HMG under win 8 findings

[falleman]

I had some problems during converting a hmg application from win xp (32bytes) to win 8 (64bytes).
When I activate a window under win xp, de next statement after <window>.Activate() is executed when the activated window (e.g. a data entry form) has been closed.
When I activate a window under win 8, de next statement after <window>.Activate() is executed BEFORE the activated window (e.g. a data entry form) has been initialized.
Does somebody recognize this problem ?

By the way, I had another "hbclass" problem with calling a method of a parent, I used super:<method>(). Under win 8 that doesn't work, there I use ::super:<method>() instead

Probably you are using HMG 3.1.5 and probably you need apply this patch.

Thanks a lot, mr Esgici (and Dr Soto), my HMG app runs as intended again (indeed with HMG 3.1.5)
