Intent for package: libvdk
Hi,
This is my 2nd call for packaging VDK. I do this as I have found out
that there are maybe others doing this. I've checked the
ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/doc/package-developer/prospective-packages.txt
and there was nobody listed there with vdk. Please tell me if somebody
is already working on vdk.
==========================================
The Visual Development Kit is a C++ widget set library built to wrap
Gtk + VDK is distributed under LGPL
VDK features
VDK signal/events dispatching strategy makes a clear distinction
between interface and application.
VDK supports properties like moderns RAD tools do, user defined
properties are supported as well.
VDK will track closely Gtk+ development and relies only on Gtk+
stable releases.
VDK has a full documentation and soon a tutorial will be written.
Plans for VDK are to use it as base library for a RAD tool for
Gtk+/GNOME compliant applications.
First alpha of this tool (named VDKBuilder ) is expected to be
released on first quarter 1999.
Using VDK is similar to Borland OWL and/or VCL
VDK distribution
VDK is made of two separated libraries:
- VDK core library, contains all Gtk+ wrapped widgets. Most recent
release is 0.4.2
- VDK components library, contains totally new widgets not present
in Gtk+ and those widget considered not enough stable to be inserted
into core library. Most recent release is 0.2
==========================================
TIA,
Ionutz
