SmartWin++
Lua error in Module:Infobox at line 199: malformed pattern (missing ']'). SmartWin++ is a Windows GUI and SOAP programming library written in and for C++. It uses language features such as templates, type-safe conversions and the STL. Like many GUI libraries for Windows, SmartWin++ essentially wraps functions from the C based Windows API in objects, perhaps making GUI programming easier.
Advantages
Compared to other GUI toolkits (e.g. Windows Forms, MFC, wxWidgets and Swing), SmartWin++ generates very little overhead, in terms of RAM usage, and often requires less code to ‘do the same thing’. In addition, unlike many other libraries, it is licensed under BSD (i.e., free to use for all purposes without restrictions).
Disadvantages
SmartWin++ might lack some features present in other libraries. The library is not as widely used as some other libraries, although the user base is growing. One IDE—Sally—exists but it is relatively primitive. SmartWin++ is C++ and Windows only, unlike wxWidgets, Qt, etc.
Versions
SmartWin++ is currently at version 1.0, with version 2.0 RC5 being evaluated.
