Re: GtkTable is deprecated
Hi! GtkGrid should be pretty much a drop-in replacement for GtkTable. Keep in mind that GtkGrid uses the align and expand flags of GtkWidget[2][3][4][5] instead of having expand and fill child properties. As always, should you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask. This is a massive change to existing GtkBuilder .ui files so I would suggest that somebody able to do xml and/or sed/grep magic would write a script that just replaces GtkTable with GtkGrid in existing .ui files. If that is included in gtk+ it would a lot of peoples lives easier. (Or of course, Javier could fix all modules in GNOME Git but I somehow doubt that he has the time...)

There is no super-urgent need to rid the world of GtkTables - unless you want your module to compile with disabled deprecations. ___ desktop-devel-list mailing list desktop-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list

Re: GtkTable is deprecated
If GtkTable and GtkGrid were replaceable by a sed expression, I don't think we would have bothered breaking API.

If that is included in gtk+ it would a lot of peoples lives easier. I am not sure that a simple script - and it'd probably be easy enough to get a simple one going with some XSLT - because you need to fix the expand and align flags of your widgets, and that means setting flags on completely different widgets in the widget tree. That transition is a thing I'd love to have seen tackled more by app authors btw, but so far it wasn't necessary, so nobody bothered. GtkBox and GtkTable didn't lose these flags in the transition to GTK3 after all. Also, keep in mind that UI files won't cause deprecation warnings during compilation. So unless you have code that live-edits tables, your code will still continue to compile and run fine for the time being.

GtkTable is deprecated
Hey everyone, So now with GNOME 3.2 out, it's time to make GTK break builds again. So I deprecated GtkTable in GTK master[1]. GtkTable is turned more and more problematic as GTK 3 evolves and the implementations of height-for-width improved, which GtkTable does not support. So we were ending up with more and more bugs about tables allocating way too much space for widgets (feel free to ask the Empathy guys about it ;)). GtkGrid should be pretty much a drop-in replacement for GtkTable. Keep in mind that GtkGrid uses the align and expand flags of GtkWidget[2][3][4][5] instead of having expand and fill child properties. As always, should you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask.
