Thanks Roberto.

As first step, I am matching HMG's "define window" command with that of xhgtk's init window command. Let us see, whether I can succeed. :)

After some alterations, I could compile helloworld.prg in hmg style.

The number of dll files required to run the program made me worried. :(

What do you exactly mean?

The runtime files to execute the app?

Yes Roberto. Run time dll files.

Well... anyway You'll run the app on Linux only, so, the dlls required on Windows, doesn't matters.

I'm not sure, but I guess that if your distribution has GTK already (almost all have it) you'll not need anymore besides your app binary (.o).

Ok. Now I understand. :)

I will try to give a decent version after cleaning my code.

Hi Rathi,

Thanks a lot for your work :)

I am very much tempted to see the FIRST window created with HMG+gtk :D If possible can you please upload the screen shot of the window.

BTW, yesterday I got the Ubuntu CD from Canonical. I tested it with my Celeron laptop ;) (at 1:30 am!!! ;)) . Yes, I couldn't believe it's performance, even running from CD :o

With best regards.

Sudip

Yes Sudip.

Even though it is not much different, here is the screenshot.

This is the code. Note the change in the include file.

Code: Select all

# include "xhgtk.ch"
# include "hmgtk.ch"

function main
define window helloworld at 0,0 width 400 height 300 title "Hello World" main
end window
activate window helloworld
return nil
