Version 1.81.2 - New JavaScript features! This version of GJS is based on SpiderMonkey 128, an upgrade from the previous ESR (Extended Support Release) of SpiderMonkey 115. Here are the highlights of the new JavaScript features. For more information, look them up on MDN or devdocs.io. * New APIs + The new `Object.groupBy()` and `Map.groupBy()` static methods group the elements of an iterable according to the return value of a key function. + The new `Promise.withResolvers()` static method returns a Promise as well as its resolve and reject functions, shorthand for a common pattern used when promisifying event-based APIs. + Strings have gained the `isWellFormed()` and `toWellFormed()` methods which help when interoperating with strings that may have unpaired Unicode surrogates. This usually does not come up in the GNOME platform. + ArrayBuffers have gained the `transfer()` and `transferToFixedLength()` methods, which transfer ownership of a data buffer to a new ArrayBuffer object, without copying it, and invalidating ("detaching") any existing references to the buffer. There is also a new property, `detached`, which allows checking whether an ArrayBuffer is in the detached state. + The new `Intl.Segmenter` class allows splitting a string into graphemes, words, or sentences, in a locale-aware way. + `Intl.NumberFormat` has gained `formatRange()` and `formatRangeToParts()` methods, which allow formatting number ranges, like "3–5". + `Intl.PluralRules` has gained a `selectRange()` method, which allows selecting the proper plural form based on a range of numbers, like "30–50 feral hogs". * New behaviour + The `Intl.NumberFormat` and `Intl.PluralRules` constructors support new options: `roundingIncrement`, `roundingMode`, `roundingPriority`, and `trailingZeroDisplay`. + The `Intl.NumberFormat` constructor also supports the new option `useGrouping`. * Backwards-incompatible changes + The behaviour of `Date.parse()` has been changed to be more consistent with other JavaScript engines. (But don't use `Date.parse()`.) - Closed bugs and merge requests: * Invalid search paths cause failed assertions when printing imports.gi [#629, !935, Gary Li] * SpiderMonkey 128 [#630, !936, !945, Philip Chimento] * Pretty-printing byte array in gjs-console throws a type conversion error [#434, !937, Gary Li] * js: Add gjs_debug_callable() debug function [!940, Philip Chimento] * build: Build Cairo from subproject if not found [!941, Philip Chimento] * Bump CI image to Fedora 40 [!942, Philip Chimento] * CI tools updates [!943, Philip Chimento] -

Version 1.81.1 - Breaking change: When creating a GObject with the `new` operator, the constructor takes a single argument consisting of a property bag with GObject construct properties and their values. This was often confused with the `new` static method that may take arguments that are not interpreted as property bags. For example, Gio.FileIcon was one of the many affected APIs: new Gio.FileIcon({file: myFile}) vs Gio.FileIcon.new(myFile) Confusion between the two often lead to bug reports when confusing these two and calling `new Gio.FileIcon(myFile)` - the constructor would look for a nonexistent `file` property on `myFile`, causing an improperly initialized object. This is now no longer allowed. The argument to `new Gio.FileIcon(...)` must be a plain JS object, not a GObject. It's possible that existing code legitimately used a GObject here. If your code does this and a quick migration is impractical, please get in touch and we will revert this change before 1.82.0 in favour of a longer deprecation period. - The `get_data()`, `get_qdata()`, `set_data()`, `steal_data()`, `steal_qdata()`, `ref()`, `unref()`, `ref_sink()`, and `force_floating()` methods of GObject now throw if called. These methods never worked, but sometimes they would silently appear to succeed, then cause crashes or memory leaks later. If you were trying to use the `get_data()` family of methods, just set a JS property instead. If you were trying to modify the refcount of a GObject in JS, instead set the object as the value of a JS property on some other object. - Closed bugs and merge requests: * doc: Document how to get a stack trace [!864, Sonny Piers] * TextDecoder should accept GBytes [#587, !903, Sriyansh Shivam] * Possible use-after-free with GLib.Regex.match/GLib.MatchInfo [#589, !920, Philip Chimento] * method `get_line` of `Pango.Layout` doesn't work.
