1.65.2 protected
Version 1.65.2 - It's now possible to omit the getter and setter for a GObject property on your class, if you only need the default behaviour (reading and writing the property, respecting the default value if not set, and implementing property notifications if the setter changes the value.) This should cut down on boilerplate code and any mistakes made in it. - The log level of exception messages has changed. Previously, some exceptions would be logged as critical-level messages even when they were logged intentionally with logError(). Now, critical-level messages are only logged when an exception goes uncaught (programmer error) and in all other cases a warning-level message is logged. - Closed bugs and merge requests: * build: Use '!=' instead of 'is not' to compare string [Robert Mader, !414] * Various maintenance [Philip Chimento, !413, !425] * doc fixes [Sonny Piers, !415, !416] * jsapi-util: Make log levels of exceptions consistent [Philip Chimento, !418] * Too much recursion error accessing overrided gobject interface property from a subclass [Philip Chimento, #306, !408] * JS: migrate from the global `window` to `globalThis` [Andy Holmes, !423] * doc: Fix a typo [Matthew Leeds, !424] -

1.63.90 protected
Version 1.63.90 - New JS API: The GObject module has gained new overrides: GObject.signal_handler_find(), GObject.signal_handlers_block_matched(), GObject.signal_handlers_unblock_matched(), and GObject.signal_handlers_disconnect_matched(). These overrides replace the corresponding C API, which was not idiomatic for JavaScript and was not fully functional because it used bare C pointers for some of its functionality. See modules/overrides/GObject.js for API documentation. - New JavaScript features! This version of GJS is based on SpiderMonkey 68, an upgrade from the previous ESR (Extended Support Release) of SpiderMonkey 60. Here are the highlights of the new JavaScript features. For more information, look them up on MDN or devdocs.io. * New language features + The BigInt type, currently a stage 3 proposal in the ES standard, is now available. * New syntax + `globalThis` is now the ES-standard supported way to get the global object, no matter what kind of JS environment. The old way, `window`, will still work, but is no longer preferred. + BigInt literals are expressed by a number with "n" appended to it: for example, `1n`, `9007199254740992n`. * New APIs + String.prototype.trimStart() and String.prototype.trimEnd() now exist and are preferred instead of trimLeft() and trimRight() which are nonstandard. + String.prototype.matchAll() allows easier access to regex capture groups. + Array.prototype.flat() flattens nested arrays, well-known from lodash and similar libraries. + Array.prototype.flatMap() acts like a reverse filter(), allowing adding elements to an array while iterating functional-style. + Object.fromEntries() creates an object from iterable key-value pairs. + Intl.RelativeTimeFormat is useful for formatting time differences into human-readable strings such as "1 day ago". + BigInt64Array and BigUint64Array are two new typed array types. * New behaviour + There are a lot of minor behaviour changes as SpiderMonkey's JS implementation conforms ever closer to existing ECMAScript standards and adopts new ones. For complete information, read the Firefox developer release notes: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Firefox/Releases/61#JavaScript https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Firefox/Releases/62#JavaScript https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Firefox/Releases/63#JavaScript https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Firefox/Releases/64#JavaScript https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Firefox/Releases/65#JavaScript https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Firefox/Releases/66#JavaScript https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Firefox/Releases/67#JavaScript https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Firefox/Releases/68#JavaScript * Backwards-incompatible changes + The nonstandard String generics were removed. These had only ever been implemented by Mozilla and never made it into a standard. (An example of a String generic is calling a string method on something that might not be a string like this: `String.endsWith(foo, 5)`. The proper way is `String.prototype.endsWith.call(foo, 5)` or converting `foo` to a string.) This should not pose much of a problem for existing code, since in the previous version these would already print a deprecation warning whenever they were used. You can use `moz68tool` from mozjs-deprecation-tools (https://gitlab.gnome.org/ptomato/moz60tool) to scan your code for this nonstandard usage. - Closed bugs and merge requests: * invalid import on signal.h [#295, !382, Philip Chimento] * SpiderMonkey 68 [#270, !386, Philip Chimento] * GObject: Add override for GObject.handler_block_by_func [#290, !371, Philip Chimento] -

1.58.4 protected
Version 1.58.4 - Now prints a warning when constructing an unregistered object inheriting from GObject (i.e. if you forgot to use GObject.registerClass.) In 1.58.2 this would throw an exception, which broke some existing code, so that change was reverted in 1.58.3. In this version the check is reinstated, but we log a warning instead of throwing an exception, so that people know to fix their code, but without breaking things. NOTE: In 1.64 (the next stable release) the warning will be changed back into an exception, because code with this problem can be subtly broken and cause unexpected errors elsewhere. So make sure to fix your code if you get this warning. - Closed bugs and merge requests: * GSettings crash fixes [Andy Holmes, !373] - Memory savings for Cairo objects [Philip Chimento, !374] - Fix for crash in debug functions [Philip Chimento, !374]

Version 1.58.3 - Emergency release, intended to correct two mistakes in 1.58.2, both coming from crash fixes that had unexpected other effects on working code. Distributors shipping 1.58.2 are urged to update to 1.58.3 as soon as possible. - Closed bugs and merge requests: * possible regression in gjs 1.58.2 [Philip Chimento, #288] * JS ERROR: TypeError: this._rooms.get(...) is undefined [Philip Chimento, #289, !366] -
1.63.2 protected
Version 1.63.2 - There is an option for changing the generated GType name for GObject classes created in GJS to a new scheme that is less likely to have collisions. This scheme is not yet the default, but you can opt into it by setting `GObject.gtypeNameBasedOnJSPath = true;` as early as possible in your prograṁ. Doing this may require some changes in Glade files if you use composite widget templates. We recommend you make this change in your codebase as soon as possible, to avoid any surprises in the future. - New JS API: GObject.Object has gained a stop_emission_by_name() method which is a bit more idiomatic than calling GObject.signal_stop_emission_by_name(). - It's now supported to use the "object" attribute in a signal connection in a composite widget template in a Glade file. - Closed bugs and merge requests: * CI: Tweak eslint rule for unneeded parentheses [Florian Müllner, !353] * Smarter GType name computation [Marco Trevisan, !337] * Meson CI [Philip Chimento, !354] * Visual Studio builds using Meson [Chun-wei Fan, !355] * Hide internal symbols from ABI [Marco Trevisan, #194, !352] * Allow creating custom tree models [Giovanni Campagna, #71] * build: Fix dist files [Florian Müllner, !357] * GObject: Add convenience wrapper for signal_stop_emission_by_name() [Florian Müllner, !358] * Various maintenance [Philip Chimento, !356] * object_instance_props_to_g_parameters should do more check on argv [Philip Chimento, #63, !359] * Support flat C arrays of structures [Philip Chimento, !361] * Gtk Templates: support connectObj argument [Andy Holmes, !363] - Various build fixes [Philip Chimento] -
