Cross-Platform GUI Toolkits (Again)?

Posted by Cliff on from the windows-on-as-many-OSes-as-possible dept.

Futurepower(R) queries: "It has been 2 1/2 years since the previous Ask Slashdot about GUI Toolkits. There were many helpful comments then, such as this one. Since then, Slashdot has discussed wxWindows vs. MFC and considered the book, Creating Applications with Mozilla. The best comparison table is apparently still the GUI Toolkit, Framework Page. Which is the best cross-platform GUI toolkit that provides native look and feel? Which is the best overall? What IDEs and other tools do you use? What are the problems?" Slashdot also had a match-up between GTK+ and Qt, but some of you might have missed that one. How have recent changes in this ballpark changed your feelings on the issue?

    Over 1.1 billion First Posts are posted every year, for no reason

    First posts are a waste of space, and have no other purpose than to waste mod points that could be used on something else.

    First posts are very stupid, do not mod them down, just ignore them and spend your mod points on goatse links instead.

    Why so many fans? You're generally either funny or have something interesting to say, and the freak sheldonb hates you as well.

    Then again, what do I know, my freaks outnumber my fans 3 to 1 (that's not a ratio, it's actual numbers...I lost half my fan base knocking the sysadmin trying to deploy mozilla across his organization)

    Have you ever seen the apartment of any self respecting homosexual? If the slashdot editors were "fg8s" I can assure you, there would be NO dupes, a spotless front page, and perhaps a "Bette Midler" and "Barbra Streisand" logo on the front page more often.
