Copying that together with config.sub and ltmain.sh does cure the need
for specifying host etc.

This does not seem to be cured, however.  Making libdl.lib a symlink to
libdl.dylib (for testing) doesn't change a thing, either.  I notice,
though, that libdl only exists in my /sw (fink) directory.  Should it be
part of the normal compilation system?

You might try copying config.guess from /usr/local/share/libtool into 
your Dia project directory (overwriting the one currently there).

What seem to be happening is that the linker is looking for libdl.lib, 
but should instead be looking for libdl.dylib.

Arthur,

Yes, although slowly. Andy and I are kept busy on other projects (FCP and 
CinePaint respectively). I hope I'll be able to find more time soon. Many 
people volunteer to help us with GTK+OSX, and help is appreaciated when we 
get it.

> Will GTK 2 ever be supported?

The GTK2 project is very active. However, they have nobody working on a Mac 
port. Supporting GTK2 would be beyond our mandate. Work on GTK2 is best done 
at gtk.org against the official GTK2 CVS.

The purpose of GTK+OSX, and the reason we're here as an independent project 
from gtk.org, is to complete the orphaned GTK1 port of the Mac. We don't 
have the bandwidth to undertake that.

This is the only GTK Mac port that's alive.

Re: [gtk+osx] About GTK-OSX Status

[Arthur W. <ar...@gm...>]

OK, so that explains it :)

Well to tell you the truth I would write GTK apps using PHP and Python
simply because I can. They probably wouldn't be better though but you
never know.

The major reason for a GTK+ OS X port like I said would be for
porting. I tried converting BitTorrent 4.0.0 which has switched to
pyGTK, to wxPython but decided in the end it was easier to write a new
GUI.
Such is life.

Well, I'm biased, I'm a developer on the PyObjC project.  I do use

Re: [gtk+osx] About GTK-OSX Status

[Arthur W. <ar...@gm...>]

Hey Bob, I was more into porting current applications using GTK to OS
X. Unless there were some really good advantages, I wouldn't write a
new app using GTK or pyGTK unless there were some big advantages. But
it's easier to port GTK to OS X than port each individual GTK app to a
different toolkit.

And I have tried PyObjC but use wxPython instead because it's cross
platform while PyObjC is OS X only.

There are plenty of better alternatives for GUI development on OS X.  
PyObjC, wxPython, etc.  For new code, it doesn't really make sense to 
go through all the trouble of trying to make GTK do something that it 
doesn't.

Re: [gtk+osx] About GTK-OSX Status

[Arthur W. <ar...@gm...>]

That's sort of what I expected. What we need is someone who has good
leading skills to get a group of developers together and get an OS X
port in little time.
GTK+ is getting to be more popular all the time, and for good reason.
I'm sure there are more people who would rather not run X11 under Mac
OS X all the time.

Cairo is getting to be pretty good. It is now used my Mozilla for
cross platform SVG rendering and works just fine on my Mac.

(Me thinks to myself it's time to learn some C, and friends so I can help)
I only know Python and PHP. GTK+ on OS X would let me write better GUI
applications through PHP-GTK and pyGTK.

I have offered to give scripting support (Lua bindings) for an OS X 
GTK+ implementation.  Have the same dilemma as you - it seems there's 
no project taking the challenge right now.  My bet is on the Cairo

So.. that's all I can offer.

[John B. <nou...@gm...>]

   I was asked to post the info by someone on the list and I figured I 
would. Its always nice to be able to compile your own gtk apps if you 
want to test your work with gtk running natively under os x.

This should work under Fink. If not, you may want to try asking on one of
the fink lists, since they handle GTK+-on-X11 issues all the time. (As
Andy mentioned, gtk+osx aims to eliminate the need for X11 when running
GTK+ on OS X, and the gtk+ packages distributed via Fink all require an
X11 server to run.)

I'm confused as to why this worked... Fink shouldn't have include files i=
n
/sw/lib.

Not sure if this was a cut-n-paste error, but you probably want to put a
space between the two backtick expressions (i.e. "` `", not "``").

Re: [gtk+osx] Compiling GTK Helloworld GTK app on MAC

[Andy P. <en...@li...>]

John,

Thanks for the info.

Just to be clear, the goal of this project is to port gtk+ natively to 
the Mac, by replacing gtk's low level X11 API layer with our own native 
Carbon API layer.  This removes any dependence upon fink, darwinports, 
or X11, for gtk+ based apps on the Mac.

There is further documentation as well as example source code, in the 
package on the website, on how to compile and use the gtk-osx distribution.


Thanks,
Andy

[gtk+osx] Compiling GTK Helloworld GTK app on MAC

[John B. <nou...@gm...>]

Hey all,

    This is a down and dirty guide to compiling some of your own custom 
gtk apps on your machine. First and foremost you need to have Fink and 
X11 installed along with X11 sdk.
The sdk can be found in the xtools developer package. Once you have all 
those things downloaded you will want to download and install all the 
"gtk+" files you see when you do a "fink list". Once thats complete the 
tutorial for compiling gtk apps will tell you to use the following 
command to compile your gtk helloworld.c.

gcc -Wall -g helloworld.c -o helloworld `pkg-config --cflags 
gtk+-2.0``pkg-config --libs gtk+-2.0`

make sure you change it to this

gcc -Wall -g helloworld.c -o helloworld `pkg-config --cflags 
gtk+-2.0``pkg-config --libs gtk+-2.0` -I/sw/lib

note the difference on the end is -I/sw/lib which is where fink puts 
the gtk libs.
Im not totally sure if you need to download a gtk dependent program 
using either fink or apt-get but you might have too. I think I did gftp 
before I even attempted any of this. In any case I think this should 
work for most of you, if you are having trouble email me and I will try 
and help you. The most important thing to do is try and use fink to 
download and compile a GTK dependent app like gftp and if thats working 
then do the gtk+ libs that I talked about and the compile instructions 
I wrote up above, those things should pretty much guarantee that you 
can compile your own gtk apps and run them with X11

It's my first try to help. It's late night, so I will not try to check if it 
leaks or not (I'm sure it will do, because I did not do anything to 
avoid leaking)

It's ugly, too...

But works well with dillo (yes, you should compile dillo easily with 
gtk-osx), at FOSDEM 2005 dillo guys were excited about gtk-osx 
running dillo.

Really sorry for buggy and surely leaking code, but I hope this will 
help.

Initial Comment:
Here are some fixes to enable cursor manipulation.

• Modified gdkcursor.c to build Mac Cursors based on some code 
lifted from the gtk+ 2.0 for Windows code (similar enough bitmap reps 
for cursors to get this somewhat functioning).

* Added code to gdkwindow.c to make gdk_window_set_cursor() 
functional.

* Added something to gdkprivate.h to keep a pointer to the Mac 
Cursor.

Try it out. Using the gdktestthing project, select the cursors button. 
You should see the X logo cursor drawn (has some background stuff 
wrong, we can tweak the _gdk_mac_data_to_cursor() method to 
make it work properly later. You can change the icon by clicking in the 
defined area.

Enjoy!

Oh, please add me to the project on sourceforge if you would be so 
kind...

     This is my first mailing list in regards to linux development so 
bear with me. I want to work on some open source apps, and possibly one 
of my own for school and for my own personal enjoyment. I am running 
mac os x obviously and I can't seem to figure out how to compile a 
hello world app because when I include gtk/gtk.h I get some basic 
errors. It can't find the right files. In any case, how do I rectify 
this? I have fink and x11 installed properly so I can run X linux apps 
on my comp without any problems (btw this is a dream come true), but 
now I need to start making some and testing them with my mac. Can 
anyone help? I would really appreciate it!

John

PS some sort of configure option for the installing gtk, some sort of 
fink option, some sort of instructions on how to install the directory 
tree that I need in the proper places would be awesome. 

[gtk+osx] gtk make error on OSX 10.2.8

[e j m. <ma...@mi...>]

Hi,
   I'm trying to build gtk-osx-0.7 on a G4 laptop running 10.2.8, with 
Project Builder version 2.1
  (PB IDE: 114.0, PB Core: 112.0 , ToolSupport: 110.0  component 
versions  w/Aug 03 Developer Tools gcc 3.3 installed)
  and get the following error:

sh-2.05a$ make

make: *** No rule to make target `PB.project', needed by 
`/Users/ed/Codes/SourceForge/gtk-osx-0.7/gdk/gdk.framework/Versions/A/Resources/Info-macos.plist'. 
Stop.


   I'm new to Project Builder, so I may have not understood the README 
in the Documentation section.So please excuse the dumb question.

   I first ran Project Builder, selecting "build" for the GDK 
Framework  "Product". I didn't see a "make" command, nor a "make 
install", so I then tried typing "make", thinking that a make had not 
been done yet by Project Builder, but only the building and 
installation of libraries.

   The result is the above error.

   I don't see any reference in the Makefile created by Project 
Builder to the target that's missing, nor do
  I see the file Info-macros.plist in the indicated directory.

   I also tried to double-click the app gtktestthing in 
gtktestthing/build to test if the app worked. It didn't.

   What am I doing wrong ?  Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!  I 
am more familiar with the old command-line syntax of 
""configure"/"make"/"make install". Is "build" equivalent to "make" ? 
And are frameworks just another
word for dynamic, shared libraries ?


Thanks!

[gtk+osx] GTK configure not seeing libjpeg

[Benjamin R. <bra...@ya...>]

The GTK configure script can't find libjpeg, which
I've tried reinstalling multiple times. Jpeg gives no
error on the install, but I get this while running the
GTK configure:

checking for TIFFReadScanline in -ltiff... yes
checking tiffio.h usability... yes
checking tiffio.h presence... yes
checking for tiffio.h... yes
checking for jpeg_destroy_decompress in -ljpeg... no
configure: WARNING: *** JPEG loader will not be built
(JPEG library not found) ***
configure: error:
*** Checks for JPEG loader failed. You can build
without it by passing
*** --without-libjpeg to configure but some programs
using GTK+ may
*** not work properly



Any ideas why GTK isn't seeing this? I'm running OS
10.3.5, and trying to install GTK 2.2.4, and I've
installed jpeg v6b.

Thanks!

[gtk+osx] Xine and MacOSX

[Peter R. <eon...@ma...>]

In the fink unstable depository,  is libXine, a library for  DVD, AVI, 
TV and other multimedia related support.  There are frontends available 
to it using GTK.  I haven't jumped into using the XCode tools yet, but 
do you think it would be rather straight forward to get Xine working 
under MacOSX?

[gtk+osx] problem with focus remaining on destroyed window

[Charles B. <C.C...@dl...>]

Hi,

I am playing with gtkglarea under OS X.  One of the test cases, viewlw, 
closes a window which often has the focus.  When running
outside a debugger the memory pointed to by 
MacCarbonEvents::mac_gwind_grabbed often seems to be legit, so the mouse
events code in mouse_motion_handler() gives a sigsev.  Inside the 
debugger I can confirm that the gdk_window_internal_destroy()
function clears the memory, but then the app does not crash.

The simplest workaround that I have found is to extend the test on line 
201 of MacCarbonEvents.c to also test the values of
mac_gwind_grabbed, and confirm that it is valid by comparing 
mac_gwind_grabbed to mac_gwind_grabbed->magic

e.g.

     if(win_ref && mac_gwind_grabbed && mac_gwin_grabbed == 
mac_gwind_grabbed->magic) {

Ta,

Charles Ballard
