Agreed. I have yet to see any C++ GUI library that exploits anything beyond inheritance and very basic templates. I thought boost libraries had to have no external dependancies anyway? On Thu, 4 Nov 2004 20:03:08 -0500, Edward Diener <eddielee@tropicsoft.com> wrote:

Both http://www.torjo.com/win32gui/save_dlg.html
and
http://www.litwindow.com/Library/Documentation/documentation.html
are extremely interesting.
What I see (just after taking a peek at both):
Win32Gui Interesting design No macros Looks tied to Win32Gui
LitWindow Also interesting design Does have macros Also sits on top of WxWidgets, but it looks like the WxWidgets layer could be abstracted out.
I propose that BOTH authors collaborate (on this list) to achieve the following:
* Combination of the best of both frameworks * Can sit on WxWidgets OR can have a win32 and xwindows underlying implementation
No !!!!! WxWidgets has almost nothing to do with modern C++. Let's no go there, or have anything to do with supporting any other GUI implementation.
