C++ libs on win32
by Bob Jamison 21 Aug '06

21 Aug '06

Hi, all. Although we have been keeping somewhat up-to-date with bugfix versions of the gtk+ C libs for the last year, the C++ libraries (libsigc++, glibmm, gtkmm) have not been updated at all in that same time, and I have been worried that a mismatch might start generating bugs. So today I built those libs atop the current gtk+ libs, and uploaded them here: http://inkscape.modevia.com/win32libs/gtk28-060820.7z You don't really -need- this one, but if you use it, there is one small difference. Since the previous gtkmm set was built with the cross-compiler, the variable GLIBMM_DLL was not defined properly. So to make the compiling and linking with DLLs work ok, we define it in Makefile.mingw.common as -DGLIBMM_DLL. In the new set, that variable exists properly, so you will get warnings that GLIBMM_DLL has been redefined. I guess in a week or so it would be good to take it out. But for people who have the new stuff it is a warning and with the old stuff, it is an error. Better safe than sorry. bob

Thanks Ariya. I'm compiling from svn and didn't realise it was in the tree. I'm getting an error: extension/internal/wpg-input.cpp:48:27: libwpg/libwpg.h: No such file or directory In file included from extension/internal/wpg-input.cpp:49: extension/internal/libwpg/WPGStreamImplementation.h:37: warning: `class libwpg::WPGFileStream' has virtual functions but non-virtual destructor extension/internal/libwpg/WPGStreamImplementation.h:60: warning: `class libwpg::WPGMemoryStream' has virtual functions but non-virtual destructor But copying libwpg.h from the CVS source (from sf.net) to ./src/extension/internal/ gets me going again. I still get lots of warnings like: In file included from extension/internal/libwpg/WPGXParser.cpp:28: extension/internal/libwpg/WPGXParser.h:40: warning: `class WPGXParser' has virtual functions but non-virtual destructor Cheers pbhj On Thursday 17 August 2006 22:04, you wrote: > Hi pbhj, > > > Oh btw does anyone know where to get libwpg.

compiling svn on slack, en_GB.po problems!
by pbhj 17 Aug '06

17 Aug '06

Well I don't know what changed but before I was getting errors on ja.po and zh_*.po (and equivalent .gmo files). Now it's en_GB.po that's not playing fair. Googling turned up a foreign language page that mentioned aspell so I updated that. I've also recently slapt-get updated gettext and gettext-tools (which provide msgfmt I gather). I still can't compile ... Making all in po make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/local/svn/inkscape/po' file=./`echo en_GB | sed 's,.*/,,'`.gmo \ && rm -f $file && /usr/bin/msgfmt -c -o $file en_GB.po en_GB.po:12:27: parse error /usr/bin/msgfmt: en_GB.po: warning: PO file header missing or invalid warning: charset conversion will not work /usr/bin/msgfmt: found 2 fatal errors make[2]: *** [en_GB.gmo] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/svn/inkscape/po' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/svn/inkscape' make: *** [all] Error 2 In fact I've been trying to compile an SVN since before 0.44 came out and haven't yet managed. The only reason I tried in the first place was that the wiki mentions that svn are made to at least compile even if they then bork out. I'm not new to compiling either ... I've rolled my own kernel and can make minor source changes, I've even installed transcode(!) before. Any thoughts on what to do ... perhaps just give up!?

PRE-ANNOUNCE : LGM 2 MONTREAL MAY 4-5-6
by Bryce Harrington 17 Aug '06

17 Aug '06

FYI... The 2006 LGM was quite good. ----- Forwarded message from Louis Desjardins <louis_desjardins@...747...> ----- Date: Wed, 16 Aug 2006 12:55:38 -0400 From: Louis Desjardins <louis_desjardins@...747...> To: create@...626... Subject: [CREATE] PRE-ANNOUNCE : LGM 2 MONTREAL MAY 4-5-6 Bonjour ?? tous! G'day everybody! It is my pleasure to announce that next LGM will take place in Montreal on MAY 4-5-6. The event will be hosted by ??cole Polytechnique http://www.polymtl.ca/ from which we get *strong* support. Although we have made sure this week-end is OK for most of you, I urge one last time the participating teams to show up very very quickly on the CREATE list *if* there is a major issue with those dates as to prevent them to be present. Otherwise, we will consider these dates as fine and will be pleased to welcome you all in Montreal on the first week-end of MAY 2007 ! :) We needed to secure tightly a few things (no preferred order). 1. Availability from our host, ??cole Polytechnique. 2. Room availability from the student residences of the Uni to offer low-cost "hostel" for a good bunch of people. PLEASE NOTE that I would appreciate to know how many people would be interested in that service. The residences (all individual rooms) are located on the campus and we will be able to negociate a good price when we'll have a fair idea of the number of people who will sleep there. 3. Availability from the Soci??t?? des Arts Technologiques (SAT) for an event still to be finalized and sponsored on the Friday night that would gather all participants for supper (and beer, of course), with enough room and to allow lively discussions together! :) Here are the links to SAT for those interested! [FR] http://www.sat.qc.ca/sommaire-sat.php3?id_rubrique=67 [EN] http://www.sat.qc.ca/sommaire-sat.php3?id_rubrique=68 4. Find a week-end that would allow most of the participants to be there. 5. Making sure airplane fares would still be as low as possible, before summertime. I think we all have that with MAY 4-5-6 Please stay tuned. More info will be posted on the wiki at http://create.freedesktop.org/wiki/index.php/Main_Page Thanks to all for helping make LGM Montreal 2007 a great event!

It is interesting that Windows also seems to be affected, though -- that suggests SPSelectContext really is doing something very unkosher with the selection cursor. Just to be absolutely sure we're dealing with the same bug, could you try setting a breakpoint on sp_select_context_update_cursor in gdb, and then stepping through it to see if it crashes there? Bob or other Windows folks should be able to help you out with that if needed. -mental

Problem with INKSCAPE_DATADIR set to "${datarootdir}"
by Michael Wybrow 16 Aug '06

16 Aug '06

Hi all, Inkscape SVN started recently crashing on startup since it can't find any of its share files. This is because of some defines in the generated config.h: #define INKSCAPE_DATADIR "${datarootdir}" #define PACKAGE_LOCALE_DIR "${datarootdir}/locale" Does that look wrong? I believe these should have been expanded to the value of datarootdir. Interestingly the library path is correct: #define INKSCAPE_LIBDIR "/Users/mjwybrow/ws-svn/install/lib" I don't believe I've changed automake or autoconf versions since it last worked for me. This has just appeared after updating from SVN -- I hadn't done an SVN update for a few weeks. Any ideas? Cheer, Michael

Cross compile error
by Michael Moore 15 Aug '06

I'm trying to cross compile Inkscape 0.44. I just re-tested this with a freshly un-tarred download to make sure I hadn't broken something while looking at the code.

Problem compiling with inkboard (win32)
by Hugo Rodrigues 15 Aug '06

15 Aug '06

Hi, I'm having a linking problem when compiling the latest repository revisions, unless I do it without inkboard support (commenting out line CFLAGS += -DWITH_INKBOARD on Makefile.mingw.common ). I think it happens with all revisions since there was a major change to the src/jabber_whiteboard contents last week. It's probably something with my configuration, since noone else seems affected. Can anyone tell me what could be causing this? The following is the error I get, I hope it's enough information, if it isn't let me know.

Re: [Inkscape-devel] Extensions under Windows (was: eps import?)
by Peter Fischer 14 Aug '06

14 Aug '06

Hello Ulf, Thank you for your reply. I solved my problem temporarily by hand (using pstoedit). Now I asked me about the other way: svg to ps/eps/ps? Export in Inkscape works but transparency is lost and svg2pdf is rastering the image. Could you (or anyone from the list) tell me a tool which can convert directly svg to one of the postscript formats (without rastering, maintaining the vector information), ideally under windows or linux? I need it for LaTeX. Best regards, Peter. -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Ulf Erikson [mailto:ulferikson@...400...] Gesendet: Freitag, 11.

The extension-errors.log says for "EPS Input" that "gs" > is not found. There is usually no "gs" to be find in the path under Windows, you have "gswin32.exe". Try change share/extensions/eps_input.inx to reflect this. It looks like you will need "pstoedit" and "skconvert" too, and there is even a shell script used (try change "sk2svg.sh" into "sh sk2svg.sh"?). Many of the other external input/output extensions seem to be equally flawed. It doesn't look like installing the extra software and put it in the path is enough to enable extensions under Windows. What is the best way to fix this? Always use double .inx files? (Like the old pdf_output_on_win32.inx which also uses a .bat instead of the .sh). Or maybe use perl or python instead of shell scripts? What about the different dependencies? (gs vs. gswin32.exe)
