What is HMG Extended Edition ?
"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
Well..
for the new people approaching HMG EE we can say that
this is
a mix between one of the best programming and data manipulation languages
ever created (xBase) and the simple GUI commands
based upon VB RapidQ
style and WinAPI.
All GUI objects are
public and can be created and managed with very simple code.
The basic components
of HMG Extended Edition are:
* Harbour
(or xHarbour) Compiler (generates C code from xBase code).
* Harbour
MiniGUI Extended library (functions and preprocessor
directives
to handle GUI).
* Borland C++ (most
often used), MinGW, Open Watcom
or Pelles C compilers.
* Harbour
MiniGUI IDE (optional tool for two-way visual
design).
What are the main
project goals ?
""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
To keep the GUI
handling as easy, elegant and clean as possible and the
library core as compact, stable and reliable as we can.
At the same time we
provide a regular updating of the core for the recent
Git version of the Harbour Compiler.
Other of the main goal
is to hide the complexities associated with the
operating system internals, allowing to the programmer, focus on his
application, instead OS technical things.
