wxWindows 2 for GTK is a port of wxWindows to the <a href="http://www.gimp.org/gtk" target=_top>GTK+ toolkit</a>,
|
|
|
|
|
which is freely available for most flavours of Unix with X. wxWindows 2 for GTK is
|
|
|
|
|
often abbreviated to wxGTK. wxGTK has a separate home page <a href="http://www.freiburg.linux.de/~wxxt" target=_top>here</a>.

<h3><a name="gnome">Does wxGTK have GNOME support?</a></h3>
|
1999-01-19 11:00:22 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Currently wxGTK does not have any features that would involve dependence on any desktop
|
2001-11-20 14:55:10 +00:00
|
|
|
environment's libraries, so it can work on GNOME, KDE and with other window managers
|
1999-01-19 11:00:22 +00:00
|
|
|
without installation hassles. Some GNOME and KDE integration features are file based, and
|
|
|
|
|
so may be added without dependence on libraries. Other features may be supported in the
|
|
|
|
|
future, probably as a separate library.

<h3><a name="redhat">Warning about GTK libraries supplied with RedHat</a></h3>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It seems that some versions of RedHat include a badly patched version of GTK (not wxGTK)
|
|
|
|
|
which causes some trouble with wxWindows' socket code. Common symptoms are that when
|
|
|
|
|
a client tries to establish a connection to an existing server which refuses the request,
|
|
|
|
|
the client will get notified twice, first getting a LOST event and then a CONNECT event.
|
|
|
|
|
This problem can be solved by updating GTK with an official distribution of the library.
|
|
