FLTK

I'm surprised that there hasn't been much interest in porting good applications from other platforms to OS4 using FLTK. I've found a really nice spreadsheet here: http://nab.pcug.org.au/

It's called simply sprsht1.2.2. Complete source (Window and Linux binaries too) is included and it has a configurable GUI. The only dependency is FLTK. I sold my PegII about 18 months ago or I'd take a stab at porting this to OS4 using Massimiliano's FLTK library. Is anybody here willing to take this on? I've looked over the source code and I don't think it would take more than a few hours to have a working OS4 binary.

You can get OS4 FLTK here: http://www.soft3dev.net/pages/fltk.php

There are also pre-compiled OS4 binaries for all the FLTK examples.

i tried to use fltk years ago, the os4 was not so stable back then and i think it hasn't been updated since.

I tried to use FLTK once, and discovered that our version was too old. That was quite a few years ago, but our FLTK hasn't been updated since it was initially released, as SpotUP says.

Dunno what version sprsht needs, but I'd be surprised if it worked on our old one.

abalaban over at AmigWorld has updated FLTK. He has a slight problem though.

I have on my HD an updated FLTK port that adds:
- mousewheel support
- abiliy to access volumes and assigns when accessing '/'

The only problem preventing its release is that it seems I'm unable to compile it with a working JPEG support anymore. My test program is an updated flPhoto and when using this version I can't save (or rotate I don't remember) a JPEG without obtaining an error message (I forgot right now but I can provide it if required).

Here's the rest of the thread: http://amigaworld.net/modules/newbb/v ... p?topic_id=37254&forum=32

which problem?

It's a problem with libjpeg.

yes.. but which kind of problem?

Quote:ferrels was quoting a post by abalaban here: http://amigaworld.net/modules/newbb/v ... _id=37254&forum=32#697374

It might have been easier if he had put it in quote tags, though. But if you follow the link, the problem is discussed there.

Best regards,

@afxgroup

Unfortunately I didn't have time to look at it this week-end. I'll try to find some time this evening to quote the exact message.

@abalaban


Any word yet?

As stated on AmigaWorld, the error message is "Bogus virtual array access" (i.e. jpeg error JERR_BAD_VIRTUAL_ACCESS).

@abalaban

Great news !
Is it based on my unfinished FLTK 1.1.10 port ?

Great Alex!

@m3x

no not yet. It's still the 1.1.6 but I'll look at the 1.1.10 too... I just need to remember where I saved it when I changed harddrive

@abalaban

OK, the 1.1.10 archive is still available at the link I sent you, just in case you need it

@m3x

Okay, thank you. In case I can't find it on my backup I'll download it again.

Hello!
Is there any possibility to port FLTK 1.3.x to AmigaOS4.1?

@abalaban

Any news on a newer FLTK? Might allow the Dillo web browser to be ported
