A reversable present for harshy

Version 0.1.2 of Coaster is here. Here is what I have added/fixed in this release: Added Undo/Redo for adding, removing, and renaming. Added the use of icon themes and icon caching. Removed dependency on libgnomeuimm and libgnomecanvasmm.

Laundry night

That’s right, last night was laundry night, but really, for Coaster, it was all weekend. I cleaned up the icon changing stuff. I now have a program-wide Gtk::IconTheme and Gnome::UI::ThumbnailFactory which store Gdk::Pixbuf refptrs into a std::map for quick lookup. It actually works pretty slick. I’ll get it uploaded as soon as harshy gets our arch repo (which I screwed up) fixed. Hopefully that’ll be within the next few days.

Burning Coasters

Coaster development has started moving lately. harshy has just updated the site with screenshots of the GUI and how to download all the parts of Coaster (that don’t really do much right now). Lately, my work has been on getting icon themes to work with the GUI of Coaster. It works, but it’s still too slow for my tastes. For the past few days, I’ve been planning out a mechanism that caches icon themes in a std::map for quick lookup based on mime-type.
