Because we are creating a new parallel-installable gtkmm ABI (gtkmm- 4.0), for use with GTK+ 4.0, this is a fairly good time to do the same with glibmm, though glib will not have a new ABI at this time.
That let's us remove some deprecated API and let's us depend on the newer, simpler (because it's C++14) libsigc++-3.0. That means that gtkmm-4.0 would require C++14, but I think that should be fine for anyone who's likely to want to use it. The last stable version of glibmm (the glibmm-2.4 ABI) was glibmm 2.50, so we would have to call our new glibmm ABI glibmm-2.52. That's not pretty, but I don't see a better alternative. We can't call it glibmm- 3.0 because that would cause problems when there is a glib-3.0 one day. Any objections? -- Murray Cumming murr...@murrayc.com www.murrayc.com _______________________________________________ gtkmm-list mailing list gtkmm-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtkmm-list
