Changes since 3.0.0:

Bindings

• Bindings have been split into modules and are available as separate artifacts. (#100)
  • The download configurator on the website can be used to customize LWJGL builds and Maven/Gradle projects.
• Added LMDB bindings.
• Added Nuklear bindings. (#101)
• Added Tiny File Dialogs bindings.
• Added bgfx bindings. (#240)
• Added support for new EGL, OpenCL, OpenGL, OpenGL ES and Vulkan extensions.
• Updated all bindings to latest versions.
• Vulkan javadoc is now almost identical to the Vulkan man pages, with links to the online Vulkan specification.

Improvements

• Generator: Removed buffer object binding checks. (#197)
• Generator: Added support for mapping byte/short parameters to int.
• Generator: Added support for va_list parameters.
• Generator: Reduced bytecode size of generated methods.
• Generator: The Vulkan bindings are now automatically generated.
• Optimized strlen methods used internally by LWJGL.
• Optimized misaligned memSet and memCopy.
• Added support for stack allocations with custom alignment.
• Removed allocation functionality from read-only, externally managed structs.
• Improved library loading diagnostics and added Configuration.DEBUG_LOADER option.
• Libraries extracted by the SharedLibraryLoader are now locked to avoid conflicts with other processes (e.g. antivirus software). (#225)
• Simplified javadoc of unsafe versions.

Fixes

• Callback instances are now tracked when the DEBUG_MEMORY_ALLOCATOR option is enabled.
• Fixed realloc tracking in the debug allocator.
• Shared libraries that ship with LWJGL are now always preferred over system libraries.
• Fixed return type of functions that return pointer to boolean.
• stb_image: Fixed result auto-sizing of stbi_load* functions.
• Functions that deallocate memory no longer have Java array overloads.
• Fixed memSet bugs.
• Fixed Java array overload generation for functions with multiple auto-size-result parameters.
• Fixed custom checks in Java array overloads.
• Fixed lookup of Critical JNI natives on Windows x86.
• Disabled Critical JNI natives for functions affected by JDK-8167409 on Linux & MacOS.

Breaking Changes

• xxHash: Added support for stack allocation of streaming hash state. Opaque handles have been replaced by the XXH*State structs.
• NanoVG: Dropped version suffixes from NanoVGGL classes.
• Mapped more integer parameters and return values to Java booleans, that were missed while working on #181.
• Dropped VKUtil class and moved the version macros to VK10.
