Hi All,

I have a web project built in PHP which we want to break out part of into a
stand-alone GUI program. The architecture is fine - display nicely separated
from logic, so coding is not a problem.
What I can't work out is what to use for the GUI part. I looked at phpqt but I
can't (yet) get that to build on my Linux dev system, let alone code an
interface with it. I was also looking a PHP-GTK2, but I'm not sure how
cross-platform it would be - this should run on Windows and Macs as well as Linux...

Anyone made a GUI PHP application like this, with one of the major toolkits?

Cheers
Pete

I think as far as compatibility goes, QT is your best bet. What is
preventing you from getting that build onto your dev system?

Thanks,

Two pints at lunchtime, mainly :)

I need to focus on it a bit better: I'll have another look and ask again if I
still have trouble.

Cheers

Excellent reason to not do any coding today.

Makes tomorrow less of a "revert commit" day.

Not all down to the beer.
I unpacked the php-qt-0.9.tar.gz and made a build directory in there, ran cmake
(which seemed to go OK), but make fails at
[ 8%] Building CXX object smoke/qt/CMakeFiles/smokeqt.dir/x_2.o

with a bunch of errors like

/home/pete/phpqt/build/smoke/qt/x_2.cpp: In static member function 'static void
x_QAccessibleBridgeFactoryInterface::x_0(Smoke::StackItem*)':
/home/pete/phpqt/build/smoke/qt/x_2.cpp:167: error: cannot allocate an object of
abstract type 'x_QAccessibleBridgeFactoryInterface'
/home/pete/phpqt/build/smoke/qt/x_2.cpp:163: note: because the following
virtual functions are pure within 'x_QAccessibleBridgeFactoryInterface':
/usr/include/QtCore/qfactoryinterface.h:53: note: virtual QStringList
QFactoryInterface::keys() const


I'm building on an OpenSuSE 11.1 system, but looking around it seems that Fedora
12 has a php-qt package, so I'm putting together a VM to try it on there...

If you have any light to shed, then let me know. The php-qt mailing list seems a
bit empty at the moment...

Cheers
Pete
