[Gambas-devel] Building Components

[Vince Scott]

Benoit,
 
First, I want to say thanks for the reply. Second, I have really enjoyed writing applications in Gambas. It has allowed many Windows developers to migrate to Linux.
 
Where might I find the documentation for component written in Gambas. I've create the shell of one but don't understand what do with the 2 classes created or where I need to put them to access them.
 
I'm want to put reusable logic in these components so they can be more easily tested and reuse. I have found that sharing class file between projects can be very complicated. In this situation I would want to build components in Gambas to abstract the data. Our legacy system is built on C/C++. I would like to build components that interface better with this legacy code and encapsulate our business logic...thus also allowing us to automate testing.
 
If you can help me I would be willing to document the process I go through of creating a simple component and posting it for others. I think the real strength of Gambas is yet to be tapped with the development of components. That's what made VB so powerful...were all the 3rd party components.
 
Thank,
Vince
