  1. Re:wxWindows on Portable Coding and Cross-Platform Libraries? · · Score: 3, Insightful

    A year back when trying to find out if I should choose QT or wxWindows, I noticed very poor reliablity with QT, I did experience several cores just by compiling the samples that came with QT on all *nix plateforms. (Solaris,HP-UX,IRIX,DUX) I remember my Solaris box often cored after playing with QT widgets... However, QT was _rock_solid_ on Linux, and windows.

    wxWindows is far more a complete set GUI and more including I/O, networking, ODBC (database)! The nices part about wxWindows is the native look, of other *nix apps, on the unix world, which come with Motif R1.2 or better, using the Motif build of wxWindows gives a nice native look, and smaller executables! By linking with already found Motif libraries DSOs! I recalled some sample QT examples were like several megabytes! On non-x86 *nix boxes.

    For someone that has been working with wxWindows, and tried QT, by far, I think wxWindows wins hands down. I don't know why it isn't as "famous" as QT.

    My .02cents...

  2. Help stop CodeRed infections with Vigilante on Broadband Crackdown · · Score: 1

    I too am worried about broadband port 80 being blocked, so I'm running the Code Red Vigilante. The vigilante 'emulates' a vulnerable IIS webserver, and when it gets attacked by an infected machine, it reverses the attack and sends the owner a notification. I bet its 'using' the IIS exploit to send "good" code to pop-up a window, with their warning. It requires Java RT2, and works with *nix & windows. just run the 'run.bat' or 'run.sh' script and help reduce the codered count. goto http://www.dynwebdev.com/codered
