> How do I enumerate the fonts available on a system?
Here's a little function using Gtkmm that I use...
vector* LXUtils::GetAllFontNames()
{ // RETURN a pointer to a static string vector that contains the font names
static vector vsFonts;
if (vsFonts.empty())
{ // Only bother to do this the first time through
LXMainWindow* pWind = LXMainWindow::GetAppMainWindow(); // Get
Gtk::Window*
Glib::RefPtr rPC = pWind->get_pango_context();
Glib::ArrayHandle< Glib::RefPtr > fonts =
rPC->list_families();
Glib::Container_Helpers::ArrayHandleIterator
> > iFont = fonts.begin();
for (; iFont != fonts.end(); iFont++)
{
vsFonts.push_back((*iFont)->get_name());
}
}
return &vsFonts;
}

Re: enumerating available fonts
That function seems to list 'families' for a given 'font map'. But it seems that you have to have a font map to begin. I simply want to know all of the fonts on the system, like open office writer.
