[Gambas-user] "big" projects in Gambas

[Eilert]

No need to excuse :-) I consider this a clever way. One could even go 
further and use the built-in Macro Basic of OOo to create a surface for 
it. I once thought of such a way when my brother-in-law asked me to 
program a tool for his firm. The idea was to create a way of 
client-order-input to works-order-output and financial/resources 
management thing (eierlegende Wollmilchsau - eggs laying wool and milk 
sow). At that time, I thought of a VB/MS-Office combination to handle 
that, luckily :-) it never came about because the task seemed way too 
large for us two laymen...

Meanwhile, with much more experience with my own programs, I could 
imagine to develop something like that. But I'm not sure if combining it 
so tightly with OOo would be so good as you glue your code to several 
other underlying things: Qt, Gambas and OOo which tend to change and 
draw away the foundations of your project, i. e. adapting it to an 
emerging Gambas is ok, but considering constant changes in OOo and maybe 
even more "helpers" would just be overkill, I'm afraid.
