Is my PetMate #Amiga #AmigaOS3 #AmigaOS port a reaction App ? Well I would say it's 20% "reaction" which is only a set of extended class to #BOOPSI object model. Let's not forget BOOPSI is here since OS2.0 and " that gadget class you can extend" is something 100% from commodore (like datatypes that are part of the same system.). So when I extend a gadget like the zoomable canvas where you draw or the character chooser, it doesn't include or depend of anything at all from "reaction". Also when Commodore/Amiga put BOOPSI in place, they tried to keep some sort of retro-compatibility with their previous UI API: "GadTools".... -> (continue next post

oooh !
I’m gonna tell you something super cool, but you have to promise not to tell anyone! 🤫 ... Look at this. ... No you saw nothing. I didn't show you. You keep the secret, alright ? ... Promise it.

Edit... -> OMG it's alive I can read .petmate files and modify.

My #Amiga #Audacity #BOOPSI rewrite, so far. Will do nothing useful for a moment, yet a lot of things are in place, architecture-wise. C89 ,Can compile from gcc2.95 on Amiga. The data and functionalities are indépendant from the UI... track selection just implemented... automatized serialization in any format..., ...features features...

Still in "Proof of concept" of an #Amiga OS3 #Audacity rewrite with a #BOOPSI interface, with hardcore layouts... Went through an unimaginable loaf of problems, BOOPSI is ok i you have 3 buttons or just a list... else face doom. Well, that's my interest: let's *really* make something with it. .. yet guess what ? It looks like I'm finnaly having a stable state with most problematic things resolved (using my own scroll method, with sub layout in it). "Why don't you port WxWidget and auda. ?" Because Wx has, the worst code I've ever seen, and audacity is just a frontend for linux audio libs (no interest). it'll be a frontEnd for Amiga stuffs in 100kb.

First release of my sub-project #BoopsiWizard for generating #AmigaOS3 #Amiga #BOOPSI class and gadgets with code and projects for many compilers, version Beta0.2, yet functionnal.
https://github.com/krabobmkd/boopsiwizard/releases/tag/beta02 ... hopefully also on aminet soon. Seting up a C project for creating a BOOPSI class can be complex, when not judged impossible with compilers not supporting it. Now it's easy.
This project is also open to participation, so anyone can propose additional templates.

I'm back to #coding #Amiga #BOOPSI for #AmigaOS interfaces, I've almost finished a wizard to extends "Gadget classes", thing that is completely lacking since 33 years . One minute to setup a gadget project, with makefiles for 3 compilers instead of ... actually monthes of work ( most compilers won't even support the link mode by default.).

I have an account at the #amiga #amigaos3 #developer #forum, because i'm trying to use some #boopsi ... an old API with absolutely no good examples around. Very hard if not impossible to do very simple things. and like 2 weeks to set up a compiler for the project. Well at least, 34 years after, there's a forum with 3 people on it.
