General Information
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
This is GTK+ version @GTK_VERSION@. 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 projects to
|
|
complete application suites.
|
|
|
|
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
|
|
developers, including those developing proprietary software, without any
|
|
license fees or royalties.

Installation

============
|
|
|
|
See the file 'INSTALL'
|
|
|

How to report bugs
|
|
==================
|
|
|
|
Bugs should be reported to the GNOME bug tracking system.
|
|
(http://bugzilla.gnome.org, product glib.) You will need
|
|
to create an account for yourself.
|
|
|
|
In the bug report please include:
|
|
|
|
* Information about your system. For instance:
|
|
|
|
- What operating system and version
|
|
- For Linux, what version of the C library
|
|
|
|
And anything else you think is relevant.
|
|
|
|
* How to reproduce the bug.
|
|
|
|
If you can reproduce it with one of the test programs that are built
|
|
in the tests/ subdirectory, that will be most convenient. Otherwise,
|
|
please include a short test program that exhibits the behavior.
|
|
As a last resort, you can also provide a pointer to a larger piece
|
|
of software that can be downloaded.
|
|
|
|
* If the bug was a crash, the exact text that was printed out
|
|
when the crash occured.
|
|
|
|
* Further information such as stack traces may be useful, but
|
|
is not necessary.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Patches
|
|
=======
|
|
|
|
Patches should also be submitted to bugzilla.gnome.org. If the
|
|
patch fixes an existing bug, add the patch as an attachment
|
|
to that bug report.
|
|
|
|
Otherwise, enter a new bug report that describes the patch,
|
|
and attach the patch to that bug report.
|
|
|
|
Patches should be in unified diff form. (The -up option to GNU diff.)

Release notes for 3.4
|
|
=====================
|
|
|
|
* Scroll events have been separated from button events, and smooth
|
|
scrolling has been added with a separate event mask. Widgets now
|
|
need to have either GDK_SCROLL_MASK or GDK_SMOOTH_SCROLL_MASK in
|
|
their event mask to receive scroll events.
|
|
|
|
* GTK+ now uses <Primary> instead of <Control> in keyboard accelerators,
|
|
for improved cross-platform handling. This should not affect
|
|
applications, unless they parse or create these accelerator
|
|
manually.
|
|
|
|
* The tacit assumption that the Alt key corresponds to the MOD1
|
|
modifier under X11 is now a hard requirement.
|
|
|
|
* The beagle search backend for the file chooser has been dropped.
|
|
Tracker is the only supported search backend on Linux now.
|
|
|
|
* GtkNotebook has been changed to destroy its action widgets when
|
|
it gets destroyed itself. If your application is using action
|
|
widgets in notebooks, you may have to adjust your code to take
|
|
this into account.
|
|
|
|
* GtkApplication no longer uses the gtk mainloop wrappers, so
|
|
it is no longer possible to use gtk_main_quit() to stop it.
|
|
|
|
* The -uninstalled variants of the pkg-config files have been dropped.
|
|
|
|
* Excessive dependencies have been culled from Requires: lines
|
|
in .pc files. Dependent modules may have to declare dependencies
|
|
that there were getting 'for free' in the past.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Release notes for 3.2
|
|
=====================
|
|
|
|
* The accessible implementations for GTK+ widgets have been integrated
|
|
into libgtk itself, and the gail module does not exist anymore. This
|
|
change should not affect applications very much.
|
|
|
|
Release notes for 3.0
|
|
=====================
|
|
|
|
* GTK+ 3 is a major new version of GTK+, which is parallel installable
|
|
with GTK+ 2.x. For information about porting applications from GTK+ 2.x
|
|
to GTK+ 3, see the file:
|
|
|
|
docs/reference/gtk/html/migrating.html
|
|
|
|
Or online at:
|
|
|
|
http://library.gnome.org/devel/gtk/3.0/migrating.html
|
|
|
|
* Note that the library sonames in this release have been changed from
|
|
libgtk-3.0 and libgdk-3.0 to libgtk-3 and libgdk-3, to prevent the
|
|
library versions from going backwards, compared to the 2.90/91/99
|
|
releases. Applications will have to be recompiled.
