gintro generates the Nim modules during install, you may try
nimble install gintro
Run
For example something like
$ grep -A9 "EventFlag" gdk.nim
EventFlag* {.size: sizeof(cint), pure.} = enum
ignoreThisDummyValue = 0
exposure = 1
pointerMotion = 2
pointerMotionHint = 3
buttonMotion = 4
button1Motion = 5
button2Motion = 6
button3Motion = 7
buttonPress = 8
EventMask* {.size: sizeof(cint).} = set[EventFlag]
Run
is generated. For this case it was necessary to insert a virtual flag 0, but it
is an exception, most Flags start with bit 0. Using a set allows passing
{pointerMotion, buttonPress} as function arguments, no strange or constructs
are needed.
One additional restriction of Nim's enums is, that values must all be different.
So this is not allowed:
$ grep -A9 "EventFlag" gdk.nim
EventFlag* {.size: sizeof(cint), pure.} = enum
ignoreThisDummyValue = 0
exposure = 1
pointerMotion = 2
mouseMotion = 2
pointerMotionHint = 3
buttonMotion = 4
button1Motion = 5
button2Motion = 6
button3Motion = 7
buttonPress = 8
EventMask* {.size: sizeof(cint).} = set[EventFlag]
Run
But we can do
const mouseMotion = EventFlag.pointerMotion
Run
if an alias is really needed. (Generally it is not needed.)
