2000-05-02 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi> Large changes to the Win32 backend, partially made necessary by the changes to the backend-independent internal structures. Attempts to implement similar backing store stuff as on X11. The current (CVS) version of the Win32 backend is *not* as stable as it was before the no-flicker branch was merged. A zipfile with that version is available from http://www.gimp.org/win32/. That should be use by "production" code until this CVS version is usable. (But note, the Win32 backend has never been claimed to be "production quality".) * README.win32: Add the above comment about versions. * gdk/gdkwindow.c: Don't use backing store for now on Win32. * gdk/gdk.def: Update. * gdk/gdkfont.h: Declare temporary Win32-only functions. Will presumably be replaced by some more better mechanism as 1.4 gets closer to release shape. * gdk/makefile.{cygwin,msc}: Update. * gdk/win32/*.c: Correct inclusions of the backend-specific and internal headers. Change code according to changes in these. Use gdk_drawable_*, not gdk_window_* where necessary. * gdk/win32/gdkdnd-win32.c: Use MISC selector for GDK_NOTE, not our old DND. * gdk/win32/gdkdrawable-win32.c (gdk_win32_draw_text): Don't try to interpret single characters as UTF-8. Thanks to Hans Breuer. Use correct function name in warning messages. * gdk/win32/gdkevents-win32.c: Use correct parameter lists for the GSourceFuncs gdk_event_prepare and gdk_event_check. (gdk_event_get_graphics_expose): Do implement, use PeekMessage. Thanks to Hans Breuer. (event_mask_string): Debugging function to print an GdkEventMask. (gdk_pointer_grab): Use it. * gdk/win32/gdkfont-win32.c: The Unicode subrange that the (old) book I used claimed was Hangul actually is CJK Unified Ideographs Extension A. Also, Hangul Syllables were missing. Improve logging. * gdk/win32/gdkgc-win32.c: Largish changes. * gdk/win32/gdkim-win32.c (gdk_set_locale): Use g_win32_getlocale() from GLib, and not setlocale() to get current locale name. * gdk/win32/gdkprivate-win32.h * gdk/win32/gdkwin32.h: Move stuff from gdkprivate-win32.h to gdkwin32.h, similarily as in the X11 backend. * gdk/win32/gdkwindow-win32.c (gdk_propagate_shapes): Bugfix, assignment was used instead of equals in if test. Thanks to Hans Breuer. * gdk/win32/makefile.{cygwin,msc} * gtk/makefile.{cygwin,msc}: Updates. Better kludge to get the path to the Win32 headers that works also with the mingw compiler. * gtk/gtkstyle.c: Include <string.h>.

The Win32 port of GTk+ is a work in progress, and not as stable or
|
|
correct as the Unix/X11 version. For more information about the Win32
|
|
port, see http://www.gimp.org/tml/gimp/win32/ or
|
|
http://www.iki.fi/tml/gimp/win32/ .
|
|
|
|
The current (CVS) version of the Win32 backend is *not* as stable as it
|
|
was before the no-flicker branch was merged. A zipfile with that
|
|
version is available from http://www.gimp.org/win32/. That should be
|
|
use by "production" code until this CVS version is usable. (But note,
|
|
the Win32 backend has never been claimed to be "production quality".)
|
|
|
|
To build GTk+ on Win32, you need either the Microsoft compiler and
|
|
tools, or gcc-2.95 or later. The mingw setup of gcc is preferred, but
|
|
you can run gcc also under cygwin-b20.1 or later. Compile in
|
|
gdk\win32, gdk and gtk with `nmake -f makefile.msc` or `make -f
|
|
makefile.cygwin`. The name makefile.cygwin is misleading, it should
|
|
really be called makefile.mingw.
|
|
|
|
See the README.win32 file in the GLib distribution for instructions
|
|
how to build with gcc.
|
|
|
|
To use GTk+ on Win32, you also need either of the above mentioned
|
|
compilers. Other compilers might work, but don't count on it. The
|
|
same instructions on how to set up a correct version of gcc should
|
|
also be followed if you want to build applications that use GTk+ with
|
|
gcc.

The tablet support uses the Wintab API. The Wintab development kit can
|
|
be downloaded from http://www.pointing.com. If you don't care for
|
|
that, undefine HAVE_WINTAB in config.h.win32 and remove references to
|
|
the wntab32x library from the makefile before building.
|
|
|
|
GTk+ wants to be built with the GNU "intl" library for
|
|
internationalisation (i18n). Get the version ported to Win32 (not a
|
|
very big deal) from tml's web site mentioned above. We build the
|
|
"intl" library as a DLL called gnu-intl.dll (the "gnu" prefix is used
|
|
to reduce name clash risks). If you don't want any i18n stuff,
|
|
undefine ENABLE_NLS, HAVE_GETTEXT and HAVE_LIBINTL in the
|
|
config.h.win32 file, and remove references to the gnu-intl library
|
|
from the makefiles.
|
|
|
|
Note that while the GNU gettext package is under the GPL, the "intl"
|
|
part of it which is distributed with GNU libc is under the LGPL (like
|
|
GTk+ or GLib). We want the LGPL one, even if they are the same, more
|
|
or less.
