We at the Wireshark use GTK+ since the beginnings and followed many transitions and enjoyed the benefits of the cross platform toolkit delivering Wireshark for GNU/Linux, *BSD, Windows, MacOS, Solaris and other UN*X systems. Plenty of our developers worked hard on migrating Wireshark to the latest GTK+ releases and it now works nicely on UN*X: http://wiki.wireshark.org/GoingGTK3 Unfortunately our efforts are severely impacted by the lack of official GTK+ installers for Windows and OS X and this uncertainty was a major reason which brought the Qt port alive. The port is not complete yet, but the plan is focusing on it in the near future especially if the situation regarding the Windows installers does not improve: https://wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev/201302/msg00113.html It would be really great if the GTK+ project could release Windows and OS X installers because for application developers it is not trivial to decide on picking one unofficial installer or another and may pick other toolkits instead. The hottest topic on StackOverflow about GTK3 is a question about the location of the Windows installer, which also signals the articulated demand for an official release, IMO: http://stackoverflow.com/tags/gtk3/hot http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6006689/where-can-i-download-precompiled-gtk-3-binaries-or-windows-installer/6008390#6008390 Cheers, Balint PS: I'm CC-ing wireshark-dev, but please respond to gtk-list (as well) to keep the thread together. _______________________________________________ gtk-list mailing list gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
