It's not beta! I used it _years_ ago, when gtk+ on Windows was not even alpha software, and glib was solid as a rock with Tor Lillqvist's changes folded back into the main tree (it's not that I feel the need to give credit, I just love the dude's name). In fact, separating glib from gtk+ was partly motivated by the fact that glib was useful and more portable than gtk+. I think making the Windows port use glib would probably make things easier. > > Because of this I assume that scs2pdf won't work under Windows (scs2pdf > uses glib)? I wonder if glib has some sort of pipe or other inter-process communication feature? It seems likely, as Tor was running into pipes not working those million years ago-- he was porting the Gimp, and Gimp plugins use pipes for communication. I think I suggested using TCP sockets, as they pretty much work accross platforms. > > James Rich > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > _______________________________________________ > This is the Linux 5250 Development Project (LINUX5250) mailing list > To post a message email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > To subscribe, unsubscribe, or change list options, > visit: http://lists.midrange.com/cgi-bin/listinfo/linux5250 > or email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Before posting, please take a moment to review the archives > at http://archive.midrange.com/linux5250. -Jay 'Eraserhead' Felice _______________________________________________ This is the Linux 5250 Development Project (LINUX5250) mailing list To post a message email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To subscribe, unsubscribe, or change list options, visit: http://lists.midrange.com/cgi-bin/listinfo/linux5250 or email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Before posting, please take a moment to review the archives at http://archive.midrange.com/linux5250.
