Hi :
   I am studying the feasibile of using C++ with windows 3.0. 


   I understand that Glockenspiel C++ works with 3.0. I like
   to know your experience using these two together.

   Also, since windows has "far" and "pascal" declearation, I 
   assume glockenspiel also supports these "Windows c" dialect ??

   Last question I have is with memory handles. Standard C++ gets
   a pointer for an object. By using this pointer, program can peek
   inside the public section of the object. With Windows, I supposely
   get "handle" instead of pointer. Does that mean that I should avoid
   having public section at all ??

   What other differences do you observe ? I appreciate any comments.
