[Gimp-developer] ANNOUNCE: Gimp 1.2.2-pre2

2001-06-26 Thread Sven Neumann

Hi,

another prerelease for Gimp-1.2.2 has appeared on the FTP server:

ftp://ftp.gimp.org/pub/gimp/v1.2/testing/gimp-1.2.2-pre2.tar.gz

This is not an official stable Gimp release, but unless users
report problems with this release, the 1.2.2 release will follow
shortly.

This pre-release fixes a number of bugs that were found in the 
1.2.2-pre1 release. I'd be happy if people could test it on a
variety of platforms. If you think you found a bug, please file 
a bug-report at
  
   http://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=GIMP


Salut, Sven

 I'm sure it's enlightenments fault ;-) Perhaps we can do something
 about it anyway...
 
 I've had this problem, and it appears to exist only with the version of
 xwd that's shipped with XFree86 4.0.x where x=2. I upgraded to 4.0.3
 and the problem went away. Same problem (with same version of X) existed
 with WindowMaker too.

Oh dear.  Don't tell me that the GIMP uses xwd for getting
screenshots.  If so, please please *please* feel free to steal the
code from gdk_pixbuf_get_from_drawable().

it does ;-)

The screenshot plug-in is kind of old and has always been a quick hack.
On the other hand it works pretty well for most users... Yes, we are 
considering another solution for the next version of Gimp. Since we will
use GTK+-2.0, we will also use gdk-pixbuf and can thus use the 
functionality gdk-pixbuf provides. For Gimp-1.2 however things will not 
change.

 hasn't timj complained loudly about how broken the code in
 gdk_pixbuf_get_from_drawable is?  Of course the code he wrote for the
 desk guide likes to segfault, so who knows.

Yeah, the function in the stable branch has a number of race
conditions that will bite you if you are doing scary stuff on windows
that you do not control :)

I *think* it has been fixed in GTK+ 1.3, but I am not sure.

[Gimp-developer] what if gimp-file-load fails?

2001-06-26 Thread martinhallmay

Sorry if this seems like a really stupid question, and maybe I am in 
the wrong group anyway, but I would really appreciate it if someone 
could help me out here.

If gimp-file-load fails because the image with the filename specified 
does not exist what happens? My first thought was that the list 
returned would simply be empty, thus
(car (gimp-file-load 1 in-file in-file))
would be null. However, if I try to check this and do something 
conditional upon it being not-null nothing happens.

It would seem, from hours of tortured debugging, that the script 
bombs out before I even get to pick the top element off the list 
returned from gimp-file-load. What gives? 

Thanks in advance.
