NEW in 0.7.0: ============== - Remove the ability to attach notifications to widgets or positions - Add a test for the persistence server capability - Port to use GBus instead of dbus-glib (Christian Persch) - Add a macro to get library version number - Remove GTK+ dependency from library - Port tests to GTK+ 3 NEW in 0.6.0: ============== The 0.5.1 release included changes that should not have been made on a stable branch. It should have been a 0.6 series release. So here it is. - Fixed #623096 Fix notify_get_server_info results NEW in 0.5.1: ============== - Remove explicit GTK+ 2.x linking, so that libnotify can link against both GTK+ 2.x or GTK+ 3.x NEW in 0.5.0: ============== - Support for version 1.1 of notification spec (Aurélien Gâteau, A. Walton) - Fixed #608089, Applications aborted at finalizing when the dbus session is being closed. (William Jon McCann) - Fixed #608082, Arabic text is misplaced in bubbles (RTL) (William Jon McCann) - Fixed #608086, wrong return value of notify_init() (William Jon McCann) - Fixed #612720, Does not compile with -DGSEAL_ENABLE (William Jon McCann) - Fixed #613999, Use g_strcompress in notify-send to parse \n from command line (William Jon McCann) - Fixed #610880, lazily initialize the daemon (Martin Pitt) version 0.4.5 (20-November-2008): * Added GObject property accessors for notification IDs. Patch by Lucas Rocha. * Added support for sending the closed reason in the "closed" signal handler. (Ticket #139) * Added support for sending the status icon XID to the notification daemon. This will allow better position tracking for context notifications. Patch by Colin Walters. * Fixed a breakage where we were including gtkversion.h directly. version 0.4.4 (27-February-2007): * Fixed a bug where a notification's ID could be reset when a different notification was closed. Patch by jylefort. (Bug #94) * Fixed a crash when the D-BUS proxy was not being freed on notify_uninit, which was problematic when used in a loadable module. (Bug #92) * Fixed a crash when a signal handler for the notification's closed signal caused the notification to be destroyed. (Bug #116) * Fixed memory leaks when creating notifications. (Bug #112) * Fixed potential memory leaks where the function passed to notify_notification_add_action to free the user data was not being called. (Bug #119) version 0.4.3 (8-October-2006): * Fixed the raw image data support to send the correct array type. Patch by mderezynski. (Bug #68) * Fixed configure.ac to check for the required version of glib (2.6). Patch by compnerd. (Bug #69) * Fixed invalid notification IDs when notify_notification_show() is called on a notification that had already been closed or had expired. Now, the notification will receive a new ID. Patch by Ed Catmur. (Bug #78) * Fixed the property change notification used when setting a GtkStatusIocn. It was emitting "attach-icon" but should have been emitted "status-icon". (Bug #81) * Fixed an invalid assertion in notify_notification_new_with_status_icon. Patch by lucasr. (Bug #85) * notify_uninit is no longer called automatically at exit. Applications and libraries should do this manually. Patch by berndth. (Bug #86) version 0.4.2 (17-June-2006): * Add G_BEGIN_DECLS and G_END_DECLS to notify.h, so that libnotify can be used in C++ applications properly. version 0.4.1 (17-June-2006): * Added support for attaching to a GtkStatusIcon. Patch by chpe. (Bug #60) * Added GObject properties to NotifyNotification. Patch by chpe. (Bug #60) * Added API documentation, accessible through devhelp. * Fixed up libnotify.pc to support dependencies correctly. (Bug #58) * Fixed notify_uninit() to properly set _initted to FALSE after being called. (Bug #56) version 0.4.0 (26-April-2006): * Patch by M.S. to switch notify-send to use GOption instead of popt, to add -v, --version, -h, and --hint options, and to rename -T, --type to -c, --category. This also fixes assertions when calling notify-send "". (Bug #41) * Fixed the short flag for --type to be -T in notify-send. (Bug #18) * Fixed the help in notify-send to indicate that --expire-timeout requires milliseconds, not seconds. (Bug #28) * Fixed some C99 usage. Patch by jensgr. (Bug #44) * Fixed notify-send on PPC. version 0.3.2 (23-January-2006): * Added back notify_get_server_info() and notify_get_server_caps(). * Fixed to work with D-BUS 0.36 and higher. However, it's best to note that due to bugs in versions of the D-BUS GLib bindings before 0.60, raw image data cannot be sent in notifications. A warning will be outputted to the console. * Added assertions to all of the API functions so that invalid data passed won't crash the calling program. * Added automatic notification removal for non-expiring notifications and notifications with actions when the calling application closes. * Fixed issues where the header files couldn't always be included in some programs. * Fixed a lot of compiler errors and warnings. * Fixed C99 usage. * Added the ability to set user data on action callbacks on a per-action basis. * Fixed notify-send to work without crashing. * Fixed the library to send messages appropriate to the D-BUS specification. * Cleaned up the API a lot. * Renamed NOTIFY_TIMEOUT_* to NOTIFY_EXPIRES_*. * Removed notify_notification_show_and_forget(). * Internal changes to remove the number of DBusGProxy connections, and make sure it's initialized before using any D-BUS GValue-related code. This fixes raw image sending. version 0.3.0: * First release of the new GObject based API and simpler wire protocol version 0.2.3: * Fix notify-send to work with icon parameters (bug #4308) version 0.2.2 (10-August-2005): * Fixed many run-time issues with PPC and AMD64 (Martin Pitt) version 0.2.1 (28-July-2005): * Fixed hint support for D-BUS 0.3x. version 0.2.0 (28-July-2005): * Initial public release.
