# Native UI library for Go
### THIS PACKAGE IS UNDER ACTIVE DEVELOPMENT. It can be used; the API is stable enough at this point, but keep in mind there may still be crashes and API changes, as suggestions are always open. If you can help, please do! Run `./test` to build a test binary `test/test` which runs a (mostly) feature-complete UI test. Run `./d32 ./test` to build a 32-bit version (you will need a cgo-enabled 32-bit go environment, and I have only tested this on Mac OS X).

For Windows targets, you will need a cgo-enabled windows/386 *AND* windows/amd64 to regenerate the autogenerated zconstants_windows_*.go files (cross-compiling multiple cgo-enabled targets in Go isn't possible yet; I have a CL pending that will make it so; native Windows targets should be able to work fine, but I haven't tested it).
### UPDATE 12 March 2014: Windows 2000 is no longer supported [as it is no longer supported by Go](https://codereview.appspot.com/74790043).

ui aims to run on all supported versions of supported platforms. To be more precise, the system requirements are:
* Windows: Windows XP or newer. The Windows backend uses package `syscall` and calls Windows DLLs directly, so does not rely on cgo.
* Note: it does, however, rely on a pregenerated set of constants based on the Windows header files. I locally build a new one each time and these are included in the repo as zconstants_windows_*.go; you can rebuild them yourself with the included tools/windowsconstgen.go (see test.sh).
* Mac OS X: Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) or newer. Objective-C code is used directly for maximum portability, and thus this uses cgo.
* Note: you will need Go 1.3 or newer (so until it is released, [go tip](http://tip.golang.org/doc/install/source#head)) for this verison, as it uses Objective-C.
* Other Unixes: The Unix backend uses GTK+, and thus cgo. It requires GTK+ 3.4 or newer; for Ubuntu this means 12.04 LTS (Precise Pangolin) at minimum. Check your distribution.
