[bug #25415] Gorm GDL2 objects vanish or cause errors when loading nib when linked to ui components

[David Ayers]

Follow-up Comment #5, bug #25415 (project gnustep):

Hello Peter, Hi Matt,

I'm currently at a trade fair so please excuse my late replies.  As you
suggested, the reason we cannot automagically link against all GDL2 frameworks
is that for gsweb for example, we would start linking in EOInterface and
-gui/AppKit which is something we definitely don't want.

I had originally considered installing something like separate
gdl2-control.make, gdl2-access.make and gdl2-interface.make files, but all
these files would contain solely the one line and an include of the dependent
library.  I figured thatadding the ADDITIONAL_NATIVE_LIBRARY was not really
worth the extra files.  But maybe it is from a usability standpoint.

So what would people think of the approach that we install 4 -make
fragments:

gdl2.make - merely sets version variables
gdl2-control.make - contains ADDITIONAL_NATIVE_LIBRARY += EOControl
gdl2-access.make - includes gdl2-control.make and contains
ADDITIONAL_NATIVE_LIBRARY += EOControl
gdl2-interface.make - includes gdl2-access.make and contains
ADDITIONAL_NATIVE_LIBRARY += EOInterface

And then you application would simple include gdl2-interface.make

It seems a bit overkill to me, but maybe it would make it easier to handle? 
I do like to get it that issue stabilized though.

Cheers,
David
