And just to show it off to the boss, we tried to get Gorm working :)

When compiling, we found out that palettes aren't prepared to be built on Win32, so I include a patch for Instance/palette.make to make them work as bundles do.

Also, an interesting thing is that palettes use classes exported from the main program. This is possible to do on Win32, but the makefiles are not prepared for it. I think not even dlltool is. I'll look into it later.

Anyway, we commented out the palettes and got it to compile and link, but got a nasty error at startup, wich takes us to...


And right now I'm stuck here. I can't find where the problem is, and I have other work to do, so I guess I'll have just some minutes here and there to keep trying this. It's a shame, because Gorm is an excellent tool, and I'd love to see it working on Win32, even if it's just to show off to some people here who are bent on using MFC for everything :)


Don't want to frustrate you after the excellent work you already did on MinGW, but don't expect Gorm to do anything useful in that environment in the moment. Gorm heavyly relies on Drag and Drop and this is just not implemented at the moment. There was a mail from someone a few months ago who claimed to have a working solution, but I never did see any source code...

I will look into the random() and interval suggestion you made later this week.

Cheers
Fred
