What is more, by the looks of it, they use libwine for the IDE.

They've stated publically and many times over that wine is not used.

Was that WindowBlinds, or Litestep?

once i installed that, i realized that some of the component in my delphi where not changing... (buttons, dropdownlist, etc..) still looked like they used to. now, i'm going a little bit far, but would it be possible for them to just "draw" their own component out of "pixmap" like file...

On WindowBlinds, the pure Delphi components would not be skinned, only those components that encapsulated or subclassed a normal Windows component.

For the VCL, yes. I agree there.

But I was told that they saw it as an option for the IDE itself. (which is heavily Win32 based)

if they used NATIVE components, the IDE would look VERY different, with the typical Qt look (it IS different from the windows look); since it doesn't have this look, I assume they use the Win API for the IDE.

(an ldd would confirm/deny this but then I'd need a binary :()

Michael.

ho well,... just an idea...
(i will try to find that program again, and check to make sure which of the component are doing that...)

There have been a lot of changes to QT 2.1, as far as I know.... and it's quite possible to have a Linux application look like a windows application (Staroffice anyone?).

So the screenshot means nothing. No wine. =)
