[lazarus] My opinions

[Baeseman, Cliff]

Nope I do not use fcomponent at all. I do not think it will be needed in the
Win32 stuff at all either. All GUI objects are totally contained within a
widget stack contained in the engine itself.

I am going to build the win32 framework tonight and send it to Jeff W if he
want's it. He should have a bunch of it going in just a few days. I did not
get to work on the QT stuff much this week end because the boys (beer
drinkers) would not let me play on my system. So they twisted my arm and we
ended up drinking beer all weekend.

We could add the SELF to the message stuircture that we send.

Hey Cliff, on an offshoot of this topic, does QT use the fcomponent that we
are using for GTK or are you ignoring it?  I'm wondering if it should be
moved out into a different class if QT and WIN32 aren't going to use it.

If we do that we also need to make sure to pass the object since in win32
and QT I need to ident the object making the call...

Florian brings up a good point. We COULD call the functions directly in SOME
cases, like drawpixel as long as we made sure that each ???object.pp file
has those functions in them.  This certainly would speed things up.   

I like the send message function because then we only need to have one real
public function in the object interface (gtkinterface class) but if we were
able to call the functions directgly, we would aviod the large CASE
statement but then we would have to make sure that we add a function called
DRAWPIXEL in the win32 interface, the QT interface, etc.  I think in this
case that would work though....

Thoughts?

But the message dispatching takes a lot of time (compared with a direct
virtual call), remember my drawpixel example!
