glib-2.3.6.tar.gz md5sum: 7834348c09a74c5649d76222e7f0ab62

Changes since 2.3.5 consist mostly of bug fixes.

Notes:

• Bugs should be reported to http://bugzilla.gnome.org.

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.

More information about GLib is available at:

http://www.gtk.org/

An installation guide for the GTK+ libraries, including GLib, can be found at:

http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/gtk/gtk-building.html

Changes since Pango 1.3.5 are a couple of minor bug fixes and build fixes for Win32.

Notes:

• This is unstable development release. While it has had fairly extensive testing, there are likely bugs remaining to be found. This release should not be used in production.

• Bugs should be reported to http://bugzilla.gnome.org.

About Pango

Pango is a library for layout and rendering of text, with an emphasis on internationalization. Pango can be used anywhere that text layout is needed, though most usage so far as been in the context of the GTK+ widget toolkit. Pango forms the core of text and font handling for GTK+ 2.

Pango is designed to be modular; the core Pango layout can be used with four different font backends:

• Core X windowing system fonts
• Client-side fonts on X using the Xft2 library
• Direct rendering of scalable fonts using the FreeType library
• Native fonts on Microsoft platforms

Dynamically loaded modules then handle text layout for particular combinations of script and font backend. Pango-1.2 ships with a wide selection of modules, including modules for Hebrew, Arabic, Hangul, Thai, and a number of Indic scripts. Virtually all of the world's major scripts are supported.

As well as the low level layout rendering routines, Pango includes PangoLayout, a high level driver for laying out entire blocks of text, and routines to assist in editing internationalized text.

More information about Pango is available from http://www.pango.org/.

Pango depends on version 2.2.0 or newer of the GLib library; more information about GLib can be found at http://www.gtk.org/.

Overview of changes between 1.3.5 and 1.3.6

• Improve handling of some Kannada vowels [Kailash C. Chowksey]
• Fix problem with excess symbol exports on Linux [James Henstridge]
• Win32 build fixes [Hans Breuer, John Ehresman, Tor Lillqvist, Cedric Gustin, J. Ali Harlow]

What is GTK+

GTK+ is a multi-platform toolkit for creating graphical user interfaces. Offering a complete set of widgets, GTK+ is suitable for projects ranging from small one-off tools to complete application suites.

GTK+ has been designed from the ground up to support a range of languages, not only C/C++. Using GTK+ from languages such as Perl and Python (especially in combination with the Glade GUI builder) provides an effective method of rapid application development.

GTK+ is free software and part of the GNU Project. However, the licensing terms for GTK+, the GNU LGPL, allow it to be used by all pdevelopers, including those developing proprietary software, without any license fees or royalties.

Where to get more information about GTK+

Information about GTK+ including links to documentation can be found at:

http://www.gtk.org/

An installation guide for GTK+-2.2 is found at:
