All this would be a lot simpler if the common GUI
toolkits would provide
a call that would allow one to create a raw X window that wil be
connected to their internals and that gets its raw X events delivered
to a user specified callback. From there on, the toolkit or library used
by the plugin takes over. That's really all that's needed.
i've been talking about this a lot on the GMPI lists as
well. yes, thats pretty much exactly what is needed. how can it be so
hard for these people to understand that they cannot always control
or own the event loop?
ps. fons -
even if its not ready for use as a JACK client, i'd really
like to get a look at your SMPTE generating code. ardour really needs
it badly - its become more and more clear that we can't support MTC
master mode without kernel patches.
If you just need the generator, I can probably concoct something readable
somewhere this weekend. I'm currently in the process of moving from SL 8.2
to SL 9.0, not everything works yet, and my system is in a pretty chaotic
state :-)
the generator is all i need at this point.
