GTK+ port to AmigaOS

[falemagn]

If, as you suggest, the port would completely keep GTK+'s own object set without any wrapping around the native amiga GUIs, then the entire existing discussion about a MUI/Zune/Reaction GTK port and their cross-amiga portability is already totally irrelavent.

It is quite irrelevant, indeed. The specificity of the AOS4 port has got nothing to do with MUI/Zune/Reaction, it's got to do with the new way libraries are handled in AOS4, and perhaps some 2d gfx API for compositing, plus some other AOS4 specific stuff that might come handy along the way.

Indeed. However, even if a pure OS4 port appeared that made maximal use of its Interfaces mechanism (and new Interfaces also), this doesn't preclude parallel GTK ports to either AROS or MOS and in fact would likely encourage developers to get a move on with it.

Regarding this issue, I much prefer the notion of portable APIs that are implemented in the most optimal way for any specific platform than "totally generic" code that makes minimal use of the intersection between several of them. But regardless of which route it takes, someone needs to make the first move.
