What is the GNUstep Base Library?

The GNUstep Base Library is a library of general-purpose, non-graphical
|
|
|
|
|
Objective C objects. For example, it includes classes for strings,
|
|
|
|
|
object collections, byte streams, typed coders, invocations,
|
|
|
|
|
notifications, notification dispatchers, moments in time, network ports,
|
|
|
|
|
remote object messaging support (distributed objects), and event loops.
|

|
|
|
|
|
It provides functionality that aims to implement the non-graphical

|
|
|
portion of the OpenStep standard (the Foundation library).

Noteworthy changes in version `1.12.0'

There have been a number of API changes and several methods have been
|
|
|
|
|
depreciated in this release. Although current GNUstep programs that use
|
|
|
|
|
these methods will still work in this version, there are enough changes
|
|
|
|
|
that a new library version was considered useful. See the release notes
|
|
|
|
|
for more details

|
User defaults were restructured to create the defaults lazily and
|
|
|
|
|
can be set to not write to an external file at all, for developers who
|
|
|
|
|
wish to use the library as a stand-alone library or in other situations
|
|
|
|
|
where using external resources is not desired.
