Where do you begin in GUI programming? I already know quite a bit of C++ , but have only made console type applications. Would learning another language such as VB be easier in rapidly developing simple GUI applications for Windows XP/Vista? Also, does Linux (GNOME/KDE) GUI programming have as steep of a learning curve?
What's the easiest way to learn GUI programming?
I had a fun time with Java and Python in GUI programming. Java's Net Beans (which you can download from http://www.netbeans.org/products/index.h... ) is pretty easy to learn, especially if you have experience with Java. There are a couple of ways to build GUIs in Python... but nothing as rapid as VB. VB would be easier in developing simple GUI applications for Windoze, but since you have a lot of experience with C++... why not start there and then go into VB.
Linux GUI programming does not have a steep learning curve. It's only the familiarity with Linux that you'll have trouble with.
Good Luck! :)
Reply:VB is a good place to start. You'll find if you use C++ that you'll do the same things, only write more code to do it. The best way to learn is pick a GUI system that you want to work with (like Windows), pick a language and just do it. Since you know C++, you might get more mileage out of C#, the syntax is practically identical.
Reply:VB is a JOKE. you can create GUI application with JAVA, and C++/C#.
what comes to Linux of course it has GUI programming. google Linux GNOME, there are plenty of tutorials and books
