[Dev-C++] fltk or wxWindows?

[Alessandro B. <al...@vi...>]

Hi,
I want to start to build windows application with Dev-Cpp and I found =
this two frameworks, fltk and wxWindow, and both seem good for my needs =
(and as far as I know both have a devpak). From my point of view they =
seems very similar and my question is: which one is better ("better in =
which sense?" :-). I saw in fltk there is a gui editor called FLUID and =
I like it, there is something similar in wxWindow?
Any opinion will be appreciate.
Thanks
Alessandro

Your "better" question is very subjective.

There are a LOT of GUI toolkits around the net. Most of them have GUI 
editors. Many of them are cross platform. And not so many are actually a 
big framework, with features like database, sockets, threads, themes, 
etc. layers. Betwen these two, I think that wxWindows has more features 
"out of the box" (but I prefer using GTK+ and Gnome libs).
