Since kaffe 1.1.0, but you need at least 1.1.1 or higher anyway to work
with java-gnome anyway.

When I first tried to get the snark-gnome frontend to work with kaffe I
made a little JNI patch for kaffe:
http://www.kaffe.org/pipermail/kaffe/2003-July/042990.html
This should be in recent versions (kaffe>=3D1.1.1).

[Java-gnome-developer] Help needed

[Jeffrey M. <ku...@zo...>]

So far I have added the jni and glue code for the following new 
objects to the gtk packages from gtk2.3.1:

ColorButton
ComboBox
ComboBoxEntry
EntryCompletion
BindingSet

I also added a couple of new methods to Entry.

I plan to add the jni and glue code for:

FileChooser
FileChooserDialog
FileChooserWidget

Our 2.5.1 tarballs are due on December 22nd.  This means that I
will be creating them in about 48 hours from now.  The question
I have is who is able to work on the public interface to the
above classes?  I would like to see as many of them completed by
the 22nd as possible.

Gnome version, since who will use pure gtk will build the relevant
module only.

But, once done, this should be the best solution for our versioning.

... maybe I wasn't thinking straight when I wrote that.
The gnome modules are versions 2.5, but gtk (2.3) and libglade (2.3) do
not follow.

So really we should have different versions for the libgtk-java and
libglade-java tarballs. But what version do we then give the all-in-one
tarball? This would need a lot of changes to the build scripts (since
they all use the same version variables at the moment).

[Java-gnome-developer] 2.5.1 release plans

[Mark H. <mh...@ca...>]

Hi,
  I'm going away at the weekend and will have no internet access for a
while, so I'll miss the release unless you decide you want it tomorrow.
I think we have everything in place though - it's just a matter of
seeing how many of the new widgets we can add before making the
tarballs. It's great to be getting so many emails about cvs commits. 

I've updated the buildtarballs script so the doc packages should build
fine.
Before making the 2.5.1 tarballs, two files need to be edited:
common/configure.in.version
build/maketarballs.sh
These both list the version as 2.5.0+cvs - they need changing to 2.5.1
The tarballs should build as before with the maketarballs scripts.

I'm not sure about the procedure for releasing to gnome - probably have
to upload to some ftp server somewhere. I guess instructions will be
sent to language-bindings list before the deadline.

AFAIK, the only other thing we have to do is declare our modules to the
gnome bindings list, so they can update the website. I think this is
correct:

cvs branch: HEAD (for all tarballs)

tarball: libgtk-java
CVS: http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/java-gnome/java-gnome/gtk/
Binding for: GTK+, pango, atk, gdk, glib

tarball: libgnome-java
CVS: http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/java-gnome/java-gnome/gnome/
Binding for: libgnome, libgnomeui, libgnomecanvas

tarball: libglade-java
CVS: http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/java-gnome/java-gnome/glade/
Binding for: libglade

tarball: java-gnome-doc-core
CVS: http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/java-gnome/java-gnome/doc-core/

tarball: java-gnome-doc-gnome
CVS: http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/java-gnome/java-gnome/doc-gnome/

tarball: java-gnome-doc-glade
CVS: http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/java-gnome/java-gnome/doc-glade/

Notes:
 - These packages build two ABI's - one for running applications in a
   JVM, one for running applications natively (compiled with gcj)
 - Other bindings are available; More are in the TODO list
 - An all-in-one tarball is also available containing everything. 

Is that correct? should I send it?

I don't see this as such a problem.  Most people who want the development
release (2.5.x) will already be aware of the fact that the 5 means it
is a development stream working toward 2.6.  Perhaps we can go out of our
way on the website to make this obvious.  Users that get the 2.4.x version 
will only be interested in having the latest stable java-gnome release.

Since there will be a stable release each 6 months I am not concerned
with getting ahead of the upstreams.  My concern is getting behind but
I guess we have committed to staying current with the upstream when we
decided to be a part of the bindings release.  As far as the 2.x.y 
my view on the 'y' is stated in the previous paragraph.

The releases are on the site.  We need to update the website to reflect
the latest changes.  Once the announcement is made people will go
to the site to see info regarding the release and to download.  Alberto,
what would it take to get a quick update of the site?

The creation of the doc-core tarballs failed.  It is not included
in the releases on the site yet.  The failure was due to a directory
naming problem.

The md2sums are attached to the email.  There are several additional
items that should be mentioned.  This release included initial gconf
and libgtkhtml support.  Also, I added event handling for the Entry widget
as well as fixing the event handling for other widgets that had 
problems.  Also, there were several bug fixes along the way.

It probably should be in its' own package but we can deal with that

[Mark H. <mh...@ca...>]

We really should make a 0.8 branch in cvs so we can maintain a gnome 2.2
version of java-gnome while developing the latest version - few ppl will
want to install developmental gnome releases just to use java-gnome.

As the builds seem to be working, we should release 0.8.2 to give a
wider test base and also let people know about our new schedule. Jeff -
you're the only one with access to the sourceforge file release, so
could you do this please? 

(please update cvs first - I've renamed the doc tarballs -
java-gnome-doc-core, etc -- it will make gnome ppl happier)
mkdir tmp
cp java-gnome tmp
./tmp/java-gnome/build/maketarballs.sh

That should work.
If you send me the md5sums, I'll write an announcement email saying
about gnome bindings release and send it to various announce lists. Has
anything else changed since 0.8.1?

What do you call ready? Development releases are supposed to be buggy
and incomplete, especially .0 ones. I think we are ok as we are, as long
as our next release (in 2 weeks) is a lot better.

Re: [Java-gnome-developer] Re: java autoconf macros

[Jeffrey M. <ku...@zo...>]

After reviewing the libgnomeui bindings I discovered that we only
needed to add one widget; PasswordDialog.  I just wrote the jni
layer.  Perhaps somebody can write the public interface for this
new class.  It is in cvs.

I also took a quick look at the libgnomecanvas bindings.  It
appears like we have near complete coverage of this library.
The only question is "does it work?".  Can somebody please take
a look at these classes (org.gnu.gnome.Canvas*).

I am about to look into the gtk bindings to make sure we
are ready for Dec 22nd.

I am building the jars and shared objects without problems.
I am just failing while building a few of the docs (can't
locate the docbook scripts and has a problem creating
javadocs).  I am about to review and update the libgnome
and libgnomeui components.  

There are 17 classes from the libgnome-canvas library in
the gnome package.  I will be checking these to see what
level of coverage we have.  I am not sure if these classes
work properly.  Has anybody tried using them?

No it's pkg-config that prints these cflags, it's to distinguish between
gconf-1 & 2 so I guess they're correct.

Yes I have them, (of course :)), I haven't touched this machine where
Java-Gnome always compiled fine, only I've updated autoconf.
...
updating cvs and vte packages solves the problem ;). Only GConf libs
haven't been built, it's the same include problem, it seems that
configure doesn't pass the correct values for me:
while it is checking GNOME_CFLAGS, I've noticed that the include flag
for gconf reads -I/usr/include/gconf/2 while should read
-I/usr/include/gconf-2

Yes, I am. I have translated the web into Spanish and I am the web
desinger. I also update the information about roadmap, news,
screenshots,... but I think this work should be done by other person
because I don't know about details of gnome bindings release, new
schedule, stable vs development releases.

Well. I create the html from xml files. Each xml file contains one
section of the website translated into various languages. Throught an
ant script and XSLT I transform these xml files into html files.
Nicolas, I am going to send you the xml source files. Send me the
translated files and I will update the website. Maybe this files should
be in the cvs repository. Now, In the cvs repository is the old version
of the web, could somebody delete the java-gnome-web and java-gnome-site
directories in the cvs repository??

You should have a lot more includes than that.

Does gtk lib compile ok?

For gtk, the makefile includes:
$(CFLAGS) $(GTK_LIBS) $(JAVA_INCLUDES) 

For gnome, the makefile includes:
-L@JG_GTK_LIB_PATH@ -lgtkjava${apiversion} \
		$(OBJECTS) \
		$(CFLAGS) $(GNOME_LIBS) $(JAVA_INCLUDES)

Only suggestion I have is to cvs up, ./genblah, autoconf ./configure
again.

Are you sure you have gnome devel libs installed, including the files
 /usr/lib/pkgconfig/libgnome-2.0.pc
 /usr/lib/pkgconfig/libgnomeui-2.0.pc
?

I'm sorry to say that, even if I have my hand on the usual pc where I've
always compiled java-gnome, the error still remains:=C3=B9

and a list of a lot of other undefined references follows.
Same thing for Glade, GConf and Gtkhtml (but the jar files are present)
No problems for libgtk and libvte.

As you can see the C source is compiled fine the problem arises during
linking phase.=20

libgnome and libgnomeui 2.2.0, libglade 2.0.1
Has anyone got this problem too? Any pointer will be *very* appreciated.

Re: [Java-gnome-developer] which format to use in documenting?

[Mark H. <mh...@ca...>]

Hi,
  The other documents are written in docbook, so that should be just
fine :)

Thanks a lot for all your hard work on this. Please send drafts whenever
you want reviews or suggestions.

I would suggest docbook since you can generate html, pdf,
ps and other formats easily.

[Java-gnome-developer] which format to use in documenting?

[Alex M. <ale...@gl...>]

Hi,

i'm working on the glade tutorial which it's going to be ready in a few
weeks. Which format should i use? I was thinking in docbook because im
familiar with it but i have no problem to use any other if someone could
send me a sample and instructions on compiling it.

Probably :)
I've never used vte though.

I'll just delete it from gnome and add it to vte - we only lose 2 cvs
log entries for one file, so it's not really worth bothering sourceforge
to get the revision history copied properly.
Looks like vte has quite a bit missing from it...
