GOB : GObject Builder

Posted in GNOME by murdos on the June 12th, 2004

GOB (GOB2 anyway) is a preprocessor for making GObjects with inline C code so that generated files are not edited. Syntax is inspired by Java and Yacc or Lex. The implementation is intentionally kept simple, and no C actual code parsing is done.
Reasons:
* C is a perfect (well mostly) language, no need for another language
* Writing a fully featured GObject is a hassle
* GObject has little type safety, GOB improves on it.
* Need for a generator that doesn’t require changes to generated code
* I like how Java writes method code directly into the class definition.

This document aims to explain the feasibility of image processing using GTK. The document scratches the surface when it comes to explaining the nook & corner of Image processing theory. It shows examples of pixel based filters and convolution filters.

Eclipse Java-GNOME Plugin

Posted in GNOME by murdos on the December 1st, 2003

Un plugin Eclipse qui peut être intéressant pour développer des applications Gnome sous Eclipse.
(necessite Eclipse 3.0 Mx et bien sûr les très prometteurs bindings java pour Gnome).
A tester.

Ajouter à cela Eclipse tournant avec des machines virtuelles libres, et le compilateur Java de GCC, gcj, voilà qui devrait pousser l’adoption de java sous GNU/Linux.
