- go through ALL the objective-c objects we create and make sure we are using the proper ownership (alloc/init and new are owned by us, all class method constructors are autoreleased - thanks mikeash)
- make it so that the windows cntrols only register a resize if their new minimum size is larger than their current size to easen the effect of flicker
- note that if a menu is requested on systems with menubars on windows but no menus are defined, the result is a blank menubar, with whatever that means left up to the OS to decide
- now that stock items are deprecated, I have to maintain translations of the Cancel, Open, and Save buttons on GTK+ myself (thanks baedert in irc.gimp.net/#gtk+)
[00:10:08] <hergertme> andlabs: is there API yet to load from memory? last i checked i only found from file (which we use in builder). https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-builder/tree/libide/editor/ide-editor-map-bin.c#n115

[00:15:19] <andlabs> hergertme: no, which is why I was asking =P
[00:15:30] <andlabs> I would have dug down if I could ensure at least something about the backends a GTK+ 3 program uses
[00:15:39] <andlabs> on all platforms except windows and os x
[00:16:11] <hergertme> to the best of my (partially outdated, given pace of foss) knowledge there isn't an api to load from memory
[00:16:28] <hergertme> you can possibly make a tmpdir and put a temp file in there
[00:16:52] <hergertme> and load that as your font dir in your FcConfig, so any PangoFontDescription would point to that one font, no matter what
[00:17:18] <hergertme> (using the API layed out in that link)

[00:40:38] <andlabs> hergertme: not necessarily fontconfig
[00:40:45] <andlabs> it can be with ft2 or xft I guess
[00:40:55] <andlabs> especially since I want the API NOT to make the font part of the font panel
[00:42:07] <hergertme> what sort of deprecated code are you trying to support?
[00:42:35] <hergertme> both of those are deprecated in pango fwiw
[00:43:06] <hergertme> on Linux im pretty sure we use FC everywhere these days
[00:44:46] <hergertme> (and gtk_widget_set_font_map() is how you get your custom font into a widget without affecting the global font lists, as layed out in that link)

[01:07:51] <andlabs> hergertme: hm
[01:07:54] <andlabs> all right, thanks
[01:08:05] <andlabs> hergertme: fwiw right now my requirement is 3.10
[01:10:47] <hergertme> ah, well you'll probably be missing the neccesary font API on gtk_widget
[01:11:04] <hergertme> but pango should be fine even back as far as https://developer.gnome.org/pango/1.28/PangoFcFontMap.html
[01:11:56] <andlabs> good
[01:12:04] <andlabs> because this is for custom drawing into a DrawingArea
[01:14:12] <hergertme> presumably just create your PangoContext as normal, but call pango_context_set_font_map() with the map you've setup. now, the load a font from a file i dont think was added to FontConfig until later though (not sure what release)
- Mouse ClickLock: do we need to do anything special? *should* we? https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms724947(v=vs.85).aspx
- consider a uiAnticipateDoubleClick() or uiDoubleClickTime() (for a uiQueueTimer()) or something: https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/oldnewthing/20041015-00/?p=37553
On Unix systems, this will make linker report any unresolved symbols from object files (which is quite typical when you compile many targets in CMake projects, but do not bother with linking target dependencies in proper order).
(I used to have something like this back when I used makefiles; did it convert in? I forget)
