Important notice: ================= WebKitGTK+ 1.1.15 is our first semi-stable release of the 1.1.x series, and will be supported until the next stable release is out. We are labeling it "semi-stable" because at this point in time the WebKitGTK+ team does not feel it should commit to supporting the current APIs long-term, so as before all APIs introduced since 1.1.0 are to be considered only "slushy" and potentially subject to changes. 6 months from now, in time for GNOME 2.30/3.0, we'll release 1.2.0, with all its APIs declared stable and fully supported for a longer period of time. You can expect 1.1.15.x point releases during these 6 months with additional stability improvements and, if needed, security fixes. Overview of changes from WebKitGTK 1.1.14 to 1.1.15: ==================================================== - New API to get the subresources from a WebKitWebDataSource. This provides a way of accessing all the resources that compose the view to which the data source is attached. - A new function, webkit_web_view_get_hit_test_result, which allows to do a 'hit test' on the coordinates specified by a mouse event. A hit test provides context information about that point in the document, like whether it's an image, a link, an input box, etc. - Our DumpRenderTree implementation now supports eventSender, which allows us to run many more LayoutTests and make WebKitGTK+ more stable and feature-complete. - JSNES runs 6x faster: http://trac.webkit.org/changeset/48573 - The usual small improvements and bugfixes. What is WebKitGTK+: =================== WebKitGTK+ is the GTK+ port of the WebKit web browser engine. Offering WebKit's full functionality through a set of GObject-based APIs, it is suitable for projects in need of any kind of web functionality, from a bit of HTML/CSS in your UI to a full-fledged web browser.
