Hi Khaled,
You're right to an extent. I did include 'hb-directwrite.cc' in my VC
sources but it was mostly because of something I read in README.txt:-
DIRECTWRITE: Enable (experimental) DirectWrite platform shaper
support,
requires a rather recent Windows SDK, and
at least Windows Vista
It looks like I misunderstood that because I took it to mean that
'hb-directwrite.cc' should be buildable with the more recent Windows
compilers. Thanks for the clarification.
John
