You have to call the compiler with the GTK package flag.

Code: Select all

valac --pkg gtk+-2.0 is.gs

I've got everything working except my GUI. :? All I need is a button and a text entry field, the problem is I have no idea how to 1) pack the widgets so the text entry field is on top of the button 2) how to make, display text, and delete text in a text entry field.

Thanks in advance.

Two problems with that approach:

1. I'm using a full install.
2. I really really really do not want to reinstall, I'll loss a lot of personal and configuration data.

Xorg died?

So I installed Wine on my puppy (4.1.2) and wanted to run sim city 3000. After the installation I run it and get an error saying that OpenGL failed to initialize. After a little bit of googling this forum I figured out that OpenGL is included in xorg_xorg_dir_7.3 (something like that) which I instal...

Thanks! The "valac --pkg=gee-1.0 hello.gs" is what I needed. The IDE broke my puppy so I can't use it. :(

Thanks I'll take a look at it. But now when I try to compile my program I get this error message: test.gs:5.22-5.36: error: The name `Gee' does not exist in the context of `main' var my_list = new list of int My guess says that is caused by an error with Genie and Geelib. Any ideas on how to fix this?

This should be an easy question, how do I use a window I made with Glade in Genie?

What about square roots and exponents?

Unless you have a lot of experience with programming I would highly suggest you buy a book, they are much better than online tutorials. C++ is very confusing and has cryptic syntax makeing it very difficult to learn from an online tutorial.

No need to use a registry cleaner! Registrys full of crap are caused by programs not being compleatly uninstalled (at least that's the main reason). Puppys package manager controlls the install/uninstall of programs so when you remove a package everything is removed with it. Is there anything specif...

Yeah I'll look into Bash and GTK at some point, right now I'm just doing some prototypeing. As for the catagorizing the flash games, they would have to be user categorized so some kind of drag and drop to a box thing? Or should I use tags? I could have a file explorer icon thing that displayed the f...
