Improvements

• Linux: Added support for ARM builds.
  • 32-bit: ARMv7/armhf architecture. Maven classifier: linux-arm32
  • 64-bit: ARMv8/AArch64 architecture. Maven classifier: linux-arm64
• Windows: There is now a separate native JAR file per architecture.
  • The default contains x64 shared libraries only. Maven classifier: windows
  • lwjgl-natives-windows-x86.jar contains x86 shared libraries only. Maven classifier: windows-x86
  • The 32 suffix has been dropped from x86 shared library names.
• Windows: Shared libraries are now built with Visual Studio 2019 (up from 2017)
• Maven: LWJGL artifacts now include a Bill of Materials (lwjgl-bom). (#481)
  • The build customizer may be used to migrate Maven/Gradle scripts.
• Refactored the layout of native JAR files.
  • Shared libraries have been moved from the root to a <platform>/<arch>/<module>/ subfolder.
    • <platform>: one of linux, macos, windows.
    • <arch>: one of x64, x86, arm64, arm32.
    • <module>: the corresponding Java module name as a package hierarchy.
    • Example: glfw.so in lwjgl-glfw-natives-linux.jar is under the linux/x64/org/lwjgl/glfw folder.
  • The new layout allows multiple native JAR files to be combined for custom deployment.
  • Custom (or the old) layout may be used with newly exposed Configuration options.
• Core: Added enum Platform.Architecture and Platform.getArchitecture() API.
• Core: Added relative & absolute apply(Consumer<T>) methods to StructBuffer<T>.
• Core: Added Consumer<T> setters to structs with nested arrays of structs.
• Core: Added memByteBuffer overloads that return ByteBuffer views of other buffer types.
• Core: Added CLongBuffer, a class similar to PointerBuffer but for C long values.

Fixes

• Core: Removed support for Critical JNI Natives. (#490)
  • Will be restored in LWJGL 3.3 (disabled by default, enabled with a Configuration option).
• Core: Fixed buffer attachment offset detection on JDK 12+. (#491)
• Core: Fixed ByteBuffer attachments in memSlice & memDuplicate.
• Generator: Fixed invalid generation of functions with struct parameters passed by value. (#496)
  • Affected bindings: OpenVR and LLVM/Clang.
• Generator: Improved javadoc for array and nested struct members.
• EGL/GLES: Fixed bootstrapping code.
  • Regression caused by org.lwjgl.system.JNI refactoring in 3.2.2.
• LLVM: Fixed default library names.
• lmdb: Reverted to the official release. (#482)
  • Windows: Performance issues are eliminated, but sparse database mappings & incremental file growth are not supported anymore.
• OpenGL: Fixed signatures of glGetnUniformiv and glGetnUniformuiv.

Breaking Changes

(B): binary incompatible change
(S): source incompatible change

• Core: The Library.loadSystem & Library.loadNative methods now require a module name parameter. (S)
• Core: Removed Consumer<T> overloads from read-only structs with nested struct members. (S)
• Core: MemoryUtil.memFree(PointerBuffer) changed to memFree(CustomBuffer). (B)
• LZ4: The autoFlush and favorDecSpeed members of LZ4F_preferences_t are now mapped to Java boolean. (S)
• Vulkan: The descriptorCount member of VkWriteDescriptorSet must now be set explicitly. (S)
  • The semantics of descriptorCount may change via extensions, which invalidates auto-sizing.
