So it looks like now is the time.
Overall, I think now is the time to break ABI. We won't have another chance until GTK+ 4, which might never happen. I think we should combine this with using and requiring C++11, to get that out of the way too. I suspect that using C++11 would cause ABI breaks too, but plenty of better-informed people doubt that, so I'm just being pessimistic. Does anyone object to the ABI break? -- Murray Cumming murr...@murrayc.com www.murrayc.com _______________________________________________ gtkmm-list mailing list gtkmm-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtkmm-list
