Would XRC support be a good Google Summer of Code project? Anybody want to be a mentor? Any other ideas? (I could also send this to wxhaskell-users...) -- Eric Kow <http://www.nltg.brighton.ac.uk/home/Eric.Kow> PGP Key ID: 08AC04F9 |

Eric, are you already receive his patch? If so, we want to see it for thinking about that.

But if so, we must change subject link this - "TODOs and what is good for Google Summer of Code?" For example, I have WXSOEGraphics code that Daan Leijen planed to add wxHaskell. And Gtk2hs has that feature now. http://haskell.org/communities/05-2005/html/report.html#sect4.5.1 http://www.haskell.org/gtk2hs/docs/gtk2hs-docs-0.9.12/Graphics-SOE-Gtk.html But this project is almost done. We have to do just dirty hack to run program correctly. So I think this is not good for Google Summer of Code. > Anybody want to be a mentor? I'm interesting about that.

Also, I was thinking that we could start writing some SWIG wrappers to replace wxc, but I guess that wouldn't really be very interesting for a SOC student. > I think we have many tasks for wxHaskell. > We can pick up there.

Yeah, good idea. > > Anybody want to be a mentor? > > > I'm interesting about that. > But my English skill is very poor. I'm afraid about that. That's ok; you can supply the brains, and I can supply the English. I don't think I could give any time thinking about things, but I could help you smooth out the communication end of things. -- Eric Kow <http://www.nltg.brighton.ac.uk/home/Eric.Kow> PGP Key ID: 08AC04F9 |

I'd like to look at it (or have someone look at it) one day, but I have not done so to date. Jeremy |

Hi, I'm sorry about my reply is late.

I read "Advice for GSoC Mentors" and I decided to be a mentor, today. http://code.google.com/p/google-summer-of-code/wiki/AdviceforMentors Is it late now? We decided to postpone registering mentoring orgnization next year? Or did you think that we should be becoming mentor in Hakell.org's mentor? >> > Any other ideas? From Haskell.org's ideas page, darcs GUI, 3D GUI application, and Unit testing of GUI Code is interesting. http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/summer-of-code/ticket/17 http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/summer-of-code/ticket/77 http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/summer-of-code/ticket/60 I think we can choose application development project using wxHaskell like darcs GUI. Because we can get some feedback from Application development. 1. API usability: add usable interface for GUI application development. 2. New features: add dropped functionality that GUI application requires. 3. (Of coure,) we get example application: this proof that wxHaskell can use making applications. And unit testing project would be good tool for our development. >> I think we have many tasks for wxHaskell. >> We can pick up there.

This page requires to make idea's page. So, how about make ideas page and list up our ideas that we discussed before?

I think it's too late for that, but we should definitely try to do this in the context of Haskell.org > I think we can choose application development project using wxHaskell like darcs GUI. > Because we can get some feedback from Application development. darcs GUI is a very big job... maybe not so good for a soc project (well, who knows!) > 1.

Yeah, sorry, I never finished writing that mail to wxhaskell-users I was planning. We could put it as a subpage on the WxHaskell page on Haskell wiki. One thing which might be good is if we could get the Cairo stuff as a separate package shared by gtk2hs and wxhaskell (and if wxhaskell had Cairo support too). Not sure what this would entail. Maybe we should ask our friends at gtk2hs for advice. -- Eric Kow <http://www.nltg.brighton.ac.uk/home/Eric.Kow> PGP Key ID: 08AC04F9 |

Not sure what this would entail. Maybe we should > ask our friends at gtk2hs for advice. wxWidgets 2.8 has corresponding feature, so wxWidgets doesn't have cairo support. Only wxGTK uses that internally. http://www.wxwindows.org/manuals/stable/wx_wxgraphicscontext.html#wxgraphicscontext http://www.wxwindows.org/manuals/stable/wx_wxgraphicsobject.html#wxgraphicsobject http://www.wxwindows.org/manuals/stable/wx_wxgraphicsrenderer.html#wxgraphicsrenderer So we must deside which is better way to support vector graphics, using wxGraphics** class or add Cairo's interface? We can find the reources that some person uses wxWidgets with Cairo, on web. So, I think this task is not difficult too. http://www.bradfordelliott.com/content/tutorials/wx/cairoexample.php http://codehavok.com/blog/?p=9 Best Regards, -- shelarcy <shelarcy hotmail.co.jp> http://page.freett.com/shelarcy/ |
