Glade 3.6.5 Released (and win32/mac binaries available !)

[Tristan Van Berkom]

Hey,
    Heres another bugfix release, this time I did finally
nail the erratic widget names that I thought I had fixed,
and thanks to a little help from our friends, we close the
python plugin linkage bug.

Also another announcement, we now have win32 and Mac OSX binaries
distributed on ftp.gnome.org, I just happened to stumble upon
a quartz jhbuild sandbox and Marco Bonifazi has volunteered for
now to wrap up Glade installers for windows.

So thats it, lets hear three loud cheers for Marco !

Hope you Enjoy,
    - The Glade guys


What is Glade ?
===============
Glade is a RAD tool to enable quick & easy development of user
interfaces for the GTK+ toolkit and the GNOME desktop environment.
The user interfaces designed in Glade are stored in an XML format
which is understood natively by GTK+, also enabling easy
integration with external tools.

===========
Glade 3.6.5
===========
        - Quartz build support and use ige-mac-integration to setup the menubar
          as an optional build dependancy.
        - Fixed dissapearing dialogs on ESC (bug 582559)
        - Really fixing widget naming policies again, this time I hope it
sticks (bug 580745)
        - Fixed relocated link problems with python plugin build (bug 582982,
patch by Arun Raghavan)


Where can I get it ?

Hello,

I have installed and tested Glade 3.6.4 win32 binary version. Upon
startup, the program exited with an error stating that
libgladeui-1-9.dll was missing. After finding the file and copying
into the local directory of the executable, it ran successfully, but
all the icons for the widgets were missing.

In addition, is there a 3.6.5 version for win32 available?

I could attempt to compile from source, but I have never done this before.

Regards,
Fei

Hello "Fei Yuan",
I have tried the same as you and I had the same problem as you.
It seems that there are few bugs (or mistakes) in the Windows installer from "Marco Bonifazi".

But as you said you can run Glade by copying the executable file ("glade-3.exe") to the "bin/" directory where you have installed Glade (but I think there is already the "glade-3.exe" file in the "bin/" directory, so you don't have to copy that file manually).

I have soluted this problem. I have tried other win32 installers (older versions) where there wasn't any problem with icons. I compared there installers with the problematic installer from "Marco Bonifazi" and the problem was that in the Marco's installer there was missing the file "index.theme" (probably some file with indexed icons in Glade) in the directory "share/icons/hicolor". So I have just copied that file to the specified folder and after that everything worked fine.

I have uploaded that file so you can download it directly:
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=0XJWQL1H

...or try to download and install the "3.6.1" version of Glade and copy that file from there:
http://dfn.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/gladewin32/Glade3-3.6.1.exe

All the best.
