Overview of changes in Glib 1.253 (unstable) =================================
* Add unit tests for the exportable constants * Export SOURCE_CONTINUE and SOURCE_REMOVE * Name an internal function appropriately * Create and register a GType for GConnectFlags The latest stable release of Glib is 1.242. There were fundamental changes made to Glib to prepare for the release of Perl version 5.16, hence the unstable release tag. These changes were first discussed by Torsten in this e-mail: http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-perl-list/2012-January/msg00001.html View the source in the Gtk2-Perl git repo at: http://git.gnome.org/browse/perl-Glib/tag/?id=rel-1-25-3 Or download the source release at: http://downloads.sourceforge.net/gtk2-perl/Glib-1.253_001.tar.gz 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. _______________________________________________ gtk-perl-list mailing list gtk-perl-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-perl-list
