gdx-setup 1.12.0

libGDX changes

  • [BREAKING CHANGE] Added #touchCancelled to InputProcessor interface, see #6871.
  • [BREAKING CHANGE] Android: Immersive mode is now true by default. Set useImmersiveMode config to false to disable it.
  • [BREAKING CHANGE] iOS: Increased min supported iOS version to 11.0. Update your Info.plist file if necessary.
  • [BREAKING CHANGE] iOS: hideHomeIndicator set to false by default (was true).
  • [BREAKING CHANGE] iOS: screenEdgesDeferringSystemGestures set to UIRectEdge.All by default (was UIRectEdge.None).
  • [BREAKING CHANGE] iOS: preferred FPS is now uncapped by default, see #6717
  • [BREAKING CHANGE] iOS: ApplicationListener.create and first resize are now called within UIApplicationDelegate.didFinishLaunching. Allows for earlier rendering and prevents black screen frames after launch screen. NOTE: App will get terminated if this method is blocked for more than 10-20 sec.
  • [BREAKING CHANGE] Actor#localToAscendantCoordinates throws an exception if the specified actor is not an ascendant.
  • [BREAKING CHANGE] WidgetGroup#hit first validates the layout.
  • [BREAKING CHANGE] Cell getters return object wrapper instead of primitives.
  • [BREAKING CHANGE] MeshPartBuilder#lastIndex now returns int instead of short.
  • [BREAKING CHANGE] 3D API - max bone weights is now configurable and limited to 4 by default. Change this value if you need less or more. See #6522.
  • [BREAKING CHANGE] Mesh#getVerticesBuffer, Mesh#getIndicesBuffer, VertexData#getBuffer, and IndexData#getBuffer are deprecated in favor to new methods with boolean parameter. If you subclassed some of these classes, you need to implement the new methods.
  • [BREAKING CHANGE] Desktop: The return value of AudioDevice#getLatency() is now in samples, and not milliseconds
  • [BREAKING CHANGE] iOS: 32 bit (armv7) builds are no longer supported. Builds must be 64 bit (arm64) only.
  • [BREAKING CHANGE] iOS: Use dynamic frameworks instead of static libs
  • [BREAKING CHANGE] optimized Mesh#bind and Mesh#unbind have a new parameter for instanced attribute locations. If you use these methods without instancing, you can pass a null value.
  • [BREAKING CHANGE] Dropped support for older libc versions since libGDX is now built on Ubuntu 20.04 (#7005)
  • [KNOWN ISSUE] Android drag behaviour. Gdx.input.getDeltaX() and Gdx.input.getDeltaY always return 0 for pointer 0. Fixed on next version.
  • Update to jnigen 2.4.1
  • LWJGL Fix: setPosision() for MP3 files.
  • iOS: Add new MobiVM MetalANGLE backend
  • iOS: Update to MobiVM 2.3.19
  • Update to LWJGL 3.3.2
  • API Addition: Added Audio#switchOutputDevice and Audio#getAvailableOutputDevices to specify output devices. Only works for LWJGL3
  • Fix LWJGL3: Audio doesn’t die anymore, if a device gets disconnected
  • API Addition: Added Haptics API with 4 different Input#vibrate() methods with complete Android and iOS implementations.
  • API Addition: Vector2: Added static methods for angleDeg and angleRad
  • Fix: Fixed Android and iOS touch cancelled related issues, see #6871.
  • Javadoc: Add “-use” flag to javadoc generation
  • Android: gdx-setup now uses AGP 7.2.2 and SDK 32, requiring Android Studio Chipmunk or IntelliJ IDEA 2022.2 and JDK 11.
  • libGDX is now built using Java 11 due to new Android requirements. The rest of libGDX can still be built with JDK 8 and runtime compatibility of libGDX projects should be unaffected.
  • Fixed glViewport when using HdpiMode.Logical with the LWJGL3 backend.
  • Added Stage#actorRemoved to fire exit events just before an actor is removed.
  • ScrollPane#setScrollingDisabled avoids invalidate() if nothing changed.
  • Fixed incorrect ScrollPane#scrollTo.
  • API Addition: Added Texture3D support
  • Fix: Throw an exception when maximum Attribute count is reached to prevent silent failure.
  • API Fix: The cursor can now be catched on Android.
  • LWJGL3 Fix: Stereo audio can now be played on mono output devices. This may also improve downmixing to stereo and upmixing to surround.

  • API Addition: added WebGL 2.0 implementation to Gwt backend : you can enable it by GwtApplicationConfiguration#useGL30
  • Added GLES31 and GLES32 support with Lwjgl3 backend implementation
  • API Addition: JsonReader#stop() to stop parsing.
  • API Change: TextureAtlas now uses FileHandle#reader so outside code can control the charset
  • API Fix: Intersector#isPointInTriangle
  • API Addition: The Skin serializer now supports useIntegerPositions
  • API Change: The skin serializer now treats scaledSize as a float
  • API Change: DataInput throws an EOF-Exception
  • API Fix: RenderBuffer leak in GLFrameBuffer class
  • API Change: Pixmap#setPixels will now verify it has been given a direct ByteBuffer
  • API Addition: glTexImage2D and glTexSubImage2D with offset parameter
  • API Addition: OrientedBoundingBox
  • API Addition: Tiled parallax factor support
  • API Fix: LWJGL 3’s borderless fullscreen works with negative monitor coords
  • API Fix: Update mouse x and y values immediately after calling #setCursorPosition
  • API Change: Never stall with AssetManager on GWT
  • API Change: Allow packed depth stencil buffer creation when not using GL30
  • API Fix: Fixed DataInput#readString for non-ASCII
  • API Fix: LwjglGraphics.setupDisplay() is no longer choosing the wrong display mode
  • API Fix: MathUtils.lerpAngle() fixed for extreme inputs
  • MathUtils trigonometry improvements
  • Various Scene2D fixes and improvements
  • Fix: JsonValue#addChild now clears leftover list pointers, preventing inconsistent or looping JSON objects.
