They + combine the operations of xkb_state_key_get_syms() and + xkb_keysym_to_utf{8,32}(), and provide a nicer interface for it + (espcially for multiple-keysyms-per-level). + +- The xkb_state_key_get_utf{8,32}() functions now apply Control + transformation: when the Control modifier is active, the string + is converted to an appropriate control character. + This matches the behavior of libX11's XLookupString(3), and + required by the XKB specification: + http://www.x.org/releases/current/doc/kbproto/xkbproto.html#Interpreting_the_Control_Modifier + + https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=75892 + +- The consumed modifiers for a key are now calculated similarly + to libX11. The previous behavior caused a bug where Shift would + not cancel an active Caps Lock. + +- Make xkbcommon-x11 work with the keymap reported by the XQuartz + X server. + + https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=75798 + +- Reduce memory usage during keymap compilation some more. + +- New API: + xkb_state_key_get_consumed_mods() + xkb_state_key_get_utf8() + xkb_state_key_get_utf32() + +- Deprecated API: + XKB_MAP_COMPILE_PLACEHOLDER, XKB_MAP_NO_FLAGS + use XKB_KEYMAP_NO_FLAGS instead. + +- Bug fixes. + libxkbcommon 0.4.0 ================== -- cgit v1.2.1
