This fixes #60 by wrapping TreeStore and ListStore, so TreeViews can display content. The idea is that it should work like this:

let mut project_tree = gtk::TreeView::new().unwrap();
let column_types = vec![glib::ffi::g_type_string];
let tree_store = gtk::TreeStore::new(column_types).unwrap();
let model = tree_store.get_model().unwrap();
project_tree.set_model(&model);

Here's what I think still needs to be done:

• ~~Complete all the TreeStore/ListStore functions~~
• ~~Create an enum that maps to the various GType constants~~
• ~~TreeView's getter functions seem to have the "get_" omitted, which seems inconsistent with other widgets like IconView, so that should probably be fixed~~

Why are methods like these commented out in the source:

pub fn gtk_builder_add_from_file(builder: *mut C_GtkBuilder, file_name: *const c_char, error: *mut *mut C_GError) -> c_uint;

This particular method is a very useful one, as it's used to instantiate the view from a Glade file.

I implemented the keyval_name function, solving issue #203. I tested it and it works. But could someone have a look and see if the fix looks okay.

For instance I am unsure about line 32 in keys.rs. I had to comment that out since my program would crash otherwise. Similar gdk functions that return the same type (like gdk_screen_get_monitor_plug_name) however suggest that it should be there.

The other thing I'm uncertain about is whether the return type of this

pub fn gdk_keyval_name (keyval:c_uint) -> *mut c_char;

should be immutable as this says "The [returned] String should not be modified".

Fix #2 by mentioning the custom homebrew formula pointed out by @dubcanada. The only fix needed is that GtkSocket needs to be stubbed out because it doesn't look like the Quartz backend supports it. Compiling with this is much better than with X11.

While looking at how EventKey works i was comparing https://developer.gnome.org/gdk3/stable/gdk3-Event-Structures.html#GdkEventKey with https://github.com/jeremyletang/rgtk/blob/master/src/gdk/events.rs#L204

The official doc says that this is called "is_modifier" and it's a flag if the key is a modifier, whereas the rgtk is a u32.

• Updated README.md
• Shortened and spread out rgtk.rs and gtk/mod.rs documentation
• Add documentation stubs for gdk/mod.rs, glib/mod.rs and cairo/mod.rs

Several fixes to support windows build.

1. C function gtk_recent_info_get_applications accepts a pointer to 'gulong' as a second argument. Unsigned long is 64bit on linux but 32 bit on windows.
2. Now examples don't link - undefined references to gtk_glue cast_Gtk* symbols. It seems that functions in #ifdef GTK_ conditionals are not included, because GTK_VERSION define is not passed to the gcc.
3. More undefined references to gtk_glue. #ifdef GTK_* conditionals are wrong. 3_6 symbols exist in 3_10 and 3_12, 3_10 in 3_12. Uncommented GApp* stuff in gtk_glue.
4. Linking errors on g_app* symbols. Passing gio to link flags fixes this.

Tested on windows using msys2_64, linux64. Gtk version 3.13. Rgtk built for GTK_3_12.

Needs some discussion regarding impl Clone. I know Jeremy dislikes this approach but I think it can make sense.

Conceptually a gtk widget (Button, Window etc...) in rust can be thought of as a reference to the concrete widget on the screen. In that sense a clone makes sense and just gives you another reference to the concrete widget.

On the other hand this may be confusing to users, where they expect an whole new Button or Window in case of a clone, in this case we should implement something like widget.reference() to do the same. This has the disadvantage of being non obvious in the sense the Clone is pretty populair trait.

Let me know what you think,

When foreign functions are nearly sure to return proper values dont wrap in an Option monad for invalid data but just fail!.

I think it is OK to fail! instead of Option when there is really an error state. The resulting api is also a lot cleaner.

Hi,

i just wanted to compile my program on i386 (Atom based netbook) but the steps show the following errors. I guess this is due to the netbook being 32bit? Or could this be something different?

To learn more, run the command again with --verbose.

It seems like cairo (or at least connecting the draw function to a drawing area) is broken since the last big update. The example cairotest crashes instantly unless

Connect::connect(&drawing_area, Draw::new(draw_fn));

is commented out.

As discussed I'm adding this issue, but I'd love to contribute and fix it myself.

Anyways, I'm gonna wait for it build with the alpha version https://github.com/jeremyletang/rgtk/pull/177

GTK Reference

This should be submitted to crates.io. As far as I know it is currently the only way to make GUI applications in Rust, and it would be nice to make it more accessible to the rest of the Rust community.
