Hello David,
Maybe I should have specified any input except
trollish input.
WideStudio was designed to work on the T-Engine.
Okay i looked at the t-engine.org website and read
http://www.t-engine.org/maker/T-EngineFAQ.txt
But this does not answer any questings about the WxStudio widget set
or the project.
Why did the WxStudio project die when there are so many companies
behind the T-Engine. I mean the T-Engine Forum looks like a "Who is
Who in the IT Industry". This is one of the most important questions
if you want to revive any project ! And this is not a trollish
question.

I think you've got a poor understanding of the (L)GPL, buddy. You can
make any changes at all to a (L)GPL application without having to
submit it back to the project owner. The only stipulation the GPL
makes is that if you release your project to the public, there has to
be a way for someone to get the code.
Maybe you'd understand it a little better if you didn't spend so much
time calling people trolls because they have an opinion contrary to
yours.

I'm quite familiar with apple's HIG and the differences between it and the way applications look and feel in Linux and Windows. However, I think you're a bit off in calling it impossible. It would require a toolkit that made you know and account for the quirks of different operating systems, but it's far from impossible.
However, speaking on a more practical level, A lot of people would just be happy with being able to write code that looks decent and doesn't require too much work to set up on any individual target platform.
It's possible. Hell, hop on a mac and download the neat Gimp package that exists. Yes, it's GTK, and yes, it even requires X11 to be installed. However, it comes in an OSX .app bundle, comes pre-packaged with it's own copy of gtk+ in there with it's own theme, and even knows how to launch X11 on it's own when it launches. It's nowhere close to fully native, but it's good enough not to scare people away.
It'd be a bit of work to write a toolkit that could create something like that, either through using native widgets or whatever, but it is possible, and it's something I wish we'd see come up.

Hello David,
(I believe QT is actually an exception to this, and
they now provide a
fully native OSX Framework. Are there ruby bindings
for QT?)
Yes, Thank you to Lypanov.
http://raa.ruby-lang.org/project/qtruby/
This is an updated qtruby binding. It is very good. It
has the signal and slots system handled. Unfortunately
Qt is GPL'ed. So, I won't be using it unless there is
a OpenSource app I am hacking on.
You know that Qt is also available with a commerical license.
And i must say i don't understand your attitude, you are fighting
against other commercial projects but always tell us that you write
your own commerical programs/widgets. Do you really think that this
fits together.

The problem is different, it's not only an API question.

Windows <-> Linux just because the Linux toolkits look much like the

FireFox and Thunderbird are pretty damn good. There are differences ofcourse to make it more mac-like. Shortcuts using symbols, based on command instead of control or alt. Changed menu structure (preferences and quit under the application menu, instead of file and edit). The usage of sheets instead of modal dialogs. Things could be better, but none would require a massive rewrite, or needs the use of another toolkit. So, yes, you need different versions for mac/linux/win to make a decent gui app, but the differences aren't that major that you need to rewrite your entire application.
Allot of Java apps also integrate nicely. (for example Jedit). You need changes, you need to follow the mac hig to give a nice experience, but you don't need to rewrite it in either cocoa/carbon. It is easier to get things right if you use cocoa instead of something else, but it is not absolutely necessary for a nicely integrated mac application.

Just to inject a measure of sanity into this, isn't Lothar developing

Bullshit. You should learn to read and write more carefull.
I just responded twice. And you both time started your fucking troll

One was your request for comment about the WideStudio GUI toolkit.
I told you my impression that i don't like the GUI toolkit for a
number of reasons i mentionend
(you never replied about the problems, just "send patches").
http://groups.google.com/groups?dq=&hl=de&lr=&ie=UTF-8&threadm=200408032245.44309.sander%40knology.net&prev=/groups%3Fdq%3D%26num%3D25%26hl%3Dde%26lr%3D%26ie%3DUTF-8%26group%3Dcomp.lang.ruby%26start%3D75
I didn't write any sentence about the IDE, just one about the GUI
Builder which i don't like and don't find very comfortable to work.
The other posting was a reply to your message about KDevelop in the

Where you recommended KDevelop as a good ruby editor and mentioning
that it supports Code completition and other things that are working
only with C++. I said that KDevelop is a very bad recommendation for
someone asking for a ruby editor. This was the point. You simple

Wow... That's ugly! You might not want to include this example. 
It's obviously a poor imitation of the Mac OS X look, which itself is
IMHO quite beautiful. This example, OTOH, is an abomination.
I personally think they were redesigning the GUI
toolkit and making it better on the embedded
platforms. Take a look at the differences between far
back release and this release. Ex. the scrollbars look
exactly like Xt on the old version, the new ones are
redesigned. Also, the scrollbars have this neat
feature I like, when you click, it goes all the way
down to the bottom of the screen.*which is good for
embedded devices, maybe even useful on desktop* I am
not 100% sure why, but code was changed and added. Big
improvements were made on it.
Its obviously a good toolkit to use for portability,
good UTF8 support, and ease of use(dispite the little
tiny things).
The license is a big issue, LGPL and GPL make it
extremely difficult to use in proprietary
applications. MIT or free equivalent is better. That
way you do not have to say in documentation that you
are using it(unless you want to). I dislike being
forced to do things, I will however tell that I use
Widestudio because it doesn't hold a knife to my neck
if I do not.
The fact that it is for embedded systems made me most
interested. Other toolkits are based just on the
desktop and are very unstable on embedded systems,
WideStudio nor its toolkit has given me any trouble.

While I sort of tend to CTBW (code talks, bullshit walks), I agree.
I've worked in more than one place where management had an interesting way to delegate responsibility. If you saw a problem, or thought of a way to maybe improve things, and actually spoke up, you were "rewarded" by being put in charge of making the change, or researching the details, or some other task that amounted to more work but no more money.
You can imagine how effective that turned out to be.

actually the (L)GPL makes you submit changes to the

read more.
I choose WideStudio so I wouldn't have to even touch
LGPL and so I could throw in all my anti-disassembly

Right it would be possible to support this at least on a specialiased
application level (in a huge program the GUI Toolkit is only a very
minor part of the program) but very hard to do so in general. And
its not a write once schema which is what most programmers expect today.
However, speaking on a more practical level, A lot of people would just

But this is not a task for the toolkit. This is up to you as an
individuell developer. Everybody can create an .app bundle that works
good and installs easily even with FOX.
You just gave me a task for the next week. I will look at the setup
code of GIMP.
It'd be a bit of work to write a toolkit that could create something
like that, either through using native widgets or whatever, but it is

Yes. I just spend 50% of my time last week to examine how much work
needs to be done to port my Arachno products to Aqua/Carbon. I already
have an abstraction layer above FOX but i found it very hard
(about 6 month full time) to do this and it would require a lot of
refactoring of existing code. It may not be so difficult if a person
starts a project and designs the application from scratch to fit the goal
of runnable on Unix/Windows/Apple.
And as i said before, at the moment i don't think that a general
purpose toolkit is the way to go, at least for larger applications.

Hello Jan,
FireFox and Thunderbird are pretty damn good. There are differences
ofcourse to make it more mac-like. Shortcuts using symbols, based on
command instead of control or alt. Changed menu structure (preferences
and quit under the application menu, instead of file and edit). The
usage of sheets instead of modal dialogs. Things could be better, but
none would require a massive rewrite, or needs the use of another
toolkit. So, yes, you need different versions for mac/linux/win to make
a decent gui app, but the differences aren't that major that you need to
rewrite your entire application.
Yes they are pretty good. But this is exactly what i said. For example
you can find in the "mozilla/widget/src/mac" folder 85 files with 961
KB source code which is most of the mac GUI abstraction layer. I know that some
other programs (Komodo for example) uses the Mozilla framework, but it is
still developed around the needs of the Browser application. If they need
new features they will change the toolkit and they will do it at the
same time for each toolkit. This is different from the idea
of porting from one system to another with the help of a general
purpose toolkit and without #ifdef clauses.
Allot of Java apps also integrate nicely. (for example Jedit). You need
changes, you need to follow the mac hig to give a nice experience, but
you don't need to rewrite it in either cocoa/carbon. It is easier to get
things right if you use cocoa instead of something else, but it is not
absolutely necessary for a nicely integrated mac application.
Sure you can do quite well. But thats not the point i'm talking about.
I talking about apps here that will have a chance to get accept at
http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore.woa/72204/wo/YzEQh8W4R5XN2Y5vpb71EuWEVpK/0.0.9.1.0.6.13.0.4.1.3.0.7.0.1.1.0
This is not easy because recommended software must confirm to the interface
guideslines (at least a few years ago they where very strict at this
point) - and of course you must pay a lot of money.

I think I speak for more users than myself when I say that FireFox and Thunderbird are *not* Mac apps. Yes, they do pretty good, but they need to go a a bit further before they will be able to compete with the other mac web browsers, IMHO. My main gripe is that, even after the major changes they made to make it more mac-like, they still behave strangely. There a only a couple places left where there are major deviations from the usual mac app, but there are many items that behave almost, but not quite, like what you would expect. I think that this is especially a problem for more advanced users, since they are more likely to notice the differences.
Allot of Java apps also integrate nicely. (for example Jedit). You need changes, you need to follow the mac hig to give a nice experience, but you don't need to rewrite it in either cocoa/carbon. It is easier to get things right if you use cocoa instead of something else, but it is not absolutely necessary for a nicely integrated mac application.
Apple has been working to take java apps more and more towards being first class applications on macosx. With the ObjC <=> Java bridge, you can use all the cocoa classes in java apps, making porting a java program to cocoa rather simple. Also, they did a fairly good job of making the java Aqua theme fit in well.

I told you my impression that i don't like the GUI toolkit for a
number of reasons i mentionend
(you never replied about the problems, just "send patches").
http://groups.google.com/groups?dq=&hl=de&lr=&ie=UTF-8&threadm=200408032245.44309.sander%40knology.net&prev=/groups%3Fdq%3D%26num%3D25%26hl%3Dde%26lr%3D%26ie%3DUTF-8%26group%3Dcomp.lang.ruby%26start%3D75
I didn't write any sentence about the IDE, just one about the GUI
Builder which i don't like and don't find very comfortable to work.
The other posting was a reply to your message about KDevelop in the
Editor Thread:
http://groups.google.com/groups?dq=&hl=de&lr=&ie=UTF-8&threadm=200408032245.44309.sander%40knology.net&prev=/groups%3Fdq%3D%26num%3D25%26hl%3Dde%26lr%3D%26ie%3DUTF-8%26group%3Dcomp.lang.ruby%26start%3D75
Where you recommended KDevelop as a good ruby editor and mentioning
that it supports Code completition and other things that are working
only with C++. I said that KDevelop is a very bad recommendation for
someone asking for a ruby editor. This was the point. You simple
didn't understand the posting.
Yes i will still post critical statements about software and
programming here.
Newsgroups are for discussion: We can stop discussing things and
just come together smoke some dope and tell each other how wonderful
the world is.

actually the (L)GPL makes you submit changes to the
libraries. As stated in the other GUI Thread. Please
read more.
No. (L)GPL requires that you provide any modified source to whoever you distribute the binaries to, not to the original author. If you're not redistributing it (for example, if you're using it internally in your company), this is not required.
