Added a Win32 icon-theme setup helper that appends bundled share/icons to GtkIconTheme search paths and forces Adwaita when available, so the emoji chooser’s category/menu symbolic icons resolve instead of showing placeholder squares.
Invoked the new Win32 icon-theme configuration immediately after gtk_init() so it applies before UI usage, including the emoji chooser popover created from entries.
updated the input entry creation to stop creating a separate emoji button, and instead enable GTK’s built-in emoji menu icon with show-emoji-icon on GTK3+ builds only (no GTK2 fallback path).
Preserved the previous idle-batched behavior for users who are not at the bottom (scrolling history), so performance-friendly deferred redraws still apply in that case.
I also kept the existing correctness behavior: when indent does materially change, it still fixes/recalculates and updates ent->indent/force_render as before.
sets gtk-application-prefer-dark-theme when that GtkSettings property exists, and
applies an app-level GtkCssProvider with dark/light fallback classes (zoitechat-dark / zoitechat-light) to keep non-chat widgets aligned with mode changes.
Updated the shared theme apply path so fe_apply_theme_for_mode() still applies the palette layer (palette_apply_dark_mode) and now also applies the Windows GTK layer, ensuring auto/manual modes flow through one path.
Extended toplevel theme application to add/remove the new dark/light CSS classes on Windows GTK3 windows, while preserving native titlebar dark-mode handling.
Made AUTO mode resolve from the cached auto_dark_mode_enabled state, and initialized that state in fe_init() before the first fe_apply_theme_for_mode() call so initial and subsequent behavior are consistent.
Added a unified theme application pipeline via fe_apply_theme_for_mode() and fe_apply_theme_to_toplevel(), and routed auto-mode refresh logic through it so palette + GTK input styling are applied consistently from one place.
Switched startup and settings-apply flows to use the unified theming function, replacing direct palette-only calls so system-mode detection → theme apply is consistent across initialization and preferences changes.
Applied native titlebar updates when top-level windows are shown and during setup reapply across open sessions, and wired Windows builds to link dwmapi in both Meson and MSVC project files.
Updated the Inno Setup installer file list to install share\glib-2.0\schemas\* into {app}\share\glib-2.0\schemas under the libs component, so installed builds also ship required schema data.
Updated gtkutil_file_req_response() so only GTK_RESPONSE_ACCEPT runs the file-selection path; all non-accept responses now immediately destroy the dialog via the callback’s dialog pointer, avoiding chooser access on cancel paths.
Kept native chooser handling aligned with that behavior: chooser reads are still gated behind GTK_RESPONSE_ACCEPT, while cleanup remains a single unref path deferred to idle to avoid teardown-in-signal-stack issues on Windows.
Updated menu_setting_foreach() to safely handle sessions where menu_item[id] is still NULL by storing it in a local pointer and only toggling check state when it exists. This avoids GTK/GLib criticals during layout/menu synchronization paths while preserving normal behavior for initialized menu items.
Fixed the a few dialog box layout so the scrolled keybindings list expands to fill available vertical space in the window. It now packs the scroller into the parent GtkBox with expand/fill enabled (gtk_box_pack_start(..., TRUE, TRUE, 0)) instead of adding it as a generic container child. This allows the window height to be fully utilized.
Kept GTK2 behavior unchanged (#if !HAVE_GTK3 still clears widget->window user data in the legacy path).
Added an in-code comment documenting why GTK3 must preserve user-data until chaining to parent unrealize.
Added gtkutil_native_file_req_response() to keep completion semantics consistent: process selected files on accept, send the trailing callback(..., NULL) completion notification, free request state, and defer dialog unref to idle.
Updated the native chooser code path to replace immediate unref with deferred unref via g_idle_add(...) after gtk_native_dialog_run, while preserving the existing accept-only file handling behavior.
Updated gtkutil_file_req() to resolve an effective_parent (fallback to global parent_window when no parent is passed), which ensures consistent transient parenting and modal assertions in this code path.
Added a Windows GTK3-specific path that uses GtkFileChooserNative (instead of the GTK file chooser dialog widget path implicated by your stack trace), while preserving existing behavior for initial folder/name, filters, multi-select, and overwrite confirmation before invoking the same file-check callback flow.
Left the existing non-Windows / non-GTK3 dialog flow in place unchanged in behavior, so platforms outside the crash scenario continue using the prior implementation.
zoitechat-common (desktop integration, dbus service, icons, locales, appdata, mime).
zoitechat-dev (plugin development header + pkg-config file).
zoitechat-lua, zoitechat-perl, zoitechat-plugins, and zoitechat-python3 (plugin/shared module payloads).
Simplified zoitechat.install to only the core executable + man page, with shared data moved to zoitechat-common to match package split intent.
Updated user list creation to apply the current input font in GTK3 when palette styling is applied, so the user list reflects font changes consistently.
Updated channel view creation in GTK3 to always pass the current input font to chanview_new, ensuring channel list typography starts with the configured font.
Updated settings re-apply logic to always include the current input font for the user list in GTK3, so runtime font updates take effect there as well.
Added a Windows-specific guard in waitline() that checks _get_osfhandle(sok) before calling read() in non-socket mode; if the CRT file descriptor is invalid, it now fails gracefully with -1 instead of hitting the debug CRT assertion you reported.
Wrapped shortcut-folder setup with existence checks and explicit GError handling so invalid config paths don’t propagate into GTK chooser failures/crashes on Windows.
Removed an unused get_xdir_fs extern declaration from this function while introducing a single xdir value reused across chooser setup logic.
Added type guards before using the stored plugin view/model (GTK_IS_TREE_VIEW, GTK_IS_LIST_STORE) so stale or unexpected object data doesn’t get dereferenced.
Switched plugin list population to always pass non-null strings for name/version/description via plugingui_safe_string, preventing null string propagation into GTK model setters.
Added an unload guard for empty/null modname before calling unload logic, preventing unsafe calls into plugin teardown paths with invalid identifiers.
fe_pluginlist_update() now guards against pl == NULL, pl->version == NULL, and pl->filename == NULL before dereferencing, and uses safe empty-string fallbacks for filename-backed columns. This prevents null dereferences from malformed or partially-populated plugin entries.
plugingui_unload() now early-returns when the selected plugin filepath is NULL/empty before suffix checks and command formatting, preventing invalid string operations in unload flow.
Updated plugin Unload and Reload callbacks to use the guarded session helper before issuing command-based unload/reload for script plugins, and to exit cleanly when no session is available.
Fixed plugin list layout sizing by forcing the tree view’s scrolled container to expand/fill inside the plugin window’s vbox, so the loaded-plugins list now uses full available height above the button row.
Added a defensive check that reports a user-facing error ("No active session available for loading addons.") and exits early when no valid session exists, instead of calling handle_command() with invalid state.
Updated the file request call to pass NULL userdata for load operations, so the callback no longer retains a stale session pointer while the chooser is open.
Fixed the single-file open path in gtkutil_file_req_done() to fetch the filename once and only call gtkutil_check_file() when a non-NULL filename is returned, preventing the crash path when GTK returns no file on accept/load.
Fixed the top-level preferences window layout so the central horizontal content area expands within the main vertical container, instead of staying at natural height.
Updated Run Command to use the shared decoder instead of its previous newline-only parser, so it now supports the same escape set consistently.
Updated Insert in Buffer to decode escapes before insertion, so \xNN inserts raw bytes rather than literal text.
Updated key action help text to document the supported escape syntax for both Run Command and Insert in Buffer.
Updated the Windows build to prefer glib-genmarshal executables with a Python fallback for marshal generation.
Made GTK link dependencies more robust by selecting available ATK library names before assembling GTK libs.
