\page interface_intro Introduction to the Interface Kit.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The Interface Kit holds all the classes you'll need to develop a GUI.
|
||
|
|
Building on the messaging facilities provided by the Application Kit,
|
||
|
|
the Inteface Kit can be used to create a responsive and attractive graphical
|
||
|
|
user interface.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The most important class in the Interface Kit is the BView class, which
|
||
|
|
handles drawing and user interaction. Pointer and keyboard events are
|
||
|
|
processed in this class.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Another important class is the BWindow class, which holds BViews and makes
|
||
|
|
them visibile to the user. The BWindow class also handles BView focusing
|
||
|
|
and BMessage dispatching, among other things.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A new addition Haiku has added over the BeOS API is the Layout API, which
|
||
|
|
is based around the BLayoutItem and BLayout classes. These classes will
|
||
|
|
take care of making sure all your GUI widgets end up where you want them,
|
||
|
|
with enough space to be useful. You can start learning the Layout API
|
||
|
|
by reading the \link layout_intro introduction \endlink.
