v0.9.7
9138675

v0.9.7 add a libgda binding for the GNU Data Access library to access databases and other data. Improved shared library loading which no longer throws an exception if a library is missing, only if a function is called in the missing library. This makes it possible to write D applications which only use a library if it is available at runtime. Other changes include adding underscores to built in methods and Flag!"Take" argument to object constructors no longer have a default value. Both of those changes were made to decrease the chance of conflicting with GIR binding API methods. Packages now have website, D, and C API URIs. These are used to generate package README.md files and the website is also now added to the dub.json package files.

Other minor improvements and bug fixes including: missing parenthesis for return type in signal connect templates, new giD SVG logo, fix crash bugs in containerFree for GList and GSList for GidOwnership.None, add working/improved glib.global.strftime, add valType method to gobject.value.Value to get the gType of the value, and add custom gst1.init_ and initCheck methods.
