Hi all,
Could someone clue me in as to how the src/interface.c file is generated?
AFAIK it is generated by Glade 2.x; but I'd think it's mentioned in the HACKING file, isn't it?
It is ;) http://geany.org/manual/hacking.html#glade
Since its autogenerated, wouldn't it be a good idea to remove it from the repo? Obviously, it should be shipped in the source code tarball, but it is reasonable to expect that anyone working from SVN have whatever tool is required to generate that file.
Since Glade 2.x doesn't really exist anymore (its out-of-date and couldn't even be compiled with recent GTK version [1]), I don't think it is reasonable to think that every possible contributor have it. So I think keeping it in the repository is a good thing.
I agree for the same reasons.
Cheers, Frank
