# haxe-ui
  • r
    I've found some more ways to trigger it. The easiest way is just removing an element from my xml layout and hitting f5 again.
  • b
    sounds like a language server issue, did you see the pins on here that MSGHero has used to mitigate some issues hes had
  • b
    Copy code
    I was having a lot of macro-related compiler errors in haxeui... but I "fixed" it by just disabling the compilation server in VScode
I know it's been brought up before, and it doesn't seem like an easy thing to fix. But man I could not compile twice in a row without an error
In my settings.json, I put "haxe.enableCompilationServer": false and that's it. Hope that helps someone else
Your compiles will be a second slower but you won't waste 30 seconds crashing and restarting the compilation server anyway
And you keep macro'd code completion, since that's a separate thing
  • r
    I need to get in the habit of looking at pins
  • b
    yeah, i never do either to be honest
  • b
    id be interested to know if that fixes things for you
  • b
    omg
  • b
    yeah, updating openfl can be a real pain though... especially as recently it seems to be in a broken state (about app icon generation)
  • b
    lemme check my local git version, i cant remember if i have local fixes in there still
  • b
    OK, so no, actually, i dont have any local changes... which bodes well, im like 75 commits behind though, so i should probably pull latest also, but its always a little hit and miss i find
  • b
    > so i should probably pull latest also im not going to though 😄 - it may all be fine, but it may also break a bunch of stuff (which has happened multiple times previously)... and i dont have the time to drop a morning tracking down a new set of openfl issues 🙂 That said, good luck! Let me know how it goes! (if it goes well for you, ill update... heh heh)
  • b
    (last thing: you might be able to get away with just using git flixel, no idea... ive personally never had any issues with updating it - unless theres a new openfl feature it needs, and it may be the path of least resistance)
  • b
    so, @magnificent-crayon-8615 / @hallowed-forest-58641 , i think this is what im going to go with for the inclusions / exclusions (unless you can foresee any issues):
    Copy code
    xml
    <resources include="*.a" exclude="*.x">
        <include pattern="*.b" />
        <include pattern="*.c" />
        <exclude pattern="*.y" />
        <exclude pattern="*.z" />
        <resource path="assets/icons" prefix="icons" include="*.a" exclude="*.x">
            <include pattern="*.b" />
            <include pattern="*.c" />
            <exclude pattern="*.y" />
            <exclude pattern="*.z" />
        </resource>    
    </resources>
    So the inline ones 
    <resource ... include="*.a" exclude="*.x">
    are really just shortcuts for the child node ones, and the top level ones are ones that apply to all modules, so for example if you wanted to exclude all haxeui-core .css files files, you could put the pattern there
  • b
    Can I create a full-on website with haxeui-hrml the same way I create one normally with js-css-html
  • b
    technically you can, but i dont think its the right tool for the job personally
  • b
    i remember, many moons ago, i started using haxeui to make haxeui.org because it was "cool", and it just looked like a boring application, and i could have made it look like it does now, with some effort, or i could just slap together some html (which is the route i went down)
  • b
    i am currently evaluating haxeui-html5 to do that to replace some GWT stuff
  • b
    web app type thing?
  • b
    mostly data-entry and management guis
  • b
    yeah, i mean thats slightly different, thats a web app which i think haxeui is fine / perfect for... but for web sites, non-application'y ones, i dont think its ideal - completely doable ofc, just not ideal imo
  • b
    that was importatn to have it work in a div container
  • b
    because the "outside" is generated via spring-boot + thymeleaf
  • b
    gotcha, and little "UIs" to do things here and there
  • b
    yah sort of
  • b
    and not having to do angular (or ext-js, isomorphic/smart-gwt) is a real usecase
  • h
    The drop down menu looks amazing! Definitely give a lot more options now. About the inclusions / exclusions I don't see any problem , it look very convenient to use.
  • b
    ok, cool, so with this user module:
    Copy code
    xml
<module>
    <resources>
        <exclude pattern="haxeui-core/styles/.*.png" />
        <exclude pattern="haxeui-core/styles/.*.css" />
        <resource path="assets/icons" prefix="icons">
            <exclude pattern="Status_Unavailable.png" />
            <exclude pattern="some file that i dont want to be included.txt" />
        </resource>    
    </resources>
</module>
    and with the haxe defines 
    module_resolution_verbose
    and 
    resource_resolution_verbose
    you get:
  • b
    -
    means the resource wasnt added (and why) and 
    +
    means it was added (and why)
  • b
    ive also added these conditional exclusions to the core module.xml:
  • b
    Copy code
    xml
        <exclude pattern="haxeui-core/styles/.*.png" if="haxeui_no_theme" />
        <exclude pattern="haxeui-core/styles/.*.css" if="haxeui_no_theme" />
