1.77.2
Version 1.77.2 - New JavaScript features! This version of GJS is based on SpiderMonkey 115, an upgrade from the previous ESR (Extended Support Release) of SpiderMonkey 102. Here are the highlights of the new JavaScript features. For more information, look them up on MDN or devdocs.io. * New APIs + Arrays and typed arrays have gained `findLast()` and `findLastIndex()` methods, which act like `find()` and `findIndex()` respectively, but start searching at the end of the array. + Arrays and typed arrays have gained the `with()` method, which returns a copy of the array with one element replaced. + Arrays and typed arrays have gained `toReversed()`, `toSorted()`, and `toSpliced()` methods, which act like `reverse()`, `sort()`, and `splice()` respectively, but return a copy of the array instead of modifying it in-place. + The `Array.fromAsync()` static method acts like `Array.from()` but with async iterables, and returns a Promise that fulfills to the new Array. - It is now possible to build GJS with -fno-exceptions, by invoking Meson with -Dcpp_eh=none. - Closed bugs and merge requests: * Port to mozjs115 [#556, !855, !871, !874, Xi Ruoyao, Philip Chimento] * Various maintenance [!856, Philip Chimento] * arg: Preserve transfer when freeing out arrays [!857, Marco Trevisan] * Some values leak fixes and cleanups [!860, Marco Trevisan] * Does not parse hash tables in signals [#488, !861, Marco Trevisan] * docs: fix minor URL mistakes and behavioural omissions [!865, Andy Holmes] * gjs: Listen to GMemoryMonitor::low-memory-warning to trigger GC [!870, Marco Trevisan] * GSettings override in Gio.js may fail on construction [#418, !873, Onur Şahin] * Gio: Fix constructing Settings with a SettingsSchema object [!876, James Westman, Philip Chimento] Git-EVTag-v0-SHA512: 002bed5b4489627ee338b204df016213f4a61f8b0df0bcd4be585599eb4026fded3c9ecae7cf5f91c68628d4eb86d41a8dbd56a44bbc8fb9c822a17c11a2f04a -

1.75.2
Version 1.75.2 - There are new `Gio.Application.prototype.runAsync()` and `GLib.MainLoop.prototype.runAsync()` methods which do the same thing as `run()` but return a Promise which resolves when the main loop ends, instead of blocking while the main loop runs. Use one of these methods (by awaiting it) if you use async operations with Promises in your application. Previously, it was easy to get into a state where Promises never resolved if you didn't run the main loop inside a callback. [Evan Welsh] - There are new `Gio.InputStream.prototype.createSyncIterator()` and `Gio.InputStream.prototype.createAsyncIterator()` methods which allow easy iteration of input streams in consecutive chunks of bytes, either with a for-of loop or a for-await-of loop. [Sonny Piers] - DBus proxy wrapper classes now have a static `newAsync()` method, which returns a Promise that resolves to an instance of the proxy wrapper class on which `initAsync()` has completed. [Marco Trevisan] - DBus property getters can now return GLib.Variant instances directly, if they have the correct type, instead of returning JS values and having them be packed into GLib.Variants. [Andy Holmes] - Dramatic performance improvements in the legacy `imports.signals` module, which has also gained a `connectAfter()` method that works like the same-named method in GObject signals. (However, the signals module remains legacy, and is mostly there for historical reasons with GNOME Shell. Don't use it in new code.) [Marco Trevisan] - For years we have had a typo in `Cairo.LineCap.SQUARE`, incorrectly naming it `SQUASH`. This is fixed and the typoed name is retained as an alias. [Vítor Vasconcellos] - Also in Cairo, the value of `Cairo.Format.RGB16_565` was wrong. This was fixed with a breaking change, because anyone using it was probably already not getting the results they expected. [Vítor Vasconcellos] - Continuing the Cairo improvements, SVG surfaces have gained `Cairo.SVGSurface.prototype.finish()` and `Cairo.SVGSurface.prototype.flush()` because previously SVG surfaces were only written to disk when the SVGSurface object was garbage collected, making it uncertain to rely on them. [tuberry] - The debugger now handles Symbol values and Symbol property keys of objects. Previously, these were not displayed correctly. [Philip Chimento] - Various type-safety refactors [Marco Trevisan] - Many bug fixes and performance improvements. - Closed bugs and merge requests: * Promises in application.run do not fullfil until loop exit [#468, !732, Evan Welsh] * console: Various cleanups to tracing functions and increase structured logging metadata [!756, Marco Trevisan] * Legacy signals code optimizations [!757, Marco Trevisan] * meson: Depend on g-i 1.71 and enable newly supported tests [!761, Marco Trevisan] * Gio: Add support for initializing a DBus Proxy via a promise [#494, !794, Marco Trevisan, Philip Chimento] * Make GInputStream iterable and async iterable [!573, !797, Sonny Piers] * Gio: allow D-Bus implementations to return pre-packed variants [!796, Andy Holmes] * Update ESLint tooling [!798, Sonny Piers] * Various maintenance [!804, !814, !820, Philip Chimento] * Add legacy signals connectAfter method [!805, Marco Trevisan] * arg-cache: Add support passing caller-allocated C-arrays [!806, Marco Trevisan] * Crash when passing an introspected function as a callback argument [#518, !809, Philip Chimento] * CI: Upgrade CI images to F37 [!810, Philip Chimento] * Possible errors in cairo enums [#516, !811, Vítor Vasconcellos] * ci: Only run source check jobs if relevant files have been changed [!812, Marco Trevisan] * cairo.SVGSurface need finish() and flush() to finalize painting [#515, !816, tuberry] * signals: Fix bugs when multiple handlers are connected and disconnect is called [!818, Evan Welsh] * Handle Symbol values in pretty-printer and debugger [!819, Philip Chimento] Version 1.74.2 -------------- - Various fixes ported from the development branch. - Closed bugs and merge requests: * build error with clang [#514, !807, Philip Chimento] * can't compile current version with mozjs 102 [#503, !808, Philip Chimento] * Enabling window-list extension causes gnome-shell to crash when running "dconf update" as root [#510, !813, Philip Chimento] * log: Fix an off-by-one buffer overflow [!817, Valentin David] -

1.73.2
Version 1.73.2 - New JavaScript features! This version of GJS is based on SpiderMonkey 102, an upgrade from the previous ESR (Extended Support Release) of SpiderMonkey 91. Here are the highlights of the new JavaScript features. For more information, look them up on MDN or devdocs.io. * New APIs + The `Object.hasOwn()` static method can be used as an easier replacement for `Object.prototype.hasOwnProperty.call(...)`. + `Intl.supportedValuesOf()` lets you enumerate which calendars, currencies, collation strategies, numbering systems, time zones, and units are available for internationalization. - It's now possible to use `GObject.BindingGroup.prototype.bind_full()` with JS functions. Previously this method was unusable in JS. - Gio.FileEnumerator is now iterable, both synchronously (with for-of or array spread syntax) and asynchronously (with for-await-of). - Performance improvements in the built-in `imports.signals` module. - Many improvements to the examples and documentation. - Closed bugs and merge requests: * Spidermonkey 102 [#487, !765, !785, Evan Welsh, Philip Chimento] * Object connections / signal emissions optimizations [#485, !758, Marco Trevisan] * tests/Gio: Cleanup Gio._promisify [!767, Marco Trevisan] * Include JUnit reports in builds [!768, Marco Trevisan] * Integrate pretty print to the debugger [!769, Nasah Kuma] * doc: Edit GJS description [!771, Sonny Piers] * doc: note the version `constructor()` became supported [!774, Andy Holmes] * build: disable sysprof agent for subproject fallback [!775, Christian Hergert] * Update CI images [!776, !777, !778, Philip Chimento] * GListModel.get_n_items returns garbage value [#493, !779, Florian Müllner] * Add override for g_binding_group_bind_full() [!780, Florian Müllner] * doc: Modernize examples [!781, Sonny Piers] * doc: Document byteArray deprecation and migration [!782, Sonny Piers] * doc: add simple Gtk.TickCallback example [!783, Andy Holmes] * Make GFileEnumerator iterable and async iterable [!784, Sonny Piers] -

1.73.1
Version 1.73.1 - The interactive interpreter now displays its output more intelligently, pretty-printing the properties and values of objects based on their type. This improvement also applies to the log() and logError() functions. - New API: DBus proxy classes now include methods named with the suffix 'Async', which perform async calls to DBus APIs and return Promises. This is in addition to the existing suffixes 'Sync' (for blocking calls) and 'Remote' (for async calls with callbacks.) - There is an override for Gio.ActionMap.prototype.add_action_entries(). Previously this method wouldn't work because it required an array of Gio.ActionEntry objects, which are not possible to construct in GJS. Now it can be used with an array of plain objects. (e.g. `this.add_action_entries([{name: 'open', activate() { ... }}]);` - GJS is now compatible with libffi 3.4.2 and later. All earlier versions of GJS are not compatible with libffi 3.4.2 and later unless libffi is built with the --disable-exec-static-tramp flag. - GJS now requires Meson 0.54 to build. - Closed bugs and merge requests: * Verbose Object Print Output [#107, !587, Nasah Kuma] * Add support for JS async calls in DBusProxyWrapper [!731, Sergio Costas] * Crash after build against libffi 3.4.2 [#428, !737, Evan Welsh] * Handle reference cycles in new console pretty print function [#469, !739, Nasah Kuma] * Gnome-Shell 42 - crash after login (general protection fault) [#479, !740, Xi Ruoyao] * Various maintenance [!741, Philip Chimento] * jsapi-util-strings: Ignore locale to compute the upper case of a char (i.e. fix implicit properties on Turkish locale) [!742, Marco Trevisan] * Dockerfile: Install Turkish locale in CI for UTF-8 locale too [!743, Marco Trevisan] * Improve pretty-print output for GObject-introspected objects [#476, !744, Nasah Kuma] * Expose pretty print function to tests [!745, Nasah Kuma] * build: track changes to Sysprof meson options [!747, Christian Hergert] * Make Gio.ActionMap.add_action_entries work [#407, !749, Sonny Piers] * Make DBus session and system props non-enumerable [!750, Sonny Piers] * gi/arg-inl: Mark the arg functions as constexpr [!752, Marco Trevisan] * build: Do not use verbose GJS debug logging in tests by default [!753, Marco Trevisan] * minijasmine: Print test JS errors output if any [!754, Marco Trevisan] * doc: document the existence of the console object in GJS [!759, Andy Holmes] * arg-cache: Use a switch to select the not-introspectable error [!762, Marco Trevisan] * log_set_writer_func is not safe to use [#481, !766, Evan Welsh] -
