Example of using Wt in Qt (Which Works Great by the way, its all I use in
fact):
QT += core
QT -= gui
TARGET = WittyWizard.wt
CONFIG += console
CONFIG -= app_bundle
TEMPLATE = app
SOURCES += main.cpp
LIBS += -L/usr/lib -I/usr/local/include -lwt -lwthttp -lwtdbo -lcrypt
-ltiff -lpng
LIBS += -lboost_signals -lboost_filesystem -lboost_system -lboost_regex
-lboost_date_time -lboost_thread
Notice Boost... Not a problem.
Lets see... works great; QtLinguist; I never liked it; but I bet I can do
better if I put some work into it, which I am working on; and that its what
it come down to.
Wt is Open Source; Licenses are for Lawyers, personally I have no need for
them, so no need to talk about them, its the License this project uses, so
use it or move on; not to be smart, but to be real; this conversation is
getting old; Wt is great; no one argues that point; the community does what
it can to support it; and answer questions as well as it can without
insulting anyone, so do not get insulted with my remarks; I have not
connection to the people in this project, I am just a person who is in the
Mailing list and nothing more, but I have a great deal of respect for these
People, so I answer this question, and having followed this project for
years... I can say from experience what I have to say, which isn't always
great, but never disrespectful; so my take is that it is what it is, and
nothing more; if you want to know if it will fit your project; then write
it and find out; that's the approach I had to take, I understand that the
people working on it, have little time to do much else, the Documentation
is mostly only helpful if you know how to use the Library, so you ask
questions that are geared around that problem, and people can answer, but
General Questions and pointed remarks only makes answering the question
into a no win situation, so lets look at alternatives, if you use Qt, you
can not get to a web app from here, not like the one in Wt, unless I missed
something, so why Join Qt? Well that is a can of Worms I would not open,
they are a Commercial Enterprise, no doubt about it; look at the License,
joining it would not make things better, sorry if you think it would, but
No License would be better in my Mind, so instead of asking questions that
really can not be answered without Politics, ask how to do something with
the Library, you will get more help that way, the Project is what it is, as
I said, the people working on it are doing a great job, so let them work on
it; and look at it for what you can do with it, instead of worrying about
the Politics of Licenses, if you go Commercial; I do not see a problem, you
have Qt which is far more restrictive then Wt, in my mind, I know you can
come back with bla bla bla, but Licenses do not interest me, no matter
which one you chose, someone will not like it, but I use Qt and Wt and fine
no need for a Designer, I am a Huge Qt fan, and can show you how to make a
Qt pro file if you ask, in fact, even writing Qt apps, I find the Designers
limiting; as do all Real Programmers, yes we like them when they can get
the Job done easier, but in real life, that is very seldom the case, but I
do see your Point, and I would like a Designer as Well, so guess what, it
might happen if we put a little work into it.
So that said, minus the License and Designer, which is all Politics, what
is it you really want to know... Can you write the Best Web Apps on the
Market and do the People that use it Love it? The Answer is Yes. But that
is My own Option and Millage will vary.
In my Option, this Project is the best out there, I keep looking, but
nothing, this is it as far as I know, so I deal with it and I am grateful
for the work put into this project, any help I and others can offer, are
best ask by how to do something, not comparing it, or wondering if its what
you want; no one can answer that, but personally we all fell your pain, do
I go with this or do I not; we all hope you do and enjoy it as much as we
do, so good luck and I hope this helps in your decision.
