On Monday, OSNews had the pleasure of talking face to face with Trolltech's CEO and founder, Haavard Nord. Mr Nord discussed with us the new features found in Qt 3.3 (download, changes, announcement), Qtopia and the arising market of Linux in mobile phones as well as in the business computer market. Update: ITManagersJournal hosts a Trolltech article as well.

The problem was runtime overrides of C++ virtual functions. This was not feasible without subclassing every Qt class and reimplementing its virtual functions and providing a hook for C# classes to override. This is the way most bindings work and IMO it is horrendously ugly. Not to mention bloated for embedded systems. This combined with some fundamental design breaks with the CLR, the possible patent problems with MS led me to believe Qt# wasn't going to be a full fledged first class citizen for KDE/Qt development. However, Marcus is still working on Qt# and has the support of a few other interested developers. I've talked with Haavard a few times and am keeping up to date with what is going on.
