Hi there, I would like to create a simple graphical user interface for the benchmarker of ManagedGL, but keeping the console interface as backup.
Now the problem is that I want to use Windows Forms. Linux keeps the console interface, which is easier for the users - they only need to have X, Mono, and SDL to run it, and they don't have to install GNOME or GTK if they don't want it. Windows users already have got Windows Forms, so that is no problem. Also, I am most comfortable with Windows Forms. The problem is that I want to try to initalize Windows Forms, and fallback on console if that fails. Is that possible? My guess would be to let the thing initialize and try to catch a NotImplementedException and then switch to console. If no such exception is cought, the program runs in graphical mode. Is that the way to go? My explanation might be a bit unclear, so my apologies for that. Oh - if GTK# development has gotten any more reliable on Windows than before, I might use it. Renember, it is just for a quick small tool and I don't feel like studying GTK# when it is still a small nightmare on Windows. If GTK# development is very easy on Windows/#Develop please forgive me the above statements. -- 'May the Lord bless you and protect you. May the Lord smile on you and be gracious to you.
