This is version 0.7.6 of the GNUstep GUI library (`gnustep-gui').
|
|
|
|
What is the GNUstep GUI Library?
|
|
================================
|
|
|
|
It is a library of graphical user interface classes written
|
|
completely in the Objective-C language; the classes are based upon the
|
|
OpenStep specification as release by NeXT Software, Inc. The library
|
|
has been enhanced in a number of ways to take advantage of the GNU
|
|
system. These classes include graphical objects such as buttons, text
|
|
fields, popup lists, browser lists, and windows; there are also many
|
|
associated classes for handling events, colors, fonts, pasteboards and
|
|
images.
|
|
|
|
The GNUstep GUI Library is designed in two parts. The first part is
|
|
the front-end component which is independent of platform and display
|
|
system. This front-end is combined with a back-end component which
|
|
handles all of the display system dependent such as specific calls to
|
|
X/Windows. This design allows the GNUstep applications to have the
|
|
"look and feel" of the underlying display system without any changes to
|
|
the application, and the library can be easily ported to other display
|
|
systems.
|
|
|
|
The GNUstep GUI Library requires the GNU Objective-C compiler, the
|
|
GNUstep Base Library, the TIFF Graphics library, and a back-end
|
|
component like the GNUstep X/GPS GUI Backend.
|
|
|
|
Noteworthy changes in version `0.7.6'
|
|
=====================================
|

|
* NSOutlineView implemented.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Where can you get it? How can you compile it?
|
|
==============================================
|
|
|
|
The gstep-gui-0.7.6.tar.gz distribution file has been placed on
|
|
`ftp.gnustep.org' in `pub/gnustep/core'.
|
|
|
|
the TIFF Graphics library version 3.4 is required.
|
|
|
|
It also requires a FoundationKit library as specified by the OpenStep
|
|
specification. The FoundationKit libraries known to work are the
|
|
GNUstep Base Library.
|
|
|
|
Where do I send bug reports?
