wxWidgets 2.5.3 CVS 10-18-2004
|
|
------------------------------
|
|
|
|
This is a Palm OS 6 port of the wxWidgets toolkit. Included in the source
|
|
package is the complete source necessary to build the Palm OS port using the
|
|
Palm OS Developer Studio. Also included is the diff showing the changes that
|
|
need to be incorporated into the wxWidgets 2.5.3 CVS source tree before the
|
|
Palm OS port can be integrated.
|
|
|
|
I am releasing this port to the wxWidgets team under the terms of the wxWindows
|
|
license. A copy of the wxWindows license is included in the source package.
|
|
|
|
No third party libraries or code were used in making this port. The port consists
|
|
entirely of code I personally wrote combined with code that was included in the
|
|
wxWidgets 2.5.3 CSV source tree. Whenever possible, I have used the Palm OS 6 API,
|
|
in places where the API was not practical to use, I wrote my own functions.
|
|
|
|
I am submitting this source package as an entry in the wxWidgets Palm OS 6 port
|
|
challenge. Details on this challenge are available at http://www.wxwindows.org/palmos.htm
|
|
|
|
Please note that this port is in a very early state. Currently the port
|
|
provides limited functionality for the wxFrame, wxMenu, wxStatusBar,
|
|
wxTopLevelWindow, and wxWindow classes. The other classes in the wxWidgets
|
|
toolkit still need to be ported. In it's current state, the Palm OS 6 port
|
|
is capable of running the minimal wxWidgets sample
|
|
|
|
The easiest way to see the port in action is to build the source package with
|
|
the Palm OS Developer Studio available at http://www.palmos.com/dev/dl/dl_tools/dl_pods/
|
|
Here are the steps that you need to follow to build the package:
|
|
|
|
1) Unpack the ZIP file into a directory located within the Palm OS Developer
|
|
Studio workspace directory. The path to the folder should look something
|
|
like this: "C:\Program Files\PalmSource\Palm OS Developer Suite\workspace\wxWidgets"
|
|
|
|
2) Open Palm OS Developer Studio and click on File->Import.
|
|
|
|
3) Select "Existing Project into Workspace" as the import source and click Next.
|
|
|
|
4) On the next screen click the Browse button next to Project contents and select
|
|
the folder you unpacked the source package into. Click on Finish to continue.
|
|
|
|
5) You should now see the project listed in the Project pane on the right side of the
|
|
window. Click on the name of the project. Now click on the Project menu and select
|
|
"Rebuild Project"
|
|
|
|
6) After the build is complete, click on the Run menu and select "" The Palm OS 6 simulator
|
|
should start. If this is the first time you have used the simulator, you will be prompted
|
|
to choose a ROM file. You can find the ROM files in a folder like "C:\Program
|
|
Files\PalmSource\Palm OS Developer Suite\sdk-6\tools\Simulator\6.0.1\ROM" It doesn't
|
|
really matter whether you choose a Release or a Debug ROM (the debug ROM generates extra
|
|
reports when an application crashes.)
|
|
|
|
7) You should see the Palm logo appear in the simulator window. You may get a dialog box
|
|
asking you to choose a language. Click OK to continue. You should see the simulator
|
|
initialize the built-in Palm applications. After a few moments, the wxWidgets minimal
|
|
sample should start. Have fun!
|
|
|
|
Since this source package was based on the wxWidgets 2.5.3 CVS source tree dated October 18,
|
|
2004 I don't anticipate any problems with merging the sources into the 2.5.3 source tree.
|
|
|
|
If you have any questions or comments about the port, please feel free to send an email to
|
|
the wxWidgets developer list or directly to me at wbo@freeshell.org
|
|
|
|
Enjoy!
