Detailed Description

Here you will find documentation of the various C++ classes involved in the AtheOS GUI API.

Unlike your favourite UNIX/X11 OS AtheOS have a "integrated" highlevel GUI with a flexible highlevel object oriented API. The GUI is implemented as a server/client system much like X11 but the protocol is privat to the server (the application server) and the client (The highlevel GUI API library) and is never revealed to the applications. Applcations only relates to the classes in the GUI toolkit.

NOTE: This documentation is very far from compleat. I'm trying to document new classes as I write them and also keep adding documentation to the existing classes, but this is a huge task so it will take a while to get the it all documented. Until then it is a good idea to take a look at the various header files to see what is available and the various "example" sources (the application sources available for download) to learn how to use it.

Enumeration Type Documentation

enum os::view_flags

See also: os::view_resize_flags, os::View Author: Kurt Skauen ([email protected]) Enumeration values: WID_FULL_UPDATE_ON_H_RESIZE   Cause the entire view to be invalidated if made higher. WID_FULL_UPDATE_ON_V_RESIZE   Cause the entire view to be invalidated if made wider. WID_FULL_UPDATE_ON_RESIZE   Cause the entire view to be invalidated if resized. WID_WILL_DRAW   Tell the appserver that you want to render stuff to it. WID_TRANSPARENT   Allow the parent view to render in areas covered by this view. WID_CLEAR_BACKGROUND   Automatically clear new areas when windows are moved/resized. WID_DRAW_ON_CHILDREN   Setting this flag allows the view to render atop of all its childs.

enum os::view_resize_flags

See also: os::view_flags, os::View Author: Kurt Skauen ([email protected]) Enumeration values: CF_FOLLOW_NONE   Neighter the size nor the position is changed. CF_FOLLOW_LEFT   Left edge follows the parents left edge. CF_FOLLOW_RIGHT   Right edge follows the parents right edge. CF_FOLLOW_TOP   Top edge follows the parents top edge. CF_FOLLOW_BOTTOM   Bottom edge follows the parents bottom edge. CF_FOLLOW_ALL   All edges follows the corresponding edge in the parent. CF_FOLLOW_H_MIDDLE   If the CF_FOLLOW_LEFT is set the right edge follows the parents center. if the CF_FOLLOW_RIGHT is set the left edge follows the parents center. CF_FOLLOW_V_MIDDLE   If the CF_FOLLOW_TOP is set the bottom edge follows the parents center. if the CF_FOLLOW_BOTTOM is set the top edge follows the parents center. CF_FOLLOW_SPECIAL   CF_FOLLOW_MASK
