PureBasic - Gadget

Overview

The Gadgets in PureBasic (in other languages also called "controls" or "widgets") are a generic name for all the interface components: button, combobox, listview, panels, ... This library is OS independent and uses the real OS Graphical User Interface (GUI) components.

Before using gadgets there will be normally opened a window first, furthermore there will be often used menus, toolbars and statusbars when creating graphical user interfaces.

The functions that create a new gadget return the new gadget number (called #Gadget in this library) if #PB_Any was used to create the gadget. If a static number was given to identify the gadget instead of #PB_Any, then the functions return the OS identifier for the created Gadget. These OS identifiers (or also called handles) can be used for other PureBasic functions, as well for WinAPI functions like SendMessage_() etc. Look at the chapter Handles and Numbers in the reference manual for more information. If you want to create GUI dialogs with automatic layout support take a look at the dialog library.
