Given Java’s continuing problems on the GUI front this isn’t likely to go down well with end users (I had to use a Java app this morning and it’s GUI was pretty bad). Yes people will shout eclipse at me but apart from a few areas it excels at (eg refactoring) I think it is behind in other significant areas.Īt the moment we have probably two viable platforms for the develpment of *large scale commercial apps* (so not python etc), Java and QT. As a developer I have not seen anything on Linux or Mac to match the tools we have on Windows (and not just by MS either). If Linux really does take a big bite (say 30/40%) out of the windows market then the one thing I think that needs a some work is productive crossplatform GUI development environments.
