Hello,
I was wondering if D will have a standard cross platform GUI
toolkit.
I think that any modern language should provide a
cross-platform GUI toolkit. I know that there are some GUI
toolkits, but are there cross-platform? Are there serious
works? That is, will them always be supported and evolve along
with the D programming language?
I think that having bindings of a GUI toolkit for a programming
languages can be useful, but they have to be well supported.
Will QT support D programming language? I really love the Qt
framework (except from the fact it's not open source, as far as
I know), even though I have not used it a lot.
I have to admit that I love D, even if I did not start
programming with it. It seems it combines the most useful
things of C++ and Java, which are my favourite programming
languages.
Maybe there are other questions already in the forum, since I
am new, I don't know, but a new question, more up to date, can
also be useful.
Thanks!
Hi,
There were several discussions about the std gui in the past. And
the current state is not so bad. There are some big contributions
in the gui domain. However the complexity of the topic is so hi
that there is no *standard* gui for D for the time being.
However I've been trying to start with the concept of DIP73
http://wiki.dlang.org/DIP73
(I'm the submitter and the only executor ;) with the hope that
there is a chance.
Currently I'm choosing some example ideas of new modules
(including database and gui especially).
