Gtk-- 1.2.2 -------------- Gtk-- is a C++ interface for the popular GUI library gtk. Gtk-- provides convenient interface for C++ programmers to create graphical user interfaces with gtk's flexible OO framework. Highlights include typesafe callbacks, widgets extensible using inheritance and over 110 classes that can be freely combined to quickly create complex user interfaces. Gtk-- is free software distributed under GNU Library General Public License (LGPL). Time for another gtk-- maintainence release. Unfortunately, once again it appears that gcc isn't all it is cracked up to be. There is an error in the handling of dynamic cast and constructors such that an calls to dynamic cast during construction of a multiply inherited gets the incorrect function. Oh what a joy to attempt to track down. This bug will require an C++ ABI change to fix. The word from the gcc developers is no time soon. Thus gtk-- will route around internals to avoid it. Anyone attempting to use MI with gtk-- should upgrade as soon as possible. Additionally, my wife recently had a baby and thus my time is a bit short for the moment. Since even before the departure of Guillaume, Gtk-- needs more people to help run it. Gtk-- needs another comaintainer to help integrate patchs, run the mailling list, coordinate volunteers to tasks, and do web page updates. As always we need an endless stream of bodies to help with getting the documentation done. If any of these tasks sound interesting please mail the gtk-- list with your qualifications.

Earlier versions should be discarded. Use of old version with multiple inheritence will cause segfaults! _______________________________________________ gtk-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
