[Gambas-user] GUI prototyping

[Jason Curl]

Dear Gambians,

When trying to design a Form in Gambas 0.98a, I
come to the problem that Gambas freezes and I
must kill the IDE.

It's very easy to recreate - a new graphical
interface project with one form, controls but no
code.

I was a little suprised, coming from VB (too many
years and too many limitations up till VB6), that
such an instance will start the form and wait for
me to close it with no functionality.

I've read somewhere that I must have some startup
code to even start the form, so that's going to
be the next step.

However, prior to Version 1.0 that Benoit is
working towards, does it make sense that either:

a) The form is displayed, nothing can be done
except to close the form (e.g. VB behaviour)?

b) If there is no code at all, the application
should quit immediately?

c) That a warning be given that there is
incorrect startup code and something needs to be
done?

Thankyou all for your patience,
Jason.
