I'm a GUI developer in a big company that thinks "developer" == "java". Through sheer force of willpower and talent, I've convinced them that thinking about the GUI as a structured aspect of the site rather than an "eh we'll take care of that later" value-add is important. So I want to take some courses to move my career upward on this ...

Hi, I'm looking for a way to redirect stdout to a Gtk::TextView widget in gtkmm. Ideally, I want it to work both on Windows and UNIX-like OSes. So far, I've tried to redirect stdout to a file, then monitor changes to this file using Glib, like so (highly inspired from the gtkmm examples on gnome.org) : #include <stdio.h> #include <fcn...
Often times, I find myself navigating very deep into a directory and wanting to open the graphical window (nautilus) for various reasons. So the question is simple: After doing, cd sampledirectory cd sampledirectory2 How can I open this location in a GUI? ...
The program I have visualizes a physics simulation (basically). Right now, it works, but can get very unresponsive, and I think I know why - too much (read:all) computation is done on the event thread. When the 'play' button is pressed, a Swing Timer is created that wakes up periodically and calls updateTime() - so far so good. The pr...
I'm starting to use DXUTgui in my project, but only the text of the controls are showing up. I suppose it's because the DXUT isn't able to find the media files for the graphical elements. I wasn't able to find references for this in the DXUT sources. My guess is the contents of <DirectX SDK>\Samples\Media\UI are the required files. I've...
Hi, I have built a GUI interface in C++ (Windows XP, visual c++ 2008). There you can configure some parameters and when I click on the OK button, a silent application is launched (and uses the values setted). When I do this, the GUI frozes and even dissappears if you switch to other windows(it's still there, but you can only see a white...

Hi there. I'm wondering if SwingWorker has to be a nested class within my main GUI. I'd rather make it an external class to keep the GUI clear from any of my programs logic. I tried to make the SwingWorker class external, which works fine for the process, unfortunately I can't access any of my GUI fields from the SwingWorker class. When...
Microsoft pushes new GUI development frameworks every few years (Win32, MFC, Windows Forms, WPF, Silverlight, ...?). Now I'd like to develop a fancy windows app for windows 7 and use the most spiffy GUI I can lay my hands on. My problem is: which one should be used for windows client apps? Has Silverlight overtaken WPF for client deve...

When data loader finishes it posts a Runnable object to the main thread (as described in the DevGuide), but it never gets delivered and run. Here's the basic code: class MyApp extends Application { public void onCreate() { LoaderThread t = new LoaderThread(...
I've been doing web development for about six years now, and somehow have entirely avoided ever developing a desktop application. I am considering writing a desktop application (I'm thinking something similar to a Word clone) on Linux but have no idea where to start. I hear of Qt and GTK+, but I'm curious if there are any frameworks th...

I'm implementing the scrolling behaviour of a touch screen UI but I'm too tired in the moment to wrap my mind around some supposedly trivial piece of math: y (distance/velocity) |******** | ****** | **** | *** | *** | ** | ** | ...
