Open Source External to display and interact with HTML 5 Content

[David McKeone]

Just wanted to add to this, that I’ve managed to update the external so that I can compile it with unicode and Studio 5 on Windows.  Mac is next.

Phillip: I had to do the same thing with the method_dispatcher.h file.  Splitting it up worked like a charm.

The other thing that threw me, was that you had to change a path in the Startup_Task to point back to the omnis_weblib folder.

For my build, I ended up taking out the Post-Build Event .bat files as well.  I always just setup Visual Studio to build directly into the xcomp folder so that it’s easy to do debugging.  (Rather than putting a debug build in the my build directory).  That’s just a personal preference though.
