Re: [Haskell-cafe] Deprecated gtk2hs functions

16 Aug 2010

      may i suggest that the description of the package, where it lists the
depreciated functions, give also a hint, how the function should be
replaced. i often hit the wall of depreciated functions when i try to
use a packaged not having been compiled for a while and i have to
replace the functions. then the searching starts... - if the information
were included in the package description (automatically produced with
haddock from a bit of text in the source code, written by somebody that
did the change and has the information at his fingertips), it would save
a lot of searching and failing upgrade experiences. gtk2hs is just a
point in case, but it applies generally.

any comments?

Has it been decided that button-specific events are going to be
deprecated in favor of their general widget equivalents, with
buttonActivated being an (IMO) awkward title for buttonClicked?

You can define signals, the constructor is exposed.
