hidonmm again

16. August 2006

Renamed the hidonmm packages to the correct names as they were filed in the wrong folder of the repositry. I wonder if there is a way to delete the old ones.

Played around a bit with a “–disable-api-atk” option for gtkmm but did not succeed because some m4 macros obviously create code in a different scope meaning it is out of the #ifdefs.

Pesc|O made a nice patch to integrate ctags 5.6 in anjuta. It’s not yet finished but it looks promising. The guys from ctags event want to open up their development so I hope we can have a better integration and maybe a libctags soon.

Libanjutamm online

15. August 2006

You can get a copy of libanjutamm here: Libanjutamm CVS

A tarball of a sample C++ plugin which does not load because of GType issues is also availible
To use this, you need the CVS version of Anjuta and the gtkmm development packages installed. The best way, to test the plugin is to use the anjuta-shell test app in the src/ directory of anjuta CVS.

libanjutamm
Libanjutamm is slowly on the way. I have wrapped most important things excluding the interfaces and written a sample plugin which does not yet load because I have to fight more with the GType system. Anyway, I hope to finish this sample soon and write a script to automaticly wrap the interfaces. Happy C++ coding 😉

gtkmm on maemo
The gtkmm package for 386 should be up now and I am working on the armel package which should be finished soon. Next is the packaging of hildonmm which should hopefully not be too difficult.

Update: gtkmm packages for armel have been uploaded!

Debian, Anjuta, gtkmm

10. August 2006

Today, I built my first debian package. I still don’t fully understand how the whole mechanism works but at least I got good results by reusing the debian/ directory of an existing package as a starting point.

Naba made a great job and implemented a good auto-indent feature for anjuta, though the supported languages are only C, C++ and Java in the moment. Libanjuta is now a bit more wrapping friendly because I added “G_BEGIN_DECLS” and “G_END_DELCS” to all headers.

I am working on a libanjutamm. I follow the excellent instructions in the Gtkmm Documentation but I still have some problems. Anyway, I hope the nice guys at #c++ will be able to help me.

p>While I should be learning for electrical engineering and semi-conductors I spent quite some work on improving Anjuta.Most significant is the long-standing issue that people want to be able to open more project at the same time like in Eclipse.

So I arrived to the conclusion that this is not impossible and hacked it in about 3 hours. The solution has some rough edges yet but it works.

To comment Benjamin’s last post: I am now a proud member of the Gnome Foundation!

Auto-indent in Anjuta

27. July 2006

Sorry, that I have not blogged anything in the last weeks but I am quite busy to get enough time to pass my seven exams in the summer term.

There has been some work on Anjuta, anyway. We are working to integrate a better auto-indent feature, a better symbol-browser and of course lots of bug-fixes.

Esspecially thanks to frax who created some very nice patches for anjuta and gdl to improve the general UI feeling. Also Philip van Hoof made some nice suggestions what could be improved and wrote a highly motivating mail to the ML – thanks!

We still search for a perl crack who wants to do some work on gnome-build, the library for handling the autotools system. Any volunteers?
