    Where's the like button? You of course expressed that which I meant to.

    In what way is it MASSIVELY flawed? Drama major? It works on OSX as well. The announced framework edition is adding Android and IOS support. I have found problems in the framework. Guess what. I have have the source code, modify it and then rebuild it. That is a whole lot better than starting from scratch. Another poster here talks about getting threading right. QT does a pretty good job with threading. QObjects are thread affinity aware and will let you know if you are executing an object in a thread in which it was not created. Very often, I find the limitations of the framework are imposed by the underlying OS. Calling me green just means you live up to your user name.

    I've been a QT developer for a number of years. Over the last few years, I've done some Linux embedded. A few months ago, I even built and ran a QT app on the Raspberry Pi. Everything worked except for animation. Nokia messed up by not staying the course. And now they announced they are happy being the challenger. Seriously? You were the world dominater several years ago. One thing not mentioned is the Blackberry port. The framework is well done and it just works.
