Re: Suggestions for deploying an application ?

[MA Garcias]

Those patches are not integrated with the GNUstep distribution because 
Fred (Kiefer) is working on that, trying to provide a general solution 
for itnernal drag-n-drop, but they will be available very soon. 
Meanwhile, you can apply the patch safely, for nobody else has made any 
modifications in the win32 backend in a long while.

Specifically, the patch (as it is already documented: 
https://savannah.gnu.org/patch/index.php?func=detailitem&item_id=3022) 
contains the following improvements:

* Implemented the WIN32DragView class implementing the NSDRagging 
protocol (mostly based in XGDragView)
* Support for INTERNAL Drag and drop only.
* Extended handling of WM_MOVE and WM_SIZE events for synchronization of 
window events with frontend

Please report any problems or questions,
