[Tnfox-discussion] Library separation?

[Brian O. <bo...@pi...>]

Hello -

I was interested in using some of TnFox's services to build a server.
The services I wanted were:

QBlkSocket
FXProcess
FXSettings
QThread
FXRex
etc.

Unfortunately because of the monolithic library I was forced to pull in 
all sorts of X11 & related dependencies which I definitely didn't want.  
So I would like to request that the non GUI service library be broken 
out from the GUI service library if possible.

Some general comments:  We're currently using Qt at work for a lot of 
things, over the past couple of years I've done all I can to isolate the 
Qt specific stuff since Troll Tech wants it to be borgish.  From this 
cursory work with TnFOX it actually looks pretty promising, I like some 
of the added features.  Thread safety, exceptions, etc.

Probably my biggest complaint would be lack of simple example apps and 
overly sparse documentation for getting started (example what's the 
second parameter of FX::FXSettings::parseFile(const char* file, bool 
mark) supposed to do?)
