We did it this way because that's how it worked best for GTK. If someone wants to add the handleneeded procedure in TCONTROL and do the creation there, that would be fine. We just have to make sure that we are using the "parent" property then and having the user set it (Lazarus will set it eventually). Then when the parent is set, I assume that HANDLENEEDED is called if no handle exists.... Anyone want to implement this? You will have to move any CREATECOMPONENT calls out of the specific components into the handleneeded.....

Am I being too fussy spotting windows divergances here? - but this one is important to me.

Shane >>> "Baeseman, Cliff" 08/16 9:22 AM >>> I was working on a qtint.pp implementation just a little this weekend. So far it should be a straight forward deal to implement. I plan on bouncing around that one a little to ensure that the lcl will be compatible with the qt stuff... It works alot like the gtk tool kit for initialization and such so the implementation is fairly easy to do. Ok so how am I implementing qt when the C++ compiler does not support linkeing C++ libs.? Wait to see the code!. I should be able to commit some of this in the near future..
