Everyone, I have completed my first pass of gnome2.defs. Everything compiles.=20 Later today, I will start working with the java classes to see what works and what doesn't. While looking through the gnome2.defs, I saw that we have the gnome_util_user_home function defined. This seems redundant to me since Java already provides a way to determine the user's home directory through the use of java.lang.System.getProperty("user.home"). Thoughts anyone? Jeffrey, do we have an "official" understanding on what to do when gdk/gtk/gnome provides the same non-gui functionality which is provided by standard Java APIs? Often, we may need to provide the gdk/gtk/gnome method because gui code depend on it, but what about stuff like gnome_util_user_home? I realize, or course, that gnome is an environment and more than gui. I just need to know where we draw the line. Thanks, --=20 Philip A. Chapman |
