Heck, I've use glib, gtk, pango, atk to build other software. And I _know_
that it compiles clean. At this point (after digging thru the include files)
I'm not sure I know how it could compile at all.
Big changes between the glib-1.2 and the glib-2.0 version and specificly
regarding glib.h. In three instances that I've found glib.h contains (and
only contains) includes of <glib/gxxxxx.h> form
and the gxxxx are in alpha order
When I was building something (evolution, gtkhtml or something) the compile
failed. It failed because G_BEGIN_DECL had not been defined when first used
by gtypes.h when included by galloca.h.
and likewise for a few other things. I rearranged glib.h so that
#include <glib/gmacro.h>
#include <glib/gtypes.h>
#include <glib/galloca.h>
were first
and then I was stumped by another problem the typedef 'gsize' isn't defined
in glib. (it's used extensively but not defined -and- it was defined in
glib.h (version 1.2). The first and closest typedef of 'gsize' is in the gobj
include directory.
so why does any of this compile? I would have thought the test cases would
have caught those compile type errors.
(heck the only thing I can think of is that other includes had already
defined those typedefs from another set of library references. But I think
that glib should not be dependant on any other of the gnome libraries unless
it is so documented..)
