Gtk+ 3.2 发布

Gtk+ 3.2 发布

最新版本GTk+——GTk+ 3.2—— 正式发布。 此款新发行不仅包含了许多小的、不太引人注目的更新，还包含了对两个非常重要新特性的实验性支持。其一，是使用HTML5在浏览器内运行GTk+应用程序 的能力；其二，是对Wayland显示服务器的初始支持。GTk+ 3.2 引入了许多更小的特性，用户可以马上从中受益。CSS主题支持被改进了；GtkFileChooser（Gtk文件选择器）被修整 了；GtkFontSelection（Get字体选择器）被一个新的GtkFontChooser 小工具集所取代；一些新的小工具也已经被引入。

Gtk+ 3.2 中对HTML5的支持仍然是实验性的。它允许你在支持HTML5的浏览器中支持Gtk+ 应用程序——我们所指的并不只是计算器或文本编辑器之类的小程序，就连GIMP都可以在Firefox 4.0上完好地运行，如下面的视频（视频代码：<iframe src="[url=view-source: http://www.youtube.com/embed/AO-qca9ddqg?rel=0]http://www.youtube.com/embed/AO-qca9ddqg?rel=0[/url]" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="360" width="480"></iframe>）所要演示的。

另一个新东西——同样也是实验性的因为，你懂 的，Wayland 本身就是实验性的——是对Wayland 显示服务器的支持。由于几乎所有对未来的预言都指向了Wayland（除了我们今天知道的X.org之外），我们对该新特性更是全力以赴，确保Gtk+已 为将来做好了充分的准备。Qt 也正致力于对Wayland 的支持，由此可以断定，两大开源工具集均正在为未来做准备。

您可以 在此下载源代码，或是等待您所用发行版的软件仓库中包含它。

Gtk+ 3.2 Released

The latest version of GTk+, version 3.2, has been released. While this new release contains many smaller, less invasive changes, it also has experimental support for two very important new features. First, the ability to run Gtk+ applications inside a browser using HTML5. Second, initial support for the Wayland display server.Gtk+ 3.2 introduces many smaller features which users will benefit from straight away. CSS themeing support has been improved, GtkFileChooser has been overhauled, the GtkFontSelection has been replaced by a new set of GtkFontChooser widgets, and several new widgets have been introduced as well.
The HTML5 support in Gtk+ 3.2 is still experimental. It allows you to run Gtk+ applications inside HTML5-capable browsers - and we're not just talking a calculator or a notepad application, since GIMP runs just fine in Firefox 4.0 as well, as the video below demonstrates.

The other big new thing - also experimental since, you know, Wayland itself is highly experimental - is support for the Wayland display server. This is all work done to make sure Gtk+ is ready for the future, since all indications point towards a Wayland future (instead of the X.org we know today). Qt is also working on Wayland support, so it would seem the two major open source toolkits are getting ready for the future.
You can download the code, or wait for your distribution to include it in its repository.
