guile-gnome releases: platform 2.7.96, bunch of "extras"

guile-gnome releases: platform 2.7.96, bunch of "extras"

[Andy Wingo]

Hey all,

[ CC to guile-user, because of all of the new libraries ]

I've got a few new releases up at
http://download.gna.org/guile-gnome/releases/.

* guile-gnome-platform-2.7.96

  For the unacquainted, this is the set of wrappers for the GNOME 
  Developer Platform (see [1]). This includes Gtk+ (and pango, atk, 
  etc), orbit, libgnome[ui], libglade, libgnomecanvas, etc. The only
  wrappers that get built are the ones whose prereqs you have.

  Changes:
    Packaging
      - configure now croaks when you don't explicitly give a --prefix,
        so that users don't mistakenly assume that the default inst
        location is in the default load path
      - Misc. autogen-pkg.sh changes, probably only interesting to rotty
      - Running configure reports which modules will be built, erroring
        out if no prereq is satisfied.
    Docs
      - Make a @direntry for the info stuff
    GLib
      - There's a new module, (gnome-0), that selects the version
        of guile-gnome to use. You can launch guile-gnome either with
        the guile-gnome-0 wrapper or use (gnome-0) before other 
        (gnome ...) modules.
      - GIOChannel fixes (Jan)
    Gtk
      - New GdkEvent getters (Jan)
    GnomeCanvas
      - Support for beziers (Jan)

I decided to pull out those "extra" wrapsets (those that are not part of
the gnome platform) into tarballs of their own, not an -extra tarball.
So, these are the first releases of the libraries below.

* D-BUS - guile-gnome-dbus-0.2.0.tar.gz
* GStreamer - guile-gnome-gstreamer-0.8.0.tar.gz
* GtkSourceView - guile-gnome-gtksourceview-1.0.0.tar.gz
* libwnck - guile-gnome-libwnck-2.8.0.tar.gz
* libpanel-applet - guile-gnome-panel-applet-2.8.0.tar.gz
* evolution-data-server - guile-gnome-evolution-data-server-1.0.0.tar.gz

The last two are particularly unstable. The first three should just
work, and I haven't really touched the fourth. Docs are scarce though.

Cheers,

Hi Andy,

just to let you know, the configure script has a little problem, since
it knows that on my machine it's not finding:

	...
	checking for gnome-vfs-2.0 >= 2.8.0... Requested 'gnome-vfs-2.0 >= 2.8.0' but version of gnome-vfs is 2.6.2
	...
	checking for libgnomeui-2.0 >= 2.8.0... Requested 'libgnomeui-2.0 >= 2.8.0' but version of libgnomeui is 2.6.1.1
	...

but the repport comes out with empty line, here it is:

	...
	configure: Some packages will not be built.

	These wrappers will be built:
	  pango libgnomecanvas libgnome libglade gtk glib gconf corba atk

	These wrappers failed their prerequisites and will NOT be built:
	  

	Check the README files in the above subdirectories for more information
	on the prerequisites of a package.

	configure: creating ./config.status
	...
	
also, I have the opinion that this report should be 'printed' at the very end, so that users don't have to scroll up to find it ...

Cheers,
David

ps: I guess 2.8.x libs are unstable libs, because I'm using a debian
sid/sarge and have requested testing packages to be installed? if this
is the case, too bad, but then i'll wait

Very nice!  Is guile-gnome now recommended rather than guile-gtk?  (I 
know the webpage says that there was an amicable split, but it seems 
that it would make sense to have an agreed position on the future, and 
to avoid duplicating work.)

That's a bit complex:

guile-gtk wraps gtk-1.2 only, and is quite stable.  Inexplicably,
there are no releases or tarballs available.  I made my own from CVS
so I could make a pkgsrc entry.  I am aware of no plans to upgrade
guile-gtk for gtk-2.0.

guile-gnome wraps gtk-2 and also gnome, and can do CORBA from
ORBit-2's imodule files.  So it really does something far more than
what guile-gtk does.

I am using guile-gnome for a new project, since guile-gtk is both
static and wraps obsolete/deprecated libs.

guile-gnome is not yet stable, but seems very close.

I was able to port a program that used guile-gtk to guile-gnome very
quickly.

Re: guile-gtk

[Bill Schottstaedt]

Another choice is libxm which has support for all versions
of gtk since 2.0.

ftp://ccrma-ftp.stanford.edu/pub/Lisp/libxm.tar.gz

(The name refers to Motif which is also supported, as
well as Xt, Xlib, Xpm, openGL, etc).

Re: guile-gtk

[Greg Troxel]

Thanks.  I wasn't aware of this.  It's not a guile-gtk replacement if
it wraps 2.0 rather than 1.2, though - although clearly 2.0 is more
useful to wrap.

[Andy Wingo]

Hey Bill,

> of gtk since 2.0.

It's a different choice indeed, a bit closer to the C.

Some libxm examples from snd-gtk.scm:

  (gtk_range_set_update_policy (GTK_RANGE (GTK_SCALE scale))
                               GTK_UPDATE_CONTINUOUS)

  (g_signal_connect_closure_by_id
   (GPOINTER adj)
   (g_signal_lookup "value_changed" (G_OBJECT_TYPE (GTK_OBJECT adj)))
   0
   (g_cclosure_new
    (lambda (w d) (func (.value (GTK_ADJUSTMENT adj)))) #f #f) #f)))

The same code in guile-gnome would be:

  (set-update-policy scale 'continuous)
  ;; you could use the full name, gtk-range-set-update-policy
  ;; or, with gobject properties, (set scale 'update-policy 'continuous)

  (connect adj 'value-changed
           (lambda (x) (func (gtk-adjustment:value adj)) #f))

So on the one hand, guile-gnome feels more schemey, but on the other,
gtk-adjustment:value doesn't actually exist right now (GtkAdjustment
needs more love). In libxm everything that you have in C should be
available in scheme without extra love.

Regards,
