They make the libraries usable from other languages. In almost all cases, features should be added to the underlying C libs. In most cases they can be automatically added to the bindings. A combination of many clever tools written by binding authors and GObject introspection mean that often, newly added functions/properties/signals can be synchronised to the bindings automatically, with the only human intervention being to run a script that does so. Occasionally, a binding will add a small convenience feature, or wrapping a C function/property/signal requires hand-written code, or etc. But usually, if you want a new feature, you really want it in the wrapped libraries, not the wrappers... as, I'm sure, do people who use the C libraries or prefer to use other languages' bindings. ___ gtkmm-list mailing list gtkmm-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtkmm-list
Re: gtkmm compilation issue via jhbuild
Thank you, D.B. Could someone, please, explain briefly the overall model for glib/gtkmm/libgdamm feature implementation? I mean, if I want to introduce some features, I can provide a patch. It is clear. But where should I implement my changes: gtk+gtkmm or there is a mechanism to add features directly to gtkmm avoiding gtk. It will help me better understand methodology of the aforementioned libraries. Thanks. ___ gtkmm-list mailing list gtkmm-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtkmm-list

Re: gtkmm compilation issue via jhbuild
jhbuild builds cairomm 1.15.1 from a tarball, but gtkmm at present requires the latest cairomm from the git repository. See https://www.cairographics.org/cairomm/ for instructions how to get cairomm from git. Do you know that gtkmm and gtk+ are now unusually unstable? They will become gtkmm-4.0 and gtk+-4.0, which will not be ABI-compatible with gtkmm-3.0 and gtk+-3.0. If you want less unstable programs, you can build gtkmm-3 with jhbuild.
