OpenEuphoria

wrapping wxWindows

Could this be done?

I realize that wxWindows is a C++ lib, so its not directly compatible for
Euphoria.

However, I once considered wrapping Qt for Euphoria (Qt is another C++ lib,
used by such things as Opera and KDE), and I was going to do this by cheating.

There is a library, QtC, which wraps the C++ calls to Qt in normal C functions,
which, in turn, can be easily wrapped in Euphoria.

("control::function(...)" becomes "controltype_function(control, ...)" for
example.)

I was wondering why this hasn't been done for wxWindows, however.

If this approach would work for wxWindows, then that would make it wrappable
in Euphoria.

Can anyone think of a reason why this approach wouldn't work?
