News
====
OpenTK 1.1.2 was released on 19 May 2014.
OpenTK 1.1.3 was released on 20 June 2014.
It contains performance and stability improvements and synchronizes the OpenGL and OpenGL ES bindings with the May 2014 Khronos specifications.
This release resolves a number of identified issues and synchronizes the OpenGL and OpenGL ES bindings with the June 2014 Khronos specifications.
**Changelog:**
1. New Cocoa backend for Mac OS X, with support for OpenGL 4.x and retina displays. Huge thanks to [Ollhax](https://github.com/Ollhax) for implementing the backend from scratch, including the necessary Cocoa bindings!
2. Custom hardware cursors are now supported: `INativeWindow.Cursor = new MouseCursor(...)`
3. Up to 2000% improvement in binding loading speed. The exact numbers depend on the operating system and hardware configuration. On a Nvidia 650M GPU and a 2.3GHz processor:
- Linux: 6.5ms instead of 45ms
- MacOS: 9.5ms instead of 165ms
- Win64: 5.9ms instead of 108ms
4. Up to 1000% improvement in memory consumption. The object graph has been reduced from 9000 to 900 objects, consuming between 185-220KB of memory depending on the platform and hardware configuration.
5. Support for high-resolution X/Y scrolling on all platforms:
- `OpenTK.Input.MouseState.Scroll.X/Y`
6. Improved mouse input APIs:
- new INativeWindow.MouseMove, MouseUp, MouseDown and MouseWheel events
- new OpenTK.Mouse.GetCursorPos() API to retrieve the state of the system cursor
- all mouse event arguments now carry the current MouseState
7. Improved keyboard input APIs:
- support for non-US layouts on Linux/X11
- all keyboard event arguments now carry the current KeyboardState
- all keyboard event arguments now report the correct KeyModifiers state
8. New OpenGL extensions:
- AMD_gcn_shader
- AMD_gpu_shader_int64
- AMD_transform_feedback4
- EXT_shader_image_load_formatted
- NV_shader_thread_group
- NV_shader_thread_shuffle
9. New OpenGL ES extensions:
- ARM_shader_framebuffer_fetch
- ARM_shader_framebuffer_fetch_depth_stencil
- EXT_shader_pixel_local_storage
- KHR_blend_equation_advanced
- OES_sample_shading
- OES_sample_variables
- OES_shader_image_atomic
- OES_shader_multisample_interpolation
- OES_texture_stencil8
- OES_texture_storage_multisample_2d_array
10. Improved OpenGL ES documentation tooltips.
11. Improved stability when using EGL on Linux and Windows/ANGLE.
12. Improved stability when using SDL2 on 32bit platforms.
13. Improved the shutdown sequence on X11.
14. Fixed a marshaling issue affecting 2d and 3d arrays on Windows/.Net.
1. Fixed a potential crash in bindings accepting a string array.
2. Fixed a marshalling issue where bindings might return an incorrect boolean value on some architectures.
3. Fixed a regression where mouse scrolling coordinates on Linux where flipped. Mouse scrolling now uses identical coordinate systems on Windows, Linux and Mac OS X: (+x, +y) = (right, up).
4. Fixed a potential deadlock when exiting the X11/XInput2 subsystem.
5. Fixed an issue where single-to-half floating point conversions would return incorrect results for specific numbers.
6. Added an API compatibility test - backwards-incompatible changes will now cause a compilation failure in the continuous integration server.
7. New platform: XQuartz (X11 over Mac OS X).
8. New platform: XWayland (X11 over Wayland).
9. New OpenGL and OpenGL ES extensions:
- EXT_geometry_point_size
- EXT_primitive_bounding_box
- EXT_texture_array
- EXT_tessellation_point_size
OpenTK 1.1.2 is backwards compatible with 1.1.1. Users of previous versions are encouraged to upgrade.
