It's just to complicated for this old fella
I tested Rods updated Win32bit file and it didn't work
I'm not going well this morning

See here Graechan.

Look at screenshots especially the one showing the docked error console.

It works.
The environment SamJ created makes it VERY easy to compile plugins for GIMP.
The version 4 environment is for both 32 and 64 bit compiles and includes GIT and autogen. I don't have a 64 bit system so i can not compile 64 bit.

INSTRUCTIONS-
If you open the msys bat file (which opens a DOS window) and type cd /env this will change the directory to your working environment. Now just type make after you edit the Makefile included. The rest is done by the compilers.

Then after compile the exe will be located in the C:\petit-msys-mingw-gimp28 directory. Just throw it in your plug-ins folder and test it.

Easy Peasy.

If you have any compile errors it usually means the Makefile has the wrong directory for the proper compilers. You will need to edit that line if that is the case.

Thanks Rod I'll try again tomorrow, just for practice and as a confidence builder

You guys are right. If the error console is active, the message is displayed there. I've updated the plug-in to force the message to the screen in all cases.

Code: Select all

static void
text_font (GimpDrawable *drawable)
{
  if (tfvals.font != 0) {
    gimp_text_layer_set_font (drawable->drawable_id, tfvals.font);
    gimp_context_set_font (tfvals.font);
    gimp_message_set_handler (0); 
    g_message("Active Font Changed To: %s\n",
               tfvals.font );
  }
}

I've added Rod's change to the menu location, as well.
The plug-in will now appear under: Filters/Text/Text font select..

Also, I've started adding version numbers to this plug-in to keep in sync with the updates.

See 1st post in this thread for the latest version.

Thank You for the update, can't wait for the Win compiles to test, I've enjoyed the project and will test the plugin in a script asap :jumpclap

I've enjoyed this project, as well. Getting a chance to play with a C plug-in has been fun.

You need to get your Windows development environment working, Graechan. :cool

As soon as I get a windows compile I will update the thread to V1.2

Rod · **Joined:** May 16, 2010 **Posts:** 14709 **Location:** USA

Windows 32 bit V-1.2

Graechan · **Posted:** Wed Feb 05, 2014 6:28 pm **(#40)**

text-font-V1.2 has been posted, Note! change in Menu location to Filters/Text also this version makes the script Font Selector redundant so remember to please delete script
compiles for Win64bit and Linux32bit still needed so please respond if you can assist

Graechan place the text-font.c file in the c:/petit-msys-mingw-gimp28 directory

change the Makefile to read

Open the msys terminal (bat exe file) and type cd /env and then hit enter
Type make and hit enter. The plugin will be in the same directory as the c src file. Or should be.

Place it in the plugin folder and test. Upload - DONE! :bigthup

mingw is actually the base/c directory.

Code: Select all

c:/petit-msys-mingw-gimp28 /env
c:/petit-msys-mingw-gimp28/base/c /mingw

Sorry Rod that didn't work for me

Graechan · **Posted:** Thu Feb 06, 2014 12:34 am **(#47)**

But the 64bit environment files did :jumpclap

I'm a happy old Fella, perseverance won out

Windows 64bit file now available, see initial post

Nice job, Graechan.

I've setup my Fedora 20 system to compile Linux 32bit plug-ins, as well. I tested it and it runs just fine on my 64bit system, so it should work on other Linux distributions, both 64bit & 32bit, unless the Linux Distribution is just too old and outdated. Removed in favor of Rich2005's version.

Ok. Now that Graechan has updated the first post in this thread, I've deleted all the old attachments.

If I had not stopped to update my AntiX installation I would have sneaked in before you

FWIW this is the v1.2 compiled in a 32 bit linux

Added to the 1st post in this thread

You were

Rich.

Considering you compiled in a native 32bit environment, I think we should just go with your version. Mine is a little larger @ 18.3kb

Btw - I tested your 32bit version on my 64bit system and it runs fine. :bigthup
