GTK+ development with SunStudio 12
Greetings,
I'm currently in the process of learning GTK+ programming. For this task I wanted to use SunStudio 12 but I found the configuration of the projects for GTK+ development very annoying (adding many include directories and libraries for every configuration).
Therefore I developed a small tool using python which extracts the necessary information from the output of pkg-config and adds it to the configuration of the SunStudio project.
If someone is interested in using this tool he can find it here: http://home.arcor.de/jsiebert/
Feedback is very welcome! Hope you enjoy using the tool!
Best regards,
Jens Siebert

Ok, your tool doesn't work for me. :(
Tried it "as is" on my Gentoo Linux system, and it looked like the required xml library isn't installed:
[code]
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./ss12-gtk-project.py_200706241644", line 6, in ?
from lxml import etree as ElementTree
ImportError: No module named lxml
[/code]
So, as there was a package called "lxml" available, installed that and tried again. Still no luck:
[code]
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./ss12-gtk-project.py_200706241644", line 7, in ?
from xml.etree.ElementTree import Element
ImportError: No module named etree.ElementTree
[/code]
Looking at http://effbot.org/zone/element-index.htm, it gave some hints, so modified the import declaration at the top of your script to:
[code]
import os
import sys
import getopt
from lxml.etree import Element, ElementTree
[/code]
This seemed to let the script run:
[code]
$ ./ss12-gtk-project.py
Usage: ss12-gtk-project.py -d <SS12-project-directory> -p <project-name> -P <package>
$
[/code]
But after that, I can't get it to recognise the project directory or arguments in a useful way:
[code]
$ ./ss12-gtk-project.py -d /home/jc/SunStudioProjects -p flame-edit -P glib-2.0
Error: Given project-dir or project-name doesn't exist!

D'oh! Ok, fixed that...
I've uploaded a new version of the script. Could you please test this version with your installation?

Could you check if there is a file named "configurations.xml" in the nbproject sub-directory of the project directory (e.g. /home/jc/SunStudioProjects/flame-edit/nbproject/configurations.xml)?
I suspect that is has been renamed to "configurations.bak" in a previous attempt to run the script.
Just rename configurations.bak to configurations.xml...
Thanks for your feedback and suggestions!
Best regards,
Jens
