Examples

These examples demonstrate the main features of SixtyFPS and how to use them in different language environments.

Demo	.60 Design	Rust Source	C++ Source	Description
printerdemo	ui.60	main.rs	main.cpp	A fictional user interface for the touch screen of a printer
gallery	gallery.60	main.rs	main.cpp	A gallery of different widgets

Example	Source File	.60 Design	Description
cpptest	main.cpp	hello.60	A minimal example to show a .60 design in a window.
rusttest2	main.rs	hello.60	A minimal example to show a .60 design in a window.

Loading the example with the viewer

Simply load the .60 file with the viewer application

cargo run --release --bin viewer -- examples/printerdemo/ui/printerdemo.60

Running the Rust Examples

You can run the examples either by going into the rust sub-folder and use cargo run, for example:

cd examples/printerdemo/rust
cargo run --release

or you can run them from anywhere in the Cargo workspace by name:

cargo run --release --bin printerdemo

Running the C++ Examples

The C++ API comes with a CMake integration, which needs to be built first:

cargo xtask cmake

This creates CMake configuration files in the target/debug folder (or target/release if you run cargo xtask cmake --release).

Then, from another directory, you can run cmake in the cpp folder of an example:

cd examples/printerdemo/cpp
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=../../../../target/debug/ ..
cmake --build .
./printerdemo
