Release notes for version 3.5 {#news}
[TOC]
New features {#features}
Unlimited mouse buttons {#unlimited_mouse_buttons}
GLFW now has an input mode which allows an unlimited number of mouse buttons to be reported by the mouse buttton callback, rather than just the associated mouse button tokens. This allows using mouse buttons with values over 8. For compatibility with older versions, the @ref GLFW_UNLIMITED_MOUSE_BUTTONS input mode needs to be set to make use of this.
EGLConfig native access function {#eglconfig}
GLFW now provides the @ref glfwGetEGLConfig native access function for querying
the EGLConfig of a window that has a EGLSurface.
GLXFBConfig native access function {#glxfbconfig}
GLFW now provides the @ref glfwGetGLXFBConfig native access function for
querying the GLXFBConfig of a window that has a GLXWindow.

Original MinGW support has been removed {#original_mingw}
Support for the now unmaintained original MinGW distribution has been removed.
This does not apply to the much more capable MinGW-w64, which remains fully supported. MinGW-w64 can build both 32- and 64-bit binaries, is actively maintained and available on many platforms.
