Generate Haskell bindings for GObject Introspection capable libraries. This includes most notably Gtk+, but many other libraries in the GObject ecosystem provide introspection data too.

Changes

0.21.3

  • Do not add nodes in overrides if a node with the same name already exists, fixes #171.

0.21.2

  • Do not free Ptr Word8 types after performing the call to C, since they only get passed along. Otherwise one could easily double free in functions such as GdkPixbuf.pixbufNewFromData.

  • Fix a leak on optional ScopeTypeAsync callbacks.

0.20.4

  • Improve marshaling of array arguments with no specified size. This improves the generated bindings for various functions, for instance GObject.signalEmitv.

  • Replace the enable-overloading flags with a explicit CPP check of the version of haskell-gi-overloading we are being compiled against, see issue 124 for the rationale.

0.20.3

  • Make the overloading code protected by a CPP conditional, depending on ENABLE_OVERLOADING being defined. See issue 107.

  • Wrap boxed structs/unions as transient ManagedPtrs in callbacks. This is needed to fix a number of issues, including issue 96 and issue 97.

0.20.2

  • Fixes for GHC 8.2.1.

0.20.1

  • gtk-doc parser and haddock generator: while by no means perfect, now the autogenerated bindings come with some reasonable autogenerated documentation.

  • Many bugfixes. A particularly important one is for issue 82, which made compilation of gi-glib fail, for the latest version of gobject-introspection.
