What sort of experiences are Windows/C++ programmers having with the
CommonView class library.
1) Have you found things missing that you would like ?
2) Is is relatively bug free ?
3) Is the resulting code fast enough ?
4) Do you find yourself using Windows API a lot still to get around
CommonView deficiencies ?
5) Have you done a comparison with C++/Views ?
In alot of ways C++/Views and CommonView seem quite similar. CommonView
is more expensive and they both allow portability to other platforms
(but different ones, ie. CommonView to OSF/Motif and C++/Views to Mac).
C++/Views appears to have some capability for persistance (disk storage
of objects) where it doesn't look like CommonView does.
If anyone can give me their opinion on CommonView (and/or C++/Views)
for doing Windows 3.0 development or answer the above questions I would
be very appreciative.
Is anyone using CommonView at all ?
I will post a summary.
