Hello all,I'm happy to announce a shiny new Sofia-SIP release! This release marks an important milestone for the project, as 1.12.0 is the first release with frozen library API/ABI for the main libsofia-sip-ua library.
In the later 1.12.x releases, the focus will shift to fixing bugs in, and otherwise improving, the library. Only time will tell how long lived this 1.12 interface will be, but the intent is for it to be a solid one. If something critical is found, we will do the changes and release 1.14 - otherwise the plan is to move directly to 2.0 without breaking the library interface.
And note that the freeze doesn't yet apply to our glib bindings. The aim is to not continuously break that API either, but some changes will occur.
The official release notes follow: Release notes for Sofia-SIP version 1.12.0 (2006-06-16) ======================================================= Sofia-SIP is an open-source SIP User-Agent library, compliant with the IETF RFC3261 specification. It can be used as a building block for SIP client software for uses such as VoIP, IM, and many other real-time and person-to-person communication services. The primary target platform for Sofia-SIP is GNU/Linux. Sofia-SIP is based on a SIP stack developed at the Nokia Research Center. Sofia-SIP is licensed under the LGPL. Changes since last release -------------------------- Lots of bugfixes have been made to both library code, and to the build system. This is the first release with a stable API/ABI for libsofia-sip-ua. API/ABI changes and versioning ------------------------------ [libsofia-sip-ua] - Library interface version 0 is now frozen. All 1.12.x releases will maintain API/ABI compatibility with v0 interface. Library soname has been set to 'libsofia-sip-ua.so.0'. - Added sofia-sip/hostdomain.h:host_is_local() (implemented by the bnf module). [libsofia-sip-ua-glib] - Unlike the main library, the glib bindings are not yet part of the API/ABI stable library set. For this release, the soname will be set to 'libsofia-sip-ua-glib.so.0', but interface - and the soname - may be changed in later 1.12 releases. - Applications must now separately check for libsofia-sip-ua-glib with pkg-config. The pkg-config dependency 'libsofia-sip-ua -> libsofia-sip-ua-glib' has been removed. See sf.net bug #1446635. [others] - RPM spec-file (packages/sofia-sip.spec): the glib subpackage has been renamed to sofia-sip-glibVER, where 'VER' is the current SONAME version number (not the same as libtool interface version!). Contributors to this release ---------------------------- - Rémi Denis-Courmont See the AUTHORS file in the distribution package. Notes on new features --------------------- - No new features in this release. See past releases notes at http://sofia-sip.sourceforge.net/relnotes/ for a full list of changes done during the 1.11 development cycle. Bugs fixed in this release -------------------------- - #1499652 lpthread is missing in pc file Explicitly list all dependent libs in libsofia-sip-ua.pc. Added a pkg-config dependency for sofia-sip-ua to sofia-sip-ua-glib.pc. Also do not install any libsofia-sip-ua-glib related files if built with '--with-glib=no'. - #1455265 Internal config.h defs in public headers - #1501080 Crash when some tags aren't defined - #1490824 loopback addr selected as contact when not registered - Do not add interface specific DNS servers to the search list on win32. Problem reported by Dimitri E. Prado. - Fixed STUN NAT type checks if built without OpenSSL support.
