Re: [Boost-users] offtopic: std C++ / STL / boost-friendly UI framework?
Umm, just out of interest, what *is* Wascana supposed to be? The site just calls it "Desktop Developer" and while it does mention Eclipse I'm not at all clear how it's related. I've jumped around the site but wasn't able to locate any explanation of what it really is. It does mention that it 'incorporates' (among other things) wxWidget and intends to 'incorporate' boost, but what is 'incorporate' supposed to mean? JRE is listed as well (but also gdb), so again I'm wondering what is this thing? As an aside, last I looked Eclipse was Java only, so why would Wascana be of help for C++ development when it's aimed at Eclipse (or so I understand it for now) Sorry if I'm being dumb, the issue interests me for private purposes and I've got to admit I'm a bit out of touch with UI development tools atm.

This is a bit of an offtopic question, but I wonder if there are any / if there will be any standard C++ / STL / boost friendly UI frameworks?
However wxWidgets version 3 may be. They are considering incorporating stl / boost among other things.
Keep your eye on Wascana: wxWidgets with a WYSIWYG screen builder, built on Eclipse. http://wascana.sourceforge.net/ Eclipse is great, though I haven't used wxWidgets or Wascana. -Jim

I think this offtopic for this list. You can google, or read http://cdtdoug.blogspot.com/ for more information about Wascana. In fact, even http://wascana.sourceforge.net/ can we used to answer some of your questions...

...such as this. But anyway, this has nothing to do with boost, it's a third party IDE. - Volodya
