Re: gnustep-howto documentation update

2011-09-29 Thread Adam Fedor
I thought I was updating it, but it turns out there was a bug in make that 
didn't install the html chapters.  It should be fixed now though. Plus I 
updated all the documentation.

Hi,

Hi,
I notice there's been a pause in activity on gui for a few weeks- how would 
everyone feel about starting a code freeze now, testing for a few weeks, and 
then doing a release?

I would also be fine with waiting to integrate the menu work Fred started.


I'll wait a bit. I hope Fred can fix NSBezierPaths not to be a cluster 
so that it can be subclassed.

Re: base patch for review: NSLanguages system languages

2011-09-29 Thread Eric Wasylishen
Hey, I committed this. IIRC I checked the glib source code and it does 
something similar, so the most "generalized" version of "fr_CA" (which is "fr") 
is still preferred over the locales appearing later in the list (in my example, 
just "en").

No ... I made the new release and emailed the announcement to the info mailing

On a semi-related note, is base still in feature freeze mode?  I have some 
changes to the configure script that I made to allow me to cross-compile -base, 
but I wasn't sure if I was allowed to commit them yet...

Opal lives at svn://svn.gna.org/svn/gnustep/libs/opal/trunk and there
are some examples in the ./Tests directory. Ideally, I think, you would
want to avoid copying the pixel data from the cairo surface to an OpenGL
textzre but instead use a cairo surface that can be bound to an OpenGL
texture using EGL. This has the upside that it would also, with little
tweaks, work with OpenGL/ES (i.e. on mobile platforms) and it would give
optimal performance.

Cheers,

Niels

I think I may have some time over upcoming weekends. If someone gives me
some example code on using Opal, I could play with getting some basic UIKit
to work.

I don't think I'm familiar enough with GNUstep's AppKit to integrate this
system there. Plus, it might break things on older compilers and systems.
UIKit doesn't really *have* to be backward compatible, and using OpenGL for
compositing in initial implementation would practically guarantee that
ancient x86 systems won't be able to run apps at decent speeds.

So, can someone point me to some demo Opal program? If enough CoreGraphics
is implemented, I think I could figure out how to get the RGBA pixel array
out of it and start working on the really interesting parts.
