Projects using osdialog
osdialog was designed for VCV Rack, but it can be useful for many other applications. If you know of any projects using osdialog, it would be much appreciated to post a URL. This helps me understand the needs, wants, and priorities for osdialog.
I want to create Haxe/Openfl bindings for this lib. This will allow you to create cross-platform applications easier. But I don't know will it be popular...
I notice that VCV uses osdialog, and several third party modules link against it. In general should VCV modules feel free to uses it? In an ideal world, should VCV modules that build against osdialog rerpodoce the licenst in their LICENSE-dist.txt files?
Hi @AndrewBelt , I've just created a Nim wrapper for osdialog, I thought I'd let you know. https://github.com/johnnovak/nim-osdialog
I used your osdialog in my project/homework assignment when I wanted to port it to Linux: https://github.com/GalGR/CG-Software-Renderer_linux I found about your project through this answer on stackoverflow: https://stackoverflow.com/a/56066888/8485619 I only tested the zenity and gtk backends, but both of them worked fine. This project is exactly what I was looking for when I stumbled onto your solution on github, and I thank you for that :)
Hey there, I'm using your osdialog in my final project on my CS Degree.
I'm on Windows 11 with the Visual Studio 2022 and I'm having a problem with it.
I'm getting a #error = no architecture on the winnt.h file. Everywhere I look into a way of fixing it is telling me to not import it, but from what I see in your files you don't. Do you know anyway of fixing it?
Best regards, Diogo Simões
Hello,
I'm using osdialog in my Master's project in computer science, a software that helps converting a mesh to a point cloud (C++, OpenGL, GLFW, ImGui). Initially I was dealing with winapi to open dialogs, and I wanted to use gtk api (because the project must work on Linux), but I couldn't make it work because of some gtk main loop I had trouble with. So I'm using your library on Linux and I'm sticking with winapi for Windows platform (maybe I'll switch with osdialog for windows too some day).
I would say it would definitely help to have a little "how-to" section in your readme, or a mini wiki, I don't know, because I don't find the documentation enough to use your library easily.
Anyway thanks a lot for your work !
@Hypooxanthine What specific questions did you have when learning osdialog? I think everything's documented in the header file.
