digitalmars.D.announce - wxD 0.08 released

reply =?ISO-8859-1?Q?Anders_F_Bj=F6rklund?= <afb algonet.se> writes:
0.08 (afb)
Added StyledText sample for wxSTC testing
Cleaned up Makefiles, and "DFLAGS" usage
Not build Samples by default ("make test")
Added project files for Code::Blocks / GDC

http://wxd.sourceforge.net/


This release should work with "Unicode" on
Mac OS X and on Linux (not sure about Win)
Unfortunately this took a very long time
to do, and went down a few wrong turns -
and the current "solution" is not working
for DMD so it is currently back at ASCII...

The license was upgraded from wx 3.0 to 3.1,
but that is only a slight change in wording.

New neat features:
- the AUI docking library
- placeholders for STC/OGL
- ported a SDL panel sample
- link compatible with 2.7.0

And lots of bugfixes. Rest will come in 0.09,
which is hopefully the last Alpha version...

Hi Anders,
First of all. Thanks!

Regarding your homepage :
It would be nice to inform Windows users that 7Zip can be used to 
install the source.

Future plans / Using SWIG :
A BIG win for the D community. And IMO the only way to keep wxD up to 
date. BTW, will you pick up Andy Friesen's work ?

I will give it a try on Win and let you know about the results.

What does placeholder mean ?

Have you looked into using Gregor's bcd.gen for wrapper generation?

issue (i guess) bcd.gen can't be used for this task. :-(

The current wxD roadmap is:

- use the current C++ and D classes for wxWidgets 2.6 API, in "wxD 1.0"

- generate new SWIG C++ / D classes for wxWidgets 2.8 API, in "wxD 2.0"

We (in wxD) are working with the wx.NET team on this wrapper generation.
I haven't looked at using bcd.gen, to generate D wrappers for wxWidgets.

PS.
SWIG is currently used for these bindings:
- wxRuby2 (http://wxruby.rubyforge.org/)
- wxLua (http://wxlua.sourceforge.net/)
- wxPython (http://www.wxpython.org/)
- Java/jwx! (http://jwx.sf.net/)
