If externals are used in an edje file (let's just say something like the example external_emotion_elm.edc), where do those 'external' widgets come from ? If I use a part type: EXTERNAL with source: elm/button (just as an example), how does edje know to get that part from elm ? and how does that work wrt elm itself ? My understanding is that an elm_button would need the elm main loop running...and if that is the case, what happens when there are multiple elm externals being used ? Is that causing more than one elm main loop ?? ... Lots of questions wrt externals, and very little docs for it :( dh -- "If C gives you enough rope to hang yourself, then C++ gives you enough rope to bind and gag your neighborhood, rig the sails on a small ship, and still have enough rope to hang yourself from the yardarm" - Anonymous quote from the The UNIX-HATERS Handbook ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download new Adobe(R) Flash(R) Builder(TM) 4 The new Adobe(R) Flex(R) 4 and Flash(R) Builder(TM) 4 (formerly Flex(R) Builder(TM)) enable the development of rich applications that run across multiple browsers and platforms.
