We are still using the old GtkStyle APIs, that should be gone by the next release. - Add support for Mozilla-style JS fullscreen API. - Add support for the viewport metatag. - Many other bugfixes. ================ WebKitGTK+ 1.3.7 ================ What's new in WebKitGTK+ 1.3.7? - Fix error pages template's not being filled properly. - Fix context menu activation through keyboard. - Add automatic garbage collection for most GObject DOM objects (all those that are actually in the DOM tree). This gets rid of most of the leaks when using the bindings. - Add an Inspector API to inspect a DOM node. - Tons of a11y bugfixes. - Tons of fixes for the in-tree SoupCache, should work much better now. - Many other bugfixes. ================ WebKitGTK+ 1.3.6 ================ What's new in WebKitGTK+ 1.3.6? - Update to compile with GTK+ 3.x 2.91.4. - Many, many other bugfixes. ================ WebKitGTK+ 1.3.5 ================ What's new in WebKitGTK+ 1.3.5? - Add a HTTP cache implementation. This will be eventually integrated in libsoup itself, but for now it can be accessed from WebKit through the WebKitSoupCache APIs. - Updated to work with GTK+ 3.x 2.91.1. - Add frame-flattening support, used by some mobile browser sto merge all frames in a page into a continuous view. - Many other bugfixes. ================ WebKitGTK+ 1.3.4 ================ What's new in WebKitGTK+ 1.3.4? - File reader/writer APIs are now enabled. - The javascript JIT is now enabled by default on ARM. - Clipboard data is no longer lost when the process exists. - Image DnD support. - GSettings support to save/restore Web Inspector settings. - Add WebSocket support, now enabled by default. - Added WebKitWebView::frame-created signal, emitted when a frame other than the main frame is created in a view. - Added WebKitWebView::view-mode, holding information about how the view is being presented. See the property documentation and http://www.w3.org/TR/view-mode/ for details. - Fullscreen support for HTML5 media player. - Identify as WebKit/Safari in Google domains when enable-site-specific-quirks is activated. Otherwise we'll get a degraded user experience due to their poor UA detection algorihtms. - Added simple media playback options in the context menu for the media elements. - Update (and require) to work with gobjet-introspection 0.9.5. - Updated to work with GTK+ 3.x 2.90.7 when in GTK+ 3.x mode. - Make --disable-jit actually work. - Add --enable-opcode-stats configure flag. When enabled, statistics about opcode generation will be printed by JSC. - Many a11y fixes, particularly in the AtkText interface. - CSS box shadows render much faster in many cases. - Many other bugfixes. ================ WebKitGTK+ 1.3.3 ================ What's new in WebKitGTK+ 1.3.3? - Fixes to compile with latest GTK+ 2.90.x. - Add support for dropping content in WebKitWebViews. - Many other bugfixes. ================ WebKitGTK+ 1.3.2 ================ What's new in WebKitGTK+ 1.3.2? *** This release is an ABI break *** The library has been renamed to libwebkitgtk, so you'll need to recompile your applications when upgrading to 1.3.2. - Add support for GTK+ 3.x. A new configure flag, --with-gtk, has been added, which allows to control which GTK+ version you want to build against. The default value is '2.0', for GTK+ 2.x support. With '3.0' the library will be compiled against GTK+ 3.x (2.90.4 or newer required). In the 3.x mode the .pc file has been renamed from webkit-X.X.pc to webkitgtk-X.X.pc, so you'll need to update your autotools setup accordingly. - Many fixes for the DOM bindings, including support to dispatch events to any Node through webkit_event_target_dispatch_event. - Added a 'inner-node' property to WebKitHitTestResult, carrying the DOM node where the hit test happened. - Many DnD fixes, including a fix for the infamous hang-of-death while dragging the mouse. - Support for <input type="range">. - Many other bugfixes. ================ WebKitGTK+ 1.3.1 ================ What's new in WebKitGTK+ 1.3.1? - Initial support for GObject DOM bindings. Present in this release is a substantial subset of the basic DOM APIs (Document, HTML elements, Node, etc) including access to the DOM events through GObject signals. Keep in mind that all the APIs are still unstable, and will probably be subject to changes before the next stable release. - Add webkit_web_back_forward_list_clear, to completely clear the BackForward list. - Lots of improvements in DOM clipboard and drag-drop access. - Add support for GTK+ key themes. - Significant improvements in a11y, including improved role support and many bugfixes. ================= WebKitGTK+ 1.1.90 ================= What's new in WebKitGTK+ 1.1.90? - Display server side messages during HTTP auth, since they sometimes contain important information for the authentication process. - Reduce creation time for WebKitWebView widgets by reusing dictionary structs used for spell-checking instead of creating a new one for each instance. - Implement WebKitWebView::geolocation-policy-decision-requested, emitted when a frame inside the WebView wants to get its position through geolocation. - Add WebKitWebSettings::enable-spatial-navigation to control whether Spatial Navigation is enabled or not. Spatial Navigation allows the user to move through the elements in a page using only the keyboard; this is similar to caret browsing, but with less focus on accessibility since instead of presenting the exact layout of the page to the user a more "logical" way of browsing through its contents is allowed. A specification of this feature can be seen at http://www.w3.org/TR/WICD/#current-focus-point-algorithm - Add a new build option, --enable-fast-mobile-scrolling. At the moment this only disables fixed backgrounds when there are no other fixed elements in a page, since they generally make scrolling very slow and thus are a big burden in some mobile environments. - GTK+ Input Method support has received a big overhaul, and most of them should work pretty well now. - All known redraw issues in the plugin support (especially with the Java plugin) have been fixed. - Various fixes to the MediaPlayer code to improve responsiveness and avoid lagging on position reporting. - Lots of bugfixes and other improvements. ================= WebKitGTK+ 1.1.22 ================= What's new in WebKitGTK+ 1.1.22? - Preliminary support for Java plugins. Basic functionality is there, but there are still a few rough edges. Also newly introduced is a new WebKitWebSetting, 'enable-java-applet', which controls whether WebKit will recognize the non-standard <applet> tag. - Add WebKitWebSettings::auto-resize-window; when enabled, WebKit will act upon the DOM methods that change the size and/or position of the window containing a WebView (window.{moveTo, resizeTo, moveBy, resizeBy}). - Add WebKitWebSettings::enable-file-access-from-file-uris; when enabled, each file:// URI will be assigned its own security domain. - Lots of bugfixes, especially in the PageCache support. ================= WebKitGTK+ 1.1.21 ================= What's new in WebKitGTK+ 1.1.21? - New custom-made GStreamer source element that uses the WebCore network layer to download media data; this makes sure any headers and cookies will automatically get added when making requests. - WebKit will now let libsoup know who the first party for a given message is, making it possible to implement accept/deny policies in Soup. - The usual stream of fixes, and improvements ================= WebKitGTK+ 1.1.20 ================= What's new in WebKitGTK+ 1.1.20? - Fixes to the HTML5 Media Player infrastructure to satisfy sites that require cookies, and Referer to be sent; this makes WebKitGTK+ able to support the new HTML5 support added to Youtube, and Vimeo, for instance. - Windowless plugin support is finally here, making it possible to get plugins to behave on various web pages. - The usual stream of fixes, and improvements ================= WebKitGTK+ 1.1.19 ================= What's new in WebKitGTK+ 1.1.19? - Improvements to AtkText implementation - RGBA colormap support has been added - Improvements to the HTML5 media player - Crashes related to clipboard handling, which were hitting many users and seemed to be random have been fixed ================= WebKitGTK+ 1.1.18 ================= What's new in WebKitGTK+ 1.1.18? - Add methods to set and get a cache model in WebKitGTK+. We offer two possibilites: document viewer (no caches are used) and browser (similar to the previous defaults). - Add WebKitWebSettings::enable-page-cache. Controls whether the Page Cache is enabled or not. For details about what the page cache is and does see http://webkit.org/blog/427/webkit-page-cache-i-the-basics/ The page cache is disabled by default, since the gtk+ port still presents some small bugs when it's enabled. - Add WebKitWebSettings::enable-site-specific-quirks. Controls whether a series of page-specific workarounds are used by WebKit. - Use Content-Encoding support available in libsoup 2.28.2 and newer. - Add WebKitWebSettings::enable-default-context-menu. Controls whether webkitgtk+ will show a default context menu on right click in the view. Note that even with the property set to FALSE right clicks can be handled by the page, either by actions or by ad-hoc in-page context menus. - Make the WebKitWebView::icon-loaded signal carry a string with the favicon's URI. This is an API break, but the signal already had a broken signature and was useless anyway, so it's extremely unlikely that anybody was using it. Also, add the 'icon-uri' property to the view, holding the URI for its current favicon. - Respect Content-Disposition header in downloads (fixes downloads in gmail). - Various accessibility improvements. - Many bugfixes. ================= WebKitGTK+ 1.1.17 ================= What's new in WebKitGTK+ 1.1.17? - New APIs to show and close the web inspector and to inspect an element at the given coordinates. - New property, WebKitWebSettings::tab-key-cycles-through-elements, controls whether TAB is simply interpreted as another keystroke or is used to cycle through the elements in a page. - Many a11y improvements. - The usual amount of random bugfixes. ================= WebKitGTK+ 1.1.16 ================= What's new in WebKitGTK+ 1.1.16? - Add optional support to generate the gobject-introspection gir/typelib files. Enable with --enable-introspection, it's off by default. - Add a new load status value, WEBKIT_LOAD_FAILED, emitted when there's an error during the load process. This is the natural companion to WEBKIT_LOAD_FINISHED, which is only emitted when the load finished succesfuly. - Ensure that keyboard events filtered by GtkIMContext still create the proper DOM events. - Many a11y improvements: caret browsing fixes, expose heading levels, more accessible roles supported, more work in correctly showing the element's ancestry list, improved support for lists, etc. - Many improvements to our media support. - Add a new setting to control DOM pastes (document.execCommand("Paste")) - Many, many bugfixes all over the place. ================= WebKitGTK+ 1.1.15 ================= What's new in WebKitGTK+ 1.1.15? - New API to get the subresources from a WebKitWebDataSource. This provides a way of accessing all the resources that compose the view to which the data source is attached. - A new function, webkit_web_view_get_hit_test_result, which allows to do a 'hit test' on the coordinates specified by a mouse event. A hit test provides context information about that point in the document, like whether it's an image, a link, an input box, etc. - Our DumpRenderTree implementation now supports eventSender, which allows us to run many more LayoutTests and make WebKitGTK+ more stable and feature-complete. - JSNES runs 6x faster: http://trac.webkit.org/changeset/48573 - The usual small improvements and bugfixes. ================= WebKitGTK+ 1.1.14 ================= What's new in WebKitGTK+ 1.1.14? - New API has been added to WebKitWebFrame to allow applying scrollbars policy as requested by web applications to the main frame; if the parent of the WebKitWebView widget is a GtkScrolledWindow, policy is applied by the default handler. - A new API has been added to help dealing with the various resources that are downloaded to compose the final rendering; you can now obtain the source code for a page that is loaded, for instance. - A new property has been added to WebKitWebView to allow setting it to "View Source" mode. - HTML5 database has gained API to manage the individual databases, including usage and quota. - A new signal `resource-request-starting' has been added to the WebKitWebView to allow modification of outgoing requests for every resource. - Connection limit has been increased to 60 total connections, 6 per-host, matching other browsers more closely; this seems to have improved loading time of some sites. - Undo/redo support has been added to editable texts. - The usual stream of small improvements and bug fixes. ================= WebKitGTK+ 1.1.13 ================= What's new in WebKitGTK+ 1.1.13? - GNOME Keyring support was removed in favor of the new Password Manager soup feature; to get exactly the same behavior, applications should use SoupPasswordManagerGNOME. This requires libsoup 2.27.91 or newer. - Several accessibility improvements, including support for testing the a11y infrastructure in our layout tests. - You can now enable/disable HTML5 offline application cache using a new setting added to WebKitWebSettings. - Drag support has landed, meaning you can start playing with HTML5 drag and drop support; drop support is still missing. - A crash with scripts closing windows has been fixed. - Image cursors support has been added. - The usual stream of small improvements and bug fixes. ================= WebKitGTK+ 1.1.12 ================= What's new in WebKitGTK+ 1.1.12? - Fix WebKitSoupAuthDialog to only save passwords in gnome-keyring (if enabled) when authentication succeeds. - Implement a proper size_request method for WebKitWebView. The widget will request the size of the whole page as its size requisition. - Many a11y improvements. - The usual amount of other misc fixes. - WEBKIT_DEBUG variable now accepts channel names in any case again. ================= WebKitGTK+ 1.1.11 ================= What's new in WebKitGTK+ 1.1.11? - WebKit has got a new feature - a XSS auditor, that should improve security; this feature is still experimental, and disabled by default, but applications can enable it using the setting. - The hackish content sniffing code that was beig used to avoid pages requesting downloads instead of displaying content has been replaced by usage of a new Soup feature, which implements proper content sniffing. - More accessibility work, including fixes for problems which were critical for a possible GNOME 2.28 release. - Pasting rich text from other browsers should now work as expected. - The usual amount of misc fixes. ================= WebKitGTK+ 1.1.10 ================= What's new in WebKitGTK+ 1.1.10? - WebKitNetworkRequest has now GObject properties for its URI and the SoupMessage that backs it up. - Fix AtkText methods get_selection and get_n_selections to not use the global selection but only the selection that belongs to the object being used. - Fix a crasher when emitting the a11y signal 'text-caret-moved' in some situations with debug builds. ================ WebKitGTK+ 1.1.9 ================ What's new in WebKitGTK+ 1.1.9? - Scrolling once again received a lot of love, and many subtle problems and bugs were killed, and we now get correct behavior in acid2; a number of smaller improvements are in the queue. - Accessibility keeps gaining better support. On this release a lot of work was done on the AtkText interface implementation. - WebKitNetworkRequest now carries with it all the information regarding the request, not only the URI. This means you will no longer miss headers such as Referer when passing NetworkRequest objects from a callback to webkit_web_frame_load_request. ================ WebKitGTK+ 1.1.8 ================ What's new in WebKitGTK+ 1.1.8? - We found out that WebKitWebHistoryItems were being kept with a reference count of 2 instead of 1 as they should; nobody should be relying on that, but if you hit reference counting problems with items you were creating yourself, this is for you. - You can now copy images from the web page to the clipboard. - Improvements were made to the Plugin handling code. - Scroll events will now be correctly reported to web applications. - You can now embed arbitrary widgets as if it was a plugin, with the new "create-plugin-widget" signal. - The atk_text_get_text_{at,after,before}_offset methods are now implemented for all boundary types except LINE_AFTER and LINE_BEFORE. - The usual stream of minor fixes and improvements, as always. ================ WebKitGTK+ 1.1.7 ================ What's new in WebKitGTK+ 1.1.7? - This release includes a security fix: SVGList::insertItemBefore would not perform a bounds check on the index it was provided, potentially leading to a buffer overflow. - New frame loading properties supersede various load-* signals, and are also accessible in the WebView, for convenience, making this API saner. - JIT is now supported for X86-64 on Linux, and enabled by default! - A regression on webkit_web_view_load_string has been fixed, making it work correctly again when the document uses encodings which may use more than 1 byte per character. - Yet more work has been done to the ATK support, caret browsing support improvements in particular. - Filenames suggested by the Download functionality now correctly use the filename given by the host, if available. - Build fixes for IA64, and AMD64 - gtk-doc support has also improved, and you should now be able to cd WebKit/gtk/docs and type make docs, if you --enable-gtk-doc on configure, as long as you build with srcdir == builddir. - More crashes and other bugs fixed, and small improvements made under the hood. ================ WebKitGTK+ 1.1.6 ================ What's new in WebKitGTK+ 1.1.6? - Several ATK support additions and fixes got landed, with many roles being now implemented, providing better accessibility. - Caret browsing is now available. - Spelling check has been implemented using Enchant; the API is still lacking, and some of the functionality still needs to be improved, though. - Error reporting is now available, with default error pages, and API that allows the application to override the default behavior; localization of those pages is still not supported, but planned. - More crashes and other bugs fixed. ================ WebKitGTK+ 1.1.5 ================ What's new in WebKitGTK+ 1.1.5? - Added gtk-doc support to the build system. It is not fully integrated yet, so some manual tweaking is still needed. - Minimum required GTK+ version is now 2.10. - Added l10n support with gettext. Translations are stored in WebKit/gtk/po/. - Many improvements to the ATK support. It's good enough to provide a basic user experience with Accerciser now, but we'll keep improving it in further releases. - New printing API that allows applications to control and monitor the printing process, when requested by javascript or started by the user. - Many bugfixes. ================ WebKitGTK+ 1.1.4 ================ What's new in WebKitGTK+ 1.1.4? - WebKitWebView gained uri and title properties, deprecating the usage of the title-changed signal. - Basic functionality for HTML5 media tags has been achieved; there are many unimplented methods, and rough edges still, though. - Font rendering received quite some love, with layouting, and memory handling fixes, and at least one less crash. - A new signal, new-window-policy-decision-requested, has been added to WebKitWebView, that makes it possible for the application to correctly decide what to do when new windows are requested. - A bug that made tooltips for consecutive links not update their location was fixed. - Several improvements were made to the HTTP backend, including making it more robust when talking to servers which send bad Content-Type headers. - WebKitWebView now uses the GtkBinding system to handle key events, which means that the user is now able to customize the keys used for various operations, and that many subtle bugs have been fixed. ================ WebKitGTK+ 1.1.3 ================ The 1.1.3 release was just a quick bug fix release, because we made a mistake in library versioning. ================ WebKitGTK+ 1.1.2 ================ What's new in WebKitGTK+ 1.1.2? - Added support for downloads: a new signal, 'download-requested', will be emitted by WebKit when a dowload is requested. On top of that, the download process has been encapsulated in a new object, WebKitDownload, which allows the user to control it or to start new downloads from the client side. - Added webkit_web_view_get_encoding to get the automatic encoding of the current page. - Added GObject properties for 'encoding' and 'custom-encoding'. - Added 'javascript-profiling-enabled' property to the WebInspector, which allows to enable and disable the profiling functionality. - Added API to create and add history items to WebKit's history. - Improved debugging support with WEBKIT_DEBUG environment variable. Most of the settings will only give useful output for debug builds, but WEBKIT_DEBUG=Network will log all HTTP traffic form libsoup to console. See WebCore/platform/gtk/LoggingGtk.cpp for all the options available. - Lots of bugfixes. ================ WebKitGTK+ 1.1.1 ================ What's new in WebKitGTK+ 1.1.1? - ABI compatibility with 1.0.3 was broken, so you will need to recompile your application against 1.1.1 - Support for the CURL backend was dropped, libsoup is the only HTTP backend now. - webkit_get_default_session, to get the SoupSession used internally by WebKit. - 'create-web-view' signal, emitted when the creation of a new window is requested. - 'navigation-policy-decision-requested' signal, emitted when a navigation to another page is requested. - 'mime-type-policy-decision-requested' signal, emitted each time WebKit is about to show a URI with a given MIME type. - Support for the Web Inspector (see http://webkit.org/blog/197/web-inspector-redesign/) - HTTP authentication support, with optional gnome-keyring storage. - New load functions: webkit_web_view_open, webkit_web_view_load_uri and webkit_web_view_load_request. The old webkit_web_view_load_string and webkit_web_view_load_html_string are now deprecated. - webkit_web_view_reload_bypass_cache - webkit_web_view_{get,set}_custom_encoding, to override the encoding of the current page. - Improved stability and lots of bugfixes. |
