Qt looks promising but every time I try to do something it throws up a wall of pain that I need to figure out how to either scale or accept. I hate that. Currently I’m struggling to get it to link to an external library that I created in Qt. So I can’t get a Qt created exe to easily link to a Qt created library – not promising. That gives me hives thinking about the future implications.
I guess I’ll take a look at wxWidgets as it’s the only other reasonable one out there. I looked at a ton of other libraries but, man, some people just don’t know how to create a web site that looks appealing. I mean, I don’t care about the HTML or what the screen actually looks like but take this one piece of advice to heart – if you’re peddling a cross platform UI library, include screen shots of your sample apps running on each platform you support. That sounds obvious, I know, but it’s apparently an unknown strategy to almost every UI library author out there.
I may end up using Qt in the end but I think wxWidgets deserves a shot now.
What about GTK?
it looks pretty good if not close to native Windows when using the right them and Looks great in linux.
just looked at the wxWidgets which looks nice as well
I bookmarked GTK and it’s definitely on my “to check out” list.
