GTK 3 Widget Set Status?

(1/1)

sysrpl:
Would someone be so kind to tell me if the GTK 3 widget set is working yet? Does the IDE work when built using GTK 3 and can I write most normal desktop applications using GTK 3 right now when using the a most recent trunk revision? What's not working in a general sense?

I thought I'd ask you guys rather than clone Lazarus from git, build it, and hunt for problems.

zeljko:
It's uncomplete, mostly missing winapi implementations eg caret so synedit is unuseable but text is rendered ok, setCursor is missing, file dialogs ... in one word gtk3 IDE is unuseable yet.

sysrpl:
I managed to get the IDE to open when built using GTK 3, but most stuff beyond that was broken.


In short, it's in a pre-alpha state and doesn't work.

JuhaManninen:
There is another thread about GTK3 :
https://forum.lazarus.freepascal.org/index.php/topic,64493

AFAIK abou.almontacir promised to maintain LCL-GTK3 at some point. I don't know what the status is there.
