Book Review: The Official GNOME 2 Developer's Guide (OSNews)
OSNews reviews
The Official GNOME 2 Developer's Guide. "The book was
written around the time of Gnome 2.0-2.2 but was released recently in the
English language, and so newer material like the new GTK+ file selector or
Gstreamer are not discussed. Even back then though, Gnome was capable of
games, OpenGL views (via GtkGLArea), generic music and video, which are
also not discussed. Also, while there is a whole chapter on the auto*
development tools, there is not a mention of how to properly debug a GTK+
application using existing tools, or how to use Alleyoop and Valgrind to
trace memory leaks. And there are not any tips & tricks on how to
profile or optimize your application." (Found on GnomeDesktop)
