Crate window

Window storage and interfacing traits.

The Window trait is the minimum interface required for event loop. All backends usually support this trait.

The AdvancedWindow trait is the maximum interface that can be provided, while still staying consistent between backends. Not all backends implement AdvancedWindow; check your backend’s documentation to see whether it implements this trait.

The WindowSettings structure is the preferred way of building new windows in Piston. It uses the BuildFromWindowSettings trait, which backends implement to handle window creation and setup.

The OpenGLWindow trait is used to provide low-level access to OpenGL through the abstract Piston API.

The Size structure is used throughout Piston to store window sizes. It implements some conversion traits for convenience.

Structs

• Api
  Stores graphics API version.
• NoWindow
  A window without user interface, often used in server event loops.
• Position
  Structure to store the window position.
• Size
  Structure to store the window size.
• UnsupportedGraphicsApiError
  An error for when a graphics API is unsupported.
• WindowSettings
  Settings structure for window behavior.

Traits

• AdvancedWindow
  Trait representing a window with the most features that are still generic.
• BuildFromWindowSettings
  Constructs a window from a WindowSettings object.
• OpenGLWindow
  Trait for OpenGL specific operations on a window.
• Window
  Trait representing the minimum requirements for defining a window.

Type Aliases

• ProcAddress
  The type of an OpenGL function address.
