Object Tools: VeGtk
is a Visual Eiffel binding of Gtk+ which allows the development of
graphical applications in Eiffel using Gtk+. A more complete
description of the project (including screenshots) is available
from here:

http://www.elj.com/dev/vegtk/

Features include:

  • Most widgets of the Gtk+ 1.2 series have been bound. The
    binding for the Gdk part is not complete yet, but is already pretty
    much in place
  • Comprehensive testgtk (Examples/GTK/Test) program demonstrates
    the use of most Gtk+ widgets

Platforms :

This software has been developed and tested with gtk+-1.2.1 and
Visual Eiffel v2.91 Beta (Build 1299). It will not work with gtk+
below 1.2.

It seems that the project precedes a Visual Eiffel compiler
for the Linux platform.
