@section whatis What is wxWidgets?
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
wxWidgets is a C++ framework providing GUI (Graphical User
|
||||
Interface) and other facilities on more than one platform. Version 2 and higher
|
||||
currently support all desktop versions of MS Windows, Unix with GTK+ 1.x or 2.x,
|
||||
Unix with Motif, Unix with just X11, Unix with DirectFB, Mac OS X, OS/2.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
wxWidgets was originally developed at the Artificial Intelligence
|
||||
Applications Institute, University of Edinburgh, for internal use,
|
||||
and was first made publicly available in 1992.
|
||||
Version 2 is a vastly improved version written and maintained by
|
||||
Julian Smart, Robert Roebling, Vadim Zeitlin, Vaclav Slavik and many others.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
This manual contains a class reference and topic overviews.

@section why Why another cross-platform development tool?
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
wxWidgets was developed to provide a cheap and flexible way to maximize
|
||||
investment in GUI application development. While a number of commercial
|
||||
class libraries already existed for cross-platform development,
|
||||
none met all of the following criteria:
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{enumerate}\itemsep=0pt
|
||||
\item low price;
|
||||
\item source availability;
|
||||
\item simplicity of programming;
|
||||
\item support for a wide range of compilers.
|
||||
\end{enumerate}
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Since wxWidgets was started, several other free or almost-free
|
||||
GUI frameworks have emerged. However, none has the range of
|
||||
features, flexibility, documentation and the well-established
|
||||
development team that wxWidgets has.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
As open source software, wxWidgets has benefited from comments,
|
||||
ideas, bug fixes, enhancements and the sheer enthusiasm of
|
||||
users. This gives wxWidgets a certain advantage over its

Version 2 goes much further than previous versions in terms of
|

generality and features, allowing applications to be produced

that are often indistinguishable from those produced using

single-platform toolkits such as Motif, GTK+ and MFC.

|

|

|

To make use of wxWidgets, you currently need one of the following setups.

\begin{enumerate}\itemsep=0pt

(c) Mac OS/Mac OS X:

\begin{enumerate}\itemsep=0pt

Under all platforms it's recommended to have large amounts of free hard disk
|
||||
space. The exact amount needed depends on the port, compiler and build
|
||||
configurations but to give an example, a debug build of the library may take up
|

to 500MB.
