Classes
|
||||
=======
|
||||
|
||||
Currently none of the classes raise exceptions.
|
||||
|
||||
*NSActionCell:: [10]*
|
||||
Should not require any implementation in the backend as it is an
|
||||
abstract class which only defines behaviour.
|
||||
|
||||
*NSApplication:: [6]*
|
||||
The event handling has been integrated with the NSRunLoop class.
|
||||
Many of the minor methods are implemented. No window ordering is
|
||||
being maintained, and a number of the methods that perform
|
||||
operations on windows are empty. Modal loops are not implemented.
|
||||
|
||||
*NSBitmapImageRep:: [4]*
|
||||
Implementation has been filled out enough so that TIFF images can
|
||||
be displayed; its possible that not all TIFF image types are
|
||||
handled yet as the backend implementation must deal with each of
|
||||
them. No compression nor generation of TIFF representations.
|
||||
|
||||
*NSBox:: [9]*
|
||||
Should be complete; will need some additional testing when view
|
||||
resizing is implemented.
|
||||
|
||||
*NSBrowser:: [9]*
|
||||
There is an odd display artifact; lists which are smaller than the
|
||||
browser column area have the list justified to the bottom of the
|
||||
column versus the top of the column. This is actually an issue
|
||||
with NSMatrix and will be remedied when flip views are implemented.
|
||||
|
||||
*NSBrowserCell:: [9]*
|
||||
Should be complete.
|
||||
|
||||
*NSButton:: [9]*
|
||||
Repeat intervals have been implemented. Key equivalents still
|
||||
need to be implemented. There should be little need for backend
|
||||
implementation as NSButton is mainly behavior; its cell class does
|
||||
all drawing.
|
||||
|
||||
*NSButtonCell:: [10]*
|
||||
This class is fully implemented.
|
||||
|
||||
*NSCachedImageRep:: [4]*
|
||||
All methods are implemented but its unknown if the class works.
|
||||
|
||||
*NSCell:: [8]*
|
||||
No determination of component sizes. Editing text, validating
|
||||
input, represented object, and some other odd and end methods not
|
||||
implemented.
|
||||
|
||||
*NSClipView:: [9]*
|
||||
The class has been implemented but does not work yet with copy on
|
||||
scroll.
|
||||
|
||||
*NSColor:: [8]*
|
||||
Now implements all colorspaces; however, does not know the
|
||||
difference between calibrated and device.
|
||||
|
||||
*NSColorList:: [9]*
|
||||
Implementation should be fairly complete; may need some work for
|
||||
reading and writing color list files.
|
||||
|
||||
*NSColorPanel:: [2]*
|
||||
*NSColorPicker:: [2]*
|
||||
*NSColorWell:: [9]*
|
||||
Implementation should be fairly complete; backend implementation
|
||||
required for the actual drawing of the control. Needs drag-n-drop
|
||||
capability.
|
||||
|
||||
*NSControl:: [8]*
|
||||
No field editor; doesn't know how to calculate its size.
|
||||
|
||||
*NSCursor:: [8]*
|
||||
Implementation should be fairly complete; backend implementation
|
||||
required to be usable. May not handle user specified images.
|
||||
|
||||
*NSCustomImageRep:: [4]*
|
||||
All methods are implemented but it is unknown if the class works.
|
||||
|
||||
*NSDataLink:: [2]*
|
||||
*NSDataLinkManager:: [2]*
|
||||
*NSDataLinkPanel:: [2]*
|
||||
*NSDPSContext:: [6]*
|
||||
Enough implementation for the backend to do something useful; most
|
||||
methods that deal specifically with Display Ghostscript are empty.
|
||||
|
||||
*NSEPSImageRep:: [2]*
|
||||
*NSEvent:: [9]*
|
||||
All methods implemented including periodic events.
|
||||
|
||||
*NSFont:: [9]*
|
||||
Now maintains AFM and glyph information but requires the backend
|
||||
implementation to supply it.
|
||||
|
||||
*NSFontManager:: [6]*
|
||||
Has been filled out some more so as to be usable with the Display
|
||||
Ghostscript System, but still requires additional work.
|
||||
|
||||
*NSFontPanel:: [2]*
|
||||
May be usable with backend implementation.
|
||||
|
||||
*NSForm:: [8]*
|
||||
The code has been written, it greatly depends on NSMatrix, but no
|
||||
tests have been done.
|
||||
|
||||
*NSFormCell:: [8]*
|
||||
The code has been written but no tests have been done.
|
||||
|
||||
*NSHelpPanel:: [2]*
|
||||
*NSImage:: [8]*
|
||||
Additional implementation to the point where TIFF images can be
|
||||
displayed; requires sufficient backend implementation in the
|
||||
NSImageRep classes.
|
||||
|
||||
*NSImageRep:: [8]*
|
||||
Additional implementation to the point where TIFF images can be
|
||||
displayed; requires sufficient backend implementation.
|
||||
|
||||
*NSMatrix:: [9]*
|
||||
The class is almost completely implemented, only the methods that
|
||||
deal with text selection and moving from a text field to another
|
||||
using TAB and SHIFT-TAB are empty.
|
||||
|
||||
*NSMenu:: [10]*
|
||||
The class is complete now, all the logic is here, the backend
|
||||
needs to write only the code that deals with displaying the menu
|
||||
windows on screen. For an example of how this is achieved take a
|
||||
look to the XDPS backend.
|
||||
|
||||
*NSMenuItem:: [10]*
|
||||
The logic is here, but needs support for drawing the cell in the
|
||||
backend. Also take a look to the XDPS backend to see how this
|
||||
works.
|
||||
|
||||
*NSOpenPanel:: [3]*
|
||||
Usability greatly depends upon backend implementation.
|
||||
|
||||
*NSPageLayout:: [2]*
|
||||
*NSPanel:: [2]*
|
||||
*NSPasteboard:: [2]*
|
||||
*NSPopUpButton:: [4]*
|
||||
Usability greatly depends upon backend implementation.
|
||||
|
||||
*NSPrinter:: [9]*
|
||||
The code was written but not tested very much. We also need to add
|
||||
printer description files to the PrinterTypes directory inside the
|
||||
gnustep instalation directory.
|
||||
|
||||
*NSPrintinfo:: [9]*
|
||||
The code has been implemented but not tested.
|
||||
|
||||
*NSPrintOperation:: [2]*
|
||||
*NSPrintPanel:: [2]*
|
||||
*NSResponder:: [9]*
|
||||
Shouldn't require any backend implementation; all methods are
|
||||
implemented.
|
||||
|
||||
*NSSavePanel:: [3]*
|
||||
Usability greatly depends upon backend implementation.
|
||||
|
||||
*NSScreen:: [6]*
|
||||
Knows nothing about window depth, greatly depends upon backend
|
||||
implementation.
|
||||
|
||||
*NSScroller:: [10]*
|
||||
Completely implemented.
|
||||
|
||||
*NSScrollView:: [8]*
|
||||
The code has been implemented though it does not deal yet with
|
||||
copy on scroll.
|
||||
|
||||
*NSSelection:: [2]*
|
||||
*NSSlider:: [10]*
|
||||
Implemented. Does not require backend support.
|
||||
|
||||
*NSSliderCell:: [10]*
|
||||
Implemented. Requires only a method to be implemented in the
|
||||
backend.
|
||||
|
||||
*NSSpellChecker:: [2]*
|
||||
*NSSpellServer:: [2]*
|
||||
*NSSplitView:: [2]*
|
||||
*NSText:: [2]*
|
||||
*NSTextField:: [8]*
|
||||
Does not properly send text delegate messages. Does not handle
|
||||
selection yet and does not hide the cursor when it resigns as the
|
||||
first responder.
|
||||
|
||||
*NSTextFieldCell:: [4]*
|
||||
Usability greatly depends upon backend implementation.
|
||||
|
||||
*NSView:: [6]*
|
||||
Maintains subview lists, notification of new window, send resizing
|
||||
messages to subviews. Rotation, scaling and translation of user
|
||||
coordinate space have been implemented. Event handling and
|
||||
tracking rectangles implemented. Cursor management implemented.
|
||||
No autoscrolling capability. No printing or paging.
|
||||
|
||||
*NSWindow:: [4]*
|
||||
Most methods not implemented, but maybe usable with backend
|
||||
implementation.
|
||||
|
||||
*NSWorkspace:: [2]*
|
||||

Projects Looking for Volunteers
|
||||
===============================
|
||||
|
||||
If you think you can do one of these projects, please let me know. Your
|
||||
help is greatly appreciated. Send email to <scottc@net-community.com>.
|
||||
|
||||
* Write code! The GNUstep GUI Library is far from complete, so
|
||||
there are plenty of areas awaiting contribution.
|
||||
|
||||
* Printing architecture. Careful thoughts needs to go into how the
|
||||
printing capabilities can be done in the most portable way,
|
||||
possibly take into consideration systems that don't support the
|
||||
Display Ghostscript System and/or printing to non-Postscript
|
||||
printers.
|
||||
|
||||
* Drag and drop/pasteboard framework. Is there a way this can be
|
||||
done so that all GNU programs can take advantage of it and not
|
||||
just GNUstep? That would be optimal because GNUstep and
|
||||
non-GNUstep programs would then be able to partially interoperate.
|
||||
|
||||
* Expand the image handling capabilities beyond OpenStep. There is
|
||||
no reason why we must limit ourselves to EPS and TIFF bitmaps, we
|
||||
should have image representations for as many bitmap formats as
|
||||
possible; excluding GIF files which are currently restricted by
|
||||
patents.
|
||||
|
||||
* The spell server and checker; along with this would be to create an
|
||||
interface with the GNU Dictionary project.
|
||||
|
||||
* GNUstep window manager. Though not part of the GUI Library per
|
||||
se, an X Window manager that gives the complete desktop the
|
||||
GNUstep look and feel would be a great thing to have. There is
|
||||
actually some work that has been started; a clearly defined
|
||||
interface between GNUstep and the X Window manager needs to be
|
||||
defined and implemented.
