If that is not what you meant, you are not answering the actual question, you are just giving the OP a hint how to accomplish option 1 if that is the route he decides to go. | |

| Feb 18, 2016 at 1:56 | comment | added | Stan Huang at Taiwan | The point is not whether or not the GUI framework used for porting is cross-platform or not. The point is that the original VxWorks application has lots of calls to GUI library functions which are not compatible with Windows. I was requested to come out a program functioning as the original VxWorks application, so that the customers can use it exactly the same way. Besides, my very point here is the GUI portion. How can I migrate it very efficiently. | |

| Feb 17, 2016 at 12:17 | comment | added | Brandin | "consider making your application a web application" - this is too presumptious. Whether a Web application is an appropriate replacement for a current Desktop app depends on a lot of factors. | |
