On Ubuntu Linux, I can draw a simple Hello World interface (and a button on it to close the window) with Glade and save the file. Now how do I use GtkD and D to load that interface? Anyone got a super simple tutorial for that?

I think the start of this probably looks like the following, but I'm not certain:

import gtk;
import gobject.Type;
import std.stdio;
import std.c.process;

int main (string[] args)
{
	Main.init(args);
	Builder b = new Builder();
	b.addFromFile("test1.glade");
	Window w = cast(Window)b.getObject("window1");
	w.showAll();
	Main.run();
	return 0;
}

...so, this assumed that I had a test1.glade file, and that I had this line inside it:

<object class="GtkApplicationWindow" id="window1">

So now I need to figure out how to get GtkD installed on Ubuntu Linux 14.04.

Hi Mike,

There's a Glade example in the demos/builder directory...

I'm having trouble installing GtkD on Ubuntu Linux 14.04. I did the apt steps from here:

http://d-apt.sourceforge.net/

$ sudo su
# wget http://master.dl.sourceforge.net/project/d-apt/files/d-apt.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/d-apt.list
# apt-get update && apt-get -y --allow-unauthenticated install --reinstall d-apt-keyring && apt-get update
# apt-get install libgtkd3-dev libgtkd3-doc

I then run the following and it fails:

# dmd test1.d
test1.d(1): Error: module gtk is in file 'gtk.d' which cannot be read
import path[0] = /usr/include/dmd/phobos
import path[1] = /usr/include/dmd/druntime/import

It looks last keep you're missing an import path (-Ipath_to_source). Check out http://dlang.org/dmd-linux.html#switches

I tried this just now:

# dmd test1.d -I/usr/include/dmd/gtkd3/gtkc
/usr/include/dmd/gtkd3/gtkc/gtk.d(28): Error: module gtktypes is in file 'gtkc/gtktypes.d' which cannot be read
import path[0] = /usr/include/dmd/gtkd3/gtkc
import path[1] = /usr/include/dmd/phobos
import path[2] = /usr/include/dmd/druntime/import

It's saying that it can't read gtkc/gtktypes.d, but there is a file in path /usr/include/dmd/gtkd3/gtkc/gtktypes.d

try # dmd test1.d -I/usr/include/dmd/gtkd3

I'm using GtkD on Windows so there is a .../src directory with all the source files in.

I also tried without the "-L-ldl" and got the same result. I then tried this:

# rdmd -I/usr/include/dmd/gtkd3 -L-ldl test1.d

The undefined references mean you haven't provided a linker path to the GtkD libs.
Have you built the GtkD libraries?

On <http://d-apt.sourceforge.net/> there is the "pkg-config" section:

---
pkg-config:
    Every dev package contains "pkg-config" (shared and static) configuration files for the specific library.
    i.e. link GtkD2 applications against "libgtkd2.so" and "libphobos2.so" shared libraries:
    $ dmd `pkg-config --cflags --libs gtkd2` my_gtkd2_app.d
    or link GtkD2 applications against "libgtkd2.a" and "libphobos2.a" static libraries:
    $ dmd `pkg-config --cflags --libs gtkd2-static` my_gtkd2_app.d
---
