Hi all,

hbwhat was a notorious build-breaker since it has been added, and despite the efforts trying to fix it, it still is.

Since it has no real users either, we miss feedback and besides making it build, we cannot be sure it even works. Since there were several bugs found in it, and no one fixed them, it's safe to assume the lib isn't ready for production, nor is it supported on WinCE / amd64.

Yet it still takes lots of efforts to maintain it, it also impacts build time due to the large sources.

So, I'd like to propose to remove it from the repository.

Any objections or opinions on that?

could we leave as is at the moment, simply not including it in default build process, because there is a lot of work can be used, surely putting hands on, in upcoming (?) hbwin.

Otherwise I will make a local copy of it before it will be deleted from SVN.

BTW I'm locked on structure handling. Without a solution on it or without a standardization on passing values it will be a stopping point in hbwin developing. I have tried Przemek's proposal, but it's very difficult to handling parameters to/from C code in a standard/easy way. Could be use hashes or arrays ( like point[ 'x' ] ) ? but we need some macros to write them fastly at C level (at prg level an object can be used).
I've not tried too much due to lack of spare time.
Pritpal do you have found a solution ?
Mindaugas do you have any suggestion ?

Best regards,

Francesco
