The GIMP API has been undergoing some big changes in this development cycle and the Script-Fu scripts have not fully caught up with all the changes. I usually do much of the work to update Script-Fu scripts to the latest API as I have a Perl based script that automates the update procedure. This script uses information generated by running other Perl based scripts against a PDB dump from GIMP. I am in the process of updating my update script but its a big job this time. There are 107 changes to the PDB since the release of the 2.6 version of GIMP and three different types of changes that have to be handled across 100 scripts. The first change is the common one where deprecated procedures just need minor updates (ie. changing to the procedure name to the replacement procedure). The other two changes involve PDB procedures with some parameters now set via context functions and the introduction of the item API. These last two changes will require more work to handle in an automated manner. Until recently some deprecated procedures referred to a replacement procedure that did not exist. This has been fixed so the PDB is complete and stable enough for now to begin the work to update my update script. I will be reviewing the updates originally made to the scripts for 2.7 API as I have seen some changes to the called procedures are not correct as of the current API. Until now, updating the scripts can usually be done in about 15 minutes starting from the running of GIMP to get a current dump of the PDB (if there are no other unusual changes). I will be doing the work for 2.7/2.8 in two stages with the simple changes as the first stage and the changes involving context and item API as the second stage. I'm currently working on two other projects so I'm doing this as time permits. _______________________________________________ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
