Hi,

it has been more than 3 years since shapelib v1.5.0 has been released. Here's a v1.6.0 release candidate:

- http://download.osgeo.org/shapelib/shapelib-1.6.0rc1.tar.gz

- http://download.osgeo.org/shapelib/shapelib-1.6.0rc1.zip

Changes:

 * shapefil.h: add SHAPELIB_VERSION_MAJOR/MINOR/MICRO, SHAPELIB_VERSION_NUMBER, and SHAPELIB_AT_LEAST macros
 * Compiler warning fixes and various code cleanups
 * SAHooks: add a void *pvUserData member. ABI change
 * SAHooks.FOpen and FClose callbacks: add a void *pvUserData parameter. API and ABI change
 * SAHooks.FWrite: make first parameter a const void*. API change
 * Do not distribute default COPYING and INSTALL
 * Use standard integer data types
 * Changes to allow building with cmake -DCMAKE_UNITY_BUILD=ON
 * Polygon writing: avoid considering rings slightly overlapping as inner-outer rings of others (refs OSGeo/gdal#5315)  * Polygon writing: consider rings at non-constant Z as outer rings (fixes OSGeo/gdal#5315)
   As noted in code comments, this is an approximation of more complicated
   tests we'd likely have to do, that would take into account real
   co-planar testing, to allow detecting inner rings of outer rings in an
   oblique plane.
 * shpopen.c: Communicate why the file size cannot be reached when appending features (OSGeo/gdal#4140)    Clearly state why the file size cannot be reached. This is important in order    to correctly inform the user and prevent him/her from looking for other reasons.
   Related to https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/issues/44202
 * SHPWriteObject(): prevent potential overflows on 64-bit platforms on huge geometries
 * SHPRestoreSHX: update SHX content length even if error occurred
 * In creation, uses w+b file opening mode instead of wb followed by r+b,
   to support network file systems having sequential write only and when
   using CPL_VSIL_USE_TEMP_FILE_FOR_RANDOM_WRITE=YES (fixes OSGeo/gdal#7801)
 * Fix adding features in a .dbf without columns (fixes qgis/qgis#51247)
 * Have matching SOVERSION for CMake and autotools
 * Code reformatting
 * Enable csv2shp build with MSVC
 * Build contributed utilities via CMake
 * fix mis-matching CMake arguments
 * Use the the standard BUILD_TESTING CMake variable
 * Remove double free() in contrib/shpsrt, issue #39
 * SHPRestoreSHX: fix for (64 bit) big endian
 * Add config-style support for find_package(shapefile)
 * Prevent no-op FSeeks writing dbf & shp records for network filesystem performance

Note that there's a small API and ABI breakage (hence a SONAME bump) in custom file callbacks, but I don't believe those API are widely used, so disruption should be modest hopefully.
