HIG Frames with GTK+

It’s painful to follow the GNOME Human Interface Guidelines in plain GTK+ so I wrote some functions to make this task easier. I wrote this code one year ago and I’m suprised we don’t have such API in the current GTK+ version.

The Launchpad branch is https://code.launchpad.net/gtk-frame-hig. libsexy is maybe the right container for that code.

PS: libmodbus 1.2.3 is out!



libmodbus 1.2.2 is out!

libmodbus is an old project but I never wrote a post about it, 2008 is the right year!

I recently released 2 new versions to include some bug fixes :

libmodbus 1.2.2 (2007-11-12)
- Fix #161989 (Konstantinos Togias)
Serial device paths more than 10 chars long (eg. /dev/ttyUSB0) don’t
fit to modbus_param_t -> device char[11] var.
- Structure is also bit better ‘packed’ to conserve memory (see the
trunk for a real enhancement).

libmodbus 1.2.1 (2007-11-02)
- Fix #159443 (Stefan Bisanz)
Index of incoming data in force multiple coils function
- Deleted useless code in check_crc16()
- Untabify source code
- Changed author’s email (Stéphane Raimbault)

The development continues (slowly) in trunk to include the slave component of the protocol.
