I noticed that folks on c.l.f did not take much interest in this. I suppose
because people who need high performance graphics are already using various
available tools.
I see this as a nitch tool and its use will grow as people learn how easy it is
to use. There is a learning curve of course.
Vincent now has a Python script that is taking the gtk+ .h files and generating
the Fortran interfaces. The function count is now up above 4000 functions and
gives pretty much complete access to all of gtk+ and then some. It has not been
committed to the repository yet, but will soon.
Hats off to Vincent Magnin for doing this. I really think we need to consider
adding an intrinsic module to gfortran (4.7) for this stuff. We also found a bug
related to the correct interface to g_signal_connect_data which has been fixed
in the repository. (Thanks to a new user who figured that out)
Cheers,
Jerry
