We seem to have been assuming that it was false by default, but in SDL 2, it is true by default (planned to be false in SDL 3, apparently). It can cause weird behavior like IME popups appearing when holding down keys (something commonly done by users playing games, so we don't want that!). We want setTextInputEnabled(true) to happen only when an OpenFL TextField (or anything else that accepts text input) receives focus, and then cleared again when focus is lost. This does not disable regular keyboard input. It is specifically related to what SDL considers text input, which is different, even if it uses the keyboard.
Lime
Lime is a flexible, lightweight layer for Haxe cross-platform developers.
Lime supports native, Flash and HTML5 targets with unified support for:
- Windowing
- Input
- Events
- Audio
- Render contexts
- Network access
- Assets
Lime does not include a renderer, but exposes the current context:
- Cairo
- Canvas
- DOM
- Flash
- GL
The GL context is based upon the WebGL standard, implemented for both OpenGL and OpenGL ES as needed.
Lime provides a unified audio API, but also provides access to OpenAL for advanced audio on native targets.
License
Lime is free, open-source software under the MIT license.
Installation
First install the latest version of Haxe.
Development Builds
When there are changes, Lime is built nightly. Builds are available for download here.
To install a development build, use the "haxelib local" command:
haxelib local lime-haxelib.zip
Building from Source
-
Clone the Lime repository, as well as the submodules:
haxelib git lime https://github.com/openfl/lime -
Install required dependencies:
haxelib install format haxelib install hxp -
Copy the ndll directory from the latest Haxelib release, or see project/README.md for details about building native binaries.
-
After any changes to the tools or lime/tools directories, rebuild from source:
lime rebuild tools -
To switch away from a source build:
haxelib set lime [version number]
Sample
You can build a sample Lime project with the following commands:
lime create HelloWorld
cd HelloWorld
lime test neko
You can also list other projects that are available using "lime create".
Targets
Lime currently supports the following targets:
lime test windows
lime test mac
lime test linux
lime test android
lime test ios
lime test html5
lime test flash
lime test air
lime test neko
lime test hl
Desktop builds are currently designed to be built on the same host OS
