As Pedro says, Qt just contains a code generator; you still end up
with C++. I don't think the differences between Qt and libsigc++
signal/slot mechanisms are all that much to be worried about --
libsigc++ gets you "purer" C++ but Qt involves less typing,
particularly of those pesky angle brackets. They both work. Good
material for endless pub arguments, but not worth getting in a froth
about when you're actually coding.
(I generally use Qt, and I would say that Qt4 is a very fine library
in general. Not much wrong with GTKmm either though.)
