Re: Cairo and gtkmm
Murray Cumming wrote: I remember some talk a while ago about Cairo and gtkmm. Does anybody know the status of this? Will the cairo API be exposed in gtkmm anytime soon? Is there a timeframe for this sort of thing. There isn't much to expose. I think there are 2 or 3 functions, such as one to provide a cairo surface on which you can use cairo functions. That will be wrapped faster if someone provides a patch. An at some point we need to bless a cairo C++ API, if the C API is not incredibly easy. I haven't looked at it yet and, and usual, I hope someone else does it. I've got Cairo working fine in c++, albeit another toolkit - I couldn't figure out the cairo surface hook in gtkmm, so we need a better gtkmm programmer to chip in here - but you're right, it shouldn't be too hard. But it should get top priority - what is needed is a good example (either in the sample programs or in the tutorial). ___ gtkmm-list mailing list gtkmm-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtkmm-list
Re: best way to use multiple windows
Well, it is heap vs stack - I am not sure which is really better for
normal gui applications. But I have always created my dialogs as
pointers - it just seems more traditional c++.
MyPopupDialog *dlg = new MyPopupDialog(...) {
//set dialog to modal (but it can sometimes get hidden by other
// dialog which is annoying
// set up dialog display here
// let okay/cancel buttons set return variable flag and hide dialog
onokaybutton() {
returnFlag = 1;
dlg-hide();
}
// if flag true can have code engine or main dialog still read
// values from popup dlg here
delete dlg;
I find it is not too difficult to match the delete with the new.
Armin Burgmeier wrote:
Hi,
my approach to this is to derive such windows from Gtk::Dialog and to
add two buttons with Gtk::RESPONSE_OK and Gtk::RESPONSE_CANCEL. To show
the dialog, simply do
MyDialog dialog(*this, foo, bar);
if(dialog.run() == Gtk::RESPONSE_OK)
{
// Take settings into main app
}
Gtk::Dialog::run blocks in a main loop until the user closes the window
by either pressing one of the buttons or closing the window (which fits
perfectly if you want modal windows). After your function returns, the
dialog will be destroyed automatically as it runs out of scope, so you
do not have to worry about memory management.

Why not let the compiler Yeah, I think c++ in general is pretty dangerous:) And I guess that's why there is java and C#. I'm always open to better ideas. Whatever is the fastest, simplest, cleanest. We've always called all our widgets with pointers as well, since we've never really taken the time to figure out what the memory hit is, especially if there are a few layers of dialogs open as per the original question in the thread and not sure what happens if one of the widgets is a 500 mb image. But your idea of the dialog container on stack but widgets on heap would be efficient if it doesn't cause other problems - and I guess you're saying gtkmm takes care of that. John do the dirty work? Remember that just the gtkmm instances like a Gtk::Dialog are created on the stack, but they create their underlaying GTK+ objects on the heap. This method seems to be the C++ way for me.

Re: glademm
Yeah, I call the whole gtkmm situation Anti-RAD which is okay if you do not have any time pressure or much GUI but unproductive/uncompetitive if you are in a commercial environment with a lot of GUI. Check out Anjuta 2 with the glade plug-in - it is headed in the right direction, but seems a ways off for production use. btw I've used all these toolkits. Qt and FLTK have their advantages but are only what I call Semi-RAD. Delphi and VisualStudio.Net are indeed very RAD but have their own limitations (no MVC separation, Windows only, not the nice layout manager). Like many things Apple, XCode seems the way programming ought to be - but sadly it's only for Apple. Of course real programmers say they are just as productive in vi but, in actuality, the overall resulting low productivity is why more and more coding is being offshored to low cost areas. Until we have a gtkmm, with an enhanced Anjuta 2, with some UML like capabilities, with gtkmm wrapped gtk basic extras (like gtkhtml or mozembed), and with the nice documentation of XFC, well, pick your poison. Foster, Gareth wrote: It's an ordeal. You got to figure, if glademm hasn't been included in FC4 extras, there must be a reason for that. The glademm project seems dead.

I used to work with Delphi, where code was generated for me and I filled in the stubs, just like glademm, the slight change of mindset (glademm - libglademm) was troublesome, but you just have to get stuck in and work the way the rest of the Gnome community does (where they have good reason of course). Try not to let sentiments such as well, I always worked that way on Windows stop you from using gtk/glade. It's the same story with IDE managed projects and Autotools really.

Re: gtkmm and gcc 4.0
Thks for the info. So, it sounds like my idea of waiting a bit before switching to 4.0 is a good one (unless one wants to do a lot of recompiling of gtkmm, dependencies, etc which in my case, I did not do and do not want to tackle right now). As far as the dependencies go, I still think it is something that should be addressed. To some degree, Debian does this (it lists dependencies and goes thru somewhat a testing process, Ubuntu goes a step further by using a 6 mo cycle of packages somewhat tested to work together). To me the best process would be to have a development studio or bundle so that every gtkmm version is tested with a known set of dependant libraries, ie gtkmm 2.8.0 might ship listed with gtk 2.8.1 and glib 2.8.0 whatever. Then if upgrades go wrong, there is a benchmark to fall back to. In the current gtk 2.6.x series we have seen some changes go in, then get reverted out - did that affect the stability of gtkmm? Probably not, but it could. Personally, that's the reason I would prefer static builds of gtkmm and our resulting programs, and though GPL licensing might be a problem, with disk space so cheap and available, who cares if the studio takes up 100 mb - let the compiler and program sort out only including what's needed. Any agreement?

Debian is currently using GCC 3.3 with libstdc++5. We will, in a few weeks, switch to GCC 4.0 and libstdc++6. At this point all the C++ libraries will need to be rebuilt, and these problems will go away. It's not possible to use multiple versions of libstdc++ in one program, so linking a library built against libstdc++5 with a program built with GCC 4.x is going to be dodgy.

Gtk::Widget is a Gtkmm object which is actually a

gtk_widget_toplevel() returns a GtkWidget* NOT a

Nalin Singal wrote:
Sorry for breaking up the reply.
Regarding the reorderable columns. When you do
menuColumns.id.set_reorderable(), you are trying to
set the column in the treeModel as reoderable. But
actually the column in the treeView is the one which
should be reorderable. Remember there are two
different sets of columns - one in the treemodel and
one in the treeview which are backed up by the
treemodel columns. So the columns in the treeview are
the ones which can be reordered and not the ones in
the treemodel because reordering is just a view thing.
So as you are doing the for loop, get the column you
want to set as reorderable from the treeview and call
set_reorderable on it.
Hope this helps :)

Paul,
thks for the code outline. I have also been struggling with using a gtk

not seen, maybe this code could be cleaned up a bit with comments, etc to

useful and also make a great addition to the gtkmm tutorial.

Could it be related to the eventbox containing an image ?

Re: displaying html
Not that I know - it is a real missing component. However, about a month ago someone posted some comments about how he wrapped the C version of gtkhtml - you might search for it Displaying simple HTML... - I just have not had the time to work with the code pieces - maybe it can be turned into a well-documented how-to. gtkhtml handles basic html - it is used by Evolution. The other approach is to use mozembed - probably a more complete browser but that too needs to be wrapped and requires all the mozilla libs to be included.

Re: std::function ?
Thks for keeping us abreast. Gtkmm is all about C++ and to me, the C++ committee is totally missing the big picture, which limits gtkmm. Whether it's the language, or the toolkit, or the ide, I don't see any progress here that's going to speed up our production 1.1x much less 3x with less bugs while maintaining decent performance, but that's what we really need and have to be headed towards. The C++ committee has not advanced any significant ease of use improvements in the last 8 years or so since STL was adopted, meanwhile java, c#, python, ruby, XUL, Objective C are all moving forward. In the link, Sutter asks what if there were different flavors of string - duh guess what, every toolkit now has it's own string class now because the C++ group hasn't modernized to accomodate UTF-8. so now we have string, std::string, ustring(Gtkmm), Qstring(Qt), FxString(Fox). At least Walter Bright's D is much more progressive, too bad it doesn't seem to be totally backward compatible. Maybe we should be working towards gtkdd - it would be moving forward, not maintaining status quo.

Re: Cross-Platform GUI
I've looked into this extensively and one of these days will finish up my blog writeup on it. For now: There are plusses and minuses for each - make a list of the most important things you need and see how they compare. Fltk - pretty simple to use. Nice small, static compiles. Dialogs are easy to code but not the best looking. There is no layout manager, just a awkward resizable command. Awkward, static callbacks instead of signal, slots. No major backers or major projects using it. Most examples and documentation are C style. I never really understood Fluid as a dialog editor. wxWidgets - didn't explore too much after looking at code - I guess if you are coming from Visual C++ it might look more familar. I've read some comments against it, other comments that say it works great - I believe Audacity uses it. Seems to be a viable option. There's also Fox toolkit - seems to have excellent Ruby bindings. No Mac support. Seemed pretty ugly. Supported mostly by 1 person (though he is very responsive). No dialog editor. Gtkmm - gtk is being backed by most major Linux players (Red Hat, Novell, Sun ) And of course Gnome, XFCE, all the Gtk apps. Gtkmm is very c++ like. Uses the excellent libsigc for signal/slots. Has a very good layout manager. Confusing library dependencies but uses Pkg-Config to make compiling easy. Use XFC documentation, it's much better. (XFC is a great library too, but only for Linux). Gtk apps certainly being used on Windows. Mac ?? not too sure - maybe others can comment. Depending on your situation - you might want to look at Qt - it's a good, easy to use toolkit. Very cross-platform, excellent documentation. Good looking. Very C++ oriented. The moc signal stuff is non C++ but works well. Moc causes Qt to be slow to compile. Well supported. As someone who has to sign the checks, I think it is way too expensive for our use but it's your call. Don't forget java SWT - the advances of gcj may bring native compilation of Swing. And the next version is supposed to support native widgets. Bottom Line: We chose gtkmm based mostly on the industry support for gtk, the free license, the layout manager abilities, the availability of glade (though we're not using it yet), and libsigc. If XFC becomes cross-platform we will strongly consider it (both use mostly the same gtk wrapper commands). hope this helps.

Re: problem with custom menu
Huh? I'm simply trying to build a simple menu and ::attach with the table coordinates is exactly what is in the gtkmm API documentation (under widgets/menu) and what compiles (menu-append will not compile for me). I don't want to use actions for several reasons related to what other widgets I want on a toolbar and besides, simple menus should be just as little coding as using all the action statements and xml descriptions. I got the feeling that the ::attach with table coordinates was new in 2.4 but I am not trying to debate that - I simply cannot attach/append, whatever, sub items to my file menu and there are no examples with attach so I would appreciate any help trying to get this to work. Yes, it should not be difficult, I am not trying to do anything strange here.

Erik,
thks for the post - using gtkhtml will be really useful for some of us. I'm
trying to get this working in a small demo program but struggling:
1) which libs did you include when you compiled?
2) still not sure how you combined the simple c program under gtkmm - could
you post the complete code listing (or email it). thks
I've declared a class gtkhtml, which is a sub class of Gtk::ScrolledWindow.
In this code module, I just include the simple.c source code file like so:
extern C
{
# include simple.c
};
And make sure to either remove or commnet out the int main( int argc,
char** argv) code
Below is the class' CTOR:
gtkhtml::gtkhtml( void )
: ScrolledWindow()
{
// Set properties
g_object_set( G_OBJECT( gtk_html_context_get () ), debug_painting,
FALSE, NULL);
// Create the document
document = html_document_new();
g_signal_connect( G_OBJECT( document ), request_url, G_CALLBACK(
url_requested ), NULL );
g_signal_connect( G_OBJECT( document ), link_clicked, G_CALLBACK(
link_clicked ), NULL );
// And the view
view = html_view_new();
html_view_set_document( HTML_VIEW( view ), document );
g_signal_connect( G_OBJECT( view ), request_object, G_CALLBACK(
request_object ), NULL );
// ScrolledWindow that's hosting is already created.
// Now wrap and add the Gtkhtml widget to the ScrolledWindow
Gtk::Widget* GtkmmView = Glib::wrap( view );
add( *GtkmmView );
GtkmmView-show();
}
And finally, is the LoadFile method, where you can load a file from local
disk and display it in the ScrolledWindow.
void gtkhtml::LoadFile( char* Filename )
{
load_file( Filename );
}
The only other thing is that I had to hack the
/usr/include/gtkhtml-2.0/libgtkhtml/css/cssstylesheet.h header file, 'cause
the structure below had a field called 'class', which g++ didn't like, so I
renamed it '_class':
struct _CssTail {
CssTailType type;
union {
struct {
HtmlAtom att;
CssAttrMatch match;
CssAttrVal val;
} attr_sel;
struct {
HtmlAtom id;
} id_sel;
struct {
HtmlAtom _class;
} class_sel;
struct {
HtmlAtom name;
} pseudo_sel;
} t;
