The included help is in Chinese but the code examples are readable.

I added a complete JavaScript and flash compatible Browser control.

nice binding, you saved me a lot of time!

I think I'd better print your fb bi file and C header file side by side to learn

[D.J.Peters]

I changed ~1000 commands to use the FreeBASIC Unicode wString now !

for example for numbers replace Str() with wStr() like here: XAdTable_AddItemText(hAdapter, "Item-" & wStr(i))

Joshy

file ComboBox.bas :

Code: Select all

#include once "xcgui.bi"
sub InitXCGUI constructor
  XInitXCGUI()
  ' disable debug file output: "xcgui_debug.txt"
  XC_EnableDebugFile(false)
end sub

sub ExitXCGUI destructor
 XExitXCGUI()
end sub

var xWin = XWnd_Create(0, 0, 300, 200, NULL, 0, XC_WINDOW_STYLE_DEFAULT)
XBtn_SetType(XBtn_Create(3,3,20,20,"X",xWin),button_type_close)
var hComboBox = XComboBox_Create(20, 40, 120, 20, xWin)
XRichEdit_SetText(hComboBox, "123")
var hAdapter = XAdTable_Create()
XComboBox_BindAdapter(hComboBox, hAdapter)

XAdTable_AddColumn(hAdapter, "name")
for i as integer = 0 to 999
  XAdTable_AddItemText(hAdapter, "Item-" & wstr(i))
next
XWnd_ShowWindow(xWin, SW_SHOW)
XRunXCGUI()

is there a wke example?

[D.J.Peters]

Code: Select all

#include once "wkeBrowser.bi"
sub InitXCGUI constructor
  XInitXCGUI()
  XC_EnableDebugFile(false)
  XWeb_Init()
  print "XWeb version: " & *XWeb_GetVersionString()
end sub
sub ExitXCGUI destructor
  XWeb_UnInit()
  XExitXCGUI()
end sub

var xWin = XWnd_Create(0,0,800,600,"Im a window title")
if (xWin) then
  var closeBtn = XBtn_Create(3,3,20,20,"X",xWin)  
  XBtn_SetType(closeBtn, button_type_close)
  
  var Browser = XWeb_Create(8,3*8,800-2*8,600-4*8, xWin)
  if Browser then XWeb_LoadUrl(Browser,"http://freebasic.net/forum")
  
  XWnd_ShowWindow(xWin, SW_SHOW)
  XRunXCGUI()
end if

Is there any information on the license of that library? Unfortunately I'm quite lost on that webpage as it's all in Chinese.

there's a text file in the doc folder at https://github.com/CodyGuo/xcgui , Google translation follows

Thanks srvaldez. That makes this thing a bit less interesting. So in short for the free version it prohibits commercial use and requires to refer to their website and post a screenshot of the application on their forums (which could be hard because it's also in chinese) (if I understood that translated license correctly).

Hello everyone, I contacted the author of XCGUI and helped him translating the license file into English. You can read the full one at http://www.xcgui.com/freeDown.php. I also upload the license files (Chinese and English) to https://github.com/retsyo/xcgui_lib

Since English is not my native language so please tell me if there is something not clear or wrong in the License.txt

On what you consider mostly, the answer is in section 2 and 3

2. License for free version
The 32 bits XCGUI dynamic library(XCGUI.DLL) is only free for personal user without any technology support. The free version does not apply to enterprise user.

3. Term of use for free version
You must supply a copy of this License with your application; or give prominent notice in the About/Help section to indicate that you are using XCGUI(http://ww.xcgui.com)

And you can purchase 64bits DLL, 32/64 bits static library, GUI Designer, Source code, support too, none of them are free.

I know nothing about web controls
I heard that many GUI applications looks like native looking, but they are exactly using web widgets to render HTML.

And I found http://tabulator.info which presents nice table, so can it be used with WKE?
