From what I remember, the equivalent code in something like Toolbox or Xt wasn't better or easier -- just different.

- ultramancool 12y agoQuite amazing to see how Qt compares to this these days. Can accomplish this in a few lines without any generated code or other nonsense.
- wolfgke 12y agoQt wraps both XLib and WinAPI. So the same argument can be brought for WinAPI, too.
- pjmlp 12y agoActually in the case of Xlib and Xt it was even worse. Motif made it better, but still. My exercise for fellow developers joking about the Windows API was to ask them how they would do similarly in Xlib/Xt/Motif.
