To: <lib...@li...>


We are pleased to announce the final release of libusb 1.0.26.

This release comes relatively quickly after the 1.0.25 release to
mitigate regressions regarding references between transfers and device
structures that were causing applications to crash. In some cases
applications were misusing the libusb API and warnings will be
generated instead, to help such applications getting fixed. A big
thanks goes to Benjamin Berg for analyzing and fixing these issues.

Isochronous streaming now works on WinUSB again, this was an older regression.

Overall, the goals for this release were: Fix all regressions, don't
introduce new ones, build fixes and small, safe changes.

ChangeLog since previous version 1.0.25:

* Fix regression with transfer free's after closing device
* Fix regression with destroyed context if API is misused
* Workaround for applications using missing default context
* Fix hotplug enumeration regression
* Fix Windows isochronous transfer regression since 1.0.24
* Fix macOS exit crash in some multi-context cases
* Build fixes for various platforms and configurations
* Fix Windows HID multi-interface product string retrieval
* Update isochronous OUT packet actual lengths on Windows
* Add interface bound checking for broken devices
* Add umockdev tests on Linux

The 1.0.26 release was made possible by the contributions from a dozen
patch submitters (see below git shortlog) plus everyone who
contributed with issue reporting, discussions and testing.

The source code tarball can be downloaded here:
https://github.com/libusb/libusb/releases/download/v1.0.26/libusb-1.0.26.tar.bz2

An archive of Windows/macOS binaries can be downloaded here:
https://github.com/libusb/libusb/releases/download/v1.0.26/libusb-1.0.26-binaries.7z

Note that the release tarball includes a configure script so unlike a
git checkout it is not necessary to bootstrap with autoconf.

To attract developer attention, feedback and testing I would also like
to take the opportunity to mention a few of the WIP features for
future releases (GitHub ticket numbers in parentheses):
Proper Android support (874), WebAssembly+WebUSB support (1057),
Windows composite functions (965), WinUSB RAWIO support (1069).

On behalf of the libusb development community,
Tormod
