Wayland support

Open dsseng opened this issue 4 years ago • 7 comments

V UI runs on X11 even when Wayland compositor is currently running, causing running of XWayland. I think V UI should support Wayland natively.

It will.

Once glfw dep is removed.

Necrobumping, because it seems as glfw has been removed. (as of https://github.com/vlang/ui/pull/185)

It's still on Xwayland. Just installed V and v install ui to my machine, then trying examples. Compositor: Sway. When Xwayland is stopped V UI demo closes.

there is still no support for waylaynd i guess , i get builder error: 'X11/Xlib.h' not found when i try to compile an example on wyland

It's deeper than just removing an X11 library; All X11 libraries shall be replaced with Wayland ones and all the relevant code rewritten for Wayland. Need some official response from @vlang.

Do I dare ask if there has been any progress the last 1,5 years towards Wayland support?

I wanted to run ved but I cannot stand the poor DPI scaling:

Sokol has a PR for wayland that hasn't been touched in a while (https://github.com/floooh/sokol/pull/425), so presumably when that's merged V UI (and everthing that uses gg) will work on wayland natively
