to provide controlled wrappers around GTK+ strong and weak references;
- Gtk.Handlers.References was added to provide references to signal
handlers which disconnect the handler's callback upon finalization:
- Class_List_Properties was added to the package Gtk.Widget.Styles;
- Gtk.Widget.Styles.Store was added for capturing property styles of a
widget;
- For GNAT users GPS project files were added;
