First: hbWUI is an independent tool no need to link it with HMG
Second: I tried to carry HMG to GitHub and new compilers but it remains locked down by people that don't even use it anymore.
Due to that HMG is for all practical purposes dead.

Angel,

HMG is not dead, maybe for hbWUI and GitHub but for all other matters it is still alive....

There's nothing you can do that can't be done...

Serge.
With all my respect:

1- HMG can't be updated and is unmaintained. Hence dead.
2- We can't add a webview control ( html reports ) to HMG just because of this.
3- hbWUI is an alternative GUI implementation (webview for harbour), not a tool for HMG.
4- I brought it here to answer Jimmy's original post. I'm not promoting anything/anyone.
5- Truth is always hard to see.
6- Everyone's entitled to their own opinion.
7- Won't bother you all anymore with this subject.

hi Angel,

did you know HMG v3.5 which will work with Webview2 :?:
press "Download HMG" Link above to get "latest" HMG Version

Dr. Soto have made it working for MinGW which is the Original "Open-Source" Compiler.
http://www.hmgforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=7012

---

the "Problem" of HMG is MinGW and LIB Type "*.A" while "other" use Type "*.LIB"
we can use "*.LIB" with MiniGUI Extendet Version and BCC (not test with M$VC )

---

the Main Difference of HMG is using FUNCTION / PROCEDURE and not OOP but remember :
harbour was made for Cl*pper User to bring them into Windows World without know OOP and Windows API

HMG is IHMO 1st Choise to bring Cl*pper Code into Windows World and begin to understand Windows API

---

while Cl*pper App was for Desktop and later for Network now People ask for Internet.
as i say Dr. Soto have made Webview2 Interface for HMG so we can use EDGE-Engine.

i still talk about Desktop App, not Client / Web-Sever where we have Mod_harbour

but how many Internet "Controls" do we "need" :?:

Alaska have include HTMLayout*** to "render" Windows Control with HTML and CCS ... :roll: ( ! Note : us only 1 x CPU )
i´m not sure about Performance as all "Output To Screen" is slow when not Hardware Acceleration

in Video, made for German User-Conference, you can see a "single" Control with use WebView2 to show Route in Google Map.
i "think" that is enough what a Desktop App "need" ... not a "Full" Web-Interface

---

i´m waiting for next FiveWin Release which will include CLASS TWebView()
https://forums.fivetechsupport.com/view ... =3&t=41862
as i understand Antonio it can be used with BCC, M$VC and MinGW ( :!: )

so it will be possible to create Code which work with MinGW and HMG
have fun
Jimmy
