Sorry, I know this question should probably be in software, but I dont want 100 opinions from people who dont know what there talking about.

Now KDE is built with QT right? I've been using Gnome and KDevelop wreaks havoc on it.

I'll probably learn both, but where should I start?? QT or KDev?? Can they use the same widgets? Does KDev use signals and slots also? How well do QT apps work in Windoze? Will KDev apps work in windows??

Thanks

There's no real need for a decision here. Qt is a GUI framework, which was used to create KDE. KDevelop is a KDE-centric IDE, so it tends to work better there. As for Windows, there is a noncormmercial free version of the Qt libs for the Win32 platform, so anything that uses STRICTLY Qt stuff (even if written/built using KDevelop) should work (if the libs are installed).

Hi again,

you once helped me, maybe this time again ;)

you mentioned those non-comm. lib available on the trolltech web-site. Well, I tried downloaded that stuff, but it eventually turned out to be a "trial", thereby it is good for 30 days or so...
Any ides where the libs to get from for free?

Thanks,
ariell.
