Thanks Teo. This needs some work to adapt it to our make system and making it work on all the supported platforms, so I'd say let's do this after the release to not add any delay. AFAICS adapting wxHarbour's current make system to our GNU Make one isn't a trivial task, so as a first step you may try to close it to our structure. Just an idea. With hbmk2 this isn't a problem, but we don't have yet the option to use it in our mainstream build process (contrib included). If we would place wxHarbour in examples, this wouldn't be an issue however. Same applies to xhb builds: in contrib it isn't easily possible, with hbmk2 it's easy. Also the dependencies can be not that easily handled (I'm building wxMSW right now to better see), so maybe adding it to 'examples' would give us more freedom and would allow us to add it right now, if that's okay with you. To sum it up: - Consider adding it 'contrib' after the release and after working issue out. - Add it to 'examples' now, with hbmk2 make files. (my vote here) That's only my opinion of course, it'd be good to see others'.
