What are you implying? FLTK 3 has bugs?

Hold on to your chairs and keyboards: Android does not support exceptions! Yes, *that* Android that runs on more phones than Apple's iOS! Google developers decided that they wouldn't need exceptions in early development, so the did not compile them in. Now with the release of NDK r5 they figure, ah, let's compile them in. But unfortunately that made r4 binaries incompatible with the r5 OS. Ooooops! So, no, Android does not support exceptions (unless ofcourse you are brave enough to recompile the SDK, which works, in a way, somewhat). And yes, they did not support STL either (until recently (yes, I know, eternal sources offered STL for r4, but that is now incompatible to r5 native STL)). - Matthias _______________________________________________ fltk-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.easysw.com/mailman/listinfo/fltk-dev
