ANNOUNCE: GFC-Core 2.3.1

[Jeff Franks <jcf tpg com au>]

GTK+ Foundation Classes Core Library
====================================

GFC-Core 2.3.1 - development release

Description
===========

The GTK+ Foundation Classes (formerly Inti) is an set of integrated C++ 
classes for developing GTK+ applications on UNIX-like systems such as 
Linux. GFC-Core is the core object and utility library that other GFC 
libraries such as GFC-UI are built on. GFC-Core includes a C++ wrapper 
for the GLib object system and utiliy libraries, a standard string 
compatible UTF-8 string class, automatic memory management, an optimized 
virtual signal handler system and a typesafe system of C++ signal and 
slots. There are several example programs and a reference manual.

Dependancies
============
GLib 2.4.0 or higher.
libsigc++ 2.0.0 or higher

Enhancements from Inti 1.2 to GFC-Core 2.3.1
============================================

- New Signal System optimized for size, speed and performance.
- Uses the new libsigc2 C++ callback library.
- Wrapped C objects passed to slot functions connected via class
  proxy signals.
- GFC objects can now be created dynamically or on the stack.
  Objects created on the stack no longer need to be unreferenced
  by calling unref().
- All functions taking a String argument have been overloaded with
  const char* to avoid construction of a temporary String object
  when passing string literals.
- Removed unnecessary GObject properties from classes that provide
  getter and setter functions.
- Added G::Module, a C++ wrapper for GModule.
- Changed C++ header file extension from .h to .hh to avoid
  confusion with C header files.
- Examples and documentation updated.
