French translation

2006-10-11 Thread Jeremie Gaucher
Hi,

I have noticed the french portal of you website might need a little proof
read.
The translation is barely understandable (both syntax and spelling need
checking).

I would be willing to help you out fixing this (at least the welcome part of
the webpage for the moment)

Let me know on how i can help out.

Keep up the good work. The software is great.

Win32 build problem

2006-10-11 Thread Stefan Schwandter
Hello all,


I tried to build gnucash on Windows today, with the automatic build
script. Everything went well until the GOffice-Stage:


###  GOffice

And that's it, the build stops. Any ideas?

Hi,

Thank you for volunteering.  You can find the PO file for
translation in subversion:

   http://svn.gnucash.org/repo/htdocs/trunk/po/fr.po

Just send us an updated version of that file and we can put
it up for you.

Thanks,

Re: SWIGification status, Part 2

2006-10-11 Thread Derek Atkins
As of last night this branch built cleanly (modulo the -Wno-unused
flag) AND it passed make check.   Nice job, guys!

Granted, it requires swig-1.3.28, which is newer than what's
in FC5 -- but a simple backport of 1.3.29 from FC6 and all
is happy.

Chris Shoemaker [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:

 Devs and Testers,
 The swig-redo branch has a swigified GnuCash.  I've
 smoke-tested it, but it needs some more exercise.  Several steps in
 the process were pretty manual and error-prone.  Fortunately, the type
 of bugs I'm most likely to have introduced are very easy to fix.
 The whole process went pretty smoothly except for one
 horrendous bug that killed many, many hours.  (Giving guile a NULL
 when it expects an SCM_UNDEFINED will eventually bite you, perhaps
 sometime in the distant future and in the bowels of the garbage
 collector.)
 I'm even more impressed with SWIG's flexibility than I
 previously was, and I've continued to receive good support from
 swig-user.
 I expect there are some gwrap-specific tests that still have
 to be disabled, and probably some dist-check related errors, but
 otherwise, it's ready to be stress-tested.
 I hope it will get some review/comments in the swig-redo
 branch, but I hope it can be merged to trunk for wider testing soon.
 If you notice any regressions from trunk please send them
 here.

Done in r15007.

@Stefan: May you retry and report further errors?

@Derek: I think this is due to the additional aclocal call, which
overwrites the macros in aclocal.m4. I have not seen gtk-doc.zip yet.

@Mike: Yes, I have seen those and implemented a subset by only copying
gtk-doc.m4. I hope it works nonetheless :)

Re: Patch to partially add recursion to budgets

 Alright, I got the patch updated.  I like the idea of using the unset
 value.  I was just unfarmiliar with the value structure holding code.

Ok, I've committed this to trunk as 15009, with some slight tweaks.

 I will note that there will be minor migration problems from old
 versions, since values that are currently 0 will display as 0, and
 values that are currently unset will display as blank.  This shouldn't
 really break anyone, but it might be a little confusing.

I don't think that's a huge deal.  It's not incorrect behavior, just
inconvenient.

 Not that simple, because error values are not the same as blank
 values.  I still handle errors as errors, but also will display unset
 as unset.

I'm not sure the api should actually store gnc_numerics with errors,
so I don't know if the difference is that important, but I basically
left this as you had it.

  User interface changes:
 
  1.) Budget values of 0/1 are now displayed when editing as $0.00 (as
  appropriate) instead of being left blank.
 
 okay, good.  Now, zero is a legit budget value.
 
  2.) If the user removes all text when editing a budget value entry, it
  will be initialized to GNC_ERROR_UNSET.
 
 With code above, any error code will do, and will actually _unset_ the 
 value.
 
 Agreed.  That code works better.
 
  3.) GNC_ERROR_UNSET is displayed when editing as a blank budget value.
 
 ?? It should be just blank, right?
 
 Isn't that what I said?

Sorry, I didn't parse it.

  4.) cleanup/debug: Other errors display as error when editing.
 
 That's a good idea.
 
 I preserved this behavior, while implementing using a NULL budget value.
 
  5.) In the existing budget report, entries with a value of
  GNC_ERROR_UNSET display as . instead of a currency value.  Other
  errors continue to display as a single $ (as appropriate.)
 
 I'd prefer that the report display and editor display were more
 similar, like just  and error, but I might change my mind if I
 actually saw it.
 
 The problem is that as the tables get larger, and larger portions are
 blank, it gets hard to track the columns, especially since we use
 boxless tables.

Hmm, it looks ok, so I'll leave it as ..

  What I haven't been able to figure out is how to have new budget
  entries default to GNC_ERROR_UNSET instead of 0.  I think changing the
  default to GNC_ERROR_UNSET would be the correct behavior, although
  again, this is open to discussion.
 
 Well, I think the default should be unset as per above, and I think
 it's just automatic.  Nothing's there until it's set.
 
 Yup, works great.  However, this is what introduces the weird upgrade 
 behavior.

Thanks for the patch!

I think you should use the codes.  But you can choose to use
accents if you prefer..  The file should be in ISO-8859-1 format.

 Second, how can i verify the file? I have read the section on the wiki on .po

What do you mean, verify the file?  You can checkout htdocs
and put it into a webspace, and then you can access that webspace
via a web browser.

 Lastly, are there other people involved in the french translation?

As far as I know, nobody else is working on this.

Re: Budget report improvements

2006-10-11 Thread Chris Shoemaker
Hi Steven,
Sorry for the late reply, I'm just getting back to stuff like
this now.  Thanks for the patch.  That's pretty impressive for not
having programmed in guil or lisp before - you must be a natural.  I
have some comments below.

On Sat, Sep 09, 2006 at 11:51:58AM +0800, Steven Wilton wrote:
 I like the budget feature in gnucash 2.0, but there were a few features 
 that I felt were missing in the report.  Unfortunately I've not programmed 
 in guile or lisp before, but I gave it a shot, and thought I'd send the 
 work I'd done to this list in case anyone else thinks the features are 
 useful.
 
 The patch does 3 things:
 1 - It adds the sub-accounts in the budget columns to give a total.  I did 
 this because the actual columns already contained the total of all 
 sub-accounts.

I don't think that's generally correct behavior.  What if not all
sub-accounts are budgeted for?  If a user wants to budget at the level
of the parent account, they can enter a budget value for the parent
account.  This may or may not be the sum of budgeted children (if
there even are any).


 2 - It adds an option to make the budget and actual amounts cumulative.

Interesting.  I'm ambivalent about this behavior.  On the one hand, I
understand why it is useful to see this information.  You're basically
viewing actual and budgeted account _balances_.  I'd like to see this
information be easily available.  

On the other hand, this means reporting budget values that are
_accumulation_ of the specified values, instead of identical to the
specified values.  Also, there are clearly uses when seeing the
accumulated values is definitely not what you want.  (But, yes, it's
optional.)  

I'm going to think about this some more, but in any case, if we want
this optional behavior, there are easier ways to get account balances
- and it could probably use some assistance from the C-side of
budgets.

 3 - It allows the user to select a single budget period to show data for.

That's clearly useful.  Maybe a range of periods?

 4 - It reduces the displayed accounts to income and expense only (not a 
 core feature, but it was the only way I could see to easily remove all the 
 asset and liability accounts from the report)

You just changed the default.  There's a full account selector in the
options.  But, I like that as default setting.

 5 - It makes the default display depth 3, once again not a core feature.
 
 There are a few bugs that I'm aware of:
 1 - For some reason the code that adds the sub-totals for the budget 
 columns sometimes ends up with a blank entry.  I have no idea why this is 
 ocurring, as there is no pattern that I can see.
 2 - The report takes a very long time to run.  I've probably done something 
 wrong int he code to make it run slowly.
 3 - The number of periods that are displayed in the options menu is 
 hard-coded to 12.  This value should really be obtined from the number of 
 periods in the budget.

That's _really_ tricky to do right.  It's the sort of thing I'd try to
figure out how to avoid altogether.  :)

 I hope the work I've done is useful.

Thanks for sharing the patch.  I'll see if I can commit some of these
improvements some time in the future.

-chris

 Steven
