@@ -6,11 +6,38 @@ Noteworthy changes in version 0.4.1 (unreleased) * gpgme_op_verify and gpgme_op_decrypt_verify don't return a status summary anymore. Use gpgme_get_sig_status to retrieve the individual stati. + * GpgmeIOCb changed from a void function to a function returning a + GpgmeError value. However, it will always return 0, so you can + safely ignore the return value. + + * A new I/O callback event GPGME_EVENT_START has been added. The new + requirement is that you must wait until this event until you are + allowed to call the I/O callback handlers previously registered for + this context operation. Calling I/O callback functions for this + context operation before the start event happened is unsafe because + it can lead to race conditions in a multi-threaded environment. + + * The idle function feature has been removed. It was not precisely + defined in a multi-threaded environment and is obsoleted by the + user I/O callback functions. If you still need a simple way to + call something while waiting on one or multiple asynchronous + operations to complete, don't set the HANG flag in gpgme_wait (note + that this will return to your program more often than the idle + function did). + + * gpgme_wait can return NULL even if hang is true, if an error + occurs. In that case *status contains the error code. + * Interface changes relative to the 0.4.0 release: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +GpgmeIOCb CHANGED: Return type from void to GpgmeError. +GpgmeEventIO CHANGED: New event type (all numbers changed). gpgme_key_get_string_attr CHANGED: Don't handle GPGME_ATTR_IS_SECRET. gpgme_op_verify CHANGED: Drop R_STAT argument. gpgme_op_decrypt_verify CHANGED: Drop R_STAT argument. +gpgme_wait CHANGED: Can return NULL even if hang is true. +GpgmeIdleFunc REMOVED +gpgme_register_idle REMOVED ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Noteworthy changes in version 0.4.0 (2002-12-23) |
