Could you tell me how could I begin making some little developing on
gthumb?
Install eclipse? use geany?
is there anything written somewhere on the web?
I just use vim, edit the source code, and re-compile. You can use your
favorite editor - vim, emacs, geany, whatever.
Much of the UI is defined in glade files in data/glade. Use glade-2 or
glade-3 to edit these graphically. You can also edit the glade files
with a text editor, for simple changes (to rename the scale dialog, for
example).
When you are happy with your changes, you just run "git diff > my.patch"
to save the changes to a patch file.
The gtk/gnome functions are documented here:
http://library.gnome.org/devel/references
For example, I often refer to the gfile documentation:
http://library.gnome.org/devel/gio/unstable/GFile.html
I like to run "cppcheck" every now and then:
cppcheck -a -q -s --unused-functions src libgthumb
This checks the source code for stupid errors. It generates some false
warnings, however.
This should get you started!
