[Java-gnome-developer] libgconf-java-2.5.2

[Joe M. C. <ma...@Fr...>]

I've moved on to trying to port libgconf-java to FreeBSD, and I'm
running into numerous problems.  I looked at your CVS, but it doesn't
look like the split exists there, so I'm wondering if you have another
repo somewhere other than Sourceforge.

In any event, here's what I'm seeing.  First of all, configure is
looking for gtk/src/jni/org_gnu_gtk_Gtk.c to find the source code.  This
file doesn't exist in the GConf bindings.  I had to change
ac_unique_file to src/jni/org_gnu_gconf_ConfClient.c to get configure to
run.  Second, configure doesn't both to check for _any_ GConf libs. 
This causes the build to die in the linking phase.  Third, there are a
lot of C99-isms in src/jni/org_gnu_gconf_ConfClient.c.  Attached is a
patch that fixes them as well as some other compiler warnings.  Fourth,
the various @*version@ macros are not expanded in the Makefile.in which
causes some strange build results.

Sorry if these are known issues.  I didn't see them reported on the
mailing list, under Bugs, and wasn't sure if the CVS repo was up-to-date
with regard to the split.  Thanks.

Joe
