Introduction

This newsletter mainly covers the the #gnuenterprise IRC channel, with
occasional coverage of the three main mailing lists (gnue-announce, gnue and
gnue-dev) for the GNU Enterprise (http://www.gnuenterprise.org) project.

1. Interim bug-fix release of GNUe Forms

18 Jul  Archive Link: "[IRC] 18 Jul 2006"

Summary By Peter Sullivan

Topics: Forms

People: Johannes Vetter, Bajusz Tam?s

Johannes Vetter (johannesV) had "fixed a bug in the wx26-uidriver of the
released version" of GNUe Forms, and released the source-code version of this
as an 'interim' 0.5.14a release. Bajusz Tam?s (btami) packaged this up as a
setup.exe release for Microsoft Windows, and made it available for download,
noting that it "doesn't contains wx26" . Normally, the Microsoft Windows
setup.exe releases would contain as many of the dependencies that it legally
could. But wx version 2.6 had not been included in the last setup.exe release.
GNUe Forms with wx 2.6 was a significant improvement on using it with wx 2.4.
But at the time of the last release, GNUe Designer had not been "wx26 ready" .
So the Microsoft Windows setup.exe version of that release had remained on wx
version 2.4. This was still the case with this new interim 0.5.14a release. But
if people wanted, they could manually configure GNUe to use wx 2.6 with Forms
and wx 2.4 with Designer.

2. New release of GNUe Forms still some way off

People: Bajusz Tam?s, Reinhard M?ller, Johannes Vetter

Further to Issue #122, Section #5  (29 Jun : Displaying grids in GNUe Forms
with wx 2.6) , Bajusz Tam?s (btami) felt that "the new box layout is cool, what
do you want to be enhance before new release?" Reinhard M?ller (reinhard) said
that Johannes Vetter (johannesV) "still sees some stability problems - and he
is currently working on the new grid widget - and we are cleaning up the
general GF* code, which still takes some time" .
