./x11/wxGTK, GTK-based implementation of the wxWidgets GUI library

[ CVSweb ] [ Homepage ] [ RSS ] [ Required by ]


Branch: CURRENT, Version: 2.6.3nb2, Package name: wxGTK-2.6.3nb2, Maintainer: joerg

A GTK+-based implementation of the wxWidgets cross-platform GUI library.

wxWidgets is a set of libraries that allows C++ applications to compile and
run on several different types of computer, with minimal source code changes.
There is one library per supported GUI (such as Windows, GTK+, Motif, and Mac).
As well as providing a common API (Application Programming Interface) for GUI
functionality, it provides functionality for accessing some commonly-used
operating system facilities, from copying and deleting files to socket and
thread support. wxWidgets is a 'framework' in the sense that it provides a lot
of built-in functionality, which the application can use or replace as required,
thus saving a great deal of coding effort. Basic data structures such as
strings, arrays, linked lists and hash tables are also supported.

Such a toolkit is not unique - there are others to choose from - but wxWidgets
is free, well-established, well-documented, and very broad in its coverage of
GUI functionality. It has some extras that make it stand out from the crowd,
such as the many convenience dialogs, built-in HTML display and printing,
virtual filesystems, easy-to-use OLE automation controller class, Open GL
support, and many other features that make it easier to write modern and
user-friendly applications.

There is also a python interface available, wxPython (see the py-wxWidgets
package).

Log message:
Retire x11/wxGTK and x11/wxGTK-contrib.
   2008-02-04 18:46:13 by Tobias Nygren | Files touched by this commit (2)
Log message:
Move inclusion of graphics/glu/buildlink3.mk from Makefile to
Makefile.common. This should hopefully fix x11/wxGTK-contrib from failing:
checking for -lGLU... no
checking for -lMesaGL... no
configure: error: OpenGL libraries not available

XXX: buildlink3.mk doesn't include glu, is that really OK?

Log message:
Disable the precompiled headers on NetBSD sparc64 too, as this won't
compile there with them enabled.

Log message:
nawk is part of bootstrap now, no need to use gawk on Solaris anymore.
(it also breaks when using pbulk)

Log message:
Use C++ for linking the shared libraries and bump the API requirement.
This fixes the configure run of audacity and generally improves the
correctness.

- don't include x11.b3.mk as it is not needed
