Overview of Changes from GLib 2.12.6 to GLib 2.12.7
===================================================
* GKeyFile
- The stricter syntax checks introduced in 2.12.5 have
been reduced to warnings for the 2.12 series
* GSlice
- The slice allocator has gained address validation that
can be activated with the environment variable
G_SLICE=debug-blocks
- The allocator emits a warning if it detects too late
thread initialization

NEWS: gtk+-2.10.7
========================================
Overview of Changes from GTK+ 2.10.6 to 2.10.7
==============================================
* GtkNotebook
- Tab reordering is a less intrusive
- Rendering fixes on win32
* GtkTreeView
- Column resizing works correctly in right-to-left languages
- Many scrolling bugs have been fixed
* GtkTextView:
- Improved scrolling during DND.
* GtkRecentManager is more robust against bad URIs
* Print support:
- The cups backend works with 'BrowseShortNames Off'
in the cups configuration
- Multi-valued options are properly passed to cups
- Fix build with cups 1.3
- A few IPP compliance issues have been fixed
- Make the lpr backend work on BSD
* Input methods:
- GtkEntryCompletion works with input methods
- The Thai input method has been replace by a functional
Thai and Lao input method based on libthai
* Accessibility support:
- GtkMessageDialog sets accessible name role explicitly
* Theme support:
- The semantics of the gtk-color-scheme setting has been
slightly changed. Values from rc files are still merged
together, but the X setting just overrides the prior table.
* GdkPixbuf:
- gdk_pixbuf_loader_write() now closes the loader when
returning FALSE, as documented
- The BMP loader supports more BMP variants, including
transparency and 10-bit channels.
* Bugs fixed:

NEWS: pango-1.15.3
========================================
Overview of changes between 1.15.2 and 1.15.3
==============================================
- Fix Hangul crasher and other Hangul bugs introduced in 1.15.2
- Spell-checked docs
- Build fixes
- Don't introduce bitfields in public structs. This changes some public API
that was broken in the 1.15 series. The new struct is backward compatible
with the older Pango series, but not with earlier 1.15.x devel releases.
- New Public API:
* PangoAnalysis.flags and PANGO_ANALYSIS_FLAGS_CENTERED_BASELINE. These are
mostly only useful for the vertical text support in Pango, but language
bindings probably want to update their bindings for PangoAnalysis to
include these.
* New PangoMatrix methods:
pango_matrix_transform_distance()
pango_matrix_transform_point()
pango_matrix_transform_rectangle()
pango_matrix_transform_pixel_rectangle()
The transform_rectangle methods are particularly useful when an
app/toolkit wants to know the extents of a rotated layout in device
coordinates. It will be used by Gtk+ for example, and is used by the
pango-view tool too. The _pixel_ variant takes a PangoRectangle in device
units instead of Pango units.
* Unit conversion helpers:
pango_units_from_double()
pango_units_to_double()
pango_extents_to_pixels()
The first two just convert between Pango units (fixed precision) and
double floating-point numbers. The current implementations are as simple
as "(int)floor (d * PANGO_SCALE + 0.5)" and "(double)i / PANGO_SCALE", but
the idea is to have optimized versions of these that do not use the FPU in
the future. That will be appreciated by embedded devices without FPU
units. Since the functionality can be generally useful, the API is made
public.
The pango_extents_to_pixels() function in conjunction with
pango_matrix_transform_rectangle() makes it possible to convert extents to
device space and round then, instead of having to transform rounded
user-space extents.
- Bugs fixed in this release:
Bug 351496 – PangoAnalysis::gravity breaks binary compatibility
Bug 388702 – Crash when there's no Hangul glyph in the font.
Bug 384543 – FcFontMatch misuse
Bug 392789 – vpath build fails in basic module
Patch from J. Ali Harlow
Bug 390877 – Don't feed pango-features.h to glib-mkenums
Patch from Yevgen Muntyan
Overview of changes between 1.15.1 and 1.15.2
==============================================
* Engines:
- Improved Hangul shaper engine
- Improved Indic shaper and language engines
- Require libthai >= 0.1.7 for the Thai language engine
* Optimizations:
- Avoid some floating-point operations. Should cut the number of float
ops per expose event in pangocairo to a half.
- Cache ink and logical extents for PangoLayout
* New Public API:
- New, generated, public header file pango-features.h. Included by
pango.h. Currently contains the version information. In the future,
can be expanded to define which backends have been enabled, etc.
- Public macros and functions for compile- and run-time version checking:
PANGO_VERSION_ENCODE()
PANGO_VERSION_MAJOR
PANGO_VERSION_MINOR
PANGO_VERSION_MICRO
PANGO_VERSION
PANGO_VERSION_STRING
PANGO_VERSION_CHECK()
pango_version()
pango_version_string()
pango_version_check()
The scheme chosen here is a mixture of approaches taken by glib and cairo.
The advantage over the glib model is that there are no public variables,
but it still gives access to a string and numerical representation of the
version number at compile- and run-time.
The macros enable conditional compilation of code depending on newer Pango
APIs, while the runtime functions allow refusing to run against old
versions of the library.
- New, readonly, version of methods that give read/write access to the
internals of PangoLayout:
pango_layout_get_line_readonly()
pango_layout_get_lines_readonly()
pango_layout_iter_get_line_readonly()
pango_layout_iter_get_run_readonly()
These should be used when you do not intend to modify the run/line,
which is most of the time the case. The only exception known to me
is Firefox that adjusts glyph widths to do justification. Most other
uses that do not write to the returned structs (or structs accessible from
them) should be ported to the new readonly API to benefit from major
optimizations (in this case, line extents caching). The list includes,
but is not limited to, Gtk+, SWT, ClassPath, gnome-applets, libgnomeprint,
xmlroff, GtkMathView, Conglomerate, Dia, Anjuta, wxWindows, The Gimp,
and various other applications/libraries:
http://www.google.com/codesearch?hl=en&q=+pango_layout_(iter_)%3Fget_(lines%3F%7Crun)%5B%5E_%5D&start=50&sa=N
Worth noting here is that, many uses of pango_layout_get_lines() can be
replaced by a pango_layout_get_iter() that works both more elegantly and
more efficiently. The versioning macros introduced in this release can be
used to make code use these new symbols without breaking compilation
against older Pango (though, such code compiled with the new Pango cannot
be run against an older Pango).
- pango_language_get_default(): Note that, this does not make Pango
fallback to the default language automatically (yet), but the user can
use this function to set the default language of the locale on a context:
pango_context_set_language (context, pango_language_get_default());
This essentially deprecates gtk_get_default_language(). The pango-view
tool has been updated to use this feature, so it now respects $LANG when
choosing fonts.
- pango_color_to_string().
* Bugs fixed in this release:
Bug 326099 – Setting width, indentation and ellipsizing doesn't work
as I would expect
Bug 385478 – Fix tests on OPD platform
