msgbox 0.1.0

Simple, cross-platform message box GUI library. All it does is to show a message box modal with a OK button, which runs synchronously. All the other jobs stop until the user responds. It runs fine with OpenGL windows already open. It supports multi-platform, and maintains separate dependencies per platform, thus light-weight. - Synchronous Message Modal - Multi-platform (Linux GTK3+ and Windows yet) - Light-weight

Simple, cross-platform message box GUI library.

All it does is to show a message box modal with a OK button, which runs synchronously.

All the other jobs stop until the user responds. It runs fine with OpenGL windows already open.

It supports multi-platform, and maintains separate dependencies per platform, thus light-weight.

I use this library when an error occurs in OpenGL applications with glium.

  • Synchronous Message Modal
  • Multi-platform (Linux GTK3+ and Windows yet)
  • Light-weight

msgbox = "0.1.0"

Platform support

  • Linux with GTK 3+ (Tested on Ubuntu Gnome 16.04)
  • Windows (Tested on Windows 8.1)

Planning to support OS X, but I don't have any devices with it. Contributions are welcome.

Dev Requirements

  • libgtk-3-dev for Ubuntu
  • gtk3-devel for CentOS
  • nothing for Windows

Usage

extern crate msgbox;

fn main() {
    msgbox::create("Hello Title", "Hello World!", msgbox::IconType::INFO);
    msgbox::create("Error", "Error occured at hello_world.rs:5.\nTerminating..", msgbox::IconType::ERROR);
}
