gloss package:essence-of-live-coding-gloss

Stores the time passed since the last tick

Stores all Events that arrived since the last tick

Write True here to stop the gloss thread

Will create a handle for communication with the gloss thread, and start gloss.

Stores the next Picture to be painted

Given a cell in the gloss monad PictureM, start the gloss backend and connect the cell to it. This introduces Handles containing the gloss background thread, which need to be taken care of by calling runHandlingState or a similar function. The resulting cell never blocks, but returns Nothing if there currently is no gloss tick.

In a Handle, store a separate thread where the gloss main loop is executed, and several concurrent variables to communicate with it.

Collect all settings that the gloss backend requires. Taken from rhine-gloss.

The concurrent variables needed to communicate with the gloss thread.

General purpose live coding framework - Gloss backend essence-of-live-coding is a general purpose and type safe live coding framework. You can run programs in it, and edit, recompile and reload them while they're running. Internally, the state of the live program is automatically migrated when performing hot code swap. The library also offers an easy to use FRP interface. It is parametrized by its side effects, separates data flow cleanly from control flow, and allows to develop live programs from reusable, modular components. There are also useful utilities for debugging and quickchecking. This package contains a backend for Gloss (http:/gloss.ouroborus.net).
