Windows programs (subsystem:windows, not Windows console programs)
compiled with Visual Studio need a WinMain entry point. The commandline
arguments handled by this function are now properly converted to UTF-8
before the standard main() entry point is called.
This applies only to Visual Studio! Note that some build systems like
MinGW and/or MSYS2 may still have issues with some Unicode (non-ASCII)
commandline arguments.
- FL/Fl_Grid.H: header file
- src/Fl_Grid.cxx: implementation
- examples/grid-simple.cxx: simple example program
- test/cube.cxx: use Fl_Grid for layout
- test/grid_alignment.cxx: test cell alignment and other functions
- test/grid_buttons.cxx: demo program as discussed in fltk.general
- test/grid_login.cxx: like test/flex_login.cxx but with Fl_Grid
- test/flex_login.cxx: modified to match test/grid_login.cxx
- remove separate libfltk_cairo to avoid cyclic dependencies, but
- keep a dummy libfltk_cairo in 1.4.0 for backwards compatibility
- move cairo/Fl_Cairo.cxx to src/Fl_Cairo.cxx
- add preliminary Cairo support for Visual Studio (MSVC)
Static linking is not affected by this change, but users building
with hand-made Makefiles will have to remove libfltk_cairo starting
with FLTK 1.4.0. The dummy library can be linked for backwards
compatibility but it will be removed later (in 1.4.x or 1.5.0).
The shared FLTK library libfltk.{so|dylib|dll|..} depends on libcairo
if and only if FLTK is built with one of the Cairo options. This has
always been the case for OPTION_CAIROEXT but is now also true if only
OPTION_CAIRO is selected, i.e. FLTK programs linked with a Cairo
enabled shared FLTK library will also be linked with libcairo. The same
is true for configure options --enable-cairo and --enable-cairoext,
respectively.
Preliminary Cairo support for MSVC now detects a Cairo installation
using the CMake variable FLTK_CAIRO_DIR which must be set by the user.
Note that this feature is temporary and may be changed in the future
for a better and more comfortable version.
This widget offers the selection of all known FLTK schemes as a simple
widget based on Fl_Choice.
Some test and demo programs use Fl_Scheme_Choice to enable the developer
or user to switch schemes quickly for comparison.
Todo:
- add features to add new schemes during runtime (partially done)
- update status when the scheme is changed by Fl::scheme("...")
- Add internal fl_contrast_cielab() as the new default.
- Keep old function as internal fl_contrast_legacy().
- Add fl_contrast_mode() to switch between fl_contrast() functions.
- Add fl_contrast_level() to fine tune fl_contrast() per mode.
- Add option to register and use a custom contrast function.
- Add test/contrast.cxx test program.
- Move all fl_contrast() related code to a new file src/fl_contrast.cxx.
- Add fl_lightness() convenience function for perceived lightness.
- Add fl_luminance() convenience function for physical luminance.
Many thanks to @darealshinji for contributing all the code
for this new FLTK image class (see branch Fl_ICO_Image of https://github.com/darealshinji/fltk).
"Arrows" in widgets are those GUI elements mostly represented by
triangles pointing in a particular direction as in scrollbars,
choice widgets, some menus, valuators and Fl_Counter widgets.
The code has been simplified and standardized such that all these
GUI elements are drawn identically per FLTK scheme.
Widget authors no longer need to write code to calculate arrow sizes
and draw polygons etc.
Different schemes can and do implement different drawing functions.
Todo: see comments "FIXME_ARROW" in src/Fl_Menu_Button.cxx and
src/Fl_Menu.cxx

Added Fltk (LGPL) license.
This widget is similar to Fl_Pack and supports either one row or one
column of widgets but has some more features. Test and demo programs
are included:
test/flex_login.cxx: simple "login window" demo program
test/flex_demo.cxx: slightly more complex demo program
The original demo programs can still be compiled and built with
the new widget provided you '#include <FL/Fl_Flex.H>'.
Backwards compatible methods are included (except debug()).
The original widget has been modified to match FLTK standards and
enhanced in several ways, including:
- support box frames
- add HORIZONTAL and VERTICAL enum values (as in Fl_Pack)
- add horizontal() method (as in Fl_Pack)
- use type() rather than internal 'direction' variable
- add standard widget constructor (x, y, w, h, label)
- add margin and gap accessors rather than hard coding constants
- improve test and demo programs
- add documentation
- replace <vector> with array as required by FLTK CMP
- rename camelCase method names, keeping old names for compatibility:
- change 'setSize(Fl_Widget*, int)' to 'set_size(Fl_Widget*, int)'
- change 'bool isSetSize(Fl_Widget*)' to 'int set_size(Fl_Widget*)'
- remove debug() method
- add a way to "unset" fixed size: set_size(Fl_Widget *, 0)
- add layout() method to force recalculation of children
- unify resizeRow() and resizeCol() methods to avoid code duplication
- improve widget size calculation.
... as discussed in fltk.coredev in thread "RFC: introduce public
config header <FL/fl_config.h>", see:
https://groups.google.com/g/fltkcoredev/c/xLCs1AIXMVo/m/MHZpQggzAQAJ
- Rename abi-version.h to fl_config.h, rename input files,
update dependencies, .gitignore, CMake, configure and Makefiles.
- Include Cairo options in FL/fl_config.h
- Rename FLTK_USE_CAIRO to FLTK_HAVE_CAIROEXT for consistency.
- Include <FL/fl_config.h> in config.h and wherever necessary,
fix include order (move FL/Fl.H to the top) and more.
- Move USE_X11 to fl_config.h and rename to FLTK_USE_X11
- Do not include <config.h> in Cairo demo program which is no
longer required in Cairo programs since FLTK 1.4.0
Under the X11 platform, class Fl_Native_File_Chooser will behave as follows :
- if the KDE desktop is used and if command "kdialog" is available in the path,
the Qt/KDE file chooser is used;
- otherwise, if the GTK library is available at run-time,
the GTK file chooser is used;
- otherwise, the FLTK file chooser is used.
In addition, when Fl::OPTION_FNFC_USES_GTK is off, the FLTK file chooser
is always used.
src/print_button.cxx: "Print front window" implementation (new file)
This is compiled and activated if USE_PRINT_BUTTON is defined.
The feature can be fine controlled by environment variable
'FLTK_PRINT_BUTTON' (see docs in source file).
The new function fl_write_png() was moved to its own file and is now
publicly available ("exported") so other programs can use it.
This function was used in fluid to write a window screenshot (.png)
together with a template (.fl) to preferences storage.
The fluid version and other values in .fl files are written as float
values which means that locale settings apply since we enabled the
locale with "setlocale()".
Update the "rebuild" target in fluid and src folders to update
the fluid (.fl) files and related {.cxx|.h} files.
- raise minimum CMake version from 2.6.3 to 3.2.3 (Jun 01, 2015)
- indent all CMake files according to the CMP (2 col.)
- refactor FLTK version number definitions and usage
- unify CMake and autoconf/configure variable names:
- FL_VERSION -> FLTK_VERSION
- FL_MAJOR_VERSION -> FLTK_VERSION_MAJOR
- etc. for _MINOR_ and _PATCH_, respectively
- note: this does not affect FL_VERSION etc. in source code
- generate "export headers" for all libraries (experimental: OFF)
- port some forgotten goodies from branch-1.3 to master
- merge and improve macro 'create_example' (WIP)
- remove "temporary" options and code for older CMake versions
- include and use 'GenerateExportHeader' (experimental, WIP: OFF)
- note: created header files are not yet used
- build only *one* DLL with Visual Studio (tested, works)
- similar to the bundled IDE projects in 1.3.x
- add some dynamically linked test/demo programs ('*-shared')
if shared libraries are built (WIP)
- split 'macros.cmake': use one file per macro
- remove obsolete svn '$Id$' tags from all source files
- update .fl files and generated files accordingly
- replace 'http://www.fltk.org' URL's with 'https://...'
- replace bug report URL 'str.php' with 'bugs.php'
- remove trailing whitespace
- fix other whitespace errors flagged by Git
- add and/or fix missing or wrong standard headers
- convert tabs to spaces in all source files
The only relevant code changes are in the fluid/ folder where
some .fl files and other source files were used to generate
the '$Id' headers and footers.
Test programs device and pixmap_browser use these new classes.
Class Fl_SVG_File_Surface can be optionally made non functional using the
--disable-svg configure option or turning off OPTION_USE_SVG in CMake.
Class Fl_EPS_File_Surface can be optionally made non functional using the
--disable-print configure option or turning off OPTION_PRINT_SUPPORT in CMake.
