[Glade-devel] glade & emacs



No, glade doesn't has a MI.

Once we have glade installable as a library, you should be able to link
to it dynamically and just use its public API (yet to be defined,
unfortunatelly).

I'm not very excited about supporting a MI on glade, specially if we get
the glade-as-a-library approach to work.

Do you see any problem with this approach?  That's what we want to use
to integrate with anjuta, and I hope that it will work out to be enough
for emacs.

Cheers,

I've recently become a developer for Emacs and put a lisp=20
package (gdb-ui.el) into the CVS repository. This package=20
allows Emacs to act a graphical user interface to GDB. More=20
generally, I'm interested in improving Emacs as an IDE. Now=20
that Emacs can be built with GTK, I would like to try to=20
integrate Glade into its operation. My initial ideas are=20
quite basic: I would write a set of lisp commands for Emacs=20
that could start Glade, load new projects and access the=20
source code for editing and compiling. It is easy to create a=20
subprocess in Emacs to start Glade but communication between=20
processes is a bit more difficult. Unfortunately, I know very=20
little about GTK but I can see that features like drag and=20
drop require communication (signals?) between different GTK=20
applications. Ideally I would like to access this=20
communication with the Emacs lisp commands that I would=20
write. GDB developers have recently developed an interface=20
called GDB/MI where MI stands for machine interface. It was=20
written to allow communication with GUI front-ends.=20
=20
Does Glade have something similar?
