Re: [be] Re: Compiling Bibledit on OS X

Teus,

I'm just an observer on this discussion, but if integration of BibleTime on Windows is the only reason for this being required, wouldn't it be possible to set up the switch such that the switch is disabled (i.e. dbus cannot be disabled) when the compilation environment is Windows?  It seems like that would satisfy everyone, since the only environment where the package seems to be unavailable is for Macintosh, which doesn't need it anyway.

On the matter of optionally disabling the dbus, I can say the following:
There has been a request for BibleTime for Windows to work together with
Bibledit. If this is going to work, since BibleTime uses the dbus for
communication, then the switch to disable dbus would cripple Bibledit,
and people will ask questions as why this does not work. My view is that
the dbus is now a necessary part of bibledit. Teus.
