Gtk2 1.190 (unstable) available



Overview of changes in Gtk2 1.190
=================================

* Add exportable constants: GTK_PRIORITY_RESIZE, GDK_PRIORITY_EVENTS,
  GDK_PRIORITY_REDRAW, and GDK_CURRENT_TIME.
* Automatically handle releasing of GCs returned by Gtk2::GC->get.
* Provide Gtk2::Gdk::Event::GrabBroken::implicit and grab_window accessors.
* Fix the marshalling of modify callbacks in Gtk2::TreeModelFilter.
  Technically, this is an API change since an input argument turned into a
  return value.  The previous version was not usable, however, so nothing
  should be affected by this.  If this change does break your code,
please let
  us know.
* Improve the documentation in a few places.
* Fix some test failures.

This is an unstable development release of Gtk2, containing new
features and other cool stuff that have been added since the 1.18x
stable series.  Report any bugs to gtk-perl-list AT gnome DOT org as
soon as possible.  Please use the stable 1.16x series for important
work.

The source code is available from the gtk2-perl project page on
sourceforge:

http://downloads.sourceforge.net/gtk2-perl/Gtk2-1.190.tar.gz

...and from anonymous cvs, tagged "rel-1-19-0" in the directory
/gtk2-perl-xs/Gtk2.

This module requires these other modules and libraries:

   perl >= 5.8.0
   Glib >= 1.190 (perl module)
   GTK+ > 2.x (C library and prerequisites)

If GTK+ is as new or newer as 2.8, the Cairo module is also required:

  Cairo >= 1.00 (Perl module)

In order to build it from source, you'll also need

   ExtUtils::Depends >= 0.300
   ExtUtils::PkgConfig >= 1.030
   development headers for gtk+ and friends

Gtk2 is a Perl extension providing Perl bindings to the 2.x series of
the Gtk+ graphical user interface library.  This module allows you to
write graphical user interfaces in a perlish and object-oriented way,
freeing you from the casting and memory management in C, yet remaining
very close in spirit to original API.  Find out more about Gtk+ at
<http://www.gtk.org>, and about Gtk2-Perl at
<http://gtk2-perl.sourceforge.net/>.
