<title>Migrating from GnomeAbout to GtkAboutDialog</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
Since version 2.6, GTK+ provides the #GtkAboutDialog widget as a
|
|
replacement for the <structname>GnomeAbout</structname> dialog in
|
|
the libgnomeui library.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
#GtkAboutDialog supports all features found in <structname>GnomeAbout</structname>.
|
|
The <structname>GtkAboutDialog</structname> API is bigger, since it follows
|
|
the GTK+ policy to have getters and setters for all widget properties,
|
|
but it isn't much more complex than <structname>GnomeAbout</structname>.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
To convert an application that uses <structname>GnomeAbout</structname> to
|
|
<structname>GtkAboutDialog</structname>, as a first step, replace calls
|
|
like
|
|
<informalexample><programlisting>
|
|
const gchar *documentors[] = {
|
|
"Documenter 1",
|
|
"Documenter 2",
|
|
NULL
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
const gchar *documentors[] = {
|
|
"Author 1",
|
|
"Author 2",
|
|
NULL
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
GtkWidget *about = gnome_about_new ("GNOME Test Program", VERSION,
|
|
"(C) 1998-2001 The Free Software Foundation",
|
|
"Program to display GNOME functions.",
|
|
authors,
|
|
documenters,
|
|
_("translator-credits"),
|
|
"logo.png");
|
|
</programlisting></informalexample>
|
|
by something like
|
|
<informalexample><programlisting>
|
|
GdkPixbuf *logo = gdk_pixbuf_new_from_file ("logo.png", NULL);
|
|
GtkWidget *about = g_object_new (GTK_TYPE_ABOUT_DIALOG,
|
|
"name", "GNOME Test Program",
|
|
"version", VERSION,
|
|
"copyright", "(C) 1998-2001 The Free Software Foundation",
|
|
"comments", "Program to display GNOME functions.",
|
|
"authors", authors,
|
|
"documenters", documenters,
|
|
"translator-credits", _("translator-credits"),
|
|
"logo", logo,
|
|
NULL);
|
|
g_object_unref (pixbuf);
|
|
</programlisting></informalexample>
|
|
If the g_object_new() construction scares you, you can also use
|
|
gtk_about_dialog_new() to construct the dialog and then use the
|
|
setters for the individual properties.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
Once you are done with the initial conversion, you may want to look into
|
|
using some of the features of <structname>GtkAboutDialog</structname>
|
|
which are not present in <structname>GnomeAbout</structname>.
