Deprecated gtk2hs functions

I recently started playing around with gtk2hs. I noticed that `onClicked`, `afterClicked`, etc. functions have been deprecated, presumably in favor of the `on` and `after` functions in the Glib signals module, but I couldn't find a collection of the appropriate signals to replace the functionality. Am I simply being blind? -- Alex R

You mean something like buttonPressEvent [1]?

...

on button buttonPressEvent

You can define signals, the constructor is exposed. [1] http://www.haskell.org/gtk2hs/docs/current/Graphics-UI-Gtk-Abstract-Widget.h... On Fri, Jul 16, 2010 at 11:36 AM, Alex Rozenshteyn wrote:

More like buttonActivated [1]. 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?

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? andrew On Fri, 2010-07-16 at 17:44 -0400, Alex Rozenshteyn wrote:

I think that's a wonderful idea. {pe'i le sibdo ku xmagu} (pardon me if my lojban is horrible; I'm practicing). On Mon, Aug 16, 2010 at 8:19 AM, Andrew U. Frank < frank22@geoinfo.tuwien.ac.at> wrote:
