AG_Intro(3)

DESCRIPTION

Agar is a cross-platform GUI system and framework. It provides a programming platform and a standard toolkit of widgets from which graphical applications can be built.

AGAR-CORE

The ag_core library is Agar's non-graphical platform and utility library. It implements the base object system, events / virtual functions and timers. It provides cross-platform interfaces to OS services such as filesystems, kernel-based events, timers and threads. To use this library alone (without GUI), link against agar-core-config --libs.

COMMON MANUAL SECTIONS

Manual pages are provided for most Agar object classes. Some sections are standard throughout the documentation:
INHERITANCE HIERARCHYList of inherited parent classes (see AG_Object(3) for details on inheritance).
EVENTSThe list of events defined (or raised) by this object (see AG_Event(3) for details on events).
STRUCTURE DATAList of public structure members which are safe to access directly. Multithreaded applications must use AG_ObjectLock(3) prior to accessing this data (although in some contexts, such as inside event handler routines, objects can be presumed locked; see AG_Threads(3) for details).
