Just a word to encourage you...
You are hitting this right in the head, your work will have consecuences
for many years to come.
Without an 'oficial' multiplattform gui, harbour will never reach the
place it deserves as a fantastics either productive business development
tool.
Many, many thanks to you Pritpal

PD: In my humble oppinion, add as many extentions as you like, I assume
nobody will ever want 2 way compatibility xbase++ <----> harbour

SUGGESSIONS: Should I implement Harbour extensions to the Xbp*
classes?
I find a wide scope to add few more instance
variables to the
class.
For me it's okay if they are all guarded with a macro (HB_XBP_EXT).
All extensions have to be portable to all QT supported platforms though.
BTW, does this mean that Xbase++ features and compatibility is now
reaching completion?
Yes, these have to he guarded.
Feature compatibility will be 100% at final stages.
Right now some parts need more work and also other
parts implemented. For example XbpFont() and XbpBitmap()
classes are needed to simulate other parts exact behavior
where these are one of the alternate arguments.
But eventually it will be. The delay is due to the fact
that three-and-a-half months before I have NOT even
heard the word "QT". So the learning curve is a bit
longer.
BTW I see a striking similarity between many instance
variables and method calling convention between Xbase++ and
QT. I am wondering QT is inspired by Xbase++ or the reverse is the case.
