* fix(v3): warm up dialog types in go-json cache to prevent Windows panic
Add FileFilter, OpenFileDialogOptions, SaveFileDialogOptions, and
MessageDialogOptions to the init() warmup to prevent index out of bounds
panic on Windows when these types are first unmarshaled.
Fixes goccy/go-json#474 for Wails internal dialog types.
* fix(v3): revert goccy/go-json to stdlib encoding/json to fix Windows panic
goccy/go-json has a type address calculation bug on Windows that causes
index out of bounds panic when decoding user-defined types for the first time.
This reverts all runtime usages of goccy/go-json back to stdlib encoding/json.
Test and benchmark files are left unchanged.
Partially reverts PR #4843.
fix(v3): fix macOS mkdir when APP_NAME contains spaces
Replace brace expansion {MacOS,Resources} with two separate mkdir commands.
Brace expansion doesn't work inside quoted strings and is shell-dependent.
Adds integration test to verify mkdir works with spaces in paths.
* feat(linux): add libpath package for finding native library paths
Add a new internal/libpath package that locates shared libraries (.so files)
on Linux systems. Supports multiple distributions and package managers.
Features:
- Multi-tier search: pkg-config -> ldconfig -> filesystem scanning
- Parallel search using goroutines for faster lookups
- Cached dynamic path discovery for Flatpak, Snap, and Nix
- Support for Debian/Ubuntu, Fedora/RHEL, Arch, openSUSE, NixOS
- Context-aware cancellation for graceful shutdown
Performance:
- Library found: ~1.4ms (parallel search)
- Library not found: ~46ms (was 84ms sequential)
- Cached path discovery: 14ns (was 15ms uncached)
* feat(libpath): add multi-library parallel search functions
Add functions to search for multiple library candidates in parallel:
- FindFirstLibrary: Search multiple libs in parallel, return first found
- FindFirstLibraryOrdered: Search in order of preference (for version priority)
- FindAllLibraries: Find all available libraries from a list
Useful when the exact library version is unknown, e.g.:
match, _ := FindFirstLibrary("webkit2gtk-4.1", "webkit2gtk-4.0", "webkit2gtk-6.0")
Also adds findLibraryPathCtx for context-aware searching used by the
multi-library functions.
* refactor(libpath): split into separate files and fix race condition
Split libpath_linux.go into smaller, focused files:
- cache_linux.go: Path cache with thread-safe init/invalidate
- flatpak_linux.go: Flatpak runtime path discovery
- snap_linux.go: Snap package path discovery
- nix_linux.go: Nix/NixOS path discovery
- libpath_linux.go: Core search functions
Fixes:
- Fix data race between init() and invalidate() by holding mutex
during cache writes inside sync.Once.Do (CodeRabbit review)
- Fix FindLibraryPathWithOptions not searching dynamic paths
(Flatpak/Snap/Nix) - now uses GetAllLibPaths() (CodeRabbit review)

This was a development test file that shouldn't be in the PR.
The drag-n-drop example serves as the proper test case.
* docs(v3): update Windows file drop comment to reflect implemented fix
Remove stale TODO - enableFileDrop flag is now injected in navigationCompleted
* refactor(v3): make handleDragAndDropMessage unexported
Internal method only called by application event loop, not part of public API.

* perf(v3): optimize JSON processing and reduce allocations in hot paths
- Switch to goccy/go-json for method binding, events, and HTTP transport
(21-63% faster, 40-60% less memory for method calls)
- Optimize BoundMethod struct layout to reduce padding (144 -> 136 bytes)
- Cache isVariadic flag at registration to avoid reflect call per invocation
- Use stack-allocated buffer for method arguments (<=8 args)
- Optimize result collection to avoid slice allocation for single return values
- Use sync.Map for MIME cache to improve concurrent read performance
- Use buffer pool for HTTP transport request body reading
- Lazily allocate CloseNotify channel in content type sniffer
- Remove debug CSS logging from asset server
- Add comprehensive benchmark tests (build tag: bench)
Performance improvements for BoundMethod.Call:
- SimpleCall: 1290ns -> 930ns (28% faster), 240B -> 80B (67% less memory)
- ComplexCall: 10500ns -> 3900ns (63% faster), 1192B -> 1020B (14% less)
- VariadicCall: 3460ns -> 1600ns (54% faster), 512B -> 289B (44% less)
* perf(v3): add max size limit to buffer pool to prevent memory bloat
Buffers larger than 512KB are not returned to the pool, allowing GC
to reclaim memory after large requests (e.g., base64 encoded images).
* perf(v3): remove mimetype library dependency, saving ~208KB binary size
- Replace github.com/wailsapp/mimetype with expanded extension map + stdlib
- Expand MIME type map from 16 to 50+ common web formats (fonts, audio, video, etc.)
- Add comprehensive test suite validating MIME detection for all web formats
- Use http.DetectContentType as fallback for unknown extensions
- Actual binary size reduction: 1.2MB (11MB -> 9.8MB in test app)
* perf(v3): migrate all runtime code to goccy/go-json
Migrate remaining encoding/json usages to goccy/go-json in:
- pkg/application (android, darwin, ios, single_instance, webview_window)
- pkg/services (kvstore, notifications on all platforms)
- internal/assetserver/webview (request/response handling)
- internal/runtime and internal/capabilities
Note: encoding/json (110KB) remains in binary because:
1. goccy/go-json imports it for interface compatibility (json.Marshaler, etc.)
2. log/slog (stdlib) uses it for JSON output
The performance benefit is in the hot paths which now use the faster library.
* perf(v3): replace gopkg.in/ini.v1 with minimal .desktop file parser
Replace the gopkg.in/ini.v1 dependency with a purpose-built minimal parser
for Linux .desktop files.
The new parser:
- Only extracts the Exec key from [Desktop Entry] section (all we need)
- Follows the Desktop Entry Specification
- Has comprehensive test coverage (40 tests) including:
- All major file managers (Nautilus, Dolphin, Thunar, PCManFM, Caja, Nemo)
- Edge cases (UTF-8, special chars, comments, empty files, etc.)
- Buffer limit handling
Binary size reduction: 45KB (10.22MB -> 10.18MB)
* perf(v3): remove samber/lo from runtime code, saving ~310KB binary size
Replace samber/lo with Go 1.21+ stdlib slices package and minimal internal
helpers in all runtime code paths. This removes 80 transitive dependencies
from the production binary.
Changes:
- Create internal/sliceutil package with Unique and FindMapKey helpers
- Replace lo.Without with slices.DeleteFunc in event handling
- Replace lo.Ternary with inline if/else in Windows code
- Replace lo.Uniq with sliceutil.Unique for feature flags
- Replace lo.FindKey with sliceutil.FindMapKey for method aliases
- Replace lo.Filter with slices.DeleteFunc in event listeners
- Replace lo.Must with inline panic in w32 package
Binary size: 10.18MB -> 9.87MB (~310KB / 3% reduction)
Note: CLI tools still use samber/lo since they don't affect
production binary size. The application_debug.go file also
retains lo usage as it has //go:build !production tag.
* fix: address CodeRabbit review comments
- Use application/x-typescript MIME type (not IANA-registered text/typescript)
- Fix potential panic in mimetype_stdlib_test.go for short MIME strings
- Use cached isVariadic flag in bindings_optimized_bench_test.go
* fix: initialize goccy/go-json decoder early to fix Windows test failure
On Windows, goccy/go-json's type address calculation can fail if the
decoder is first invoked during test execution rather than at init time.
Force early initialization by unmarshaling a []int during package init.

## Summary of Documentation Updates
### Key API Corrections Made:
1. **Dialog Creation**:
- Changed `app.InfoDialog()` → `application.InfoDialog()` (package-level functions)
- Also documented `app.Dialog.Info()` via DialogManager
2. **Question Dialog Buttons**:
- Removed non-existent `SetButtons("Save", "Don't Save", "Cancel")` method
- Now uses `AddButton("label")` which returns a `*Button`
- Button callbacks via `button.OnClick(func() { ... })`
3. **Default/Cancel Buttons**:
- Changed `SetDefaultButton("Cancel")` (string) → `SetDefaultButton(cancelBtn)` (`*Button`)
- Changed `SetCancelButton("Cancel")` (string) → `SetCancelButton(cancelBtn)` (`*Button`)
- Also documented fluent `SetAsDefault()` and `SetAsCancel()` methods on Button
4. **File Dialog Filters**:
- Changed `SetFilters([]application.FileFilter{...})` → `AddFilter("Display Name", "*.ext;*.ext2")`
5. **Save Dialog Filename**:
- Changed `SetDefaultFilename()` → `SetFilename()`
6. **Folder Selection**:
- Removed non-existent `app.SelectFolderDialog()`
- Now uses `application.OpenFileDialog().CanChooseDirectories(true).CanChooseFiles(false)`
7. **Show() Return Value**:
- Removed incorrect `result, err := dialog.Show()` pattern
- `Show()` returns nothing - responses are handled via button callbacks
### Files Modified:
- `docs/src/content/docs/features/dialogs/message.mdx` - Complete rewrite of question dialog examples
- `docs/src/content/docs/features/dialogs/overview.mdx` - Updated all code examples
- `docs/src/content/docs/features/dialogs/file.mdx` - Updated file dialog examples
- `v3/UNRELEASED_CHANGELOG.md` - Added changelog entry
* All changes are complete. Here's a summary of what was updated:
## Summary
I've updated the Wails v3 dialogs documentation to match the actual API. The documentation now consistently uses:
### DialogManager Pattern (Recommended)
- `app.Dialog.Info()`, `app.Dialog.Question()`, `app.Dialog.Warning()`, `app.Dialog.Error()`
- `app.Dialog.OpenFile()`, `app.Dialog.SaveFile()`
This is consistent with other runtime features like `app.Window`, `app.Event`, etc.
### Key API Corrections
1. **Dialog Creation**: Both `app.Dialog.*()` (DialogManager) and `application.*Dialog()` (package-level) are documented
2. **Question Dialog Buttons**: Use `AddButton("label")` which returns `*Button`, then `button.OnClick(callback)`
3. **Default/Cancel Buttons**: `SetDefaultButton(button)` and `SetCancelButton(button)` take `*Button` pointers
4. **File Filters**: Use `AddFilter("Display Name", "*.ext")` instead of `SetFilters()`
5. **Save Dialog Filename**: Use `SetFilename()` instead of `SetDefaultFilename()`
6. **Folder Selection**: Use `app.Dialog.OpenFile().CanChooseDirectories(true).CanChooseFiles(false)`
### Files Modified
- `docs/src/content/docs/features/dialogs/overview.mdx`
- `docs/src/content/docs/features/dialogs/message.mdx`
- `docs/src/content/docs/features/dialogs/file.mdx`
- `v3/UNRELEASED_CHANGELOG.md`
* Audit complete! All documentation files now consistently use `app.Dialog.*` for all code examples. Here's the summary:
## Audit Complete
All dialog documentation has been updated to consistently use the `app.Dialog.*` pattern:
### Changes Made:
**message.mdx:**
- All examples now use `app.Dialog.Info()`, `app.Dialog.Question()`, `app.Dialog.Warning()`, `app.Dialog.Error()`
- Function signatures updated to accept `app *application.App` parameter
- Nested dialog calls within callbacks also updated
**file.mdx:**
- All examples now use `app.Dialog.OpenFile()`, `app.Dialog.SaveFile()`
- Function signatures updated to accept `app *application.App` parameter
- All error/info dialogs within file operations also updated
**overview.mdx:**
- Already consistent from earlier edits
### Documentation Structure:
Each file now properly documents both approaches in a dedicated section:
```go
// Via DialogManager (recommended when you have an app instance):
app.Dialog.Info()
app.Dialog.OpenFile()
// Package-level functions (useful in callbacks or when app isn't in scope):
application.InfoDialog()
application.OpenFileDialog()
```
But all code examples use the `app.Dialog.*` pattern for consistency with other runtime features like `app.Window`, `app.Event`, etc.
* docs: Fix reference/dialogs.mdx and reference/application.mdx API documentation
Updated docs to match actual Wails v3 Dialogs API:
- reference/dialogs.mdx: Complete rewrite with correct API
- Use `app.Dialog.OpenFile()` and `app.Dialog.SaveFile()` instead of `app.OpenFileDialog()`
- Use `AddFilter("name", "pattern")` instead of `SetFilters([]FileFilter{...})`
- Use `SetFilename()` instead of `SetDefaultFilename()`
- Use `SetDirectory()` instead of `SetDefaultDirectory()`
- Remove non-existent `SelectFolderDialog()` - use `OpenFile().CanChooseDirectories(true).CanChooseFiles(false)`
- Use `AddButton()` with callbacks instead of `SetButtons()`
- Use `SetDefaultButton(*Button)` instead of `SetDefaultButton(int)`
- Document that `Show()` returns nothing, use callbacks
- reference/application.mdx: Fix Dialog Methods section
- Use `app.Dialog.*` manager pattern
- Show correct Question dialog with button callbacks
- Fix file dialog examples with `AddFilter()`
- Remove `SelectFolderDialog()` reference

* refactor: Remove package-level dialog functions in favor of app.Dialog manager
BREAKING CHANGE: Remove package-level dialog functions. Use app.Dialog manager instead.
Removed functions:
- application.InfoDialog()
- application.QuestionDialog()
- application.WarningDialog()
- application.ErrorDialog()
- application.OpenFileDialog()
- application.SaveFileDialog()
Use the Dialog manager pattern instead:
- app.Dialog.Info()
- app.Dialog.Question()
- app.Dialog.Warning()
- app.Dialog.Error()
- app.Dialog.OpenFile()
- app.Dialog.SaveFile()
This aligns dialogs with other runtime managers like app.Window and app.Event.

fix(macos): fix print dialog not opening and add Window.Print() to runtime (#4290)
The print dialog was not opening on macOS because the CGO windowPrint function was passing the wrong pointer type to NSPrintOperation's runOperationModalForWindow method. It was passing the raw void* window instead of the properly cast WebviewWindow* nsWindow.
This also adds a Window.Print() method to the JavaScript runtime, allowing frontend code to trigger the print dialog directly without needing a Go binding.
Changes:
- Fix webview_window_darwin.go to use nsWindow instead of window
- Add WindowPrint constant (51) and handler to messageprocessor_window.go
- Add Print() method to window.ts in the runtime
- Rebuild bundled runtime (runtime.js and runtime.debug.js)
- Add print example in v3/examples/print to demonstrate both Go API and JS runtime methods
- Update API documentation for Window.Print() in both Go and JavaScript references

* All changes are complete. Here's a summary of what was implemented for issue #3896:
## Summary
Added four new WebKit2 load-change events for Linux to match WebKitGTK's documented load-change signals:
### New Events
| Event | ID | WebKit Signal | Description |
|-------|-----|---------------|-------------|
| `WindowLoadStarted` | 1059 | `WEBKIT_LOAD_STARTED` | Fired when page load begins |
| `WindowLoadRedirected` | 1060 | `WEBKIT_LOAD_REDIRECTED` | Fired when a redirect occurs |
| `WindowLoadCommitted` | 1061 | `WEBKIT_LOAD_COMMITTED` | Fired when load is committed |
| `WindowLoadFinished` | 1062 | `WEBKIT_LOAD_FINISHED` | Fired when load completes |
### Files Modified
1. **`v3/pkg/events/events.go`** - Added new event types to `linuxEvents` struct and updated all platform event IDs (Mac, Windows, iOS shifted by +4 to accommodate new Linux events)
2. **`v3/pkg/events/events_linux.h`** - Added C defines for new events
3. **`v3/pkg/application/linux_cgo.go`** - Updated `handleLoadChanged()` to dispatch all four load events
4. **`v3/UNRELEASED_CHANGELOG.md`** - Documented the new feature
### Backward Compatibility
- The existing `WindowLoadChanged` event (1058) continues to fire on `WEBKIT_LOAD_FINISHED` for backward compatibility
- `WindowLoadFinished` also fires on `WEBKIT_LOAD_FINISHED` for consistent naming with the new events
Would you like me to commit these changes?
* These are the remaining changes that need to be committed - the generator properly updated:
1. `events.txt` - source of truth for events
2. `event_types.ts` - TypeScript runtime types for JS/TS clients
3. `events_darwin.h` - Mac C header with updated event IDs
4. `events_ios.h` - iOS C header with updated event IDs
These are the final changes needed on top of the previous commit. Would you like me to commit these changes?

LoadFinished) rather than a generic LoadChanged that fired on any state.
- Remove WindowLoadChanged from events.go and event_types.ts
- Update linux_cgo.go to only fire WindowLoadFinished
- Update webview_window_linux.go hooks to use WindowLoadFinished
- Regenerate runtime bundles and known_events

2. Added `generate:dotdesktop` as a dependency to `build:docker` task (line 63)
This ensures that the `.desktop` file is generated during every Linux build (both native and Docker-based), not just during packaging operations.
### How it works
- When running `wails build` or `wails dev` on Linux, the build process now automatically generates a `.desktop` file at `build/linux/<app-name>.desktop`
- The `.desktop` file contains:
- Application name
- Executable path
- Icon reference
- Categories (defaulting to "Development")
- This allows Linux desktop environments to properly display the application icon and metadata even during development
### Testing
To test the changes:
1. Create a new Wails v3 project: `wails3 init -n testapp`
2. Build it: `cd testapp && wails3 build`
3. Verify the `.desktop` file exists: `cat build/linux/testapp.desktop`
Would you like me to run a test or make any additional changes?

The pathToURI function was using url.PathEscape which incorrectly
escapes forward slashes (/ -> %2F). This caused file URIs like:
/home/angaz -> file://%2Fhome%2Fangaz (broken)
File managers couldn't parse these malformed URIs correctly, causing
them to open the wrong directory (often a parent directory).
Fixed by using url.URL struct to properly construct file URIs:
/home/angaz -> file:///home/angaz (correct)
Spaces and other special characters are still properly escaped.

* fix: prevent window menu crash on Wayland by realizing window before showing
On Wayland with GTK3, the appmenu-gtk-module tries to set DBus properties
for global menu integration before the window is fully realized, causing
a crash with the error "GDK_IS_WAYLAND_WINDOW (window) assertion failed".
The fix calls gtk_widget_realize() before gtk_widget_show_all() to ensure
the window has a valid GdkWindow when the menu system accesses it.
This fix is applied to both the CGO and purego implementations.

The debug() and info() methods were using fmt.Sprintf() which expects
printf-style format directives, but callers were using slog-style
key-value pairs. Changed to pass args directly to Logger.Debug/Info
which properly handles structured logging.

* fix: add build tag to main.m to prevent Go from compiling it on non-iOS platforms
Go's toolchain tries to process .m (Objective-C) files when they're in a
directory with Go files. Adding a //go:build ios tag tells Go to only
process this file when building for iOS, matching how darwin .m files
handle this (e.g., //go:build darwin && !ios).

This commit integrates iOS platform support for Wails v3, adapting the
iOS-specific code to work with the new transport layer architecture.
Key changes:
- Add iOS-specific application, webview, and runtime files
- Add iOS event types and processing
- Add iOS examples and templates
- Update messageprocessor to handle iOS requests
- Move badge_ios.go to dock package
Note: The iOS branch was based on an older v3-alpha and required
significant conflict resolution due to the transport layer refactor
(PR #4702). Some iOS-specific code may need further adaptation:
- processIOSMethod needs to be implemented with new RuntimeRequest signature
- iOS event generation in tasks/events/generate.go needs updating

* fix(v3): fixed update plist, close https://github.com/wailsapp/wails/issues/4636
* chore: update changelog
* feat: add recursive merge support for nested plist dictionaries
Previously, the plist merge was shallow - nested dictionaries were
completely replaced rather than recursively merged. This caused custom
nested configurations to be lost during build asset updates.
Now nested dictionaries are recursively merged, preserving custom keys
at all levels while still allowing new keys to be added and existing
keys to be updated.

* refactor: replace temp directory with backup-based plist merge
Instead of extracting to a temp directory and copying files over,
we now:
1. Rename existing plists to .plist.bak
2. Extract new assets directly to target
3. Merge backup content into newly extracted plists
4. Clean up backup files
This is simpler, more crash-safe (backups remain if process crashes),
and avoids the overhead of a temp directory and file copying.
