Re: [Iup-users] IUP event loop modification proposal (due to new platforms like Android, iOS, Mac)

[Antonio S. <ant...@gm...>]

  I couldn't even had time to take a look at Eric considerations yet, but I
would like to say a few words.

  First, our policy in IUP is to always maintain backward compatibility. We
have applications that started their development in the 90's and they are
still running using latest IUP version, with minor changes from IUP 2 to
IUP 3 (and that shouldn't occur ever again).

  Said that, Eric is doing a great job implementing a driver for MacOS. And
the idea is the same, to provide a portable abstraction that will not
affect current application code that uses IUP.

  iOS and Android are a plus, they are still an incognita for me. We would
like to dive into that world, but no doubt we will do it with caution and
certainly not breaking any existing applications. So if you don't care
about those systems simply ignore them. There are no plans in changing the
current IUP API just for that matter. On the other hand if I could ADD some
features that will help those drivers to happen then there is no problem in
that and I'll be happy to do it.

  Next week I should release version 3.21, but before that I'l take a look
at Eric's considerations and see what can be done.

Best Regards,
Antonio Scuri
