I think the "declarative-mantra" is a good idea, especially when used for _specifying_ (not programming) the GUI. At Adobe they tried it with pure C++ http://stlab.adobe.com/group__asl__overview.html#asl_overview_adam_and_eve_architecture which consequently ended up in a template/boost massacre. Looks like is is dead now. QML is also a nice try, but it got messed up with the imperative part. Maybe because the temptation was too overwhelming to use the already integrated JS engine for more stuff than running declarative part. Having imperative code on the JS side is also the root of the rejection of QML for many C++ developers. If QML would have been just a improved .ui nobody would have complained. > _______________________________________________ > Development mailing list > Development@qt-project.org > http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/development > _______________________________________________ Development mailing list Development@qt-project.org http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/development
