Development

It depends what kind of people we are trying to recruit, and what tasks we need done. I think we need help with infrastructure more than anything. We need a PHP developer to help us jump to Drupal 8 (or whatever PHP CMS we pick). Catchafire can get us free help with the strategic/preliminary work [1][2][3][4], but we will need someone to manage and implement the change over. ...

Use a corporate recruitment tool. Haiku is almost ready for Beta. That means it's time to start thinking about professional support staff. Which we don't have the money to pay for. I neglected to say that the three corporate recruitment tools that I gave as examples (Qandidate, TalentSquare and RecruiterBox) are free to use for the basic usage. Qandidate and TalentSquare only ask for a commission when posting jobs to non-free job search websites (plus background checks and other things we ...

It looks like SetLowcolor isn't set correctly for column label in clicked state.

One of the reasons why the build process consists of two phases (configure and jam) is because jam can't do certain things like executing a command (e.g. gcc --version) and processing its output. Even if it could, there are certain checks -- like this -- we really don't want to do in order to avoid slowing the build warm-up down.

There are no default sound files included in the distribution. Maybe some enterprising sound guy - and I'm sure we have many amongst our ranks - could whip one up.

No reply from original poster in 5+ years, not enough info to do anything useful. Closing.

Fabrice Bellard's BPG format seems to be gaining some leverage, and is touted to replace JPEG. Might be a good idea to write a translator for it.

It's still there, the access key is SHIFT. Though, stacking through S&T is probably more convenient.

Pe is not part of Haiku. It's bugtracker is at ​https://github.com/olta/pe

Right click in the programmer's editor (Pe) produces two option, neither of which is useful.

Move apparently does nothing, while Copy actually duplicates the tagged line.

I suggest the menu and functionality in StyleEdit would be more useful, maybe the code could be re-used here.

If memory serves me correctly there was an "undocumented feature" in the BeOS that allowed dragging the yellow tab across so that multiple windows could easily be accessed. I think the sequence was Ctrl-leftclick-drag or something similar.

It would be handy.

Built the PPC cross-compiler and attempted to build for this platform. Assuming jam -q @nightly-anyboot is a valid command (documentation lags the actual code severely) then there's something wrong.

The compiler complains it can't find <stdarg.h> and <stddef.h> early in the build, causing failures. This *appears* to be a problem with the configure script.

Configured with:

../haiku/configure --cross-tools-prefix cross-tools-ppc/bin/powerpc-apple-haiku- --use-gcc-pipe -j2

which seems correct so maybe the cross-compiler build has faults, but that would still be a configure script error.

Just built a pure x86 cross-compiler today and - for shits and giggles - decided to try building the x86 version of Haiku.

It almost worked. The installer tells me there's an error of "No Error" when clicking install. Booting from the USB stick and running it from there I got as far as a desktop, but it had no logo and the Tracker dropboxes weren't available so I couldn't run any of the standard programs or demos.

Since this is my first non-hybrid build I'm unsure whether this is all normal at the current stage of development, or whether it's wrong.

Good morning, Just an FYI that I posted this question to the Mesa ML this morning: Pretty much software rast is the old non-gallium renderer. llvmpipe is the llvm enhanced gallium renderer. (software pipe) ...
