The `BOOL` and `NONE` keywords have been deprecated for 17 years — they were deprecated when glib-genmarshal was added to the GLib repository. Older versions of GTK+ still use those keywords because they haven't been touched in years, and people cargo-culted their way out of these things. The deprecation warnings are there to let people know that copy-pasting from old projects does not imply that things will never change. :-) Ciao, Emmanuele. -- https://www.bassi.io [@] ebassi [@gmail.com] _______________________________________________ gtk-devel-list mailing list gtk-devel-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-devel-list
