I strongly believe we need a separate UIKit implementation. We may base it in part on Chameleon (or we may refer to Chameleon for ideas and documentation), but as I said, Chameleon aims at getting UIKit to desktops. A free implementation of UIKit APIs would ideally aim at bringing the same touch-oriented experience as the platform for which the apps were originally written for. > For any non trivial UIKit application we will need most of the supporting > libraries anyway, so lets start working on those and then try to use > Chameleon on top of them. Core Animation is being worked on, and in my tests, Opal seems to work nicely :-) Opal is missing support for some things that iOS developers use, like patterns, but it's already working nicely. _______________________________________________ Discuss-gnustep mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss-gnustep
