ANSI C compliant or C++ cross-platform GUI library?

I'm searching for a simple library for creating GUI that can have:

  1. a portable codebase across different compilers and OS
  2. can be easily extended to a new platform if that platform it's not natively supported
  3. are real library and not just a collection of #define, tools and other un-portable and non-standard things.

So far the "best" match is QT that is just the opposite of each one of this 3 points, especially the 3rd one (moc compiler and #defines ... ).

I also do not need data structures and 10000 extra functions, i just need to code a portable GUI, hipotetically i don't even need a signal slot library included because I can handle signals with third part libraries.

If there is no such lib available can you point me to a resource where I can learn about the OS specific basics about Widgets and Windows ?

I never used it, but I would suggest looking into IUP

From what I read this would fit the bill quite well. The project is also quite active. Though it is probably not too pretty.
