What GUI library should i use?
 
that's the question.. i've been taking a look in the internet and the main options i consider are gtkmm and wxwindows... maybe gtk+ but i preffer c++... i don't like qt because of the license...
i would like to do cross-platform development.. so what do u think? what's the best library? wxwindows seems to be better for cross-platform cause gtk+ emulates the widgets in other operative systems... which one is more stable?
but gtk should be better supported, more documentation and better rads... isn't it? and if i have to learn a gui library i don't want to have to learn another one 2 days after... if some library die that would be wxwindows cause is less known and they don't have a great project supporting it like kde or gnome improving qt and gtk+... even when borland is going to use wxwindows for c++ builder...
i don't know.. :P what should i use?


pd: sorry about my english :blush:

"what's the best library?"

About a year ago I went through the same logic that you use and chose Gtk+. Gtk+ and Qt are popular enough to be supported and developed for a long time and you find those libraries installed on everybody's machine. Gtk+ has a better license than QT.
