the stock applications for 2008.8 are based on the qtopia applications, and were written in Qt. the 'desktop' is based on enlightenment, so etk is also supported http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enlightenment_Foundation_Libraries#Etk >> So, which of this two toolkits (or maybe some different one) should I use >> in order to guarantee that my app will run on future OpenMoko releases? >> > > AFAIK gtk and Qt (and some more?) will be supported also in future releases. > If you need to intagrate with Phone/SMS/PIM just make sure you pick a toolkit > that is capable of DBus. Have look at FSO for more information on that. i think there will be lots more. iirc, there was an announcement that multiple toolkits, as many as possible, would be supported by the stock OS _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
