The spirit of open source development says that if someone finds this
important, they should take it upon themselves to invest the time.
I fully agree - my request at the start of this thread was
Alex said:
Is it possible to use the cdxml file for *only* the control (and
sizer, etc.) creation, and supply the handler code in a regular source
file ?
If it's not possible to do that - is it feasible that it could be done
? And if so, any pointers on how where start reading ....
I think that was pretty much in the spirit of open source, and I'm
perfectly happy to invest some time and write some code. I'm just glad
we ruled out that first approach as a dead end before I followed it too
far :-)
Ed continued:
I want to focus on developing tools for the vast majority of
developers, instead of getting sidetracked into individual
preferences. How many VFP, VB, Access, Filemaker, Delphi, etc.,
developers have you heard complain that they have to edit their UI
code in that tool's IDE?
Only people coming from a "do it all in code" background would be
concerned about such things.
I have to disagree with that - I'm coming from a PythonCard (and Runtime
Revolution) background, so the last thing I want to do is do it all in code.
