TagLib 2.0 Release - Jan 24, 2024

  • New major version, binary incompatible, but mostly source-compatible
    with the latest 1.x release if no deprecated features are used.
    Simple applications should build without changes, more complex
    applications (e.g. extending classes of TagLib) will have to be adapted.
  • Requires a C 17 compiler and uses features of C 17.
  • Major code cleanup, fixed warnings issued by compilers and static analyzers.

    TagLib::tag.

  • Build system: utf8cpp is no longer included, it can be provided via a system
    package or a Git submodule.

    FILEWEBPAGE, INITIALKEY, ORIGINALALBUM, ORIGINALARTIST, ORIGINALFILENAME,
    ORIGINALLYRICIST.
