Re: Windows Vista and GTK+ compatibility

I guess that isn't that big a deal...if we were actually developing windows only applications we'd use their Windows Presentation Foundation. If it were like this, then I suppose all current Windows programs would stop being supported in Windows Vista, not only GTK+ ones. -- Hydroxide knightbrd: from knightbrd.brain import * :) knghtbrd Oh gods if it were that easy .. knghtbrd from carmack.brain import OpenGL Eduardo M KALINOWSKI [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://move.to/hpkb ___ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list

What does this mean for the GTK+ ports to Windows (and most other cross platform GUI toolkits)? Highly unlikely. If Vista were not to support the Win32 API, it would render all Windows programs inoperable. Why would Microsoft do that?
