What's new in the WPEBackend 0.2.0 release?
===========================================
This is a backwards-compatible release, which adds the following features:
- New API to set and query the backend implementation library being used.
- New API to query the version library, both with macros at build time,
and functions at runtime.
- Trying to use a backend implementation library which does not provide
a "load_object" callback will produce a meaningful error instead of
silently failing.
What is WPEBackend
==================
WPEBackend is the library that WPE WebKit uses to load different backend
implementation modules, which themselves provide adaptations for running
WPE WebKit on different platforms.
What is WPE WebKit?
====================
WPE WebKit is an embeddable port of the WebKit rendering engine.
Offering WebKit's full functionality through a set of GObject-based
APIs, it is suitable for projects requiring any kind of web
integration, from hybrid HTML/CSS applications to full-fledged web
browsers.
