Hello list: I have been developing for 2 years with Qt. I have developed a GPL report engine http://reports.sourceforge.net Now, I want to abandon my Qt develpment and port it to GTK-- and STL. I will replace all the Qt container classes with the STL ones. My program doesn't use a lot of windows, so this is not an important issue. But there are a few issues that concern me, and I need your advice: a) What is the basic String type in GTK--? Does it support unicode? Can I use the STL string? b) Are there Date, Time and DateTime classes? c) Is there a nicely packed c++ library with all the elements that I used to have with Qt, like XML, SQL, etc? c.1) If not, what library can I use for SQL? It should be really light-weight, just a wrapper for the MySQL and PostGreSQL servers. c.2) For XML, I only need a SAX parser. d) Is there a library for scripting like QSA? I don't need the signal/slots mechanism of Qt, just a light-weight expressions evaluator. I have even started to build my own one with lex and yacc. I don't think these are big issues, I just need a bit of advise to start quickly with the best options. Thanks in advance. -- Tengo que cambiar mi firma --------------------------------------------- Francisco Santiago Capel Torres santiagocapel@xxxxxxxx _______________________________________________ gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
