[SmartWin-General] Status...

[Thomas H. <pol...@gm...>]

I've updated parts of the documentation and added up a SmartSOAP
consumer for both a Desktop application and a Pocket PC application.
Both shares the same code files though I had to "#ifdef" around the
logic that shows the SIP on Pocket PC systems.
(SIP is the software keyboard)

The sample consumes the Google API and runs perfectly on both my
I-Mate K-Jam and my Laptop.
The example also runs perfect on GCC (4.9.2 something Dev-C++ distro)
though to be able to do this I had to wrap "gai_strerror" into a
member function that wrapped into returning "nothing" if __GNUC__ was
defined...
We should probably fix this logic a bit since in later releases of
MingW the gai_strerror is apparently included...
There's a .dev file for the Dev-C++ version!
Just remember to build the SmartWin.dev and the SmartSOAP.dev files first..=
.

I've tried to include a rough documentation about the SmartSOAP parts
but I think we should separate these ones further in the next release
and maybe even supply separate downloads and separate documentation
etc...
But for now it's "shared".

One note of advice, one can use the SmartWin++ without using the
SmartSOAP parts and one can use the SmartSOAP parts without using the
SmartWin++ parts since these have separate outputs (two different lib
files)

Anyway all samples compiles and runs in VC++7.1 now in addition to all
pocket pc samples runs and compiles in VC++8.0.
Plus everything compiles and runs in Dev-C++ (GCC/MingW) though
WidgetGraph uses a LONG time and gives lots of warnings but moves on
and creates an executable...

I'm trying now to compile all samples in VC++8.0 (after converting the
project files) but there seems to be many bugs here I need to figure
out...
