-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi people,
In the past months I've seen a lot of interest in designing a standard GUI library for Haskell. I've just realized that a feature of QT 3.0[!] library, which is a well versed GUI library used in KDE, can make writing a GUI library quite easy. There is a class called QWidgetFactory[*] in QT 3.0 that enables application programmers to dynamically generate a GUI from a .ui file which is an XML file that describes it. If a functional combinator library would be able to generate the XML file in question then a GUI could be created quite easily. You also need to access objects in the created widget and implement slots for it, which I think should be possible using the C bindings. There are new C bindings for KDE and there ought to be some for QT as well. Are there any interested implementors? :) Happy hacking, [!] http://doc.trolltech.com/3.0/index.html [*] http://doc.trolltech.com/3.0/qwidgetfactory.html [+] http://doc.trolltech.com/3.0/designer-manual-5.html - -- Eray Ozkural (exa) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Comp.
