Hello, members...
Well, i am a new member on this list and i am just
starting programming with GTK. I am from Brasil, so
you excuse me for any grammatic mistake.
i don't know a lot about what is GTK and what i can
do with it, so please be patient with my foolish
questions.
My problem is: i have a software built in C++
Builder for WINDOWS, and i need this software running
in LINUX. I am supposed to try programming with JAVA
or with GTK. I'd like to know if GTK can solve my
problem, and also would like to know if GTK will take
me too much time to learn it.
Hi, GTK+ is different from Window's internal API, for one GTK+
is C based API.
That shouldn't be an issue, but what would be is the procedural
design of GTK+ is quite different from Window's GUI API.
Java will depend that you can work everything out with the VM's
of every target platform, which I assume in your realm is
Windows and Linux? That might be easier to go Java since
you can have similar code for Windows and Linux.
GTK+ again, is quite different from Windows' native GUI API.
.. but GTK+ is also a heck of a lot easier to code for and is
better documented in my opinion.
