Hello,
Lets say i'm thinking about a port for my current software
(using FOX Toolkit) how easy is it in WxWidgets:
a) To handle a system that uses a lot of text and is pure UTF-8
internally.
How is Unicode handled at the moment?
b) Writing layout managers. Some would come from FOX some from TK
some very unique self written.
Does WxWidgets support the idea that "packers", "matrix" and
other
layout elements are not widgets itself and layout information is
not
stored in the widgets itself.
c) Support for client drawn list, tree items, multicolumn list items.
d) Does anybody know how speed is compared to FOX? Especially
when you have an app that needs to build lists/trees with lots of
items?
e) How stable is the Webkit port? This is the number one reason
why i want to move away from FOX.
f) How stable and well is the MacOSX Cocoa port. How active is
development. This is reason number two to move away from FOX.
