Wt – C++ Web Toolkit

I used Wt about a year ago for an application at work. I was able to write a GUI program that could be accessed at a web address or with a native Qt application, and Wt was equivalent enough (API-wise) that I was able to template between the two. Really neat actually. There was one place where the GUI was defined and you could choose whether you wanted web, native, or both! Only stumbling block was when I needed some…

Bring it on! You C++ web developers are cut from raw brass, and you have more guts than I. Nevertheless, I would love to see Wt added to our project [1]. Any follow-up on that? [1] http://www.marshut.com/kvuyp/is-someone-interested-in-cppcms...

WT has been around for years. It's interesting from a technology standpoint, but before you get too excited, TAL at their license[1]. Gui toolkits often have exceptions so that their license doesn't infect the application using it. Not wt. They have only two options, gpl and commercial.

I tried the WSound demo at the exact same time my UPS lost power and started beeping. I nearly spit my drink out! How did they do that?! Then reality settled back in and I thought myself an idiot.
