How to use the Gtk# code generator:
|
|
|
|
Install dependencies:
|
|
* You need to install the XML::LibXML perl bindings and Gtk#.
|
|
|
|
Within your project directory, do the following:
|
|
* Setup a toplevel subdirectory for each namespace/assembly you
|
|
are wrapping. Instruct the makefile for this directory to compile,
|
|
at minimum, generated/*.
|
|
* Write a .sources file listing the source directories for the
|
|
libraries you will be wrapping, one line per directory. The
|
|
format is: "directory namespace library".
|
|
* Run gapi.pp SOURCEFILE APIDIR where SOURCEFILE is the sources file
|
|
you just wrote, and APIDIR is the directory to place the API XML
|
|
descriptions in.
|
|
* Run gapi_codegen.exe on the API files you created. If you depend
|
|
on any other wrapped libraries (such as gtk-sharp.dll), you need to
|
|
include their API listings via the --include directive.
|
|
The code generator, if successful, will have populated the assembly
|
|
directories with generated/ directories.
|
|
|
|
It is generally helpful to automate this process with makefiles. Gtk# uses
|
|
the following organization:
|
|
sources/: Source directories, .sources listing, .metadata files.
|
|
Is not listed in SUBDIRS, developers run make manually here when
|
|
they want to update the API files.
|
|
api/: API files written here. They are committed to CVS and included
|
|
in releases for the convenience of the lib user.
|
|
This _is_ listed in SUBDIRS, the generator directives are in
|
|
this makefile. (And hence api needs to be listed before
|
|
the assembly directories)
