On using gtkmm, personally I think it is *way* better than the C interface
to GTK, but I don't know if it can be mixed with C GTK easily, and
changing
*everything at once* would be a big job.
I don't know either, but gtkmm is much better than GObject boilerplate.
Although I don't think we need custom objects that often.
Funnily enough, since subclassing widgets is trivial with gtkmm, they start
to be used more often in my experience :)
Yeah, there's lots of cases for Geany; geany::MainWindow,
geany::Toolbar, geany::PrefsDialog, geany::Scintilla, geany::StatusBar,
geany::SymbolsView, geany::EditorMenu, and even the existing GObject
subclasses, not to mention geany::Filetype or geany::Document and friends.
Anywhere you want to extend/customize the behaviour of another class or
widget or such.
Cheers,
Matthew Brush
