June 14, 2013

[audio:http://www.yourdomain.com/path/to/your_mp3_file.mp3] Wikipedia about Promises: In computer science, future, promise, and delay refer to constructs used for synchronizing in some concurrent programming languages. They describe an object that acts as a proxy for a result that is initially unknown, usually because the computation of its value is yet incomplete. The use of promises can greatly simplify […]

Desktop applications with Haxe and Waxe – Part 8: Adding a MessageDialog

October 19, 2012

In Waxe version 1.0.1, there’s no MessageDialog implementation, so we have to create one ourselves. This requires that we have the wxWidgets-2.9.3 source code and that we have compiled the needed obj files from that. (I’ll describe that process later, in part 7…) In short, this involves the following steps: Adding the wxMessageDialog implementation to […]

Multi platform Music notation with Haxe NME – part 1 – Goals

September 6, 2012

I’ve been working on solutions for music notation for a long time. It all started in the mid 90-s when I had the opportunity to write a book about sight-singing for choir singers. For this I had to produce hundreds of music examples, and I needed a way to get them in an editable vector […]

We start with an empty directory, and add the following MenuTest.hx… …and the following MenuTest.nmml: Go ahead and compile with > haxelib run nme test MenuTest.nmml neko (For compiling to c++/windows target, check Part […]

Desktop applications with Haxe and Waxe – Part 4: Sizers

May 21, 2012

One of the fundamental concepts of wxWidgets is “sizers” – utility classes that are very useful for building a working user interface. The following article is heavily based on this one: What do these sizer things do? that can be found via the wxWidgets tutorials page. All credits to Brian Victor, the original orirginator! So, […]

Desktop applications with Haxe and Waxe – Part 3: Adding a missing event handler

May 19, 2012

In part 2, we created a simple HelloWaxe application with a static text field and a quit button. Now, let’s handle some text dynamically. We start by adding a text control (wx.TextCtrl) to our HelloWaxe.hx. Now it should look something like this: Compiling and running should give the following app: What about some interaction with […]
