Looking for some guidance on GUI to use with Euphoria. I know this potentially opens a can of worms I've looked at some of the options: JAPI, ARWEN, EUGUI etc.. each of which seem to have a limited set of controls. So the more complete libraries seem to be Win32LiB, WX and IUP.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks
| Library | Platforms | Beginners | Advanced | Extendable |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| IUP | Windows Linux |
Yes | No? | I think so |
| Win32Lib | Windows | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| WX | Windows Linux OS X |
Yes | Yes | Not sure |
With respect to wxEuphoria. It also runs on FreeBSD. I do not have OSX, though it should be possible to get wxEuphoria up and working, since wxWidgets runs there.
As far as being extensible, all of wxWidgets is not wrapped. It's relatively easy to wrap new stuff. Some knowledge of C is required. It's also possible to extend wxWidgets generally, though of course, now you're talking about a lot of C being required.
