Clipper... Clipper... Clipper: HbQt, HbXBP and HbIDE is back...

Hello Everybody

Let me enjoy the pleasure to announce the new home for

HbQt, HbXBP, HbIDE, which, for good reasons, were removed

from Harbour's repository.

Checkout:

How to get:

Create "addons" subfolder in Harbour root, as

harbour/addons

And checkout with above link into this folder.

How to build:

Access the console as you would be accessing for Harbour.

CD to addons.

Issue: hbmk2 hbaddons.hbp -rebuild.

That's it.

The binaries will be deposited in where Harbour build deposits.

Mailing-lists for developers and users will be announced later.

I am really thankful to Maurizio, Francessco Perillo, Francesco Saverio Giudice

for their whole hearted support. SF "hbaddons" project includes

Viktor and Przemek as Admins.

It would important here to mention that the bug of HbIDE

which throws GPF on EXIT on nix systems, reported by

Przemek has been fixed. This GPF was also present on

MSVC since begining, on all versions. The fix is materialized

in .qth files, where I overlooked QSpacerItem, which is a

non-QObject derived class but was being handelled as

if it was a QObject. So, until someone comes across any such

overlook, I can assume HbQt to be stable.

Hope to see you downloading these components...
