NOTES:
|
||
|
|
------
|
||
|
|
This is a cut down snapshot of fltk-1.1.x-r6041 merged in a somewhat
|
||
|
|
haphazard manner with the OksiD UTF-8 patch (for fltk-1.1.6)
|
||
|
|
Then some of the UTF functions from FLTK2 were back-ported into the
|
||
|
|
mix.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This code has also been modified to implement the XFT support on X
|
||
|
|
that was missing from the fltk-1.1.6 variant.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I have also introduced a number of extra test programs into the "demo"
|
||
|
|
directory - to test DnD operation, and to verify the behaviour Fl::add_fd()
|
||
|
|
on various platforms (this test also verifies some aspects of UDP multicast
|
||
|
|
operation that was causing issues on win32 with winsock-1.1.)
|
||
|
|
These two examples are accessed from the Demo program in the Events submenu.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
There is also an extended font-chooser/unicode font display test, derived
|
||
|
|
from the utf8 test that OksiD had added to fltk-1.1.6-utf8.
|
||
|
|
This is accessed in the Demo program under the Other Tests/Font Tests
|
||
|
|
submenu.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This code has been tested on linux (FC7), WinXP with mingw
|
||
|
|
and OSX 10.4.11.
|
||
|
|
The OSX port MUST HAVE the QUARTZ mode enabled in configure to
|
||
|
|
work (the older fltk QD code will not work.)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Linux
|
||
|
|
-----
|
||
|
|
This code has been built with the following configure options
|
||
|
|
on the linux platform:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
./configure --enable-threads --enable-xft
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
At present the code also works without XFT enabled (as the original OksiD
|
||
|
|
code did) but I can't count on that state of affairs being permanent!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
./configure --enable-threads
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
WIN32
|
||
|
|
-----
|
||
|
|
On WinXP, the code was built with mingw in an Msys shell with the
|
||
|
|
following configure options:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
./configure --enable-threads
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Was used an a box that already has image libs installed.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
./configure --enable-threads --enable-localjpeg --enable-localzlib --enable-localpng
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Was used an a box that does not have image libs installed.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Both cases function as expected.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I do not have access to the MS compler tools here, so the code is untested with
|
||
|
|
their compilers. I do not think I have introduced any incompatabilities but...
|
||
|
|
Feedback welcome.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
NOTE: The "standard" FLTK-1.1 build uses the (deprecated) winsock-1.1 libs.
|
||
|
|
This revised code uses the (allegedly) better winsock-2 libs instead.
|
||
|
|
This means you will probably have to change the link options in any existing
|
||
|
|
projects to incorporate this change - the libs are *NOT* reliably inter-changeable!
|
||
|
|
(fltk-utf8-config will return the correct libs for use.)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
OSX
|
||
|
|
---
|
||
|
|
The OSX build was configured with:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
./configure --enable-threads --enable-quartz
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Issues
|
||
|
|
------
|
||
|
|
At time of writing, the code seems to "work", but there are issues:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- The build is "noisy".
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- The gl font handling is not ideal under XFT (but it always was
|
||
|
|
anyway. We need a glXUseXftFont method really, but that doesn't seem
|
||
|
|
to exist...I could try and write one, but time...)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- The xim stuff is still needing work - I'm pretty sure I have broken this
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Input methods under win32? I don't know.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Input Methods under OSX? No idea.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- The code is now badly formatted in places from all my random
|
||
|
|
cut'n'paste...
