Hi, ALL,
I am just starting the development using KDevelop and have a question for KDevelop guru's. What is the best project type for Linux/Windows cross-platform C++ program? In Windows I pretty much worked with MFC, and on the Internet I found that there is a library called wxWindows. Is it the same as wxWidget project? What is the best choice besides Win32 GUI Application? Also, does using wxWidget requires some additional installation? Because I got the error when tried to compiling the blank project with KDevelop:

Code:

test/configure line: wx-config: command not found
configure:error: wxWidget is required. Try -with-wx-config.
not found


Thank you very much.

There are several programming libraries that you can use for "cross platform" development, and the most known ones to me are:

wxWidgets (wxWindows?)
Qt
GTK



My preference goes to Qt as I find it to have the most clear api for me.

But, you should try all three of them and continue to use the one you like the best.



As for the wxWidget config error, maybe you need to set some compiler flags for your project, see the automake manager in KDevelop.
And make sure you have at least the needed libraries and their header files installed.


There are probably more libraries that are available on linux and windows (mono I guess?)
