#gobject — Public Fediverse posts

Nothing to see here, just a MacBook Neo and a GNOME OS laptop talking to each other via the #p2panda #GObject bindings for #Go . They even found each other via mDNS! (Needed a 5 line patch to the Rust build config, but that's it - everything just kind of works!)

Let me share some updates about peel 😀

As a reminder, #peel is a project that implements modern :cpp_language: bindings for #GObject libraries, most notably the #GTK stack, and now also #GStreamer.

Sebastian @slomo has been tirelessly working (and me, helping and reviewing and merging his work) on improving the GStreamer+peel experience, resulting in many improvements all over peel, and also in GStreamer, GLib, and other components of the stack.

First a bit of context for the GLib project, which is comprised of three main parts: GLib, GObject and GIO. #GLib contains things you'd generally get from a standard library, #GObject defines the OOP semantics (methods/properties/signals, inheritance, etc), and #GIO provides reasonably high-level APIs for everything from sockets and files to D-Bus and Gio.DesktopAppInfo.

Well, @bugaevc runs very quickly through some very sophisticated implementation details. It probably took months to get right what he references in some seconds…

Like the way @bugaevc starts with presenting GTK C boilerplate for setting a property. It really *IS* a reason for new developers not to use #GTK at all.

I have not blogged or talked about the follow-up work to my "GType Next" blog post that I've been doing in my spare time, mainly because it is happening *in my spare time*, and I don't want to give false impressions to people; the other reason is that the time consuming bit is not writing a bunch of code, but it's planning ahead, because the goal is to avoid breaking stuff at all costs…

@shriramk meanwhile C developers: What's the problem? ;)
