If old GtkMozEmbed used to be supported on MS Windows than new GtkMozEmbed MUST support it too.
That's the problem, GtkMozEmbed was not officially supported, but there were a few unofficial versions around that had been hacked into a usable state. I don't think many of the patches ever made it into trunk though. <snip>
This is misunderstanding. No one is going to discourage GtkMozEmbed on MS Windows.
Well, timeless said "I hope to kill anything resembling such plans" which seems pretty clear to me.
BTW, if someone is implementing something on plain GTK it is kinda difficult to make it incompatible with MS Windows since GTK as you said is cross-platform. For this new GtkMozEmbed is more or less just to provide MSVC make files and build instructions for WIN32, I think.
Well, it depends. GTK itself is cross-platform, but it does allow access to some of the underlying platform specifics, so it's perfectly possible to make a non-cross-platform GTK application. AFAIK making GtkMozEmbed work under Win32 was not easy, because although on Linux Mozilla uses GTK, on Win32 it uses native Win32 APIs. -- Michael Hutchinson http://mjhutchinson.com _______________________________________________ dev-embedding mailing list dev-embedding@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-embedding
