07:02:08 <nijm> Hi all. I'm having some trouble creating some libraries on windows with the install.sh script. I get the following error: Creating library file: .libs/libgmp.dll.a
07:02:08 <nijm> .libs/libgmp.la-1.o:out_str.c:(.text+0x2c1f): undefined reference to `__mingw_vfprintf'
07:03:10 <nijm> Anybody think they might know what's going on?
07:13:20 <jean> I'd say a missing library
07:14:55 <jean> or a linker bug
07:20:02 <nijm> I've set LIBRARY_PATH in custom.sh to /c/MinGW/lib, i'll see if that helps
07:27:27 <nijm> That hasn't helped

08:34:10 <warlord> nijm: what version of msys/mingw do you have installed?
08:40:51 <nijm> @warlord: msys 1.0
08:40:51 <gncbot> nijm: Error: "warlord:" is not a valid command.
08:41:25 <warlord> 1.0.what?
08:43:15 <nijm> warlord: msys 1.0.11 and MinGW 3.4.2
08:45:48 <warlord> oh really? The defaults.sh file seems to imply something differnt.
08:46:47 <warlord> msysDTK-1.0.1.exe, binutils-2.19, gcc-3.4.5, mingwrt-3.15.1, w32api-3.13, mingw32-make-3.81, and mingw-utils-0.3
08:48:42 <nijm> You mean the defaults file installs those versions?
08:52:41 <warlord> Yes
08:53:46 <Jimraehl> Most of the time that I see peope deviate from the default locations in http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Windows automated build, they get into trouble.
08:54:49 <Jimraehl> And the default versions.
08:55:05 <Jimraehl> Except MSYS 1.0.11 works fine for me.
08:55:47 <warlord> nijm: Delete everything, remove custom.sh, and try again/
08:56:48 <Jimraehl> I agree. I might also mention that I use the O drive, but everything else as in defaults.sh
09:00:43 <warlord> ok
09:03:46 <warlord> anyways, bedtime for me.

15:27:27 <jwmsse> Hello. I have a palm Centro and would like to know how to sync it with GNUCash. Does anyone know if this is doable? My provider if Sprint. Dataviz handles Excel files which is as close as I could get - I think?
15:45:01 *** jean has joined #gnucash
15:51:46 <jwmsse> Hello Jean.
15:52:34 <jwmsse> I just sent an email to the FreeCoins application developer at Sourceforge. Are you familiar with FreeCoins?
15:53:41 <jean> no, what is that?
15:54:36 <jwmsse> it is similar to gnucash and is supposed to work with Palm OS devices.
15:54:50 * jean reading freecoins.sf.net
15:55:10 <jean> I see
15:56:46 <jwmsse> at this point, I am just wanting to make sure that if I install it on my pda, that it won't crash the whole thing. I think the only way to do this is to contact the develpers via email.
15:57:46 <jean> seems reasonable
15:58:53 <jwmsse> are you a PalmOS user? or just gnucash in this case
16:00:00 <jean> no palm around there, and I don't use gnucash either
16:00:26 <jwmsse> may I ask why you're on this irc channel?
16:01:12 <jean> because I need to get an answer from gnucash developers about a bug they filed against libgoffice
16:01:38 <jean> but today is probably not very favorable because if the week-end ;)
16:03:49 <jean> s/if/of/
16:04:12 <jwmsse> i see. well best of luck with that.
16:04:20 *** hvx_ has quit IRC
16:05:23 <jean> the issue is that the bug needs to be fixed very quickly because API will be frozen for a while after goffice-0.8 release within a few weeks (may be even earlier)
16:06:11 *** MechtiIde has quit IRC
16:07:21 <jwmsse> Do you mean to say that your access to the API will be discontinued temporarily?
16:08:11 <jean> no, of course, but things must be ABI and API compatible during all goffice-0.8 life
16:09:06 <jean> breakages needs to go to next branch which means at least two years, probably, given recent history
16:10:13 <jwmsse> well, the work week starts tomorrow. Hope you make some progress with it. I am signing off now.
16:10:32 <jean> bye

16:15:16 <warlord> jean: who filed the bug report? Have you tried asking via email?
16:20:47 <jean> hi warlord, Adam Buchbinder filed #580545
16:21:32 <jean> this bug blocks gnucash #359224
16:21:47 <warlord> * looking *
16:21:54 <jean> thanks

16:25:29 <warlord> Unfortunately I'm not familiar enough with that code to answer.. Basically, what we want is for Pie, Bar, etc graphs/charts to be able to know "which item" the user clicked on.
16:26:14 <jean> I see
16:26:16 <warlord> So lets say there are 12 items in the pie chart, if the user clicked on item #5 then we'd need an event with that info. Not just for Pie charts, but also for Bar charts.
16:26:18 *** shade304 has joined #gnucash
16:27:05 <jean> as far as I know, gnucash generates an image so the event must be generated on the gnucash side
16:27:29 <jean> what I can provide is a method which tells which data is at point (x,y)
16:27:59 <warlord> This would be a new method, right?
16:28:12 <jean> yes
16:28:28 <jean> I need something like that for pies in gnumeric
16:28:34 <warlord> You do know that /adding/ new methods does not break API/ABI forward-compatibility.
16:28:50 <warlord> (only changing or removing methods breaks it)
16:28:56 <jean> it does because I need to change a class
16:29:06 <jean> so the class size will change
16:29:34 <jean> it does not break API, just ABI
16:30:41 <warlord> Oh, sorry, changing a class method, not adding a standalone function. Gotcha/.
16:31:08 <jean> ;)
16:31:40 <warlord> I honestly don't know the code well enough to know if that's a sufficient API. I'm not sure how to even get the x,y coordinate of a click.
16:31:50 <warlord> (but like I said, I'm not familiar with that code)
16:32:00 <jean> GdkEvent has x and y
16:32:12 <jean> GdkEventButton btw
16:33:27 <warlord> And GdkEvent works with Gtk-Win32 and Gtk-Quartz?
16:33:29 <jean> on the gnumeric side, the idea is to display a tip when the mose moves over the chart. For pies it will probably be "label: value (value as %)"
16:33:42 <jean> yes, they work
16:34:07 <warlord> Cool. (I don't program at that level -- I'm a higher-level guy) ;)
16:34:35 <jean> needed too ;)
16:35:43 <jean> I think I'll add the method before 0.8.0 even if not fully implemented for the various plots so that it will be possible to do that during 0.8 life
16:36:33 <warlord> okay.
16:42:53 <warlord> I'm sorry I can't really answer your question. Hopefully someone with more direct knowledge will pipe up.
16:43:12 <warlord> I'll also forward your message to gnucash-devel (or you can do that if you prefer).
16:52:16 <jean> Not needed, I now know what it is for, I'll send a message when things are implemented at least for pies
16:53:52 <warlord> Okay.
16:55:01 <jean> I'll probably need to give some tips about how the new function can be used.
16:59:37 <warlord> That would be nice. :)
