Re: Comparison of Qt to gtkmm

[Bob Caryl <bob fis-cal com>]

Hey Joe,

Since you used the phrase co-workers in your message, I can only assume 
that you are working in a commercial environment.  Trolltech *sells* 
licenses for each individual developer in such a setting.  Gtkmm does 
not.  See this URL (and yes, I read this one).

http://www.gtkmm.org/license.shtml

Besides that, I personally have received MUCH faster support via this 
list for help with gtkmm that I have for ANY other API (including MS) 
and we are a paying subscriber to MSDN.

As for useability, I can only speak about gtkmm having never used Qt... 
but I can tell you this:  I can make a GUI do just about *anything* 
using gtkmm.  It is extremely flexible and extensible.  Murray, etal, 
have done an unbelievable job of wrapping Gtk.  I simply cannot praise 
it enough.
