===========================
1.16.3 - September 24, 2025
===========================
- Log messages to the logd service on Android, instead of using
the standard error stream.
- Fix the build with CMake 4.0 and newer.
=========================
1.16.2 - February 6, 2025
=========================
- Fix ABI break accidentally introduced in the 1.16.2 release.
=========================
1.16.1 - January 21, 2025
=========================
- Add support for non-discrete gamepad button values. This allows
representing button pressure sensitivity for devices with analog
button inputs.
=======================
1.16.0 - March 21, 2024
=======================
- This version does not contain changes over the 1.15.2 development release.
=========================
1.15.2 - January 25, 2024
=========================
- Allow resetting the fullscreen client to a null pointer.
- Fix usage of the _wpe_loader_interface with the static loader.
====================
1.15.1 - May 8, 2023
====================
- New API to override the default to override the default implementation
for subprocess launch and termination.
- New API for handling pointer lock events.
- Fix build failures with certain C library versions.
- Properly handle the EGL library when available without a pkg-config
module file present.
========================
1.13.3 - August 11, 2022
========================
- Modify the gamepad API to pass the wpe_gamepad_provider when creating
new gamepad instances, and the associated wpe_gamepad_provider_get_backend()
accessor.
- Restrict the range of values allowed for the device scaling factor, which
prevents both divisions by zero and impossibly big graphics buffers.
- Fix pasteboard to use the generic interface by default.
- Fix memory allocation to always abort execution on failure.
=====================
1.13.2 - May 16, 2022
=====================
- New API to configure the target refresh rate of view backends.
=====================
1.13.1 - May 12, 2022
=====================
- New API to provide input events to be treated by WebKit as gamepad inputs.
- New WPE_ENABLE_XKB build option, enabled by default, which can be used to
completely avoid usage of libxkbcommon.
- Allow libwpe to be built as a static library. The rest of the code
linked with the static library must provide the _wpe_loader_interface
symbol, as dlopen() will not be used.
- Allow building libwpe within a larger CMake project.
- Update the required Meson version to 0.55.0
=======================
1.11.1 - August 4, 2021
=======================
- New API to handle requests initiated by web content to (un)fullscreen web
views.
- Support building on Windows.
========================
1.9.1 - January 18, 2021
========================
- Improve the Meson build system to allow using libwpe as a subproject.
=====================
1.7.1 - July 29, 2020
=====================
- New build configuration system based on Meson. The existing CMake-based
system is still maintained, and both produce the same outputs.
- Hidden visibility is now used by default for symbols, and only those
belonging to the public API are exported.
=====================
1.3.1 - June 17, 2019
=====================
- Fix WebKit build issue due to usage of angle-bracketed includes, when
WPEBackend-fdo 1.3.1 is also installed.
===================
1.3.0 - May 8, 2019
===================
- New API to set the device scaling factor. Backends and WebKit embedders
can use this to e.g. support HiDPI displays.
- New API to to obtain the root accessibility object for a view backend.
- Fixed memory overallocation when setting pasteboard contents.
=========================
1.1.0 - December 13, 2018
=========================
- Support building libwpe on Windows.
- New API for observing and setting the view backend state.
- Added a new wpe_renderer_backend_egl_get_platform() function which can
be used to obtain a value which can be passed to eglGetPlatformDisplay()
and eglGetPlatformDisplayEXT().
- Marked old function names containing the "backend" word as deprecated.
The symbols are still available, but it is encouraged to use the new
versions, e.g. prefer wpe_get_major_version() instead of
wpe_backend_get_major_version().
- Marked function table struct parameters passed to some API functions
as "const".
- Fixed headers so including <wpe-egl.h> results in <wpe.h> being included
automatically in the correct order.
- Make instantiation of backends more robust by checking the validity of
interface pointers obtained from the backend.
=======================
1.0.0 - August 21, 2018
=======================
This release changes the API version to 0.2, and introduces the following
changes and features:
- The library is now called libwpe to avoid confusion. The WPEBackend name
used previously seemed to indicate that the library implemented a WPE
backend. The new libwpe name better reflects that it contains code needed
by the WPE WebKit port.
- The libwpe library now uses the libtool versioning convention.
- Handle conversion of keysyms to Unicode inside libwpe. This allowed to
remove he "unicode" member from keyboard event structs, and removing
wpe_input_key_mapper/wpe_input_key_mapper_interface.
- New field in event structs to specify keyboard modifiers.
- New API for keymap and composition handling based on libxkbcommon.
====================
0.2.0 - July 9, 2018
====================
This is a backwards-compatible release, which adds the following features:
- New API to set and query the backend implementation library being used.
- New API to query the version library, both with macros at build time,
and functions at runtime.
- Trying to use a backend implementation library which does not provide
a "load_object" callback will produce a meaningful error instead of
silently failing.
====================
0.1 - April 26, 2018
====================
- Initial release
