[libvirt] ANNOUNCE: ruby-libvirt bindings 0.2.0

Hello all, I'm pleased to announce the release of 0.2.0 of the ruby-libvirt bindings. This release has a number of new features: - Updated Storage class, implementing pool.active?, pool.persistent?, pool.vol_create_xml_from - Updated Connect class, implementing conn.node_free_memory, conn.node_cells_free_memory, conn.node_get_security_model, conn.encrypted?, conn.libversion, and conn.secure? - Updated Network class, implementing network.active? and network.persistent? - Update Domain class, implementing conn.domain_xml_from_native, conn.domain_xml_to_native, dom.migrate_to_uri, dom.migrate_set_max_downtime, dom.managed_save, dom.has_managed_save?, dom.managed_save_remove, dom.security_label, dom.block_stats, dom.memory_stats, dom.blockinfo, dom.block_peek, dom.memory_peek, dom.active?, dom.persistent?, dom.snapshot_create_xml, dom.num_of_snapshots, dom.list_snapshots, dom.lookup_snapshot_by_name, dom.has_current_snapshot?, dom.revert_to_snapshot, dom.current_snapshot, snapshot.xml_desc, snapshot.delete, dom.job_info, and dom.abort_job - Implementation of the NodeDevice class - Implementation of the Secret class - Implementation of the NWFilter class - Implementation of the Interface class - Conversion of the development tree to git - New maintainer (me). David Lutterkort has agreed to transfer maintainership of the bindings over to me, since he is not actively involved in their development anymore. With the above list, almost all of the APIs up to and including libvirt 0.8.1 are covered. There are a few that I have not yet had time to implement; you can look at the list of FIXMEs in the source code to find them. I've uploaded new tarballs and source RPMs to: http://libvirt.org/ruby/download/ The new git repo is here: http://libvirt.org/git/?p=ruby-libvirt.git;a=summary The documentation for the new API's are here: http://libvirt.org/ruby/api/index.html If you have time, and are interested in the bindings, please give these new ones a whirl and let me know if they work for you. As usual, if you have any questions, problems, patches, or bug reports, feel free to email the libvirt development list (and CC me) so that I can take a look at them. -- Chris Lalancette
