Hi to everybody, I've been away the last months (due to a new project under .Net) but I've always looking about Harbour and xHarbour. I've already publish a huge application that was coded with clipper to windows with a Heavily changed GTWVW. The transition was very easy and the result was excellent. I'm using also a skinning library (appface) so my application have also support for themes. If you have a look under xHarbour you'll see how many users ask for support of GTWVW under the last GT API. All of them (including me) they are stacked with an old version of xHarbour. GTWVW support for the new GT Api is the most wanted "feature" under xHarbour. Sadly the original coder have no time to do it (and he is also stacked with an old version of xHarbour). Of course many times Ron said that this is a contribution library and the best way for transition is Visual xHarbour the only official supported library. The bad think about this lib is that is almost stopped for the last few months and if someone asks about it you are getting an answer that they are working hard for a new version. Also visual xHarbour is not an easy to transition library.
Brgds Mike Evans Hm, this sounds quite nice. Too bad it's Windows only. I'm thinking of similar but based on GTWVT, GWXC + XHGTK. I didn't try XHGTK yet (I haven't yet been able to build XHGTK on Windows), but theoretically it may be possible to have a CUI base, and start to extend this, or gradually convert windows to GTK ones, which has similar effect, but by skipping one stage. BTW, if anyone has experience with building XHGTK on Windows, I'd appreciate any information. After installing a great amount of GTK dependencies, I stuck with this: -- Package pixman-1 was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing `pixman-1.pc' (...) include\xhgtk.h(22) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'glib.h': No such file or directory -- (with the downloads on the GTK page, I didn't even reach this far) Brgds, Viktor
