java-gnome-hackers — Hacking on the bindings themselves: design issues and co-ordination

[java-gnome-hackers] LifeCycleEvent changes

[Jeffrey M. <Jef...@Br...>]

Mark,

Shouldn't we loop through all of the listeners before returning the return
code?  In 
the implementation that you just committed you are returning as soon as a
listener
returns a code that is different from the default.  We should probably
continue through
the listeners and return once all have been notified of the event.  What do
you
think?

[java-gnome-hackers] beta build

[Jeffrey M. <Jef...@Br...>]

I will be creating the beta build at 8:00 PM EST today.  If you have
any updates please make sure you have them in cvs prior to this
time.

I hope to fix the int array event problem and a bug in ActionGroup
prior to the release.

RE: [java-gnome-hackers] problems compiling the code

[Jeffrey M. <Jef...@Br...>]

I would suggest working off of the java-gnome cvs instead
of the 2.5.5 release.  There are numerous fixes that have
been included and this is also where the fun is ;)  If you
get the latest code it should also find the libgcj jar file.

As far as your gtk/gnome environmen, you will need to stay
very close to the gnome and gtk head.  I would suggest
using a build tool like jhbuild or garnome to get current.

[java-gnome-hackers] problems compiling the code

[Jehanzeb P. <jk...@ho...>]

Hi Jeff,

Sorry for not replying back earlier. I wanted to be able to give you a 
proper update on my progress. My internet connection at home was too slow 
(or was generating too many CRC errors) for the Eclipse CVS feature to work 
properly. We had 3 day Public holidays here in Karachi. I just got back to 
my office today and was able to 'Check Out' the gconf folder from the CVS.

I am using Redhat9 with Gnome 2.2.0. I am using Eclipse 3 for development. 
Should I be working off the Gnome CVS code?

I have downloaded java-gnome 2.5.5 and have been trying to install it but I 
keep getting the following error from the configure script:
*** Unable to locate libgcj.jar needed by gcj

I understand that I need to have libgcj.jar in my CLASSPATH environment 
variable, but where is libgcj.jar ??? I can't seem to find it. I know that 
gcj works find since I have successfully compiled a java file that uses 
System.out.println and executed it. I am using RedHat9 with 
gcc-java-3.2.2-5.

I hope that someone is able to give me some directions so I can start 
pouring out some code. Thanks in advance.

- Pathan

LifeCycleEvent still includes some events which do not require a return
value, so we'd still need the original callback method. Perhaps we
should split this into two different event classes?

How ablut just calling it lifeCycleEvent with a different
return type.  Whichever approach you choose please make
sure there is ample javadocs in the interface.

The tutorial is comprised of numerous files on my system.  The install
target should find and install all of them.

I am not sure.  I guess we should identify the primary classes and at
least ensure that these load the library.

There are a lot of changes but not a lot of time.  I hope to spend
the majority of the time between now and Wednesday testing the code
to try to find bugs prior to the release.

The problem is that docbook gives the output files different names - we
want to rename it to faq.html. 
$(INSTALL) -m644 build-faq/t1.html $(DESTDIR)$(datadir)/doc/java-gnome-$(apiversion)/doc/core/faq.html
We could say:
$(INSTALL) -m644 build-faq/*.html $(DESTDIR)$(datadir)/doc/java-gnome-$(apiversion)/doc/core/faq.html
but this would fail if there is more than one html file in build-faq.

Which class should we load these in? do we need to modify all classes to
check that it's loaded?

Also, have you seen my modifications to common/TODO ? There are quite a
lot of other things to do (but only api changes are really urgent for
wednesday).

Is there any chance we can get the destroy and delete events done too?

What do you think to adding a 
boolean lifeCycleQuery( LifeCycleEvent event ) 
method to LifeCycleListener?
If this is ok, I can make the changes. 
(but I hope you can think of a better method name)

The problem is that gcj is located in
/usr/share/gcc-data/i686pc-linux-gnu/3.3/java on my system
(gentoo).  The directories we are using for the test do not
even exist on my system.

Here are the remaining items that should be fixed prior
to the beta:

1) gcj.jar checks that work for all developers
2) doc-core/Makefile.in.in that discovers all files in the
build-faq directory for the installation
3) doc-gnome/Makefile.in.in that discovers all files in the
build-tutorial directory for the installation
4) fix to event handling so it handles array of ints so the
rows_reordered event will propotage properly (I will work on
this).
5) fix a bug in the ActionGroup code (I will work on this).
6) load the native gtkhtml, gconf, and vte libs when they are
used.  Currently we do not execute a loadLibrary for these
libs so the examples fail.

I am handling items 4 and 5.  Please let me know if you can
work on one of the other items.

The changes fixed it for me - it was failing every time before (I had to

What's the exact error you're getting? (and where is libgcj.jar located

Re: [java-gnome-hackers] glade problems

Are you running all this from within ./bin jhbulid shell (or whatever
you use), so that LD_LIBRARY_PATH is set right?

If you changed it, did you remember to include the old value:
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/foo/bar/java-gnome/gtk/lib/

Re: [java-gnome-hackers] TreeModel rows-reordered

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

This is the problem that I was afraid of.  This is due the
what I explained in my original email.  Our bindings event
handling doesn't know how to handle an array of ints so it
thinks it is an int.  This is why you are getting the
message.  We now have until Wednesday so I should be able
to address this over the next day or so.

Thanks Mark,
I've rebuilt glade and glade-java, the only thing that changed is the
error:

org.gnu.glade.GladeXMLException: Could not load support for `gnome':
/usr/lib/libgnome.so: undefined symbol: poptHelpOptions

It's definately a bad installation problem, so don't waste time on it,
but it's strange cause the libgnome it should use is located in
/home/luca/installed/lib, and I've checked that glade-java compiled
against the right one...

Re: [java-gnome-hackers] TreeModel rows-reordered

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

ListStore and TreeStore weren't calling
super.intializeEventHandlers(). I've added this but there's another
problem:

** WARNING **:  Java-GNOME - cannot find callback method handleRowsReordered in the specified object with signature (III)V

this causes an exception:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.RuntimeException: 
        at org.gnu.glib.GObject.addEventHandler(Native Method)
        at org.gnu.glib.EventMap.initialize(EventMap.java:62)

        at dataTable.TableExample.main(TableExample.java:112)

TreeModel has void handleRowsReordered( int, int, int[] );

It seems we have another day or two for the release. I've not had chance
to look at the destroy and delete signals - could you possibly do this?

Easier support and distribution sounds good to me, and also the
performance speed up.
If gcj can compile the most of the apps around, that's fine and it seems
that we will only have benefits from this move. (When I've tried to
compile cromagnon with a 1 year old gcj, it failed because of
unimplemented classes, but AFAIK the situation now is way better).

All signals pass through the method jg_signal_cb in
org_gnu_glib_GObject.c.  You might try to add some
printf statements here.  I am about to leave for about
