hmm, I realy wonder why it was started this way in the first place. One argument could be saving resources by loading only the required stuff. But I really doubt that this argument can stand: a) its only valid on the assumption that these modules are only loaded when *really* required (eg. pixmap loading does not probe all possible formats/loaders, but knows exactly which the responsible module is, by some separate detection mechanism) b) pages from shared objects are loaded on-demand anyways, all that maybe should be done is grouping separate modules into separate pages. cu -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Enrico Weigelt, metux IT service -- http://www.metux.de/ phone: +49 36207 519931 email: weig...@metux.de mobile: +49 151 27565287 icq: 210169427 skype: nekrad666 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Embedded-Linux / Portierung / Opensource-QM / Verteilte Systeme ---------------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ gtk-devel-list mailing list gtk-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-devel-list
