    Re: [RESOLVED] What GUI toolkit for my multi-threaded console app?

    Qt provides a lot. In fact it's more of an application framework than just a portable GUI. Qt doesn't support threading only. You'll soon realize you could replace a lot of what you've done already much simpler with Qt supplied communications features for example.

    What you should have in mind though is that the more you use of Qt the more dependent on Qt your application becomes and the less standard C++ it will be. Qt isn't your ordinary support library. It tends to dominate applications very much like the MFC do.

    So if you accept to give up independence in exchange for a cozy life within a framework it's time to consider the ultimate (portable) application framework I think, namely Java. If you stick with C++ you should be careful not letting some framework take over your application. It's a technical and commersial risk. That's my two cents on this.
