Summary

0020416: Simplifying DRAWEXE for Windows

Description

These improvements were proposed by Roman Lygin.

1. Currently DRAWEXE on Win32 platform creates one main and two working
threads (see Draw_Window.cxx) , one responsible for processing Tcl events,
another reading console input.

Possibility to combine the two latter with the window messages processing in
the main application thread and thus avoid unnecessary multithreading should
be analyzed and implemented if found feasible.

2. Support of two linking modes - SUBSYSTEM:CONSOLE and SUBSYSTEM:WINDOWS -
seems redundant, console mode is sufficient and MDI looks obsolete. Therefore,
it makes sense to eliminate support of SUBSYSTEM:WINDOWS linking option and
MDI interface to simplify DRAWEXE source code and make it more understandable.
