glib 2.63.4



About GLib
==========

GLib is the low-level core library that forms the basis for projects
such as GTK+ and GNOME. It provides data structure handling for C,
portability wrappers, and interfaces for such runtime functionality as
an event loop, threads, dynamic loading, and an object system.

News
====

* Fix various race conditions on signal emission in GDBus (#604, #978, #1232)

* Change thread pools so that thread attributes (in particular, priority) are
  inherited from the thread which created the `GThreadPool` initially, rather
  than from the thread which is pushing a new job into the pool (#1834, #2007)

* Expand support for running Windows apps with
  `g_app_info_launch_default_for_uri()` using rundll32 on Windows (#1932)

* Support multiple directories in `GSETTINGS_SCHEMA_DIR` environment variable (#1998)

* Support full Julian day range in `TZ` environment variable (#1999)

* Apply recursion depth limits to variants in D-Bus messages (!1201)

* Support adding call flags and timeouts to method calls generated by
  `gdbus-codegen` through the new `--glib-min-version` option (!1286)

* Fully deprecate TLS rehandshakes; they are now ignored due to TLS protocol
  changes (!1305)
