[E-devel] Evas_Quartz and Expedite Patches

2008-08-11 Thread Timothy P. Horton

Hi, all!

I sent Vincent and Carsten an Evas_Quartz patch on Saturday to review  
(and hopefully, at some point, commit); Nathan suggested that I should  
send it to the list as well, so that other people can poke around and  
see what's up.


Attached is a slightly updated Evas_Quartz patch, and a Expedite patch  
to add a frontend for Evas_Quartz. Patches cleanly against today's  
CVS, builds on a fresh (fully updated) install of Leopard. (I left  
instructions in the evas_quartz source directory's README)


I have more patches coming, but I promise I'll stop updating patches  
I've already sent until they get committed :-)


Thanks, everyone, for everything!! It's been entertaining, for certain.

Tim

Re: [E-devel] E CVS: proto/eina turran

2008-08-06 Thread Timothy P. Horton
I'm a Summer of Code student this year (so, not a /real/ E developer),  
and I was planning on keeping my head entirely out of this  
conversation, but each email makes that more and more difficult. So  
I've decided to express my _opinion_ on the matter of the E community  
(I'm have no preference in the license wars, and I will *not* choose a  
side).

I've come to realize that the E community might not be as healthy as  
it appears from the outside; it certainly isn't as /large/ as it  
appears, nor as large as it would need to be in order to sustain a  
codebase of this size and expand its user base (as I assume one of the  
goals of the project is).

However, it is my opinion that this is, in fact, *not* a license  
issue, nor a quality issue, or anything of that matter - the simple  
fact is, you *are* losing potential developers with arguments like  
this (and the rest from weeks past). They notice the amount of time  
the 'community' spends on things like this (among other issues), and  
move on to other projects. I know this, because I know a handful of  
said developers, and the fact that they decided not to work on E  
saddens me, but I cannot find fault in their argument; I'm sorry.

Anyway - here's to a speedy resolution of this, and millions more  
lines of working, usable, use*ful* code.

Tim

[E-devel] [SoC] Evas_Quartz status report

2008-07-14 Thread Timothy P. Horton
We've all been asked to write little notes to the Enlightenment  
development list detailing where we are with our Summer of Code  
projects, where we plan to go, etc.

I'm in the middle of developing a Quartz backend for Evas. The project  
is going reasonably well:

I've already implemented:
— image load/draw
— font load/text draw
— rectangle/line/polygon draw
— context manipulation
— a port of the old evas test program to Cocoa/Evas_Quartz
— a Evas_GL_Quartz engine (this was just to find my way around, but  
will get committed as well) and a port of the test program to this  
engine

I'm currently working on:
— image data access functions
— gradient drawing
— Expedite backend (I have some questions that I might pose to the  
list at some point about this)

I'm planning on finishing before the end of SoC:
— all of the above
— Ecore_Cocoa (I hope I'm not underestimating the difficulty of this...)

I'm going to decide later whether or not I'm going to finish these  
after SoC:
— Tiger fallbacks for everything that's Leopard only
— other smaller test applications, useful on OS X

I've got lots of other things I'd like to do when I get back to school  
(other random software projects, /besides/ school), so I'm not  
entirely positive I'll be working on Evas when I get back, but I  
certainly do expect to occasionally come back and work on random things!

I've been playing around with embedding Evas_Quartz views in normal  
Cocoa applications and it's really cool :-) heh...

[E-devel] Evas_Quartz Code, Ready for Reviews!

2008-07-07 Thread Timothy P. Horton
I've uploaded a very preliminary version of my Summer of Code project,  
the Evas_Quartz engine to Google Code, and opened it up for reviews.  
Anyone interested, please come review my code!

I'll warn anyone who's interested in reviewing that the code is rather  
preliminary, there's lots of stuff missing, etc.

Google Code project (for review): http://code.google.com/p/evas-quartz/

Thanks!

Tim Horton
