1. 1081 breaks export?

./GtkEngine.e:3 
'public' or 'export' must be followed by: 
<a type>, 'constant', 'procedure', 'type' or 'function' 
export include GtkRoutines.e 

The line in question:

export include GtkEnums.e 

This USED to work, now is broken.

export include GtkRoutines.e 

export include GtkEnums.e 

The construct "export include" has been replaced by "public include". This is the same concept as the before except that only public symbols are exposed to the next level up. Before, it was export symbols but now export symbols are only ever seen by directly include the file that declares them.

Replace the line in GtkEngine.e with

public include GtkEnums.e 

And make sure any export symbols in GtkEngine.e that are required by file that includes GtkEngine.e are changed to public.

It allows things such as:

lib_support.e

export function internal_function() 
public function abc() 

lib.e

public include lib_support.e 
 
if internal_function() then ... end if 

myprog.ex

include lib.e 
 
abc() -- good 
internal_function() -- bad, unknown 

So, your supporting library files can expose functions internally to the library, but not pass them on to the end user.
