    • Support for cursor hover tests (GLFW_HOVERED)
  • lz4: Update to 1.8.1 (up from 1.8.0)
  • Nuklear: Update to 3.00.2 (up from 2.00.4)
  • OpenVR: Updated to 1.0.12 (up from 1.0.10)

Improvements

  • Added JSR-305 nullability annotations to the core and all bindings. (#344)
    • Enables static analysis tools (FindBugs, IDEs) to detect accesses that could cause NullPointerException. Eliminating those improves the quality of LWJGL applications.
    • Enables better interopation with JVM-based languages that feature built-in null-safety. For example, see Kotlin's JSR-305 support.
  • Added Configuration setting to disable function lookup checks.
  • lmdb: Databases are now binary compatible across 32 & 64-bit architectures. (#364)
    • MDB_VL32 is enabled on 32-bit builds.
  • par_shapes: Patched to support 32-bit indices and extremely dense meshes.
  • stb_truetype: Exposed members of internal structures for advanced glyph packing customization. (#358)
  • Tootle: Now supports the Direct3D rasterizer for overdraw optimization.

Fixes

  • JPMS: A natives module now requires transitive the corresponding Java module, instead of the opposite. (#334)
    • Enables loading shared libraries from non-modular paths/JARs.
  • JPMS: module-info files have been moved under META-INF/version/9/ (#334)
    • All LWJGL artifacts are now multi-release JAR files to avoid trouble with older tools that are not compatible with Java 9.
  • JPMS: Added appropriate requires static declarations to satisfy optional binding interop dependencies. (#369)
  • Fixed broken javadoc links in all bindings. Also updated URLs to avoid redirects.
  • bgfx: Restored default API thread encoder functions, that were erroneously removed in 3.1.4.
  • LibOVR: Fixed ovr_TraceMessage signature.
  • OpenAL: Fixed capability name of the AL_SOFT_source_resampler extension.
  • Tootle: Fixed pnClusterRemapOut parameter validation.

Breaking Changes

  • Several methods that previously accepted null/NULL and returned null, now require non-null input.
    • Applies to: struct & callback creation methods and memByteBuffer/memUTF8/stack.UTF8/etc.
    • Added corresponding methods with the Safe suffix that accept null/NULL, matching the old behavior.
    • With this change the common case (non-null input) requires no code changes and is warning/error-free. The uncommon case (null input) is recognizable (the suffix) and must be handled properly to eliminate warnings/errors.
  • Allocation methods that returned null/NULL on allocation failure, now throw OutOfMemoryError instead. This matches the behavior of ByteBuffer.allocateDirect.
    • Applies to: struct allocation methods and memAlloc/memCalloc/etc.
    • Does not apply to allocations via direct binding calls (e.g. LibCStdlib.malloc).
  • Getters of struct members that should never be NULL, throw NullPointerException instead of returning null when the struct instance is not initialized.
    • Use Struct::isNull to test pointer members of untrusted struct instances.
  • bgfx: Restored native mapping of bgfx_init(_vendorId) and bgfx_update_texture_cube(_side) parameters. (#368)
  • bgfx: uint16_t bitfield constants are now mapped to int. (#368)
  • glfw: glfwInitHintString has been renamed to glfwWindowHintString.
  • lmdb: Databases developed on 32-bit architectures must be recreated. (#364)
  • par_shapes: Changed par_shapes_mesh::triangles from uint16_t/ShortBuffer to uint32_t/IntBuffer.
  • stb_rect_pack: stbrp_rect::was_packed is now mapped to Java boolean.
