Regressed in 1.2.0. + + Reported by Zack Weinberg. Tested by Uli Schlachter. + +libxkbcommon 1.3.0 - 2021-05-01 +================== + +- Change `xkbcli list` to output YAML, instead of the previous ad-hoc format. + + This allows to more easily process the information in a programmetic way, for + example + + xkbcli list | yq -r ".layouts[].layout" + + Contributed by Peter Hutterer. + +- Optimize a certain part of keymap compilation (atom interning). + +- Fix segmentation fault in case-insensitive `xkb_keysym_from_name` for certain + values like the empty string. + + Contributed by Isaac Freund. + +- Support building libxkbcommon as a meson subproject. + + Contributed by Adrian Perez de Castro. + +- Add `ftruncate` fallback for `posix_fallocate` in `xkbcli interactive-wayland` + for FreeBSD. + + Contributed by Evgeniy Khramtsov. + +- Properly export library symbols in MSVC. + + Contributed by Adrian Perez de Castro. + +libxkbcommon 1.2.1 - 2021-04-07 +================== + +- Fix `xkb_x11_keymap_new_from_device()` failing when the keymap contains key + types with missing level names, like the one used by the `numpad:mac` option + in xkeyboard-config. Regressed in 1.2.0. + +libxkbcommon 1.2.0 - 2021-04-03 +================== + +- `xkb_x11_keymap_new_from_device()` is much faster. It now performs only 2 + roundtrips to the X server, instead of dozens (in first-time calls). + + Contributed by Uli Schlachter. + +- Case-sensitive `xkb_keysym_from_name()` is much faster. + +- Keysym names of the form `0x12AB` and `U12AB` are parsed more strictly. + Previously the hexadecimal part was parsed with `strtoul()`, now only up + to 8 hexadecimal digits (0-9A-Fa-f) are allowed. + +- Compose files now have a size limit (65535 internal nodes). Further sequences + are discared and a warning is issued. + +- Compose table loading (`xkb_compose_table_new_from_locale()` and similar) is + much faster. + +- Use `poll()` instead of `epoll()` for `xlbcli interactive-evdev`, making it + portable to FreeBSD which provides evdev but not epoll. On FreeBSD, remember + to install the `evdev-proto` package to get the evdev headers. + +- The build now requires a C11 compiler (uses anonymous structs/unions). + +libxkbcommon 1.1.0 - 2021-02-27 +================== + +- Publish the `xkb-format-text-v1.md` file in the HTML documentation. This file + existed for a long time but only in the Git repository. + Link: https://xkbcommon.org/doc/current/md_doc_keymap_format_text_v1.html + +- Add partial documentation for xkb_symbols to xkb-format-text-v1.md. + + Contributed by Simon Zeni. + +- Update keysym definitions to latest xorgproto. In particular, this adds many + special keysyms corresponding to Linux evdev keycodes. + + Contributed by Peter Hutterer <@who-t.net>. + +- New API: + Too many XKB_KEY_* definitions to list here. + libxkbcommon 1.0.3 - 2020-11-23 ================== |
