Octave-FLTK reaches 0.1

Octave-FLTK is a language binding to FLTK toolkit thats crossplatform and gives you a simple API for working GUI's in C++. Now Octave-FLTK enables ou to write FLTK code in Octave itself!

Features of Octave-FLTK

  1. FLTK-1.1.6 library accessible from Octave-FLTK.
  2. Widgets Inheritance works like in C++. [Ofcourse creating new classes, is not possible], but calling parent types, is made like in C++.
  3. Widgets & Enumerations are accesible from C++
  4. Callbacks are possible to Octave code
  5. Many widgets for use now
  6. API pattern, in final state.
  7. 5 Examples in the ./test/ directory.

Installation

  1. Untar & cd ./octave-fltk-0.1/src
  2. make
  3. cd ./octave-fltk-0.1/test/
  4. #run any of the examples. [hello.m, button.m labels.m etc]

TODO

To make Octave-FLTK a sucess, we need to
  1. Write more examples in ./test/ directory
  2. Write / Fix bindings code for skipped widgets in ./src/ directory.

If youre really interested in making this work complete, please join the Octave-GTK-Devel lists , to carry on discussions. Join Here.

Cheers Muthu.
