[Announce] PyGooCanvas 0.10.0

Recommended Posts

I am pleased to announce version 0.10.0 of the Python bindings for Goocanvas.

 

It is available at:

 

https://developer.berlios.de/projects/pygoocanvas/

 

The bindings are updated with the new Goocanvas API

 

PyGooCanvas 0.10.0 (May 01 2008)

==================

 

o Install a .pc file (Gustavo)

o Add goocanvas.ItemSimple.bounds getsets (Gustavo)

o prevent PYGTK from being imported into goocanvasmodule,

patch from Randall Wood. Fixes LP#150412

o fix object registration TYPE_CAIRO_PATTERN (Gian Mario)

o New custom example for SVG images. (Gian Mario)

o update with new goocanvas 0.10 API (Gian Mario)

o fix a bug introduced by pycairo API change, see LP#222503

reported by David Boucher (Gian Mario)

o Update docs according to new API (Gian Mario)

 

Blurb:

======

 

Goocanvas [1] is a canvas widget for GTK+, It is similar in many ways

to FooCanvas, hence the name, but it uses cairo for rendering, it has

an optional model/view split, and uses interfaces for items & views

(so you can easily turn any application object into a canvas item or

view).

 

PyGooCanvas is a wrapper which exposes the goocanvas API to the

python world. It is fairly complete; most of the API are covered.

 

The documentation is done, anyway bug reports on docs are really

important to improve the documentation.

 

Like the GTK+ library, PyGTK and GooCanvas itself PyGooCanvas is

licensed under the GNU LGPL, so is suitable for use in both

free software and proprietary applications.

 

PyGooCanvas requires:

=====================

 

o Goocanvas >= 0.10.0

o PyGObject >= 2.10.1 (2.11.3 to build the docs)

o PyGTK >= 2.10.4

o PyCairo >= 1.4.0

 

Bug reports should go to

https://launchpad.net/pygoocanvas/

 

[1] http://sourceforge.net/projects/goocanvas

 

cheers
