Cross-Platform GUI Programming with Wxwidgets (Bruce Perens' Open Source)

Unlike other cross-platform GUI toolkits (Tcl/Tk, Qt, AWT) wxWidgets

supports the native look-and-feel of the local OS. And unlike Qt, wxWidgets is

truly Open Source. It also works with virtually every standard C++ compiler.

It is a perfect solution for organizations interested in porting Windows

applications to Linux and other platforms. And with Mac OS X and Linux

gaining marketshare daily, many organizations -- including Xerox, Advanced

Micro Devices, AOL, Lockheed Martin, NASA--have adopted wxWidgets in

order to support Windows, Linux, OS X, and Unix for their applications. See

And wxWidgets is HOT. Mitch Kapor's OSAF is using wxWidgets for its

Chandler PIM. Bram Cohen uses wxWidgets for BitTorrent. Borland has

added enormous credibility to wxWidgets by incorporating it into its newest

C++ IDE: C++ BuilderX. wxWidgets is Borland's cross-platform

development solution.
