All examples I found were written in Objective C, and it took me a while to find out that Objective C elements can be used from C++ as well. But I have not looked any deeper into all this. >> (Basically, QuickDraw is emulated on Mac OS X, so that older apps >> that were originally written for OS 9 and earlier could be ported >> more easily...) > > And the Apple support in fltk initially came from Matthias' early port > which was for OS 9 or such I think...? Yes, for MacOS 8 ;-). It was quite a task to get from Quickdraw to Quartz for the drawing. But eventually the rest must be ported as well. ---- http://robowerk.com/ _______________________________________________ fltk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.easysw.com/mailman/listinfo/fltk
