Qt could provide a GUI toolkit for C++ on Android. Last I checked, native apps on Android were limited to raw OpenGL.

- nuclear_eclipse 14y agoThat would still require some sort of NDK backend for the Qt toolkit, since X11 is not compatible with the native Android windowing system. I'd imagine that's no small feat.
- codedivine 14y agoWell Qt doesn't require X11. Qt's backends are actually VERY flexible, essentially all you need to do is provide it with a 2D drawing surface in most cases. There is already an Android port of Qt in progress here, with a lot of things (including Qt Quick and QWidgets) already working: http://sourceforge.net/p/necessitas/home/necessitas/ http://sourceforge.net/p/necessitas/home/necessitas/ Several apps using Qt have already been published in Google Play.
