Changes in 1.1.0 since 1.0.2:
* Fixed crash with invalid <Name> tag in a menu.
* Added new API menu_cache_app_get_generic_name() to get generic
name for application.
* Fixed potential access violation, use runtime user dir instead of tmp dir.
It limits libmenu-cache compatibility to menu-cached >= 0.7.0.
* Directory $XDG_DATA_HOME/applications will be created if it does not
exist so it will be monitored in any case.
* Fixed issue when subdirectories added would be skipped in monitoring.
* Fixed potential file descriptors leak.
* Reduced inactivity timer to 6 seconds (from 600 seconds).
* Fixed an issue with multiple daemons started: test if daemon is already
running on socket before killing old socket file.
* Fixed 100% CPU load by menu-cached due to invalid dup2() call.
Changes in 1.0.2 since 1.0.1:
* Fixed crash in menu-cached if cache regeneration fails.
* Fixed 100% CPU load by menu-cached in some rare conditions.
* Invalid empty <DefaultLayout> should be ignored, see specification.
* Fixed crash in menu-cache-gen on <MergeFile type="parent"/> if no file
to merge found.
* Fixed showing empty Other menu in some cases.
* The option --disable-debug is now default, instead of --enable-debug.
Changes in 1.0.1 since 1.0.0:
* Fixed crash on generating menu with both tags <DefaultAppDirs/> and
<KDELegacyDirs/> present.
* Fixed crash when menu-cache-gen ran manually without CACHE_GEN_VERSION.
* Fixed crash in menu-cache-gen on <Filename/> in menu layout with
<OnlyUnallocated/> tag present.
* Fixed incorrect processing of <Merge type="files"> in menu-cache-gen.
* Added safeguards against environment variables containing newlines.
* Fixed case when cache was not updated while it should, it was claimed
to be fixed in 1.0.0 but apparently fix was incomplete.
* Fixed ignored <Filename> tags inside of <Layout> tag.
* Fixed memory corruption in scanning <LegacyDir> addressed directory.
Changes in 1.0.0 since 0.7.0:
* Added new cache file format generation support with changes:
- invisible directories (NoDisplay=true or empty) can be put into the
cache too but with flag (not displayed) set;
- content of TryExec field is added to contents of cache file;
- the working dir to execute application is added to cache file;
- list of categories is added to contents of cache file;
- list of keywords is added to contents of cache file.
* Fixed crash in menu_cache_item_get_file_dirname() for a non-existent
file (might happen for directories without .directory file).
* Made menu_cache_app_get_working_dir() actually work.
* Made menu_cache_lookup() faster (do not load cache immediately but on
idle instead).
* Eliminated secondary cache reload in menu_cache_lookup_sync() - server
response in such case will be ahead of idle reload (since main thread
is in wait ATM) and therefore idle call will be supressed.
* Added new API menu_cache_app_get_categories() to get list of categories
for the application.
* Added new APIs for applications: menu_cache_list_all_for_category() and
menu_cache_list_all_for_keyword() that return list of applications
matching criteria.
* Fixed problem if some string in the desktop entry file contained a new
line character. That broke cache file format, now it's replaced with
a "\n" string and converted back into new line in the library.
* Fixed bug when cache was not updated while it should: check if the last
modification time for directory is more recent than modification time
for cache may not always be valid - some .desktop entry might be just
changed by update and that will lead to falsed cache contents.
* Added Log Domain "Menu-Cache" for better library logging messages.
Changes in 0.7.0 since 0.6.1:
* Added bit of support for multiple supported cache file versions, using
CACHE_GEN_VERSION environment variable to the generator. This may be
useful in future when 1.2 cache file version will be implemented.
* The menu-cache-gen libexec binary is rewritten from scratch. No that
Red Hat / GNOME code anymore. New menu-cache-gen uses libfm-extra XML
manipulation functions therefore it is required now for build.
* Added a parameter for menu-cached to specify socket path instead of
calculating one, that is definitely more safe.
* Libmenu-cache handles menu-cached failure more gracefully now, don't
tries to restart it so fast that it clones many times.
* Fixed menu-cached crash after menu-cache-gen failure.
Changes in 0.6.1 since 0.6.0:
* Fixed invalid memory access after cache reload.
* A little cleanup of dist tarball: removed unused files menu-cache.h and
libmenu-cache-uninstalled.pc.in.
Changes in 0.6.0 since 0.5.1:
* Fixed few GLIB compatibility issues.
* Changed default tarball format to XZ instead of GZIP.
* Fixed build without --enable-gtk-doc.
* Fixed crash on access root_dir with empty cache (no menu).
* Allowed menu_cache_get_desktop_env_flag() accept colon-separated list
in accordance to freedesktop.org specification for the environment
variable XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP.
* The case if user deleted cache file is handled: it will be regenerated.
Changes in 0.5.1 since 0.5.0:
* Fixed build on systems where MAXSYMLINKS isn't defined.
* Fixed menu-cached crash in some rare cases.
Changes in 0.5.0 since 0.4.1:
* Added a possibility to include NoDisplay files into cache file. This
can be achieved by adding suffix '+hidden' to requested name in call
to menu_cache_lookup(). The hidden items will be returned along with
visible ones by any API that returns listing of cache directory. The
menu_cache_app_get_is_visible() API will return FALSE for hidden item
with any DE mask passed to the API.
* New macro MENU_CACHE_CHECK_VERSION() to test version of library.
* Added new APIs: menu_cache_find_item_by_id, menu_cache_find_child_by_id,
menu_cache_find_child_by_name.
* Two bugfixes for crashes, and for some another bugs.
Changes in 0.4.1 since 0.4.0:
* Minor bugfix, the resulting tar file was not complete.
Changes in 0.4.0 since 0.3.3:
* The libmenu-cache is made thread-safe. Thread-unsafe APIs are marked
as deprecated now and should be never used in any multithreaded
application.
* Added creation of HTML developers documentation. It is triggered by
configure script option --enable-gtk-doc.
* The libmenu-cache is made more responsible by moving some time-critical
operations into thread. Also it preloads saved cache file if it
exists so it is available near instantly after menu_cache_lookup().
Caller still will get updates by adding notifier to the cache.
* Added automatic shutdown of menu-cached server after some inactivity
timeout (i.e. all clients were unregistered).
* Fixed few memory problems (referencing errors and memory leaks).
* Fix for bug #3501347: use g_get_tmp_dir() instead of hardcoded "/tmp".
* The libmenu-cache ABI bumped to 2.
