The old style-enum won't let us change this, in gtkmm 3, Gtk::RESPONSE_OK into this, in gtkmm 4: Gtk::Dialog::Response::OK without also polluting the API with this Gtk::Dialog::OK Using an old-style enum would let us have this: Gtk::Dialog::RESPONSE_OK, (and Gtk::Dialog::Response::RESPONSE_OK) which is still an improvement, but not quite as nice. -- Murray Cumming murr...@murrayc.com www.murrayc.com _______________________________________________ gtkmm-list mailing list gtkmm-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtkmm-list
