Can we have a OpenFolderDialog()?

[SimonSchubert]

I found OpenFileDialog very useful and would like to have the same for folders. If you don't have time for it I can try to dig into it.

[msink]

It have to be implemented in upstream C libui See andlabs/libui#190

[SimonSchubert]

Ok that doesn't look too promising. Thanks for the quick reply.

[msink]

Well, we can switch to building libui.a from sources on Travis/Appveyor, then it will be possible to implement things like this. Not sure that it's good idea, but as upsteam development seems to be frozen...

But then we will need to test it on all supported platforms - and I currently do not know how.

[SimonSchubert]

Any news?

To be honest I have zero experience with Travis/Appveyor yet. But I would like to have look into it if you could give me a hint where to start.

I can do testing on Osx and Linux.

[msink]

Will try to do something, but only after New Year, I'm afraid.

[msink]

Ok, please test that it works in "controlgallery" sample on Linus and Mac, on Windows I tested myself. If works as expected - will switch to that version. https://github.com/msink/libui/releases/tag/alpha4.1-openfolder

[SimonSchubert]

Great news! I will test and report tomorrow morning(beeing on a day trip today).

[SimonSchubert]

Update: I could get it building by setting "SET(CMAKE_OSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET 10.9)" inside the CMakeLists.txt before "project(libui)". How to proceed now?

I failed to build the project on osx.

Software: cmake 3.12.3 xcode 10.1 OS X 10.9 command line developer tool: 2354 (xcode-select --install)

What I did: mkdir build cd build cmake .. (cmake VERBOSE=1 -std=libc++ ..)

Do you have any hint how to succeed? I keep trying but I still have a lot to learn in this area.

[msink]

You do not have to build it - it was built on Travis CI. Just download examples-alpha4.1+openfolder-darwin-amd64-static.tgz on Mac or examples-alpha4.1+openfolder-linux-amd64-static.tgz on Linux, unpack it and check that controlgallery works as expected.

[SimonSchubert]

Of course Travis CI did the build, I should have known better.

Awesome, it works like a charm on OS X 10.9 and Linux Manjaro Gnome 18.0.1 64Bit. Tested: Open File/Open Folder/Save File

[msink]

Done, version 0.1.1 published to jcenter.

[SimonSchubert]

Thanks, I could succesfully use it in a private project. I'm also working on another kotlin native + libui project which I will make public on github soon. I will let you know.

Also: I'm happy to add screenshots for Linux+Mac examples next week.
