1.13.1 / 2020-06-09 ------------------- Changed: * Revert use of `ucrtbase.dll` as default C library on Windows-MINGW. `ucrtbase.dll` is still used on MSWIN target. #790 * Test for `ffi_prep_closure_loc()` to make sure we can use this function.

This fixes compatibility with stdlib `mkmf` . #776 Removed: * Reject callback with `:string` return type at definition, because it didn't work so far and is not save to use. #751, #782 1.12.2 / 2020-02-01 ------------------- * Fix possible segfault at FFI::Struct#[] and []= after GC.compact . #742 1.12.1 / 2020-01-14 ------------------- Added: * Add binary gem support for ruby-2.7 on Windows 1.12.0 / 2020-01-14 ------------------- Added: * FFI::VERSION is defined as part of `require 'ffi'` now.
