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?

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.

So, Mirek et al., what do you think?

Best wishes,

Javier



The impact is small if you judge it by the number of commercial apps. But for most of U++ programmers the impact on their work is huge.

AFAIK the main target for U++ was originally Mirek Smile Today I would say the target group are programmers who are not afraid to use modern toolkit even if it has steep learning curve and it is not considered exactly mainstream. It was already discussed here on the forum how many (or actually little) developers is using it now, but a lot of those is literally addicted and ready to support and enhance the framework as much as they can.

I don't believe U++ will cease to exist anytime soon. As I said there is a small but good team of people who love it and who have great codebase written in U++. It already survives more than 10 years. And as far as I can tell, the amount of users is actually accelerating lately (no proof, just my feeling, based on forum registration counts).

Best regards,
Honza
