is there any samples ?

[sonygod]

are there any samples?

how to use haxeui with heaps?

[ianharrigan]

As fair as i know development has stalled on haxeui-heaps, and honestly, im not 100% what state its in as ive never used it. Eventually it would be nice to breathe some life into the project, but at this stage i honestly just dont know. @aW4KeNiNG - do you have a moment? Is haxeui-heaps in a usable state? I forget how it left off. :)

[BrodyB]

Chiming in here as I'm stumbling into Heaps dev and would also really like to use HaxeUI. Any samples or examples of how to setup the project to use this would be really helpful!

[ianharrigan]

Funnily enough im actually writing docs at the moment, not on heaps specifically, but on all the backends - so that includes heaps.

For now though is there something you are having issues with? You should just be able to do:

Toolkit.init();
var b = new Button();
b.text = "Test";
Screen.instance.addComponent(b);

That should be all you need, if that doesnt work then let me know as there might be some additional steps (i cant remember them off hand though)

Cheers,
Ian

[BrodyB]

Thanks for the help!

I'm a bit new to Haxe development, in general, so I'm also not sure what the best practice is for incorporating this repo's contents into my project structure. Should that be handled through haxelib?

[ianharrigan]

Yeah, haxelib is the usual method, though there are other ways... you can install the official versions with:

haxelib install haxeui-core
haxelib install haxeui-heaps

or the development versions with:

haxelib git haxeui-core https://github.com/haxeui/haxeui-core
haxelib git haxeui-heaps https://github.com/haxeui/haxeui-heaps

The development versions will likely have more fixes, but may also create regresssions, but you can flip between the two with ease.

Then in your .hxml file (im assuming you are building using .hxml?) you can add these lines:

-lib haxeui-core
-lib haxeui-heaps

And that should be it... if you run into any troubles, let me know.

Cheers,
Ian

This is really helpful, thank you!!

Hi @ianharrigan

[ianharrigan]

So, i think you need to create a "res" folder in your project root... something like that, and when you say -D resourcesPath=DIR the DIR should point to an actual directory (ie, not actually "DIR" - unless you create a "DIR" directory ofc)

@ianharrigan
Thanks ,I added -D resourcesPath=mySrc, and created a new folder mySrc in the root of the project
Now the second error in prev post is gone
But it comes with new error :

Again if don't import haxe.ui.Toolkit; no above error
P.S. Haxe 4.1.4 , hashlink 1.12.0 (github master) , heaps 1.9.1 ,haxeui-core 1.2.3 ,haxeui-heaps 1.3.1
Here is the compile.hxml :

-cp src
-lib haxeui-core
-lib haxeui-heaps
-lib heaps
-lib hlsdl
-D resourcesPath=mySrc
-hl main.hl
-main Main
-debug

[ianharrigan]

I think that maybe your heaps is out of date, ive been told to always use the git version. But not sure if that is the error to be honest. Can you try out git heaps and see?

I think maybe haxeui-heaps is out of date (instead of heaps)
After I install git version of haxeui-heaps , it works now

Toolkit.init({root: s2d,manualUpdate: false});
Screen.instance.addComponent(new Button()).text = "Test";

Thanks for your help, really appreciated !

[ianharrigan]

ah, right... cool... other way round then :)

Weird though, i thought i made a haxelib release with all the latest changes, ill have to double check. Thanks!

[robinp]

A data point:

Haxe 4.2.1  (Linux / nix)
haxeui-core: [1.4.0]
haxeui-heaps: [1.4.0]
heaps: [git]

This makes the -js target work. And with some patching for nix, -hl out/main.hl + hl out/main.hl also works (see NixOS/nixpkgs#168289 for nixy details)

[ianharrigan]

You almost certainly want to be using git version of haxeui-core and haxeui-heaps - the haxelib versions have yet again managed to get woefully out of date - i going to rerelease soon (tm) and also see if i can work out a way to release more often (ie, start actually using minor versions again, 1.4.6, etc)
