Re: How about using C++ in the setup engine API???

["Ming Poon" <mingp@corel.com>]

Hi Ben,

The setup engine API will not be linked with Qt at all. That is the whole
point about creating this engine API so that people have the freedom to choose
whatever UI framework they want for the actual setup application (be it Qt,
GNOME, or FB Dev). I shall send out our draft spec next week so that everyone
can comment on. Thanks.
