Ah OK!, sure. But SOPE also has (and always had) EOControl
(control layer of EOF 2) which provides and uses the EOQualifier
API :-) sope-appserver has no GDL1 dependencies (as far as I'm
aware).
Which reminds me of why adding GDL2 might not trivial, you would
need to check/fix incompatibilities between GDL2 EOControl and
SOPE EOControl.
Quite some time (1 1/2 years?) ago I ported SOPE to also be usable
with Mulle EOF (http://oswald.codeon.de/project-titmouse/), which
is a full binary compatible EOF clone (quite impressive IMO). If
GDL2 is really Apple EOF API compatible, then using the Mulle EOF
compile options will definitely work for this purpose.
Is it really like you *must* write an EOF clone to be taken seriously
in the OpenStep Scene? … let me count - GNUstep has GDL1 and GDL2,
Helge wrote something for SOPE, Andreas Höschler has something with
bells and whistles, you wrote one and I know of several failed
attempts of people you probably don't know …
Well I just had to say this ;-)
