Documentation on GtkBuilder

Tue, 15/01/2008 - 12:16 — Lars Gierth

Hey folks!

I read that Glade is deprecated and replaced by GtkBuilder in another topic, but I couldn't find any documentation related to it, even on the official site.
Can you help me out?

Gtkbuilder

Gtkbuilder works almost exactly like libglade - with a few differences.

First of all, the xml syntax is slightly different. The best documentation for GtkBuilder can be found at gtk.org - http://library.gnome.org/devel/gtk/stable/GtkBuilder.html - if you scroll down you'll find an example xml widget and links to widget specific xml formats.

There is some support for gtkbuilder in the PHP-GTK 2.0.0 release, however for full support you'll need a cvs version of php-gtk2. You also must be using GTK 2.12 or higher.

http://cvs.php.net/viewvc.cgi/php-gtk/demos/examples/gtkbuilder_api.php?... - here is an example page of how to use gtkbuilder - as you can see it basically works just like glade. The one difference being it expects multiple small xml files instead of using one large file and only constructing a portion of the tree by using a root value.

But, the real question is... How to compile gtk-php to get full GTKBuilder support?

Full support is in PHP-GTK

Full support is in PHP-GTK 2.0.1

To get gtkbuilder support you need to have gtk 2.12 or higher libraries - it's part of core gtk starting with 2.12,
php-gtk should detect your gtk version when you compile and include support

Windows php-gtk builds already have it enabled

Well, i have gtk 2.12.9 (dev files too)...

this is part of my config.log file

$ ./configure --with-extra --with-html --with-sourceview --with-spell
.......
configure:4623: checking for GTK+ - version >= 2.6.0
configure:4745: gcc -o conftest -g -O2 -I/usr/include/gtk-2.0 -I/usr/lib/gtk-2.0/include -I/usr/include/atk-1.0 -I/usr/include/cairo -I/usr/include/pango-1.0 -I/usr/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/lib/glib-2.0/include -I/usr/include/freetype2 -I/usr/include/libpng12 -I/usr/include/pixman-1     conftest.c -lgtk-x11-2.0 -lgdk-x11-2.0 -latk-1.0 -lgdk_pixbuf-2.0 -lm -lpangocairo-1.0 -lpango-1.0 -lcairo -lgobject-2.0 -lgmodule-2.0 -ldl -lglib-2.0    >&5
configure:4748: $? = 0
configure:4754: ./conftest
configure:4757: $? = 0
configure:4777: result: yes (version 2.12.9)

Anyways, i can't get the GTKBuilder support...

Some users have reported

Some users have reported issues using the tarball to build php-gtk2 - I'm not an autotools guru - however it DOES build correctly from cvs

check out php-gtk from cvs.php.net/php-gtk - grab the 2.0.1 tag if you want the release version

cvs -d :pserver:cvsread@cvs.php.net:/repository checkout -r php_gtk_2_0_1 -P php-gtk

phpfi is the password - cd to the directory, do buildconf, configure, make
