1.2 Noteworthy changes in version '1.28.0'
==========================================
Aside from an assortment of bugfixes, this release includes a lot of
improvements for Android support as well as numerous new classes and
improvements for Windows support as well as numerous new classes and
methods.
* Expose GNU TLS wrappers and add methods to get certificate expiry.
* Improve thread safety when using zombies, particularly on
statup/shutdown.
* Improvements for Ukrainian localization.
* Decreased ICU requirements to 49 to support Windows 2000.
* Simplifications and fixes in GSPrivateSymbolPath().
* GSMime improvements (word encoding specifier, utf-8 improvements
encoding quoted words with multibyte characters)
* NSJSONSerialization fixes for codepoints over 0x7f.
* NSCharacterSet support for URL*AllowedCharacterSet and declarations
for new character sets.
* NSString implementations for new methods
stringByRemovingPercentEncoding/
stringByAddingPercentEncodingWithAllowedCharacterSet:.
* Fixed a crash in gdomap when an invalid hostname is given for the
-M option.
* In NSString.m, removed functions urldecode() and ishex() which were
mistakenly neither namespaced nor declared static and thus could
have conflicted with non-library code.
* Fixed libdispatch configuration switch so -enable-libdispatch works
correctly; correctly checking for HAVE_LIBDISPATCH_RUNLOOP.
* Updated libdispatch runloop integration so it is compatible with
Swift's corelibs libdispatch release (from
github.com/apple/swift-corelibs-libdispatch). The libdispatch must
be compiled with INSTALL_PRIVATE_HEADERS=YES.
* In NSThread, spinlocks implemented using builtins to be able to
target platforms without pthread_spin_lock(), such as Android
targeting API level < 24.
* In NSLog on Android, send logs to syslog.
* Implementation of NSOrderedSet.
* When ./configuring, link against libandroid on Android.
* In NSBundle, allow integrating with Android asset manager using
+[NSBundle setJavaAssetManager:withJNIEnv:], enabling use of
mainBundle's pathForResource:ofType:, -URLForResource:ofType: and
similar; referencing Info.plist if it exists in Android assets; use
of NSFileManager's fileExistsAtPath: et al and
isReadableFileAtPath:; reading files using NSFileHandle APIs; use
of NSDirectoryEnumerator to enumerate Android assets from the main
bundle.
* In NSBundle, localization support on Android.
* In NSProcessInfo, automatic initialization on Android using a fake
executable path (/data/data/<app identifier>/Resources).
* In NSData, improvements in reading Android assets.
* Various improvements in the mechanism to report memory usage of
individual objects.
* Skeletal implementation of NSUbiquitousKeyValueStore.
* Implementation of NSByteCountFormatter.
* Fixes to writing large HTTPS requests (GSSocketStream,
NSURLProtocol).
* In gdomap.c, fix detection of local networks.
* In NSArray's -removeObjectsInArray:, prevent some crashes.
* In GSTLS, avoid setting session priority twice.
* In NSFileHandle, fix so that setting certificate information does
not discard any other options already set.
* In GSXML's -fatalErrorFunction, use the correct function to get the
line number.
* In NSOperation's _execute, ensure lock gets released on an error by
surrounding with NS_DURING.
* Generics support in NSHashTable.
* Implementation of NSProgress.
* Skeleton implementation of NSURLComponents.
* In NSSortDescriptor, added
-sortDescriptorWithKey:ascending:descending:.
* In NSOperationQueue, added -addOperationWithBlock.
* In NSFileManager, added
-URLForDirectory:inDomain:appropriateForURL:create:error: and
-enumeratorAtURL:includingPropertiesForKeys:options:errorHandler:.
Also added NSItemReplacementDirectory constant, and updated stub
implementation for -URLForDirectory:shouldCreate:error:. Added
-initWithDirectoryPath:... with additional parameters skipHidden
and errorHandler.
* In NSDictionary, fixed keysSortedByValueUsingComparator:.
* Moved NSFileWrapper from -gui to -base.
* Added NSFilePresenter, NSFileVersion and NSFileCoordinator.
* Added NSPersonComponents and NSPersonNameComponentsFormatter.
* Added units of measurement classes such as NSUnit, NSMeasurement,
NSMeasurementFormatter, NSEnergyFormatter, NSLengthFormatter,
NSMassFormatter.
* In NSUnit, support for NSUnitArea, NSUnitConcentrationMass,
NSUnitDispersion, NSUnitElectricCharge, NSUnitIlluminance,
NSUnitElectricCurrent, NSUnitElectricPotentionDifference,
NSElectricResistance, NSUnitMass, NSUnitEnergy, NSUnitFrequency,
NSUnitPower, NSUnitSpeed, NSUnitFuelEfficiency, NSUnitPressure,
NSUnitVolume, NSUnitLength.
* Support for data directory on Android introduces
GSInitializeProcessAndroid and makes use of the path returned by
Context.getFilesDir() as the basis for storing data (e.g.
NSUserDefaults) and when querying for directory paths
(NSLibraryDirectory, NSApplicationSupportDirectory, etc.).
* Placeholder NSScript* classes. Added NSUserActivity,
NSObjectScripting, NSHFSFileTypes, NSAppleEventManager and
NSAppleEventDescriptor.
* Added NSDateInterval intersectionWithDateInterval:.
* Added NSBackgroundActivityScheduler.
* Added NSISO8601DateFormatter and NSMetadataAttributes.
* Added NSOrtogrpahy and NSLinguisticTagger.
* Added NSExtensionItem, NSExtensionContext,
NSExtensionRequestHandling, and NSItemProvider and
NSItemProviderReadingWriting.
* Updated timezone info for NSTimeZones.
* On Android, support for NSTemporaryDirectory to use
Context.getCacheDir(), and cleaning it up in
GSInitializeProcessAndroid() given there is no support for temp
directory before Android API 26. Also used with NSCachesDirectory
+ NSUserDomainMask.
* NSXPCConnection fixes.
* NSException symbolication support using libunwind (used when
backtrace() is unavailable).
* Travis build improvements to use new runloop integration and
gnustep-2.0 runtime.
* In NSKeyValueObserving, implement two missing methods for NSArray:
-addObserver:options:context: and
-removeObserver:fromObjectsAtIndexes:forKeyPath:.
* Updated NSUUID to use instancetype.
* Added support for NSDate constants in NSPredicate.
* Fixed a NSTimer bug with blocks.
* In GSTLS, do not put password in the hash key of the credentials,
and to avoid logging it when debugging is on.
* Improvements in NSConcreteHashTable and NSConcreteMapTable.
* In various places, switch away from deprecated
CREATE_AUTORELEASE_POOL() to use the ARC-compatible ENTER_POOL and
LEAVE_POOL macros.
* When building the list of hosts to be probed to see if they have
gdomap servers, fix code to include those explicitly defined in the
config file. Add -S option to list the addresses of the known
gdomap servers.
* Backward compatibility fix for ICU 65.
* Update GSPrivateSymbolPath() so that, on the path where
LINKER_GETSYMBOL is not available, we attempt to lookup classes
using the prefix ._OBJC_CLASS_ for the 2.0 ABI (earlier ABIs use a
prefix of __objc_class_name_ for the class definition.
* Fix parsing of NSURLResponse content type header.
* Fix for class lookup when using the 2.0 ABI.
* Fixed NSURLComponents setURL: throwing exceptions when URL didn't
have all expected parts caused by rangeOfString: throwing for nil
values.
* Added NSURLQueryItem implementation.
Not every bugfix, improvement or a new feature will be listed here.
* Reading and setting File Creation Date attribute on Windows.
* Added new 'ASSIGNMUTABLECOPY()' macro for consistency with
'ASSIGNCOPY()'.
* Replaced character set data headers for URLs with loading these
from a standard data source, and updated bitmap representation to
use much less space for character sets residing wholly in the base
plane, such as the URL charsets (given they are purely ASCII).
* Updated character set data with newer Unicode data set.
* '[NSURLProtocol -initWithRequest:cachedResponse:client:]' will now
retain the client up until the last message is sent to it, which
improves compatibility with OS X.
* Percent-escaping code in 'NSURL' simplified.
* Removed mixed ABI support.
* Use of Apple runtime now assumes non-fragile ABI (which is true on
modern systems).
* Improve typing on method implementation pointers in some classes.
* In 'NSHTTPCookie', rewritten code for extracting individual cookies
from the HTTP header.
* In 'NSKeyedArchiver', implement secure coding methods.
* New methods in 'NSDateComponents'.
* Improvements in 'NSCalendar' and 'NSLocale' for calendar locale and
'NSDateComponents'.
* In 'NSFileManager', use 'utimensat()' to set file modification
date, if available.
* Correctly stop parsing number being decoded in
'NSJSONSerialization' when encountering a number with an invalid
exponent.
* Improve OS X compatibility for 'NSURLQueryItem' initializers.
* For 'NSFileManager', in 'changeFileAttributes', implement setting
creation date for Unix-like systems. Implement reading the
creation date if a supported method was detected.
* Support reading Android assets from the main bundle in
'NSInputStream'.
* Support Android assets directories in 'NSBundle' and
'NSFileManager'.
* Implement '-[NSXMLParser initWithStream:]'.
* Allow clearer choice between 'sloppy' 'GSSloppyXMLParser' used in
'NSXMLParser' and the libxml2-based 'GSStrictXMLParser'.
* Fix building Win32 implementations for 'GSFileHandle' and
'NSMessagePort' with nonfragile ABI.
* Use 'NSNumber' and not 'NSString' in '-[NSUserDefaults
setBool:forKey:]'.

overwriting and creating files with respect to file attributes
(owners, creation timestamp, etc).
* Improve 'NSLog' output on Android.
* Use 'instancetype' in 'NSURLRequest' header.
* Define 'NSAttributedStringKey' and 'NSNotificationName'.
* Add new 'NSURL' methods.
* In 'GSMime', have '-contentFile' check the 'Content-Type' header
before checking 'Content-Disposition'.
* Fix a bug linking with WEAK symbols where binutils 2.3.5 would fail
to link due to not all expected symbols being exported.
* New 'plutil' utility.
* Implementation of '[NSData rangeOfData:options:range:]' which finds
the 'NSRange' in which the passed data occurs.
* Change 'ENTER_POOL'/'LEAVE_POOL' so they no longer wrap the
enclosed code in a loop, enabling use in some loops.
* New 10.5 methods in 'NSRunLoop'/'NSURLConnection'.
* Improve compatibility when building with ICU 68.
* Fix compiling libdispatch integration of 'NSRunLoop' on Windows.

the 'configure' flag '--host=x86_64-pc-windows'. Use of an MSYS2
shell without '-devel' packages is recommended.
* Implementation of 'NSURLSession' and related classes. This adds
some dependencies on more recent versions of 'libcurl',
'libdispatch' etc.
* Fix initializing 'NSUUID' from a string.
* Disable use of 'libcurl' if its headers are not found.
* In 'NSURLProtocol', continue writing data if not all of it was
written.
* Fix use of GnuTLS under MinGW by using 'send/recv' rather than
'read/write'.
* Add support for libobjc2 runtime on Windows.
