Release 1.4 (2009-02-16)
|
|
========================
|
|
* Add explicit padding in various protocol description.
|
|
* Associate fields with the enum which describes their allowed values.
|
|
|
|
Release 1.3 (2008-12-10)
|
|
========================
|
|
Explicit padding was added in various protocol description.
|
|
|
|
Protcol fixes:
|
|
* RandR
|
|
* X proto
|
|
* Change CARD8 to char when specs requires STRING8
|
|
|
|
Release 1.2 (2008-07-17)
|
|
========================
|
|
New extensions:
|
|
* XInput 1.4
|
|
* SELinux 1.0
|
|
|
|
Various fixes in protocol description:
|
|
* X proto
|
|
* X-Resource
|
|
* XVMC
|
|
* GLX
|
|
|
|
New Python parser language-independent parts.
|
|
|
|
Release 1.1 (2007-11-04)
|
|
========================
|
|
|
|
Incompatible change to the XML schema: rather than special-casing the
|
|
treatment of protocol extension names, use the new extension-multiword
|
|
attribute. Normally, XCB prefixes C extension functions with
|
|
xcb_extname_. However, some of the existing extensions used multi-word
|
|
names, such as xcb_big_requests_ or xcb_xc_misc_. Those extensions now
|
|
use this attribute to match their existing defined API. This allows the
|
|
XCB code generator to avoid special-casing those extension names.
|
|
|
|
Protocol updates:
|
|
* Update DAMAGE to 1.1
|
|
* Update RandR to version 1.2
|
|
|
|
Bug fixes:
|
|
* fix XSync Initialize call
|
|
* Update autogen.sh to one that does objdir != srcdir.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Release 1.0 (2006-11-23)
|
|
========================
|
|
|
|
The "Thanksgiving" release: We feel thankful to have it released.
|
|
|
|
* Fix Bug #8990: randr type fixes
|
|
* Fixed screen parameter type in several GLX requests to use CARD32 instead
|
|
of the SCREEN structure.
|
|
* Corrected valueparam arguments to attribute lists in several requests and
|
|
a reply.
|
|
* Estethic change for attribute parameter name
|
|
* Remove support for the <localfield> tag: nothing needs it.
|
|
* Fix Bug #8973: In UngrabKey, the 'key' field should have type KEYCODE, not
|
|
the more general CARD8.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Release 1.0 RC3 (2006-11-02)
|
|
============================
|
|
|
|
* Add support for the Xinerama extension, version 1.1
|
|
* Protocol descriptions now document the major and minor version numbers
|
|
of the extension version they support, through major-version and
|
|
minor-version attributes on the xcb tag. XML Schema updated
|
|
accordingly.
|
|
* Minor source reorganization: Now that the extensions do not get
|
|
installed to an extensions/ subdirectory, move them out of the
|
|
extensions/ subdirectory in the source as well.
|
|
* Various protocol description fixes:
|
|
* Add REPEAT enumeration to Render extension to fix bug #8535
|
|
* Fix core xproto GrabMode enumeration (reported by Yang JianJun)
|
|
* Fix core xproto cap style enumeration (bug #8857).
|
|
|
|
|
|
Release 1.0 RC2 (2006-10-07)
|
|
============================
|
|
|
|
* Add <import>xproto</import> explicitly to extensions that use xproto;
|
|
this goes along with the change in the code generator for libxcb 1.0 RC2 to
|
|
stop implicitly importing xproto.
|
|
* Change "union" to "xidunion" for XID unions like DRAWABLE and FONTABLE,
|
|
so that the code generator can more easily declare these XID unions as
|
|
integer typedefs rather than unions.
|
|
* Replace structures attempting to provide C type safety with CARD32 typedefs
|
|
* render.xml no longer describes the CompositeGlyphs* requests as taking lists
|
|
of complicated unions of structures of lists: it says instead that they take
|
|
a LISTofBYTE. The caller is responsible for constructing an appropriate
|
|
sequence of glyph elements. Previously, the requests could not actually be
|
|
used because XCB did not correctly compute the length of the provided data.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Release 1.0 RC1 (2006-09-25)
|
|
============================
|
|
|
|
The Great XCB Renaming
|
|
----------------------
|
|
|
|
* Rename shape_op and shape_kind to drop the "shape_" prefix, since
|
|
otherwise these types end up as xcb_shape_shape_{op,kind}_t.
|
|
* Remove leading underscores from enums in the GLX protocol description,
|
|
previously needed to ensure a word separator, but now redundant.
|
|
* The XML-XCB protocol descriptions have moved to /usr/share/xcb, with
|
|
extension descriptions no longer relegated to an extensions/ subdirectory.
|
|
|
|
GIT Repository split
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
Previously, several XCB-related projects all existed under the umbrella
|
|
of a single monolithic GIT repository with per-project subdirectories.
|
|
We have split this repository into individual per-project repositories.
|
|
|
|
Josh Triplett and Jamey Sharp wrote a tool called git-split to
|
|
accomplish this repository split. git-split reconstructs the history of
|
|
a sub-project previously stored in a subdirectory of a larger
|
|
repository. It constructs new commit objects based on the existing tree
|
|
objects for the subtree in each commit, and discards commits which do
|
|
not affect the history of the sub-project, as well as merges made
|
|
unnecessary due to these discarded commits.
|
|
|
|
We would like to acknowledge the work of the gobby team in creating a
|
|
collaborative editor which greatly aided the development of git-split
|
|
(as well as these release notes).
