Re: [gtkmm] porting projects from gtkmm-1.2 to gtkmm2

[Leandro Fanzone <leandro hasar com>]

My own experience is that I almost had to rewrite everything from 
scratch. My application was heavy reliant on Gtk::CList which doesn't 
exist anymore, for example. To mimic all the things I had done in CList 
with TreeView was a headache after another. Also all the fonts 
management changed radically. I began to port module by module, until I 
realized that I should better begin from scratch, reusing some of my old 
code here and there, but thinking on the new platform from ground zero.
Well, that's my case, I think in other cases it could be far more 
easier, naturally.
