libxfce4ui - widget sharing library
The libxfce4ui library is used to share commonly used Xfce widgets among the Xfce applications.
Required packages
Libxfce4ui depends on the following packages:
- GTK+ 3.18.0 or above
- GLib 2.42.0 or above
- Libxfce4util 4.12.0 or above
Debugging Support
Libxfce4ui currently supports four different levels of debugging support, which can be setup using the configure flag `–enable-debug' (check the output of `configure –help'):
`full' Use this if you want to debug libxfce4ui to locate a bug. The build will most probably be noticably slower. This is also recommended for people that want to develop Xfce applications.
`yes' This is the default for SVN snapshot builds. It adds all kinds of checks to the code, and is therefore likely to run slower. Use this if you want to develop for Xfce.
`minimum' This is the default for release builds, and presents the recommended behaviour.
`no' Disables all sanity checks. Don't use this unless you know exactly what you do.
