digitalmars.D.announce - SWT tioported

TioPort is a Java to D converter.

www.dsource.org/projects/tioport

The main reason for starting this project was, to create a SWT port for
Linux, Windows and Mac OSX. The convertion is going fully automatically,
so it should be possible to update to upcoming SWT releases.

You can download the current snapshot of the converted SWT:

http://dsource.org/projects/tioport/browser/downloads/swt-3.2.1-win32.zip?format=raw

The SWT examples:
see the repository in trunk/ports/swt-3.2.1/swt-3.2.1-examples

Screenshots of the examples:

Great work - I really appreciate it!

I was looking for good, cross-platform GUI toolkit for D for quite a 
long time.

And additionally Java to D converter! Really great!

I couldn't find any build instructions.  What would the command line be 
for building the paint example with bud?

I fixed a couple of missing imports, but I wasn't able to get rid of all 
the missing symbols when linking.  Sorry I didn't keep the error messages.

The zip file only contain the raw converted SWT sources. You cannot
build any example with them.

1. Make a checkout
"svn co http://svn.dsource.org/projects/tioport/trunk tioport"

2. Go to the example dir
ports/swt-3.2.1/swt-3.2.1-examples

3. You need rebuild installed.

4. Call the Build file:
For linux there is a Makefile.linux
	make -f Makefile.linux paint

For windows there is there is a paint_win32_build.bat file.
	paint_win32_build.bat

Well i am a linux dmd user. :)
That means, i cannot build libs. Especially not for windows.

Perhaps somebody can contribute a makefile/buildfile and compiled libs?

In the svn repository, there is now a deploy directory.

For linux it contains now a precompiled lib and all headers. This
decreases compile time from ~30 sec to ~5 sec on my machine.

For windows i hope for someone to take the Ticket 15, creating such a
lib for windows.

About dejavu http://www.dsource.org/projects/tioport/wiki/dejavu


Why not using a port of the java original including the implementations?

Copyright

Why not using the GNU classpath?

GPL



    Why not use Harmony?

Because at some level, you need to implement system functionality, and to
some degree, the JRE is atomic operations of Java. I agree with Frank that
this is the sensible level to do the necessary D implementation.

SWT uses only a very limited subset of the JRE.
So it was not so hard to do an own implementation without the worry or
licenses.
While thinking about porting other apps, it looks like, this is a much
more difficult task. Hopefully Sun will release the JRE in the OpenJDK
project in the next few months. Then it is GPL and i am thinking about
porting it then.

In the meantime I want to use own implementations.

This is quite amazing... are you telling me that Windows, Linux, and Mac 
OSX ports of DWT are done, and done automatically?

You should probably post this in the d.D.dwt newsgroup as well.

are you using the checkout and the paint_win32_rebuild.rf ?

The resources_getDataById function is a function from a generated file,
e.g. resources_paint.d. It is necessary to give it explicitly to the
compiler/linker. The .rf file above does already include it, so it
should work.

today doob and I had a longer session, trying to get the examples
running on his windows box. He also got the access violation. It turns
out, the lib i compiled needs to match exactly the tango version.

After he build the tioport-swt-3.2.1-win32.lib on his own machine, it
worked.

The actual repository can build the precompiled libs and examples with
DSSS 0.61

See the README in /trunk

For windows it is necessary to either grab the rebuild.exe from the
dsss-svn/trunk/rebuild/rebuild.exe, or wait for the next DSSS release.
