# Smithay Changelog
|
|
|
|
## version 0.3.0 (to be released)
|
|
|
|
Large parts of Smithay were changed with numerous API changes. It is thus recommended to
|
|
approach version 0.3 as if it was a new crate altogether compared to 0.2.
|
|
|
|
The most notable changes are:
|
|
|
|
- Deep refactor of the graphics backends around a workflows centered on allocating graphics buffers,
|
|
and a Gles2-based renderer abstraction is provided.
|
|
- Support for DRM atomic modesetting as well as client-provided DMABUF
|
|
- Most backends are now `calloop` event sources generating events. The recommended organization for
|
|
your smithay-based compositor is thus to centralize most of your logic on a global state struct,
|
|
and delegate event handling to it via the shared data mechanism of `calloop`. Most of the callbacks
|
|
you provide to Smithay are given mutable access to this shared data.
|
|
- The `wayland::compositor` handling logic now automatically handles state tracking and delayed commit
|
|
for wayland surfaces.
|
|
|
|
Many thanks to the new contributors to Smithay, who contributed the following:
|
|
|
|
- Support for [`libseat`](https://sr.ht/~kennylevinsen/seatd/) as a session backend, by
|
|
@PolyMeilex
|
|
- Support for graphics tablets via the `tablet` protocol extension, by @PolyMeilex
|
|
- Support for running Smithay on `aarch64` architectures, by @cmeissl
|
|
- A rework of the `xdg-shell` handlers to better fit the protocol logic and correctly track configure
|
|
events, by @cmeissl
|
|
- Basic Xwayland support, by @psychon
|
|
