Notes:
This release features improved documentation, a few new
features and a little code cleanup. The constructors of
introspectable objects and properties now have an optional
slot that, if provided, will automatically connect to the
changed signal. Because of this change, the ordering of the
construction parameters has changed from a
container-name-value sequence to name-value-container.

This release replaces the Object::iterator that was based
on the std::set iterator with a custom iterator that can be
used with Introspectable as well as vector and array
properties. Several virtual methods have also been removed.

WriteOnlyPropertyBase: fix overloaded set_element (size_t caused problems

creating introspectable properties that are std::vectors or

convenience macros have been cleaned up and extended in
functionality.

This release features some major improvements to Idioskopos.

Serialization of introspectable properties has been improved, and support for XML serializations has been added, along with the ability to register Introspectable classes. With registration of classes, object hierarchies can be dynamically created from an XML specification.

Additionally, the Introspectable/Property relationship has been modified placing the names in the Properties themselves, and signal support has been added. ... read more

Another cleanup release; mainly a rewrite of configure.in.

Long overdue cleanup of configure.in et. al.
Docs now install into $prefix/share/doc/{package}-{version}.
Separate doc rpm consolidated into devel rpm.

This is a cleanup release. autoconf needed a little more voodoo than a regular AC_CHECK_HEADERS
call to properly. Also, added docs package to .spec file to create separate doc rpm.

Mainly just a documentation release.
