Please no! I hate databases. If listboxes were always taking their =20
sources from datasources, I'd certainly rewrite my own listbox =20
using canvases! Databases are certainly not required to make a =20
really good and complete application!=20
_______________________________________________
Right, but I think the thought here is to, in effect, decouple the =20
List() from the ListBox as with VisualBasic and XCode. The Rb ListBox =20=
is somewhat constrained by the requirement to both store and display =20
content. I believe that KemTekinay offers a custom class which =20
provides this capability in Rb.
It's an extra layer and therefore is extra time unless your data and code
already fits the model.
It would be fine to offer a subclass of ListBox which works this way, but I
think it's a mistake in any framework to not have a list widget which can
just take some strings and display them.
