     C++ APIs
     --------
-    -
+    - Due to the change in the C API, the overloaded functions of
+      PropList::setProperty now need const for some arguments.  They are
+      planned for deprecation and are replaced by new versions with proper
+      consts. (PR #344 -BMR, 2017/03/20)
+
+    - The problem where a user-defined function cannot access both, attribute
+      and dataset, using only one argument (HDFFV9920) is now fixed.
