Sorry but this point is not clear enough to me. Do you mean that GTK+ is not stable enough on Windows (XP,Vista,7)?! Well, that depends on your definition of stable. It depends much on what the GTK+-using program wants to do, and whether continuous building and testing of the program has been

It's impressive to see someone promoting tech from the other camp :-) Why not? It isn't like it would have any impact on my personal happiness/income/status/reputation if people use Qt and not GTK+ for cross-platform apps. Also, I am not employed by anybody to work on GTK+ so I don't see saying

Around about 28/10/10 09:35, Tor Lillqvist typed ... GTK+ 2 is to some extent usable on Windows, sure. Unfortunately, for some aspects, earlier versions (up to 2.16 or so) are better than the later ones up to the current stable version (2.22). So what are the curent issues with the Win32
