Hi!
What you're doing looks really neat. However, I think it is going to be a lot
of work...
What is your primary goal?
If it is to write your own Widget Set for DFB, more power to you, and good
luck, but I think it will be some work. And in the end you will have to write
all the apps as well!
If the aim is to have a non-X-based environment for applications, have you
considered building on some of the stuff that is out there?
Enlightenment (www.enlightenment.org), for example, is a pretty neat window
manager, which in many areas is also trying to go 'its own way'. It would
provide code for widget sets, window management, bitmaps and much more, all it
would need would be a DFB back-end. Much less work for you, and a bunch of
people already out there programming widgets...
Looking at http://www.enlightenment.org/Libraries/Overview/index.html,
it looks like enlightenment supports a DirectFB backend.
