Yes, I guess that is true, the original authors seems all to be retired. For IRC or devel list, I fear situation is not really better, and I do not really want to make noise there, the few remaining developers may have to do more important stuff. > All GC language bindings will immediately sink the floating reference, > as it makes memory management harder for them (it's a C feature, after > all).

That is an interesting hint. Indeed I did that in my first draft about a year ago, before I discovered g_object_add_toggle_ref() function. Of course it makes sense to use it in combination. At least basically my Nim wrapper is working already -- maybe for details I will have to look at wrappers for other languages. Maybe I should consider contacting the Rust developers, as Rust is also a compiled language, and they have some GTK bindings. _______________________________________________ gtk-list mailing list gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
