In Gtk, you can use the GtkBuilder class to parse a glade UI file (which is XML), and generate the in-memory objects for that UI, and interact with it just as if you had created it manually with gtk_*_new() calls. Likewise, Qt has something similar. The equivalent to Glade is called Qt Designer (often /usr/bin/designer or /usr/bin/designer-qt5). It creates .ui files that are XML similar to how Glade does it. Qt has a component called uic which translates the XML files into C++ code. But you can do it dynamically at runtime, similar to GtkBuilder. The class is called QuiLoader. Mind you Qt is a competitor for Gtk+ only if you don't want to code in C. _______________________________________________ gtk-list mailing list gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
