<h1>NXWidgets</h1> |
|
<p> |
|
In order to better support NuttX based platforms, a special graphical userinterface has been created called NXWidgets. |
|
NXWidgets is written in C++ and integrates seamlessly with the NuttX <a href="NXGraphicsSubsystem.html">NX graphics subsystem</a> in order to provide graphic objects, or "widgets," in the NX Graphics Subsystem |
|
</p> |
|
<p> |
|
Some of the features of NXWidgets include: |
|
</p> |
|
<ul> |
|
<li><b>Conservative C++</b>. |
|
NXWidgets is written entirely in C++ but using only selected "embedded friendly" C++ constructs that are fully supported under NuttX. |
|
No additional C++ support libraries are required. |
|
</li> |
|
<li><b>NX Integration</b>. |
|
NXWidgets integrate seamlessly with the <a href="NXGraphicsSubsystem.html">NX graphics subsystem</a>. |
|
Think of the X server under Linux … the NX graphics system is like a tiny X server that provides windowing under NuttX. |
|
By adding NXWidgets, you can support graphics objects like buttons and text boxes in the NX windows and toolbars. |
|
</li> |
|
<li><b>Small Footprint</b>. |
|
NXWidgets is tailored for use MCUs in embedded applications. |
|
It is ideally suited for mid- and upper-range of most MCU families. |
|
A complete NXWidgets is possible in as little as 40Kb of FLASH and maybe 4Kb of SRAM. |
|
</li> |
|
<li><b>Output Devices</b>. |
|
NXWidgets will work on the high-end frame buffer devices as well as on LCDs connected via serial or parallel ports to a small MCU. |
|
</li> |
|
<li><b>Input Devices</b>. |
|
NXWidgets will accept position and selection inputs from a mouse or a touchscreen. |
|
It will also support character input from a keyboard such as a USB keyboard. |
|
NXWidgets supports on very special widget called CKeypad that will provide keyboard input via an on-screen keypad that can be operated via mouse or touchscreen inputs. |
|
</li> |
|
<li><b>Many Graphic Objects</b>. |
|
Some of the graphic objects supported by NXWidgets include labels, buttons, text boxes, button arrays, check boxes, cycle buttons, images, sliders, scrollable list boxes, progress bars, and more. |
|
</li> |
|
<li><b>DOxygen Documentation</b> |
|
DOxygen documentation is available. |
|
</li> |
|
</ul> |
|
<p> |
|
Note: Many of the fundamental classed in NxWidgets derive from the Antony |
|
Dzeryn's "Woopsi" project: http://woopsi.org/ which also has a BSD style |
|
license. See the COPYING file for details. |

<h1>NXWidgets DOxygen Documentation</h1> |
|
<p> |
|
DOxygen documentation for the NxWidgets-1.0 is now available online at <a href="http://www.nx-engineering.com/nxwidgets_v1_0/">this location</a>. |
