dude, that's really cool. Major props to the fltk guys too for making the GUI so easy. This makes me want to program gui apps now :P

I need to start thinking of something... hmm

Thanks, AFAIK two FLTK developers are also great D believers - me and Matthias.

Btw. Mike, great work!

As i said previously - great work!
Btw. are you going to do a wrapper for the FLTK2 perhaps?

Is the D port of FLTK still active?  I believe Matthias was working on it for awhile.

-JJR

No, but I am planning to begin working on a D port of FLTK2 in the middle of January 2008. I estimate it will take 2 weeks for the first
release to come out.

That's great news - D really needs a native GUI library. Bindings just aren't the same.

Cheers!
Duh, perhaps some day.
I wont think about until it is 100% stable.

Its lot of work and you would have to keep track of all changes to the 2.0 (C++) tree. One thing I did think about was to rip out all the low level platform code, clean it up and convert it to D and then create new widgets in D from scratch. I'm not that found of the FLTK C++ code, it is a little bit messy.

That is not a problem because I do those C++ changes in FLTK2 tree as well (as said earlier, I am one of people who work on the FLTK project).

Speaking of messy FLTK code... I have seen much more messy code in some more popular GUI toolkits, I do not want to name them here because I have some respect for what they did.

At the end, I know couple of very bright people from D community who use FLTK, and I expect their help with this.
