§ ¶Slogging away
I've been down in the trenches in Gtk# for the past couple weeks. Exterminating dozens of bugs that have been getting flushed out of the woodwork by the MD folks. It's nice to have a big actively developed app stressing the binding. I've also been slowly improving the parser to get more API into the binding.
Yesterday, I committed a new module to mono-cvs which, in totally unimaginative manner, I named dbus-sharp. If you are interesting in inter-process communication over the desktop, try it out and let me know how many pieces it breaks into.
My last blog entry mentioned that I am on the verge of making what will hopefully be the last wide scale API changes to Gtk#. I decided to hold off on those while I scrub the buglist and get out another release. Hopefully 0.16 will be ready to roll end of this week. Once it's out, my next task will be to get those API changes in, so I'll change my warning to be "stick to 0.16 unless you want to feel the API breakage pain."
So, if you have an interest in tutorials, documentation, etc... for Gtk#, please update them to the current API so they will be ready for the 0.16 release. Is that enough of a warning, Daniel? :-)
