<heading>Version 1.22.0</heading>
<p>A new stable release with many updates and changes. In addition
to many new classes and methods, there is now a regression test
framework included in the base release.
</p>
<p>In addtion, base now
supports and uses the Objective-C 2.0 runtime API from Apple and
we encourage anyone programming with GNUstep to move to using this
new runtime and the new functionality it supports. Note however,
there is currently no compiler/runtime combination that completely
supports the Objective-C 2.0 specification, but we would
recommend the following:
</p>
<list>
<item>gcc (pre 4.6) and GNUstep libobjc is the preferred
compiler/runtime for stability (best tested)</item>
<item>gcc 4.6 and GNU libobjc for experimental ObjC2 with
garbage collection but without blocks</item>
<item>clang and GNUstep libobjc2 for experimental ObjC2 without
garbage collection but with blocks.</item>
</list>
