[Mono-dev] Qt anyone?

[Daniel Morgan]

Qyoto / Kimono Project

Here is a different project with a similar goal of creating CLR bindings for qt - qt4dotnet
http://code.google.com/p/qt4dotnet/

If you google, you might be able to find ancient C# bindings to qt called qt# - but it has been abandoned.

On a different subject, I wonder if someone would dare replace the glib and other dependencies in mono with qt.  Then create clr bindings to qt.  With these bindings, you could re-write mono using the clr bindings to qt.  Now, that would be interesting.

Please note, I am not saying anything is wrong with glib and its dependencies, I just think it would be neat to re-write mono using qt instead of glib.  This way, you could write mono in C++ and have its internals OOP.

Changing subject again, I think its good that there are many GUIs you can choose to use on top of mono: qyoto/kimono, asp.net, gtk#, swf, etc...
