[go-nuts] Re: [ANN] goey - Declarative, cross-platform GUIs

[Robert Johnstone]

Hello,

Thank you for filing the two issues.  Both have been resolved.  Hopefully 
you won't find any other bugs... but if you do, please file an issue.

Hello,

I'm glad that you are finding it useful, and I'm certainly taking bug 
reports.  You could always submit a pull-request, but that would require an 
account with bitbucket.  

I have changed the settings for the issue tracker to accept anonymous 
users.  If you try again, you should be able to submit a bug report.  I 
look forward to the feedback...

Thank-you,

Robert

[jake6502]

This looks quite interesting for the types of simple apps I'm building 
right now. However, I have discovered a couple of bugs. I don't see any way 
to report them on bitbucket. 

Are you taking bug reports, and if so, what is the best way to communicate 
them?
Are you taking outside pull requests for bug fixes?

Thanks for the great work,

Re: [go-nuts] Re: [ANN] goey - Declarative, cross-platform GUIs

[Robert Johnstone]

Hello,

I've taken a previous comment about screenshots seriously.  They will be up 
in a little bit.

The layout widgets are actually all platform-independent.  Initially, I was 
relying on the layout widgets in GTK, but it was too hard to get feature 
parity.  For a OSX port, layout will be easy, but it won't match any 
platform specific guidelines without more work.

Re: [go-nuts] Re: [ANN] goey - Declarative, cross-platform GUIs

[robert engels]

I wonder about the design, and how it will work. Since it uses the native 
components behind the scene, you will get great fidelity but the layout can be 
very difficult to accomplish.

This is why Java’s Swing uses only a single native component (Canvas), and does 
all of the text/drawing/event handling in Java.

I wouldn’t think an OSX port would be that hard, but before investing the 
effort, I’d love to see the same ‘demo program’ run side by side between linux 
and windows to check the fidelity - because this could be a show stopped.

Any plans for a more involved demo application?

Re: [go-nuts] Re: [ANN] goey - Declarative, cross-platform GUIs

[Robert Johnstone]

Hello,

There isn't a porting guide, but I can provide some guidance.  

1) In goey/base, copy widget_linux.go to widget_darwin.go to create stubs 
for Control and NativeElement, but don't worry about any implementation yet.

2) In goey, temporarily remove all of the files for the controls.  You need 
to implement three functions, 'run', 'do', and 'loop' to manage the GUI 
event loop.  Actually, if you look at the code for WIN32 and for GTK, you 
might find you that you don't need both 'run' and 'loop'.

3) In goey, implement Window for darwin.  Again, you can stub out most of 
the methods.  There is a example, ExampleNewWindow, which if you replace 
{} with nil, provide a minimal example of showing a window.  

4) At that point, you should have most of the difficult work done.  The 
next steps will be to port over the controls one-by-one, but the 
infrastructure will be in place, so that work con be done a small piece at 
a time.

Let me know if that helps, or if you have any other questions.

Robert

I might be able to do it if there was a “porting guide” that describes what 
needs to be - at least in general terms - rather than just looking at the 
existing code and making a guess
