GObject Introspection has landed in Grilo!

If you’re using Grilo from git, last patches enabled improved GObject Introspection so you can start using Python with PyGObject to develop your applications. A Python clone of the grilo-test-ui is provided, and should give you an idea of what can be done with these new bindings: basically enjoy all the power in Grilo without [...]

Watch a product in (GNOME’s) Bugzilla

Another quick one: if you want to watch/follow a product in (GNOME’s) bugzilla, it is explained here. To watch an entire product, lookup the product in this page. This will show the default assignee (often productname-maint@gnome.bugs). Then add it your your watched users list. An easy one, but as it took me a while to [...]

Guadec Hispana 7: el principio

Aunque se haya acabado ya la 7ª Guadec-Hispana, para mí siempre será el principio: la primera vez que aporté algo (por humilde que haya sido) a una conferencia de Software Libre. Fue una experiencia muy agradable, a pesar de que hablar delante de tanto hacker produzca cierta intimidación . Afortunadamente, la (estupenda) cena del día [...]

JaMp talk at GUADEC-ES

I’ve just finished writing the slides for the JaMp‘s talk at the GUADEC-ES Maybe it’s still a bit longer than it should, but hey! So, if you want to know those issues we faced with JaMp (GObject signals, D-Bus -from both C and Python sides-, and some notes about the Maemo port) come visit us [...]

Another (general) status report

Some quick notes (the list of things which would deserve a full blog entry for themselves just keeps growing…) My manager (I don’t like how “boss” sounds) retired last week. Although he visited us a couple of days more to spend some time with us, things will be, at least, different. We’ll surely miss him. [...]

Jamp is going to GUADEC-ES!

The application we’ve been developing at the Desktop & Mobile module in the Master has been accepted for a talk in the GUADEC-ES! More info on that soon, but you can start by checking the program. Or even better: why don’t you register and visit us?

And now, introducing maevies

Back in October, a friend and I started a project targeting Maemo. We had been thinking about programming for maemo for a lot of time (but for Diablo devices), and Fremantle‘s new UI, so appealing, almost got us buying a N900 (we ended up buying a HTC Tattoo, but that’s another story). At that moment, [...]

Discovering GObject signals

My first idea about this entry was to write down some things I learnt about GObject signals, while comparing them to what I feel is a close relative: C# events. However, after the first draft I think it’s better to focus on GObject now, and leave the comparison for another day. Credit should go to [...]

Introducing Jamp: a Jamendo client.

This last weekend we had two very interesting sessions in the Destkop and Mobile development module. On Friday,  it was an introduction to Python, followed by a PyGTK app. While the app was very simple, it covered the basics: using containers to add widgets, handling signals, setting callback functions. I liked it so much that [...]

The importance of a good IDE: which one to choose (and why)?

A few months ago, when I was trying to start developing for maemo, I discovered a project called ESbox. ESbox is “an Eclipse Ganymede-based product that helps programmers to develop applications for Maemo platform using Scratchbox Apophis”. It launches scratchbox transparently, includes wizards for different types of apps, lets you debug step by step and [...]
