  • o
    Neko license wise seems bit mess
  • o
    HL is MIT
  • o
    GTK is LGPL ?
  • s
    yeah
  • s
    but it's being used as a lib so 🤷
  • o
  • o
    that is MIT maybe we need to hook HL up to rust!
  • p
    LGPL is fine to be used in non-LGPL code, as long as the LGPL code stays in a dynamic library.
  • b
    also this wouldnt become "part" of haxeui, it could be used as a fallback for Dialogs.selectFile if you project included the systools lib...
  • b
    ie, a
    Copy code
    haxe
#if systools
... systools stuff
#else
MessageBox("not implemented");
#end
  • b
    so i think that makes any licensing woes the app authors problem? (not that i know much of anything about licences tbf)
  • s
    👍
  • s
    i think you are also using it as an api so 🤷
  • s
    reminds me, can you force overwrite classes? if I were to make a lib that used this it would not work for a backend with an implementation already
  • s
    so it can’t be a static lib?
  • b
    You could shadow: https://github.com/haxeui/haxeui-core/blob/master/haxe/ui/backend/SelectFileDialogImpl.hx or https://github.com/haxeui/haxeui-core/blob/master/haxe/ui/backend/SelectFileDialogBase.hx but that would also mean that your lib has to be included after haxeui (which is probably likely), i think it would make more sense for 
    SelectFileDialogBase
    to have a 
    #if systools
    check and use it there if its available
  • s
    heaps backend on a hidpi screen is unreadable
  • b
  • b
    -D highdpi
    maybe?
  • s
    that does nothing. however I know that non qt apps can have interesting scaling
  • b
    yeah, my guess its a heaps issue, though i would have thought it was a "non issue"...
  • b
    although actually, that issue is still open, so
  • b
    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
  • s
    perhaps it’s an sdl thing? i would prefer directx because that’s what my window manager uses
  • s
    has someone made a haxeui material thing yet?
  • s
    someone really ought to make a windows target that doesn't look ugly
  • r
    Like UWP?
  • s
    yeah but haxeui
  • p
    The user needs to be able to swap out the LGPL code. That can be done using a dynamic library, or providing either the source code, or the object files (so that the user can relink against a different version of the LGPL code)
  • s
    oh so if you open source a repo that depends on an LGPL lib it's ok??
