>>>OK Shane I patched the files so that they compile. You can get the files

>>>I have to say that I think the InterfaceObject is extra overhead for not

>>>superfluous code. Those extra create and destroy didn't do anything so
>>>there is no reason to have them. So this InterfaceObject doesn't really
>>>get you anything over my GUIAPI object. The only difference is the use
>>>of the #ifdef. This means that the interfaces.pp file will have to be
>>>rewritten anytime someone wants to add a new API. If you wanted it so
>>>that you could have a radio button in Lazarus IDE that would be
>>>interesting but that means you will have to edit the Lazarus IDE
>>>interface just to add a new API. With my version all you would have to
>>>do is indicate a different location for the guiapi unit that you wanted
>>>to link to.
>>>
>>>I realize it is 6 of one half a dozen of the other but I think it will
>>>get more complicated having to add additional #ifdefs for each API. But
>>>hey that is just my choice.
>>>
>>>What I added was the InitProcedure sequence so that when the method
>>>application.initialization is called in lazarus.pp it calls the code to
>>>start up gtk or whatever API the InitProcedure is pointing to.
>>>
>>>I also made InterfaceObjects a self creating unit. It creates and
>>>distroys the InterfaceObjects object itself. So I remove the code from
>>>TControl that did this.

>>>Enough for me tonight. It is just tooooo dang hot out here on the east
