gtkmm 2.4.0
glibmm 2.4.0

gtkmm and glibmm 2.4:

gtkmm provides a C++ interface to GTK+. gtkmm 2.4 wraps additional API in GTK+ 2.4. gtkmm 2.4 installs in parallel with gtkmm 2.2, so you can have both installed at the same time. glibmm is now a separate module, for use in non-GUI software.

gtkmm stays in-sync with GTK+ by following the official GNOME Platform Bindings release schedule:
http://www.gnome.org/start/2.5/bindings/

Bindings for the rest of the GNOME Platform are also available, and are also API-stable.

http://www.gtkmm.org

Changes since gtkmm 2.2:

Highlights:

There are several new widgets/classes, with examples:

• New File Chooser: FileChooser, FileChooserWidget, FileChooserDialog, FileFilter classes.
• Action-based Toolbar/Menu API: UIManager, Action, ToggleAction, RadioAction classes.
• New Combo Box: ComboBox, ComboBoxEntry, ComboBoxText, CellLayout classes
• Auto-complete for Entry: EntryCompletion class.
• Other new classes: IconInfo, IconTheme TargetList.
• New ATK, Pango, and GDK API wrapped.
• Existing API improved:
  • Use of improved libsigc++ 2 API.
  • Removed useless key-binding signals.
  • Alignment: Added set/get_padding().
  • Entry: Added set/get_alignment().
  • Settings: New properties.
  • ListStore/TreeStores: Added insert_after(), which should be faster than insert().
  • TreeView: Added move_column_to_start()
  • TreeModel: Deriving is now easier, because the virtual functions now use C++ types.
  • TreeModel::iterator: Added operator--(), which is slow.
  • See the NEWS file for detailed API changes.
