I have downloaded and built the gnash code and now am looking to begin making some changes. I am a renegade Windows programmer (almost 20 years!) and I am still trying to learn the Linux/GNU environment, so please be patent.
1. Can I use configure to make a version of gnash that doesn't have a GUI? How? I want to use it as a plug-in and provide the display myself. 2. I have found the video_stream_instance:display() that calls gnash::render::drawVideoFrame() in the appropriate backend support library. I am interested in simply grabbing the raw RGB image for display elsewhere (after some further manipulation). There is a comment about if m_def == NULL being constructed by 'new Video' and no display call that *MIGHT* be what I need (the no video display). How can I find out about that Video mode? I don't mind writing a simple video backend that calls back to some function and passes the RGB image if that is needed. 3. (Really dumb question). I *THINK* that I have configured and made a full debug build (I passed the CFLAGS=-g CXXFLAGS=-g to make). How do I run gdb (or any recommended debugger) and what/where is the executable to debug? I mainly see shell scripts. Do I need a -D option to pause execution to allow gdb to attach to the process? (I have read *A LOT* of code in the last couple of days and forgotten where I saw what.) 4. I ran make INSTALL on the first build, so that is completely installed (and works). How do I control the debugging version to only use (and find) my debug libraries? A simple pointer to a doc would be great. I think that I found a bug, though it might just be an unsupported SWF opcode(s). In a particular SWF, you have to click on things in the video and the SWF responds. Well, something doesn't work and the video doesn't update. If someone will give me some pointers where to begin looking (like maybe where the mouse messages are routed? It acts like the flash isn't getting/processing those events) I will debug it and, if I do find and fix a bug, submit it for inclusion. Thank you VERY MUCH for your work and patience, Chuck Crisler _______________________________________________ Gnash-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnash-dev
