2004 Fashion Show - GTK+ and GNOME APIs, FedericoMenaQuintero
The GTK+ and GNOME APIs have grown big over time with the addition of new widgets, desktop-wide concepts, and improved versions of their old counterparts. Applications which predate these new features are often not modified to use them, so they may be missing important things which are part of "well-behaved" applications. Some of these features include aids for keyboard navigation, performance improvements, multiscreen support, theme compliance, robustness for components, and authentication. In this talk I will explain what these features are, and how they should be used to make applications Do The Right Thing.
