Bonobo probably uses GtkPlug/GtkSocket, which have no implementation on DirectFB. I suggest you dig into bonobo to see if that is correct, and then implement these (if possible at all). > I wanted to Know what will be the implications of removing/decoupling > bonobo from evolution package. > Is it possble to replace Bonobo functionality by appropriate > substitutes at the Gdk layer.. One of the long-term goals is to remove Bonobo entirely, but it's a lot of work. Your best bet is to add some debugging hooks into the stub GtkPlug/GtkSocket source to see if they are being called, which would explain your problem.

Hi ... Thanks for your valuable insight regarding this issue. As regard with the broken bonobo build..my make log /install log shows no errors.n gets built smoothly.. and even evolution runs but with many things missing in the UI as mentioned earlier... So i understand that this strikes out the possibility of a bad/broken build in bonobo.. I wanted to Know what will be the implications of removing/decoupling bonobo from evolution package. Is it possble to replace Bonobo functionality by appropriate substitutes at the Gdk layer.. I need a deeper understanding in this regard...Plzz help...

Whether this is due to a bad build, broken configuration, or it just doesn't work on DirectFB, I don't know.

You might just have a broken install of gtkhtml, which will make itself obvious with errors on the console. Alternatively you are probably hitting widgets which use Bonobo, which as far as I'm aware uses widget reparenting which will either never work or needs to be implemented on DirectFB.

[Evolution-hackers] Issues in porting evolution mail client to directfb backend :Help Nedded.....
Hi, I am trying to port evolution mail client to Directfb backend. I have replaced X11 calls with corresponding Gdk/Gtk function calls, found in evolution and its dependent libraries so as to remove linkage to xlib. Now I can run the application with DFB backend but when there is a requirement of 2/3 windows(like Edit box,folder view etc) to be displayed all together , i am not able to see these together. Also, Tool bar is not displayed properly , certain icons in the tool bar are missing. *even while composing email _message_ edit_ box_ is missing.* while configuring the email client,Preferences part is not working properly. Pls give some pointers for the same. Any suggestion or Links in this regard will be of great help. Thanking you'll in advance...
