Inti 1.0 Beta-1
Thu Oct 3 17:54:39 2002 Jeff Franks <jcf@tpg.com.au>
* Released the first beta version under the new name,
libinti-1.0 Beta-1.
* Finished changing the GCode name to Inti in all the source
code and documentation files.
Tue Oct 1 15:08:04 2002 Jeff Franks <jcf@tpg.com.au>
* stamp.h.in:Removed this file because its not used any more.
The autogen.sh file calls automake with the --add-missing
argument and will add stamp.h.in/ if required by an older
version of automake.
* Had to change the name of the project because there was
another program by the name of GCode. After discussions
with Havoc Pennington the new name for this project is
"Inti: Integrated Foundation Classes".
Fri Sep 27 03:25:43 2002 Jeff Franks <jcf@tpg.com.au>
* Released libgcode-1.0 Beta-4.
Wed Sep 25 03:25:33 2002 Jeff Franks <jcf@tpg.com.au>
* Copyright notices updated in all files implementing signals
and slots, and using signals to acknowledge any previous
copyright. This was an oversight.
* reference docs: Added doxygen comments the all the files
in the gcode directory but not the subdirectories.
Fri Sep 20 21:05:28 2002 Jeff Franks <jcf@tpg.com.au>
* gcode/gdk/types.cc: Replaced deprecated C++ header include.
Fri Sep 20 19:33:52 2002 Jeff Franks <jcf@tpg.com.au>
* docs/reference/Doxyfile, docs/reference/gcode_header.html,
docs/reference/gcode_footer.html, docs/reference/gcode.css:
Added the doxygen files needed to generate the documentation.
* docs/reference/images: Added the image files used in the
reference documentation.
* docs/reference, docs/reference/images: Added reference and
image file directories.
* docs/README: Added documentation README file.
Thu Sep 19 21:22:13 2002 Jeff Franks <jcf@tpg.com.au>
* gcode/gtk/selection.cc: Added several convenience methods
that returned the Gdk::Atom value of several Gtk::SelectionData
fields as a String. Added a get_targets() method that returns
all the target atoms as a vector of String. The declaration for
these methods were added before the Beta-3 release but somehow
the definitions weren't. Added the missing definitons for these
methods.
Thu Sep 19 21:20:28 2002 Jeff Franks <jcf@tpg.com.au>
* gcode/gdk/pixmap.cc: Fixed bug in four Pixmap constructors
that occurred when transparent_color was null.
Thu Sep 19 19:09:34 2002 Jeff Franks <jcf@tpg.com.au>
* gcode/main.h: Fixed the GCODE_MAIN macro definition
by removing the terminating semi-colon. Fixed the example
source code that used this macro and corresponding html
tutorial files.
* Began adding doxygen documentation comments to the header
files.
Thu Sep 19 15:39:09 2002 Jeff Franks <jcf@tpg.com.au>
* gcode/main.[cch]: Removed the current_event() method
due to a memory leak. No easy way to call gdk_event_free()
on the wrapper without rewriting Gdk::Event. Removed the
associated methods current_event_time() and
current_event_state() for consistency. If you need these
methods you will have to call the GTK functions directly.
Thu Sep 19 12:17:54 2002 Jeff Franks <jcf@tpg.com.au>
* gcode/main.[cch]: Removed set_locale argument from
init() and init_check() methods. Removal wont affect
any code as it had a default value. The init() and
init_check() methods set the local automatically so
setting the locale explicitly is unnecessary.
Thu Sep 19 00:14:11 2002 Jeff Franks <jcf@tpg.com.au>
* gcode-config.h.in:Added HAVE_FLOCKFILE define.
* configure.in:Added check for flockfile() function.
* demos/gcode-demo/demowindow.cc (read_line): Fixed compile
problem on solaris (sparc) 8, due to No flockfile() or
getc_unlocked() fucntion. (Reported by Salman Sheik)
Wed Sep 18 21:39:13 2002 Jeff Franks <jcf@tpg.com.au>
* gcode/Makefile: Removed convert.h from the h_sources list.
* gcode/gtk/treeview.cc, gcode/gtk/widget.cc,
gcode/gtk/window.cc: Removed obselete convert.h include
declaration.
* gcode/convert.h: Removed the obselete conversion slot
interface. Used in the early stages, as libgcode evolved
it wrapped most GTK+ C data types, functions and structures,
removing the need to use special conversion functions.
Tue Sep 17 22:16:54 2002 Jeff Franks <jcf@tpg.com.au>
* Released libgcode-1.0 Beta-3.
Tue Sep 17 20:35:38 2002 Jeff Franks <jcf@tpg.com.au>

completing the tutorial for libgcode-1.0.
Tue Sep 17 16:40:59 2002 Jeff Franks <jcf@tpg.com.au>

* examples/textview: Added text widget example.
Sat Sep 14 12:18:42 2002 Jeff Franks <jcf@tpg.com.au>
* gcode/gtk/treemodel.[cch]: Changed the "parent" iterator
argument in the iter_nth_child() method from a reference to a
pointer because null is a valid value to pass.

* examples/treeview: Added a treeview widget example.
Fri Sep 13 13:47:49 2002 Jeff Franks <jcf@tpg.com.au>
* gcode/gtk/liststore.[cch], gcode/gtk/treestore.[cch]: Added
missing const modifier to TreeIter argument in the set_value()
method. Added overloaded set_value() method for the const char*
data type. This was to make it easier to set values with string
literal.
Fri Sep 13 01:38:46 2002 Jeff Franks <jcf@tpg.com.au>
* gcode/gtk/treeviewcolumn.[cch]: Changed the order of the
arguments to add_attributes() to be consistent with other
attribute-related methods.
Wed Sep 11 14:21:40 2002 Jeff Franks <jcf@tpg.com.au>
* examples/fontselection: Added a font selection example.
Wed Sep 11 11:46:26 2002 Jeff Franks <jcf@tpg.com.au>

drag_source_set() methods which take a single Gtk::TargetEntry
as an argument. The other methods take a std::vector of entries.

* gcode/gtk/dnd.h: Added TargetFlags enumeraton.
* gcode/gtk/selection.h: Changed unsigned int argument

to the "examples/selection" subdirectory. This example
shows how to retrieve a selection and to take ownership and
supply a selection.
* gcode/gtk/widget.[cch]: Added a selection_owner_get()
method that returns true if the widget is the owner
of the specified selection. This saves having to call
gdk_selection_owner_get() directly.
Tue Aug 27 07:26:43 2002 Jeff Franks <jcf@tpg.com.au>
* gcode/gtk/widget.[cch]: Added selection_owner_unset()
method. Added GDK_CURRENT_TIME as the default argument

unref() as inaccessible. This was fixed by changing the
inheritance of G::TypeInterface from virtual protected to virtual
public.
* gcode/utf_string.cc: Fixed the compiler error generated by the
clear() method definition 'return string_.clear();'. Older versions

Updated code to use the new get_value_type() and set_value_type()
functions so the demo program would compile with gcc-3.1.1.

GNOME Documentation Style Guide V0.3
Pat, Eugene and Irene have undertaken a major revision of the GNOME
Documentation Style Guide. The xml files are now in CVS, and the
finished result for GDSG V0.3 is available at the following location:
http://developer.gnome.org/documents/style-guide/
Some of the major differences between V0.2 and V0.3:
- Converted old sgml document into xml.
- Converted old single file document with subsections into a proper book
structure with chapters for easier access for multiple writers.
- Added comments from community about V0.2.
- Added some new sections, notably:
Building blocks, writing for guis, accessibility, legal, units appendix
- Updated the wordlist with quite a few new terms. As we uncovered new
terms we defined them and put them into the wordlist. Eugene will follow
up with a mail indicating the latest new terms.
The contents of the GDSG are largely based on our experiences of
documenting around 30 or so applets and applications for Help manuals,
as well as the entire GNOME 2.0 desktop UI for the user guide. The GDSG
should be fairly comprehensive, therefore, but there is always a
possibility that we have left something out. Please let me know if you
know of something else that should be covered in the style guide, or any
other comments that you might have.
I have sent this announcement to a wider distribution than just the
documentation community, as the topics in the style guide are now quite
broad, and have many linkages with different parts of the GNOME project.

GNOME Accessibility Themes 0.1
Application
===========
GNOME Accessibility Themes 0.1 "Chiaroscuro"
Description
===========
A set of desktop themes and icons for users with low or limited vision.
Contains gtk themes, gtk stock icons and a fair smattering of launcher
icons for GNOME 2.0 applications in seven tasty flavours:
- LargePrint
- HighContrast
- HighContrastInverse
- HighContrastLargePrint
- HighContrastLargePrintInverse
- LowContrast
- LowContrastLargePrint
The high contrast icons were lovingly drawn by jimmac, tigert and suz. The
low contrast icons were indifferently churned out by a monkey turning a
handle connected to UnNamed's GIMP script.

GNOME Development Series Snapshot 2.1.0
GNOME Development Series Snapshot 2.1.0: "88MPH"
================================================
The GNOME Development Series Snapshot 2.1.0 "88MPH", is ready for your
bug-busting and testing pleasure! It is available for immediate download on
ftp ftp.gnome.org and mirrors.
Download:
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/desktop/2.1/2.1.0/sources/
tar.gz:79M total
tar.bz2: 61M total
WARNING! WARNING! WARNING!
--------------------------
This release is an UNSTABLE development series snapshot. It is intended for
testing and hacking purposes ONLY. Like the Linux kernel, GNOME uses odd
minor version numbers to indicate development status, so this 2.1.x series
will eventually become the official 2.2 release. Please check our schedule
for more info: http://developer.gnome.org/dotplan/schedule/
New Features
------------
- Detailed control over fonts, anti-aliasing and subpixel smoothing in the
Fonts control panel. Control anti-aliasing on-the-fly! As seen in Red
Hat 8.0.
- New tab in the Themes control panel provides metacity window border
theme selection.
- Windows control panel for window manager selection and options.
- gedit has a new plugins, including a spelling checker, Galeon-style tab
control, improved UTF8 support and a most recently used files list.
Check out the recent files list dropdown on the 'Open' toolbar button!
- Panel multiscreen support, zoom animation when launchers are clicked.
- New panel buttons for Screenshot, Search, Show Desktop (actually an
applet) and Run.
- gdialog is back! Improved, and built by default in gnome-utils again.
- Search Tool user interface completely revamped, supports Nautilus icons
and drag'n'drop.
- Nautilus now has an extensible thumbnailing system. See Alex Larsson's
post on nautilus-list about ~/.gnome2/thumbnailrc.
- freedesktop.org system icon theme support in Nautilus (see
gnome-icon-theme).
- New icon layout/canvas, general performance fixes, and a new rename
widget with i18n support.
- Improved Nautilus side pane based on standard widgets.
- Requires the 1.1.x development series of Pango, which supports Xft2 and
fontconfig.
- New 'gman' alias for yelp, which handily pops up the man page index.
This feature dedicated to Glynn Foster.
Preview Modules
---------------
The following
modules, proposed for addition to the 2.2 Desktop, have been included in
this release for preview and testing:
- gnome-themes: New package of default themes for GNOME, which currently
includes GTK+ and icon themes designed for accessibility.
- gnome-icon-theme: Default GNOME icon theme.
- metacity: Window manager for the adult in you. Proposed to replace
Sawfish as default window manager.
- vte: Terminal widget with improved font, internationalisation and
accessibility support. Designed to replace libzvt.
- file-roller: Full-featured archive creation, browsing, and unpacking
utility. See: http://fileroller.sourceforge.net/
- gcalctool: Scientific calculator. Proposed to replace gnome-calculator.
Build Requirements
------------------
- The tarballs included in the release. :-)
- Some very basic packages not distributed with this release, such as
image libraries, popt and freetype. These should all be included with or
available for your distribution.
- Xft2 and fontconfig for superior font rendering and configuration, from
http://fontconfig.org/
- Python 2 with expat xml modules for libglade (some modules still require
the libglade-convert script, however we do plan to ship glade2 files).
- Docbook DTD 4.1.2, Docbook XSL stylesheets and a valid system catalogue
file for scrollkeeper (which in turn is required by many desktop
components for documentation).
Happy testing!

GStreamer 0.2.0
GStreamer Pipeline Editor "Thanks for all the fish" 0.2.0 released
A first release of gst-editor, the GStreamer graphical pipeline
editor, is now available for public consumption! This tool allows
easy, graphical construction, inspection, and operation of media
processing pipelines. It can be used as a rapid prototyping tool as
well as a method to learn more about [1]GStreamer. More information
about gst-editor is available on the project's [2]home page.
Work on gst-editor was originally started in 2000 by Erik Walthinsen,
but was left unfinished and unmaintained for a year or two.
Development was picked up in mid-2002 by Andy Wingo, resulting in a
port to Gnome 2, adaptation to the current GStreamer API, and general
UI improvements and modularization. While much progress has been made
in the area of stabilization, crashes still occur from time to time.
Reproduceable bugs should be reported to [3]Gnome bugzilla.
To rehash, for the impatient: THIS CODE IS VERY ALPHA.
Screenshots
* Thomas Vander Stichele took [4]this shot while designing the
pipeline topology for a radio station mixing project:
"It shows two decoding threads that read files from disk,
connected to an adder, which does threaded output (in the
actual app, osssink is replaced again by tee, which sends
data to various output methods).
"After some experimentation, this seemed to be the ideal
pipeline setup, which I was able to verify by setting the
whole pipeline to play (using the buttons at the bottom), then
only pausing the adder (as shown in the screenshot - see the
adder being in pause and everything else in play). Pressing
pause here kept osssink playing for a little bit more until
the queue is empty. In the app, this gives me the time to
disconnect an input pipe, or connect a new one, with the adder
being paused, so as to have seamless playback."
* Andy made [5]this shot while playing around with [6]LADSPA
plugins. Note the automatically generated controls for element
properties, as well as the quick launch palette showing all
available elements.
Download
gst-editor requires GStreamer 0.4.1. It could probably work with
0.4.0, but that is untested.
You can find the source release of gst-player in [7]tar.gz format.
RPM packages will be available from our [9]apt for rpm repository, and
Debian packages should be coming soon to an experimental near you.
Maintainer needed
Andy is heading off to teach physics in rural Namibia for two years.
Needless to say, he won't be doing much development on the editor.
Patches should be submitted to the [10]gstreamer-devel mailing list.
