RE: [platform-swt-dev] patch for gtk2 binding
|
Next
week is the GNOME Summit in Boston. The primary purpose
of
this
summit is to plan the features/enhancements for the next
releases
of
GTK/GNOME. I think this might be an opportunity to express
your
issues
and concerns.

SWT needs to be a first class citizen w.r.t. GTK. We
definately want to use native widgets whenever they are available/compatible
and remove all possible uses of deprecated methods. It seems to me though,
that there are still some cases where there is a disconnect between the SWT
and GTK programming models which can only be resolved by using deprecated
methods. [Silenio/Boris: True?] If we find that this is unavoidable, we
would likely need to get some of these things either un-deprecated or
equivalent functionality added to GTK.
