]]> https://www.galil.com/sw/pub/all/rn/gclib.html#200400 https://www.galil.com/sw/pub/all/rn/gclib.html#200400 Fri, 13 Mar 2026 10:00:00 +0000

All new backend, not compatible with gcaps 2.2.1 or earlier.

API changes:

• API naming scheme has been updated from PascalCase (GOpen) to snake_case (gclib_open) with full library prefix.
• The new API comes with many behavior changes. Read the docs when migrating!
• All old API has been deprecated, but remains for compatibility: gclib 2.4.0 should not require a rebuild.
• Legacy API will be removed in gclib 3.
• New unsolicited data API for adding and removing subscriptions. gclib now supports callbacks!
• New data record API, intended to replace C structs.

gclib is now thread safe.

gclib now sends compound commands without breaking them apart.

Updated LabVIEW package to 2.0.0.2:

Docs have been updated:

• Added CSS theme to the docs to improve the look.
• Streamlined installation instructions for all languages.
• Examples have been simplified and implemented in all languages.

• The Python wrapper is now distributed as a pip package.
• The Java wrapper is now distributed as a jar and includes JNA.

  • Added missing APIs: G Addresses, G Ip Requests, G Assign, G Publish Server, G List Servers, G Server Status, G Remote Connections, and G Set Server.

The gclib installer now adds gclib to PATH. This allows applications that use gclib to find the libraries at runtime.

GRead, GWrite, and GUtility have been marked deprecated. Compiler warnings will be emitted when these functions are used in C/C++ code.
