In fact the GObject library (on which GTK is based) is an example of how full object-orientation can be achieved in C. Of course other C++ features like templates, operator overloading (ugh!) and namespaces are unique. If you want to use C++ with GTK you can do so through gtkmm which, if I'm not mistaken, is essentially a wrapper around the assorted C libraries. So you end up with two redundant layers of object-orientation on top of each other which doesn't hurt a bit but which I find conceptually so abhorrent that, if I'd want to write C++ GUI apps, I'd use Qt. I prefer C and GTK+ though. --D. _______________________________________________ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list
