What: wxTcl Where: http://www.multimania.com/awaken Description: The wx is a new GUI extension to Tcl, based on wxWindows and wxGTK. Its intention is to provide a developer with an extension able to provide a native look and feel, contemporary looking programming constructs, AND still be able to operate within a normal Tcl and Tk application! The developer has discontinued development of it, but the source is available from if someone would like to continue work on it.... Updated: 09/2000 Contact: mailto:awaken71@yahoo.fr (Olivier Paquay) ---- ''[escargo] 11 Jul 2005'' - Just wanted to point to the Wx Widgets home page [http://www.wxwidgets.org/]. It would be interesting to know how well [SWIG] would gobble up the Wx Widgets code to produce an alternative binding that Tcl could use. Maybe it is easier to make a binding to the wx-c.dll of the wx.NET-project on [http://wxnet.sourceforge.net/manual/libraries.html]. This static library of the WxWidgets also exists for Linux and MacOS. ''[escargo] 11 Jul 2005'' - It would be interesting to know the performance and complexity tradeoffs of the different methods for binding Tcl and the Wx Widgets. (I know that [SWIG] needs certain wrappers, but I don't know what the wx-c.dll binding would require.) [VK] 12-jul-2005 While interesting ideas indeed, lack of sources is surprising. May be it is possible creating SF project, and making everyone who is interesting to be able to participate? Personally, I hardly can spent many time on this, but I can bother organizing a project on SF. [RLH] 28-Aug-2005: I have talked to the author. The bottom line is the code is lost. [RLH] 02-Sept-2005: I have created a wxTcl sourceforge project. It should show up soon. I have one C++ programmer that is very interested in seeing a wxTcl binding go forward. if you want to join the project let me know at: robert DOT hicks AT gmail DOT com [Scott Beasley] 12-03-2008 - Is the source for this package about anywhere? [RLH] I believe the answer is no. While this project fizzled as well, I did talk with the original wxTcl author and he did not have the source. ---- [Olivier Paquay] | [[[Category Package] | [Category GUI] |]]
