Re: jpeg to bmp with pixbuf
Adding gtk-app-devel-list back. Please don't respond privately. > .bmp > > Uncompressed image. Without any image compression algorithm. Hmm. .bmp is a file format, and as it has several parameters that can vary independently, effectively a collection of subformats. (Not all of the possible parameter settings occur in practise in real-life .bmp files out there, except intentionally produced samples, and not even Microsoft's own software like IE necessarily correctly displays .bmp files with some rare parameter combinations.) If what you want is to read in a jpeg file and write out a bmp file, why didn't you simply say so? Anyway, yes, you can do that with gdk-pixbuf. Load the image using the jpeg loader, save it using the bmp loader. The gdk-pixbuf API is quite simple, it shouldn't be hard to figure out yourself. If what you actually want is an in-memory uncompressed image, then yes, that is what loading an image from a file (or from a file's data in memory) into a GdkPixbuf does. The pixel data in a GdkPixbuf is one byte per channel per pixel. It won't be organised in memory in a way that exactly would correspond to the data of the most common .bmp file formats, though. --tml ___ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list

Besides modern GUIs have support to understand what we have in a > MACRO. Visual c++ have that kind of support. The argument isn't against macros in general. It's against having macros choose an underlying implementation of a function. As far as I'm aware, this is only done in glib on win32 where filenames are concerned. And this was done because we couldn't change the *fundamentally broken* API due to ABI guarantees (the functions were defined as taking a string in your multi-byte locale. if you upgraded glib to a version that always expected utf8, a lot of existing apps would break due to no fault of their own, which would be bad). That's a completely different use case than yours. And a regrettable one, because everyone agrees that we'd rather not have those macros there if we could have somehow avoided them. You're not supposed to explicitly call the _utf8() version, nor are you supposed to have access to the other deprecated, broken version. Contrast this with all of Microsoft's A/W functions, and you'll see that the situations are completely different. So what you're suggesting is introducing brokenness by design, rather than reluctantly coping with some brokenness of an existing design. Besides, your case is based on some presumed "efficiency" of using UTF-16, but you have demonstrated no such evidence in your favor, which is unlikely to convince glib's maintainers. The cost of converting a filename from UTF-8 to UTF-16 isn't very high, I'll tell you. ___ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list
GGtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_label_set_text: assertion `GTK_IS_LABEL (label)` failed
Hello everyone, I am currently developing my first GTK+ GUI using glade to initiate bus master DMA. The GUI is set to take DMA transfer specifics (payload, number of packets, etc). Based on these inputs, I need to set a label or text box showing the total amount of bytes to be transferred from an add in card to the chipset. The GUI loads fine. When the user changes payload, the handler is called and inside the handler is a call to change the bytes to be transfered label/text widget. When this call is made, a failure is reported to the console saying it failed to set the text. I have tried both a textview widget and also a label widget without success. The main file is a C++ file that will call other C++ functions to run the DMA transfer. I use extern "C" {} around each handler and function prototypes and I haven't seen an issue doing this yet. Below is the code used: // HANDLER: void on_wr_tlp_size_changed(GtkComboBox *wr_size, xbmd_app *app) { wr_tlp_size = gtk_combo_box_get_active_text(wr_size); gtk_label_set_text(GTK_LABEL(app->write_bytes_to_transfer), "TEST"); //this is the line that is failing. } Below is more of the code: // declaring the widget structure so each widget can be accessed within handlers typedef struct { GtkWidget *write_bytes_to_transfer; } xbmd_app; int main (int argc, char *argv[]) { xbmd_app *app; /* allocate the memory needed by our TutorialTextEditor struct */ app = g_slice_new (xbmd_app); /* initialize GTK+ libraries */ gtk_init (&argc, &argv); if (init_app (app) == FALSE) return 1; /* error loading UI */ /* show the window */ gtk_widget_show (app->window); /* enter GTK+ main loop */ gtk_main (); /* free memory we allocated for TutorialTextEditor struct */ g_slice_free (xbmd_app, app); return 0; } partial code: gboolean init_app (xbmd_app *app) { app->write_bytes_to_transfer = GTK_WIDGET (gtk_builder_get_object (builder, "wr_bytes_to_trans")); Any assistance is appreciated.

The nice thing about UTF-8 is that strings in UTF-8 can be handled with normal C str* functions just fine. > gunichar2 * g_utf16_strncpy (gunichar2*dest,const gunichar2*src,gsize n); Such a function might well be useful in some circumstances dealing with interoperability or data formats, and I don't oppose adding it to GLib. (Together with g_utf16_strcpy(), g_utf16_strcat() etc.) But I don't think I have ever personally needed such a function in platform-independent GTK code;) (And in code that is inside a Windows ifdef, such functions aren't needed either. The C library on Windows already has wcsncpy(), wcscpy(), wcscat() etc.) > and the macro: > gtext* g_text_strncpy (gtext*dest,const gtext*src,gsize n); Never, ever. Didn't the previous replies get this across strongly enough? This idiocy is not something we want to copy from the stone age Windows programming style. (In current-day Windows-specific programming in C, I see no reason to uglify your code with those TEXT() macros, TCHAR types, etc. Just use wchar_t for characters, wchar_t literals (L'A'), and wchar_t string literals (L"Foo"), and call the wide-char versions of C library and Win32 API functions explicitly. Win9x is dead. No reason not to use Unicode explicitly all the time.) (And actually, why would one want to do Windows-specific programming in general in C (or C++) any more... C# and Java are so much nicer. And neither of them has any of this silly TEXT and TCHAR stuff.) --tml ___ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list

Well, he didn't say exactly what semantics he wanted his g_utf8_strncpy() and g_utf16_strncpy() to have. In the UTF-8 case, should the "size" mean characters or bytes? In the UTF-16 case, characters or 16-bit units? The existing g_utf8_strncpy() has it meaning characters.
