+ Gtk template signals cause a reference cycle that is not
detected
+ Modules from resources may get loaded twice
+ docs: add examples for creating cairo image surfaces
+ Deadlocks between GJS GC and dconf gsettings when a setting
value is changed
+ Gtk3: Fix leak in GtkBuilder template signal connections
- Drop 3cae384aaf15dec6653b1a5400032c2c2e5dc34c.patch: Fixed
upstream
* Thu Oct 26 2023 bjorn.lie@gmail.com
- Add 3cae384aaf15dec6653b1a5400032c2c2e5dc34c.patch: module:
Canonicalize import specifier before inserting it in registry.
* Wed Oct 11 2023 dimstar@opensuse.org
- Explicitly BuildRequire /usr/bin/dbus-run-session: needed by the
test suite.
* Sun Sep 17 2023 bjorn.lie@gmail.com
- Update to version 1.78.0:
+ Closed bugs and merge requests:
- Improved Console.log Output
- `gjs:dbus / Gtk4` unit test fails: Function
Gtk.SectionModel.get_section() cannot be called
* Wed Sep 06 2023 luc14n0@opensuse.org
- Drop pkgconfig(sysprof-4) BuildRequires. This was only needed
because sysprof-capture-static-devel was lacking header files,
which was mistakenly being packaged with sysprof-devel, and it's
fixed now.
- Add with(out) "profiling" build switch and disable it, by
default, as profiling isn't meant for general use. This nests
pkgconfig(sysprof-capture-4) BuildRequires under an if-with
expression and passes profiler=(enabled|disabled) to meson,
depending on the profiling switch.
* Tue Sep 05 2023 bjorn.lie@gmail.com
- Update to version 1.77.90:
+ Building GJS with -fno-exceptions is now the default. To retain

* Sun Aug 13 2023 bjorn.lie@gmail.com
- Update to 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
- Various maintenance
- arg: Preserve transfer when freeing out arrays
- Some values leak fixes and cleanups
- Does not parse hash tables in signals
- docs: fix minor URL mistakes and behavioural omissions
- gjs: Listen to GMemoryMonitor::low-memory-warning to trigger
GC
- GSettings override in Gio.js may fail on construction
- Gio: Fix constructing Settings with a SettingsSchema object
- Replace pkgconfig(mozjs-102) with pkgconfig(mozjs-115)
BuildRequires following upstreams port.
* Mon Jul 10 2023 bjorn.lie@gmail.com
- Update to version 1.77.1:
+ Many documentation improvements and cleanups.
+ New API for C programs embedding GJS:
gjs_context_run_in_realm(). This allows using the SpiderMonkey
API, for advanced use cases, while having entered the main
realm where GJS code runs. Most programs will not need to use
this.
+ Closed bugs and merge requests:
- Cleanups: Use more autopointers.
- bug(build, tests): broken dependency cycle associated with
the `have_gtk4` variable.
- Better handling of callbacks during GC.
- doc: Add Gio and GLib runAsync overrides.
- installed-tests/meson: Add tests dependencies on gjs console
and GjsPrivate.
- gi/arg: Cleanup handling of C arrays and GValue arrays.

+ No changes from release candidate 1.75.90.
* Mon Mar 06 2023 bjorn.lie@gmail.com
- Update to version 1.75.90:
+ Closed bugs and merge requests:
- NEWS: fix a typo causing codespell to fail
- doc: Add more apps written in GJS
- Gio: Use proper default priority on async generators
- gjs 1.75.2 GObjectValue build test failing on ARM
- testGObjectValue: Enable creating object with a string
property
- Handle transfer-none string return value from vfunc
implemented in JS
- Various maintenance, performance improvements
* Fri Feb 24 2023 bjorn.lie@gmail.com
- Update to 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.
+ 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.
+ 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.
+ 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.
+ 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.)
+ 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.
+ 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.
+ 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.
+ The debugger now handles Symbol values and Symbol property keys
of objects. Previously, these were not displayed correctly.
+ Various type-safety refactors.
+ Many bug fixes and performance improvements.

- Update to 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
- Object connections / signal emissions optimizations

BuildRequires following upstreams changes.
* Tue Aug 09 2022 bjorn.lie@gmail.com
- Update to 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

- Update to version 1.63.90:
+ This version of GJS is based on SpiderMonkey 68, an upgrade
from the previous ESR (Extended Support Release) of
SpiderMonkey 60.
+ New language features
- The BigInt type, currently a stage 3 proposal in the ES
standard, is now available.
+ New syntax
- `globalThis` is now the ES-standard supported way to get the
global object, no matter what kind of JS environment.
- BigInt literals are expressed by a number with "n" appended
to it: for example, `1n`, `9007199254740992n`.
+ New behaviour: There are a lot of minor behaviour changes as
SpiderMonkey's JS implementation conforms ever closer to
existing ECMAScript standards and adopts new ones. For complete
information, read the Firefox developer release notes
+ Backwards-incompatible changes: The nonstandard String generics
were removed.
- Changes from version 1.63.3:
+ JS ERROR: TypeError: this._rooms.get(...) is undefined.
+ gjs-symlink script is incompatible with distro builds.
+ object: Warn when setting a deprecated property.
- Switch to meson buildsystem, add meson BuildRequires and macros.
- Replace gcc-c++ with c++_compiler BuildRequires.
- Add git BuildRequires: New dependency (expected to be dropped).
- Add pkgconfig(sysprof-3) and pkgconfig(sysprof-capture-3)
BuildRequires, build profiler support.
- Pass -Dinstalled_tests=false to meson: do not install the test
suite (it's meant to be invalid code, which in turn confuses the
dep scanner).

+ Various backports:
- Correctly handle vfunc inout parameters.

- Avoid filename conflict when tests run in parallel.
* Tue Feb 18 2020 bjorn.lie@gmail.com
- Update to version 1.58.5:
+ Can not access GObject properties of classes without
GI information.
* Wed Jan 08 2020 bjorn.lie@gmail.com
- Update to version 1.58.4:
+ Now prints a warning when constructing an unregistered object
inheriting from GObject (i.e. if you forgot to use
GObject.registerClass.) In 1.58.2 this would throw an
exception, which broke some existing code, so that change was
reverted in 1.58.3. In this version the check is reinstated,
but we log a warning instead of throwing an exception, so that
people know to fix their code, but without breaking things.
NOTE: In 1.64 (the next stable release) the warning will be
changed back into an exception, because code with this problem
can be subtly broken and cause unexpected errors elsewhere. So
make sure to fix your code if you get this warning.
+ GSettings crash fixes.
+ Memory savings for Cairo objects.
+ Fix for crash in debug functions.
* Wed Dec 04 2019 fcrozat@suse.com
- Enable systemtap support.
* Mon Nov 25 2019 bjorn.lie@gmail.com
- Update to version 1.58.3:

both coming from crash fixes that had unexpected other effects
on working code.
* Sun Nov 24 2019 bjorn.lie@gmail.com
- Update to version 1.58.2:
+ GObject based class initialization checks.
+ Silently leaked return value of callbacks.

of structures.
* Various maintenance.
* Thu Aug 29 2019 luke@ljones.dev
- Update to version 1.57.91:
+ GJS no longer links to libgtk-3. This makes it possible to load the Gtk-4.0
typelib in GJS and write programs that use GTK 4.
+ The heapgraph tool has gained some improvements; it is now possible to print a
heap graph of multiple targets. You can also mark an object for better
identification in the heap graph by assigning a magic property: for example,
myObject.__heapgraph_name = 'Button' will make that object identify itself as
"Button" in heap graphs.
+ Closed bugs and merge requests:
- Remove usage of Lang in non legacy code.
- GTK4.
- JS syntax fixes.
- gi: Avoid infinite recursion when converting GValues.
- Implement all GObject-introspection test suites.
- Heapgraph improvements.
- Update to version 1.57.90:
+ New JS API: GLib.Variant has gained a recursiveUnpack() method which
transforms the variant entirely into a JS object, discarding all type
information. This can be useful for dealing with a{sv} dictionaries, where
deepUnpack() will keep the values as GLib.Variant instances in order to
preserve the type information.
+ New JS API: GLib.Variant has gained a deepUnpack() method which is exactly the
same as the already existing deep_unpack(), but fits with the other camelCase
APIs that GJS adds.
+ Closed bugs and merge requests:
- Marshalling of GPtrArray broken.
- Fix locale chooser.
- dbus-wrapper: Remove interface skeleton flush idle on dispose.
- gobject: Use auto-compartment when getting property as well.
- modules/signals: Use array destructuring in _emit.
- GJS can't call glibtop_init function from libgtop.
- GLib's VariantDict is missing lookup.
- toString on an object implementing an interface fails.
- Regression in GstPbutils.Discoverer::discovered callback.
- GLib.Variant.deep_unpack not working properly with a{sv} variants.
- Various maintenance.
+ Various CI fixes.
- Update to version 1.57.4:
+ Closed bugs and merge requests:
- gjs 1.57 requires a recent sysprof version for sysprof-capture-3.
+ Misc documentation changes.
- Update to version 1.57.3:
+ The GJS profiler is now integrated directly into Sysprof 3, via the
GJS_TRACE_FD environment variable. Call stack information and garbage
collector timing will show up in Sysprof. See also GNOME/Initiatives#10
+ New JS API: System.addressOfGObject(obj) will return a string with the hex
address of the underlying GObject of `obj` if it is a GObject wrapper, or
throw an exception if it is not. This is intended for debugging.
+ New JS API: It's now possible to pass a value from Gio.DBusProxyFlags to the
constructor of a class created by Gio.DBusProxy.makeProxyWrapper().
+ Backwards-incompatible change: Trying to read a write-only property on a DBus
proxy object, or write a read-only property, will now throw an exception.
Previously it would fail silently. It seems unlikely any code is relying on
the old behaviour, and if so then it was probably masking a bug.
+ Closed bugs and merge requests:
- Build failure on Continuous.
- build: Bump glib requirement.
- profiler: avoid clearing 512 bytes of stack.
- system: add addressOfGObject method.
- Add support for GJS_TRACE_FD.
- Gio: Make possible to pass DBusProxyFlags to proxy wrapper.
- Various maintenance.
- Marshalling of GPtrArray broken.
- Build fix.
- Gio: sync dbus wrapper properties flags.
- GjsMaybeOwned: Reduce allocation when used as Object member.
- Update to version 1.57.2:
+ There are now overrides for Gio.SettingsSchema and Gio.Settings which avoid
aborting the whole process when trying to access a nonexistent key or child
schema. The original API from GLib was intended for apps, since apps should
have complete control over which settings keys they are allowed to access.
However, it is not a good fit for shell extensions, which may need to access
different settings keys depending on the version of GNOME shell they're
running on.
This feature is based on code from Cinnamon which the copyright holders have
kindly agreed to relicense to GJS's license.
+ New JS API: It is now possible to pass GObject.TypeFlags to
GObject.registerClass(). For example, passing
`GTypeFlags: GObject.TypeFlags.ABSTRACT` in the class info object, will create
a class that cannot be instantiated. This functionality was present in
Lang.Class but has been missing from GObject.registerClass().
+ Closed bugs and merge requests:
- Document logging features.
- Support optional GTypeFlags value in GObject subclasses.
- Ensure const-correctness in C++ objects.
- Programmer errors with GSettings cause segfaults.
- Various maintenance.
- debugger: Fix summary help.
- context: Use Heap pointers for GC objects stored in vectors.
- Update to version 1.57.1:
+ Closed bugs and merge requests:
- Various maintenance.
- mainloop: Assign null to property instead of deleting.
- Added -d version note README.md.
- Extra help for debugger commands.
- Crash in BoxedInstance when struct could not be allocated directly.
- Cairo conversion bugs.
* Wed May 08 2019 bjorn.lie@gmail.com

+ NMake/libgjs-private: Export all the public symbols there.
* Mon Feb 18 2019 bjorn.lie@gmail.com
- Update to version 1.55.91:
+ The problem of freezing while running the tests using GCC's
sanitizers was determined to be a bug in GCC, which was fixed
in GCC 9.0.1.
+ Closed bugs and merge requests:
- gnome-sound-recorder crashes deep inside libgjs.
- Various maintenance.
- wrapperutils: Define $gtype property as non-enumerable.
* Wed Feb 13 2019 bjorn.lie@gmail.com
- Update to version 1.55.90:
+ New JS API: It's now possible to call and implement DBus
methods whose parameters or return types include file
descriptor lists (type signature 'h'). This involves passing or
receiving a Gio.UnixFDList instance along with the parameters
or return values.
+ To call a method with a file descriptor list, pass the
Gio.UnixFDList along with the rest of the parameters, in any
order, the same way you would pass a Gio.Cancellable or async
callback.
+ For return values, things are a little more complicated, in
order to avoid breaking existing code. Previously,
synchronously called DBus proxy methods would return an
unpacked GVariant. Now, but only if called with a
Gio.UnixFDList, they will return [unpacked GVariant,
Gio.UnixFDList]. This does not break existing code because it
was not possible to call a method with a Gio.UnixFDList before,
and the return value is unchanged if not calling with a
Gio.UnixFDList. This does mean, unfortunately, that if you have
a method with an 'h' in its return signature but not in its
argument signatures, you will have to call it with an empty
FDList in order to receive an FDList with the return value,
when calling synchronously.
+ On the DBus service side, when receiving a method call, we now
pass the Gio.UnixFDList received from DBus to the called
method. Previously, sync methods were passed the parameters,
and async methods were passed the parameters plus the
Gio.DBusInvocation object. Appending the Gio.UnixFDList to
those parameters also should not break existing code.
+ See the new tests in installed-tests/js/testGDBus.js for
examples of calling methods with FD lists.
+ We have observed on the CI server that GJS 1.55.90 will hang
forever while running the test suite compiled with GCC 9.0.0
and configured with the --enable-asan and --enable-ubsan
arguments. This should be addressed in one of the following
1.55.x releases.
+ Closed bugs and merge requests:
- GDBus proxy overrides should support
Gio.DBusProxy.call_with_unix_fd_list().
- Add regression tests for GObject vfuncs.
- GjsPrivate: Sources should be C files.
- build: Vendor last-good version of AX_CODE_COVERAGE.
* Tue Jan 08 2019 bjorn.lie@gmail.com
- Update to version 1.55.4:

+ Various maintenance.
+ ByteArray.toString should stop at null bytes.
+ Byte arrays that represent encoded strings should be
0-terminated.
+ context: Defer and therefore batch forced GC runs.

+ Regression with DBus proxies.
* Sun Sep 09 2018 antoine.belvire@opensuse.org
- Update to version 1.54.0:
+ Compatibility fix for byte arrays: the legacy toString()
behaviour of byte arrays returned from GObject-introspected
functions is now restored. If you use the functionality, a
warning will be logged asking you to upgrade your code
(glgo#GNOME/gjs#227).
* Fri Aug 31 2018 luc14n0@linuxmail.org
- Update to version 1.53.92:
+ Technology preview of a GNOME 3.32 feature: native Promises for
GIO-style asynchronous operations. Since this is a technology
preview, we do not guarantee API stability with the version
coming in GNOME 3.32. These APIs are marked with underscores to
emphasize that they are not stable yet. Use them at your own
risk.
+ Closed bugs and merge requests:
- Added promisify to GJS GIO overrides (glgo#GNOME/gjs!225).

+ New JavaScript features! This version of GJS is based on
SpiderMonkey 60, an upgrade from the previous ESR (Extended
Support Release) of SpiderMonkey 52.
+ Fixed bugs: glgo#GNOME/gjs#178, glgo#GNOME/gjs#179,
glgo#GNOME/gjs#185, glgo#GNOME/gjs#110, CWE-126
(glgo#GNOME/gjs#174), glgo#GNOME/gjs#149, glgo#GNOME/gjs#132,
glgo#GNOME/gjs#161, glgo#GNOME/gjs#5, glgo#GNOME/gjs#186.
- Changes from version 1.53.4:
+ Refactored the way GObject properties are accessed. This should
be a bit more efficient, as property info (GParamSpec) is now
cached for every object type. There may still be some
regressions from this; please be on the lookout so we can fix
them in the next release.
+ The memory usage for each object instance has been reduced,
resulting in several dozens of megabytes less memory usage in
GNOME Shell.
+ Fixed bugs: glgo#GNOME/gjs#160, glgo#GNOME/gjs#24,
glgo#GNOME/gjs#173, glgo#GNOME/gjs#165, glgo#GNOME/gjs#171,
glgo#GNOME/gjs#177, glgo#GNOME/gjs#172, glgo#GNOME/gjs#182.
- Changes from version 1.53.3:

- Update to version 1.53.2:
+ The `Template` parameter passed to `GObject.registerClass()`
now accepts file:/// URIs as well as resource:/// URIs and byte
arrays.
+ New API: `gjs_get_js_version()` returns a string identifying
the version of the underlying SpiderMonkey JS engine. The
interpreter executable has also gained a `--jsversion` argument
which will print this string.
+ Several fixes for memory efficiency and performance.
+ Fixed bugs:
- Reduce memory overhead of g_object_weak_ref()
(glgo#GNOME/gjs#144).
- Use compacting GC on RSS size growth (glgo#GNOME/gjs#151).
- Segfault on enumeration of GjSFileImporter properties when a
searchpath entry contains a symlink.

source code licenses. And set LPGL-2.0-or-later License tag for
libgjs library subpackage.
- Drop fixed upstream patches:
+ gjs-Add-API-to-force-GC-schedule.patch and
+ gjs-Queue-forced-GC.patch.
+ gjs-ensure-force_gc-flag-use.patch.

* Mon Apr 30 2018 bjorn.lie@gmail.com
- Add gjs-Add-API-to-force-GC-schedule.patch: context: Add API to
force GC schedule. There are situations where we cannot run the
GC right away, but we also cannot ignore the need of running it.
For those cases, add a new private function that forces GC to
happen on idle (glgo"GNOME/gjs#140).
- Add gjs-Queue-forced-GC.patch: object: Queue a forced GC when
toggling down. Since we cannot know how many more wrapped
GObjects are going be marked for garbage collection after the
owner is destroyed, always queue a garbage collection when a
toggle reference goes down (glgo"GNOME/gjs#140).
* Wed Apr 18 2018 bjorn.lie@gmail.com

and stop profiling, there is new API for GjsContext.
+ New API: GObject.signal_connect(), GObject.signal_disconnect(),
and GObject.signal_emit_by_name() are now available in case a
GObject-derived class has conflicting connect(), disconnect()

with mozjs54 and s390 is only for compability with old
applications (gjs doesn't qualifies).
* Tue Jan 30 2018 bjorn.lie@gmail.com
- Update to version 1.50.4:
+ Gnome Shell crash with places-status extension when you plug an
USB device (glgo#gjs#33 and glgo#gjs#38).
- Changes from version 1.50.3:
+ GJS will now log a warning when a GObject is accessed in
Javascript code after the underlying object has been freed in
C. (This used to work most of the time, but crash
unpredictably.) We now prevent this situation which, is usually
by caused a memory management bug in the underlying C library.
+ Closed bugs and merge requests:
- Add checks for GObjects that have been finalized
(glgo#gjs#21, glgo#gjs#23, glgo#gjs#25, glgo#gjs#28,
glgo#gjs#33).

- legacy: Allow ES6 classes to inherit from abstract Lang.Class
class.
+ Minor bugfixes.
- Update Url to https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/Gjs: current Gjs'
project web page.
- Align BuildRequires with configure:
+ Add pkgconfig(*): cairo-gobject, gio-2.0, gobject-2.0 and
gthread-2.0.
+ Drop pkgconfig(libmozjs-52) and libxml2-tools.
* Tue Oct 03 2017 zaitor@opensuse.org
- Update to version 1.50.1:
+ As a debugging aid, gjs_dumpstack() now works even during
garbage collection.
+ Code coverage tools did not work so well in the last few 1.49
releases. The worst problems are now fixed, although even more
improvements will be released in the next unstable version.
Fixes include:
- Specifing prefixes for code coverage files now works again.
- Code coverage now works on lines inside ES6 class
definitions.
- The detection of which lines are executable has been improved
a bit.

- Rectify summaries.
* Mon Sep 11 2017 dimstar@opensuse.org
- Update to version 1.50.0:

the rest of GJS (bgo#787263).
- Change license back to MIT.
* Tue Sep 05 2017 dimstar@opensuse.org
- Update to version 1.49.92:
+ It's now possible to build GJS with sanitizers (ASan and
UBSan) enabled; add "--enable-asan" and "--enable-ubsan" to
your configure flags.
+ There's also a "make check-valgrind" target which will run
GJS's test suite under Valgrind to catch memory leaks and
threading races.
+ Many of the crashes in GNOME 3.24 were caused by GJS's closure
invalidation code which had to change from the known-working
state in 1.46 because of changes to SpiderMonkey's garbage
collector. This code has been refactored to be less
complicated, which will hopefully improve stability and
debuggability.
+ Docs tweaks.
+ Bugs fixed: bgo#783220, bgo#786668, bgo#786995, bgo#787113.
* Mon Sep 04 2017 dimstar@opensuse.org
- Temporariliy change license to GPL-2.0+: there are a couple files
in the source tree, that link into libgjs and bring the code to
GPL-2.0+ level; upstream is working on relicensing them
(bgo#787263).
* Tue Aug 22 2017 zaitor@opensuse.org
- Update to version 1.49.91:
+ Deprecation: The private "__name__" property on Lang.Class
instances is now discouraged. Code should not have been using
this anyway, but if it did then it should use the "name"
property on the class (this.__name__ should become
this.constructor.name), which is compatible with ES6 classes.
+ Closed bugs:
- Use ES6 classes (bgo#785652).
- A few fixes for stack traces and error reporting
(bgo#786183).
- /proc/self/stat is read for every frame if GC was not needed
(bgo#786017).
+ Build fix.

+ This version of GJS is based on SpiderMonkey 52.
+ New language features
- ES6 classes.
- Async functions and await operator.
- Reflect - built-in object with methods for interceptable
operations.

String.replace(), and String.search() (e.g.
`str.replace('foo', 'bar', 'g')`) is now ignored.
- Non-standard WeakSet.clear() method has been removed.
- Variables declared with let and const are now 'global lexical
bindings', as per the ES6 standard, meaning that they will
not be exported in modules.
+ Closed bugs:
- Prepare for SpiderMonkey 45 and 52 (bgo#781429).
- Add a static analysis tool as a make target (bgo#783214).
- Fix the build with debug logs enabled (bgo#784469).
- Switch to SpiderMonkey 52 (bgo#784196).

using the Meson build system, you can now run the app with
"ninja run" and all the paths will be set up correctly.
+ New feature: Gio.ListStore is now iterable.
+ New API: Package.requireSymbol(), a companion for the already
existing Package.require(), that not only checks for a GIR
library but also for a symbol defined in that library.
+ New API: Package.checkSymbol(), similar to
Package.requireSymbol() but does not exit if the symbol was not
found. Use this to support older versions of a GIR library with
fallback functionality.
+ New API: System.dumpHeap(), for debugging only. Prints the
state of the JS engine's heap to standard output. Takes an
optional filename parameter which will dump to a file instead
if given.
+ Fixes in preparation for SpiderMonkey 52.
+ Misc fixes.
+ Bugs fixed: bgo#775868, bgo#781882, bgo#781882, bgo#782065,

+ Syntax enhancements.
+ Various API additions.
+ Backwards-incompatible changes:
- It is now a syntax error to declare the same variable twice
with "let" or "const" in the same scope. Existing code may

an undefined property, and this causes some false positives.
You can turn this warning off by setting
GJS_DISABLE_EXTRA_WARNINGS=1.

"for (let i in imports) {...}") you will now get the names of
any built-in modules that have previously been imported.

+ New standard library module: Intl - Locale-sensitive formatting
and string comparison.
+ New behaviour:
- -0 and +0 are now considered equal as Map keys and Set
values.
- On typed arrays, numerical indexed properties ignore the
prototype object:
Int8Array.prototype[20] = 'foo';(new Int8Array(32))[20] == 0.
