Hi everyone, we are planning to develop several new commercial products for our
company, and we need a cross-platform GUI lib used as their base GUI module.
So can we use AWT(certainly with GSL and VCL) of OpenOffice.org in our program?
well you can use it but i don't think that it wouldn't be the best
descision. We use VCL because it is historical and it would be a lot of
work to exchange it. A lot of things are missing like a layout manager,
a graphical GUI editor, ... But if you plan new applications from
scratch there are might be better cross platform toolkits available.
It depends also on the programming language you want to use. I
personally would consider to use Java. It's platform independent and the
tools support is great. Take a look on the GUI editor of NetBeans for
example.
You can use our component model to use Java as GUI frontend and use C++
core components via UNO. It would be an interesting use case.
Just my 2 cents

Does every module in OpenOffice.org follow the LGPL?
Hope for your reply, thank you!
