Hi Phil: The corollary to this maturation which I forgot to mention is all remaining changes to the -DPL_WXWIDGETS_IPC2=ON code should be small. So I thank you for your consideration in not causing me a lot of conflicts up to now, but from now on please feel free to start reorganizing the wxwidgets code along the lines you mentioned when you saw the direction I was going with my first commit in this -DPL_WXWIDGETS_IPC2=ON series. It is also time to remind you of follow-up goals that I mentioned before once -DPL_WXWIDGETS_IPC2=ON has been completely matured (by solving the remaining 3 issues I mentioned and verifying there are no compromises on speed with this approach). Those goals are as follows: * (Alan) implement a small variation on the -DPL_WXWIDGETS_IPC2=ON approach so that it also works with named semaphores. * (You, assuming you like the code clarity of the -DPL_WXWIDGETS_IPC2=ON approach) implement a small variation of that named semaphores variant which allows it to work on Windows. * (Alan, once those first two goals are completed and we are both happy with the results) Massive code cleanup to completely drop the present Unix + Windows -DPL_WXWIDGETS_IPC2=OFF approach.
