Gtk-- 1.1.5 -------------- 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). Gtk-- finally made the much anticipated change over to namespaces. Thus this version will break all current Gtk-- code. However, after discussion with our users it appears this was one of the most demanded features. This will be the last big code change before we declare our next stable version. Individual interfaces and minor internals may still change to fix bugs, but otherwise we are considered frozen. Gtk-- 1.0.x series is now completely dead, RIP. Gdk-- rework unfortunately did not make the freeze. It has been pushed til Gtk-- 1.3 when hopefully gtk+ has a common base object for gdk internals which will simplify the structure. Gdk-- was not cut over to namespaces to avoid confusing the improved system with the current. Many other fixes have also been added, as well as additions to the tutorial. Namespaces completely killed off perceps, our code documentation system. Expected for next version a fixed documentation system and ironing out the some of the bugs on our todo list.
