- I'd like (I think) to use some of the libg classes in NeXT apps. However,
- while I can build C++ (with libg) or Objective C programms seperately, I'm
- not having much luck mixing them together. I'm using libg++-1.39.0 and
- looking at the sample Calculator program. I'm getting complaints when the
- appkit headers include things like math.h which end up coming out of the
- g++includes.
-
- Having screwed around with this for a while, I'm wondering if it's worth
- the effort. All I REALLY want is a String object :). I'd hoped that libg
- would be a nice source of reliable software components, but I'm wondering
- if adding it in to the mix will really end up making my life harder. Has
- anybody else mixed libg stuff in with the appkit or dbkit in production
- code? Is it worth the effort?
