And in case you guys don't know, there are Qt 4 bindings to Pascal. In
google you should find them.

They probably work on Delphi too.

how to get started?

Well, Qt is a GUI Library, so it basically does the same as VCL does, so
there is little point in using both at the same time.

Yes, I certainly agree with this. The point is that I don't want to drop
the VCL to get started in Qt. The investment I made in components and
code based on the VCL is too large to drop that altogether and start
with Qt and plain object Pascal. Hence my question: Anyone any
experience with Qt combined with the VCL? Or anyone disagreeing with my
statements and able to convince me that Qt is so much better that I
should drop the VCL? Summarising: should I start investing into Qt and
start researching its capabilities????


Thanks for all help

Willem

Definitely wrong. Qt is a high sophisticated object model over the
WinAPI and other API's. Please read the manuals and enjoy...

Visual Component Library is also a high sophisticated object model over
the WinAPI.

And I already read a lot of Qt manuals while porting Lazarus to Qt, so
I'm pretty sure I know what I am talking about.

If you only develop for Windows, then VCL is still smaller, faster,
cheaper and better.

The triunph of Qt is cross-platform.

Based on ROD's poor knowledge of what VCL is, his post seams pure SPAM
to me.

I would consider not investigating Qt's capabilities for such a low kind
of propaganda.

I forgot to add that Qt has a horrible primitive IDE and doesn´t have a
package system to install third-party components like Delphi has.
