Hey Miller and all,
Happy New Year! I just reviewed the C code in the pd-gui-rewrite branch. There are a number of changes to the C code that have been included in the pd-gui-rewrite branch. There are two types of changes that are included:
- C changes obviated by the Tcl rewrite, things like calling new functions, setting new tags for certain widgets, etc.
- changes needed to sort out building Pd's C code in a more standard way. This goes hand-in-hand with the completely new autotools build system. Things like using the C99 stdint.h for int32_t instead of a complicated, custom set of CPP macros. On that note, I did not change the uint32, etc stuff in d_soundfile.c, but I think should use the C99/ stdint.h defs there as well.
There are two changesets that are not currently submitted to the patch tracker, but if its useful I can submit them. They are:
- Win32/Cygwin fixes in x_misc.c
- the set-path and set-startup messages in m_glob.c that allows the GUI to get the current Path and Startup settings without bringing up the dialog window.
I'm going to start in on the TODOs that are scattered thru-out, let me know on how best to proceed on merging.
