The Window

The Window is the root of all things. The Window class controls access to Stages, the Compositor, and asset loading.

Signals

The following signals are available for the Window class:

• signal<void ()> signal_frame_started();
• signal<void ()> signal_frame_finished();
• signal<void ()> signal_pre_swap();
• signal<void (double)> signal_step();
• signal<void ()> signal_shutdown();

Platform Information

The Window class has a platform property which is for platform-specific functionality and information. It has the following attributes:

• Platform::name() - Returns the name of the platform. One of "linux", "windows", "darwin", "android" or "dreamcast"
• Platform::sleep_for_us(int32_t) - Sleeps for the specified number of microseconds. This is mainly because the Dreamcast compiler doesn't support std::this_thread::sleep_for(...).
