It deals with the following issues: - Tasking support; - Custom models for tree view widget; - Custom cell renderers for tree view widget; - Multi-columned derived model; - Extension derived model (to add columns to an existing model); - Abstract caching model for directory-like data; - Tree view and list view widgets for navigational browsing of abstract caching models; - File system navigation widgets with wildcard filtering; - Resource styles; - Capturing resources of a widget; - Embeddable images; - Some missing subprograms and bug fixes; - Measurement unit selection widget and dialogs; - Improved hue-luminance-saturation color model; - Simplified image buttons and buttons customizable by style properties; - Controlled Ada types for GTK+ strong and weak references; - Simplified means to create lists of strings. http://www.dmitry-kazakov.de/ada/gtkada_contributions.htm Changes to the version 2.0: - Gtk.Tree_Model.Columned_Store package was added to provide derived columned models; - Gtk.Tree_Model.Extension_Store package was added to provide derived models by adding new columns to the base model; - Gtk.Abstract_Browser package was added to provide abstract caching tree view models of directory-like hierarchies of items. It also provides specialized tree view widget for rendering directory tree structures and columned directory items.views; - Gtk.Directory_Browser package provides an implementation of caching tree view model interfacing with Ada.Directories and a MS-Explorer-like widget to work with; - Gtk.Persistent_Storage_Browser package provides an implementation of caching tree view for browsing persistent object storages; - Get_Column_No was added to Gtk.Missed for obtain the column number from Gtk_Tree_View_Column; - Get_Row_No was added to Gtk.Missed for obtain the row number from Gtk_Tree_Model; - Compare, Is_In, Is_Parent were added to.Gtk.Missed for comparisons of tree model's paths and iterators. The comparison is null-/Null_Iter-safe; - Get_Column was added to Gtk.Missed to deal with Gtk_Tree_View_Column parameters of event handlers; - Keyval_To_Unicode and Unicode_To_Keyval were added to Gtk.Missed; - Get_Application_Name was added to Gtk.Missed; - Gtk.Enums.String_Lists was added for matching wildcard patterns; - Set_Log_Trace was added to Gtk.Main.Router.GNAT_Stack for tracing GLib log messages; - Gtk.Recent_Manager package was added to interface GtkRecentManager; - Set_Object was added to GLib.Values.Handling for storing an object into a GValue. -- Regards, Dmitry A.
