I have written a lot of programs in Powerbasic. Recently I switch to D. What GUI can you recommend for a newbie? I'm working mostly with Linux. I've looked at GtkD, Minwin and wxd. Are there any other GUI's for Linux available? For a newbie like me, it is important to have some examples. What do you recommend? Thanks. Hans

Not much more at the moment... We are waiting for finishing Java SWT port to D...

That's also what I thought. But is there a suitable GUI for the windows available?

Have a look at Wiki4D for an overview: http://www.prowiki.org/wiki4d/wiki.cgi?AvailableGuiLibraries

There is working port of SWT --> DWT http://www.dsource.org/projects/dwt I am using it under Windows with DMD 1.0. I don't know if it works with newer compilers - I did not test them... -- Regards Marcin Kuszczak (Aarti_pl) ------------------------------------- Ask me why I believe in Jesus - http://zapytaj.dlajezusa.pl (en/pl) Doost (port of few Boost libraries) - http://www.dsource.org/projects/doost/ -------------------------------------

DFL is really nice. It should be on that Wiki page.

The easiest GUI ever is DFL. http://www.dprogramming.com/dfl.php With Entice, it has been so easy for me to get into Windows. I have started using it at my company and they are really impressed. It kicks .net posterior, but it is still very hard to get management to start thinking about d. But, soon or later. jicman

To answer my own question -- turns out that the issue is that makelib.bat is missing internal/dlib.d in the list of d files, and dlib.obj in the list of d objects. --bb

Yeh, it links fine when dlib is added to the list of files to compile & link. Thanks. I still think it would be nice if the standard dialogs could be used separately from the rest of MinWin. But I can apply my 5 line q&d patch to make it work for now. --bb

Maybe a small cross os dialog lib should be produced? minwin could easily provide the base code. MinWin needs a lot of work before it's really usable (and stable), but this might be something that could be done quickly.
