- Update to version 0.3.0:
+ This is an unstable release for GNOME 47.beta.
+ The highlight for this release is a new threaded spellchecking
engine. It performs text analysis and dictionary lookups in
bulk off the UI thread. Care is taken to catch collisions in
the face of user editing while spellchecking operations are in
flight.
+ I expect a significant reduction in initial spellchecking time
after opening a document. Opening `gtktextbuffer.c` in Text
Editor was more than 8x faster.
+ Currently, libspelling relies on GTK main until 4.15.5 is
released so do keep this in mind if you are a distributor.
+ Some API has changed, though that is unlikely to affect any
known applications using libspelling.
+ Many new unit tests are part of the testsuite
+ SpellingLanguage was renamed to SpellingDictionary
+ SpellingLanguageInfo was renamed to SpellingLanguage
+ Various helpers were added to SpellingTextBufferAdapter so
that they can update spelling menus. Applications that update
the cursor position on clicks before showing menus may want to
force the menu updating before `menu.popup`.
+ SpellingTextBufferAdapter now uses the new
GtkTextBufferCommitNotify API in GTK 4.15.5 and newer.
