In the case of toolbars, I don't think it would be because they
still have to make it cross platform, and for their sake I think
they'd still use their custom solution on all platforms rather than
native on OS X and custom on Windows and Linux.
Yes. But they could also do native toolbars only on OS X, sticking
with their custom solution for Win/Linux. That's what I do for my apps.
Not to mention that a native toolbar doesn't require Cocoa. We have
it now. :)
Right, but I'm hoping for some improvement in native-toolbar support
in RB Cocoa: customizability, perhaps support for embedding
EditFields, etc. Easy? No. But now is an ideal time to do it, while
the API is being re-implemented anyway.
However, considering the rewrite necessary to do native toolbars
with the Location Bar, I'm betting that we'll see native toolbars
in the IDE around RB 2008. (I'm not kidding!)
Yeah. I'm rather surprised there aren't toolbars for Linux and
Windows.
It would be nice.
