Simple GUI in C

Name: Anonymous 2010-10-10 9:38

I just have to write a frontend to my program because my professor doesn't like CLI. What should I use? I thought about GTK but I heard it's terrible!.

That's a good one to use.  It's very simple.

GTK is terrible, but the alternatives are worse.

What?

Because it's the 21st century and nobody uses the command line anymore. Duh.

PowerShell proves you are wrong. But you always was a failure, so that's not news for anyone anyway.

How do you imagine that? Use python binding for C to access PyQt?

So? You don't see difference between C and C++, ``faggot''?

Interestingly, Lisp is the only language for which Qt bindings use the BSD license.

There's an MIT license there, which is the same thing as the 2-clause BSD license used in the Lisp bindings. But I'd rather use Lisp than Lua.

C++ is pretty damn retarded, but not so retarded that it can't call C functions.
Well, provided your interface doesn't use too much C99 stuff, anyway.

It's retarded enough such that calling C++ code from C is impossible unless you (a) don't use classes or overloading, and (b) enclose the entire thing in an extern "C" block.

Quite, yes, (and don't forget templates), for certain values of impossible, but you don't need that to write a C++ GUI frontend to a C project.

Oh, yeah, that's a saner approach than trying to use Qt directly from C.

Except Qt a) uses classes b) uses overloading c) uses templates.

Go on. Impress me and call Qt from C.

>>23 was saying that you could write an ordinary C program and construct a GUI in Sepples. This would implicitly separate the BUSINESS LOGIC from the interface with a minimum of effort.

I'll add to that that a C binding to Qt actually exists, using the same principles as other language bindings. It's mostly a proof-of-concept, though, and was unmaintained the last time I looked at it.
