1Version 0.21 - July 2020 2 3* On native Windows platforms, the directory that contains the message 4 catalogs may now contain arbitrary Unicode characters. To make use of 5 this feature, use the new function 'wbindtextdomain' instead of 6 'bindtextdomain'. It allows to pass a directory name in wchar_t[] encoding. 7 Note: 'wbindtextdomain' exists only on native Windows platforms. 8 9Version 0.20.2 - April 2020 10 11* The interpretation of the language preferences on macOS has been improved, 12 especially in the case where a system locale does not exist for the 13 combination of the selected primary language and the selected territory. 14 15* Fixed a multithread-safety bug on Cygwin and native Windows. 16 17Version 0.20 - April 2019 18 19* The interpretation of the language preferences on macOS has been fixed. 20 21* Per-thread locales are now also supported on Solaris 11.4. 22 23* The replacements for the printf()/fprintf()/... functions that are 24 provided through <libintl.h> on native Windows and NetBSD are now POSIX 25 compliant. There is no conflict any more between these replacements 26 and other possible replacements provided by gnulib or mingw. 27 28Version 0.18.3 - July 2013 29 30* On Mac OS X systems, the setlocale() function now properly 31 invalidates loaded message catalogs when a locale has been set. 32 33 34Version 0.18 - May 2010 35 36* On MacOS X and Windows systems, <libintl.h> now extends setlocale() and 37 newlocale() so that their determination of the default locale considers 38 the choice the user has made in the system control panels. 39 40* On MacOS X systems, the gettext()/dgettext()/... functions now respect the 41 locale of the current thread, if a thread-specific locale has been set. 42 43Version 0.16.1 - November 2006 44 45* Bug fix in the gettext.m4 autoconf macros. 46 47Version 0.16 - October 2006 48 49* Interoperability with automake-1.10. 50 51* Autoconf macros: 52 - The gettext autoconf macros now require autoconf 2.52 or newer. 53 - A new autoconf macro AM_GNU_GETTEXT_INTL_SUBDIR is added. It allows to 54 specify the presence of an intl/ subdirectory outside the AM_GNU_GETTEXT 55 invocation. 56 - A new autoconf macro AM_GNU_GETTEXT_NEED is added. It allows to specify 57 the requirements relating to the GNU gettext implementation outside the 58 AM_GNU_GETTEXT invocation. 59 60Version 0.14.4 - April 2005 61 62* The gettext autoconf macros will now work with the forthcoming g++ 4.0. 63* Fix improved detection of the locale on MacOS X. 64 65Version 0.14.2 - January 2005 66 67* Improved detection of the locale on MacOS X. 68* The gettext autoconf macros now require autoconf 2.50 or newer. 69 70Version 0.14 - January 2004 71 72* New library: GNU.Gettext.dll contains the runtime for using GNU gettext 73 message catalogs in C#. 74 75* Special advice for Norwegian users: The language code for Norwegian 76 bokmål changed from 'no' to 'nb' recently (in 2003). During the transition 77 period, while some message catalogs for this language are installed under 78 'nb' and some older ones under 'no', it's recommended for Norwegian users to 79 set the LANGUAGE environment variable to 'nb:no' so that both newer and 80 older translations are used. 81 82Version 0.13 - November 2003 83 84* On those few platforms (NetBSD and Woe32) for which the native 85 printf()/fprintf()/... functions don't support POSIX/XSI format strings 86 with positions, replacements are provided through <libintl.h>. 87 88* New function library: 89 gettext.sh - shell functions for internationalized shell scripts 90* New program: 91 envsubst - substitutes environment variables in shell format strings 92 93Version 0.12 - May 2003 94 95* A new C++ class, called gnu::autosprintf, makes it possible to use C format 96 strings in C++. This is needed for proper internationalization of C++ 97 programs. 98
