What are the problems I can get when I port my GTK+ application to MeeGo?

Does MeeGo (ver 1.1 and in future 1.2) support GTK+ framework? And what are the开发者_如何学编程 problems I can get when I port my GTK+ application to MeeGo?

It seems that Qt is encouraged for new applications, but GTK+ is handled (at least on Meego running on netbooks).

The best for you would be to ask directly on the meego-dev mailing list, after having searched a recent information about that on the archives of their mailing list..

There are things in MeeGo that support GTK+ development, like clutter and WebKit-gtk, but GTK+ was largely deprecated when Nokia joined.

Now that Nokia has left active development of MeeGo, or at least is preparing to scale back its participation and has sold certain parts of Qt, you might imagine that GTK+ would see more interest inside MeeGo. That may or may not happen, QML is considered a "hot" technology and is being used for some of interfaces in the different MeeGo verticals.

It remains to be seen if the GTK+ support will diminish or be removed entirely, it is something you certainly want to consider if you are starting a new project on MeeGo and you are bound to GTK+, you'll want to do a little data mining in the repos to see if your dependencies will be met.
