eGreetings - the World of Gambas, If using v10 to develop and package an install file - does gb.qt4 need to be used and distributed (as opposed to gb.qt3)?
I don't understand what that sentence means. I think v10 means 3.10? And v8 3.8?
*********************************************** If so - if the end user had several apps developed with Gambas 3.8.? installed, and working, will those apps be disabled due to a setup installing gb.qt4 (as I think it un-installs qt3 in the process)?
QT 3 is not used by Gambas 3. So I don't see the point.
************************************************ Note: I'm having users of any of my apps install Gambas v.10 runtime files via the following terminal commands before install of any of my apps: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:gambas-team/gambas3 sudo apt-get update Is there a better way?
AFAIK, no. This is the standard way to install a external repository in Debian-based distributions.
Of course, the day Debian will be able to have a recent enough Gambas in their standard repository, you won't have to use an external repository.
********************************************** Are the v10 runtime files backwards compatible with v8? In my mind = they don't seem to be.
The bytecode is fully compatible, unless you use a feature introduced in Gambas 3.9 or Gambas 3.10.
In other words : programs compiled with 3.8 will run with 3.10. Programs compiles with 3.10 will run with 3.8 unless you use a feature introduced in 3.9 or 3.10.
