About

After a long period of darkness PortableGUI is back under development (07/22/01) ! New demo applications include Huarong Path and Animate (show animated GIF's) I know PortableGUI is far from finished, but I'm looking for developers wanting to give it a try and write a (small) (test) application. I really need some feedback about feature priority and bugs.

Goals

• Framework for GUI development
• Create portable applications for different operating systems / window toolkits
• Linux/Unix running Gnome/GTK
• Windows 95/98/2K/NT
• BeOS
• Use native widgets / controls and native look & feel
• Object oriented design in C++
• Easy to learn by using a Java-AWT like class hierarchy
• Reference counting system for object cleanup
• Support for building GUI's using Glade
• Small and fast running code (< 200kB static linking)
