Germán Arias 2008-07-24T23:24:37 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.gnustep.general/31257 Hi, I remember a while Andreas reported an issue when remote displaying a GNUstep app on a platform of with different endians (or whatever the grammatically correct variant of that phrase is). My MBP is currently broken, so I'm back on my PowerBook and experiencing the same issue. Using X forwarding from my (PowerPC, big-endian) PowerBook to my ThinkPad (x86, little-endian) I get strange colours. It seems something in the Cairo back end (I don't have any of the others installed anymore, so I can't test if this is a local issue) is not setting the byte order correctly. On the plus side, apart from the blue tint, remote GNUstep performance seems to have improved dramatically. Last time I tried it, it was almost unusable on a local network with GigE. Now I'm using it between two machines on an 802.11g network and it's quite usable (enough lag that you can tell that it's not local, but not enough to actually be irritating). Many, many thanks to whoever fixed the latency issues David Chisnall 2008-07-24T09:53:00 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.gnustep.general/31250 _______________________________________________ Discuss-gnustep mailing list Discuss-gnustep< at >gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss-gnustep Charles philip Chan 2008-07-23T23:53:36 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.gnustep.general/31249 Hi all, I've come across something where I'm not sure if it's a bug or a feature. The following code fragment draws an existing tableview into a bitmap, for later export as TIFF and conversion to PostScript. NSRect box = [table bounds], hbox = [[table headerView] bounds]; NSRect winrect = box; winrect.size.height += hbox.size.height; NSWindow *win = [[NSWindow alloc] initWithContentRect:winrect styleMask:0 backing:NSBackingStoreRetained defer:NO]; [[win contentView] lockFocus]; [table drawRect:box]; [NSGraphicsContext saveGraphicsState]; PStranslate(0, box.size.height); [[table headerView] drawRect:hbox]; [NSGraphicsContext restoreGraphicsState]; NSBitmapImageRep *boxRep = [NSBitmapImageRep alloc]; [boxRep initWithFocusedViewRect:[[win contentView] bounds]]; AUTORELEASE(boxRep); [[win contentView] unlockFocus]; I guess I could replace the last "[[win contentView] bounds]" with "winrect" but that's not relevant here. The Marko Riedel 2008-07-23T22:48:41 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.gnustep.general/31246 gnustep-make still supports .psw files, but I wonder if anyone is using them. I'd like to remove stuff that nobody is using. Do you know of anyone using pswrap and .psw files ? I don't even know how to test changes to the pswrap rules since I can't find a usable pswrap for GNU/Linux. :-/ I'll happily keep the code if there is even a single active user, or some reasonable probability that there is an active user somewhere ... otherwise we'll remove it and simplify gnustep-make. :-) Thanks Nicola Pero 2008-07-23T08:26:53 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.gnustep.general/31244 Hi folks, I have never used GNUstep's native print mechanism. I do know how to create PostScript files and pipe them to a print command. I would like your advice concerning the state of GNUstep printing. When trying to print a window (menu item: target: NSFirst, action: print:) I get a very professional looking print panel. However, no matter what I choose (Save, Preview, Print), I always get the following exception: NSRangeException, reason: Index -2 is out of range 7 (in 'objectAtIndex:') (Crash on click on "Debug") My first question is, is the print panel supposed to be working yet, or is it a work in progress. I am also willing to work with views directly if the print panel is not ready yet. My second question is, is NSView's dataWithEPSInsideRect: working and useable? Thank you for your help with these two questions.

I'm running FreeBSD 6.3 on an older Gateway PIII box. Everything has been working fine for about a year. I recently decided I wanted to play around more with GNUstep, so I loaded the various ports and seemingly got things to work. All expect Gorm. When I try to load Gorm I get the following errors.

I have some windows created with Gorm and I wanted to save their frames and locations to the defaults system, like so: [window setFrameUsingName: < at >"MyWindow"]; [window setFrameAutosaveName: < at >"MyWindow"]; This didn't work. It would always save the frame that corresponded to the origin and the size from the .gorm file. Finally I decided to print the frame of the window to stderr with NSLog and discovered that even though I resized the window in the application interactively, the value of [window frame] never changed! It always stayed at the values from the .gorm. E.g. when I resize the window to cover the entire screen, the value of [window frame] would still be the frame from the .gorm. My question is, has anyone seen this, is there some mistake I'm making or is this a bug?

Dan was on the team that created Smalltalk in Zerox PARC. I was also thinking that it would be great for gnustep to get some exposure on this show. Does anybody from gnustep want to approach this podcast and be interviewed? I think it is quite likely that gnustep could get on a show soon. I have listened to this podcast for a number of weeks and have noticed that they don't always have 'good' guests. For example, the latest show is a bit of a 'skip' episode (well for me anyway), it's just an interview with a CEO using running a commercial open-source project. I find the shows which are most interesting are the ones where they interview people on the front line of open-source and tech/programming etc... I think gnustep would be a great show! Cheers, Dan. Daniel J Farrell 2008-07-14T22:28:49 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.gnustep.general/31186 Hi folks, I have come across a problem in the classloader of Gorm.app. I ask your understanding when I say it is not terribly sophisticated. I had noticed that declarations of several instance variables of the same type like so NSMutableArray *a1, *a2, would confuse it, resulting in corrupted outlet lists, so now I always write NSMutableArray *a1; NSMutableArray *a2; Now I have another, more serious problem: it appears that the parser will consider everything an outlet that contains the string "id", e.g. NSMutableDictionary *namesToPids; will cause "namesToPids" to appear in the outlet list. This is an annoying problem and I don't think not to use the string "id" in variable names is an acceptable solution (though using "namesToPIDs" will fix it). Anyhow I hope you can replicate this, if not, please accept my apologies. BTW does GNUstep have a regexp libary yet that offers, say Perl-compatible regular expressions with different enodings (utf8 ...)? Best regards, Marko +------------------------- Marko Riedel 2008-07-14T15:33:12 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.gnustep.general/31184 Hello: I have updated MplayerGS with the following features: 1. Change "Open VIDEO_TS" to use dvdnav 2. Added "Open DVD" (dvdnav) menu item 3. Added "Open "VCD" menu item In order to use dvdnav, you must have a recent svn version of mplayer linked against the svn version of dvdnav from the mplayer server. Please refer to "DOCS/tech/dvdnav-howto.txt" in the mplayer source tree for details. I have uploaded the sources code to gnustep.org. You can find it here: ftp://ftp.gnustep.org/pub/incoming/MplayerGS-2008-07-14.tar.gz Thanks.

This is with Gorm. I had a window containing a scrollview, with a tableview as its documentview. I needed another one like it, so I selected the window, copied it, clicked paste, and voila! I had another copy. Only when I tested the interface, I discovered that this procedure inadvertently disconnected the tableview in the source window from the scrollview that contained it. The tableview no longer scrolled. The only way to fix this was to re-create the window in question. Second issue. I've noticed that tables inside scrollviews tend to get corrupted by repeated resizing. What I mean by that is, after resizing the scrollview several times the scrollbars no longer accurately reflect the part of the tableview being displayed. This applies to interfaces created with Gorm.
