci: Add an autotools job
