i see. and these dlload'ed modules which do all the wrapping have these
revealing names like "libsuil_qt4_in_gtk2" and "libsuil_gtk2_in_qt4"... :/

nice, but i figure it's a solution in a world where the host and the
plugin are either of those 2 toolkits and only under a x11 umbrella.
what if a plugin developer wishes to do it on fltk, juce, plain xlib,
win32/64, carbon, cocoa, whatever? (lv2_external_ui already allows that
*grin*)) aha, you'll probably say there will be a plethora of
combinations on those modules like
"libsuil_$(plugin-toolkit)_in_$(host-toolkit)"... is that it?

sorry to be such a troll:) maybe i'll shut up now.

anyway, i'm still looking forward to this libsuil project, by all means
an excellent effort. sincerely agree that it will do a lot better than
the current lv2_gtk_ui situation.

cya

ps. btw, i removed all gtk wrapping/xembed-ding from qtractor since it
was more the bloat than the trouble--if one has to link to libgtk just
to get a lousy x11 window-id from a GtkWidget then one's better off
doing it all the-gtk-way:)
