Function assume_standalone_in_process 

Source 
pub unsafe fn assume_standalone_in_process()
Expand description

Assumes the current baseview library is the only one running in this process.

This allows baseview to change some platform-specific settings for greater compatibility. Which settings are actually changed is documented below for information, but is not to be considered stable. They are considered an implementation detail.

§Safety

This function must not be called in the following cases:

  • The current binary is a plugin that can be loaded into an external host;
  • Multiple baseview versions are present in the final binary;
  • baseview is being used in conjunction with other platform windowing libraries (e.g. winit, SDL, etc.);
  • The current process may host other plugins that need to interact with the platform’s GUI capabilities.

§Platform-specific considerations

This function is currently a no-op on macOS and X11. On Windows, this sets the process’ DPI awareness setting to the latest option supported by the currently running system (up to PerMonitorAwareV2).
