Note: one goal is to have to edit fewer version numbers in source
files for each release.
We may be able to generate some files by the build procedure (CMake)
to avoid editing them in the future (1.5.0 or later).
- remove build option FLTK_USE_KDIALOG replaced by an Fl::option() option
- new run-time option OPTION_FNFC_USES_KDIALOG
- make options OPTION_FNFC_USES_KDIALOG and OPTION_FNFC_USES_ZENITY
false by default
- add mention of new program fltk-options in the doc of Fl::option()
- change logic of choice of the native file chooser under X11/Wayland:
the zenity and kdialog choosers are opt-in; otherwise the GTK file chooser
is used, unless opted out with OPTION_FNFC_USES_GTK
- document that zenity may be interesting for sandboxed apps
- document that both zenity and kdialog make member functions
Fl_Native_File_Chooser::filter_value() inoperable
fluid and fltk-options are now installed correctly as bundles and as
stand-alone executables side by side in the 'bin' folder relative
to CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX.
This works but the installation folders may be changed in the future.
Targets fltk::fluid is now exported correctly so
find_package(FLTK CONFIG ...)
works with both the build folder and an installed version.
This is a big commit and there are too many changes to list them all.
The main changes are:
- rename all CMake build options to 'FLTK_*'
- export library targets with namespace (prefix) 'fltk::'
- standardize shared library target names with suffix '-shared'
- set public build properties on libraries for consumers
- document library names and aliases in README.CMake.txt
- document changes in "Migrating Code from FLTK 1.3 to 1.4"
- partial backwards compatibility for old user projects
Included but not directly related changes:
- fix Windows (Visual Studio) DLL build
- add CMake function fl_debug_target() to show target properties
- don't build test programs if FLTK is a subproject
- internal: reformat CMake code: remove space before '('
Thanks to Matthias and Manolo for their help, testing, and feeback.
This library is no longer needed in FLTK itself. There is only one
demo program (test/forms.cxx) that uses it if it is built. The demo
program displays a message if fltk_forms is not available.
The default is 'enabled' for backwards compatibility but this may
be changed to 'disabled' in a future version.
- remove separate libfltk_cairo to avoid cyclic dependencies, but
- keep a dummy libfltk_cairo in 1.4.0 for backwards compatibility
- move cairo/Fl_Cairo.cxx to src/Fl_Cairo.cxx
- add preliminary Cairo support for Visual Studio (MSVC)
Static linking is not affected by this change, but users building
with hand-made Makefiles will have to remove libfltk_cairo starting
with FLTK 1.4.0. The dummy library can be linked for backwards
compatibility but it will be removed later (in 1.4.x or 1.5.0).
The shared FLTK library libfltk.{so|dylib|dll|..} depends on libcairo
if and only if FLTK is built with one of the Cairo options. This has
always been the case for OPTION_CAIROEXT but is now also true if only
OPTION_CAIRO is selected, i.e. FLTK programs linked with a Cairo
enabled shared FLTK library will also be linked with libcairo. The same
is true for configure options --enable-cairo and --enable-cairoext,
respectively.
Preliminary Cairo support for MSVC now detects a Cairo installation
using the CMake variable FLTK_CAIRO_DIR which must be set by the user.
Note that this feature is temporary and may be changed in the future
for a better and more comfortable version.
Move git exclusions from the main .gitignore file to the respective
directories to simplify the main file.
Note to devs: some file types are ignored "everywhere" (e.g. *.exe),
there's no need to add these files to the subdirs.
