-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I know that it is probably not the best place to post this question, but I thought someone out there might have a solution (or some pointers) for me. I am really interested in writing some KDE applications (as well as fixing/modifying/customizing current applications). I am a quite able Java programmer (don't kill me, please - it's the only one I learned in school...I'm not a "programmer"...it's more of a hobby), but I know absolutely NOTHING about C/C++. First question: Are most KDE applications written in C or C++? Second question: What is the difference? (if there is any) Third question: Would you reccommend using the Java Bindings in kdebindings to write applications (this would work for new applications, just not to change existing applications)? Or is this not a reccommended way of developing applications? Fourth (and probably the most important) question: Does anyone know of any Books/Web Sites/Other Resources that are geared toward people like me? (People who know Java but want to learn C++) I know there are quite a few going the other way...and I know there have to be similarities. For example, in java you say new Object(), or whatever, and in C++ you do something wierd (from looking at the code) like Object::Instance~($qstring, @this)... :) C++ seems more cryptic than Perl sometimes...and yes, I know that the C code I just included made absolutely no sense...and it's probably not anything like a constructor - it was an example. Basically, I'm looking for the C++ equivalents of java's import, constructors, method declaration and calls, etc. Since I think in java, I'd like to use it as a jumping off point. Thanks for any help that you may be able to give me. - -Nathan -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFAT0Fh+lPSZRR0T30RAvK8AKDUGEzjFOR0nKmVKxYqnd1KRboTIQCgnS7U 5bxmK5SnF8BrVc/xYOFRlqs= =Hv6n -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ___________________________________________________ .
