ANNOUNCE: libsigc++ 2.3.2



*** libsigc++

libsigc++ implements a typesafe callback system for standard C++. It allows you to define signals and to connect those signals to any callback function, either global or a member function, regardless of whether it is static or virtual.

libsigc++ is used by gtkmm to wrap the GTK+ signal system. It does not depend on GTK+ or gtkmm.

*** Changes

2.3.2 (unstable):

Note: The implementation of bug #724496 breaks API for some users,
but it does not break ABI.
Only users who have added their own visit_each() overloads are affected by
the API break. Their programs will still compile, but there will be run-time
errors, if they rely on auto-disconnection of slots.
Updated instructions for users who implement their own adaptors are found
in the description of sigc::adapts<>.

* Replace visit_each() overloads by struct visitor<>.
  Add the test_visit_each test case.
  (Ryan Beasley, Kjell Ahlstedt) Bug #724496
* signal_impl::notify(): Don't delete signal_impl during erase().
  (Kjell Ahlstedt) Bug #564005 (Alexander Shaduri)
* Fix 'make check' with clang++ 3.4 and --enable-warnings=fatal
  (Kjell Ahlstedt) Bug #724496 (Ryan Beasley)
* Fix test_cpp11_lambda for gcc 4.8
  (Kjell Ahlstedt)
* Speed up disconnection of slots.
  (Kjell Ahlstedt) Bug #167714 (Neal E. Coombes)

  (Kjell Ahlstedt) Bug #699168 (John Ralls)
* Add the track_obj() adaptor and test_track_obj test case.
  Deprecate libsigc++ lambdas, sigc::group() and sigc::var().
  Use C++11 lambda expressions instead.
  (Kjell Ahlstedt) Bug #672555
* Documentation:
  - Emphasize that signals are reference counted.
    (Kjell Ahlstedt) Bug #611941 (Jonathon Jongsma)
  - Mention std::function<> and std::bind() where appropriate.
    (Kjell Ahlstedt, Chris Vine)

    functions from the reference documentation.

    (Ryan Beasley) Bug #733752
