Glib 1.210 (unstable) available



Overview of changes in Glib 1.210
=================================

* Add constants Glib::SOURCE_CONTINUE and SOURCE_REMOVE for use in source-type
  callbacks.
* Add Glib::Child::watch_add.
* Provide gperl_register_boxed_alias, gperl_register_fundamental_alias, and
  gperl_register_object_alias to register aliases for other registered types.
* Improve the error message that occurs when an unknown interface is
  encountered while registering a new type.

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

  http://downloads.sourceforge.net/gtk2-perl/Glib-1.210.tar.gz

...and via anonymous SVN:

  svn co svn://svn.gnome.org/svn/perl-Glib/tags/rel-1-21-0 perl-Glib

This release works with all stable releases of glib-2.x.

In order to build Glib from source, you must have glib-2.x and
its development headers and utilities installed, as well as the
pkg-config utility.   In addition, the following Perl modules are
needed at build time (but not at runtime):

   ExtUtils::Depends >= 0.300
   ExtUtils::PkgConfig >= 1.000

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.
