Detailed Description

Interface for the plugin's gui functionality.

As detailed in the FX Plugin tutorial, users can optionally implement this (or descendents), and must implement ISharedState, IEngine and IPluginEntry, and register their subclasses with the framework to create an audio plugin. These will also be created if using the provided create.py script.

This interface serves as the the barebones gui hooks for implementing a framework of your choosing with the framework, and doesn't provide any functionality out of the box. If you'd like to use a webview gui, take a look at WebviewEditor or WebviewBase instead.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

~IEditor()

virtual mostly_harmless::core::IEditor::~IEditor ( )

virtualdefaultnoexcept

Virtual destructor.

Member Function Documentation

destroy()

virtual void mostly_harmless::core::IEditor::destroy ( )

pure virtual

Called when the editor is closed.

Implemented in mostly_harmless::gui::WebviewBase.

getSize()

virtual void mostly_harmless::core::IEditor::getSize ( std::uint32_t * width, std::uint32_t * height )

pure virtual

Queries the editor about the size of its window. Initially, the parent window's size depends entirely on this call.

Parameters

width	A pointer to the width, to set.
height	A pointer to the height, to set.

Implemented in mostly_harmless::gui::WebviewBase.

hide()

virtual void mostly_harmless::core::IEditor::hide ( )

pure virtual

Called when the editor should hide.

Implemented in mostly_harmless::gui::WebviewBase.

initialise()

virtual void mostly_harmless::core::IEditor::initialise ( )

pure virtual

Called immediately after the gui has been created - use this to perform any post-creation initialisation.

Implemented in mostly_harmless::gui::WebviewBase, and mostly_harmless::gui::WebviewEditor.

onParamEvent()

virtual void mostly_harmless::core::IEditor::onParamEvent ( events::ProcToGuiParamEvent event )

pure virtual

Called via the internal gui dispatch thread when a new parameter event is sent by the host - use this hook to sync the changes with the gui!

Implemented in mostly_harmless::gui::WebviewBase, and mostly_harmless::gui::WebviewEditor.

setParent()

virtual void mostly_harmless::core::IEditor::setParent ( void * parentHandle )

pure virtual

Use this function to add your custom window to the parent view.

Parameters

parentHandle

A void* to the parent window's handle - the actual type is platform specific (HWND on Windows, NSView on macOS).

Implemented in mostly_harmless::gui::WebviewBase.

setSize()

virtual void mostly_harmless::core::IEditor::setSize ( std::uint32_t width, std::uint32_t height )

pure virtual

Called when the size of the parent window has been changed.

Parameters

width	The new parent width.
height	The new parent height.

Implemented in mostly_harmless::gui::WebviewBase.

show()

virtual void mostly_harmless::core::IEditor::show ( )

pure virtual

Called when the editor should show.

Implemented in mostly_harmless::gui::WebviewBase.
