libxfce4ui

Libxfce4ui is a project mainly written in C, based on the View license.

XFCE UI Library

What is it?

This is libxfce4ui, the replacement of the old libxfcegui4 library. It is used to share commonly used Xfce widgets amoung the Xfce applications.

Required packages

Libxfce4ui depends on the following packages:

  • GTK+ 2.10.0 or above
  • GLib 2.12.0 or above
  • Libxfce4util 4.4.0 or above

Installation

The file 'INSTALL' contains generic installation instructions.

Debugging Support

Libxfce4ui currently supports four different levels of debugging support, which can be setup using the configure flag --enable-debug' (check the output of configure --help'):

`full' Use this if you want to debug libxfce4ui to locate a bug. The build will most probably be noticably slower. This is also recommended for people that want to develop Xfce applications.

`yes' This is the default for SVN snapshot builds. It adds all kinds of checks to the code, and is therefore likely to run slower. Use this if you want to develop for Xfce.

`minimum' This is the default for release builds, and presents the recommended behaviour.

`no' Disables all sanity checks. Don't use this unless you know exactly what you do.

How to report bugs?

Bugs should be reported to the Xfce bug tracking system (http://bugzilla.xfce.org, product Libxfce4ui). You will need to create an account for yourself.

Please read the HACKING file for information on where to send changes or bugfixes for this package.
