Glib 1.035 (unstable)



Glib provides Perl access to the GLib and GObject libraries. GLib is a portability and utility library; GObject provides a generic type system with inheritance and a powerful signal system. Together these libraries are used as the foundation for many of the libraries that make up the Gnome environment, and are used in many unrelated projects.

!!NOTE!! Gtk2-Perl is approaching an API freeze on 16 Feb 04. If you have something to say about the Gtk2 API, NOW IS THE TIME.
See the Gnome Platform Bindings Release Set Rules for more info:
http://developer.gnome.org/dotplan/bindings/rules.html

As always, the code is available from our sourceforge project page:
https://sourceforge.net/project/ showfiles.php?group_id=64773&package_id=91217&release_id=216771

...and from anonymous cvs, tagged rel-1-03-5 in the directory /gtk2-perl-xs/Glib .

  which is a new feature in gtk+ 2.4.  [Ross]
