It was replaced by GTK+ printing several years ago and is almost never used any longer anyhow, so any problems in this code (and there are some) would never be found and fixed. Also update the message catalogs to avoid having the strings not used any more, as they were only used in Gnome printing code. Closes #15517. git-svn-id: https://svn.wxwidgets.org/svn/wx/wxWidgets/trunk@74912 c3d73ce0-8a6f-49c7-b76d-6d57e0e08775

Welcome to wxWidgets for GTK+
|
|
-----------------------------
|
|
|
|
You have downloaded the GTK+ port of the wxWidgets GUI library.
|
|
|
|
It is required to use at least GTK+ 2.6 and some features are
|
|
only available when using GTK+ 2.10 or higher. Note that even if
|
|
you compile wxWidgets against a later GTK+ version, your application
|
|
will still work with older GTK+ version down to version 2.6 as wxWidgets
|
|
tests for the presence of newer features at run-time and it
|
|
will fall back to a generic implementation if these features
|
|
are not present in the GTK+ version used.
|
|
|
|
wxWidgets 2.9.4 adds support for GTK+ 3, which can be enabled
|
|
with configure option --with-gtk=3. Note that this port is
|
|
still in development and may have significant bugs or missing
|
|
features, and should be considered experimental.
|
|
|
|
wxWidgets 2.8 still supports GTK+ 1.2, but no developement
|
|
is done on that port anymore and support for GTK+ 1.2 will
|
|
probably be dropped entirely. Indeed, one of the major steps
|
|
in the developement cycle leading up to wxWidgets 2.8 was
|
|
that the codebase for GTK+ 1.2 and GTK+ 2.0 were separated
|
|
so that improvements and clean-ups to the GTK+ 2.0 port
|
|
could be done without caring for GTK+ 1.2.
|
|
|
|
More info about the wxWidgets project (including all the
|
|
other ports and version of wxWidgets) can be found at the
|
|
main wxWidgets homepage at:
|
|
|
|
http://www.wxwidgets.org/
|
|
|
|
Information on how to install can be found in the file
|
|
INSTALL.txt, but if you cannot wait, this should work on
|
|
many systems:
|
|
|
|
mkdir build_gtk
|
|
cd build_gtk
|
|
../configure
|
|
make
|
|
su <type root password>
|
|
make install
|
|
ldconfig
|
|
|
|
In order to use wxGTK with GTK 1.2 you need to use --with-gtk=1
|
|
configure option. To build the library in Unicode mode (all
|
|
strings will be wide strings and so on) you need to configure
|
|
with GTK 2.0 and add --enable-unicode.
|
|
|
|
Please note that it is strongly advised to build the library in
|
|
a separate directory, as shown above, as it allows you to have
|
|
different builds of it (for example with and without debug) in
|
|
parallel. If you build in the source directory, don't forget to
|
|
do "make clean" before changing the configuration!
|
|
|
|
When you run into problems, please read the INSTALL.txt and
|
|
follow those instructions. If you still don't have any success,
|
|
please send a bug report to one of our mailing list, INCLUDING
|
|
A DESCRIPTION OF YOUR SYSTEM AND YOUR PROBLEM, SUCH AS YOUR
|
|
VERSION OF GTK, WXGTK, WHAT DISTRIBUTION YOU USE AND WHAT ERROR
|
|
WAS REPORTED. I know this has no effect, but I tried...
|
|
|
|
Please send problems concerning installation, feature requests,
|
|
bug reports or comments to the wxWidgets users list. These can
|
|
be found at http://www.wxwidgets.org and more specifically at
|
|
http://lists.wxwidgets.org.
