Dbus-cxx 0.11.0 tentative release notes

[Robert Middleton]

Hi all,

dbus-cxx 0.11.0 is just about ready for release.  There have been a bunch of changes to the library since the 0.10.0 version, most of which should not involve users of the library as much as maintainers. 

The following is a quick list of changes/improvements:

• Got rid of autotools and replaced with CMake.
• Fixed a few compilation issues with newer versions of g++ on Debian 9+.
• Esnured that the debian packages can be built correctly.
• Fixed an issue getting the signal proxy by name[#3]
• Made it possible for tests to be run with CMake correctly in a pbuilder environment.
• Fixed an issue compiling on 32-bit systems
• Updated dbus-cxx-xml2cpp to output code correctly.

The biggest user-visible change in this version are the changes to dbus-cxx-xml2cpp, which now has much better code outputting capabilities.  As part of this as well, the new way to create an adapter class involves running dbus-cxx-xml2cpp and implementing the auto-generated interface.  This means that if the XML changes, the compiler will catch the difference between your code and the auto-generated code.  The documentation page has some more details on this.
