This could be a very useful tool. What has stopped me using glade so far
is the lack of Windows support which is one of the target of the
application I'm working on. I think I'll give a try to gladepyc soon.
Hello Alexandre,
Gladepyc will happily generate code that runs on Unix, Vms as well as
Windows.
There is glitch however: non-ASCII characters are encoded with UTF-8 on
Windows' Gtk and ISO-Latin1 (or other 8-bit encoding) on Unix' Gtk (1.2
at least); So if you have some of those characters entered in Glade's
XML on one side, they are not rendered correctly on the other side. It
works perfect only if you use the generated code on the same platform
that Glade's XML was designed on.
Well, with gtk 2.0, hopefully this sort of issue will be a thing of the
past, as it uses utf8 on all platforms.
That said, Glade for Windows seemed reasonably stable, from what I
tested a few months ago. All this GTK/Glade stuff for Windows is
unofficial though -- yet.
There are ports of glade (see the gtkada website) and libglade available
for win32. I usually recommend libglade to most people, as some of the
stuff it does is non trivial (uline accel handling is the big one).
James.
