Gtk+ natively on Mac OS X

As announced on yesterdays Gtk+ meeting we have been working on a port of Gtk+ to Mac OS X. The reason we haven’t announced it earlier is that we wanted to be sure we’ll pull it off before announcing it publically. Anders has been working on this since August and have come a long way in native Gtk+ on Mac OS X.

This one was made for Kris showing the GtkTreeView being rendered without X11.

We have now come to a point where we feel confident that it’s going to happen all the way. We are currently working on finishing crucial parts absolutely essential to make it easier for others to test it. After that we will focus on cleaning it up, ease and document the build process, draw up a roadmap and todo list to help anyone who wants to join in on the fun to do so.

Yesterday after the meeting Mitch got Gimp started to be able to grab the first screenshot of Gimp running natively on Mac OS X.

Read about it in his blog.

Finally, in relation to Hubert’s blog post, I’d like to apologize for any hurt feelings. That was never our intention.
