2. DWT fixed up and merged into Phobos.
That'd certainly be nice.
Interesting. What platforms does DWT work on? What is the general
community opinion on integrating it within Phobos? Is there anyone
willing to take on this task?
Thanks,
Andrei
I think DWT for D2 worked with Windows and Linux (tested on).
The port is very Java style, it doesn't have a D layer to make it work nicely
with ranges (err last time I used it 3 yrs ago). All the packages are
org.eclipse... The library itself is huge and the port isn't complete.
How would the ranges be used in a GUI library?
It probably isn't a good idea to bring it into Phobos since it needs to be easy
to keep up with SWT development. However it might be reasonable to take DWT,
mold it into a D like library and continue development separate from SWT. I
don't know if that is easier than developing a D2 GUI library from scratch, but
having such a library in Phobos is probably a *great* idea.
