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
====

* Rework `glib-compile-resources` to output compiler-specific files to reduce
  compilation time; see the new `--compiler` option (work by Emmanuele Bassi) (#2492)

* Add a cross-platform API for aligned memory allocations (`g_aligned_alloc()`,
  `g_aligned_alloc0()` and `g_aligned_free()`) (work by Emmanuele Bassi) (#2574)

* Deprecate `force_posix_threads` configure option, since it was a workaround
  for static linking on Windows (#2592)

* Add `GBindingGroup` and `GSignalGroup` APIs (work by Christian Hergert and
  Garrett Regier) (!2235)

* Implement FD remapping support for `g_spawn_async_with_pipes_and_fds()` on
  Windows (work by Marc-André Lureau) (!2458)
