GObject introspection #19

Open albfan opened 6 years ago

albfan commented 6 years ago

Reading https://skaba.wordpress.com/2010/09/20/status-of-gobject-introspection-for-java-gnome/

seems some work had been done. But all the links to bzr repos are broken.

Is there the WIP uploaded anywhere?

Is it possible to contact with Serkan Kaba? The original repo is something like

I don't have that code, sorry. @skaba you still reachable?

albfan commented 6 years ago

I contact him by mail, and he don't have it avaliable (he refers me to you). Is it possible to contact someone on http://research.operationaldynamics.com?

I found another possible WIP https://github.com/respawner/java-gnome/tree/introspection. Were you aware of that work? seems my best shot by now.

I'm redoing the automatic introspection on my own, I'm just looking for previous work if it can help to get progress faster, since what is avaliable on java-gnome just works, so it is only matter of adopt new features since Gtk 3.0.4.

People is still using java-gnome on 2018 https://origendata.com/2018/04/03/usando-gtktreeview-generado-en-glade-con-java-con-conexion-a-postgresql/. Amazing!

I'm part of GNOME newcomers initiative and java seems to me the best entry point to learn Gtk for them

He was also part of the team, not sure how much he reused from my WIP and ideas but at least the code is still accessible. On Sunday, April 22, 2018, 8:16:17 AM GMT+2, Alberto Fanjul notifications@github.com wrote:

@skaba thanks. Then I will use that as the WIP for automatic GIR parsing.

I found another approach https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/JGIR

Do you know that work? Do you have an opinion of what could be the best approach for Gtk java bindings (in terms of design)?

Lastly to close this: Any tips and hints of what can be problematic in this automatic GIR parsing?

Again thanks for your work in past years
