C::B under linux

[mandrav]

The last couple of days I 've been spending some time with C::B under ubuntu 5.04.
I 've got some good news and some bad news :?

Good things:

• Fixed the disappearing editor caret and focus line
• Updated the Makefile.unix* files
• Enabled the opened files tree
• Found the cause for two bugs: "crash on to-do user select" and "crash on invoking code-completion". They 're not quick-fixes though, so it will take a while until they 're fixed.

Bad things:

• Works only with wxGTK-2.4.2

It seems that something's changed in the order of events firing in wxGTK-2.6.x. I get crashes in GetClientSize(), wxYield(), wxSafeYield(), etc. I can't make heads or tails out of it...
[/list]

I haven't commited anything in CVS yet, but I will later today.
This is just to keep you posted on my progress.

hmm. I wish I could test it, but my own linux/windows box is not here at home and I was sure I could compile C::B with wx2.6.1 :?

--edit--
hmm. no I didn't, I just looked into my own sig  :?

:lol: :lol: :lol:

BTW, why is it that C::B cant compile in Linux with Wx 2.6.1?

For the bug fixings that is a REAL gool thing

What about the Gtk-CRITICALs and the segfault when we quit the app?

mispunt >> it seems that it compiles with wx 2.6 but it crashes ^^

It compiles fine with wx2.6.1 but doesn't start...

Maybe it's time to stop doing recursive wxYield's and redesign those parts of the program? Just a thought. :roll:
