[sigc] ANNOUNCE: libsigc++ 1.9.9



*** libsigc++ 2.0 (unstable)

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.

libsigc++ 2.0 uses modern C++ mechanisms to achieve a highly flexible,
yet typesafe callback system. It supports all features of libsigc++ 1.2
and improves upon it with a simpler and more powerful API.

This version of libsigc++ needs GNU g++ 3.2 or higher to compile.

*** Changes:

1.9.9:

This is a bug fix release: libsigc++-1.9.8 doesn't compile with
gcc-3.3.2!

* Add a constructor to sigc::connection that takes a slot_base&
  to support user defined slot lists like they are used in gtkmm.
* Fix compiler issues with gcc-3.3.2 (reported by Jeff Franks).

preliminary documentation for libsigc++ 2.0 is available here:

Cheers!
