None from me, more the contrary :) > This would make quite some code obsolete and so could be removed. Yep, that'd be good. > Also, it would make it easier to migrate to using Glade 3 with > GtkBuilder instead of Glade 2 Well, not completely sure about this, even though I like GtkBuilder and Glade3 (it's soooo nicer than Glade2 :p): GtkBuilder was *introduced* in 2.12, which means the code is quite young with this release, maybe having important issues. I don't mean we shouldn't try to use it, but simply that it may be a problem because some important fixes might have happened in a newer release. > (and in the long term makes getting > compatible with GTK3 easier, but really, later :D). Honestly it shouldn't be that hard to support GTK3 at some point since AFAIK we don't rely on the things that have largely changed in GTK3 (size allocation, Cairo rendering, ...). > Though I'd like to do this step some time later.

Let's wait for Nick's answer... :D Cheers, Colomban _______________________________________________ Geany-devel mailing list Geany-devel@uvena.de https://lists.uvena.de/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geany-devel
