Re: [Dev-C++] GUI library?

[Daniel K. O. <dan...@ya...>]

Try using the Gtk 2.0 package for the GUI, and use wGLADE to design your
interface.
wGLADE uses Gtk 1.3, but you can compile most of the interfaces with the Gtk
2.0 package.
The Gtk 1.3 files you can find at Tor's pages, at www.gimp.org, and the
wGLADE you can search on Sourceforge.net.


Suggestion to Hongli Lai: make a Gtk 1.3 package, so will be easier to port
Gtk programs from *nix that use the 1.3 version.

Hello

I'm new to dev-cpp. I wonder whether designing a decent GUI really
requires writing it all down using hundrets/tousends of lines of code?
Isn't there any library for doing this in a more-delphi [soory :)]
way? I mean, I would not be happy if had to code every single
keystroke down when want to place an edit field/list/whatever on the
"form" - in the window. And that is the idea I've about dev-cpp now,
is it wrong?
Is there any library like that available?

Thanks!

Mike

Why 1.3? 1.3 is the unstable version and have lots of bugs.
The early versions were partially source compatible with 1.2 and the
later versions were source compatible with 2.0.
2.0 is the final version. Eventually, everybody will port their 1.2 apps
to 2.0, so I don't see the point in providing a package for 1.3 just to
be compatible with 1.2.

Hi all

I=B4m using Dev-C++ 4.01 with the Gtk+ 1.3 Package (in the old style 
packaging system) and it=B4s very stable for my applications. I=B4m using 
Glade too.

I think that it=B4s not bad idea to make a Gtk+ 1.3 package for Dev-
C++ 5.

Anyway I=B4d have not enough time in order to evaluate porting my 
applications to Gtk+ 2.0 (if it isnt borken don=B4t fix it)
