1) Completely free and cross platform. I understand compiling Qt
on Windows with MinGW is trivial, whereas GTK+ is more of a
challenge, but correct me if I'm wrong.
I'm under the impression that gtk works easily with mingw, but I
haven't
used windows in a decade, so I'm as far from being an expert as
possible. But see http://live.gnome.org/gtkmm/MSWindows for details.
3) Nice tools to go with it (I rather like Qt Designer better than
Glade).
John, do you actually use such a tool in OctaveDE? I didn't for the
help
browser, as it seems to be in the way for such a simple GUI.
4) Big players prefer it, so I am guessing they have good reasons
for it.
Really? I was under the impression that Qt is mostly used in embedded
applications. But hey, I don't really know...
Of course, these are very subjective reasons... but in the grand
tradition of past holy wars like Emacs vs vim and Gnome vs KDE (of
which this present jihad feels like an offshoot), subjectivity is all
we have.
Yay, we can a flame-war :-)
