LWJGL 3.1.1

on GitHub

Changes since 3.1.0:

Bindings

• Added Assimp bindings.
• bgfx: Updated to API version 34 (up from 28)
• jemalloc: Updated to version 4.4.0 (up from 4.2.1)
• LibOVR: Updated to version 1.10.0 (up from 1.9.0)
• nuklear: Updated to version 1.191 (up from 1.17)
• Vulkan: Updated to version 1.0.38 (up from 1.0.32)
• stb: Updated stb_image to 2.13 (up from 2.12)
• tinyfiledialogs: Updated to version 2.7.2 (up from 2.6.1)

Improvements

• Refactored function pointer lookups in OpenAL, OpenGL and OpenGL ES.
  • Significant reduction in bytecode size (and corresponding JIT code).
  • No thread-local lookup in GL and GLES, even with incompatible contexts.
  • Removed obsolete thread-local and capabilities state Configuration options.
• Linux: All natives are now built with GCC 6.2 (up from 4.8)
• Loader: If jemalloc initialization fails and org.lwjgl.system.allocator has not been set, a simple warning is now shown instead of an exception.
• Structs: Added bound checks to element accessors of array members.
• Generator: Validation is now required for all data pointer parameters. If validation is not possible, such parameters must be marked as potentially unsafe.
• The SHA-1 hash of shared libraries is now included in the corresponding natives JAR files.
• The upstream git revision used to build shared libraries is now included in the corresponding natives JAR files.

Fixes

• Fixed loader diagnostics when System.loadLibrary fails.
• Fixed setters of struct members with optional AutoSize. (#255)
• Fixed MemoryUtil.memRealloc to return null when the allocation fails.
• Vulkan: Function pointer loading of disabled extensions is now skipped.
• Generator: binding.DISABLE_CHECKS is now respected in structs.

Breaking Changes

• macOS: LWJGL now requires macOS 10.9/Mavericks or later (up from 10.7/Lion)
• A small number of method signatures have changed because of auto-size transformations that were missing in previous releases.
• NanoVG: Text functions with an end pointer to the end of the string are now auto-size transformed. Buffers passed to them should not include a null-terminating byte.
• Added LibC prefix to all class names in the libc bindings, to avoid conflicts with standard Java classes (Locale, String, etc.)
• OpenGL and OpenGL ES now come with native libraries (lwjgl_opengl and lwjgl_opengles respectively).
• Removed MemoryUtil.memSetupBuffer.
