We can see the limited actual impact of U++; in view of this, a table a question to the U++ creators/developers: what is the strategy behind U++? What has been U++ developed for?


Hello,

It was developed for very practical purpose and clear target. Here you can see commercial applications
http://ultimatepp.org/www$uppweb$apps$en-us.html
developed by their team leaders. At that time for them was better to build a new tool and library instead to use the existing ones.

IMO, there isn’t a clear target. Perhaps it is just to provide a free superb programming tool, which allows creating commercial applications without LGPL related restrictions. But unless the popularity of U++ increases, U++ is doomed not to survive very long.



At some moment they decided to make public their work and make a great gift to us. With it I did a commercial application

that is one of best in its field and the only able to run in linux and windows. I started as a C++ beginner and I was helped by the forum.

Upp has everything I need. The community is superb and add new stuff when one face new problem and solve it with Upp.
I do not share your warry.

I suppose other users/developers, as me, use it because with Upp their real work is easier and faster than other tools around.
For me was easy to find this site when I was looking for a library to realize my needs. If other people miss this chance it's a pity fot them.
If some years ago I had chosen the most popular widget library now I was somewhere else. Popularity itself is not a value.
