sure, there are a lot of good qt tools, but they by and large tether you to c++. people would love to have good qt bindings for whatever language the rest of their project is in, but the fact that qt is implemented in c++ makes it hard.
- qalmakka 6y agoNo, it does not. The world is full of scriptable C++ programs and C++ libraries with dozens of language bindings. As I wrote before LLVM, perhaps the most important compiler toolkit out there, is completely written in C++ and almost every language out there has bindings to call into it. If Qt is hard to interface with, it's not because of C++, it's because of Qt. Also, Gtk+ is quite hard to interface with to begin with, given how much it relies on GLib/GObject and how weird it is to use it. That's I think the #1 reason GTK has so many bindings, RAD would be simply not feasible otherwise.
