Forked from Re: Attention Irv - EuGTK 4.11.11 Release Date?

July 26:

So, I guess the best approach is for Eugtk to not fail if missing that dll. Is my win 7's inability to view svg files common, or do most windows Explorers handle these properly?

Edit: problem solved with next version of EuGTK - which will bypass the svg library altogether and use the lower level GdkPixbuf functions to create images from svg files.

Solution for now is to comment the line as noted earlier, and if you must use an svg file, create a GdkPixbuf and create an image from that pixbuf.

I have been watching the EuGTK Home Page like a hawk for a month, hoping to catch the next version. Any idea when it will be released?

Thanks again for EuGTK!

Ken

Sept. 1.

Also, a note: the latest version of Mint comes with a much improved broadway server. Almost all of the over 200 demos run well inside a Firefox browser over the network.

No Eu or GTK or EuGTK needed on the client.

New version posted. I've tried using this on Windows with the new GTK dlls, but GTK and aero don't get along. Trying to use Windows after using Linux for so long is making me physically ill. Even when using Windows native software, it runs at half the speed of similar Linux programs (running on the same dual boot pc),

It's like comparing apples to road apples.

I'm going to remove any Windows platform code from the next EuGTK version.

"Trying to use Windows after using Linux for so long is making me physically ill." Somebody could equally say "Trying to use linux after using Windows for so long is making me physically ill."

"Even when using Windows native software, it runs at half the speed of similar Linux programs " While it may be true, it is irrelevant to people who want to use Windows.

"I'm going to remove any Windows platform code from the next EuGTK version. " I don't think that would be a very rational decision.

Maybe I don't well understand the behaviour of the Broadway server, but as I understand it there would be no need of Windows code anymore in the application with the Windows bundle GTK3 + Broadway.

"Brodway enables you to use your GTK apps right in the web desktop.

Broadway doesn't virtualize apps, it's a GTK backend (thus, it's faster). Instead of rendering apps on the screen (with the X server/Wayland/other), it's streaming it via WebSockets (compressed, and only updated regions are refreshed)." (https://github.com/symbiose/symbiose/wiki/Broadway)

"GTK+3 "Broadway" for Windows - official release and how to use it. Bundle for Windows" (https://gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php?title=Broadway_Gtk3_backend)

Most recent bundle is available at http://www.tarnyko.net/dl/gtk.htm

I should have tried first.

Forget the last bundle and use the 3.4.2 version provided in the tutorial. Tested working on Windows 10 64-bits.

Thanks to:
Andreas... EuPortable
Irv....... EuGTK
jmduro.... info on Broadway

So I installed winXP in a virtual box. Installed all of the above and everything works.

A suggestion for Irv, since things are still working it is premature to rip out the Win code that makes this all happen.

Being able to run GTK on Win remains an interesting option.

I had to copy the gtk runtime files to c:/gtk (a trivial change from the default installation.)
