  • b
    text input even more so
  • s
    i'll just pick the one that requires the least setup 😄
  • b
    electron probably, but thats not c++
  • b
    so raylib maybe
  • s
    i also require a filedialog and the only one I know that uses that is openfl
  • s
    yeah it works but my linux machine isn't particularly happy about it 😄
  • s
    and the openfl file dialog is async 😅
  • b
    use 
    haxe.ui.containers.dialogs.Dialog.selectFile
  • b
    ☝️
  • b
    (still async, but wrapped so you could probably change backends a little easier)
  • s
    how would I await that? I tried doing a 
    while (!finished)
    loop but that freezes app
  • b
    there is no await in haxe
  • b
    you have to use the callback, its async
  • s
    but wxWidgets was async
  • b
    wxwidgets is synchronous
  • s
    oh that's what I meant
  • b
    so yeah, async is more normal for these types of operations, so the haxeui version will use async
  • s
    well I don't think the app breaks
  • b
    and for the wx impl of it, its still sync, but still jus calls that callback when its done
  • b
    > well I don't think the app breaks i dont know what you mean - when?
  • s
    well I need to test it more
  • s
    oh I'm not on git 😅
  • s
    Not sure if this is a hxnodejs or a haxeui problem but 
    electron build/electron
    in dev tools shows a 
    require not defined
    error
  • s
    is my nodejs version too recent?
  • s
    Copy code
    [bulby@bulby-g707 GorillaModManager]$ node --version
v17.3.0
  • s
    Does 
    component.disposeComponent
    destroy all children? From what I understand it only removes the children
  • s
    nvm
  • s
    the dispose arg is ture
  • b
    are you setting 
    nodeIntegration
    ?
  • b
    generally you shouldnt really be disposing of components yourself, generally you should just do 
    parent.removeComponent(theThingThatWillBeDisposed)
