need help on installing GTK2

[roms]

Hi,

First, I will present myself, I am Romain Bourdon (from France), the author of the WAMP5 package (http://www.en.wampserver.com) which has just reached one million dowloads. I am currently adding new functions to manage the PHP parameters in WAMP (should be included in the next version of wamp).

To manage advanced parameters (safe_mode, error managment...) I would like to use PHP GTK2 to make a simple interface.

So I've tried Gnope which is really great, good job you're doind here

I started to create apps, i'll be able o do what I want...

Now my problem is including gtk2 in my wamp package. I could directly include gnope in wamp but :

- the installer would be much bigger
- It would have to occurences of PHP5 which would be stupid

So I am trying to add GTK2 to the PHP5 already included in WAMP but I am having problems.

So here is my question : could someone tell me how to make a minimal windows install of GTK2 on PHP5, or give me a link to a good tutorial?

Thanks in advance and sorry for my english

Roman,


You need two things:
- the php extension php-gtk2.dll
- the gtk libraries with dependencies as pixbufloaders.

Gnope is Open Source, so you can get the sources from the download page. You'll get all the installer files and all the gtk files you need. Also look at the announcement forum for the latest php-gtk2.dll.
Btw, there is a Gtk2_PHPConfig package in PEAR that you could ship.

Thanks Cweiske,

I've installed the package and copied the necessary dll depencies from the gnope full installto the WAMP/php/ directory (php version 5.1.4).

Now php-gtk2 scripts work which is a big step. The only problem I have now is that whenever I call php as cli, when the script finishes (or the Gtk::main_quit() method is called), I get a windows bug report message. Did anyone ever get this problem?

The crash will be fixed in the php-gtk2 alpha
