on the dcpp lib part, my first task a few months ago was to make it compilable using scons; "scons test=1" correctly builds the lib and runs tests. instead of if-guarding too much, i prefer a wait&see approach here as Windows is rapidly getting up to par with Linux in terms of "advanced" C++ support: file IO already working through boost, but requires some tests with locales and such; sockets are done thanks to boost asio; threading (std::thread) support almost there. therefore, i am not foreseeing any huge architectural change in the dcpp lib part unless it is meant to move to more recent C++ facilities.
regarding DWT, i plan on first trying the path arnetheduck initially suggested: bindings between DWT and GTK. not sure how workable that is but it would be awesome if that could advance. :) this would avoid having to re-write the GUI code for the most part. the fallback solutions are of course already known. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Dcplusplus-team, which is subscribed to DC++. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1297688 Title: Moving away from Win API to Multiplatform Status in DC++: New Bug description: Isnt it time to move away from Win API to multi-platform so every platform can enjoy the vanilla client without using mods. Currently im running DC++ under Wine and there are alot of missing features under Wine since they are windows specific and not working proper under Wine and that got me thinking why.. More and more are moving away from Windows these days since the introduction of Windows 8 to other platforms and the development of LinuxDC++ seems really low more dead to be fair so why not fill the void with small steps towards true multi-platform. and without starting to talk about what windows manager to use etc im more or less talking about core features but if i can suggest something that seems ok, its QT5 i truly hope this feature request at least gets some proper consideration and discussion at the top level.
