The macros and functions are inconsistently named, and are not tied to
the "template" concept - to the point that it seems plausible to use
them without setting the template.
The new naming scheme is as follows:
gtk_widget_class_bind_template_child_full
gtk_widget_class_bind_template_callback_full
With the convenience macros:
gtk_widget_class_bind_template_child
gtk_widget_class_bind_template_child_internal
gtk_widget_class_bind_template_callback

Add a new example to the getting started part of the docs. The focus
of this example is on 'new stuff': GtkApplication, templates, settings,
gmenu, gaction, GtkStack, GtkHeaderBar, GtkSearchBar, GtkRevealer,
GtkListBox, GtkMenuButton, etc.
It is being developed in several steps. Each step is put in a separate
directory below examples/: application1, ..., application8. This is a
little repetitive, but lets us use the code of all examples in the
documentation.
We should mention that newly written code should not have the private
data pointer in the instance structure, and that private data should be
added using the new GObject macros.

Currently you can only set the current filename, but not
get it. It's useful to be able to get it in save
dialogs, where the user has typed the desired filename
and you are not in a real directory (recent used, for
example).

I notice that a reference to GtkStrengthBar had been left in this file
when it was renamed to GtkLevelBar. On closer inspection, it looks like
it's been unused for 13 years. To quote docs/reference/ChangeLog:

> [...] Removed objects_grouped.sgml from gtk-docs.sgml for now, it

Rename our internal GActionMuxer, GActionObserver and GActionObservable
classes and interfaces to have names in our own namespace.
These classes were originally intended for GIO but turned out to be too
special-purpose to be useful there, so we never made them public API but
have just been copying them around (without bothering to properly rename
them). Now that other people will be copying them out of Gtk, it's even
more important to prevent this namespace abuse from spreading further.
Newer versions of GCC/binutils must have the source file come before the
preprocessor and linker flags on the compiler command line, and this is
also compatible with previous versions.

This commit implements the needed machinery for GtkWidget
to build it's composite content from GtkBuilder XML and
adds the following API:
o gtk_widget_init_template()
An api to be called in instance initializers of any
GtkWidget subclass that uses template XML to build it's components.
o gtk_widget_class_set_template()
API to associate GtkBuilder XML to a given GtkWidget subclass
o gtk_widget_class_automate_child()
API to declare an object built by GtkBuilder to be associated
with an instance structure offset and automatically set.
o gtk_widget_get_automated_child()
API for bindings to fetch a child declared to be automated by
gtk_widget_class_automate_child(), for the case where bindings
do not generate GObjects under the hood and cannot use structure
offsets to resolve composite object pointers.
o gtk_widget_class_declare_callback[s]()
Declare static functions to be used in signal callbacks from
a given class's template XML
o gtk_widget_class_set_connect_func()
API for bindings to override the signal connection machinery
for a given GtkWidget derived class.
In preperation for composite objects, for better encapsulation
the following APIs are added to allow handling of signals declared
in the XML with callbacks declared statically.
o gtk_builder_add_callback_symbol[s]()
Adds a symbol to the internal symbol hash
o gtk_builder_lookup_symbol()
Looks up a symbol, exposed in case added symbols are used
in conjunction with gtk_builder_connect_signals_full()
The default implementation of gtk_builder_connect_signals() now
does not have a strong requirement on GModule (or a strong requirement
on symbols being declared in the global namespace). Instead GModule
is used as a fallback in the case that symbols are not declared
explicitly.
It's more logical to have the GtkTextAttributes and GtkTextAppearance
structs together. And it creates a separation between gtk_text_tag and
gtk_text_attributes functions.

Themes may want to render handles differently depending on whether
the widget is in selection mode (2 handles enclosing a selection) or
cursor mode (one handle pointing out the insertion cursor).
Make the main (and only) entry-point to gtkmodelmenu.c the now-public
gtk_menu_shell_bind_model().
Move the convenience constructors (gtk_menu_new_from_model() and
gtk_menu_bar_new_from_model()) to their proper files.
Remove the private header file.
Simplify the code a bit by making the initial populate part of the
bind() call.

This is a helper object to allow text widgets to implement
text selection on touch devices. It allows for both cursor
placement and text selection, displaying draggable handles
on/around the cursor and selection bound positions.
Currently, this is private to GTK+, and only available to
GtkEntry and GtkTextView.
It's too close to the release so we'll keep _set_menu() around, but
deprecate it, pointing to the new API. It will be removed (and the name
reused) before the 3.6.0 release.

This allows adding a GActionGroup with a given name at an arbitrary
point in the widget tree.
This patch also adds an internal _get_action_muxer() API. Calling this
will create a GActionMuxer associated with the widget. The parent of
the muxer will be the muxer of the widget's conceptual parent. For
non-menus, that is the normal parent. For menus, it is the attach
widget.
In this way, we end up with a hierarchy of GActionMuxer that largely
reflects the hierarchy of GtkWidget, but only in places that the action
context has been requested. These muxers are the ones on which the
inserted actions groups are installed.
A following patch will add a user of this API.
Use $(AM_V_GEN) for generating man pages, and set some parameters
for the XSL stylesheets. Among other things, don't generate AUTHORS
and COPYRIGHT sections.
This program launches an application specified by its desktop name
optinally taking list of URIs which are passed as arguments.

This gets the current cell area of a particular item. Its similar
to gtk_tree_view_get_cell_area().
The code is extracted from gtk_icon_view_set_tooltip_cell which now
just calls the old code.

As used in Totem and gnome-contacts. The widget
takes either a GtkMenu or a GMenuModel to construct
its menu, and can be given a parent widget to use to
position the drop-down (as used in GtkMenuToolButton).

See inline comments for what it does. Its main use is figuring out if
something has been caused by GTK's caching of CSS properties or if it's
a different problem.
GtkPlug directly handles X KeyPress/Release events, instead of using
translation in GDK (which expects XI2 events for XI2). When this
was done, the handling of the group was stubbed out and never replaced.
Export gdk_keymap_x11_group_for_state() and gdk_keymap_x11_is_modifier()
so we can fill out the fields correctly.

Kinetic scrolling is only done on touch devices, since it is
sort of meaningless on pointer devices, besides it implies
a different input event handling on child widgets that is
unnecessary there.
If the scrolling doesn't start after a long press, the scrolling is
cancelled and events are handled by child widgets normally.
When clicked again close to the previous button press location
(assuming it had ~0 movement), the scrolled window will allow
the child to handle the events immediately.
This is so the user doesn't have to wait to the press-and-hold
timeout in order to operate on the scrolledwindow child.
The innermost scrolled window always gets to capture the events, all
scrolled windows above it just let the event go through. Ideally
reaching a limit on the innermost scrolled window would propagate
the dragging up the hierarchy in order to keep following the touch
coords, although that'd involve rather evil hacks just to cater
for broken UIs.
This commit introduces GDK_TOUCH_BEGIN/UPDATE/END/CANCEL
and a separate GdkEventTouch struct that they use. This
is closer to the touch event API of other platforms and
matches the xi2 events closely, too.
This seems a bit "too powerful" and unlikely to be used by most
applications. Remove it from now, until someone comes up with a strong
desire for it.

This commit adds API that allows to add new named sections

gtk_window_get/set_attached_to() is a new API that allows for windows to
be attached to a GtkWidget.
The attachment is a logical binding between the toplevel window and the
widget that generated it; this kind of information is currently used to
propagate style information from the widget to the window, but is also
useful e.g. for accessibility.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=666103
We don't expose ::quit-requested as API anymore. Instead, we expect
users to register inhibitors when needed. Without quit-requested,
there is no need for ::quit-cancelled and gtk_application_quit_response
anymore.
We still emit ::quit when the application is about to quit.
We add the app-menu and menubar public APIs to GtkApplication while
leaving the implementation in GApplication.
The actual implementation will be moved soon.
This feels premature; we do have the fallback situation covered
adaequately with the menubar, and people can do their own creative
solutions with gtk_application_window_get_menu(), so we don't have
to offer a widget for this right now.
The function returns the part of a monitors area that should be
used for positioning popups, menus, etc. The only non-trivial
implementation atm is in the X backend, all the other backends
just return the full monitor area. The X implementation is
currently suboptimal, since it requires roundtrips to collect
the necessary information. It should be changed to monitor
the properties for changes, when XFixes allows to monitor
individual properties.

For maximized windows, titlebars cannot be used to reposition or
scale the window, so if an application does not use it to convey
useful information (other than the application name), the screen
space occupied by titlebars could be put to better use.
Add a new window property which requests from the window manager
to hide titlebars when windows are maximized to account for this.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=665616
If the scale has an origin (it will have one by default), GtkRange will
render the two sides before/after the current value with different style
classes, making it possible for themes to use different colors and
properties for the two areas.
This was possible in GTK 2 with style details, but got lost during the
road to 3.0.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=665140
The new function provides an API that takes the PangoLayout and index
as input params, this way it handles strong and weak cursors internally
factoring out all code duplicated in the widgets that need to render
cursors.

GtkFontButton already has a property named "font-name" which may
conflict / be an ABI break when moving GtkFontButton to implement
GtkFontChooser. Also, this is more in line with how other parts in
gtk (e.g. GtkCellRendererText) call a font string property.
Make the GtkFontChooser API similar to the Gtk{File,Recent,App}Chooser
APIs by introducing GtkFontChooser as an interface, that has a default
implementation in GtkFontChooserWidget.
