[Pan-devel] update to the grouplist code

[K. Haley]

I've just completed changing Pans group lisr from the long depracated 
GtkCList to a GtkTreeView.  This is one of the updates needed to really 
take advantage of the eventual DB backend.  There should also be a minor 
decrease in memory usage although the only people to notice it woulb be 
those that regularly look at a large group list.

So far I have only noticed one problem.  When I switch from my small 
list of subscribed groups to all 43000 groups myst system slows to a 
crawl for about 20 sec., after that it returns to normal.  I have 
determined that this occurs during some sort of validation that the 
treeview is doing.  There is a bugzilla report 
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=116642 on a similar issue 
involving rows with a lot of cells.  The proposed fix for that bug might 
help here as well.  This is on windowsXP gtk 2.4.3, I don't know if 
linux users will have this problem or not so I'm going posting the 
update for testing.

The file contains a new grouplist.c, group-store.[ch], group-store.gob, 
and a patch for Makefile.am & base/group.[ch].  You will need to run 
automake & configure to add the new files to the build.
