Subject: REALLY cross-platform libraries?
Print | Individual message | Show original | Report this message | Find messages by this author
I'm looking for a PD (or GNU-type license) class library for implementing
simple GUIs under Mac OS, Windows, and X-Windows.  I've searched the Web
and read the reviews, but most of them seem to think a library is
platform-independent if it runs under Unix and Windows.

If there is no such thing, I'd be interested in writing one.  Would
anyone else be interested in it?  Interested enough to help?

Thanks,
Joe Strout

Try a look at wxWindows. It is ready for MS windows and X-windows, and a  
Mac port is in alpha release.

Writing your own is very much work, and wxWindows already has a user  
communtity which pushes it forward.

Regards
Wolfgang

I strongly reccomend you take a look at YACL. First off, it will work under
Win16, OS/2, UNIX/Xwindow, and in the future, Win32. The library is *very*
well designed and incredibly easy to use (I wrote my first dialog box 15
minutes after picking up the manual). The documentation is availible from
ftp://ftp.aw.com/pub/computer-science/YACL/*
If you like, you should have little trouble porting this library to any
platform you wish.
