[wx-discuss] Re: wxTNG: compatibility with wx2 API

[Hajo Kirchhoff]

How would wxTNG development start?

1. as a separate library, using but not touching the existing code base? 
applications would link against wxTNG and (if neccessary) the current 
wx*27.lib

2. as a true wx branch? applications would link against wx*27-wxtng.lib

3. both of the above? applications would link against wxTNG and a 
modified wx*27.


My reason for asking: I hope that the answers will make it more clear 
what approach everyone favors. Fully wrapping wx2 in a wx3 wrapper would 
mean 1, for example.


I'd probably go for 3. Start the new wxTNG API as a new, separate 
library wrapping the old wxWidgets API, while at the same time morphing 
smaller components (less radical changes such as using boost) from 
current wx to wxTNG. The advantage is that some smaller changes might be 
available and used long before wxTNG becomes reality.

Hajo
