Overview of changes in GLib 2.47.3
==================================
The inline cleanup in the last release accidentally removed three
symbols from libglib-2.0.so. It is unlikely that this will have caused
any problems because these symbols were only backup symbols for
definitions exported as inlines in the header files, but ABI is ABI.
This release corrects only this problem.
Overview of changes in GLib 2.47.2
==================================
* We have formalised the assumption that all compilers that are
interested in support 'static inline' and simplified the macros around
this considerably. Please watch for and report unintentional fallout.
* New API: hardware-assisted helpers for overflow-checked integer math.
* other fixes
Bugs fixed:
696324 gtester-report doesn't work with Python 3.x

Overview of changes in GLib 2.45.1
==================================
* The GSettings schema compiler, glib-compile-schemas has been changed
to reject schema xml that has duplicate <summary> or <description>
elements. Such elements typically occur when translations are merged
into the schema, with xml:lang attributes. This is not the correct
way to translate schemas. Instead keep the translations in the .mo
file and set the gettext-domain attribute on the <schemalist> element.
* The file monitoring infrastructure has been rewritten, and all backends
have seen major improvements.
The inotify backend is reporting events with less delay (no event will
be delayed more than 10ms) and wakeups due to file monitoring have been
significantly reduced. A CHANGES_DONE event will also be sent when new
files appear.
The poll implementation is now using the thread default main context.
The fam implmentation is now running in the worker thread.
The fen implementation has been removed, since it was unmaintained.
* The GSettings schema compiler, glib-compile-schemas, is more strict
about rejecting schemas with xml:lang style merged translations.
Schema translations should be done by specifying the gettext domain
in the xml, and keeping the translations in gettext. To avoid breaking
already-installed schemas, this change is only taking effect when
you use the --strict option.
* The hardcoded 10-thread limit of GTask's thread pool has been removed,
since it was prone to causing deadlocks. The thread pool is now allowed
to grow dynamically and will shrink back over time.
* GSimpleAsyncResult has been deprecated in favor of GTask.
* The algorithm used by GAppInfo to find default handlers for mime types
has been tweaked to prefer apps that handle the specific subtype over
default handlers for a generic supertype.
* Bug fixes:

Overview of changes in GLib 2.43.92
===================================
GLib is now considered frozen. We do not expect any major changes
before the release of 2.44.0.
* GUnixMountMonitor now properly supports multiple main contexts
* many documentation improvements and cleanups. We are now
approaching a point where the documentation is 100% complete and the
xml will build without warnings. This will probably be enabled by
default in the next cycle.
* new support for HTTP proxies in GIO
* new GTask:completed property
* use "private" futexes in order to further improve the performance of
the contended case of GMutex and g_bit_lock()
Bugs fixed:
614684 Make various parts of GObject const-correct
730352 Use inet_pton(), if_nametoindex() and if_indextoname() for newer versions of Windows
733876 Proxy protocol 'http' is not supported.

Overview of changes in GLib 2.43.91
===================================
We have now added 'g_autofree' as a libgsystem-style autocleanup macro
that calls g_free() on the content of a local variable when it leaves
scope (working only on GCC and clang).
GApplication now has an "is-busy" property, allowing one to query the
effective busy state.
There have been various other bugfixes and cleanups.
Bugs fixed:
661554 GIO's use of GError is wrong
744263 Fix format specifier for __LINE__ in G_OBJECT_WARN_INVALID_PSPEC

of a boolean property on another object

Overview of changes in GLib 2.43.4
==================================
* GType now has type declaration macros G_DECLARE_DERIVABLE_TYPE,
G_DECLARE_FINAL_TYPE and G_DECLARE_INTERFACE, which significantly reduce
the boilerplate needed for GObject types and interfaces.
* g_autoptr and g_auto are macros for declaring variables with automatic
cleanup. They only work with gcc and clang.
* GListModel is a new interface that represents a dynamic list of GObjects.

Overview of changes in GLib 2.41.0
===================================
* Many bugfixes found by static analysis, including potential fd leaks
and NULL pointer dereferences.
* Increased use of (nullable) attribute on out values and return types
now that it is supported (mostly from porting Vala metadata).
* use XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP for OnlyShowIn/NotShowIn handling of desktop
files, deprecating g_desktop_app_info_set_desktop_env()
* add support for g_desktop_app_info_get_implementations() to find
desktop files that have an Implements= line for a given interface
* GHmac has gained SHA-512 support
* support the new mimeapps specification (most notably, moving the
assoications/defaults configuration to ~/.config/mimeapps.list).
* libgobject is now linked -Wl,-z,nodelete when possible to avoid errors
when gobject is used from a module for a program that does not itself
use gobject and that module is unloaded/reloaded
* ... and many other bug fixes.
