pyFLTK is a wrapper for the Fast-Light Toolkit - a cross platform GUI library. The wrapper also includes a program to convert the FLTK GUI designer output to Python code.

The library is available at: http://fltk.netpedia.net/

Bowser's now have preliminary data support, flconvert (Fluid GUI Builder to Python) is now a program and supports scoped identifiers.

Hello World with a Cancel Button looks like this:

from fltk import * import sys

def theCancelButtonCallback(ptr): sys.exit(0)

window = Fl_Window(100, 100, 200, 90, sys.argv[0]) button = Fl_Button(9,20,180,50,"Hello World") button.callback(theCancelButtonCallback) window.end() window.show(len(sys.argv), sys.argv) Fl.run()

Recent Changes: ---------------------- 1/11/00 KPD completed install-python option

1/8/00 KPD fixed test/boxtype.py, test/PyAppWithGUI added to INSTALL file

1/7/00 KPD added flconvert support for declarations and classes added ifdef Python sentries to browser changes added demo runner test/demos.py fixed browser data bug

1/6/00 KPD added data support to browser, still needs some work to handle arbritary script object types

1/4/00 KPD updated README reorganized notes added test/PyAppWithGUI changed fluid parser to allow scoped indentifiers

12/29/99 KPD fixed Python Menu callback bug - menus weren't using the new CallBackStruct fixed MS-Windows build fixed function return values in src/Fl_Wrapper in swig/py_timeout.i: MS VCC couldn't handle pointer initializaition, had to change to assignment removed default paramter value from contrib/Check_Browser.cc removed test/arc.py because it can't work with the current system - no way to subclass a widget in Python yet

11/19/99 KPD fixed Python Fl_Widget callbacks to make them work with data
