**************
|
|
|
|
The GNUstep Base Library, version 1.24.8, is now available.
|
|
|
|
1.1 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).
|
|
|
|
There is more information available at the GNUstep homepage at
|
|
`http://www.gnustep.org'.

|
|
1.2 Noteworthy changes in version `1.24.8'
|
|
==========================================
|
|
|
|
* Performance optimisations (particularly in the use of tiny string
|
|
objects by the new objc runtime on 64bit systems).
|
|
|
|
* Thread naming and logging of threads by NSLog() has been made
|
|
consistent with the latest OSX releases, making debugging of
|
|
multithreaded code a little easier.
|
|
|
|
* Sergei Golovin has added NSURLConnection regression tests (while
|
|
fixing a few bugs there).
|
|
|
|
* As usual, this release also contains an update to include the most
|
|
recent international timezone data.
|
|
|
|
* Various other bugfixes.
|
|
