-*** libsigc++ 2.0:
-
-libsigc++ implements a typesafe callback system for standard C++. It
-allows you to define signals and to connect those signals to any
-callback function, either global or a member function, regardless of
-whether it is static or virtual.
-
-libsigc++ is used by gtkmm to wrap the GTK+ signal system. It does not depend
-on GTK or gtkmm.
-
-libsigc++ 2.0 uses modern C++ mechanisms to achieve a highly flexible,
-yet typesafe callback system. It supports all features of libsigc++ 1.2
-and improves upon it with a simpler and more powerful API.
-
-This version of libsigc++ needs GNU g++ 3.2 or higher to compile.
-
-

-
-1.9.6:
-
-* First public release of the unstable 2.0 generation.
- libsigc++ 2.0 uses modern C++ mechanisms to achieve a highly
- flexible, yet typesafe callback system. It supports all features of
- libsigc++ 1.2 and improves upon it by:
- - No need to specify the number of arguments in signal definitions.
- - Connection of any compatible (=implicitly convertable) functor
- to a signal.
- - Implicit type conversions of parameters during signal emission.
- - Lambda adaptor for complete restructuring of functor parameter
- lists in one line (subject to changes).
- - Signal has a fully featured stl style list interface.
- - A convinient accumulator API (replacing the old marshaller API).
- - Removal of unnecessary memory management functionality.
- - Lightweight class "trackable" for use as base class of your
- class hierarchy replaces class "Object".
