Do any GUI veterans know what is up with FLTK -- FL Tool Kit? My paranoid, 'newbie' thought of that GUI api is that the stable version is about to get junked.
Basically, it's a life or death decision for me.
How does U++ compare to FLTK? FLTK is LGPL (OR WHATEVER) but can be statically linked since that is allowed there:
http://www.fltk.org/COPYING.php
There is no U++ synopsis I see now for how U++ can compete with FLTK.
My background as a failed app developer comes from UN-deployed, but functional "models" with FOXToolkit/C++ and also Java/Swing with wxWidgets, Asio, and TBB thrown in, along with a 'ditched' and incomplete Qt GUI.
I have an incomplete ANDROID app too and "Training" there, but I digress.
Veterans -- What is better -- FLTK or U++???
It's not that I am lazy.

Looking at the FLTK Screenshots on this link that can be done in U++ without anything else.
http://www.fltk.org/shots.php
Just run TheIDE and go into the examples and select any one and click Debug and execute.
Then click Build and Open output directory to see the .exe size.
U++ is better and you don't need FLTK.
U++ is much easier than you think it is!
"Basically, it's a life or death decision for me."
Getting paid for any app is a tough row to hoe.

Are there bugs in the U++ GUI?
|
Of course there are. Any nontrivial piece of software has bugs.
Good news is that as far back as 11 years ago, I have had released some commercial apps using U++ (or what was then) which are still running today. Means those bugs do not prevent productivity. Plus, serious problems usually get fixed quite fast.
