Under Windows, an OLE interface I think is the right thing -- not something I can do, but maybe somebody more familiar with Windows. For Unix (Gnome), Bonobo used to be the thing for embedding, but it is apparently dead now. The IPC functionality has apparently been replaced by DBUS, but I don't know what the new embedding system would be. Somebody did Bonobo for Dia many versions ago, but I don't think it ever got to quite work. -Lars _______________________________________________ Dia-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/dia-list FAQ at http://live.gnome.org/Dia/Faq Main page at http://live.gnome.org/Dia
