    This may be Helpful for a VB6 cross platform GUI

    Hello Group,

    A friend/ex employee of mine has submitted two GitHub projects that allow for cross platform control and windowing system via a C dll

    My thought is that some of the talented people here may be able to use this to move forward a cross platform vb6 GUi

    I do not understand this fully, but hope to get some feedback from the GURUs here.

    here are the links:

    Thanks

    I don't see a lot useful there unless you already throw away most of VB6 and try to use the core language as a FreeBasic alternative, only making use of the Form container portion of ThunderForms.

    It looks like something only a game coder could love.

    If you want to do that you can probably use a Basic-to-C++ precompiler and any of dozens of graphics and widget libraries. Or why not just go with B4J, or XoJo, or something and avoid the headaches of a bag of mismatched pieces and parts?
