I just thought I would post a message saying that the extensionclass based
rewrite of pygtk is going pretty well. In fact, you should even be able
to test it for very simple things.
If you want to do this, here are some instructions:
Checkout the extension-class branch of pygtk. This can be done with the
following command:
cvs -z3 get -f -r extensio-class -d pygtk-ec pygtk
(this will check out the extension-class branch of pygtk into the pygtk-ec
directory, and if any files don't have the extension-class tag, use HEAD).
You will still need my python patches for automake installed on your
system (I will switch it over to automake-1.4a soon).
Run the following:
./autogen.sh
make
You can test out the new version from the build directory (I don't
recommend installing it at present). As it uses libtool to build the
extensions, you will either have to create a few symlinks to get things
working, or use a set of import hooks that understand libtool libraries.
I have written some hooks like that, so that isn't a problem:
>>> import ltihooks
>>> ltihooks.install()
>>> import gtk
Not everything works (in fact there is a lot of unfinished stuff), but you
should be able to subclass the available widgets and the single wrapper
per GtkObject stuff is working. Also, there is no fiddling round with _o
to worry about.
James.
