libxputty's Introduction

libxputty

A damn tiny abstraction Layer to create cross compatible window/widgets with cairo surfaces for MSWindows (HWND) and Linux (X11).

This repository contain only the library files to allow easily and lightweight embedding into other projects.

API Documentation is here: Documentation

A simple example is here: EXAMPLE

Features

easy creation of widgets and windows
easy handling of multiple windows including multiple widgets
easy memory management by the xputty main struct
easy to use main struct to handle the lifetime of all widgets and windows
- Xputty main;
- main_init(&main);
- create_windows();
- main_run(&main);
- main_quit(&main);
easy embedding Windows into other native windows
all events been handled by function pointers, thus allow
- easy connection to event handlers by simply overwriting the defaults with you own handlers
- implement you own events by add a function pointer and connect to it
- block free connection between dialog boxes and the main window
easy to use x/y adjustments to create your own controller widgets like sliders, knobs, buttons or trackballs
double buffered cairo surfaces to enable transparent drawing on child widgets
handle child widgets via childlist
multiple implemented resizing options
a couple of defined Widgets and Dialogs ready to use
